00:00:07.491 --> 00:00:08.192
Pickle Pros.

00:00:08.192 --> 00:00:09.255
We are here in the house.

00:00:09.255 --> 00:00:11.207
Special episode of who you Got.

00:00:11.207 --> 00:00:16.932
Diego is out with his boys celebrating their championship for their conference.

00:00:16.932 --> 00:00:24.820
He's going to join us a little later, but really excited to have him join us and give us his insight.

00:00:24.820 --> 00:00:30.204
He went 14-0 this past week with his picks man, so that's not too bad.

00:00:32.228 --> 00:00:32.810
I'm defeated.

00:00:32.810 --> 00:00:33.912
I mean that's kind of crazy.

00:00:33.912 --> 00:00:36.539
I'm just saying that's pretty crazy.

00:00:37.140 --> 00:00:42.851
And of course Desmond Clark, on cue, said, because Des went, he went 14-2.

00:00:42.851 --> 00:00:43.893
That was his best.

00:00:43.893 --> 00:00:46.902
He was bragging about how that was the best week ever.

00:00:46.902 --> 00:00:49.207
Right, pick them pro history 14 and 2.

00:00:49.207 --> 00:00:57.328
So when Diego went 14 and 0, he was like, oh, congratulations on tying my what I did.

00:00:57.328 --> 00:01:00.573
Like, oh really, come on, come on, dez, anyway.

00:01:00.573 --> 00:01:02.963
But uh, what's up Josh, what's up Silas?

00:01:02.963 --> 00:01:04.427
Thank you guys for checking us out.

00:01:04.447 --> 00:01:05.891
Man, we got a fire show today.

00:01:05.891 --> 00:01:07.325
We're going to talk about NFL.

00:01:07.325 --> 00:01:13.864
We've got to talk about Devontae Adams going to the Jets have to hit that.

00:01:13.864 --> 00:01:16.868
We've got Amari Cooper going to the Buffalo Bills.

00:01:16.868 --> 00:01:17.905
We have to talk about that.

00:01:17.905 --> 00:01:20.108
Does this mean they're Super Bowl bound?

00:01:20.460 --> 00:01:22.569
We're going to pick all the Week 7 games.

00:01:22.569 --> 00:01:24.305
Okay, we're going to pick all the week seven games.

00:01:24.305 --> 00:01:25.509
Okay, we've got mlb playoffs.

00:01:25.509 --> 00:01:26.632
We got to talk about that.

00:01:26.632 --> 00:01:30.468
We've got brandon bean who's going to join us and talk about, uh, baseball.

00:01:30.468 --> 00:01:37.731
We've got nba, wba and then, of course, we're going to end like we did last week uh, with the generational debates on the music tip.

00:01:37.731 --> 00:01:39.322
That was really cool.

00:01:39.322 --> 00:01:43.929
So last week we uh gave our top five five rappers of all time.

00:01:43.929 --> 00:01:48.215
This week we're going top five producers, hip-hop producers.

00:01:48.215 --> 00:01:49.703
That's going to be pretty good.

00:01:49.703 --> 00:01:50.746
Excited for that.

00:01:50.746 --> 00:01:53.245
Yeah, yeah, we're very excited for that.

00:01:53.245 --> 00:01:56.009
Thank you everybody for checking us out.

00:01:56.009 --> 00:01:58.548
Let's dive right into the NFL news.

00:01:58.548 --> 00:02:00.786
Man, let's go to the big trade.

00:02:00.786 --> 00:02:01.668
This happened.

00:02:01.668 --> 00:02:06.322
We had two big moves, but let's start with davante adams to the jets chris.

00:02:06.703 --> 00:02:13.122
Uh, man, give us your take on this one so obviously you're adding one of the best wide receivers in the nfl.

00:02:13.122 --> 00:02:23.526
He's basically a rogers best friend, you know, if you saw the reveal on mcafee show where davante just kind of snuck up out of the corner which is like hey guys, I'm here, it's it was.

00:02:23.826 --> 00:02:36.588
It was really cool to see, but I don't know how much this elevates the jets to like a contender status because again, they're already two and four in a division with a very good team who also made a trade.

00:02:36.588 --> 00:02:42.567
Now do I think they'll drastically improve and possibly be on the bubble for like a wild card spot?

00:02:42.567 --> 00:02:53.685
Yes, but I don't know how much this immediately makes them like contenders or like in the super bowl discussion I think davante definitely elevates the wide receiver room.

00:02:54.006 --> 00:02:56.719
You immediately get one of the best duos with him and garrett wilson.

00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:58.282
I don't know what they're doing.

00:02:58.282 --> 00:03:05.395
Mike williams they're shopping him around but then I think a core of Adams, wilson and Lazard it'll be good.

00:03:05.395 --> 00:03:16.372
Now I do think Wilson's targets might go down significantly and it just seemed like him and Aaron were getting on the same, about to get on the same page.

00:03:16.372 --> 00:03:18.247
But I don't know.

00:03:18.247 --> 00:03:22.371
I feel like Aaron is doing this whole last dance thing where he's like I don't want my.

00:03:22.371 --> 00:03:27.806
And he did it with the Packers, where you saw that he didn't want to wait for these young receivers to develop.

00:03:27.806 --> 00:03:36.703
But then you see how the Packers receivers have developed with Jordan Love and how special like it seems like they have a different guy every week turning up for them.

00:03:36.703 --> 00:03:38.304
So it's like I don't know.

00:03:38.304 --> 00:03:39.145
I feel like Aaron.

00:03:39.145 --> 00:03:42.168
In this case he's like hey, like, hey, listen, I'm 40.

00:03:42.168 --> 00:03:45.730
Let me just go with Old Faithful and Devontae and let's just see what happens.

00:03:45.871 --> 00:03:48.473
So I'm excited to see Devontae in New York.

00:03:48.473 --> 00:03:49.332
I hope he does well.

00:03:49.332 --> 00:03:57.826
He's one of my favorite players, but I do think this just makes them a wild card team, not so much a Super Bowl contender.

00:03:57.867 --> 00:04:03.469
Yeah, yeah, I agree it makes them a wild card team.

00:04:03.469 --> 00:04:06.098
I think this specifically gets them to 11 wins.

00:04:06.098 --> 00:04:10.408
I've got them at 11, which, again, you look at it right now I believe they're two and four, so that is a big jump.

00:04:10.408 --> 00:04:16.851
I looked at their schedule, kind of broke it down and I don't think they've got a pretty favorable schedule.

00:04:16.851 --> 00:04:25.771
They've got the bills twice, which is going to be tough, but for the most part they have a pretty, pretty favorable schedule as they finish the season out.

00:04:25.771 --> 00:04:27.927
But I think Devontae gives them a big boost.

00:04:27.927 --> 00:04:29.425
The defense was already playing well.

00:04:29.425 --> 00:04:31.125
Devontae gives them a boost.

00:04:31.125 --> 00:04:42.795
Garrett Wilson yeah, this will definitely impact him, but this will give them the boost they need to beat a lot of the mediocre teams that they're going to play from now through the rest of the season.

00:04:42.795 --> 00:04:47.190
But I don't think they really go much past wild card second round.

00:04:47.190 --> 00:04:49.725
At most they won't get past that.

00:04:50.569 --> 00:04:53.009
Yeah, actually looking at their schedule.

00:04:53.009 --> 00:04:58.692
If you're just penciling the Texans and the Bills as like losses, the rest of the game is very winnable for the Jets.

00:04:59.062 --> 00:05:02.201
I was like oh okay, so we'll see.

00:05:02.483 --> 00:05:28.382
I just as Aaron Rodgers' biggest hater I'm not going to lie, I don't want them to do well, but that's nothing, and that's purely because I just feel like he's a bit of a diva in prima donna who, at this point, you're still like, hey, he's won all these MVPs and he's done stuff, but then, like we come playoff time and his teams have turned into pumpkins since they won the Super Bowl in 2010.

00:05:28.382 --> 00:05:32.543
It's like, oh, they play the 49ers and they fold, or they play this team and they fold really quickly.

00:05:32.543 --> 00:05:38.564
So it's like, what are we to expect of Aaron Rodgers, who doesn't look the same?

00:05:38.564 --> 00:05:40.341
And I don't know, I don't know.

00:05:40.341 --> 00:05:42.343
It's just Sorry, summer, it's just.

00:05:42.343 --> 00:05:45.047
You know, I'm not, I've never been a huge fan of it.

00:05:45.047 --> 00:05:45.627
I'm sorry.

00:05:46.127 --> 00:05:47.088
That's right, that's right.

00:05:47.088 --> 00:05:52.175
Shout out to Summer behind the scenes batting your comments and the questions.

00:05:52.175 --> 00:05:56.494
So shout out to you.

00:05:56.494 --> 00:06:00.396
But yeah, man, hey, you know, rodgers had everybody on his side.

00:06:00.396 --> 00:06:07.819
But as we've kind of gotten to know a little more about Rodgers, the tide has turned a bit over the last five or six years.

00:06:07.819 --> 00:06:12.148
But it's funny because I kind of feel the same about Devontae.

00:06:12.148 --> 00:06:22.247
It's like you never heard from Devontae until just last year, and now that we kind of hear more from him, I wonder how favorable he'll be in people's eyes.

00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:24.504
Yeah, and that's the thing With the receiver show.

00:06:24.504 --> 00:06:26.389
I mean, jimmy G was his quarterback.

00:06:26.389 --> 00:06:31.206
I'm not going to lie, I'd be pretty ticked off too, like Devontae, he good.

00:06:31.206 --> 00:06:37.127
But you see that all alpha-dominant receivers, they got the diva in them and that's okay.

00:06:37.127 --> 00:06:38.380
That's how I want my receiver.

00:06:38.380 --> 00:06:41.624
I don't want my receiver to be like oh no, I'm cool, let's play T-Bone.

00:06:41.624 --> 00:06:44.427
No, if I know I'm like that, I want the ball.

00:06:44.427 --> 00:06:51.233
So I don't mind that from Devontae, but your quarterback throwing Mike Williams under the bus, that wasn't cool.

00:06:51.252 --> 00:06:51.994
Yeah, that was bad.

00:06:52.233 --> 00:06:53.074
That was my issue.

00:06:53.074 --> 00:06:54.235
That was bad.

00:06:54.555 --> 00:06:55.216
That was bad.

00:06:55.216 --> 00:06:57.699
That's right, Brandon, as though you're saying don't hate on Rodgers.

00:06:57.699 --> 00:07:04.110
I know we know you're a few minutes, but yeah, that that was bad man.

00:07:04.110 --> 00:07:05.233
That that was really bad.

00:07:05.233 --> 00:07:12.324
All right, Well, we're going to move on to the next big trade, but before we do that, really excited about next week.

00:07:12.384 --> 00:07:18.055
So you know shows typically Saturdays, but we're going to be Friday here for the next week or two.

00:07:18.055 --> 00:07:19.642
Next week we're going to be Friday.

00:07:19.642 --> 00:07:24.115
We're going to be in a special podcast studio and we'll have a really cool setup.

00:07:24.115 --> 00:07:29.567
So we've got Joe that's going to be producing for us summer and everything.

00:07:29.567 --> 00:07:30.911
So we're going to take it a step up.

00:07:30.911 --> 00:07:37.641
So don't want to miss that should be about the same time and we're going to go very deep into, of course, week eight.

00:07:37.641 --> 00:07:45.528
But we'll also dive deep into NBA and give you all of our rankings 10 through one, tell you exactly where everybody's gonna finish.

00:07:46.069 --> 00:07:50.307
But let's move on to our next NFL news topic.

00:07:50.307 --> 00:07:57.283
Let's go to Amari Cooper, to the Bills one we just talked about the week before.

00:07:57.283 --> 00:07:59.668
Do the Buffalo Bills need a number one receiver?

00:07:59.668 --> 00:08:00.973
We were talking about that.

00:08:00.973 --> 00:08:04.629
We talked about how far they could go without having a number one.

00:08:04.629 --> 00:08:09.500
All of us.

00:08:09.500 --> 00:08:15.470
The general consensus was that they would make the playoffs but not really be able to compete for a Super Bowl without a number one receiver.

00:08:15.470 --> 00:08:23.028
So let me ask you this Do they have a number one with Amari, and how far do you think they go?

00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:25.206
I believe they still do.

00:08:25.206 --> 00:08:28.269
I still believe that he has a bunch left in the tank.

00:08:28.269 --> 00:08:38.768
I think again, the Cleveland situation Deshaun Watson playing abysmal at quarterback, like that's just like everybody's, like his stats are down this year, I'm like, yeah, deshaun's throwing up the ball.

00:08:38.768 --> 00:08:41.188
He's not even throwing up the ball, that's the issue.

00:08:41.188 --> 00:08:51.769
So I think that Amari, especially in this office with joe brady, who's very creative, I think he can get him some opportunities to succeed.

00:08:51.769 --> 00:08:54.543
I think he's still one of the best route runners in the league.

00:08:54.562 --> 00:09:06.168
I still think that he can and even still, even if he's not the number one, he's still a veteran who can like at least show the receivers what to do, how to prepare, how to, how to basically succeed.

00:09:06.168 --> 00:09:15.687
So I think this is I like this trade better for the bills than I do that weirdly the trade for the adam, trade for the jets.

00:09:15.687 --> 00:09:30.058
I really think that amari, just because I'm always restricted to his game and how he's kind of like he's always had his numbers but he's always like, kept it quiet, been like very humble, not a brash, outspoken guy, he's just like, look, I'm just here to ball, do my thing.

00:09:30.058 --> 00:09:45.513
And I really think that the bills need that because again, when I had a stephan dicks, somebody who's demanding the ball all the time, a bit more of a diva I and again it's like you get the route running in the skill but you don't get the divaloop aspect that you get with a separate mix, so I think it's a win-win.

00:09:45.779 --> 00:09:46.724
I think that's really good.

00:09:48.423 --> 00:09:49.366
Yeah, I agree, man.

00:09:49.366 --> 00:09:50.764
I think it's definitely a win-win.

00:09:50.764 --> 00:09:52.361
I think this was a great pickup.

00:09:52.361 --> 00:09:54.830
I mean, amari is a tactician.

00:09:54.830 --> 00:10:05.330
The knock against him, at least with the Cowboys, was that sometimes, especially on the road, he would disappear a bit times, especially on the road, he would disappear a bit.

00:10:05.330 --> 00:10:07.335
It seemed like at home he was a beast.

00:10:07.335 --> 00:10:14.804
Sometimes on the road he would disappear, but he still got that burst.

00:10:14.804 --> 00:10:15.826
He gives them another dimension.

00:10:15.846 --> 00:10:16.948
I like the Bills a lot even without Amari.

00:10:16.948 --> 00:10:21.485
I was a little higher on the Bills than others with the core that they have.

00:10:21.485 --> 00:10:25.011
I really like shakur and coleman and those guys.

00:10:25.011 --> 00:10:29.648
But now adding amari cooper to it, um, I think it gets them another gear.

00:10:29.648 --> 00:10:32.581
Man, I think this puts them into the super bowl.

00:10:32.581 --> 00:10:36.210
Uh, actually, I think this gives them a big dimension.

00:10:36.210 --> 00:10:38.461
I'm a bigger believer in their defense than most.

00:10:38.461 --> 00:10:45.307
Uh, when they get miller back, I think they're gonna be uh much stronger and they're gonna make a make, a strong run.

00:10:45.307 --> 00:10:48.350
So I'm high on the Buffalo Bills.

00:10:48.350 --> 00:10:50.647
I'm buying all the stock in Buffalo Bills.

00:10:50.647 --> 00:10:53.006
And great comments I love the comments that are coming through.

00:10:53.006 --> 00:10:58.711
Great comment by Brandon about the outrage when Mahomes gets the number one but the others don't.

00:10:58.711 --> 00:10:59.913
So keep those comments coming.

00:10:59.972 --> 00:11:00.333
I love that.

00:11:01.419 --> 00:11:10.188
I just think for me, with the whole Super Bowl thing, I still think it's either Kansas City or Baltimore.

00:11:10.188 --> 00:11:16.634
I hope I've always said this year I just want Buffalo or Baltimore to win the AFC.

00:11:16.634 --> 00:11:23.750
You know, if the Lions win the whole Super Bowl, the Lions winning the Super Bowl is what I personally want.

00:11:23.750 --> 00:11:28.701
But the whole thing with just seeing how the Bills was playing and Josh Allen he hasn't thrown a pick this year.

00:11:28.701 --> 00:11:32.306
Which miracle Like that's.

00:11:32.306 --> 00:11:35.767
So I was like hold on, why is nobody talking about this?

00:11:35.767 --> 00:11:37.365
This is important.

00:11:37.365 --> 00:11:39.365
Like three, six weeks he has not thrown a pick.

00:11:39.365 --> 00:11:45.426
So I think Josh Allen is definitely an MVP candidate.

00:11:45.426 --> 00:11:46.109
He's in that mode.

00:11:46.109 --> 00:11:54.490
But again, I still think and especially seeing what Lamar, derrick Henry are doing right now, that could be tough to beat to come playoff time.

00:11:54.490 --> 00:11:59.432
But I still think the Bills have the talent to make something shake in the AFC.

00:12:01.121 --> 00:12:01.884
How many wins?

00:12:01.884 --> 00:12:03.809
What do you think their record ends up being?

00:12:03.809 --> 00:12:04.802
Now they're 4-2.

00:12:04.802 --> 00:12:06.227
Right now, 4-2?

00:12:06.227 --> 00:12:08.187
I'm putting you on the spot with that.

00:12:08.187 --> 00:12:10.440
But, you haven't really seen.

00:12:11.984 --> 00:12:17.106
I mean last year they snuck in the playoffs without because we're not having the same amount of talent.

00:12:17.106 --> 00:12:20.870
So I'd say 12, maybe 12, 12-13.

00:12:20.870 --> 00:12:21.471
Yeah.

00:12:23.059 --> 00:12:27.351
I went through and I've got them at 13 and four that I actually went through and look.

00:12:27.351 --> 00:12:35.591
So yeah, yeah they, and if the schedule is pretty favorable, so I think they're by the Dolphins being down this year.

00:12:35.591 --> 00:12:38.408
Yeah, that helps a lot for sure.

00:12:38.408 --> 00:12:42.370
Then, of course, having New England helps a lot too.

00:12:42.370 --> 00:12:46.160
So those are two big boots there, all right.

00:12:46.160 --> 00:12:51.232
Yeah, well, let us know when do you guys have Buffalo going?

00:12:51.232 --> 00:12:52.726
Where do you have the Jets going?

00:12:52.726 --> 00:12:55.519
Give us the records, give us all that stuff.

00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:58.025
We want to know your, your take on that.

00:12:58.025 --> 00:13:01.153
And also great comment by Josh too as well.

00:13:01.153 --> 00:13:07.768
Yeah, all right, let's move on to our picks.

00:13:07.768 --> 00:13:11.063
Our week seven picks Brandon's got 12 and five for Bills.

00:13:11.063 --> 00:13:12.990
Okay, brandon, I like that.

00:13:14.807 --> 00:13:18.306
We have 15 games this week 15 games.

00:13:18.306 --> 00:13:20.461
Two teams are on by.

00:13:20.461 --> 00:13:23.967
I know the Cowboys are on by and there's another team on by.

00:13:23.967 --> 00:13:25.120
I can't think of who that team is.

00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:26.943
We had thursday night game.

00:13:26.943 --> 00:13:28.206
That game was awful?

00:13:28.206 --> 00:13:30.691
Um, we had the.

00:13:30.691 --> 00:13:32.673
The saints, uh, took a l?

00:13:32.673 --> 00:13:36.947
Um, but that game is not even worth really diving into.

00:13:36.947 --> 00:13:40.653
So we've got 15 games left, or 14 games left here.

00:13:40.653 --> 00:13:45.191
The thursday morning game is, uh, the patriots versus the jags.

00:13:45.191 --> 00:13:50.871
Again in london jaguars are at home, this time officially, although we know london is their true home.

00:13:50.871 --> 00:13:55.229
The jags are six point favorite against the patriots.

00:13:55.229 --> 00:13:56.972
Uh, who do you have in this one, chris?

00:13:59.749 --> 00:14:01.092
I mean you gotta have.

00:14:01.092 --> 00:14:08.152
It's one of those games where you gotta like, choose someone and honestly I say the patriots because of what Drake May has shown.

00:14:08.152 --> 00:14:14.730
The Jags just feel deflated at this point and it just, you know, I don't know what's going on.

00:14:14.730 --> 00:14:18.350
You have what everybody thinks is a great coach in Doug Peterson.

00:14:18.350 --> 00:14:23.644
You got, you know, trevor Lawrence, who you just paid all the money and he hasn't showed up.

00:14:23.644 --> 00:14:29.253
Brian Thomas Jr looks good, but other than that it's I don't know.

00:14:29.253 --> 00:14:31.628
So I got the Patriots in this one.

00:14:31.628 --> 00:14:41.027
Drake May continuing to show his improvement, because he actually had it under the radar like really, really interesting and good game versus Houston's defense last week.

00:14:41.027 --> 00:14:43.548
So I got the Patriots in this one.

00:14:44.149 --> 00:14:44.701
Okay, all right.

00:14:44.701 --> 00:14:45.471
Okay, you got the Patriots in this one.

00:14:45.471 --> 00:14:47.304
Okay, all right, you got the Patriots in this one.

00:14:47.304 --> 00:14:49.504
Wow, yeah, I've got the Jags.

00:14:49.504 --> 00:14:57.866
Myself, desmond Clark from the Bears, he's got his picks in and Diego, we all have the Jags.

00:14:57.866 --> 00:15:06.672
This is kind of one of our what we're calling no-brainers here, but you're going against the grain, you're going with the Patriots, the six-point underdog Patriots.

00:15:06.672 --> 00:15:13.745
So, man, man, if you put something on this and it hit, you'd be sitting pretty nice man.

00:15:14.085 --> 00:15:16.109
I'm pretty hey let's see it.

00:15:16.369 --> 00:15:19.634
All right, cool, cool.

00:15:19.634 --> 00:15:23.221
So you're going against the grain on this one, all right, well, let's go to the next one.

00:15:23.221 --> 00:15:27.485
We've got Seattle Seahawks traveling to Atlanta to play the Falcons.

00:15:27.485 --> 00:15:30.368
The Falcons are a three-point favorite at home.

00:15:30.368 --> 00:15:36.313
I think we all me, diego and Des all have the same team in this one.

00:15:36.313 --> 00:15:38.056
But who do you have in this one?

00:15:38.056 --> 00:15:38.155
I?

00:15:38.416 --> 00:15:39.037
have Atlanta.

00:15:39.037 --> 00:15:45.890
I just you know the Seahawks are really banged up Atlanta again versus you know, the team back here.

00:15:45.890 --> 00:15:49.269
They proved that they still got all that offensive power.

00:15:49.269 --> 00:15:52.089
They got Bichon and Tyler Algier going.

00:15:52.089 --> 00:15:58.107
So you know, I think they can see you riding that hot streak and yeah, and they win.

00:15:58.107 --> 00:15:59.972
Hmm, okay.

00:16:00.542 --> 00:16:03.022
I see Brandon, okay, so Brandon B.

00:16:03.022 --> 00:16:06.211
We see you say, okay, brandon's got the Falcons, so we all have the Falcons.

00:16:06.211 --> 00:16:11.543
We all believe that Brandon's 4-2 in the Pick'em Pros Fantasy League Not too bad.

00:16:11.543 --> 00:16:12.889
Brandon, you're doing pretty well.

00:16:12.889 --> 00:16:20.022
We'll see when it comes to the playoff time, because when it comes to playoffs, we know I'm going to close it out and win this thing.

00:16:20.062 --> 00:16:24.205
So, all you guys are just playing for second in the Pick'em Pro Fantasy League.

00:16:24.205 --> 00:16:26.025
But I tell you what?

00:16:26.025 --> 00:16:27.006
Then?

00:16:27.006 --> 00:16:30.109
We're going to take this thing up another notch, because this is Pick'em Pros.

00:16:30.109 --> 00:16:38.634
So there is the Sleeper app, which is a great app for picks and fantasy and all that type of stuff.

00:16:38.634 --> 00:16:40.174
What we're going to spin up?

00:16:40.174 --> 00:16:43.638
We're going to spin up a Pick'em Pros Sleeper pool.

00:16:43.638 --> 00:16:50.423
Ok, we'll picker pool, we'll pick'em pool.

00:16:50.423 --> 00:16:52.748
We're going to have a prize for the weekly winner of that.

00:16:52.768 --> 00:16:54.110

And what we'll do is we'll announce it on the next week's show.

00:17:21.111 --> 00:17:25.821
So that's something that we'll have recurring as we go, the next week's show.

00:17:25.821 --> 00:17:27.026
So that's something that we'll have recurring as we go.

00:17:27.026 --> 00:17:31.362
So give everybody a chance to compete a little more and get in on the picks and also pick against us and try to win a little something.

00:17:31.362 --> 00:17:34.781
So that's something we're going to put in here to sweeten the pot with Pick'em Pro.

00:17:34.781 --> 00:17:37.811
All right, so let's move on to the next one.

00:17:37.811 --> 00:17:41.663
Here We've got the Tennessee Titans at the Buffalo Bills.

00:17:41.663 --> 00:17:45.570
Wow, point favorite.

00:17:45.570 --> 00:17:48.605
Yeah, wow, you going against the grain man.

00:17:48.945 --> 00:17:49.930
Not at all, not at all.

00:17:49.930 --> 00:17:57.184
Let's go Bills, that's to say this might look worse than Detroit and Dallas.

00:17:57.184 --> 00:17:58.367
I'm not even going to lie.

00:17:58.448 --> 00:17:59.349
Yeah, okay.

00:17:59.811 --> 00:18:00.393
Don't be ugly.

00:18:01.260 --> 00:18:02.986
So you also have them covering the spread.

00:18:03.326 --> 00:18:09.064
Yes, for sure, woo, okay, yeah, john said Bills by 15.

00:18:09.064 --> 00:18:11.555
Nice, okay, yeah, man, I think.

00:18:11.555 --> 00:18:12.582
Bills for sure.

00:18:12.582 --> 00:18:17.365
We're all with the Bills and we all probably have them covering the spread.

00:18:17.365 --> 00:18:18.260
This is going to be a blood.

00:18:18.260 --> 00:18:26.048
They're at home and I don't think they've been at home for a while either, so they're going to be fired up and ready to go.

00:18:26.048 --> 00:18:28.387
Last time they were at home they looked really good.

00:18:28.387 --> 00:18:30.705
So, yeah, they're going to put on the show.

00:18:30.705 --> 00:18:31.670
And they've got Cooper.

00:18:31.670 --> 00:18:37.040
I don't know if Amari's going to play in this first one, but I think they'll be fired up and ready to go, so they're going to put on the show.

00:18:37.040 --> 00:18:40.863
All right, so nothing else to say as we go into that one.

00:18:40.863 --> 00:18:42.324
So let's go to the next one.

00:18:42.324 --> 00:18:47.086
Here We've got the Cincinnati Bengals traveling to Josh.

00:18:47.086 --> 00:18:53.211
Josh is Cleveland Browns, josh, one of our super subscribers here, going to his hometown.

00:18:53.211 --> 00:18:56.593
So the Bengals are five-and-a-half-point favorites.

00:18:56.593 --> 00:19:00.996
I think Dez Diego and myself are all aligned with the same team here.

00:19:00.996 --> 00:19:02.277
Who you got?

00:19:02.277 --> 00:19:02.877
Chris?

00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:07.602
Cincinnati Bengals it's's.

00:19:07.602 --> 00:19:08.364
You know they've gotten hot.

00:19:08.364 --> 00:19:10.670
I believe that you know they could have beat baltimore.

00:19:10.670 --> 00:19:11.672
They lost that one.

00:19:11.672 --> 00:19:15.965
They need a defensive battle, but they still beat the giants.

00:19:15.965 --> 00:19:26.253
I think this might be a closer defensive one, because the brown secondary always plays the bangles receivers very well, but I do believe the Bengals will pull it out late in the fourth quarter.

00:19:27.901 --> 00:19:30.809
Yeah, yeah, they do, man, I you know that's a great point.

00:19:30.809 --> 00:19:42.846
I feel that if they put Jamison and got just got that emotional boost, they might actually have a shot, because the Browns do play the Bengals very well, especially in Cleveland.

00:19:42.846 --> 00:19:44.875
So traditionally that that is a.

00:19:44.875 --> 00:19:45.356
It is a tough one.

00:19:45.356 --> 00:19:47.042
Traditionally, that is a tough one.

00:19:47.042 --> 00:19:49.109
Yeah, that's a good one.

00:19:49.109 --> 00:19:54.990
Josh said yeah, he thinks they will play Amari Cooper in that game.

00:19:54.990 --> 00:19:59.183
Next one we've got Texans.

00:19:59.183 --> 00:20:02.702
This should be a very fun one to watch.

00:20:02.702 --> 00:20:15.068
I believe this is also 1 o'clock on the whistle with the NFL, with the times on these games, but a lot of the big-time games are at 1, you know, and they're missing the mark on a lot of these times this year.

00:20:15.068 --> 00:20:19.090
But Houston Texas travel to Green Bay to play the Packers.

00:20:19.090 --> 00:20:22.390
The Packers are a two-and-a-half-point favorite at home.

00:20:22.390 --> 00:20:32.817
This is one where Desmond Clark, diego and myself all agree on one side.

00:20:32.837 --> 00:20:33.220
But who do you have?

00:20:33.220 --> 00:20:41.473
I think Houston wins this one and I do think that Jordan Love might have some issues versus that defense.

00:20:41.473 --> 00:20:45.750
I think he might throw a pick that kind of throws the game away.

00:20:45.750 --> 00:20:48.188
That might cost him the game a costly turnover.

00:20:48.188 --> 00:20:58.903
And I just, yeah, I have the Texans in a very close one, though I think it's going to be a shootout between two great quarterbacks, but there's one who's a bit turnover prone who concerns me a little.

00:20:58.903 --> 00:21:01.320
So I'm going to go with the Texans in this one.

00:21:01.882 --> 00:21:04.483
Okay, all right, you got the Texans on this one.

00:21:04.483 --> 00:21:08.188
So, yeah, ooh, brandon has the Texans as well.

00:21:08.188 --> 00:21:10.830
Nice, ooh, got to do a little something with this.

00:21:10.830 --> 00:21:12.231
Josh has the Texans also.

00:21:12.231 --> 00:21:15.355
So, myself, diego and Dez, we all have the Packers.

00:21:15.355 --> 00:21:21.566
Wow, we all have the Packers.

00:21:21.566 --> 00:21:29.105
This was something's up, because Dez is the ultimate Packer hater, being a Chicago Bear, but we all have the Packers.

00:21:29.105 --> 00:21:31.628
A lot of that's probably because the Packers are at home.

00:21:31.628 --> 00:21:35.963
They've looked good there, and CJ and the Texans, they just haven't.

00:21:35.963 --> 00:21:38.132
I feel like something's been missing.

00:21:38.132 --> 00:21:40.209
They haven't truly been.

00:21:40.209 --> 00:21:43.797
You know what we thought they would be this year.

00:21:43.797 --> 00:21:48.894
Yeah, that's got us a little shaky on this one.

00:21:48.994 --> 00:21:49.355
I don't know.

00:21:49.355 --> 00:22:06.955
I feel like, eventually, I feel like this might be the week where the Texans finally are like okay, put up or shut up at this point, because I feel like last week, versus the patriots, it was like okay, joe, we got joe mixon back, acclimated, we're, we're getting ourselves together.

00:22:06.955 --> 00:22:17.612
I still don't have nico collins back, so that's still, that's still a bit of an issue, but I do believe stefan and tank are gonna turn up like I just you know I'll find this for too.

00:22:17.712 --> 00:22:20.356
So that's another reason why I'm picking the Texans.

00:22:20.356 --> 00:22:31.153
But I do think that I think one of these weeks is going to be and I think it's this week where they're like okay, let's show why they call us Super Bowl contenders.

00:22:31.153 --> 00:22:34.153
So I really think they got this.

00:22:34.795 --> 00:22:36.865
Nice and shout-out to Athletes by Design.

00:22:36.865 --> 00:22:39.855
I saw they put a comment in and picked Houston.

00:22:39.855 --> 00:22:43.930
So yeah, yeah, shout yeah, shout out, shout out to you.

00:22:43.930 --> 00:22:45.816
Oh, athlete pride, I mean athlete pride, shout out to you.

00:22:45.816 --> 00:22:46.838
Texas went easy.

00:22:46.838 --> 00:22:53.694
So yeah, I don't know, man, um, you know, especially with uh nico being out, I think that uh hurts.

00:22:53.694 --> 00:22:57.490
And now digs, digs is the man, digs is a great receiver.

00:22:57.490 --> 00:23:02.806
Uh, tank dale, I think he's still, you know, trying to, you know, kind of working his way back.

00:23:02.806 --> 00:23:11.366
But uh, without nico, I think that also for for for us, tilts it over to the, uh, the, the packers.

00:23:11.366 --> 00:23:12.911
But this would be here going.

00:23:12.911 --> 00:23:17.625
You see, the, the um, it's not much of a uh spread here by being.

00:23:17.625 --> 00:23:19.810
So we'll see there.

00:23:19.810 --> 00:23:22.116
All right, love the love, the comments on that one.

00:23:22.136 --> 00:23:23.967
All right, the next game.

00:23:23.967 --> 00:23:27.915
This is actually an island game for diego, so diego's on the island.

00:23:27.915 --> 00:23:30.089
For this one, we've got the miami dolphins.

00:23:30.089 --> 00:23:34.142
At the indianapolis colts, uh, indy is favored by three.

00:23:34.142 --> 00:23:41.594
That showed you just how my, how far the dolphins have fallen without Tua.

00:23:41.594 --> 00:23:47.488
They are definitely struggling, although they did pull out the win last week or the week before the last time they played.

00:23:47.488 --> 00:23:48.752
They pulled out the win.

00:23:48.752 --> 00:23:53.633
Diego got that one over Dez and myself, but who do you have in this one, chris?

00:23:56.228 --> 00:23:57.132
I would say the Colts.

00:23:57.132 --> 00:24:02.705
It's Flacco or Richardson starting, though, because that kind of might sway me.

00:24:02.705 --> 00:24:13.770
But I think that Flacco has kind of been like a steady ship at this point and provides a veteran presence, and the one thing I'm wondering is why isn't he on an actual team?

00:24:13.770 --> 00:24:18.051
He's just, you know, hey, I'm the relegated back if it gets hot.

00:24:18.051 --> 00:24:20.965
This is cool, but I just I don't know.

00:24:20.965 --> 00:24:26.478
I think if Flacco keeps his say, dolphins defense has left much to be desired.

00:24:26.478 --> 00:24:32.613
And yeah, I don't know, I don't think the Dolphins live all together.

00:24:32.613 --> 00:24:33.426
I feel like Tua.

00:24:33.426 --> 00:24:38.632
We really underestimated how much of a heartbeat he is for that team and for that organization.

00:24:38.632 --> 00:24:40.310
So I got the Colts in this one.

00:24:40.853 --> 00:24:44.192
Okay, all right, yeah, everybody's got the Colts in this one.

00:24:44.192 --> 00:24:45.115
All right, yeah, yeah.

00:24:45.115 --> 00:24:47.791
So back to the athlete.

00:24:47.791 --> 00:24:53.550
Prod said the Tank Dell will shine as number two now with Nico being out.

00:24:54.086 --> 00:24:57.834
So that'll be interesting to see if he can shine as a number two.

00:24:57.834 --> 00:25:00.073
So we will definitely see about that.

00:25:00.073 --> 00:25:05.510
But yeah, as far as this game, man Diego has Indy, so Diego's with you guys.

00:25:05.510 --> 00:25:07.010
He has the Colts and they're the favorite.

00:25:07.010 --> 00:25:12.409
Dez and I, we both have the Dolphins, we've got Miami and a lot of that is.

00:25:12.849 --> 00:25:30.592
I think this is a desperation game for them If they I mean, I don't think any of us have them doing much without Tua, I don't think any of us have them doing much without Tua but I think the Colts are a beatable opponent for them.

00:25:30.592 --> 00:25:32.944
To really lay everything out, I think Daniels is going to have some great schemes in this game.

00:25:32.944 --> 00:25:36.295
Look for a big game for Mostert to come in.

00:25:36.295 --> 00:25:42.657
And I've got the Dolphins and Dez has the Dolphins in an update and upset here.

00:25:42.657 --> 00:25:43.788
So we've got.

00:25:43.788 --> 00:25:45.875
We've got here for this one.

00:25:45.875 --> 00:26:00.121
So again, hit us up, dm us on IG the Pick'em Pros and we will send you a link to our Pick'em Pros Pick'em group where you can pick all the games here.

The winner is going to get a prize.

00:26:06.290 --> 00:26:08.732
I'm thinking what do you think is a good prize.

00:26:08.732 --> 00:26:08.993
Man.

00:26:08.993 --> 00:26:12.547
You think, what should we do like $100 Nike gift card?

00:26:12.547 --> 00:26:14.446
That sound good, that'd be solid.

00:26:14.867 --> 00:26:15.488
That'd be solid.

00:26:15.948 --> 00:26:17.868
All right, okay, that'll be solid.

00:26:17.868 --> 00:26:18.388
So we'll do.

00:26:18.388 --> 00:26:22.490
On Pick'em Pros, we'll do a hundred dollar Nike gift card for this very first one.

00:26:22.490 --> 00:26:32.195
So DM us on IG at the Pick'em Pros Say, hey, I want to get in the pool, all right, and we'll send you the link to get in.

00:26:32.195 --> 00:26:40.799
That You've got to fill all your picks out before the first game on Sunday and then we'll announce that winner each week and that's something that we'll keep going.

00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:43.580
We'll have different prizes, so we'll change the prize around.

00:26:44.101 --> 00:26:48.623
All right, I know Des actually said this will be for the people in Chicago.

00:26:48.623 --> 00:26:55.160
He wants to throw a prize out there for the folks in Chicago to actually be able to go to a game with them.

00:26:55.160 --> 00:26:55.784
Go to a bear game.

00:26:55.784 --> 00:26:59.314
That would be pretty hot right there.

00:26:59.314 --> 00:27:06.019
Yeah, so for our Chicago fans, you want to stay tuned because at some point we're going to drop that as a surprise.

00:27:06.019 --> 00:27:11.265
So that's going to be really cool, All right, okay, ooh, this is a big one right here, man.

00:27:11.265 --> 00:27:16.174
Oh my gosh, the Detroit Lions go to Minnesota to play the Vikings.

00:27:16.174 --> 00:27:19.406
The Vikings are a one-and-a-half point favorite at home.

00:27:19.406 --> 00:27:23.990
Lions looked great against the Cowboys last week, had a big blowout.

00:27:23.990 --> 00:27:30.673
Lost Hutchinson though big break there with his leg.

00:27:30.673 --> 00:27:38.479
But man, and actually Dez Diego and myself all have one team in this one.

00:27:38.479 --> 00:27:40.299
But who do you have, chris?

00:27:40.299 --> 00:27:41.701
Okay.

00:27:41.901 --> 00:27:49.711
I'm thinking about two things One, the Hutchinson loss and the fact that Justin Jefferson always turns up versus these DBs.

00:27:49.711 --> 00:27:53.770
So that's like the one thing that's giving me pause.

00:27:53.770 --> 00:28:11.821
But I do think, weirdly, the Lions get the upset because, one, I believe it's the rallying around Hutch and the injury, and two, I've never seen maybe this is because I'm young, but I've never seen a Detroit team come out with that much fury passion.

00:28:11.821 --> 00:28:16.016
I'm like, oh no, we're going to humiliate these dudes that they have versus the Cowboys.

00:28:16.016 --> 00:28:26.614
And while I do believe the Vikings have a very capable defense to slow them down, I think that it might come down to a late drive and Jared Goff gets them to win so, or a field goal.

00:28:26.614 --> 00:28:30.616
So I think this is going to be like one of the game-winner-by-field-goal type games.

00:28:30.616 --> 00:28:31.637
I think the Lions get it.

00:28:32.259 --> 00:28:34.000
Yeah, yeah, we're all aligned.

00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:36.122
So, athlete pride, brandon, all of us.

00:28:36.122 --> 00:28:42.346
Yeah, we all have the Lions in this one.

00:28:42.346 --> 00:28:43.470
I think it's just time for Minnesota to lose.

00:28:43.470 --> 00:28:47.317
You know, I think a lot of it is because we all thought they would be at the bottom of the division.

00:28:47.317 --> 00:28:48.770
They've shocked a lot of people.

00:28:48.924 --> 00:28:51.294
Okay, sam Darnold is he really for real?

00:28:51.294 --> 00:28:54.695
You know, I think Anthony Pratt said this is the week he gets exposed.

00:28:54.695 --> 00:28:56.372
So they've had some big wins.

00:28:56.372 --> 00:28:59.953
I mean they've had some legit wins, so it definitely is not a fluke.

00:28:59.953 --> 00:29:01.436
I mean, the Vikings are good.

00:29:01.436 --> 00:29:10.115
They beat the Packers in Green Bay, you know, have looked really good, but I think this is the week where they get that loss.

00:29:10.115 --> 00:29:13.375
And Josh also, yeah, has the Lions 31-28.

00:29:13.375 --> 00:29:19.010
So, yeah, I think, even without Hutch, I think they rally around him and the Lions come out.

00:29:19.010 --> 00:29:20.351
This is a divisional game.

00:29:20.351 --> 00:29:24.244
I think they come out, pull out all the stops and try to get this thing.

00:29:24.244 --> 00:29:33.134
The Lions want to have the best record, have that home field, because Ford Field is a great place to play.

00:29:33.134 --> 00:29:38.525
They would love to have that home field throughout the playoffs if possible, and try to ride that to the Super Bowl.

00:29:38.525 --> 00:29:42.510
So they're going to pull everything out and go for this one big time.

00:29:42.510 --> 00:29:48.212
All right, so looking forward to that one, but again, that's another 1 o'clock special for us.

00:29:50.929 --> 00:29:51.048
NFL.

00:29:51.048 --> 00:29:52.433
We got to do something.

00:29:52.433 --> 00:29:54.291
We got to talk to these schedule makers.

00:29:54.291 --> 00:29:55.989
They got to do better.

00:29:57.192 --> 00:29:58.635
Exactly All right.

00:29:58.635 --> 00:30:05.049
Next game we've got the philadelphia eagles traveling to met life stadium to play the giants.

00:30:05.049 --> 00:30:07.375
The eagles are a three-point favorite.

00:30:07.375 --> 00:30:10.207
I am actually on an island with this one.

00:30:10.207 --> 00:30:12.973
Uh but uh between des and diego.

00:30:12.973 --> 00:30:15.057
But, chris, who do you have in this one man?

00:30:15.806 --> 00:30:26.592
really I think this is gonna be close because of the Giants' defense, and the Eagles played down to a much worse team in the Browns last week where they had to squeak out a win.

00:30:26.592 --> 00:30:33.816
So I have the Eagles in a close one, though I believe they're still more talented at the key positions.

00:30:33.816 --> 00:30:37.134
But I do believe the Giants are going to make this close.

00:30:37.134 --> 00:30:40.317
I believe that their defense is going gonna.

00:30:40.317 --> 00:30:49.949
First, maybe a couple jalen hurts turnovers and it gets a little dicey coming the fourth, but that's when jalen likes to show up, so you know yeah, that's true.

00:30:50.690 --> 00:30:52.153
Yeah, yeah, good point.

00:30:52.153 --> 00:31:04.372
Okay, josh has eagles, then brandon has eagles, uh, diego has eagles, des has eagles, although when Dez sent his picks in it showed the Giants, but he said that was a mistake.

00:31:04.372 --> 00:31:06.853
So he's corrected it and said he has the Eagles.

00:31:06.853 --> 00:31:11.976
He would never pick the Giants in this, but I'm actually going with the Giants in this one.

00:31:11.976 --> 00:31:13.913
I think they pulled this out.

00:31:13.913 --> 00:31:15.852
I like how the Giants are looking.

00:31:15.872 --> 00:31:20.951
Man Neighbors is back, so, like Josh said, that's good for the Giants.

00:31:20.951 --> 00:31:22.234
Um neighbors is back.

00:31:22.234 --> 00:31:24.520
So, like Josh said, that's good for the giants.

00:31:24.520 --> 00:31:30.546
And uh, daniel Jones not playing too bad.

00:31:30.546 --> 00:31:31.548
And the Eagles aren't playing all that Well.

00:31:31.548 --> 00:31:33.113
They have still have not had that dominating good performance.

00:31:33.113 --> 00:31:34.257
They have not looked great this year.

00:31:34.257 --> 00:31:39.173
Eagles have just been able to limp by because of who they played so far this year.

00:31:39.173 --> 00:31:45.693
But I think this is the perfect and the giants always play the Eagles well, even last year when the Giants were really terrible.

00:31:45.693 --> 00:31:51.251
And you know, earlier in the season, when the Eagles were playing better, the Giants would steal one off of them.

00:31:51.251 --> 00:31:53.753
So I'm going with the upset on this one.

00:31:53.753 --> 00:31:56.733
I've got the Giants and this is the game.

00:31:56.733 --> 00:32:03.730
This is the one that's going to get me the chain and get me back into the winning column and make my way back into this thing.

00:32:04.192 --> 00:32:07.390
Let's see, let's see.

00:32:07.390 --> 00:32:08.373
I don't know.

00:32:08.373 --> 00:32:12.414
Everybody else is like hey man, we're going to see.

00:32:14.569 --> 00:32:15.231
We're going to see.

00:32:15.231 --> 00:32:18.849
We're going to see Baseball update.

00:32:18.849 --> 00:32:23.207
Although the Mets scored another one, dodgers are kind of climbing back in it.

00:32:23.207 --> 00:32:25.832
So, uh, we'll see if they can close this out.

00:32:25.832 --> 00:32:27.375
It was 10-2.

00:32:27.375 --> 00:32:30.467
Uh, they cut it to 10, it was 10-6.

00:32:30.467 --> 00:32:31.409
Now it's 11-6.

00:32:31.409 --> 00:32:33.051
So we're gonna talk baseball.

00:32:33.051 --> 00:32:35.416
Uh, next here, brandon.

00:32:35.416 --> 00:32:39.429
But uh, they're starting to make that a little bit of a little bit of a game.

00:32:39.429 --> 00:32:44.375
All right, so let's move on to the next football game here.

00:32:44.375 --> 00:32:47.059
We've got a few more to give our official picks on.

00:32:47.059 --> 00:32:49.608
We've got the Las Vegas Raiders.

00:32:49.608 --> 00:32:54.898
The Vontae Adamless Raiders are going to LA to play the Rams.

00:32:54.898 --> 00:32:57.289
Rams are a seven point favorite.

00:32:57.289 --> 00:32:59.576
Wow, that's saying a lot.

00:32:59.576 --> 00:33:05.126
I believe we all are on the same page on this one, des Diego and myself.

00:33:05.126 --> 00:33:06.971
Chris, who do you have in this one man?

00:33:07.636 --> 00:33:12.313
At the Rams and also Max Crosby has one of those Devontae Adams oh my ankle injuries.

00:33:12.313 --> 00:33:18.946
So, yeah, yeah, it might be curtains for the Raiders season after this.

00:33:18.946 --> 00:33:19.790
I'm not going to lie.

00:33:19.790 --> 00:33:22.828
Yeah, I hate to see.

00:33:22.828 --> 00:33:27.717
I was hoping like I had Antonio Pierce as a dark horse for Coach of the Year.

00:33:27.717 --> 00:33:30.073
That looks like that's not happening.

00:33:30.073 --> 00:33:40.690
So you know, yeah, I got the Rams winning this one, wow wow, yeah, yeah, yeah, I um you man, I it.

00:33:41.050 --> 00:33:44.696
It doesn't look good for the coach of the Raiders.

00:33:44.696 --> 00:33:51.236
Um, this this year and I I picked the Raiders to finish last in the division this year.

00:33:51.236 --> 00:33:53.010
It looks like that's definitely going to happen.

00:33:53.010 --> 00:33:55.332
Uh, rams, win this one for sure.

00:33:55.332 --> 00:34:09.914
That team is in turmoil and, yeah, if Crosby is uh, is, uh, you know, not playing, that says a whole lot, because crosby is a true warrior and trooper and, uh, you know, he's always trying to be out there.

00:34:10.094 --> 00:34:20.731
So yeah, he said, um, something about like, hey, wherever I go, you know I'm gonna give a hundred percent, and that, and again he was this whole off.

00:34:20.731 --> 00:34:22.789
It was a whole like wait here until I die.

00:34:22.789 --> 00:34:23.992
You know we're down.

00:34:23.992 --> 00:34:30.231
With Devontae being gone, I feel like you know it's right on the wall and he wants to win.

00:34:30.231 --> 00:34:32.653
Like that's really what he wants at this point.

00:34:32.653 --> 00:34:41.739
Weirdly enough, I want Detroit to get him, just so, you know we get to see him as a good pass rusher to kind of offset the loss of Aiden Hutchinson.

00:34:41.739 --> 00:34:46.976
And if Detroit pays him when Aiden comes back, you know that would be a really cool pass rushing deal.

00:34:46.976 --> 00:34:49.911
So we'll see.

00:34:49.911 --> 00:34:53.318
We'll see how this goes All right, We'll see how it goes.

00:34:53.782 --> 00:34:58.945
Okay, We've got about five more here to touch on man.

00:34:58.945 --> 00:35:01.574
We've got your Carolina Panthers.

00:35:01.574 --> 00:35:04.211
Got the banner there in the background repping Carolina.

00:35:04.211 --> 00:35:06.768
We definitely know who you're going with on this one.

00:35:06.768 --> 00:35:10.494
Panthers travels to Washington to play the Commanders.

00:35:10.494 --> 00:35:15.851
Washington is a whopping eight-point favorite, but who cares about the line?

00:35:15.851 --> 00:35:17.469
Vegas is not always right.

00:35:17.469 --> 00:35:22.210
Go ahead and tell us how bad the Panthers are going to beat the Commanders this week, Chris.

00:35:22.672 --> 00:35:24.791
Oh no, the Panthers are going to lose by like at least 20.

00:35:24.791 --> 00:35:26.594
That's nope.

00:35:26.594 --> 00:35:29.652
I've lost all aspersions on this season.

00:35:29.652 --> 00:35:32.432
You know Andy Dalton's going to look good for about two drives.

00:35:32.432 --> 00:35:36.128
Throw a dumb pick, we don't get the ball to Chuba Hubbard and then we're going to lose.

00:35:36.128 --> 00:35:41.313
So you know, I'll calmly say it is over it's.

00:35:41.313 --> 00:35:44.277
You know, let's start the drafts.

00:35:44.277 --> 00:35:46.539
I saw some interesting trade ideas.

00:35:46.539 --> 00:35:50.007
Let's not For me.

00:35:50.007 --> 00:35:54.710
I'm saying, let's not trade Deontay Johnson.

00:35:54.710 --> 00:35:57.753
Everybody else though, you know, don't trade Deontay Johnson or Chuba.

00:35:57.753 --> 00:35:58.853
No, trade the out there, out to the tuba.

00:35:58.853 --> 00:36:00.355
But hey, if you want to, let go.

00:36:00.355 --> 00:36:05.798
If you want to let who is it?

00:36:05.798 --> 00:36:06.559
Mingo walk.

00:36:06.559 --> 00:36:09.422
If you want to let Bryce walk, let him walk.

00:36:09.422 --> 00:36:13.507
I just, I don't know Jaden's going to play.

00:36:13.507 --> 00:36:20.396
Well, I mean, he already he turned up versus the Ravens defense and they already have like way better quality starters on their side of the ball than we do.

00:36:20.396 --> 00:36:21.992
So we're losing by at least 20.

00:36:21.992 --> 00:36:23.831
I'm not too worried.

00:36:23.831 --> 00:36:25.309
That game will not be put on.

00:36:25.992 --> 00:36:28.391
Yeah, yeah, and let's keep the question up.

00:36:28.391 --> 00:36:42.527
I want to get to this question here in a second, but before we address that, as far as this game goes, yeah, so Dez, diego and myself, diego being the ultimate Panther homer he also has a commander, so we all have the commanders in this one.

00:36:42.527 --> 00:36:48.547
I think the delusion is over with the Panther fans, although I like how the offense is looking.

00:36:48.547 --> 00:36:50.972
I mean, the offense is looking good.

00:36:50.972 --> 00:36:56.434
We just have to get that you know defensive side of the ball together and be able to make some stops.

00:36:56.434 --> 00:37:02.858
So if they can build on that, I love how you know quarterback is looking and the offensive side of the ball.

00:37:02.858 --> 00:37:05.693
We just have to get the defensive side there.

00:37:05.693 --> 00:37:12.413
But Athlete Prod is asking us would you rather have Williams or Daniels for your future?

00:37:15.498 --> 00:37:22.411
Okay, it's way too early to call, but are we talking like on our specific teams or like on their teams for the future?

00:37:22.411 --> 00:37:23.809
Because that's a different question.

00:37:24.586 --> 00:37:25.268
And I mean.

00:37:25.449 --> 00:37:26.172
I think Jaden.

00:37:28.146 --> 00:37:36.715
Listen, but if we're talking about their specific teams with the talent that they have, I like Caleb with the more skilled position talent that he has.

00:37:36.936 --> 00:37:37.456
Yeah.

00:37:38.304 --> 00:37:59.811
But I do think Jaden has already proven how special he is and but again, I I think it might be one of those lamar situation where it's like he becomes like a one-of-one type person and then caleb is like, oh yeah, like he's very good and he's, you know, he works in this in his office yeah, yeah, that that's a tough, that's a great question.

00:38:00.793 --> 00:38:09.273
You know, a couple weeks ago I think that probably would have been Daniels hands down for most people, but now Williams is starting to bring that up.

00:38:09.273 --> 00:38:10.277
Ok, so on your team.

00:38:10.277 --> 00:38:21.813
So yeah, for the Panthers, for the way the Panthers are constructed, I'd say Caleb, I think he, you know, I think we see that with gosh.

00:38:21.813 --> 00:38:25.717
No, our quarterback, who's on the bench now?

00:38:25.717 --> 00:38:26.137
Bryce?

00:38:26.159 --> 00:38:26.398
Young.

00:38:26.619 --> 00:38:28.001
I can't think of his name, bryce Young.

00:38:28.001 --> 00:38:30.994
Sorry, see, I want to forget right.

00:38:30.994 --> 00:38:36.036
But yeah, for Bryce Young, we see that the offense just doesn't really fit him.

00:38:36.036 --> 00:38:38.974
I think Bryce Young would really look good in Miami with that offense.

00:38:38.974 --> 00:38:40.646
So I think Bryce Young just needs to good in Miami with that offense.

00:38:40.646 --> 00:38:42.302
So I think Bryce Young just needs to be in the right system.

00:38:42.302 --> 00:38:47.293
But as overall, I would still probably take Williams.

00:38:47.293 --> 00:38:49.887
I like what I'm seeing from him now.

00:38:49.887 --> 00:38:52.152
He's looking better and better.

00:38:52.152 --> 00:38:57.927
I think he has more raw dropback quarterback talent.

00:38:57.927 --> 00:39:01.034
Again, daniels is a beast.

00:39:01.034 --> 00:39:02.016
I think Daniels is.

00:39:02.016 --> 00:39:03.496
I think they're both going to be great.

00:39:03.496 --> 00:39:05.148
So I love to have them both.

00:39:05.148 --> 00:39:21.255
But at this point, from what I've seen so far and just looking into the future, I think Williams is a little more versatile and I think at the end of the day, williams is going to end up being a better quarterback.

00:39:21.255 --> 00:39:23.025
Yeah, yeah.

00:39:23.045 --> 00:39:23.586
Great debate, end of the day.

00:39:23.586 --> 00:39:25.150
Williams is going to end up being, uh, a better, a better quarterback than today.

00:39:25.150 --> 00:39:31.186
So, yeah, yeah, but that's, hey, great, great debate, great question, all right, uh, so let's move on to the next one.

00:39:31.186 --> 00:39:38.418
We've got the chiefs at 49ers four, four o'clock game here, or maybe 4 25 pm eastern.

00:39:38.418 --> 00:39:41.914
Uh, this, this should definitely be sund night or Monday night.

00:39:41.914 --> 00:39:44.795
I don't know why this isn't, but hey, it is what it is.

00:39:44.795 --> 00:39:48.755
The 49ers are a two-point favorite at home.

00:39:48.755 --> 00:39:49.971
Still no McCaffrey.

00:39:49.971 --> 00:39:55.197
Think they have officially listed his injury as an Achilles now.

00:39:55.197 --> 00:39:59.335
So that's, you know, very interesting there.

00:39:59.335 --> 00:40:02.273
Hey, anybody hey?

00:40:02.413 --> 00:40:05.164
he's fine, he's healthy, we're good, we're good, we're good we're good.

00:40:05.164 --> 00:40:06.992
Week one, it's all fine.

00:40:06.992 --> 00:40:08.891
Achilles injury when was this?

00:40:08.891 --> 00:40:14.230
And I feel bad for all the people who do fantasy and chose him number one.

00:40:14.230 --> 00:40:17.768
And then when you get that week one text, you're like, oh he's injured.

00:40:18.088 --> 00:40:19.407
Oh, he'll be back next week.

00:40:19.407 --> 00:40:22.105
Oh, no, no, it's achilles injury, both like like.

00:40:22.105 --> 00:40:28.706
I just feel like, bro, what that that thing with the niners is like, why I kind of have an issue with that.

00:40:28.706 --> 00:40:31.534
And again, you see how their running backs have performed in that system.

00:40:31.534 --> 00:40:35.355
So you know jordan mason and, uh, isaac garendo.

00:40:35.355 --> 00:40:37.282
They've both done their, done their thing.

00:40:37.282 --> 00:40:40.012
So I'm not too worried about the running back specific thing.

00:40:40.012 --> 00:40:45.090
But I I do think that Christian offers a different element because he's simply that good.

00:40:45.925 --> 00:41:11.389
But in this game I don't know who I'm picking, but it's tough because I want to see the 49ers get their revenge, because one of my favorite moments of last season was seeing San Francisco get their get back on the Eagles after that NFC Championship, seeing Debo go crazy and the Niners scored six straight touchdowns or some crazy stuff like that.

00:41:11.389 --> 00:41:12.592
That was really cool.

00:41:12.592 --> 00:41:17.771
Huh, you know what I'm picking the Niners in this one.

00:41:17.771 --> 00:41:24.713
I might be wrong, the Chiefs voodoo magic might still be real, but I'm like, hey, that leads to a good team sometimes.

00:41:24.713 --> 00:41:27.373
So let's see the Niners pull this one out.

00:41:27.905 --> 00:41:29.344
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:41:29.344 --> 00:41:33.012
So we all have Diego, dez and myself.

00:41:33.012 --> 00:41:36.539
We all have the Chiefs in this, which I'm shocked.

00:41:36.539 --> 00:41:54.596
I'm shocked, we all have it, but we all kind of are doing blind picks, so we're not seeing what the others pick in here, and I think it's probably more the standpoint of none of us probably wanted to be wrong about the Chiefs, so we just picked the Chiefs.

00:41:54.596 --> 00:41:55.398
You know what I mean.

00:41:55.398 --> 00:42:01.713
But yeah, yeah, I'm sure if we saw each other's picks, one of us would have at least gone with the 49ers.

00:42:01.713 --> 00:42:05.112
But we all have the Chiefs in this.

00:42:05.134 --> 00:42:11.170
Looking forward to this matchup, I'm sure the 49ers will be fired up so they will have the most reps easily.

00:42:11.170 --> 00:42:19.612
Yep, nice, nice, nice, yeah, diego would back that up for sure.

00:42:19.612 --> 00:42:21.617
So, yeah, all right.

00:42:21.617 --> 00:42:24.190
So let's see, we've got three more.

00:42:24.190 --> 00:42:25.931
We've got the Sunday night game.

00:42:25.931 --> 00:42:28.253
We've got the Jets at Steelers.

00:42:28.253 --> 00:42:38.135
Jets are two-point favorite on the road against the Steelers and I think this is we all have the same one.

00:42:38.135 --> 00:42:39.670
Dez, diego and myself all have the same team in this one.

00:42:39.670 --> 00:42:40.474
Who you got, I got the same one.

00:42:40.474 --> 00:42:42.503
Dez, diego and myself all have the same team in this one, who you got?

00:42:42.523 --> 00:42:42.905
I got the Jets.

00:42:42.905 --> 00:42:52.853
The Steelers are, you know, six weeks in 4-2, and now they have a quarterback controversy, which you know, typical Steelers football man.

00:42:52.853 --> 00:42:57.356
It's just every time you think, oh, they're finally turning the corner.

00:42:57.356 --> 00:42:59.009
There's not a dysfunctional thing.

00:42:59.009 --> 00:43:02.135
You got the whole.

00:43:02.135 --> 00:43:06.632
Hey, russell Wilson wants to play now, so hey, let's.

00:43:07.324 --> 00:43:09.990
That's exactly what it is he wants to play.

00:43:10.070 --> 00:43:11.588
Let's see the Jets win this.

00:43:11.588 --> 00:43:17.092
The Jets are going to be another ugly Jets-Steelers game, low scoring.

00:43:17.092 --> 00:43:21.088
I don't predict that it's going to be higher than maybe 23 points on each side.

00:43:21.088 --> 00:43:23.324
It's going to be higher than maybe like 23 points on each side.

00:43:23.324 --> 00:43:26.952
This is going to be ugly, but it'll be a good game.

00:43:27.545 --> 00:43:31.896
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is an athlete process.

00:43:31.896 --> 00:43:32.798
We all want fields.

00:43:32.798 --> 00:43:34.144
Yeah, this is going to be interesting.

00:43:34.144 --> 00:43:45.681
This is going to be interesting to see the facial expression uh on on russ, russell, russell, wills in this game.

00:43:45.681 --> 00:43:57.856
So, because I think he's gonna look terrible, but yet he's gonna sit there and have the composed, everything is okay, look, which is probably gonna infuriate uh, steeler fans even more.

00:43:57.856 --> 00:44:01.387
So that's gonna be an interesting game to see.

00:44:01.407 --> 00:44:04.590
But no man, the Jets are going to put it all on the table.

00:44:04.590 --> 00:44:05.791
They're going to come out firing.

00:44:05.791 --> 00:44:11.438
Rodgers is probably going to throw 30 passes to the body.

00:44:11.438 --> 00:44:13.121
He's going to break a record in targets.

00:44:13.121 --> 00:44:20.371
He's going to be ready and get this one.

00:44:20.371 --> 00:44:21.876
So, yeah, I think the Jets definitely get this one.

00:44:21.876 --> 00:44:24.882
So I think everybody's got them All right.

00:44:24.882 --> 00:44:26.987
So the next game.

00:44:26.987 --> 00:44:31.757
We've got two Monday night games, which I do not like the two Monday night game thing.

00:44:31.757 --> 00:44:36.856
Yeah, I didn't, maybe I do it, because I guess if one is bad, you got another one to flip to.

00:44:36.856 --> 00:44:42.036
So I kind of see from that standpoint, but I don't know, what do you think about the two Monday night?

00:44:42.666 --> 00:44:47.077
I mean, I saw a stat that they're basically doing it because they're there.

00:44:47.077 --> 00:44:56.489
So basically, abc is going to get like the Super Bowl in, like I think, two or three years, right, so they're trying to like establish an audience, to like get used to the network and get used to everything.

00:44:56.489 --> 00:45:00.949
So that's why they've like started to do the two monday night games, more of that.

00:45:00.949 --> 00:45:11.538
Now I think it's annoying because, weirdly enough, with these monday night games you have like an get out, like a classic, and then then you get a trash blowout.

00:45:11.538 --> 00:45:14.291
So you don't know which one you're going to get.

00:45:14.291 --> 00:45:15.788
Now the Ravens-Bucks one.

00:45:15.788 --> 00:45:19.090
That's going to be a classic because I believe they match up really well.

00:45:19.090 --> 00:45:27.965
I am not all the way assured in this Ravens defense right now, plus the Bucks just put up 51 on the Saints.

00:45:27.965 --> 00:45:30.614
They might come in guns blazing.

00:45:30.614 --> 00:45:37.793
So again, I still got the Ravens in this one, but I do think the Bucs are definitely going to make this more of a game than everybody thinks.

00:45:37.793 --> 00:45:38.293
Okay.

00:45:38.614 --> 00:45:40.277
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:45:40.277 --> 00:45:42.766
We all have De'Aziego and myself.

00:45:42.766 --> 00:45:52.753
We all have the Ravens winning this one Side question what do you think about the MB3 that's going on with Lamar Jackson?

00:45:52.753 --> 00:45:55.175
Listen.

00:45:56.476 --> 00:46:03.121
I have no faith in the media members in choosing it right sometimes, so that's what's going to take me off.

00:46:03.121 --> 00:46:15.909
But and I do think that Derrick Henry might take some votes away from Lamar Jackson just because of how common he is and the fact that he might have 2000 yards rushing this season, like I don't know, can you be like.

00:46:15.909 --> 00:46:22.596
Is it true that Lamar Jackson is is like the reason why the Ravens succeeded are doing so well?

00:46:22.596 --> 00:46:30.288
Yes, is it also true that if they have a 2000 yard rusher in the backfield, it's going to be very hard to vote for that guy?

00:46:30.288 --> 00:46:34.711
Well, 2,000-yard rusher in the backfield, it's going to be very hard to vote for that guy, because it's like well that guy behind him doing the read option.

00:46:34.731 --> 00:46:35.773
he ran for 2,000 yards.

00:46:35.773 --> 00:46:39.715
So I personally think Lamar is leading the MVP candidates.

00:46:39.715 --> 00:46:48.989
But again, if Derrick Henry keeps playing the way he's playing, I believe the rest of the team is like OK, these guys are too good, we can't award it.

00:46:49.010 --> 00:47:07.527
So yeah's gonna be, it's gonna be tough yeah, I mean, to me it's it's kind of like the the joker basketball um, before joker won a title, yeah, and you know when he had to, and then it was like, okay, he's ineligible until he wins the championship, and then the same thing that happened with the g freak.

00:47:07.527 --> 00:47:10.130
I think that's kind of the case with Lamar.

00:47:10.130 --> 00:47:18.760
Even if he has the numbers for it, I think he's somewhat banned from winning MVP until he gets a Super Bowl.

00:47:18.760 --> 00:47:26.905
I don't even think he should want to have it, because that then puts more attention and emphasis on the fact that he wouldn't have a Super Bowl.

00:47:26.905 --> 00:47:30.672
So I think everyone else has to.

00:47:30.672 --> 00:47:33.838
There has to be a crazy gap for him.

00:47:33.838 --> 00:47:35.090
Look at Aaron Rodgers.

00:47:35.344 --> 00:47:36.411
He has like four of them.

00:47:36.411 --> 00:47:37.931
He's only won one Super Bowl.

00:47:38.385 --> 00:47:45.032
And he's constantly talking about getting back to that was way more important than him just winning MVP for the regular season.

00:47:45.032 --> 00:47:55.556
So I just think that in Lamar's case, especially after what happened last year when they should have won the Super Bowl, everybody knows the Ravens were a better team than the Chiefs that year.

00:47:55.556 --> 00:48:00.072
It's just, you know, chiefs come playoff time they just turn into a completely different team.

00:48:00.072 --> 00:48:23.474
But I believe we need to be hoping for a Super Bowl MVP than just regular season MVP at this point, because we all know, we're all seeing he's been playing better and he now has a mastery of Tom Monk's offense and with the way he's getting the ball to everybody, yeah, I think again it's highly possible they could win it.

00:48:23.474 --> 00:48:27.813
But I think we should be focused on Super Bowl MVP, not the regular season anymore.

00:48:27.813 --> 00:48:29.572
I think we're past that at this point with Lamar.

00:48:30.706 --> 00:48:34.597
And I'm going to answer the question from Roy here in a second.

00:48:34.597 --> 00:48:43.373
But to go back to the MVP, though so interesting, I see Josh Allen making a big push.

00:48:43.373 --> 00:48:45.311
Now having Cooper.

00:48:45.311 --> 00:48:48.233
They go on a run, don't lose any games.

00:48:48.233 --> 00:48:50.431
That's going to be.

00:48:50.431 --> 00:48:54.315
He'll definitely be in the mix because he always makes a late charge for MVP anyway.

00:48:54.315 --> 00:48:58.655
Now having Cooper, they'll have the record and so he'll be in the mix.

00:48:58.655 --> 00:49:12.215
But if Minnesota beats Detroit and they're still undefeated and they get deeper in the season, it's going to be hard to not have Sam Darnold in the mix.

00:49:12.896 --> 00:49:14.887
Sam, Darnold as a big issue.

00:49:14.887 --> 00:49:19.498
The Sam Darnold MVP would be the most hilarious and sad outcome ever.

00:49:19.498 --> 00:49:22.153
We're just like how is this even possible?

00:49:23.509 --> 00:49:24.333
What do you do as a?

00:49:24.353 --> 00:49:25.056
fan at that point?

00:49:25.056 --> 00:49:26.652
That would be crazy.

00:49:28.791 --> 00:49:29.514
That would be crazy.

00:49:29.514 --> 00:49:33.414
But, roy man, thanks for joining 49er guy.

00:49:33.414 --> 00:49:38.074
Homer man, I've got the Chiefs in this one.

00:49:38.074 --> 00:49:44.355
Not really pulling for the Chiefs, I'm good with the Niners winning.

00:49:44.355 --> 00:49:51.452
You know how I love the Niners over the Chiefs, but I don't know, man, the Niners have been up and down.

00:49:51.452 --> 00:49:52.335
They've not looked good.

00:49:52.335 --> 00:50:04.559
They have the emotional advantage, but Chiefs are going to be ready, the Chiefs are going to be rested and I just don't trust the Niners this year.

00:50:04.559 --> 00:50:07.132
They just don't look right.

00:50:07.132 --> 00:50:11.152
Debo's still banged up, kevin Caffrey with the Achilles now.

00:50:11.152 --> 00:50:14.554
So, roy man, I've got to go with the Chiefs in this.

00:50:14.554 --> 00:50:21.393
We will not be mad if the Niners pull it off, but for picking, I'm going to go ahead and go with the Chiefs in this one.

00:50:21.393 --> 00:50:23.438
Yep, yep, all right.

00:50:24.146 --> 00:50:28.474
So let's move on to the next one, the last one here.

00:50:28.474 --> 00:50:39.273
Let's see We've got chargers versus cardinals and uh, oh, and diego diego's on the island for this one.

00:50:39.273 --> 00:50:42.139
So this is actually, uh, an island game for him.

00:50:42.139 --> 00:50:47.576
So, uh, chargers are the favorite two and a half point favorite going into arizona.

00:50:47.576 --> 00:50:49.407
Uh, who do you have in this one, chris?

00:50:49.929 --> 00:50:52.427
I have the chargers, you know they're just.

00:50:52.427 --> 00:50:59.748
I don't believe the cardinals have the requisite to kind of keep up with the chargers, especially with that run game.

00:50:59.748 --> 00:51:06.753
And then, on top of that, marvin harrison jr doesn't look like he's going to be healthy for this game, so he's out with a concussion.

00:51:06.753 --> 00:51:10.398
So I'm leaning more towards the Chargers than this one, not going to lie.

00:51:11.347 --> 00:51:12.490
That definitely hurts.

00:51:12.490 --> 00:51:16.594
Yeah, so Diego has the Chargers in this one.

00:51:16.594 --> 00:51:22.916
For sure, dez and I both were going with the Cardinals in this one.

00:51:22.916 --> 00:51:31.846
I'm more or less going with the Cardinals because the Cardinals have been great in their division and they've been terrible against everyone else.

00:51:31.846 --> 00:51:35.853
Yes, so the Cardinals clearly have some.

00:51:35.853 --> 00:51:41.976
It's like they've just studied for the division opponents and they're playing lights out against them.

00:51:41.976 --> 00:51:46.429
Uh, and with Harrison man, if Harrison come back, then I really feel good about it.

00:51:46.429 --> 00:51:51.458
But yeah, they've looked great against, um, uh, the divisional opponents.

00:51:51.798 --> 00:51:56.320
It's monday night, it's prime time, kyler murray, uh, lights will be bright.

00:51:56.320 --> 00:52:02.016
I think he'll be, you know, scattering all around and I think they, they, they pull out the upset in in this one.

00:52:02.016 --> 00:52:03.507
That's just how they.

00:52:03.507 --> 00:52:04.710
They've been fluky like that.

00:52:04.710 --> 00:52:07.436
And the chart look, the charges have as well.

00:52:07.436 --> 00:52:11.807
As soon as you want to think, okay, the charges have Chargers, have a hard ball and they're going to run over everybody.

00:52:11.807 --> 00:52:13.472
Then they go and lose to Denver.

00:52:13.472 --> 00:52:17.447
So you know, it's just, you know they've been all over the place.

00:52:17.447 --> 00:52:20.172
All right, man.

00:52:20.172 --> 00:52:24.300
So, hey, let's move on to Brandon.

00:52:24.300 --> 00:52:26.228
I think we got you backstage.

00:52:26.228 --> 00:52:34.971
We're going to go ahead and switch to baseball here and um, let's go ahead and bring in our guy to talk a little bit of baseball.

00:52:34.971 --> 00:52:36.393
We've got it on right now.

00:52:36.393 --> 00:52:37.737
What's up, brandon?

00:52:39.226 --> 00:52:40.547
hey, how y'all doing?

00:52:40.547 --> 00:52:41.429
Doing good man.

00:52:41.429 --> 00:52:42.090
How about you?

00:52:42.090 --> 00:52:45.376
I'm doing good good, good.

00:52:45.556 --> 00:52:51.597
so, uh, man, we've talked, uh, nfl, now we're gonna go into some baseball and basketball with you.

00:52:51.597 --> 00:52:55.610
So you hit me up, man, as soon as you saw we were talking basketball.

00:52:55.610 --> 00:52:56.914
You're like man, I got to get on.

00:52:56.914 --> 00:53:03.034
So, yeah, we definitely have to tap into that mind of yours, but we also have to tap into it for baseball.

00:53:03.034 --> 00:53:07.916
So, looking here, we see the Mets are up 11-6 on the Dodgers.

00:53:07.916 --> 00:53:10.733
Right now Dodgers are up 3-1.

00:53:10.733 --> 00:53:14.996
And then you've got the Yankees up 3-1 on Cleveland.

00:53:14.996 --> 00:53:16.528
But is this?

00:53:16.528 --> 00:53:18.114
Are they just stretching it out?

00:53:18.114 --> 00:53:22.217
Are we on the path for the inevitable, for a Dodgers-Yankees World Series?

00:53:25.625 --> 00:53:30.489
It's crazy because, like, that's like the best I would say it is.

00:53:30.489 --> 00:53:32.835
It's the best possible matchup left.

00:53:32.835 --> 00:53:42.373
And it's crazy that in the history of baseball these two teams never met in the World Series.

00:53:42.373 --> 00:53:43.376
That is correct.

00:53:43.376 --> 00:53:46.815
So for it to finally happen, that would be cool.

00:53:46.815 --> 00:53:57.635
But I think everybody kind of still don't want that to happen because it's like obviously these are like the two most hated teams out in baseball.

00:53:58.505 --> 00:53:58.768
Yeah.

00:53:59.068 --> 00:54:16.494
Obviously, you know, because you got the LA market and the New York market and yeah, it would be like you know it would crazy enough, it would save, I guess, like the World Series in terms of like viewership and money burning barred in and stuff like that.

00:54:16.494 --> 00:54:36.596
But I think it's like I mean in a seven-game series, stranger things are happening even in baseball, I mean where it's like I remember when the Guardians was up 3-1 against the Cubs in the World Series and the Cubs came back and won it in seven games.

00:54:37.706 --> 00:54:42.217
So, like it's a must-win for the Guardians.

00:54:42.217 --> 00:54:47.795
I see what the Mets are doing, so it ain't over until it's over.

00:54:47.795 --> 00:54:48.728
That's how I look at it.

00:54:48.728 --> 00:54:49.532
Okay, All right.

00:54:49.532 --> 00:54:50.277
Okay, so not over until it's over.

00:54:50.277 --> 00:54:51.344
That's how I look at it.

00:54:51.364 --> 00:54:55.150
Okay, all right, okay, so not over until it's over.

00:54:55.150 --> 00:55:02.432
We know Dodgers Yankees would be wild for the ratings, but yet there still would be people hating on that.

00:55:02.432 --> 00:55:07.606
What's your prediction on who is in the World Series and who you got winning it all?

00:55:07.606 --> 00:55:10.074
On who's in the World Series and who you got winning it all?

00:55:14.106 --> 00:55:24.788
If it ends up being Yankees-Dodgers, I would probably go with One.

00:55:24.788 --> 00:55:28.311
It's going to be a 6-7 game series, I can guarantee you that.

00:55:28.311 --> 00:55:32.135
I think I would go with the Dodgers.

00:55:32.135 --> 00:55:35.414
I think Dodgers wins in six.

00:55:35.414 --> 00:55:37.351
I'll give it about six games.

00:55:37.351 --> 00:55:41.653
I think they would win in six If that matchup comes about.

00:55:41.653 --> 00:55:45.353
But I know for a fact it's going to go six or seven games.

00:55:45.353 --> 00:55:46.885
Okay, yeah.

00:55:47.067 --> 00:55:49.014
I can see that happening there.

00:55:49.014 --> 00:55:50.925
Josh says Dodgers.

00:55:50.925 --> 00:55:54.969
Yeah, I've had Dodgers from the beginning here.

00:55:54.969 --> 00:56:00.333
Now you could also have the Subway Series which we've had before Yankees and Mets that's a possibility.

00:56:00.333 --> 00:56:04.155
So there's a lot of different scenarios here.

00:56:04.155 --> 00:56:06.418
So we'll see how that plays out.

00:56:06.418 --> 00:56:16.358
But yeah, it looks like Mets will probably close this out and push it to take it back to LA, as they'll resume that series on Sunday.

00:56:16.358 --> 00:56:20.994
And then we've got the Yankees and the Guardians will pick up tomorrow.

00:56:20.994 --> 00:56:23.130
So we'll see what happens there.

00:56:23.130 --> 00:56:26.831
But I think this will end up being Dodgers, yankees for sure.

00:56:26.831 --> 00:56:34.447
All right, well, man, later tonight we've got the Lynx versus the Liberty man.

00:56:34.447 --> 00:56:35.572
This is going to be wild.

00:56:35.572 --> 00:56:40.476
So are the Liberty are they going to close this out tonight?

00:56:40.476 --> 00:56:47.717
Or the Lynx, like I said from the beginning, going to go ahead and take this to five and then close it out there?

00:56:55.880 --> 00:56:57.262
take this to five and then close it out there.

00:56:57.262 --> 00:57:06.893
I feel like, if you ask me, I kind of want a five game series because it's probably, like I know, this is going to be the last year before they go into a seven game series for the WNBA finals.

00:57:06.893 --> 00:57:28.916
So I kind of want the links to Force of Game 5 because it gives obviously the drama and it's the right ending of the story to tell for the whole five game series set in the W before they pivot to a seven game series for the WNBA finals.

00:57:28.916 --> 00:57:33.353
But it comes down Now if.

00:57:33.353 --> 00:57:38.532
If it's not, then it'll be thanks to, like, sabrina inescu and brianna stewart.

00:57:40.115 --> 00:57:42.121
Yeah yeah, yeah, it's gonna be.

00:57:42.121 --> 00:57:43.628
It's gonna be uh close there.

00:57:43.628 --> 00:57:48.327
And, josh, we see you picking the liberty, because he picked, he picked the liberty from the beginning.

00:57:48.327 --> 00:57:50.936
So he's, he desperately needs a win.

00:57:50.936 --> 00:57:55.184
So he's pulling for the Liberty to get this and wants to get something on me.

00:57:55.184 --> 00:57:58.715
He's still a little sad because I spanked him in fantasy a couple weeks ago.

00:57:58.715 --> 00:58:02.976
But, josh, I'm going to snatch your heart out of your chest once again.

00:58:02.976 --> 00:58:10.097
See, this is going to make it even more painful being up 2-1, then y'all going to lose tonight and then lose game with Josh.

00:58:10.097 --> 00:58:12.929
I don't know how I'm gonna console you, man.

00:58:12.929 --> 00:58:14.313
I don't know how I'm gonna console you, brother.

00:58:14.313 --> 00:58:22.036
So I feel bad for you, josh, but uh, chris, who you got in this one man I have liberty closing it out.

00:58:22.237 --> 00:58:27.711
I believe that serena hit one of the most deflating shots I've ever seen in the history of the sport.

00:58:27.711 --> 00:58:36.494
And you know, I feel like you can play teams close enough, but once something like that happens, you kind of get taken out.

00:58:36.494 --> 00:58:40.132
You're just like you know what it becomes demoralizing at a point.

00:58:40.132 --> 00:58:45.231
So I believe that the Liberty will pull this out and they'll close out the series tonight.

00:58:46.005 --> 00:58:51.606
Okay, all right, so we've got I think everyone pretty much has Liberty, which makes sense.

00:58:51.606 --> 00:58:53.827
Liberty is a very strong team.

00:58:53.827 --> 00:58:58.130
That was a back-breaking shot there, although the Lynx had their great comeback.

00:58:58.130 --> 00:58:58.751
So it's been.

00:58:58.751 --> 00:59:05.213
You know it's swung many different directions here.

00:59:05.213 --> 00:59:09.456
Amazing shot there, kobe Bryant style and pulled that out.

00:59:09.456 --> 00:59:12.217
So we'll see what happens here.

00:59:12.217 --> 00:59:21.521
Can't wait to see that, excited that we've got you know such a great series and I think everyone would love to see that go five just for the drama of that.

00:59:21.521 --> 00:59:23.043
So that'll be great to see there.

00:59:23.583 --> 00:59:28.148
All right, well, let's move on to NBA preview.

00:59:28.148 --> 00:59:29.175
So this is going to be a two-week thing.

00:59:29.175 --> 00:59:30.039
Okay, on to NBA preview.

00:59:30.039 --> 00:59:31.684
So this is going to be a two-week thing, okay.

00:59:31.684 --> 00:59:34.704
So today just want to talk high level about the NBA.

00:59:34.704 --> 00:59:39.186
I believe the season starts on Tuesday, so can't wait for that.

00:59:39.226 --> 00:59:41.128
There's a ton of storylines, of course.

00:59:41.128 --> 00:59:45.998
You've got the Lakers with Ronnie and Juan.

00:59:45.998 --> 00:59:47.617
You've got that.

00:59:47.617 --> 00:59:50.166
You've got Golden State moving on without Clay.

00:59:50.166 --> 00:59:55.030
You've got Dallas, minnesota, the Knicks so many storylines so it's wild.

00:59:55.030 --> 01:00:05.239
But I want to go a little more high level today and then next week, diego myself, chris, we're going to have our seeds.

01:00:05.239 --> 01:00:10.202
We're going to give you the seeds for the East and west, 10 through 1, and break all that down.

01:00:10.202 --> 01:00:16.644
But today we're going to talk more high level, uh, and talk about nba finals and a couple of the storylines.

01:00:16.644 --> 01:00:26.650
So, chris, let's start with you, man, who you got, who you got coming out the east, who you got coming out the west and, uh, winning it all.

01:00:26.650 --> 01:00:31.278
As you see right, it might change once we get to the playoffs, but what do you see right now?

01:00:31.846 --> 01:00:40.255
So, as I see it right now, and because I have a bet with one of my close friends, I believe it will be Nick's thunder in the finals.

01:00:40.255 --> 01:00:48.331
Now I do believe that New York, adding Cat, is a huge plus to a team that already was deep and already was performing well.

01:00:48.331 --> 01:00:50.849
And Jalen Brunson has blossomed into a star.

01:00:50.849 --> 01:00:57.447
I believe him and cat as a big man and point guard bro, that's just gonna be something special.

01:00:57.447 --> 01:01:05.753
And they still have all their great defenders who can help lock down the people who play well, lock down everybody who plays on the celtics.

01:01:05.753 --> 01:01:08.226
So I think that could be very interesting.

01:01:08.226 --> 01:01:17.585
Now I do think if it's the Celtics in the conference finals the team with the more experience it scares me a little, but you know, I gotta stick to my guns and stick to my bet.

01:01:17.606 --> 01:01:18.871
And then the Thunder.

01:01:18.871 --> 01:01:28.025
They were already on one seed in the best conference with out having a true big man, and they have that in Hartenstein.

01:01:28.025 --> 01:01:32.713
They have another good defender in Caruso Che is an MVP candidate, jaden.

01:01:32.713 --> 01:01:42.646
Like you're going to see Jaden and Chet take a step forward, I believe.

01:01:42.646 --> 01:01:47.637
I think that we can't do this thing that we did with Boston, where it's just like oh, they're like a season away, a season away, and then they finally win.

01:01:47.637 --> 01:01:53.251
I feel like this is one of the times where like no, they've proven how good they are, they just need to show up now.

01:01:53.251 --> 01:02:00.641
Like now is the time where they can be like okay, this is our conference, this is our league and we're turning up.

01:02:00.641 --> 01:02:10.425
And I like the fact that the younger players are showing up more and the old guard we're kind of seeing slowly fade away.

01:02:11.269 --> 01:02:17.152
That's one thing that I'm enjoying seeing towards this specific season of the NBA seeing the young guard really take hold and take shape in the league.

01:02:18.807 --> 01:02:20.349
Yeah, that's been cool to see.

01:02:20.349 --> 01:02:25.909
We started to see that last year and definitely we'll continue to see that going into this year.

01:02:25.909 --> 01:02:32.454
That's what you've got Brandon, who you got in the finals this year right now.

01:02:36.226 --> 01:02:43.161
I mean Minnesota and Minnesota OKC look real good.

01:02:43.161 --> 01:02:58.956
But I got like, when you got Jokic out there, I'm like I don't know what this man doing all season, but it's like he just like.

01:02:58.956 --> 01:03:00.545
I already just rolled the ball up.

01:03:00.545 --> 01:03:07.778
I'm, finna, just put up 25, 12, and 8, and just that's just me.

01:03:07.778 --> 01:03:14.648
And it's hard to go against that every single night and you can't ask for like.

01:03:14.648 --> 01:03:20.320
Jamal Murray is not going to get injured again, probably.

01:03:20.320 --> 01:03:23.873
So that's why I got Denver coming out of the West.

01:03:24.576 --> 01:03:24.817
Okay.

01:03:25.704 --> 01:03:29.068
And the East Porzingis, whether he's there or not.

01:03:29.068 --> 01:03:32.150
I got the Celtics coming out of the West and the East Porzingis, whether he's there or not.

01:03:32.150 --> 01:03:34.313
I got the Celtics coming out the West.

01:03:34.313 --> 01:03:38.157
I think it was almost close last year that we got Celtics Nuggets.

01:03:38.157 --> 01:03:40.599
So I'm going back with the same pick.

01:03:40.599 --> 01:03:43.681
I think it's going to be Celtics Nuggets for the finals.

01:03:43.681 --> 01:03:49.128
I'd love to see that, and I just need both teams healthy.

01:03:49.128 --> 01:03:50.969
I mean I got Boston repeating their champions.

01:03:50.969 --> 01:03:52.030
I just need both teams healthy.

01:03:52.030 --> 01:03:53.552
I mean I got Boston repeating their champions.

01:03:53.552 --> 01:03:55.353
I just need both of them to be healthy.

01:03:55.353 --> 01:03:58.456
So it would be like a 6-7 game series.

01:03:58.456 --> 01:04:04.521
So yeah, I have like it's going to be Boston and Denver Boston and Denver.

01:04:04.702 --> 01:04:10.148
Okay, boston and Denver yeah, a lot of people.

01:04:10.148 --> 01:04:24.853
I think Diego, as of right now, will make it official next week, but he has Boston and Minnesota and I believe that's what Josh put in is that I would say Boston as well.

01:04:24.853 --> 01:04:33.644
The Knicks I like what they've done, but I just don't trust them to be healthy.

01:04:33.644 --> 01:04:34.427
Okay.

01:04:36.782 --> 01:04:38.713
Yeah, the Tibbs factor in it all yeah.

01:04:39.938 --> 01:04:41.442
Yeah, with Tibbs and everything.

01:04:41.543 --> 01:04:42.686
I don't trust it.

01:04:42.686 --> 01:04:49.088
They'll limp into the playoffs fight, be gritty and all that.

01:04:49.088 --> 01:04:54.728
Take Team 7 and all that stuff, but they'll be too hurt to do anything.

01:04:54.728 --> 01:04:59.347
So I think the Celtics make it there for sure.

01:04:59.347 --> 01:05:02.643
The West man it's so tough.

01:05:03.175 --> 01:05:08.588
I really wanted to go Denver but I'm concerned about Jamal Murray.

01:05:08.588 --> 01:05:12.083
He didn't look good in the Olympics.

01:05:12.083 --> 01:05:18.222
I just don't know if he's going to be all the way where he needs to be.

01:05:18.222 --> 01:05:27.945
And I don't trust Porter and Gordon to play major role, Like if Murray is hurt.

01:05:27.945 --> 01:05:32.021
I don't trust them to be able to step up and take up the slack.

01:05:32.021 --> 01:05:38.699
You know they're cool third and fourth guys, but I don't trust them to be able to step up when needed.

01:05:38.699 --> 01:05:41.284
And they've lost some people.

01:05:41.284 --> 01:05:42.768
They're not as deep as they've been.

01:05:42.768 --> 01:05:47.826
So that's the only reason I'm not going with them, although I'd love to see them.

01:05:47.826 --> 01:06:04.204
Okc, I feel that they're still young and early, although they were the number one seed last year and then pushed Dallas as far as anybody outside of Boston beating them, so I was really impressed with how they looked against them.

01:06:04.204 --> 01:06:10.143
That could have gone either way, but man, I think this is.

01:06:10.242 --> 01:06:12.188
I think Dallas is going to get back.

01:06:12.188 --> 01:06:22.626
I'm going with the you hardly see this, except when it was the Cavs and Warriors but I'm going with the repeat of the finals.

01:06:22.626 --> 01:06:29.606
I'm going Mavs-Boston to run it back, but Mavs have all the motivation.

01:06:29.606 --> 01:06:31.621
Oh man, they'll be fired up.

01:06:31.621 --> 01:06:33.300
You got Klay in the mix now.

01:06:33.300 --> 01:06:40.688
That's going to be like Ray Allen when he went to, when he went to Miami, and you got Luca coming back.

01:06:40.688 --> 01:06:43.436
Luca, hopefully, will be in shape, be healthy.

01:06:43.436 --> 01:06:50.722
Kyrie will get the Boston demons out of his head and be able to actually play like he did throughout the rest of the playoffs in Boston.

01:06:50.722 --> 01:06:54.585
And I think Dallas, Dallas, Dallas gets it.

01:06:54.585 --> 01:06:57.266
I'm going to go ahead and go with that.

01:06:57.266 --> 01:07:01.469
We'll do the full breakdown next week, but my early pick, I'm going to go Dallas.

01:07:02.251 --> 01:07:03.831
All right, all right.

01:07:04.192 --> 01:07:10.644
Yeah, yeah, so you may see a visit of Jerry Jones as we get closer.

01:07:10.644 --> 01:07:14.398
All right, can't wait for that.

01:07:14.398 --> 01:07:16.789
As we get closer, all right, can't wait for that.

01:07:16.789 --> 01:07:23.268
Well, hey, brandon man, before you go, you have any takes on, I'll tell you what.

01:07:23.268 --> 01:07:29.514
Let's talk about one more thing here Memphis, grizzlies.

01:07:29.514 --> 01:07:33.045
Okay, I'd love to get both of your takes on Memphis, and then we'll leave basketball on that.

01:07:33.045 --> 01:07:37.965
Brandon, where do you see Memphis falling this year?

01:07:42.800 --> 01:07:47.909
They're in the playing, but they could supersede their expectations.

01:07:48.590 --> 01:07:48.909
Okay.

01:07:49.434 --> 01:07:58.157
For as like, obviously, the return of John Morant, you draft the ED, you have Jackson, you have.

01:07:58.157 --> 01:08:00.681
Smart and then you got the second unit.

01:08:00.681 --> 01:08:20.943
So it's like I think it's like they kind of like one of those things that everybody forgot about, that you know that's coming back on a mission, that's trying to like, like you know, saying hey, don't forget about us, you know, don't sleep on us.

01:08:20.943 --> 01:08:28.246
So they're one of the teams that you know could be a force to reckon with.

01:08:29.609 --> 01:08:34.396
Okay, okay, so play in, okay, so play-in.

01:08:34.396 --> 01:08:40.059
Will they make it out of the play-in and be one of the teams actually in the playoffs?

01:08:40.059 --> 01:08:40.699
Yes, yeah.

01:08:40.939 --> 01:08:42.581
They'll be like an?

01:08:42.581 --> 01:08:45.162
A seed or something Either a seventh or an A seed.

01:08:45.242 --> 01:08:47.682
However, yeah, all right.

01:08:47.682 --> 01:08:48.684
Okay, what about you, chris?

01:08:49.123 --> 01:09:03.190
Listen, I've had this feeling about them since, after all the injuries last year, after seeing their progression the past three or four years, I believe they're at least going to be a top four seed.

01:09:03.190 --> 01:09:05.372
I think I have them at four.

01:09:05.372 --> 01:09:19.057
But I think that with Ja fully healthy, locked in and focused, desmond Bain developed his game with all the injuries and everything going on, so he learned how to turn up even without a job being there.

01:09:19.338 --> 01:09:26.981
You still have Jaron Jackson, they have Edie, like you said, and again the bench mob, and Taylor Jenkins is a really good coach.

01:09:26.981 --> 01:09:28.837
It's just that they were decimated last year.

01:09:28.837 --> 01:09:43.502
I really believe that the Grizzlies are going to be one of the surprises of the season, but because if you saw how they were playing, they had that OKC hype before you know everything that happened with Ja.

01:09:43.502 --> 01:09:53.179
So I believe that if we get, if we don't we get the share action for E-Draw, everything's focused, everybody's locked in on the mission of the goal.

01:09:53.179 --> 01:09:54.784
They're a top four seed in the West.

01:09:56.016 --> 01:09:56.297
Yeah, focused.

01:09:56.297 --> 01:09:57.684
Everybody's locked in on the mission of the goal.

01:09:57.684 --> 01:09:59.171
They're a top four seed in the West.

01:09:59.171 --> 01:10:01.761
Okay, All right, Top four, I'm kind of somewhere in between.

01:10:01.761 --> 01:10:08.619
So I would say I think they'll finish.

01:10:08.619 --> 01:10:13.220
If I had to guess, I'd say five or six is probably.

01:10:13.220 --> 01:10:14.856
I'll give you an exact ranking next week.

01:10:14.856 --> 01:10:16.144
But as of right now, I'd have to say five or six is probably.

01:10:16.144 --> 01:10:17.451
I'll give you an exact um ranking to uh next week.

01:10:17.451 --> 01:10:19.859
But as of right now I'd have to say five or six.

01:10:19.859 --> 01:10:24.537
I think they finish above playing, but I don't know if they'll be top four.

01:10:25.400 --> 01:10:28.109
Um, you have to take into account injuries now.

01:10:28.109 --> 01:10:31.618
I mean jaw jaw battled injuries even before last year.

01:10:31.618 --> 01:10:37.009
So just with his style of play you know he's always susceptible to that.

01:10:37.009 --> 01:10:38.119
So that's my concern.

01:10:38.119 --> 01:10:44.884
They're so jaw heavy that he just knocked it, Even if it's not a season or anything, if he just missed a couple weeks.

01:10:44.884 --> 01:10:53.506
The West is so loaded and the West is going to be separated by just a game or two that you know him being out a couple weeks could be the difference in that.

01:10:53.506 --> 01:10:57.761
So if I had to say right now I'd say that but can't wait to see.

01:10:57.761 --> 01:10:59.961
They're going to be a team.

01:10:59.961 --> 01:11:04.175
When I'm flipping through the channels, I'll definitely be looking.

01:11:04.194 --> 01:11:06.804
Oh yeah, those Grizzlies-Wolves games are going to be like.

01:11:06.804 --> 01:11:12.219
Oh yeah, that's going to be nasty, that's what's got me excited for this season?

01:11:12.600 --> 01:11:13.563
That's going to be nasty.

01:11:13.563 --> 01:11:14.564
Can't wait to see that.

01:11:14.564 --> 01:11:15.807
All right, brandon.

01:11:15.807 --> 01:11:18.925
Well, hey, man can't wait to follow everything with you.

01:11:18.925 --> 01:11:21.814
I know we'll be messaging and everything.

01:11:21.814 --> 01:11:27.265
And man, enjoy the games this weekend, my man All right, thanks.

01:11:27.265 --> 01:11:28.368
All right thanks.

01:11:28.387 --> 01:11:28.668
Brandon.

01:11:30.296 --> 01:11:31.360
Ooh, all right.

01:11:31.360 --> 01:11:32.538
So that's our guy.

01:11:32.538 --> 01:11:44.122
Our guy Brandon Always love to have him on and school us on, especially some of the other sports, because man Brandon follows everything, so he's got all the hockey, all of that.

01:11:44.122 --> 01:11:55.911
Brandon's following it all, so we love to get his, his take on all that, all right, well, man, we're going to finish up with music like last time, and we're going to finish up with music like we did last time.

01:11:55.911 --> 01:12:04.320
So again you've got you're getting closer to starting generational music debates, your new podcast coming out.

01:12:04.320 --> 01:12:10.658
You're talking about music, you know, amongst the different generations of people, so we're really excited to see that.

01:12:10.658 --> 01:12:15.680
I know you're getting your topic list together, getting your guest list together, so we're truly looking forward to that and we'll be supporting that.

01:12:15.680 --> 01:12:18.932
I know you're getting your topic list together, getting your guest list together, so we're truly looking forward to that and we'll be supporting that.

01:12:18.932 --> 01:12:25.770
But why don't you go ahead and take us through our top five list and debate on music for today?

01:12:26.431 --> 01:12:29.980
All right, so we are talking about top five hip hop producers of all time.

01:12:29.980 --> 01:12:44.530
Now you cannot tell the story about hip hop without the producers, without the people behind the boards making the hits and basically turning out stuff that basically defines eras, defines genres, defines sounds of, just like states and regions.

01:12:44.530 --> 01:12:52.168
Like you, I really believe that, with the hip-hop producers that I've chosen, that you can't define hip-hop without that.

01:12:52.168 --> 01:13:02.082
So I'm going gonna do five to five to one yeah now five is my dark horse sleeper, very modern pick.

01:13:02.524 --> 01:13:05.109
I have drake's producer 40 now.

01:13:05.109 --> 01:13:24.125
If you think now everybody doesn't acknowledge how much he had a hand in basically shaping Drake's music and everybody since then has tried to make the moody, the moody very high, emotional, very just darker R&B sound.

01:13:24.125 --> 01:13:27.940
R&b and rap sound that he Drake just kind of shrugged gold with.

01:13:27.940 --> 01:13:30.443
You see that with classics like On Take Care.

01:13:30.443 --> 01:13:39.844
You see that with a song called Tuscan Leather where he basically flips one of whitney houston's best songs and drake just goes absolutely insane on it.

01:13:39.844 --> 01:13:50.078
And I believe that for me, like you, can't, we can't talk about the basically the best artist of his of his era without his right hand man in 40.

01:13:50.078 --> 01:13:52.722
So I definitely wanted, wanted to shout out him.

01:13:52.722 --> 01:14:08.725
I like that Number four organized noise Basically, oh yeah, basically the sound behind Outkast and the Revival and basically the reason why there's a music renaissance in the South and why the South is here to stay.

01:14:09.086 --> 01:14:09.768
Oh, that's a good one.

01:14:09.807 --> 01:14:10.909
Listen, good one.

01:14:10.909 --> 01:14:19.329
You are doing the behind the boards work for what everybody considers possibly the most flawless discography in hip-hop.

01:14:19.329 --> 01:14:20.780
You've got to be on this list.

01:14:20.780 --> 01:14:28.626
I am so grateful for what they've done Basically, just like, hey, we're going to give Audrey 2000 a big boy of these beats.

01:14:28.846 --> 01:14:29.728
We're going to let them cook.

01:14:30.275 --> 01:14:33.337
And it was just something special, so definitely got them.

01:14:33.337 --> 01:15:09.787
Number three this is just a personal favorite of mine Juicy J, dj Paul, the whole Three Six Mafia Purely because, again, the Memphis sound is so influential and it's one of the lasting parts of hip-hop that is still stuck to this day, pop that is still stuck to this day, like, just with the dark beats, just even like the content, the samples, everything, just I love juicy j and dj paul and you cannot listen to any rap song now without hearing at least one three six mafia sample, so I definitely wanted to shout them out.

01:15:09.787 --> 01:15:12.621
Number two again, this is recency bias.

01:15:12.621 --> 01:15:21.123
Again, I'm 22 years old, I am metro booming now to me I think after everything he did this year yeah

01:15:21.163 --> 01:15:22.867
and that is the entirety of hip-hop.

01:15:22.867 --> 01:15:28.225
You can't tell the story of hip-hop of the 2010s, of the 2020s, without metro, like.

01:15:28.225 --> 01:15:38.835
I really think that, especially this year he he got into a different bag, especially with working with Future on both of these albums, but he was outside of working with Future.

01:15:38.835 --> 01:15:48.747
All the production he's had and how he's basically the creator of what rap sounds like now is really cool.

01:15:48.747 --> 01:15:56.185
My number one it's a tie again it's Pharrell and Timbaland, because I cannot Listen.

01:15:56.185 --> 01:16:11.944
I believe that they produced some of the greatest hip-hop songs ever and you just sit back and pull up their classics and people will argue like who produces better?

01:16:11.944 --> 01:16:12.757
Like what do they do?

01:16:12.757 --> 01:16:14.396
And they're from the same area.

01:16:14.717 --> 01:16:30.123
So I had to shout, shout both of them out, because I believe it's like one of those you can't have one without the other, especially in hip-hop and yeah, I believe to me timbaland's probably my personal favorite, but I had to give love to pharrell just because of what he did.

01:16:30.364 --> 01:16:31.306
I have a question for you.

01:16:31.306 --> 01:16:35.695
I've always I said this and my friends kind of looked at me crazy.

01:16:35.695 --> 01:16:42.434
I was like I feel like pharrell made snoop dogg a little bit more of the fun energetic.

01:16:42.434 --> 01:16:54.006
You saw the more fun, unserious, more commercial side of snoop dogg versus you get the g funk with dr dre I've always wondered like who's?

01:16:54.568 --> 01:16:57.757
who do you say like impacted snoop's career overall better?

01:16:57.757 --> 01:17:00.164
Was it dre or was it pharrell?

01:17:00.164 --> 01:17:03.113
I that's that's my toughest debate now.

01:17:03.113 --> 01:17:09.551
I personally say pharrell is like a huge part of like why snoop is like so marketable now why?

01:17:09.551 --> 01:17:13.762
Everybody can like hey, still martha stewart, still about the Olympics.

01:17:13.762 --> 01:17:17.802
It's because of everything he did basically with Pharrell.

01:17:17.802 --> 01:17:20.500
That's just something real interesting to me.

01:17:20.500 --> 01:17:25.717
But yeah, I have Pharrell and Timbaland as my number one producers of hip-hop all the time.

01:17:26.640 --> 01:17:27.542
I like that Okay.

01:17:27.542 --> 01:17:37.667
Yeah, Ye was definitely nice and I'm seeing yay and a lot of, a lot of lists here.

01:17:37.667 --> 01:17:43.568
So, yeah, this is a tough one, like I was with Diego when I was kind of making my list.

01:17:43.568 --> 01:18:00.586
And this is one where I don't like honorable mentions because it's like no, make your list, people are not going to make the list, but I literally have like five or six honorable mentions on this just to even let people know.

01:18:00.586 --> 01:18:03.162
Hey, I know about all these other producers.

01:18:06.681 --> 01:18:07.585
I know I'm leaving out.

01:18:07.585 --> 01:18:13.327
Like Dr Dre, Premier RZA, I'm leaving out a bunch of people.

01:18:13.327 --> 01:18:17.243
I'm sorry, just Blaze is like my dark horse.

01:18:17.243 --> 01:18:26.511
Yeah, I believe that these five have kind of defined hip hop in this modern era.

01:18:26.612 --> 01:18:32.820
Yeah, this is a tough one, okay.

01:18:32.820 --> 01:18:35.146
So I love what I'm seeing on the list here.

01:18:35.146 --> 01:18:40.904
I so I'm going to go through some of my honorable mentions, people that just didn't make it, but just I'm going to list some people.

01:18:40.904 --> 01:18:43.180
So Kanye was one of my honorable mentions.

01:18:43.180 --> 01:18:44.439
He did not make my top five.

01:18:44.439 --> 01:18:48.975
Might be sinful by me being from Chicago not putting him on there, so I might not be allowed.

01:18:49.055 --> 01:18:49.577
I'm crazy.

01:18:50.157 --> 01:18:53.980
All right, daz, daz, dillinger.

01:18:53.980 --> 01:18:58.324
Daz did a lot of the West Coast beats with Pac and all that.

01:18:58.324 --> 01:19:01.788
A lot of the beats where people thought it was Dre was actually Daz.

01:19:01.788 --> 01:19:04.391
So Daz was an amazing producer.

01:19:04.391 --> 01:19:09.997
A lot of people again.

01:19:09.997 --> 01:19:10.438
That's more my era.

01:19:10.438 --> 01:19:13.988
That's why it's cool for the generations to talk about this, because you hear about people that may not be on the radar.

01:19:13.988 --> 01:19:17.521
So Daz, beats by the Pound Beats by the Pound did a whole lot.

01:19:17.521 --> 01:19:23.539
They remind me of what was the Organized Noise yeah, organized Noise for the South.

01:19:23.539 --> 01:19:25.668
Beats by the Pound did a lot of the no Limit stuff.

01:19:25.668 --> 01:19:28.041
Oh, okay, they were doing like all of that.

01:19:28.041 --> 01:19:34.360
They kind of were like that New Orleans sound when that was coming up, they did a lot of that.

01:19:34.360 --> 01:19:36.467
So New Orleans sound, when that was coming up, they did a lot of that.

01:19:36.467 --> 01:19:37.354
There were honorable mentions Swiss beats.

01:19:37.354 --> 01:19:40.222
Swiss does a whole lot.

01:19:40.222 --> 01:19:42.860
A lot of TI, a lot of all that.

01:19:42.860 --> 01:19:51.542
Oh man, dj Mustard, I had to find an initial, not like us.

01:19:51.957 --> 01:19:52.680
You know what I mean.

01:19:52.680 --> 01:19:55.721
Again, so many people.

01:19:55.721 --> 01:19:57.280
You're going to leave people out.

01:19:57.280 --> 01:19:59.079
These are all the people that I left out.

01:19:59.079 --> 01:20:01.782
My number five like you, I had Metro Boomer.

01:20:01.782 --> 01:20:04.076
I have him in my top five.

01:20:04.076 --> 01:20:05.100
I had to put him on there.

01:20:05.100 --> 01:20:06.465
He did so much.

01:20:06.586 --> 01:20:35.015
I love your pick about 40, though I actually didn't realize you're schooling me on that, because I didn't know he was behind a lot of that Drake music so I had to go and see all the way he's doing Basically him, boy Wonder and some and there's like another producer I'm forgetting, but basically 40 is like the right hand, like he's like the one in basically constructing everything with Drake and again with all the stuff he produced on Take Care and Nothing Was he produced?

01:20:35.015 --> 01:20:35.876
I'm like take care and nothing was the same.

01:20:35.876 --> 01:20:37.282
I was like I have to put you on the set.

01:20:37.282 --> 01:20:40.382
Those are the modern classics.

01:20:41.386 --> 01:20:42.923
I like that, I like that and now.

01:20:42.923 --> 01:20:46.141
So my 4-1 is going to totally be my era.

01:20:46.141 --> 01:20:54.145
So I'm totally showing my age of where I'm at Number 4, I've got Jermaine Dupri yeah.

01:20:54.605 --> 01:20:56.188
That hurts, that hurts.

01:20:56.389 --> 01:20:57.109
Oh, my God.

01:20:59.155 --> 01:21:01.341
I mean all the stuff he's done.

01:21:01.341 --> 01:21:02.525
And then his versatility.

01:21:02.525 --> 01:21:07.284
He brought Mariah Carey back producing that album for her.

01:21:07.284 --> 01:21:13.127
She was big, and then the album that he did for her really kind of gave her another run.

01:21:13.127 --> 01:21:17.304
So JD was nasty.

01:21:17.435 --> 01:21:19.039
Number three I've got Timbaland.

01:21:19.039 --> 01:21:28.427
Got him there, he again, and what I love about Timbaland is he had a revolutionary sound that really changed the game.

01:21:28.427 --> 01:21:36.518
So it's hard to write the story of hip hop and music and all that without him, because when his style came out, I was like whoa, what in the world?

01:21:36.518 --> 01:21:37.340
What is this?

01:21:37.340 --> 01:21:39.324
You know, it's definitely different.

01:21:39.324 --> 01:21:41.296
Number two I've got pharrell.

01:21:41.296 --> 01:21:43.962
All that, all of what he's done.

01:21:44.042 --> 01:21:47.028
And I love what you said, though, about him working with snoop.

01:21:47.028 --> 01:21:54.429
That's, that is very interesting, because he did bring a different side of snoop uh in and um.

01:21:54.429 --> 01:21:56.962
Yeah, those are definitely different songs.

01:21:56.962 --> 01:21:59.282
So I like what you said about that.

01:21:59.282 --> 01:22:02.123
But, number one I got to have Dr Dre.

01:22:02.123 --> 01:22:06.286
Dr Dre, I cannot write the story without the doctor.

01:22:06.286 --> 01:22:07.780
Especially my era.

01:22:07.780 --> 01:22:11.884
There is nobody better than Dr Dre.

01:22:11.884 --> 01:22:15.724
And the other thing, the thing that's interesting about his beats is a lot of them.

01:22:15.724 --> 01:22:18.238
There's nothing crazy to them.

01:22:18.238 --> 01:22:20.960
There's nothing typically crazy complex.

01:22:20.960 --> 01:22:27.220
A lot of them are very simple, but his beats also, most of them, are timeless.

01:22:27.220 --> 01:22:33.201
They're just classic, timeless beats, to where you hear them 20 years later and they still.

01:22:33.475 --> 01:22:34.725
The next episode still goes up every single time.

01:22:34.725 --> 01:22:34.966
You hear it 20 years later and they still.

01:22:34.966 --> 01:22:37.827
Yeah, the next episode still goes up, like every single time you hear it.

01:22:37.827 --> 01:22:39.409
It's timeless.

01:22:39.409 --> 01:22:44.122
That's the thing I feel like with producers, and especially like now.

01:22:44.122 --> 01:22:57.380
I feel like producers are getting more love for being timeless than the actual artists at this point, and that sucks, because there's like great artists, there's like a bunch of great producers right now.

01:22:57.380 --> 01:23:06.904
I feel like when we talk about hip-hop producers, there's a lot of great ones that are basically engineering and basically piggybacking most of these people's careers.

01:23:06.904 --> 01:23:09.963
Some of these artists are about some of these producers.

01:23:10.457 --> 01:23:13.640
I'm like I don't know if we're going to be tuning in, yeah.

01:23:13.900 --> 01:23:15.701
They play a big, big part.

01:23:15.701 --> 01:23:17.996
Shout out to Tavares, jordan, tavares.

01:23:17.996 --> 01:23:20.765
Jordan is our Pick'em Pro producer man.

01:23:20.765 --> 01:23:23.304
He's made the beat for Pick'em Pros.

01:23:23.304 --> 01:23:24.640
He's been to some of our shows.

01:23:24.640 --> 01:23:25.443
We love Tavares.

01:23:25.443 --> 01:23:27.684
You see him in our intro and outro.

01:23:27.684 --> 01:23:29.943
So big shout out to Tavares.

01:23:29.943 --> 01:23:32.395
Hopefully we can get him to our next show.

01:23:32.395 --> 01:23:39.338
I actually want to get him on as a guest on, and I know we're looking to get him on your show as well.

01:23:39.338 --> 01:23:41.039
So, yeah, tavares is the man.

01:23:41.039 --> 01:23:42.461
He's an old soul.

01:23:42.461 --> 01:23:47.703
So, yeah, we love his style and his sound is definitely cool and unique.

01:23:47.703 --> 01:23:49.083
So we love him.

01:23:49.083 --> 01:23:52.164
But yeah, man, can't wait for your show to come out.

01:23:52.164 --> 01:23:57.506
All right, well, summer, do we have any questions in the queue?

01:23:57.506 --> 01:23:58.387
Anything to go to?

01:23:58.387 --> 01:23:59.747
All right, okay.

01:23:59.747 --> 01:24:01.269
So I think we're clear on that.

01:24:01.269 --> 01:24:03.590
Anything else from you, chris?

01:24:04.130 --> 01:24:05.411
No, nothing at all.

01:24:05.411 --> 01:24:06.110
I think we're good.

01:24:06.110 --> 01:24:07.032
This is a great show.

01:24:07.671 --> 01:24:09.252
Yeah, cool, cool, great.

01:24:09.252 --> 01:24:10.733
Nah, I appreciate that, man.

01:24:10.733 --> 01:24:13.055
Well, hey, excited for.

01:24:13.055 --> 01:24:14.239
So two things that we'll close on.
