GOAT TV Tournament, Top MLB plays, and Patrick Ewing comes full circle!

the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I want to take this time out right now to welcome all our newest listeners. Are Sports Byline listeners, are American Forces Radio Network listeners. Uh thanks for tuning on in. What we do here on the Fantasy Freestyle is give you what you need to win your leagues and win that cash. I got my boy Chris Bavona with me on the ones and twols helping us. We can stay so hot we sweat steam. Let me tell you what we're gonna be doing on

today's show. As usual, We're gonna go around the league. I'm gonna give you all the series to stack all the DFS plays for tonight. We put the fun in Functional Sports Radio and we've been looking to crown the greatest TV show of all time. We got some heavy duty matchups in the drama region, so get out on at fn T s Y Radio Twitter handle because we've got Breaking Bad versus the Sopranos in the drama region. We also have got the Simpsons Verse south Park to

see who comes out of the animated region. I got another poll because as you know, Tony Romo has moved on. He's gonna be going to CBS, so that means me, I'm wondering what do the Texans do next? So we got that poll up there right now as well on that f n T s Y radio Twitter handle. What do the Texans do next? Do they go for a running quarterback, a guy like Kaepernick or r G three. Do they go for a pocket quarterback that's still out there, guys like Jay Cutler maybe Ryan Fitzpatrick. Do they use

the first round pick trying to draft the future? Or do they ride with their quarterback incumbent, the guy Tom Savage right now? I don't know. You can get out there and vote a lot of ways that you could be part of the fantasy Freestyle. You could also holler at me at eight four four eight four three six,

eight seven nine. We're gonna take a quick break in a minute, but when we come back, we're gonna get it started with our Top five Dead or Live where your boys Speeds the Spitting Statistician gives you all the nudes and notes you need in football and in baseball. I got a couple of things I'm gonna want to talk about and get your thoughts on if you want to call me at eight four four eight four three six, eight seven nine. We're talking about the NHL not suspending

their schedule for the Olympics. We're talking about Patrick Ewing finally getting a job. All that and more. When we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle, I'm your boy, Dane Martinez, Speeds the Spitting Statistician once again. Shout out to all our newest listeners on Sports Byline and the American Forces Radio Network. You know what it is. This is your boy Dane Martinez and you're listening live to the Fantasy Freestyle in the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Let's get into it.

Top five Dead or Alive. We're starting to cipher off with news and notes in Major League Baseball Justin Upton left the game the other day with a knee injury. They might the Tigers might go ahead inside his brother Melvin Upton. Check fantasy line ups for that. Junior Gara, Milwaukee Brewers pitcher looks like he might go to the d L. He heard his calf running out a bunt attempt. So if you drafted him in your leagues, move him to the d L. Remember it's the ten day del

not the fifteen day deal anymore. Seth Lugo Mets pitcher. They have confirmed he has a slight tear of his U c L. Normally, when guys get tear that that minds up being Tommy John surgery. But this is now another one in a growing line of people who competed in the w b C who now have some injury concerns.

Member Deed Gregorious on the Yankees. Drew Smiley by the Seattle Mariners was just moved to the sixty day d L. He participated in the w C w BC and now all of a sudden, this Mets pitching staff their depth is not what it once was. Remember Mr Stephen Matts has also been shut down for the next couple of weeks. If you are still searching for saves earlier on in your fantasy baseball season, might I suggests you take a look to the Oakland Athletics. It's actually Santiago Cassilla. He

got the first save opportunity. A lot of people thought it was gonna be Ryan Madson, maybe Shawn Doolittle, but no, no, no, it was Mr Cassilla getting the first save opportunity out there in Oakland. And then yesterday Mr Dull, who many people, including Tony Senkada on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network think might be their actual best reliever. He got lit up last night. So that continues to be. As manager Bob Melvin describes it, a fluid situation. We got some blisters

to worry about. On h former a l s I Young Award winner Corey Kluber and also Noah synder Guard, both of them complaining of blisters after their last start. Syndergard has been pushed back a day to Sunday, didn't affect him as much. Klueberg did not look as great in his out in King Felix. He expects to make his next start for the Seattle Mariners, dealing with a groin issue. I already told you Speeds and spitting statisticians, saying, get away from King Felix. Felix Hernandez, in my opinion

is done. He is a fantasy fo Gazy. The Phillies manager Pete McKinnon has said he is concerned about closer jen Mark Gomez could be Hector nor Reese in the mix for saves if Gomez does not get his act together. Speaking of closers out in San Diego, Carter Caps worked to simulated inning today. He may be able to come back there, saying towards the end of this month, Speeds is saying that Carter Caps will probably be be in the mix for saves out there in San Diego. News

and notes on the NFL Big One. Marshawn Lynch, with the permission of the Seattle Saw Seahawks went to visit and talk with the Oakland Raiders today. Uh to potentially be come a running back out there in his hometown of Oakland. Get it while you still can while the Raiders are in Oakland before they wind up moving to Vegas or maybe even San Antonio. In the interim, there apparently is a smoke and fire trade market going on for Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman. The market is heating up.

I've heard Philly is interested, but now we're hearing that the New England Patriots may be interested, especially if they lose or trade Malcolm Butler. Remember they signed Stephen Gilmour from the Buffalo Bills already early on in free agency, Leonard Fournette was down the two hundred and twenty eight pounds at l s U pro Day. Remember the concerns for him was was he too big of a grind

out back? He is lighter and look and when faster than many people thought, running the forty at the combine at four point five one C. J Anderson, Denver Broncos running back may not be ready for O t a s still recovering from he is knee injury. Philip Rivers not to San Diego, the Los Angeles Chargers, all right, he's saying that he's actually okay if the charges Go didn't draft a quarterback, saying and I quote not gonna be there forever. And as you know, Tony Rodomo has

moved on. He's gonna be the number one broadcast team with Jim Nance on CBS. So that brings us to that poll question, what are the Texans wind up doing now that Romo has moved on. We got the poll options up there on that fn T s Y radio Twitter handle. You could also always, if you want holler at me at spitting Speeds on Twitter, give me a follow. You could also always ask questions and I'll get them answered on the show. But here's my take on this

poll question. The Houston Texans have one of the best defenses in the league, you know, and that was even without J. J. Watt last year Jadeveon Clowney taking a step. Now, yes, they lost some people pieces, they lost a J. Boullier in their secondary and free agency, but you gotta figure this is still going to be a strong defense, and they got weapons signing Lamar Miller last year, obviously DeAndre Hopkins. So I don't think they draft and try and groom

the future quarterback. I also think this is a scheme where they are not gonna want a running quarterback. So the blacklisting of Colin cap for Nick and obviously of r G three, I think that um that continues. And whilst Tom Savage is a serviceable backup, I don't think they are excited with what they have to consider is a quote unquote win now team. So that to me means if I was answering this pole, I would say that they are going to look for a pocket quarterback.

And the two choices I have there and Ryan Fitzpatrick and Jake Cutler are interesting to me. Ryan Fitzpatrick has experience with the Houston Texans. He was he was down there in Houston. He knows how to chuck it up to DeAndre Hopkins. He'd be able to test it out with a Will Fuller down down the field as well. But I think Jay Cutler might be the right fit. You know, Jay Cutler was connected to the Jets before

they signed McCown. I think Cutler is waiting for like that on that playoff contending team to be interested in speeds. The spitting statistician is picking smoking Jay Cutler to maybe the next quarterback of the Houston Texans. Let's keep the cipher going. I want to talk about the NHL deciding to not take a break for the two thousand and eighteen Winter Olympics in South Korea. They have decided they will not suspend the season as they have and you know,

I can see a lot of sides of this. First of all, the IOC has been getting free labor forever from like the best athletes in the world. They get the best golfers in the world, the best basketball players in the world there and you know, but now they're actually asking these pros, these NHL players to pay their own way and pay for their own room and board during the Olympics. I don't think that's you know, I

don't think that's right. I can see how also the NHL teams, the league's you know, these assets are these players are commodities, right, And what happens when they get hurt. We've seen it happened so many times in the WBC that players are getting hurt. You know, there's there's the injury risk. There, there's a pause to kind of the season momentum of the NHL and what would be the middle of the season in February in two thousand and eighteen next year. But this has landed very poorly with

the Players Association and with the players themselves. The Players Association is really saying that this is such a miss opportunity to promote the league and promote the great game that they have. But here's the thing. Some of these players are just gonna go anyway. We've already heard word that Alex Ovechkin is saying he is gonna just go and play anyway, you know. And I think a lot of other players are gonna be kind of guilted into

this representing their pride of their country. All our new listeners on the American UH Forces Radio Network obviously understand about the pride representing your country, and um, I think this is gonna cause I think this is gonna cause a big problem moving forward, and especially you know, the um the KHL, the Russian League is not going to change, So all these Russian stars, they're gonna wind up going. It seems like Russia still, you know, controlling the narrative

when it comes to hockey here. So I I wind up thinking, What's one what's going to wind up happening here is the NHL is gonna reverse their stands. But I want to hear from you at eight four four eight four three six seven nine, what do you think is this? Is this just a lose lose situation for everybody? Because I think so let's keep the for going. Patrick Ewing, former Nick's Great, former Georgetown Great National champion, with the Georgetown Hoyas in four has been named the new head

coach of the Georgetown basketball team. And I gotta tell you something, this is a long time coming for Patrick Ewing. Fifteen years spent as an NBA assistant, never really got a chance. A lot of people are saying that his intellect, his basketball intellect, has been underestimated for a number of reasons. Some of them saying because the Ewing was just bad with the media, that nobody wanted to give him a job because of the pr of it the media training.

Other people are saying, you know, there's this narrative that when former players become coaches that they're only like point guards that the big man. To be quite honest, the narrative out there is that they're not smart enough, that they're too dumb. And I don't think that's the case with Patrick Ewing. Okay, what I want to see is will Patrick Ewing be able to recruit? Being a coach in the NBA and being a coach in college are

two very different things. In college, it's really all about recruiting. Is he gonna be a get into those families, living rooms and tell people and sell why they should come to Georgetown and stay. I don't know. On the con side of this, Youing teaches a defensive and rebounding and tough kind of style that he had at Georgetown that he had with the Knicks. That's not the way the game is going. The way it's going the u c

l A Golden State Warriors spread and shoot. But I do think you and will be able to recruit whoever the best big men are in the country. Who better to learn from if you are trying to get to the NBA as a big man then going to Georgetown having the tutelage of Patrick Ewing I like that. Youing has also reached out to other former NBA guys that are making the transition, including Chris Mullin over at St. John's basically reviving the big time Big East. I mean, boy,

And once again big shout out to our new listeners tonight are Sports Byline listeners and of course our American Forces

Radio Network listeners. So here we go. If you're looking to make a little bit of money tonight on DFS, I'm already telling you what Speeds tells you to do. With Speeds has stacked the starters. You gotta focus on the starters. That's where you're going to get it in. Today is an interesting day because you got a lot of SP three's going. I'm gonna tell you who I thought you should have been playing. I would have gone

with Jacob deGrom today at undred on fan Duel. I like his strikeout per nine rate last year at eight point eight strikeouts per nine UM at home in that Cavernis Ballpark. I like him. The reason is because I'm trying to beat Chris Sale. I don't think Chris Sale was worth it today. I'm a little bit worried about the adjustment period that needs to happen, you know, going from Chicago to the Boston Red Sox. This is his first start for the Red Sox. I think he's a

little geeked up today. I would have looked to go elsewhere. I don't think he was worth the eleven hundred eleven thousand, four hundred price on fan do well if you wanted to go down a little bit, I do not use cold Hammels today because he's up against that Indians lineup, and I think that they are stacked. I think that's

a big time offense. I keep on scrolling down. I would also, like my man Tony Sencata said on the DFS Lineup Lock Show a little bit earlier, on today, I would not be using rich Hill, even though he's home, even though he's against that Padres lineup. I don't think he's worth the nineties hundred myself. He did not look good this year in spring training, and as Benny Riccardi made the point, I think they are he's not really fully stretched out. They're kind of babying him in his

return from injury. I think ninety pitches is his max as well. Here are some lower price guys that I like, and you can still get them in your lineup if you got that late switch option, which I know you do on the fan Dwell, I'm looking at um for sixty seven hundred on fan Duel. I'm looking at Darrell Cotton. Drell Cotton who starts late night tonight against the Los Angeles Angels. The Angels have Mike Trout and absolutely nothing else.

I like cotton strikeout rates when he came up in the second half last year, and in that what is a huge ballpark with a ton of foul territory that can only help the picture. So if you don't want to spend up, which I usually do, or if you're playing draft Kings where you need two pictures after Jacob deGrom, I would go all the way down to Darrell Cotton,

who's listed at sixties seven hundred on fan Duel. The other low pitch picture, the low price picture I want to give you today is Houston Astro starter Charlie Morton. Charlie Morton is gonna be facing the Seattle Mariners. He's only listed at sixty four hundred on fan Duel. And here's the thing I look for guys, that have noticeable actual differences from year to year. Charlie Morton's fastball has been up to even touching nineties six miles an hour.

That is a big difference from where he used to sit. That is an actual noticeable change. I'm gonna give him a shot against the Seattle Mariners tonight at only sixty four hundred. But you know what else we gotta do. It's opening day or it's opening week, right, it's the it's it's opening week. I asked earlier in the week, what what's your favorite part about opening day? Is that the optimism for your team is at the kind of

start of spring or is it fantasy baseball? And a lot of people did, in fact say fantasy baseball, which I respect, which I understand. But you know, there's just so many other things that go with the season. There's so many things that make me feel like, oh yeah,

the dull rooms are over. And one of those is when I think about going to the ballpark, I think about what I think about what to eat at the ballpark, and so what I wanted to do here on the Fantasy Freestyle and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network is speeds and Spend statistician. We don't do all stats here, okay, for all our new listeners. Sometimes we put the fun in functional sports radio. So I want to do a little bit of that as well as we cross the

bottom of the hour here on the Fantasy Freestyle. So what I have are the top ten craziest food items that are set to debut at Major League Baseball stadiums this year. And I wanna, you know, if you wanna chime in and let me know what you think about these, whether it's my man Chris Bavona on the ones and twos, or whether it's you out there at eight four four, eight four, three six eight seven nine. We can make that happen. Now, I'll tell you first as I go

through these, there's a couple of trends. Okay, there's a lot of derivatives on your standard hot dog where people are just you know, doing crazy things to the hot dog. And some of them, though, some of them have fish involved. And I don't know if when I go to the baseball game if fish is really what I'm thinking of, But we'll see as we go through the list. And um, I also want to say that any food that uses

funnel cake at its bread gets my vote. So let's see what are the top ten food set the debut around Major League Baseball stadiums this year. First in Toronto, you've got the Truro Desert poutine. Now this thing looks absolutely crazy. Okay, um, you know you got a little vanilla ice cream, you got a little caramel. Uh. It's looking pretty good. But it's only at number ten on my list. If you go north to the border Toronto, you can get that. If you go down to Miami,

you can get the taco dog. Okay, you can get the taco dog ins taco and it's hot dog. Okay, it's basically like a regular hot dog, but it's top with all your kind of taco stuff. You know, you have a Jack Tja Pico the Guyo not bad. It's our first hot dog derivative that we have going so far. If you go out to Boston in Fenway Park, you can get a lobster poutine stack. Remember I told you I don't know how I feel about fish at the ballpark. You know, I don't know if I'm trusting fish at

the ballpark. But at Fenway you can get lobster, which is you know, it's it's it's the lobster covering fries. You got the lobster meat cheese. Kords chives. I'm not a lobster guy, but if you're gonna get lobster, I guess the only place I would trust it at a ballpark would be in New England at Fenway number seven on this list. If you go out to Los Angeles two Chevez Ravine, you can get a tuna poke bowl. See. Now this is something that I I think it's a

little bougie, a little fou fou. Okay, sure, pokey, I guess is great. If you know, if you want to have some raw fish at the ballpark, I guess maybe again the coast is where you want to be. I don't know. You get some soy sauce and mom a, but it looks a little too healthy. It looks a little too healthy to be at the ballpark, if you ask me. Now, coming up at number six is my personal favorite. Out in Kansas City, you can get something

called the Sunrise Dog. Okay, and this is in essence, in essence, what this is is a hot dog, what a bacon, egg and cheese wrapped around it? Okay? And to me, this looks amazing. I am a sucker for bacon, egg and cheese myself. You're just gonna throw another kind of meat in there and hot dog. Sign me up for it. I might have to make a road trip to Kansas City, but again a derivative, I'm a hot dog. At number five on this list. In Houston, you can

get a spam grilled cheese sandwich. I don't know if I would advertise that spam is what's in the sandwich, you know? To me, that was like, uh, that was always like the bad meat. You know, like if you didn't have anything good, you would try and get some spam. I don't know. Go to d C if you want to see a Nationals game this year, you can get the Miami South beach dog, sounding similar to the dog

down in Miami. Um. But you know, if they make long eighteen inch hot dog, you got pineapple onion rings on it. You know, I think that's uh, it sounds like beach cheese and nothing. Nothing says beach to me than onion rings, I guess. But and uh, you know, Tay Steve, if you're going down to Washington, UM, Now we get to the top three. If you go to Chicago and Wrigley Field, you can get the bow to the Pork sandwich. Okay, this thing is basically like pulled pork,

but it's kind of got a little Asian fusion on it. Okay, you got pickled carrots, you know, you've got cucumbers, you know, some some Asian vegetables on it. I think that's an interesting combination with the pulled pork. You can get that

at Wrigley. Now we're going to the last two. And this is like I said, Like I said, when funnel cake is used as bread, which is really all you need to know, Okay, all you need to know is that like funnel cake by itself would be pretty ridiculous, right, but no, no, no, we are just merely using the funnel cake as bread. Here. Um, you can get a pulled pork patty melt in the Kansas City at Kaufman Stadium down there for the world. If you go see a Royals game, this is pulled pork. Okay, fried onions,

shredded cheese, Monterey Jack cheese with bacon, and hollopenios. And then remember the funnel cake is the pieces of bread. So you got at least two funnel cakes with all that goodness in between. I think that's a little bit crazy. But the number one thing you can get did you go down to Arizona and taking a Diamondbacks game? You can get a chicken funnel cake sandwich. So remember the funnel cake as bread. This is actually with a chicken sandwich in there. I think that's a little bit crazy

and includes you know, black pepper cheddar. You can get strawberry jam on two, which is another crazy flavor to get with the funnel cake and the chicken. I don't know you even get maple syrup on it. I think that's a little crazy. But I decided here on the Fantasy Freestyle to celebrate opening Day and Opening week when we say take me out to the ball game. Wanted you guys to think about all the things you could. Uh, you know, it's it's more than the peanuts and cracker

Jack these days. Check it out. But remember what you really need to know. What you really need to know is that you can still switch it to Darrell Cotton and think about Charlie Morton if you want fades and if you want low, low cost plays today in DFS. I like that part of the slate. Check it out. When we come back, we're gonna do Mr Bovona, I know you're excited. We're gonna get into our TV Greatest

of All Times tournament. We got some big time matchups coming in the Drama region and in the Animated region. We're gonna check in on the polls. We're gonna keep on having fun because we put the fun and functional sports radio. I'm gonna boyd Dane Martinez Speeds the spitting Statistician. The Yankees have tied it at one down there in Tampa as well. All that and more when we come back once again, thanks to the Sports Byline listeners and

of course the American Forces Radio Network. This is Dame Martinez Speeds and spitting Statistician on the Fantasy Freestyle and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. You know what it is. It should Boyd Dane martine As Speeds the spitting Statistician. You're listening live to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We're doing big things here. Remember I gave out Jacob deGrom. He's already got three strikeouts through two innings. Pitch helping

you in your fan duel lineups. That Yankee run was the first home run of the season from Jacoby Ellsbury. I'm telling you right now, maybe the Yankees need to trade him right now. His stock may never be higher.

But check it out. If you've been listening to The Fantasy Freestyle, if you've been listening to Speed and Spitting Statistician for a little bit, for a little while, you know, if you're not one of our newest listeners from the Sports Byline or from American Forces Radio Network, we welcome all of you, guys. I want to catch you up on something we've been doing a coinside with March Madness.

We were doing a sixty four television show bracket Okay, we called it the TV Goat the Greatest of All Time, where the Fantasy Freestyle we were going to crown the greatest television show of all time. The way we've been doing it is we've been having the polls up on

that f N T s Y radio Twitter handle. You could also check for it for me at Spitting Speeds on Twitter, whether it be for the TV Goat Tournament, or if you just want to ask any questions, we'll get them read out here on the show being broadcasted now across the nation and across the world. Quite Frankly, it's a great honor if you want to know the truth.

But we're getting it down to it because, as you know, North Carolina was trowned as the national champion on Monday, so we are going to crown a champion this week as well. And we um we got two of the four final four representatives are known because of our polls that we did earlier this week on Monday. Okay, so so so just to reset it. And my man Chris Pavona, who's wi me on the ones and two today so hot that we sweat steam there he is. Um. We had the finals of the Sitcom region on Monday and

it was Chalk. It was the number one seed seinfeldt against the number two seed, the Office, and you know, with a lot of votes that went down, Seinfeld moves on and moves into the final four of the vote it beat Office and then remember other shows, Curb your enthusiasm, cheers, all in the family, good times, friends, it's always sunny in Philadelphia, and others were represented, but it will be Seinfeld as the greatest sitcom of all time moving into

the final four. We also did the reality bracket on Monday and Chris this has been where a lot of chaos has ensued in the voting. The regional final was the Real World versus Cops and with six the vote, Cops moved on. So forget about all these other reality shows, Amazing Race Duck, Dynasty, Survivor, American Idol, America's Top Model, Jersey Shore, The Apprentice. Cops will be representing Reality TV in the final four. Today we have two incredible matchups

were crowning the champion of the animated region. It's number one seed The Simpsons up against number two seeds South Park. Okay, these are iconic animated series, So get on out there and vote right now on f N T, S Y Radio. And Chris, I know you like both of these shows. Where do you think this one is gonna shake out? Ah? You're talking about The Simpsons. Simpsons and South Park is

the animated final tonight. I this one's really tough, and I know we talked about this on the producers well, I mean Pete Pete on Sentry and myself talked about this on Sunday. And it's gonna be one of those it's gonna flip. It's I think it's gonna I'm personally voting for south Park, but only because I grew up with South Park. I find them a lot funnier today. Um, but I think in the end, I'm pretty sure that the Simpsons are gonna beat him out. Listen, get on

out there and vote. At the end of the show, will update you on the polls that I threw up at the top of the show, will let you how know how the people are voting. But please get on out there f n T s Y Radio on Twitter. You could also find the polls at Spitting Speeds, your boy, Dame Martinez Speeds and Spitting Statistician holding you down. And then we got big boy matchup. Going to the drama region.

A lot of people said that all of these dramas could have been a final four themselves, but to decide the regional champion, it is the number two seed, breaking Bad. Big shout out to my boy Benny Riccardi with that line off lock Show before us here in the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Or is it Sopranos? Big shout out to my boy Mike Blewett on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Sopranos and breaking Bad. Will it be Heisenberg or will it be Tony the Don That is a true champion. Uh.

Chris Bavona, how do you feel about this matchup? This is a battle of Titans? Huh? This is really should be the championships. Could be a championship matchup. That could be the championship matchup. Where do you think people are gonna go here? I think in the end, I think everybody as much as they look. I can sit here and talk about how much I love the Sopranos. Everyone's gonna go that was the worst worst finale ever, one of the greatest ever. Breaking Bad is going to move

on to the final four. All Right, There you have it. That's Chris Bavona's take on these matchups. I I kind of disagree with him. I have not seen the voting just yet. We're gonna give you the results. Well where the results stand. A little bit later, towards the end of the show, I think South Park could do it over the Simpsons, and I wouldn't be surprised. I agree with you. I think Breaking Bad could make it and joined Seinfeld and Cops. Cops is the Cinderella story here.

We'll see how We'll see how the voting goes before we get out of here tonight, I'll definitely update you guys. Remember you can vote at f n T s Y Radio at spitting speeds, and if you want to holler at me at eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine, you can do just that here in the Fantasy Freestyle. Remember I gave you my picks already.

I gave you those news and notes. At the top of the show, we talked a little bit about the NHL not playing in the Olympics and how a lot of Russian players, specifically or vetchkinok, because the KHL is not being suspended, that that really positions Russia to be the big time favorite in the two thousand and eighteen competition. But here's the deal. I kind of see the NHL side of this because you know, we see what happens

when Paul George gets hurt playing for Team USA. We see all these injuries where Deed Grigory and Drew Smiley and Seth Lugo get hurt at the w BC, so I can understand them not wanting to risk that. We also talked a little bit about how Patrick Ewing finally got his job head coaching now the Georgetown Hoyas Big shout out to Patrick Ewing. I like that, But there's a couple of lot of the topics that I want to talk to you about here before we get out

of here. Where we put the fun and functional sports radio. That's what we do here. Besides giving you what you need to win your leagues and win that cash. We have some fun as well talking about the NHL and so. The craziest story ever as it relates to hockey, Chris Truell, who was the goalie for Quinnipiac Quinnipiac University kind of a college hockey power if you want to know the truth. Chris Truel is the goalie for this squad. He has

a very interesting allergy. Can you guess what it might be, Chris, hockey goalie? What do you think it might be the worst thing to be allergic to as a hockey goalie? Ice? Correct, Chris Truell, This guy is allergic to ice. He's allergic to ice. A big shout out again to all my American Forces Radio network people, because this guy served in the the Air Force. Okay, and when he was doing a training exercise, but that it was only in forty degree weather, he got frostbite and cold burns all over

his body. That's when they realized that he had this allergy. Okay, he was actually forced to leave the Air Force. He transferred to Quinnipiac, where he became the goalie. But he has to like keep moving during UH timeouts and dead dead whistles and things like that, or else he's gonna wind up get stiff. Check this out. This is what Trule says. You'll see me skating around the lot, stretching my legs, moving my arms. If I start to feel my body stiffen or my skin begins to tighten and

feel uncomfortable, I absolutely have to keep it moving. He's been keeping it moving to an eight ninety nine safe percentage in twenty one games for Quinnipiac. But I think this is absolutely crazy. A goalie allergic to ice. I mean, I'm allergic to like pesticides that they spread on fruit skins. I'm allergic to some shellfish. But to be a goalie allergic to ice, that's absolutely crazy. My man, Chris Pavona,

what are you allergic to? The Only thing I know for a fact that I'm allergic to is a medication called sklore. Okay, I otherwise I have no allergies. Well, we'll find out about that. You're still a young man. You can discover some of those allergies on Saturday. Oh, you got a birthday coming up? Uh, so you're an Aries Speeds. The spitting statistician is also an Aries. I've got a birthday coming up as well. We'll talk about

that on air. You know, happy birthday to me. Maybe Tony Sincata and Benny Riccardio give me the Super DFS line up for that Major League Baseball slate on Monday, April seventeen. When is uh? When's my birthday? When'd you guys? Chris? Uh? Saturday? Fantastic? You got any big plans this weekend? Actually, my girlfriend's parents are coming in. Uh, Mama, Mama and daughter are going to see bon Jovi. Gonna be hanging out with

uh with potential father in law. You're taking the Rock and Riley's here where we have the Fantasy Studio thirty four here Rock and Riley's right across the street from Madison Square Garden in the shadow of the Empire State Building here in New York City. Check it out. If you've been listening to the Fantasy Freestyle. If you listen

to speeds and spitting statistician. One of the things you know, I've been talking about is this Floyd Mayweather potential fight with Connumer Gregor, And I'm gonna tell you over the weekend there was just yet another example of how crazy and over the top and opulent the Money Team and Floyd Mayweather is. Floyd went absolutely ham for his son's Zion sixteenth birthday. You know, remember they used to have like an MTV show. I think it was like, you know,

my six crazy birthday parties for kids and stuff. We'll check this out Zion Mayweather upon turning sixteen. His party had live performances by Young Thug. His party had bottle service, his pottle. His party had all sorts of you know, game machines and vending machine and and and arcade machines and stuff like that. He even had what they called

the money machine. You ever remember those old game shows where you used to stand like stand inside a glass cube not very unsimilar to Studio thirty four here for the Fantasy Sports Radio network, and they would just like put money in there and it was like how much you can grab in thirty or sixty seconds, and that's how much you can keep. Well. They had one of those at Zion mayweather sixteenth birthday party. Oh and yeah, he got a new Mercedes Benz from his dad for

his sixteenth birthday party. I think Floyd may need to start instead of worrying about showering his son with gifts, he may need to start worrying about Connor McGregor. Listen, everybody's saying that Connor has no chance against Floyd Mayweather. I beg to differ. I think this fight would be far more competitive then you might think. I think it's gonna happen. Freddie Roach was talking about it, Dana White's talking about it. Now, Floyd and Connor themselves and talking

about it. Where there's smoke, there's fire, I think this is gonna happen. Speeds and Spen statistician calling his shot. I think this happens in the year two thousand seventeen. I think this happens in November where they always have big fights. You know, single Demia weekend. We're a little bit too close for that. The next time they do

big fights is usually in early November. I think that's what's gonna wind up happening, and you're gonna see Connor McGregor flight Foyd Mayweather, and let me tell you something. Connor's awkward south park style is not something that Floyd is used to. Let me tell you something else. Connor is just so much more of a bigger man. Okay. He was one of the biggest I guess it was lightweights or flyweights in UFC history. And you know he's

not gonna be scared of Floyd Mayweather. Mayweather, by is mostly a defensive boxer anyway, a counterpuncher, a defensive guys who likes to win the rounds by scoring, not by really knocking out his opponent. Okay, let me tell you something. The other thing that I think is overlooked in this and I heard and I heard a UFC trainer talk

about this yesterday. What the trainer said was, when training for a UFC fight eight, say Connor McGregor, he would have to, you know, contend with the boxing, the wrestling, the jiu jitsu, the other mixed martial arts and be able to defend yourself and prepare for all of that. It's kind of like when the Wildcat was in the NFL and you had to prepare for so many different options. Well, now you know, moving from that to Floyd Mayweather, who is just a stand up, you know, great skill technician

and boxer, but a defensive counterpuncher at that. I think um the fact that he only has to prepare for one style and the fact that Connor McGregor is just a much, much, much larger man than Floyd Mayweather, I think this is going to be an issue. And remember also Floyd hasn't fought in about two or three years at this point since his last fight, So I think this is going to be a very very interesting. Look, I don't care what Zion gets for his birthday. We're

gonna start. He's gonna start getting into training. He needs to get into training, because I know Connor McGregor is gonna take this very very seriously. So there you have it. We put a little bit of fun and functional sports radio. I'm your boy, Dain Martinez. Whether it's hockey goalie is allergic to ice, whether it's breaking bad verse sopranos, we are going to get it in. When we come back, I'm gonna have a couple of minutes.

The Bay Rays continue to touch up Michael Planta. They now have a four one lead on the Yankees in the bottom of the second Nationals closing the gap to two to one after three in our Nation's Capital. And uh, the Baltimore Orioles are up on the Blue Jays two to one down in Baltimore that game in

the bottom of the third. However, if you listen to me, I told you to start Jacob deGrom He's pitching were well. Five strikeouts through three scoreless innings, helping you win that cash today in DFS, remember we put up some polls were crowning the greatest TV show of all time. Right now in the finals in the Animated region, the number one seed Simpsons Chris is up on south Park, but it is close with over a hundred votes in there. There is still time to vote and it is very close.

If you want to try and flip that, you still can. And then in the Drama region with over a hundred votes already, and big shout out to everybody that's voting on f n T S Y Radio also hollering me at spitting speeds on Twitter. Remember I'll answer any of your questions on the show. We are five days a week, seven to eight p m. Here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. But coming out of the Drama region right now,

and it is very tight with over a hundred votes. Um, we have breaking Bad with only fifty with fifty two percent of the votes and Soprano with with forty eight percent of the votes, So that is very very close. There is still time out there. Uh, we want to see who will represent us in the final four a little bit later on here on the Fantasy Freestyle as we crown the greatest TV show of all time. The other poll we had up. The other poll that we had up is what should the Texans do now that

Tony Romo is headed to CBS. You guys want the Texans to get a running quarterback, either Colin Kaepernick or r G three. Remember r G three did play in Texas down in bail or in college. But I don't know. I don't know if Colin Kaepernick is a fit down there in Red state Texas after his anthems and all that, all those protests. I think maybe just ride with Tom Savage. Tom's abbage and or would you guys have of you say, draft the future quarterback this year to compete with Tom Savage. Well,
