that we wrap on the beautiful thing. Yeah, this is Chris Bafona giving you the on the way back, Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle. Martinez the spentting statistician right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Like I said, we gotta lead with this again, and it is not usual on the Fantasy Freestyle where we lead with NBA news, especially in the off season. But I have become enamored with the plight of Kyrie Irving after his trade demand.
He wants to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers. He apparently wants to go to a team where he could be more of the focal point out of the shadow of Lebron James and remembers. They're kind of going back and forth on social media with their posts. You know. Kyrie Irving also unfollowed Lebron James on Instagram. I reported that yesterday on the Fantasy Freestyle, I was telling you that Lebron is working out with guys like Derek Rose maybe the new point guard for the Calves, along with Eric Bledsoe.
There's been some talk about bled so in any kind of deal or three way deal and somewhere involving some of the big stars. So far this summer um there's news though today a lot of people are now reporting that apparently Kyrie Irving is not talking to anyone from the organization. The Cleveland Cavaliers can now not get ahold of Kyrie Irving. So not only did he unfollow Lebron James,
it sounds like he's ghosting the entire organization. One report out there from Jason Lloyd of the Athletics says that he is quote unquote not talking to anyone from the organization because he's quote unquote said enough already apparent. Apparently this is real. I think there's now at this point too much smoke for there to not be fire in this situation, and I think ultimately they will move on from Kyrie Irving and see what they can get back.
According to Pablo tore Though of ESPN, he's saying that Kyrie Irving really wants to wind up with the New York Nicks. Okay, he is a Jersey kid. He didn't, in fact tweet out that he's coming home. We thought that was a mock to Lebron James when he did that whole thing going back to Cleveland a few years ago. But keep an eye on this. I think something actually
may happen. I could see something like Kyrie for Carmelo and a pick, or maybe Kyrie for Carmelo and this year's first round pick, the kid Frenchie Frank, we should see. But keep an eye on this. Maybe Kyrie Irving charged his own course and it finds his way back home to the New York metropolitan area. So we're gonna keep an eye on that. Of course, on the fantasy freestyle.
But what I want to do here is go into Major League Baseball tonight so you can help, you know, get you what you need so you can win that cash. First of all news and notes from around Major League Baseball. I've been saying it now for a month. With the trading deadline approaching, the Marlins are still open for business. I told you they were looking to sell off almost everybody. You've heard names all the way from d Gordon to
Giancarlo Stanton. They've already moved at Savaria. We've talked about a J. Ramos. They already moved David Phelps I said, however, there were some names that they thought were gonna be untouchable, Guys like Kristin Yellis, guys like Marcelo Zuna, maybe guys like JT. Real Muto. One of the names that was in that kind of untouchable group is no longer. And I'm talking about their starting picture, Dan Strelli. They say
they are now open to moving Dan Streli. He's had a good season so far, three point eight for e R a one point one eight whip. And here's the thing, he is signed under team control until the year twenty. You would think that maybe a new owner does want to hold those kind of cheap assets that are under team control. But the Marlins are saying they are open for business, including Dan Strelli. The Twins. This is interesting. The Twins are now fielding calls on Irwin Santana and
Brian Dozer. And guess what, They're also fielding calls on a picture that they traded for themselves a few days ago. Behind me Garcia went from the Braves to Minnesota. After that start he had in l a where he hit a Grand Slam and they were thinking about pulling him from that start. He eventually did go to Minnesota, but apparently he since that trade. The Twins of lost like four or five in a row, and they are now
moving from buyers to sellers very quickly. Speaking of deals, we have a deal that made uh you know, made sense for both teams and is complete today in the last hour, the New York Mets and the Tampa Bay Rays have struck a deal. First baseman Lucas DooDah is going to go down to Tampa. The Mets in return get minor league right handed pitcher Drew Smith. He was
the thirtieth prospect in the minor leagues. Doodo will probably wind up being the everyday d h for Tampa as they continue their chase of the wild card in the al least them in the New York Yankees right there behind the Boston Red Sox. I told you also watched the closer market. As we go into the trading deadline. In Oakland, the closer to situation is fluid. There are reports that Santiago Cacilla may lose his job. He got
the lost last night. Maybe the next man up could be a guy they acquired in the trade with Washington that sent Doolittle and Madison to the East Coast. They remember they got Blake training and he might be in line if Cassilla continues to falter um sad news here the Nationals have played Steven Straussburg on the ten day d L. He's got that right elbow nerve issue. Um. They are saying that this is kind of just a precautionary measure. He may only miss one turn through the rotation.
That they want to be safe rather than sorry with their number two starter as the national steam ahead towards the playoffs at least, and reports also while in l A, the Dodgers with the best record in the National League, they have been looking for another starter to kind of be right behind Clayton Kershaw, to be right behind Alex Wood when they get to the playoffs. And they're saying they are now confident that they will in fact trade
for an ace. The name is out there. Johnny Quado, justin Verland there has been linked to the Dodgers for a long time, along with Justin Wilson, their reliever and now also Sunny Gray Sonny Gray seems to be real hot on the market. I think he's gonna go in the next seventy two hours somewhere, and uh, the Astros may be focused on a guy like Sonny Gray as well. Listen, it is Thursday. By the time I have my show on Monday, on the trading deadline July thirty one, it
will all be tied up. But there are going to be a lot of moves made because so many teams are still in contention for playoff positioning. So tonight, though tonight, there's only five games on the slate. Okay, your high price guys or Chris Archer, John Lester and these guys are at ten thousand on FanDuel or above. But I don't like either one of them. Okay, Archers playing against the Yankees in the Bronx. Remember the Yankees score runs, especially at home. So I'm fading Archer and Lester. I
don't like either. Here's why. If you listen to the DFS Lineup block show with my men Benny Riccardi and Tony Sencada, one of the things they talk about all the time is how the Chicago White Sox hit left these well, and that's the situation there in tonight against John Lester in that crosstown rivalry. So here's two guys that are cheaper that I think could do well for you. First of all, Zac Godly at eight five hundred on
FanDuel he's at St. Louis. But I've been talking about Godly as well as some of these other Diamondbacks pitchers for a long time. You know my man Robbie Ray as well. But Za Godly and his last four starts thirty two strikeouts in twenty three innings pitched. Okay, that's him going six innings. That's him striking out eight guys every six innings. I think that's a nice start. I like his k upside tonight. The other guy I'll give you,
remember I'm fading Chris Archer. How about his opponent for the New York Yankees tonight, C. C. Sabathia is down at only seventies six hundred. Okay, CC has been great recently. In his not nine starts, CC has won seven of them and he's only given up nine earned runs in his last nine starts. I like that value. At seventies six hundred against the Tampa Bay Raised tonight, and of those nine runs, four when an outing against the Blue Jays on Independence Day, July four. Last night, though I've
been sick with it. I've been sick with it all week long. Giving you who you need to win that cash. I told you last night that Carrasco was high, that you Darvish was high. You Darvish only went three innings, he gave up ten runs. Carrasco only when six and two thirds and only struck out five. I told you, however, even against the offense of the Houston Astros, to go with Aaron Nola, what did he do? He went six shutout innings, he struck out ten as the Phillies beat
the Astros nine. Nothing. Hopefully you listen to your boys speeds the spitting statistician there. The other guy gave you last night, which was Jake Arietta. I said he was priced a little high, but I like the right handers against the White Sox, not the left handers like they're facing tonight. Harietta did well, got the wind, going six and two thirds, only giving up two runs. So both of the guys I gave you last night were better than both of the high priced options. That's the way
you gotta do it. I think you can do it again tonight with C C. Sa Athia and Zach Godly. That's what I do here on the Fantasy Freestyle. I'll help you win your leagues and win that cash. But it's not just me, Okay, everybody here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Tony Sincada, Benny Riccardi, Greg Sussman, Mike Floorial, Frank Standfeld. That's what we do, all right. So when
we come back, we're gonna shift gears. We're gonna go to football because buzz is big right now in football, and I'm gonna tell you everything you need to know about the New York Jets ahead of the fantasy football season.

At your boy, d Martinez speeds and spitting statistician holding you down on a Thursday. I hope you're almost ready for the weekend. As we slide from July to August, middle of the summer. Man, hope everybody's having some barbecues, enjoying their casual fridays and things of
that nature as we keep it moving. I know I am here at Studio thirty four at Rock and Riley's let's get into the cipher here because we gotta get into some news and notes around the NFL. And I start in Baltimore. Okay, Baltimore. They have not had a good start to training camp. Okay. Earlier in the week we heard about how Kenneth Dixon was supposed to just get a little trim on his meniscus. When they went in they realized there was a full repair, and odds
are he is going to miss the entire season. We also hear word that they're starting quarterback Joe Flacco has a back issue. Okay, little bulging disks, things like that, and he is preparing to miss four to six weeks. They're saying it could be an extended absence that would get them all the way basically through the preseason and almost to the start of the regular season. So both Kenneth Dixon and Joe Flacco very early on have injury issues. Remember I wasn't that high on the Baltimore Ravens to
start out with. Let's stay in that division. I have some things about the Pittsburgh Steelers, who I do think are the favorites to win that division. First of all, stud running back, you know I love him. Call me on my bell phone, Levian bell Avian a prayer. He did not report to camp as camp opened for the Pittsburgh Steelers today. Okay, here's the thing. We know. His contract negotiation has been in the news for a long time. He was franchise that sort of stuff. He wants to
play for fifteen million. He wants to be paid not only like a top running back, but also like a wide receiver too, and there is good rationale for that. With the way Levan Bell has been playing, He'll be fine. He will report to camp. This is just him kind of like making a point in my opinion. What it does do, though, is it gives Reps an opportunity for James Conner, who is their backup, this guy out of pit. I love James Conner. I think it's a great story.
Came back from Themphoma in his college career is really a kind of, you know, a good guy, and so if he can get more opportunity field his skills so that ultimately he'll be viable in the NFL, I got no problem with that. Sticking with Pittsburgh, another guy I've been talking to you about for a while is their wide receiver Martavis Bryant. Remember Martavis bryan who was suspended all of last year is coming back. Remember he was tweeting in the draft and there was beef with him
and Eli Rogers. Remember I also told you that I was fading him because I didn't believe he was a kind of like reformed and back to being a contributing member of the team. Him and Ben Roethlisberger we're going at it with kind of quotes in the media. I thought that was bad. We'll check this out today their GM, the Pittsburgh g M Kevin Colbert says, upon his conditional reinstatement in April, Martevis Bryant was made aware it was
only the beginning of a process. We have been informed by the NFL that Martevis is still in that process of being fully reinstated. Apparently Martavis Brian can take part in off the field team activity, but is not allowed to practice or play in preseason games. So there is still a long way to go for Martavis Brian. Remember there have been times where guys like Josh Gordon I thought was gonna get reinstated and then there was still hurdles.
Maybe Martavis Bryant still will. But I'm telling you I have said for a while I am fading this. I do not think that it ultimately ends well for Martavis Brian. Remember, with this, we are finding that he's not really like fully officially reinstated just yet. Remember yesterday I told you also that now the training camps have opened, is we're gonna go into all these stories about buzz about buzz about people who are like looking great and opening eyes
at training camp and that sort of stuff. So I got a few stories like that, you know, taken away the grain of salt. But apparently DeVante Parker in Miami quote unquote blew up the first day at camp and impressed everybody. When I previewed the Dolphins a few days ago, I said, DeVante Parker is a guy who I just don't trust to actually ever break out. He has injury concerns as well, with the coaching staff is hyping him up. But guess what, that's what you do with guys who
need to take a step. You start to fill them up with confidence. Similarly, in San Francisco, we have a guy that I have been talking about for the last few weeks. In San Francisco, we're talking about running back Carlos Hide. Remember how I said that Carlos Hide was not a fit in that scheme, how Carlos Hide was injury prone, and how the forty Niners in that new regime invested heavily in new running back Joe Williams out of Utah. I believe it is well now they realize
though they can't go too far with it. You know what I'm saying so g M. John Lynch today says that Carlos hide Qute unquote looks tremendous. I think this is just them playing nice in the sandbox so it doesn't get ugly. I still believe that Joe Williams is the back to own this year in fantasy football for the San Francisco forty Niners. Down in Washington, tight end Jordan Reed. As you know, he too is injury prone. Okay, they are now saying his toe injury may actually be
related to compensating for a previous ankle issue. The fact that he already we're talking about his injuries, this is when he's supposed to be at his best health for the season. The fact that we are already talking about injuries for Jordan Reid does not bode well for the Washington football team or for any fantasy football owners. That's why I am fading Jordan Read at the tight end position. I am not going to invest that draft capital on
something that is not safe like Jordan's red. Also and the Broncos running back room I reported I believe yesterday that Davante Booker had a fractured wrist and that he's gonna miss some time. The Broncos have addressed that by signing former Patriots former Lions Stephen Ridley is now in camp with Denver, competing in that running back room along with guys like Jamal Charles and obviously see Jay Anderson.
All Right, like I said, we're gonna talk New York Jets here and and let me have this disclaimer first. I am a Jets fan, have been for a long time. However, I believe the Jets are going to be the worst team in football this year. I believe the Jets are going to finish with one or two win something like that.
I think they are actually doing this on purpose so that they can be in the running for the number one overall pick because there is not one, not two, not three, but four legit franchise quarterbacks coming out next year in the draft. You hear me talk about hashtag suck for Sam all the time. But just like every other team, we are going to go position by position and tell you if there's any value. First of all, at the quarterback position. Listen, Josh McCown, no, I don't
like that. Christian Hackenburg, No, I don't like that. There's no reason to be involved with anybody in the quarterback position. I actually do believe that Christian Hackenburg is going to get the bulk of the starts for a couple of reasons. One, they have to find out what they have and two, if you're a team that's tanking and wants to finish one and fifteen, secretly, you run out Christian Hackenburg. There is no kind of fantasy goodness. I don't care if
you're in a two QB league. I don't care if you're in a super flex league. Stay away from the Jets quarterback at running back. However, my man Boom Boom Baila pal Pal Blow Pal has been underrated for years. He was backing up LaDainian Tomlinson, backing up Chris Ivory, backing up now Matt Forte. I actually think that blow Powell is going to be the most useful running back on the Jets. Listen, last year he had seven twenty
two yards and three touchdowns. He also worked like fifty eight receptions, which was tied for fourth in the NFL among running backs. Okay, and I think he is going to prove his worth over Matt Forte because I also think that the aging Matt Forte when he's on a team that's like two and eleven, two and twelve. I don't think Matt Forte has much left to play for, especially with this team. He doesn't owe much to this team. Okay, why would he bust it for a bad squad and
it's not even his real team. He just signed last year. Blow Powell I think will be the running back to own. I actually have him within my top twenty five. I've so does Corey Parkson the Fantasy Executive. Okay, I have them as a low RB two, a definite flex play in like round six or seven. Balaal pal is a viable option. I am as running back nineteen on my rankings. Corey Parsons, the Fantasy Executive has them slightly lower at
running back twenty three. But we're all in the same range low end r B two depending on the size of your league wide receiver. If you listened to the Fantasy freestyle all last year, I guess it was called shot callers back in the day. But you know that my Jets wide receiver that I love is my man quincy E Noonwa. And I'm gonna tell you why. I'm gonna tell you why someone has to get you. Even though I hate McCown and Hackenburg there, they still will accumulate,
you know, thousands of yards in the passing game. And without Decker, without Brandon Marshall, I do not trust really Robby Anderson to be the one. I do not believe any of these rookies that Chad Hansen's there, Derris Stewarts, guys from last year like Sharon Peak, Jalen Mark, so I don't think these are the guys. I think Quincy E no No NOA is the de facto number one, and like who usually say with the Jacksonville Jaguars garbage
time points, they still count in fantasy. This guy had eight hundred and fifty seven receiving yards last year, and I expect that to jump over nine hundred, maybe even over a thousand this year. In fact, he is one of my hashtag sleeper weeks here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we're doing sleep a week. I think Quincy E Noir could be a sleeper. I have him ranked pretty low. He's my wide receiver forty six, but he
could go up because someone has to get production. You could do much worse if you're like in the tenth or eleventh round. You could do much worse than a guy like Quincy E Noona. Let me also tell you another one of my hashtag sleeper weeks. Here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we're doing hashtag sleep a week. Another one of my sleepers as their tight end, Austin Safari and Jenkins. Let me tell you why. Okay, a lot of people be what please, didn't he have like
a substance abuse problem? He did? And did is the operative word. He has been cleaned now for six months. He was in rehab. He's not drinking, he's not doing the drugs anymore. I think that's good. He also dedicated himself and his back in the gym. He lost twenty pounds. I think that's good. I think the fact that the Jets are moving from the chan Gailey offense, which did not have a tight end role really for the last few years, to the Morton offense is more West Coast.
I think the tight end is going to be viable. And remember, if it is Christian Hackenburg, if it is Bryce Petty, if it is Josh McCown. These kind of quarterbacks, they love the safety blanket of the tight end. There's not threats on the outside at wide out, like we just said, Austin Safarian Jenkins. And here's the other reason he's actually suspended for the first two games. No one is gonna be drafting him. You could get him very
very late, and I think he could be a viable option. Okay, when we come back, we're gonna talk a little bit more about the Jets because you gotta pull question up. We're gonna see what you guys think about them. We're also gonna find out if their newest signy is actually lucky to be on their team. Find out what I'm talking about when we come back.

Boy Dane Martinez speeds the spitting statistician Chris Bovona the Bounty Mont dropping a little far side on there for you, a little drop. When I hear that, the drop, you know, I always think about the Beastie Boys as well. But that's what we do here on
the Fantasy Freestyle. We dropped stats over beats right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network from seven to eight pm Eastern time, we're covering you on. You know, it's like afternoon rush hour out there on the West Coast. So if you're stuck in traffic on the four oh five or the five or the ten, whatever it is out there, big shout out to all my l A drinks as well. Um, you know, Fantasy Freestyle, that's what
it is. We were talking about the New York Jets, and unfortunately we have to continue talking about the New York Jets. And this is coming from a Jets fan. Listen, my grandparents had season tickets when the Jets played in Shasee Stadium. I was there for the fake spike game against Dan Marino. I was there also against the Dolphins when Dan Marino and Kenny O'Brien combined to throw for over nine yards and the Jets beat the Dolphins fifty one to forty five on the strength of too late
touchdown catches by Wesley Walker. I was in the building when Jumbo Elliott caught a touchdown pass for the Monday Night miracle. But those are the days of the past. This this season, I expect them to win one or two games and let me go into their schedule. Okay, if you go into their schedule. Unfortunately, the Jets are going to be underdogs all sixteen games of their season, including Week five at Cleveland, including when they host the Buffalo Bills on Thursday Night Football. And you know, I
always loved the home team on Thursday Night football. You always fade the road team on Thursday Night Football, except for when the home team is the Jets, you know. So I don't see them having many wins. This pole question we have up much like yesterday when I couldn't do my regular poll question for the Patriots because I knew what everybody would say, so I had to do it relative to their over underwind total with the Jets the overall wind total it's four and a half. So
the question is, how do you play this. You take the under on four and a half, do you lean over, take a heavy over, think they're gonna do well, or do you pass and not have any action on that because you think it's a good number. I'm telling you right now, I actually a strong on this play, and it's taking the under. When I look at this Jet schedule, I do not think they win five games. I have no idea how anyone can think they will win five games. I think they are actively tanking in fact, and as
a Jets fan, I embrace it. They're gonna build up their lines, they're gonna build up other things around the quarterback, and then try to get their quarterback in the draft next year. And that's evident by them giving Christian Hackenburg a chance to see what they got. That's evident by them, you know, getting a guy like Josh McCown, who was obviously just a bridge to the future. I think you need to take the under because I think the Jets are going to be one of, if not the worst
team in football this season. And this is unfortunately coming from a Jets fan, and right now, six of you agree and you agree that you should take the under. Seventeen percent say lean over, say pass, do not put any action on this line. And ten percent of you, one out of every ten of you say heavy over, which means you think the Jets are not only gonna go above this four and a half line, but that they may have a chance. I don't know what's heavy over that. Do you think they can win seven games
or something like that. Let me bring the bounty hunter in here right now. First of all, what do you think about this poll? Are you in agreement with me? You're taking the under on the Jets? And if you needed anybody on the Jets on your fantasy team, who would it be? Would it be Quincy in Non No, would it be my man balal pal Boom Boom, bilal pal Pal or someone else Bavona? Who do you think? What do you think about the Jets? There's absolutely no
doubt in my mind. I will absolutely take then they're on this Okay, I almost want to think that they I don't think they're gonna go owen sixteen, but one in fifteen is definitely not out of the picture. Let me ask you, though, real quick, what do you think has a better chance of happening the Jets going o N sixteen or the Patriots going sixteen and no, I'm gonna go with the Jets going oh in sixteen. Okay,
I can see them tanking much more. I think that the Patriots will lose a couple of year and when they already have home field advantage in our fourteen and one going into week six seventeen, maybe they rest some guys stuff. Exactly. I do have a question for my Dynasty football team. Where I have David Johnson? Is my RB one? I can only I can only hold on to to per position. So you already got David Johnson.
I've got David Johnson, and I have Belio Powell. Other than that, I only have C. C J Anderson and C J. Processe uh. Out of those guys. Out of those guys, he's find that have him as a loan my my r B two. Yeah, I like him better than C. J. Anderson because I don't like that denver Um backfield. Remember they just signed Steven Ridley today. You got Jamal Charles in there, you got Booker coming back, and who's the other one? You got CG. Procise, Yeah,
you got Thomas Rawls there, you got Eddie Lacey there. Yeah. I think Bilal Powell is the number one running back at least. Um, some of those other guys you mentioned were not the case. I mean C. J. Anderson would be the other way, But um, I think Bilal Powell does a lot more including is it a PPR league. Yeah, so I defer to Bilal Powell, especially because, like I said, Bilal pal was fourth in the NFL among running backs
last year with fifty eight receptions. I think that's pretty good, and I think he is going to ultimately get a bigger share of the opportunity as the season goes along, when they realize that blow Powell is in the team's future plans whereas Matt Forte is not. Let me tell you someone else who is in the Jets plan. And I think this is kind of interesting. I don't know if you've been following the story of Lucky Whitehead over the last two or three days. Lucky Whitehead is mostly
a special team specialist. Okay, he's like a kickoff returner, that kind of guy. Okay, a special teams kind of guy. Was on the Dallas Cowboys as cowboys opened camp over the weekend. Okay, check out what happened over the weekend. Um, Lucky Whitehead was arrested on charge of petty theft. They said he stole something from oahwah Head in the mid Atlantic. Okay, and uh, he was arrested and the Cowboys in response cut him. They cut him right away. Okay. They didn't
want anybody who had this kind of issues. Um, you know, so you would think that means that Lucky white Head was kind of unlucky. You know, he's got arrested and got cut from the Dallas Cowboys right then, earlier in the week, a couple of days ago, it comes out that you know what, it was a case of mistaken identity, that Lucky Whitehead was not the guy who was, you know, should have been charged on this petty theft that he didn't appear in cord or whatever the case maybe, and
the charges against this Lucky Whitehead were all dropped. So to me, that's him once again being lucky, right. You know, he went from unlucky getting arrested and cut to being lucky. It was a case of mistaken identity. He's all good and then guess what happened. He got signed by the New York Jets to be their kick returner, so he went from the Dallas Cowboys to the New York Jets. Ultimately,
some could argue that that is once again unlucky. So here's my question, Chris, do you believe Lucky Whitehead is lucky? Over the course of the last week. I mean, they thought he was gonna be arrested, he got cut, turns out he's not mistaken identity. It's all good. But then he signed He signs with who many people, including Speeds, thinks it's going to be the worst team in football. Is this man lucky? Yes, he is. Why do you say that. I think he's very lucky because he's not
in jail. But it wasn't him. He didn't do anything matter. I can't listen. What's his name of the hurricane, Ruben Carter? That was a mistaken identity jail? Okay, fair enough, and he went to jail for a long time. You're absolutely right. I don't know if many of our listeners know about the story of the hurricane. Maybe they know about it from the song or the movie where Denzel Washington played him. So that's interesting. You know who wouldn't know about this?
In my opinion, um my man, JP the night Owl, Night Owl, if you're listening, I want to hear from you, and if you knew about this reference you know who else I don't think knows about this, my man, Intern Matt. The reason I bring on both of them, Chris, did you know that today is National Intern Day? Oh? I did not know that. Yeah, it's National Intern Day. So right here on the Fantasy Freestyle, I want to give a big shout out to Intern Matt holding it down,
cutting the audio up for me. I want to give a big shout out obviously to JP the night Owl, who's produced some shows, even come on with me before big shout out to both of you guys. The other thing is, Chris, you're bringing up these movies right so you know we where we've got to go from here. We have to go to us continuing to look for the greatest sports movie of all time this summer here on the Fantasy Freestyle, we are trying to crown the
greatest sports movie of all time. And I gotta tell you the truth, Chris, in the last few days, you know, in this second round, you know we've got like one Seeds going up against you know, movies that are and as big and stuff like that. We've had a lot of blowouts recently, you know, we've had a lot of blowouts recently. For example, Hoosier's one with eighty one percent of the vote, Space Jam one with eighty percent of the vote, Field of Dreams yesterday one taking home eighty
eight percent of the vote. You know, we had uh, the water Boy advancing to the Sweet sixth scene with seventy eight percent of the vote. But today we have a matchup in the wild card region and I'm telling you right now, Chris, I don't know if you've seen it or not, but it is very very close. Alright, big shot out of course to everybody who was voting out there at F and T s Y Radio on Twitter, and you could always vote on the polls, You could
always follow me, you could always ask me questions. We respond to them on the show. Um at Spitting Speeds is the name right there? Okay, we got somebody. We got a poll question that's up right now, to be quite honest, and it's on the uh you know, we got this greatest of all time movie thing right here in the wild card, we got a racing movie up against a golf movie. Okay. The number six seed in this region is Tin Cup. Tin Cup beat Raging Bull
in the first round to advance. It is going up against Talladega Nights, The Bob the Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Ricky Bobby, who was a fourteen seed and pulled one of the biggest upsets in the first round by taking of the vote against the karate kid who I thought was gonna go far in this tournament. So we got Talladega Nights, Ricky Bobby up against Tin Cup. Okay. So in Ricky Bobby, you know, we're talking about if you're not first, your last, and we're talking about, you know,
praying to that sweet baby Jesus. And in Tin Cup, you know, remember he was going around the entire course with a seven iron. That's something I like to do Allso, oh um, Chris, how do you see this playing out? Let me get your vote right now. Let's see if you can impact the vote, because you always have hot takes when it comes to the movies, and right now, I gotta tell you it's been going back and forth right now, Talladega Nights, Ricky Bobby has of the vote.
Tin Cup the sixth seed has forty nine percent of the vote. Chris Pavona, where are you going here? So as much as I love Kevin Costner going for the twelve, yes, I wouldn't take the drop. We just keep on firing and going into the drink. Let me tell you something that's gonna be one of the most memorable twelves of all time. It was one of the memorable. I don't find it to be Kevin Costner's most memorable sports movie. Sure,
I mean, we've got Field of Dreams still in right. Oh, No, of course, we got a number of Kevin Coston movies. We've got a number of Nick Noltea movies still in here. We got some Adam Sandler still involved. What what do you You don't think it's his biggest sports movie? Am I am? I to say that you think Kevin Costle's biggest His Field of Dreams, his biggest, absolutely Field of Dreams. And when it comes to this mashup specifically, I go again,
I'm going with our audience on this. How in the heck would anybody not want what not wanting to go fast? And that's that's why I'm voting for talent Digga Nights. Okay, you you mentioned bull Dorm. You know bull Dorm got just beat in the last round by the sand Lot or else. That would have set up a bull Dorm versus Field of Dreams matchup in the Sweet sixteen in the baseball region. It did not happen. It did not
happen because the sand Lot interrupted that. So far, the only time we have had the same actor facing off in a match up here in this tournament, when we had the Longest Yard against the water Boy, we had Adam Sandler and Adam Sandler. I know some people think about the older version of the Longest Yard, but remember we're talking here on Happy Intern Day. The guys like JP and Intern Mike, they're thinking with that recency bias, so they thought of the Sandler version of Longest Yard.
So we you think Talladega Knights is the answer, huh I. However, you know, I gotta tell you I really love tin Cup because it's kind of this underdog story. I mean, he qualifies and he goes for it. I like tin Cup. I'm lobbying for tin Cup. Chris Bovona is ill being for Talladega Knights. We shall see you still have time to vote. Okay, we are almost done with the second round.
When we are are, we will release the final Sweet sixteen and we're gonna start making those Sweet sixteen votes next week on the Fantasy Freestyle, and I have a couple of guests next week breaking it down for us as well.
