Of course, we're gonna catch Chris up on a lot of the fun and functional sports radio we

have been having. I'm gonna be giving you my starting line up in major in Major League Baseball for the weekend, because I've been hot with these starters, and I got a couple of people, a couple of diamonds in the rough for you a little bit later on at first base if you need to replace Freddie Freeman, for example. We also we got big news with this conomer Gregor Floyd Mayweather fight. We're gonna get into that, you know we've been following that. And also at Pimlico tomorrow that

will be the second jewel of the triple Crown, the Freakness. Yo. If you're listening to the Fantasy Freestyle, I gave you the Kentucky Derby winner. I'm about to give you the Freakness winner. Stay tuned for that when we get into the cipher. So many ways to holler at me if you want. You can follow allow me at Pitt and Speeds. We gotta poll question up at f n T S Y Radio. You can holler at me as well at eight four four eight four, three six eight seven nine.

We're gonna do a lot of things. It's good to have my man Chris Bovona in that chair so hot that you sle steing. We're gonna catch him up. Have a lot of fun here on the Fantasy Freestyle. My poll question for you is which NBA favorite will lose first? Will it be the Cleveland Cavaliers, or will it be the Golden State Warriors, or will it just be whoever

will loses Game one of the NBA Finals. We'll talk about the poll all sorts of other stuff when we come back here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. It is a happy hour Friday year at Rock and Riley's. Let's get it. It's starting to feel like springtime, all right, come on back, yeah, yeah, We're back at it here Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. It's your boy Dane Martinez holding you down.

If you want to get at me this hour you kind of date four four eight four or three six eight seven nine. You can also get at me at Fantasy Radio at spitting Speeds. We got that pole question up there right now, but it's time for us to get into my starting lineup because I've been hot on Major League Baseball, giving you what you need to win that cash. News and notes from around Major League Baseball

for the weekend. It looks like Jason Heyward will be activated from the disabled list for the Chicago Cubs on Saturday, coming back from a finger injury. Here's the question, though, what impact will that have on the rookie hap and his playing time. This is a guy who's been eligible at second base and at outfield, has been playing hitting in the cleanup spot some days this week, hit a couple of home runs in his short stint. Will he

go dock back down to the Miners? Will they try to find a spot in the lineup for him like the Dodgers did for Bellinger just a few weeks ago. Robinson Canoe, It looks like he will be back in the Mariners lineup coming back from that quad injury early next week. Good to hear that. On the football side, though, Justin Turner left game versus Marlons yesterday with hamstring injury. It looks like he is gonna wind up on the

disabled Let's remember the ten day d L now. Sometimes people are quicker to go on the d l and save people in essence from themselves. Good and bad news for the Toronto Blue Jays. On the good side of things, Josh Donaldson, with that CAF injury, is going to start a rehab assignment next week. Maybe he will be able to be back with the parent club um by the

end of next week as well. However, Troy Tolwitsky it looks like his return will be delayed that returning from a hamstring injury, so keep looking for other options At shortstop. Tyson Ross to begin a rehab start coming back from a shoulder injury. For the Texas Rangers hasn't really pitched this year. That would be a nice little addition to their rotation, if you know, if he gets through rehab. He's always been injury prone though, Tyson Ross. Let's keep

it moving though. What I want to talk to you guys about. First of all, as I hold myself accountable from yesterday, the startings that I told you to start. Listen, I told you what was going to happen in Atlanta when Julio Tehran and Marcus Stroman linked up, I said, because you know, last night's slate was crazy. There was like four or five games on the slate. I did not like the pitching matchups at all, and I told you about that. I said, the guy you're gonna need

is in Atlanta. But I told you that Julio Tehran has the crazy home road splits, that he had an over eight e r A in Atlanta and an under one e r A on the road so far this year. I told you to get away from Julio Tehran. And I also told you in the first game without Freddie Freeman, that Marcus Stroman was the place to go. Well, Tehrran gave up nine runs in three innings, raising that e r A above eight, whereas Marcus Stroman got the win when a scoreless five and two thirds was only one

out away from that quality start. But he did get you a win and scoreless innings and six strikeouts. So I'd say that's another shot called by your boy Speeds, the spitting statistician. So I asked you what does that mean for this weekend? Well, tonight, I think he gotta go with the chalk. I think Chris Sale at ten twelve thousand, excuse me on fan duel at Oakland is the way to go. He has been striking out at least ten guys. I think something like seven starts in

a row. I also love the Oakland Ballpark. We've talked about the ballpark factors a lot of times here on Fantasy Freestyle, and I love all that foul territory in Oakland. I love Sale there. I don't you know, guys like Yonder, Alonso and Stephen Vote in that lineup even because if they hit better against right, he's Sale coming at them. I think he is the chalk. And remember the A's have the second lowest run total in the American League at a hundred and sixty two. Anyway, I'm fading the A's.

You gotta pay up for Chris Sale tonight. If you don't want to pay up. The only person I would say, if you want to go down to eighty nine hundred, you can get uh Alex Wood. We got a commercial here in Fantasy Sports Radio Network where you hear Frank Stanfell and Mikey Florio're talking about, Hey, I gotta it for the Wood would have been sixth lately, twenty nine strikeouts in his last sixteen innings pitch. He is at

home against the Tampa Bay team and they're pitching. He's facing you know, Justin mcclino, who was in essence kind of like you know, a journey no name kind of picture. I like Alex Wood to get a win for the Dodgers tonight, and only that could be somewhere you go on Saturday. Listen, you got Serzer going against the Braves, no Freeman in that lineup. I like Scherzer, I do. I tell you that sun Trust Park though, is giving up home runs. But I still like Serzer and the

other guy i'd like on Saturday. Look at my man, Robbie Ray. You know he's gonna strike people out, Okay, going up against the San Diego Padres. I think he can strike a lot of people out in that matchup. Um in San Diego is also a pictures babball park. I like the park factor, and the upside of Robbie Ray on Saturday was probably the cheaper option. Obviously, Serzer would be the chalk there on Sunday, though, you Darfish at Detroit is a guy that I'm looking at. Um

he's facing Matthew Boyd. Matthew boy got rocked in his last out and got like Darvish for the win on Sunday there and Brandon McCarthy um for the Dodgers against the Marlins on Sunday. The Marlins still have yet to even announce their starter, so, um, I think the Dodgers are sitting pretty in that one. Okay, So that's something I want to let you know. But we've talked about Freddie Freeman a little bit here, and Freddie Freeman, as you know, kind of got hit by a pitch, broke

his wrist. He's gonna be out for the next three months. So if you know, if this was your guy saying like season long fantasy, okay, if this was your guy in season long fantasy, your man speaks. The spitting statistician is here to help you with who you need to try to consider and look at, to try and pick up and maybe potentially, you know, get some reasonable facts simile of the same kind of production you were getting from Freddie Freeman. Check out these three options at first base.

None of them is owned in more than forty pc of league. So it's viable right now. If you're at happy hour on this fine day here in the East Coast where it's starting to get you know, very spring and summer like. It's nice out. People here outside on the rooftop at Rock and Riley's studio thirty four. If you're in the area, come on buy say Speeds, the spitting statistician has a shot on me, and I'll back it up for you. Don't worry about it. But here

are three first baseman I think are interesting. First Logan Morrison. Logan Morrison for Tampa Bay is eligible at first base. He is actually over the last two weeks number thirty five overall in the entire player Raider within eight seventy eight ops in the last two weeks, twelve Ribbies, five homers. He's only twenty two percent owned. This is a guy with eleven homers already so far this season. He hits in the clean up hole. He hits in the four

hole of that Tampa Bay lineup. So while Tampa is not a huge offense, he is in the middle of it. He will be in the middle of a lot of those opportunities, and he has been hot lately. At only owned, you could probably go out there and find yourself a little Logan Morrison. Another guy if you know he's taken in your league or that's not kind of your fans, that's okay with me. I ain't mad at you. Okay, I'll give you two other guys. What about Justin Boor.

Justin Boor has been sick lately, Okay, in the last two weeks. In his last fourteen games, he has had a one point three oh five o ps. Okay, a one point three oh five ops in the last two weeks, and he is only fifteen percent owned. Okay, you could think about this, but here's my main recommendation. Okay, if you just lost Freddie Freeman only thirty cent percent owned justin Smoke out of Seattle. He has been on fire fourteen ribbys in the last two weeks, ten runs a

one point one to one ops for Seattle. And remember Canoa has been out of that lineup. Seeger has not been doing much. It has been Nelson Cruise and not much else for the Seattle Mariners. Okay, justin Smoke is only thirty seven percent owned in most in uh most formats. Okay, you can if you and your way are at the bar, you and two of your people are at the bar right having happy hour right now. Only one of the three of you are in a league where justin Smoke

is owned. Okay, and I'm telling you right now, if you lost Freddie Freeman, or if you need help at first base, any other way, justin smoke is the way to go. So you could win your leads and win that cash. That's how we do it here on the Fantasy Freestyle, which boys feeds the spitting statistician. But there's so many other ways that we hold you down.

We got a little bit of news and knows we're gonna check in on the poll. We gotta talk econom

McGregor and Floyd Mayweather. Is this gonna happen? What Speeds thinks about it? And I preview the second jewel of the Triple Crown, the Preakness going on tomorrow in Pimlico. Give boy Dame Martinez Speeds the Spitting Statistician Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the fantas the Freestyle here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. It should boy Day Martinez, a k a. To Spitting

Statistician bringing it to you live. If you want to get at me, you can this hour okay at f and T s Y Radio on that Twitter, that tweet machine that everybody likes to use so much. You could also follow me at Spitting Speeds. We got a lot of stuff to cover. I got my man Chris Bavono with me. Lawn warns into is so hot that we sweat steam, so hot that we are melting West Antarctica as we speak. The polar ice caps are diminishing all

because of the heat. Here on the Fantasy Freestyle, on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, News and Notes around the NFL. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed Ryan Fitzpatrick to back up Jamis Winston. A lot of things. I think about this. I'm telling you, I'm sure that's gonna make the Colin Kaepernick crowd angry because now there is another, you know, backup level quarterback that has found work while Colin Kaepernick has not. It looks like now with the music stops,

only he and r G three are still left out there. Remember, I've been telling you for a while that the fit is Seattle. I've been saying it because Trayvon Boykin has had his legal trouble and the you know, it's the same scheme. You could have a mobile quarterback up there as well. Keep an eye on that next week. Jock Quiz Rogers my man Pop Quiz Jack Quiz. They say he lost ten pounds in the off season, that he looks spry, making good cuts, looks fast. They say that

about everybody though in the summer training season. Um, Remember though, Jack Quiz will be the starter. It looks like four the Bucks at least in the first three games because Doug Martin has that p D suspension to deal with. Okay, Also reports out of Pittsburgh indicate that, you know, second round pick Juju Smith Schuster, the wide out out of USC could actually have a legitimate sized role in the

slot next season. Remember he's gonna be going for that number three role, most likely against Eli Rogers or maybe Sammy coachs. Remember Mark Tavis Bryant is back from suspension. And also remember draft like that tweet that Martavis Brian had saying that j Drew was in fact Sammy coach replacement. There was definitely some drama in Pittsburgh around that. Mike Tomlin had to even say, play nice boys. So keep an eye on the number three role, the number two

and three role in Pittsburgh. And also, I didn't get to this yesterday, but gall wife of the greatest living American not in my opinion, apparently that's his nickname TV twelve Tom Brady, she said, and I think it's like good Morning America or something. That he has had multiple concussions that nobody talks about, and that he had one this year. The only problem is that Pat's never put it on the injury report. So now Tom Brady is coming out and denying that he had a concussion last year.

I wonder what that pillow talk man. That pillow talk does not get on the injury report. And interestingly enough, in a related story, Drew Breathe today came out on the Dan Patrick Show and said that he doesn't know if he would even tell his wife if he did have a concussion. Trying to you know, separation of church and state. There, don't want to anger or potentially upset the family. Keeping a moving here in the cipher on

the Fantasy Freestyle. I gotta tell you though, guys, listen this Conor McGregor Floyd Mayweather fight, which we have been talking about for months. You know it come out of retirement and it's about a side and the B side. Well, Dana White broke some news saying that the first and most important part of this historic contract has now been officially signed off on. Congratulations to all the parties revolved involved, and we now await Al Hayman and his boxer signature

in the coming days. It seems like it seems like uh, Connor McGregor has signed. It seems like Connor McGregor has signed to fight in a boxing match against Floyd Mayweather. The question is will Floyd signed. The rumors that Floyd is gonna make around a hundred million dollars for this and that Connor will make seventy five million dollars for this. I'm gonna tell you something. It's going to be a boxing match, so of course Floyd Mayweather is gonna win.

But let me play Devil's advocate for you for a little bit. I'm telling you right now, Connor McGregor is the bigger man. I'm telling you right now, Conor McGregor has an awkward South par fighting style, which is something

that has troubled Floyd in the past. I'm telling you that Connor gregor only has to train against one discipline, unlike usually when he's in m m A having a train against jiu jitsu, karate, kickboxing, wreck recor, rolling, wrestling and boxing all rolled up in, you know, the embodiment of his one opponent, and they're gonna be using UM boxing gloves instead of you UFC slash m m A gloves. That's another edge for Connor McGregor because they're kind of heavier,

you know, so that's another edge for him. I I, you know, I think that Connor could give him a little bit of a problem, but ultimately what's gonna happen is that Floyd is just gonna outclass him and win on points, probably all twelve rounds, probably a one twenty two one away kind of score, very similar to what we saw at a Camelo Alvarez and and uh Julio Caesar Chavez Junior a couple of weeks ago. Just a complete mismatch. If that's the way it'll probably go down.

So I have a I have an idea. I have an idea for this, and I can't front. I got it from you know, Greeny, Mike Greenberg on Mike and Mike. He was saying that what they should really do is, if this is a ten round fight, they should have the first nine rounds be regular sanctioned boxing and then have the tenth round be straight up UFC rules. Wouldn't that be dope? Wouldn't that be dope? If Floyd if Connor McGregor, con says, can you know, last the first nine rounds and let him let him go all at it.

Let him go all at it in round Tennessee, if he can knock him out or take him down in more UFC rules, That's what I think should happen. That would be real funny. We're obviously not gonna see that Floyd's gonna win a boxing match after he signs on the dotted line. I'm saying that's gonna happen this weekend, and when we're back here on Monday, we're gonna have news that we have a deal in place for Connor

McGregor and Floyd Mayweather to fight. Let's keep it moving though here on the Cipher and the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, I want to get into the Breekness, the Breakness, the second jewel of the Triple Crown. They go off on Saturday tomorrow from Baltimore and Pimblico Racetrack.

Now listen the night be the day before Kentucky Derby, I had my man Benny Riccardi here on air with me and we gave you that the winner was going to be the five that was gonna be always dreaming and this let it don't get it twisted though. When we aired that on Friday Always Dreaming was not the favorite. Classic Empire was the favorite going into the Derby, and um, Always Dreaming was actually like tied with the second choice with another horse, McCracken. So it was not like I

was just like on the favorite. Okay, I gave you the reasons why. The reason I liked them was because of that combination of Pletcher and Velasquez. Okay, the owner and the jockey of the horse. That's that's that's what I really went with, and that was the winning combination. So we gave you what you needed to win that cash. Here's the difference on the Preakness. Okay, there's a lot of things you want to see. First of all, in the Kentucky Derby, Always Dreaming had the absolute best trip

of any horse in the field. Okay, he had a good trip. He was clear of basically the demolition Derby that took place at the start behind them, and he was able to then show his class kind of then in the after the turn, hit the turbo button and win that race. Okay, here's the problem. Two things. One, Always Dreaming is going off right now with the Prefness at four to five odds. He is not he is such a heavy favorite that you are not gonna win any money on Always Dreaming. I think, okay, sure, you

want to put him in your exotics. You know you want to build exotics, and you know that's fine, but just straight when you are not gonna win any money on Always Dreaming. So I think you gotta look to beat the favorite in this race, okay, And don't you know, here's the thing. Always Dreaming is the twelfth horse since nineteen eighty to go off as a odds on favorite after winning the Kentucky Derby. Of the last eleven since nineteen eighty, only four of them have won the race.

So if you're gonna try and beat them, you got a decent chance, so says history over the last you know, thirty five years or so. So here's what I'm thinking. I got a couple of opportunities to try and beat the favorite. Although I do think Always Dreaming in Todd Pletcher is a great horse, and with Johnny v on them, listen, he is a deserving favorite. So that's what I will say.

He is a deserving favorite. However, I don't think you make any money with him, so I'm trying to beat him two or three ways you could do it one Classic Empire, the five horses going off now at like three to one, maybe four to one. He was the favorite for the Derby. Going into the Derby. He also had a horrible track. He literally got bumped by McCracken at the start. He had a swollen eye after the race, okay, but made a huge charge at the end to finish

in fourth place and actually looked pretty impressive. The other thing I'll say is that Always Dreaming had the advantage in the Kentucky Derby of the sloppy track. It was said that he get along better on the muddy track. It will be nice out in Maryland. It will be you know, hard, firm, fast track. I think that could favor Classic Empire. There also reports that he is doing very well in training. I kind of like Classic Empire at three to one as your best chance to beat

the odds on favorite Always Dreaming. But here's the deal with the Preakness. You're gonna have a much smaller field. You're not going to have those twenty horses that you had in the Kentucky Derby. Okay, you got a shorter track, It's a shorter race, okay. And also most of the true best horses that were in the Kentucky Derby don't take their shot again at the Preakness. Why because it's two weeks later and this is hard for the three year old horse okay to come back like that after

two weeks. So if you are going to come back, you gotta really think that you have a good shot at him. And I like what Classic Empire could do. He's one of only a couple of non always dreaming horses that are returning for the Preakness out of the newcomers. Though out of the newcomers, I like, check out two horses, the two horses that I think may have a chance, and I like the odds that they have. First, the number two horse, Cloud Computing, is going off at fourteen

to one. This is a horse that only had a couple of races but has improved this buyer figure every single time out. Just didn't have enough points to qualify for the Derby. He did finish third at the Wood Memorial and also interesting in the note, Javier Castellano, one of the best jockeys in the world, when had the mount on Generva on the Derby, chose to leave Generva to go onto this horse Cloud Computing, the two horse at going off at fourteen to one. I think you

need to put him in your exotics. This could be the best of the new horses that you did not see in the Kentucky Derby. Also Conquest More Money at eighteen to one. This horse finished second at the Arkansas Derby, second to Classic Empire. He has the ten post. He could be the speed of the race. He could be that horse that's out there early. And then, um, it's interesting. He's never finished worse than second. Conquest More Money at eighteen to one might be interesting. Let me tell you

who I ultimately like. Here's the superfecta for the Preakness. I liked Classic Empire, the five horse to win the race at three to one. Then I like the two horse Cloud Computing. I like Always Dreaming to round out the trifecta finishing third. And then, um, I'll say this a little bit later when we do the Belmont, But I like Geneva in the Belmont and a mile and a half fade that horse looking at lead at ten to one. He had his best effort ever finishing second

in the Kentucky Derby. So Classic Empire, Cloud Computing then Always dreaming, don't sleep on conquest more money as well. When we come back, I am very excited to bring in mom man Chris Pavona. We're gonna catch him up. It's been so long. I had a lot of stories that put the fun in functional sports radio. I want to see if Chris could gets the answer to some polls. I want to see if Chris knows what we've been

talking about. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Here speeds and spitting Statistician and Chris Bavona on the Fantasy Freestyle here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I'm on fire. Uh yeah, you know what it is. G Unit. That's my man, Chris Bavona dropping a beat so hot that we used to had steam here on the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network with

your boy Dame Martinez Speeds and Spitting Statistician. I gotta tell you, guys, we have not been together Chris Bavona and Dame Martinez for a few weeks, so it is time. We gotta Chris. We gotta catch Chris up on all the stuff that we've been doing, because you know, not only do we help you win your leagues and win that cash. But we put the fun in functional sports radio. We put up the polls, and you know, Chris, whether it was that TV Greatest of All Time tournet, you

were very interested in what the people said. You were very interested in what the people said, what the polls were. So we're gonna catch up on a couple of polls and start to talk about him. I will say this though, Chris, if you like that TV tournament, don't get it twisted this summer. This summer, I am building yet another big time viewers bracket or listeners voting bracket. I UM, I have narrowed down the topics. I have narrowed down in

some regions. We haven't finalized it and introduced it just yet, but keep an eye out for that. Okay, know I'll be on absolutely absolutely selection committee. My friend, don't sleep, don't sleep, you know. So here's my question. The first thing is, um, you know, we talked about Ryan Fitzpatrick getting a job with the Tampa Bay Bucks. We talked about Jake Cutler getting a job, and this is leading us people to believe, like what's up with Colin Kaepernick.

We've talked about this a lot on this air, you know, is there collusion going on? Is there you know? Is it? Is it a question of him just not wanting to accept a backup role? So I asked you, Chris, I put up a question, uh earlier this week, what is the biggest obstacle to Colin Kaepernick signing with an NFL team?

The options were collusioned by the owners, his actual quarterback skill set has regressed, fear of the pr backlash for whatever city signs him, or he is too much pride to take a backup job or contract with lex money. What do you think people said? So, I'm gonna say there's no collusion. I don't think the owners care that much about political They don't care that much. I'm to go with the fact that I think that just his

quarterback skills have you are absolutely correct. Thirty nine percent of our voters and we had two hundred people voting on that one, uh say the quarterback skill set? Thirty three percent safetear of the backlash, said Kaepernick and his pride taking more less money or a backup job, and only twelve said collusion by the owners. Um, so you're one for one, Chris for one. Don't get twisted Colin Kaepernick sucks. Okay, okay, you're wonderful one. Though. Let's see

check this out. Check this out. Um. You may have heard earlier in the week. You may have heard earlier in the week, we had conversations and uh debate around this Zaza Pachulia play with that set close out yep, yep, yeah, And then the next day we saw, in my opinion, it was even a more unnatural closed out by la Marcus Aldredge on Kevin on Kevin Durant, we actually asked do you think there was a bounty out on any

of the Golden State Warriors after that? But first things first, I put up do you think people thought that that play that injured Kawhi Leonard was dirty or not? The options were yes, it was, no it was not, or third option of it was dangerous but not dirty. My man, Chris Bovona, what do you think? The listeners voted from real from like from watching the highlight over and over again of seeing how Saja had had put his foot down.

It was looking a little too much like a Bruce bowing right, So I think it was a dirty play. Sixty percent of our listeners said that it was a dirty play. We got over four hundred votes on that when a lot of people were talking about it. Chris Bovona, you are too too so hot that we sweat steam, blowing up like a Samsung seven. Also, when it comes to the conference finals, we asked people, quite frankly similar

to our question today, what's gonna happen? Are both the Calves and the Warriors going to sweep their way to the NBA Finals. Your options were only the Calves sweep, only the Warriors sweep? Both do or neither do? What say you, Mr Bovona, I say only the Actually, I don't think either t sweeps. Really, I don't think either team sweez. I'm probably gonna be wrong on this. Seven percent of people agree with you, Mr Bivona, and say

that neither we'll sweep their way to the NBA Finals. Yeah, I say Calves, and I say Calves in five or six, and same thing with Warriors, probably Warriors in five. Okay, fair enough, fair enough. I'm very impressed with you. I'm very impressed with you so far, Mr Bravona. Here, as we put the fund in Functional Sports Radio, let me talk to you about some of the other topics that we have been getting into and uh don't get it

twisted though. If you are listening to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, what you need to do also download that app. This way you get free fantasy programming. It could be Greg Sussman. It could be Jake Seely, it could be Tony Sencada, it could be Mike's it could be you know, Mike Florio, Frankie Stanfell, or it could be coming up next on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, the Fantasy Black Book with my Man Joey Peace of Pizza and my Man who was just entered the fray here on Studio

Dirty for Maddie Moe in the building. Will find out what was going on with him, what they're talking about a little bit later on. But Chris, check this out. Um. Tomorrow, at an event called Deep Jewels sixteen in Tokyo, there's an m M A match featuring featuring it's a woman's match, okay, featuring twenty year old Momosu Yamatazzi and she is fighting a twelve year old girl. How do you feel about this, Chris, Um? I don't know. I think in Japan it's a little

bit different when it comes to uh combat sports. I don't think they don't really care about age. Your four for four, bro, This is no big This has got an incredible outrage here in the United States. No one gives a rats ass in Japan about this in fact not in fact? What if I told you this twelve year old has already had a hundred and fifty fights. What if I told you she was training since she was three years old. What if I told you she's in a gym where they specifically look for these kind

of prodigy. She's twelve years old. There's an eighteen year old that's already ten and oh in UFC Dane, I'm thirty three years old. You know how many fights I've been in? Three zero? Don't say that on air. I don't believe you. Bro. See there you go, there you go alternative facts very quickly coming out of Chris Bovona. He changes his story quicker than Sean Spicer. Okay, let's keep it moving though. Another thing, fair, fair, Okay, nice

for the clarification. I like the clarification. Thank you, Mr Bivona. You are, still, however, four for four in terms of how we've put in the fun and functional sports radio. Okay, here's the next thing I want to get at you, my man, Antonio CROMARTI is defying science. Are you ready for this? Yes, of course, Okay, so you know this, okay, So so here's the thing. Here's the thing. Um his wife, I think Tamika put it on Instagram. You know she's

pregnant again. Fantastic, fantastic. This is Antonio Cromarty's fourteenth child. That's not the incredible part. That's not the incredible part. I know what the incredible part is. It is it will be the sixth child that he has with his his lovely bride, his lovely wife. That's not the incredible part. The incredible part is that this will be not the first, not the second, not the third, but the fourth child that Antonio Comarty is having after a vasectomy. I know,

I know, I heard about this. That is justifying everything that is signed Antonio Cromarty. Strong like bull. I'm telling you, it gets no stronger than Antonio Comarty. What what like? What's the explanation for this, Chris Um, vasectomes don't work? Okay, okay, I can't think of any other reason other than the vasectomy didn't work, or unless he had I don't know, can it be reversed. I don't think so. I don't think that's the way these things work, Chris. No, I'm

almost positively don't work. Okay, Well, you know, big shout out to the entire Cromarty family is growing by the a. A couple of other stories that I want to get into you with, Chris, because you know, I mean, I haven't had you in this seat for about two weeks. I miss you too. I miss you two. A lot of love going on here at Studio thirty four on the Fantasy Freestyle, here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network,

of course. Big shout out to all our sports Byline affiliates around the country and with the American Forces Radio Network around the world. Shout out to the service men and women getting a little taste of home from speeds and spitting statistician helping them win their leagues and win that cash. Right now, though, though, I got my man Chris Bovona with me and so I'm trying to catch him up. We also talked um. We talked about Eddie Lacy. Are you familiar with all this stuff? Yes? I am. Okay,

So here's my thing. I'm taking a different stance on it. Okay, I have a different stance on it. I don't care about this weight incentive. I don't care. I actually think they should go the other way. The Seattle Seahawks offensive line was horrible last year. Why can't Eddie Lacy put on thirty pounds and become a great pulling guard for them? But that's the Honestly, I want Eddie Lacey as my running ground as a guy who has Thomas Rawls in the Dynasty League. I do not want Eddie Lacey to

be the goal line back. I want him as a pulling guard. What's wrong with this? We'll let the barbs be accurate here. You only don't want him because you've got Thomas Rawls. I understand that. I'm also a little bit jealous that I can get he can get fifty five K for being under two hundred and fifty five pounds, like I'm you know, Fantasy Network our man Mike car Donald does not have weigh ins for us, but if

he did, I'd be a little bit nervous. Even though it is beach time and I gotta get this beach body going, you know, And so you know, I do my thing, I do my I do my ISO metrics. I do my beak room yoga. All of this is obviously a lie. I think it's exercised. If I have to run for the subway, you know, I got asthma though. Two that's what it is, okay, but so you know, hey, we're doing okay. Though, we're doing okay. Um. But yeah,

how can Eddie Lacey? You know, like, I think I think he really should, like they need to, like George font On the offensive line over there, come on, But but you think it's okay to have clauses in your contra act that are that ridiculous. I think that this was a wrong move by the Seahawks. I think they're gonna have a pr like blow up on this, and

I'll probably trying to talk about it on Sunday. Um. If I was the Seahawks, I would probably just I'd honestly be like, you know what, Lacy, we want you to be like the fridge. I want you to get there, you go exactly. That's what I'm saying. When when most people zig, you have to zag. Last thing I want to tell you about here, Chris, I don't think you've

heard of any of these, Okay, I have three? There were three instances of athletes getting robbed over the weekend, and I want to ask and I want to ask you what you think is the worst scenario? Okay, out of these three? Out of these three, and then we're gonna tie a nice neat little bow on this episode of the Fantasy Freestyle and clear the way for the Fantasy Black Book to get it on where Joey Fiapi m Maddie Mo will be bringing it to you starting

at eight pm here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Okay, So, Kevin White, wide receiver for the Chicago Bears, was driving around in you know, one of the bad parts of Chicago, shall we say, and uh had had his had his Maseratis stolen from him, and it wasn't excuse me to check that it was his girl that was driving it

at the time. Okay. And there's apparently been a rash of these bump and run thefts in um in Chicago, where they tap your bumper and as soon as you get out to inspect the damage, then boom, someone slides in the driver's seat and drives away with your whip. First of all, why are you driving around to maserati

in certain hoods? I don't understand why that it's going to be the case, and would and wouldn't it be fitting that Kevin White wide receiver who's supposed to be able to take the top off the defense fell to this bump and run strategy. I don't know, Okay, so that's robbery one. That's robbery one. Robbery too. First round draft pick of the Kansas City Chiefs, Patty Mahomes went back to like, you know, his hood in Texas. He went back to like his his hometown after getting drafted.

Big man on campus. Yeah, he got robbed at gunpoint right way, the first weekend he was home. The first weekend he was home, they ran up on him at gunpoint. He thought he was going to be the big man, but no, he got jacked real quick. That was by gunpoint. So that's pretty bad. But check this one out. The third Julio Caesar Chavez, after his fight with Carnelo Alvarez two weeks ago, was in his hotel room, right and

this is the funny part. This was this is as told by his wife that they were up their party, party, party. His wife left, left him in the room with three women and they continued to party. Video is available on Instagram of this, and then Julio Caesar Chavez woke up the next morning without at watch and without the three million dollar check for just fighting Canelo Alvarez. So I asked you, Chris, which is the worst that the ladder? It has to be the worst. But she can't. Can't

you stop payment on the check? I think the worst part is that his wife was apparently down with them, but then left him alone with the groupies. I think it serves him right. I think it serves him right. You know, I'm going with that. I'm going with fair enough, fair enough, fair enough. Okay, So when we come back, thank you. You are now officially all caught up because I got Donnie Burns with me, the love doctor and basketball correspondent, but I got you dropping it with me

on Friday, So I appreciate it. You are now officially all caught up this way. If you know, you step in, we can continue to talk about these things. Right. It's a good thing. It's a good thing. When I come back, we're gonna check in on the polls, We're gonna check in on the scores, the rain that's going out there. And I got a couple of Freakness memories. I gotta get off my chest. Dave Martinez Fantasy Freestyle, Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Yes, yes, sis, your boy Dave Martinez fees

has spitting statistician. You're listening here to the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I got my boy Chris Bovona on the ones into so hot that we sweat steam after death like Corey Stringer blowing up like a Samsung seven. Yeo, check this out. We have that pole question up and the question was which team will lose first, the Calves or the Warriors. Right now, thirty percent of you actually say the Warriors will lose. I

think that's credit to maybe Gregg Popovich. If nothing else, say the Calves and thirty eight percent of you basically think both of them are gonna sweep their way of the finals by saying, whoever loses Game one of the NBA Finals, remember um tonight. I think you pay up for Chris Sale. His streak of ten straight ten plus strikeouts is absolutely ridiculous. Alex Cobb is the picture in case you don't want to spend all that money. Also, I told you I gave you always dreaming in the

Kentucky Derby. I'm telling you right now though, that was a product of the slop, and that was a product of the what was the favorite, Classic Empire getting banged around at the start. He had a huge push. I like him. You're not gonna win any money going with Always Dreaming Tomorrow. Okay, it's four to five odds, yes, put him in your trifecta's However, I like Classic Empire at three to one and of the newbies, don't sleep

on cloud Computing at fourteen to one. I think it is very telling that Javier Castellano left the other horse, Generva, to go on cloud Computing in this race. So my trifecta for tomorrow is the five horse, the two horse, and the four horse. Lock it in. That's what I do here. I help you win your leagues and win that cash. But as we get into the Preakness, I gotta tell you, most people I know call it the

preak Nasty. Okay, all you need to do please go on Google right now and put in Running of the Urinals. That's all you need to know. I was there in the mid Auts. My man Maddie Modica is doing it right now. You're gonna hear about this on the Fantasy Black Book coming up next on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I was in the middle of it and then you

literally need to put your head on a swivel. I know of a girl who got frost bite in late May because she passed out in an inflatable to pool that was being used as a cool law and no one even knew that she was passed out for hours. She almost died of frost bite in the infield of Pimlico. I didn't even know Barbara died on the track because I was drinking since nine and the race went off at six thirty. Have fun to the hundred and five

thousand people that will be in the infield. Hopefully you listen to me and play that five to four trifecta. That's what we do, win that cash. I'll see you on Monday. Joey Pisapilla, Maddie Mo coming up next, Fantasy black Book. But this has been Fantasy Freestyle on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network Happy Weekend. John him out
