And now we're on to a better thing in my mind. Movie reviews, something that I've been trying to work in for a while. And I think it's going to work out great. We like-minded individuals and it seems to be that we've pretty much been on point for the first, first week. We didn't count the Halloween week. So last week we did an old school this week. The professor came in with his pick, but before we get into it, Ed, take us into the movie review. Absolutely. All right.

So this week, I'm going to let the professor talk about the movie that he picked, "Ocean's 11." Take it away, Tom. All right. This week I chose "Ocean's 11." The remake, I believe it was released in 2001, somewhere around there. Rick cast, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Bernie Mac, Elliot Gould, Andy Garcia, Julie Robs. There's a ton of people in it, but I thought the plot was great. It was George Clooney's character, wants to rob three banks, the same night. I think it was the Balachio, the Mirage, and I can't remember the other one. And Andy Garcia happens to own all three of them. It's a really good storyline. I thought it was a really good--the cast was great in reading into it. I didn't realize that, first of all, Don Kiedel's role, which I actually thought he stole every scene he was in. I'm a huge Don Kiedel fan. And doing the British accent, he just killed me with that. But his role was uncredited, and if you watch the movie, he's not listed in the end credits at all. Another big name actress was in it, and she was uncredited with Viola Davis. She was one of the parole board members, so I didn't realize that. And then I read that they all took pay cuts, so they wanted to make a movie together. They all took pay cuts to do the movie, so I thought that was pretty cool. And you could see they all liked each other, it looked like they were all having a blast. But that's my choice. I thought it was a really great movie. My rating, I'm giving it an 8.5. 8.5, Tom, take the totals for us. 8.5 from the professor, I'm going to kick it to Shaggy, Shaggy, what do you got? Yeah, definitely one of those movies you can watch over and over again, like when it's on TNT or whatever, it's like that. Great cast, a great storyline. I wouldn't grade it that high. It was great, but I wouldn't go that high, but I'm going to say like 7.8. 7.8 from the shags there. 10. Ocean 11. I thought it was a pretty good movie when originally came up back in 2001. I think that the budget was only about 87 million, I think, and it definitely, I think it grossed over nine figures, I think. And you can kind of see, just do a little bit of research on, you can kind of see that they try to recapture that rap, kind of feel to it, and then that tie-in in Vegas. And it was just a very entertaining movie, kind of went along very quick. It weren't really any slow parts of the movie. I thought it was just a good movie, and I agree with both Tom and Mike, you definitely could watch it over and over again and not really get bored about it, because you notice different things each time you watch it. I'm going to give it like a 7.4, because I grade a little bit hard, because one bite, everybody knows the rules, so, you know. Ed, we're going to change it to a one watch. Everybody knows the rules. Here we go, it's right there. You got it. I tagged it. Everybody knows the rules. All right. Here we go. Well, let's go to the fan. I'm curious. Yeah, no, definitely really, really entertaining, fun movie, can't be dead off that cast. I think the thing that made the movies really like the dialogue between the guys when they talk, and then really even really have so much to do with, like, to save the storyline. It's just them having banter between them, which really kind of pushed it along and made it make it more likeable. Oh, I think my favorite character is going to be Brad Pitt now, if I try to get the best character in it. I think I'm going to go, uh, about 7.7, I like it a lot. All right, so before we get going, Brad, Brad scored it. When he scored it, like, we're, like, spot on, we're going back and forth on, and just the text between the two of us, and we were talking about how we're, like, on the same page with that. And we were agreeing on everything. So great cast, especially at that time, they took all the big Hollywood actors. What I look for is I went back and watched it, and I want to know if, when you go back and watch it now, if it still holds weight, like, is it dated, or is it still watchable? It's very watchable still, I enjoyed that. Agree with everybody on the panel. It's one of those movies that, when it's a remake, and it doesn't kind of take away from the original. So it does stand alone like that. Does it have a lot of quotes that you can quote, like, movie lines and stuff, no. The story's pretty good. So Brad scored it, seven, three, and then my score for it, going forward, seven, one. Not saying I don't like the movie. It's just trying to get a baseline with these movies going forward. So that was a great pick from Tom. I like where everybody has an eclectic, say, movie collection in their house that they're trying to throw something, so speaking of that, it was Brad's pick for next week. And I'm glad everybody's sitting down for this one, Star Wars Rogue One for next week. So if you haven't seen it, you're going to watch it. That thing's on, like, every weekend on TBS. Okay. So it was probably playing when he picked it. It was on a couple of days ago, so probably. Okay. So I put him on a spot. So next week, Star Wars Rogue One takes place right before a new hope where they steal the plans for the desktop. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Save the next week. So, Andy, you know, it's funny when you actually own the movie, you don't go grab the DVD and throw it in to watch it. You're like, we'll look all over the place to try to find a somewhere where I can stream it. Isn't it crazy? Stop it. Lazy. One watch, everybody knows the rules. What do you got for an overall score for that Tom? 7.63. 7.63. So we're round down, right? So 7.6. All right, so 7.6 for Ocean's 11. What do you think for that overall score? You think that's pretty much a really strong, I think it's the best of the franchise by far. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I thought the Ocean's 12, I thought, was horrible. I was the second one. That was the worst one, I think, out of the bunch. Well, something tells me if we keep doing this, we'll come back around at 12, eventually. I guarantee it. I think we're going to watch it before we hit that. Ocean's 8 was pretty shitty. Yeah. I didn't see it. I didn't watch that one. You didn't miss anything. We're more likely to watch the original, probably. Yeah, so that's a movie review, pretty good start so far. So let's move into the world of Pro Wrestling and something that we're going to talk about finishing this documentary, putting it to bed, unless something drastic comes up and they add to it or whatever, which is not out of the realm of possibility. Vince McMahon episode 6, final episode. My thoughts on this one was, I was a little bit nervous. A little bit left with different feelings about the whole documentary. It seemed like at the end, they tried to give you a bunch of stuff to think about, but they kind of gave you nothing. It just kind of anticlimactic is the right word for me with it. I really like Shane like I said before. I think that Vince McMahon is weird because, well, he is weird, but the father dynamic with him is he's saying how his father never gave him a hug and Shane was saying how odd it was to get a hug from him. So isn't the problem just correcting the problem and just being the person that you always wanted your father to be, isn't that kind of the way it should be with that? They threw a lot of stuff at you, the Bruce Prichard thing where his wife got cancer and he paid for everything for her and they gave her three or four months and she's been alive for 24 years. So it's just so much stuff and it's like you left kind of with, I don't know, mixed feelings on the whole documentary, it just, it was tough for me to watch that and not come away with just overall negative feelings about the whole documentary. Shane, you want to add to it? Yeah, I'm going to say, I feel like I was watching one of those series is like at first you're like, "Oh, okay, it's pretty good." And then as it drags on, you're like, "Well, I made this far, I got to finish watching it." And that's how I felt about it. I'm like, "All right. What's one more episode? I got to finish it." I was just like, "Yeah, stuff about Shane was great. I did like that little clip about Prichard, you know, getting Bob's personal life a little bit about that." But overall, I was like, "Just get this over with." Yeah. One thing before I asked the other guys that just popped in my head, I thought it was pretty odd how when they asked a pretty good panel of people what they thought Vince McMahon's legacy was and nobody could give an answer. Right. Right. Yeah. Right. The undertake a Tristratus, Booker T, who was John Cena, it was like, they all looked at him like a father, but they had nothing to add to it because they can't say anything good because they know all the dirt. I mean, I think he's probably just like the PT bottom of our generation. Yeah. Like he took something that was kind of fringe and made it mainstream, that's probably his legacy. Where do you think Ryan? Bye, Ag. I totally agree. I think the only person I really came out and said anything was Tony Atlas, which was just like the greatest promoter of all time and he kind of just leave it at that. I mean, there was quite a few things on there that came off as like a bad time and all whatever you want to call it. The thing we would vent and they're like, oh, what are you thinking? He's like, oh, I'm all sticking up all different stuff at all time. But right now I'm thinking about sex, like just what until it's like, that ain't helping your cause. Anybody. That's pretty bad. And Stone Cold 2 would deal with the CTE, we kind of got into the Ben West off and he's like, I don't even think there's anything such thing as CTE or something like that. Like, again, when they're like protecting the business, but I got, come on, come on, you're going off a little bit here, but now overall, super disappointed. I mean, you figure this last episode would be the one that they could kind of like fill some gaps a little bit, you know, after they kind of went through the years and got maybe more events, but they covered like, it seemed like 10 years in the last episode and I think they spent way too much time talking about stuff that they didn't really have to do with events was just more of like, like I said before, like a WWE documentary. But yeah, no, overall it's, I guess there's, the real story is going to come later on. So I think they got a little, they got a little hand tied there knowing what was going to happen, especially once the word got out and you've been stuck showing up, the thing. So I'm curious if they were supposed to be more episodes than what there actually was or how, well, if none of that had come out, it would have ended up being a better documentary because then maybe they could have got a little bit more of it. There was personal background and stuff. And thoughts to close it out. I just think, I just didn't think it was a very good documentary. I mean, we've talked about it. This is the week six and we've got, and all we've ever talked about is just like, we wish that they'd given us more. It really just think it was a, it was really just a fluff piece and to take, I think it was Ryan's point and I think Tom's point and Mike's point at your point. It just kind of seemed from the last, over the last past couple of weeks, it was just all about kind of like teaching, you know, people that weren't old school wrestling fans about kind of like, what the WWF turned into the WWE and, you know, that to kind of like have people not have like, talk about this as legacy. First and foremost, he changed something that was just territories all over the place to actually something that was a worldwide business of, you know, sports entertainment. And that's, that's a pretty big deal. Doesn't mean that he's a great person because he's far from that. He's actually quite a shitty human being with all the stories that have been held back and everything like that. So, you know, it's just, I'm glad that I didn't waste a terrible amount of time watching it. Yeah, maybe eventually we'll get a doc side of the ring episode that'll kind of add to it or something like that. But Thomas, waste a reason. What do you got? I just, to piggyback off of what Ryan said about the concussion thing, I just thought Undertaker came off looking a little bad too, because he's talking about not being a big deal. And then two minutes later, they talk about him having a concussion and wrestling the last 15 minutes of the WrestleMania match versus Lesnar. And he says he doesn't remember anything about it. And they said he had a concussion. And then Vince didn't look good either by saying, oh, he doesn't think it was a concussion. He just thinks it was a traumatic experience that he, he lost the match and that's why he doesn't remember. I mean, just didn't look very good. But I just, this whole documentary to me didn't bring, there wasn't anything new. The newer stuff was like talking about, I thought that stuff with Chris Newinsky and Benoit's dad where Benoit's dad donated his brain. And I mean, who knows whether or not it's actually true or not with it. I'm saying that it was like one of the worst cases of CTE that they've ever seen. But I just thought it was, I won't say it was a waste of time because I'll always watch stuff like this. But I expected more from it. They hyped it up so much, I expected a lot more. But I do agree that Shane McMahon came out looking the most sympathetic in this thing. I mean, they were just talking about the match that he had with Vince in the cage. And then even showing where he got in the back and Vince gave him a pat on the back. The whole thing with the Kurt Angle match, which is the thing I remember the most about Shane where he couldn't break that glass and he was determined to go through it. But he's crazy, but he came out the most sympathetic in my eyes. Yeah, the CTE thing is crazy because you look at just the chair shots to the head, especially when you go back to those ECW matches with Tanaka and Mike Awesome, where they were just waffling each other with. And you look back on it and say, wow, I know one of the guys is still alive, but Mike Awesome isn't. And he had all kinds of problems at the end. I think he ended up committing suicide and all that other stuff. So it makes you wonder, there's a lot of, I think there's a lot of blood on McMahon's hands. The way he presents it, they had a choice. And then the Ashley Machano story, that's kind of creepy. It just seems like those stories all kind of circulate around one guy in the eye of the hurricane and where he's such a control freak, how he cannot know that whether it's the ring boy scandal or things that are going on, he's got to know that he's just to let people backstage to visit. So why would you let Sohori and be around? You're allowing one thing and then you turn a blind eye to it saying, well, I never told you to do any of that stuff, but yeah, but it's the way you present it where I've seen articles of cute interviews of people saying, well, they'll walk by and give you like, well, you're not as big as you were last year, kind of subtle jabs and if you're not doing it and somebody else is doing it, they're going to take your spot and be more popular and make more money. So, I mean, I think that's the perfect definition of a doggy dog business right there, even if it is corporate. But I was interested in how he, there's more to the story with where he resigned and then he came back and then Stephanie left. I felt very odd and they didn't really do it, deep dive into it. And then the one thing that they never gave any closure on was the guy from Wall Street Journal that's been chasing him since the early '80s, since around the Snooka scandal. He's been chasing Vince McMahon and trying to pin him to something and they never even went back to him and gave like an end road of that. Right. Right. Was that Phil Mushnick? Yeah. Yeah. They never even tied that in at the end. So like I said, I think I agree with everybody and not to be long-winded, but if there was left with a lot of, "Hey, you gave us this," but you never like finished it. Just at the end, the allegations came up and that's what ended the story. And then, you know, as they're fainting to black, they give you those, you know, little things at the end to kind of like, I don't know, keep you interested or whatever. So hey, just very, I agree with the whole panel, very disappointed, a lot of hype going into it and they gave the old school wrestling fan and documentary fans nothing. So speaking of that, there was some kind of tie into this, some news this week. It just came across my feed and I was like, "Is that somebody just kind of doing some clickbait or whatever?" And then I started multiple times after that, Bruce Pritchard and Michael Hayes left abruptly. So they're on leave, they're on leave, they're not actually gone, they're on a personal leave. Just reading it, Michael Hayes is off for personal reasons and Bruce Pritchard is due to a family emergency. And that's the only explanation they gave you, they'll go in depth or anything like that. Oh, it's just weird how around all these allegations that, you know, stuff like that happens almost like when Paterson stepped down around the time of the, you know, all that harassment stuff, just makes you wonder, makes you wonder, because Pritchard's been there for a while. The only time that he ever left was he left for a short time and he went and worked in a way and then they brought him back. So you never really know what the reasons are or what I've read stuff about Michael Hayes being, you know, wrapped, finked over the years with every place he's worked and that's why he's always had a really good gig with places because he'll stooge on the boys. So I don't know. They were saying that the thing with Michael PSAs is that he's been the producer for all this bloodline stuff going right through all the time. So now that now that he's gone, I guess Jamie Noble is like taking over for it. So I'm kind of curious to see if it changes anything in the way these storylines must are headed. Are they going to bring back Nadia? They should. No, sir, I think that's it for the wrestling news this week and, oh, go ahead, Thomas. With the whole Vince McMahon and I can't think of her first name, but the woman that filed the lawsuit against what's her name, Janelle Graham. The herd, her lawyers are trying to go to court and they want to get all of the non-disclosure agreements that people have signed waived and they're trying to say that like some, I don't know how they're trying to say, saying they've run out. I don't know if there's actually a time thing with these things, but they're going to court anyway to try to get some of these people so that they can testify in the case. Yeah. At the end of the documentary, it had a little blurt that it said that the case was on hold because it was a federal case. Yeah. So her initial case as a one on one is on hold, I guess, but I guess it's going to all be lumped into one big thing. We'll see. The thing that's about the whole thing is that they were saying that like Vince paid her off too, but then he didn't come through with giving her all the money. He saw it changed her a million dollars and that's why it's like all the money that this guy spent over the years and you're paying something to go away and you don't come through with a dough and it's like now you're ruined for that million dollars when you've got billions. Right. So that's a fun fact about him when he was buying out the territories, especially the Los Angeles area and Calgary when he was negotiating and they came up on the price, he never finished paying either one of the two, the Lebel's or the hot, believe it or not. He still still won the territory for the money. Like he like say it was like three installments, three years in a row of like three million. So a million dollars one year, the next million dollars and then the third year that he stepped up like the last year, he would always stiff people for the last year like, oh, they already got their money. They're not going to chase me for the, for the remaining amount. He was, he was known for doing that. So it holds, it holds weight with him. So then Tony Brown, one last thing on that, that McMahon thing is I really like Tony Atlas. He seems to be a no nonsense, easy going, just plain old. This is who I am. This is the story. And I got no, no bones about it. So very likable Tony Atlas, Tommy wants to add one more thing. I know you're a fan of adding more belts and women. So what do you, what do you think of the, they're adding the US women's championship, US heavyweight championship? Come on now, you know, they can't even put on one good woman's match. I don't know why they need a mid-con belt for, for them. It blows my mind, I think, I think we missed Brad this week for that one too. So is he is a probably ringing right now at Creed right now, he's, he's in, he's doing the chorus for, can you take me higher? Yes. He's probably crowd surfing too. Hopefully you've got something 1973 podcast related on, he's walking around the Creed concert. So yeah, that, that should be it for wrestling this week. So women's title, mid-con, no, that's a hard no for me there, Chegg. Good, I was worried, I was worried. What's a mid-card? Like the intercontinental, go back and watch the documentary, will ya? So Thomas, let's get into some sports stuff with your shitty pics, let's go. All righty, uh, hold on a minute, grab my, my notes here, Tom's shitty pics is brought to you by Brock Street Broome Company, located at 244 Brock Street South in Whitby Ontario. Everything is brewed in house, including their hard iced tees, their beers, vodka sodas and their hard celtas. So if you're in the Whitby area, go check them out and tell them the 1973 podcast sent you. I might be in your clock. Now, I picked two games last week, it looks like I'm probably going to go one in one because I lost the Ole Miss Georgia game and right now I believe Alabama was the last I looked they were beating LSU. So, I'll go one in one there. What? They're at halftime right now. Uh, uh, this week here coming up, I'm going to pick, there's only, there weren't really a lot of good games, but there were two, uh, games with ranked teams, but one really good game. Tennessee is at home against Georgia next week. I'm going with Tennessee, car, the quarterback for Georgia, Carson Beck has been a turnover machine this, uh, especially the last like four games, I think he's thrown 12 interceptions now. I think they've played like nine games and Tennessee's defense is ball hocking. They've, I think they've, uh, going into this game here today. I think Tennessee had, uh, 16 turnovers forced. So I think they're going to force enough mistakes by Beck and, uh, they're going to score enough points there. They've got a really good offense, good running game. I think they, uh, beat Georgia. All right. So, uh, before we get into football picks, uh, the phantom, we want to talk about, sit the kid this week, the all time face off win record. Pretty impressive. You know, the, uh, the thing would sit more, more probably about his legacy is, uh, when he came in, I don't know about the rest of you guys. Like I hated him, but I, I thought it was a baby. Yeah. I would even I go and I even thought he was a little overrated, I didn't, I didn't really see it. But, you know, as this, as his career has moved forward, I, uh, I'm quite a bit of respect for him, how he plays in, he's clutch, does everything right. He's like, I say he's like, he's like a pro's pro. I, uh, I had him wrong. You know, I, I think he reminds me a lot of Mack Messier. I, I, when Mack Messier played for, uh, for the Oilers, I was, you know, I was, you know, whatever I was, I was like kind of Gretzky's sidekick or whatever, but, uh, after Gretzky left, he, Edmondson continued to stay when he moved on and won a cop won a ring just team. That was, I mean, it was a stacked team, but his leadership and, and all that is, uh, I go, I guess I'm going to have to be a set of all just these, uh, gonna be, I think he's a, I think he's already a top 10 player, but he, I think he's already starting to creep maybe even so it's like a top five, which is pretty unbelievable. Yeah. Uh, if you think about it, everybody that's ever been a high profile, uh, center in the league and for him to, uh, you know, be the player with the most face off wins in history. And he, you know, just the subtle stat that, uh, kind of holds a lot of weight when you, when you kind of do a deep dive into it, all the players he's probably faced off against. And, you know, I, I agree with you when he came to the league, of course, playing for Pittsburgh and, you know, being a fly is killer. Uh, and he's, uh, definitely tough to, uh, to like, but there's been a lot of stories over the last, I want to say two or three years that have come out with him interacting on the down low with, with fans and, um, you know, there is a lot of, a lot of really good stories. So, um, I think our guy Ray would have a different story though. But I was hoping that Ray was going to be on to tell the Ray stories about, uh, his interaction would cross be so, uh, at a bad time and without, but, uh, well, I'm sure it'll come up again. I'll say, I'll save for Ray, tell it, uh, so I don't ruin it. Um, yeah. So, uh, that's just a little bit of, uh, hockey in it infancy this, this year. So not too much to talk about. Um, so Tom, you want to, uh, hit us up with, uh, the weekly football picks. All right. Well, first of all, I'll do the, uh, standings after nine weeks, uh, Brad is still in first place. He's 96 and 42, uh, 42 and he's 94 and 44. The phantom is 93 and 45, uh, Ed is 91 and 47. I'm 89 and 49 and Shaggy is 78 and 37. We all had really good weeks last week, uh, worst, uh, Ed and Shaggy were 10 and five and that was the worst out of everybody with, uh, I went 12 and three and then everybody else went 11 and four. So, uh, going to, that was, we had a good week that week. So I got to find the picks here. Give me a sec. Uh, right. Shh. All right. Here we go. Uh, grab my pen. We're going into week 11, the picks where a week ahead to where week 11, I'm going to go with game one filled off your eagles at home against the Washington commanders. Andy. Uh, Philly. All righty. Shaggy. I'm going Redskins. All righty. Uh, Ed. This is kind of a pick him game. I'm going with commander. So they seem like they have a little bit of a better defense than what Philly has. All righty. Uh, phantom. Um, I'm going to command is also all righty. I'm going to go with Philly and Washington Daniels is a little banged up. I mean, he's, he's played all right, but I think Philly is going to start coming around a little bit, especially on offense. I don't defensively think I think it's going to be a high scoring game, but this, the last few Thursday night games with this one, the one in this past week, they should be really good games, uh, both time. The second game Chicago bears at home against the Green Bay Packers. Andy. I'm still going back as to the Super Bowl. All righty. Uh, Shaggy. I'm going to go Packers soon. All righty. Uh, Ed. I'm going Packers. All righty, uh, phantom. Packers. Yep. I agree. One thing that'll make this game interesting is that, for some reason, love doesn't play and Malik Wilson's, uh, move, Malik, uh, Willis is in, uh, in a QB. That's the only way they win that game. Uh, Ryan's at home to get to Jacksonville Thomas. What's that? They said the parents haven't been the same since they, they were messing with the fans in Washington. They lost the game. Exactly. It's true. There's a mutiny right now in the locker room when I hear it. Yep. All right. Game three. The Detroit Lions at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Andy. Detroit. Question. Mark. All righty. Uh, Shaggy. Question mark. Do you know what bad Jaguars are? Lions. Yeah. Definitely Lions. All righty. Ed. I'm going with the Lions. Go figure it. Phantom. Uh, a Lions exclamation point. Yes. Yeah. Gary. Let's, it could be Matt Jones, a second start. So, but it's still going to lose by double digits. Uh, next game. Tennessee Titans at home against the Minnesota Vikings. Andy. Vikings. Uh, ready? Ed. Uh, I'm going to go with the Vikings as well. I mean, you know, that Juggernaut have a team of, uh, of the Titans on how they spank the Patriots, you know. Shaggy. Uh, we're going to say Vikings, not, we're not a question mark. Yeah. Uh, Phantom. Vikings. Yeah. Uh, clean sweep again. Vikings should blow them out. Uh, right. Next game. Miami Dolphins at home against the Las Vegas Raiders. Andy. Well, you guys keep saying how bad the rate is that. So I guess I'll take the Dolphins. All righty. Ed. Uh, I, I think both, I think it's a pick 'em game, but, uh, the Dolphins, I think, have a little bit more talent. All righty. Shaggy. I think the one time Andy said the confidence, I got a question mark. Go Miami with a question mark. All righty. Uh, Phantom. Dolphins. All righty. I, another clean sweep for the, uh, podcast on that one. Uh, next game, the New England Patriots at home against the LA Rams. Andy. Rams. You said, you could, that's too much of a question mark on that one. You see. Okay. Rams. Cause the, I hear how bad the Patriots are, so I'll take the Rams. Ed. I'm going to go with the Rams without a question. All righty. Shaggy. I'm thinking a Patriots just come going to the fucking game. Then it won't be miserable. Okay. I just drink. It'll be fine. All right. Twist my arm. Phantom. Come to the Rams a bit because Shaggy's going to be there. That's another Rams victory right there in my eyes. See what we'll act. What we'll act in Tom is Brad's a Brad's big diet tribe on each game that he has. Give me all home teams. All right, next game. The New Orleans Saints at home against the Cleveland Browns Andy. I don't think I can pick the Saints this year. So let's go Saints. All righty, Ed. Oh, that's a pick on game for sure. I'm going to go with the Browns. All righty. Shaggy. I mean, they're both fucking horrible. I guess I go with the Browns. All right, Phantom. Brown. All righty. I'm going with the Browns as well. New Orleans right now is a shit show. They fired their coach alive. They might be done with a concussion. They just put him on IR. They just put him on IR tonight. Did they? Glad I stopped following my fantasy team for Kim. Did you guys hear the guy used to play with the Saints? Michael Thomas came out. Yeah, David Carr. Yeah. Yeah. Geez. That. I mean, but I mean, you know, I mean, he's not wrong. No, that's not wrong. But I mean, like, you know, it is football and, you know, I mean, quarterbacks have let their receivers talk about to drive many times. I mean, Brady did it quite a few times to West Welker and to Gronk and Edelman. I mean, so they all kind of do it. They try to protect him, but it's not a perfect game. You know, not per game, but his path is a little more than every other thing, Mr. Carr's. Well, yeah, there it is. But I mean, just think years ago that that hit would have been on, you know, what, you know, 100 greatest hits and they would have packaged that with sports illustrator on a videotape. All right, I missed those videos. All right, next game, New York Jets at home against Indianapolis Colts Andy. I don't know if I picked the Jets too many times. I'll take that. All right, Ed. Well, I need your name if it's not walking out that door and I'm going to go with the Colts. All righty, Shaggy. I'm going to go with the Jets because Aaron Rodgers is better than Joni. I'm going with the Jets as much as I hate Rogers. Their schedule lines up where they could actually win the rest of their games this year. So, I'm hoping not. Next game, another finally got to a good game Pittsburgh Steelers at home against a Baltimore Ravens Andy. Ravens. All righty, Ed. Oh, that's that's a pickup game in a good way. Both great teams. I'm going to go with the Steelers. All righty, Shaggy. I'm going Steelers too. All righty, Phantom Ravens. All right, I'm going with the Ravens, freaking hard, but I just got to smarten up and let either Derek Henry feed that guy the ball 30 times. I mean, you could have a 2000 yard season if they actually given the ball more than 15 times a game. All right, next game Denver Broncos at home against the Atlanta Falcons Andy. Take the Falcons. All righty, Ed. I'm going with the Falcons. All righty, Shaggy. I'm going Falcons, but these will be a low scoring game. All righty, Phantom. Go with the Broncos. I'm going with the Broncos as well. I think their defense. I think they'll shut down. Well, Drake London actually might not play this week. So, I'm going to go with the thing says he may not play next week either. I think they're going to Atlanta is going to be a little bit hindered on offense. I think Denver's defense underrated. All right, next game should be a decent game San Francisco 49ers at home against the Seattle Seahawks Andy. I will take every member of the village people's favorite football team. All righty, Ed. Oh, yes, please. All righty, Shaggy. I think we're going Seahawks is bad cat back yet. No, I don't know. I'm not sure. I'm not sure if he's playing tomorrow, but he's been out a couple of games. Yeah, I'll go Seattle anyway. I have a feeling. All righty, Phantom. I'm not going Seattle. All righty. 49 is finally getting healthy and getting McCaffrey back for tomorrow's game. The depot Samuel, I think they're going to go on a little bit of a run here. I'm going San Francisco. Next game could be a part of the game of the week Buffalo Bill is at home against the Kansas City Chiefs Andy. I'm going to go with the team that I've picked every single week since this thing started the chef's. All righty, Ed. I'm going with the chiefs, but you know, maybe if maybe if the NFL would actually call it fault start on that right tackle every time that he moves. Before the snap actually happens if the games would turn out different because I just in all the games I've seen so far this year, that do could have been flagged at least 15 times. Ralph Kings. Jagi. I'm going to build just going to hit the cheese. All righty. Pick them because I love them. What? I mean last place. What do I care? There you go. All righty. I'm going with Buffalo. Yeah, it goes against everything I eat, but I think Buffalo, they're going to sit a couple of their receivers I think for tomorrow's game and they'll be back. My home's I don't know what his ankle I don't know if he's going to be playing her tonight. Is he the faking or he can he's tough and he came running out of the thing the other day like he was without. Yeah, he's crazy with the Knicks that time coming out of the locker room for God. Hey, Charles. A wonderful thing, you know. You look like LeBron with a cramp. All right, Sunday night game in Los Angeles Chargers at home against the Cincinnati Bengals Andy. Chargers. All righty. Ed. Who is going to better than we do. I have to go with the other bangles. All righty. Shaggy. I believe in Jim Harbaugh. All righty. Phantom. Go Bengals. Girls having an unbelievable, unbelievable season. I mean, if their defense was halfway decent that they'd have a lot better team right now, but a lot better record. I feel bad for him, but I'm going to take Cincinnati on this one. I think he's going to score just enough points. I'm not totally sold on that charges running game. Dobbins as somebody that has him in fantasy. I mean, guys for like the last six weeks, he does score a touchdown, but he's like 40 yards a game. So I'm going to go with Cincinnati on that one. Chase Brown. He's another guy having fantasy and he's been doing well. He's underrated. Monday night game. 21 six, by the way, LSU Alabama, Alabama 21. Nice. Dallas Cowboys at home against the Houston Texans. Andy. Well, give me the Texans. All righty. Ed. Anybody that has half of a branch going to pick the Texans. Shaggy. Never give me the Cowboys. All righty. Phantom. Give me the best team in Texas. The Houston Texans. And now you know what we're missing is every time we do this, watch. Now, after I say it, when you get to Brad, he does the sandman. Yo, you just got everything with that monotone. Yo, and then I got to tell you, and then boom, goes right to it. So it missed when it comes to this stuff. I will say I'm going to go with Houston in that game. I have no faith in Cooper Rush. They're all done for the year, especially. I mean, I got to give Prescott credit. He, I mean, he played a little bit of that game with what a torn. It was partially torn off the muscle, I guess. So, I mean, he's going to be out a while. That's a lot of money to be sitting on the sidelines, but. I mean, he came right out and said when he was standing on the side, that point was stuck. Yes, he did. Yep. All right. See, that's the last game. All right. That's it. I think it's going to be one of our shortest episodes in a while, but a lot in a, in a little bit of time. So that's some shout outs. I'll stop this week. I don't want to somber one. A friend of. Ryan and I, and I maybe Tom might know him. Just found out that his wife is. Diagnosed with breast cancer stage four. So we're kind of pulling for him. Great, great, great guy. When I found out it, it totally took me aside and. I don't want to mention on the air, but we're, we're thinking of them. We're thinking of the whole family. Addy got anything. No, I got nothing. Shaggy. You haven't seen, but I got nothing. You got something. I'm going to show you. Well, it's a veteran's day week here. I want to give a shout out to Brad. I know Brad's a veteran and all the other veterans out there. Thanks for your service guys. I'm going to finish up the shout out. Is the fans home? I'm going to shout out. My boy Jeremy Ronik. Going into the Hall of Fame this weekend. Long overdue. They've been holding them down for a long time, so. Be good to see. Well deserved. Yeah. Every time his name comes up, there's probably five or six guys that are. For some reason that they'll never. You'll never know about. So, you know, as the years go on and other guys come to the fold, those guys kind of get pushed back more. So you'd like to, like we say all the time, we want to see somebody get in while they're still kicking red. We're going to have to get out of the fact because it's kind of. You know, it doesn't mean as much. So. Thomas for everybody on the podcast and. Everybody will. We'll see you next week. Later. See you.
