Should These Players SPOOK You Enough to Sit Them?! | ESPN Fantasy

He's not explosive at all. I do think his vision is a little bit off. His lane choices and usage have not been beneficial. Hey, I'm Liz Lose, and this is Facts versus Feelings. And today's fact is despite the urgency of everyone else, you don't have to get ahead of yourself. Hello, my sweet friend, Daniel Dopp. It is wonderful to see you heading into week eight, which, by the way, is one less than week nine, which is, in fact, at week nine, the halfway point of the season. We are cruising so quickly. Girl, I can't believe that we are this close. If we're just close to halfway, that means the finish line is not that far away in the distance, which means I want to take the time to make sure we appreciate. No, we appreciate all the football that we have left. It's been great so far. We got another awesome half of the season. Let's just make sure to enjoy it, sort of like how I do with you every single week when we get to do this show together. Oh, that is so kind. I really appreciate the attitude of gratitude. Thank you for the reminder about that. And I also really hope that you still hold that similar space when we talk about this first player who I don't think it's triggered you at all, not a single bit. Liz, no, no, Liz, it's my job to bring stuff up like this. I don't want to talk about chase brown, but of course, we're going to dive right into it. No, that's fine. We have to. Might as well just rip the bandaid off. I get it. All right, chase brown. First guy we're going to talk about started slow this year. You know, he also started slow last year, but he eventually came on and was really good for fantasy managers. This year, three top 20 finishes, zero of those top 20 finishes were inside the top 10 though, but three top 20 finishes, the other three finishes he said, outside the top 30. I'm just feeling a massive sense of urgency right now for all of my teams that have chase brown on it because you basically can't not start him, but I also don't feel good when I do start him. So how about this week against the Tennessee Titans does he get on track now for my squad Liz? I don't see it happening. I think you have to adjust to a new normal because let's talk about what is not the problem. It's not volume. He's the RB 13 and touches per game averaging over 18 per contest. If we look a little deeper, here's an interesting stat among 18 players with 110 touches or more so far this season, he is the only one averaging fewer than four yards per touch. That leads me to believe that despite the volume, the efficiency is not working in his favor. In fact, here's a fun fact. It's not so fun, but both chase brown and Joe burrow his quarterback are averaging the same number of yards per carry at three and a half. Could you believe that? That's not a fun fact. No, and you can't say fun fact before you say stat like that Liz. That's not how it works. I know. I just he's not explosive at all. And as he has struggled, Somajepirine, his role has increased. He's garnered a larger snap share over the last couple of weeks, and he has been more efficient two weeks ago. Perine cleared 15 fantasy points. Last week, he found the end zone. Now, that doesn't bode well moving forward, right? If the more if the backup is more efficient and he's he's eating a larger piece of the pie, now the volume is maybe becoming a problem, especially when chase brown is so dependent on receiving work. That's like what is bailed him out. Now, let's talk about this match up. Like on paper, you're like, okay, Tennessee, maybe not a great defense. But when it comes to the running back position, they have faced the second fewest running back targets. And they are tied for the fifth fewest receptions allowed per game to the running back position. That's not great when 54% of chase browns fantasy points come via the air. That is what he is so reliant on. So no, I think you're looking at a low end RB two in week eight. Yeah, it certainly does not feel good. I just want you to make me a promise that if Somajay P Ryan scores a touchdown for a third straight week, that his name will become a curse word and we're never allowed to say it on the show ever again, because I will lose my mind for all of my chase brown shares if he doesn't get in the end zone this week. And so no to the producer, no to the producer time to get a Somajay P Ryan curse cover up ready for next week's episode. All right, I got to talk about another guy that I've well, you're right. You're right. I wouldn't love it Liz, but it would make for fun content. You want to put some slander on my guy Jared Goff, which is surprising because not many people want to say bad things about the guy, this number two in fantasy football at the quarterback position. Yes, Jared Goff, QB two this year and Liz, you've got bad things to say. How dare you and why? The Vikings are, I hate to say this. Let my soul not leave my body as I do the best team in the NFC North. I don't, I listen, I think coach flow is going to want to slow that golf role and that defense, the Vikings defense is allowing 12.3 real life points per game. That's it. They are the lowest. When we look at the fantasy points per game, just 7.6 allowed to the quarterback position. That's a wild number. No other team is under 10 fantasy points allowed per game to the quarterback position. And Jordan Love, because that's an average, has been the only quarterback to reach 12 fantasy points when facing the Vikings. That's your ceiling, 12 fantasy points. It is going to be tough, obviously, because everyone knows with this Brian Flores defense, it's like Blitzmitzel, Blitzmitzel, Blitzmitzel, just nonstop the entire game, obviously. So I will say this, Jared Goff has played six games against a Brian Flores, Minnesota Vikings defense. Three of those games, he scored at least 18.8 fantasy points. The other ones of those games, I don't want to tell you how many points you scored because it's so bad, it would probably lose you a week. So it's very much a coin flip. If you decide that you want to roll with them, there is a chance because this offense is filled with so many good players that sure things could go right, but there's also a chance it could be absolutely disastrous. I've got to make quarterback 13. So I am more in line with venting him just like you are. I am a quarterback 15 and just for context, I would rather start Gino Smith against the Raiders this week than mess with Jared Goff. That is how seriously I am respecting the matchup. Well, since you said mean stuff about my guy, Jared Goff, how about we talk about your guy, LB3 and what he's been doing lately. Do we actually have a nickname for Luther Burton III because I like LB3. I think that works. I mean, LB is like pounds and then I was like, maybe he could be like triple weighted, but that's in my brain. Oh, like heavyweight. Oh, no, I get sort of, okay. All right. Yeah, that's stuff. All right. Well, let's talk about this guy and said, LB3, I like the matchup here. LB3. It's one of the few guys in the NFL, Liz Lose, that can take four targets and turn it into 23.7 fantasy points, which is what he did last week. He is unbelievably explosive, but he has a really tough matchup against the Seattle Seahawks this week. How you approaching him here and we gate? I mean, there is no denying that his star is on the rise along with his stock, right? He's averaged over 16 fantasy points per game over the last three weeks. He's also managed seven red zone targets during that time that's tied for the seventh most at the wide receiver position. He is so explosive to your point, right? Like the ability to take four targets and make it into 20 points is due to his ability after the catch. He's the wide receiver five. In fact, in yards gained after the catch, but again, matchup is pretty tricky because not only do the Seahawks allow the fewest fantasy points to the wide receiver position, they also allow the fewest yards after the catch in general. So they have the ability to take away what LB3 does best. Also, when we dig a little bit deeper, Luther Burton largely man the slot in Ben Johnson's offense. And the Seahawks have allowed the fewest receiving yards to the slot specifically, as well as the second lowest catch rate to the slot, which means Caleb Williams is probably going to have to look elsewhere. Maybe that offers Roma Dunes a some deep shots. Maybe it's Colston Loveland ultimately. I think this is going to be a DeAndre Swift game and you're thinking like, okay, but that's a tough matchup. But the Seahawks are pretty generous to running back through the air and we know Swift has that in his at his avail and his skill set. So I think that the best bear to start in week eight on Monday night in prime time is going to be DeAndre Swift. Yeah, you guys don't realize the flex that's happening here right now is actually picked up DeAndre Swift and our knockout league this week. So she's just really excited. She got the player she won and has a bunch of good stats about using him. Listen, I am putting my actual money where my mouth is, right? Like people always want to know if fantasy analysts practice what they preach and Daniel just told on me, I sure do. That's you sure do. Hey, before we move on, please, please don't forget to like and subscribe to this video. It helps other people like you be able to find it for Liz and I, which means the world to us and we would love to get your voice mails. If you have questions going into next week for your lineup or maybe you need some relationship advice or maybe you want us to look at a fit. Send us a DM or a voice mail, the voice mail line 3 2 3 3 9 1 4 8 5 5. (upbeat music) - All right, Liz, loads of time for you and I to bring in. One of the scariest people that we know it is our producer and former part of this show. David Presley, how you doing, bud? - I'm doing good, feels great to be back. I'll be it, I'm confused at what makes me scary. I even got dressed up for you guys today. It's unbelievable, I'm getting called scary. - Are you dressed as a British person for Halloween? - Is that your costume? - That is my costume, yeah. He's an angry Manchester United fan. That is what I have come as for Halloween. - But what I am bringing to you guys is scary takes. In the spirit of Halloween, I have three scary takes. Each one, you are gonna have to prove me wrong and you're not gonna be able to. Are you ready? - Easy. - Yes. - Okay. - Easy. All right, first take. Sell high right now on Malik neighbors before it's too late. - No. - Why would I want to do that? - Why would I want to sell high-end Malik neighbors? - Right. - Okay. So let's talk about why he's good-lish. - Okay, so let's get through it. He is good because he is excellent at dragging mid-quarterbacks into production, which we saw over his rookie year when he averaged over 18 fantasy points per game with an incredible trio of Daniel Jones, Drew Locke and Tommy DeVito under center. - Yeah, we often hear, call you the Malik neighbors of the fantasy department 'cause you're often dragging mid producers through great content liars with everything that you do. So we get it. - That's, yeah. - Here's the thing though. - Thank you. - Malik neighbors has three, four straight games. Four straight games with at least 100 receiving yards in three of those games. He had at least nine targets. Two of them, he had 35 targets combined. I don't want to go as far as the Justin Jefferson thing that I said last year where Justin Jefferson is quarterback agnostic so it doesn't make a difference in part because it was literally the same quarterback that we're talking about right now. But it does feel like this offense, this coaching staff, this team Malik neighbors is going to continue to get the ball and it's clear that he is an alpha as long as he has the ball in his hands. I don't want to get rid of this guy rather than feel like I want to sell high. I want to ride the wave of a dude that I got at the end of the second or beginning of the third round at a discount in my drafts. - Correct. And if we are constantly preaching follow the volume, then we have to hang on to neighbors. And I will say two things can be true. In that neighbors can continue to produce at a high level and JJ McCarthy can be made as a QB. So I don't want to give up Malik neighbors. I want to hang on especially when you mention the value that we got from him coming off the injury at the top of the season through the end of the year. And by the way, the rest of season schedule, it's only it's the eighth easiest, I believe. So it's not a difficult schedule moving forward. So that is an erroneous take. I don't like it one bit. One jackal lantern or throw it out. Throw it out. We would fade. We would fade LB3 going up against a Seahawks this week. But Malik neighbors, week 13 San Francisco, week 14 Seahawks dragging into the playoffs. All right. If you guys say so. So week by week game, David, week by week. That's right. Well, this is a take by take segment. And we're onto the second take. Malik neighbors is gone. We're going to be talking about Omar Cooper, Jr. Rocky sensation for the New York Jets. He is going to be the number one fantasy producing wide receiver for the New York Jets for the rest of the season. What say you? Okay. Wait. So to be clear, we think that even if Garrett Wilson draws more targets than Omar Cooper, Jr., you're saying will out produce Wilson and be the team. Omar Cooper, Jr. We'll score more fantasy points than Garrett Wilson for the rest of the season. Okay. No, he will not. This. No, he won't. This is trickier though, Daniel. You got to, you got to give David some props for this one though because if we are assuming right that Garrett Wilson remains, Gina Smith's go to guy right now. He's got a first read target share of above 33%. That's like wide receiver 14. So I totally believe that Smith is going to stay locked in on Wilson. But I also think that Wilson, because of that, is going to draw stiffer coverage, which should open things up for Cooper who is incredibly shifty, can be deployed from various levels of the field and excels after the catch and is a tackle breaking machine. Like that's kind of what you want in a complimentary piece who can go off. So I do think that this one is a little trickier to disprove. I agree with all of the things that you just said as far as the term complimentary piece. That's what I think that he is in this offense. I still think that Garrett Wilson is the wide receiver one and he is an awesome wide receiver two. Ideally, he can kind of become the Tedero Mcmillan or Jalen Coker, maybe one A, one B because it used to just be Garrett Wilson and then there was nobody else. But now we're getting into that Omar Cooper junior conversation where he might be able to be a guy. I just don't think as the number two when I look at other number two's in the NFL. I don't think James and William's is going to outscore Amara St. Brown or I don't think T. Higgins is going to outscore Jamar Chase or George Pickens will outscore C.D. Lam. Doesn't mean that it couldn't happen. But I think the skill set, even though it's just been and by a two game sample size, two really good games, but we're putting all of this on two games right now. I know how good Garrett Wilson is over the last five years of watching him play with sub-optimal quarterback play. I think I have to default to him a little bit longer than just a two game sample from a really good and exciting rookie, but I got to pump the brakes on that. I do appreciate that you basically calmed Garrett Wilson to Jamar Chase and Amara St. Brown like the same level of talent. Sure. Variable. Variable. I will say though that you're right in terms of the sample size being super small, which also was one of the red flags that Omar Cooper junior had coming out of IU because he only had one season there. So there wasn't a gigantic sample size. So I think I really like the idea of now the Jets just having two options, plus there are going to be more right, Eddie Mitchell is back from the injury, Kenyan Sadeek, an incredibly athletic tight end also in the mix. So what's to say that now Gino Smith, at least for the rest of 2026, doesn't just have options knowing that and we had the data to prove it, Garrett Wilson remains the first option he goes to. Well done. You crushed that one. Thank you. It brings down Garrett Wilson and Omar Cooper junior gets a little better, but I don't think it's both. So all right. Next one, David Presley, third and final scary take, miss one is the next that scary because it's going to come true. And that is by the times the Seahawks finish week 17, Zach Charbonne will be a top 15 running back. 15. Oh. One five. Winning the fantasy championships. That is ridiculous. Like is he going to be the Seahawks number one running back? Yes. But there's no way that he is completely taking over that backfield after returning from an ACL. Even if Jadari and Price hasn't done what he's been asked to do hasn't fulfilled his first round draft capital. And even if like a manual Wilson and Georgia Lonnie are just kind of like guys, there's no way. Do you really think that they're going to run Zach Charbonne into the ground coming off of an ACL when they made a point of making a time share in 2025? Counterpoint Liz Loza counterpoint, you scored 12 rushing touchdowns last year. They may not need to run him into the ground given the touchdown equity they may have in this offense. And the addition to the offensive line in Quentin Nelson coming over and just bolstering how good that offensive line is going to be. That's a good point. So like because I'm with you, but you will hold on hold on hold on. We cannot use a nose for the end zone argument. That is a crush argument. Two points. Lamar Miller. Remember his nose for the end zone. That is a pull. Your girls been playing for a minute. Austin Eckler more recently. Those were arguments that we used about touchdown. Like we can on one side say you don't chase touchdowns and then say like, well, he scored a lot of touchdowns. You're right. I understand that. We're talking about the narrative of how we would get there and why we disagree. We have been starving to have a running back that we feel like we can count on. We've had two weeks so far this year. We're running back for the Seattle Seahawks has scored more than 13 fantasy points. So there's clearly a role here that is ready to be taken. The question is when you have three or four running backs there and we think this Act sharp and they will still be the one is there enough is there a receiving game upside to act sharp and a they can get us to running back 15. Probably not. I do think there is still that touchdown equity like we're talking about, but it's it's a difficult thing to be able to quantify and it does kind of sound like chasing touchdowns. But we do know that he can get in the end zone. And I think when you look at the bodies of the other guys, he would be the short yardage or goal line back from that standpoint. Do I think he's going to get a ton of volume and or a yardage? I think they're probably going to ease them back in for the first couple of weeks, right? So how do you get to running back 15 by we get to by the end of the season? He doesn't. Okay. Well, if you don't yell at me, I'm just trying to walk us through how it could happen. frustrating. Okay, but we have to prove it right. It is like the most ridiculous. How much of this like goblin punch have you drank to make me think that he'll end up RB 15. He averaged 4.3 yards per touch last season. Yes, those were short yardage runs. So maybe it's a sticky stat in terms of efficiency because he's not going for long runs, but 4.3 in your healthy season. Who's going to get the ball to the god end zone if this is not going to be sure, but no, no, he's not going to be 15. Is it going to be an RB 2? Yes, but 15. I mean, here, Daniel, do you think that Zack Sherbinay is going to outproduce Chase Brown over the back half of the season in terms of fantasy points per effort? Oh, that's just mean. That's mean. Liz is what it is. I'm right now. You got me, this game has gotten me completely riled up. Don't come at me. Dave's the one that started this. Yeah, I think 15 is tough. Also, I still think Chase Brown, I just want to answer the question. I think Chase Brown will outscore Zack Sherbinay, but dear Lord, what I love it if Sherbinay could become a useful running back for us as like a solid RB 2 and fantasy. So he'll be an RB 20. He'll be an RB 18. 15 is incredibly lofty coming off of an ACL and starting basically mid season. Also, for a team that wants to repeat for the Super Bowl and is probably going to like ease him in. Yeah, why don't you stick to your football, you Brit? Yeah, go back to the pitch. This is a safe place. It's a place where we can feel free sharing our feelings. Daniel, this has been a very up and down episode. I think I might need to lie down on a sofa and talk through some things. So how about a little fantasy therapy? Sounds like a great idea. Liz, the Swiss runs from Minnesota. Okay. Hello, Liz and Daniel. This is Sam from Minnesota. My Instagram handle is Sam_Burnham_. I am two and five in my most important fantasy league. I need a more reliable wide receiver too. So would you trade away hours and someone like Jordan Tyson for Kittle and hopefully flowers or a larvae? Alrighty. Thank you so much. Enjoy the show. Wow. This is a great question, Liz. This is how you shake it up. That is how you shake it up. Also, good on you for identifying exactly what you need. He was like, I need a stronger wide receiver too. I need a complimentary piece that's going to push me through this like scoring drought, assuming, given his record. Yes, girl. I love it. I think for me, yes, is the answer to that question, Liz. It is money. I think because they're two and five and you look at what's happening this week, George Kittle is on a buy and Crystal Lava is on a buy. If they trade Brock Powers and Jordan Tyson, they now don't have a starting tight end or a starting wide receiver for this week. So I would be okay with making that move as long as I got Zay flowers. But being that they're two and five, I don't think they can trade for two guys on a buy from this week when they probably need to get a win in order to say in that playoff hunt. If that makes sense. Excellent buy monitoring. I appreciate that. I got very excited by it, though. I would say, though, anyone who has powers, please go find a way to stash Michael mayor, particularly like we talk about cuffing season and how we want to around the double digit weeks, which we're quickly approaching, get insurance running backs. Also do that for some of the prime island players. It's not as useful for Tramac pride, but we know obviously that like Brock Powers is the wide receiver one in Vegas and Michael mayor is the tight end one. So cover yourself there just as insurance down the stretch. But yes, I thank you. Sam from Minnesota. I think it's an excellent idea. Shake it up. Make it happen. Just listen to Daniel's advice about the buy weeks. Liz, I've never been cuffed once. Let alone had a full season of it. Is that how that works? I mean, I think that's an entirely new segment. But yes, cuffing season is a thing. I give you know, I guess the giant thing. Okay. Well, I wonder if our longtime listener Kendall has heard of cuffing season? Probably. Hi, Liz and Daniel. This is Kendall. My Instagram is that's Kendall. I appreciate you up to my voice mail. I think it's a little bit of therapy because I drafted a Martin Hampton and Jeremiah law. And while I'm still being patient, volunteer of my love, so Daniel, you're not alone. I do appreciate this fact that your first take doesn't have to be your last because today I dropped a Martin Hampton because I've been last in my league since I drafted it. And he just wasn't showing up for me. So it has a fire tomorrow because they off. I guess I'll play it a little bit dangerous. All right. Appreciate you again. Love the show. I love Kendall. I love Kendall. Exactly what you need to do, right? Like instead of clinging and hoping and staying with the partner that is mid and not great. Like you're like, no, I'm going to break up because I deserve better. You know what? Like maybe Omar, you're in Hampton, find someone else in May 13. Very happy. But he's not doing it for you. So you move beyond that. That is, that is like exactly how you can. That is how you win this thing, right? Like it's not a guarantee that you're going to win, but you are definitely not going to win. If you just sit there and slump your shoulders and say like, moon, I can't make any changes. You made changes. You were brave. I love it. Also, you know, um, Michael Florio, one of our newer colleagues, Daniel, he had this take in our Monday Riders meeting, which I want to share with everyone because it pertains to running back drafting. And that's how if you're going to employ the anchor or hero running back strategy, you should probably do it with a back that has been proven. So like a lot of us drafted Omar in Hampton as our RB1 because we believe the hype, even though we hadn't really seen it. Instead of relying on like a James cook or a Jonathan Taylor, I'm not even going to mention Bijan and Jamir, right? And I think that's a really good point moving forward. Jeremiah love the other option, right? Like neither of those guys has been proven at the position fine as a number two, but like even Kenneth Walker would have been a better RB1 than either of those guys. Yep. I am 100% with you on that. And I understand we're always trying to like chase the golden goose and get it before it becomes a thing. But that is a great point about making sure that when you decide to go in here, we kind of had two unknowns with Kendall squad, which is a Marian Hampton. I fell for it too and a rookie in Jeremiah love. So I totally get that. Also feels like a little bit of like sticking the knife in when he's like I fired him on his day off. Like he's upset upset at a Marian Hampton. Absolutely. All right. Joshua wants to talk about his big assets. Liz. Hey, Liz. Hey, Daniel. Josh here from North Carolina. The fantasy season isn't going as well as I hope I just picked up my second win. Finally got some guys back. So I'm excited about the future, but I definitely need to shake up. I feel like my biggest trade assets would be either one of Colson, Loveland or George Kittle. I'd like to move one of those guys to upgrade the roster. Is there one who you think is more tradable? Thanks guys. If it does make a difference, my football team name is Mick Loveland. You know, that is a factor. But my Instagram handle is Josh Simzer S.I.M.S.E.R. All one word. I'm probably not worth a follow, but there it is. Oh, sweet man. I love Josh. Josh is great. So which tight end should you move? When I look at the rest of season schedule, Josh, I will tell you that Colston, Loveland has the easiest number one best rest of season strength of schedule number 29 for Kittle. So more difficult for Kittle. I think, frankly, right now you'd probably get more for Kittle. Now Daniel made a point earlier about him being on buy. But I think people are still a little hesitant about Loveland, whereas Kittle is approving commodity, especially with the rest of the 49ers fast catchers all being banged up. So agreed. If you had a choice, I'd move Kittle. At two and five right now, you need to have enough upside in your squad that you can get some dubs under your belt. I think moving Kittle gets you the most back in a deal with Loveland having the Kittle-like type of upside that he could have. If the bears, your bears, Liz, continue to do the things where they put the ball in his hand. So I think I would go that route as well. I have what a great question though. I love all of these questions, Liz. You have some great listeners for what it's worth. We have great listeners. And I love that they are also willing to shake it up that they're not just laying down and giving up. Like this is, enjoy it. You started the show, Daniel, talking about how, you know, we may be frustrated by this hobby of ours on a week to week basis, but my goodness, do we miss it monthly when we don't have it? So dig into all of it, the good, the bad, the ugly, the pretty, the wins, the losses, the lessons, all of it. Who else? We got We got another one. - All right, we got a DM here. This one comes from M Horn 35. lost my match up by 0.4 points because the Eagles led Javante Williams rushed for a hundred and fifty five yards and it touched them. There's no question. Deeks. That's just eventing. That's just that. He is a bad beat. That is a bad beat. You won best bad beat, Mr. Horn four week seven. I mean, props to Vante though. He's managed double digit fantasy points in every single game except for week two versus Washington. No. I think he's going to be another top five fantasy play at the position against Arizona in week eight. So we love an underdog. We love someone who proves the consensus wrong in back to back season. So I guess if you are going to get beat bad, let it be from someone who has a story and not someone you saw coming. No. We don't want that list. I lost by 0.58 points to field eight with the same player. Oh, no. So I feel this super hard M Horn 35. I was literally in the same boat as you was infuriating. They didn't even need the touchdown. They were going to win without the touchdown. Why need you? Give us a thing to the game. Wait. Can I share my bad beat because it was really disgusting and it came via Tony Pollard's ridiculous hat. Oh my gosh. Tony Pollard, by the way, suited up for a hundred and two games before he ever managed a hat trick and to add insult to injury, that bad beat came at the hands of our box living producer, Presley. Yes. Yes. Gross. Sure did. Super. I needed to get that off. But thank you for starting the trend. M Horn. 35. That's right. 35. Thank you. All right. Last one. This is a voicemail. Liz. Commitment issues. Maybe in Houston. Oh. Commitment issues. Period. I know this is Sean in Houston, but I have a kind of a procedural question, Commissioner in my work league and I have left the company at this point. Is this something I should look to ultimately try to find a replacement to take over my team in that league or is it perfectly fine to complete the year? My handle in Instagram is as Hoffman's 924. Real talk, Daniel, when he said I have a procedural question, I immediately imagined myself as Mershka Hargitane in an episode of SVU. I was like, let me diagnose this for you. Look at me in my Christy piece. I'm not a doctor, but I've played one on TV before. I mean, you have something in my little star. Yes. We are. You are right. I mean, I, first of all, this is the kind of commissioner that you want. One with ethics and principles, who's definitely trustworthy and wanting to make sure that everyone and everything is above board. I really appreciate the way you're approaching the Sean and also, girl, enjoy the season. Who cares about your company, like enjoy the league, maybe next season, you at your new workplace or in a different fashion. I don't know if you're working someplace new or not, but like, I think you, you can really, I allow you or will give you the space to absolve yourself of any guilt that you're feeling. And go ahead and crush them. Hopefully you left of your own volition, but if you didn't, girl, win. That's what I was just going to say, like finish out the season. Have fun with it. I think that's the way to do it. You joined up for a year. So make sure you close it out, but win the league. And then when you leave at the end of the year, you have the best of both worlds. So you keep doing you, though. I think that's a great question, son. I would always play stuff out. And then if I move to a new place, I understand that work leagues might want to keep it work specific, but not in the middle of the year. A hundred percent. And let us know because I want to know at the end of the year where you place and how the rest of your former colleagues feel about it. Yes. I think that would be a lot of fun. Although if you are one of the colleagues of Sean, maybe you could give us a call, three, two, three, three, nine, one, four, eight, five, five. Call us with your cashouts, crash outs, and life advice. If you have any roster questions heading into week nine, please let us know the question. One more time. Excuse me. The phone number three, two, three, nine, one, four, eight, five, five. Today we learned that Samaj P. Ryan is the opposite of Dopp's new safe word. That nothing is scarier than coach flows blitz. And that despite the urgency of everyone else, you don't need to get ahead of yourself. Yes, the game marches on. But don't let it leave you breathless. Be sure to check out my week eight edition of Facts vs Feelings the Column, which is currently live on the dot com and leave us a voicemail because we love hearing from you. The number to call is three, two, three, three, nine, one, four, eight, five, five. Until next time, may your facts be solid, your feelings be right, and your bus be someone else's problem. Excuse me. Were we recording for that sneeze? Yes, Q, we got it on tape.
