This is Ashley Akinetti from the almost famous podcast. You ever notice you and your spouse keep saying, we need to get away, but you never actually plan anything. That was us until we did something fun and spontaneous. We went to resort pass.com. There are hundreds of hotel resorts, pools and spots and private beaches that you can enjoy. You can spend the day at a luxury resort, pool, spa, massage, without booking an overnight stay. And listen, I may have only been like 15 minutes from home, but it felt like it was a whole different world. And I'm thinking, this is exactly what I needed. So just go to resort pass.com, choose your resort, choose your day, luxury, resort, day passes, start at just $1,500. Once you post your daycation, people are going to ask where you are. Go to resort pass.com, slash almost famous and use the promo code almost famous to get $20 off when you spend $100. That's code almost famous at resort pass.com slash almost famous.
For time is it your show? Yeah, for time is it your show? Yeah, for time is it your show? Yeah, he's back from his ad. Your foot, your thumbs and mouth, yeah. Sasuke too. Right next to New York. New York. It's very man. Yeah, for show, yeah. Your show. For time is it your show? Yeah, talk to talk some shit, yeah. For show, that's very man. You've done it, yeah. Yeah, for Maggie. Mark, Mark, Mark, for, for, move on to trivia. Keep listening. Well, a very happy Thursday to you and welcome into another edition of your show, Saskatoon's only as far as we know, only show, originating out of our beautiful city, going live, 4 to 5 PM. Monday to Friday on the internet. And we're always so grateful and thankful to kick each and every show off by saying that
because that means we're doing something different in this crazy world of the wild, wild west. That is the internet. I promise you. It's tough to do something different. Lots of people are doing everything. Don't mind me while I just open this amazing batch 27 energy drink. They're at Costco now. And I'm telling you, I see Buntis, our main man's in the lobby there right now. The bottom line, Grace Dad in the universe, took me for a little Costco run yesterday. Local Saskatoon energy drinks right there. Batch 27, we've been talking, trying to get some sort of deal to promote this stuff because as a lot of people who stop drinking alcohol, discover, these are like your best friend. They're just as bad for you. So they still, they'll give you that amp up. Give you a good time. Fill, it'll fill that gap that the booze used to fill. So I showed up to energy drinks, especially Batch 27 right here in Saskatoon. Very tasty. Marge, I know we'll get to you. Geez. Sorry, she's fired up again. She went over to play next door with Don or neighbor
as we had a lovely meeting with a couple friends over at the university earlier this morning. And she has been basically anthof ever since. She was running around his yard and she was helping him dig up potatoes apparently. It's very cool. Anyways, the continued thank you for supporting this crazy little, this crazy little dream of ours. So make golden rules cool again and remind everyone, hey, just chill out. You nice to each other. It's okay for someone not to think the way you think. You can still be best bros for life. I'm pretty sure that all the people that come through this place all have very different views on a lot of things. But because of our no politics, no religion rule, everyone gets along. The beautiful thing now. Especially in a world that tries more and more and more to make you more political and more religious. You don't be a sheep. So it's those simple little things. So to continue thank you for your support of consuming this content wherever you're doing it. We have a camera. Second, two none. I should move it again. Hold on. Yeah, we rely by the way. And no producer. We're producer this. So we'll see how this all goes.
I feel like we're getting better now. It's five, I think it's like the 590 S show or something. I've got 595 or six or seven somewhere around there. And I gotta tell you, we've probably done over, say 200 solo shows. And I think we're just starting at the hang of it. We're just starting to learn how this all works. So there's probably something to be said about that whole thing. Like 10,000 hours would be a professional. We got about 2000 down a couple more to go. Ladies and gentlemen, once she's done licking, hey, you're on camera girl, come on now. Good together. Yeah, okay, now you're blurry. Look at there, don't worry. Why are you so blurry dude? Oh my God, there we go. Hey, it's the making cam. Look at that puppy today. And I guarantee you she's about to get up and run somewhere else. But that's what she does. And that's okay. She's a beautiful puppy living her retirement years and she runs the show. So whatever she wants to do, we do. I'd always so happy to have her. Look at that. You're a good girl, March. You're a real good puppy. The making cam proudly presented to you as always by our favorite human beings, our favorite place in the world.
There's also one of our favorite dogs there too. Pet planted on eight street. Now your pet's natural grocer. March goes in there. And it's like she's the queen of the castle. You guys right behind the till, Mike, or Richelle, whoever's working there, or a pair in treats and she will run the till for a while when we go around and shop. We'd like to pick up her favorite dog food, her favorite dry food, which is the ghost solutions, a super fluffy coat brand, as you can tell. Lamb flavored. Marge just loves it. So we'll go in there and pick some of that up. And all the dry foods are hard to desire. It's right there in house, entire left wall. There's also a giant toy wall over there for your puppy to pick some toys out. And another giant toy wall. And the other side, Lisa, Lee Roy's bed, who is their greeting dog. So when you walk in, he says, hello. And you got deals, baby. Every Tuesday, you're picking up bones, OK? Every Thursday, as I look, it is Thursday today. You got treats on sale. And the best part about that? Mike and Richelle, who run the place, they understand life's hard out there. They're like you and I. They're just getting through it. And they stay open after hours and on weekends, because they understand how hard it is to get in during traditional business hours.
So they stay open. So you can come in after work today on your way home, stop by pet plant on A3. Pick up some treats on sale. Boom, there you go. You're loaded up. They also got all the jerseys you need to make sure your puppy's churned for the right teams and entire fashion now. They now offer grooming services at pet plant on A3. Mark's got a $60 blowout. They also trimmed or stumped and gave her a free toy. All for $60. You came out looking better than you did at the old place where we used to pay double that. These are the deals waiting for you at pet plant on A3. OK, they also got the carrying crates, the beds, the pans, exercise pants. Those are super sweet. You picked one up from March for our telemerical party. And she was in it for about an hour. It's like this is silly why we're putting in this cage. So now we got an exercise hand note here. It doesn't really get used. Point is, it's always good to have because you'll have those situations where you need it. They got a fashion aisle ready to go for you. They got all the latest and all the medicines and all the other things that you need for your pet. See, look at this thing. Why is it doing this? This is one of our old cameras. These are our old cameras. Now we got, when we started this place,
and they used to do funky things. So the moral of this story, this time for you to stop by on your way home or maybe this weekend when you got some free time because they will be open because they care about you. It's time to make the change. It's time to say no thanks. Big corporations trying to take over everything and ruin our lives. We're going to support this city. We're going to support local. We're going to support pet plant on history. There's your pet's natural grocer. Well, that March, very proud of you. Very good day. All right, normally on Thursdays, we got CTV's Matt Young to come in here and he gets us all caught up with a local sports scene and we do all the video game stuff. He is swamped over at CTV as he's running the newsroom over there so he couldn't make it in today. Luckily, we got another tradition around here, a guy who joins us on Mondays, a guy who joins us on Thursday, he said, guy who is so good at Fancy Football that his best friends wouldn't let him in their league. That's a fact. And we're not happy about it. I'm going to yell this thing through the window because I got to flip him over because we're not happy. Yeah, he get it. Hello, so, the Martin go to that.
Okay, don't say hi to the dog. Of course you are. Okay. Get in there. All right, there. Say, we just go right there. Hello. What are you doing? It's me. Yes. Okay. Hello, hello, hello. Oh, no. I still can't believe it. I went to bat for you, dog. I went bat for you over. I mean, nobody would, nobody would even give it a thought. For sure. I guess that is probably one of the biggest like, accolades, no, like things you can save. Confirmation. Your best buds in, just came out naturally. Literally your bestest friends of all time in your life, say, yeah, no, he can't come. He's done in the league. What do you mean by this? It's too good. Bestest friends. Yeah.
Okay. They'll pick you up out of a gutter, but they won't put you in their league. You know what I mean? What do we do it? Anyways, luckily you're a part of team. What's our name? Because we always just, whatever sought in our names is team, we always just take his name and put the in front of it every year. So he's changed like four times. And we're the barking one out. He was barking one out. So team, the barking one out, you're on it. I'm on it and Johnny Sherman's on. We got three guys on our team. We're gonna split it and it's gonna be awesome. I'm gonna bring you in here. Nice. Because this is our, this is our welcome to our fantasy football super awesome spectacular extravaganza. Lock going on here. And we're gonna officially get this started. It's just a fantasy. Fantasy zoom with our man, Boone. This is just a fantasy, another fantasy, zoom with Boone. I was trying to spice it up a bit. Nice. You know, I was trying to make a little bit, I don't want it to be full although Nova all the time. But yeah, it's nice to add your little takes to it. It's happened. We are in fantasy football season.
All the teams are drafted. Things are happening. We got the first game under our, under our ropes. And sorry, that thing was in my freaking foot. That's nasty. I would already lost one of the best receivers. And I would say top 10 quarterback. I think Sam Darnel's proven that, hey. Certainly. Yeah. A very big maker. With that? Yes. Yes, a difference maker. Big time, absolutely. Yeah, I mean, if you didn't go drafted, it's just because, you know, he's not a running quarterback. But, and that's, you know what? And that's, you want a Super Bowl last year? He's a Super Bowl ain't inside of that. Yeah, like what are we even talking about? For sure. Yeah. Well, what's funny is that, that divide through that gap between MVP quarterback, Matthew Stafford. Yeah. Lovers Sam Darnel. I believe playoffs. Did they, did they, did they go?
They had to go. Oh, sure, sure, sure. Yeah, sure. But I'm talking fantasy versus real life. Ah, here we go. Yes. It's kind of messed up. And, and obviously, you know, people draft and pick quarterbacks based off the fact that if you run, you get more points. Ah, but running doesn't make you an MVP quarterback, right? And new. Not divide. Maybe we should try to bring that closer so that you should be drafting the MVP versus not. So we do around here, this building, this place, this family of earth, that's we bring people together. We don't divide. We're not like the governments. We're not divide and distract. We're bringing it together, lift each other up. I like that. Very well said. This is Ashley Akinetti from the almost famous podcast. You ever notice you and your spouse keep saying we need to get away, but you never actually plan anything. That was us until we did something fun and spontaneous. We went to resort pass.com. There are hundreds of hotel resorts, pools and spots and private beaches that you can enjoy.

And these deals won't last. Visit vans or Albertsons.com for more deals and ways to save. So I'm going to start with AJ Brown. I almost spent $42 in a $200 auction draft to keep high ankle sprains. We all know I first learned how devastating a high ankle sprain can be by another one of our bestest pros of all time. The great Shane endocott when he was with the penguins. He was in there. Yes. And his crash in a face off guy, family killed guy. Good last time hanging out with Kras. Hang out with our boy, Colby. I have the best time. I think you're welcome. Yeah. Of course, you know, now it's so fun to hear stories about those guys. And so endos up there. He gets the high ankle sprains. And it lingers. And then all of a sudden they have another guy coming up who's going to make less money than he does.
And just like that, boom, you're back to restart it. And it's like the drop of a hat and shout out to endo. He made a hell of a career going overseas and just crushing it in Japan and all the other plays very cool to follow him along that journey. But the NHL stuff was done because of a high ankle sprains. How it all started. And to hear a guy like AJ Brown getting one. It's not. It doesn't have a good track record. People are acting. Oh, maybe one or two weeks. Like bro, those things linger. And when you're a big body dude like him. That's that's. Yeah, that's. Yeah, that's your edge, right? Your physicality. Yeah, it's obviously going to put a damper on the rest of the season. And it goes without saying. But I mean, there is hope. These, these NFL squads have obviously all the money or seemingly all the money in the world to. To rehabilitate rehabilitate that. Not just not just the money they have all the technology and all of the drugs that aren't illegal yet.
Yes, science. So, so there's hope. Every, every high ankle or every injury is different, right? So. Yeah, tough to say. You drafted a bill. You are very upset. Three catches. 23 every set. Don't be too upset. To drop home. Yeah. That's what I would do. Screw this. I trade him. Actually, I would probably trade him right now. I would try. You know what? I would trade for him too right now. Yeah. I mean, could go either way. Yeah, right. Yeah, it's unfortunate. That is. And unless you had. J.S. N. You get a bad night last night in fantasy. I was like eight catches 122 yards. A tadino big. Yeah. And that's, and that's, that's the shining spot of a really low scoring game. It was a pouring. Discussing growth. That one. Stud. Which, which wasn't very different from the Super Bowl. Super Bowl. Oh, dude. I was, I was sitting right beside you,
right beside Sonder. And it got down to the point where I was like, I don't even care about this game. Just get, yeah, exactly. Like our party was ruined until Brody found the vodka. Like that day was over. We were done at like six o'clock. Like no, bro. Well, pick it up. But Barner scoring that first touchdown in. Was it the fourth quarter or was it third? That was so. All the action happened to the fourth. That was the big, crazy thing. Because we had Shaheed. All you have to do is get 27 yards. If you sit with one cast for like 14 and we're mid-fourth quarter. That's all that's happening right now. And then hit, hit, and the game was still pouring a shit. But you and I and everyone's hitting their, if they're best like, oh, it's the best party ever. And then we rally that into quite the evening, which was very nice. So again, try to to you before we get that all together. Uh, Demo tried sending me the WhatsApp thing to get signed up. My phone doesn't work with WhatsApp. I like Vernon Steve or the sibling. You know that. Yeah. So anyways, just in case anyone's wondering about the ski trail here. Whitefish is this true? Yes, it is.
Yes, it is. Like where the nickel family used to go. Big mountain whitefish montane road trip is. Holy crap. That's how you know. Okay, we're gonna get you in on it. Yeah, I've got a great place. I'm already in. You know that. I'm committed now. I need to get away from this place. So the one day to take off. I think it's going to be a big, big van going down. I love details. I need to be sorted out. But a limo van, I hope we only travel in style. Hey, talk to your talk to your Saskatoon. I got my friends. You know, you know, I got some guys that aren't afraid to be a little luxurious. They may or may not have paid for entire meals for everybody while we were out there. You know, those type of guys. Yeah. Oh, I don't. Hey, I got a bone to pick with those dudes. I was driving back from the university today. Okay. And the entire frickin, whatever street that is with the university and then the other sides, like the field. Anyways, doesn't matter what the street is. Everyone knows when to talk. You go downtown. You call it drive. Like two thirds of it is all just SCS vehicles.
Like I didn't know they had that many trucks. There was like 10 SCF half tons there. I'm like, I remember when it was just. Nice. It's crazy. Yeah, it's so cool. But graphics down to this. It took me 10 minutes to get through there. I forgot to text them. That's right. How dare they? How dare they do a job? You need to send them a text message. Half hour, one hour ahead. And then you can get the inside track. That's right. Maybe they part the seas for you. The SCS road report. Rocks you by SCS. That'd be pretty good.

Meet the Red Bull Dragonberry Emergizer. It's one of the many new drinks out now. Who knew ice cold drinks could be so fire? Try them all only at McDonald's. But, yeah, so those types of guys, they might be able to figure stuff like that out. Is what I'm saying. Okay, well I'm very excited for that. I'm definitely coming to the trip, so that'll be very good. As long as it's not turned to the miracle, that's the only thing we're way too close to tell America last year. Oh, which I just thought about. January or March. March. So, Telemerical last year was February 27th. 28th, I believe. Okay. Yeah, no, we're moving in the opposite direction. Okay, good stuff. Going back to what's way more important right now as the season has. Well, if you have anybody in action last thing. I did. I had a Giderian price. I had Mac Holland. I had, I had a Tony O'Brown cheese AJ.
Yeah, you did. That's a. That's unfortunate. You're gonna put them on the bench. Your thoughts on price. Because when he was running, he looked pretty good. They just didn't really run the bunch. I think, okay. Yeah, I think I've, I think I've heard it said that people that were betting against him are happy. Yeah, when he touched, when he touched the ball, he looked good. We got to keep in mind. This is a rookie. That was his very first NFL game. Yeah. So coaches are going to be. Not hesitant, but they're going to limit, right? You want to. Unless you're the Arizona Cardinal, that's a preseason game. They're going to put them out there for 18 touches and try to run his career. I digress. You got different coaching strategies. I think. So, now hold on though, generic price isn't. Or wasn't the prospect that Jeremiah love was. Right. So they were. So that's. So I would look. Absolutely. But I look at that as their. They're being cautious, both for the team, as well as for him.
Right. Um, I think that's a good idea. Yeah. Um, he's learning. He may still be learning the, the playbook. Maybe the coaching playbook is more complicated than. Then there's on. Cardinals is. Who knows. There's so many different variables. I look at as a positive in terms of every time he touched the ball, he looked great. Yeah. And that's not a bad thing. That's exactly what I was going to say. And you said it so perfectly. Everyone was happy. I was. It was literally right on the damn fence. He was like right here. You know, like he didn't blow up and he didn't funk out. He's like 52 yards. Like eight or 10 touches, whatever it was. I looked very, I didn't know. Looked fast. This is what blew my mind. They were teammates during my love and Jeterian price. Right. Notre Dame. Like so both of Notre Dame's running backsass to your wet in the first round. Got to sanity. That is. So to, uh, Notre Dame. I had to. I had to. I had to. I had to. I had to. I was. So to, uh, Notre, I hate saying something.
Notre Dame. I still burn. I've burned the biggest Notre Dame fan of all time. Him and Dubie. Him and Dubie were the two guys that just love the fight and Irish. And. Oh, where is the previous. You got to go to gaming on his last ride. They took him to a Notre Dame game out of South Bend. Awesome. Yeah. He had quite the tour dude. Like if anyone. Here's a little tip. If you're best friends about to die, make sure you do all the stuff they want to do. Because it's so fun. Like we had about two years of just. The best life ever. Just taking this guy everywhere. Hey. And, uh, the last one. The last ride. I call it. I went down to Paradise Village out to a beautiful portal by, I guess, Nuevo by Artha. It was a Dubie pistol peat, uh, Johnny Cobbonaer myself. It was the last time Dubie left the country. And, uh, we were going into a. Uh, what's the proper term going into a bar. That had a couple dancers. I guess, maybe you could say I'm going to be very PC about this. And they had about 50 stairs, 50 steps of stairs going up to this place.
We're in Mexico. And Dubie's fresh. He was fresh off his crazy brain, trying to give him some more life things. So he had a. He had a scar from about here. All the way up through like mid point of his head. Did you ever see that? You see that thing? Yes. It was crazy. And so we're in there in Mexico and we're influenced. And we got to the door and Dubie's stumbling. And we're all sort of like, oh boy, yeah, doing that one. And I got my arm around and we go, oh, no, no, sir, too drunk, too drunk. No, no, no, no, come in. And then I go, dude, look at this. I did looking back on it. I was so reckless. Just take his head, turn his head and like, look at this. Brain, not drink. Oh, come in. I was like, yeah, around his last ride. And then instantly like we took over the whole place. It was the one of the funnest nights of his life. And like very, very grateful to have those moments with our main man, Dubie there. And I don't even know how I got to talk about Dubie. I have a copy there.
Any idea? Oh, yeah, self-bend. His last ride. Yes, you got to go see. No, no, no. Yeah, and he went to a San Francisco game as well. He's like, did so many school stuff. That's a tip. If you have a best friend that's going to die and you know it, you know, you're going to have to do everything you want to do. You know, it's a live on forever. You get core memories. It's super cool. As we continue here in the third edition of your show, we got Bontas joining us live from beautiful Calgary, Alberta. This is our fantasy football, super awesome, fantastic extravaganza. Extraordinary party. Period. And we're talking about that. Not to be confused with what there's. No, no, it's political. Never mind. I appreciate you skipping on that. Because again, more and more people try to get more and more political and it just makes this place the better and better. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, not good. Yes, sir. Well, so more injuries. Luckily, I did not have San Donald anywhere. Is it really may not be so bad?
That's what I'm hearing. Like they were sounding like it was an ending. But they're like during the game, eh? Yeah, well, honestly, it looked like he was favoring. He's like ankle foot. It didn't even look bad. I was looking for where the hip would have got hurt. It doesn't like someone was devastating looking at it. It's very strange, but no fractures anywhere. Yeah. Yeah, no, no bone, no bone injury. So this is all good. Hopefully, hopefully he's back soon. Jason look good without him. It took a little bit. You know what? Do you know what I saw? And I mean, not rocket science. I don't think. But what they started to do instead of throwing him the yards, they just gave it to him like, yeah, them. Well, even that touchdowns forward and turn around that touchdown. That four thing to. They're literally fourth and two from like, like the 40.
And he just literally just that two steps turns around. Boom on it. Blitz. Everyone's gone. They said, it has to be one like linebacker who's they half the speed of. I mean, he's gone. Like those little things and dunks. And that's why he's last year's offensive player of the year. That's what he does. And boy, oh boy. Is he there was. There was. There was times where Drew Locke was looking like a young Al Bundy at Polk High there. You know what I'm saying? Like four touchdowns in one game. I he was cooking. I guess it was three touchdowns off that. But still he looked far better. Then most backup cubies look in the first game of the year out of nowhere. Fourth, four plays him. Like he had no business being that good. Yeah. So that's positive for the C-hux. Yeah. Even though overall, bunk game. Very bunk. Drake May. Drake May owners today. My god. Three picks in a second half. Yeah. Drake may looking like a young Bruno out there in John Lake football. Like just so you know, like it is only his third year.
Right. So. You could say that. But then he also say last year he was like third place for MVP of the damn league. I guess. I know. Like it's great. Everyone has a bad day. I'm not surprised that it came at the hands of. C-hux defense that is very good. And huge shadow to Kobe with that pick at the end. Look at those toes down. Drake May. What are you doing? Why are you throwing that? How the hell did the defense of player catch it? That was nuts. Yeah. Very interesting way to. So. Yes, that off. It's tough game. He's going to bounce back though. He's far too talented. Well, I'll just tell you. From just like an. An outside view. Just taking all this in with nothing else except what I saw on the field that game. Romero dobs looks terrible. I'm upset that I even drafted him. I actually want really good ideas for crossed passes doesn't like.
They just didn't look like a jail team at all. Like Ramandray was very good. Frave one wasn't playing. You know, like we're expecting a super high powered offense. Like being run by like a runner up for MVP like everything said that this was going to blow up. It was the defense on both sides that really dominated pretty much the whole game. I guess, I would say to defense is always the one to come first, right? coming right away. That's what the that's what the pro would say. Yeah. For sure. For sure. I wouldn't overreact to a poor game against a. I think I think you could easily say their top three defense in the league. Yeah. No. Absolutely. Very well said.

We're going to be at the market, mohh. Bugs ace. So pumped, 130. We get going. Kick off two o'clock for the banjo bowl. But a boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And we're going to watch the riders put another high-capacity. I wasn't looking at all. They played horrible last game with the favorite classic, a stole one. From not just Winnipeg, but from the refs as well. It was a greasy game. So they're going to look to beat down the bombers again. This time on their turf,
we will be at the market mall, Bugs ace. Live. You can come by and say hello. Maggie's going to be there. We got March coming in. She's going to be doing paw autographs. Grandpa Tom's going to be in the house. He'll be signing autographs. Cal. Or goodbye. The Seahawks going to be in there. Host of recovery with Cal. He's bringing his squad in and it's talking to the bottom line. Daddy, he's got a bunch of signing autographs too. He's going to. That's the main reason. I told him. I said we need you in here to sign autographs to your fans. And he said you got that. I told Grandpa Tom as well. He's like, Oh, graphs. What are you talking about? I'm like, Oh, Grandpa, you're so old. Dude, people love you. He's always cracking jokes. I grandpa Tom's one of the coolest dudes ever. Really appreciate him. But it's going to be a giant party. We're going to finish off our passports. So we're going to have at least 14 orders. That's the minimum. And I'm sure we'll have some more as we really get going. But we have 14 flavors left out of our passport before we win another shirt. So that's going to be awesome as well. Do not forget. Next see Mondays still going on here every Monday at both Bugsys, Marcomall and Los Angeles location. You're talking $6 Margaritas, five bucks off your order of nachos, two bucks off your tequila, and five dollar tacos,
battered fish as well as carnitas, and Cajun chicken. That's our friends of Bugsys and we love them. Oh, so much. Boutes! We are going to now jump into tonight. As I'm going to take a look at my lineups and see who I got playing tonight. Because yesterday we had boots on the ground. You know, most people are talking about the NFL being a Melbourne. And the Melbourne cricket grounds, by the way, doobie, brodie and I. When we went to Australia, we were inside the Melbourne cricket grounds watching the Christmas, the Boxing Day test match. It's like countrywide. It's their biggest event of the year in this space. It holds like 120-130,000 people. And Boxing Day, we're in there. And we were at the MCG and that's where this game is being played. And then we talked to a coach one, Adrian Balarsson, who is in Melbourne, lives there. And we were getting the house of feel over there on the grounds right now. Because LA, and we also talked about this, this is the biggest
thing to come out of tonight's game. Which side of science are you on? It's the Battle of Science. Okay? You got San Francisco, who left two weeks ago to acclimate to Australia. Okay? Acclimation, very important. Then you get the LA Rams, who showed up there today. And they are going to be there. And they are going to be there for about 30 hours and then rip right back. They're staying on Pacific time. They're not changing any clocks. They're getting in and they're getting out. So it's the Battle of Acclimation or don't break your stride, I guess. Who's going to win? Because whatever team wins tonight, that is going to be the new science going into all of these international games. It's going to change exactly how everyone does what they do. And it's going to be interesting because no, well, they do have Miles Garrett, but no big boy Aaron Donald didn't make the trip. No, AD. Yep. So that's very good news for San Francisco fans. It's going to be very cool though to see. And apparently everyone's talking about
the big game. It's actually making a buzz in Melbourne. These are two great teams. Yep. San Francisco versus an LA team. That's all, obviously. You know, big rivalry, even though they're over the pond. The big joke as well is that, uh, uh, Shane McVeigh, Son McVeigh, Son McVeigh. Sure. So yeah, coach for the LA Rams didn't want to play San Francisco in their home because every time they play San Francisco in LA, San Francisco takes over and it's an away game. So he's trying to get this game neutral, but apparently now, and this is the one thing that plays in the favor of the acclimators is they're doing all the promotional stuff. So they're out and about saying yeah San Francisco, we are the four Niners and everyone's like, yeah, we love the four Niners. There are team you came here. So they try to get away from that not having the cheers are going to be. It's going to be all San Francisco again because of that. So that is one for the acclimated spending two weeks getting everyone ready to party with you and turning them into fans. That's
very cool. Uh, tonight in our Bobby Good Times draft, I have the good, good, good, good, good, wow, all Sundays and George Kittle and my starting George Kittle tonight. I'm scared it starts George Kittle. This is your first one. Well, what are your other options? Talk of craft. Oh, I'm good. Yeah, it's just too early. We don't know what we're getting with Kittle yet. Like the big, the big scare is that he may just play a couple of snaps just to see how he's feeling type of thing, which would be quite worrisome. So all right, Kittle's standing to the bench. So I got no one going tonight in our Bobby Good Times league. What's going on in our Daffo Boone? Do you like your team? You drafted? Did you happen with that was not a yes. That was not a yeah. Who, uh, um, report cards? No, they bet. You would meet you and me at the bottom. How is that possible? I was, I thought
I didn't really good for a guy without any picks for the first four rounds because they mean nothing. That's true. It's absurd. My first pick wasn't till the fourth round. I traded everything. Remember when I let the league and points for and I was in the last place. It knows how they actually, how they actually put these report cards together. So it gives you a grade, you know, ABC like a school school anymore. Not anymore. But anyways, you get that grade and then it goes on and tries to explain how they arrived at that grade. But it doesn't because so I scroll down and said, you know, great pick whatever this one pick. And then said bad pick. And it was a guy that I drafted in the ninth round. No, they thought he should be drafted in the tenth round. And it's like, okay, like you do it. How horrible is that pick when I picked it one round or and it was just because what yeah, and it's in the ninth and tenth. That's the whole point. Yeah.
Dude, I think this draft looks really good for a guy who threw away his entire season last year. Trying to make a run with a team that was so good that it was too good and decided to stay out of the playoffs because it would have murdered everybody. We got George Kittle again in the Daffel. Yes. And now our other option here is Jason Ferguson. They're both projecting about the same. That's Dallas. That's Dallas. I'm still seeing with the Daffel, I got nothing to lose because again, I had no picks for the first three rounds. So maybe I just maybe this is where I play him. Maybe I just played Kittle. Yeah, I'd say give him a go there. Yeah, you know, I'm already you know, I want to totally yeah, who already set out the worst team the draft. And that's a draft that includes the counts like when you got when you got the count in there doing a draft and he's grading better than you. You know, you're in big trouble because he doesn't even do the draft. The guy's business guy in the world. Yeah, he'll have time for draft. He's doing better. He's auto draft. Okay, so we're leaving him in. And then the high stakes, my friend, already sitting
with 26 points from JSN. Very good start. And we're taking on Johnny Code boner. And he has seven points from Myers the Kicker. And let's see how we're looking here. Okay. So we have oh, I love seeing all these all of these red lines coming off. And yeah, who all the questionable disappearing. Yeah, I see genties clean, tates clean. That's good. I got no one else tonight except for Kittle. I got Kittle and all three of my teams. I like I always have Kittle. I love him so much. A big fan of the Kittle court. And you're trying to decide if you should start him. Yeah, well, just because it's just because this week one is coming off to Torna Killies. Like that's pretty greases us. So that is interesting. Okay, we're not going to talk about craft here too. So we're going to play craft. We're going to sit him and for sure. We got to play craft over top of all. I got nothing going on tonight. Oh, I got Mr. SCS sent me a trade. I wanted to run it by you
before I deleted it. And then three he got he sends me a message yesterday. I sent you a trade five days ago. That was the tone. Like why have you not? And then I had to send it back. Mr. Adams is not for sale. Mr. Saadna, thank you. Anyone else in my team is fully open to move. But you offered Jordan Madison and RJ Harvey for Devonte freaking out of him. I know. I'm going to do this for everyone. Do that little button right there. That said, oh, no, oh, no, I ruined it. Never mind. You accepted. That would have been the worst. Reject. There you go. Mr. SCS. And we also got another trade here from NHL legend, the great Tim Shemble Day. Chevy. Oh, this is a little bit interesting. Chevy wants to this. Why love Chevy. Chevy understands that trading and fantasy sports isn't just everything to me and nothing to you. He always has very, very reasonable trades, which I always appreciate auto trades. That's yeah. And so he wants to send over Danny Dimes and Tyler Alger. It would be my little handcuff for Mr. Love for Kyler Murray and Quentin Johnston.
And I just I paid 16 bucks for freaking Kyler Murray. I want him so bad. Okay, we that's and I don't look at the cost. I don't look at the cost now. But that's how I'm just saying that. So you understand how much I love him. I guess my dude now and him in that offer. Gotcha. Yeah, like I really don't want to. I think it's going to be incredible. Here we got him. Yeah, so and here's the thing. Handcuff for running back. Only only take the handcuff if you are very certain that they're not going to be in. Yeah, I don't really worry. My life is is absolutely confirmed. Is he? Oh, no, no, he's still questionable. And I heard today that he is going to play. So there you go. Okay. I'd say hold on. Yeah. Because then because then as soon as Jeremy, I love his back in that half of the trade or that part of the that player of a two player trade
is no more useful. I'm sending a message right now saying, love the deal. Just can't move my guy, Kyler right now. Love you. I love telling Chevy. I love him. He's always like, thanks. But when he only see a guy like once a year, that's weird. Cool. Thanks, buddy. So it's fun. But he is the frickin best. This can't move my guy, Kyler. Kyler. Yeah. Love you. Him shadow day. What a good dude. And he's just saw him on the golf course too. For those knees, he had the old knees that's getting getting worked on. Just the most consistent dude on the course. It's too tight on the pipe all day. Reject rate. Sorry, Jeremy, we're rejecting. Go ahead on the topic of golfing. Yes. I did some golfing on the weekend. Come on. Who do you golf? Younger and Ben Brody. Oh, you did the grind. We didn't even talk about the grind. Oh my god. I guess we didn't have a show Monday. Of course. Okay. That makes sense now. How was the grind?
It was good. It was good. Um, 57K. Did everyone finish? This is Ashley Akinetti from the almost famous podcast.

Your legs start to go in. You're kind of like, oh did I bite off a little too much? But at the end, in the end, I think I definitely left. There are still gas left in the tank. I think we'll try for an 80 if we can find one. Maybe and we're talking. You say we like the other guys are to that too? No. Come on. No, absolutely. How many? Just three? You broady and younger? Yeah. And they're supposed to be people. People eat the loot. Yeah. Again. Physiest guy. Him and Pat. He's this guy's ever in the history of summers. Like we can't we can't fault them for that. They're literally stopping traffic down the university drive. I think it's great. For sure. Yeah. For sure. But we were talking with some with some older dudes. Oh yeah. Like 60 60 year olds that did the 100
kilometer race. In my telling you, I bet either. Hey. Beauties. Beauties. They were they were. I mean, they were fine and they do these all the time apparently. Half. But they were reassuring us. So they were from the Kootenny area. So near near Kranbrook. But they said, oh no, we go to places. We go to places all over Alberta. Do these kind of gravel grinds. They mentioned one in a small town just south of us. Clare's home. But but then we mentioned one in drum heller. And they they said, oh yeah, we've done that one before. It was awesome. So that'd be a nice, you know, a little bit away. A little bit away. A little bit away. A little bit away. Well, yeah, down into the the badlands, right? You go down. You go up. You go. Oh, that's so much biking. Man, oh man. So you guys you went out there. You grind. And how does the grind go? Like is it just it's an race or you're just you're just doing it? It's a race. It's timed. We we start in this like park kind of location.
Go about two, three K south on a road. And then eventually you find yourself on a gravel like an old logging road. Okay. And that's the first stage of the grind was almost just a steady incline, right? Which I like I like getting that out of the way. So, but it's a challenge, man. Yeah. And tell us myself every day in this studio with all this. I don't think real challenges. Just like any other, I guess, discipline like like running triathlon. Karate, whatever. The you do. You feel you can't feel everyone's different. But like once you've accomplished that once you've done that and it you know, we were biking for three hours. So, did you guys stay together the whole time? Your body seems invincible. We tried to we lost. Brendan and I kind of lost a
broadhead for a bit. But he was eight minutes. I think he finished eight minutes or ten minutes behind us. Like that's that's shameful. That's not right. Yeah. That's the worst. No, that's horror. He should be right there with you guys. I'm very upset. That's a bad friendship by him. He's got to step it up for you. That's what I'm saying. But Gary, he made me cautious. He was going as fast as he felt safe on certain areas. When you're going 55 kilometers an hour down a very like. Grabbly grind. Not even it's not gravel. There's like rocks. You are. You are. Just shaking like crazy. And so, you got to know your bike. You've got to try it before. You you slow down. You slow down. You can say if you give them all the excuses you want. But again,
as one of our bestest friends, it's our job to sure. Benning whenever we can. And I'm sure for them now saying, come on, dude, you can't be ten minutes behind the boys. You know what I'm saying? Pick it up. And I know that's come from a guy who can never make it that far. Again, great accomplishment. Congratulations, everyone. But broads, we got to practice a little bit. I'm saying, you're going to get out there and roll the big boys. You better be honest. You had the least amount of practice. Oh, no kidding. But he's like, yeah, he like we go black. We haven't been in a while now. But we go to Lakewood Civic Center and we go and set a hit the gym. We go and sit in the steam room and then go sit in the hot tub and do the good thing. I love the steeper. Yeah. To be fair, he did swim laps. But he was training a little bit for it. It's different. Yeah, I watched the cheer them on. Every time we get the wall, like that. Yeah, boy, bad. All the people like off the sides and like, what is going on here? What's wrong with this guy? Very, very humorous times. We continue here. Thursday edition of your show hanging up with our buddy, Boontiss, out in beautiful Calgary. El Bird, how's the weather out there, buddy? It'll be a nice day. It'll be crazy.

But we got going, well, D'Lonte Adams. He's, it's going to be good to see him. I forgot about him. I have him right here on my team that's Sautner just tried to deal for. Yeah, who can I have him to make him and who can I go? Will also be playing? Yes, sir. You know, it's going to be interesting to see Mike Evans in San Francisco. I went into all of my drafts wanting to get him, and I didn't get him in one league. Very upset with myself. I'm very upset. Apparently, I wasn't the only one who was really liking him in Niners' years, you know what I'm saying? Yep, for sure. For sure. And Purdy, someone as precise and calculated and Mr. Aurelament, accurate as Purdy thrown him the ball, not that Baker Mayfield wasn't. But it's just,
it's just a completely different atmosphere and coach. So it'll be really interesting to see what he can do. And again, acclamation, the Battle of Science. The Battle of Science, going on. That's going to be so cool. Yes, D-Bo. I had to drop D-Bo in one of my teams. I had to get a defense. Gotcha. Very lame. I feel like I'm in a misdew. I feel like D-Bo is going to have a really big bounce back here. He sort of gets lost and all the stuff out there with Kittle and Evans and then Christian, like, so many studs there. He's quite easily, will be the guy who's just man coverage every game, every play. And that's how it got like that feasts. I mean, I see a big thing for Mike Evans. Yeah, Christian McCaffrey. You have him? No, nowhere. I did last year. I got in my sleeper. The sleeper leak. Yeah, I'm just going to look at this one now. This is the big C-league. The Colton Dynasty League. Very cool. McCaffrey going tonight. I didn't even look at
this team. I think my home's going to go. That's good. Oh, yeah, it's right. I got AJ Brown in this draft. And Romeo Dobs. God is the bad draft. I hate this team. I got to start Kittle and all four of my teams. I'm a Kittle guy. Certainly, I'm going to tight end university. Hopefully, hopefully he's coming back with a vengeance, which he would, right? He is an animal, right? So it's going to take some time. I could see him just coming and knocking it out of the park, but it's just a risk. You know what? If he goes off on your bench, great. You know, next week, that is going to be your start in tight end. Yep. And sort of a two-mice with craft and him. Maybe one of them is your flex, right? Because they are both really good. Tidens. I still can't believe I got them on all three. Like I got Kittle on all four of mine, and I got craft and Kittle on the other three. That's pretty crazy. Love those tight ends. So what do you see happening tonight? Besides the Battle of Science, you think acclamation is going to
take it home or the stay on the Pacific Dice? Well, the defense, like the players on their teams, they're it's going to be a stout defense. I hope it's not what what happened last night. Yeah. Well, no Aaron Donald is a very very big crack game. But the game is great. That's the problem. Man, people forget he broke the sack record last year. 23 sacks with Cleveland. What do we do with no one else on his team? Yeah, like it's nuts. Absolutely crazy. Everyone could focus on him. And he is just he's so good. Right. You see him working out with that guy from Australia? No, there's like some Aussie rules guys like five foot like six or something like that. It's a little super jackdude. And he was teaching Miles Garrett how to hit harder. So they're doing drills. And you see Miles Garrett launching this little dude, well, like super jackdude, but like shorter dude into the
air on it. He's like Matt's like he's sending this guy. And he's like a old rugby guy. So like he's teaching like the rugby moves to get extra pop in your impact. They get nuts like Miles Garrett's ready to just destroy the NFL. It's going to be like he is the reason why they are five and a half point favorites. I guess five and a half to one being the favorites for this Super Bowl this year. Just Miles Garrett alone. Yeah. With that defense that they already had there, right? Like it's craziness. Yeah. So what you're saying is Niners are going to have a tough time tonight putting up points. They will, but they have a lot of offensive weapons, right? Like as much as Garrett is the best in the biz. He, you know, he could blow through the D line only to find Christian McAfry's 10 years down down the field with the ball. Right. So that dude, yeah. You know, we have no idea what's going to happen. I hate it. There's nothing to go on yet. See like week one week one is super difficult. At the end of week one, we know a little bit more, but we still don't know what's
going to happen. There's near and that's what makes fantasy football kind of fun. That's the whole better. That's right. A man predict. But yeah, so much changes so much is undecided. Three weeks in, you can start, you know, placing some, yeah, projections, less risky bets. Well, I say it all the time, man, if you go through an entire fantasy football season, like the, I hate that we can't say the team name, but the moose, the moose, if you will, the counts team, you go through a whole year without making a single change to your roster. You ain't gonna win. Like when we got hot there for those two years, I told you this before, you had the most moves out of any team, the leak. Like we were flipping guys like we were never sitting on guys. We were always moving. Oh, yeah, I had like 50 or 60 moves, but yeah, it's crazy. And we won because of it. Like we were getting rid of guys that aren't performing and branding guys that aren't.
Very, very cool, buddy. Very cool. So who's going to win? I'm going to wake up, Frankie here. We'll do this. We'll play us out. For the record, I'm going to go counter and I'm going to say San Francisco. Good for you. Is that with points? Three and a half? Straight up. I can already tell you're not. I was going to say straight up. Yeah. And again, everyone's given this to the Randall Ray. I think 90% of the money right now is on the Rams. So, and you know what? The point that you brought up where they've got the fans. Oh, yeah. I can't wait to see that. They indeed do. And I think that's a big part of it. Right? Yeah, I should see a see a Brody's watching today. Because like he was the guy's like, we got to go listening. Like the boxing day test match at the MCG Melbourne cricket grounds. And yeah, we see man, we got so drunk there dude. Cool. And it's like on a train. So the train stops at the MCG and then yeah, back on it. Then like two
stops later. You don't have to drive. Of course. Or at the rash stadium at the Lausier Open. No, I mean, and the Lausier Open wasn't going on that time. But there was the Davis Cup practice. So we got to go watch all these tennis people go like this. So cool. This time you're in beautiful Melbourne. Melbourne, Australia. He likes the Rams. No, he doesn't. He likes the Niners. Take the Niners. Ride the dog as it seems to be the, it's usually the best way to go in these first couple of weeks. Hey, take the dog. No one knows. Everyone's just going to know what they remember. And a lot of these teams are going to be upset in guys. Very cool. But I just realized it's almost time for us to send a message to our friends over at PlainOut.com. Remember they said they have been September. You guys want to get cooking? Let us know. Maybe we'll reach out to them. PlainOut.com. We love you. Budget gamblers were the anti gamblers, if you will, of gambling. We'll tell you how to win a whole bunch of money. But you can make money from it. Yeah. Big time. It's a, it's a cat mess deal, Boone. And I love that. Right on, buddy. Well, best of luck to you.
As we get rolling with these leagues and and to you, Monday, we will assess it all as we roll into the Monday night. It's a good one. What's that Denver Dallas, I think? I think I think you're going to be awesome. So we're sure you will get you all ready for that. And then we won't be done. So they're very cool. Anything to leave us with? Have you been thinking? We've had a whole show here. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We'll see if you see how working you can pick the person whose whom I'm quoting. Perfect. Okay. So when she goes, boys, sometimes she goes, sometimes she doesn't. Ray, where she goes? We're the road, but either you've done it again. So to Ray, probably the best TV dad in the history of TV, period. Man, when he's at the dump and the balls are biting, that's tough one. And then Ricky, Ricky gets his
weener bit by snake, 30 old dump snake. I love you, buddy. Have an amazing, fantastic rest of your Thursday night. We'll be back tomorrow for the Friday fun table. And I love you.
