Speaker 1 (00:00):
So Thor and I love fantasy football. Oh yeah, we
are both in three leagues now. But I gotta be honest,
this week is like a gauntlet. It's a lot. So
four had three fantasy drafts back to back to back.
This is Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Mine was Monday, Tuesday
(00:21):
and Wednesday, and it's just a lot. You know, it's
a lot. I enjoy it. It's fun, but you know,
usually it's in person. You got to leave the house
on a Monday, yeah, Wednesday, and like, what are we
doing here?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
I wish I only did two. I tried. I tried
to get out of the Sunday They upped the they
upped the alleged price. So I tried to get out
of the Sunday League. But I felt bad. But I
think this is my last year doing this league. I
just don't like doing three leagues. It's too it's hard,
it's too much. It's it gets annoying. There's too it's
just too much.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Yeah, So you usually an in person draft is a
lot of fun, and there's a lot of stuff that
happens when you're an in person when you're in prison draft,
whoever's hosting it is usually responsible to bring food or
the commissioner or whatever like that, and it's a it's
a standard what is served at a draft? I know
(01:18):
you can't so what was served yesterday at my draft
just didn't make any sense.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
We ain't done yet. It's time for the one podcast.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Find Over a year, completely uncensored and unacting filtered except.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
For that part.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
The party.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
The show's after show starts now, So what is it
or what's the standard draft food?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
The main course is pizza, always, pizza, every time. Always.
It's the easiest thing to get, and you can have
a lot of it, order like three pies, even four
dependent people there, and you get a little chips. I
didn't see any dip, which was weird. How do you
serve chips with no dip at the draft? You can't
have chips without dip. Ruffles you got and he had
(02:11):
ruffles and regular lace.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Two plain chips.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
You have to have branch or pretty wild, right. I
think that's why it's like, I'm just gonna start playing
tortilla chips with no dip, with no sala. And then
he had and then he had a nut platter that
was a little yeah, that was love. And then and
then fruit. I understand the fruit. Not everyone's gonna like
the chips, but the nuts and no dip really threw
(02:37):
me off size by straight pezz And then he forgot
that I was sober the commissioner and offered me a
beer multiple times. I've known the guy for like twelve years.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Oh wow, I took it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
So that was that was our draft on Monday, and
then we were going to have another in person draft.
This was our work league on Tuesday. Well this this league.
These fucking guys here do this every year where they go,
we got to do it because COVID killed the in
person draft. That was five years ago, and so then
we you know, cautious in two thousand and one, and
(03:10):
then every year since, everybody always go, oh, we got
to do in person next year, in person next year.
And I'm the commissioner, so I go, yeah, sure, that's great,
sounds good. So I set it all up, make sure
we have the conference room here at the station, and
I tell everybody pizzas on me and I got it.
Well that's I'm the commissioner, so I sort of have
to do it. And then what happens? I kid you
not for fucking three years in a row. Everybody bails.
(03:33):
I can't make it. I'll be online. I can't make it.
And I'm like, why do you guys want to? You
do this to me every year?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Fuck you? It makes me crazy. So and like, what
do you got going on? What do you got going on? Nothing?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Which I I fine with that, but then why do
you always I guarantee you a couple of months to
be like, you know, we.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Got to be in person again.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
It's always the same. It's always the same dipshits. The
last thing. Really, Oh, I wish i'd call him out right.
It's always the same three dipships.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
And do they have like legitimate reasons.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Or really do you hear what I say?
Speaker 3 (04:12):
That is what it is.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
So I was actually totally fine with not doing in person.
On Tuesday, It's fun.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I was having car issues, so I was.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Oh, yeah, you were in. He was one of the dips.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
He was one.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Not true, not true, you were close, you were close,
but you gave me a one.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
He called the dealership at seven am, get my car in.
The draft was at five thirty pm.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
But you did say if I couldn't get it fixed,
I can't come.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Because I was dip ship. I mean my tire blue
on the freeway.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Now, my problem didn't ship problem.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I wasn't a dip ship that said that was what
if somebody, one person just didn't show up.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, I I legitimately thought this week I was gonna
have pizza Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, which would have been
fucking it's crazy, it's too much pizza.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
So I was fine that it got canceled and I
could be at home and just eat a regular meal whatever,
and then not have to leave my.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
House, which was nice.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
On Tuesday, and then yesterday, the final leg of the
Gauntlet was my last draft. And this draft is in
my OG league that I have been in over twenty
five years, really, and I'm sort of the nube, you know,
because it's a bunch of it's a bunch of old dudes, really,
and my buddy beat up but he's the son of
(05:31):
one of the old dudes in the league.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Dad.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, it's his dad who plays in like his uncle
plays in a bunch of older dudes.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Hello, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
What yeah, he says, he says he's actually one of
the older dudes. Now, oh wow, And he's right. So
we've been in this league for a really long time,
and they brought me in literally like twenty six or
twenty seven years ago. Crazy, and there's no change over.
Really nobody off yet, no, sockingly no. And so know
(06:00):
I've been I've been playing in this league forever. They
started this league before fantasy was really even a thing.
So they would like be in like the newspaper and
get the stats all each other and set their lineup.
There was there was no there was no internet, and
so this is how they played fantasy back in the day.
So this league has been around forever, super long.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Yeah, it is.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
But that being said, what they're a bunch of old
guys and I don't think they really even watched football anymore.
What no, I mean like they're they're they well, they
played fantasy I think to stay connected to football, But
I mean they're not. They're not paying attention to this
stuff anymore. Like the amount of times somebody would would
(06:40):
take a player last night, they would go, who's that?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Who is that?
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Who does he played for?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
How do you not know who the players are?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
God forbid, it's a rookie, you say, like O Marion
Hampton or something that no play like would they say this.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So, for example, they somebody drafted Stefan Diggs last night,
and then so they go who do he play for?
Who does he play for? And somebody yells at the Bills.
He hasn't been on the Bills in two teams. Yeah, Patriots.
I'm just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
He was on the Texans last year, is on Patriots
this year.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
These guys don't know anything. So you think I'd win
every year. I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
I don't it, which is bizarre win. Yes, they just
luck into it, but.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
They do it really the way you guys do. The
league isn't traditional, no, so like it's hard to win
that league, and honestly it's it's towards the end of
the season, it's very lucky. Like it's just lucky.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
It's crazy, it's it's so that's one I've I have
tried to get out of that league before, but but
they don't want me to. They love having me in
there because I'm like the new blood. I actually know
about football and I could tell them, no, that guy
plays for this team. That guy, that guy my favorite
is like when a guy's injured or like she Rice
is suspended for the first six games, and they think
(07:54):
they get a steal. I can't believe this guy's on
the board. I'm taking with she Rice. Dude, he's suspended
for six game.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Oh yeah, no, I don't want him.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
You shouldn't say what.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
But but like I'm the guy that's I'm like their
info guy. Yeah, you know, I'm the Adam Schefter breaking
news to them, you know. But whatever. So anyway, I'm like,
all right, pizza, you know, here we go. Well not
but so I'm like, at least I had one day
break pizza. But it's guaranteed pizza. And then they always
say bring what you want to drink and like a
(08:26):
bag of chips or cookies or something like that.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Question about the pizza, is it normally like a variety
of pizza? Are we just sticking with cheese and pepperoni?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Well, Draft, I want to get out of here. It's
a bunch of dudese.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
If you if somebody out of the draft asked for
a veggie pie, he would get made fun of. Papa John's.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
No.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
So the one on Monday, it was like a you know,
like an Italian place like that, you know, so fine.
It was three pizzas, one cheese or plain pie and
two Supremes. No pepperoni, I thought was wind?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
No, I mean again he had he had like bar nuts.
Thought no dip. No, this guy's out of control, he's
paying for it. So whatever.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Yeah, I'm a Supreme pizza guy.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
So I was stoked you were picking off the You know,
I hate pep peppers.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Somebody called some asshole you like green food? No, I
just don't like peppers. You know, I don't let his
summer man, what the Yeah, this is what happened. This
is what happens.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
You get mad fun for anything anything. Literally, breathe wrong,
what are you breathing like that fairy?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
He's right, he's right, testosterones high?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah, fall beer, no dip, It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
So I got my my suffer ready, I'm ready to go.
I went with cors Likes, which you know I can
drink a hundred those to be fine. And then I
had the ruffles cheddar sour cream delicious, right, don't need
a dip for those? You don't need a dip, you don't,
(10:22):
And I have no idea what the spread is gonna
look like. So I decided just to throw those.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
I would have gone sour cream onion potatoes.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
I thought you were there.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I have changed, really, actually the meal I've changed to
salt and vinegar. Fucking love's changed. I used to like
the chair in sour cream all the time, but now
I'm a salt and vinegar bitch. Wow, I'm not just
sur christ. I think those I would think those would
give you heartburn because cheddar and sour cream once give
(10:53):
me heartburn, so the salt and vinegar still gives me heartburn.
But okay, yeah, you don't like you don't.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
No, like Sultan, Like I see myself at a party
taking a chip out, not realizing it's assaulted vinegar, and
it's going to take me about an hour because I'm
going to walk around taking a little bike. No, I
feel like somebody is going to be watching me. But
the first bite, I'm going to be like, oh no, vinegary,
(11:23):
and then.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
I'll chip it doesn't just put the whole chip.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
In and it explodes.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
And then and then I'll take tiny bites until you.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Walk around holding a chip.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
At that point I go, sky, why are you holding
that chip?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Unless like it worked my way into the backyard.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
And then if I'm like, buy a bush, yeah, I
know you'd be like, hey, why should walk around with
the chip?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
One chip?
Speaker 4 (11:51):
She's kind for like an hour.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
It's really weird.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Eat it does take I wouldn't even clink an eye
on things are four hours to drink a couple of coffee,
So it's very strange. So I roll in to the
draft and I see the spread and I am thrown off,
completely thrown off, dude, this made no sense. Some I
(12:15):
was okay with. Some I wasn't okay with. So I
see multiple bags of chips, which is normal because that's
kind of your go to. And there was Sultan vinegar,
there's my guy one Vicki's kettle.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Like the kettle salt and vinegar chips.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
The most you would have been thrilled.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Like the kettle goes with it really well, okay.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And so there was like four different bags of chips.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Okay, no dip, really no dip. I don't understand that.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
If you buy you and you're buying chips, having it's
not really a party.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
But if you're putting out a food spread, I.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Guess I guess it's like it's like, hey, I'm gonna
buych of wings? Who want some off? Some wings? No
ranch no, ranch, don't blue cheese, nothing, just wings. What
am I going to do with this? What the fuck?
Speaker 3 (13:09):
It was salt and pepper wings. You don't need ranch,
you don't.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
But I like the option. Okay, give me the option.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
So see the chips.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Thanks, I've got it.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Next item that was on the table wild, Who thought
to bring this? They went with the toffee cashoe nuts?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
What? What the fuck? Where am I nuts? So you
talk about your nuts bread? This was like coffee coffee cashoes.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Now it's a very old person.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
I mean it was pretty wild, you know.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Yeah, you gotta look over with here.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Now. Was it from the grocery store or was it themed?
Because I've done this before, where like back in the
day when my daughter was a girl scout, I would
order like a bunch of that kind of ship and
then when i'd have to bring something to a party,
I'd be like, what's in my cupboard? And I would
find covered nuts. But you would know it would like
say girls scouting.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
No, it wasn't like that, so I think. So, yeah,
it was wild, not as wild as the next thing.
The next thing that was brought. But I liked it
because you know how I am. But it made no sense.
And even for me, I was like, I don't know
(14:26):
when to eat this. It was a giant box of
donut holes.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Random? What am I going to do with those?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
And and he was so proud of the guy that
bought eating the guy that brought him was so proud.
He walked them around to everybody. He's like, he's like, hey, man,
about these donut holes.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
I was like, thanks, Were they in the box like
from a donut shop?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Yes, the pink box, the powdered so they were really
powdered crumb.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
And then the plane cannot give people powdered without a napkin.
It's crazy. That's fucking crazy.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Powder look like and scarfish.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yeah, Like, if you're offering powdered doughnuts, I better have
a fuckingnap It's it doesn't matter. I got them over
the powders everywhere, man, That's.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Not the issue is in this fucking donut holes.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Like, what are we doing?
Speaker 3 (15:24):
This is insane?
Speaker 4 (15:26):
Like, if you're going to go with dessert in that situation,
what you go like?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Cookies that's usually brown, Yeah, that's usually one served donuts.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
I was like, can I order some eggs? Benedict too, like,
what are we doing here?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I wouldn't even think about bringing a dessert to a fantasy.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
It's just just crazy.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
One person that eats too many desserts every attacks him.
Oh you need dessert? The loser happens.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
How many cookies?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
How many cookies you crush at a fantasy.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
I'm very letting it loose there. Two pieces of pizza,
probably have three cookies, say something ones too, and I
take home for my wife.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
She's pregnant. She probably like it.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
That proa too.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Okay. Yeah, so donut holes, which really threw me off.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
And then you get to the main event, the entre.
So I'm looking around. I don't see any pizza boxes anywhere.
I'm like, this is odd. And then I look over
and on the stove is a giant pot of wieners.
What so we're going.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Hot dogs hot dog like boiled hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
In in beer. Okay, step up. But I'm just like, okay,
so but listen, I'm not angry about.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
It because you didn't have to eat pizza.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
So I didn't have to have pizza again, and I'm
stuffed with donut holes, and so I go, okay, well
I'm gonna I'm gonna start the draft. And then when
I'm done, like in the middle of somewhere where it's
i'd make my pick, I'm gonna go make my dog.
So I do that, and I walk over to the
dog and they look fine. They're you know, skinny little
dogs like nothing special, you know whatever, get the bun.
(17:15):
And then I look over it and now I'm fucked
because what the condiments are?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Ketch up? I'm a hot dog? What am I nine?
What am I nine?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Relish? And spicy mustard? I am not a spicy mustard?
Where's where's my frenches? That's all I put on. That's
all I use. That's the only thing I put on on.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Hot dog. Dude. I'm like, I don't nothing on this condiment.
And I've already got the dog in my hand. I'm
the sky with her chip. I got it, Like I can't.
I gotta do.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
Something to Edie. Just walk around for an hour and find.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I mean, it's inside sky.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Okay, this is crazy, all right.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
So I honestly don't know what the I'm gonna do.
I like, I don't want any of these conniments.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah, let me ask you. Was this your friend's dad's house?
Speaker 3 (18:10):
It was at my friend's uncle's house.
Speaker 5 (18:12):
Okay, what I would do is walk to your friend
and go, hey, bro, open up your uncle's fridge and
see if there's some frenches in there you can bring out.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
I guess I could have done that.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
We have done that if you've known these guys that long.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
It just seemed like a weird environment and weird thing
to do, Like, excuse me, may I have some frenches?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Yeah? When there's you want to talk about somebody making fun,
I'd get crushed.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
It's not like a normal party.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
You don't want sploys mustard? What are you? You know?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yea boy?
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Seriously, So I go I can't. I'm not drag alt
this thing. This is gross, dude. So I reverted to
being nine year old daddy and I went catch up
and it was the worst hot dog.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
It was disgusting.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Discussed it was disgusting.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
I hated it. I hated it in the draft, So
it really the draft was a disaster. Yeah, Now, did
I take a few donut hoes to go?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Maybe he wasn't.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
The powdered one everywhere everywhere
So Thor and I love fantasy football. Oh yeah, we
are both in three leagues now. But I gotta be honest,
this week is like a gauntlet. It's a lot. So
four had three fantasy drafts back to back to back.
This is Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Mine was Monday, Tuesday
(00:21):
and Wednesday, and it's just a lot. You know, it's
a lot. I enjoy it. It's fun, but you know,
usually it's in person. You got to leave the house
on a Monday, yeah, Wednesday, and like, what are we
doing here?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
I wish I only did two. I tried. I tried
to get out of the Sunday They upped the they
upped the alleged price. So I tried to get out
of the Sunday League. But I felt bad. But I
think this is my last year doing this league. I
just don't like doing three leagues. It's too it's hard,
it's too much. It's it gets annoying. There's too it's
just too much.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Yeah, So you usually an in person draft is a
lot of fun, and there's a lot of stuff that
happens when you're an in person when you're in prison draft,
whoever's hosting it is usually responsible to bring food or
the commissioner or whatever like that, and it's a it's
a standard what is served at a draft? I know
(01:18):
you can't so what was served yesterday at my draft
just didn't make any sense.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
We ain't done yet. It's time for the one podcast.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Find Over a year, completely uncensored and unacting filtered except.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
For that part.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
The party.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
The show's after show starts now, So what is it
or what's the standard draft food?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
The main course is pizza, always, pizza, every time. Always.
It's the easiest thing to get, and you can have
a lot of it, order like three pies, even four
dependent people there, and you get a little chips. I
didn't see any dip, which was weird. How do you
serve chips with no dip at the draft? You can't
have chips without dip. Ruffles you got and he had
(02:11):
ruffles and regular lace.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Two plain chips.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
You have to have branch or pretty wild, right. I
think that's why it's like, I'm just gonna start playing
tortilla chips with no dip, with no sala. And then
he had and then he had a nut platter that
was a little yeah, that was love. And then and
then fruit. I understand the fruit. Not everyone's gonna like
the chips, but the nuts and no dip really threw
(02:37):
me off size by straight pezz And then he forgot
that I was sober the commissioner and offered me a
beer multiple times. I've known the guy for like twelve years.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Oh wow, I took it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
So that was that was our draft on Monday, and
then we were going to have another in person draft.
This was our work league on Tuesday. Well this this league.
These fucking guys here do this every year where they go,
we got to do it because COVID killed the in
person draft. That was five years ago, and so then
we you know, cautious in two thousand and one, and
(03:10):
then every year since, everybody always go, oh, we got
to do in person next year, in person next year.
And I'm the commissioner, so I go, yeah, sure, that's great,
sounds good. So I set it all up, make sure
we have the conference room here at the station, and
I tell everybody pizzas on me and I got it.
Well that's I'm the commissioner, so I sort of have
to do it. And then what happens? I kid you
not for fucking three years in a row. Everybody bails.
(03:33):
I can't make it. I'll be online. I can't make it.
And I'm like, why do you guys want to? You
do this to me every year?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Fuck you? It makes me crazy. So and like, what
do you got going on? What do you got going on? Nothing?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Which I I fine with that, but then why do
you always I guarantee you a couple of months to
be like, you know, we.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Got to be in person again.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
It's always the same. It's always the same dipshits. The
last thing. Really, Oh, I wish i'd call him out right.
It's always the same three dipships.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
And do they have like legitimate reasons.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Or really do you hear what I say?
Speaker 3 (04:12):
That is what it is.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
So I was actually totally fine with not doing in person.
On Tuesday, It's fun.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I was having car issues, so I was.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Oh, yeah, you were in. He was one of the dips.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
He was one.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Not true, not true, you were close, you were close,
but you gave me a one.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
He called the dealership at seven am, get my car in.
The draft was at five thirty pm.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
But you did say if I couldn't get it fixed,
I can't come.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Because I was dip ship. I mean my tire blue
on the freeway.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Now, my problem didn't ship problem.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I wasn't a dip ship that said that was what
if somebody, one person just didn't show up.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, I I legitimately thought this week I was gonna
have pizza Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, which would have been
fucking it's crazy, it's too much pizza.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
So I was fine that it got canceled and I
could be at home and just eat a regular meal whatever,
and then not have to leave my.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
House, which was nice.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
On Tuesday, and then yesterday, the final leg of the
Gauntlet was my last draft. And this draft is in
my OG league that I have been in over twenty
five years, really, and I'm sort of the nube, you know,
because it's a bunch of it's a bunch of old dudes, really,
and my buddy beat up but he's the son of
(05:31):
one of the old dudes in the league.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Dad.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, it's his dad who plays in like his uncle
plays in a bunch of older dudes.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Hello, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
What yeah, he says, he says he's actually one of
the older dudes. Now, oh wow, And he's right. So
we've been in this league for a really long time,
and they brought me in literally like twenty six or
twenty seven years ago. Crazy, and there's no change over.
Really nobody off yet, no, sockingly no. And so know
(06:00):
I've been I've been playing in this league forever. They
started this league before fantasy was really even a thing.
So they would like be in like the newspaper and
get the stats all each other and set their lineup.
There was there was no there was no internet, and
so this is how they played fantasy back in the day.
So this league has been around forever, super long.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Yeah, it is.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
But that being said, what they're a bunch of old
guys and I don't think they really even watched football anymore.
What no, I mean like they're they're they well, they
played fantasy I think to stay connected to football, But
I mean they're not. They're not paying attention to this
stuff anymore. Like the amount of times somebody would would
(06:40):
take a player last night, they would go, who's that?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Who is that?
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Who does he played for?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
How do you not know who the players are?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
God forbid, it's a rookie, you say, like O Marion
Hampton or something that no play like would they say this.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So, for example, they somebody drafted Stefan Diggs last night,
and then so they go who do he play for?
Who does he play for? And somebody yells at the Bills.
He hasn't been on the Bills in two teams. Yeah, Patriots.
I'm just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
He was on the Texans last year, is on Patriots
this year.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
These guys don't know anything. So you think I'd win
every year. I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
I don't it, which is bizarre win. Yes, they just
luck into it, but.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
They do it really the way you guys do. The
league isn't traditional, no, so like it's hard to win
that league, and honestly it's it's towards the end of
the season, it's very lucky. Like it's just lucky.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
It's crazy, it's it's so that's one I've I have
tried to get out of that league before, but but
they don't want me to. They love having me in
there because I'm like the new blood. I actually know
about football and I could tell them, no, that guy
plays for this team. That guy, that guy my favorite
is like when a guy's injured or like she Rice
is suspended for the first six games, and they think
(07:54):
they get a steal. I can't believe this guy's on
the board. I'm taking with she Rice. Dude, he's suspended
for six game.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Oh yeah, no, I don't want him.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
You shouldn't say what.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
But but like I'm the guy that's I'm like their
info guy. Yeah, you know, I'm the Adam Schefter breaking
news to them, you know. But whatever. So anyway, I'm like,
all right, pizza, you know, here we go. Well not
but so I'm like, at least I had one day
break pizza. But it's guaranteed pizza. And then they always
say bring what you want to drink and like a
(08:26):
bag of chips or cookies or something like that.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Question about the pizza, is it normally like a variety
of pizza? Are we just sticking with cheese and pepperoni?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Well, Draft, I want to get out of here. It's
a bunch of dudese.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
If you if somebody out of the draft asked for
a veggie pie, he would get made fun of. Papa John's.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
No.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
So the one on Monday, it was like a you know,
like an Italian place like that, you know, so fine.
It was three pizzas, one cheese or plain pie and
two Supremes. No pepperoni, I thought was wind?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
No, I mean again he had he had like bar nuts.
Thought no dip. No, this guy's out of control, he's
paying for it. So whatever.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Yeah, I'm a Supreme pizza guy.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
So I was stoked you were picking off the You know,
I hate pep peppers.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Somebody called some asshole you like green food? No, I
just don't like peppers. You know, I don't let his
summer man, what the Yeah, this is what happened. This
is what happens.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
You get mad fun for anything anything. Literally, breathe wrong,
what are you breathing like that fairy?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
He's right, he's right, testosterones high?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah, fall beer, no dip, It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
So I got my my suffer ready, I'm ready to go.
I went with cors Likes, which you know I can
drink a hundred those to be fine. And then I
had the ruffles cheddar sour cream delicious, right, don't need
a dip for those? You don't need a dip, you don't,
(10:22):
And I have no idea what the spread is gonna
look like. So I decided just to throw those.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
I would have gone sour cream onion potatoes.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
I thought you were there.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I have changed, really, actually the meal I've changed to
salt and vinegar. Fucking love's changed. I used to like
the chair in sour cream all the time, but now
I'm a salt and vinegar bitch. Wow, I'm not just
sur christ. I think those I would think those would
give you heartburn because cheddar and sour cream once give
(10:53):
me heartburn, so the salt and vinegar still gives me heartburn.
But okay, yeah, you don't like you don't.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
No, like Sultan, Like I see myself at a party
taking a chip out, not realizing it's assaulted vinegar, and
it's going to take me about an hour because I'm
going to walk around taking a little bike. No, I
feel like somebody is going to be watching me. But
the first bite, I'm going to be like, oh no, vinegary,
(11:23):
and then.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
I'll chip it doesn't just put the whole chip.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
In and it explodes.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
And then and then I'll take tiny bites until you.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Walk around holding a chip.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
At that point I go, sky, why are you holding
that chip?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Unless like it worked my way into the backyard.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
And then if I'm like, buy a bush, yeah, I
know you'd be like, hey, why should walk around with
the chip?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
One chip?
Speaker 4 (11:51):
She's kind for like an hour.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
It's really weird.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Eat it does take I wouldn't even clink an eye
on things are four hours to drink a couple of coffee,
So it's very strange. So I roll in to the
draft and I see the spread and I am thrown off,
completely thrown off, dude, this made no sense. Some I
(12:15):
was okay with. Some I wasn't okay with. So I
see multiple bags of chips, which is normal because that's
kind of your go to. And there was Sultan vinegar,
there's my guy one Vicki's kettle.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Like the kettle salt and vinegar chips.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
The most you would have been thrilled.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Like the kettle goes with it really well, okay.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And so there was like four different bags of chips.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Okay, no dip, really no dip. I don't understand that.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
If you buy you and you're buying chips, having it's
not really a party.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
But if you're putting out a food spread, I.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Guess I guess it's like it's like, hey, I'm gonna
buych of wings? Who want some off? Some wings? No
ranch no, ranch, don't blue cheese, nothing, just wings. What
am I going to do with this? What the fuck?
Speaker 3 (13:09):
It was salt and pepper wings. You don't need ranch,
you don't.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
But I like the option. Okay, give me the option.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
So see the chips.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Thanks, I've got it.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Next item that was on the table wild, Who thought
to bring this? They went with the toffee cashoe nuts?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
What? What the fuck? Where am I nuts? So you
talk about your nuts bread? This was like coffee coffee cashoes.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Now it's a very old person.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
I mean it was pretty wild, you know.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Yeah, you gotta look over with here.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Now. Was it from the grocery store or was it themed?
Because I've done this before, where like back in the
day when my daughter was a girl scout, I would
order like a bunch of that kind of ship and
then when i'd have to bring something to a party,
I'd be like, what's in my cupboard? And I would
find covered nuts. But you would know it would like
say girls scouting.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
No, it wasn't like that, so I think. So, yeah,
it was wild, not as wild as the next thing.
The next thing that was brought. But I liked it
because you know how I am. But it made no sense.
And even for me, I was like, I don't know
(14:26):
when to eat this. It was a giant box of
donut holes.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Random? What am I going to do with those?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
And and he was so proud of the guy that
bought eating the guy that brought him was so proud.
He walked them around to everybody. He's like, he's like, hey, man,
about these donut holes.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
I was like, thanks, Were they in the box like
from a donut shop?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Yes, the pink box, the powdered so they were really
powdered crumb.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
And then the plane cannot give people powdered without a napkin.
It's crazy. That's fucking crazy.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Powder look like and scarfish.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yeah, Like, if you're offering powdered doughnuts, I better have
a fuckingnap It's it doesn't matter. I got them over
the powders everywhere, man, That's.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Not the issue is in this fucking donut holes.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Like, what are we doing?
Speaker 3 (15:24):
This is insane?
Speaker 4 (15:26):
Like, if you're going to go with dessert in that situation,
what you go like?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Cookies that's usually brown, Yeah, that's usually one served donuts.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
I was like, can I order some eggs? Benedict too, like,
what are we doing here?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I wouldn't even think about bringing a dessert to a fantasy.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
It's just just crazy.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
One person that eats too many desserts every attacks him.
Oh you need dessert? The loser happens.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
How many cookies?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
How many cookies you crush at a fantasy.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
I'm very letting it loose there. Two pieces of pizza,
probably have three cookies, say something ones too, and I
take home for my wife.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
She's pregnant. She probably like it.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
That proa too.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Okay. Yeah, so donut holes, which really threw me off.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
And then you get to the main event, the entre.
So I'm looking around. I don't see any pizza boxes anywhere.
I'm like, this is odd. And then I look over
and on the stove is a giant pot of wieners.
What so we're going.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Hot dogs hot dog like boiled hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
In in beer. Okay, step up. But I'm just like, okay,
so but listen, I'm not angry about.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
It because you didn't have to eat pizza.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
So I didn't have to have pizza again, and I'm
stuffed with donut holes, and so I go, okay, well
I'm gonna I'm gonna start the draft. And then when
I'm done, like in the middle of somewhere where it's
i'd make my pick, I'm gonna go make my dog.
So I do that, and I walk over to the
dog and they look fine. They're you know, skinny little
dogs like nothing special, you know whatever, get the bun.
(17:15):
And then I look over it and now I'm fucked
because what the condiments are?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Ketch up? I'm a hot dog? What am I nine?
What am I nine?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Relish? And spicy mustard? I am not a spicy mustard?
Where's where's my frenches? That's all I put on. That's
all I use. That's the only thing I put on on.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Hot dog. Dude. I'm like, I don't nothing on this condiment.
And I've already got the dog in my hand. I'm
the sky with her chip. I got it, Like I can't.
I gotta do.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
Something to Edie. Just walk around for an hour and find.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I mean, it's inside sky.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Okay, this is crazy, all right.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
So I honestly don't know what the I'm gonna do.
I like, I don't want any of these conniments.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah, let me ask you. Was this your friend's dad's house?
Speaker 3 (18:10):
It was at my friend's uncle's house.
Speaker 5 (18:12):
Okay, what I would do is walk to your friend
and go, hey, bro, open up your uncle's fridge and
see if there's some frenches in there you can bring out.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
I guess I could have done that.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
We have done that if you've known these guys that long.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
It just seemed like a weird environment and weird thing
to do, Like, excuse me, may I have some frenches?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Yeah? When there's you want to talk about somebody making fun,
I'd get crushed.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
It's not like a normal party.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
You don't want sploys mustard? What are you? You know?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yea boy?
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Seriously, So I go I can't. I'm not drag alt
this thing. This is gross, dude. So I reverted to
being nine year old daddy and I went catch up
and it was the worst hot dog.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
It was disgusting.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Discussed it was disgusting.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
I hated it. I hated it in the draft, So
it really the draft was a disaster. Yeah, Now, did
I take a few donut hoes to go?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Maybe he wasn't.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
The powdered one everywhere everywhere
