The Biggest Upset In Flock League History

The Flock League37:30

Transcription

[ __ ] me, man. Like, are like why? Why? That was the most pathetic thing I have ever watched.

>> Ready to run 50 miles. And you know who I don't see out here? I am about to crash out. Oh, Danny, my friend, it brings me no joy to record this clip. Let's go ahead and let's check out your starting lineup with no Travis Hunter over the next few weeks because already I mean you were down bad big fella but now what we are having to put Colton Lovelins back inside that starting lineup for the third straight the third time this season the fourth time this season you can't let go of him and honestly he's going to be your downfall.

So, here I am, you know, driving to my haircut, blasting tunes in the car. I look down for one second to change the song in Rapaort. Travis Hunter is going to be placed on IR. We don't even know if he's going to be available for the January playoff push. It's just like, can I have some nice things for once? Can I can I have anything that's nice? The breakout number two overall pick, 24 plus points before the buy. Everything we're hearing, this guy's going to be a breakout after the buy from his own head coach. first in the progression, number one wide receiver on Jacksonville. And then a randoming Wednesday practice happens and this guy is oning IR. We saw last year mying number one wide receiver, his quarterback takes him out with a dolphin dive to the knee. Now my breakout young wide receiver. Are we serious?

[ __ ] mean, man. Like are like why? Why? Like I am about to go walk into my barber shop balling my eyes out because Travis Hunter just went down for the year. You guys don't understand just how much thising means to me. Just how much passion I [ __ ] have. I literally get a grown man to cry. Like I'm not even joking. Like I'm trying not to right now. And this shit's just coming out of my eyeballs. Like what the [ __ ]

Here's the difference between the ladster and yours truly. I have the it factor, right? I have the Spidey senses. I know, and I mean I know when something bad's about to happen to a player. as evidenced. V, oh, we trade away Cam Scataboo, injured. We trade away Quinn Sean Judkins, injured. Nobody I draft this year gets injured. Is that a coincidence or is it investing into my training staff and understanding my players at a deeper level than Danny does where Danny's willing to go out there, he'll draft Rasheed Rice, he'll draft Travis Hunter. I mean, hell, he'll draft anybody that's going to go down for the season.

Finished my haircut and there was only one thing I was thinking that entire time on that barber's chair. Barber's asking me, "Hey Danny, you want a lineup? You need to clean out your beard?" Asking me all these questions and all I kept thinking in the back of my head is I just want Travis Hunter's knee back.

>> I need to address something. Avery continues to beat the drums like Domain's one of the best teams here because we have the only championship. Fair Avery, you do have the only championship. If me and Danny teamed up and colluded like you guys did and I bent over backwards and traded Danny my entire team like Nathan did last year, I'm sure we'd have a championship as well. Now, I know his comeback's going to be Cory in the toilet bowl last year. You don't even get to talk. Well, nowhere near the toilet bowl right now. Danny has a 500 record and both of us were top five in the power rankings when we did it. And no one else, no other channel with two members was even close. Yeah. I mean, I think that we have a right to talk now. I mean, Nathan hadn't learned anything from last year. If Nathan was, you know, bouncing back and Domain was still doing well, you could be like, "Yeah, Domain's got their [ __ ] together." It's like, "You have your [ __ ] together, but your channel mate continues to to throw his chances of winning this league." And uh it's splashing back on you rightfully so.

That was the most pathetic thing I have ever watched. Hey everybody, Cory's top five in the mid-season power rankings for the Flock League. Hang the banner. Are you kidding me? Hey Avery, I know you won the championship, but uh I'm in fourth place right now, so I feel like I feel like I'm doing pretty well. Cory's argument of why Fantasy Stock Exchange is good at this is because they had two top five teams in the power rankings. The hypothetical rankings, you lost the league and um Danny was also in the toilet bowl with you. So you can talk about all you want. Power rankings this, power rankings that. Clearly, you wanted to do them so badly because you and Danny wanted to rank yourselves highly so you could oh, in this hypothetical world have a good team. All I'm seeing is a YouTube channel that's never made it to the playoffs in this league and has been bound for the toilet bowl ever since we started.

>> I cannot believe I'm doing this. I agree with Mason Dodd. Mason's right. Mason and I are united on something because Mason and I are, you know, fighting over, hey, I've got a bunch of regular season wins. I've got the championship and the playoff wins. And so, you know, we're the Chiefs and we're the Eagles and we're fighting about who's the better team, who's the better dynasty, blah blah blah. And then you have the Jets, the Cory's the Jets. And Cory's like, "Hey, what about me? You both suck. I'm the best actually." And everybody's like, "What? That's what's happening in this league right now."

Big news. I picked up Kyle Manungi off of waiverss. Always stash those backup running backs just in case on your roster. just in case Swift ever went down or he got a bigger role. The week I need him and I'm down a running back. He's the starter against the Bengals. Perfect, perfect spot start this week.

>> All right, we're up this beautiful Saturday morning, ready to run 50 miles. And you know who I don't see out here? Zachary Dodd. That's who. And you know what they say, fantasy football team's only as good as its leader. And Zach, you're letting them down. You know, I don't think it could have been better time that I made all these clips of Mason and then the next clip I see is him running 50 miles. It that's just that's just poetry. It's weird. No one else really feels a need to tell the public or this channel how active they are. But in case nobody's saying it, very proud of you, Mason Dodd, for going out there and being active. Unfortunately, not only did Mason run 50 miles, he also ran from the smoke. He declined our offer. Did not want to take on the challenge that we presented. Not much you can do there, guys. We did our best. For now, it remains a mystery.

All right, I am reacting live right now. Um, I just see a bunch of stuff in the sleeper chat. I see his trade was processed, so I didn't want to I just figured I'd come on here Sunday morning before the games. I'm taking on the devs before we get into this trade reaction. They don't have DeAndre Swift, so whatever voodoo magic my team has when I face another team and they're missing players on Bayern injuries, it just continues cuz now the Devs have to start Brian Robinson. The matchup is by no means a slam dunk. Now, here's what I'll go to. I'm just going to go to the chat. I'm going to go to the last time that somebody talked in the chat and it was yesterday. Danny, he ends up putting a tra player on the trade block. It's Travis Hunter who was trending up perfectly for him. Seems to have suffered some sort of borderline serious knee injury in practice. So, he basically just said, "The highest bidder, my current best bid is $4." And I'm just scrolling down here and it looks like the trade went through to Avery for $10. I'm not going to lie, I just didn't see this. I was out and about. I was helping Mason. We were finishing up uh his 50 mile race, running the final 10 with him. The last thing I was going to do was open the sleeper chat. So, I did not see this one at all. I probably would have outbid $10. Uh, but yeah, I mean, Avery's team just gets potentially better when it comes to the playoff push. Um, so that one kind of stinks since I didn't have my phone notifications on, but but I don't really think it'll matter in the long run.

Danny so damn bad after his haircut about Travis Hunter going to IR trades him for 10 fab to Avery. Pennies. Pennies. We need a wellness check on Danny because this man is clearly not all right.

>> So, it's Sunday morning in the Flock League. I am just devastated because the Blue Jays lost probably the most heartbreaking thing I've ever seen in my entire life. Looking at these matchups for the week coming out of Thursday Night Football, I'm up 36.96 points to Bedaki here. Got a pretty nice performance out of Lamar and Z Flowers. Around the league, we got Nathan with a pretty big performance on Thursday night from the Baltimore Ravens defense. That definitely gives him an edge. Danny and Sammy both had some matchups going with uh Derrick Henry going for 13 points and Devon Achen going for 16. Not great performances from either of them. And then Sal had kicker Tyler Loop going. So not a whole lot of action around the Thursday night slate here. Nothing's really changed too much with a lot of these matchups. Although lots of people are going to be starting backup running backs this week. The Trebon Hendersons, the Kyle Manang guys. Bunch of backup running back fillins for a lot of people around the Flock League.

Special something came in the mail. Woo! We got someing heat, baby. Let's go. Welcome to the squad, JJ.

So, being in a league with Mason Dodd, uh, almost every single week, you start to learn stuff about yourself that you never knew cuz it's just not true. Here's what I'm going to do. This is a Sunday my time, okay? And I know Mason Dod's going to back out of the bet. And here are the type I'm going to guess right now what sort of verbiage he's probably going to use. So, what he'll probably do is lie about the bet. He'll probably say something stupid like, "Zack wanted me to binge like five players." Guarantee it's going to happen. Second thing, he's going to try and disrespect me by saying, "Well, I'm in the playoffs. All right, your team is not as as good as mine, so uh I care more for some reason." Third thing he's going to do is going to say that I'm scared. And the last thing he's going to do is take no accountability. That's just what we typically see from a Mason Dodd clip.

Here's exactly how scared of us Zachary Savage is. He comes through and he says, "Oh, if you bench Josh Allen and Josh Jacobs, um, then maybe I'll have a fair shot to beat you and I will take off my hat." I go, "Oh, well, unlike you, I'm still playing for something in this league, right? I'm I'm still in it. I'm still fighting for a buy, so I'm not willing to do anything like that. But I'll make a real bet with you." Well, name your name your price. What do you want to do? I win. You take off the hat. You win. What do I have to do? And he shuts it down immediately. He knows he's not going to win. He knows there's a 0.0% chance of that happening. So, I try to make an official bet, ladies and gentlemen. But sadly, he is not willing to accept the challenge.

In quite literally the least surprising news of the week, Mason Dodd replies exactly how I thought he was going to. Literally can read this man like a book. And uh yeah, no accountability again. This man decides to start off the week trying to challenge me. Okay, that's the only reason I even replied back to him. And then crickets. Cowardly stuff from a king.

>> Get him, Jordan. Get him, Jordan. See you later. 27, where you at, brother?

>> It is a good start to the one:00 games. I just had to once again prove at least for like, you know, couple of seconds to set it all up to show that I could watch some football. We have touchdowns, a pass from DJ Moore. McCaffrey has 14 points in like the first quarter. Now, Jonathan Taylor isn't doing anything yet. That hopefully has to change in the second half. I am expected to win, but we're going to need Jonathan Taylor to do something. So, uh, if JT can get going, we got some guys in the afternoon games. But a lovely start. Drew is delicious. The best snack probably right now in America. If you don't know, now you know.

>> I'm going to tell you right now, Nico Collins could never.

>> Now Tucker Craft is down, man. Tucker C. Same week as Travis Hunter, man. That's two starters, man. Noing way. No.

>> Oh, apparently it was only a cramp. Thanking God.

>> I mean, my guy T. Higgins touchdown so nice he had to do it twice.

>> Cincinnati.

>> T. Higgins just scored his second touchdown of the game. That's a fast.

>> I hading Coulson Lovelin in the lineup and took him out after KT got announced active.

>> I missed the Coulson Lovelin breakout week. This is this is insane. Sitting here thinking how the hell are we letting Drake London with 6 minutes to go in this game already up 25 points? Then I realized I drafted him. I mean, he didn't get to see any playing time for us. Sadly, we had to let him go. But I'm looking at Zach's team here and I'm starting to realize, well, I drafted Jaden Daniels. I drafted Jaory Krosky, Mary. I drafted Drakelin. I drafted half these players. Did the defensive coordinator even change the game plan? Did Did he change the game? They have our calls. They know what we're trying to do before we do it. Just straight up embarrassing.

>> Mason, if you're in need of a wide receiver, hit me up, bro. I have a backup quarterback. He's just sitting there. Caleb Williams. two catches, 22 yards, and a touchdown. He'd probably be your best receiver on your team, realistically. So, if you if you need a receiver, I got you.

>> Well, this is awkward. I um may or may not have put the order in before we traded you away to Nathan, man. Uh Nathan, you think you'll fit in this dress?

>> Danny, I already have two Puka jerseys. I would love to take on a third. That one looks pretty sick. So, I'll take you up on that offer. Mason, if you could um just DM me your uh billing, shipping information, whatever, I'm going to send you a little gift for T Hagens just as a thank you. You know, I'm really grateful for you sending them over to me. I just want to show you how grateful I am. So, let me know.

>> What the [ __ ] Llin, oh my god.

>> All right, so we're coming out of the 400 p.m. window and things are not looking great. My team kind of underperformed. Chase Brown and Darius Sllayton ended up getting some garbage time production. I fear that Bodaki is probably going to take me down unless something unforeseen happens here. Not a good situation for me. Looking around at the rest of the league, it looks like we're going to have a tight match up between Nathan and Thomas the editor. It looks like Puka Nakua is already cooking for Nathan here. He has a 67% chance of winning this as of right now. Avery looking at a 82% chance to take down Nick the editor with Patrick Mahomes and the Rasheed Rice stack going right now. We'll see how that one plays out. Danny leaves Coloulson Lovelin on his bench, which absolutely stings, but he's got a tight end now with Tucker Craft out for a little bit. Sammy Stax's team is an absolute um frying wagon at the moment. And then S cooking the Devs pretty easily. The closest matchup I would say just based on projections, maybe Zack versus Mason just cuz they're both at like 80 points right now. Mason does have Josh Allen already kind of cooking up and Zack, you know, had most of his players play already. But if Washington can get it done tonight, Jaory Crosky, Merritt, Jaden Daniels, Brandon Aubrey on Monday night, he should have a decent chance to be able to score some points and that one will be one that a lot of us are monitoring, myself, Avery, some of the other teams that are trying to hope to get that second by week. I think a lot of us are going to be hoping that Mason loses to Zack in that matchup.

>> It's just absolutely easy for Devonte Adams on the quick slant touchdown. I mean, I'm getting closer and closer as the games go on here in the second slate of games. I have Jimmy and Shakira. Shakira, another game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Something special is happening over here. Could I potentially go three and 0.

>> Nick, you should have never traded him to me.

>> He learned how to be a running back. You should have never traded him. I know the QJ touchdown was revenge, too, but you should have never traded him to me. You should have never done it.

>> Um, I'm sorry, Avery. What did you say? I just I couldn't hear you over my uh Kairen Williams touchdown.

>> I am about to crash out. You're about to see me crash out. I was stuck at 99% chance to win the entire afternoon until the fourth quarter of the Jaguars Raiders game. two teams that shouldn't be in the NFL and they decide to score 44 points and Bowowers drops 43 on me. 43 points from a from a tight end. I had 33 from Craft last week. I had 35 from McBride the week before and now I have 43 from Bowowers. What do I need to do to just get an easy win? What do I need to do? So, we go in tomorrow, Monday night. You know, we did this already once this season and we needed five points from Hampton and he got me three. We need four like 15 from Javvante Williams. I What am What am I supposed to do? I'm at literally at a loss. I literally don't know what to say. I needed to win this week and I literally had it. I literally had a win and that bald freicker just killed me. Nick and Bowers. Woo! Brock Bower's baby. Oh my. I hate this league. I hate it. This is great news for me. I now I know that George KD's going to have a huge game in week 11 when I play Avery.

What a crazy week in the Flock League. We are about 15 minutes out from Sunday Night Football. And a couple of true contenders on the ropes here. There's a couple of teams that could go down. Starting with what I consider to be maybe the biggest upset of the week. The 1 in7 editor Nick is currently within striking distance. Currently ahead 14 points against Zero Dark Avery who right now is in contention for a buy. Voted number two team in the power rankings. But Brock Bowers in his return a 43point haymaker for Nick the editor on 127 yards, 12 catches, three touchdowns. If Javvante Williams goes under 14 points here, then Avery will drop to five and four. But I think he should be able to get that done given how good Javvante has been. Moving into Mason versus Zack. Zack still fighting for his season. Mason of course looking to secure that buy. And Mason's team is done. 123 points is what they put up. Zack, Jaden Daniels, and Bill Merritt about to kick off right now. And Brandon Aubrey on Monday night. Myself. Another team, you know, potentially in contention for the buy here, especially if Mason does in fact lose. I am losing to bed right now. When you have Kamani Vidal drop three points, you leave Daltton Concade on your bench. you don't really deserve to win. And uh Baki is about to have Charbanet and Zo andy has the Cowboys going tomorrow night. The only way I would win this matchup is if Maserati Marv absolutely breaks out and goes for 100 yards and three touchdowns or something like that. I am probably going down at the hands of Bodaki here. The other matchups seem to be pretty cut and dry, pretty straight away. If Nathan gets some points here from Jake Ferguson and also Sam Darnold on Sunday night, he should be able to take down Thomas. Danny looks like he will fall to Sammy Stacks here. S easily takes care of the devs. Those are the matchup updates for the Flock League heading into Sunday Night Football. Lots of action left to go. Couple of really, really highc caliber teams could go down this week. If a couple of us lose here, Mason, Avery, myself, we could be looking at a very, very tight playoff race. We'll see what happens heading into Sunday Night Football. Good luck to everybody.

All right, guys. Going into Sunday Night Football, I do have three players left and I'm feeling pretty good. Why? because I'm currently up by three points against BCH, but I have two players playing on Sunday night, which is the Zack brothers and Zack Sharpen and Zack Z, if you will. If these guys can give me a comfortable enough lead, I'll feel pretty comfortable going into Monday night. So, hey, I could be going 3 and 0. And your boy is not going to Denny's. Come on, baby. Talk me up. I need this win more than a fish needs water. If I win this game right now, it gives me a real shot to separate with S and we can be the top two teams in the league and it won't even be remotely close. And what has to happen this Sunday night? You know, if you're playing Zack, it's always going to come down to the very end. Zach likes the drama and we know he doesn't have the clutch gene. Right now, we are up 123 to 77 and Zach has Jaden Daniels Jakori Kroski Merritt going in about five minutes from now. So, here's what we need. The Seattle Seahawks defense come through for us. Please, for the love of God, shut down Washington. We'll see if we can stop him. And it's probably going to come down to Monday night. Look at this. Oh, that is right. Oh, nope. He's not down. He's going. He's going. He's gone. He's gone. He's gone. If y'all don't know, Mr. Zachary Savage is a Commanders fan, a Chiefs fan, and his own fantasy team. He's riding and dying with the Washington Commanders with the combination of Jaden Daniels and Jakori Kroski Merritt. They're about to go 280 in the first 19 minutes of this game. If I'm looking at our matchup now, it's GG's. It's over. Wrap it up. Like Zachary Savage, and maybe this bites me in the ass, but it was a pleasure playing you. It was a pleasure beating you. And honestly, it was very, very enjoyable. I wanted this one very badly. But now the real question we have to ask is, is it time for Bodaki to take over all of Fantasy Land? Because Bodaki at this point is rising from the depths, coming from absolutely nowhere. He takes me down and all of a sudden his players get confidence. They go, "Oh my gosh, if we can beat the team of Destiny, we can beat anyone." So Bodaki is on a three-game win streak going from 0 and6 to 3-6 after we beat Zack this week. Zach is also going to be 3 and six. And yeah, this is just absolutely wild. And honestly, it looks like Sal and I are separating from the rest of the league.

>> Well, thankfully for the second straight week, we don't have to sweat on Monday Night Football. We've already locked up the victory against the Devs. And there's a chance there's a chance it it's not a guarantee by any means, but there's a chance that we could have a two to three-game lead on a first round buy. Unfortunately, it looks like Mason is going to win this week. Zach's going to lose. He ended up getting nothing from some of his guys on Sunday night. I mean, if I'm eight and one, ideally, ideally, you'd have a multiple game lead on the number one overall spot, which again, in this league, reminder, if you have the number one spot, not only do you get a buy, but then in the final four of the playoffs, you get to choose your opponent. So, ideally, like my guys tonight, we just wouldn't go out there. I could call up Arizona, call up Dallas and be like, "Hey, don't put George Pickkins or Trey McBride out there. We need them for next week in the playoffs. Let's not risk an injury." But if they're going to go out there, well then I'm going to root for some points. But more importantly, there is one matchup in the Flock League tonight that actually is going to matter and maybe has some real chance of an upset. As I look over the rest of the league matchups right now, they're basically all decided. It does look like Bodaki is going to go home and take on his third straight win, by the way, which puts him maybe like one or two games out of a playoff spot after not having any wins a month ago. Shout out Baki for that. But right now, most of these match ups are already decided besides one. Besides one that has a real chance right now to be a sweat all the way until the fourth quarter on Monday night, keeping us all up and just shit-talking, which is perfect. That's why we love fantasy football. It's going to be Avery against Nick. Nick, who arguably has the worst team in this league right now. A lot of decimated by injuries, but there's a chance he defeats Avery this week. Avery's team has been playing good. Avery has Javvante Williams tonight, but he's still down by about 14 fantasy points. He needs 14 to 15 fantasy points out of Javvante Williams. something that Javvante has done in the majority of his games this year. But in two games this year, he's had less than 14 fantasy points. So, there is a real sweat that's going to happen tonight. And I feel bad for Avery. The only reason this is even a possibility is because Brock Bowers for Nick. I think his second round, maybe first round pick. I think it was early second round. He reached on him like 13th overall or something. He came back and he had three touchdowns, 43 fantasy points scored in the last seconds of overtime just to give Nick a chance and a decent chance to win this matchup. Avery two weeks ago against me had it in the bag. Christian McAffrey drops 45 or 40 plus points on him. Avery this week had it in the bag and Brock Bowers in overtime in the late slate continues to score touchdowns late in that game and drop 40 plus fantasy points. We're all going to be sweating tonight that one matchup. And there's a reason why. If Avery was to lose this matchup and Javvante didn't get there, I would pick up a three-game lead with right now the points tiebreaker on having a first round buy. And oh yeah, by the way, I I I don't want to look too far ahead to next week, but I do take on Danny. I've been calling him a by-week for a couple of weeks now and there was like a smidge a smidge of time. You probably saw it in the videos where I was a little bit nervous now about all the [ __ ] that I talked to Danny. That all went away. I mean, Danny is back to being the ultimate bye-week in this league. And it's nothing wrong with what Danny's doing. He actually made a very good trade. Unfortunately though, since that trade, he's lost Travis Hunter for likely the season. He's lost Tucker Craft for definitely the season. So now heading into our matchup next week, I'm not scared at all about Danny. Danny, as of right now, it's Monday morning, he has 56 fantasy points this week. Yeah. 56 fantasy points this week is what Danny currently has and there's only one game left to play. So I'm feeling pretty good about Danny once again being the bye-week and if that's indeed the case through 10 weeks of the season it looks like we're going to be nine and one.

>> You know S it's really interesting that you say that about Danny's team not so coincidentally a week after he makes that deal with me. And I know you're trying to, you know, say that, oh, he's not the by-week just because he made this huge blockbuster trade where he traded away two crucial starting assets in his lineup. Um, it doesn't have to do anything with that at all. It actually has to do with the fact that he lost Travis Hunter, who wasn't startable anyways, and lost Tucker Craft, but is actually replacing that with Coulson Love, but we'll just totally ignore that. Let's just keep pretending that he totally fleeced Nathan by getting Jefferson and Derrick Henry. Let's totally pretend that Derrick Henry this season is just going to produce at the same level that he has been for a decade. Let let's let's assume that even though he hasn't been able to find the end zone consistently all year and he's averaging 13 points per game, by the way, which is the same amount that Jaylen Warren is averaging right now, let's just let's just pretend that that doesn't exist. Let's just ignore the fact that JJ McCarthy is right back down to 20 to 25 passing attempts per game. Look, here's the moral of the story. When some fantasy assets try to tell you who they are for the first eight weeks of the season, believe them.

Just did some quick math here. Yeah, that's a 19 point difference. That's kind of awkward, isn't it? Definitely not the uh, you know, difference between me winning and losing this week, falling to three and six versus staying in it at four and five. Definitely the clown move of the year. Definitely the worst trade I've ever seen in my entire life. The extra 20 points, they don't matter. Screw the extra 20 points. I would rather have the cool names on my team. I would rather have Jefferson and Dererick Henry because Derrick Henry's going to the Hall of Fame. Can't Can't be making that move. You're stupid if you do it. Really really dumb.

>> I mean, I couldn't even get through the whole the whole Nathan clip. I I don't know what this guy's saying. I think he's trying to frame it as if the reason Danny is the bye-week is because the deal that he made. Nathan, I if Danny didn't have Derrick Henry and Justin Jefferson, not only will he be starting Baal Tutin and Bam Knight next week, he'd also be starting like Darius Sllayton off waiverss, right? His team is no doubt about no doubt about it better because he has those two pieces in his lineup compared to Fukua. Also saying that Ken Lovelin is just going to one for one replace Tucker Craft rest of season, not just the one game that he had when Cole KT and Huther Burton were hurt last week. No, the rest of season it's not even close. It's an obvious and massive downgrade. And I wouldn't be shocked if Coulson Lovelin is on Danny's bench in two weeks. And let's also remember here, you're saying Travis Hunter wouldn't start in a lineup that Danny is starting by shall next week and Bam Knight. I get it. After one week, Pukanua scores 22 points. Justin Jefferson only scores 16. So the fact that those guys scored comparable points after one week, Nathan wants his doo back. I mean, I was here last week. I I was trying to tell everybody that Nathan won this deal. No other deal. No other deal has been anywhere near as bad as this one. You could tell me all the great things about Puka Nakua. There is no way he's anywhere near worth what Nathan just gave up. I had his back completely and this is how he repays me by turning on me just like this. Not even a week later. What gives, Nathan?

>> Look, I'm not letting this go yet because we spent an entire dedicated video for everyone just to trash on me and walk all over me. But it's my turn now. Look, through the first week of um post making this trade, it has saved my week and it's resulted in Danny uh losing by quite a bit. Look, you you're you're going to have everybody in the flock league, everybody saying that, "Oh, Nathan, it's only one week. Oh, Nathan, I still can't believe that you traded Justin Jefferson and Derek Henry." like their name value means anything for their actual production that they are posting this season which is lackluster and resulted in me being three and five to begin with. So while S and Mason and Bush are drafting Julio Jones LT and Todd Gurley in 2025 because their name value is awesome top-notch in 2025 they'll be drafting those guys in 2025 just because of their name value.

Hey chat, uh just wanted to know again very interested in Leenian Tomlinson and what he was able to do in fantasy. Can you just real quick tell me how many points he scored in his best season?

>> Absolutely. So Leanian Tomlinson's best fantasy season was indeed that legendary 2006 season. He racked up roughly 420 PPR fantasy points. So, even though that was in 2006, it is 2025 and I honestly think if I draft him in my fantasy league this year that he could do the exact same thing. Do Do you think that he could match that production?

>> I love the enthusiasm. And hey, I wish we could just magically pull 2006 LT right into 2025, but unfortunately that's not how it works since he's long retired and definitely not in the league anymore.

>> Wait, wait. So, you're telling me that like like let's say Derrick Henry Derrick Henry right now is averaging 13 points per game in 2025. You're telling me that just because he in the past has averaged like well over 20 points per game. You're you're telling me that Derrick Henry can't do that again?

>> Exactly. You got it. So, even if a player like Derrick Henry has had those monster seasons in the past, it doesn't automatically mean he's guaranteed to hit that same level every single year.

>> Okay, happy Monday. The Mondays are real and not because you have to go back to work and because um your boss hates you. No, the Mondays are real because you could have had this matchup wrapped up yesterday in the Flock League and Bald Bowers decided to score 43 points. So now what you have on in the case of the Mondays, your chance at a repeat Flock Championship for $10,000 comes down to Javvante Williams who up until 3 months ago didn't know how to run a football. I I I almost always watch the Monday Night Game and I literally can't do this. This man traded you. Nick is bald and he traded you. Okay, it's revenge time. Javvante, please.

If y'all want to figure out what's going to happen any given week, you just got to ask yourself one simple question. What would benefit Mason Dodd the most? Because typically whatever would that's what's going to happen, right? Oh, we're going to see um Bedaki take down Cory. Oh, we are going to go ahead and we're going to see Nick, the editor, the worst team in the league, take down Avery. We're going to see Mason win. Of course, he always does. And effectively just lock up that round one buy. But I don't want to say it's luck. I I know a lot of people in the comment section, I know the other League creators will go, "Oh, Mason's so lucky. So lucky." It's not luck. What it is, is it's a little word we call destiny. You think I named my team from the very beginning of the season and haven't changed it a single week, the team of destiny as a joke? You think this is a joke to me? This is my life. This is what I put everything into. And you think I'm going to let a freaking Canadian FSE guy come out here and have any real say in what's going to happen in this league? No. They can have a say what's happening in the toilet bowl. They're for damn sure not getting a say what's happening in the real playoffs.

>> Marvin Harrison Jr. baby. Let's go.

>> Bam Williams [ __ ] block the punt. Touchdown Cowboys defense. Let's go. I can't speak too loud cuz my little one's sleeping right now. But look at the block fumble from the boys. What an absolute dig. And then the ball just flies back into the end zone. Something special is happening. I'm believing. My god. I was not expecting that. Marvin Harrison is popping off in the first quarter. 131 points to 117. Let's go. Touchdown Cowboys defense. Oh, I'm in this for Baki. Badaki three games straight back up. If y'all don't remember, Baki last year started off incredibly strong in this league and then he went on a crazy losing streak, losing pretty much every single game for like the last seven weeks of the regular season. I'm thinking Baki is flipping the script this year. I'm thinking Bodaki is actually about to make the playoffs. He is taking down every creator one by one by one of all teams to make a defensive play. The Dallas Cowboys just scored a freaking special teams touchdown against me. The one thing that I could not have happen. Thankfully Marvin Harrison Jr. is cooking. Hopefully he continues to do that. But are you kidding me? The Cowboys score a special teams touchdown. The Cowboys luckiest mother alive. Bodaki, I had you dead to rights, man. Okay, Marvin, pep talk time. You've come this far. You've scored 20 fantasy points. That's the most you've scored all season. I need I need you for another touchdown in this second half. Please, dude.

>> All right, we're at half. Javvante Williams is at 4.2 points. Let's keep him there, fellas. Let's keep him there. Ladies and gentlemen, it is officially official that I have won three in a row. I have taken down Mason. I have taken down Nathan. I have now taken down Bush. Shout out to the Dallas Cowboys defense for just coming through and just skirting alone just enough because look, Marvin Harrison had a breakout game, but the defense is the one that came through for me. Having that block punt and scoring was absolutely key. 3 and 0 in the last three weeks here. And let's change the board together, shall we, ladies and gentlemen. Oh boy. Three and six. And let me remind you of all the injuries that I have endured this year. I have a really good feeling that I may not be going to Denny's this year. But look, anything's possible. Next week I have Nick the editor and he just beat Avery. The best fantasy football players are the luckiest fantasy football players and I have the worst luck of all time. Congratulations to Nick. Um, you moved to 2 and seven. This win doesn't help you. You're not making the playoffs. It really only serves to screw me over. We go to five and four and um we go to five and five because again we don't have our team next week. So, we now are going to be at again second in points and 500 through 10 weeks of this league, just like we were last year. Again, you have to be lucky to be good at fantasy football. I'm not a lucky person. Last year, we had to take the hard way to win a championship. And this year, it's going to be the exact same thing. It sucks. I don't think I can do it again. I I think the odds are very slim that I can pull that off again. But, we're going to find out come the playoffs because I'm not going to have a buy in this league and um I'm gonna have to win three games. So fingers crossed we can win a game in the first round of the playoffs to get that 10k. Congratulations to Nick and uh I hate everything.

>> You know, I kind of like that idea that Nathan had, you know, doing the math for the trade. So I thought I would go ahead and uh I would do that as well. As you can see, uh plus seven for my side. So I don't know if you hadn't made that trade, Avery, maybe you would have won this week.

>> Well, week nine is in the books in the Flock League and unfortunately we had two major sweats on Monday Night Football. myself against bed. Marvin Harrison Jr. got it done for me with 22.6 points, but unfortunately the Cowboys special teams decided to score a touchdown and end up dropping me to a five and four record. And Zero Dark Avery coming into this game needed about 14 points from Javvante Williams. He gets only seven. So the three and the four seed in the Flock League go down with a loss, which puts the standings, I mean everybody else's matchup was decided. Nathan takes down Thomas the editor. Danny Lad falls to Sammy Stacks. Green means money. The dev team falls to S. Zack falls to Mason, of course, with Jaden Daniels and Bill not doing much on Sunday Night Football. So, looking at the league standings, we have a situation now where there is a lot of separation between Mason at 7-2, S at 8-1, and the rest of us, Avery, myself, and now Sammy at 5 and four after a big win for him. Thomas, Devs, Danny, and Nathan all sitting at a 4 and5 record. And then we have Zack down at 3-6. Bedi now up to three and six after starting 0 and6. So, he's on a three-game heater. And then Nick finally getting off the Schneider at a 2-7 record. I would say going to be an interesting ride. However, we do need to wait and see what's going to happen because this playoff race, seeds three through six, definitely wide open for the taking. Even some of these three and six teams in the running for it. Yes, I may be going bald. And yes, I may cry myself to sleep every night, but tonight I'm not crying myself to sleep. Bald boys, we are so up.
