Best Show Moments - Fantasy Footballers Highlights from 2023

What's going on everybody? Andy from the fantasy footballers with a very special video for you today. We got the Labor Day weekend, but we didn't want to leave you empty-handed. So we've got a highlight video from 2023. All the best moments of the show is you get ready for the upcoming 2024 kickoff. Enjoy. Dallas 5 and 2, Philly 7-1. Here we go. I want this game. You want? I want this game. I want this game to happen. I want this game to happen. It was a little creeper from behind the bushes with some binoculars out. Oh, yeah, for sure. Is that Dallas, Philly? Ooh, I want it. It's so gross. So gross. Give it to me. Give me this game. A game perv. Game purve. Goodness gracious. Can we not go down this train?

Can we not know? No, no, no, you don't have permission to sound that way, just because we contextualize it to the game. No, no, Brooks. Shut the mic off. Jason's so into this game, though. Pooka, I think, is going to be a big benefit. Puka's a bit cheaper than Cooper Cup. Yeah. Yeah, he is. What? Yeah, no, don't worry about it. Yeah, Puka is that. Yeah, yeah, she's a little. Yeah, don't work. Did I not say cheaper? No, you said that. You said that. You said that word. You said that bit before it came across. A little bit. Yeah, little bit. He's a little bit cheaper. A little bit cheaper. I see. I see there could be a run on words there. Yes. It was very good because that's all I heard. And my personal favorite Brett ripping farts. I just want.

All credit to be given to Brett Rippin' Farts. When you're watching your body, how many places of your body do you actually watch? I'm going chest pits. Private area. Private area above the thighs. Like, that's what I'm saying. I clean above the thighs. How often did I touch below the thighs? That's just like, do you do your feet? Do you actually get to reach down? I believe I'm standing in a lot of soap. I mean, that's the foundation of a shower. I have not washed. They're just soaking. I have washed my feet probably once in the last year. It's pits and privates, my friends. Yeah. That's the, it's pits and privates. Those are the, that's the priorities. Everything else is just a bonus if I got extra time. If I'm in a shower, it's pits and privates, man. And you, you're like, whoa, do I got to pretend like I thoroughly scrub down to my feet? Like, no, no, we don't. Since we're just being candid, I would say once every couple of months for no reason at all.

I will step out of the shower water and do a full body latherer as though it's like a reset like a full clean. Oh, okay. Because I feel like. A detail. It's once a month. Yeah. I do a full detail. You know detail every time you watch, sometimes you just wash the car. Just take it through the while. Doesn't need it. It was detailed two months ago. Yeah. But every now and then you need it. Every once in a while, I'm just like, I'm going to step out of the water and I feel like I need to let it soak in. I guess we're being honest here. Yes. What do we got? So I do wash my legs every shower, but it is the laziest thing you have ever. I'm talking fresh, fresh body wash on, and I just, I quickly reached down and just go, yep, yep, that's it. Just to say check the box? I don't know. I guess I'm.

thinking, eh, it'll do something. Oh, welcome in. Meg, good love, on time. Nope. Nope. And it undue. I knew it couldn't be football time because it's not actually football time. I know I pointed at you right when you were starting. Yeah. And I was thinking it's football time because it's like, it's all wrapped up. And then you, you graded your own in the middle of it. I'm a harsh critic. Of myself, guys. Meg, I led to dawn time. Nope. And that was, that was a hard no. Look, Arthur. I know we've coined him the butthole, but I hate to, I hate to. Oh, no. Don't you dare. No. But I kind of like some of his logic sometimes and I'm seeing good things. Oh, man. No. I feel like. He's a, he's an Arthur sympathizing. Maybe it's like Loki or like the Scarlet Witch. He's a bad. He's a bad guy.

But he could do some good, you know, like, maybe he's... Oh, no. Look, I mean, if he gives... If the Sith take over the universe, it'll be pretty good. But why don't we just kick the show off with one of our favorite segments? I was ready for Monday, Punday. Oh, man. And you hit me with a Bijon minute drop. You hit me with a Bijon from your playoffs drop. Dude. Oh, man. Revenge of the Sith. Holy moly. Arthur Smith, you suck. Arthur Smith, you suck. I'm so happy you lost that game. I hope you lose your job. You have some different opinion? Number two. Remember when you were like, uh, yeah, Arthur's like, oh, Loki's not a bad guy. We got like a whole super cut of you singing praises of Arthur Smith. You lost Carolina.

You fell right into his trap. I sure did, man. He waited for week one of the playoffs. You think he doesn't know its playoffs and fantasy football? 100% he does. 1,000%. I know we're talking on the podcast, so this is embarrassing, but like, is a swan, that's the same animal as a goose, right? No, no, they're different. Is a swan its own thing? Okay, so I will say this. A swan's its own thing? It is. So if a lake is filled, there'd be ducks, there'd be swans, there'd be geese? Yeah. That's possible. For some reason, I thought maybe a swan was just a real pretty goose. When I said it, because of the ugly duckling. I was waiting for someone to be like, dude. Yeah, you were, right? Dude, that's the same animal. I'm looking at a photo, swan versus goose. They are totally different. Just unbelievably different. But let me tell you, one is ugly. One is a beautiful. There are many differences between geese and swans. Yeah, you're right about the whole neck, man. A goose is...

I mean, the wing. You'd rather have the longer neck, right? Like if you're choosing what you want to be. You want the beauty of the swan. You want the massive 10-foot wingspan. You don't want a wingspan of geese that's generally between three and four feet. You are so knowledgeable there. Oh, man. Viking. Did I see Viking? Where is he? Alvin? Alvin. Wait, is that Alvin and the chipmots? They're looking good. Nice. How do you think? What do you think? I think I look good like this. Yeah, I mean, you definitely, you looked apart, but how to try the voice again. Try the voice. Oh, okay. Oh, no. Okay. All right. Well, enjoy this. Oh. That's pretty clever. Wait, wait. Let me talk about it. You want that game? I want that game. Oh, no. All right. Let's.

do the show. Oh, welcome in. Happy Halloween, everybody. Got some regrets. Taylor here. Oh, baby. Hanging out with Fat Thor and Ken. Yeah. Oh, Taylor Swift, Fat Thor and Ken. Taylor, you're on the map. Jason Moores, ironclad, locked and loaded, 100% guaranteed boom boom kicker of the week. Last week on the boom boom kicker. I'm Merry Christmas to the Notties with a lump of poop. At years end, I need a long nap to take a full boom boom victory lap and retire from these kicking suckers.

So I waddled into their kicking HQ and clogged all their toilets with doodoo. Sayonara to the Ravens Justin Tucker. I'm done. That's it. That's the retirement. That's it. That's what I thought. No more stupid boobo. All right. The boom boom, boom. It's gone. The boom boom turned into the poo poo. Yeah. There's a lot of doo-doo. We'll find you a segment you don't want to do. Yeah, that's true. Be careful. Careful what you wish for. Oh, no. Guys in their age 31 season, Emmanuel Sanders was top 20 in points per game. Julio, of course, and... And me, Jason. Adam Thielan, when I was a young spry 31, I was the wide receiver 16. Do you remember those days? The good old days. I wish I could go back in my old time machine. Last year, Hopkins averaged nearly 11 targets per game. He's so much younger than you.

He's so much younger than you, Mike. Not in my heart. And for the first time this season. Oh, is it Javante time? Fresh off. No! You are trying me insane. You are trying me. I'm going to kill you. I can't believe. I'm like, I was on. Mike just have the clock and I'm like, oh good. And he's taking his quarterback. So I get Javante. I need him because he took Miles Sanders and I was left with Cameron. I need another shot. So Javante was all that was left. Oh, man. Oh, and then you hear me say, I'm going to flip this table over. First you hear me say I'm going to keep kicking the quarterback down the line. Jason might end up with him because. Holy Toledo he did. So let me explain the grunts and screams.

I took Gibbs, Metcalf, Lamar, Naji, and then... I'm one pick away. Jason's my guy, Mark Andrews. Mark Andrews almost fell to the 3-11. That's why I love him. Drake London, Jerry Judy, Christian Watson, Chris Godwin, Jason back on the clock. He just grunted again. Yeah, I really... Who'd you want? I wanted Chris Godwin. And Dak, Ingram, and Joku, and Javante off the board before Jason's pick. I mean, this is like... Stupid team 10. I don't like you. I'm looking at my roster and I like Johan Dotson. I like Jordan Addison a lot. And I like James Cook. So I'm going to play the ADP game here and try to get two of those three players. I'm going to take James Cook first. So that will add him to Sequin and Ramandre Stevens. Are you for me? John Dotson goes next. So you got sandwiched. Cook and then Dotson and Addison. So you're my guy.

kidding. I wanted Dotson or Addison. This is amazing. That's all I wanted. I'm like, oh, there's two of them. And, and Dotson was really low in ADP. So I took Cook to make sure I was safe. And then both, not one, both. This is ridiculous. This is beautiful. Did you have something you were going to say, Al? I was just going to say before we get too far ahead of ourselves, you guys had made a promise that we need to make good on. Oh, what did we do? Oh, man. This is not good. The fantasy footballers podcast. What was that? Is that a new musical? It's the podcast. Yeah, a lot of people don't realize this. This is show 1491. We are nine episodes away from show 1500. And that will be fantasy footballers, the music.

Welcome everybody, yes, we've made it here, it's true. And so we're celebrating with a musical review. 1,500 episodes of the fantasy footballers show. Our fans, the foot plan, we owe it all to them. Hey! Loving Michael Keaton and our dinner butter trend. And there's plenty more to go with Andy's voice-cracking intro in a world of football fantasy. Crying when we see our wives With the deucers in deucers alley Hitting that Now Andy, Mike and Jason Everybody Places Please The audience is waiting for this very special treat Raise the curtain now let's go It's our 1500 show Andy Mike and Jason on the ballon It's football time Oh my

goodness that was that was something awesome that's a pretty exhaustive list we've got a couple more names on the website if you go look at the fantasy football rankings of the waiver rankings on fancy footballers.com no no no yeah no so uh fantasy footballer you're gonna need an incogweed window for for those um oh Jason Jason Jason The rankings. It's starting. I think you were trying to say the fancy footballers.com. Then you said the fancy football rankings, but you like bailed out of that. Yeah. And then you fell apart. And then you turned into a dirty old man. A double you showed up out of nowhere. Yeah. That I don't want to be a part of those rankings. Yeah. You could check out my personal rankings. No, please. You never heard that before, Brooks? No, I hadn't heard that. He just asked me if I said, he said, did you just say turtle up? Yeah.

Yeah, you never heard of turtling? Yeah, I guess not. Hide in your show. Where do you think, what do you think that originated, that concept? Turtling. Of turtling? Yeah, from the animal. Yeah, I think it originated with the turtle. Yeah. The animal, it has a protective armor. And so you see when it goes, it's like kind of go in. And then it's like, oh, he's protected. Oh, he's turtling. He's turtling up. That's my, we haven't looked this up. Did you look this up? A turtle can turtle. A turtle can turtle. No, I didn't. I did not confirm. I didn't either. I'm on it. I'm on it. No, you don't need to look it up. It's the turtle. Turtling. Thank you. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And that's actually, it's from turtle.com. Turtling up to go on the defensive. Yeah, that's what we're talking about. Yeah. For some reason, I feel like that language has been used a lot in, like.

RTS video games and stuff like that. You're saying who? That is, yeah, I wasn't asking what a turtle is. You guys thought I said, what's a turtle? And then you told me what a turtle was. Yeah, I mean, I know it from, from video games. But apparently, I mean, that's been a thing for like warfare for a long time. Yeah, makes sense. From the turtle. Yes. We look to nature. Look, the master of combat. I'm looking at. Etymology one is. from turtle so yeah that's the that's the it's official we got it all of our waivers were going through immediate like when the button was pushed to start the show but the highlight of the waiver wire in all of our leagues without question just leave the building jason because the highlight was jason more you know him as the big shimmy

Jason Moore is the winner of the Zach Moss sweepstakes. Congratulations. Give me a crowd. Give me, give me them claps. Oh, let me find that. Give me them claps. I don't know how dare you. Oh, congratulations Jason. What did I do? And you know that means he's playing Zach Moss? Yes. Oh, man. Yes, it's the greatest day. I'm going to cut them right now. I'm going to burn all 15 when I saw that. I grossly overpaid for the guy who sucks, who I can't stand. I hate. I think he is not good at football and will be worthless. He is now on my League of Record roster. And I guess an announcement this morning. Ooh, a really important one. Jason no longer has no longer has Zach Moss on his team. I have atoned for my sins of picking up Zach Moss on waivers for 15 fab. I felt disgusting. I regretted it from the moment it happened.

And so I woke up this morning and I went to our league chat and I said, someone take him from me, please. And I got a couple of offers for $1 of fab. Got an offer for $4 a fab. Nice. And then Mr. Andrew Holloway, we made a pick swap in my favorite late round, late round pick swap and $4 a fab. Yeah. And that was enough. Get off my team, Zach Moss. Get off. Get off. Get on. Get on Andy's team. You could go start. You'd be great. you can be great. Oh, that'll be the next step in this journey. Zach Moss played, I believe, 98% of snaps, 18 for 88 and a touchdown. Four targets. Mike started the week. Zach Moss, he did what we hoped he would do. Everyone on my timeline just wants to know. They just want to know how I feel. And I feel great.

I feel so great. Well, he did not turn out to be the difference between a win or a loss for you, which he very well could have. He is absolutely going to receive a ton of work. It's going to be a very Rashad White situation. Now, obviously this last week, I traded him. I'm happy he's not on my team. He's not talented, but he was good. I mean, it doesn't matter because there's just one workhorse in the building. I can't wait. I can't wait to tell everyone how great Zach Moss is, how well he's been playing and how I have.

completely. I don't want you to. Exactly. I want you to stay right where you at. Oh, he's great, guys. And he's going to be. Oh, now he's trying to reverse engineer. Zach Moss to disaster. He has looked really good. That's not even a joke. He has made nice receptions. Yeah, that touchdown catch was special. There were plays where he was I don't know if it's the bit still. I can't tell. There were plays where he should have been tackled four yards behind the line of scrimmage. He got to four positive yards. He has looked really good. And I was so super wrong about him being an average player. Okay. All right. And going forward, you know, I'm happy. I'm just going to eat those words. Zach Moss looks.

I'm freaking believable. I mean, like, we're watching this together, and I'm just eating my words over and over and over. He's the best running back of all time. And you know who's back this week? Marshawn Latimer. Wait, he back? Is that? When is that? A day ago was reported that Michael Thomas and Marshawn Latimore are expected to return against the bucks. We've seen all reports that he is 100% out. We looked on Monday. Lattimore, maybe you read it wrong because Lattimore and Thomas are not expected to return against the Buccaneers according to the reports I'm reading. That is exactly the word. It's not. I read that report. Say guess who's not bad. Can you re-say it? Say it again. I like Mike Evans this week because the Evans killer, Marshawn Lattimore, not expected to be back. I mean, it's a very important word in the sentence. It's three letters, Mike. I got three letters wrong.

I mean, it's not. And there was a bunch of other letters that got right. I got like percentage wise of that sentence was like 97% correct. I mean, cut me some slack. Three letters. Honestly, we thought you were breaking crazy news because Mike and I were looking that early. Yeah, it's pretty important. There's, there's some crap that happened. You and you alone. coordinate a three-team trait between you and Papa Josh and Al Borland. But Papa Josh and Jeremy, they liked what you came up with in the other players in the deal. And so they took your deal without you carving you out. And you were not happy. You are not happy. It was so uncomfortable.

as fate would have it in most perfect form, Josh the Betrayer and my League of Record team are now meeting in the semifinals. One of you will be in the championship. One of you will not at the expense of the other. And you have created a wonderful stack for him in Justin Fields and DJ Moore playing against the Arizona Cardinals this week. So we'll see if evil wins. I'm not one to troll, but. Yeah, you're above it. But if my opponent whose name was the grumpy old trolls, Papa Josh himself on this buildup, like I feel like it would be kind of disrespectful to somebody whose name is the trolls, not to at least reflect. Give them what they deserve and enjoy. So, I mean, we did invite Josh for a moment to come into the studio if you want to take a look over there at Deucer's Alley for those watching. Wait, does he have a gift?

I did get, I did prepare him a gift and in a nice like a. Oh, nice loser frame. And there's a frame we built for him here on YouTube. Now, Josh, while you're over there, if you want to just open up your gift. And the box is a nice peppermint. Yeah. I mean, it's a beautiful box. It is. I'm just, if you just want to open it up here, I'll give you a play by play. I hope it's a turd. Now what's the first thing you find in there? What do you got? What are you guys? It's a picture of Amari Cooper. Oh, man. Oh, my goodness. Oh, there's more? What else is in there, Josh? Oh, oh, it's the return to sender. Oh, it's everything you sent me all week long, including. I need this one. The book. The book Healing after loss. We'll just keep some stuff up on the screen here during the show.

Oh, man. I'm telling you this right now, Andrew Holloway. Oh. If you now have done all this and you don't win the championship this week, shame on you. Happy to report that after defeating the evil one, Josh, I did finish the job, took care of business. That is great. That is great news. Jason graciously handed me the trophy that he had won last year, which I received and then embraced and then, well, we won't. Talk about anything else. Yeah, because it's private times. Thank you, everybody. Thank you so much, everyone. We'll see you tomorrow. Goodbye. Thank you for listening to another episode of the Fantasy Footballers podcast.
