I think it's easy for me, and it's luck for a tenth. Luck. Luck. I mean, that's just ridiculous value. It's just too good a value, and the six-point passing TD thing only helps put it over the top. In the first and the second, you're going to be, you should be able to get guys who are somewhat comparable, but you're not going to be able to get a quarterback in the 10th who will put a top two quarterback numbers. Yeah, absolutely. All right, let's take one more email. We got time for that, guys? I got nowhere to be.

54:01 ↗

All right. Well, then yes. This one comes in. I'm out of here. I love this. It comes in from Rigby. He says, howdy, gents? And Mike. No more questions. There's no, I've just. So you're sitting out this one? I'm very late. You're not a gentleman. Sorry. Quick keeper question for you. See, he says quick keeper question? And then it's like 10 pages long. 10 team, half PPR league. We all keep five players. So the draft kind of starts in the sixth round. We got a league like this.

54:31 ↗

We keep three. I need to keep five of the following. That's the gist. Just get to the list. Yeah, yeah, that's the gist. Do I keep, which of these guys? Pick five guys. Five guys? Ooh, that sounds delicious. What are you doing? We got sprinkles, cupcakes. Oh, I told you I did the three by three? Oh, the in and out three by three. I did not get a review. Oh, it's spectacular. Yes, okay. What do you, what are you saying? I was one of.

54:58 ↗

breaking news drop. Oh, I thought you were like, can we get back to the question? No. I don't want to get to this question. There's 10 people. I got to pick five of them. That's ridiculous. You know, it seems so simple. You just tripled the meat, but you tripled the cheese. That's where it puts it over the top, man. It's just like delicious. Listeners, if you haven't gone to an in and out and got the three by three, improve your life. If you're not on the West Coast, I'm sorry. We got one tweet of somebody.

55:25 ↗

Chowing down on one in our honor. Yeah, tweet us out. Do a hashtag, you know. What was that? Daniel? Yeah, yeah, Daniel did that. All right, let's get to his list. He needs to pick five of these guys. Lev Bell. There's one. Odell Beckham. There's two. Lamar Miller. Maybe. Carlos Hyde. Russell, Wilson. Travis Kelsey. Latavius Murray. Alan Robinson. Trey Mason and Zach Stacy on this list. Jack Stacy is number three because you put him on the list. No.

55:54 ↗

Lev Bell, ODB. If it's me after this point, what do you do? That's tough. I go, give me the guy who was right before Kelsey. Russell Wilson. Oh, no, before him. Hyde? Yeah, that was who it was. So here's my list. All right, let's hear it. You can answer this one. I go Levyon Bell, ODB, Lamar Miller, Travis Kelsey, Latavis Murray. So you go Murray over Hyde? Exactly. I would go Hyde over Murray.

56:22 ↗

I would go... But that same list. I would go Hyde over Murray just a little bit. Which really hurts me because I just... Yeah, I'm shocked. Yeah, I thought... I need to check my rankings on that. Maybe my rankings don't have that. I need to pull those up. We've got to do another ranking show. Yeah. But if your heart tells you to go with Hyde, then you may need to adjust your rankings. Yeah, I might. I don't know why. I think that was... That's really close to me. They're probably back-to-back in my ranking, so...

56:51 ↗

All right, don't forget, if you want to email us your question, we're happy to answer them on this show. Sometimes we'll agree, sometimes we won't, but we'll give you perspective no matter what. Mail at the fantasy footballers.com. If you want to do a mock draft, check out fantasy draftwizard.com. You can do those for free on there. And don't forget, if you're signing up for Fanduel, where you have a partnership with Fanduel, you can put in the promo code, ballers. That's ballers with a B. Yeah.

57:18 ↗

And you can get up to, what, double your... You put in ballers, fan duel gives you $200. Whoa. Whoa. I like that rhymes and is awesome. Also, fan duels a blast for any baseball fan out there. That's what you can play right now, but... Do we want to talk about the league? Oh, you know what? We do. Because there's... Are we ready to announce the person who got in? Yeah, we can do that. We can announce which one? The Scottish friend? No, so I get two. Okay, so two people have been...

57:47 ↗

Two people have been selected. Two people have been selected. We've gotten tons of entries, people who want to be in the league, and those are all, we're not deleting those. We're not replying to them all, but they're all going into a box, and we're going to look through those and pick some more guys. But when people ask me, because I've had quite a few people tweeting, I want in the league, what do I got to do? And I say, well, all I can tell you is keep listening and be creative. And they're like, be creative. And somebody showed us what that,

58:17 ↗

means, because when we say be creative, we don't know exactly what we're looking for until we see it. And we saw it. Someone created a fan page in my honor to tout up how I am indeed Chipotle's number one fan and the Seattle, it besmirched the name of the Seahawk draft pick who thought he was Chipotle's number one fan, but I am. Chipotle right.

58:45 ↗

Yeah, is that what it was? That's what it is. Facebook.com. Go like it. Just get some more right. So you're in the league there. That's Jonathan T. Jonathan T is in the league. Congratulations. Yes. The other listener in the league. That's my favorite. So we've actually answered questions on the air from him before. I only remember that because he's from Scotland. And I'm assuming we don't have too many people in Scotland that we are answering questions for. Paul M. Paul M.

59:12 ↗

Doctor, soon to be Dr. Paul M. And the coolest part, he's in Scotland, and he is getting a doctorate in fantasy football, basically. I want to read his, can I read his thesis title? It's a little long, but it's awesome. This thesis.

59:29 ↗

An exploration into fantasy football participation in the UK examining the role of plays in forming attitudes and opinions of American football in order to understand its importance in terms of consumer behavior with particular focus on the consumption of the NFL and associated products and services. He is writing a dissertation. That's a PhD. Paul for NFL commissioner. Let's get that going. Yeah, he also included a picture of himself presenting his research poster in Scotland. But Paul.

59:56 ↗

That's what we're talking about. Welcome to the league, buddy. Doctor football. This is how you get in. A doctorate. You read a doctorate on fantasy football. Being Scotland. Be creative, and you will be rewarded. Yeah, so we've got two guys in the league. We got room for 10, nine more. Nine more. Nine more. Or because we're doing one team. We're going to be on one team together. Okay. So us three are going to have to find a way to draft Jeremy Macklin.

60:22 ↗

No, not. I was going to say, so Latavius Murray is not on this team, right? Look, we'll figure it out, okay? We'll figure it out. We're going to have the worst team because it's just going to auto pick. We're going to run out of time on every single time. Because we're all debating with each other. And we'll have 10 kickers. Oh, wow. That'll be good for everybody else. So Paul, Jonathan, welcome to the league. And we'll pick one or two here and there. If something blows us away on the way to fantasy draft season, it'll be fun. A lot of fun, so.

60:51 ↗

Anything else you guys want to talk about? Nope. All right. We got some, what are we doing on the next show? We're going to talk some guys that we're falling on. Yeah. Falling on.

61:02 ↗

No, guys that are falling down our draft boards a little bit. Stock. Yeah, the opposite of today. I didn't get to talk about Brandon Cooks and Marcus Colston today. Oops. But those are two guys that go on my own personal board. We should just put them on the fallers list then. Yeah, next show. No, no, no, no. So, all right, that's it for us today. Thank you for listening to the fantasy footballers. I'm starving. Go get yourself a three-by-three horse. I've got to do it right now. Our show is more about food now than it is. That's great.
