Well, have fun with that. Maybe it pays off immediately with an injury to David Johnson, but probably not. Where a handcuff becomes more important is as time goes on as you move forward in your season and you're looking towards the playoffs. If once I have locked up or I feel like I'm very close to a playoff spot, then I will start acquiring my handcuffs and I will do it for my top two running backs if I know.

Inside the episode
103 passagesIt's a situation where that handcuff will come in and immediately take the bulk of the carries. It's not just a I have this guy who will now be in a timeshare situation. Yeah, and also I would just say this. He says he's in a 10-team league. In a 10-team league, it's going to be the need for a handcuff is.
much, much smaller. There's just fewer players that are starting, and that says that there are better players that I would rather have on my roster that I could plug and play than have my roster filled up with a handcuff that is pretty much a zero or a two fantasy points a week, unless an injury happens. I'd rather go, you know, and play the waiver wire right when I need that guy, and or have other teams fill their benches with zeros.
All right, this is a very important question from Alex. He says he's in the doghouse and he needs Mike's help. There's only one way out of the dog house. Talk to the big dog. All right. Here we go. He loves the show. He got his first hashtag Footland title last year and he made money on Daily Fantasy after listening to the show. Uh-oh, this is trouble. He said, Mike, I just won my first auction at pristine auction. He loves their site and his wife just found out he paid a pretty sum.
A pretty good sum for a signed Steve Smith, Utah Ute helmet. Ooh. How can I buy all this amazing gear and keep my wife happy, Mike? All right. How do you do this? Because we don't know how you keep buying stuff. So here is my number one tip. Maybe this applies to your spouse. I don't know. My spouse loves Target.
and uh as i don't know if you have a someone in your life who likes target but i love target but oh i love target too but here's how target works i got them blueberry or you're like hey i'm going to go to target i'm going to grab a shirt a hundred and fifty dollars later i'm leaving target yeah so you just not just a shirt right so uh the way it works is uh and now instead of like i am going to target it's
Well, we got, okay, be careful with the target. You know, let's watch the budget, watch the spending. It's, oh, okay, have fun. So it's the permission. If she has permission to spend, you get permission to spend. You're done right. So it's a bribe. So Mike's answer is, make more money. Yeah. Well, it's when you, when you can't afford your mortgage, you know why. Right. But at least your wife will like it. Hopefully, you know, we can win you some money back on some.
