Welcome to the Fantasy Throwdown Podcast.

Bringing you the latest from the world of sports, DFS, and gambling.

With over five years of hot takes and millions of downloads later,

I guess he's been doing something right.

Now, sit back and listen to one of the sharpest minds in the game.

Here's your host, Dwayne Calendar.

Okay, folks, we're jumping in with an emergency episode of the show because of how

ludicrous this story is.

But breaking news, Bill Belichick does not make the pro football Hall of Fame as a first ballot,

which, again, might be the most insane thing ever, except for the fact that I honestly think

this was a hit job by Robert Kraft because there's no logical reason to hold out Bill Belichick from the Pro Football Hall of Fame unless you're holding him out forever because of SpyGate, which you have to disqualify him for SpyGate, which again is not part of voting criteria.

So what are we what are we doing here?

It's like, he fell short by 11 votes to get into the Hall of Fame.

Not one, not two, not three, 11 votes short, which means it was a concerted effort,

not, oh, this was a misunderstanding, a mistake,

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

He deliberately got left off by the Hall of Fame voting.

So we're going to bring my dad out here because, like, we got to talk to this some more,

but this is absolutely absurd.

But, and again, I was talking about this before, lost in all this, is the fact that Eli Manning is also not going to the Hall of Fame this year

in his second year on the ballot.

Still not on the ballot.
