To me, the whole thing with the finger under between the legs,

0:10.8

antiquated, archaicator, and weird.

0:13.4

The whole thing is freaking silly.

0:15.4

It's Felger and Mass.

Presented by Draft King Sportsbook on 985, The Sports Hub.

0:20.6

The Sports Hub. My final hour, Felgray, we're picking through the minutia of the active roster versus the practice squad, if you care.

0:53.7

It's not just going to give it a popsicle headache, but as Maz has figured out, the new rules say

1:00.0

that you can elevate a player from the practice squad onto the game day roster three times

1:05.0

without having to put him on the 53.

1:09.0

Okay?

1:09.6

So you don't, I guess I just told me this a second ago. So I'll assume it's true. And I'm just reading text. Is this just quarterback or any position? No, I think it's any position. So it's sort of like bypassing the 53 man roster. Basically. So in, in other words, yeah, Bill's playing chess. I'm sure everyone does this. I'm sure the Patriots did this last year and we didn't pay attention to it. Because why would I pay effing attention to the 54th, 55th, 56th guy on the team? I don't give a rat's ass about that guy. Me neither. And we pride ourselves and not talking about that effing guy. Correct. Whoever he is. I'm just in the two chair.

1:44.9

Except in this case, it might be Bailey Zappy, right?

1:48.1

That's how you, that's how you warm your way around.

1:50.8

And that's another thing I said.

1:52.4

I don't know what the rules are.

1:54.1

I don't really care what the rules are.

1:56.5

But something tells me, Zappy to the practice squad is bill using some rule or loophole or thing. And it wouldn't surprise me one bit if that's what that is. And so that's what that is. And he's not, it sounds like he's cheating or anything. This is what teams do. You can take a guy from the practice squad and play him on Sunday three times without him counting on the 53 man roster.

2:18.2

Is that what you're telling me? Basically. So that's how they bridge it these first couple weeks until they fully get the corral kit up to speed and then Bailey Zappi's back on the practice squad or gone or whatever he's out. Right. See, I think the end result though is still the same. And that to me is sort of where I end up. the initial thing of putting Bailey Zappy on waivers

2:37.2

was to get out though is still the same and that to me is sort of where I end up the initial thing of

2:35.3

putting Bailey Zappy on waivers was to get rid of him he's out yeah it it wasn't just a

2:41.5

roster ploy it wasn't just a maneuver I mean look they'll take advantage of it for a couple
