| 0:00.0 | Rap back where you at? |
| 0:14.7 | Hey, what's going on? |
| 0:17.2 | It's Friday, December 5th week 14 officially underway. I'm Jeff. This is the rant. How about that last night? Jamir Gibbs, hopefully you're not facing him like I am in a league. Well, I'm down, but I'm not out, baby. I had Jake Bates. This is the only league I have a kicker. It's a home league. Jake Bates putting up some major numbers. I think it was like 16 points in that league. |
| 0:38.8 | I'll get off to that good start. See if we can make up ground on Jemir Gibbs. Good luck to me. |
| 0:43.8 | But I do have Jonathan Taylor going in a big spot. Enough about me. Let's talk about you. |
| 0:49.4 | You may have some start sit dilemmas. You may have some questions heading into this weekend's action. |
| 0:55.3 | And I often get to this point of the year and I do a very similar bit each year, but it helps |
| 1:01.6 | just as a friendly reminder. If you have a close start sit decision, you can't make it on a Friday. |
| 1:07.9 | You certainly can't make it on like a Wednesday or a Tuesday, but you can't |
| 1:11.0 | make it on a Friday. There's still a lot of information that's going to come in the next couple days. |
| 1:16.1 | I mean, heck, look at somebody like Amari and Hampton. We have no idea if he's actually going to play this week. |
| 1:23.1 | We don't know. We don't know if he's going to play this week. That's the challenge because he went |
| 1:29.2 | limited in in practice yesterday. But by Sunday, we're going to have a pretty darn good sense of |
| 1:34.2 | whether or not he's playing based on what happens in the next two days. We get a practice report |
| 1:39.5 | today. We see if he's practicing in full and if he isn't, then we wait until Saturday. And then if he |
| 1:45.5 | isn't from there, I highly doubt he's activated. But if he goes full, he could be activated. Heck, |
| 1:50.3 | you can go full and maybe not be activated. There are a number of situations like that that no |
| 1:56.0 | matter what we do on a Friday, we just can't answer the question. So if you have something close, |
| 2:01.3 | wait until you get all the information. Nothing is going to be that impactful. Like you don't have |
| 2:05.8 | to make the decision today for your fantasy squad to do well. But then, you know, there are other |
| 2:11.8 | things that happen at this time of year as well. Maybe you have a decision that isn't actually that |
| 2:16.4 | close. And I've seen this with a lot of guys |
