Episode 72: Breaking the Game - Monopoly

Sponsored by the Fan Controlled Football League
Host Greg Smith (@gregsauce) flies solo on this episode of the podcast, revisiting his Breaking the Game article from a couple years ago (linked below). In that article, he compared the basic game of Tic-Tac-Toe to fantasy football, and this time around he's looking at the classic board game of Monopoly. What can the mean, two-dimensional streets of Atlantic City teach us about fantasy strategy? Lace up that old boot, grab your wheelbarrow, and listen in to find out.

Episode 123: Rotosauce Football - The 2QBXP Podcast Returns with Sal Stefanile
Hosted by Greg Smith (@gregsauce)
Greg is joined by Salvatore Stefanile (@2QBFFB) to reignite the 2QB Experience podcast and address the state of the two-quarterback fantasy football universe. They start with some general thoughts about how to approach 2QB and Superflex waiver wires when there are so many new starters available in the wake of injuries and benchings to Nick Foles, Drew Brees, Ben Roethlisberger, Sam Darnold, Eli Manning, and Cam Newton. Then they speculate about which current starters could potentially lose their jobs later this season. Next, Sal profiles Gardner Minshew for fantasy (while wondering how he might look in a No Fear T-shirt), and that kicks off an attempt to rank all the new NFL starters for the rest of this season. Greg makes the case for Mason Rudolph, Sal makes the case for Taysom Hill, then both your hosts wonder if the startability and upside of Daniel Jones are being slept on by the fantasy community at large. The show winds down with a couple listener questions from Twitter and a bit of non-football nonsense, including some #taeks on Hollywood's obsession with remakes, reboots, and sequels.
