This or That (Comparisons) [24:36]

Hey there, football fans! In Season 04 Episode 2, we dive into all things rookies and the exciting world of the NFL. Milton, your friendly neighborhood veteran, is here, a bit out of shape like a certain famous player. But fear not, because Vivian, the Queen of Fantasy Football wisdom, is here to save the day with her epic crash course!

That's right, american football locos out there. 2023 NFL is back, and with it, the greatest sport of all: FANTASY FOOTBALL. And we got you covered because that's what we do 👊. So today we'll dip our toes in the most recent depth charts, and see what's hot and what's not!

The Big Game is upon us, then again, I’m sure many are not excited about it at all, like fantasy superstar, CMC who openly said he hopes both teams lose 😆. With a game that could have been Milton's Bengals against Vivian's Niners, your hosts here have a similar feeling. So we've brought our resident superfans, Janelle Navrat of KC [44:30], and Ben Surkin of Philadelphia [54:20] to pump us up and get us excited, and maybe have us have some sort of rooting interest! But, before that, we have Vivian's Coach Tracker [01:34], some Free Agency news [16:05], Pro-Bowl talk [20:37], and our SB prop bets [24:12]! 

And be sure not to miss Vivian's rant about the Philadelphia fans [25:50] 👌

It's a black, sad Tuesday for both of your hosts. But just like the Niner's playing a whole game instead of just conceding it—because well . . . they are pros—so are we, showing up to talk about what went down this weekend between the 49ers vs. Eagles [02:00] and the Bengals vs. Chiefs [08:25], as painful as it might be. Then Vivian takes us through her Coach Tracker [19:40] and then gives us a glance at what the free agency is gonna look like [33:22]. We wrap it up with our breakdown of the 1st ever Professional Flag Football game 🤩 [38:00]. Heck, we might organize a Media.Monks flag football game, so stay tuned for that!!!

So yeah, Fantasy Football season is in the books now and all our winners are getting their rings tailored and polished. Still, we are already getting all geared up for next season, and even the most minuscule detail—coach position, GM, etc—has an impact on the performance of a player, so Vivian is keeping an eye out there for us with some deep dive into all the available coaching positions! Then, Milton's Bengals and Vivian's Niners are again in the Championship Game, and we kind of go over the games trying to tiptoe through them and avoid any jinxing 🙈!

Damar Hamlin’s Week 17 injury rocked the NFL and fantasy football world and we are glad he’s now officially home, and we wish him a speedy recovery.
