32. The Competitive Spirit Clause

32. The Competitive Spirit Clause

In this episode we talk about how this episode is completely backwards (warning: very wonkish episode), Swag’s need for coffee, GK thinks Tim is a genius, the wetness of Tim and J-Lo’s teams, building for the future, teams windows, playing to win, psychological warfare, clarification of Swag’s interest in the league this year, a career year in 7 games for Jed, J-Lo missed a trade, GK’s hatred of poor Manuel, Swag goes all in….wait…no he doesn’t, J-Lo Sith, unwritten rules (again!…Yes, but it leads to something interesting….wait for it…wait for it…), the extended discussion about state control and the Competitive Spirit Clause (or alternatively, GK suddenly falls in love with the thoughts of Friedrich Hayek), Tim complains about the commissioner’s job, and oh yeah, we run through the scores this week.

31. The Cream Cheese Incident

31. The Cream Cheese Incident

In this episode we talk about the fact that the games actually matter(!), Swag quits on this season on day three, Gregg does too, everyone hates the long week, losing to win as a strategy, Joe isn’t happy with Bellinger, why Scottie my be the first to have the competitive clause thrown at him, establishing the dreamer award, Gabe Kapler is an odd bird and he’s messing up fantasy baseball, genius or bum?, vacation on a balcony, the great cream cheese shortage of 2018, winning for the cause of justice, drunk eating, why Gregg was bummed out, but then remembers the best selfie of all time, the strangeness around the Villages, we discuss the big philosophical questions of our time (we are not afraid), getting hit on by senior citizens, Gregg’s tardy predictions, using a mallet, attempts to hex Tim’s team, everybody loves Chris’ team except Swag, Blaze’s book report subject, and a very bad joke done in poor taste...
