Fantasy Throwdown Podcast

We recap as dominant of a performance on one side of the football you will see by a defense and how the Patriots were lucky to not get blown out by more.

My thoughts on how the game is likely to play out and the best pathways to victory for both teams. Also, I discuss the DFS options folks should be looking at more closely.

Today we discuss the aftermath of another Bills playoff blunder plus explore the bizarre conclusion to the Africa Cup of Nations finale.

What a terrible Sunday of games ahead. My strongest recommendation to avoid any heavy action if you can help it.

I talk about the Jake Paul Debacle from Friday night before diving into an ugly Sunday slate of NFL games

We dive into a busy Week 9 but the fantasy focus should be away from the Bills Chiefs game in my opinion this week.

This is an early game heavy slate as the NFL wants the spotlight on the Chiefs Eagles rematch that I have a strong take on when we get there.

My father and I dive into the rest of Week 1 of the NFL season and some of our favorite spots to target this week.

I provide my thoughts on where folks are making the biggest missteps in the draft prep process, what to look out for during your drafts, as well as my high caution areas within the draft.

I give my thoughts on a live draft as it happens and how you can pivot at different stages of the draft.

I give my thoughts on the opening weekend of the Premier League and what stood out to me thus far.

We dissect the East and Midwest regions and how you can differentiate your bracket based on your pool format.

We take a look at the West region where I have a pretty definitive opinion of Florida as well as where they rank vs the top seeds in that region including St. John's.

We start our bracket breakdown with the South region and overall #1 seed Auburn.

I give my thoughts on what questions you should be asking heading into your March Madness pools and how to approach strategy for various formats.

Today we cover the NHL and Premier League since I didn't get to touch on those subjects yesterday with my remainder of the season outlook.

As we head into St. Patrick's Day and the beginning of March Madness I catch up on the sports that I will be pushing to the side for the next three weeks (and yes Mavs fans we will be talking about the sad state of your team).

My thoughts on the DFS slate how we should approach the roster construction on Draftkings and Fanduel

I give my thoughts ahead of the big game while my father and I debate what to expect out of the Chiefs and Eagles.

First I recap the 48 hour fiasco of Canelo breaking off and creating multiple matches before making up his mind on his next round of boxing matches. Next, I give my thoughts on the remaining moves of a tumultuous NBA trade deadline with the winners and losers of the Western Conference. I cap off the hour with my predictions for the UFC 312 PPV tonight.

There are so many layers to this Luka Doncic trade to the Lakers that nobody is talking about that I decided to give my thoughts on the likely real reason why this move was made and the fact that it was concentrated around the Lakers and nowhere else in the league.

Late night as my father and I break down the conference title games and our biggest takeaways.

I give my thoughts on the impending Bills Chiefs rematch as well as I why I believe the Commanders have a better chance than folks are giving them credit for heading into this 3rd meeting with the Eagles.

I go over what transpired and rather what went wrong for the Ravens and Mark Andrews amongst other items during a somewhat chaotic set of games this weekend.

We start getting into the thick of things when it comes to the playoffs today with some interesting matchups.

My thoughts on the upcoming Premier League season which should see some pretty stiff competition for the top 4 spots with some contenders on the outside looking in and a pretty steep drop-off from there despite the EPL being far and away the strongest league for soccer this year. Plus I dive into some of the props I would be looking at closer for the remainder of the season.

My thoughts on the actual Premier League season will be in a subsequent episode but today I will be explaining the basics of the fantasy game based around the Premier League and how it differs from most convential formats you are accustomed to in fantasy sports.

My thoughts on the winners and losers of the MLB trade deadline and the importance it holds for the rest of the season. Pretty telling indictment of the league that over half of these teams are not even trying despite two wildcard spots in both leagues.

We are across the pond for the 4th major of the year so you know that means a late night for tee times and checking the weather before the slate locks. I give my final thoughts on what I believe are worthwhile bets to consider as well as the route I will be pursuing in terms of lineup construction on Draftkings.

My thoughts on the UFC PPV this evening and where I am leaning towards these fights tonight as we definitely should see some explosive finishes on the card.

I give my thoughts ahead of this year's US Open and where I think the public and oddsmakers are leaning towards for this event. Overall I find the backdrop of the suspended golfers who played on the LIV Tour playing at the US Open this year to be the most interesting storyline throughout the next few days of the tournament.

My overall thoughts ahead of the series opener tonight. I feel very confident in my betting lean on this matchup and how I will build lineups throughout the series.

My quick thoughts ahead of the game tonight.

My belabored thoughts on the game while I am under the weather.

Quick update on the Stanley Cup Playoffs before I dive into the NBA Finals

My thoughts on the developments in the NBA and NHL playoffs thus far and how I am looking to approach the Milly Maker contest on Draftkings for Game 1 of the NBA Finals

I give my quick thoughts on the only NHL series to hit a Game 7 in the 2nd round between the Rangers and Hurricanes in what has been a home-ice dominant series. DFS and betting picks to follow in what should be a low-scoring game.

My thoughts on the Game 7 tonight between the Celtics and the Heat with plenty of question marks on the Miami side heading into this one.

My thoughts on the conference final matchups in the East and West and where I think you should be concentrating your wagers on in this round.

I give my quick thoughts on both Game 7s today between the Bucks/Celtics and Mavs/Suns.

Folks we have 5 Game 7s in the NHL this weekend. Five. While I wish the Rangers had already advanced by now I will give my thoughts on the matchups and who should move on to the next round.

My thoughts on Game 3 for both the Celtics/Bucks series as well as Memphis/Golden State.

My thoughts on the upcoming Stanley Cup Playoffs which remains my favorite sport to watch during the playoffs despite having probably the dumbest seeding format in recorded history for almost a decade now. My individual series picks as well as Cup predictions to follow.

We have reached the 2nd round of the NBA Playoffs and plenty of questions left to be answered as the top seeds held form through the 1st round.

My thoughts on what was a wild night in the NFL for Round 1 of the draft where we saw a number of questionable trades involving notable players around the league. Somehow the Packers did not move Jordan Love nor draft a WR and still did not make the list for the top 5 most questionable moves of the night. Sometimes you have to love the logic of this league.

We will recap the Nets debacle last night as well as preview the games on tap today for how I would approach the slate from a betting and dfs perspective.

My quick thoughts on the Saturday 4-game slate and where I think the series matchups will go today. Plenty of injury news to monitor that can have major implications in particular with the Doncic availability.
