The Pre-Draft 2018 – It’s Business time

Alright, alright, alright…it’s almost too good to be true.  Yet, it is equally good as it is true.

That’s right, the 2018 Draft is upon us.  T&R welcomes you to a brand new season as we celebrate 11 years of the league.  In this episode, we salute a departing league member and welcome a new one as we talk shop, draft, keepers, and more.

The stakes have never been higher. Nor the pressure, greater. The expectation, tantamount.  The tension, tactile.  And of course: the draft, auction.

Gentlemen, that’s why they call them “business socks”.

Gird thy loins, batten down thy hatches. Feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme.  Get up now, it’s drafting time.

2017 Playoffs – Week 2 | And Then There Were Four

Better late than never, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.  The remaining four managers are vying for the championship, each with…shall we say…varying degrees of confidence.

This week on T&R features all four managers as tensions are high and the stakes are higher.  Delivered to you raw and uncut, this episode highlights the guttural, primitive existence that only the Playoff season can yield.  Also featured in this uncut episode, some moron chomping on potato chips literally the entire broadcast.

2017 Playoffs – Week 1 | And Then There Were Six

After a tumultuous final week of the season, the dust has hardly settled as we enter the 2017 Playoffs.  This, gentlemen, is it.

To those of you who have fallen, we salute you.  And by “we”, I mean those of us who still have a semblance of a soul.  So…none of us, I guess.

To those about to die, we salute you.  And by “we”, I mean those of us who are about to crush you.  And by “solute”, I mean “crush”.

Yep, it’s the playoffs.  Every man for himself.

Week 13 – The Flop

Until the taping of this episode (more specifically, until halfway through the taping of this episode), Week 13 of the Pellwood league was set to be predictable, if not a little sleepy and quiet.  Chatter would be minimal, as most matchups would not impact the playoff bracket.

Everything would change.  Everything has changed.

Week 12 — The Playoff Picture

It’s Week 12, and the pressure is mounting as the playoff picture is anything but set.  In fact, Week 12 has the potential to practically make or break the playoff chances of nearly half the league.

Tensions are high as predictions run rampant.  In this episode, Pete and Seth throw enough prophetic spaghetti on the wall that some of it is bound to stick.

But no one could have predicted this race down the stretch.  No one, perhaps, excepting the inventors of Squish Factor™ themselves.

Weeks 1-5 – The Catch Up

Aaaaaaaaand we’re back!  The league is 5 weeks into the 2018 season, and T&R has some work to do.  Albeit their excuses valid, everyone has felt the absence of the weekly Pod.

With this special episode, the boys recap the season, discuss the current (and surprising) standings, unpack the recent trade flurry, and address the pandering elephant in the room.  The commissioner’s seat has never been hotter as its inhabitant simultaneously acknowledge the truth while still managing to play the victim.

The 2017 Draft Grade™

The draft dust has settled and the fog of war has been lifted.  This, ladies and gentlemen, is the big one.  Your annual Draft Grade™ has arrived.

And the grades this season vary as greatly as the league managers’ post-draft recovery coping mechanisms.  Who will come out on top and, more importantly, who will be the biggest whiny-baby guest on future T&R episodes?  Time will tell.

You have been weighed and measured.  Some of you have been found…wanting.

The Pre-Draft 2017 – And here we go

Alright alright alright….the boys are back in town as we prepare for the league’s 10th Anniversary Season!  It’s back to the grindstone as research, spreadsheets, keepers, and auction values dominate our waking hours (and most of our sleeping hours too).

Join Pete and Seth as they kickoff the pre-draft with a walk down memory lane and a few introductory thoughts ahead of the 2017 season.

Week 11 – A Cut Above The Rest

It’s a bloodbath out there, people.  I mean, cutthroat. Hide your kids, hide your wives.

This week on T&R, we’re joined by the great and powerful Chris Windsor who provides some strong insight into the state of our league.  Pete’s shameless groveling to the fantasy gods finally pays off, and Seth points out that winning matchups is apparently important.

Week 10 – The Luck Of The Irish

As Peter attempts to avoid “fading into irrelevancy in Ireland”, many league managers face a similar challenge as we hit Week 10.  In this episode of T&R, join Seth and Pete for some poorly quoted movie references and a deeper dive into the stats behind our league’s start/sit decisions.

It’s a war of attrition as bye-weeks and injuries (and frankly, poor performances) make this year’s title anyone’s race.  Not to mention, the havoc-inducing effect of the podcast curse.  What Hath Pod Wrought?!
