  • I'll Play Your Game week 16 - Sampling Each Other's Kinks
    Dec 22 2024

    Buckle in and set to 1.5 speed - it's a long one! After a week with only one late lead change and very few upsets, we have a lot of trouble finding Line Nirvanas and underdog picks we believe in. Peter pivots in his picks more times than movers taking a couch down a spiral staircase. Also in this episode, Dan stays in a marriage for the worst reason; Peter needs to be hired by an oddsmaker; and we're a little worried about Thomas as he admits to being in a downward spiral and refuses to dishonor his late spouse by remarrying.

    Introduction

    For first-timers, here's a quick overview of our games:
    Dan's game is Marry Fuck Kill, which is scored based on projections vs. performance. We each choose a player at QB, RB, and WR to "Marry," to "Fuck," and to "Kill." Marry earns actual points plus a bonus for each week we stay married. Fuck earns double points. Kill is scored in reverse.
    Thomas' game is Line Nirvana, where we try to convince each other about a game and associated betting line that we "just have that feeling" about.
    Peter's game is Three Dawgs, where we each place 15 Peterbucks on underdog moneyline bets.

    It's week 14, which means it's the last week with byes! There are 12 games on Sunday and Monday, and we're giving you Line Nirvanas on almost half of them. Also in this episode: we learn quick facts about the Bears' new interim coach, Thomas actually picks a division game, Dan predicts the last good game of one player's career, and in Marry, F*ck, Kill, Peter sets himself up for trouble by "diddling" (his word) someone who has a similar name to his spouse.

    Nov 28 2024

    We'd love to hear from you! Send us mail here: roast us, fawn over us, let us know your picks, or just say hi!

    It's Thanksgiving week! All 32 teams are playing, and with three Thursday games and one Friday game, we decided to record on Tuesday so we could include these games in our analysis and silly times.
    Unfortunately, holiday travel impacted Peter's internet connection and Dan's ability to edit the audio, so you're getting this podcast in its pure, uncut form.
    In this episode, Peter and Dan get their feelings out about one of the worst NFL games they've ever watched, and Thomas officially makes Justin Herbert his side piece.

    Since we recorded this one on a Friday night, we decided to introduce alcohol to the pod! It goes... fine. Expect a bit more swearing and more than a few side tangents. In this episode, we recap our best week yet of Marry, F*ck, Kill; Dan hands out a couple of uncreative nicknames; Peter gets the hiccups; Thomas and Dan avoid Peter's coattails; and for some reason we find out everyone's first movie we saw multiple times in the theatre--Thomas' answer will surprise you!

    It's a historic week of I'll Play Your Game - we recap our worst week of Line Nirvana to date, for the first time nobody gets divorced, Peter invents a new word, and we uncover the Kicker Coalition and their conspiracy to prevent a rule change.

    We're halfway through the season already! In this episode, we recap the first half of Marry, F*ck, Kill, and find out which of us is the best marriage material, which is the best assassin, and which is the King of F*cking. Dan has a two-word answer to his Bears pick last week, Peter hopes the Chiefs follow in the Patriots' footsteps, and Thomas nearly has some anonymous sex.

    Nov 2 2024

    We'd love to hear from you! Send us mail here: roast us, fawn over us, let us know your picks, or just say hi!

    Almost halfway through the season! In this episode, we have three different takes on the upcoming Cowboys-Falcons game; a flaw is discovered in Marry F*ck Kill that helps Peter and Thomas and hurts the game's creator; Dan remarries an ex; Peter keeps reminding himself how he feels about the Ravens' defensive coordinator*; and Thomas predicts a very unhappy weekend for his co-hosts.

    * we don't get around to figuring out the guy's name in the recording. It's Zachary Orr. Sorry for the disrespect Mr. Orr. But get your defense right. You're driving a Ferrari like a Honda**.

    **Honda please sponsor us and we'll change the above text.
