MNF Recap + Week 7 Waiver Wire

Michelle (0:09)

And you know what that means. It's 1 o'clock here on the East Coast, which means it's 5 o'clock somewhere. Time to get Happy Hour started. I'm just my best Matthew Berry.

Mo (0:16)

If I close my eyes, I thought Barry was here actually.

Michelle (0:19)

I was trying to get that energy, the only Matthew Berry to break.

Mo (0:22)

You need the gas and then you got to attack it. Yeah.

Michelle (0:25)

I don't know how good or bad that was, but it is the Week 7 Waiver Wire show.

Mo (0:29)

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Michelle (0:31)

If you thought he and I were going to do it, you're absolutely out of your mind. No, no, we had to bring in an expert, somebody who's going to make us all a lot smarter. And that's exactly what we're doing. Dwain McFarland from Fantasy Life joining us. We're going to get great fantasy advice. By the way, yes, your hair is incredible. I don't want to just gloss over that.

Mo (0:46)

Yeah, what kind of product is this? It's amazing. How can I get that?

Michelle (0:49)

Are those highlights or just natural? Like what's going on?

Mo (0:51)

Oh, those are highlights.

Dwain McFarland (0:52)

Those are natural. That's, hey, I've got some gray coming in, but my wife's a hairstylist.

Michelle (0:57)

She is?

Dwain McFarland (0:58)

Michelle, I have to say, like, I'm hanging out with a celebrity today because you were on Law and Order SVU one time. Are you kidding me? Yeah. My wife loves this show. When I come to bed, so my daughter, she has been raised watching crime shows. And so my daughter, when she was like eight, would walk around the house going dun dun, making the noise from Law and Order. So yeah, you're, my wife's like, oh my God, you've gone to another level. This woman was on Law and Order SVU.

Michelle (1:24)

I was a reporter on the steps of the courthouse and John, what's his name? Silverman? Jonathan Silverman was a comic who had made a very inappropriate joke. And I was questioning. I did have a line. I'll say that. I had a line and that's all I want. It made my life. But I hope your daughter becomes like FBI, forensic, something or other because of this.

Fingers crossed.

Dwain McFarland (1:44)

That was originally what she wanted to do.

Michelle (1:46)

Now she wants to be a doctor. She changed her mind.

Dwain McFarland (1:48)

She did. She legit wanted to be in that field for about five years.

Michelle (1:52)

So then what happened?

Dwain McFarland (1:55)

She's doing really good in school and she's like, well, I think I want to be a doctor. She wants to be that or she wants to be an actress. She just did the Addams Family this last week. It was her first lead ever.

Michelle (2:04)

What?

Dwain McFarland (2:04)

She totally crushed it.

She was Morticia. Oh my gosh. Why not both?

Michelle (2:10)

Ken Jeong is a doctor and now look at him.

Dwain McFarland (2:12)

Hey, that's very true. That is very true. We'll tell her to go after both.

She wants to go to NYU. We're trying to save the tuition. We're like, come on, go in state to UT. But honestly, we'll support wherever she goes.

Michelle (2:24)

We got time. Let me talk to her. I'm going to talk to her. We got to talk a little bit at last night. Some recap of the Monday Night Football game. Unfortunately, the Mike Evans of it all, I think. I don't know anyone who's not upset that Mike Evans has another injury. So fantasy impact, if or when he does miss time is what?

Dwain McFarland (2:43)

Yeah, it sounds like he probably will miss this next game. But you know, he's Mike Evans, so he could also just not practice all week. And then he plays in the game. So we'll see what happens. It was kind of a mess in the receiver room when we've already got so many other receivers out, right? Debo Samuel's out, Dazon Stribling is out, DeMarcus Robinson's out. We could get Christian Kirk back this next week. He is eligible to return from IR. They opened his 21 day practice window last week. So he would be the guy that like, if you're in a really deep league, you might think of adding, you know, if nobody else is on the waiver wire, I think we're going to cover a lot of other names that I think people would rather have. But I think mostly what this means, it's a little bit of a ding to Brock Purdy in his short-term outlook, but it's good for George Kittle. It's good for Christian McCaffrey. I think mostly those two players will just continue to eat right now.
