di Tipped Balls
We have a special guest on the show today. Santa himself joins us behind the board. Being a huge Lions fan, St Nick was overjoyed after the big cats rained on the Vikings parade. Sam has finally bought in, affirming his promise that he will pick Detroit to win out, and the expectation should be a playoff appearance for the Lions this year. Uncle Sam is glad that we finally saw the Broncos team we expected to see all year, until Russ went out with a very untimely injury. Great defense almost out Denver back on the map against the Chiefs, but what happened in Dallas? The Texans almost took down the Cowboys in the battle for Texas, nearly confirming Uncle Sams ideology that Mike McCarthy and Dak are frauds. Sam pretty down for the count due to illness called for Todd Bowles job after the 9ers embarrassed Tom and the Bucs in his homecoming. He also believes that the Jags might give a spiraling Titans team a run for their money in the AFC South, and is ready to write off the Giants, Ravens, and Seahawks.
Can you believe it? Christmas tunes, horrible drivers, and only ONE month of regular season football left. We discuss a slew of divisional matchups slated for week 14 and make our picks on this week's winners and losers. Bruce is a believer in the Vegas bettors and his own Detroit Lions to beat the 10-2 Vikings at Ford field…even though they are all wrong. Uncle Sam having a blue Christmas and feeling under the weather this week picks Mr. Huntley and the Ravens who are riddled with injury to beat their rival in Pittsburgh in monotoned fashion. Sam thinks Tom Brady will upset the 49ers in his return home to the Bay Area. We end off the show by discussing the plague of injuries, and an interesting QB change in Atlanta, and why Arthur Smith might be on to something.
After a quick recap of Monday night's action, we update you on injuries impacting the fantasy football world in week 14, give you advice on who we would start and who we would sit, and who our weekly sleepers are
The Lions are…in the playoff hunt? Yes the world is officially coming to an end. Bruce doesn’t have much to say after Dan Campbell and Jared Goff destroy the Jaguars on Sunday. We discuss what the expectations should be going forward for our hometown team. Uncle Sam details the impact that the Jimmy G injury has on not just the 49ers but the entirety of the NFC. Sam thinks the Cowboys are a real threat to compete for a Super Bowl appearance after their routing of the Colts on Sunday Night, and compares this years Bengals team, to the Cinderella story that almost was in 2021 after Joe Burrow picks apart the Chiefs to wrap up week 13.
Mac Jones showing emotion? Let’s hope he doesn’t go missing. The Patriots lost to the Bills on Thursday Night Football in very un-Belichickian fashion, and Uncle Sam thinks there’s one person to blame. The tub of shit himself, Matty P. We give our predictions on all the week 13 matchups as we enter the witching hour of the NFL season. Sam believes that the 49ers D has what it takes to stunt the unworldly passing attack of Tua and the Miami Dolphins. Uncle Sam believes the Bucs and Tom Brady’s season will run into the Saints like a truck hitting a brick wall, come completely crashing down. Bruce I’m blind hope and desperation still believes in his Lions to beat up on the Jags at Ford Field. We conclude with our top 5 Christmas movies of all time to help get our resident “Uncle Samta Claus” into the holiday spirit.

How big are the scrotums of Doug Pederson and Brandon Staley? Absolutely gargantuan. In a weekend filled with game deciding 2-point conversions, a million rushing yards, and Russel Willson looking worse than a bronco's ass, Uncle Sam comes after His Excellency Thomas Patrick Brady Jr hard. He blames Tom for the Bucs sub .500 woes, while Sam called for Todd Bowles job. We discuss the Bengals great November, and their ability to shut down King Henry. Philadelphia and MVP favorite Jalen Hurts knock off an injured Aaron Rodgers, and Sam is confident in saying Green Bay’s season is over. Uncle Sam makes a case for Tua and Patty Mahomes to win MVP after blowout wins over the Texans and Rams respectfully. The Tugboat isn’t impressed with the Ravens after their D was exposed by Trevor Lawrence and the Jags.
In the most shocking news of the week a female talked to The Tugboat last night…but you’ll very quickly see by his state during todays show why things didn’t go in his favor. Uncle Sam recaps Dan Campbell blunders that he believed cost the Lions their biggest win in years on Thanksgiving day. He then goes on to continue to degrade Dak Prescott in typical fashion. Bruce deems the curse of Kirk Cousins after 1 pm null and void after the Vikings beat the Pats in a very solid New England effort. Sam talks about seeing big weekends out of Tampa Bay, Washington, and Indy and has a sneaking suspicion that Arizona will hit a hot streak. We go forward with what may be our worst picks of the year, and end with Uncle Sam taking the Carolina Panthers as his lock of the week…no I’m not lying.

This week we break down the Monday night slaughter between the Cardinals and 49ers in Mexico City. Uncle Sam and Bruce make the wrong decision of picking the Detroit Lions to upset the Buffalo Bills. Uncle Sam is the only host who thinks that G Men can defeat the Cowboys, and we all pick the Patriots to beat Kirk Cousins, in prime time to wrap up Thanksgiving! To cap off todays show we hit you with our favorites and foes during our week 12 fantasy frenzy.
Sam admits his wrongdoing picking the Giants over the Lions but isn’t ready to buy in to the Lions hot streak yet. Uncle Sam reminds us over, and over, and over, and over, and over again the importance of divisional matchups after the close game and high intensity of the Steelers and Bengals game as well as how much they impact the playoff picture going forward. He also has an issue with the no call that gave the Pats the W over the Jets. Bruce highlights just how bad the Rams, Panthers, and Bears really are, and tries not to look smug the entire time because the joy of a Lions 3 game win streak has him needing a fresh pair of pants. We debate the matchup between Arizona and San Francisco in Mexico City and highlight Kyler Murray’s importance.
