Welcome to Hacks and Jackson, episode number 114.

Brett Ford with Scott Chu.

Scott's off of a crazy weekend driving to and from New York City for a tout

Wars, NL-only auction draft.

Scott, how was your weekend?

Tell us all about it.

It was long.

The drive was terrible.

Pennsylvania was just a wet, dreary, foggy,

topsy-turvy mess driving all the way through that state. But otherwise, you know, getting to New York,

doing towel, always fun, great seeing some faces that I only get to see once or twice a year.

You know, our very own Rick Graham is in that league with me. I got to see the guy.

It's, it's been fun in the last few seasons. I've been able, it's weird to kind of like nerd out,

but, you know, all of us have like that first person we kind of followed in the fantasy baseball

community. Mine was Tristan Cockroft, which is probably true for a lot of us. And he's been in my league for last few years. So it's been fun, like kind of getting to know him a little and doing these leagues and making him mad by using all my remaining

budget at the end of the draft because you can't take it with you. And tout has weird rules

where when you drop a guy, you get 10 times what you bought him for at auction back in fab.

So at the end, it makes zero sense to hold on any money.

So I spent it all on Brett Batty, and he got so mad at me because he wanted him.

But Matt, Matt in a good way.

Like, oh, that, like, I had just enough money to keep everyone else out by maxing my bid.

So it was, it was fun.
