Y-Chromes Ep. 92: Week 2 Picks, Fire LaFleur & Alpha the Sick-Day Princess
Description
A short and sweet one, since the crew is doubling up before the Battle of the Sexes show. Alpha is out sick, which spawns a whole riff on how men become helpless ten-year-olds the moment they catch a fever while women like CannCon's wife power through food poisoning to go work a bar shift. Alpha earns the permanent nickname "Princess" for his trouble.
The bulk of this one is a rapid Week 2 pick-em run through the full slate, from Detroit at Buffalo to the Giants-Rams Monday nighter, with the guys landing on the same picks more often than not. Before that, CannCon vents a lengthy, physics-lecture-grade breakdown of the officiating that helped Green Bay blow another game, complete with his standing "Fire LaFleur" grievance dating back to January.
There is also NFL touchdown-record trivia, the running gag that Jacksonville "does not exist," and optimism about Florida's turnaround ahead of the Georgia game.
