The D League 2026 Episode 2 - User Acceptance Testing

League-wise, I lost.

Lost to Lantim, which was expected.

I think I was like a 20-point underdog despite him not having a QB until Sunday.

I came to the conclusion during...

Monday Night Football that I think I would much rather have...

I would rather have my opponent's players just score hundreds of points on me than ever see somebody on my bench score a touchdown.

There is no worse feeling than, like, you make a call...

It's the wrong fucking one.

Now you have to sit there and watch the guy you bench rack up the points last night.

So I had started Luther Burden two weeks in a row.

He was terrible.

I look at the Eagles defense.

I look at it's Case Keenum.

He hasn't played in three years.

I never know who the fuck is getting the ball in Ben Johnson's offense.

So we're going to swap him out.

We're going to put in Duntavian Wicks, who's like supposed to be the wide receiver two on the Eagles.

And the first fucking drive of the game on Monday night, Burton gets a touchdown, which would have won me my week.

And immediately I just turned the game off.

I went upstairs and read because I knew, and you all know, if you make a call like that, you swap somebody in or swap somebody out.

And you see that other person, the guy on your bench score, you know, for the rest of the night, your guy will do fucking nothing.

And that's exactly what happened.

Montavia Wicks had like two catches.

It was never even fucking close.

So I just had to sit there with my winning player on the goddamn bench and eat a seven point loss, which really would have helped me out.
