passport bros men who are moving overseas in pursuit of love now why is this an issue and why is it so trendy right now yeah we got to talk about it because a bunch of people messages were like hey fun bros what are you going to talk about passport bros so i had to look it up and i had to understand that basically there was a group of guys who moved from america to latin america in search of love in search of building of better family women with more traditional values and they started a bunch of tiktok and youtube accounts based around this concept since then the concept has become so popular that that that passport bros was not just for that group of guys but almost just like an all-encompassing terms for just a movement that some american men are buying into basically it's not a new thing but the branding is new now there's an actual name for it yeah i know growing up andrew people at our church or people in the asian community have always been going back to asia whether it was their motherland country or like a country nearby to find a wife but i guess like that was viewed differently right because your parents or maybe even you were born in asia yeah and it also just made sense because it's your country of origin or you had roots in that country but now there's a lot of guys who are moving to different countries like a lot of latin american countries and they don't have roots from there they're not latin american but they're moving there because they feel like there's a for a number of reasons that we're going to get into it but anyways they're moving there for love yeah i believe that latin america southeast asia and eastern europe are the top three destinations but it could be anywhere else in the world right so i want to real quickly talk about the three different styles because uh we've heard about this concept for a while and we even know some people who have who have taken trips or moved across the seas or whatever it is yeah and i think that this is by the way i want to say this is specifically a 2023 version of this is bruce lee was in the 1970s was already going back and forth between the east and the west so we're not referring to just like being a fob traveling back and forth we're talking about men andrew that are looking for true love and appreciation after exhausting themselves in the american market number two maybe men seeking women with more traditional values you know different countries and different societies there are different levels of economic development societal development capitalism late stages early stages mid stages late late stages people number three andrew there are men that are just seeking fun and hookups and i guess like uh party type of lifestyle yeah and this would be more of the frowned upon style of being a passport bro or as some people on the internet call a sex pat but basically like yeah this is like the more the one that has the bad connotation the other ones are more built in with a little bit more like true intentions of being like hey man you know i don't like my dating options in america and there's a lower cost of living over there i can live a nice life and i can find true love but andrew why would anybody leave the tier s1 country america the country that everybody wants a visa to get pr or green cards in to come to america why would anybody leave this s tier country to non-s tier countries that doesn't make any sense okay so a lot of the criticism is right off the bat okay and not all women are saying this but there's obviously a lot of women who are criticizing these guys the contentious nature of the internet being like yeah of course it's not really a man versus woman thing but yeah anyways that's how it seems like anyways they're like oh you guys are losers you guys can't pull in america you guys don't have uh you guys are not considered very attractive you don't have good jobs and that's why you don't have as many dating options as you would like in america so you have to go over to a easier market you know or you have to go meet women who more value what you can bring to the table as a man financially and things like that i will say it's kind of interesting to see women and usually guys used to say this the other guys growing up to look women to look at a guy and go you get no women's that's why you got to go yeah you l but i guess for this video diva i don't want to talk about like there's always like been you know people who just can't get any love in america who go overseas but what about the people stars have been doing it forever like if you are an asian pop star you had to go back to asia because you weren't going to get no love in the american pop industry but obviously that's what's not on a micro level that was an industry but i want to talk about men who seem like solid men in america men who you look at and you meet and be like yeah you could live a good life in america or maybe they've even been married or had multiple relationships in america but they're still choosing to to seek things abroad right yes now now we have some friends that i know some guys who are have relationships with your friends with passport bros no i do know some uh chinese dudes who married russian women or or uh you know kazakhstan or whatever like america but i guess what i'm saying is like these are normal guys these are not like losing a good job yeah and they're not like bad looking or anything like that but they just are looking for something else overseas so i think that's what i want to pick apart we got to talk about that well what are the reasons that you're hearing on the internet but obviously there there has to be some potential credence to these because it's such a large movement yeah and it's such a large movement that's why we have to delve into this guys it's not just like 10 guys did this like 10 000 like like a lot of guys are talking about this so uh so the reasons range they're ranging from you know they feel like american women are spoiled by the top 20 percent of men will get into that later uh they're sick of the direction that america's going in economically they seek women with more traditional values feeling like americanized women don't hold those traditional values of the past maybe like you know 30 years ago they feel like they will get a bump in an overseas market and that maybe women over there are not as judgmental of their looks or status or maybe they just have a different look standard that they might fit into better of that standard yeah uh maybe they find women overseas in certain countries more attractive period um the cost of living is lower in a lot of these countries so your money can stretch maybe you're a work from home guy you have a bunch of money saved up you work on the computer you trade stocks you don't have to pay new york rent you don't have to pay new york sf la seattle rent um also maybe they have some baggage from back home they want to start new they're a divorcee whatever and maybe they can just they just want to be in a different environment they feel like they can add to the local culture or whatever yeah and i think dude one thing that i want to say is like a lot of people have been doing this for a long time not just guys looking for love like there's a bunch of americans and or even like married couples moving to mexico city to loom lisbon portugal right now like a lot of people think about it every time there's a new president everybody always threatens to move to canada but obviously i guess the connotation is different when it's guys and potentially some of them are going to start media channels dissing the women in their old country yeah that's the issue and here's the thing here's the thing are people just becoming immigrants again in a way but usually when you immigrate to america you're coming from a place that is considered a country that is not as strong right system wise right yeah economically not as strong that's why you're going to the stronger country for better opportunities now it's funny your america is still the strongest country but you're leaving america to go to a country that is economically not as strong but for better life opportunities yeah that's why it's different at the end of the day for me this just boils down to international arbitrage and i for me i don't really view it as any different when you apply it to just like the metric that they're looking for to increase is love you know to me it's not any different you know some people they move for economics some people move for religious persecution freedoms you know what i mean like different people value different things in their life right right right so you're saying now love is just moving up the list of reasons why people are moving for that reason right i guess if you're in america theoretically one way you could look at it is that you're in a s1 tier late stage capitalism economy what do you have now but those last stages of mazel's hierarchy of needs of uh actualization and stuff like that plus obviously this whole thing has existed since the 1950s 60s andrew what about like foreign soldiers that were stationed in like uh international american military oh yeah anyways um all right so here's the controversial part david this has become a man versus woman thing where the women on the internet not all women just the women on the internet leaving comments they're like oh you guys are losers you guys can't make it in america and then the men are clapping back and be like well women uh in america they're lacking traditional values they all just want to do only fans and do this and this and they're getting spoiled on these trips and stuff and you guys just want uh you guys make too much money i think yeah different specific people could have different arguments but what you just listed off were like probably the two ones you see the most yeah those are the most fiery arguments um i would say this part of it is isn't aren't aren't they both right to some extent for some members of the other group but not all members of the other group like some of the passport bros are definitely going to be problematic just like any humans that they move anywhere for higher leverage or greener pastures they're not all like great people there's a distribution right for sure in middle tier people average people some people are really good people some people are bad people so i guess that would be my thing to to say the variance part in terms of like yeah there are bad passport bros for sure oh yeah i guess on the women's side i i guess is that just a perception of society or would you agree that there is certainly a rift between men and women right now in american society because possibly the issues have shifted so quickly yeah i mean we talk about this on our channel how the world has shifted very quickly especially like for example for a lot of like white people or white males in america they feel like the world changed very quick on them yeah they feel like the political narrative is against them yeah you know as a minority man already knew like this is not the country that fully sees me as fully equal in this country i guess so i guess my expectations are a little bit different but yes i can see that uh things change quickly so maybe if you're a guy who you're looking and you wanted women to kind of act like you know how maybe your mom did back like 30 years ago 40 years with the 1960s values yeah 1970s values even um um yeah i could see that things are missing from that right from what from what you're right and then there's a whole debate about do men inherently in their genetics more go with the old ways or the new ways i don't know man i mean these discussions there's like literally entire youtube channels that drop videos every day about this topic and here's another one is like uh another point here is like there's leftover men and women on either side are you referring to the sheng lu yeah yeah in china yeah i think this is like really where the term actually comes from but however there's like leftover men and women in america but those leftover people don't want to date each other so what i mean by leftover is i'm saying like for example there's a decent looking woman who worked very hard in her career she moved up she dated a little bit and stuff like that but she's like maybe 35 years old she's getting a little bit older old enough where now she has to make that decision she's gonna start a family at this point right and maybe she doesn't so she just has pets and dogs and dates and whatever right but but she's maybe not gonna start a family at this point so i guess some people would label her as like a leftover woman like a little too old to start a family with right some people for sure in society definitely not saying that you are if you do yeah but that's just a more modern that's the perception of more modern archetype in society that the proportion of people who fit that archetype has increased over time and then there's obviously the portion of guys who maybe for whatever reason maybe it's themselves or they're awkward or something or they're low value they're difficult to deal with they're uh in stable temperamental stubborn guys you know not so you're saying the leftover people of both groups definitely are not gonna link up they're not matching up well i guess from what i've seen and i'll tell you this uh i've seen people in both situations and i've seen the person that's over 35 that's a single mother with like kids or two kids all both of them have gone overseas but you don't want to notice is when the guys go overseas potentially there's more of an intention of creating a family whereas women are just like well i already got my kids back home i'm just like going overseas for fun yeah yeah yeah and here's the thing so because more men are leaving to be passport bros and there's way more passport bros than passport girls right so that means they're technically should be an imbalance because because if men and women are 50 50 in society as far as population wise then more men are leaving then where does it leave like i guess a certain portion yeah and i think it could vary even per community as well right because america's so diverse i don't know if the number of men leaving is actually significant enough to throw things off but i just know that this is a trend and it's probably going to continue uh moving on andrew somebody a girl there's an argument that's very on the pro female side by the way not saying all females feel there was a this way are the men just smurfing but in real life smurfing i guess is a gaming term where somebody who's like let's say for example a ranked 82 player out of 100 level goes and plays with like the people who are ranked 25 so they could be like a top tier you know the best player in that in that class i guess we in a sports term it would be like people who are in the mba now moving overseas to play in the cba or euro league or even like howard in taiwan the nbl yeah the australian league when they can't really compete at the mba level or the american level anymore they go overseas so that they can still be a mbp right yeah and don't and pretty much dominate essentially yeah i mean like i said it just goes back to the arbitrage thing man different environments like depending on what type of pokemon you are and what stage of evolution and your pokemon you are there's just different environments that cater to different animals you know land seas uh air i think just a question i guess and if if you're someone who feels strongly about this i think a question i would ask is just like you know a lot of these guys not all of them but a lot of these men doing this seem like rational men i guess why would so many rational decent men feel the need to move out of america to another country that is perhaps not as developed as america to live a better life that's because they just want to explore the patriarchy in a country where they're lower on the growth development right maybe no theoretically no seriously maybe that's the reason but i guess it's a little different for every guy but maybe you know what i'm saying so i guess we gotta ask this question i guess let us know what you think in the comment section below because i'm sure and by the way try to keep it civil in the comment section because i think for me i always use this term andra and i actually think it came from the deal websites ymmv your mileage may vary i mean slickdeals.net yes it came from cop and tv's with like three coupons i think like your mileage may vary is so applicable nowadays because it's very difficult to make generalized assumptions about anybody because america's so diverse the desires are so diverse that the the fundamental cards that somebody is is playing with or del they're perceived to have are so diverse ymmv right so even you you're saying even if you are a guy and you move overseas to let's just say the latin america and you have all these expectations about the women there and the traditionalness and the life that you're gonna have it might not be like what your friend got or the guy that's on youtube got right yeah yeah i think that they're for sure i mean they have an established culture and a system that they run over there but where you're gonna fit into that in a micro sense is very different right yeah that's like we both got traded from the brooklyn nets but like you know uh marcus more is getting treated different than kd i don't know our the tj warren my my overall ending takeaway for me is just that you know there's nothing wrong with guys doing this because they're not hurting anybody as long as they're not hurting people when they go over to the other country and they're not messing around right if they're treating everybody with respect technically there's nothing wrong because you're just exercising your freedoms you're using your american passport to go to any different country right and and feel love and feel appreciated if that's the reason why right but i think that part of the issue is when you dump on like women in america or american culture then obviously those people are gonna feel very offended now i don't know what your point is if your goal is to change the culture in america and try to push back on it because you don't like where how it's changing or or not or i would imagine that it's not to change it because they feel like they're just escaping a game map that they don't like how it's changed for them maybe yeah maybe they think they're escaping a sinking ship yeah that's true who knows man let's get real quick and i want to get into some common like arguments about the details of being a passport bro real quick by the way not endorsing this by the way andrew do you think if you go overseas to a country that's not as uh high status as america you might be just used for your status like it's possible for sure yeah it's possible but i don't think it's for sure either yeah i think that perceived higher status could play into attraction as dude i mean well at the end of the day people get married for all different types of reasons and some of the reason is like hey you provide a better life for this person in america or that country would you agree that marriages outside of america for the most part are more like taking the math into equation rather than just like romanticized and stuff it's like more mathematical the algorithms tend to be more practical overseas i believe that i've heard it be called that a little bit more traditional and possibly and not in a negative way transactional but anyways um what do you think about traditional gender roles is it true that these guys passport bros are going to find more traditional gender roles overseas probably in i can't say for every country and every woman right but yeah i guess there is probably more that seems like that would be that's more of the status trend yeah yeah um somebody says but aren't overseas women wanting to be modernized in a sense of like mimicking whatever the other people don't like about america like for example there's these traits about america whether they're viewed as good or bad that that won't they just eventually get there anyway like won't these other countries eventually strive for that yeah and i actually disagree with that because if you look at japan japan is also economically highly highly highly developed and they have very different cultural norms there so it's not like uh i don't fully believe in that like oh yeah just once everybody makes $50,000 a year in a country they all just become like america um well i think it is important to note that oftentimes i would say passport bros they're not always going to the biggest most international city because any international city in any like decent sized country is probably going to have at least in that city have more globalized culture globalized culture which is going to be more based off of american culture right because american culture is so dominant globally um and then uh somebody said but doesn't it matter who you are a lot like won't they only want white guys over there that's what that's what i uh i don't know i mean there's a lot of youtube channels of of asian guys and indian dudes and all types of people that are like black guys that are going overseas so uh i'm sure that i probably could shift depending on what country you're in yeah i'm i'm sure depending on the country and the person you meet and i guess how good looking of a person you are and how much you have to provide for them is probably maybe even the biggest factor but ymv yeah that's what i see not all the same guys anyways guys let us know in the comments down below have you heard of this term or have you heard of this kind of action of like uh and it's particularly men seeking love overseas right by the way women don't do this quite as often um and so i guess like let us know what you think about this whole thing and what you think about the branding passport pro is it getting on a hand are guys just giving up too early in america are they too weak or is the game hopeless and stacked against you let us know in the comment section below guys keep the discussion civil you guys know the hot pot boys discussing things frivolous to serious till next time we out peace


CBS now invites you to enjoy Life with Luigi. Yes, it's Life with Luigi, a comedy show created by Cy Howard, written and directed by Lou Derman, and starring that celebrated actor Mr. J. Carol Nash, with Alan Reed as Pasquale. Early this week, Luigi received a letter from his mother, begging him to come home to Italy for a visit. And when he tried to borrow the money from Pasquale, they had an argument over Rosa. And Pasquale threw Luigi out of the antique shop. We find Luigi now on his friend Schultz's home, writing to his mama Vasco in Italy. Yesterday, mama mia, I went to the employment agency and the fellow there says he's got a job for me, where he's selling the vacuum cleaners. Yeah, vacuum cleaner, mama mia. In America, that's the broom with the electric. First you push the plug in the wall, then it's to make a big noise, then the electric bulb is light up on the bottom so the broom can nowhere to look for the work. Don't worry, don't worry, mama mia. With this job, I'm soon going to save up enough money to come home and then I'm going to... Excuse me, mama mia, I'm going to be right back. Luigi, my friend. How's the little old maid spinster today, eh? Eh, eh, eh, eh. Look at that sort of friend Schultz today, eh? He's awake, eh? Luigi, the least you could do is be polite and look at me when you ain't talking to me. I'm going to talk with you no more. You and me, we all washed up. Good, now let's hang on the line. It's a good idea, dry up and then hang yourself. Funny thing, when I say it, it's a come out of debt for it. You know I didn't mean to kick you out of the antique shop. I'm not a mean man. It's just that, well, whenever we have a little argument, you bring out the jackal from above my hide. Push the jackal back and I go on home. A certain party to come home, and maybe I'm going to lend him some money. Pascuali, I'm a woman to come back if you was to offer me five a million dollars. That's about a six million. Better still, I was about if I lend you a few hundred of cash so you could go home to Italy and see your mama like she's a beggar in the land, eh? What do you say, little cabbage pudding? No, no, no, no. Pascuali, any time you offer me the money, you got a big factory reason behind it. I'm asking you to marry Rosa. You think that's all I got in my mind? You think every time I see you all I can talk about it's a Rosa? Believe me, I didn't even know she was there. Well, I did. House was leaning over on her side. There are things to do. Now look, don't be so stubborn, Luigi. You can live here in the shelters forever before you know the whole neighborhood and call a new Luigi the Leech. Well, I'm not going to be Luigi the Leech no more.  I would have said you... you job? You want a job? A job that's always going to remind me of you, Pascuali.  Look at the big salesman. I can just see you now. Pardon me, lady. This is Luigi Basker. I'm a green horn, but I've got a vacuum cleaner. Wham!   Are you? Where's your Social Security card, Mr. Big Shot? Where's my... Social Security? What's that? What's that? This wants to be a salesman, eh? Social Security card, Mr. Foreigner. That's a card every salesman has got to get from the government.  I've never heard about that before. Let me see. That's a... Social Security. Where do I get this card, Pascuali? Where you get the card? By joining the SPCA. SPCA? Yeah, Society for Peddling Cleaners in America. You can't get in the union because they only take kids who's working their way through college. No, no, ma'am. But Mr. Grammer, he's... He's a... He's a... He's from the epic Sabatka McLean Company. He said I should've come in this morning and... and he's starting to work. All right, all right. Go ahead, Luigi. Be a black market salesman. Sell without a Social Security card in the SPCA. In a one week, you'll have to find yourself sitting between two cows on a boat going to South America. No, no, no, no.  Oh, hello. It's my night school teacher, Miss Spaulding. Come on in, please, Miss Spaulding. It's something important I'm... I'm gonna tell you. Well, I gotta go now, Luigi. Hello, Miss Spaulding. Goodbye. All right, goodness, Mr. Pascuali was in quite a hurry, wasn't he? Miss Spaulding, I'm... I'm gonna get a terrible trouble. First, the Pascuali, he chased me out of my antique shop. Then... then I find the job with selling a vacuum cleaner so I can make a money to see my mom and me. But Miss Spaulding says that without a Social Security, you're never gonna get in the SPCA. Well, I suspect Mr. Pascuali is pulling your leg. No, no, we wasn't a fight and we was a just party. No, Mr. Basko, I mean, he was teasing you. The reason I stopped by here, I ran across Mr. Schultz and he told me about your job and, well, I... I just wanted to wish you luck. Oh, well, thank you so much, Miss Spaulding. Then... then I... I don't need a permission to film with the government to be a salesman, huh? Well, no, of course not. You're a wonderful part of living in a democracy, Mr. Basko. You can hold any job you want and you may change jobs whenever you wish. Now, don't forget Abraham Lincoln held over a dozen jobs before he became president. I bet he sold a vacuum cleaner, too, huh? No, I'm afraid not. Well, good luck on your new job, Mr. Basko, and I'm sure you'll be able to make enough money to make that visit back to Italy. Oh, thank you. Thank you so much, Miss Spaulding. Had I done a wedding, I'm not gonna sell her any vacuum cleaners. I'm gonna afford to see my mom on the every weekend. Okay, Basko, this is the house. Now, look, this Mrs. McCrary phoned in for a free demonstration, see? I want you to keep your eyes open and watch how I rope in the suckers, see? I don't want to worry because I'm asleep pretty good. You know, you worry me, Basko. Now, just one thing. Let me do all the talking. You just keep quiet. That's all right, Mr. Graham. I'm not that so good at talking, but I'm very good at shutting up. Come on. Yes? Mrs. McCrary? Yes. My name is Mr. Graham, and I represent the Apex Vacuum Cleaner Company. I believe you phoned in for a free demonstration. Oh, yes. Come in, won't you? Thank you. Thank you. Excuse me, excuse me.  What? Mrs. McCrary, this is my assistant, Mr. Basko. Oh, how do you do? I'm afraid of fire. Three weeks ago, I had a little cold, but the squallet was filling me up. Hey, Basko. Please, I'm all right. I'm gonna shut up. Mrs. McCrary, I'm not going to go into any long-winded sales, pitch about our clean and tell you why we think our model is the best on the market. Suffice to say that we believe in honesty at all times. Right, Basko? Don't worry.  Just take my word for Mrs. McCrary. In the last couple of hours, we've placed six machines in homes just like yours. Oh, in this neighborhood, Mr. Basko? He didn't sell a wonder while I was away to me. Pleasure, pleasure, Mr. Grammys. You said that we believe in honesty. He's a great kid, Mrs. McCrary. Now, action speaks for itself, we always say. Now, where is the outlet in this room, please? Oh, right there, behind the sofa. Okey-dokey. Plug this in, Basko. Okey-dokey. I'mma plug them in. First of all, we've got to move away the cicature. My money. You know, lady, you need this cleaner very badly.  Well, I really haven't had a chance to clean it. Oh, you plenty smart, Mrs. McCrary.  Basko! Well, we intend to get a new round. Don't mind him, Mrs. McCrary. He's new with the fern. Come on, Basko, what's holding up the works? Well, I got a little shock and I'm waiting until my finger cools off. Okey-dokey is in now. Push a little button. Is there something wrong with the switch, Mr. Graham? No, no, it'll be fine. Well, perhaps it's my socket that's at fault. Yes, that could very well be. Maybe the machine isn't that so good. It's like my mom always says, there's nothing like a plan or the broom to sweep up with. Ma'am, I'm a better shut up, ma'am. Basko, maybe you better wait for me outside, huh? But before you said that, you want I should watch you how you rope in the suckers. He's a great kidder, Mrs. McCrary, just like I said. I think he's cute. Are these machines very expensive, Mr. Graham? Oh, absolutely not. There's only $10 down or $10 a month? Oh, that doesn't sound like very much. And the whole thing is that up to only $154. Oh, good heavens, I can't afford that. Well, it's not so much, Mrs. McCrary. No, no, it's not so much. It's only $200. Basko, you're fired. No, no, no, please, please, please.   Never mind. I'll take the machine, madam. Thank you and goodbye. I'm sorry, Mr. Basko. It's all right. It's all right, dear. I didn't mean to cost you your job. It's all right. It was all in my fault.  No, no, please, I'm never going to be a good assessment. But don't worry. I'm not going to get to Italy even if I'm a got a bag, a bottle, or... Sure. I swear I'm not going to get the money. What?  That's why I'm not going to get the money for the trip. And now I know where I'm... Mrs. McCrary? Yes? I feel so good now. Don't worry about the dirt behind the sofa. Don't worry about the notches. You bring the broom, my hepper, you sweep it under the rug. You're going to join us tomorrow at this same time and find out just how Luigi Basko intends to raise the money for the boat trip home to Mamma Mia.


Have you ever heard the expression Big Hat, No Cattle? When I think of the 8A Business Development Program, I think of Big Hat, No Cattle, meaning what? You've got all hat, but no substance, right? And so a lot of people out there bragging, boasting, I've got 8A certification, right? But they don't even know how to do it. They don't know what to do, where to go, how to navigate. They don't even know how this program even works. Someone told them to get a, so they lucked up, hired a consultant, paid someone some money, maybe they even filled out the application themselves. They got 8A certification and now they're stuck. Well, if you are Big Hat, No Cattle, stuck with 8A certification and wanna learn how to navigate the program, stay tuned for this video coming up right now. We're gonna take you through a walkthrough behind the scenes of the 8A program and how it works. All right, thank you for joining me over to the big screen. Today we're discussing the 8A Business Development Program, the infamous 8A, quote unquote, license to steal program. So many people out there have asked me questions about it, it's probably the most, number one most asked thing in government contract is the 8A program. Should I get 8A? Should I become 8A? When to start, when not to start? How does it work? I've had 8A and I haven't been successful. This is the notorious, infamous 8A video. So again, I've been working and wanting to get this out for probably months, if not a year at this best. So now I've made this video, we're gonna talk today about the 8A program and how it works. First and foremost, the three components of a successful 8A program is the agency, the SBA and the firm itself. So again, we all have to work together harmoniously in order to facilitate an 8A contract, right? Now, the SBA and the agencies also will interchange that word between agency and procuring entity. So you'll hear me mix and match the two words. But the SBA and the agency itself or the procuring entity has what between them called a partnership agreement. So the partnership agreement, the point of it is to help expedite contract actions between the agency, the SBA and the 8A firm. So in order to actually make this whole 8A process work, there had to be some rules put in place by the government, right? Saying how the rules work, how it governs the program and allow for those expedient transactions that we'd come to know that happen along the 8A pathway. And just to give you an example of where the partnership agreements are at, any and every one of us can go on the SBA's website and take a look here and you'll see the actual partnership agreements. There's 50 of them in place right now with most of the agencies that you guys learn to know and trust and like. Probably the ones that don't have partnership agreements are the ones that are outside of the continental United States but the Department of Defense, Interior, and again, most of the agencies that we all do business with have established partnership agreements in place with the SBA on how to govern the actual 8A program. And if they do not happen to have a partnership agreement in place, don't worry because they have to, as long as they follow chapters, CFR 124.508 and the FAR 1908, they're good to go. This is an example of what that partnership agreement looks like. Here's the one between the SBA and the Agency for International Development. And again, it just states the Small Business Act. It says that they developed this 8A business program and how it works. And again, the rules governing the program, the do's and don'ts, and what the agencies should be doing in order to enact an actual 8A contract. So again, how this works, the gist for everyone is the SBA has an agreement with the entities and that agreement governs the rules and then you as the 8A firm has been certified by the, right? So remember, in order to get 8A, you've got to be approved by the SBA. So technically you're under the umbrella of the SBA. So again, all certified 8A firms fall under the auspice of the SBA. So now what happens is the actual contract doesn't take place between the entity and the 8A firm. It takes place between the entity and the SBA and then you being one of their firms, then the SBA would then in turn give you the contract and we're gonna explain how all of this works towards the end of the video, all right? But just so you know the dynamics, the contract doesn't go directly from the 8A firm to the entity, it goes the SBA is an intermediary between the two of you, right? So between the entity and the 8A, the SBA is the actual intermediary. So Eric, why does this whole 8A thing, how did it come about? I don't really know the history of the 8A program itself but what I do know about the 8A program and the benefits of it is a couple things. One is it's a quicker way to procure projects to get them done and then at the same time help add some sort of economic impact to small businesses and upstart firms. So the program serves twofold, right? So it allows for an expedited manner in which agencies can do business, get their products accomplished, but at the same time satisfy a bigger requirement which is to help involve small business firms, help put money back into the communities, help with a little start businesses who we know are the backbone of America. So as you see here on the chart, the actual SBA, the agency and the 8A firm together, they'll put together what's called sole source or negotiated projects for the 8A entity and then that allows them to bypass the traditional bid procedures that you see on the right hand side of the screen which is at first they gotta do market research. So whenever they're gonna do a traditional bid, they're gonna do market research. That market research involves trying to determine whether or not a particular solicitation should be set aside for small businesses, right? So they do initial market research which that could take 30, 45 days, then they'll put out a pre-solicitation, advertising a solicitation as coming down the pipeline and then they'll actually issue the formal solicitation and during the formal solicitation, they'll allow a window of time for bidding that, questions, site visits, things of that nature and then after the bids are accepted, then they have time to do what's called a bid review and then there's a lot of time for a protest, right? So against someone that has a concern or question regarding how the bid went, that allows time for a protest and depending upon how complicated the actual solicitation is, the request for proposal, the work, the scope, it may require presentations depending upon how many people participate, there may be a set of negotiations and then finally the selection process and so as you can see here, the amount of time that it takes to do all of this and from what I've heard, the estimates could be up to nine months and timeframe whereas on the 8A side, if they do a sole source and negotiated type of solicitation acquisition, then you're talking about six months or less. So again, the amount of time that's saved and also another key factor is you see those dots in the middle, I intentionally drew them because if you are the person on the government side, right, and you're responsible for giving out contracts, you don't know the quality of the people that you're receiving bids from. So you're gonna have some good ones, which I have in green, you're gonna have a couple bad ones in red and then you have some, you know, some ones in average and yellow. So you gotta go through and assess all that and make the correct determination and that's not an easy task for anyone to do. So again, the traditional bid procedures first is the acquisition selection when using 8A firms. Now, how does this all work Eric? How do we make this happen? So again, let's go back to the initial slide. Well, first we have the agency and typically an agency will set out what the requirements are. And then we have the 8A firm, right? Which your 8A as an 8A firm, you have your existing capabilities. So now the procurement center representative is the person that was tasked on behalf of SBA to carry out their policies and their procedures. So the PCR person is the point guy or girl that helps carry out the policies and procedures to ensure that the 8A firms' capabilities match up with an agency's requirements and then that's how we put together a particular contract action. So there's three ways in which they do that. We're gonna go over the three ways today and how they select actions. If anyone has any questions or want to double check behind what we're talking about today, you can go to subpart 19.803, select the acquisition for the 8A program. I just made it visual and I'm going over it today in a way that I think makes it a little bit easier to understand for the majority of people out there because I myself, I like to see little pictures and diagrams and slides. So rather than just reading, just blank text. So hopefully we can get some, add some clarity to the process for you guys out there. So the first way in which we handle the acquisitions is what's called a search letter. You'll see here it says the SBA advises contracting activity of an 8A participant's capabilities through what's called a search letter. A search letter, basically what it is, is a search letter comes from the SBA to a procuring entity slash agency, right? And what this says is there's a request letter sent from the procurement officer of the SBA for and on behalf of an 8A participant to reserve a requirement that matches that participant's qualifications. So we're going to say to them, okay, we have this 8A firm over here and so we have this person's qualifications. This is his list of qualifications, his or her list of qualifications. And so we want, we know that your particular agency buys these products and services. So we just want to find out if there's an opportunity available for this particular 8A firm. And it's really as simple as that. Now, when do you actually request a search letter? And then how do you request a search letter? So one of the things that I'm telling all of the companies that I represent that are part of my program and my courses and things like that, my clients is first you go out and you want to try to find out an opportunity as early as possible in the pipeline, right? So the earlier you find out about an opportunity, the better it is, the higher your chances of successfully having it set aside to become an 8A particular award, an 8A set aside, an 8A procurement. So again, as early as possible in the process that you're aware of something, the better it is to initiate sending out a search letter. So the earliest possible that we know that's on paper, right, is a forecast list. So again, most agencies put out a forecast list. You have the ability to go through and look at what's coming up in the next two, three, four, five years. And at that point, you can request for the SBA to send out a search letter on your behalf. We'll talk about that coming up. Sources sites are great places also to identify future opportunities that are coming on the pipeline. It's also the same token where the government is using to do market research anyway. So there are a lot of times they're trying to determine whether or not this should be set aside for 8A or hub zone or service disabled veteran own. And then a pre-solicitation is still not too late because it has not turned into a formal solicitation. There still is an opportunity to have that set aside as 8A. It's less likely to happen, but it's not impossible. So again, these are three stages finding out about upcoming opportunities where it's appropriate to have a request, a search letter be sent out. How do we do that? So what we do is we, the entity, right? So we, me, I'm the 8A firm, right? And so I look at what agency has this particular opportunity. What's the information I have about the project coming up and what capabilities or experiences do I have that align with those particular requirements? I send that to my SBA rep and I say, hi, you know, is it possible that you can send a search letter on my behalf to for this particular opportunity? The SBA rep then in turn writes up a search letter, sends it along with your capabilities over to that agency on your behalf. And that's it, right? So a lot of times the stuff that's happening is happening in the background. So you never actually really see it, but you have to first initiate a search letter in order for it to happen. They're not gonna do it for you without you requesting it. So again, try and get in as early in the process as possible to, so that way it gives the particular agency the procurement entity time to analyze what their requirements are, how their goals are aligned and see where they're not, this is a possible potential opportunity to set aside in the 8A business program, all right? This is an example of what a search letter looks like. This is an old one that I have because again, like I said, a lot of times the search letters, you don't really, you don't receive them and your SBA guy doesn't necessarily send them to you. So it's something that you request, they send it to the entity and you never really see it. You can request them to send it to you, but oftentimes again, this is something that's done between the SBA and the agency and you're not really privy to that information. But I was able to find an old one just to give you guys a rundown and idea of what this looks like. So you can see a real life example. This one was sent to Mrs. Padaro, says US Small Business Administration is requesting your assistance and the identification of potential procurement opportunities for award on the provisions of the section 8A, Small Business Act 637A, Opportunities Sought for, and again, unless they're gonna put your company name and address, it has come to our attention that your agency has a pending procurement opportunity for this particular regional contracts. We'd like to introduce you to the named owner, the name, title of the company. They're a service disabled veteran firm, they're an 8A firm, HubZone, they've had successful government experience. And then it says on the third paragraph, the SBA has signed an agreement with the Department of Defense for 8A Opportunities. This contract opportunities request is made pursuant to the S Section 8A Small Business Act, identifying the requirements, again, listing the approved business plan of the company, city and state, and within the 8A Business Development Program. So you can see the letters basically referencing laws and acts and charters and agreements that they have between the two entities, the government entities, and just putting forth the fact that, okay, we've got this rules between us, this is a company that we want you to consider for an opportunity. No guarantees, but it's letting them, putting you and the peripheral vision of that particular agency, right? Number two way in which to source acquisitions is what's called a requirements letter. So the SBA identifies a specific requirement for one or more 8A participants and sends over a requirements letter to the agency's Office of Small Business Dispatch Utilization. And so what happens is in the requirement letter, what they do is this is more of, instead of like one to one, this is one to many.  We send them a requirement letter saying we want you to give a piece of these recurring contracts into the 8A program so that we can have companies in our portfolio, 8A firms, participate in those particular activities. This is great specifically when it's like recurring contracts because once you're able to get a recurring contract vehicle into the 8A program, it's really difficult to get it out of the program. There's specific laws that govern how to remove something that is in the 8A program outside of that. So if you have, let's say for example, I had one of my students who's in my pilot program and he sent over his information to the DLA, the DLA asked him because they actually provide, you know, products to the government. DLA says, okay, we have a list of products and their NSN numbers that are already set aside for the 8A program. However, if you have additional products that you sell that NSN numbers, that your particular company who's an 8A certified provides, we will be willing to consider putting those additional NSN numbers on the 8A list. And so this is a good way of showing you that it's not necessarily set aside for one particular 8A firm but what it is is they're gonna put those requirements inside of the pool of 8A contractors allowing it. So now it's only 8A firms within that group that can actually participate in those opportunities. Great news because again, if you have 8A, this is music to your ears. You want to try and get as many potential opportunities put into the 8A pool so that you're not competing with against, you know, every Tom Dick and Harry, right? So if there is for example, anything coming out of pipeline that may benefit the group as a whole, this is where a requirements letter would come into play. Number three, market research. So the agencies may also on their own review other proposed acquisitions for the purposes of identifying requirements, which may be offered to the SBA. Whereas the agencies either independently or through self-marketing efforts of the 8A participant identify requirement for the program. So the way that I see this is there's two ways. And right now it's commonly happening because, you know, you'll see agencies that already have 8A set aside. So they've already said, okay, look, we're already doing these XYZ 8A set aside. So the agency, that's one way. The other thing is the agency itself is saying, okay, we've got some upcoming stuff. We've got some stuff coming out of pipeline. And like we showed you before, when they do the market research, they sit down the source of sought notice, how many 8A firms out here can do this project, right? So now they're doing market research saying, okay, how many 8A firms can do the project? And if we get a favorable response with the appropriate capabilities, then we can set aside 8A. So that's another way. The other way is that you, the 8A firm, and I've done this in my own personal experience, I was on a project and we were working. And then someone in one of the commander's office asked us, could I take a look at their building to see if it had mold in it? And so we took some samples, sent it back to a lab, tested it, and we determined that there was mold in that particular building. They asked us to do a write-up for them, what it would take to redo the mold, to eliminate it and redo the walls and things like that. So it was more of an unsolicited proposal. We submitted that to them. And because it was mold and it was time-sensitive, urgent, critical, and we were the ones had already done the analysis, they went ahead and converted that unsolicited proposal into an 8A particular action. So that was an example of how we took, just by being on site, being present, being around, we were in it also being the ones who were actually doing the construction on site, they were able to convert that into an 8A opportunity for us. So again, if you are looking down the pipeline or seeing forecast list of, you're talking about the requirements or meeting with the engineers, and you have a way in which you can help them meet or exceed those requirements, you have some ideas about how to get that done, those proposed solutions can be converted into opportunities to put into the 8A program. There's an example here of where the actual government themselves were seeking out qualified 8A firms to meet their missions to do business with. So it said that in this case, this was a DLA, and they were saying, hey, listen, we are looking for qualified 8A firms to meet our missions, work to do business with, please see the attached information to see if any of your firms meet the criteria that we can do business with. And so they sent this out, the procurement entity sent it to the SBA to send out to the firms in that particular region. So that thought that was great market research. Now, let's assume that we know the three ways in which they do that. So what's the next step? Well, after the entity themselves, right, they've done their evaluations, I've done analysis and they said, okay, whether through the requirements letter, whether through the search letter or through the market research, they said, okay, we wanna work with your company, right? So what's the next step that happened? So the next step is what they do is call an offering letter. So the procurement entity slash agency will send to the SBA what's called an offering letter. And then what it says is, okay, the contract office shall notify the SBA to the extent of its plans to place an ADA contract with the SBA for specific quantities, items of work. I'm then it's called an offering letter. Here's an example of an offering letter. Again, the government agency is sending this to the SBA. So it says to SBA this requirement is being processed under our partnership agreement. You keep hearing those words, partnership agreement in place, right? Those things are critical to know. So remember, I always tell everyone, in order to be an expert or consider, I'd say an expert, in order to be considered proficient, knowledgeable in this place, you must use the lingo. So again, if you don't use the lingo and you're not talking about these types of things, then it's very easy for someone to look past or look beyond you as though you don't have any idea or understanding of how any of this stuff comes together. But if you start using the same vocabulary as the government entities, they're gonna have to respect you and they're gonna have to start acting on the best interests of your behalf. So again, learn this to understand the lingo. But it says here the requirements being processed under a partnership agreement between the SBA and DOD under which procedural changes, the ADA process has been made, the Air Force Reserve Contracting Officer was solicited a proposal, whole discussion to make contact work directed to the ADA firm pursuant to the procedures. They're offering this requirement to the ADA Contracting Program as a ADA sole source set aside. And then it tells you what the scope of work is and therefore, so that's an offering letter. So now, they made the offering letter and so the SBA upon receipt of the contracting officer's letter, the SBA must determine whether or not they wanna accept the requirement and to the ADA program. They have, and then they have only 10 days to do so. Now, I know what you're thinking and I thought the same thing and say, well, why would they not accept something to the program? I don't have any good basis for agreeing why they would not, unless, okay, so let me retract that statement. There's a couple of reasons why they may not accept the letter. From what I understand from talking with people within the SBA, let's say your company exceeded the size standard, right? So now your company has grown to this monstrous company and contracting officer's still trying to give you projects. That may be a reason why they won't accept you. Number two, let's say that your company failed to do their annual requirement. So you forget failed to update your taxes or failed to do your annual report and so now, even though you're within the ADA program, all of your information is not updated. That might be a reason why they failed to accept the letter on your behalf. And then the other reason would be, maybe your company, they don't have the necessary experience or expertise in order to do that. So maybe you failed at some other projects that the government SBA is aware of that this particular agency may not be aware of. So maybe you've had poor performance at other similar type jobs of size and scale and so the SBA, to protect their inches, will not accept that on your behalf. So but assuming that none of those three things hold true, the SBA is more than likely going to send out what's called an acceptance letter on your behalf, accepting this particular solicitation project be entered into the ADA business program for you. All right? Now, this is what an acceptance letter looks like so it says, okay, this letter is a service as acceptance of the offer submitted by your agency on September 9th in accordance with the ADA Small Business Act and federal acquisition regulation, the Excavated Partnership Agreement between US Small Business and the Department of Air Force. Hereby, accept your offer for the requirement and it lists the requirement on behalf it lists the company's name. It says the dollar value, the NAX code, the size standard, we've conducted an analysis of the requirement with the provisions and we don't see any adverse impact. The results analysis is real that no small business performed the requirement for at least 24 months and it tells you some other rules, things like that, that they must comply with, all right?  But wait, Eric, what if my ADA rep doesn't know what to do? Well, the reason why we have, I'm putting out these videos, the reason why there's books on this stuff, there's reason why there's rules on how this stuff, in my opinion, if your ADA rep doesn't know what to do or you've never heard of this stuff before, it would behoove you to take it upon yourself to try and learn it, right? So go back, re-watch the video and try and learn how to do this stuff. Here's a couple of things that I can suggest that may help you out in your endeavors of trying to learn and grasp this information for your own benefit, right? So Procurement Center Routes, remember we talked about that earlier on the video, that's in subpart 19.4, Corporations Small Business Administration. It discusses their roles and responsibilities. It also states that if you have a procurement center rep that's not doing his or her job, but they can be replaced, that you can go above that person's head. It's only two pages and one paragraph long. So really, I think that anyone who has ADA should absolutely read this and try and digest these two pages and one paragraph. The second suggestion I have is, what governs the ADA program and how it works is subpart 19.8, contracting with the Small Business Administration, the ADA program. It's 11 pages, but really the first four is all the meat and potatoes and it talks about general and how this thing is administered and also about the selection and acquisition that we just went over in today's video.  I just finished doing a podcast interview with one of the recent 2016 and 2017 NASA award winners, also 2016 SBA award winner. And let me tell you, the SBA was her best friend. The SBA for all of its faults, criticism and comments, they are really good people. They're just really busy, they're understaffed and probably underpaid more than likely. So again, but if you show interest and you participate and you're out there doing things, let them know, send your SBA rep an email, tell them what you're doing, let them know updates. If you went out and met with an agency, let them know who you met with, who you spoke with, give them kind of a heads up on what's going on, show interest and they will show interest in you. Another recommendation, make connections with a few agencies. I know we want to go out there and we want to do business with everybody. We want to do all services, but stick with just a few agencies, get to know them, be where they're at, go where they go, participate in their events, volunteer if you've got to. But again, make connections with a few agencies, become friends with your SBA staff and then stay interested. It's very easy to become discouraged. I know the feeling, again, when we had A&A, we didn't have anyone to show us the ropes, we didn't have anyone to help us, but I do remember one time when I was at the airport and the diversity's rep from this large major contractor, he told us, he said, listen, what happens is, we'll bring people in, they'll do the whole dog and pony show, right?  And then a lot of us, what we'll do is we'll say, well, this thing doesn't work and then we'll give up.  I came here again, nothing happened. You told me to follow these steps, you told me to do these activities. I did those things, I increased my bonding, I increased my credit line, I increased, I build my team. When are you guys gonna give me a shot? It's those people who stay interested and are persistent, they're gonna win and the long term. And so with that said, I wanna say to you guys, happy A-daying. I hope this video helped. Some people out there, I hope that I was able to explain the process a little bit, add some clarity to it. I know it's probably confusing if you've never seen it before, so maybe they'll go back and watch it a couple of times. Hopefully, in the future I can add maybe some more examples, some more slides. We can talk about this and have some further discussions about the A-daying. But at the very least, you've got a huge macro low perspective on the A-daying program and how it works so that you can now take that back to your office, to your team and start implementing some of these steps that we talked about. Okay, listen. Hey, as always, thanks for watching. Hey guys, thanks for watching that video on A-daying. Listen, I know the A-daying program. I've been part of the A-daying program for the last 12 years and it's not a simple program to use, but it's very valuable. It can be instrumental and people's success growing from zero to millions of dollars in revenue. So again, it's a fabulous program. You just have to learn how to use it and how to work it. And unfortunately, the government doesn't have funding to teach us how to take advantage of all the benefits of the program. But hopefully today with this video that will help some people further their journey and we're gonna have some upcoming videos about A-daying coming down on Pipeline. As always, if there's anything that you wanna hear about you wanna see, let me know, send comments below.  I'll see you next time.


Hey, Psych2Goers, don't you just love, love? Loving someone is an exciting thing, and being loved back is even more so. But what if your partner hasn't set those magical three words yet? Maybe there are a few things you could do to get them thinking about adding those three words to their vocabulary with you. Well, there may just be. Here are seven things to make someone fall in love with you. Number one, make eye contact. Lovers simply love making eye contact. Who doesn't want to gaze endearingly into the eyes of their sweet love. Keeping strong eye contact is a common behavior of couples who love each other. According to a study from former Harvard Associate Professor Zick Rubin, lovers who rated high on his love scale test spent significantly more time looking into each other's eyes. Couples who ranked as weakly in love, on the other hand, didn't spend as much time gazing into their partner's eyes. If you start to spend more time looking into your partner's eyes, their brain may just get the right idea about love with you. Many may already relate to this sweet gaze with love. After all, the last time they were staring off into someone else's eyes this much, they were in love. Plus, having great eye contact is often seen as an attractive trait as it can often make one appear confident. Number two, share a passion. A couple that shares the passion together will likely relate to their partner more. Talk with them about it and spend time doing those interests together. This means more time for bonding and the inevitable falling in love.  You need a strong and healthy relationship first, but it could move them towards those feelings. If you don't have as many interests, try starting a new hobby together. Fall in love with both it and each other. Number three, spend time with them. You probably already had this one in mind.  In any healthy relationship, it's important to give each other a healthy amount of time and attention to grow as a couple. It's also a good idea to show your partner you're there for them when they need you most. But just being around someone more often may have them feeling all lovey-dovey for you in no time. According to the psychological study by R.B. Jazonk, the mere exposure effect is a psychological phenomenon in which people find themselves preferring someone or something simply because they developed familiarity with them. When a person is repeatedly exposed to a certain stimulus, that person develops familiarity with the stimuli and therefore prefers its presence. And they may even love your presence too. Number four, be a true friend. At the base of a healthy relationship, there is friendship. If you want someone to love you, your relationship needs to ride on more than just romance and passion. A good friend that listens and cares at the end of a long day is something many would enjoy. So it's best to work on your friendship with them as well as your romance. Number five, bring them food. Yeah, giving food to your partner may just make them feel something more for you according to a study published in the Journal Frontiers of Psychology. The study suggests that food offering thus provides a way of coping with distress and empathic concern, as well as an effective means of offering social support, resulting in increased positive effect across interaction partners and an increase in interpersonal closeness. Basically, buy them a burger and fries along with your roses. It shows them that you care. Number six, love them. I mean, you do love them, right? It's important that you don't simply just desire the feeling of being loved, but actually love your partner back. If you want someone to love you, you need to first ask yourself, do I love them? Or are you just craving the perks of feeling loved? Reciprocated love is the best kind. And number seven, love yourself first. If you want a strong and healthy relationship, the best thing you can do is to love yourself.  It's important to practice self-love, self-appreciation and the act of caring for yourself. If you are content and happy with yourself first, it will only give off confidence and an aura that will attract your perfect partner.  So are you in love? And do you have a hunch that your partner is in love with you too? Tell us in the comments down below.

What's going on friends and family of FanDuel and welcome in to the week 17 DFS Thuds edition of the FanDuel hurry up I'm Ryan Williams. You can find me on Twitter at Ryan Alexander underscore W And I'm here to give you my top three plays for the DFS main slate going into week 17 Now before we get into the plays guys We only got two more of these one more actually of regular season play in the hurry up Hopefully you guys have been winning some money having some success if you have Please drop a comment. We appreciate that hit the like button as well too on the videos And you also can hit that notification bell every time we go live You'll you'll be the first to know so we appreciate you guys rocking with us on the YouTube channel It's been a fun year and we still got two weeks of the regular season to when you got some money starting off with week 17 So let's get into the plays We're gonna start it off like we always do here at the quarterback position and that's $8,500 Patrick Mahomes this chiefs and bingles game is gonna be must-see TV Lots of playoff implications coming into this game The chiefs kind of control their own destiny if they lose this game to Cincinnati Going into Cincinnati and Tennessee wins out They are in jeopardy of losing the first the number one seed and playing on wild card weekend So definitely chiefs got a gear up here for this game And I think they will granted that everything that Cincinnati just did to their you know rival opponent there in Baltimore Ravens Joe Burrow having a smash game. So let's see if he can you know, he reciprocates that We got to have Patrick Mahomes on the other side keep in pace This total of the game is 49 and a half second highest total on Sunday And you love that teams of passing at the third highest rate against the Cincinnati Bengals They're actually allowing the fourth most passing yards to opposing quarterbacks. Now Patrick Mahomes has actually You know, he had a rough start there in the middle of the season, but he's hit his stride in the past three games He's had multiple scores in all three of those games. He had only had one multiple score game in the previous six games So definitely like what he's what he's been doing there. Also likely to get Travis Kelsey back They can definitely use him in this matchup. I know that Byron Pringle He kind of filled in pretty nicely there. Shout out to you guys who had him in your season long drafts or best ball drafts That really paid off dividends But we also got to talk about his numbers on the road Which I'll talk about a piece that I've talked about multiple times on the hurry up this year to pair Patrick Mahomes with But his numbers on the road. He's actually had His 400 yards both of his 400 yard passing games this year have come on the road and both of his five Touchdown or more when it comes to passing have come on the road as well, too He's only faced Cincinnati one of the time in his career He put up 350 in four touchdowns. This offense is gonna have to run through Patrick Mahomes and we're getting him at 8500 He's got to be a DFS stud this week and he's mine for week 17 at the quarterback position Let's move over to the running back position here and we wouldn't be having a DFS studs Hurry up without talking about the boy Jonathan Taylor who's going against the Las Vegas Raiders now this one, you know Really had a lot of implications to it We possibly we're not gonna get Carson Wentz as he tested positive for COVID but due to the new NFL rules it seems like we will get Wentz suited up for Sunday barring any, you know Unforeseen circumstance there if he's able to test negative leading into the Sunday slate But regardless if it's Carson Wentz or a backup, we got to love Jonathan Taylor here He's ten thousand dollars coming in this week, but he's absolutely been a stud I know he disappointed for some people relative to you know, what he had been putting up on the Christmas Day slate But still, you know, you're looking at him having a hundred Having a hundred yards in a and or a touchdown in 12 straight games Absolutely a stud at the running back position has been a stud for our DFS lineups in ten thousand dollars It might seem hefty, but when you're looking at the guys priced around him and Austin Echler and Alvin Camara Even Joe mix in the snap shares for those guys, you know, they have other people to compete with Jonathan Taylor He really doesn't have you know guys to compete with in the backfield Marlin Mack is actually, you know out I believe for this season if not on IR, he's gotten a heme Heinz there But he's still you know seeing 60 Jonathan Taylor still seeing 68% of the snaps and a 50% Touchshare compared to you know, 30% snaps for Naheem Heinz and and I believe only a 30 or 20% Touchshare as well to go along with that the Raiders are allowing the fourth most running back touchdowns and the fifth most fan duel points to opposing Running backs fire up Jonathan Taylor this week with confidence bringing us to our last DFS stud for week 17 none other than Tyree kill coming in at $8,200 on the site and the reason why I like to go back to the well with Tyree kill I'll talk about his his road splits, but really just from an overall state of the slate We got Cooper cup on the slate guys like you know Don't want to miss out on Debo Samuel as well And even though this is a high total and I still think his his ownership on Sunday will still be high enough It might or was still be relatively high. It won't be high enough Compared to some people getting disappointed by him only putting up You know three or four fantasy points in what should have been a smash quote-unquote matchup with Travis Kelsey being out Travis Kelsey being back healthy will definitely help open up the field for Tyree kill And then we got to talk about his his road split numbers I mean Patrick Mahomes road splits are pretty stout as well But this this road splits for Tyree kill are absolutely incredible when you're looking at 35 career touchdowns on the road Comparative to 21 touchdowns that he scored at home. He's had three Games with over a hundred forty yards receiving this year two of them have come on the road and nine plus targets in every game On the road since week two so absolutely explosive and then I touched on this going into the Philly game earlier this year when Everybody wanted to play Travis Kelsey with the chiefs traveling in to Philly I was talking about Tyree kill in the same You know splits and and the numbers for him are so daunting when you're talking about fan dual points in his career 27 and a half or more fan dual points This guy has had eight out of 11 of those games in his career those numbers have come in road matchups So he loves for whatever reason, you know being being the bad guy I guess and and having that target playing on the road all things are shaping up for Tyree kill to have an amazing day And I'll be building my line-ups around him as well guys That's gonna do it for the week 17 DFS the studs edition of the fan dual hurry up again We appreciate everybody rocking with us all year long on the fan dual channel and catching the live shows much appreciated guys Make sure you're subscribed to the YouTube channel Like the videos we appreciate all the love and support that we're getting and we're in the grind It's championship week and hopefully you guys can win some money in week 17 in DFS to go along With playing in your championships if you're a lucky to do so right William signing off here You can find me on Twitter at Ryan Alexander underscore W I'll catch you guys next week for the final regular season DFS Studs edition of the fan dual hurry up until then get this money.
