JD and Greg weigh in on whether it's okay to root for a team to lose if it means they might get a better draft pick or if it's just tanking, or if it is ever acceptable to root for history if it is against your squad. The conversation also touched on the World Cup, the 49ers, and the Giants' struggles this season. We also chat Brandon Aiyuk and Giants' misery with Cam Inman.
