Perception vs. Reality, CeeDee Lamb's New Contract, Nick Chubb Injury Concerns, Lessons Learned in Drafts & More

Bryce Johnson and Trip Smith discuss perception versus reality in Fantasy Football...and how it relates to faith and life. 


Topics discussed in this episode include:


1. Early season news you need to take into consideration as you draft.

2. Fantasy players whose perception doesn't necessarily match reality.

3. In what ways can perception not line up with reality when it comes to our faith and how we interact with others?
