Simone’s First Flip Back, Sho-Time at the Series, and the Gross Trend in Women’s Sports Betting

Shohei Ohtani showed us why he’s Him while the uncs of the NFL faced off in Thursday Night Football. Vintage Joe Flacco and Aaron Rodgers game to play, which left fans with a 2010s sense of whimsy. Simpler times. Meanwhile, Simone Biles flipped for the first time since getting her new cherries (IYKYK) and NFL WAGs Kylie Kelce and Olivia Culpo got clear on two things: 1) men need to stop saying “we’re pregnant” when expecting a baby and 2) that becoming a mom will probably give you an identity crisis – and that’s OK. 

In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: 

• Drake Maye putting up Tom Brady-esque numbers

• Which WNBA star is Dallas Cowboys’ CeeDee Lamb’s good luck charm

• Why Mike Vrabel always addresses women first in press conferences 

• Whether Joe Burrow is emo or dressing up as Conrad Fischer from “The Summer I Turned Pretty” for Halloween
