Would You Let Your AI Agent Draft Your Fantasy Football Team?

Clip from the full recording, 1.0–3:35 · download mp4

Brit floats letting agents run everyone's fantasy football picks while Jess brags about beating bot-scalpers for Indian Wells tennis tickets with two laptops and four browsers — a running theme of who's actually delegating their life to AI.

Brit opens with a genuinely strange idea: what if the four of them each had their AI agent join a fantasy football league and argue strategy every week — and what happens once agents just start winning every league on earth. Dave immediately assigns it as a story to chase down. Brit goes further, guessing real agents (Instinct, Muse, OpenClaw) are already quietly running leagues right now.

The theme resurfaces when Jess describes her own manual grind: nailing the first 30 seconds of parent-teacher-conference sign-ups (a skill “five years in the making”) and beating bot-detection with two laptops and four browsers to land Indian Wells tennis tickets in section 117-120 for shade. Brit needles her that an agent could have done all of it; Jess insists she “won the internet over here as a human.”

Key points

  • Brit: what if every host's AI agent joined the same fantasy football league and argued strategy weekly — and what happens once AIs just win every league.
  • Brit suspects real agents (Instinct, Muse, OpenClaw) are already secretly playing fantasy football right now.
  • Jess ran a five-years-in-the-making manual technique to grab the best parent-teacher conference slots the instant sign-ups opened.
  • Jess used two laptops and four browsers to beat bot-detection and land Indian Wells tennis tickets in section 117-120 (the shade section).
  • Brit's read: Jess wasted a lot of human energy doing by hand what an agent could do in seconds.

DaveMostly plays along and assigns the fantasy-football idea as a story for The Information.

Quotes

“What if all of us just had our agent join together in a fantasy football league and make their most informed choices and argue each week?”— Brit
“I had two laptops and four browsers to defy the bot detection. It was all me though, no bots. I got all the seats I wanted. So take that, agents, take that, agents.”— Jessica
“What happens when all the AIs just win all of the fantasy football leagues? Then what?”— Dave

Suggested tweets

Brit Morin's next big idea: put your AI agent in your fantasy football league and let it argue strategy with the others. Then what happens when the AIs just... win every league?

Jess beat the Indian Wells ticket bots with two laptops and four browsers by hand. Her take: "Take that, agents." Is doing it yourself still a flex in 2026?
