1
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:05,520
Speaker 1: What is your problem. I've got a lot of problems.

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: When you'll think we have a problem, what's your.

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 2: Problem, I've got ninety nine problems on ninety three double TYPC.

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 3: I think we both have a problem today. But Jim,

5
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 3: what is your problem?

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: Here's here's my problem.

7
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 2: And usually when I've got the problem, I'm fired up,

8
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 2: I'm angry, I'm worked up about it. This is more

9
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 2: just depressing. All of my bets that I placed for

10
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,479
Speaker 2: March Madness have now officially lost. Oh no, I had money.

11
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 2: I had money on Duke, I had money on Purdue.

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 2: I took a couple of other teams after the tournament

13
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 2: started that I thought we're playing well, that may make

14
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 2: a way, you know, make their way to the final

15
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 2: four and maybe even win it all.

16
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: And they've all lost. So my problem is I have

17
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: two choices here.

18
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 2: I can reach into my DraftKings accounts and make more

19
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: bets since all the outstanding ones have already lost, or

20
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: I can go back to the Stone Ages and watch

21
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 2: the Final.

22
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: Four without betting on it. I'm really problem is I'm

23
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: struggling here. I don't know which is worse.

24
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: Shell it out more money for some Final four bets,

25
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: or watching it without any money riding on any of

26
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: the final four games at all.

27
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: I am honestly in a quandaryon.

28
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 3: You could just put a little bit of money on

29
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 3: it to make it interesting for you, not a lot,

30
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 3: just a little, right, But I think the harder part

31
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 3: here is who are you going to bet on? Because

32
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: you've got Arizona beating Purduce seventy nine to sixty four

33
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 3: in the Elite eight. So now we're left with Arizona, Michigan, Yukon,

34
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 3: and Illinois. So let's talk this through. These are your

35
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 3: final four Arizona, Michigan, Yukon, Illinois. Clearly we're not rooting

36
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 3: for Michigan.

37
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: Root for Michigan now never, No, not.

38
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 3: Going to happen. Clearly, you're not going to be rooting

39
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 3: for Yukon because they beat Duke, which was the team

40
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 3: that you had.

41
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 2: Picked, which I had all my money, like, all my

42
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 2: big bets were on Dull.

43
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 3: You don't you don't want to put money on Yukon.

44
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 3: So you're left with Arizona and Illinois. Arizona they make

45
00:01:59,120 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 3: it a.

46
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: Lot, They're always there, always.

47
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: There, So that's kind of like same story, different day.

48
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: I think we're left rooting for Illinois.

49
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 2: Now you're confusing two things here. It's who I'm rooting

50
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: for as like my enjoyment of the game and money

51
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: on who I physically will win and who I bet

52
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 2: on two completely different things. I may bet on Michigan.

53
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,959
Speaker 2: I hate Michigan. I never as a Notre Dame fan,

54
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 2: and I you fan Michigan. That's not gonna happen. But

55
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 2: I may end up having to put some money on

56
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: Michigan because Michigan. Look, Michigan looked really good against Tennessee

57
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 2: over the weekend.

58
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: That would be paidful. The other team I would bet

59
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: on would be Yukon. Those would be the two teams.

60
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 2: But who I would root for out of financial interest,

61
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 2: who I would root for would be Illinois at this

62
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 2: point because it's the only They're a big ten team,

63
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: and I can tolerate Illinois a lot more than I

64
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: can tolerate Illinois.

65
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 3: They're the fighting Alini, right correct, very good, very similar

66
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 3: to the fighting Irish.

67
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: So they've got the word fighting in their name, right.

68
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 2: They are Indiana borders with Illinois right now.

69
00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: I can pull for Illinois and all of this.

70
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 2: But but but I would my betting will I'll either

71
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 2: throw money on Michigan or Yukon. I haven't made up

72
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 2: my mind yet, and I need to look at the

73
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: betting lines and see where the money in.

74
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: That's about.

75
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 3: You can come home if you put money on Michigan,

76
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 3: So you better go with Yukon.

77
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: There.

78
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 2: Like I said, this is a business decision. You have

79
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: to set your personal biases aside.

80
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: This is a bus.

81
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 2: Who you bet on is a business decision, and you

82
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: set all of your personal preferences aside when you make

83
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 2: bets because those are business decisions.

84
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 3: You know that Ann Arbor is a woman of ill repute. Okay,

85
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 3: So let's hear from Matt Painter, head basketball coach of Purdue.

86
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 3: And here he is. He's talking about how impressed he

87
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 3: was with his team in the new era of college

88
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 3: basketball and college athletes. He's talking about what it's like

89
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 3: to live with the twenty four hour news cycle.

90
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 4: It's hard being on a team, and it's really hard

91
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 4: in today's world being on a team like I just

92
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: you know, for people when I played, for people to

93
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 4: bust her about something, you had to read the morning newspaper.

94
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 4: He had to wait till the next day to get

95
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 4: your gripped, you know. Today it's just twenty four to seven,

96
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 4: you know, and it's cool for us, like we're grown

97
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 4: and we're fifty and everything's good. They're twenty years old

98
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 4: and that's hard. And you're like, well, they make money now,

99
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 4: and they do all that. Man, it's hard. I don't

100
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 4: care if they make money. They don't make money, you know.

101
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 4: They it's a really really hard racket to get them

102
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 4: to knock out noise and play and sacrifice. And because

103
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 4: it's not perfect. It's a team sport, it's not perfect.

104
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 4: And those guys showed up every day and you know,

105
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 4: in battle, and they were company men. And that's what

106
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 4: you want, man. You want you want guys that you

107
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 4: know do right by Purdue. And not just in a

108
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 4: basketball sense.

109
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: It's like that in every aspect of your life.

110
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:41,239
Speaker 1: Though.

111
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 3: With the twenty four hour news cycle well as another element.

112
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: I get Matt Painter.

113
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 2: He's trying to defend his players and you know, have

114
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: their backs on everything. But look, these are no longer amateurs,

115
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: these are no longer student athletes. These are professional athletes.

116
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: They're paid.

117
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 2: They're all getting paid, many of them well in to

118
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 2: seven figures, and all of them six figures in UP.

119
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: I don't care if they're nineteen or they're twenty. They

120
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 2: are now professional athletes, and therefore you gotta deal with

121
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: all the stuff that professional athletes gotta deal with. You're

122
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: gonna hear nasty stuff from the fans social media when

123
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 2: you lose is going to be absolutely brutal. And at

124
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 2: the end of the day, you can dry your eyes

125
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 2: with one hundred dollars bills because you guys are making

126
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: a fortune play in this game. You're no longer amateurs,

127
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 2: you're no longer student athletes.

128
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 3: You're listening to ninety three WIBC
