Speaker 2: hundred and fifty. Was you put down the allotment and

101
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: then you work your way towards that. Now that was

102
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 2: a starting point.

103
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: It was like they were basically saying, it's gonna be

104
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: three fifty yes each each, three fifty each.

105
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 2: We said, we're working on a company. Uh, I haven't

Speaker 2: joining that? You can't? You know? You know what my

109
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,360

Speaker 2: I saw you. Yes. I don't play around, no doubt

111
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 2: about it. Keep trying and they locked me out. I

112
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 2: gotta figure it out, all right, Let let's go here. Yeah,

113
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 2: some uh we talked about yesterday. Folks like to gamble. Yes,

114
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 2: And by folks, I don't just mean the average Joe. No,

115
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: I'm talking about the players as well, and different sports.

116
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: So we got another thing, right, makele League Baseball. Lewis

117
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: Ortiz is a picture for the Cleveland Guardian.

118
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 2: Correct, and he's under investigation by Major League Baseball after

119
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 2: betting integrity firm they had flagged a pair of pitches. Now,

120
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 2: this is what makes this very very interesting, and it

121
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,119
Speaker 2: goes back to a conversation that we had about Malige Beasy,

122
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: which I'm sure we'll get to here again. So essentially

123
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 2: they were alerted about a couple of days when he

124
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: was pitching, and this was back in June, and the

125
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: sportsbook operations I see three sixty they sent that alert

126
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 2: to the MLB. It was called a non disciplinary paid league,

127
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 2: which is he is on now. This alert because came

128
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 2: because of a couple of innings back of June fifteenth,

129
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: rob against the Mariners and June twenty seventh against the Cardinals.

130
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 2: Now on the bottom of the second inning against the Mariners,

131
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: top of the third. Essentially, he threw a first pitch

132
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: that day, Dean. It was a slider in Adene that

133
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: was well outside of the strike zone. It was too

134
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: wild and it had too much movement, and they were like, hm,

135
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 2: So that was the first one. They watched everything right,

136
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 2: I want I want you to know, like and then

137
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 2: it happened again and they said there was another time

138
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 2: as the first pitch it was early and it was

139
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 2: wild and it was it had too much action.

140
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: Well, that's because people can bet on the first pitch

141
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: of the game where it is to strike or a ball,

142
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: so they're feeling like he's really intentionally trying to miss

143
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: right the pitch. That's what they're alleging, which to me

144
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: is really hard to prove because.

145
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 2: The ball go ahead.

146
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: Because this is where it gets interesting. But I just

147
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: think it's really that like that is too hard to prove.

148
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: It's the same thing when you're doing these prop bets

149
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: and you're talking about how many three pointers? Right, I'm

150
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: just saying, like, okay, today I'm averaging eleven, but tonight

151
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: I had eight. Maybe people were in my face, maybe

152
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: I didn't feel comfortable. Lad, I stepped up, like you

153
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: come up with everything to make this thing work.

154
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 2: Here's where I want to go.

155
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: And I'm not even I'm not even like kidding myself

156
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,679
Speaker 1: saying pro sports is going to back away from gambling

157
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: because oh my god, look at what's gonna happen.

158
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: The money's there, the chest has been opened.

159
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: They're not putting the toothpaste back in the too two Okay,

160
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: it ain't happening.

161
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 2: It's out.

162
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: They want all that money, bring it on, and if

163
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: they got to sacrifice players along the way, they'll just

164
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: do that. Your banned, your ban, But the money train

165
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: keeps rolling. We'll ban everybody if we have to, but

166
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: we're going to take the money from the gamblers and

167
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: the gambling houses. Here's my solution, and it's just a partial.

168
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: Stop the prop bets. Stop the bets where players can

169
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: really impact whether you win or lose on these things

170
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 1: and they can be conscious of it.

171
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 2: Take those away.

172
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 1: If you just want to do the point spreads and

173
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: do the games, you know what I mean, where you

174
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: gotta do a lot more. But the idea, especially in basketball,

175
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go there, and even the baseball you just

176
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: saw the first pitch a ball or strike is fifty

177
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: to fifty right, And then you're gonna come down on

178
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: the guy and say the picture was too outside or

179
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: too wild.

180
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 2: You must be you know, got gambling. Did you bet

181
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 2: on it?

182
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 3: You know?

183
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 2: Like what are you asking?

184
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 1: So I think if the sports and the Union should

185
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: come together and say we can't tempt it.

186
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 2: They're tempting everybody. You can't have it all in the ballpark.

187
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: When I go to National Park in DC, the betting

188
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: place is like attached, you know, like it's right there.

189
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: Literally I walk out of the I don't know if

190
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: it's BETMGM or what I can't remember, but you walk

191
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: out of it and you walk right into the stadium

192
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: like it's right next to it.

193
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 2: So you can't invite everybody to be a part of this.

194
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: It's all on the television, it's all on billboards and

195
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: all over the arena in the stadium. And then tell

196
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 1: a player not you, everybody else not you, and I

197
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: get it, you're playing. You shouldn't be betting on the sport.

198
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: We saw what happened to Pete Rose his career. But

199
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: I think the prop bets have to go. That's where

200
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 1: the league can actually do something to not put players

201
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: in harms.

202
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 2: Way I unfortunately, I have to agree the prop bets

203
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: is what makes this difficult. And I'm gonna elaborate on

204
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 2: a couple of reasons why. Number one, you just talked

205
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 2: about how tempting it is. It's pervasive, it's everywhere. And

206
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 2: if you are a younger person, I'm in a hybrid age. I'm,

207
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 2: you know, younger than you, but I'm older than the

208
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 2: Shades and Alex and the Martins, So I'm older than

209
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 2: I'm older than you. So I remember when it felt taboo, right,

210
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 2: it still felt weird, like ooh, the gambling don't talk

211
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 2: about it. It's like this hitting. We all know what's happening,

212
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 2: but it's happening over there, and we do do that.

213
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 2: But now it's everywhere and it looks fun and it

214
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 2: looks tempting. And they got all the young rappers and

215
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 2: all the Prize Pick commercials, and they got all the

216
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 2: rappers and influencers. I was listening to Joe Buden podcast

217
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 2: driving in and they have a whole segment where they

218
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 2: stopped the show to go It's top for Prize Pigs,

219
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 2: and they do a whole prize mix thing. And my

220
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 2: point is, it sounds fun, it sounds alluring, it's tempting.

221
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 2: It's easier than ever. I don't have to call us bookie,

222
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 2: I don't have to go to Atlantic City, your Vegas.

223
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 2: It's on your phone. It's easy. It's colorful, and it

224
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: looks like a game, looks like a video game. So

225
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,719
Speaker 2: it's real. It's real easy. This is not sleazy going on.

226
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 2: That's what I know exactly. Whisper in the back, Hello,

227
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,599
Speaker 2: sitting there heater with the family. When I used to

228
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: bet in the old days. Hello, Goldilocks, this is Papa Bear.

229
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. Right, I want two cups

230
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 2: of porridge onto this. You're like, you know what I mean?

231
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 2: This isn't that dude, You're sitting at dinner looking your

232
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 2: wife for kids in the in the face like, yeah,

233
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 2: that's crazy. And you can put seven bucks here, twelve

234
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,719
Speaker 2: bucks here, twenty bucks there. So that's why I think

235
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 2: there's some issues. Uh and and and then Rob, I

236
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,839
Speaker 2: was looking at some of these numbers and Martin just

237
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 2: sent me.

238
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: To thinking I was right, betam GM is at Now

239
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: that's what it is. I couldn't remember exactly, but I

240
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 1: know it was close.

241
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 2: So look at look at listen to these numbers, Rob,

242
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 2: do you want to know how much sports betting around

243
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 2: the thirty three marketers that actually reported made just about

244
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 2: generating before we get thatched revenue just generated one hundred

245
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 2: and forty nine billion dollars, I believe. And you know

246
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 2: what's the other thing is, which is crazy is.

247
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: Sixty five percent of popularly and doesn't bet, I know,

248
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: which means you know what I mean, like that smaller

249
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: going on?

250
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 2: You know that? Am I like that?

251
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: Like you think everybody's betting now, there's plenty of people

252
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: who've never bet and won't bet.

253
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 2: So of that one hundred and forty nine billion, they

254
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: brought in a fourteen billion in revenue. So that's what

255
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 2: they made. And this number represents the growth. Twenty twenty

256
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 2: five is on pace to shatter to twenty twenty four mark,

257
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: which was huge.

258
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: What's crazy is I saw this too. New York has

259
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: surpassed Vegas.

260
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 2: Did you know that?

261
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: You look at it as far as revenue of gambling,

262
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: New York is the king, and you know why not Vegas?

263
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 2: Then you know why because we already know there's like

264
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 2: thirty million people in the metro area or whatever you go.

265
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 2: You just said, and if I just have to go

266
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 2: on my phone and go, yo, the Knicks are going

267
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 2: to I'll take that. I'll take this, and Jalen Brunst

268
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 2: is going to do that. That's why. And it's just

269
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:03,959
Speaker 2: a sheer number game. So that's why I don't think

270
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 2: we both agree it's not going anywhere. And prop bets

271
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 2: is the only option because that's the one that's alluring,

272
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 2: that's the one, and that's the one that you can

273
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 2: control as a player and as a league or investigators.

274
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 2: I can't fully get you on because you do shoot

275
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 2: a lot of threes. You know you guys do that

276
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: was a wild pitch, and hey, wild pitches happen. Pat Hey, okay,

277
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 2: he threw twenty two attempts this quarterback. I mean they

278
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 2: were down, they needed to throw some attempts. It gets

279
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 2: too difficult. Only reason why I think this will become

280
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 2: more of a thing is if if you remember Malcolm

281
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 2: Gladwell's book The Tipping Point, If there's a tipping point

282
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 2: where too many nineteen to twenty five year olds are

283
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: ruining their lives and like going to jail and just

284
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: craziness having is a tipping point, then I think maybe

285
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 2: there's some legislation that government tries to pass or something,

286
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 2: and or if am I raise it to twenty one

287
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 2: or right, and I don't think it'll ever go away.

288
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 4: We know that.

289
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: But it's like alcohol. We said the exact same time.

290
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 2: It's like the prohibitionion all right, right, well, all right,

291
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 2: it ain't going to where here last point too, unless

292
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 2: it's a megastar you name it the tiger Woods of

293
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 2: of of an era. It's just it's because if it

294
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: he's being middling player, like guys you barely know John

295
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 2: Tay Porter, Michael Porter Jr.

296
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of stars that have have that

297
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: been involved in the past. I mean, we just talked

298
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: about one of the greatest baseball players ruined his whole

299
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: legacy in life over gambling.

300
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 2: He couldn't stop caught him. But I think that's why

301
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: I played a role. It was so taboo because you

302
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 2: immediately thought him right. And the more they make it

303
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 2: cool and fun, he got Kevin Hart doing commercials.

304
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: And but here's the other thing too. When we mentioned

305
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: this yesterday a little bit, and I do believe it.

306
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: If you're a player and you don't want to try

307
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: to giving your family money or whatever, you can't tell me, dude,

308
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: I'm only gonna shoot. I'm gonna be under. It's an

309
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: eight freet three point attempt.

310
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 2: That's so easy to control. I'm not gonna that's easy.

311

374
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 2: some of this gambling that is happening within these leagues?

375
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 2: Last few days we heard about Maligue Beasley. You know,

376
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 2: we had h and obviously now we have this happening

377
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 2: with the LUIS and MLB. So where are you? How

378
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 2: do we fix the prop betting, the any betting? We say,

379
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 2: get rid of prop betting. Rob propose that idea eight

380
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: seven seven ninety nine. On the five, I say, maybe

381
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 2: you yourself are big into it, and you say, hey, man,

382
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,480

00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 2: We're good.

Speaker 4: Mary.

388
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 8: Listen right here, Rob. I have to say I agree

389
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 8: with you, but there's nothing we can do about it.

390
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 8: I agree with you. They should get rid of the

391
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 8: prop betting.

392
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 4: It's too easy. It's going to cause a problem.

393
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 2: It help.

394
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 4: You can just see it coming.

395
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 8: But with that being said, what did you say, one

396
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 8: hundred and sixty two billion dollars profit one.

397
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 2: Hundred and forty No, no, one hundred and forty nine billion,

398
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 2: eight and that they generate and for fourteen inion, yeah,

399
00:18:59,359 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 2: fourteen million.

400
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 4: Let me tell you something. We know these owners and

401
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 4: one thing they worship is money.

402
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 8: They never giving that money back. They would these players

403
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 8: go to jail before they get that money back.

404
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 4: Then I hear. My problem is this, dude, If you

405
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 4: think this is a problem with the players, and it is,

406
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 4: I don't care what they say.

407
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 8: We've already had this happen. It's just a matter of

408
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 8: time before one of these, one of these officials, one

409
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 8: of these sports to get involved.

410
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 2: No good point, No, no, no, I'm with you. Good point.

411
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,199
Speaker 1: They're around this and they know what's going on, and

412
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: they're like, man, I can make some money off of.

413
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 4: This, and they're human.

414
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 8: I don't care what they say and that much money

415
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 8: about how eadiot is to hit that button any time,

416
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 8: any place, it's gonna happen.

417
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 2: That's a good point, I mean, And it's just you know,

418
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:48,360
Speaker 2: there was a scandal in Detroit where the timekeeper, oh yeah,

419
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,919
Speaker 2: was delaying when they started a clock. So all the

420
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 2: games that Vegas started to notice the Detroit games were

421
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 2: running longer, which would give people more time, you know

422
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 2: what I mean, So that the game over right because

423
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 2: there was more time. He just delayed the start of

424
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 2: the clock. You do that forty fifty times in a game.

425
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 2: You got an extra two minutes. There you go in time. Yep.

426
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 2: And that's what exactly happened. That's extra shots, it's extra three,

427
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 2: it's extra everything. Point all that, man, Mark, Thanks for

428
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 2: the call, Aaron in Wisconsin. You're in the odd couple

429
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. What's up Aeron?

430
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 9: Hey, thanks a lot for taking my call. Yes, sir,

431
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 9: I just wanted to chime in about this. You know,

432
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 9: we can't hardly watch a sports event without seeing an

433
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:39,199
Speaker 9: ads for vetting app. We can't tune into sports radio

434
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 9: without hearing bumps advertising sports apps. I mean, I try

435
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 9: to watch Brewer games. They were bought out by fan Duel,

436
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 9: so all the games are on the fan Duel networks.

437
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 9: FanDuel is a sponsor of a lot of these networks

438
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 9: and bet MGM and whatnot. So I guess my question

439
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 9: is is like it seems like these as these betting

440
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 9: apps kind of own the sports in a way, And

441
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 9: what y'all's responsibility might be as working for networks that

442
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 9: are have mean sponsors that are these betting apps.

443
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 2: No, yeah, it's a dual led sword. There's no doubt

444
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 2: about it.

445
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: They're advertisers, right, our businesses that we get advertising, and

446
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: we're not gonna if it's an ellege.

447
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 2: It's legal, it's not illegal, it's legal.

448
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 1: So I don't look at the media partners as much

449
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: as the leagues because that's where the players to me,

450
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 1: and they have enough power to.

451
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 2: Say no prop bets. They do.

452
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: You can't tell me the NBA say we're gonna be partners,

453
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: but we can't have prop bets because this is an

454
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: issue for our players and it puts them in a

455
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,919
Speaker 1: bad spot if we don't have prop bets. Were much better,

456
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: But I know that you know with all the money

457
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: that these uh people are given the leagues, they're gonna

458
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: want to push back to you know what I mean,

459
00:21:58,200 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 1: we're gonna do that, all right, Well give us back

460
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: thirty percent of the money we're giving you.

461
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 2: Oh hold on, and you're right, man. It's so hard

462
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 2: because thanks for the play, Thank you, Aaron. Players hear

463
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 2: it like you're shooting three and they here only need

464
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 2: one more. And now it's subconscious even if you're not

465
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,680

Speaker 2: somebody screams at is that an investigation? Someone screams that

468
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,480

519
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to hear what he said, you know,

520
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 1: and I get you know, coming from Vegas and you know,

521
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: we bet MGM. I'm sure that they don't want to

522
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: hear about that. But something that's got to be done.

523
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,239
Speaker 1: And I guess you could just keep banning everybody, is that,

524
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,119

525

00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 2: to and the reps. I mean, it just it keeps happening,

528
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 2: and it's happening. By the way, I thought. I thought

529
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 2: it was interesting they dropped the Terry Rozier investigation right

530
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 2: as of League B. He becomes a story there. Drop

531
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: that Terry Rose here so that it doesn't look like

532
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: you got two guys in the NBA having these issues.

535

Speaker 2: noon Eastern Time. Jared, what's up, man, what's happening? Oh man,

536
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 2: busy week?

537
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 11: I guess a bad news. But also I do think

538
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 11: there are some silver linings with all these gambling scandals

539
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 11: that are happening.

540
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: I just my first thought Kelvin and I were just

541
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 1: talking about, is you know the prop bets.

542
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 2: I think, Jared, they're too easy and you can if you.

543
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: Want to help out family and friends and tip people off,

544
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 1: you know, you could do it, you know, pretty easily. Now,

545
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: and this ortiz the picture, Yeah, I mean really, they're

546
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 1: looking at two first pitches in a game and saying

547
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: that you know.

548
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 2: They were too wild or too much action, do you

549
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:56,439
Speaker 2: know what I mean?

550
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: And if I'm I don't want to give I'm a

551
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: basketball player. I don't want to give my family money.

552
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: And I say, hey, uh tonight, my I don't know

553
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: if I've got the long distance on the three attempts,

554
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: so I might not. I might be under tonight. I'm

555
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: just saying, probably won't get up eight three pointers tonight.

556
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 2: That's pretty easy, don't you think it is?

557
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 11: And I think with the baseball one first, so these

558
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 11: and they're called micro bets, right, like just insanely small

559
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 11: sample size bets one pitch the first pitch.

560
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 2: Which is crazy, don't you think it is? But but

561
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 2: here's the thing.

562
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 11: So if this was like, if we didn't have and

563
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 11: this is the take that I've heard all week, oh well,

564
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 11: you know, legalized betting is the source of this. If

565
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 11: we didn't have the legalized markets, we wouldn't have the

566
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 11: integrity firms like IC three sixty, which is monitoring these markets.

567
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 11: And then all of a sudden, an insane because usually

568
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 11: nobody bets these markets, and then all of a sudden

569
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 11: they get twenty thousand, fifty thousand on this one small

570
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 11: micro bet, it kind of tips off, like so in essence,

571
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 11: it's like, you know what came first, chicken or the egg.

572
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 11: If we didn't have legalized gambling, you couldn't bet on

573
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 11: the prop bets. But if we didn't have these legalized markets,

574
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 11: they could be doing this in other ways under the table,

575
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 11: black market, offshore, and we would have no way to

576
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 11: catch the bad actors. So I'm kind of torn on

577
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 11: it because I do I agree with you, Rob, like

578
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 11: I think we're kind of off the deep end with

579
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 11: these prop bets, and especially for a starting pitcher, very

580
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 11: easy to manipulate. But then on the other end, if

581
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 11: we didn't have these markets, we wouldn't be able to

582
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 11: catch these criminals.

583
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 2: So it's a really really slippery.

584
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 1: Well don't you think And let me just say this,

585
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 1: I understand that's how the player with the raptors got

586
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: caught right, exactly right, and he got caught because there

587
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 1: was an unusual anown of money bet on him for

588
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: a guy who's not a you know what I mean, Like.

589
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 2: Why is this so much money? Read it's an alarm exactly.

590
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: And in my case here if obviously, if you go

591
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: run to the window with twenty thousand or whatever, and

592
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: people going to look at it and go, well, where

593
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: did this money come from? But if you spread it out,

594
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: you know, and other places, that's the big thing.

595
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 2: You can make it that obvious because those watch the money.

596
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,719
Speaker 11: If he wouldn't have been as greedy. For example, if

597
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 11: forties does this for a grand in April, then a

598
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 11: grand in May, grand in June, he probably gets away

599
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:12,679
Speaker 11: with it.

600
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 3: But you know, rob people.

601
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 2: Are greedy, right well, I mean, and thereon lies the

602
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: issue people. This is the thing Jared too. People don't

603
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 2: like those oh a man's professor, Anthony. Even if you're

604
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 2: not making lebron or have a whole money what a

605
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: lot of these guys aren't making as much as you think.

606
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 2: And then it's spread around between agents and family and this,

607
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 2: and it ends up and you start getting in like

608
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 2: Malik Beasley and then the dentist thirty who this person

609
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 2: the barber of dentists, And you get stuck in a

610
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 2: hole trying to keep trying to get out of that hole.

611
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 2: But let's say all of a sudden I pulled you

612
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 2: up at one of those legislation on town hall meetings

613
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 2: or something, and I and I ask you sell me on.

614
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 2: Why give me another reason why this is this is fine?

615
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 2: And why having advertisements at every games, on all the

616
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 2: billboards and even some of the naming rights of buildings,

617
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 2: why it's so okay? Tell me why this should just

618
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 2: be fine?

619
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 4: Uh?

620
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 2: And what we've kind of changed to over the last

621
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 2: six or seven years versus what we were prior to that,

622
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 2: where it was a little bit more hush us and taboo.

623
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 2: That's fair.

624
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 11: I think you're getting an audience that maybe for example,

625
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,719
Speaker 11: the WNBA. Do you know how many people watch the

626
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 11: WNBA because they bet on the games. It's a lot

627
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 11: more than the people who are actually fans.

628
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 2: I don't even doubt it.

629
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 4: That's right.

630
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 11: You're bringing in an audience, right. If we're trying to

631
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 11: attract and grow the game, it's hard to do that

632
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 11: because for the most part, we've already kind of tapped

633
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 11: into all of the markets and the sources of people

634
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 11: who are gonna watch. But now you're bringing in this

635
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 11: casual better who wants to make a few bucks on

636
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 11: the game, and it's a different audience that you're bringing in.

637
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 4: Now.

638
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 11: There's problems there too, because we have herasic Like you know,

639
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 11: gamblers are harassing players after, you know, losing prop bets.

640
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 11: I'm not in favor of that. I mean, there's bad

641
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 11: actors on both sides of it, but you're also bringing

642
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 11: in another audience that might watch the game and be like,

643
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 11: oh wow, I really like this and then become a fan.

644
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 11: So I think think again, anytime you have gambling, there's

645
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 11: always going to be people trying to take advantage of

646
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 11: the system. That's always going to happen. But I do

647
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 11: think the regulated markets are allowing us to weed out

648
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 11: some of these bad actors a little bit more than

649
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 11: we would if it was all offshore, all black market,

650
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 11: all under the table.

651
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 2: Well, shoot, what are some of the is it all?

652
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 2: Kaitlin Clark like, what are the w n B A bets?

653
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 2: You often see a.

654
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 11: Lot of prop bets, a lot of bets on on

655
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 11: the fever games and and prop bets.

656
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 2: To your point, Couvin, like that's been the big one.

657
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 2: Shut Angel reached forty offensive rebounds. Well, I'm pretty sure,

658
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 2: I'll be honest. I gave Andrel a lot of credit.

659
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 11: She leaned into that me bounce thing, and that's how

660
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 11: you attack those you know, the.

661
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:44,239
Speaker 1: Count you shouldn't be able to get on rebounds right

662
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 1: now on nine misses. You know what I mean, You've

663
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: got nine rebounds on nine missus point blank.

664
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 2: Kind of crazy, uh, the Malik Beasley, It's just like.

665
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: You said, it's one of those weeks where a lot

666
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: of these stories are happening. Do you expect I mean,

667
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: I'll talk about Pete Rose all the time because it

668
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: was very obvious back in those days. You know how

669
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: taboo gambling was, and he couldn't stop, He really couldn't stop.

670
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: Do you expect to see some big names get caught

671
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 1: up in this? You know, we got some not big names,

672
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: but could there be a chance.

673
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 11: There's always a chance because you just don't know what

674
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 11: kind of financial situations these guys are in. But I

675
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 11: think the higher up the ladder you go, the harder

676
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 11: it is to get down big money on these bets, because,

677
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 11: as you see, Luis Ortiz tried and failed, right So,

678
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 11: I think because it's hard to get down significant money,

679
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 11: and to these players, significant money is fifty grand, hundred grand.

680
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 11: It is hard to get down that much money on

681
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 11: one particular bet, and you have to be incredibly calculated.

682
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 11: You have to know exactly where the loopholes are you

683
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 11: have to spread the money out.

684
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 2: You can't be greedy. You can't. You know, you got

685
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 2: to go to tech players. You can't. It's really hard

686
00:31:58,640 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 2: to do.

687
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 11: And I think also the big deterrent is there's so

688
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 11: much money in other areas, endorsements, things that you know,

689
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 11: players can take advantage of these days, you know, social

690
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 11: media type stuff to where they can get paid in

691
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 11: a legal way.

692
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 2: I don't.

693
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 11: I'm not gonna rule it out, because anything's possible, rob

694
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 11: but I think it's it's a slippery slope, and the

695
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 11: higher up the pay scale you go, the less incentive

696
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 11: there is because it's just really hard to get down

697
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 11: that much money.

698
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, we well on the other side of this, just

699
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 2: actually maybe what actually has happened right now one more

700
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 2: quick one with the NBA right now because we just

701
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 2: have of course, some the guys are getting signed. Who's

702
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 2: the team right now that's looking like a lot of

703
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 2: money's going on them? Is it the Rockets? Is it

704
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 2: the the Knicks? Maybe in the East? Is it the

705
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 2: Thunder Again?

706
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 11: I've seen some money come in on the Hawks. I

707
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 11: really like what Atlanta did and I think obviously Kristaps

708
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 11: Porzingis doesn't necessarily move the needle, but you do have now,

709
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 11: especially considering that they've got a bright future, and maybe

710
00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 11: this is more for next year if they get the

711
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 11: Pelicans pick and the Pelicans tank and they'll end up

712
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 11: getting that you know, lottery pick from New Orleans. But

713
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 11: I think the Eastern Conference right now, Calvin, because of

714
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 11: how wide open it is, is more of a breeding

715
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 11: ground for some of these bets. A lot of people

716
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 11: like the Magic, a lot of people like the Hawks.

717
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 11: I haven't seen much movement on the Knicks after they're

718
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 11: coaching higher. I'm sure you guys have debated that over

719
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 11: the last couple of days.

720
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. I don't think it really moved

721
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 2: the needle too much, thank you.

722
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: I said they were going after Larry Brown and they

723
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: wind up with Charlie Brown.

724
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I might have preferred Dow Stalley. Frank,

725
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 2: I would have been funny.

726
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, I mean these make a splash, you got

727
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 11: if you're gonna fire Tom Tibodaux. Now, the one defense

728
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 11: I do have of Mike Brown, at least he's been

729
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 11: to the finals, whereas Tips hasn't quite been to that.

730
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 2: You said he I'm sorry he couldn't hear you you

731
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 2: said he was coaching Lebron? Would you say he was?

732
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 4: Yeah?

733
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 2: I could Ron.

734
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 11: Do you think there's a chance Lebron goes to New

735
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 11: York now that Mike Brown's there?

736
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 2: No, Yeah, I agree. I'd love to see.

737
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: It, but I just don't think he's going anywhere because

738
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: no one's gonna pay The Lakers aren't gonna pay him

739
00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: fifty three million dollars to bounce.

740
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's crazy.

741
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 11: And also, if you're a team, why are you giving

742
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 11: up assets for a one year fifty third?

743
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, you have to be. The Hornets would do

744
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 2: it because at least we're relevant for one year.

745
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 11: We got reletive up for the Hornets too. Honestly, they

746
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 11: build a nice little roster oute there in Charlo. That

747
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:13,720
Speaker 11: could be a fun team.

748
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,719
