1
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,799
Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up?

2
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: Straight fire, fam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight Fire for Friday,

3
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: February eleventh, The boy. There is no way to describe

4
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: what went down Thursday in the sports world then fire.

5
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. The NBA trade deadline for the first

6
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 1: time I don't know a decade fifteen years, was unbelievably crazy.

7
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: And all week we had said, oh, this is the usual.

8
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: You know, there's chatter and then nothing happens. There's all

9
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: this talk and then no action. All talk, no action. Well,

10
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: the team stepped up and it got chaotic. Um. The

11
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 1: one team, of course, that felt like it needed to

12
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 1: make a trade but did not, was the Lakers. They've

13
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: lost six of eight. Apparently they had a Westbrook for

14
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: John waldial trade that was offered to them and they

15
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: did not take it. I'll tell you why in a

16
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: little bit, but I do want to preface everything by saying,

17
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: this is Super Bowl weekend. I unloaded on profits. Um,

18
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: I I'll talk. I'll tell you all the profits in

19
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: a little bit. We'll do NBA first, but there are

20
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: a lot of profits that I laid obviously, you guys

21
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: know I have future tickets on the Rams. I'll be

22
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: wearing a Rams uh jersey first half Rams T shirt,

23
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: second half Rams had you name it? Um, I'm loaded up.

24
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 1: I'm rooting Rams. Sorry to the Bengals fans listening, Um,

25
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: I'm invested. I'm rooting for my wallet. Will get to

26
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: football shortly, but I have to start n b A.

27
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: I know people aren't gonna be like, I'll come on football, football, football.

28
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: I get it. It's Super Bowl weak. But did you

29
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: see what happened in the NBA? How could you not?

30
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: Christaps porzingis not not leading with porzingis by the way,

31
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: that's a big, big trait MAVs unloading porzingis. But we

32
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: have to start with Ben Simmons for Harden. And there

33
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: are so many tentacles to this deal it. I mean,

34
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: it's enormous. There's no way around it. I do. I

35
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: think the big winners here in order are number one,

36
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons. And I know you're gonna got guys are

37
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: gonna say, oh, Jay, you're just keeping up for Simmons.

38
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,919
Speaker 1: You love him, You've talked about your fandom for Ben Simmons.

39
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: I get I get it. Um, here's the deal, Ben

40
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: Simmons after what went down in that Hawks playoff series,

41
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: essentially said I'm never playing for them again, and he didn't,

42
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: and he got traded to a team with Kevin Durant. Okay,

43
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: this is a star league. The stars get what they want,

44
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: they get out, they get to landing spots. It happens.

45
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: We've seen this at nauseam. So you guys can rip

46
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: Ben Davis. He saw Ben Simmons. He's soft. He don't

47
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: want it. Uh, he's a baby. Blah blah blah. He

48
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: said he wanted out. He got out and he landed

49
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: alongside Kevin Durant. Not a bad tree for Ben Simmons,

50
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,119
Speaker 1: second biggest winner. I gotta give him props. I bash

51
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: him a lot. Darryl Morey, well done. Everybody's saying, Daryl, Hey, listen,

52
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: you gotta unload Simmons. You gotta get whatever you can take.

53
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: C J. McCollum, take anybody you can take, buddy, He'll

54
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: take a package around one of those guys. Get whatever

55
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: you can. Darryl Moore, he said no, he was steadfast.

56
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: Darryl Morey waited, and he waited a little longer, and

57
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: he kind of backed the nets into a corner and

58
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: got James Harden to have his back, And next thing

59
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: you know, James Harden is on the Sixers. I don't

60
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: think the Sixers are the greatest team ever there are

61
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: they good? Yeah, of course they're good. Top five and

62
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: the East for sure. I don't think the top three

63
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: in the East. And we'll get to that shortly. But

64
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: the biggest winner Ben Simmons, the second biggest winner Daryl Morey,

65
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: and I think the biggest loser and all this, and

66
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: this is gonna sound harsh, is has to be James Harden.

67
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: We're talking about a guy who complained in Houston. I'm

68
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: ready to be out of here. Ship me. He gets

69
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: traded to Brooklyn. He plays all of sixteen games with

70
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: Kyrie and KD. The wheels come off this year, He's disinterested.

71
00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: Trade me this. This feels like James Harden's last day.

72
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: This is it for James Harden. Think about this. He

73
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: was in Houston. They gave him Dwight Howard, who was

74
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: maybe not his prime, but like on the back end

75
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: of his prime. Remember Dwight Howard was like m VP

76
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: candidate All NBA First Team Like Dwight Howard was incredible

77
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: earlier in his career, James Harden and Dwight Howard did

78
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: not work out. Then they got Chris Paul after a

79
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: couple of years that didn't quite work out, although that

80
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: was probably the best Rockets team, best James Harden team ever.

81
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: They remember they pushed the Katie Curry Warriors. Um so

82
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: James Harden had Dwight Howard Chris Paul, those are two

83
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 1: future Hall of famers, and then he got Russell Westbrook,

84
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: also a future Hall of Famer. That did not work

85
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:50,679
Speaker 1: out ended ugly. Next up, James Harden gets Kadi and Kyrie,

86
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: and this is where it's like, Okay, Katie's hurt, Kyrie's hurt.

87
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 1: They only play six team games together. Not a total

88
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: great situation, but what happened with Kyrie being unvaccinated not

89
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: being able to play like Harden now comes off looking like,

90
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I want everything and I want what's the

91
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: saying my dad loves to say, I want, you want

92
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: your cake and you want to eat it too? Well, yeah,

93
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: of course I do. But if you're James Harden and

94
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: you keep doing that over and over and over again,

95
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: at some point, it's like, Yo, We've tried everything. Is

96
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: he ever going to be happy. Is it ever gonna

97
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: work out for James Harden? How many future Hall of

98
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: Famers can you pair him with before we realize? Boy,

99
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: maybe the problems James Harden, not everybody else. And frankly, folks,

100
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: I don't know how it's gonna work with Joel Embiid.

101
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: Think about this. The best Harden has ever been was

102
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: when he was the m v P in Houston and

103
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: he had a rim running center pick and roll Capella

104
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: hardened Chris Paul Like that was the squad Joel, and

105
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: he ain't no rim runner. Joel Embiad has let it

106
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: be known. He's the Alpha. He wants the ball. The

107
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: offense goes through him. He could not deal with the

108
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 1: offense going through Ben Simmons. The Jimmy Butler stuff did

109
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: not work. Like Joel Embiad is a little sensitive and

110
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: he really thinks highly of himself, as he should. He's

111
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 1: super talented. But this reality that all of a sudden,

112
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: Joel Embiad, because he's got James Harden, is gonna magically

113
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: work and they're gonna totally dominate the league and wreck everything.

114
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: I think you guys have another thing coming, and that's

115
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: not hating all the Sixers fans, that's just reality. This

116
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: is the last stop for Harden. The pressure will be on.

117
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: He's got a good young player in Tyrese Maxi breathing

118
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: breathing down his neck. He's got someone who actually plays

119
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: defensive matist, tibel Um. We can no longer blame Tobias Harris. Right,

120
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 1: Tobias Harris was that he's a great number three, but

121
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: the pressures on the number two, and we saw Ben

122
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: Simmons not really handle the pressure. Well. I I'm dubious

123
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: that this is gonna work for the Sixers, but as

124
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: we saw with the Cincinnati Bengals in the NFL, the

125
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: right playoff draw, anything could happen. Sexers, of course, could

126
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: get to the finals. I don't think they will. I think,

127
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: without question, the heat are better. I think the nets

128
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: are better. I think the Bucks are better. And I

129
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: can't commit to the Bulls yet. Um. I think the

130
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: Celtics made a sneaky good pickup of Derek White. Um

131
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: is he gonna put them over the top. I don't know,

132
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: but I'll tell you right now. Uh, these Celtics are

133
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: much better on the wing than the Sixers, and we

134
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: know the wing is usually dominant in the playoffs. Now

135
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: can they handle him bead We'll see they've historically struggled

136
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: against centers. Um. But I think the Brooklyn Nets clearly

137
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: won the trade. I don't. I haven't heard anybody who

138
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: thinks the Sixers WI won the deal. I mean, we're

139
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: talking about a Brooklyn Nets team. If Joe Harris comes

140
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: back ankle surgery will see, you can put on the

141
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: floor Ben Simmons, Kevin Durant, and if Simmons is in

142
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: the Draymond Green rule, Kevin Durant can then playing and

143
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: be the incredible defender he was in Golden State because

144
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: he knows he's got Ben Simmons behind him. And then

145
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: you toss in, oh, I've got Joe Harris spotting up,

146
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: I've got Seth Curry spotting up, and oh yeah, yeah,

147
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: we we we kind of sort of do. Have this

148
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: guy named Kyrie Irving only in road games, obviously, But

149
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: you're telling me that that's not an incredible collection of

150
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: talent for for for the Brooklyn Nets. I mean, folks,

151
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: Joe Harris one of the best shooters in the league,

152
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: Seth Curry one of the best shooters in the league,

153
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: and Kevin Durant, freaking Kevin Durant. Come on, and I'm

154
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: just telling you right now, this team is there's gonna

155
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: be light out now. The question is can they get healthy?

156
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: And you know the obviously Drummond is a help. Um,

157
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a huge factor. We we saw

158
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: he was okay at times. Um with the Sixers, he's

159
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: solid backup. Um. You know Nick Claxton's in there. They

160
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: got Patty I forgot Patty Mills is a gunner. This

161
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: is a This is a strong offensive team for the Nets.

162
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: They will outscore you. Can it get stops? I don't know.

163
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if they can get stops. We'll see

164
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: because you know there's an offensive league, but in the playoffs,

165
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: defense rules, So can they get enough stops in the

166
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: postseason to supplement that offense. We'll see Ben Simmons, an

167
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: elite defender, can guard all five positions, Folks, Ben Simmons

168
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: against duel and be in the playoffs because they're not

169
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: putting k D on it. That's obvious. That to me

170
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. So this is shaping up as

171
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: just one of these incredible playoff runs you rarely see.

172
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: I saw the word unprecedented throwing around, and I had said, remember,

173
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: there's no chance or hardened for Simmons in the division.

174
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 1: No chance, folks. This was an unprecedented deal of a

175
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 1: list stars. Regardless of what you think about Ben Simmons,

176
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: regardless of what you think about Harden. Right now, they

177
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: are a listers, their top twenty players in the league,

178
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: even though Simmons hasn't played a minute this season. That's obvious.

179
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: And for that to happen in the division, I mean,

180
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: that is bananas. We've never seen anything like this. UM.

181
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: I personally am stunned that Katie, Harden and Kyrie played

182
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: just six team games together. That's just That's kind of sad,

183
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: isn't it. It's just like, man, this is what's supposed

184
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: to be one of the best teams ever and they

185
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: basically got knocked out in the second round because Kyrie

186
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: got hurt again. K D had his toe on the

187
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,119
Speaker 1: line against the Bucks, and it's just they got eliminated.

188
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: You know. So I'm bullish on the nets. I'm not

189
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: as bullish on the sixers, obviously, you guys know, I

190
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: like the heat. I have futures bets on the heat

191
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: from UM in the preseason. Uh, and obviously the Bucks

192
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: are gonna be there. Fox Sports Radio has the best

Speaker 1: live quickly this Lakers offer, According to Chris Haynes, the

197
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: Lakers were offered John Wall for Russell Westbrook, just tackle

198
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: on the first round pick. And the Lakers were like,

199
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: we don't even know the health status to John Wall

200
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: and know we're not giving you a first round pick.

201
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: Of course, Wall and Westbrook we know famously, uh, we're

202
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: dealt for one another. And now they're basically the only

203
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: guys that can be traded for one another given the

204
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,719
Speaker 1: salary situations. So the Lakers stamp pat they're going to

205
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: hit the buyout market. Probably we'll hear some names, some

206
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: movement this today. Um, But the reality is, like, you know,

207
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 1: they're kind of locked in, and you look at this

208
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 1: schedule and I'm talking about it for a third day

209
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,079
Speaker 1: in a row. The Lakers upcoming schedule is a gauntlet,

210
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 1: a lot of national TV games, Lebron and a d

211
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: There are gonna be questions. I think they'll be okay,

212
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: but I did see one sports book have them fifty

213
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: to one to win the title. Now, if you remember,

214
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 1: there were days when Lebron was in the East and

215
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: the Calves were struggling, and like the Toronto Raptors were

216
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: favored to get to the NBA Finals over the Calves,

217
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: and everybody laughed because it's like freaking Raptors, get out

218
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: of here out. Uh, guess who came out of the East,

219
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: Like every year it was Lebron, because that was Lebron.

220
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: But again that was like five six years ago. He's

221
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: now thirty seven. Can he do that in the West where, oh,

222
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: by the way, the Phoenix Suns are forty ten and oh,

223
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: by the way, the Warriors are incredible despite not having

224
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: Draymond Green And oh yeah, did you see that Luca

225
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: Dontech added another shooter and another score. No, I mean,

226
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: I'm not having even mentioned the Memphis Grizzlies, who are

227
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: twenty one games over. Lakers are four under. Like the

228
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 1: West is just stacked, the East has not nearly as formidable. Um,

229
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: but a quick word on this MAV's deal. I all

230
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: the I I of course love it. Davis, Bertans and

231
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: Dinwoody go from Washington to the MAVs in exchange for

232
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: porzingis all I see on social media Thursday as this

233
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: trades popping. You know, wos just firing off the stuff

234
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: on on on social media. It's like, wait a minute,

235
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: everybody's saying that the Pertends has a horrible contract, what

236
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: a bad deal? Like hold on time out, Let let

237
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: me get our twenty second time out here. Three years ago,

238
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: Burton's is one of the best shooters in the league.

239
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 1: Two years ago, Burton's was one of the best shooters

240
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: in the league. Then the wheels fall off the Wizards,

241
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: people get hurt, the Wizards stink, opponents figure out what

242
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 1: Barton's canon can't do, the Wizards go through coaching changes,

243
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 1: and now Burton's all of a sudden, is garbage. People

244
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: just forget And this is not just sports, its life.

245
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: Don't view somebody on what they have been or what

246
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: they are, view them what they can be. Think about

247
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: what Burton's can be when he's got Jalen Brunson and

248
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: Luca don Chet setting the table for him. Just consider

249
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: that for a moment like this is gonna be a

250
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: different player. He's gonna be reinvigorated. It's gonna be like Oh,

251
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: I'm in a winning culture with one of the best

252
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 1: players in the league on my team. Oh, this is fun. Yeah,

253
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go that extra effort on defense. Like this

254
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: is a MAVs team that the last two years in

255
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 1: the playoffs, the reason they flamed out was because they

256
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: have to face Paul George in Uh, Kawai Leonard. Yeah,

257
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: that didn't work out great. Well, guess what They're not

258
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 1: gonna have to face those guys this year. I think

259
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: Luke is gonna be okay. Uh, the Nuggets are good,

260
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: but they're still too beat up. I don't believe in

261
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: the Jazz who have had injuries, and it feels like

262
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: that's kind of run its course again. Memphis has to

263
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: learn to run before they can walk. I'm the helling

264
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: you guys. I'll sprinkle a little on Dallas. You never

265
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: want to um factor injuries in that haven't happened yet,

266
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: But Chris Paul's injury history in the playoffs needs to

267
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: be noted. Last year was like the only season that

268
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: he has not gone through the playoffs without an injury.

269
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean countless times. Like this is a guy getting

270
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: up there in age I I can you count on him?

271
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: They make another move by the way to get holiday.

272
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: Um as like a backup to campaign, and maybe they're

273
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: gonna reduce Chris Paul's minutes going forward. UM, I don't know.

274
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: I just I don't see how this isn't a massive

275
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: win for Dallas, which now gets Dinwoodie, who can come

276
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: off the bench and your offense doesn't go into a

277
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: shell because you've got a like a assassin type score. Um,

278
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: this Burton's terrible contract. Like, guys, get out of here.

279
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: I mean, how many how many years in a row

280
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: Westbrook traded, Chris Paul traded. All these guys were like, oh,

281
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: this contract is terrible. You can't nobody's gonna want him.

282
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: That's just it's not how the league works. Um, I

283
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: did see Marvin Bagley got shipped to the Pistons. It's

284
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: like a footnote to a footnote. And that's sad because

285
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: Marvin Bagley's you guys know, was awesome at Duke and

286
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: he was always say destined for greatness, but he was

287
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: like a top three pick, certifiable superstar, the kind of

288
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: guy you're like, Man, Marvin Bagley can be something. And

289
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: I don't know what the hell happened. It's it's Sacramento.

290
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: Usually not good things happen there, um, and it was

291
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: just one of those like wow, Wow, where do you

292
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: go from here? He was benched, he was not playing. Uh,

293
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: he fell out of favor with the coaching staff. He

294
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: gets a new start in Detroit where their bottom feeders,

295
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: and he's gonna get plenty of minutes. I kind of

296
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: wish Marvin Bagley the best. I don't know much about

297
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: his situation, um, but just a crazy day in the NBA,

298
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: and of course capped off with the All Star Draft.

299
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys saw that on t NT.

300
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: I don't normally watch that kind of thing, but with

301
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant drafting and ignoring James Harden and not drafting

302
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: him at all, Like with that the look on his face,

303
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: it's pretty clear that Kevin Durant is really ticked off

304
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: at James Harden for leaving. Again. I'm gonna go back

305
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: to what I said the other day. Don't blame James Harden, Kevin,

306
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: blame Kyrie Irving. Kyrie Irving is the reason this team

307
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: blew up. Kyrie Irving, who by the way, did not

308
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: play great in Washington last night. Um, he can only

309
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: play in road games. Camp Thomas though the kid from

310
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: LSU love his games so aggressive he played well. Um,

311
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: if if Kyrie Irving is vaccinated and he's not burning

312
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 1: sage in the locker room. By the way, did you

313
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: guys see that note? I think this was in the

314
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: Athletic um according to one of these reports, So Kyrie

315
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: Irving is in the locker room, uh in Cleveland, January seventeen,

316
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: and he's earning sage, one of these like rituals to

317
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: cleanse negative energy. Yes, this is a real thing. Kyrie

318
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: Irving apparently feels haunted by parts of his past in Cleveland,

319
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: so he lit his torch to burn sage in the

320
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 1: locker room. According to sources who were in the room,

321
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: James Harden watched Irving and looked at him like he

322
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 1: had three heads. Understandable. I mean, the guy's burning sage

323
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: to cleanse negative energy like I mean, and the quote

324
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: from the Athletic. Definitely a weird vibe between them. You

325
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: could tell Harden was annoyed and Kyrie wasn't feeling James listen,

326
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 1: Kevin Durry, this is one of the I mean that

327
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant left. Steph Curry to play with a guy

328
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: who burns sage in the locker room to cleanse it.

329
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 1: It's just staggering. You guys know, I'm a huge Kevin

330
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: Durant fan. Um, we had our little instagram d M Broman.

331
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: It's a couple of years back. He doesn't really respond

332
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: to me anymore. Um. He's been in my town recently, um,

333
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: in the in the off season, and I've tried. I

334
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: know people who have seen him. I haven't seen him.

335
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,120
Speaker 1: I would definitely be like, yo, okay, do you remember me?

336
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 1: Do you just give me the stuff farm? But at

337
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: any rate, it's just so weird that he would bail

338
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 1: on Curry to hitch his wagon to Kyrie Irving, who

339
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: only plays road games and is basically just a weird,

340
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,880
Speaker 1: weird dude. Side notes speaking of famous people. So I'm

341
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: walking my dog, you know, the new dog update. Dog

342
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: is great. UM, tiring, exhausting, but great. Um. And I

343
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: see one of my neighbors talking to somebody, you know,

344
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 1: I'm walking the dog and the dogs basically walking me,

345
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: and I'm like, wow, that kind of looks like Chip Kelly,

346
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: the u c l A coach. And so I text

347
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 1: somebody who lives on the street where I was walking.

348
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: I was like, Hey, is there any chance Chip Kelly

349
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: lives over there? Oh? Yeah, chip Kelly, there's a couple

350
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,719
Speaker 1: of doors down from me. I was like, what, Literally,

351
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: I could throw a football, probably a NERF ball, and

352
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 1: maybe hit chip Kelly's house. And again, I'm not in

353
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,640
Speaker 1: some ball or neighborhood. I'm not even a homeowner. We

354
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: were just renting because you know, we just got out

355
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 1: here recently. But to find out Chip Kelly lives near me,

356
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: I can I get him on the pod? Could I

357
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 1: do a live interview with Now there's no chance chip

358
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 1: Kelly's a weirdo anyway. Um, by the way, shout out

359
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: to U c l A. I know Rob G's gonna

360
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 1: love that note, Um because he's a U c l

361
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: A guy at any rate. Um, that's enough NBA for

362
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: one night. Who wild times. Um, maybe we'll get my god.

363
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 1: You know it's funny. I'll tell this before we get

364
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 1: to the NFL prop prop picks for the Super Bowl.

365
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: So I had texted wind Horse last week, Hey man,

366
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: I would love to get you on before the trade deadline,

367
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 1: you know, and he's like, yeah, be pretty busy, but

368
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: I could probably sway it. So we text Sunday and

369
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 1: he's like, I'll let you know, and then I don't

370
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: really hear anything. And then the next thing I see

371
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: from him is, despite what's out there, Hardened Simmons trade

372
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: talks are definitely happening. And I was like, oh, well,

373
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 1: that's probably why you didn't get back to me. He's

374
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: like kind of busy. Um. And then of course, you know,

375
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: I said, hey, congratsman, well done. He's like, yeah, this

376
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: was one of those weeks. Well we'll talk soon or something,

377
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: and and win. Horse is a good guy, you guys know.

378
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of his work obviously. Obviously I like

379
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: Whoes as well. I don't know shams Um, Chris Haynes

380
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 1: seems like a good guy the few times I've met him. Um.

381
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 1: But when Horse does it has the gift of gab.

382
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: He does like to talk, So we'll try to get

383
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 1: him on next week. I mean, this league is wild.

384
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: I mean it is absolutely bonkers. And um, we're gonna

385
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: be talking about it now a lot. Because the NFL

386
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: season is almost over, and let's segue into the Super Bowl.

387

393
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: and now what you've all been waiting for Super Bowl picks.

394
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 1: The season has been pretty awesome. It had a couple

395
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: of ups and downs, as any NFL season does. I

396
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 1: remember I had such a good run late September early October.

397
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: I went out and um about a new car. Um.

398
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: It was a good run. Not not my best run ever. Um.

399
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: The playoffs have been good. But I know this is

400
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,199
Speaker 1: gonna sound strange. I don't have that much money in

401
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: play for the Super Bowl. Uh. It's one of the sharpest,

402
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: most efficient markets. You guys have noticed the line has

403
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: barely budged at all. UM, So I'm not heavily invested.

404
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: The reason is because I'm so loaded up on the

405
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: RAMS futures bets. If you guys remember, I wrote a

406
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: piece for Fox Sports last January, yes, thirteen months ago,

407
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 1: about how Stafford makes them the favorites of the NFC.

408
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: I'll be betting them to win the NFC and the

409
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: Super Bowl I also bet Stafford to win the m

410
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,640
Speaker 1: v P that not obviously pan out, and so I'm

411
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: sitting I'm sitting pretty I just need the Rams to

412
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: win now. If they lose, that would obviously suck badly.

413
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: But I was a plus thirteen hundred, plus eleven hundred,

414
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: I've got them. It's pretty good numbers. And the interesting

415
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: thing with the market now is you can shop around

416
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: and you know, parcel out a couple of hundred here,

417
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: a couple hundred there, um, and get down some decent money.

418
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: And again, I'm not one of these high rollers who's

419
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 1: dropping tent thousand on in a game. That's just not

420
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: how I really roll. Sorry if that's shattering any illusions.

421
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: But you know, I got a couple of kids, We

422
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: got a couple of interesting things in the hopper. I

423
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: own a minority owner of a soccer team, my ownority

424
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: owner of a basketball team in Australia. UM, I can't

425
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 1: be gambling, you know, five six figures on um NFL

426
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: games on the reg Occasionally I'll splurt when there's something

427
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: an opportunity really presents itself, and there will be some

428
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: of the offseason for NFL futures we'll get to but

429
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl itself, I I I'm not like

430
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 1: loaded up on a side or total. You guys know,

431
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: I am on the Rams money line minus one eight. Uh.

432
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: It's interesting because that had gone up. I saw two

433
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: hundred just to win. Obviously, I don't love four and

434
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 1: a half. There was some Bengals money on Thursday to

435
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: bring it down to four. Um, maybe we'll see a

436
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: three and a half. I think the Rams win. Um,

437
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: I'm picking them about thirteen thereabouts. I like the under.

438
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 1: I've bet the under forty eight and a half. I

439
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 1: got under forty nine and a half. It was at

440
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: fifty and a half. I didn't get the early number. Um.

441
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 1: But what you guys are really here for is the props.

442
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: And I will say I've got a couple of hail

443
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: mary props that will pay really well if they hit. Uh,

444
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,400
Speaker 1: let's start with the hail Mary's. The long shots. And

445
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys are talking twenty bucks

446
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 1: here fifty hundred, five hundred. But Matthew Stafford two touchdowns

447
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: plus five thousands, so I went digging, okay, and Matt

448
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: Stafford did not have a rushing touchdown the entire regular season,

449
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: not one. But what has happened in the playoffs. He

450
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: has two rushing touchdowns and he could have had a third. Uh,

451
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 1: I just couldn't get in the end zone. Um, so

452
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 1: they go from not running Stafford in the regular season

453
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: to running him on the one yard line. And I

454
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: don't like to bet uh quarterbacks running stats because I'm

455
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,880
Speaker 1: sure everybody remembers Mahomes a couple of years ago had

456
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 1: the number at topped and I think the second quarter

457
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,479
Speaker 1: and then because if kneel downs late ended up, it

458
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: didn't hit Mahomes over rushing yards. So I don't like

459
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: to mess around with rushing yards for quarterbacks, but touchdowns sure.

460
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,199
Speaker 1: The other element here is we know the Rams have

461
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: a wide receiver who can throw the football in Odell Beckham,

462
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: great arm Cooper cup. I don't know if he's stone passes,

463
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: but the guy looks like a great athlete. Come on,

464
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: I would not be shocked. Remember Nick Foles ran the

465
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,959
Speaker 1: Philly Special. Why couldn't Matt Stafford. If McVeigh really wants

466
00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: to shock, absolutely stunned the Bengals, you think they're gon

467
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: to be ready for a Philly Special with Stafford? Now,

468
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: it makes it sound easy to touchdown, but they got

469
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: to get inside the five yard line twice, UM and

470
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: be uh, Stafford gotta find the end zone twice UM.

471
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: So plus two touchdowns for Stafford plus five thousand, you

472
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: put a couple of bucks on it. It's not a

473
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 1: bad pay day. Another Hail Mary, Uh is m v

474
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 1: P award And I've got two on the Bengals. Now, Jason,

475
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: why are you betting Bengals? Uh? If you like the

476
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 1: Rams and you are pulling for the Rams, well, UM,

477
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: I don't know about you, guys, but there is obviously

478
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: a scenario where crazy ship happens in the Super Bowl.

479
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: And if you remember last year, I mean, who had

480
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: the Chiefs not scoring a touchdown? Right? Who had the

481
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: Rams offense not scoring a touchdown a few years ago?

482
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: Like stuff happens. Do the Rams lay egg? That's possible,

483
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: entirely possible. So too. I I just bet two m

484
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 1: vps on the Bengal side. I went with Tee Higgins.

485
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: He was at plus five thousand, he's now down to

486
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: four thousand. And you know, in this scenario, over Jalen

487
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 1: Ramsey locks up Jamar Chase, te Higgins becomes the guy

488
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: and Tee Higgins of course, had a very good game

489
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 1: against Chiefs. He is a guy who loves to go

490
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: over the middle. We know the Chiefs have struggled defending

491
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 1: the middle. I'm sorry the Rams have struggled defending the

492
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: middle of the field. Tee Higgins can have a seven

493
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: for one oh five and two scores that's entirely in

494
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: play for te Higgins. Will that win you the m

495
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: v P? Well, why wouldn't they give it to Borrow?

496
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: Well I'll get to the reason for that in a moment.

497
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: But Tee Higgins plus four thousand, sure, and the other

498
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 1: one and laugh if you will. A kickers never won

499
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 1: the m v P. But Evan mcfearless, Evan McPherson plus

500
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: I saw a plus twelve thousand to an m v P. Now,

501
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: how the hell does this happen? Well, you've got a

502
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: low scoring game, You've got a kicker banging I don't

503
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: know what to fifty yards and the Bengals win fifteen

504
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: to ten or twelve to ten and McPherson has five

505
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: field goals and as the m v P, could that happen? Well, listen, man,

506
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: I've been gambling on sports too long to say that

507
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: that could never happen. Evan McPherson could win the MVP.

508
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: He's been a phenomenal kicker, the best best kicker in

509
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 1: the postseason by far um. What are the odds on this?

510
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 1: We plus twelve thousand says something. Kickers never won the

511
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: m v P. Now let's go back to Joe Burrow.

512
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: Why Burrow wouldn't win it? If T Higgins has a

513
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: nice game and wins the MVP. I look at Burrow

514
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: and I did bet fairly significantly Burrow interceptions over half

515
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: an interception. That number has crept up. It's minus one

516
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: fifty seven. Now as we record this on Thursday, we

517
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: all know Joe Burrow has been amazing down the stretch.

518
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 1: I think the final four games to help them get

519
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: in the playoffs eleven touchdown, zero picks. And you know

520
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: his playoff run has been good. And it's obscured the

521
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: fact that, oh, wait a minute, Joe Burrow was third

522
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: in the NFL and picks with sixteen. Oh I didn't

523
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: know that. Now, Yes, Stafford led the NFL in interceptions,

524
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 1: but he actually played one more game than Burrow, who

525
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: sat out Week eighteen, and through seventy two more passes

526
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 1: ms Burrow can get loose with the ball and I'm

527
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: just listen, sixteen receptions on the season. I know he's

528
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: tightened it up a little bit, but there's Rams defense, guys,

529
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: is no joke as Rams defense should get after Burrow.

530
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 1: I can see him scrambling. I'm not gonna mess with

531
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: his rushing yards because, um, I just again quarterback rushing yards.

532
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,120
Speaker 1: I explained it with Stafford. I'm just kind of done

533
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 1: with that. I don't know if they decide, Hey, Joe,

534
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 1: instead of having you scrambling for your life, we're just

535
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: gonna shorten, um the passes. We're gonna shorten the route trees,

536
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna shorten the drops because we know this pass

537
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 1: rush is gonna get after you, and we just we're

538
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: just gonna speed things up and get the ball out

539
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: of your hands quicker. Um, does that mean Burrow will

540
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: be under less dress? Possibly, but I'm betting on von Miller,

541
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: Leonard Floyd and Everdonald all to get after Burrow and

542
00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: at least one or two mistakes where he's throwing it

543
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: away and the Rams getting picked. Now, the Rams, I

544
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: think I have in my stats here. I think the

545
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: Rams were third in the NFL and interceptions. They've got

546
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: kind of a ball hawking secondary um and and in

547
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: the playoffs, I think they have two interceptions in three

548
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 1: games or three in four games, four and three games

549
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: one of those two. But bottom line, this is a defense.

550
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: It gets after it and it's helped with the great

551
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: pass rush. So as we saw with Jimmy g trying

552
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 1: to scramble to make a play late, just kind of

553
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: crazy flip out picked off. And remember Burrow against the

554
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: Chiefs had one interception definitely dropped, had another one picked

555
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: and then a couple other dicey throws. I think Burrow

556
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: over half an interception is a good bet. Everybody's gonna

557
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 1: look at Stafford because they think Stafford could choke. Um,

558
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: let's see what else first touchdown cam Akers. Now this

559
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 1: has been muddied a bit by the news that Henderson

560
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 1: is healthy and probably will be a go. That's gonna

561
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: mess with running back props. If you've already bet acres

562
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: and a lot of people bet the acres over prop,

563
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to say I feel for you,

564
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: but you may want to look at trying to get

565
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: a middle here. If Sony, Michelle and Henderson are all

566
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 1: getting carries at Acres. By the way, Acres doesn't have

567
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: a touchdown this season and as dynamic as he's been.

568
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: Remember be dump truck Buddha Baker in that Arizona game,

569
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: but flat out ran him over and like that was

570
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 1: one of their splash plays from the game. Meanwhile, cam

571
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: Akers doesn't have a carry over fifty. He has one

572
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: fifteen yard carry in the playoffs. UM. That being said,

573
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: this is a Bengals defensive run run stopping unit that

574
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 1: they you know, Josh Jacob's average six and a half

575
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: yards of carry. The Titans rushed for a buck forty.

576
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: The Chiefs out a hundred thirty nine like Acres, Henderson

577
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: and Michelle will All. I think I would. I would

578
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: guess Acres does the bulk of it. So I I

579
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: just I took a shot on cam Akers first touchdown. UM.

580
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 1: Obviously building confidence for him after the two fumbles against

581
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 1: Tampa would be big. Now it does kind of fly

582
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 1: in the face of my Stafford two touchdowns I think

583
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: Acres and more likely from like six yards out, whereas

584
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 1: Stafford will be on the goal line. UM the guy, um,

585
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: So I I do believe this will be a run

586
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: heavy attack. Obviously, the run can loose it up that defense,

587
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: and if the BEng Wals say, hey, we're gonna drop

588
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: eight like we did against Patrick Mahomes, We're gonna drop

589
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: seven and you're not gonna get any big plays on us. Um, yeah,

590
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: good luck with that. Mcveig's smart enough to just run

591
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: the damn ball. The Chiefs for whatever reason, went away

592
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: from the run game and kind of melted down in

593
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: the second half. Now this leads to another prop that

594
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: I'm kind of heavy on. Cooper Cup longest reception. Cup

595
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: has been one of the most talked about prop guys

596
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 1: all week because A he's Cooper Cup. He's freaking incredible.

597
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: B did you watch the San Francisco game? See did

598
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: you watch the Tampa game? And the obvious like Stafford

599
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 1: and Cooper Cup have some kind of synergy going on

600
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: that's really really fun to watch. I mean, it's clear

601
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: on third down it's Cooper Cup time, like Stafford is

602
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: laser locked in on him. Um. I think Cup has

603
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: a nice game. That being said, my guess is the

604
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: Bengals are gonna mix up their defenses when you've got

605
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: two weeks and everybody just saw you drop into seven

606
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: eight against Patrick Mahomes and kind of befuddle him. Rams

607
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: will be ready for that. So my gut is telling

608
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: me they do not just drop into one of those

609
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: big zone defenses and have Stafford and Cup pick them apart.

610
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: There will be some man opportunities. Matt Stafford veteran quarterback,

611
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 1: extremely smart, intelligent, great arm. I know it didn't show

612
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: in the tart interception or dropped interception, but Cooper Cup

613
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 1: longest reception. I'm passing on receptions and yards because again

614
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: I do believe the Rams win this fairly handily. Cooper

615
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: Cup longest reception over twenty eight and a half yards.

616
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: The juice has gone way up. Guys minus one. I

617
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: would actually if if they offered me over twenty nine yards,

618
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: I would take it with less juice. Twenty nine and

619
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: a half I would consider that. UM I did look

620
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: this up. Cooper Cup has gone over, has had to

621
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: play longer than twenty eight and a half yards in

622
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: fifteen of twenty games this season. Fifteen is twenty. The

623
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: guy is a big play machine. And guess who led

624
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: the league in yak yack them? Cooper Cup led the

625
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: league in yards after catch. I mean, that's what this

626
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: guy does. So over twenty eight and a half longest

627
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 1: reception for Cooper Cup. Absolutely love it. Um. If you're

628
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: into a kind of a square bet, um, that's just

629
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: a fun one. If you believe that you if you're

630
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: riding with me, Jay, I like it. I like the Rams.

631
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: I like their defensive line dominating. Here's one for plus

632
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 1: five hundred. I saw Rams win Rams six plus sacks.

633
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 1: That's a lot, but possible with this unit against an

634
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: overwhelmed defensive line. Cooper Cup one hundred plus receiving yards

635
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: and one touchdown. Now that is a lot to ask,

636
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 1: but plus five hundred. If you're like me bullish on

637
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: the Rams, go for fifty bucks plus five hundred. That's

638
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: not a bad payout right now, are you gonna be

639
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: sweating Cooper Cup? If it's you know it's ev'teen nothing

640
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 1: in the third quarter? Well, why are they throwing a cup?

641
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: We've seen McVeigh take the air out of the ball

642
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 1: before and again there's gonna be in game betting opportunities.

643
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't flush everything on your on your props before

644
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 1: the game. I certainly listen. I know some people like

645
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: the heads tails, some people like the gatorade. Some people

646
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 1: like the national anthem. I just don't mess with that stuff.

647
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: You know you can if you want, go for it.

648
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 1: If you think that if the video pops up on

649
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 1: social media, guess what, everybody and their mom's gonna hammer it.

650
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 1: You have to be there, like within minutes of when

651
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: it gets uh leaked, um the sound check, and I

652
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: just I can't ride with that. I just don't care

653
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: about this stuff. I like football, I like the game.

654
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: I think I can find edges Um in game before

655
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: the game. Um, you guys know I will be a

656
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 1: big Rams fan. Um. I don't know if I'll be

657
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 1: wearing a Cooper Cup jersey, Um, but I will be.

658
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 1: I'm rooting for my wallet. And and and obviously the Rams

659
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: are here in the backyard. Um, I just I need

660
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 1: them here. It would be a nice little windfall heading

00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 1: into February n b A February college basketball. Obviously, March

662
