Speaker 1: Your questions answered back end of the episode, So if

9
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: you submitted them, make sure you hang around. If you

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: didn't and you just want to hear the weird questions

11
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 1: that people asked us, stick around for that as well. Kendra,

12
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: you've tabbed yourself the combine freak of this podcast. What

13
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: is it about this event that jazz?

14
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 2: Is you up?

15
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: And are you particularly excited for this year for any

16
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: certain reason?

17
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 3: I'm not super excited about this combine. I was really

18
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: excited about last year's. I just I love the positions

19
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 3: that aren't quarterbacks, so I guess it's a better draft

20
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,679
Speaker 3: for that. But I feel like we're not gonna get

21
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 3: as many fun storylines this year as we're used to.

22
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 4: I love the combine.

23
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 3: Because I think it helps us get to know these

24
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 3: guys a little better. I also love that it's not

25
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 3: just like Super football related, like we're about to watch

26
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 3: guys running a straight line and jump and all of

27
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 3: that crazy stuff, and then we wind up getting these

28
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 3: weird stories like Will Campbell and his small arms that

29
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 3: just will infiltrate the Internet and cause meme after meme

30
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 3: after meme until we eventually get to March Madness. I

31
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 3: just think it's a fun, little like football moment. We

32
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 3: get to know these guys a little bit better, see

33
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 3: what they can do outside of the football field, and

34
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 3: it's just I think it's a good week for college football.

35
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 3: Gives us something to look forward to, and I kind

36
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 3: of love to just sit here and be like, ah,

37
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: not his footwork not that great on that one. Let's

38
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: see the next guy. Like I just the combine's so

39
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: fun and it's cool to see these guys get a

40
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 3: moment to kind of just show off and you.

41
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 4: Know, live their childhood dream.

42
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 3: And I am a softy if we know this deep down,

43
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: even though I come off like a bitch, I just

44
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 3: like to see these guys' stories and get to know

45
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 3: them a little bit better.

46
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: Well, I would never call you that, but yeah, it

47
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: is the underwear Olympics.

48
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: I used to be very much into the combine for

49
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: all of those reasons, but once I caught myself overvaluing

50
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: what it was that I saw, I had to take

51
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: a step back from it. Because that's the question that

52
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: any of us, especially if you're a GM in the

53
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 1: league or a scout, that you have to ask yourself

54
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: is is are you going to get in more trouble

55
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 1: by outright ignoring the results?

56
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: Which some GMS.

57
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: Nick Cassario made a big thing about this last year saying,

58
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: I don't even I don't care what anybody does at

59
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: the combine. I'm not going to factor that into my

60
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: overall analysis. Do you get in more trouble ignoring it

61
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: or do you get in more trouble by paying too

62
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: much attention to it and overvaluing those results?

63
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: Stuckey, where do you land on that?

64
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: As far as which end of the spectrum you think

65
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: causes more harm than good?

66
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 5: I think probably ignoring it. I mean you can get

67
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 5: in trouble on both ends, like if to compare it

68
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 5: to like betting on sports at a high level. You

69
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 5: you know, you can do it at a high level

70
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 5: just by focusing on the numbers, having a really good model,

71
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 5: But in order to I think be even more complete

72
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 5: and maximize your potential return, you also have to have

73
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 5: the other side of it, understanding the matchups, the news,

74
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 5: the injuries, blah blah blah. You know, there's an artistic

75
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 5: subjective portion as well, and I think when it comes

76
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 5: to evaluating talent in the NFL, you can't just completely

77
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 5: like there's a lot of things, like you just talked

78
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 5: about hand size, arm length, there's certain just characteristics and

79
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 5: minimum things that you want to see from a certain player.

80
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 5: And then there's also you know that you said getting

81
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 5: to know these players. I think it completely ignore just

82
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 5: their character, how they interview, I think would be a

83
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 5: mistake as well. That's a part of it.

84
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 2: You know.

85
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 5: Then obviously you have your tape and how they perform

86
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 5: on the field, and that's part of it as well.

87
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 5: So I think you're talking about NFL teams, billion dollar franchises,

88
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 5: it has to be an all encompassing scalp in order

89
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 5: to come up with a you know, the best possible

90
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 5: kind of hypothesis and building out your draft board. You

91
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 5: can't just ignore one part of it. You can't just

92
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 5: go based off of what you see. You can't just

93
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 5: ignore what you saw and go based off of the measurables.

94
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 5: And then you can't just ignore a character how they

95
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 5: might fit in the locker room. And so I think

96
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 5: all of it matters, but I think you can get

97
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 5: a little bit more trouble of just completely ignoring it

98
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,799
Speaker 5: because there are just certain red flags. There are certain

99
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 5: things that jump off the page for certain positions that

100
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 5: might not have translated depending on the scheme and the

101
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 5: system in college, that you know could help you identify,

102
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 5: especially that those diamonds in the rough. But yeah, I

103
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 5: mean you look at you know, but arm length for

104
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 5: left tackle, the hand size for a quarterback, like there

105
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 5: are a lot of these things, you know, some of

106
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 5: the athletics scores for some of the other positions, like

107
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 5: these are things that that matter. Now, it's not all

108
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 5: that matters, and it doesn't mean that because you don't

109
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 5: hit a certain threshold, you can't make it or be

110
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 5: really good in the NFL or vice versa. But they

111
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 5: do matter. So, but I think you're buying in trouble

112
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 5: for ignoring it. But basically to sew up a very

113
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 5: long answer, it depends and you have to take into

114
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 5: account everything.

115
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say too, like there are instances

116
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 3: where we've seen like the Will Campbell arm thing that

117
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 3: seem to have mattered this season, Kenny Pickett's hand size

118
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 3: that seemed to have mattered through his career. And the

119
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 3: other thing is too is like I feel like we

120
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 3: know what to expect from certain guys in the combine,

121
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 3: but having a good combine can get you further than

122
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 3: I think that these guys who are expected to perform

123
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 3: and not having a good performance. So I think it

124
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 3: helps some guys, and I don't think it could really

125
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 3: hurt people as much as you think. Like, if you

126
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 3: have a bad combine and you have all of this

127
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 3: great tape and all of these great, you know, accolades

128
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 3: throughout your career, I don't think it hurts you. But

129
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:13,919
Speaker 3: if you're one of these guys who you feel like

130
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 3: is being overlooked and you have a good showing, I

131
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 3: think that it causes some people to start having more

132
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 3: conversations around you.

133
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: I think it's really largely about the guys that are

134
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: in the middle rounds this is about four to through

135
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: seven more than it's about rounds one through three, and

136
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: we're seeing more and more of those guys, especially first

137
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: round picks bona fide, second round guys that are just saying,

138
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: don't I don't need this. I've just been burned by

139
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 1: this so many times. And obviously the forty time is

140
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 1: what gets the most attention. John Ross setting records, he sucked,

141
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: Xavier Worthy was great, He's been okay in the NFL.

142
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 2: You go back.

143
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: The best example is Jerry Rice so was a four

144
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: seven forty that didn't matter. Obviously he's the best receiver

145
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: in NFL history. I think of it like a cupcake. Guys,

146
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: like if the the film in college is the cake

147
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: part the I'm not sure that the combine is the icing.

148
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: I think it's the sprinkles. Something else is the character?

149
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: Maybe is the icing. The interviews I think, like Stuck

150
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: he said, are probably more important than anything. Am I

151
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: drafting a piece of shit is important, and then the

152
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: combine is just it's data that you don't want to ignore.

153
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 2: But I think it's sprinkles.

154
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 3: Well, I rip the bottom off my cupcake and make

155
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: a sandwich. Anyway, So.

156
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: The baller move Evan mentioned that Rubin Bain is a

157
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: big storyline. Is he's the arm length guy for this year? Kendrick,

158
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: can you confirm?

159
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, So, I've seen a bunch of people. So I

160
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 3: think Mike Golick Junior put out a tweet yesterday saying

161
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 3: that his comp should be Optimus Prime, and I thought

162
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 3: that that was a really good tweet. But yeah, I

163
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 3: think that he's gonna be one of these guys that

164
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 3: people should watch this year. He's been a big trend

165
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 3: on Twitter. But there's a lot of guys that I

166
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 3: think they could go out and have a good showing.

167
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 3: It's it's kind of crazy that we're already in combine season.

168
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 3: But another guy I would look at probably Caden Procter

169
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 3: from Alabama, and then I think that he's going to

170
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 3: have a good showing. And then maybe Ty Simpson also

171
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 3: one of these guys to watch in the combine. If

172
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 3: I could give you three guys to watch, it probably

173
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 3: be Rubin Baine, Kaden Proctor, and Ty Simpson.

174
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: He's going to be an interesting one with how weak

175
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: this draft classes at quarterback.

176
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 2: See where these guys go. Let's get to a couple.

177
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: Of other news items that are coming out of the

178
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: media of veils in Indianapolis. Nick Sirianni can't guarantee that

179
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: AJ Brown is going to be on the team in

180
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six. We've got Howie Roseman with the GM

181
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: kiss of death on his future in Philly.

182
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 2: Quote.

183
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: I think you go into your league year listening to

184
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: offers for everything and anything. I know this is his mantra,

185
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: but I think he used to be more bullish on

186
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: AJ Brown forty million dollar dead cap hit if they

187
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: trade him before June first, So don't expect this to

188
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: have been anytime soon. But Stucky, do you think it

189
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: would be a bad move for the Eagles to start

190
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: looking elsewhere and let Davonte be the number one guy there?

191
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 5: No, I mean I don't think would be bad to

192
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 5: look considering just how everything went down this year. The

193
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,319
Speaker 5: offer's right, the Eagles are going to take it. They've

194
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 5: they generally trade well. Rosmand does a good job, but

195
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 5: maybe they can fix the marriage and you know, with

196
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 5: a new offensive coordinator and an offseason. So it's I

197
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 5: think it's just it's still TBD to see how it

198
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 5: all plays out. There definitely was a rift. Can they

199
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 5: solve it and come together and move on or is

200
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 5: it just better for all parties to separate. I don't know,

201
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 5: we'll find out. I think if the price is right,

202
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 5: they're definitely going to explore it. But if it's not

203
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 5: and they can they feel like they have it under

204
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,319
Speaker 5: control in the locker room, then I'm sure they'd be

205
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 5: glad to have a J Brown back. So yeah, a

206
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 5: lot to come there. One of the one of the

207
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 5: key storylines of the NFL off season.

208
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 1: I'm starting to see the superimposed image of AJ Brown

209
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: in a Patriots uniform floating around social media. I don't

210
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 1: know if I love the idea, Kendra, of AJ Brown

211
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: and Stefan Diggs in the same locker room.

212
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,479
Speaker 2: That doesn't sound like a good idea.

213
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 3: I don't think Stephan's going to be a Patriot next

214
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 3: season by any means. I'm very much willing to say

215
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 3: that on whatever day today is, February twenty sixth, I

216
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 3: don't think that he is going to be back on

217
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 3: this team. I think that they're going to go all

218
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 3: in on AJ Brown because of the relationship that him

219
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 3: and Mike Rabel have. He knows the kind of you

220
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 3: know ship that he runs, and I think that that's

221
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 3: really important. So I think that the AJ Brown thing

222
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 3: definitely has some legs. The Patriots have money, they have picks. That's,

223
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 3: you know, one of their main focuses this offseason. It's

224
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 3: going to be that and the trenches for them. So

225
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 3: I could definitely see it happening because AJ Brown is

226
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 3: such a big personality. But if Mike Vrabel can take

227
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 3: a big personality and Stefan Diggs and turn him into

228
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 3: a leader on this team, I don't see why he

229
00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 3: can't do the same with AJ Brown.

230
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 4: They love each other, they know each other.

231
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,959
Speaker 3: And if that, for some reason doesn't work out, I

232
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 3: think the BTJ thing could probably catch them steam up

233
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 3: here in New England as well.

234
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: By the way, new offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles,

235
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: maybe that changes things. Sean Manyon coming in, I think

236
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 1: he prioritizes play action, which would perhaps get AJ Brown

237
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: more involved than whatever Petula was doing. The Dolphins general

238
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: manager says that everything's on the table with Tua. I

239
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: don't think anybody expects him to still be on the

240
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: team next year, but they just have to decide whether

241
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: or not they want to swallow this money. Ninety nine

242
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: million dollar dead cat pit if they cut him before

243
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: June one, that figure would get diced up over a

244
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: couple of years. Here percent chance, Kendra that we see

245
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: Tua on the Miami Dolphins next season.

246
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 3: I've been very adamant about my stance on this, and

247
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 3: I think that I am going to stay on it.

248
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 3: I really think that we're going to see a Kirk

249
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 3: Cousins Michael Pennock situation in Miami next year. Because there

250
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 3: are a lot of stupid teams in the NFL.

251
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 4: The Jets are one, the Browns are one.

252
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 3: The Bengals, like the Bengals don't need a quarterback, but

253
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 3: there are teams out there who are dumb.

254
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 4: The Bears historically, outside.

255
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 3: Of the last couple of seasons, have been in the

256
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: last twenty thirty years, one of the teams that you're like,

257
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 3: what the hell are you guys doing?

258
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 4: Like the Nick Foles thing. When they did that, I

259
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 4: was like, what are you guys doing? So I could

260
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 4: see like a team being dumb enough to do it.

261
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 3: It's just the money and what does he really provide

262
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 3: anybody that needs a quarterback? Like I would rather, I

263
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 3: hate to say it, but I would rather take a

264
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 3: shot with Malik Willis or you know, we talked about

265
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 3: it before we got on here, trying to find the

266
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 3: next dam darnold. Those are things that if I'm a GM,

267
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 3: I would rather take a shot on than someone like Tua.

268
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 4: But that is just me personally.

269
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 3: I think that he's probably going to be, you know,

270
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,119
Speaker 3: coaching up a rookie next year around the bench.

271
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: You know. Stuck.

272
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: One of the differences with Atlanta's an interesting comparison because

273
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: they had the veteran and the young guy that they

274
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 1: started that regime together. Oddly enough, it was a very

275
00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: weird decision that Kirk Cousins was brought in free agency,

276
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: Pennix was drafted. This is a new regime in Miami

277
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: that I think just wants to hit refresh. That feels

278
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: like the motivation here more than anything else. The money

279
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 1: is gonna be the money, but just simply getting the

280
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: guys that have been the faces of the franchise at

281
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: the building feels like as much a priority as anything.

282
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you got to start this whole thing over.

283
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,599
Speaker 5: There's no the Falcons wanted to win. They wanted to

284
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 5: win that. I don't think the Dolphins have realistic expectations

285
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 5: of doing that. So I mean, yeah, you got to

286
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 5: find a way to move on from Tua. If I

287
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 5: have to talk about the Dolphins one more time in February,

288
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 5: of going to lose my mind. By the way, that's

289
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 5: my stance on the Dolphins.

290
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 2: That's fair.

291
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: Well, if you don't like Dolphins talk, can I interest

292
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: you in Jets talk? The Jets and Titans agreed to

293
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: a trade this morning. The Jets are sending Jermaine Johnson,

294
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 1: former first round pick. He had three sacks last year,

295
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: kind of fell off in terms of the stats with

296
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: the New York Jets, but the Jets were terrible, so

297
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: hard to just but they traded him to the Titans

298
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 1: for Devandre Sweat Stuck. You give me the schematic breakdown

299
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: of how is this a Robert sala fit bringing Johnson

300
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: over from New York?

301
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 5: I mean I think that it's it's way better than

302
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 5: what they were doing. I never understood the marriage last year,

303
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 5: and philosophically it didn't make sense. I think this makes

304
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 5: a little bit more sense. I'm not sure that I

305
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 5: would call Glenn's play calling a superpower.

306
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 2: Oh well, he is very comfortable calling it that.

307
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 5: I never thought that was his strength in Detroit, that

308
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 5: wasn't like he was a wizard in that department. Speaking

309
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 5: of superpowers the war, I think we were talking about

310
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 5: the worst superpower that you can have?

311
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: Are you starting the mail bag early here?

312
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 5: Did someone ask that in the mailbag?

313
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 2: No? But can we should? We should add that let's

314
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 2: make up a name.

315
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 5: Well, the worst, the worst superpower that you can have?

316
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 5: I think thinking about it.

317
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 2: We weren't going to let you start the mail bag

318
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: with your random question.

319
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 5: By the way, yeah, I'll do that next. I think

320
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 5: the worst superpower I think you can have, because a

321
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 5: lot of superpowers, like you think they're going to be great,

322
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 5: and they sound great on the surface, but there's if

323
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 5: you really start to think about it, they could be like,

324
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 5: say you go like supersonic speed, like you would die,

325
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 5: Like you would like think about trying if you could

326
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 5: go like one hundred miles an hour. First, well you'd

327
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 5: like running, you would you would like splatter on some

328
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 5: wall or something. But I think the worst one is

329
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 5: being able to read minds. So sounds cool, but number one,

330
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 5: think about when you think about your mind right now,

331
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 5: all the things that you're thinking about, So like if

332
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 5: you could read you would it would just be this

333
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 5: jumbled mess of all these thoughts. You would you would

334
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 5: be over consumed by it, right, like you would just

335
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 5: be And then I don't think I would ultimately want

336
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 5: to know what everyone is thinking about me at all times.

337
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 3: And I like generation I like grew up on like

338
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 3: Edward Cullen reading Bella's mind, so.

339
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 4: I feel like I have like a different take on this.

340
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that would it would think about some with

341
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 5: like if you were reading people's minds are crazy, They're

342
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 5: all over the place, Like imagine walking to the bar

343
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 5: and you're able to read everyone's mind like they would be.

344
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 1: Have to be able to shut it off though they

345
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: would have to be selective mind reading.

346
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 2: I need to know at this moment what this person

347
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 2: is thinking.

348
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 5: I'm going to turn it always you would always end

349
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 5: up turning it on, you know what I mean, Like

350
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 5: you would, Yeah.

351
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 4: But you could also be such a dick to people.

352
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 4: It'd be awesome.

353
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 5: You would be so curious. Also, no one would want

354
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 5: to be around you ever, and people would like, wait.

355
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 4: Could I read my dog's mind?

356
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 5: I would if I could read animals minds, that I would.

357
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 5: I would do that, But I think that would be

358
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 5: the worst superpower for me is mind reading. It would

359
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 5: just become overwhelming and all consuming.

360
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 2: I think it would be invisibility.

361
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: I think it would be really tough to not end

362
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: up on some sort of red check mark list somewhere,

363
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 1: you know, like if you.

364
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 5: Well, if you if you were creep.

365
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: Like you would people would figure out that you're the

366
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: guy that could be invisible, and you would be on

367
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: a list.

368
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 2: It would be a death sentence.

369
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 5: But again, if you were in if you were invisible,

370
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 5: then like this is why I would not also like

371
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 5: do you know this without like being able to live forever,

372
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 5: Like that would in a way that would defeat the

373
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 5: purpose of life, and like life would suck without any finality,

374
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 5: and like what would you like just living for thousands

375
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 5: of years, Like you would become so reckless, right knowing

376
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 5: that you couldn't die, you would live like this just

377
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 5: you would be so lost. But being invisible, you would

378
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 5: get so curious about everything, right, like, oh, I could

379
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 5: be here, I could be in this like meeting in

380
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,199
Speaker 5: the White House, I could go you you wouldn't even

381
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 5: be living life. You would just be all over the place,

382
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 5: like you would have no purpose, no direct And then

383
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 5: like what is what is the actual meaning of your life.

384
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 1: And I think the superpower isn't part of the Like,

385
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe this is just me watching too many

386
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: superhero movies.

387
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,360
Speaker 2: Isn't part of the idea that you can.

388
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: Potentially help people also because you're the one that has

389
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 1: you have super abilities that other people do not have.

390
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: No One's like, Hey, I'm in trouble call the invisible guy.

391
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 2: What the fuck is he gonna do?

392
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 3: The invisible boatmobile from SpongeBob.

393
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's true, Kendra, what would uh?

394
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 2: What would you? What's uh? What's the worst one for you?

395
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 4: I don't know. You guys are sitting here, I'm I.

396
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 3: Really read way too many of the Twilight books to hate.

397
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 1: Kendrew's like, what if I could pickle anything? Just start

398
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 1: staring at it.

399
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what the worst one for you

400
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 3: would be. I don't know. I really don't know. I

401
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,880
Speaker 3: feel like mind reading sounds terrible, but I also would

402
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 3: love to be able to just people all the time.

403
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 1: Well, it sounds like everybody here is ready for some

404

Speaker 4: If your bet wins, the crown is yours.

418
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 2: This is from Danny Dimes.

419
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: Why are college basketball games or college basketball totals always

420
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: less than half of the game total? For example, Duke

421
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: was or no. This is for spreads seventeen point favorite

422
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: with a total of one forty two, with almost no

423
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: chance of overtime or late fouls. Shouldn't the total be

424
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 1: half of the game total? Okay, so this is a

425
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 1: totals question, So Stucky, you're obviously the right one to

426
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 1: answer this question. Why is it that these numbers aren't

427
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: just completely cut in half?

428
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 5: Just the distribution of scoring, Like, you can't say there's

429
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 5: no chance of falling at the end. But a lot

430
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 5: of these games, a lot of times are going to

431
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 5: start a little slower. Like you take a Duke Notre

432
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 5: Dame game of the total of like twenty and there's

433
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 5: nuances to this, but like if a total is one forty,

434
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 5: you're generally going to see a first half total of

435
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 5: you know, give or take, I'm rounding your sixty five

436
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 5: second half total around seventy five. But like if you're

437
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 5: a huge underdog, a lot of times you're going to

438
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 5: come out and play slower, right, like really intense half

439
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 5: court defense, and you're trying to like kind of shorten

440
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 5: the game. Then you get down right in the second half,

441
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 5: and then you're trying to like maximize possessions, and then

442
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 5: you play faster. There's a lot of different there's a

443
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 5: lot of reasons. I mean this, We have scoring, we

444
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 5: have data for you know, I can't even tell you

445
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 5: the amount of college basketball games that we have in

446
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 5: history in our databases, but it's just basic distribution of scoring.

447
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 5: And there's many reasons why regardless of the spread that

448
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 5: they're the scoring is going to be you know, give

449
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,479
Speaker 5: or take, assume to be about you know, eight nine,

450
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 5: ten points higher in the second half. Part of it

451
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 5: is that is fouling at the end. But like if

452
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 5: you have a spread of you know, you could say,

453
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 5: if you have a spread of one and it's expected

454
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 5: to be like a super close game the entire time,

455
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 5: like then you have no failing, you get up no

456
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 5: failing until like the final five seconds. That's just part

457
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 5: of the equation. And you know, just because the spread

458
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 5: of seventeen doesn't mean there's no chance that notre name

459
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 5: is down nine or ten and starts failing at the end,

460
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 5: and then they're trying to maximize possessions. So there's a

461
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 5: lot of reasons why there's increased scoring on average in

462
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 5: the second half.

463
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, you're just handicapping the game, Like if you think

464
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 6: it's going to be closer than it doesn't matter as much.

465
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 6: Like as an example, Michigan State per due tonight is

466
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 6: one hundred and forty two and a half, but first

467
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,239
Speaker 6: half is sixty seven. Sixty seven times two does an

468
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:08,959
Speaker 6: equal one to forty two and a half. It's just

469
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 6: assuming that the second half has proportionally more scoring, which

470
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 6: is usually the case.

471
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:15,959
Speaker 7: Yep, Yeah, is that plasure?

472
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: Is that also a playable in the NCAA tournament with

473
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 1: the increase in the the desperation to win these games.

474
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 2: For sure, second and half over.

475
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean there's yeah, I mean the conference tournaments

476
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 5: NCIA tournament that you do have an increased chance of

477
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 5: fouls until death. Right now, you have to get in

478
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 5: like the perfect game, like you know, a certain type

479
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 5: of game state for that to happen. But you know

480
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,640
Speaker 5: you're not going to stop failing in your final game

481
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 5: of the season, or you might. You might, but you're

482
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 5: you're probably more likely to foul a couple extra possessions

483
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 5: than you might, say in a regular season game you

484
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 5: call off the dogs, but in the first in the

485
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 5: NCAA tournament, you're gonna see a lot of this. Books

486
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 5: have adjusted a bit. I'm not a huge totals player,

487
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 5: but first half unders. People love first half unders in

488
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 5: like the first round of the tournament. I'm sure Evan

489
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 5: will have this in his primer, but you have. There's

490
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 5: a lot of reasons why those can be or have

491
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 5: been profitable in the past in certain instances, especially with

492
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 5: the higher totals going with the first half under, but

493
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 5: books adjusted these over time. But like you have teams,

494
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 5: you're playing on a neutral court, right so you're playing

495
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 5: in like a venue with with new balls. There's you,

496
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 5: there's a you know, you might be playing with the

497
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 5: new ball, and it's the NCAA tournament, right the first game,

498
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 5: there's there's jitters, and you're playing at an odd time.

499
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 5: A lot of times people love the first half unders

500
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 5: of like early tips. But so yeah, the there's a

501
00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 5: little bit more of an adjustment for those first half

502
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 5: on I think now in the in the first round

503
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 5: of the tournament. But there's reasons why you would expect

504
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 5: decrease scoring early on, like just teams come out a

505
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 5: little tighter, that the scout, the defensive scout is really advanced.

506
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 5: But most importantly, you know, the time, the venue, the ball,

507
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 5: all those things can lead to slower starts.

508
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 6: Yes, it's twenty first half under NCAA tournament, so there's

509
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 6: something it's.

510
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think early early games.

511
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 1: That's that's the entire tournament, Evan, not just the first round.

512
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, early games. I think the first game of a

513
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 5: new of a of a you know, a new venue in.

514
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 7: The round of sixty four, eighty eight and sixty nine.

515
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 2: So yeah, let's go to Ryan.

516
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,199
Speaker 1: Ryan Zaritt asks the question in the mail bag, what

517
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: is your favorite Cinderella story in the history of March Madness.

518
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: Another March Madness question, Ryan's is FAU. It's a great option.

519
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: Mine would be the other South Florida team, FGCU, which

520
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 1: is not Stunk City twenty thirteen. I'm not far from

521
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: where I grew up in South Florida. I had no

522
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: idea this college even existed until they started making a

523
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 1: run in the NCAA tournament.

524
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 2: But that was that was a fun one.

525
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 4: To really serious, I did.

526
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 1: Not I had I think there were some people in

527
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: my graduating class that went to FGCU, but the letters

528
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: just went in one ear and out the other, and

529
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,959
Speaker 1: I did not recall that until they made a deep runs.

530
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 2: I think I have some friends that go there, but.

531
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 3: I use so many people that went to FGCU.

532
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 1: It's like West Palm Beach, I think is where it's at. Yeah,

533
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: so that's mine. FGCU. That was a ton of fun.

534
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,479
Speaker 1: Dunk City is stuck. You mentioned Kendro. What about you

535
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:48,959
Speaker 1: favorite singer story?

536
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,719
Speaker 3: I think Saint Peter's once again. Because of the memes,

537
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 3: do you guys remember the Doug Editt kid and people

538
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: every time they won a game, We're just making memes

539
00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 3: like you just.

540
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 4: Got beat by Doug. I loved that time.

541
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 3: It was a great time to be on the internet.

542
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 3: It was before AI. It was like when memes were

543
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 3: peak and people actually had thoughts for themselves. And the

544
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 3: whole Peacocks thing that was also epic. So I feel

545
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 3: like I have to say Saint Peter's that was my

546
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,719
Speaker 3: boy Doug, and then he left them immediately after that.

547
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 1: What a traitor somebody who has to say Loyola Chicago.

548
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: I think we're actually obligating something to say.

549
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,360
Speaker 4: I don't I hate Sister Jean.

550
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 2: Oh my god, jeez, hate Sister Jean.

551
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 3: I'm sick of them rolling her corpse out there.

552
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 4: That is not chill. Let her rest. Stop rolling her

553
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:37,159
Speaker 4: corpse out there.

554
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 2: That sounds like resentment towards the college, not towards.

555
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 7: She wanted to be there though she loved the team

556
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 7: so much.

557
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 4: Get it. But like when she was like.

558
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 2: She's a nun. You can't talk shit about nuns.

559
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 4: I have and I will.

560
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 2: Stucky, what about you, favorite Cinderella.

561
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 5: Saint Peter's one of my least favorite. Obviously, wife has

562
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 5: college bars here that are right around University Kentucky. They're

563
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 5: all university Kentucky. They do very well. When University Kentucky

564
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 5: wins in March, it's all anyone cares about the state.

565
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 5: I haven't been doing that much in the tournament lately,

566
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 5: but I that was a Thursday night game and there

567
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 5: was a couple people, a couple of people follow me

568
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 5: on Twitter like, Hey, we want to come sweat some

569
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 5: games with you at the bars in Lexington. So it

570
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 5: was like coming out. They drove from North Carolina, they

571
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 5: got to Lexington, they were coming out. I just said

572
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 5: you could stay in my place for the weekend. They

573
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 5: got to my place at like midnight on Thursday night.

574
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 5: Kentucky had lost to Saint Peter's. So we went out

575
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 5: on Saturday and it was Saint Peter's versus Mary State,

576
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 5: I think instead of Kentucky versus Marquette maybe or someone.

577
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 5: They've both got upset and the bar was empty. It

578
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 5: was awful. But yeah, that was one of my least

579
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 5: favorite I parta golf coast in the running for me.

580
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 5: I love that team. They were just so fun the

581
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 5: way that they played. But I'll go way back to

582
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:13,959
Speaker 5: oh seven George Mason. They went to the They were

583
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 5: an eleven seed that went and obviously gotta mention the

584
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 5: Butler teams. But that Mason run they beat Yukon and

585
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 5: the Elite eight in overtime. I think that was Rudy

586
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 5: Gay was on that team.

587
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 2: Uh, and.

588
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, that was a super Jim Larnega was the coach

589
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 5: when they went to the final four. That was one

590
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 5: of my favorite runs. And then, yeah, the Butler teams

591
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 5: were always fun. But yeah, I'll go with George Mason.

592
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 5: I think that was was that was that O seven

593
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 5: six O six? But was it like actual that was

594
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 5: the five six team?

595
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 7: You're right?

596
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that was fun. They were the I mean

597
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 5: the Colonial team eleven seed. Did you come as the

598
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 5: number one overall seed in the tournament? They knocked him

599
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 5: out in the Elite eight and they were they had

600
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 5: never won a tournament game the school before that year,

601
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 5: and then they went to the final four. That was

602
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 5: that was special. I don't know if we're gonna it's

603
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 5: gonna be really hard to get those types of stories

604
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 5: with the way that, uh everything works now, but shout out.

605
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 5: I think that Lewis and Tony Skin who's now the coach,

606
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 5: they were the stars of that team. But how about you, Evan?

607
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 6: I was gonna say George Mason. I think the one

608
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 6: you should probably mention. I mean, Davidson with Curry was

609
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 6: always fun in two thousand and eight. Uh, the one

610
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 6: I wasn't even born for that I've done like a

611
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 6: little bit of research on. That's really good is LSU

612
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 6: and eighty six eleven Seed beats the one, two and three,

613
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 6: which is pretty fun. I've seen video of it, which

614
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 6: is pretty cool. But I think Davidson and Butler are

615
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 6: at the two and George Mason was going to be mine.

616
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 6: I think VCU should get a little bit of love

617
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 6: as well in twenty eleven, but that was a.

618
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 7: Final four, I think so.

619
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 6: But I just remember first four to Final four and

620
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 6: they were like one of the first teams to do that,

621
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 6: so they should definitely get some love.

622
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 2: Barely Dickinson.

623
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 3: Also, there's a furniture store here where if the Yukon

624
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 3: men's and women's team both make the final, any furniture

625
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 3: you purchase between now and the end of like the

626
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 3: first couple rounds all your furnitures free free flix.

627
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 7: Some love for UMBC as well.

628
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 6: This is a ticket on them to win it all

629
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 6: that I took home that year when they beat Virginia

630
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 6: didn't cash, but fun to have.

631
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 2: How much.

632
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 4: Was it like a dollar?

633
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 7: Five bucks actually on them to win it all?

634
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 6: Eight thousand to one didn't end up cashing, So take

635
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 6: it home with.

636
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 2: Me, all right, Yeah, nice little souvenir.

637
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: The next question from Ryan was best sports movie your

638
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: favorite sports movie of all time? I will say, I

639
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: don't even know if this counts as a hot take

640
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: or if this is just common opinion. Baseball movies are

641
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: in a class of themselves. There's something about that. Sport

642
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: boxing is probably next, but baseball movies, the storytelling, the

643
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: way that the game, because it's slow, the game doesn't

644
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: feel like it doesn't take you out of the movie.

645
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 1: Football movies really mess with my head because you can't

646
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 1: simulate football. It looks goofy on screen. Basketball movies kind

647
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: of middle of the road. But there's something about the

648
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 1: storytelling and the actual real gameplay with in a baseball

649
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: movie that's more realistic that I think they stand out

650
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: above the rest. So whatever the answer is, for me,

651
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: it's definitely a baseball movie. Probably League of their Own

652
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: is my favorite. I watch that movie again and again

653
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: and again. I think that that's my answer. Kendro what

654
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: about you.

655
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 3: I have two answers. One benchwarmers. I don't know if

656
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 3: you guys have seen that movie. Incredible, incredible movie, and then.

657
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 4: I have been laughing at me.

658
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 3: And then two, I'm gonna go bend it like Beckham

659
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 3: because it was like a girl's soccer movie that I

660
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 3: loved when I was a kid. And Kiera Knightley in

661
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 3: that movie was like my sexual awakening her and she

662
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 3: go from Kim possible.

663
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 4: So those are my two answers.

664
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 2: It stucky.

665
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 5: I don't really I'm not a huge movie guy. Like

666
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 5: I told you, I've never watched a movie more than once,

667
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 5: but that's a fact. Nostalgia I'd probably go. I mean,

668
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 5: Moneyball was really good. I thought that was a really

669
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 5: good movie. But nostalgia, I'll go Varsity Blues. That's a

670
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 5: rip James Vanderbeek. By the way, the nineteen there should

671
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 5: be a movie about this nineteen eighty six hours You

672
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 5: team like they that they had three seven footers on

673
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 5: their team before the season started. By the time the

674
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 5: tournament came, they had zero. I think one was academically

675
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 5: an out and left the team. One got hurt. They

676
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:18,719
Speaker 5: had to move a guard to center. They had they

677
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 5: had to like cancel a game, a national televised game

678
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 5: because and they had like a long outbreak of chicken

679
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 5: pox on the team. And then they became an eleven

680
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 5: seat that beat a one, two and three and they

681
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 5: finished nine to nine in the SEC. I mean that

682
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 5: maybe there is a book about them, but uh so,

683
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 5: I'll go Varsity Blues.

684
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 2: Sandlot deserves them engine as well in this childhood.

685
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:41,959
Speaker 4: Believe you haven't seen Bench Warmer's Kravit.

686
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 2: I seen it.

687
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 4: Do you know who John Heater is? Napoleon Dynamite?

688
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 2: Was this like? Is this an old movie or is

689
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 2: this Yeah.

690
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 3: It's like early two thousands. It's like a comedy with

691
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 3: the guy who played Napoleon Dynamite. And then I think

692
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 3: Rob Schneider is in.

693
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: It and likes it. This immediately gets thrown in the trash.

694
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 4: I mean a human being. But like back in the day,

695
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 4: his movies were good.

696
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 5: Let's see, it's a good movie. SI on letterbox thirteen

697
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 5: percent rotten Tomatoes.

698
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 7: That's why I had to laugh when she said this.

699
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 4: Evan's so funny.

700
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 2: Evan, what's your what's your favorite sports movie?

701
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 7: I remember The Titans is really good. Rudy's really good.

702
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 6: I went to Indiana, so I have to say, who's yours.

703
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 6: Field of Dreams is also fantastic. Those are probably my

704
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,240
Speaker 6: top three, Rudy. The Field of Dreams Remember the Titans,

705
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 6: feels like a decent top three.

706
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 2: That's what I mean about baseball movies.

707
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: Field of Dreams, the fact that you can you could

708
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: just make them out rush more out of Field of Dreams.

709
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 2: League sand Lot, League of their own if.

710
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,360
Speaker 7: You build it the news. The quotes in that movie

711
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 7: are just fantastic.

712
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 4: I remember that I love this movie.

713
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 2: Blindside's all right, Yeah, I remember one that I loved

714
00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 2: as a kid.

715
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 5: That's probably so bad. I kind of want watch it,

716
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 5: watch it again. It's probably so bad. And it's so

717
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 5: angels in the outfield. Sure, yes, there's just angels in

718
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 5: the outfield. Plays and stuff for the angels like that

719
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 5: is such an insane I remember loving it when I

720
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 5: was like six, but I don't I can't imagine that

721
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 5: age as well, when you're like watching it if you're older.

722
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 3: Jeremy Maguire, Jerem, I can't believe you guys haven't seen Benchwarmers.

723
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 5: It's so angel outfield.

724
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 4: I haven't seen it.

725
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 2: I had it on VHS when I was a kid.

726
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,840
Speaker 1: The Blindside kind of it takes away from the movie

727
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 1: that it turns out that these parents were kind of

728
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:43,879
Speaker 1: pieces of ship.

729
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,240
Speaker 4: Oh totally. But it's a good movie.

730
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like you can't, you can't watch that now

731
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 1: because but.

732
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 4: It's because she has no idea what's going on.

733
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 2: Let's go.

734
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 5: The next one is for Fight Lights, although that's one

735
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 5: of my favor shows.

736
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: The next one's from Jessica. This one's for Kendra specifically.

737
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: She said that she saw you post recently about all

738
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: the jobs that you had in sports that got you

739
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: to where you are today, which is having this fun

740
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,439
Speaker 1: conversation with us on a podcast in college. How did

741
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: you balance all of the nighttime and weekend work with

742
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: still having fun and when did you have that?

743
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can do this for a living moment.

744
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 3: Okay, this is a really really good question one if

745
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 3: you are a college student or about to be a

746
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 3: college student, my number one piece of advice for you is,

747
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 3: outside of just asking for opportunities from people that can

748
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 3: give them to you get a job at a bar,

749
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 3: because that way you're making money, you get to see

750
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 3: your friends, you get to hang out with your friends,

751
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 3: you don't have fomo or anything.

752
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 4: You can help your friends get into the bar.

753
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 3: Whatever I made money, wasn't hung over the next day

754
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 3: and was still hanging out with my friends.

755
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 4: By getting a.

756
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 3: Job at our favorite bar, that is like the best

757
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 3: thing that I did for myself as far as being

758
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 3: able to to like balance my social life, making money

759
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 3: and work and my yeah, I can do this for

760
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 3: a living moment, I think is.

761
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 4: A little bit different.

762
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 3: I've told this story in ninety eight five before, so

763
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 3: if you listen to me there and you listen to

764
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 3: me here, you've probably heard this before. But in that

765
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 3: same post, I was talking about how I used to

766
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 3: call into ten ten Excel, which is the local sports

767
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 3: radio station in Boston or in a jacksonvill when I

768
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 3: was a kid.

769
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 4: And during the World Cup when I.

770
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 3: Was in fifth grade, I believe they were doing a

771
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 3: giveaway around Mother's Day for a gift card for flowers,

772
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,319
Speaker 3: and I was I'm a huge soccer fan, always have been,

773
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 3: and they were asking all of the guys to answer

774
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 3: soccer questions to win this gift card. And I went

775
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 3: to win my mom flowers for Mother's Day, and I

776
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 3: knew all the answers, so my dad like handed me

777
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 3: the phone and he was like, all right, smart ass,

778
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 3: like call in and answer the questions.

779
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,360
Speaker 4: So I called in and after.

780
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 3: Like four or five grown men getting the questions wrong, me,

781
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 3: a fifth grader, got all of my questions right and

782
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 3: won my mom flowers. And that was kind of the

783
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 3: first moment that I was like, whoa, Like girls can

784
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 3: know this stuff too, And kind of from that moment

785
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 3: on was like when I knew what I wanted to

786
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 3: do so much so that like when I had my

787
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 3: john plant surgery, they could have just moved all of

788
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 3: my teeth over, but since I knew I wanted to

789
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 3: be in broadcasting, like my parents made the decision to

790
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:18,280
Speaker 3: put a permanent, like proper implant into my joh instead

791
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,439
Speaker 3: of doing the easier thing and like moving everything over

792
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 3: because I know and I wanted to do this since

793
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 3: I was in fifth grade.

794
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: That's crazy that you've known that you wanted to be

795
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: in broadcasting since you were ten.

796
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

797
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is just me speaking from

798
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,360
Speaker 1: personal experience, but I feel for a lot of people

799
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: it's something that kind of smacks you over the head

800
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: in adulthood that's like, hey, this could be a career path.

801
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: But that's crazy that you knew that from the beginning.

802
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 1: What a work up, DJ Stuck. He knew that he

803
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: wanted to be a degenerate when he was ten years old.

804
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: Definitely had that scouted. I do believe there is a

805
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: question about the first thing that we bet on, so

806
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: I do want to get to that too. Actually that

807
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 1: is the next one. This is from a him in Mexico,

808
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,760
Speaker 1: New Mexico. Sorry, no things getting old hairy in Mexico

809
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: right now? Anyway, Can any of you remember the first

810
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 1: bet that you ever made, or maybe one early in

811
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: your life that still sticks with you as a great

812
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: betting memory? Stucky, first bet ever? Kendrick, could you guess

813
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: the age that he's about to spit out to us.

814
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 3: I'm going to say like sixteen in some like Billy

815
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 3: Parking Lot with some books.

816
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna got eight years old in the playground now.

817
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 5: The first one I can remember was when I would

818
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 5: have been like, I bet my dad. My me and

819
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 5: my best friend were away with my dad and my

820
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:47,720
Speaker 5: best friend's dad and our dads were best friends too.

821
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 5: We bet them. And my dad is a Duke fan,

822
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 5: and I used to bet my dad like twenty bucks

823
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 5: that the Eagles and Duke would lose like every game

824
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 5: through the nineties, when I don't, but I mean when

825
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:01,439
Speaker 5: I was like eight, nine, ten, But I remember this bet.

826
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 5: I would think I was thirteen. I was in middle school.

827
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 5: I bet them, me and my friend bet our dad's

828
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 5: fifty bucks. And it was a horrible bet because it's

829
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 5: fifty bucks straight up that Connecticut would beat Duke in

830
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 5: ninety nine in the National Championship, and they did, but

831
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:28,760
Speaker 5: they were like ten point dolls. We got horrendous odds.

832
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 5: Can you pull up what were the odds on that, Evan,

833
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 5: Can you pull that up? I think they were like

834
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 5: catching them. They were like nine point underdogs that do

835
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 5: that Duke teams I time. Uh, that was the first

836
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 5: one that I could remember. But then so then I

837
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 5: started maybe by because I won this bet of this underdog.

838
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 5: That was that one outright. I went down like eighth, ninth,

839
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:57,719
Speaker 5: tenth grade, like doing the dumbest bets like everyone does

840
00:40:57,760 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 5: when they first start betting. I have no idea what

841
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:04,760
Speaker 5: they're doing, but I remember remember opening uh a boadog

842
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:10,399
Speaker 5: account and then would bet nothing but pleasers, which are

843
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 5: reverse teasers where you would just sell points. You would

844
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 5: just sell points on each side and would just lose

845
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 5: constantly until I decided I wanted to try and take

846
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 5: it serious, and then that was the whole endeavor. But

847
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,360
Speaker 5: that was the first one that I can remember like

848
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:34,879
Speaker 5: where it was actual cash, and I remember we put

849
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 5: it up like we had our I think we had

850
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 5: like our allowance money, and then we got it at

851
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 5: the end, but we got terrible lot. It was probably

852
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 5: one of the best with the worst bets of over

853
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:45,359
Speaker 5: made in my life.

854
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 2: But it one.

855
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, Connecticut even money to win that game, catching nine.

856
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 2: And a half on that one. When did you start?

857
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:54,800
Speaker 2: When did you actually start betting?

858
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 1: I think that's a question that a lot of people,

859
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 1: if they don't know the answer to, would love to know.

860
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 5: I mean, I was like I just said, I was

861
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 5: like no, But I.

862
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 2: Don't mean that.

863
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:05,240
Speaker 1: I mean when you that sort of the same question

864
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: for Kendra, When did you have that moment, that aha

865
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: moment where you go, I think I could do this

866
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: for a living. I think I could make a career

867
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: out of this. When did that click for you?

868
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 5: I don't think there's like a moment, just iterative. Over time,

869
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 5: you just get better and better and obviously as I

870
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,800
Speaker 5: get older and smarter, and like, I just started to

871
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 5: take it suit more serious. I would. I've always followed

872
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 5: sports closely, and then I started posting on like forums

873
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 5: with write ups. But then, you know, obviously I went

874
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 5: to I went to college, was in finance, revetus analysts.

875
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 5: I got my CFA Masters and finance, and like, I

876
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 5: became more. I became just a much more intelligent person.

877
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 5: And uh, but I was tired of losing, so I,

878
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 5: you know, would and talk to people, talk to winning better,

879
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:05,239
Speaker 5: just become better over time. Still a process, process every day.

880
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 5: It's one of the things I love about it. I mean,

881
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:15,320
Speaker 5: I'm talking about five years ago, and I'm like, the

882
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 5: goal the gold is like the gold mine is to

883
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 5: hit like fifty five percent. Like You're you're never gonna

884
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 5: get hit one hundred percent. You're never going to master

885
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 5: this completely. And you're like the markets are getting more efficient.

886
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 5: Things change sports change rules, change marks become more efficient.

887
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 5: You have to adapt. It's a free battle, and I

888
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 5: love that every day is different, every game is different.

889
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:47,799
Speaker 5: Pete Carroll, I never get tired of it. I still

890
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 5: love the sweat. Some people live been bedding forever and

891
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 5: I hate the sweat. I love the sweat I have

892
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 5: to watch.

893
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,440
Speaker 4: I hate it. I hate it.

894
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:57,280
Speaker 7: It's a great feeling.

895
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 5: I love the I love the grind, love the pre

896
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 5: I actually love like the grind of like all of

897
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,879
Speaker 5: the work, even more than the sweat. But I love

898
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 5: the sweat too. So yeah, so labor of love. When

899
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 5: I stopped love, when I stopped loving it, I'll stop

900
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 5: doing it.

901
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: I took a big step in my sports betting last night.

902
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 1: I had about three bets going in the NBA, and

903
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 1: I was watching the one one of the games that

904
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 1: I did not have a wager on because of just

905
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: my general interest in the game itself, which is very rare.

906
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 1: I think that's the first time I've ever done that

907
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 1: where I've had action and chose to watch a game

908
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: I had no action on. That feels like sports betting

909
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: growth for me. That was. That was a big That

910
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 1: was and that was just a few hours ago. Yeah,

911
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: thank you very much. Yeah, that sort of you mentioned

912
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,840
Speaker 1: always learning that self. One of the things I'm picking

913
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: up is that I used to always think you just

914
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 1: had to have this unwavering self confidence in order to

915
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: bet at a high level.

916
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 2: But it's the.

917
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,800
Speaker 1: Balance of self confidence and self doubt. If you don't

918
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,720
Speaker 1: have self doubt, you are going to flame out and fail.

919
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 1: You have to constantly question whether or not you're actually

920
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 1: good at this. Otherwise your your ego is gonna get

921
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,480
Speaker 1: too bloated and then and then you're gonna flop and

922
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,399
Speaker 1: then you lose all of your confidence because you've tied

923
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 1: your identity to this false sense of confidence.

924
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 2: That's my psycho.

925
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, the mental side of it is even it's

926
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:26,720
Speaker 5: just as hard as losing.

927
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 7: Figuring out like why you lose to me?

928
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, then you don't want to be too overconfident, but

929
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 5: you also don't want to be you don't want to

930
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,400
Speaker 5: have too little confidence. It's just like because you go

931
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 5: on a losing streak, right, like you can't get gun shy.

932
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 5: You also just can't say like, oh this isn't working,

933
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:47,879
Speaker 5: I'm gonna scrap everything. And you have to understand also,

934
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 5: like that's that's where map comes in, Like under like

935
00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 5: you just said, understanding of why there's good. You're gonna

936
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 5: go through months, seasons, years where you lose, like's gonna happen.

937
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 5: Then you have to determine, Okay, what do I have

938
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 5: to change or do I have to change anything? Is

939
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,799
Speaker 5: this this a variance or not? And then dealing with

940
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 5: the streaks, is that's something I'm I'm pretty good at now.

941
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 5: It eats me alive when because I know that people

942
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:16,879
Speaker 5: follow me. That's what I hate.

943
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 4: But like that's what I was just gonna bring up.

944
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 5: But I've I've seen every single streak you can imagine.

945
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:26,359
Speaker 5: I'm like, oh, in eighteen days, couldn't you know month,

946
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 5: like a whole month where I just seemed like years

947
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 5: where nothing goes There's a whole year where and almost

948
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:34,919
Speaker 5: everything goes against you. Then you have a year where

949
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 5: like everything goes for you. So yeah, just staying like

950
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 5: even keeled. I'm a pretty logical person. I think it's important.

951
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:49,800
Speaker 5: But yeah, there's that so much, so much comes with experience.

952
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 5: It's crazy. But like you're you're I'm never even gonna

953
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 5: be come close to like knowing getting to the point

954
00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 5: where I want to get to. But just like every

955
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:03,439
Speaker 5: day you kind of add to your bank and Mike,

956
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 5: You'll just you just keep learning. It's but you're you're

957
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 5: like you're just talking like really small gains and you're

958
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,000
Speaker 5: but the market's also adjusting. It's a crazy race.

959
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kendre, you mentioned the I saw you react to that,

960
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 1: the the psychological mental health aspect of actually being a

961
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: front facing sports better that people rely on. Not that

962
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 1: I expect anyone to cry tears for us, don't, but

963
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:36,720
Speaker 1: that is that it that is that part tougher losing

964
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,800
Speaker 1: for other people than losing for yourself.

965
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that that's the part that sticks with me,

966
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 3: is that like, no way, when you're just doing it

967
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:47,360
Speaker 3: for yourself, it's like fun and like you're just tracking

968
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:48,960
Speaker 3: you and nobody else and nothing matters.

969
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 4: But then when you become.

970
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,359
Speaker 3: Like a stucky of this or you were me or

971
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 3: someone bigger than us or like whatever, it's like knowing

972
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 3: people are putting their harder and dollar on something that

973
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 3: you have said, and then they get upset with you,

974
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 3: or you just feel like you're letting someone down, or

975
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 3: people yell at you or get mean or whatever. It's

976
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 3: like I think that that's the hardest part is like

977
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 3: not realizing that one were people on the other side

978
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 3: of the screen, but two, like we're also trying our hardest.

979
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 4: Then like three, you don't.

980
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 3: Have to follow us, but like at the same time,

981
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 3: like we put ourselves in this position. So it's like,

982
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 3: I know that I did this to myself, and I

983
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 3: wouldn't change my career or this job or anything. But

984
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 3: like knowing that you disappoint people or like lose them

985
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:33,759
Speaker 3: money literally keeps me up at night.

986
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:34,839
Speaker 2: Yeah.

987
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 1: And I would just say to anybody out there, and

988
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 1: I've I've had to have this conversation with myself. Fall

989
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:41,960
Speaker 1: any whoever it is that you follow, and if it's

990
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,399
Speaker 1: multiple people, if it's one person, don't fall in love

991
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,839
Speaker 1: with their picks, fall in love with their process. If

992
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 1: you fall in love with the process, then I think one,

993
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 1: you're not living and dying with every selection. It's the Yeah,

994
00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,879
Speaker 1: it's the journey that gets you to that pick. Yeah,

995
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,400
Speaker 1: and somebody else's process can also help you make a

996
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 1: different selection that they didn't even necessarily tee up.

997
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 4: So that's yeah.

998
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:07,800
Speaker 2: I would just say that to anybody listening. It's process

999
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 2: over results.

1000
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 3: I always tell people on my Saturday show, I'm not

1001
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,799
Speaker 3: here to just tell you things for you to follow them.

1002
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,439
Speaker 3: If I say something that sells you want to pick,

1003
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 3: take it. If I say something that makes you want

1004
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 3: to get on the other side, there's a reason that

1005
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 3: that happened. Take that side of it. Like I tell people,

1006
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 3: do not just blindly follow me. I'm going to tell

1007
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,359
Speaker 3: you how I arrived to this thought, and if you agree, good.

1008
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,400
Speaker 3: If you disagree, take the other side of it. My

1009
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,440
Speaker 3: job is to not just sit here and say take this, this,

1010
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 3: and this. I'm here to show you my process. You

1011
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 3: find your own. We bounce off of each other and

1012
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:40,279
Speaker 3: maybe we get some wins.

1013
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,240
Speaker 1: So I wanted to share two stories on this question.

1014
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,480
Speaker 1: My first I don't remember my first bet, but I

1015
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:49,840
Speaker 1: remember the first routine that I had in betting was

1016
00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 1: I would catch up with my grandmother who lived in Baltimore,

1017
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:57,240
Speaker 1: over the FOT phone on Monday nights and after school.

1018
00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:59,799
Speaker 2: We would talk about whatever's going on in our.

1019
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:01,880
Speaker 1: Lives, and then at the end of the call, we

1020
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 1: would make a bet on the Monday night football game.

1021
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,240
Speaker 4: It wasn't spread related.

1022
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,280
Speaker 1: I would take a side, she would take a side,

1023
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 1: and then I would run down stairs and I would

1024
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,400
Speaker 1: bet my dad the other side.

1025
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:17,959
Speaker 2: So I was basically like arbitraging at a very.

1026
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 7: You were running a boiler room in your own apartment.

1027
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 7: That's what it really was happening.

1028
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 1: I was guaranteeing myself some victories. Yes, and then my

1029
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 1: and then win or lose, my grandmother would send me

1030
00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 1: five bucks. So it was definitely ROI wise, best sports

1031
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 1: betting operation I ever had. And then the most memorable

1032
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:42,720
Speaker 1: memorable bet I ever made was twenty thirteen. I bet

1033
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 1: after FSU beat Pitt in the season opener that was

1034
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:51,360
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston's debut. I made a bet that day that

1035
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,400
Speaker 1: they would win the National Championship. I was working at

1036
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 1: a bar at the time. It was a pool bar outside,

1037
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 1: and it was the night of the National Champmpionship game

1038
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:05,720
Speaker 1: against Auburn, and it was freezing outside, and I kept

1039
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 1: calling nobody was outside. I had zero customers. Even management

1040
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 1: wouldn't come outside because it was so cold, and I

1041
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:16,040
Speaker 1: kept calling the inside. This was at a hotel, so

1042
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,759
Speaker 1: I was like off the beaten path at this pool bar,

1043
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:21,760
Speaker 1: and I kept calling my manager saying, will you please

1044
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:25,880
Speaker 1: close the bar? Nobody's here, and they would refuse to

1045
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: do it, and so I took it upon myself to

1046
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:35,360
Speaker 1: close the bar with nobody approving that, and I raced

1047
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 1: home and I caught the entire game. I caught a

1048
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: lot of shit for it at work. Didn't end up

1049
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: getting fired for that. But then FSU won on the

1050
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,920
Speaker 1: final play and it was worth every single penny. So

1051
00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 1: that that's one that I'll never forget.

1052
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 2: Kendrew, you said you have another one.

1053
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 4: I have two thoughts on this quickly.

1054
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 3: The first bet that I can ever remember making was

1055
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 3: not a sports bet my dad, and it took me

1056
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,760
Speaker 3: to get barbecue at this place in Florida called Bono's.

1057
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 4: I don't you might know.

1058
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:08,280
Speaker 3: Bonos Crabits now, Okay, it's like a Florida like North Florida,

1059
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,920
Speaker 3: probably barbecue chain. And I was probably in like second

1060
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,880
Speaker 3: or third grade, and I wanted the big plate of

1061
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 3: barbecue cheese fries and my dad was like, there's no

1062
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 3: way in hell you're gonna eat an entire.

1063
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,920
Speaker 4: Adult like barbecue cheese fry.

1064
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:24,399
Speaker 3: And I was like, wanta bet and he was like, yeah,

1065
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 3: if you eat this entire plate, I'll give you twenty

1066
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,080
Speaker 3: bucks and I'll buy you a new build of Bear.

1067
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 3: And so I ate the whole plate of cheese fries.

1068
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,880
Speaker 3: I said, okay, done, and he goes. He was like

1069
00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:35,840
Speaker 3: in shock, and then I threw everything back up on

1070
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,800
Speaker 3: the table and I was like, you didn't say I

1071
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 3: had to keep it down, and so he gave me

1072
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:42,399
Speaker 3: my twenty bucks and then came home two days later

1073
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 3: with a pig from Build a Bear named Cheese Fry.

1074
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:47,840
Speaker 3: And that is the first time I ever remember gambling

1075
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,960
Speaker 3: on anything in my life or betting on anything.

1076
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 4: And then when I started.

1077
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 3: To get into sports bedding, I was working at the

1078
00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 3: bar that I was at at Auburn, and I always

1079
00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:58,719
Speaker 3: used to come in in.

1080
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 4: Like sports gears.

1081
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 3: So whether it was like Jags or like a team

1082
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 3: that I worked for or covered or like whatever, I

1083
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 3: would just come in sports gear because I've always collected it.

1084
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:08,560
Speaker 3: And guys would always be like, do you even know

1085
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:10,040
Speaker 3: whose shirt you're wearing? Do you even know whose jersey

1086
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 3: you're wearing? Blah blah blah. And so I started betting

1087
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 3: with those guys on the games that were playing that

1088
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,240
Speaker 3: night on the TVs and the bars, and I started

1089
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 3: fleecing people.

1090
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:20,319
Speaker 4: I even bet a kid one time.

1091
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 3: I was like, if you win, I'll give you free

1092
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:23,920
Speaker 3: drinks for the rest of the semester, but if I win,

1093
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 3: you have to give me your entire adderall prescription for

1094
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 3: the month. And so that was kind of how I

1095
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 3: got into sports betting. Was like guys coming in not

1096
00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 3: thinking I knew dick about sports, and I would be like,

1097
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,799
Speaker 3: all right, let's bet on this game right now, and

1098
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:40,560
Speaker 3: they would have to leave me big tips and I

1099
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:42,040
Speaker 3: would either have to give them free drinks for the

1100
00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 3: weekend or whatever. And so that's kind of how I

1101
00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:48,839
Speaker 3: got into like the sports betting world was fleecing men

1102
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 3: at the bar that I worked at.

1103
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 1: I think that that we should continue that trend with

1104
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 1: your haters in the comment section.

1105
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:55,919
Speaker 4: That would be fun.

1106
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kendra versus or haters? Can we write that down

1107
00:53:59,040 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: as an idea for me?

1108
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:01,800
Speaker 4: I really like that, that would be fun.

1109
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 1: Let's let's wrap this with Lawrence from Topeka. What was

1110
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 1: your first kiss and how did it happen? Obviously everybody

1111
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:16,200
Speaker 1: wants to know, Stucky and I's answer to this more

1112
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 1: than anybody mine.

1113
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:21,600
Speaker 2: Her name was Michelle. She was my friend.

1114
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,399
Speaker 1: I was a dork in middle school and so I

1115
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 1: just I just needed to get it out of the way.

1116
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:30,600
Speaker 1: And I think I may have asked her and she

1117
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:32,879
Speaker 1: said yes, and it was.

1118
00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:35,399
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1119
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 2: It was just you know, like, hey, could you help

1120
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:38,000
Speaker 2: me out.

1121
00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:40,359
Speaker 1: I gotta kind of like get over this hump, and

1122
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 1: we like walked to the stop sign. It was very

1123
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: romantic and then we never kissed again. So I don't

1124
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:47,839
Speaker 1: even know if that means that I was bad at

1125
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 1: it or what. But uh, that's that's my story, Stucky.

1126
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,160
Speaker 2: Yes, that's all I need.

1127
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:57,640
Speaker 4: Taste of the cravts I was.

1128
00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 5: I was in middle school. My my friend, my neighbor,

1129
00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:03,400
Speaker 5: one of my best friends. It was my next door neighbor,

1130
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 5: his older sister, and it.

1131
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:07,920
Speaker 4: Was your best friend's older sister.

1132
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, we were just we were playing. We were playing.

1133
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 5: We were playing truth or there, and then.

1134
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,359
Speaker 2: The original sports betting game to.

1135
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:22,759
Speaker 5: Get this piece of grass, I put a long piece

1136
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 5: of grass in my mouth and I said, I, dare

1137
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 5: you get this piece of grass out of my mouth?

1138
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 5: So it's kind of implied, and then we kissed. Uh

1139
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 5: that was That was my first kiss.

1140
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:40,319
Speaker 8: A trick, I guess, such a Kentucky thing to do too.

1141
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 8: This is Philly, Okay, it was foreshadowing, Evan, what about you.

1142
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:48,720
Speaker 7: Definitely a camp.

1143
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:51,240
Speaker 6: I went to a bunch of camp sleep boy camps

1144
00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 6: and stuff like that. I was probably like in middle school.

1145
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,279
Speaker 6: I honestly don't remember who, but I definitely was like

1146
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 6: the Canteen or something like that. I just remember having

1147
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,120
Speaker 6: the feeling and yeah, because.

1148
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,160
Speaker 7: I also wanted your old boys school. I also want

1149
00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 7: to an old boys school.

1150
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,239
Speaker 6: So it had to have been like either at like

1151
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 6: a dance or like meeting somebody outside of it, or

1152
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 6: like at a sleep boy camp.

1153
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 2: But it was definitely we're not here to judge, Okay.

1154
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 6: Nona, I had to explain though. I mean, you got

1155
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,439
Speaker 6: to get into a little bit of detail there, all.

1156
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: Right, Kenja. Obviously nobody cares. Yeah, nobody cares about our

1157
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:23,000
Speaker 1: answer to this question.

1158
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:23,520
Speaker 2: Go ahead.

1159
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:26,640
Speaker 3: I was really close with the baseball team in school,

1160
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,080
Speaker 3: and so I always would hang out with them after school.

1161
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 4: We would like walk home and hang out at.

1162
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:36,880
Speaker 3: These twins Michael and Jimmy's house, and I like climbed

1163
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:38,319
Speaker 3: up in a tree and was like hanging out with

1164
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:41,720
Speaker 3: Michael in the tree, and he was once again truth

1165
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:43,319
Speaker 3: dared me to kiss him.

1166
00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:44,840
Speaker 4: So I was in a tree.

1167
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:48,600
Speaker 3: Kissed him and his dad My entire life has been

1168
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,240
Speaker 3: at the local sports anchor of my hometown radio station

1169
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 3: in Jacksonville, and he's made me regret it every single

1170
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:58,000
Speaker 3: day since with his stupid takes. I can't believe that

1171
00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:00,000
Speaker 3: I gave his kid the satisfaction of kissing me.

1172
00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:02,799
Speaker 2: The power of Truth or Dare?

1173
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:08,680
Speaker 1: And yeah, does anyone have a memory of the truth

1174
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 1: side of that game? Any any quality memory that comes

1175
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,000
Speaker 1: from truth or dare is comes out of the dare side?

1176
00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 4: I can't.

1177
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,560
Speaker 3: I mean yes, but mine. What do you guys know

1178
00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:20,600
Speaker 3: what chat roulette is?

1179
00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:22,520
Speaker 7: I've heard of it.

1180
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 3: My friends and I used to love chat roulette when

1181
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 3: we were in middle school, and like we would just go

1182
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:28,880
Speaker 3: and like do stupid stuff.

1183
00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:32,160
Speaker 4: And I remember whenever the guys who would pop up

1184
00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 4: with their.

1185
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 3: Like penis out would come up, we would like purposely.

1186
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:36,439
Speaker 4: Fuck with them.

1187
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:38,640
Speaker 3: And we decided to play truth or Dare with one

1188
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:40,600
Speaker 3: of the guys one time, and we just like made

1189
00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:42,280
Speaker 3: fun of him and then he hung up on us,

1190
00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 3: and it was like a truth, tell me a truth

1191
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 3: about something, and like we were like here, penis sucks.

1192
00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,320
Speaker 4: Shout out the chat roulette days.

1193
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,440
Speaker 5: Yes, by the way, before we get out my my

1194
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:57,760
Speaker 5: weird question, Hey, this is a dumb question.

1195
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,520
Speaker 7: Ask you a personal question kind of question?

1196
00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:03,920
Speaker 2: Is that is question?

1197
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 5: What is one tip or hot take you have on food?

1198
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 5: So like advice you're like you need to do this

1199
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 5: when you're cooking this, or like something that everyone needs

1200
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 5: to do that they do do not do like I

1201
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 5: I'll throw out mine. So like salt, people use salt

1202
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:25,760
Speaker 5: A lot of this is to me im proved by salt,

1203
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 5: especially when you're cooking pasta. Put a ton of salt

1204
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 5: in the passable. You think it's enough, it's not. Put

1205
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,480
Speaker 5: in more. Same thing with butter. You wonder how potatoes

1206
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 5: are good at the restaurants. Like you're making mastraata, put

1207
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 5: in butter. You think it's enough, putting more and then

1208
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,920
Speaker 5: double that. Lemon. People don't know how much let just

1209
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:43,400
Speaker 5: a little bit of lemon can make a dish. Use

1210
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,920
Speaker 5: chicken thighs over chicken breast. Chicken thies are so much better,

1211
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 5: it's incredible. Use good olive oil if you can. Basic

1212
00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 5: olive oil is trash. And then the most part. I

1213
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 5: want to slow cook your scrambled eggs, like just literally

1214
00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:58,800
Speaker 5: take the pan, put it on really low, move it

1215
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:02,600
Speaker 5: off the burner, put it on, take your time. There's

1216
00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 5: so much better. It's worth worth the weight those her

1217
00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 5: mind of sucky basic cooking things. But you have one

1218
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:13,000
Speaker 5: thing where you're like you gotta do this, or.

1219
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 4: I was I didn't take this as like you have

1220
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:19,040
Speaker 4: to do this. You said, like a food hot take.

1221
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:20,520
Speaker 3: And the first thing that came to my mind was

1222
00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:23,720
Speaker 3: that chicken palm is mid as fuck. It's so there's

1223
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,640
Speaker 3: it's like nearly impossible to have a bad one. Like

1224
00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:30,000
Speaker 3: the drop off between a bad chicken parm and a

1225
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 3: good chicken parm is not that significant because it's literally

1226
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:34,600
Speaker 3: just fried chicken, cheese and sauce.

1227
00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:36,160
Speaker 4: Like, it's not that hard to fuck up.

1228
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:40,080
Speaker 5: Yes, but you can have exceptional chicken parm like that.

1229
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:42,360
Speaker 4: One's not that far off from the best one.

1230
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 5: No, But like chicken parm, you homemake the pasta, You

1231
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:51,560
Speaker 5: make the sauce, and you know how to cook the chicken, right,

1232
00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,560
Speaker 5: But homemade pasta can make all the difference.

1233
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:54,440
Speaker 4: Overrated.

1234
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:57,320
Speaker 1: I think Kendrin might be onto something here. I do

1235
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 1: like a good frozen chicken palm, it's.

1236
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 4: Not that far off from the best one you've ever had.

1237
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:07,800
Speaker 1: It's it's definitely a drop off, but it's you're right,

1238
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:10,560
Speaker 1: the drop off is not that steep. I think mine

1239
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:17,400
Speaker 1: would be don't don't cut into your meat when you're.

1240
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:16,920
Speaker 2: The end, all right, That'll be.

1241
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,000
Speaker 1: If you're grilling a steak, if you're grilling burgers, do

1242
01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:22,520
Speaker 1: not poke and prod your meat.

1243
01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 2: That is the number one piece of advice that I.

1244
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 7: That's a good quote card for this episode.
