We've got 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: Final Four on the brain. We've got two teams that 4 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: punched their tickets there. We've got the Donkies, Dookie's going 5 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: back to the Final four, Florida going to the Final four, 6 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: and man, what a game. I'll tell you what. Duke 7 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: was very impressive, won by twenty, smacked around Alabama. But 8 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: Florida coming back. They were down nine points with under 9 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: three minutes to go and they got caught fire from 10 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: three somehow won the game. But Florida, it was looking bad. 11 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: It was looking bad for Florida down the stretch there, 12 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: and they found a way. Man Walton Clayton Junior is 13 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 1: the real deal. Good morning morning. How are we doing here? 14 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: If the Paullen doesn't kill me before the end of 15 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 2: the show, it would be nice here. If you hear 16 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: me sniffling and you hear me are coughing and wheezing, 17 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 2: it's because the Paul and count might cripple night my, my, 18 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 2: my respiratory system by the end of the show. 19 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 3: Here it is. 20 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,119 Speaker 2: It's bad, guys, So I'm glad to be with you 21 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 2: great games last night. I will kind of start off 22 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: with a with a with a gripe about sports, a 23 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 2: wagering last night, is it? 24 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 4: Okay? Yeah? 25 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: I had duke team total over ninety and a half points. Okay, yeah, 26 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 2: I laddered them all the way up to one hundred. Wow, 27 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 2: they just decided to stop trying to score for the 28 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: last entire second half of the game and still at 29 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 2: eighty five points, Brian, they just stopped trying. 30 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 4: We all saw it. 31 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 2: They just they slowed the game down to very halt. 32 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 2: They took all thirty second of the shot clock and 33 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,839 Speaker 2: still had eighty five points out trying to score. 34 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: The second half of the game they scored. 35 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 2: They scored forty points after the game without trying, and 36 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 2: because the game was so spread out at the end, 37 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: Bamma wasn't fouling. And I thought I nailed that handicap 38 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: seven forty six first half points. The Cooper five was 39 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: even playing that well, I'm like the big fella crack 40 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: gave that out a big fellow to have over nine 41 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: and a half points. Guy that he had twelve every 42 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: lab he ever caught slammed dunk like over his thunderous 43 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: over his head. They even used k used cash radios 44 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: on the show last night. On the broadcast last night 45 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 2: about a big fellow from Duke, I thought I nailed 46 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 2: it now. I did have Duke covering the spread because look, 47 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: I think I said this maybe in the show a 48 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 2: couple weeks ago. Duke reminds me of Yukong last season. 49 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: Not as good, I don't think as a team, but 50 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: the way they're playing and the way they can shoot 51 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 2: and score, and because they're so long inside they affect 52 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 2: a lot of shots. We saw last night Alabama couldn't 53 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: make layups because they're sold Duke so long inside. Plus guys, 54 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 2: Mama wasn't gonna shoot as well. I saw people being 55 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: like betting Mark Serius go crazy again. 56 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: He had a historic game. 57 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: It's so easy sometimes just to look at sports and say, 58 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: team did this one game that was great. The next game, 59 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 2: especially in college, probably not going to be as good. 60 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: The innverse of that was Texas Tech who couldn't make 61 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: a shot two games ago and came into to play 62 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 2: Florida and couldn't miss it all for the first thirty 63 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: six minutes of that game. And so sometimes college sports 64 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 2: guys can be that simple. Where, especially basketball, where team 65 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: has made twenty five of fifty one threes for a 66 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 2: tournament record one game, the next game are not going 67 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 2: to be as good. So the final result did not 68 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 2: surprise me. In the last game last night, I just 69 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 2: did a little bum crack that I thought. I man, 70 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 2: I was right on the money. They would have been 71 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 2: well over one hundred. I think we all agree if 72 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 2: they would have tried in the second half to score, 73 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 2: and they did and still won by twenty points. 74 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 4: What type of bets did you make, Jeff that you 75 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 4: took plus money on like nineteen. 76 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I took. 77 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 2: I took over ninety and a half when it first posted, 78 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: I didn't closed ninety one and a half that I 79 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: took over ninety three and a half, over ninety six 80 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: and a half, over nine nine. 81 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 3: And a half. 82 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: Got I mean Alabama allows one hundred points to anyone 83 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: who can put the ball in the basket, and Duke 84 00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: scored one hundred points. A bunch of scored a hundred 85 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: pints lest game, and then forty six in the first half, 86 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 2: and then the second half of the game. 87 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 3: They just didn't try to score. I mean, I get 88 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 3: I get the strategy. 89 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 2: Of course they're not looking out for Jess Swrotz's wager here, 90 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: but like they very clearly it was smart. They decided 91 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 2: to slow the game down. And one thing they did 92 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: really good defensively. And I was listening to someone to 93 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 2: talk about this yesterday for who. 94 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 3: To give them? Who give credit to? 95 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 2: But if you can stop Alabama in the first ten 96 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: seconds of their offensive possession, their officially goes way down. 97 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 2: And that's what dude did. They made sure that when 98 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: Alabama was bringing up the court, they did not get 99 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: a three in the first ten seconds. And then Alabama's 100 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: offense is it's just a bunch of screens around the 101 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: perimeter trying to find a three pointer, or someone rolls 102 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 2: the basket or they drive in the basket. Like, it's 103 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: not a complex offense. Once you stopped the initial burst 104 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 2: down the field, the field down the court. And so 105 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: I thought Duke just played a very complete game, even 106 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: though crack my bet didn't get home. 107 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 4: Sure sure, well, as we all know the first two 108 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 4: number one seeds events in the final four. Here, Duke 109 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 4: dominated both sides of the court and they really showed 110 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 4: how they are easily the best defensive team in the country. 111 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 4: We've talked all season about how good Cooper Flag is 112 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 4: and how many ways he can score, but he also 113 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 4: might be the best all around defender in the country. Also, 114 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 4: Duke as a as a team is just so good 115 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 4: defensively because their entire starting five can guard every position 116 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,799 Speaker 4: and that makes it easy to switch back and forth, 117 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 4: you know, off screens. We are really seeing some of 118 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 4: the best defensive college basketball maybe in the history of 119 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 4: the game. So and on the other side, Florida, Yeah, 120 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 4: and the other game, Florida's really walked the thin line 121 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 4: a couple of games to this tournament, down nine, like 122 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 4: Brian said, but for less than three minutes before closing 123 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 4: the game. That's just what a huge run. Just just 124 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 4: to watch that, just being a fan watching that, coming 125 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 4: to watch that come back. Wow, it just seems like 126 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 4: they can turn another level when they won. They want to. 127 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 4: So Walter Clayton Junior, I mean to take over a 128 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 4: game all like, all by himself, he could take over 129 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 4: a game. It seems we're that we're destined for a 130 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 4: Florida Duke Championship. 131 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: I picked in my brackets that Fluorida game was three pointer, 132 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 2: Texas Tech and potentionally fouled missus front end three pointer, 133 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 2: intentional foul missus front end three pointer, nine point lead erased. 134 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 2: Immediately crack your pointing about Duke like Cooper Flag. You 135 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 2: know his ability to create and make plays out having 136 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 2: to score, I think makes him such a great basketball play. 137 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: We know he can score, but the blocks, the assist, 138 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 2: the creating offense, the havoc on defense so super impressive. 139 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: Brian Duke to me, I haven't win the championship. I 140 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 2: think they're just the best team. And what gave me 141 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 2: more evidence of that was winning the AC Tournament out 142 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: Cooper Flag. A lot of teams, man that just crushes them. 143 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: The best out and I can't pronounce it. Kanuffle the 144 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: kid Canipple Caniple like he had thirty something against you 145 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 2: unc of the game before Georgia Tech. Maybe they just 146 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 2: they have these players that are auxiliary to Cooper Flag 147 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 2: and so just a very well put to your team. 148 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 2: They mentioned on the broadcast that Shire built the team 149 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 2: for this time of year. You can tell because of 150 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 2: their ability to You got to be able to handle 151 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 2: the ball up top check. 152 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 3: They can do that. You gotta have size inside check. 153 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 3: They can do that. Affect shot, so super impressor from 154 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 3: Duke last night. 155 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Duke, They're just they're big, you know, they're big tall. 156 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: We'll talk about nil and the impact a little bit 157 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: later in this hour, but last night Alabama, who's in 158 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: a power conference, Alabama looks just size wise, like a 159 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: team that doesn't have nil going for itself, you know 160 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: what I mean. Like the Duke is just big. You 161 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: see them against Alabama and Kanka Nipple he's a wing. 162 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: He's like a sixty seven wing and you see a 163 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: small guard from Bama trying to de him up, and 164 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: it's just like, I'm gonna go straight to the rim. 165 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: There's nothing you can do about it. Walter Clayton Junior 166 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: did that against Texas Tech. Texas Tech has some undersized 167 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: guards and Clayton Junior's just like, I've got a football 168 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: background and you're just not gonna be able to stop me. 169 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: And then he started rating threes. That was really impressive. 170 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: With both winners yesterday where Duke was just impressive the 171 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: whole game. And for Florida, I thought it was Curtains 172 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: for Florida and Jeff you laid it out, crack you two. 173 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: That's a heartbreaking as it gets if you're a Texas 174 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 1: Tech fan, even if you're betting. Texas Tech got a 175 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: nine point lead with under three minutes to go, and 176 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: Florida hits four threes in a row. A big man, 177 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: Thomas Houke nailed a couple of threes along with Clayton Junior. 178 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 1: It's really impressive what Florida did offensively, and it was 179 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: the opposite with Texas Tech missing the front end of 180 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: two one and ones and Florida goes on an eighteen 181 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: to four run to end the game. Think about that. 182 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 1: They scored eighteen points in the final three minutes and 183 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: it wasn't like all goofy foul game stuff. That just 184 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,599 Speaker 1: it's just bombing threes. That really impressive from Florida. And 185 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this real quick that that ten second 186 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: count that was a sliver away from happening. Florida almost 187 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: didn't get the ball past half court. If they didn't 188 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: get bailed out with a file right there. It's at 189 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: least a turnover, maybe a fast break. That was a major, 190 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: major break for Florida because they might not have won 191 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: that game if they didn't get that file. And it 192 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: was a ten second call. 193 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 2: I go back to what I've said on previous shows 194 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: here guys that now when these better teams are playing, 195 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 2: this isn't really applicable because I think that these better 196 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 2: teams we get better basketball. So this is not really 197 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 2: exactly Apple for the last couple of games. And look, guys, 198 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 2: I know people have underdogs. I love this so much more. 199 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 2: Give me ones and twos the best teams of the country. 200 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 2: Give me best teams the country. And I don't want 201 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 2: to see Saint Peter's get blown out. I want to 202 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 2: see the best teams in the country. So what I 203 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 2: want to see. So I'm happy that we're Duke Florida, 204 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: Great Alburn, Michigan State, one of those two's going Sign 205 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 2: me up for that, Houston, Tennessee like great four teams 206 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 2: from big schools that won championships or I don't know 207 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: tenn season one, but sign me up, you. 208 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,079 Speaker 3: Know, sign up for that. 209 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: Is that college basketball is most fun because the last 210 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 2: four minutes are hectic. The first thirty five or thirty 211 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 2: six typically I don't know, give or take that, it 212 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: can be boring, but the last four minutes are just 213 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 2: chaos because their college in college football last season and 214 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: the year before that much older team is because of 215 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: COVID years. Right, this is going to peer out in 216 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: college football. In college by the way, I've made two 217 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 2: win total wagers in college football, we're so back win 218 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 2: totals supposed to guys, Well, cannot wait. Gets smell ball 219 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 2: broad I can smell it. Nonetheless, college basketball, these kids 220 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: are young. They're young, like they're eighteen nineteen years old, 221 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,599 Speaker 2: and the end of games are chaos because they're not 222 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 2: they haven't done it at this level yet. And they're 223 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: not great shot makers yet, you know, Like, you don't 224 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 2: have a lot of guys like Cooper Flagg. It's a 225 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 2: bad example, who just can go off the dribble hit 226 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: a two, you know, because a lot of times in 227 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 2: these in these laking situations, you need to have an 228 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: offense that gets you at two. Well, Alabama's not built 229 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 2: like that. A lot of teams aren't built to get 230 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 2: a two, you know, like, and so in those moments 231 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 2: you need that offense and either make a three, you 232 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: don't make a three. Texas Tech didn't make their threes, 233 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: didn't make their foul shots. Florida did, and that's the 234 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 2: game turns like that, and you gotta give credit to Florida, 235 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 2: but also understand, you know Texas tech like you had opportunity, 236 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 2: a great opportunity to be in the final Florida. Buddy 237 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: texted me the entire game is I got a tech 238 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 2: future in the final four. I'm like, when Florida was 239 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 2: down ten, I said, take Florida. Now take the five 240 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 2: and a half and try to middle yourself. To try 241 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 2: to middle it. 242 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 3: He did so. 243 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 2: Hopefully he made his money back from a tech future. 244 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 2: But there are opportunities there in game wagering a great 245 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: way to go. 246 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 3: I hate I should I brag about women's college basketball again? 247 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 2: Or not?

Today we've got one versus two 410 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: and one versus two, right Like, it's just chalks that 411 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: we could have all four one seeds make it to 412 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: the final four. It's possibility here. And so the question is, 413 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 1: and this has gotten a lot of talk, is Cinderella dead? 414 00:19:59,280 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: Are the upset? 415 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 4: It's over, and. 416 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: It's like, look, man, nil is making upsets harder to 417 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: come by for the mid majors, for the little guy. 418 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 6: But it's not. 419 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: Extinct, Like, let's settle down that it's just gone. We're 420 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: not gonna have what a Cinderella run to the Sweet sixteen, 421 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: never gonna happen again, never gonna have a thirteen make 422 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: it to the sweet sixteen. Come on, what are we 423 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: doing here. It's like, we've got eighteen to twenty two 424 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: year old kids. You just talked about this, Jeff. Some 425 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: of these games at the end, it's just pure chaos. 426 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: These are young kids who don't have a lot of 427 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: experience at times, and that's the deal in college sports. 428 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: It's a three point line. There are young kids, it's 429 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 1: a forty minute game. To think that upsets are dead 430 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: andre Cinderella is over, that is such an overreaction. It's 431 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: gonna be harder to come by. Don't get me wrong. 432 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: Things have changed, but not to the point that it's 433 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: just gone for good. That's such an overreaction. 434 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 2: So a couple things that make these upsets happen in 435 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 2: the first round this year, absolutely right. I mean, they 436 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 2: they didn't cover first halfs I mean, it was a 437 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 2: it was a bloodbath these these lower seats. Is two 438 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 2: things I think have to occur. Right. One, most often 439 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 2: there is a player on the mid major or the underdog, right, 440 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 2: that's just like shooting out of this world right ten threes, right, 441 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 2: the Jack Goldki right, the Oakland thing right, or the 442 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 2: other team or the favorite just plays their worst game ever. 443 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 2: They'll Purdue, right Virginia in those games. Okay, So so 444 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 2: that those can still happen now, But I think what 445 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 2: we're seeing and why it's so difficult is that a 446 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 2: lot of times the teams that make those runs have 447 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 2: those pieces in place, but they also have veteran pieces 448 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: in place that are they contribute to making those those 449 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 2: runs happen, because I think it's hard for a young 450 00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 2: team to be an upset team, right, And and now, Brian, 451 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 2: if that player, let's use Oakland for example, Let's say 452 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 2: that that goalkie had one more year availgibility left, he'd 453 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 2: be at Alabama. 454 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 3: And so that's that. 455 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 2: So the recipe now, I think is like if you 456 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 2: just have an unknown player then no one really knows 457 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 2: and has a breakout season and you get on a run, 458 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 2: but you can't do it that you can't do it 459 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 2: with veteran players. So those guys are are good, are 460 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 2: gone now, Like there's thirteen hundred, fift hundred kids in 461 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: the portal already, they're gone. So yeah, yes, do I 462 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 2: think it's never gonna happen again. No, But I think 463 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 2: the runs, the deep runs are tougher to have because 464 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 2: also too, the better teams have more depth now too, 465 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: so because the NIL is also allowing them to keep players, 466 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 2: have deeper benches, and so you just don't have a 467 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:57,239 Speaker 2: lot of teams that, you know, if one guy is off, 468 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 2: that's it for the whole game. They have multiple guys 469 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 2: and the big ups that we've seen over the years. Again, 470 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 2: that formula is gonna be tough and tough for combys. 471 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 2: I don't I don't think it's plus plus. It's it's 472 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 2: fair to say, like, you know, let's way a couple 473 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 2: more years before we make up our mind done this, 474 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 2: you know, like it's just it's new. It's the first 475 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 2: year in a long time this has happened. But I 476 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 2: think to crack that we can also acknowledge the top 477 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 2: of the sport is just very talented. There's there's there's 478 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 2: a lot of good basketball players on these teams and 479 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 2: they're staying a little bit longer because NIL and they're 480 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 2: just more top heavy. So and I again, I think 481 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 2: we can still enjoy the sport, yeah, and not have 482 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 2: a bunch of upsets. 483 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I mean everyone's talking about this. We 484 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 4: need some kind of regulations out there when it comes 485 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 4: to NIL and transfers. It's it's like the Wild West 486 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 4: out there. It's just it's like free agency every off 487 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 4: season with the majority of players entering the transfer portal 488 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 4: and changing teams. I really hope the NCAA figures it out, but. 489 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 3: I will not. 490 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 2: I'll give you, I'll give you a quick, A quick, 491 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 2: a quick. They will not crack unless unless Congress, who 492 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 2: has their own things to worry about, is going to 493 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: get involved. That there's no legislature, and I would argue 494 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 2: that Congress again has other things to worry about, and 495 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 2: college sports and the freedom of movement is not one 496 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 2: of them. The so called people that love free market 497 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 2: want to limit college athletes. Okay, sure, so it's just 498 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 2: not gonna happen. Like that's missed their opportunity crack when 499 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 2: they just they got sued for years. It was in 500 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 2: the courts that they just had no foresight, had nothing 501 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 2: in their head that they would have thought this is 502 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 2: gonna happen. And that's why we are. We are because 503 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 2: they just put their head in this end. They thought 504 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 2: they'd always get their way. I say, I've said this 505 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 2: for years. Your heart is to lose a Supreme Court 506 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 2: case nine to nothing, nine to nothing, even like I follow, 507 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 2: I kind of follow, like I like law, and I 508 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 2: follow like even like a seven to two, like wow, wow, 509 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 2: they voted like across party lines maybe a little bit there, 510 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 2: nine nothing. 511 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 3: They lost nine nothing the Supreme Court. That's like impossible 512 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 3: to do. 513 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 4: So, guys, I have a question for both to you guys, 514 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 4: it's off topic a little bit for right now. Anyway, 515 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 4: of course involves ports betting. But so this baseball is 516 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 4: such a grind, and I'm debating whether or not to 517 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 4: I know Jeff's answer already. I'm debating whether or not 518 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 4: to send you guys baseball every day. Now here's the 519 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 4: reason why. Like it's the summertime, crack. Let these people 520 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 4: have good time. I don't enjoy crack. Why are these 521 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 4: thoughts in your head? I don't understand why the summertime. 522 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 3: It's like you were going to jail for Yale. So 523 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 3: I think I'm pretty committed to that. 524 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 4: So I was about to click. I had a couple 525 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 4: of first fives today and I'm like, do I in 526 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 4: these to the guys because it's gonna be every day. 527 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 4: I was I grind it out about thirty units after 528 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 4: profit last year, but I'm like, this is gonna be 529 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 4: the whole summer every day. And there's some other guys 530 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 4: on the on the text thread, and I'm like, these 531 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 4: guys must be like, crack, we got family. I feel like. 532 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 3: The time, the summertime, the summertime is going to be reserved, 533 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 3: by the way for betting on K and Clark. We've 534 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 3: already discussed this. 535 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 4: I was really I swear I'm not joking. I'm not 536 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 4: just saying that they get a buzz out. I was 537 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 4: debating whether to send. I said, you know, do I 538 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 4: start sending these guys baseball every day? I may, you know, 539 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 4: but I'm telling you, the last couple of years has 540 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 4: been really good. 541 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: Bet too much, cracked, worry, way too much like to 542 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: sentiment to text these guys. No it's not too long, No, 543 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: it's not too right. Just fire away, fire away. 544 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 4: We're going to have a couple for the show. I'll 545 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 4: give him out here. 546 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: But yeah, you're good, very nice. I'll just stay real 547 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: fast with the the nil thing and upsets and all 548 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: that stuff. Like this year we don't have a team. 549 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: We have no teams that are seated four or lower 550 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: make it to the Elite eight. But that's happened before. 551 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: It happened in two thousand and seven. It happened in 552 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 1: two thousand and nine. If this is just unprecedented this year, 553 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: we haven't had anything close to this much chalk. I 554 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: get it, You're like, whoa nil? This has happened before twice, 555 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So this idea that upsets 556 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: are dead no more. Cinderella think about this tournament too, 557 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: even though it's been chalk city Colorado State, like it 558 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: took a buzzer beater to get Colorado State. Maryland had 559 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 1: to hit a game winner at the buzzer to move on, 560 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: otherwise we'd have a twelve seed. In the sweet sixteen, 561 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: Alabama they struggled against Robert Morris, remember that two fifteen matchup. 562 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: They had to bring in Grant Nelson, who is gimpy 563 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 1: with a knee injury. They're like, man, this game's in doubt. 564 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: That's a two point fifteen against for Robert Morris. So 565 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: this idea that Upsets are dead, it's just it's too 566 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: much of a panic thing. It's too much of an overreaction. 567 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: They're gonna be tougher to come by, but they're not 568 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 1: dead and gone. Someone else who is not dead and 569 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 1: gone either. That would be Isaac Lowencron. Thankfully, he is 570 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: a live and kicking and he's got his thumb on 571 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: the pulse of everything in the sports world. He's got 572 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,199 Speaker 1: the latest for us right here. 573 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 4: What's going on? 574 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 7: I low mornin Fellas and the pulse beats with the 575 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 7: rhythm of the college basketball coaching carousel, because multiple outlets 576 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 7: reported this morning that Maryland head coach Kevin Willard is 577 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 7: indeed leaving to become the new head coach at Villanova. 578 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 7: For context, here's what Willard had to say about the 579 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 7: Villanova job after Thursday's Sweet Sixteen laws to Florida. 580 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 4: I don't know what I'm doing. I'll just be honest 581 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 4: with you. I haven't talked to my agent. 582 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 3: I even talked to. 583 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 8: My wife. I made a promise to this team that 584 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 8: I was gonna just focus on this team, and that's 585 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 8: all I've done. So I haven't talked to anybody. I'm 586 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,479 Speaker 8: an agent. I'm sure he's talking to people because that's 587 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 8: what agents like to do. 588 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 3: But you know, I don't. 589 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 4: I don't know. 590 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 7: Ironically, that's the same answer I give my wife when 591 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 7: she asked if I'm ever gonna pick my dirty socks 592 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 7: up off the floor. 593 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 4: I don't know what I'm doing.

They just they fired the guy with nine 631 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: games left in the regular season. Where the Grizzlies have 632 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: eight games now after losing to the Lakers, but they 633 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: fired him with nine games left in the regular season. 634 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: I just don't get it. They were tied with the Lakers, 635 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: they had the same record, They're like fourth place in 636 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: the West. The West is loaded. And if this goes 637 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: beyond basketball, okay, maybe there's something we don't know about. 638 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: But if this is strictly a basketball move, I don't 639 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: get this at all. For the Grizzlies, the timing could 640 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: not be stranger. 641 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I it has to be something internal, right, Brian. 642 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 2: Maybe they're playing the Lakers in the postseason and just 643 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 2: wanted to you know, they're worried about that. I'd be 644 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 2: worried about playing the Lakers too. Right now, I'm gonna 645 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 2: have to walk back some of my Lakers. 646 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 3: Comments at some point. 647 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see, we'll see what happens when the 648 00:31:58,720 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 2: posts he rolls around. 649 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean something has to be right. 650 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 2: There's to be something behind the scenes that Well, we're 651 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 2: going to get that lengthy athletic article in a couple 652 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 2: of weeks, right, like what happened at Memphis, and it's 653 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: gonna be some some wild stuff in there. I mean, 654 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 2: I wonder if him and John just didn't get along. 655 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 2: I mean, that's it could be that simple. The NBA 656 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 2: obviously very player driven, right, if coach doesn't get along 657 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 2: with the player and he comes toxic, then typically the 658 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 2: players out, I mean the coaches out. In the NFL 659 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,719 Speaker 2: the players out. It's a big difference in those sports. 660 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 2: So we'll find something. Many they did end up losing. 661 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:33,959 Speaker 2: Lakers beat him last night, right was it last night? 662 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 4: Yeah? 663 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, beat him last night. So Lakers back on track, baby, 664 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 2: after losing the Bulls game. I mean, we got to 665 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 2: that was wild. Wow, we got to be better Lebron. 666 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 2: You can't you can't throw it, you know, I guess 667 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 2: you know he's he have a very public beef right now. 668 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 2: It's affecting his play. But that was a that was 669 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 2: a wild game. Jeez, he's cracked The Lakers man but 670 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 2: I'm surprised. I think everyone's surprised. There's gotta be more 671 00:32:58,200 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 2: of the story, right, It's not It's not as simple 672 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 2: as we fire up for performance, right, Yeah, something behind 673 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: the scenes. 674 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, this is definitely, like you said, surprise. 675 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 4: It's actually a surprising move by the organization this time 676 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 4: of the year. I mean, eight and eleven since the 677 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 4: All Star break, but they're still forty four and twenty nine, 678 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 4: so you're looking at a four or five seed in 679 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 4: the West. You know, rumors are that coach Jenkins had 680 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 4: lost the locker room, and you know, it just goes 681 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 4: to show you that in today's NBA, the players have 682 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 4: all the control, not the coaches, maybe not even upper management, 683 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 4: GM's owners. I mean, I don't know, man, it's all 684 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 4: around it. 685 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: It kind of bothers me, but yeah, hey man, the 686 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: player power is definitely real. And that's the thing. Even 687 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 1: if he has lost the locker room, are they better 688 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: did they improve by firing the guy? It's just baffling 689 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: to me. John Moran has missed thirty games this year, 690 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: that's the other thing. Their star player has missed a 691 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: ton of games. So to put this essentially all on 692 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 1: Taylor Jenkins is I'm not acting like the guy walks 693 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: on water. I just don't know how you're better with 694 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: nine games remaining in the regular season and the playoffs 695 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: right around the corner to have an interim guy like 696 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: it was that bad, just basketball wise. I just don't 697 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 1: see how you improved. But hey man, we move on. 698 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: We've got Bill Krackenberger, professional sports handicapper.

This line is one 727 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 4: ninety one, ninety two eighty six everywhere that I'm looking 728 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 4: at one eighty five. Bet MGM minus one seventy five. 729 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 4: These first five inning bets, I'll lay a little bit more. 730 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 4: I hate laying so much wood during a regular season. 731 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 4: Really very rare on all the way that kind of 732 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 4: would on a game ever, But bet MGM minus one 733 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 4: seventy five first five innings Texas. Let's go with that. 734 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 3: Okay, Right, I. 735 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 2: Got a couple of baseball games to watch today, all right, 736 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,280 Speaker 2: let's go with college basketball here. I'm gonna take Auburn 737 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 2: to cover the first half minus two and a half. 738 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 2: I'm trying to find cracks advice and buy down to 739 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 2: two year. 740 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 3: You got only do that with with with halves. So 741 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 3: I like Auburn. 742 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,399 Speaker 2: The first half minus do a half for couples is one. 743 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 2: Michigan State starts slow over game. We know this about them, right, 744 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 2: They were only up five to Bryant the first half. 745 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 2: They were losing by two halftime against New Mexico, losing 746 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 2: by two to Old Miss at halftime. Alburn finished the 747 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 2: Michigan game very strong with they which was shocking right 748 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,439 Speaker 2: that that game was not was not cut in cover range. 749 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 2: For a long time, they haven't played great basketball. I 750 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 2: feel like that's gonna propel them to start fastenings in 751 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 2: Michigan States. So give me Auburn minus two and out 752 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 2: for the first half. I think they start fastest Michiganity 753 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 2: Misison State we've seen all year long. Right, that second 754 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 2: half is Michigan State's time. I mean, this game is 755 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 2: very close to the end, but I think all we're 756 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 2: gonna start fast. Auburn minus two and. 757 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 3: A half here in the first half. 758 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I'm gonna go with the prop here, 759 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: give me Juwan Roberts from Houston. I'm gonna take over 760 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:35,240 Speaker 1: six and a half rebounds. You just look at Houston. 761 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 1: They've got an advantage on the glass here. Tennessee is 762 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: really bad at defensive rebounding. And you see Houston, they 763 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: just crashed the glass. You saw them against per new 764 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: and they're just all these tip shots, these tipp ins. 765 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: So I think Juwan Roberts has a very good shot 766 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: to get over six and a half rebounds. 767 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 3: So I like that. 768 00:37:56,400 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: I'll add that to the parlay platter open the last week. 769 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: I know Condon, he barely got there. It was the 770 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: same thing. It was over six and a half rebounds, 771 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: and he got one at the very very end, and 772 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 1: we won our parlay by a whisker. But hey, better 773 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 1: be lucky than good. But I think the odds in 774 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:18,280 Speaker 1: our favor here with Juwan Roberts in this matchup against Tennessee, 775 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: Like you can't say they're one of the worst defensive 776 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 1: rebounding teams in the country. And you know, I'm going 777 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: with rebounding here for Houston. 778 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 2: One twenty four and a half total. 779 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: It's so low man, And is it ticked up to 780 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: tick up? 781 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 2: Does that feel like they're begging you to take the 782 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 2: over under? 783 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 3: I don't. I don't know the under the over has 784 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 3: I'm looking at. 785 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 2: It's just in bet sports ninety percent of wagers in 786 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 2: ninety one a percent of the money. 787 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,919 Speaker 1: So, jeez, man, like they're begging you to take the over. 788 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 2: How can you take that under a one twenty four 789 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 2: and a half and want to root for that during 790 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: this game? Do you want to see a game and 791 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:57,799 Speaker 2: sixty to fifty. 792 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: No, but it could. This could be sixty one fifty 793 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: seven all day. You know when in shock they're going 794 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,439 Speaker 1: to be walking the ball up. It's the final six 795 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 1: minutes could be an absolute just beyond rock fight. 796 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 4: You know. 797 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, listen, I get it.

So how much do you put that into 834 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: your handicap. 835 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would think at this time of the year, though, 836 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 4: when you have fans traveling this is the final you know, 837 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 4: this is the you know, the big games of the year, 838 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 4: and you know these fans follow the teams and stuff, 839 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 4: you'd be surprised to know how many of the I 840 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 4: don't want to say opponents, so like I don't want 841 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 4: to see enemies, but you know, in the in the stands. 842 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:36,919 Speaker 4: But yeah, I think it is sure, it could matter 843 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 4: for a little bit, but I think that's baked into 844 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 4: the lines just now. I'm not saying it's baked in 845 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,800 Speaker 4: the line big, but maybe even for a fraction of 846 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 4: a point. Maybe. You know, I have a friend of 847 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 4: mine that actually will say a game, let's say he 848 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 4: sees ten threes on his and I'm talking about the 849 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 4: line the spread being minus three. Let's say it's the 850 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 4: spread's minus three. He sees minus three on ten different 851 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 4: sports books and sees minus three and a half at 852 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 4: the other ten he'll see the Lions minus three point 853 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 4: twenty five, which means you can go either way. Well, 854 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 4: I think that maybe fraction of you will get some more. 855 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 4: Maybe you'll get thirteen minus threes, and you know you'll 856 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,800 Speaker 4: get you know, seven three and a half, and you 857 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 4: know that that would be the difference. But still for 858 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,360 Speaker 4: anyone that has lots of options to play at, I 859 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 4: think it doesn't matter there. And I'll just tell you 860 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,919 Speaker 4: this game is kind of a throwback to as neither 861 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 4: team relies on the three point shot too much. Michigan 862 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 4: State does most of its work in the paint and 863 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 4: on the free throw line, as they rank in the 864 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 4: top twenty and free throw and you know the free 865 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,879 Speaker 4: throw attempts per game, free throw rate, free throws made 866 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 4: per game, and free throw percentages. Auburn also tends to 867 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 4: play very aggressive on defense. They foul a lot, as 868 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 4: they were three hundred and I was just reading this 869 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 4: on three hundred and tenth and free throws allowed, So 870 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 4: we might have a lot of whistles in this game. 871 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 4: I think a lot of This game really depends on 872 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 4: how it's called, too. If the refs are calling the 873 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 4: game real tight, then advantage Michigan State. If the refs 874 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 4: are letting them play a little bit, maybe advantage Auburn. 875 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 4: So it's going to be interesting. It's going to be interesting. 876 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 4: It'll be fun to watch. I enjoy actually a day 877 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 4: like today when I can go back and forth, and 878 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 4: you know, I don't have like a lot of guys 879 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 4: have like five screens in their office or anything. I 880 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 4: really don't do too much of that in my main 881 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 4: living room. I do, but I mostly watch games in 882 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 4: my office and I'll have it on in the background. 883 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 4: And it's a fun time of the year, especially as 884 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 4: we get down to this final four and the big game. 885 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 2: I wonder how much so Allburn's sort of been waiting 886 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 2: for the last four minutes that Michigan game to happen 887 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 2: for months from million month now, Brian, where everything sort 888 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 2: of played like I did the first three months of 889 00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,919 Speaker 2: the season, And I do wonder how much that plays 890 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 2: a role in today's game, right where when they got hot, 891 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 2: they played good defense, they made their shots. All things 892 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 2: we saw from Alburn for months and months and months 893 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 2: that seemed to go away, and I wonder how much 894 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 2: that matters for today, because I think, yeah, the cracks 895 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 2: right about the rock fight. It probably is a rock fight. 896 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 2: I think Alburt's more equipped to play a rock fight 897 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 2: than Michigan State is. And they shoot better from three, 898 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 2: which is hugely important. I guys, Michigan State has a 899 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 2: good three point defense, don't I don't know what that means. 900 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:35,799 Speaker 2: Like when I watched Duke last night. We we talked 901 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 2: about earlier, Duke was up at the three point line 902 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 2: in the face of Alabama immediately. I don't see Michigan 903 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 2: State doing anything different defensive than anyone else does. I 904 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 2: think it's just because they play a physical brand of 905 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 2: basketball that by the time the a team attempts a 906 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 2: three pointer or they're just tired in the possession. Again, 907 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 2: I watched May teams just brick open threes all the 908 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 2: time against Michigan State, So I don't know what that 909 00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 2: means to me. 910 00:44:58,280 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 3: This game come down the second half. 911 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 4: We know that. 912 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:04,879 Speaker 3: Michigan State is a great second half team. 913 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:09,040 Speaker 2: They clamp down defensively, they pull away in the second 914 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 2: half of games. Can can basically Auburn withstand that. Brian 915 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 2: can they withstand any sort of attempt for you know, 916 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,839 Speaker 2: for Michigan State to pull away in the second half 917 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:19,760 Speaker 2: of this game, I'm curious. 918 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you look at Auburn, you start with their talent. 919 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: They're more talented. They've got more offensive talent. Like you said, yes, 920 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,640 Speaker 1: their front court is better with Jeni Broome and company. 921 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: So really, for Michigan State to win this game, they've 922 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: got to play great defense. That's their brand. But their guards, 923 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 1: I think their guards have to play really, really well 924 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 1: because I just don't see Michigan State's front court getting 925 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,800 Speaker 1: the better of Auburn's front court. So you're gonna have 926 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 1: to shoot well. And do you trust Michigan State I 927 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:51,720 Speaker 1: have to shoot it better than Auburn. 928 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 3: I don't either, especially after you do. 929 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 2: I think it bright. How much do you think you 930 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 2: watched you watch ball, you know like I watch ball. 931 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 2: How much do you it matters that Auburn played that 932 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 2: last four minutes? Well, I think it matters a lot 933 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 2: in this game. I think they're gonna have so much 934 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 2: confidence after what looked like they were going to lose 935 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 2: to Michigan. Guys, they don't only won, they covered nine 936 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:13,879 Speaker 2: and a half, right, eight and a half and there 937 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 2: was no I'm sure we could pull up the chart. 938 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,800 Speaker 2: I mean, I would imagine that the cover percentage for 939 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 2: them with four minutes left was was zero. 940 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 3: What they were going to cover that game? 941 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 2: And to end a game like that on that run, 942 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 2: I would imagine, Yeah, I mean, look at with with 943 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,319 Speaker 2: twelve minutes left, Michigans should have had ninety five percent 944 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 2: cover percentage. With eight minutes left it was seventy eight percent, 945 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 2: and they just went all the way to zero, very 946 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 2: very fast. 947 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 3: So that game just flipped so quickly, man, so quickly. 948 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, hey, guys, we also have an interesting coaching matchup 949 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 4: with is Over's Paul Pearl. You know, ive seen is 950 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,800 Speaker 4: O getting really emotional after last game, which is normal, 951 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 4: you know for him. I don't want to start any 952 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 4: rumors or you know, get the Michigan State fans upset, 953 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 4: but I would not be surprised if his stepped down 954 00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 4: after the season. Actually it's almost seventy one. He's actually 955 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 4: admitted that he isn't happy with the state of the 956 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 4: nil and the transfer portal. I don't think he's one 957 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 4: to have a farewell tour like coach k He's more 958 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 4: likely to maybe go to the Nick Saban there Tony 959 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 4: Bennett route and just drop out of the news and 960 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 4: me gone. You know, Izzo has been to the final eight, 961 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 4: I'm sorry, to eight final fours. I'm sorry. And he 962 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 4: actually has won a championship back in like I think 963 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 4: it was like two thousand. It was a long time. 964 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:41,799 Speaker 4: Can he win another one this year? 965 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 3: Though? 966 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 4: Can you know that would be the icing on the 967 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:44,879 Speaker 4: cake for him to step down? 968 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 3: I don't think so. I don't think so. 969 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 2: And I think that to your point krap about that, 970 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 2: I don't think his team will be as good next season, 971 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 2: and I think that it's possible. I mean, look, we're 972 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,439 Speaker 2: seeing the older coaches sort of peter out right because 973 00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 2: that just they're tired of the way the sport is 974 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 2: is running. It could certainly be that case for Zoe. 975 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 2: I also think that he built this team, and he 976 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 2: said it sort of for this right, like he's built 977 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 2: he's built his team for this season. And I think 978 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,879 Speaker 2: that it's just the whole bit of that is making him, 979 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:17,600 Speaker 2: you know, pretty pretty emotional. 980 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 1: You know. What's funny too, is I was thinking about 981 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: this with Nil these coaches at lower schools, you know, 982 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 1: these mid majors, and maybe it's a much smaller school. 983 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 1: It must drive them even crazier to hear a coach 984 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:38,840 Speaker 1: like tom Izzo is our conference who gets like the 985 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,720 Speaker 1: benefit of nil, who gets the benefit of the transfer 986 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:45,239 Speaker 1: portal way more than they do. Sure, and they're having 987 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: to hear those coaches complain about it. Like, I get 988 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 1: that there are complaints to be made. I get it 989 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:54,280 Speaker 1: from tom Izzo's standpoint and from the big fish's standpoint. 990 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 1: But for the little guys where it's like, okay, cool, 991 00:48:57,560 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 1: So you're complaining while you get transfers, while you have 992 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 1: nil money. We have neither, and you're taking our guys 993 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: and you're complaining about it. It must drive the coaches 994 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,760 Speaker 1: at lower schools way crazier than these power coaches. 995 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 4: I agree. 996 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I probably dress them in saying yeah, I 997 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 3: imagine that they're not fans of this. 998 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 1: No, that's rich where you lose your guy like Yale. 999 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 1: Yale loses Danny Wolf and then we got to hear 1000 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 1: a big ten coach whining about nil. Really, is that 1001 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 1: what we're doing right now? Like, oh, they would drive 1002 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 1: me crazy if I was a coach at a mid major. 1003 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,799 Speaker 4: And then think of it, like that. Jesus, really those 1004 00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 4: teams sposed speak, Oh God. 1005 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 2: But think about that, like those guys they lose those 1006 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 2: guys and then do you hear is who gets the benefit. 1007 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,560 Speaker 4: Of that, right right? 1008 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:54,919 Speaker 1: And so talks about it a lot. But man, yeah 1009 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: it's rich right there. But yeah, like you said, a 1010 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 1: lot of final fours, right, trying to get his ninth one, 1011 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 1: and this would be an impressive one. I agree with you, Jeff. 1012 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 1: By the way, where Auburn ending that game against Michigan, 1013 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:09,720 Speaker 1: because they had lost three of four down the stretch, 1014 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 1: they weren't like great against Creighton. They distanced themselves at 1015 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 1: the end of that game. But to beat Michigan the 1016 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,799 Speaker 1: way they did heading into this game against Michigan State, yeah, 1017 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 1: I think it matters. They always talk about this with shooters, 1018 00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,200 Speaker 1: you know, get to the free throw line, see the ball, 1019 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: go in the hoop, get a rhythm, get some confidence. 1020 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 1: It's a real thing in basketball. So closing out the 1021 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 1: way they did against Michigan, I think that's absolutely a 1022 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: factor today for Auburn. 1023 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:37,399 Speaker 3: I think so as well. 1024 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 2: And I think there's a way again, I think you 1025 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 2: could wager alburn first half and then maybe if the 1026 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 2: game gets a little bit out of hand early. Go 1027 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,319 Speaker 2: back to Michigan State. At some point you can try 1028 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 2: to middle it. You're kind of win both wagers here, 1029 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,400 Speaker 2: So play of options to do in the same I 1030 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 2: don't have many player props in this game. I know 1031 00:50:56,080 --> 00:51:00,279 Speaker 2: it could be you know, as Krack mentioned over with 1032 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,359 Speaker 2: a lot of fouls could be possibility in this game 1033 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,400 Speaker 2: the second half over something like that because cracks right Cintury, 1034 00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 2: I was reading article another article one of the who 1035 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:11,440 Speaker 2: covers college bathball. It was fan Fachilla tweeted out that 1036 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 2: the there's too much physicality in the game right now 1037 00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 2: that he thinks that they're gonna pair that back next 1038 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,719 Speaker 2: he's still a lot more offense because they're just you know, 1039 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 2: it's not gonna happen now, so it obviously plays. You 1040 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 2: know this is this is gonna be a very physical game. 1041 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 2: I don't know what else to put it. There's gonna 1042 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:30,799 Speaker 2: be a lot of bumping into the paint, a lot 1043 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 2: of big fellas moving, trying to move guys around, physical 1044 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:38,120 Speaker 2: guard play, rebounding, boxing out so it could get out. 1045 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:41,319 Speaker 2: It could get foul happy fast and then obviously would 1046 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:42,839 Speaker 2: would help an over get there. 1047 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know you said about props. Uh eight 1048 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:51,920 Speaker 4: and one by the way, so far since the tournaments started. Yes, 1049 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 4: and uh, yeah, you're right, there's not I mean I 1050 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:56,800 Speaker 4: have like one I'm gonna give out when we do 1051 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,760 Speaker 4: prop it up. But there's not a lot of props. 1052 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 4: You're right. Uh, you're down to two games here today, 1053 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 4: so you don't want to force anything. But I do 1054 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,319 Speaker 4: have one. Hopefully continue this eight and one streak since 1055 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,719 Speaker 4: the tournament started. See what happens here? 1056 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,359 Speaker 1: Get you what were something that you hit? Crack off 1057 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:14,879 Speaker 1: the top of your head? Can you remember a few 1058 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 1: of them? 1059 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 4: I have no idea. I'm firing on everything I read. 1060 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,800 Speaker 2: You had Clayton and the big fella from Duke yesterday 1061 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 2: over I know that. So that was those, both of 1062 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:29,839 Speaker 2: those hits. So that's ah, it's good. 1063 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,720 Speaker 4: You don't know, it's kind of young blood. Young blood. 1064 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:35,799 Speaker 3: Oh the internet says you don't win it all crack. 1065 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:36,439 Speaker 3: It's kind of weird. 1066 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:41,399 Speaker 4: You know. It's funny because Jeff was saying, Uh, Jeff 1067 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 4: was actually saying something to me last week. He caught 1068 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,839 Speaker 4: something and he's like, God, I see something in there. 1069 00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 4: Because usually I don't go back at anybody it's just 1070 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,840 Speaker 4: not what I do. So, but I went back at 1071 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,800 Speaker 4: someone for something and I just, you know, just not 1072 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 4: that I went back at him.

Christian Cipollini joins us here bet MGM 1243 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:14,880 Speaker 1: Trading Manager, Good morning to you, Christian. Okay, so chalk 1244 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,560 Speaker 1: City man. We've got two one seeds in the final 1245 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 1: four already, we might have two more one seeds in 1246 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:24,360 Speaker 1: the final four. How has all this chalk been for you? 1247 01:01:24,560 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 4: Guys? 1248 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:27,320 Speaker 1: Are has this been a good tournament or a bad 1249 01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:29,560 Speaker 1: tournament thus far for you at BETMGM. 1250 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:35,440 Speaker 5: Hey, Yeah, I guess if I have to be between 1251 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,400 Speaker 5: good and bad, it's going to be leaning towards that. 1252 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 5: Obviously chalk a lot of favorites obviously not ideal. I 1253 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:44,000 Speaker 5: think I looked upon on this weekend or best day 1254 01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 5: this weekend, we won about one and a half or 1255 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 5: two percent on college basketball. 1256 01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 2: So, as we've talked about. 1257 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,960 Speaker 5: Many times on this program, favorites winning in which they've 1258 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 5: done often this tournament, winning by a lot is typically 1259 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 5: not good for the book. So yeah, we're trying to 1260 01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 5: avoid an all one seed ornament or fut off four. 1261 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 6: At this point. 1262 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:04,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, how much my ability do you have in the 1263 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 2: futures market with all these with all these one seeds? 1264 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,080 Speaker 2: I would imagine that you know, you know, obviously you 1265 01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:10,760 Speaker 2: have some long shot wagers for some of the lower seeds, 1266 01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:13,560 Speaker 2: but I imagine you know, the bulk of the future's 1267 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:16,000 Speaker 2: issues you guys would have would be the one seeds win. 1268 01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:17,919 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1269 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:21,280 Speaker 5: So I mean, right now we are we have the 1270 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,800 Speaker 5: potential for our nightmare scenario, which would be a Duke 1271 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:28,120 Speaker 5: Florida final. Duke is far and away our worst outcome. 1272 01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,040 Speaker 5: I think I've talked to the program, We've talked. We've 1273 01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 5: taken a couple of big bets on Duke. We even 1274 01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 5: took another one hundred k on them last night, so 1275 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 5: that just keeps filing along with the public Duke being 1276 01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:40,560 Speaker 5: such a big team, plenty of public money that's coming 1277 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,040 Speaker 5: as well. So they're far and away our most bet 1278 01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:45,400 Speaker 5: on team. Florida is another one that we. 1279 01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:46,840 Speaker 6: Want to avoid. 1280 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 5: The other two one seats Auburn Houston though, are actually 1281 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:53,400 Speaker 5: pretty okay from features perspective, so we do have that 1282 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 5: silver lining going for us at this point. But they 1283 01:02:55,760 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 5: have taken money throughout this tournament. So Tennessee another okay 1284 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 5: one for us that we'd like Tennessee, but Michigan State 1285 01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:04,200 Speaker 5: we do have a good amount a liability. 1286 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,200 Speaker 4: Hey Christian, what did the person bet last night the 1287 01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,600 Speaker 4: one hundred thousand on Duke to? What were the odds? 1288 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 4: What do you do? 1289 01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:14,480 Speaker 5: I think got it even money for right now? 1290 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 4: So okay, I want to know about today's two games, 1291 01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:22,920 Speaker 4: either one of them. Any big money on the games 1292 01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 4: at any right now, I know people bet last minute 1293 01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 4: and they you know, our first game herero is, let's 1294 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:31,440 Speaker 4: start to another four hours. So any anything real standout 1295 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:35,160 Speaker 4: is in the Houston, Tennessee or Auburn Michigan state right now, 1296 01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 4: or nothing really crazy or you're probably gonna have some 1297 01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:39,400 Speaker 4: small money on the dog. 1298 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,360 Speaker 5: So the Tennessee Houston one's the interesting one at this 1299 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 5: point because we did actually we had ended up taking 1300 01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:50,520 Speaker 5: about a fifty k bet on Tennessee this morning so far, 1301 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:54,880 Speaker 5: along with outsiding a presence in that state, we have 1302 01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:57,600 Speaker 5: taken a little bit more Houston or sorry Tennessee money 1303 01:03:57,640 --> 01:03:59,640 Speaker 5: at this point in that game. So this might be 1304 01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 5: where of the rare ones where we might end up 1305 01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 5: burning for the favorite in Houston, but it is true 1306 01:04:05,200 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 5: right now in Auburn Michigan state, though as of right 1307 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 5: now we want Michigan state. I kind of doubt that 1308 01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:15,840 Speaker 5: will change, but so it might be a little bit 1309 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:17,520 Speaker 5: of a both, which is a little rare. 1310 01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 1: What would help you out the most today, Christian from 1311 01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 1: a future standpoint, right if it's less about the day 1312 01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 1: and more about the futures bets out there, what would 1313 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:29,680 Speaker 1: help you guys out the results that you would you'd 1314 01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:31,360 Speaker 1: be like, all right, good, at least we got that 1315 01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:32,520 Speaker 1: for the futures bets. 1316 01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, since we have no choice but to 1317 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 5: have Duke in Floridas to the bottom four, Michigan State 1318 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:41,320 Speaker 5: would be the next one that we want to get 1319 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:47,040 Speaker 5: beat here. Then after that, you know, from Tennessee or Houston. 1320 01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 5: I guess we probably don't have too much of a 1321 01:04:49,920 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 5: lean that whoever can be would be the one is 1322 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:53,920 Speaker 5: the ones who were rooting for. 1323 01:04:55,920 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 2: The total in Florida, ascuse me? In intended See and Houston? 1324 01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 3: Is is so low? Are you begging people to bet 1325 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:06,160 Speaker 3: the over? Here? 1326 01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 2: Is there's so much money under because it's total? I 1327 01:05:08,120 --> 01:05:10,680 Speaker 2: mean I think I thought ninety percent of people are 1328 01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:11,440 Speaker 2: on the over right now? 1329 01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1330 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 6: Right? 1331 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,880 Speaker 5: I mean those type of things happen, especially from like 1332 01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 5: the public's perspective when you see the number just so low, 1333 01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 5: especially you know, people that haven't been tuning in this 1334 01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 5: whole college basketball season and leading up here, just seeing 1335 01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 5: a total blow does end up getting us a ton 1336 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 5: of over bets. At this point, looking at it, we're 1337 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 5: about seventy five eighty percent of our bets have come 1338 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:36,200 Speaker 5: on the over, you know, which is typical. We had 1339 01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 5: ten to take more over it, but yeah, this is 1340 01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 5: one that will definitely want. 1341 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 2: To go under. 1342 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:44,640 Speaker 4: You know, I's switching here to baseball. I've got our 1343 01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:48,320 Speaker 4: email from John ewing on on on Monday, the highest 1344 01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 4: ticket percentage is highest handles. The Dodgers had thirty seven 1345 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:54,120 Speaker 4: point one percent. 1346 01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:55,000 Speaker 3: Oh yeah. 1347 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:58,400 Speaker 4: The next closest is the Mets at nine percent, Yanks 1348 01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:01,400 Speaker 4: seven and a half percent. So I'm guessing you guys 1349 01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 4: have some maybe even some liability on overseason wins. Uh Dodgers' futures. 1350 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 4: It opened up four to one, looks like that plus 1351 01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:12,840 Speaker 4: two forty closed or that's what it was on Monday. 1352 01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 4: Fill us in on that is that Dodgers are a 1353 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:17,080 Speaker 4: big liability for you guys. 1354 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 5: So the only thing that helps from that perspective is 1355 01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:23,800 Speaker 5: that they are such a short favorite really early on 1356 01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 5: in the season, so our liability isn't crazy. But yeah, 1357 01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:31,760 Speaker 5: to your point, an insane amount of insane are on 1358 01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:34,960 Speaker 5: the Dodgers, and really hard to fathom the amount of 1359 01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 5: Dodgers action that we've gotten, and that's only going to 1360 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 5: continue to happen. I mean, they're five to zero to 1361 01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 5: start this season. You know, barring anything crazy that's going 1362 01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:44,720 Speaker 5: to happen. That money is just going to kind of 1363 01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 5: keep flowing in. 1364 01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 6: So the lower price point helps. 1365 01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:51,160 Speaker 5: Us a tiny bit, but I can't imagine we'll be 1366 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 5: scrooting for them this season. 1367 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:55,960 Speaker 4: And Christian added a thirty seven point one percent Can 1368 01:06:56,040 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 4: you tell us what percentage Jeff Schwartz's of that thirty up? 1369 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:01,240 Speaker 4: For sure? 1370 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:05,920 Speaker 2: I hate the Dodgers, as we know, but I did. 1371 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:08,080 Speaker 2: I do have a show Halo Timey win the MVP 1372 01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:12,040 Speaker 2: wager with bet MGM because he won the MVP last 1373 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:13,880 Speaker 2: year and now he's going to pitch this season. Like, 1374 01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:16,320 Speaker 2: I don't know how he doesn't win the MVP. I 1375 01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:18,280 Speaker 2: just I don't under I just don't get it. So, 1376 01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 2: uh you, I have that wager a bet MGM. I 1377 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:23,880 Speaker 2: missed the Dodgers win total. Book's crazy is they won 1378 01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:25,960 Speaker 2: the first two games and it didn't move it all. 1379 01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:26,960 Speaker 2: I mean Dodgers run line. 1380 01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:27,320 Speaker 3: Christian. 1381 01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:30,120 Speaker 2: I feel like every night for you guys, there's gonna 1382 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:31,760 Speaker 2: be something you're rooting against, because I mean, if you 1383 01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:34,040 Speaker 2: bet Dodgors run line this season, the price will be 1384 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 2: fixed sometimes, but I feel like you'll be more often 1385 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:37,480 Speaker 2: than not on the winning. 1386 01:07:37,320 --> 01:07:37,640 Speaker 3: Side of that. 1387 01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:42,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, And quickly to your point about the pitching and 1388 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 5: hitting for his MVP. Yeah, we've taken a majority of 1389 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:49,240 Speaker 5: our n L MVP bets are on show. Hey, similar thing. 1390 01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:52,560 Speaker 5: I think we'll continue, especially if he's pitching. Well, it 1391 01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:55,080 Speaker 5: makes it really hard for anyone else to win that award. 1392 01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:57,640 Speaker 5: Winning he can as that side thing of oh he's 1393 01:07:57,680 --> 01:08:00,800 Speaker 5: awesome pitching and doing these crazy battings ever Heady does. 1394 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:04,160 Speaker 5: But yeah, also to that point, i'd imagine every single 1395 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:05,840 Speaker 5: game we are going to be rooting for whoever the 1396 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:07,080 Speaker 5: Dodgers are playing, for sure. 1397 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:11,200 Speaker 1: Yes, all right, Christian.

Oh, unless he's out 1518 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,920 Speaker 1: for some unknown reason, I'll go with Gary Trent Junior. 1519 01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:53,439 Speaker 1: I've also looked at this too, like har J Barrett, 1520 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm not necessarily gonna play him for this, but with 1521 01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,920 Speaker 1: the Toronto Raptors, a couple of guys out for the 1522 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:04,360 Speaker 1: raptors today where Emmanuel Quickly is out, Grady Dick is out. 1523 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:07,120 Speaker 1: Those guys shoot a lot of threes.

They're playing the sixers, you know, like maybe 1525 01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:13,519 Speaker 1: maybe RJ Barrett, let's a few fly. I'd look more 1526 01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:17,040 Speaker 1: of a player prop than a Sunday splash.

I 1565 01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:14,160 Speaker 4: mean you have to return to the meet a little bit. 1566 01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:17,760 Speaker 4: But however, I still have one for you, guys. 1567 01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:19,360 Speaker 3: So let's go with. 1568 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,760 Speaker 4: Jones on the Auburn points over eleven and a half. 1569 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 4: Michigan State will try to lock down on Broom, giving 1570 01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:31,360 Speaker 4: Jones some open looks. Jones has played thirty four plus 1571 01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:34,880 Speaker 4: minutes the last two games, so I should be able 1572 01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:36,519 Speaker 4: to get to the free for a line here and 1573 01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:39,640 Speaker 4: get some points there too. There we go. There's my 1574 01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:40,439 Speaker 4: prop for the day. 1575 01:16:41,120 --> 01:16:44,120 Speaker 3: Okay, okay, stick with me here, guys. 1576 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:49,559 Speaker 2: I like the Washington Capitals over three and a half goals, 1577 01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:54,120 Speaker 2: all right, A couple of things here. They scored a 1578 01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 2: ton of goals, but they haven't their last two games 1579 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:57,920 Speaker 2: on the road, they scored four and they scored two. 1580 01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:01,880 Speaker 2: They're back home against Buffalo, who is terrible on defense. 1581 01:17:01,880 --> 01:17:06,000 Speaker 2: Buffaloes twenty ninth in goals against Washington is number one 1582 01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:09,760 Speaker 2: in goals. Four They're back home, So I think the 1583 01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:12,040 Speaker 2: Capital scored a bunch of goals, tam. But also every 1584 01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:16,680 Speaker 2: Ovechkin game I wager on four things, okay, and it's 1585 01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:20,160 Speaker 2: made money. Right as can score goal. Avech can have 1586 01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:23,040 Speaker 2: over three and a half shots on goal, and he 1587 01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:24,920 Speaker 2: did not score last game. He sort of scores like 1588 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:27,240 Speaker 2: every sort of every other game. And then I take 1589 01:17:28,160 --> 01:17:31,400 Speaker 2: last goal scorer and I've added to third period goal 1590 01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:33,040 Speaker 2: score because at the end of these games, guys, he's 1591 01:17:33,160 --> 01:17:35,920 Speaker 2: hunting on this record, right, the Gretzky record. He just 1592 01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 2: sort of, for back of a better term, just cherry picks. 1593 01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:41,720 Speaker 2: He stands by the goal and they just throw the 1594 01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:43,680 Speaker 2: ball to the ball. I throw the puck at him. 1595 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,680 Speaker 2: He tries to score. If there's an empty net, he 1596 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:49,000 Speaker 2: plays a longer shift in the last three minutes to 1597 01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 2: get the puck and empty net. So these are all 1598 01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,080 Speaker 2: sort of plays I make when the Capitols are playing. 1599 01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:56,439 Speaker 2: The added the team total today and they're back at home. 1600 01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:59,320 Speaker 2: They played better. So give me caps over three and 1601 01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:00,960 Speaker 2: a half one sprinkle the other stuff. 1602 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:03,439 Speaker 3: Goalscorer three over three half shots on gold. 1603 01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:06,480 Speaker 2: Then sprinkle last goal scorer, sprinkle third period goalscorer. 1604 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:07,360 Speaker 4: Go ahead. 1605 01:18:08,240 --> 01:18:14,000 Speaker 1: Okay, like that breakdown here, a little puck fever, Yeah, yeah. 1606 01:18:14,080 --> 01:18:16,240 Speaker 2: Something different. I don't have a lot of college basketball props. 1607 01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 2: Say you going much NBA right now? So I like, 1608 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:20,559 Speaker 2: I like the NHL one. 1609 01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:24,280 Speaker 1: I'll give you an NBA play. I'm gonna take ur 1610 01:18:24,400 --> 01:18:27,719 Speaker 1: J Barrett for the Raptors over seventeen and a half. 1611 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 1: They're playing the Sixers on the second day of a 1612 01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:35,320 Speaker 1: back to back. Let's just start with that. They're playing 1613 01:18:35,400 --> 01:18:39,200 Speaker 1: the Sixers who can't win to save their lives. On 1614 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:40,559 Speaker 1: the second day of a back. 1615 01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:42,600 Speaker 3: You cast your Have you cast your wager yet on that? 1616 01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:49,200 Speaker 1: You're I probably have. I forget what it was. Was 1617 01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:52,280 Speaker 1: it like thirty three and a half or something like that. Yeah, 1618 01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:56,240 Speaker 1: so yeah, I guess it's already cashed. They don't have 1619 01:18:56,360 --> 01:19:00,400 Speaker 1: enough games left to hit the over. So yeah, Oh 1620 01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:02,080 Speaker 1: I love the Philly under man. 1621 01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:02,519 Speaker 9: It was. 1622 01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:06,640 Speaker 1: They're just gonna shut everybody down. They suck anyway. You know, 1623 01:19:06,800 --> 01:19:09,639 Speaker 1: this season's a wrap. They're not even close to hitting 1624 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:12,200 Speaker 1: the the ind season over. So yeah, it was a 1625 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:13,800 Speaker 1: good one. But give me r J. 1626 01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:14,280 Speaker 4: Barrett. 1627 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 1: Let's keep fading. Philly for Toronto quickly is out, Grady 1628 01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:25,320 Speaker 1: Dick is out, brandon Ingram is out like he's one 1629 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:27,320 Speaker 1: of their scorers. He's missed a lot of times. So 1630 01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:30,519 Speaker 1: someone's got a score and against Philly, I like RJ. 1631 01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:30,960 Speaker 4: Barrett. 1632 01:19:30,960 --> 01:19:33,920 Speaker 1: It's gonna be r J.

Fellas, we've got Tennessee taking 1658 01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:59,360 Speaker 1: on Houston. Here in Indianapolis, we've got defensive minded teams 1659 01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:03,880 Speaker 1: shooting in a football stadium. That might be one of 1660 01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:06,320 Speaker 1: the reasons why the total is one twenty four and 1661 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 1: a half and it's ticked up a little bit. Crack, 1662 01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:11,120 Speaker 1: Where did this open? Didn't open around one twenty two 1663 01:21:11,160 --> 01:21:11,559 Speaker 1: and a half. 1664 01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 4: I apologize guys, of course, again just firing away on 1665 01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,920 Speaker 4: so many different I get information every second here of 1666 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:21,920 Speaker 4: the day. So sorry. It opened up one twenty three 1667 01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:23,519 Speaker 4: and a half though, but it went up to one 1668 01:21:23,560 --> 01:21:27,360 Speaker 4: twenty four and a half and it's settling now. There's 1669 01:21:27,360 --> 01:21:30,280 Speaker 4: a couple, a couple of places I respect that moved 1670 01:21:30,320 --> 01:21:32,599 Speaker 4: the lines that take some pretty big bets that are 1671 01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:35,519 Speaker 4: settling now, like one twenty five two of them even 1672 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:38,720 Speaker 4: BETMGM over one twenty four and a half minus one 1673 01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:43,080 Speaker 4: point fifteen. I hate laying the extra juice, so you know, 1674 01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:47,400 Speaker 4: to be real blunt, I just you know, when it 1675 01:21:47,479 --> 01:21:50,360 Speaker 4: comes to these low totals, they tend to go low. 1676 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:52,840 Speaker 4: I mean, so I'm going to stay away from uh 1677 01:21:53,479 --> 01:21:55,960 Speaker 4: from this right now, we have about two and a 1678 01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:57,639 Speaker 4: half hours to go. I like to see the late 1679 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 4: money late money, like to see where this game up. 1680 01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:02,920 Speaker 4: I wouldn't doubt it goes. You know now that it 1681 01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:04,720 Speaker 4: came up to like one twenty five at some of 1682 01:22:04,760 --> 01:22:08,200 Speaker 4: the shops that I really respect, I wouldn't be surprised 1683 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 4: maybe to get some buyback right right at game time, 1684 01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:10,920 Speaker 4: we'll see. 1685 01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:14,040 Speaker 2: I feel like everyone I feigned is going to be 1686 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,680 Speaker 2: on the over in this game, so I might have it. 1687 01:22:16,720 --> 01:22:19,080 Speaker 2: I might have an underplay at some point. Uh the 1688 01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:23,360 Speaker 2: uh the voice had had their day for about two 1689 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:25,920 Speaker 2: weeks there. The voice is not having the day anymore. 1690 01:22:26,040 --> 01:22:28,720 Speaker 2: So we made some money back thankfully on UH on 1691 01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:30,760 Speaker 2: the old voice there. So that's that's still gonna be 1692 01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:34,120 Speaker 2: a voice overplay, right, Brian, you mentioned it about the 1693 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 2: football stadium. It's not even they're in one half of 1694 01:22:37,960 --> 01:22:40,120 Speaker 2: the football side. So okay, So I don't know if 1695 01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:41,880 Speaker 2: you remember this. I don't know why I remember it, 1696 01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:43,920 Speaker 2: But do you remember the Spur When the Spurs played 1697 01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:46,880 Speaker 2: the Alamo Dome. They played like on one side Alamodome 1698 01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 2: and they put like a screen up, but it's sort 1699 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:51,519 Speaker 2: of like a full arena, like that one side that 1700 01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:56,200 Speaker 2: was toward the field had seats, not this case. The 1701 01:22:56,320 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 2: one side it's tucked into like an end zone, and 1702 01:22:59,479 --> 01:23:02,479 Speaker 2: the one open side has just a small bleachers, and 1703 01:23:02,560 --> 01:23:04,880 Speaker 2: then the rest of the crowd is on the like 1704 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:06,800 Speaker 2: three quarters of the court. 1705 01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:07,320 Speaker 3: It's weird. 1706 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:08,960 Speaker 2: It's not even the middle, which which we have a 1707 01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:11,679 Speaker 2: final four. It's just I don't know what was what's 1708 01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:13,679 Speaker 2: the game? Bridgefield? He is not like usable. 1709 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:14,080 Speaker 3: I don't honor. 1710 01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:17,679 Speaker 2: It just makes no it makes no sense. It doesn't 1711 01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:20,280 Speaker 2: benefit anyone. To your point about the shooting, it doesn't 1712 01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:23,479 Speaker 2: help the shooting. More fans I don't think are there. 1713 01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 2: I mean, they didn't know that two teams close by 1714 01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:28,360 Speaker 2: were gonna be in you know, in this region. So 1715 01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:30,720 Speaker 2: I don't get it. I think it's not great for 1716 01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:34,960 Speaker 2: the sport to have to have this look. But nonetheless, 1717 01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 2: I think Houston they still have their periods where they 1718 01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:42,880 Speaker 2: just don't scre enough Brian, but they're much better than 1719 01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:45,320 Speaker 2: they have been in previous years to have guys that 1720 01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:47,640 Speaker 2: can put the ball in the hoop a little more consistently. 1721 01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:51,040 Speaker 2: I wouldn't in Houston to to win and cover this 1722 01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:54,840 Speaker 2: game the total. I mean, look, they won the other 1723 01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:57,320 Speaker 2: day sixty two to sixty like that. That that's under 1724 01:23:57,840 --> 01:24:00,880 Speaker 2: that falls under in this game. So again, I would 1725 01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 2: probably lean to playing the under or nothing in this game. 1726 01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:06,760 Speaker 2: Maybe you get a fast start and you can buy 1727 01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:09,479 Speaker 2: a little bit of of of live under at some 1728 01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,599 Speaker 2: point as well, which is an option in this game. 1729 01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:15,200 Speaker 2: I feel bad that I think I hate being on 1730 01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:19,040 Speaker 2: the side of all the favorites, but I mean, I 1731 01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:21,560 Speaker 2: just I feel like the favorite is gonna win and 1732 01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:23,400 Speaker 2: cover in these games. We have four one seeds for 1733 01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:24,960 Speaker 2: the first time ever. Has it ever happened? 1734 01:24:25,360 --> 01:24:30,639 Speaker 1: It's happened one time before the oh wait in sportsbooks. Yeah, 1735 01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:36,880 Speaker 1: I might get it again. Ye sports books collection bucket 1736 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: and everything. But yeah, how crazy is that? That's a 1737 01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:45,320 Speaker 1: that's probably is irony here where it would happen in 1738 01:24:45,400 --> 01:24:48,519 Speaker 1: San Antonio. Again, you wouldn't expect that, right, But it 1739 01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:51,479 Speaker 1: happened once before in San Antonio with all one seeds 1740 01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:53,439 Speaker 1: making it and that was the only time and we're 1741 01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:55,920 Speaker 1: back in San Antonio this season, so it's kind of 1742 01:24:55,960 --> 01:24:59,439 Speaker 1: strange that might happen again. But yeah, that the curtain 1743 01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:03,320 Speaker 1: thing is, so they're playing in a football stadium, but 1744 01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:07,320 Speaker 1: the whole stadium isn't available, right they don't. It'd be 1745 01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:10,559 Speaker 1: like sixty some thousand people if it was fully open, 1746 01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 1: but it's only thirty thousand. So it's like, well, then, 1747 01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:17,760 Speaker 1: why why are they playing in a thirty thousand seat 1748 01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:20,640 Speaker 1: stadium that as far as the site lines and the 1749 01:25:21,479 --> 01:25:24,160 Speaker 1: shooting depth and all of that, like you're thrown off 1750 01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:28,320 Speaker 1: for ten thousand extra people. Okay, I don't know that's 1751 01:25:28,400 --> 01:25:30,840 Speaker 1: really worth it, but that's one of the things going 1752 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:33,120 Speaker 1: on here. I don't think it is at all. But 1753 01:25:34,040 --> 01:25:36,160 Speaker 1: you made this point earlier. Jeff thought it was interesting. 1754 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:39,280 Speaker 1: Fran Fascilla, he threw it out there where, hey, maybe 1755 01:25:39,360 --> 01:25:42,960 Speaker 1: college basketball is going to be officiated differently going forward, 1756 01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:48,640 Speaker 1: where it's really physical. It's more so toward like FOBA basketball. 1757 01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:52,960 Speaker 1: You watch the Olympics, like international basketball, it's so physical. 1758 01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:55,600 Speaker 1: They let you get away with a lot that the 1759 01:25:55,840 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 1: NBA does not let you get away with. And right 1760 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 1: now the college games officiated a little bit more. It's 1761 01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,439 Speaker 1: leaning more toward FOEBA and the physical play than the 1762 01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:08,720 Speaker 1: NBA and opening it up a little bit more and 1763 01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:13,200 Speaker 1: more scoring, more free flowing. And yeah, I agree with 1764 01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:16,200 Speaker 1: fran I think that college basketball is gonna look and say, hey, 1765 01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:20,000 Speaker 1: we don't need football on hardwood here. But some of 1766 01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:22,760 Speaker 1: these games, this Tennessee Houston matchup, that's what it's gonna be. 1767 01:26:23,040 --> 01:26:25,840 Speaker 1: It is gonna be so physical and they're gonna let 1768 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:27,280 Speaker 1: them get away with a lot of stuff. 1769 01:26:27,520 --> 01:26:29,680 Speaker 2: Well so, but then curtain and the physicality means that 1770 01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 2: we have more we have more fouls, which I don't 1771 01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:33,559 Speaker 2: think we want either. Do you know what's the solution 1772 01:26:33,640 --> 01:26:37,960 Speaker 2: in my opinion to some of this. Brian alleviate fouls 1773 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:40,320 Speaker 2: and foul shots as going to the quarter system where 1774 01:26:40,360 --> 01:26:43,559 Speaker 2: the fouls are set after ten minutes. Women's college basketball 1775 01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:45,960 Speaker 2: does it e in the flow of the game is 1776 01:26:46,280 --> 01:26:50,000 Speaker 2: much better than because of that, less foul shots you 1777 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:52,960 Speaker 2: get less. I mean, you've seen it's a lot of fouls, 1778 01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 2: but either less foul shots, game is less bogged down. 1779 01:26:57,080 --> 01:26:58,800 Speaker 2: That to me feels like a solution for some of this. 1780 01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:00,439 Speaker 2: So we'll see they do that. 1781 01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:01,320 Speaker 3: I doubt it. 1782 01:27:03,080 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 2: What have you made by the way, of Geno Arima 1783 01:27:07,040 --> 01:27:11,840 Speaker 2: Kim Moulke the anger about the system of women's college 1784 01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:16,400 Speaker 2: basketball tournament, I agree with them. I mean, I'm shocked 1785 01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:20,599 Speaker 2: that they put a regional, a super regional essentially in Spokane, Washington. 1786 01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:26,320 Speaker 2: I have played in Pullman, Washington, which is two hours away. 1787 01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:32,559 Speaker 2: I don't know, no offense to Eastern Washington at all, 1788 01:27:32,880 --> 01:27:37,559 Speaker 2: but I mean, would you see it men's Sweet sixteen 1789 01:27:37,680 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 2: Elite eight tournament in Spokane, Washington. 1790 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,920 Speaker 3: You might see, you might see a first round matchup there. 1791 01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:47,639 Speaker 1: Fine, but I mean not a regional. I love Geno's rant. 1792 01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:49,280 Speaker 1: I've got the audio for you, we'll play it for you. 1793 01:27:49,400 --> 01:27:52,160 Speaker 1: But so for the people that are like, wait, what's 1794 01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,760 Speaker 1: this about. So it used to be four sites. Think 1795 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:58,679 Speaker 1: of college men's college basketball, right, we have these four sites. 1796 01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:02,840 Speaker 2: It's a Atlanta, it's Indianapolis, it's New Jersey and. 1797 01:28:03,720 --> 01:28:07,479 Speaker 1: San Francis yep, yep. So those four sites in the 1798 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:10,680 Speaker 1: women's game, they just put it down to two. They 1799 01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:14,560 Speaker 1: are only two sites. So yesterday Yukon was playing Oklahoma 1800 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:19,240 Speaker 1: and Spokane, Washington. Think about the journey for those schools 1801 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:21,880 Speaker 1: to go to Spokane. And this is what Geno ari Ema. 1802 01:28:22,120 --> 01:28:25,640 Speaker 1: You know, yukont head coach. It's beautiful what he had 1803 01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:27,400 Speaker 1: to say. It's funny how he lays it out. Check 1804 01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:27,720 Speaker 1: this out. 1805 01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:30,400 Speaker 10: Whoever came up with this super regional stuff, and I 1806 01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:33,000 Speaker 10: know who they are? Ruined the game. They did, They 1807 01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:35,479 Speaker 10: ruined the game. Half the country has no chance to 1808 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:38,280 Speaker 10: get to a game in person. But you're making billions 1809 01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:40,880 Speaker 10: off of TV. Well, actually you're not. That would be 1810 01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:43,200 Speaker 10: the men's tournament. So yeah, there's a lot of issues 1811 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:43,720 Speaker 10: that they need. 1812 01:28:43,720 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 4: To fix, right there, Come on, that's great. 1813 01:28:48,880 --> 01:28:51,200 Speaker 3: Kim Oki went on yesterday too, ls US head coach 1814 01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:51,479 Speaker 3: about it. 1815 01:28:51,479 --> 01:28:55,040 Speaker 2: I think they're in Spokane too, right about about just 1816 01:28:55,200 --> 01:28:58,360 Speaker 2: like the idea that, like ours, they said, my fans 1817 01:28:58,400 --> 01:28:59,479 Speaker 2: can't get to the games. 1818 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:04,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, what are we doing? What what imagine beers like that? 1819 01:29:04,520 --> 01:29:10,720 Speaker 2: What baton rouge to Spokane? Well, you drive to New 1820 01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:14,200 Speaker 2: Orleans and fly to Denver and then fly at Spokane 1821 01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:16,280 Speaker 2: or not many flights. I would imagine that they're direct 1822 01:29:16,320 --> 01:29:19,840 Speaker 2: from New Orleans of Spokane. Yeah, I agree, Like, it's 1823 01:29:19,880 --> 01:29:22,360 Speaker 2: not it's just not I think how you want to 1824 01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:22,920 Speaker 2: grow your game? 1825 01:29:23,920 --> 01:29:23,960 Speaker 1: No? 1826 01:29:24,280 --> 01:29:26,640 Speaker 4: Absolutely no, Yeah, hey guys, just to go back to 1827 01:29:26,720 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 4: the Tennessee Houston too, it's just thinking about it. That's 1828 01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:32,080 Speaker 4: another game with like two Hall of Fame coaches to 1829 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:36,040 Speaker 4: going head to head. Barnes and Samson are they're at 1830 01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:38,800 Speaker 4: the end of their coaching careers and neither has a 1831 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:43,160 Speaker 4: championship under their belt yet. You know again, and just 1832 01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:45,559 Speaker 4: to give my little two cents here, both these teams 1833 01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:48,200 Speaker 4: really play sound defenses. You can see a lot of 1834 01:29:48,240 --> 01:29:50,600 Speaker 4: mishots turnovers in this one. That's why the total is 1835 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,600 Speaker 4: what it is. Houston had some issues holding on the 1836 01:29:53,720 --> 01:29:55,880 Speaker 4: leads late in the second half, and Tennessee can really 1837 01:29:55,960 --> 01:29:58,599 Speaker 4: pressure you. So it's going to be interesting to see 1838 01:29:58,640 --> 01:30:01,920 Speaker 4: what happens in this game the last couple of minutes really, 1839 01:30:02,320 --> 01:30:04,519 Speaker 4: so Tennessee will have to They're going to have to 1840 01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:07,040 Speaker 4: have a good day, like from the outside of the arch, 1841 01:30:07,160 --> 01:30:11,000 Speaker 4: because Houston really forces you to shoot jump shops and 1842 01:30:11,320 --> 01:30:15,519 Speaker 4: three pointers. And this one really maybe we talk about 1843 01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:17,960 Speaker 4: this total. It might be the first team to break 1844 01:30:18,040 --> 01:30:20,240 Speaker 4: sixty wins the game, so yeah, it could be. 1845 01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:24,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a big legacy game for Rick Barnes 1846 01:30:24,800 --> 01:30:27,599 Speaker 2: because the knock on him is just sort of can't 1847 01:30:27,640 --> 01:30:30,240 Speaker 2: get it done right in these in these tournament moments, 1848 01:30:30,280 --> 01:30:32,360 Speaker 2: and they are the underdog. So if they lose, I 1849 01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:35,240 Speaker 2: don't think it's it's it's sustained on his legacy. But 1850 01:30:35,640 --> 01:30:38,880 Speaker 2: can you imagine the legacy boost if he takes down 1851 01:30:38,960 --> 01:30:41,599 Speaker 2: Houston and this game goes to the final four. I mean, 1852 01:30:41,760 --> 01:30:43,960 Speaker 2: it would be such an incredible boost in his career. 1853 01:30:44,760 --> 01:30:48,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and both teams, both Houston and Tennessee, they've never 1854 01:30:48,439 --> 01:30:51,240 Speaker 1: been to a final four. So if you're able to 1855 01:30:51,320 --> 01:30:53,880 Speaker 1: take a school that's never been there before, that that's 1856 01:30:53,880 --> 01:30:56,679 Speaker 1: a big deal for Rick Barnes. So yeah, they both 1857 01:30:56,720 --> 01:31:00,840 Speaker 1: schools have the most tournament appearances without final four. So 1858 01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:04,000 Speaker 1: Houston's been in it thirty one times, no final fours, 1859 01:31:04,360 --> 01:31:07,160 Speaker 1: Tennessee twenty six times, and they're still looking for their 1860 01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:10,160 Speaker 1: first final fours. So that's at play here too. And 1861 01:31:10,439 --> 01:31:13,360 Speaker 1: the matchup is really interesting where something to keep an 1862 01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:18,000 Speaker 1: eye on. I love this stat. So Hunter Dickinson from Kansas, 1863 01:31:18,439 --> 01:31:25,160 Speaker 1: he was doing some guest analysis on CBS HQ and 1864 01:31:25,280 --> 01:31:29,040 Speaker 1: he had a fact with Houston. He said, when Kansas 1865 01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:33,479 Speaker 1: played at Houston in the regular season, Yeah, Houston missed 1866 01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:38,320 Speaker 1: more shots than Kansas took. Think about that, he missed 1867 01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:41,280 Speaker 1: more than Kansas took. So it's all these extra possessions 1868 01:31:41,680 --> 01:31:45,240 Speaker 1: for Houston. They hit the offensive glass, they turn you over. 1869 01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:48,760 Speaker 1: They just get more shots. So that's the thing. We 1870 01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:52,360 Speaker 1: always talk about efficiency. That matters, Yeah, but bulk matters 1871 01:31:52,400 --> 01:31:55,599 Speaker 1: two volume. If you're just getting more shots, your odds 1872 01:31:55,600 --> 01:31:58,040 Speaker 1: are a lot better to win. So keep an eye 1873 01:31:58,120 --> 01:32:00,960 Speaker 1: on how many more shots Houston is able to generate, 1874 01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:02,960 Speaker 1: because that could be a big deal in this matchup. 1875 01:32:04,080 --> 01:32:06,519 Speaker 4: Can I make you guys laugh about something? Mumbles crying 1876 01:32:06,560 --> 01:32:08,840 Speaker 4: about this. So a buddy of mine just text me 1877 01:32:08,880 --> 01:32:13,000 Speaker 4: and says, hey, Memphis today plus seven is a really 1878 01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:16,880 Speaker 4: good play, he thinks on USFL. So I go to 1879 01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:19,080 Speaker 4: the game where I go to the game where he 1880 01:32:19,160 --> 01:32:21,640 Speaker 4: says it, and I said, it doesn't say Memphis, it 1881 01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:25,400 Speaker 4: says panthers versus showboats.

One last thing though, 1941 01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 1: and I'm waiting for one of my guys back home. 1942 01:35:16,600 --> 01:35:18,960 Speaker 1: He told me he's two to zero with his UFL bets. 1943 01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:21,240 Speaker 1: He's got two more today. I'm not sure what they are, 1944 01:35:21,600 --> 01:35:23,320 Speaker 1: but if he hits me back, I'll let you know 1945 01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:25,759 Speaker 1: what they are. But one last thing on the Tennessee 1946 01:35:25,840 --> 01:35:31,439 Speaker 1: Houston thing is so Houston. The last game against Purdue, 1947 01:35:31,840 --> 01:35:34,719 Speaker 1: would they would double and they would blitz the point 1948 01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:39,080 Speaker 1: guard Braiden Smith, But Braiden Smith still had fifteen assists. 1949 01:35:39,720 --> 01:35:42,360 Speaker 1: So think about that today with Sekai Ziegler, who does 1950 01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:46,439 Speaker 1: such a great job just orchestrating Tennessee's offense. If they 1951 01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:49,920 Speaker 1: blitz him, if they double him, if they still get 1952 01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:52,679 Speaker 1: the ball back to him where he can, like Braiden 1953 01:35:52,720 --> 01:35:55,920 Speaker 1: Smith's still have a high assist total. He had tenn 1954 01:35:55,920 --> 01:35:58,560 Speaker 1: assists last game against Kentucky. So I really want to 1955 01:35:58,600 --> 01:36:00,840 Speaker 1: see what Ziegler does in this game because he's had 1956 01:36:00,920 --> 01:36:01,880 Speaker 1: such a great season. 1957 01:36:02,040 --> 01:36:04,479 Speaker 2: He's something In Kentucky. You can't make any shot, you 1958 01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:06,280 Speaker 2: can't make any three in Kentucky. He shooting like ten 1959 01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:07,719 Speaker 2: percent from three point against Kentucky. 1960 01:36:08,160 --> 01:36:12,240 Speaker 1: Well, that shooting is a different story, but like initiating 1961 01:36:12,320 --> 01:36:15,840 Speaker 1: the offense setting others up, like if they're putting the 1962 01:36:15,920 --> 01:36:19,559 Speaker 1: clamps on Ziegler, he's the engine, you know. So that's 1963 01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:22,800 Speaker 1: a battle right there, Houston's defense versus Ziegler if he 1964 01:36:22,840 --> 01:36:25,639 Speaker 1: can get others involved. Chas Lanier has been really really 1965 01:36:25,680 --> 01:36:27,720 Speaker 1: good in this tournament. Sharpshooter. 1966 01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,200 Speaker 2: So oh no, no, sorry, it's Lanear that that's batting 1967 01:36:30,240 --> 01:36:32,439 Speaker 2: oft Kentucky. He's like ten percent shoot from three and 1968 01:36:32,560 --> 01:36:34,479 Speaker 2: forty everyone else, that's what's Lanear. 1969 01:36:34,560 --> 01:36:34,800 Speaker 4: Sorry. 1970 01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:39,120 Speaker 1: Oh okay, gotcha?

Jesus. 2079 01:41:38,360 --> 01:41:40,920 Speaker 1: I wonder what it was last year with Caitlin Clark 2080 01:41:42,160 --> 01:41:42,599 Speaker 1: in Iowa. 2081 01:41:43,040 --> 01:41:46,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I have Yukon winning the women's championships. That's what 2082 01:41:46,479 --> 01:41:49,600 Speaker 2: if everyone's curious. I have futures on them, and I 2083 01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:51,800 Speaker 2: just think they're they're one seed even though they're like 2084 01:41:51,880 --> 01:41:54,439 Speaker 2: a two. It's kind of sing Juju's out like us, 2085 01:41:54,479 --> 01:41:58,639 Speaker 2: he's out. I will tell you I would it's not today. 2086 01:41:58,960 --> 01:42:05,720 Speaker 2: I would wager on Yukon to thoroughly beat USC. It's 2087 01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:08,160 Speaker 2: thirteen and a half right now. I think that's gonna 2088 01:42:08,160 --> 01:42:08,639 Speaker 2: be man. 2089 01:42:08,760 --> 01:42:10,560 Speaker 1: That was one of my big bets last year. I 2090 01:42:10,640 --> 01:42:14,880 Speaker 1: took Yukon against USC when Juju was playing, and I 2091 01:42:15,000 --> 01:42:18,120 Speaker 1: just thought it was fishy, like Yukon was favored by 2092 01:42:18,200 --> 01:42:20,639 Speaker 1: three and a half and there's a whole thing leading 2093 01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:23,160 Speaker 1: up to it. But I thought that was the right side, 2094 01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:25,559 Speaker 1: and it turned out to be. It's funny because Yukon 2095 01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:29,080 Speaker 1: went on that spurt last year and built a healthy lead. 2096 01:42:29,080 --> 01:42:31,760 Speaker 1: They're up by double digits. They could not make a 2097 01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:35,360 Speaker 1: free throw, and I'm just like, oh my gosh, if 2098 01:42:35,439 --> 01:42:38,080 Speaker 1: I lose this because you can't make a free throw 2099 01:42:38,160 --> 01:42:41,200 Speaker 1: down the stretch, but they got there. Yukon's looked good. 2100 01:42:41,439 --> 01:42:43,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what's up with South Carolina. South Carolina's 2101 01:42:43,840 --> 01:42:44,839 Speaker 1: looked pretty vulnerable. 2102 01:42:45,320 --> 01:42:47,080 Speaker 2: Worried about them today, but I only think it was 2103 01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:47,920 Speaker 2: good enough to beat them. 2104 01:42:48,800 --> 01:42:52,720 Speaker 1: So that was Man, you talk about a rock fight. 2105 01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:56,080 Speaker 1: We're talking about Houston and Tennessee today. But that Duke 2106 01:42:56,200 --> 01:42:57,519 Speaker 1: North Carolina game. 2107 01:42:57,760 --> 01:43:01,160 Speaker 2: My lord, I think I sent you the screenshot of 2108 01:43:01,200 --> 01:43:03,000 Speaker 2: the final score was like, this doesn't look real. It 2109 01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:05,000 Speaker 2: was the forty eight thirty nine. 2110 01:43:05,080 --> 01:43:05,519 Speaker 4: I think. 2111 01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:09,000 Speaker 2: I feel like we've reached our quota. Though women's college 2112 01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:13,080 Speaker 2: basketball discussion craps about sleep about to keel over and. 2113 01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:15,760 Speaker 4: Actually, if I tell you what I'm doing, I'm on 2114 01:43:15,840 --> 01:43:18,040 Speaker 4: the bet MGM, Matt Pair.

And actually, something in baseball 2141 01:44:22,040 --> 01:44:24,840 Speaker 1: is really interesting that happened yesterday with both of those things. 2142 01:44:24,960 --> 01:44:28,720 Speaker 1: Nets that's right. First though, I low, who's got the 2143 01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:31,960 Speaker 1: latest here? I thought every time that he tells us 2144 01:44:32,000 --> 01:44:36,760 Speaker 1: about Kevin Willard leaving Maryland, in my head, I'm like 2145 01:44:37,240 --> 01:44:40,000 Speaker 1: to take the Memphis Grizzlies job, you know, Like, but 2146 01:44:40,720 --> 01:44:43,799 Speaker 1: that would be a twist. Right now, He's going to Villanova. 2147 01:44:44,320 --> 01:44:45,760 Speaker 1: But what else is going on here? 2148 01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:46,120 Speaker 4: I love? 2149 01:44:46,240 --> 01:44:49,920 Speaker 7: Well, I'll tell you what, because of the situation that's 2150 01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:55,280 Speaker 7: not out of the realm of possibility. Maryland, Villanova, Memphis 2151 01:44:56,000 --> 01:44:56,679 Speaker 7: coach Willard? 2152 01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:57,160 Speaker 4: What do you think? 2153 01:44:57,320 --> 01:44:58,200 Speaker 3: I don't know what I'm doing. 2154 01:44:58,240 --> 01:44:59,160 Speaker 4: I'll just be honest with you. 2155 01:44:59,439 --> 01:45:00,320 Speaker 6: Well, there you go. 2156 01:45:01,120 --> 01:45:03,519 Speaker 7: But that is indeed our top story because in college 2157 01:45:03,560 --> 01:45:07,200 Speaker 7: basketball today, multiple outlets reported that Maryland head coach Kevin 2158 01:45:07,240 --> 01:45:09,760 Speaker 7: Willard is leaving to become the new head coach at 2159 01:45:09,920 --> 01:45:13,559 Speaker 7: Villanova for now.

Although it'll 2184 01:46:31,439 --> 01:46:36,800 Speaker 7: be also fair, the estate of Steve Jobs probably made 2185 01:46:36,840 --> 01:46:38,920 Speaker 7: a pretty penny this weekend. I don't know how it 2186 01:46:39,000 --> 01:46:39,559 Speaker 7: all works, but. 2187 01:46:39,840 --> 01:46:41,639 Speaker 1: That's not too big of an assumption. 2188 01:46:41,760 --> 01:46:42,000 Speaker 2: Worry. 2189 01:46:42,400 --> 01:46:42,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, right. 2190 01:46:43,400 --> 01:46:47,439 Speaker 7: Finally, in Major League Baseball, the Toronto Blue Jays today 2191 01:46:47,760 --> 01:46:50,519 Speaker 7: plays Max Scherzer on the fifteen day injured list with 2192 01:46:50,720 --> 01:46:54,280 Speaker 7: right thumb inflammation.

So, yeah, the Yankees yesterday they scored twenty runs. 2203 01:47:22,400 --> 01:47:26,640 Speaker 1: They hit nine home runs against the Brewers. And there 2204 01:47:26,720 --> 01:47:30,280 Speaker 1: was something really interesting that Michael Kay said on Yes. Yeah, 2205 01:47:30,360 --> 01:47:34,439 Speaker 1: he was talking about the barrel of the Yankees' bats. 2206 01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:39,360 Speaker 1: The barrel is placed a little bit differently to them. Yeah, yeah, 2207 01:47:39,400 --> 01:47:41,320 Speaker 1: they moved it. So here's a here. Listen to this 2208 01:47:41,439 --> 01:47:45,280 Speaker 1: real fast. Here's Michael Kay on Yes, the Yankee front. 2209 01:47:45,080 --> 01:47:48,120 Speaker 9: Office, the analytics department. He had a study on on 2210 01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:51,880 Speaker 9: Anthony Velpee and every single ball it seemed like he 2211 01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:53,479 Speaker 9: hit on the label. 2212 01:47:53,920 --> 01:47:55,240 Speaker 3: He didn't hit any on the barrel. 2213 01:47:55,880 --> 01:47:58,200 Speaker 9: So they had bats made up where they moved a 2214 01:47:58,240 --> 01:48:01,040 Speaker 9: lot of the wood into the label, the harder part 2215 01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:02,880 Speaker 9: of the bat is going to actually strike the ball. 2216 01:48:03,520 --> 01:48:06,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks so strange, but just think about the barrel, 2217 01:48:06,640 --> 01:48:08,519 Speaker 1: like the meaty part. They just kind of moved it 2218 01:48:08,800 --> 01:48:12,160 Speaker 1: down because their analytics guys were like, that's where we're 2219 01:48:12,240 --> 01:48:15,760 Speaker 1: hitting the ball more often. So it worked yesterday nine 2220 01:48:15,760 --> 01:48:17,160 Speaker 1: home runs Franchise. 2221 01:48:16,880 --> 01:48:20,400 Speaker 4: Gros my home run props with the Jesus so. 2222 01:48:20,960 --> 01:48:24,519 Speaker 2: But yeah, so essentially where we where we see the 2223 01:48:24,640 --> 01:48:26,519 Speaker 2: thickest part of the bat is at the end of 2224 01:48:26,560 --> 01:48:31,080 Speaker 2: the bat. They move that down like two inches, so 2225 01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:34,960 Speaker 2: the the you know, the the shaft from the from 2226 01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:38,840 Speaker 2: the knob goes up and then it becomes fat around 2227 01:48:38,880 --> 01:48:40,600 Speaker 2: the where the label's at, and then it kind of 2228 01:48:41,120 --> 01:48:45,360 Speaker 2: decreases a little bit, right, Yeah, And that's a time 2229 01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:48,439 Speaker 2: of baseball bat, by the way, and you know it 2230 01:48:49,760 --> 01:48:51,000 Speaker 2: can be it's so. 2231 01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:58,040 Speaker 3: That thick, kids, It depends on how you interpret what 2232 01:48:58,120 --> 01:48:58,439 Speaker 3: I said. 2233 01:48:59,160 --> 01:49:03,200 Speaker 1: So the thick part we're not taking that out of context, is. 2234 01:49:03,880 --> 01:49:05,800 Speaker 3: Like in the middle now, So they have, they have 2235 01:49:05,880 --> 01:49:06,360 Speaker 3: pictures of it. 2236 01:49:06,520 --> 01:49:08,759 Speaker 2: I think someone from the Yankees monor league system tweeted 2237 01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:11,719 Speaker 2: out a picture of their bat too. Uh it's legal, 2238 01:49:12,280 --> 01:49:15,519 Speaker 2: all legal, by the way, because they said the rules 2239 01:49:15,640 --> 01:49:18,599 Speaker 2: just are about the thickness of the barrel, not where 2240 01:49:18,680 --> 01:49:19,479 Speaker 2: the sweet spot is. 2241 01:49:19,600 --> 01:49:19,960 Speaker 3: Essentially. 2242 01:49:20,240 --> 01:49:23,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm sure there's When we were kids, though, 2243 01:49:23,439 --> 01:49:26,680 Speaker 4: when that that that's that's gotta be, you know, we 2244 01:49:26,840 --> 01:49:28,960 Speaker 4: we always played with the end of the bat. I was. 2245 01:49:29,160 --> 01:49:31,479 Speaker 4: I loved baseball. I grew up with baseball and baseball 2246 01:49:31,479 --> 01:49:35,080 Speaker 4: and boxing. So I think that's a that if this 2247 01:49:35,280 --> 01:49:37,800 Speaker 4: catches on, I mean, it's it's gonna be something that's 2248 01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:40,519 Speaker 4: much different than when we were kids, this type of 2249 01:49:40,600 --> 01:49:44,040 Speaker 4: a bat. And uh, you know, Russ actually sent me 2250 01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:46,880 Speaker 4: he said, oh my god, there goes our home run props. 2251 01:49:46,920 --> 01:49:50,680 Speaker 4: I don't think so, but just situational eight yesterday in 2252 01:49:50,720 --> 01:49:54,120 Speaker 4: the Yankee game, I understand. But analytics. I didn't even 2253 01:49:54,120 --> 01:49:57,360 Speaker 4: know analytics played that much of a role, uh in 2254 01:49:57,560 --> 01:50:00,280 Speaker 4: baseball like it has in the past few years and 2255 01:50:00,439 --> 01:50:05,200 Speaker 4: football and stuff. You know, well, yeah, I knew, of course, moneyball, 2256 01:50:05,280 --> 01:50:08,080 Speaker 4: I know, I know, and I love moneyball, but you 2257 01:50:08,240 --> 01:50:10,919 Speaker 4: kind of think that a lot of the old fashioned 2258 01:50:11,080 --> 01:50:14,519 Speaker 4: uh you know, uh feel and touch and feel of 2259 01:50:14,600 --> 01:50:17,400 Speaker 4: the game and and just just that's come back a 2260 01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:19,760 Speaker 4: little bit. I know when football, it has a lot 2261 01:50:19,840 --> 01:50:22,720 Speaker 4: of the old old ball coaches and stuff. They they've 2262 01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:24,559 Speaker 4: kind of thrown out, not thrown out, but they got 2263 01:50:24,640 --> 01:50:27,200 Speaker 4: rid of a lot of different analytics. Has had five 2264 01:50:27,240 --> 01:50:28,920 Speaker 4: to six guys. Now they're down to one or two 2265 01:50:29,040 --> 01:50:31,080 Speaker 4: or even maybe even getting rid of it altogether. 2266 01:50:31,200 --> 01:50:34,320 Speaker 1: So, by the way, it was funny with Aaron Boone, 2267 01:50:34,360 --> 01:50:36,840 Speaker 1: the Yankees manager. So they asked him after the game, like, 2268 01:50:36,880 --> 01:50:38,720 Speaker 1: have you ever been part of a game where there 2269 01:50:38,760 --> 01:50:40,800 Speaker 1: have been nine home runs hit by one team? And 2270 01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:42,559 Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, we did it with the Reds. 2271 01:50:42,600 --> 01:50:45,200 Speaker 1: I actually hit the first home run we had. It 2272 01:50:45,360 --> 01:50:48,280 Speaker 1: was really funny. Let me throw some football at you 2273 01:50:48,360 --> 01:50:50,040 Speaker 1: real fast, because I'm curious what you think about this. 2274 01:50:50,320 --> 01:50:54,200 Speaker 1: So Russell Wilson signed with the Giants. Giants also signed 2275 01:50:54,280 --> 01:50:57,160 Speaker 1: Jameis Winston. So to many it might feel like, well, 2276 01:50:57,600 --> 01:51:00,439 Speaker 1: they're probably out of the mix for Shadu or sand Yeah, 2277 01:51:00,920 --> 01:51:04,080 Speaker 1: but not so fast, right. If you think a couple examples, 2278 01:51:04,120 --> 01:51:07,040 Speaker 1: think about Atlanta. So they guaranteed one hundred million dollars 2279 01:51:07,080 --> 01:51:09,920 Speaker 1: for Kirk Cousins last year, and then they drafted Michael 2280 01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:13,280 Speaker 1: Pennix junior. And also think about the Broncos. The Broncos 2281 01:51:13,360 --> 01:51:16,440 Speaker 1: had all that dead money tied up with Russell Wilson's 2282 01:51:16,479 --> 01:51:20,400 Speaker 1: contract and they still drafted Bo Nicks. So I wouldn't 2283 01:51:20,439 --> 01:51:22,920 Speaker 1: say the Giants are completely out just because they signed 2284 01:51:23,120 --> 01:51:27,200 Speaker 1: Russ and Jamis Winston. It's really just how high are 2285 01:51:27,240 --> 01:51:30,400 Speaker 1: they on Shaduur Sanders. That's going to be the reason 2286 01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:31,160 Speaker 1: they're in or out. 2287 01:51:33,360 --> 01:51:36,519 Speaker 2: I for the one hundredth time I'll say this, I 2288 01:51:36,680 --> 01:51:38,960 Speaker 2: do not believe she Joe Sanders gets passed two with 2289 01:51:39,080 --> 01:51:43,680 Speaker 2: the Browns. Wow, Browns do not have a quarterback for 2290 01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:47,880 Speaker 2: this season. Kenny Pickett is their current quarterback right now. 2291 01:51:48,400 --> 01:51:48,840 Speaker 4: That is it? 2292 01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:52,679 Speaker 2: The last three excuse me, two seasons. I'll talk my heads. 2293 01:51:52,720 --> 01:51:55,320 Speaker 2: I've written about this, I've talked about. Their quarterbacks have 2294 01:51:55,400 --> 01:52:03,400 Speaker 2: been Deshaun Watson, right, Deshaun Watson, Joe Flack, Go, Jameis Winston, 2295 01:52:04,240 --> 01:52:09,639 Speaker 2: p J Walker, Dorian Thompson, Robinson Bailey, Zappie, and Jeff Driscoll. 2296 01:52:09,680 --> 01:52:10,919 Speaker 3: Those are been the starting quarterbacks. 2297 01:52:11,320 --> 01:52:14,280 Speaker 2: Jesus, are they going to pass on drafting quarterback at 2298 01:52:14,320 --> 01:52:16,320 Speaker 2: two to get Jaylen Milrall in the second round, or 2299 01:52:16,360 --> 01:52:16,920 Speaker 2: like Queen. 2300 01:52:16,760 --> 01:52:20,000 Speaker 1: You and Jeff that just recently. Think about you know 2301 01:52:20,120 --> 01:52:23,800 Speaker 1: the famous jersey with all those names those around. 2302 01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:30,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, Joe Thomas talking about it. I uh I, I 2303 01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:33,320 Speaker 2: just just I think they drafts the dirt too. I 2304 01:52:33,360 --> 01:52:37,880 Speaker 2: don't think it gets to even the Giants so well. 2305 01:52:38,040 --> 01:52:40,800 Speaker 2: Uh well see, I mean that's I I haven't wager 2306 01:52:40,880 --> 01:52:43,320 Speaker 2: on yet. I think bet MGM now has some draft 2307 01:52:43,360 --> 01:52:48,479 Speaker 2: props up. You can draft standards to be this first 2308 01:52:48,520 --> 01:52:50,760 Speaker 2: over so sat or second overall pick is plus three 2309 01:52:50,840 --> 01:52:53,320 Speaker 2: twenty five right now, the favorites, I might bet. I'm 2310 01:52:53,360 --> 01:52:56,720 Speaker 2: gonna wait because the number is this was like two 2311 01:52:56,840 --> 01:52:58,120 Speaker 2: to one last week. 2312 01:52:58,360 --> 01:52:59,280 Speaker 3: It's gonna keep changing. 2313 01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:03,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, they do have about that, correct, No they do. 2314 01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:05,320 Speaker 4: I'm just on bet MGM right now just to see 2315 01:53:05,360 --> 01:53:08,800 Speaker 4: what they had on the the first overall pick. And 2316 01:53:09,280 --> 01:53:11,680 Speaker 4: they do have some some draft props up, but I 2317 01:53:11,720 --> 01:53:13,320 Speaker 4: don't know, just as to have the buzz it used 2318 01:53:13,320 --> 01:53:16,559 Speaker 4: to have. I used to listen the draft get there. Yeah, 2319 01:53:16,920 --> 01:53:18,040 Speaker 4: the draft props. 2320 01:53:18,360 --> 01:53:20,719 Speaker 3: There's no value in that's what that's what we're getting. 2321 01:53:20,800 --> 01:53:23,920 Speaker 4: This draft used to be a stupid money maker, stupid 2322 01:53:24,040 --> 01:53:25,360 Speaker 4: like you look at. 2323 01:53:25,320 --> 01:53:27,360 Speaker 2: These numbers, I mean there's like even right now, like 2324 01:53:27,439 --> 01:53:29,559 Speaker 2: you look at like the wagers that be MGM has up. 2325 01:53:30,160 --> 01:53:34,040 Speaker 2: I mean, should you get three three and a quarter 2326 01:53:34,160 --> 01:53:36,400 Speaker 2: to one second overall pick would be a decent would 2327 01:53:36,439 --> 01:53:41,720 Speaker 2: you right now? I mean third pick Travis Hunter is 2328 01:53:41,760 --> 01:53:45,080 Speaker 2: a favorite already, Fourth pick Travis Hunter of Dual Carter. 2329 01:53:45,240 --> 01:53:46,400 Speaker 3: I mean it just does not. 2330 01:53:48,560 --> 01:53:51,280 Speaker 2: Fifth pick is a little value. I have my fifth 2331 01:53:51,360 --> 01:53:55,360 Speaker 2: pick Abdual Carter my mock draft. 2332 01:53:55,400 --> 01:53:57,960 Speaker 3: I actually might bet on that. Plus it's four thousand. 2333 01:53:58,439 --> 01:54:02,439 Speaker 1: Wow, that's the plast too. If you look at the Browns, 2334 01:54:02,520 --> 01:54:05,360 Speaker 1: the Giants, these teams that need a quarterback, is it 2335 01:54:05,520 --> 01:54:09,160 Speaker 1: better to draft Shoulder right now or is it better 2336 01:54:09,240 --> 01:54:12,479 Speaker 1: to just go at it next year with Arch Manning 2337 01:54:12,600 --> 01:54:15,000 Speaker 1: or somebody else? Like, I know you want to get 2338 01:54:15,040 --> 01:54:17,840 Speaker 1: good right here right now, but it might be better 2339 01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:19,000 Speaker 1: going with. 2340 01:54:19,040 --> 01:54:21,679 Speaker 3: The which team? Which team again? 2341 01:54:22,280 --> 01:54:25,120 Speaker 1: Either of those quarterback needed teams, Browns, Giants, Well, the 2342 01:54:25,200 --> 01:54:26,920 Speaker 1: Giant Awards probably going one. 2343 01:54:27,000 --> 01:54:29,920 Speaker 2: The Giants are interesting this year. Their win total, I 2344 01:54:29,960 --> 01:54:33,360 Speaker 2: think this is five and a half right now. They're 2345 01:54:33,440 --> 01:54:35,960 Speaker 2: one in eight in one score games last season. If 2346 01:54:36,040 --> 01:54:39,680 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson's just average, they have a tough schedule, they're 2347 01:54:39,760 --> 01:54:42,080 Speaker 2: gonna win seven or eight games and probably say the 2348 01:54:42,120 --> 01:54:47,200 Speaker 2: coach's job. But the Browns just I don't, I don't, 2349 01:54:48,160 --> 01:54:50,640 Speaker 2: I mean, can't you pick it? Really that that's that's 2350 01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:51,960 Speaker 2: our option right now. And there's no it's not like 2351 01:54:52,000 --> 01:54:55,400 Speaker 2: there's a frigent lingering. The one wild card all of 2352 01:54:55,480 --> 01:55:01,080 Speaker 2: this is Cousins, because Cousins right now, if the Falcons 2353 01:55:01,120 --> 01:55:04,480 Speaker 2: want to trade him, that would help alleviate some of 2354 01:55:04,520 --> 01:55:05,840 Speaker 2: these concerns for some of these teams. 2355 01:55:06,840 --> 01:55:10,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, it's kind of like this the draft for 2356 01:55:10,640 --> 01:55:14,280 Speaker 1: the Browns. Let's put it this way. Maybe it's you've 2357 01:55:14,320 --> 01:55:18,240 Speaker 1: got the ball, it's fourth and thirteen, you know what 2358 01:55:18,280 --> 01:55:20,240 Speaker 1: I mean. But you're backed up a little bit, so 2359 01:55:20,320 --> 01:55:22,160 Speaker 1: you could gamble. You could go for that first down, 2360 01:55:22,280 --> 01:55:24,960 Speaker 1: or you could punt. You could go for the first down. 2361 01:55:25,080 --> 01:55:28,160 Speaker 1: Now that would be the twenty five draft, or you 2362 01:55:28,240 --> 01:55:31,400 Speaker 1: could punt and maybe that sets yourself up better and 2363 01:55:31,520 --> 01:55:34,400 Speaker 1: that would be the twenty sixth draft. Right, that's the 2364 01:55:34,840 --> 01:55:36,600 Speaker 1: decision that these teams are going to be faced with. 2365 01:55:37,040 --> 01:55:38,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it starts with, what do you think of 2366 01:55:38,520 --> 01:55:42,000 Speaker 1: Shoulder in the NFL? You think he's gonna home, He's 2367 01:55:42,000 --> 01:55:43,320 Speaker 1: gonna be a franchise quarterback. 2368 01:55:43,920 --> 01:55:46,440 Speaker 2: I don't want to ruin the break time here. I 2369 01:55:46,800 --> 01:55:49,640 Speaker 2: think he would play well in the Brown system. I 2370 01:55:49,840 --> 01:55:53,360 Speaker 2: just don't know if he's going to be ELFL quarterback. 2371 01:55:53,720 --> 01:55:56,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and when you're taking him number two overall, you 2372 01:55:57,000 --> 01:55:57,600 Speaker 1: need him to be. 2373 01:55:58,240 --> 01:55:58,280 Speaker 5: So. 2374 01:55:58,600 --> 01:56:01,200 Speaker 2: I also don't think that this second round Jaln Milroe 2375 01:56:01,320 --> 01:56:02,360 Speaker 2: is your answer either, So. 2376 01:56:02,520 --> 01:56:03,040 Speaker 4: I don't need it. 2377 01:56:03,440 --> 01:56:06,920 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, yeah, maybe twenty six is the answer.
