The Phillies have made their decision. They 50 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: have decided to ex communicate outfielder Nick Costeanos. He's out. 51 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: The team is going to eat twenty million dollars. They're 52 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: gonna get some barbecue sauce, some honey mustard, and they're 53 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: gonna cook that up and then eat that twenty million 54 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: dollars to get rid of them. Isn't that great? You 55 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: imagine that you're so annoying at your job that the 56 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,279 Speaker 1: company's gonna pay you twenty million. 57 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: Dollars to go away. 58 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:57,119 Speaker 1: Now. Costeanos was in the final year of a five year, 59 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars contract and the Phillies kicking him 60 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: to The Curby Report emerged following his ejection from the Phillies. 61 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: You knew that was happening when they said don't show 62 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: up to work. That Castianos ostracized himself from the rest 63 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: of the team. A very detailed report behind a paywall, 64 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: The Old Gray Lady says that many teammates had come 65 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 1: to resent Castianos for his attitude. More than a dozen. 66 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: More than a dozen Phillies players, staff members, and officials 67 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 1: all agreed to talk to the athletic on what condition 68 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,239 Speaker 1: you want to take a guess, ding ding ding ding ding, Yes, 69 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: the condition that their names would not be used. Yeah, anonymity, baby. 70 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: So the report illustrated that the player Castianos was a 71 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: brash schmuck who put himself ahead of the team. Then 72 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: they gave some examples. There was an instance that was 73 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: ref in this story of Castianos playing music. 74 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 2: This is gonna really offend you. I hope you're not 75 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: offended by his pace. 76 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: He played music from his own speaker, his own speaker 77 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: after having a good game, but the Phillies lost, And 78 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: that was used as a really sad example. What that's terrible. 79 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: That is selfish, horrific. But wait, there's more. Now. The 80 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:30,919 Speaker 1: flashpoint occurred in a game against the Marlins last summer, 81 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: Castianos was taken out of the game a defensive substitution 82 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: in the eighth inning, and he decided, Hey, I'm not 83 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: gonna play anymore, So I'm gonna go grab in the clubhouse. 84 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna grab a Presidente beer and I'm going to 85 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: open it up and I'm gonna bring it into the 86 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: dugout and then I'm going to berate the manager, Rob 87 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: Thompson and the other coaches and give them the business 88 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: in front of the entire team. Now that appears they 89 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: did not appreciate that he was suspended for that, but 90 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: that is being used against him here as he was 91 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: fired from his job in Philadelphia. So good jumping off point. 92 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: Let us discuss question. How did this story about Nick 93 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: Castianos being the Philly problem child play with you? So 94 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: I've got Church Lady, Voodoo and Old Glory, and we'll 95 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: put all of these things together and we're gonna go one, two, three, 96 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: but we always start. 97 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 2: With number wa. 98 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: Number, all right. So the Nick Castianos reporting is a 99 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: classic hit piece. I mean, it was just so obvious. 100 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: And the reason you do this is because a low 101 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: information fans love it. They they have no critical thinking. 102 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: They believe everything. They're fed like Pavlov's dogs. 103 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 2: So you go. 104 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: Now, I don't know Nick Costianos. I don't know the 105 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: guy all right, and he could be the greatest schmuck 106 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: in the world. But I know a hit piece when 107 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: I see a hit piece, and this was a hit piece, Okay, classic. 108 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: The Phillies are eating twenty million dollars to flush this 109 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: guy down the toilet, and suddenly, right on Q the 110 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: anonymous team sources pop up. Line them up, baby, They 111 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: come crawling out of the woodwork to tell the athletic 112 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: what a locker room cancer this guy was. And this 113 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: happens all the time in these situations, right, it's you're 114 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: an old old head, as the kids say. Remember there 115 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: was a classic character years ago on Saturday Night Live, 116 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: the church lady. Well, isn't that convenient? Isn't that conn 117 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: It smells like a rat. This has mister editor vibes 118 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: from the Phillies PR department written all over it, as 119 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: I understand it, Normally, these things are encouraged, if not mandated, 120 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: from the PR people. They had to roast the player, 121 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: Nick Castianos. They had roast him like a pig at 122 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: a traditional Hawaiian luau just to win the court of 123 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: public opinion, because there were groups of fans that actually 124 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: liked Castianos. They thought that his act was good. So 125 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: this looks like an inside job, right, you stiff around. 126 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: It just smells like an inside job. You're telling me 127 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: that it's all about the agenda. The reporter here, you 128 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: you couldn't find twelve other guys to say what a 129 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: great teammate he was. That not you couldn't find those people. 130 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: As far as the beer drinking stuff. Again, it's all 131 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: about perspective, right, And the Red Sox were eating fried 132 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: chicken and beer and went on playoff. 133 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 2: Runs back in the day. And if this was. 134 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: The nineteen ninety three fills, right, oh my god, that's 135 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: thirty almost thirty five years ago. But the Phils and 136 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: if they're bringing Presidente Beers into the dugout, you know, 137 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: you're like, oh man, that's so cool, dude, John Kruck 138 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: and Lennydistra and those guys. Oh man. Now, of course, 139 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: because the way it's being presented that the player is 140 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: a selfish brat because he played music after a loss, 141 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: and the whole thing. You know, again, it's about presentation. 142 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: Use some critical thinking, give me a break. And again, 143 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: the guy, I'm not saying the guy's you know, saint. 144 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: He's probably a knucklehead. And as he said, he takes 145 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: everything personally and all that. But I will garrion effin 146 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: to you. If Nick Castianos was hitting three hundred with 147 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,599 Speaker 1: forty home runs a year and driving in on a 148 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: hundred runs a game and hitting forty five doubles a year, 149 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: he would be called a rare competitor, a rare competitor, 150 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: and the life of the party, the soul of the team. However, 151 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 1: he's not. He's an average ballplayer who's being paid twenty 152 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: million dollars a year and has turned into a pumpkin 153 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: in the playoffs as a Philly I think he's hitting 154 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: like two a little over two hundred in the playoffs 155 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: and the power numbers aren't good and all that stuff. 156 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: That is the real crime here. That is the real crime. Again. 157 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 1: You can be the biggest a hole in the world 158 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: as long as you produce, and when that stops. 159 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 2: It's just how it works. 160 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: We all know that when it's it, it goes with 161 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: any business. I've been in the radio business my entire 162 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: doll life. We've had some people that have passed through 163 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: this building that were mourning, people who were complete. I 164 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: can't I want to curse. I can't say what they were. 165 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: Bad people, bad dudes. But they got ratings. They made 166 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: money for the company, so they kept the moment the 167 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: ratings went down, the moment of the affiliates weren't happy, they 168 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: give them the boot. 169 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 2: Get out of here, go away, you're done with you. 170 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: That's what happens. It happens in any business. But in baseball, 171 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: if you're mid you're mad. You're a prima donna. If 172 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: you're if you're elite, you're just a character. Oh he's 173 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: such a character. Oh he likes to drink beer in 174 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: the dugout, he plays it out in music. He's an individual. Yeah. 175 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: They're only killing him now because the production dried up, 176 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: and so they had to make it clear that this 177 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: is we're paying twenty million dollars to this guy to 178 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: go away, and he sucks, and so this is what 179 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: he's done, and get out here all right now, turning 180 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: the page to what's next for the player that just 181 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: got absolutely given the guillotine by a Philly scribe. I'm 182 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: sure that was not hand delivered by the Philadelphia Phillies 183 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: pr people. Anyway, question, you are the unofficial career counselor 184 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: congratulations you're the career counselor what is your advice to 185 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: Nick Castianos after he was just excommunicated from the Philadelphia Phillies. 186 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 1: So what is your advice? Now? 187 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: I'm really good at giving out advice. 188 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: I sit here at the bully pulpit and give out 189 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: advice for four hours a night, five days a week, 190 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 1: and an hour a day on the weekends on the 191 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: Fifth Hour podcast. But as a baseball refugee, which is 192 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 1: what this guy is, obviously, he's at a crossroads. He's 193 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: at the old fork in the road. All that to 194 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: the right. If you look off to the right, the sign. 195 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't know if you can see it, because there's 196 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 1: some some fog. But if you look, is that fog 197 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: or is that steam from hell? But if you look, 198 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: it says right there at the sign, it's highway. Voodoo 199 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: Bugaloo is the highway. 200 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 2: And that's off to the right. 201 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: Now if you if you look the other way, if 202 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: you look the other way, that's that's the waiting Highway. 203 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: And it's like for the waiting game. So the Phillies 204 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: plausibly tried to trade this guy Castilianos all off season. 205 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: Nobody wanted because he's got the cooties, and the cooties 206 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 1: are he's making a lot of money. He's a defensive liability, 207 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: and he's not hitting as much as he did in 208 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: the past, and he's like a glorified d at this point. 209 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: He treats the glove and the baseball like it's a 210 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: hot potato. It's not good. So my advice, as the 211 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: unofficial career counselor unofficial career counselor through the magic the 212 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: powers of talk radio, the advice here is to sit 213 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: in your jacuzzi and drink your Presidente beer and just 214 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: wait through the first three. 215 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 2: Weeks of spring training. 216 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: Games are going to begin. In a couple of weeks, 217 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: you wait for the spring training games to begin, and 218 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: then somewhere, whether it's in Florida or Arizona, a outfielder, 219 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: a designated hitter will have the HGW hammy go whammy. 220 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: And when the hammy go whammy, the phone starts a 221 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: ring and the text messages start coming in. 222 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 2: Now, if you cannot wait, if you don't. 223 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: Want to play the waiting game, you could plausibly convince 224 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: a team like the Podres of the Blue Jays. 225 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 2: To take a flyer on you. Now, if you're really, really. 226 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: Impatient, then you can go play for a pretender like 227 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: the White Sox or some other rotten team like the 228 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: Nationals and go knock yourself out. It's a soft landing spot, 229 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: it's a pillow fort, and you'd go there for half 230 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: the season and then and they'd flip you at the deadline. 231 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: And of course, in order for that to happen, try 232 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: not to bat one thirty six heading into the trade 233 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: deadline because that would be problematic. Otherwise you're not a 234 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: trade ship. You're just a hazardous waste spill and nobody 235 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: wants that. All right, final point, We now go to 236 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: a viral story from the Bay Area. It kind of 237 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: evolves gambling. Some random person on the TikTok went viral 238 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: after traveling to the Bay Area and what appears to 239 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: be loitering around outside Levi's Stadium with a high powered microphone. Now, 240 00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: they were not there for the Super Bowl. This was 241 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: the lead up to the Super Bowl, and they were 242 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: out there pretty much all afternoon for Charlie Pooh's Super 243 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: Bowl anthem rehearsal. 244 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 2: And so, yeah, you probably know where this is going, 245 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 2: you do, okay? 246 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, So this this dude was out there and he 247 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: had the high powered microphone. He's waiting for the anthem rehearsal. 248 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: He of course timed it, and that enabled him to 249 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: win a bet. He timed the the anthem rehearsal for 250 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: Charlie Poot and it was under, and of course people 251 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: have ripping him. Oh, that's insider trading. You can't do that. 252 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: What are you doing? And suppose it from what I read, 253 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: he turned one hundred dollars bet on the prediction market 254 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: into a thousand. 255 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 2: Dollars I don't even know if that's possible. 256 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: I didn't look at it. I don't pay much attention 257 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: to the anthem bet, but that's what I read. Of Course, 258 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: I would argue that if you knew that well that 259 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: the time was going to be under, why would you 260 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: only bet one hunred dollars? Why wouldn't you been more? 261 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: I question, did this. 262 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: Random TikTok guy cross the line with insider trading by 263 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: timing out the national anthem rehearsals before Super Bowl sixty 264 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: for betting purposes. 265 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: All right, So I don't even know. 266 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: This is a question like I saw something stop insider trading. 267 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: We're not talking about the stock exchange here. It's he 268 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: wasn't in the stadium. He was outside the stadium. It's 269 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: a football game with fireworks and flyovers. He's timed out. 270 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: He brought a stop watching, a big microphone thing of 271 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: a jig and all that, and it's not insider trading 272 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: for which he was outside. So I guess it was 273 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: outsider trading. But he used the rehearsal to beat the prop. 274 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: And whose fault is that? If the curtain is open 275 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: and you can see how they do the magic trick, 276 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: don't blame the audience for watching. It's not criminal, it's capitalism. 277 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: As you know, it's smart when this is not the 278 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: first time this has happened. This has happened many times 279 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: over the years, and the sports books hate it because 280 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: it exposes the loophole and these anthem props. It's like 281 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: carnival games. It's a three card monty wrapped in old glory. 282 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: Wrap yourself in old glory. You leave rehearsal wyd open. 283 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: Because even if it's a dome stadium, most super Bowls 284 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: are played in domes. This was an outdoor stadium. It's 285 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: somebody in there cleaning something or adjusting something, and they 286 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: are able to hear the anthem and they can time 287 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: it and all that stuff. So they exposes the carnival 288 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: game that is the anthem, and you leave the rehearsal 289 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: wide open and someone's going to time it like it's 290 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: the Olympic Trials, and this person did. And of course 291 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 1: you can't keep anything quiet. You have to do it 292 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: for clout, so you have to post about it. It's 293 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: next level dedication for clicks. Yes, it's why they put 294 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: caps on how much you can bet on the game sites. 295 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: I don't know about the I'm not really two up 296 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: on the prediction market. I haven't gotten into that much. 297 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: But it's they put limits on it and they protect themselves. 298 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 1: It's classified information and it is obviously different. The ecosystem 299 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 1: is different on the prediction market. If this is though 300 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: a crime, like, shouldn't you have to lock up everyone 301 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: that does the weather? Don't they check the radar before 302 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: they give you the weather. Let's shoot, you can't check 303 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: the radar. You checked the radar that you should just 304 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: know the weather what's wrong with you? Oh my god, 305 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: there you go.
