1 00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Welcome to Sharper Square, presented by hard Rock Bet. We 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: are part of the Volume podcast network. This is the 3 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,799 Speaker 1: show that makes the squares sharper and makes the wise 4 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: guys pay attention, no matter what time of year it is. 5 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 1: I am Chad Millman. I'm joined as always by my BFF, 6 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: my companion, my Confadre, my co host, Professional Better, Simon Hunter. Hello, 7 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: So I am in Chad. 8 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 2: How are we doing? 9 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: Dude? Wow? 10 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 3: Wow? 11 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: Wow? What an incredible super Bowl. Truly incredible super Bowl. 12 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: People are complaining that it was boring, they didn't like it. Whatever. 13 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: For us, I think the second week in row between 14 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: the second football week in a row, between the AFC 15 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: title game that was a slog, but we were on 16 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: the right side, and this game that was a slog, 17 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: but we were on the right side. We've seen the 18 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 1: most beautiful football we've seen in decades. We kind of 19 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 1: nailed it right from the beginning. We love Seattle from 20 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: the beginning. We loved Seattle alts from the beginning. We 21 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: loved props tied to the Seattle narrative of dominating and 22 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: New England having to come back. Our guests Evan Abrams 23 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: and Brandon Anderson nailed it. Brandon Anderson had the defensive 24 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: special team touchdown moneyline parlay that cashed. We're going to 25 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: go through all of it. All the categories were final picks. 26 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: We have a contest winner. Thousands and thousands of contestants 27 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: signed up. We had one man standing who won it 28 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: with a five and zero record end the season. He's 29 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: going to come on the show a little bit later 30 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: before we get to all of it. Simon, I feel 31 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: like you rarely go online and clap back, but you 32 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: did on Sunday. 33 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. I'll never, I'll never. I never try to go 34 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 2: with fans just because I get it. We're aal irrational 35 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: and emotional. But my god, were the Patriots fans loud 36 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: and obnoxious? And I will admit we have Patriots fans 37 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,839 Speaker 2: that came to our live shows up and Hoboken. All 38 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 2: class acts, very funny guys, great personales. I mean, Philadelphia, Boston. 39 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 2: Very people say salt of the earth, I say scumbags 40 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: of the earth. I mean, just incredibly similar in many anyways, 41 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: and usually again most teams, any normal people will have 42 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: self doubt. These Patriots fans were so loud and so confident. 43 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: Pretty chirpy. 44 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: I immediately. Usually I won't call my shot. It was 45 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 2: a build up of Saturday night when I'm out at 46 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: the books and I have people coming up to Mets 47 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 2: fans running their mouths and then waking up the messages 48 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: that morning. Yeah, I got on social media. I just said, 49 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 2: these guys are about to get blown out their frauds, 50 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: and Chad knows people in media will never put themselves 51 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: out on those type of you know, sticks, because it's 52 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 2: a bad look when it goes the other way. If 53 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 2: the Patriots would have blown them out by twenty but 54 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: a look like an idiot. I knew there was no world, 55 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: no world that would happen. That's why I was so 56 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 2: confident putting it out there, because it's in my mind 57 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: if the Patriots had a chance and maybe covering in 58 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: no world did I see them blow out the Seahawks, 59 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: And like you said, the game couldn't have gone more 60 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: to a tea of what we predicted. So obviously got 61 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: very lucky on that. And yeah, I had a couple 62 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: of drinks, was feeling pretty good after winning a ton 63 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 2: of money, and yeah, hopped on social media and throw 64 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 2: a video out there trolling these Patriots fans and I 65 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 2: meant every word I said of it. So I woke 66 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: me next morning, rewatch it. I go, Nope, not deleting it, 67 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: No regrets, lead it up. Meant every word I said 68 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: of it. But yeah, really, like you said, really fun 69 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: super Bowl, and I'm excited to dive into it here. 70 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: You know, we loved that. We loved the Seahawks for 71 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: the whole two weeks, right like, I bettered immediately at 72 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: minus three and a half the second it opened. And 73 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: it's funny, you know our contest winner, We've got an 74 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: interview with him later in the show. Ended up not 75 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: jumping on the side, partially because well, I don't want 76 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: to spoil it, because I wanted people to listen to 77 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: the interview. But I was a little I was a 78 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: little bit concerned by Sunday morning when the line hadn't 79 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: exploded to five, five and a half even to six 80 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: as I thought it should, because the Seahawks were just 81 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: so much better. So I was a little anxious about it. 82 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: And I was actually on the road for the game. 83 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: I was doing some book reporting, and I was with 84 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 1: someone who's like a market maker on the prediction exchanges 85 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: for the game, and I was with this person during 86 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: the game, and we were watching the pregame show and 87 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: they had on I think it was Kyle Shanahan. I 88 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: think it was Fred Warner, and then Tony Dungee and 89 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:18,239 Speaker 1: Rodney Harrison, and I think Fred Warner and Rodney Harrison 90 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: went with the Patriots, and I forgot who Tony Dungee did. 91 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: But Kyle Shanahan just dropped a little hint. I don't 92 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: know if you saw this or not. I never watched 93 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: the pregame shows, and I could give a shit with 94 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: the people picking it. Say, Kyle Shanahan had a really 95 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: interesting He's like, I think Seattle could blow this team out. 96 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: And then he was the only one who predicted the 97 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: Seahawks by margin. It was twenty four to seventeen. And 98 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: if I wanted anybody to sort of give me your 99 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 1: rational happiness in that moment, it was Kyle Shanahan, who 100 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: you know, I adore as a coach. And then it 101 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 1: was fucking great. It was just it was awesome. We're 102 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: going to get into it. We're totally going to get 103 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: into it. Don't forget. Let's see we can you can 104 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: get the shows, little post Super Bowl fog brain here, 105 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: you can get the shows at Sharper Square on YouTube 106 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: subscribing like the video where we're at it also downlods, 107 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: some Spotify Apple pods where you get your pods. Here's 108 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: some roundups. We finished the contest portion of the season 109 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: with twenty four points, so that was the final I 110 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: think it was nine weeks including the playoffs. That was 111 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: good enough simon for three hundred and seventy fifth place. 112 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: To put it in context, nearly five thousand people signed 113 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: up for the contest, which is miraculous in and of 114 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: itself since it was a late in the season addition 115 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 1: to our program, So that three hundred and seventy five 116 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: was basically good enough for top eight percent. I feel 117 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: okay with that. Like we had a tough run there 118 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. You know, we cratered in the conference 119 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:05,799 Speaker 1: final weekend and in the round weekend. So I feel 120 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: okay coming in where we did, considering how bad things 121 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: turned there for a minute. 122 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, basically did nothing. You just saw that record there 123 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 2: basically is five hundred since the cut that started. So yeah, 124 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: dug ourselves into a pretty horrible hole and crawled out. 125 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 2: And Yeah, luckily two biggest bets of the playoffs happened 126 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 2: to be in the conference championship in the Super Bowl, 127 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, it got kind of lucky that it worked 128 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: out that way. 129 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: Our contest picks were Seattle ninus four and a half cashed, 130 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: the under forty five and a half cash Formandre Stevenson 131 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: under fifty three and a half rushing yards cash, Drake 132 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: may Over nineteen and a half completions that cashed, the 133 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: one that lost. We had the Pats plus three and 134 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: a half in the first half, so we finished four 135 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: and one in the Super Bowl. Our total contest record 136 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty five from the beginning of the season 137 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: five picks every week through the playoffs, sixty and fifty 138 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: fifty five percent. Basically, you tell me, as professional better 139 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: you can go fifty five percent in the season. You're 140 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: taking that every time. 141 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, but I would say we're both disappointed that 142 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 2: that the Tennessee Tennessee Titans dictated our season. Yeah, we 143 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: were in a contest for a lot of money, and 144 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 2: I told Chad, if we had just gone the other 145 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 2: way and the Titans, you'd both be sitting here with 146 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 2: half a million dollars. So it's pretty sickening. We had 147 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 2: a really good year. But that's how close to margins are. 148 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 2: If you just lock in on the wrong team, you 149 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: can't get it right. You crush yourself. And yeah, great year, 150 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: But I am one of those people. I don't remember 151 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 2: my wins. I remember every loss. And that's what's gonna 152 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 2: hurt me in this offseason. I'm gonna be sitting there. 153 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 2: It's gonna be I do know, May second, eleven o'clock 154 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 2: at night and on like the damn Tennessee Titans, because 155 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: well it's a ton of money. 156 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: It's funny you mentioned that, because we're gonna we're gonna 157 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: get into that. And by every account I should have 158 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: been freaking thrilled with the Super Bowl. But all that's 159 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: in my head is the two things that kept it 160 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: from being monster. Monster Sunday our name bets Chad's choice 161 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: was Seattle altline minus six and a half that one 162 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: Simon says was the first quarter under eight and a half, 163 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: barely a sweat. There was like a second where it 164 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: could have been a sweat when when the Patriots played 165 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: at their best and then it, you know, went exactly 166 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: our way. 167 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 2: And a couple of people ask about that. Why I 168 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 2: blindly bet that every year and shout out to our guy, 169 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 2: Evan Adram sent me the numbers since the year two 170 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 2: thousand in the Super Bowl first quarter under is now 171 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: eighteen seven and two. So, like I said, every year, people, 172 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 2: you can betside, you can do all this hard work. 173 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 2: Like I said that Tuesday show, put all your money 174 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 2: into this bet every year because every year it's a winner. 175 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 2: These you saw right the team's come out flat, it 176 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 2: doesn't matter. I mean my favorite stat ever, Tom Brady, 177 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: the goat, what was he playing an eleven Super Bowls? 178 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 2: He has three total points in the first quarter in 179 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 2: those eleven Super Bowls. So now so Josh McDaniels, Yeah, 180 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 2: that's here's a Josh McDaniel's stat. But just to remember 181 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: in the future, people, eighteen seven and two first quarter 182 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 2: unders in the Super Bowl since year two thousand. It's 183 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: a great bet every year. 184 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: Brass Balls was New England's first drive being a punt. 185 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: So we cashed on all these you just mentioned. Evan. 186 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: I want to call out too, particularly prescient clips from 187 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: when Evan came on the show two weeks ago. 188 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 4: Obviously, everywhere you look you hear Patriots strength to schedule. 189 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 4: I think Seahawks strength to schedule is also just as 190 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 4: important in this game. Only eleven of one hundred and 191 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 4: twenty Super Bowl teams had a harder strength of schedule 192 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 4: than the Seahawks. Those eleven teams win eight and three 193 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 4: in the Super Bowl, So I also kind. 194 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 2: Of blame I like that stat that's a good step. 195 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: I love that. 196 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 4: If you look at the single postseason, I believe Darnold 197 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 4: has the fourth highest passer rating of any quarterback all time. 198 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 4: You look on the other side, Drake may one hundred 199 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 4: and thirteen passer rating during the regular season down to 200 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 4: eighty four in the playoffs. I don't really care why 201 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 4: that's happened, but I also think that's baked into why 202 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 4: the line maybe isn't three and it's even four and 203 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 4: a half and five. In getting juiced up at the moment, 204 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 4: they've won nine straight, they've covered four straight. Only four 205 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 4: other teams have even done that nine straight in four straight, 206 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 4: nine straight wins, four straight covers. Entering a Super Bowl 207 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 4: twenty sixteen seventeen Patriots barely survive ors the Falcons, but 208 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 4: won the game and covered two thousand. Ravens blew out 209 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 4: the Giants nineteen eighty six Giants blew out the Broncos, 210 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 4: seventy one Cowboys blew out the Dolphins. So those teams 211 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 4: nine straight wins, four straight covers, four and oh straight 212 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 4: up four and oh against the spread in the Super Bowl. 213 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 4: If you think Seattle's dominant, that's the stat you want 214 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 4: to hear. Like they're just going to roll away with 215 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 4: this one. 216 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:56,479 Speaker 1: That's basically what happened, right, I mean, it was just glorious. 217 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: So nice job, Evan, nice job, Brandon, nice job, Simon 218 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: nice John, nice job, Chad. One online hater accused you 219 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: of wearing it to pay last week because of all 220 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: of our collective flaws, I feel like what you do 221 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: have is an incredible nest of hair. So congrats on 222 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: your YouTube pay that you were able to afford after 223 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 1: winning so much money on the Seattle Seahawks. 224 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. I definitely watched that clip. It just I immediately 225 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 2: missed that warmth of that hair. I'm not gonna lie cheat, 226 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 2: My ears are so cold. But yeah, I Chad knows. 227 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,439 Speaker 2: I'm crazy, superstitious. So if I win my biggest bet 228 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 2: of the year on the Broncos, there's no chance I'm 229 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: cutting my hair before the Super Bowl. I gotta let 230 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 2: a ride. But yeah, as soon as I woke up 231 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 2: Monday morning, I went and got the haircut that the 232 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 2: hair was it was too much, It got gotten too wild. 233 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 2: But yeah, this this game, there's so many avenues to go. 234 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 2: I did see the cal Shanan clip you saw, just 235 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 2: because I think cow Hurt put a video out talking 236 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 2: about because I think Colin took the Patriots, and he 237 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 2: basically just saying how much regret he had before the 238 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 2: game had kicked off. Because when you hear a guy 239 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 2: like Kyle say that, a coach will never say a 240 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 2: team has a potential getting blown out right there in 241 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 2: the lea. 242 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: That's what's sort of that's what shocked me, Like you 243 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: never hear a coach use the term blowout. That was 244 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: really really, I mean, these pregame shows are fluff, right, 245 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: we talk about it all the time, you know where 246 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: the show the pregame show with the stuff, not the fluff. 247 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: That was the most interesting thing I've heard in the 248 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: pregame show in decades. 249 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 2: And it's funny because I told Chat, I've been complaining 250 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 2: to Chat about how the college football for the National 251 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 2: Championship game they had on you know, Nick Saban, the 252 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 2: head coach of Notre Dame, Like they had on some 253 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: really brilliant minds and we've been lacking that in my 254 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 2: opinion on football, right, Like not to hate on these 255 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 2: talk shows you're you're putting on these dudes or in 256 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 2: their seventies, we haven't played the NFL and forty years 257 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 2: and they're nonsensical. They literally give you nothing to gain 258 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 2: from a guy like Kyle or Sean McVay. Well, anytime 259 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 2: you hear them speak, you need to listen, like they 260 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: are the smartest minds in this sport. And yeah, Kyle 261 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 2: had a great line as well that he had. Who 262 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 2: is he to say anything about about the Seawks. He 263 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 2: hasn't scored a touchdown on them in the last two 264 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 2: times they played, which I love that line where it's 265 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 2: like he can be that humble where he knows he's 266 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 2: one of the best minds of all football. He couldn't 267 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: he can't score on them right now, like he is 268 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 2: in full tilt mode. So yeah, going into this game again, 269 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: I thought the Seas had a chance to blow them out. 270 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 2: I really did base it on. I thought May would struggle. 271 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 2: To me, we got luck here because Sam Darnold also struggled. 272 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was, dude, every single time he dropped back 273 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: when it was still close, you know, in the first half, 274 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: let's say, especially those first drives, because the way the 275 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: Patriots were playing defense, they were jumping every route. I 276 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: just thought, oh my god, this is going to be 277 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: a recipe for some kind of pick six for the 278 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: first score. That's what it looked like to me. I 279 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: don't know like you saw it the same way, but 280 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: it was scary to me. 281 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 2: You can tell it right away when Sam's on or off, 282 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 2: and immediately could tell he was just off because all 283 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 2: his throws were behind or leading. Nothing was on target 284 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 2: the entire game, in my opinion, like the entire game, 285 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 2: he didn't have any I mean, Drake may who played terrible, 286 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: he had the best throws of the game, no. 287 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: Doubt, like Mac Collins for the touchdown. 288 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 2: And I told you going to this game, I knew, Beth. 289 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: Both head coaches mentalities were the quarterback that's going to 290 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 2: dictate who's going to win this game because one of 291 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 2: them is going to slip up and make a mistake 292 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 2: and a thrown over. Sam never was really put in 293 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 2: the position for that, right. They had a couple at 294 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 2: the very beginning, Kulback let him kind of sling it. 295 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 2: Eventually they just turned right to the run right, and 296 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 2: even when they got down the red zone, there was 297 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 2: a couple of times where they needed like a thirty 298 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 2: and seven to pick up a first down. Sam was 299 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 2: taking the third and four throw, so like he was 300 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 2: taking the check down to get on fourth and be 301 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 2: on a fourth and three or fourth and two because 302 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 2: they were gonna settle for the three. Just never put 303 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 2: the ball on turnover. And you know, Christian Zalez did 304 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: have a chance at a pick in the end zone 305 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 2: right before half that should have been a walking touchdown. 306 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: Jason and beat him easy on the route. The ball 307 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 2: was terribly late. Yeah, behind was almost a pick. So 308 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 2: it's like Sam on his worst game still threw for 309 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: two orty yards no turnovers. On the flip side, Drake 310 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 2: May showed his inexperience. Where we talked about coming into this, 311 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 2: that's what I could beating home, was like, I get 312 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: a probably better is Their whole point was, I can't 313 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 2: believe it a bet on Sam Darnold was a four 314 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 2: point favorite in the Super Bowl, and my whole view 315 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: was that I can't believe you're taking Drake May under 316 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 2: a seven point dog against the number one defense. You've 317 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 2: seen him struggle now three straight weeks against defenses. This 318 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: is gonna be the best defense he's faced. And it 319 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 2: proved that. I mean, the way people are talking about 320 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 2: the Seahawks now ridiculous like bears. They're not even last 321 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 2: year's Eagles team. I honestly think was more impressive because 322 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 2: they did against Mahomes and that Chiefs team. Like this 323 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 2: Drake May, he looked totally out of it from the 324 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 2: get go, like not like happy feet, bath rows, late throws. 325 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 2: We talked about that shorter injury. I knew as soon 326 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: as the game ended something would come out that he 327 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,959 Speaker 2: was shot up. I knew right away as soon as 328 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 2: he missed that week of practice. It's like they're gonna 329 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 2: baby and try to keep it cool. He's obviously got 330 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 2: a big injury. And then you saw, you know, Will Campbell, 331 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 2: who's been dragged through the mud, you know, fourteen pressures 332 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 2: nfl wrecord in the Super Bowl. Basically he's playing on 333 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,479 Speaker 2: apparently a torn a sailor mcl like he's gonna get 334 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 2: surgery or something like that with his knee. Don't I 335 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,360 Speaker 2: don't know the exact injury, but you knew this guy 336 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 2: whose whole draft thing coming out was you have short arms, 337 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 2: but he is so strong he's impossible to push through 338 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 2: every play that he would just get bull rushed. He 339 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,040 Speaker 2: could not put any weight on that one leg. So 340 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 2: between the May injury, the Campbell injury, like everything about that, 341 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 2: I just I think we were both in sync of 342 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 2: We just couldn't find a reason to back to the 343 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,719 Speaker 2: Patriots where me and Chad we want to bet the dogs. 344 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 2: We talk all the time that should always be alarmed 345 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 2: to people were so heavy into a favorite when we're 346 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 2: such heavy dog betters, especially that trend we gave out right, 347 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: it was like ten to one the last eleven Super 348 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: Bowls where the spread was above four and a half. Yep, 349 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 2: And not that we thought it was due to go 350 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 2: the other way, but it was just like, well, this 351 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 2: is I talked about it. I think I had gone 352 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 2: the other way. The dog had gotten too much value 353 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: that we were getting two free points on the favor 354 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 2: That's why me and Chad both took the Seahawks team 355 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 2: minus six and a half. Right, That's where the value 356 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 2: to us was. Where this line just felt way off 357 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 2: and you know, when Sunday morning came, I really did 358 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 2: load up on the Seahucks because I just kept and 359 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,239 Speaker 2: the more I thought about it, I looked into it, 360 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 2: It's like, this is such a bad matchups, this Statred's team. 361 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 2: But I'm not gonna lie. I really did think there 362 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: was a chance there for them to come back because 363 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 2: of all those field goals, Like it was never more 364 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 2: than a two point score game, right, and you saw 365 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 2: Drake May the arm talent, he can strike fast. But 366 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 2: you know, we talk of the time the game changer. 367 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 2: The thing that decides these games with the quarterbacks are 368 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,239 Speaker 2: the turnovers and Drake May two picks one fumble. You know, 369 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 2: it's just they were in an impossible snare. And at the 370 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 2: end of the day, I don't know about you, but 371 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 2: I am one of the people that I do blame 372 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 2: Vrabel and Josh McDaniels. I think they totally got out coached. 373 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 2: Scheme wise, they failed, And I hated how Vrabel was 374 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 2: playing this game where he was playing to keep it 375 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 2: close rather than try to win, Like I get it, 376 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 2: you're not going for a fourth and one in your 377 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 2: own thirty nine because it's a nine to nothing game. 378 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 2: Or a twelve nothing game. But that that twelve nothing, 379 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 2: I don't about you watching at home, it felt like 380 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 2: that was forty to nothing. It's like you can't get 381 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,959 Speaker 2: a field goal letter go in a touchdown. So I 382 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 2: really do question Rabel the most coming out that game, 383 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,239 Speaker 2: where I hated the way he coached it. He just 384 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,439 Speaker 2: he played too soft and kept thinking Sam will make 385 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 2: the mistake. I'm gonna be able to get back in 386 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 2: this game, where I just thought the other way. The 387 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 2: Seahawks were never, never gonna let Sam don't make that mistake, 388 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: and you know that's where he messed up. 389 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: Well, that was the flip side of why we loved 390 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 1: Seattle so much. We truly believed that what we had 391 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: seen over the previous three or four weeks and the 392 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: way Seattle was calling the games, they really weren't going 393 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: to let him be in a position to screw it up. 394 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: They had to win big against the Rams, but they 395 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: had really started to figure out how to get Sam 396 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: Donald to not be making mistakes. 397 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,479 Speaker 2: I agree with you, quarterback, your first quarterback in NFL history, 398 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 2: zero turnovers through the playoffs. 399 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: He was amazing, totally amazing. 400 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 2: He tried to make in the regular season zero in 401 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 2: the playoffs. 402 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: He tried. He tried to make some turnovers in the 403 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. 404 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 2: He really concerts like he's a real gunslinger. It's like, 405 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 2: please stop saying that. 406 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: College Christian Gonzales out of his head that game. I mean, yeah, 407 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: he was like Lester Hayes, just knock he was. 408 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 2: He was. 409 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 1: He was unreal the the And there was one play 410 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: I think it was towards the end of the first 411 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: half where the Seahawks could have gone up twelve nothing 412 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,479 Speaker 1: with a field goal, and to your point, twelve might 413 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: as well have been forty in this game, and they 414 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 1: did let Sam Darnold try to throw like a short 415 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 1: out that if he was a little bit behind on 416 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 1: that throw, that's a pick six. And so Kubiak did 417 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 1: let him stretch a little bit. For the most part, 418 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: it was, you know, give it to Kenth Walker because 419 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: they had found some kind of success where they were 420 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: able to run against this Patriots defense. He was, he 421 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: was amazing in this game. Like you, I loaded up 422 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:59,199 Speaker 1: on the Seahawks, But but I loaded up on the Seahawks, 423 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: not all at three and a half or four and 424 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: a half, which was available. I did three and a 425 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 1: half I did four and a half, I did six 426 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: and a half. I did nine and a half, I 427 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: did thirteen and a half, I did sixteen and a half. 428 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: I did twenty one and a half and twenty five 429 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: and a half. So, like my line of demarcation for 430 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: break even on all of those bets was I think ten. 431 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: If they won by ten, I was at least making 432 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,719 Speaker 1: money on those bets, and then it escalated from there. 433 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: They ended up winning twenty nine thirteen. I think it 434 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:41,239 Speaker 1: was sixteen, So I ended up getting the thirteen and 435 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: a half as well. And to your point about like 436 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:49,479 Speaker 1: what you remember, you know they were up twenty nine 437 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: to seven, they were up twenty two points. It ends 438 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,880 Speaker 1: like that if the Patriots don't get that garbage touchdown, 439 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: I'm having maybe the best weekend I've ever had, is 440 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: a better in my entire life, because well just because 441 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: like everything was compounding, right, and by the time it 442 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: got to like Seattle minus twenty one and a half 443 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: or something, I think it was like plus six hundred, right, 444 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: and so like the biggest one was Seattle minus twenty 445 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 1: five and a half at plus twelve hundred, which I 446 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna get. But then after they had that touchdown, 447 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker breaks it for a long run, They're up 448 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: thirty six thirteen, and it gets called back for holding penalty. 449 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: And it crushed me because now all of a sudden, 450 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: like what could have been a miraculous, amazing, glorious never 451 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: had a day like this in my life. I took 452 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: a side. I went all in on that side. I 453 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 1: used all of our lessons and some guy held someone 454 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: and it just cost me that extra you know, the 455 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: final two legs of that ladder, which was it's rough, 456 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie it. 457 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 2: Makes you feel better. That was like a six k 458 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 2: not six six figure swing for me because I had 459 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 2: a ton of parlays tied to the under and uh yeah, 460 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 2: the I basically I'm pretty sure I get on the 461 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 2: show and Mac Collins anytime touchdown hit, which was really lucky, 462 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: and obviously Seattle defense. Yes, I always parlay the defenses 463 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 2: that I bet on the teams with, and uh yeah, 464 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 2: that was a nice payout as well. So yeah, for me, 465 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 2: you know, between Denver and the Super Bowl, close to 466 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 2: a seven figure into the season, and between my clients 467 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,959 Speaker 2: and my group, a nice ten I mean eight figure, 468 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 2: I should say end of the season, and I'm gonna 469 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 2: get a really nice bonus, hopefully, let's see what that 470 00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 2: will be. I need golds at old time high, so 471 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 2: probably not gonna get any gold, but yeah, having fun 472 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 2: trying to figure out what I'm gonna pit out in 473 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 2: just because you know, these these are long seasons, few 474 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 2: form between great seasons, and you had to end that 475 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 2: way in the last two games, obviously, is a great feeling, 476 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 2: and especially a game like this where you know, confidence 477 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 2: can always leak, especially when you have two weeks leading 478 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 2: up to a game, and yeah, neither of us really wavered, honestly, 479 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 2: like even talking about the sharp calls and how I 480 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 2: was shocked to hear Summer professionals. The most shocking thing 481 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 2: was to watch from that show, which was Thursday to 482 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 2: Friday to Saturday to Sunday, how the money came flowing 483 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 2: in on the Patriots. And basically, if I kickoff, I 484 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 2: think it was like fifty of the bets and money 485 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 2: were on the Seahawks, and obviously forty three percent was 486 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 2: on the Patriots, which blew my mind that that many 487 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 2: people late came in on the Patriots and we're feeling 488 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 2: so confident about them and yeah, you were. You said 489 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 2: you were worried about how the line had a budget. 490 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 2: I was the other way where it's like a couple 491 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 2: of books had gone to five here in Jersey and 492 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 2: I immediately was just like, okay, money's pouring in here 493 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 2: on this Patriots team. And I still know other groups 494 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 2: like me taking positions on the Seahawks team, and now 495 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 2: the numbers moved against it as we moved up as well. 496 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 2: This is like alarm, belscuse. I told you the books 497 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 2: were stuck. They could not go to six and a half. 498 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 2: In my opinion, on the Sux, they would have shown 499 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 2: their ass. They would have shown this is potential to 500 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 2: be a blowout if they would have moved it. And uh, yeah, 501 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 2: the books are going to say they didn't do great. 502 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 2: I think that's a lot to do the predictive markets 503 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 2: and then being dinosaurs and being slow to adjust to 504 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 2: the new current market. But overall, you know, that was 505 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 2: a great I'm assuming a great super Bowl for the 506 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 2: books because you didn't get the you know, you didn't 507 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 2: get all the big touchdown guys right like Jason didn't score. 508 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 2: I know Walker heard them obviously, but uh and the 509 00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 2: total went under and he had a blowout. So yeah, 510 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 2: it's like we always said, the public does win and 511 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 2: they got smoked the regular season. They got their revenge 512 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 2: for sure here in the playoffs and especially on this 513 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 2: game with this was definitely we talked about it was. 514 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 2: It was a very public side. We knew that going 515 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 2: in and yeah, it props to us. We didn't let 516 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 2: it bang us off chat.

It was absolutely 555 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 3: my most profitable game of the entire NFL season, which 556 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: is not common. 557 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 2: Use. 558 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 3: The Super Bowls not the payload that I that I 559 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 3: wanted to be. It's always a mixed bag, right. It 560 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 3: was great. I got everything I needed, right except for 561 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 3: the two lottery tickets that I scratched, which are so 562 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 3: stupid and so easy to understand. Because I don't usually 563 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 3: love bad beat stories. I love turning the Super Bowl 564 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 3: into a game of Roulette by picking exact outcomes. So 565 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 3: I took Seattle to win by exactly twelve, and I 566 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 3: took Seattle to win by exactly twenty two, oh, very uncommon, 567 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 3: and they both paid one hundred to one. I bet 568 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 3: on both of them. And I got to experience the 569 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 3: absolute torture chamber of seeing not one of them, but 570 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 3: both of those differentials in the fourth quarter of a 571 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 3: Super Bowl blowout in which basically after each after each 572 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 3: one was established, no team had a real either possibility 573 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 3: or incentive to score first at nineteen seven, and I thought, boy, 574 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 3: this could really be the LT that's could be it. 575 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 3: And then I'm like, Okay, the last all the other 576 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 3: bets I needed, I go, what would really be great 577 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 3: is a Seattle defensive touchdown, regular extra point. And then 578 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 3: I'll get to twenty two, It'll be twenty nine to seven, 579 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 3: and the next play I got exactly that nobody caught him. 580 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 3: I felt like my soul left my body and I 581 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 3: was watching myself watch that play from above. 582 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 2: I gibble a lot. 583 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 3: I gabble every I have been on six Olympic Women's 584 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 3: hockey Games already. I gibble, I gabble a lot that 585 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: experience of being like I feel like I'm being lifted 586 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 3: above towards heaven. 587 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: And then. 588 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 3: The goddamned Patriots are like, oh, now we're pulling out 589 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 3: all the stops, and I do I want to call 590 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 3: out Drake May who's goddamn shouldered you didn't hurt with 591 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 3: four minutes to go in the fucking Super Bowl, and 592 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 3: uh fraught former Buffalo bill Stefan Diggs, who had a 593 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 3: much worse night than I did. Uh holding on to 594 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 3: a ball in the red zone after getting rocked and 595 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 3: spitting the ball as if only to me to set 596 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 3: up the touchdown. So too, Drake May and the Stefan 597 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 3: Diggs for helping to ruin a one hunde twenty nine 598 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 3: to seven perfect final score. I want to send to 599 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 3: you this message. I would like to rear up and 600 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 3: jet knife my legs and kick you both in the 601 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 3: fucking jaw with my footbone. 602 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 2: I wish my foot would go right through your skull. 603 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: Do you drink before you came here? No? 604 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 2: But I'm going to start drinking and then I'm going 605 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 2: to come back and. 606 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: Light you on fire. We remember the bad beats, we 607 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: just do. It was a glorious game. I'm glad we 608 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: got to watch it. We want to bring on right now. 609 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: We want to do actually one quick word from our 610 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: friends at Zebiotics, and then we've got an interview with 611 00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: our contest winner, Matt. The football season is over and 612 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: o more getting up early on Sunday mornings to record 613 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: a show looking forward to free and easy Saturday nights, 614 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: enjoying some cocktails with our friends and family. Despite our 615 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: incredible grit and resolve, we don't bounce back like we 616 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: used to, and you've got kids to deal with every morning. 617 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: That use to me choosing between a great night or 618 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: a great next day. But that was before we tried 619 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: pre alcohol zbiotics. Pre alcohol probiotic drink is the world's 620 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: first genetically engineered probiotic, invented by PhD scientists to tackle 621 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: rough mornings after drinking. Here's how it works. When you drink, 622 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 1: alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut. 623 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: To build up of this byproduct, not dehydration that's to 624 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: bloom for rough days after drinking, pre alcohol produces an 625 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: enzyme to break down this byproduct. But just remember to 626 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: make pre alcohol your first drink of the night. Drink 627 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: responsibly and you'll feel your best tomorrow. Matt, you've got 628 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: a special occasion coming up this week.

I'm so glad 668 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: you are the grand prize winner. You went five to 669 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 1: ohero in the last week of the contest. Tell us 670 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: how you did it. 671 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 5: A lot of the credit had to go to the 672 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 5: Sharpen Square podcast. I don't have my old models. I 673 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 5: don't have I don't research trends, so a lot of 674 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 5: my insight and rationale behind those picks come from you guys. 675 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: Damn straight Ye, what did you end up doing for 676 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:56,959 Speaker 1: your final five? 677 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 5: If I remember, I think I picked the the Toros 678 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 5: under I did the first half under. I also had 679 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 5: Sam Donald throwing for under one point five touchdowns, JSN 680 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 5: having no receiving touchdowns, and Romandra Stevenson under for the 681 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 5: rushing yards. 682 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 1: Wow, so you didn't even do one of the sides. 683 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,240 Speaker 5: In my heart, I felt that Seattle was the better team, 684 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 5: and I honestly felt they were going to blow out 685 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 5: the Patriots. But then the episode winning up to the 686 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 5: Super Bowl, you guys were talking about how a lot 687 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 5: of the sharps were on the Patriots, so that gave 688 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 5: me some doubt, and ultimately I just decided it was 689 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,520 Speaker 5: better just a void who was going to cover or 690 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 5: who were gonna win the game altogether. 691 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: Simon, you talked him out of the easiest bet of 692 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: the day. 693 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 2: Well, he did take a sharp sign tacking the under right, 694 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 2: so at least he did follow some of the sharp 695 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 2: with ticking the under, and he didn't follow the sharps 696 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 2: by taking the Patriots. So I feel like he did. 697 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 2: He did well well. He picked the spots. That's what's 698 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 2: all about, right Chet, picking your spots. 699 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 1: You picked your spots. All in all, he made some 700 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,320 Speaker 1: very sharp choices, right like you and I had debated 701 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: the Jackson Smith and Jigba under half a touchdown so 702 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,280 Speaker 1: basically no touchdowns. We had talked about the Sam Darnold 703 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: like the under. Those were the sharp sides. We were 704 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: with him on the under and the Ramandre Stevenson under 705 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: his total rushing yards too. Here's what's interesting to me, Simon. 706 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: I'd like Kingston to explain himself here. You say, you 707 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: don't do models, you don't do a ton of research. 708 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 1: You mainly just listen to me and Simon throughout the year, 709 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: and that's how you come up with your five picks. 710 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: And congratulations again on winning. How is it that you're 711 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: gleaning from whatever we're saying? Better is tellent information, then 712 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 1: Simon and I are getting from whatever we're saying. 713 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 5: I mean it comes down to look right, I went 714 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 5: five and oh, but easily could have just went three 715 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 5: or two or two and three. You know, the game 716 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 5: could have easily went over on the totals if that 717 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 5: Kenneth Walker touchdown wasn't called back to a flag. If 718 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 5: Sam Darnold did in this Jsen on that throw where 719 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 5: I think you got to step on Gonzales. As easily 720 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 5: as I won the contest, I could have just also 721 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 5: easily lost. Just thank you too hard rought Sex for 722 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 5: sponsoring this contest, and it was super fun. Even if 723 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 5: I didn't win, I still think it was really really fun. 724 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 5: And I hope moving forward that they would do more 725 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 5: confident like this. 726 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: As long as we have a show, there's going to 727 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: be a contest I'm holding our sponsor to and I 728 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: think they saw how great it was.
