Jets forty 10 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 2: nine ers like this this week, like it feels like 11 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: Christmas Eve. I had a fantasy draft last night. My 12 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: son had a fantasy draft last night. I am signed 13 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 2: up for far too many survivor leagues. I'm in a 14 00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 2: pick them league that I was in the mix to 15 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 2: the whole shebang last year would have been really nice money. 16 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: I'm doing that again. I'm just so fired up. We 17 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: got a great guest today, Megan Peyton, the daughter of 18 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: Sean Payton, now working at FanDuel. So we'll talk gambling, 19 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 2: NFL season, her experiences growing up as the daughter of 20 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 2: a prominent NFL coach. I think there's some stuff in 21 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: there you're gonna love. Before we get to Megan, let 22 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 2: me quickly just buzz through a couple things on the 23 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 2: college football front. Because it was a monster college weekend. 24 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 2: Didn't post the it didn't do a pod yesterday because 25 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: took the day off. I had to work, of course, 26 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: one hour on the HERD one hour shows Cake, Oh 27 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 2: my gosh, so easy, three hours less. So we're gonna 28 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: go college football. So Big Picture Week one takeaways. Okay, 29 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,639 Speaker 2: Number one, not that the SEC's cooked. But you're kidding 30 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 2: yourself if you don't think that the margins have shrunk 31 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: considerably for the SEC. They have dominated college football for 32 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 2: the last decade. Before Michigan won the title last year, 33 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: the SEC had won six of eight titles, okay, and 34 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 2: the other two went to Clemson, which is prominently in 35 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 2: SEC country. So that region of the country has dominated 36 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: college football. And then last year Michigan won, Michigan on 37 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: the way to the title beat Alabama, and people were like, oh, 38 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 2: that Michigan beating Alabama. Remember Big Ten teams had gotten 39 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 2: their teeth kicked in in the playoff by SEC teams. Well, 40 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: the gap is shrunk, and you look at the market 41 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: forces out there, nil money flowing. Okay, the little guy 42 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: has closed the gap. You look at the transfer portal, 43 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: another one. The little guy has closed the gap. And 44 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: the final one, which is big is the twelve team 45 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: playoff that has people excited not only for the playoff 46 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 2: itself but the potential for upsets. And it's like, oh, dude, 47 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: before you could go like basically twelve teams, maybe ten 48 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: eight by November, it was like six four or five 49 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 2: teams matter in college football. Now it's gonna be like 50 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 2: fifteen teams are in play in November for a college 51 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: football maybe sixteen, I don't know, maybe seventeen, maybe twenty. 52 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 2: But bottom line, you don't have to go to the 53 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: SEC to get on the big stage. And I think 54 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 2: we're gonna start to oh, I mean hell, I don't think. 55 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: I know. With Michigan winning it last year, and you 56 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 2: saw the SEC go one in three against ranked opponents, 57 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: and I listen, I'm not obviously Georgia one and Georgia 58 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: looked really good. And Georgia destroyed Clemson, which is embarrassing. 59 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 2: And Dabble refuses to go into the portal like a moron. 60 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: That's his funeral, buddy, I'm sorry, I can't get into that. 61 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: But if you look at how the opponents won this 62 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: weekend against the SEC. Oh, would you look at that 63 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: Notre Dame, which plucked its quarterback from the transfer portal, 64 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: Riley Leonard. He wasn't great, but in the fourth quarter 65 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: it would have mattered winning time. He was clutch, and 66 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 2: the veteran quarterback came through and they won at Texas 67 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: A and m right transfer portal quarterback victory. Now you 68 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 2: go to Miami and you had cam Ward, who looked like, 69 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: in my opinion, the best quarterback this weekend college football. 70 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: I know everybody loves Beck. I like Beck. What's it name? 71 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: Gabriel at Oregon did not look sharp. Cam Ward was 72 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 2: the best quarterback in college football this weekend. It's just 73 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: one week. Schauder look good, yes, but cam Ward coming 74 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 2: from Washington State transfer portal guy and he goes into 75 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: the swamp and destroys Florida. And then finally you got 76 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 2: USC taking down LSU on Sunday in a great game. 77 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 2: USC five defensive starters acquired via the transfer portal. So 78 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 2: you can build through the portal and start catching the 79 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 2: big dogs. And yes, the SEC is building through the 80 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 2: portal as well, but everyone else has a shot at 81 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: better players. Now Ohio State's new quarterback from the portal. Like, 82 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 2: I'm just telling you, the gap has shrunk considerably. What's 83 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 2: happening in the market with the NIL and with the portal. 84 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: It's really making it fascinating that college football is now. 85 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: It was for a while a regional sport. It felt 86 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 2: like the SEC was so dominant all the best players 87 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: went there. Well guess what. Now it's like, Okay, you 88 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: can have the best recruits. SEC. I'm gonna get the 89 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: best twenty one to twenty two year olds, and we're 90 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 2: gonna come out and compete with you, because I'll take 91 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 2: twenty two year olds any day of the week when 92 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 2: they're competing against eighteen nineteen year olds. And I listen, 93 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 2: I'm not saying the death of the SEC, but for sure, 94 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: their stranglehold on college football's done. It's over. They're not 95 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: gonna totally dominate the sport. You're gonna see Miami's gonna 96 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: be in the playoff, Notre Dame's gonna be in the playoff. 97 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 2: This USC team spicy. I did not think the defense 98 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: was particularly awesome. They were certainly improved from last year 99 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,239 Speaker 2: and they gave up like four hundred plus yards. But Uliss, 100 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 2: you only finished with twenty. Now you could blame the quarterback. 101 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 2: You could bring Bob Brian Kelly ineptitude in the red zone. 102 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 2: I had the over and that didn't even sniff thanks 103 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 2: to all that ineptitude. But four and two weekend on 104 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 2: the gambling front, I posted all the picks on IG 105 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 2: Saturday morning. I'll try to get them up earlier. I 106 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: had my boy, who I saw I pick up basketball, 107 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 2: was like Jay Mack, I didn't see your picks. I 108 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 2: had stuff to do and I wasn't able to tail them. 109 00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: And that was when I was four and one after 110 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: Saturday and then the total whift. But so starting to board, 111 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: starting to shape up, very excited, and uh, we'll see 112 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 2: what happens on the NFL front. It's still very early. 113 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 2: The contest that I signed up for last week, that 114 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: doesn't The lines are up on Wednesday night, so we've 115 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 2: got some time. But listen, man, that was an awesome 116 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 2: weekend in college football, and I'm fired up. Texas Michigan's 117 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 2: gonna be good. I haven't seen let me say, I 118 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: gotta go look at the line real quick. But I 119 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 2: know everybody's obviously penciling in Texas is the winner. But 120 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: you got to go into ann arbor. Michigan put nothing 121 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: on tape. By the way, first half under Michigan Fresno 122 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 2: was easy as hell. Michigan didn't want to put anything 123 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 2: on tape at all, and that's I think that's part 124 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 2: of the reason they looked pretty rotten. So the line 125 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 2: like buzzed through here in Michigan. Oh my goodness, Texas 126 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 2: seven and a half, y'all think Michigan's gonna get roasted 127 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 2: in the big House. It feels like a massive over 128 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna have to go in bed. I'll 129 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 2: just take a nibble at Michigan seven and a half. 130 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 2: I like Texas year this year, but I'm not going 131 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 2: to go overboard. After they, you know, beat Roast Beef 132 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 2: Tech sixty six to zero, I think Michigan at seven 133 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 2: and a half has to be the sid. I don't 134 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 2: either're gonna win, but they're definitely not. I can't see 135 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 2: them getting blown out. We did see a lot of 136 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 2: blowouts this weekend. I don't know. I thought the Michigan 137 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: defense was was pretty good. I know they lost a 138 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 2: lot of dudes, but that that game is going to 139 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 2: be phenomenal on Saturday. Fortunately, my kids soccer schedules do 140 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: not coincide, you know, opening weekend. I'm coaching my daughter's team. Yeah. Man, 141 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 2: the kids' sports. I always feel like sometimes it gets 142 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 2: in the way of the job.

It's weird because you're like 169 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: one of these like what a gen z x Y. 170 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 2: I don't know the freaking letters, but you're one of 171 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 2: these young people and there just isn't a ton of info, 172 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 2: So like, I don't really know a ton about you. 173 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 2: I like learning stuff about people. Obviously your dad's famous, 174 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 2: but I'm curious, like your background. Did you grow up 175 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 2: like playing sports? I know that one of the big things. 176 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: When I'm like reading about these potential quarterbacks who are 177 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 2: going to be drafted, it's like, yeah, his dad was 178 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 2: a businessman, his mom was a nurse. And then there's 179 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: other guys like Joe Burrow whose dad was a coach 180 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 2: and his grandfather was a coach. So like at the 181 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 2: dinner table. Joe Burrow's talking sports and football and plays 182 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: all the time. Obviously, your dad being a coach, you 183 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: have an interest in sports. I'm just your background. Tell 184 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 2: me about growing up as a sports girl. I'm assuming 185 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: you played Jay MC. 186 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 3: I'll tell you this, My scouting report's very limited. It 187 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 3: WoT it wouldn't have much to it. And that's why 188 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: we're talking sports. We're not playing sports. I'll tell you 189 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: that right now. I was not the athletic kid growing up, 190 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 3: but yes, being around sports, obviously football my entire life, 191 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 3: I definitely have always loved the sport. 192 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 4: You know what I will. I will put some I'll 193 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 4: put some. 194 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 3: Respect on cheerleading because I was in cheer and that 195 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 3: to me, if you've watched any of the documentaries, it's 196 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 3: a sport, whether you'd like to think so or not. 197 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 4: So we did, we did cheer back in the day. 198 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 3: But no, I think I obviously growing up around it. 199 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 4: I grew up in. 200 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 3: Texas for a lot of life too, so Friday Night 201 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: Lights was big. Loved all of the football scenes. And 202 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 3: then of course as betting got onto the map a 203 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 3: little bit later in life, I thought, okay, this is 204 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 3: this is a fun avenue to not only talk about 205 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 3: sports but try to make some money off of it. 206 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 207 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 2: No, cheerleading's definitely a sport. Bring It On a great 208 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 2: movie back in the day. I don't know about Bring 209 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: It On too or whatever. But also my I know 210 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 2: some people who were watching like this Dallas Cowboys cheerleader 211 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: reality show. Yeah have you heard of this? 212 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 3: Okay, so not only have I heard of this, this, 213 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 3: they had their own show on CMT back in the day. 214 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 3: It was like making the team for Dallas Cowboys and 215 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: then they came out with their Netflix special. But fun fact, 216 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 3: whenever my dad was coaching at the Cowboys as like 217 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 3: the offense coordinator, there was a thing you could do 218 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 3: as a kid and you'd get to do one game. 219 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 3: You'd sign up for to try out for it and 220 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 3: go do a halftime performance with the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders. 221 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 3: And it was pretty intense, even as like an eight 222 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 3: year old trying to like make the team for the 223 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 3: guest performance and it was cool. 224 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 4: So eventually you got the whole you know spiel. 225 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 3: We got to go out halftime with the cool outfit 226 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 3: and all the kids were out there. 227 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 4: So that's my that's my connection. To the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders. 228 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 2: Wow. So okay, that sounds like an interesting upbringing, you know, 229 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 2: having access to going on the field at Cowboys games. 230 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: So when you went to college, was your focus like, 231 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 2: you know what, I still want to kind of be 232 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 2: in sports. You just like, I've had enough Dad's talking 233 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 2: about it all the time. Let me move on from sports. 234 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 2: Like what was the college game plan? 235 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 4: I was kind of anti sports for a little bit. 236 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: I think in high school I thought like, all right, 237 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 3: you know, you want to make your own identity, kind 238 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: of step away from it. 239 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 4: But I felt myself. 240 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 3: Like still like, you know, secretly turning on all the 241 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 3: games on Sunday, and I'm like, I like this, you know, 242 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 3: even if my friends aren't. 243 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 4: Into it, It's always been in me. 244 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: And so moved out to California for college, started studying 245 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 3: a little bit more on sports journalism, got connected to 246 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 3: some great people early on in the industry. Laura Oakman, 247 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 3: Aaron Andrews, CHRISA. Thompson, a lot of really really established 248 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 3: people in this industry that were have been great mentors 249 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 3: to me and helped show a cool, unique side of it. 250 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 4: And I was like, I can see this working now. 251 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 4: This could be fun. 252 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: That's awesome. Yeah. I know CARRISA. Thompson better than the 253 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 2: other two, and she's tremendous. I did a gambling show 254 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 2: with her and Cowherd digitally at Fox. She knows her stuff. 255 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 2: But it is tough, Like when you get out of school. 256 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 2: Right now, all you read is articles. Oh no, nobody 257 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 2: can get jobs. The economy it's brutal, it's blah blah blah. 258 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: But like there was an avenue when you came out 259 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 2: where sports gambling is starting to pop. We've been joking 260 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:17,319 Speaker 2: about it, calling it the gambling gold rush. And I'm assuming, like, listen, 261 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 2: you get in where you fit in. I started in 262 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 2: newspapers and I pretty quickly saw it within a few 263 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: years like this stuff is dying. I got to get 264 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 2: the hell out quickly, so I went to magazines and 265 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 2: then the Internet. I'm assuming that was something that impacted 266 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 2: you as well coming out of school. 267 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 4: Absolutely. 268 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 3: I mean, and you've been in the gambling space for 269 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 3: a long time, and to see it from where it 270 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 3: was maybe seven, eight, nine years ago to where it 271 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 3: is now, it's grown immensely. I remember coming out of 272 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 3: college and I think a lot of people could relate 273 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 3: to this where everyone's telling you you got to go 274 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 3: local news, you got to move to like some small 275 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: Ohio town. 276 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 4: And I was like, ah, you know, I'm living out 277 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 4: in la I go to school out here.

I mean I went there and 295 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 2: I was like, there's no way I could live here. 296 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 2: It was like a tiny town in Kentucky, and I 297 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 2: was like, oh, well, it is only an hour from 298 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 2: the University of Kentucky and Louisville. Maybe I could make 299 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 2: it work. And I was like no, I can't make that. So, yeah, 300 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 2: like I can understand I want to do that, but 301 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 2: your dad, having been a coach, you got to work 302 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 2: your way up, you know. I mean, so did you 303 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: have to move with him wherever he went? 304 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: You know? 305 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 3: Interesting enough, a lot of the moves happened for me, 306 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 3: even like when I was really. 307 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 4: Really young, So moved around a lot. 308 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 3: As a kid East Coast with Philly whenever he was 309 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 3: with the Eagles. We went to Giants in New York, 310 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 3: then Dallas, then New Orleans and then I actually, I 311 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 3: think because it was you know, a lot of movement. 312 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 4: I remember my parents being like, all right, we're gonna 313 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 4: we're gonna. 314 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 3: Make sure you guys are settled for high school so 315 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 3: you're not moving around. So we actually moved to Texas, 316 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 3: which was super close to New Orleans, so we got 317 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 3: to go back and forth a bunch. But I actually 318 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 3: stayed there for all of high school, which was cool 319 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 3: because you felt. 320 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 4: Like you. 321 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 3: Didn't have that fear of like if if he doesn't 322 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 3: stay here, are we moving? You know? 323 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 2: I think I remember that because yeah, your dad was 324 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 2: with the Saints and all the rumors were, Wow, the 325 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 2: family is still in Texas. He's gonna coach the Cowboys. 326 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 2: That's obvious, and like those rumors. I definitely remember that 327 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 2: that was like a thing and you had to deal 328 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: with all that nonsense. Huh as a kid, I'm sure 329 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: you can't tune it out right. 330 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's interesting. 331 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 3: And then I remember a big one was when I 332 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 3: moved out to la for school. 333 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 4: I think that was like when it's one of the 334 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 4: Chargers shops open it and it was like and I 335 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 4: and I don't know. 336 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 3: I would always read about it, and of course everything, 337 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 3: as we all know, being in media can sometimes be 338 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 3: exaggerated from nothing just a little bit, yeah, just a 339 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 3: little bit, just a little bit, don't let the truth 340 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 3: get in a way of a good story. 341 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 4: And yet it was. 342 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 3: It gave me a unique perspective, I think, to media, 343 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 3: and at first was a little bit of the reason 344 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 3: why I was hesitant to get involved in it, because 345 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 3: I never wanted to be a like inauthentic reporter of 346 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: this or that. And I think that's also why the 347 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 3: betting syp was school, because it was like, hey, here's 348 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 3: a different outlook that's not necessarily you know, about writing 349 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 3: these crazy breaking news stories or writing. 350 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 4: These stories that are maybe like kind of you know, 351 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 4: hurting out other people. It's just, hey, here's a different 352 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 4: way to talk about the sport that we all love. 353 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 2: And I guess your big edge is you obviously do 354 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: know football. If your dad it's you know, I'm sure 355 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 2: he's talked about football with you for years and so 356 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: you have kind of a built in thing. Did you 357 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: instantly were you like, you know what, I'm just gonna 358 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 2: make football my gambling thing as opposed to you know, 359 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,239 Speaker 2: there's a bunch of people who say, hey, you can 360 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 2: find a big edge in betting the WNBA or Major 361 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 2: League Baseball or whatever the sport is. Were you instantly like, 362 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 2: let me just go football first. 363 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 3: I think instantly I thought, okay, on football first, because 364 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,479 Speaker 3: this is like the bread and butter sport. But I mean, 365 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 3: as you know, as a sports better, like everything's on 366 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 3: the table, and what's cool about what we're doing at 367 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 3: FanDuel is you know, and as you know you've done, 368 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 3: it's we're covering all sports. So maybe like you know, 369 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 3: yesterday I was all over the Caitlin Clark like her 370 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 3: assists number, and let's take the fever to cover, so 371 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 3: we'll touch on all of the sports. But I definitely 372 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 3: get that like Christmas morning feeling with the football season starting. 373 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,479 Speaker 2: Still, yeah, it's in football is the toughest market to crack, right, 374 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 2: It's so difficult, and a lot of people are like, oh, 375 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 2: come on, you missed your last two bets. I'm like, dude, 376 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: do you guys realize fifty seven percent is like a 377 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,120 Speaker 2: huge victory for the. 378 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 4: If you're over fifty percent. 379 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 3: Okay, Jame, I have a question for you because I 380 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 3: find it sometimes I have a little bit of like 381 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 3: bias and attachment to my teams. 382 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 4: That I like in football, so it actually makes it 383 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 4: sometimes harder. 384 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 3: To bet versus maybe WNBA or MLB. I might not 385 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 3: have as much of a connection or a team that 386 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 3: I'm passionate about. So you can really just like look 387 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 3: at the numbers, look at the trends and the stats, 388 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 3: and sometimes I'm like, wait, why are these bets? Why 389 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 3: am I getting more success with these versus my own sport? 390 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: And it's like, you find you gotta find a way 391 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 3: to not attach yourself to the teams and the players 392 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 3: that you love, which I find myself doing in football. 393 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 2: So you do that, you think you do that more 394 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: in football as opposed to okay, because. 395 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 3: You can attach, like, don't you feel like I'm like no, Like, 396 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 3: I'm dead set on this guy, like he's gonna be 397 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 3: He's gonna be a star, and I gotta be proven wrong. 398 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 3: I have to have a few bad beats before I'm like, nah, 399 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 3: I'm done, I'm done taking you know, the Seahawks to 400 00:18:58,400 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 3: cover I'm done. 401 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 2: Well, Yeah, I think you're probably right. Last year the Saints, 402 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 2: I really liked them. The schedule was cake and they 403 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 2: just kept doing the dumbest things. Uh, and the coach 404 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 2: was awful. He's probably gonna be the first coach fired. 405 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: Oh. 406 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 2: By the way, that leads me to ask, So obviously 407 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 2: you're you have opinions and takes and you're giving out 408 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 2: bets and all this stuff. Have you gotten any where 409 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 2: you've been maybe harsh on a particular player or coach 410 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 2: and it roundabout way got back to your dad and 411 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 2: then you heard from him on it. Because listen, I've 412 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 2: taken some shots of people and you know, for instance, 413 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 2: Cam Newton then comes after me, and people come in 414 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 2: like other athletes at Fox are like, hey, Jay, you're 415 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 2: really going hard at Cam. Huh. Yeah, he's not a fan, 416 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: you know that kind of like people will send a 417 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 2: message to me through other channels, but has that Have 418 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 2: you had any of that yet or not? 419 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 3: Really, it hasn't happened yet where it's actually gotten through 420 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 3: you know, him to me. I mean, I'm sure as 421 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 3: you know, like he's not too shy himself on his 422 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 3: takes and his so much room to talk if he 423 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 3: wants to come after me. But I'm kidding, But I 424 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 3: think there's a balance in our industry. 425 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 4: And it's something you do really well. It's something Colin 426 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 4: does really well. 427 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 3: It's you're passionate about your opinions, you do it in 428 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 3: a respectful way, and at the end of the day, 429 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 3: like happy to be wrong. One of the favorite things 430 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,239 Speaker 3: that you guys do on the Herd is like you 431 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 3: acknowledge where you're right, where you're wrong, and that holds 432 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 3: yourself accountable. 433 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 4: So I might come out with a hot take that like. 434 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 3: Like I'm fading all stock on the Falcons this year 435 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 3: and saying, no, everyone's hyping up. 436 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 4: Atlanta and I'm not buying in. 437 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 3: And that's in lack of another way, I'm kind of 438 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 3: like hating on Kirk Cousins and I'm hating on some 439 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 3: of these younger athletes, but I will gladly admit if 440 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 3: they start the season five and zero, I was wrong. 441 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 2: Wait, Son, so that is one of your takes. You're 442 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 2: out on the Falcons. Let me look up their week 443 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 2: one line Falcons at home again, and it's Pittsburgh. According 444 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 2: to FanDuel, Atlanta's minus three. So you're like, in Pittsburgh. 445 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 2: I'm gathering, you know, s Pittsburgh. 446 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 4: Is gonna ben interesting again. It's it in Pittsburgh, is it? 447 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 2: No, it's in Atlanta. I don't know that there's a 448 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 2: home court home field advantage for the Falcons. 449 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 3: There maybe not, but I think there's still a home 450 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 3: field advantage for Mike Telmann and Pittsburgh even with the 451 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 3: quarterback drama that they're dealing with. 452 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 4: I think the Falcons could potentially win that game. 453 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 3: I don't know if their defense is improved much at all, 454 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 3: and that's what concerns me. I'm just ultimately not buying 455 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 3: in on the fact that they're going to go from 456 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 3: a seven win team to an ten win team just 457 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 3: because Kirk Cousins comes into the party. I think we're 458 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 3: we're not giving enough credit for Baker Mayfield and what 459 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 3: he did last season, and you can still get the Bucks. 460 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 3: I think at like plus three hundred to win the 461 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 3: NFC South. 462 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 4: The Bucks, which is why are we buy the books. 463 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 2: I didn't say more. I have not looked into Tampa 464 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: winning the division at all. Let me see who they 465 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 2: even play in Week one? Uh, Tampa Bay is at 466 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 2: home against Washington and Jaden Daniels favored by three and 467 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 2: a half. 468 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 4: I would take the Bucks there. 469 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 2: Hmm, Okay, I didn't listen. Hey, I like it. You're 470 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 2: hot on the Bucks. The Baker Mayfield. You think he 471 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 2: could duplicate what happened last year. 472 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 4: I think so. I think that. 473 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 3: Like for Baker, what's hard is, you know, he hasn't 474 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 3: add inconsistency. 475 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 4: He switched from different coaches, different. 476 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 3: Teams, and finally he has an organization that says, we're 477 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 3: buying in on you, We're gonna pay you, We're gonna 478 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 3: make sure we re signed the pieces around you, keep 479 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 3: who we can and build this team. And ultimately the 480 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 3: Bucks didn't lose a ton of pieces. You know, they 481 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 3: get Mike Evans signed, Chris Godwin's still there, and at 482 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 3: the end of the day, they're still playing in a 483 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 3: very relatively easy division. Can we say in the South 484 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 3: where what's unfortunate for the Bucks is that they do 485 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 3: have to play in that number one schedule because they 486 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 3: won the divisions. About how a couple of tough matchups 487 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 3: than the others in the division. But look, if Baker 488 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 3: Mayfield can stay the way he did last year, I 489 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 3: know Canalis won't be there anymore. 490 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 4: I think that the Bucks could be a little bit 491 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 4: of an upset team. 492 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 493 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio 494 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to 495 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: listen live. 496 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 2: So I'm looking at Pro Football Focus and they're going 497 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 2: to start a rookie center, the kid out of Duke, 498 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 2: their first round pick, a rookie receiver out of Arizona. 499 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 2: The interior offensive line does not look great, and I 500 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 2: don't know if Washington will be able to take advantage. 501 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 2: But you make a good point, like this is a 502 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 2: team that got to the playoffs last year, won a game. 503 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 2: Winfield is still a stud in the secondary view, Devey 504 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 2: is still very good. Maybe there's a case that they're good. 505 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,719 Speaker 2: I did the problem with this team is they're just 506 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 2: so boring. You know, there's no real identity when you watch. 507 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 2: It's like, I mean, last year is just running into 508 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage, and it's just a lot of 509 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 2: boring games. So yeah, maybe I'm missing something. Okay, that's 510 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 2: a good take. You're all in on Tampa. So what 511 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 2: else Week one? Anything else jump out at you. Cowboys 512 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 2: are two and a half point dogs in Cleveland. My 513 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 2: Jets and the line, I don't know if you noticed this, 514 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 2: the line has cratered to Jets plus three and a half. 515 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 2: It was six and a half seven like two weeks ago. 516 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if this has to do with Trent 517 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 2: Williams unsigned, but anything on. Those are two of the 518 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 2: marquee games. I think Cowboys Browns, which will be called 519 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 2: by Tom Brady, and then Jets Niners. 520 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 3: I'm so excited to hear Tom Brady in the booth. Yeah, 521 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 3: he's gonna be so good for Cowboys. You know, obviously 522 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 3: they get Ceedee Lamb signs. It had to be a 523 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 3: whole waiting process, but ultimately that gives them the security. 524 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 3: I'm interested to see though. If you remember back to 525 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 3: when Ezekiel Elliott had the whole contract negotiation thing. I 526 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 3: was actually talking to Jane Slater about this today Cowboys 527 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 3: Beat Reporter, And if you remember, he was in a 528 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 3: bit of a pitch count in week one after his 529 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 3: signing because it was it was shorter than the CD Lamb. 530 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 3: I think he only had four or five days before 531 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 3: week one, and so they had to ease their way, 532 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 3: ease him into it. 533 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 4: You don't want those soft tissue injuries. 534 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm interested to see with Cede Lamb in week 535 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 3: one how quick they're going to be to, you know, 536 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 3: get him out there, How how the target share is 537 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 3: going to be split up. 538 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 4: I actually could see the Browns winning this game. 539 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 3: I like Dallas this season, and I've got the Cowboys 540 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 3: winning the NFC East. But ced lamp is such a 541 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 3: big part of that offense it might take like one, 542 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 3: maybe two games for him to get clicking. So I'd 543 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 3: actually I'd buy in on the Browns in that. 544 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 4: Game for sure. 545 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 2: Wow, Megan, with some major takes here, the Bucks and 546 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 2: the Cowboys, I don't I don't have Are you on 547 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 2: the Eagles in the EA? I think the Eagles are 548 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 2: going to be very good. Let me the other line 549 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 2: that's interesting is the Arizona Cardinals ross country travel to Buffalo. 550 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 2: This was seven and six and a half. Now I'm 551 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 2: seeing five and a half at your shop, FanDuel. It's 552 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 2: kind of juiced five and a half for Buffalo. But 553 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 2: I don't know anything on Arizona Kyler Murray going on 554 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 2: the road, Josh Allen, No, Stefon Diggs. The Buffalo defense 555 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 2: just ain't what it used to be personnel wise. Milano's 556 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 2: out anything on that one. 557 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 3: I have a few teams this season jmck where I 558 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 3: feel like I wouldn't be surprised if they win five games, 559 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 3: and I wouldn't be surprised if they win ten games. 560 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 4: The Arizona Cardinals are one of those teams where. 561 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 3: I'm like, you could either get Kyler back he's healthy 562 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 3: and him and Marvin Harrison Junior connect out of the 563 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 3: gate and Jonathan Gannon turns the whole organization around. That 564 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 3: could happen, But also we could be putting a lot 565 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:53,239 Speaker 3: on a rookie receiver and a slightly unproven quarterback and 566 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 3: they could be a six win team that would have 567 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 3: blown me away. 568 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 4: And then Buffalo. 569 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 3: Everyone keeps talking about the Bills in this rebuild year, 570 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 3: and I get it. To some degree they are, but 571 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,959 Speaker 3: to some degree they still have Josh Allen, you know, 572 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 3: under center. I like the way that the offense did 573 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: look towards the end of last season. I mean, Joe 574 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 3: Brady comes in and everyone's talking about Stefan Diggs leaving. 575 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: But remember the target share towards the end of the year. 576 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 3: It was Khalil Shakir getting majority of the targets with 577 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 3: Dalton Kincaid. 578 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 4: I still like the Bills. I would bet on the 579 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 4: Bills in this game as well. 580 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 3: Maybe Kyler Marvin Harrison gets something going later in the year, 581 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 3: but I wouldn't imagine in Buffalo they stand much of. 582 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 2: A chance for full season stuff. And it's again, it's 583 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 2: really tough to bet full season over because of injuries. 584 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 2: I don't mess around with too much of it, but 585 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 2: I am curious how you think this kind of shakes 586 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:51,959 Speaker 2: out when you start to look at playoff teams and 587 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 2: I don't know, do you do any full season wagers 588 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 2: or shy away from them? 589 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 3: No? 590 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 4: I love them, j MC. It's so bad, all of them. 591 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 3: And you know how it's like you kind of like 592 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 3: start to write this script and it's like, no, but 593 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 3: if one thing goes wrong, then everything crumbles. But I 594 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 3: love the full season stuff. I mean, I definitely have 595 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 3: my division picks. Speaking of Cowboys, I really like CD 596 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 3: to lead in receiving yards for the year. It's at 597 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 3: plus seven fifty. It's the second shortest on the odds book. 598 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 3: And when I look at that, it's obviously you're taking 599 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 3: the top receiver. So it's not too much of a 600 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 3: hot take. It's just how are the shares being split up? 601 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 3: And last season, I mean Dack's throwing to CD. There's 602 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 3: not a good clear cut wide receiver too. Jake Ferguson 603 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,239 Speaker 3: I think had the second most targets receptions and it 604 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 3: was like quite a gap between him and CD Lamb. 605 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 3: Then I worry with okay, Tony Pollard no longer there, 606 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,239 Speaker 3: what's this run game going to look like? 607 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 4: Are they gonna just have to throw it at all points? 608 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 3: So I'm very happy the Ceede Lamb contract got on. 609 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 3: I don't think it'll take them too long to get 610 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 3: right back into that offense. So that's one of my 611 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 3: favorite futures bets. I've got a couple others that I like. 612 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 2: A fire away, go ahead, fire away. 613 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 4: All right, So I like that one I'm taking. We're 614 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 4: talking about the Bills. 615 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 3: I like the Dolphins to win the East to AFS East. 616 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 2: I know, I know, this is why she's taking over 617 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 2: the sports gambling space. I mean Tampa, Dallas, and now 618 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 2: Miami through division winners. If those three happened, I mean, 619 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: you'll just retire over to some island in the Caribbean. 620 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 4: Right, I mean, you know it's really tempting. And we 621 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 4: actually did this as a fun segment. I'm not encouraging 622 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 4: anyone to do it. 623 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 3: But if you go through on FANDUL and you can 624 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 3: parlay all the division like you know, if you pick 625 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 3: the correct division winner and every decision, and in mine 626 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 3: was that like you know, pulus one hundred thousand or 627 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 3: something crazy. 628 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 2: No, I mean if you pulled that off, that would. 629 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 3: Be Yeah, then we would definitely retire and we'd be 630 00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 3: just the ambassador for everything NFL gambling. I obviously have 631 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 3: some chalk here, play some you know, favorites, I like 632 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 3: the Niners and whatnot. But speaking of when we look 633 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,959 Speaker 3: at the Dolphins, you know, everyone's going to talk about 634 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: how they are later in the season. 635 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 4: I think they have a pretty favorable schedule. 636 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 3: They don't have to play Buffalo Super late in the year, 637 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 3: which is going to help with the weather. 638 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 4: Too, and now is getting paid. 639 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 3: It feels like the Dolphins are finding their rhythm, their 640 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 3: their kind of groove on offense. And then speaking of Dolphins, 641 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 3: if you're not into them winning the division, my favorite, 642 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 3: like long long shot is devon a Chan to lead 643 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 3: in rushing yards for the un I mean, it sounds 644 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 3: crazy and you have to scroll like it's not a 645 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 3: top bed. It's it's at a really good number. But 646 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 3: you know, when he was healthy, he was getting more 647 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 3: carries than most aret was.
