I can't look at what a weekend and 32 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: what a night for for me personally, but basically for 33 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: this political stuff. This this guy we have in our group. 34 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: He he's old man, he's like late sixties, early seventies, 35 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: and he lives in Egypt and he's just day trades currency, 36 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: that's what his real job is. But he's so good 37 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: at political betting and especially American he's so good. So 38 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: basically he reached out to my boss Bob, and Bob's 39 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: one that sends it out to all of us. He's 40 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: telling us what this guy is doing, what this guy's 41 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: looking at So basically, this guy sent out to us 42 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: that he liked Trump, he liked the value on Trump 43 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: when he was sitting at one eighty, so it's like 44 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: a one eightiot. Moved to one sixty. About ten minutes 45 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: later because like obviously a lot of big money people 46 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: are getting the same exact message, moved to one fifty. 47 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: I took it again on Trump and I put it 48 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: out on Twitter because I was just like, you know what, 49 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: this this looks real, this looks like good value. And 50 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: I put a disclaimer. I'm not red, I'm not blue, 51 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: I'm green. I'm just putting this out there. I have 52 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: no I have no idea, man, I don't know anything 53 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: about politics. I don't watch politics. I'm just going off 54 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: a person who is really well informed and on the 55 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: inside of a lot of this stuff. And basically I said, 56 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: if if Boden becomes a dog, you take it, and 57 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,119 Speaker 1: you just have free money on the middle. A couple 58 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: hundred people are been a thousand bucks. That's all that 59 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: comes in at a million dollar movement in a matter 60 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: of minutes. So of course this guy was spot on. 61 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: He told us check back in at ten thirty before eleven, 62 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: not like ten o'clock East Coast time, and check the 63 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: line and get take Biden already took Biden a plus 64 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: two hundred. One said, moved that much, and then I 65 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: took him again a plus three hundreds, because it's just 66 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: crazy value to me, this is a coin toss, just 67 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: like everyone else is saying, this was a coin toss 68 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: kind of match up. I basically couldn't go to sleep 69 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: because I just was just waiting for at the end, 70 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: Like I know most people are in the same boat 71 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: as us is there as Americans were just waiting for 72 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: the results. I think it was like one am. Biden 73 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: came out and he just gave like the huja speech 74 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: of like we're doing good, like who knows, like we 75 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: gotta wait for them to count it. Then Trump comes 76 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: out and he's like I won, it's voter fraud or 77 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: whatever he was saying, and I'm just like, holy hell, 78 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: I don't I can't go to bed. I just need 79 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: to know who won. So I finally passed out like 80 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: two or three in the morning, and I woke up 81 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: and Biden, what was what he was up to? Like 82 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: three hundred this morning? Minus three hundred, right, yeah, he's 83 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: in about minus three hundred right now. So basically, like 84 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: people don't understand what these American books, they think they 85 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: don't want to do it because there could be voter 86 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: fraud or whatever it goes on if they can leg 87 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: legally let people bet on the elections here, I just don't. 88 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: I just think they don't want the volatility, like people 89 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: like me, other people that took Trump and then took Biden. 90 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: Is these big dogs. We we all just made over 91 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,799 Speaker 1: ten thousand, twenty thousand dollars easily last night. Never sweat 92 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: it was like and not that I went to script, 93 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: but like people thought I was gonna sixteen when Trump 94 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 1: was running away with the election by eleven pm on 95 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: the election night, where I just I trusted what he 96 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 1: was saying about these late boats were gonna come in. 97 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: It was gonna move the odds a ton. And yeah, 98 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: if you're if you're a better and you don't, you 99 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: don't have a dog in the race, like you don't 100 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: really care about either side and you just wanted to 101 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: make money. It was just an incredible night, especially if 102 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: you don't have emotion attached to it. It's just it's rare. 103 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: You you literally take a game straight up where both 104 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: teams are dogs and you just know you're gonna hit 105 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: the middle. So it was just God, it was a 106 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: good night. Man. Listen, you're on a bit of a 107 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: hot streak. Uh what transition here from the politics? I 108 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: just wanted people to understand, like how a professional better 109 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: is thinking about the markets and and really what the 110 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: markets were doing. It was so volatile last night. It 111 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: was so interesting, and we were seeing it in real 112 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: time on the Action Network. Honestly, it's yesterday was the 113 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: biggest traffic day we've ever had, um because the entire 114 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: nation was focused on what are the odds? And I 115 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: think there were a lot of panic searches for how 116 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: can this person win? What are the odds for this 117 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: person to win, not understanding that there are real betting 118 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: markets attached, just wanting to sort of ease their minds 119 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: as they watched John King flip his magic wall NonStop. 120 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: But I think too, I think too, it's that we're 121 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: not that we're we don't trust the media, But you 122 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: know it is when when you're watching Senior Fox, they're 123 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: just gonna spin it positive to their side. Regardless where 124 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: people want a non they just want no bias. That 125 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: that's why I think your site got so much traffic 126 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: was you guys aren't picking a side. You're just literally 127 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: telling people of the odds, and you're letting the market 128 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: tell people what the odds are. So I think people 129 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: just found comfort in it. Where if you were a 130 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: Trump supporter, you're a happy seeing it was a huge favor. 131 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: And if you're abiding guy, you were just nervously checking saying, 132 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: oh my god, he keeps becoming a bigger dog. Where 133 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: then you flipped it this morning, like we were just 134 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: talking about one person woke up thinking of it was 135 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: it was all good, and they just got quickly realized, 136 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: oh my god, the market is shifted completely while I 137 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: was asleep.

I never thought it was gonna be mine. 173 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: He gave it to Autism Speaks. We were so inspired 174 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: we matched his donation. So we've given eight hundred dollars 175 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: to Autism Speaks um and every week going forward through 176 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: the end of the year, we are still giving one 177 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: lucky listener a hundred dollars for every game we win. 178 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: So someone this week is getting four hundred bucks because 179 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: we chose their review.

We went four 193 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: one last week. The Pats crushed us. Uh the Broncos. Dude, Broncos. 194 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: Explain to people, Explain to the people our text on 195 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: Sunday morning, because I literally, like, in the most passive 196 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: aggressive way possible, tried to walk you off the Broncos 197 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: eight different ways. Yeah, and like, um, people, who gotta 198 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: understand me and Chad, we we're buddies. We're just ball 199 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: we're ball busters. Like he he hated the Broncos pick, 200 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: and he hated it all weekend. And the problem he 201 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 1: doesn't understand that's just more fuel for my fire man. 202 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: When when Chad's just doubt and I'm just like this guy, 203 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: he's like I always talked about it. It's my profession 204 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: is so weird where I may have this guy at 205 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: the gas station while I go and see like once 206 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: a week, you know, pull out my car and he 207 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: goes five and on his picks and I go one 208 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: and four in my picks and he goes, hey, this 209 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 1: guy doesn't know much. He goes, I know just as 210 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: much as a so called professional, just because he had 211 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: one good week. And that's the forever battle as a 212 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: professional wear I give out games and it's just never ending, 213 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: people saying, well, how can you think this this team 214 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: is terrible? This team is so much better. That's a 215 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 1: bad number. And it's just like I'm playing a model 216 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: and playing a system. Man, Like, I'm with you. I 217 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: don't like to pick either, but if my model is 218 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: saying this game should be a pick, we're getting three 219 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: and a half lock up Denver easy bet, and holy hell, 220 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: was that a sweat. I I'm watching it and uh 221 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: they score and uh not that I trolled the Twitter followers, 222 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 1: but I put it out too. And two just a 223 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: mess with people, and of course people are like, oh, 224 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: three and one, three and one. I was like, I know, 225 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: I know, It's just it was just funny because everyone's like, oh, 226 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: you're so lucky. I've never I've never wanted bet that 227 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: I didn't get lucky on. I've never lost it bet. 228 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: I didn't get on lucky on that's just gambling. So 229 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: that was a sweat the Eagles one. I mean, people 230 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: can say, again we got lucky, old scooch saying, man, 231 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: what what's the scooch saying? The right side side is 232 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: the winning side. So me and said, I don't care 233 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: how lucky we get. We're just gonna keep counting our money. 234 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 1: So yeah, it was fun. And then I gave out 235 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: our picks, and well we'll break it down how what 236 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: round robins are. But if you if you don't ever 237 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: understand anything, like if I put out a round robin, 238 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: you don't get it. You literally have built the team 239 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 1: and nerrits of the Action Network that have gone through 240 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: anything you can think of gambling slang or betting rules 241 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: or anything. They have a whole page dedicated to round robins. 242 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: It'll break down exactly how to do it, what the 243 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: percentages are, what's the smartest way to play it. So 244 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: when I gave it around robin, um, people don't understand 245 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: it because I I should have put money lines, but 246 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: I just put it like I gave out Cincinnati Bengals 247 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: money line, gave out the Chicago Bears money, and I 248 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: gave out the Broncos moneyline gave out the Vikings money 249 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: line and um Miami Dolphins money line. And basically when 250 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: you do around Robin like that, the goal is to 251 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 1: go to for three. So you break it into twos 252 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: because there's five teams. You just do it two by 253 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: two and if you go to for three, you're gonna 254 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 1: make a nice little penny. It's pretty much just the 255 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: lazy man way, like you're pairing the Dolphins and the 256 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: Bears the easiest, easiest ways. That example explain what it is, right. 257 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: Just you can hold your hand out and you have 258 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: your thumb, your five fingers. Each finger is a number, 259 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: and you touch each finger to each other and that 260 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: canceled each other out. So your your thumb goes your 261 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: index finger that's one and two, then the fingernecks that's 262 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: one in three. So you go through like that. It's 263 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: you're literally I'm parlaying every all five of those games 264 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: with each other. But there's no duplicates. So it's basically 265 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: simple math. You you have five games, you're parlaying each 266 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: one one at a time with each other. It's and 267 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: like someone wrote on my Twitter, like I feel bad 268 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 1: now if someone never played around Robin, I induced them 269 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: to it. It's such an easy way to lose money 270 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: because it's like like a week like last week, going 271 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: four and one in that thing, I'm good now for 272 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: like five weeks. Like that's if I if the Bears, 273 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: which they showed up just one that thing, I run, 274 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: I went five and now you'd be taking I'd be 275 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: taking this call from Hawaii. I don't know. I might 276 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: not retire, but I'd be like, all right, this season 277 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: is over. I I peeked because five and O money 278 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: line around Robbins is so rare, so rare to hit, 279 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: and that Bears was a soul crusher man when they 280 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: went through over time. I was just like, today's my day, 281 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: Like this is gonna come through. But luckily most of 282 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: the people that read the read my tweet. Some of 283 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: them did the money lines, which paid out great, and 284 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: other people just did the spreads with the Dolphins onening line, 285 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: which also went five and not paid out great. So 286 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: for most people that was their first time doing around Robin. 287 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: I can promise you it's never this easy, like I'm 288 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: saying too. For if you go to for three and 289 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: around Robin with a dogs money lines, you pay up big, 290 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: Like I know, stucky and Colin they do a college 291 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: round robin. I like that way more than professional. Like 292 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: this is the first one I put out this series 293 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: because this week just lined up where I saw a 294 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: ton of dogs that could win out right. That's rare 295 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: in the NFL where it looks that easy. We're in college. 296 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: You gotta go over a hundred games that picked from 297 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: you can find win your dogs. So if you don't 298 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: know much about and you like playing them, Colin Stuckey 299 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: they do. They do a great round robin. That's a 300 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: good followup for them. Colin is Stuckey. Action Network College 301 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: Football Podcast. Catch it on Fridays. It's amazing. Listen, Simon, 302 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: you're practically like a professional at dropping the contextually relevant 303 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: shameless promotion and that's an impressive feat considering your relatively 304 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: new to the business. Yeah, I'm slowly selling out chat. 305 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: It's beautiful. I love it. I love it for you, 306 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: I love it for us, um and I'm glad you 307 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: was playing the round robin because we did get a 308 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: bunch of tweets about that, and and Matt Mitchell want 309 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: to make sure that that we Yeah, go to the 310 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: Action Network if you if you still don't get it, 311 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: they break it all down on paper. It's an easy 312 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: to read. Just read it before you do it. I 313 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: know a lot of people better blindly just because I 314 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: put it out. You kind of want to understand the 315 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: rules before you make these bets because it's not always 316 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: going to be that easy to win. Um, all right, 317 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: So we went four in one last week. The one 318 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: game that I was desperate to get into our picks 319 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: that we hadn't discussed last weekend was the Dolphins. We 320 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: ended up using the Dolphins to replace the Bears because 321 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: the Bears were just making me nervous even though they 322 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: were clearly the right side at the end of the game. Um, dude, 323 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: we are right now inty place out of what more 324 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: than eight hundred people for the draft Kings. What do 325 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: we win? One million dollars one point five million dollars 326 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: and three and a half three and a half back 327 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: of the lead to three and a half back of 328 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: the lead. Now we gotta still have to choose two 329 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: weeks where we don't make any picks at all. We're 330 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: still gonna put those picks in the Action Network. Gap 331 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: were still make picks, put them in the app, but 332 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: we will not put those picks into the contest. We're 333 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: not allowed. Let's set it up right here, right now, 334 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: Thursday night, We've got the Packers visiting the Niners. The 335 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: Packers are five and a half point favorites, and like, 336 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: look this game all of a sudden, no Jimmy G 337 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: no Kiddle. Uh. The Niners really starting to struggle with 338 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 1: injuries more than they were even before. Um, this is 339 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: the past, obviously, Yeah, and it like, honestly, going in, 340 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: I like the Packers just because them losing our home 341 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: to Minnesota and divisional game. I felt like this was 342 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: gonna be a great spot, coming come into the West 343 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: Coast and playing the forts here. But what do we know? 344 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 1: We know the forty Niners, their run scheme has just 345 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: been amazing against Green Bay. They played him twice last 346 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: year and dominated them both times without even eating Jimmy G. 347 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: It was just all running for the last year on 348 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: screen Bay. So I can't feel great about it because 349 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: I'm back in the backup QB here in the forty 350 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: nine Ers against hardably one of the best quarterbacks ever 351 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: to play in Rogers. But I'm gonna take the points 352 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: and just trust that there's good value here on the 353 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: forty nine ers at home in a short week, and 354 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: that they can control the game running it. So I'm 355 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: cool with pass and I don't really feel great about 356 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: taking the forty nine ers. I just think this is 357 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 1: situation i'll play where I'll have to take the forty Niners. Well, look, 358 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: Chris Raybon has been all over Aaron Rodgers and sort 359 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: of regressing the last five years, and he wrote a 360 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: lot about it last year. I know he's got a 361 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,880 Speaker 1: great column coming up this week about how Aaron Rodgers 362 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: is still not like playing at an all world level 363 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: despite what everyone believes. And there was more evidence of 364 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: that against the Vikings this past week. We saw it 365 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: against the Buccaneers a couple of weeks ago. So while 366 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: you may say, and we all may say is one 367 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: of the best ever, like, he's not what he was, 368 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of evidence to bear that out. 369 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: I'm glad we're not putting the Niners in the contest. However, 370 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: you're you're blaming Rodgers for that loss last week. I 371 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: didn't know he was playing middle linebacker for the defense. Listen, 372 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: he's not Dalvin Cook ran for a thousand yards. I'm 373 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: just saying, I'm okay, um Uh. I am on the 374 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: side that Aaron Rodgers isn't as good as he used 375 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,719 Speaker 1: to be, of course, and so I don't think like 376 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: I'm with you, man. I'm saying the Niners are part 377 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: of the right side here at five and a half, 378 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: even without half their team playing, because I think the 379 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: Packers are way overvalued. That's all I'm saying. I love you. 380 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: I love you too. All right, let's get to the 381 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 1: early games. The aforementioned Chicago Bears there five and a 382 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: half point underdogs at the Titans. Everything is split here. 383 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: There's no real uh, there's no real advantage and the 384 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: money there's no real advantage in the bets five and 385 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: a half? What are you rating this that? Simon? Wow, 386 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 1: I'm shocked by I'm shocked people are coming in on 387 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: the Titans after or that Bengals game of just everything 388 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: people say about the Titans game true. Their defense can't 389 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: stop anybody. They're the worst past defense in football. I 390 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: know they just got Desmond King from the Chargers, but 391 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 1: is he really going to solve all their woes? Um. 392 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: The biggest reason I just won't it's hard for me 393 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: to just take the Bears right now is they got 394 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: more injuries on the offensive line, and it's becoming apparent 395 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: where I don't know if um Nick Foles is budding 396 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: heads with Naggie, but you can just tell that he 397 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: some of these plays that Naggie's calling, Nick Foles just 398 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: does not like. He just does not think they're smart 399 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 1: for the situations. And come Sunday, I'm gonna be on 400 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: the Bears here. This number is way too big for 401 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: a Titans team that they haven't proven anyone. They should 402 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 1: be favored by more than three and a half three 403 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: against the winning team. But I would wait on this one. 404 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 1: You need to really know what's going on this Bears 405 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 1: offensive line because if if I know times, I'm a 406 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: great a great d line. But if if he can't 407 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: get any protection for Nick Foles, it's hard to back him. 408 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: So I'm cool up on that one the side. But 409 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: I do like the Bears here. You know, it's interesting 410 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: you say that about Nick Foles. I don't disagree, like 411 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: I I feel like he is lacking confidence in what 412 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: Nagi is calling. And I do feel like I saw 413 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: this the other day that there are times we're full 414 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: said that there are times Nagy is calling a play 415 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: that he knows it's not gonna work, and that looks 416 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: like it's happening constantly. Also, David Montgomery is is it's 417 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 1: just not functional, like he's a corpse. He's not hitting holes. 418 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: He dances every single time he gets the ball. Um 419 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: It is not a team that has any running game 420 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: to speak of whatsoever. And I will say so undisciplined, 421 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: like forget about what happened with the wide receiver punching 422 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: the defensive back for the Saints, like every single down. 423 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: It feels like there is some kind of stupid mental 424 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 1: mistake for the Bears that they will say is born 425 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: of aggressiveness, but it's really just them not functioning as 426 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: a team that understands how to do the little things 427 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: to keep themselves in a position to wind. You knows, 428 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: be that defense should not be giving up a one 429 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: minute touchdown drive at home to Drew Brees before half. 430 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 1: That that was that's on the coach, and so I'm 431 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: with you. Uh, Lions are now four point dogs. They 432 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: opened his two point dogs. They are now four point 433 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: dogs against the Vikings. What's interesting in this game is 434 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: that the bets and the money are coming in and 435 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: the Lions what say you professional better, Sigmon Hunter. Yeah, 436 00:22:55,240 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 1: maybe maybe Vegas laner trap here, but maybe the line 437 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: move too, because Kenny Gallady is supposed to be out 438 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: for Detroit and now he's a big piece for the 439 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: wire of receiving corps. But this game's this game feels 440 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: a field goal. It's like both these teams have big, 441 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: glaring weaknesses and they have all offenses that can score 442 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: for the most sport, and they can keep them in games. 443 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: So when I'm looking at this, something to myself. So 444 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: Minnesota just got a huge road win against Green Bay. 445 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 1: They're coming home playing a Detroit team that just lost 446 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: at home, that's going on the road that most of 447 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: their games they played tight, and they just got blown 448 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 1: out Detroit at home. So for me, this is an 449 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: automatic play I'm gonna ride with. I don't know if 450 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: it's a public or the sharps, but I like this 451 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: Detroit number, especially at plus four. I'm happy to take that. 452 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 1: You and I are in total agreement. And I will 453 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: say last week, the first game that we loved, the 454 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: very first game that we love that did not get 455 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 1: a lot of attention. It seemed like a no brainer, 456 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: Like you know, as the week goes on that you 457 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: can always sort of aggregate what is everybody talking about 458 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: and what are the picks and blah blah blah, and 459 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: like nobody loved the Colts the way we did. We 460 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: loved the Colts. And I look at this and I 461 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: think the Lions are the team in which I'm going 462 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 1: to do the opposite of what happened the week before 463 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: almost every week, And because the swings in the reaction 464 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: from the market to the Lions are so massive, and 465 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 1: so you're always going to get value on the opposite side. 466 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: Love the Lions here, let's do it. You know who 467 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: I don't I don't love at all Daniel Jones. I 468 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: think Daniel Jones is getting some kind of benefit of 469 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: the doubt. But he's just a bad quarterback. He is 470 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: inaccurate at this point in his career. He should not 471 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: be making these decisions that he makes, uh, And I 472 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: have just have no faith in him that Um, he's 473 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: a guy who will end up getting through a game 474 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: without making a catastrophic air that is going to send 475 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: me into complete disarray. So John to plus three visiting 476 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 1: Washington right now, and I know a lot of people 477 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 1: are gonna think like this, is a coin flip game, 478 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: so they're gonna take the Giants by personally, how this 479 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 1: at Washington minus four, And it has more to do 480 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: with the fact that Washington just has such a great 481 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 1: d line and coming off a bye week, and the 482 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: fact they lost the Giants in again they probably should 483 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 1: have won at least went to overtime in. I love it, 484 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: I love I love how this line's up for the 485 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:35,239 Speaker 1: Washington football team. So I understand why people think this 486 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: is good to take the three and a half the 487 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: three with the Giants, But I just think they're overlooking 488 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 1: that this Washington team, they don't really make mistakes. Kyle Allen, 489 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: he just doesn't turn it over, especially at the rate 490 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: like you were just saying, as the Giants do. So 491 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm cool with fading Daniel jalens here and just back 492 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 1: in this Washington football team. Do you like it enough 493 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 1: that we want to put it in the contest right 494 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: now or do we want to wait? Because the money 495 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: and everything's coming in on Giants right now. So right like, 496 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 1: that's that's why I put on the side. I hope 497 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: to get a better number because three, like we talk 498 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 1: all the time, we don't want to push in this competition, 499 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: we either just want to win or lose. So hopefully 500 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: this goes down a two and a half and I'll 501 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: happily take Washington. Here. We still have coming up the 502 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: big bet, your balls better the week, I don't even 503 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: know what we call that. Still big balls better the week? 504 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 1: We got that coming up. Now. We still haven't lost 505 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: one yet this year. Man, it's like four and o 506 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,360 Speaker 1: or five and our big balls better the week last 507 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: week Broncos Broncos. That's why. That's what I mean. You 508 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 1: need a big balls to make that bet, you dude, 509 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: We needed seriously big fucking balls, all right. The h Hawks, 510 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: uh three point favorites on the road at Matt Mitchell's 511 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: favorite team, Western New York's pride. The Buffalo Bills. Let's go. 512 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:09,119 Speaker 1: Let's the Bills make me wanna man, short home dog traveling. 513 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: All the money coming in on Seattle, all the bets 514 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: coming in on Seattle, give me one good reason why 515 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: we don't take the Bills here. I know it sucks. 516 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: This is a professional line. This is like situation where 517 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 1: you just you have to take the Bills. I know 518 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 1: Josh Allen hasn't played well. I know the defense has 519 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: just been atrocious and they can be run on. But 520 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: oh man, I have to take the bills. It's painful. 521 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: We probably won't put it in because this this, this 522 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: is too too risky. Where Russy in these situations, I've 523 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: just been burned by him a lot where he he'll 524 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: just cover this two and a half number. But I 525 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: just have to play the bills, your home dog that 526 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: hasn't been playing well against a team that just had 527 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: a huge divisional win coming across the country. Like you said, 528 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm taking the bills here. This game 529 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: feels like a hornet's net. I'm walking to a fucking 530 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: hornets nest, all right now, be my companion. It definitely is. 531 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: We're definitely walking to a hornets nest on this one. 532 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: We are walking into a goddamn hornets nest. These are 533 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: murder hornets. This number is gonna go up if it 534 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: crosses three, if it gets to three and a half, 535 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: And right now, eight percent of the money is coming 536 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of bets on this game already, 537 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: eighty percent of the money is coming in, and the 538 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: Seahawks of the bets are coming in on the Seahawks. 539 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: This game gets the three and a half. I would 540 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: have no problem putting in this in the contest. I'll 541 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 1: put it in if there's any type of weather, if 542 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: we get some snow or rain, I'm with you. I'll 543 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: back the Bills here. But if it's a beautiful day 544 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: up in Buffalo, there's no way I can back the Bills. 545 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: I can't back Josh Allen will beat the Seahawks and 546 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: the shootout. So I'm with you. We can put on 547 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: the side because I do love this number. Matt Mitchell, 548 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: if you could check in with the Action Weather Center 549 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: and let us know before the end of the podcast 550 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: what the forecast is gonna be at Orkhard Park on Sunday, 551 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: that would be fantastic. Next game up right, Ravens two 552 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: and a half point faves on the road at Indianapolis. 553 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: This one is a sticky wicket unless your rating is 554 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: telling you I got this. I feel confused. Yeah, I 555 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: got it at a pick, So I love the Colts. 556 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: Think you're getting a good number here. I cannot believe 557 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna make us bet the Colts in this one. 558 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: That's a huge difference between two and a half and pick. 559 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: Getting a home dog like this, I know I just 560 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: this is I don't know. I maybe maybe I'm overvaluing 561 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: um the injury to the old line of the Ravens, 562 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: but I just don't see how the Ravens can really 563 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: move the ball against this Colts defense. And we've seen 564 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: the evidence now, Lamar, He's played good teams and big spots, 565 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: and he keeps not playing up to the standard we're 566 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: accustomed to. Those interceptions he through last week, we're absolutely horrible. 567 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: He's throwing it right to defenders. And I don't know, 568 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: I'm with you, this is uh, this is this isn't 569 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: my big ball is better that week. But like I 570 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: have to take the Cults here. I just think this 571 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: is great value and this is this is a bad 572 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:22,239 Speaker 1: spot for the Ravens. Here are the contest worthy. I 573 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: feel better if we had the Colts at three and 574 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: a half. So if if, if the if the public 575 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: and other people keep coming in on the Ravens here 576 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: and we can get it back up to three three 577 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: and a half, I put it. I put it on there. 578 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: Not looking that way right now, everything money is split. 579 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: Public is coming in on the Ravens, so we might 580 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: get lucky, but the money is staying even, right now 581 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: Panthers visiting the Chiefs. They're ten and a half point underdogs, 582 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: getting the money but not getting the bets. Right. This 583 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: is sharp. This is a sharp play. We talked about 584 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: all the time on here. Teddy is a dog. We 585 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: take Teddy every time as a dog. I know the 586 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: Chiefs at home. I forget the exact staff, but it's 587 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: they might be like on one against the spread, something crazy. 588 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: And last week it was never ending people asking me like, 589 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: how can you take the Chiefs as a three point 590 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: nineteen point favorite? Twenty point favorite? And that's situational. I 591 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: never will take favorites that big usually, but if if 592 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: I have a good reading the game, I'm saying, well, 593 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: this number should be twenty three. Happy to take the 594 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: Chiefs for this week. I had this game at eight 595 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: and a half for the Chiefs, so eleven and a 596 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: half ten and a half with Carolina Panthers. I think 597 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: I'm getting three points of value. I love this play 598 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: for a good backdoor. So I'm on the Panthers this week. 599 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: Are we putting this in our contest? Let's put it 600 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: in for right now. I love it so right now 601 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: that the games that we love, we have games that 602 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: we love right now. We love the Lines plus four, 603 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: we love Washington minus three, but we're hoping to wait 604 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: because we think it might come down a little bit. 605 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: We love the Panthers plus ten and a half. And 606 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: by the way, we might get the Panthers more like this. 607 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: This This could be a little bit of a rocket 608 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: ship as the week goes on. Like it's still very early. 609 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: Not a lot of bets on this game. We got 610 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 1: three bets that we like right now out of the 611 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: early games. I do like having the early games just 612 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: because it, you know, helps me set up for the 613 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: rest of the day. Texans visiting the Jaguires seven point favorites. 614 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: This game is the proverbial corner TV game in our 615 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 1: virtual landscape. We will not have any interest in this 616 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: game unless you do now. It's too ugly, like the 617 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: pro of me. I'm gonna take the Jaguars. I know 618 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: they have the new QB in there, but you can 619 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: run on the Texans and the Jaguars they like to 620 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: running with Robinson. And everything I've seen from the Texans 621 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: is that they're not I don't know, They're not this 622 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: team that I can trust to be a seven point 623 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: favorite or anyone that's a lot of points for such 624 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: a bad team to be lying. And Texans have already 625 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: beat the Jaguars this year, So you think they're gonna 626 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: beat them two times? Just here? In both times? Why 627 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: I more than seven points? I just can't see it. 628 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna take the Jaguars this week, even though 629 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: I know they've just been horrendous of late. But I'm 630 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: gonna trust the number. I take the Jackson. Do we 631 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: have breaking news, breaking news from the Action Network Weather Center. 632 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: This just in from producer Matt Mitchell. Uh, it is 633 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: beautiful in the Paris of Western New York this weekend. Uh, 634 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: it shouldn't be sixty and sunny, so we might take 635 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: this game off the board for us. Yeah, that's that's scary. 636 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: Also an update on the continued lack of respect I 637 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: yet in my house. As every one of the podcast 638 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: who listens to the podcast is aware, I broke my 639 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: thumb playing football with my son over the summer. I 640 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: had surgery in September. I had three pins put in it. Um. 641 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: I had surgery on Monday to have two of the 642 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: three pins taken out. One had already been taken out. 643 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: My son texted me the other day when it was 644 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: clear Gardner Minshew was not gonna be playing because we're 645 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 1: broken thumb, and he said to me, I'll never make 646 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: fun of you for your broken thumb again, because that 647 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: would be disrespecting the goat. At least your kids, guys, 648 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: priority straight, that's what we're talking about. I am second 649 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 1: in line behind Gardner Minshew because he's so good on 650 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: mad and all right, all right, the Broncos our favorite 651 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: team in the NFL. The Broncos. I think that at 652 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: one point on Sunday, I just texted you they were 653 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: down three. I texted you so fucking pissed. I'm like, 654 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: fucking Broncos. And I knew like we were going into 655 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 1: a Sunday night needing Carson goddamn wins to win by 656 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: seven and a half.

Fuck you, Chad, how the Broncos plus 662 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: three and a half on the road of the Falcons 663 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 1: getting the money and the bets. Oh man, Yeah, it's smart. 664 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 1: But to make uh, why are the Falcons favored by 665 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 1: four points around anybody? Um, don't feel great about it 666 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: because we just got so incredibly lucky back in the 667 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: Broncos last week, and literally Drew Lock played one quarter 668 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: out of four. He showed up in the fourth quarter 669 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: and that's all we needed him for it to get 670 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: us that cover. But I cannot back the Falcons here 671 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: after their win on Thursday night. Um, I'm happy to 672 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: take the plus four, but I would not put this 673 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: one in the competition. No. Wait, this is a this 674 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,919 Speaker 1: is a total pass for me. Total pass. But here's 675 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: the thing. We got three games in that we like. Reminder, 676 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: we like the lines plus four. We uh like the 677 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: Panthers plus ten and a half. We tend to like 678 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: Washington Football team minus three. We're just hoping the number 679 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: moves a little bit more because the money is coming 680 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: in on Danny Jones, uh and the New York Football Giants. 681 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: All right, let's get us to the late games. We 682 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,760 Speaker 1: still haven't gotten to the big balls bet of the week. 683 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: I feel like we should use it on the Colts. 684 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: I feel bad now because I'm looking at these all lines. 685 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: It's like, oh, man, I mean, we'll get to the 686 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: game I wanted to use it on, but it's like, 687 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: I really want to use it here because yet, let's wait, 688 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 1: let's wait, let's see and then we can decide we 689 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: are moving into the late games. So right now, the 690 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 1: first late game on the board is the Raiders Las 691 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders visiting the Chargers. You know, it used to 692 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: be Ted Hendricks, you know from Oakland visiting Dan Fouts 693 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 1: for those of you who are old enough to remember that. 694 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: Instead it's the Las Vegas Raiders visiting the Los Angeles Chargers. 695 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: Chargers are a one and a half point favorite. It 696 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: feels like the right side. And then you said the 697 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 1: money and the tickets are coming in on the Raiders. 698 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: Money and tickets coming in on the Raiders, and the 699 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 1: line has moved from three to one and a half. 700 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm with you. I mean, we we can 701 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 1: make this the big balls by the week, because I 702 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 1: do love the Chargers in the situation. I love the 703 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: Chargers right here. People got burned last week by the Chargers, 704 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:14,320 Speaker 1: and just a classic fashion, the Raiders just had a 705 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: huge blow out win on the road. Now they're coming 706 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: back across country to come play the Chargers. So for me, 707 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 1: this feels like an auto play where you can't not 708 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: take the Chargers as long as it's under a field goal. 709 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: I'm happy to take the Chargers here and think they 710 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 1: can get a win here. Big balls better the week 711 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,919 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Chargers minus one and a half. For now 712 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: we might get it like. I like it a lot. 713 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: You know what I don't like Steelers two touchdown favorites 714 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 1: on the road at the Cowboys pass, just pass you coward, 715 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: you fuck you, you cower. What did you say? It's 716 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 1: my nerves, sir. I just can't stand you anymore. Yeah, 717 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 1: you're just a goddamn color. I won't have songs of 718 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: we're afraid to fight staking of this place of honor. 719 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: Hear me, goddamn cold. Yeah, we can pass it. And 720 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 1: this would be the third Strade road game for the Steelers. 721 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: So they've just beat the Titans, they just went and 722 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,800 Speaker 1: beat the Ravens. Now they're coming down to Dallas to 723 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: play arguably one of the worst football teams we've ever seen. Uh, professionally, 724 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 1: you should always take the Cowboys here, But as an 725 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 1: idiot that I am. I'm gonna take the Steelers and 726 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna keep fading this Cowboys team. It's just 727 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,280 Speaker 1: I don't think they have adjusted enough. I think without 728 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,959 Speaker 1: Dak this point, this should be a twenty point spread 729 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: of them at home, because what do we know about 730 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: the Steelers defense? One of the top units on football. 731 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: They might give up yards, but they get turnovers and 732 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,240 Speaker 1: they're staunch in the red zone. So in my mind, 733 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: if we just get a half decent effort from the 734 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,399 Speaker 1: Steelers here and they don't just sleep walk through this game, 735 00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 1: I can see them covering this number. But I'm with you, 736 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: I would not put this in the competition. Listen, you 737 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: don't bet against the news, you know what I'm saying. 738 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 1: I don't know if you watch that game the other 739 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: day against I did because we had it in the 740 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 1: competition and we needed it and we got lucky at 741 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: the end there. But listen, if you listen to the announcers, 742 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: ben Nucci's figuring it out. You can see it in 743 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,879 Speaker 1: his eyes. The game is slowing down. He so knows 744 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: what are you doing now? And then he gets sacked 745 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 1: eight times, gives up a fumble that gets us the 746 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: lock like that was idiotic. Some of the commentary. I'm 747 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: ben do Nucci figuring it out and the game slowing 748 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 1: down for him. And also, I don't think people are 749 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: considering enough people that are saying we got lucky. We 750 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 1: also got Doug Peterson. This man literally gave the Cowboys 751 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: six points. He kept going for it on his own 752 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: side or on their side at the fifth yard line 753 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,319 Speaker 1: on fourth down they get stopped. Cowboys were getting maybe 754 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 1: one or two first downs, and then Gregg the leg 755 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 1: would kick a field goal. So I know people think 756 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 1: we got lucky that the games hadn't even been close. 757 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,320 Speaker 1: That was just a terrible, terrible game altogether by the 758 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 1: Eagles team. We got saved by good Eagles defense. But 759 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: I'm with you if you're if you're the smartest guy 760 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:15,879 Speaker 1: in the room, you've been taking the Cowboys every week 761 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: and the Jets every week, You're not the smartest guy 762 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: in the room. You're just an asshole at this point. 763 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: So I don't want to take the Cowboys on this one. 764 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: Fighting words from Simon Hunter. My favorite football team the 765 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 1: past two years is the Miami Dolphins. They have won 766 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,280 Speaker 1: us more money. I didn't even bet the Dolphins against 767 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: spread this past weekend. We had him in the contest. 768 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 1: I bet him on the money line. That's how I 769 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: roll m L. Money line Millman, that's what they call me. 770 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 1: Now you're a legend. Legend. Dolphins are four and a 771 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 1: half point road dogs this week against the Cardinals. I 772 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:54,320 Speaker 1: feel like this is a tricky spot. Though tricky spot, 773 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: but the same reason I was cool with you talking 774 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: me into taking the Rams last week the same reason 775 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: this week. It's this Dolphins secondary is one of the 776 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 1: most underrated units on all football. They are arguably have 777 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 1: two top eight cornerbacks, and when I'm looking at this game, 778 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: I think to myself, what do we know about the Cardinals. 779 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: They can't really run the ball, they're past heavy team, 780 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: and it looks like the Dolphins just aren't gonna have 781 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 1: two to do too much. Last week, they just dumbed 782 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 1: the game down because they just got two defensive touchdowns 783 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: and a quick return touchdown. So it makes me a 784 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: little worried. Here. We're buying high a little bit on 785 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, but I don't think the number is too 786 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 1: bad plus four and a half. I know there'll be 787 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: a public dog this week, but I feel comfortable taking 788 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 1: the Dolphins here in the game that I got as 789 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 1: a field goal. So I'm happy back in the Dolphins 790 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 1: this week. We are as they say, we're going back 791 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: into the tank. Set it back to the well back 792 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 1: because you know, dolphins like in Aquaria. Thank, get it, 793 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:04,280 Speaker 1: get it, got it, not good, get it. Get Jesus. 794 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 1: That was cold cold alright. Saints and the Buccaneers. The 795 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: Saints are five and a half point underdogs on the road. 796 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 1: This number has moved up from four and a half 797 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: to five and a half. And yet and yet this 798 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: is a this is this is a prose. Joe's The 799 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: numbers moved up because the bets have come in on 800 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. But the money's come in on the Saints. 801 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,720 Speaker 1: So the the tickets are coming in on the Saints ticket, 802 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 1: No tickets are coming in on the box. Money is 803 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:39,320 Speaker 1: coming in on the Saints. Oh wow. Um, I'm shocked 804 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 1: by that. I mean, I know the Buccaneers they played 805 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: a really bad game against the Giants, but that was 806 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 1: well overdue. They played two games in a row just flawlessly, 807 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 1: and they were due for a letdown game, especially when 808 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 1: they're looking ahead to this game. I can't the Saints. Man, 809 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: they just I don't like it. I haven't liked what 810 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: I've seen the last couple of weeks. Drew Brees, I 811 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: don't like what I'm seeing from him. I don't like 812 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,840 Speaker 1: it either. I still know Michael Thomas still, like Sayinger 813 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: has been out with COVID. It's we're in a point 814 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: here where in this Buccaneers game. I hate that it's 815 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: such a high spread, but I feel comfortable taken when 816 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 1: I had to set six and a half for the Buccaneers. 817 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,640 Speaker 1: So in my mind, I'm getting a Buccaneers team that 818 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: played a really bad game that I know they won 819 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:23,400 Speaker 1: by the skin of their teeth and it came down 820 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: to two point conversion. But I just see them rebounding 821 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 1: really big here at home in a primetime game with Brady. 822 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,359 Speaker 1: So I feel comfortable taking minus five and a half. 823 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 1: You're the Buccaneers, you feel contest comfortable or you just 824 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: feel comfortable like as it better. Um, that's tough to say. 825 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: I love you know what. Yeah, let's put that in 826 00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 1: for right now. I do love it. It's been killing 827 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,439 Speaker 1: me these Sunday nights, though, because, like you just said, 828 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: we gotta stay up until whatever it is eleven thirty twelve, 829 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:54,439 Speaker 1: and then I get up at four in the morning 830 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: and start working on the next week. It is brutal, 831 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:00,280 Speaker 1: but in this situation here, like I just would Eagles 832 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: last week, I feel like this is a good number 833 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: for a primetime game with a favorite, So I'm comfortable. 834 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm with it. Let's take the Buccaneers. Listen, brother, listen. 835 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: I do not if if the excuse we need to 836 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 1: not take the Bucks is that we can't stay up 837 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 1: with you. Listen, Like the fact I was up till 838 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: two o'clock in the morning for the election stuff, and 839 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 1: the Action Network editorial team UM was working until six am, 840 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 1: and we had a meeting at midnight to go over 841 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 1: our staffing plans because we saw like how crazy the 842 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 1: night was going to be and want to make sure 843 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: we were able to cover it all through the night. 844 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 1: And like the the response I got from being able 845 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,399 Speaker 1: to stay up until midnight and be available to even say, hey, 846 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: maybe we should talk about this was overwhelming. So there's 847 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 1: no way I want to stay up to watch a 848 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,799 Speaker 1: game that I actually have to bet on UM, So 849 00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 1: I'm happy to not put it in just for that. 850 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,359 Speaker 1: Well put on the side. Well, because the worst worst case, 851 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: you can just go back to you can go to 852 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 1: bed at halftime. I'll just be the one sweating. I can't. 853 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: I can't do it that way. I gotta sweat it. 854 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: I gotta know I had to sweat. Listen, We're in 855 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: thirty eight place in the Draft Kings contest. And the 856 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: only reason I know that is because you had told 857 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 1: me and Matt Mitchell earlier in the day that we 858 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 1: were top forty uh with our finish and then if 859 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,879 Speaker 1: the bucks covered the bucks didn't cover, we would be 860 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: um moving up the chains, and so like I had 861 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: to stay up just for that, Like, and I had 862 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:35,319 Speaker 1: had surgery that day. Yeah, And it's funny the Top 863 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: competition guys a lot of these guys. Every week, if 864 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,760 Speaker 1: you go through their picks, all they're doing is fading 865 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys and the Jets with two of their picks, 866 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 1: and then the three other picks they have left over 867 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 1: either go two favorites and one dog or two dogs 868 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 1: and one favorite. And it's been like, like I want 869 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 1: to say, at the top fifty of the people. On 870 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 1: Monday night played the Buccaneers, which was I'm not trying 871 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:00,360 Speaker 1: to say it was a stupid bet by then, but like, 872 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 1: come on, so like in my mind it gives me confidence. 873 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, these guys are kind of amateur. 874 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 1: They're making amateur bets here. So right now we're mean, 875 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 1: you're sitting. If we can just keep like like we 876 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 1: talk all the time our our bed weeks or two 877 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 1: and three, we're gonna we're gonna be in the top 878 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: fifty come weeks sixteen. So I'm really excited right now. 879 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 1: All right, the last game is the Patriots and the Jets. 880 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 1: The Patriots are seven point favorites. This team's trash. The 881 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 1: Jets are trash. Neither of us want to be able 882 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 1: to want to spend our Monday night. Like to me, 883 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,800 Speaker 1: that Monday night, I'm circling that. That's when I'm finishing 884 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: the Queen's gam But on Nextflix, I am not watching 885 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 1: this game. Trash trash game. Uh bet in the Patriots 886 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,640 Speaker 1: just because I'm just gonna keep fading the Jets. It's 887 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 1: just been good to me, and I can't give you 888 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: a good read on it had this number at seven, 889 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: so technically you're getting good value on the Jets. But 890 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 1: I don't care taking Cam on the road against this 891 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: horrible Jets team. All right, we're gonna get to the 892 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:58,399 Speaker 1: phrase that pay is. We're gonna announce our winner. We're 893 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 1: gonna announce that we're giving the money away a charity again. Um, 894 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: but we are through the board and first but first 895 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 1: survivor contest. Oh, yes, survivor. We continue to survive because 896 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: we had the Bucks last week. We were doing it 897 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 1: and we talk all the time. We started with over 898 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 1: half a million people. We are down below sixteen thousand 899 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 1: people left. Yeah, and uh, there were those people are 900 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 1: praying for that Bucks loss because that was thirty five 901 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 1: of our pick pulls in that Bucks game, So that 902 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,320 Speaker 1: would have been huge for the other contestants of the 903 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:36,359 Speaker 1: Bucks would have lost that game. But as always mean, 904 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 1: Chad prevail because we are the greatest of all time. 905 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if I have to check. I don't 906 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: think we've taken Pittsburgh yet. That feels like the smart 907 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 1: play this week. You get Pittsburgh either way in that 908 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 1: tough division, we'll put them on there. And then the 909 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 1: other play, which was risky, would be New England. We're 910 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 1: just there's no other situation. The rest of you. You're 911 00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 1: gonna take us terrible New England team can't do it. 912 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 1: That's terrible. That's a terrible idea. Terrible idea. So you're 913 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 1: head from the man himself. We're just gonna lock in 914 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh first. I'll put out a poll anyway because it's 915 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,120 Speaker 1: fun seeing how people vote. But yeah, we'll lock in 916 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: the Steelers for Survivor. Brilliant. I love it. I totally 917 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 1: love it. Here's our round up right now, Steelers for 918 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 1: Survivor poolled. We love the Lions plus four. We're gonna 919 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: keep an eye in Washington minus three. We're hoping it drops. 920 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 1: We are going to take the Bills off our list 921 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:30,879 Speaker 1: unless we can get them at three and a half. 922 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 1: Right now, there are two and a half, but the 923 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: weather in the Paris of western New York looks a 924 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 1: little too nice for us to feel good at less 925 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 1: than a field goal. We like the Colts, but we 926 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 1: want that at three and a half against the Ravens. 927 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:42,760 Speaker 1: We like the Panthers a plus ten and a half. 928 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:49,360 Speaker 1: The Big balls better than week Chargers minus one and 929 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,839 Speaker 1: a half against against the Raiders. We're hoping that moves 930 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,440 Speaker 1: a little bit more. We also like Miami plus four 931 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: and a half, so I think our five, our four 932 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:05,200 Speaker 1: right now for sure, Lion Panthers Chargers Fins, Lions Panthers 933 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 1: Chargers Fins.
