Now, I don't think the Rams are 33 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 2: very good. There's a lot of rumors swirling. I'm not 34 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: sure what I believe, but I'm on the RAMS plus three. 35 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: Would not be shocked if they want outright.

He's been on 46 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: the pod once before. You know him from ESPN, from 47 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 2: his new betting venture Only Players. Doug Kazarian, Doug, how 48 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: you doing? 49 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 3: Man? Good to be with you, man, I know the 50 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 3: life gets in the way, especially you with a family, 51 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 3: but you know, we don't communicate enough that I was 52 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: thinking about when you reached out for the pod, I 53 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 3: was like, gosh, I've just fallen off the grid so 54 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 3: much with so many people, so I'm really psychosic to 55 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 3: chop it up for a little bit. 56 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you'd like to ruffle some feathers in the 57 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: gambling space, shall we say? You had an awesome hit 58 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: around the NFL Draft. Was it two years ago or 59 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: three years ago? 60 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 3: Maybe? 61 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: With that. 62 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 2: Tell the audience what that one was again? 63 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 3: I yeah, it was an NFL Draft prop And so 64 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 3: basically you know when the betting space was even newer 65 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 3: back then, because right it was twenty twenty one and 66 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 3: legalization started at twenty eighteen, and not many people knew 67 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 3: that I had this betting background because I had done 68 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 3: Sports Center, Conventional Sports Center, and conventional sports talk radio 69 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 3: ESPN for so long that man, you thought I was 70 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 3: just like a talking head that pivoted to the betting space. 71 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 3: But I was like, no, I've been you know, I 72 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 3: had a bookie in high school and like then, I 73 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: had worked in Vegas for seven years before that, and 74 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 3: you know, I had kept my connections and things like that. 75 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 3: So coming back out to Vegas with ESPN, it was 76 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: great because I could talk betting, bet myself and get 77 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 3: you know, lean on my betting team and my sources 78 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: and all my connections in the space. But yeah, there 79 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 3: was a draft prop and it was just a perfect storm. 80 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 3: You know, we talk about it all the time with 81 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 3: the draft, how there's sometimes tweeterers in terms of positions. 82 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 3: And there was a guy named Tyson Campbell, who NFL 83 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 3: fans kind of know who he is with the Jaguars now, 84 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 3: but he was climbing draft boards that week, so a 85 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: week a week to go for the drafts. The drafts 86 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 3: on a Thursday, so starting like Friday before his for example, 87 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 3: his over under at CIRCA went from sixty two and 88 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 3: a half to forty six and a half, then like 89 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 3: thirty eight and a half, So was over under kept moving. 90 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 3: So you know, he was a cornerback and played, you know, 91 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 3: but he was tall, and so what happened was the 92 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 3: over under moved. But other indexes don't necessarily move as well, 93 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 3: and he was in a he was in a index 94 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 3: bet of safety. And so we see this more with 95 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 3: pass rushers, Like some guy's a linebacker and he projects 96 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 3: as a pass rusher and he's an edge rusher and 97 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 3: things like that. You play a certain position in college, 98 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 3: but that doesn't necessarily translate over to the NFL. So 99 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 3: I noticed on the Monday night of the draft week 100 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: that he was listed in a safety index and he 101 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 3: was one hundred to one, much like so many people 102 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 3: are because they had a minus money favorite. It was Mowrigg. 103 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 3: Woodard was supposed to go to the Raiders. He's out 104 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 3: of TCU and like the middle of the first round, 105 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 3: and then there was another guy out of I believe 106 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 3: you see f for Notre Dame. There's two guys and 107 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 3: then it was everyone else was like one hundred and one. Well, 108 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 3: he's a cornerback, not a safety technically, but he was 109 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 3: projecting as a safety like three months out when they 110 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 3: made the index bet and they just never fixed it. 111 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 3: So what happens in a lot of these is so anyway, 112 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 3: So I bet a bunch at him at one hundred 113 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 3: and one. I was able to get down at the 114 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 3: Kiosk machine at nine and they didn't. This is over 115 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 3: like two and a half hours. By the way, they 116 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 3: could have moved the odds, they just didn't. And whether 117 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 3: that's personnel issue, like I didn't really care. 118 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 2: Did you bet it at one place or multiple? 119 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 3: So no, I have Blagio and Aria. So I talked 120 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,119 Speaker 3: about it, and I talked to my my main betting 121 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: partner is a huge draft gurus, so we were talking 122 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 3: some more about it, and I was like, you know, 123 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go back and bet more and just kind 124 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 3: of went all not all in, but I bet a 125 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 3: few thousand because it was like such good value and 126 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 3: I had so many positions by then on the draft. 127 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 3: I do well in the draft every year on the Draft, 128 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 3: and I think it's surfaced since then is really tough 129 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 3: for odds makers because it's information driven and it's not 130 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 3: a sport where it's just like this point spread and random. 131 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 3: It's you can be so wrong with your original line 132 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 3: post right. Just even the year that Trey Lance it 133 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 3: went from like plus four hundred to minus three hundred 134 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 3: back to plus money. There's such volatility in the movement 135 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 3: based on like one tweet or one comment or one 136 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,239 Speaker 3: podcast by mel kiper Jr. The built in buffer hold 137 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 3: percentage for the house doesn't offset how wrong they can 138 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 3: be because aside from like maybe Week eighteen or preseason, 139 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 3: you don't see line moves in the NFL like this weekend, 140 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 3: you know, quarterback change from an adult in de Bright. 141 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 3: It's only gonna move like a point. It's not gonna 142 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 3: go from minus seven to plus seven. But that doesn't happen. 143 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,559 Speaker 3: We see it in the NBA tonight with both Joel 144 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 3: Embid and Paul George out, but it's gone from like 145 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 3: two and a half to three, like this is like 146 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 3: minus five hundred, like you know, plus three it's just 147 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 3: nuts and Trayvon Walker like he was like a field 148 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: bet one of the books out here about a month 149 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 3: out and then the end of being the number one pick. 150 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 3: So that's where like the players have an advantage and 151 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 3: the operators. Let's face it, the oddsmakers are just not 152 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 3: that good at it because they don't put in the 153 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 3: work and they don't do as much work as the 154 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 3: betters do because it's they have a lot of other 155 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 3: stuff on their plate as well. 156 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we've had a lot of gabblers come on 157 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: the pod and talk about getting banned at certain casinos 158 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 2: in Vegas. I don't think as much offshore they do banning. 159 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: But when you hit that at Blagio, were you then 160 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: banned from going in there and placing draft bets? 161 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 3: No, So it's an MGM property. So I am at 162 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 3: like six books right now. I can only bet like 163 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: five dollars on the app a couple of them. I 164 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 3: can go in person and bet more like a regular 165 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: straight wager amount. So it's just like they make people 166 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 3: do that because it's time consuming. People really don't do that. 167 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 3: There's others I can at all. I just it's just 168 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 3: annoying and it is what it is. But that's what 169 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 3: people need to understand. And by the way, I end 170 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 3: up winning two hundred ninety seven thousand on that Tyson 171 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 3: Campbell situation. 172 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that written about in the vase. 173 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 3: So many crazy things had to happen, like a mugick 174 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 3: woodard had to fall, and then there had to be 175 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 3: no other safeties, and then the corner like he was 176 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 3: like the eighth corner taken. And it just so happened 177 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 3: that Urban Meyer had recruited amount of high school back 178 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 3: when he was at Ohio State. And then Meyer's now 179 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 3: the coach of the Jags. So if it wasn't Meyer, 180 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 3: the Jags, like another safety would have gone because like 181 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 3: another safety went like three picks later. So probably the 182 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 3: true odd should have been like twenty five to one, 183 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 3: thirty to one. But that's like those are the odds 184 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 3: in an index when you have a minus money favorite 185 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 3: and he's like the fifth long shot. 186 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 2: Or whatever, so it has incredible hit. 187 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 3: The we're pro you hear a lot like, oh well, 188 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 3: those buildings on the strip aren't don't go up because 189 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 3: you know the sport, they're up because of the casino. 190 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 3: So the whole percentage, the whole percentage is quite low, 191 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 3: especially in Nevada like other states. Obviously betters aren't his experience, 192 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 3: but it's like four and a half percent. And I 193 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 3: talked to a Buddies and Odds maker. I go, what 194 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 3: would you what would the whole percentage be if sharps 195 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 3: could bet what they wanted within reason, Like they'll take 196 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 3: a sharp bet some books somebody can't at all, and 197 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 3: then they'll adjust and then it's like within reason there's limit, 198 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 3: and he goes, it'd probably go to like three percent, 199 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 3: and I go, okay, And then what if like harlays 200 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 3: were never invented, Like what if no one had any parlays? 201 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 3: And he goes, probably zero percent. So like that's why 202 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 3: the DraftKings of the world that like the it's really 203 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 3: like it's it's not like the math isn't as clean 204 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 3: as it is. And like the Rolett wheel, Right, the 205 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 3: Relett wheel math, you're getting certain payout, you're getting even 206 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 3: money on red or even money on black, and the 207 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 3: house is getting the other color and two greens. Okay, 208 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 3: Like that math is inarguable, right, the Relett wheel, it's inarguable. Right, 209 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 3: like the the the the craps table, Like we know 210 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 3: the math of the dice blackjacket's not quite as clean, 211 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 3: but we know the math for the most part, right, 212 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: So in sports, there's just a wider range of outcomes, right, 213 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 3: It's just not as simple as these x amount of 214 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 3: numbers on a rolet wheel. So if you know what 215 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 3: you're doing to an a certain extent, or if you 216 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 3: just have a good season right, then you can make money. 217 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 3: And it's not that rigorous, especially like softer markets like 218 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: the WNBA and things like that, like the house, Like 219 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 3: they don't pay these odds makers a ton of money. 220 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 3: Like the smartest guys are on for the most part 221 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 3: or on this side of the counter, so it can 222 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: be done. Now. They're really good at like bookmaking for sure, 223 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 3: like they're experts. They're more experts at bookmaking than they 224 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 3: are like odds making, like they know how to like 225 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 3: a lot of their job titles are manager at risk 226 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 3: and they're good at bookmaking. They're good at like anticipating 227 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 3: certain sharp money like Tuesday of NFL week, how they 228 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 3: know where the sharp money is going to be, Like, 229 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 3: they're really good at bookmaking. To be an originator, a 230 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 3: line originator and post a line that no one else has, 231 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 3: like maybe a Summer League game like wimmin Yama's props 232 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 3: or something like that, there's no market for that pick. 233 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 3: That's really hard. Or to create a prop bet on 234 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 3: something that hasn't been created yet like I don't know, 235 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 3: Judge versus Otani in the World Series Homers or whatever 236 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 3: that is, Like line origination is hard, but that's the 237 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 3: advantage we have is they have to put up a 238 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 3: menu of a million bets and we can sneak in 239 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 3: and pick one and that's why they're getting plus one, 240 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 3: ten or whatever. So beating the number is not like 241 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 3: thoroughly impossible, especially because there's so many smart people out 242 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 3: on the betting space. There's so much information out there, 243 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 3: The analytics are out there. So if you've been doing 244 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,559 Speaker 3: it a long time, hopefully the scar tissue and the 245 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 3: pain I've you know, learned the hard way over the 246 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 3: years has taught me a thing or two. But that's 247 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 3: why these books limit certain people's because it's not just 248 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 3: like printing money like it is slot machines or you know, 249 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 3: some of the card games in the casino floor. 250 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, so, I you know, are you at the point 251 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,599 Speaker 2: where you know you mentioned WNBA and I see you 252 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 2: tweeting about the WNBA finals? Major League Baseball? Are you 253 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 2: where do you rank NFL. 254 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 3: Week to week? 255 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 2: Like Sunday games, Obviously everybody loves them. Everybody spends a 256 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 2: lot of time watching them. It's it's tough to have 257 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 2: a big edge in these and you do the contest 258 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 2: I'm assuming, right. 259 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, So last year I think I basically had my 260 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 3: best NFL season ever. I finished fourteenth and Circle Millions 261 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 3: fourteenth in Westgate. And that's the thing. You don't know 262 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 3: when you're gonna have your best season, so you want 263 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 3: to be in these contests. Now, am I a lifetime 264 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 3: sixty five percent better in the NFL? No? This year 265 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: I've actually crazy. I'm up like forty something units. I've 266 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 3: done well live waging, and this is all kind of transparent, 267 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 3: like we've post everything and everything's through our you know, 268 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 3: app and stuff. And I want to get the betting 269 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 3: space to a space where it's not just some guy 270 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 3: babbling what he's doing. It's like everything's tracked and all 271 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 3: this stuff. Like I was actually looking into it and 272 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: I still haven't really fully vetted it. But like you know, 273 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 3: like the Ernst and Young certifies the NBA draft, right, 274 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 3: oh yeah, yeah, not like a draft generator company, but 275 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 3: they put their brand on the NBA. So like I 276 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 3: would love to get my Mike my uh, you know, 277 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 3: records confirmed or validated by ernstin Young or something like that. 278 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 3: We can get to it like we're really in our infancy, right. 279 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 3: This is oh, certainly pop half of the first inning 280 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 3: of legal ized sports betting. 281 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 2: What waite? 282 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 3: Isn't there? 283 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 2: And again I didn't get an invite to this. I 284 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 2: don't know if you're involved, but isn't there some I've 285 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: heard mentions of it of a contest in Vegas with 286 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 2: some of the perceived sharp NFL gamblers and they track 287 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 2: I guess their best three picks. I think it's maybe 288 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 2: a Las Vegas newspaper or website. 289 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 3: Do you know what I'm talking about? Well, every there's 290 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 3: always been like newspapers and contest things like I'm a 291 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 3: I'm in a contest with v sin through Circa where 292 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 3: there's twenty five professional andy kappers have all been invited. 293 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 3: I've been in it three straight years. Yeah, I finished 294 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 3: top eight. That's why I got invited back each of 295 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 3: the last two years. You have to pick seven sides 296 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 3: their totals college and NFL against. That's it. 297 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: That's the what I'm talking about. 298 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 3: Somebody who's been on noon on Friday the circa lines 299 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 3: neon on Friday instead of like a stale line that 300 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 3: has to come out Wednesday likes. You know, some of 301 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 3: these NFL contests are yeah, I mean I'm you know, 302 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 3: I'm ninth place or something. Right now. I only won 303 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 3: one best bet, but you know, like I was in 304 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 3: first place with like three weeks to go a couple 305 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 3: of years ago, the first year of it. But it 306 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,599 Speaker 3: happened like it. 307 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 2: But doesn't that kind of fit your bill of shouldn't 308 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 2: like Ernst and Young validate the picks. Doesn't that count? 309 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 3: I've done well in contests, Like two years ago, I 310 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 3: had two top five finishes in the William Hill College 311 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 3: Football contest one fifty fifty eight thousand dollars. It was great, right, 312 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: I two my five entries finished top five. I was 313 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 3: very close, Like first place was one hundred grand. I 314 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 3: was like I had like one last drive by wake 315 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: Forest game was crazy. So, but like, contests are just 316 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 3: sort of one aspect of sports betting, right yeah. And 317 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 3: then the whether it be the content space of podcast 318 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 3: TV shows right right? You know, written columns that's just 319 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 3: you know, one bet, best bet of the day, Like 320 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 3: no one makes one wager same amount, right, there's futures. 321 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 3: So what I did with my companies, I wanted to 322 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 3: simulate the sports betting experience, so like I wanted to 323 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 3: calculate and tally units on on futures in game, pre 324 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 3: game props, all this stuff where I can demonstrate, like 325 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 3: like I can't tell you how many people DM me 326 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 3: and saying what do I do? I have this eight 327 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 3: leg parlay, like what's and it's awesome, but like, but 328 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 3: I think that's where I'm flattered by people know that, 329 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 3: Like I know how to like figure that out, right, Like, 330 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 3: and that's stuff I want to do with you know, 331 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 3: we have a subscription service now, but we want to 332 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 3: evolve the sports better. That's our hope, right. And I 333 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 3: was talking to a guy at the dog park randomly 334 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 3: because he heard me finishing up a phone call, and 335 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 3: he was like, hey, I'm a poker player. I don't 336 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 3: know much about sports, but like how do you do this? 337 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 3: And he basically got me to think about it in 338 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 3: a different ways, like how do you make someone a 339 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 3: better sports better? And I'm and I'm just thinking, like, 340 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 3: you know, it's a great point because like the first 341 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 3: three things I would say are undoing bad three bad habits. 342 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 3: It's like, you know, the betting content is betting space 343 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 3: is so limited right now, if the content space, then 344 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 3: it's like the taut space, and like that's it, right, 345 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 3: There's so many other parallels from other industries you can 346 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 3: cross over, right, So, like we're doing a lot of 347 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 3: stuff kind of like golf instruction. Right, you don't just 348 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 3: learn how to hit one shot. The guy you want 349 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 3: your golf coach to like teach you how to you know, 350 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: help your you know, prove your stroke, your swing, and 351 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 3: then you can, you know, practice on your own and 352 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 3: do things. So like I'm created sort of a you know, 353 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 3: a flow chart or whatever where like I do individual 354 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 3: zooms with guys and things like that where I can 355 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 3: teach people like to how to undo and stop the 356 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 3: bad habits because that's really how I did it. You 357 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 3: just get hit over the head enough times you learn that. 358 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 3: Like that's the best thing. I mean, just a simple 359 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 3: question like ask, you know, they need to know what's 360 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 3: the better number in an NFL game? Is it minus 361 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 3: two and two and a half minus one twenty or 362 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 3: minus three plus one hundred? Like you just got to 363 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 3: know it's minus two and a half plus you know, 364 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 3: minus one twenty. Like, so it's just stuff like that, 365 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 3: Like there's an educational component to a lot of this 366 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 3: stuff rather than just like hey, take the Packers minus four, 367 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 3: my game of the year, pay me whatever, nine ninety nine. Like, 368 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 3: there's so many bet are things to do and to 369 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 3: evolve the space, and you just have to create the 370 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 3: infrastructure and then hopefully enough people are do it and 371 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 3: then I need to be you know, marketed and do 372 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 3: all that stuff. But that's what we're trying to do 373 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 3: a big picture. 374 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 2: So I would ask you you said, there's two levels 375 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,479 Speaker 2: to it. There's the content space and then there's the touts. 376 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 2: Which do you think you technically fall in? Because I think, well, 377 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: I want to make it. 378 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 3: I want to do like three, four, five, six, I 379 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 3: want to have like eight, you know, a bunch of 380 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 3: different lanes, right, Like that's the whole point. I'm trying 381 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 3: to evolve this space into a world that's beyond this 382 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 3: like app A and B concept. It's like, okay, so 383 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 3: let me back up. 384 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 2: So who And this is a tough one because like 385 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 2: who is saying there's content and touts? Is that like 386 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 2: the theme among the gamblings the. 387 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 3: Tout world has existed forever, like the gym vice world 388 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 3: where you get people picks and stuff like that, right, 389 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 3: and then you sell it and then there's packaging like 390 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 3: that's just existed since the beginning of time. I mean 391 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 3: that's existed, and I would imagine the Wall Street world 392 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 3: right there. It's like boiler room tactics and things all 393 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 3: along those lines. Right, there's financial analysts, and then there's 394 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 3: like the content space, and there's different forms of the 395 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 3: content space. Right, there's podcast TV, but there's no other 396 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 3: sort like like poker pros. About five ten years ago, 397 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 3: I had heard and I know some that started doing 398 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: individual private lessons that there were CEOs and all these 399 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 3: people who do these high you know, they're like successful businessmen. 400 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 3: Instead of playing golf, right, they also do poker charity 401 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 3: events or just play poker every every Wednesday or every 402 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 3: other Wednesday with the guys, and they wanted to get 403 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 3: better at poker. So you can there's webinars on this stuff, 404 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 3: and there's YouTube channels you have to pay for to 405 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 3: just get better. Because obviously there's a million permutations with 406 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 3: poker in terms of like you know, the raising and 407 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 3: all that. Like, there's so much technique involved. It's like 408 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 3: kind of like golf. Right, you can have side hill 409 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 3: downhill live. It's not just hey, hit one hundred and 410 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 3: fifty yard shot. So in poker, like there's so much 411 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 3: nuance to how many other people are in the pot, 412 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 3: how much just left in your stack, the bidding, the raising, 413 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,679 Speaker 3: all that stuff. So in sports there's so much different 414 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 3: layers to this as well. So I started to think 415 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 3: about with poker pros and they're getting hired at a 416 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 3: high rate by a few experts. I have people I 417 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: work with who are high end betters, and I can 418 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,959 Speaker 3: help them evolve and they can glean some wisdom and 419 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 3: I can put together lesson plans and shared screens on 420 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 3: zooms and do all sorts of stuff. And I also 421 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 3: they have access to me too, so like on a 422 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 3: discord set, Like they don't have my some of them 423 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,439 Speaker 3: don't have my cell, but they have my like discord 424 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 3: so we so they can ask me anything at any 425 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 3: time during throughout the week, during games and they're like, 426 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 3: hey this is going on, or hey I bet this 427 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 3: on my own, Like I'm doing that, Like what do 428 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 3: you think? So there's learned experiences like I've I've taken 429 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 3: golf lessons, There's millions of times I've texted my golf 430 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 3: guy like, hey, I shot this today, but I could 431 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 3: have done that, you know what would you? You know, 432 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 3: so there's always in your world too, where people there's 433 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 3: it's basically a consultant, right Like you can create and 434 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 3: then you create knowledge, build infrastructure where people can you know, learn. 435 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 3: It's like going from a yellow belt to a brown belt, 436 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 3: purple belt. You know. It's that kind of concept where 437 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 3: you can, you know, grow as a better if you're 438 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 3: new to this space or you're it's turning twenty one 439 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 3: and you want to help him, and there's all sorts 440 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 3: of ways to do this besides like the taut world 441 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 3: and then listen to this podcast. 442 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 443 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: the nation.

So Right Angle 449 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 2: Sports releases their picks right and unless you're getting the notification, 450 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 2: the alert right before they release it, you're more than 451 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 2: likely going to miss their release. At I don't know. 452 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 2: Let's just say six and a half and then boom, 453 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 2: it's at seven and you now and can no longer 454 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 2: get the best number and you're shifted. So you might like, 455 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 2: that's the only problem I have with Well, I've never 456 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: paid for a tout service before, right, So I've. 457 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 3: Talked to people like that who do influence the market, 458 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 3: the few out there, and I don't want to put 459 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 3: anyone on spot or bad. So I said, you're doing 460 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 3: it as service here, like you have to just charge 461 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 3: more and if it ends up being three people who 462 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 3: get your service and they cover the same nut, Right, 463 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 3: it's ten people at one dollar, right, you need to 464 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 3: charge five dollars for two people. Right, it's just that 465 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 3: to get the same ten dollars. Whatever it is. Right, 466 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 3: So I'm with you. Now, the NFL is a liquid 467 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 3: enough market where those numbers will come back at times 468 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 3: like I know what RAS has played and the market 469 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 3: will sometimes come back. 470 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 2: But that's a good point. The market will come back. 471 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: But here's the thing. How long do you have to 472 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 2: sit staring at the screen to no it'll come back? 473 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 3: Like they'll send out a release like Wednesday and like 474 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 3: Sunday morning and might come back. But you're right. If 475 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,959 Speaker 3: you're not doing it instantaneously, it moves because the books, 476 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 3: like we talked about, flag those accounts. So I'm of 477 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 3: the belief that you have to do things in a 478 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 3: certain way and have a price point, but then you 479 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 3: also have to have a value add like I don't. Yes, 480 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 3: everyone who subscribes my stuff knows what picks I'm doing, 481 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 3: and I do him in a time, we weigh whatever. 482 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 3: But there's so much more to it. I just think 483 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 3: that's one aspect to it. All. 484 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 2: Right, So let's take a line from this week. Let's 485 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 2: do a week eight line. Let's go Cincinnati and Philly. 486 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 2: So it looks like we're recording this Thursday, Wednesday afternoon. 487 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 2: It looks like there's some Eagles money maybe coming in, right, 488 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 2: So it was two and a half. I'm seeing some twos. 489 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 2: I see a one and a half at FanDuel. So somebody, 490 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 2: let's just say Joe Smith, who is an advantage gambler, 491 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 2: he's plus ev, he's multimillionaire, he gave out to his service. 492 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: Let's just say he did Eagles plus two and a half. 493 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 2: All of a sudden, the line comes down. But you 494 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 2: had a meeting, you had lunch with your wife. All 495 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 2: this stuff you missed it. It's not a one and 496 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 2: a half. It's like and that. I don't know how 497 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 2: you saw that other than like just saying, you know what, 498 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 2: I'm not going to have a life. I'm not going 499 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 2: to hang with my kids or coach my kids or 500 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: I just it's it's a really tough life. Like, be honest, 501 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 2: how many hours a day are you looking at the screen. 502 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 3: So it's a great point. The one thing I do 503 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,719 Speaker 3: say is I'm a bachelor, and I know you are 504 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 3: yourself included who are successful in their careers and successful 505 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 3: at home. So it's like two full time jobs, right, 506 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 3: like to be a parent and obviously you you know, 507 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 3: have a spouse who helps with the parenting and does 508 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 3: their full time parent as well. But if I don't 509 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 3: have that, like I can do a lot of the stuff. 510 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 3: But I also built a TV studio in my house, 511 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 3: so we're doing a lot of content with We're going 512 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 3: to announce some like any day now. But we have 513 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 3: like a bunch of deals. We've had to get the 514 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 3: contract sign everything, but we're going to be a third 515 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 3: content provider of betting content so we can do talkbacks 516 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 3: we can do all these like different Tetris pieces. So 517 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,479 Speaker 3: we're in the content space as well, so like I mean, 518 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 3: you're old enough, we wear the same agent. Roughly, it's 519 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,120 Speaker 3: like remember the old the Motley Fool, like they would 520 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 3: do sort of like a daily newsletter and it still 521 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: exists now, but it's just in a form but like 522 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 3: Wall Street Journal, right, like they have educational and they 523 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 3: have analytical stuff and they have a paywall as well, 524 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 3: and there's so that's kind of what we want to be. 525 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 3: And now they can be a third party, like partner 526 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 3: up with another outlet, so I can do betting content 527 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 3: that some of it's behind on our paywall site, but 528 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 3: some of it's just different. It's like, hey, I'm just 529 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 3: telling you what I'm hearing and it's kind of interesting content. 530 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 3: Hopefully that we can create for other outlets and do 531 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 3: other stuff because people need betting content. But they're slowly 532 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 3: realizing this is my other beef with the betting space 533 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 3: that you know, the invisible hand is going to always 534 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 3: work itself out, but people are realizing that they don't 535 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 3: have the horses to do this stuff in house. Like 536 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 3: there was this this mass likeush of just giving everyone 537 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 3: the title of betting analysts, which I was just like 538 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 3: so random, Like it's just like, how did how's you know? 539 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 3: Whereas like if you're watching CBS before kickoff on Sunday mornings, 540 00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 3: like Bill Cower's there, and like all these people have 541 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 3: credentials and it's just like this talking he Like I 542 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 3: think the biggest mistake the betting space. And I don't 543 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 3: know if ESPN did it or who did it first, 544 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 3: but just I think people should have literally have been 545 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 3: as simple as just giving him a betting personality or 546 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 3: betting talent or just something that wasn't analysts, because I 547 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 3: think all these people get on the defensive and they're 548 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 3: trying to be so technical and they're trying to all 549 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 3: be the same person with their plays. It's just like, 550 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 3: just be like a betting talent or betting personality and 551 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 3: then they can do some of the gimmicky social media stuff. 552 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 3: I mean, I think Cousin sALS like the great example. 553 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 3: He's really funny, really knowledgeable about sports. He doesn't take 554 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 3: himself too seriously. He's not sitting there ever, describing the 555 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 3: value of a half point. He's just talking sports through 556 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 3: the lens of betting and he's a great listen because 557 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 3: he's funny, and he's you know, he has great anecdotal 558 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 3: comments and he's just himself right now, he's allowed to 559 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 3: do that because he's more well known and all this stuff. 560 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 3: But a lot of these networks are making a mistake 561 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 3: just giving like seven people or five people whatever it is, 562 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 3: everyone's betting analyst. They're all trying to the same thing, 563 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 3: and it's just a bunch of monotonous and it's not 564 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 3: interesting to the masses, and that's why it's not working 565 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 3: on the network level for the most part. 566 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I this is gonna sound bad. I 567 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 2: don't really watch any of the pregame shows. I just 568 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 2: I can't get into them. I feel like, yeah, listen, 569 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 2: you and I are in this space. We pay attention everything. 570 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 2: Are you learning anything from many of those guys? Are 571 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,719 Speaker 2: they giving out game him? 572 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 3: Right? 573 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 2: So I'm not in on that, But like I mean, 574 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 2: but for instance, my process. So the first two bets 575 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 2: I made for week eight, and both the the lines 576 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 2: have gone both against me early this week, right, So 577 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 2: I saw Packers Jags. I took Packers minus four and 578 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 2: a half and I took Niners minus five after their 579 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 2: loss to the Chiefs against the Cowboys coming off the buy. 580 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 2: Now the Niners one probably could bite me in the ass. 581 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 2: If Deebo Samuel I figured I didn't know he was 582 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 2: that sick, and then money in the hospital, I'm like, 583 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 2: oh shit, well that's not great, Jennings. I expect him back. 584 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 2: We know why you's done. But I expect the Niners 585 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 2: to bounce back. And I think schematically Kyle Shanahan's a 586 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,360 Speaker 2: nightmare for Mike Zimmers defense, even if they get Parsons back. 587 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 2: But the line's going against me. The other one is 588 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 2: the Packers. I just I don't believe in this Jaguars defense. 589 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 2: I bet against them multiple times this year. They are 590 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 2: total garbage. However, is there a letdown going on the road? 591 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 2: But both lines have gone against me, But I'm already 592 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 2: pot committed to those. I'm just curious for your process. 593 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 2: Are you in early in the week better? And what's 594 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 2: your move if the lines go against it? 595 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 3: It just depends, So I think taking a step away, 596 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 3: I think you've kind of pinpointed in a lot of 597 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 3: ways why the NFL can be beatable for more casual 598 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 3: sports betters, because it's very math driven, right, So much 599 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 3: like in the early two thousands with the poker world. 600 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 3: Similar timeline, the math guys came in to the betting 601 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 3: world and started being the shaping of the market. So 602 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 3: the eye test betters, if you will, they it's like 603 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 3: the moneyball concept, right, the old school scout like they 604 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 3: have an advantage because the math guys think one way 605 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 3: and they can't help themselves. They really can't. So like 606 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 3: I was, for example last weekend, I was really surprised 607 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 3: the Jaguars lines des as it did because usually there's 608 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 3: going to be buy back at some key numbers. So 609 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 3: with your example of the packers, like it won't go 610 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 3: that high, I don't think like they can't help themselves 611 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 3: for taking the ugly dogs, like they can't help themselves 612 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 3: on the PA Panthers now that Bryce Young is going 613 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 3: to start, like at some point they're going to take it. 614 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 3: But what happens is the market just is stubborn like that. However, 615 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 3: we do see blowouts, we do see one sided game, 616 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 3: so that's why the sharps have a really tough time. 617 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 3: And in the NFL, the game plans are very hard. 618 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 3: This is what made Belichick so hard for modelers because 619 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 3: one week he'd run forty five times. The next week 620 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 3: he'd throw forty five times. So I don't care what 621 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 3: the stats were in the past. It's really hard to 622 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 3: do projections for a guy like that because the pass 623 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 3: almost didn't matter with him. It's about he would choreograph 624 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 3: a game plan and find your weaknesses. And they always 625 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 3: said he'd make you play left handed, and you know, 626 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 3: things like that. It's really hard to project. Like I 627 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 3: used to say this about the SEC Championship game, but 628 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 3: you know this is prior to draftings and fando. It 629 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 3: was really hard for these sportsbooks to do props on 630 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 3: Georgia and Alabama wide receivers because they hadn't played in 631 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 3: the competitive game all season. It's like they would play 632 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 3: three quarters tops against That was when Tennessee was weak 633 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 3: and then Vanderbilt was weak. So it's like you take 634 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 3: stats of DeVante Smith and some of the Jalen Waddle 635 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 3: against like the first half in like maybe the half 636 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 3: of the third quarter against Vandy, and you're trying to 637 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 3: do props against Georgia, Like I mean, doing a total 638 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 3: in that game is hard enough. How do you do 639 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 3: like props? So it's really that's why so the NFL, 640 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 3: some teams will lay it lay down, like you said, 641 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 3: the flatdown spot and all this stuff, so it comes 642 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 3: I think all that means it's really hard for the 643 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 3: math modelers and it's just kind of open season and 644 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 3: the market may not be that tight in the NFL. 645 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 3: Sure we're gonna have upsets like we did the first 646 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 3: x amount of weeks, but it's starting to even itself out. 647 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 3: We kind of know what the deal is with like 648 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 3: the Browns, although now they're aging quarterbacks, and we know 649 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 3: where some of these teams are. Like, we just had misconceptions, 650 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 3: like we thought the Jags were good because opening week 651 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 3: they really should have beat the Dolphins. Yeah, but they 652 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 3: only lost by three in a fluky outcome. And it's 653 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 3: been downhill since. So we had to get hit over 654 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 3: the head a couple of times chasing what we saw 655 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 3: the week one with Jacksonville. And now we realize just 656 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 3: how bad they are and we're not going to overreact to, 657 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 3: you know, a London win over New England. 658 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 2: So the Jags, I know everybody's going to point to, oh, 659 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 2: well the Jags, they were just in London for two weeks, 660 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 2: are going to be exhausted. There's basically no data that 661 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 2: backs that up. I mean, it sounds good, right, and 662 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 2: I'm sure other people will say it, but there's no 663 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 2: data that says coming off two weeks in London and 664 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 2: blah blah blah. But some stuff that's out there, like 665 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: Jordan Love just destroys zone defenses like you cannot zone 666 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 2: Jordan Love. He will shred you. He's arguably the best 667 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 2: quarterback the numbers say against his own. All Jacksonville does 668 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 2: is play zone and I'm sure you saw Cam Robinson 669 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 2: with the concussion and then he's got the long flight 670 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 2: back from London. I'm guessing he's a no go this week. 671 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 2: The left tackle and you know, we know the Packers 672 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 2: are top ten in pressure rate and they don't blitz lot. 673 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 2: This just nothing lines up for Jacksonville here, So I 674 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm just curious, Doug, what are people seeing 675 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 2: that you'd see this? 676 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 3: You brought this up. So let's go to the Jordan 677 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 3: Love thing. Are you talking more from a props standpoint, 678 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 3: a Packers team total or just the minus the points? 679 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 2: Roger, I start with the side because I'm I don't 680 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 2: see any prop totals out yet, do you No? 681 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 3: But you kind of know what it'll be roughly, right, Yeah, 682 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 3: And so even with the strong betting angle like you have, 683 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 3: there's gonna be some variants. Like I was heavy on 684 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 3: Gino Smith last week against the Falcons. Right, when Gino 685 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 3: has a clean pocket, he can thrive, and we saw 686 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 3: that against the Lions. We saw that in some other 687 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 3: games as well. He's been he's been awesome. But remember 688 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 3: they had a defensive touchdown then they had the big 689 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 3: lead they were protecting. So I lost on his overpassing yards. 690 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 3: He only had like two hundred and ten or so, 691 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 3: but he had, you know, that huge touchdown right before halftime, 692 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 3: So you had that, you went over one and a 693 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 3: half passing touchdowns. But I guess what I'm saying is 694 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 3: the variants. Even when the matchup is favorable and they 695 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 3: play well, sometimes the game script can go a certain 696 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 3: way where things don't play out, you know necessarily like 697 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 3: they quote unquote should And that's the same thing that 698 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 3: happens in the Packers games, right. You know the first 699 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: four weeks, all these Sharps were fading the Chiefs because 700 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 3: they were losing the box score and they were barely covering. 701 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, they barely beat the Ravens in Week one. 702 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 3: Lively's toe was on the line, but they were also 703 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 3: up ten and if they had just gotten a first down, 704 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 3: they were playing sort of prevent victory a little, so 705 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 3: they could easily won by ten. So there's a different way. 706 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 3: And then they didn't look that great in some other games. 707 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 3: A Chargers game, they were, you know, just messing around, 708 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 3: playing with their food, and they won by exactly seven. 709 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 3: Could have easily lost the game. Yeah, so a lot 710 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 3: of people just get kept fading the Chiefs. But again, 711 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 3: these other teams, and this is where I think being 712 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 3: a sports fan like yourself and knowledgeable about sports and 713 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 3: more than just being a fan, I mean you're connected 714 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 3: and you know this stuff, Like you know, the Chiefs 715 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 3: are playing the long game and they're getting Teams are 716 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 3: allowed to change and get better. That's why, frankly, a 717 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 3: lot of these math modelers in the NFL used last 718 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 3: year's stats as a baseline. So even this juncture of 719 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 3: the season, even week twelve, like last year's stats are 720 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 3: part of their projections because they want larger sample size, 721 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 3: and so they use a lot of the individual stats 722 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 3: because teams change. Obviously, some player personnel. 723 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 2: But that's tough Chiefs Doug, right, I mean, Pacheco's gone, 724 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 2: Rice is gone. Kelsey doesn't even look like he looked 725 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 2: last year. He doesn't like. The Chiefs are really befuddling 726 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 2: to me because I will maintain Doug and you can 727 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 2: feel for it. I don't think they're a great football 728 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 2: team right now. I know they're undefeated and the defense 729 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: is unbelievable, but offensively they don't scare anybody. 730 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 3: I don't know what they deal with Mahomes. They do 731 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 3: with Mahomes, don't they scare some people. 732 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 2: I don't look at the receivers. He's trot now, like honestly, 733 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 2: I mean the Raiders. You know this Raiders is interesting. 734 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 2: Let's talk about that game so instantly. This moves up. 735 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 2: Chiefs are huge favorites. They just dismantle the Niners. But 736 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 2: of course some people want to mention. Hey, remember in 737 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 2: the offseason when the Raiders did that voodoo doll thing 738 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 2: and making fun Ofatrick Mahomes with the Kermit the frog 739 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 2: whatever it was, and Mahomes said, oh, well, we'll worry 740 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 2: about that later in the season. Again, I don't know 741 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 2: how you factor that into your handicapping. But Patrick Mahomes 742 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 2: has had a down year. I think he's tied for 743 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 2: the league leading interceptions. If ever, there was a game 744 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:16,439 Speaker 2: where he's just going to be like, Oh, I'm going 745 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: ham on you guys, We're going to go for forty. 746 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 2: It feels like maybe this is the spot, unless you 747 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 2: don't think Casey's even capable of that. 748 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 3: I do think they're capable. Yeah, I mean they look, 749 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 3: they kind of manhandled the Saints in that one game, 750 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,919 Speaker 3: and they had that pick on the goal line too. 751 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 3: But that Saints win isn't as impressive as we thought 752 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 3: it was at the time. No, yeah, I would say 753 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 3: I was looking at the Raiders plus ten and then 754 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 3: the whole Kermit the Frog thing he got me off 755 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 3: of it. I do. I backed it in where it's 756 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 3: like I don't have to bet the game like in 757 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,360 Speaker 3: my Pickham league. In my Pickham leagues, I'll take the 758 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 3: plus ten in my contest, I have to come up 759 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 3: with five. 760 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 2: So I kind of figure it out the toughest part. 761 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 3: But we have no buys this week if I remember correctly, 762 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 3: so that we have no. 763 00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 2: Buys and no London game, which is nice. 764 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, So look, it's been hard man. Like last week, 765 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 3: I had like two sides. That that's all I did, Like, 766 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 3: I just didn't like the card. I had a million. 767 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 2: Let me guess you loved Seattle, right. 768 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 3: I did that team total and over, but then I 769 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 3: lost the game over too, so I split that. 770 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I had two and three in the contest that 771 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 2: the two I loved were layups automatic, and then the 772 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 2: other three just kind of flekey stuff. And then like 773 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 2: an idiot, I went against Mahomes with the Niners, and 774 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,320 Speaker 2: you know, let me ask you. Deebo Samuel practices all week, Okay, 775 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 2: no restriction is nothing, He's fine, and then he shows 776 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: up to the game sick, plays three plays and is 777 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 2: out like the people expecting sanfre and like myself to 778 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 2: do well in that when obviously Debo's a huge part 779 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 2: of the game plan and then poof, he's gone after 780 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,280 Speaker 2: three plays, like just logistically, oh my gosh, that's a shot. 781 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 2: He's like your team leader. He's the first guy out 782 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 2: of the tunnel with Trent Williams. I mean, and he's 783 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 2: got pneumonia. You can't even play. You know, it's bad 784 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 2: when Deebo Samuel can't get on the field like that. 785 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,760 Speaker 2: To me was just that's brutal. 786 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 3: But some of these into you don't let that affect you. 787 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 3: You just got to let that go when well, okay, two. 788 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 2: Weeks ago, Michael Pittman, how about Michael Pittman two weeks ago, Hey, Wednesday, 789 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 2: looks like he said it toward ir Sunday catches the 790 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 2: game when he touchdown pass? What the fuck is that? 791 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 3: I don't know, man, that was a really outlier situation. 792 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 3: But the NF, look, there's no there's no teeth to 793 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 3: the penalty. Like I mean, the NFL is trying to 794 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 3: get them to do it, but there's no punishment. So 795 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,240 Speaker 3: like like Cam Rising, like there's no punishment. Oh gosh, 796 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 3: Kyle Whittingham not doing anything with that injury. Now finally, 797 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 3: you know, a week ago they finally announced that he's 798 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 3: done for the year. But every week it was like 799 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 3: panda watch, And so what are you supposed to do 800 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 3: as a gambler, Yeah, when it's just this, you know, 801 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 3: is he or is he not playing? And but there's 802 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,959 Speaker 3: no ramifications or consequences. So I don't blame the coach either. 803 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 3: If he's that Gamesman should help. Gamesmanship helps with the 804 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:46,720 Speaker 3: opposing teeth. 805 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 2: Let me ask you two more Chargers Saints. So this 806 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 2: is one of those weird spots. We've seen two of 807 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,399 Speaker 2: them this season where one team's coming off extra rest 808 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 2: from Thursday, and that would be the Saints they got destroyed, 809 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 2: and the others coming off a short rest the Chargers 810 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,840 Speaker 2: on one night football right. 811 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 3: The other one was Giant Seattle, right, yes, yeah, and 812 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,760 Speaker 3: Seattle got magnified like no other and the other pining 813 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 3: quarterback for the Saints. 814 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 2: Well that's so that's the only hang up. But as it, 815 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 2: just because I'm a moron, I was like, you know what, 816 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 2: let me just go ahead and grab the Chargers minus 817 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 2: seven and a half. If they find out that there's 818 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 2: no car and Olave's not back. We know Shaheed's done. 819 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 2: We don't know about Taysom Hill. Like the Saints are 820 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 2: just a mass unit and we know they can't stop 821 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 2: the run. I mean the Eagles read everybody runs all 822 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 2: over them. I I mean Kareem Hunt came off the 823 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 2: sofa and ran for a buck twenty or whatever. I 824 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 2: see harball just slow twenty to seven kind of game, 825 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 2: twenty to six, whatever it is. 826 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 3: But I think it could be a shootout if it's 827 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 3: car or even if it's Jake Hayner, I think it 828 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 3: can be a shootout. 829 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 2: Why are you reading shootout? 830 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 3: What? Because the Saints are going to give up points 831 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 3: right away. I know what you mean by Harbor is 832 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 3: going to want to run on them. But you can 833 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 3: have chunk plays as well, and I think the Saints 834 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 3: have enough weapons Kamara and still like if you just 835 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 3: you see a competent quarterback, rattlers not good like if 836 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 3: Jake Hayner played, I think they can put up a 837 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 3: lot of points. I really do. 838 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 2: Interesting so, but we don't know who the starter. 839 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 3: Is because of the rest advantage and things like that. 840 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 2: Like you said, have you fired on this game at all? 841 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 3: No? No, this is a card I hate now. I 842 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 3: hated last week too and ended up being you know, 843 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 3: prophetic on that because I didn't do well, like I 844 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 3: didn't like the card, didn't like anything. I usually do 845 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 3: my best in October November because the math guys get 846 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 3: sort of solidified, and I think there's situational handicapping like 847 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 3: you were talking about. Sometimes the cards is not that favorable. 848 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 3: Like my favorite play this week is the Jets and 849 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 3: Patriots over forty. 850 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 2: Oh dear goodness, gracious the Jets. I can't that's my 851 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 2: team and I can't even watch them, Doug, So don't. 852 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 3: You forty one? Like, don't you think the offense is 853 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 3: like needs to get right? Like don't you think they 854 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 3: need a breakout sort of performance and the Patriots defense 855 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 3: is the perfect kind of you know, prescription for that. 856 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 2: I do wonder and again this no math involved. Mayo 857 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 2: goes and calls out his team as soft. Belichick then 858 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 2: goes on somewhere and says, you can't call your players 859 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 2: offt that's that's not right. I don't know whether it's 860 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 2: going to be a mutiny in the locker room or 861 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 2: it's gonna wake guys up. So I think nothing. 862 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 3: Do you think that like they're capable of playing better 863 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,479 Speaker 3: if they tried it harder. I just don't think they're good. 864 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 2: So we jet the Jets. They could be down four 865 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 2: guys in the secondary, and Drake may has actually done 866 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 2: kind of well. 867 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,759 Speaker 3: Well, I think I think the Patriots, well, that's why 868 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 3: I like the over. I don't want to lay it 869 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,760 Speaker 3: with the Jets. I think we're gonna see some points. 870 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 3: I don't think the Patriots call them soft, call them great, 871 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 3: Like I don't think their defense is good, so they're 872 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 3: like it's like telling me if I you know, I 873 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 3: cannot dunk, so I go try to dunk and I 874 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 3: don't get there, and it's like you call me soft, 875 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 3: Like I'm not gonna all of a sudden be able 876 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 3: to dunk right because I'm mad, Like I don't think 877 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 3: they can play better, because I don't think they're good. 878 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 2: I think I saw a stat though they they've had 879 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 2: seven games and seven different offensive line combinations, like they're 880 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 2: just a mess, trading judeon bar Moore's stuff, like they 881 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 2: don't have any I. 882 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 3: Thought they gave up their those defensive guys. But but 883 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 3: the when when Brissette was playing, the opposing teams knew 884 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 3: that he couldn't throw the ball. So now that Drake May, 885 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 3: I mean frankly, he'll turn the ball over and that 886 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 3: helps it over too. So like the the he's a 887 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 3: the line got bet up. I think from thirty eight 888 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 3: to like forty two, and then there's buyback, like I 889 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 3: think this thing could have like fifty to fifty five points, Like, 890 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 3: I mean, you need to get right on offense. And 891 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 3: it's another week of practice with Devonte Adams and things 892 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 3: like that well. 893 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 2: Wayne Adams has a hamstring. He may not go this 894 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 2: week because the. 895 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 3: Show next week totally banged up. So very yeah, let 896 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 3: me ask you, I think those guys can score on him. 897 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 2: So like the old school guys you referenced earlier in 898 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 2: the podcast, they will probably look at this spot and see, ooh, 899 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 2: divisional rematch, okay outdoors Automatically, the divisional rematches historically go under. 900 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:50,720 Speaker 2: I don't have the ats in front. 901 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 3: Of me, but and we think that's right. 902 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 2: We have one that. 903 00:40:56,680 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 3: I think it's the straight mat is using output and 904 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 3: data points from when Jacoby Brissett was playing. So I 905 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 3: think those low scores, those inept offensive outputs went into 906 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 3: that fact. And I just think it's a completely different team. 907 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 3: I wouldn't even consider the offensive numbers from those weeks 908 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,280 Speaker 3: that Brisset was the quarterback. I just won't even consider it. 909 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,320 Speaker 3: It's a completely different team as far as I'm concerned. 910 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 2: So that that's your favorite total, is there a side 911 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 2: that you've kind of narrowed down? 912 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 913 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: the nation.

I don't think it's that I don't 918 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:44,720 Speaker 2: think it's that hard. 919 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 3: I mean, voters should not be laying that kind of points. 920 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 2: But that was what everybody said last week against the Saints, 921 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 2: and it's like, no, no, no, look at the matchup. 922 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:54,280 Speaker 3: It's the Saints. 923 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 2: They're not right. 924 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 3: Carolina's bad and Bryce Young's bad and that's like my 925 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 3: I think that's go on my tombstone down the road. 926 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 3: I was the only person just from the from the 927 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 3: highest hilltop I can get is Bryce Young is not 928 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 3: an NFL quarterback? 929 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 2: Did you? Uh well, I guess they're not out yet. 930 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 2: But prop numbers on defensive touchdown for the Broncos gotta 931 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 2: go high. I mean, honestly, it feels like Shortan's probably 932 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 2: gonna get one the pressure. Yes, I mean, this is 933 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:21,879 Speaker 2: just tough. 934 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 3: But let me I will say, we've seen quarterbacks get 935 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 3: better a little bit when they've been able to see 936 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 3: the game from a different angle on the sideline and 937 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 3: just you know, whether it's Dalton's is saying, hey, the 938 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 3: small bites, take what the defense gives you. Things like that, 939 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 3: Although he was terrible last week, but maybe he's gonna 940 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 3: be a little bit better because he has a high 941 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 3: football like you, and maybe there's upside there. He's just tiny, 942 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 3: that's my issue with him. I never questioned his his 943 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 3: you know, aptitude from a from a reading defenses thing, 944 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 3: but he's regressed in the NFL and he's just he's 945 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 3: not an NFL quarterback. He's just too small. It's just 946 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 3: that simple. But I would look there. There's no like 947 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:00,840 Speaker 3: dogs that are jumping off the page for me. 948 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:03,800 Speaker 2: You would look where Denver or Carolina? 949 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 3: Denver, Yeah, Denver. I think the Jets plus seven's worth 950 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,399 Speaker 3: a look as well. I just mind plus seven the Jets. Sorry, 951 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,320 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. The Patriots plus seven ill Patriots interesting at home. 952 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 3: But the Jets just need this game too much. It's 953 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 3: like too important to them. 954 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 2: How about this one. Let's go to Bears Washington. You've 955 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 2: got the injury thing to Jaden Daniels. So there's a 956 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 2: report that Daniels did not practice today, and I think 957 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 2: they said we'll see Friday. But if you read Ian 958 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 2: Rapaport's tweet, he wrote, it's trending as if Mariota will 959 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 2: get to start. Now you can read the tea leaves 960 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 2: in that and say, oh, it's gonna be Mariota. They 961 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 2: have a huge divisional matchup with the Giants next week 962 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 2: that that means more than this Bears game. And I 963 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 2: I mean, again, Doug, this is just kind of a guest, 964 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 2: but I don't think Daniels is gonna go Remember the 965 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 2: RG three stuff, he had, the injuries, they forced him 966 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 2: out there, it ended horribly. I think that Washington is 967 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 2: cautious here, and I'm on the Bears here. 968 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 3: I would go the other way. I just think it's 969 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 3: going to be a strong effort game from Washington. Bears 970 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 3: have won three straight. I don't think they're that good. 971 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 3: The problem is Washington defense isn't good, so the Bears 972 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,800 Speaker 3: have capitalized on facing the bad defenses on their schedule 973 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 3: of the last three weeks. Yeah, but Washington's just like 974 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 3: the fourth one. Uh so that's a little bit. I 975 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 3: don't think their coaching staff's really good, so I don't 976 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,359 Speaker 3: know if they're taking advantage of it. Unless they had 977 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,240 Speaker 3: a bunch of injuries they had to get healthy. Obviously 978 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 3: that the buy can serve as a huge asset, or 979 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 3: it can disrupt a win streak. Too. I like this 980 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 3: Washington team, but it's just Jane Daniels, Like I do 981 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 3: think a guy like Mariota at this juncture of his career, 982 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,399 Speaker 3: like there there could be like he could be much 983 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 3: better now, Like there is reason for guys to get better. 984 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 3: And if it's just one of those things where you like, 985 00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 3: look at Flacca, I mean he was good before, but 986 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 3: so much of this game is mental and iq I 987 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 3: mean Adon Manning's last year in Denver, right, And so 988 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,359 Speaker 3: if Mariota has gotten better and just learned, like Sam 989 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,400 Speaker 3: Darnold's a great example, right, He's just become more knowledgeable 990 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 3: for the position, and he can anticipate more things than 991 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 3: he could before, and therefore he's not reacting, he's anticipating. 992 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 3: And so if the game is slowing down for a 993 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 3: guy like Mariota, there's no reason he can't be like 994 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,359 Speaker 3: a decent QB if he's got obviously the mobility as well, 995 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 3: and he doesn't have to do much if he's got 996 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 3: good weapons and just you know, kind of just it's 997 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 3: all the cliches of football. Make sure every drive ends 998 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,319 Speaker 3: with a kick and blah blah blah. But I'm I'm 999 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 3: a big believer, whether it be college football within a 1000 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 3: season or NFL within a season, or or like people 1001 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,359 Speaker 3: are allowed to get better, Like yes, we have our 1002 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 3: first impressions, but that doesn't mean it's different. Like you 1003 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,719 Speaker 3: don't get to this level of sports, whether it's the 1004 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,399 Speaker 3: NFL or and be at whatever by being like a chump. Right, 1005 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 3: So if a guy you know, yes, for every we 1006 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 3: have the JaMarcus Russells of the world, and we have 1007 00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 3: some other busts, but usually you have a competitive That's 1008 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,879 Speaker 3: why teams that get blown out you want to bet 1009 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,760 Speaker 3: on in the next week is that week of practice. 1010 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 3: They're buttoned up their competitive dudes. They're elite athletes, Like 1011 00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 3: you're gonna get a good effort or at least preparation 1012 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 3: all week. So I do believe that Mariota could be 1013 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 3: a lot better at this juncture in stam Donold versus 1014 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:15,839 Speaker 3: like three years ago, four years ago. 1015 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,359 Speaker 2: You did reference the Bears getting healthy off the by 1016 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 2: So in week six in London they were down three 1017 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 2: defensive backs and looks like Stevenson is back, Brisker will 1018 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 2: have cleared concussion protocol, and their secondary has been pretty 1019 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 2: damn good. Now, as you alluded to, they played crap quarterbacks, 1020 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 2: but you put Johnson Byered Brisker Steven that that's a 1021 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 2: pretty great combo. And I, I mean, I feel pretty 1022 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 2: good about about my bear side two and a half. 1023 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 3: Not great, I mean agree that Daniels probably isn't playing. 1024 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 3: Like I'm with you on that. 1025 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 2: I guess last one, Doug, you can laugh. So the 1026 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 2: New York Giants go to Pittsburgh Monday night. It is 1027 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 2: the biggest spread post Ben Roethlisberger that Tomlins laid. The 1028 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 2: other two big spreads they did not cover. I can't 1029 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 2: believe this, but I think I'm going to be backing 1030 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,280 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones. I think on Monday at football. 1031 00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 3: I'm with you in terms of like, oh lot, No, No, 1032 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 3: I'm not betting. I'm just saying, like I understand where 1033 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,760 Speaker 3: you're coming from. My biggest concern is just the happy 1034 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:26,480 Speaker 3: feed against that pass rush. Right yeah, well yeah, he's 1035 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 3: played well in a couple of games, and frankly, like 1036 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 3: the Browns have a decent you know, can put pressure 1037 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 3: on the quarterback and then they almost beat the Eagles 1038 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 3: and the Commander's game he played while they should have, 1039 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 3: but that's a bad defense. The Cowboys have a bad 1040 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 3: defense and they couldn't even get the end zone. I 1041 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 3: I wonder if like that offense can just be completely 1042 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,359 Speaker 3: disrupted by a by a Steelers team, and that that 1043 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 3: defense man, Like I was shocked they lost the Cowboys, 1044 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,760 Speaker 3: Like I like the Cowboys made that Cowboys completely outplayed 1045 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 3: them that game, frankly, and other than that, like this 1046 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 3: defense is a disruptor. And but I'm not in a 1047 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:02,440 Speaker 3: rush to lay six and a half. I still think 1048 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 3: Russ is like so so although he looked okay, he 1049 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 3: throws at the there's going to be an adjustment, like 1050 00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 3: the rust, like some of the short hops have to 1051 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 3: go away. 1052 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 2: You think, well, I'm not in a rush to back 1053 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 2: the Giants, but I need five in the contest that 1054 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 2: I've only got right, No. 1055 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:18,319 Speaker 3: I know, I look, I Trice look. I'm also like 1056 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 3: handicapping the NBA and all this crazy stuff. I'm looking 1057 00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 3: at a few things in the NFL. The over I'm 1058 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:26,879 Speaker 3: surprised has come down a little bit after going up 1059 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 3: a lot that New England Jets game, Like that's the 1060 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 3: only game that I think is a strong bet for me. 1061 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,240 Speaker 3: I'm warming up to the Packers for sure. Like, but again, 1062 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 3: but this talks about the market. The market has the 1063 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 3: buy back at five and now it's bought back from 1064 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 3: four and a half to four. Why because they can't 1065 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:45,439 Speaker 3: help themselves. It's a math again, it's the math thing. 1066 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 3: They're like, well, the line should be this, I made it, this, 1067 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 3: I have to bet it. And in their defense, they 1068 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 3: make money doing this, right, like, they are profitable, and 1069 00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 3: so they have to stick to their math because they're 1070 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 3: going to to go six and four, six and five, 1071 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 3: and it's gonna, you know, whatever it is, right seven 1072 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 3: and five, and we're just trying to go four and 1073 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 3: three and two in a contest or maybe just two 1074 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 3: and one on bets and we have our rightea. So 1075 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 3: while we may be right on that Packers game, they're 1076 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 3: not good. They're not about to deviate from their math 1077 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 3: and start doing something that has been working for so long. 1078 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 3: So like, think about it, like them t blackjack, right, 1079 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 3: like they know if the count is this, they're just 1080 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,600 Speaker 3: gonna do it. And you're sitting there like, why would 1081 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 3: you hit twelve against a four or something, And it's like, well, 1082 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:36,440 Speaker 3: the math said, whatever it is, you know, So I 1083 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 3: think they're gonna do it their way. But that's the 1084 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,839 Speaker 3: beauty of the NFL. Like that's the one nice thing 1085 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 3: is the sharp money keeps the market from getting too 1086 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,359 Speaker 3: crazy unless there's a significant injury with quarterback or something 1087 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,960 Speaker 3: like that. But like, there's gonna be there's gonna be 1088 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,240 Speaker 3: resistance on the Panthers. Just watch there. You know. Obviously 1089 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 3: there was an adjustment when when Darnold's officially out and 1090 00:49:57,719 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 3: now what's gonna happen. So it's already come back. It 1091 00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 3: hit ten and a half, I think, and now it's 1092 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 3: solid ten everywhere. Maybe it didn't hit ten and a half, 1093 00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,360 Speaker 3: but it's it's a solid ten everywhere. And I just 1094 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 3: think as soon as a book, you know, because the weekend, 1095 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 3: the weekend's gonna come and the public's gonna come in heavy, 1096 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:13,839 Speaker 3: and then they're going to try ten and a half. 1097 00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 3: But the sharps will bite right away because that's just 1098 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:19,839 Speaker 3: how they are. Yeah, right, and it works for. 1099 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 2: Them only players. Go ahead, check that out. Very cool. 1100 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:24,839 Speaker 3: Listen. 1101 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 2: A lot of people leave ESPN and it's like, oh man, 1102 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 2: they're going to get lost. Doug is crushing it and 1103 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,759 Speaker 2: continued success with my friend hopefully will you be at 1104 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 2: the super Bowl or nowhere? 1105 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:35,760 Speaker 3: Uh no, I mean I was obviously here in town 1106 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 3: last year, so I have no plans this year. I 1107 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 3: probably should be looking into that and doing that because 1108 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 3: at least I'll go for the week. Is you know, 1109 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,439 Speaker 3: I'm wearing the entrepreneurial hat during all this as well. Yeah, 1110 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 3: I'm learning a lot about distribution and sales and just 1111 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 3: the mechanics now. Fortunately, my business partner has like basically 1112 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:57,360 Speaker 3: my career from a sales standpoint, so he's done network 1113 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 3: sales and all this stuff, so he understands all these 1114 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:03,239 Speaker 3: acts and m's for you know, online videos and all 1115 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 3: this stuff, but CPMs and all the distribution lingo. But 1116 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 3: I've learned a lot and talking with more, like we 1117 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 3: had a really big call today and like I understand 1118 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 3: what they want from a content standpoint and in a 1119 00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 3: minute video and district so I'm learning a lot and 1120 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,399 Speaker 3: how the sausage is made, which I think has made 1121 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:22,719 Speaker 3: me better on air. We'll see, but. 1122 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 2: For years get not. 1123 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,800 Speaker 3: Necessarily better hate together, but it's it's a slow grind 1124 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 3: for sure, And there's obviously like you wonder and you 1125 00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 3: miss you missed the bells and whistles of an ESPN 1126 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 3: for sure, and just being back on campus and interacting. 1127 00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 3: Like I loved. Campus life is just be working with 1128 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:41,840 Speaker 3: a bunch of smart, cool people like you know that 1129 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 3: from Fox. But the entrepreneurial life is cool too, And 1130 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 3: I can go anywhere whenever I want and you know, 1131 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 3: do whatever I want and maybe go back home to 1132 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,919 Speaker 3: LA and stuff like that. So everything has its trade off. 1133 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 3: But you know, this has been something that you know 1134 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 3: a lot of people do this. A lot of people 1135 00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 3: do this conventionally in their own industries. Right, You're your work, 1136 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:01,239 Speaker 3: core life for a while and then you go do 1137 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,240 Speaker 3: your your your you know, your launch, your own your venture. 1138 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 3: So it's it's just not commonly done in the TV 1139 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,719 Speaker 3: space or whatever. But it's been fun.
