Speaker 1: We're sitting here having some fried chickens and chocolate martinis. Well,

8
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,959
Speaker 1: we've been everyone in the studios having fried chicken. You're

9
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: having a grilled chicken salad because I know, my boy,

10
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: we've literally been sitting here for fifteen minutes, and I

Speaker 1: This is what we're gonna do, black Jack, You and

14
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 1: I we gotta choose five games for the West Gate

00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: Las Vegas Super Contest. We're gonna win one point four

16
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: million dollars. Every one of these picks is crucial to

17
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: our success because last week, yikes, I believe the kids

18
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: call it fuggle. I think that's what the kids in

19
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: two thousand two called it. I'm not sure what they

20
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: called today, but yeah, it was bad. It was really bad.

21
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: I mean, we knew we had a bad slate when

22
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: we wrapped the show and we had you know, the

23
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: Jags the Cardinals, and those were the two best of

24
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: the week for us, and then we had the Jins. Yeah,

25
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: it was, it was. It was a messy week and

26
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: proved to be that for us on Sunday. So, you

27
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: know what, whatever, we'll get back up. When you say

28
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: it out loud like that, you look back and you think,

29
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: you think, really, you know what it was? For me?

30
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: It was when I saw the graphic that was up

31
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: at on Twitter at the Favorites pod go follow it

32
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: and I saw the logos of all the teams we

33
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: had picked, just one after the other, Jaguars, Cardinals, Dolphins, Jets.

34
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: That's when it really sunk in for me that we

35
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: really fucked it up. I think the metaphor for that

36
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: week is when you start the evening looking at a

37
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: bottle of Smyrnoff and could dive in dark chocolate and

38
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: think killer fucking idea, this can't go wrong, cannot go wrong,

39
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: and the next morning you're like, nothing about that made sense.

40
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, That's kind of what I'm hoping for here.

41
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: I'm hoping we can get back to our find our

42
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: groove again because we were sidetracked last week and now

43
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: now it's back to business. Baby, It's time to get

44
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: serious grooven. Let's say hello to the best part of

45
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: the podcast. Let's Georgina one one last week, just from

46
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 1: my Beautiful He's finally grew wings too close to the sun.

47
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: I really like the icarous reference she called this beautiful

48
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: voice she did. She's right, She's always right. I do

49
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: feel like we've grown pretty close to her. Yeah, we have.

50
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 1: It's strange. I I feel very close to a woman

51
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: I've never met or spoken to in person. So, yeah,

52
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: she was in New York with Gabe, but she was

53
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: under the weather, so she was she was out of commission.

54
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: She is the best. Gave is So. Gabe Goodwin U

55
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: creator and mastermind of these podcasts. The Mats are not

00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: going to be happy that I said that the hipster Mats.

57
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: But he's going to be more upset you called him

58
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: a hipster. He gave is So skiing over his tips

59
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: with Georgina, it's true story. It's a good thing. He uh.

60
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: He wiped her up before she met me. Well, you

61
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: never know. One one never does. Some people are impossible

62
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: to resist. Listen. The other thing, UH that stars to

63
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: Regina is we've asked you guys to review the show

65
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: every way possible to move up the rankings in the

66
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: Apple podcasts and one of the ways you gain the

67
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 1: system is to get reviews on the podcast. And if

68
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: you review the podcast, it's a very good chance to

00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: have to pick between Chat picking all the underdogs and

73
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: black Jack picking all the chalk. Split the difference and

74
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: you'll be okay, is my advice. Five stars, five stars.

75
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: Thank you for the five star review. Um, you know

76
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: he's not wrong. It's really not your square. I have

77
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: another review I pulled myself off of iTunes from UH

78
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,239
Speaker 1: in Love with Nikki. Nikki is apparently a lucky lady.

79
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 1: Five star review, five stars, Um, two sentences. Chat is

80
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: not funny love the pod that was my favorite? How

81
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: did my kids get into the Apple podcast. Well, if

82
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: your kids are in there, maybe you want to find

83
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 1: out who Nikki is because one of them is in

84
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: love with her. Listen. You don't know what's happening with

85
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: this social media these days. The good news is, um,

86
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: my twelve year old doesn't listen to the podcast. If

87
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 1: he did, uh, he would now find out that my

88
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: wife and I steal his phone every night after he

89
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: goes to bed and look at all of his texts.

90
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: Does your fifteen year old listen to the pod? No? Okay, alright,

91
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: good because if I was gonna say if he did,

92
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: your twelve year old is about to find out. No. Listen.

93
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 1: If my kids are leaving reviews in the podcast like that,

94
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: I'm not funny you think they're actually listening to the podcast.

95
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 1: The next time, I don't have to listen to the

96
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: next time anybody in my family. The next time anyone

97
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: in my family takes an interest in anything I'm doing

98
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: will be the first time. The other day, you left

99
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: your kid at a Starbucks over the weekend. I did.

100
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: You left him and I had to go. I had

101
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: to go. I had been waiting a long time. We

102
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: had to go do our periscope at Action Network HQ.

103
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: We do it every Sunday before the games, the only

104
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: live pregame show four Gamblers. We revisit this chemistry. And uh,

105
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: it was running late. I had gone to get sandwiches

106
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 1: for the family. The woman behind the counter took a

107
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: really long time. Zach wanted to go get some Starbucks.

108
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: I said, go ahead. The line of Starbucks was really long.

109
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,799
Speaker 1: I had the sandwiches, I was done, I was ready

110
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: to go. I had to get back to you. I

111
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: had seven minutes to get there, and I said to Zach, like,

112
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: I gotta go. So rather than texting me, hey, can

113
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,359
Speaker 1: we push five minutes, you left your son at a

114
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: Starbucks to go do a periscope with me. I mean

115
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: when you say it like that, it sounds like I've

116
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: lost perspective right, a little bit, like I've lost my priorities.

117
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 1: It was only a couple minutes away, and my wife

118
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: went to get him like when he was ready. I mean,

119
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: and that's fair. I mean, listen, the Starbucks in Grantwedge,

120
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: Connecticut is really nice. It's very safe. I wouldn't be

121
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: that concerned either, you know, I promise you no one

122
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: is stealing a fifteen year old boy it's like the

123
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: last thing in the world anybody wants to take. Wow, Zack,

124
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 1: I think you're cool, so um, you know, even if

125
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: your dad thinks nobody wants you. I don't know what

126
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: to say here, I know what to say. Let's get

127
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 1: to those games. Let's get back on track. Can I

128
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: just say one thing? Yes, the other day I was

129
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: going to say something to my wife and before I

130
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: even said it, she just put her hand up and said,

131
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: don't And I'm like what, She goes, I know what

132
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna say. It's going to be annoying. Don't even

133
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: And and that gave me the opportunity to completely lie

134
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: and say. All I was gonna say is that I

135
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: think this is turning out great. But in fact I

136
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: was going to say the opposite. You were going to

137
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: say something really annoying. But all I got to be

138
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: were supportive. We had that exact moment last week twice.

139
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: Can you guys keep please reviewing the podcast so we

140
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: can read it and we can continue to sky the

141
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: rocket up the iTunes rankings. Please? Thank you. Can we

142
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,719
Speaker 1: get to the games Tennessee at Indian Atlas Colts by

143
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: two Colts Titans, Oh, come on? Come on, no, no, no,

144
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: one reason, one reason, it's reasons. It's Andrew Andrew Luck

145
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: and Luck. Andrew Luck is back. Okay, this isn't he

146
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: looks better. He looks okay. Andrew Luck is playing the

147
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: football he played two and a half three years ago.

148
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: He is playing outstanding. Markus Mariota is still a week

149
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 1: to week proposition. I like what the Titans have done

150
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: on defense, and I'll give Mike Rabel a lot of credit.

151
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: Their offense has been better than I thought it would be.

152
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: But Andrew Luck is there. That dude is a top

153
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 1: ten quarterback in the NFL right now? Absolutely is you

154
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: want to name nine more? All I did was look

155
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: at you, and I know what that look is. Don't

156
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: don't Now it feels like I'm at home, short home favorite.

157
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: It's your thing, better quarterback. I think the coaches are

158
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 1: pretty even. The defense I've given edge to Tennessee, but

159
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: the offense is is markedly better for Indianapolis Alec Cults.

160
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: I so love the Titans in this game. Titan stink.

161
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: That's an absurd statement. You can be blackjack all you want,

162
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,599
Speaker 1: but Chad is telling you right now that that is

163
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: an absurd statement. You can like the Colts, but this

164
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,959
Speaker 1: I say this to my kids all the time, like

165
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: you can not like something or someone else can like

166
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: something without it having to be the worst thing in

167
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: the world. No, that's not the world we live in.

168
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: That's not Look at our political landscape. You don't have

169
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: to go much further than that. I don't wander on

170
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: one side. The other side is the worst thing that's

171
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: ever been created in all of humanity, just because I

172
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: just want this student to be a space. You've got

173
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 1: the wrong guy in here. If you want to save space,

174
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: we'll make this maybe on what side. I don't know

175
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: if we're gonna come back to it. Second, Georgie Tampa

176
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 1: Bay at New York Giants Giants by one and a half.

177
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: I want to do something that I don't think it's

178
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: ever been done on this show. Give me that point

179
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: and a half. Ever, what is it? I want to

180
00:10:55,160 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 1: give you credit, thank you, because and then I wanna

181
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: give your criticism. Of course, you were all over the

182
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: Giants against the Niners. You said it in the podcast,

183
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: and like you hated myself, you were you were apologetic,

184
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 1: and then you said it again on the talk talk

185
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: at Action Network HQ periscope. You really like the Giants here,

186
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: and you know how I am about the Giants at

187
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: this point, Like, I'm just I don't blame burned, but

188
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: I'm not investing in the Bucks either. Like, why do

189
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: we hav to talk about this game? We should be

190
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: skipping this game? You don't. There is no way you

191
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: like the Bucks so much in this game that you

192
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 1: feel that strongly about it. Well, listen, it's the second

193
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: game off the board for us, so at this point, no,

194
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: I don't. But the case I would make for the

195
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: Bucks is very simple. They can score too many points.

196
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,599
Speaker 1: The Giants aren't gonna be able to keep up with

197
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 1: them offensively. Just here's my criticism. Although Dirk Cutter took

198
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: over play calling duties and that turned out really well.

199
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: Don't you ever apologize for good ideas? You are a

200
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: beautiful baby. Who those are? Guy? You know you do

201
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: not have to apologize. Dark chocolate martinis were a good

202
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: idea for being bold. Dark chocolate martiniz Next game, Next game,

203
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: Georgia Girl Pittsburgh at Jacksonville jack Is Steelers by five

204
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 1: and a half. What are you here? Give it me?

205
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 1: We're going with the jackson I like Jacksonvilles give it

206
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: to me like Jacksonville. We can talk about it. We

207
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: can talk about how on Action network dot com or

208
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: you can download the free free what it's a free app,

209
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: uh and get this story. But our Action Network power

210
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 1: ratings we always compare them to the spreads. The game

211
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: with the biggest delta between our power ratings and the

212
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: spread indicating value is the Jacksonville Jaguars against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

213
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: I think that there is way to listen. I love

214
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers. I got them to win the Super Bowl.

215
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,080
Speaker 1: One of the eight teams I have to win the

216
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: Super Bowlers Shore. He's not exaggerated. That's actually ten. I

217
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: have ten teams. Um. But I will tell you I

218
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 1: like the Jacks in this spot. All right, we got

219
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: a winner. We were we were you know what our

220
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: problem was? We were just a week early on the Jags.

221
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: Last week, we were a week early for needed he

222
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: needed the week to get back. I don't think I

223
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 1: think we were a half early. Yeah, they don't fumble

224
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: the ball and they're tying that game at the least.

225
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: But I agree like that. That's why I don't like Honestly,

226
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: that's why I only the Colts against the Titans. Like

227
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: they should very lucky. I'll give you that. They should

228
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: that team away and they didn't. And uh, I was

229
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: unimpressed by that. Like they that game goes five more

230
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:54,439
Speaker 1: minutes and they lose that game. That's why, that's why

231
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: I don't like him. All right, So we got one.

232
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: We're going with the Jacks again. Oh boy, I cannot

233
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: believe we're starting with the Jacks. Next. Georgie Carolina at

234
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: Detroit Panthers by four. Next. You don't like Carolina, heret

235
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: I like them dramatic wins, not good wins. Okay, but

236
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 1: Carolina has got a week and a half, they got

237
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: extra time to prep and they're off a game where

238
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: they gave up fifty one. They got their ass kicked.

239
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: This is a bounce back spotting the Lions. The Lions

240
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: were waving the white flag. Brother, I think they're done.

241
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: All right. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna beat the

242
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: drum on this one. Georgy Dallas at Atlanta Falcons by

243
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: three and a half. Run and shoot, baby, run and shoot.

244
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: Give me the flat Flacons. Yes, yes, absolutely. The Cowboys

245
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: wildly overvalued after a win last week against the Eagles.

246
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: The Falcons stubbed their toe in the ground against Cleveland.

247
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: This is this is the fact that this is only

248
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: three and a half is a gift lay the three

249
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: and a half. Dallas's offense cannot hang with this Atlanta offense,

250
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: especially at home. No, no way, no way we are.

251
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: We are at the uh sweet spot of overvalued. When

252
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: you get the Cowboys beating the world champions on the

253
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 1: road in prime time and you get the Falcons losing

254
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: to the Browns as big road favorites. When anybody paying attention,

255
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: Chad Melman, you were right about that. That was Chad Milman.

256
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: Jatty Boy Chatster, Millie Monster, Millie Wake bet the Browns.

257
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: Everybody knew the Browns were the right side in that game.

258
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: And anyone who didn't and is now not recognizing the

259
00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: Falcons being discounted is making a mistake by not betting

260
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: the Falcons is the right side here. We got to

261
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,239
Speaker 1: We got the Jags, and we got the Falcons already

262
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: on a really good run with great teams. We can

263
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: count like it. I like it, Georgina, you beautiful English lady.

264
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: What's next? Cincinnati at Baltimore Ravens by six and a half.

265
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: I can't get away from this game fast enough. Listen.

266
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: I think everything you need to know about this game

267
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 1: is the fact that we still don't know who's playing

268
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: quarterback for the Ravens. And Hugh Jackson has signed with

269
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: the Bengals as an assistant coach. Oh man, Oh that's

270
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: the best. And this line has gone up. Yeah, it

271
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: was five and a half when it opened. And and

272
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: the West Gate, which usually is behind the line in

273
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: terms of the movie, is at six and a half. Yeah,

274
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: this is awful. I listen, you can't take the Ravens

275
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: because you know who's under center um and the Bengals.

276
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 1: I think you learned your lesson with the Bengals last

277
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,679
Speaker 1: week for a little while. Yeah, that song you did

278
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: was so good. That song right now, if you haven't

279
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: checked it out, just find black Jack Fletcher's Twitter feed.

280
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: Maybe you can pin that to the top blat Jack

281
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: for the people before this, you know, tomorrow or winning,

282
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: it'll be up there. Yeah, put it at the top,

283
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 1: because that is the best performing video we've ever had

284
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 1: in the history of the Action Network. It is an

285
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: ode to me by you. I'm your inspiration, he is,

286
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: he's my muse. I bring meaning to your life? Are

287
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: we going to do Peter Satara next? Is that where

288
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: we're going? Yeah, little Peter Stara? Alright, alright, maybe we

289
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: could do he didn't he do a duet with Amy

290
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: Grant or something. You could be like the Amy Grant.

291
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 1: I would do it. I know you would, just talented

292
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 1: to Alright, So we're not going to take this game

293
00:17:55,760 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 1: right this next game though, Georgie, George, he's ston at Washington,

294
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: Texans by three. Give it to me, Give it to me,

295
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: give it to me. We're doing this game all over

296
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: this game. Give me your side, tell me, tell me

297
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:18,679
Speaker 1: I like Houston, fuck you, Chad, Chad, Yad, Chad, Chad,

298
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: Jack Black Chad. The Redskins offensive line is missing three

299
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: starters in the going against J. J. Watt and Jadaeveon Clown.

300
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: They're going to get massacred on the offensive line. Alex Smith.

301
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 1: Alex Smith might die in this game. He might die.

302
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: Here's my problem. Here's what I'm struggling with. Their running

303
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: backs like ninety two years old. Here's what I'm struggling with.

304
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 1: Kind of already, put the Redskins and listen, I get it.

305
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,919
Speaker 1: Because the Redskins have outperformed. I mean all expectations, but

306
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: that defensive line against that that offensive line for the Redskins.

307
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 1: No way, man, no way, Alex Smith. Alex Smith should

308
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: be worried his wife meets up the life insurance this

309
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: week because like he may not make it out. Well,

310
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: anybody in this room by my Redskins plus three ticket?

311
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,679
Speaker 1: Anybody got three guys in here, they're all shaking their

312
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: head now. They're all drunk, though, so they might just

313
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 1: be nodding. M h. Maybe I don't want to bet

314
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 1: Houston in this game. I don't really want to either,

315
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: But if I'm going to, I'm taking Houston. Well let's

316
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: skip it. Then skip it. Georgina Oakland at Arizona Cardinals

317
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: by five and a half. I love the Cardinals at

318
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 1: four and a half. I don't want to do this

319
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: at five and a half. I agree with you. I don't.

320
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't lay five and a half with

321
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: that to absolutely no way. I will tell you right now,

322
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 1: this is going to get Although we've got some good

323
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: ones on the back end of this. We got two

324
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 1: games so far. We got the Jazz plus five and

325
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 1: a half against the Steelers. We got the Falcons minus

326
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: three and against the Cowboys. But we are not finding

327
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 1: a lot of games. But we've got some good ones

328
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,199
Speaker 1: coming up. So let's get to the next one. My

329
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: beautiful cup of Earl gray Denver at Los Angeles Charges

330
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: Charges by seven, big big number, big big number. I

331
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: don't know what it is. Maybe you can help me

332
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: with this. I still don't trust the Chargers, and I

333
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: know I should. Isn't that weird? I know I should,

334
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 1: Like they've been maybe the fifth or sixth best team

335
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 1: in the NFL all year. I still don't trust them.

336
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: And Philip Rivers is having an m v P unbelievable year.

337
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 1: Why were we not on the chart? Like we didn't

338
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 1: bet the Chargers in minus ten against the Raiders? I know?

339
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: And I sat there on Sunday morning looking at it,

340
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: like I'll wait till the afternoon, maybe that number will

341
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: drop a little bit, Like was it really going to

342
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: make a difference against the Raiders nine and a half

343
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: into end? I don't know why, but I just don't

344
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: trust this team. It's weird. I think it's just horse

345
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: of habit. Year in and year out, this team disappoints

346
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: and I just can't get past it to trusting them.

347
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm in a hundred percent agreement with you.

348
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: So I'm going to propose something. Let's go against our instincts. Okay,

349
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:23,360
Speaker 1: let's bet the Chargers. We know we have a we

350
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: have a cognitive bias here, right, And like I have

351
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 1: only bet the Chargers in scenarios where like they are

352
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 1: they are dogs or short favorites. The one time I

353
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: went against my instincts on the Chargers was when they

354
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 1: were road favorites against the Browns, and I'm just like,

355
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,239
Speaker 1: this team is good, and they continue to win. They

356
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 1: went on the road and won big against the Seahawks,

357
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: you know, like very they went on the road, demolished

358
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Philip Rivers is having an m v P year. Granted,

359
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,719
Speaker 1: the Broncos defensive line is really really good. They can

360
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: rush the pastor they can give him fits. But I

361
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: think we're making a mistake by just consistently looking at

362
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,719
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Chargers and saying we're walking away if

363
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 1: it's a big number, because like if it was, if

364
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 1: this was the Chiefs against the Broncos, if this was

365
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: the Rams against the Broncos, we wouldn't wait two seconds,

366
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: all right, give me your hand, take my hand. Let's

367
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:35,439
Speaker 1: do this together. One, two, three? All right, that was

368
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: a nice moment, really was That's that's a leap of

369
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: faith we took together. I just jump off. We just

370
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: jumped off the cliff together. Will Fetters should do a

371
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: movie about us. You know what, one may be being

372
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: written that is a sequel, that is a sequel to

373
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 1: fell Me and Louise. I Obviouslyking Turner and Who. But

374
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: how funny would it be if, like Will Fetters, who

375
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: wrote Star Was Born, Who's got a skyrocketing career, friend

376
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 1: of the show, friend of the show, one of the

377
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 1: most talented screenwriters in Hollywood, if he decided his next

378
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: big project was going to be the unauthorized sequel to

379
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 1: Selma and Louise based on You and Me. That's Office

380
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 1: and and the Day New Ma is You and I?

381
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: You and I theoretically jumping off the clip but really

382
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,679
Speaker 1: cliff but really walking to the counter of the sports

383
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: book and betting the charges while holding hands. Yes, yeah,

384
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: I like it. I like it a lot. Everyone in

385
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: the room loves that. I can sense the enthusiasts. You

386
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: are welcome, Will Fetters. We are here to make life

387
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: better for you, But if we don't get our fair cut,

388
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 1: we'll sue the hell out of you. Yeah, we're coming

389
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 1: after you. We're very litigious. That's that's called I p alright, Georgie,

390
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: Philadelphia at New Leans Saints bite enough. I don't know

391
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: that I like it as much as the final two games.

392
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: I would agree with you, but I don't know what

393
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: side we're gonna be on in the final two games.

394
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: I like Philly here, and everyone knows how much I

395
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 1: love the Saints. I have a Saints super Bowl future.

396
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 1: You might only have two. You might you might know

397
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: that I have the Saints at eighteen to one to

398
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. I got him a twenty two,

399
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: and I'm only holding two, holding the Saints and Steelers.

400
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: I got the Steelers in my pool. I think you

401
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: said last week when the Saints were playing the Bengals,

402
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 1: that the Saints were at their pinnacle, that you know

403
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: you were you were over paying for them. I didn't

404
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: think that was the case last week. Credit to me.

405
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 1: I think it is the case this week. I think

406
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 1: after that road win they thrash the Bengals the week

407
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 1: before they beat the Rams, I think this is when

408
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: you're paying the premium to take the Saints Philadelphia season

409
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,880
Speaker 1: is on the line here this z man. I mean,

410
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: if this team drops to four and six, they're done.

411
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: I mean they're they're finished. They're they're not going to

412
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. At four and six, they're out. So

413
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 1: this is it for them. And I don't know whether

414
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 1: they can win this football game, but I am confident

415
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 1: they can keep it within a touchdown. It does seem

416
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 1: like a huge number. It does. It does, And I

417
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 1: think that the Saints at this point this is where

418
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: you get that overvalue. I think this is it because they,

419
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: like I said, they beat the Rams in a game

420
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 1: we all were looking forward to was the top two

421
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 1: teams in the NFC, and then they go on the

422
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: road to Cincinnati and what you feel like should be

423
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,679
Speaker 1: a letdown spot and it's not. They just kicked the

424
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: Bengals teeth in. This is the spot where now you're

425
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: paying too much to take New World. This could be

426
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 1: the blue wave of numbers, Like the longer it goes,

427
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 1: the higher it might get. Yeah, that was pretty good metaphor.

428
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: I thought that. Um, But yeah, I mean, I I

429
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: like Philly here, Like you said, we've got two games

430
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 1: that to be honest with you. I like better coming up,

431
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 1: but I don't know if we're gonna be on the

432
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: same side. How about we put this maybe all right

433
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: right now? We got the Jacks plus five and a

434
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 1: half against the Steelers, the Falcons minus three and a

435
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: half against the Cowboys, the Chargers minus seven against the Broncos.

436
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: Maybe on Philly a plus eight and a half, and

437
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: maybe on the Colts Titans. We're not sure which we

438
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:33,879
Speaker 1: would go on that. My English rose m Minnesota at Chicago,

439
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: Chicago by two and a half. You gotta take Vikings here.

440
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: This is crazy. This is crazy. The Bears are two

441
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 1: and a half point favorites. The Vikings are off of

442
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,919
Speaker 1: by Chad. The Bears have not beaten good football teams.

443
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: I don't care. How do you not? That was my

444
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: j Cutler color? All right? It would have been better

445
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: if you had a cigarette. Have you ever heard that story?

446
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: I told that story on the podcast with Scooch. I

447
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: don't know how much of an oral app there is

448
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: between the Wednesday and Friday shows. I know you don't listen,

449
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 1: did you, Okay? You said overlap? It sounds like oral app.

450
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 1: I thought we were going somewhere else. With this. Maybe

451
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: you've you've drinking like a fifth of vodka during the show.

452
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: I'm trying, all right, tell tell the story. We're flying

453
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: through this thing, So tell this. Jake Jay Cutler at

454
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 1: a urinal in a bar in Chicago. Someone standing next

455
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: to him, It's like, hey, dude, I went to Vanderbilt.

456
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: Jay Cutler stares up at the ceiling and yours. I

457
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: don't care. That's why I love Jay Cutler. He's one

458
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: of my top five athletes. I don't even know. I

459
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: don't even know if he's the guy just so blatantly

460
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: didn't give a ship I don't know, did not care.

461
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: But I respect that. It's I respect that because, you

462
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: know what, there's too many athletes out there that are

463
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: scripted and they just give the canned answers that they

464
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 1: think people want to hear. No, Jay Cutler didn't give

465
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: a damn what you thought about him, and I like that.

466
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: This pick goes against everything I believe in. Like I

467
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: do not believe in betting against short home favorites. Do

468
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: you think Chad don't give me Eatnesota off of Bye?

469
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: Tell me? Tell me? Because why do you think this

470
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: is a better cause? Because Number one, the Bears have

471
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 1: not beat good football teams. You could argue the Chicago

472
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: Bears best game was a loss to the Patriots this year, okay,

473
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: which they had a few flukey plays and that kept

474
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: them in that game. They have not beat good football teams.

475
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 1: The Vikings, on the other hand, are better. Certainly offensively,

476
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: Cousins is better than Mitch Drobiski at this point. Their weapons.

477
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: Adam Feeling is one of the top three receivers in

478
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 1: football this year. Plus they have Stefon Diggs. Plus they

479
00:28:55,640 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: have Kyle Rudolph. Defensively, the Vikings, I don't know if

480
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 1: they're better than the Bears, but they're comparable. That defense

481
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: is still very good. Absolutely, I'm taking the Vikings here,

482
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: and yeah they are off of by the extra rest

483
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: and the prep helps. I absolutely like the Vikings here

484
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: catching two and a half. I would like the Vikings

485
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: minus two and a half, which is realistically what this

486
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: line should be. We're being silly with the Bears here.

487
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 1: You seem fired up because listen, the Bears have had

488
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: a better season than I thought. Credit to them. Okay, Absolutely,

489
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: Matt Naggie has done a great job at head coach.

490
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: Naggi has done a great job at head coach. Drabinsky

491
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 1: has played well when they let him. But here's the

492
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: bottom line, dude. The bottom line is the Minnesota Vikings

493
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: are a legit Super Bowl contenders. I got nowhere to go.

494
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins has a plethora of weapons to throw too.

495
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: They've got experience. I'm going to They've got experience there.

496
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: Head coaches got more experience. This is a team ready

497
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: to roll. They're gonna roll. The Bears are kind of frauds,

498
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: not full frauds, but like half frauds because they don't

499
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: beat good teams. They play him close, but they don't

500
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: beat them. They couldn't even beat the Packers, and the

501
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: Packers stink. That wasn't your best performance. I felt like

502
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: your heart wasn't in And I don't know if we

503
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: can be honest here for a second, a peak behind

504
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: the curtain. I really didn't expect that there. I wasn't

505
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: going there. But you know, when the music plays, you

506
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 1: gotta show up. You gotta perform. That wasn't That wasn't

507
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: gonna be it. You're like a trained seal when you

508
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: hear the music you have you got to step up.

509
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 1: But I wasn't gonna do. You gotta put that ball

510
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: in your nose and roll it around. Right, You're right,

511
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: that's that's kind of what happened there. But no, that

512
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: was not my best effort because there was no thought

513
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: put into that promo. I'm going to give you an

514
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: a for effort and I'm going to go with the Vikings. Yeah,

515
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: you are the I'm feeling of podcasts. You are a gamer.

516
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: I hope this is not your first half fumble against

517
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: the Saints. Um, I know it's definitely not. I just

518
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: hope to be paid like Adam Feeling well as the

519
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: GM of the Vikings. I can tell you that's never

520
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: gonna happen. Figure it out. I'll call your agents, please do.

521
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: Uh My Beautiful Goddess of Tea Time Kansas City and

522
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams rams by three and a half. That

523
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: was good. I thought, Beautiful Goddess at Tea Time, I

524
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: took your your English isms to the next level. You did.

525
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: I'm stealing them back and you know what. You know

526
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 1: what I'm doing here? Play damn music. Play it because

527
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: it's coming here, all right, this is where it's coming.

528
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: We got a game that was supposed to be in Mexico. City,

529
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: all right, they had to move it because the turf

530
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: was too bad. Button. This is a critical game. This

531
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: is the most important clash happened in a hundred and

532
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: six years since the Titanic ran into an iceberg. It's amazing.

533
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what the most important factory. No one

534
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: is talking about it, but you know it and I

535
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: know it. Jack the most important factor in this game.

536
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 1: He's big red. And I'm not talking about Andy Reid

537
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 1: with his tool belt. I'm talking about the greatest offensive

538
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: lineman to ever suit up in the NFL. Mitchell Shorts say,

539
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: now he's protecting Pat Mahomes. He's gonna keep him clean.

540
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald's not sniffing him. And the chiefs role Mitchell

541
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 1: Schwartz better known better known as the better looking, more

542
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: talented younger brother of Jeffrey Isaiah Shorts, and I was

543
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: gonna say, better known as the co author of the

544
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: best selling book Eating My Schwartz. My description was better.

545
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: It's more flattering that one you brought. Well, that's where

546
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: it was supposed to be. You did a nice job there.

547
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 1: Thank you. Did you write that before? No, I don't

548
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 1: write anything before. You just sort of you just got

549
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 1: an idea, like it's in your head and you let it.

550
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: I have a mental bullet points that I want to hit,

551
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: and how I get there is anyone's It's a mystery

552
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: to everyone, including myself. So I usually don't know what

553
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say until it comes out of my mouth.

554
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say something here. Yeah, I think the Kansas

555
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: City Chiefs are the better team too. You know why,

556
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 1: defense has been getting better, much better. It's been getting better.

557
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: And you know what defense isn't getting better? You know

558
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: what defense is not figured out how to rush the

559
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: pastor despite what Dante Fowler did last weekend the Rams.

560
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 1: Do you know who's not playing that well at defensive

561
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: tackle that isn't named Aaron Donald Dominican, Sue. You know

562
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: who isn't that great of a cornerback right now? Marcus Peters.

563
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: Do you know you just nailed that one. Andy Reid

564
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: is gonna pick called Marcus Peters all game long. Pick.

565
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters is gonna wish, he is gonna wish he

566
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: could play Sean Payton. He's gonna wish he could get

567
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 1: into a verbal joust with Sean Payton because Andy Reid,

568
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 1: He's gonna come on, So why don't I get any

569
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: fucking music? I got a whole fitting. It's too late

570
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: the moments over. Any read is gonna pick on Marcus

571
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 1: Peters and he's gonna come in quiet. He's not gonna

572
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: know what angle the ball is coming front. What's all

573
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 1: I got. I'm starting to choke a little bit. I

574
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: think I gotta letok on my throat. It was good though,

575
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,439
Speaker 1: it's good, right, it's good. I gotta practice. We'll work.

576
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 1: I think we're an agreement here. Yeah, the Chiefs. The

577
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 1: Chiefs absolutely catching three and a half here, like when

578
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 1: they moved this game back to l A and it

579
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: was three and a half. You gotta take it for

580
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 1: all of you people not in the super Contest just

581
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,399
Speaker 1: allegedly making bets out there. I'd spring go a little

582
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: something on the Chiefs money line because that's a little

583
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 1: juicy to me. Who I'm with you. I think the

584
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: Chiefs are the better team. Defense is playing better. I

585
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: like everything the Chiefs are doing right now. Absolutely. Kansas City,

586
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,759
