Cody that yeah, Cody Pickens, 76 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: my guy. That was the thing way back when to 77 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: go to the casino from Indiana you would go to 78 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 1: the boat in Michigan City and it literally was a boat. 79 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: It had to be on water, like all this weird 80 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: gambling stuff. But we went to the boat. We were 81 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: playing craps. I had no idea how to play, no clue. 82 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: I'm just learning on the fly. 83 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 4: Uh huh. 84 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: And they were like, yeah, you could go yo eleven. 85 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: You know, They're like, you could you could like throw 86 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: throw your money. I mean, you could bet your money. 87 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: It's just a one time throw. It's if it's eleven, 88 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: you'd like and then you get fifteen times your money. Basically, 89 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, let's try that Yo eleven, Yo eleven. 90 00:03:53,520 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: Like I was crushing Yo. I had Lorena chips everywhere, 91 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: you know, like the railing in front of you, there 92 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: were just rows of chips. There were chips in my pockets. 93 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: I had cargo short. 94 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 3: We're gonna play on every sided. 95 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: And you know what, I kept doing what you eleven 96 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: eleven yo? And I lost everything I had won. 97 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 4: You hit it. 98 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: Oh No, that was the very first time away your 99 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: wins you have. I know, I know, but I didn't. 100 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: I didn't even realize. The only thing I was like, 101 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: look at all these freaking chips. They were everywhere, and 102 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: then they weren't, and then they were gone. 103 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: You gotta take the chips back to your room that night. 104 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 3: Don't even cash them in, take them back to your 105 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 3: room and sleep on them. 106 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well no, for next time. I'll know for next time. Yeah, okay, 107 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: So the three most interesting players in the NFL? Who 108 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: are they going to be this year? 109 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 4: Right? 110 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 1: Like, I've been thinking about this and I want to 111 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: put Shador Sanders in the top three because think about that. 112 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: We're talking about driving conversation. 113 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 4: Right. 114 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: You put on sports radio, what's a common player that's 115 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: talked about a lot, getting a lot of airtime? You 116 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: turn on sports TV, you watch Sports Center, you watch. 117 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: First things first, whatever what's Cowhard talking about on TV? 118 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: Who are gonna be the three most interesting players? They 119 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: get a lot of conversation, opinions go lower, all that 120 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: type of stuff. I want to put Shador Sanders in 121 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: the top three because the thinking is if he plays, 122 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: If he plays, he's almost a lock to be in 123 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: the top three. He's just gonna generate conversation. If he's good, 124 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: you get the Shadueur backers, like what now, what do 125 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: you have to say? 126 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 4: Now? 127 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: If he's bad, you get the Shaduur haters. Haha, we 128 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: knew it badly, you know that type of stuff. It's 129 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: just gonna be a back and forth the whole time. 130 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: It's like the It's comparable to the Tebow phenomenon, right, 131 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: Like t Baw wasn't good, but everybody had an opinion 132 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: on him and he just drove conversations. So that's the thing. 133 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: If Shador gets on the field, think about that for 134 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: a second. If he gets on the field as the 135 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: starting quarterback, just walk through that. Why wouldn't the Browns 136 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 1: put him out there for some portion of the season. 137 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: How's the season realistically gonna play out for them? They're 138 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: gonna be losing games left and right. Why would you 139 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: just stick with Flacco? Why would you be like, all right, 140 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: enough of Flacco, Let's see what Kenny Pickett can do. Now, 141 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like, why why are you 142 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: wasting time on that? At some point you gotta throw 143 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: a rookie out there, and it's gonna be Dylan Gabriel 144 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: or Shadu or Sanders, it might be both. You know, 145 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: it's possible one gets in there and gets hurt and 146 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: then the other guy gets them playing time, or the 147 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: first rookie gets in there totally ineffective, the other rookie 148 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: gets playing time. So as long as Shadueur gets on 149 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: the field, I think he's a cinch to be one 150 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: of the top three most interesting players this year. But 151 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: will he get on the field as the starter? It's 152 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: not a lock. It's not a lock. I think he should. 153 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: I think it's likely. You know, you go up and 154 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: I it's likely. I start squinning that he'll get out there, 155 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: just based on what's in front of him. And again 156 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: like the why not factor, why not, let's just see 157 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: what he's got. Maybe he can do some things for us, 158 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: Maybe he can help us out let's just get the 159 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: ball rolling. It's Week twelve. Our record is in the toilet, right. 160 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: If he gets out there, then I still think he'd 161 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: be one of the top three players talked about. And 162 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: you could even throw this out there, even if he's 163 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: not getting playing time and the Browns are losing games 164 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: left and right. Flacco's fresh off a stinker performance. He 165 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: just threw three picks, you know what I mean. The 166 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: conversation's gonna be there too. He's gonna be talked about 167 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: quite a bit, so should or might be the top three, 168 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: But let's talk about the other ones. They're gonna be 169 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: in there. These two are on my list top three 170 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: most interesting players in the NFL this season. Bears quarterback 171 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: Caleb Williams, Locke City, USA. He is for sure gonna 172 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: be one of the top three most interesting players because 173 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: of everything we've been through with Caleb Williams. The guy 174 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: was just missing throws into a net in training camp 175 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: and this was like a oh my gosh moment. It's 176 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: the insanity. I think is the most scrutinized quarterback. I 177 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: think he's the most scrutinized player in the NFL by far. Right, Now, 178 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: the shduor Sanders would be the other. But in terms 179 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: of scrutiny, you know, like it doesn't get much better 180 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: than scrutinizing, you know, throwing a football into a net. 181 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: That's pretty much the epitome of scrutiny right there. So 182 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: with Caleb Williams first year with Ben Johnson, how is 183 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: he gonna play? Are the Bears winning games? Is his 184 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: production any better? If he looks better, he's gonna be 185 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: a story. If he looks the same as his rookie season, 186 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: he's taking sackscalore. He's struggling, that's gonna be a story. 187 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: If he's worse, that's even a bigger story. So Caleb 188 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: Williams good, bad, similar, indifferent, He's gonna be a monster 189 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: story this year. I also put in my top three. 190 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put Vikings quarterback JJ McCarthy. 191 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 4: There. 192 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: Now the reason I like JJ McCarthy to be a 193 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: top three most interesting player, it's the boombust factor with 194 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: the Vikings. And it's also what the Vikings just did 195 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: the previous season. They went fourteen and three. They won 196 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: fourteen games with Sam Darnald Donald threw thirty five touchdown passes. 197 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: So JJ McCarthy is a first year starting quarterback. If 198 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: he's good, if he's serviceable, the Vikings are gonna be 199 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: winning games. If he's got these first year growing pains 200 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: and man, he made a costly throw to lose this 201 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: game and then man, the next game he's stunk it up. 202 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: What the hell is going on with the Vikings and 203 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy. Did they make the right decision? Should they 204 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: have gotten rid of Darnold bab bab? It's gonna be 205 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: a big time talking point. So I think if JJ 206 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 1: McCarthy is good, it's whoa look at this guy? Man, 207 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: what's the ceiling for the Vikings? If he starts off slowly, 208 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: it's everything I just said. But I think he's going 209 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: to be one of the biggest vocal points in the 210 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: NFL this season. And then you get to like the 211 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: usual suspects. Is it possible that take your pick Lamar 212 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: or Burrow or Josh Allen or a lot of these 213 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: guys who are big names who have yet to win 214 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl, they're having great seasons or they're struggling. 215 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: Could they be one of the three most interesting players 216 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: to talk about? Yeah, they could. It's hard to pinpoint 217 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: which one it's gonna be I thought about Jalen Hurts. 218 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: Could he be one of the top three most interesting topics? 219 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: Maybe if you think of the Eagles defending Super Bowl champs. 220 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 1: Let's say that Jalen Hurts is struggling a little bit. 221 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: Let's say that Saquon Off of four hundred plus touches 222 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: takes a step back this season. It's happened before running 223 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: backs with the workload that great. They don't sustain excellence 224 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: like that, So he could have a noticeable step back. 225 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: And then there's more on Jalen Hurts plate. And let's 226 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: say he's not playing great. These are the defending champs. 227 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: They just kicked around the Chiefs high expectations. Again, they're struggling, 228 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: and it traces back to Jalen Hurts. He's gonna be 229 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: a big topic, So it could be him. I thought 230 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: Coop came up with a great name. And there are 231 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: a lot of ways to get home. You always talk 232 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: about this in sports betting. We have a lot of 233 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: ways to get home, right. We could win it with 234 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: the defense, We could win it with the passing game, 235 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: could win it with the running game. With a lot 236 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: of ways to get home. On this one he threw out, 237 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 1: and I'll give him credit, Aaron Rodgers. Now the thing 238 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: with Rogers is how we can get home. Okay, he 239 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: plays great. Wow, look at Rogers. Look at his career. Man, 240 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: the Jets really were a grease fire, no wonder he 241 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: struggled over there. Look at him now with a real organization. 242 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. He's doing these hits. I don't know 243 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: if he's able to go on McAfee, if he's able 244 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: to do you know, media hits. I know that was 245 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: the thing with the Jets, didn't want it. To my knowledge, 246 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: I don't think the Steelers have put the kebash on that. 247 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: So if he's doing weekly hits, and he's even more 248 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: in front of your face, he's got to say something 249 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: that raised his eyebrows. That happened last year, Remember was 250 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: that Mike Williams who ran the wrong Someone ran the 251 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: wrong pattern and he was like, yeah, freaking guy. If 252 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: he ran the right pattern, I don't know, maybe we 253 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: would have completed though that's I'm paraphrasing, but that was 254 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: the gist of it. If Rogers is doing that, he's 255 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: a shoe in. If he's doing weekly hits, I mean 256 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: they're gonna have a loss or two in a row 257 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: and he's gonna say something and it's gonna be a 258 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: big story. And then also if he just sucks, if 259 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: he's a shell of himself, if he's still not right 260 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: health wise, right, like, it's still gonna be a big story. 261 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: A lot of ways to get there. The one thing 262 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: where maybe he's not a focal point is we're just 263 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: sort of over it. And let's say Rogers is like 264 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 1: the last year, not the first year of FARV in 265 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: Minnesota when he threw thirty three touchdown passes seven interceptions 266 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: that make it to the NFC title game, he was 267 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: a huge story. It's the last year of FARV with 268 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: the Vikings, right the next year where he struggled, he 269 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: got injured, the iron Man streak ended, he got you know, 270 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: knocked out against the Bears, the whole thing. Right, If 271 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: Rogers just sucks, I really do think there's a point 272 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: where we're just completely fatigued and we're just done. We're 273 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: over it. So yeah, I think that if he's maybe, 274 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: if he sucks, I think he'd be interesting. If he's 275 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: just like below average, he's okay, he's not a disaster, 276 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: but there's just no juice really with him or the Steelers. 277 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: The Steelers are like nine to eight, eight and nine ish. 278 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's Rogers is middle of the pack at best. 279 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: I think I think it could be a tuneout. I 280 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: think it could be a shoulder shrug type situation right there. 281 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: But I do I think there are a lot more 282 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: ways to get home with Rogers being one of the 283 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: three most interesting players in the NFL this season. That's 284 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: my list. I'll go Caleb Williams, JJ McCarthy, Aaron Rodgers. 285 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: I'll say those are the three most interesting players in 286 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: the NFL this season.

They not like us. They're still on the 339 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: Drake's just not popular anymore. 340 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 4: Huh. 341 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 3: I don't think that's true. Yeah, I think I don't 342 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 3: think you can kill his popularity. 343 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: Well, you can den it deadly bend it, for sure. 344 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 1: There's a dent in net popularity right now. But he 345 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: doesn't care. He's sitting on he's wiping his tears with money. 346 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: You know, he doesn't care. He's good. So there's a 347 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: story that caught my attention on Thursday. This is Michael 348 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: Porter junior. Okay, so he's now playing for the Brooklyn Nets. 349 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: He is a former member of the Denver Nuggets. He 350 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: was traded, but he went on a podcast and he 351 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: was talking about sports betting and look, he made some 352 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: points that I completely agree with. And the gist of 353 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: it is, this is all from his standpoint, right, and 354 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 1: it makes sense. He's the one who's dealing with these 355 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: idiotic fans that say, dude, I needed one more basket 356 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: and you couldn't score and I'm just mad at you, 357 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: And I mean, he's got to deal with those people 358 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: are worse. He's like, we really do get death threats. 359 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: His life is threatened because he didn't get one more 360 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: rebound and the parlay didn't hit. You know, this is ridiculous, 361 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: but unfortunately that's what a lot of athletes have to 362 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: deal with. And a couple of Michael Porter Junior's thoughts 363 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: on this podcast. He said, the whole sport's gambling entity. 364 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: It's bad and it's only going to get worse. And 365 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: one of the examples, he said, the enjoyment of the 366 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: game isn't for the game anymore so that people can 367 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: make money. In reality, way more people are losing money 368 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: than making money. Now he's right about that, So think 369 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: about it. This is the dynamics, this is how it 370 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: all comes together, and a lot of athletes get screwed 371 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: on this. So you got a lot of sports betters 372 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: now more than ever because it's legalized. So you just 373 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: get on your app of choice. You know that MGM, 374 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: DraftKings Fan Duel, whatever, and you search for the best line. 375 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: Maybe you got multiple sports books, right, and you're just 376 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: firing away and there are a lot of betters that 377 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: lose more than they win. And then there are a 378 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: lot of betters that can't handle it. It might lash 379 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: out at an athlete or twenty and it becomes this 380 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: whole sucky thing. It's terrible. 381 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: What was the part of the quote that he said 382 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 2: right before the part about there's more people losing than winning. 383 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: Oh, he said, the enjoyment of the game isn't for 384 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: the game anymore, Okay, that people can make money. 385 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 2: So while I agree with that to an extent, I 386 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 2: feel like it needs like these sports I mean for 387 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 2: the most part, maybe not the NFL, but these sports 388 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 2: need gambling. Oh yeah, because the newer generations like gen Z, 389 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 2: I just feel like army stimulants. They're they're not as 390 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 2: into sports as the you know, I feel like the 391 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 2: Millennials were like kind of the last you know, and 392 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 2: even then it's like kind of split, like uh, you know, 393 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 2: it's not the same type of fandom. 394 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: It's not like the same obsession, like the same like 395 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: oh man, they're just like yeah, I'll catch the highlights 396 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: right right. 397 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 2: It's not it's not the connection to the like where 398 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 2: you're you know, I'm the type of fan like where 399 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 2: and you know this is probably not healthy, but you know, 400 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 2: a bad game, a bad loss from the Broncos will 401 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 2: ruin my day. 402 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 4: You know, like. 403 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 3: You gamblers who are just playing on games, they don't care. 404 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 2: We'll see if they don't care, they care about the money, money, yeah, 405 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 2: they it can ruin their their day, but they you know, 406 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 2: it's it's totally different. 407 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, it sucks. I hate it for the athletes because listen, 408 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: no one should be you know, talked to completely disrespectfully, 409 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: death threats, the whole. There was another story with Max Homer. 410 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: He's a golfer and he was talking about some of 411 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 1: the abuse that he faces and has to you know, 412 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 1: get off of social media, and there are all these 413 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: threats and it's just too much. There was Lance McCullers. 414 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: There's a Houston astros pitcher, So there was an intoxicated 415 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: better overseas that sent messages on social media threatening to 416 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,479 Speaker 1: murder his family and him. Why well, because he had 417 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 1: a bad start. So you know, your family's got to go. 418 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: He has this bad start on a Tuesday night, wrecked 419 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: my parlay. I mean, everybody's got to go, you know, 420 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: one by one. Because I've never thought about that. Yeah 421 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: that's what happened. 422 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 4: Wow. 423 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: Crazy. But here's the thing though, this is the point 424 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: I want to make about all of this, because these 425 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: discussions turn into hey, because of betting, this is what's happening, 426 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: and it's like no, no, no, no, no, stop right there, 427 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 1: it's not because of betting that these things are happening. 428 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: It's because people are a holes, because they're psychotic. Yes, 429 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: that's why it's happening. So you can't fault betting, Like 430 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: there's just a disconnect. Put it this way. If if 431 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: somebody I don't know had too many drinks one night 432 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: and then did something crazy, you know, like let's keep 433 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: it as apples to apples as possible, they threatened to 434 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: murder a person and his entire family, right, you wouldn't 435 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: be like, well, alcohol, you know, if it wasn't for alcohol, 436 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: we'd be good. No, you would hold that person accountable. 437 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 7: You would say that's not acceptable, dude, right, Like, so 438 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 7: it's not alcohol's fault, it's not betting's fault. It's the 439 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 7: fault of the idiots that don't know how to behave. 440 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 1: That's the only thing I'm trying to say is, yeah, 441 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: just don't blame betting. Blame the person who can't handle betting. 442 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: That's the difference right there. But far too often I'm like, well, 443 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: I mean with betting, and just that's what Michael Porter 444 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: Junior said at the end, Like the whole sports gambling entity, 445 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: it's bad and it's only going to get worse. I 446 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: don't have a huge problem with that statement, but it's 447 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,199 Speaker 1: it's sort of getting to the same old song and 448 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: dance where it's like, if not for betting, like we'd 449 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: be fine here. It's like, no, betting's not going anywhere. 450 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: They're making way too much money, like Coop is saying, 451 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: betting's going it's the bridge for a lot of people 452 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: to be more invested in these sports. So it's not 453 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 1: going anywhere. It's just like, until these people understand that's 454 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: not acceptable, I don't know how you get that in 455 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 1: their head. They're either punished in a way or listen. 456 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: I can relate to this in some sort of way, 457 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: like filling in, being a fill in radio host, and 458 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 1: I get it. But I told my mom, I'm like, 459 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: as weird as this sounds, there are a lot of 460 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 1: people that don't even think of you as a human being. 461 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: It's the truth, that's true. They're just you're this person 462 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: on the radio, and where's Ben, where's the guy Ben 463 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: doesn't do lists? And who's this filling guy doing list? 464 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,479 Speaker 1: They hate you, that's all they think. They think, like 465 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: you're some something something to entertain me. They don't think beyond. 466 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: They don't think, hey, you've got a sister, you've got nephews, 467 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: you got a girlfriend, you got a neighborood cat, yeah 468 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,719 Speaker 1: you got Oreo visits you. You're a human being, Like 469 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: they don't think like that. You're just this thing. 470 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 2: Why are you doing this to me? 471 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, right, Like that's what it is. So it's 472 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,439 Speaker 1: the same concept with sports betting and these athletes that 473 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: pay a price for these idiots that are just like 474 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: I would have won twenty k and this moron can't 475 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: make two free throws. I'm gonna tweet him. It's just like, no, dude, 476 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: that's a human being. You don't do that. That's not okay, 477 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: not cool. And I don't know how we can get 478 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: people to think along those lines. It's either their plunge 479 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: severely enough where that sets in or it sinks in. 480 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: Well see. 481 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 2: But I also think that there's such a fine thin 482 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 2: line and it's and it's really almost like arbitrary because 483 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 2: you know, I if that happens to me, right, I 484 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: lose something by what I'm doing the same thing. If 485 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 2: I'm not seeking the guy out and tagging him, but 486 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 2: I'm cursing him. 487 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: You know, like, well, listen, man, if they don't know it, 488 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: then you know, well the tree falls in the woods, 489 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, make it sound. 490 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, But that was gonna lead me to my next statement, 491 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: because I thought, Okay, well do I go on Twitter 492 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,479 Speaker 2: and sometimes tweet it out not directly to them, but 493 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 2: just out into you. 494 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: Know, into space or whatever. Yeah, And I. 495 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 2: Thought, I'm like, you know, I've done that, like. 496 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: You know, I mean, I. 497 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 2: Don't know if it's necessarily because of a bed, but 498 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 2: I'm sure I have. But I just I was thinking 499 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 2: specifically after like game one or Game two or whatever, 500 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 2: I think I went, I tweeted out, and I was like, man, 501 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 2: Bonick sucks. 502 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 1: Well listen that that to me is in a different category, 503 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: right Listen. If bon NICKX just goes on Twitter and hey, 504 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: let's see what people are talking about, Oh god, right, 505 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 1: yes exactly, that's yeah, that can suck. But if you're 506 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: literally adding him, you know, like you're dming him, right, Yo, 507 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: that's I think that's a completely different category where it's 508 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 1: not the coolest thing on earth just to even tweet 509 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: it out there. But it's not the same thing as 510 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: like literally you're basically texting them, you know, what I 511 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: mean like that, I don't think it's the same thing. 512 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: Maybe they're cousins, but I think they're distant cousins. I 513 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: don't think that's the same thing at all. But I 514 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 1: feel bad for the athletes. I'll tell you this, If 515 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: I was an athlete and had to deal with that, 516 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: I'd probably look at sports betting a lot more similarly 517 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: to how Michael Porter Junior looks at sports betting. He 518 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: probably looks at it think about it. So his brother 519 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: is banned for life because of sports betting. He gets 520 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: death threats. Sometimes it gets all these people like bro, 521 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 1: I needed two more points? What the hell? Can you 522 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: practice a little bit harder all the time? You'd be like, 523 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, you guys collectively, just jump in a river. Please. 524 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear from you ever again. So yeah, 525 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: i'd feel a certain type of way about it too. 526 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: I get it from his perspective, but I just don't 527 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: think you can get that twisted. It's not the fault 528 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: of sports betting. It's the fault of the people that 529 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: can't handle it and don't know how to treat y'all 530 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: need some mental health, Okay, that's right. Y'all need some manners, 531 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: is what you need. 532 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 4: Right. 533 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: We got Vic in La he was to tak gambling. 534 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,400 Speaker 1: Let's go Vic on Fox Sports Radio. What's up? 535 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 4: You know what. I'm not going to say that I 536 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 4: missed then, but I'm gonna do something in homage of 537 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 4: mister Maler. We're gonna start with Room number one Sports 538 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 4: is there we go, Luane, the sports dinner for the gambling. 539 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 4: You never, you know in the Roman times, So you're 540 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 4: talking about these guys getting heckled. Imagine being the sports 541 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 4: better they have to deal with those people taking their 542 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 4: losses inside of the damn stadium and it was no 543 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 4: where they went. Imagine that these guys are getting hundreds 544 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 4: of millions of dollars and they're talking about the hecklers. 545 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 4: And I can't really take Michael's opinion too much because 546 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 4: he's coming from a place, so, you know, dealing with 547 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 4: his siblings. But sports ben it for people to have 548 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 4: fun and gamble. It was never about these people getting paid. 549 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 4: That's whether you know the unionization, you know all the 550 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 4: you know how civilization comes about and things change and 551 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 4: get better and progress. But I cannot ever, ever, ever 552 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 4: have any type of alliance with their wining. The whole 553 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,959 Speaker 4: thing is for us to have fun. It's not for 554 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 4: them to actually get paid only and think it thatig. 555 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: Big dude, Like, are you saying it's okay to threaten 556 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: someone life if you don't hit your parlay and these 557 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: athletes just have to deal with it, like where are 558 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: you talking about? 559 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 4: No, I just say it's not okay, but then to 560 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 4: complain to act like, you know, like they really got 561 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 4: to take stuff serious. But at the same time, it's 562 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 4: always been like that. But I would hope these guys 563 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 4: have enough money for security because I mean, it is 564 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 4: what it is, because I don't understand how they can 565 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 4: really not really take it seriously and at the same 566 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 4: time and people are really threatening them. I can't really 567 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 4: say that they're not being threatened. But as far as 568 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 4: what sports is actually invented for, it wasn't invented for 569 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 4: athletes to make a half a billion dollars. That was 570 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 4: not the input is point of the whole adventure. It 571 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 4: was always about gabling. I mean, you know that's rule 572 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 4: number one. Just wanted to see how you felt about that. 573 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: I hear you, big Listen, thanks for checking in, man. 574 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: I just think, look, I get the point where, hey, listen, 575 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: there are some things that come with the territory as 576 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: a well known athlete, and a lot of those things 577 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: aren't great. Oh a lot of things. There are drawbacks. 578 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: They're drawbacks with every in life. But listen, I think 579 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: there are drawbacks that are reasonable, and that there are 580 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: drawbacks that it shouldn't even exist in the first place. 581 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: And I think death threats are one of those things 582 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: that should never exist. It shouldn't be like, Bro, you're 583 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: making thirty million dollars a year, so you get a 584 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: couple of death threats every couple of weeks. Just freaking 585 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: deal with it, you know what I mean. I don't 586 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: think it should be like that. That's just not acceptable, 587 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: and I don't think any athletes should have to deal 588 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: with that. And it's one of those that just comes 589 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: with the territory. I just I think that's a different 590 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: category where I can't believe something more isn't done about that. 591 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: How can you just go on social media and threaten 592 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: to kill someone and then just go to work on 593 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: Tuesday like nothing ever happened, Like, how is that the 594 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: way it works? It's insane to me. Look, I'll meet 595 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: you halfway vic like if you're shooting a free throw 596 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: and people are yelling all kinds of crazy things, you know, 597 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: within reason. It's a game. That's it happens, you know, 598 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: like that's that's the way it is. There are some 599 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: things that are not ideal, but that's just the way 600 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: it is, and most I think most athletes are reasonable 601 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: about it. If an athlete came out and said something 602 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: totally unreasonable, like, hey, you know, when I'm shooting a 603 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: free throw and I'm on the road, I would appreciate 604 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: it to be quiet there so I can concentrate. 605 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 4: Like it. 606 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: If an athlete came out and said something like that, 607 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: it's like, bro, you're not even being reasonable right now. 608 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: That's just not the way it works. But I think 609 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: it's totally reasonable for someone to come out, an athlete 610 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: that makes a lot of money and saying it's not 611 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: okay to just threaten my life or the life of 612 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: my family because I didn't come through. I had a 613 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: bad start as a picture, like come on, what are 614 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: we doing here? So no, I don't agree with that. 615 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: I just don't think that's one of those things like 616 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: hey man, spare me your tears. It comes with the territory. 617 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: I just think that's a completely different category. 618 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 3: If you're gambling, it's a gamble. Okay, you don't know 619 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 3: what's gonna happen, and you can't get mad if it 620 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 3: doesn't turn out in your favor. 621 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: Well, that's exactly right, that's totally it's gambling. 622 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 3: If you want full payback, you got to go and 623 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 3: put your money down and get full money back. 624 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, don't do it at all, right, No, it's that's 625 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: the thing I remember, well a long time ago, just 626 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: popped into my head here with you saying that Lorena Lebron. 627 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: He might have been playing for the Calves at the time, 628 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 1: but he was playing a game I remember for sure 629 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: at Detroit and he sort of stopped the game and 630 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: he was talking to a heckling fan that was sitting 631 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: real close to the court, and he said something along 632 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: the lines of, hey, you can say anything you want 633 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: about me, have at it. Don't talk about my family 634 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,959 Speaker 1: like that is out of bounds. You do not have 635 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: the right to do that, you know, don't even go there. 636 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: And the fan was kind of like, okay, you know, 637 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: completely backed down. 638 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 3: Right right, and Ron just came up to you like that. 639 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there, there are some reasonable no fly 640 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 1: zones as an athlete, and you can't just be like 641 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: that comes with the territory. You're gonna have to put 642 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: up with a lot of just stuff because you're in 643 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: the limelight, you're paid a lot of money. It's not ideal, 644 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: but it is what it is. I just don't think 645 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: death threats are one of those things that that's just 646 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: completely unreasonable for people to behave like that.

Yeah, And so 735 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 2: she and I've known this because you can look at 736 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 2: the other people's picks after the week's over, she will 737 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 2: pick like against the Broncos. I never pick against the Broncos, Like, 738 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 2: even if I think they're gonna lose, I just put 739 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 2: like one or two points on them. Yeah, And she 740 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,720 Speaker 2: picks against them all the time. But to her credit, 741 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 2: and this is how she gets away with it. When 742 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 2: we're watching the game, she'll still root for the Broncos 743 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 2: even if she's got like points on the other team. 744 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:05,800 Speaker 1: Wow. 745 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 2: And then if the Broncos lose, like just she keeps 746 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 2: it to herself. Inside, she's probably like, yeah, I. 747 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: But that's cool though. She respects your team. Yeah, that's 748 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: pretty cool. Yeah. For the most part, you know, my 749 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: girl can do whatever she wants. There are probably a 750 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: couple I couldn't have her rooting against Notre Dame, could 751 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: not have you know the Irish you're playing big time 752 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: college football game.
