Can you imagine we 19 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 2: started the Super Bowl and Trey Smith and Jalen Carr 20 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: just brawled first play of the game, just like everyone 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 2: cleared and they just fought with each other. I mean, 22 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 2: come on, it was pretty awesome. We had NBA all 23 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 2: start a weekend where tea where guys are cheating the 24 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: skills competition. Yeah, and we got dudes fighting in hockey 25 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: and like an exhibition game. I love it so much. 26 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: It was fun. 27 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 5: I was fighting. I've never really I don't know what happened, 28 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 5: like it seems like it went away. And I went 29 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 5: through a couple of games here and we did go 30 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 5: became a little bit of a hockey fan coming and 31 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 5: being living in Vegas. Yeah, I didn't think it was 32 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 5: gonna go over that well. But they did such a 33 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 5: great job here Las Vegas. 34 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: Cool. Winning championships helps as well, doesn't it. 35 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, they do a really good job. And I just 36 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 5: when I was there, I went through a couple of 37 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 5: games when I was younger, like twenty five years thirty 38 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 5: years ago, and there was no fighting. I was surprised, 39 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 5: and I really found out that really fighting doesn't happen 40 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 5: that much in hockey. Then I see these three fights 41 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 5: in literally nine seconds, and it was the talk of 42 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 5: Twitter last night. So interesting, man, it was. 43 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, And that was the first what was it the 44 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 4: first win for Team USA against Canada since the twenty 45 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 4: ten Olympics. And so the Team USA moves forward to 46 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,119 Speaker 4: the championship game on Thursday, and good for them. That's 47 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 4: great right there, and then full day at college hoops highlighted. 48 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 4: The biggest game of the day was number one Auburn 49 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 4: taking down number two Alabama. Auburn wins the game ninety 50 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 4: four to eighty five, and Jani Broome, you know this 51 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 4: guy who banked up his ankle again in the game, 52 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 4: but he had nineteen points fourteen rebounds. Alabama, who is 53 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 4: fantastic this season. They never had the lead throughout the 54 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 4: entire game. And it's just hard man. Like we always 55 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 4: talk about the three point line in the NBA, it's 56 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 4: obviously a huge factor in the college game as well, 57 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 4: not as much as the NBA, but a game like 58 00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 4: that yesterday where Alabama was five for twenty six from 59 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 4: three point ran hard to win games five for twenty 60 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 4: six from range, man. 61 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: I mean, Alabama plays the analytical style of basketball, right guys. 62 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: It's either three or layup. I think I saw that 63 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 2: the graph Ester Haad like they took two mid range 64 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 2: shots all game. That's all they're gonna do. And so 65 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 2: when that's the case, if you're not making your shots, 66 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 2: you're dead. But Alburn to me, it's the I've the 67 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: only time I've wis on to win the championship. At 68 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 2: the moment, it's a tournament with six games, right, you 69 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,839 Speaker 2: have to win six games. Anything can happen. But they're 70 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 2: very clearly the best team in the country. I thought 71 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: it was funny and I saw a tweet from a 72 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: college basketball analyst, Yester I said something like Alabama's defense 73 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: is not playing well. I'm like, what what defense? That's 74 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 2: the problem with Alabama. They don't play any defense. And 75 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: he gets Alburn, who is a multifaceted team. You got 76 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: to give him something. And Alabama did fight back at 77 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 2: certain times in the game. Right, I had Alabama minus 78 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: one and a half. I think I just did it 79 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 2: as a fate of everyone picking Auburn, even though I 80 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 2: should the almost part of the right side. But when 81 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 2: you have to fade principal, I hit my I hit 82 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: a third weekend in the last month of a reverse 83 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 2: money line round robin parlay with Utah winning last night. 84 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 5: I don't know what that is betting. 85 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: Here's what I do. Crack. Someone put out a three 86 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: a three leg parlay, right moneyline parlay. Okay, I take 87 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 2: the other side, So that's so I took three underdogs essentially, 88 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 2: and I round robin them. So one lost, okay, but 89 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: two to one. So I still hit a seven to 90 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 2: one parlay. Does that make sense? 91 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 5: Yeah? I mean, you know, I don't mess with parlays 92 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 5: and stuff. But this is interesting. Those terminologies you're saying. 93 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 5: We used to have if bets Like that was a 94 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 5: if this team's you have, you know, if you like 95 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 5: like Auburn, if Northern Arizona or something like, and then 96 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 5: if Auburn ones, you have all the action on the 97 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 5: next game. 98 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, basically what it is I took, I took. 99 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 2: I mean it's a three team that took three two 100 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: team parlays essentially, and. 101 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 4: It's like hit safer three team parla and. 102 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: I hit one of them, which paid seven to one, 103 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 2: So it pays for the other two that lost. If 104 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 2: that makes sense. Yeah, So you still you're still. 105 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 5: Jeff, How does it pay seven to one? Though? It 106 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 5: does because because they're. 107 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 2: Bon both because they're both underdogs, they're both like plus 108 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 2: two hundred plus three hundre underdogs. That's one Utah Utah 109 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: last night won their first Quad one game of the season. 110 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 2: It's Kansas last night, h in Salt Lake City. So 111 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: it's funny what it's college basketball that way as well, 112 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 2: when when some of these dogs you would never watch 113 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 2: anyways come through for you. 114 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 5: The Alabama Auburn game was like a pro game line wise. 115 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 5: It opened up one and a half and closed one 116 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 5: and a half, as you said, and by the way 117 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 5: that the total opened up one seventy three and one 118 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 5: seventy three and a half and closed one seventy three 119 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 5: and a half. And it did. It did find a 120 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 5: way to go over there did in that game ninety 121 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 5: four eighty five. You know how good I mean, really 122 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 5: the the SEC something you look at some of this, 123 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 5: it's unheard of four of the five teams here. Auburn 124 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 5: showed they are the best team in the country with 125 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 5: that impressive wine. 126 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 2: But I don't know if those teams are teams. M 127 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 2: I'm gonna wager on the postseason Auburn, Alburn, Obama. The 128 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: SEC in general Tennessee to me is way too inconsistent. 129 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: Alabama plays no defense. Florida they won big again, they 130 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 2: won big last night. I don't know if I trust them, 131 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 2: but I trust Auburn. That's about I feel. Other teams 132 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 2: are little inconsistent O'Brian something about them where it just 133 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 2: you know, Duke's pretty consistent. I think Duke's one of 134 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 2: those teams. Houston a big one yesterday, Arizona, but they 135 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: play no offense. I don't know how to trust them 136 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: right right. Albard's only team right now that I trust. 137 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 2: Tending the postseason right now could change obvious. It's February sixteenth. 138 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, and these teams like Tennessee plays excellent defense. But 139 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 4: Vanderbilt yesterday in the first half they score over forty points. Oh, 140 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 4: just a lot in a college game. So as great 141 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 4: as Tennessee plays defensively, there will be games to your 142 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 4: point where it's just like, man, they're really struggling defensively. Now, 143 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 4: they cranked it up in the second half big time. 144 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 4: Where Yeah, Tennessee, I would scored Vandy fifty to thirty two 145 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 4: in the second half, and za Kay Ziegler, he scored 146 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 4: twenty two points, all twenty two points in the second half. 147 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 4: So Tennessee they've got a little I'll put it this way, 148 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 4: Tennessee has a little bit more offensive fire power for 149 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 4: being a defensive lead team. You know, then some of 150 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 4: these offensive led teams have defense, right, if that makes 151 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 4: any sense. But yeah, and Rick Barnes in the tournament. 152 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we were saying it's basically like a team 153 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 2: like Houston, so defensive focus can't play any offense. Tennessee 154 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: can do that. But then we get to the point 155 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: of do you trust Brick Barnes in the postseason? 156 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 6: No? 157 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: And I don't either, And you know it's that's part 158 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 2: of it too, Like I Bruce Pearl has been doing 159 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: this a long time at Auburn, they just I just 160 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 2: think when you look at them, it's such a complete 161 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 2: looking team, right, they do many things well and then 162 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 2: play defense, they play offense. They're big. Then, is one 163 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 2: thing crack I will tell you about the SEC. As 164 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: you mentioned the SEC, yep, they are much bigger than 165 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 2: everyone else. Like when you watch as I will watch 166 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 2: a Big Ten basketball this afternoon when Oregon plays Rutgers. 167 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: Can't wait. Hopefully oberg has won the the genceuis open 168 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 2: by then, that'd be that'd be awesome. Like they're just 169 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 2: different bodies. Do you watch Purdue in Wisconsin yesterday and 170 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: then you watch and those are two ranked teams, and 171 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 2: you watch Alabama and Auburn and they were in the 172 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 2: same sport. I mean, like that's where the SEC is 173 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 2: different than other teams across the country. Are the conferences. 174 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, just watching that game and seeing this 175 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 5: kid Broom, My god, he really may be the best 176 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 5: all around player in the country. Nineteen points, fourteen rebound, 177 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 5: six assists. It's almost like watching an NBA player. I 178 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 5: know when I see these big teams and just to 179 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 5: let people know, they're not ones that a lot of 180 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 5: the pros bet the teams that have spotlights on them. 181 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 5: These big teams like Duke and stuff, they're not the 182 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 5: teams that you know, a pro bets because there's so 183 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 5: many different eyeballs on these teams. I'm still looking at 184 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 5: teams like American, North, Alabama, Chicago State. Yeah. Yeah, I 185 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 5: can't name none of the players, but I know which 186 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 5: way the lines are going and who gets what Binghamton 187 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 5: I'm looking to play Binghamton instead of auburner Alabama. 188 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 4: Just letting you know, no, I hear you on that. 189 00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 4: You mentioned Duke Duke smacked Stanford yesterday. It really you could. 190 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 4: That was a day where looking forward to March Madness, 191 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 4: Auburn Duke obviously, those are gonna be really really tough 192 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 4: outs come tournament time. And you mentioned an NBA guy 193 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 4: Crack and Shani Broom. You got to also mentioned Cooper Flagg, 194 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 4: who is sensational. Yeah, he got I don't know if 195 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 4: you guys know this. He's leading Duke in points, rebounds, assists, steals, 196 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 4: and blocks. He's just leading them all across the board. Yeah, 197 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 4: he is a sensational player. And uh, it'll be it'll 198 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,839 Speaker 4: be fun to watch come tournament time. It was a 199 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 4: great stat yesterday Cooper Flag and Tyrese Proctor, they combined 200 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 4: to score or assist on fifty five of Duke's one 201 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 4: hundred and six points. Like they've they got responsible for 202 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 4: half of Duke's out there to. 203 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 2: Do a question though for you, Brian, Yeah, maybe don't 204 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 2: have the answer for this off time my head. I'm 205 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 2: gonna ask you the question. So, when's the last time 206 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 2: a championship team was led by a freshman? Doesn't it 207 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: doesn't happen? 208 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 4: Well, mellow, mellow, off the top of my head years ago. Now, 209 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 4: well there are other examples. 210 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, like it just I think the tournament time though, 211 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 2: the veteran, the veteran nests like the it plays really well. 212 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 2: I feel like point guards and veterans tend to be 213 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: those teams that win championship. I guess you call him 214 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: the last couple of years and had younger players on 215 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 2: the team. But that's the only problem with Duke. I 216 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 2: feel like, are you trusting Cooper flag in Elite eight 217 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 2: game his first time ever? In that moment, yes, I 218 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 2: scored twenty seven. 219 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm I'm absolutely counting on him having a great game. 220 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 4: He's that good. He really is. I am like, it's 221 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 4: happened before. I know. There are more examples than just Mellow. 222 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 4: That's just the most. 223 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 2: Yeah comes to mind. Yeah, but yes, yeah, that's all. 224 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 2: That's my only curiosity with Duke is like, I don't 225 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 2: know if we if like we haven't had many freshmen 226 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: be not even point guards, just like typically in the postseason, 227 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 2: you need guard play and you need some experience. This 228 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 2: is uh. I mean, he can handle the ball at 229 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: a guard, but a bigger a bigger play and a freshman. 230 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 2: That's my concern. 231 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll have to do some digging here because I 232 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 4: know there are more recent examples of one and done 233 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 4: players winning championships, and I. 234 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 2: Mean the more recent on would be like the Anthony Davis. 235 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 4: Kentucky, right, right, Kentucky team, it. 236 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 2: Would be one of them. I think he won a championship, right. 237 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 4: Yeah he did, Yeah, I believe it was. So that 238 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 4: was Col's one and only. 239 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Kentucky, so that I mean, that's one obviously. I 240 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: just saw highlighted the other day. That's why I came 241 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 2: to mind adies freshman season. So you know it has 242 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 2: been done before and Clagg is that good to make 243 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 2: it happen. But they also just I subscribe to the 244 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 2: principal too, that like, if you're a good team, you 245 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 2: should beat everyone by a lot. If you're good. People 246 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 2: look at that. It's like a bad thing, Like all 247 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 2: the opponents are playing, but Dukes could they should win? 248 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 2: Wasn't ninety to fifty yesterday? It's something insane score against Stanford? 249 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 2: Like they should win those games by a lot. They're 250 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 2: much better than Stanford. 251 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll tell you what, man, It's funny how teams 252 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 4: kind of ebb and flow. Wisconsin is a great example 253 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 4: of this. How many years did Wisconsin win games like 254 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 4: fifty five to fifty two? For it feels like most 255 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 4: of my youth is what Wisconsin was doing. They'd bet 256 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 4: Purdue ninety four to eighty four. Wisconsin's offense has been good, 257 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 4: Like look at the second half alone. Wisconsin outscored Purdue 258 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 4: fifty eight to forty seven. In the second half, Wisconsin 259 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 4: shot seventy two percent from the field, Like crack. This 260 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 4: is a new day and age for Wisconsin offense. You know, 261 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 4: they're they're filling it up and it's not me. I'm 262 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 4: trying to think about that football wise, if there was 263 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 4: a team that I don't know, it'd be like Army 264 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 4: or Navy just all of a sudden airing it out 265 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 4: and having a legit like run and shoot a passing offense. 266 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 4: You're like, what is happening here? For Wisconsin to be 267 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 4: scoring like that? That is happening though, that's the problem. No, 268 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 4: they don't. But they're much better offensively than they used 269 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 4: to make. 270 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,599 Speaker 2: I think I was watching games they shot. That was 271 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: one of the teams that got parlay, by the way, 272 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 2: the round robin parlay was Wisconsin day shall like seventy 273 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 2: percent in the second half they were they were out 274 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 2: of this world. And the second half and on the 275 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,599 Speaker 2: road too, that was the impressive part. They did it 276 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 2: on the road, which yeah, in the college basketball winning 277 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 2: road games is hard. Winning road games as as six 278 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 2: seven point underdogs even tougher guys. 279 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 5: Did you hear that flag said he wants to come 280 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 5: back another year, which I mean, we really don't believe. 281 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 5: I mean, he's a guaranteed topic and. 282 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: Maybe he doesn't want to be a wizard crack. I 283 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 2: understand that. 284 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll be shocked if he stays another year at Tooke. 285 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 4: But I just but but with nil everything, Yeah, yeah, yeah. 286 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 5: Going back to you know, it just hit me because 287 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 5: I seen the Voice shows today and I seen some 288 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 5: of the picks. Uh Houston, I think Vanderbilt. How has 289 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 5: the Voice been doing in college basketball this season? It's 290 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 5: so hard to follow one. 291 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so the weekends, Like three weekends ago, the 292 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 2: Voice had a good weekend, last weekend bad, and then 293 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 2: this weekend I think it was about it was about average. 294 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 2: But again, like when I hit those those money line 295 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 2: like that that makes up I'm not sure people are 296 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: doing that when they fade the Voice. But two weekends ago, 297 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 2: I did it, and all four of there were two 298 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 2: there were two, there were two two two t money 299 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: line parlays. All four of the team's lost. So I 300 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 2: had a pretty big weekend on the on the old 301 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 2: fade there. 302 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 5: So okay, now I get yeah, yeah, now this now 303 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 5: it actually makes more sense. See, I I ignore those 304 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 5: moneyline parlays I seen yesterday, but I see what you're doing. 305 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 5: You're you're actually going the opposite way. And now now 306 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 5: I have no problem with those. 307 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 2: And and they're always plus money, they're always the dogs. 308 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, so that's what so yeah, so that's yeah, 309 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 2: so that that makes up for some of the wins, 310 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 2: but that the voice has so yeah. I mean, look, 311 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 2: I look, I'll tell you what we talk all the 312 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 2: time fades better than sometimes finding good good capper. But 313 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 2: it makes me watch more college basketball, to be honest 314 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 2: with you, Like, sure, I don't have a lot of 315 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 2: my own plays in college basketball because I'm you know, 316 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 2: I think it's hard to hop in in mid February 317 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: and get that done. But I want to say one 318 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 2: thing before we uh we bring for a second here, 319 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 2: I owe crack an apology. Guys. Super Bowl Sunday, I 320 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: had about it even day. If if Kenny Pickett doesn't 321 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: attempt that pass in the fourth quarter, I'd probably I'm 322 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 2: up a unit. I was down half a unit. I 323 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 2: would have been up a lot more if I took 324 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 2: Cracks advice, took Patrick Mahomes under six and a half 325 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 2: rush attempts. Every time I say to myself, Crack is wrong. 326 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 2: Here he wins every one of them. I would have 327 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: been up a unit if that would have happened. And 328 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 2: I want to apologize for the one hundredth times in 329 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 2: a row where I thought to myself, has no idea 330 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 2: what he's talking about. Yeah, and he and the Dallas 331 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: got it won.

I guess because I had the Chiefs. I 373 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 5: just took me down mentally, just not the Chiefs not 374 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 5: winning and and the losing fashion the way they went down. 375 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 5: But hyah, great super Bowl prop wise, and a great, great, 376 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:54,719 Speaker 5: great NFL season. 377 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 4: Absolutely.

So Mac McClung. He 404 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 4: won the Dunk Contest for the third year in a row. 405 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 4: He jumped over a Kiah one of his dunks. I'm like, oh, yeah, 406 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 4: he should have jumped over the Crackmobile, the blue Kia. 407 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I got a EV nine so it's a really big, 408 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 5: it's all machine. I don't know if he could do that. 409 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 5: I have to challenge over that one a. 410 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 4: Little more like an suv. Was that considered an suv? Yeah, 411 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 4: so yeah, a little bit more vertical to get over 412 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 4: that thing. But it's a nice dunk over the Kia. Man, 413 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 4: he's saving the dunk contest. They said it last night. 414 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 4: I think it was Reggie. Reggie Miller was like, we 415 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 4: need him. He's single handedly saving the dunk contract. 416 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, the three peat. Yeah, he got the three He 417 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 5: was mine at bet MGM. I was looking at the 418 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 5: line he was, he was minus like one sixty five. 419 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 4: I believe it was heavy juice. 420 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 5: And you know, amazingly because we get the we get 421 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 5: the insights from John Ewing and there was but yet 422 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 5: there was four times as many bets on the three 423 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 5: point contest than the dunk contest. I was surprised at that. 424 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 5: I thought the dunk usually gets all the rave. I 425 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 5: was surprised that I had so much, so much more 426 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 5: bets on that, you know, on the on the three 427 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 5: point contest. And it's funny mclung opened up two hundred 428 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 5: five percent I'm sorry, eleven percent of the of the 429 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 5: tickets actually looking at these these bets though, looking at 430 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 5: the opening odds and the closing odds. You know, this 431 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 5: guy was seven to one here. I didn't realize that. 432 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 5: I kind of don't bet on on on these things. 433 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 5: I'm talking about the free point, yeah, the three week round, No, ye, hero, 434 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 5: I don't bet on these type of bets because there's 435 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 5: not really I hate betting into one way markets where 436 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 5: you know there's a lot of high juice. But I'll 437 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 5: tell you, if you can get a seven to one shot, 438 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 5: that's amazing that that that eighteen percent of the ticket, 439 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 5: seventeen percent was on him. I'd like to know the 440 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 5: results of how they actually I mean, you would think 441 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 5: betting into a one way market, you would think that 442 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 5: the casinos UH cleaned up the sports books. But it's 443 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 5: always interesting to see. I love the breakdown that youing 444 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 5: sends us to show us the percentage, by the way 445 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 5: he sends it before and after, so it's not like 446 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 5: they were just finding out after. We get to see 447 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 5: it before. It actually events take place too, so it's 448 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 5: a it's really a good breakdown. 449 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 2: I find myself disinterested with All Star weekends. I made 450 00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 2: this point with baseball a lot, and I still watch 451 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 2: baseball because it's a real game. You know, you can't 452 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 2: really fake playing baseball is you know, back before NBA 453 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 2: League pass social media, same with baseball, right, the All 454 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 2: Star weekend was the only time of the year you 455 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 2: got to see a lot of players play, you know, 456 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 2: and play together. Uh, Baseball is the best example because 457 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,879 Speaker 2: you know, with al and just played each other, but 458 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: we didn't really play. I grew up in Los Angeles 459 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 2: Dodgers and were on Cubs and Braves. Obviously with with 460 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: W and TBS, you didn't see any American League players 461 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 2: play except maybe a Saturday special, right, the Game of 462 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 2: the Week or whatever, Sunday Baseball maybe something like that. 463 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 2: So it's fun to watch those guys. You know, the 464 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: dunk contest. You used to have to watch dunk contests 465 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: because you weren't seeing dunks every day unless you watch 466 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 2: Sports Center.

Also, did you see the graph, 516 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 2: the graphic that mcgloy has made basically three times his 517 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: career earnings in the dunk contest. Now he's made as 518 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,360 Speaker 2: an NBA player, which is kind of wild. That's basically 519 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 2: his role now. Like, so does he have to stand 520 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 2: on a team to be in the dunk contest?

Do they just allow it? 524 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 4: Like he'll put on an Orlando Magic jersey. He's not 525 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 4: on the Orlando Magic man is a G league guy. 526 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 2: Okay, then sounds like Browny needs to do this, right. 527 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, we just have all G league dunk contests. 528 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 5: He sounds like a two way contract, right right, right? Yeah, Yeah, 529 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 5: it would be cool to see him out there with 530 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 5: like the Magic or something, but that he just doesn't 531 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 5: have the size or he's to guard most guys in 532 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 5: the NBA. 533 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 4: Man, I remember NBA Summer League so deep in the game, 534 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 4: I am, I'm an NBA sicco.

There's actually a better opportunity. 542 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 2: Made us a billion dollars. 543 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 4: Basically, I was crushing the Miami Heat in the Summer League. 544 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 4: But years ago it was just. 545 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 2: I could look through my phone. I didn't see anything. 546 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 5: With you. 547 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 4: But yeah, yeah, that's cracks department.

But Mac McClung, he was with 550 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 4: the Lakers. It was Austin Reeves and Mac McClung playing 551 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 4: on the same Summer League team, and all of a sudden, 552 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 4: Austin Reeves is like a legit NBA player, and now 553 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 4: Mac mcclug is mister Dunk Champion, which is great, but 554 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 4: you know, his NBA career hasn't taken off the same way. 555 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 4: But yeah, some of these summer league guys, they they 556 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 4: have substance in the league. They make it. Austin Reeves 557 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:52,360 Speaker 4: is one of those guys. 558 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 5: Do you guys watch Are you guys both watching the 559 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 5: hockey and then the uh like going back and forth 560 00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 5: that you watched last night? 561 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, like, I just I just watched.

I kind of cut my family 567 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: a little bit of slack after that with the like 568 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 2: it's like all the iPad, you know, like we were 569 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 2: watching my my son had sleepover last night. We were 570 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: watching parent trap in the bed with my daughter, the dog, 571 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 2: my wife, and my iPad had four Nations hockey on it, 572 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 2: like you know, it's just is what it is. My 573 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 2: phone sometimes I have iPad like on the chest with 574 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 2: the phone as well. We were like a college basketball 575 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 2: game on at the same time. So I, you know, 576 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 2: I but that's like how I can't tell my wife 577 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 2: I'm with other room and watch sports. She she'll stab me. 578 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 5: So so you don't. 579 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: Know, I don't. I don't really watch sports the sun anyways. 580 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: You know, like the first time I think I listened 581 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,080 Speaker 2: Tom Brady all year was the NFC Championship game. I 582 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,959 Speaker 2: just don't, like, I don't have the sound on when 583 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 2: I'm watching. 584 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 4: You know what we should do. We should provide sound 585 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 4: via Isaac Lowenkron versus games uttering games, you know, we 586 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 4: don't you think we should do that He's. 587 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 5: Got a better voice than some of these guys for sure. 588 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 4: I mean you need I love voicing some of this 589 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 4: stuff here. But how about this, Crack. If we turn 590 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 4: our attention to the All Star Game, it's a new format. 591 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 4: So if you're looking at betting opportunities, are you looking 592 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 4: at individual games? Are you looking at a certain team 593 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 4: to win the whole tournament? The breakdown is Team Shack 594 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 4: is plus one hundred, so that's even money. Team Chuck 595 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 4: Charles Barkley's team plus one eighty five, Team Kenny is 596 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 4: plus four to twenty fives about four to one, and 597 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 4: Team Candace is ten to one. Team Candace has zero chance, 598 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 4: not even NBA All Stars. They have no chance. So 599 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 4: how are you handicapping this thing here, Crack? 600 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 5: If you want to know, you might be surprised. But 601 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 5: there what is going to be tough to say, But 602 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 5: it's true. I have had years running around town before 603 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 5: we had the apps betting these totals. But like I said, 604 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 5: you might be surprised. There's usually an edge to betting 605 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 5: this type of game, especially the total right. I have 606 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 5: been on some major move line moves in these games, 607 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 5: but it doesn't always pan out. But I can remember 608 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 5: betting under three twenty like more than that. It's actually 609 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 5: like three twenty something, three twenty three. It closed three 610 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 5: oh three. It moved twenty points. It's unbelievable. And by 611 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 5: the way, that's right thunder and lightning. Listen. I bet 612 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 5: under three twenty three. It closed three oh three, and 613 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 5: it's still lost because they scored three hundred and eighty. 614 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 5: Like I swear. The rules for these games seem to 615 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 5: change every year or so. 616 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 4: They've changed a big way this year because you got 617 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 4: target scorers. Yeah, you don't even have a normal total. 618 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 5: Guy. 619 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 2: Well, do you remember the one year they missed priced 620 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 2: the WNBA All Star Game? 621 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 5: Yeah? Oh yeah, that was a huge that was big 622 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 5: that happened here in Las Vegas. That that actually everyone 623 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 5: copied the lines one of the sports books here, and yeah, 624 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 5: it was a disaster for a while. You know how 625 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 5: many people, I say people, you know, many sports books 626 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 5: denied paying that. I never talk about that publicly. Oh 627 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 5: we had the wrong yes, yeah, I'll just tell you 628 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 5: this for that. 629 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 4: That's the way it goes. 630 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 5: A dozen sports books tried not to pay this and 631 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 5: said we had the wrong line, and they literally tried 632 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 5: not to pay after the game was over, like, give 633 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 5: us that before the game tips off. No, they they 634 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 5: listen some of these some of these Mickey Mouse books. 635 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,959 Speaker 5: You have to play with someone reputable, and that's why 636 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 5: we have of course bad MGM here. I mean, but 637 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,719 Speaker 5: going back to this All Star game this year, they 638 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 5: had four four of eight, four teams of eight players 639 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 5: playing in the tournament. Each game, the first team to 640 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 5: score of forty points wins. I mean, it's so it's 641 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 5: so hard, it really is. The books, by the way, 642 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 5: I don't the books are letting you parlay the line 643 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 5: with the total in this situation, but it might be 644 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 5: worth trying. So it's interesting. 645 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's turned into it. It's a little bit 646 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 4: like what the Olympics like three on three basketball, where 647 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 4: you have to race to a certain score and you 648 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 4: can you can still bet totals, you can still bet 649 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 4: over and under. 650 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 2: Does this format excite use? 651 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 5: No? 652 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 4: It doesn't it But that's the thing, man is, listen, 653 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 4: if you give effort, if these players give effort, then 654 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 4: any format is going to work. But if they don't 655 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 4: give effort, no format is going to work. That's the 656 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 4: way it is. So we'll see how they play today. Yeah, 657 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 4: but it all comes down to that if they try 658 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 4: or not. 659 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 2: You agree. I think the effort thing again, like you can't. 660 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 2: I don't think they keep changing the money is to 661 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 2: get more players to care. Again, it's it's a long season. 662 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 2: I think it's harder to care about these type of 663 00:32:55,920 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 2: exhibition contests. And again, especially because there's so much exposure 664 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 2: now to given night that this doesn't feel as special anymore. 665 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 2: It used to feel special because this is one giant 666 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 2: event that it was your only time of the year 667 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 2: maybe to get a national TV. And now you're a 668 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 2: national TV all the time, and you and two like 669 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 2: these guys work out together. Now they all hang out 670 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 2: together off the court. I mean also a weekend. I 671 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 2: feel like it used to be the time you fratnize, 672 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 2: you know, with like your other teammates and you know 673 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 2: the other player around league you don't see as often. 674 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 2: So I think that's there many reason why players don't 675 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 2: care as much anymore. I think that's some of them. 676 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, one thing to keep your eye on is the 677 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 4: Candace Team Candace. So these are like the rising Stars. 678 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 4: These are not NBA All Stars. So these are a 679 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 4: bunch of young guys and they're playing against Shack's team. 680 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 4: Draymond Green had a quote where he said, these rising 681 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 4: stars don't deserve the privilege of playing on Sunday, and 682 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 4: so it'll be interesting to see if Draymond's not on 683 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 4: he's not an All Star, he's not on Shack's team. 684 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 4: But be interesting to see if the team that faces 685 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 4: Team Candice feels the same way, if they smack around 686 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 4: these young guys like hey, hey, hey, young guys, you 687 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 4: don't deserve this stage. And they kind of right, that 688 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 4: might happen. 689 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 2: Not in the NBA, that's right. 690 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 4: Well, they're in the NBA. They're just not All Stars. 691 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 2: You know. 692 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 4: It's a bunch of young guys like Austin Reeves and 693 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 4: like Stefan Castle, all these young guys that are not 694 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 4: All Stars. 695 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 2: I kind of agree with Draymond here a little bit, like, right, 696 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 2: why why would they play the All Stars? They're not 697 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 2: an All Star? 698 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the one of the teams is comprised of 699 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 4: all non all stars, right, playing against a team that's 700 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 4: fully all Stars. That's what we're doing. 701 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not is that supposed to get people to 702 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 2: watch that? The goal like we're gonna be like you 703 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 2: know what, there's not All Star team ever ready for 704 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: the underdog for the underdog year. Is that that what 705 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:54,399 Speaker 2: we're doing? 706 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. I'm not sure, but that is 707 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 4: something to keep in mind. If you see a total, 708 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 4: you know it's a target score of forty. So sometimes 709 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 4: these totals are like seventy three and a half or something. 710 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 4: So it's basically like, can the NBA All Stars? Can 711 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 4: they smack around these young guns and win by at 712 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,439 Speaker 4: least like eight points? You know, seven points if you're 713 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 4: on the under Oh, that's something to keep in mind. 714 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 4: Maybe what do you think, crack You're gonna get a 715 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 4: wager in or two on that. 716 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 5: I'm sure we'll have something. 717 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, I'm sure there will be something for that, 718 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 4: no doubt about that. 719 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 2: All Right. 720 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 4: We've got Bill Krackenberger sports handicapper professional.

I think home court and college 746 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,720 Speaker 5: basketball probably the most important have any sport. These eighteen 747 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 5: nineteen twenty year old kids much more comfortable in their 748 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 5: home court arenas with big crowd Michigan do for a 749 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 5: little let down after their big win versus part due. 750 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 5: Ohio State really needs this one to help their corner resume. 751 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 5: So there we go, Ohio State money line. 752 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 2: Okay, I like it. I like it, so I guess 753 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 2: the question is, I don't even know if I can 754 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 2: put this in a harlay. I'm gonna make sure to 755 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,240 Speaker 2: put this all together here because I have a golf 756 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 2: prop that I want to use. I want to make 757 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 2: sure I can make this happen before I put it 758 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 2: in here. But it looks like I can't. Okay, give 759 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 2: me a Scottie Scheffler to finish top five minus one 760 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 2: oh five. Shot a seventy six yesterday, his worst round 761 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 2: in two years. The course is not that hard. I 762 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 2: would imagine he plays a lot better today. He was 763 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 2: near the top with the leader board until he shot 764 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,439 Speaker 2: being a double and and a bogey the back there. 765 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 2: So I like, I like Scheffler to sort of pop 766 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 2: back up today and get in the top five. He's 767 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 2: currently the leaders at eight under. Shuffler's at three under 768 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 2: again seventy six yesterday, and he was one of the 769 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,879 Speaker 2: worst rounds on the course. I expect them to hop 770 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 2: back again, tied for eighth right now top five finish 771 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 2: minus one oh five. 772 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 4: Okay, all right, you know what I'm gonna pick on 773 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 4: your ducks here, Jeff.

Same with you, Jeff, But 833 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 4: I know, Crack. You're honing in on this NBA market 834 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 4: as we look at the stretch run here. Can't even 835 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 4: quite say the second half. I guess it is, but 836 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 4: I mean almost these teams have played between fifty five 837 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 4: and fifty eight games, so this is just a little 838 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 4: sprint toward the end. You got your eye on season 839 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 4: win totals, Hunt, Crack, Are there any value any teams 840 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 4: that you like to get on? 841 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 5: It's one thing really good about MGM. You know, up 842 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 5: until these new sportsbooks came into the market, you could 843 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:38,240 Speaker 5: never bet an in progress season win type of a bet, 844 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,360 Speaker 5: like no one ever heard of that. And bet MGM 845 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 5: puts them up there like when the day's over, they 846 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,799 Speaker 5: put up new lines, and I just I kept on 847 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,840 Speaker 5: pounding unders. I'm not really an over guy, kept on 848 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,839 Speaker 5: pounding unders in the in the NBA, but I bet 849 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 5: mostly player props every day. I sprinkle in the occasional total. 850 00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 5: But NBA size of one of the hardest things to 851 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,840 Speaker 5: beat in all sports betting. Even the two guys I 852 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 5: know that I've beat it for many, many years, at 853 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 5: least a decade and a half, they both stop betting 854 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 5: NBA sides. That's how hard it is. The randomness. So 855 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 5: player props, you need to keep an eye on injuries, 856 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 5: who's resting, and what minutes players are getting Towards the 857 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 5: end of the season. Make sure you keep an eye 858 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 5: on teams that I've you know, turned it in for 859 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 5: the season. Also, you know they're playing their younger bench 860 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 5: players more and more. I've had some really good success 861 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,960 Speaker 5: betting NBA props the last few years, hitting a ridiculous 862 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 5: fifty nine percent. I've ran the last couple of years 863 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 5: since I started doing this, So NBA player props are 864 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 5: the way to go. Bet MGM of course, offers a 865 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 5: plethora of them, and I'll just tell you, you know, when 866 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 5: you look at the NBA player prop market, I don't 867 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 5: want to insult any sports book and say they get 868 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 5: them wrong, but how you know how hard it is 869 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,280 Speaker 5: to get when you're you're putting up twenty to thirty 870 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 5: to forty player props each game, you know, times up 871 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:09,240 Speaker 5: by a dozen games, where it's really tough to get 872 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 5: that market correct. Compared to an NBA side, which every 873 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 5: single network listen, I'm gonna draw up parallels to the 874 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 5: NFL season here, you know, the when you see the NFL, 875 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 5: When you see the NFL lines come up late Sunday 876 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 5: night early Monday morning for the following week, you literally 877 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:31,880 Speaker 5: every network you turn on will have coverage of the 878 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 5: NFL sides and it's real fast to get. It doesn't 879 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 5: take too long to get an efficient market. Whereas the 880 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,720 Speaker 5: player props as they start coming out towards the middle 881 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 5: of the week and then towards game time, I beat 882 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,240 Speaker 5: that market. And it's the same with the NBA. 883 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 2: So that's the reason one quick note here on the 884 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 2: player props. So you said those out cracking, I've talked 885 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 2: about I've bet on them, but I have found that 886 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 2: some times I have to wait till the prop moves 887 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 2: a point before sports book will let me put a 888 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 2: full unit on it. So if you give out something, 889 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 2: let's say over thirty and a half, I gotta wait 890 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:15,359 Speaker 2: till thirty one and a half to get a full 891 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,400 Speaker 2: unit on it. It's very frustrating. 892 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 5: That is frustrating, but I've also. 893 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 2: Found that it doesn't matter that much. I know it, 894 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 2: that makes sense. I'm rarely getting hooked on a bad 895 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 2: number to a point about like what the number is 896 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 2: not quote nquote right, But a lot of times I 897 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:39,760 Speaker 2: gotta wait till moves a number essentially before the sports 898 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 2: book will let me put down a full unit on it. 899 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, it's interesting, interesting how that works, obviously. 900 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 5: Especially if you're beating the prop marker consistently so. 901 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 2: You have to wait. Yeah. I'm also now streaming a 902 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 2: Villanova Michigan baseball game from point we. 903 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 4: Have to scoreless first inning. Please tell there. 904 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 2: No, they just will finish warm up skys and when 905 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 2: you guys know in Puerto Rico right now, it looks 906 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,479 Speaker 2: a beautiful day as the number two here hops the mound. 907 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 2: Third start for Villanova, obviously, third day in a row 908 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 2: of some some baseball here. So I'll provide updates as 909 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 2: we watch this. I don't know how to watch that 910 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 2: ESPN Plus. 911 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 5: Oh wow. 912 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 2: Okay, So I like baseball though, so I'm fine watching 913 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:28,319 Speaker 2: as much baseball as possible. So I cannot wait for 914 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 2: my kids baseball season to start. It's my favorite. 915 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 5: That's started like next month. Like Mark, Well, the tryout. 916 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:34,760 Speaker 2: Is supposed to be this weekend, but it's rain all weekend, 917 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 2: so they got pushed the next weekend softball trouts Tuesday night. 918 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,359 Speaker 2: I'm coaching softball this year. Guys. Oh wow. They asked 919 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 2: me to help. I was like, sure, why not. 920 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 4: What's your general approach to being a softball coach, Jeff, Well. 921 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 2: That's eight and under. So I run, run the bases, 922 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 2: catch the ball, and throw the right So. 923 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 4: The part of it is like fundamental stressing the fundamental. 924 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 2: So one thing about this league is if the ball, 925 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:06,879 Speaker 2: if you put the ball in play as a hitter, 926 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 2: you should automatically run a second base. So we will 927 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 2: teach the kids to just run a second base. That's 928 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 2: one thing we'll do because if they throw the ball 929 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 2: at first base, crack time it goes past the first baseman, 930 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 2: you get one free base to make the play. Yeah, 931 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 2: play automatic. Do you want the girls to throw the 932 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 2: ball to the right base. We want them to just 933 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 2: like put the ball in play. So uh, fundamentals will 934 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 2: be stressed. Uh from the coaching staff of I'm an 935 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:39,320 Speaker 2: assistant coach though, but I got my bucket. I have 936 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 2: my bucket from when I used to coach. I used 937 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 2: to coach high school baseball. By the way, I don't 938 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 2: know people know this. When I was playing with for 939 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 2: the Panthers Hare and Charlotte the first off season, I 940 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,399 Speaker 2: was bored because you go from like full football to nothing, 941 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,799 Speaker 2: and I'm in a new city. And I called my dad. 942 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 2: He goes, you should coach high school baseball. You coached 943 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 2: a little bit when you were back in Los Angeles, 944 00:46:58,120 --> 00:46:59,319 Speaker 2: And I was like, you know what, I'll do that. 945 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,839 Speaker 2: So I searched them the closest high school to where 946 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 2: I was staying. I was in Steel Creek near the 947 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 2: South Carolina border, and Formal High school popped up and 948 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:10,359 Speaker 2: I called the coach Brad Mercer is a good dude. 949 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 2: I said, hey, man, that's a deal. Like I got 950 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,000 Speaker 2: nothing to do. Can I come help coach? He said, sure, 951 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 2: I'll take his many volunteer coach I can get. So 952 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,880 Speaker 2: I had no baseball pants either. I just showed up 953 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 2: in sweatpants and like play games and stuff. So the 954 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 2: next year I became the varsity pitching coach like I 955 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 2: was full and we went Upper State. 956 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 5: One year. 957 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 2: We sent three kids, three pitchers to to uh the 958 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 2: U to college like Division one. So we ended up 959 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,400 Speaker 2: being pretty good. But I called pictures for five years. 960 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 2: I was like on my bucket, did everything like, yeah, 961 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:43,240 Speaker 2: come on, Jeff. 962 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,439 Speaker 5: Don't have to worry about is disgruntled parents yelling at them. 963 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 2: That was brad, head coach. Go talk to the head coach. 964 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 5: To the head coach, I'm just mean because of your size, 965 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 5: they don't. Then again, the mothers will still yell at 966 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 5: you though. 967 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 2: I'm about the head coach, though, go talk to the 968 00:47:58,800 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 2: head coach. 969 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 5: Play my son. 970 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, that wasn't much of a problem. It was more 971 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 2: just like the inner politics and stuff. But I'd be like, yep, I' 972 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 2: about the head coach. Talko, not my job, not my problem. 973 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, I you know, I was. I 974 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 2: was you calling plays leadoff double by the way from Michigan. 975 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 4: Here, it's not good. 976 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 2: I love baseball. Put it like that. 977 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's a favorite to score, darn it. Yeah. 978 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 4: Okay, so Cracker, are you looking just more player props 979 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 4: from game to game or are you looking at the 980 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 4: season season win totals team by team? 981 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 5: You know, it's it's it's player props. Every day I 982 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 5: give out player props. Now, I mean I do have 983 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 5: some season win totals. But listen, I was anti Lakers 984 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 5: and then that big trade happened, so that bothers me. 985 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 5: But yeah, I bet MGM still has some of the 986 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 5: great futures here. Literally, I mean not only all Star 987 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:53,239 Speaker 5: break stuff, not all All Star game stuff, but they 988 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:56,879 Speaker 5: have the season wins on every team over under. And 989 00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 5: I'll tell you, I give them a lot of credit 990 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 5: because they're minus won ten on these things. I'll just look, 991 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,520 Speaker 5: let's just pull up a random one here, Philadelphia seventy 992 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 5: six ers over thirty three and a half, minus one 993 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 5: twenty under thirty three and a half. Even so they're 994 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,360 Speaker 5: actually less juice. There's other books out there that charge 995 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,320 Speaker 5: more juice too. The Lakers are forty nine and a 996 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,359 Speaker 5: half under one twenty. I need him to go under 997 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 5: forty seven and a half, so hope. But I do 998 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,320 Speaker 5: have another bet though, the Lakers to win more games 999 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 5: than the Clippers. I sent you guys that you know 1000 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,439 Speaker 5: six months ago or you know, I guess four months 1001 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,880 Speaker 5: ago when I was in Connecticut. But so I do 1002 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,239 Speaker 5: have that going. But as far as season wins, though, 1003 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,440 Speaker 5: I am. I am under in the Lakers, So we'll 1004 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 5: see what happens here. 1005 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,839 Speaker 4: I love how you can do this, like you said, crack, 1006 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:45,280 Speaker 4: I love how you can do this during the season, 1007 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 4: like these they just fluctuate like an in game bet, right, 1008 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 4: like a single game. How the odds just fluctuate throughout 1009 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 4: that game. It's the same thing in the season win 1010 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:58,120 Speaker 4: total market. And you mentioned the Sixers. I was looking 1011 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,000 Speaker 4: at every team last night at the All Star break. 1012 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 4: The Sixers right now are twenty and thirty four right 1013 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,160 Speaker 4: to hit the over, their number right now is thirty 1014 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 4: three and a half. Season win total right thirty three 1015 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 4: and a half. They have twenty wins right now. They 1016 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 4: would have to go five hundred. They'd have to go 1017 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 4: fourteen and fourteen to hit the over and they might 1018 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 4: just start tanking here pretty soon. And Bead's talking about 1019 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 4: his knee is messed up, might need surgery. I think 1020 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 4: they're gonna start tanking here under and it's juice to 1021 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 4: the Over. I'm like, what, well these guys know that. 1022 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 4: I don't know. Are they going five hundred from here 1023 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 4: on out to catch the Over? I don't think they are. 1024 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 2: But I think you're I think you're on something. I'm 1025 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 2: with you. I don't see that happening because your point 1026 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 2: like they might shut down Paul George too, like it 1027 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 2: might be time to shut everyone down? Yeah, pretty soon? 1028 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 2: Can I give you one prime? I'm curious what your 1029 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 2: opinion here? Sure, Mavericks no playoffs minus one thirty five, 1030 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 2: So you have to win two playing games essentially to 1031 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 2: make the playoffs. You're the mass at the moment with 1032 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 2: all the injuries they have, right, they're not there that 1033 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:03,800 Speaker 2: it feels tough for them to I mean. 1034 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 4: Well, the thing is right now, they're in eighth place. Cool, 1035 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 4: they just have to win one play They would get 1036 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 4: two chances. Really, if they lost the first one, they'd 1037 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,480 Speaker 4: have a chance to win the second one, right, but 1038 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:17,000 Speaker 4: they'd have to lose twice tonight. 1039 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,279 Speaker 2: I basically say they're not gonna be They're not gonna 1040 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 2: end up in the eight. They're gonna be nine to 1041 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 2: ten or out because with all the injuries. 1042 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,719 Speaker 4: I mean, maybe you got the Kings are a game 1043 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:28,279 Speaker 4: and a half back, same thing with the Warriors, so 1044 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 4: maybe maybe they slide from eighth down. They have no 1045 00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 4: have no bigs that are healthy, correct, you know all 1046 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 4: their guys. 1047 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, so no shoes, no doors with their crack. I 1048 00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 2: could tell you. 1049 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 5: I want to see what their season wins was. It's 1050 00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 5: forty three and a half on the Mavericks. I just 1051 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 5: wanted to see what their what their season wins were. 1052 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, they would That's an interesting one too because the 1053 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 4: record right now is thirty and twenty six, so to 1054 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,760 Speaker 4: hit the over they would have to go fourteen and twelve, 1055 00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 4: like a little bit better than five hundred to hit 1056 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,880 Speaker 4: the over here. So I don't know which one like 1057 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,839 Speaker 4: sparks your interest more, Jeff. Is it the season win 1058 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,040 Speaker 4: total or is it the not making the playoffs for 1059 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:08,480 Speaker 4: the met. 1060 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,360 Speaker 2: Season wind total? Probably sparks some interest. I do like 1061 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 2: I do like that one, as you mean, I like 1062 00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 2: that the six Ers one. I might play that. 1063 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, did you play that I'm going to because I'm 1064 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,239 Speaker 4: just like, I don't. I don't see really how And 1065 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 4: it's kind of cool. You can go and see like 1066 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,359 Speaker 4: the uh you can look at it's worth looking at. 1067 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 5: UH. 1068 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 4: You can look at uh like the strength of schedule 1069 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 4: each team has remaining And so that's part of the 1070 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 4: thinking here is that Philly has one of the easiest 1071 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 4: remaining schedules. So that's probably why it's juice to the over. 1072 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 5: Right right, very interesting the deep their benches and incentive wise, 1073 00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:50,799 Speaker 5: and you know, you've got these kids that are you know, 1074 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 5: step up sometimes they want to play, I want to play, 1075 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,120 Speaker 5: or they want to play somewhere. They want to be reconnized, 1076 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,160 Speaker 5: they want to be seen, so that you have to 1077 00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 5: worry about too. But you've made good points to fifty 1078 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 5: to fifty. Is that what you said? Yeah, yeah, finish. 1079 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, they gotta go fourteen and fourteen and the record 1080 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,920 Speaker 4: right now is twenty and thirty four. Right, it just 1081 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:11,040 Speaker 4: doesn't make sense that they're gonna have this great push 1082 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 4: down the stretch to what to make the play in 1083 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 4: and get smacked in the first round. I just don't 1084 00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,319 Speaker 4: think organizationally, it makes any sense to do that. 1085 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 5: Gotcha, gotcha. I'm just looking. Don't mind me. I mean 1086 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 5: this is way too much here. I'll tell you why 1087 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 5: you look. I have been around sportsbooks literally numb a 1088 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:34,480 Speaker 5: little baby. I just look at MGM's just NBA. I 1089 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 5: liked it was hit NBA futures. You couldn't read all 1090 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 5: this stuff in the day. It's amazing how many things 1091 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 5: you know to make or miss the playoffs. Like, like 1092 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 5: Jeff said, each team there you mentioned the Mavericks is 1093 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 5: one thirty five to the know, every team there. Some 1094 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,359 Speaker 5: of them look so easy. But how do you put 1095 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 5: up lay ten thousand on the Bulls on the know? 1096 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 5: I mean, of course it's the no. But who could 1097 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 5: lay a thousand to win a dollar? You know? Like, 1098 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:07,240 Speaker 5: it's just some of these some of these are really interesting. Lakers, Yes, 1099 00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 5: that looks easy, doesn't it look easy? Jesus Lakers? But 1100 00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 5: who wants to lay the twenty to. 1101 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 4: One the Lakers to what to not win at all? 1102 00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:18,360 Speaker 5: No, Makers, not just to make the playoffs, just to 1103 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 5: make yeah, just to make the playoffs like they have. 1104 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 5: They have lots of interesting lines here, and again not 1105 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 5: many sportsbooks offer these type of lines. Let's look at 1106 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 5: the Hawks. Hawks is no. Minus one fifty, yes, one 1107 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,439 Speaker 5: plus one twenty five. You just don't see that. Even 1108 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,279 Speaker 5: the Warriors minus one thirty plus one ten. So this 1109 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 5: is a real good straddle compared to some of the 1110 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 5: futures markets out there. Bet MGM Futures just scrolled the 1111 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:50,720 Speaker 5: entire thing here today and they have so many different 1112 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 5: ways to bet. You don't have to bet these sides, 1113 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,240 Speaker 5: like I said, but I know people love the bet sides. 1114 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 5: They love, you know, the root for their team. But 1115 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:01,720 Speaker 5: like I said, I'm a round this for a long time. 1116 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 5: I don't know anyone that could beat NBA sides. So 1117 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 5: it's really tough situationally by living in Las Vegas, stealing 1118 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 5: a half a point here or there. But I still 1119 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 5: don't mess for I haven't really. I think I've got 1120 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 5: one side the whole season. I haven't bet any sides. 1121 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:20,279 Speaker 5: I'm more of props. I just know what wins, So 1122 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:22,799 Speaker 5: I'm not in this to have fun and cheer, and 1123 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 5: I'm in this to win money.

You 1167 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:27,040 Speaker 4: know now that football is sadly done. Christian, I'm just 1168 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 4: curious what what is the most popular you know, league? 1169 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:32,800 Speaker 5: Is it? 1170 00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 4: Is it college hoops? Is it the NBA? Is there 1171 00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 4: a specific team right now? We always talk about the 1172 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 4: Lions in the NFL. Is there a specific team in 1173 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 4: the NBA or college basketball that gets a lot of 1174 00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 4: betting traction? What are we looking at right now, now 1175 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 4: that football is in the rearview mirror. 1176 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:50,720 Speaker 7: Yeah right, it's very sad. 1177 00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 6: Now it's nothing without football, kind of change change. 1178 00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 7: Gears find something else. But NBA is usually the one 1179 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 7: that has the next highest betting handle for US. A 1180 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 7: lot of that stems from planner props. Those are huge 1181 00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 7: and NBA player props, I guess are easy to digest, 1182 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,200 Speaker 7: and you know, there's a lot there's a lot of 1183 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 7: people that better around those, So that would be next. 1184 00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 7: Probably college basketball as a whole probably ends up being 1185 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 7: the next biggest. 1186 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 6: One, and then on to hockey. 1187 00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:22,760 Speaker 7: Although last night's USA Canada game was we did take 1188 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,840 Speaker 7: a ton of action, uh at least double what we 1189 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 7: took on the like Dunk Contest and All Star weekend stuff. 1190 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 2: So far, I was to ask you about the wagers 1191 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:33,919 Speaker 2: for the NBA All Star Game today, if you would 1192 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 2: call it all a game where you're getting a lot 1193 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,200 Speaker 2: of action that I feel like that the format might 1194 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 2: make a difficult people for people to follow along. 1195 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, it so far has like that handle is fairly 1196 00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 7: low at this point, but it is you know, Team 1197 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 7: Chat first team Candace and Team Chuck first. 1198 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 6: Team Kenny, which you know that isn't. 1199 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 7: Super easily digestible if you haven't been following along and 1200 00:58:57,160 --> 00:58:59,720 Speaker 7: realizing who's on one team. Takes a little bit more 1201 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 7: work and research to kind of figure out those type 1202 00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,320 Speaker 7: of ones. So to a much more casual person, that's 1203 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 7: a lot harder. 1204 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 6: To throw a bet on one of those than like 1205 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 6: I'm gonna bet to Celtics. 1206 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 5: Today, Christian Bill Krachenberger here, you know, you guys had 1207 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:14,919 Speaker 5: a success, by the way, and that's just you guys, 1208 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,600 Speaker 5: the industry as whole. I do searches on and I 1209 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 5: see that the Super Bowl was very successful for the 1210 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 5: sports books this year. Coach to coach, and I'm wondering, now, 1211 00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,720 Speaker 5: your next big event would it be March Madness that 1212 00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:34,080 Speaker 5: first week, that first Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Would that 1213 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 5: be the next biggest volume event for for you guys 1214 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:39,439 Speaker 5: or is it something else? 1215 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, and now it's it's March Madness. It's the next 1216 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 7: like really big one that we start to plan for. 1217 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 7: You know, the two big events that we do like 1218 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:50,919 Speaker 7: really plan ahead for things in Super Bowl and March 1219 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:51,600 Speaker 7: madn this week. 1220 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 6: And you know that takes a not as comparable to 1221 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 6: a Super Bowl handle, but it does take it funds. 1222 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 6: But do you need to credit you on your bets 1223 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 6: from this week? You were one of the few that 1224 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 6: was taking his unders. That one's cash pretty easy. 1225 01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:08,960 Speaker 5: No, thanks that that was It's funny. You might be 1226 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,360 Speaker 5: the first person that congratulated. 1227 01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:11,160 Speaker 2: Me out of that. 1228 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:15,760 Speaker 5: Christian. I've given it out on networks from coast to coast, 1229 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:18,960 Speaker 5: and I was saying before, like it's I think people 1230 01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:22,480 Speaker 5: are really upset that that I won that bet. I think, uh, 1231 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:25,600 Speaker 5: I know not to score a touchdown sportsbooks here in Vegas. 1232 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,440 Speaker 5: I speak to the sportsbook directors here, and there was 1233 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 5: one in town that he had so much money on 1234 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 5: Saquon to score a touchdown that might have made a 1235 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,920 Speaker 5: break in his Super Bowl. I'm thinking you guys too right, 1236 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 5: you had a lot of money on to score a touchdown. 1237 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1238 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 8: That's one of the reasons that that game worked out 1239 01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 8: for us is that, you know, Kelsey and sake Form 1240 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:46,880 Speaker 8: were the too big and that people were betting on 1241 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 8: and both didn't didn't have a great Super Bowl, even 1242 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,240 Speaker 8: with the eaglesh winning safe one was very quiet. 1243 01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,640 Speaker 6: So that was a big reason that kept us a 1244 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 6: good super Bowl. It would have been better if mahomes 1245 01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 6: and throw those garbage touchdown, right, but can't complain too much. 1246 01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, Christian, I'm always curious what's good for 1247 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 4: you guys going forward, because take a better like crack. 1248 01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:11,440 Speaker 4: He always says this. He wants to align himself with 1249 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 4: the book maker because, as he said, God protects the bookmakers, right, 1250 01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:18,800 Speaker 4: and so if you look forward, it was good for 1251 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 4: you guys NFL wise that the Lions didn't win at all, Right, 1252 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 4: you had a lot of exposure. Same kind of thinking 1253 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 4: basketball wise, what would be good for you guys, either 1254 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:31,880 Speaker 4: March Madness or NBA where you guys are probably be 1255 01:01:31,880 --> 01:01:34,160 Speaker 4: coming out on the winning end if that does go 1256 01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 4: down the way you want it to. 1257 01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:36,959 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1258 01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,600 Speaker 7: Right now, with basketball, the one team that we're avoiding 1259 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 7: is not a surprising one. 1260 01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 6: It's the Lakers. They usually take us on a bet. 1261 01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:47,320 Speaker 6: So I'm okay with the two co favorites in the 1262 01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:51,000 Speaker 6: NBA seeing the Celtics in the thunder right now, we're 1263 01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:53,000 Speaker 6: okay of one of those two wins that we'd like 1264 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:54,120 Speaker 6: to avoid, the Lakers. 1265 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 8: When it comes to college basketball, Duke. 1266 01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:00,920 Speaker 6: Is the big one this year that we know. Similar 1267 01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:03,240 Speaker 6: story than Stukes. They think a ton of bets and 1268 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 6: they've obviously been very good this year, so they're one 1269 01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 6: of our bigger liabilities than one of the teams that 1270 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:09,160 Speaker 6: will want to avoid. 1271 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 4: Uh. 1272 01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:11,680 Speaker 6: When we get down to at the end of March. 1273 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 2: Madness, when do you guys start really getting into NFL 1274 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,120 Speaker 2: draft wagers? Right now that Camp Warner is the favorite 1275 01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 2: goal number one, But I feel like just more attention 1276 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 2: over the years now to some of these draft uh 1277 01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:27,720 Speaker 2: draft waigers, and you know, with the combine coming up, 1278 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 2: we'll find you know, more people, I think in more 1279 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 2: eyeballs to some of these numbers. 1280 01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:34,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, I see you mentioned it. 1281 01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 7: Right up to the combine is when they really kind 1282 01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 7: of start filtering in a little bit. We'll come here 1283 01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 7: and there before that, but that's that's when that all 1284 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:43,000 Speaker 7: will really start. 1285 01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 6: Our you know, our draft trigger here is itching to 1286 01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 6: start getting going. So pretty much once the season starts, 1287 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:50,880 Speaker 6: he starts, uh, he starts prepping and getting ready. But 1288 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 6: we do a lot of ton dot combine stuff. 1289 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 5: And the way for after that, Christian are you're finding 1290 01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 5: a lot of action here? He sounds like you really weren't. 1291 01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:03,439 Speaker 5: On today's NBA All Start game there you find any uh, 1292 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:06,560 Speaker 5: you know, action on these sides are totals or not 1293 01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:09,520 Speaker 5: really nothing like yesterday's. I was pretty surprised to hear 1294 01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:11,880 Speaker 5: you say the handle on the hockey game was so 1295 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 5: much more. Uh, but there has to be Maybe it's 1296 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,560 Speaker 5: just early because this doesn't start for another you know, 1297 01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 5: eight hours or whatever, so maybe maybe that's the reason why. 1298 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 5: But but is there not really right now no interest 1299 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:25,560 Speaker 5: in this NBA All Star Game stuff. 1300 01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:29,280 Speaker 7: Maybe it's just me personally on my super Bowl hangover 1301 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:33,720 Speaker 7: after a sure grade this week. But now there's two 1302 01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 7: things that kind of contribute at least to the NBA 1303 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 7: All Star weekend. 1304 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:39,000 Speaker 6: Is that it's not approved in a tone of space, 1305 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:42,720 Speaker 6: so that really minimizes where we're acting. Some contests doesn't allowed. 1306 01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 6: Some contest isn't allowed in a lot of spots, so 1307 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:47,560 Speaker 6: that really obviously hurts the amount of handle. It's a 1308 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:50,480 Speaker 6: case versus that hockey game last night that's proved everywhere, 1309 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 6: so you know, and everyone had eyes on it. So 1310 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:54,800 Speaker 6: maybe that's taken a lot of interest on there. 1311 01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 7: And yeah, from like a size and total state of 1312 01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 7: the NBA All Star Games, you know, I haven't seen 1313 01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:02,160 Speaker 7: a ton right now. 1314 01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 6: We're pretty balanced on everything. 1315 01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:06,120 Speaker 7: That team Shack is. 1316 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,400 Speaker 6: A pretty big favorite BIRST team candidate. So we've taken 1317 01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:10,440 Speaker 6: more money on BET's on the money line there, but 1318 01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 6: really nothing nothing crazy at the moment. 1319 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:16,640 Speaker 4: I got you good stuff, all right, Christian.

You 1333 01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:47,960 Speaker 4: mentioned this briefly, Jeff, was Team Spurs getting disqualified during 1334 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:49,240 Speaker 4: the skills competition. 1335 01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:49,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1336 01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:51,840 Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw highlights of this thing. 1337 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 2: It was. 1338 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:58,920 Speaker 4: It was definitely a Chris Paul like thought here, because. 1339 01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:01,520 Speaker 2: I mean said it was him. 1340 01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 4: No, No, he was like, it's like, I wasn't rude. 1341 01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:09,840 Speaker 4: He was like Chris was rude. So, like you picture 1342 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 4: the skills competition, you have to throw the ball through 1343 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 4: a little opening, you have to weave your way around. 1344 01:05:15,680 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 4: You're supposed to take like three three pointers three free 1345 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:24,480 Speaker 4: throws and three more three pointers. And what the Spurs 1346 01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 4: did was Chris Paul and Victor webbin Yama. So what 1347 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,919 Speaker 4: they did instead of taking legitimate shots, they just threw 1348 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 4: the ball as fast as they could in the general 1349 01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:38,200 Speaker 4: direction of the hoop, just to save time. And everyone's 1350 01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:40,440 Speaker 4: booing them. They're like, what are you doing? And then 1351 01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:43,720 Speaker 4: the rules people came over and they're like, you're disqualified. 1352 01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:45,360 Speaker 4: You actually can't do. 1353 01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,840 Speaker 2: You have to actually shoot shot. But what's funny is 1354 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 2: is they said afterwards that they asked for permission beforehand 1355 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:54,200 Speaker 2: from the league of the league said yes, you can 1356 01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:54,560 Speaker 2: do this. 1357 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:57,200 Speaker 4: Wow, no kidding, that's what they said. I didn't guess 1358 01:05:57,280 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 4: that part. 1359 01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:01,560 Speaker 2: So I don't know, I guess. I mean, I will 1360 01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 2: just say this, the NBA is sort of again like 1361 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 2: itching for people to pay attention to their All Star weekend, 1362 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 2: and you had two competitors trying to cheat your game, 1363 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:21,560 Speaker 2: right essentially, right, Well, hockey is fighting on the first 1364 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,840 Speaker 2: three fights the first nine seconds of their game last night. 1365 01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:26,920 Speaker 2: What do you think is going to get more eyeballs. 1366 01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:29,640 Speaker 2: I'm not saying the NBAH start fighting each other, but 1367 01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 2: like there's a passion right with hockey that we just 1368 01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:35,760 Speaker 2: aren't seeing with the NBA during a sort of an 1369 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:40,600 Speaker 2: exhibition moment, and that that people think about that when 1370 01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 2: they choose what to watch. So I just don't think 1371 01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:45,440 Speaker 2: it's great that you're trying to cheat the system in 1372 01:06:45,480 --> 01:06:48,520 Speaker 2: an all star fashion like that in a skills competition. 1373 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:50,760 Speaker 2: It's probably not great for the for the league. 1374 01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:54,480 Speaker 4: You know, I don't know what do you think about this, craw. 1375 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:58,000 Speaker 5: I just tell you, you know, it didn't actually surprise me. 1376 01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:01,840 Speaker 5: I never actually cared for this kid. I say kid, because. 1377 01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 4: Really, you're not a Chris Paul. 1378 01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:05,760 Speaker 5: He's always been a poor sport and let's just call 1379 01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:08,440 Speaker 5: him a cheater. Even in college, he was always starting problems. 1380 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 5: I remember a game where he got suspended for punching 1381 01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:14,840 Speaker 5: up NC State. I think it was it was hot. 1382 01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:18,160 Speaker 5: I think it was hodgy, you know, like I just can't. 1383 01:07:18,920 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 5: I hate cheaters. I hate you know, they teamed him 1384 01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:23,600 Speaker 5: up at Wemby, and you know it's it's not even 1385 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:28,760 Speaker 5: his fault. I definitely blame Paul for this. How about that? 1386 01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:31,080 Speaker 5: And not Wemby. Knowing Paul's history, I really hope he 1387 01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 5: retires this year. And you know, teams stopped to give 1388 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,120 Speaker 5: him giving him a contract. Just get out of here. 1389 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:39,960 Speaker 2: Wow, man, you guys did not expect that from crack. 1390 01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:44,880 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, I just love them mosing a baseball game 1391 01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 5: that's misplaced rage. 1392 01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:48,120 Speaker 4: Wow what's the score now. 1393 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:53,200 Speaker 2: I'm just kidding it is uh oh three? Nothing? Still 1394 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:57,000 Speaker 2: we got top of it. Top second, top second. 1395 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,400 Speaker 4: All right, let's put it here, you know. 1396 01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:04,520 Speaker 2: Oh sorry, it wasn't live for nothing, top second. Villanova 1397 01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 2: with a picture change already, so. 1398 01:08:06,600 --> 01:08:08,160 Speaker 4: Already, gotta get that bum out of there. 1399 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:11,840 Speaker 2: Could be along. Look, it's a third game of of 1400 01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 2: a weekend. It could be a long weekend for us, 1401 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:15,680 Speaker 2: for old Villanova here. 1402 01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 4: By the way, this is what I love about the 1403 01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:22,960 Speaker 4: skills competition rules. The rule state you either have to 1404 01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 4: make a shot or just at least take three valid 1405 01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:33,639 Speaker 4: shots to advance. You're taking nine shots, like you're taking 1406 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 4: six three pointers in like three free throws, and they're like, 1407 01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 4: in order to advance, you have to just either make 1408 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:44,559 Speaker 4: one or just take three real shots, Like, how can 1409 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 4: those be the rules for the skills competition? That's my 1410 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:51,800 Speaker 4: thing is, this is the skills competition, and as long 1411 01:08:51,840 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 4: as you take three legitimate shots, they don't even have 1412 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:57,720 Speaker 4: to go in. That's enough for you to advance. You 1413 01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 4: could go zero for nine with all you that's oh 1414 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:04,120 Speaker 4: for eighteen. You got both of them taking that amount 1415 01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:05,880 Speaker 4: of shots and it doesn't matter. You're just in the 1416 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:06,439 Speaker 4: next round. 1417 01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:08,360 Speaker 2: I just love how this was sort of in the 1418 01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 2: rule book, like someone thought of this already, that the 1419 01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:13,799 Speaker 2: players might skirt the rules, and so it was written 1420 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:16,840 Speaker 2: down like already that they thought they might cheat. So, 1421 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,160 Speaker 2: I mean, that's not it's not great, right if you 1422 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 2: already have that in the rule book. 1423 01:09:20,840 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not great. But it is interesting to me 1424 01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 4: because sometimes cheating is almost glorified, you know, like if 1425 01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 4: you ain't cheating, you ain't trying. If we're talking about Nascar, 1426 01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:35,960 Speaker 4: you know. So it's just funny how certain people will 1427 01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:38,760 Speaker 4: try to get an advantage here or there, or I 1428 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:40,800 Speaker 4: don't know if that's true, Jeff, where they checked and 1429 01:09:40,840 --> 01:09:42,880 Speaker 4: they're like, hey, can we do this and they're like yeah, 1430 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:46,080 Speaker 4: it's totally fine. They're like okay, all right, Like I 1431 01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 4: don't know why. It's the skills competition, you know, I 1432 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:52,080 Speaker 4: actually love it. I love that somebody would try to 1433 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 4: cheat the system to win the skills competition. That's just me. 1434 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:56,320 Speaker 4: Maybe I'm a sicko. 1435 01:09:56,439 --> 01:09:56,800 Speaker 5: I don't know. 1436 01:09:56,880 --> 01:10:01,920 Speaker 4: I think you're a yeah, but I don't know. Jeff, 1437 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:06,600 Speaker 4: like the four Nations thing, comparing it to the skills competition, 1438 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,360 Speaker 4: I don't know. It's just this is just fun games, 1439 01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 4: goofy stuff, basically serious yeah yeah. 1440 01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 2: But basically they had you know, they was there, this 1441 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:16,960 Speaker 2: is there. This is the Hockey's All Star weekend, right, 1442 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:20,160 Speaker 2: therefore going All Star weekend for foreig nations. So they've 1443 01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:23,040 Speaker 2: chosen to like have a real hockey tournament over an 1444 01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 2: all Star weekend. And imagine the NBA decided to do 1445 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 2: some sort of thing like this too, right, Like let's 1446 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:34,280 Speaker 2: just play you know, USA, Canada, France, and Argentina. Argina's good, right, 1447 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:36,679 Speaker 2: am I run on that? Argina is to really good? Yeah, France, 1448 01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:39,559 Speaker 2: someone's I know, pick a European nation that's good at 1449 01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:43,479 Speaker 2: the kid of basketball? Uh like that, but they're not. 1450 01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:45,679 Speaker 4: Like, let's just do Team Europe. 1451 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, team oh, Team Europe would oh, Team Europe will 1452 01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 2: probably beat tam USA. You think Team Europe would beat tm. 1453 01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:52,479 Speaker 4: USA trying more? 1454 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,880 Speaker 2: Yeah so, but again, like I mean, Team Europe would 1455 01:10:55,920 --> 01:11:00,120 Speaker 2: have Wow, that would be good bass. 1456 01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 4: It's better than what they have right now. If they 1457 01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:07,200 Speaker 4: did the four Nations NBA style, that would be better 1458 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 4: than what they have right now. But anyway, that's what 1459 01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:14,360 Speaker 4: happened last night. The team Spurs got deqed retract to 1460 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:18,719 Speaker 4: manipulate the rules of the skills competition. That is, Yeah, 1461 01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 4: can you imagine losing a bet like that? Crack You 1462 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:22,640 Speaker 4: could bet on that thing, You could bet on the 1463 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:26,160 Speaker 4: skills competition. Yeah, and you're probably like, that's right, Spurs 1464 01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:28,920 Speaker 4: best time, and then they're like, yeah, you're d cued 1465 01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:32,639 Speaker 4: and you lose your bet. Also, I'm sure people literally 1466 01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:33,559 Speaker 4: lost money last week. 1467 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:35,599 Speaker 2: I'm pretty degenerated. I gotta find the person who bets 1468 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:37,080 Speaker 2: on the skills competition? Was that you, Brian? 1469 01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:40,080 Speaker 4: No, I didn't bet on that.

Just look at 1487 01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:34,800 Speaker 5: the entire market, there's seventy three and a half is 1488 01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:37,840 Speaker 5: the lowest out there, even the seventy four on my screen, 1489 01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 5: which I have the lines from every sportsbook in the world. 1490 01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:44,360 Speaker 5: How can MGM be the outlier there with seventy two 1491 01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:47,200 Speaker 5: and a half? Do they know something or are they 1492 01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 5: slow to move so they have the only seventy two 1493 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,439 Speaker 5: and a half is at the GM. Just something I 1494 01:12:52,479 --> 01:12:54,760 Speaker 5: look at all the time. I look at these things, 1495 01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:57,759 Speaker 5: things like how why are they at such a different 1496 01:12:57,760 --> 01:13:01,280 Speaker 5: line than everywhere else I would think they might be. 1497 01:13:01,320 --> 01:13:04,240 Speaker 5: It might be a slight edge, but it's so small 1498 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:07,080 Speaker 5: that you know one point on something like this, But 1499 01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:09,080 Speaker 5: they are If you're looking to bet over. That's the 1500 01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,759 Speaker 5: only place you'd bet over is bet MGM. Team Shack 1501 01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:16,160 Speaker 5: seventy two and a half five to one, money line 1502 01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:17,880 Speaker 5: six and a half point favorite minus six and a 1503 01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:22,040 Speaker 5: half minus fifteen. Like Christian said, they're getting all the money. 1504 01:13:22,439 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 5: They're actually minus a dollar six and a half minus 1505 01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:28,479 Speaker 5: a dollar fifteen because they just don't want any more 1506 01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 5: money on Team Shack here. 1507 01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:32,599 Speaker 2: So just to let you guys know, right, nothing Michigan. 1508 01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 4: Okay, all right, I forget about that one. 1509 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 5: On to the next bet. 1510 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:39,519 Speaker 4: It's right, flush it. It's kind of interesting what you 1511 01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:42,160 Speaker 4: said right there, though, Crack. It gets my mind working 1512 01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 4: where think about this. The target score is forty so 1513 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 4: you just said, right, minus six and a half for 1514 01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:51,599 Speaker 4: Team Shack, and the total is seventy two and a half. Right, 1515 01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:52,679 Speaker 4: that's what we have. 1516 01:13:53,120 --> 01:13:54,799 Speaker 5: That's think about at bet MGM. 1517 01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:58,439 Speaker 4: Yes, so think about it. If you're on for some reason, 1518 01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 4: if you're on Team Candice, right, you're on the underdog, 1519 01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:03,840 Speaker 4: what you would want to do is bet the under 1520 01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:07,000 Speaker 4: because think about this, it's a target score of forty. 1521 01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:09,280 Speaker 4: I guess you could go over that. I get you 1522 01:14:09,280 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 4: could have thirty nine and hit a three and have 1523 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,439 Speaker 4: forty two. That's something to keep it. That does change 1524 01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:16,880 Speaker 4: the math right there. But what I was thinking of, 1525 01:14:17,040 --> 01:14:20,519 Speaker 4: if the winning team hits forty exactly, it's almost like 1526 01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:23,080 Speaker 4: you're getting an extra point, you know what I'm saying. 1527 01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:24,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, right. 1528 01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 4: Like if you're on team Candas, you would take the 1529 01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:27,280 Speaker 4: under of the game. 1530 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:30,240 Speaker 5: Because if I want to be on the sportsbook side, 1531 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 5: the sportsbook's rooting for Team Candace. That's what I guess 1532 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:34,559 Speaker 5: I'll root for. Yeah, but not that I'm rooting for 1533 01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:37,040 Speaker 5: them to win. But I'm just that if I lean anything, 1534 01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:38,960 Speaker 5: I would lean against the public. You guys know how 1535 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:39,400 Speaker 5: I bet? 1536 01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, we know how you get down here.

Odds are he's taken that first shot, 1566 01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:20,000 Speaker 5: So let's take him at plus five to life. 1567 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:24,479 Speaker 2: Oh okay, right now, I'm trying to fund this year, 1568 01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:30,479 Speaker 2: but MGM, buddy, I like it. So okay. I like 1569 01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 2: Scottie Scheffler to shoot sixty nine or lower today, minus 1570 01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:35,760 Speaker 2: one twenty five on the bead MGM mapp as I 1571 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:40,200 Speaker 2: mentioned yesterday, seventy six not good. Worst rounds is twenty 1572 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 2: twenty two. I mean he bounces back to the Another 1573 01:16:42,439 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 2: one that I saw that interest me for golf here 1574 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:53,840 Speaker 2: is Lundvic Oberg to be the top European score minus 1575 01:16:53,840 --> 01:16:57,679 Speaker 2: one sixty five. He's got a well if three Charlie 1576 01:16:57,720 --> 01:17:00,720 Speaker 2: gets Rory, two Charlie gets Fleetwood. I don't think those 1577 01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 2: guys are catching him. So those are two that are 1578 01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 2: like four today on the golf side, I tried my 1579 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:09,680 Speaker 2: best to find you some college basketball once m h 1580 01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:15,960 Speaker 2: it gonna happen. So no, all right, I'm I watched 1581 01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:19,160 Speaker 2: enough golf to make educated guesses here. I can't the 1582 01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:21,519 Speaker 2: player part market for Ohio State, Michigan. I don't know 1583 01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:24,200 Speaker 2: what to tell you, So I'll let I'll you. 1584 01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:28,800 Speaker 4: Brian, I'll take a stab at it. I'm gonna look 1585 01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:31,640 Speaker 4: at this Creighton Saint John's games. Give me Steven Ashworth 1586 01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:35,200 Speaker 4: three point shots, I'll take over two and a half. 1587 01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 4: He's been hot lately. He's hit three in like five 1588 01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:43,120 Speaker 4: of the last six games. So outside shooting for Creighton 1589 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 4: against the Johnnies, I'll take Steven Ashworth to rise up 1590 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,840 Speaker 4: in the garden over there. I was interested in maybe 1591 01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:56,080 Speaker 4: taking Colockbrenner with the rebounds there. Yes, it's juice to 1592 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:58,680 Speaker 4: the over eight and a half. He's averaged nine rebounds 1593 01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:01,280 Speaker 4: per game the last ten game games. But man, the 1594 01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 4: Johnny's rebounding wise, that's they get after it on the board. 1595 01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 4: So I'd rather go with Ashworth from distance than cock Renner. 1596 01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 4: Of course, the plus money got caught my attention. I 1597 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:15,679 Speaker 4: just I don't like taking over eight and a half 1598 01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 4: rebounds against the Johnny, so I'll go with ashworths over everything. 1599 01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:23,640 Speaker 2: En, Jeff, I'm totally in. 1600 01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:25,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, it doesn't sound it sounds like you. 1601 01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 2: For you for refreshing the baseball game quickly because they 1602 01:18:31,160 --> 01:18:34,400 Speaker 2: keep it, keeps trying me out on me top three 1603 01:18:34,560 --> 01:18:36,600 Speaker 2: five nothing, So we've even out, even keeping out a 1604 01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:40,880 Speaker 2: little bit. We're okay, Yeah, yeah, we're you've run a 1605 01:18:40,880 --> 01:18:41,240 Speaker 2: little bit. 1606 01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 4: Baseball is such a funny game, crack. I'm sure you've 1607 01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:47,880 Speaker 4: won many bets this way. I've won bets this way 1608 01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:52,080 Speaker 4: where it's an MLB game and you're on under eight 1609 01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:56,120 Speaker 4: and a half show, it's like second to one in 1610 01:18:56,200 --> 01:19:00,200 Speaker 4: the third inning. You're like, this is nothing, nothing but 1611 01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:02,880 Speaker 4: goose eggs the rest of the way, like these MLB 1612 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:06,320 Speaker 4: games will just die, no more runs. When you think 1613 01:19:06,360 --> 01:19:07,320 Speaker 4: it's not gonna stop. 1614 01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:10,639 Speaker 2: The opposite happens too, where you just have the severnwhere 1615 01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:16,439 Speaker 2: cushion the eighth inning and the bullped just allows a lot, 1616 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:21,120 Speaker 2: a lot, a lot a lot of of runts baseball. 1617 01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:23,880 Speaker 2: It's a long season, though. You can't get two up 1618 01:19:23,880 --> 01:19:24,240 Speaker 2: and down. 1619 01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:29,200 Speaker 4: Yeah that could like the extra innings, can it could 1620 01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:31,960 Speaker 4: be one. It could be one to one in extras, 1621 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:35,760 Speaker 4: you know, and you're under is looking beautiful until it's not. 1622 01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 2: Start that runner on second base, right, because you're mostly 1623 01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:44,360 Speaker 2: gonna score at least one, right, Yeah, and then you 1624 01:19:44,439 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 2: other team scores one. Now you're there, you're eleventh inning. 1625 01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:49,280 Speaker 2: It just continues to go and goes. Bet you two, 1626 01:19:49,280 --> 01:19:51,360 Speaker 2: you run out of pitching like given day. 1627 01:19:51,760 --> 01:19:51,920 Speaker 4: You know. 1628 01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:54,520 Speaker 5: That's why it's hard to it's hard to bet basketball 1629 01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:57,840 Speaker 5: and watch the full game because always the teams are 1630 01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:00,200 Speaker 5: going back and forth. Very unusual yesterday's game and the 1631 01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:03,400 Speaker 5: over in Alabama when one team dominates from you know, 1632 01:20:04,120 --> 01:20:07,240 Speaker 5: in the beginning of agandas ye, yeah, but it seems 1633 01:20:07,240 --> 01:20:09,080 Speaker 5: like it's always the last two minutes that you could 1634 01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:10,920 Speaker 5: just stick on the last two minutes and watch, you 1635 01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:13,840 Speaker 5: know where baseball I kind of enjoy. Well, you know, 1636 01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:16,320 Speaker 5: I grew up with boxing and baseball, so my two 1637 01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:18,280 Speaker 5: sports I grew up with back on the East Coast. 1638 01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:18,920 Speaker 6: Uh. 1639 01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:21,519 Speaker 5: You know, it never was really an NFL fan until 1640 01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 5: I started betting it. So back to back to where 1641 01:20:25,200 --> 01:20:27,000 Speaker 5: it all started. Here we be going to some games in 1642 01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:29,679 Speaker 5: Peco and San Diego and stuff. I enjoy baseball season. 1643 01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:30,919 Speaker 4: You go very nice? 1644 01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:31,320 Speaker 5: All right? 1645 01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:35,480 Speaker 4: Coming up next, there was a really good accomplishment yesterday, 1646 01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 4: and it makes us think about a comparison. We'll throw 1647 01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:44,240 Speaker 4: your way next. What is going on? Happy Sunday to 1648 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 4: you as we get just said for some college hoops, 1649 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:53,360 Speaker 4: maybe a little NBA All Star weekend. Huh and uh. 1650 01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:56,600 Speaker 4: We can't turn our backs on ball. We'll get to 1651 01:20:56,680 --> 01:21:00,719 Speaker 4: some football talk here in this hour, but let's start 1652 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:04,120 Speaker 4: this off with really good accomplishment by Michigan State had 1653 01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:09,479 Speaker 4: basketball coach Tom Izzo, so Sparti. They went on a 1654 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,479 Speaker 4: run at the end of the game against Illinois. They 1655 01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:16,759 Speaker 4: were fantastic down the stretch. They actually outscored Illinois fifteen 1656 01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:21,040 Speaker 4: to nothing the final seven minutes of the game. So 1657 01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:24,080 Speaker 4: Michigan State, they got a nice road win, and you 1658 01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:27,360 Speaker 4: had tom Izzo. He passed Bob Knight. So Tom Mizzo 1659 01:21:27,400 --> 01:21:31,080 Speaker 4: has the most wins in Big Ten history. Yeah, And 1660 01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:33,680 Speaker 4: I just started thinking about it like this, guys, where 1661 01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 4: I started thinking about tom Izzo and John Caliperi Because 1662 01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:40,719 Speaker 4: if you look at both of those guys in terms 1663 01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:47,599 Speaker 4: of accomplishments, wins comparable. They have one championship right a piece, 1664 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:50,800 Speaker 4: and you have a bunch of Final four appearances. Tom 1665 01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:54,400 Speaker 4: Mizzo has eight Final four appearances. John Caliperi has six 1666 01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:57,479 Speaker 4: Final four appearances. And I don't know what you guys 1667 01:21:57,520 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 4: think about it, but I think the mainstream of opinion 1668 01:22:01,040 --> 01:22:05,240 Speaker 4: is much more favorable toward tom Izzo than Caliperi. Like 1669 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:08,320 Speaker 4: people are just like, cal where are the wins man? Yeah, 1670 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:10,800 Speaker 4: Like who says that about tom Izzo? I don't think 1671 01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:13,360 Speaker 4: anybody says that about tom Izzo. So it's just funny 1672 01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:17,000 Speaker 4: how if you look at their resumes, a lot of similarities, 1673 01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:18,800 Speaker 4: but they're viewed very differently. 1674 01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:25,040 Speaker 2: Well that's because of recruiting, right, Cal gets better players 1675 01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:28,760 Speaker 2: at high school four or five star kids, right, like 1676 01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:34,080 Speaker 2: big names, top players, And I'm sure I could search 1677 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:36,800 Speaker 2: this up, but there are more professional players I would 1678 01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:41,360 Speaker 2: I would imagine that have come through Kentucky than have 1679 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:44,479 Speaker 2: come through Michigan State. So it's viewed through that lens 1680 01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:49,200 Speaker 2: right where talent on tom Izzo's rosters are not always 1681 01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:52,320 Speaker 2: as good as Cal has had a Kentucky now obviously 1682 01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 2: in Arkansas, So your view through that lens, I mean, 1683 01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 2: look not to you'll get personal with organ, but like 1684 01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:02,240 Speaker 2: Oregon has the last four or five years recruited much 1685 01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:05,080 Speaker 2: better players on the basketball team, have we haven't had 1686 01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:08,439 Speaker 2: the results, and like people look at at Dana Altman 1687 01:23:08,479 --> 01:23:10,640 Speaker 2: and think like, hey man, you know, when are we 1688 01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:12,320 Speaker 2: gonna get the results for the four and five stars 1689 01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:14,920 Speaker 2: of you're recruiting now where years ago it was never 1690 01:23:15,040 --> 01:23:17,200 Speaker 2: liked that because we weren't getting those players right and 1691 01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:19,920 Speaker 2: you know, a seventeen to eight season you'd be like, great, 1692 01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:23,360 Speaker 2: that's awesome. But so it's all about recruiting expectations and 1693 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:26,840 Speaker 2: when you recruit those big time players as Cal has. 1694 01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 2: It's also the embarrassing tournament losses recently. Is you know 1695 01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:33,040 Speaker 2: Michigan State, I get. I looked off the top of 1696 01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:36,160 Speaker 2: my head. They're not losing to Saint Peter's, you know 1697 01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:38,080 Speaker 2: as a two seed. Like that's part of it as well. 1698 01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:43,439 Speaker 2: So it's expectations for players and then the NBA players 1699 01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:47,960 Speaker 2: that Kentucky has, and it's Kentucky like, it's that's what 1700 01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:51,759 Speaker 2: they live for college basketball. They don't live for college football. 1701 01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,920 Speaker 2: Everyone says that Mark Stoops in Kentucky football coach has 1702 01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 2: the most secure job in all of sports. When it's 1703 01:23:58,160 --> 01:24:00,600 Speaker 2: six to eight games, you set for life because they 1704 01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:03,840 Speaker 2: don't care about football there. So Michigan State they care 1705 01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:06,519 Speaker 2: about football like they're not in So I think that's 1706 01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:10,720 Speaker 2: all all the reasons why cal And is on our 1707 01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:11,719 Speaker 2: health the same standard. 1708 01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,800 Speaker 5: Yeahzo and cal are both Hall of Fame coaches with 1709 01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:20,719 Speaker 5: very different personalities, though is a very likable kind. 1710 01:24:20,520 --> 01:24:23,200 Speaker 4: Of the opposite Absolutezo. 1711 01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:25,760 Speaker 5: Builds teams on defense, rebounding and Cali Perry builds his 1712 01:24:25,840 --> 01:24:29,320 Speaker 5: team based on shooting offense. Iso is a man of 1713 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:33,400 Speaker 5: few words where Cali Peri can talk in circles for hours. 1714 01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,840 Speaker 5: So listen, I'm not trying to start any rumors here. 1715 01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:40,920 Speaker 5: But uh Iso might retire after this year. These old 1716 01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:44,000 Speaker 5: school coaches have been dropping like flies in years, and 1717 01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:47,640 Speaker 5: it's mostly due to how college athletes. College athletics is 1718 01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:52,440 Speaker 5: literally uh the nil players being able to get paid sponsorships, 1719 01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:56,240 Speaker 5: Sason one like Saban and Tony Bennet from UVA, they've 1720 01:24:56,320 --> 01:24:59,040 Speaker 5: left coaching. It's like the wild wild rest right now, 1721 01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 5: right now, and NCAA really has to set some regulations 1722 01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 5: rules before it gets two out of hand here. 1723 01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:07,920 Speaker 2: Well, that ship has sailed, my friend. There are no 1724 01:25:08,040 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 2: regulations and rules the forthcoming in college sports. And yes, 1725 01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:16,840 Speaker 2: what might happen with the house settlement is that some 1726 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:20,720 Speaker 2: of this settles down a little bit. I think probably not, 1727 01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 2: but they can't put the gend back in the bottle now. 1728 01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:25,840 Speaker 2: I mean, college athletes is where it is now, and 1729 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:28,759 Speaker 2: you're right, a lot of coaches of especially in basketball, 1730 01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:35,360 Speaker 2: I've seemed to retire. I mean I was watching, I 1731 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,240 Speaker 2: was fading the voice who had a wager on a 1732 01:25:37,320 --> 01:25:39,360 Speaker 2: small school game the other day, and I'm watching this game. 1733 01:25:39,400 --> 01:25:42,560 Speaker 2: It's again it's between two small schools, and you know 1734 01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 2: they're talking about the guy at the foul line, and 1735 01:25:44,439 --> 01:25:46,000 Speaker 2: they said the guy the foul line was at his 1736 01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 2: current school, left to go to another school in the conference, 1737 01:25:49,040 --> 01:25:51,720 Speaker 2: then came back the next season. That's not really what 1738 01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:53,920 Speaker 2: the portal's about, right, It shouldn't be what it's about, 1739 01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:55,560 Speaker 2: but that's what it's devolved to because that's what the 1740 01:25:55,600 --> 01:26:01,600 Speaker 2: sport is now. And I uh it just it. We 1741 01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 2: actually are seeing less transfers in college football, Believe it 1742 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:09,200 Speaker 2: or not. We're seeing i think normalizing out a little bit. 1743 01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:13,400 Speaker 2: Now college basketball doesn't have the same I think heavy 1744 01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:16,960 Speaker 2: transfers as college football, so maybe it's sort of normalizing out. 1745 01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:19,519 Speaker 2: But you're right about the personalities. But that's why coach 1746 01:26:19,600 --> 01:26:23,760 Speaker 2: Cal I think gets these five star kids to show up. Yeah, right, 1747 01:26:23,960 --> 01:26:25,559 Speaker 2: well doesn't. 1748 01:26:24,920 --> 01:26:27,120 Speaker 4: That's part of it. Like both of you guys make 1749 01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:29,840 Speaker 4: good points, I would like go a la carte on 1750 01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:31,639 Speaker 4: this one. I'll choose a little bit of this. I'll 1751 01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:33,759 Speaker 4: choose a little bit of that. You know, with Jeff, 1752 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:36,400 Speaker 4: what you're saying, we're looking at Tom Izzo and John Caliperry. 1753 01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:39,120 Speaker 4: Why are they looked at so differently? There's no doubt 1754 01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:41,559 Speaker 4: that a lot of it has to do with the recruiting. 1755 01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:46,840 Speaker 4: Cal has gotten a who's who list of NBA stars right, 1756 01:26:47,040 --> 01:26:51,599 Speaker 4: NBA stars, So that impacts how you view what he's done, 1757 01:26:52,080 --> 01:26:55,720 Speaker 4: record wise, tournament wise, all of that stuff. But what 1758 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:59,920 Speaker 4: you're saying is true also crack. The likability factor absolutely 1759 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:02,840 Speaker 4: has a huge factor in how these two are viewed 1760 01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:06,400 Speaker 4: much differently. Where if you look at Izzo, Izo is 1761 01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 4: the underdog, right, He's this short, fiery guy that's had 1762 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:13,000 Speaker 4: to claw for his success, blue collar right. A lot 1763 01:27:13,040 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 4: of people respect that. Cal has looked at like he's 1764 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:20,160 Speaker 4: the trust fund kid, who's the pretty boy who has 1765 01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:23,400 Speaker 4: all these advantages and he's resented for it by a 1766 01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:26,320 Speaker 4: lot of people. Where that factor's in too. If you 1767 01:27:26,360 --> 01:27:28,680 Speaker 4: look at Izo, he did have a loss where he 1768 01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:31,280 Speaker 4: was a two seed. They lost to Middle Tennessee. It's 1769 01:27:31,320 --> 01:27:34,200 Speaker 4: like it didn't even happen. You know, we'll never forget 1770 01:27:34,280 --> 01:27:37,000 Speaker 4: Cal losing to Saint Peter's, but we will forget I 1771 01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:40,559 Speaker 4: Iszo losing to Middle Tennessee because we like issoh Moore? 1772 01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:42,160 Speaker 4: That factors in heavily. 1773 01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:44,920 Speaker 2: I think it does. But I also think again, like 1774 01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:50,760 Speaker 2: what matters to those schools in Kentucky having the rich 1775 01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:56,000 Speaker 2: basketball history, They're always going to have more eyeballs to Absolutely. 1776 01:27:55,840 --> 01:28:00,040 Speaker 4: It'd be like Alabama in college football Alabama versus what 1777 01:28:00,320 --> 01:28:03,320 Speaker 4: would be the equivalent of Michigan State. I don't know, 1778 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:04,400 Speaker 4: did they was it? 1779 01:28:04,439 --> 01:28:06,960 Speaker 2: In Salman's first year they lost to like a Louisiana 1780 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:10,000 Speaker 2: Monroe type of game, but then he won five championships 1781 01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:17,120 Speaker 2: after that, so we ignored that that loss. That's what 1782 01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:18,880 Speaker 2: it would be, right, Like, that would be what it 1783 01:28:18,880 --> 01:28:21,040 Speaker 2: would be losing to sit it all when they show 1784 01:28:21,120 --> 01:28:25,679 Speaker 2: up in week twelve. Uh, you know it's it's yeah, 1785 01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:28,640 Speaker 2: that's what it would feel like. But you win championships 1786 01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:31,080 Speaker 2: and people forget about it. Also, I mean Kentucky hasn't 1787 01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:34,960 Speaker 2: won a championship since it's been what they win last 1788 01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:38,000 Speaker 2: ten years ago that the Michigan State hasn't won in 1789 01:28:38,040 --> 01:28:39,960 Speaker 2: fifteen years, right, I mean it's something like that. These 1790 01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:41,400 Speaker 2: teams have won a lot recently. 1791 01:28:42,080 --> 01:28:44,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, you have to go all the way back 1792 01:28:44,439 --> 01:28:47,840 Speaker 4: to two thousand, that's when Michigan State won it all. 1793 01:28:47,960 --> 01:28:50,360 Speaker 2: That's crazy. It's been that long wow. 1794 01:28:50,520 --> 01:28:53,120 Speaker 4: Long time, like the teen Cleeves is an old man 1795 01:28:53,240 --> 01:28:57,920 Speaker 4: right now, like it was that long ago. Yeah, but yeah, 1796 01:28:57,960 --> 01:29:01,080 Speaker 4: you're right, No, that the Kentucky thing, for sure, it's 1797 01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:03,960 Speaker 4: not to say Michigan State fans don't care about their 1798 01:29:03,960 --> 01:29:06,400 Speaker 4: program or winning. They don't care on a Kentucky level 1799 01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:09,559 Speaker 4: like that. Very few programs care on that level. It's 1800 01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:12,599 Speaker 4: very similar to Alabama football. I'll never forget Mike Shula 1801 01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:16,680 Speaker 4: was the head coach there and he was at church 1802 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:19,559 Speaker 4: and someone was asking him for an autograph, and you know, 1803 01:29:20,120 --> 01:29:21,679 Speaker 4: talking to a you might want to run a little 1804 01:29:21,680 --> 01:29:23,120 Speaker 4: bit more of this and a little less of that, 1805 01:29:23,200 --> 01:29:25,200 Speaker 4: Like he's at church, you know what I mean. Like, 1806 01:29:25,320 --> 01:29:27,240 Speaker 4: it's just on a different level in terms of how 1807 01:29:27,320 --> 01:29:28,120 Speaker 4: much people care. 1808 01:29:29,479 --> 01:29:33,200 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And again the recruiting thing, though, goes a long way. 1809 01:29:33,240 --> 01:29:35,360 Speaker 2: I mean that matters a lot. And these discussions about 1810 01:29:35,960 --> 01:29:38,280 Speaker 2: you know, how good you're supposed to be, it's based 1811 01:29:38,280 --> 01:29:40,640 Speaker 2: off of, in my opinion, we're recruiting, right. If you 1812 01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,479 Speaker 2: have those players, you're supposed to be good. And this 1813 01:29:43,600 --> 01:29:45,320 Speaker 2: is the college football thing, right when you look at 1814 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:47,080 Speaker 2: the top teams of the country and they all recruit 1815 01:29:47,200 --> 01:29:50,160 Speaker 2: a certain level, you expect those results to be to 1816 01:29:50,200 --> 01:29:52,439 Speaker 2: be equivalent to the recruiting classes you have, right because 1817 01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:55,120 Speaker 2: essentially better players you should be better. Now. Of course, 1818 01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:57,240 Speaker 2: you have years like Indiana right out of nowhere where 1819 01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:00,000 Speaker 2: you're so well coached, but you have to have those 1820 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:05,839 Speaker 2: players sustain that success. And it just Missius saying Kentucky 1821 01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:08,040 Speaker 2: have different players. It's also why I think the Big 1822 01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:11,600 Speaker 2: Ten struggles with winning any sort of thing in college basketball, 1823 01:30:11,600 --> 01:30:13,680 Speaker 2: because the players are just aren't as good. They're not 1824 01:30:13,720 --> 01:30:15,479 Speaker 2: as athletic, they're not as big, they're not as strong. 1825 01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:17,280 Speaker 2: We're talking about earlier to start the show like that, 1826 01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:19,600 Speaker 2: when you watch Big Ten basketball looks much different than 1827 01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:24,200 Speaker 2: watching anything in the SEC. Yeah, or even Ukon. I mean, 1828 01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:27,960 Speaker 2: you know, Yukon obviously this year is different, but the 1829 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:30,519 Speaker 2: last two years, I mean, Ukon's the players they've had 1830 01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:34,040 Speaker 2: just the body structure and the style that I made 1831 01:30:34,080 --> 01:30:35,680 Speaker 2: so much money the last couple years. I'm betting on 1832 01:30:35,720 --> 01:30:38,080 Speaker 2: them in the postseason too. I mean, they're just unsolvable force. 1833 01:30:38,520 --> 01:30:41,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm curious what you guys think about this too. 1834 01:30:41,800 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 4: Real fast is just the final four in college basketball 1835 01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:49,480 Speaker 4: is so interesting to me because it is an accomplishment. 1836 01:30:49,640 --> 01:30:54,479 Speaker 4: But if you compare it to other sports or other leagues, 1837 01:30:55,240 --> 01:30:58,240 Speaker 4: we're not saying, hey, great job making it to the 1838 01:30:58,240 --> 01:31:01,600 Speaker 4: final four. You know, we're not saying that anywhere but 1839 01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:05,040 Speaker 4: college basketball, which is always strange to me, if you 1840 01:31:05,080 --> 01:31:08,360 Speaker 4: go back to we just had the college football four 1841 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:12,240 Speaker 4: team playoff era, right, Like, no one's saying, hey, Brian Kelly, 1842 01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:14,320 Speaker 4: when you were at Notre Dame, great job making it 1843 01:31:14,320 --> 01:31:17,320 Speaker 4: to the Final four twice. No one's saying that at all. 1844 01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:21,360 Speaker 4: It's true, right, it happens in college basketball all the time. 1845 01:31:21,880 --> 01:31:25,439 Speaker 4: Who says, hey, ISO, eight final fours and one title, 1846 01:31:25,760 --> 01:31:28,040 Speaker 4: that's it. No one says that. 1847 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:30,839 Speaker 2: They're just like, hey, have you made in college football 1848 01:31:30,840 --> 01:31:32,280 Speaker 2: eight times? A little one championship? 1849 01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:33,800 Speaker 5: I think eight? 1850 01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:34,519 Speaker 4: Your guts. 1851 01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:36,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's really a good point, Brian. I mean, you're 1852 01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:39,080 Speaker 5: never really think of it like that. You're right, so 1853 01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:44,400 Speaker 5: different sport to sport, and you know, just the accomplishment is, 1854 01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:48,519 Speaker 5: it's a good accomplishment. But on resumes though, it does 1855 01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:51,679 Speaker 5: show that way. I never really thought about it. College 1856 01:31:51,680 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 5: basketball player they put that on their resumes and that 1857 01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:56,880 Speaker 5: many times they made it. And yeah, you know, I'm 1858 01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:58,760 Speaker 5: always rooting, by the way, when it comes to rooting 1859 01:31:58,800 --> 01:32:01,880 Speaker 5: for Final four, I'm always rooting for the Cinderella team 1860 01:32:01,920 --> 01:32:05,360 Speaker 5: to get in there. I always am not really, oh. 1861 01:32:05,240 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 2: Because it's bad basketball. They run up against a good team, 1862 01:32:07,520 --> 01:32:10,599 Speaker 2: they lose by forty, right, right, yeah, they don't. Don't 1863 01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:12,719 Speaker 2: four blood give me four blue bloods. 1864 01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:14,519 Speaker 5: You are right, they don't want I am. 1865 01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:17,320 Speaker 2: I am very much this way. I'm not a Cinderella person. 1866 01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:20,640 Speaker 2: I want the four best teams you do college football 1867 01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:21,280 Speaker 2: and basketball? 1868 01:32:21,439 --> 01:32:25,519 Speaker 4: About Villanova, right, what about Butler? Who was a court shot? 1869 01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:30,960 Speaker 2: Come on, Villanova is not a little dog. Okay, like 1870 01:32:31,160 --> 01:32:32,400 Speaker 2: they were eight seed? 1871 01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:34,160 Speaker 4: They were, they were Cinderella. 1872 01:32:33,680 --> 01:32:35,720 Speaker 2: That Syracuse made it as an eight seed. You're like, 1873 01:32:35,720 --> 01:32:39,040 Speaker 2: that's not that's not you're Syracuse. You don't count as Cinderella. 1874 01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 2: That doesn't count. Villanova's non Cinderella. They're not. You have to. 1875 01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:47,840 Speaker 2: It's programmed prestige. It's not seed. 1876 01:32:47,920 --> 01:32:51,000 Speaker 4: Brian No, totally disagree. If you're an eight seed, you're 1877 01:32:51,040 --> 01:32:53,000 Speaker 4: not good that year. I don't care that you've been 1878 01:32:53,040 --> 01:32:55,800 Speaker 4: good in previous years. You're not good that year and 1879 01:32:55,840 --> 01:32:56,360 Speaker 4: you make it. 1880 01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:59,519 Speaker 2: But that you are part of the Cinderella's story is 1881 01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:02,679 Speaker 2: that you have worst players than the team you're playing against. 1882 01:33:02,840 --> 01:33:05,479 Speaker 2: If you're Villanova had a bad you're bad in a 1883 01:33:05,479 --> 01:33:07,760 Speaker 2: given year. If Organ, for example, let's say Organ, okay, 1884 01:33:07,760 --> 01:33:10,640 Speaker 2: because we were talking about you have records, they have 1885 01:33:10,720 --> 01:33:13,880 Speaker 2: great players. If they're an eight seed, Brian, they make 1886 01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:17,000 Speaker 2: a final four, they're not Cinderella. They have like five 1887 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:20,200 Speaker 2: five star players. That's a cinderella story. 1888 01:33:20,760 --> 01:33:23,719 Speaker 4: There are times that you underachieve, right, but not every 1889 01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:26,800 Speaker 4: time do you have five stars and underachieve even if 1890 01:33:26,800 --> 01:33:27,280 Speaker 4: you're at a. 1891 01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:29,680 Speaker 2: Sure but it doesn't make them a Cinderella. This year 1892 01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:31,679 Speaker 2: if organ would make the final four? Is an eight seed? 1893 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:37,519 Speaker 5: Interesting from from because of living off of an old 1894 01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:39,400 Speaker 5: name too, I understand what in. 1895 01:33:39,640 --> 01:33:43,599 Speaker 4: State best cinderella story in college basketball history? You hate 1896 01:33:43,640 --> 01:33:44,120 Speaker 4: that story? 1897 01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:44,719 Speaker 5: To Jeff? 1898 01:33:44,840 --> 01:33:46,960 Speaker 2: What was that big kid who should play off asive tackle? 1899 01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:48,840 Speaker 2: He should be he should be in the NFL right now? 1900 01:33:50,080 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 2: I don't think NC State. I mean I guess there 1901 01:33:52,320 --> 01:33:54,479 Speaker 2: were eleven seed, right, I think they were eleven seed. 1902 01:33:54,840 --> 01:33:57,400 Speaker 4: No, it could they weren't that low, like an eight. 1903 01:33:57,920 --> 01:33:59,840 Speaker 2: Part of it was last year too that they were 1904 01:34:00,439 --> 01:34:02,479 Speaker 2: they were winning in part of it was the cinderella. 1905 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:05,479 Speaker 2: Their cinderella story was the a SEC tournament. They think 1906 01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:07,280 Speaker 2: with five games in a row or someone saying number 1907 01:34:07,360 --> 01:34:08,919 Speaker 2: like that, right to get in. 1908 01:34:09,720 --> 01:34:12,960 Speaker 4: They were sixth seed, Wow, sixth seed at State. 1909 01:34:13,080 --> 01:34:15,240 Speaker 2: That was what it was. They were cinderella to even 1910 01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:19,559 Speaker 2: get into the tournament. Itself that looked. That's a little 1911 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:21,720 Speaker 2: different to me because of the AC Tournament part of it, 1912 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:24,280 Speaker 2: and they're not They're not a big dog in college basketball. 1913 01:34:25,400 --> 01:34:29,000 Speaker 2: So I just I don't think that Cinderella as Syracuse 1914 01:34:29,080 --> 01:34:31,080 Speaker 2: is the eighth seed. Im sorry, I don't. I don't 1915 01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:32,599 Speaker 2: think that's the case. Man. 1916 01:34:32,880 --> 01:34:35,960 Speaker 5: Okay, And you know those Cinderella teams, though, the public 1917 01:34:36,080 --> 01:34:39,240 Speaker 5: is all over betting them. So Jeff does bring up 1918 01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:42,599 Speaker 5: a good point here. Betting the team there against which 1919 01:34:42,680 --> 01:34:45,719 Speaker 5: normally would be a national type of a team, maybe 1920 01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:48,920 Speaker 5: the way to go. Just think, because the public loves betting. 1921 01:34:48,680 --> 01:34:51,680 Speaker 2: Final four, it is interesting in the final four, you 1922 01:34:51,720 --> 01:34:52,920 Speaker 2: want to take the big dog. 1923 01:34:53,320 --> 01:34:53,400 Speaker 3: Ye. 1924 01:34:53,760 --> 01:34:55,760 Speaker 4: Hey, by the way, Jeff, is it harder to make 1925 01:34:55,800 --> 01:34:59,240 Speaker 4: the final four in the NFL or college basketball? 1926 01:34:59,520 --> 01:34:59,960 Speaker 5: What do you think? 1927 01:35:02,040 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 2: Uh? I mean college basketball? 1928 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:05,040 Speaker 5: Probably right, you think? 1929 01:35:05,200 --> 01:35:08,599 Speaker 2: I don't. I mean the games are so funky. You're 1930 01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:11,839 Speaker 2: you're playing in weird gyms at weird times against opponents 1931 01:35:11,920 --> 01:35:14,519 Speaker 2: you haven't played against, and the three point shot can 1932 01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:16,439 Speaker 2: change a game so much. I mean, the Chiefs have 1933 01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:19,360 Speaker 2: made it seven straight years. I don't. I don't. Buffalo's 1934 01:35:19,439 --> 01:35:21,880 Speaker 2: I mean, the same teams are in every year. Philly. 1935 01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:23,920 Speaker 2: You know, I don't, so it must not be that hard, 1936 01:35:23,920 --> 01:35:26,720 Speaker 2: Otherwise it would be it's hard. Obviously we're relative to 1937 01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:30,040 Speaker 2: what but like otherwise, you know, college basketball, it's the 1938 01:35:30,080 --> 01:35:32,840 Speaker 2: one and done situations. We're all burned as much as 1939 01:35:32,880 --> 01:35:34,360 Speaker 2: good I think they are. I mean, you have a 1940 01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:36,439 Speaker 2: bad game and you're out of the tournament, right. 1941 01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:39,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, it's a three point shot. Is It's pretty wild. 1942 01:35:40,880 --> 01:35:43,160 Speaker 4: It's hard in both sports. I just think it's it's 1943 01:35:43,200 --> 01:35:46,679 Speaker 4: funny how it's glorified in college hoops, but not who's saying, Hey, 1944 01:35:46,960 --> 01:35:50,439 Speaker 4: Sean McDermott, Bill's coach, you made the final four. You know, 1945 01:35:50,880 --> 01:35:54,519 Speaker 4: we don't think like that at No. Yeah, it's funny 1946 01:35:54,520 --> 01:35:58,440 Speaker 4: how that goes.

All right, I don't 1968 01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:16,040 Speaker 4: know about you, guys, but I gotta get some football 1969 01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:20,720 Speaker 4: talking here. Huh you guys? Yeah, football, you forgot. This 1970 01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:23,439 Speaker 4: is a sport with the with the ball with laces 1971 01:37:24,479 --> 01:37:25,400 Speaker 4: like ball. 1972 01:37:26,320 --> 01:37:28,759 Speaker 2: Next week, I'm starting to look at to watch draft guys. 1973 01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:30,559 Speaker 2: I know it is there. 1974 01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:30,880 Speaker 5: You go. 1975 01:37:31,200 --> 01:37:34,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, So I was thinking about these three players 1976 01:37:34,280 --> 01:37:37,120 Speaker 4: in particular who might be on new teams coming up 1977 01:37:37,160 --> 01:37:41,960 Speaker 4: here shortly. If you were to rank the impact of 1978 01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:46,479 Speaker 4: these players on new teams, what would the list look like? Okay, 1979 01:37:46,479 --> 01:37:49,080 Speaker 4: so we have two wide receivers. We've got T Higgins 1980 01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:53,280 Speaker 4: and Deebo Samuel, and we also have Miles Garrett. All 1981 01:37:53,320 --> 01:37:56,240 Speaker 4: three of those players could be on new teams. If 1982 01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:58,840 Speaker 4: you're ranking the impact, what does your list look like there? 1983 01:37:58,920 --> 01:38:04,080 Speaker 2: Jeff probably Miles Garrett, T Higgins and then Debo But 1984 01:38:04,160 --> 01:38:06,559 Speaker 2: also am I right on that? 1985 01:38:06,680 --> 01:38:06,880 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1986 01:38:06,920 --> 01:38:12,519 Speaker 2: That's But the thing that matters here, guys, is it 1987 01:38:12,720 --> 01:38:16,960 Speaker 2: matters where you go, what situation you're in, because like, 1988 01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:21,759 Speaker 2: for example, T Higgins, let's say us to the Panthers 1989 01:38:21,760 --> 01:38:25,840 Speaker 2: here in Charlotte. Let's talk about that. Bryce Young can 1990 01:38:25,880 --> 01:38:28,200 Speaker 2: really use that. Like that's it's a it's impactful for 1991 01:38:28,320 --> 01:38:33,920 Speaker 2: Bryce Young. He's number one wide out here immediately. But 1992 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:35,639 Speaker 2: I'm not sure t he gets is really a one 1993 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:38,040 Speaker 2: A though, Brian, you know, Like, but if he goes 1994 01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:40,960 Speaker 2: somewhere where he's like a one B, that feels like 1995 01:38:41,080 --> 01:38:44,920 Speaker 2: more impactful right for him as a player and on 1996 01:38:44,960 --> 01:38:49,800 Speaker 2: that team than being a one A somewhere Miles Garrett, 1997 01:38:50,000 --> 01:38:52,560 Speaker 2: I think only contenders are going to trade for him. 1998 01:38:52,600 --> 01:38:54,759 Speaker 2: But I know Miles Garrett wants to be in Dallas, Okay, 1999 01:38:54,960 --> 01:39:00,960 Speaker 2: his entire basically infrastructure support system is in Dallas. To me, 2000 01:39:01,000 --> 01:39:02,920 Speaker 2: if he goes to Cowboys, which feels unlikely him using 2001 01:39:02,960 --> 01:39:06,360 Speaker 2: himn example, that feels less impactful than going to the 2002 01:39:06,360 --> 01:39:08,960 Speaker 2: Commander's or the Lions or someone that really could use 2003 01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:12,200 Speaker 2: him for a championship type run. So it matters to 2004 01:39:12,240 --> 01:39:14,680 Speaker 2: me where these guys go, But just as far as 2005 01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:19,320 Speaker 2: talent and what they can provide, that's my list. Deebo 2006 01:39:19,479 --> 01:39:24,720 Speaker 2: to me, last year he had an opportunity without brand 2007 01:39:24,800 --> 01:39:28,040 Speaker 2: Ayu to show that he is that guy, and he 2008 01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:32,040 Speaker 2: did not show that. Brian he did, and so that's 2009 01:39:32,040 --> 01:39:34,080 Speaker 2: why I look at Debo as being third on this list. 2010 01:39:34,880 --> 01:39:35,280 Speaker 2: That's fair. 2011 01:39:35,320 --> 01:39:38,280 Speaker 5: What do you think, crack Well, Listen, Higgins has been 2012 01:39:38,320 --> 01:39:40,799 Speaker 5: one of the top two receivers in the legal past 2013 01:39:40,800 --> 01:39:43,680 Speaker 5: couple of years. So playing with Damar Chase still means 2014 01:39:43,760 --> 01:39:46,160 Speaker 5: Higgins wasn't the main focus for the defense. He wasn't 2015 01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:51,400 Speaker 5: getting matched up against the shutdown cornerback like correct Higgins, 2016 01:39:53,240 --> 01:39:55,439 Speaker 5: will you be able to take on the pressure eye? Listen, 2017 01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:59,400 Speaker 5: I'll just tell you this. I really think a couple 2018 01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:02,600 Speaker 5: destinations it's for him. Maybe I would think maybe the 2019 01:40:02,720 --> 01:40:05,400 Speaker 5: Steelers might be might be good for him to make, 2020 01:40:05,600 --> 01:40:07,439 Speaker 5: you know, to turn into maybe one. I don't know 2021 01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:10,320 Speaker 5: number one there for sure. So I think the Steelers 2022 01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:14,880 Speaker 5: make sense from from what I've heard of his positable destination. 2023 01:40:15,040 --> 01:40:17,040 Speaker 5: So now let's go over to Deebo. So Deebo is 2024 01:40:17,080 --> 01:40:20,759 Speaker 5: an interesting one. He's demanding a trade. Forty nine Ers 2025 01:40:21,080 --> 01:40:25,479 Speaker 5: might just release him. He's the dynamic player, he could 2026 01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:30,400 Speaker 5: do so many different things. He's a big distraction to 2027 01:40:30,720 --> 01:40:32,800 Speaker 5: So I don't know what team is going to take 2028 01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:34,640 Speaker 5: that sort of a risk with him. I would think 2029 01:40:34,680 --> 01:40:39,040 Speaker 5: you go to a proven vet quarterback team. We'll see. 2030 01:40:39,040 --> 01:40:42,840 Speaker 5: And Garrett, I tell you, he deserves to go to 2031 01:40:42,920 --> 01:40:45,240 Speaker 5: a winner. He's been the best defensive player in the 2032 01:40:45,280 --> 01:40:48,000 Speaker 5: league the last decade. Well that's pretty strong to say, 2033 01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:51,880 Speaker 5: but and he's in that He's up in that group. 2034 01:40:53,200 --> 01:40:55,280 Speaker 5: I really hope he goes to a contender, though, I 2035 01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:58,240 Speaker 5: really do it before he retires. I'm rooting for him 2036 01:40:58,320 --> 01:40:59,760 Speaker 5: out of all those street to go to a good 2037 01:40:59,760 --> 01:41:02,760 Speaker 5: team and get some respect that it deserves. 2038 01:41:03,080 --> 01:41:07,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, it definitely depends on where you end up, right, Like, 2039 01:41:07,120 --> 01:41:10,679 Speaker 4: if you told me these three players, like Debo goes 2040 01:41:10,720 --> 01:41:13,080 Speaker 4: to this team, you know, t Higgins goes to that 2041 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:17,040 Speaker 4: team where they specifically end up, that might yeah, kind 2042 01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:20,000 Speaker 4: of alter the list, but just in terms of talent 2043 01:41:20,640 --> 01:41:23,880 Speaker 4: and impact with position and production all that, Yeah, I 2044 01:41:23,880 --> 01:41:27,120 Speaker 4: think it's Miles, Garrett, t Higgins, then Deebo Samuel. How 2045 01:41:27,120 --> 01:41:29,680 Speaker 4: about this, Let me throw a curveball at you, just 2046 01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:33,080 Speaker 4: for this upcoming season, Okay, nothing beyond that, just for 2047 01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:36,439 Speaker 4: a twenty twenty five. If you add Aaron Rodgers to 2048 01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:39,920 Speaker 4: the list, Nope, how would you rank those four? 2049 01:41:40,240 --> 01:41:43,479 Speaker 2: Where I probably put fourth? No, I'd probably put Garrett, 2050 01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:47,320 Speaker 2: And then I think you maybe have to put the quarterback, right, 2051 01:41:47,360 --> 01:41:50,840 Speaker 2: I mean, it's but it'd be Garrett. Yeah. As much 2052 01:41:50,840 --> 01:41:52,679 Speaker 2: as I like to laugh at Aaron Rodgers, it probably 2053 01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:56,160 Speaker 2: is Garrett, Rogers, Higgins, Debo. But I don't know how 2054 01:41:56,240 --> 01:42:00,160 Speaker 2: much Rogers has left, and I think that his spot 2055 01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:04,720 Speaker 2: is like one place. Maybe he's not gonna be He's 2056 01:42:04,720 --> 01:42:06,439 Speaker 2: not gonna go fight for a job anywhere, and there's 2057 01:42:06,479 --> 01:42:08,120 Speaker 2: not a lot of jobs open right now. So I 2058 01:42:08,160 --> 01:42:12,240 Speaker 2: don't know what to me what suits for that situation. 2059 01:42:12,320 --> 01:42:14,760 Speaker 2: I mean, the Raiders stand out to me is that 2060 01:42:14,880 --> 01:42:18,639 Speaker 2: team that sort of is the team I see making 2061 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:23,200 Speaker 2: sense for the season for him, So he would have 2062 01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:25,000 Speaker 2: packed them, I think in helping them win. 2063 01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:29,240 Speaker 4: I put Rogers at the top of the list. I 2064 01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:32,320 Speaker 4: know that sounds crazy at first, but to remember, he's 2065 01:42:32,360 --> 01:42:35,280 Speaker 4: a quarterback who threw for almost four thousand yards. If 2066 01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:39,080 Speaker 4: you put Miles Garrett, who is fantastic, Don't get me wrong, 2067 01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:40,880 Speaker 4: Like you said, crack, He's been one of the best 2068 01:42:40,920 --> 01:42:43,960 Speaker 4: defensive players over the last decade in the NFL. His 2069 01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:47,799 Speaker 4: credentials are legit. But again, we're talking about a quarterback 2070 01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:50,880 Speaker 4: in Rogers. He's not, you know, in his prime, not 2071 01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:55,000 Speaker 4: peak Rogers, but he's still throwing for like thirty touchdowns, 2072 01:42:55,040 --> 01:42:57,920 Speaker 4: four thousand yards, right around those numbers. So if you 2073 01:42:57,920 --> 01:43:00,400 Speaker 4: put him on a couple of teams, let's say it's 2074 01:43:00,640 --> 01:43:03,599 Speaker 4: it's Miles Garrett, even with Max Crosby on the Raiders. 2075 01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:07,120 Speaker 4: Is that more impactful than Aaron Rodgers in for Aid 2076 01:43:07,160 --> 01:43:10,040 Speaker 4: and O'Connell. No, it's not. What about the Steelers? If 2077 01:43:10,040 --> 01:43:14,240 Speaker 4: you put Miles Garrett opposite t J. Watt, that is sickening. 2078 01:43:14,280 --> 01:43:17,960 Speaker 4: That is so scary it's Rogers is the he's making 2079 01:43:17,960 --> 01:43:18,839 Speaker 4: the bigger impact. 2080 01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:21,120 Speaker 2: Well, especially because they need you know, they need quarterback 2081 01:43:21,120 --> 01:43:24,760 Speaker 2: in the worst way there in Pittsburgh. The quarterback suation 2082 01:43:24,840 --> 01:43:26,080 Speaker 2: of Pittsburgh's fascinating to me. 2083 01:43:26,439 --> 01:43:28,639 Speaker 5: It just really is. 2084 01:43:28,960 --> 01:43:30,800 Speaker 2: The Trevor Lawrence thing feels like it was a fake. 2085 01:43:30,920 --> 01:43:32,840 Speaker 2: That was that was a the John Wars don't have 2086 01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:34,840 Speaker 2: a general manager and then they're gonna be at They're gonna tra. 2087 01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:36,720 Speaker 4: An interesting rumor though, even though I. 2088 01:43:36,680 --> 01:43:40,000 Speaker 2: Agree it's fake. But yeah, Rogers there doesn't make sense either. 2089 01:43:40,040 --> 01:43:42,599 Speaker 2: I don't really know what what they do that they 2090 01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:44,080 Speaker 2: have to decide to go young at some point has 2091 01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:45,680 Speaker 2: to be someone they hit with, right, You can't just 2092 01:43:45,760 --> 01:43:47,439 Speaker 2: go young and have can he pickup be that guy? 2093 01:43:47,520 --> 01:43:50,920 Speaker 2: So I'm curious what they do uh with that one. 2094 01:43:52,040 --> 01:43:55,640 Speaker 2: The t Higgins one, Guys, Brian, it feels like, and 2095 01:43:55,680 --> 01:43:58,200 Speaker 2: I don't faulty Higgins at all, like highest bitterer situation, 2096 01:43:58,320 --> 01:44:00,280 Speaker 2: right or whoever you know pays them the most money. 2097 01:44:00,280 --> 01:44:02,200 Speaker 2: He's going there, and that that's probably not gonna be 2098 01:44:02,200 --> 01:44:04,240 Speaker 2: a great team, to be honest with you, So the 2099 01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:07,680 Speaker 2: impact he might have might be less Where Debo, I 2100 01:44:07,680 --> 01:44:10,439 Speaker 2: could see him being targeted by good teams for a 2101 01:44:10,479 --> 01:44:13,600 Speaker 2: specific role. And that's why I think there could be 2102 01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:17,000 Speaker 2: more like Debo can have maybe more of an impact 2103 01:44:17,040 --> 01:44:18,719 Speaker 2: even though he gets this better if that makes sense, 2104 01:44:18,760 --> 01:44:21,920 Speaker 2: because he gets like just a bad team and that 2105 01:44:22,160 --> 01:44:24,000 Speaker 2: his impact might be less for that reason. 2106 01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:26,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I really do wonder how it's gonna work out 2107 01:44:26,960 --> 01:44:30,200 Speaker 4: with t because I think highly of him as a receiver, 2108 01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:33,640 Speaker 4: really good. I'm really curious what team he goes to 2109 01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:36,240 Speaker 4: because you know as well as I do, if he's 2110 01:44:36,280 --> 01:44:38,920 Speaker 4: not putting up big numbers, it's gonna be not a 2111 01:44:39,040 --> 01:44:41,519 Speaker 4: number one. And I would just say, wait a minute. 2112 01:44:41,560 --> 01:44:45,080 Speaker 4: He went from Joe Burrow to who exactly right, So 2113 01:44:45,240 --> 01:44:47,680 Speaker 4: it might not be he's not a number one. It 2114 01:44:47,760 --> 01:44:51,080 Speaker 4: might be he went way down in quarterback talent depending 2115 01:44:51,120 --> 01:44:52,040 Speaker 4: on where he ends up. 2116 01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:55,240 Speaker 2: And that's fair but that but that is sort of 2117 01:44:55,840 --> 01:44:57,800 Speaker 2: what happens when you're a free agent like you to 2118 01:44:57,840 --> 01:44:59,560 Speaker 2: go the highest bitner typically which might not be the 2119 01:44:59,560 --> 01:45:01,840 Speaker 2: best at you, but it's your one opportunity to make 2120 01:45:01,840 --> 01:45:03,680 Speaker 2: that big money and you have to do it if 2121 01:45:03,720 --> 01:45:04,280 Speaker 2: you're a player. 2122 01:45:05,160 --> 01:45:07,400 Speaker 4: It's crazy too crack. Jeff and I were talking about 2123 01:45:07,400 --> 01:45:09,760 Speaker 4: this on Friday. We filled in for two pros in 2124 01:45:09,800 --> 01:45:14,719 Speaker 4: the morning. But Bill Barnwell has a column at ESPN, 2125 01:45:14,880 --> 01:45:18,320 Speaker 4: and he's talking about trade suggestions, like trade fits for 2126 01:45:18,439 --> 01:45:22,160 Speaker 4: Miles Garrett and the three teams he mentions, He mentions, 2127 01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:28,080 Speaker 4: think about this, Miles Garrett on the Lions opposite Aiden Hutchinson, Aiden, 2128 01:45:28,479 --> 01:45:34,120 Speaker 4: Miles Garrett on Washington or Philadelphia. Can you imagine Miles 2129 01:45:34,200 --> 01:45:36,000 Speaker 4: Garrett joining the World Champs there? 2130 01:45:36,560 --> 01:45:36,840 Speaker 5: Wow? 2131 01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:39,840 Speaker 2: How was we make that call? That's that's that's why 2132 01:45:39,880 --> 01:45:41,040 Speaker 2: he is where he is. 2133 01:45:41,520 --> 01:45:44,200 Speaker 4: That's right, that's right. I can probably end up in 2134 01:45:44,200 --> 01:45:46,280 Speaker 4: Carolina with you over there, Joe oh Man. 2135 01:45:46,640 --> 01:45:48,360 Speaker 5: But he wouldn't want to go to that team though. 2136 01:45:48,400 --> 01:45:50,120 Speaker 5: He wouldn't want to after be in Cleveland. 2137 01:45:50,120 --> 01:45:52,040 Speaker 2: I think at this point, I don't think he has 2138 01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:53,760 Speaker 2: They don't have a no trade clause. I think you 2139 01:45:53,800 --> 01:45:54,800 Speaker 2: can go wherever they trade him. 2140 01:45:55,680 --> 01:45:57,320 Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, but. 2141 01:45:57,760 --> 01:45:59,559 Speaker 2: No trade clauses are very rare in the NFL. 2142 01:45:59,760 --> 01:46:03,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, And if you're doing right by your organization, you 2143 01:46:03,160 --> 01:46:07,560 Speaker 4: trade him to the highest bidder, no matter where that is. Yeah. Absolutely, 2144 01:46:07,640 --> 01:46:08,000 Speaker 4: I don't think. 2145 01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:09,639 Speaker 2: I don't think it's traded though. I don't think something 2146 01:46:09,800 --> 01:46:10,559 Speaker 2: to worry about. 2147 01:46:10,520 --> 01:46:12,800 Speaker 4: No kidding, really, Yeah, he's a Brown next year. 2148 01:46:13,040 --> 01:46:16,120 Speaker 5: I think so yeah, wo wow, Okay, And Jeff said 2149 01:46:16,160 --> 01:46:19,160 Speaker 5: that there's really no room for you. Think about the 2150 01:46:19,240 --> 01:46:22,000 Speaker 5: quarterback situation for Rogers. Do you guys have any idea 2151 01:46:22,040 --> 01:46:23,120 Speaker 5: where you'd think you would go? 2152 01:46:23,800 --> 01:46:26,000 Speaker 4: So that's like Raiders, Steelers, I don't know. 2153 01:46:27,240 --> 01:46:30,160 Speaker 2: He can't be a backup, no chance, it's not going 2154 01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:32,280 Speaker 2: to fight for a starting job. And there's only a 2155 01:46:32,280 --> 01:46:35,240 Speaker 2: couple of teams available. Like if the Raiders say, we 2156 01:46:35,280 --> 01:46:37,599 Speaker 2: don't like these quarterbacks in this draft, we'll just bridge 2157 01:46:37,720 --> 01:46:41,280 Speaker 2: for a year with Rogers. But Rogers, I mean, why 2158 01:46:41,320 --> 01:46:42,880 Speaker 2: would you want to go to Vegas? There's no wide 2159 01:46:42,880 --> 01:46:48,040 Speaker 2: receivers there obviously, right, But offensive line young at some 2160 01:46:48,080 --> 01:46:50,960 Speaker 2: positions could could be getting better. But it feels like 2161 01:46:51,360 --> 01:46:53,840 Speaker 2: unless he likes Chip Kelly and maybe let's play on offense. 2162 01:46:53,840 --> 01:46:54,880 Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't really feel like that. 2163 01:46:54,920 --> 01:46:57,160 Speaker 4: Do you think the better option just to throw it 2164 01:46:57,160 --> 01:46:59,280 Speaker 4: out there? Do you think the better option for Rogers 2165 01:46:59,800 --> 01:47:02,280 Speaker 4: if if it's Raiders or nothing, do you think just 2166 01:47:02,360 --> 01:47:04,800 Speaker 4: waiting might be the better way to go? Think about 2167 01:47:04,800 --> 01:47:08,320 Speaker 4: the Vikings right right? Yeah, where you know JJ McCarthy 2168 01:47:08,360 --> 01:47:10,280 Speaker 4: goes down and all of a sudden, Sam Darnold has 2169 01:47:10,280 --> 01:47:12,880 Speaker 4: this huge opportunity. What do you think of Rogers just 2170 01:47:12,960 --> 01:47:16,519 Speaker 4: waiting if it's only Raiders or waiting waiting might be 2171 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:20,880 Speaker 4: a better option. Yeah, what are the Raiders doing? 2172 01:47:21,200 --> 01:47:21,400 Speaker 2: You know? 2173 01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:22,799 Speaker 4: Like, where are they going? 2174 01:47:23,280 --> 01:47:25,320 Speaker 2: I just don't Roger, I guess I just don't know. Like, 2175 01:47:25,439 --> 01:47:28,759 Speaker 2: if there's a team that's not having success, is Aaron Rodgers? 2176 01:47:28,840 --> 01:47:29,000 Speaker 5: Really? 2177 01:47:29,040 --> 01:47:31,160 Speaker 2: What are your calls to make? Like, if someone gets hurt, 2178 01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:33,760 Speaker 2: I bring him in week two. I just don't. I 2179 01:47:33,800 --> 01:47:36,240 Speaker 2: don't like that choice. 2180 01:47:36,880 --> 01:47:40,200 Speaker 4: Ideally it would be well, ideally you wouldn't have your 2181 01:47:40,200 --> 01:47:43,000 Speaker 4: starter get hurt, but if he does in the off season, 2182 01:47:43,120 --> 01:47:45,480 Speaker 4: where you can get him in there, get him acclimated, 2183 01:47:45,520 --> 01:47:48,360 Speaker 4: all that stuff to do it on the fly. That's 2184 01:47:48,720 --> 01:47:51,360 Speaker 4: that's asking a lot. Let me throw some college hoops 2185 01:47:51,400 --> 01:47:55,160 Speaker 4: at you. It's Fox Sports Radios Countdown presented by bet MGM. 2186 01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:58,200 Speaker 4: We've got Creighton and Saint John's here today at the Garden. 2187 01:47:58,479 --> 01:48:01,880 Speaker 4: It's on FS one, three pm Eastern time. But you guys, 2188 01:48:01,880 --> 01:48:04,479 Speaker 4: think about this matchup over here. I can't wait to 2189 01:48:04,520 --> 01:48:08,200 Speaker 4: see Cockbrender going up against that front line of Saint John's. 2190 01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:12,320 Speaker 4: Saint John's gets absolutely after the boards and I love 2191 01:48:12,360 --> 01:48:16,720 Speaker 4: what Patino's doing there. They play absolutely hard. It's one 2192 01:48:16,760 --> 01:48:19,000 Speaker 4: of the best stories in college basketball what the Johnnys 2193 01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:19,880 Speaker 4: are doing this season. 2194 01:48:20,040 --> 01:48:21,880 Speaker 2: They just they lost their last game, right, they were out, 2195 01:48:21,880 --> 01:48:24,040 Speaker 2: they were winning and then they got they ended up losing, right, 2196 01:48:24,160 --> 01:48:25,800 Speaker 2: So they're gonna be a little fire up for this one. 2197 01:48:25,920 --> 01:48:30,040 Speaker 2: I would imagine, so great that's happening. I have that 2198 01:48:30,080 --> 01:48:31,920 Speaker 2: game right for Saint John. Right, they were winning and 2199 01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:34,639 Speaker 2: then and then they end up losing. 2200 01:48:34,680 --> 01:48:37,800 Speaker 4: Correct, And let me let me refresh my memory over here. 2201 01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:42,639 Speaker 2: I think I'm right on that. Yeah, they open open, Yeah, yeah, 2202 01:48:42,720 --> 01:48:44,840 Speaker 2: Villodova beat up. That's what it was. Yeah, they were up, 2203 01:48:45,080 --> 01:48:48,040 Speaker 2: They were up pretty big early. Then Villanova came back 2204 01:48:48,040 --> 01:48:48,720 Speaker 2: and got them. 2205 01:48:48,720 --> 01:48:51,639 Speaker 5: I think so lots of money on the Johnny said 2206 01:48:51,640 --> 01:48:53,320 Speaker 5: they opened up. They opened up four, four and a 2207 01:48:53,400 --> 01:48:56,439 Speaker 5: half up to six now, uh, pretty solid six and 2208 01:48:56,479 --> 01:48:59,320 Speaker 5: a half bet mgm six and a half and uh. 2209 01:48:59,400 --> 01:49:02,479 Speaker 5: I think of the uh my one of my best 2210 01:49:02,479 --> 01:49:05,400 Speaker 5: friends in life guy that I spent every winter with, 2211 01:49:05,439 --> 01:49:09,559 Speaker 5: my late buddy, Howie Schwab uh stumped to Schwab, famous 2212 01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:12,920 Speaker 5: ESPN guy and just a great gentleman that lost his 2213 01:49:12,960 --> 01:49:15,240 Speaker 5: life last year. And I was I was supposed to 2214 01:49:15,280 --> 01:49:17,160 Speaker 5: stay his house on Wednesday and his wife called me 2215 01:49:17,160 --> 01:49:20,080 Speaker 5: in Monday he passed. I couldn't believe it. He wasn't 2216 01:49:20,120 --> 01:49:22,839 Speaker 5: even really six at that at the time. But anyway, 2217 01:49:22,840 --> 01:49:24,559 Speaker 5: I think of him with this Saint John's. He has 2218 01:49:24,600 --> 01:49:27,360 Speaker 5: so much Saint john stuff and in his place, and 2219 01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:29,759 Speaker 5: I've been really good for so I always root for 2220 01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:32,080 Speaker 5: for Saint John's just based on that. But it should 2221 01:49:32,080 --> 01:49:34,200 Speaker 5: be a good one today. Yeah, you have to love 2222 01:49:34,240 --> 01:49:38,000 Speaker 5: what Patino has done there in his second year. College 2223 01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:42,200 Speaker 5: basketball is better where when when Saint John's is relevant? 2224 01:49:42,280 --> 01:49:42,639 Speaker 2: For sure? 2225 01:49:42,640 --> 01:49:44,479 Speaker 5: And I really really hope they make a deep run 2226 01:49:44,479 --> 01:49:47,360 Speaker 5: in the tournament this year. Look at to the other game, Michigan. 2227 01:49:47,360 --> 01:49:49,880 Speaker 5: I told you guys, Michigan Ohio State where Ohio State 2228 01:49:49,920 --> 01:49:52,640 Speaker 5: money line? Uh, Michigan looking for a six straight win 2229 01:49:52,760 --> 01:49:55,400 Speaker 5: Ohio State today, They're coming off a big win at Purdue, 2230 01:49:55,720 --> 01:49:58,439 Speaker 5: and maybe this is a letdown situation. Ohio State really 2231 01:49:58,439 --> 01:50:01,600 Speaker 5: needs this win to help booster tornment resume, so this 2232 01:50:01,640 --> 01:50:04,479 Speaker 5: should be all should be a good game today. I'm 2233 01:50:04,479 --> 01:50:07,200 Speaker 5: gonna stick with my Ohio State money line in that game, 2234 01:50:07,680 --> 01:50:09,679 Speaker 5: and like I said, I'm gonna roof for Saint John's 2235 01:50:09,800 --> 01:50:11,800 Speaker 5: just for for Howie, for me, just them to be 2236 01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:14,000 Speaker 5: relevant and a deep run this year. 2237 01:50:14,560 --> 01:50:17,680 Speaker 4: Man, it's crazy crack where you'll see this consistently in 2238 01:50:17,720 --> 01:50:22,439 Speaker 4: college basketball where the unranked team is at home and 2239 01:50:22,640 --> 01:50:26,120 Speaker 4: is favored to beat the ranked team. Happened yesterday Texas 2240 01:50:26,200 --> 01:50:29,040 Speaker 4: was favored against Kentucky and they took him down. Had 2241 01:50:29,040 --> 01:50:31,320 Speaker 4: a nice run at the end there. But man, this 2242 01:50:31,479 --> 01:50:34,519 Speaker 4: Ohio State team, they're weird. 2243 01:50:34,560 --> 01:50:34,720 Speaker 2: Man. 2244 01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:38,799 Speaker 4: If good Ohio State shows up, they're they're fully capable 2245 01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:41,840 Speaker 4: of beating most teams in college basketball. But the bad 2246 01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:45,639 Speaker 4: version shows up there. Michigan's a little goofy too, even 2247 01:50:45,680 --> 01:50:47,560 Speaker 4: though they're at the top of the Big Ten, a 2248 01:50:47,560 --> 01:50:49,599 Speaker 4: little bit of a goofy team. I'm really interested in 2249 01:50:49,600 --> 01:50:50,240 Speaker 4: that matchup. 2250 01:50:50,320 --> 01:50:50,400 Speaker 2: Now. 2251 01:50:50,439 --> 01:50:51,960 Speaker 4: I like that you have a play on it, crack, 2252 01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:55,719 Speaker 4: but I'm curious which Ohio State team shows up because 2253 01:50:55,720 --> 01:50:59,000 Speaker 4: they are Jakol and hide. There's no doubt, Oh yeah, oh. 2254 01:50:58,920 --> 01:51:01,839 Speaker 5: For sure that that game will opened up if spread 2255 01:51:01,840 --> 01:51:04,400 Speaker 5: wise it opened up exactly where it is now. It 2256 01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:07,360 Speaker 5: opened up two and it's two, so it really hasn't 2257 01:51:07,400 --> 01:51:09,839 Speaker 5: had much well. Actually, as we speak, the only sports 2258 01:51:09,840 --> 01:51:11,719 Speaker 5: book to go to two and a half. The guys 2259 01:51:11,960 --> 01:51:14,040 Speaker 5: at bet MGM must be listening to me here because 2260 01:51:14,040 --> 01:51:17,280 Speaker 5: it's two everywhere. Two and a half at bet MGM. 2261 01:51:18,360 --> 01:51:20,240 Speaker 5: Yeah they had they had the highest money line too, 2262 01:51:20,240 --> 01:51:22,280 Speaker 5: I noticed earlier. But now they're actually showing on the 2263 01:51:23,000 --> 01:51:25,120 Speaker 5: points to him. Just to let you guys know what 2264 01:51:25,160 --> 01:51:28,519 Speaker 5: we're doing. Countdown now for the entire season. So let 2265 01:51:28,520 --> 01:51:30,479 Speaker 5: me just tell you, because we only have a month 2266 01:51:30,560 --> 01:51:33,719 Speaker 5: or so here of college basketball left. When I bet 2267 01:51:33,800 --> 01:51:37,760 Speaker 5: college basketball around the two or the three, I like 2268 01:51:37,840 --> 01:51:41,200 Speaker 5: to buy onto the number. So let's use a line 2269 01:51:41,200 --> 01:51:42,839 Speaker 5: of two and a half. If you're betting the favorite, 2270 01:51:42,920 --> 01:51:46,120 Speaker 5: I'd rather go minus two minus twenty. If you're betting 2271 01:51:46,120 --> 01:51:48,840 Speaker 5: the dog, I'd round it up to the three plus 2272 01:51:48,880 --> 01:51:52,680 Speaker 5: three minus twenty. You know, I've actually worked in my 2273 01:51:52,760 --> 01:51:55,519 Speaker 5: life in this industry many many years with the sharpest 2274 01:51:55,520 --> 01:51:58,160 Speaker 5: sports betting guys in the world, and the two guys 2275 01:51:58,160 --> 01:52:01,120 Speaker 5: that never even worked with each other. They know each other, 2276 01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:04,040 Speaker 5: but never worked with each other. They always advise buying 2277 01:52:04,080 --> 01:52:07,120 Speaker 5: on to the whole number of two or three, even 2278 01:52:07,160 --> 01:52:10,680 Speaker 5: maybe five, their key numbers in basketball. Some of the 2279 01:52:10,720 --> 01:52:13,120 Speaker 5: sports books have caught up with it, and they'll charge 2280 01:52:13,160 --> 01:52:15,240 Speaker 5: you an extra five cents. Well not it's not worth 2281 01:52:15,280 --> 01:52:19,639 Speaker 5: doing that, but definitely buying onto the number two and three. 2282 01:52:19,720 --> 01:52:23,160 Speaker 5: I know it sounds like so into consequentially, that's a 2283 01:52:23,160 --> 01:52:25,680 Speaker 5: big deal. It's half a point, well not the not 2284 01:52:25,960 --> 01:52:28,320 Speaker 5: listen when it comes to analytics in this game.
