Snell, good early, Jay's get 14 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 3: to him. Alahadra Kirk, everybody's favorite. Five to five to fifteen. 15 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 3: Pual Man comes through again with three hits. I'd love 16 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 3: of home run, Barger breaks and open Jay's put up 17 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: an eleven spot to take Game one of the World Series. 18 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 2: Good morning, Jeff, Good morning, Good morning to Blue Jays. 19 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 2: You guys are doing a service for all of us 20 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: being the Dodgers in Game one. They're not Dodger fans 21 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 2: I'm the biggest Dodger here there can be, so I 22 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 2: really appreciate Game one. Hopefully can do it again for 23 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 2: three more games of this series. It'd be good for baseball. 24 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: It'd be good for baseball for the Blue Jays to win, 25 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 2: be good for baseball for the Dodgers, who, look, the 26 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 2: rules are the rules, They're following the rules. But all 27 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: this deferred money is I think, not good for the 28 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 2: sport right. A bunch of guys in contracts that are 29 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: not being paid a salary that is commenser of their 30 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 2: contract right now because they've deferred the money in the future, 31 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: which is allowed. That's allowed. I don't know why it's allowed. 32 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 2: It feels like it's not a great way to make 33 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: a league. That fare is the wrong word, but competitive 34 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 2: league right when you allow one team to pay the 35 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 2: players ten years from now, everyone else is paying the 36 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 2: players now. But Dodgers have money to do that. So nonetheless, 37 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: I'm glad that Blue Jay has got Game one, A 38 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: big game. I think when you are an underdog in 39 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: a series like this, and look, baseball is unique, it's 40 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 2: not basketball. You know, you could have won by one 41 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: runner seven runs. A win is a win, but it 42 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: had to feel good for the Blue Jays, who are 43 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 2: considerable underdogs and not many teams picked them. I thought 44 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: the Mariners actually were a better matchup for the Dodgers. 45 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 2: I feel wrong about that after one game so far. 46 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: So I will tell you this, Anthony. What I love 47 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 2: about baseball postseason is there is probably not a better 48 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 2: sport for crowd reactions after big plays than baseball in 49 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 2: the postseason, and crowds I love, like the Springer home 50 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: run Game seven. I just love the reaction of the 51 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 2: baseball fans after a big play, after a big hit. 52 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 2: And Toronto was electric last night. It was unbelievable. 53 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 3: And look, I thought, I said him here yesterday, I 54 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 3: thought that the Jay's had a punchers chance in this 55 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 3: series because they're punchers, because they're they have the best lineup. 56 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 3: They don't strike out, so they have a great lineup 57 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 3: that doesn't strike out, that could attack you from both sides. 58 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 3: And he saw it last night like you saw Snell 59 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 3: get taken yard by var show right like that was 60 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: that was huge, And it was preceded by Kirk because 61 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 3: Kirk is really the engine of that team. Like everybody 62 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 3: loves someone, he's five to five too. Fitty right, Like 63 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 3: he's a little fireplug man. He's awesome, but he's a 64 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 3: great hitter. You watch it like he'll stemm at bats 65 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 3: and he'll foul balls off and he'll like he'll waste 66 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 3: good pitches like he's he's got a great eye at 67 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 3: the point, really good uh back control and uh, you 68 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 3: know I thought last like that at bat that preceded 69 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 3: the Varshall home raw was a big deal. 70 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: It just well you can see it and it's no 71 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 2: grooves won. Varshaw goes yard. And they're dangerous, dude, dude, 72 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: the absolutely dangerous. I mean, obviously we saw the end 73 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: result last night of how dangerous they are. And so 74 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 2: I I am excited for this series. I think that 75 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: as much as I you don't want the Dodgers to win, 76 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 2: I thought this would be an easy series for them. Look, 77 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 2: they've been so deep this year. We know that they 78 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 2: have so many ways to win, but they have run 79 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,679 Speaker 2: up against a team that can really swing the bats 80 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: man and that makes a big difference. Obviously, Right we 81 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: talk about the ways to win the postseason, I think 82 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 2: it's very difficult to win stream together, Uh, hit after 83 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 2: hit after hit, you know, you need home runs. You need. 84 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: You need guys that can, as you mentioned, put the 85 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: ball in play and make a defense work. And so 86 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 2: look fantastic opening game hopefully continues again with I think 87 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: they probably play to night. I haven't even tried to schedule, 88 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: so yeah, but imagine they played to night, you know, 89 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 2: being able to to get that first win for the 90 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: Blue Jays. I I a thing too, man, I there 91 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: are many reason likes to show Halo Tony. But he 92 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: hits a home run when they're down eleven to two 93 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 2: I think it was, and he like just sprint around 94 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 2: the basis like this is not my time. I'm we're 95 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 2: down seven. I'm just gonna score my runs and move 96 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 2: it along. I love little things like that about about baseball. Yeah, 97 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: and he's like he's like he's he's a class dude. 98 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 2: There was a there was a bench clear. I don't 99 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 2: know if you saw this, Yeah, I remember that. 100 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there was a bench It was a bench 101 00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 3: clearing incident against the Padres and show hey it of 102 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 3: the game. Walks over to the Podres dugout and they're 103 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 3: all like looking at him, like. 104 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 2: What's he coming over? 105 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: And he like just walks by himself dart makes a 106 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 3: bline for the Padres dugout and he gets in front 107 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 3: of him, like about ten feet away and he bows. 108 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 109 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 3: Like it was like the sign of respect, and like 110 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 3: it completely disarmed the podject. 111 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 2: It was awesome. 112 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 3: It's like the dude gets it. He's all about respect, 113 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 3: you know. I mean, it's hard enough to love him. 114 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 3: The reason why I like the Jayson the series, and 115 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 3: I said it before yesterday, so it is. 116 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: The uh I can play the tape. 117 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 3: Is they can attack the Dodgers' bullpen right like the Dodgers' bullpen, 118 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 3: which is lace with starters trying to patch together. It 119 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 3: can it can get to it because it contacks the 120 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 3: Dodgers starting right like the dot You're starting pitchers will 121 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 3: Ki are pro the high pitch counts, and the Blue 122 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 3: Jays have a lineup that can drive your pitch count up. 123 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, a milk man. Anything to the Doggers will win. 124 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: I feel you, buddy, I'm all for again. I hate 125 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 2: them because I'm a Giants fan, so like there's no yeah, 126 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: of course, but I think, but I look, I think 127 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: the thing about the the the deferred payments is there 128 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 2: to me is a real concern about competitive balance. Right. Yeah, 129 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: So for those who might have missed it, like, so, 130 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: show Show hal Tani, you know, got this mega deal. 131 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 2: I don't even know what eight hundred million whatever, it was, 132 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 2: some insane number rights he deserves, and the Dodgers were 133 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: able to defer a lot of that money to you know, 134 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 2: to future ten years from now, twelve years from now. 135 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 2: That the old Bobby Bonia deal, right, where you defer 136 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: the money. And but the difference is they're not doing 137 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: with interest, so he's just he's just letting them pay 138 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: him later in favor of paying more players now. And 139 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 2: again it's inherently they allow it to happen. Good good, 140 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 2: good for the Dodgers to take advantage of it, but 141 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: it does allow them to build a roster that is 142 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 2: better than anyone else because they just show's making two 143 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 2: million dollars this season. That's not what he's actually worth obviously, right, 144 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 2: And so other teams have the opportunity to do this too, 145 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: they absolutely do. They don't. They don't have the money 146 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 2: the Dodgers do, which is that's part of life. But 147 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 2: I'm just surprised ownership allows us to happen. They allowed Yeah, 148 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 2: can you imagine And in the NFL. If the Chiefs 149 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 2: are like, you know what, Mahomes, can you just like 150 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: take less money now and then we'll just we'll pay 151 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 2: you later, We'd be like, no, no, no, no, you're 152 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 2: not doing that. This wouldn't happen because it affects to 153 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 2: the competitive balance of baseball. And so the Dodgers losing 154 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 2: this series would obviously sort of show that you know, 155 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 2: you don't you just doesn't always work. And so that's 156 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: I think why a lot of people, include myself, are 157 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 2: rooting for Toronto in this series. 158 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mentioned I agree with you wholeheartedly, but Baseball's 159 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 3: got major issues when it comes to that. I mean, 160 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 3: you can't have a league where you have, you know, 161 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 3: the top seventy eight payrolls that much higher than everybody else. 162 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 3: Just the inequity of it is ridiculous in this day 163 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 3: and age where the money is out of control. It's 164 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 3: their economic makeup is is just silly. It's it's ridiculous 165 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 3: and unfair. And I know the Players Association is that strong, 166 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 3: and you know, the whole nine and their anti cap 167 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,079 Speaker 3: and everything else. I don't know how you have a 168 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 3: league without a cap. You can't have a fantasy league. 169 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 3: Without a cap. Yeah, like, let alone a major sport, 170 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 3: like it just makes no sense, it's not. And the 171 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 3: team with the deepest pockets deferred old's money like it's crazy, 172 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 3: like nuts, and you wonder why the Dodgers are so good, 173 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 3: like you look at them and I mean it's it's 174 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 3: completely unfair. But these leagues have issues, man, and there's 175 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 3: no bigger issue than in the NBA. What a wild week, 176 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 3: Jeff it was in the league. 177 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 2: So quickly on the actual basketball, it's been good. Baseball 178 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 2: has been good. Like that's the thing that the kind 179 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 2: of I think that really stings for the NBA with 180 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 2: the story. We'll get to the story in a second. 181 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: Like the basketball has been good, and I don't watch 182 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: a ton of bastball this early in the season, but 183 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 2: somehow I I am and like Ka out of the 184 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: SLA like the Lakers, Luca and the game one obviously 185 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 2: double overtime. Okay, so he's been overtime twice now and 186 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 2: heavy in two games. You know, Luca last night with 187 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: twenty three first quarter points. Wemby is alien. I mean 188 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 2: you kidding me that that played the high blocks the 189 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 2: highlight where he blocks another seven footer like he's a 190 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 2: five year old, and then he goes down the court 191 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 2: and has the ball at the top of the key 192 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 2: between the legs, you know, dribble one dribble in the paint, 193 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: step back three pointer, like, are you kidding me? At 194 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 2: that size? Unbelievable. Basketball has been good, obviously overshadowed by 195 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 2: the arrest of Chouncy Billups and Jones and Terror Rogier, 196 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 2: And there's so many things to get to here when 197 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 2: it comes to this story. So the first part of 198 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 2: this and let's talk about the thing that that we 199 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: that seems like the biggest part of the indictment, which 200 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 2: is the poker game. Right, So essentially these individuals were 201 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 2: playing in a. 202 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 3: Ring real quick, you think that's the biggest Like, well, 203 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 3: I think I think. I think it's all about the props, and. 204 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: Well, I think that's the easiest. I think it's easiest 205 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 2: to just to I think that's the easiest right now, 206 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 2: just to get out of the way, like and talk 207 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 2: about So basically, they're playing in a rig poker game 208 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 2: and it seems like they all knew about it, which 209 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 2: is and they're stealing money from people via technology like 210 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 2: we've always like maybe heard about, like in poker games, 211 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 2: like people using X ray glasses and like the cameras 212 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: all this stuff like that feels like the easiest thing 213 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: to prove that happened right now, right, Okay, So that 214 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 2: let's get that out of the way. The gambling part, 215 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: by the way, real quick on that, Like, there's all 216 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 2: kinds of other names that are apparently out there, yeah, 217 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 2: being reported at playing these games. I will say this, 218 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 2: I've not been invited to those games. I play in 219 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 2: games like we're for a lot of money. You know. Obviously, 220 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 2: if you're breaking the law by sending people up to 221 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 2: get scammed, that's illegal and should be dealt with. Uh, 222 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 2: just playing in that game, I don't think should be 223 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 2: a big deal. You know, the names that are out 224 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 2: there for having playing those games seem like they weren't 225 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 2: really involved in any of the illegal activity, which I 226 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 2: think it's a little there, Like it sounds like he's 227 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 2: just playing the game athlete scambal on cards and dice 228 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 2: and stuff like, we don't you know, like it's yeah, I. 229 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 3: Mean exact, it's part of competitive, Yes, part of being competitive, Yes, 230 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: is you gambled the golf course. 231 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: I think I think that part of the story I 232 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: know their names are juicy. It's the usually hear Kevin 233 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 2: Garnett played in one of those games. But if I 234 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: was illegal, I think that's a non story. So you know, obviously, 235 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 2: if Chauncey Billups or any of these guys was used 236 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: to entice players to come to those games and they 237 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 2: knew the games were rigged, obviously that's a crime. Okay, 238 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 2: So the sports gambling thing, I want to We're gonn 239 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: spend a lot of time on this. So obviously I 240 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: gamble a lot. I work for gambling companies. Like my 241 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 2: show tomorrow, my bet MGM show on Fox Sports Radio 242 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 2: presented by bet MGM. Like it's a show that's about 243 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: sports wagering, I do other shows that are about sports wagering, 244 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: and so I feel like I have a pretty good 245 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 2: sense of this topic. And you know the thing that 246 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 2: you know where to begin here. The reason why sports 247 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 2: wagering and athletes shouldn't go hand in hand, right, or 248 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 2: coaches in this in this instance, is because we never 249 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 2: want to watch sports and question the integrity of what 250 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 2: we're watching, right. We want to assume as always that 251 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 2: the competition that we're watching. Any of the games you 252 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 2: watched last night and were watching today. Is everyone's playing 253 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 2: for the not the love of the game, but you 254 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 2: know for competitive right, they're trying to win and lose 255 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 2: the game and really win the game. And we don't 256 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 2: want to believe that any of this is rigged. And 257 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 2: that's where you get into the you know, the sort 258 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 2: of the reason why this is, to me is such 259 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 2: a big deal, right it is the integrity of the 260 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 2: game is being questioned in the NBA. Now, how how 261 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 2: much it actually happened, I don't know to what extent, 262 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: We don't know quite yet. But that's why it's a 263 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 2: big deal. Right. You don't want to think as you're 264 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 2: watching these games, I'm watching a game that's not being played. 265 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 2: It's the basis of every league. 266 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 3: I mean, you go back to all the scandals in 267 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 3: nineteen nineteen World Series and all that stuff, Like if 268 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 3: you think everything's fake, correct, what do you do? What's 269 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 3: the idea of rooting for your team that it all 270 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: goes out the win that we're all orchestrating. 271 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 2: So out of all the things we heard yesterday, sounds 272 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 2: like a couple of them were of this instance where 273 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: you know a player specifically a player, right Terry Rogier 274 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 2: or Jontay Porto we were in the past, right, we're 275 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 2: essentially throwing their game, not the team's game. In the end, 276 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 2: I don't know if the team won or lost the 277 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 2: games they were accused of throwing, but the fact is 278 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: they told people, Hey, there are player props out there 279 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: for me, I'm going to have a bad game, bet 280 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: against me. That that's what they're telling their friends and 281 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 2: their acquaintances in the situation, and that obviously, you know, 282 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: undermine the integrity of what we're watching right where a 283 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 2: player is is actively trying to not play well or 284 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 2: takes themselves out of a game, which is some of 285 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 2: the you know, some of the of the indictment and 286 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 2: some of the information they have, like I'm gonna tell 287 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 2: myself out for ten minutes and you're gonna win money, Okay, 288 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 2: So like that obviously not good. Part of it is 289 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: Chauncey Billups. It gives all accusations as a coach of 290 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 2: the Blazers was telling people, Hey, we're not trying hart 291 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: this game, bet against us. 292 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 3: Okay, Oh my god, not great stuff that's out there. 293 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw all that out there 294 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 3: is a lot. 295 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 2: I read the long one some you know Twitter guy 296 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 2: had a bunch of like you had a huge like Twitter, 297 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 2: I read it. 298 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I mean there was a like real quick 299 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 3: there's a couple of plays one uh where, Like I 300 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 3: remember in real time watching the Blazers going, I mean, 301 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: what are they doing? 302 00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 2: Like they're a rotation the rotation stuff. Yeah, was to 303 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: kill us. I'm thinking, like you have a game that 304 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 2: you're trying to win, or like you're supposedly trying to win. 305 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're taking your best players out of the 306 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 3: game with five minutes to go, Like it was bizarre 307 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 3: and it guy's weren't we would sit the last minute, 308 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 3: they weren't put Like all of a sudden, this guy 309 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 3: stopped playing. It was bizarre. Who would play two minutes 310 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 3: and that would be done? I mean it was completely 311 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 3: a clown show. I mean it was crazy. There was 312 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 3: a there was this I don't know if you saw 313 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 3: this guy. There was a guy in Boston. The Celtics 314 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 3: are playing the Blazers, and he took the Blazers catching 315 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 3: nine right, yeah, and there's the they're up eight. They're 316 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 3: running at the clock. It's inside twenty four seconds. They're 317 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 3: just standing there running at the clock, Chauncey Billups orders 318 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 3: somebody to foul one of the Celtics with four seconds 319 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 3: to go. Yep, he goes makes two free FROs. Did 320 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 3: Celtics wining cover? And you go, wait a second, that's 321 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 3: outrageous that you would found nobody fouls when you're up 322 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 3: eight run it out the clock. 323 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 2: It was. It was unbelievable. So that's the to me, 324 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 2: that's the number one issue, right, is the integrity of 325 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 2: what we're wanting. Yeah, is being questioned now the and 326 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 2: and again. If Chauncey billips Is did these things, I 327 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 2: think it's you know, people suggested like I think it's 328 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 2: fair like you might have to take them out of 329 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. Look, I think those are these 330 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: are offenses that you, to me, as a former athlete, 331 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 2: you obviously are you know, you cover the sport, watch 332 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: the sport, you have kids playing the sport.

Jeff Schwartz, Anthony Guar, I got a fellas. 362 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 3: All right, let's dive there. We're diving into the whole 363 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 3: week that was in the NBA. 364 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 2: Uh. Look, one of the things that come of this is. 365 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 3: When you're in bed with gambling, like they've opened all 366 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 3: these leagues have done it. They've opened Pandora's box. And 367 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 3: when you open paid Door's box, you get this, and 368 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 3: there's a lot of all the stuff that's going on 369 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 3: that we don't know about. Yeah, And the issue, Jeff, 370 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 3: is that when you do this, you're that integrity you 371 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 3: talked about so eloquently during the last last segment automatically 372 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 3: becomes in question. And therein lies the zero tolerance. I 373 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 3: think the FBI understands, the government understands that there is 374 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 3: an issue here and it had to come down with 375 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 3: like the force of God to get all the headlines. 376 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 2: I mean, the mafia, all this stuff. 377 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, half of it was theatrical, but 378 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 3: I think it was done on purpose to try to 379 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 3: scare people away from it. 380 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 2: So let's talk about the the what you just mentioned. 381 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 2: So the partnership of sports books and the leagues. Okay, 382 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 2: so obviously legal sports wagering started and may have eighteens 383 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 2: when Supreme Court allowed the States to set to decide 384 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 2: whether or not they're gonna allow sports way drink. And 385 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 2: we've seen that most are right, some or not. You know, 386 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 2: I live in North Carolina, South Carolina, you can't, right, 387 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 2: you have to go quick. I'm at the beach and 388 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 2: in the summer, I'm right on the border. I drive 389 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 2: to North Carolina, like ten minutes away to place wagers 390 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 2: and come back across South Carolina, like you did. I 391 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 2: have to do it if you want to do it, 392 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: like you just not build in South Carolina. So before 393 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 2: and still now legal sports wage drink and that includes 394 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: right right, like the sports that we know. It's like bet, MGM, right, DraftKings, FanDuel, 395 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 2: all those ones. Right, those are domestic sports books that 396 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 2: are in this country, uh, that you're able to use 397 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 2: in the states where it's allowed. Right. Then you also 398 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: have right offshores right, which essentially are sports books you 399 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,719 Speaker 2: can access on the Internet that have domain names that 400 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 2: are not in the United States. Right, Australia you like there, 401 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 2: and those have been a round for years and years 402 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 2: before legal started. The internet is why. And of course 403 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 2: there were bookies right before that, right, you know guys 404 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 2: that that that that took wagers and on the street. 405 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 2: And you know, I never do a bookie. I don't 406 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 2: know bookies. I never used one. But they're around, They're 407 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 2: still around. I have friends that still use them, okay, 408 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 2: even with legal sports wagers because their offerings are better 409 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: than some of the sports books. So you know, sports 410 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 2: wager has been around forever. We have scandals in baseball 411 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 2: and basketball. We have none of football. I don't think 412 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,199 Speaker 2: quite to the same level. There's inherent reasons for that. 413 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 2: We could talk about in a few minutes. But we 414 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 2: have seen scandal back you mentioned the right, the nineteen 415 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 2: nineteen Black Sox, right, Uh, you're you know, like you 416 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 2: know like the like there's there's point shaving scandals in 417 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 2: college basketball. There's obviously an officiating scandal in the NBA. 418 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 2: Like we've seen these. 419 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 3: From college football with Northwestern correct State, right. 420 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 2: And so we've seen asu I thought wasn't was football 421 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 2: or basketball. 422 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 3: There was also a football also football one. So when 423 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 3: you listen to those schemes, you hear about how long 424 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 3: they went, how deep they went, and the reason that 425 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 3: they often get caught back in the day was because 426 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 3: of something else. It wasn't for the actual thing that 427 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 3: they were doing at the time. It just sort of 428 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 3: got caught up and they got caught do other things 429 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 3: and that became part of it. 430 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 2: There was a lot of organized crimes. 431 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 3: So what happened is on the wiretaps they discovered like 432 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 3: the Boston College basketball which is infamous because of the 433 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 3: movie Goodfellas, and they were, you know, they got caught 434 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 3: on a wire tat talking about it and that's that's 435 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 3: how that got uncovered. 436 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 2: So my, So again, these scandals have happened before, they've 437 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 2: happened on a very large scale, and they've happened for 438 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,479 Speaker 2: years without us noticing. Okay, so here come legal sports books. 439 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 2: And the two things have happened, right. One is that 440 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 2: we have a broader access to these wagers, absolutely, but 441 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 2: we also have more eyeballs to wagers. If I place 442 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 2: a wager today, if you place a wager today, anyone 443 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 2: places a wager, obviously, they have computer technology to know 444 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 2: your history, who that who the person is, where you're 445 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 2: placing the bet, all those things right, And so with 446 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 2: the ability to wager more things comes the technology to 447 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 2: know immediately whether or not a wager is essentially a 448 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 2: red flag, right, And so with legal sports wagering, they're 449 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 2: able to catch these criminals and these players that are 450 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 2: cheating and fixing their player props or the games. Right, 451 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 2: Chauncey billup and he seems like he might have fixed 452 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 2: some games. Again, it's all accusations, so may have. We 453 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 2: don't know, you know, until he goes to try or whatever. 454 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 2: And and so with the legalization of sports wagering, there 455 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 2: are more eyeballs to every wager being placed, and these 456 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 2: schemes are caught much faster now than they ever been 457 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 2: caught before. If I and like, if I go to 458 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: you know, to put a let's sad a wager X 459 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 2: amount of money, ten dollars on a wager, right, and 460 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, I wager fifty on a player 461 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 2: prop agah, a player prop is you know, let's say, 462 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 2: let's use the Lebron, right, you know I can wait. 463 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 2: I'll give you a perfect example. 464 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 3: Emmanuel Classe, all right, which is the Cleveland closer who 465 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 3: was betting, who was throwing balls and strikes. You can 466 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 3: bet live, so you can bet whether he throws a 467 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 3: ball or strike. So the minute they start betting ten 468 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 3: thousand dollars on a on a pitch, which nobody else does, 469 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 3: it tricks the algorithm and it says a red flag. 470 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: So any of these that there's an ordered amount of 471 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 3: action on, it's a red flag to all the books. 472 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 3: Because the books are all connected, the algorithm will sniff 473 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 3: it out. 474 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 2: Yes, a good example. I mean there are other examples 475 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 2: where you know, the the you know, the Alabama baseball 476 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 2: coach is trying to place one hundred thousand dollars on 477 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 2: a college basebook came on a Tuesday, So you know, 478 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 2: these sports books are very aware of these irregular patterns, 479 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: are able to flag them, and and and you know 480 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 2: they have technology and software and companies are able to 481 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 2: you know, to flag these and and and do uh investigations. 482 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 2: So I I know people will say that the reason 483 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 2: these this happens is legal sports wagering. Yes, and no, 484 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 2: we've had the scannals like this before. There's more ways 485 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 2: to wager now, but also more eyeballs to it. I 486 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 2: would argue that the eyeballs are are very helpful to 487 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 2: to unscover these schemes much quicker if if Chauncey billups 488 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 2: again all accusations, if Chancy Billis was was throwing games, 489 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 2: he could do this for maybe years without notice in 490 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 2: the back of the day. You know, just again to 491 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 2: your point, you know, like you have a foul lay 492 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 2: in a game, you know, you know, you're like, well, 493 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 2: you know, in nineteen ninety you can probably get away 494 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 2: with that a little bit more than us having eyeballs 495 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,479 Speaker 2: to every single thing that happens. And there's there are 496 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: tweets that people are retweet themselves of them calling out 497 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 2: situations like you mentioned in the first segment of the 498 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 2: Blazers being like wait, what are they doing? And so 499 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: so it's it's good and bad, right, It's good that 500 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 2: we have technology to do this, and maybe it's bad. 501 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 2: I'm maybe not biased towards sports wager. I cover it, 502 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 2: I like doing it. I understand people that are against it. 503 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 2: But the outrage to ban wagering over this, to me 504 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 2: is a little overblown. 505 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 3: Well before we get to that car, I mean, I 506 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 3: think there's a inherenty. Here's a couple of inherent issues 507 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 3: that go beyond before we even discuss that. I know 508 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 3: you're passionate about it. So I get it, but you 509 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 3: have to admit that it is Pandora's box. 510 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:06,719 Speaker 2: Listen. I like it too. I grew up with it, 511 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 2: like I get it, like I do it like you 512 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,239 Speaker 2: I do a uh. 513 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 3: You know, media is fueled by the ad money ad 514 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 3: dollars of sports bucks, right like, so we're all complicit 515 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 3: in this thing. And I think in a you know, 516 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: utopian society, it's okay, it's all just fun. But there's 517 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 3: a dark world to it. There's a heavy darkness to it. 518 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 3: And it doesn't you know, I don't think it doesn't 519 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 3: affect you, but it affects a lot of people. And 520 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 3: you know, one of the things with the props is 521 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 3: it adds. It does add a cloak of wondering what's 522 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 3: real and what's not real. Like I just say to you, 523 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 3: I'm out tonight. And you heard Michael Porter Junior say 524 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 3: this on the podcast. Hey man, it's like one game 525 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 3: of eighty two. So if I if I, if I 526 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 3: tell all my friends back home, hey man, I'm out. Man, 527 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 3: bet on me for this one game. I'm going to 528 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 3: make you guys, can make you know, twenty grand whatever 529 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 3: it is, whoever the money is, and I'll just you know, 530 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 3: leave early. It's when they do it time and time again. 531 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 3: Like if it's if there's one thing it's it'll it'll 532 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 3: red flag it. But it's not going to completely have 533 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 3: the tilt button gone. Its just the prop stuff can 534 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 3: be dangerous. And then we haven't even discussed college because 535 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 3: like NBA is one thing you know where you guys 536 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 3: got you know, pro sports where you're making you think 537 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 3: the players above reproach because the salaries are so astronomical, 538 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 3: but A, you know, you guys go through it. 539 00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 2: We've seen good guys go through fortunes. B there there is. 540 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 3: A whole other green element to it to once you 541 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 3: builped apparently is one of them. 542 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: And then all the college stuff, the bilps think, I 543 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 2: just look and look and you listen to like two 544 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 2: mobsters sort of talk about this, you know, and they 545 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 2: say basically that your athletes have this competitive drive as 546 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 2: we know, and we're able to sort of you know, 547 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 2: you know, get into that right, and then they get 548 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 2: into debt to us and they have to throw games 549 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 2: essentially right or throw their player props. So, oh, it's 550 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,479 Speaker 2: a debt. And then you mentioned Michael Porter, and it's 551 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 2: certainly true. Where like you know, just hook your boys 552 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 2: up with a game where you're not going to play. 553 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 2: And but again, those get flagged pretty easily, and if 554 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: that's a pattern, they get figured out. And so you know, 555 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 2: against essentially banning this type of of of activity or 556 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 2: the legality of it, I'm not sure solves very much 557 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 2: of it. Again, it's still available. But the thing that 558 00:31:55,640 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 2: I I, I just I find so interesting about this. Obviously, 559 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 2: gambling is a vice, right, just like other things are vices, 560 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 2: and the outrage towards just this one vice when there's 561 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 2: not the same for other things to me, and maybe 562 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 2: it's just everyone's in the moment of complaining about gambling. 563 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 2: To me, just I find that just odd. 564 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, But but it's it goes hand in him with sports. 565 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 3: Well that's well, that's why because of the integrity, like 566 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 3: you know, guy all drugs. You know, it's just it 567 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 3: hurts himself and his family. It's horrible, right, But the gambling, 568 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 3: it hurts the game. You know, it does. Know you're 569 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 3: right about that, but you know, people seem very okay 570 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 3: with other vices and then terms of sports wager and 571 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 3: it's the worst thing ever. That's just I mean of 572 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 3: that but yeah, when one second, brother, we gotta take 573 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 3: we gotta take a quick respite. We'll come right back 574 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 3: and it will be talking about this all morning. We 575 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 3: will get to all the football and we will get 576 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 3: the picks. It's all part of it. But it's necessary 577 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 3: conversation with a fellas Jeff Schwartz, Anthony gar I got 578 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 3: to hanging out right here on Fox Sports Radio and 579 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 3: Jeff hanging out from the Fox Sports Radio studios. So 580 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 3: it with this, like, if you put the other vices aside, right, Like, 581 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 3: let's just talk about what the betting piece is. If 582 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 3: my fear is like, I think you're right. I think 583 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 3: that with it being regulated, it weeds stuff like this 584 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 3: app like it makes the game. You know, it can 585 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 3: help with integrity, right, And you're right that in years past, 586 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 3: especially before the salary boom, right where guys you know, 587 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 3: they were easier to get to absolutely right, and and 588 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 3: now but now with like we got to we have 589 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 3: other issues with it, like wealth gap in society. Uh, 590 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 3: and with all that stuff going on, you had thought 591 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 3: that the players were impervious to it because of salaries. 592 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 3: And I think it's I think it's fair to say 593 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 3: for the most part, the the my my biggest fear 594 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 3: with the whole thing, because I could see I could 595 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 3: see both of it is with gambling losing its stigma 596 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 3: around sports, are we creating a country of young action junkies? 597 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 2: Right? Like? 598 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 3: You know you know, like listen, you know I love 599 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 3: it too, Like it's it's it's it's you gotta be 600 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 3: careful because it's I'm a competitive person, right Like, so 601 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 3: I played sports my whole didn't play at your level, 602 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 3: but I played my whole life. Love it like I'm 603 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 3: my whole life sports I did. I love everything about it. 604 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 3: I love competition. Yeah, and that's part of it, right, Like, 605 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 3: like I have to tell I have to tell you 606 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 3: a story. My son who's twelve, who's a sports kid. 607 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 3: I hear him say he got where. I was watching 608 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,280 Speaker 3: a game and he says like, I got thirty thousand 609 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 3: on the Tigers. And I go, what what are you 610 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 3: talking about? And he goes, oh, yeah, daddyah and uh 611 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 3: he goes yeah, I got thirty thousand on the Tigers 612 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 3: and the school ball And I go, wait a second, 613 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:40,479 Speaker 3: what do you what do you what are you talking about? 614 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 2: So he shows me his phone and there's an app. 615 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 3: Now obviously it's not real money, but it's an app, 616 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,799 Speaker 3: and all it is is a gateway to this thing. 617 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 3: So I had a whole conversation about it, and you know, 618 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,919 Speaker 3: and I got rid of the app and the whole 619 00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 3: nine like that. That's that's awful, right, like the play money. 620 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,240 Speaker 2: And here's the issue. 621 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 3: They got kids get in trouble maxing out credit cards 622 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 3: and not only knows what else because you start off 623 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 3: with a fifty dollars SGP and it's fun or whatever 624 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 3: it is, or five dollars and it becomes fifteen and 625 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 3: it's the next thing you know, you're you're you're stuck. 626 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 2: And that's my. 627 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 3: Fear with it being above board, I do like I 628 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 3: see what you see, Like, I think it could be 629 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 3: a good I say good, but I think it can 630 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,320 Speaker 3: be helpful in keeping the integrity. 631 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 2: Now, college is a whole other thing, right, And there's 632 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 2: a scandal with Eastern Mission basketball. But again, in the 633 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,359 Speaker 2: college basketball world, wheres I think it's easiest to do 634 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 2: any of this stuff. It gets caught pretty quick. Again, 635 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 2: I mean that it happens, it's happening. But also you know, 636 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 2: when you read the stories about happening in college basketball, 637 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 2: it's like we notice two games and we stopped taking 638 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 2: money on those games. It's happens fairly quickly now, right. 639 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 2: But college basketball, because they're so many games, right and 640 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,799 Speaker 2: on a given weekend or night weeknight, the players are 641 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 2: not getting as much nil as football players, and football 642 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 2: is like I think, nearly possible to fix. Anyways, it 643 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 2: just ends up being in a situation where college basketball 644 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 2: is right for this. And again when we hear about 645 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 2: college basketball, it's always like the Eastern Michigan's right, and 646 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 2: the smaller schools there was a whole scandal right now, 647 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 2: the investigation to I think even a smaller conference right, 648 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 2: because you can manipulate those a little bit more. Look 649 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 2: as far as the kids, right, worry about the kids, Okay, 650 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 2: I believe, and I think you agree with me, Like 651 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 2: it's a you mentioned your job as a parent, right 652 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 2: and you talk to your son about it, that it's 653 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 2: our my job as a parent to talk to my 654 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,439 Speaker 2: kids about sports wagering. Obviously, I do it. My kids 655 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 2: know I do it. I discuss the pros and cons 656 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 2: with them about I talked to them about all the 657 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 2: time about wagering. Only the amount that you can afford 658 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 2: to lose right and being able to stop if needed, 659 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 2: and all those things. Same with I would imagine those 660 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 2: discussions have kids when it comes time to drinking right 661 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 2: and and other things that they can get into as teenagers. 662 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 2: You know it's our job to do that. I don't 663 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 2: know if it's the regulator's job to do that for 664 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 2: us as parents. Now, if you remove those devices, if 665 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 2: you're advices, they're not, They're not obviously there for us 666 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 2: to talk about. But just like anything else, addiction is terrible. 667 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 2: But does that mean that, like we just eliminate the 668 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 2: whole thing, you know what I mean, Like I I 669 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 2: don't believe in that. I'll be honest with you, I 670 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 2: don't know. 671 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 3: I mean if you ask me, If you ask me 672 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,959 Speaker 3: like you would like see it very similarly. But when 673 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:46,800 Speaker 3: you embra when a society embrace stuff and normalizes stuff, 674 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 3: is it to the detriment? Like if you open if 675 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 3: more people know about this stuff, like it was always there, 676 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 3: I could tell you, like you said, it's been there. 677 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 3: I grew up in the neighborhood where there's a booking 678 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 3: on every corner, right like in South Philly, like it. 679 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 2: Was part of it. Speaking about South there's a documentary 680 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 2: on Netflix right now about the Philly Mob. Yeah, I 681 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 2: have you watched it? It's good. I mean I don't 682 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 2: I don't know any about the Philly Mob, just learning 683 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 2: it from the documentary, any any truth to what I'm 684 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 2: It's good. Did you watch it yet? Yeah? You know, 685 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 2: I know, I grew up in that world, so I 686 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 2: kind of know it. Oh, it's it's a good show. 687 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 2: I don't know nothing. I knew nothing about the Philly Mob. Yeah, 688 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 2: so watching it. 689 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 3: I actually wrote a scripted version of it around it. 690 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 2: But there are some characters in this documentary that are like, yeah, 691 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 2: that's a Philly gangster. Like they're very like You're like, oh, yeah, okay, 692 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 2: he fits the mold. 693 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I know, like you know, yeah, I was 694 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 3: just some square kid around so I you know. 695 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 2: I'm sure you saw Yeah, no, I know, but like 696 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,800 Speaker 2: you know, you just don in any. 697 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 3: Neighborhood, you know, like you know, it's like at New York, 698 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 3: it's you know, it's part of that whole world. But yeah, 699 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 3: I mean, well, I'm sure we'll dive into it even further. 700 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 3: It's just I worry about the society and that embraces 701 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 3: any of that stuff, right, like, I'm not saying we're 702 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 3: gonna be Puritans, but I just gotta be careful. 703 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,759 Speaker 2: Where the fellas right here?

But I want to 715 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:10,439 Speaker 2: mix it in some football here. 716 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 3: And you saw one team with a franchise quarterback and 717 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 3: the other with not a franchise quarterback. Oh god, jep oh. 718 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 3: I feel bad for Vikings fans that have to deal 719 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:27,720 Speaker 3: with that. Oh. 720 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:34,760 Speaker 2: So, the NFL is such interesting sport. It's a sport 721 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 2: where you can't you shouldn't. You can you shouldn't judge 722 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 2: teams off one week performances, right right. The charge are a 723 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 2: great example. They played the Colts on Sunday and got 724 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,839 Speaker 2: destroyed right like. It wasn't even a fair a fair game. 725 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 2: It just it just wasn't. It wasn't it wasn't fair. 726 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,280 Speaker 2: They lost thirty eight twenty four, and again that honestly 727 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 2: wasn't even that close, okay, And then they come on 728 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 2: Thursday on Thursday and dominate the Vikings, who defensively still 729 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 2: good right, offensively their challenge at the moment, and the 730 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 2: Chargers look like a much better team. Now. Part of 731 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 2: that was they got they got much healthier the offensive line, 732 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 2: Joe Alt back, and that makes a big difference for them. 733 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 2: An the you know, the the younger players on offense 734 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 2: are starting to figure things out. And they were without 735 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 2: Derwood James for a good portion of that game. He 736 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 2: got hurt. He had played every step of the season 737 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 2: until then. But Phil Mack is back, and their pass 738 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 2: rush looked pretty good against the beat up Vikings. The 739 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 2: Vikings are beat up, right. Their offensive line is not 740 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 2: is not good right now because of all the attrition 741 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 2: they've had there. And then of course Carson wentz right, 742 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 2: I know he's in a lot of pain. I get it. 743 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's football. Sometimes you got to play 744 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 2: through that, maybe they should taken him out the way 745 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,200 Speaker 2: he was grimacing and looked like he was in enough 746 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 2: pain where it was affecting his pay. I think it 747 00:42:58,320 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 2: was it would have been fair to take him out 748 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 2: of the game. But obviously Max Brosmur is your option there. 749 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 2: You probably don't want to go there. But you know, again, 750 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 2: like I feel for Carson, what's having to play through that? 751 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 2: But that is football you put in and if you're 752 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 2: on the field playing, you're on the field playing, like 753 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:16,720 Speaker 2: that's just what it is. Okay. But what we're seeing 754 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 2: with a lot of backups, and this is true with 755 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 2: Wentz and everyone else, is you know, the more they play, 756 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 2: the less good it is. Yeah, And the more ones 757 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 2: has to play, the less good is for for Minnesota. 758 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 2: And you know, they're a team that let Sam Darnald 759 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 2: go is I think they should have. They seem oddly 760 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,479 Speaker 2: like they're slow playing McCarthy coming back on the field. 761 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 2: Maybe they're doing that for for reasons we don't know. 762 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,240 Speaker 2: But they're in a really tough spot right now because 763 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,399 Speaker 2: they're they're three and four off obviously the five seed 764 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 2: last year in a great season last year, but their 765 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 2: schedule coming up is Lions, Ravens, Bears, Packers, Seahawks, Commander's Cowboys. 766 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 2: I think they're looking at it at a season that 767 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,760 Speaker 2: is going to surprise them because of who they're playing 768 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,240 Speaker 2: and really lack of production at quarterback. Even when McCarthy 769 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 2: comes back, he's he doesn't playing any football, man, like 770 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 2: he isn't playing football. So I'm worried about the Vikings. 771 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 3: Man. 772 00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:17,359 Speaker 2: I think they're in a world. 773 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 3: I think they're done. I hate to say it, I can. 774 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 3: I think you're done. They're done. They're cooked. As the 775 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 3: kids say, yeah, yeah, they're done. I just don't the schedule. 776 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,040 Speaker 3: I went through it yesterday. We were talking about the 777 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 3: landscape of the NFC, and I don't see how you 778 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:42,760 Speaker 3: overcome this. And the problem is their defense is good, 779 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 3: but it's not It's not a unit that could carry you. 780 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 3: It's not exceptional, and you just can't overcome that quarterback play. 781 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:55,239 Speaker 3: It's a shame, it really is. And I had I 782 00:44:55,320 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 3: was talking Baldy about this about Donald because we were 783 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 3: both kind of like like you. I was like, well, 784 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 3: I want to sign him either. But his point is, dude, 785 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 3: he's first of all, he's good. You're not looking at 786 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:17,280 Speaker 3: him like you know, I know he melted it down 787 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 3: in the playoff game, but he's a good quarterback who 788 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:22,760 Speaker 3: can win you games. 789 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 2: And you didn't have that. 790 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:30,320 Speaker 3: You had a question mark and the kid and that's it, 791 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 3: which is kind of egregious. 792 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 2: Yeah that was his point. Yeah, well look here, My 793 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 2: point on this was quite simple, is that you drifted J. J. 794 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:39,800 Speaker 2: Mccarth think it be your starting quarterback in the future, 795 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:44,680 Speaker 2: and he hadn't even played yet and they give up 796 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 2: on him, in my mind, was malpractice. That's the ways 797 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 2: of a dry and that happens, and we've seen him 798 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 2: before anything new and the way Donald play at the 799 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 2: end there, you just can't justify paying quarterback that much 800 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 2: money who doesn't play well in the two biggest games 801 00:45:59,000 --> 00:45:59,399 Speaker 2: of the season. 802 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 3: Right just it's just really really hard to do that. 803 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 2: So that's where they're at right now. They are a 804 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:13,320 Speaker 2: team that you know, feels extremely flawed because their quarterback 805 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,359 Speaker 2: play is not very good. And the longer backups play 806 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 2: in this league, we see, not not just with with them, 807 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 2: with every team that has a backup plays it's good 808 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,879 Speaker 2: for a while until it's not and not as happening now. 809 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 2: And I think they have a good coach, they have 810 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 2: a good ross. Now the fame of the defense. That's 811 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 2: pretty interesting, and that's what we've always talked about defense. 812 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 2: So offensively, our job is to score points, right, that's 813 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 2: our job. Duh Okay, I'm not sayingthing we don't know, 814 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 2: and we're tasked with just doing that over and over. 815 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 2: areaIn as much as possible, right, that's our job to 816 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 2: score points. And so we don't need like the emotional 817 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 2: support of the defense to do that, right because defense 818 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 2: allows zero points are fifty five points. Our job is 819 00:46:55,719 --> 00:47:00,040 Speaker 2: to score points, no matter what. Defense. To me, the 820 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 2: way I felt about this is that they need emotional 821 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 2: support from an offense over sixty minutes to play as 822 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:12,480 Speaker 2: best as possible. Its defense is obviously very physically taxing, 823 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 2: right You're you're chasing the ball carrier and the quarterback 824 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 2: and then the wide receivers around the field. It's an 825 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 2: emotional position, right. Players on defense tend to be a 826 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:26,840 Speaker 2: little more as an offense, more sancual, and it's difficult 827 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,240 Speaker 2: to continue to basically do that job when your offense 828 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 2: can't give you a little bit of support. And we 829 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:38,319 Speaker 2: see this quite often where good defenses falter when offenses 830 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 2: can't give them something also to correct and also to 831 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 2: do it. Just like with also two, it's fair to say, 832 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:48,359 Speaker 2: like again, defenses they run a lot. They need time 833 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 2: on the bench. If your offense goes three and out, 834 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,799 Speaker 2: three and out, three and out, they get tired. It's 835 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 2: like it's that simple, right, So, so I don't know 836 00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:58,959 Speaker 2: if the Viking's defense is as bad as you you'd 837 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 2: say it was bad. Maybe over did it can't. It 838 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 2: can't overcome the offense. It can't. It can't. And I think, 839 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:07,839 Speaker 2: and like we see this again all the time, there's 840 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 2: nothing new, So I think it's it's when they get 841 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:15,319 Speaker 2: McCarthy back, maybe it's different for them, for them defensively, 842 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 2: but until then, it feels like the Vikings are kind 843 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 2: of stuck in this cycle where they just they're not 844 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 2: playing complimentary team football and it's going to cost them 845 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 2: a playoff spot this season. And I I forget how 846 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 2: I haven't in my previous this year. I don't know 847 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,719 Speaker 2: if I had him as a playoff team, but it's 848 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 2: just that's the way that the NFL works sometimes, and 849 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 2: unfortunately they're a team that was too beat up. Now. 850 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 2: The Chargers are interesting story, man, because I maybe I 851 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 2: I left him for dead a little bit too soon, 852 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:52,799 Speaker 2: but that was look Herbert Man thinking about Herbert's kind 853 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,879 Speaker 2: of frustrated, Like he has these great moments. He sort 854 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:56,880 Speaker 2: of has moments where it doesn't look like it should, 855 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,840 Speaker 2: but he when he is on man, he is freaking 856 00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 2: off buddy. It is. It is so it looks legs, 857 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 2: he's using his legs, receivers catch for him when he's healthy. 858 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 2: All these things are are just it was. It's fun 859 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,360 Speaker 2: to watch. So I look, I root for Herbert. I 860 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 2: like Herbert to do well, and I'm happy that it 861 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 2: seems like everyone's getting healthy and on that offense and 862 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:21,839 Speaker 2: he's just playing much better. 863 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a Herbert fan. I think if you're going 864 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 3: to create a quarterback in a lab, it would be Herbert. 865 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 2: Would you know? Yeah? 866 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:34,840 Speaker 3: He throws, you know, it makes every throw. He's mobile, 867 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 3: He's a great athlete, you know, I mean he's he's 868 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 3: I think like you doing he is. 869 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 2: Uh, he's playing good ball. Now. 870 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 3: The NFC, well, the Vikings and how the Vikings. You 871 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:53,319 Speaker 3: and I both think that they're clupped. This is the 872 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 3: time of year where you start to kind of separate teams, 873 00:49:56,880 --> 00:50:01,880 Speaker 3: start to separate themselves and if we dive into the NFC, 874 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,000 Speaker 3: there was a huge one. The Eagles are in a 875 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 3: weird spot to defend the champs because I still think 876 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 3: that they're going to win the division. But AJ Brown 877 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 3: is not playing on Sunday, and there's a lot of 878 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 3: heat around AJ Brown. Even after the two touchdown game 879 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:28,840 Speaker 3: on Sunday, he put out a cryptic social media post. 880 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:32,359 Speaker 2: Don't I don't get him, but I mean you can 881 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 2: shed some light on him. I don't understand. Like I 882 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 2: played with Divas before, a wide receiver. Normally, if you 883 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 2: catch your touchdowns that that deva goes away for that week. 884 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 3: I don't know I can explain. I was surprised, honestly, 885 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 3: I was surprised that that came back out because Aj 886 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 3: is a is not tarall Owen's like to use the 887 00:50:55,080 --> 00:51:00,359 Speaker 3: Eagles example. He's not you know that kind of guy, right. 888 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:07,399 Speaker 3: He's very thoughtful. He's a real intelligent guy. I think 889 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 3: he has you know, some some he's talked about it, 890 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 3: you know, some issues, stress and anxiety and that sort 891 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:19,319 Speaker 3: of thing. 892 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:21,880 Speaker 2: I don't know. 893 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 3: I know that there's him and the quarterback are not 894 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 3: do not see eyed I Jalen and him, and it's 895 00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 3: been a kind of an issue with both receivers. But 896 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:34,280 Speaker 3: last week I thought Jalen played really well. I thought 897 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 3: he made throws. I thought as a thrower, he played 898 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 3: one of his best games, and he finally coincided with 899 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:47,279 Speaker 3: him being under center where he embraced it. So I 900 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 3: was shocked, to be honest with you, brought that a 901 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 3: j Brown came out and that's been an issue this 902 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,799 Speaker 3: week and they say it's a hamstring, you know, but 903 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,359 Speaker 3: there's a lot of conjecture about him. 904 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:00,320 Speaker 2: Do you think he's a trade it? 905 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 3: No, okay for the deadline now you have to take 906 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 3: a forty two million dollar cap hit. 907 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 2: That would put me out of that too, So I 908 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:17,160 Speaker 2: understand get that. Yeah, It's just it's interesting. I think 909 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:22,320 Speaker 2: I think that the NFC, like I still default to 910 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:23,839 Speaker 2: the Eagles as of right now, even though I think 911 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 2: the Rams are not better as the wrong where they 912 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 2: lost the Eagles, but they played obviously their first half 913 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:34,759 Speaker 2: they were great. The Eagles look at it's it's hard 914 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:38,280 Speaker 2: to defend a championship. As we know, lot of eyeballs 915 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 2: to the offense of Jalen Hurts. Yet last week was 916 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,120 Speaker 2: a good game. The question is like for Hurts, Like, 917 00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 2: is that a sustainable offense? Right? Like, is that something 918 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,239 Speaker 2: that he week after a week? I haven't seen that 919 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:54,240 Speaker 2: quite yet this season, Barkley. I think that Barkley's production 920 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 2: this year was very predictable just in the history of 921 00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,400 Speaker 2: NFL running backs in that position and how how physically 922 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 2: is I'm not surprised he's having a tougher season this year. 923 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:04,880 Speaker 2: But the offensive line has not been healthy, which has 924 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 2: been a huge issue for them. 925 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 3: And again this week you're without your center in Cam Jurgens. 926 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,440 Speaker 2: The look, guys, the thing about the offensive line is 927 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 2: that it really is like the heartbeat of your team, 928 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:25,680 Speaker 2: and you take your cues off your offensive line, and 929 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 2: you take your you know, your intensity, your physicality as 930 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 2: a team and like you know you you just and 931 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 2: the Eagles have been this physical team, right this team 932 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 2: that relies on on being up its opponent. When your 933 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,480 Speaker 2: offensive line is at healthy, it's really hard to do that, 934 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:44,240 Speaker 2: and it changes the identity of your team, it really does. 935 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:46,359 Speaker 2: And so the Eagles have got to find a way 936 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,319 Speaker 2: with the injuries to find that identity back. And it's 937 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 2: it's hard, it's not easy to do. I'm not saying 938 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:52,480 Speaker 2: it's like the Eagles can just flumpuswhich and do it, 939 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:55,319 Speaker 2: but it matters, man Like, there's a reason why the 940 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,799 Speaker 2: best teams the NFL have the best offensive lines. It 941 00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:01,839 Speaker 2: does matter. Eagles have had that for so many years now. 942 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 2: So to me a Philly it's about just the sustainability 943 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,760 Speaker 2: of what we saw last week offensively, you know, can 944 00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 2: you do that week after week and throw the ball 945 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 2: quite that way? 946 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:10,400 Speaker 3: Now? 947 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 2: No, Aj Brown? This weekend the Giants, man, they host 948 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 2: the Giants. Tell you what, man, the Giants I got. Look, 949 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:19,239 Speaker 2: I I didn't think. I don't know if I thought 950 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 2: Dart would work this quickly. But he's he's good like darts. Yeah, 951 00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 2: and so he's really good. And so the Giants team 952 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 2: is not as good as the Eagles this weekend, but 953 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 2: they beat him two weeks ago and a big game 954 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 2: for both these teams. The Giants are not a playoff team, 955 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 2: but I mean, just after what happened last week, a 956 00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:42,319 Speaker 2: confidence builder in Philly. Philly is a hard place to play, man, 957 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 2: and so being able to to go into Philly after 958 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 2: you beat him a couple of weeks ago again a 959 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:52,239 Speaker 2: win would I think obviously would do wonders for the 960 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 2: confidence of this Giants team. I'm curious about this game. 961 00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:56,960 Speaker 2: It's an a game I have on one of my TVs. 962 00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 3: How hard is it to beat a team, especially when 963 00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 3: you're in the undernall twice in three weeks? 964 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I've I've you know, I've played these 965 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 2: uh these games twice in three weeks. I think the 966 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 2: interesting thing about you know, the this discussion is like, 967 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 2: so you're the Giants and you beat the Eagles, Okay, 968 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 2: this now they beat thembout two three thursdays ago. I 969 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:27,359 Speaker 2: think it was do you change your game plan from 970 00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 2: the first game? Right? It worked? It worked, you won. 971 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:34,320 Speaker 2: Philly now knows how you beat them. They're gonna have 972 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 2: answers for that. That to me is the toughest part. Physically, 973 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 2: it's just the same, it's still tough, but mentally, what 974 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,840 Speaker 2: do you do? Do you change? Do you do the 975 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,400 Speaker 2: same stuff you've been doing? That I think is always 976 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:52,320 Speaker 2: the most fasting part about rematches, and so I'm curious 977 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:55,520 Speaker 2: to see if if things change in this game. For 978 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:57,920 Speaker 2: that reason, it look Philly obviously, when you lose, I 979 00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,680 Speaker 2: think you have the upper the upper hand and making 980 00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:05,000 Speaker 2: schematic changes. So what does Philly do differently? And then 981 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:09,600 Speaker 2: for this game, you know the Giants just mentally, how 982 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:13,120 Speaker 2: are they after last week? I mean, dude, am my things. 983 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,920 Speaker 2: You know they allowed thirty three points in the fourth quarter. 984 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 2: Thirty three points not college football in the NFL. They 985 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 2: allowed thirty three points to the Broncos and loss. That 986 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 2: is very hard to do. And how do you mentally come. 987 00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 3: Back from that? And here's a you're also playing and 988 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 3: you know there's been there anybody because you've done it. 989 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,799 Speaker 3: It's hard coming off for Denver week. 990 00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, feel gets you. Album, really gets you. I'll explain 991 00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:43,919 Speaker 2: that too quickly. It's not really actually during the game 992 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,000 Speaker 2: in my I've experienced, it's Monday and Tuesday your your 993 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:50,239 Speaker 2: lungs burn a little bit. You know, you just you 994 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:53,920 Speaker 2: feel a little more than playing in other places. And 995 00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:54,319 Speaker 2: that's it. 996 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 3: And that's a big deal, man, Like you know, now 997 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 3: you got to come back, you got to play a 998 00:56:58,200 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 3: familiar team. 999 00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 2: I was talking to buddy of mine. 1000 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 3: Who's going to a coach in the league, and I 1001 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:05,400 Speaker 3: just asked him about that. 1002 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 2: He said, you know what's weird. He goes a lot 1003 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:08,719 Speaker 2: of times. 1004 00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 3: You think you know that team so much, so inside 1005 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:17,800 Speaker 3: and out that you tend to underprepare and overanalyze. 1006 00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 2: In division games. 1007 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, he said, you are, because you're playing them in 1008 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:29,880 Speaker 3: the second time in three weeks. You underprepare, but you overanalyze. 1009 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,439 Speaker 3: So you already have all your data and everything you need. 1010 00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 3: So it's always goes back to redaling your game plan, 1011 00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 3: and he said you wind up overanalyzing it. 1012 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,600 Speaker 2: I'm not surprised that does doesn't surprise me. And again, 1013 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 2: which coach can do that better? Who can make the adjustments? 1014 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 2: But it feels like a really big game for both 1015 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 2: of these teams because you know, again, like the what 1016 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,240 Speaker 2: the Giants are trying to build culturally and what the 1017 00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 2: Eagles continue to have to do is you get need 1018 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 2: to play well offensively and build up this run game, 1019 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,760 Speaker 2: buildut this pass game, and get some confidence back with 1020 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 2: another win. 1021 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:13,720 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, they they they need to do it. There's 1022 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 3: there's a lot of there's a lot here's the problem 1023 00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:21,560 Speaker 3: with that. But listen, they're in a good spot sitting 1024 00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 3: at five and two. 1025 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:26,760 Speaker 2: If you win your goal, you're six and two. 1026 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 3: You go into the into the bye week, and you 1027 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,920 Speaker 3: gotta you gotta pretty much straggle hold on the division. 1028 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,000 Speaker 2: But if you lose, you're. 1029 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 3: Five and three, and then the first WHO game, then 1030 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 3: you have a stretch of the Green Bay on a 1031 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 3: Monday Night at Green Bay Home Detroit, the Sunday Night Dallas, 1032 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 3: Chicago on Black Friday, and the Act the Chargers. 1033 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:04,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's five tough games. Yeah, that's the drag when 1034 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:08,080 Speaker 2: you have a tough division to play in the ANFC West, 1035 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,360 Speaker 2: and then also just a first play schedule. And that's 1036 00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:13,440 Speaker 2: that's that's why the NFL is king man. They schedule 1037 00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:15,560 Speaker 2: schedule tough and it makes it hard for for you know, 1038 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 2: team sustained success for that reason. 1039 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, all right, Uh, we'll continue, uh with our 1040 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:25,160 Speaker 3: NFL conversation coming up as we dive in there.

By the way, the Timberwolves are doing 1049 00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:59,919 Speaker 3: something cool. That's Prince right. So they're gonna, uh put 1050 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 3: the Prince court seven games this year for the Timberwolves 1051 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 3: with the Prince sign at half court, and they have 1052 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 3: it in purple. 1053 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 2: Nice. 1054 01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's cool, all right. I want to get to 1055 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:18,160 Speaker 3: this and we'll get back to the gambling thing. We'll 1056 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 3: get back to the World Series. But I love our 1057 01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:26,600 Speaker 3: NFL talk and a couple of teams. I want to 1058 01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 3: get to about being real right now, because I do 1059 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:34,400 Speaker 3: think by week eight teams start to identify themselves. Would 1060 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:40,240 Speaker 3: you agree, yes, my old season, Yes, So let's start 1061 01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:43,480 Speaker 3: in the AFC with the cults, because my boy's southside 1062 01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:48,240 Speaker 3: Chuck great listener and give me a yo. He's like, dude, 1063 01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 3: Danny dives cults for real. But it's like, yeah, you 1064 01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 3: got an elite running back. You got a quarterback that 1065 01:00:56,600 --> 01:01:00,040 Speaker 3: knows what he's doing, good receivers, great tight end, and 1066 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 3: a very good defense, a good coaching staff. 1067 01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 2: Uh, Cults, where would you put them in the panthon? 1068 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 3: Obviously you would have the Chiefs at the top, all 1069 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 3: healthy and looking nasty. Who would be two in your 1070 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 3: eyes to the AFC Buffalo? Still you still got Buffalo? 1071 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 2: All right? 1072 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 3: I mean, I do you see any problems with the bill, like, 1073 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 3: I agree with you. My only fear of Buffalo is 1074 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:32,480 Speaker 3: I still don't trust their offense. 1075 01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:38,120 Speaker 2: Are Josh still wants to do too much interesting? But 1076 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:39,720 Speaker 2: I think I think they'll figure out their offense. I'm 1077 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 2: not going to bother. I don't sure about their defense now. 1078 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:45,560 Speaker 2: Milano might be back this week. But about their receivers, dude, yeah, 1079 01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 2: it's not it's not. Their receivers aren't great, but I 1080 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,440 Speaker 2: mean Kansas City has won many times without great receivers. 1081 01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 2: I think I think that Josh Allen's not damn if 1082 01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:57,120 Speaker 2: a player can figure it out. Look, I would put 1083 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:58,640 Speaker 2: Buffalo ahead of them. And if you're asking me like 1084 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 2: who I trust or whatever, Buffalo be ahead of them. 1085 01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:06,360 Speaker 3: Yes, right right, I might disagree with it, but I do. 1086 01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 3: I am a little They don't look right. They're done 1087 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 3: off off about them. We'll see and look, they come 1088 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 3: here to Charlotte tomorrow. We'll see how how real they'll 1089 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 3: tell you Saturday? 1090 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 2: Right, Yes, well, they look tomorrow at one o'clock off 1091 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 2: their buy and they have the Chiefs in two weeks, 1092 01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 2: you know, Chiefs again for the fifth straight year in 1093 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 2: a row. I think it's actually in Buffalo again. Like, yeah, 1094 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,080 Speaker 2: well we're gonna find out more about both those teams 1095 01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:32,880 Speaker 2: in that in that game. Look, thinking about the Colts, man, 1096 01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 2: they're like historically good at offense, which just it blows 1097 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:40,840 Speaker 2: your mind. I think with the personnel. 1098 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 3: They have. 1099 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:47,200 Speaker 2: Took credit for them, but their defense is just not great. 1100 01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 2: I don't know no better way to put it. Like 1101 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 2: it's fine on defense, and so that what holds them 1102 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 2: back in the end. But yeah, Buffalo Kansas City to me, 1103 01:02:57,440 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 2: or like winning the AFC or ahead of them. Think 1104 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:04,200 Speaker 2: about though, when we get to the Super Bowl. I 1105 01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:06,240 Speaker 2: believe it's in Santa Clair this year, right, San Francisco 1106 01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:11,280 Speaker 2: Ors Home our stadium. Do you envision the end of 1107 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:16,720 Speaker 2: that game Daniel Jones holding up the Lombardi Trophy. No, 1108 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 2: that's that's the end game, right, Like, that's the end game. 1109 01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 2: The Colts are probably the one seed, look at their schedule, 1110 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:27,360 Speaker 2: the way they're playing. But in the end, do we 1111 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 2: think it's Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Daniel Jones 1112 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 2: that that's no. Answer is no, And it's again maybe 1113 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:38,560 Speaker 2: that's an unfair standard to hold a Colts to. That 1114 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:41,520 Speaker 2: we should not discredit them. They're playing great well, they're 1115 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 2: the credit they're getting. 1116 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 3: We're talking about that because they are getting discredited and they're. 1117 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:48,440 Speaker 2: I don't think anymore. I think now, like even me 1118 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 2: who was like, well I don't believe in them, it's 1119 01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,400 Speaker 2: now time to give that. They're they're. I mean, they 1120 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:55,640 Speaker 2: went in the Los Angeles and beat up a good 1121 01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:57,400 Speaker 2: Chargers team. 1122 01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 3: I think what makes it so dangerous is made Jovi 1123 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:05,920 Speaker 3: Taylors such. They got a good front, and Jovin Taylor's 1124 01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 3: such an eleap back, but he's a great back. He 1125 01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 3: does not get the love and fanfare that all their 1126 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:17,120 Speaker 3: backs get. 1127 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:20,400 Speaker 2: I did something this week I never thought I would do. 1128 01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 2: I bet I running back to an MVP, and I 1129 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,120 Speaker 2: took him sixty to one. And the reason I did 1130 01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:30,880 Speaker 2: it was the MVP often comes from the one seed 1131 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,360 Speaker 2: an offense, the quarterback, and it's not going with Daniel Jones. 1132 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,920 Speaker 2: And running backs have won the award three times in 1133 01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:44,000 Speaker 2: this century. They've all had historic seasons. Right, Sean Xander 1134 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:48,200 Speaker 2: had two thousand yards, LT had the touchdown record, and 1135 01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 2: then Adrian Peterson the Divikens team. I was on nine 1136 01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:53,160 Speaker 2: yards short of Eric Tickerson, right, so he nearly twenty 1137 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:56,240 Speaker 2: one hundred yards Russian and and you look at the 1138 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,440 Speaker 2: landscape right now, the favorite Mahomes Allen and Mahomes is 1139 01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,880 Speaker 2: playing great here. I don't know if he's MVP. Mahomes. 1140 01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:04,840 Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor is on track to set them to have 1141 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:06,560 Speaker 2: the most touchdowns of the season, like if they are 1142 01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 2: the one seed. Jonathan Taylor storing the discussion of an MVP. 1143 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:15,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean through seven games, he's got almost seven 1144 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 3: hundred yards and ten touchdowns. Yeah, yeah, ten touchdowns. It's 1145 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 3: a great bet. 1146 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:24,280 Speaker 2: So I took I took it this week, just a small, 1147 01:05:24,280 --> 01:05:29,040 Speaker 2: little little sprinkle, right, and so I'm curious to see, 1148 01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,400 Speaker 2: I think. But I think the overriding point is that 1149 01:05:32,360 --> 01:05:35,240 Speaker 2: while I don't really envision the Colts winning the Super Bowl, 1150 01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:38,040 Speaker 2: that shouldn't take away from what they've done so far 1151 01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 2: this season. But if we're ranking teams to win the AFC, 1152 01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:48,680 Speaker 2: they're not ahead of Kansas City or Buffalo. You got 1153 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,360 Speaker 2: but you got it squarely. Third though, until I see 1154 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,760 Speaker 2: the Ravens come back healthy. Yeah, but even then, I 1155 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,840 Speaker 2: mean the Ravens weren't have Still I think I have 1156 01:05:56,840 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 2: some defensive issues. It's funny, man, the Ravens lamark Jackson 1157 01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 2: has a played in weeks, they're one in five and 1158 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 2: then nearly a touchdown favorite. It's the four and two 1159 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 2: Bears this weekend. Yeah. Yeah, and you would think, I 1160 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:10,880 Speaker 2: mean when you get Lamar back. 1161 01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:13,800 Speaker 3: And and they had I mean, this is it like 1162 01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:15,240 Speaker 3: you gotta go on a run and. 1163 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:17,880 Speaker 2: They the schedule set up easy for them. Yeah, it 1164 01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 2: permits them to go to run. Yeah, you know the 1165 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:23,720 Speaker 2: other team, you know, age in the NFL is such 1166 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 2: a unique league where you know, I don't know if 1167 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:36,320 Speaker 2: individual game results matter as much to predicting the future. Like, 1168 01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:40,720 Speaker 2: for example, when the Chargers get healthy, their offensive line 1169 01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:43,920 Speaker 2: gets healthy, Derwyn James is back in the lineup. Clil 1170 01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:45,880 Speaker 2: Mack is, you know, clear a few more weeks of 1171 01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:48,080 Speaker 2: the elbow injury, and he's back to feeling it the 1172 01:06:48,120 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 2: way he should. I know, I know they just lost 1173 01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:54,880 Speaker 2: the Colts. I get that, but I don't think I 1174 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:57,320 Speaker 2: put it past the Chargers beating them in the playoffs. 1175 01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:59,840 Speaker 2: You know, like it's just funny how the I agree 1176 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 2: that I'm a hardball man, and so he just wins everywhere. Then. Yeah. 1177 01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 2: The other question is like Denver five and two Denver, 1178 01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 2: I think they're Fugezzy, I don't buy Denver at all. Yeah, 1179 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,480 Speaker 2: I kind of. I think I agree with you there. 1180 01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 2: Let's go NFC. 1181 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:25,560 Speaker 3: Because I'm telling you, I'm a little worried about the Cowboys. Man, 1182 01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:31,000 Speaker 3: and they look that offense is legit. Dak is playing 1183 01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:34,960 Speaker 3: great football. He's getting the ball out man, three seconds, 1184 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:41,240 Speaker 3: that ball's out. Pickens is playing great football, no knucklehead stuff. 1185 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:50,000 Speaker 3: Tavante Williams is healthy, and I mean they're they're good. Ferguson, Yeah, 1186 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:53,920 Speaker 3: they just play no defense, buddy. Right well, I'm just 1187 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:55,120 Speaker 3: talking about their offense right now. 1188 01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 2: Their offense looks great. I mean, Dak is as incredible. 1189 01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:01,919 Speaker 2: The thing is that that I think we're a little 1190 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,320 Speaker 2: unfair to Dak because he's been hurt so much. But 1191 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:07,000 Speaker 2: when Dak has been healthy, they've been very good. It's 1192 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:08,520 Speaker 2: been a hallmark of them, Like they've been a very 1193 01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 2: good team when he's healthy, and obviously he's very healthy 1194 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 2: this season. It makes a big difference. So it's fair 1195 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:15,680 Speaker 2: to point that out, like he and you know, he's 1196 01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 2: been great, and as you mentioned, and they look at 1197 01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:20,200 Speaker 2: play some some offensive line injuries, they're running back room 1198 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 2: is fine. It's not great, but they've been able to 1199 01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:23,600 Speaker 2: run the football, and Dak's been great. The problem is 1200 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:25,880 Speaker 2: their defense is just horrific, and so it's hard to 1201 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:29,600 Speaker 2: vision them, you know, really being a concern for the 1202 01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:31,760 Speaker 2: Eagles over the life of a seventeen game because their 1203 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:34,519 Speaker 2: defense is just that bad. But I'm curious about their 1204 01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 2: game against Denver. They go to Denver this weekend and 1205 01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,920 Speaker 2: we'll see Denver off that miraculous win having to play 1206 01:08:38,920 --> 01:08:40,799 Speaker 2: a team like Dallas. So there's a lot of confidence 1207 01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:43,760 Speaker 2: in Dallas right now. I think with how things are going, 1208 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 2: I don't think they thought they're often to be this good, 1209 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:49,080 Speaker 2: this early in Brian Shawnheimer's tenure. 1210 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we all question that higher And look, he's 1211 01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:56,720 Speaker 3: done a good job. If i'm then I'm all in 1212 01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 3: on a pass roster man, get me edge. 1213 01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:02,639 Speaker 2: They did they have a passer rusher before what happened 1214 01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:02,960 Speaker 2: to him? 1215 01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 3: So had they sign him, had they signed him, had 1216 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,920 Speaker 3: they just done it in status quo, how good would 1217 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:13,920 Speaker 3: they have been to. 1218 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,080 Speaker 2: Be able to rush the passer matter than they are now? 1219 01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 2: I know, but it's fair to say, you had Mike, 1220 01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 2: you might be able to win a division. Yes, Remember, 1221 01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 2: the NFC East has not had a repeat winner since 1222 01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 2: what twenty two thousand and four? Right, and that includes, 1223 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:42,679 Speaker 2: by the way, four four Superbowl winners in that time 1224 01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:47,960 Speaker 2: period and no repeats, no repeat division winners sinceand since 1225 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:50,360 Speaker 2: two thousand and four, So it's been division that's seen 1226 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 2: a lot of turnover. 1227 01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:57,320 Speaker 3: Yep, Yeah, I mean it is its sting San Francisco 1228 01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:04,799 Speaker 3: with all the injuries story, you know, decimated decimated by injuries. 1229 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:10,920 Speaker 2: Damn an easy schedule too, how how are they real? 1230 01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:17,720 Speaker 2: Are they? For Gazzy? So what they've done, Shandon has 1231 01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:23,400 Speaker 2: done is remarkable, right, but I think eventually the defensive 1232 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:28,040 Speaker 2: injuries become a problem. Right, You just you can't lose 1233 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:32,479 Speaker 2: to all Pro defenders and Bosa, Nick Bosa their past rusher, 1234 01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 2: and Fred Warner their linebacker and those your friend Warner, 1235 01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:37,160 Speaker 2: I think it's the best position in the NFL. You know, 1236 01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:39,760 Speaker 2: Bosa's up there as far as you just to me, 1237 01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:44,519 Speaker 2: you can't lose those guys and be good on defense 1238 01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:48,160 Speaker 2: all season. And look, they're thirtieth and pass rush pressure 1239 01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:51,800 Speaker 2: rate since Bosa's been out. They played so fast here 1240 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:54,000 Speaker 2: against the fact. I mean the roberts All is doing 1241 01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:55,960 Speaker 2: a great job with Devin's twort air, but I think 1242 01:10:56,040 --> 01:11:00,320 Speaker 2: eventually that's going to show it's you know, they play 1243 01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 2: Seattle and they play the Rams. These division games are 1244 01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:04,479 Speaker 2: so important and it's going to show itself and obviously 1245 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 2: beat the Rams already in a game when Thursday and football. 1246 01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,240 Speaker 2: But I think over the course of the rest of 1247 01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:11,040 Speaker 2: the season's we're going to show itself not having those 1248 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:13,800 Speaker 2: guys in your life. But then when party comes back, 1249 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:15,800 Speaker 2: all else will take him to get up to speed 1250 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:19,559 Speaker 2: and play. Well. A fun game this weekend with them 1251 01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:23,599 Speaker 2: in the Texans and Texans this one desperately very curious 1252 01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:26,400 Speaker 2: to see Mac Jones again. I think Max playing again 1253 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,280 Speaker 2: against a really really good defense in the Texans. It's 1254 01:11:30,280 --> 01:11:34,560 Speaker 2: a legit defense on the road, and it'd be a 1255 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:38,680 Speaker 2: fun game for the Niners. Yeah, very fun gate, very 1256 01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:40,920 Speaker 2: fun game. I think. I think I think they're I 1257 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:44,320 Speaker 2: think they're worth discussing obviously, you know, yeah. 1258 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 3: You know, seeh I crossed off Minnesota, I crossed off Chicago. 1259 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:53,759 Speaker 3: I think Detroit is the best team in the conference. 1260 01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:58,479 Speaker 2: I'm yeah, I go Lines, It's funny how it works, 1261 01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:00,679 Speaker 2: right like two weeks ago later up by the Chiefs 1262 01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:02,479 Speaker 2: and you're like, Lines, I don't they have it and 1263 01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:05,360 Speaker 2: then they just who they who they murdered the other day. 1264 01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:07,880 Speaker 2: They's just like that's the way things change in this 1265 01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:10,400 Speaker 2: in this sport. Yeah, and if they they get the 1266 01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:14,200 Speaker 2: one seed. The issue with playing Detroit is you just 1267 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:17,559 Speaker 2: don't want to go to Detroit because they're they're they're 1268 01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:21,880 Speaker 2: just nasty in that dome. Gibs is ridiculous. I mean, 1269 01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:24,880 Speaker 2: you know, they just come at you and waves. Now. 1270 01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:27,479 Speaker 2: I still think green Bay is good. I believe green 1271 01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:30,880 Speaker 2: I do not believe them at all. You know, we 1272 01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:32,599 Speaker 2: could do green Bay in a few minutes. I don't. 1273 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:36,400 Speaker 2: I what about green Bay makes you think that that 1274 01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:39,840 Speaker 2: that I think they're asleep? Giant? I do, well, they 1275 01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:43,160 Speaker 2: play like they played there asleep, so they that's right. 1276 01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 2: So I just don't. I do not buy the foot 1277 01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:51,400 Speaker 2: the switch idea. Unless you're Kansas City or you're Tom 1278 01:12:51,439 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 2: Brady in New England, I don't buy this idea. You 1279 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:55,479 Speaker 2: could just be like, oh, you know what, let's play 1280 01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:58,800 Speaker 2: better now. I just I don't buy man. And so, uh, 1281 01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:02,800 Speaker 2: we'll talk about the Packers here because I think that 1282 01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:05,400 Speaker 2: they need to show me a little bit more. They 1283 01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:06,680 Speaker 2: need to show me a little bit more from the 1284 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:09,320 Speaker 2: you know, considered one of those teams. I don't I 1285 01:13:09,400 --> 01:13:09,880 Speaker 2: just don't buy it. 1286 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:14,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, we'll discuss that.

Let's go to the World Series. 1307 01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:30,400 Speaker 3: Last night, the js A nine spot, and here it 1308 01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:36,479 Speaker 3: is Addison Barger with the bases loaded, swing in a. 1309 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 2: High fly ball right center field. 1310 01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:46,000 Speaker 1: Bernandez back on the track, go on a glenslam. 1311 01:14:46,840 --> 01:14:52,960 Speaker 3: Madison Barger blues this game wide open nine two Blue 1312 01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:53,760 Speaker 3: Jays in. 1313 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:56,800 Speaker 2: The bottom of the sixth Wow. 1314 01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:01,720 Speaker 3: There was courtesy the Blue Jays radio network work Toronto 1315 01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:06,040 Speaker 3: shocks the world, especially up to nothing in the game, 1316 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:10,760 Speaker 3: Dodgers up to nothing and Snell's on the pump and 1317 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:13,439 Speaker 3: it really got They started to get his pitch count 1318 01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 3: up a little bit because you want to get into 1319 01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 3: the Dodgers' bullpen, and they were able to kind of 1320 01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:23,240 Speaker 3: knock around Snell. The big at bat by Alejandro Kirk 1321 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:27,200 Speaker 3: and the fourth that set up he roped the double 1322 01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:31,360 Speaker 3: into the corner. They was played great by ta Oscar 1323 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,639 Speaker 3: and held Kirk to a signal. Kirk was smart because 1324 01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:38,960 Speaker 3: he ropes the ball into the corner and you know, 1325 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:41,200 Speaker 3: you hate to get it just a single out of that. 1326 01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:44,880 Speaker 3: He made the wide turn, but realized he wasn't going 1327 01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:48,200 Speaker 3: to make it, goes back and that sets up the 1328 01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:52,760 Speaker 3: Varshow home run, which I thought was a huge piece. Tonight, 1329 01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 3: eight o'clock eastern, five Pacific Yamamoto versus Gusman the night. 1330 01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:04,000 Speaker 2: Look, it's it's the fireworks yesterday. I think we're a 1331 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,960 Speaker 2: little unexpected, but we know that that Toronto can can 1332 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 2: be that team. And I don't know if the doctors 1333 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:14,640 Speaker 2: thought this would be easy, but it's certainly not gonna be. 1334 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 2: You know that they roll through the postseason for the 1335 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:19,519 Speaker 2: most part, they've really been unchallenged. Right, A lot of 1336 01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 2: games they've played and won have been games that they 1337 01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:25,880 Speaker 2: have just to handle business immediately. And so this is 1338 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:28,360 Speaker 2: now gonna be a fun series. Dogs have back against 1339 01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:30,519 Speaker 2: the wall. We know, we know a talented are but 1340 01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:35,640 Speaker 2: the Blue Jays have the recipe for to win right. 1341 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:38,200 Speaker 2: You mentioned it. It's a good point. Like they take 1342 01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:41,240 Speaker 2: they don't so many bad pitches, they don't strike out. 1343 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:44,120 Speaker 2: And then you get the daughter's bullpen, which is if 1344 01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 2: you were to kind of list weak spots on the team, 1345 01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:47,680 Speaker 2: the bullpen will be high up there. 1346 01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:52,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and again their lineup, they don't strike out, right, 1347 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:54,760 Speaker 3: so that's a big deal. They put the ball in 1348 01:16:54,880 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 3: play and they attack pitchers, so they make pitchers work 1349 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:04,640 Speaker 3: like that Kirk at bat was a big deal. I 1350 01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:07,080 Speaker 3: think it was like an eight pitch at bat Yeah, 1351 01:17:07,200 --> 01:17:10,920 Speaker 3: he he uh, he just knows how to to kind 1352 01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:15,479 Speaker 3: of waste pitches like that. That's such that's such a 1353 01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:17,800 Speaker 3: great skill for a hitter to be able to waste 1354 01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:22,959 Speaker 3: pitches because you you just wear a guy down. 1355 01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:26,200 Speaker 2: And and sooner or later you're gonna get something to drive, 1356 01:17:27,280 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 2: you know. 1357 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:30,840 Speaker 3: Do I think at times there's a there you should 1358 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 3: go after the first pitch and you get if you're 1359 01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:37,120 Speaker 3: gonna get to get me over fastball, you're sitting dead 1360 01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:38,080 Speaker 3: red first pitch. 1361 01:17:38,240 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 2: I mean, go for it. 1362 01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:42,120 Speaker 3: But there's something to be said for guys that have 1363 01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 3: the back control that can just wear you down fout pitch. 1364 01:17:47,360 --> 01:17:50,680 Speaker 3: You know, it's also just a nuisance. It's annoying, like 1365 01:17:50,760 --> 01:17:53,880 Speaker 3: I have to face guys like that, of course. Yeah, yeah, 1366 01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:56,799 Speaker 3: I think it's I think it's gonna be a long series, 1367 01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:02,600 Speaker 3: a really good series. I mean obviously Game one was 1368 01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:04,439 Speaker 3: that way. I think there's could be ones tonight. So 1369 01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 3: tonight Dodgers have favored again and uh they're one thirty 1370 01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:16,080 Speaker 3: five right now. Uh with a seven and a half total. 1371 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 3: I like the Jay's again and over well again. I 1372 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:22,240 Speaker 3: mean the Jays going up to nothing would be a 1373 01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:25,360 Speaker 3: huge story. And obviously put the pressure right back on. 1374 01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:28,040 Speaker 3: The Dodgers have to hold court in Los Angeles. 1375 01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:31,360 Speaker 2: So ooka. Again, I've been very clear about this. I 1376 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:33,720 Speaker 2: hope that's the case. I hope the Dodgers lose, and 1377 01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:36,400 Speaker 2: so going up to nothing would be I mean again, 1378 01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:38,360 Speaker 2: you got to win then two of the next five 1379 01:18:38,479 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 2: games like it's would be a huge lead for the 1380 01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:44,040 Speaker 2: Blue Jays and something that I think they're able to 1381 01:18:44,080 --> 01:18:46,880 Speaker 2: close the series out. They lose tonight, who knows we 1382 01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 2: would go seven games, but they able to get tonight too. 1383 01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:51,720 Speaker 2: It's done the Dodgers to be down to two when 1384 01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:53,880 Speaker 2: they probably did not expect that to be down oh two. 1385 01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:57,960 Speaker 2: I think you're gonna get onnes tonight too, dude. Yeah, 1386 01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:01,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. I yeah, the Dodgers bats being as 1387 01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:03,560 Speaker 2: quie as they weren't Game one, I would imagine more so. 1388 01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:06,160 Speaker 2: I mean, who knows if the Blue doesn't scored at 1389 01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:08,680 Speaker 2: the same pace they scored, you know, wow, I mean 1390 01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:12,040 Speaker 2: it was you know, they put on thirteen, right or eleven? 1391 01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:15,719 Speaker 3: I mean you know, I mean I'm not expecting eleven, 1392 01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:18,760 Speaker 3: but I'm expecting five, four or five. 1393 01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:21,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean a total seven and a half. 1394 01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:23,920 Speaker 3: I think that's I mean, if you get three from 1395 01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:27,720 Speaker 3: Toronto and five from the Dodgers, you win. So you know, 1396 01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:30,080 Speaker 3: I think there's gonna be offense. I think that ballpark 1397 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:33,799 Speaker 3: lends itself to it's a home run ballpark. Yeah, ball travels. 1398 01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:38,200 Speaker 3: I think you're gonna see. And to me, the total 1399 01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:42,360 Speaker 3: ship always be over with the Dodgers only because of 1400 01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:44,519 Speaker 3: their bullpen. I mean I was always looking at because 1401 01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:45,599 Speaker 3: the game get out of hand. 1402 01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 2: The bullpen is a problem for the Dodgers. You get in. 1403 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:51,479 Speaker 2: If you get into the bullpen, you have a chance 1404 01:19:51,600 --> 01:19:54,920 Speaker 2: to win these games against them. Yeah. 1405 01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:59,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, so Game two of the World Series, 1406 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:02,360 Speaker 3: World's Series in your mind, still have that Catchay? 1407 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:06,120 Speaker 2: Absolutely it does.

This is a. 1427 01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:24,559 Speaker 2: Look. These culturable this time of year because the conference 1428 01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:29,240 Speaker 2: play and teams, you know, playing so many games down 1429 01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:33,640 Speaker 2: to break and there's numbers showing back to back weekends 1430 01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:36,120 Speaker 2: on the road of the SEC right now, the numbers 1431 01:21:36,120 --> 01:21:38,639 Speaker 2: aren't great for the team playing that back to back game. 1432 01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:41,639 Speaker 2: So that's old miss for example this week in Oklahoma. 1433 01:21:41,680 --> 01:21:45,680 Speaker 2: Now they're underdog, but still that's Missouri a Vandy, right 1434 01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:48,760 Speaker 2: they were at Auburn last weekend. Uh, you know, Alabama 1435 01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:53,000 Speaker 2: having to go to South Carolina. Alabama's played four straight 1436 01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:56,799 Speaker 2: really tough games and now they go to South Carolina, 1437 01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:59,040 Speaker 2: who stinks? Can you get up for a fifth game 1438 01:21:59,080 --> 01:22:01,479 Speaker 2: in a row? Right a break they had how to buy. 1439 01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:05,280 Speaker 2: This is a week where it feels like we have 1440 01:22:05,360 --> 01:22:08,560 Speaker 2: some undefeateds that you know, is BYU going to do 1441 01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:11,400 Speaker 2: it again against Iowa State? Like, I don't know how 1442 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:15,760 Speaker 2: good by U is Cincinnati. They're offensively really good, defensively 1443 01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:18,320 Speaker 2: kind of a struggle they host Baler. So there's a 1444 01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:21,560 Speaker 2: lot of these games where it feels like, you know, 1445 01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:24,080 Speaker 2: we can see a little bit of of action today 1446 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:28,080 Speaker 2: and movement you the A C C and somebody that 1447 01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:30,679 Speaker 2: you know, you know, can Louisville, you know, continue as Louisville. 1448 01:22:30,680 --> 01:22:31,760 Speaker 2: I don't think that.

And this 1463 01:23:05,120 --> 01:23:09,439 Speaker 3: is what you got early Indiana on big new kickoff 1464 01:23:10,560 --> 01:23:13,000 Speaker 3: as u c l A. Obviously they're a huge favorite. 1465 01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:18,719 Speaker 3: What a great story Indiana and Signetti is and you got. 1466 01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:25,280 Speaker 2: U c l A. Yeah, I think I think Indiana 1467 01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:29,960 Speaker 2: is gonna boat race in u CLA today. So a 1468 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 2: couple a couple of notes here. The Bruins unbelievable, right, 1469 01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:38,120 Speaker 2: So they fire chomos Are after Game three. They lose 1470 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:41,639 Speaker 2: Northwestern in Game four, but the second half of that game, 1471 01:23:41,640 --> 01:23:44,000 Speaker 2: their offense sort of came alive a little bit. Uh huh. 1472 01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:47,719 Speaker 2: They go in to bye week, they they they fired 1473 01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:51,439 Speaker 2: the OC and let Joey new has a call, plays 1474 01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:55,320 Speaker 2: you beat Penn State, they beat Michigan State, they beat Maryland. 1475 01:23:55,640 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 2: But one thing we've noticed, and this is this is football, 1476 01:23:58,479 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 2: it's it's tendency is start to show the offense has 1477 01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:05,080 Speaker 2: been worse in every week. Right, So Week one against 1478 01:24:05,080 --> 01:24:08,800 Speaker 2: Penn State with new offense, fifty one percent success rates. 1479 01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:10,200 Speaker 2: So I mean you know, do you get them out 1480 01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:11,800 Speaker 2: of yards you're supposed to do on a given play? 1481 01:24:12,479 --> 01:24:15,599 Speaker 2: Six touchdowns? Right, score forty two points. It's Michigan State. 1482 01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:17,920 Speaker 2: The next week, success rate comes down a little bit 1483 01:24:18,120 --> 01:24:22,559 Speaker 2: less points Maryland. This past Saturday, okay, success rate comes 1484 01:24:22,600 --> 01:24:26,799 Speaker 2: way down forty one percent. Nico im ali Alva. Their quarterback. 1485 01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:29,799 Speaker 2: A little bit worse every week, right in this new offense. 1486 01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:32,560 Speaker 2: Third down a little bit worse every week in this 1487 01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:35,880 Speaker 2: new offense. So it's just this is natural. It's it's 1488 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:38,439 Speaker 2: not I'm not saying this is unnatural. But they're playing 1489 01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:41,720 Speaker 2: Indiana team who obviously beat my Ducks, have a huge 1490 01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:43,800 Speaker 2: amount of respect for what they do, and they are 1491 01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:47,519 Speaker 2: just so steady in what they do that it feels 1492 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:50,639 Speaker 2: very difficult for me to see UCLA the way they play, 1493 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:53,599 Speaker 2: the way they are playing. It's a it's an early 1494 01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:56,000 Speaker 2: bodyclock game. It's a nine am Pacific kickoff. Right, it's 1495 01:24:56,000 --> 01:25:00,439 Speaker 2: twelve Eastern, And I just think this is I this 1496 01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:03,800 Speaker 2: would not surprise me if this was like forty nine 1497 01:25:03,880 --> 01:25:06,120 Speaker 2: to ten, like we're like, oh, that that was a 1498 01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:09,280 Speaker 2: pretty big win for Indiana. I you sell this story 1499 01:25:09,400 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 2: is great. I think this is a different game for 1500 01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:14,240 Speaker 2: them than they've had the last three weeks. 1501 01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:20,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree. I think that Indiana teams 1502 01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 3: is a buzzsaw. I also at noon, a great game. 1503 01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:32,479 Speaker 3: This is gonna be fascinating. Old Miss oaklahhome sooners five 1504 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:36,759 Speaker 3: and a half. It begins the ABC triple header. 1505 01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:42,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, so, man, this one's fun. I so Old Miss 1506 01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:46,439 Speaker 2: scored thirty five at Georgia last weekend. I lost, and 1507 01:25:46,640 --> 01:25:48,679 Speaker 2: they had thirteen yards in the fourth quarter or something 1508 01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:50,280 Speaker 2: like that. It's a low number like that. They did 1509 01:25:50,360 --> 01:25:53,160 Speaker 2: play really well, so they didn't And I was very 1510 01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 2: impressed because they have a young quarterback, a Division two transfer, 1511 01:25:57,640 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 2: first year in Vision one a f BS it is 1512 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:08,400 Speaker 2: FBS right, Football Subdivision and Football Bowl Division whatever it is. 1513 01:26:08,720 --> 01:26:10,519 Speaker 2: And and that was the first time he played in 1514 01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:12,400 Speaker 2: a road game. He missed the first road game this 1515 01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:14,879 Speaker 2: year with injury, and I thought he was so poised. 1516 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:18,439 Speaker 2: I was actually very surprised the way Old Miss played 1517 01:26:18,479 --> 01:26:21,240 Speaker 2: in that game. Now they're back on the road against Oklahoma, 1518 01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:26,840 Speaker 2: and I emotionally, how do they handle that loss? Pretty 1519 01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:30,439 Speaker 2: tough loss last weekend? Can you get yourself back up 1520 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 2: to play another good team in Oklahoma? The question I 1521 01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 2: have about the Sooners is Jo Matier started out really 1522 01:26:38,160 --> 01:26:44,080 Speaker 2: hot this season, right, can he continue building back after 1523 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 2: his his injury to his thumb and not playing well, 1524 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:53,559 Speaker 2: you know against against Texas. They played South Carolina last week. 1525 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:56,840 Speaker 2: South Carolina stinks. They dominated that game. I think, I 1526 01:26:57,000 --> 01:26:58,640 Speaker 2: just think there's too many points in this game. Man. 1527 01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:01,840 Speaker 2: Oklahoma's offense, it's so reliant on John Matier. They don't 1528 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:06,040 Speaker 2: run the ball terribly well. They don't. They don't, you know, 1529 01:27:06,320 --> 01:27:11,639 Speaker 2: like you, I'm supposed to plays if oldness mentally mentally 1530 01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:17,799 Speaker 2: is recovered from last weekend, this feels like a spot 1531 01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:24,080 Speaker 2: that they can go to Oklahoma and win. Yeah, I 1532 01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:29,200 Speaker 2: don't know, man, I hear you, I hear you. A 1533 01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:33,280 Speaker 2: tough spot, man, tough spot for him, very tough. So 1534 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:36,200 Speaker 2: I mean that's it's it's it's hard. It's hard to 1535 01:27:36,240 --> 01:27:38,800 Speaker 2: be hard to hard to hard to win, you know, 1536 01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:40,760 Speaker 2: I know. 1537 01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:46,760 Speaker 3: It's it's funny like I understood, you know, years ago. 1538 01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:51,679 Speaker 3: I'll never forget talking to Andy Reid. Like I learned 1539 01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:55,799 Speaker 3: more about football from Andy than anybody else I've ever encountered. 1540 01:27:56,920 --> 01:28:01,160 Speaker 3: And he one day I was talking to him. It 1541 01:28:01,280 --> 01:28:04,559 Speaker 3: was like I think it was a month the players 1542 01:28:04,600 --> 01:28:06,719 Speaker 3: were just coming for treatment. It was like a Monday, 1543 01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:09,439 Speaker 3: and I was just kind of with him and. 1544 01:28:11,320 --> 01:28:14,360 Speaker 2: He was like, they won. It was like ugly and 1545 01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:15,479 Speaker 2: people were like. 1546 01:28:15,800 --> 01:28:19,479 Speaker 3: Eh, you know, because everybody wants style points, right, So 1547 01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:22,240 Speaker 3: we were just kind of talking about the game. 1548 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:26,240 Speaker 2: He's like, let me tell you something. It's so hard 1549 01:28:26,400 --> 01:28:27,559 Speaker 2: to win in this league. 1550 01:28:28,600 --> 01:28:33,599 Speaker 3: And he starts going off on this tangent about how 1551 01:28:33,800 --> 01:28:39,000 Speaker 3: hard it is to win, and it's funny because the 1552 01:28:39,320 --> 01:28:41,720 Speaker 3: fan looks like, what do you mean, like somebody when 1553 01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:44,720 Speaker 3: somebody loses, like, you know, you got fifty percent outcome, right, 1554 01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:51,240 Speaker 3: And what's lost in translation is the amount of energy 1555 01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:53,200 Speaker 3: and that you. 1556 01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:58,439 Speaker 2: Just expend preparing for Sunday, right. 1557 01:28:58,439 --> 01:29:02,760 Speaker 3: Like all the work that goes into preparing for it, 1558 01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:06,560 Speaker 3: and then the game itself is like who executes it 1559 01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:07,879 Speaker 3: makes the fewest mistakes? 1560 01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:16,160 Speaker 2: Yes, And I mean a coaching perspective, it's it's it's 1561 01:29:16,200 --> 01:29:18,519 Speaker 2: hard because you're not actually all you can do is 1562 01:29:18,560 --> 01:29:20,439 Speaker 2: coach them up right, like, and they have to they 1563 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:25,200 Speaker 2: have to succeed, So it's, uh, it's it's tough as 1564 01:29:25,200 --> 01:29:27,599 Speaker 2: a coach. But and then again, like when you lose 1565 01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:34,000 Speaker 2: a game like that, can you again, can you what 1566 01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:36,439 Speaker 2: do you do as a coach to overcome that, you 1567 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:38,680 Speaker 2: get you ready to play again. And that's what you know, 1568 01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:41,240 Speaker 2: that's Penn State. Obviously we saw it didn't go very 1569 01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:44,599 Speaker 2: well for Penn State. You know, Oregon were covered off 1570 01:29:44,640 --> 01:29:47,080 Speaker 2: the Indiana loss, but you know, can you George's recovered 1571 01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:50,400 Speaker 2: off Alabama loss. Georgia to me, I mean their resiliency 1572 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:52,400 Speaker 2: this season has been has been really fun to watch. 1573 01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:54,360 Speaker 2: Or not the same team they've been in his past. 1574 01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:56,160 Speaker 2: They don't play defense quite the same way. They can't 1575 01:29:56,200 --> 01:29:59,960 Speaker 2: rush the passer, but their ability to how about Chamblin says, 1576 01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:02,160 Speaker 2: he gets too did a break. 1577 01:30:03,400 --> 01:30:06,560 Speaker 3: They don't get a stop until the fourth quarter, and 1578 01:30:06,640 --> 01:30:08,720 Speaker 3: then they shut them finally shut them down in the 1579 01:30:08,760 --> 01:30:09,320 Speaker 3: fourth quarter. 1580 01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:13,920 Speaker 2: Georgia. Yeah, no, I mean it's it's it's again the 1581 01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:17,360 Speaker 2: Tennessee game, right like you're down early, just just fight 1582 01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:20,640 Speaker 2: claw boom, win the game. So a lot of st 1583 01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:22,599 Speaker 2: are for douay George's playing right now again. It takes 1584 01:30:22,680 --> 01:30:25,000 Speaker 2: it takes a while, man, I know, I know we 1585 01:30:25,040 --> 01:30:28,759 Speaker 2: don't we don't patient our society now, but it takes 1586 01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:34,080 Speaker 2: time to build your program to be that resilient against 1587 01:30:34,479 --> 01:30:37,840 Speaker 2: not not against you know, bad teams, but against the 1588 01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:40,560 Speaker 2: good teams. Right to be able to do that, to 1589 01:30:40,720 --> 01:30:42,960 Speaker 2: top twenty five teams, to play as poorly as they 1590 01:30:43,000 --> 01:30:45,840 Speaker 2: have at certain points, but also to reinvent yourself. Right. 1591 01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:50,559 Speaker 2: Georgia for so many years was defensive oriented offensively sort 1592 01:30:50,600 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 2: of not did enough is the wrong way to put it. 1593 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:54,160 Speaker 2: But they just did their job right. There wasn't they 1594 01:30:54,160 --> 01:30:56,880 Speaker 2: didn't have to do extra. And now because their defense 1595 01:30:56,920 --> 01:30:59,680 Speaker 2: isn't as good offensively, they have to do more offensively, 1596 01:30:59,800 --> 01:31:03,400 Speaker 2: and and they don't have Their offense line was beat up. 1597 01:31:03,400 --> 01:31:05,280 Speaker 2: They don't have a great It wasn't playing great. It's 1598 01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:06,880 Speaker 2: better now they got some guys back, but they don't 1599 01:31:06,920 --> 01:31:08,280 Speaker 2: have like the weapons they used to have. There's no 1600 01:31:08,360 --> 01:31:10,160 Speaker 2: brock Bowers on this team, right, and their ability to 1601 01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:11,680 Speaker 2: just reinvent themselves. We got to score a ton of 1602 01:31:11,680 --> 01:31:13,599 Speaker 2: points to be Tennessee. We store a ton of points 1603 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:16,960 Speaker 2: to be old Miss. I admire teams that can do that. 1604 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:19,080 Speaker 2: Now again, not a lot can. That's why I probably 1605 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 2: admire it because it's it's hard to do. It's if 1606 01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:22,920 Speaker 2: it was easy, everyone would be able to do it. 1607 01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:25,559 Speaker 2: So I give Georgia not even playing this weekend. As 1608 01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:27,559 Speaker 2: we talk about them, but I give them a lot 1609 01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 2: of credit for what they've done. But back to old 1610 01:31:29,280 --> 01:31:32,840 Speaker 2: Miss Oklahoma. I did also to Oklahoma. Just is I 1611 01:31:32,880 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 2: think a very very public side this week. I think 1612 01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:37,360 Speaker 2: everyone's in Oklahoma. So I'd like to be on the 1613 01:31:37,360 --> 01:31:41,280 Speaker 2: other side of that. Okay, the Belichicks. 1614 01:31:43,640 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 3: It gets Virginia Virginia ten and a half over North Carolina, 1615 01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:53,479 Speaker 3: which actually played respectable against Cal ed we should it 1616 01:31:53,560 --> 01:31:58,000 Speaker 3: be Cal? Yeah, except for the turnovers, and yeah, they 1617 01:31:58,040 --> 01:32:02,519 Speaker 3: were respectable. What do you make in this one? I mean, 1618 01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,280 Speaker 3: I think Virginia's going to score. Do you think Carolina 1619 01:32:05,400 --> 01:32:05,920 Speaker 3: is getting it? 1620 01:32:09,200 --> 01:32:09,240 Speaker 4: No? 1621 01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:12,400 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think so. I did cal Cal. 1622 01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:16,439 Speaker 2: My brother went to Cal. I follow Cal. They're not 1623 01:32:16,560 --> 01:32:19,639 Speaker 2: a good barometer of anything. They Their game last night 1624 01:32:19,800 --> 01:32:22,120 Speaker 2: was just it was. I don't know if you still 1625 01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:24,360 Speaker 2: have to watch that game. It was, it was. It was. 1626 01:32:24,640 --> 01:32:27,439 Speaker 2: They're just hard to explain. I don't know how much 1627 01:32:27,560 --> 01:32:30,320 Speaker 2: you put into Cal as far as like what that 1628 01:32:30,520 --> 01:32:33,439 Speaker 2: game for North Carolina. They did fumble at the end, 1629 01:32:33,479 --> 01:32:38,120 Speaker 2: which isn't good. Virginia last week came off of bye 1630 01:32:38,360 --> 01:32:41,840 Speaker 2: beating Louisville. They played a really sluggish game against Washington state. 1631 01:32:41,920 --> 01:32:45,559 Speaker 2: I think today they will reawaken themselves offensively. They scored 1632 01:32:45,560 --> 01:32:49,680 Speaker 2: a ton of points. Caroline's defense is not good. I 1633 01:32:49,840 --> 01:32:53,640 Speaker 2: think Virginia is able to handle business today. That's my 1634 01:32:54,080 --> 01:32:56,160 Speaker 2: That was my It was kind of my read on 1635 01:32:56,240 --> 01:33:00,080 Speaker 2: that too. What do you make of the the like 1636 01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:08,560 Speaker 2: Lombardi going to see the saudis, college sports is so 1637 01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 2: out of control, man. You got you got guys in 1638 01:33:12,720 --> 01:33:21,080 Speaker 2: sided college basketball, guys side of G leaguers. It's so crazy, man. Yeah, 1639 01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:24,040 Speaker 2: the game is so the gilly thing as well, for 1640 01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:28,599 Speaker 2: those who missed it, Louisville signed a g L player. 1641 01:33:28,680 --> 01:33:31,439 Speaker 2: The G League is basically a minor league NBA, like 1642 01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:35,479 Speaker 2: you pay them. The players are paid and they're professionals essentially, 1643 01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:39,360 Speaker 2: and now they can go play college basketball. But okay, 1644 01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:45,200 Speaker 2: and that's certainly unique. Sure, why not? Why not? Was like, 1645 01:33:45,439 --> 01:33:51,240 Speaker 2: what what do? It doesn't match what the sport has done. 1646 01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:56,719 Speaker 2: But to be fair, the sport has there's no actual 1647 01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:01,679 Speaker 2: like there's no, it's not the same thing anymore because 1648 01:34:01,680 --> 01:34:03,720 Speaker 2: they keep losing court cases. So it's not the same 1649 01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 2: sport anymore. No, it's not. It's not. 1650 01:34:07,240 --> 01:34:10,200 Speaker 3: Uh, three point thirty Eastern and twelve thirty Pacific, a 1651 01:34:10,320 --> 01:34:19,160 Speaker 3: great one, Miszoo and Vanderbelt. Vandy now ranked tenth in 1652 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:23,439 Speaker 3: the country. I mean, they're a lot of fun, man, 1653 01:34:23,680 --> 01:34:28,920 Speaker 3: they really are. Beat LSU last week the enigma that 1654 01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:33,679 Speaker 3: is LSU, and here you go now they host Miszoo, 1655 01:34:33,840 --> 01:34:35,240 Speaker 3: another good team six' one. 1656 01:34:37,400 --> 01:34:44,519 Speaker 2: I I think right now, getting in front of the Vandy, 1657 01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:50,560 Speaker 2: you know, get getting getting in front of Vandy and 1658 01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:53,000 Speaker 2: betting against them feels like the wrong thing right now 1659 01:34:53,240 --> 01:34:57,960 Speaker 2: with how good they've played. One thing about them that 1660 01:34:58,160 --> 01:35:02,800 Speaker 2: that's impressive is so for years, a team like Vanderbilt 1661 01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:06,840 Speaker 2: was able to compete for like forty minutes of a 1662 01:35:06,880 --> 01:35:11,120 Speaker 2: sixty minute game, right, because then eventually their offensive defensive 1663 01:35:11,160 --> 01:35:15,479 Speaker 2: lines couldn't keep up. Right. That's that's what happens, right, 1664 01:35:15,680 --> 01:35:18,120 Speaker 2: You play a bigger, better team, you play close for 1665 01:35:18,200 --> 01:35:20,519 Speaker 2: forty minutes, and all of a sudden, the depth, really 1666 01:35:20,560 --> 01:35:22,680 Speaker 2: the size of the of the better team takes over. 1667 01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:28,320 Speaker 2: That's college football, right. But this year their offensive line 1668 01:35:29,520 --> 01:35:33,360 Speaker 2: are butt kickers, like they they Their offense line this 1669 01:35:33,439 --> 01:35:36,880 Speaker 2: season is different than they've ever had, and that's what's 1670 01:35:36,960 --> 01:35:41,320 Speaker 2: allowing Vanderbilt to continue to play against the big dogs 1671 01:35:41,360 --> 01:35:44,880 Speaker 2: in a way they've never done before, and I give 1672 01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:48,400 Speaker 2: that staff a lot of credit for building up this 1673 01:35:48,680 --> 01:35:52,400 Speaker 2: team in that way, and so that gives them a 1674 01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:55,320 Speaker 2: chance to play tough games back to back to back 1675 01:35:55,840 --> 01:35:58,759 Speaker 2: and still have the ability to win those games. 1676 01:35:58,840 --> 01:35:59,120 Speaker 4: And so. 1677 01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:02,800 Speaker 2: I'm not getting from the Van Dy train. I don't 1678 01:36:02,840 --> 01:36:04,880 Speaker 2: know what the right I don't I didn't wag during 1679 01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:06,679 Speaker 2: this game. I don't have a player in this game. 1680 01:36:07,200 --> 01:36:08,680 Speaker 2: I would just be afraid to get in front of 1681 01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:10,200 Speaker 2: Vandy train. Yeah. 1682 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:15,280 Speaker 3: Another good game in the afternoon on Fox, Iowa State 1683 01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:21,439 Speaker 3: and rock O becked against b YU number eleven b YU, 1684 01:36:22,040 --> 01:36:23,280 Speaker 3: which won the Holy War. 1685 01:36:23,439 --> 01:36:27,000 Speaker 2: I love Iowa State in this game laying time, so 1686 01:36:27,120 --> 01:36:30,920 Speaker 2: do I. So b YU is just sort of like 1687 01:36:32,280 --> 01:36:34,960 Speaker 2: winning is important, as we know that's the end game. 1688 01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:40,000 Speaker 2: But yeah, they they just have won games, you know, 1689 01:36:40,240 --> 01:36:42,840 Speaker 2: just like it's not been It's not been pretty, Okay, Yeah, 1690 01:36:42,880 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 2: pretty is not pretty. It doesn't mean that, you know, 1691 01:36:45,479 --> 01:36:47,559 Speaker 2: I mean, you win, and you know, you win the games. 1692 01:36:47,600 --> 01:36:50,599 Speaker 2: That's your job. It's been It's kind of kind of gross. 1693 01:36:51,040 --> 01:36:54,920 Speaker 2: Iowa State off of Bye. They're much better home this 1694 01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:57,879 Speaker 2: season than on the road, and I think it's opportunity 1695 01:36:57,920 --> 01:37:01,639 Speaker 2: off of by two straight losses in Colorado to sort 1696 01:37:01,680 --> 01:37:04,080 Speaker 2: of you know what, Blacky become like I get right 1697 01:37:04,160 --> 01:37:06,519 Speaker 2: game right, get right game for them against BYU. So 1698 01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:10,960 Speaker 2: I do like I do like them in this spot. Yeah, 1699 01:37:11,800 --> 01:37:14,479 Speaker 2: I love them. I love them. 1700 01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:17,639 Speaker 3: I'm a big I like rock A a lot. He's 1701 01:37:17,640 --> 01:37:21,479 Speaker 3: a gamer of course with Anthony Beck, good friend and 1702 01:37:21,600 --> 01:37:26,839 Speaker 3: show because uh that's that's good football. That'll be good football. 1703 01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:32,200 Speaker 3: Uh all right, let's keep going. Let's talk about I mean, 1704 01:37:32,240 --> 01:37:36,439 Speaker 3: you mentioned Alabama South Carolina and how that could be shaky. 1705 01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:39,880 Speaker 2: I see the same thing. I think it's it's sweat. 1706 01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:42,760 Speaker 3: I think all about the wins, but I think this 1707 01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:47,240 Speaker 3: thing is a dangerous spot after and Alabama's playing terrific, right, 1708 01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:53,559 Speaker 3: But it's a dangerous spot you have. Here's where you played. 1709 01:37:54,560 --> 01:37:58,960 Speaker 3: You have played like you said. You beat Georgia, you 1710 01:37:59,120 --> 01:38:02,880 Speaker 3: came back beat Vandy. Everybody was hot about Vandy that game. 1711 01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:09,240 Speaker 3: Then you beat Miszoo at Miszoo, and then you come 1712 01:38:09,360 --> 01:38:12,639 Speaker 3: back and you crush Tennessee Gate. There was a little 1713 01:38:12,760 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 3: game got closed for a minute, and then all of 1714 01:38:14,520 --> 01:38:16,840 Speaker 3: a sudden they blew it open. 1715 01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:21,280 Speaker 2: And now you got to go on the road and 1716 01:38:21,439 --> 01:38:24,280 Speaker 2: go play a South Carolina team. 1717 01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:27,120 Speaker 3: It's like you know, not that that very good and 1718 01:38:27,240 --> 01:38:30,599 Speaker 3: you got LSU next weekend, all right, I guess after 1719 01:38:30,680 --> 01:38:31,000 Speaker 3: the bye. 1720 01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's it's it's a it's a tough spot. 1721 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:39,320 Speaker 2: South Carolina is not good though, So that's the the 1722 01:38:39,400 --> 01:38:41,880 Speaker 2: one thing that I think is worth pointing out, like 1723 01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:45,800 Speaker 2: it's just it's they're not good, and so can they 1724 01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:50,960 Speaker 2: summon something today? I mean this feels like South Carolina. 1725 01:38:51,920 --> 01:38:55,000 Speaker 2: I mean it's win or like the end of the 1726 01:38:55,080 --> 01:38:57,040 Speaker 2: coaching staff. I mean, you know, it's one of those 1727 01:38:57,040 --> 01:39:00,080 Speaker 2: games where like they have to they gotta win, or 1728 01:39:00,160 --> 01:39:02,040 Speaker 2: this is maybe the end of the coaching staff. So 1729 01:39:02,240 --> 01:39:05,360 Speaker 2: I think that it's a kitchen sink game where essentially 1730 01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:10,160 Speaker 2: you throw everything at it. And I look again handicapping 1731 01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:12,560 Speaker 2: a game based off of basically saying like, ah, you know, 1732 01:39:12,640 --> 01:39:14,920 Speaker 2: I don't you know, you know, they might not try 1733 01:39:14,960 --> 01:39:17,240 Speaker 2: as hard in this game. It's real. I don't want 1734 01:39:17,240 --> 01:39:18,840 Speaker 2: to say it's like a it's a real thing. So 1735 01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:22,160 Speaker 2: I do think it's worth again pointing that out that 1736 01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:27,760 Speaker 2: like can Alabama for a fifth straight week, get up, 1737 01:39:28,280 --> 01:39:30,760 Speaker 2: go on the road and try to win a game 1738 01:39:30,920 --> 01:39:32,840 Speaker 2: against a team that they should beat. Their twelve point 1739 01:39:32,840 --> 01:39:34,600 Speaker 2: favorites for a reason, and maybe it's eleven outs come 1740 01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:36,639 Speaker 2: down a little bit, but their favorites for a reason 1741 01:39:36,680 --> 01:39:37,120 Speaker 2: in this game. 1742 01:39:37,240 --> 01:39:42,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, all right, let's take a quick too, and 1743 01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:46,640 Speaker 3: then I want to ask you about the future of 1744 01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:51,880 Speaker 3: props and if you think it'll be affected by this 1745 01:39:52,040 --> 01:39:56,240 Speaker 3: whole scandal that's happening in the NBA. But the other 1746 01:39:56,400 --> 01:40:00,799 Speaker 3: issue is college because they all for college props. 1747 01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:06,320 Speaker 2: How do you protect the player when it comes to that. 1748 01:40:06,880 --> 01:40:09,680 Speaker 3: So we'll kind of move into a little bit, and 1749 01:40:11,160 --> 01:40:13,519 Speaker 3: I do want to get into the whole theater aspect 1750 01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:17,600 Speaker 3: of it, because you know, this whole mafia talk and 1751 01:40:17,760 --> 01:40:23,439 Speaker 3: all this stuff families name and there's five families. I 1752 01:40:23,800 --> 01:40:27,479 Speaker 3: think part of it is way overblow. But we'll discuss it. 1753 01:40:27,640 --> 01:40:34,040 Speaker 3: Fellas hanging right here at Fox Sports Radio. Welcome back, Fella, 1754 01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:38,679 Speaker 3: is it, Jeff hanging with you? Don't forget the brain. 1755 01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:43,600 Speaker 3: Next hour we'll go through the whole card and have 1756 01:40:43,760 --> 01:40:47,240 Speaker 3: some fun with that stuff. Of course, that really has 1757 01:40:47,320 --> 01:40:52,560 Speaker 3: been the subject of the week and everybody's talking about it, 1758 01:40:53,040 --> 01:40:59,240 Speaker 3: and it was theatrical in many ways the NBA, and 1759 01:41:01,600 --> 01:41:03,599 Speaker 3: it's still when you when you go through it, Jef, 1760 01:41:04,520 --> 01:41:09,680 Speaker 3: it's pretty wild. The whole David Joes stuff. Yeah with 1761 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:11,759 Speaker 3: you know, he's letting people. 1762 01:41:11,640 --> 01:41:17,320 Speaker 2: Know about Lebron not playing. It's insane, Okay, so let's 1763 01:41:17,360 --> 01:41:23,519 Speaker 2: talk about that. For some reason, the people that gamble 1764 01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:25,240 Speaker 2: for a living in Las Vegas, the ones who make 1765 01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:29,639 Speaker 2: the money, who set the numbers as well, they find 1766 01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:32,120 Speaker 2: out this information all the time. I don't know how 1767 01:41:32,160 --> 01:41:38,760 Speaker 2: they do. It's that's essentially how I mean. I I 1768 01:41:40,560 --> 01:41:45,240 Speaker 2: think there's an injury situation with Utah's quarterback today. I 1769 01:41:45,439 --> 01:41:47,320 Speaker 2: think I have some information on it. I don't know 1770 01:41:47,400 --> 01:41:49,560 Speaker 2: if it's accurate or not. But like we also have 1771 01:41:50,000 --> 01:41:54,519 Speaker 2: like people we know, we get information, but very rarely 1772 01:41:54,600 --> 01:42:00,960 Speaker 2: does it come directly from the friend of Lebron James 1773 01:42:01,200 --> 01:42:05,479 Speaker 2: or or coach right to someone who can make money 1774 01:42:05,560 --> 01:42:08,120 Speaker 2: off of that. You know, it's typically third hand. Like 1775 01:42:08,200 --> 01:42:10,439 Speaker 2: I get about text messages about stuff, and I'm like, 1776 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:11,880 Speaker 2: I don't know who knows, And half the time it 1777 01:42:11,880 --> 01:42:13,560 Speaker 2: doesn't even made. It's not true at all, right, But 1778 01:42:13,560 --> 01:42:16,400 Speaker 2: it's always like taking or third hand, not directly from 1779 01:42:16,439 --> 01:42:19,439 Speaker 2: the source in this in this manner. But that sharing 1780 01:42:19,479 --> 01:42:22,360 Speaker 2: of information is nothing new in the gambling world, right. 1781 01:42:22,400 --> 01:42:26,560 Speaker 2: A lot of it does come from learning about injuries 1782 01:42:27,240 --> 01:42:29,320 Speaker 2: playing time. And I don't know how they get it. 1783 01:42:29,400 --> 01:42:31,000 Speaker 2: Do they learn it directly from the source? I don't know, 1784 01:42:31,160 --> 01:42:35,799 Speaker 2: but that's a lot of of the industry. And so again, 1785 01:42:35,920 --> 01:42:39,479 Speaker 2: the problem with this is that it comes from someone 1786 01:42:39,560 --> 01:42:42,639 Speaker 2: associated with the NBA, right, who explicitly told other people 1787 01:42:42,680 --> 01:42:47,200 Speaker 2: that someone wasn't playing. Now, don't think Lebron is as 1788 01:42:47,560 --> 01:42:49,920 Speaker 2: the name is attached to this. But he did nothing 1789 01:42:50,000 --> 01:42:52,880 Speaker 2: wrong here, right, he didn't. Just they use Lebron in 1790 01:42:52,960 --> 01:42:54,840 Speaker 2: this instance to make some money because he wasn't going 1791 01:42:54,880 --> 01:42:58,320 Speaker 2: to play again, someone character to the NBA can't do this, right, 1792 01:42:58,439 --> 01:43:00,360 Speaker 2: you can't do this now. This is not the same 1793 01:43:00,360 --> 01:43:02,439 Speaker 2: as ringing Game's not what Chauncey Bilts is being accused 1794 01:43:02,439 --> 01:43:05,479 Speaker 2: of doing. It's it's this inside and information, right, which 1795 01:43:06,560 --> 01:43:10,960 Speaker 2: but isn't it? You know? It's interesting right? How you 1796 01:43:11,040 --> 01:43:14,320 Speaker 2: know this is something the FBI feels very passionate about. 1797 01:43:15,040 --> 01:43:18,800 Speaker 2: You get insire trading of other people less passionate about. 1798 01:43:18,800 --> 01:43:20,519 Speaker 2: It's interesting, right? How that? How that is? 1799 01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:25,760 Speaker 3: Well here's the other thing too, Like you have politicians. 1800 01:43:26,280 --> 01:43:28,840 Speaker 3: Well that's my point, correct, Yeah, well, yes, you know 1801 01:43:29,040 --> 01:43:31,120 Speaker 3: I'm just going to buttress it by saying you got 1802 01:43:31,200 --> 01:43:35,080 Speaker 3: politicians that all of a sudden, they they're in office 1803 01:43:35,600 --> 01:43:38,840 Speaker 3: and the next thing you know, you know, their net 1804 01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:43,360 Speaker 3: worth goes from nothing to eight million dollars, right, Like 1805 01:43:44,040 --> 01:43:47,960 Speaker 3: you talking about real wealth, not you know, not a 1806 01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:50,880 Speaker 3: couple of hundred Graham like or whatever it is, Tank Graham. 1807 01:43:51,400 --> 01:43:54,680 Speaker 3: There's just so much you're going to make off of gambling, 1808 01:43:55,000 --> 01:43:57,680 Speaker 3: and so much you can bet on a prop be. 1809 01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:01,920 Speaker 2: Correct. It's hard to get down on that, but if 1810 01:44:01,960 --> 01:44:04,840 Speaker 2: you know someone's not playing, obviously you can and you 1811 01:44:04,920 --> 01:44:06,720 Speaker 2: could spread your in. Look and the people that do 1812 01:44:06,800 --> 01:44:08,920 Speaker 2: it for living, they're able to spread out, you know, 1813 01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:11,880 Speaker 2: spread out, you know, spread out the wealth. Right. They 1814 01:44:11,920 --> 01:44:14,120 Speaker 2: have many different outs man, different ways to get money 1815 01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:17,519 Speaker 2: down all those things. But yeah, I mean, this is 1816 01:44:17,680 --> 01:44:20,880 Speaker 2: part of wagering, is getting in that inside information. I'll 1817 01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:24,519 Speaker 2: tell you this funny story though. Last year i uh 1818 01:44:25,320 --> 01:44:28,559 Speaker 2: we talked about my podcast, but i uh Utah football. 1819 01:44:28,600 --> 01:44:31,360 Speaker 2: Cam Rising right, who was their cornerback last year, was 1820 01:44:31,400 --> 01:44:32,720 Speaker 2: in out of the lineup for the last couple of years. 1821 01:44:33,240 --> 01:44:35,240 Speaker 2: We knew on Monday he wasn't going to play in 1822 01:44:35,520 --> 01:44:39,920 Speaker 2: a week, and we bet on Oklahoma State. They were 1823 01:44:39,960 --> 01:44:42,840 Speaker 2: playing Oklahoma State all week. Like, we hit the number 1824 01:44:42,920 --> 01:44:44,720 Speaker 2: Eventually the news got out by like Wednesday, and the 1825 01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:46,679 Speaker 2: number of plummeted, right, I got, we got a great number, 1826 01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:52,840 Speaker 2: and Oklahoma State ended up losing. Anyways, Really yeah, oh 1827 01:44:52,920 --> 01:44:55,439 Speaker 2: we got Yeah Alcoba said was oh nine comp Like dude, 1828 01:44:56,600 --> 01:44:59,800 Speaker 2: we we had a great number, we knew in advance. 1829 01:45:01,080 --> 01:45:01,200 Speaker 3: And and. 1830 01:45:03,160 --> 01:45:05,800 Speaker 2: We lost. Anyways, it doesn't mean I remember during the 1831 01:45:05,880 --> 01:45:10,000 Speaker 2: COVID year, I got information on a college basketball game 1832 01:45:11,479 --> 01:45:15,000 Speaker 2: where four starters were out because of COVID, and so 1833 01:45:15,080 --> 01:45:17,759 Speaker 2: I bet the other team and so lost that game. Anyways, 1834 01:45:18,560 --> 01:45:19,599 Speaker 2: they mean you win every game. 1835 01:45:20,479 --> 01:45:20,519 Speaker 4: Like. 1836 01:45:21,320 --> 01:45:23,639 Speaker 2: So that's my point about some of this stuff is like, yeah, 1837 01:45:23,680 --> 01:45:28,519 Speaker 2: it's not like it is a guarantee. Well, the stock 1838 01:45:28,600 --> 01:45:34,200 Speaker 2: market thing with with congress people is different because they're 1839 01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:37,680 Speaker 2: told in these meetings, right, and these hey you know, 1840 01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:40,360 Speaker 2: especially during COVID, we saw this happen a lot, like hey, 1841 01:45:41,200 --> 01:45:43,120 Speaker 2: this company is going to do this, and then they 1842 01:45:43,200 --> 01:45:45,240 Speaker 2: invested that company, right, or they ditched their stock in 1843 01:45:45,280 --> 01:45:49,000 Speaker 2: that company. That's like, you know, this is this is 1844 01:45:49,040 --> 01:45:51,720 Speaker 2: not guaranteed to win, right, It's not guaranteed. So we 1845 01:45:51,840 --> 01:45:54,559 Speaker 2: might get information today on something and it doesn't mean 1846 01:45:54,600 --> 01:45:57,560 Speaker 2: it's gonna win. Obviously, if Lebron James not playing in 1847 01:45:57,600 --> 01:46:00,880 Speaker 2: a game, the Lakers are more likely to lose that game. 1848 01:46:01,400 --> 01:46:03,439 Speaker 2: That doesn't guarantee like that. Out of all things that 1849 01:46:03,520 --> 01:46:05,439 Speaker 2: we saw in this story, this is like the what 1850 01:46:05,560 --> 01:46:08,400 Speaker 2: I least care about. I mean this, this is commonplace. 1851 01:46:09,160 --> 01:46:10,920 Speaker 2: The thing that I care about a lot is Chauncey 1852 01:46:10,960 --> 01:46:23,080 Speaker 2: Billups potentially losing games and or or the game. So, yeah, 1853 01:46:23,200 --> 01:46:26,519 Speaker 2: the video is incredible. He's it's he's very clearly throwing 1854 01:46:26,560 --> 01:46:29,519 Speaker 2: that game. It looks dude, you know, it looks like 1855 01:46:29,920 --> 01:46:32,400 Speaker 2: have you ever seen the movie Blue Chips? It looks 1856 01:46:32,439 --> 01:46:34,280 Speaker 2: like Blue Tips. Yes, he's throwing the game. Yes, it's 1857 01:46:34,320 --> 01:46:40,200 Speaker 2: exactly what it looks like. Yeah, throwing the game. The 1858 01:46:40,479 --> 01:46:43,360 Speaker 2: game was coach, it's a what a what a movie? 1859 01:46:43,479 --> 01:46:43,599 Speaker 4: Now? 1860 01:46:43,640 --> 01:46:45,479 Speaker 2: All that stuff is legal. You want a tractor, here 1861 01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:49,720 Speaker 2: you go. Here's a tractor, here you go. So legal now, right, 1862 01:46:50,160 --> 01:46:52,160 Speaker 2: Buddy would be like, Buddy, be living to d be 1863 01:46:52,280 --> 01:46:54,800 Speaker 2: buying a whole team. I can't figure out, by the way, 1864 01:46:55,280 --> 01:46:56,880 Speaker 2: so that is that supposed to be? U? C. L A. 1865 01:46:57,040 --> 01:47:00,200 Speaker 2: I never figured Blue Chips, right cl A? Thank you? Yeah? 1866 01:47:00,720 --> 01:47:03,400 Speaker 3: So Ron Shelton, who's a great Ron Shelton wrote it 1867 01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:06,679 Speaker 3: in fact, I'm working with him on a college football project. 1868 01:47:07,240 --> 01:47:09,920 Speaker 2: So so basically, Buddy, Sam Gilbert, that's like that, that's 1869 01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:14,200 Speaker 2: the that's the thing out there. Yeah. So uh so, nonetheless, 1870 01:47:16,160 --> 01:47:17,960 Speaker 2: you know now obviously that that's all, that's all, that's all, 1871 01:47:18,080 --> 01:47:22,439 Speaker 2: that's all legal. The terroor is your thing or Jontay 1872 01:47:22,520 --> 01:47:27,840 Speaker 2: Porter thing, I don't know. I guess then the terror 1873 01:47:27,920 --> 01:47:31,280 Speaker 2: is your question is like did it did it affect 1874 01:47:31,320 --> 01:47:35,720 Speaker 2: the end result of the game? Because I'm not, I'm 1875 01:47:35,800 --> 01:47:38,680 Speaker 2: not personally as outraged about that as I am what 1876 01:47:38,800 --> 01:47:41,080 Speaker 2: Chauncy Bill are ranking like what I think is the 1877 01:47:41,160 --> 01:47:46,880 Speaker 2: worst Chuncy because you're I mean, you show the play. 1878 01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:52,519 Speaker 2: But the question is like, if you're up twenty and 1879 01:47:52,600 --> 01:47:55,080 Speaker 2: you turn the ball over three times and leave the game, 1880 01:47:55,479 --> 01:47:57,200 Speaker 2: is you know, is that is that? Because basically what 1881 01:47:57,280 --> 01:48:00,679 Speaker 2: he was doing is is either lee in the game early, 1882 01:48:00,840 --> 01:48:03,920 Speaker 2: right or taking his props. However, in the video that 1883 01:48:04,000 --> 01:48:06,519 Speaker 2: I saw that we all saw, that looked like he 1884 01:48:06,640 --> 01:48:09,120 Speaker 2: was actually trying to lose the game. That's where I 1885 01:48:09,160 --> 01:48:10,799 Speaker 2: take a problem with it. Right, if if you're Jontay 1886 01:48:10,840 --> 01:48:13,639 Speaker 2: Porter and you come out of for seven minutes, shouldn't 1887 01:48:13,640 --> 01:48:16,720 Speaker 2: be doing it. It's illegal you should be banned for life. 1888 01:48:16,720 --> 01:48:19,200 Speaker 2: All those things are true, but my outrage meter isn't 1889 01:48:19,200 --> 01:48:22,120 Speaker 2: as high as guys throwing actual results of games. Right, 1890 01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:25,720 Speaker 2: And so if Rogier was doing that which looked like 1891 01:48:25,880 --> 01:48:30,400 Speaker 2: he was in the video, and this is the this 1892 01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:36,160 Speaker 2: is the number one problem with why the penalties for 1893 01:48:36,280 --> 01:48:38,680 Speaker 2: these have to be very harsh. Okay, this number one 1894 01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:45,960 Speaker 2: reason why because now every time, well every game Rogier 1895 01:48:46,080 --> 01:48:50,000 Speaker 2: is played in, people will go back and watch again 1896 01:48:50,040 --> 01:48:52,240 Speaker 2: to see if he was throwing the game. Remember when 1897 01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:56,880 Speaker 2: when Calvin Ridley got suspended for gambling, and the NFL 1898 01:48:57,000 --> 01:49:01,439 Speaker 2: was very clear that it was not on anything that 1899 01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:03,880 Speaker 2: he played in. He was hurting here, right, and it 1900 01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:07,599 Speaker 2: was not any insight information that he had to place 1901 01:49:07,680 --> 01:49:09,680 Speaker 2: his wages. He just was hurt and was gambled like 1902 01:49:09,720 --> 01:49:14,680 Speaker 2: the rest of us, right, okay, and and uh and 1903 01:49:14,880 --> 01:49:18,000 Speaker 2: and but then what happened was people went back and 1904 01:49:18,120 --> 01:49:22,560 Speaker 2: watched his highlights and tried to find plays where it 1905 01:49:22,680 --> 01:49:25,600 Speaker 2: looks like he was trying to lose the game and 1906 01:49:25,680 --> 01:49:28,320 Speaker 2: fix and throw the game right, when he very clearly 1907 01:49:28,720 --> 01:49:31,519 Speaker 2: according to what they found. And again, they have his bets, 1908 01:49:31,880 --> 01:49:35,160 Speaker 2: they have the information he wasn't even playing, so had 1909 01:49:35,160 --> 01:49:38,200 Speaker 2: nothing to do with with with his game day activity. 1910 01:49:38,960 --> 01:49:41,560 Speaker 2: But the problem is the integrity issue, right, is that 1911 01:49:41,720 --> 01:49:44,320 Speaker 2: now people go back and say, well, did he fall 1912 01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:46,960 Speaker 2: down to early? Here? Was he fixing the game? And 1913 01:49:47,080 --> 01:49:49,320 Speaker 2: that's the number one problem here with all this, right, 1914 01:49:49,439 --> 01:49:53,320 Speaker 2: is that when we watch sports today, we need and 1915 01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:58,200 Speaker 2: want and should believe everyone playing is playing in the 1916 01:49:58,240 --> 01:50:01,080 Speaker 2: spirit of competition right to win, not not to lose, obviously, 1917 01:50:01,080 --> 01:50:04,439 Speaker 2: but to win, right, and that we have to know 1918 01:50:04,760 --> 01:50:08,479 Speaker 2: that that's the ultimate goal. And when you start having 1919 01:50:08,520 --> 01:50:12,519 Speaker 2: these stories come out, it starts undermining the integrity of 1920 01:50:12,600 --> 01:50:16,120 Speaker 2: what we're watching. And that is why we the penalties 1921 01:50:16,160 --> 01:50:18,479 Speaker 2: have to be harsh, which they are, and you have 1922 01:50:18,640 --> 01:50:22,200 Speaker 2: to to lay the log down on this and on 1923 01:50:22,479 --> 01:50:26,960 Speaker 2: with this. This is happening, well, we know nowt at 1924 01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:29,960 Speaker 2: a tiny rate, right. Think about we have a couple 1925 01:50:29,960 --> 01:50:33,120 Speaker 2: of NBA players, two baseball players, right, I believe that 1926 01:50:33,400 --> 01:50:35,400 Speaker 2: like there've been baseball players to spend up for gambling, 1927 01:50:35,439 --> 01:50:37,679 Speaker 2: but not on their own games. There's been gambling in general. 1928 01:50:38,200 --> 01:50:40,519 Speaker 2: But we have two Indians two to meet, two Commanders 1929 01:50:40,600 --> 01:50:45,840 Speaker 2: players that we think we're throwing first pitch balls, and 1930 01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:48,200 Speaker 2: that's a whole different story. I have a lot of 1931 01:50:48,280 --> 01:50:50,479 Speaker 2: questions about that story. But we have a couple of 1932 01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:54,519 Speaker 2: NBA players, one coach, big issue. It's not a lot, okay, 1933 01:50:54,720 --> 01:50:58,280 Speaker 2: but it's enough to question the integrity of the sport 1934 01:50:58,400 --> 01:50:59,320 Speaker 2: and we just can't have that. 1935 01:51:00,479 --> 01:51:03,400 Speaker 3: So what do you make of Then people say, well, 1936 01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:08,479 Speaker 3: the referee scandal and then donneghe last night, I said, 1937 01:51:09,280 --> 01:51:11,880 Speaker 3: we've had a couples forever. We've had him forever before 1938 01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:16,080 Speaker 3: sports wageram became legal. No, I know, but it's even 1939 01:51:16,200 --> 01:51:20,800 Speaker 3: more pronounced that. It's everywhere and like one of the 1940 01:51:21,160 --> 01:51:27,400 Speaker 3: who was it, I think the New York Mob guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 1941 01:51:27,479 --> 01:51:29,960 Speaker 3: you know. So I he was like, I got two reps. 1942 01:51:30,560 --> 01:51:32,959 Speaker 3: I had two reps for three reps on my payroll. 1943 01:51:33,400 --> 01:51:35,680 Speaker 2: So I went to I went to elementary school with 1944 01:51:35,800 --> 01:51:38,800 Speaker 2: his kids in LA I like, I know, yeah, his 1945 01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:40,840 Speaker 2: daughter and his daughter was in the same grade as me, 1946 01:51:40,880 --> 01:51:42,000 Speaker 2: and his son was in the same grade as my 1947 01:51:42,080 --> 01:51:44,320 Speaker 2: brother and I. It's so funny. So I I didn't 1948 01:51:44,360 --> 01:51:45,880 Speaker 2: know who he was when we were kids, but I 1949 01:51:45,960 --> 01:51:47,840 Speaker 2: think he was mostly around, but I think he went 1950 01:51:47,880 --> 01:51:49,519 Speaker 2: away for a couple of years. I remember like he 1951 01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:52,000 Speaker 2: was not around, than he wasn't And then I remember 1952 01:51:53,120 --> 01:51:54,960 Speaker 2: he came and spoke to us at Oregon because you 1953 01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:56,479 Speaker 2: know that when he got out, he was doing the 1954 01:51:56,520 --> 01:52:01,000 Speaker 2: whole like you know, yeah, you know, and uh, he 1955 01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:04,160 Speaker 2: saw me and I could tell he turned like white 1956 01:52:04,160 --> 01:52:05,640 Speaker 2: in the face, like he was like shocked, like he 1957 01:52:05,760 --> 01:52:07,880 Speaker 2: saw like very clear knew who I was. It was 1958 01:52:08,000 --> 01:52:12,120 Speaker 2: very wow. Yeah, it was very funny. And uh and yeah, 1959 01:52:12,120 --> 01:52:13,960 Speaker 2: I went to school with this kid, yeah, in Los Angeles, 1960 01:52:14,120 --> 01:52:18,200 Speaker 2: Warner and Warner Elementary. Wow. That's wild, that's wild. Okay, 1961 01:52:18,280 --> 01:52:20,880 Speaker 2: I mean we're there. I didn't know. I didn't know. Yeah, 1962 01:52:21,439 --> 01:52:24,760 Speaker 2: but but yeah, yeah, so I find his story so 1963 01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:29,280 Speaker 2: interesting about why he's he's still here. I mean to 1964 01:52:29,400 --> 01:52:31,320 Speaker 2: talk that much as a mobster. We keep hearing you 1965 01:52:31,400 --> 01:52:34,639 Speaker 2: can't do that. You can't do that obviously protected. But yeah, look, 1966 01:52:35,080 --> 01:52:39,880 Speaker 2: basketball is the easiest sport, in my opinion, to fix. 1967 01:52:40,600 --> 01:52:43,400 Speaker 2: We've had the most scandals in basketball for many reasons. 1968 01:52:45,000 --> 01:52:49,360 Speaker 2: And you can fix the game in basketball and still 1969 01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:51,360 Speaker 2: make it look like it's real basketball. That's what makes 1970 01:52:51,400 --> 01:52:54,479 Speaker 2: it really tough, is that you're an official, right, you 1971 01:52:54,520 --> 01:52:57,160 Speaker 2: can affect the total of the game and make it 1972 01:52:57,240 --> 01:53:00,120 Speaker 2: look like it's a regular basketball game. I know the 1973 01:53:00,200 --> 01:53:02,960 Speaker 2: idea and that's what's happened. By the way, the official 1974 01:53:03,160 --> 01:53:05,759 Speaker 2: is more about the total than it is the points spread, 1975 01:53:06,439 --> 01:53:08,639 Speaker 2: because you can't control like whether guys like make a shop. 1976 01:53:08,680 --> 01:53:09,920 Speaker 2: You can control how many times you go to the 1977 01:53:09,960 --> 01:53:14,880 Speaker 2: foul lining, right, and so it's just always going to 1978 01:53:14,920 --> 01:53:17,479 Speaker 2: happen in basketball, whether or not we take away legal 1979 01:53:17,520 --> 01:53:22,240 Speaker 2: sports wagering. The player go ahead, No, I was just 1980 01:53:22,320 --> 01:53:26,720 Speaker 2: listening to the player prop question is fair because the 1981 01:53:26,840 --> 01:53:29,640 Speaker 2: question is if I go on an app right now, 1982 01:53:30,600 --> 01:53:32,200 Speaker 2: I might be early, too early in the morning to 1983 01:53:32,240 --> 01:53:35,360 Speaker 2: have full player props up on NBA games, but you know, 1984 01:53:35,920 --> 01:53:37,960 Speaker 2: should I be able to wager on the ninth guy 1985 01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:39,519 Speaker 2: to go over under their points? 1986 01:53:42,280 --> 01:53:47,840 Speaker 3: It tight because my real worry and problem is not 1987 01:53:48,080 --> 01:53:52,080 Speaker 3: welling with professional sports, but with college props. 1988 01:53:52,520 --> 01:53:54,599 Speaker 2: Let's talk that because there's not a lot of available. 1989 01:53:54,640 --> 01:53:56,120 Speaker 2: So we're talking. 1990 01:53:55,960 --> 01:54:00,400 Speaker 3: About all right, fellas, hang it right here, Fox Sports Radio. 1991 01:54:00,680 --> 01:54:05,720 Speaker 3: All right, fellas from the Fox Sports Radio studios, and 1992 01:54:05,840 --> 01:54:09,400 Speaker 3: and Jeff hanging out with you, all right, So we're 1993 01:54:09,479 --> 01:54:12,920 Speaker 3: just talking about these props, right, So I mean I 1994 01:54:13,120 --> 01:54:13,840 Speaker 3: just pulled. 1995 01:54:13,640 --> 01:54:17,080 Speaker 2: Up an NBA game, all right, that's one of them. Yeah, 1996 01:54:17,120 --> 01:54:21,720 Speaker 2: I just pulled up my my sixers right, So. 1997 01:54:23,840 --> 01:54:27,080 Speaker 3: You know you got all your any point total you 1998 01:54:27,240 --> 01:54:35,080 Speaker 3: want threes, rebounds, assists, combos, steals, I mean you get 1999 01:54:35,160 --> 01:54:39,640 Speaker 3: all that stuff right, So you know you could spread 2000 01:54:39,640 --> 01:54:42,560 Speaker 3: around unders everywhere or if a guy, if you know 2001 01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:43,640 Speaker 3: a guy's not playing. 2002 01:54:44,080 --> 01:54:48,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and in college, brother, like that's the thing that's scary. 2003 01:54:49,680 --> 01:54:55,040 Speaker 3: You could bet on passing props, receiving props, rushing props. 2004 01:54:55,640 --> 01:55:00,400 Speaker 2: So you shan't as much as you think as someone 2005 01:55:00,440 --> 01:55:05,480 Speaker 2: who tries to. Quite often the college football will just 2006 01:55:05,520 --> 01:55:09,240 Speaker 2: look at football. There's not a lot up for that market, 2007 01:55:09,440 --> 01:55:11,960 Speaker 2: and a lot of times it's not even up until 2008 01:55:12,240 --> 01:55:14,720 Speaker 2: the game is close to beginning. So like right now, 2009 01:55:15,200 --> 01:55:20,160 Speaker 2: if I go to like when we got almost Oklahoma, right, 2010 01:55:20,200 --> 01:55:23,840 Speaker 2: we talked about the game earlier. They have only one 2011 01:55:23,880 --> 01:55:26,360 Speaker 2: way markets. First of all, so a two way market 2012 01:55:26,440 --> 01:55:28,800 Speaker 2: means you bet the over in the under right. One 2013 01:55:28,840 --> 01:55:32,240 Speaker 2: way market is just betting the over right. So they 2014 01:55:32,360 --> 01:55:37,520 Speaker 2: have pastor to past tds for Chamblison and Matier. Right 2015 01:55:38,240 --> 01:55:42,839 Speaker 2: receiving props, they have a couple of a four wide receivers, 2016 01:55:42,920 --> 01:55:46,520 Speaker 2: five wide receivers, right, you bet only overs right, rushing 2017 01:55:46,960 --> 01:55:50,320 Speaker 2: same thing, four running backs only overs, only overs. But 2018 01:55:50,400 --> 01:55:54,000 Speaker 2: if I go to like Carolina, and so Carolina Virginia 2019 01:55:54,080 --> 01:55:56,320 Speaker 2: is up as well. Again the same sort of deal, right, like, 2020 01:55:56,360 --> 01:56:00,680 Speaker 2: can only bet like overs, so you can't my situation, 2021 01:56:00,800 --> 01:56:06,400 Speaker 2: where so the question becomes like you do you allow yourself? 2022 01:56:06,520 --> 01:56:08,640 Speaker 2: Do we make props just one of my markets? So 2023 01:56:08,680 --> 01:56:13,640 Speaker 2: we make them only only only overs essentially now to 2024 01:56:13,720 --> 01:56:17,840 Speaker 2: be fair too, not every book offers that. Not every 2025 01:56:17,880 --> 01:56:21,160 Speaker 2: book offers like there are other books that don't. I'm 2026 01:56:21,200 --> 01:56:23,520 Speaker 2: on another one right now that does not offer college props. 2027 01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:26,840 Speaker 2: They just don't offer college props. Also, some states don't 2028 01:56:26,880 --> 01:56:29,960 Speaker 2: offer college props. Some states like New York and go 2029 01:56:30,000 --> 01:56:32,040 Speaker 2: to New York once a week. You can't wager on 2030 01:56:32,160 --> 01:56:34,040 Speaker 2: the college teams in New York. In Oregon, you can't 2031 01:56:34,040 --> 01:56:38,560 Speaker 2: wager on the college teams that played Oregon. So there 2032 01:56:38,640 --> 01:56:40,720 Speaker 2: are regulations of states have put in place to help 2033 01:56:40,760 --> 01:56:42,280 Speaker 2: with that. The only problem is you could do it 2034 01:56:42,880 --> 01:56:46,120 Speaker 2: out of state most right, like most of them, I 2035 01:56:46,160 --> 01:56:48,920 Speaker 2: don't even I don't know many offshours to have college props. 2036 01:56:50,040 --> 01:56:54,080 Speaker 2: There are some, but like I I've never tried to 2037 01:56:54,120 --> 01:56:57,000 Speaker 2: ben a college prop on offshores. I don't think they're 2038 01:56:57,000 --> 01:57:00,720 Speaker 2: available very off Again, they are probably available, like write 2039 01:57:00,760 --> 01:57:02,960 Speaker 2: a kickoff sometimes, so they try to like wait till 2040 01:57:02,960 --> 01:57:07,200 Speaker 2: the very end. But I don't think props for you know, 2041 01:57:07,560 --> 01:57:12,440 Speaker 2: national championship game, yes, week nine. I don't know. I'll 2042 01:57:12,480 --> 01:57:13,880 Speaker 2: look right now. To be honest with you, I think 2043 01:57:13,880 --> 01:57:16,400 Speaker 2: I think there might be, like the big the big 2044 01:57:16,480 --> 01:57:19,600 Speaker 2: games might have college props, but you're not going to 2045 01:57:19,680 --> 01:57:24,360 Speaker 2: find them. I think widespread like you do in the NFL, ORBA. 2046 01:57:24,360 --> 01:57:25,920 Speaker 2: And the one thing with college basketball. We talk a 2047 01:57:25,960 --> 01:57:29,080 Speaker 2: lot about college basketball. I don't bet college basketball props. 2048 01:57:29,080 --> 01:57:31,000 Speaker 2: I would even I've never even been to that tab before. 2049 01:57:31,640 --> 01:57:34,600 Speaker 2: I don't think they have them. So it's the college 2050 01:57:34,640 --> 01:57:36,880 Speaker 2: things again, it's about the if you can find a 2051 01:57:36,960 --> 01:57:42,440 Speaker 2: small school, typically a smaller school, and you bet again 2052 01:57:42,600 --> 01:57:46,560 Speaker 2: those games and you bet you know the yeah, I'm 2053 01:57:46,560 --> 01:57:49,280 Speaker 2: all show right now. So they have receiving yards, two 2054 01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:52,640 Speaker 2: way markets on receiving yards. Okay, so passing yards, touchdowns, 2055 01:57:52,680 --> 01:57:55,360 Speaker 2: receiving yards, rushing yards, but not not as many players 2056 01:57:55,400 --> 01:57:57,440 Speaker 2: like the number one wide receiver for both teams, right, 2057 01:57:57,640 --> 01:57:59,760 Speaker 2: and the number one running back, which those guys are 2058 01:58:00,280 --> 01:58:03,240 Speaker 2: unlikely to to throw games and to throw their props anyways. 2059 01:58:03,640 --> 01:58:08,000 Speaker 2: So again, I mean it's a very nuanced conversation, and 2060 01:58:08,720 --> 01:58:11,320 Speaker 2: I'm curious to see it feels like nothing's gonna happen, 2061 01:58:11,360 --> 01:58:13,640 Speaker 2: like states are not gonna just you know, decide to 2062 01:58:13,720 --> 01:58:17,600 Speaker 2: ban props. But you know there's a lot of money involved, right. 2063 01:58:17,720 --> 01:58:19,320 Speaker 2: That's also a part of it as well, is like 2064 01:58:19,360 --> 01:58:21,120 Speaker 2: are you gonna are you gonna lose that gambling income 2065 01:58:21,200 --> 01:58:23,040 Speaker 2: on your you know, your your tax revenue. You know 2066 01:58:23,040 --> 01:58:25,600 Speaker 2: you just stay like Jersey, like New York, like they 2067 01:58:25,720 --> 01:58:29,360 Speaker 2: make a lot of money on the tax revenue of 2068 01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:30,320 Speaker 2: of gambling. 2069 01:58:30,960 --> 01:58:36,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. No, it's a good point, and it's I mean, 2070 01:58:36,840 --> 01:58:42,920 Speaker 3: the issue comes in what these leagues because of the 2071 01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:47,000 Speaker 3: integrity factor. It just all comes down to that. You mean, 2072 01:58:47,120 --> 01:58:49,440 Speaker 3: you made a statement about the NFL, and it's kind 2073 01:58:49,440 --> 01:58:54,600 Speaker 3: of interesting how the NFL can be because it was 2074 01:58:54,880 --> 01:58:58,160 Speaker 3: always that was those odds rigged, like you know, people 2075 01:58:58,160 --> 01:59:01,240 Speaker 3: always say that stuff. And it's like, do you remember 2076 01:59:01,280 --> 01:59:04,440 Speaker 3: who was it that came out with a script and 2077 01:59:04,560 --> 01:59:08,880 Speaker 3: people people went bananas. They were like, oh yeah about 2078 01:59:08,920 --> 01:59:12,680 Speaker 3: this script. It was like a running back who said 2079 01:59:13,040 --> 01:59:15,160 Speaker 3: it was great he came out with this script thing 2080 01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:16,160 Speaker 3: and it made I. 2081 01:59:16,200 --> 01:59:17,880 Speaker 2: Think it was Adrian Foss start a podcast. 2082 01:59:18,000 --> 01:59:23,200 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, yes, And it was like a ridiculous 2083 01:59:23,240 --> 01:59:25,160 Speaker 3: I thought, you know, he said, what do you say 2084 01:59:25,200 --> 01:59:26,200 Speaker 3: there was there was a script? 2085 01:59:26,760 --> 01:59:29,640 Speaker 2: Yes? But is it also isn't? Isn't also on a 2086 01:59:29,720 --> 01:59:34,720 Speaker 2: podcast that discusses discusses conspiracies, like that's like the podcast was, Michael, 2087 01:59:36,520 --> 01:59:38,520 Speaker 2: there's no scripts. Okay, I didn't get a script. I 2088 01:59:38,560 --> 01:59:40,920 Speaker 2: wish I had a script. I wish I knew. Look, 2089 01:59:40,960 --> 01:59:44,240 Speaker 2: here's what the NFL. Okay, if the NFL was rigged, 2090 01:59:44,240 --> 01:59:47,120 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys were winning Super Bowls, Okay, they'd had 2091 01:59:47,160 --> 01:59:49,360 Speaker 2: the most popular team winning instead. Right now, we the 2092 01:59:49,480 --> 01:59:52,400 Speaker 2: number one team in the AFC is in Indianapolis. Right, 2093 01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:56,640 Speaker 2: it's not scripted, right, fell is big? Last, how we're 2094 01:59:56,720 --> 01:59:58,320 Speaker 2: coming up next?

Was it catchable? Yes, 2262 02:08:57,720 --> 02:08:59,760 Speaker 2: you should have caught it. And then I ask, I 2263 02:08:59,840 --> 02:09:01,840 Speaker 2: mean afterwards, she knows, Dad, it was a bad throat. 2264 02:09:01,880 --> 02:09:05,560 Speaker 2: I couldn't catch it. Uh, And then like stuff like 2265 02:09:05,640 --> 02:09:08,200 Speaker 2: and then Emmy got Emmy got hit with the ball, 2266 02:09:08,280 --> 02:09:10,560 Speaker 2: and and she's like that girl should be pitching anymore. 2267 02:09:10,600 --> 02:09:14,720 Speaker 2: She had two girls in a row. I go, oh, okay, 2268 02:09:16,440 --> 02:09:18,880 Speaker 2: I I let them have it. I said something. I go, 2269 02:09:19,080 --> 02:09:21,760 Speaker 2: what did you say? What do you mean? I said something? 2270 02:09:24,040 --> 02:09:27,680 Speaker 2: You said something? Please? What is it? What does that mean? 2271 02:09:27,720 --> 02:09:30,840 Speaker 2: You said something, and like the game ran like they 2272 02:09:30,880 --> 02:09:33,560 Speaker 2: have they have time limits for softball, seventy five minutes. 2273 02:09:33,600 --> 02:09:35,120 Speaker 2: It's it's super short. I don't know why. It's having 2274 02:09:35,120 --> 02:09:37,120 Speaker 2: the boys. The boys are already bit it's unfairly girls 2275 02:09:37,400 --> 02:09:40,160 Speaker 2: thirty five minutes. But like it went to. The game 2276 02:09:40,280 --> 02:09:43,640 Speaker 2: was super long because you know, the home team has 2277 02:09:43,720 --> 02:09:46,920 Speaker 2: a chance. You know, when the timer hits, the home 2278 02:09:46,960 --> 02:09:49,960 Speaker 2: team has to bat if they're behind, right, that's the way, 2279 02:09:50,120 --> 02:09:52,600 Speaker 2: obviously right to make it fair. So games took extra long, 2280 02:09:52,760 --> 02:09:54,520 Speaker 2: like the game is taking too long. Ago, it takes 2281 02:09:54,560 --> 02:09:55,360 Speaker 2: as long as it takes. 2282 02:09:58,600 --> 02:09:58,800 Speaker 1: Tell you. 2283 02:09:59,320 --> 02:10:01,600 Speaker 2: It's just like, dude, it's just a constant stream of 2284 02:10:01,720 --> 02:10:04,640 Speaker 2: like imagine going to an event that you don't really 2285 02:10:05,200 --> 02:10:08,240 Speaker 2: she'd understand sports, right, but it's like it's dude, it's 2286 02:10:08,600 --> 02:10:12,040 Speaker 2: she's so passionate about it, but yet then doesn't really 2287 02:10:12,480 --> 02:10:15,520 Speaker 2: like the end. It's dude, it's so I should tend 2288 02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:16,760 Speaker 2: them to you when she sends them to me. It's 2289 02:10:16,800 --> 02:10:19,760 Speaker 2: just a stream of like, it's so funny, dude, it's 2290 02:10:19,760 --> 02:10:22,000 Speaker 2: so fun I mean I tagged that at home. That 2291 02:10:22,440 --> 02:10:24,920 Speaker 2: tends something. Okay, can you explain to play besides that, 2292 02:10:25,040 --> 02:10:25,640 Speaker 2: I don't know what that? 2293 02:10:26,080 --> 02:10:26,280 Speaker 1: Sure? 2294 02:10:26,480 --> 02:10:28,800 Speaker 2: I tagged out, what does that mean? How else I 2295 02:10:28,840 --> 02:10:30,880 Speaker 2: feel about that? It's the best. It's the best, dude, 2296 02:10:30,880 --> 02:10:33,160 Speaker 2: I love it so much. That's classic. 2297 02:10:33,280 --> 02:10:37,160 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, dated a home run and then you realize that, well, no, 2298 02:10:37,400 --> 02:10:38,640 Speaker 3: they just kind of scored a run. 2299 02:10:38,760 --> 02:10:41,320 Speaker 2: That's what I have that issue too. Well, she's like, Emmy, 2300 02:10:41,440 --> 02:10:44,200 Speaker 2: Emmy hit a EDMI hit a home I go, she 2301 02:10:44,360 --> 02:10:47,560 Speaker 2: hit a home run. Well, no, she hit a single 2302 02:10:47,600 --> 02:10:49,560 Speaker 2: and then then the girl threw it away three times. 2303 02:10:50,600 --> 02:10:52,680 Speaker 2: That is one thing about about you sports, by the way, 2304 02:10:52,720 --> 02:10:54,560 Speaker 2: that I have to teach my kids. And it's a 2305 02:10:54,680 --> 02:10:57,760 Speaker 2: fine line. Where like my son the other day had 2306 02:10:57,800 --> 02:10:59,400 Speaker 2: three hits in a game. All right, it was a 2307 02:10:59,440 --> 02:11:02,240 Speaker 2: good game. He had a double and he had two singles. 2308 02:11:02,320 --> 02:11:04,400 Speaker 2: We got the second on error on one of his singles. 2309 02:11:05,200 --> 02:11:07,840 Speaker 2: And he tells my dad on FaceTime. He's like, He's like, 2310 02:11:08,000 --> 02:11:10,360 Speaker 2: He's like, Papa, I got one and a half doubles, 2311 02:11:13,000 --> 02:11:15,120 Speaker 2: he said, he said, he said, I I know, I 2312 02:11:15,320 --> 02:11:17,720 Speaker 2: know that it was an error, but I'm counting in 2313 02:11:17,800 --> 02:11:20,560 Speaker 2: my head as a double. And I'm like, good, buddy, 2314 02:11:20,680 --> 02:11:23,640 Speaker 2: good for you man, good like whatever whatever you want. 2315 02:11:23,720 --> 02:11:26,120 Speaker 2: But that part of it, like Emmy, that actually was 2316 02:11:26,160 --> 02:11:28,080 Speaker 2: a single in a three base error, but if you 2317 02:11:28,120 --> 02:11:32,640 Speaker 2: want to believe it's a home run, I'm like, so, 2318 02:11:32,960 --> 02:11:34,760 Speaker 2: you know, she's note, I'm not really going to tell 2319 02:11:34,760 --> 02:11:36,280 Speaker 2: that to her face. I don't really say that to her, 2320 02:11:36,360 --> 02:11:38,880 Speaker 2: but like it is that point of like at some 2321 02:11:38,960 --> 02:11:41,320 Speaker 2: point you start teaching them, like what it actually is 2322 02:11:41,520 --> 02:11:44,320 Speaker 2: on the scoreboard, on the score sheet, on the scorebook. 2323 02:11:44,400 --> 02:11:46,400 Speaker 3: But you know what's funny because my kids are older, 2324 02:11:46,640 --> 02:11:51,200 Speaker 3: like it happens organically. Of course it does, yes, right, 2325 02:11:51,320 --> 02:11:54,880 Speaker 3: Like so like my like Masimo is the baseball player, 2326 02:11:54,960 --> 02:11:58,840 Speaker 3: like he you know, once he hit his first home run, 2327 02:11:58,960 --> 02:12:02,440 Speaker 3: like a legit over the fence home run, and I 2328 02:12:02,520 --> 02:12:05,480 Speaker 3: mean it well, he understood the perspective of it, right, 2329 02:12:05,720 --> 02:12:09,680 Speaker 3: like wow, it's not the same as the ball travel 2330 02:12:09,720 --> 02:12:12,240 Speaker 3: and hit the line drive and through the gap and 2331 02:12:12,400 --> 02:12:15,880 Speaker 3: center and left and running all you know inside the park, 2332 02:12:17,000 --> 02:12:19,120 Speaker 3: it was, oh my god, I actually hit a home 2333 02:12:19,240 --> 02:12:21,720 Speaker 3: run over the water.

But uh, 2346 02:12:54,880 --> 02:12:56,840 Speaker 2: there's nothing better than watching them play sports. Yeah. 2347 02:12:57,000 --> 02:13:01,160 Speaker 3: Wa yeah, it's just more the time, the busy aspect, 2348 02:13:01,280 --> 02:13:04,440 Speaker 3: like you're just like you're you're just going, you're just rolling. 2349 02:13:04,560 --> 02:13:06,920 Speaker 2: It's the best man, and I won't trade for the world. 2350 02:13:06,920 --> 02:13:09,680 Speaker 2: And it goes by fast. So we ended baseball last joy, 2351 02:13:09,840 --> 02:13:12,000 Speaker 2: We ended baseball last night. He's got basketball tryouts today, 2352 02:13:12,040 --> 02:13:15,520 Speaker 2: Like it's just it never stops. Yeah yeah, yeah, that's great. 2353 02:13:16,760 --> 02:13:17,120 Speaker 2: All right. 2354 02:13:17,760 --> 02:13:20,240 Speaker 3: The one off shoot that we haven't covered that I 2355 02:13:20,360 --> 02:13:23,920 Speaker 3: want to ask about with the NBA, is do you 2356 02:13:24,560 --> 02:13:29,800 Speaker 3: how big of an issue does that league have? Like 2357 02:13:30,080 --> 02:13:34,760 Speaker 3: we've talked about general in sports, but the NBA has 2358 02:13:35,080 --> 02:13:38,080 Speaker 3: all it feels like it has all kinds of issues 2359 02:13:38,120 --> 02:13:41,320 Speaker 3: allful And you said something I completely agree with the 2360 02:13:41,480 --> 02:13:46,080 Speaker 3: basketball was a lot of fun this week. Like you know, 2361 02:13:46,200 --> 02:13:52,720 Speaker 3: we got webby Luca and okay, okaysee uh my my 2362 02:13:52,880 --> 02:13:54,920 Speaker 3: squad had an edgecomb go off. 2363 02:13:55,160 --> 02:13:58,240 Speaker 2: I mean, how about his story. I love this story. 2364 02:13:58,280 --> 02:14:02,000 Speaker 2: When he mentioned he's great kids men, I love the kid. Yeah, 2365 02:14:02,080 --> 02:14:04,000 Speaker 2: you know he lived off a generator for seven years. 2366 02:14:04,040 --> 02:14:07,640 Speaker 2: I think, right, he said, yeah, so you guys need 2367 02:14:07,720 --> 02:14:09,600 Speaker 2: some of that juice, I think on your team. Oh 2368 02:14:09,720 --> 02:14:10,040 Speaker 2: my god. 2369 02:14:10,120 --> 02:14:14,360 Speaker 3: And they got two like I'm a huge Tyrese Maxey guy, 2370 02:14:14,480 --> 02:14:17,200 Speaker 3: Like he's a great kid, and the two of them 2371 02:14:17,240 --> 02:14:21,440 Speaker 3: have really good energy, like really good energy. So it's 2372 02:14:21,480 --> 02:14:25,680 Speaker 3: a lot of fun. But you got referees. You know, 2373 02:14:26,040 --> 02:14:29,240 Speaker 3: people talk about referees, and we just saw the Donneghie thing, 2374 02:14:29,440 --> 02:14:33,680 Speaker 3: and there's all the you know, load management stuff, and 2375 02:14:33,720 --> 02:14:38,760 Speaker 3: then what Chwantsey Billups does is completely open up a 2376 02:14:39,000 --> 02:14:43,240 Speaker 3: whole can of worms from the coaching aspect, and every 2377 02:14:43,480 --> 02:14:48,200 Speaker 3: every bad, weird coaching decision will now be you know, 2378 02:14:48,360 --> 02:14:49,320 Speaker 3: under the microscope. 2379 02:14:50,640 --> 02:14:54,400 Speaker 2: Unfortunately, that's that's where we're at. This is this is 2380 02:14:54,520 --> 02:14:59,400 Speaker 2: why we talk about why this is important, right and 2381 02:14:59,680 --> 02:15:05,280 Speaker 2: why it's just you have to have uh, really stiff 2382 02:15:05,360 --> 02:15:11,440 Speaker 2: punishments like, I think it's worth exploring whether Chauncey Billups 2383 02:15:11,520 --> 02:15:14,320 Speaker 2: should be a Hall of Famer anymore. Yeah, like I 2384 02:15:14,520 --> 02:15:18,640 Speaker 2: think those are. I think you have to have harsh 2385 02:15:18,680 --> 02:15:22,280 Speaker 2: punishes when I watch games today, I need to know 2386 02:15:22,480 --> 02:15:24,000 Speaker 2: that they are on the up and up, and that 2387 02:15:24,240 --> 02:15:27,640 Speaker 2: the competitors are playing not for the love of the game. 2388 02:15:27,640 --> 02:15:29,520 Speaker 2: They're getting paid of course, and I l it up, 2389 02:15:29,560 --> 02:15:31,560 Speaker 2: but you know they're in it's true competition, right, it's 2390 02:15:31,560 --> 02:15:37,480 Speaker 2: too spreads. And if I think they're rigged, I've never 2391 02:15:37,520 --> 02:15:40,160 Speaker 2: thought they're rigged from the top level obviously, But if 2392 02:15:40,200 --> 02:15:44,200 Speaker 2: I think that they're rigged, then obviously what I'm watching 2393 02:15:44,360 --> 02:15:46,760 Speaker 2: is not not a real product. But just it's not 2394 02:15:46,840 --> 02:15:48,560 Speaker 2: the product I think I think it should be. And 2395 02:15:48,720 --> 02:15:50,880 Speaker 2: and to be fair, like it's sort of as fraud, right, 2396 02:15:50,920 --> 02:15:53,960 Speaker 2: like you're you're you're defrauding all of us as fans. 2397 02:15:54,000 --> 02:15:56,680 Speaker 2: That's not a real fraud, of course, but you're defrauding 2398 02:15:56,800 --> 02:16:03,040 Speaker 2: us as fans. And it's look I said this before, 2399 02:16:03,040 --> 02:16:09,760 Speaker 2: and it's like the NFL suspends players more harshly for 2400 02:16:10,000 --> 02:16:16,200 Speaker 2: gambling related quote unquote crimes than someone who puts their 2401 02:16:16,240 --> 02:16:20,400 Speaker 2: hands on women. Think about that, the punishment is more 2402 02:16:21,120 --> 02:16:24,160 Speaker 2: for gambling than someone who puts their hand on a woman. 2403 02:16:24,960 --> 02:16:32,760 Speaker 2: And that's because, unfortunately, unfortunately, one of them is more 2404 02:16:32,800 --> 02:16:35,440 Speaker 2: about the integrity of the league, which is the gambling, right, 2405 02:16:36,280 --> 02:16:42,640 Speaker 2: then the other one, right like the league. You might 2406 02:16:43,120 --> 02:16:47,280 Speaker 2: obviously in like real life, putting your hands on a 2407 02:16:47,320 --> 02:16:51,600 Speaker 2: woman is far worse than the gambling. But the integrity 2408 02:16:51,640 --> 02:16:53,920 Speaker 2: of the shield, right, This is what Roger Goodell's goal is, 2409 02:16:53,959 --> 02:16:57,080 Speaker 2: to protect the shield. If people think games are rigged, 2410 02:16:57,879 --> 02:17:01,440 Speaker 2: they're not going to watch. If people we have evidence 2411 02:17:01,520 --> 02:17:06,440 Speaker 2: that people will watch and root for players that unfortunately 2412 02:17:06,800 --> 02:17:09,840 Speaker 2: have crimes, right Like, we see that. And so that's 2413 02:17:09,879 --> 02:17:12,600 Speaker 2: when the NFL they give ok a year suspension for gambling, 2414 02:17:12,800 --> 02:17:16,080 Speaker 2: six games for domestic violence. That right there, I think 2415 02:17:16,200 --> 02:17:21,280 Speaker 2: is the clearest picture you have for why leagues are 2416 02:17:21,400 --> 02:17:24,880 Speaker 2: so adamant about getting this out. They don't want this either, 2417 02:17:25,040 --> 02:17:30,279 Speaker 2: like they welcome all the regulation, all the eyeballs, because 2418 02:17:31,160 --> 02:17:34,240 Speaker 2: this for them is the most valuable thing. You cannot 2419 02:17:34,240 --> 02:17:35,879 Speaker 2: have people question the integrity of your sport. 2420 02:17:37,360 --> 02:17:42,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think the integrity piece of it was 2421 02:17:43,160 --> 02:17:49,160 Speaker 3: vital in this whole partnership. You know, the NBA is 2422 02:17:49,240 --> 02:17:54,160 Speaker 3: the one sport that's completely under the microscope. The load 2423 02:17:54,320 --> 02:17:57,119 Speaker 3: management thing is the biggest problem. 2424 02:17:57,040 --> 02:18:02,080 Speaker 2: Right, like achieved more of a problem than than the 2425 02:18:02,240 --> 02:18:07,320 Speaker 2: all what happened this week. So so I'm I watch 2426 02:18:07,360 --> 02:18:09,440 Speaker 2: a little bit of NBA in the postseason. I don't watch. 2427 02:18:09,520 --> 02:18:11,120 Speaker 2: I we rarely met. I don't watch a ton now, 2428 02:18:11,120 --> 02:18:13,120 Speaker 2: even though I've watched actually probably more this year than 2429 02:18:13,120 --> 02:18:16,560 Speaker 2: I have in the past. But I'm probably the consumer 2430 02:18:16,680 --> 02:18:18,680 Speaker 2: that the NBA wants as far as, like you know, 2431 02:18:19,240 --> 02:18:22,760 Speaker 2: I have money, Like I like watching sports. I can 2432 02:18:23,000 --> 02:18:25,560 Speaker 2: go to a game if I want to, And I 2433 02:18:25,680 --> 02:18:27,640 Speaker 2: try to go one Lakers game every year, and they 2434 02:18:27,640 --> 02:18:31,600 Speaker 2: come to Charlotte. One year I went and Ad and 2435 02:18:31,720 --> 02:18:36,560 Speaker 2: Lebron both didn't play. I've never been back. Why would 2436 02:18:36,560 --> 02:18:37,800 Speaker 2: I go back? Right? 2437 02:18:37,920 --> 02:18:37,960 Speaker 4: What? 2438 02:18:39,000 --> 02:18:41,280 Speaker 2: Well, now they play November tenth, Actually they play, come 2439 02:18:41,280 --> 02:18:43,280 Speaker 2: to Charlotte a couple weeks. Maybe it's Monday night. Maybe 2440 02:18:43,280 --> 02:18:44,920 Speaker 2: I'll go. Maybe I'll go. By that time of year, 2441 02:18:45,120 --> 02:18:46,840 Speaker 2: Lebron might be back. I don't. I don't think so. 2442 02:18:47,640 --> 02:18:50,039 Speaker 2: But like Luca seems to play every night, so maybe 2443 02:18:50,120 --> 02:18:53,240 Speaker 2: Luca will be I'll go watch Luca play. But like 2444 02:18:53,360 --> 02:18:56,320 Speaker 2: I spent real money, like you know, we had seats, 2445 02:18:56,360 --> 02:18:59,360 Speaker 2: like really good seats me and my son, and neither 2446 02:18:59,400 --> 02:19:01,040 Speaker 2: of the stars play. I think one out of knee 2447 02:19:01,040 --> 02:19:03,520 Speaker 2: injuries back to back. Lebron didn't play. Maybe Ad was 2448 02:19:03,520 --> 02:19:07,400 Speaker 2: really hurt. I don't remember. But it's like you have 2449 02:19:07,800 --> 02:19:11,119 Speaker 2: people that can't afford to go to games. They get 2450 02:19:11,160 --> 02:19:12,480 Speaker 2: a ticket for a game thinking that they're going to 2451 02:19:12,520 --> 02:19:16,600 Speaker 2: see a superstar play. They get there and superstars not 2452 02:19:16,640 --> 02:19:20,959 Speaker 2: playing because they're resting. I understand the point. The goals 2453 02:19:20,959 --> 02:19:22,600 Speaker 2: win a championship and if you have to rest to 2454 02:19:22,640 --> 02:19:25,360 Speaker 2: get there, be my guest, but like it really does 2455 02:19:25,480 --> 02:19:29,240 Speaker 2: hurt the fan product and the fan engagement when you 2456 02:19:29,320 --> 02:19:31,240 Speaker 2: don't play because you're just resting. Like the NBA has 2457 02:19:31,240 --> 02:19:32,600 Speaker 2: got to deal with to your point, deal with that 2458 02:19:32,760 --> 02:19:35,480 Speaker 2: first in my opinion, and sort of the gambling stuff second. 2459 02:19:36,200 --> 02:19:41,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, because you want to make sure that 2460 02:19:42,000 --> 02:19:46,920 Speaker 3: you're able to have a regular season that's watchable. 2461 02:19:51,040 --> 02:19:53,400 Speaker 2: It's been far more watchable than the first two days 2462 02:19:53,400 --> 02:19:55,720 Speaker 2: than I think ever, Like, these games have been really good. 2463 02:19:55,840 --> 02:19:58,840 Speaker 2: The NBA does have that problem where the postseason looks 2464 02:19:58,879 --> 02:20:01,160 Speaker 2: nothing like the regular season. Yeah, I don't know, man, 2465 02:20:01,520 --> 02:20:03,879 Speaker 2: the first couple of days have been really good basketball. 2466 02:20:03,920 --> 02:20:06,480 Speaker 2: I mean, okay, see games the Lakers Wemby is like 2467 02:20:06,640 --> 02:20:14,000 Speaker 2: it just incredible show, and the rookies are fun, right right. Yeah, 2468 02:20:14,080 --> 02:20:17,160 Speaker 2: you know we talked about Edgecomb he was flat had 2469 02:20:17,280 --> 02:20:19,959 Speaker 2: three at half time, I think ended up with ten 2470 02:20:20,560 --> 02:20:24,119 Speaker 2: twenty twas night, like you're talking about that last yeah, 2471 02:20:24,480 --> 02:20:27,440 Speaker 2: first light was ten and ten. Yeah, so like yeah, 2472 02:20:27,440 --> 02:20:29,280 Speaker 2: and then you you just have you have these dudes 2473 02:20:29,400 --> 02:20:32,680 Speaker 2: and Utah one game one, which is shocking. Like even 2474 02:20:32,760 --> 02:20:34,879 Speaker 2: my horner, I think, not my Hornets, but my Hornets 2475 02:20:34,879 --> 02:20:36,200 Speaker 2: are gonna be fun this year. Man, they got they 2476 02:20:36,240 --> 02:20:37,840 Speaker 2: got like they got a fun group of guys. So 2477 02:20:38,160 --> 02:20:40,280 Speaker 2: it does feel like a pretty fun NBA seasons ahead of. 2478 02:20:40,320 --> 02:20:44,360 Speaker 3: Two squad, they're actually playing my squad. They're sure they 2479 02:20:44,400 --> 02:20:45,800 Speaker 3: are Philadelphia. 2480 02:20:46,160 --> 02:20:48,160 Speaker 2: Charlotte's gonna be a fun lead pass team. They'renna score 2481 02:20:48,200 --> 02:20:49,160 Speaker 2: that a ton of point. I don't know how good 2482 02:20:49,160 --> 02:20:51,600 Speaker 2: they're gonna be, but're gonna be fun. And then uh, 2483 02:20:51,879 --> 02:20:54,720 Speaker 2: you know, then my Lakers with with Lebrono come back 2484 02:20:54,760 --> 02:20:56,680 Speaker 2: at some point, so we'll see how do you like 2485 02:20:56,760 --> 02:21:02,160 Speaker 2: the Lakers and not the Dodgers. So okay, they're yelling 2486 02:21:02,200 --> 02:21:04,480 Speaker 2: at us. My dad's from the Bay Area. I grew 2487 02:21:04,560 --> 02:21:07,080 Speaker 2: up a Giants and forty nine Ers fan. He grew 2488 02:21:07,200 --> 02:21:10,800 Speaker 2: up essentially a Warriors fan, but then like the Celtics 2489 02:21:10,800 --> 02:21:14,200 Speaker 2: because he hates the Lakers. And as a kid, we 2490 02:21:14,280 --> 02:21:17,160 Speaker 2: had season tickets to the Forum to Lakers games, and 2491 02:21:17,280 --> 02:21:20,920 Speaker 2: so I just became a Lakers fan. I'm pretty sure 2492 02:21:21,000 --> 02:21:23,720 Speaker 2: that like, he just didn't care much about NBA like fandom, 2493 02:21:23,760 --> 02:21:25,400 Speaker 2: so he let me be a Lakers fan. I got you, 2494 02:21:25,680 --> 02:21:27,800 Speaker 2: I got you. That makes sense.

I don't 2530 02:23:30,200 --> 02:23:33,039 Speaker 3: like a little warmer, but you know it's it's pretty good. 2531 02:23:33,040 --> 02:23:35,080 Speaker 2: It was chill chilli at the kids game last night. 2532 02:23:35,120 --> 02:23:37,040 Speaker 2: But I keep I don't know about you, but I 2533 02:23:37,160 --> 02:23:41,040 Speaker 2: keep a whole like cold weather set up in the 2534 02:23:41,080 --> 02:23:42,400 Speaker 2: back of I have a truck in the back of 2535 02:23:42,440 --> 02:23:43,920 Speaker 2: my truck, in the truck bed like I have like 2536 02:23:44,040 --> 02:23:47,520 Speaker 2: a blanket, a jacket, gloves, like I have a whole 2537 02:23:47,680 --> 02:23:51,040 Speaker 2: like it's gonna be cold tonight. Here are my options. 2538 02:23:51,080 --> 02:23:54,200 Speaker 2: I just keep in my truck year round. Yeah it's smart. Yeah, 2539 02:23:54,200 --> 02:23:54,640 Speaker 2: it's smart. 2540 02:23:55,920 --> 02:24:00,720 Speaker 3: All right, let's get it started tomorrow one o'clock Bills 2541 02:24:01,640 --> 02:24:04,400 Speaker 3: Bengals and Jets Bungles. 2542 02:24:06,959 --> 02:24:11,680 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, So that game last week Thursday night was 2543 02:24:11,920 --> 02:24:15,120 Speaker 2: very predictable, by the way, then the Steelers if you 2544 02:24:15,160 --> 02:24:18,320 Speaker 2: know anything about Mike Tomlin's history in those spots. So 2545 02:24:19,160 --> 02:24:21,320 Speaker 2: who's hung over for the Jets? We don't know, right, 2546 02:24:21,320 --> 02:24:23,440 Speaker 2: I mean, Aaron Glenn's like being very secret about Oh 2547 02:24:23,520 --> 02:24:27,200 Speaker 2: maybe it's Maybe it's it's Taylor. Maybe it's Fields. I 2548 02:24:27,240 --> 02:24:31,440 Speaker 2: think it's I think it does. I think I think 2549 02:24:32,200 --> 02:24:34,560 Speaker 2: Taylor gives him a chance. Fields gives them no chance. 2550 02:24:34,680 --> 02:24:37,320 Speaker 2: We've seen Fields. He gives them no chance. Taylor gives 2551 02:24:37,360 --> 02:24:39,000 Speaker 2: him some of a chance to actually throw the ball, 2552 02:24:39,000 --> 02:24:41,160 Speaker 2: which is important playing quarterback. Feels to throw the ball 2553 02:24:41,360 --> 02:24:43,440 Speaker 2: pulls the ball way too long, holds the ball way 2554 02:24:43,440 --> 02:24:49,680 Speaker 2: too long. So I I think that if we see Taylor, 2555 02:24:50,959 --> 02:24:56,080 Speaker 2: the Jets are liable to win this game. The Bengals 2556 02:24:56,120 --> 02:25:02,080 Speaker 2: should be favorites, seven point favorites over nobody. Okay, I sure, 2557 02:25:03,360 --> 02:25:06,680 Speaker 2: so I do like the Jets if they're Again, I 2558 02:25:06,720 --> 02:25:08,760 Speaker 2: don't know who's playing this games. I can't give you 2559 02:25:08,800 --> 02:25:10,760 Speaker 2: a great read on what I would pick. 2560 02:25:12,080 --> 02:25:16,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, interesting, Yeah, I don't. I mean, you're right, I'd 2561 02:25:16,840 --> 02:25:23,280 Speaker 3: rather have Missus Fields play quarterback. All right, but Tyrod 2562 02:25:23,320 --> 02:25:26,040 Speaker 3: Taylor is horrible. I mean he's better. 2563 02:25:26,240 --> 02:25:28,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how bad it is. He's better than he's 2564 02:25:28,480 --> 02:25:31,360 Speaker 2: better than the actual quarterback they have now. Yeah. 2565 02:25:31,800 --> 02:25:38,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, Ravens seven and a half against the Bears. Ravens 2566 02:25:38,360 --> 02:25:43,520 Speaker 3: getting healthy, Lamar is back, and they're getting some players 2567 02:25:43,560 --> 02:25:44,480 Speaker 3: back on defense. 2568 02:25:46,680 --> 02:25:50,840 Speaker 2: I like Baltimore. Yeah, think about think about this for 2569 02:25:50,879 --> 02:25:53,039 Speaker 2: a second, right, So the Bears are four and two 2570 02:25:53,640 --> 02:25:56,760 Speaker 2: the one four games right now. The Ravens are one 2571 02:25:56,800 --> 02:26:01,400 Speaker 2: and five, and they're favored by a touchdown because Lamar 2572 02:26:01,560 --> 02:26:03,960 Speaker 2: is gonna play Rokland Smith. I believe it's back like 2573 02:26:04,000 --> 02:26:06,840 Speaker 2: the think about you guys back. So I tend to 2574 02:26:06,879 --> 02:26:08,720 Speaker 2: think this is a spot to take the Ravens. I 2575 02:26:08,760 --> 02:26:11,960 Speaker 2: agree with you, But they and you're desperate, Like they 2576 02:26:12,120 --> 02:26:14,880 Speaker 2: know they need to start winning, and their schedule lightens up, 2577 02:26:14,920 --> 02:26:16,680 Speaker 2: so they get a chance down they can win today 2578 02:26:16,720 --> 02:26:19,320 Speaker 2: to really be a player in the playoff discussion. 2579 02:26:19,840 --> 02:26:27,040 Speaker 3: Right, all right, Miami is at Atlanta. 2580 02:26:29,040 --> 02:26:31,480 Speaker 2: So a couple of things in this game. What is that? 2581 02:26:31,600 --> 02:26:34,320 Speaker 2: Michael Pennex popped up with injury report yesterday. I don't 2582 02:26:34,320 --> 02:26:36,920 Speaker 2: know how serious it is. I don't think it should 2583 02:26:37,160 --> 02:26:40,000 Speaker 2: change as of right now. You feel about this game? Uh, 2584 02:26:41,000 --> 02:26:44,800 Speaker 2: the Dolphins are dead. I mean the more they talk 2585 02:26:44,920 --> 02:26:47,040 Speaker 2: the word, I mean talking about how you can't see 2586 02:26:47,800 --> 02:26:50,720 Speaker 2: I know, like we get it, buddy, Like figure it out. 2587 02:26:50,760 --> 02:26:53,120 Speaker 2: Though they're paying all this money to figure it out. 2588 02:26:53,520 --> 02:27:02,160 Speaker 2: Figure it out. It just it's it's the Falcons are 2589 02:27:02,280 --> 02:27:06,360 Speaker 2: much better at home than on the road, and I 2590 02:27:06,600 --> 02:27:12,320 Speaker 2: think the Falcons will handle business here. I think it 2591 02:27:12,400 --> 02:27:15,800 Speaker 2: might not be close. The Dolphins refuse to fire Mike 2592 02:27:15,840 --> 02:27:17,960 Speaker 2: mc daniel, I get it. This might get him to 2593 02:27:18,000 --> 02:27:19,680 Speaker 2: fire their coach. I think I think it's a rough 2594 02:27:19,720 --> 02:27:26,120 Speaker 2: one for the for the Dolphins. Panics, I guess is questionable. Yeah, 2595 02:27:26,120 --> 02:27:28,440 Speaker 2: I popped up on the report yesterday. It wasn't on 2596 02:27:28,480 --> 02:27:32,680 Speaker 2: the report so yesterday. Yeah, but either way, I mean, 2597 02:27:32,760 --> 02:27:36,800 Speaker 2: you're in good hands. So I'm with you. I forgot 2598 02:27:36,840 --> 02:27:37,600 Speaker 2: Cousins the backup. 2599 02:27:37,680 --> 02:27:41,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you know, I mean, can you imagine 2600 02:27:41,520 --> 02:27:43,480 Speaker 3: Minnesota how much they would love to have Kirk Cousins 2601 02:27:43,600 --> 02:27:43,880 Speaker 3: right now? 2602 02:27:44,400 --> 02:27:47,040 Speaker 2: They could, By the way, the Falcons could probably just 2603 02:27:47,120 --> 02:27:49,600 Speaker 2: run the ball with me and you at quarterback and 2604 02:27:49,600 --> 02:27:51,920 Speaker 2: win this game. I don't know how import that that 2605 02:27:52,000 --> 02:27:56,000 Speaker 2: actually would be in the end. Yeah, he's he's so good. 2606 02:27:56,720 --> 02:27:58,640 Speaker 2: But I'll tell you I loved it. I mean, I 2607 02:27:58,720 --> 02:28:04,080 Speaker 2: love Drake London and a good year. Yeah, They're just 2608 02:28:04,160 --> 02:28:07,720 Speaker 2: a little bit limited offensively with pennx. He just he 2609 02:28:07,959 --> 02:28:10,640 Speaker 2: he is not great at some throws. He's really good 2610 02:28:10,640 --> 02:28:12,080 Speaker 2: at some other throws. I think that does hold him 2611 02:28:12,120 --> 02:28:16,760 Speaker 2: back a little bit. Yeah, and outside the numbers that 2612 02:28:16,840 --> 02:28:19,800 Speaker 2: was in college watching out to the numbers, just not 2613 02:28:19,840 --> 02:28:23,520 Speaker 2: great in the middle of field. He's got a Yeah, 2614 02:28:23,760 --> 02:28:29,039 Speaker 2: and Michael Coup Kyle Pitts wagering on the tight end 2615 02:28:29,160 --> 02:28:31,959 Speaker 2: facing the Dolphins to go over is a good wager. 2616 02:28:32,040 --> 02:28:34,680 Speaker 2: The Dolphins do not guard tight ends. Yeah, lot of 2617 02:28:34,800 --> 02:28:36,560 Speaker 2: leakage going on right there. 2618 02:28:37,440 --> 02:28:43,080 Speaker 3: Uh, Bills and Panthers Buffalo seven and a half over 2619 02:28:43,160 --> 02:28:44,400 Speaker 3: your Carolina Panthers. 2620 02:28:44,840 --> 02:28:47,240 Speaker 2: So I think the Panthers cover this game a couple 2621 02:28:47,280 --> 02:28:50,440 Speaker 2: of reasons. One I don't think they win. One is 2622 02:28:50,520 --> 02:28:53,400 Speaker 2: that Buffalos run defense is poort. Now Milano might play. 2623 02:28:53,400 --> 02:28:54,520 Speaker 2: You might be back of ma Injoy, which makes a 2624 02:28:54,600 --> 02:28:57,360 Speaker 2: huge diffet for that. But Bernard's not there, so that 2625 02:28:57,480 --> 02:29:00,200 Speaker 2: they don't have a full linebacking course. That so a 2626 02:29:00,240 --> 02:29:05,000 Speaker 2: little worrisome, I think. And uh, the Panthers, look, look, 2627 02:29:05,040 --> 02:29:08,440 Speaker 2: they're they're playing better football lately, right They're They're they're 2628 02:29:08,440 --> 02:29:11,320 Speaker 2: playing colimation football. Bryce Suton might not play, but I 2629 02:29:11,360 --> 02:29:13,240 Speaker 2: don't know are they that much worse with with Dalton 2630 02:29:13,320 --> 02:29:15,160 Speaker 2: there We've seen, by the way, the first game of 2631 02:29:15,200 --> 02:29:17,120 Speaker 2: backup plays, by the way, has been good. The second 2632 02:29:17,120 --> 02:29:18,920 Speaker 2: and third game is not. This would be the first game, right, 2633 02:29:19,000 --> 02:29:21,480 Speaker 2: So seven and a half is a lot last thing 2634 02:29:21,520 --> 02:29:24,440 Speaker 2: on this game too. Uh look ahead spot for Buffalo 2635 02:29:24,560 --> 02:29:26,680 Speaker 2: with the Chiefs coming in next week. I know that 2636 02:29:26,760 --> 02:29:29,360 Speaker 2: it's not a thing as much in the NFL. I 2637 02:29:29,520 --> 02:29:33,440 Speaker 2: think it matters in this specific spot. So you know, 2638 02:29:33,720 --> 02:29:35,720 Speaker 2: just get home with a win and move it along 2639 02:29:35,760 --> 02:29:37,800 Speaker 2: and get ready play Kansas City. But does the BUYE 2640 02:29:39,440 --> 02:29:40,720 Speaker 2: does the buy change that? 2641 02:29:42,959 --> 02:29:43,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. 2642 02:29:43,320 --> 02:29:44,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I think actually on a buy you probably 2643 02:29:44,680 --> 02:29:46,160 Speaker 2: think about that a little bit more, don't you like 2644 02:29:46,440 --> 02:29:49,120 Speaker 2: the bill staff probably spent good about of the bye 2645 02:29:49,200 --> 02:29:50,320 Speaker 2: looking at look at the Chiefs. 2646 02:29:51,120 --> 02:29:54,680 Speaker 3: Right, But you're but you're you're in the playing and 2647 02:29:55,720 --> 02:29:57,560 Speaker 3: you're coming off a couple of losses, so. 2648 02:29:59,000 --> 02:30:01,840 Speaker 2: You know you need it. Not like you can look ahead, 2649 02:30:03,280 --> 02:30:05,480 Speaker 2: sorry quickly. There are there are a lot of big 2650 02:30:05,560 --> 02:30:08,160 Speaker 2: numbers this weekend. There are a lot of games about 2651 02:30:08,160 --> 02:30:10,920 Speaker 2: a touchdown someone can't win all like. You're gonna have 2652 02:30:10,959 --> 02:30:12,600 Speaker 2: some upsets. That's just what the NFL is on a 2653 02:30:12,640 --> 02:30:14,000 Speaker 2: weekend like this. So you have to start sort of 2654 02:30:14,040 --> 02:30:16,920 Speaker 2: picking these games you think, you know not last week, 2655 02:30:17,120 --> 02:30:19,080 Speaker 2: I think one two hundred dogs won out right, that 2656 02:30:19,200 --> 02:30:21,440 Speaker 2: was it. That was it. So you're gonna have it's 2657 02:30:21,440 --> 02:30:23,160 Speaker 2: gonna be weird working the NFL, and you sort of 2658 02:30:23,200 --> 02:30:24,520 Speaker 2: have to pick some of the games you think are 2659 02:30:24,560 --> 02:30:26,720 Speaker 2: gonna be weird. And I think the Panthers game is 2660 02:30:26,720 --> 02:30:32,000 Speaker 2: going to be weird. I can see uh Niners and 2661 02:30:32,280 --> 02:30:38,920 Speaker 2: Texans Texans. Oh man, dude, So this one's really interesting. 2662 02:30:40,160 --> 02:30:43,480 Speaker 2: So this is what common sense about this game would 2663 02:30:43,480 --> 02:30:46,200 Speaker 2: tell you, right. The Texans this year have played four 2664 02:30:46,360 --> 02:30:49,959 Speaker 2: real teams. All four of those games, They've not scored 2665 02:30:50,000 --> 02:30:53,040 Speaker 2: more than nineteen points. Their offense has looked bad in 2666 02:30:53,120 --> 02:30:55,280 Speaker 2: every one of those games has not looked good. They 2667 02:30:55,360 --> 02:30:57,600 Speaker 2: played two teams they can score on, the Titans and 2668 02:30:57,720 --> 02:31:00,520 Speaker 2: the and the Ravens Andy score twice. We scored a lot, 2669 02:31:00,560 --> 02:31:01,720 Speaker 2: So you need to score a lot of those games. 2670 02:31:02,240 --> 02:31:04,720 Speaker 2: The Niners we talked about earlier, like playing great ball 2671 02:31:04,800 --> 02:31:09,560 Speaker 2: right now, right, so common I think for like common sense, 2672 02:31:09,680 --> 02:31:12,080 Speaker 2: like wisdom would tell you, like, hey man, back the 2673 02:31:12,160 --> 02:31:16,920 Speaker 2: Niners here right, they're playing good football. I this feels 2674 02:31:16,959 --> 02:31:19,880 Speaker 2: like a spot to be scared of backing the team 2675 02:31:19,959 --> 02:31:23,200 Speaker 2: that should win this game. But I do think it's 2676 02:31:23,320 --> 02:31:26,320 Speaker 2: fair to say this about this one, like why would 2677 02:31:26,360 --> 02:31:28,160 Speaker 2: it be any different for the Texans in this game 2678 02:31:28,280 --> 02:31:30,240 Speaker 2: versus the other games they play? Like that's my that's 2679 02:31:30,280 --> 02:31:30,720 Speaker 2: my point. 2680 02:31:30,879 --> 02:31:33,720 Speaker 3: Well, I want I do think the Niners defense isn't 2681 02:31:33,760 --> 02:31:36,400 Speaker 3: what it is because of the injuries. Well, so the 2682 02:31:36,520 --> 02:31:39,400 Speaker 3: thing and if you just protect now, I know there's 2683 02:31:39,440 --> 02:31:44,720 Speaker 3: no Nico Collins, right, so there's no Nico, but I 2684 02:31:45,760 --> 02:31:46,600 Speaker 3: you know, I got. 2685 02:31:46,480 --> 02:31:49,880 Speaker 2: A feeling that the US did lose the ball. Well 2686 02:31:49,959 --> 02:31:51,800 Speaker 2: they do, obviously they're they're going to be in this game. 2687 02:31:51,879 --> 02:31:53,720 Speaker 2: So here's the thing about this game too, is that 2688 02:31:53,840 --> 02:31:56,840 Speaker 2: they're using defense number one inefficiency and they can get 2689 02:31:56,879 --> 02:31:58,680 Speaker 2: after mac Jones. It could be trouble. So I want 2690 02:31:58,680 --> 02:32:00,320 Speaker 2: to pick the Niners in this one. But it does 2691 02:32:00,400 --> 02:32:03,960 Speaker 2: feel like the classic spot where in the NFL where 2692 02:32:04,040 --> 02:32:06,320 Speaker 2: you're just like, you're like, oh, Texas won that game. 2693 02:32:06,320 --> 02:32:09,040 Speaker 2: They have to they have to win too, So I 2694 02:32:09,440 --> 02:32:12,120 Speaker 2: lean Niners here, but I wouldn't be surprised if I 2695 02:32:12,240 --> 02:32:12,920 Speaker 2: was wrong on this game. 2696 02:32:15,040 --> 02:32:17,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll take I'll take the Texans in this one. 2697 02:32:19,240 --> 02:32:21,600 Speaker 3: All right, Let's take a quick t o won't come 2698 02:32:21,720 --> 02:32:25,039 Speaker 3: back and run through the rest of the card, including 2699 02:32:25,320 --> 02:32:33,199 Speaker 3: Eagles and Giants, Cowboys and Broncos, and the Aaron Rogers 2700 02:32:33,400 --> 02:32:40,800 Speaker 3: bawl Oh, that'd be fun. Jeff and hanging Fox Sports Radio. 2701 02:32:45,480 --> 02:32:52,080 Speaker 3: All right, welcome back Fellas broadcasting for the Fox Sports Studios. 2702 02:32:53,760 --> 02:32:59,160 Speaker 3: Gotta thank Mighty Mark and bri Brianna. Great job guys. 2703 02:32:59,200 --> 02:33:04,119 Speaker 3: As always, we appreciate it our fine production team. Jeff Schwartz, 2704 02:33:04,160 --> 02:33:08,800 Speaker 3: Anthony Gargan. Let's go through our games, by the way 2705 02:33:08,840 --> 02:33:11,400 Speaker 3: we put it at for the brain. I don't know 2706 02:33:11,440 --> 02:33:16,880 Speaker 3: what happened. Uh, all right, buddy, Eagles and Giants. The 2707 02:33:17,440 --> 02:33:21,320 Speaker 3: Eagles are at seven and a half point favorite. 2708 02:33:21,840 --> 02:33:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like the Giants cover this game. Obviously you 2709 02:33:27,800 --> 02:33:31,440 Speaker 2: worry about mentally last week. Right, that's a pretty tough 2710 02:33:31,480 --> 02:33:34,520 Speaker 2: blow for the Giants. But I think Jackson Dart's good 2711 02:33:35,080 --> 02:33:40,680 Speaker 2: and he's now had enough starts to realize that, right, Like, look, 2712 02:33:40,840 --> 02:33:42,720 Speaker 2: will you have rookie mistakes? Of course, do a better 2713 02:33:42,760 --> 02:33:44,840 Speaker 2: O reception like he did, does some some things that 2714 02:33:45,000 --> 02:33:47,080 Speaker 2: aren't great, But I think you agree on that. Like 2715 02:33:47,200 --> 02:33:50,039 Speaker 2: he's he seems like legitimately, like he belongs. 2716 02:33:49,720 --> 02:33:52,560 Speaker 3: To you know, I love him. I was always the 2717 02:33:52,640 --> 02:33:54,760 Speaker 3: anti Russell Wilson. I'm like, I don't know what you're 2718 02:33:54,800 --> 02:33:56,920 Speaker 3: waiting for. Just start Dart. 2719 02:33:57,120 --> 02:33:59,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we said that of beginning to see 2720 02:34:00,520 --> 02:34:03,280 Speaker 2: and so I'm so I think that's important to note here. 2721 02:34:03,640 --> 02:34:08,400 Speaker 2: I think Dart is is legitimately good, and I think that, 2722 02:34:08,840 --> 02:34:12,080 Speaker 2: you know, the Giants defensive line is is one of 2723 02:34:12,120 --> 02:34:14,200 Speaker 2: the best in the NFL, and they control these games. 2724 02:34:15,040 --> 02:34:18,560 Speaker 2: And with the way that Hurts played last week, I 2725 02:34:18,560 --> 02:34:21,160 Speaker 2: don't expect that again. No. A. J. Brown talk about 2726 02:34:21,560 --> 02:34:23,520 Speaker 2: the innability run the football for the Eagles this year. 2727 02:34:23,879 --> 02:34:25,959 Speaker 2: I think it's too many points. I think Philly wins. 2728 02:34:26,480 --> 02:34:28,440 Speaker 2: I mean seven half is too many points, right? 2729 02:34:29,440 --> 02:34:32,960 Speaker 3: New England and Cleveland, New England seven and a half 2730 02:34:33,040 --> 02:34:33,760 Speaker 3: over the Browns. 2731 02:34:34,320 --> 02:34:37,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, no offense to these teams. I will not be 2732 02:34:37,360 --> 02:34:42,320 Speaker 2: watching this game. I mean I probably New England, but 2733 02:34:42,480 --> 02:34:46,280 Speaker 2: who knows.

By the way, I 2751 02:35:43,840 --> 02:35:45,960 Speaker 2: wasn't even played yet for some reason, but I do 2752 02:35:46,040 --> 02:35:51,160 Speaker 2: think that in this spot, New Orleans covering would be 2753 02:35:51,200 --> 02:35:53,000 Speaker 2: the player. Nothing by pass on this game. 2754 02:35:53,840 --> 02:36:00,000 Speaker 3: It's good. That's the sharp spot. Ye alright, Titans and Cults, buddy. 2755 02:36:01,280 --> 02:36:07,360 Speaker 2: The number just just I just bet the Colts team 2756 02:36:07,400 --> 02:36:11,960 Speaker 2: to all over whatever it is. Tennessee feels dead, the 2757 02:36:12,680 --> 02:36:14,960 Speaker 2: Colts rolling everyone o. The Colts against the NFL Man, 2758 02:36:15,040 --> 02:36:17,760 Speaker 2: Colt's gonna have a down week, but I I don't know, 2759 02:36:17,840 --> 02:36:20,560 Speaker 2: it feels like it's It would be difficult to think 2760 02:36:20,600 --> 02:36:21,240 Speaker 2: that that's the case. 2761 02:36:22,280 --> 02:36:26,880 Speaker 3: So great game in Denver the Cowboys and the Broncos. 2762 02:36:27,720 --> 02:36:31,320 Speaker 3: This would be interesting because the Broncos had the miracle 2763 02:36:31,360 --> 02:36:34,960 Speaker 3: cutback last week. The Cowboys are our role, would play 2764 02:36:35,000 --> 02:36:41,600 Speaker 3: good football offensively. The Broncos have a great secondary. What 2765 02:36:41,800 --> 02:36:49,080 Speaker 3: games in this game. I I'm out on the Broncos. 2766 02:36:51,400 --> 02:36:57,680 Speaker 2: I just think that they don't call pleasant look like 2767 02:36:57,720 --> 02:37:04,480 Speaker 2: they trust Bonnicks and how can I how can I trust? 2768 02:37:06,200 --> 02:37:06,360 Speaker 3: Oh? 2769 02:37:06,840 --> 02:37:09,200 Speaker 2: By the way, do we have a breaking news sounder? 2770 02:37:09,240 --> 02:37:13,039 Speaker 2: Do we have like a little breaking news sounder Kirk 2771 02:37:13,080 --> 02:37:16,440 Speaker 2: Cousins expected to start for the Falcons this weekend.

Uh so, 2781 02:37:43,320 --> 02:37:47,200 Speaker 2: Uh Okay, the the Broncos call pust they're afraid of 2782 02:37:47,240 --> 02:37:49,200 Speaker 2: bon Nicks, and I just I hate that, and so 2783 02:37:49,280 --> 02:37:51,440 Speaker 2: I like, I think the Cowboys will cover this game. 2784 02:37:52,879 --> 02:37:58,240 Speaker 3: Uh all right, I would agree that Rogers Bowl, Packers 2785 02:37:58,720 --> 02:38:00,520 Speaker 3: and Steelers. 2786 02:38:01,120 --> 02:38:05,119 Speaker 2: Favorite fast favorite WAGERA favorite wager of the week, Pittsburgh Steelers. 2787 02:38:05,680 --> 02:38:07,480 Speaker 2: Can I can I tell you why? Well, I'm gonna 2788 02:38:07,480 --> 02:38:08,840 Speaker 2: tell you why. I'm not gonna I'm not. I'm gonna 2789 02:38:08,840 --> 02:38:10,960 Speaker 2: tell you what. So I've bet on the bank on 2790 02:38:11,040 --> 02:38:13,240 Speaker 2: the Bengals to beat the beat the covering to Seers 2791 02:38:13,240 --> 02:38:15,520 Speaker 2: on those that football worst spot, worst spot for Mike 2792 02:38:15,560 --> 02:38:20,720 Speaker 2: Tomant ever, the best spot in the history of wagering 2793 02:38:20,800 --> 02:38:23,400 Speaker 2: on a coach is Mike Tomans as a hole underdog, 2794 02:38:23,440 --> 02:38:27,040 Speaker 2: You're ready. Thomas Willis as a home underdog thirty two 2795 02:38:27,120 --> 02:38:31,400 Speaker 2: games as a head coach, twenty two seven and three 2796 02:38:31,400 --> 02:38:34,520 Speaker 2: against the spread in those games, Wow, I don't believe 2797 02:38:34,520 --> 02:38:36,959 Speaker 2: in the Packers and talking about earlier. They've had four 2798 02:38:37,000 --> 02:38:39,960 Speaker 2: weeks of very mediocre football. Give me the Steelers in 2799 02:38:40,000 --> 02:38:44,480 Speaker 2: this game. I think they win and cover well. Is 2800 02:38:44,520 --> 02:38:48,360 Speaker 2: he the too obvious man? The Rogers narrative I'm not 2801 02:38:48,400 --> 02:38:50,359 Speaker 2: betting on the game because of Rogers? Is some payback? 2802 02:38:50,400 --> 02:38:52,760 Speaker 2: I think that I don't trust the Packers. They've been 2803 02:38:52,959 --> 02:38:55,920 Speaker 2: very lackluster for for a month now. Right lost the 2804 02:38:55,959 --> 02:38:59,720 Speaker 2: Browns tie against the Packers last week's game, like I 2805 02:38:59,800 --> 02:39:01,720 Speaker 2: need come back. We're never aad in that game till 2806 02:39:01,920 --> 02:39:05,119 Speaker 2: the last two minutes of the game. I like Pittsburgh 2807 02:39:05,120 --> 02:39:08,640 Speaker 2: and oft an embarrassing loss to cover it home. Oh. 2808 02:39:12,320 --> 02:39:13,760 Speaker 2: I like the Packers. I do. 2809 02:39:13,959 --> 02:39:16,520 Speaker 3: I like the Packers more than you do. I think 2810 02:39:16,560 --> 02:39:23,599 Speaker 3: they're a sleeping giant. Green Bay's a better team. Pittsburgh's 2811 02:39:23,600 --> 02:39:27,440 Speaker 3: defense is not good. The Packers' offense hasn't been great. 2812 02:39:27,440 --> 02:39:28,760 Speaker 3: Either I don't know, I don't know, tell you man, 2813 02:39:31,440 --> 02:39:32,080 Speaker 3: that's what I think. 2814 02:39:32,160 --> 02:39:33,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. 2815 02:39:33,959 --> 02:39:38,320 Speaker 3: And then Monday night is the big Chiefs in Washington, 2816 02:39:38,640 --> 02:39:39,280 Speaker 3: huge number. 2817 02:39:39,640 --> 02:39:44,560 Speaker 2: Yeah that Washington has no Daniels, right, Mari. I would 2818 02:39:44,600 --> 02:39:46,959 Speaker 2: just take like the Chiefs team total over or something. 2819 02:39:47,000 --> 02:39:48,680 Speaker 2: I don't know.
