8
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: joy of my day is being able to look at

9
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: Bob Scucci in the eyes as his intro music is played.

10
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: I'm fairly certain he's tearing up a little bit. No,

11
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: that's just you know, it's hot in here, so like

12
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: glasses again, you need some windows, some window wipers for

13
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: your glasses. Bob Scucci is live and in person in

00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: we've upgraded I could yeah from the last time I

00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: was here. This is great, really nice. And you get

18
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: to look at the hipster mats to meet your guys

19
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: in person the podcast. It's very exciting. I'm glad you're

20
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: here in New York. I'm sorry that it's too cold

21
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: for you. Man I know, how do people live in this?

22
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: It's not right. Today is like a decent day, decent

23
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: and the west today, Yeah, but it's the wind. It's

24
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: just I took too long walks today. Man. You can't

25
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: sit out in the courtyard smoking cigars. You do not

26
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: have that option here. You got to be indoors. You

27
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: will not be outside again for six months if you

28
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: live in New York. I was, you know, I was

29
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 1: waiting for you outside the building. I felt like ends

30
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: out of the Baker from the Godfather. He's waiting outside

31
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: the hospital. Put the collar up, put your hands in

32
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: your pockets, like you have a gun. Do you wanna

33
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: do you wanna tell people why you were waiting outside

34
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: instead of coming up to the eleventh floor. Man, Because

35
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: I hate elevators? What is that about? You get stuck

36
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: in one of those? Have you been stuck in elevate?

37
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: Been stuck in an elevator when a long time ago

38
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: in San Francisco and it was just had to be

39
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: the smallest elevator. You couldn't you couldn't sit down in it.

40
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: It was one of those old hotels, those boutique hotels,

41
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: and it fits maybe three people standing, and it just

42
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,119
Speaker 1: it got got stuck and I'm and then it got

43
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: dark and just a horrible experience. How long were you

44
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: in there? It felt like days it was. It was

45
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: probably about maybe thirty minutes. Sorry for you. Yeah, so

46
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 1: when you told me you're on the eleventh floor, yeah,

47
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: you just responded, oh ship. And these elevators aren't so big,

48
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 1: by the way. These elevators are small and ancient. Hey,

49
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: last week was Thanksgiving, so you got you know, destroyed

50
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving Day because all the favorites covered. Uh Phil

51
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: and Tiger was the next day. And the numbers that

52
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: Bleacher Report is talking about, I feel like really big

53
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: numbers they're talking about, you know, you know huge. I

54
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: think they said something like, I don't know sto streams

55
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: at one point for the match, Um, what kind of

56
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: activity did you see? Betting activity or or just interest

57
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: in it? Both? Yeah, the I mean the interest was tremendous.

58
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: I mean everybody was kind of waiting for it, and

59
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: you know they picked you know, the day after Thanksgiving,

60
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: which is a great spot, great time for it, kind

61
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: of in between a lot of the other action. But

62
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 1: as you know, the problem with the feed created an issue.

63
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: You know, we knew right away we weren't getting the

64
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: feed when we just see the black screen, and you know,

65
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: we're calling the distributors and everything. So people were getting anxious,

66
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,799
Speaker 1: and some people were kind of leaving the casinos because

67
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: they wanted to see it. They wanted to see the

68
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,119
Speaker 1: beginning of it. They wanted to see it from the start.

69
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: They yeah, they didn't want to wait and miss something

70
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: good at the beginning. So they all started scrambling to

71
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: find somewhere where they knew that it would be on.

72
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: And of course we got it up in time for

73
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: the start of it, but a lot of people didn't

74
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 1: didn't know that. But on the wagering side, remember it

75
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 1: was up for a long time, so we we got

76
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: quite a bit of uh of action on it, you know,

77
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: more than any other kind of similar type of UH.

78
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: I mean the last time there was something of this

79
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,799
Speaker 1: magnitude with Tiger, just one on one with the Sergio Garcia.

80
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: We we drew quite a bit on that one, too,

81
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: but but this one was bigger. Um. Well, we'll see

82
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: the golf numbers, you know, the way that the gaming

83
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: numbers in the VET are broken out. Um, we could

84
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: kind of decipher and segment out that other category because

85
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: they don't list it in just golf. Golf is part

86
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: of you know, tennis and miscellaneous. So we'll see if

87
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: there's a spike in November for that other category and

88
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 1: just how much, and then we can kind of deduce

89
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 1: how much was bet on it. Why don't they break

90
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: out NFL from college football? Because it's how do you

91
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: do it? Has always been the question, like you better

92
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: Let's say you bet a hundred dollar parlay and you've

93
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,919
Speaker 1: got an NFL team, college team, and let's say a

94
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: third team NHL. Is it thirty three dollars on each?

95
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: Is it a hundred on the first team, a hundred

96
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: on the last team. It's it's really difficult, and and

97
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: a lot of the systems that people use are are

98
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: all different, so you're getting different reporting from property to

99
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: property based on what kind of platform they have. UM.

100
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: I feel like this past weekend in the NFL things

101
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: started to turn themselves back into normalcy. You saw the

102
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: Bills win as big dogs, You saw the Broncos win,

103
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: you saw, um what else happened? Favorites covered some big

104
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: double digit favorites, So that covered the Chargers Chargers Ravens

105
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 1: against the Raiders, the three big, biggest points, breads, the

106
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 1: double digit favorites all covered. The only saving grace for

107
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:47,679
Speaker 1: us really two games the Broncos, uh covering winning against

108
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 1: the Steelers, and uh the Dolphins covered the Dolphins because

109
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. That would have been better if they if

110
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: they won the game outright for us, because just to

111
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: kill some teaser. Has been great weekend for UCE. I mean,

112
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: it could have been a lot worse, particularly how it

113
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: let up with if if not for the brilliant bookmaking

114
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: you did. And I keep saying that, you know, some

115
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: of our best bookmaking. We lose some of the best

116
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: editing I've ever done. We're on the stories where we

117
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: got sued, and like, you really gotta look at it

118
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: from the perspective of we could have been sued for

119
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: so much more. You know, so if I hadn't been

120
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: on my editing game that day, right, Okay, you know

121
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: I heard it many times at the gaming I'm here

122
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: for the for the ice Sports Betting Conference, and I

123
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: heard all the bookmakers there. Tomorrow I'm speaking twice. Okay,

124
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: I'll try to look for you there. I'll be in

125
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: the green room. I'm not sure if you can get

126
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: in there. Yeah, make sure you get plenty of pancake.

127
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: You know they're taking pictures. Speaking twice, okay. I saw

128
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: there were so many bookmakers, both from Europe, Nevada, Jersey,

129
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: and all saying the same thing that a lot of

130
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: the loss is out of your control, but it doesn't

131
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: mean it's bad bookmaking. So they didn't go quite as

132
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: far as I did, saying that sometimes it's your best

133
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: bookmaking when you lose. But I wanted, I wanted to

134
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: get up on on stage and just kind of throw

135
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: that one in, and I, well, you know, I'm speaking

136
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: twice tomorrow, and so I feel like I'm going to

137
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: have the opportunity at some point to reference that losses

138
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: could be worse if bookmakers like Bob Scucci weren't so

139
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: good at their job. Make sure you attribute. You know,

140
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: that's something that journalists learned, right, You always have attribute, Okay,

141
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 1: I you know, I give attribution words to I don't

142
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: need to play jarized stuff, especially gems like that. Um

143
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: speaking of bookmaking, I feel like the New Orleans Saints

144
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: as seven or seven and a half point dogs at

145
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: home or on the road against the Cowboys. I immediately

146
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: saw that number, and as much as I hate betting

147
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: on the Cowboys. I saw that and thought, oh boy,

148
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a tough decision. Well, this feels

149
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: like the last four times that the Saints played. It's

150
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: like deja vu all over again. How many times do

151
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: we put up a gigantic number Saints on the road

152
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: and and I feel that the right play is the

153
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: home dog, and they just keep covering and covering and covering.

154
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,719
Speaker 1: Don't cover by much. I mean the Falcons game, I

155
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: mean they were right there within striking distance, But every

156
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: week it's it's the same thing with the Saints. So, uh,

157
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,719
Speaker 1: apparently we haven't lost enough on the Saints, so we're

158
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: gonna gonna number again. But I mean we we So

159
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: we put up behind number eight and a half, they

160
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: right away they take the eight and a half. It's

161
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: down seven and a half. And we know it's the

162
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 1: same pattern that you know the public is gonna be

163
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: on the Saints at about a ten to one clip

164
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: and the sharp guys will take the other side. But

165
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: you know, how much do you take on? So if

166
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,439
Speaker 1: I go back, if I go back to eight eight

167
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 1: and a half, how much do I take on the Cowboys?

168
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: And then finally have the cow, you know, the dog

169
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: cover and then give away what would have been a

170
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: good win. So we're not gonna do that. We're gonna

171
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna write it out. And just the other thing

172
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about in one of the two

173
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: times I speak at the conference tomorrow is um that bookmakers,

174
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: they're betters like you don't necessarily want to be even

175
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 1: like you want to have a little bit of it.

176
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: You want to have some action. No, well, first of all,

177
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: it's a myth to have perfect two way action. You'll

178
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: never get it. It's impossible. Especially the part that that

179
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: they always miss when they talk about two way action

180
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: is two way action at the same number. It's no good.

181
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: If you get, you know, a ton of money at

182
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: minus seven and a half and a ton of money

183
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: at plus eight and a half and have it land

184
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: on eight, what good is your two way action? But

185
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 1: but you don't even want to try and get two

186
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: way action because the best that you're gonna do is

187
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: win a very small margin. And that's not the goal

188
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: of the bookmaker. You know that the goal is to

189
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: win as much as you can and and increase those margins.

190
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: You know you're not gonna you're not gonna do it

191
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: trying to get two way action on every game. My

192
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,839
Speaker 1: goal is a better you think would be to win

193
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: as much as I can. It's not. It's to have

194
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: as much fun as I can. Well, that's that's rare

195
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 1: among a lot, especially among the professional betters. You don't

196
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: see too many professional betters just like laughing it up

197
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: and saying, I'm just having I'm just Yeah, I win

198
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 1: some money, but I'm here for the drinks and the atmosphere. Yeah,

199
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: doesn't like to spend the afternoon inhaling at a sports book. Yeah,

200
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: it's the best, it really is. Please give me that

201
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: well vodka and the second hand smoke and a side

202
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: of a nickel on the bears. Yeah that sounds like

203
00:11:54,679 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 1: that our clientele. Yeah, that's so funny. That's so funny. Um. Alright,

204
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: So the wise guys were taking the Cowboys when it

205
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: was a big number. They're not taking it when it's

206
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: a smaller number. And you're gonna end up having to

207
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 1: eat something on Sunday when this line goes back up. Yeah,

208
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 1: but we'll I guarantee you we'll be the first one

209
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: to go up. I mean, we'll first one to go

210
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: to eight. First one to go to another because you're scared,

211
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: because we're quick to react aggressive like a cat. Like

212
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,439
Speaker 1: a cat. That's what I think about when I think

213
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: of you, cat like reflexes. All right, well, here's an

214
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 1: interesting one. Baltimore Ravens. They opened his two and a

215
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: half point favorites. The Atlanta Falcons are now one point favorites.

216
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,839
Speaker 1: A lot of money coming in on Atlanta. I liked

217
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: Atlanta in this game. I liked Atlanta. Um. I hate

218
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: saying because I hate the Falcons. Hate it. Yeah, what

219
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: am I gonna do here? I hate the Falcons too

220
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: after last week and they couldn't Oh my god, yeah,

221
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 1: so frustrating. I hate the Falcons. I mean this is

222
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 1: the spot form. I mean at home, they should just

223
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: win this game and getting you know, getting points. I

224
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: could see the value. But uh, look at look at

225
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: the Ravens numbers each week increasing. Uh you know, the

226
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: the lines I'm talking about, the lines are getting bigger

227
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: and bigger when the rains the Ravens are playing. Um,

228
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: you look back at the Ravens Saints game and and

229
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: and how credible does that game look? Where it was

230
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: only a one point uh margin where they came up short. Um, so,

231
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: so now looking back at how good the Saints are,

232
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: that that really was a quality to loss. Uh and uh,

233
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: you know with Lamar Jackson, the guys like Ezekiel Elliott,

234
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 1: you know he's got about the same amount of USh

235
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: is in Yark just you look at his stats. So

236
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: it's like having having an extra thread out there how

237
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: far back when you look. So you can look now

238
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,719
Speaker 1: and say the Ravens were a quality loss, but at

239
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: the time of the Saints were a quality loss. At

240
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,839
Speaker 1: the time, we were also not necessarily given the Saints

241
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: a ton of credit for that win because if you remember,

242
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: we really thought that the Ravens was was a play

243
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: that day at home getting ye. So, but every week

244
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: I mean that the Saints they keep like, like I said,

245
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: we're not We're not going to learn our lesson. We're

246
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: going to put up another number here that the public

247
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: is gonna lay and just just ride it out from

248
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 1: here on out. You didn't really answer my question, how

249
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: far back are we gonna look for every team or

250
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: just for the generally, like, what's your Well, if you

251
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: look at like I'm not going to go back to

252
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: Week one Saints, right, the Saints lost to the Bucks

253
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: in week one. You're not looking at week one and

254
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: being like, well, you know what, I think the Box

255
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: are better than we thought. Like the Saints were a

256
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: different team. I'm looking at key games, key games were

257
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: both teams feel I mean like where you feel like

258
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: this is a key game in the season. You look

259
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: to the schedule and there's just certain games where you're

260
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: looking for those key matchups, like like Rams and Chiefs.

261
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: You're looking for those games. Uh so, you know we're

262
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: not going to go back to necessarily to to week

263
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: one or two. No one gives the Bucks credit at

264
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: this point for beating the Saints. No, no, and and

265
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: and the Texans. I mean, we're not going to look

266
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: back to how they I mean they started oh in three, right,

267
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: that's your team. I love this team. I love this team.

268
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: I think the biggest problem with this team is that

269
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson holds the ball for way too long in

270
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: the pockets to learn them and that is going to

271
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: be a fatal flaw. Like you know, you can always tell,

272
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: like when teams losing the playoffs, they lose for the

273
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: things that sort of made them snake bit throughout the year.

274
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: And you watch that game last night and so many

275
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: times just on Watson was holding the ball for too long,

276
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: and like they're really talented teams, so to get away

277
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: with it. But um, you know, I also say, like

278
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: I look at that a f C conference right now,

279
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: and obviously the Patriots are great, the Chiefs are great.

280
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: But I don't know that the Steelers are any better

281
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: than the Texans. Like I think the Texans might be

282
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: the third best team in the conference. Yeah, you know,

283
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: people kind of look to their their schedule and say, okay,

284
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: well they didn't play anybody. But when you have that

285
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: many wins, eight wins in a row, you kid in

286
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: the NFL, I don't care who you're playing, that tells

287
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: you it's a good team. It's a discipline team. They're

288
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: great defense, and the key is the defense. Those guys

289
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:46,239
Speaker 1: stay healthy. Clowney J. J. Watt, those guys stay healthy. Merciless.

290
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 1: You know what he is? What is He's im merciless? Merciless?

291
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: Really is he? Why are you such a hack? I

292
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: knew where you were going. I wasn't gonna go there,

293
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: go there. Yeah, I wouldn't do that is such a cliche. Alright,

294
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: I don't know. I expected just to walk away from

295
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 1: the whole conversation. I think you're gonna come back. Um,

296
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: all right, Arizona is a fourteen point dog to the

297
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: reeling Green Bay Packers. This Cardinals team is strange because

298
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: there was a stint in the middle of the year

299
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,239
Speaker 1: when Josh Rosen was taking over Sam Bradford, and then

300
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: the first couple of games after where it looked like

301
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: he can move the ball, and then all of a

302
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: sudden they seem to have forgotten what they were doing

303
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: and they can't do anything. But the Packers are bad,

304
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,479
Speaker 1: and so what do I do with a fourteen point spread?

305
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 1: I mean, as a hand as a professional handicapper, you're

306
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: supposed to take it, but you know it hasn't been

307
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: really panning out the last a few weeks, so don't

308
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 1: want to do that. Some of the bad teams you

309
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: just have to at one point stay away from. So

310
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 1: you look back to, you know, the the year of

311
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: the Browns just law to every game and we kept saying,

312
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 1: you know, you have to keep playing them. This is

313
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: they're getting ten points and they're at home. You have

314
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: to play them. And they're getting fourteen at home and

315
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,959
Speaker 1: you have to play them, and they're so you have

316
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,360
Speaker 1: to stay with those things, as painful as it as

317
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 1: it is as a professional handicapper, but you know it

318
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 1: is painful. I mean, look at the Raiders. You look

319
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: at them, and you say, how can I keep betting

320
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 1: these teams? And I don't care how many points I'm

321
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: I'm getting? But but yeah, this is talk about an

322
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: inflated line. It's deliberately inflated, knowing that the casual fan

323
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: is just gonna lay big points. That's it's a bet

324
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: against Arizona. It's not necessarily saying that the Packers are invincible.

325
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: It's just that the Cardinals are that bad. So we're

326
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: gonna make this line incredibly high. That the line really

327
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: shouldn't be this high. I'm not gonna bet it. Well,

328
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: we're gonna We're okay, don't like it? Don't like it?

329
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: Also like the Rams ten point favorites on the road

330
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 1: against the Lions. Yeah, and and here's a Rams team

331
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: that conversely, you know, you look at how the Saints

332
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: keep covering, covering covering. The Rams haven't been real strong

333
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: covering a lot of these spreads. And obviously the record

334
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: just straight up is is great. But I mean, these

335
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: big numbers is not in their wheelhouse. I mean they're

336
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 1: not running and because the defense and we talked about it,

337
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: they're letting team score points. So you know, Detroit, I

338
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: think Detroit scores scores a ton of points on them.

339
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 1: So I might bet this game. This might be one. Huh. Oh, boy,

340
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: Chad is making a bet. Oh. I get to see

341
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: what you actually do here. I'm covering them. Say now,

342
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 1: I'm in the studio. I get to see the secret.

343
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,439
Speaker 1: All right, you cannot see what I'm doing. I'm taking

344
00:19:54,480 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: my steam filled glasses and just covering them un barely

345
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 1: hot hair, is it not? Man, I don't know what

346
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: you mean that my ears are hot? Then I'm not

347
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: even wearing headphones. They turning red. Mmm. I know how

348
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 1: you guys deal with it. The freezing outside, it's hot inside.

349
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: Mines plus ten minus one, fifteen. At one particular book

350
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 1: I'm looking at, yeah, came down, came down, and probably

351
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: it was eleven at one point. Yeah yeah, yeah, you

352
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: missed a bad number there, and then you missed missed

353
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,919
Speaker 1: the best of the number. Well, let me check another spot,

354
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: see what's happening there. But I think my point is

355
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: you kind of in the middle of that conversation where

356
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: I first looked at it and thought of Matt Patricia.

357
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: Then you made me reconsider my position go against that

358
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: defense that pours defense. It's not a great defense, No,

359
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: it's you know, I thought it was a lot better

360
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,360
Speaker 1: than what it turned out to be. They have nobody

361
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: like Aaron Donald is the only guy who can do

362
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 1: anything on that defensive line. Marcus Peters is awful disappointment

363
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: all the way around. Um hold on, I'm looking at

364
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: one more place right now, and I'm going to check

365
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: in with the guys getting the same number. Okay, just

366
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: checking in. It's not really professional to do that, scooch.

367
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: All right, I'm not making a bet right now. Let's

368
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: take it back. Reverse it. You know Hamilton's that, Just

369
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 1: reverse it, go from helpless and to satisfied. Have you

370
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 1: guys seen Hamilton's rewind? Come on, I am not going

371
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: to allegedly make a bet. That's the sound that it makes.

372
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,360
Speaker 1: Uh Denver minus four and a half half at Cincinnati?

373
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: Is Andy Dalton playing? Are you comfortable posting a line

374
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: in this game right now? They don't. That's why I'm

375
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: going to call the Remember I'm not in the hub

376
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,439
Speaker 1: right now now, So you're calling right now. I'll do

377
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: play by play right now. Scooches with me in the studio.

378
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: He has multiple cell phones and he's asking what do

379
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: we got in the Bengals. He's talking to his office

380
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 1: and and uh, what it is Dalton playing? Or what

381
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: do we have? Yes, the talk was playing. He's getting

382
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 1: an answer. He's sipping his coffee, he's smiling. This is

383
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: a big mike. Yeah, it's commenting in the mic. Okay,

384
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: so that's yeah, yeah, we got we got him out,

385
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 1: got him out. So you got him out and you

386
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: got the Bengals at plus four and a half, which

387
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: means to me, like there's like minimal impact on Andy

388
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: Dalton being out. They might have been three and a

389
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: half pretty much. So like all this to me, Thanks, Kevin,

390
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: stay in the line, standing the line, Kevin, don't hang up.

391
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 1: We need you, We need some action, Kevin. Um, here's

392
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: what this game is saying to me. No, Andy Dalton,

393
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: huge action disability, like you get the Is that a huge,

394
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 1: huge Ackson? It's like huge Ackson as I suspected for

395
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: the Browns game. Being on the sideline for the Bengals

396
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: game should downgrade the Bengals. Um and then Hugh Jackson

397
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: being on the side for the Bengals in the Browns

398
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: game being on the side for the Broncos game. I

399
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: think the cost of huge action should be three points.

400
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: We went the other way, Like, if this game was

401
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: gonna be maybe Bengals minus one and a half, now

402
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 1: it's minus four and a half without Dalton, should probably

403
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: be seven and a half with Hugh Jackson. Wow, that's

404
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: that's quite the Can you imagine, Like the guy couldn't

405
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: even like, yeah, that was your big that was your

406
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 1: big angle last week, didn't bet it, which was stupid.

407
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,120
Speaker 1: We should have a section on just regrets. Yeah, oh

408
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 1: that'd be good. Yeah, yeah, Like I have a lot

409
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 1: of regrets in my life. You know, girl in high school,

410
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: you know, things could have gone differently, didn't work out. Yeah,

411
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: I've been lucky in that regard the girl in high

412
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:38,199
Speaker 1: school not betting the Browns. That's that's like, you know

413
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:43,439
Speaker 1: the two things. Yeah, yeah, I agree. But now in

414
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: this case, you want to go higher than four and

415
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: a half, that's that's a little too much. Team stinks, stinkola. Yeah,

416
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: like you can put this team, you can take half

417
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 1: the players off the field for the Broncos. I might

418
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: actually go let me see. Hold on, we're calling Kevin, Kevin,

419
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: he's going to five? What what what's the what's the

420
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 1: ticket count on it? Yeah? Wow? Are there you once

421
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: you go to five? Stand in the line, Kevin Stanley. Okay,

422
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: but he said, we're not getting huge Action on the game. Huh,

423
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: I got no, I got I got I got it.

424
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: Things are the jokes are so much funnier when you

425
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: have to explain them are In case everybody listening missed it,

426
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 1: Scoot said we're not getting huge Jackson on the game,

427
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: but he disguised it as huge action, little double tondrepressive,

428
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,400
Speaker 1: But I got it. I'm going to pass on this one.

429
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: I don't think I can put money on Jeff Friscoll.

430
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 1: That's the Bengals backup quarterback. Uh Houston minus five and

431
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 1: a half against Cleveland. Cleveland is getting a little bit

432
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: too much credit for beating the Bengals. This game should

433
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 1: be seven. You get Kevin on the phone, are we

434
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: make this? You change this number? Yeah? We're When I

435
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: hang on one second, Kevin, what do we at on on? Houston?

436
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: Why don't you put Kevin on speaker? Yeah? Yeah, I

437
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: might put you on speaker here in a minute. But

438
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: maybe Kevin should just be in the podcast. I think

439
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:39,439
Speaker 1: we're going all right. I don't need you to be

440
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 1: a mouthpiece. Well I'm not. I can't see how many

441
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: I can't see how many tickets we have on the game.

442
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 1: From Kevin on speaker phone, don't light he said he

443
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 1: doesn't want to be on the on the show. He's

444
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: doing other things. He's multi tasking. Don't be a coward. Okay,

445
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: you don't want to be on the show, do you? Oh?

446
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: I don't know about Kevin. Just be on the show.

447
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: No you don't. Yeah, all right, we embarrass him every week. Okay,

448
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 1: so you're moving the game. What are you moving to to?

449
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: I wish you hadn't done that because now other books

450
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 1: might move it. And I kind of want to bet

451
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: Houston at minus five, and it's the risk you run.

452
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: You know, you're a player. Here's the thing. Here's the

453
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: thing right now, Um that game. Nobody's here in the

454
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: podcast yet, although you moved it, that's true. That's hold on,

455
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: hold on, I can't find that game. Where's that game?

456
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: I mean, we just talked about Houston. We talked about

457
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: how good they are and I agree, and I agree

458
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 1: with you. They are pretty good. Yeah, they're really good.

459
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 1: I think they're Like, although the flip side does that

460
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 1: mean why can't I find this game? I don't know.

461
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. Um the flip side is, are they

462
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 1: overvalued Houston? I don't think so. I like, like we said,

463
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: I think they're not getting probably enough credit because of

464
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 1: the strength of schedule, of the lack of strength of

465
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 1: their their schedule. But you remember how high everyone was

466
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: on this team before Deshaun Watson got hurt last year,

467
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,640
Speaker 1: and it's as high as they were on them then

468
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 1: they're they're not quite as high on them anymore. But

469
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: that's the same team. That's the team that they thought.

470
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,360
Speaker 1: That's what I mean. They're better than that, and yet

471
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: people just forgot how much they were supporting them last year. So,

472
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: uh no, I think, by the way, you were late

473
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: getting a six. It's six all over town right now.

474
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: When we went to six and a half, shut up, Kevin,

475
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 1: Kevin did we go to six and a half? Six

476
00:28:53,960 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: and a half? All right? Now? It's a want it

477
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: in here? He just moved at a full point. Look

478
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: at that. You know what we do here? We influence

479
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: people do you think they think that the wise guys

480
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: will take it at six and a half? I'll find

481
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: out in a minute. I'll check back with you think

482
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: there'll be a flood. Why don't you just tell Kevin

483
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: if like something happens, just yell, yeah, hey if we

484
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: if we get any bets on Cleveland, let me know

485
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: is the phone are the phone's lighting up yet? Not yet?

486
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: All right? Thanks? Kevin doesn't like you? Kevin's getting piste. Yeah,

487
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 1: he is not a show pony to be tried it

488
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: out for your amusement. Um, okay, Buffalo at Miami Dolphins

489
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: minus five? What do you do with this Buffalo team?

490
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 1: That's the thing. I think you bet against him this

491
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: weekend because who they go back and forth? Because I

492
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 1: think they go back and forth, different game on the road, Tanna,

493
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 1: I had a really good game last week. Um, I

494
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 1: think Dolphins is anything less than a touchdown is probably

495
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: the play. Well, he is less than a touchdown, So

496
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. Yeah, I think we're gonna get

497
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: a lot of that. I'm I'm gonna gonna check the

498
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: check real quick. Kevin take account there? Yeah? Wow, pretty close?

499
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: And what what are we at okay, all right, thanks scretch.

500
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: We have like eight five games left. You're gonna need

501
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: to put Kevin on speakers so we don't have to

502
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: interrupt every time I have a question that you can't answer.

503
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: All right, I we went to five and a half

504
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: on the game, and but the ticket accounts dead even

505
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: on that, just dead even. You're gonna end up going higher.

506
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: IM telling you right now. You know five is that

507
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 1: no man's land? So yeah, yeah, it's people are gonna

508
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: lay that five. They'rena lay that five and a half.

509
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: You're gonna get stuck into a spot where you're gonna

510
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 1: end up at six, six and a half. I think

511
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: the sharp guys are gonna take it. Yeah, it's too many.

512
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: I'm not. You don't see two. You don't see a five,

513
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: five and a half go up to seven very often.

514
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 1: Usually see it come down if a team isn't if

515
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: we don't make them close to seven to begin with,

516
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: barring an injury, I see it going down. Lay it now,

517
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: don't patronize me or lay it later. No, I don't

518
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: believe it as much. I don't feel its strong. Indianapolis

519
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: is a four point favorite on the road against the

520
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: once mighty Jacksonville Jaguars. Uh, if I'm looking at this right,

521
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 1: this line open to two and a half, it's been

522
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: bed up to four. Our wise guys betting the Colts

523
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: that heavily, just because Cody Kessler and learned for Net

524
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: are out. So and boy, you know the last few weeks,

525
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's been Colts, Colts, Colts. The public has

526
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: been riding them. And we talked about it early on

527
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: in the season. Uh, we want once luck gets going

528
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 1: and this team, uh you know, gets their sea legs

529
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 1: under them and in which they have, and you're seeing

530
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: those pointspreads getting bigger and bigger each week. Uh. They

531
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,719
Speaker 1: fell short last week against against the Dolphins, which kind

532
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: of saved our bacon a little it. But uh but no,

533
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: this this Colts team is just fast becoming that that

534
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: public team again. So um yeah. And and they're done

535
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: with Jacksonville. I mean, the public is just done with that.

536
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: I want nothing to do with them. Personnel changes doesn't matter.

537
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: That's not gonna sway any anyone into into having anything

538
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,719
Speaker 1: to do with them. So it's just gonna be all

539
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 1: all Colts. It's such an interesting team, like they've lost

540
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: what seven in a row, they started three and one. Um,

541
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: the wheels fell off against the Chiefs like that was

542
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: sort of the end of the road for them. They

543
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: gave up a crapload of points. Blake Portals started looking

544
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: like Blake ports. They had four or five chances in

545
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 1: the red zone. I remember this game very specifically, blew

546
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 1: them all. Blake Bortles through an interception in the red

547
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: zone off of an offensive lineman's helmet and that was it. Yeah,

548
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: now then it was over. Y Um. They couldn't recover

549
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: from that. No, I mean there's a team that just

550
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: relied on their defense. I mean, look at how far

551
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: they went last year. And they were just saying that

552
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: Bortles was just you know, he was so close. They

553
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: were going to work on his arm because that's why

554
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: he's slinging it off guy's helmets, because he's like three

555
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 1: quarters almost throwing the throwing the ball side arm. They

556
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 1: were gonna work with him and that was going to

557
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: be the difference maker, and uh just went went the

558
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 1: other way. He just regressed. I believe they call that

559
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: an arm slot. So you got the technical terms, you know,

560
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: maybe making, but it's the truth. So yeah, this this

561
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: like that time in the podcast where you made up

562
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 1: the fact that, uh, the Saints were gonna trade for

563
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: Eli Apple and they were in competition with the Eagles,

564
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: and then it just had just happy right, Yeah, get lucky.

565
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 1: Sometimes you just throw stuff out there, and you know,

566
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,919
Speaker 1: sometimes it happens. Have the wise guys waiting on this game.

567
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 1: Yeah they're on the cold. I feel like I missed

568
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,839
Speaker 1: the best of the number on that. Yeah you're done there,

569
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: Carolina three and a half at Tampa Bay. Wow, Yeah right.

570
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: I think I think the numbers right there. Um, the public,

571
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: the public has been on Panthers the last couple of weeks,

572
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: but that's with real short numbers. Laying anything more than

573
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: a field goal, they get a little they get a

574
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 1: little nervous. Um. So in this one, I think we're

575
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: gonna get pretty good, pretty good two way, probably just

576
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 1: a little heavier on the on the Panthers. I look

577
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 1: at these numbers lately, and normally I've got like a

578
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: really good read on which side I want to go with,

579
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: and I just this week is tough. I feel like

580
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking at sort of an unsolved puzzle where the

581
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: pieces are missing, do you know what I mean? I

582
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 1: don't know what to do in this Carolina game. No,

583
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,439
Speaker 1: that's a that's a tough one. That's why I said,

584
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: I think we got the number right. So when it's

585
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: tough to really pick what side, uh that you like?

586
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,320
Speaker 1: That means it's a pretty good According to the Action

587
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: Network gap, the free Action Network gap, sixty of the

588
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 1: money is coming in on Tampa Bay. Means the wise

589
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: guys are betting the Tampa Bay because the ticket account

590
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 1: is on Carolina, And that makes sense. Wise guys are

591
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 1: just betting the home dog, you know, getting getting a

592
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: little value at three and a half. Yeah, I guess so.

593
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: But that's gonna be pretty much a corner TV game.

594
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 1: All right. This next one, man, oh my god, you

595
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 1: are going to be sucking air on this game. Do

596
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: you know what came? I'm talking about Kansas City, Kansas

597
00:35:55,719 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: City point favorite on the Road Raiders. So let me

598
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 1: just tell you that people in Las Vegas they love

599
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 1: the Raiders the last couple of years for a couple

600
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 1: of reasons, one of them being that they're coming to

601
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: Las Vegas and they love him this year too. Only

602
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 1: they love him this year because they bet against him

603
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 1: every week and they win money every week. It's just

604
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: an automatic. They bet against the Raiders. It's you know,

605
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 1: local TV coverage, that's what they talk about, talk about

606
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: the Raiders, talk about the Raider games. Just one of

607
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 1: the games will be shown on TV, and it's just

608
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,919
Speaker 1: bet against him. We can't make these points spreads high enough.

609
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 1: This one is another one. Like we talked about early,

610
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: You have to just bet the Raiders. You have to

611
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: take them as a as a professional handicapper. How many

612
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: professional better do you think are taking the Raiders right now? Kevin? Oh,

613
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: let me put them on you're there? How many professional

614
00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: betters have taken the Raiders at plus fifteen? They took

615
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: fifteen and a half. Professional betters took fifteen and a

616
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 1: half right as we opened it. As soon as as

617
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 1: soon as we opened it, got it. If you're a

618
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: professional better, you have to take the Raiders. I can't

619
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,479
Speaker 1: wait to rename this podcast The Favorites with Chatt and Kevin.

620
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: Did Kevin hear that he's right here? Does Kevin listen

621
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,399
Speaker 1: to the podcast? Does he know you're on a podcast? Kevin?

622
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 1: Do you know that I do a podcast? Already already

623
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: mentioned a few times? Does Kevin know who I am?

624
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: Does he know I'm famous? Do you know who this

625
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: guy is? Just from the podcast, I'm muting you all right,

626
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: So we know that there's at least one professional better

627
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 1: who took it a fifteen and a half and nobody

628
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: of fifteen New York Jets plus eight on the road

629
00:37:56,200 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: at Tennessee. They showed up on Sunday for a while.

630
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: If we if we could count the score after three quarters,

631
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: classid Josh McCown game good enough for three quarters? Yeah?

632
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: Uh you know, I ironically I missed the end of it,

633
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 1: and I just you know, I had to call in

634
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: just to see how much we uh we lost, and

635
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 1: they said, uh, you know, the Jets were right there

636
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: at the end and they could have scored and they

637
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: came up short. I missed that, but thanks for telling me.

638
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: That just makes me feel so much better. Yeah. So,

639
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 1: but I just looked at the final score and that's all.

640
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:40,240
Speaker 1: It's all you need to right the right side is said, Um,

641
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: I I think this line. I mean that the public

642
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 1: isn't necessarily going to lay that that big number. I

643
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: think we'll get some pretty good two way at that number.

644
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: There's still a lot of Jet supporters out there, just

645
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 1: the general public. I mean, um, I don't think the

646
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 1: Wise guys have laid uh have weighed in on this

647
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 1: one yet? To check with Kevin real quick, Kevin Wise guys,

648
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: the Jets, the Wise guys weigh in on this one.

649
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: If they took nine right away? It took nine? Yeah, okay,

650
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: all right, thank you? Yep, yeah, yeah, it's a big

651
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: it's a big number. It's it's a little too big.

652
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's on the high side. But no

653
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: one's bett eight. No one's Betton plus eight. No, No,

654
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna bet that game. No, not allegedly betting

655
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 1: anything yet. Uh. Seattle minus nine and a half at

656
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 1: home against San Francisco. Boy, the Seahawks are just impressive.

657
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 1: They're gonna yeah, they're gonna lay this one. And even

658
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: even when the Seahawks lose, they still draw some support

659
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: from the public betters the next week. It's not that

660
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: it's not like the public has been fickle with them.

661
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,359
Speaker 1: They've been on them as as underdogs, as favorites. Uh.

662
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 1: They just ride it out with this team. So this

663
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 1: is gonna be another um, another game whether the public

664
00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: is going to be on the on the Seahawks. So

665
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: we're deaf lee on the high side here. Um, if

666
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: you're if you're professional handicapper, you know you don't lay

667
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 1: that number. You take it. But they're not taking it.

668
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: Not yet. We're gonna have to inch up on this

669
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: one a little bit. But we're good right now. No,

670
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: do we still do we had through the horn, I

671
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: didn't have the headphone. We've done the horn. Yea, we're

672
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 1: doing that alright. Uh, here's the game. I like might

673
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 1: have to allegedly bet this New England minus five against Minnesota.

674
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: I like the vikings here. Well, yeah, everyone, did you

675
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,800
Speaker 1: know we we went really hot on the high side

676
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,359
Speaker 1: here and they took the Vikings right away? What did

677
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: you open? A? Wow? See I can't knowing the seven

678
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 1: was out there. I can't bet minus five plus five? Yeah,

679
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: because you missed it. I missed on principal. You can't.

680
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: You can't take it. Suck. Well, we'll still we'll still

681
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,400
Speaker 1: get plenty of patriot mind. This will creep back up,

682
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,239
Speaker 1: but you won't get that. You won't get seven. Where

683
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: do you think I'll get it at you'll get you'll

684
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 1: get six six and a half. Maybe I'll take six

685
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: and a half, you'll take six and a half. I

686
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 1: would do that. Um, But you know, a lot of

687
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: a lot of value on this one. I mean, I

688
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: hate saying it, but you know how many times have

689
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: we gone against the Patriots. You go against the Patriots.

690
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 1: But this weekend I was on the Patriots that like

691
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 1: minus a hundred and I still won the bet, you

692
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Yeah, and like they didn't they

693
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 1: didn't play well even and still covered. I still covered.

694
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: But now you're gonna go against them. Well, I think

695
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: Minnesota's a better team than the Jet Yeah, yeah, for sure.

696
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: Kirk Coffins Cousins is having just a ridiculous, ridiculously good year. Um.

697
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 1: And I think their defense is really good and I

698
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: think the Patriots defense is not so good. I think

699
00:41:54,640 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 1: you're right. I'm waiting, though, I'm waiting even there right now. Yeah,

700
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 1: sixty what well of the money is on Minnesota seventy

701
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 1: three of the tickets around New England. That's that's why

702
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 1: I said the public will drive that number up. The

703
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,360
Speaker 1: bigger money is going to be on the on the

704
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 1: Vikings because we deliberately went on the high side. I'm

705
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: gonna hold that powder. The late move is the correct move.

706
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:31,359
Speaker 1: So if the late move ends up being uh, the

707
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,880
Speaker 1: line goes up to six and a half and stays there.

708
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: Does that mean the right move is to bet on

709
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: the Patriots manus five? I mean if you just do

710
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,359
Speaker 1: some analysis and you look at a lot of those

711
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 1: moves on Sunday morning, the two hours before kickoff, most

712
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 1: of the time those are the that's the right side.

713
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 1: I'm going to do some analysis on that. We would

714
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: actually network have something called bet labs and um actually

715
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,399
Speaker 1: networks where I work, and um we've out a free

716
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: app you can download it and uh bet labs like

717
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: has access to all this data over the past twenty

718
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: years where we can analyze everything like from whether patterns

719
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 1: to point spreads to you know, home and away all

720
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. How far back it's pretty good? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Um,

721
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:21,759
Speaker 1: you don't want to go too far back. You want

722
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 1: it to be real, you want to be relevant. No,

723
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 1: I get it. Uh So I'm gonna do a little

724
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: The late move is I'm going to create a late move.

725
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:34,799
Speaker 1: Is the correct move system? How do teams do in

726
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 1: the last two hours? How do bets in the last

727
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: two hours do moving in one direction or the other? Okay, Um,

728
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,719
Speaker 1: I'll tell you how it goes because you might want

729
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 1: to just break it down a little bit more. I'm

730
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:51,239
Speaker 1: just thinking about this half A point may not make it.

731
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 1: It has to be a significant move for it to be.

732
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:59,800
Speaker 1: What's defined significant, I think more than I think probably

733
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 1: more than a point point in a half unless it's

734
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 1: unless it's like at three. I mean, like we talked

735
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,560
Speaker 1: about before, going from three to three and a half,

736
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: it's probably more more significant than going from eleven and

737
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:13,879
Speaker 1: a half to I can test it in the host

738
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 1: of the ways. I can be like, gimme line moves

739
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 1: in the last two hours before kickoff. How do teams

740
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 1: do when the line moves from three to three and

741
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 1: a half? And then how do I how do teams

742
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,759
Speaker 1: do when they moves from five to seven? You know

743
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 1: that's what you should do. What is Kevin? Think? Kevin?

744
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 1: Okay with that? Kevin? You're there? Think you like that?

745
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 1: You like that analysis. He's working, He's Kevin's busy. He's

746
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: treating it honestly, he's treating the podcast the way you

747
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 1: treat the podcast. Thanks Kevin. Uh Los Angeles Chargers plus

748
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:51,320
Speaker 1: three and a half against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Pittsburgh.

749
00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 1: This is that hook. That hook is like bait. It

750
00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:02,800
Speaker 1: is trying to to to capture itself in my cheek,

751
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 1: the professional better has to take the three and a half.

752
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 1: We are just like last week, that was the game

753
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:13,960
Speaker 1: that's that bailed this out was against the Broncos and

754
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 1: we needed them just to save our day. Uh, this

755
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: will be a little bit different case. It will be

756
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: the late game, which is always a much bigger game

757
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 1: for us. It's the bailout game. And so we know

758
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: that there's gonna be plenty of Parley money on on

759
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: on Pittsburgh. But when you have two real good teams

760
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 1: and one of them is getting more than three points,

761
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: the same segment of the general public, they flip it

762
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 1: and they bet they take the Yeah. Yeah, so any

763
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,480
Speaker 1: any big game now, you know when the Yankees and

764
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,160
Speaker 1: Red Sox are always if they're both good and one

765
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 1: of them is getting plus a dollar fifty, they'll take

766
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,720
Speaker 1: the dog. It doesn't matter who will. Is that because

767
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 1: the public getting smarter? Yeah yeah, and they they look

768
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 1: the public is looking at value now which they've never

769
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: done before. So in national championship games, college now championship games, automatically,

770
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 1: if a team was laying three and a half four points,

771
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,920
Speaker 1: we'd get money on the favorite. Now it's like, Okay,

772
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,879
Speaker 1: well Clemson's playing Alabama, why don't They're both good enough

773
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 1: to get here. I'm taking the dog with points, you know,

774
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 1: and they have a probably good a good shot to

775
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,399
Speaker 1: win the game. Out Right, We're getting more of that

776
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 1: than we've ever gone before. I'm not saying it's still

777
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 1: more than the people that are laying the favorite, but

778
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 1: we're getting more dog money in big games than we've

779
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 1: ever gotten in the past. You know why, people are

780
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 1: getting smarter because of the shows like like yours. It's

781
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 1: only taken about seven years, but finally yeah. Yeah. The

782
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,360
Speaker 1: last game of the night is the Monday and night

783
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:47,840
Speaker 1: football game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington Redskins.

784
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:55,399
Speaker 1: The Eagles are six and a half point favorites. Yeah,

785
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,400
Speaker 1: this is this is a tough one Monday night game. Uh,

786
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 1: talking about people laying favorites. Any time you're you're close

787
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:03,880
Speaker 1: to those key numbers threes and sevens, if you're at

788
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 1: six and a half, we know the public is gonna

789
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 1: lay that number. Um, so we're gonna we're gonna end

790
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 1: up needing the Redskins on this one. Um, Philly's disappointed

791
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:17,800
Speaker 1: most of the betters most of the most of the year. Um,

792
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 1: so that's kind of slowed them down a little bit.

793
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: But on a Monday night game, laying laying six and

794
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,399
Speaker 1: a half, where they're gonna be. They're gonna be all

795
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 1: over the Eagles on this one. So I think the

796
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:32,359
Speaker 1: wise guys will probably take Washington. So if anything, this

797
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 1: line comes down, uh, you know what it's time for

798
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: I think. So how you're doing scoutule that last week,

799
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:44,440

801
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:55,000
