There has never been a situation where the 22 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: betting line in the Super Bowl is closed. 23 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: It all pick them right now. 24 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: The handle is not as high as it's been in 25 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 2: recent years either. But we're gonna get to all that 26 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: stuff because there is there were other things in the news, 27 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 2: and we've got to cover it all. 28 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 3: We've simply got to cover it all. 29 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 2: I cannot remember ever ever that heading into the Super 30 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: Bowl game on Sunday that any other sport with upstage 31 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: as far as the news cycle goes the NFL now. 32 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 2: I know, I haven't really checked how many times the 33 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 2: trade deadline fell seventy two hours. 34 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 3: Before kickoff with a Super Bowl. 35 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: But it all started last Saturday night, when you know, 36 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: about half an hour before was signing on My Saturday show. 37 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 2: There's this jaw dropping, blockbuster trade that many people thought 38 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 2: was a hoax or a fake, including Lebron himself, who 39 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: you know, believes he's king of the universe when it 40 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: comes to running the Lakers. And this is gonna be 41 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 2: a boone story on and off the court. 42 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 3: We don't even know. 43 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 2: I have no idea if these two will ever even 44 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 2: get on the damn court, all right? Can you get 45 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: on the damn court already, maybe it'll be Monday. Don't 46 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: hold your breath. 47 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 3: But for the Lakers, for the NBA, for. 48 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 2: The job that we do, this is going to continue 49 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 2: to be a boon and the fallout just keeps coming. 50 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 2: And we find out now that Luka Doncik never has 51 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: to be traded. 52 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 3: Never threat refusal of a five year. 53 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: Forty five million dollars super Max contract he could have 54 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: theoretically signed this summer made no mistake. 55 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 3: He was the face of the. 56 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 2: Mavericks franchise, a perennial MVP candidate the past six seasons, 57 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: made five All Star teams, and led a very much 58 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: underdog Mavericks team to the Western Conference Finals in twenty 59 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 2: twenty two and the NBA Finals just last year. Facts 60 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 2: hashtag facts. No player like him at this juncture of 61 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 2: his career had ever been traded. And I said it 62 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: when I signed on Saturday Night. Look superstars get traded. 63 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 2: I gave the chronology of Louell sinder Kareem Abdul Jabarro 64 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: Lakers as well, But I can never remember two superstars 65 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: traded for each other in the dead of night, in 66 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: the middle of the season, right before the trade deadline 67 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: with this sudden, you know, coming out of nowhere, and 68 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 2: the question now is will it be impactful? 69 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 3: I don't think so. I don't think the Lakers. 70 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: Have any better chance of winning an NBA title with 71 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: Luca and Lebron, And I'll get into that. 72 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 3: I'll get into the reasons why. 73 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: By the way, As for Davis and the Lakers, Anthony 74 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 2: Davis didn't have to be traded either, nor is he 75 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 2: a slouch. He's averaged twenty six points and twelve boards 76 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 2: a game this year, which frankly supports Lebron James statements. 77 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 3: And I don't know. 78 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: Every time my Lebron says something, my teeth itched, so 79 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 2: I don't know if he means it or not. But 80 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: he said that he believed, you know, that Anthony Davis 81 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,799 Speaker 2: was the Lakers' best player this season. Do I believe 82 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 2: Lebron really believes that? No, Hell no, I don't. But 83 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 2: I believe Lebron wanted to say it for effect. And 84 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 2: Anthony Davis has been pretty solid all right. Remember he 85 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 2: forced his way off the New Orleans Pelicans in twenty nineteen. 86 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 2: Davis did finagle to trade to the Lakers with the 87 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 2: help of Rich Paul, who actually who's also Lebron's agent, 88 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 2: and then James and Davis. They've been kind of fricking act. 89 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: They've been an inseparable pair. Davis has been the defensive anchor. 90 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 2: I see that at air quotes when he was available 91 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 2: all the last couple of years. And they did win 92 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 2: the championship in twenty twenty. Remember the great NBA Final 93 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 2: tournament that you know, the it was what I was 94 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 2: calling the you you know, the the Hotel California NBA Finals. 95 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 2: You can check out any time you want, but you 96 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 2: could never leave. Yeah, Lakers didn't have to travel for 97 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: four months, and uh, I. 98 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: Think they benefited from that. But I digress. 99 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 2: In the age of player empowerment, though Anthony Davis the 100 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 2: resume is probably strong enough on its own to have 101 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 2: to at least be consulted any trade, especially the trade 102 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 2: involves him. And if Anthony Davis isn't quite that player 103 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,559 Speaker 2: on his own, well, one would think his relationship with Lebron, James, 104 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 2: n Rich Paul should have afforded him the opportunity to 105 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 2: hear he could be traded before he was traded and 106 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 2: speak up if he didn't like it. But Rob Polink 107 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 2: has served, not its new sheriff in town. There's going 108 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 2: to be a statue Rob Polenka in front of Staples 109 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 2: Center someday, even if they never went again. Remember he 110 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 2: was on that Fab five Michigan team, So dude's got 111 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 2: a resume instead. Thanks to the leadership and command decisions 112 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: and unilateral decisions made by Rob Polenkat, neither Anthony Davis, 113 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 2: nor Rich Paul nor Lebron James was given the chance 114 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: to speak up. The deal was hatched in the middle 115 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 2: of the night by two front office executives who really 116 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 2: kept the negotiations as quite as possible. So right now, honestly, 117 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: the basketball world is still reeling from that deal. Davis 118 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 2: to Dallas coming out of nowhere, and would you consider 119 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 2: all the league's trade speculations, rumors in you and it's 120 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 2: a miracle they kept as quiet. It's a major move 121 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 2: for the Lakers, though, because they're a franchise of eras 122 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 2: you know, I've talked about this a bazillion times. They're popular, 123 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: they're iconics. People love them, people love the hit. Their 124 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: second NBA history with seventeen championships, They've gone from the wilt, 125 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 2: you know, West Baylor Jabbar Era to Lebron, checked that 126 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 2: magic and Kareem to Kobe and Shack to Lebron and 127 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: then of course now Bronni and dude's even making threes. 128 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 2: Now get out of the way, here comes Bronnie James 129 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 2: to Now the torch clearly will be handed to Luka Doncic. 130 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 2: He will be that face long after Lebron has gone. 131 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: Although I don't know if Lebron will ever leave. I 132 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: think I think he'll play an under ten or fifteen 133 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 2: years because he just missed this spot. He'll realize, you know, 134 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 2: he'd been in the spotlight. He misses the spotlight a 135 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: hell of a lot more than the spotlight's gonna. 136 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 3: Miss him immediately. 137 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: The Lakers championship odds more than doubled. The books got 138 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: out ahead of it. It was kind of a cya thing. 139 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 2: But based on a probability of going from two point 140 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 2: four percent to five point five percent, you know that's 141 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: not exactly a ringing endorsement. I think they went from 142 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 2: forty to one to eighteen to one. But look, we're 143 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 2: gonna watch this. I'm sure as hell gonna watch this. 144 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: The Lakers now gained a major offensive boost from the 145 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 2: arrival of Luka Doncic. What will that manifest itself as? 146 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 2: Will it be a deep playoff run? But we're gonna 147 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 2: have a very fun midnight hour tonight coming up at 148 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 2: about fifty one minutes. Give this some thought, Luca, Lebron, 149 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about this as part of it, all right. 150 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 2: Remember the Lakers had first round losses in twenty twenty 151 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 2: four and twenty twenty one, a non appearance in twenty 152 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: twenty two, but did get to the conference finals a 153 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 2: couple of years ago amazingly. So now you've got another 154 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: franchise face for when Lebron James ever chooses to retire. 155 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 2: He said he could still play at a high level 156 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 2: for another five to seven years and perhaps continue to 157 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 2: give postgame comments at a very low level for another. 158 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 3: Fifty to seventy years. 159 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: But he says, I'm not going to do that, which 160 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 2: means it's exactly what he's probably gonna do. Le's playing basketball. 161 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 2: It's what he does, and okay, and he's made the 162 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 2: Lakers franchise a lot of money. But listen, gotta be fair, 163 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 2: Luco Doncik and Lebron James on the court together, he's 164 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 2: gonna be Musky Television at least for a while. Seriously, 165 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 2: the Lakers are back in the sports conversation. Okay, they 166 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 2: may have even edged out the Dodgers for a while. 167 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 2: And you know, pitchers and catchers are going to reporting 168 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 2: it about six days, by the way, so we are 169 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 2: watching it. 170 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 3: This is a boon. What about Dallas? 171 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, it ain't easy to be in 172 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 2: Nico Harrison right now, the general manager for the MAVs. 173 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,079 Speaker 2: He tried to put a brave face on the decision, saying, 174 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: you know, the defense wins championships and arguing that they 175 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 2: are now improved with Anthony Davis, who still has yet 176 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 2: to play, been in town a few days, hadn't played yet. 177 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 2: I don't know that people are buying it, though. People 178 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: are really scratching their head to don't understand the logic 179 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 2: of the deal. I'm guessing he you know, somewhere along 180 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 2: the line, is talented and prolific offensively, as Luka Doncic says, 181 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 2: he just bugged this dude. He bugged Nico, he bugged him, 182 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: and he says, I'll be damn if I give this 183 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: guy three point fifty if even though he can score 184 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: you know forty any night. He's built like a Donuts 185 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: sales in a can't guarter park car. It's bugging me. 186 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 2: It eventually will come out maybe or not. All right, 187 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 2: So the truth of the matter is Dallas has other 188 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 2: issues too. They want to build a new arena. The 189 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 2: American Airline Center is a bit aged, and you know, 190 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 2: maybe it puts it puts people on notice, all right, 191 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 2: anybody can be traded. People better have a certain loyalty 192 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 2: to and commitment, and you better be held to a standard, 193 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 2: so on and so forth. Meanwhile, Kevin Durant didn't get traded. 194 00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 2: More to follow on that will cover it. Have a 195 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 2: with Mark Mondena on Saturday. And meanwhile, you can say 196 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 2: the Jimmy Butler era has entered in Miami officially thanks 197 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 2: to a massive five team trade. I believe Butler will 198 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 2: play tomorrow Saturday. The Warriors had reportedly been going after 199 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 2: several players in recent days. Kevin Durant was mentioned, although 200 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 2: allegedly he didn't want to play for Golden State anymore. 201 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: Butler already waived is his fifty five million he would 202 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 2: have been the next two seasons and or fifty two 203 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 2: whatever it was signed for one hundred eleven million. 204 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 3: Extension for the next two years. And there's a whole 205 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 3: bunch of players. 206 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 2: I don't I got to name them all, Pete, you 207 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 2: know Old j Tucker, Lenny Wallers and Luke, Josh Richardson 208 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: and Dennis Shrewder, the legendary the Jazz were even involved. 209 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 3: So were the Raptors. 210 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 2: And I, you know, need to failanths of attorneys to 211 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 2: sort that one out. I could do it for you, 212 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 2: but I don't think you care one final thing. Not 213 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 2: not for nothing. 214 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 3: In the wake of the Luca trade Luca for Anthony Davis, 215 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 3: the Lakers also goodbye to Dalton Connect. 216 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 2: Sheesh barely been there. I thought it was an excellent 217 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 2: draft choice. They acquired center Mark Williams. That are trade 218 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 2: with the Charlotte Hornets, and Dalton Connect was their prize rookie. 219 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 2: They also send Cam Reddish. 220 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 3: Look. 221 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: The Lakers had potentially two first round picks to work 222 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 2: with in the trade deadline. The first one went to 223 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 2: the Mavericks in the twenty twenty nine pick, and now 224 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 2: they're going to use his second one to acquire Mark Williams. 225 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 4: Now. 226 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 2: Mark Williams is out of Duke, a center been in 227 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 2: the League three years and is he athletic yes? Is 228 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 2: he what you would call an elite rim protector? No 229 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 2: good defender? Yes, guess what. 230 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 3: Here's the good news. 231 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 2: And a little over two hundred games during his NBA career, 232 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: he's playing about eighty five of them. He's been sixty 233 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 2: percent of the games. He does good worker around the rim, 234 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: And again I'm a little baffled. The Lakers are high 235 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 2: on that. But to imply that getting getting Mark Williams 236 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 2: replaces Anthony Davis, Nah, I'm not buying it. I'm not 237 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 2: buying it. So there's a whole lot more. We're gonna 238 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 2: get to all of it. But we got to talk 239 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 2: a little Super Bowl as well coming up because we've 240 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 2: got the legend Bill Crackman Krackenberger. He'll join us in 241 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 2: a minute here and he'll take it behind the scenes 242 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 2: here in Vegas. As to what's going on super Bowl 243 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 2: weekends is always a heater. And look, it's interesting because 244 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 2: right now the most popular bet involves around Sequon Barkley, 245 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: not the game itself. I'm telling you this is a 246 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 2: weird one, and I'm an ass crack man. I think 247 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 2: the handle's gonna dip from what it's been in previous years, 248 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: and there's multiple reasons for that, but regardless, it's still 249 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 2: gonna be crazy.

And this is actually going to 275 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 6: be a couple of late nights here back to back, 276 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 6: probably back to back to back. So it's been an 277 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 6: all week here. Pretty surprised out here in Vegas. I 278 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 6: didn't expect to have so many bets early in the week, 279 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 6: usually betting my overs early when the lines come up, 280 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 6: which was like last Thursday in Vegas here, and betting 281 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 6: my unders more towards game time, especially Marquis teams in 282 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 6: a big matchup here looking to bet some unders. Probably 283 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 6: on day of the game Sunday, I'll probably have about 284 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 6: sixty about sixty percent of my bets will be going 285 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 6: in on Sunday. 286 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 2: Correct question for you. I have never seen a line 287 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 2: this tight. A Super Bowl line has never closed to 288 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: pick them. Full disclosure, I fired on the Chiefs a 289 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 2: few days ago minus one I see from Philly money 290 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 2: coming in. 291 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 3: I saw the game go to a pick. I went 292 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 3: to fire around at a pick, couldn't get it. 293 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna wait as this line continues to move, what 294 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: do you expected to close on Sunday? 295 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 7: Uh? 296 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 3: It's you know again, we've never seen a Super Bowl 297 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 3: game pick, but it's just a very interesting line movement here, 298 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 3: two way action, your thoughts. 299 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 6: As we speak right here, eleven twenty four pm, Vegas time, 300 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 6: Friday night, Westgate minus a dollar ten on Kansas City, 301 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 6: South Point minus a dollar ten on Kansas City. So 302 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 6: right now there are two pick ems in Las Vegas 303 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 6: on the money line. You have to go over the 304 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 6: money line section of the line if you want to. 305 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 6: You can actually lay one on both games. Of course, 306 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 6: you're not gonna lay one with those sportsbooks. If you're 307 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 6: gonna beet Kansas City, you're gonna lay the pick them. 308 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 6: So I guess I expect that money here in town. 309 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 6: I've been hearing about it. You know, this line was 310 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 6: plus one and a half minus five juice the South 311 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 6: Point just literally forty eight hours ago, and now down 312 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 6: to a pick kind of surprises me. That would happen 313 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 6: so fast. I expected it more on Sunday though. I 314 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 6: don't see this game closing Philadelphia being a one point favorite, 315 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 6: but you never know. You never know, and these are 316 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 6: not dead numbers with the overtime rule, you know the 317 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 6: one you know if a team goes to overtime and 318 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 6: someone scores seven, the game. 319 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 4: Is not over. 320 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 6: The other team gets a chance to four and they're 321 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 6: probably going to go for two points because there's a 322 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 6: forty percent chance the other team getsvold and drives down 323 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 6: and gets a field goal, so analytics will come into play. 324 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 6: I would think taking the one point or the one 325 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 6: and a half. Like I actually did hedge a little bit. 326 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 6: I have some big futures on Kansas City and I 327 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 6: actually did bet Kansas City money line. I thought I 328 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 6: was getting ahead of the curb. I found the Kansas 329 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 6: City minus one fifteen. I didn't see this game coming 330 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 6: down to pick them when I bet the game that 331 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:03,360 Speaker 6: the night of the NFC NAFC Championship games, deciding who 332 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 6: was going to be in the Super Bowl for rare time, 333 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 6: but they're going to beat me on the line for 334 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 6: a couple of cents. But that is when you have 335 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 6: a big matchup like this. 336 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, pick the minus one ten is 337 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 2: the best I've seen. Maybe I'm not paying attention. Even 338 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 2: when I saw a touch pick them, I saw minus 339 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 2: one twenty five and such. 340 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 3: But that's a story for a different day. 341 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 2: Crack I followed sort of the betting action and is 342 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 2: we all know the vast majority of the action is 343 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 2: going to come in in the next forty eight hours 344 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: right for the game. 345 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 3: But even be that as it. 346 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 2: May, it feels like the total handle for Super Bowl 347 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 2: fifty nine, everybody. 348 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 3: Loves to call Super Bowl licks. 349 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 2: The bottom line is we may have a lower handle 350 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 2: than we had last year, which would be the first 351 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 2: time we dipped in a while. 352 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 3: Your thoughts on that, If. 353 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 6: There is any type of a bet I can make 354 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 6: on a lower handle, it would be my largest bed 355 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 6: of the Super Bowl spot on spot on you know, 356 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 6: I'm about to put a I'll put it up tomorrow 357 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 6: morning on Twitter, every pretty active Twitter space. I just 358 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 6: cut a piece of my podcast which was so back midweek, 359 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 6: about three days ago, and I actually said during the podcast, 360 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 6: I said, listen, I've been around these casinos the last week. 361 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 6: It's that there's nobody here. It was you could have 362 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 6: ran a Sherman Tanks or the Cosmo, and you wouldn't 363 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 6: have hit nobody. Like I said, what's going on here? 364 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 6: It's like the column before the storm. Maybe, or maybe 365 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 6: it's just that Vegas finally outpriced itself with these ridiculous fees, 366 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 6: room rates, price gouging. People just may be sick and 367 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 6: tired of it, or maybe the economy doesn't usually, you know, 368 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 6: show itself in Las Vegas, you know, during times of 369 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 6: recessions and stuff. We're one of the things that are 370 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 6: recession proof is gambling. But I don't know. They may 371 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 6: have finally facing a bear market here, a credit card 372 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 6: that is an all time high. People always find money 373 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,239 Speaker 6: to gamble, and they take chances with gambling when they 374 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 6: are faced with unburdened and decision making. 375 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 4: But I'll just tell you I. 376 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 6: Have seen it even tonight. 377 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 4: There's no way. 378 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 6: There's just no way they're going to get the crowds 379 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 6: that they did in previous Super Bowls at Friday night. 380 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 6: The places aren't packed. So I think they've outpriced themselves 381 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 6: and and people are And then again there's gambling in 382 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 6: like thirty eight states. But yeah, yeah, there is this 383 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 6: gambling a lot of states. 384 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 4: I get that. 385 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 6: But we've had this gambling thing now for eight years. Uh, 386 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 6: you know, nationwide, this legalized gambling draft King Fandules MGM seizears, 387 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 6: we've had this nationwide gambling and uh, I just haven't 388 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 6: seen the slow the drop off period like I did 389 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 6: from this year or so from last year to this year. 390 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 6: So yeah, I don't think I really don't think that 391 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 6: we're gonna touch anything near. Like I said when you 392 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 6: first asked me, my biggest bet in the Super Bowl 393 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 6: would be lower handle than ever, probably well not than ever, 394 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 6: because right it just hits the population. 395 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 8: Then last year, I mean. 396 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 2: Well, he made a lot of great points and I 397 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 2: live here and I've made some of the same observations. 398 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 2: And you know, we're coming up in May the seven 399 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 2: year anniversary of PASPA, so you can bet legally in 400 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 2: thirty eight states. Out of a slightly different take, I 401 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 2: want to run by you. This is a rematch from 402 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 2: two years ago. I don't think people are that jiggy 403 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 2: about this rematch. And I know that we keep hearing 404 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 2: about Chiefs fatigue, like we heard about New England Patriots fatigue, 405 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 2: and we heard about Buffalo Bill's fatigue in the early 406 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 2: nineties and they never even. 407 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 3: Won a Super Bowl. They just went to four of them. 408 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 2: I'm wondering how much this matchup Crack has affected the 409 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: enthusiasm as opposed to if it'd been saying like a 410 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 2: Detroit Buffalo or some thing along those lines. 411 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 3: Your thoughts. 412 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 6: I'm sure you're right. I'm sure Detroit Buffalo would be 413 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 6: a little bit of a bigger super Bowl. I understand 414 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 6: people are maybe be tired of seeing Kansas City, but hey, 415 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 6: Detroit Buffalo. All those teams, I'll even say Washington, Houston, 416 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 6: they all had their chances. They couldn't They couldn't close. 417 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 9: A DC always be closing, they couldn't close. 418 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,719 Speaker 6: The two teams that are here got here because of merit, 419 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 6: because of closing power. I know people are saying, yeah, 420 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 6: but crack, Kansas City gets all the calls. 421 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 10: Well, I'll tell you. 422 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 6: What if that's the case, why is everyone complaining Just 423 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 6: bet on Kansas City every game. I'll tell you what 424 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 6: this this this super Bowl really will be officiated. Well, 425 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 6: there's going to be the the nation's eyes is going 426 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 6: to be going to be on these guys to make 427 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 6: sure that uh you know, they're they're making the right 428 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 6: calls and New York's involved, and and I'll just tell 429 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 6: you know there was bad calls the Buffalo, and case 430 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 6: there was bad calls against Buffalo. I mean you know 431 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 6: that that weren't called on Buffalo too, So it went 432 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 6: two ways. Just that people just looked for reasons. 433 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 4: Why they lost. 434 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 11: Why did I lose? 435 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 6: Well, it happened the rest. 436 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 4: The zebra got me. 437 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 7: This guy got Listen. 438 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 6: You never just look into the mirror and say what, 439 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 6: I just picked their own team. 440 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,680 Speaker 3: It's my fault, that's right. 441 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 6: Everyone thinks they only look at each side of the game. 442 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 6: They bet two different guys can look at the game 443 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 6: and watch the game together, and both guys can make 444 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 6: cases why their team should have won. It's the old story. 445 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 6: Our eyes play tricks on us, and people are all 446 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 6: of a sudden looking for reasons, and they say, oh, 447 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 6: I didn't lose, that I got unlucky. And then they 448 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 6: used the biggest three letter word in the sportsbook industry. 449 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes my teeth itch. I did a lengthy 450 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 2: fifteen minute commentary on this last week. It's nothing more 451 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 2: than a loser's lament. The Bills had plenty of chances 452 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 2: to win the game, so missed me with the loser's 453 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 2: lament and the rest and conspiracy theory, history repeats itself. 454 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 2: There's always a convergence of factors. You look at the 455 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 2: chiefs and their leadership, their decision making, their execution, their 456 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 2: situational awareness. They're the way their confidence, the way they 457 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 2: continue to repeatedly perform in high leverage situations. It's a 458 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,360 Speaker 2: loser's lament. One of the things I want to talk 459 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:24,439 Speaker 2: about Crack is the gaga craziness. People are continuing to 460 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 2: bet on props. Full disclosure, I'm not a prop guy. 461 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 2: I know plenty of people. My buddied physical have probably 462 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 2: seventy five prop bets to me, a lot of more 463 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 2: like needle in a haystack, shooting babies at the moon. 464 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 2: One guy bet five thousand on the coin toss at 465 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 2: bat MGM, let's start there. This just shows you how 466 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 2: people want action and it's an instant payout, and that'll 467 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 2: put eyes on the game. What props. I respect you, 468 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 2: and if you like a prop, it's going to cause 469 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: me to take a serious look at it. Do any 470 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 2: of them really catch your eye? 471 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 6: Let's burning It's real simple. I've been making my living 472 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 6: betting props on NFL for years. It's real simple though. 473 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 6: Here you can come to the Vegas right now and 474 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 6: dump out as much money on the counter as you 475 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 6: can want. 476 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 7: To bet on the side. 477 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,959 Speaker 6: They're gonna book it. They're gonna take it on the game. However, 478 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 6: if I want to bet on a prop bet, I'm 479 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 6: lucky if I get two grand, and by the way, 480 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 6: two thousands. That usual number. Two thousand dollars they are 481 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 6: taking on props here in town when the Westgate. When 482 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,479 Speaker 6: we lined up at the Westgate to make bets last week, 483 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 6: it's the old fashioned lottery they have here in town. 484 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 6: At the West Gate, you get two max bets, go 485 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 6: to the back of the line. Had about twenty pros 486 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 6: there in line. I bet Barkley. I couldn't I found it. 487 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 6: I thought I was not going to find a couple 488 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 6: bets because MGM fan Dual DraftKings, Caesars, they all put 489 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 6: lines out literally the night of the championship games. So 490 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 6: it was a pretty efficient prop market by the time 491 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 6: Thursday rolled around, and I was really surprised to find 492 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 6: like nine to ten bets at the Westgate that night. 493 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 6: Usually I'm going to find overs, Like I said, earlier 494 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,040 Speaker 6: in the week. I actually found it under that I 495 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 6: really like. And guess what, people listening here, You're still 496 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 6: gonna be able to find this number the day of 497 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 6: the game because the public's gonna come in and they're 498 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 6: gonna be betting over on Barkley props. I bet under 499 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 6: barkley longest rush twenty five and a half yards. 500 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 3: Exactly right. 501 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 2: We'll hold that thought. Ye Steve Spagnolo, who's the only 502 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 2: defensive coordinator in history at the NFL to win four 503 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 2: Super Bowls, He's not going to design a defense to 504 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 2: jam Barkley at the line of scrimmage and compromise the 505 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 2: second level his linebackers would be. He'll have gap integrity 506 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,479 Speaker 2: and Barkley may breakoff a few six seven eight yard runs, 507 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 2: but they're not gonna let him do what he did 508 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 2: against Washington. That is the best prop bet on the 509 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 2: board that I saw, and I can't lie. 510 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 3: I bet a half a unit on it. 511 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 2: And the other thing is I bet I had Barkley 512 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 2: under one hundred and sixteen yards. I think they're gonna 513 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 2: make I think they're going to put him in a 514 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,959 Speaker 2: vice and try to make the Eagles play left handed. 515 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 3: But still it's theoretical. Your point to. 516 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 2: Props is outstanding because if you can get information like 517 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 2: during the NFL draft, right, then you're putting the book 518 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 2: at a disadvantage. They have no real advantage over you. Anyway, 519 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: continue on with your prop thought. 520 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 6: No, I was just saying, you know, we only look 521 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 6: at the games from week to week, and you just 522 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 6: remember what happened last week. So my big thing is, 523 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 6: I know, when as soon as he touched the ball 524 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 6: last week first time, you know, he had an unbelievable 525 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 6: run of like sixty yards for a touchdown. So people 526 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 6: remember that and they're like, oh, man, twenty four and 527 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 6: a half, twenty five and a half yard. Of course 528 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 6: he's going to do that at least one store in 529 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 6: the game. So that's why they put that line up there. 530 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 6: Like I said, I think by you know, day of 531 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 6: the game here, I think we're going to find that 532 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 6: number again. I see twenty four and a half out there. 533 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 6: Now I see twenty five and a half under a 534 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 6: dollar nineteen. But I just I like to bet against 535 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 6: the public, So I'm going to bet against the marquee names. 536 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 6: I'm going to be betting under on yards for Barkley 537 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 6: under on longest rush. I'm looking to bet under some 538 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 6: of the Marquis players. I bet under on Mahomes rush 539 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 6: attempts multiple times. I actually bet that at the win 540 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 6: under seven and a half minus fifty seven and a 541 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 6: half minus. I even laid a dollar radio us on 542 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 6: lay a dollar radio on props. I have bet onnder 543 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 6: six and a half minus twenty six and a half 544 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 6: minus fifty I bet thinks so many times. I don't 545 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 6: even know how much money I have. I'm bucker. I 546 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 6: was looking tonight before I jumped on the show. Bucker 547 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 6: over one and a half veh goals. I bet minus 548 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 6: twenty five three times minus thirty twice minus thirty five 549 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 6: once of Saint Jesus. I got almost you know, I 550 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 6: got a lot of money on this. Five figures on 551 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 6: a prop. 552 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 3: But that's a good one. 553 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 2: But Butker over seven and a half kicking points minus 554 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 2: one thirty. I want to jump in and there's one 555 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: other bet I'm going to fire on. You can still 556 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 2: get it. I think at twenty three and a half 557 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 2: the second half under. Do you know in the Chiefs 558 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 2: in their last forty games their second half unders going 559 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 2: thirty one and nine. 560 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 6: No, I didn't know that, and it's because there's total, 561 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 6: the second half total, the. 562 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 2: Second half total under yeah bet and under second half 563 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 2: total going under thirty one and nine in the last 564 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:17,959 Speaker 2: forty games. Because you've got a defensive coordinator that's a genius. 565 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 2: But you got a pretty good one in Vic Fangie 566 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: over in Philadelphia as well, who's also won a Super 567 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 2: Bowl or bet in a Super Bowl. So I think 568 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 2: you'll see second half adjustments and I wouldn't be surprised 569 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 2: if the second half one under. To me, that's a 570 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 2: logical bet, not just some you know, will there be 571 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 2: an interception in the end zone? Bet one hundred to 572 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 2: win one thousand? Those those drive me nuts. You got 573 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 2: the last word, crack. 574 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 12: Yeah. 575 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 6: You know, most of the pros think this game is 576 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 6: gonna have a slow start and actually think the second 577 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 6: half is gonna have more points score than the first half. 578 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 6: And our buddy Steve m mutual buddy, Steve Feick, he 579 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 6: actually liked the over second half. So it's gonna be 580 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 6: head to head Bernie versus Fez. I love it on 581 00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 6: the second half. I didn't get a chance to bet 582 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 6: that one, But you make a good point how they 583 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 6: can make adjustments halftime. 584 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 4: Very good point. 585 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 6: And that's what makes this type of a big game, 586 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 6: marquee game that hard to handicap. Here you have two 587 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 6: guys that are professionals that live, die, sleep, eat and 588 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 6: drink this game and both on opposite sides of this 589 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 6: this type of bet. But that's what makes it a big, 590 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 6: strong game here. That's the reason why you don't want 591 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 6: to over bet your bankroll. I know it's exciting, I 592 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 6: know it's a big game. Everyone's excited, they're going to 593 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 6: be all in. You still should only go of the 594 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 6: maximum of two to three percent each bet of your bankroll. 595 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 6: So if you have ten thousand dollars, that's right, ten 596 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 6: thousand dollars just dedicated for sports betting. The most should 597 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 6: be bet is two hundred dollars per play. But I 598 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 6: know my guys back East, my guys in Philly, my 599 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 6: guys in New York, Washington, the Holy East Coast, Detroit, 600 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 6: we're all so aggressive, we all grew up a little 601 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 6: bit crazy. 602 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 4: We're going all in. 603 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 6: We got a thousand dollars. Every penny of that bankroll 604 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 6: is going in on the game. It's called Gambler's ruin. 605 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 6: R U I N I understand people have to have 606 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 6: action box pools. You got housewives, gambling, everyone involved. 607 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 7: I get it. 608 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 11: I get it. 609 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 6: Just try to have a safe time, responsible time. My 610 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 6: people in Philly, take it easy. I know you're gonna 611 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 6: tear down the city though if the Philadelfi your losers, 612 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 6: but I think you're going to tear it down to 613 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 6: Philadelf your wins, So that's right. Be careful, Please be 614 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 6: safe and responsible. 615 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 2: Just a final thought, because I believe in betting, there 616 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 2: are technical factors in the math. You have to start 617 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 2: with the math. Is there what I believe for fundamental 618 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 2: factors as well. Vic Fangio runs a style of defense. 619 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 2: It centers around living in big plays all right, and 620 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 2: most modern defensive schemes that Fangio has presided over are 621 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 2: going to force a quarterback to be methodical and throw 622 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 2: underneath which Pat Macomes will take. 623 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 12: That. 624 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 2: He'll take that, He'll take what the defense gives him. 625 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 2: He'll be the master of the surgical passing drive. They're 626 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 2: gonna eat clock and two clock. One thing to watch. 627 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 2: Watch how many possessions each team has and add it 628 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 2: up at the end of the game. I bet it'll 629 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 2: be less possessions in this Super Bowl than the last two. 630 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 2: Just something to watch and that favors to me a 631 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 2: second and under and again I'll be the first to 632 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 2: admit it's all theoretical crap. I appreciate you, Bud. We'll 633 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 2: talk again soon.

What if I told you 672 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 2: a record twenty three million Americans planned to skip work 673 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 2: on Super Bowl Monday, according to a recent survey from 674 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 2: a human resource company. By the way, more than half 675 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 2: of those skipping Monday are taking a pre approved day off. 676 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 3: They've already asked for it off. 677 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,720 Speaker 2: Well, they're really fifteen percent are just gonna call in sick, 678 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 2: you know, all that drill goes, and another twenty percent 679 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 2: are simply going to ghost work. But we are finding 680 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 2: year after year after year announce up to forty six percent. 681 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 2: Forty six percent of American support making Super Bowl Monday 682 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 2: on national holiday. And by the way, some municipalities have 683 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,720 Speaker 2: I've already stepped up and done some of this. Remember 684 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 2: three years ago when the Bengals played the Rams in 685 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, I believe that was Super Bowl fifty six. 686 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 2: Cincinnati public schools canceled classes the day after the Bengals played. 687 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 3: Now this year to New Jersey. School districts near Philadelphia 688 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,840 Speaker 3: have said, well, schools get to open up two hours 689 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 3: late on Monday to give students a chance to sleep in. 690 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 2: So you might call that progress, but we want to 691 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:33,760 Speaker 2: hear from you. Should Super Bowl Monday be a national 692 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 2: holiday eight seven seven nine nine six six three six 693 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 2: nine eight seven seven nine ninth on Fox and ten minutes. Yes, 694 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 2: from where I sit here in Las Vegas, it will 695 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 2: literally be twelve midnight, perhaps literally twelve midnight where you're at, 696 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 2: which certainly figuredly twelve midnight. You've got the last laugh. 697 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 2: That's what the Midnight Hour means. Our second topic, did 698 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 2: Eli Manning gets snubbed in the Hall of Fame. Now 699 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 2: he's going to be a Hall of Famer someday. Although 700 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 2: there is one other quarterback with two Super Bowls, Jim Plunkin, 701 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 2: He's not in the Hall of Fame. 702 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 3: Right. 703 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 2: The biggest obstacle that voter said they had would they 704 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 2: never really considered him to be the best player at 705 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 2: his position for a chunk of his career. But remember 706 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 2: it's called the Hall of Fame, famy fame, and I 707 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 2: believe I'll do some top of my head that that 708 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 2: fame is is is defined as you know, notable achievements 709 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 2: that allow you, you know, attention because of your notable 710 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 2: of achievement. 711 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 3: Notable achievements. Well, he beat Tom Brady and Bill Belichick 712 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 3: twice on the biggest stage. That's not Hall of Fame. 713 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 2: I understand voters were not happy about the fact that 714 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 2: Eli was basically one hundred. He was a five hundred 715 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 2: quarterback one and seventeen games, lost one hundred and seventeen games. 716 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 2: But he also joined a terrible team in the New 717 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 2: York Giants. But what if I told you dan Founce 718 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 2: was only two games over five hundred his entire career. 719 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 3: Warren Moon was only one game over five hundred his 720 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 3: entire career. 721 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 2: Neither even made it to the Super Bowl, much less 722 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 2: win one, much less win two. 723 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,800 Speaker 3: Matter of fact, I like it. 724 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 2: I like Warren Moon. He never even made it to 725 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 2: a conference championship game. But guess what, both Dan Founce 726 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,760 Speaker 2: and Warren Moon were each first ballot Hall of Famers. 727 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 2: And I know that Manning takes a lot of you know, 728 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 2: crap for just maybe his body language and facial expressions 729 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 2: and the fact that he wasn't considered the best of 730 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:43,280 Speaker 2: his position. 731 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 3: Well, I guess not. 732 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 2: Okay, played the same era as his brother Peyton, the 733 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 2: same era as Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers, 734 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 2: and he was a four time Pro Bowl selection, but 735 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 2: never an All Pro because the All Pro Award is 736 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,839 Speaker 2: a stats award. That's why Lamar Jackson won the All 737 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 2: Pro Award and the Pro Bowl or the MVPs about 738 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 2: the story when that's the reason Josh Allen won. Get 739 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 2: over it, people. So anyway, that's our second topic. Our 740 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,719 Speaker 2: third topic was all right, the lebron or check that 741 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 2: the Luca for Anthony Davis trade turned the world upside down, 742 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 2: not just the basketball world, the world. And until he's 743 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 2: knuckleheads to get on the floor and play a game together, 744 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 2: it's still looked at until Monday. 745 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 3: It's gonna this is. 746 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,280 Speaker 2: Gonna be a story all year, no matter what happens. 747 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 2: Here's the question will it work? Will it be impactful? 748 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 2: And my definition is will it work? They got to 749 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 2: get to the NBA Finals. They've already been to the 750 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 2: conference finals. They did that twenty twenty three. They already 751 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 2: done that. Lakers have actually already won a championship in 752 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 2: the Lebron era. Yeah it was a bubble one, but 753 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 2: they won it. So forget the story, forget the fallout, 754 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 2: forget the opinions, forget the craziness. Is that the Dallas 755 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 2: fans are just really upset with co Harrison. Is it 756 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 2: gonna work? 757 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 3: So? 758 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 2: Topic one? Super Bowl Monday? Should it be a national holiday? 759 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 2: Topic two? Did Eli Manning get snubbed the Hall of Fame? 760 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 2: And topic number three? Okay, You're gonna never stop hearing 761 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 2: about Luca and Lebron for probably forever. 762 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 3: But will it work? Will it be impactful? 763 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 2: Eight seven seven nine nine, six six three six nine 764 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 2: eight seven seven ninety nine.

The way things 923 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 17: are going in this in in the country lately, Will 924 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 17: I wouldn't be surprised. Next year, the day after the 925 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 17: super Bowl it will be a holiday. I wouldn't be surprised. 926 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 2: That's a joke, right, because I think next year it's 927 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 2: played a week later and it's the next day's President's 928 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 2: Day If I'm not mistaken, right, or is it one 929 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 2: of these years coming up, that's what's gonna happen. 930 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 17: Yeah, because they're gonna put in the eighteen game. 931 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 2: Well, that's a conversation for a different day. The players 932 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 2: union is resisting it, and Goodell won't try to implement 933 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 2: until they negotiate a new uh uh, you know, collective 934 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 2: bargain agreement. But anyway, let's the standpoint in my man 935 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 2: is is Lebron, And okay, you can start anywhere you want, 936 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:19,760 Speaker 2: most guys start. 937 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 17: With Listen, listen. They gave in to Lebron. They gave it, 938 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 17: They got his son, they gave everything he wanted. I 939 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 17: believe the trade was made for him to leave La 940 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 17: in the in the next year because Lucas gonna find out. 941 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:40,280 Speaker 17: He's gonna find out in La if you win, people 942 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 17: love you, Okay, even if you don't. If you show 943 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 17: up and do your job and the Dodger showed up, 944 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 17: that's a winning town. So I think it's gonna change 945 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 17: the mindset of Luca. Get in shape, and if he 946 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 17: wins Lebron or with Lebron, he's gonna own the city. 947 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 17: He could never do that in Dallas, never, So I 948 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 17: think it was a great move. They're gonna do good 949 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 17: this year, but the movie is to push Lebron out. 950 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 17: I think that's that's what I think. 951 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 2: Well, I think what James said. It's it's more of 952 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 2: a long term decision. He's only twenty five. Finally, umberto 953 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 2: Eli Manning. 954 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 17: No Gilbert, Gilbertmberto. Regarding Eli Manning, the only times he 955 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 17: led the league was three times three years he led 956 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 17: the league in interceptions. 957 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 4: That's all he did. 958 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 17: He's an average quarterback. And I agree with you when 959 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 17: you mentioned it, because every time Eli Maney's conversation comes up, 960 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 17: I bring up in Plunket. 961 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 2: Well, look it's in Berto, great stuff. Appreciate you man. 962 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,360 Speaker 2: It's coming down to this. Manning is at Hall of 963 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,800 Speaker 2: Fame moments. You can't deny that won two super Bowls, 964 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 2: but maybe not a Hall of Fame career. But a 965 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 2: little later on the show, I'm gonna compare his numbers 966 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 2: to Joe name its Broadway, Joseph Hall, and he won 967 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,279 Speaker 2: one super Bowl, maybe the most important one of all time. 968 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 2: So there's a case for re life. But I respect 969 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 2: everybody's opinion. Blind Scott and Boston, welcome back in. 970 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 3: How are you? 971 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 18: Oh hey, Bernie.

He's a really good, good question. 973 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 18: I thought James had some really good points. That was 974 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 18: a great call by James. He was yelling so loud 975 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 18: he was on speakerphone though I have syndrome.

But I 1090 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 7: would like to get into the juicy here. Americans for 1091 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:32,080 Speaker 7: some reason have deep anesia because from what I remember, 1092 00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 7: two and a half weeks ago or less than that, 1093 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:40,360 Speaker 7: were we talking about how absolutely atrocious and unwatchable product 1094 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:44,359 Speaker 7: of what the NBA's turned into is. Yes, yes, somehow 1095 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 7: we're going to put Luka Doncic on the Lakers and 1096 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 7: all of a sudden watching and I'm sorry, that's a 1097 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 7: I mean that that's a big fat nothing burger with 1098 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 7: the side of coal onion rings, in my opinion. So 1099 00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,960 Speaker 7: I answer your question, are they going to win? I think? 1100 00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 7: Or are they going to succeed? 1101 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 4: I think. 1102 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,080 Speaker 7: I think they're going to succeed about as much as 1103 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:14,359 Speaker 7: when Anthony Davison and Lebron got there. They might win 1104 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 7: another Plastic Trophy and an AAU tournament. You know, if 1105 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:22,880 Speaker 7: there's another pandemic in three years, fire. 1106 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 3: That I thought you had Fireman. And by the way, 1107 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 3: you bring up an excellent point. 1108 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 2: In no way am I meant to imply that the 1109 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,360 Speaker 2: Luca acquisition is gonna, you know, all of a sudden 1110 00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 2: vault the NBA ratings through the roof. But I have 1111 00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:39,319 Speaker 2: to see what's gonna happen here. You see what I'm saying. 1112 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 2: It's like Tyson. 1113 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 3: Biting the year. I paid to watch it because I 1114 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:46,760 Speaker 3: didn't want to hear about it the water cooler on Monday. 1115 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:48,399 Speaker 3: So you got the last word, Tony. Go ahead. 1116 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 7: Oh no, I just I think at the end of 1117 00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 7: the day, the NBA has so many other problems. It 1118 00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 7: would sound exciting if brought that physicality. You can hit 1119 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 7: Luke and hurt him, but it's physical with the. 1120 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,279 Speaker 3: Rules, right, they got they got. 1121 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:10,400 Speaker 14: To change a lot of stuff up. 1122 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,399 Speaker 7: You got to get these out there playing Lee out 1123 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,359 Speaker 7: of the eighty two. At least nobody cares. Nobody cares 1124 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 7: for it, and I know it's a job too. But 1125 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:21,280 Speaker 7: outside of that, I love, I used to love the NBA. 1126 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 7: Nobody cares anymore.

Hooper Manning is 1164 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 4: more famous than him. 1165 00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 3: Okay, beat Brady twice? Style, he beat Brady twice. 1166 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:28,160 Speaker 4: Hey, listen, listen. Every dog out of their day. Some 1167 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 4: days to win, some days to lose. 1168 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 3: So fair enough. 1169 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:35,360 Speaker 2: And you see the best part about this segment is 1170 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 2: when people disagree, because when everybody agrees, it's boring. Right, 1171 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 2: So I said, I accept your point, so no holiday, 1172 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 2: hell with it, And Eli nah Man, let's get to 1173 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 2: Luke and Lebron. 1174 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 7: Let's get to that. 1175 00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 4: Because you know, the NBA, the nothing but league, is 1176 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 4: pretty much trying to figure out a way to entice 1177 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:57,080 Speaker 4: people to watch their game again and their product to get. 1178 00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 4: Is this for a championship team today? No, it is 1179 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 4: for a championship team next year? Maybe so, But this 1180 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:07,120 Speaker 4: is more of a money grab for this good old 1181 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,640 Speaker 4: city of Las Vegas because now the odds are in 1182 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,000 Speaker 4: the favor and the money is pouring in for the 1183 00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:15,880 Speaker 4: Lakers to make the playoffs, win the championship, and guess 1184 00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,560 Speaker 4: what when when they fall flat on their face, everybody's 1185 00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,000 Speaker 4: gonna be all, this wasn't working. This is this was 1186 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 4: the most horrible trade. Well, you couldn't coach a boy, 1187 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:26,480 Speaker 4: your boys getting up and down in the league. Now 1188 00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:29,440 Speaker 4: you got another young man that you could probably mentor slash, 1189 00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 4: coach and father. So yeah, he's gonna father him, he's 1190 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 4: gonna son him, he's gonna put him under his wing. 1191 00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 4: Are they gonna win anything? Nah? 1192 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 12: Not? 1193 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:37,440 Speaker 9: This here a bergon. 1194 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:40,400 Speaker 3: I'm an agreement, Kyle. I'm in agreement. This is strong stuff. 1195 00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 3: Appreciates Kyle. 1196 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 2: That's what we do to midnight hour, strong opinions. We 1197 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 2: don't have to always agree. But the thing that all 1198 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:52,720 Speaker 2: the callers do, I'm very appreciative. And Kyle just did You're. 1199 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 3: Gonna bring a take you're gonna, you know, you're gonna. 1200 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:57,960 Speaker 2: You're gonna have a reason behind why you say what 1201 00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 2: you said, not just because outstanding Greg in Texas. 1202 01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 3: You're up next. Your thoughts on these three subjects, Well. 1203 01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:06,880 Speaker 18: Here you go. 1204 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:12,240 Speaker 4: As far as Super Bowl Holiday, you know, forty years ago, 1205 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,800 Speaker 4: I've been off for it because Scott Noldwood's miss Fieldgal 1206 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:20,000 Speaker 4: didn't go wide right, it went wide high. I was 1207 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 4: laying down sideways. I need some help on that one. 1208 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 3: So I'm saying, no, no, right, get your ass up, 1209 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:34,360 Speaker 3: go to work. 1210 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:36,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right about that. I did. 1211 01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:38,960 Speaker 20: I didn't work very hard, but I was there. 1212 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 4: We knew it. As far as the ELI, you know, 1213 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 4: I think she'll get in and he should get in. 1214 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 7: Not a first time ballot. 1215 01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 4: He's actually his fame to me is based on three 1216 01:00:54,160 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 4: overthrown passes made by incredible athletic catches. I mean, I 1217 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 4: know it's more than that, but as far as his 1218 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:09,480 Speaker 4: two rings, that's where they came from. Now he'll get in, 1219 01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 4: so I don't really have a problem with that, right, Okay, 1220 01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:17,360 Speaker 4: Now getting to lu soon. As I'm from Dallas, I 1221 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:22,880 Speaker 4: might have an opinion. I've seen Luca play no defense 1222 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 4: for five years, six years, whatever it is. 1223 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:26,880 Speaker 3: That's right. 1224 01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:32,040 Speaker 4: I've seen him complain. I clean that up about every 1225 01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 4: call he doesn't get every time he dries okay, and 1226 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 4: he doesn't realize and somebody had to tell him, dude, 1227 01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 4: don't complain. You might get those calls later on. Okay. Now, 1228 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 4: what I want to know is what's going to happen 1229 01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:50,400 Speaker 4: with eight seconds left on the shot clock with Lebron 1230 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:53,280 Speaker 4: and Luca out there, Who's going to get them all? 1231 01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 8: Who's going to do what? 1232 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 2: Well, that's a superb point. And here's what I don't 1233 01:01:58,320 --> 01:01:59,960 Speaker 2: thanks a lot, Greg got standing stuff. 1234 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:01,560 Speaker 3: Here's the beauty. 1235 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 2: If the Lakers win the game, Lebron will take credit, 1236 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 2: and if the Lakers lose the game, Lebron wi blame Luca. 1237 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 3: That's what they'll do. That's that's my take tonight, folks. 1238 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 2: You've been a great audience. Let's go out to Kansas City. 1239 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 2: We're joined by Klutt in Kansas City, join the Frank 1240 01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:16,280 Speaker 2: Gott How. 1241 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 4: Are you man? 1242 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:18,400 Speaker 11: I'm doing pretty good? 1243 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:18,920 Speaker 18: How about you? 1244 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 3: Buddy good Sir? 1245 01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 4: Hey Man? 1246 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 11: Thank you? Of course, you know I always compliment you. 1247 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 11: I love your bumper music. It's the best anyway. 1248 01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,960 Speaker 3: Motown baby Motown. Is it go ahead? 1249 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 17: Why on? 1250 01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 11: Okay? As for Lebron and Luca, that's kind of easy 1251 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 11: for me because, look, man, I have no reason to 1252 01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:41,240 Speaker 11: be a Lebron fan other than the fact that two 1253 01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 11: of my team's titles, the Spurs, came off of him, 1254 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 11: So I'm good with him. 1255 01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:47,400 Speaker 3: But but. 1256 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 4: I do believe that it will If it works, it 1257 01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 4: will work because Luca. 1258 01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:59,280 Speaker 11: Grows up and Lebron's high basketball IQ. If it works, 1259 01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 11: it'll be because of that. But working will all be. 1260 01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:04,760 Speaker 11: That's going to be relative. It'll be relative to how 1261 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,240 Speaker 11: you see the game of basketball and it working together. 1262 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:12,920 Speaker 11: And as for the last caller, like the last caller 1263 01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,240 Speaker 11: said at the end of the game, who's gonna do 1264 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:17,640 Speaker 11: what If it's a shot, I won't look. If it's 1265 01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:20,320 Speaker 11: a drive to the basket, I won't Lebron, So I 1266 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 11: think that that's the way that will go. 1267 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:22,240 Speaker 4: Now. 1268 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 11: Off of that, As for I'm a small business owner, 1269 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:30,120 Speaker 11: so having a day off of my employees, I don't 1270 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:32,120 Speaker 11: have a problem with that. I do think it would 1271 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 11: really say something about America though, if you have the 1272 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:39,160 Speaker 11: day off Monday because a game went off at the 1273 01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,680 Speaker 11: times that it goes off during the day, Man, you 1274 01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:43,240 Speaker 11: can't make it to work the next day. 1275 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:44,560 Speaker 6: Shame on you for that. 1276 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:47,000 Speaker 18: So you know I don't care. 1277 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 11: Either neither here nor there. And when it comes to 1278 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 11: Eli Manning, the man's record is one seventeen and one seventeen. 1279 01:03:57,600 --> 01:04:01,440 Speaker 11: Nobody talks about him in the regular seat. His touching 1280 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 11: down to interception ratio over his time in the league 1281 01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 11: is pretty terrible if you look at that. 1282 01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:12,440 Speaker 21: I do believe that he should have a little section. 1283 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 11: Not him, but the New York Giants should have a 1284 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:20,840 Speaker 11: little section where it is mentioned that tom Brady's some 1285 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,440 Speaker 11: of two of his best teams lost to the New 1286 01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 11: York Giants. But to me, he's not a Hall of 1287 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:30,160 Speaker 11: Famer in any way, shape or form period. The only 1288 01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:32,800 Speaker 11: reason why it matters is to he be Tom Brady. 1289 01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 8: Number two, he played in New York and oh yeah. 1290 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 6: I'm sorry number three. 1291 01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:40,600 Speaker 11: He has this really specially loved You're nailing it. 1292 01:04:40,680 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 2: I can't disagree with any of your bullet points. I 1293 01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:48,120 Speaker 2: can't outstanding stuff. Cut appreciate you man, strong stuff, and 1294 01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:50,320 Speaker 2: Cut's pretty fair there. As an employer, I think he's 1295 01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 2: basically saying, look, if you're going to show up to 1296 01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:53,600 Speaker 2: work in half assed. 1297 01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:54,720 Speaker 3: You might as well take the day off. 1298 01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 2: You're gonna only one. I'll play ball. You got to 1299 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 2: go along to get along. That's a smart boss, Alan, 1300 01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:02,439 Speaker 2: And Saint Louis, you're up next. 1301 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:06,560 Speaker 10: Welcome sir, Well, good morning, good night, Bernie. 1302 01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 3: How you doing good sir? Thank you. 1303 01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 10: I don't really enjoy these callers. Everybody is actually making. 1304 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:15,520 Speaker 3: Good points the great calls Gurth of us. 1305 01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 10: Far as the super Bowl Monday being a holiday, I 1306 01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,400 Speaker 10: disagree with it. First of all, we got another holiday 1307 01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 10: in two weeks, we got President's Day. You know, if 1308 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 10: everything were perfect, the super Bowl would be the day 1309 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:31,080 Speaker 10: before President's Day. Then it would be an argument. But 1310 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:33,760 Speaker 10: the thing about it is, let's face it. What is 1311 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 10: the main reason people want Monday to be a holiday 1312 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:38,920 Speaker 10: because a lot of people can't get up and go 1313 01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:40,000 Speaker 10: to work the next morning. 1314 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 3: That's right. 1315 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:44,360 Speaker 10: If that's the case, make the day after Saint Patrick's 1316 01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:47,480 Speaker 10: Day a holiday too, well. 1317 01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 2: Saint Patty's Day is a de facto holiday, so they 1318 01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:52,080 Speaker 2: probably want to go back to back. 1319 01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,360 Speaker 3: But you bring up a great point. Okay, give me 1320 01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:56,840 Speaker 3: your thoughts on Lebron versus Luca. Is it going to work? 1321 01:05:56,840 --> 01:05:57,080 Speaker 21: Alan? 1322 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 10: I think it's going to work, because, let's face the 1323 01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 10: Luca trade was basically made for the postal Lebrin era. 1324 01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 10: Lucas twenty five years old, he's got thirty five, so 1325 01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 10: this is not a trade. 1326 01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:15,800 Speaker 2: Well, that's exactly right. But you're exactly right, and I 1327 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:17,320 Speaker 2: just want to get these other callers. But you make 1328 01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 2: an excellent point, which I completely agree with. But while 1329 01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 2: they are together on the floor, do you expect. 1330 01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 3: It to work? 1331 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:26,360 Speaker 10: I think it's going to work. The question is what 1332 01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:27,880 Speaker 10: are people versions of work? 1333 01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 14: You know? 1334 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:32,560 Speaker 2: My definitions is they don't get to the NBA finals, 1335 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:33,720 Speaker 2: they don't have to win it. But then to get 1336 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:34,960 Speaker 2: to the NBA finals, they didn't work. 1337 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:38,120 Speaker 10: But they're not better. They're not better than Oklahoma City. 1338 01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:40,320 Speaker 3: No, hell no, and thank you. 1339 01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:44,040 Speaker 10: So the thing about it is, regardless of what they do, 1340 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:47,000 Speaker 10: you know, they aren't going to be Oklahoma City, and 1341 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:50,320 Speaker 10: they're afraid of Denver. And as far as Luca and 1342 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,640 Speaker 10: will Lebrian being both ball dominant, didn't we hear that 1343 01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:57,280 Speaker 10: when Luca, when Kyrie Irvin came to Dallas, that they 1344 01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:59,000 Speaker 10: were both ball dominant and. 1345 01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 2: They were, yes, and they made it work. They made 1346 01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:03,240 Speaker 2: they at least got to the finals. And they were 1347 01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:06,600 Speaker 2: overmatched against against Boston. If we talked about Eli, I 1348 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:07,840 Speaker 2: want to make sure it gets to all the calls. 1349 01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:10,840 Speaker 2: You're doing great down but uh Eli. 1350 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:14,960 Speaker 10: And let's face it, if his name wasn't Manning, I 1351 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:17,480 Speaker 10: don't think people would be it be, this wouldn't be 1352 01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:20,760 Speaker 10: a conversation. He's going to get in, And I think 1353 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 10: there are a lot of voters who just feel that 1354 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:27,920 Speaker 10: being the first ballot Hall of Famer it's really special. 1355 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:30,840 Speaker 10: And I think that that there's a lot of voters 1356 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 10: are thinking, well, you know, he's going to get in, 1357 01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:36,880 Speaker 10: but he doesn't deserve the first first time ballot. And 1358 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 10: I think I think that's the main that's the main, 1359 01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:41,760 Speaker 10: just of the voters who didn't put him in, so 1360 01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 10: he's going to get in. So and I think the 1361 01:07:44,200 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 10: fact that he works for a major network, his brother 1362 01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:50,440 Speaker 10: works for the network, and his daddy is Archie. I 1363 01:07:50,560 --> 01:07:52,360 Speaker 10: think that's just the sentiment is a little different. 1364 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:53,960 Speaker 18: Take care Burnie, hey man. 1365 01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 2: That's that's great stuff. Man, Hang on and listen to 1366 01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 2: what I got to say, because you make a great point. 1367 01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:01,440 Speaker 2: Just to set the record straight, Michael Strahan didn't get 1368 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,640 Speaker 2: in the first ballot. Neither did Chris Carter or Terrell 1369 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 2: Owens or John Randall, lots of people have it. So 1370 01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:09,800 Speaker 2: just a conversational talking point. Excellent points. Stephen Kansas City, 1371 01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:10,560 Speaker 2: Here have next, buddy. 1372 01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:10,880 Speaker 3: What's up? 1373 01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 4: Ernie? 1374 01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 21: Happy super Bowl weekend? Betty? 1375 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:14,720 Speaker 3: Back at you man? 1376 01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:19,360 Speaker 21: Alrighty, We're gonna need a national holiday once Spag sets down, 1377 01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 21: Tae Kwon Barkley. I think a lot of people are 1378 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:26,559 Speaker 21: going to be surprised Spagnolo has the has the voodoo 1379 01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:29,559 Speaker 21: to shut him to at least I. 1380 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:32,519 Speaker 2: Bet the underud his on his rushing yards. So they're 1381 01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:36,759 Speaker 2: gonna need a holiday. Go to Eli Manning, uh whatever 1382 01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 2: or not. 1383 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:41,240 Speaker 21: I think Eli's a little bit overexposed. There's something to 1384 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:42,080 Speaker 21: the first. 1385 01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:43,520 Speaker 14: Ballot Hall of Fame statisfier. 1386 01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:45,360 Speaker 21: I'm fine with that. 1387 01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 4: You know. 1388 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:49,680 Speaker 21: The fascinating thing is. 1389 01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:52,120 Speaker 14: About uh Luca and Lebron. 1390 01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:55,639 Speaker 21: Lebron's going to be playing with someone who's a better 1391 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:57,680 Speaker 21: player than he is for the first time in his 1392 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:02,599 Speaker 21: career since he's played no high So I think it's 1393 01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:04,880 Speaker 21: I think it's gonna be I think it's gonna be great. 1394 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:09,280 Speaker 21: I think I think it's it's gonna be something very 1395 01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:13,400 Speaker 21: is to reference to previous caller. It's gonna be more 1396 01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:14,479 Speaker 21: it's gonna make. 1397 01:09:14,400 --> 01:09:16,600 Speaker 14: The NBA more more interesting. 1398 01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:20,920 Speaker 21: Whether I think Luca is going to get so much 1399 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 21: better as a player because he's gonna have to step 1400 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 21: up his step up his game. Lebron is extremely disciplined 1401 01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 21: with this. 1402 01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's fair. Lebron hold him mcconnabal. I 1403 01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 2: think Lebron will do his best to hold him acconnabal. 1404 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 4: Uh. 1405 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,680 Speaker 2: Great stuff is always Steve appreciates you.

Yep. 1424 01:10:35,960 --> 01:10:36,439 Speaker 4: John L. 1425 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:41,040 Speaker 8: Lay from Denver, well a one time Super Bowl owner, 1426 01:10:41,080 --> 01:10:43,200 Speaker 8: but had massive statistics. 1427 01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:48,439 Speaker 3: Twice. He went back to that before, not to correct you, 1428 01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:48,920 Speaker 3: but go ahead. 1429 01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 8: I apologize based on the fact that it looks like 1430 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:58,080 Speaker 8: the NFL goes through ebbs and flows of either statistics 1431 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,920 Speaker 8: over name or statistics in super bowls. 1432 01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:03,400 Speaker 12: It seems to be right now that. 1433 01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:06,600 Speaker 8: It's on the basis of one. They don't like the 1434 01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:10,760 Speaker 8: banning attitude that he had in the NFL. He's going 1435 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:12,960 Speaker 8: to get in, Well, what if it's a second or 1436 01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:15,479 Speaker 8: third ballot. Hey, I like to get in. If I 1437 01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 8: got in a second or third ballot, who cares I'm in? 1438 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 2: And that's actually pretty much the attitude. He's been very 1439 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:25,439 Speaker 2: pragmatic about it, just as you were. And by the way, 1440 01:11:25,479 --> 01:11:28,000 Speaker 2: to all the callers we've called standalone here Christopher, we 1441 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:32,360 Speaker 2: got two more topics. Look about one twenty am Pacific 1442 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,000 Speaker 2: time for twenty Eastern. I'm going to have some thoughts 1443 01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 2: in commentary on Eli Manning to give this some perspective 1444 01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:40,639 Speaker 2: and compare him to maybe one of the most famous 1445 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:44,040 Speaker 2: quarterbacks of all time. Who's in And you don't do 1446 01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:45,679 Speaker 2: agree with me, but I think it will make you think. 1447 01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 2: All right, what's your the second topic where you. 1448 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:48,400 Speaker 3: Want to go next? 1449 01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:54,439 Speaker 8: Bud Well, Let's talk about the NBA. Okay, is it 1450 01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:55,920 Speaker 8: going to improve the Lakers defense? 1451 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 3: No? 1452 01:11:57,640 --> 01:11:58,160 Speaker 15: Is it going to. 1453 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 8: Improve the Lakers ability to play a better team? 1454 01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:03,560 Speaker 14: No? 1455 01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:05,880 Speaker 3: So who cares? 1456 01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:09,200 Speaker 8: I haven't cared about the NBA since the nineties. There's 1457 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:14,080 Speaker 8: editions and the magic. I mean the Lakers and Boston. 1458 01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:19,240 Speaker 8: Nobody cares why because burning all they do is throw 1459 01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:19,799 Speaker 8: up threes. 1460 01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:21,240 Speaker 20: This isn't a league of. 1461 01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 8: Caring about the quality of the game. It's probably two pointers? 1462 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:26,679 Speaker 4: Can you shoot? 1463 01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:29,479 Speaker 8: And the result is too many. 1464 01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:30,760 Speaker 12: The fans don't care. 1465 01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:33,639 Speaker 8: They don't care until after Christmas. They don't care until 1466 01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:37,599 Speaker 8: the playoffs. Nobody cares. So what's going to make any difference. 1467 01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:41,160 Speaker 8: It's just trying to get the Lakers to be recognized 1468 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:43,920 Speaker 8: as something again, to have somebody watch. 1469 01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:45,559 Speaker 4: I don't care. 1470 01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:48,000 Speaker 8: I'm still not going to care, not until the fire. 1471 01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 2: Yes, I got you man, all right, the national holiday? 1472 01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,160 Speaker 2: Should the super Bowl Monday be a national holiday? 1473 01:12:57,560 --> 01:12:57,760 Speaker 4: Well? 1474 01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:00,719 Speaker 8: Do they give the holiday when we have the a tournament? 1475 01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 8: Nobody's working? 1476 01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:01,760 Speaker 4: Then? 1477 01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:02,400 Speaker 3: No? 1478 01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:08,080 Speaker 2: No, that's a good night, right right right, Yeah, that's fair. 1479 01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:13,759 Speaker 2: I appreciate very pragmatic Christopher, well articulated Brock and Alberta 1480 01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:15,240 Speaker 2: is back.

The reason why they want making a 1491 01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 22: holiday is because Patrick Mahomes has been winning every year 1492 01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:37,519 Speaker 22: and they think every year is gonna be the same result. 1493 01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:39,920 Speaker 22: And they haven't said this ever before, So I mean, 1494 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:41,400 Speaker 22: I think that's absolutely foolish. 1495 01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:44,160 Speaker 3: All right, did Helie man and get snubbed or not? 1496 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:45,720 Speaker 4: No? 1497 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:48,160 Speaker 22: I don't think he's Hall of Fame not right now. 1498 01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:51,360 Speaker 22: That's like saying that Kevin durantson the Goat Debate because 1499 01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:53,480 Speaker 22: he won two finals MVPs over Lebron. 1500 01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:57,519 Speaker 2: Really it's a fair that's a fair coaching point. And finally, 1501 01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 2: Luca and Lebron will it work? 1502 01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:05,080 Speaker 22: Yes, absolutely, I think absolutely because Luke is young and 1503 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 22: I think Lebron's going to train them how to become 1504 01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:08,960 Speaker 22: a great player. And think about the organization he's on. 1505 01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:10,760 Speaker 22: He's on the Los Angeles Lakers, one of the two 1506 01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:16,040 Speaker 22: great franchises in NBA history. And I mean, if if 1507 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,679 Speaker 22: Luke and Lebron can start winning, hey man, it's that's great. 1508 01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:19,240 Speaker 7: And it's right there. 1509 01:14:19,280 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 11: Brother. 1510 01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:24,240 Speaker 2: All right, thanks Brock, very concise, very direct.

Hold that thought, Brock, 1520 01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 2: and believe it or not, it's either next year or 1521 01:14:52,120 --> 01:14:52,639 Speaker 2: the year after. 1522 01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:54,960 Speaker 3: Check your calendar. It's easy to it's easy to google 1523 01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 3: because of the way the calendar ferret it out. 1524 01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:02,439 Speaker 2: There's going to be a super Bowl the day before 1525 01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:04,519 Speaker 2: presidents stay in the last couple of years, and I 1526 01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:06,479 Speaker 2: think Roger Goodell is hoping to go to the eighteenth 1527 01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:08,360 Speaker 2: game in a second bye week and then they will 1528 01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:09,160 Speaker 2: take care of itself. 1529 01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:10,840 Speaker 3: So you're onto something there. 1530 01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:14,120 Speaker 9: Well, or they could just start it later because with 1531 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:18,559 Speaker 9: the NCAA football being extended the way. 1532 01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,240 Speaker 13: It is, that way you have the National Championship Game 1533 01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:26,120 Speaker 13: for college football Durren wild Card weekend instead of divisional realms, 1534 01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:30,000 Speaker 13: and then you basically have the whole NFL playoffs to 1535 01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:30,680 Speaker 13: themselves too. 1536 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:36,799 Speaker 9: But anyway, yep, no, I don't think they got slubbed. 1537 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:39,680 Speaker 4: I think the. 1538 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:43,400 Speaker 9: The same reason why they're going to keep them pointing 1539 01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:47,320 Speaker 9: out for the same reason they'll keep ELI out. I 1540 01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:50,160 Speaker 9: have no idea, but whatever reason they have for keeping 1541 01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 9: them out is the reason they'll keep ELI out. 1542 01:15:54,520 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 2: Finally, Okay, fair enough, we'll just leave it there. I 1543 01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:00,479 Speaker 2: think eventually get in, but we'll leave it there. And 1544 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,639 Speaker 2: then finally, Luca and Lebron. You're down there in Texas. 1545 01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:03,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if you're a MAVs fan or not, 1546 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:05,559 Speaker 2: but do you think Luca and Lebron will work? 1547 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:07,439 Speaker 7: Yeah? 1548 01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:08,320 Speaker 9: I think they would work. 1549 01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:12,040 Speaker 13: I think something brought it up earlier, everybody thought that 1550 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:16,479 Speaker 13: Kyrie and Luca were going to be dynamite, and that 1551 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:17,920 Speaker 13: worked really really well. 1552 01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:18,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, And. 1553 01:16:21,200 --> 01:16:24,760 Speaker 9: I think Lebron wanted Luca to come and play. He's 1554 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:26,560 Speaker 9: been I'm rolling Luca to come play with him for 1555 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:30,599 Speaker 9: a long time, so there's already there to be conversation there. 1556 01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:35,040 Speaker 9: So as long as Lucas can stay on the court, 1557 01:16:35,640 --> 01:16:39,080 Speaker 9: I don't even think hisn or. 1558 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:40,800 Speaker 7: Whatever is going to be that big of a deal. 1559 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:42,880 Speaker 9: As long as you could just stay on the court 1560 01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:44,639 Speaker 9: and play, I think this works well. 1561 01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:48,880 Speaker 3: All right, great, great call, Bryce. Look, and that's a factor. 1562 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:53,280 Speaker 2: Luca hasn't played it since Christmas Day. He was supposed 1563 01:16:53,280 --> 01:16:54,080 Speaker 2: to play Saturday. 1564 01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:57,040 Speaker 3: He's not. Looks like Lebron's out too. He's got arrest 1565 01:16:57,120 --> 01:16:59,240 Speaker 3: at sore ankle when it did automatically gets sorry of 1566 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:01,640 Speaker 3: the pretty damn good at a night for Monday. So 1567 01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:06,680 Speaker 3: we'll see what happens. Jerome and Charleston, my man, you 1568 01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 3: have the final word on these three topics tonight. Where 1569 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:09,679 Speaker 3: would you like to begin? 1570 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:12,640 Speaker 12: As they say, if I could make it there, I 1571 01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:15,880 Speaker 12: could make it anywhere. And Eli man his career as 1572 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:21,080 Speaker 12: an NFL quarterback, he has three hundred and sixty five turnovers, 1573 01:17:21,520 --> 01:17:25,000 Speaker 12: two hundred and forty four interceptions, one hundred and twenty 1574 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:27,880 Speaker 12: five thumbs. Now you tell me you've got our Hall 1575 01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:32,040 Speaker 12: of Fame quarterback. I'm just so sure gave one those 1576 01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:36,559 Speaker 12: two both because defense in those two games played out fair. 1577 01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:38,800 Speaker 3: I accept that. I accept that. 1578 01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 2: I want to make sure you get down at two 1579 01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:43,320 Speaker 2: topics and so we don't bomb out here. Second topic, well, 1580 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:44,320 Speaker 2: Luke and Lebron work. 1581 01:17:45,120 --> 01:17:48,320 Speaker 12: Lebron James is one of the most unsharpest players in 1582 01:17:48,439 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 12: the history NBA, so he don have to run to 1583 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:53,599 Speaker 12: play off the ball more in order for this to work. 1584 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:56,320 Speaker 4: Okay, So that's the point. 1585 01:17:57,080 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 3: The last topic of Jerome Monday. Should Monday be a 1586 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 3: super Bowl? No, go ahead, No, no, no, no. 1587 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:10,120 Speaker 12: They've holidays for obermat some things that are very impactful 1588 01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:10,839 Speaker 12: on our country. 1589 01:18:11,479 --> 01:18:14,360 Speaker 8: For a super Bowl practical. 1590 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:15,719 Speaker 12: I'm a practical person. 1591 01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:21,799 Speaker 2: No, no, no, never, no no, no, jerm I appreciate 1592 01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:26,439 Speaker 2: you man well prepared, brought receipts. I'm aware of some 1593 01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:32,519 Speaker 2: of Eli Manning's less than savory statistics. But again, I 1594 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:35,680 Speaker 2: called the Hall of Fame, okay. And when you went 1595 01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 2: to Super Bowls and you beat Tom Brady twice and 1596 01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 2: he Jerome's not wrong. The defense had a hell of 1597 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:44,120 Speaker 2: a lot to do with that. So did Joe NAMA's 1598 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:47,160 Speaker 2: defense in Super Bowl three. So did you know Phil 1599 01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:50,200 Speaker 2: Simms defense, So did Tom Brady's defense. And make no mistake, 1600 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:53,479 Speaker 2: Terry Bradshaw's defense, He's not wrong. So this is the 1601 01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:56,240 Speaker 2: beauty of this segment. Is I like it when people 1602 01:18:56,280 --> 01:18:58,120 Speaker 2: don't always agree. Some people say why not make it 1603 01:18:58,160 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 2: a holiday? No, other people say no, he let it 1604 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,120 Speaker 2: can get snubb You ever say yes, he did. And 1605 01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:04,320 Speaker 2: then of course some people think Lebron and Luca will work. 1606 01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:07,040 Speaker 2: Other people don't. Every caller was outstanding. 1607 01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:10,600 Speaker 3: I appreciate it. You were prepared, you were thoughtful, and 1608 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:13,200 Speaker 3: you brought receipts. As I have said. 1609 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 2: So another outstanding edition of The Midnight Hour.

It's breeze three. 1632 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:34,759 Speaker 3: Alrighty, take it away, alrighty. 1633 01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:38,200 Speaker 16: So a few storylines, obviously revolving around the Super Bowl, 1634 01:20:38,360 --> 01:20:41,760 Speaker 16: have to do with either having like Chiefs fatigue or 1635 01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:44,040 Speaker 16: the and or the Chiefs being kind of like the 1636 01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:48,439 Speaker 16: villains in the NFL, which is hilarious but whatever. So 1637 01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:51,360 Speaker 16: the first so I thought, like, what are some villains 1638 01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:53,560 Speaker 16: in movies like who are the three best villains? So 1639 01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:56,360 Speaker 16: I started off with kind of chalk. I went Heath 1640 01:20:56,479 --> 01:21:01,080 Speaker 16: Ledger as a joker in the Dark Night. Obviously there 1641 01:21:01,160 --> 01:21:04,240 Speaker 16: was some drama revolving around that because he locked himself 1642 01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:06,720 Speaker 16: in a hotel room like a month before shooting and 1643 01:21:06,840 --> 01:21:09,720 Speaker 16: had a diary and he like really really got into 1644 01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:11,920 Speaker 16: the role and there was like some darkness kind of 1645 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:14,240 Speaker 16: revolving around that.

Uh, spectacular midnight 1840 01:30:42,200 --> 01:30:43,439 Speaker 3: hour tonight. Callers were great. 1841 01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:47,360 Speaker 2: One of the heavier topics, you know, the Lebron Lucas 1842 01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 2: not so much in the national holiday. Should Super Bowl 1843 01:30:51,200 --> 01:30:53,960 Speaker 2: Monday be a national holiday? But people really got into 1844 01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:55,760 Speaker 2: the ELI thing pretty good. And by the way, I 1845 01:30:55,800 --> 01:30:58,880 Speaker 2: got a couple tweets truck stot Fungus said ELI should 1846 01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:01,360 Speaker 2: be in the Hall of Fame currently ranks eleventh in completions, 1847 01:31:01,439 --> 01:31:04,320 Speaker 2: passing yards, and touchdowns, but his five hundred record of 1848 01:31:04,360 --> 01:31:06,960 Speaker 2: won seventeen and one seventeen isn't great. But he does 1849 01:31:07,040 --> 01:31:09,519 Speaker 2: have two Super Bowl wins under him Timm He said, no, 1850 01:31:09,600 --> 01:31:12,719 Speaker 2: he didn't get snubbed. Eli will make it eventually and rightfully, 1851 01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:17,040 Speaker 2: so Brady Bully. I want to give some perspective, and 1852 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:18,840 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go a little deep here, and I think 1853 01:31:19,160 --> 01:31:20,439 Speaker 2: I'm gonna cover a lot of ground. 1854 01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:22,960 Speaker 3: You may or may not agree, but I think I 1855 01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:23,960 Speaker 3: will provoke some thought. 1856 01:31:25,479 --> 01:31:29,720 Speaker 2: And there are some aspects to Eli's career and I 1857 01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:33,519 Speaker 2: think are noteworthy more than just the two Super Bowl wins. 1858 01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:36,080 Speaker 3: And I'm not mixed up. If his name was. 1859 01:31:37,800 --> 01:31:42,360 Speaker 2: Eli Kazinski or Eli Slovotnik, I don't know what you know. 1860 01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:44,760 Speaker 2: He might not curry the same favor if he didn't 1861 01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:47,200 Speaker 2: have the name Manning. But he did play in the 1862 01:31:47,280 --> 01:31:51,200 Speaker 2: National Football League sixteen years. He spent his entire career 1863 01:31:51,280 --> 01:31:53,280 Speaker 2: with one team, and while he was with the New 1864 01:31:53,360 --> 01:31:56,360 Speaker 2: York Giants. Believe it or not, Eli did send a 1865 01:31:56,479 --> 01:32:02,200 Speaker 2: lot of franchise records. His career completion percentage, yards per completion, 1866 01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:05,360 Speaker 2: yards per attempt very close to the league averages during 1867 01:32:05,400 --> 01:32:09,640 Speaker 2: his playing time, But his achievements in the postseason, particularly 1868 01:32:09,760 --> 01:32:13,120 Speaker 2: his leadership of the two Super Bowl wins against the 1869 01:32:13,280 --> 01:32:18,280 Speaker 2: heavily favored Patriots heavily favored significantly. 1870 01:32:17,760 --> 01:32:21,680 Speaker 3: Is the thing that bolstered his legacy. Now I get it. 1871 01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:25,240 Speaker 2: Manning started two hundred and thirty four NFL games. His 1872 01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:27,800 Speaker 2: record was one seventeen and one seventeen. 1873 01:32:28,840 --> 01:32:30,519 Speaker 3: Hold that thought. I'm gonna come back to it later. 1874 01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:33,519 Speaker 2: He also had a completion percentage of sixty one percent 1875 01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:36,719 Speaker 2: a passer rating of about eighty five. Those numbers don't 1876 01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:39,160 Speaker 2: jump off the page. But have you ever heard of 1877 01:32:39,200 --> 01:32:40,920 Speaker 2: a guy named Joe Namath who is in the Hall 1878 01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:44,360 Speaker 2: of Fame? What if I told you that Joe Namath 1879 01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:47,920 Speaker 2: was one game under five hundred in his NFL career. 1880 01:32:48,160 --> 01:32:50,400 Speaker 2: He was sixty two and sixty three, had four ties. 1881 01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:54,840 Speaker 2: His career completion percentage barely cracked fifty percent. It was 1882 01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:59,280 Speaker 2: fifty point one, and he threw more interceptions than touchdowns. 1883 01:32:59,840 --> 01:33:03,280 Speaker 2: He actually threw forty seven more interceptions in his career 1884 01:33:03,360 --> 01:33:05,880 Speaker 2: than touchdowns two hundred and twenty interceptions one hundred and 1885 01:33:05,920 --> 01:33:06,800 Speaker 2: seventy three touchdowns. 1886 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:09,759 Speaker 3: But he's Joe Willie name for a reason. He beat Baltimore. 1887 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:13,600 Speaker 2: They beat the Baltimore Colts, had seventeen point underdogs in 1888 01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:17,240 Speaker 2: Super Bowl three and really solidified the Merger Hall of 1889 01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:21,240 Speaker 2: Fame famous accomplishments. And by the way, before I go 1890 01:33:21,320 --> 01:33:24,960 Speaker 2: into further should we give a nod and winking a 1891 01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:29,040 Speaker 2: nod to the four people who made it into Canton 1892 01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:32,320 Speaker 2: and were inducted. They'll be inducted this summer. None of 1893 01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:36,920 Speaker 2: more quarterbacks, by the way, cornerback Eric Allen, who played 1894 01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:38,760 Speaker 2: for the Raiders, I think he retired like in two 1895 01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:42,840 Speaker 2: thousand and three, so he laited his turn. Defensive lineman 1896 01:33:43,200 --> 01:33:46,880 Speaker 2: Jared Allen, who spent many years as a fierce edge 1897 01:33:46,960 --> 01:33:50,960 Speaker 2: rusher for the Minnesota Vikings, who never won anything. Titaned 1898 01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:53,560 Speaker 2: Antonio Gates, who some said might have even been a 1899 01:33:53,600 --> 01:33:58,519 Speaker 2: better basketball player than football player. Was this spectacular, you know, 1900 01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:01,920 Speaker 2: tight end for the and Diego Chargers for years. And 1901 01:34:01,960 --> 01:34:04,200 Speaker 2: then a guy I've been waiting. I believe he deserved 1902 01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:07,160 Speaker 2: it for a long time. Sterling Sharp. I gotta say 1903 01:34:07,240 --> 01:34:09,960 Speaker 2: Sterling Sharp if you ever saw him in person, his 1904 01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:17,120 Speaker 2: rock running, his concentration, his ability to secure the ball, spectacular, hands, tough, smart. 1905 01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:19,639 Speaker 3: I don't know who I compare him to today. 1906 01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:22,240 Speaker 2: He's because he was so mechanically it's on of like 1907 01:34:22,320 --> 01:34:24,439 Speaker 2: five eleven, which means nothing. 1908 01:34:24,960 --> 01:34:26,080 Speaker 3: I can give you a list of a lot of 1909 01:34:26,120 --> 01:34:26,960 Speaker 3: big guys who suck. 1910 01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:31,000 Speaker 2: He wasn't big. He didn't suck. He was outstanding, just 1911 01:34:31,120 --> 01:34:33,960 Speaker 2: asked Brett Favre. Or actually he was before Brett Favre's time, 1912 01:34:35,120 --> 01:34:37,800 Speaker 2: you know, Don mccoski, whoever. The truth of the matter is, 1913 01:34:37,880 --> 01:34:42,759 Speaker 2: the guy was amazing. He was tremendous athlete, tremendous wide receiver, 1914 01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:47,920 Speaker 2: real student to position. Sterling Sharp's ol Shannon Sharp's older brother. 1915 01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:51,600 Speaker 2: So I believe Sterling Sharp is very well deserving and 1916 01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:54,320 Speaker 2: I'm glad he got in. All right, let's get back 1917 01:34:54,360 --> 01:34:58,200 Speaker 2: to Peyton Manning, because Peyton Manning Fordian slip. Let's get 1918 01:34:58,240 --> 01:35:01,240 Speaker 2: back to Eli Manning. You have to make a case 1919 01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 2: for him. And there's an old thing. If you have 1920 01:35:02,600 --> 01:35:06,120 Speaker 2: to make a case for somebody, well then people aren't 1921 01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:07,280 Speaker 2: sure if she'd be in the Hall of Fame. 1922 01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:13,080 Speaker 3: But he beat Tom Brady twice. That's not nothing, Okay. 1923 01:35:13,600 --> 01:35:16,479 Speaker 2: Two incredible playoff runs, two Super Bowl wins over the 1924 01:35:16,560 --> 01:35:21,920 Speaker 2: pats Oh also two Super Bowl MVPs, and I know 1925 01:35:22,360 --> 01:35:25,479 Speaker 2: one of the callers talked about his numbers weren't great. 1926 01:35:26,320 --> 01:35:28,000 Speaker 2: What if I told you Joe Nama didn't throw a 1927 01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:31,040 Speaker 2: touchdown pass in Super Bowl three, didn't even complete a 1928 01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:33,559 Speaker 2: pass in the fourth quarter of that game. But he's 1929 01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:36,240 Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame ELI, and he was in 1930 01:35:36,240 --> 01:35:39,840 Speaker 2: the MVP two Super Bowl MVPs. ELI had not won two. 1931 01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:42,080 Speaker 2: Some people try to pass him off, as you know 1932 01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:44,920 Speaker 2: print Dil Trent del for Brad Johnson one of those guys. 1933 01:35:45,400 --> 01:35:46,720 Speaker 3: You know, No, he won two. 1934 01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:50,519 Speaker 2: There are some other GUDI stats also. Believe it or not, 1935 01:35:50,680 --> 01:35:55,479 Speaker 2: Eli all top ten all time in passing yards. Fifty 1936 01:35:55,520 --> 01:36:00,080 Speaker 2: seven thousand passing yards can change fifty seven thousand. Go 1937 01:36:00,200 --> 01:36:01,720 Speaker 2: look at the list the guys who've thrown for more 1938 01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:05,920 Speaker 2: than fifty touchdown three hundred and sixty six and when 1939 01:36:05,960 --> 01:36:08,639 Speaker 2: he retired at the end of the twenty nineteen season. 1940 01:36:09,000 --> 01:36:10,840 Speaker 2: There's one thing I left out, but maybe it should 1941 01:36:10,840 --> 01:36:11,280 Speaker 2: have been put in. 1942 01:36:11,280 --> 01:36:11,920 Speaker 3: The top of the list. 1943 01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:16,639 Speaker 2: You heard me say that Eli Eli played sixteen years 1944 01:36:16,680 --> 01:36:18,559 Speaker 2: and offered the same team, which I think is admirable. 1945 01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:22,840 Speaker 2: Did miss a single game, not a single game in 1946 01:36:22,920 --> 01:36:26,760 Speaker 2: his career because of injury. That's something, okay, But the 1947 01:36:26,840 --> 01:36:31,040 Speaker 2: biggest obstacle, and this is this is for the people 1948 01:36:31,080 --> 01:36:31,639 Speaker 2: who voted. 1949 01:36:32,160 --> 01:36:37,200 Speaker 3: Okay, I get it. I followed Eli Manning's career closely, 1950 01:36:37,400 --> 01:36:39,320 Speaker 3: and I remember with his dad says he ain't going 1951 01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:40,000 Speaker 3: to San Diego. 1952 01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 2: And they pulled that deal off. They you know, they 1953 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:44,760 Speaker 2: pulled the same deal Jack Elway did for his son 1954 01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:47,040 Speaker 2: back in eighty three. They did it in two, you know, 1955 01:36:47,120 --> 01:36:49,800 Speaker 2: twenty years later. And I remember the draft was on 1956 01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:52,400 Speaker 2: a Saturday morning and he ended up going to New York. 1957 01:36:52,560 --> 01:36:54,519 Speaker 3: Okay, but no one. 1958 01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:56,800 Speaker 2: Ever really talked him about being the best player at 1959 01:36:56,840 --> 01:37:02,160 Speaker 2: his position anytime in his career. He did take down 1960 01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:07,320 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick and Tom Brady twice, but otherwise you might 1961 01:37:07,439 --> 01:37:08,800 Speaker 2: not say it was a Hall of Fame career. But 1962 01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:14,640 Speaker 2: you can't just summarily dismiss that stat. I would have 1963 01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:18,760 Speaker 2: voted for Manning. I'm just saying I would have he 1964 01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:21,960 Speaker 2: beat the patch twice. Give Eli Manning some credit. 1965 01:37:22,040 --> 01:37:25,879 Speaker 3: With two minute drives being named super Bowl each MVPAG 1966 01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:29,799 Speaker 3: time again all time, eleventh all time, and touchdown passes 1967 01:37:29,840 --> 01:37:34,639 Speaker 3: in yardage, that's a fairly convincing case for me. All right. 1968 01:37:35,800 --> 01:37:37,960 Speaker 3: I know that voters are always gonna say yeah, but 1969 01:37:38,040 --> 01:37:40,040 Speaker 3: he was never all proved or he was never a 1970 01:37:40,120 --> 01:37:44,560 Speaker 3: regular season MVP. And okay, well he was in the 1971 01:37:44,600 --> 01:37:49,120 Speaker 3: same air as Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, 1972 01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:50,000 Speaker 3: Brett Favre. 1973 01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:54,200 Speaker 2: Pretty good company right now. I also mentioned that I 1974 01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:59,200 Speaker 2: wouldn't voke the name of other quarterbacks. All right, you 1975 01:37:59,320 --> 01:38:01,280 Speaker 2: heard it, said one of the callers said it, and 1976 01:38:01,280 --> 01:38:03,920 Speaker 2: I've said it twice on the show. Eli's record was 1977 01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:07,320 Speaker 2: five hundred. He won one hundred and seventeen games, lost 1978 01:38:07,360 --> 01:38:10,400 Speaker 2: one hundred and seventeen games. He was exactly five hundred. 1979 01:38:11,320 --> 01:38:12,920 Speaker 2: But I know you all think Dan Fous was a 1980 01:38:12,960 --> 01:38:16,759 Speaker 2: tremendous quarterback. Never won a Super Bowl in his entire career. 1981 01:38:17,160 --> 01:38:20,840 Speaker 2: Dan Founce was only two games over five hundred. I'm 1982 01:38:20,880 --> 01:38:23,920 Speaker 2: a big Warren Moon fan. I think he was spectacular, 1983 01:38:25,160 --> 01:38:29,080 Speaker 2: never won a Super Bowl. Warren Moon was only one 1984 01:38:29,120 --> 01:38:33,719 Speaker 2: game over five hundred in his career. Neither Dan Fouts 1985 01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:37,360 Speaker 2: nor Warren Moon even made it to a Super Bowl, 1986 01:38:37,520 --> 01:38:40,880 Speaker 2: much less won a Super Bowl. In fact, Warren Moon 1987 01:38:40,960 --> 01:38:44,280 Speaker 2: never even made it to a conference championship game. Not 1988 01:38:44,439 --> 01:38:47,679 Speaker 2: only are Dan Founce and Warren Moon Hall of Famers. 1989 01:38:48,400 --> 01:38:51,920 Speaker 2: They were each first ballot Hall of Famers. So if 1990 01:38:51,960 --> 01:38:54,960 Speaker 2: you just want to make a statistics award, have at it. 1991 01:38:56,040 --> 01:39:00,240 Speaker 2: And again you can get hung up on the act 1992 01:39:00,280 --> 01:39:03,040 Speaker 2: at Manning was never mentioned as the best player at 1993 01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:06,719 Speaker 2: disposition pretty much for his entire career while he was playing. 1994 01:39:08,280 --> 01:39:11,600 Speaker 2: Guys like Peyton, were Brady Breeze. 1995 01:39:11,320 --> 01:39:14,640 Speaker 3: Farv, Aaron Rodgers, others. They were all playing during that 1996 01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:17,599 Speaker 3: era as well. Four time Pro Bowl selection but never 1997 01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:20,840 Speaker 3: an All Pro all right, And I know it doesn't 1998 01:39:20,880 --> 01:39:23,240 Speaker 3: help that even Tony Romo was snuck in an All 1999 01:39:23,240 --> 01:39:27,439 Speaker 3: Pro Award once. Cam Newton did once Carson Palmer. But 2000 01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:30,920 Speaker 3: you may have seen my tweet earlier. I think the 2001 01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:35,320 Speaker 3: All Pro Award is a stats award. The MVP is 2002 01:39:35,360 --> 01:39:40,040 Speaker 3: a story award. Now, Eli was never a regular season MVP, 2003 01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,719 Speaker 3: but he was a Super Bowl MVP twice. 2004 01:39:43,400 --> 01:39:43,760 Speaker 4: All Right. 2005 01:39:44,720 --> 01:39:48,600 Speaker 2: South pal Antonio, who's a Hall of Fame voter patriarch 2006 01:39:48,640 --> 01:39:52,880 Speaker 2: at ESPN, had some pretty interesting comments. And here's a 2007 01:39:52,920 --> 01:39:55,479 Speaker 2: guy that knows what it looks like inside the Ivory 2008 01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:57,719 Speaker 2: Tower when the voters get together, and he said, quote, 2009 01:39:57,720 --> 01:40:01,680 Speaker 2: there was a vigorous discussion about Eli's cannoncy. But to me, 2010 01:40:02,320 --> 01:40:04,439 Speaker 2: Eli was absolutely a first ballot guy. He has a 2011 01:40:04,520 --> 01:40:08,320 Speaker 2: lot of support to get into Canton, hopefully sooner rather 2012 01:40:08,439 --> 01:40:11,360 Speaker 2: than later. Adam Schefter waded and said, I certainly believe 2013 01:40:11,400 --> 01:40:14,760 Speaker 2: he deserves it based on what he accomplished to beat 2014 01:40:14,800 --> 01:40:18,000 Speaker 2: the Patriots once. Okay, maybe, but to beat them twice 2015 01:40:18,840 --> 01:40:22,080 Speaker 2: and including that undefeated team who was just trucking everybody. 2016 01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:25,240 Speaker 2: Ask Ballichick how he feels. I think it's pretty clear 2017 01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:28,839 Speaker 2: the time will Bewright Elile get in someday. 2018 01:40:29,600 --> 01:40:29,720 Speaker 11: Now. 2019 01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:32,479 Speaker 2: Just because Eli did not get in in his first 2020 01:40:32,520 --> 01:40:36,400 Speaker 2: go around doesn't mean he won't ultimately get in. As 2021 01:40:36,400 --> 01:40:38,800 Speaker 2: a matter of fact, I think the consensus among the 2022 01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:41,080 Speaker 2: voters was he's going to get in. 2023 01:40:41,640 --> 01:40:42,840 Speaker 3: They just didn't want to put him in on the 2024 01:40:42,880 --> 01:40:43,880 Speaker 3: first ballot. Hall of Famer. 2025 01:40:44,640 --> 01:40:46,760 Speaker 2: By the way, he has to wait a year and 2026 01:40:46,800 --> 01:40:51,719 Speaker 2: guess who's on the ballot next year. Drew Brees, fellow 2027 01:40:51,800 --> 01:40:57,080 Speaker 2: quarterback Philip Rivers, wide receiver laryer I Fitzgerald, Jason Witten. 2028 01:40:57,880 --> 01:41:02,320 Speaker 2: They're all eligible in ductees, and they're eligible for the 2029 01:41:02,360 --> 01:41:05,360 Speaker 2: first time, so you may see all of them get in. 2030 01:41:05,520 --> 01:41:05,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. 2031 01:41:06,400 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 2: You tell me if Drew Brees a first ballot Hall 2032 01:41:09,160 --> 01:41:11,439 Speaker 2: of Famer, maybe because of his numbers. Anyone won in 2033 01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:14,719 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, Philip vers, I can't say that. I cannot 2034 01:41:14,800 --> 01:41:15,400 Speaker 2: say that at all. 2035 01:41:15,439 --> 01:41:18,640 Speaker 3: And he didn't win. Larry Fitzgerald, Yeah, I think he got. 2036 01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:22,760 Speaker 3: Larry Fitzgerald reinvented the position from crying out loud. He 2037 01:41:22,880 --> 01:41:26,000 Speaker 3: made an instant impact from his amenity set foot in 2038 01:41:26,040 --> 01:41:28,320 Speaker 3: the league. Jason Witten. 2039 01:41:28,439 --> 01:41:31,240 Speaker 2: There'll be a debate, maybe maybe not, but that's who 2040 01:41:31,320 --> 01:41:35,599 Speaker 2: Eli will be competing against next year. It then begs 2041 01:41:35,680 --> 01:41:39,599 Speaker 2: the discussion whichever he People on our network say, look, 2042 01:41:39,600 --> 01:41:41,040 Speaker 2: you're either a Hall of Famer or you're not a 2043 01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:42,640 Speaker 2: Hall of Famer, whether you a first ballot or not, 2044 01:41:42,760 --> 01:41:46,519 Speaker 2: that's overrated. But I think there are factors that go 2045 01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:48,960 Speaker 2: into whether a voter is willing to give a first 2046 01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:55,640 Speaker 2: ballot inductee different treatment regarding regardless of whether he's just 2047 01:41:55,720 --> 01:41:58,960 Speaker 2: merely deserving of making the Hall of Fame or he 2048 01:41:59,439 --> 01:42:01,400 Speaker 2: is special. 2049 01:42:01,680 --> 01:42:01,960 Speaker 3: Okay. 2050 01:42:04,760 --> 01:42:07,559 Speaker 2: I think part of it is competition that you're up 2051 01:42:07,600 --> 01:42:10,840 Speaker 2: against that specific year that plays a part. They will 2052 01:42:10,920 --> 01:42:14,360 Speaker 2: only elect four or five, six, seven, maybe eight members 2053 01:42:14,400 --> 01:42:16,960 Speaker 2: each year, so there is a bit of a cutoff 2054 01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:21,120 Speaker 2: and sometimes you get involved in bottlenecks because there are 2055 01:42:21,160 --> 01:42:22,880 Speaker 2: too many players on the ballot. I don't know that'll 2056 01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:24,880 Speaker 2: be the case last year, and I can't say that 2057 01:42:24,920 --> 01:42:28,840 Speaker 2: would be the case this year. Jared Allen, Eric Allen, Fine, 2058 01:42:28,920 --> 01:42:31,080 Speaker 2: maybe they deserve to be in, but I wouldn't think 2059 01:42:31,120 --> 01:42:34,040 Speaker 2: he like, excuse me, it was blocked out because of that, 2060 01:42:36,120 --> 01:42:41,160 Speaker 2: just saying, all right, next year, you got an offensive lineman, 2061 01:42:41,200 --> 01:42:44,639 Speaker 2: you got a wide receiver, and you know, the truth 2062 01:42:44,680 --> 01:42:46,760 Speaker 2: of the matter is, it's not easy to get in 2063 01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:49,320 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame, period, although they do let a 2064 01:42:49,360 --> 01:42:53,880 Speaker 2: lot of NFL guys in. But Manning is not the 2065 01:42:53,960 --> 01:42:57,639 Speaker 2: first noteworthy star to miss out on being a first 2066 01:42:57,720 --> 01:42:58,240 Speaker 2: ballot Hall of. 2067 01:42:58,280 --> 01:43:02,719 Speaker 3: Famer's right hand. I don't think anybody could argue, period, 2068 01:43:03,439 --> 01:43:06,800 Speaker 3: but he's not a Hall of Famer. He wasn't a 2069 01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:10,360 Speaker 3: first ballot Hall of Famer, and he was the I 2070 01:43:10,479 --> 01:43:13,440 Speaker 3: believe he was the single season sack leader when he retired. 2071 01:43:14,120 --> 01:43:16,160 Speaker 2: He took him his second try in twenty fourteen, and 2072 01:43:16,240 --> 01:43:18,920 Speaker 2: he got in. Chris Carter, remember all he does is 2073 01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:22,000 Speaker 2: score touchdowns. You didn't get in in the first try. 2074 01:43:22,120 --> 01:43:25,719 Speaker 2: Took Terrell Owens forever to get in, and then defensive 2075 01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:29,120 Speaker 2: lineman John Randall, who was a badass for those Minnesota 2076 01:43:29,240 --> 01:43:32,200 Speaker 2: Vikings teams. He used to destroy the Lions back when 2077 01:43:32,200 --> 01:43:38,000 Speaker 2: I was covering the Lions alongside Jared Allen. Took him 2078 01:43:38,040 --> 01:43:38,640 Speaker 2: forever to get in. 2079 01:43:38,720 --> 01:43:39,240 Speaker 3: They had to wait. 2080 01:43:41,360 --> 01:43:46,000 Speaker 2: Another Manning comparison for Hall of Fame consideration, when you 2081 01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:51,480 Speaker 2: combine super Bowl rings, and perhaps we'll call it statistical. 2082 01:43:52,560 --> 01:43:56,760 Speaker 2: I don't want to see inconsistency, but statistical up and downedness, 2083 01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,760 Speaker 2: if I can invince that your word. He compares to 2084 01:44:01,000 --> 01:44:04,679 Speaker 2: another Raider quarterback who is in the Hall of Fame. 2085 01:44:06,360 --> 01:44:09,240 Speaker 2: I'm not talking about Jim Plunkett, who's the only other 2086 01:44:09,320 --> 01:44:11,599 Speaker 2: quarterback other than Patrick Mahomes is still playing. 2087 01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:14,920 Speaker 3: To win two Super Bowls but not be the Hall 2088 01:44:14,920 --> 01:44:19,160 Speaker 3: of Fame. So who am I comparing Manning to? Got 2089 01:44:19,200 --> 01:44:20,679 Speaker 3: the same number of Super Bowl rings? 2090 01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:26,759 Speaker 2: But maybe statistically didn't make you raise your eyebrow talking 2091 01:44:26,760 --> 01:44:32,200 Speaker 2: about the snake Kenny Stabler. Now, Kenny Stabler really had 2092 01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:34,679 Speaker 2: to wait a long time. As a matter of fact, 2093 01:44:34,760 --> 01:44:38,679 Speaker 2: Kenny Stabler was not even inducted to the Pro Football 2094 01:44:38,720 --> 01:44:43,320 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame until twenty sixteen, posthumously. After it all, 2095 01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:48,120 Speaker 2: he passed away department of redundacy department, and that required 2096 01:44:48,160 --> 01:44:51,320 Speaker 2: a senior committee selection after years of being passed over. 2097 01:44:52,280 --> 01:44:55,200 Speaker 2: And if anybody saw Kenny Stabler play, what a leader? 2098 01:44:55,280 --> 01:45:00,640 Speaker 2: What just the charisma, the style, the panache. He won 2099 01:45:00,720 --> 01:45:02,760 Speaker 2: two Super Bowls and look good doing it, even though 2100 01:45:03,360 --> 01:45:05,439 Speaker 2: and he planted it an era where quarterbacks didn't put 2101 01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:13,240 Speaker 2: up massive mass statistics, but he won twice. Okay, Belichick 2102 01:45:13,840 --> 01:45:16,080 Speaker 2: is Bill Belichick is also eligible for the first time 2103 01:45:16,479 --> 01:45:20,160 Speaker 2: next year at the Pro Football Hall of Fame. And 2104 01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:25,880 Speaker 2: it's my understanding that he weighed in on the recent 2105 01:45:25,920 --> 01:45:29,000 Speaker 2: Maning cast about this very subject. He said, quote, Eli, 2106 01:45:29,200 --> 01:45:31,439 Speaker 2: you don't look that good in a hoodie, but you 2107 01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:34,519 Speaker 2: will look great in a gold jacket. I'm sure that's 2108 01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:37,439 Speaker 2: going to happen, and you deserve it so much. That's 2109 01:45:37,600 --> 01:45:41,160 Speaker 2: graciously from Bill Belichick. Second wing as coach of all 2110 01:45:41,240 --> 01:45:46,120 Speaker 2: time not only went to what seven Super Bowls with 2111 01:45:46,320 --> 01:45:51,240 Speaker 2: Tom Brady, assisted Bill Parcells in winning too super bowls 2112 01:45:52,280 --> 01:45:54,559 Speaker 2: in eighty seven and ninety one. Bill Parcells never won 2113 01:45:54,600 --> 01:45:58,040 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl without Bill Belichick by his side. And 2114 01:45:58,720 --> 01:46:01,520 Speaker 2: if you get that kind of endorse from Bill Belichick, 2115 01:46:02,120 --> 01:46:03,800 Speaker 2: I think you're a good company. So do I think 2116 01:46:03,880 --> 01:46:07,880 Speaker 2: Eli will get in. Yes, was he snubbed as a 2117 01:46:07,920 --> 01:46:11,360 Speaker 2: first ballot Hall of Famer. It just depends on your perspective. 2118 01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:13,320 Speaker 3: And one of the earlier callers pointed out, this is 2119 01:46:13,360 --> 01:46:19,600 Speaker 3: a very a very subjective situation having to do with 2120 01:46:20,640 --> 01:46:23,000 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl or the Pro Football Hall of Fame. 2121 01:46:23,680 --> 01:46:27,400 Speaker 2: So in any way slice it. The voters have spoken. 2122 01:46:28,040 --> 01:46:32,519 Speaker 2: At least for the class of twenty twenty five. ELI 2123 01:46:32,720 --> 01:46:36,000 Speaker 2: will have to wait until next year. 2124 01:46:37,640 --> 01:46:38,120 Speaker 3: Coming up. 2125 01:46:39,360 --> 01:46:43,519 Speaker 2: Yes, it is a Super Bowl weekend, big time Super 2126 01:46:43,520 --> 01:46:47,080 Speaker 2: Bowl weekend. You know, it's amazing how much fanfare is 2127 01:46:47,160 --> 01:46:52,760 Speaker 2: now made over over the coin toss and the coin 2128 01:46:52,880 --> 01:46:57,679 Speaker 2: toss bet.

Of course, you can bet on 2163 01:48:32,840 --> 01:48:36,440 Speaker 2: it right and believe it or not some fine individual 2164 01:48:36,640 --> 01:48:37,920 Speaker 2: already at BETMGM bet. 2165 01:48:37,920 --> 01:48:42,080 Speaker 3: Five thousand on tails. How did all this happen? 2166 01:48:42,800 --> 01:48:47,200 Speaker 2: The Super Bowl coin toalk bet has actually a very 2167 01:48:47,400 --> 01:48:52,599 Speaker 2: interesting history. I think it all started on January twentieth, 2168 01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:57,280 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty five, now which significance Ronald Reagan was sworn 2169 01:48:57,360 --> 01:49:02,439 Speaker 2: in as president for his beginning of his second term, 2170 01:49:03,520 --> 01:49:08,839 Speaker 2: and a few hours later he was on TV flipping 2171 01:49:08,880 --> 01:49:13,439 Speaker 2: a coin before Super Bowl nineteen. That's the one where 2172 01:49:14,240 --> 01:49:18,840 Speaker 2: Joe Montana and the forty nine ers just completely rode 2173 01:49:19,120 --> 01:49:21,120 Speaker 2: Dan Marino, who would never get back to the Super Bowl, 2174 01:49:21,160 --> 01:49:24,240 Speaker 2: and the Miami Dolphins rode him like a stick horse. 2175 01:49:25,439 --> 01:49:29,680 Speaker 2: And I remember that matchup was very much ballyhooed, and 2176 01:49:30,320 --> 01:49:32,760 Speaker 2: there was a Pepsi commercial I think about a month later, 2177 01:49:32,840 --> 01:49:37,439 Speaker 2: where Dan Marino and Joe Montana converged upon a coke 2178 01:49:37,560 --> 01:49:43,479 Speaker 2: machine or pep PEPs machine and Montana reached into his 2179 01:49:43,560 --> 01:49:45,439 Speaker 2: pocket and said I got this one, and Marino says 2180 01:49:45,439 --> 01:49:47,479 Speaker 2: I got the next one. Okay, nice little plan. Words 2181 01:49:47,720 --> 01:49:50,599 Speaker 2: never happened, But I'll tell you what did happen. Ronald 2182 01:49:50,680 --> 01:49:54,920 Speaker 2: Reagan's coin flip came up tails, And if you ever 2183 01:49:55,040 --> 01:49:58,960 Speaker 2: visit the Reagan Library in southern California. Apparently they have 2184 01:49:59,080 --> 01:50:03,400 Speaker 2: a clip that's about ten minutes long that shows uh, 2185 01:50:03,920 --> 01:50:08,400 Speaker 2: the President preparing for the coin toss from the White House. 2186 01:50:08,920 --> 01:50:11,680 Speaker 2: Because it did it live on broadcast, well guess what 2187 01:50:11,960 --> 01:50:13,880 Speaker 2: it caught on like wildfire. 2188 01:50:15,040 --> 01:50:17,519 Speaker 3: A few years later. The NFL wanted to capitalize on this, 2189 01:50:17,560 --> 01:50:18,639 Speaker 3: because the NFL is all. 2190 01:50:18,560 --> 01:50:21,280 Speaker 2: About show business, and all they want to do is 2191 01:50:21,320 --> 01:50:24,720 Speaker 2: show business and you know, you know, maximize anything else 2192 01:50:24,880 --> 01:50:28,439 Speaker 2: they can. They tried to get NASA astronauts aboard their 2193 01:50:28,520 --> 01:50:34,560 Speaker 2: Discovery to flip the coin. Unfortunately, the plans were kiboshed. 2194 01:50:35,360 --> 01:50:38,880 Speaker 2: NASA aptly pointed out, how the hell's the coin gonna 2195 01:50:38,880 --> 01:50:41,439 Speaker 2: flip when you're up in space and it's weightless. The 2196 01:50:41,520 --> 01:50:43,840 Speaker 2: weightlessness of space would not allow you to flip a coin. 2197 01:50:44,680 --> 01:50:47,919 Speaker 2: But the astronauts instead did a demonstration during the pregame 2198 01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:51,240 Speaker 2: show where one of the Canadian astronauts held a coin 2199 01:50:51,320 --> 01:50:55,799 Speaker 2: as her crew members spun her backwards and they eventually 2200 01:50:55,880 --> 01:50:57,920 Speaker 2: flipped back the coin on Earth that it came up 2201 01:50:58,280 --> 01:50:59,120 Speaker 2: heads both times. 2202 01:50:59,160 --> 01:51:00,519 Speaker 3: It was, you know, get thing. 2203 01:51:01,560 --> 01:51:05,320 Speaker 2: Then you remember in Super Bowl thirteen George Hallis had 2204 01:51:05,360 --> 01:51:08,519 Speaker 2: a coin toss had a very unique twist because the 2205 01:51:08,600 --> 01:51:12,200 Speaker 2: bear's owner was asked to flip a coin, a gold coin, 2206 01:51:12,280 --> 01:51:16,280 Speaker 2: a collectible coin that he bought the year the league 2207 01:51:16,479 --> 01:51:20,360 Speaker 2: started that was worth three hundred and eighteen thousand dollars. 2208 01:51:21,280 --> 01:51:23,559 Speaker 2: He bought the coin back in nineteen twenty, the year 2209 01:51:23,920 --> 01:51:28,200 Speaker 2: the league started, and it landed on heads Lady Liberty 2210 01:51:28,280 --> 01:51:30,080 Speaker 2: facing up. He claimed the loser of the flip the 2211 01:51:30,120 --> 01:51:33,840 Speaker 2: Steelers would get the coin, but he actually he actually 2212 01:51:33,920 --> 01:51:34,120 Speaker 2: did it. 2213 01:51:34,240 --> 01:51:36,240 Speaker 3: He actually gave it to Jack Lambert for some reason. 2214 01:51:36,280 --> 01:51:40,479 Speaker 3: It's only worth three thousand bucks today. There is a. 2215 01:51:42,360 --> 01:51:48,920 Speaker 2: Story of Marie Lombardi, Vince Lombardi's widow. She claimed she 2216 01:51:49,040 --> 01:51:52,840 Speaker 2: had never flipped a coin before in her life, and 2217 01:51:52,960 --> 01:51:57,080 Speaker 2: she practiced during rehearsal, but when it came game time, 2218 01:51:57,680 --> 01:52:01,479 Speaker 2: went off without a hitch landed tails up, by the way. 2219 01:52:01,720 --> 01:52:04,640 Speaker 3: In nineteen eighty two, the first Super Bowl played in Detroit, 2220 01:52:05,920 --> 01:52:08,839 Speaker 3: Super Bowl sixteen in which again that guy Joe Montana 2221 01:52:09,479 --> 01:52:14,120 Speaker 3: and beat the Cincinnati Bengals, and I think it was 2222 01:52:14,200 --> 01:52:16,120 Speaker 3: twenty twenty to sixteen whatever. 2223 01:52:17,920 --> 01:52:20,439 Speaker 2: They did a coin toss about two weeks prior to 2224 01:52:20,560 --> 01:52:24,759 Speaker 2: the game to determine practice times inside the Pontiac silverdalm 2225 01:52:24,880 --> 01:52:27,760 Speaker 2: the Bengals won on tails, and they said, we want 2226 01:52:27,800 --> 01:52:28,880 Speaker 2: afternoon practices. 2227 01:52:29,560 --> 01:52:32,679 Speaker 3: The forty nine Ers, who well, they ended up winning 2228 01:52:32,720 --> 01:52:33,000 Speaker 3: the game. 2229 01:52:33,080 --> 01:52:36,599 Speaker 2: They got stuck with morning practices, which allegedly really ticked 2230 01:52:36,640 --> 01:52:39,519 Speaker 2: off their head coach Bill Walsh, who pointed out they'd 2231 01:52:39,560 --> 01:52:43,240 Speaker 2: be practicing at seven thirty am their time and getting 2232 01:52:43,320 --> 01:52:47,160 Speaker 2: up at what would be five am Pacific time. And 2233 01:52:47,280 --> 01:52:48,920 Speaker 2: prior to the game, all Super Bowls they had been 2234 01:52:48,920 --> 01:52:52,400 Speaker 2: played in warm weather cities and could practice outdoors simultaneously. 2235 01:52:53,160 --> 01:52:56,800 Speaker 2: By the way, the actual coin toss, also tales, was 2236 01:52:56,840 --> 01:52:58,639 Speaker 2: won by the forty nine ers as well, and they went. 2237 01:52:58,560 --> 01:52:59,240 Speaker 3: On to win the game. 2238 01:52:59,320 --> 01:53:02,240 Speaker 2: So the twoth of the matter is, as you can see, 2239 01:53:02,320 --> 01:53:05,360 Speaker 2: there's a little creativity, there's a little goofiness, there's a 2240 01:53:05,439 --> 01:53:11,000 Speaker 2: real attention brought to this coin flip toss. Now, for 2241 01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:15,760 Speaker 2: my money, the Super Bowl coin toss is a dumb bet. Yeah, 2242 01:53:15,840 --> 01:53:17,599 Speaker 2: there's a fifty to fifty chance you win. It's an 2243 01:53:17,600 --> 01:53:22,280 Speaker 2: independent trial. It even if you do choose correctly, you know, 2244 01:53:23,200 --> 01:53:25,479 Speaker 2: the sportsbooks still going to take their cut, even though 2245 01:53:25,520 --> 01:53:28,280 Speaker 2: the biggest minus one oh five instead of the usual 2246 01:53:28,360 --> 01:53:30,680 Speaker 2: one to ten. But you know why people like it 2247 01:53:31,320 --> 01:53:34,559 Speaker 2: because I've told you a thousand times. People don't get 2248 01:53:34,680 --> 01:53:37,680 Speaker 2: high winning the bet. They get high making the bet. 2249 01:53:38,280 --> 01:53:41,720 Speaker 2: Whenever someone bets, especially in the NFL, it feeds their 2250 01:53:41,800 --> 01:53:44,800 Speaker 2: competitive spirit, enhances of viewing, participation of. 2251 01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:49,240 Speaker 3: The game, and all that stuff. And so here you are. 2252 01:53:49,360 --> 01:53:50,760 Speaker 3: The game hasn't even kicked off yet. 2253 01:53:51,040 --> 01:53:55,639 Speaker 2: Right off the bat, you've got a bet and it's 2254 01:53:55,680 --> 01:53:58,680 Speaker 2: going to be settling about five seconds. And if you win, 2255 01:53:59,200 --> 01:54:02,320 Speaker 2: most books will grade that right away if you can 2256 01:54:02,320 --> 01:54:05,240 Speaker 2: collect your bet as the game is starting, So you're 2257 01:54:05,280 --> 01:54:07,920 Speaker 2: a winner or a loser heading into the game. 2258 01:54:08,320 --> 01:54:13,320 Speaker 3: All right, it's not a great bet. In twenty twenty two, they. 2259 01:54:13,320 --> 01:54:17,519 Speaker 2: Had some staff members, i believe from a sports reporting 2260 01:54:17,560 --> 01:54:21,679 Speaker 2: agency flip a replica coin seventeen hundred and fifty one times. 2261 01:54:22,439 --> 01:54:27,000 Speaker 2: You're not gonna believe it. It came up heads eight 2262 01:54:27,120 --> 01:54:29,080 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty two times and tails eight hundred and 2263 01:54:29,120 --> 01:54:32,160 Speaker 2: sixty nine. That's fifty point four percent to forty nine 2264 01:54:32,200 --> 01:54:34,959 Speaker 2: point six percent. So you don't get a statistical advantage. 2265 01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:36,320 Speaker 2: You may think you do, but you don't. 2266 01:54:37,440 --> 01:54:38,920 Speaker 3: But people do it. Okay. 2267 01:54:39,080 --> 01:54:42,000 Speaker 2: It's just a way to kick the game off, get 2268 01:54:42,080 --> 01:54:45,480 Speaker 2: the party started, and for my money, you know, And 2269 01:54:45,520 --> 01:54:46,080 Speaker 2: it's fun. 2270 01:54:46,200 --> 01:54:48,360 Speaker 3: Okay, it's fun. It's a fun bet. 2271 01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:51,920 Speaker 2: If you win it, you're off and running. Uh and 2272 01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:55,120 Speaker 2: and it's it's it's caught on for a reason. And 2273 01:54:55,240 --> 01:54:58,040 Speaker 2: there's a reason it's caught on because people enjoy it. 2274 01:54:59,280 --> 01:54:59,880 Speaker 3: People have come. 2275 01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:02,600 Speaker 2: The NFL has come to make I think, quite a 2276 01:55:03,520 --> 01:55:05,360 Speaker 2: quite a spectacle of it. And it works because we 2277 01:55:05,400 --> 01:55:07,200 Speaker 2: all pay attention. You just kind of want to see 2278 01:55:07,920 --> 01:55:10,760 Speaker 2: not only by the way, now, can you bet on 2279 01:55:10,920 --> 01:55:12,440 Speaker 2: whether or not it'll come up heads or tails? You 2280 01:55:12,480 --> 01:55:16,640 Speaker 2: can bet which team wins the bet? Right, all right, 2281 01:55:16,960 --> 01:55:20,320 Speaker 2: let me dive into some Super Bowl pre thoughts that 2282 01:55:20,400 --> 01:55:23,200 Speaker 2: I'll get into heavily on my Saturday night show. 2283 01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:28,080 Speaker 3: And I want to be fully transparent. I have already 2284 01:55:28,360 --> 01:55:32,560 Speaker 3: fired on the Kansas City Chiefs. They have proven to. 2285 01:55:32,600 --> 01:55:37,840 Speaker 2: Me time and time again, no matter the situation, no 2286 01:55:37,960 --> 01:55:41,120 Speaker 2: matter the opponent, even if their opponent is a better team. 2287 01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:44,200 Speaker 2: And what we hear is that Philadelphia from an analytics perspective, 2288 01:55:45,080 --> 01:55:48,040 Speaker 2: is a better team statistically, a better team. 2289 01:55:48,480 --> 01:55:50,600 Speaker 3: Has it mattered? Oh, by the way, they don't have Patrick. 2290 01:55:50,360 --> 01:55:56,800 Speaker 2: Mahomes, which Seaman's Patrick Mahomes. Holmes has championship DNA. Andy 2291 01:55:56,920 --> 01:56:02,240 Speaker 2: Reid has Championship DNA. He's offensive genius, an offensive mastermind. 2292 01:56:02,520 --> 01:56:05,640 Speaker 2: Steve Spagnolo is the only defensive coordinator in the history 2293 01:56:05,640 --> 01:56:09,720 Speaker 2: of the National Football League to win for Super Bowls. 2294 01:56:10,320 --> 01:56:14,280 Speaker 2: He's incredible, and I think you'll do some crazy things 2295 01:56:14,320 --> 01:56:18,760 Speaker 2: on Sunday to perhaps confuse Philadelphia. At least at times, 2296 01:56:18,920 --> 01:56:22,000 Speaker 2: you can make an argument that Steve Spagnolo, not Bill Belichick. 2297 01:56:22,320 --> 01:56:26,080 Speaker 2: Steve Spagnolo is the best defensive qua coordinator. 2298 01:56:25,680 --> 01:56:26,120 Speaker 3: Of all time. 2299 01:56:26,760 --> 01:56:29,280 Speaker 2: I didn't even mention Travis Kelcey. He had a Hall 2300 01:56:29,320 --> 01:56:31,400 Speaker 2: of Fame coach, a Hall of Fame quarterback, a Hall 2301 01:56:31,440 --> 01:56:37,400 Speaker 2: of Fame tight end Championship DNA, and I'm back in 2302 01:56:37,440 --> 01:56:39,840 Speaker 2: a quarterback has already won this damn game three times. 2303 01:56:40,560 --> 01:56:42,400 Speaker 2: And when the heat gets hot, it's hard to breathe 2304 01:56:42,440 --> 01:56:45,200 Speaker 2: in these high leverage moments you've seen. 2305 01:56:45,600 --> 01:56:47,880 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson hasn't done it. Josh Allen hasn't done it. 2306 01:56:48,000 --> 01:56:51,280 Speaker 2: No one's done it like the Malmes not. I'll give 2307 01:56:51,320 --> 01:56:53,640 Speaker 2: it to Brady, but Mahomes, he's not done yet. All Right, 2308 01:56:54,600 --> 01:56:58,040 Speaker 2: Kansas City continuously plays its best football when it matters most, 2309 01:56:58,960 --> 01:57:01,480 Speaker 2: when the situation demands greatness. 2310 01:57:01,560 --> 01:57:03,840 Speaker 3: Can Kansas City be great? Yes? They are, and it. 2311 01:57:03,880 --> 01:57:07,560 Speaker 2: Starts with Mahomes, who's now recorded seven playoff starts where 2312 01:57:07,600 --> 01:57:11,680 Speaker 2: he's averaged an EPA of zero point five are better, 2313 01:57:11,720 --> 01:57:13,360 Speaker 2: which is more than double the amount of any other 2314 01:57:13,480 --> 01:57:17,520 Speaker 2: quarterback in NFL history. If you bet against the Chiefs, 2315 01:57:18,640 --> 01:57:22,280 Speaker 2: good luck. Now, it's not guaranteed they got to. 2316 01:57:22,240 --> 01:57:24,960 Speaker 3: Play the game. But the truth of the matter is, 2317 01:57:24,960 --> 01:57:28,480 Speaker 3: isn't it true that the Chiefs just scored a flip 2318 01:57:28,560 --> 01:57:28,960 Speaker 3: a switch? 2319 01:57:29,720 --> 01:57:33,200 Speaker 2: When it's the postseason? I can't make a case while 2320 01:57:33,280 --> 01:57:37,480 Speaker 2: that won't happen Sunday in New Orleans. One key matchup 2321 01:57:37,520 --> 01:57:42,280 Speaker 2: to watch back to the aforementioned Steve Spagnola Eagles running 2322 01:57:42,320 --> 01:57:46,840 Speaker 2: back Saquon Barkley versus the Chiefs defense, particularly defensive tackle 2323 01:57:46,920 --> 01:57:47,560 Speaker 2: Chris Jones. 2324 01:57:48,400 --> 01:57:50,320 Speaker 3: Kansas City truly caught a break, but they. 2325 01:57:50,240 --> 01:57:52,880 Speaker 2: Took advantage of it when, for whatever reason, we're three 2326 01:57:52,880 --> 01:57:56,360 Speaker 2: and a half minutes to go in Buffalo, they decided 2327 01:57:56,360 --> 01:57:58,480 Speaker 2: to neglect James Cook on a critical drive in the 2328 01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:02,000 Speaker 2: AFC Championship game. Cook was averaging almost seven yards of 2329 01:58:02,040 --> 01:58:04,560 Speaker 2: carry that day. Now the Chiefs really have to worry 2330 01:58:04,560 --> 01:58:07,320 Speaker 2: about Barkley. He's averaged one hundred and forty eight rushing 2331 01:58:07,400 --> 01:58:10,600 Speaker 2: yards in the past three playoff games. Barkley has the speed, 2332 01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:13,320 Speaker 2: the power to turn a two to three yard round 2333 01:58:13,360 --> 01:58:16,520 Speaker 2: and do an explosive play. But here's the thing, gaining 2334 01:58:16,600 --> 01:58:19,040 Speaker 2: extra yards against his bag Nola defense will be tough 2335 01:58:19,640 --> 01:58:22,880 Speaker 2: against this most fundamentally sound defense in the league. Chris 2336 01:58:23,000 --> 01:58:25,800 Speaker 2: Jones will do his job and they'll make it difficult 2337 01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:29,560 Speaker 2: for them to block for Saquon Barkley, just the way 2338 01:58:29,600 --> 01:58:32,480 Speaker 2: they did against Buffalo when it mattered most, even though 2339 01:58:32,640 --> 01:58:34,400 Speaker 2: I think Buffalo made a mistake in the end, but 2340 01:58:34,480 --> 01:58:35,840 Speaker 2: the Chiefs still took advantage of it. 2341 01:58:36,440 --> 01:58:37,960 Speaker 3: So there you have it. I like the Chiefs. We'll 2342 01:58:37,960 --> 01:58:39,480 Speaker 3: talk about more Saturday night. It's going to do it 2343 01:58:39,520 --> 01:58:42,240 Speaker 3: for the Bernie Fraddle Show. Keep it locked up next 2344 01:58:42,760 --> 01:58:44,240 Speaker 3: The Fellas on Fox Sports Radio.
