Speaker 4:Hello and welcome to Sports Broves Episode 23. Today we discussed our first million dollar parlay. Walk us through Maybe it's still alive, maybe it's still not. And we dissect the conference finals, the second rounds of both the NHL and NBA playoffs, and the NFL has dropped their schedule. We make our buck's predictions of how the schedule is going to go. Tune in to find out. Here we go.
Speaker 2:Loryford, what are you doing, man? You can't make anything right now.
Speaker 1:Oh, like Al Porford Oh.
Speaker 4:God, I will say this Al Porford I saw.
Speaker 1:can that be the cold open? What are you?
Speaker 2:reacting to Oh my gosh, it's so flying, i didn't realize this. It's only 81-83 with four minutes to go. This has been a terrible case. Scoring game.
Speaker 1:No one has made anything in this game. You've been scoring your top scorer or has won for 14?
Speaker 2:Oh, no, that was a big one, has he?
Speaker 4:still not taken a shot since then. A lot almost had a little tippy poo. Let's go.
Speaker 1:Andrew, I think you're like 15 seconds, 20 seconds in front of me because Tatum just hit the third Andrew's.
Speaker 4:I just always know Andrew's 15 to 20 seconds ahead of us whenever we're watching anything.
Speaker 1:Well, it's usually watching the end in person.
Speaker 4:He's in person or we're in person. He's celebrating at home. He's ahead of us.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh guys. Tatum has just hit it, He's hit fire, He's caught fire. Right now, The what 2 for 16?.
Speaker 3:I knew that this was going to happen. He's always going to dog in them.
Speaker 2:Got to dog in them. Maxi, with terrible close out, come on, bro, classic Kentucky move.
Speaker 4:Oh, my gosh Tatum is 3 for 16. 2 for 2, since he called him out. Oh gosh, Kane's almost scored 2.
Speaker 3:And the Kane's they're bench is shooting 50%.
Speaker 4:ECF Better than 50%.
Speaker 2:Yeah, wow, hey. This is why they got Brogdon for games like this, because he can give on.
Speaker 4:Yeah, brogdon's good 20 points off the bench. This is a good point card. He was good at Virginia, that's right. Went to Virginia. Good job Go.
Speaker 3:Kass, I'm sure this is a stupid question, but we do have the NHL finals in our parley right, we do Uh-oh.
Speaker 2:I'll play it with the devils. Should we be over right now?
Speaker 4:Should we break down the parley now? Should we just break it down? Center recording.
Speaker 2:Chris, you should wait until let's just wait until after these games. Then you could be like guys it was the Celtics after the Celtics lose And the parley is already busted.
Speaker 4:Can you imagine if we did something like that where, let's just say hypothetically, the NBA finals was the first?
Speaker 2:leg. What happened? Maxi's made it As soon as I said. Good things about Maxi. Now he's like air balling threes and stuff.
Speaker 4:I looked up and it was a commercial.
Speaker 2:How far behind are you guys?
Speaker 3:Andrew does. Maxi just missed the three. for me The two TVs.
Speaker 4:Andrew's got, like the supers, souped up internet or something.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, Andrew, if you see something happen, just wait like 15 seconds and then react to it.
Speaker 2:Here's the setup I got the bar still guys down there So I could watch their reaction. the hockey game and then the NBA game.
Speaker 4:Damn, that's sick. Yes, you too. How much baseball you can put in there in the summer, i don't know.
Speaker 2:All right, yeah, raise, roll the Yankees again. Dominate them Eight to two.
Speaker 4:Eight to two In New York. That was good to see Tampa. Oh yeah, in New York.
Speaker 3:This is a four game series, right Yeah?
Speaker 2:Yeah, big series. I mean gosh, if they could win, they could sweep or win three or three of these four. they're going to have such a commanding lead over them in division.
Speaker 1:I mean, the division is insane.
Speaker 2:Like literally the entire AL East is better than the entire AL Central. Like if any team from the East was in the Central, they'd be winning that division.
Speaker 3:Yankees are in last place and they're what Like a game above 500 or 500? Yeah, I don't know but they suck Shoot.
Speaker 2:Dallas already scored. They're up 1-0. If Dallas wins, they advance right. This is a Yes.
Speaker 4:No, i think it would make it 3-2. Or is it tied? Is it 2-2? Oh no, yeah, it is 2-2. Oh, it is 2-2. Yeah, right, yeah, okay, they would just be a 3-2 going back to Seattle. I hope it goes 7. Yeah.
Speaker 3:This stuff because the basketball series are five games right now in it. Hockey series are all three or four.
Speaker 4:Oh yeah, Because the first round they were doing every other night for hockey, but now they're spreading out a little bit of the round and doing what I think more so like with the NBA is doing where it's not every other night. Is that right, Is it?
Speaker 2:Well, you don't want to. You don't want to run or get eliminated that quickly. You got to. You know. Space them out. Let the, let the Leafs experience more of the playoffs here.
Speaker 4:Yeah, so I've been listening to a Toronto podcast and dude, they were, they've been so funny when they went down 3-0. And then I just listened to the one today about when they made it 3-1 and they believe again. They're like, oh, if we could just win, we could win game five. We're just one away, and then we're just one. I was like oh, this is going to be so funny when they lose.
Speaker 2:Dude, they might be the most goal-able fan base in all of sports. They believe that they are that close to a championship at all times. They think it'd be down 3-0 and when one game on the road and think that, hey, we're back in this, like it's going to happen.
Speaker 4:Yeah, andrew, who do you like to score in this this overtime? Just for just for bragging rights on the podcast, i'm going to go. So Jarvis for the Hurricanes.
Speaker 2:No, it's Sebastian. No, you're right, you say no.
Speaker 4:No, not him. I guess No, no, jarvis really Yeah, I would score to Gitch. That was up 2-0.
Speaker 2:Two-0 already.
Speaker 3:Jeez, it's a nice run for.
Speaker 4:Seattle. I'm just hoping one if not both of Yanni Gord and Pallott can advance. It's not good for him Yeah.
Speaker 3:Luke Hughes, getting this goal would be, or one with the odds Could be, a Luke Hughes shot and a Jack Hughes default.
Speaker 2:Oh, my gosh Tatum. Tatum got that dog at him. dude, he is taking this game from Billy right now.
Speaker 4:Ever since Ramos said he was a 1 for 14.
Speaker 1:Do you remember when we told you to wait 15 seconds, sorry, remember the instructions. you got to wait.
Speaker 4:Remember how many times we've had this conversation with Andrew about hey, can you wait? and then the event happens And he's like oh Sorry, hey, remember when we just talked about that? Oh yeah, you just need. whenever you sit down to watch TV, you just need to hit sit pause, wait 15 seconds and then hit play. Yeah, 20. Maybe 30, so you can see how it feels from the other end.
Speaker 3:Yeah, It's so funny, in a matter of like 10 minutes, believe fans have gone from we're going to the conference finals to we might lose in seven.
Speaker 1:Definitely we got to lose in seven. Right, There's no way they win game seven in Boston.
Speaker 4:No, chance no.
Speaker 3:Less.
Speaker 4:Oh my gosh, i have to set up for the commercial.
Speaker 1:This is a week of self-laced.
Speaker 2:Oh wow, not like that Uh, oh, wait, wait, wait, keri Wan is in the power play. Yeah, they put up. The devils are on the power play.
Speaker 3:Yeah, they're going to win the series on a delay of game. Power play goal No way.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they changed the challenge man. I told you Sebastian.
Speaker 3:Ajo, did you bet it? I mean, caroline is not exactly lethal on the power play. You didn't tell me to bet that, you didn't list anyone?
Speaker 2:Yes, it's Sebastian Ajo.
Speaker 4:He's about to score right now. Oh, i didn't hear you. I wonder about that Burnsy, burnsy with a slider. All right, i meant a plus plus a thousand. You bet it Yeah.
Speaker 2:Okay, let's see it. I can't believe it. Oh my god.
Speaker 3:Jason Tateb again.
Speaker 2:Oh gosh, obviously I'm just kidding. No, he almost made that one I saw.
Speaker 4:Chelsea is minus 600 to finish in the bottom 10. Wow, easy money.
Speaker 2:Holy crap, that's the crowd shots of these 76ers fans is hilarious. Right now They're just beside themselves. They can't believe it, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:I wonder is this better for them than losing in the finals, like every other professional sport that they've done this year At least? then you don't have as much hope.
Speaker 2:Yes, Yeah, yeah, i mean, and they didn't just lose both those championships, they were up big in both of them. What they had a 14 point lead in the Super Bowl and then they were up three games, 10 points Super Bowl. They won two games, i think, in the.
Speaker 1:World Series. Chris. Yeah, that's right. You can confirm that?
Speaker 4:Yeah, that's what I was going to say, but I wanted to give you the opportunity to answer first.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 4:Okay, it would be. My baseball notebook is over here and I have my basketball notebook, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, i got you.
Speaker 1:Definitely be worse, but uh.
Speaker 3:Celtics to lose at home in game seven than tonight. right, oh yeah, but these really, really.
Speaker 4:I have a basketball question Jason Tatum's tattoos Are those new, or have they always been that way, like coming out of his shoulder?
Speaker 1:That's. uh, he had them last year. Okay, thank you. That's more of a tattoo question than a basketball question, though It just depends on the way you look at it, it's tattooed on a basketball player, one of the best. Um, there's no way a Boston team loses a game seven at home. Right, That's what happens.
Speaker 4:They would never do that, especially in 2019. They would never do that in a game, seven at home, okay Yeah.
Speaker 2:Has a Boston team ever lost a game seven at home?
Speaker 4:No, yeah, they lost to the Blues. Stanley could cut final Wow.
Speaker 2:That was. That was a game seven too.
Speaker 1:Didn't they lose game seven at home this year? The Bruins, yes, yeah.
Speaker 4:Oh, that's right.
Speaker 2:The Bruins Yeah.
Speaker 4:That was a game six. I was just talking to the puck and baseball and everything.
Speaker 1:Jeez, that might my math might be wrong, though. So if there's anyone from Boston that we know that, we can ask, just to make sure, because I don't, you know, I don't want to slander our Boston team for no reason. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Honestly, i feel like the Bruins are very good, for no reason. Oh, who was it? Oh ho, that was. Oh, ho, wasn't it.
Speaker 4:They're going to score in 10 seconds.
Speaker 3:Count it down. Count it down.
Speaker 4:Who scored? Definitely Deflection. I did not get the Oh ho bet in. It was buffering, so he probably scored.
Speaker 2:I don't know if it was him. It looked like he took the shot. I can't, I couldn't say Sorry for my reaction. No, that was off the power play.
Speaker 3:Florida won against the Devils.
Speaker 4:Yeah, carolina won the top Thoughts. Carolina is elite.
Speaker 2:They might win it all. Chris, i asked you that like a month ago and you're like no way they're, they're without their best player.
Speaker 4:Well yeah, they're without Cockney and Schmench to cough They are not healthy. If they had those two guys, they would be very good, they're still a very good hockey team. They can absolutely be Florida. Yeah, that, donovan. They will be my pick to be in the final. I think they'll be.
Speaker 2:Okay, Chris, you can tell us now. Did you have the devils in the parlay?
Speaker 4:Verbal meme of the Russell Westbrook peering over my shoulder trying to build another parlay real quick. I mean I can say, i mean I can go through the parlay real quick. I mean I can say who the NHL Pick was, but I can't say who who picked it could be anyone.
Speaker 3:We should poker face right now once you reveal. We should go poker face when you reveal the picks.
Speaker 4:Yeah, if you can't if you can't do it, go up camera.
Speaker 2:He's off camera time But we're gonna do picks first I will say the, the handshake line after a playoff hockey series, one of the best, coolest things to sports.
Speaker 3:Yeah, those guys are bigger than I am the thing.
Speaker 1:I would. Yeah, i can't imagine a thing I would less be in the mood to do than that after losing exactly to end a playoff series, how's? it, not a fight at one of those, every single series.
Speaker 2:I mean, that's not to bring it back to the burrins, but can you imagine the burns and that handshake line That was to suck.
Speaker 4:There was that one instance. It was like it was like seven years ago the Boston lost and Milan Lucius Like I'm gonna kill you, remember that, and he's like I'm gonna kill you.
Speaker 1:That is awesome.
Speaker 4:All right, so we it's eight picks. some of us had one pick in here, some of some of us had two picks. Okay, so first we have the World championship hockey of Canada winning that way. What is that?
Speaker 3:We say Finland tomorrow morning.
Speaker 4:It's the, it's the world championships for the world championship. It's every. I think it's every year. They do it every year.
Speaker 2:Well, it's just like amateurs.
Speaker 4:Yeah, i'm not an inch old. It's amateurs and people who are not in the playoffs. So the lightning actually have a. Nick Perbix and Mikey he's a lot are on the USA team.
Speaker 1:You know, nobody on the no, nobody on the Bruins could be on there, right, because as president strokey winner, you're automatically not able to get so far in the playoffs, or do they?
Speaker 2:There's no way they made plans to you, right, romas, because they thought they'd be in the playoffs.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they already had it booked. Yeah, yeah, Okay.
Speaker 2:What so? what is that and when is that? It starts tomorrow, Oh it starts tomorrow.
Speaker 4:Okay, yeah, so probably it'll probably last, i don't know, a few weeks Interesting.
Speaker 2:Why wouldn't they wait till after the Stanley Cup is over? I guess I would eat into the season. They're off season too much.
Speaker 4:Yeah, i think you get into the issue though, where, if you wait until then and then you do the tournament, it gives them a little to know Like off season for themselves, because they would just start training camp a month later probably.
Speaker 2:I would assume.
Speaker 4:Okay, that's probably why I got you, but the NHL is weird about letting their players play in the world stage During NHL season. It's like NHL is king, so they can't play in the Olympics or anything, which sucks.
Speaker 2:I thought they did let him play in the Olympics and they took a break. I don't know, not this past Olympics, because this passing was weird.
Speaker 4:I haven't watched the Olympics in a while.
Speaker 2:I feel like oh yeah, I mean this past winter Olympics and I think because they, because they had they postponed the summer Olympics of 2020 to 2021 and then they turned around, had the winter Olympics in 2022. So they were within like six months each other.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, there was like a January of 2022.
Speaker 4:Yeah, all right. So next we have a Champions League winner of Riamadrid Riamadrid winning the. Champions League What not man city? Apparently not, apparently. whoever chose this did not choose man city as listed.
Speaker 2:We have chosen Riamadrid, but I thought man cities like the Tourist League good and Champions League, yeah, yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 4:Win that? Yeah, no, go ahead because you seem very supportive of our pick side.
Speaker 1:Yeah, good, a lot of, a lot of reverse jinx.
Speaker 2:I like that. No, i mean, yeah, reverse, you guys are the football experts, but then then man city usually dominate when it comes to Champions League. That's the good thing.
Speaker 4:Can you look up how many Champions League trophies that they have?
Speaker 2:I'm sure it's a lot right. They have a ton of trophies over there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it would be, zero right.
Speaker 2:Give your that squad.
Speaker 1:There's no way it would be zero.
Speaker 2:I got you? Hold on, let me count them all right, how many trophies they got. I mean, it's, it's all. Hold on, hold on them right.
Speaker 1:I'm seeing that Arsenal and Manchester City have the same amount of champions league trophies. That can't be right. That's a good title, right Cuz our arsonals are both historic clubs and it says they both have zero.
Speaker 3:Are they like? oh, i was gonna say, are they tied for like a billion or something?
Speaker 1:There's gotta be some sort of mistake, because those are the top two teams in England. in that order, right, it's Arsenal and then Manchester City, so you would think that that would also be the order for yeah, yeah, this is weird, that's weird.
Speaker 2:Okay, so Real Madrid is 14 and still strong. Liverpool six, manu three, chelsea two.
Speaker 1:Well, it's certainly there. They're better than Chelsea, right? So they surely have more European trophies than Chelsea.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah. So if they ever matched up, if they ever like, hypothetically matched up in a Champions League Matchup, or let's just say final, man City would have definitely won that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and if Chelsea played Arsenal in a European finals, maybe Europa League or something like that Arsenal would probably win that too, right Cuz historically they're the bigger club.
Speaker 4:Wait. Sorry, i can't, sir. I was trying to listen and type at the same time. I apologize, but I was trying to find Champions League, arsenal web pages, and it's just it's only 2017. That can't be right.
Speaker 2:What something happened in 2006, right Arsenal? Did they win Champions League in 2006?
Speaker 1:Let's see now on my end Updated yet Well, at least they'll win the Premier League this year. To prove all those doubters wrong jokes on Slendering Arsenal, because they're winning the Premier League this year right, right, so they're gonna get some trophies at least right.
Speaker 4:speaking of trophies, when is the? When is the FA Cup? have they? have they played the semifinals yet, or no?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think it's United and City in the final. I think usually the finals like the last weekend of May. Yeah, like the 27th maybe yeah, something like that, cuz I know the Champions League finals June 10th or something like that. I think it's like June 3rd June, 3rd Man United yeah, friday weekend Oh.
Speaker 2:Oh, June 3rd is the FA Cup final, fa Cup final.
Speaker 3:Why is an arsenal in that, i thought I'm trying to find arsenals game.
Speaker 1:Do you think they? maybe they opt it out? Oh, maybe, maybe the team that wins the Premier League isn't allowed to play for the FA Cup final.
Speaker 3:Okay, that's probably sad a couple guys because they were too busy worried about Champions League, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, when is Arsenal in the Champions League again?
Speaker 4:I don't. That's what I don't know something about my internet, because every time I search it I can't get anything. Since 2017. Okay, well, i'm chicken. Europa League now on YouTube. Oh, that's feet don't, never mind. Don't see them in Europa League either. So what? Maybe search Europa trophy? okay, maybe that'll filter the results and probably just they will spam they lost something called sporting.
Speaker 1:Oh Well, that's your answer, right, because that's that must be everyone who's ever played the sport. Yeah, i mean, if you're scored, oh, you must be. There must be some sort of.
Speaker 4:Yeah, so there's no no harm, no foul, that's fine. Yeah just give me trophy, then if I count that as a win, yeah, that's a top 12 finish in the Europa League.
Speaker 1:Not a lot of teams and say that Chelsea didn't finish top 12 in the Europa League. No they even make it to the top, to the top 12.
Speaker 4:Yeah, we're the non-touching.
Speaker 1:Yeah, didn't even make it into the Europa League at all.
Speaker 4:Made it further than Belgium as well.
Speaker 1:It's at the bar nearer. Is that officially what the bar is?
Speaker 4:it's just Belgium. Damn, i miss World Cup, talk 2026 is gonna be a.
Speaker 2:His outlaw think what was that for that for the World?
Speaker 4:Cup. No, i guess it's a, and I don't know you, someone else can probably speak on it better than I can but I guess like a loyalty program or yeah, i think it's just the US Men's team in general.
Speaker 1:Is it like a sure there's?
Speaker 4:some sort of what is it?
Speaker 1:I think it's a man club like the. You like that. You know the main club, like the people that sit down, that like the, the bleacher sheets or whatever. I think it's like the main fan club. Do they get, like tickets to games, priority access and something better thing? Oh, oh, although you would think priority for the US Men's team would be just not having to go to the game. Maybe that's what it is, you don't. You don't have to watch the team or something like that. Do you get?
Speaker 4:to manage that.
Speaker 1:I would do that just so that I could not pick Christian Poulos. I can get a mention in his next book.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's like tears to it. You can like set the lineup, make half-time adjustments, put in subs. Rankings of manager for the fan club.
Speaker 3:Why would they call the group that supports us national team the outlaws?
Speaker 1:That's a great question. We should get an outlaw on the show. You don't? you can probably. There's probably like six or seven of them, right, we could probably get one of them.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, the World Cup is gonna be sick, though.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we should start now, like for the pot, we should just start coverage for it now. Now predict the groups. We'd be good. We'd be way, way ahead of the game. Can you imagine if we just previewed the World Cup for the next three years?
Speaker 4:Just guitar gonna win their game and like no matter What happens, you just tailored it to how would back?
Speaker 1:to the World Cup Just cover every single nation.
Speaker 3:That'd be so funny. From now until the World Cup, like we just everybody covers, like the specific countries, national team, like other week.
Speaker 2:Be a hilarious. We start breaking down like Trinidad and Chevegos.
Speaker 3:One of your rules. This guy's left back, but he's also a part-time truck driver.
Speaker 1:I, sadden, talked with him at the coffee shop, so he works out.
Speaker 3:Hit him up on Facebook.
Speaker 1:What a missed opportunity to not put a 2026 World Cup winner in the parlay.
Speaker 4:That was gonna be one of my picks. It's the 2026, just so I know what's it gonna be.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the reason why we lose the original million dollar parlay we put together back when I I was in Nashville We remember we bet that was the last leg was the 20. yeah, we had Germany, we had Germany, germany. Yeah, that's who we picked up.
Speaker 4:Yeah, which that? that looked good, that was pretty good. Yeah, yeah, we ready for our third pick of the parlay.
Speaker 2:Yeah, wait. So what were the first? the first two is Canada and the hot canada in the world championships starts tomorrow, man.
Speaker 4:Yeah, and then Rio Madrid to win Champions.
Speaker 2:League. Okay, and right now Rio Madrid is tied on aggregate with city right tied 1-1.
Speaker 4:Go into city. So you just gotta, it's got a mix. We had city. I think it's next week the next week.
Speaker 2:Yes, yeah, yeah I think that's why I'm sorry. Oh wait, they're going to city.
Speaker 4:Yeah, cuz they just play that Madrid. I think okay okay. Yeah, yep, we'll nervous now.
Speaker 2:I mean.
Speaker 4:That's why that's why city is the favorite. We're going after a million dollars to be got. Take a little risk here.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's not the nine hundred thousand dollar parlay.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I thought all the risk was a Florida win, the national championship, that was all the risk that was, even money wasn't you imagine what that number is.
Speaker 3:That's gotta be the million dollar parlay right there. I was.
Speaker 2:Chris reads it all. So, guys, it's Florida win next year.
Speaker 3:Parlay. What's the box I'm parlayed with the Iseman, you don't have a money to pay out that. I Think we're still alive, though, based on those two, yeah all right, third leg.
Speaker 4:Third, we're gonna go. Nhl the Stanley.
Speaker 3:Cup winner.
Speaker 4:Oh geez, the Dallas stars Yeah he got me a good point.
Speaker 2:They're up to oh right now in the first period. Now watch them collapse and blow this lead. Now we finish recording this podcast, they're gonna lose. Yeah, whoever picked that Dallas star. So is that based on? I mean, let's break it down Just as it's on. Go like that's a little bit of hockey preview, but are they the healthiest like? are they the most formidable champion at this point?
Speaker 4:I personally think that they will beat Seattle, which means they will be in the final four, and I believe that they will probably play Edmonton in the Western Conference finals. And The Dallas is Built more For the playoffs compared to Edmonton and Dallas has the way better goalie. So I'm taking Dallas in that matchup And I'm like okay, so that puts them in the final. And if they're in the final, anything can happen. I mean, they were just in the final a few years ago when the lightning beat. That's yeah.
Speaker 2:So if you're talking about yeah, that's a good point. Of the teams that remain, they are probably the most playoff experienced, right them? in Carolina, i'd say yeah, but Carolina has this Carolina team They just made it. The is advanced to each Eastern Conference finals, but they haven't been that far yet. Don't they always lose the second round, right Yeah?
Speaker 3:Yeah, i think that's a good point because if you're looking at the teams who are gonna make it to the conference finals, i think that the stars have one of the easier paths Seattle, yep, you could pick maybe the Oilers or Vegas.
Speaker 4:But it's hard to say who's gonna?
Speaker 3:even win that playoff series right now.
Speaker 4:Yeah, well, vegas team starting goalie got hurt, was it? What's in Barrow? something like that? Yeah, so he's out. So they're gonna be on the back of goalie. Yeah, and I'm just like I was out, i think so it looked like it was. I don't know if he's day-to-day or what, but they just Know it was something bad.
Speaker 3:He like pushed off on.
Speaker 4:He like pushed off on the left leg and he just went down Oh wow, yeah, but yeah, ottinger for the Dallas Stars the goalie. He is awesome, he is very good. He's like he is a goalie 21 22 games He's lit Yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, i think that I think that the West wins the Stanley Cup and if you're looking at that, i think Dallas is most likely to get there at this point. Okay.
Speaker 4:Yeah, of our 10 cent bet, we do have a cash out of one cent. So we're doing, we're doing pretty well. There's Lisa cash out, yeah okay, i'll make another part. We want to just do it now, then All right, so the next ones we have picked we have baseball, nfl, college football, nba and college basketball.
Speaker 3:We promise, who'd you pick for MLB?
Speaker 1:Yeah, time it backs What.
Speaker 2:Wait, chris, did you. Did you say Wimbledon? I did not say Wimbledon.
Speaker 4:No, what the heck, dude? I sent you a lock for Wimbledon. Yeah, it wouldn't fit, it took it over a million and it wouldn't let me do it.
Speaker 2:Oh.
Speaker 1:The app was like we can't afford to pay you out this much.
Speaker 2:This would totally kill us but we're All right.
Speaker 4:So which one we want next want to go? We go our NBA team. Who's gonna win the finals?
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah. that's what we can kind of talk in the at the NBA finals winner that Denver Nuggets.
Speaker 4:Okay, yeah, like that Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know. I just don't know they can be filling. Yeah, I guess I.
Speaker 2:Mean. Let's let's recap what happened last night. He had Anthony Davis leave on a wheelchair because he got hit in the head.
Speaker 4:Oh, is that what happened? I saw, Got clobbered in the head.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, clobber. Yeah it was. It was aggressive About maybe the. Are they reviewing that for suspension? potentially should be gruesome. Yeah, and then apparently he was had. He was a wheeled out of the arena in a wheelchair, which he's probably praying that. There's not video evidence of that.
Speaker 3:Why would that even happen? I don't understand that part. I don't know.
Speaker 1:But There's a, i guess, if he just wasn't, if he was just like woozy or whatever, yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't know, but so Lakers that's going to, is that that's not going to six games? It's going back to LA? Yeah, okay, yeah, i think, i think that's going seven.
Speaker 1:I think the war, i don't know. The warriors suck on the road, oh yeah they're gonna need like actual game six clay if they want to win. I am because clay has been terrible. This series He shot like three of 15 again last night has been awful, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:Let's see what happens though, because they, the Warriors, came out and they'd like switch the starting line up. So they put Gary Peyton out in the starting lineup and that like switched the matchup So that Vanderbilt couldn't really then as much time wants death. So I'm sure that the Lakers will have another change that they make to try to like combat that. So I think it will just depend that first quarter is where that game has been decided over the last few games. So if the Warriors yeah, another hot start, then who knows, but I don't know, my gut says the Lakers win it.
Speaker 4:I agree, i have a. is that game tonight, lakers? Now it's the Warriors. No, phoenix, oh Phoenix.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're playing out. They're playing after Phoenix Denver. They're starting at one hand. Yeah.
Speaker 4:Like I don't hate it.
Speaker 1:Denver pick. They're like they're a good team. Jamal is, and You know, get you both together really good, but it's just like, specifically with the NBA, one is the last time a team that hadn't made it past like the first or second round Went all the way and won the championship. It's just like that experience is so insanely valuable.
Speaker 2:So I don't know, i think it'll come down to comes out of the.
Speaker 1:To me It depends on who comes out of the east. If the Sixers come out of the east, then yeah sure, i could see the the Nuggets winning a series against them, but if, like the Celtics or the heat that's, you know it's already been there come out, then we're about the next. Nobody's really.
Speaker 3:Next really I like that clown with the military squad.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Honestly, watching them play, at times you're like is this a playoff team or they actually a playoff?
Speaker 1:caliber basketball thing. It's J Lynn Brunson and a bunch of bombs. It's wild.
Speaker 4:Yeah, julius Randall eight, he has his moments.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I covered him when I said a bunch of bombs.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's, he's not See. This is the problem with tips, though, like his teams, just he grinds them all year and all year in the playoffs.
Speaker 4:That's exactly what Chris was saying right before we record. Yeah, yeah, i just. I just got tired of seeing all my NBA takes Get installed, and so I figured I'd let people know right?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think right now I'll strike that. Corey, i was just gonna say, if you, if you think about it, it's like name a team who has a better shot of winning the title over Denver, like way that Boston's playing right now. You probably wouldn't name unless you think that. Philly is just that good. Yeah, then you think of, like the script of the NBA and how it goes. You probably wouldn't pick Denver.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly That's my, that's my only concern with Denver. I'd like to see them win, because it would be cool to see a Young squad when it would be kind of like the box right where the team that the player stuck through Ends up winning a championship with them after winning MVP's and stuff. So it would be cool. But I don't know how much faith I have in the nuggets yet, because I mean, if you look at their their playoff runs so far, like they played Tiber Wolves, who are one of the worst playoff teams ever to come out of the West, and then a Phoenix team that hasn't been together for all of three months. So like I guess we'll see how they get tested.
Speaker 1:Anthony Davis versus Joe Kitch would be a lot of fun, assuming that Anthony Davis is healthy for the next round and the the leakage go through. Warriors nuggets would be an interesting one too, because they don't really have anyone that can guard Joe Kitch, but the nuggets also don't really have anyone that could slow down Seth, so that would be a lot of fun as well. I think the conference championship will be fun either way, and I guess there's a chance that Phoenix comes through. I think they're kind of like the nicks, though, where nobody's expecting them to come through.
Speaker 3:Have you guys seen Jokic's, jokic's, jokic's numbers in the playoffs? It's stupid, it's insane. Like he's basically dropping a triple double with like 30 points every game?
Speaker 4:Yeah, is a Deandre Aiden and Chris Paul both out for game five? Yeah, neither were playing. how about that stat?
Speaker 2:Okay yeah, so they're gonna lose great.
Speaker 4:Why are they still favored?
Speaker 2:I mean, it's happening right now. They're winning, they are literally playing the game as we speak.
Speaker 4:Oh, I meant like favorite as in like pregame, I didn't mean like right now.
Speaker 2:Oh because they're at home and it's when I go home for them.
Speaker 1:And because it's really hard to to close out the series on the. This is game five, right, it's really hard when you're up three, one that just close up the series immediately.
Speaker 2:No, this is game six. Right, yeah, game six.
Speaker 1:Yeah Yeah, this is game six, that's right. Cuz Phoenix won both at home.
Speaker 2:Yeah yeah yeah, and I think what that means is that we were great If we could potentially have three game sevens on Sunday right.
Speaker 1:Would they all be on Sunday? would they not have this?
Speaker 2:yeah, there's no game no games for on Saturday.
Speaker 1:They're all it would be Suns nugget seven the day before Mother's Day.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, for all the moms out there three game sevens. It's gonna be Celtics 76ers And then, if the Warriors can win tomorrow, it'll be Lakers Warriors. Three game sevens, i think the Lakers went tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Oh really, that would be assuming the Phoenix won this game too, right?
Speaker 4:No, phoenix is gonna lose tonight. Oh, okay, i have no idea.
Speaker 3:The score is and for sub one, but Kevin Durant is.
Speaker 2:See, that's the problem with the Suns is Kevin Durant and Devin Booker? both have to be like nuclear, like they have to be on fire for the Suns to win. Which Booker's? been but yeah, yeah, Katie's been Inconsistent. I mean, they just don't have the supporting cast. That's why I think the nuggets are probably the I mean nuggets probably the best well-rounded team. They're probably the deepest team.
Speaker 1:Yeah, definitely the deepest It's. I guess it's just one of those things were in the NBA playoffs It's. Is it being the deepest, most important or being the team that has you know those guys? That's more important and I don't know that I would take Joe kitchen Jamal over Healthy ad in LeBron.
Speaker 3:What about Christian Braun?
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 2:D'Angelo Russell to yeah, that's a matchup to watch out for yeah, if you had to go through, i guess NBA you're looking at a big three, right, you need three guys, three superstars has been the formula. So the nuggets you have, yeah, jokic Murray, who's their third Porter. Junior, yeah, junior, yeah. Is he a strong enough third to match? I mean, the Suns have Katie Booker and, well, chris Paul's hurt. So right now it's what, tj Warren? I mean you know who's their third, shamanate?
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah, landry, that's the issue.
Speaker 3:Yeah, this mock is playing some good minutes right now. Yeah. Yeah like yours, you. I mean like yours It's, it's LeBron ad It's kind of like those two, and then whoever it's like those two, whoever shows up, it's it's Austin and on an austere He's.
Speaker 2:that's what I'm saying, like you can't get that. I could. It could be like I, i still put, i still put Michael pull, that I still put the Nuggets threesome above those because they go word you got stuff in the playoffs. I'm on and clay, clay and dream on their iffy game to game.
Speaker 4:So so far it sounds like all these picks are pretty good Yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean heck, since we've been talking that the the nuggets are up by 12 now, so it just went on like a 10-nothing run.
Speaker 3:We take a minute to talk about. Talk about the fact that the Jordan pool baddie boost is dead.
Speaker 1:That's a big Yeah, I are La women on the hot seat right now. Are they not as hot as we were told that they are? who?
Speaker 2:You tell about who. Who was it? Zinedine, zinedine, zinedine.
Speaker 1:Don't, don't, don't. you speak her name?
Speaker 4:I don't know I don't know who that is Zinedine.
Speaker 1:She, i think Zinedine was a game. Choose a game, two or three, whichever one the Warriors want like blew a mountain, choose a pecky So that that tracks. So she shows up for game Six in LA. Then wait, who is this?
Speaker 3:Didn't show up for game. Didn't she show up in San Fran? wasn't a game to was? yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that was the one that the Warriors won by like 40. Has she been going to every game?
Speaker 4:then day. I think that was the one that she went to. who's in day?
Speaker 1:Yeah, Yeah, you have to. We're not a, we're not an entertainment pod. We can't get into this.
Speaker 2:Chris Bruce, have you seen Dune? What's a dude?
Speaker 1:Did you? did you think the answer?
Speaker 2:I had to get that answer. What's a dude?
Speaker 1:Haven't you seen before you on HBO Chris?
Speaker 4:I've, i've, i've cycled past it to play something else, yeah would.
Speaker 2:Honestly. I watched season one of Before, yet it was weird like it's yeah, it's wild, it's, it's a wild show.
Speaker 1:Then the two wilder than season one is it?
Speaker 4:Yeah, and Denver's up 14. I'm in the row and right now 16 16. It scored 42 points in the first quarter. Do that, told you? I told Denver's gonna win We got him at the right time We've got, oh Yeah did we get him at the? right time. Whoops, like it All right, so the next we got. So we got baseball, nfl and then college football and basketball.
Speaker 1:Okay, let's talk to baseball Just please don't please tell me someone in put Kentucky, It's college basketball please, we're talking where we talking baseball first, or we just hop into college basketball.
Speaker 4:Andrew, i appreciate what you're saying, but Uh, ramas and I would would like to transition into baseball for a few moments, so we'll get to you, yeah, let's.
Speaker 2:I will turn off my mic, Oh that's that cool.
Speaker 4:Well, i mean, yeah, if you wanted to, let us talk baseball, but World Series, the Atlanta Braves Oh, that's a brave money. Money, money, yep, freddie Freeman bringing it back.
Speaker 2:Jones.
Speaker 4:Upton. Did either of the Uptons play they both played there Yeah though they did, was it late in their careers.
Speaker 2:Yes, it was when actually it was when I was in college at Georgia Tech. The Braves kind of had one last run with that core group with shipper They brought in the Upton brothers. Did not work out.
Speaker 4:So, let it be if you think they can think they can win it. Oh yeah, 25 and 12 right now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're 25 and 12 right now. Yeah, seven and three in their last, last 10. There's they're like 15 and two on the road. You got to win on the road, to win in playoffs. Last time I checked, yeah.
Speaker 4:Ramas and I would. We were just talking about that before We were hitting record is you have to win on the road to win the world series road, and who has the best? Series starts.
Speaker 1:the Atlanta Braves Yeah, Yeah, yeah we have Ronald a good one, the road right.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, let's play this game guys.
Speaker 2:Let's see how many Braves players you guys can name Freddie Freeman.
Speaker 1:Oh, ronald McConie Jr, it's my contribution. He had a 470 feet yesterday. I saw on Twitter.
Speaker 2:I saw live which which, by the way, when they won the World Series two years ago, he tore his ACL, he was out half the year, didn't play the playoff.
Speaker 1:So now they're gonna win the World Series by even more they got better.
Speaker 4:Who's the guy? who's the guy? the race used to have The Arnott, the Arnold d r, no, or something like that. Oh, travis, do you are? no, is he still there, or see?
Speaker 2:somewhere else. I believe he's still there. Yes, yep, he's still there, but actually he is now the backup They this guy, sean Murphy, who is? he's been incredible. He's got nine.
Speaker 4:Yeah yeah, yeah, sean's been great, He's been. He's been very good with the. The new guys that have come in this year really instill that winning culture.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yep so I would say, yeah, braves got that culture. I would say it, that's Probably. I would say that's the. I mean it's early in the baseball season, but that's probably your best bet to win the World Series. Just because if you look at the divisional breakdown, The end of the second is terrible.
Speaker 2:Like the Phillies have been awful, they've been slow. The Mets, i mean they're pitching staff. Nobody can stay healthy. The Mets are struggling. The Nationals are one of the worst teams But they've been actually playing better as a blade In the Marlins, of course. I mean they're not the Marlins, so Braves are pretty much a lock to win that division. They're probably gonna build a pretty big lead. And then you look to who else would you go with? Well, the Astros, but they're struggling. They're playing 500 baseball right now. Plus you have the Red Hot Rangers in that division. I mean, who even knows if they're gonna win that division? go crackin. I just can't believe. I can't believe the the Rays are now your betting favorite in the AL, like that's crazy. Yeah, wait, give it some time. Yeah, i mean. I mean I think the Rays are definitely going to go on a run this year. Yeah, they will, unless they completely collapse. Yeah, but what worries me is the strength of the division. That is the toughest division in baseball, by far most competitive, i mean these are in last place.
Speaker 1:Thank you, three games over 500.
Speaker 2:So, yeah, i, i'm go with the Braves, like the pick. The Braves will at least be in the playoffs, yeah, so This will at least last through October, or?
Speaker 3:into October. You like that pick from somebody not named Andrew, or are you?
Speaker 1:just doing. Ever made this because you said, you said you're going with the Braves and then you said you like the pick. So it's hard to tell.
Speaker 2:I like the pick, thanks Good. By the way, kraken just scores, so how good is the pick.
Speaker 4:Good pick, dallas, dallas is fine All right.
Speaker 3:So Yeah, since we started talking baseball, dallas, since Seattle have traded the goals.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but the nuggets are up by 20 now.
Speaker 1:So Jamal Murray's beard is cut so high under his chin It's like right after this chin starts He just goes full Like the end of the beard. So that that might be something to look to Come the finals, because if his lineup is still fucked up by the time that series starts, i don't know.
Speaker 3:Can you imagine if the NBA had playoff beards?
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh gosh, no, they had playoff fashion shows. Corey, it's fashion shows.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we need more red boots. Where'd the red boots go?
Speaker 1:What if there's someone sitting courtside? I think someone right at this game is wearing those red boots.
Speaker 2:No way What where?
Speaker 1:those from like where did?
Speaker 2:that come from those huge red shoes that look like Like mario and nintendo character.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're like the red version of the boots that uh spongebob wears, that make all the noise.
Speaker 2:Wait, that's what they originated from spongebob. No, no, I don't think so squeaky boots.
Speaker 3:Hey, I take your order.
Speaker 1:That's a weird. What's the next bit, chris? are we going?
Speaker 4:uh, nfl, nfl. Next. We got nfl and then college football and basketball.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because we know we nailed college football and basketball, so we might as well go nfl next. Yeah, oh, do nfl.
Speaker 2:Okay, okay, i was gonna say we do some nfl schedule talk in the little season preview go. It's a good idea.
Speaker 4:Okay, so we have. We have one vote for nfl, one vote for uh Was the other one college cori in there. You have to decide yet.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 4:We want to go. What part of the parlayer are we picking next? college football, basketball or nfl? So pick one. Yeah, phil. Wow, don't sound too excited to talk about all of it Probably already just set it up.
Speaker 3:We just set the stage for talking visual.
Speaker 4:Yeah, go ahead. Well, did you not just hear what Andrew just said and what we were just Oh?
Speaker 2:I guess I did. Yeah, leave this in, Chris. Leave this in.
Speaker 4:Yeah, we were trying to figure out. Hey look What's up, moves What moves.
Speaker 2:What are your takes? Who you got?
Speaker 1:Yeah, we need our version of the corgi Yeah Warriors to win a second to eat our version of that.
Speaker 3:Andrew, i have a question for you. Yeah, i was on Instagram just surfing. Does the name Max the Mayor mean anything to you? Yes, yeah, yes, yeah I've been following him for like a year, two years. I found him on Instagram and I went to his page and you're the only mutual follow that I had And I'm like all right, andrew knows about that Dude, heck.
Speaker 2:yeah, i'm going to follow that page. It's a mayor, that's a dog.
Speaker 3:It's like a family golden retriever. Yeah, a family lineage.
Speaker 2:It's actually kind of sad. So I've been following, i think more than two years, probably three or four. The original mayor yeah, the original Max passed away about a year ago And so they got a new puppy. That's the new mayor, but the original mayor Max, i think he had cancer, so he wasn't actually made that long.
Speaker 1:Yeah, That's a bummer.
Speaker 2:But they passed it on to a new mayor.
Speaker 4:Well, but you're laughing and you're like, oh yeah, he's got cancer. And I'm like, stop laughing now.
Speaker 2:I think I can't remember. I saw the video and they were like the new mayor of whatever town and then like it's a dog in the back of a pickup truck. I was like definitely going to follow this.
Speaker 3:So awesome. Yeah, i think the original Max has siblings who were like part of the cabinet, i guess. Right, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Like officers and stuff.
Speaker 3:Right, awesome, check it out, max the mayor. Yeah, shout out, yeah.
Speaker 4:Check it out, shout out Max the mayor. So speaking of Max, max on part of my take is a big Eagles fan. Oh geez, philadelphia Eagles are NFL super bowlers Next year. First year, shailen Hertz, is it a redemption?
Speaker 3:season.
Speaker 1:He just got paid, he's going to show it fat to try and camp. Some call it the poor man's Will Leviss. Some members of our podcast have said that he's the poor man's Will Leviss.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, i feel a little bit better, for Will Leviss Was so trapped by the Eagles.
Speaker 4:He's been putting mayonnaise in his coffee and bulked up over summer.
Speaker 1:I don't hate the. Eagles. The NFC is going to be kind of weird this year because it feels like it's a transition year for a lot of teams. Yeah, because who knows how good the Rams are going to be? The Niners are obviously going to be in the mix.
Speaker 4:The Niners lose anyone in, like any free agents or Jimmy.
Speaker 2:G All seasons. Jimmy G man Playoff.
Speaker 4:Jimmy Anyone who played considerable games. It is Jimmy G, jimmy G. Anyone else besides Jimmy?
Speaker 1:G, jimmy G, i think they're pretty much bringing back to the team.
Speaker 3:Like Elijah Mitchell, stick around.
Speaker 2:They should be pretty good. It's really hard to do an NFL preview in May.
Speaker 4:It would be funny if there was a way to do a fantasy football draft like now. Now You just see how that season would pan out, because we're so far ahead of the game.
Speaker 1:Can you imagine doing it before pre-agency? We started doing it as soon as you go in, a week after doing your draft.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh, chris, you should. This is it And this is perfect. We set up a fake league for Mamshur. Send him the draft. Now We do the draft, make him pay us Draft it right now And then, in the fall, we do our real league And he plays in this league, he would Dude, you know, he would accept, like you know, he would sign up and he would do the draft right now, what are we going to do for next year's fantasy?
Speaker 4:We're going to roll it back the same way. What do we think? Yeah, i was good with it.
Speaker 2:I want a league, so I'm good with no changes. Were we 10 or 12 people? How many did we have? We were 10 this time right.
Speaker 4:Yeah, 10 was fine.
Speaker 1:That's why some say that whoever won this season was kind of an asterisk on the season because there was less teams in the league. It was kind of like a real wrestling championship. That's what I've heard. I don't know. I don't have a opinion on it one way or the other. That's just what I've heard.
Speaker 2:But what if that team that did win also won the regular season and the most points?
Speaker 1:Is it the same diluted league with only 10 teams instead of 12?
Speaker 2:But they've won everything Like they won points they won games, so they did really well in the diluted league with less teams in it.
Speaker 1:I mean, I guess it's equally messy the way. I don't know. You could ask one of the people that has that opinion.
Speaker 4:I would never have thought of the opinion about the diluted league. No, you have to ask opinions of people who actually won the championship, unlike Corey.
Speaker 2:Wait, Corey, are you the only one that hasn't won the fantasy league?
Speaker 4:Corey's never even made it to a semi-final.
Speaker 3:You guys are on points, oh my.
Speaker 1:God, why?
Speaker 2:is Corey catching?
Speaker 1:so many strays for no reason.
Speaker 2:Corey, you guys change your name from silly nannies to like Hurst or something. What the heck?
Speaker 3:It's a diluted league, so we're American and you could have done a T-shirt.
Speaker 4:I'm not going to show that right now. That's Corey, right now. Why am I bringing it in? All right, so we want college football or basketball next.
Speaker 2:Football.
Speaker 4:Wait, so we're not worried that NFC.
Speaker 2:The NFC East hasn't had a repeat champion in like 15 years.
Speaker 4:You can take it up with that person that picked that team when that loses. Yeah Yeah, i guess we know. I hope that's the goal.
Speaker 2:I mean, do we not factor in that they eat?
Speaker 4:Pick it and he's over here just hedging himself. Are we doing him out of the picture?
Speaker 3:Uh-oh boys, we got a game.
Speaker 2:Oh no, Oh gosh, the campaign actually step up.
Speaker 3:No talky, oh, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, i can't paint the wall, i'm not talking about?
Speaker 3:Oh gosh, you should As soon as you pick the stars, carry the boys back. Yeah, but I don't think the NFC East has had a team like the E. Yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't know how good the Cowboys are. I don't know. The other options are the commanders and the Giants.
Speaker 3:I feel like the Giants season last year was a lot of fluke, but I don't think they like do better than that next year.
Speaker 4:Wow, we got the Vikings. Don't sleep on the Vikings, you guys see the Dalvin Cook is leaving.
Speaker 3:We're going to move on from.
Speaker 2:Dalvin Cook. Is he really Wait what Dalvin Cook's, not What I feel like. I saw that today.
Speaker 3:Is that fake news? I'd have been.
Speaker 4:Probably We'll cut his cordygette, ballsack.
Speaker 3:No, we're going to You're going to get ballsack. It's from Dove. It's from Dove Klein man. It's from Diana Rossini. All signs point to Vikings, most likely. moving on from Dalvin Cook, as of 13 hours ago, i'm 30. this week.
Speaker 4:I can't stay Right. Has he played a full season? Breaking news.
Speaker 3:Last time he played a full season I think he's been playing a little bit of a mouth as much as anybody else. Yeah, past few years.
Speaker 1:I guess they have Madison as their backup, right? I guess they're okay with him. I guess when you have a quarterback like Kirk Cousins and they were what nine and one and one score games last year, so you can't bet against that right You wouldn't take a team like the 49ers over a team like the Vikings, right?
Speaker 2:Wow, you know who the Vikings play week one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, bucks, caroline, a nice get up game for them.
Speaker 2:Nice and easy, did you say? the Carolina Panthers, do they play the Bucks?
Speaker 4:Oh, i have no idea. I haven't looked at the schedule One. I believed it, i believed it.
Speaker 3:I believed it. Okay, sounds good. Yeah, i'll just roll with that.
Speaker 2:No, the Bucks play at Minnesota week one.
Speaker 4:I saw they play the Titans. That'll be cool. Yeah, down there I heard it's in Tampa, though, yeah. Yeah, also, but it was up here. That'd be cool.

Speaker 1:DJ.
Speaker 4:Moore is pretty good against the Bucks. Yeah, thank goodness.
Speaker 1:They don't have Mitch Trebisky out there to throw six touchdown passes. Yes, exactly.
Speaker 2:All right So that's one and one Week three at home Eagles, my night football Lost, lost Okay.

Speaker 1:So that's, that's one, and addition by subtraction Right Oh whoa.
Speaker 2:Hey Romance Mike Edwards had two pick sixes in a game. Okay, how many players have done that? That's true.
Speaker 4:One game in one game. What about the other 15? And it was a bad buy-in.
Speaker 2:He won that game, okay, okay. Then the books have a buy week five. We're definitely going to need the rest.
Speaker 1:Great time for the buy. That's a win, that's a loss. Great, great time for the buy there.
Speaker 2:So we're one and three going into the buy Multiple losses.
Speaker 4:We're the winning in Chicago.
Speaker 2:We're the winning in Chicago.
Speaker 1:All right, there's a real, genuine chance. There's going to be O and four going into the buy Week five seasons over.
Speaker 2:At that point you would be in mid-October.
Speaker 1:Imagine rolling into the buy week winless at just O and four.
Speaker 4:The season has scored my scurry touchdown. It's already over. Week five is going to be so nice.
Speaker 1:It's like the opposite of the.
Speaker 3:I'm not going to pull his name out, sorry. Keep going Good podcasting, all right.
Speaker 1:Week six we got the Lions at home Detroit.
Speaker 2:That's going to be a loss. Who's Detroit's running?
Speaker 1:back because they lost Swift right They got some mere Gibbs man.
Speaker 4:Yeah, they're drafts And they got David.
Speaker 3:Montgomery.
Speaker 1:That's who they signed.
Speaker 3:Yeah, oh, wow.
Speaker 2:Yeah, who's the running back for the Bears?
Speaker 1:Oh, do they still have what's his?
Speaker 2:name Herbert.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:The Detroit has Jamal Williams and David Montgomery No. Jamal.
Speaker 2:Williams is in.
Speaker 4:New Orleans now.
Speaker 3:Oh, he's going to rush, i don't know that. 300 years.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 4:You didn't see the video. A video went viral.
Speaker 2:He couldn't figure out how to say Ben Yays, right, they're calling them like big, big nets or whatever. Big nets, big nets, yeah, All right. So one in five. We have the Tigers, We have the Tigers, we have the Tigers, we have the Tigers, we have the Tigers, we have the Tigers, we have the Tigers. And so one in five. We had a loss to the Lions. We've got the Falcons at home. I said they beat them, they beat the Falcons at home, yeah, all right, so we're two in five.
Speaker 2:Okay, then we go to Buffalo, to Buffalo on Thursday night. A quick turnaround Loss Okay.
Speaker 1:We're two in six. Good, i don't think, goodness, we get them on a short way.
Speaker 4:What is that? When would that be? So it's not that cold Halloween weekend, spooky weekend. A lot of things were wrong, yeah.
Speaker 1:I think maybe it's a feeling dangerous. You think the box. You see what was he talking.
Speaker 4:I can see it. I can see the box beating the bills. That game, yeah Yeah, you're overruled, and that's what.
Speaker 3:I can see it now, kyle Trasse on the tape. How is it going to show up in like a Beetlejuice costume? Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, if we're starting Kyle Trasse, we're in take mode at this point.
Speaker 1:All right, right now we're in Baker so I think we're already in take mode.
Speaker 2:We're in take mode. After Buffalo we go to Houston play the Texans one o'clock.
Speaker 3:That's a win.
Speaker 2:I'll take a win, yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah, we're going there to three, three game winning streak OK.
Speaker 2:So what are we at three and six now, Victor.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Go All right After the, although that's a.
Speaker 1:CJ Stroud game. So CJ Stroud is definitely throwing it to 300 yards and three touchdowns. Yeah.
Speaker 2:All right, so here's, that.
Speaker 4:That was going to be my Bryce. That was my.
Speaker 2:Bryce, after the, after the techs, after the Texans, we got the Titans at home. Will Leviss come to Tampa?
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's a loss, that's a loss. Will Leviss is going to be coming to Tampa on the team plane. He's just separately flying on vacation.
Speaker 4:He just he'll catch a ride with me on my way down. I got the. I got the bucks winning that game actually.
Speaker 1:He's going to see the Tampa plates on Chris Carr. He's going to see the Tampa plates on Chris Carr.
Speaker 3:Bill, hey, hey, you going to Tampa, you going to somebody you got to see, I'm like, I'm like feeling up feeling up to leave.
Speaker 1:He's just at the gas station.
Speaker 2:Oh boy, all right. So after that then we go to San Fran.
Speaker 4:Yeah, let me say we do you think we?
Speaker 1:score points this time? That was going to be my question, i think. I think that's like a 38 three. I would be shocked. Really That game by less than five touchdowns.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, we're definitely losing that game. You know what I just realized, though? The box are going to play all of the rookie quarterbacks next year. They play Bryce Oh great. They play Anthony Richardson, the Colts. They play the will have some Titans, and they play CJ Stroud with the Texans. So all of those quarterbacks will have at least one game where they look incredible.
Speaker 1:The guy Yeah, all of them are going to be friends.
Speaker 4:That's like him And we have six year that Baker Mayfield Perfect Scott.
Speaker 2:No, my point is. My point is that the bucks are, like, notoriously bad against rookie quarterbacks debuting. They could potentially play five rookie quarterbacks making their debut.
Speaker 4:That's petrifying, that's not good.
Speaker 2:Yeah, all right. So after San Fran we got the Colts Thanksgiving weekend in. That's a win, anthony.
Speaker 1:It's a loss. That's a loss, it's a loss Richardson throws for 350 yards.
Speaker 2:Cory, did the bucks beat Anthony? I could also see that as well.
Speaker 4:Great take.
Speaker 3:That'll be a battle. Anthony Richardson is probably going to run for 125 yards on us.
Speaker 4:Yeah, i mean that 53 man roster on the Colts gets paid too. I could win, you get paid.
Speaker 2:So what are we doing? the bucks get the Vance victory.
Speaker 4:I think that I think the bucks win that game. Okay, I think you have not watched the bucks since January.
Speaker 2:Hey, i'm just saying We got the bucks at five and six going into December. They're getting frisky, do you?
Speaker 1:guys, do you guys care? The box officially in the hunt you think the guys with the bucks are gonna be a game behind 500. You think the game bucks gonna be one game under 500 that late in the season Does that sound right.
Speaker 4:I could see it. I could see that. I could see the Bub one game over by.
Speaker 2:Not only are we five and six now going to December, but our next game is Carolina at home and then the Falcons on the road. The bucks could officially be seven and five.
Speaker 1:I can't emphasize enough How long it's been since you guys have watched the bucks play football.
Speaker 3:I'm not saying that we should do this, but can you imagine if we did this exact same thing But Tom Brady was still on the bucks? Yeah, how different would the record be right now.
Speaker 4:Be about the same. Yeah, we've got the same.
Speaker 2:Okay, so So we're five and six. We got Carolina. We beaten Carolina home, oh.
Speaker 4:No, yeah, six and six, seven and six if you count winning the buy.
Speaker 2:All right, six and six. Then we got Atlanta on the road. Are we going? are we going over 500? What time? is that game one o'clock, boss, boss, all right, fall back to six and seven. now We got to go to Green Bay, december 17th. One o'clock though December's December in and in the Tundra I don't know, dude, who's on that team Jordan who's on that? Jordan loves team now Jordan.
Speaker 4:Yeah, what was hard see no piece on the jets.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, they got. Aaron Jones defense is still there.
Speaker 4:Yeah, i mean we're not. We're not winning a game in December in Green Bay. So I'm gonna say yeah, yeah, i was gonna say what we talked about here. We're six and eight now.
Speaker 2:Okay, we're six and eight. We got three games left. Can we get to nine and eight? We got the Jags Jags at home on Christmas Eve loss. Okay, yeah, yeah, for sure, all right. So now we're six and nine. Do we beat the Saints at home on New Year's Eve? All right, we're six and ten. Do we finish?
Speaker 4:we finish up against the.
Speaker 2:Panthers.
Speaker 4:And Panthers and we start playing teams who have had later buys than us. This, yeah, this is where we are. This is where we have skid.
Speaker 3:Who's playing for the Saints this year?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's gonna be third car. Yeah, so we did. We finish up last last game. The season bucks at Panthers.
Speaker 4:I'm sure it'll be a meaningless game for both teams. Yeah, so honestly, point flip. I would say probably. I would say probably the bucks win that game. I would say I would like to hope the bucks would lose that game to get it better draft pick. But that means I probably win that game. So yeah exactly.
Speaker 2:So we're seven and ten.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna remind you, guys, of these picks when we're one and nine going into.
Speaker 2:When we're oh and four on the buy Robin's gonna be like seven and ten. My ass.
Speaker 4:Can you imagine playing playing this segment over the first? this like season highlights Of that of the season where we're like one and nine.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah. So this is what we, this is. This is the beauty of the schedule release We immediately protect the games.
Speaker 3:Romances what is wrong with cooking over there?
Speaker 1:Okay Yeah, just open up a plastic container of cookies.
Speaker 4:Chocolate chip Yeah four, five in December, get a cat if five hundred in December.
Speaker 3:Wow, give it that 500 in December. No, I Definitely got a clip the.
Speaker 4:The will leathers is Will. Let us the floor. Yeah, floors, floors. Carson Wins is MVP season. The ceiling is Jalen Hertz, highest pay player in the league. For what? six and a half days? Yeah, you make it a full week. I can't remember how long it was until yeah, all I'm saying is the bucks schedule.
Speaker 2:We're playing the two worst division. We play in our division, the NFC south, which is our with the worst in the NFL, and then we're also this year playing the AFC south.
Speaker 1:But we're part of the reason that we're one of the worst divisions in the league.
Speaker 4:Yeah, we're not better than we fully submit that legacy.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying, just saying we're put bucks are plus 700 to win the NFC south next year.
Speaker 4:I don't hate that plus 700. What's the is? where are the Saints to win it Well?
Speaker 2:we have the worst odds. Yeah, we're the war or the long shot. That's how that's the Tom Brady effect Yeah we've not bad. So the Saints are plus 120, the Falcons are plus 250, the Panthers are plus 350, bucks are plus 700.
Speaker 4:What? who's the quarterback for the Falcons?
Speaker 2:Desmond Ritter.
Speaker 4:Come on, bakers, bakers, better than Desmond Ritter.
Speaker 2:Saying it's a job. I think that's really bad to remember how last season went. We couldn't score 10 points a game and lost to the Falcons in the last Game right, we weren't trying that game Rumbus, rumbus, you got her you got to wade the season when were we trying versus when we weren't trying?
Speaker 1:Oh, that's right, That's right, that's fair.
Speaker 4:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3:It feels like a good time to Bring to attention the fact that Denver is on schedule to win by like 64 points.
Speaker 2:First scored 80 points in the first half guys 80 points.
Speaker 1:They're up 32. Phoenix is gonna get knocked out of the playoffs in 40-point losses and back to back. Yeah, This is just how the Sun you go crashing out of the playoffs ever You know. Is that what I think?
Speaker 2:it is Chris. Are you taking a piss right now? You can hear that. That's the buck season going down the drain right there.
Speaker 3:Remember when Katie went to Phoenix and everybody's like this is not fair for the league. I'm just gonna walk to the finals.
Speaker 2:Yeah Yeah, you guys want to revisit my nuggets pick. I mean, I think it's pretty solid. I thought that was Victor's pick. Oh, thank you.
Speaker 3:Was that your pick? Who'd you have?
Speaker 2:You can't say He was about to say. He was about to say though Yeah, the nuggets no, oh yeah the nuggets. Oh yeah real Madrid, okay.
Speaker 3:Yeah, the brave. How, how many years from now, is a Saudi Arabian team gonna win the Champions League? Oh, that's something that we need to talk about.
Speaker 2:Okay, yeah, can we talk about that for a minute? Where is messy actually going? It's a Saudi League with Christiana Ronaldo, when you're getting up for $400 million a year.
Speaker 3:I like that's what's trending right now.
Speaker 1:Yeah, i think Barcelona cannot afford them.
Speaker 3:I mean, they have plenty money right now, right.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, for sure, they can probably just sell their rights right. They can just play as like FC Spanish team instead of And like sell their naming rights.
Speaker 3:Sell 100% of their stake in Barcelona.
Speaker 1:They can be named like they are and like the DES games, and just be.
Speaker 3:Is uh is boost gets supposed to go to any of the two teams that there have. Ronaldo were supposed to get messy.
Speaker 1:That's what I heard too.
Speaker 3:I heard there's rumors that he's supposed to go to oh hello, Which is the one that messy is supposed to go to wait for CW to pick up those rights for that Saudi League to I'd be scenes. I can't wait to get a statement from Christopher When he comes out of the bathroom.
Speaker 4:I'm here, what's up? How was it? Oh, it's great. I didn't know if you guys could hear me now, did you?
Speaker 2:take some like you going in there with you.
Speaker 4:No, i had my air pod in. That's why I was like, if I'm not, i'm not away from this, but maybe I don't. I don't know, sorry, what.
Speaker 2:Podcasting? yeah, you're probably, you're probably recording from your air pod, then here I'm recording from this.
Speaker 1:Do you have a secondary mic in the bathroom too?
Speaker 4:I'm just mic'd up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, chris, right now it's just your default. Is your air pod son of a bitch, that's why you don't sound really good.
Speaker 4:Oh, i don't sound good, thanks. Thanks for telling me and how we're gonna happen to the recording.
Speaker 2:Start from the top All right, we got that was NFL. You got a college football, college basketball.
Speaker 3:Probably go college basketball first. We can okay.
Speaker 2:Just please tell me, it's not Kentucky.
Speaker 3:I was listening to something earlier. It was. It was the Mark Titus podcast. Yeah, they were saying Barani James might not, might not even yeah, no, he's not that good like you'll play like 15 20 minutes.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they did. So they do have Isaiah Collier, who is, in some on some rankings, the best recruit in the country Coming to USC. They still have boogie Ellis He's coming back, so I mean yeah but they'll like, they'll just walk through the pack.
Speaker 3:12, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know what's going on with Oregon. I don't know what's going on with Arizona either. They had a mass exodus, but they usually bring a lot of international guys. So Well, Shawn Miller's at Xavier. Oh yeah it's Lloyd, tommy Lloyd.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought it was a great coach until they lost a Princeton the first round.
Speaker 4:So I have a. I have a basketball question College or pro, pro. So if you guys are done talking college, go ahead. Who is Lonnie Walker the fourth?
Speaker 2:Lonnie Walker the fourth the guy for the, yeah, so, miami legend. You don't remember the? you don't remember the NBA draft? the guy with like the craziest Hager and they tried to put the hat on and he couldn't because his hair was so tall that he had to like Big in it to the front of his hair. Yeah, hmm, he was drafted by the Spurs And they did. He attrated or he gets cut. I'm not sure how you end up on a Lakers, but Yeah, he was a bench player and then he just went off the other night out of nowhere.
Speaker 1:So I was like a rotation guy a little earlier in the season and then he just kind of got taken out of the rotation. But then he I guess could he played well in that blowout And they brought it back in and then he tore it up in the fourth quarter game for, yeah, that versus Lonnie Walker a 50 points.
Speaker 2:Mmm, a little nervous about the Stars pick now, chris, is it still 3-2, 3-2?
Speaker 4:Yeah we're fine. Yeah, easy money.
Speaker 2:But if they lose this game, it goes back to Seattle and they have a chance to win it.
Speaker 4:But they got. They got Ottinger, they got Kate. I'm sure it's fine. I'm feeling pretty good about this million dollar parlay.
Speaker 2:Feel like we're doing going great about the nuggets. Right now They're up 30 at the half, 81 points.
Speaker 4:Yeah, whoever picked that did did great. I actually don't even have my list in front of me, so I don't even know who picked what. Yeah, so what do we have to? we have to left the college teams. Yep, yeah, let's go. Oh god, so football Roll tide. Alabama is gonna win it all. Oh my gosh. Okay, alabama's back.
Speaker 1:Well, what's the longest thing on on a championship drought? Is this the longest championship drop since the?
Speaker 2:Uh, uh, no, I'm sorry. Okay, so he got there and he won his first in 2009. Then they won it in 2000. They had almost a three-peat. They won 11, 12. They didn't win in 13, 14 might again. Yeah, this might be his longest drought since 2009. They've never lost, they've never went longer than three years and this would be year three if he didn't, so I don't know. The question with Alabama Is who's gonna play quarterback?
Speaker 4:Don't matter.
Speaker 2:It don't matter, i mean.
Speaker 4:Cory definitely picked Bama. I thought Cory won Florida. I wonder what a parlay would be for the Gators and the Bucks to both.
Speaker 2:Just just hand me a dollar. I'll take it, i'll pay you, whatever, whatever.
Speaker 4:Give me whatever odds, i'll take it, let me see like if it will. I don't even, will even allow you to.
Speaker 2:My concern, though, with Bama is one there They've been passed by Georgia. Georgia is now the elite program.
Speaker 4:Georgia or Georgia Tech, we're talking. Football or academics, we're talking academics, definitely Georgia Tech.
Speaker 2:But talking football, hey, we George Tech did get a transfer wide receiver from Georgia.
Speaker 4:So Transfers are good. Transfer wide receivers are very good.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but so Alabama took the transfer quarterback from Notre Dame. We started last year and he wasn't very good, if there was an aim right now, but yeah, yep, yep I think they have a decent, maybe a four star QB coming in. I mean, that's what I'm saying. They have a wide open QB room But after the spring, if you take a transfer quarterback, that's not a good sign that you're confident in your room news flash, graham Mertz picked Florida over Alabama.
Speaker 3:There you go.
Speaker 1:Yes, you just have more bacon program because because we're USF to win the national championship, 300,000 to one, i Mean like if there's, if there's another endemic, like, let's say, two games into the season And USF is the only two in our team, yeah, and they're just. Maybe they're just named national champions. Is it a quick? Can you win that? if they claim a national championship?
Speaker 4:Oh So if you, if you put, if you put $1 on the Bucks to win the Super Bowl and the Florida Gators to win the national championship, you'd win $11,000. Not enough, it's not enough. No, that's hilarious on a $1 bet for two teams.
Speaker 1:What are their odds? What is like each of their odds?
Speaker 4:The Gators are 15,000 to one I know, excuse me, plus 15,000, excuse me. The Bucks are plus 7,500 75 to one. For the Bucks seems a little.
Speaker 1:So they're trying to say that it's twice as likely that the Bucks win a Super Bowl than the Gators win a national championship. That's that's very insulting to the University of Florida.
Speaker 4:Yeah, for real.
Speaker 3:I guess it makes sense the Bucks have an easier way to get to playoffs. That's true. Florida, literally yeah, florida's got to go through Bama.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so, corey, alabama has five quarterbacks on the depth chart. Three of them are freshmen and then the Tyler Booster kids. Richard sophomore. Jalen Noro is the junior He's the oldest, which I think he played a game or two last year when Bryce, yeah, when Bryce was hurt. But yeah, i just don't know. It's Alabama right now. I mean, the West is so much hard, like LSU is gonna be good. They're bringing back most of their teams, so that's gonna be tough and they got my Tennessee. Tennessee's gonna be good, unless you still have that quarterback.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, he's gonna be back, but the thing with Georgia is they have the easiest schedule you could possibly imagine. I don't think they. I think they have one ranked team on their schedule. It's pretty sensey. Yeah, I mean, I'm pretty sure they're like Florida.
Speaker 3:Maybe at home Is like their second hardest game.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, hey, just gonna hate so I mean, i think, i think George is a lot to be at least in the playoff.
Speaker 1:How hard is it to win three straight national championships, though even Nick Savin seem never did it right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, kick six, kick six prevented that from happening.
Speaker 4:Just.
Speaker 3:Who's the thought?
Speaker 4:so I'll see, oh No yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1:USC gonna do a 2007 Gators and when they're gonna call in basketball national championship, i'm saying we're gonna play basketball. And then and then Kayla Williams and Barani are gonna go number one in their draft. Barani, path is wide open.
Speaker 4:Yeah yeah. Speaking of college basketball, do we want to integrate our college basketball pick in here?
Speaker 2:Yeah, okay, all right. Is it?
Speaker 1:the university. Is it an SCC team?
Speaker 2:I will say with out the Alabama pick, just to put a bow on that, if Alabama misses the playoff again, coach savings, hot seat right, like has to be No. No I don't know And bases are gonna be happy, i'll be a basketball school.
Speaker 4:I mean, you just had, you just had a quarterback number one overall.
Speaker 2:So yeah, you had two of your players in the top three draft picks And you didn't even make the playoff with them.
Speaker 4:Oh, it's a team sport offense and defense And special teams.
Speaker 3:What did it to them? They asked LSU, is that right?
Speaker 2:It lost an LSU in overtime. They LSU went for two to win the game and they yeah, they lost to Tennessee because That late field goal.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah, Tennessee was the best team in the country at that point in time.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't say that Jordan would kill them like a week later.
Speaker 1:I think that wasn't at that point in time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, What do we just say?
Speaker 4:he's like no, I don't know, because the next week Had a different point in time. Different point in time. I don't know. We're talking times. All right, so the winner of the NCAA championship next year Starts with a K. Okay, give it Wildcats.
Speaker 1:Let's go, let's go.
Speaker 3:Kansas. Kansas is the winner.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Kansas probably odds on favor Yeah.
Speaker 4:Yep, that's weird cuz yeah he got that Dickinson guy right.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 3:He got him.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah. So here's the thing about that situation It sucks, because he just used us for leverage.
Speaker 1:That's why I thought wasn't coach Cal like a historically good recruiter? Did he miss out on that recur?
Speaker 2:Oh, he is wrong.
Speaker 1:That's why he got a contract for his Recruiting.
Speaker 2:Yeah, i mean he, he does have the number one recruiting class, so that's probably why, right? Okay?
Speaker 4:does he have the number one recruit class?
Speaker 2:Yeah, by a large margin, arguably one of the greatest recruiting classes of all time.
Speaker 1:So they're definitely gonna make the final four?
Speaker 4:Probably not actually should we cash out on the one cent every yeah, flip it and Yeah, yeah with it.
Speaker 2:No, I don't have any sense.
Speaker 1:I'll personally play. Pay the difference of the 99 cents.
Speaker 3:Did you guys see the video of I think two of the Kentucky recruits were a part of it where they showed them pictures of Leopardy's like they showed They're not her to Caprio Chris Weber They showed ludicrous and like none of them knew who they were.
Speaker 2:Wait, when was this?
Speaker 3:I saw today, but how old it is wait who was a bunch of like. It was two of those top three or four Kentucky recruits.
Speaker 2:Okay, like the one Wagner and Justin Edwards, i think you don't like your butt might have been one.
Speaker 3:Yeah, they had no idea who ludicrous was, no idea who Chris Weber was, who Leonardo DiCaprio was Yeah, all his life man And what like.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, that was hilarious. Did you guys see those comments that? uh, oh my gosh, what's his name? the radio guy on serious I just I'm liking on it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we're so serious.
Speaker 2:Howard Stern, he was oh yeah. And he was like complaining because, no, the players were like high-five. He was trying to make it like a Like is it a white guy?
Speaker 1:Come open like they want.
Speaker 2:Tapping them up. And everybody in the comments was like dude, these guys were bored in like 2004. I have no idea, nobody watched America's Got Talent buddy. Yeah, I don't watch America's Got Talent from 2010.
Speaker 3:He brought up Spike Lee and then somebody, somebody was like dude, it's Spike Lee, that's how like it was, like a quote sweet.
Speaker 1:Like the thought of someone like Shay Gildes, how they're knowing who Howard Stern is. They live in different universes. They don't exist on the same plane of.
Speaker 2:That's the craziest thing about the NBA and you have to realize is most of these guys They're not even like drinking age when they get in the.
Speaker 1:I mean, they're, yeah, coming into the league when they're like 18, like all these superstars when they're young 20s so ESPN just put up a graphic of the largest halftime deficits in a home elimination game, and The last two are the Phoenix Suns down 30 and their last two home elimination games, yeah, against Dallas last year, yeah what did they end up losing that game by?
Speaker 1:I think it was in the 40s, because I remembered Chris Paul hit it three to cut it down to like 42 or something like that and it became Try to 42.
Speaker 2:Yeah, where are the live odds? what can you get in that right now, chris? Or what is curious? Vods yeah, I mean they can't stop Jokage at all. So yeah, they're right now It's. You can get the the line as nuggets by 20.
Speaker 4:Yeah, phoenix, plus 2500 Plus 2500, that's wow, denver.
Speaker 1:Booker and Katie also combined for like 32 points and halftime and they were both cheating at 30%.
Speaker 2:That's what I'm saying, man. Like they gave up everything to get to Katie, yeah, so I don't know what their plan was when they got the play out.
Speaker 1:What do you do now?
Speaker 2:They're in time. They have to score all of their points.
Speaker 1:Yeah, literally. What does Phoenix do now? Like what's their next step? because you would, they thought their next step was getting Katie this year, but that didn't work either. So now what do they?
Speaker 2:do. Yeah, katie man. Like could that dude have made worse career choices? like I don't think there's an athlete that has put himself into As many terrible situations as him.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he met it when he said he wanted to take the hardest road. Yeah Yeah, it's so funny that if you just stuck around in Golden State, he'd probably have two or three more rings now, a couple more finals, mvps Oh my god. We just keep building his legacy.
Speaker 4:I don't know about that. He was there three years.
Speaker 1:Yes, they won two out of three championships to.
Speaker 2:They won the first two, and then, well, he got he tours Achilles.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he tours Achilles, and clay tours ACL. And the same finals with the Raptors one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, that's what makes sense, that was the.
Speaker 1:That was a great game, drake.
Speaker 2:You know what I actually did. For the first time I saw the extended clip. I got to go. I don't think I've ever seen.
Speaker 4:I mean. I remember watching it live, but I don't think I've ever seen, yeah, let me see if I can find it and I'll send it in the group. But it is so funny to see like the Katie limping off and then.
Speaker 2:Drink the reaction. Imagine tearing your Achilles and the first thing that you see is Drake on the sideline pretending to be sad for you. That's got to be like rock bottom.
Speaker 1:But yeah, it back to. It would have just made more sense if Katie just took a year off. I mean, I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to do that.
Speaker 2:But yeah, it would have just made more sense if Katie just took a year off with clay I could. Who would have cared at that point?
Speaker 1:you know yeah.
Speaker 4:Yep, the quiet, the noise, just go, do whatever rehab so I have some some NBA questions as a Not an avid viewer, so most of the playoffs that I've watched have been on the smaller screen that have been muted. I've been watching hockey, so I have, from a casual, mccasual perspective of NBA, i have questions for you guys. Sure, if that's okay, go for it. So I've noticed that Steph Curry is wearing this new sleeve on the left arm, not on the right arm. Style is that? is that his signature look, or are there.
Speaker 1:I think it's an injury thing. I think he had not. I think it's a. I think it's just like a bandaged thing. I think he had a shoulder issue or where in the air, something like that.
Speaker 4:Oh, it's just not a fashion thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, it's definitely not a personal choice.
Speaker 4:Oh, damn Okay, cuz I saw it and I was like that's, that's cool, But yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 1:Yeah, cuz he before that he's never worn like a shooting sleeve or anything, so I think it's weird for him to wear a sleeve at all.
Speaker 4:Yeah, cuz I think when I watched that first came out, i watched against Sacramento I.
Speaker 1:I noticed it and I was like this is interesting Yeah yeah, he's been wearing it for Pretty much the whole back out for the year so next, this is the worst basketball player that I have seen.
Speaker 4:This playoffs he has been the worst of anyone that I've watched. Thompson's it's the dog junior, gary Payton. Can you guys tell me, is this guy actually good? because the amount of minutes I've seen him play he's been very, very Underwhelming he is a Warriors fan favorite.
Speaker 3:Yeah, last year He went to the trailblazers.
Speaker 1:He was a part of that trade that got weirdly.
Speaker 3:Even though contested, i Contested, i guess, because he had an abdominal injury and so they the Warriors contested. It Decided to go through with it anyways. Came back, but he's more of like a defensive offense to make.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, he like I guess in theory is like a Trevor. He's a 3D guy but he did three corners and has Consistent it. I'm sure he's still kind of entered. I wouldn't even say Kerry Payton Junior is the worst guard on the Warriors in the playoffs right now because that has to go to Jordan, All right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, because he doesn't offer anything on.
Speaker 1:Yeah, not shooting a goal horrible to watch For 90% of the time, and I don't really know what even Chenzo brings to the table either.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't know. Even Chenzo seems like a guy that you would give like 12 minutes to maybe.
Speaker 4:I'm pretty sure, after that game or maybe like five minutes after Ramos and I were texting about the game potential of his reaction. What year was this? What year was that 2019? Yeah so that would have been what? June of 2019.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Yeah, was this immediately.
Speaker 1:Yes, because it was he could. He came back to Toronto from a yeah, It was. He came back from the leg injury. It was game five came back from the leg injury For that game played great in the first quarter. He scored like 12 in the first quarter and then towards Achilles. Yeah, he was done. Play played pretty well and they got it to game six and they lost in game six.
Speaker 4:Yeah yeah, van fleet. Yeah, that's right, because they had fleet, just had a kid. So I have Something to talk to you guys about, a bit of a throwback from the first couple episodes of sports broves. Some soccer news Did you guys hear about? Yeah yeah, torrey's curse, my man city Have heard about it before.
Speaker 3:I have no idea what it is, so I guess they You want to take this one, or you want the promise Romes.
Speaker 2:You can take that one actually you go ahead. Romes.
Speaker 4:No, no, andrew, you can't take it. Yeah, you can take it, yeah, unless you wanted to tee it over to Romes.
Speaker 2:but yeah, yeah, romes, you go.
Speaker 3:Yeah, okay, i got it This, some more witch magic, or?
Speaker 1:yeah, i don't. I think, yeah, yeah, has spoken out and said very specifically that he didn't put the curse on anybody. But there was, like some, there was some conversation about and potentially putting a curse on, pep Because of stuff that happened between them when he first joined Manchester City And that's why pep hasn't been able to win the Champions League since then. But again, yeah, yeah, has gone on the record saying that he doesn't Have any sort of curse that he's put on them. I think it's kind of like the little B curse that was on Kevin Durant, where he said Kevin Durant would never win a championship and then he lifted it as soon as he joined Golden State.
Speaker 2:It wasn't as soon as he joined Golden State.
Speaker 1:Yeah, literally the day that he joined he tweeted that he lifted the curse.
Speaker 2:Like the next day that I'm on, first take big curse is over.
Speaker 4:So when you say that he said the curse is over, it sounds like someone who Or wait, did you say the curse is over, or that he did not put the curse on.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's claiming that he never put a curse on there which would be the funniest thing to do. The funniest thing to do, in my opinion, would be to curse someone and then say you didn't curse them because then it looks makes them look so much worse.
Speaker 4:Yeah, because it sounds like. It sounds like something a double agent would say. It makes him even, even even more culpable In my, in my mind.
Speaker 3:What do you think vector?
Speaker 4:Yeah, that's fair Bitch ass.
Speaker 3:I don't understand the curse, though, because man city has won numerous Champions League, numerous too many to count like an FA cup first, or something well.
Speaker 4:I'm feeling pretty good about our parlay.
Speaker 2:Still alive. We'll see if the stars can come right here.
Speaker 1:Some of the doubters said that the curse that the parlay wouldn't last till the end of the the recording in the podcast. But if we stop recording now, we already made it.
Speaker 2:I'll put him on the record as uh someone that doubted and there, yeah, yeah, there's some people who kind of doubt in the nuggets pick earlier, and that's interesting because they're Actually doing pretty well right now.
Speaker 1:So they're actually getting outscored by about seven points in the second half, though. So they they're trending downwards. I think some would say in the power, in the power rankings, they would have a little red arrow to them.
Speaker 2:Well, campaign is six for six from three, so that could have something to do.
Speaker 1:What a game to choose to go six or six From three when you two.
Speaker 4:Wait who.
Speaker 1:Campaign from the sun. He's, he's going out. By saying that he's, it's not his fault.
Speaker 4:Yeah, Yeah, when is the uh, because you guys heard the uh actually so real quick. Nhl Draft lottery. Chicago black hawks rigged have an. When is the nba Draft lottery?
Speaker 1:draft lottery next week. Next week It's a week from wednesday. I think it was it's wednesday night right?
Speaker 2:Yeah, i think so.
Speaker 4:I don't know if the nba wanted to To sit down and watch a production on how not to Televised a draft lottery the nhl was very good at this week. Um, so they could, they could learn from. They could learn from that. I don't know if you guys saw, but there was three teams left And, yeah, the third, the third best odds to get the number one overall pick was chicago, and then two was columbus, one was anaheim and then kevin. Weeks on, uh, espn was like all right, we're gonna go to break. Um, like, as there were three teams left that were up for a super talent, uh, franchise changing talent and he's just yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah, yeah, we got three teams left. um and it, there was three teams left, and then they went to cut. and then kevin weeks was like Yeah, so the first team to fall down is the columbus bluejackets. So we have anaheim or chicago that will Pick one overall. and then they went straight to commercial and I was like We didn't even we didn't get to pick. They didn't say anything about us.
Speaker 4:They didn't even show our logo. They just said that and then cut straight to commercial. So I was yeah, that was. Uh, i'd be pissed if I was columbus.
Speaker 1:Well, it's a professional league that's as bad at marketing itself as the nhl. I feel like the nhl is so bad at like No, no, no, they're talking themselves to a wider audience.
Speaker 2:Rom is majorly baseball.
Speaker 1:But when you consider what they happen, they're like what is baseball going to market? at least the nhl has something to offer. Yeah, Baseball is kind of stuck in the fact that they're trying to market baseball. They changed some stuff about the sport and they might be able to market it a little bit better.
Speaker 2:Yeah, majorly baseball will announce like their hall of fame during the super bowl. That's, that's the timing of majorly baseball. But that, chris that's that's a classic case of the nhl is definitely rigged right like has to be.
Speaker 4:It's just, it's so it's. It's weird. I wish they would, because don't don't they in the NBA, don't they show the actual lottery balls? Or is that just champions league? and, like european football, they? Used to actually show it live being picked.
Speaker 3:I don't believe it. And there was. What's it there are allegations of like they froze one of the balls.
Speaker 2:Yeah, feel it.
Speaker 1:Yes, he would take that one. So now they just draw cards, just like yeah, those are past viewing draft, right when you went to the next.
Speaker 2:Well, i thought, i thought the magic one was the last, like I'm trying to remember the last one that had ping pong balls. I know that one of the biggest ones was when the magic one had like a 1% chance and they got it, and that's when they drafted penny hardaway right after that check.
Speaker 1:Uh yeah, I think the Derek rose one with still lottery balls, and I think one of the calves ones was too.
Speaker 3:Because I know in hockey if you have a 1% chance, you still can't get the first.
Speaker 1:Oh, you can't like, it's impossible.
Speaker 3:You can only move up 10 spots.
Speaker 4:As a I guess, as a lighting fan. We haven't really had too many Top 15 picks and oh, what a flex.
Speaker 3:Yeah. So like if you have rigged, you have like the 12th, most, 12th, best odds and you, your card gets picked, it would put you as the second pick in. Oh, you can't go any higher than a high would have had the number one. So anaheim had their odds plus like 11 through 50.
Speaker 2:So, core, you are right. The decision for the NBA not to show the ping pong balls live Was fueled by speculation that the NBA Fixes the draft lottery to benefit the league, which originated in the 1985 draft lottery. That said Patrick Ewing to New York, yep against the next yep but to the next.
Speaker 3:Those, those romis. But I'll take credit.
Speaker 4:Who picked number two in that draft, like who got who got, screwed Charlotte 1985.
Speaker 3:I know exactly who was bad in 1980 the Bulls, the Super Sonics, bob Kats.
Speaker 2:Indiana Pacers New Jersey. Oh yeah, they were terrible garbage. Who, wayne Tisdale, was the draft big.
Speaker 4:Oh, he was pretty good. Yeah, who's picked after him?
Speaker 3:Where did he go to school? Oklahoma, oh.
Speaker 2:It makes sense that was right was nicks, then Pacers, clippers, super Sonics, hawks, kings, yeah, i mean, it's just yeah.
Speaker 4:What was the? what was the NBA year, when the Warriors Were like the eight seed and was like the big upset, like before Steph? when was that so?
Speaker 1:like 2007, yeah, 2007.
Speaker 4:Who was on the? who was on that?
Speaker 1:Darren Davis, i got nailers.
Speaker 2:I think Monta Ellis, yeah, i think what he was on that team, jason Richardson was.
Speaker 1:That's when he was jumping through the gym.
Speaker 4:Yeah, jumpin, jumpin.
Speaker 3:But uh, honor Bidad is awesome. You watch the world juniors and then McTavish for Canada.
Speaker 2:They're unbelievable Wait. is he on the K Canadian team that we just picked to win?
Speaker 4:I don't think he's playing in it. That's the thing about those turbans. I don't know who's playing in it.
Speaker 3:You know who's on that team, though We teach, oh Okay.
Speaker 4:Finland's in and leading it, so I wonder who the finish like goalie is.
Speaker 3:So line a is not playing, and also Phil Palladin get picked.
Speaker 1:I have no idea.
Speaker 3:Oh, oh, what's his name for Colorado? Hey, skinnin, ratnan, ratnan, right, yeah, i think Rantnan. Yeah, rantnan, it's in Finland. It's like split between Finland and Latvia, so they're odds on favorite, but my knees not playing. All right, we're gonna wrap this up, or?
Speaker 2:I think we nailed it. Yes, it's supposed to be a short one.
Speaker 4:You want to do the starting five now, or I think?
Speaker 3:it's a little bit harder.
Speaker 2:Biggest bust, so this parlay, this parlay number one, one, and the stars scored, so it's four to two now.
Speaker 4:They're still playing. Let's fight another day, so the the first, so the ones that are gonna come up first are the stars, the nuggets in Canada. Right, just so sorry.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think Canada has a good group though.
Speaker 4:Canada's good. I was surprised when they were actually not the favorite, because they're they were plus 270.
Speaker 3:Well, it's a really funny.
Speaker 1:Go it is. It would be very funny to me if we got to the final leg of this parlay, and it's March 2024 and Kansas playing Kentucky for the national championship.
Speaker 2:I was having a million dollars on the line Oh. Gosh, i don't know what I, what I really have a million dollars or a Kentucky national championship.
Speaker 4:I Try to put it in as a million dollars, but it only kept me at ten cents, so sorry is.
Speaker 2:Thus, that's where you just back a parlay multiple times.
Speaker 4:I was gonna do that and I'm like do I really need to sit here and bet this five times, or is This is once enough? just save it. Save it in your queue.
Speaker 2:That again, that's a re-enter it every time.
Speaker 4:No, i know that, but at that point I was like I think one one ten cent Bet is in it for us.
Speaker 2:But here's the thing, chris after each of these legs caches, we could cash one out and then just flip it into the next, next legs at the parlay. Yeah, i mean, the good thing is you're gonna get you got good odds on both the nuggets and the stars if these Scores both hold.
Speaker 4:I think I have a text from you earlier today that says we should place a bet on the nuggets After today because they're gonna lose that we better value and this regard that. Is that true? Is that true?
Speaker 2:He was just joking. Yeah, that was just me. Yeah, yeah, what do you think I was betting on? the Suns tonight, chris?
Speaker 4:That wasn't that was a bet on the Suns tonight. Yeah, I was just good.
Speaker 3:You fell for it, stupid.
Speaker 2:Yeah, who thought the Suns would actually win a closeout game at home like come on, all right, but That's a good one Should we good parlay, so I can just, i can just record the intro Um separately, then we could do the yeah what did we say?
Speaker 4:It was very early the first couple minutes where we're like oh, that's the cold open Man, i can go back and listen obviously, but you could just sniff you taking a piss in the bed in the bathroom.
Speaker 3:Roll that into the intro.
Speaker 1:That sound. Is that what I think it?
Speaker 2:is, or you could just run that sound on a loop behind us.
Speaker 3:You guys can hear me.
Speaker 4:That's funny because I've done that so many times when we were recorded. I've just like, i've just like walked away And came back that I didn't realize. I remember you like before and after we record And I'm just I'm sitting here getting hydrated too much water.
Speaker 3:My first thought was you had been waiting a long time. That was a steady.
Speaker 4:That's why I left. I was a strong one.
Speaker 3:I thought it was the sink, i thought it was the faucet. They were so strong He's filling up.
Speaker 1:I was gonna have you check your water pressure because it felt like he was too much.
Speaker 4:How'd it go? all right? well, well, all right, i guess that. I guess that does it for this evening, so we'll leave it there. Finish up round two and then we'll see you guys for round three. We'll see my finals, see how champions League European football plays out. Maybe our store makes a comeback, plus 800 to win the Premier League. But uh, british head that does the force. Yeah go, big blue cats.
