An 18-Inning Marathon & Are the Chiefs the Team to Beat...Again? · Height Differential

• 0:01
  Give it, give it to me. We're back.
• 0:12
  It's the height differential. That's the six, six, Neil.
• 0:15
  I'm the four, 5th, 10. Nick.
• 0:17
  We've recovered from the Bengals loss on Sunday a little bit.
• 0:20
  I've not recovered, but just try to forget about it.
• 0:23
  Yeah. But after missing last Wednesday
• 0:26
  because of my, it was my fault. I'm missed because of work, we
• 0:30
  are back on a Wednesday. I think we got a lot to talk
• 0:33
  about here and it's almost Halloween on Friday.
• 0:37
  So we'll close with with some Halloween thoughts.
• 0:39
  But I guess we got to start with the World Series tied at 2:00 to
• 0:44
  2:00. The Blue Jays looking good in
• 0:47
  Game 5 as they lead off the game with back-to-back home runs off
• 0:50
  Blake Snell. But I think dating back we got
• 0:53
  to go back and talk about game three, the 18 ending marathon.
• 0:56
  Did you stay out for that thing? No, can't say that I did.
• 0:59
  I stayed up for one of the games.
• 1:01
  I mean, they basically played two complete full games, 18
• 1:04
  innings. So I watched the majority of it.
• 1:07
  But I mean, staying up till 2:50 in the morning just wasn't in my
• 1:11
  wasn't on my agenda. So no, I did not stay up for it.
• 1:13
  Caught caught the highlights the next morning saw Will Smith
• 1:17
  almost ended in the 14th inning when he pimped his long fly out
• 1:21
  to the warning track, and then Freddie Freeman 4 innings later
• 1:24
  decides he's had enough and they went home with the win.
• 1:27
  Freddie, I mean, he just keeps doing it, doesn't he?
• 1:29
  When they called him Mr. World Series on the broadcast.
• 1:32
  Yeah. And I mean obviously he had some
• 1:34
  big ones back with the Braves as well, but there was no chance I
• 1:37
  was staying up. Like we had five straight days
• 1:40
  of just non stock activity and by the time we we golfed on
• 1:46
  Monday in the code rain. Yeah.
• 1:48
  And then we had our Ryder Cup style little meeting after that.
• 1:54
  And we got home at 11:30 and we had Bengals games on Sunday.
• 1:58
  We had the vulva game on Saturday with a Halloween party
• 2:01
  on Friday. I was beat.
• 2:03
  So I turned the radio on my phone to listen to it to see how
• 2:06
  long it would last. And two minutes later I was
• 2:07
  gone. I woke up at 3:30 to see what
• 2:10
  happened and saw that Freddie hit the home run.
• 2:12
  But 18 innings. And I don't know if people know
• 2:18
  this, but Brad Paisley sang the anthem.
• 2:20
  I. Saw that?
• 2:21
  For that game and he sang the anthem four times in the World
• 2:26
  Series. All four of those games have
• 2:27
  gone to extra innings. And the 18 inning game in 2018
• 2:32
  he also did the anthem and that game went 18 innings.
• 2:36
  So might want to quit asking oh Brad Paisley to sing the anthem
• 2:41
  for World Series games. Yeah, he might want to.
• 2:43
  If he's going to sing a national anthem, You put him in a regular
• 2:46
  season game when you can start a runner on second base and you're
• 2:48
  not going to go the full 18. But that's how wild is that,
• 2:51
  though. 218 inning games, a World Series history, and he's
• 2:54
  the national anthem singer at both of them at Dodger Stadium.
• 2:57
  Well, he's got the song called We Who Needs Pictures?
• 3:01
  Well, you might need to do a new version of Who Needs Extras.
• 3:06
  See if we can get that in the works for Brad Paisley.
• 3:09
  But though, here's the On the 18 inning game, the Dodgers leave
• 3:16
  18 on base. The Blue Jays leave 19 combined
• 3:21
  37 runners left on base in that game.
• 3:26
  And it ended, as we talked about, with Frederick Freeman's
• 3:29
  home run in the 18th. And this is just what baseball
• 3:33
  is now. There's no stringing together
• 3:36
  base it after base it to school. Like it just doesn't.
• 3:38
  Everybody just waits for that home run.
• 3:41
  You just wait for that big hit. And I mean, that's kind of what
• 3:44
  baseball is now. Like, it's just totally
• 3:46
  different than what we grew up with.
• 3:47
  But they leave 37 on and just wait for that solo shot to end
• 3:51
  it. I mean, no, you're right, but
• 3:54
  the Dodgers do have, I mean, when you have a line up like the
• 3:56
  Dodgers, I'm almost waiting for them to do that.
• 3:59
  But they're all home run hitters.
• 4:00
  They all have the capacity to do it, especially with them in the
• 4:03
  Blue Jays too. I mean, they've got some some
• 4:05
  guys that can match over there. So I mean, you don't expect it
• 4:08
  to go 18. You expect it to go maybe one or
• 4:10
  two more for somebody to just hit that one bomb and you know,
• 4:13
  we're going home. But to go another 9 innings with
• 4:17
  nobody scoring like that's, that's wild A.
• 4:20
  Whole other game, yeah, You know, we, we talked about some
• 4:24
  dumb rules in sports like the trading 2 point, like 2 point
• 4:30
  tries in college football overtime, the over the extra
• 4:35
  inning rule in the regular season in Major League Baseball
• 4:38
  where they put a runner on 2nd. To me is is equally as dumb as
• 4:42
  that or maybe even Dumber. I just hate it.
• 4:45
  I know I get what they're trying to do.
• 4:47
  I just hate it. But it's good to see in the
• 4:49
  world in the playoffs that we're not doing that.
• 4:53
  I think that they have it figured out like we play 162
• 4:57
  games. If we're going to extra innings,
• 4:59
  we don't need to have 141516 inning games in June and July.
• 5:04
  Like we don't need that. Like baseball, I just hate it.
• 5:08
  But baseball to its purest form as you don't do that and so they
• 5:11
  don't do that in the playoffs as they should not.
• 5:13
  It should be a pure form of baseball, but when we you know
• 5:16
  when when you're in June and July and you're playing 162
• 5:19
  games, let's just get this thing over with.
• 5:21
  Like you start them on second base, you force.
• 5:24
  I mean, you have to do something.
• 5:25
  It's not like in college football where you start inside
• 5:29
  the 30, you just kick the field goal when you fail.
• 5:31
  You can't just score the runner on second by not doing anything.
• 5:34
  You have to lay, you have to lay down that bunt.
• 5:36
  You got to get that base hit. You got to still do something.
• 5:39
  So I mean. You can score without a hit.
• 5:41
  You can bun him over and hit a second.
• 5:42
  No, you can, but you still have to execute.
• 5:44
  You have to execute like they're not starting him on third base
• 5:47
  where you know A1 fly ball scores them like you have to
• 5:50
  execute. So I'm fine with it during the
• 5:52
  regular season. I think they've got to figure it
• 5:53
  out. Well, and then just going back
• 5:55
  to the pure form of baseball in the playoffs, yeah.
• 5:58
  But you know what, they made all these changes a couple and I
• 6:00
  know we're getting off on a tangent a little bit, but they
• 6:02
  made all these tangent changes with the DH, you know, the pitch
• 6:05
  clock, the bases being bigger. Like I've gotten used to all
• 6:09
  that and I'm still not really used to the the imaginary runner
• 6:13
  on 2nd. But I get, I get the point.
• 6:16
  It's a long season. You don't want to get people
• 6:19
  hurt when playing 18 any games in May.
• 6:21
  But still, I I do hate it. But Shohei Otani in that game, 4
• 6:25
  for 4/2 double S2 home, two home runs, three runs scored, three
• 6:28
  RBIs and five walks, reached base all nine times.
• 6:33
  That's insane. All nine times.
• 6:35
  I think they weren't pitching to him in extras.
• 6:37
  Like he comes off the performance where he hits 3
• 6:39
  bombs and pitches 6 shutout and 10 strikeouts and gets the win
• 6:43
  in the clinching game of the NLCS and like, you just don't
• 6:46
  like, like, how can this guy get any better?
• 6:48
  And then he just goes and gets on base nine straight times, 9
• 6:51
  for nine in a World Series game where he hits 2 bombs, couple
• 6:55
  double s. And then finally the Blue Jays
• 6:58
  were like, you know, this guy's not beating us.
• 7:00
  We're going to just walk in every single time as they should
• 7:03
  have. But it's it's just insane what
• 7:06
  this guy continues to do. But it that's not the end of the
• 7:09
  story, OK, as less than 24 hours later, he's your starting
• 7:14
  pitcher. He is your starting.
• 7:15
  Pitcher after being on base nine times.
• 7:18
  Yeah. He comes back less than 24 hours
• 7:23
  to start a game. Didn't have his best stuff.
• 7:26
  He did not. But still went 6 plus and he
• 7:31
  gave up 400 runs. Vlad's two run shot in the 7th I
• 7:35
  believe kind of put the game away.
• 7:37
  But coming off of a performance where he reached the base 9
• 7:41
  times and the game finished less than 24 hours, he pitched into
• 7:45
  the 7th inning for the first time as a Dodger.
• 7:49
  He has never done it before and this is when he does it.
• 7:52
  It's the first time he had pitched him to the 7th inning
• 7:54
  since August the 9th of 23 when he was still at the Angels,
• 7:57
  which and he didn't get out in the in the 7th.
• 7:59
  But just the fact that he went that far after doing what he did
• 8:04
  the night before is I mean, it's just another thing to talk about
• 8:09
  with Shell AI mean we've just never seen anything like this
• 8:11
  before I. Think he's he's, he's just an
• 8:15
  animal. He's just, he's not human.
• 8:17
  Like he's just not a few. He's a robot.
• 8:20
  He's a robot. And as we said multiple times,
• 8:23
  he's he's two players. And I mean, that kind of sums it
• 8:26
  up when you you do what you do offensively and then you come
• 8:29
  start the next game. I mean, when it's when it's all
• 8:32
  said and done, you're talking about him as probably could be
• 8:35
  the best baseball player of all time.
• 8:38
  I mean, he's been talked about as being the best athlete of all
• 8:40
  time. Yeah.
• 8:42
  I mean, as in the conversation, yeah.
• 8:44
  He's doing things we've never seen before, which in an earlier
• 8:47
  episode, we tried to compare it to things like his performance
• 8:51
  when he, I mean, in Game 4, the NLCS, it's just it's remarkable.
• 8:56
  And, and on the other side, I mean, Vlad Guerrero hit his
• 8:59
  eighth home run of the postseason earlier tonight to
• 9:01
  give the Blue Jays a 2A lead. I mean, he's not being talked
• 9:05
  about enough what he's done in the postseason.
• 9:07
  I know we talked about him a little earlier, but he continues
• 9:10
  to write. Yeah, no, indeed, he's earning
• 9:13
  that. He's earning that extension that
• 9:14
  he got earlier in the year, no doubt.
• 9:16
  Yeah, so, but no Game 5 going on right now.
• 9:20
  I think it's still 2 to nothing. We'll I guess by the time we get
• 9:24
  on here on Sunday, that thing will be all wrapped up.
• 9:26
  We'll see if the Dodgers can be the first team since the Yankees
• 9:30
  in the 90s to win back-to-back World Series or or if the Blue
• 9:34
  Jays can win their first World Series since Joe Carter walk
• 9:37
  them off in 1993. And we talked a lot of college
• 9:44
  football on Sunday, so we won't get a a ton into it this week.
• 9:48
  But looks like Ed Oderon. Let's come back to LSU.
• 9:53
  I mean, do you blame him? I mean, coming off the national
• 9:56
  title that he had and was that 2019 two?
• 9:59
  1019. With that loaded NFL roster of
• 10:02
  players that he had down in Baton Rouge, then he follows it
• 10:06
  up with two just complete kind of duds of a season.
• 10:09
  I mean, they never were under 500.
• 10:10
  They they were five and five and.
• 10:12
  Six at 500 at 500 those two seasons, but I.
• 10:16
  Think there are some other things going on that kind of led
• 10:18
  to his dismissal? I think, I think old Edge has
• 10:20
  been sitting on the couch a little too long now.
• 10:22
  He's he's kind of bored. He's watched all the seasons of
• 10:24
  Breaking Bad and Friends and all the other TV shows.
• 10:27
  He's probably gone through the Rolodex on those.
• 10:29
  And he's just like, you know what, I need to get out of the
• 10:31
  house. I need something to do.
• 10:33
  LSU was looking for a head coach.
• 10:35
  I want him a national title. Let's see if we can make this
• 10:38
  work and if I'm LSU, I'm going to pass on that.
• 10:40
  But good for him to try. But I don't know, I don't
• 10:44
  remember the governor of LSU's name.
• 10:46
  But did you see this? I heard I heard his accent today
• 10:49
  when he was talking about. Just clearly from the Bayou, but
• 10:54
  there he's like, our AD is not making this higher.
• 10:56
  We'll put together a committee. I'll let Donald Trump do it
• 10:58
  before I let him do. It do you do you blame him after
• 11:01
  the the two contracts and the buyouts that that, that this AD
• 11:05
  is hired? I mean, the Jimbo Fisher
• 11:07
  contract and now this Les Miles contract, like probably the two
• 11:13
  biggest buyouts of all time and you're paying these guys
• 11:16
  combined over $100 million to do nothing.
• 11:19
  Yeah, $54 million for Brian Kelly and they broke it out per
• 11:23
  month. Have you seen this number?
• 11:26
  I did. I've forgotten what it was, but
• 11:28
  yes. $800,000. Yeah, that's right. 8, $100,000.
• 11:38
  To get out of bed, pour yourself a pot of coffee and sit on your
• 11:41
  porch. And you don't even have to have
• 11:43
  a fake accent anymore. You can be yourself, you.
• 11:45
  Know you have to leave the house, you have to leave the
• 11:47
  house. You can just sit in your house
• 11:49
  all day for 800,000. So I, I don't know how serious
• 11:55
  Eddie, Eddie O is going to be a candidate for that job, But if
• 11:59
  he wants, if he really is wants to be in consideration, I guess
• 12:02
  he has to hit the the Oval Office as DJT is going to be
• 12:07
  making the decision on who's the next coach at, at LSU.
• 12:12
  I mean good for all Ed for trying.
• 12:14
  I mean, everybody in all these openings, everybody just keeps
• 12:17
  talking about Lane, Kiffin Lane, like he is just, he's the hot
• 12:22
  commodity right now. I don't know like.
• 12:25
  Which is wild because he he had failed stints at USC.
• 12:29
  He's had failed stints almost everywhere.
• 12:32
  USC, like he's got Ole Miss in a good spot, but they're not like
• 12:39
  dominating like they're good, but they're.
• 12:42
  Consistently top ten, top 15. They consistently are winning
• 12:46
  8-9 games. They haven't been to a playoff
• 12:49
  though. Which no and but consistently
• 12:52
  top 1015 consistently 8-9 wins at at Ole Miss is great.
• 12:57
  That's great, but at a place like LSU or a place like
• 13:02
  Florida, a place like Ole Miss and maybe grates a stretch, it's
• 13:06
  good. It's really good.
• 13:08
  But that's not going to fly at at places like that.
• 13:13
  No. And I mean, it's not like he's a
• 13:15
  young up and coming guy. He's had chances at many places.
• 13:19
  And he also is a guy that if he might, he's not going to stay
• 13:23
  there. What's the longest he stayed at
• 13:25
  one job? Not very long.
• 13:27
  I just I don't understand the affection towards Lane Kiffin
• 13:32
  right now. He's a good coach, no me wrong.
• 13:38
  He's a good coach, great offensive mind.
• 13:40
  I like I said, I he's he's good. He's just hasn't hasn't been to
• 13:44
  a playoff yet, hasn't won a national title.
• 13:47
  No, he just doesn't have, to me, the credentials that I think LSU
• 13:52
  would want or a Florida would want or a team that is, you
• 13:56
  know, expects to win 1011 games and be in the playoff and win
• 14:00
  national titles. Like he just hasn't done that
• 14:02
  yet. Not to say he can't do it, but
• 14:05
  he just hasn't done it yet. Or really win a big game.
• 14:08
  I mean, they beat Oklahoma last week, they beat Georgia last
• 14:10
  year. But I mean, I guess Georgia at
• 14:13
  but that was at home. They blew.
• 14:15
  They blew the game late against Georgia this year.
• 14:17
  Yeah. I I, I mean, maybe that just
• 14:20
  shows you that the cupboard is that bare for head coaches that
• 14:24
  are available. But I mean, his, his name's
• 14:27
  everywhere and, and it's on like his the odds are all including
• 14:31
  Lane Kiffin as the top five, I think to be the coach at
• 14:34
  Florida. So we'll see.
• 14:37
  But and also if I'm him, we've talked about this before.
• 14:40
  I don't know if I'll leave anyways, because the pressure is
• 14:43
  going to be a little less at Ole Miss.
• 14:44
  You're already having success. They're happy with what you're
• 14:46
  doing there and what you're doing is you're consistently top
• 14:50
  ten, top 15 and win at 8-9 games.
• 14:52
  That's not going to fly those other places.
• 14:54
  Yeah, Nope. So the schedule not not as good
• 14:59
  as it's been the last couple weeks.
• 15:01
  We get Penn State and Ohio State, which at the beginning of
• 15:04
  the season was regarded as one of the best games of the year,
• 15:07
  not so much, no. Now as Ohio State is a 20 1/2
• 15:12
  point favorite in that game. I don't think anybody would
• 15:14
  expected that at the beginning of the season.
• 15:16
  Vanderbilt goes to Texas. Texas is a 2 1/2 point favorite
• 15:22
  at home against the doors. And that's a, that's a, it's
• 15:26
  almost a must win if you're Vanderbilt, if you're trying to
• 15:28
  get to that playoff, you got to find a way to win this game.
• 15:31
  Yeah, and I mean, it's see if Texas can just keep doing what
• 15:35
  they're doing, not playing well and figuring out ways to win
• 15:37
  late. Yeah, Indiana goes to Maryland
• 15:42
  and they're only 2021 1/2 point favorites.
• 15:45
  I think that sounds like a pretty good number for the way
• 15:48
  the Hoosiers have been playing. Yeah.
• 15:52
  And then the big one where game day is going is Scott
• 15:56
  Satterfield gets his moment as they go to Salt Lake City to
• 16:01
  play and face the utes. I mean, Utah's a 10 1/2 point
• 16:06
  favorite. I think that's a high number the
• 16:08
  way Cincinnati's been playing. I I I Utah, I mean you.
• 16:13
  Had them in the top. You had them at 12, you had them
• 16:16
  at the 12th best team in the country.
• 16:17
  Yeah, on on Sunday. And then Utah coming off, they
• 16:20
  just lost the BYU, right? Yeah, Utah, will they be?
• 16:26
  No, they. Just they just, they lost
• 16:27
  Colorado. They did.
• 16:28
  They lost the BYU the week before.
• 16:30
  Correct. So they just housed Colorado.
• 16:32
  But coming off, you know, two weeks ago, losing the BYU,
• 16:35
  Cincinnati I think is just as good as BYU is.
• 16:37
  I mean, I know it's at Utah. I don't.
• 16:40
  Know about that? I know you didn't put BYU in the
• 16:43
  the top top 12, you put Cincy out, Cincy over them.
• 16:45
  But I'd favor BIU if they did. Man, they play each other here
• 16:49
  in a couple weeks. So we'll we'll find out, we'll
• 16:50
  find out soon. But people, I think a lot of
• 16:53
  people are sleeping on Cincinnati and I I think that's
• 16:56
  a bad choice. So, I mean, I don't know if
• 16:57
  Cincinnati wins this game, but I think it's close one I.
• 17:00
  Mean, I don't know if they're sleeping.
• 17:02
  They're all way up to 17 in the league, and they weren't
• 17:04
  anywhere in the conversation at the beginning of the year after
• 17:07
  losing 20 to 17 to. Nebraska, I mean, they were
• 17:10
  ranked, they were ranked after like the 4th week of the season.
• 17:13
  They've they've been sitting there like 2324 for the last
• 17:15
  couple weeks. They finally now have started
• 17:17
  making their way up because I think maybe more people are
• 17:19
  taking notice, but they've been ranked for the last couple weeks
• 17:22
  and just nobody's talking about. But I mean, to me that's the
• 17:26
  most enticing game of the year. Got to wait till 10:15 to watch
• 17:29
  that one on Saturday night, but well.
• 17:32
  Don't sleep on the Oklahoma, Tennessee game.
• 17:34
  Oh, I forgot that one. That's that's your job.
• 17:37
  Maybe not. You can't let me forget.
• 17:38
  Games all to sleep over there my guy.
• 17:40
  Come on now. Yeah, Aguiar against Materia, we
• 17:45
  we kind of talked about Materia's game on Saturday where
• 17:49
  wasn't always making great decisions and wasn't making
• 17:51
  great throws. It since he's got hurt, he
• 17:53
  hasn't been the same guy. And I mean, I mean, they got the
• 17:58
  ugly short uniforms in football, but Joey Aguilar that that kids
• 18:01
  fun to watch. Yeah, yeah, Tennessee favorite,
• 18:05
  3 1/2 at home. I think, you know, this is one
• 18:08
  of those games of whoever the home team is, I think that's
• 18:11
  probably who wins. I think they're probably both
• 18:13
  evenly matched a little bit, both good teams.
• 18:16
  But since it's at Kneeland and it's at it's a night game at
• 18:19
  Kneeland, think you got to go with the balls?
• 18:24
  Yeah, I mean, I think they're trending in a in a better
• 18:26
  direction. So I mean, they just absolutely
• 18:30
  put it on Kentucky on on Saturday.
• 18:33
  Kentucky's had moved the ball a little bit the last two games,
• 18:35
  but the defense on Saturday and they just couldn't figure out a
• 18:38
  way to score against Texas two weeks ago.
• 18:40
  So I guess we'll move on to the to the NFL.
• 18:45
  We were doing the show on Sunday night as the Packers in the
• 18:49
  second-half just pulled away from a Steelers team who was
• 18:52
  struggling to stop anybody. That the defense, I pulled this
• 18:56
  number. I wish, let's see how fast I can
• 18:59
  pull it up. But the defenses in the AFC
• 19:02
  North is, it's like the worst defense here.
• 19:07
  It is. They are in the AFC North.
• 19:10
  Defenses are allowing an average combined 27 1/2 points per game.
• 19:20
  And in the history of the AFC North, they have never combined
• 19:23
  average more than 23.3 points per game.
• 19:27
  That was 2018. I mean, you look at the AFC
• 19:29
  North, you've got Pittsburgh, Baltimore and Cleveland, who are
• 19:33
  always known for their defenses. Cincinnati obviously is never
• 19:36
  been known for their defense. They are the, they are the team
• 19:39
  that stands out from that pack. But I mean, Baltimore's defense,
• 19:44
  Pittsburgh's defense, they're just, they're just not very
• 19:47
  good. And that's why the North still,
• 19:51
  even with, I mean, the Ravens starting at one and five are
• 19:53
  still in it. The Bengals, despite losing to
• 19:56
  The Jets, I mean, heck, they just don't blow that game.
• 20:00
  They're 1/2 game out of first. It's it's a different North than
• 20:04
  than we're used to seeing. Yeah, I mean, you talk like we
• 20:09
  stick with the North for a second like Faceburg now coming
• 20:12
  like they they lose to the Bengals, they lose to the
• 20:15
  Packers like they're coming back down.
• 20:18
  The Ravens finally figured it out against the Bears without
• 20:20
  Lamar Jackson, and now that Lamar, they.
• 20:23
  Went back to Snoop. They went to Snoop Snoop, Snoop
• 20:26
  Huntley with that one. Cooper, rush out there.
• 20:29
  Yeah, Snoop Huntley, the old reliable came in, got the win.
• 20:33
  But look at this like they're the Ravens are two and five, but
• 20:36
  they're they're scheduled. It's the Dolphins, the Vikings,
• 20:40
  the Browns, then The Jets, the Bengals, the Steelers, and then
• 20:45
  the Bengals again. They're about to run off seven
• 20:48
  in a row. Like, if you want to place a
• 20:51
  futures bet on the Baltimore Ravens to win the Super Bowl,
• 20:54
  now's your time to do it. Well, I don't know if you know
• 20:57
  this, but Vegas knows what their schedule is too.
• 21:00
  Yeah, it's not. It's not something that.
• 21:03
  But plays it now before they win the seven in a row.
• 21:05
  Plays it now. Yeah.
• 21:07
  Then when in last week without Lamar was huge was was
• 21:11
  absolutely huge and you know, get a little momentum and like
• 21:15
  you said, they've they've got kind of a weak schedule.
• 21:17
  The Bengals were supposed to have a weak schedule but didn't
• 21:20
  take advantage of it. No, but if I had to pick an AFC
• 21:25
  North winner right now, it's the Baltimore Ravens, and I think
• 21:27
  they probably end up winning this division by 2-3 games.
• 21:30
  Well, there's your, there's your number.
• 21:32
  I'm curious to see what that would be on one of the betting
• 21:35
  apps them to win the North, because, I mean, the Steelers
• 21:39
  were a clear favorite a couple weeks ago, but I think that
• 21:40
  number's dropped pretty, pretty drastically here the last couple
• 21:44
  weeks. And then on Monday night, the
• 21:48
  Chiefs, after they were tied at half, I believe against
• 21:51
  Washington, just pulled away in the second-half.
• 21:54
  And the Chiefs are getting healthy.
• 21:59
  And I think despite the O12 start, they're now at 5:00 and
• 22:03
  3:00. It could be argued that maybe
• 22:06
  they're the best team in football.
• 22:09
  I hate to say it, but yeah, they probably are.
• 22:13
  Like, you just can't kill them. You thought that they might have
• 22:16
  taken a step back after the first three weeks of the season,
• 22:18
  you know, after that Jacksonville game.
• 22:20
  And then all of a sudden, like they just look like the Chiefs,
• 22:23
  the normal Chiefs. They got a shoe rice back.
• 22:25
  You know, they've gotten a little bit healthier and then
• 22:28
  they just look good again. I mean I.
• 22:30
  Was never going to bury them after an over to the start.
• 22:32
  They're just too damn good. You know, the way they won the
• 22:36
  majority of their games last year where they all were close
• 22:38
  and they figured out ways to win, that was all going to
• 22:41
  balance out, you figure. And then they start off slow.
• 22:44
  So maybe, yeah, you think they've lost a step or two, but
• 22:48
  they've they just look like the same old cheese right now.
• 22:52
  They sure do. So what do you want to do?
• 22:55
  You want to do trick or treat? You want to do rankings?
• 22:57
  I'll let you call it. We can do both.
• 23:00
  I mean, it's, it's the spirit of Halloween.
• 23:01
  What's what's I'll tell you a few teams, you tell me if it's a
• 23:05
  trick, meaning that the record is is it's a little bit of a
• 23:08
  trick. That means they're not as good
• 23:10
  as what what you know the the perception might be or if
• 23:13
  they're for real, are they a treat?
• 23:16
  So let's see, we'll we'll start we'll start in the in the AFC
• 23:19
  East with the division leading New England Patriots at six and
• 23:22
  two. Is this a playoff team?
• 23:25
  Is this like a contender? Is this a trick or is this a
• 23:27
  treat? Well, I mean, and they're making
• 23:31
  trades too. They're getting rid of some of
• 23:33
  their their guys like in their six and two.
• 23:36
  It's just it's kind of confusing.
• 23:38
  I I think they're a little early when you had Drake May as Tom
• 23:42
  Brady on Sunday, which we had a few too many Coors lights there.
• 23:46
  But I mean, you look at their schedule moving forward and
• 23:49
  they've got the Falcons this week and you just do not know
• 23:52
  whatever you're ever going to get with the Falcons week to
• 23:55
  week. And then they go at Tampa Bay
• 23:58
  and then then they get The Jets and the Bengals and the Giants.
• 24:03
  I I'm going to go. I mean, if if you're saying
• 24:06
  trick that means then when in the East, then I'm definitely
• 24:10
  going treat because I think the Bills are still the team to be
• 24:12
  in that division. OK, all right, all right.
• 24:16
  Let's go with the Indianapolis Colts.
• 24:19
  Seven in one. The best record in the NFL are
• 24:25
  the Colts. Are you bought trick or treat?
• 24:27
  The Colts are the best team in the NFL.
• 24:31
  So trick only means best team in the NFL.
• 24:34
  For this one, there's seven and one.
• 24:36
  I mean, they're clearly the best team in their division.
• 24:38
  They're going to make the playoffs, Yeah, but there's no
• 24:40
  trick there but trick or treat. Are they the trick?
• 24:43
  Best team in the NFL? Indianapolis Coats.
• 24:46
  Yeah. I give credit to teams that just
• 24:51
  take care of teams that are not as good as them and put them
• 24:54
  away early. They beat the Raiders by 30,
• 24:57
  plus they beat the Titans by 20, plus they they've won four
• 25:02
  straight. I think three of those wins have
• 25:04
  been by two scores or more. You know who has the biggest
• 25:08
  point differential in all of the NFL?
• 25:12
  I'm guessing the Colts, yeah. At plus 1/16.
• 25:17
  But Despite that, do I think they're the best team in the
• 25:20
  NFL? I I can't.
• 25:23
  I can't If we were doing our rankings.
• 25:25
  I'm not putting the Colts first. So if that's the requirement to
• 25:28
  be the trick, then I'm going to have to go treat.
• 25:32
  All right, all right, let's go down to the West then with the
• 25:36
  look over the Denver Broncos sitting there at 6:00 and 2:00.
• 25:40
  I've had some crazy wins and some crazy about 1 crazy loss,
• 25:45
  but the crazy wins where they came back against put 33 up on
• 25:48
  the in the fourth quarter on the Giants came back and scored.
• 25:51
  You know all those points in the fourth quarter to win at Philly
• 25:53
  Six and two, leading the AFC West to the trick or a treat
• 25:58
  that the Denver Broncos will win the AFC West.
• 26:02
  No, I mean, we just talked about how good the.
• 26:04
  Chiefs talked about the Chiefs I but I think.
• 26:08
  Their defense is really good, but I mean Patrick Mahomes
• 26:12
  Bonex, like, I mean, is this really serious like.
• 26:18
  I mean, they lost, didn't didn't the Broncos beat the Chiefs last
• 26:22
  year with those two quarterbacks?
• 26:26
  I mean, they did, they beat him in the last game of the season
• 26:28
  when they didn't play anybody to keep the Bengals out of the
• 26:30
  playoffs. I.
• 26:31
  Think they beat him twice last year, did they not?
• 26:33
  I'm not sure off top my head, but the the Chiefs didn't lose
• 26:36
  too many games last year, so no. But yeah, I'm I'm not a bone X
• 26:42
  believer. I think their defense is really
• 26:44
  good. But I mean to be honest with
• 26:48
  you, they should be the seven in one team and the Colts should be
• 26:50
  6 and 2 with that Filbo debacle that happened in Indianapolis.
• 26:56
  Yeah, I know like you, you're right.
• 26:58
  Like they are that one debacle away from having the best record
• 27:00
  in the NFL. But you're going Chiefs will end
• 27:03
  up winning the division, so you're.
• 27:04
  Going yes, I'm going straight. OK, are.
• 27:06
  You going am I going to go trick on any of these?
• 27:09
  Let's go. Let's go to the NFC.
• 27:11
  Let's go to the NFC here. I mean, the NFC East is wrapped
• 27:14
  up. Let's go, let's go out West
• 27:18
  competitive division. We got the Seattle Seahawks at
• 27:20
  5:00 and 2:00. I got a clear favorite team of
• 27:22
  this on this division. I know it's the Seahawks we all
• 27:25
  know you love. Them.
• 27:26
  Oh, all right. Well, we have the Seahawks at
• 27:28
  5:00 and 2:00. We have the.
• 27:30
  Seahawks guy, You're the one that put him in the top 10 two
• 27:32
  weeks ago. You also have to win your you
• 27:34
  had them in the in the playoffs or something at the beginning of
• 27:36
  the year, winning the division. But anyways, five and two
• 27:39
  Seattle Seahawks, 5 and two LA Rams and the five and three San
• 27:43
  Francisco 49ers. Trick or treat that the Seattle
• 27:46
  Seahawks will win the NFC West. No, because I like the Rams in
• 27:53
  this division. I I like their defense.
• 27:57
  I you know, Mcveigh's been around the block, Matt, Matt
• 28:00
  Stafford is still slinging it down there.
• 28:02
  I mean, they're they went in without Puka.
• 28:04
  They'll get him back. I, I just, I think the Rams are
• 28:08
  clearly the best team in in the NFC West.
• 28:11
  The Niners have just had so many injuries.
• 28:13
  I. Don't know how you say clearly.
• 28:14
  Clearly is a strong statement. Clearly might be a little too
• 28:17
  strong, but I I, I mean, if you if I was going to bet on a
• 28:21
  winner to win the Asus, I would I would definitely go with the
• 28:23
  Rams all. Right, All right, we'll do one
• 28:26
  more here. We'll do the Green Bay Packers
• 28:30
  sitting at 5-1 and one the only one lost team in the NFC
• 28:35
  currently ahead of the Detroit Lions, who they beat Week 1,
• 28:39
  actually put just absolutely house them.
• 28:41
  But they also have the clunker of a game where they lost to the
• 28:43
  Browns with the best record in the NFC currently.
• 28:47
  Trick or treat that the Green Bay Packers win the NFC
• 28:51
  Championship and go to the Super Bowl.
• 28:54
  Are they the best team in the NFC?
• 28:56
  We'll say that. Are they the best team in the
• 28:57
  NFC? No, I've got they're in the top
• 28:59
  4, but I mean, I, I would have the Lions ahead of them.
• 29:04
  I would have the Eagles ahead of them.
• 29:06
  Even though the Packers smashed the Lions all right.
• 29:09
  Yes, I, I think, I mean they were dealing with two
• 29:14
  coordinators being switched out. I mean, it's get it's week 1,
• 29:19
  you can kind of throw it aside. I know the Lions lost to the
• 29:22
  Chiefs, but we're talking about how good the the Chiefs have
• 29:25
  been playing here lately. I mean, yeah, I would, I would
• 29:28
  have the Lions, the Eagles and honestly, I would, I don't know.
• 29:32
  I I think a couple weeks ago and I had the Bucks above the
• 29:35
  Packers, but I think the Packers have kind of passed them to be
• 29:38
  in the the three spot. OK, so you're just full of full
• 29:44
  of treats and no tricks on this one, huh?
• 29:46
  No tricks bro. I could give you an easy trip
• 29:49
  just so you. Or no treats all tricks.
• 29:51
  All tricks, no treats. I mean, we could give you an
• 29:53
  easy one and just say the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the best team
• 29:56
  in the NF S NFC South. I mean you can.
• 29:59
  Do that every year, even when the bucks are terrible and the.
• 30:05
  I just don't understand what the Falcons are like.
• 30:07
  I can't figure that out. Nobody can.
• 30:10
  Nobody can. I mean, it's a lot of it's the
• 30:12
  NFL, but the Falcons are playing a big role in that just because,
• 30:15
  I mean, they beat the Bills. Yeah, on Monday night, Yeah,
• 30:21
  with the commanders beat the bills, they lose by 30 to the
• 30:23
  Panthers. Like, I don't know, I don't get
• 30:27
  it. Do you want to run through a top
• 30:29
  10 real quick? If you want to, I mean.
• 30:33
  We kind of already talked about it, but I think we can run
• 30:35
  through it really fast. All right, who gets first pick?
• 30:38
  Did you get first pick Latin up? I got first pick last time.
• 30:40
  You can go for it all. Right.
• 30:44
  You know, I talked about the Colts having the biggest point
• 30:46
  differential. Yep.
• 30:47
  Do you know as the second most point differential?
• 30:53
  I do it is the Kansas City Chiefs with plus 83.
• 31:00
  Yep. I'm moving.
• 31:03
  They were five last time we did this.
• 31:06
  I'm moving them up to 1. Wow, OK.
• 31:09
  At 5:00 and 3:00. OK, I mean, I'm going to put my
• 31:14
  number one pick last week. I guess I'll have to put him in
• 31:16
  #2. I'm still, even though they had
• 31:18
  a bye week, I'm going with the Detroit Lions.
• 31:22
  It probably makes sense that they're behind the Chiefs
• 31:23
  because they did lose to the Chiefs, so we'll put Detroit at
• 31:26
  #2. All right.
• 31:28
  Well, I mean, I'll keep with the the point differential because I
• 31:31
  think that's a a stat that really matters.
• 31:34
  And I mean, they deserve it. They're seven and one.
• 31:37
  I'll put the Colts at 3:00. All right, top ten team or top
• 31:42
  top three team for you? I I like that.
• 31:43
  I like that fourth choice for me.
• 31:48
  Green Bay Packers. I think they're probably right
• 31:52
  there. You know, they they had a nice
• 31:54
  win over the of the Steelers on on Monday night and or Sunday
• 31:59
  night. And then, you know, like I said,
• 32:00
  they beat the crap out of the the lions to start the year.
• 32:03
  So don't they can go overlooked, but their offense is just
• 32:06
  fantastic and I'm just going to go Detroit Lions #4.
• 32:11
  All right, I'll, I'll go Eagles. I mean, their past, they're
• 32:16
  already made the playoffs because they're in such a bad
• 32:18
  decision division. So I'll go them next.
• 32:23
  Number six, I mean this team, like I said, just finds keeps on
• 32:26
  finding ways to win and without a fluke, not a fluke, but
• 32:30
  without that bad penalty to give the Colts that field goal at the
• 32:34
  end of the game, they would be 71.
• 32:35
  So Bo Knicks and the the Denver Broncos.
• 32:39
  I mean, I don't know. I don't, I don't understand how
• 32:42
  you you, you just don't. Well, the Bills still haven't
• 32:44
  been said, so they're clearly the Broncos are not above the
• 32:47
  Bills. When the Buffalo when Buffalo
• 32:49
  goes to to out to Atlanta and loses, it's hard to put them in
• 32:53
  the top five. Well, Bills at 7.
• 32:55
  I mean, it's it's one game. They're still better than the
• 32:57
  Broncos if they played each other.
• 32:58
  Right now, you're not picking the Broncos.
• 33:00
  I would pick the Broncos. All right, who you got 8?
• 33:03
  I mean, New England Patriots went and beat Buffalo in Buffalo
• 33:06
  and you got to tell me Ocos can't beat Buffalo, man,
• 33:09
  Unfortunately, at 8, I'm probably going to go with the
• 33:11
  division leading New England Patriots.
• 33:14
  I mean, they, they, they're just playing good football.
• 33:17
  They've they've won out Buffalo, You know, they just continue to
• 33:20
  win. I mean, they're putting it on
• 33:22
  some teams like they beat the Titans, 3113 beat the Browns,
• 33:25
  3213 beat the Panthers 42 to 13. So like, not only are they
• 33:29
  winning, they're winning some of these games big, just like you
• 33:32
  said, like with the Colts, the Patriots in that same boat.
• 33:35
  And then I'll go, I'll go bucks for a night.
• 33:41
  OK, they're. Going to win the AFC now.
• 33:44
  We had them at what, 2 the last time we did this two weeks ago
• 33:47
  so. Where are your?
• 33:48
  Where's your LA Rams? Where your LA Rams?
• 33:51
  Tell me, LA Rams. I never ruined a pickle.
• 33:53
  If if you didn't pick the Broncos already I would have
• 33:56
  picked the Rams. Seattle picking all these AFC
• 34:00
  AFC teams when? Yeah.
• 34:04
  Seattle, See, I'm on the last pick here, Tim.
• 34:06
  We're going to go, we're going to go with the NFC West tied for
• 34:10
  the the lead there. The Seattle Seahawks, who I
• 34:12
  think are the best team in the NFC West.
• 34:14
  We're going Seahawks at #10. So I'm looking at the, so I
• 34:19
  think the Rams are the only team that fell out and who's who's
• 34:24
  the team that we put in that we didn't have in last time, the
• 34:26
  Broncos, so. Yeah.
• 34:34
  All right, well, in addition to college football and the NFL,
• 34:42
  this weekend we get some horse racing.
• 34:45
  I love horse racing. The Breeders Cup Classic and
• 34:52
  some bad news today as you're your Derby winner sovereignty,
• 34:59
  you're also your your Belmont winner and won four straight
• 35:03
  since winning the Derby is out with a fever.
• 35:07
  So we'll be scratched from the Derby.
• 35:09
  So that or from the from the classic, which does kind of it
• 35:14
  the but you look at that field and it's still stacked, very
• 35:17
  stacked. You still have journalism, you
• 35:19
  still have fierceness. Do you still have mine frame?
• 35:21
  You still have Sierra Leone, you still have Forever Young.
• 35:25
  It's a loaded field. We we are not handicappers.
• 35:29
  On my Twitter profile I say I'm I'm trying to be an handicapper
• 35:33
  but this was about 3 years ago and I have felt miserably.
• 35:37
  You do, don't you? Have you have a degree in some
• 35:39
  kind of horse handicapping from the university, Do you?
• 35:42
  Not I. Got I got my business
• 35:43
  certificate at the University of Louisville and in the horse
• 35:46
  racing industry. So there you go.
• 35:48
  You know, a little. Bit does not help you win bets,
• 35:50
  I've learned that. Yeah.
• 35:52
  I've learned that, but I think we got to make our picks.
• 35:57
  Yeah. So Sierra Leone won the race
• 36:00
  last year. Yeah.
• 36:02
  Is back to defend the Crown. Yeah.
• 36:06
  Who do you got? Like you said, it's a loaded
• 36:09
  field. I mean, there's no doubt about
• 36:10
  it. And I think it it very
• 36:12
  unfortunate Sovereignty got scratched because I think
• 36:14
  Sovereignty was probably one of the best horses I've seen in my
• 36:18
  lifetime. I mean, you go back to the
• 36:20
  Triple Crown winners and American Pharaoh and no,
• 36:26
  Justify. Justify.
• 36:27
  Yeah, sorry, Justify. I mean, I think he was that good
• 36:30
  of a horse. He would have won the Triple
• 36:31
  Crown. He would.
• 36:32
  Have didn't run, wasn't hurt he didn't run if he had chose not
• 36:36
  to run. He did chose not.
• 36:38
  You. You're not in the conversation.
• 36:40
  You're not. I don't want to hear you being
• 36:42
  discussed with American Pharaoh and Justify.
• 36:44
  He's that. Good, you chose not to run.
• 36:47
  He will never be mentioned in that conversation because he did
• 36:50
  it right. Like Journalism ran all three
• 36:52
  races, won the Preakness and came in second in the Derby and
• 36:56
  the Belmont. He's closer to winning the
• 36:57
  Triple Crown than Sovereignty I. Don't know about that so.
• 37:01
  How's he not? He ran all three.
• 37:03
  You can't win if you don't run. Sovereignty won two of the
• 37:05
  three, Journalism won one, and then was the one.
• 37:07
  Sovereignty didn't run it. I mean, he won two of the three,
• 37:10
  so he's not Winning one of the three does not make you closer
• 37:13
  than winning two of the three. If this was a point system, who
• 37:15
  gets more points? Sovereignty.
• 37:17
  You won two times. No, no, you get points for
• 37:22
  finishing second. Oh, for.
• 37:23
  God's sakes, like we're not handing out participation
• 37:26
  trophies. The second place horses stop.
• 37:29
  Just stop with. That would you rather
• 37:30
  participate or not participate when you have a chance to win a
• 37:33
  Triple Crown? Oh, I would want if I was like
• 37:36
  if I was his owners, I would have participated, but he did it
• 37:39
  and he will not be. But now you're.
• 37:40
  Defending it. He won't be talked about as one
• 37:42
  of the great horses because he didn't run, but he legitimately
• 37:45
  is talented enough to be in that conversation because he was that
• 37:48
  good. He is that game.
• 37:49
  But like, look, this is the problem with not running when
• 37:53
  you're healthy, because now you're not healthy.
• 37:57
  So now you didn't get a chance to run in the Preakness because
• 37:59
  you chose not to. And now you don't get to choose
• 38:02
  chance to run in the Classic because you've got a fever.
• 38:06
  And I get you got to take care of the horse.
• 38:07
  I get that. But he had an opportunity to run
• 38:10
  in the Preakness to put himself on a way to winning a Triple
• 38:14
  Crown and they chose not to. And forever I think it that will
• 38:22
  be held against them. And I know that's the way that
• 38:24
  the industry is going. It just, I don't know, I felt
• 38:28
  like, oh, broken record. I'm talking about all these.
• 38:31
  The way baseball's played now I'm complaining.
• 38:32
  I just sound like an old guy but.
• 38:36
  I mean, I don't sound like that. I'll have another.
• 38:38
  Such a. You sound like the the owner,
• 38:40
  remember that owner from I'll Have Another that he won the 1st
• 38:43
  2 and horses came out and back and they beat him in the
• 38:46
  Belmont, the horses that didn't run and the Derby and Preakness
• 38:49
  and he got all picked out of shape about it.
• 38:50
  So you do sound like the old the old guy from the I'll Have
• 38:54
  another. I do like having another.
• 38:59
  Yeah, yeah. But anyways, he's not running so
• 39:02
  we can't talk about him anymore. But unfortunately I think he was
• 39:05
  the best horse. But it's hard to go against who
• 39:08
  I think is probably the second best horse in the field or now
• 39:11
  who I would put as the best horse.
• 39:13
  He is the four to one favorite. I've got to go with with
• 39:16
  fierceness. And fierceness would have been
• 39:19
  the Derby favorite last year had he not scratched.
• 39:22
  He was was there at the end, he LED.
• 39:26
  He should have won this the classic last year, but he
• 39:28
  didn't. He got rundown by Sierra Leone.
• 39:31
  Sierra Leone came from like 15 lengths out to beat him and and
• 39:35
  fierceness came in second. I think he's the best horse.
• 39:38
  He just like we talked about journalism as being one of those
• 39:41
  other contenders and pierceness just beat journalism back on
• 39:44
  August 30th. So he's coming off a a good race
• 39:50
  where he won with some other some other quality horses in the
• 39:52
  field, like I said, including journalism.
• 39:53
  But you know, he does every once in a while throw in that
• 39:56
  clunker. He came in fifth two starts ago.
• 39:58
  You know, he's got 13 career starts, only finishing the money
• 40:01
  ten of those 13 times. So when he's on, he's by far the
• 40:04
  best horse. But there is the possibility
• 40:07
  where he does throw in a clunker and that's something that could
• 40:10
  happen. But when he's on, he's the best
• 40:12
  horse. I got to go.
• 40:14
  I'm hoping he's on on Saturday and he wins that race.
• 40:17
  I, I, if he runs his best race, he's going to win.
• 40:21
  But just too often we don't see that.
• 40:23
  And it's almost, it's not a complete like bad race, good
• 40:27
  race, bad race, good race. But it's kind of been his
• 40:31
  mantra. So I'm going against fierceness.
• 40:36
  You, you talked about Sierra Leone, how he won last last
• 40:39
  year, you know, coming from the clouds and they're going to try
• 40:44
  to do that again this year. Chad Brown is training both
• 40:49
  Sierra Leone and contrary thinking.
• 40:51
  And they are also are owned by the the same ownership group.
• 40:55
  So they're going to use contrary thinking as a rabbit to try to
• 40:59
  build up the pace in this race to, to build up, you know, just
• 41:03
  the perfect scenario for Sierra Leone to to run back, to win
• 41:06
  back-to-back. But you know, and also forever
• 41:09
  young. I mean, the it's a horse that
• 41:12
  probably the best horse maybe in Japanese history was competitive
• 41:17
  last year in both the Derby and the and the and the Classic.
• 41:22
  But one horse that I think is not really getting talked about
• 41:25
  where I think you could potentially get some good odds.
• 41:29
  It is mine friend. Yeah, he's he's going off at six
• 41:33
  to one. His speed figures are honestly
• 41:36
  better than the rest of the field.
• 41:38
  He's finished first or second in every race that his jockey has
• 41:41
  finished aboard him. They had that incident in the
• 41:44
  last race where luckily he wasn't injured, but he didn't
• 41:49
  finish the race as Irad fell off.
• 41:51
  But I, I think he's 6:00 to 1:00 in the morning line.
• 41:53
  I think those lot, that line will actually go up even a
• 41:56
  little more. It could potentially go up to 8
• 41:59
  to 1. I I think there's value with
• 42:00
  mind frame and I just, I have a hard time going against, you
• 42:06
  know, Irad, who I think is the best jockey in all of horse
• 42:10
  racing and Todd Pletcher is one of the best trainers in in all
• 42:13
  horse racing. So if I can get mine frame 8 to
• 42:16
  one, I'm definitely going to pounce on that.
• 42:17
  Yeah, yeah. But just two straight days of
• 42:22
  just all these horses that you've seen race before and all
• 42:28
  these fields are just so stacked and they are impossible to bet.
• 42:36
  Yeah, yeah, Friday we got the juvenile, so you'll see some of
• 42:40
  those two year olds in there that you know, you'll see some
• 42:42
  of these Derby horses for next year running on Friday and some
• 42:46
  of the Oaks horses running on Friday and then Saturday,
• 42:48
  $7,000,000 purse in that classic race.
• 42:52
  So a lot of money on the line. But it's sad to see sovereignty
• 42:56
  not running. I, I hope we see sovereignty run
• 42:59
  again. I think the chances of that are
• 43:01
  probably pretty slim as sovereignty to run as a four
• 43:05
  year old. I think.
• 43:06
  He's about. You can.
• 43:07
  Retire him and you just put put him out the stud there, you
• 43:11
  know, makes it's time to make some real money.
• 43:14
  He about to have some fun. Yeah, but no excited about the
• 43:19
  Breeders Cup. I mean, when you got college
• 43:22
  football on NFL already and you just throw a race every 25
• 43:26
  minutes to throw some money on it, it makes for a good weekend.
• 43:30
  Yeah, can't wait. You know, one thing we didn't
• 43:33
  talk about Sunday because there was so much football and so much
• 43:38
  rage because the Bengals are just can't stop me and you.
• 43:44
  We didn't really get into the NB as betting scandal with with
• 43:48
  with Chauncey Billups and and Terry Rozier, just with all the
• 43:54
  gambling that's happening now, like all this stuff is is bound
• 43:57
  to happen because there's so much money involved in it.
• 44:00
  But Chauncey Billis has made over $106 million in his career
• 44:04
  as a player and made more than that now as a coach.
• 44:06
  Terry Rozier made more than $160 million as a player.
• 44:10
  Like why do these guys need even more money?
• 44:13
  Yeah, I mean, it's just being greedy, I guess.
• 44:15
  But like it's just what are you doing?
• 44:17
  Like it's you're just, it's just stupid.
• 44:20
  Like they monitor, there's so much monitoring that goes on on
• 44:23
  these betting sites. Like it's easy to flag something
• 44:27
  that's irregular. So when Terry Rozier in a random
• 44:31
  regular season game and hundreds of thousands of dollars out of
• 44:36
  nowhere just come in on his unders, it's a red flag.
• 44:39
  It's a red flag. And when you take yourself out
• 44:41
  of the game early for when you when you weren't listed as being
• 44:46
  hurt at all, like going into, you're not on the injury report
• 44:49
  and all of a sudden you've got something that comes up.
• 44:51
  So you've got all this money coming in on your unders out of
• 44:54
  nowhere on a random game, and you take yourself out early.
• 44:58
  You're going to get investigated, my guy.
• 44:59
  Like it's just what are you? What are you doing?
• 45:02
  I don't know. And you're also flying your
• 45:04
  buddy out to the game. Counting money in your own
• 45:06
  house? Yeah, counting money in the
• 45:07
  house. Yeah, counting, yeah, it's just.
• 45:10
  And it's he gets traded to the Heat and they don't even
• 45:13
  disclose the fact that he's under investigation.
• 45:17
  The whole thing is, is, is just a mess.
• 45:20
  And I mean, to me, it just I just.
• 45:22
  And he had a bunch of money that he owed.
• 45:25
  He had a bunch of taxes that he had owed, and I don't know where
• 45:29
  all that came from, but I'm sure that played a role in the reason
• 45:32
  why he was trying to generate more money.
• 45:34
  But there's other ways to do that, especially when you got
• 45:36
  the platform that he does. And I don't know, like the whole
• 45:41
  thing is just a mess. And then look at Chauncey
• 45:44
  Billups. I mean, it's a Hall of Fame
• 45:47
  basketball player. Oh, I mean, he hasn't had a ton
• 45:52
  of success for Portland, but from all the articles I've read,
• 45:55
  like so well respected by his players, by the front office
• 46:00
  staff, by the beat reporters, like everybody just thought he
• 46:05
  was just such a stand up guy. And you get reports of these
• 46:10
  poker games to where I mean, they're they've got manipulating
• 46:15
  shuffling machines and X-ray tables.
• 46:18
  Ray tabled the glasses like yes, glasses and.
• 46:22
  And like, he's the guy that's kind of leading the way to get
• 46:25
  people to play these games because he's Chauncey Billups.
• 46:27
  Like the celebrity factor draws people in, Yeah.
• 46:30
  In, in 2019, there's reports that he's winning all these the
• 46:35
  poker games and they're like, dude, like chill out a little
• 46:39
  bit. You got to lose sometimes to
• 46:40
  make it not look like we're cheating.
• 46:43
  And what were six years later, after those texts were
• 46:47
  originally sent and yeah, he finally, I, I guess he got
• 46:52
  arrested. But what?
• 46:54
  What are we doing? Yeah, I mean, he's, he's got,
• 46:57
  he's caught up in the poker, the poker thing.
• 47:00
  And I guess there was also the report when the Blazers, he, he
• 47:04
  mentioned in a text or a conversation that the Blazers
• 47:06
  were basically tanking. They set out their top 4 scores
• 47:10
  in one of those games and you know, everybody bet, bet against
• 47:14
  the spread for them to lose and they got house by 30.
• 47:16
  So you know, he's under investigation for for the
• 47:19
  gambling for the poker, but he's also, you know, he's also giving
• 47:22
  some insider information from from NBA side as well.
• 47:25
  So he's he's kind of double dipped into this whole fiasco.
• 47:29
  And both these guys are going to jail.
• 47:31
  Yeah. I mean, they got to make a
• 47:34
  statement of this or it's going to continue to happen.
• 47:37
  And I know we we talk about all these rich and famous people can
• 47:40
  figure out ways to get out of stuff.
• 47:41
  And they probably won't spend a lot of time in jail and they'll
• 47:44
  probably be at some nice facility, but they will spend
• 47:47
  time in jail because you've got to rein this in.
• 47:50
  Yeah, I mean, they're wrapped up.
• 47:52
  You got you got the Gambino crime families and the Genovese
• 47:55
  client crime families and you got these mob bosses or these
• 47:59
  mobsters that are involved in all this.
• 48:01
  Like why are you wrapping yourself up in with like with
• 48:04
  all like Woody, Woody, you have a nice life already.
• 48:07
  Like you don't need to do this. Well, I mean, I think you said
• 48:10
  at the beginning it's you that you mentioned, both the words
• 48:14
  greed and stupidity. I mean, those are the only way
• 48:18
  to explain getting involved with something like this.
• 48:21
  And 30 people across 11 states were arrested, including Brazier
• 48:25
  and Phillips. But like, I don't know how you
• 48:30
  be that greedy. I don't know how you be that
• 48:32
  stupid. No.
• 48:34
  But like they, like you said, they will do prison time.
• 48:37
  They will be there. They're going to set an example
• 48:38
  like they're going to make an example out of these.
• 48:40
  These two try to put an end to it before it gets worse.
• 48:45
  Yeah. So I don't know, I don't have
• 48:48
  many more thoughts on that except just great stupidity.
• 48:53
  Like be an idiot, be happy with the multiple hundreds of
• 48:58
  $1,000,000 you have and just go coach your team or and just go
• 49:03
  play basketball. I mean, if you want to make a
• 49:05
  lot of money, Chauncey Billups, just go be a college football
• 49:09
  coach and suck. Well, we just got to cut tanking
• 49:14
  and got fired by the Blazers and I don't.
• 49:16
  Know if the buyout is I don't think the buyout's as big in
• 49:18
  Portland, not as big as it is in college football.
• 49:21
  Just go be a college football coach and suck.
• 49:23
  Sit on your couch and rack up $50 million.
• 49:26
  Is that what Dion's doing right now?
• 49:27
  What? Is that what Dion's doing right
• 49:29
  now? He might be.
• 49:32
  I mean, after that performance last week against Utah.
• 49:34
  Now that his kids are gone, he might be, yeah.
• 49:37
  So, but you ain't review like we said this multiple times, like
• 49:41
  the best job is to fire college football coach and you can make
• 49:47
  $800,000 a month. Like, there's no amount of times
• 49:52
  that I can say that number to where it'll be like, yeah, that
• 49:55
  makes sense. To not even leave your house.
• 49:59
  And like I said, you finally get to act like yourself.
• 50:01
  You don't. You don't have to speak in that
• 50:02
  fake accent anymore. Yeah.
• 50:07
  We got a couple more stories before we wrap or we'll talk a
• 50:10
  little bit about Halloween to end, but the Dolphins owner
• 50:16
  Stephen Ross will see him being a little upset after their win
• 50:22
  on Sunday. He got caught, he got caught, he
• 50:25
  went viral. He's on his private jet.
• 50:28
  I mean, what? What do we say he's worth?
• 50:30
  He is worth 17 billion. Billion with AB.
• 50:36
  OK, yeah. Video of him leaving lands in
• 50:40
  the private jet. Stairs come down, you know,
• 50:43
  walks off the stairs. He looks around.
• 50:47
  His vehicle is not there. There's no car.
• 50:51
  And all of a sudden, he gets angry.
• 50:53
  He gets furious. He's yelling at whoever's
• 50:56
  standing there. I guess it's his assistant or
• 50:58
  somebody. Where's my car?
• 51:00
  You know? You know where his car was.
• 51:03
  Where was his car? He walked about five more steps
• 51:05
  and got in the car. Not more steps.
• 51:07
  Five steps. If you had breadsticks, you.
• 51:09
  Think they would have been throwing them with people.
• 51:11
  Do what? If he would have breadsticks,
• 51:12
  would he have been throwing them?
• 51:13
  Then probably would have chucked a couple Olive Garden
• 51:15
  breadsticks yeah, there's no doubt about that.
• 51:17
  But he the man was angry that he had to walk 5 steps to get into
• 51:21
  the car instead of just coming to the bottom of the stairs and
• 51:24
  just getting in and just berated whoever that.
• 51:26
  Person was He's 85 years old. He's an old man.
• 51:29
  He's, he's not a he's not a young pup.
• 51:31
  No. But I mean, I guess you get a
• 51:37
  little spoiled when you're 17, Billy.
• 51:40
  You look like a lunatic but your team sucks so you should know
• 51:43
  what they should probably have parked his car in the pay lot at
• 51:46
  the airport and made him take an Uber or something.
• 51:48
  Because his team is garbage. The coaching staff there is
• 51:52
  garbage, the players are garbage.
• 51:53
  His team and his organization are a fiasco.
• 51:55
  Probably second to the Bengals. Maybe he needs a little
• 51:59
  humbling. Well, your boy Frank.
• 52:03
  Got him an A hole. Frank Fleming of Frank the Tank,
• 52:07
  who is a Dolphins fan, had had a little something to say for his
• 52:12
  team owner on Twitter as he called him what?
• 52:14
  Called him, he got give give him the A hole treatment.
• 52:19
  Asshole treatment. Yeah.
• 52:21
  Yeah. And the dude, Frank's been
• 52:23
  walking every day for, what, the last three years?
• 52:25
  And he's lost a lot of weight. So they said that the owner they
• 52:28
  should he should join Frank the tank on a Frank walks.
• 52:31
  Maybe Frank will give him a give him a lesson not only in how to
• 52:35
  walk, but also how to how to run a franchise.
• 52:38
  Yeah, and then you've got some squirrels in Texas who aren't
• 52:44
  trying to. Lose weight like squirrels, the
• 52:46
  animal or squirrels. Squirrels the animals OK
• 52:49
  squirrels are the. I'm the squirrels, but the.
• 52:51
  Squirrels, later squirrels. The animal that are doing quite
• 52:56
  the opposite. Oh no, they're trying.
• 52:58
  They're trying to gain that weight.
• 53:00
  They're trying to put on that muscle mass.
• 53:01
  They're trying big. Fat squirrels.
• 53:04
  Fat squirrels, and there's a bunch of them that participated
• 53:11
  in the first annual Fat Squirrel Week competition that was
• 53:19
  presented by Dinosaur Valley State Park and the Texas Parks
• 53:24
  and Wildlife Department. So we have a fat squirrel
• 53:28
  competition, it said. How many squirrels participated
• 53:31
  do we know? Don't know how many squirrels
• 53:33
  participated, don't know what the competition entailed.
• 53:35
  I don't know if they would run 100 meter Sprint and then see
• 53:39
  who couldn't go The Who ran the least.
• 53:42
  I don't know. I.
• 53:44
  Guess they weighed the squirrels to see who's the fat.
• 53:46
  But a fast squirrel competition sounds awesome.
• 53:48
  So we get a bag of planners the fastest.
• 53:51
  I don't. I don't know what the
• 53:52
  competition entailed. Did we have a winner?
• 53:55
  See who could climb the tree and not get high.
• 53:59
  Maybe these are maybe all who cannot jump from one limb to the
• 54:03
  other. Yeah.
• 54:04
  All possible. Thanks for the competition.
• 54:07
  But we did have a winner, all right, and the winner beat out
• 54:14
  Chunk Norris. Chunk Norris came in second
• 54:16
  place. Chunk Chunk, not chunk.
• 54:18
  Chunk Norris. What a name which the?
• 54:20
  The the creativity of these names is a little lacking
• 54:24
  because the winner also went by started his name with Chunk and
• 54:31
  that is Chunkasaurus Rex. Chunkasaurus.
• 54:35
  Has been crown champion of the Texas Parks and Wildlife
• 54:38
  Department's inaugural Fat Squirrel Week competition.
• 54:42
  So Congrats to Chunk Asaurus Rex.
• 54:45
  I'm so proud of that little squirrel.
• 54:46
  Good for him. What's he get?
• 54:48
  You get like a bag of acorns to take back to the tree.
• 54:50
  Warm like. AI think it's a lifetime supply,
• 54:52
  lifetime supply, acorns, lifetime supply.
• 54:56
  I think he gets to move into the house.
• 54:59
  He gets him a little little mattress just full of acorns and
• 55:05
  never has to jump on the tree again.
• 55:08
  Just makes make sure he just stays away from the Ozempic
• 55:13
  shot. Yeah, yeah.
• 55:16
  If you wouldn't have a name, go back or back.
• 55:18
  You can't have a name like Chuck Asaurus Rex and beyond an
• 55:20
  Olympic shot, no. But could we not have been a
• 55:23
  little more creative with our names here, both starting with
• 55:27
  Chunk. We have to see what the other
• 55:30
  names were, but I think they're both pretty I.
• 55:32
  Didn't see any other names but I put a lot of thought into this I
• 55:36
  was trying to come up. Do you admit Chuck Norris is
• 55:39
  pretty good? It is, but he didn't even win
• 55:41
  today anything. So I mean, I was trying to come
• 55:46
  up with like a superstar's name for a fat squirrel athlete.
• 55:52
  And I mean, there's some great ones on the superstars, right?
• 55:56
  Oh, yeah. Harry Canary, Kendra Raffi
• 56:00
  Junior. Yeah, yeah.
• 56:02
  But you have more flexibility because there's a lot of animals
• 56:05
  in the world. Yeah, with just the fat
• 56:07
  squirrel, you're limited in your your options.
• 56:14
  So I've typed it in attack Jack GPT, and they were all just
• 56:17
  terrible. And I told ChatGPT straight up,
• 56:20
  you need to stay out of the the comedy.
• 56:23
  Yeah, because, yeah, well, I need to hire another full time
• 56:27
  comedy writer. But the one that I came up with,
• 56:31
  it's so bad. And this is, this is me, the
• 56:36
  Round Mound of Acorn. No.
• 56:40
  Is that better? Is that better than Chuck
• 56:41
  Norris? Or it's Chuck Thor's Rex.
• 56:44
  No, it's terrible. It's absolutely terrible.
• 56:47
  Like no, no. It's better than those two.
• 56:52
  It's not just going chunk into the front of a name, like at
• 56:55
  least it's got some creativity. You could have just said Chunk
• 56:58
  Barkley and been better than. But I'm not going back with
• 57:01
  chunk after everybody's chunk. When you good.
• 57:05
  I mean, how creative would it be if I just cussed out Chuck
• 57:08
  Norris and Chunk of Source Rex? I'm like, I came up with a
• 57:10
  really good name, Chunk Barkley. Yours is terrible.
• 57:16
  Round Mound of Acorn. No.
• 57:21
  It's tight. No, it's not.
• 57:23
  It's absolutely. It might be one of the worst
• 57:25
  things I've ever heard, to be honest with you.
• 57:27
  So my GPT to stay out of the comedy.
• 57:30
  Oh, they were so bad. This was 10 times better.
• 57:33
  It's not that's they. Hold on, it's.
• 57:35
  Awful. Let me see if I can pull these
• 57:38
  up. What they tried to come up with
• 57:40
  like I was laughing at ChatGPT like just for how awful it was.
• 57:44
  Where? How do I find it?
• 57:45
  I don't remember what they said but it was terrible.
• 57:48
  Oh, here it is, Chunk Jordan. So First off, right away all
• 57:54
  they did was go chunk LeBron chunks.
• 57:59
  Oh gosh. Tom Brady belly that doesn't
• 58:02
  even make sense. Sarita Serena Chubbins and I'm
• 58:09
  not only going to give you one more because these are just
• 58:12
  awful. This actually might be the best
• 58:14
  one of the of theirs. Shaquille O Nut, but you're
• 58:20
  telling me Round Mount of Acorn isn't better than those?
• 58:22
  No, it's pretty bad. So you're going to kill a nut as
• 58:25
  the best one because it ain't the other ones.
• 58:28
  They all suck man. I was thinking like maybe like
• 58:31
  is there any famous like Shirley athletes?
• 58:34
  Well, I thought about this like there's Earl Boykins, so it
• 58:39
  could be Squirrel Boykins. But yeah, Squirrel Boykins isn't
• 58:42
  fat, so how does that make sense?
• 58:44
  He's 5 foot 5 skinny NBA player. Well, there's got to be like a.
• 58:48
  But I was trying to think of Earls that you could.
• 58:50
  Earls. You're going to live research
• 58:54
  fat Earls. Yeah, let's see Squirrel
• 58:59
  Campbell. I mean, he wasn't fat.
• 59:06
  No, he wasn't. But my goal next year is the
• 59:09
  Round Mound of Acorn to win the second annual Texas Parks and
• 59:17
  Wildlife Departments Fat Squirrel.
• 59:19
  CC Sabathia's actual first name is Earl.
• 59:24
  But nobody knows that you're just going to say squirrel
• 59:27
  Sabathia. It doesn't make any sense.
• 59:29
  It's better than acorn, round, egg, corn, or whatever the
• 59:32
  nonsense you're throwing out there.
• 59:34
  Well, when? When Round Mound Acorn wins.
• 59:38
  Are you going to start? Competition next.
• 59:39
  Year. Here's what I want you to do.
• 59:40
  Then I want you to go outside tomorrow in the in the daylight,
• 59:44
  find you a squirrel that's just sitting by a tree, capture him.
• 59:48
  And then you're just going to train.
• 59:49
  You're just going to start feeding this little guy for full
• 59:52
  year and you're going to take him to Texas and let's see if he
• 59:54
  can win. That's the goal, That's the
• 59:58
  goal. That's might be my primary
• 1:00:01
  objective for 2026. It's the Round Mound of Acorn
• 1:00:05
  wins the 2026 Texas Fat Squirrel Competition.
• 1:00:09
  Yes. Oh boy.
• 1:00:12
  Think we can do it? No, no, I want to see you try,
• 1:00:15
  though. I do want to see you try all.
• 1:00:17
  Right. So that's my guy, that's my,
• 1:00:21
  that's my, that's my little homie.
• 1:00:22
  Round Mound of Acorn. Good luck.
• 1:00:27
  Before we get into Halloween, you want to talk about these
• 1:00:29
  Chinese bathrooms? Just tell me what's going on
• 1:00:32
  here because you sent it to me. I don't know.
• 1:00:34
  I just read an article today. Apparently China, you go to
• 1:00:38
  this. Is real.
• 1:00:38
  This is. We're not being duped on this.
• 1:00:40
  No, it seems to be real. You promise we're not being
• 1:00:42
  duped because that's happened before.
• 1:00:44
  I can't promise, but it seems to be real in China in the public
• 1:00:50
  restrooms. I don't know if it's every
• 1:00:51
  public restroom. If you need toilet paper, you
• 1:00:54
  have to scan AQR code with your phone and watch an advertisement
• 1:00:59
  of some sort, and then you get your free sheet of toilet paper.
• 1:01:03
  One sheet. One sheet, it did say a a small
• 1:01:07
  sheet. So yes, I think it's one sheet.
• 1:01:09
  So if you need more, you watch another ad.
• 1:01:11
  If you need another one after that you watch another ad and if
• 1:01:13
  you need another one after that, then you're in some trouble.
• 1:01:17
  But. You got to watch.
• 1:01:19
  You got to watch a movie and wipe your ass.
• 1:01:22
  But if you don't want to watch an ad, you just refuse to watch
• 1:01:26
  the ad. You can pay the US equivalent of
• 1:01:29
  $0.07 to skip the ad and get your sheet of toilet paper.
• 1:01:34
  I mean, we all know that toilet paper is not cheap, but we all
• 1:01:38
  buy it for our houses. Yeah, like it's not cheap.
• 1:01:41
  And you don't want the cheap toilet paper either.
• 1:01:43
  No, it's one thing that you absolutely cannot skimp on.
• 1:01:48
  No. You you might make that mistake
• 1:01:52
  one time and that's not a mistake you ever make again
• 1:01:55
  because you can't wait to get rid of that package of TV and go
• 1:01:58
  back to the OG Charmin. So what happened?
• 1:02:01
  So like, let's say Nick Evans takes a little vacation, takes a
• 1:02:03
  little trip. He's over in Beijing, China,
• 1:02:06
  checking out the sites, you know, check out the culture you
• 1:02:09
  stop in, you get a little Chinese food, right?
• 1:02:10
  You get a little Chinese food, get some, get some some fried
• 1:02:13
  rice, maybe get some some orange chicken, maybe some some lo
• 1:02:16
  Mein. I think that's American Chinese
• 1:02:18
  food. Probably not going to get that
• 1:02:20
  actually in China, but OK. I would because I think it's
• 1:02:23
  delicious, but whatever. But you don't know.
• 1:02:24
  Whatever you've been to China, you've probably never been to
• 1:02:27
  China, so you don't know, probably.
• 1:02:28
  Guess you are correct. We were supposed to go, but we
• 1:02:30
  did not go. All right, so you're, you're in
• 1:02:32
  China. You get yourself a nice little
• 1:02:33
  Chinese meal and all of a sudden you get a little full and the
• 1:02:36
  tummy starts rumbling. Uh oh, you got to go to the
• 1:02:40
  bathroom. When you are in the bathroom,
• 1:02:42
  are you scanning the QR code and watching the ads or are you
• 1:02:46
  paying the seven cents and just saying get me the the the heck
• 1:02:49
  out of here. Well.
• 1:02:51
  First off, I don't play Rd. games when it comes to that.
• 1:02:56
  And when you're on vacation, I guess your new home base is your
• 1:03:02
  hotel. Yeah, So I would be taking care
• 1:03:05
  of that at the hotel. It would have to be an absolute
• 1:03:08
  and utter emergency for me to have to use the the restaurant
• 1:03:13
  bathroom and at that point I might not have time to, I mean.
• 1:03:16
  I think that's for everybody. Don't have everybody just
• 1:03:18
  chooses to use the restaurant bathroom.
• 1:03:20
  Like nobody just was like. Oh, people are.
• 1:03:23
  People are way more relaxed with it than than I would ever be.
• 1:03:27
  I'm, I'm, I'm more on your side of these these kind of things,
• 1:03:30
  but I, I. Oh, there's there's people that
• 1:03:32
  are just like, I got to go. I'm not like, no, I'm I'll, I'll
• 1:03:36
  leave the restaurant like I'll just all right, I'm not hungry.
• 1:03:39
  I'm. I will say we do have we do have
• 1:03:41
  one friend that is not afraid to use the like.
• 1:03:44
  It's the same me dude. Like I, I cannot.
• 1:03:48
  I can name one of our friends that.
• 1:03:49
  I'm not going to name names that.
• 1:03:51
  We don't need to do that. You can definitely use the the
• 1:03:54
  the the restaurant bathroom. Yeah, I, I do not go on the
• 1:03:58
  road. I, I'm strictly, strictly play
• 1:04:01
  home games. That's it.
• 1:04:03
  All home games. And then like I said, if you're
• 1:04:05
  on vacation where going home is not the option, the hotel or
• 1:04:09
  wherever you're staying is, is now your new home and and that's
• 1:04:13
  where you take care of your business.
• 1:04:14
  But what are your thoughts on what the Chinese are doing here
• 1:04:17
  this fair? No, absolutely not.
• 1:04:20
  No, in no world should this be a thing.
• 1:04:24
  Like people are paying to eat there.
• 1:04:26
  Like if you want to have a public restroom or say that
• 1:04:30
  people don't pay to eat there and they want to use it, then
• 1:04:33
  maybe make them watch a commercial.
• 1:04:35
  But these are paying customers. Like, what are we doing?
• 1:04:38
  And I I bet that the companies don't even get the money.
• 1:04:40
  It probably goes to the government.
• 1:04:42
  They got to pay the tariffs, Nick.
• 1:04:43
  They got to pay the tariffs. This is not the show for all
• 1:04:47
  that. I guarantee you we don't need to
• 1:04:50
  go in all that. But no, no, it's.
• 1:04:53
  It sounds awful. And I just can't imagine a world
• 1:04:58
  where it's an emergency. And they're like, yeah, but
• 1:05:01
  first you got to watch the Buffalo Wild Wings.
• 1:05:04
  Buffalo just be so happy that he's eaten wings for 30 seconds.
• 1:05:09
  I think I would just pay the seven cents and skip the ads.
• 1:05:12
  I mean, but does that for one sheet?
• 1:05:15
  That's I, I We got to find out. I mean to be honest, like if
• 1:05:19
  it's emergency I'm plopping down 2 bucks.
• 1:05:20
  And I mean, obviously it's, I mean, if they're not just giving
• 1:05:23
  you unlimited toilet paper for seven cents, like it's got to be
• 1:05:26
  for one sheet. So you got to either make the
• 1:05:29
  most of that sheet or you're watching another ad or paying
• 1:05:31
  another $0.07. Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:05:35
  But if I'm in that situation, I am not in a good mind space to
• 1:05:38
  begin with because that is not where I want to be.
• 1:05:42
  And then when I see the Buffalo Wild Wings ad come on before I
• 1:05:46
  can take care of finish my business, I'm not going to be a
• 1:05:49
  happy care. I can just tell you that.
• 1:05:51
  Man, oh man. Let's not, let's not initiate
• 1:05:56
  that in the States, please, for when the emergencies do happen.
• 1:06:00
  I mean, or you could just be like a Nick Evans and just get
• 1:06:03
  up a day. Dude, underrated, underrated and
• 1:06:10
  they're not expensive. Like everybody should have a
• 1:06:13
  bidet. I mean, I don't think we need to
• 1:06:17
  get in the details on it, but. Everybody just.
• 1:06:19
  Have the day, hey? Two days till Halloween.
• 1:06:24
  Yeah. What?
• 1:06:25
  What are the kiddos dressing up as?
• 1:06:28
  Got one? Let's go on as a black cat, and
• 1:06:32
  the other one will be the witch. So we have a witch in her black
• 1:06:35
  cat. OK.
• 1:06:37
  You the witch. I was going to try to guess who
• 1:06:41
  is who. But sorry, that game's over.
• 1:06:43
  Yeah, that game's over. Do you remember as a kid, like
• 1:06:48
  some Halloween costumes or you're like, that was that was
• 1:06:51
  tight. That was really cool.
• 1:06:54
  I had I had some good ones. I had some good ones.
• 1:06:57
  One one of my favorites, I would dressed up as the yellow peanut
• 1:07:00
  Eminem because I love peanut M&M's and I was like, well, this
• 1:07:03
  is funny. So when is a yellow peanut M&M
• 1:07:06
  painted my face, painted my face yellow, had the whole costume on
• 1:07:09
  the gloves, the big feet. So yeah, I was peanut M&M was I
• 1:07:12
  was a firefighter one year I dressed up as Chris Redmond, the
• 1:07:16
  Louisville quarterback one year put a bandage under my chin like
• 1:07:19
  he just gotten drilled on a on a sack.
• 1:07:22
  But that was. Always a Halloween guy.
• 1:07:24
  Like did you look forward to it? Yeah, yeah, I mean, this kid,
• 1:07:28
  dude, are there kids that don't look forward to Halloween?
• 1:07:30
  Well, I mean, I'm, I'm kind of under impressed by your your
• 1:07:35
  costumes, the creativity a little bit.
• 1:07:36
  I mean, I I was dressed up every year.
• 1:07:38
  I. Just Iron Man.
• 1:07:39
  I got a well, I was like 4 when I was a fireman.
• 1:07:42
  Like I like I was four years old.
• 1:07:45
  I got to remember. I'm trying to think what else I
• 1:07:47
  was. Like to me, like I look back as
• 1:07:50
  a kid and there's absolutely costumes that stand out to me as
• 1:07:54
  being the best. I was, I was the Joker as one of
• 1:07:59
  my buddies was Batman when Jack Nicholson was Joker.
• 1:08:03
  Yeah, that's I'm old, but I was a really good Joker and he
• 1:08:07
  Batman's not hard, but I was a I've been Joker twice, but the,
• 1:08:12
  the Heath Ledger Joker was one of when I was an adult, so that
• 1:08:15
  didn't count. I was a mad scientist where I
• 1:08:18
  had like crazy hair and cool, cool glasses and like blood all
• 1:08:21
  over myself and like a like a lab coat that was cool.
• 1:08:25
  And then like one of the last ones, I was Wacko from
• 1:08:28
  Animaniacs. Did you do you know Animaniacs?
• 1:08:34
  So I was like Wacko. We had the hat backwards.
• 1:08:36
  He was the coolest of the three. So I dressed up as Wacko for for
• 1:08:39
  Halloween. So I remember I was a Power
• 1:08:41
  Ranger one year. I do remember being a Power
• 1:08:43
  Ranger pink one. You know, the pink one.
• 1:08:45
  No, I was a shoot. I mean, she was hot back then.
• 1:08:48
  But no, I was the blue one. I was the blue Power Ranger.
• 1:08:53
  I don't. I don't know much about Power
• 1:08:55
  Rangers. I mean what we're not.
• 1:08:59
  Past your time. Yeah, I mean, I remember we're
• 1:09:03
  six years apart. I think you're older than that.
• 1:09:09
  You're 87, right? Yeah.
• 1:09:11
  Yeah, we're. But you're born, Lady, no?
• 1:09:13
  Yeah, I was born at like this Christmas Eve of 80, which is
• 1:09:18
  basically 81. Still counts.
• 1:09:20
  It still counts, but yeah. Six years, Yeah.
• 1:09:23
  Power Rangers. I remember seeing it on but no,
• 1:09:25
  I was not a power. Rangers.
• 1:09:26
  Oh, you missed out Power Rangers great back in the day.
• 1:09:30
  So, favorite candy to get as a kid?
• 1:09:37
  I was always more of the fruit kind of candy, like the sour
• 1:09:42
  stuff. I used to love warheads back in
• 1:09:43
  the day, but give me the Skittles.
• 1:09:45
  I was always a big Skittles kid. Love Skittles, but if we're
• 1:09:49
  going on the chocolate side of things, 100 Grand was probably
• 1:09:53
  my favorite. That's an underrated, That's an
• 1:09:55
  underrated candy bar. I love 100.
• 1:09:57
  I wouldn't go top of the order, but it's an underrated candy
• 1:10:00
  bar. I am more of a fruit candy guy
• 1:10:05
  also as well. I don't know what that says for
• 1:10:07
  both of us, but Skittles would be at the top of my list.
• 1:10:12
  Starburst. Sour Patch Kids.
• 1:10:14
  Yeah, yeah, Sour Patch Kids for sure.
• 1:10:16
  All of those. And then on the chocolate side,
• 1:10:20
  Twix man. Oh, Twix.
• 1:10:22
  Very good, very good quality candy.
• 1:10:24
  The the caramel and the cookie crunch.
• 1:10:25
  Yeah, yeah, 100 grand and Milky Way would would be a close
• 1:10:28
  second for me. I was a Milky love Milky.
• 1:10:30
  Way what what are you getting in your your tricky treat bag that
• 1:10:33
  you're like mom that like you can have this?
• 1:10:35
  Oh, like like, like when when you got like when somebody
• 1:10:39
  dumped this in or put this in your candy candy bucket and you
• 1:10:42
  saw as you were walking away, you just wanted to turn around
• 1:10:45
  and just kind of throw it back at them.
• 1:10:47
  Anything with coconut. Anything Almond Joys.
• 1:10:50
  Did you get? That a lot.
• 1:10:51
  What? Did you get coconut candy a lot?
• 1:10:53
  No, not a lot, but like it was in there.
• 1:10:56
  It was in there. That means it looked like that.
• 1:10:57
  Those people just hated kids anyway.
• 1:11:00
  So Almond Joys like that stuff. Mounds, get that crap out of
• 1:11:03
  here. Coconut, anything coconut like
• 1:11:06
  it makes you want to go back and just kind of teepee, teepee
• 1:11:08
  their house. And you probably did the the
• 1:11:13
  little orange and black candies, whatever.
• 1:11:15
  What? I don't even know what.
• 1:11:16
  They are like the liquorice stuff.
• 1:11:18
  They're just like, get out of here, like dots.
• 1:11:20
  That's just you're not even trying as a trick or treat
• 1:11:23
  house. Dots were always kind of
• 1:11:25
  disappointing. Dots are, yeah, dots.
• 1:11:27
  I mean, and we both talked about house.
• 1:11:29
  We love fruit candy but I mean dots will just pull your whole
• 1:11:33
  tooth out and they don't taste as good as.
• 1:11:35
  The other fruit candies, that's true.
• 1:11:38
  I mean, candy corn, a lot of people are listening to that is
• 1:11:40
  their favorite Halloween candy. I do like candy corn.
• 1:11:43
  I'll eat candy corn if you've got it with like some some
• 1:11:46
  salted peanuts and some M&M's where it's all together.
• 1:11:49
  But I'm not just going to sit there and eat straight.
• 1:11:52
  One of my favorite Halloween candies.
• 1:11:54
  Like like not trick or treat candy, but Halloween candies.
• 1:11:57
  Are those mellow cream pumpkins? Give me the mellow cream
• 1:12:00
  pumpkins. I love those.
• 1:12:01
  Is that like a Little Debbie? No, they're like the candy corn.
• 1:12:04
  Like mellow cream? Like candy.
• 1:12:06
  Corn. Oh, I got you.
• 1:12:07
  The pumpkin I got you. They got the little face on
• 1:12:09
  them. No, no face.
• 1:12:10
  There's no face on them. They.
• 1:12:11
  Got a little green stem on them. OK, I know what you're talking
• 1:12:14
  about. Mellow cream pumpkins.
• 1:12:15
  They're just big candy corns. Yeah.
• 1:12:17
  Yeah, they're just bigger candy corns.
• 1:12:19
  Oh, I'll sit there. I'll just eat handfuls of like I
• 1:12:21
  love. Them I'm out.
• 1:12:22
  I'm out on that, no interest at all.
• 1:12:24
  My wife hates that. I call them mellow cream
• 1:12:26
  pumpkins. There's like they're called
• 1:12:28
  candy corn pumpkins. I'm like, no, candy corn is
• 1:12:30
  candy corn like you said so. What is mellow cream?
• 1:12:33
  What does that even mean? Is that what?
• 1:12:35
  It's made of like that's what a candy corn is made of.
• 1:12:37
  It's mellow cream. It's like marshmallow cream.
• 1:12:39
  Marshmallow cream. It's mellow cream.
• 1:12:40
  For the first time, and maybe our friendship it.
• 1:12:43
  Says it on the back. Educating me on something.
• 1:12:45
  She's like, nobody calls it that.
• 1:12:46
  I'm like, it's literally what it says on the back.
• 1:12:48
  Mellow Cream Pumpkins. So next time, next time you're
• 1:12:52
  at the Kroger, check out check out the the the Halloween candy
• 1:12:56
  to be on sale. Get you a bag of the Mellow
• 1:12:58
  Cream Pumpkins. I won't because I won't eat
• 1:13:00
  them, but I appreciate the, I appreciate the information and
• 1:13:04
  the education. Oh, so yeah, we should be
• 1:13:10
  dressed up today. I mean, you already look like
• 1:13:14
  you dressed up. What?
• 1:13:16
  Yeah, I did. I saved it.
• 1:13:18
  I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
• 1:13:20
  Looking fresh. You're you're already looking
• 1:13:21
  scary. Yeah, I don't want to look any
• 1:13:24
  scarier. Your face looks better today I
• 1:13:26
  guess I said in the last pod that your face look.
• 1:13:29
  What did I say? Fakes look rough.
• 1:13:30
  Well, to clarify, never we froze in the middle of the show.
• 1:13:36
  We did the final edits. They don't get that part.
• 1:13:39
  Like I, I go in and I clean that up.
• 1:13:41
  So it's not saying, hey, hey, where'd you go?
• 1:13:44
  Like, we can't hear that. But there are, they does still
• 1:13:48
  record. So sometimes I like to throw a
• 1:13:50
  little hidden gem there at the end of the of the episode.
• 1:13:54
  And yeah, you said your face looks terrible.
• 1:13:56
  So, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
• 1:13:58
  I can't disagree, so I threw it in there.
• 1:13:59
  You, you did. You froze mid face.
• 1:14:01
  It was kind of funny. I appreciate your edits.
• 1:14:06
  Yeah, I'll be doing that here tonight.
• 1:14:08
  So we got, we got a Jingle in the works.
• 1:14:15
  We got a Jingle in the works. You going to bust it out now or
• 1:14:17
  are you going to record? It I'm not going to bust out
• 1:14:19
  now. I want to get music to it but.
• 1:14:22
  Are you just, are you going to tell AI the lyrics and just have
• 1:14:24
  it come up, come up with it for you?
• 1:14:27
  No, actually I don't know. I, I've, I've got the lyrics.
• 1:14:31
  The lyrics are done. I woke up at 5:00 AM last night
• 1:14:34
  and just all of a sudden this just comes to my head.
• 1:14:37
  I don't know what's wrong, wrong with me, but and then that now
• 1:14:41
  I'm up for half an hour because I'm recording it on my phone
• 1:14:44
  because I don't want to lose it. But this is just the way my
• 1:14:47
  whole life has worked where I just get these jingles in my
• 1:14:50
  head and they all live in my phone.
• 1:14:52
  It might be something where we we start showing some of these
• 1:14:56
  jingles during during episodes and we can, we can, we can rate
• 1:15:01
  them on like a scale of 1 to 10 and kind of show people how big
• 1:15:04
  of a lunatic I really AM and how my brain works.
• 1:15:07
  Some are, some are appropriate, some are inappropriate.
• 1:15:10
  We'll probably leave the inappropriate ones alone, leave
• 1:15:13
  them at home or we'll see. We'll see.
• 1:15:17
  But yes, last night at 5:00, I wake up in the middle of night
• 1:15:21
  all of a sudden this I'm the I've been wanting to write a
• 1:15:25
  Jingle for us to start the show. And yeah, I think we, I think we
• 1:15:30
  got we got the lyrics. Now we just need a beat.
• 1:15:35
  Which we're getting can't wait for that finished product we.
• 1:15:38
  Get that? We get that we're we're pretty
• 1:15:40
  legitimate. We're on episode 16, dude.
• 1:15:43
  How about that? Have we beaten 16?
• 1:15:45
  Have we beaten the over under yet?
• 1:15:47
  What's the over under? I don't know, like on a number
• 1:15:50
  of episodes that people thought we would actually stick stick
• 1:15:52
  through it with. Well, I mean, I I told you this
• 1:15:55
  off air, the majority of podcasts last three or less
• 1:15:58
  episodes. Oh, so then, yeah.
• 1:16:01
  I mean, it's hard to get traction in this, in this
• 1:16:03
  business. It's a, it's a over saturated
• 1:16:06
  market. There's no doubt about it.
• 1:16:09
  But I told you'd give me two years.
• 1:16:13
  We're two months 3. Months.
• 1:16:15
  We're two months, but all right. Well, I hope you get a lot of
• 1:16:21
  Mellow Cream pumpkins on Friday. I'll take them.
• 1:16:26
  I will be with my nieces and nephews, so unfortunately I
• 1:16:29
  won't be seeing your kiddos dressed up.
• 1:16:32
  I mean, the kids, they got to pay the the candy tax.
• 1:16:34
  Like that's number one. They got to learn about the
• 1:16:36
  candy tax. And as a parent, it's your
• 1:16:38
  responsibility to taste the candy to make sure that it's
• 1:16:41
  safe. So they got under. 1000% and
• 1:16:43
  also if you're not trick or treating with the pillowcase
• 1:16:46
  then you don't know what you're doing.
• 1:16:47
  All right, we're not going that far.
• 1:16:49
  Our kids have bags with their names on it and stuff like.
• 1:16:52
  You can't get as much candy unless you have a pillowcase.
• 1:16:55
  That is true. We do have to come back to the
• 1:16:56
  house and dump it out and yes, yeah.
• 1:16:58
  You trick or treat with a pillowcase.
• 1:17:02
  It's like a old days, yeah, but great, great week in the sports.
• 1:17:06
  NFL, horse racing, college football and the first, what we
• 1:17:13
  hope is the annual Rowdy Cup at the White House.
• 1:17:17
  We almost didn't talk about this.
• 1:17:18
  I'll talk about it real quick, just real quick.
• 1:17:21
  Yeah, so first ever Rowdy Cup, Ryder Cup, however you want to
• 1:17:25
  call it, Rally Cup works really good actually.
• 1:17:28
  That's. What we're calling it.
• 1:17:30
  So two teams of four, we're playing Park Mammoth on Saturday
• 1:17:35
  morning and then Barren River Lake on Sunday, play in 18 both
• 1:17:42
  days and then we'll have 4-9 host sessions.
• 1:17:46
  So the first nine host session on Saturday will be scramble and
• 1:17:52
  then we'll play alternate shot and then we're going to play
• 1:17:54
  four man, four man or 4 ball, whatever it's called, 4 ball, 4
• 1:17:57
  ball and then we're going to close with singles.
• 1:17:59
  Yeah, me and you are on the same team.
• 1:18:01
  We're on the bad guys. The bad guys?
• 1:18:03
  Me. We're playing the good guys.
• 1:18:05
  Michael Vanover, Matt Thomas playing the good guys, the Joe
• 1:18:09
  Ziggler, Andrew Miller, Andrew Storm and well, get more.
• 1:18:14
  The good, The good news is that it's net.
• 1:18:17
  So it's based off handicap because if it was straight up,
• 1:18:20
  we would be, we would be, we would be toast.
• 1:18:22
  And we talked about this back, back during the actual Ryder Cup
• 1:18:26
  when you had all the thoughts and opinions on how to set up
• 1:18:29
  the matches and all that. You are a rowdy Cup captain so
• 1:18:32
  you got some decisions to make. We we do have.
• 1:18:34
  I'm hoping maybe we can. Your parents are due tomorrow
• 1:18:38
  night, you guys. Tomorrow, make some decisions.
• 1:18:41
  I mean, I hope that you wake up at 5:00 in the morning with your
• 1:18:44
  brain going smoking like it was last night and all these ideas
• 1:18:47
  that go in your head. But I need you to focus that
• 1:18:49
  instead of jingles. I need you to put that in on the
• 1:18:51
  rock, the rowdy cut. I want to win this thing.
• 1:18:53
  Position to win. I want to win this thing.
• 1:18:56
  So do I. And I like being, I like the
• 1:18:58
  fact that I think we're dogs. We're dogs in this thing.
• 1:19:02
  There's no doubt our backs are against the wall.
• 1:19:04
  Everybody thinks the good guys are going to win.
• 1:19:07
  Well, because Andrew Miller threw the whole thing off.
• 1:19:09
  Because he's so. Yeah, this is one play.
• 1:19:11
  If you've got 7 double digit handicaps and then you throw in
• 1:19:14
  a + 1, it does kind of screw everything up.
• 1:19:17
  I mean, the, the, the way I like the way he constructed the team.
• 1:19:20
  We have a good, strong camaraderie.
• 1:19:22
  Good, good. Yeah.
• 1:19:23
  Like, you know, like we, we all get along.
• 1:19:25
  We, we, we mesh well together. The other team, I could feel
• 1:19:28
  like there could be some issues on the other team.
• 1:19:30
  I do too. I do too.
• 1:19:32
  That was in my thought process. And also like, I mean, if you've
• 1:19:36
  got a high handicap, you can and you play better, you're going
• 1:19:38
  to, you know, it's going to be advantage if you're a 10.
• 1:19:42
  I mean, you got to play better than a guy who's a 17 or an 18.
• 1:19:45
  So it'll be fine. I'm looking forward to it.
• 1:19:48
  Hopefully the weather's a little better than it was on Monday
• 1:19:51
  when it was cold and rainy the whole day.
• 1:19:54
  But just you hit the ball pretty good on Monday.
• 1:19:58
  Let's just drive the ball well. Yeah, that's the goal, just.
• 1:20:02
  Drive the ball well, but we both need to get into the lab when it
• 1:20:06
  comes to putting. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:20:10
  Monday was not a A-Team effort of our putting on.
• 1:20:13
  Monday was was awful. I would, I would say piss poor,
• 1:20:18
  I think, yeah, yeah, I think there was some like it was that
• 1:20:21
  was pretty wide open. So we had chances to make putts
• 1:20:25
  and there was one time we're all four of us.
• 1:20:27
  I think we putted it at least six or seven times and still
• 1:20:29
  never made it. Yeah, is hell.
• 1:20:33
  Got to get better on the putt stroke, yeah.
• 1:20:34
  But we'll get it. We'll get it together.
• 1:20:36
  And we're hoping to maybe do the pod live from Barren River Lake
• 1:20:41
  on Sunday night. That would be an experience.
• 1:20:45
  Chances of that one happening? 10%. 10.
• 1:20:51
  We'll see. If not, we'll be back early next
• 1:20:53
  week. Yeah, well, if if we're not here
• 1:20:55
  on Sunday, we'll be back on Wednesday.
• 1:20:57
  But subscribe on all of your podcast platform, Spotify, Apple
• 1:21:03
  Music, YouTube, so you know when the new podcast is released.
• 1:21:07
  And we'll have whenever, whether it's Wednesday or Sunday, we'll
• 1:21:10
  have plenty to talk about and maybe we'll have a new Jingle to
• 1:21:14
  open the show. But.
• 1:21:16
  For Neil, I'm Nick. You've been listening to the
• 1:21:19
  high differential. We'll see you sometime next
• 1:21:21
  week. Give it to me.
• 1:21:30
  Let's go, let's go.
