  Speaker 2: probably there the next day or so.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, if well, not the next day because it's gotta
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: be Sunday because that's the only day there's too many
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: games were on in the morning. The next Wednesday, we
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: could do it. Okay, we could do it Wednesday, but
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: they're not coming in until Wednesday.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: So the Wednesday, right right right. I just figured.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Maybe maybe uh yeah find out tell Crack how long
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: you're going to be in town for. Yeah, yeah, we
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: can eat Sunday morning breakfast that we can do a
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: dinner on the on the Monday after, well the Tuesday after.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: And Alan's not going to watch the games in the casando.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: This is the second person that asked me that I
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: without asking them. I think that's the answer.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: No, Alan's not gonna, But I mean, if there's a
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: big demand for it, then I'll just make an appearance.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: But it's not yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, and watch
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: a game with anyway. But if you guys are all
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: leaving on Sunday that they're coming in the eighteenth, let
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: us know and then we'll do a Sunday morning uh
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Norman's breakfast. If you're staying later, then dinner makes more sense.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: It gives you more time because breakfast.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Because the games, the games are going Sunday, but there's
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: only one early game on Sunday.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure it's staggered.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: It was.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: I recall every year it's staggered.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: So there's one early game and then a couple and
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: then there's mostly late games.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, Alan, how is? I was in the sports book
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: this morning? I did I did my VS show this morning,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: and Sportsbook was packed. Lots of people. Probably a better week,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: though everyone was comfortable. They had seats around them still
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: where they didn't work, crowded.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Jammed in.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: I talked to many people today that told me this
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: is a much more enjoyable week during conference tournaments than
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: next week. There's more games, it's it's just an easier time,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: not as much as aggressive crowd. How about your betting
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: for this this week? How about you know, do you
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: personally do you like this week more than next week
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: or no, it doesn't matter.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I used to like this week a lot, but since
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: I've sucked the last few years, I don't really like
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: it anymore. Actually, last year I was good and I
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: sucked in a tournament. This year, this week hasn't been
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: any good.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: I think I've kind of like had enough of the year,
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Like I'm not digging in like I once did, and
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: I'm getting what I deserve. Of course, I don't score
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: the last basket any game. So the Iowa game was
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: they had to get a rebound to cover and they didn't,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: and George Washington was twenty four ahead and didn't cover.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: So it's not like it's all just ridiculous. Virginia got
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: the last three yes, yeah, yes.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: For a tie. Yeah, I've seen that uh, you did
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: have umash.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I told everybody I thought you massoud win this game.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: It was just just Miami. It was just too much
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: from Miami O. They they just went thirty one and
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: oh and the game they won, game thirty one they
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: won was just epic, like the refs might have helped
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: them a little bit, which is good because if we
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: got him in the tournament, it's good. Kick out Indiana
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: who don't deserve to be in. And but somehow they'll
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: probably wiggle their way in. Well, they'll put SMU in.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: I'll find some excuse to put some of these mediocre
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: power schools in because they have quad one wins.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: And Miami O coach made a very good point.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: He said, I call seventy five different schools to schedule
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: a game. They all turned me down. So how is
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: he supposed to get quad one or quad two wins
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: and whatever ridiculous nonsense that they predicate their their seedings
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: and who gets in on It's all very corrupt. And
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: I'll continue to say that to the day I die,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: because I know I'm right. How about just taking the
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: best fucking teams? How about that? How about finding some
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: power ratings they don't have to call a handicapper like me.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: He would be a good idea. He has the top
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: eighty teams in the country, and ill I have no
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: reason to lie because I don't care who plays who.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: I'll make a bet based on you know, or use
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Ken Palm ratings or Sagarin or whatever other computer ratings
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: are out there, and you know they'll be a little flawed,
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: but you know all of them will be a little
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: flawed instead of just quad one. They don't do that
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: because they don't want the best teams in. They want
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: the teams that they think will generate the most money
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: or that have the biggest TV contracts. That's who they
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: want in. Can't have the big majors in there because
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: then they're entitled to all money, and if they have
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: more money, they're a threat to.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: The power schools. But the tournament's ruined as far as
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: I'm concerned.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: They claimed when they expanded the field to sixty eight,
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: they claimed it was to allow more major majors to
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: get in. Of course, last year was the fewest at
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: large big majors that have ever been into the tournament.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: So that's complete horseshit. And you'll see the same thing
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: this year, just you know, if all these bubble teams
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: hadn't lost, and they all lost the last the last week,
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: they've lost every game. So they're gonna have a hard
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: time putting all these teams in because all they do
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: is lose. So now you know in Santa Clara beat
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: Saint Mary's, that that you know. So now there's gonna
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: be three from the West Coast Conference. And if there isn't,
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: there should be a riot. And you know, Miami does
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: not deserve to be in. Their rating isn't good enough.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: But how do you not put them in? They went
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: thirty one and oh again, they took everyone's best shot
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: every every game and and and handled it. They'll be
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: there'll be another riot if they don't put them in.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: So there'll be two for them in American Conference and
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: that'll that'll get all the power schools sick, which makes
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: me happy. Unfortunately there's no Cinderella's because they're just not
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: good enough. You can't overcome if you're paying someone two million,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: you're paying someone one hundred thousand. Yes, who's the better player?
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Right right?
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Well, it's it's the whole thing's ridiculous, It really is.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: It's really just and NATO's just trying to pull someone
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: out of the g I mean, the whole thing's just
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: crazy because he needed a big guy. Fuck him, Fuck
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: them all. I'll be happy when it's over.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Now what what?
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Over the years, we've seen, like you've you've you've had
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: some epic rants about, justifiably about some of the mid majors.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: So you're saying these teams are gonna get screwed, maybe
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: even more now that.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Weren't they did last year. They only got four men
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: h R two years ago.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Indiana State was like better than I think fifteen teams
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: that they put in and they weren't in Saint John's
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: got screwed that year too, but that was probably the
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: anti Patino thing. I don't think they're fans of Patino.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: It's yeah, I mean.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: Huggins always got screwed because he doesn't fit the persona
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: of what the NCAA wants them to look like. You know,
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: he's kind of like, uh uh, he was the best
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: coach of one of the best coaches around, but that
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: don't matter to them. Same thing with cal Perry. Cal
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Perry tells them to go fuck themselves, so they don't
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: like him either. So Arkansas probably get screwed. It's like clockwork.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: It's the same teams get the benefit every year, and
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: the same teams get screwed every years. It's it really
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: and this is not conspiracy, because I happen to know
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: who the best teams are.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: I rate them.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: I probably know better than ninety nine point nine percent
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: of the world, if not one hundred, who the best,
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: who the best teams are, So I know who gets screwed.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: I know who it's proceeded. And it's always the same
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: teams always.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: So you could see it happening again.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: This selection happens every year.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: Sometimes sore they you know, with the team like Miami, Oh,
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: who's thirty one and oh and gets all this press
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: and they're on you know, ESPN, And if they leave
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: them out, then they'll be it'll be just it'll be.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: And believe me, they don't belong in. They're not nearly
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: a good enough team. But they went thirty one and oh,
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: and then Bruce Pearl will be there like, well, Auburn
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: would have won thirty one to oh against that schedule, No,
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: I don't think they would have. I don't think they
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: would have. When you're getting everyone's a game every night.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: It's hard to go thirty one and oh yeah, the
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: last x number of games they've got never one's a
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: game and they stole won by hook or by crook.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: They stole one. So it would really suck if they
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: weren't in.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Alan.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: You've said many different years, this is your last year,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: and you always get talked into it by somebody or
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: maybe a.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Partner or you're you know, you're who you're advising or something.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Do you think this really will be your last year?
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: I can't.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: I can't.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: I crashed this week, like I ran out of gas,
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: and I'm not getting any younger.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: I'll be sixty eight next year when this thing starts.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: And it's thirty three game schedules next year. They expanded
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: this because they're no play enough games now, right. They
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: got to get a little They got to go a
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: little greedier because you know, you know, you always go
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: to college, so you just play basketball, except now they
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: play basketball and the college happens to be the name
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: on their shirt. It has nothing to do with them
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: going to college. If you can transfer four years in
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: a row, you're not getting a degree. The whole thing's
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: the whole thing is is completely completely counterfeit. It's all bullshit,
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: one hundred percent bullshit. It's become all about money. And
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: you know that's what the world, whole world is.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: This.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: There's billion there's a billion dollar TV contract. You have
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: a bunch of guys going behind closed doors and deciding
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: who gets in and who and who's place, miror it's
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: just like our government. They take trillions and tax dollars
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: and they distributed amongst all their friends.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: And the NCAA does the same thing.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: They there's a billion dollar TV contract and all this
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: nil shit and they distributed amongst their friends. It's the
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: same thing behind closed doors. And you know, the government
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: gets caught now. But so what they find fraud of Minnesota,
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: they find fraud in LA. They found Christy Nome spending
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: two hudred and forty million dollars and then they just
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: spent like, uh, who was it? They found the military
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: spent like two hundred million on tables and fruit baskets
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: or whatever the fuck it was right, all right, the
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: troops get to eat offs the tales of steak.
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: That's fine.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: I I you know, even though I'm not a big
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: support the troops guy, because they're not doing anything to
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: protect our country. They're only doing shit to make the
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: military of industrial complex money. Uh and and and oil
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: companies when they when companies like when cities like Iran
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: years ago they had a democratically elected leader and he
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: told us, just like Venezuela, fuck you, you're not taking
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: our oil. Well, we can't have that. So it's it's
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: the same shit. It's just money gets involved and evil happens.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: And that's what goes on in the NCAA tournament. The
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: government's just the best example of it because they they
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: they do it one hundred x. Anyway, I don't know
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: if it's my next my last year or not. I
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: sure a shit hope it is, right, I sure a
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: shit hope it is. I sure as shit. I I
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: I don't enjoy it anymore. I do enjoy doing this,
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: and I'll enjoy meeting everybody out in Vegas. That'll be fun.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: And you know, I just.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: You know, if if we have goals in life, then
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: if I my goal was not to be it was somewhat. Actually,
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: when I read a book called a Handicapper by Robert
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: Kailidge around nineteen eighty eighty one, the first two pages
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: of that book were. This is a guy who stood
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: by the telephone and got this manic influx of phone calls,
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: and he got information from all over the country, and
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: he he put all the information to his internal database
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: and he winged out the winners, just completely instinctively winged
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: it all out. And I said, you know, I want
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: to be that guy one day. Well I became that guy.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: Like around the year two thousand, I doubt anyone could
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: add a better year than me. The year before the
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: odds was before we did. I spent a year and
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: a half a chat on the odds. You know, I
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: I arguably and this is not fragging Like I doubt
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: there's many better at me than this or have been.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: So what I you know, I have nothing to prove
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: and nothing to prove to myself either. This year has
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: been very rewarding in a lot of ways because I'm
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: doing something completely different and I sucked the first month.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: I didn't suck, but I did because what I what
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: I was.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: Doing was not good enough for for you know, I
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: wasn't being a better I was being a line maker.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: And as there's a big difference, we have to be
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: close to perfect on every game. As a better I
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: just look at what I'm off on. And if a
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: game moves, then I take a look at it, see
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: what's going on. But if you're setting a line in
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: a game's move, you're screwed. Like if my buddy has
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: a friend who bet him plus seven because he knew
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: someone was out, well we've already were already screwed. So
• 13:47

• 28:38
  Speaker 3: it first began. He worked with Eric Drake. His hats
• 28:42

• 28:44
  Speaker 3: Hall of Fame just absolute disgrace. Another another ridiculous, Uh,
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: Poker Hall of Fame, Absolutely ridiculous. Him not being in
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: is just crazy.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: How old is he?
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: Eighty to eighty three? Yeah, and he finally started looking
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: at too, but he's still hanging in there.
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: I'll get him there.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: That was m Munchie's fifty eight asking that question before.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Uh, Tyler, and wow, this is some name here,
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Tyler and meet okay, just say Tyler Tyler. When I
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: first heard Allan, I thought he was crazy for saying
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: Roy Williams coach, k et cetera couldn't coach. But he
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: was totally right. He was also correct on Lonardi and
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: all the Power conference what's that fraud Arty?
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Fraud Arty fraud Arty.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: Right and and and uh, all of the power conferences
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: pushing their way into controlling the tournament absolutely correct, And
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: do you feel do you.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Still feel that way this year?
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: Yes, right, of course, I mean him this year, but well,
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: you know they will like even if they get it,
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: like I guarantee Saint Mary's like an eight or nine seed,
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: because Saint Mary's is very good and could win a
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: couple of games.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: But no, we can't have you know, those pesky mid
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: majors hanging around. You'll see mid majors in the eight
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: nine bracket that are dangerous, like Saint Louis utass Dight, uh,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: Saint Mary's. Those types will be an eight or nine
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: is my guess. Okay, maybe maybe a seven or eleven.
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: So they play the two seed one way or another,
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: they'll get them out of there quick because they could
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: beat a lot of three and four seeds.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Oscar Ranierrez does Alan bet the n I T should
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: be a great field this year?
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Question mark question.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: Mark Yes, yes, I bet anything I can.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Okay, Allenson, Will you do the n I T Tournament
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: this year? Wils Okay, so yeah.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: In fact, I could talk about that on Tuesday for
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: this time. If we get through the games. I don't
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: think we will. Opus it's a bunch of bunch of teams.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: In an hour. We do it for an hour, right.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we can go a little bit longer though, that's fine.
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: Oh, we can do an n T show.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Uh where does Alan think?
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Okay, this is Vaughn Schaffer recapping the show from the
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Phoenix ago.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Allen thinks Purdue as a top five or.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: Sixteen Illinois can win it all UCLA rounding it to
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: form what what do you think this?
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: This was?
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: I guess he's actually laughing though. Any of these teams
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: still in your TOPA?
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: Purdue? Uh, Purdue, they are two top players, are not?
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: And that game against Wisconsin, the last game of the
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: year was a real stinker, and and and Wisconsin was
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: without their starting center, who was massively important.
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: They really lack rim protection without him.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: And and there was a complete throwaway game from Wisconsin
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: and Wisconsin still beat him. That was disturbing. On top
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: of the fact that I believe uh Michigan went in
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: there and ran them out of the gym. Uh So,
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: clearly they're a notch below the elite. However, they have
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: the best point guard in the country and and uh
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: and they have a very very very good coach. And
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: you know, sometimes it's good to be the hunted and
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: once again they're kind of like the underdog role. So
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: I could see them final for it. They're not good
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: enough to win the whole thing, but but no one
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: is is. It's a very it's very very narrow. Who
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: can win the whole thing? Michigan, Duke, Florida. Maybe Yukon
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: that's it. Maybe Maybe I don't think Arizona. I mean,
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: they they've done nothing wrong, but I just don't think
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: they're gonna win. I think they're gonna put a clicker in.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: I think I think Yukon's the one like sleeper team,
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: if you want to call them that.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Yukon is a twenty to one.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: By the way, Yeah, it ain't enough, Okay.
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: Probably not like they're still there are three pike dog
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: to the elite teams, and they're gonna have to beat
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: two of them at least and probably win as a
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: small favorite. So what's three points of dollars sixty? Yeah,
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: so maybe twenty to one is not unreasonable.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Just to give some people the idea what we're talking
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: about here. Michigan.
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: Well, we had Firman last week. They won the Southern Conference.
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: I heard one.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: I was really happy.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: I was gonna get on I was gonna, okay, yeah,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: get into that after I get let me get these
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: all right into that, just so people know Michigan and
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Duke around plus three fifty, Arizona plus five to one,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Florida seven to one.
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this is absurd, though it's absurd.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's too low on all that.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: Of course, of course, if there's no no, you're getting
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: screwed on the s. Maybe early in the year if
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: you buy something sneaky and you grab one hundred and
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: one on someone, that might be like thirty forty to one.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: But even then your regis in that big it sounds.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: There's yes and nose. It's like circle circle will put
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: up you know, we'll dupe win it all. No minus
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: four and four.
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fair, right, right, that's fair. Even though they
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: gaps are too big. They they could do better, but
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: it's better than nothing. And again, I I Matt Betcalf,
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: who ran the circuit to start for many years and
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: was just an amazing book maker and really tried hard
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: to to do right for the industry. He told me
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: he put the s nose up because he heard me.
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: Do I think it was Gil Alexander show, and I
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: talked about how the only fair future books that yes,
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: no future book. He heard that and agreed with it
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: and put it up. So I've had some influence.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: The next guy, very relevant to our topic right here,
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: cloud Town four says, I was able to get Duke
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: not to win the title at minus three to ten.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you right now, cloud Town, great bet. It's
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: a great bet. You could take three to fifteen now,
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: I mean it maybe more. I mean it's a great bet.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: I'd like to know where you got that at though,
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: just let me know if you could just respond there.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: I just want to know what.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: Doesn't exist, because if it existed, it would be better
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: up just.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: For the future. I like to know who had that.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: He said he'd bet a twenty five thousand dollars wager.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: That was his next line.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: Wow, So I just wanted to know.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: Wait, good bet.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a good bet. I mean, you know,
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: they're they're they're they're pick what they're gonna be picked twice.
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: Probably that's already three to one.
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: Never mind the chance that you know that someone upsets them.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: Steve Ludwig, who has commented on a lot of my
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: shows and a lot of our shows too, love both
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: of you guys, straight from the mind and heart and conversations.

• 35:14
  Speaker 2: some folks who can't make the seventeenth. Yes, Steve, I'm
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: sure you're hearing this now. I guarantee you have a
• 35:19

• 35:30
  Speaker 4: If he's gonna be there the twenty second.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: Okay, if people are staying the whole weekend, which makes sense,
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: and they're willing to sacrifice the early game on Sunday
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: to have breakfast, like I don't want to schedule. We
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: can't schedule all this in episode and say I'd rather
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: watch the games then go meet some old man, like yeah.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: Right, right, right right, Yeah. Some of these people are
• 35:55

• 35:56
  Speaker 1: Some of the things they say.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: Okay, jerks, tickets all right in town. Eighteen to twenty second,
• 36:03

• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Twitter all day?
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: Like?
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: I know what I mean.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: You're going to peddle through all the bullshit, all the
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: all the haters right right right right?
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: Uh Nemo Ryan's voice, Alan, I share your setup. It
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: about money. I'm not rich, but I'm happy and I
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: work hard every day. But for fun, and say you
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: could have a wave wave of lawns and have a
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: perfect light life set up, what would you look for?
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: What would that look like?
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what would that look like?
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Daily life? You're placing the gambling world, society, etcetera. Love
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: you buddy, So in other words, what what would be
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: the perfect setup in life for you?
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: And what would daily life look like? Interesting?
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well perfect life wasn't this because it ends.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: So there's that. I think, Uh, maybe having fifty fewer
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: IQ points might be better for me.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: That's a start.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Uh wow.
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd own a great day and I'd have a
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: cabin on two hundred acres in the middle of nowhere,
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: probably with a gym nearby, a sauna for sure, and
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: uh some good restaurants. I don't need much more that
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: a movie theater and turntable, which I do own, so
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: I have part of it.
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so you got to what movies you go?
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: I The first course I signed up for at PEN
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: was reviewing and criticism. I watched Cisco Need But every week.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: This is back when they were on PBS Channel two
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: in Boston. Yeah. I was a big movie buff. I
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: I wanted to be a film critic. That was my
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: initial goal. And then I realized I couldn't. I found
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: out quickly I couldn't write, and I couldn't write. Pressure
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: to write the the movie review. I remember I wrote
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: my first movie review. I thought it was great and
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: I had red lines everywhere. You know, be more succinct.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: The good news I learned how to write that that
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: I did learn and that's kind of a lost art
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: and almost irrelevant now with computers, but it's it's still
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: better to be able to write from the heart and
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: write well.
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: Uh so, yeah, I think that's yeah. What more do
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: I need? Some friends?
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: You need this, a great band of jammasana and a
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: seat on two hundred acres. And I'm learning to donate
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: to save elephants. Yeah, that's probably about it. I have
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: my turntable.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: So uh, alan you said, sona, those are things are
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: important to me. I think, do you do any spar
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: sauna now? Dry sauna?
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: No, there is none, but I will in Vegas, Okay,
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: the athletic club has a sauna, and the other gym
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: out there as a sauna too. Both gyms that I
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: go to have a sona and the place I'm staying
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: out will have a steam room. So not quite a
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: good but yeah, saunas are incredibly healthy. They triggered these
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: things called heat proteins, which are anti inflammatories, and only
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: dry suna is gonna do it. The studies. My buddy
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: had a dry suna when he was living at the
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: loft place you pick me up that on near the Archestrat. Yep,
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: great building. But they had a sauna and I went
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: there every day. I never felt better in my life
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: half hour twenty five minutes and they never felt better.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: It's funny. I always thought the steam room was great,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: but the dry sauna has they.
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's they've gone back and forth.
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: You used to think the red light Sona was better,
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: but now the dry sonor again is better.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you go.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: Anytime you shock your system, it's typically good because it rings.
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: You know, you're jumping cold water. It shocks your body,
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: and your body regulates, like when you fast. Your body
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: is being shocked. It regulates.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Do you go after your workout shower? Then you're going
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: to you finish with the.
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: I work out and I go in to Soner and
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: then I shower because you sweat like a pig when you're.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: Okay, and then and then you'll take a cold, cold shower.
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: No I'm not a gay, Yeah, no, I mean yeah,
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: I like the Soner. Yeah, even if people there, I
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: don't mind because I actually can show off, so that's
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: good too.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: Someone in the comments, uh said that you're quick to
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: show off. Yeah, he shows off. That's what he does,
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: that's what he's doing it for.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: Show off. I mean some people in coge I don't
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: know why I'm not.
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: I'm not doing this my shirt off.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: If you only have something bad to say, didn't your
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: mother tell you, your father teach you, don't say it,
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: You're not nice, say don't say it, don't watch. We
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: don't need you to be honest with you. If you
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: want to say something stupid or something bad. Now we're
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: both open to constructive criticism. I'm not saying if you
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: want to say.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: Something properly, yeah, and like here comment he can say
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: it to my face.
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: That might be better.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna read it.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: No stupid thing, Yeah, just a stupid thing. And then
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: and and and uh. But people actually come to our
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: our our defense here too. Sometimes you know people on
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: their anonymity or telephone tough guys.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: You find that all the time.
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, uh me how self?
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: This guy comments a lot, Jimmy g u Jimmy g
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: had All right, Allan, what is your favorite or what
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: what you think is the most compelling conspirat theory?
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: Do you have any conspiracy theories that are compelling that
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: you that you that you agree.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: With it's an interesting question. I don't I don't U like,
• 42:14
  Speaker 4: I don't think there's too many.
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: I think most conspiracy theories are actually true, right, like
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: the whole COVID thing, like we're all to not stop
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: on that. I'm sure there's alien life forms out there.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: I doubt we have them within our grasp like some
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: people claim. So I guess that's a conspiracy theory.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: That's kind of a great, great one.
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't believe that we have aliens in our
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: that we know of that area fifty one or whatever
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: they're claiming, right right, it seems like they.
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: Aliens in our country from another planet.
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: That that wouldn't I don't think that's actually inconceivable that
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: someone will lay ahead of us with all the computers
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: and stuff and.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: And uh we lost them, jas we lost them all right,
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: all right? So it was for that little time out.
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: It wasn't mogi. I shouldn't have played movie, yeah.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: Alan, Uh, you know, it's amazing when.
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: You live there, So I gotta think about that perfect
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: life thing. I think I got most of the things
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: I enjoy uh in there. Yeah, music, movies, a couple
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: of good restaurants and uh Jim.
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: Sonner and a great name. Yeah, that's probably about it.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: That's pretty good. I didn't know if you have an answer,
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: but that.
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: Of course you would spot machines.
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: Actually, gotta have slot machines. Yeah, a little bit better
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: luck this week at slot machines.
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: Then, yeah, yesterday was good. Yeah, yes, they was very good.
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: I lost today, but that's okay.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so. It's pretty close to you too. You
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: don't you don't You don't take steam, do you? I
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: don't know. Do you take steam?
• 43:57
  Speaker 4: And swants?
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: I guess kind of right, okay at times kind of
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: like sometimes when you're steaming you don't know it. It's
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: sometimes you're tilting, you don't know it. No, it's yeah,
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: sometimes you know, you stay on a machine you shouldn't.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: And right, but I don't steam in poker, that's right.
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: But people could subconstantly.
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: Steam and not know it.
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: They're not aware that they're making poor decisions because they're
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: on tilt. It's a it's a fine line. And you know,
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: we're all human and we're all gonna tilt at some point.
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: We all have a breaking point, right.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: The kid Hilly Local Kid all right, of the top
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: ten rated teams, who would he play.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: The know to win the title. Alan is the goat
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: of college basketball. Thank you very much, fellas.
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: Who would you play the know on the top ten teams?
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: Might? I was gonna say, you probably play.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: On the line.
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: Everything's everything's based on a price, like right, you know,
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: if you can lay three to one against anyone, you
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: do it. You can lay four to one against anyone,
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: you do it. But after that it gets a little dicey.
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: I would, I commented, I think Arizona's going to crash out,
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I would bet no on Arizona. Probably lay
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: a lot there. Probably you'd be stealing eight eight to
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: one or nine o one h maybe.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: And they put those prices up with the yes in
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: mind where people betting the yes.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: So those prices are put up there.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah a nose no no, But so the nose or
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: the value a lot of the times is what I'm
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: telling people.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: Let's speaking of the yes. This was the email we
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: got from Kevin Well.
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: I don't know what on the top ten days, I
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: would bet no one, probably any everyone, but farther in Yukon,
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: you know, But again it's based on price, but farther
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: and Yukon in my top two favorites. Even though Duke
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: and Michigan probably are everyone's top two favorites, I'm never
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: going to be with the grain, and uh, Michigan clearly has.
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: Even though Duke beat the Michigan I thought.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: Was a little better of that game, and and I
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: watched it very objectively. I wasn't involved with the game. Uh.
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: I probably should have been because I had the game
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: pick and it was three, but I didn't. I hated
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: my number, which goes freeze with the trust your number.
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: But I think Michigan was better. I think they played again.
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: I think Michigan would beat him. Got a lot of
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: a lot of calls.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: Minus six fifty just to let you know really that
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: that's really well.
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so the no, no, no minus six fifty. Yeah,
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: I would say it's bulletline stealing.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you have a lot of ev there.
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: Like all right, So you're rather they're going to be
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: a dog in several games.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: Then than laying six hundred on Florida.
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: You'd rather No, I.
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: Like Florida, but six hundreds too low. Yeah, it's all
• 46:46
  Speaker 4: too low.
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: But I don't know.
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: I think I do think Florida's gonna win it.
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: And six hundreds, no bargain. That's probably what the right
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: price is this. I'm rated higher. I got them rated
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: the same as Duke and Michigan. But now Duke's down
• 46:59
  Speaker 3: a starter for the US of the Year and the
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: starting center is out for this tournament. They should This
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: is gample of a team that should dump tonight Duke.
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: They have two starters out. You can't afford to get
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: someone else hurt. Just dump the game. Get another team
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: into the ACC too, A Florida stay beat Duke. They'd
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: probably be getting the tournament.
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: So by the time it comes out, people are going
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: to see it seventeen.
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm just saying that's what they should do. That's
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: not normally what they do witness. So here's an example Virginia.
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: This is actually pretty relevant. Virginia ACC tournament. They had
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: seven guys dressed up. They had three guys hurt and
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: guys playing hurt. They literally had a beat up team
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: with guys out and guys hurt, and they were.
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: A one seed no matter what, right right, They won
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: the ACC tournament.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: They won three games in three days and then got
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: destroyed by Marilyn Baltimore County. They were never in the game,
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: they had nothing left in a tank. Instead of dumping
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: the first game with all the crippled players they had,
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: getting them re have somewhat getting ready for the Thursday game,
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: they didn't. So they won the battle, but they lost
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: the war. Yeah, and that's that's what all the you know,
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: that's what all these seems to look at. If I
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: were a big major, I might dump the whole year.
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: Don't show anyone what you're doing. Come out and play
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: man the man all year when you're actually putting some
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: matchup zone in and and spring it during the tournament
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: interesting start, you know, just jumble your lineups occasionally. You
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: can't just create bad habits all the time. But I'm
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: making a point, I'm exaggerating, But that's that's because the
• 48:29
  Speaker 3: only thing that matters is the conference tournament right right now.
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: Sometimes the way.
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: They're they're staggering it now where the Sun Belt you
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: had to win seven games and seven days, you are
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: at the bottom. Obviously, you can't dump the whole year
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: because you're not gonna win seven games in seven days.
• 48:41
  Speaker 3: Although Jordan Sell them won five and five, but they
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: had nothing left at the sixth, especially against the first game.
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I won that one actually, But.
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I I I the people, but no one looks
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: at big pictures, right, That's what greed gets involved. Like
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: if everyone just didn't overdo parlay cards and all the
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: rest of that, they'd still be here. But you're three
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: D people. And then people brag about how smart they
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: are with the parlay cards and tell everybody else and
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: instead of just you know, trying to win a little bit.
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: What Al's talking about is the sportsbooks don't have the
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: parlay cards anymore. Where they had NFL games, you'd bet
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: the you know, the slower moving lines. It's gone, though,
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: I can't name one place that has parlay cards.
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, they were a lot of fun and they
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: were big business for the place, but people took advantage
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: of it. The game would be three on a parlay
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: card and the quarterback would be out. Now it's seven,
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: and people would just pile in you know that and
• 49:31
  Speaker 3: one other team that was off, and just pile in
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: all the parlays. So even though they get involved on
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: a price, they really weren't right exactly, but they got greedy.
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: Now you don't have them. It's like if there's a
• 49:41
  Speaker 4: broken slot machine.
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: As long as you didn't go and bury that slot machine.
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: They're never gonna know.
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: So don't you want to win one hundred dollars a
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: day or a week for the rest of your life
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: or win one shot and say something ain't right here
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: it's but it's you know again, it's we're human.
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: The ones that do have it are they take the
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: games off the board. Now, last one was Michigan minus
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: four thirty on the no, so you'd say more than
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: no there.
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: I'd link to know there. Yeah, they're probably even the
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: biggest upside. Like what they did in that tournament Vegas
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: was ridiculous where they had they'd become Zaga by forty.
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: They had them forty down, like in the first half.
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: It was crazy. They buried three teams by forty. I
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: think it was Auburn and San Diego State and I
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: don't know, I don't remember, but it was impressive. They'd
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: be three very good teams and they had them all
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: forty down.
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: And this this was going on to the one.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: This is the third or maybe the fourth, the fourth
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: person that said something on either Twitter or this one's
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: an email to Alan, uh this was about Furman.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: I think it was about Furman. Yeah, Furman.
• 50:48
  Speaker 4: Okay, actually, actually I got those right. I don't.
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: I said Belmont probably was overrated, why knocking. They got
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: knocked out in the first round, and I thought Furman
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: would in the Southern Conference. Someone asked me about over
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: rate and underrated, and that's what I came up with.
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: So even even an old man picks a winner once
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: in a while.
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: Kevin, I'm not going to say your last name, but
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: Alan and I would love to know how you did this.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna read you the email.
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: Can I please have a contact for Alan. He just
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: made me a lot of money from his and crack show.
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: I just want to personally thank him. Sixty three dollars
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: till a little over twenty thousand and four days, and
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: it wasn't possible without Alan saying something about Furman. I've
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: been in ten k worth of credit card debt in
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: two years now, and Alan helped me get completely debt free.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: I'm just appreciated him, and yeah, he was just very nice,
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: a very nice. It goes on and on to even more,
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: but I'd love to know. I think Alan would too.
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: How you do that with sixty three dollars?
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, even if he parlayed him every day on the
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: money line, it doesn't come close to twenty thousand.
• 51:51
  Speaker 4: So good for him, all accurate. Good for him. That's amazing.
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: So he had only yeah, but.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: He had to put his own teams in there. He
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: had to more than that. And maybe that's what he
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: was trying to say.
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: It's not a help.
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: That's because I put Burma So you know, yeah, he
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: obviously took some initial did.
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: Other people reached out to me on Twitter about Furman
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: two and thank you?
• 52:12
  Speaker 3: So yeah, but just could I say something, You still
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: have to get the right price on it.
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: Like it.
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: Just because I like something doesn't mean that that it's
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: a good bet. He gave us to win the tournament,
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: but taking five and a half to one on him
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: was no bargain.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: Like Alan just gave us one minus six and a
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: half to one. Who is that? No one, Arizona, Arizona.
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: If you were to say Alan, they're offering minus nine fifty, Alan,
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: I say, you know what, I'm not laying ten to
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: want it's too high. Six fifty is a good price,
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: you know, But exactly maybe that there's a person not
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: a good price.
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: There's a price on everything in life. You can have
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: a price on on. You know how many people are
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: gonna cross the street in the next hour like this,
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: You can take the price right right Arizona, Mark Lindsay,
• 52:53
  Speaker 3: how's that?
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: There you go, Mark Lindsay, No, I don't know, that's
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I don't know where that is.
• 53:00
  Speaker 3: Well you said, there you go, like like Arizona. Mark
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: Lindsay was the lead singer Paul Revere in the Raiders.
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: He had a one wonder with Arizona. It's a great song.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: I thought that was an old player or something.
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, it's a one hit wonder from Mark
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: Lindsay who was lead singer Paul Revere and the Raiders
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: at the time.
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: We did that.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: Alan was asked, You asked about all those things that
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: he would like to have, a turntable and stuff he'd
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: have to have. The turntable might be the most important
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: out of all those things. He has to have some music.
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: That's the most important one.
• 53:31
  Speaker 4: I did buy a turntable last year. Yeah, and it's
• 53:34
  Speaker 4: very very nice.
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: And I bought some records and I have some boys.
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: Where do you get them? Where do you get the
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: records on the bay?
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: Or my buddy buys and sells records for a living.
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: But he's got he's going to he's fighting cancer now,
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: so I'm not bothering him with the records. I gotta
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: go visit him when I get back. Actually. Uh, but
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: he he would tell me what to buy. He told
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: me some. He told me something to buy too, to
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: put off a side, you know, like thirty dollars. He said,
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: this is thirty dollars is worth a hunter right now?
• 53:58
  Speaker 4: Hold on, it will be worth three. So I have
• 54:00
  Speaker 4: I have a few of those.
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in New York, he knows.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what were they call him?
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: But there was used to be one on Bleaker Street,
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: Bleeker Bob's, uh for the caddy corner from John's. I'm
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: sure it's not there anymore. But they'd have the old
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: record stores, so bootleg stores. You know, they had a
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: bootleg record stores. But the rents too high.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: They have this.
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: There used to be a great record store on Charleston
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: and Las Vegas Boulevard, right next to the White the
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: White Uh, yes, is that place store around?
• 54:29

  Speaker 3: Oh the anymore?
• 54:33

• 54:36
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 54:36
  Speaker 4: They had they had great food there.
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: They had this little old school seated diner in the
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: back was bent Test.
• 54:43
  Speaker 4: But there was a record store.
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: I think it was a Honesty Records maybe that sold
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: used records, and then when cassettes when came around, they
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: became a CD store and then they went out of business.
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: There are a couple of used record stores in Vegas.
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: But these get know. It's all on the internet.
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: You know how to price everything, but some of the
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: people on eBay, Uh, you don't need money or or
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: don't quite know the value of it because you know
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: it might be a one off thing, or there might
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: not be a lot of them, you know, and there's
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: there's no place to really search a price. But this
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: kid knows what they're all worth. So right right right,
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: those that I rob, I completely rob one of them.
• 55:16
  Speaker 3: I paid like one hundred and five dollars that it's
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: four it's four hundred right now? Wow?
• 55:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, great, So it's three at all. So we're gonna
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: do that.
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: I put in a fucking slot machine can blow it
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: into ten minutes.
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: Hey, at least you're honest, mister.
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: So I don't know any other ways.
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know to stand the point of lying unless
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: you're talking to a cop. Then you'll lie of course, Alan.
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: Alan in California's Flip.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: What do you think Charlie meant when he looked at
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: Bill after they want all the money.
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: In the end?
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't want to. I don't want to
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: answer this guy tell him that, oh yeah, because it
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: kind of ruins the movie. Okay, it's the end of
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: the movie. And and and I told someone I would
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: if someone didn't get it, I'd answer it. But I
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: don't know if all right, so here, if you don't
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: want to know the any complay split mute the next
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: because yeah, all right, so one, two, three, four, five,
• 56:07
  Speaker 3: so you can finish the question.
• 56:08
  Speaker 4: And how I think anyone's gonna ask?
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: Okay, after they want all the money.
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: After you want all the money at the end, and said,
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: it doesn't mean a fucking thing, does it?
• 56:19
  Speaker 3: And Eli says everyone knows that, right, And that's the
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: whole point of the movie, is Charlie was was this.
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: I've talked about this, this unhappy hates his job, separated
• 56:31
  Speaker 3: from his wife and gravitates towards his mannic I don't
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: give a fuck, care free gambler and gets immersed in
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: his world. And then they go and win all this
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: money but in the end it didn't change the fact
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: that he's fucking miserable.
• 56:44
  Speaker 4: It just masked it.
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: And he said, it doesn't mean a fucking thing, does it. No,
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: it doesn't, because ultimately it doesn't What does that mean.
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: It means you have some money, but it hasn't changed
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: the fact you hate your job and you separated from
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: your wife and you still have to deal with life
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: in general. So he thought that that his escape into
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: this craziness would solve his issues. That's what he was
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: But in the end he knows it was just it
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: was just masking them. And it's anyone who's been a
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: gambler and had success. Yeah, you have a temporary joy
• 57:14
  Speaker 3: of of of making a score, but ultimately, what difference
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: does it make? Right now? Granted he could have done
• 57:22
  Speaker 3: something good with his because it was life changing money
• 57:24
  Speaker 3: they won.
• 57:24
  Speaker 4: But it didn't.
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: It didn't get rid of that empty feeling he had
• 57:29
  Speaker 3: of being alone in the world with a job he hated.
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: This is I hope that answered it, but that that
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: that's that's what he meant, That's what he meant by it.
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: This this is a good ending for the show. Here
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: a little bit deep.
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: Jar alerts I'll read the whole thing, okay, because a
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: little bit long, but I kind of like where he's
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: gone with this. I think, Alan, I've heard you talk
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: about leaving Vegas, consulting back east and wondering if you
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: still have have it. I'm in the same world as you,
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: just from a different angle, building something that lies, that
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: lives and dies on trust, truth, not hype, and I
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: felt the same shift you described. The game didn't just change,
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: the world changed around it. What I've always respected is
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: that you carved out your own path when that actually
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: meant something, and you never hid the cost of living
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: that way.
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: You're one of the.
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: Last people who still thinks and talks about life this
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: way and the craft that it is not content. So
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: here's my question. When you look at where you are now,
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: the doubt, the distance from Vegas, the consulting, the reflection,
• 58:36
  Speaker 2: do you feel like you're losing the game or do
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: you feel like the game lost the kind of people
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: it was built for.
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: I think I think more of the ladder than the former.
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: I think I think I've lost the game because the
• 58:52
  Speaker 3: game lost me more than I think that triggered my
• 58:57
  Speaker 3: my not giving a fuck about this anymore. Uh so, Yeah,
• 59:02
  Speaker 3: I definitely definitely the game. The world changed and around
• 59:06
  Speaker 3: me and and uh created me wanting to get away
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: from it. Yeah, it's uh.
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: And he's right, everything's bullshit, pretty deep, pretty cool, pretty good.
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: But it's it's kind of like, uh so, like uh.
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: I had a couple of words of my yearbook quote.
• 59:25
  Speaker 3: One was independent. I always wanted to be independent.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: I was wanted.
• 59:28
  Speaker 3: I I can't work for somebody who's because I I
• 59:31
  Speaker 3: if some idiot tells me what to do and I
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: know it ain't gonna happen like I, I wouldn't handle
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: it well because I would probably call him out and
• 59:39
  Speaker 3: being a moron, and why the fuck you got to
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: do that? We could do this? But yeah, and I said,
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: work is a good way a while away the time
• 59:47
  Speaker 3: and a bad way to make a living, which isn't
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: quite right. But because I do work hard when I'm
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: doing this. But that's that's what I talked about earlier.
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: I've lost kind of lost my fight a little bit.
• 59:56
  Speaker 3: I haven't worked out hard this week on the games,
• 59:59
  Speaker 3: and and and the results kind of reflect that a
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: little bit.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 4: Uh But no, really really good question.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: And and my my path was driven almost accidental, and in
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 3: therapy I learned it was triggered by a Jungle Books
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: lunchbox that I got shipped on for. And I won't
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: go the whole route from there, but it's funny, how
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 3: how you know a Jungle Book lunchbox that I bought
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 3: when I was eight years old, that I got shipped
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: on for it. I triggered this loner of life that
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 3: I've that I've lived, and and you know I wanted it.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 3: I didn't want a wife, I didn't want kids. I
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 3: didn't think that bringing kids on this planet was a
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: good thing, so and and and I didn't even want
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: a dog because the loss is too painful and you
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: know it. So that's why I didn't want a woman
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: in my life. I just know I played it safe.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: I actually copped out, and and me becoming a gamblers
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: copping out, it was very very easy for me to
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 3: do this. I never challenged myself. The place I challenged
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: myself was the gym. I was pretty heavy kid too,
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 3: fifteen when I was in my twenties. So that's where
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 3: I've actually you know, I think I talked about this before.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 3: That's where I've actually gone out and gone to a
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: place that I'm not comfortable at and won. That's winning
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 3: in life. Me being a sports better. It's very very
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: easy for me. The thought process is automatic. Yeah, I've
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 3: worked at it, and that's good. I have some of
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 3: the same dedication I had the gym I did with
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 3: this job. But I've lost some of that fight to
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 3: dedicate X number of hours a day to this because
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 3: I'd rather go play a slot machine. And that's that's
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: when I talk about where or I've lost some resolve.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: Is just that willingness to sit here and think and
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: read and think and read and think and read has disappeared.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: And again go back to the question before. Because I
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 3: hate I actually hate the game, and I hate the
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 3: world we live in. So because it's changed so much,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 3: because it's it's I don't I don't know how much
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: it's changed. I think I think it has changed. I
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 3: think it's all been there. It's just not a larger
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: scale of bullshit now where we just fed bullshit after
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: bullshit after bullshit. We've always been doing that. The good
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 3: news it's becoming more exposed that all this fraud that
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 3: the government has and all this waste of our money
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: and all of the lying about uh, you know, they
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 3: lied about thirty thousand people being shot by by Iran Iranians,
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: which was a complete lie. We were arming the citizens
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 3: with guns for christ sake, like the whole, the whole.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: It's just all propaganda that we spend a lot of
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: our tax dollars on and and it's just becoming. The
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: good news is people are learning about it. The bad
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 3: news is until we vote for a libertarian or some
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 3: third party candidate, it's never gonna change because Trump is
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: just uh, you know, uh Obama, except you know, from
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: a different place. They're both the same. They both waste
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: our money and bomb countries illegally and kill innocence and
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: and and lie. So it's really tone, it's all kind
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 3: all right.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 2: Well listen, we're over an hour here, guys, Okay, please
