Lunch with the Clydesdale - What is Your Best Bet for the Weekend? · Clydesdale Media Podcast

0:02
What if I told you I know the
0:05
one way that we can grow the sport
0:08
of CrossFit?
0:10
I bet you can figure it out.
0:12
Let's talk about it now.
0:25
I love the chase and the hunt,
0:26
and I set the pace when I'm running.
0:28
I always take what I want,
0:29
and I always give it one hundred.
0:31
Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
0:32
Play the game like it's nothing.
0:34
I'm always thankful for something.
0:35
Don't take for granted, stay humble.
0:37
Now wake up!
0:38
It's time to look at the enemy.
0:40
Look in the mirror if he is no
0:43
friend to me.
0:45
What is going on everybody?
0:46
Welcome to lunchtime.
0:49
It's time to have lunch with my friends.
0:51
We've got Corey in the chat.
0:53
We've got Jess.
0:54
What is going on, guys?
0:57
So good to hang out with you today.
1:00
Corey says, time to test Scott's internet.
1:05
Well, internet is fine,
1:08
but my laptop is not good.
1:14
Might be fried.
1:16
I have an appointment to see somebody
1:18
tonight to look at it,
1:20
but for some reason it will not connect
1:22
to the internet and stay connected.
1:24
so um so yeah so that's my night's
1:29
night is taking my laptop over to the
1:33
pc doctor and see if we can get
1:36
it up and running again um but right
1:40
now i'm on an ipad at least i
1:42
can see the comments this way i can
1:44
stay um
1:47
I can stay horizontal for Joseph.
1:50
I can do all those things.
1:52
But right now,
1:53
just glad to be able to hang out
1:54
with all of you all.
1:56
And got Jake in the chat, got Jody,
1:59
got Craig, Frida, Vicki.
2:02
You're not late.
2:03
We just got started.
2:06
Jess says, oh, that's no good.
2:08
Hey.
2:10
At least it's not my internet and stuff
2:12
going on in my house.
2:13
Maybe it's just a quick fix.
2:16
Um, of my laptop.
2:18
Cause everything else seems to be working
2:20
okay with my laptop.
2:21
It's just,
2:22
it won't connect to the internet.
2:24
Um,
2:25
so hopefully I did a full reset of
2:28
my laptop overnight.
2:30
Um, got wiped everything off of it.
2:33
Started fresh from scratch with the
2:35
factory settings.
2:36
And, uh, yeah.
2:44
Jake, Jake, Jake.
2:46
No,
2:47
I did not try to take it where
2:49
Hunter Biden took his.
2:52
So anyway.
2:58
Vicky, I feel your pain.
3:00
I've been fighting with audio issues all
3:01
day.
3:03
Is Mercury in retrograde?
3:05
I would not even know.
3:07
I wouldn't know.
3:12
Joseph says, I'm still running AOL.
3:14
I'm not running out.
3:15
I've got fiber optic cable internet.
3:18
The internet is fine.
3:20
It is, my laptop is smoked,
3:23
but I have my iPad today.
3:25
So at least for you,
3:28
I can be horizontal and still see the
3:30
chat this way.
3:32
So,
3:32
but I hate being like this close to
3:34
the screen,
3:35
but it's the only way I have to
3:37
use the touchscreen to get the comments
3:38
over.
3:39
So here we are.
3:43
So what is up for everyone?
3:48
It was announced yesterday that Hayley
3:52
Adams is withdrawing from the final WFP
3:57
stop in Copenhagen or the finals,
4:03
which is wild because she has not
4:05
participated in a single event after being
4:09
assigned pro-athlete.
4:12
these are some of the issues that i
4:13
think are facing the wfp and i say
4:16
they have a pr problem when you have
4:19
a signed pro athlete um with the following
4:23
that haley adams has and she doesn't
4:27
attend a single tour stop it's it's not
4:33
it's not a good look for your league
4:35
at all um and so
4:39
And I'm not, this is not,
4:41
before you all come at me from the
4:44
WFP side, this is not a smear campaign.
4:47
This is just saying it's a PR issue
4:49
that has to be dealt with.
4:56
And in addition to Haley,
4:57
we have Victor Hoffer,
4:59
who is withdrawing due to an injury.
5:03
And when he was signed...
5:08
we were all saying we couldn't believe
5:10
that he was one of the athletes picked.
5:12
Because when has he been healthy to
5:17
compete at any event in any of the
5:20
CrossFit seasons or other seasons?
5:24
So he's out, Haley's out.
5:27
I think these are things that are facing
5:29
the WFP that they never expected.
5:31
You have Dallin Pepper with...
5:34
Rabdo and now John Wood is coming out
5:37
saying that there's just too many
5:38
competitions in a season and it's pushing
5:41
athletes to the limit.
5:43
I don't necessarily agree with that.
5:46
Been chatting with the ladies over the
5:48
last twenty four hours on that.
5:50
And we're going to get into that a
5:51
lot more on Sunday night.
5:55
Carolyn has some pretty strong thoughts
5:58
on.
6:01
Why the rabdo?
6:03
What's happening to the athletes?
6:04
Are they truly beat up?
6:05
All of that stuff.
6:06
We'll talk about that on Sunday night for
6:08
sure.
6:17
I hate that YouTube has switched off
6:19
names.
6:23
NLEMOO says,
6:25
I think something deeper is going on with
6:27
Haley.
6:28
Not related to WFP,
6:29
she didn't perform well at the games,
6:31
and we haven't seen her compete anywhere
6:33
else lately either.
6:38
I'm not sure it's something deeper.
6:40
I don't...
6:43
I think that there were promises made at
6:46
the beginning that really haven't come to
6:49
fruition with the WFP.
6:52
I think that truly what's happened is
6:54
she's prioritized her season.
6:57
She's looked at the events that are out
6:58
there.
6:59
She's looked at, um,
7:03
she started to participate in the game
7:05
season and maybe she thought that was just
7:08
enough for her.
7:09
And that's why she decided not to do
7:11
anything else.
7:12
I don't,
7:13
I'm not sure if it's anything deeper than
7:14
that.
7:15
Um,
7:18
by all accounts on everything you've seen,
7:21
she's just happy now.
7:22
And maybe competing in CrossFit has
7:26
dropped down a peg or two on the
7:29
priority list.
7:36
Emma McQuaid hasn't done any either,
7:38
by the way.
7:38
Smaller name than Haley,
7:40
but still a signed pro, isn't she?
7:43
She is, but I don't think that
7:46
I think that was announced earlier,
7:48
and it's been due to injury.
7:51
But she had announced she had a pretty
7:54
bad injury going into this season,
7:57
which surprised me why the WFP would then
7:59
sign her if she had that injury.
8:05
And they weren't sure she was going to
8:06
make it through the season anyway.
8:09
So Joseph has strong thoughts.
8:14
He is out on the WFP.
8:17
And he says the WFP is imploding.
8:21
I just think it's a bad look.
8:22
And they have to figure it out.
8:27
I don't know.
8:29
And it's a PR nightmare for them that
8:32
they have to deal with all of this
8:34
in addition to trying to run a
8:37
competition.
8:40
So.
8:44
Well, Corey says, the WFP,
8:46
nothing they do surprises him at this
8:48
point.
8:48
Well, I don't think they did anything.
8:51
They're just announcing that athletes are
8:53
withdrawing.
8:55
That's not an action they've taken.
8:57
It's just something happening to them.
9:01
It's how do they deal with that moving
9:03
forward.
9:06
So I don't know.
9:11
Freda says,
9:12
next two to three months will be
9:13
interesting.
9:14
I agree.
9:18
And what's interesting about this,
9:19
and it's a nice segue,
9:20
is I just watched the Katie Henninger
9:24
interview with Coffee Pods and Wads this
9:25
morning.
9:28
When you listen to her,
9:31
you can tell that their focus at Rogue
9:34
is to treat the athletes the way she
9:37
wanted to be treated when she was an
9:38
athlete.
9:40
And that's just the way they do things.
9:42
That's the way that's part of their ethos.
9:45
Right.
9:46
And we heard a lot of that with
9:47
WFP.
9:49
But take a look at how the athletes
9:52
are treated at Rogue and their enthusiasm
9:55
to go to Rogue and how they feel
9:58
about Rogue.
10:00
When you hear WFP saying the same things.
10:04
that they want to be for the athletes,
10:06
that they want to treat the athletes well,
10:08
they want to give athletes opportunities,
10:10
you don't hear the athletes responding in
10:13
the same positive way that they do with
10:16
Rogue.
10:19
And when you hear Katie talking about,
10:21
like, what a handshake means to her,
10:24
and when you...
10:25
When you make a handshake with somebody
10:27
and you tell them you're going to do
10:28
something, then you do it.
10:30
That's how she was raised.
10:32
That's how she moves through life.
10:36
That's how she just is.
10:38
That's part of the fabric of her being.
10:42
And I think that's the piece that WFP
10:47
has missed.
10:49
They did a handshake with people promising
10:52
them X.
10:53
And they gave them why.
10:57
And when Rogue promised something,
11:00
they delivered.
11:04
But I find it interesting that, like,
11:06
you know,
11:07
Rogue kind of did all of this stuff
11:09
first.
11:11
Now, they show up.
11:12
They take care of the athletes.
11:13
They pay for their way.
11:15
They give them a stipend to get there.
11:19
They give them cool gifts when they get
11:21
there.
11:24
They make it a competition that highlights
11:29
them.
11:31
And it just was,
11:33
just thinking about it in retrospect,
11:38
what Rogue has pulled off I think is
11:41
what WFP wanted to pull off,
11:44
but they just never came close to doing
11:46
it.
11:51
Corey Leonard,
11:52
I'm assuming they don't have a plan in
11:54
place to deal with it because I'm willing
11:56
they bet they thought Haley's situation
11:58
would never happen.
12:00
Well, they backfilled her position.
12:05
Elena Caratalis got the backfill.
12:12
So there's that.
12:14
But I don't think they've done anything to
12:16
talk about the PR aspect of it.
12:22
Alito, Rogue grew a lot more organically.
12:25
I feel they never announced what their
12:27
goal was unless specifically asked.
12:29
They also have one event.
12:35
They have one event.
12:36
You say that, but here's the difference,
12:40
right?
12:42
Rogue is there for everyone else.
12:46
Rogue is a fabric of the community.
12:49
Rogue doesn't have one event.
12:51
They host one event that has their title
12:54
on it.
12:55
But they outfit the games.
12:58
They outfit Strongman all over the world.
13:01
When you listen to Katie talk about that
13:04
they were packing up the games,
13:08
and in the meantime,
13:09
at the very same time,
13:10
they were packing cargo ships or cargo
13:13
crates to go on ships to send equipment
13:16
over to
13:18
Scotland for their event they are a part
13:22
of every event and they're a part of
13:24
the fabric and that's why they're more
13:26
successful because they're more in touch
13:28
with what's going on when Katie was asked
13:31
by Peter if she watches other events she's
13:34
like how would I not one I'm a
13:38
fan of the sport two how do I
13:40
learn if I don't have an open mind
13:42
to what other people are doing
13:45
Like all those things were jaw dropping
13:47
because of the,
13:48
the answers other people have given to
13:51
those same questions.
13:53
And so that's the difference.
13:56
If Rogue wanted to pull off three events,
13:58
they could pull off three events.
14:01
Um, they just,
14:05
they're just choosing not to.
14:10
Um,
14:16
Craig is saying,
14:16
is Rogue doing premium viewing again this
14:19
year?
14:19
They are.
14:21
It's actually being hosted by Zach
14:24
Tellender.
14:28
He's going to be hosting it this year.
14:30
They are going to have the enhanced camera
14:32
that you can move around from lane to
14:35
lane.
14:37
I get it every year.
14:39
It is so worth it because you can
14:41
move the camera.
14:41
You can look for every
14:44
athlete on the floor.
14:46
It is one of the coolest innovations that
14:49
has come out in the sport.
14:59
Frida, yeah,
15:00
and because it is invite-only,
15:02
it means more focus on the athletes as
15:04
well.
15:05
Right,
15:05
and they do limit it to twenty athletes
15:07
on each side because they know that's what
15:10
they can handle.
15:11
It is...
15:13
It's actually putting a business plan
15:15
together and following it.
15:17
That's why.
15:25
Hector,
15:26
the other difference is that Rogue knows
15:28
their place and really don't want to take
15:30
the game's place.
15:32
Right.
15:32
You know where they stand.
15:33
You know what they're doing.
15:35
And they are there to support the games
15:37
as well.
15:45
Corey just looked at their valuation,
15:47
supposedly took in two hundred fifty
15:49
million.
15:50
If they wanted to host three events,
15:52
they could host three events.
15:54
I think, though,
15:55
the way the effort they put into it,
15:57
they know this is what they can do
15:59
at one hundred percent.
16:00
And they probably don't want to go more
16:02
than that.
16:04
They don't want to be the WFP.
16:05
They don't want to compete on seasons.
16:08
They want to do their thing.
16:13
And the other thing they're doing, like,
16:16
I'll admit, I am biased to Rogue.
16:19
They are here in Columbus.
16:20
We are proud of what they do.
16:22
They are great for this city.
16:25
And they're adding on to their facility
16:28
because they have four locations in
16:31
Columbus.
16:32
They had five.
16:33
They consolidated to one.
16:35
They grew so much that they had four
16:37
buildings again.
16:39
And now they're adding on to consolidate
16:41
back to one again.
16:43
it is so it's such an amazing place
16:47
um and we are so lucky to have
16:48
them here um vicky i agree the video
16:59
setup is awesome and amazing um craig uh
17:05
he's purchased it every year as well yeah
17:09
if you're not purchasing that for twenty
17:10
five bucks
17:12
Like, you're missing out.
17:13
It's so good.
17:24
Corey,
17:25
I would one hundred percent work for
17:26
Rogue.
17:27
I've never heard a bad story about them.
17:29
Well, I live here,
17:30
so I have heard bad stories,
17:32
but generally it is like they expect a
17:35
lot.
17:37
And if you're not willing to put in
17:39
that work like they do,
17:41
They are,
17:47
that's not in their ethos to not work
17:51
hard.
17:51
If you're not going to go in there
17:52
and work hard,
17:53
you're going to hear about it.
17:59
Don't forget, Scott Will said,
18:01
he and the team will be getting a
18:03
WFPHQ soon.
18:05
They plan to do for that what Rogue
18:08
has done for Ohio.
18:11
interesting i would love to see that not
18:18
gonna happen and uh someone may be
18:28
obsessed i may have to purchase it just
18:30
so i can watch colton the entire time
18:38
yeah it it is it is a really
18:40
cool
18:41
When they added the movable camera last
18:43
year to the stream and you could move
18:46
the camera to whatever lane you wanted and
18:48
watch whatever you wanted,
18:52
they had me at hello on that one,
18:54
man.
19:04
Joseph Ramirez,
19:05
they're going to build their HQ in
19:06
Argentina.
19:10
So I'm assuming that that's what all these
19:13
trips around the world have been,
19:14
to recruit and to find the location of
19:17
their new HQ,
19:19
whether it should be in Hawaii or Monaco
19:21
or Spain or Germany,
19:24
wherever they're going.
19:31
Yeah, what is more likely,
19:33
WFP finding an HQ or Frank having ten
19:37
thousand affiliates at his beck and call?
19:41
flip a coin so the other thing I
19:49
want to talk about real quick is my
19:52
Monday show is in peril I've been
19:56
scheduled for a meeting at lunch time even
19:59
though I blocked that off on my calendar
20:01
hate that so I either am going to
20:04
go at one or just cancel the show
20:07
let me know what your thoughts in the
20:09
chat
20:13
So the other thing I want to talk
20:18
about, Katie said,
20:20
is the leaks and how she handles them
20:22
and how she looks at them.
20:25
What I find amazing is, like Peter said,
20:27
I didn't even know you had other people
20:28
test other than Josh and Chris.
20:32
Well,
20:32
our very own Carolyn Prevo has tested for
20:35
Rogue in the past two years.
20:39
When she tests for Rogue,
20:40
she doesn't even tell us until after the
20:43
fact.
20:44
So she was a tester for Rogue in
20:46
twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four
20:50
testing workouts for Rogue.
20:53
And she has come to Columbus and never
20:55
even told me she was here and then
20:58
back out.
20:59
But they are so adamant about the leakage.
21:04
And Hiller was even brought up in that
21:06
conversation.
21:07
that when he does find the leak,
21:08
he figures,
21:10
I need to tell the world so everybody
21:12
has a fair shake.
21:13
Katie said, I agree with that.
21:15
If we find out that there's a leak,
21:17
we will tell all the athletes at that
21:19
time, whatever that leak is.
21:22
And I love the way that she handled
21:24
that and that she looks at that.
21:28
And it just shows why they're so
21:29
successful and why Rogue is,
21:34
is looked at as a premier event by
21:36
the athletes to go to.
21:38
So I thought that was cool.
21:42
Uh,
21:42
the next thing I want to talk about,
21:44
I've said on the show before,
21:46
and I don't,
21:47
and I'm saying it again today,
21:48
just because of what's happened in the NBA
21:50
in the last twenty four hours.
21:53
If you don't know, um,
21:54
a couple members in the NBA were arrested
21:57
by the FBI over gambling in the sport.
22:03
Um,
22:05
What happened was that a player started a
22:11
game and he left seven or nine minutes
22:14
into the game.
22:16
And at the same time,
22:19
at the same time,
22:21
the bets for him to get an under
22:23
of his scoring in that game skyrocketed.
22:28
And because of legalized gambling,
22:34
The sites were able to see the spike
22:37
and identified that there was something
22:40
crazy going on the day it happened.
22:44
And so now they are arresting them and
22:51
bringing them in.
22:52
The other thing that's happened is the one
22:54
coach was tipping off people to who may
22:57
start and who we may sit in games
23:00
to help with the betting.
23:02
And again,
23:03
that was all detected by these legalized
23:06
gambling sites the day it happens because
23:10
of the spike it shows on their algorithm.
23:15
But my question to you is,
23:17
when you see growth in sports,
23:19
a lot of time gambling is associated with
23:23
that.
23:24
When you give people a vested interest in
23:26
the outcome of live sports,
23:29
it grows that sport.
23:32
And we sit around this world and every
23:36
phone has betting apps that you can
23:38
download immediately and you can bet on
23:44
things.
23:45
I think CrossFit is tailor-made for prop
23:48
bets.
23:50
I know that the Heat One app has
23:53
dipped their toe in the water.
23:55
But when you add money,
23:58
you add a huge vested interest in the
24:01
outcome of those events.
24:03
And I think it helps grow the sport
24:06
because then people have a diehard rooting
24:09
interest in the outcome of what happens.
24:13
And now I don't know if like a
24:15
DraftKings or an ESPN bet or one of
24:18
those apps would dive into CrossFit.
24:22
And I think fantasy sports is another
24:24
thing that gives vested interest.
24:27
We play fantasy sports with this stuff.
24:29
We play the Heat One app.
24:31
But there's no money at the end of
24:34
this generally or no leagues where the
24:38
winner wins a prize because we don't have
24:42
that legalized in a lot of different
24:44
areas.
24:46
But it is legalized for like the NFL,
24:48
NBA, NHL.
24:50
Major League Baseball,
24:52
if we could get that to move toward
24:56
CrossFit,
24:58
it would give something for people to bet
25:00
on.
25:01
And I think that it would increase the
25:03
viewership by far.
25:07
And like was shown in the NBA case,
25:10
you take away the corruption because they
25:13
can detect when there is a spike in
25:17
their algorithm to determine if
25:20
People are trying to cheat and skirt the
25:25
system.
25:26
So I really do believe that gambling is
25:34
a way that would grow the sport.
25:36
It's thinking outside the box.
25:38
It's not talked about a lot in the
25:43
space.
25:44
But I do believe that it is a
25:46
way that you could grow the sport pretty
25:48
quickly.
25:58
Clock,
25:59
has Tyler been seen with any Italians
26:00
recently?
26:02
I don't know, but he should be.
26:05
I think that's the way to go.
26:11
Did I hear that Tyler moved to PA?
26:13
Lots of Italians in PA.
26:15
There are.
26:15
That's where I'm from.
26:17
He's living in State College, I believe.
26:25
What else is up here?
26:32
Gambling in the NBA.
26:33
I hope they address it on the FanDuel
26:35
pregame show brought to you by Bet.
26:37
Right before the game at DraftKings Arena.
26:42
Yeah.
26:45
That just shows you, though, Corey,
26:47
how much money has been brought into the
26:50
sport because of legalized gambling.
26:55
And because of that,
26:56
these apps and these companies are pouring
27:01
over money to these events and these
27:05
arenas and these networks to get their
27:07
name out there because it is a highly
27:09
competitive business.
27:11
And it's going to be very,
27:17
very interesting if it could be pulled
27:21
off.
27:30
So I saw that Lito was saying,
27:32
I think it's Lito,
27:35
Pedro has Luka Djokic on next week.
27:38
I did see that today when I was
27:41
surfing through the YouTubes.
27:45
Hopefully it's a good interview.
27:47
If anybody can pull that interview off,
27:48
I think it's going to be Peter.
27:50
And he always asks the tough questions.
27:56
So we'll see.
27:57
We'll see.
28:03
Corey Leonard, oh, absolutely,
28:06
I don't gamble,
28:07
but I'm in favor of people betting on
28:09
whatever the hell they want to.
28:11
Yeah, I really am bad at it.
28:13
So I put in twenty five dollars at
28:18
the beginning of every NFL season.
28:20
I sprinkle some bets throughout the year
28:23
and I generally lose every one of them.
28:28
I think I know the sport,
28:29
but apparently I don't.
28:31
Or it's just how wild and freaky it
28:33
gets.
28:42
I think this is a great point, Frida.
28:47
I was watching a show last night where
28:49
they were talking about how many athletes
28:52
get DM'd because a person lost a bet.
28:56
Like if CrossFit athletes think the stuff
28:59
we say is damning and damaging to them,
29:03
good God, if we added,
29:06
if we added betting to this,
29:08
the amount of people that lose and would
29:10
DM these athletes, holy crap,
29:13
they wouldn't be able to handle that at
29:14
all.
29:23
Um,
29:26
But yeah, I mean,
29:26
that's just the way the world is these
29:28
days.
29:29
Fantasy sports,
29:30
people get upset that they started the guy
29:33
and they didn't do very well.
29:37
And they DM that athlete.
29:39
I think as a professional athlete,
29:40
you almost have to shut yourself off to
29:44
social media and all of the feedback.
29:48
Or just take it all with a grain
29:49
of salt.
29:56
So, Jody, so many pods, so little time.
30:04
I live in the Savon, Hiller,
30:06
Clydesdale bubble.
30:08
It's a beautiful bubble.
30:10
We're glad you're here.
30:18
What is up, Judy Reed?
30:22
So yeah,
30:23
I think if you want to grow the
30:25
sport fast,
30:26
that is the way to do it.
30:30
It's weird because CrossFit doesn't want
30:33
to partner with anybody that would be
30:36
against the methodology of CrossFit,
30:39
which I completely understand.
30:41
And I hope that doesn't leak over to
30:43
something like gambling and the perception
30:46
that people have had about it in the
30:48
past.
30:51
It is legalized now.
30:53
It's out there for everyone.
30:55
It's in most of the states.
30:58
And why not move to a place where
31:00
people could bet on it and bring more
31:04
eyes to it?
31:07
I think prop bets would be cool.
31:08
Like someone's going for three hundred
31:10
pounds on a clean.
31:12
Will they hit it?
31:14
And you can hit a prop bet.
31:15
Yay or nay.
31:17
It's all there.
31:19
I mean,
31:20
they do live betting on plays in football,
31:23
on at-bats in baseball.
31:26
Can you imagine, like,
31:28
will this person do this?
31:35
Vindicate.
31:35
Gambling, grow the sport, yes.
31:37
Corrupt the sport, also yes.
31:43
I think what's happened in the last day
31:46
and a half is,
31:47
has shown that because of the legalized
31:50
gambling and because the the legal betting
31:54
places don't want to lose money they are
31:57
quick to find the cheaters and and i
32:01
think it's actually making it harder to
32:04
make it corrupt than when it was
32:07
unregulated and if you look at the if
32:12
you take a minute at all to look
32:14
at the fbi documents
32:16
from the arrests yesterday,
32:19
they knew the day everything happened that
32:23
it was a corrupt bet because of all
32:27
of the data they had in those legalized,
32:32
regulated betting systems.
32:38
So while there's corruption in everything,
32:44
I think that because it is regulated and
32:46
because it is,
32:49
and both CrossFit and the betting houses
32:54
would have the same vested interest.
32:56
They would want to make it fair betting
33:00
so that people wouldn't take money from
33:02
them.
33:03
And CrossFit would want to have a fair
33:06
and equal opportunity in their event.
33:16
Sean in Oregon, when money is involved,
33:18
all kinds of shenanigans will happen from
33:20
corrupt gambling to PEDs,
33:22
whatever it takes to get the dollar dollar
33:25
bills.
33:27
You're right.
33:27
I mean, again, there's corruption.
33:29
There's PEDs now,
33:31
and there's hardly a cent in the sport,
33:34
right?
33:34
Unless you win,
33:35
there's hardly anything you can win.
33:38
And to risk your reputation on PEDs for
33:41
the little money that's there,
33:42
yet people are doing it all the time.
33:49
Yeah.
33:54
Agreed.
33:55
Money makes people crazy.
33:56
They do.
33:57
It does.
34:00
It really does.
34:02
But I think we already have some crazy
34:04
people out there.
34:06
Why not find something that can infuse
34:10
cash back into this sport?
34:13
And then maybe, maybe, just maybe,
34:17
so much money that the methodology and the
34:21
training and the education can take some
34:24
of that money from that to further what
34:27
they're doing, as opposed to the opposite.
34:37
Corey Lunder, within a week,
34:38
we've had a major jewel heist.
34:40
A mafia involved poker ring and sports
34:43
gambling corruption.
34:44
We're living in the nineteen twenties.
34:48
But you know what we learned from the
34:50
nineteen twenties?
34:52
Prohibition doesn't work.
34:55
Prohibiting it or trying to eliminate it
34:57
doesn't work either.
35:00
So the best thing you can do is
35:01
regulate it and have data to show when
35:04
things are becoming corrupt.
35:07
Immediately.
35:14
Just saying.
35:18
I mean,
35:18
how scary if you're an NBA player and
35:20
you now know that DraftKings and BetTree,
35:24
six,
35:24
five and ESPN can know immediately if you
35:28
have tilted the scales on the day you
35:33
do it.
35:34
How likely are you now to risk your
35:37
career and your millions of dollars to try
35:42
to do that?
35:44
I'm hoping that these FBI arrests are
35:47
actually a deterrent for that,
35:49
as opposed to the thought that this is
35:53
going to continue and grow.
35:58
So...
36:09
We've been in a decade-long era of
36:11
repression.
36:12
It might be fading away right now.
36:14
I'm predicting libertine period coming up
36:18
like the roaring twenties or even the
36:20
nineties.
36:23
Okay.
36:35
Joseph Ramirez, NFL,
36:37
NHL and MLB are probably puckered up right
36:39
now, too.
36:40
Well,
36:40
if you remember just a couple of years
36:41
ago,
36:43
there were like probably five to ten NFL
36:46
players that were suspended for the season
36:49
because they bet.
36:51
And then we've seen none of that for
36:54
a couple of years.
36:56
So I think like we as Americans quickly
37:00
forget what has happened and kind of
37:03
forgive and move on.
37:05
But there were NFL players, Calvin Ridley,
37:10
he missed the entire season for betting.
37:12
There was a couple of Indianapolis Colts,
37:15
a couple of Detroit Lions that were
37:18
suspended for an entire season for
37:20
betting.
37:22
And not necessarily betting on football,
37:24
but betting on the grounds of the team
37:27
facility, which they do not allow.
37:33
So,
37:34
I think they all have learned their lesson
37:36
that there's too many data points on these
37:41
apps now,
37:42
and they are going to get caught.
37:53
The same issues exist here in Europe as
37:54
well, both players and referees.
37:57
Yeah, we had the Tim Donegan thing,
38:00
the referee in the NBA that fixed games
38:03
and
38:04
ended up in prison.
38:06
So, yeah.
38:10
But that was bigger when gambling wasn't
38:14
regulated,
38:15
and it was offshore betting or
38:18
under-the-table betting.
38:26
How heavy will Otani be watched after what
38:28
happened with him?
38:30
My understanding is they did a deep
38:32
investigation, a deep dive, Joseph,
38:34
and found out that he had nothing to
38:35
do with any of that,
38:37
that it was his interpreter, manager,
38:40
whatever it was,
38:41
that just flat out stole his money and
38:45
bet with it.
38:51
So with that, guys, don't forget Monday.
38:56
I did see Lito say let's do a
38:58
one o'clock show.
39:00
But if you leave comments on YouTube,
39:03
let's see.
39:05
And maybe I'll do a one o'clock show
39:09
on Monday instead of the noon.
39:12
And then don't forget next Wednesday at
39:14
noon lunch, Caroline Klutz,
39:19
the woman who
39:21
Kicked ass at crash from the Masters
39:24
Division.
39:25
Would have finished second in the Elite.
39:27
We're going to get her perspective live on
39:29
the show next Wednesday.
39:34
And then we're going to bump Corey to
39:35
either Tuesday or Thursday.
39:39
So, Corey says, dude,
39:44
just come on whenever you can.
39:45
No worries.
39:47
Yeah, I've learned if I stay consistent,
39:50
We're much better off.
39:52
But I have no control over this meeting.
39:54
And it was actually,
39:56
they tried to hold it yesterday.
39:58
Key player didn't show up.
40:00
And so they rescheduled it for Monday at
40:02
noon.
40:04
Right over my block time on the calendar.
40:09
So with that,
40:12
I will be here Sunday night with Carolyn
40:15
and Jamie.
40:16
And then back Monday at one p.m.
40:18
it looks like.
40:20
For lunch with the Clydesdale.
40:21
And then don't forget Wednesday,
40:26
Caroline Klutz.
40:27
Yes.
40:29
Looks like you are this close to three
40:31
K subscribers.
40:33
You know, it's wild.
40:33
Yesterday I was twenty away.
40:36
Throughout the day,
40:37
I dropped two subscribers.
40:38
I went to twenty two away and now
40:41
I'm back to twenty away.
40:42
So we're twenty subscribers away from
40:45
three K.
40:47
Hoping to get to three K by the
40:49
end of the year.
40:51
Tell your friends, like, subscribe,
40:53
do all those things.
40:55
It really,
40:55
truly helps out in the algorithm.
40:57
With that, guys,
40:59
time for you to get back to work.
41:01
I'm going to head back to work and
41:02
we'll see everybody next time on Lunch
41:05
with the Clydesdale.
