- 1:07Back to the Money. New episodes every Thursday and NCAA basketball is officially over.
- 1:18We're in the, I don't know if I'd say dark times because there is football on and Chris is having
- 1:24a blast doing that. I know. And people like golf and the Masters and things, but it feels like the
- 1:31officially like the off season to the, you know, to the college basketball and the NFL. It feels
- 1:41like the off season for, I don't know, regular people, but. But like big, the big events are like
- 1:49over. Yeah. After the Masters. Yeah, after the Masters. It's like the big events are over.
- 1:57It's pretty much just baseball until September. Well, you got June. June's a pretty big month for
- 2:07NBA and NHL. Oh, yeah, again, yeah. But. I just bet on the NBA or NHL, so that's my
- 2:18personal stupidity show. That's all I've been betting on these past two days. It's the NBA and
- 2:24the NHL. I dabble, but it's not my like every day. Yeah, well, I continue to be the coldest
- 2:31baseball gambler on the planet. So I'm just staying away for the foreseeable future.
- 2:40It's not a bad, not a bad play. I mean, the season just started. So gotta have a,
- 2:44gotta build up those stats to go off of. But yes.
- 2:54How, how, how are we doing since last week? Grace, I'm gonna start with you.
- 3:01Doing pretty good. Doing all right in baseball. Of course, if you follow us on Twitter, you saw
- 3:07a double unit, double unit play on a new con hit in the NETI. That was fun. It's also just, this is
- 3:14my personal bias. It's always fun to watch Purdue just get smacked around. I had a very fun evening
- 3:23watching that. And then yeah, baseball's been all right. We're doing okay. We're doing all right.
- 3:28We're hanging in there. Oh, yes. Sean, how's it, how's it hanging?
- 3:33Well, I am undefeated on days where an eclipse occurs. So 2020, 2024 or 2044, book it, tail all my bets.
- 3:51Is that dating back to what, when was the last one?
- 3:562016, before I could gamble and also before legalized gambling was available. Yeah.
- 4:05Before I could gamble before it was legal. All these are just nuanced. Like, what do we talk?
- 4:13Well, we bet, we bet responsibly, Chris. Now.
- 4:16Now. But yeah, undefeated on days where an eclipse occurs. And I also did pretty well yesterday.
- 4:31Trend center had like a NBA over trend that was active on three games, took all three,
- 4:39parlayed all three, that hit. That was awesome. I think I did get one of the lines like slightly
- 4:48lower and it just barely went over. It was the, it was the Pistons 76ers game. But shout out trend
- 4:56center because it helped me a lot yesterday. I since last week, I'm up almost four units.
- 5:05Just kind of been feeling out baseball, using some trends and
- 5:12you know, betting on Yukon, I think, I think I had an MGM profit boost. So I just used that on
- 5:19Yukon felt like free money. So
- 5:27Yukon's been free money the last two years in the tournament.
- 5:30Yeah. So I did, I did bet on NC state to cover against, against Purdue that did not work.
- 5:42Me too. It was, it did kind of feel like that sort of moment where, oh, yes, they're in 11th
- 5:50seed. This is why they can't, they can't win against one seeds. So that was kind of the moment
- 6:03where, you know, we're back to reality. It's here. It's 1v1, one seed versus one seed,
- 6:11which is kind of like, these are the two best teams, which you can't really say that every year.
- 6:20You can't say that happens every year. So overall, the tournament was fine. Some cool shit happened.
- 6:30But the things that sort of we predicted that would happen happened, I guess it's set.
- 6:42Man, my brain is all over the place right now. There weren't a lot of upsets like there were
- 6:49last year where there was just an upset fest where FDU made the run. What was it?
- 6:57FAU went to the final four and the FAU San Diego state was the final four matchup. See, yeah, and I get it, there weren't as many upsets.
- 7:09But I feel like the same people who are complaining that there weren't as many upsets this year are the same people who were complaining that there were too many upsets last year.
- 7:20We gotta come on. It's not going to be perfect every year. I'm sick of the people. Whenever the tournament is not just balls to the wall entertainment for a month straight, or just like, it was mid.
- 7:31It's like, no, shut up. You just don't care about college basketball. Because this tournament, from a casual standpoint, yes, I get what I get.
- 7:39But we did get some great game. I mean, you con Purdue. I mean, it was the two best teams all season. You could argue Houston. But I would say Purdue would be Houston.
- 7:51Head to head. I would say that I don't like to say that, but I would. And we got the Cinderella run.
- 7:58And I think it's a good thing that we got the two best teams all season.
- 8:03I would say that I don't like to say that, but I would. And we got the Cinderella run in NC State, Clemson made a fun run, Oakland big upset.
- 8:14We had like some good moments throughout, but the teams were supposed to win one. And like we got the games we wanted.
- 8:21So I'm tired of people saying every year if the tournament isn't just perfect, that it's average and pisses me off.
- 8:32So that's my soapbox.
- 8:34When I say like the tournament was okay, like, sure, it was okay, but also it's the tournament, which means that it's awesome.
- 8:46Yes, it's always going to be awesome. It's college basketball, especially the first two weekends, the first weekend, but really the first two are always incredibly entertaining.
- 8:59So shut up with that. It was average. It wasn't. It was it's always awesome. It's just not as spectacular as some years.
- 9:08It's kind of like, I have to have some perspective, you know, is like, is this an F on the awesome scale? Well, you can't give it an F because it's awesome.
- 9:24But and also like, what do people want for it to be like a perfect term because when Cinderella's go too far, then it's like, okay, well, no one wants to see St. Peter's in the elite eight when they got beat by 30 against UNC.
- 9:39But it's like, okay, well, we had Oakland was probably the biggest upset in the first round and they lose to NC State in the second round.
- 9:48People aren't happy with that. So what do you want? Like, I just like what what is the perfect tournament quote unquote?
- 9:57Like, I'm I'm tired of people shitting on the tournament, especially when it is my favorite time of the year.
- 10:03Yes, I think the tournament is fine just as it unfolds. It is madness. It is what it is. You can't do anything about it. You can't change it.
- 10:14So just fucking deal with it and stop complaining all the time. Like, yeah, you're always mad.
- 10:25But yeah, tournaments over. You know what? Some people call it mid. I had a great time.
- 10:32And you know what? I'll always have a great time because it's madness, madness. Okay, so the tournament's over, which means we're at the time of the year where it's NFL
- 10:44draft season and also the master season. Now, I'm just going to get into the masters really fast and just say I'm not even going to pretend like I know what I'm talking about when it comes to golf.
- 10:56Chris knows what I'm talking about. He's been golfing with me. I have no clue what I'm doing. I just hit the ball.
- 11:05Well, playing golf and watching for two very different things.
- 11:08Some would say. But MGM gave me a free bet. $3.5. I put it on Tiger to make the top 20 plus 350. Lock it in, I guess.
- 11:22Not very confident. Hope and pray. You locked it in, but now you're like hope and pray. Let's lock it in, I guess. Is the terminology? No.
- 11:39I did bet on Tiger to make the cut, which he is the most popular player to make the cut. But I just had to throw something on the masters just to show that I acknowledge that it is happening.
- 11:54Just to feel it?
- 11:55Just to kind of feel it, yeah.
- 11:58Just to be a part of it?
- 12:00Just to feel something.
- 12:01Now that the tournament is over.
- 12:04Chris, I know you were talking about golf in the group chat. I did not follow it at all, but feel free to chime in.
- 12:14Yeah. I'm taking. There's a DK boost with Scotty Scheffler, Hideki Matsuyama, and John Rom to make the cut. Just to make the cut. Just to make it to the weekend.
- 12:31Plus 100. That is Scotty Scheffler, number one golf in the world. John Rom, last year's Masters winner, and Hideki Matsuyama. Very good golf. I do not know exactly. I am a very much casual golf fan in terms of watching.
- 12:47So I don't know where exactly in the world he ranks, but he is very good. So just all three of them make the cut at even odds. I think that's.
- 12:57I don't want to say free money because it's a trap because it's a boost, but it feels, it felt too good to pass it. So I took that plus 100. I don't hate.
- 13:11I mean, my heart doesn't hate Tiger top 20 just because I know he's not a good guy. I know he's not. I still like him. I still like Tiger.
- 13:23I know he's just probably in his past. He may have atoned for his sense, but Sleaze ball. But I still like him. Great golfer. He just always gets hurt.
- 13:39I feel like every time he's in a major tournament, he withdraws like, oh, it's my back. Oh, it's money, which I get. He's had serious injuries. I get it. But like sucked. He's in me. Like if you're hurt, retire.
- 13:52This year, it might be his balls.
- 13:57Yeah, they're all full. Yeah. Oh, I was wondering what you were talking about. Yeah, you might have to leave her for heavy balls syndrome.
- 14:09Which I'm recovering a recovering sex addict like very brave of you to abstain from from sex to prepare for the master's tournament very brave. You're just you give inspiration.
- 14:27Every way. I think it's mistake. You got to be sure. I'm not saying he has to go out. I'm not saying he has to go out and fuck who's going to choose every night. But when he was on top of the world, that he was slinging.
- 14:42Yeah. So I'm again, I'm not saying go get some strange in a parking lot every night. But like, you got to you got to you got to have a release.
- 14:56Yeah.
- 14:58I'm the numbers don't like there is a high charge somewhere where like, it overlaps tiger not good at golf tiger not having sex. There's no overlap.
- 15:13Yeah, he's too heavy. I'm just saying.
- 15:17Hall of Fame Dong slinger.
- 15:25Yeah. Yeah.
- 15:28That's all I really know about the mat about the masters.
- 15:33I will say, like every tick tock I see about like the masters and like the people there it's like this has a maculate vibes.
- 15:45Like the vibe surrounding the masters is just like, oh, this is like, this is like peak dudes rock, but less like a like the the other side of the dudes rock coin where it's, it's the dudes rock that are violent.
- 16:02But then the other side is like, this is the masters. We respect each other.
- 16:07Well, yeah, as as golf tournaments go, what one of the sides you're describing is the waste management. Yes, invitational. Yes. And the other side is the masters. Yes.
- 16:21I get what you're saying. Like, oh, did y'all see the I'm sure they do it every year but did y'all see like the prices for like the food.
- 16:34Yeah, yeah, it's like, it's so cheap. I thought I thought that shit would be like a million dollars.
- 16:42I mean, it literally costs like your second born trial to get into the damn thing.
- 16:47I'm sure but like still, you know, is charged four bucks for a minute cheese sandwich.
- 16:55Fair enough, but I don't know all the all these wealthy people walking around I I assume that they hike the prices up a little bit, not where some common street folk could just come and buy a breakfast sandwich for $2.
- 17:12Common street folk ain't getting anywhere near.
- 17:16Snipers all around that place like you look like your middle class I'm gonna shoot you in the head.
- 17:24Looking out for polos who's not wearing a polo.
- 17:29It's tradition man, just $2 for a minute cheese or however I didn't see the graphic this year but I've seen it before and it's looks awesome.
- 17:42Looks like a good time. Yeah.
- 17:45I was just dumbfounded by the price just all these wealthy people walking around is like they're still only charging $2 for sandwiches and stuff. That's crazy.
- 17:55It's a it's it's one of the top things and in events like I can't think of any others but aren't the aren't the concessions and like the Atlanta stadium like super low to.
- 18:12Yeah, yeah, that's like their whole point. Yeah.
- 18:16I don't know if it's like a overlap for like the reason of that.
- 18:21But yeah, the Falcon Stadium the other dirt sheep. Oh yeah, you can get like a tall boy because I did this at Metallica.
- 18:29When I saw them, it was like, then you get like a 24 ounce for like $7 which like anywhere else like if you go to the if you go to Nissan Stadium for the Titans it's like 1213 or maybe even higher.
- 18:44Yeah, roughly that.
- 18:48Yeah, that's awesome.
- 18:51Okay, I mean, so next topic I mean the draft we we've kind of already discussed it but I would be pretty surprised that if we didn't take a tackle. I don't know.
- 19:04I have really nothing else to add.
- 19:07It's I think the draft is in two weeks.
- 19:10It's not next week but it's really no new information.
- 19:15I mean, yeah, we're kind of in the wait and see where two weeks before isn't on the 24th.
- 19:22I believe so.
- 19:24Maybe.
- 19:26Two weeks to the day.
- 19:28Yeah, we're kind of in the wait and see like a week before five days before there'll be a bunch of shit hit in the fan.
- 19:35So, yeah, right now we're just waiting. We're waiting on the shit.
- 19:40Yeah, lots of mock drafts coming out.
- 19:44I gotta be honest, you know, one thing I really, really hate about mock drafts is when they try to mock up trades.
- 19:56Like, that's just adds so many more variables to this fake thing that you created.
- 20:05I don't know. That's just exactly. It's just it makes it to keep up with.
- 20:11And when like Mel Kuiper and like when Mel Kuiper and like the experts to do it, I guess I get it.
- 20:20It's like you kind of have to like they do like 20 of these things.
- 20:24So you gotta throw in some trades.
- 20:26But like when I see like just people on Twitter, like, oh yeah, the dolphins will trade up for this is like, you know, you know what you're talking about.
- 20:35Shut up what the dolphins are going to trade their third round pick in 2026.
- 20:41You have no idea what these guys are going to do.
- 20:44So unless you're Mel Kuiper Jr. or Tommy Miche, shut the hell up on it.
- 20:49And even then I don't love hearing them spouting off like this is my 15th mock draft and this is what I have.
- 20:55I don't need to let me know what you got the day before the draft and then I'll go off that.
- 21:02This is a season though. This is this is his Super Bowl.
- 21:08So everybody's got a thing.
- 21:11Gotta give it to him.
- 21:13Everybody pays attention.
- 21:15I guess more power to him.
- 21:20I'm not the biggest Mel Kuiper fan.
- 21:24I mean, I'm not sure anyone is.
- 21:27I don't know most people.
- 21:29I'm just like, are we really listening to this guy like every year?
- 21:34Like how many how many.
- 21:38He knows more than like Stephen A. So he knows more than most people, but he still doesn't really know.
- 21:49In the grand scheme of the entire draft is not no much.
- 21:54I think like I looked this up like last week because I was curious just like how many like hits as like Mel Kuiper like accurately predicted.
- 22:04And it's like to every year, maybe, and it's like the first round. It's like the first pick overall and like everything is like a miss up until like, maybe there's like, well, I know for one,
- 22:19he drafted Taylor Lawan. He had Taylor Lawan going to the Titans, which was a fucking duh. Like we needed an alignment like.
- 22:30That's like saying, yeah, I'm going to go out and limits other times going to take Joe all it's like, yeah, like we need an alignment more than anything.
- 22:40But again, it's just, they do, I felt like they do 20 of these things a year, like all these draft experts.
- 22:48So it's like, yeah, you can say like, well, I got like X amount, right? It's like, oh, is that in every single one?
- 22:54Because that doesn't count. You don't get to do that. I could do that.
- 23:01I can make 30 mock drafts. Like, yeah, I got 25% of everything, right?
- 23:06Yeah.
- 23:08That's like, and I'm looking at something now and his highest ever score, he got seven out of 32 correct, which that's not bad.
- 23:19I'll give you that's not okay. That's not bad.
- 23:22But does he submit like, does, oh, definitely, but does he submit like one, like this is my official draft.
- 23:30I think like the day before or like a couple of days before the draft, he's like, this is it. This is the one.
- 23:38Okay, well then, I mean, yes, seven out of whatever that's not great, but I love better than I could do.
- 23:45I know it's a hell of a better than the CNA can do. So I don't know.
- 23:51It is it is very entertaining to watch the like, there's a compilation on YouTube of Mel Kuiper is just just huge misses huge.
- 24:07He was like, Johnny Manziel is going to go first overall. And he's going to be the greatest quarterback to ever live.
- 24:16Hmm. Interesting how that worked out. I think he said that Julio Jones couldn't catch.
- 24:22Like he has he has just had some huge swings and misses like he must have been talking about Titans.
- 24:30I think he was also not super thrilled about Richard Sherman either.
- 24:38Like he was like this dude can't play ball like that makes sense.
- 24:43I mean, switch positions in college like that's tough.
- 24:47But guys, one thing I guess is kind of defending him. Do you remember what skit Bayless said about Manziel coming out becoming out of the draft?
- 24:59I do not.
- 25:00He said Johnny Manziel would be a bigger star in Cleveland than LeBron James.
- 25:04I remember that. Yeah, that's that's the man's L one. That one is like, damn.
- 25:15Which I guess if you want to go out on it like say he's saying that man's L be the biggest Cleveland like super Cleveland Cleveland sports superstar ever.
- 25:27I mean, he's got I know he didn't do anything but like from an outsider's perspective, he's got to be top 10.
- 25:39Just like what's his competition LeBron and some cash from like the 70s.
- 25:49I mean, yeah, I mean, LeBron LeBron is by far still the biggest star in Cleveland, even four years after he's left.
- 26:00He's the biggest star and also arguably the most hated of all time.
- 26:05Yeah.
- 26:06So what do we like Jim Brown and like.
- 26:11Yeah, I mean, you could definitely say like most memorable athlete for Cleveland professional sports team.
- 26:20I'm just famous just most famous not best because you can get like, well, this guy for the Indians hit 370 and whatever years like I don't get about that.
- 26:30I'm talking most famous.
- 26:32Minzell's top 10.
- 26:33He's he's top 10.
- 26:35Arguably top five.
- 26:39There's an argument. See, I don't is he above or below Baker.
- 26:45He's got to be below.
- 26:46Right.
- 26:47They wrote Baker out of town on like unfairly.
- 26:50They hated Baker at the end.
- 26:52You hated man's healthy and soon.
- 26:56But Baker actually did this.
- 26:59Baker is the best Browns quarterback.
- 27:03Baker got them to the playoffs.
- 27:05Baker, Mefield, Joe Flacco are the best Browns quarterbacks.
- 27:11Accurate since Bernie Kosar.
- 27:17And they like they hated Baker.
- 27:20And I guess I mean they love Flacco, but he's 75,000 years old.
- 27:29Cleveland sports fans suck.
- 27:34They love to play the big they just love to play the victim.
- 27:38Oh, yeah.
- 27:39And great that they're good at it.
- 27:41But they have a right to be the victim.
- 27:45They do.
- 27:46They do have the right.
- 27:48It's tough to argue.
- 27:50I mean, the cabs were bad.
- 27:54Yeah, but they're just assholes.
- 27:57Yeah.
- 27:58I don't know what the LeBron hate level is like there.
- 28:04He came back.
- 28:06Got him.
- 28:07Like got him some.
- 28:09He went to Cleveland.
- 28:11I believe it was to.
- 28:13So like is like everything's forgiven now.
- 28:17So I think after he left the first time, it was like this guy stinks.
- 28:22We hate him.
- 28:23And then he came back one, two.
- 28:25And then they were like, we love him.
- 28:27And then he left.
- 28:28And then I think the general consensus was that's fair.
- 28:34Yeah, like, I that's fair.
- 28:37I don't remember.
- 28:38We don't blame you for leaving.
- 28:40I think that's the general consensus.
- 28:43I mean,
- 28:46if it were me, I'd be like, I'll take two.
- 28:49You can go.
- 28:50Yeah.
- 28:51Bye.
- 28:52If you if you want to go like if you want to stay great, but also if
- 28:55you want to go, it's like, thanks.
- 28:57That's just funny.
- 28:58It's like, yeah, thank you for the rings.
- 29:00We don't blame you for wanting to get the hell out of here.
- 29:02Yeah.
- 29:03I mean, it's Cleveland.
- 29:04Like we'd leave too.
- 29:05If we could.
- 29:09We're stuck here.
- 29:10If we weren't tight rooted down in this God awful city, we'd leave too.
- 29:16Yeah.
- 29:18Yeah.
- 29:25I think it was after the final four game there, she was like, yeah,
- 29:30I love Cleveland.
- 29:31And everyone was like, Oh, she said she loves it here.
- 29:36Hey, you guys.
- 29:37It's so so bad.
- 29:48Housing prices.
- 29:49Housing prices definitely stopped.
- 29:51Definitely rose after that statement.
- 29:55Headline.
- 29:56Caitlin Clark.
- 29:57Cleveland's not that bad.
- 29:59I just imagine like,
- 30:01I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,
- 30:05I'm like, I just imagine like front page of the Cleveland Tribune
- 30:10or some made up newspaper.
- 30:13It's like Caitlin Clark parentheses.
- 30:15Not that bad.
- 30:22I didn't mean for this to turn into the shit on the city of Cleveland
- 30:25segment, but.
- 30:28Here we are.
- 30:29That's okay.
- 30:30Yeah, they know I definitely.
- 30:33We have tons of fans in Cleveland.
- 30:36Oh, yeah.
- 30:37And we love them.
- 30:39Yeah.
- 30:42All our Clevelandites out there, shout out.
- 30:46Okay, so while we are sort of on the topic of of Caitlin Clark.
- 30:53Sort of kind of.
- 30:55We got there.
- 30:57Iowa did lose in the in the finale of the women's women's NCAA tournament.
- 31:06So, but I know that Sean has the numbers for the viewership, which is definitely worth mentioning.
- 31:15Because Caitlin Clark is electric as we discussed last week with her $5 million offer from ice cube.
- 31:24Right.
- 31:26So, for the first time ever, the women's basketball championship drew in more viewers than the men's national championship.
- 31:37The women's national championship grossed 18.7 million viewers while the men's grossed 14.8 million.
- 31:47Maybe if you want your ratings to be better, don't schedule it for a Monday night at 9 30 Eastern time.
- 32:00Yes.
- 32:02Yeah, I was going to say that and like, you're wrong.
- 32:06Love women, big fan of them.
- 32:09Yeah.
- 32:10Yeah, that wasn't sarcastic.
- 32:12I promise.
- 32:17Just kidding.
- 32:18All jokes aside. Yeah, one of those was played on ESPN on Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
- 32:26The other one was played on TBS.
- 32:30TBS at 9 30 Eastern on a Monday.
- 32:35So, I'm, I mean that.
- 32:39Who knows who would win the rings were and ratings don't really mean anything.
- 32:44But that's still impressive that the women got that many viewers.
- 32:49That's awesome.
- 32:50Yeah, I'm not, we're not putting it putting this down at all. It's just, it's more of a gripe for me that the college national championship for football and in CAA like basketball are on Monday nights.
- 33:06Bro, I've got work tomorrow.
- 33:09I can't watch a four hour game.
- 33:13And like, it starts at 8 30 central time like, I'm almost 30, like, I gotta get to sleep.
- 33:22Yeah, I don't mind. I've kind of just gotten used to the day, whatever the time though, I know it's been like with football and basketball pretty much been the same time forever.
- 33:33I still hate it.
- 33:36So there is no reason for these games to be starting at eight.
- 33:41We're lucky.
- 33:42Honestly, 8 30 central like, that's a reasonable ish hour.
- 33:48Yeah, it is reasonable.
- 33:50But it still ends at like 10 30, like the game itself and then you have all the post game pageantry and like, like, I like to watch. I know it's overrated, but I like to watch one shining moment.
- 34:05I like to watch the compilation of all the cool moments we saw. I think it's awesome.
- 34:10But I was up to like 11 o'clock. It's like, bro, it's Monday night.
- 34:15Exactly. That's, that's really the point I'm trying to make is
- 34:19we need to do eastern time.
- 34:21We need to do something about this. We as a people need to unite and say no, no to this. No more of this.
- 34:31Like, and honestly, maybe the women have it down Sunday afternoon.
- 34:38I mean, I'm not really time for Sunday at like three o'clock.
- 34:43Yeah, I'm not doing anything.
- 34:46It's like, that's why I flipped it on, you know, like,
- 34:52like, that's not a bad idea.
- 34:54Like Monday night, whatever, do it fine.
- 34:57Start it like 730 East or central.
- 35:04I feel like that's fair.
- 35:06Yeah, I feel like all the people that live on eastern are are used to things starting at like eight.
- 35:13At this point, if they've obviously have been there for long enough, but I feel like if you if you move to the eastern time from many other time zone, you have to come to grips with sports are going to be later.
- 35:28Time does money at football start 730 715 ish.
- 35:33Yeah, it's central.
- 35:34What is that time?
- 35:36Yes, put it at that time.
- 35:39Yeah, like what you like you think you're too good to start at the same time as Monday night football.
- 35:45Get everyone watching.
- 35:46Okay, for some natural championship.
- 35:48Like started at a reasonable.
- 35:51Yeah, everyone watches money that football.
- 35:54Come on.
- 35:55And I know we sound like a bunch of grumpy old men men here.
- 35:58I tweeted this out.
- 36:00I've gone to the age.
- 36:01I don't like seeing the final four in football.
- 36:04I hate it.
- 36:07Do you want to see the one the final four is played in a football stadium.
- 36:11I hate it.
- 36:12Oh, it's done.
- 36:13I mean, they've done it forever.
- 36:15I'm not acting like this is anything new.
- 36:18I hate it.
- 36:21Yeah, I mean, I get why they do it.
- 36:24So an asterisk of tickets.
- 36:27But why would you want to like I see like the people like that was a big meme this year.
- 36:32I was like, Oh, that's a foul or F and he's like a billion feet away from the court and they're not even like terrible.
- 36:39Like for a football game, they'd be pretty good seats and you can't see shit.
- 36:44So I, unless I had some like rich uncle who got me court side seats, that would be like her very low level seats.
- 36:56That'd be the only reason I would ever go to a football or a bait basketball game there we go in a football state.
- 37:02All right.
- 37:03Well, let me let me ask you this then championship game, the new Nissan Stadium 2027 Tennessee versus whoever final.
- 37:18See, you're not going you're not going just for the experience.
- 37:22I also said this on Twitter when the ball is involved, logic can go.
- 37:30Well, that's how all these other things feel.
- 37:32But I feel like that's I would not spend a billion dollars or whatever to sit up in like the four hundreds or whatever would be at that point, like the very top level.
- 37:45I would not like you can't see it at that point.
- 37:48Yeah, like what's the point?
- 37:50It's like, oh yeah, I was there. It's like, cool.
- 37:54You didn't get really like yet you were technically like you didn't get to see anything.
- 37:59I feel like when you're that far up like yeah, you're you're part of the environment but like I don't know is for basketball feels like you're not really part of like the electric act.
- 38:12Like it's part of like a lot of these college basketball arenas are very small. They're right on top of each other. That's kind of what makes it awesome.
- 38:20And now you're playing a basketball game in an NFL stadium.
- 38:26Yes, I get again, I get why they do it and they sell out so they're obviously never going to change it.
- 38:34But I hate it.
- 38:36Yeah. I mean, I get it, you know, sell a ton of tickets, make a buckload of money.
- 38:43But also like, they're like some of these college basketball games that look like they're played in like a high school gym.
- 38:51Wouldn't it be awesome if like the national championship game was in like a high school gym?
- 38:57Kind of. It'd be it'd be cool one time.
- 39:01It'd be it'd be cool. I get why they would never do that.
- 39:06Just play it and like an NBA or even.
- 39:10Yeah, like, I just like you can still honestly make the same amount of money. Like you won't sell as much tickets, but you can still charge like a shit ton.
- 39:21And people would pay them because it's the national championship.
- 39:25So I just that is my I I've always known that like I've known that the seats are terrible. I've known you can't see shit.
- 39:36It just never really bothered me until this year. And I was like, man, I guess I'm getting old.
- 39:42I'm getting mad at something that has nothing to do with me and likely never will.
- 39:51Never say never.
- 39:56Okay, moving on.
- 40:00I know that Sean had something that he wanted to had a debate topic for us.
- 40:08If you have that ready for for us, Sean, something about jerseys.
- 40:13Me again.
- 40:14Yeah.
- 40:17It's a podcast, but you're on it.
- 40:22Thank you.
- 40:25Yeah, so this is kind of something that has intrigued me for a long time.
- 40:34And I think I may see it more than others because of where we're located being in Nashville.
- 40:45We get a lot of tourists and everything like that.
- 40:49But when you go to a sporting event, whether it be a pred's game or a Titans game, you see people walking around in just random jerseys.
- 40:59Like if you go to a Titans game and they're playing the Jags, you'll see some guy wearing a dolphin's jersey.
- 41:05And you're like, what are you doing?
- 41:09Like, why are you here?
- 41:13Is that wrong?
- 41:17Would you do that?
- 41:19If you were in a tourist city and you were just like, yeah, there's a game. Let's go.
- 41:24Would you guys walk around in your Titans gear?
- 41:28No.
- 41:30Only the only time I would do something like this.
- 41:35Let's say Victor Robinson plays for the Los Angeles Kings.
- 41:39Still correct? Yes. Does Kevin feel?
- 41:43Okay, well, I don't have his jersey.
- 41:47If I happen to find myself in Los Angeles and whoever I was with was like, hey, got tickets to a Kings game you win.
- 41:57I'm like, yeah, of course, that'd be fun.
- 41:59If I happen to have my Victor Arvindson National Prayers jersey on me, I consider wearing it.
- 42:06I would consider it. It doesn't mean I definitely would, but I would be like, should I wear this?
- 42:13Because I'm definitely not wearing like, I guess I don't like hate the Kings, so I don't, maybe I'd get like, pat.
- 42:20But I would not be wearing like a Kings like some whoever the hell they have on their team right now, like Jersey, pretending to be like an actual fan.
- 42:29Right. I think, I think if if you showed up to the Kings game in a Victor Arvindson jersey, I think, yes, a Victor Arvindson Prez jersey.
- 42:40I think that is acceptable. I think that because that guy is on that team.
- 42:50It's just the different Jersey. It shows that you know what you're talking about.
- 42:55You know, you recognize that that he's you kind of recognize that he's not on the team anymore.
- 43:04Oh, you're wearing that Jersey. Yeah.
- 43:07So I think I think that's acceptable. But as far as like wearing jerseys from a completely different team.
- 43:17No player likeness.
- 43:22I'm not like if I'm not so much about that. If you're in a Titans game and they're playing some random just AFC rival.
- 43:31It doesn't matter Broncos. And if you roll up in an Eagles jersey.
- 43:37That's not okay. Like that.
- 43:39Like even if you're from Philly, and you're just showing up and like your Lane Johnson Eagles jersey. Yeah, no, go ahead.
- 43:47That's not that's not cool because at least the only like.
- 43:53I'm just thinking like NFL here.
- 43:56Because I guess I see it the most at NFL games just because I don't know but
- 44:03the only way that I can like justify someone wearing a different teams jersey that isn't the teams playing in this stadium is if it's late in the year and it's a AFC match up and someone walks in with like
- 44:23I don't know like some other AFC team that has playoff implications like we need the Titans to win to like move up a spot or to clinch or something.
- 44:34So like I'm I'm repping my colors for y'all but I'm here for my own selfish reasons that happened this like that did that happen this year when we're playing the Jags was it and like Steelers fans were at the game.
- 44:52Maybe I believe so.
- 44:54I didn't go.
- 44:55No, I mean I just remember.
- 44:57I think I saw them on the TV.
- 44:58Yeah.
- 44:59Okay.
- 45:00I'm pretty sure it was that game.
- 45:02It might not have been Steelers.
- 45:03That was a long time ago.
- 45:04But it was whoever.
- 45:06I think it was a Steelers and more I think about it.
- 45:08But yeah, that honestly, I respect that almost almost said more.
- 45:12But that's like you travel like I've got Steelers fans are everywhere.
- 45:18But like that kind of implies you travel the ways to watch this game.
- 45:24I think I think there's levels to this.
- 45:27There's there's levels to this.
- 45:29There has to be like a little bit of a reason that you're wearing that jersey.
- 45:37You know, but like if it's got nothing to do with nothing, just just wear like a t-shirt.
- 45:44Just just just neutral.
- 45:46Just be just wet.
- 45:48Just wear like normal street clothes.
- 45:51Don't act like you're still a fan when like your team is playing at the same time that you're also coming to this game that you can't watch.
- 46:01Yeah, like.
- 46:03I also thought about this.
- 46:06I've never personally seen this.
- 46:09But like if we're at a Titans game.
- 46:13And someone came in with a Raven Steve McNair jersey.
- 46:17I'd want I want to fight him on site.
- 46:19It's it's on site.
- 46:21It's it is on site.
- 46:23It's on site.
- 46:25100% it's on site.
- 46:29Like I'm saying I'm not fighting him.
- 46:31I'm saying something like it's a Tom's to go about it.
- 46:35I'll put my hand on your fucking chest.
- 46:37Yeah.
- 46:38Hey, man, you better you better step out of here right now.
- 46:42Like if it's like a like fame like, yeah, Steve McNair did everything for the city and for this team, but he wouldn't like not know if all of his own was traded to a hated rival.
- 46:53If you wear the hated rivals colors, you can go to hell.
- 46:57However, I mean, this is a completely different scenario.
- 47:01If you're a Ravens fan and doing as a troll, objectively, that's hilarious.
- 47:06It makes me furious, but it is hilarious.
- 47:09That's how they know.
- 47:10That's how they know they got you.
- 47:11And I know that you know what, I respect you did get me.
- 47:15Yeah, very upset right now.
- 47:17Yeah, it's a solid.
- 47:19I respect you.
- 47:21Solid prank.
- 47:23Like people like you brought like dolphins and Titans if you're wearing like a dolphins, Tannehill Jersey.
- 47:30That's just weird.
- 47:33Like weird that someone owns that.
- 47:36I mean, Tannehill had like a couple fine years with the dolphins to my recollection, but he was not like a franchise legend.
- 47:45I mean, he was first round for the dolphins.
- 47:50I mean, I'm just I'm just saying, I mean, to justify their purchases like, yeah, oh, I get like purchasing it.
- 47:58But if I like, I just don't see why you would wear that again, if you're like visiting from Miami, I guess.
- 48:07But like, that'd be that'd be weird.
- 48:11But that is a reason that is there's a connection there.
- 48:16There's a connection.
- 48:17There's something, but I don't know.
- 48:19I would still be like, even if I like, if I put myself in that guy's hypothetical shoes, I still don't know if I would do that.
- 48:27Yeah, I if I were in, I really have no reason to go to any sporting event that isn't my own.
- 48:35But if I were to, I would just neutral like just street clothes, like I'm here to have a good time.
- 48:42And I kind of like the team.
- 48:45I might buy like hat something may make maybe a t-shirt.
- 48:51But yeah, I'm not getting like decked out or anything.
- 48:54Or yeah, like probably at least maybe like a similar color hoodie or something depending on the weather.
- 49:01But yeah, now that's and also this is, I guess kind of the same.
- 49:09I remember growing up in Knoxville, we have the famous Knoxville ice bears.
- 49:16I remember people would wear natural Predators jerseys to those things. I don't know why that always rubbed me the wrong way.
- 49:26It feels out of place.
- 49:29It's hockey and it's Tennessee. I get it. That feels like the most casual thing you can do.
- 49:35Like, hey, it's just Tennessee hockey. We're all in this together.
- 49:39No, they have nothing to do with each other.
- 49:41I don't care.
- 49:43Most of those guys are plumbers on the side.
- 49:47Oh, yeah.
- 49:49Legitimately.
- 49:53So, but it's just, I mean, I haven't been one of those games since I was a kid, but I remember being like a teenager being like, I don't like that.
- 50:01Something about that. Don't like.
- 50:04I know it's not the same ballpark, but.
- 50:07So, okay, different scenario, because this is what I texted y'all the second part of.
- 50:15I saw a tweet last night that someone was wearing a Ellie Tolvun in Jersey to the Preds Jets game.
- 50:25Ellie Tolvun and former predator put on waivers got picked up by the Seattle Kraken.
- 50:33That Ellie Tolvun in Jersey was a Seattle Kraken Jersey.
- 50:39Is that okay?
- 50:41No, because we fucked up putting him on waivers.
- 50:47So that's, that gives bad vibes.
- 50:52That's, that's, that's the part where it's like, that's not okay. We fucked up.
- 50:59Like, I don't know, kind of like wearing like a Kyle tourist jersey, like.
- 51:03No, it's, no, it's my involuntary reaction anytime we hear that man's name.
- 51:08It's a, it's a former player on a different team who has played more games on the other team than they did for us.
- 51:18That feels like just, I don't know what their angle was there.
- 51:25Like, I can't, I can't put those probably rubbing our face in it.
- 51:28But like, where they, are they from here?
- 51:33Or were they just fans of Tolvun in our, like, I have so many questions.
- 51:40That could be a troll Jersey, similar to the Steve McNair Ravens Jersey.
- 51:45I think this was a troll attempt.
- 51:48I would have to ask the person where he's like, I would need you to like before I passed on because I, I know it's not the exact same.
- 51:56But I said, like, if I was in LA, not in Robertson Jersey, I would consider wearing that if this guy is from Seattle or as a Kraken fan, whatever.
- 52:06And he was like, yeah.
- 52:08But again, he doesn't play for the team. So it's definitely not the same.
- 52:12So I guess throw that logic out the window.
- 52:15Yeah, I don't like it.
- 52:17Yeah.
- 52:18Yeah.
- 52:19Let me, let me pull up the tweet real quick.
- 52:22So yeah, when it's the guy doesn't even play there. Yeah.
- 52:27Like even if even if this guy is from Seattle and was in town on business say just hypothetical and he wore that.
- 52:36That's still not. That's weird.
- 52:39See, at the worst, like at the base, like the worst or best, I guess it could be is that's weird.
- 52:48It's either weird or a troll job.
- 52:50Like, yeah, so this guy on Twitter thinks that, and I'm not going to say his name because he doesn't deserve a shout out because he's wrong.
- 52:59But he says that to me, it's not the same. It's supporting a player who wants war sweater and is still a fan favorite. I say give him a pass.
- 53:11I don't think this guy's I don't think this I don't think he's a fan favorite.
- 53:16First and foremost, and then he can.
- 53:21I think I agree. I think he was liked. It wasn't like he was he was not like a fan favorite. He was liked.
- 53:31That's completely different.
- 53:33Yeah.
- 53:34And then he goes on to say and by that logic, y'all can't support anyone with a Weber jersey either.
- 53:39And I'm like,
- 53:42there's a logic franchise legend versus guy who hasn't played or guys played more games for another team and us.
- 53:52You can make an argument that she Weber should have his number.
- 53:58I don't think it's correct argument, but you could make that argument.
- 54:03Like I said, there's levels to this thing. Like if I just showed up at a random Preds game and someone had a habs Weber jersey, I wouldn't be too mad.
- 54:14Honestly, me personally, just because yeah, he spent most of his career in Nashville and it was like, and we traded him.
- 54:25So it's, I don't know. I feel no malice there.
- 54:30I feel like,
- 54:32yeah, no, I don't like, yeah, exactly.
- 54:36Yeah.
- 54:37But if if I'm at a Preds, I'm at a Preds Bruins game and I see some guy in a Minnesota wild Capri Zop jersey. I'm like, get the fuck out of here.
- 54:48What are you doing?
- 54:49They're hoodie. Where, where T shirt?
- 54:53Yeah, just wear the most like wear a white undershirt.
- 54:59Where where just a shirt that says who farted? I would like that better.
- 55:04Like, come on stupid.
- 55:10Yeah, so that guy's wrong, by the way.
- 55:16He couldn't be more wrong.
- 55:19This is either a troll job or it is supporting a former player which is stupid.
- 55:27Yeah, especially like, tolvin and like, yeah, he was, I think there's a lot of hope there.
- 55:35We cut him too early, I personally believe, but I like, he's not some like he was a young guy who didn't work out.
- 55:47You could say we didn't he didn't get a fair shake, but he at the end of the day, he didn't really work out.
- 55:53That happens all the fucking time. Like, what, what, what are we doing?
- 55:58So, yeah, just to wear it. Yeah, crack it unless.
- 56:04Yeah, that's weird.
- 56:05Well, Chris, do you see this when you go to baseball games to really occasionally you'll see like a weird hat.
- 56:17Like if I'm at like a reds, random to pirates game, and there'd be like a guy wearing like a Detroit Tigers hat.
- 56:25I'd be like, oh, that's weird, but I'm never like, I don't know.
- 56:30If he was wearing like a jersey.
- 56:33I know, I guess we're kind of splitting hairs at this point.
- 56:36I feel like a like, wearing it like a, if he was wearing a hobby bias, Tigers jersey.
- 56:41I'd be like, what the fuck, like, what do you like that when you're repping when you're wearing your jersey, you're repping the player as well.
- 56:48So it's like, what the hell you like this guy is was hated by the Reds and no connections to unless they're, I guess, if they're playing the Cubs because he's playing the Cubs.
- 56:58But yeah, occasionally, and to answer your question, occasionally you'll see a hat, but never like a.
- 57:07I've never noticed like, oh, what the hell is that guy doing wearing this random jersey.
- 57:12Okay, well, like I said, it may just be like a Nashville thing, because we're such a tourist hub right now.
- 57:22And maybe all these tourist cities have it.
- 57:26But yeah, when I went to Colorado, I didn't really see any of that.
- 57:31Like at the Preds games, it was either Preds or abs.
- 57:34And that was kind of it.
- 57:37I bet like California and like New York and probably Miami, especially like hockey.
- 57:45I bet all Miami sports really, you probably get some weird ass jerseys or hats or whatever the hell Vegas Vegas for sure.
- 57:55Yeah.
- 57:56I will say I went to a Preds game a couple weeks ago and I sat next to five, a group of five Canadian young men who are all from different provinces.
- 58:08I talked to them pretty nice guys.
- 58:12All of them just wearing like hoodies wearing just jackets, none of them repping each of these damn provinces as teams like they know they're there.
- 58:24They probably bleed for those guys, like whoever their respective teams are because they're Canadian.
- 58:32So we're hatched on the ice.
- 58:34If they can just wear like a pullover, then hell, like you can too.
- 58:40So I will say this and then we'll move on.
- 58:44The only group that gets this pass it and it doesn't happen anymore because he's retired are the traveling yogs.
- 58:54Yes.
- 58:55Those are the only those are the only guys that get a pass for everything we've said.
- 59:02No quash, no quash.
- 59:06Okay, debate over.
- 59:10All right.
- 59:11Christopher.
- 59:12Yes.
- 59:13What are you ready?
- 59:14Are you ready for your UFL Gamblin corner?
- 59:18I am ready.
- 59:20Before we get into the pics, just recap of some of the real quick real recap of some of the drama that happened in the UFL last weekend.
- 59:31You got did we talk about the the Brahmins kicker D Stroyer the rest.
- 59:39Yeah, he's might as well be dead.
- 59:41Broke his neck trying to make a tackle on a kickoff.
- 59:48That's maybe why you don't hire youtubers to be on your professional football team.
- 59:54Maybe I mean do was ripped but but yes, he's not he was he was a professional I guess but for a year and a half.
- 1:00:03Yeah, or a week and a half.
- 1:00:05Excuse me.
- 1:00:06Yes.
- 1:00:07You can call in that.
- 1:00:09I'm just saying like he if you can't form tackle, you shouldn't be even if you're a kicker, you shouldn't be on the team.
- 1:00:18Because he just and I don't know if you've seen the clip.
- 1:00:21I think sports center might have tweeted it or posted it.
- 1:00:25It was he made the tackle.
- 1:00:27The watchers team master kind of was like, oh good tackle good form and everything is like well he broke his neck.
- 1:00:32So maybe not the.
- 1:00:35Yeah, I saw that form.
- 1:00:37I saw that play he got like right back up and I was like he broke his neck on this play.
- 1:00:42The guy trying to find him.
- 1:00:43Yeah, tackle trying to fight.
- 1:00:45Yeah.
- 1:00:47But um, yeah, that happened.
- 1:00:51The Brahmas said Brahmas came back from 19 to three down in the third quarter and came back in 120 and 19.
- 1:01:02We'll get more of that later, but big comeback and then the Michigan Panthers kicker had his name.
- 1:01:10I need to give him some props.
- 1:01:13I don't have a whatever his name is.
- 1:01:16He kicked another 62 yard field goal so he is now hit from 64 and 62 in two weeks of the season so that's pretty that's pretty cool he deserves some flowers.
- 1:01:28But now we'll get into the plays real quick.
- 1:01:33Renegades plus two against the DC defenders.
- 1:01:37The regates.
- 1:01:39They, they're own to they lost to the two best teams in the league in the stallions and the Brahmas.
- 1:01:51I'm sorry my thing wasn't loading the defenders got hammered by the Brahmas and they barely be they've not very good, reduce in a rough next team.
- 1:02:04Give the ring gates plus two might sprinkle money line showboats plus seven they're going to be pissed off after their monumental collapse against the Brahmas.
- 1:02:14And had Brahmas minus two and that one right before the game. I was like, I just take money. Just take money line at like minus 125 or 120.
- 1:02:26I was like, nah, what are the odds. Let's just take the minus two.
- 1:02:30And then one by one. So that's the lesson we learned, I guess.
- 1:02:37Rough nips Panthers under 38 and a half.
- 1:02:41Neither team has scored more than 20 points in a game on the season.
- 1:02:46That's all you really need to know. Also, this Panthers kickers lights out anytime they get within range, it's, it's points. So that don't exactly push it to the limit in the red zone.
- 1:02:57Last one Brahmas battle Hawks over 42 and a half highest total of the week.
- 1:03:03I just love both teams. I love both these teams. So let's have some fun over 42 and a half.
- 1:03:09And that is the lightning round of Chris's UFL gambling corner for picks for winners. We're getting back in the wind column this week after a not great one and three start to the season.
- 1:03:20I just locked all four of them in while you were in. Let's go.
- 1:03:24And you should too.
- 1:03:25Listen at home.
- 1:03:27Also, I mean, last week, I was only like dead wrong on one of the, I mean, I was wrong on three, but I was only dead wrong.
- 1:03:35I almost came back in one by one. So I was that close by the Hawks had a minus five, they won by three.
- 1:03:44So it wasn't like these were just terrible picks just some some rough go some rough. I was like rough beats, but just the ball didn't bounce our way.
- 1:03:55You were right.
- 1:03:56I was right. And then the one the under I had was kind of a sweat because they had they were at 23, I think at the half I had under 40 and a half.
- 1:04:09I was in the fucking loser. And I think they scored like nine points in the second.
- 1:04:16It was awesome. But yeah, four picks for winners. We're back at it.
