- 1:05Speaker 1: me every time. Scooch. Our numbers last week were huge.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Some might say it's because the public had a big
- 1:13Speaker 1: week the week before and was looking to get some
- 1:15Speaker 1: advice to spend their money. I think it's because people
- 1:18Speaker 1: are starting to come around to the theme music. Yeah,
- 1:21Speaker 1: I think it's the music I'm banking on that. We
- 1:25Speaker 1: have so much to talk about. I have so many announcements. Um.
- 1:29Speaker 1: First off, First off, you just sent me a picture
- 1:33Speaker 1: of you sitting in a chair leather chair, leather recliners,
- 1:36Speaker 1: smoking a cigar, wearing a shirt that says, uh, I
- 1:42Speaker 1: smoked cigars and no things. And you got that from
- 1:46Speaker 1: who did you get that from I got that from
- 1:50Speaker 1: my a podcast listener. I believe you described them as
- 1:54Speaker 1: one of your fans before we came out. Wow, okay,
- 2:01Speaker 1: he was a fan. He was actually Oh my gosh,
- 2:06Speaker 1: I'm giddy. This is going to be such a good show.
- 2:08Speaker 1: I cannot believe it. We have so much stuff that
- 2:11Speaker 1: is so good about Scooch. Um, can I can I
- 2:15Speaker 1: share this on Twitter? Can I share this picture on Twitter?

- 2:38Speaker 1: next week on the podcast. Okay, you listeners need to
- 2:44Speaker 1: call this number. Write it down. I'll go slow to
- 2:48Speaker 1: zero three four eight nine six six four seven when
- 2:57Speaker 1: you when you call that number, will be given a
- 3:00Speaker 1: little bit of a treat when the line picks up.
- 3:03Speaker 1: And then you're gonna leave us a voicemail and you're
- 3:06Speaker 1: going to give us your favorite bet for the week
- 3:09Speaker 1: and Scooch and I are going to weigh in on
- 3:10Speaker 1: whether or not we think it's a good idea. It's
- 3:13Speaker 1: like our own little version of Dear Abbey, right. I
- 3:18Speaker 1: like that. I like that a lot. We get to
- 3:20Speaker 1: be the advice givers. You know why we smoke cigars
- 3:25Speaker 1: and no things. That's what we do. And again two
- 3:31Speaker 1: zero three eight nine six six four seven call that number,
- 3:36Speaker 1: leave us a voicemail. We are going to play it
- 3:39Speaker 1: on the air and then we're going to critique. You're
- 3:42Speaker 1: bet we will criticize and hopefully we'll enjoy it, but
- 3:45Speaker 1: if not, you're gonna get made fun of. Scooch. Today
- 3:49Speaker 1: is the trade deadline in UM the NFL. I want
- 3:54Speaker 1: to play a clip from last week. I know that
- 3:58Speaker 1: the Saints are going to get real aggressive before the deadline,
- 4:01Speaker 1: and we I think we talked a little bit about
- 4:04Speaker 1: them before we came on the air. So interesting team,
- 4:07Speaker 1: You and I may have some difference of opinions on them,
- 4:10Speaker 1: but uh, it's why do you say you know? Why
- 4:15Speaker 1: do you say you know they're going to get aggressive?
- 4:16Speaker 1: What do you what do you like? Tapped in? You've
- 4:20Speaker 1: got a source, We got sources? Yeah, exactly what do
- 4:24Speaker 1: you know, what do you know? No, they're making they're
- 4:30Speaker 1: making plays for certain personnel that are unhappy with their
- 4:34Speaker 1: current teams. And uh and they're one of the you
- 4:37Speaker 1: know from just from what we've heard, them and the
- 4:40Speaker 1: Eagles are both trying to get some of the same personnel. Scooch. Yeah,
- 4:46Speaker 1: honest to god, we're back live now. Um, what what
- 4:50Speaker 1: did you know? Because after the podcast, the Saints made
- 4:54Speaker 1: a trade for a player who was unhappy on his
- 4:56Speaker 1: team in Eli Apple, and meanwhile the Eagles made a
- 5:00Speaker 1: trade for Golden Tate. So listen, listen. Yeah, you don't
- 5:07Speaker 1: tell me your sources, Okay, but I do need to know.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Were you talking about Eli Apple? Yeah? You were, of course.
- 5:18Speaker 1: How did you know? Nobody knew that that wasn't in
- 5:21Speaker 1: the public domain. We were dialed in, we got we
- 5:24Speaker 1: got sources. What the Fox scooched? Seriously, what what is
- 5:29Speaker 1: going on? We can't we can't reveal our sources. But
- 5:33Speaker 1: you knew that we heard, I mean, we didn't know,
- 5:37Speaker 1: but you heard the Giants were gonna give it to
- 5:40Speaker 1: the Eli Apple and the Eagles and the Saints were
- 5:43Speaker 1: going for him. Yeah, what do you want? We I mean,
- 5:46Speaker 1: we got we got we We we have a network
- 5:48Speaker 1: of people that try to be as dialed in as
- 5:51Speaker 1: they can. And you know now now is uh sports
- 5:54Speaker 1: betting is getting approved and every state we're probably gonna
- 5:58Speaker 1: hear a lot more rumor you know, whether they pan
- 6:00Speaker 1: out or not is another story. How does this work?
- 6:04Speaker 1: How does it work? Like? I know how it works
- 6:06Speaker 1: with Chefty Um Like chef he's got eight phones and
- 6:11Speaker 1: he's literally up all night, never misses a call, he's
- 6:15Speaker 1: texting everywhere, like and he's brilliant at it. How does
- 6:20Speaker 1: it work for Scooch? Does someone called the Bowling Alley
- 6:22Speaker 1: and be like, listen someone, someone get a message to Scooch?
- 6:27Speaker 1: Eli apples on the market. Is that how it goes? Like?
- 6:30Speaker 1: What happens? Yeah? From the bowling Alley upstairs? They put
- 6:33Speaker 1: it in one of those little tubes and they shoot
- 6:35Speaker 1: it down into my like aneumatic tube and they and
- 6:39Speaker 1: then they more they put it in like Morse code
- 6:42Speaker 1: or something. How does it work? Tell me what happens?
- 6:47Speaker 1: How we've known each other for Scooch, we've known each
- 6:49Speaker 1: other for twenty years. We've never talked about this. Well,
- 6:54Speaker 1: we rely, I mean we rely on a lot of
- 6:56Speaker 1: consultants that are out there that are talking with a
- 6:59Speaker 1: lot of people around the country, and uh, sometimes they
- 7:02Speaker 1: give us bad information that doesn't pan out, and they'll
- 7:05Speaker 1: just tell us watch out for this game or watch
- 7:07Speaker 1: out for this game. Especially around around trade season, they'll
- 7:10Speaker 1: just be talking about certain teams that, uh, you know,
- 7:13Speaker 1: we're looking to make some some personnel changes, and they
- 7:16Speaker 1: just as a consultant, they want us to just be
- 7:19Speaker 1: on high alert to be quick to move a line
- 7:22Speaker 1: on a particular game. So, um, you know, when we
- 7:25Speaker 1: get like I said, well, we'll move the lines, even
- 7:28Speaker 1: on on rumors and even if they don't pan out
- 7:30Speaker 1: to be true. I am just so impressed with your
- 7:38Speaker 1: connections and your network and the fact that you have
- 7:42Speaker 1: kept this quiet for so long. Yeah, what else can
- 7:47Speaker 1: you tell me? What's Facebook? See? I wish I was
- 7:54Speaker 1: dialed into the market. That's not it's not doing too
- 7:56Speaker 1: well for me right now. Would you rather or of
- 8:01Speaker 1: these three things? What would you rather be dialed into?
- 8:05Speaker 1: A pipeline to Cuban cigars? What's happening in sports trading rumors?
- 8:15Speaker 1: Or the stock market? Oh? The stock market, Okay, I've
- 8:21Speaker 1: already got the pipeline to the Cuban cigars. So it's
- 8:23Speaker 1: just between that and there's that in the sports. I
- 8:30Speaker 1: feel like Scooch, I've done all that I can to
- 8:33Speaker 1: lift your profile and turn you into a national phenomenon.
- 8:36Speaker 1: And what I've gotten out of this is being told
- 8:39Speaker 1: I didn't write a book that I wrote, that I'm
- 8:42Speaker 1: the lesser of the podcast hosts and not a single cigar.
- 8:47Speaker 1: I didn't know you even I don't, but it's nice
- 8:50Speaker 1: to be offered, all right, or or you don't even
- 8:58Speaker 1: give me inside info when you're getting it. I gave
- 9:02Speaker 1: it to everybody mm hmm. Then we talked about it
- 9:07Speaker 1: last week. We did We didn't really say anything. You
- 9:11Speaker 1: just sort of what you did was intimate, like ha ha,
- 9:14Speaker 1: I know things you don't speaking speaking of ha ha.
- 9:24Speaker 1: What what are you laughing at? Do you think I'm
- 9:25Speaker 1: gonna say something about ha ha? Clinton? Dick's getting no
- 9:29Speaker 1: no sometimes and I just wanna Sometimes it comes back
- 9:32Speaker 1: to to to bite you. Sometimes you think you have
- 9:35Speaker 1: the right information, it turns out to be wrong, and
- 9:37Speaker 1: you move a line and you get crushed. How are
- 9:42Speaker 1: things going for you the past couple of weeks? Like
- 9:44Speaker 1: I was three and three this weekend in the last minute,
- 9:49Speaker 1: I bet the Giants and I shouldn't have done it.
- 9:53Speaker 1: Big mistake. Yeah it was. Last week was almost a
- 9:57Speaker 1: repeat of the week before. It was almost like deja
- 10:00Speaker 1: vu all over again, all the uh starting with the
- 10:03Speaker 1: game in London, losing that one, and then just kind
- 10:06Speaker 1: of rolling right into the morning games where all of
- 10:09Speaker 1: them looked like we were kind of sweeping the board
- 10:12Speaker 1: at halftime if we could just stop the game at halftimes.
- 10:15Speaker 1: We were doing pretty well on a lot of the
- 10:17Speaker 1: big decisions. Uh and then it just everything fell apart.
- 10:21Speaker 1: You know that the Jets were kind of hanging in
- 10:23Speaker 1: there with with the Bears. That was a big game.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Um the uh, well, Denver ended up covering Force. That
- 10:31Speaker 1: was the back door with Denver actually saved our our day.
- 10:34Speaker 1: That was one of the few wins we had. But uh,
- 10:36Speaker 1: Cleveland was kind of hanging in there with Pittsburgh for
- 10:39Speaker 1: a while in the first half, and it looked like
- 10:41Speaker 1: we were gonna have a decent day and then just
- 10:43Speaker 1: everything fell apart. And uh So, like I said, kind
- 10:46Speaker 1: of a replay of the week before. Two bad weeks
- 10:48Speaker 1: in a row. And now this week is a short
- 10:51Speaker 1: schedule with with six teams on a buy uh. Sometimes
- 10:55Speaker 1: that works against us because there's just more concentration on
- 10:59Speaker 1: some of the profile games and you don't have a
- 11:01Speaker 1: whole lot of other games to bail you out. It's just,
- 11:04Speaker 1: you know, sink or swim with just one or two
- 11:06Speaker 1: big decisions. We're recording this on Tuesday evening, East Coast time.
- 11:10Speaker 1: Last night, the Patriots back door to the Bills UH
- 11:14Speaker 1: pick six final three and a half minutes. They ended
- 11:17Speaker 1: up winning by nineteen. I was on the Patriots at
- 11:21Speaker 1: minus thirteen and a half. I never do it, um,
- 11:24Speaker 1: but my Action Network colleague and Favorites podcast co host
- 11:28Speaker 1: for the Friday podcast, black Jack Fletcher, was insistent that
- 11:32Speaker 1: we take the Patriots um, and like when it got
- 11:36Speaker 1: to the fourth quarters twelve six, I texted him, I'm like,
- 11:40Speaker 1: you fucker, I cannot believe you convinced me to do this,
- 11:45Speaker 1: And now I gotta sweat this game when I'm really
- 11:47Speaker 1: tired and I kind of want to go to sleep. Yeah,
- 11:51Speaker 1: And I was kind of in the same boat from
- 11:53Speaker 1: the bookmaking side of it, because I went to fourteen
- 11:56Speaker 1: and a half early in the day and the phone's
- 11:59Speaker 1: just lit up with all the the sharp guys in
- 12:03Speaker 1: town taking the plus four teen and a half. It
- 12:04Speaker 1: was just like a Christmas tree. The whole screen just
- 12:07Speaker 1: went bang and everybody was taking the fourteen and a
- 12:10Speaker 1: half and then like you like, all the way up
- 12:13Speaker 1: until the fourth courter, I was like, man, why did
- 12:15Speaker 1: I go to fourteen and a half? I took so
- 12:16Speaker 1: much money back that, you know, it could have just
- 12:20Speaker 1: locked it all up. And then I know it was
- 12:23Speaker 1: Derrick Anderson, but it was a Peterman pick six, Peterman
- 12:26Speaker 1: pick six when Peterman, when Peterman uh came out came on.
- 12:32Speaker 1: I mean, this is my perspective on life. I was thinking,
- 12:36Speaker 1: oh my god, I've nicknamed him Nathan pick six, and
- 12:40Speaker 1: this is when he's going to spite me. Like somehow
- 12:43Speaker 1: in here hermic wave that drifts from you know, Manhattan
- 12:50Speaker 1: to Buffalo, Nathan Peterman somehow heard that I have defined
- 12:54Speaker 1: him as uh, the pick six king, and he's going
- 12:58Speaker 1: to throw a backdoor cover touchdown. Then I realized it
- 13:01Speaker 1: was Nathan Peterman, and I really didn't have anything to
- 13:03Speaker 1: worry about it. I was actually rooting the opposite. I
- 13:07Speaker 1: was actually hoping he would throw a second pick six
- 13:10Speaker 1: to at least kill some of the teasers on Buffalo.
- 13:13Speaker 1: What was the teaser six point teaser to like like
- 13:17Speaker 1: twenty you know between Um, I mean, there weren't much.
- 13:22Speaker 1: I mean, obviously most of the teasers were teasing the
- 13:25Speaker 1: Patriots down to seven. But it was a morsel of
- 13:29Speaker 1: something to kind of hold onto it. You could have won, yeah,
- 13:35Speaker 1: when you otherwise wouldn't have all the genius bookmaking you
- 13:40Speaker 1: did to lose less than you possibly could have. There
- 13:45Speaker 1: was a couple of moves we made. I was kind of,
- 13:47Speaker 1: you know, proud of that. They won't show up in
- 13:51Speaker 1: the box score, so to speak, intangibles. Give me, give
- 13:54Speaker 1: me an example of the move you made that you're like, yeah, right, well,
- 13:59Speaker 1: the Eagles, the Eagles of the night before the game
- 14:04Speaker 1: in London, I went first to go to four and
- 14:06Speaker 1: a half and then five and Um. So that one.
- 14:10Speaker 1: That was another one where I thought I made the
- 14:12Speaker 1: wrong move and turned out to be okay. Um, just
- 14:16Speaker 1: a couple of games like that where I would just
- 14:18Speaker 1: move an extra point point and a half. Um, kind
- 14:22Speaker 1: of just turned out to be a little little extra
- 14:25Speaker 1: money on from from the wise guys, when they see
- 14:27Speaker 1: a good number like that, you're the best bookmaker in
- 14:31Speaker 1: the history of bookmaker. Yeah, I would put you on
- 14:36Speaker 1: a mount rush more of bookmakers. Well, I appreciate that
- 14:41Speaker 1: you've earned it. Look at all you've done for the industry,
- 14:45Speaker 1: podcasting legend. You've written a book. Yeah, signed a lot
- 14:50Speaker 1: of books this week? Actually did? I told him I've
- 14:52Speaker 1: given a Yeah. I love that for you. I don't
- 14:58Speaker 1: really sign any books anymore. Um, let's get to some games, man. Okay,
- 15:04Speaker 1: let's also remark let's remind only thirteen games this week.
- 15:07Speaker 1: Let's remind people two zero, three, eight, nine six seven
- 15:12Speaker 1: leave us a voicemail. If we don't get voicemails, Scooch
- 15:15Speaker 1: is going to be upset. You don't want to make
- 15:17Speaker 1: Scooch upset. Bears minus nine and a half at the
- 15:24Speaker 1: Nathan Peterman's We keep creeping up on this man, oh man,
- 15:33Speaker 1: why are you doing this to me? Go ahead, I
- 15:39Speaker 1: gotta bet the Buffalo Bills as what's gonna end up
- 15:41Speaker 1: being ten or eleven point dogs at home against Chicago Bears.
- 15:46Speaker 1: I can't do that. You and two other people there's
- 15:50Speaker 1: we've got no money on the bills whatsoever right now.
- 15:54Speaker 1: I would imagine, but you're not getting wise guy money
- 15:57Speaker 1: on the Bears. Are you No, it's all public and uh,
- 16:01Speaker 1: it's just a huge percentage, a huge ratio, and like
- 16:04Speaker 1: you said, it's just gonna keep creeping up. Um yeah,
- 16:09Speaker 1: we'll we'll move this to ten eventually. I just wanted
- 16:12Speaker 1: to see if if we'd get any takers at nine
- 16:15Speaker 1: nine and a half. It's actually moving as we speak. So, um, yeah,
- 16:19Speaker 1: that do it? Should we do it? Not? No, not,
- 16:22Speaker 1: we're not doing it. But I see I see a
- 16:25Speaker 1: lot of people coming up fifteen. Well, I want to
- 16:30Speaker 1: see if I, uh tenant ten is? Yeah, what I am,
- 16:34Speaker 1: my wife, I'm going to go to ten. You're right
- 16:36Speaker 1: right now, come on bank there it is. I'll let
- 16:43Speaker 1: you know if I get any uh any money back.
- 16:46Speaker 1: I like that. I mean, look, you're not gonna get
- 16:48Speaker 1: any money. Like you can put this thing at thirty.
- 16:51Speaker 1: I would like to see, like you should test it.
- 16:54Speaker 1: Put it at thirty, see if you get any bets,
- 16:57Speaker 1: and then just immediately move it down you down like
- 17:00Speaker 1: my Okay. So there's a story with my my big Tony,
- 17:04Speaker 1: my boss big Tony, right, a few years a few
- 17:08Speaker 1: years back, the Giants were thirteen point dogs against the Cowboys,
- 17:13Speaker 1: and he called me up and He's like, what do
- 17:14Speaker 1: you have the line on that? And I said thirteen.
- 17:16Speaker 1: He goes, thirteen, that's not enough. The Cowboys are gonna
- 17:19Speaker 1: win by twenty and we uh so I said, all right,
- 17:23Speaker 1: I moved it up another half a point, actually a
- 17:26Speaker 1: full point. I went up to fourteen and just took
- 17:29Speaker 1: about eight hundred thousand dollars back real quick. And uh,
- 17:35Speaker 1: the Giants beat the Cowboys straight up that week, and
- 17:39Speaker 1: he calls me. He calls me up, He's like, how
- 17:41Speaker 1: do we do I said, I could have done a
- 17:43Speaker 1: lot better if I didn't move the Cowboys up to fourteen,
- 17:46Speaker 1: and we took all his money back on the on
- 17:48Speaker 1: the Giants. And he says, well, you know better than
- 17:50Speaker 1: to listen to me. That's not right. You can't do that.
- 17:57Speaker 1: I can't do that. You can't do that, Big Tony.
- 17:59Speaker 1: You know better than that. Interesting game in the Bay Area.
- 18:06Speaker 1: Oakland is a three point dog at San Francisco. Huh so, yeah,
- 18:15Speaker 1: I mean too, well, the two wins between them, and uh,
- 18:19Speaker 1: somebody's somebody's got to win this one. Hopefully, what's this
- 18:22Speaker 1: will probably be the uh, the most exciting game on
- 18:25Speaker 1: the board. Uh. Afterwards, we'll look back and say, of
- 18:28Speaker 1: all the games, this was the one that you least
- 18:31Speaker 1: expect is probably the one that's going to turn out
- 18:33Speaker 1: to be the most exciting. So uh yeah, just a
- 18:37Speaker 1: battle of real bad teams that are on the downward spiral.
- 18:40Speaker 1: And this is the time of the year. You know,
- 18:42Speaker 1: you get into kind of week eight, week nine. Uh,
- 18:46Speaker 1: a lot of these teams are kind of giving up
- 18:48Speaker 1: on the season and uh they're they've got organizational problems,
- 18:53Speaker 1: kind of like the Browns and uh, the Raiders are
- 18:56Speaker 1: one of those teams that, uh, you know, we talked
- 18:58Speaker 1: about him last week, unloading all of their best personnel.
- 19:02Speaker 1: So it's kind of that time of the year when
- 19:05Speaker 1: the bad teams get worse and they and they and
- 19:08Speaker 1: they continue to get worse before they kind of make
- 19:11Speaker 1: a little bit of a resurgence before the end of
- 19:13Speaker 1: the year. Um, and the odds makers are struggling adjusting
- 19:17Speaker 1: them down each week, and then you get to that
- 19:20Speaker 1: one point where they seem to surprise everybody because we've
- 19:22Speaker 1: over adjusted every all these bad teams. But in the meantime,
- 19:26Speaker 1: we've got to suffer through a few bad weeks. Luckily,
- 19:29Speaker 1: the bad teams are playing each other and the good
- 19:31Speaker 1: teams are playing each other this week that might bal
- 19:33Speaker 1: us out. So what's interesting is um, I mean these
- 19:37Speaker 1: teams are both are both just train wreck dumpster fires.
- 19:41Speaker 1: But um, I think it could be an interesting game.
- 19:48Speaker 1: Ticket counts. The Niners defense is so bad, the Raiders
- 19:52Speaker 1: have some offensive weapons. Um it's just like this be competitive. Yeah,
- 20:02Speaker 1: there was another game last week where Oakland looked like
- 20:05Speaker 1: they were gonna hang in there with Indianapolis, and they
- 20:08Speaker 1: showed a lot of signs of life. I think there's
- 20:11Speaker 1: more value on the Raiders here than there are on
- 20:13Speaker 1: the Niners. With the three points, we saw a couple
- 20:16Speaker 1: of plays from some pretty good handicappers that that that
- 20:21Speaker 1: consistently do pretty well. They weren't real large dollar amounts,
- 20:24Speaker 1: but they were just a little taste at plus three. UM.
- 20:27Speaker 1: I know some places were at three and a half
- 20:29Speaker 1: at one point, so that even more value there. But
- 20:32Speaker 1: like I was saying, the ticket accounts fairly even though
- 20:35Speaker 1: just a couple of couple of big bets on the Raiders.
- 20:38Speaker 1: That's the Thursday night game. By the way, I skipped
- 20:40Speaker 1: it by accident. I meant to I'm necessary with that one.
- 20:43Speaker 1: UM I thought there was a means to your madness.
- 20:45Speaker 1: There just a mistake. It happens, happens the best of us,
- 20:51Speaker 1: not you, but me, Carolina. They are a touchdown favorite,
- 20:57Speaker 1: seven points touched on and an extra point, which is
- 21:00Speaker 1: not a insignificant thing these days. Um against Tampa Bay, Well,
- 21:08Speaker 1: you know in Tampa Bay another team where I haven't
- 21:11Speaker 1: found the identity yet with the with the quarterback going
- 21:14Speaker 1: back and forth, and um, I'll call him by the
- 21:17Speaker 1: right name this week, Fitzpatrick. And uh, what did you
- 21:22Speaker 1: do last Yeah? Did I talk about the girl I
- 21:27Speaker 1: dated in college name Megan Fitzgerald? You did? That's And
- 21:32Speaker 1: I got a couple of comments actually from people that
- 21:35Speaker 1: knew about the casino. Fitzgerald's here that we're listening to
- 21:37Speaker 1: the podcast, and you're saying, hey, I like the reference
- 21:40Speaker 1: last week to Fitzgerald's casino. Like, honest to god, Scrooge,
- 21:44Speaker 1: you're not on Twitter. People can't find your email. Nobody
- 21:47Speaker 1: emails me or tweets anything to me about the podcast.
- 21:50Speaker 1: You get comments from like Carrier Pigeon and the Newmatic
- 21:56Speaker 1: Tube coming down from up in the bowling alley. It's
- 21:59Speaker 1: kind of ridiculous. Yeah, it makes me upset. But but
- 22:05Speaker 1: getting back to the game. Uh, yeah, it's one of
- 22:08Speaker 1: those teams that, uh, that are still struggling with obviously
- 22:14Speaker 1: their their quarterback position. You don't did you did you
- 22:17Speaker 1: adjust aligne it all for um Ryan Fitzgerald. We did
- 22:24Speaker 1: just a half a point, but it was it was
- 22:26Speaker 1: on the high side anyway. So here's like I was
- 22:28Speaker 1: saying that a situation where the Panthers looked pretty good. Uh,
- 22:33Speaker 1: one of the teams that doesn't get a lot of respect,
- 22:35Speaker 1: but the little recency buyas they look look good last
- 22:39Speaker 1: week and surprised a lot of people. So that's going
- 22:41Speaker 1: to carry over into this week where uh, just the
- 22:44Speaker 1: kind of uncertainty and inconsistency with the Buccaneers is not
- 22:48Speaker 1: gonna turn on any of the better. So uh, it's
- 22:51Speaker 1: just gonna be about a five or six to one
- 22:53Speaker 1: ratio of Panther money to Buccaneers. So I could see
- 22:57Speaker 1: this kind of creeping up to seven by the by
- 22:59Speaker 1: the end of the week. Kansas City is a nine
- 23:02Speaker 1: and a half point favorite on the road against the
- 23:05Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns, who have lost both their head coach and
- 23:08Speaker 1: their offensive coordinator. Yeah, Brown started out the year playing
- 23:14Speaker 1: competitive and uh, you know, finding out now that there
- 23:19Speaker 1: was all this turmoil and in the locker room and
- 23:22Speaker 1: uh and with the coaching staff, and UH kind of
- 23:26Speaker 1: makes sense because there was a sudden just kind of
- 23:30Speaker 1: a shift in a team that we're big underdogs, but
- 23:32Speaker 1: they played very competitive and in the last couple of
- 23:35Speaker 1: weeks we just weren't seeing that. And UM, it's tough
- 23:39Speaker 1: to handicap the response of the team after uh, you know,
- 23:45Speaker 1: losing a head coach, offensive coordinator. UH, it just depends
- 23:49Speaker 1: on circumstances whether they wanted to see that change and
- 23:53Speaker 1: maybe that uh motivates them a little bit. But I
- 23:56Speaker 1: did see some statistics out there that over the over
- 23:59Speaker 1: the years, every time the Browns fire head coach, they
- 24:02Speaker 1: come out I think they're oh and nine the week
- 24:04Speaker 1: after the week after they fire a head coach. I
- 24:08Speaker 1: know we're going back a lot of years. The Browns
- 24:10Speaker 1: aren't going to be the Browns. The percentages and the
- 24:14Speaker 1: Browns being oh in anything the week after summer high
- 24:17Speaker 1: versus one and something. I agree, the week after I
- 24:22Speaker 1: opened a coke the Browns or oh and thirty two,
- 24:30Speaker 1: the week after your wife walks into your office while
- 24:32Speaker 1: you're recording a podcast. The Browns have historically been losers
- 24:37Speaker 1: against the spread exactly, so this is gonna be another
- 24:42Speaker 1: week where they're gonna lose. Uh. We are getting a
- 24:45Speaker 1: little bit of money, uh on the Browns at plus
- 24:49Speaker 1: nine and a half, but not nearly enough to offset
- 24:52Speaker 1: all the all the public money. It's just it was
- 24:55Speaker 1: just kind of again, one small bet from a couple
- 24:58Speaker 1: of guys that fairly do fairly well and usually bet
- 25:01Speaker 1: dogs home dogs. Uh. Boy, this one's gonna be ugly though.
- 25:06Speaker 1: We're gonna need the Browns in the worst way for
- 25:10Speaker 1: your lungs. I'm gonna need him for our lungs. I
- 25:15Speaker 1: love this next game. I love it. Love it. Washington
- 25:22Speaker 1: Redskins minus one and a half at home against the
- 25:25Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. I think I think you've hung a crooked
- 25:30Speaker 1: line here, buddy. I think you are gonna get smoked.
- 25:41Speaker 1: So it's funny because I've made kind of higher on
- 25:45Speaker 1: the Falcons throughout most of the beginning of the year
- 25:48Speaker 1: than I probably should have been, and then we had
- 25:51Speaker 1: to make some adjustments, and now I think we are
- 25:53Speaker 1: in a situation where there's probably a little more value
- 25:56Speaker 1: on the on the Falcons, but just judging by the
- 26:00Speaker 1: money and the ticket account I think we nailed it.
- 26:04Speaker 1: I mean that, I think people look at this game
- 26:07Speaker 1: and they're the points spread isn't gonna change their decision
- 26:11Speaker 1: on who they want to bet. You know, they're gonna
- 26:14Speaker 1: look at this game other games where you're not quite
- 26:17Speaker 1: sure who's gonna win the game, but the points will
- 26:19Speaker 1: say I'll take three and a half or I'll take three. Um,
- 26:22Speaker 1: we're only talking about one one and a half points here. Um,
- 26:25Speaker 1: I think it's going to be dead even in terms
- 26:28Speaker 1: of money. Listen, the Restkings are gonna win this game.
- 26:31Speaker 1: They're gonna cover. You're gonna get slammed. Miami is a
- 26:34Speaker 1: three point favorite at home against the Jets. Hardly any
- 26:38Speaker 1: action on this one, but I think, uh, three is
- 26:41Speaker 1: that the right number on this one to kind of
- 26:44Speaker 1: teams that looked a lot better at the beginning of
- 26:46Speaker 1: the season and they're kind of coming back down to reality,
- 26:49Speaker 1: and a lot of the betters have jumped off both teams.
- 26:52Speaker 1: So when you have two teams that neither that that
- 26:56Speaker 1: the public doesn't want to bet either one of them,
- 26:58Speaker 1: we just we get no action. But we'll probably end
- 27:01Speaker 1: up needing the Jets for a little bit only because
- 27:04Speaker 1: Miami is the favorite, but it's gonna be probably the
- 27:08Speaker 1: corner TV game. By the sounds of it, those are
- 27:13Speaker 1: the only teams that are getting no action, if you
- 27:16Speaker 1: know what I mean. Yeah, do you get it? I do,
- 27:20Speaker 1: making a reference to Okay, I got you. I love
- 27:25Speaker 1: this next game, Baltimore Ravens minus three at home against
- 27:30Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers. Oh my goodness, are the Baltimore Ravens
- 27:36Speaker 1: undervalued as the home favorite in this game? Give me
- 27:41Speaker 1: the Ravens? Yeah? So um, I mean, the public's all
- 27:48Speaker 1: over Pittsburgh in this one of my I mean every
- 27:51Speaker 1: time these two teams play, even though we talked about
- 27:54Speaker 1: the last time they played, you just automatically make the
- 27:58Speaker 1: home team three point favorites and then the public will
- 28:00Speaker 1: take the underdog in this series. It's just automatic. And
- 28:04Speaker 1: we we've seen it over the last few years, and
- 28:08Speaker 1: we did. We hung three. The public overwhelmingly was on
- 28:13Speaker 1: the Steelers and I I went to two and a
- 28:18Speaker 1: half just to test the waters and I got hit immediately.
- 28:23Speaker 1: So I think the sharp guys, given the opportunity, would
- 28:27Speaker 1: rather lay the two and a half. To me, they've
- 28:29Speaker 1: already tipped their hand on this one because of how quickly.
- 28:33Speaker 1: They bet it as soon as I went to two
- 28:34Speaker 1: and a half. So, um, I think if you see
- 28:37Speaker 1: a two and a half and you like Baltimore, you
- 28:39Speaker 1: should grab it because I think it'll I think they'll
- 28:43Speaker 1: be on your side come game day and you might
- 28:46Speaker 1: see three three minus twenty. But the public is just
- 28:49Speaker 1: they're back in love with the Steelers now. So it's
- 28:52Speaker 1: about an eight to one, ten to one ratio just
- 28:54Speaker 1: on tickets Steelers to Ravens. But the big money seems
- 28:57Speaker 1: to be on the Ravens. Does Uh the Vike's killed
- 29:01Speaker 1: me last week? That was my scootroo we pick. Yeah,
- 29:06Speaker 1: that was a that was a tough one, really hard.
- 29:08Speaker 1: I'm just I'm distracted for a second cause I'm thinking
- 29:11Speaker 1: about the trade deadline that was today. Um, the Bill
- 29:14Speaker 1: signed Terrell Prior, maybe he's gonna play quarterback. Nothing in
- 29:17Speaker 1: the Raiders, Niners. Nothing in the Panthers box, nothing in
- 29:20Speaker 1: the Chiefs Browns ha ha, Clinton Dicks traded the to
- 29:24Speaker 1: the Redskins. That didn't have an effect on the line
- 29:26Speaker 1: for you. New York Jets, Miami Dolphins, nothing, Pittsburgh Steelers,
- 29:30Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens, nothing, Detroit Minnesota nothing, l a Chargers. Uh
- 29:35Speaker 1: they are two point dogs at Seattle. Listen, you know
- 29:40Speaker 1: I love to bet home dogs, I mean short home
- 29:43Speaker 1: favorites and short favorite. This Chargers team is wickedly underrated.
- 29:49Speaker 1: They are um but I think Melvin Gordon's questionable on
- 29:53Speaker 1: this one. Okay, So that's the only And actually I
- 29:58Speaker 1: kind of kind of favor the Seahawks here, and I'm
- 30:01Speaker 1: kind of drawing trying to draw a little Charger money.
- 30:04Speaker 1: So I would normally agree with you, but in this situation,
- 30:07Speaker 1: I'm actually, uh, I'm actually favorite in Seattle. Why do
- 30:11Speaker 1: you favorite Seahawks just because of the injury? You think
- 30:13Speaker 1: they're a better team, you think they're not value. You're
- 30:15Speaker 1: making a bet, your bookmaker making a bet. Well, you know,
- 30:18Speaker 1: we're trying to just judge on where we think the
- 30:21Speaker 1: money is going to go on this one. But if
- 30:24Speaker 1: you know, that's where we start from. But if I'm
- 30:27Speaker 1: actually favoring a team, I want to be a little
- 30:29Speaker 1: bit higher on the Seahawks here at home. Think situationally,
- 30:33Speaker 1: it's more of the right place. And you said it
- 30:36Speaker 1: yourself just a minute ago that you normally favor these
- 30:38Speaker 1: short home favorites, but you just are that high on
- 30:42Speaker 1: the Chargers. So it's more of your kind of uh
- 30:46Speaker 1: bias on the Chargers themselves rather than the situation. And
- 30:49Speaker 1: I'm kind of going on the situation. Okay. The next
- 30:56Speaker 1: game is the Demerius Thomas bull because the Denver Broncos
- 31:02Speaker 1: have traded to Marius Thomas to the Houston Texans of
- 31:06Speaker 1: the Super Bowl ticket fame. Uh de Marius Thomas is
- 31:11Speaker 1: not going to have an impact on the points bread
- 31:13Speaker 1: but it's interesting to me that this game is at pick. Yeah.
- 31:17Speaker 1: So the line did move places, uh after the Demerius
- 31:22Speaker 1: Thomas trade, but I we moved it prior to that.
- 31:27Speaker 1: Just when when when we made the line, were just
- 31:31Speaker 1: kind of like I talked about it before last week,
- 31:34Speaker 1: how after you put all the lines out, sometimes you
- 31:37Speaker 1: miss one and you go back to it and it's
- 31:38Speaker 1: just kind of just looks wrong based on where the
- 31:42Speaker 1: public is going to be, uh you know place in
- 31:44Speaker 1: their bets. You just kind of know that at that number,
- 31:48Speaker 1: you're just gonna be buried on one particular side. And
- 31:51Speaker 1: at two and a half three on the Broncos, which
- 31:53Speaker 1: is some of the early lines that were being put
- 31:56Speaker 1: out there, it was just inviting Texans money. And I
- 31:59Speaker 1: don't think you can give the Texans three points even
- 32:02Speaker 1: in uh, even in Denver. So we started seeing this
- 32:05Speaker 1: line move, and I know that a lot of it's
- 32:07Speaker 1: going to be attributed to the trade, but like you said,
- 32:09Speaker 1: it really isn't. This line was moving anyway. Uh. I
- 32:14Speaker 1: feel like there's a couple of games. So you know,
- 32:15Speaker 1: I've been the last few weeks. I've bet early in
- 32:19Speaker 1: the week and I've lost the best of the number
- 32:21Speaker 1: on some games, and so I've been trying to hold
- 32:23Speaker 1: my powder a little bit, and I think it's cost
- 32:25Speaker 1: me because like I would have bet the Texans plus
- 32:27Speaker 1: three the next game. Um, I probably would have bet.
- 32:31Speaker 1: Now I still may end at beating the charters. I
- 32:34Speaker 1: like where the Redskins are going. I'm probably gonna bet
- 32:36Speaker 1: that game. Um you mean you like that. I thought
- 32:39Speaker 1: you said you like the Falcons in that one. I
- 32:41Speaker 1: like the Redskins. Okay, I like the Ravens and minus
- 32:46Speaker 1: three some games that I like here like the Ravens.
- 32:49Speaker 1: I like the Redskins. Uh. I like I like I'm
- 32:54Speaker 1: gonna like Houston. I like it a lot. Um. I
- 32:59Speaker 1: mean the next game, forget about it. The next name
- 33:03Speaker 1: I didn't get the best of the number. Because the
- 33:05Speaker 1: Saints open as one point dogs. Now they are one
- 33:07Speaker 1: and a half point favorites. Uh. The majority of the
- 33:11Speaker 1: tickets are coming in on the Rams, but the majority
- 33:14Speaker 1: of the money is coming in on the Saints. Uh.
- 33:17Speaker 1: It means to me you're getting some wise guy money
- 33:21Speaker 1: a little bit, and but I think some of it's. Uh,
- 33:23Speaker 1: We're not overwhelmingly lopsided on the on the Rams. As
- 33:27Speaker 1: a matter of fact, this is pretty even, at least
- 33:29Speaker 1: in in our sports books. And I think kind of
- 33:33Speaker 1: the secrets out a little bit on this matchup. In
- 33:36Speaker 1: terms of the line, I think people were hoping to
- 33:41Speaker 1: get the Saints at plus two and a half plus three.
- 33:43Speaker 1: I know a lot of early lines out there a
- 33:45Speaker 1: couple of weeks back, when you have some of the
- 33:47Speaker 1: marquee matchups and you have some look aheadlines. I've seen
- 33:50Speaker 1: the Rams were as high as three. And I was
- 33:53Speaker 1: actually hoping that the Vikings would have beaten the Saints
- 33:57Speaker 1: last week. I know you hoped for too, for other
- 34:00Speaker 1: reasons because he had a bet on him, but I
- 34:01Speaker 1: was kind of hoping that the Vikings would beat the
- 34:03Speaker 1: Saints last week and then the Ram Rams would open
- 34:06Speaker 1: up about a two and a half point favorite. Everybody
- 34:08Speaker 1: would bet the Rams and then the Saints would win
- 34:10Speaker 1: this one. So but now I feel like everyone feel
- 34:14Speaker 1: felt that the Saints are gonna win this one to
- 34:17Speaker 1: begin with, and uh, I might have to reverse myself
- 34:21Speaker 1: and go go with the Rams on this one. Um,
- 34:24Speaker 1: It's just, I mean, there's nothing. This is just a
- 34:26Speaker 1: great game and a great matchup. Is one of the
- 34:29Speaker 1: biggest most anticipated games of the year so far, just
- 34:34Speaker 1: based on the performance of both teams and how how
- 34:37Speaker 1: well they're playing of late. Uh, So, I mean it,
- 34:40Speaker 1: it's just basically a pick hum game. The point spread
- 34:43Speaker 1: really shouldn't come into play, um, and I can't see
- 34:46Speaker 1: it reaching three on either side. So um, it's basically
- 34:49Speaker 1: a coin flip. I'm gonna bet the Saints. I mean there,
- 34:55Speaker 1: it's it fits your profile of a short home favorite
- 34:59Speaker 1: and h again, like kind of what I was saying
- 35:02Speaker 1: about the Seahawks in a situational game. I said it
- 35:04Speaker 1: last week that the Saints this was the kind of
- 35:07Speaker 1: game that you know the would deal the Rams their
- 35:10Speaker 1: first loss. Um. But uh, I just I mean, to me,
- 35:14Speaker 1: the most interesting thing on this is the total. It's
- 35:16Speaker 1: the first sixty. We've seen in my god years, it's
- 35:19Speaker 1: been years since we've opened a game sixty. But I
- 35:23Speaker 1: guess that's just kind of where we're headed in the
- 35:25Speaker 1: NFL and and the scoring now, especially with these two teams.
- 35:30Speaker 1: I feel like it would be fun to create um
- 35:35Speaker 1: better profiles for things like Tinder and like my profile
- 35:39Speaker 1: would be likes short home favorites, likes home dogs, likes
- 35:45Speaker 1: to bet against the market, you know what I mean,
- 35:49Speaker 1: And then I put a picture of me, like because
- 35:50Speaker 1: it could put a picture of me with a Cuban cigar.
- 35:57Speaker 1: You should. Actually, that's a great feature, some cash money,
- 36:00Speaker 1: and then you could add you know, you can add
- 36:03Speaker 1: certain things. We should do that in the app, Like
- 36:05Speaker 1: we should sort of give people like, oh my god.
- 36:10Speaker 1: You know. On Monday we did the podcast and I
- 36:14Speaker 1: had an epiphany that we could turn in this podcast
- 36:16Speaker 1: into musical. Today I'm thinking of features for the app. Yeah,
- 36:25Speaker 1: I like features for the app. That's a that's a
- 36:27Speaker 1: good let's go down that road more than the musical.
- 36:30Speaker 1: I'm a font of creativity. Nobody's going to write a
- 36:34Speaker 1: book about me. Scooch uh Green Bay, New England, Oinarly. Yeah,
- 36:52Speaker 1: great matchup when we're at minus six, so it opened seven.
- 36:56Speaker 1: So the money has been coming in on Green Bay.
- 36:58Speaker 1: Is that wise guy money? Uh? Yeah, that was because
- 37:03Speaker 1: the publics on the Patriots and uh, and they will
- 37:06Speaker 1: be right up until game time and Sunday night game
- 37:09Speaker 1: another high profile game. UM. I mean luckily the we'll
- 37:16Speaker 1: we'll get the Packers draw such a following that it
- 37:19Speaker 1: won't be as lopsided as some of the other matchups
- 37:21Speaker 1: we've seen, or like kind of like the Patriots bills, um,
- 37:24Speaker 1: at least with the Packers were it's a it's a
- 37:27Speaker 1: very live dog and the professional handicappers have already indicated that.
- 37:31Speaker 1: So it's not the worst thing needing the Packers especially,
- 37:34Speaker 1: it's just wondering how they're gonna respond after, um, the
- 37:37Speaker 1: way that they lost that game against uh, the Rams
- 37:41Speaker 1: last week and um just kind of the the internal
- 37:45Speaker 1: kind of fighting a little, all the the heat between
- 37:48Speaker 1: time Montgomery and coaching staff and Rogers and yeah yeah
- 37:55Speaker 1: fumble ones lose the ball, you are out yep. So
- 38:04Speaker 1: so how do they respond to that lost last week?
- 38:06Speaker 1: If they if it kind of drove him put a
- 38:09Speaker 1: little fire in the belly, Uh, then then I like
- 38:12Speaker 1: him as a six point dog even against the Patriots,
- 38:15Speaker 1: not that I would play them, because we know that
- 38:18Speaker 1: history kind of that. One of the things you would
- 38:20Speaker 1: like on the app is don't bet against Brady and Belichick. Right,
- 38:23Speaker 1: we do that if you ever went to the app,
- 38:26Speaker 1: it's just like a permanent banner. Read the story at
- 38:29Speaker 1: your own peril, but never bet against the Patriots. Yeah,
- 38:35Speaker 1: big red ex permanent condition. Yeah, it's like a feature.
- 38:39Speaker 1: Uh all right, last game, Dallas Cowboys. This is stupid.
- 38:46Speaker 1: You guys are dumb. This is the Cowboys. What are they?
- 38:49Speaker 1: Six and a half? Six point favorite with the Tennessee Titans.
- 38:52Speaker 1: Have you not learned your lesson? What are you doing? What?
- 38:57Speaker 1: How do you get that number? That is crazy? The
- 39:00Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans are going to cover this game. They might be,
- 39:03Speaker 1: they might win this game. So we opened four. By
- 39:07Speaker 1: the way you did, Yeah we got steamed on a Cowboys.
- 39:13Speaker 1: Get what I said? Then? Who steamed? You wise guys?
- 39:18Speaker 1: This is all professor professional play. So we're up to
- 39:22Speaker 1: six and a half. I hope there. I hope. I
- 39:23Speaker 1: hope you're right. I hope they did it to like
- 39:25Speaker 1: push the number up because they were really just excited
- 39:27Speaker 1: about the Titans that I hope you're right with that too,
- 39:32Speaker 1: because it's one of the few games that the public
- 39:36Speaker 1: and the sharp guys are on the same side. So
- 39:38Speaker 1: losing this one, especially with a Monday night game, especially
- 39:42Speaker 1: if it turns out to be a week like the
- 39:43Speaker 1: last two weeks were all the favorites win rolling into
- 39:46Speaker 1: the Monday night game, this one could get ugly real fast,
- 39:50Speaker 1: really fast. So we thought we made the right number.
- 39:53Speaker 1: And apparently from what you're saying, it's not the worst thing.
- 39:57Speaker 1: Needing the Titans plus plus the points you were gonna
- 40:00Speaker 1: want the Titans in this game. You're gonna want the
- 40:02Speaker 1: Titans a big time because they're gonna win this game. Well,
