- 1:03out We'll be using it all season long all year
- 1:06long to bet on college basketball NFL NBA and
- 1:11the NHL so Getting right to it We're going over
- 1:17the Thanksgiving Day games and the Black Friday
- 1:20game, so that's kind of it and then we will have
- 1:25the the regular Sunday and Monday slate. That's
- 1:28going to come out on Friday. So, well, let's
- 1:31get into it. Gentlemen, I forgot to look at my
- 1:37record, but I did only win two bets. Not good.
- 1:42Not great at all. But I did end up betting a
- 1:49Tetaroah Macmillan. TD so that made up for the
- 1:53Monday night loss as well. So That's all I got
- 1:59I'm not I'm not dwelling on it right now so Doesn't
- 2:05to complain about I guess well, I mean, I guess
- 2:07I can't complain whatever Chris. How did you
- 2:09read go? Not great went five five and one Lost
- 2:18my sure fire. There's just not a great week.
- 2:21If I'm being perfectly honest, I've been sick
- 2:24the last two days. So that's fun. But bright
- 2:28side feast week is one of the best weeks of the
- 2:31year to be sick because you can just watch lay
- 2:33on the couch and watch college football or college
- 2:34basketball from 10am to midnight. So there's
- 2:40that. But yeah, NFL wise was not great. I mean,
- 2:43the Panthers were just never in it. Yeah, Baker
- 2:48going down. I mean, they were already dead pretty
- 2:51much, but Baker going down. Like I, I fell asleep
- 2:55watching the Sunday night game. There is 21 nothing
- 2:58already. So like, whatever this game's over,
- 3:00wake up like an hour later and Teddy Bridgewater
- 3:03said, Oh, what, this is bad. Like what is happening?
- 3:07And then they like two seconds later, Baker's
- 3:09on the sideline in a sling. So like, okay, this
- 3:11is definitely cooked. That pretty much summed
- 3:13up my night or my weekend. But yeah, excited
- 3:17for Thanksgiving. I mean, this is the perfect
- 3:20time of year to just make it all back in a matter
- 3:23of two days. So it's awesome. So ready to get
- 3:26into it. Sean, how'd you do? Bad. Very bad. Cowboys.
- 3:37Triple unit though. That was awesome. I did switch
- 3:41my pick over. So thank you for that. You're welcome.
- 3:46I did end up winning Sunday night football, but
- 3:49before that, that Cowboys game was the only bet
- 3:53that I had that one. So yeah. And then I had
- 3:59been at the Falcons money line, which they were
- 4:03plus money. So I ended up going into Sunday night
- 4:07football, just I think like two and four, but
- 4:12triple unit saved my day. What else happened
- 4:20the Titans covered dude That was a fun Titans
- 4:26game it was it was really fun It was like the
- 4:33purpose of the loss. Yeah, it was like the perfect
- 4:36loss really fun. It gave me hope which I'm scared
- 4:40of Whatever Anyway, well that's out of our control
- 4:49but but moving on we are moving on to the Thanksgiving
- 4:54Day games The first game Packers at the Lions
- 4:59Lions are favored by two and a half over under
- 5:01is 48 and a half the Lions They It's weird to
- 5:08say that they struggled against the Giants, but
- 5:10they kind of did in a game that had over a thousand
- 5:14yards of combined offense Between the two of
- 5:18the teams, but they did pull it out and the Packers
- 5:22kind of I guess you would say exposed to the
- 5:27Vikings not that they were a Good team, but but
- 5:32they they they showed up and they showed it out.
- 5:35So Begs the question. What's what's what's the
- 5:39play here in this in this this NFC North matchup?
- 5:42I I'll go first I'm I'm taking the Lions It's
- 5:47as simple as that. It feels like the past Four
- 5:52-ish years as the Lions have like come into their
- 5:55own. They are Exacting revenge on the NFL for
- 6:01all those years that they have these Thanksgiving
- 6:03Day games and they've lost like all of them And
- 6:07I just feel like they're they're gonna need a
- 6:09bounce back From I mean from what they clearly
- 6:13should have been a clear shit pumping against
- 6:17the New York Giants. I think this is a bounce
- 6:21back, if you will, a bounce back from a win,
- 6:24but a struggle, if you will. But that's what
- 6:28I got. I don't have any fancy stats to back that
- 6:31up. Chris, what do you have? I'm on the Lions
- 6:34as well. Green Bay has won seven games. I still
- 6:40don't know if they're a good football team or
- 6:42not. Like look at, I mean, other than Pittsburgh
- 6:45who is good, but it's been up and down and then
- 6:49Detroit week one, every team they've beat is
- 6:52just, is bad. And they've lost a couple of stinkers
- 6:54in there too, to the Browns and Panthers. So
- 6:56I don't really have a strong opinion on them.
- 7:01If they're good, the Lions are a good team. They've
- 7:03kind of been up and down last few weeks. I think
- 7:06they, it is weird to say it would be a bounce
- 7:09back spot, but it kind of is, you're right. Yeah,
- 7:11I think they, I think they take care of business
- 7:13against Green Bay. Green Bay has been terrible
- 7:15on the road this season. They are, let's see.
- 7:19Oh yeah, they are one in, not even this season,
- 7:21go back to last season, they're one in six against
- 7:22the spread in their last seven road games. So
- 7:25that's yucky. And also Detroit, spread wise,
- 7:28Detroit has owned this matchup for a long time.
- 7:30They're 12 and five against the spread in the
- 7:32last 17. So I know a lot of those were probably
- 7:35Detroit covering some big spreads years ago,
- 7:38but. They've still managed to cover most most
- 7:41of the games lately, so I'm taking lines with
- 7:43us tonight. I think they're much to much better
- 7:45team. Sean, do we have a sweet? Kind of. I like
- 7:51the mindset of taking the lines here, which I
- 7:55I'm going with the over, but lions have been
- 7:59pretty historically bad on Thanksgiving, so I
- 8:02don't I don't really want to pull the trigger
- 8:03on the lines, but. I just say let these two duke
- 8:07it out. Lions are averaging 34 points per game
- 8:11at home this season. I like to see the Packers
- 8:15get involved. They combined for 65 points earlier
- 8:20this season, so just run it up. Just run it up
- 8:25over 48 and a half. OK, yes, this this game is
- 8:30poised to be. Quite good, hopefully. Next, we
- 8:36have the afternoon nap game of the Thanksgiving
- 8:42Day slate. It's just the time that it's placed
- 8:47in. I might be snoozing on the couch during this
- 8:52game The the Chiefs are playing the Cowboys in
- 8:56Jerry's world. The Cowboys are home dogs by three
- 8:59and a half points The Cowboys coming off a miraculous.
- 9:03I don't know. I don't even know if you would
- 9:04say miraculous If you if you take into account
- 9:07all the all the stats that that Sean showcased
- 9:11in last week's episode He saw that written in
- 9:15the stars Yes, it was written in the stars. And
- 9:18then the Chiefs failed to cover three and a half
- 9:21against the Colts, but quite a gutsy win by them.
- 9:25They needed to keep winning in order to stay
- 9:28in the in the playoff hunt. So good for them,
- 9:31I guess. But Cowboys are home dogs by three and
- 9:35a half and the over under is 52 and a half. Chris,
- 9:39what do you think about this game? I hate to
- 9:42do it because it's a Cowboys. home game, uh,
- 9:47but under 52 and a half. This is too many damn
- 9:50points for a game being played by the chiefs
- 9:54in 2025. They just don't have it. Like, I mean,
- 9:58don't know if you can say they don't have it
- 10:00because they are winning football games, but
- 10:01they just, they're kind of like the Eagles. They're
- 10:03just kind of just go into a shell on offense.
- 10:07Let your defense kind of do the heavy lifting
- 10:08and go from there. I mean, cream hunt ran the
- 10:10ball 30 times last week. That's crazy. Like,
- 10:17this is crazy. Like, this isn't fucking like,
- 10:20I don't even know if Saquon last year ran the
- 10:22ball, like 30 times and I'm pretty sure he did
- 10:24at some point. But like, Cream Hunt is just,
- 10:27he's also just not a very good running back.
- 10:28Like he's fine, but he's not like a, all right,
- 10:31let's give it to him every single play. So I
- 10:34just think their offense is just kind of a shell
- 10:36of what it's been in years past. I mean, the
- 10:38under is eight and three in Chiefs games this
- 10:40season. And Dallas's defense has looked better
- 10:43last couple of weeks, um, aside from the first
- 10:45two quarters against Philly. I mean, they dominated
- 10:47that second half. So I think the defense is kind
- 10:52of rounding into form. Um, yeah, let's take a
- 10:57nap and wake up in this game was 24 20. I love
- 11:01it. Under 52 and a half. Um, well, what do you
- 11:05think? I'm also on the under this afternoon nap
- 11:09game of I mean, when I think about this time
- 11:14slot of Thanksgiving in these series of games,
- 11:19it feels like the afternoon game is a stinker.
- 11:24I have no stats to back this up, just vibes.
- 11:28But that being said, it does feel like the Chiefs,
- 11:32they've put it together on defense. They have
- 11:35a good defense. And the Cowboys have been getting
- 11:39better. And it's it's just gonna be like I Think
- 11:45that Dallas will score their points and I think
- 11:49that if the Chiefs want to stay in the game,
- 11:51they have to play good defense and Pull something
- 11:55out on offense but in order to when you got to
- 11:59stop them, so I think I think the under 52 and
- 12:02a half is Is the play here Sean? What do you
- 12:05think? Thanksgiving always gets a little stressful
- 12:10around my household around 3 34 o 'clock when
- 12:13the Cowboys are on Because you have you guys
- 12:17know my dad's Cowboys fan, so They just always
- 12:21struggle on Thanksgiving I'm gonna take the Chiefs
- 12:26first half minus one and a half I'm just gonna
- 12:31give a little breathing room to it. Just like
- 12:34I'm with you for the rest of this And also, if
- 12:37I want to take a nap, I only have to watch the
- 12:40first half of the game. So, yeah, just giving
- 12:44us a little breathing room. Chief's first half,
- 12:47minus one and a half. Okay. Is this also to avoid
- 12:51putting money on the Chief's full game? See,
- 12:56I thought you wouldn't know this, but... You've
- 13:00mentioned it. You were a Simes. I know. I thought
- 13:02you wouldn't know this. I thought I could just
- 13:05slick on by... But yeah, it was kind of a thought
- 13:08process behind that too. Fair, fair. Uh, nothing
- 13:13wrong with that. Uh, next game, the night game
- 13:16in the Thanksgiving day slate, uh, it's the bangles
- 13:20at the Ravens. The Ravens are seven point favorites,
- 13:25um, against the Joe Flacco led bangles. Uh, the
- 13:29over -under is 52 and a half. Um, The Bengals
- 13:34it feels like old man Joe is is is slowly maybe
- 13:38going back into form of just not being too great
- 13:43but also Forgot, I mean we mentioned it on the
- 13:48show last week when we were taking the over in
- 13:50the Bengals Pats game Jamar chase didn't play
- 13:54in that game. They didn't have their number one
- 13:56wide receiver. So that being said What what do
- 14:01you think about this game Sean? Well, I think
- 14:05Joe burrow is gonna start I Don't young man.
- 14:08Oh, I know you shouldn't know but I think he's
- 14:12going to yeah. I think that's pretty much confirmed
- 14:15Yeah, oh Just so you know, okay But I'm gonna
- 14:23go with the under under 51 and a half divisional
- 14:26game If Joe Burrow comes out, he's going to be
- 14:29slow. I don't know. The Ravens kind of scared
- 14:34me a little bit just since his defense, but I
- 14:38don't know. I did find a little stat about unders
- 14:41on the Thanksgiving night game. They are 12 and
- 14:446 since 2006, and 7 and 2 when the total is higher
- 14:50than 44 and a half. So give me the under. Chris,
- 14:55what you got? Sorry, I was watching the end of
- 14:59the ball this game. Houston just lofted up a
- 15:00buzzer beater, but missed it. So falls one. Um,
- 15:04I'm also, I'm also on the under 51 and a half.
- 15:07Um, for everything you said about Joe burrow,
- 15:08uh, I think he's going to be slow coming back.
- 15:10We've seen that before with him coming back from
- 15:12injury takes him a few games to kind of get back
- 15:14into form. Also Baltimore's Baltimore's defense
- 15:16has been playing a lot better, especially compared
- 15:18to how they started the season. I think they're
- 15:20getting some guys back. They're getting healthy.
- 15:23Um, Baltimore's offense. I mean, it's kind of
- 15:26hit or miss. I mean, I know since his defense
- 15:28is terrible, but I mean, so is New York's and
- 15:31they just owned the 23 points. So I just don't
- 15:35know. I don't have a whole lot of faith in either
- 15:37offense. So, yeah. And also, like you said, late
- 15:40season divisional game is usually kind of tight,
- 15:42especially in this division. So, yeah, under
- 15:4451 and a half. Hate two unders on Thanksgiving,
- 15:49but rocking with it. Will, what you got? I'm
- 15:53also on the under. Did not know that Joe burrow
- 15:56was playing but it bodes into my favor My mindset
- 16:02was like old man Flacco is kind of Moving back
- 16:07into form where he just throws a lot of interceptions
- 16:09like a really bad. He threw a really bad one
- 16:11last week I don't know if you guys saw that one.
- 16:13That was that was awful. You could see that guy
- 16:16a mile away but anyway, and Baltimore's DS is
- 16:21good and it is pretty hit or miss on offense.
- 16:25So I don't really have anything to add to that.
- 16:28But but all right. Under 52 and a half. Also,
- 16:32I believe T Higgins is out. Good to know. Good
- 16:38to know. Even even better. Yes. All right. Last
- 16:43game of the of the episode, the Bears at the
- 16:47Eagles. The Eagles are favored by seven points.
- 16:50The over under is forty four and a half. The
- 16:55Bears, they played the Steelers last week. They
- 17:02pulled out the win there. Pretty wild stuff by
- 17:05the Bears. It kind of just feels like it's all
- 17:10going to crumble at some point. Just speaking
- 17:14for me. And the Eagles, it kind of feels like
- 17:19the Eagles shouldn't really be... Favored by
- 17:23seven points to anyone. I mean they'll they'll
- 17:27win but like Not convincingly at least these
- 17:32days And I kind of hate this pick but I'm taking
- 17:37the Bears Bears plus seven. It's a lot of points
- 17:40It does kind of feel like maybe this is like
- 17:44a get -right game for the Eagles and they just
- 17:46Take a shit on them. But at the same time, it's
- 17:49like I mean What have you done for me lately?
- 17:53And so I'm taking the Bears. I'm taking the Bears
- 17:55plus seven. That's a lot of points. The Eagles
- 17:57could pull this out and win, but it's not going
- 18:00to be convincing. It's not going to be over a
- 18:02touchdown. So for that reason, I'm taking the
- 18:05Bears. Sean, what do you think? I need to hear
- 18:10from Chris. I don't know anything about this
- 18:12game, or like I do, but like I don't know what
- 18:15to think of it. I've never heard of the Chicago
- 18:17Bears. I've never heard. Are the Bears frauds
- 18:23or are they good or are the Eagles? Actually
- 18:26frauds. They just blew a 21 -nothing lead Bears
- 18:30have won five in a row now. They're eight and
- 18:33three like What universe are we living in? And
- 18:38also the Bears are seven a touchdown a dog Like
- 18:43an eight and three team is a touchdown dog to
- 18:46a team that just got blown out 21 -nothing Doesn't
- 18:51make any sense. I Don't like this game Chris.
- 18:54What do you what do you have? I mean, I agree
- 18:56with will again Bears plus seven. I just This
- 19:00is a rat line. It feels like but I how can you
- 19:03lay seven with the Eagles against anyone right
- 19:05now? They just they can't move the football Consistently
- 19:09at least They're just their offense. I don't
- 19:13know if it's broken or if it's just bad Like,
- 19:17and I like lay in seven, they have only beat
- 19:19one team by seven points this season. And that
- 19:21was the Giants game when Kim scattered his ankle
- 19:23exploded. So if he was healthy, who knows? I
- 19:27believe it was close when that happened. So,
- 19:30um, bears always found a way to be in games,
- 19:33especially late. I mean, so I think this is going
- 19:37to come down to the wire. So yeah, give me, give
- 19:39me the touchdown honestly with right now. Like
- 19:42I do not think the bears. I think they are fraudulent,
- 19:45but right now they're the better team. Like,
- 19:47I don't really think you can argue that. So yeah,
- 19:49give me the Bears plus seven. That help anything?
- 19:54Yeah. I was, I was thinking the bears cause that,
- 19:57that line is so crazy. That's such a crazy line
- 20:01to give us a full touchdown. Yeah. Give me the
- 20:04bears. The week we bet on them is going to be
- 20:09the week they just fumble everything. It's because
- 20:13it's the Bears It's weird It's like I don't even
- 20:18think that they're fraudulent, but I don't think
- 20:20they're like good either like it's it's it's
- 20:24a weird it's a weird spot that they're in it
- 20:27just feels like they're opportunistic and Then
- 20:31their kickers just like winning all these games
- 20:33for I wish good for him, you know Yeah, I don't
- 20:38need to win the game lose my field goal for I'll
- 20:40give a fuck And like It's it's weird it's it's
- 20:49It's like you play who you play. It's like it's
- 20:52like the Patriots right now like they're Like
- 20:56they're I mean they're ten and two they are a
- 20:59they're a good football team. They're cooked.
- 21:01They're coached really well But it's like they're
- 21:04their schedules fucking like cake like and But
- 21:08at the same time, it's like you play who you
- 21:10play man. So it it is it's it's a it's a weird
- 21:15spot like Normally fraud teams don't really come
- 21:19to fruition until You know the postseason or
- 21:23or even or close to closer to the postseason.
- 21:26So it's it's such a weird spot It's I don't know
- 21:30if you can call them frauds because these wins
- 21:32are unexpected so I don't know. I don't know
- 21:37if that makes sense. But that's just what I'm
- 21:39thinking. Well, all right, we have some we have
- 21:44some extra time here. Is there anything we want
- 21:46to like, I don't know, talk about? Y 'all been
- 21:53betting any college basketball feast week? Yes,
- 21:57like four games last week, and I lost all of
- 21:59them. So Don't know what what is feast week.
- 22:05I don't even know what that is It's the week
- 22:07of Thanksgiving when they have like a billion
- 22:09of these like random tournaments And there's
- 22:13a little yeah, they have like these NC like the
- 22:15malinvitational and now they have the players
- 22:17era festival Which I think is dumb, but whatever
- 22:20isn't that in like the Virgin Islands? No, that's
- 22:22in Las Vegas Okay, they had one the version.
- 22:25I forget what it's called. There's one of the
- 22:27Virgin Islands. That was like early I've been
- 22:31betting on them. I've been. OK, I am up. 25 units
- 22:39from college basketball. How did you do it Sean?
- 22:46From from yesterday and today. Oh. All I've been
- 22:51doing is betting first half unders. I mean, yeah,
- 22:56it's a great sense. It's a great strategy for
- 23:00this week. I mean, they're playing in like weird
- 23:03ass gyms or just different arenas. So yeah, that's
- 23:07not bad. That's not bad. Oh, clearly it's great.
- 23:12It's really great because I've been also like
- 23:16parlaying like the alternate odds. I'll just
- 23:20get like the highest first half under I can find
- 23:24and parlay like three of them to get them to
- 23:26like plus 100. Interesting. Yeah Super it's it's
- 23:32an infinite money glitch Like legit start doing
- 23:36that tomorrow Yeah, it worked really well in
- 23:40like the first round and then today of the all
- 23:45these tournaments and stuff, but Yeah, all these
- 23:49players they just get like they can't they've
- 23:51got to get like adjusted to these like new courts
- 23:54and like opponents they would never play Probably
- 23:59ever again. Yeah, it's random ass schools So
- 24:04It's been pretty cool and pretty awesome But
- 24:10yeah, well, so for example Stony Brook and Bethune
