Latest / WiseKracks / NFL Week 7 Best Bets + $100K Survivor Disaster & Circa VP Mike Palm Joins WiseKracks!
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Hey guys, welcome back to Wisecracks. Bill Krakenberger, John Orlando,
- 0:03Speaker 1: over here at Fabulous Circa. Getting ready to start a
- 0:07Speaker 1: lot of subject matter here, boy. I'm hoping we don't
- 0:10Speaker 1: have to cut anything. Let's start out with a giant,
- 0:14Speaker 1: giant subject that involves the Circa contest. And I just
- 0:18Speaker 1: asked John if he knows about it, like everyone else
- 0:20Speaker 1: knows about it. Of course, our producer, J.H., and everyone
- 0:23Speaker 1: else knows about it. So, John, just what happens, I
- 0:26Speaker 1: was on VEASAN. The Thursday before this happened, so 48
- 0:31Speaker 1: hours before this happened, I was on Visa, and no
- 0:33Speaker 1: one's ever really approached this subject. And I talked about
- 0:37Speaker 1: last season, there was only a couple hundred people left,
- 0:39Speaker 1: and there was one of the proxies forgot to put
- 0:41Speaker 1: someone's pick in.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 0:43Speaker 1: And he was so nice about it, though. He got
- 0:45Speaker 1: knocked out a couple weeks later. He got knocked out
- 0:47Speaker 1: two weeks later. But he's like, yeah, it was bad.
- 0:49Speaker 1: And they gave him $ 1, 000, his $ 1, 000, the entry for
- 0:50Speaker 1: next year. So he actually did profit by it, believe
- 0:56Speaker 1: it or not, in a free roll. But it was
- 0:58Speaker 1: a mistake. He got a proxy made. I see where
- 1:00Speaker 1: this is headed already. It happened on the biggest stage.
- 1:04Speaker 1: It happened in the grandissimo. Last year. No, last week.
- 1:07Speaker 1: Last week. The $ 100, 000 entry contest. One of the proxies
- 1:13Speaker 1: did not put, there was only 15 people left, did
- 1:15Speaker 1: not put one of the picks in, which the implied
- 1:17Speaker 1: value was $ 550, 000 because there was only 15 left. Started
- 1:20Speaker 1: with 77,000. It means $ 7. 7 million divided by 15. It's unbelievable,
- 1:28Speaker 1: over half a million dollars. You didn't hear about it
- 1:31Speaker 1: at all? No, I didn't. I mean, not for nothing,
- 1:33Speaker 1: but John's not. Sometimes he's in the sports betting space,
- 1:36Speaker 1: but in between the trips to the strip club, blow
- 1:39Speaker 1: and hookers, at least you got to know about it after.
- 1:42Speaker 1: I mean, it is what it is.
- 1:44Speaker 2: And who would have won? The guy would have won?
- 1:47Speaker 1: Actually, it's funny you say that. He actually would have lost.
- 1:50Speaker 1: The Rams he had.
- 1:52Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
- 1:52Speaker 1: So he had the Rams. Biggest favorite on the board.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Knocked out a ton of people.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Minus 600, right?
- 1:59Speaker 1: John knows those big favorites because he throws them in
- 2:01Speaker 1: his parlays. That's an easy thing. Just throw it in there.
- 2:06Speaker 1: It's no big deal.
- 2:07Speaker 2: Bill, I gave out a winning three-teamer. It's on Instagram.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Browns Moneyline.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Come on.
- 2:16Speaker 2: Chiefs.
- 2:17Speaker 1: We're not going to promote parlays, are we?
- 2:18Speaker 2: I'm just saying.
- 2:20Speaker 1: OK.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Brown's money line I had. Everyone made fun of me
- 2:22Speaker 2: last week until, until.
- 2:25Speaker 1: OK.
- 2:26Speaker 2: No credit on Brown's money line. I get nothing.
- 2:28Speaker 1: What were they? They were a three-point underdog.
- 2:31Speaker 2: Plus 174 money line.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Hey. All right. You're betting parlays. John, you know me.
- 2:36Speaker 1: It's funny that you talk about that. It is funny
- 2:39Speaker 1: you talk about that. So I had a buddy of mine.
- 2:42Speaker 1: I wrote down the notes for VEASAN tomorrow, but I'm
- 2:45Speaker 1: going to talk about it now. So there's these big sites.
- 2:49Speaker 1: These big prediction markets and stuff. Yeah, the big sites
- 2:55Speaker 1: like that. And it's amazing. A friend of mine is
- 2:59Speaker 1: seeding some offers on there. It's a legal site. I
- 3:02Speaker 1: think it's ProfitX, though.
- 3:04Speaker 2: ProfitX?
- 3:04Speaker 1: I hope I got the right name. Anyway, we don't
- 3:07Speaker 1: have them here in Nevada, so I don't have them.
- 3:10Speaker 1: You wouldn't believe how much money he's making. This guy
- 3:14Speaker 1: was a professional sports bettor. Now he's just seeding parlays
- 3:19Speaker 1: he's trying to get all the money he can get
- 3:20Speaker 1: and he has a lot of money but he's trying
- 3:21Speaker 1: to get more he said this is the easiest money
- 3:24Speaker 1: he's ever made putting up parlays with a player prop
- 3:29Speaker 1: score first touchdown or a player prop everyone bets over
- 3:33Speaker 1: as he said he got four unders and 100 he
- 3:35Speaker 1: literally had 100 and some offers up got them all
- 3:38Speaker 1: filled like almost every one of them filled so in
- 3:40Speaker 1: other words he's the bookmaker you follow he's putting the
- 3:42Speaker 1: offer up and uh He's not even paying his 2%
- 3:46Speaker 1: fee right now. There's some kind of promotion going on
- 3:48Speaker 1: with whatever site he's using. I thought it was that site.
- 3:51Speaker 1: And then he's getting half a percent rebate, actually. Over
- 3:54Speaker 1: on touchdowns, multiple touchdowns. People bet multiple touchdowns in one game.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Do you know how many touchdowns there are in a game?
- 4:00Speaker 1: I mean, it's ridiculous to bet multiple players for touchdowns.
- 4:03Speaker 1: But people love it. LeBron, triple doubles. People love betting them.
- 4:09Speaker 1: What's he going to have? Two or three? Three or
- 4:11Speaker 1: maybe four? I mean, do you want to see, like,
- 4:13Speaker 1: It's just crazy. Triple doubles are like 10 to 1, too.
- 4:16Speaker 1: True odds is like 25 to 1 or something. It's ridiculous.
- 4:20Speaker 1: 20 to 1. It's funny. The Italian mob, I laughed
- 4:25Speaker 1: at this because people say, oh, you know, oh, it's
- 4:28Speaker 1: just pennies and $ 5. By the way, his offers that
- 4:31Speaker 1: he's putting up are as little as a dollar. 97 cents.
- 4:35Speaker 1: So he had 97 cent parlay to win $ 10. Like,
- 4:38Speaker 1: you know, you're a level. But yeah, so he literally...
- 4:44Speaker 1: Said to me, though, I don't want to say the amount,
- 4:47Speaker 1: but it's a stupid amount of money he has made
- 4:49Speaker 1: in five weeks. Stupid. Really? I mean, he's made, I
- 4:52Speaker 1: can't believe the money he's made. Much more than he
- 4:55Speaker 1: can make betting sports, even with his six-figure bankroll. So, yeah, like,
- 5:01Speaker 1: it reminded me of, boy, there was a guy, Sam Giacana.
- 5:05Speaker 1: Sam Giacana was in jail. He was the notorious head
- 5:08Speaker 1: of the Chicago mob. He was in jail with a
- 5:13Speaker 1: black gentleman who was in charge of policy in Chicago,
- 5:16Speaker 1: which his number was running. And Sam Jay kind of
- 5:19Speaker 1: laughed at him, you know? Yeah. Yeah, it's little pennies
- 5:22Speaker 1: and nickels. It literally was, this is in the 50s,
- 5:25Speaker 1: and it's like five cents, tickets, give me a six,
- 5:29Speaker 1: you know. I forget what they even call it, an
- 5:32Speaker 1: action number, like a round robin of your number. Let's
- 5:35Speaker 1: say you pick 012. Yeah. And you bet it like
- 5:38Speaker 1: a round robin, 0-1-2, 1-0-2, 2-0-1.
- 5:41Speaker 3: Yep.
- 5:41Speaker 1: So he left, 5 cents, 10 cents. By the time
- 5:46Speaker 1: he got to be friends with this guy, I'm going
- 5:47Speaker 1: to get his name for Visa tomorrow. This guy was
- 5:51Speaker 1: a multimillionaire back then.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Really?
- 5:53Speaker 1: Writing 5 cents and 10 cent tickets. So it just
- 5:58Speaker 1: happens that the Chicago mob winds up telling him he's
- 6:00Speaker 1: got to get out of town. They were going to
- 6:02Speaker 1: kidnap him. And the Italians took it over, you know?
- 6:04Speaker 4: But.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Because you would think the little pennies mean nothing, but
- 6:09Speaker 1: look at the money that we're talking about here. So
- 6:13Speaker 1: it kind of made me just think about what's going
- 6:17Speaker 1: on out there. This is on a small site. What's
- 6:20Speaker 1: going on on the big sites that hold 30% of
- 6:22Speaker 1: the market share back east? Oh, yeah, what's going on?
- 6:26Speaker 1: How much money are they making? I can imagine the
- 6:30Speaker 1: people betting their little parlays and stuff. And no matter
- 6:33Speaker 1: what I say, even though I have a reach, I do.
- 6:36Speaker 1: On a good month, I'll get 10 to 20 million
- 6:39Speaker 1: across my socials, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok. But I only reach,
- 6:45Speaker 1: you know, let's say I reach a million people or whatever.
- 6:48Speaker 1: That's a little grain of sand on a beach of
- 6:51Speaker 1: the actual bettors that are betting these parlays everywhere. So
- 6:55Speaker 1: I try to— Yeah, but.
- 6:57Speaker 2: You know, it's like telling a smoker, quit smoking, it's
- 6:59Speaker 2: bad for you.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Okay, that's very fair.
- 7:02Speaker 2: They know it's bad for them.
- 7:03Speaker 1: That's excellent. That's an excellent parallel. They know it's bad
- 7:05Speaker 1: for them. Like, even me sitting next to someone like yourself, though,
- 7:09Speaker 1: and I'm not making fun of you, though.
- 7:10Speaker 2: No, I know you're not.
- 7:10Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. People are so obsessed with parlays. Yeah.
- 7:13Speaker 1: I could tell you all the reasons why not to
- 7:15Speaker 1: bet them, and you would say, I got to run
- 7:18Speaker 1: to the restroom and go bet one. Yeah. No, it's crazy.
- 7:22Speaker 1: It's crazy. And, yeah, I think it's absolutely crazy. But...
- 7:30Speaker 1: That's something here. Let's break for a second. Let me
- 7:32Speaker 1: get Mike Palm on here. Is that Mike Palm? All right,
- 7:34Speaker 1: I brought Mike Palm on. Boss of bosses here. So
- 7:37Speaker 1: I brought him on because guess what? Giant promotion at
- 7:41Speaker 1: Circa I seen yesterday. And I actually text Mike. I said, Mike,
- 7:45Speaker 1: is this real? Are you guys like... I just... I
- 7:48Speaker 1: thought you guys had... Everyone wants to bet at Circa.
- 7:50Speaker 1: I didn't think you need the business. But this is
- 7:52Speaker 1: a great promotion. Maybe you explain it to people. It's
- 7:55Speaker 1: for locals.
- 7:55Speaker 5: Yeah, it's for locals. So it's called American 250. Now,
- 7:58Speaker 5: we've done this in Missouri... in Illinois, in Kentucky, in Iowa,
- 8:02Speaker 5: and in Colorado in our remote states. And we said,
- 8:04Speaker 5: you know what? We want to do it in Nevada
- 8:07Speaker 5: as well. So it's for folks that have never had
- 8:09Speaker 5: a Circa Sports app account before. So even if you've
- 8:13Speaker 5: wagered at Circa, but you didn't have an app account,
- 8:15Speaker 5: you just wagered over the counter, you're still eligible for this.
- 8:18Speaker 1: How about if you have a, you've been in one
- 8:20Speaker 1: of the contests, which means you have to get an
- 8:22Speaker 1: account or no? No. No.
- 8:23Speaker 5: Wagering that you have you if you've never okay let
- 8:26Speaker 5: me explain it this way you've never deposited and wagered
- 8:29Speaker 5: in our account so even if you were a contest
- 8:31Speaker 5: player now you must have a state of Nevada ID
- 8:33Speaker 5: because it's for Nevada residents but here's the thing and
- 8:36Speaker 5: it started yesterday and it goes through Super Bowl you
- 8:39Speaker 5: put 250 into your account and you bet through it
- 8:42Speaker 5: now the only stipulation is it's a minus 200 or
- 8:45Speaker 5: less favorite right so either minus 200 down to Point
- 8:48Speaker 5: spread is never going to come into effect.
- 8:49Speaker 1: Okay.
- 8:50Speaker 2: You wager the $ 250.
- 8:51Speaker 5: Regardless of the outcome, within 24 hours, we'll put $ 250
- 8:54Speaker 5: into your account.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Not promo.
- 8:56Speaker 6: Not promo bets.
- 8:57Speaker 1: $ 250 cash. Real cash. Real cash. Because a lot of
- 8:59Speaker 1: places do promo bets, so they release it in increments.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Yours is one shot.
- 9:04Speaker 5: Deposit $ 250, bet $ 250, get $ 250.
- 9:06Speaker 1: Very simple. That's great. That's great. No, it's absolutely great.
- 9:10Speaker 1: I wanted to bring Mike on to talk about it,
- 9:12Speaker 1: and we're going to get that out there for you. Thanks, Bill.
- 9:14Speaker 1: That's it. Thank you. Good deal. Okay, John, usually I
- 9:18Speaker 1: don't talk about these kind of things. The original Cocaine Cowboys,
- 9:22Speaker 1: the original one, I thought was fantastic. Great. And now
- 9:29Speaker 1: it's coming out on YouTube in 23 days. Is it YouTube? Yeah,
- 9:33Speaker 1: worldwide on YouTube, November 13th, Cocaine Cowboys movie.
- 9:37Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
- 9:38Speaker 1: And I hate AI. I can't stand it. But this
- 9:42Speaker 1: is taking all the real people and bringing them back
- 9:47Speaker 1: to make them look younger. And that's the preview I've
- 9:50Speaker 1: seen for Cocaine Cowboys. I thought it was so cool.
- 9:53Speaker 1: I love the original thing. As you can see there,
- 9:57Speaker 1: you can just go to R-A-K-O-N-T R-A-K-O-N-T-U-R dot com and
- 10:03Speaker 1: see the preview and what they did. That's the original guys.
- 10:07Speaker 1: They brought them all back. They're all dead. Most of
- 10:10Speaker 1: them are dead. I think Mickey Monday's not the The
- 10:12Speaker 1: airplane driver.
- 10:14Speaker 2: That's amazing.
- 10:15Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. And they made them all. That's the real
- 10:18Speaker 1: Mickey Monday.
- 10:18Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 10:19Speaker 1: But they made them all look young again. And they
- 10:21Speaker 1: made a movie of it with AI. I mean, yeah,
- 10:23Speaker 1: really cool, right? That's very cool. That's just a personal thing.
- 10:27Speaker 1: I just thought it was so cool how they built
- 10:28Speaker 1: Miami and stuff back then. You know, you guys know me.
- 10:31Speaker 2: You just reminded me.
- 10:31Speaker 1: I'm against drugs. There's another.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Another Rocky movie coming out. Have you seen this?
- 10:36Speaker 1: Yeah. The making of Rocky. Sounds great.
- 10:38Speaker 2: Incredible. That guy's voice.
- 10:41Speaker 1: Sounds like Stallone. Yeah. Is Stallone involved in that?
- 10:45Speaker 2: I don't know. Brian Hopkins showed me the trailer the
- 10:48Speaker 2: other day.
- 10:49Speaker 1: You're Johnny Hollywood. You know that stuff. Okay. I have
- 10:52Speaker 1: too many things to go over. I have to skip some.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Let me skip a few, actually. Let's go to the
- 10:58Speaker 1: shows here.
- 10:59Speaker 3: Okay.
- 11:00Speaker 1: I see Motley Crue announced a residency at the Coliseum.
- 11:04Speaker 1: So they're coming in for eight more shows. Yeah. I
- 11:07Speaker 1: went to the retirement concert 15 years ago. Then I
- 11:10Speaker 1: went to another retirement concert seven years ago.
- 11:12Speaker 2: And now there's a residency.
- 11:13Speaker 1: And now there's a residency. I actually got backstage. My
- 11:16Speaker 1: wife loves them kind of group. And they were so nice,
- 11:19Speaker 1: those guys.
- 11:20Speaker 2: Tommy Lee is super nice.
- 11:21Speaker 1: Tommy Lee was real nice. Very nice. Vince Neil. Vince Neil.
- 11:25Speaker 1: Vince Neil, real nice. The other two guys, the original
- 11:27Speaker 1: band members, the other guys were really... Really nice guys.
- 11:30Speaker 1: The guitar player gave me a couple guitar picks. It's
- 11:34Speaker 1: a big band, man. Nikki Sixx. They were so nice.
- 11:39Speaker 1: But anyway, I've seen them a couple times backstage. They
- 11:42Speaker 1: were really cool. And I thought there was retirement. I
- 11:44Speaker 1: thought it would be a nice thing for my wife
- 11:45Speaker 1: to get. And now they're going back again. They're back.
- 11:48Speaker 1: It's hard. Terrorize me in the going again.
- 11:50Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm... Can I say?
- 11:52Speaker 1: I don't know. I'll just say.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Speaking of coming out of retirement... Tony O mentioned something.
- 11:59Speaker 4: Oh, good.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Because in the past, he's mentioned that he would not
- 12:04Speaker 1: do that.
- 12:04Speaker 2: He's like, I talked to him the other day.
- 12:06Speaker 1: He's like, I'm bored.
- 12:07Speaker 2: Wow.
- 12:09Speaker 1: Good, good, good. All right.
- 12:10Speaker 2: Don't be surprised.
- 12:11Speaker 1: Maybe a Tony O coming back.
- 12:12Speaker 2: If he's back out there.
- 12:13Speaker 1: All right.
- 12:14Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:16Speaker 1: So let me tell you who else is coming, though.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Alanis Morissette, who I like. Alanis Morissette. Sure. She's doing
- 12:21Speaker 1: a residency. Cyndi Lauper, also a residency.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Wow.
- 12:24Speaker 1: Cyndi Lauper at the same thing, Coliseum. Let me tell you.
- 12:28Speaker 1: I seen her open up for either Cher or someone,
- 12:31Speaker 1: I think it was Cher. Big voice. She was better
- 12:34Speaker 1: than Cher. She was in the audience, dancing around. And
- 12:37Speaker 1: by the way, it was at MGM, the giant building,
- 12:40Speaker 1: giant arena, and she was running around the audience. She
- 12:43Speaker 1: stole the show.
- 12:44Speaker 4: Listen to Cyndi Lauper's little part on We Are the World,
- 12:47Speaker 4: and you realize how good that girl can sing.
- 12:49Speaker 1: We Are the World. Perfect example. See, John adds things
- 12:51Speaker 1: to the show. But yeah, so also the Eagles have
- 12:55Speaker 1: a couple more dates here. Don Henley, Joel Walsh, Timothy V.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Schmidt over there.
- 12:59Speaker 2: Did you end up seeing Metallica or no?
- 13:01Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 13:02Speaker 2: Did you love it?
- 13:02Speaker 1: I had my earplugs in. I was the only one.
- 13:04Speaker 1: And my wife, you know, that's another thing, too.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Did you go multiple times by any chance?
- 13:09Speaker 1: She gets me pink friggin' things. I had to stand out,
- 13:13Speaker 1: you know?
- 13:14Speaker 4: I heard they did, like, at least opening weekend, they
- 13:17Speaker 4: did a different show every night.
- 13:19Speaker 2: Is that true?
- 13:19Speaker 1: They do a show on Thursday. They don't repeat any
- 13:22Speaker 1: of the songs on Saturday. That's how many songs they have. And,
- 13:26Speaker 1: you know, I knew four of the songs.
- 13:27Speaker 2: Smart, too, because it makes you go twice, right?
- 13:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I knew four songs. And I probably know two
- 13:31Speaker 1: more at the closing show. I went Thursday. And they
- 13:35Speaker 1: were good. They were good. Visually, it looked cool, too?
- 13:37Speaker 1: The next day, and I don't know this guy's name,
- 13:39Speaker 1: the guitar player I sat right next to at the
- 13:43Speaker 1: win at the coffee shop.
- 13:45Speaker 4: Really?
- 13:45Speaker 1: At the win. He was nice to everybody. And my wife,
- 13:48Speaker 1: of course, got so mad. Wait a minute. You didn't
- 13:51Speaker 1: get the picture with him? I said, no. He was
- 13:53Speaker 1: taking pictures with people, but I didn't know who he
- 13:55Speaker 1: was because he had his hair through a, Baseball Hat.
- 13:58Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 13:59Speaker 1: But I wouldn't know who he was anyway. I know
- 14:00Speaker 1: the lead singer, what he looks like. I don't even
- 14:02Speaker 1: know the lead singer's name.
- 14:03Speaker 2: James Hatfield.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 14:05Speaker 2: Or Hetfield.
- 14:06Speaker 1: Hetfield and McCoy's. I should know that. And the guitar
- 14:09Speaker 1: player was like an original one from... He was there from...
- 14:14Speaker 1: This wasn't the bass player who joined a dozen years ago.
- 14:16Speaker 1: This was the original one. And he was very nice
- 14:18Speaker 1: to everyone. And I like what he said, Hatfield, what
- 14:23Speaker 1: he said at the concert. He said... You're not going
- 14:26Speaker 1: to get no politics from me here. I'm here to
- 14:27Speaker 1: entertain you guys. You're not going to get none of
- 14:30Speaker 1: that stuff. I love that. Because, you know, even though
- 14:33Speaker 1: I'm a Springsteen fan and I like the old Bon
- 14:36Speaker 1: Jovi and stuff, these guys can't shut their mouths. Just
- 14:39Speaker 1: be a performer. Just be a performer. I know. Either side,
- 14:45Speaker 1: whatever you're going to say about anything. You're going to
- 14:47Speaker 1: alienate people. Who wants to hear that? We're here to
- 14:50Speaker 1: hear you sing.
- 14:50Speaker 2: Right.
- 14:51Speaker 1: To be blunt, I went to go see Tom Jones,
- 14:53Speaker 1: and he joked around a little bit and got booed
- 14:56Speaker 1: when he joked around. I didn't expect Tom Jones.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Not when he went another time? Oh, wait.
- 15:00Speaker 1: You were there. You remember he mentioned something at the show?
- 15:03Speaker 1: That's right.
- 15:04Speaker 4: He did.
- 15:04Speaker 1: The guys we went with said, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's right. Oh, yeah. Yeah,
- 15:08Speaker 1: that's right. John was there with me. This is interesting.
- 15:12Speaker 1: This is so interesting, this subject. I'm tough on Atlantic City.
- 15:16Speaker 1: I really am. I watched the mayor of Atlantic City,
- 15:19Speaker 1: Marty Smalls. Marty Smalls, sorry. I watched him on a
- 15:26Speaker 1: podcast I thought was really good. I forget which one
- 15:29Speaker 1: it was, but he was on a show. Now he
- 15:31Speaker 1: did a second podcast rejecting. And the same thing, the
- 15:35Speaker 1: casino hub is unsafe. I've been tough on Atlantic City
- 15:39Speaker 1: because I was there a lot in the past. My friend,
- 15:42Speaker 1: my friend Craig, who passed away, I was always at
- 15:45Speaker 1: his apartment hanging out with him. Beautiful place overlooking the boardwalk.
- 15:48Speaker 1: We talked everywhere. We went all over the city. So
- 15:50Speaker 1: I was in Atlantic City. Remember my portion of this podcast.
- 15:54Speaker 1: was in Atlantic City at least six episodes a year,
- 15:57Speaker 1: maybe more.
- 15:57Speaker 6: More.
- 15:58Speaker 3: More.
- 15:58Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 15:58Speaker 2: Almost the whole football season.
- 16:02Speaker 1: The whole football season, because Atlantic City, New Jersey, was great.
- 16:04Speaker 2: For sports betting back then.
- 16:05Speaker 1: There was a lot of bonus season stuff, right? You're right.
- 16:07Speaker 1: That's like three months out of the season. You're right
- 16:09Speaker 1: about that in the beginning. So the Atlantic City mayor
- 16:13Speaker 1: pushed back against claims the resort town's gaming district is unsafe,
- 16:16Speaker 1: telling listeners on a syndicated show, The Breakfast Club, on Monday,
- 16:20Speaker 1: October 19th, The casino hub has never been safer or
- 16:24Speaker 1: better positioned for growth. So maybe he's right. I'd like
- 16:29Speaker 1: to go there. And he said people criticize Atlantic City
- 16:32Speaker 1: for not being clean and not being safe. The devil
- 16:35Speaker 1: is a liar. I don't know what that means, but
- 16:37Speaker 1: the devil is a liar. Now, I will tell you.
- 16:41Speaker 1: So there's Pacific Avenue, which goes right against the casinos.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Then Atlantic Avenue. And Atlantic Avenue was very unsafe last
- 16:48Speaker 1: time I was there. Maybe some of you guys can
- 16:51Speaker 1: let me know. I mean, that's the place they were
- 16:52Speaker 1: charging money to go in the Popeye's fried chicken. I mean,
- 16:55Speaker 1: you know, there was thugs all over the street trying
- 16:58Speaker 1: to do things. I mean, it's bad. It's bad. Yeah.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Did you put those people in jail? The potholes were
- 17:05Speaker 1: giant there along Atlantic Avenue. Is that all cleaned up? Maybe.
- 17:10Speaker 1: The boardwalk's safe? Everything's fine? Listen, he said something here
- 17:15Speaker 1: that murder is down 80%. That's unbelievable. That seems hard
- 17:19Speaker 1: to believe. It's great. That's fantastic. That wasn't true, right? Yeah,
- 17:24Speaker 1: down almost 80%. The mayor continued. Our police department.
- 17:27Speaker 2: That's amazing.
- 17:28Speaker 1: They only got one homicide this year. Crime at an
- 17:32Speaker 1: all-time low. So maybe I'm going to take a different
- 17:34Speaker 1: look at Atlantic City. I may be there in a
- 17:36Speaker 1: few weeks. Just specifically to address what I'm saying here.
- 17:40Speaker 1: The former Trump Plaza site, which the Atlantic City Expressway
- 17:44Speaker 1: leads out to Caesars and was Trump Plaza. That Trump
- 17:48Speaker 1: Plaza was torn down and it's just been left vacant
- 17:52Speaker 1: for years. That was just sold. He said, I'm not
- 17:55Speaker 1: going to mention their name, but one of the most
- 17:56Speaker 1: powerful people in the state of New Jersey... has purchased
- 17:59Speaker 1: that property. I can't name them. So in February 2021,
- 18:04Speaker 1: billionaire Carl Icahn, who owned that land, agreed with Marty
- 18:07Speaker 1: Small to demolish the former original site, and now it
- 18:12Speaker 1: was sold. So let's see what's going on in Atlantic City.
- 18:17Speaker 1: I'm interested to give them the, you know, give them
- 18:20Speaker 1: a fair review. I am. A little bit of a
- 18:23Speaker 1: responsible gambling angle here. You know, people want to, You
- 18:28Speaker 1: used to talk to your kids about sex and making
- 18:30Speaker 1: sure you don't do drugs and stuff. Now it's just
- 18:33Speaker 1: not about sex anymore. Parents are urged to address gambling.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Smart.
- 18:38Speaker 1: Yes. Gambling should be part of that. According to the
- 18:40Speaker 1: Harris Poll, 51% of parents with children aged 6 to
- 18:45Speaker 1: 17 have had a gambling talk, though 40% of those
- 18:48Speaker 1: who haven't said they plan to. So nearly three in
- 18:51Speaker 1: four dads express worry about their children gambling compared to
- 18:54Speaker 1: 40% of mothers, and you know what? I love this.
- 18:59Speaker 1: Thank the Lord. I really am. This should be talked about.
- 19:02Speaker 1: Kids are all talking about gambling now because it's so
- 19:05Speaker 1: fashionable with the advertisements on TV, at their ballparks.
- 19:09Speaker 2: You can't escape it. You turn on TV and you're.
- 19:11Speaker 1: Going to see it everywhere. I am so happy that
- 19:16Speaker 1: I'm hearing this. Like I said, New Jersey's very tough
- 19:22Speaker 1: on responsible gambling anyway. Matter of fact, they now require
- 19:27Speaker 1: online gambling operators to proactively identify problem gamblers, which I
- 19:31Speaker 1: think would be very hard to do. However, they are
- 19:36Speaker 1: tightening their grip because the iGaming, which I'm tough on
- 19:40Speaker 1: the iGaming, which that means is people playing slots at
- 19:42Speaker 1: home and stuff. The iGaming operators regularly analyze player data
- 19:47Speaker 1: and directly intervene when patrons display data. signs of problem gambling.
- 19:51Speaker 1: But I don't know if you could do that on
- 19:53Speaker 1: a small scale, John. I don't know if you could
- 19:54Speaker 1: take Joe Public at home losing 200 a night, which
- 19:57Speaker 1: is significant. I don't know if you could. How do
- 20:00Speaker 1: you monitor that? How do you KYC that? Know your customer.
- 20:04Speaker 1: But At least New Jersey continues to lead its way
- 20:06Speaker 1: in developing data-driven best practices for Internet gambling and online
- 20:11Speaker 1: sportsbook wagering, says Governor Shirell. We continue to work with
- 20:15Speaker 1: the online companies to make the world safer and focus
- 20:18Speaker 1: on safeguards that protect people's well-being and help connect people
- 20:22Speaker 1: who are struggling with the support they need. A lot
- 20:26Speaker 1: of this is stuff they have to say. But just
- 20:29Speaker 1: to see this, maybe take this approach compared to other states,
- 20:33Speaker 1: I really think this is fantastic that I see this.
- 20:36Speaker 1: In July, the Philadelphia Inquirer, they broke a story. One
- 20:43Speaker 1: of the FanDuel's executives who was exhibiting problem behavior betting
- 20:47Speaker 1: sent a personalized video message to his favorite MLB player,
- 20:52Speaker 1: Bryce Harper. So they have Bryce Harper sending– so they've
- 20:55Speaker 1: cut that kind of stuff out. Players saying, hey, what's
- 20:58Speaker 1: going on? Good to see you. You're cultivating his gambling addiction.
- 21:04Speaker 1: So the Responsible Gambling Outreach Initiative comes, as her office
- 21:09Speaker 1: is aware of that particular situation, and more aggressive marketing
- 21:13Speaker 1: or promotion tactics who target gamblers of exhibiting those signs
- 21:18Speaker 1: of a gambling disorder, let's call it. So I was
- 21:20Speaker 1: really happy to see that. And New Jersey, again, leading
- 21:25Speaker 1: the way again. Let's talk about this week's match. Matt
- 21:29Speaker 1: Chaprills talks about he sent over the Three Lake Parlay,
- 21:32Speaker 1: one of your kind of bets here, John. You just
- 21:34Speaker 1: talked about Three Lake Parlay. This was $ 20 to win 37-30.
- 21:38Speaker 1: That's one of your types.
- 21:39Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:40Speaker 1: 186-1. Let me give you the Tampa Bay 4-2, the
- 21:45Speaker 1: series correct score of Cleveland versus Tampa Bay. Got 5-1
- 21:49Speaker 1: on that. That part cashed. Now needs the Ohio State
- 21:53Speaker 1: Buckeyes to win the NCAA championship, which they can easily do.
- 21:57Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars to win the pro conference. The AFC conference winner.
- 22:03Speaker 1: I don't know, man. I've just seen them play a
- 22:04Speaker 1: couple times. They got lucky versus the Eagles. You see
- 22:07Speaker 1: what happened to them versus Houston. Granted, they were across
- 22:09Speaker 1: the pond. But because they won their first leg here, John,
- 22:13Speaker 1: the current bet offer over on WagerWire.com and the WagerWire app, $ 120. 00.
- 22:20Speaker 1: So their current cash out from the site, though, just
- 22:22Speaker 1: to show you the difference, current cash out is $ 39
- 22:27Speaker 1: from their website. Yeah, real nice of you. But instead, WagerWire,
- 22:32Speaker 1: it's $ 120, which gives you like $ 100. It gives you
- 22:35Speaker 1: exactly $ 100 profit. But I would definitely see what happens here.
- 22:40Speaker 1: Let's see if Jacksonville gets any better now that they
- 22:43Speaker 1: come over to the states here. And don't cash this
- 22:46Speaker 1: out just yet. Ohio State's doing well. You know, he
- 22:51Speaker 1: did get hurt. The quarterback did get hurt on Saturday.
- 22:53Speaker 1: But the market still has them co-favorites with Notre Dame.
- 22:57Speaker 1: So let's just– I would see what happens here. The
- 22:59Speaker 1: cash out is a joke. So if both Ohio State
- 23:03Speaker 1: and Jacksonville stay healthy and maybe stay on the current pace,
- 23:07Speaker 1: the ticket will be worth a couple hundred more dollars
- 23:10Speaker 1: at least by the end of the season, though. WagerWire.com
- 23:13Speaker 1: and the WagerWire app. All right, let's get into our
- 23:16Speaker 1: next subject. Like I said, I'm not going to be
- 23:17Speaker 1: able to talk about everything here. Okay, talked about the music,
- 23:21Speaker 1: talked about the mayor. I like that. How about this?
- 23:24Speaker 1: Talk about gambling. Oh, by the way, you know what
- 23:27Speaker 1: the mayor also said? Let me just pull that up
- 23:30Speaker 1: real quick. The mayor in Atlantic City said something I
- 23:32Speaker 1: thought was unbelievable. Mayor Small told the Breakfast Club that
- 23:37Speaker 1: municipality investments in safe technology are actively deterring crime across
- 23:41Speaker 1: the district. He specifically pointed to a $ 9 million municipal
- 23:46Speaker 1: contract with Axon to deploy acoustic gunshot detection systems with
- 23:52Speaker 1: automated drone technology. This is Marty's words. If a gunshot
- 23:57Speaker 1: is fired... We know the address instantly. And the drone
- 24:02Speaker 1: will get there before our officers get there and broadcast
- 24:05Speaker 1: it live. We have license plate readers so it doesn't
- 24:08Speaker 1: pay to commit crime in Atlantic City. The entire city
- 24:11Speaker 1: is under constant surveillance. I thought that was interesting. If
- 24:15Speaker 1: a gun fires, they will know.
- 24:18Speaker 2: Sounds amazing.
- 24:19Speaker 1: That's unbelievable. Just something I wanted to say. Listen, I'm
- 24:24Speaker 1: tough on AC, so I'm willing to give them a
- 24:26Speaker 1: little chance here. We'll see what happens. So how about this?
- 24:28Speaker 1: The Florida gambling... Another guy with sunglasses inside. Okay. We've
- 24:33Speaker 1: got a couple guys with sunglasses walking around with baseball
- 24:35Speaker 1: hats and sunglasses. I'm glad that we're in the circuit properties.
- 24:38Speaker 1: They've got their IDs and everything. Florida gambling helpline boss.
- 24:44Speaker 1: This is the guy that's in charge of the 800
- 24:47Speaker 1: number for compulsive gambling in Florida. He's the boss. Nobody higher.
- 24:54Speaker 1: He's jailed for stealing $ 1. 4 million in gambling. That's how
- 24:58Speaker 1: bad the addiction is. That's how bad. So this person,
- 25:01Speaker 1: a Florida gambling helpline director, stole $ 1. 4 million to feed
- 25:05Speaker 1: his own massive gambling habit. I'm sorry, his own massive
- 25:10Speaker 1: gambling habit. Was sentenced to 10 years in prison. Boy,
- 25:13Speaker 1: they're really making an example out of him. 10 years,
- 25:15Speaker 1: because how do you pay back the money if you're
- 25:17Speaker 1: in jail for 10 years? Although 43-year-old Phillip Lee Sullivan
- 25:21Speaker 1: has entered recovery and dedicated himself to helping others. His
- 25:24Speaker 1: past caught up with him on a Friday in a
- 25:26Speaker 1: Bay County courtroom. He's the chief financial officer of a
- 25:30Speaker 1: Panama City property management company. He pleaded no contest, six felonies,
- 25:36Speaker 1: sentenced to 118 months in jail. But he's also, like
- 25:41Speaker 1: I said, March 2025. This guy was 888 Admit It,
- 25:46Speaker 1: which is their Florida recovery program, gambling service here. He
- 25:51Speaker 1: is in charge of it. There's no one higher. He's
- 25:54Speaker 1: the guy that was the boss.
- 25:54Speaker 2: It's crazy.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Wow. Let me get to one thing here. This is
- 26:02Speaker 1: Las Vegas, baby. The officials identify the body found in
- 26:06Speaker 1: a barrel. Oh, I saw this. Clark County officials Thursday
- 26:11Speaker 1: released the identity of a murder victim found inside a
- 26:14Speaker 1: corroded barrel on the receding shoreline of Lake Mead, advancing
- 26:18Speaker 1: a high-profile cold case that It actually reunited the speculation
- 26:23Speaker 1: recording regarding Las Vegas organized crime. So they identified this
- 26:29Speaker 1: 2022 by boaters. They've seen this barrel when the lake
- 26:33Speaker 1: went down. We've had real low, the lake. Levels, yeah. Yeah,
- 26:37Speaker 1: like a drought over there. So they found, by the way,
- 26:40Speaker 1: found many barrels, found many bodies. Yeah, yeah, yeah. In there. So,
- 26:45Speaker 1: I mean, look at the body. I mean, they actually
- 26:46Speaker 1: showed the guy's bones.
- 26:47Speaker 2: Wow, man. That's amazing.
- 26:51Speaker 1: John, how could his clothes be that good after 50 years?
- 26:53Speaker 1: That's really his shoe? That's his shoe? That's his shirt?
- 26:57Speaker 1: That shoe company, whoever it is, should really.
- 26:58Speaker 2: It's in the barrel, right?
- 26:59Speaker 3: Wow.
- 26:59Speaker 2: The barrel's airtight, I guess?
- 27:00Speaker 1: I don't know, man. They found his shirt, 2X shirt.
- 27:04Speaker 1: It's pretty wild. Manufactured in South Korea. It's 46 by
- 27:07Speaker 1: 30 blue jeans, a Sassoon-styled pocket shirt, blue and white.
- 27:12Speaker 1: Kmart tracks tennis shoes with Velcro enclosures. Wow. Kmart. Kmart.
- 27:16Speaker 1: Remember Kmart? Yeah.
- 27:18Speaker 3: Wow.
- 27:18Speaker 1: So anyway, they found this. But it's amazing. His family
- 27:23Speaker 1: didn't know where he was or he was even in Nevada.
- 27:26Speaker 1: They had no idea. So this definitely stirred the public's
- 27:30Speaker 1: imagination about the mob killings in the 70s and 80s.
- 27:34Speaker 1: when organized crime families exerted influence over Las Vegas casinos.
- 27:39Speaker 1: So they did find this guy, and they did identify him,
- 27:42Speaker 1: and it maybe brings some closure to someone in his family. Sure.
- 27:45Speaker 1: So that's at least good there. Amazing. I'm always hoping
- 27:49Speaker 1: that you don't go missing. I will be checking over there,
- 27:54Speaker 1: of course. How can I not talk about this idiot
- 27:56Speaker 1: that's sentenced?
- 27:58Speaker 2: I knew you were going to bring that up.
- 28:00Speaker 1: Everyone's sending it to me.
- 28:01Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 28:02Speaker 1: Everyone's sending it to me. Mitchell Fairbairn. All right, we're
- 28:04Speaker 1: going to give him at least, we're going to try
- 28:06Speaker 1: to give him four years. He actually pleaded not guilty.
- 28:11Speaker 1: Video camera, this guy's a real genius.
- 28:13Speaker 2: Crazy, right?
- 28:13Speaker 1: So he's sentenced right now until he gets his sentencing.
- 28:16Speaker 1: He's in a jail here in Nevada until December 1st
- 28:19Speaker 1: when he gets sentenced. Jurors rejected his defense, 30 to
- 28:24Speaker 1: 40 drinks, you know, caused this. The video's horrible, man.
- 28:28Speaker 1: I can't watch the video. I went to the Las
- 28:31Speaker 1: Vegas Golden Knights game last night. An idiot brings an
- 28:34Speaker 1: iguana in and saying it's their, what do they call that?
- 28:37Speaker 2: Service animal?
- 28:38Speaker 1: Yeah, their service animal.
- 28:39Speaker 2: Support animal?
- 28:39Speaker 1: Yeah, how come they even, how do they even let
- 28:42Speaker 1: them in? Like people have to sit next to this
- 28:44Speaker 1: thing and they put them on the camera, her on
- 28:46Speaker 1: the camera. You know, they put her on the camera.
- 28:50Speaker 1: Emotional support animal. An iguana on her shoulder. I wouldn't
- 28:53Speaker 1: want to be sitting next to that thing.
- 28:54Speaker 2: I mean, come on, man.
- 28:55Speaker 1: You know, it was a giant one, too. Yeah. You
- 28:56Speaker 1: know what I mean? She had, like, pink, purple hair.
- 28:59Speaker 1: You know, like.
- 29:01Speaker 4: I get a dog, but, like, what are we doing?
- 29:04Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 29:05Speaker 1: And I'm not looking at someone, but, hey, listen. My
- 29:07Speaker 1: nieces have their bottom of her hair color. I think
- 29:09Speaker 1: it's cute. I love iguanas, but come on. Yeah, like,
- 29:11Speaker 1: you know, come on, man.
- 29:13Speaker 2: I do that to the iguana. Yeah. I don't think...
- 29:16Speaker 2: A dog is a little more trainable, right?
- 29:18Speaker 1: You're bringing an iguana in. I don't know what it's
- 29:21Speaker 1: going to do. It looks like a prehistoric... That's exactly
- 29:23Speaker 1: what it looks like. It was a giant one, too.
- 29:26Speaker 1: It was like a two-foot iguana. An emotional support dinosaur
- 29:29Speaker 1: is what you got. People are crazy. But anyway, Fairbarn. Good.
- 29:35Speaker 1: I'm so happy. I'm glad I didn't go to court.
- 29:37Speaker 1: Yesterday I was thinking about going to the court, but
- 29:39Speaker 1: I would have... have been at least ejected if not arrested.
- 29:43Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 29:43Speaker 1: You know? Because I want to give my... But it's
- 29:45Speaker 1: not up to me to do that. Now his face
- 29:47Speaker 1: is out there. Now his face is out there. And,
- 29:51Speaker 1: you know, the poor bird is still suffering, too. Not
- 29:56Speaker 1: back to normal. It's okay. You know, it didn't die, but...
- 30:00Speaker 1: You cannot watch that video, folks. If you're just human,
- 30:04Speaker 1: it's tough to watch the video. Yeah. John, what else
- 30:08Speaker 1: we got going on? Did I mention cocaine cowboys? You did.
- 30:10Speaker 2: I'm looking at the board real quick.
- 30:13Speaker 1: Oh, what happened to Dodgers? Oh, okay, yeah. No, I forgot.
- 30:17Speaker 1: What's going on with Denver? Did Denver win last week? Yes. Okay.
- 30:20Speaker 2: Come on. Let me ask you this.
- 30:23Speaker 4: Chiefs are plus 125 on the road against the Seahawks.
- 30:27Speaker 4: And the Eagles are plus 185 against the Cowboys.
- 30:30Speaker 1: Do you know what's going on with the Eagles?
- 30:33Speaker 2: Who cares? The Cowboys are trash.
- 30:35Speaker 1: Do you know anything about who's hurt with the Eagles?
- 30:37Speaker 2: The quarterback's hurt?
- 30:38Speaker 1: Well, all right. He's not hurt. He's almost died. I mean,
- 30:41Speaker 1: he's got blood clots. Right.
- 30:43Speaker 2: But still.
- 30:44Speaker 1: All right, so the locks this week, guys, sounds like Seattle.
- 30:48Speaker 1: Come on! You know the rules.
- 30:51Speaker 4: You don't have to bet on Mahomes, but don't bet
- 30:54Speaker 4: against him.
- 30:56Speaker 2: I'm just saying. Plus 125?
- 30:57Speaker 4: Hey, everybody laughed at me when I said Brown's money
- 31:01Speaker 4: line last week.
- 31:02Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. Everybody laughed at me. You know
- 31:04Speaker 2: who you are.
- 31:05Speaker 1: Everyone gets a squirrel. Alright, guys. We're going to bring
- 31:10Speaker 1: Randy on.
- 31:11Speaker 3: All right, guys, over here at Circa, as you can see,
- 31:14Speaker 3: still there with myself alone.
- 31:17Speaker 1: Where's Randy? Oh, Randy, where are you this week, buddy?
- 31:20Speaker 3: There's the Gambling Hall of Fame. You should be in there, Randy.
- 31:23Speaker 3: You'll get in there way before I would even think
- 31:25Speaker 3: about getting in. There's some people in that Hall of
- 31:29Speaker 3: Fame that I definitely don't agree with, but there are
- 31:32Speaker 3: a lot that I do agree with also.
- 31:34Speaker 1: So, Randy, you had a nice....
- 31:37Speaker 3: You had a nice run here last week, 3-1, and
- 31:41Speaker 3: your teaser won.
- 31:43Speaker 1: You're losing. What was the losing one? There was a
- 31:45Speaker 1: losing one.
- 31:46Speaker 3: That I think you lost with.
- 31:48Speaker 1: Cleveland was a winner.
- 31:50Speaker 6: Jacksonville.
- 31:51Speaker 1: Oh, that's the one.
- 31:53Speaker 2: Boy.
- 31:53Speaker 6: I'm still working up my credentials to get in there,
- 31:56Speaker 6: so hopefully I can build them up maybe someday, but
- 31:59Speaker 6: you never know.
- 32:01Speaker 3: You should definitely be in there. Randy, Jacksonville staying across
- 32:07Speaker 3: the pond. What a disappointment.
- 32:10Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 32:11Speaker 3: Like people had them down as being the, one of
- 32:13Speaker 3: the best teams in football a few weeks earlier.
- 32:18Speaker 1: And again, just, just, just a disappointment.
- 32:21Speaker 6: So yeah, I knew that game. I knew that game
- 32:24Speaker 6: was over when they decided to kick the field goal. I,
- 32:28Speaker 6: I thought that was a bad decision by that coach.
- 32:30Speaker 6: Cause even if make it their entire, the game, Their
- 32:33Speaker 6: defense hadn't proven that they're going to stop in the
- 32:35Speaker 6: whole second half there. He needed to go for that
- 32:38Speaker 6: fourth and four and keep the ball there and get
- 32:43Speaker 6: closer and run the clock down and then win the
- 32:46Speaker 6: game that way rather than kick the field goal there.
- 32:49Speaker 6: That was a strategy mistake in my in my opinion.
- 32:53Speaker 1: Okay.
- 32:53Speaker 3: Hey Randy, you know, I have Mike Palm on today
- 32:56Speaker 3: to explain this, this great promotion they have over here.
- 32:59Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 33:01Speaker 1: 250 sign up. It's an unbelievable promotion for locals. You know,
- 33:06Speaker 1: they never had a count before. John Orlando is going
- 33:08Speaker 1: to sign up and he'll blow the, it doesn't matter.
- 33:10Speaker 1: He can't win.
- 33:12Speaker 6: I wonder who he's bet on.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Yeah, you just want to bet.
- 33:15Speaker 3: I have that URL, betagainstjohn.com, so I.
- 33:17Speaker 1: Have that saved. All right, Randy, what do you got
- 33:20Speaker 1: this week?
- 33:21Speaker 3: I'm going to go dark for a second to get
- 33:22Speaker 3: to lines. What do you have?
- 33:24Speaker 6: All right, we got three plays in this week. No teasers,
- 33:28Speaker 6: so we don't need to comment on the teaser section.
- 33:32Speaker 6: But good input by the viewers last week about the
- 33:35Speaker 6: teaser Zods. I didn't realize there were that bad. on
- 33:39Speaker 6: the regular books around the country and the Nevada books.
- 33:43Speaker 6: You know, so very disappointing. I think a shop should
- 33:47Speaker 6: step up and offer some teasers, but they hit pretty
- 33:51Speaker 6: well last week. You know, the sites I bet them on,
- 33:55Speaker 6: you know, paid out pretty nicely on those. But three-pack
- 33:59Speaker 6: of NFL, and we're going to go over to Paris
- 34:01Speaker 6: here right away in the morning.
- 34:03Speaker 1: All right.
- 34:05Speaker 6: So we're going to take the New Orleans Saints three-and-a-half.
- 34:10Speaker 3: Saints plus three and a half. Is that the 6.30 game, 6.30
- 34:15Speaker 3: AM our time?
- 34:17Speaker 4: Yep.
- 34:17Speaker 1: Plus three and a half is available at South Point, Caesars, BetMGM.
- 34:24Speaker 3: So there are three and a half.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Here at Circa, plus three and a half minus 20.
- 34:28Speaker 6: Okay, you got Pittsburgh here coming in, and hopefully they
- 34:31Speaker 6: play this game. You know, the unrest around Europe is
- 34:35Speaker 6: pretty frightening, and I was on the other show this morning.
- 34:39Speaker 6: And I commented that it was more stable when Ragnar
- 34:42Speaker 6: Lofbrok came up the Seine River. It was more stable
- 34:45Speaker 6: back then in the year 845 AD. So I commented
- 34:52Speaker 6: about that. They got a good chuckle out of that one.
- 34:54Speaker 6: But Pitt's coming off an overtime win versus Tampa Bay,
- 35:00Speaker 6: you know, having to play extra football here and then
- 35:03Speaker 6: having to travel to New England. Both teams here... Both
- 35:08Speaker 6: traveling over. Only one has taken the bye. So an
- 35:11Speaker 6: all in effort here for the New Orleans Saints. Like
- 35:14Speaker 6: I said before, I don't understand why all these teams
- 35:17Speaker 6: don't take the bye after England. You know, you got
- 35:20Speaker 6: the new or you got Pittsburgh has to go back
- 35:23Speaker 6: and play Cleveland at home after this game. So this
- 35:26Speaker 6: is more of an all in effort here for the
- 35:28Speaker 6: New Orleans Saints. And this line here, I think we're
- 35:33Speaker 6: getting a little bounce here with the plus three and
- 35:35Speaker 6: a half. It was a little shorter last week. So, uh,
- 35:39Speaker 6: you know, we're getting three in the hook and we,
- 35:40Speaker 6: of course we like that. Don't know what kind of
- 35:43Speaker 6: field conditions inside or out we're going to get in Paris. So, uh,
- 35:47Speaker 6: you never know what's going to happen here. And I
- 35:49Speaker 6: think that the, uh, new Orleans defense will hold up
- 35:52Speaker 6: against a slow pace. You know, I've talked about how
- 35:56Speaker 6: slow paces Pittsburgh Steeler is team is about on offense,
- 36:00Speaker 6: grinding you down and, uh, new Orleans has no problem, uh,
- 36:05Speaker 6: having some success here on offense. So I think we
- 36:08Speaker 6: hang in the game. I think it's going to be
- 36:10Speaker 6: a good close game for everybody in the morning. Like
- 36:14Speaker 6: most all primetime games are, whether you like them or not,
- 36:17Speaker 6: they're always close. So I think we get a close
- 36:20Speaker 6: type game here and hopefully another field goal type game. Okay.
- 36:25Speaker 3: All right.
- 36:25Speaker 1: What's your next one, Randy? I'll look at the lines.
- 36:28Speaker 6: I'm going to go with a big underdog. I actually
- 36:30Speaker 6: liked the look ahead line here in Bennett. I got
- 36:33Speaker 6: a bad number here. And it's went way up again.
- 36:37Speaker 6: Another situation here where the team doesn't take the buy
- 36:40Speaker 6: off in England. And we're going against the Houston Texans
- 36:44Speaker 6: here again, getting double digits with a feisty New York
- 36:48Speaker 6: Giants team.
- 36:50Speaker 3: You're about to get 10 and a half because Adam
- 36:53Speaker 3: Chernoff just released the other side of that game, minus 10.
- 36:58Speaker 1: It's going to 10 and a half. It's almost, it's
- 37:00Speaker 1: 10 and a half just.
- 37:01Speaker 3: About, not everywhere, but there's a lot of 10 and
- 37:05Speaker 3: a half now.
- 37:06Speaker 1: So there you go. You got 10 and a half
- 37:07Speaker 1: with the Giants. You got J.J. McCarthy on your side.
- 37:10Speaker 4: I guess.
- 37:13Speaker 6: Aaron Nott makes me like it even more because he
- 37:16Speaker 6: released the L.A. Chargers this year to win the AFC.
- 37:22Speaker 6: How's that looking so far?
- 37:24Speaker 1: Yeah, we like it. We don't want to say nothing.
- 37:27Speaker 1: We don't want to say nothing bad, though. I know.
- 37:29Speaker 6: We could cut that. But some of his picks have
- 37:31Speaker 6: been a little questionable as far as. me hearing about
- 37:35Speaker 6: the sides. I don't mind the guy. I've met him,
- 37:38Speaker 6: but yeah.
- 37:39Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 37:39Speaker 1: Yeah. We don't, we don't do that, but anyway. All right. Randy,
- 37:42Speaker 1: Randy going after people. I like that. All right.
- 37:45Speaker 6: And I don't mind that. He's a nice Canadian guy.
- 37:47Speaker 6: I've met him a couple of times.
- 37:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 37:49Speaker 3: Take, take, take them.
- 37:51Speaker 1: Yeah. Wonderful. Take them home with you.
- 37:52Speaker 3: All right.
- 37:53Speaker 1: So what's the, what's your next one? Or no, tell
- 37:55Speaker 1: us the reasons though. What's the reasons why you like
- 37:57Speaker 1: this team?
- 37:58Speaker 6: All right. The Giants are the Houston Texans traveling back
- 38:02Speaker 6: from from England here. And like I said, the pregame
- 38:05Speaker 6: line before all that happened last week was seven. Now
- 38:09Speaker 6: it's up to 10, maybe even 10 and a half.
- 38:12Speaker 6: I think they're betting it because of injuries. But this
- 38:15Speaker 6: New York Giants team has proven they've been feisty despite
- 38:18Speaker 6: the injuries here. So I like this New York Giants
- 38:22Speaker 6: team to hang in this game. Houston defense, not up
- 38:25Speaker 6: to the caliber that they have been the last couple
- 38:28Speaker 6: of years. You know, we've seen them give up all
- 38:30Speaker 6: them yards versus Jacksonville. Sure, it was all against good quarterbacks,
- 38:35Speaker 6: you know, and that kind of thing. But New York
- 38:37Speaker 6: Giants have a lot more offense this year than they
- 38:39Speaker 6: have in years past. Laying double digits to this team
- 38:44Speaker 6: is a scary proposition. And I'm surprised by the big
- 38:47Speaker 6: line move. And we we've seen these big line moves
- 38:51Speaker 6: go down in flames. We've seen survivor picks like the
- 38:54Speaker 6: Rams last week, you know, big money line ones like
- 38:58Speaker 6: this go down in flames and this one could go
- 39:01Speaker 6: down again. So I like the Giants to play feistiness
- 39:04Speaker 6: here and cover the number.
- 39:07Speaker 3: All right, Randy, you got some opposition there. You got
- 39:10Speaker 3: a better line, 10 and a half. What's your third play?
- 39:14Speaker 6: Third play, we're going to go back to the same
- 39:16Speaker 6: team that covered for us last week in a game
- 39:19Speaker 6: I believe you're at with Brian. No, I think I
- 39:21Speaker 6: saw a pitcher.
- 39:23Speaker 1: I was at the Raiders game.
- 39:25Speaker 6: At Allegiant Stadium. Yeah. And you got to see a
- 39:28Speaker 6: pretty entertaining game, which I thought.
- 39:30Speaker 1: Yes. Good game.
- 39:32Speaker 6: I thought the Raiders should have led at halftime. I
- 39:34Speaker 6: thought they were in trouble in the second half. But,
- 39:37Speaker 6: of course, Kirk Cousins came through with a nice bomb
- 39:40Speaker 6: there at the end to get us a to get
- 39:43Speaker 6: all the bills that were all liquored up. I'm sure
- 39:45Speaker 6: they're a little dejected about that.
- 39:47Speaker 3: There was, there was about 60%, maybe 65%.
- 39:52Speaker 1: Bills mafia in the stadium. It was bills fans for sure.
- 39:56Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure. And I just can't believe this line
- 40:00Speaker 6: in this game. You know, I got five and a half.
- 40:02Speaker 6: I'll still give it out at four and a half.
- 40:03Speaker 1: All right. Let's check it. All right. Hold on. So
- 40:06Speaker 1: you've got the Raiders plus five and a half.
- 40:08Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 40:08Speaker 6: I'll still give it out at four and a half.
- 40:11Speaker 1: All right, let's check Las Vegas.
- 40:14Speaker 3: I'm seeing plus five minus $ 1.
- 40:18Speaker 1: 12, plus four and a half.
- 40:22Speaker 3: Yeah, plus four, four and a half. Like I said,
- 40:27Speaker 3: this is one of the sites that most people can't get,
- 40:30Speaker 3: I mean, with the five. But it's one I really respect.
- 40:33Speaker 3: I respect Amapola's line score. Um, so that that's what
- 40:36Speaker 3: they have.
- 40:37Speaker 2: But all right.
- 40:38Speaker 3: So you're saying that plus four, four and a half
- 40:40Speaker 3: to four and a half, you know, we're looking for,
- 40:42Speaker 3: you want to get that half in case it does
- 40:43Speaker 3: land for though.
- 40:44Speaker 1: What's the reasons. Give us the reasons why.
- 40:46Speaker 6: Well, this is the same line versus against Buffalo here.
- 40:49Speaker 6: And we're getting a, you know, a desperate LA Rams team, but, uh,
- 40:54Speaker 6: they haven't proven anything. They've been losing games in a
- 40:57Speaker 6: lot of ways here. Their defense now has cluster injuries
- 41:00Speaker 6: on the defensive line. You know, they're not getting Miles
- 41:03Speaker 6: Garrett back anytime soon. They lost another couple guys, you know,
- 41:07Speaker 6: Brian Young or whatever his name is, and another guy.
- 41:11Speaker 6: And Aaron Donald hasn't really looked like the old Aaron
- 41:14Speaker 6: Donald yet. And also lost Devontae Adams in that game versus,
- 41:19Speaker 6: and he's probably out for the season. So there's another
- 41:22Speaker 6: weapon down for them. And the Rams special teams, of course,
- 41:27Speaker 6: that game kind of flipped there when the old kicker
- 41:29Speaker 6: tried to make a tackle there got blown over and
- 41:32Speaker 6: then they had to kind of go for two and
- 41:35Speaker 6: it got all goofy there. And that's why they got beat.
- 41:37Speaker 6: You know, Arizona tried to give that game away many
- 41:39Speaker 6: times and they couldn't take it. So, you know, this
- 41:43Speaker 6: feisty dog and this Las Vegas team three and three record.
- 41:47Speaker 6: And like I said, I liked the way Kirk cousins
- 41:49Speaker 6: has moved this team on offense. He did make the
- 41:52Speaker 6: one mistake versus the bills that almost cost us to cover,
- 41:56Speaker 6: but I don't believe against this defense, he's going to
- 41:59Speaker 6: make a mistake. And, You know, he's got those two
- 42:01Speaker 6: good tight ends that he can always go to. And,
- 42:04Speaker 6: you know, the receiving core isn't a great one, but
- 42:08Speaker 6: they get a little bit out of the backfield, too,
- 42:10Speaker 6: with the passing. I like this offense. You know, the
- 42:13Speaker 6: defense is improving. You know, they did stop Allen a
- 42:17Speaker 6: couple times there. It should have been a couple times more.
- 42:19Speaker 6: You know, Crosby, Allen made that one, you know, one
- 42:23Speaker 6: of the nicest plays, I think, in the NFL this
- 42:26Speaker 6: year was that shuttle pass he made for that 10-yard touchdown.
- 42:30Speaker 6: when I thought the Raiders were going to sack them there.
- 42:32Speaker 6: So this Raider defense is getting a little better and
- 42:36Speaker 6: we're getting a pretty nice price again at home. And
- 42:39Speaker 6: we actually, the Las Vegas Raiders might have more fans
- 42:42Speaker 6: than the LA Ram fans in this game.
- 42:44Speaker 1: All right. All right.
- 42:46Speaker 4: Good deal.
- 42:46Speaker 1: Randy, you got anything else? That's it, right? A good
- 42:49Speaker 1: three pack?
- 42:49Speaker 6: Good three pack. I would have added the Bengals, but
- 42:53Speaker 6: right before post.
- 42:54Speaker 1: Yeah, we got taken. The threes got taken.
- 42:56Speaker 6: I was trying to get a three and Mr. Crackman
- 42:59Speaker 6: got it before I could have got it across the river.
- 43:02Speaker 6: I was posted up ready to bet it and all
- 43:04Speaker 6: of a sudden it moved and I couldn't get one
- 43:07Speaker 6: nickel down on it.
- 43:09Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 43:10Speaker 1: That's all right. We'll see what happens with the NFL.
- 43:12Speaker 1: Anything can happen.
- 43:13Speaker 3: All right, Randy, we'll see you next week. Thank you
- 43:15Speaker 3: guys for joining us, liking, subscribing. Your comments have been fantastic.
- 43:19Speaker 1: Have a good day. Have a good weekend. Take care, everyone.
