• 1:03
  Okay okay okay we're here we're back it's three for the money new episodes every Thursday
• 1:11
  and it is the first full week without NFL football and my life has definitely lacked a ton of meaning
• 1:18
  also structure. Football gave me just an immense amount of structure in my life. Really made the
• 1:27
  days go by pretty fast and these days going by pretty slow just waiting for football but I don't
• 1:34
  know that's just me been taking a couple Trend Center plays here and there since then for college
• 1:40
  basketball but let's check in with the guys. Sean how you doing? Oh not too bad. I think college
• 1:51
  basketball has definitely helped me ease in to or out of the NFL a lot smoother. I've been having
• 2:01
  a blast betting on college basketball. I really started right after the Super Bowl like getting
• 2:09
  really heavy into it and I'd have to pull up my record but I feel like I'm doing pretty good.
• 2:18
  Most nights I end either above or even except for last night which is a total disaster on my part
• 2:28
  but yes Chris I'm sure you would agree. Yeah I mean college basketball Saturday's
• 2:37
  like was awesome. It really kind of helped me forget. It's like oh yeah there's no football
• 2:43
  tomorrow so that was nice. I've been doing pretty well in college basketball as well. I've had four
• 2:49
  or five straight winning days. Tonight's off to an all right start. We'll see how it goes but the
• 2:53
  night is still very young. Yeah Sunday was all right. I watched like an 11 a.m. college basketball
• 3:04
  game and then after that I was like I feel like I've been watching college basketball for like
• 3:08
  15 straight hours so I took a break watched some hockey and it was a good game. It was very entertaining
• 3:17
  but around like second period I'm like Sunday afternoon I'm watching fucking hockey.
• 3:24
  It just it didn't feel right and then of course didn't get to see the end.
• 3:27
  Shout out WKR and for that one but yeah it's it's definitely weird but yeah college basketball
• 3:34
  is helping me navigate through this. Month and a half from now we'll see. That will be the dark
• 3:43
  times but we'll cross that bridge when we get there so yeah just focusing on college basketball
• 3:50
  taking it one day at a time. Hell yes. I haven't been paying as much attention to college basketball.
• 3:58
  I have been taken just blindly taking the trend center plays. Trend center did have the Purdue
• 4:06
  upset to Ohio State on on one of their trends. Was that right? Have I remembered that correctly?
• 4:13
  They might have. I took Ohio State because I hate Purdue. Trend center may have had it. I don't know
• 4:22
  but yeah that game rocked because Zach Eadie is most overrated player in college basketball so
• 4:28
  yeah. Okay all right. Yeah my my strategy for just using the the money I found in my
• 4:43
  ESPN bet account for just just taking every single college basketball trend I see has not been going
• 4:53
  great. I've been kind of going overboard over it with it and it has sort of bit me a little bit.
• 5:01
  I guess it hurts when you don't really follow college basketball to blindly take all these bets.
• 5:08
  So that's that's bit me today. I only have two plays. The trend center play of the day and also
• 5:18
  the play that we tweeted out the Alabama Florida under 174 I believe but of course you're listening
• 5:27
  to this in the future so those are probably two winners already. They already cashed.
• 5:32
  Yes but I mean other than that what we got rockin. I mean football might be over but it's definitely
• 5:46
  still talked about all the time anyways so a lot of a lot of noise going around about if the bears
• 5:56
  are actually going to move on from Justin Fields and I wanted to get y'all's take on that like do
• 6:03
  you think like since they have the first pick this is worth trading fields or trade the pick get
• 6:11
  more assets. What do you what do you guys have a certain take on it or I think that the bears are
• 6:19
  probably going to do the dumbest thing possible whether you believe that is trading Justin Fields
• 6:25
  or not trading Justin Fields both are very possible but in the end it is going to be the
• 6:32
  stupidest decision. So you subscribe to whatever happens will be the dumbest. Yeah whatever what
• 6:42
  I don't really have a dog in the fight and like I don't know like it's very like I don't really
• 6:50
  have an opinion on it because it's it's very up in the air. I could see them trading Justin
• 6:58
  Fields and I could see them keeping Justin Fields. Bears fans are making political campaigns about
• 7:05
  keeping Justin Fields which is insane but yeah I think that in the end at the end of the 2024-2025
• 7:17
  season whatever they do will be wrong. I think that's a very fair analysis what do you think Chris?
• 7:30
  I mean I essentially have the same opinion as Sean when you first said what do you guys think my
• 7:37
  first thought was it doesn't matter because it's it's they're gonna fuck it up they just are and
• 7:44
  they didn't extend Eberfluss did they they just didn't fire him? I think so because I think he only
• 7:53
  has one more year left on this deal than being this year so he's barring some something ridiculous
• 8:02
  happening like they would have to make the playoffs trying to keep his job correct? Most likely.
• 8:07
  So what's the like there's no point for keeping out for having either one like you're gonna fire
• 8:17
  your coach you're gonna bring a new OC most likely I assume they're gonna fire Pace the the GM as well
• 8:24
  so like what do you do like you pick the wrong year to keep your coach like you have the number one
• 8:31
  draft pick blow it all up again draft Caleb Williams rebuild and then see where that gets you but no
• 8:40
  I guess you draft I don't even know like honestly I don't know because I'm not as high on Caleb
• 8:44
  Williams as everyone else I think he will be a solid NFL quarterback I don't see him being a
• 8:51
  generational talent like Patrick Mahomes like some people are saying I just it's hard to picture them
• 8:58
  being like like if they had fired Iba Fluss I would say yeah draft Caleb Williams let's just see
• 9:04
  what happens but now it's like well what do you just trade it trade the number one pick
• 9:10
  and run it back with fields and if that doesn't work hope you suck enough again to get at least a
• 9:16
  top 10 pick next year like I don't know what I don't know what they're thinking yeah it's um
• 9:24
  it's it is a conundrum it's tough to think what they should do but I but this is also the first
• 9:36
  time I've heard the take that whatever they will do does not matter because it will be the wrong
• 9:43
  I mean how many correct moves have they made in the last decade
• 9:49
  one yeah maybe yeah no one since they went to the Super Bowl and lost how many like you could
• 9:59
  say like oh yeah Nagy and Trabisky they went to the where was that the division around where the
• 10:06
  double-doink and it's like ever since then I mean they weren't really like doing great I mean
• 10:13
  division around I guess that's good but no one I don't think really took them as serious contenders
• 10:17
  but ever since then they've just been in a tailspin as a franchise so yes until they do something
• 10:27
  correct it's it's hard for me to be like yeah this what they have done is the correct move
• 10:33
  just as they do it I'll have to see it play out before I'm like okay there we go Bears
• 10:41
  the they I know that they've made one correct move and that was trading last year's first
• 10:45
  overall pick to the Panthers that was yes that was a 4d chess galaxy brain move and they got DJ Moore
• 10:56
  but see it would have been good it was definitely a smart move it was a good move but I don't know if
• 11:02
  it was a smart move by the Bears or just the Panthers offering way too much for so far a
• 11:10
  quarterback who is not very good we'll see it's only been one year but we will see I just don't
• 11:16
  know if that's like oh great move by the Bears or terrible move by the Panthers because I I wasn't
• 11:21
  there so I don't know how that went down yeah that's uh that's fair I didn't think about that one um
• 11:30
  let's see do we do we think that well it's one more thing before we move on from fields I saw a quote
• 11:40
  from him today where he was like I'm tired of talking about like trade rumors and stuff like
• 11:46
  I just wanted to be done well maybe don't unfollow your team on Instagram like that's what you're
• 11:55
  making people talk about it he did that on purpose so you can't do that and then get pissed from
• 12:03
  people ask you about it I just saw that today and I was like what are you what are you thinking I
• 12:11
  you know that was my last thing it's it's I kind of hate it and don't hate it when athletes like
• 12:20
  delete everything from like their current team it's like okay man like obviously like you're upset
• 12:28
  and but you you don't have to do this it's I don't know I feel like it's kind of a psycho move but
• 12:34
  also like this is one of the only things that they have as like moves that they could do
• 12:41
  and and sort of to show how upset they are but I don't know I think it's whatever like someone
• 12:49
  deletes all their team stuff it's like really yeah it's it all seems childish yeah I mean it is
• 12:58
  and I don't really have an issue with him doing that it's just like you can't do that and then be
• 13:03
  like why are you asking me about it is that well like what the fuck of course they're gonna ask about
• 13:11
  it so yeah yeah okay other draft cues do I think I think with like you know I mean it's no secret
• 13:29
  that we're all we're all Titans fans here you know just clarifying for the people all the people
• 13:34
  that listen or our devoted listeners do we it's like the position that we are in the draft we're at seven
• 13:45
  and there's like two stud linemen the the first three quarterbacks are are gonna be taken one
• 13:53
  two and three most likely and then there's like three stud receivers and Marvin Harrison Jr. is out of
• 14:03
  out of the the picture out of the question for us so I did a little analysis and it does kind of seem
• 14:10
  like it all kind of depends on what the chargers do because the chargers have I think pick five
• 14:19
  if I'm remembering correctly and it's kind of like their O line is really good when it's healthy
• 14:26
  we'll see what they do so and they're not gonna take a quarterback they might take alignment
• 14:35
  or they might take a receiver and it's like they drafted a receiver last year and he is
• 14:41
  not that great there's a bunch of memes about him I remember that I remember the memes but also they
• 14:48
  have Mike Williams and Kenan Allen still I think yeah they just cut someone they just they just cut
• 14:55
  are they're expecting to cut Mike Williams yeah yeah well I mean that's fair he's he's always injured
• 15:05
  I mean everyone on that team is injured but so it's kind of like if if the chargers pick
• 15:14
  alignment then we're probably it feels like we're probably gonna draft a receiver
• 15:18
  but if if they draft a receiver then it I mean we might pick up alignment or it really depends
• 15:28
  like all the other people ahead of us their needs are obvious obvious glaring needs
• 15:37
  um I don't have it in front of me right now but I I remember thinking that whenever it was
• 15:42
  whenever I was looking at it but it's oh it really comes down to the chargers and so
• 15:46
  yeah it's uh kind of weird I don't know it's like Joe Alt the guy from Notre Dame and then
• 15:56
  there's one other lineman whose name escapes me I don't think even knew his name but yeah that's uh
• 16:05
  as Will's draft analysis for for this week very good you've given me more draft analysis than I
• 16:12
  have been keeping up with so that's good it really shows how much I miss football
• 16:20
  yeah one week
• 16:24
  give me more football it's been more than one week for Titans fans
• 16:31
  yeah but we're used to it so yeah
• 16:33
  um so I also heard a thing today it was like fan duel rated Will Leviss in the number 32 quarterback
• 16:43
  yeah they rated they rated him behind guys who haven't been drafted yet yeah yeah and that's just
• 16:50
  that's just tom fool let me pull it up because there was one that pissed me off I was like really
• 16:57
  the JJ McCarthy uh yes for the commanders that made me furious I was like what do you talk or no
• 17:06
  he's not for the Falcons go ahead and I I want to know JJ McCarthy like he's for the Falcon and
• 17:16
  not the commanders but yeah also being ranked behind Drake May is like what are we doing here
• 17:22
  like I think that would just let's get some clicks I think also also being a full 11 spots higher
• 17:32
  than Will Leviss that's crazy um I mean Fan Duel also put Michael Pinnick Jr for the Broncos so
• 17:42
  I mean Russ isn't staying I don't think in Denver so really I don't think so
• 17:50
  I see I don't know what his contract situation is is he a free agent or are they in
• 17:56
  no no he is not a free agent he is just I don't I don't know why Fan Duel didn't put Russell Wilson
• 18:05
  in this uh in this way too early rankings but I don't know yeah
• 18:12
  yeah also Brock Purdy just went to a Super Bowl in his like middle of the pack
• 18:21
  yeah I that's going to be the narrative for Brock Purdy forever now and unless he wins a Super Bowl
• 18:28
  and then it will be is he the worst quarterback to win a Super Bowl yeah yeah so I mean he's
• 18:35
  never gonna unless he wins an MVP which probably won't happen no disrespect that's just very hard
• 18:42
  thing to do he's never gonna escape that yeah yeah now did you say MVP or MVP for the for Nickelodeon
• 18:53
  I mean both are very prestigious honors I said MVP but MVP I mean some say that's harder to win
• 19:02
  some would say that is harder to win I mean how how many does Lamar Jackson have
• 19:08
  I don't I don't know does he have zero uh yeah sure
• 19:15
  we'll run with that I can greater than sign Lamar Jackson because yeah
• 19:21
  Mr. Miski won an MVP I can tell you that Will Leviss has more
• 19:26
  more in vps than most of those quarterbacks on that list so that's right that the disrespect there is
• 19:35
  that's just that's just kind of wild that like
• 19:41
  I think it's like I I I'll give it to him but like they might be taking injury into account
• 19:48
  for this because he probably will get injured next year just the way that he plays
• 19:54
  like he's very very aggressive yeah and he loves to tackle with his face and just run into guys but
• 20:05
  he does it for the team which is great but yeah I mean maybe that's what they're putting in there
• 20:11
  but I think 30 the the last to be in dead last that's kind of that's kind of wild
• 20:19
  yeah I mean I know it's like it means nothing because it's too stupid to really get mad over
• 20:26
  I'm more mad that I mean people think that JJ McCarthy is going to be a starting quarterback
• 20:32
  in the fell next year that's not happening no like he's not yeah he might start out being one he will
• 20:38
  not finish the season as a starting quarterback unless like he goes somewhere and doesn't get
• 20:44
  brought in for like weeks 15 through 16 or 18 on like a dumpster fire franchise
• 20:51
  I mean he will not be a full-time starting quarterback next year he just he's not very good
• 20:58
  he's not like he is he's good he is a fine he is a fine quarterback he's fine and there's nothing
• 21:06
  wrong with that but he's not I mean I've seen multiple different players in the last three
• 21:13
  months I've seen multiple mock drafts with him in the top going top 10
• 21:20
  this is what this is this is bringing me back to the Will Leviss conversations we had this time
• 21:26
  last year though yes and we were we were all three dead fucking wrong and I've never been more
• 21:34
  happy to be wrong but yeah if we want to throw it back year before that I also said the league
• 21:40
  willis was gonna be garbage and he was okay so one and one people I'm saying people were saying
• 21:46
  Malik willis could be the like first round draft pick and I was like this guy fucking blows
• 21:54
  and so it's just funny like we we drafted him and you were like I am now a Malik Willis guy
• 22:05
  you have to be yeah I had to be I didn't I couldn't just back off my take immediately
• 22:09
  yeah but I mean I guess you I guess you didn't back off your take immediately with Will Leviss
• 22:15
  no after that falcons game I was like this is this is my king like I'm all in he is the truth
• 22:21
  he is the future I have taken back I don't know I take it back I admit I was wrong so far about
• 22:29
  all the negative things I said about him leading up to his leading up to him being drafted
• 22:33
  we said some we said some things I said he just wouldn't be an NFL court
• 22:44
  so yeah and look at look at that in VP man
• 22:53
  does the Marjax have an MVP I don't know I I have to look this up he might he might I have no idea
• 23:00
  yeah I I want to say that he does he probably does maybe I don't know
• 23:10
  who has the most in vps do you think does anyone have multiple I feel like they got a
• 23:16
  does anyone have a list of in VP I think Sean is working on it just typed in Lamar Jackson
• 23:25
  in VP and it says people also ask is Lamar Jackson related to Samuel L Jackson
• 23:34
  well that wasn't uh that wasn't what I was I don't think so just saying
• 23:43
  big Nate announces Lamar Jackson is in VP of week 14
• 23:47
  2013 season shit okay 13 week 14 I'm sorry do they give those out weekly
• 24:01
  I don't know I don't care I don't want to talk about this anymore
• 24:08
  the massive award quarterback award we we really got onto this in VP
• 24:14
  or maybe Derek maybe Derek has I think Derek has one I think I remember that yeah
• 24:24
  surprise there's not like a Wikipedia page just a database yeah should be on their pro football
• 24:30
  reference page that'd be wild just kind of some old head like what the hell is an in VP okay I found it
• 24:45
  you found it yeah give me the goods give me a good shot well there's a lot of them but I'm trying to see
• 24:57
  if there are multiple winners give us thank you yeah if there are any multiples or if there are any
• 25:03
  weird ones I know Mitch Trebisky got one yeah because yeah because everyone was yeah everyone was just
• 25:13
  like oh we got the guy I think I think he got it when he lost a game against Baker Mayfield
• 25:26
  in the Rams how the hell do you know I think it might have been a Christmas game
• 25:42
  and he got and he won the MVP yeah because on a losing team yes because his name was funny
• 25:50
  well this is a fraudulent award I protest in VPs I I don't see Mitch Trebisky on this
• 25:59
  Mitch definitely has one I know I he is not on here will I could have sworn he had one
• 26:07
  he's had one because I remember I remember watching a game and everybody was like everyone
• 26:13
  loves his name Trebisky it's funny so they voted for him all the kids voted for him because it's
• 26:18
  funny name he he does not have one I am I'm looking at the winners I have control f'd the entire page
• 26:29
  Mitch Trebisky does not come up no I'm he he won it I'm looking at article right now what let's go
• 26:38
  he beat after being the saints in the first round of the 2020 NFL playoffs you by score of 21 to 9 he
• 26:45
  was he was named in VP cool I was I was wrong about the game but I knew he I knew he had oh no no
• 26:55
  he they lost 21 to 9 excuse me yeah they want they they they lost I think that was his last game with
• 27:01
  the pairs yeah I think yeah yeah I think it was 2020 because I knew it was a losing effort I knew he
• 27:13
  lost that's wild that's what year 2020 okay I only have 2021 through 24 when the award became like
• 27:24
  a weekly thing when it became recognized by the yeah I think the weirdest one I found was
• 27:35
  the entire Buffalo offense got one for the Super Bowl wild card weekend in 2022 when they
• 27:42
  smacked the Patriots around the field through a perfect game essentially yeah on every drive
• 27:50
  this is a this is a fraudulent if we're just giving it to everyone it's participation trophy at
• 27:55
  this point yeah and uh week week 17 2022 2023 the award was not given because uh
• 28:03
  uh to tomorrow amlin uh like I just giving it to him yeah I know
• 28:14
  he's gotta have something to put on that trophy case give him something if anyone if anyone deserved
• 28:24
  it it was him I'm not good enough for combat play of the year but or an MVP I guess yeah
• 28:34
  god this dude's just getting shanked left and right
• 28:41
  hell yes MVP oh god the MVP has been given to two kickers and a and one head coach
• 28:50
  head okay this is this would it what it helped if the head coach was Dan Campbell okay that helps
• 28:58
  that's fair that's fair yeah he's the only one I can imagine deserving that
• 29:04
  the only one I imagine being super stoked
• 29:08
  yeah I'm surprised he probably after that he probably cried yeah honestly I'll just say this
• 29:15
  game is this game is so beautiful I just love football that dude does love football
• 29:26
  football guy definition it's emotional just talking about it's crazy I saw some quote from
• 29:35
  golf talking about uh Campbell was yelling at them and like a team meeting is he had a tooth
• 29:42
  fly out of his mouth while he was screaming and golf said he just picked it up put it back in
• 29:50
  and just kept screaming at him didn't acknowledge it never acknowledged it not even like after the
• 29:55
  film session or whatever you're like damn that was crazy just like put it back in and was start
• 30:01
  kept putting boost to asses could have could have been uh could have been a zen I don't know
• 30:11
  know teeth yeah that's what I was thinking good like you know that's actually yeah that's
• 30:17
  possible but I do think Campbell is more of a backy kind of guy just straight yeah just
• 30:25
  he's a he's a pack a day he's a pack a day kind of guy most definitely and a backer
• 30:34
  you all right let's let's stop talking about the MVP because yeah I'm tired of talking about that
• 30:47
  because it's ridiculous the more that I look at this list it's just more ridiculous it's a sham
• 30:54
  I won't say that because we talked so highly of it but it is ridiculous
• 31:00
  it's okay moving on from the MVP discussion I know uh I I didn't really pay attention to the the NBA
• 31:11
  All-Star game uh because the great white hope Matt uh Mack MacLung was not was not a part of it so
• 31:21
  wasn't as fun definitely didn't watch didn't pay attention at all uh did any of you guys pay
• 31:26
  attention to the game itself to anything All-Star related well I mean Matt MacLung he won the
• 31:33
  dunk contest this year again yeah I didn't even know yeah that's why I thought you were just
• 31:42
  talking about the game yeah yeah he won it again um he was the only one who really did anything cool
• 31:48
  the dunk contest is a sham is it do you do you think it's hard to find new dunks though
• 31:54
  yes it definitely is but I've seen also like highlights or like clips from just like guys at
• 32:06
  like a park or some other like random dunk contest doing should I've never seen an NBA player doing
• 32:12
  a dunk contest so it's like yes it is hard to come up with new dunks and I think that is part of it
• 32:20
  but also the ones that were doing other MacLung he did actually have some cool ones and I think
• 32:25
  Jacob Toppin had a cool one but other than that it's like Jaylen Brown jumped over like a five four
• 32:31
  twitch streamer who was sitting down and everyone was like this this sucks like less than 10 years
• 32:41
  ago we had Aaron Gordon jumping over a mascot and he didn't even win so yeah I didn't know
• 32:52
  what didn't uh Blake Griffin like jump over a Kia Soul he jumped over the hood of a Kia
• 32:58
  and a lot of people have been bringing that up lately like being like oh we had guys jumping
• 33:03
  over cars it's like when that happened he got clowned for it because when that car got brought
• 33:09
  out everyone's like oh he's gonna jump over a car this is gonna be awesome he jumped over the hood
• 33:14
  and it was like okay that was still cool but it wasn't what we thought you were gonna do
• 33:21
  yeah so people bringing that back up is like one like an all-time dunk contest moment I was like no
• 33:26
  I remember in high school and people were like no that wasn't even that impressive but if you did
• 33:32
  that today like if that had never happened and you did that with today's dunk contest yeah it'd be
• 33:37
  the greatest thing ever seen compared to what some of these guys were doing
• 33:43
  okay um I remember watching that that Blake Griffin dunk and I was like you know I think
• 33:52
  that was so long ago I was probably a teenager but like I was like oh man he's gonna jump over a car
• 34:00
  cool and then like he just jumped over the hood and I was like he didn't really jump
• 34:04
  over the car yeah it was like he probably that's probably what he does like in a game like getting
• 34:12
  that high so it wasn't it was like it was it was visually impressive like it was cool but it was
• 34:19
  like when he brought the car it was like oh shit like we're gonna see some something awesome it's
• 34:25
  oh okay like it was cool but that's also how I felt when Michael Phelps tried to or they said he
• 34:31
  was gonna race a shark oh don't even get me started on that oh shit
• 34:39
  let's do the biggest disappointments in sports no that Phelps thing was way that was the worst
• 34:46
  yeah that was so overhyped that was so dumb I was so I was so excited for that and it was just like
• 34:56
  it was like an hour and a half long like program laying up to it and I remember being at my buddy's
• 35:01
  house we're having a few drinks like but the fucking see Michael Phelps race like this is gonna be
• 35:06
  awesome and then it was like here's a minute and a half of Michael Phelps racing the computer
• 35:12
  simulation of a great white shark and credits and I remember like wait a minute what that was
• 35:21
  the biggest robbery I've ever seen fuck you just give me a chance
• 35:25
  um but I don't know if they I think they only did this for like the skills competition but
• 35:35
  there the NBA's like LED court was cool I did enjoy that a little bit I have heard that the court
• 35:44
  was cool I didn't love it for the three-point contest just because it was lime green yeah
• 35:51
  yeah but other than that I I did think it was pretty cool it was a very cool concept I thought
• 35:55
  when I first saw that they were doing I was like oh I don't know about this but it it was pretty cool
• 36:01
  yeah it was uh I the way that the NBA like did this all-star weekend it they seem like a tech
• 36:10
  conference like they seem like a tech company now like because they also introduced like the NBA AI
• 36:18
  thing did y'all see that no what is that it's like some AI program that can turn any NBA game into
• 36:30
  like different art styles like Adam Silver was up there and he was like hey show me the nuggets
• 36:38
  versus the Warriors in like a spider-man style and it like transformed the game to look like
• 36:46
  like the across the spider-verse like kind of movie and I was like this is crazy
• 36:53
  that is pretty wild I didn't see that that's pretty wild wow I'll try to find that and show that to
• 36:58
  you later um but yeah it I just kind of felt like the NBA was just like hey look at all this new
• 37:05
  stuff we have basically this players don't give a shit so we're gonna distract you with all of this
• 37:10
  all of our shiny toys yeah it was like a it was like a big shareholders meeting almost like it was
• 37:17
  like hey look at this invest in the NBA so that's kind of my two's I didn't watch a single second
• 37:27
  of like the game I saw a few highlights of the skills stuff but yeah other than that I really
• 37:35
  didn't give a shit I saw um a clip of Luca pulling up from about 75 feet and I was like okay like
• 37:47
  it pretend to give half a shit for me no it might have hit the backboard
• 37:57
  okay I just like was it like at the end of like a quarter or no
• 38:01
  oh and out of the ball
• 38:07
  just like in the middle of the game I did see that clip yeah the game in the second quarter yeah
• 38:14
  it's like threw it up he was like yeah I was like man that was like the game personified
• 38:21
  like nobody gives a fuck about this and I don't really blame them but like damn it's it's just a shame
• 38:28
  I had kind of this thought like a week or two ago and it was like
• 38:35
  I kind of I feel like I kind of get if like NBA players don't give a shit I think it's because
• 38:43
  like the game of basketball is such like a like a pickup game like you can just
• 38:51
  you can just play a game of basketball like it's it's a little bit different with football
• 38:58
  because there's two real sides and it's different from hockey because everyone has to have sticks
• 39:05
  there has to be a puck has to be a goalie but like with basketball is you just need a ball and a hoop
• 39:12
  it so I don't know it's kind of like like the vibes around basketball or like just
• 39:21
  just playing a game pickup you know just just just like playing a game I don't know it's like
• 39:27
  basketball the game of basketball is more like just I guess a game than more of a game than like
• 39:35
  football or like hockey I don't know does that make sense am I talking about in my ass no I give
• 39:41
  what you're saying but I saw like also play some sort of defense it's all like for the all-star
• 39:48
  game because like nobody like and I get it like you're just out there to have fun with your fellow
• 39:55
  multi-millionaires but like I get both sides like I get not wanting to go all out because yeah if like
• 40:05
  if you're honest and you're third place in the east you can make a run at a title and you
• 40:10
  tear your ACL in the all-star game yeah that fucking sucks but don't expect me to give a
• 40:17
  shit about it if you don't give a shit about it that makes a lot of sense and that's kind of like
• 40:25
  the NFL just the NFL just gave up and I kind of respect that like you know the pro ball sucks
• 40:33
  so it's gone we're gonna play dodgeball and flag football and I kind of respect that yeah yeah I mean
• 40:43
  it looks like it looks like they are having more fun yeah yeah it definitely does except the MLB
• 40:52
  all-star that's always gonna be fun that's always fun because they actually like the game isn't that
• 40:59
  much different yeah like you still have to like you can't just have like if you have fast and baseball
• 41:05
  it's the most boring thing ever like is nobody's gonna it'll be zero zero so yeah it's just it's
• 41:13
  kind of just like a normal game of baseball the all-star game and the hockey all-star game is awesome
• 41:18
  because it's like the three on three tournament again not even an actual all-star game because
• 41:24
  I remember I can't remember what year it was but I think like Philip Forsberg scored like five goals
• 41:33
  and the team lost and it was something like someone's like one team scored like 17 goals like that when
• 41:41
  they had like the actual just the game not like the three on three thing and the NFL was like okay
• 41:47
  we're done we got to redo it and like the NBA is still the only sport that
• 41:55
  is just hanging on to their god awful all-star game yeah I mean I I expect them to you know move on
• 42:04
  soon honestly I mean there's nothing that I mean I they just have to get rid of it make it
• 42:11
  to make it do like a three on three like basketball game or something like that yeah it's like half
• 42:18
  court pickup game that would be cool yeah just something that kind of opens it up yeah and I don't
• 42:27
  know it's it's it's tough to get you're right it is tough to give a shit about the the all-star
• 42:35
  game when it's like this game doesn't matter I'm not gonna go all out and hurt myself and it's in
• 42:43
  the middle of their season so yeah like this is at the end you could be maybe get a little bit more
• 42:49
  effort maybe what I guess pro bowl is an example of definitely not but yeah I mean I just don't know
• 42:56
  how to fix it yeah it's tough to make them give a shit I mean maybe if you give them some money I
• 43:06
  think that's I think they did that they tried that with the NHL also I think it's like you
• 43:11
  if you win the all-star tournament then you you all split like a million dollars or you all get a
• 43:18
  million dollars I don't know I can't remember I think like how much how much is like Yonis making
• 43:25
  per year like 40 million dollars I don't think you can really give them
• 43:32
  like maybe um yeah maybe like a million each maybe would make them care but like
• 43:40
  any more than that I feel like this a bit ridiculous like you're like you will give 10
• 43:43
  million dollars each okay fuck you go go turn go turn this game into uh into the toy store universe
• 43:57
  oh on it like if they had the same game like that we saw on whatever saturday
• 44:03
  sunday night but in the toy story verse I I check it out oh yeah I check it out put this in the
• 44:14
  universe of saving private Ryan Jesus I did think of a way to make the dunk contest cooler
• 44:26
  I don't know if they actually almost definitely will never do this but you give them trampolines
• 44:34
  make it like a 14 foot hoop or whatever whatever the slam ball regulation hoop is
• 44:40
  and just give them trampolines that is I think that'd be sick that is a fantastic idea but that
• 44:47
  is the easiest way to get hurt but like if you're super high up and you come crashing down that is
• 44:53
  that is the and also just like the initial like bounce of the trampoline can like mess you up I'm
• 45:01
  just trying to think of like I'm sure there were probably a lot but watching slam ball back in the
• 45:06
  day how many guys just I mean it was a pretty much a contact sport so I remember guys getting hurt
• 45:10
  that way but I don't remember we wanted just like going for like right on the trampoline and like boom
• 45:15
  ACL gone definitely very risky that's they won't ever do it it's I'm just saying I put the fuck
• 45:24
  this Mack MacLung have to play like oh no my G-League season is over okay we're gonna get a
• 45:32
  bunch of like nobody's in it anyway like who the fuck cares fair enough all I'm saying is I've seen
• 45:39
  you know like people tear their ACL celebrating like just like getting up and so well then why do
• 45:46
  it's crazy I know I don't know but I'm just saying no I get it they definitely will never do it but
• 45:53
  I just thought that'd be awesome I mean something awesome that doesn't put them at danger I mean
• 46:00
  too dangerous fun we can put up one of those foam pits like under so they can land in that how about
• 46:09
  that all right that's a good idea I wasn't knocking the idea I was just saying that is I get it like
• 46:16
  oh I know I think that's a good idea foam pit who doesn't love a foam pit
• 46:20
  just jumping into a pit of foam breathing or a grand old times are you being sarcastic or
• 46:33
  no oh like jumping up from like you know when you're like 12 and you you have your your birthday
• 46:39
  they pump it up no free no free shout out pump it up it's still a thing I have no clue but it'd be
• 46:51
  an awesome it's one of those like indoor things like a bunch of like that shit tend to giant inflatables
• 46:57
  like oh okay like a trampoline park like no no we'll sort of like with no trampolines just a
• 47:03
  bunch of inflatable like big ass inflatable slides and one had an inflatable basketball court yeah one
• 47:10
  had basketball one had like boxing that was okay um yeah sure yeah I don't know if that's still
• 47:20
  I'm all about a foam pit I could jump in a foam pit at 28 years old I might just do it I don't
• 47:28
  think I could get out of a foam pit if I be honest if I tried hard yeah I could do it
• 47:37
  it's a hole where you have a ladder you gotta you gotta fight your way up
• 47:42
  dig through those things yeah that's I don't no I don't like foam pits I don't like them
• 47:51
  I haven't been in one long enough to like have an opinion but I can't see that being like
• 47:59
  it's fun and then you like come back up you know oh shit like how do I get out of this thing
• 48:08
  and then I an almost 30 year old man will be panicking
• 48:11
  you oh
• 48:15
  we're so high in like a six year old just I got you
• 48:28
  help me grab my hand mister I'm so drunk right now
• 48:34
  thank you johnny
• 48:41
  I won't forget what you've done for me here today
• 48:46
  god
• 48:49
  didn't think this gambling podcast would go to go to big gas foam pits today did you
• 48:56
  I mean I think if anything just just shows how much we miss football
• 49:02
  yeah just a little bit of football a lot we've already talked about football
• 49:07
  I know and there's not much else we can talk about at the moment yep um let's see
• 49:16
  I haven't really been paid attention to hockey all that much to be honest
• 49:19
  can we do a brief just maybe close it out talk about college basketball for a second
• 49:24
  yeah yes kind of like the the drama that's been going on like we had so two nights ago
• 49:32
  it was Texas A&M commerce and Incarnate Word got in a brawl like full-on brawl like fist fight
• 49:41
  during the handshake line oh is that the one where we uh we tweeted out the video yeah it was and the
• 49:46
  band was playing it was so I mean it was it was funny I don't think anyone got hurt so it was funny
• 49:52
  and then last night uh Yukon gets swamped by Creighton and then Dan Hurley the Yukon coach
• 50:02
  walking off the courts getting chirped by Creighton fans not even thinking like bad he wasn't
• 50:07
  getting like motherfucked or anything it was just like hey well I think some people were just like
• 50:12
  welcome to Creighton or something like that nothing really that bad and then he was like I will knock
• 50:17
  you out like he's like I will he's like I will end you yeah he's trying to fight kids he's he's a crazy
• 50:26
  coach oh no question but like what the hell is going on drinks his own piss on the sideline
• 50:36
  gotta do it you gotta do I guess but yeah it's just been wild world of college basketball
• 50:43
  all that this was just the last three days that's why the sport's amazing anything can happen and uh
• 50:55
  I remember uh it was sometime last week me and Sean were watching um I can't even it was like
• 51:02
  Michigan State and someone else and they uh there was like two minutes left in the game and we had
• 51:11
  Michigan State like like plus four or something can you remember Sean do you know what I'm talking about
• 51:19
  and they cut away oh yeah that was the CBS yeah it was Michigan State and who were they playing
• 51:29
  was it Auburn Illinois Illinois yeah I think it was Illinois yeah and they yeah we had I remember
• 51:36
  that because I was watching at the same time as y'all were and yeah at Michigan State plus or
• 51:40
  minus something and they were covering at the time but it was only about like a few points
• 51:47
  and yes I think like Illinois scored and was like all right we're gonna cut away to our coverage of
• 51:55
  Kentucky Gonzaga and that game hadn't started yet yeah yes that was infuriating
• 52:02
  I was just watching like medicine commercials and then it was like all right getting set for
• 52:10
  the tip off I was like this game hasn't even started Jesus yeah that's luckily they covered
• 52:19
  I would have been oh I would have been very very upset if they had not covered and I just
• 52:27
  didn't get well I guess I would rather not see it but that'd be two things that make me furious
• 52:34
  happening yes um yeah that was yeah and this this is like right after the Super Bowl it's me trying
• 52:44
  to get back into college basketball actually try and like know what I'm doing when when when a bracket
• 52:53
  time comes around it just cuts away and I'm like I didn't even get the full game here what are we
• 52:59
  doing what are we talking about yeah that was that was egregious that's not normal like college
• 53:05
  basketball shenanigans that's just CBS being a bunch of dipshits it's all about the money
• 53:11
  the game hadn't started yet the game wasn't over it was like the game wasn't over and the other game
• 53:20
  wasn't can't get it yeah it wasn't happen I guess I watched like six minutes of commercials
• 53:29
