  Speaker 1: Welcome to the favorites from the new Colin Cowherd led
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: volume and podcast network. I am Shad Milman from the
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Action Network and it's Thursday. That means it's time to
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: enter the Thursday Thunderdome. On today's show, our special guests
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: will compete alongside my co host, my bff, my companion,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Professional Sports Better Simon Hunter, in an epic test of
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: wagers and wits that's made this show the most celebrated
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: sports betting adjacent trivia show in podcast history. Simon, my man,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: my man, Chad. Just so we let them know. You
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: do skew the questions towards me. But I've yet to win,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: and we're going on to week eight now, so I
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: am pretty terrible at this. That tries to help me out,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: but like the game, but I am at end of
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: every round the brand of the game. Try always risk
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: all my points, and that has not worked out for
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: me at any time. Simon, that is true. I try
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: to make every every every question go your way. I
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: don't care how legendary the guests are or how much
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: time they've spent prepping. I want you to win. Today.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: You will face two challengers. The first television personality author
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: legendary running back who spent a dazzling tenure career with
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: the New York Giants and has become a household name.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Literally in my house, it's the only other name we used.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: We want to say something is being complimented. Mr Tiki Barber,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: what's up, Chad? I thought you were gonna go with
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the alliteration instead of saying a dazzling ten years, you
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: should have said a dazzling decade with the New York Giants.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: And Simon, by the way, I did an event with
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the Action Networks owned Darren Ravell. He hadn't won. He
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: beat me, So feel good about yourself, man, feel good.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: It's true. It's totally true. Uh. And by the way,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I would have gone with with dazzling decade if the
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: script in front of me actually said dazzling decade instead
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the producer he just wrote ten your career. You sound
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: like you sound like Mariah Carey. I was doing a
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Fresh Air Fun event with her and she was the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: MC and she was reading lauding somebody, and she's like,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: I think this is true. I didn't write this. Ah. Yep,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: thank you for joining us. Tiki our second guest as
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: a golf expert University of Florida alone and co star
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: of the beloved Action Network, showed the Gimme her weekly
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: betting picks have helped her drive chip and put her
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: way into America's heart. It's Amanda Rose. I'm so excited
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: to be here with you all, especially with Tiki. You know,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: this is the second week in a row that I've
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: gotten to be on a zoom call in some capacity
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: with Tiki, So I don't know who he's piste off
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: in his life to deserve to have to be with
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: me twice in a row. It I'm excited to be here.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: I'm very competitive, so I need to win. Like Tiki
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: has his athletic accolades, Chad, you have your professional accolades,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: and Simon has his betting accolades, and I have nothing.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: So I need to win this. I need a need it.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I want you to win so badly, only second to
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Simon Hunter and maybe third to Tiki Barbera. I guarantee
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: you come in a top three place today. Here's how
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: the game is played today. You'll all answer two kinds
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: of questions. First, traditional trivia questions about sports, sports betting
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: in the world at large, second, completely subjective and totally
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: assinine open ended questions or prompts that I alone will judge.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: As Simon noted, I will do my best to make
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: sure he wins. To accumulate points, you must answer the
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: trivia questions correctly, and also convince me that your responses
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: to those open ended prompts are better than the responses
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: from your opponents, because, just like sports betting, you can't
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: get him. All right, let's begin, So what would you
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: little maniacs like to do? First? Part one? Oh my god.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: The NFL Draft aftermath the draft last week was crazy intense.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Of course, Tiki was a guest contestant on our game
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: show What's the Line with Darren Revel hosted buying Amanda Rose,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: and the highly anticipated NFL Draft didn't disappoint, with plenty
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: of crazy storylines, gambling intrigue, and huge buffo better than
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Oscar ratings Amanda. Betting markets went crazy on draft day
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: as rumors spread about the forty pick at number three.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: The whispers and Simon Hunter were right, and QB tray
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Lance flipped from a plus two fifty underdog to a
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: minus two fifty favorite before the Niners selected him. Now
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: San Francisco has two quarterbacks with small school roots. Jimmy
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Garoppolo went to Eastern Illinois and Lance Rise from North
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Dakota State. Okay, here's the question. A man without small
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: school roots is their coach Kyle Shanahan, who played college
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: football at this massive, massive program, the only Big twelve
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: school with its own television network. It is not Penn
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: State of Texas the Longhorn Network. Prairies, guys are huh
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Big ten. Yeah, there's nothing you can do. I just
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I my ears don't work. Um, it's fine not starting
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: with you to eke out the win. Simon linebacker Grant Steward,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: who played at the University of Houston and hales from
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: nearby Conrow, was this year's Mr Irrelevant as the last
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: pick in the draft. Also irrelevant is whether Steward loves
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: the most famous song of this Houston based rapper, which
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: begins with the lyrics they see me rolling they hayten
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: patrolling and trying to catch me ride and dirty a millionaire,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: They sell that is correct way to go. I knew
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: you would get the rap based question because I know
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: how much you love it. Chad. I'll dominate the show
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: if it's on mid two thousands of rap I know
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: you would, I know you would Tiki. For the fifteen
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: consecutive year, the good old Southeastern Conference dominated the NFL draft.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: A record breaking sec players were taken, which is of
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: the entire draft. Coming in second place was this conference,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: which had fifty one players drafted, including Notre Dame star
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Liam Eikenberg. This is very interesting trick question. It is
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: because Notre Dame is an independent, along with b y
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: U and a few others, but they were a member
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: of the a c C. So I have to go
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: with my former conference as University of Virginia, lum, the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Atlantic Coast Conference. You are correct, and I kind of
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: feel like Matt Mitchell did it exactly that way, like
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: very much tried to trick you into not answering correctly,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: but you are too smart for that. Dicky, you get
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: a point. Simon Hunter, you get a point. Amanda Rose,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: you're gonna You're gonna make a big comeback, all right.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers was the talking draft night after rumors swirled
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: about a potential trade of the Broncos and Denver. Super
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Bowl odds dropped from seventy to one to twelve to
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: one at some sports books. Rogers would reportedly consider hosting
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Jeopardy full time in lieu of a return to the Packers.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: A crazy turn of events. Your job here is to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: pitch me an even crazier NFL career, jump select another
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: NFL superstar and another entertainment gig, and sell us on
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: why we need to make it happen. For example, Marshawn
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Lynch should stop retiring and on retiring and just host
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Cash Cab. I feel like if Tiki doesn't win this,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I don't know how he could be on this game
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: because we're catering to the original walk away from massive
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: NFL career for big entertainment. So how about an NFL
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: star walks away and goes and puts on Kinky Boots
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: on Broadway. That actually happened. Football great, and my former
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: teammate Kinky Barber's here to make a big announcement. I'm
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: doing Kinky Boots for a six week round. This is
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: my first time in public and red tall high heels
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: and come up to my time. That's right, That's totally right. Simon,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: give me your answer. Let's let Tiki figure out which
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: one of his true life answers he can use and
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: then sign you can give me your answer first, So
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: mine simply because I just missed him. I miss Andrew Luck.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: I miss everything about the guy, his flip phone, the
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: weird way talk. I can only imagine if he was
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: hosting like he's in the architect A show with him
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: just going around being like, oh yeah, there's the Golden
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: gay Bridge, look at those worries, and like, I would
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: just love to hear Andrew Luck breaking down architect I
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: missed that guy. So I'm gonna go to Andrew Luck.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: All right, So you would like to have Andrew Luck
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: play again so he can retire and then go host
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: where he can critique architecture. That's a terrible fucking answer
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: because he's already retired. Yeah, there's no way you're winning
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: that one, and I want nothing more than you to win. Yes, okay,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I have a good one for you. So. I have
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: six kids and they range from eighteen almost nineteen is
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: about to go to Princeton, to a four year old
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and my four year old. Obviously, my my second kids
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: are with my second wife. My four year old and
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: I watched a show that I haven't in years, The
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Muppet Show. It would happen to be on one of
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: these streaming platforms and I want. I'm sitting there, God,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I missed the Muppets, man, I missed the Muppets. So
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: here's my here's what I'm going to offer. Pat Mahomes,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: who has one of the greatest voices you've ever heard, unique,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: great voices, and I saw this dub of him as
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Kermit the Frog. So Pat Mahomes, he can moonlight, doesn't
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: have to retire, maybe he can partially retire. Uh needs
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to bring back Jim himp Tenson's Muppets with the with
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: the old dudes in the in the balcony screaming down
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: with Fozzy's taking the stupid phone calls and Patrick Mahomes going,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: hey guys, yeah, wait, what's what. Let's let's let's go
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: play some football tonight. Pat Mahomes as Kermit with the Muppets.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: That needs to happen. My kids will love it. That
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: is a great answer. Not only did Tick get to
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: mention that he's got a smart kid going to Princeton,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: which is fantastic, he also got to mention Patrick Mahomes
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: and he didn't even have to go into his Broadway career.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: That is next level of research guys. Amanda, I don't know.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I'm really excited about this one. Okay, let's hear it.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: I mean it's it's a I get fired after, but
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: we'll see. So I think Gronk should become a stripper,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: now if that's the wrong type of entertainment, and I
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: was like, okay, so he could become a stripper in
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: the remake of Magic Mike, but it would be Magic
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Gronk x x L. His signature move would be crushing
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: bud light lines between his thighs. But he would get
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: injured because one time he would forget. Instead of using
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: a can, he would use a bottle. So he'd be
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: sideline for a little bit, and then when he comes back,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: he'll be better than ever. And he already has four
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl rings, right, and we know strippers like rings,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: so it just depends. I'll think his fingers are to
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: see if it'll work. I gotta say, there are so
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: many levels of creativity there. I thought Tiki was going
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: to run away with this, and Amanda, uh, you just
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: proved in about sixty seconds the levels of double entendres
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: and where your head has to go to imagine in
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: picture everything you just said about Grunk become if you
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: had just said Grunk becoming a stripper, which he's halfway
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: to doing in practically every video he's ever done that
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: is on social media. You added rings, you added can crushing,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: you added a movie role. Well well done, Amanda Rose.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: That was fucking fantastic. You definitely win that. You know what.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: I want to go off scripture for a second, because
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: obviously we've alluded to the fact Tiki had a Pro
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Bowl career playing. You left it at the peak of
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: your game, and you went on to an incredibly fruitful
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: career in media and entertainment since then, and you did
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: not have to retire. Was there any moment after you
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: retired where someone called you where you considered or were
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: tempted to come back immediately immediately after I retired, this
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: is probably two weeks before I start at the Today Show.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: A right, I'm getting ready to go sit next to
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Matt Lauer and Meredith and John Druden calls me through
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: my brother. Obviously, they put me on a plane, flew
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: me to Tampa and tried to get me to come
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: out of retirement right after I retired. This is oh seven,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: So I retired at the end of oh six, oh seven,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Season oh seven. He flies me down and says, I
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: need a guy like you. Was gonna walk in the
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: locker room. The guys are gonna respect the hell out
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: of him. You we can win, and we need your
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: type of energy and production. Right everybody in the NFL.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: I have a dream of winning a super Bowl. I'm
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: really not into dreams. Okay, I'm in nightmar We're not
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: trying to go to the Gator Bowl. We're trying to
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: go to the super Bowl. And to do that you
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: gotta really try to end somebody's drink. So get into that.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: And I honestly considered it for a while because me
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: and my twin had been teammates our entire lives until
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: we got drafted into the NFL. Free agency came, but
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: it never really He stayed there, I stayed in New York.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: We never really had a chance except in Pro Bowls,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: and here it was. It was like right there. All
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I had to do was unretired. But I would have
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: screwed the Giants so bad, uh, and I probably would
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: have missed my opportunity to go on network television, So
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: I said no, I turned it down. So how tempted
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: were you though, like very forty eight hours twenty four hours,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Like what was that process? I was there for two days,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: just under forty eight hours, and my brother is like, dude,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: you gotta do it this, come on, man, like we could,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: we could live to dream, like how many opportunities do
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: you get like this? But I ultimately realized that my
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: body just couldn't take it anymore. I had ten years
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: and a lot of carries over the last three in
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: particular in New York, and I was ready to do
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: something else, so I said no. But it was very,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: very tempting. It's so amazing too, because you were so
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: ahead of your time, like you obviously were aware of
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: the effects was having your body and you stepped up
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: in it. Yeah, surreal talking you right now because I'm
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: just like, you don't even know how much effect you
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: and your brother had on Eagles fans lives, but not
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: positive there, Like why do you say that? Because anytime
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I meet an Eagles fan, it's kind of like this
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: love hate thing that's happening, right, Like, oh, we respect you,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: but I hate the hell out of you. The first
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: thing I always say is like, I guarantee you you
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: hate my brother more and They're like, yeah, you're right,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: you know, because like as an Eagles fan, I remember
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: being at those Vet games in the stadium and it's like,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: you know, the worst people could think of a Philadelphia
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: there and they're just gunning for your blood. And then
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: as soon as your brother had that pick six in
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, dude, it immediately shifted for no one ever
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: mentioned Teake ever again. That's right, it was your brother.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: For the rest of my life, I see Tailgates or
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: your brother's jersey whatever being burned or whatever for the
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: next five years. I mean, he is a Forklow legend
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: in the Pephia area. By the way, the last touchdowns
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: scored an a Vet before they tour that hell hole
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: down Rod Day Barber ninety three yards at his back
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: all the way, pointing at his back, say my name
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Eagles dropiced. Oh godly Barber's fly. You know that. I'm glad.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: I asked the questions to bring Simon a little bit
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: of here we go, Baby come Back, and this is
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: part two, Baby Come Back. This week, the Cleveland Cavaliers
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: signed former star Anderson Verijao to a ten day contract.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: He hasn't played an NBA game since two thousand seventeen,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: but has remained beloved in Northeast Ohio. Very Jao is
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: certainly not the first athlete to dust off his uniform
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: and return to actions. So let's talk about a few. Amanda,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Considered by many to be the greatest of all time,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: this soccer player retired from his Brazilian club in seventy two.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: But all you have to say was Brazilian great. It
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: was pale. Listen, you totally screwed up that first question,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: but your last two answers way to go. You should
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: probably get an extra point just for answering before I
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: got to finish. Signon red Far has been referred to
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: as the undisputed king of the fake retirement. He never
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: knew when to hold him and when to fold him
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: when it came to his own career. In his two
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: decades in the NFL, he ended up playing for four
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: teams name them. I got the Jets, I got the Vikings,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: the Packers in Atlanta. You are correct, sir, Tiki. This
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame defense and back unretired in two thousand
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: four to play two seasons for the Baltimore Ravens and
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: once said football is my wife, Baseball is my mistress,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Deon Sanders, Dion Sanders Prime Time another Atlanta one. That's
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: right right, I like that. No wind hold of everybody,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: no wink away. Here's your story. As everybody knows, this
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: podcast is really just an excuse for me to sing.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: So I'm uh number one, number two. We obviously work
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: at a gambling company. And uh, when I was in
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: fifth grade, I went to overnight camp and I sang
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: at the talent show and the song that I sung
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: the Gambler by Kenny Right. Of course you knew then.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: You knew that. Did Dean Sanders Tiki? Did Dean Sanders
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: ever tackle you? Yes? Yes, alright, alright, hold on, I'm
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: gonna stick take my camera, all right, all right? On
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: my right foot, there's a bump on my tilt. Can
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: you see it? Oh? Yeah, right there. It's because I
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: sprained that joint in a game against the Dallas Cowboys.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: It was on It was a game where he returned
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: the kickoff for a touchdown at the after we scored
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: to take the lead, he returned to kickoff for a touchdown.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: They got called back because he illegally for lateral here
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: if anybody remembers that, well, I set up the winning
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: field goal because I gotta pass across the middle. I
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: juked the linebacker was running down the sideline. I'm like, dude,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: I'm walking off touchdown. Here comes Dion from the other
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: side of the field and I'm like, dude, what the
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: hell is that? Because he was so fast, just flying,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: and he jumped on my back and pulled me down
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: and it twisted my toe and it and it created
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: this like joint sprain, which if you don't take care
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: of it turns into a callous right and and it
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: solidifies in the bone. So I have this forever mark
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: on my toe from Dion Sanders hawking me down as
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: I was about to walk off win a touchdown open
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: Giant Stadium because he was so fast. So, yes, he
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: did tackle me in my career. Wow, I feel like
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: I could say any name and any moment in football
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: and you would be able to explain something that was
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: very specific that happened to you that never in a
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: million years what I thought this would have started with. Yes,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: look at this bone callous on my toe. You're good, alright, Amanda.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: If Brett Farb is the king of fake retirements, Michael
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Jordan's might be the king of real ones. At the
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: age of thirty eight, he unretired one more time to
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: play for this nb A team. I mean, I want
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to say the Bulls, but that has to be wrong,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: the Washington Wizards. I feel like if I said to Tiki,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: tell me your best Michael Jordan's story, he would have
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: a Michael Jordan's me. And you know, the Lake Tahoe
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Golf tournament in puts on um, it's amazing. I only
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: played in it once because I suck and I literally
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: felt like I was going to hit people that are
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: standing on the sides, So I didn't only played in
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: it one time, and I forget where I finished. But
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. So the next time I go, my brother,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: who is a good golfer, is saying, dude, you gotta come,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: you gotta just play. I'm like, dude, I'm not playing.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: He's like, well, caddy for me. I was like, all right, cool,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: I'll caddy for you. And so I went out and
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: caddy for him and he plays braid. It is what
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: it is. Afterwards, you know, that's like a ship shell
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: that I think. It's like, play golf, go get hammered.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: And so me and Rerandi finishes round, get dressed, cleaned up,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: go out to drink, get a drink, and we walk
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: into this club and like back in the corner is
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: this like dude, and I can't really can't really see
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: what it is. We got our drinks and all of
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: a sudden, we here Barbara Brothers, fucking Barbara Brothers sitting
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: in the cut with me, and I'm like, the hell
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: is that? It was Michael Jordan's. Then we came over,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: we dapted him, said what's up? Man? He was sitting
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: like way in the cut and it was it was
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: cool man. I was like, dude, Michael Jordan knows who
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: the hell we are, So yeah, I have I had
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: a Michael Jordan's story that and then you proceeded to
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: gamble away a hundred and fifty dollars on who would
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: have who would have most parts? The next day. Yeah,
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: I completely walked away because I knew that he likes
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: the gamble and I had didn't have the money to
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: gamble with Michael Jordan's. Nobody has the money to gamble
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: with Michael Jordan's. Simon, a bad back and Hodgkins lymphoma
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: diagnosis led to this Hockey Stars retirement, but He returned
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: in two thousand, becoming just the third NHL player to
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: return to the ice after his own Hall of Fame induction. Tiki.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: It was hardly a victory lap when this legendary scrambler
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: unretired to join an NFC North team leading one of
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: the greatest offenses in NFL history. Just one year later.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Who was this player? Randall Cunningham. All right, here we
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: go the prompt. They say, absence makes the heart grow fonder,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: and that's as true in sports betting as anywhere else.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: If you couldn't magically bring back one star athlete in
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: their prime to make their sport more fun to watch
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: and to bat on, who would you choose? Tiki Europe.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: It's easy for me, Bo Jackson. Bo knows this, and
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Bo knows that. But Bo no, no crap, because Bo
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: can't wrap. But he probably could in today's society, because
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: he could put it out on his own Instagram or
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: other social media platform and he'd be rapping and all
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: these boys would be like, dude, I love that guy,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Like little kids, I love that guy. And then when
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: they get older and he's still playing, and he goes
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: for a hundred and fifty and two quarters against whoever
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: he's playing. Bo Jackson would make sport fun. Whatever sport
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: he's playing, he could run up walls in the outfield. Hell,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: he might be playing cricket or soccer. At this point,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: international soccer is becoming a big deal. So giv me,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: give me Bo Jackson. I couldn't agree more. As a
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: kid of the eighties, Bo Jackson to me, just I
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: could have watched the guy play anything at any time
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: all day. That's that's I mean in those old highlights,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: in those big pads, and how fast he was and
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: how he would bowl people over. It was amazing, Amanda.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with Anthony Kim. We know he
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: retired in two thousand and fourteen. He took the whatever
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: the the insurance payout from the PGA Tour. I think
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: got ten million out of it to never play golf again.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: He was only on tour for four years. He had
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: four wins. He played in a Ryder Cup, he played
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: in the President's Cup. He was dominant in match play.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: He had this really like fiery energy. And now if
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: we could just bet on Anthony Kim in even just
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: a Ryder Cup or Presidents Cup, how fun would that be.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: I mean he beat Sergio and Sunday singles of the
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: O eight Ryder Cup. I mean the US went on
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: to lose. But if Anthony Kim could come back and
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: be Anthony Kim, I mean he was just a kid
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: when he retired, and now he doesn't even play golf anymore,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: and he likes Vegas, he likes to gamble. I think
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: he'd be a good guy to try to get on
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: a show sometime for us. That is a really good idea.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: He's one of those guys who it's such a mystery
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: and he so dropped off the face of the earth
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: and what and his gambling habits are are pretty legendary. Wow,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Amanda Man, I want Tiki to win, but you keep
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: coming on the radar, solid man. That is a great
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: simon what do you got? I felt like this one
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: was pretty easy as well. It's there's four major sports
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: here in American there's only one sport with unanimous great
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: one and then no one can really argue against. You
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: can literally take away goals at Gretzky scored and he's
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: still the NHL points leader, So like that's you can't
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: make it up. The guy is literally so far above
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: greater than anyone else ever played hockey. I would love
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: to do first period over props on Gretzky, give me
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: it all. I wish Gretzky was back because he was
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: just like cash cow for gamblers. Wow. The only time
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: I've ever liked hockey was in the early in mid
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: eighties when Gretzky was playing, and I would pretend I
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: was Wayne Gretzky and go down to my basement and
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: uh with a tennis ball and a hockey stick, hit
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: it against the wall as hard as I could. You
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: add in the element of being able to bet on
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: his first period goals scored or first period total points scored. Simon,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: you win. To get Wayne Gretzky in his prime and
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: to be betting on Wayne Gretzky in real time, that
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: is a match made in heaven. I love Anthony Kim,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: I love Bo Jackson. They're all great answers. I wish
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: I could get everyone on the point. But Simon gets
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: the point. It is time to add up the scores
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: right now as we head into part three, uh Tiki
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: has two points, Amanda has two points. How does Simon
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: have four points? That's insane. Simon has chat it must
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: be rigged. That's that's bullshit, all right. Here we go
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Part three. The beginning of May is usually a whole
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: hume week on this sports calendar, but some noteworthy headlines
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: are definitely worth remembering, Amanda. On Monday, the Washington Wizards
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: won and covered versus the Pacers, and Russell Westbrook recorded
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: his second career twenty rebound twenty assist game. Personally, I
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: think Russell Westbrook has cheapened the triple double, but that's
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: another story. Only one other player in NBA history has
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: a twenty rebound twenty assist game. It's the same guy
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: who dropped one hundred points on the New York Knicks
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: in six two. Was it Chamberlain? Wilt Chamberlain is correct.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Earlier this week, Portland's Carmelo Anthony moved to tenth place
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: on the all time leading scorers list for the NBA.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: He should pass Moses Malone for ninth place later this season,
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: but as unlikely to reach the aforementioned Will Chamberlain, who
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: seventh besides Carmelo. Moses Malone and Will Chamberlain named four
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: of the other seven names on the NBA of the
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: names all time scoring less so I'm gonna say Lebron, Yes,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say Kareem. Yes. I was gonna save
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Jordan for the last one because that's the easy one.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: There are one, two four more on the list, Shaquille O'Neil. Correct,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: who are the other ones on the list? You had
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Kareem also, Karl Malone would have been acceptable. Lebron, Kobe, Oh, Koby,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, what the hell? What's wrong with me? Jordan's
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: dark Navitsky and Shack Simon. This has been a week
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: to forget for the Houston Astros. They had to return
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: to this stadium, the site of their two thousand seventeen
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: ALCS road games, for the first time since they're signed.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Stealing scandal broke early last year named the stadium? Did
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: I literally drank all week? And I have no idea
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: who they played this week? Cap it was there? The
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: Yankees of the Red Sox they played in that so
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: they either won the World Series that year they won
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: of the year before. I guess I'll go Yankees, just
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: because they're usually in the playoffs every year, so I'll
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: just I'll go Yankees. You are correct, Yankee Stadium, here
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: we go. Are you drinking every day? This week because
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: you won six figures on Matt Jones and not going
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: through it in the draft. Yeah. I mean, dude, if
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: you want to hear a really embarrassing story, I'm I'm
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: willing to throw it out there on this live podcast. Um.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: So I have. I recently got my heartbroken and I
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: have people trying to set me up now that I
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: have a ton of money, and a girl set me
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: up with her sister, and I didn't realize I was
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Facebook friends with her sister until it was three in
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: the morning and I've been drinking and of course I'm
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: clicking through a pictures. I liked her picture at three
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: in the morning. So it was probably the worst moment
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: of my life because I literally liked it, and she
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: texts me in the morning she said, do you like
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: my sister's photo at three in the morning. So I'm
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: killing the dating game chat. I absolutely. I'm glad it
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: was about you being heartbroken, because if you didn't bring
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: it up, I was going to bring it up. I'm sorry,
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: but money makes the heart girls less caring. It's true
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: what I disagree with you, guys. I feel like all
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: the money in the world doesn't matter if if your
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: heart isn't full of love. I wanted signmon to to
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: weigh in on my genius with someone that does have
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: a lot of money. That's super lonely. I completely agree,
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: it's hard. I told you, I'm literally selling the house
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: right now because I hate being in a house by myself.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: It's so depressing. It's just like, oh, memories over there,
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: memories over there. I'm alone. I'm gonna die alone. Had
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: the heartbreak. I'm sorry. Yeah, dude, it's the worst, bro,
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: But um no, it's like I'm a couple of months now,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: so it's like all gravy. But at the same time,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, dude, every morning you wake up when
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: you're single, you're just like, no one's ever gonna love me.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna die alone. So that's the best. The mornings
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: I wake up Stallane in bed, Simon, I'm never going
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: to leave you, I hope, Chad. I texted you. Chad
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: made some nice little joke via text, and I said, Chad,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: never leave me exclamation model because I'm so scared Chad
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: is just not going to show up now that he's
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: the wealthiest Manish show, good lord, good lord, listen. I
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: didn't play in the NFL for ten years and then
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: going to Broadway and massive fame and fortunate media. I
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: don't have nearly as much money as Tiki. I think
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: you didn't buy dose coin, though you've got a ton
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: of dogecoin. I didn't get any dosecoin because I was like,
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: this is bullshit. I cannot buy a crypto based on
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: a meme. And of course now it's like now it's
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: like going for god knows how much. But then you
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: got to convert it to bitcoin in order to get
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: your money out of it, and you gotta get your
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: money at a big coin. Yeah, not complicated at all.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I do watch the bitcoin every day because I got
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: some of the bitcoin, I got some of the ethereum.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: I do watch it every day. I tell my wife,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: oh my god, I can't believe what's happening here, and
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: she goes, we're never going to see that money. You might,
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: you might, I hope. So we should create a Tiki
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Barber crypto. All right, here we go, Part of three.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: Despite its pedestrian name, Medina Spirit won the one forty
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: seven running of the Kentucky Derby last Saturday. As a name,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: Medina Spirit pales in comparison to past winners like war Emblem,
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: American Pharaoh, California Chrome, and thunder Gulch, even this year's
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: last place finisher, the whimsical Soup and Sandwich. It's more
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: fun to say so. Drawing inspiration from the world of
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: sports or sports betting, sell us on the coolest possible
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: name for a racehorse, looking for names like no trade clause,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: Windy Wrigley under or Mark Davis haircut Amanda. I feel
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: like you'll kill this. We're talking about a literation earlier,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: so I have some double alliteration for you. Now, if
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: I had a real horse, not one of those fake
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: computer horses that Darren Revel and all the other people
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: with all the crypto like, um, I'm going with Tony
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Fane top five because you can't win. He's got a
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: bet terom across the board. You bet him top five,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: top ten, top twenty. He ain't gonna win. He has
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: the Puerto Rico when the curse has been broken by
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Victor Hoblin. But who the hell knows when Tony Finale
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: is actually gonna break through. I mean, Tony t final
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: top two would also work, but that's too many t
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: so Tony Finale top five is the race horse. It'll
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: come in second every single time. All right, here's what
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: you did. A It's a great answer. Be you took
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: a golfer who all of us have bet way too
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: much on over the years, who has never delivered for us,
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: and it's always disappointing because he's always on the cusp.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: And you translated to how he would perform if his
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: name were a horse, and it would be equally heartbreaking
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: and equally bad bait and even miserable. That is next
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: level simon, Mr Lonely Hearts. I can't thop it, but
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: someone that has spent one third of their life inside
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: of casinos, I can say with assurance that this is
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: the one thing you can say that makes everyone in
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: the rooms stop what they're going to watch you. And
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: that's all in. So find a horse. I name it
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: all in because it's just one of those things where
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: when I think of gambling, I think of one phrase
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: that stops everyone, and that's when you hear someone say
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: all it. Everyone just has to stop. So that's why
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: I'll go for the horse. I like that answer. Let
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: me ask a different question, Uh, what if we named
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: a horse mush? Because that way like it almost takes
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: the stink off the whole thing, right Like you are.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: You are confronting the demon head on and saying, challenge me.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: I am going to call the horse Mush, and you
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: will want to bet on this horse because it will
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: defy the odds every single time. You'll get great odds.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: If you name your horse Mush. No one's gonna betting
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: on Mush. You might as well name it never been late.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you're going to go down that road,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: it's like if you're thinking of really like names that
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: make no sense, that are just weird to say, Mush
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: never been laid. Both work, But but then the irony
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: if he should happen to win the Kentucky Jarreby, that's
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: stud fee man, that'll be awesould be amazing, right, who's
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: that over? They're getting it on? Oh that's never been
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: really um true story. Phil Ivy possibly the greatest gambler
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: in history, the greatest poker player in history, high stakes
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: gambler in every single way. I once lost him seven
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: playing crops and he looked at me and he goes,
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: you're fucking mush, And that is a thing you never
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: want to be called by. Phil Ivy because he is
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: as scary as anybody you've ever met when you were
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: confronting him head on. Alright, So I don't know if
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: I can top Amanda. All In is pretty awesome until
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: you go all in and sit back and then you
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: fucking lose. But I will give you a true story
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: which may actually help. So Darren Ravel, this is probably
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: about the time that he joined Action Network, put out
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: a tweet and said, your name and I'm going to
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: now assign this name to this horse that you're talking
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: at out your name, um has to be the last
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: drink that you had and the last bet that you won.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: So let's back up. We had just had DeAndre Wilder
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: on our radio show, on my radio show, and I
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: was all in on DeAndre Wilder Tyson Fury, Tyson Fury,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: DeAndre Wilder Tyson Fury. Is he looked fat, overweight the
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: first time, like that, this is he's not gonna win.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: We got all hyped up on DeAndre because he talks
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: a huge game and the whole time like dude, I'm
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: betting this guy, betting this guy and betting this guy.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: Then you can look at the odds and it's just
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: nothing looked good right, it's like nothing. I don't trust it,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: so I don't want to bet it. And so I
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: ended up having about ten fifteen dollars left in my
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: account and said, you know what, I'm just gonna pick
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: the highest payout and it was Tyson Fury by knockout
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: in the seventh round. He fucking knocked him out in
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: the seventh I'm sitting there like, wait, that did not
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: just happened. That did not just happen. I should have
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: put two thousand dollars on this thing, as opposed to
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: do And so in response, I happened to be looking
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: at Twitter. In response to darn Revelle's tweet, I wrote
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: black Fury because I was drinking Johnny Walker black Wow,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: like that. Do you know what? It's not as good
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: as Tony Fen Top five, but the story is better,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: and so it happened. It has the benefit of being true.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: It has the benefit of being true, and you want
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: some money in the spirit of it being based on
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: a winning bat and it ties back to Action Network
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: and it brings in revel Tiki Barber, you know what,
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: you know what, here's what let me tell you. That's
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: so Tiki Barber. I love the inside joke, There we go,
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: there we go. Right now we are at Amanda three points,
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: Tiki four points, Simon five points. As we go into
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: the grand finale, the topic is like father, like son.
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: So first you have to decide how much you guys
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: would like to risk. What you will do is close
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: your eyes. Now hold up your fingers with your wager
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: amount so Matt Mitchell can see them. Here we go.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: In the first round of the NFL Draft last week,
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: J C. Horne and Patrick certain the second were selected
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: number eight and number nine overall. Both of their fathers
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: were stars in the NFL, following a time honored tradition
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: of elite pro athlete progeny. One of the best examples
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: of this is Calvin Hill and his son. Calvin was
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: one of the greatest running backs in Ivy League history.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: He was a first round pick, one rookie of the Year,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: and became the first Dallas Cowboy to rush for a
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: thousand yards in a season. He won Super Bowl six
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: in two and almost exactly nine months later, his son
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: was born. Like his father, his son attended a prestigious university,
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: was a first round traft pick and one Rookie of
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: the Year. Unlike his father, he didn't play football. He
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: didn't win a Pro championship, but he did win to
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: n C Double A titles and an Olympic gold medal
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: to go along with seven All Star appearances. Who is
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: Calvin Hillsan and play cats? When man? All right, Tiki,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: you go first, and then give your best story about
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: this person. Um, the answer is obviously Grant Hill, who
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: played at Duke University, who now is a partner with
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: a friend of mine and some real estate business. But
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Grants a great, great dude, here's a great story for you.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: Though obviously I have an identical twin brother, and I
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: played football as he played football. My father, James Barber,
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: was a great football player at Virginia Tech with the
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: Hokeyes back in the early seventies. And in the early
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: seventies they didn't have black and white roommates except for
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: my father did. His roommate was the head coach of
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl winning Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Bruce Arians. So
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: I've known Bruce Arians literally my entire life. And my
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: mom tells me these stories. And my mom and dad
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: would meet because the black athletes would go hang out
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: together and the white athletes would go hang out together
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: with the white camp students, and I said, well, what
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: about Bruce. What did Bruce do? My mom said, Bruce
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: was the coolest guy in the room. Now, he was
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: the coolest guy in the room then, whether he is
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: with the white kids or the black kids. So that
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: family thing exists in my life all over the place
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: whole we shit, Yeah, that is an amazing story, didn't
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: I didn't see that one coming at all. There you go,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: family man, Family doesn't matter the color of your skin.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: I wish I could give you extra points for the story,
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: but I can't write now because we're at the end
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: of the game. Sign in your next I'm embarrassed that
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: I knew that was grand Hill Dukes Duke's grand Hill.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: I just put a junior at the end of his
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: name because I had no idea who was going to be.
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: So I was hoping he was like a sofiopath. He
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: named himself his kid after him. So you went with
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: Calvin Hill Jr. I did, Okay, Simon, what did you do?
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: I had no idea, I said, Georgie, But I mean
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: I got the letter G right. What the funky is
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: going on here? I don't understand this, like the goddamn millennials.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: Grant Hill is a Hall of Fame basketball player who
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: runs USA Basketball who has been broadcasting games for like
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: as long as you guys have been alive, and you
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: don't know his history. All right? Uh, Tiki, how many
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: points did you wager? I wagered four points. You had
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: four points, but now you have eight. Uh, Simon, I
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: guarantee you wager five points. So now that you have Amanda,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: how many points did you wager? All of them? Chat?
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: All three? You had three points, you now have zero.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: Tiki Barber, you are so Tiki Barber. You are our
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: champion of the Thursday Thundered. You know what, you know what.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: I'm kind of glad you want I normally I wanted
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: Simon to win, but you brought so many good stories
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: to the show today, and then you ended it in
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: a heartwarming fashion with a story about a beloved coach
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: who I think has become such a sort of a
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: mythical figure in football this past year, especially because of
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: winning the Super Bowl and the way he had sort
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: of created offenses that have have really spurred creativity in
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: the NFL. I just think like that was amazing. Thank you,
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it. You did have Tom Brady though, so
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: it's a little bit easier for me because I'm old.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: Obviously I've known who he is forever and he's had
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: a great and I covered the NFL for a long time,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: so like, like I knew him when he was with
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: the Steelers and he had a great rep there, And
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: he was never a guy who like you had to
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: worry about. He wasn't going to get you woul get
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: answered to something. And then he had that great success
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: with the Colts uh in an interim basis, and then
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: amazing success with the Cardinals. Like he was a guy
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: he always thought should have gotten his chance to get
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: a head coaching job earlier, and the fact that he
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: got to win with the right guys and the right
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: team and came back and like it worked out. He's
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: a guy you root for. Agree. He was ages them
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: out of of Plattsburg and he basically on a whim,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: takes a job, wins coach of the Year with check
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Bogano getting sick, that goes Arizona, wins Coach of the
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: Year again himself, has health issues, ends up retiring, decides
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: he doesn't want to do Booth working, and CBS goes
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: back to the game, says, I can fix Jameis Winston,
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: but Jamie's those thirty interceptions and thirty three touchdowns, both
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: of which led the league. And he says, you're great,
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: but you know what, You're not gonna work for me.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: Tom Brady, come on down here, let's do something special together,
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: and we know what happened. Amazing, totally amazing. Before we
