Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Natee daily wager. I ain't picking winners but I am
- 0:10making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
- 0:20January 26th, 2025. And, well, that didn't go
- 0:26anywhere the way that I was hoping it would go last night.
- 0:30It, you know, I guess that's kind of the way it goes.
- 0:33Every once in a while things turn around on me.
- 0:36But hey, I can't complain too much.
- 0:39It was, you know, back and forth this week almost, almost came
- 0:44out on the positive side for the week.
- 0:46You know, ended up three and four for this week, which is
- 0:48better than one and six, which I think is what I went the week
- 0:51before and perhaps even the week before that.
- 0:54So you know, hey, incremental improvement.
- 0:58All right, today's the day. Championship Sunday, right?
- 1:02Not the Super Bowl, not Super Bowl Sunday.
- 1:04It's Championship Sunday. We got the AFC Championship, we
- 1:07got NFC Championship. Of course, we got Bills by a
- 1:10billion in the later game, but I'm focused on the early game
- 1:14for this wager. We got the Washington Commanders
- 1:18going in to Philly going into the link.
- 1:21I know they've blessed that field with their holy water.
- 1:23They've done everything they can to try to give themselves an
- 1:26advantage. And I tell you what, I think
- 1:28this, I think this is actually going to be the game that's the
- 1:32shootout. I think this is going to be the
- 1:34game that ends up super crazy high.
- 1:37I think this is the game that's going to be going back and forth
- 1:40lead changes, you know, and it's, and it's probably going to
- 1:42end up that way, like in the fourth quarter, Just that's the
- 1:46way that the commanders do it. You know, that's what I've told
- 1:49you all year. Whenever I've been putting my
- 1:51money on them, the crazy stuff's going to happen at the end.
- 1:54And I think today's no different.
- 1:55So I'm looking at the total. It's currently sitting at 47 and
- 1:58a half. A lot of people are taking the
- 2:00under, so I'm actually getting even vig on.
- 2:02This is what I'm seeing and I love that even more.
- 2:05So we're taking the over, taking the even vig, and we're living
- 2:09life. So we're taking over. 47 1/2
- 2:13total points between the Washington Commanders and
- 2:16Philadelphia Eagles in today's NFC Football Championship
- 2:22action. See anything better than that?
- 2:23Pound it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
- 2:25to it and I I know Cousin Vinny's got something for you
- 2:28and I think Gaffer's lurking around too, boys.
- 2:32Ladies and gentlemen, the gaffer is bad English Premier League
- 2:38slate Sunday morning. What is new?
- 2:42I know. I'll, I'll tell you what's old.
- 2:44That is Tottenham playing bad defense.
- 2:47Oh, I'm not sure if there's a team in the English Premier
- 2:51League that plays worse defense than this Tottenham Hotspur
- 2:55squad. Yeah, they got a goal early with
- 2:57Richarlson earlier in the game, but now they're of course down
- 3:00to one to the really poor Leicester squad.
- 3:04But of course, Tottenham can't play defense, so that means
- 3:06Leicester's not scored twice. Anyway, we're in the 50th
- 3:09minute, Not the best game today. Of course, that's coming up
- 3:13later on. Yes, we got the old Manchester
- 3:15United in the headlines. They win once in a while with
- 3:19Ahmad scoring three goals and then sometimes they just get
- 3:22whooped by Brighton. Today they got a match up with
- 3:25Fulham. Fulham's got the good American
- 3:27player, Anderson playing left back, he's been great.
- 3:31We're going to see a draw here. We're going to see a kissing
- 3:33your sister. Nobody wins the three points,
- 3:36one point for each squad. Man United and Fulham, we're
- 3:39going to play a little bit later on.
- 3:41Gaffer is going to let you know what's up, get that money.
- 3:44We got Coles and Vinnie Pink, we got Nate's wager, we got the
- 3:47Bills by a billion. You know it's a Sunday.
- 3:49Good luck, you're going to need it.
- 3:52Here, Colson Vinny Championship Day Sunday, Lock of the week
- 3:58edition, Big week for the NFL, Big week for Nate and big week
- 4:05for Cousin Vinny. We both got stakes in this game
- 4:08besides our wagers and I am here to give you your winner for the
- 4:12week. So at the very least you could
- 4:14enjoy watching these games knowing that you have a sure
- 4:17thing to take to the bank and lock up now for the early game.
- 4:21Cousin Vinny doesn't want to touch it.
- 4:23I am not going to create any bad juju with my Eagles and do
- 4:29anything or have any rooting interests.
- 4:31I just want to watch the game. But but but Cousin Vinny was
- 4:34premature last week with the A.J.
- 4:36Brown game. I should have just pounded on
- 4:39Saquon. I just felt too obvious that it
- 4:40was going to be a Saquon game last weekend and it was and it
- 4:42could be again this weekend. But I'm still hanging on to a
- 4:46hanging on to this A.J. Brown game.
- 4:48It is so long overdue. So for all you guys out there
- 4:51who won action in the early game, I would be looking hard at
- 4:56A.J. Brown.
- 4:56But that's not going to be my lock of the week.
- 4:58My lock of the week goes to the late game and this game really
- 5:02is a coin flip. Casey's getting given a point
- 5:05and 1/2 at home. It's just a rematch of it's just
- 5:09two great teams playing each other.
- 5:10And we've seen this play out many times.
- 5:12And yeah, I'm hoping for another great game.
- 5:15But I'm not going to lie, Cousin Vinnie's hoping for a Buffalo
- 5:17victory. So I, I really, it's tough not
- 5:20to get emotional about these things and, and pick with, with
- 5:24your emotions involved. That's how you lose money.
- 5:27But what I do know is that Buffalo is not going to go
- 5:30quietly and it's definitely going to be a close game that
- 5:34for sure I can go to the Bangkok, right.
- 5:38And So what I want to do here in this late game, I just really
- 5:42want to handicap it so that we have the best advantage.
- 5:44We the biggest advantage we can. And two things I really was kind
- 5:50of just looking at and the over under sitting at 48 1/2 and
- 5:54Buffalo getting a point and a half.
- 5:56I said, you know what, we're going to tease that we're going
- 5:58to tease both of these things this week because I love Buffalo
- 6:01getting 7 1/2. I think that that half a point
- 6:04is a nice, is a nice might be a kicker in the end there, but I
- 6:08don't think it's going to be that close.
- 6:10And I wouldn't be surprised if Buffalo wins.
- 6:12And also teasing that over under down from 48 1/2 to 42 1/2.
- 6:16Well, I just love that and picking the over on that.
- 6:20So Cousin Vinny is going to just focus on the late game, late
- 6:25game teaser. Buffalo getting 7 1/2 points and
- 6:30the over under exceeding 42 1/2 points.
- 6:33And as you guys know, the teaser, both have to hit the
- 6:36win. But Cousin Vinny just knows in
- 6:38his heart deep down that both of these are definitely going to
- 6:40hit. So Cousin Vinny with your lock
- 6:43of the week is the teaser. Take the over and the Bills and
- 6:47the points. So hope everybody enjoys the
- 6:49championship game. We'll catch up with you guys in
- 6:51the Super Bowl. Until then, it's Cousin Vinny
- 6:53with your lock of the week. Don't forget to rate, review,
