  Okay, okay, okay, we're here, we're back, it's 3 for the Money, new episodes every Thursday and
• 0:56
  it's officially the off season. It's officially the off season of football. I mean if you've been
• 1:03
  with the show for a while you know that this is a, you know, it's a sports podcast but really when
• 1:08
  it's football season it's a football podcast and then things intermittently in between.
• 1:14
  But it's officially the off season and honestly not that bad considering everything else that's
• 1:22
  going on but before we get into that let's say hello to the fellas. How are we doing fellas? Chris?
• 1:31
  Doing alright, yeah. First full week without football is weird. Sunday I just, I knew it
• 1:38
  was happening. I mean I lived through it many many times but it was just till Sunday I was sitting
• 1:43
  there like a pig skin needs to be tossed in front of me right now and there just wasn't one.
• 1:49
  And it was weird but you know we're coping betting on College of Basketball and going alright but
• 1:57
  yeah so we're doing alright into this dangerous non-football world that we're living in now.
• 2:03
  Alright Sean how are you?
• 2:09
  Yeah good. I was like, I don't know I'm kind of not missing football yet.
• 2:22
  It did Sunday felt weird but I was like, you know I was coping I was like okay this is this is normal
• 2:28
  you know but yeah Four Nations is it rocks. We get the championship tomorrow very much looking
• 2:41
  forward to that and yeah I've been I've been betting some hoops recently too. Gotta get warm
• 2:51
  for Marches, Marches around the corner so gotta get warm so I've been doing pretty well too.
• 2:59
  I think I went two and one last night and then I bet some hoops on Sunday I bet one on Sunday
• 3:10
  and one on Monday and one both of those so I'm like was it four and one in the last four days?
• 3:16
  I believe so. Yeah the math checks out. Yeah we're not a numbers pod but I did want to
• 3:27
  talk about the Four Nations face-off to start off the show here. It is it's electric and I'm not
• 3:38
  gonna front and if anybody that's listening to this hasn't watched it and enjoys sports
• 3:42
  it is the thing that you should be watching right now that in college basketball obviously.
• 3:48
  I mean the Four Nations isn't on every day right now but it's it's wild you know it's it's crazy
• 3:58
  not to get too deep immediately but the I know the NHL really wanted to or the players really
• 4:05
  wanted a best-on-best tournament with the with the prospective countries and this has this has
• 4:14
  gone off without a hitch truthfully. I mean it's it's it's tremendous like it's weird like I feel
• 4:22
  like going into it like I didn't feel this but I I there's a little voice in the back of my head
• 4:31
  that was like hey they might not care because this is the first one and it's it's sort of replacing
• 4:38
  the All-Star game this year you know it's it's not it's it's not a priority for people no one's
• 4:47
  ever grown up to want to win the the Four Nations face-off tournament nobody's ever done that it's
• 4:54
  never been done and but just like the games that have just come out of it have just been
• 5:02
  amazing honestly like I mean I I said on the show last week I put a unit on USA to take the whole
• 5:10
  thing and they knocked out well they didn't knock out anyone they they beat Canada on Saturday
• 5:18
  that was electric crazy crazy crazy game if if you're not watching that you're not American
• 5:29
  I'll go ahead and say it I'll go ahead and say it but before I really get on my high horse
• 5:35
  does do you guys have anything to say about it it kicks out great no I mean I don't have any
• 5:43
  grabs with I do have just a question like so this is the first one they've done are they
• 5:50
  did they announce this is like the first of many that they're gonna do or it was just like hey we'll
• 5:55
  see all this goes and if it goes well we'll do more I believe that as of right now this is the
• 6:02
  only one that they're going to do because part of the reason why they were doing it is because
• 6:09
  they they were they haven't done the World Cup of Hockey and it's in almost 10 years
• 6:15
  in Graniteo they only do it like on the the off years of the Olympics but they also haven't
• 6:20
  done the Olympics in like 10 years like it's this was sort of meant to take the place of
• 6:28
  of the World Cup of Hockey but also kind of give them hey here's this if you
• 6:36
  will take me fuck off about the Olympics because I mean you know you grow up and you're one to
• 6:44
  play for your country and it's it that's great that is a thing that people grow up to want to do
• 6:49
  and win and so it's it's not it's not known currently if this is a thing that's going to stick
• 6:59
  around or or not it's um I think it's kind of weird to manage it just because like
• 7:10
  there are more than four nations of players that play in the NHL you know and I mean obviously
• 7:15
  like they can obviously add Russia but you know with the you know the global shit going on like
• 7:20
  you know they're not going to do that and you know totally get it totally understandable
• 7:25
  there's a PP whack there's your boo boo fucking take it you know take your legs um
• 7:34
  and so it's uh I I don't know I hope they do it again because like the All-Star Game sucks
• 7:41
  and if you've listened to like pretty much any other podcast like the four nations was going on
• 7:49
  on like as the NBA All-Star weekend was going on and nobody was watching that shit because
• 7:58
  they're because Matt McClung you know certified dog as as first reported on on three for the money
• 8:05
  years ago or last year I can't remember um three years again two years right yeah um
• 8:12
  you know he's he's just going to show up in ball you know and that's that's it that's good you know
• 8:18
  good for him he's probably getting a pay bump maybe hopefully um but it's nobody's gonna fucking
• 8:25
  watch that shit you know and if you turn on it's it's like the first weekend really without
• 8:32
  without football and it's like like these these sports fans are just like what the hell do I watch
• 8:38
  Canada versus America but I can get behind that what is this and it's hockey and it's like oh
• 8:43
  okay they're doing this is sort of the All-Star Game and then it's then it's awesome like come on
• 8:50
  like three fights in the first nine seconds like what are we talking about here like it was just
• 8:58
  it was crazy you know it's it's wild John do you do you have anything to add to this
• 9:03
  um well I I I don't think they would want to do this again to be honest I think the clubs are
• 9:18
  kind of going to be against this whole thing um because you know people be getting hurt
• 9:25
  like Shay Theodore I think he's out like four to six weeks from an injury in this and
• 9:32
  um just to kind of backpedal a little bit um there is something about playing for your nation
• 9:42
  as well that like you know like you said like nobody wakes up and wants to play and like
• 9:49
  wants to win the four nations nobody's ever done that before but uh you will play for your country
• 9:56
  so there there is like I think that is like a driving that is the driving factor of this
• 10:05
  whole thing and it's awesome um you know uh I'm pretty just like man this this the US
• 10:15
  not in a good spot right now um but uh when when us was uh facing Canada I was like man
• 10:24
  I'm a red-blooded American I am gun-ho blast free bird you know all the all the shit I was like
• 10:32
  to beat the fuck out of these guys um but I also had the thought that this could be a great
• 10:43
  alternative to other leagues adopting like this sort of format to make their all-star break better
• 10:53
  like the uh the MLB you know doing some sort of four nations like US Japan Venezuela Dominican
• 11:03
  Republic that'd be awesome um even the NBA like you know US Canada France Serbia probably
• 11:14
  if I had to guess maybe I think they would probably have to do something kind of like
• 11:19
  um like team North America and team Europe because yeah the France probably has the most
• 11:27
  Europeans but in terms of like all-stars they have probably two so but it could be a cool like
• 11:36
  alternative whether you know like just um you know because all all-star games suck they all
• 11:46
  suck now and this is a fantastic alternative to this kind of format but it does come with the price
• 11:55
  in players getting injured um and you know uh Charlie McAvoy he uh I saw today they disclosed
• 12:05
  like his uh his infection like he has an infection in his shoulder AC joint which is like not okay
• 12:14
  like that's very very very not okay um so I hope he's all right as much as I you know don't much
• 12:24
  care for the Boston Bruins I don't know why they've never really done anything to me they're just you
• 12:28
  know the whole mass whole fan base I guess um just kick rocks um but Charlie McAvoy's American
• 12:39
  so what he's American yeah it matters right now it's you know like it's like TJ OC will always be
• 12:48
  an American hero always even though he played for the Blues at the time
• 12:56
  oh yeah you did yeah at the time at the time of that before the shoot out yes he played for the
• 13:01
  Blues and he was a menace in our division um but yeah it rocks um but I I really I'm really
• 13:11
  interested to see how you know this all unfolds after and I'm really excited for tomorrow because
• 13:20
  that's gonna that's gonna slap yeah that's gonna be I'm I'm hoping the US isn't too plagued by
• 13:28
  injuries and because there's apparently also some bug going around like some illness thing
• 13:35
  we're screwed do you know do you know what's going on will there there's some illness coming
• 13:40
  around like I don't I don't know what it's about it's I that's all I know there's an illness and
• 13:49
  like uh I know that Quinn Hughes was flown to Boston but then now it came out that he did not
• 13:58
  because he hasn't been medically cleared to play yeah so uh I don't I don't know they brought um
• 14:08
  I know that they brought in Tage Thompson and Brett Pesci a forward and a defenseman
• 14:14
  and uh because I mean we were playing um Sweden on Monday and we were playing with three lines
• 14:22
  we weren't playing with a full lineup by the end of the game we're playing we're playing down
• 14:28
  yeah and I mean we started the game with I believe five defensemen and 12 forwards
• 14:35
  and then it became five defensemen and nine forwards and so uh I'm uh I'm not I'm not too sure
• 14:42
  what's uh what's the lineup gonna look like I think a lot can happen in 24 hours um from the time
• 14:47
  that we were recording this on Wednesday uh to Thursday when well this comes out Thursday morning
• 14:53
  so hopefully you're you're listening or watching this Thursday morning for for the up and coming game
• 15:00
  today I guess hopefully um so it's uh it's a lot a lot of things can happen and I mean it was
• 15:08
  uh you know when we when we played Canada the first time like Kayle McCar was out he he was sick
• 15:15
  and so it was like yo I I doubled down on us because like I I went into the game I was like
• 15:21
  I'm not gonna bet this and then the first period ended 1-1 and then I I was like I I have to bet
• 15:30
  on the USA right now and luckily for me it was the same line going into the game as it was in the
• 15:37
  first period obviously because it was I mean tied um thoughts were pretty even if I remember correctly
• 15:44
  but yeah it's uh it's it's a great time it's I I hope this uh you know this this changes everything
• 15:53
  and I do have a take about this to get off my chest Chris would you like to say anything before I
• 15:57
  get this this takeoff yeah I just wanted to hear on back to what Sean said about TJ Oshie is now an
• 16:03
  American hero um I used to hate the contrap brothers just because they're scumbags oh yeah no they're
• 16:12
  yes yes I would lay down my life for each of them right now
• 16:16
  yeah like they are they're American heroes yeah now is this it feels great to root for them it
• 16:25
  feels really awesome yeah if they played for the Preds or like like if a guy like that is on your
• 16:32
  team in any sport you love him and I get it now I I've always despised really both of them but
• 16:40
  especially the curly-headed fuck um but yeah I'd love them like I I would take a bullet for each of
• 16:47
  them in a heartbeat they're they're American heroes in my book now so I'm sorry if y'all felt the same
• 16:54
  you're good before before we get into your uh you know what you got to get off your chest um
• 17:02
  was were those fights in response to Canada booing the anthem or was it just like
• 17:14
  fuck you we are us we you are Canada like this is like the major rivalry right now
• 17:21
  uh I I think it was like that was definitely the second one like it is like we're brawling
• 17:28
  regardless uh they didn't they say they had like a group chat before and it was like thinking
• 17:32
  chucks and I forget who else fought I'm there Miller yeah they're both like yeah we're we're
• 17:37
  scrapping like I think they said we're scrapping early I don't know if they intended to be that early
• 17:44
  but um and that's one gripe I've had about this is that getting politicized now is like oh boo our
• 17:51
  anthem fucking see what happens next it's like that had nothing these guys don't like they're not
• 17:57
  they don't care about like maybe a couple of them were like yeah this isn't fun but also like I doubt
• 18:03
  really they cared see yeah I've been I've been seeing stuff on Twitter about it being you know
• 18:09
  political and I'm like is it though and I don't really think it is I think it's just like let's
• 18:15
  just scrap to scrap because we are rivals that game could have been played in like the COVID
• 18:23
  arenas with no fans and they still probably would have scrapped right like I don't the fans had zero
• 18:30
  impact on that okay in my opinion I I feel the same way I just wanted to see what y'all thought or
• 18:38
  if y'all had any other like seen anything else that I hadn't seen or I don't know but yeah I mean
• 18:46
  I think it's just kind of funny how like there's there's just been so many compilations slash
• 18:53
  memes such like like edit like in a video together where it's like oh you're gonna boo our anthem
• 19:00
  we're gonna beat your ass physically yeah and uh I mean objectively that is hilarious like just
• 19:09
  like coming from yeah from from this point of view but realistically you know I don't think
• 19:15
  that that was the reason why okay cool but yeah all right well uh get what you need to off your
• 19:23
  chest we're dying to hear it spit all right I think that the decision to do the four nations face off
• 19:35
  is a top five thing ever to be done in the sport of hockey I think because of all the
• 19:43
  reasons that we went over before the fact that fucking nobody was was watching the NBA all-star
• 19:51
  game it's the first week after the Super Bowl fans are like you know what the hell are we gonna watch
• 19:57
  I'm certainly not gonna watch the NBA all-star game and then they come and they find this and
• 20:02
  they're like oh my gosh the kachuk brothers play for us I live in the US let's I'm I'm gonna watch
• 20:10
  this and it was just electric from the hop I mean you know I just to I mean piggyback from
• 20:18
  from what you were saying earlier Sean I mean like you know this might inspire other leagues
• 20:24
  to not do their all-star game because it's like yeah the all-star game is cool like you know
• 20:29
  becoming an all-star in your perspective sport is it's a it's a nice accolade it's a it's a nice
• 20:36
  uh personal achievement um but also a hall of fame like achievement you know as well right like you
• 20:42
  know this many time all-star or pro bowler or whatever but right and um you know it's it's
• 20:51
  nice in that regard but uh at the same time it's like you know it hasn't it hasn't been for like
• 20:59
  15 years before any of these all-star games have really like any of the players have have played
• 21:05
  like it matters because at the end of the day it doesn't matter you know and they can choose I mean
• 21:11
  even the NHL players can choose that this doesn't matter you know but at the same time it's like
• 21:17
  hockey players they don't they don't they're not wired like that when when you put on like a sweater
• 21:26
  for your like division it's like that's okay what what kind of pride can I can I get from that but
• 21:33
  it's like you put on you put on the maple leaf you put on you put on the usa crest you put on the
• 21:39
  the the Finland swami I don't even know what what to call that the the three crowns on the Sweden
• 21:47
  uh jersey like you put that shit on and it's like you know I'm about to run through a
• 21:52
  fucking brick wall for these boys right now and so I just think it's a top five thing that the
• 22:00
  that the NHL has ever done in the sport of hockey uh just for like growing the game and
• 22:07
  and getting more eyeballs on it I mean at the end of the day you know that's that's what you want
• 22:12
  you get more eyeballs you get more money players get paid more you know these mega corporations
• 22:18
  make more money like I it feels like a win win for everyone I guess except for the NBA which
• 22:26
  I mean I feel like they gotta be kind of mentally like all right nobody's gonna watch this we are
• 22:32
  trying to they have been trying to make it more watchable but at the same time it's like you're
• 22:39
  you're you're fighting against you know these these mega billionaires billionaires
• 22:44
  of the athletes that are just playing this game because and they're just showing up so they won't
• 22:48
  get fined like and so it's I don't know but the that's my take and that's my long-winded
• 22:56
  kind of description of it do you guys have any opinions on my take
• 23:00
  take
• 23:02
  no um okay I would agree um I also just had a thought right now that this is an alternative to
• 23:12
  um Alexander Ovechkin not having to play the all-star game not having to be suspended not
• 23:19
  having to be fined and still rest because you know he is famous for not wanting to play the
• 23:27
  all-star game and if Russia's not in it then he doesn't have to do anything so he's probably like
• 23:33
  yeah let me sit back relax go back to mother Russia have some beers with Vlad and yeah let's just
• 23:42
  let's go back to Washington when when the salt in 12 days you know what I mean like
• 23:48
  but uh I think it is disappointing that Russia isn't in it because they do have a lot of great
• 23:56
  hockey players um but at the same time I'm not gonna fight that they're not in it right uh given the
• 24:05
  socio-economical state of the world right now um I totally get it so but I do think it is uh disappointing
• 24:15
  yeah they could be the the uh NHL affiliates of Russia like they were in the you know the Olympics
• 24:23
  or is like the athletics or the athletes of the United athletes of Russia or something like that
• 24:29
  yeah but five nations round robin that probably wouldn't work as well I wonder like let's say they
• 24:40
  this is just idea that came to me if I'm Gary Betman you do four nations face off every four years
• 24:47
  or every however many but let's say for this every four years and let's hope in four years
• 24:55
  Russia is playing nice with everyone again whoever which I guess you can't really do that this year
• 25:03
  I was thinking so you have tonight or tomorrow night you have USA can't canada for the championship
• 25:09
  you have the other two teams play for third place whoever loses that gets bumped out next year
• 25:15
  and the other team in this case Russia comes in fills their spot for the next tournament
• 25:21
  yeah they get uh they get relegated it's like relegation yeah yeah so and they just can't you
• 25:27
  keep playing like that and keep it like every four every so many years so it's not just like
• 25:32
  the same guys over and over again like kind of I want to say diluting it but I feel like at a
• 25:36
  point it would be like shit man I gotta play this again like this is the fourth year in a row I'm
• 25:41
  exhausted right I was interesting I was thinking like they do it because I I'm pretty sure they do
• 25:52
  the world cup of hockey every four years but it's like the in between each winter Olympics
• 26:00
  which so really it's every like two years where you play for your country right there's a there's
• 26:07
  a best on best every two years but like what I was thinking is like if they do the four nations in
• 26:14
  between each of uh each of those those two times uh and so I do it every other year I said kind of
• 26:24
  okay so you so in and not in any particular order you play four-year country three times in four years
• 26:33
  with a year off in between whatever you know tournament or something that's going on right
• 26:43
  something like that and it could be it could be staggered I see what you're saying is the
• 26:47
  world cup of hockey like coming back I know they're doing it next this year next year sometimes
• 26:52
  so yeah 2026 I think so is it like hey we're coming back and like on a regular basis or is it
• 26:59
  like hey we're back for this we may fuck off for 10 more years after I don't know I saw they they
• 27:07
  announced it before US Canada I mean I know that go ahead no I I think it's just one of those things
• 27:18
  that is kind of when it happens it happens you know it's not like the world cup yeah you know
• 27:24
  like it's not like soccer where it's gonna happen every it's not the leo Olympics where it's going
• 27:29
  to happen every four years it's when the stars align for like things to happen I think it's more
• 27:37
  like that I know that I could be wrong I know that for a while they did do the the world cup of hockey
• 27:47
  every four years between each winter Olympics I know that they did that but I don't I the last
• 27:58
  time they did the world cup of hockey was 2016 and then I think they did it four years before that
• 28:04
  and four years before that and then they just stopped for some reason I think I think there
• 28:09
  was like a a lockout somewhere in there or some just like they had to redo the CBA or
• 28:18
  or I'm not I'm not sure but yeah but I think the likelihood of the World Cup of Hockey being an
• 28:29
  established thing that they do has a has a better chance of that happening than than than the four
• 28:36
  nations yeah also because like I think the way that they they do the World Cup of Hockey is a
• 28:43
  little bit different than the four nations because I mean there's only four nations and there's a lot
• 28:49
  more you know players from country from different other countries and so I think with them I think
• 28:57
  they did say that on the next World Cup of Hockey there's not going to be any like conjoined teams
• 29:02
  like Team Europe or Team United States which or Europe yeah Team Europe yeah yeah and so
• 29:10
  so I get no Team North America but I feel like they got to do Team Europe just because like I
• 29:19
  mean you cannot you can't make a team of of Norwegian players there's only like one or two
• 29:25
  you know well see if you just do Team Europe then it's like it's USA Canada and Europe like
• 29:34
  there would only be three teams well it would be I guess Russia I don't know what they classify it but
• 29:40
  it would be Russia if they join Finland Sweden and then everyone else so so Team Europe would
• 29:48
  just be like the castoffs because of correct like so it would be like like you said like Norwegian
• 29:56
  and I would know if there's any Norwegian players like Norwegians like Czechs like stuff like that
• 30:01
  yeah they would almost be like second team yeah that's what I was gonna say because I was like
• 30:07
  I was like if we're still going to do Finland and Sweden and others I don't know if we'll do
• 30:12
  others or not but if it's definitely them too then it's like okay well then Team Europe is
• 30:17
  not gonna be very good yeah but but I think what Will's also saying is that there are there are
• 30:23
  players from you know the Czech Republic and Norway that like they can't make it you can't make a team
• 30:29
  from like professional players in the NHL so well it's so is the World Cup of Hockey just
• 30:39
  NHL players I'm I thought it was like if you 90% sure okay I was I don't know much about it obviously
• 30:50
  I was under the impression it was like if you're good enough like if you're some kid in Slovakia
• 30:55
  it's like if you're good enough you can play for this team like regardless of where you're playing
• 30:59
  in the world yeah they won't get very far oh no but it's if they were if they were they'd be in the
• 31:06
  show oh yeah you're right but I didn't know like maybe there's some like some kid like some 17 year
• 31:12
  old been playing some league in Europe somewhere it's like hey this kid's the truth but he's not
• 31:18
  in the NHL yet he can go over there ball out and then go to the NHL get eyes on him I don't know if
• 31:24
  that could be I mean that could also happen I'm not sure how you know this all works either but
• 31:34
  yeah well so yeah we got a look into that but just a back pedal a little bit like team Europe
• 31:44
  you know it wouldn't be second team because it's like that team would be like Roman Yossi
• 31:50
  like Leon Drysidl yeah okay yeah it's like it's just like all the good ass players in Europe
• 32:00
  that aren't Finnish or Swedish and then there might be some players that don't make the
• 32:08
  Finnish or Swedish team that are on a are on team Europe you know that would be interesting
• 32:15
  right and so it's it's kind of like like Roman Yossi would be on it like Leon Drysidl would be on
• 32:21
  it I'm trying to think of others like David Posternak would be on it like Anze Copetar
• 32:26
  yeah he would be on that team like and like I remember when they did team Europe in 2016 like
• 32:32
  Chara was on the team and he's he's Czech as well and so it's like it's not it's not the castoffs
• 32:39
  it's just the countries that have the good ass players that just don't have enough yeah
• 32:44
  yeah just players you know there are there there were a few castoffs like they're not castoffs but
• 32:52
  they are like they are a second team like they are like the fourth liners on that team are not
• 32:58
  gonna be very like they'll be good because they'll be good enough to play in it but
• 33:03
  comparatively are not gonna be very good yeah I am incredibly actually interested now in team
• 33:10
  Europe from 2016 I'm gonna look that up in a second uh let's see what else do you have any other
• 33:17
  other hockey tips? Well I just want to say one more thing about the four nations and this has
• 33:21
  something to do with the tournament itself it's just like the broadcast coverage of it we got to
• 33:26
  get some damn Americans on this TNT panel I'm sick of biz and Hanson Carter just like jerking
• 33:36
  each other off like oh we love Canada so much on an American broadcast like I get have biz there
• 33:42
  he's awesome but let's bring in like Mike Madonna bring in the fucking American who is like can
• 33:48
  not just have this be like a Canadian suckfest for three hours yeah I mean uh I think on the fair
• 33:56
  on the Swedish uh on the uh the USA Sweden game they had Eddie Olcek who's American
• 34:03
  and uh and Brian Boucher who's also American who have played for Team America and they they talked
• 34:09
  about it a little bit but um but yes I I do agree with uh with with that because that's what's going
• 34:16
  to be on Thursday like they're I assume maybe they'll have Olcek but I assume it's going to be biz
• 34:23
  and Hanson Carter just because they're like the normal guys and just be like oh well Canada's so
• 34:28
  great we love Ken and rightfully so I'm not saying they shouldn't I'm just saying when you're on an
• 34:32
  American broadcast it sucks it should just be like yay Canada for the entire game that was just I
• 34:40
  still loved it like it was great entertainment but that was just like I'm sure they have TNT in
• 34:45
  Canada too but oh yeah and again like that's why I'm not saying like just Americans because then
• 34:50
  it just be the same thing I would just like it but um I would like a 50-50 split yeah have
• 34:56
  one American in there like one American player in there a former player who who would you want
• 35:03
  Medano yeah okay so I think when I think of like just like an older like an old school like a USA
• 35:10
  hockey guy Jeremy Ronick or I mean like Ruzioni different era but talk about an American hero
• 35:19
  talk about an American fucking hero dude hey uh he ran some promos for uh for Team USA
• 35:25
  yeah like over the weekend and that was cool yeah I'm gonna watch Miracle like five times tomorrow
• 35:34
  I might watch it tonight this is getting me my blood pumping hey did I tell you guys that in
• 35:41
  I don't even know if I've talked about that or uh in the hockey league that I play in the guy
• 35:47
  who played McClanahan in Miracle plays in my hockey league in rookie league
• 35:59
  you told us about that but that's still awesome like I was like hold on like someone told me
• 36:05
  that I was like hold on say that again he was like the guy who plays McClanahan in Miracle
• 36:14
  plays in rookie league for this team and I was like no fucking way I looked it up and he does
• 36:25
  I feel like he should be a level above I mean maybe I haven't seen a play but I feel like just
• 36:30
  based on his credentials he should be maybe a league up uh he is not on a good team I'll say that
• 36:37
  okay he is their their best player I was gonna say this guy has been paid to at least simulate a
• 36:46
  hockey game before yeah pretty pretty wild stuff but yeah all right so I do have the the team
• 36:54
  Europe roster here which there are some some 2016 names on here that I have not heard and in quite a
• 37:02
  while uh but I'll just I'll just give the the highlights their um their goal tending was Thomas
• 37:10
  Grice Philip Grubauer and Yaroslav Halak and like I haven't heard Halak in a while Grubauer is still
• 37:16
  in the league the decor was like Chara, Yossi, Spiza, Andre, Sekira, Mark Strait and uh some others
• 37:28
  some other for the low level guys uh and then is Pierre Edward Belmar still in the league I don't know
• 37:37
  he's French I think he's the only French dude on here but uh like actual French dude uh
• 37:44
  Mikael Bodkirk I don't think he's in the league anymore uh Leon Dreissel I think he was 19 at the
• 37:50
  time yeah in 2016 yeah 19 or like 20 um Marion Gabrik old guy Yannick Hansen Marion Hossa was on
• 38:04
  that team I guess I guess that's one of the last things he did yeah for peace uh Anze Copetar
• 38:12
  Nino Nida Ryder Preds Legend, Frans Nielsen, Tomas Tatar, Thomas Vanek and Matt Zuccarello the only
• 38:22
  Norwegian yeah but um yes 2016 names and that there were a number of castoffs I would say that were
• 38:35
  on that tape actually I don't even know if there's any uh Finnish or or Swedish no there's no uh
• 38:43
  there's no Finnish or Swedish players on that team so there weren't any castoffs interesting from
• 38:49
  from those teams but well maybe we were wrong then and yeah I think Europe could I mean obviously
• 38:56
  they can build a good team uh around you know the guys they have in the league now definitely
• 39:04
  definitely um she even like most of those guys I mean Charra isn't playing anymore uh Hossa's
• 39:13
  obviously not playing anymore but um I think that the the talent that they have in the NHL right now
• 39:19
  they could they could still build a decent team oh yeah and that team made it to the final against
• 39:27
  Canada yeah yeah so uh but I I would agree that the like you'd have to get rid of like North America
• 39:40
  you would because yeah that's that's fine yeah you you kind of would because that's kind of cheating
• 39:46
  like that's awesome and I know why they did it because that team is amazing and that's sells
• 39:51
  sells tickets but yeah that's not fair yeah but wasn't Connor McDavid on North America and not
• 40:01
  yes like Canada yes so was Nathan McKinnon Austin Matthews Seth Jones yes uh I know Seth Jones was
• 40:11
  on there but dude a bunch of great ass Jack Eichel was on that team like fuck that dude
• 40:18
  dude I'll never like him he's gonna have this week I'll really I'll really never
• 40:23
  four goals on Thursday for that for me to be like okay he's not bad you get the game winner in double
• 40:31
  overtime I'll be like all right I like okay he's fine I don't like all right cool all right no
• 40:42
  if he scores you know the game winner double overtime I don't know how the how did these
• 40:46
  over times work in the four nations is it I assume the three the change has been three on three but
• 40:53
  I assume the championship they would do five on five the championship playoff five on five
• 40:58
  okay cool just go and someone said when there's someone dies cool all right as as it should be
• 41:06
  um but yeah did it yeah yeah is uh the three on three you know all star thing that's dumb
• 41:22
  like the tournament thing that is well like in like division wise they do like they don't even
• 41:29
  play like full lines they do three on three and so like the score is like you know nine to six
• 41:37
  like in like almost every game and like yeah it's fun but it's fun to score goals but at a point
• 41:46
  you kind of want to see a little more competition so I thought it was that's what the four nations
• 41:52
  brings in yeah but yeah I thought the three on three thing I thought that was an interesting idea
• 41:57
  I thought the first year they did it was cool but yeah after a while I was like okay this
• 42:01
  it's kind of the same old thing just in a different style like yeah we're still seeing a
• 42:05
  lot of offense just not as much because I remember the year before that when it was like the last
• 42:09
  east versus west game wasn't the score like 16 to 14 or something ridiculous like that yeah it's
• 42:16
  some of the stupid it's like that's not a hockey score yeah I think that's when they're like okay we
• 42:21
  we gotta do something like three one you know empty net goal that's a hockey score and that's
• 42:31
  what you guys can't do us that was awesome yeah that was a hockey game that was a hockey fucking game
• 42:39
  but we can we can move on from we've been man we've been chatting about this though I'm not
• 42:45
  complaining off it I really don't have anything else truth be told so Chris I I've been very much
• 42:55
  slacking on doing research on college hockey all right well next week you have to have your pick
• 43:01
  though remember yeah like if the US wins tomorrow you have to have your rollover you have when the
• 43:12
  US wins tomorrow you have to have your rollover funds pick yep if you don't have a pick I'm I'm
• 43:21
  putting on main really yeah just good fuck it that'd be cool if I don't have an informed opinion if
• 43:30
  I don't have someone telling me they're informed opinion on this I'm just gonna go with main
• 43:33
  all right so you are what stands between a financially bad decision and a sound financial
• 43:45
  decision well now I gotta put a little bit on main just because of that okay financial
• 43:53
  decision well actually gambling is a terrible financial decision if you want to get into it but
• 43:57
  you know what could be a gambling show it's a coin flip depends on it on how it goes
• 44:09
  could be great could be the best moment of your life just depends but I'll I'll do a little research
• 44:19
  but yeah that's all I got fellas so if there's if there's anything any topics you got then
• 44:25
  uh if we can we can go how's college basketball going it's awesome we're ramping up to March
• 44:34
  Saturday we had number one versus number two game with Auburn in Alabama that was pretty sick
• 44:40
  Auburn won cashed Auburn money line by the way not a big deal but Auburn won forget what the score
• 44:46
  was 94 88 something like that 94 90 high scoring game Albin plays again tonight played Missouri
• 44:54
  that's tipping off actually any moment now so I'll be fun but yeah college basketball is
• 44:59
  it's the best this time of year is awesome but this time next month is heaven
• 45:09
  for just college basketball fans and just to generate gamblers because they're anytime the day
• 45:15
  you've got a good chance that college basketball is being dribbled somewhere
• 45:18
  um I am one in one right now in college basketball I got one more going
• 45:30
  uh the Gardner Web Longwood over cashed hell yeah
• 45:37
  but but the um Vanderbilt Kentucky over did not cash vandy convent Vanderbilt yeah Vanderbilt
• 45:46
  down the stretch yeah they they lost by 21 so that was a one point game at halftime yeah that sucks
• 45:57
  I'm that was actually looking pretty good but that was a really high total that total was 162 and a half
• 46:04
  Kentucky doesn't play defense yeah but I will say that I am strictly just using
• 46:12
  trend center and like I said earlier in the show I am now five and two
• 46:22
  so five and two on the week not bad at all I had a trend center bethead for me tonight
• 46:28
  Penn State uh plus two they won outright by like 20 there's easy yeah just go on the trend yeah yeah
• 46:35
  just fucking there were a lot of good ones on there today just type in that promo code TFTM get
• 46:41
  15 off your subscription make it back easy and then just keep keep that just keep paint it's it's

• 47:15
  was it Howard taking on known powerhouse University of Maryland Eastern Shore was that the first
• 47:22
  college basketball game you bet on this season uh no but kind of like no but also yes like it was one
• 47:33
  that like I was like okay I'm actually going to like look into this and not just like blindly throw
• 47:41
  something that someone in the group chat like said is a lock you know what I mean yeah um
• 47:48
  um but yeah it was the the Howard um Eastern I don't even Maryland Eastern Shore yeah that's
• 47:56
  that's a school that only the parents of those students know the name of um and me and Chris
• 48:06
  but yeah I had that I had the over I took I took that over and that cashed really easily
• 48:12
  another trend center pick as well that made me so happy Sean just came out of the blue in the
• 48:19
  hey Chris what do you think about the Howard over I was like this is the best I love that
• 48:27
  I always like to I always like to surprise Chris with like college basketball like thoughts
• 48:35
  you know I'll be in I'll be in the emergency room and I'll be like hey what do you think about
• 48:40
  Colorado minus three and a half like that was the best that tournament when yeah you text me
• 48:47
  what do you think about Colorado I don't remember who they were playing and I was like yeah I like
• 48:51
  him I'll take him and then 20 minutes later either will tell me our song like Instagram or
• 48:56
  something that Sean was in the hospital yeah I broke my toes yeah that was it all time hey man
• 49:04
  are you okay I'm like I'm fine I just have nothing to do like fine I just need a winner so do you
• 49:10
  like Colorado or not gonna pay these medical bills dude whether I get anesthesia or not depends on
• 49:19
  of Colorado covers no I was I was literally in there for broken toes and there was like
• 49:25
  is nothing we can do is because their toes nobody cares about nobody I mean there's
• 49:33
  there's literally nothing you can do for broken toes it's like whatever um but I was like okay
• 49:40
  how can I make this back how can I make this expensive bus ride uh yeah there's a there's a
• 49:50
  fucking 800 dollar expensive ass taxi ride for a mile and a half to the hospital because
• 49:57
  I don't want to go into it I'm sure we've actually told this story before oh probably yeah
• 50:04
  yeah but yeah I just love Sean just I was like is this the first game he's like I'm gonna dip
• 50:10
  my tone to college basketball oh Howard uh Eastern Shore let's uh let's give that a whirl yeah that's
• 50:17
  a really that's a really degenerate like oh like like first one to be like hey what do you think
• 50:23
  about this like it was a it was a standalone game yeah it wasn't it like two o'clock yeah it was like
• 50:32
  it because I remember like rolling it over rolling those winnings over into another one and I was
• 50:36
  like let's keep this going like and then I bet it on the oh it was the day that uh Virginia was playing
• 50:46
  Duke and I was like I'm gonna bet this I'm gonna bet this under and like that under wasn't even close
• 50:54
  like and I was like oh Jesus Christ yeah I I bet the Virginia team total under and that one under
• 51:02
  58 and a half and I finished with 61 so that was fun yeah the the the total was 132 and like I think
• 51:11
  it ended like 156 or something I was like Jesus Christ Duke scored like 85 or something like that
• 51:18
  yeah it was Virginia plays basketball like it's 1956 it is the most boring mind-numbing style of
• 51:27
  basketball you can watch but if you go back through their scores or sometimes they will
• 51:31
  like score in the 40s it's absurd sometimes I mean they're pretty trash but yeah sometimes they won
• 51:41
  but I mean they're they just don't squids it's awful to watch I remember they made the tournament
• 51:47
  last year or they made like the play-in game or whatever when people were like this is stupid
• 51:52
  this team sucks like it's just they just got in because like the Virginia Virginia is a good basketball
• 51:58
  program but like they're they got in on name value and they got boat raced by Boise state
• 52:05
  Utah snow some like mountain west team and was like wow this team actually was terrible so
• 52:15
  but yeah that's Virginia basketball that's talking UVA hoops this week
• 52:22
  all right hey Chris do you want to come to the borough on Saturday we can go to the MT game
• 52:36
  what time same 2 p.m 2 p.m they're facing you're facing Sam Houston
• 52:44
  maybe I definitely want to do that but I might have something going group trip to Murphy Center
• 52:49
  that'd be fun I haven't been to an MT basketball game in a while I went last year for WKU
• 52:56
  and they they won by like three in like the last like few minutes and I was like holy shit
• 53:05
  uh yeah I mean it's their last night I don't know I don't think that's alumni night
• 53:11
  uh because they probably have more games they probably won't have very many I doubt that'd
• 53:19
  be their last game but what could be no it's not their last game but it's their second
• 53:26
  to last game it's their third to last home game oh okay oh yeah they got playing more okay yeah
• 53:33
  if I can't go to that one we should definitely go to another one yeah I was just I was like we
• 53:38
  should go to a college basketball game and but that'd be fun just to get into the zone
• 53:45
  since I'm off Saturdays so
• 53:50
  I mean we're all off Saturdays you know like we were adults yeah I mean when you're betting 20
• 53:57
  games on a Saturday they don't feel like you're off true it's not it's not relaxing at all no but
• 54:07
  it's fun it's awesome I would never have to do it I don't have to but like you look at the brain
• 54:14
  tells you you have to look at the board and there's literally like 115 games going on you're like well
• 54:19
  shit when you look at like that having 20 it's not bad that's it's true well the last time MT
• 54:31
  and Sam Houston played MT one by two in like the final minutes which looks like an awesome like
• 54:41
  kind of matchup I mean yeah I definitely want to check it out
• 54:47
  yeah we should we'll talk about it we'll talk yeah definitely yeah we should try and make this
• 54:53
  happen because tickets are like eight bucks or something like something stupid yeah nobody goes
• 54:57
  to and they serve beer at those now yeah dude back well I miss back when MT was get a basketball
• 55:07
  and that place was I know a place with hype yeah that place was rocking yeah I miss you Kermit yeah
• 55:16
  what's he do is he still at Ole Miss no he got fired I don't uh might be retired now honestly
• 55:23
  Or maybe just like not doing anything.
• 55:30
  He should be in T's athletic director.
• 55:33
  I mean, honestly.
• 55:35
  Yeah.
• 55:39
  OK, yeah, it doesn't have anything about it.

  Yeah, I saw him last year.
• 56:06
  I saw him last year.
• 56:07
  Yeah.
• 56:07
  Yeah, I was watching on TV and I was like, hey, that's Reggie Upshaw.
• 56:11
  I was like, that's cool.
• 56:13
  Yeah, I saw that he got drafted by the Warriors.
• 56:17
  Yeah.
• 56:17
  Like whenever it was his time to be drafted, like the football round.
• 56:22
  Or something like that.
• 56:23
  I don't know if he ever actually played in the NBA, but.
• 56:26
  Yeah.
• 56:28
  Park made some some some decent dough.
• 56:31
  I don't know.
• 56:32
  Shout out Reggie Upshaw.
• 56:33
  Fan of the show.
• 56:33
  Shout out, MT Legend.
• 56:36
  Honestly, I mean like.
• 56:37
  Never get that Michigan State game.
• 56:39
  No.
• 56:40
  No.
• 56:43
  Dog.
• 56:44
  Dog.
• 56:45
  Never trailed.
• 56:46
  Never.
• 56:47
  Never got that.
• 56:48
  Never got that.
• 56:49
  What the hell is that?
• 56:50
  Yeah, that.
• 56:51
  I feel bad that we're talking to just about our local college basketball, but like.
• 56:59
  That Michigan State game was different.
• 57:03
  Different, dude.
• 57:04
  Yeah.
• 57:05
  That was electric.
• 57:06
  I think at the time it was only like the fourth time of 15 had beaten a two.
• 57:13
  Yeah.
• 57:14
  Maybe six or something like that.
• 57:17
  And like not a lot.
• 57:19
  And like the whole MT basketball game was up for like biggest upset of the year at like
• 57:25
  the Espeys or something.
• 57:27
  They didn't win, but like.
• 57:31
  It was like, what the fuck is going on, dude?
• 57:37
  That was sick.
• 57:39
  All right fellas, do we, I mean, do we have anything else we want to talk about?
• 57:43
  I mean, it's the off season.
• 57:44
  So there's, you know, aside from very select few college basketball games and I mean the
• 57:50
  four nations, I mean, we spent half the show talking about four nations.
• 57:53
  So I don't know.
• 57:55
  Is there anything else going on?
• 57:56
  Really?
• 57:57
  I mean, we're honestly like, this is honestly like the deadest period of the year because
• 58:03
  the NBA is in their all star break.
• 58:05
  The NHL is in their all star break.
• 58:09
  Baseball is kind of warming up.
• 58:12
  It's spring trainings like around the corner.
• 58:17
  I'll say it's the second deadest time because then over the summer you do get that where
• 58:22
  it's the only leagues going on or MLB and WNBA and it's like the MLB all star break.
• 58:29
  You'll have like a few days where there's nothing.
• 58:33
  Yeah.
• 58:34
  And that's.
• 58:35
  Yeah, it's a pretty dead period right now.
• 58:42
  Oh, that's what I was saying.
• 58:43
  I think it's second deadest.
• 58:45
  Like it's not like we still have like there are 20 college basketball games on the night.
• 58:49
  I would go for that and whatever that we can.
• 58:52
  We definitely have flesh on the bone, but you know, it's not completely dead, but yeah.
• 59:00
  It's kind of like professional wise.
• 59:04
  Like, you know, it's kind of like, there's no drama going on, you know, like there's
• 59:09
  nothing to really, there's no.
• 59:11
  Patrick, my home's got a haircut.
• 59:13
  Oh, that actually made around in his revenge era.
• 59:20
  Okay.
• 59:21
  Shut the f*** up.
• 59:22
  His winter arc.
• 59:23
  As the kids say.
• 59:33
  I think I did actually hear something about during the Philadelphia Eagles parade.
• 59:38
  They had, there was a bunch of Eagles fans with like Kermit the frog like hanging by the
• 59:46
  neck on like a stick or something.
• 59:48
  Oh yeah.
• 59:49
  There were a couple of Kermits that burned in the streets.
• 59:55
  Yeah.
• 59:56
  I saw that one year talking about, well, I think he was hanging from like an Eagles flag
• 59:59
  or something like that off of like a balcony or something.
• 1:00:02
  But yeah.
• 1:00:03
  Was he like, was he like crucified?
• 1:00:05
  No, he was hanged.
• 1:00:07
  He was hanged by the neck.
• 1:00:08
  Oh, okay.
• 1:00:09
  Like lynched.
• 1:00:10
  Jesus Christ.
• 1:00:11
  I was going to say that.
• 1:00:13
  Frog.
• 1:00:14
  Maybe not quite.
• 1:00:16
  Isn't that a, isn't that the term to use?
• 1:00:20
  I mean, yeah.
• 1:00:22
  Not sure.
• 1:00:23
  I guess it's just, I don't think that's a derogatory.
• 1:00:26
  Not a fun word you like.
• 1:00:28
  No, it's not fun.
• 1:00:29
  No, it's not fun.
• 1:00:31
  But isn't that correct?
• 1:00:34
  Who's to say?
• 1:00:36
  Technically, I guess.
• 1:00:38
  But yeah, I saw that happened.
• 1:00:40
  And I just like, I'm sick.
• 1:00:42
  There's just like a lot of backlash and it was just like,
• 1:00:46
  Hey, act like you've been here before.
• 1:00:49
  No, I wouldn't.
• 1:00:53
  I wouldn't.
• 1:00:54
  Like, first of all, I haven't.
• 1:00:57
  But at the same time, it's like, dude, if I'm, if I went to Super Bowls in my lifetime,
• 1:01:03
  one being like, you know, like eight years since the last one, like, I'm, I'm like,
• 1:01:11
  I'm rocking out with my cock out, dude.
• 1:01:14
  Like I'm, I'm, I'm partying.
• 1:01:16
  I'm going hard.
• 1:01:17
  I'm going crazy.
• 1:01:18
  I'm, I'm saying a lot of things.
• 1:01:21
  I'm doing a lot of things that probably shouldn't be done.
• 1:01:25
  But you know what?
• 1:01:27
  It doesn't matter.
• 1:01:28
  My team is better than yours.
• 1:01:30
  Yeah.
• 1:01:31
  The Eagles, I mean, damn straight.
• 1:01:34
  There are two Super Bowl wins are over the two goats, like Brady in my homes.
• 1:01:40
  One was just an ass whooping.
• 1:01:43
  And the other one was one of the most entertaining Super Bowls ever.
• 1:01:48
  So yeah, they have, they've, I mean, they're always obnoxious, but they've kind of earned
• 1:01:54
  it with these last couple of bowls.
• 1:01:57
  Honestly, if they weren't obnoxious, I'd be a little disappointed.
• 1:02:01
  I'd be pissed.
• 1:02:02
  I feel like we're at that point in society now where something good happens to Philadelphia
• 1:02:08
  and they're not, there's not like something like a riot.
• 1:02:11
  It's, it's a, I don't know, it's kind of disappointing.
• 1:02:14
  And then, you know, something bad happens and there's not a riot.
• 1:02:20
  Then it's like, huh, has Philly lost the edge?
• 1:02:23
  I would be concerned.
• 1:02:26
  Honestly, like if Philly, like, are they okay?
• 1:02:30
  Like, should we like call like a senator up there?
• 1:02:33
  We're like, Hey, just, is everything cool up there?
• 1:02:36
  Just check it in.
• 1:02:37
  I was like, yeah, like this isn't like y'all like we need to do a wellness check on the
• 1:02:41
  city of Philadelphia if they ever don't almost burn the city down after a win or a loss.
• 1:02:47
  Yeah.
• 1:02:48
  Like, it's, it's so funny that society is at that point.
• 1:02:54
  At least we are to that point.
• 1:02:58
  But yeah.
• 1:03:00
  Well, we don't have much, you know, celebrate.
• 1:03:05
  So, oh, yeah.
• 1:03:06
  Of course, take, take, take, take everything as far as you want when, whenever you get
• 1:03:13
  the chance.
• 1:03:14
  Like if you got a chance to celebrate it, go ahead, fully endorsed.
• 1:03:19
  You never know when your last Super Bowl wins going to come.
• 1:03:22
  Exactly.
• 1:03:23
  I mean, the world, the world can end tomorrow.
• 1:03:26
  Just say die tomorrow.
• 1:03:28
  You could die tomorrow.
• 1:03:29
  There was a guy that died at the Philadelphia parade.
• 1:03:32
  Yep.
• 1:03:33
  And sure he would like nothing.
• 1:03:36
  That was probably the perfect way to go out.
• 1:03:39
  I'm sure his family feels the same way.
• 1:03:45
  Obviously.
• 1:03:46
  Well, half joking.
• 1:03:48
  If, if a statement came out from the family that was like, this is how he would have wanted
• 1:03:53
  it.
• 1:03:54
  I've been like, yeah, that checks it out.
• 1:03:56
  Well, he dies.
• 1:03:57
  He dies for the cause.
• 1:03:59
  You know,
• 1:04:01
  I'm like, if that was, if something like that was read at his funeral, I was like, yeah,
• 1:04:06
  that makes sense.
• 1:04:08
  Yeah.
• 1:04:09
  I mean, he just loved the Eagles so fucking much.
• 1:04:14
  Go birds.
• 1:04:15
  Go birds.
• 1:04:16
  Go birds.
• 1:04:17
  Jaylin, if you can hear me.
• 1:04:22
  If you can hear me, Jaylin, he would love to have you at the visit.
• 1:04:27
  Jaylin Hertz.
• 1:04:28
  Please, please save me, Jaylin Hertz.
• 1:04:31
  Oh, man.
• 1:04:32
  Now I feel a little bit bad, but yeah, we're just dealt with.
• 1:04:38
  I've probably got not too far away from the truth.
• 1:04:42
  I don't know.
• 1:04:44
  Do you want to wrap up?
• 1:04:46
  Do we want to wrap up here?
• 1:04:48
  We had nothing else?
• 1:04:50
  Yeah, I'm really got.
• 1:04:52
  I'm really glad.
• 1:04:53
  I'm glad.
• 1:04:54
  I'm glad.
• 1:04:55
  I'm glad.
• 1:04:56
  Yeah, I'm really got.
• 1:04:58
  Yeah, nothing else really.
• 1:05:01
  Okay, we've just been kind of chitchatting it up, but all right.
• 1:05:06
  I just remembered one quick other take about hockey.
• 1:05:10
  The way that they do the points system in this four nations should be the way that they
• 1:05:16
  do it in the NHL.
• 1:05:18
  I agree.
• 1:05:19
  Like three points for regulation win, two points for an overtime win, one point for
• 1:05:25
  an overtime loss, and then zero points for a regulation loss.
• 1:05:31
  It's like it's a perfect ranking of like, well, a regulation loss is definitely like
• 1:05:37
  a better win than an overtime win.
• 1:05:40
  Like just think about it logically.
• 1:05:43
  I don't know.
• 1:05:44
  That should be a thing that happens.
• 1:05:48
  That's a little quick takes by will there.
• 1:05:51
  But okay, I'm going to wrap it up.
• 1:05:53
  But well, what's the advantage to doing that then like the system we have now?
• 1:06:00
  It's like kind of the same except, you know, an overtime win just gets you one less point.
• 1:06:09
  I think you should be rewarded more for like finishing it in regulation.
• 1:06:14
  Yeah, at the end of the day, it doesn't really.
• 1:06:17
  Well, yeah, you should, but I mean, I think like at the end of the day, it doesn't mean
• 1:06:21
  that you should like another point.
• 1:06:23
  I mean, just in terms of like comparing it to what it is now to that, like I don't think
• 1:06:28
  we would see anything drastically different.
• 1:06:30
  But I just think you should be rewarded more for finishing a game in 60 as opposed to going
• 1:06:34
  to overtime.
• 1:06:35
  Isn't that how they do soccer?
• 1:06:38
  Like isn't that how soccer points are like awarded?
• 1:06:42
  Because like the soccer points are like, I think regulation, I think that is how soccer
• 1:06:48
  does it.
• 1:06:49
  I think I could not tell you it, but I think you're like that sounds correct.
• 1:06:55
  I feel like I've heard that before.
• 1:06:57
  Yeah.
• 1:06:58
  But I have no clue.
• 1:07:02
  I think it is, but I have no clue.
• 1:07:06
  I don't know.
• 1:07:07
  I just feel like, like if if you come back and you win an overtime after like being down,
• 1:07:15
  it's like, you know, you should have two points there, but it's like if you kick someone's
• 1:07:20
  ass, it's like that's definitely worth more as like a complete team kind of goal type
• 1:07:27
  thing.
• 1:07:28
  Then if you like barely squeak out an overtime point, I don't know.
• 1:07:32
  I agree.
• 1:07:33
  That's me and Chris are kind of on the same brain length, brain wavelength right now.
• 1:07:39
  I guess, but like also what if it's like a five one overtime comeback victory?
• 1:07:49
  Like what if you win six five in overtime?
• 1:07:52
  Then you get two points as opposed to the zero.
• 1:07:55
  Yeah, but like you kicked their ass.
• 1:07:58
  Like you came back and kicked their ass.
• 1:08:00
  But you also got your ass kicked for a majority of the time.
• 1:08:03
  You got your ass kicked for a little bit.
• 1:08:06
  But then you came back and still kick their ass.
• 1:08:09
  Yeah.
• 1:08:10
  And you get two points, which is better than the zero that you would have had if you got
• 1:08:14
  your ass kicked.
• 1:08:15
  Yeah.
• 1:08:16
  Three points to me exemplifies you played a more complete game.
• 1:08:21
  You came in with a game plan that you executed and you just took control of the game.
• 1:08:28
  Like it was never kind of in doubt.
• 1:08:31
  Even if you only win by one point, one goal.
• 1:08:36
  And so that's kind of the way I see it.
• 1:08:41
  I don't think an overtime win should be equal to the same as a regulation win.
• 1:08:50
  Does that make sense?
• 1:08:53
  Yeah, like if you.
• 1:08:54
  Yeah, I get it.
• 1:08:56
  But it's just it's the way that I've come to know the NHL.
• 1:09:01
  This is the way that the NHL has always been.
• 1:09:05
  So it's kind of it's not hard for me to wrap my mind around.
• 1:09:09
  But there is a reason why they have their point system the way they do.
• 1:09:17
  Sure.
• 1:09:18
  I mean, yeah, there is.
• 1:09:20
  I don't think they're doing it for the hell of it.
• 1:09:22
  But I just think like, well, you should be rewarded more for a five one ass kicking as opposed to only one by one.
• 1:09:32
  I mean, I mean, a regulation win could be one nothing.
• 1:09:37
  That is also true.
• 1:09:39
  But I mean, well, then you're kind of splitting hairs, I guess, with like that.
• 1:09:43
  That's what I mean.
• 1:09:44
  Like, I mean, I think a winning in regulation should be I just think winning in 60 should be rewarded more.
• 1:09:51
  Then winning in overtime than having to go to overtime.
• 1:09:56
  Just like how when I bet a 60 minute line.
• 1:09:59
  Yes.
• 1:10:00
  In the NHL, I get better odds.
• 1:10:03
  OK, because now you're putting it now you're putting it in respect.
• 1:10:07
  Now you're speaking our language.
• 1:10:09
  We got it.
• 1:10:10
  We got it.
• 1:10:12
  All right.
• 1:10:13
  Three minds coming together.
• 1:10:15
  All right.
• 1:10:16
  They're like, holy shit, I guess.
• 1:10:22
  No, I understood.
• 1:10:23
  I understood the whole thing.
• 1:10:24
  It's it.
• 1:10:26
  I don't it.
• 1:10:27
  It's hard for me to explain it because we are trying to wrap up and we have limited time, but maybe we can dive deeper into this next time.
• 1:10:37
  Sure.
• 1:10:39
  Maybe.
• 1:10:40
  You're probably not probably not.
• 1:10:43
  Don't expect much.
• 1:10:44
  But stay tuned next week for talking the NHL point system with three for the money.
• 1:10:50
  Stay tuned for nothing.
