- 2:24At the time of the final four
- 2:27he called it and
- 2:30Man, what a game. Do we can we talk about that game? Yeah, definitely
- 2:35I want to I want to run through your emotions through that so
- 2:39At the start of the game
- 2:41I was at a bar and I was like I have to watch this I have a massive future on it
- 2:45So I just watching it at this bar on my phone
- 2:48How many how many units did you have on that? Oh that was
- 2:5410
- 2:55Holy shit. No, it was a 10. It was like
- 3:00Future it's like seven still a lot for a future. Yeah
- 3:04mate
- 3:06knows what it was the man not anymore
- 3:10It I did my research, you know, I I looked into it, but I was at a bar and
- 3:16They were playing minutes at Quinnipiac, Minnesota in the championship
- 3:24Minnesota scored a goal in like the first few minutes and I became extremely depressed at this bar
- 3:31And everybody around me is like, are you okay? I'm like, no, no games over. No, this is this is terrible
- 3:39So that happened and then I was like, all right
- 3:42I'm gonna put this away and we're gonna go home and then I'm going to continue watching it
- 3:49and so I caught the last few minutes of the first period and
- 3:53It just all the first period just seemed like
- 3:59Minnesota was the better team they they had them hemmed in their zone
- 4:03They could not get that puck out and they hardly got any shots on Minnesota's netminder and
- 4:10I
- 4:12Almost had a heart attack
- 4:14It was that was like the longest 18 minutes of my life
- 4:19And then the second period Minnesota scores again. I became extremely more depressed
- 4:27Because at that point it looks like Minnesota is covering the puck line
- 4:30Yeah, and it's not looking good for for all will here
- 4:35and then
- 4:38Quinnipiac
- 4:39Got a got a quick one. I was like, okay. All right, we're back. We're back. This is a game
- 4:44This is a game and then for the rest of the game for like
- 4:49Three-quarters of the second period and for the rest of the third period
- 4:54This was Quinnipiac's game if you know, you're listening to this and you're like, I don't know anything about college hockey
- 5:00But if you know a little bit about the NHL Quinnipiac is kind of like the Islanders if they had an offense
- 5:05This this is like if the Islanders could score goals
- 5:11So
- 5:13The rest of that game they were in Minnesota's zone. They were they they were winning face offs
- 5:19That was that was the big
- 5:22That was the big determining factor in differential. Yeah, the differential in the game really
- 5:28they were just kept winning offensive zone face offs and just kept peppering the net with pucks and
- 5:35it was two one game going into the third period and
- 5:40You know granted. I haven't watched a ton of college hockey this season
- 5:45But the broadcast team at the second intermission
- 5:50We're all just talking like Quinnipiac's gonna win like they are they have them right where they want them
- 5:55They're down one. They can win these these greasy gold games
- 5:57They just need a greasy goal and that's that's exactly what happened
- 6:04They were on the power play with three minutes left minutes left and they pulled their goalie. Yeah, that's it was an insane
- 6:12It was in
- 6:14I don't think that's an insane move. It's not an insane move. I don't I think there was 30 seconds left in the power play, right?
- 6:20It's just insane when they pulled the goalie. Yeah to watch it. So insane like yeah, it's like yeah
- 6:26It's mission to the next so I didn't get to watch the game
- 6:29Until overtime. I was at a movie. It's all air by the way
- 6:34The
- 6:35Yeah, Michael Jordan shoe movie. Yeah, great movie. Go see it
- 6:40But I got back just in time before puck drop. So I didn't know like really all the plays that like the story of the story of the game
- 6:49Yeah
- 6:51Let's see. Just oh continue. Oh good. So they
- 6:56Pull the goalie three minutes left in the game 30 seconds left on the power play
- 7:01They just score a greasy greasy goal and
- 7:05They tied it up and it was like, oh my god. I can't believe this just happened
- 7:09My heart's been racing at like 180 beats per minute. I like for like half an hour
- 7:17Like I've almost had a heart attack
- 7:19And
- 7:21They they tied it up went to OT and I was like, okay
- 7:26This has been their game
- 7:28They're just gonna play their game. They're gonna they're gonna block shots. They're gonna make saves
- 7:33It's that they're gonna they were gonna roll four lines. They all they they never play line matchup this coach
- 7:40I did a research on this coach. He doesn't play line matchups
- 7:43Because that gets a little too confusing and
- 7:49So, you know, some people have fresher legs than others
- 7:52He makes sure you have the fundamentals of like playing defense
- 7:57So like he was rolling four lines against like Matthew Nye's and Logan Cooley and and Pitlick and all these superstars on this college hockey team
- 8:04Matthew Nye's just signed an entry-level deal with the Leafs. Yeah yesterday. Yeah, like that's how good like these kids are
- 8:12These are NHL players. Yeah, like this kid's gonna play in the playoffs. Yeah, like that's insane
- 8:21One of the Hughes brothers just played last night for the Devils. Yeah, yeah, not Jack. Yeah, the other one. Yeah, so
- 8:30He rolls four lines. He had fourth liners against these superstars and they were shutting them down
- 8:36It was incredible. It was crazy. It was awesome. And then goes to OT
- 8:43What seven seconds in ten seconds in?
- 8:47just
- 8:49Just a regular play that they have just
- 8:52Yeah, the on man rush the post game interview. They were like the the kid who scored he was like we've practiced that a hundred times
- 9:00Hey, literally a hundred times. Yep. I was and it looked it in like so I want to like kind of rewind to
- 9:08When I got to watch it. Okay, so when I got back, so I wasn't at my house
- 9:16I was house sitting for a friend. Yeah, and I could not get their YouTube TV to work
- 9:24I could not get it to work and like it would like come on and then like pause and I was just like
- 9:31What is going on? And I was like turning off the TV. I was like restarting the internet like during like the intermission
- 9:38and then finally I
- 9:41got it to work and then
- 9:46They dropped the puck
- 9:48and
- 9:49Then the first face they had two face offs for overtime
- 9:55They had one face off and then a puck went into the bench on the face off. So they had to do it again
- 10:01Oh, yeah, and then I was like I was like, okay, okay, so I
- 10:05Can just like sit back relax
- 10:07I had just poured myself like a new drink like I was like prepared to be there
- 10:13I was settled in I was like I was prepared to be there for a while
- 10:17And then like I was like, okay, I'm just gonna watch some college hockey
- 10:21I'm just gonna relax not thank too much about this because I also took the future
- 10:26because
- 10:27Got a ride got a ride also in Moneyline, but
- 10:32I mean if you have the future, I had too much on it. So why not take it? I didn't yeah
- 10:37I didn't take the money
- 10:40Yeah, so I was settled in
- 10:43sorry
- 10:47Settled in and I was like relaxing and then they passed it to the right D
- 10:52And I was just like, okay. They they have possession
- 10:56Passed it up to the right wing and I was just like go
- 11:01Go go
- 11:02Then he passed it across to the left wing. Just and he made this crazy move around the goal and I was just like I
- 11:09Was go I jumped up out of my seat
- 11:12I was going insane.
- 11:14I was going nuts.
- 11:17That rock.
- 11:17What a feeling.
- 11:18That rock.
- 11:19That was what a feeling.
- 11:21That was incredible.
- 11:21I was screaming, yelling.
- 11:24Nobody was here.
- 11:28And man, that was just, you don't get rushes like that
- 11:33every day.
- 11:34No.
- 11:34But when they scored in the third period, I got the
- 11:43notification on my phone.
- 11:45And I messaged our group chat, and I was like, this is why
- 11:47we do it.
- 11:48This is why we do it.
- 11:50And the overtime, that is what we do.
- 11:56That is what you live for.
- 11:58The moment's like that.
- 11:59It doesn't come often.
- 12:01But when it comes, you are sky high.
- 12:07You are on the moon.
- 12:09You are cloud nine.
- 12:11Like you are just high of highs.
- 12:13Like you are feeling so great because you were right.
- 12:20Teacher and the national championship and overtime.
- 12:23I was right.
- 12:24You were right.
- 12:25And we all applaud you.
- 12:29We all applaud you, sir.
- 12:30Yes, that was a great win.
- 12:33I got all the boys in the group chat to ride with me.
- 12:38And that was just incredible.
- 12:40On the money line, not on the future.
- 12:41I had the future.
- 12:42Oh, you had the future?
- 12:43Yeah.
- 12:43OK, cool.
- 12:44I'd take it when we talked about it.
- 12:45Yeah.
- 12:46That's when I took it, too.
- 12:48I was like, well, OK.
- 12:50Yeah.
- 12:51I'm up big now.
- 12:54And I'm going to use my winnings to maybe buy a little
- 12:58Quinnipiac merch.
- 12:59I mean, you have to.
- 13:00Yeah, I have to buy like a shirt or a hat.
- 13:03You have to.
- 13:03You don't spit at all, but you have to use some proceeds
- 13:06to support the team.
- 13:09That's what I did last year when I rode Miami and then
- 13:12instead of a tournament, I bought a shirt.
- 13:15I didn't do that this year.
- 13:16I didn't really ride it.
- 13:18Anyway.
- 13:20So yeah, I think I can say I'm a Bobcat now.
- 13:24You definitely should be.
- 13:25I think this is my college hockey team.
- 13:27Go back to back next year?
- 13:29Probably doesn't happen.
- 13:30That doesn't happen.
- 13:31Like, that doesn't happen a lot in college hockey.
- 13:33Didn't know if you want to feel a little frisky.
- 13:34That'd be wild.
- 13:35Will you remind me of the coach's name?
- 13:38Ran.
- 13:41That guy rocks.
- 13:42Yeah, that guy rocks.
- 13:43His first name's Rand.
- 13:44I forgot his last name.
- 13:45Rand has been the coach for 29 years.
- 13:49He is the winningest college hockey coach in NCAA currently.
- 13:56Rand Pecknold.
- 13:57Pecknold?
- 13:58Pecknold.
- 13:58OK.
- 13:59Was it him in the post game interview when he was doing it?
- 14:02He's like, can I hug you?
- 14:03I need to hug someone.
- 14:04Yeah.
- 14:05I was like, this guy rocks.
- 14:06Yeah, I mean, you work for almost 30 years
- 14:10and have the best record of any college hockey coach
- 14:14in the nation.
- 14:16And you win your first title.
- 14:19Like that.
- 14:19It takes you 29 years.
- 14:22And you win it like that.
- 14:24Like, you're going to be emotional.
- 14:26Oh, yeah.
- 14:26No, that's why I loved it.
- 14:27Like, I loved it too.
- 14:29Like, man.
- 14:31It was incredible.
- 14:31I loved everything about that.
- 14:33Like, I'm very sad I didn't get to watch the whole game.
- 14:37I only watched the third period.
- 14:39But oh my god, it was.
- 14:41And I'm glad it was.
- 14:41Incredibly depressed.
- 14:43I would have been like you the entire time.
- 14:44They were down to nothing.
- 14:45Like, what am I doing?
- 14:46I was like, this is over.
- 14:48But like, I would have loved the build up.
- 14:51The ride.
- 14:51The ride.
- 14:52Yeah, yeah.
- 14:53The ride, like your emotional ride was probably a lot better
- 14:59than mine was.
- 15:00Yeah.
- 15:01Because like, when I got out of the movie,
- 15:03they were only down by one.
- 15:05And I was like, OK.
- 15:07Well, they could still turn it around.
- 15:10And then I got the notification.
- 15:12I was just like, hey.
- 15:14Let's go.
- 15:16We're all right.
- 15:16We're all right.
- 15:17We still have a chance.
- 15:18We still have a chance.
- 15:20But I would have liked to ride road that emotion.
- 15:24Like, is it?
- 15:26Road that emotion?
- 15:27Ridden?
- 15:28No.
- 15:29No.
- 15:29It's road.
- 15:30Road that emotion?
- 15:31Yeah, I get it.
- 15:32I mean, road is the past.
- 15:33I don't know, grammar, dude.
- 15:35Very bad end.
- 15:37This isn't a grammar podcast.
- 15:39So it's a good one.
- 15:44What do we know?
- 15:44Not much.
- 15:46I know that I'm a winner.
- 15:51At least he's humble.
- 15:54I don't blame you.
- 15:55I'd be.
- 15:55I mean, let's see.
- 15:58I put like seven units on it.
- 16:00That was like more than triple.
- 16:02I'm up like 25 units.
- 16:06Something like that?
- 16:07Yeah, I got a hit.
- 16:09I didn't put that.
- 16:09I only put like, I think I put a unit on it, which is still.
- 16:13I put a unit on it, but I don't I don't bet like a lot.
- 16:19So like, this was like a huge deal for me.
- 16:22Yeah.
- 16:23This was like, this was like the biggest bet I've ever placed,
- 16:26which was like what I'm trying to get at is like,
- 16:29writing your emotion through that would have been incredible.
- 16:33Yeah, I think like the ups and the downs would have totally
- 16:38been worth it.
- 16:39Yeah, it was.
- 16:40Do you think do you think that Minnesota going up by two
- 16:45was worth it?
- 16:47Yeah.
- 16:48Like, which I got up by four.
- 16:50It's like, it's like it was.
- 16:52Well, if I'm going to be like down,
- 16:54let's just go as far down as we can.
- 16:56Right.
- 16:57If we're going to come out of it,
- 16:58let's just go as far down as we can.
- 17:00Sure.
- 17:01But like, it's like, would you have rather
- 17:04rode the emotional high that you were
- 17:06writing of thinking this is dead?
- 17:11Or would you have rather Quinn Pieck go up by like five
- 17:15and just like the coast in just coast?
- 17:18Well, at the time, I wish they had gone up by five.
- 17:21Sure.
- 17:22At the end of the day.
- 17:23It's been five days now.
- 17:28How do you think you feel about it now?
- 17:32I'm ecstatic.
- 17:33It's, you know, it's almost like.
- 17:35Would you have changed anything about the game?
- 17:38No.
- 17:39OK.
- 17:39No, it was, I mean, it's almost like this is a story that
- 17:45came out of Hollywood.
- 17:46That's kind of an exaggeration.
- 17:47But no, I get it.
- 17:48I get what you're saying.
- 17:49But it's like a movie.
- 17:50That's what you want.
- 17:52Yeah.
- 17:52Yeah.
- 17:53Out of a win.
- 17:54You want to feel the emotions.
- 17:55Sometimes like you want like an easy win.
- 17:58Yeah.
- 17:59But sometimes you want to work for it.
- 18:02Yeah.
- 18:03You know what I mean?
- 18:03No, no, I definitely get that.
- 18:05Yeah.
- 18:05Have that feeling of like a, you know.
- 18:07The ride's half the fun.
- 18:08Yeah.
- 18:09Like a bet being dead and then a slight backdoor cover.
- 18:12And it's like, oh, oh my god.
- 18:18But I mean, yeah, I mean, like first period,
- 18:21they were not the better team.
- 18:23And that was clear and evident.
- 18:25And you can easily see that in in Kalajaki.
- 18:29Like who is the better team?
- 18:31Much like in a lot of collegiate sports,
- 18:34you can just tell who's the better team.
- 18:37But you know, nothing, there were no lines in this game
- 18:41that was like, oh, that's a trap.
- 18:43It was.
- 18:44I think it was set very fairly.
- 18:46Yeah.
- 18:47Quenipiac was a dog.
- 18:49And that was, that's correct.
- 18:50Yeah.
- 18:51Because they don't have superstars.
- 18:54They don't.
- 18:55They just have character dudes that block shots with their face.
- 19:00They just gutsy dudes.
- 19:02Just awesome.
- 19:03Just hockey guys.
- 19:04Just hockey guys.
- 19:04So it's kind of incredible how the NCAA basketball
- 19:11and hockey both won national championships
- 19:15in the state of Connecticut.
- 19:17Is the state of Connecticut back?
- 19:20Were they ever in?
- 19:21I mean, Yukon, those are fifth nanny.
- 19:23Well, yeah, but like, but they did that state ever
- 19:28win another title in the same year?
- 19:31Dominated, oh, in the same year?
- 19:33I don't know, but they've been dominating women's basketball
- 19:36for 20 years, it feels like.
- 19:38Yeah.
- 19:39Yeah, I think Michael Jordan had a joke about that
- 19:41in the last dance.
- 19:42He was chirping someone about how they went to Yukon.
- 19:45And he was like, that's a women's basketball school.
- 19:47That's good.
- 19:50Yeah.
- 19:51So I'm going to move it along.
- 19:53Yeah.
- 19:54I think that's good.
- 19:55Chris, how did?
- 19:56Well, hold on.
- 19:57OK.
- 19:58Mr. XFL.
- 20:01We got to talk about it.
- 20:03Yeah.
- 20:0421 and 9.
- 20:06Yeah.
- 20:07Not bad.
- 20:08Not bad.
- 20:09Not bad.
- 20:10Not bad at all.
- 20:10First losing week.
- 20:11But first.
- 20:13I mean, I didn't like the board.
- 20:15Yeah.
- 20:16But the one that I did love was the one I won.
- 20:21But the rest of them, I didn't like.
- 20:22I like the Guardians, but other than that, I wasn't feeling it.
- 20:25It was a bad week.
- 20:26I could kind of sense it, but I can't win them all.
- 20:30Right.
- 20:30So I mean, 21 and 9 is still pretty damn good.
- 20:33And we're heading to the playoffs.
- 20:36I think there's two more weeks.
- 20:38Yeah.
- 20:38This is week 9 coming up, and then we got week 10,
- 20:41and then playoffs, which I think is like two rounds.
- 20:43But OK.
- 20:45Was there only 18?
- 20:46There's only 18, and I think four make the playoffs.
- 20:49That makes sense.
- 20:50Yeah, it's two semis in the championship.
- 20:52So I'm calm.
- 20:55So yeah, it had to be addressed.
- 21:0021 and 9 ain't bad.
- 21:01Got to get back this week, though.
- 21:03Yeah.
- 21:03Got to.
- 21:04Yeah.
- 21:05But you went on an absolute incredible XFL.
- 21:10Eight weeks of no of not losing.
- 21:12Two weeks of no.
- 21:14Or yeah, well, eight weeks.
- 21:15You went eight no.
- 21:16Yeah, well, no.
- 21:17I went eight weeks.
- 21:18Oh, I see what you're saying.
- 21:19Eight weeks in the season of being ahead or even.
- 21:23Right.
- 21:23Of not losing money.
- 21:24Of not losing money in the XFL.
- 21:26Eight weeks in the XFL.
- 21:32This is just incredible.
- 21:34This is just a slight bump in your road.
- 21:36Yeah.
- 21:37This isn't a stop of a streak.
- 21:39It wouldn't be fun if I just like ran the gauntlet
- 21:43the whole way.
- 21:44Yeah.
- 21:44It's like, it's not even entertaining anymore.
- 21:47You've got to have some adversity.
- 21:49It's exactly what I was just talking about.
- 21:50Yes, exactly.
- 21:51You have to ride the emotions.
- 21:52You've got to ride it.
- 21:53Yeah.
- 21:53I was getting too complex.
- 21:54I needed it.
- 21:55It was a good loss.
- 21:55It was a good loss.
- 21:56Good loss.
- 21:57Good loss.
- 21:57I was getting too complacent.
- 21:58I like it.
- 21:58Got to be on my toes.
- 21:59Yeah.
- 22:00I like it.
- 22:01You got to stay sharp.
- 22:03I like it.
- 22:04Yeah.
- 22:08Yeah.
- 22:09Talking about like this is life or death.
- 22:11Yeah.
- 22:13We're OK.
- 22:13We're OK.
- 22:14If Chris doesn't go three and one in the XFL, we're dead.
- 22:18So what else about you like this past week?
- 22:27I had a master's future.
- 22:29I had a Bruxy top 10, like plus 325.
- 22:34But I ended up barely coming out of head
- 22:36because I also had DJ and Kim Smith top five.
- 22:39And they were nowhere close.
- 22:43But the masters was wild.
- 22:45Good for Rom.
- 22:46Bruxy choked.
- 22:47Is Rom part of Liv?
- 22:49No.
- 22:50No?
- 22:50No.
- 22:51OK.
- 22:52Bruxy's.
- 22:52Bruxy's?
- 22:53Yeah.
- 22:54And then Phil also is.
- 22:56And he tied for second.
- 22:58Which is insane.
- 23:00I had a future on Bruxy the second day of the masters
- 23:04when he was up minus 10.
- 23:07He was at 12.
- 23:0812.
- 23:08Could have been more.
- 23:09Yeah.
- 23:10He honestly, he was 12 under.
- 23:11He could have been about 15.
- 23:12Was the only master.
- 23:13He left a few birdie putts short, at least three.
- 23:17Yeah.
- 23:18Which sucks.
- 23:18I didn't watch any of it.
- 23:19He lost by, I don't remember.
- 23:22He lost by one, right?
- 23:23No, I think he lost by.
- 23:25I don't remember.
- 23:26He lost by a few because he shot like a four over
- 23:29on the last day.
- 23:30Oh, OK.
- 23:32So I mean, I tried to keep up with it.
- 23:34But I can't watch golf without falling asleep.
- 23:39That's part of it, honestly.
- 23:41I don't like that.
- 23:42It's just taking a nap.
- 23:43Because I mean, it's on all day.
- 23:45I know.
- 23:45I don't.
- 23:45You take a little nap, you come out of it, and it's still on.
- 23:48I like just like a three hour period, where I'm just like,
- 23:50OK, I'm going to sit down and watch this game.
- 23:52And then I'm going to move on with my life.
- 23:54Golf is also a good thing.
- 23:56It's on the background.
- 23:57You do some stuff.
- 23:58And you like pop up.
- 24:00You hear some of the guy you bet on's name.
- 24:02And you pop up and watch that.
- 24:04All right, back to whatever I was doing.
- 24:07It's background sports.
- 24:08It is.
- 24:08But then like the weekend, you want to watch it.
- 24:11Because then, obviously, the field's cut in half.
- 24:15The guys are betting on or really coming down the stretch.
- 24:18It was fun.
- 24:19It was a fun tournament.
- 24:21It was very intense, from what I was keeping up with on Google.
- 24:27The live master's board.
- 24:29It looked to be very intense.
- 24:30It was, yeah.
- 24:33A lot of golfers, or two well-known golfers with Drew,
- 24:37from Injury.
- 24:38Tiger.
- 24:39Tiger and Zalatoros.
- 24:40Zalatoros, yeah.
- 24:41Zalatoros with Drew before he even started.
- 24:43Before he started, yeah.
- 24:44And then Kevin Nahl with Drew on the first day.
- 24:47After nine holes, he shot four over and with Drew for an illness.
- 24:52Which he did look like sickly.
- 24:54He did.
- 24:55Yeah.
- 24:56I saw a video of him walking up to a green,
- 24:58and he was just like, I was like, oh, OK.
- 25:01Yeah, I guess.
- 25:02I've played that card in elementary school before.
- 25:06Also, yeah.
- 25:07He was at the time shooting, I remember
- 25:09when he shot in Les Hall, but it was shooting about four over
- 25:11at that point.
- 25:11So maybe he was like, eh, not feeling it.
- 25:14I'm going to fake it, no.
- 25:15Let's go.
- 25:15You might see the clubhouse stuff from Cocktails.
- 25:17Yeah, that's exactly.
- 25:18But it was fun.
- 25:22No, it was fun.
- 25:23Do you have any masters, bets?
- 25:24Well, nope.
- 25:25Nope.
- 25:26OK.
- 25:27I was all about my Quinnipiac future,
- 25:31and I haven't really paid attention to really anything else.
- 25:33You're still riding that high.
- 25:35I get it.
- 25:35Yeah.
- 25:36I get it.
- 25:37Well, I want to pull up some lines for this week's tournament.
- 25:41Which tournament?
- 25:42The RBC Heritage, the golf tournament.
- 25:45You say Arby's?
- 25:46RBC.
- 25:47Oh, I thought you meant like the restaurant.
- 25:50No, this isn't live.
- 25:54I was like, Arby's?
- 25:55The roast beef golf.
- 25:57I wish, man.
- 25:57That'd be hilarious.
- 25:59Let's see.
- 26:00I need to find one of the winning cards.
- 26:02Because Spieth won it last year.
- 26:04He's plus 2,000.
- 26:05He's plus 2,000.
- 26:06I want to see what he is for like top 10.
- 26:08The whole five is brought to you by the big beef and cheddar.
- 26:13I'd watch the shit out of that.
- 26:18What if like, Spieth top 10 is plus 2,000.
- 26:22I'm going to take that.
- 26:24OK.
- 26:24Because he won it last year.
- 26:25He was playing really well the last couple days of the Masters.
- 26:28What if there was like a golf tournament
- 26:30like that was sponsored by like Arby's or let's just say
- 26:33like some like finger food like Buffalo Wildlings, where
- 26:38you had to eat like five wings after every hole.
- 26:41Every hole?
- 26:42Yeah.
- 26:43Oh, that'd be rough.
- 26:44It's five times 18.
- 26:48Someone guess and I'll do it.
- 26:50Hold on.
- 26:51Shit.
- 26:51Shit, shit, shit.
- 26:53That's got to be like 50.
- 26:5650?
- 26:57No.
- 26:58No, that's 6.
- 26:59No.
- 27:01Why can't that be 90?
- 27:0290.
- 27:03It was the 90.
- 27:04Oh, yeah, yeah, 90.
- 27:05Because it carried the four.
- 27:06Also, it's a tournament.
- 27:07So you have to eat 90 chicken wings every day.
- 27:11That's too much.
- 27:12Yeah.
- 27:15I would draw after day one.
- 27:16OK, what if it's like the RBC presented by Hot Ones,
- 27:23where like after every hole, you eat up
- 27:26even increasingly hotter chicken wing?
- 27:29For a sport that's really based around your mental game.
- 27:33Yeah.
- 27:34That would be tough.
- 27:35Yeah.
- 27:36That could come down to show who's the star of our own golf
- 27:40league.
- 27:41I think we should.
- 27:42And call up the Saudis, see.
- 27:44OK, got this great idea.
- 27:46Call up Sean Evans, dude.
- 27:50Hey, do you want to sponsor a golf tournament?
- 27:53Yeah, I would love to sponsor this golf tournament.
- 27:56Spot on Sean Evans impression.
- 28:00Tiger, what's your top five clubs?
- 28:04I don't know.
- 28:08Would that be seriously something you guys would watch?
- 28:10Like a Hot Ones golf tournament?
- 28:12I mean, I don't know if I would take it seriously,
- 28:14but I'd watch it.
- 28:15If you could bet on it?
- 28:17Yeah.
- 28:20I could put money on anything.
- 28:22Yeah, I'm going to watch it.
- 28:25Yeah.
- 28:27OK.
- 28:28That settles it.
- 28:30Flashback to Raptors are up eight at the half.
- 28:34Hmm.
- 28:35Uh-oh.
- 28:37I was going to say flashback to when
- 28:38me and Chris were doing research on the puppy bowl
- 28:43in the days where we used an unnamed sportsbook that
- 28:48wasn't legal.
- 28:50It was before gambling was legal.
- 28:53No, it was legal here.
- 28:55They just didn't have a means to set it up.
- 28:57Right.
- 28:59Yeah.
- 28:59Yeah.
- 29:00What's up?
- 29:01Technically, you guys weren't doing anything illegal.
- 29:04Yeah.
- 29:05But it was we were looking at Super Bowl bets that,
- 29:11like, these are like offshore betting accounts,
- 29:14like, you could bet on literally anything.
- 29:17It's not like these other, like, more than local,
- 29:22but like national sportsbooks where you could bet on,
- 29:28if this guy is going to get this many receptions,
- 29:30or, you know, will a fullback score,
- 29:32you know, something like that, or like a putt within the five.
- 29:34This is like, how many times will Donald Trump tweet about this?
- 29:38You know, that kind of dates when we were looking at it.
- 29:41But it was like, will Ben Affleck be shown at any point?
- 29:47And it's like, these bets are crazy.
- 29:50I know.
- 29:50Is that when JLo was, you know, OK.
- 29:52Yeah.
- 29:53And then, like, under that was Lions for the Puppy Bowl.
- 29:59And they were like, well, we got chicken out.
- 30:01Yeah.
- 30:02And then we checked it out for like, we're like,
- 30:05a long time.
- 30:06Like 10 or 15 minutes.
- 30:08And then we're like, what are we doing?
- 30:10We're not going to watch this.
- 30:11The guy's point where it was like, all right,
- 30:12let's bet on some of these dogs.
- 30:13And I was like, I don't feel comfortable.
- 30:15They're like, I don't know.
- 30:16They're just kids.
- 30:17Yeah.
- 30:17Come on, guys.
- 30:19Yeah.
- 30:19I was like, I don't feel right about this.
- 30:22We're literal children.
- 30:23We were like, man, there's this German Shepherd puppy.
- 30:28German Shepherds are big.
- 30:29He's a shoo-in to get MVP most valuable puppy.
- 30:33Never watched a puppy bowl.
- 30:34Like, I've seen it like on TV.
- 30:36Like, oh, that's nice.
- 30:37I'm going to change the channel.
- 30:39I've never like said, I'm like, what are the qualifications
- 30:42to be named?
- 30:42I would just like to go on record
- 30:43that I was not a part of this.
- 30:45Yeah.
- 30:46I'm not proud of it.
- 30:48I think it's a funny story.
- 30:50So you said the Raptors were up by eight.
- 30:53They're up by nine.
- 30:53They're actually there, but I think I did my math wrong.
- 30:58What do you have?
- 30:59Me?
- 31:00Y'all.
- 31:00I have Raptors on my sets.
- 31:02Bulls plus six.
- 31:03They're by 11.
- 31:04Excuse me.
- 31:045847.
- 31:08How much time's left?
- 31:10Half time.
- 31:10Half time.
- 31:11OK.
- 31:12So that's a good segue into the NBA playoffs, I would say.
- 31:16Yeah.
- 31:16Yes.
- 31:19Let's just go around the table.
- 31:22Who do you have winning the NBA championship?
- 31:24Oh, god.
- 31:26You don't have to bet it.
- 31:27You don't have to bet it.
- 31:28I just want to pull up the lines real quick.
- 31:30That's fine.
- 31:30This would be a fun conversation.
- 31:32I place to future back in March.
- 31:36On who?
- 31:37On the Boston Celtics.
- 31:39OK.
- 31:40Now what?
- 31:41At plus 335, I believe.
- 31:45That's pretty good.
- 31:46It's in the 300 range.
- 31:48Yeah.
- 31:49They were playing the Bucks the day I placed it.
- 31:56And that's essentially what it's probably
- 32:02going to come down to is between.
- 32:06Coming out of the East.
- 32:07Coming out of the East, I'm sorry.
- 32:08Celtics, or Celtics.
- 32:10Sixers could give them a run, but I don't have faith in them.
- 32:14If we've learned anything about Billy Sports teams
- 32:16in the past years.
- 32:16To not believe them.
- 32:17In the East Finals, more than likely,
- 32:24we'll come down to the Bucks and the Celtics in the Finals.
- 32:28Yeah.
- 32:28In the East.
- 32:31Celtics just ran a train on them that game.
- 32:37And I immediately placed a bet.
- 32:38They're at 310 right now.
- 32:40310?
- 32:41Honestly, that might be my pick.
- 32:44I think they won that game by 30.
- 32:48I think I know what she's going to be talking about.
- 32:50It was in the middle of March or something.
- 32:53Or beginning of March, I believe.
- 32:56This is weird.
- 32:57So the Lakers currently have better odds than the Grizzlies
- 33:01to win the title.
- 33:03Yeah, I don't really think that's weird.
- 33:05That's like an NBA.
- 33:06But the Grizzlies are favored to win that series.
- 33:08Yeah.
- 33:09I understand.
- 33:10Riddle me that.
- 33:11That's like an NBA rig type thing.
- 33:13Well, the NBA is rigged.
- 33:17It's the Lebron factor.
- 33:19Yeah, but why aren't they favored in the series?
- 33:22That's just weird.
- 33:23Anyway, Bucks are 265.
- 33:25They're the favorites.
- 33:27Celtics 310, Suns 425, 76ers 950, Warriors 950, Nuggets 1100.
- 33:35The Celtics is the only one.
- 33:37As much as I would love the Nuggets to come out of the West,
- 33:41like just because they have been a very dominant team
- 33:47over the past five years or so, then they haven't done anything
- 33:53with them.
- 33:55It would be great for a team like that
- 33:57to come out of the West and get to the NBA finals.
- 34:03They're just not going to do it.
- 34:06The Warriors at 950, that probably might be better.
- 34:10I mean, it's the Warriors.
- 34:11For a team that can just turn it on whenever they want,
- 34:14especially they play the Kings in the first round.
- 34:16I love the Kings.
- 34:17They're going to win that series.
- 34:21I like that a lot, honestly.
- 34:22I think they're the most complete team in the West.
- 34:24I do not believe in the Nuggets whatsoever.
- 34:27They might lose that first.
- 34:29They won't, but they could.
- 34:31They choke.
- 34:33The Warriors?
- 34:34No, the Nuggets.
- 34:35Oh, the Nuggets.
- 34:36Who do they play?
- 34:37It's got to be determined.
- 34:38They play the winner.
- 34:39They either play the Timberwolves or the loser
- 34:45of the Pelicans and Thunder.
- 34:48Yeah, the Timberwolves play the loser of Pelicans, Thunder.
- 34:53And then that game will determine who the Warriors will play.
- 34:56No, the Nuggets.
- 34:57Whoever wins that plays the Nuggets.
- 34:59It's playing to stupid.
- 35:00The playing tournament is so dumb.
- 35:00I hate the playing tournament.
- 35:01It's so fucking stupid.
- 35:03Did you watch the Laker game last night?
- 35:05No.
- 35:05It sucked.
- 35:06I was so hot.
- 35:08That game sucked.
- 35:09That third or the fourth quarter, especially.
- 35:11I mean, god.
- 35:12There were like three possessions in a row where each team just
- 35:14threw the ball out of bounds.
- 35:17The Timberwolves didn't make a shot the last like six minutes
- 35:21of the game.
- 35:23Who wants to lose this game?
- 35:26It kind of felt like a little bit like it was like, OK,
- 35:30Adam Silver called in.
- 35:31It's like, hey, the Lakers are losing.
- 35:32Like, let's fix this shit.
- 35:35They have to win.
- 35:36But then it was also like the, I keep saying Warriors now,
- 35:41that Timberwolves just couldn't make a shot.
- 35:43Like, they were wide open and they just couldn't make a shot.
- 35:46So I was like, OK, maybe they're just that bad.
- 35:50Yeah, I mean, if we've learned anything from Minnesota sports
- 35:55teams is to not believe in them at all.
- 35:56I mean, that's fair.
- 35:58So I think, I mean, I think the Warriors are plus 950.
- 36:04That's the best value play.
- 36:06Yeah, that's for a team that can just turn it on.
- 36:10I mean, I honestly wouldn't be surprised
- 36:12if we get a repeat of last year's NBA finals.
- 36:15For sure.
- 36:16Celtics.
- 36:16I guess.
- 36:17I really would not be surprised.
- 36:19With the way that the NBA is run and everything
- 36:22that goes into it, I would not even blink an eye
- 36:27at if you transported me into third week of May.
- 36:32And then I saw that the Warriors and the Celtics
- 36:35are playing the NBA finals.
- 36:36I'd be like, well, that makes sense.
- 36:39I think it's honestly like, I know
- 36:40that people have been saying the West is wide open, which it is.
- 36:43But I think the Warriors are just by far the most complete team.
- 36:46I don't believe in the Suns.
- 36:48And the Warriors play the Suns.
- 36:49Yeah, I mean, the Suns.
- 36:51No, that's not right.
- 36:51The Suns play the Clippers.
- 36:52Yeah, the Suns play the Clippers.
- 36:55It's just, it's tough to believe in like the super team.
- 37:02You know, three, whatever.
- 37:05And it's also Chris Paul.
- 37:06Yeah.
- 37:07Who just doesn't do well in the playoffs.
- 37:10Yeah.
- 37:10Through his fault or his team's fault.
- 37:12He just doesn't.
- 37:14Yeah, it's my favorite tweet is that Chris Paul,
- 37:19after he played, after they played the Bucks in the finals,
- 37:22he's like, I'm addicted to playing in the finals.
- 37:25Every year, it's like, shout out Chris Paul
- 37:27for being two years clean.
- 37:34It's pretty good.
- 37:36That's funny.
- 37:38Yeah, I mean, like, it's, I mean, I guess the Suns could
- 37:42make a run, you know?
- 37:44I think they, I mean.
- 37:45When on paper, you put like Chris Paul and Kevin Durant
- 37:49and Devin Booker.
- 37:51On paper, it's like, this team should make a run.
- 37:56Just, but that's not really how it happens anymore.
- 38:00Yeah, I'll probably put a, actually, I definitely will.
- 38:03I'm going to put a feature on the Warriors.
- 38:05Yeah.
- 38:06I don't like it, but I mean, I don't.
- 38:08It's whatever.
- 38:09I don't like it.
- 38:10So you all two are on the Warriors?
- 38:11Yeah.
- 38:12I guess so.
- 38:13I really like the Bucks too.
- 38:14I mean.
- 38:14I like the Bucks, but I just don't like taking the challenge.
- 38:17Yeah.
- 38:18It's, you know, you know, if it wins and it's like,
- 38:22you're great, I won, but you know, I don't know.
- 38:26This is the man who just cashed a future.
- 38:28Yeah.
- 38:29But like, they were, they weren't the favorite though.
- 38:32They're only plus two 10.
- 38:33So it's like a plus two 10 and like you're waiting like a whole,
- 38:37like there are like money lines that are plus two 10.
- 38:40It's like you have to wait a whole like, especially the NBA
- 38:42playoffs like two months, cashed a plus two 10.
- 38:45Like I want to go a little value shopping.
- 38:48Yeah.
- 38:48I guess, but I mean, at the end of the day,
- 38:51I would never be mad that I won.
- 38:52Yeah.
- 38:53It's about the ride.
- 38:55You know, it's like, it's about the like round one to the game seven.
- 39:01If it gets there, like it's, no, I get that.
- 39:03I get that.
- 39:04I would, I think the Warriors are better.
- 39:08Yeah.
- 39:09I think they can just, they, they're just like the regular season doesn't matter.
- 39:14Let's just get the playoffs and okay, let's just play.
- 39:17Fuck you, ball.
- 39:18Even though I am going to take Kings money line game one because that place is
- 39:21going to be rocking first playoff game in 20 something years.
- 39:2526 years.
- 39:26That could be awesome.
- 39:27Yeah.
- 39:27No, it's 26 years, 20 something years.
- 39:30Yeah.
- 39:31I did hear that like the Celtics are like kind of injured.
- 39:35John Brown did something to his hand.
- 39:37You like cut his hand open like a jar or something.
- 39:40He's picking up a vase, which that's bullshit.
- 39:42Yeah.
- 39:42That's such bullshit.
- 39:44Yeah.
- 39:44He's probably open a jar of pickles and.
- 39:48Yeah.
- 39:48He's too strong.
- 39:51I think like something happened, something like weird happened.
- 39:53Like picking up a vase like who does that?
- 39:56Yeah.
- 39:56It's not hard to pick up like a cylindrical item.
- 40:00Well, I think I assume it was, I think it was like a broken vase, but like it's
- 40:03not hard to just like I'm going to try not to cut myself here.
- 40:08I also like don't get a okay granted.
- 40:15I'm not a professional athlete at all.
- 40:18I will say that.
- 40:19I know it's hard.
- 40:20But I am, I do play sports and if I'm like injured, it takes me like a week to play.
- 40:32Why the hell has Zion Williamson only played 29 games?
- 40:40I don't know what's going on.
- 40:41I don't like, I mean, like just like stuff like that.
- 40:43Like I know he has like a hamstring injury right now that could take like three to four
- 40:48months to heal.
- 40:50What did you do?
- 40:52They're just not, they're not, did he just like completely tear it off of his like muscle?
- 40:56Well, they're also saying that he came out recently.
- 40:59It was like, I'm physically good.
- 41:01Yeah.
- 41:01I also saw that.
- 41:02And it's just like, and then I saw a thing.
- 41:04So the team just like, yeah, you're good.
- 41:07It's just like, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't get it.
- 41:11Why does it take like athletes so much longer to recover from injury and like I'm older
- 41:22than most of these athletes that are playing.
- 41:25I don't, I really don't.
- 41:27I guess I just want to, with him, with Zion specifically, I think they just want to make
- 41:30sure he, because they are investing in him.
- 41:33Right.
- 41:34But like the entirety of his career, they don't want to like rush him back and he fuck
- 41:38up his hamstring and that's like, I mean, God.
- 41:41Damn, he's been in the league.
- 41:42Oh, I know.
- 41:43It's, it's ridiculous.
- 41:44He's played like 20 games.
- 41:45It's ridiculous.
- 41:46Yeah.
- 41:46It's 2019.
- 41:47I don't put it 2019, right?
- 41:49He was drafted first overall.
- 41:51Yeah.
- 41:51Correct.
- 41:522019.
- 41:53So I don't remember.
- 41:53I believe so.
- 41:54I don't know.
- 41:57I don't know if it's entirely on him or years.
- 41:59Yeah.
- 42:0029 games.
- 42:02I don't know if that's entirely on him though, because I remember, I think it was last year.
- 42:08He was hurt and then like the pelicans like, well, we don't want to like rush him or anything.
- 42:13And then video came out of him throwing down like Tomahawk dunks in practice.
- 42:17So it's like, okay, he's fine.
- 42:18You're just, I think it's partially on the team as well.
- 42:21Like, yes, he does keep getting hurt, but I think it's, I mean, not wanting to rush
- 42:26him back.
- 42:26And I think I get that, but I think they're being a little candy ass about it.
- 42:30Yeah.
- 42:31Like, I mean, but like, he's just a jury prone.
- 42:36If you just like, but also like, if you just cut your hand, wrap it up.
- 42:41You can still play.
- 42:42I think that's also like, with that, if they were playing like best players, if they were
- 42:47playing like a series, like they could beat the Hawks without, without Jalen Brown and
- 42:52probably without Jason Taylor.
- 42:54The Hawks are, they're, they're not good.
- 42:57I know they just demoralize the heat, but they're, they're not good.
- 43:01They could beat him without those.
- 43:02They can definitely be without Jalen Brown.
- 43:04Yeah.
- 43:04So I think that's kind of like, if they're going into the game, they're going into
- 43:06the conference finals and be like, yeah, let's wrap it up.
- 43:09Let's just fucking pull it.
- 43:10I don't know.
- 43:10This, I'm, like I said, not a professional athlete.
- 43:13I don't, I don't know, like all the ins and outs of the league and everything.
- 43:17But when I, when I play my games, I want to be out there whenever I can, whether I'm
- 43:24like 100% or not, like, shouldn't like all athletes theoretically have that like idea,
- 43:35like in their head, like, like, I know that increases your chances of getting more hurt.
- 43:45But no, I get that.
- 43:48I, yeah, I don't know.
- 43:50I, I just struggle with like stuff like that.
- 43:54Like I, that's the stuff like I don't get at all.
- 43:59Lions just had injury issues.
- 44:02I mean, you can't go back to college.
- 44:04So I think they're just not wanting to, which it's kind of getting to the point where it's
- 44:07like, okay, yeah, you don't want to rush him.
- 44:09And it also, it's, it's, we're kind of up on year five.
- 44:11Like he's got to, he's got to play.
- 44:14Yeah.
- 44:15It also comes to the sense of like, do you want to play like, especially with like a
- 44:20player like Ben Simmons?
- 44:22Ben Simmons is.
- 44:23Do you want, do you not to play?
- 44:26No.
- 44:27Ben Simmons is not going to play basketball.
- 44:28Do you like, I, as ridiculous as that, he doesn't care about basketball.
- 44:32That's ridiculous.
- 44:33He's also getting paid several millions of dollars.
- 44:37So I think that probably has something to do with it.
- 44:39Like if I get like $50 million to the center of my ass, I'll be like, I'll do that.
- 44:44Oh, I get it.
- 44:46It's, I mean, Ben Simmons is the definition of candy ass and mental midget or whatever
- 44:51you want to call him.
- 44:52I mean, I know money talks and if I was waived like millions of dollars in my face to like
- 44:59to me just say, just like, just be like, Oh, I'm hurt.
- 45:04Yeah.
- 45:05I might do it, but also like that is like my job.
- 45:11Yeah.
- 45:12That's what I get paid to do.
- 45:13I mean, that's like, whether I can like, that just irks me so much.
- 45:20Zion and Ben Simmons are two, I think those are two very different things.
- 45:23I don't want to split teams just handle them different.
- 45:26Ben Simmons doesn't want to play basketball.
- 45:27Those are, he's done.
- 45:28Those are two very different scenarios, but they are in the same like, Oh, the same like
- 45:32frame of mind.
- 45:33Yeah.
- 45:34Yeah.
- 45:35I get there are two different ideals of, of playing while you're injured.
- 45:38Yeah.
- 45:39And I just, I don't, I don't get either side.
- 45:43I really don't.
- 45:45And I only really feel like it's like that in the NBA, the players run the league.
- 45:52Yeah.
- 45:53Oh, a thousand percent.
- 45:54Like it's, that's, I mean, that's it.
- 45:58And they can do whatever they want.
- 46:02It's kind of, I don't know.
- 46:04I mean, on one hand it's like, you should have a little bit more control in like what,
- 46:09how your career goes.
- 46:11But at the same time, it's like, you signed a contract to play for this team.
- 46:17And now you are requesting a trade because you don't want to be on the team, but you
- 46:22signed a contract.
- 46:23And signed a super max and wanted to trade this year.
- 46:28Yeah.
- 46:29Didn't get it.
- 46:30But still.
- 46:31James Harden.
- 46:32Like James Harden is actually very good.
- 46:35Yeah.
- 46:36I don't, I don't think James Harden is going to win a championship.
- 46:39It's, it's tough to see, you know, he's never missed the playoffs.
- 46:42That's wild.
- 46:43Yeah.
- 46:44All right.
- 46:45Moving on from the NBA, the NHL playoffs are about to kick off.
- 46:48There's still a couple more games to go.
- 46:52We know the teams in the West.
- 46:53We don't know the seeding exactly.
- 46:57Probably either Vegas or Edmonton will probably get the one seed.
- 47:03Really just comes down to the next game.
- 47:07Because they, they have one game left and the Avalanche and the Stars have two games
- 47:15left and the Wild has one.
- 47:19So unfortunately our beloved predators didn't make the playoffs.
- 47:24You know, on one hand it's like this kind of sucks because you know this AHL roster
- 47:29of these young dudes that we got, you know, they, they've been playing their nuts off.
- 47:32But you know, all for naught.
- 47:35But at the same time it's like we didn't really expect them to do this.
- 47:41So I don't know.
- 47:43Future's looking bright.
- 47:45You know, it's a, it sucks, but it's kind of bittersweet.
- 47:50Yeah.
- 47:51It's pretty bittersweet.
- 47:54What'd you say about Minnesota?
- 47:57Just about in the NBA?
- 47:59Like they can't, they just lose.
- 48:02They just lose.
- 48:03They can't get it done when it matters.
- 48:05They can't get it done when it matters.
- 48:07Like they, they played the Jets last night.
- 48:10Just got their asses handed to them by the Jets.
- 48:14Bunch of bums.
- 48:16That was rough.
- 48:18Yeah.
- 48:19Minnesota essentially held the fate of the Preds in their, in their hands and just
- 48:27shat all over it.
- 48:28They didn't care.
- 48:29Yeah.
- 48:30Literally just shat all over it.
- 48:31But I would have loved for the Preds to make the playoffs this year.
- 48:35Just get those young guys, those that playoff experience, whether you get swept and or bounced
- 48:41in round one.
- 48:42I don't think it really mattered, but you, but to know the like playoff atmosphere kind
- 48:48of important.
- 48:51So, but I did place a future for what you said weeks ago for the Edmonton Oilers to win
- 49:03the Stanley Cup.
- 49:04Let's go.
- 49:07I think it makes the most sense.
- 49:10Connor McDavid, 150 points and counting.
- 49:15Yeah.
- 49:16First player since 2002?
- 49:20I thought it was like 95 or 96.
- 49:24Yeah.
- 49:25Okay.
- 49:26Even better.
- 49:27First player in long time.
- 49:30Three decades almost to score 150 points in a single season.
- 49:36I've said this before, but the Oilers are a Porsche parked in a trailer park.
- 49:42Yeah.
- 49:43They really are, but McDavid will get a cup.
- 49:48Yeah.
- 49:49Eventually.
- 49:50Yeah.
- 49:51He will get a cup.
- 49:52And I think it's a smart bet every year if you just place a future on the Oilers to win
- 49:57the Stanley Cup.
- 49:58As long as they have Connor McDavid.
- 50:00Yeah.
- 50:01As long as whatever team Connor McDavid is on.
- 50:03Yeah.
- 50:04If you just place a future at the end of the season, it's going to happen eventually.
- 50:08You might go down a few units, but yeah, it'll make up by the time he actually gets it.
- 50:15Yeah.
- 50:16It's a ROI.
- 50:20The only, the number one thing that the Oilers need in order to make a run is gold tending.
- 50:29If they can get that, they're cruising.
- 50:32Yeah.
- 50:33They're like, they have three players that have over a hundred points.
- 50:37Yeah.
- 50:38It's insane.
- 50:39Yeah.
- 50:40It's pretty wild.
- 50:44Connor McDavid scoring 60 goals.
- 50:47That's over over 60 goals.
- 50:50It's stupid.
- 50:52It's crazy.
- 50:53So you can tell that how many parts is he going to have after this?
- 50:58Three.
- 50:59Three.
- 51:00Yeah.
- 51:01So, I mean, he's a slam dunk for the MVP, the heart trophy.
- 51:06Slam dunk for Rocket Award.
- 51:08Not even close.
- 51:10Yeah, not even close.
- 51:13I mean, that's our pick.
- 51:16But I think that, you mentioned Minnesota, I think that they're probably going to end
- 51:24up playing the stars.
- 51:26Most likely.
- 51:27Most likely.
- 51:28And the stars are going to get one.
- 51:32That's just what I think.
- 51:33Yeah, probably.
- 51:34The stars are good.
- 51:35Yeah.
- 51:36They're a good team.
- 51:37I mean, it's...
- 51:39Stars have 240 goal scores, I think.
- 51:43I believe so.
- 51:44I know that's Pavelski.
- 51:46Pavelski, the other one.
- 51:48Say it.
- 51:49Robertson.
- 51:50Yeah.
- 51:51Oh, yeah, they have Robertson.
- 51:52Yeah.
- 51:53Yeah.
- 51:54I mean, they're just a great team.
- 51:55Not the bottom.
- 51:56They're just solid, you know?
- 52:00And Minnesota is like, they're kind of overachieving for what they're at.
- 52:07I still think they have some building to do.
- 52:09For sure.
- 52:10But as long as they can keep their core, like, pre-sov, and basically just him at this point.
- 52:20And boldy.
- 52:21Yeah.
- 52:22But as long as they keep those guys and build around them, I feel like they could be...
- 52:27They could win the division eventually.
- 52:30But as long as the Aves have Kale McCarre, it's going to be hard.
- 52:38It's not just...
- 52:39It's not just McCarre.
- 52:41It's Nathan McKinnon, Gabriel Llandislog, and yeah, the whole damn team.
- 52:47But...
- 52:48But I do think that McCarre is hurt.
- 52:53I think he's injured.
- 52:55And I don't know if Llandislog is going to come back.
- 52:59I think he's had like a...
- 53:01He's been out for a long time.
- 53:03Yeah.
- 53:04He's had a gruesome injury.
- 53:05I don't know.
- 53:06I can't remember what it was, but...
- 53:07He's been out for a while.
- 53:08They still have McKinnon and Rantonum, so...
- 53:09They're still really good.
- 53:10They're still really good.
- 53:11They're still really good.
- 53:12But yeah, it is a fight right now for the top seed.
- 53:18Or the top seed in the...
- 53:20Sorry.
- 53:21Central Vision, but I'm kind of hoping the Oilers get the top seed in the West.
- 53:28Yeah.
- 53:29Yeah.
- 53:30And they play...
- 53:31And they'll play Winnipeg.
- 53:32Winnipeg.
- 53:33And that'd be cool, you know.
- 53:34Yeah.
- 53:35It's like a...
- 53:36Canadian.
- 53:37Canadian series.
- 53:38Yeah.
- 53:39That'd be cool.
- 53:40And Oilers were just...
- 53:41DUSTED.
- 53:42Oh yeah, they were just DUSTED.
- 53:43Just...
- 53:44Just good.
- 53:45That would probably be a five game series.
- 53:46Yeah.
- 53:47I think that's Star's Wild series.
- 53:48What do you think that would be?
- 53:49Game for probably Star's in like five, six.
- 53:50Yeah.
- 53:51I'm gonna say six.
- 53:52That's fair.
- 53:53Yeah, Star's in...
- 53:54Star's in six.
- 53:55Star's in five or six.
- 53:56I don't really see a lot of upsets in the West, if I'm being honest.
- 54:09Yeah.
- 54:10Who's the cracking gonna play?
- 54:11They'll play either the Knights...
- 54:12No, no, no.
- 54:13Well...
- 54:14My play...
- 54:15Depending...
- 54:17They'll play the Central Division winner.
- 54:20Oh, okay.
- 54:21So more than likely it'll be the Avalanche.
- 54:23The Avalanche.
- 54:24Okay.
- 54:25And the...
- 54:26The Crackin have kind of been all like on a slide.
- 54:29I think...
- 54:30They're...
- 54:31I think the Nears have been...
- 54:32Has been hurt.
- 54:33They're frisky.
- 54:34They are kind of...
- 54:35They're kind of shifty.
- 54:36Yeah.
- 54:37They are shifty.
- 54:38I could...
- 54:39I could kind of see them...
- 54:40Making a little...
- 54:42Well, first... second year of existence, first year in the playoffs.
- 54:46I could see them winning a series.
- 54:50Just kind of...
- 54:51Interesting.
- 54:52Just kind of like...
- 54:54Just a dog, you know.
- 54:56Just like...
- 54:57Seven seed.
- 54:58Just kind of...
- 54:59If you're not picking up stuff.
- 55:00Grinding all year.
- 55:02Like...
- 55:03Yeah.
- 55:04I could see them...
- 55:05Being a...
- 55:06Pretty big upset.
- 55:08Like, yeah.
- 55:09I could actually see that.
- 55:11You know, in the East beats Boston.
- 55:14Because...
- 55:15Really.
- 55:16Yeah, nobody.
- 55:17President Struff, we win or never wins it though.
- 55:18I don't care.
- 55:19Uh...
- 55:20Like, I know they were fucking wagging.
- 55:22I really...
- 55:23Dude, the East...
- 55:24The East kind of sucks.
- 55:25Yeah.
- 55:26The East is not as competitive as the West.
- 55:30For sure.
- 55:31I'm going to try to think...
- 55:32Columbus swept Tampa a few years ago.
- 55:34Yeah.
- 55:35Shit is wild shit happens.
- 55:37So I didn't know if there was like one team that was like,
- 55:39I'm going to play these guys.
- 55:41I don't know what to think about these teams.
- 55:43I mean...
- 55:46Maybe the...
- 55:47If they get that far, maybe the Devils could...
- 55:51Maybe the Devils could give them like,
- 55:54get them to seven.
- 55:56Maybe.
- 55:57Maybe.
- 55:58But that would be like in like the...
- 56:00The Eastern Conference Finals, if they make it that far.
- 56:03Yeah.
- 56:04That would be a tough road.
- 56:05Yeah.
- 56:06So...
- 56:07It's just like...
- 56:09The Bruins are, you know...
- 56:12They're like one of the best teams that we've seen ever.
- 56:15Yeah.
- 56:16Statistically, they are the best team to ever exist.
- 56:19Yes.
- 56:20Regular team.
- 56:21Yeah.
- 56:22So...
- 56:23It's like...
- 56:25It's tough to gauge what...
- 56:30A possibility for them to lose.
- 56:33So...
- 56:34It's...
- 56:35I mean, they...
- 56:37I think it'd be tight if they lost to the Oilers.
- 56:40And it's called Final.
- 56:41That'd be wild.
- 56:42That'd be wild.
- 56:43That's...
- 56:46That's tough, because they just play such great team defense.
- 56:49What'd you have?
- 56:52I've got Stars 60-minute line.
- 56:55Plus 100.
- 56:57They're up four to two over the Blues.
- 57:00At the middle of the second period.
- 57:02But there is...
- 57:05Whoops.
- 57:06There is currently still one playoff spot open.
- 57:11Uno spot.
- 57:13In the...
- 57:14In the East.
- 57:15Oh, that's between the Islanders and the Penguins, right?
- 57:17Yup.
- 57:18So the Pins are like plus like 500 or something to make it?
- 57:20Yup.
- 57:21If the...
- 57:22If the Islanders win in regulation or get to overtime at all, they will make the playoffs.
- 57:31So if they get a point...
- 57:32If they get a point...
- 57:33If they get a point...
- 57:34If they get a point...
- 57:35They are playing the Montreal Canadiens.
- 57:37Oh.
- 57:38Yeah.
- 57:39But...
- 57:40They're up three to two...
- 57:43New York.
- 57:44In the second.
- 57:45New York is?
- 57:46At the end of the second.
- 57:47Yup.
- 57:48I saw an interesting stat today that the Canadians are three...
- 57:52Or ten and three in their last 13 in New York.
- 57:58Like the state of New York or against the Islanders?
- 58:02Against the Islanders.
- 58:03Okay.
- 58:04Wow.
- 58:05And they're against the Islanders, yeah.
- 58:08Interesting.
- 58:09So I didn't bet it because it was...
- 58:13Yeah.
- 58:14Not worth the trouble.
- 58:15Not worth the trouble, but...
- 58:17Yeah.
- 58:18I have a guy on my hockey team that is currently at this game.
- 58:23He flew to New York to be at this game.
- 58:28Damn.
- 58:29It's their last regular season game.
- 58:30Yeah.
- 58:31Also, this is their 82nd game.
- 58:33So...
- 58:34So yeah.
- 58:35So yeah.
- 58:36Also, the West is all messed up.
- 58:39There are two games behind.
- 58:42Thanks, Preds.
- 58:46The famous Black Friday Flood.
- 58:49Yeah.
- 58:50Well...
- 58:51We've been going over quite a bit, so I think we're going to cut it off there.
- 58:56We'll probably talk a little bit more about the NHL next week.
- 59:00Just because...
- 59:01You guys just know what's happening.
- 59:02Teams will be set.
- 59:03The antropes will be set.
- 59:05Odds will be out.
- 59:06Yeah.
- 59:07Yeah.
- 59:08They might have played a few games.
- 59:11So goodbye then.
- 59:12Maybe not a few, but maybe one or two.
- 59:16Are we sure?
- 59:17No.
- 59:18I'm not sure at all.
- 59:20Because the regular season ends Friday.
- 59:23Okay.
- 59:24Oh, maybe.
- 59:25Yeah, maybe.
- 59:26Maybe.
- 59:27The playoffs might start Tuesday, actually.
- 59:33Okay.
- 59:34Okay.
- 59:35So we'll take a closer look at that later.
- 59:39But right now, before we close out, I'm going to throw it to MrXFL.
- 59:44Still, MrXFL.
- 59:46You always be MrXFL.
- 59:48MrXFL.
- 59:50All right.
- 59:51You got to shake off the monstrosity that was a losing week last week.
- 59:57Ugh.
- 59:58Still pains me to say it.
- 1:00:00But it's okay.
- 1:00:01Four games, four winners.
- 1:00:02What better way to bounce back and sweep the board?
- 1:00:05Start off.
- 1:00:06Vegas Vipers Houston Roughnecks.
- 1:00:08Roughnecks favored by six and a half over under 43 and a half.
- 1:00:12Roughnecks can't cover just at all lately.
- 1:00:14I don't know what it is.
- 1:00:16They just can't.
- 1:00:17Give me the Vipers plus six and a half.
- 1:00:19It's too big a spread.
- 1:00:22Guardians Brahmas.
- 1:00:24Second game on Saturday.
- 1:00:25Brahmas favored by a point and a half over under 39 and a half.
- 1:00:30I wrote them last week.
- 1:00:32They hurt me.
- 1:00:33Give me the Guardians again.
- 1:00:35Give me Moneyline.
- 1:00:36Screw it.
- 1:00:37Plus 100.
- 1:00:38The Brahmas are good.
- 1:00:39Their offense sucks.
- 1:00:40They're far and away the worst offense in the league.
- 1:00:43Guardians offense is actually really good.
- 1:00:46Should be interesting to see.
- 1:00:47But I think Guardians can win this game.
- 1:00:49I do not like the Brahmas at all.
- 1:00:52Next game, Renegades.
- 1:00:54Renegades Defenders.
- 1:00:57Defenders favored by eight and a half over under 41 and a half.
- 1:01:02Give me under 41 and a half.
- 1:01:04These Renegades games just stay under.
- 1:01:08I think I saw like their average score, like combined score in the years like 28.
- 1:01:14That's like for it like combined, like combined both teams in the game.
- 1:01:19It's like 28.
- 1:01:20Like their average?
- 1:01:22Their average, the average score of their games is 28.
- 1:01:24Yeah.
- 1:01:25For both teams.
- 1:01:26That's insane.
- 1:01:27So give me under 41 and a half.
- 1:01:28Defenders games always go over, but the Renegades are cheeks.
- 1:01:34Close it out with Game of the Week.
- 1:01:36Sea Dragons visiting the Battle Hawks.
- 1:01:39Battle Hawks are rolling right now.
- 1:01:41They just won first ever XFL or XFL, I guess what, 3.0 overtime game.
- 1:01:53Sea Dragons, Moneyline again.
- 1:01:55Give me another dog minus 105.
- 1:01:58They're just better.
- 1:02:00I think they're just better.
- 1:02:02I think the Battle Hawks are very good.
- 1:02:03This game will be fun.
- 1:02:05I just think Sea Dragons will edge it out.
- 1:02:08Just keep it simple this week.
- 1:02:10Four bets, four no.
- 1:02:12No pageantry this week.
- 1:02:14You gotta get back to the basics.
- 1:02:16You gotta win some bets.
- 1:02:17Not lovin' around.
- 1:02:18No messin' around.
- 1:02:19You messin' around last week?
- 1:02:20Didn't really mess around by...
- 1:02:22But you found out.
- 1:02:24Yeah.
- 1:02:25Yes.
- 1:02:26But you found out.
- 1:02:28But no, it was good.
- 1:02:31It was a character loss.
- 1:02:33Yep.
- 1:02:34So you needed it.
- 1:02:35You bounced back this week.
- 1:02:36Going into the playoffs coming up in a couple weeks.
- 1:02:39Yeah, pretty pumped.
- 1:02:41Could be exciting.
- 1:02:43Mr. XFL playoff mode.
- 1:02:45Might play a couple futures.
- 1:02:46We'll see.
- 1:02:47Okay.
- 1:02:48We'll get those as soon as we have those.
- 1:02:52Yep.
- 1:02:53If they exist.
- 1:02:54USFL starts this week.
- 1:02:56Oh boy.
- 1:02:57Are you gonna become Mr. USFL?
- 1:03:00We'll see.
- 1:03:02Not rolling it out.
- 1:03:03First just a football guy.
- 1:03:05Yeah.
- 1:03:07Not rolling it out.
- 1:03:08I don't like it.
