Let's just let's let's get into it. The NHL playoffs are off to a start and so are the NBA playoffs
0:55
But I am going to ask the boys how they've been doing. How you been doing Chris?
1:03
Not great
1:07
Baseball has been just kicking me in the nuts lately. I did alright last night. I've been doing pretty well today
1:13
I'm three one and one so far a lot of day games today, but yeah, not not good
1:19
I think last night was my first winning day and like about a week so but I think
1:27
Okay, starting to turn the corner baseball is always just awful in the beginning. Mm-hmm
1:34
It's a marathon that's baseball
1:38
Yes, I say, you know that old chestnut
1:42
Yeah, not great
1:44
No, no, they're bad weak in the XFL
1:46
We can touch on that a little bit later. We will but you asked me how I'm doing and that's how I'm doing
1:54
Wanted to know say don't ask if you don't want to know say it for the corner. Okay. Well, I can talk about it
2:01
But
2:02
Yeah, well, it's alright. We're I think we're gonna turn a corner here
2:06
I will Sean how how did you do since since the last time I am on an 11-day cold streak
2:16
Fucking way she goes. I have not made a profit in 11 days. I think I was something like that
2:23
Yeah
2:25
So
2:28
Not great
2:30
I am up on the day so far
2:36
I have
2:38
I've unfortunately the Lakers minus one and a half a lot of ball
2:43
But doesn't look that great right now. There's a score on that and I also have a
2:49
parlay
2:51
for the Oilers game it was Oilers in 60 and Connor McDavey to score
2:57
Plus one 66 so
3:02
If I can get
3:04
One more what was McDavey to score like minus 150 or something?
3:08
It's normally minus 110. He was like minus one 30 in game one. He was minus 125 today
3:15
Oilers in 60 was minus 150. So I
3:20
am
3:22
Okay, we have the we have the Bruins Panthers game on in the background. Yeah
3:28
So if if something happens I
3:31
Have the under in this game
3:33
So if something happens Florida just scored, but it's one enough. Yeah, it's second
3:38
We're fine, and we all know if it's it's a game you want to watch it's a game you have the under it
3:44
Well
3:46
The under in the other game too
3:48
This this this game just has better teams
3:52
That's true
3:55
But I also have been quite cold
3:58
Since my my massive future win
4:02
God always finds a way to make it even
4:06
It's kind of humble. Yeah. Yep
4:08
so I
4:10
Haven't really been giving out picks on Twitter. I took a break for for a little bit
4:16
because
4:18
like
4:19
The last like 10 games are like the NHL season are just so
4:24
unpredictable and
4:26
You really don't know what you're gonna get so I took a little break
4:29
But I'm betting on the playoffs and historically I am terrible in the playoffs
4:35
But I'm that doesn't matter to me. I'm still gonna try
4:38
Playoffs, what am I gonna do not bet on it?
4:40
It's ridiculous. So the first two games I had six bets and I won one of them
4:49
Has not been going great, but today we turn a corner
4:53
I got the under in this Bruins Panthers game Alex Lyon just made an amazing save
5:01
And then I have the under in Islanders Keynes
5:04
and
5:06
like those two teams like the Islanders play just really good defense and
5:13
The Keynes do as well, but the Islanders just can't score. So that's under five and a half all day
5:22
And then for the other two games tonight, I have Dallas stars 60 minute line
5:28
Because they lost game one and they're favored in the series
5:32
They they taken they have to win this game
5:37
They have to win this game and they are at home. They have to win this game and so the Oilers I
5:44
Hammered the Oilers tonight to win in 60. I took I
5:49
Can't remember I've told you all this but before the game the stars wild game one
5:54
I took stars minus one and a half on the series
5:57
Okay, because I think the wilder cheeks
6:00
And well, no, that's a great start. There's I did take Tampa. We know this Tampa did win the series and they
6:08
Molly walked. Yeah, that was awesome Toronto. I mean, they're probably gonna win next game now that I've said this but they they suck I
6:17
Don't care how good they are in the regular season. They always find a way
6:20
Mm-hmm. Just a fucking rip there just rip your heart out
6:24
I saw a thing that there's like things that weren't around the last time the the Leafs want to play off series
6:32
And it was like YouTube. Oh, Twitter. Yeah. Oh, no Twitter Instagram YouTube's been a lot Xbox 360
6:40
Like the we like the iPhone. Yeah. Yeah
6:45
This is like before was it? Yeah, I
6:48
Hope they just go forever. I hope they go 20 I hate them so much. I hate their franchise
6:54
I hope they go 20 years. I hope they go 30. Honestly, I hate them
7:00
Yeah, it's the Canadians just don't like them don't like the cut of their jib
7:05
But the Canadians suck so it's hard to hate them. Yeah
7:10
The Leafs are just they're cursed. I don't know why yeah, but they are
7:16
They did nothing wrong
7:18
Yeah, a lot of things right
7:20
Very good team. Yeah, they've had a good team for the for a good majority of like my life
7:28
Yeah
7:29
They just can't get it done. Well, they always end up playing like the Bruins
7:34
Yeah, so it's like they always end up playing like good teams
7:40
Except for when they lost to Columbus in the in the bubble
7:43
Was well, what shouldn't count for anything? Yeah, yeah, I guess I
7:50
Yeah, the lightning won the cup that year. Yeah, it was our first. Yeah. Yeah, it doesn't count
7:55
Well, they wanted to do after that. So yeah, they went back to that. Yeah, that's right. It's like well, maybe
8:03
But I do agree about that with like
8:06
the NBA
8:08
LeBron's Mickey Award. Yeah, I mean I
8:10
Disagree with or I agree with I don't think either should count because if you don't have to play a road playoff game
8:18
It doesn't count that's got that's like the hardest thing to do in sport. It's play a road playoff game
8:24
Yeah, it's all about the grind. So I don't I don't I mean the light. Yeah, the lightning won the next year
8:28
So it's like, yeah, well, I really feel that was kind of jib, but yeah, I mean
8:33
The heat made the Eastern Conference like yeah, and it was just like Jimmy Butler and Tyler hero
8:39
Yeah, and I was like, I know they're good, but I mean they barely made the playoffs this year
8:43
I don't think they're very good. I mean damn this the stars made the the West. Yeah, they did West that year
8:50
That was that that came out of nowhere. It was like you barely squeaked in here
8:59
But yeah, NHL and NBA is in full swing I
9:04
Mean we're probably not gonna touch too much on the NBA
9:08
It's just you know this the first round is not
9:14
not, you know
9:16
The matchups are quite lopsided in the NBA typically in the first round of the playoffs these the West is pretty even
9:23
Yeah, the East I hope the Warriors get swept. I wouldn't love nothing. Yeah, I kind of hate them now
9:29
Yeah, awesome. It's I hate this whole like bad boy persona. They have like yeah, Dreymon's a scumbag
9:36
He's been a scumbag. He's been a scumbag. This Thompson has turned it an asshole
9:41
Yeah, and Steph is now just like with us when he started doing that like night night thing. I was like, okay, like
9:47
Relax, you like come on like why are you guys pretending to be like bad guys all of a sudden like Dreymon's your bad guy?
9:53
Let him be the asshole. Yeah, but now you don't need three every one's being a dick
9:58
I'm like, I'd hate you guys now. So I want the king. I want the king's to drag
10:02
Also, the king said an amazing season. Oh, yeah, and the Warriors like
10:08
Every year they limp into the playoffs just being like, oh, we'll just turn it on. See, no, you don't get to do that
10:13
Yeah
10:14
But I do not works for him. I know but I do not respect that. Yeah, I don't I don't respect that mindset
10:21
The Warriors have just I mean throughout the season. They were awful on the road. Yeah, so the fact that they've lost like to like
10:27
Game two Kings pulled away, but for the most part very close games on the road
10:34
I was surprised. I thought honestly if they lost they give me by like 20
10:37
You just kind of like oh well like they're down by like five with like a minute or two minutes left
10:42
Like I will we'll get him next time and then the Kings bad their lead
10:45
But kind of a Kings guy right now. I'm hoping they they make a run. I'm hoping they get light the beam
10:51
Yeah, just keep playing. I like Sabona's to play for the Pacers and you know die hard Pacers fan
10:56
Obviously
10:59
Yeah, maybe I should be a Kings fan now. I don't care
11:02
So I was gonna be a Grizzlies fan this year and I was like, yeah, well John Rance kind of a dick
11:09
He came out he came out of nowhere being like an asshole too. I think he's just I don't know what's going on with that
11:16
It's I think like he got some
11:19
like slack for acting
11:22
Hood when he's kind of not he's not at all
11:25
But then now he's trying to be yeah hood in a sense, but it's just like at the same time you make a
11:34
Billion dollars. He doesn't make a million. He makes a lot of fucking money. Yeah, you don't you don't need to act
11:41
No, anyway, bring in little pea shooters to the strip club
11:46
Yeah
11:47
Just just play basketball, bro. It's just basketball
11:52
Play the game
11:54
You're not hard like oh, I mean the game you play is hard. Yeah, but the action playing the NBA
12:00
I know I know it's hard, but just
12:04
Going out there just stepping on the court. Yeah, like that's your job. Just go do your job. That's what I meant to say
12:10
Just go do your job. I agree. Don't be this
12:16
Don't act like you're in a
12:18
In a
12:20
I don't know where I'm getting at it. Yeah
12:26
Don't act like you were from Memphis
12:33
Just because you're the best player on grid on the grizzlies doesn't mean you need to act like you're from Memphis
12:40
But
12:41
We're mainly paying attention to the NHL
12:45
Let's see what happened last night, so
12:47
The Leafs got smoked
12:51
Got smoked that was got smoked Devils. I hope that series goes seven just because like
12:58
The devil this devil's team is just so young and fast like I want to see them go
13:05
The distance with the Rangers. I think the Rangers like I don't think they're
13:10
real
13:11
Like I think they could potentially make it to the conference finals and that's
13:18
That's their ceiling in in my head like yeah, they are stacked
13:24
I was talking to Sean about this before I recorded they are stacked, but they're new stacked
13:29
There's not like Patrick Kane has been okay
13:33
And you say they're kind of like the Phoenix sons of the NHL
13:37
I
13:40
Know it's not the exact same, but if you're gonna compare them to an NBA team. Yeah, it's it's yeah, it would probably be that
13:53
Yeah, I guess I mean the sons are stacked, but they're kind of old except for book but
13:58
It's like they're kind of like news like they brought in Katie
14:02
Yeah, they got it brought in the ringer obviously Kane is on the same level as
14:06
What Kevin Durant? I think I think having a team like that is
14:12
almost
14:16
Thirsty thirsty boy
14:22
But having a team like the Rangers where you load up, you know making trades all year and
14:28
Pulling away with Terrence Sanko and Patrick Kane and
14:32
Anybody else? Uh, they got those are the big ones, but I think they got Micaela from the Blues as well
14:41
And he's been like a a third pairing D who's just
14:45
stops everything
14:47
It's almost
14:48
He's been a beast. It's almost like they're they're too good if that like they're they are
14:54
They're too stacked with what they are. They don't really like
14:58
Have an identity. They just have good players and that could be that could end up being like a liability
15:04
It's only one puck. Yeah
15:07
That makes a lot of sense. I mean
15:09
That's my favorite Patrick Kane
15:12
one of the best like American players of all time, but like
15:17
He I don't think he has it anymore like especially on five on five. He's still good on the power play, but like I
15:25
Don't think I I think having him out there on the five on five is more of a liability than than anything
15:32
And I can see why the Blackhawks really didn't get much for him
15:38
Yeah for like they got like a second round pick. Yeah for him and like he's making like 10 million dollars
15:46
Yeah, which I don't even know how they're affording this team. I don't know either. Yeah
15:52
Well, this is like Taryn Sinko has a big contract
15:55
Kane has a big contract
15:57
Panarin has a huge deal. I think I'm a ched has a massive deal. I think I remember
16:05
There was a lot of like three team trades at the trade deadline where
16:10
Other teams work would come in and get like a third or fourth round pick for like retaining 30% of a salary
16:16
All right, I think I think I remember that
16:18
I'm the coyote special. Yeah
16:22
But I like what you said
16:24
They're a stacked team, but it's they just have good players. Yeah, it's not a good team
16:29
That's not a good team. They have good players. Yeah, I can definitely see
16:35
Why they made it to the playoffs, but when it comes late crunch time you only get
16:43
seven games max. Mm-hmm, so you think
16:46
Devils have a chance to one this yeah, I definitely think they have a chance
16:52
They're just too young. No, I think I could see this series going to seven
16:56
I really could and I could also I could see the Rangers
17:00
I could see the Rangers winning in seven, but I could also see the Devils winning in seven
17:04
I know that's not much of a stance at all. I mean, it's just like
17:09
Mm-hmm. It I see this series going to seven and it's going to be
17:14
It's going to come down to the last goal. That's how this series is going to go
17:18
I hope so
17:19
It's it's been really entertaining to watch from the one game
17:23
It's I think what really tests a team is when you get smoked
17:30
Mm-hmm in like a game and it really matters at home
17:34
Yeah, score in that game five to two. I was five to one
17:38
I didn't say I stopped paying to everyone was like four to whatever the hell you can check
17:44
But yeah five to one Devils are currently minus 130
17:48
To win the series. No for next game. I was surprised. I thought that might be dogs
17:53
But they were they were they were favorited so they were favorited last game. Yeah
17:59
See what there's actually been a number of upsets and just the first game
18:03
The one of them double wild Kings being the oiler. It's not to interrupt. No, you're good. Yeah, because I'll Kings
18:12
Jets, yeah, that came back. That came out of nowhere cracking against the defending champs when they won that game
18:20
Yeah, yeah, I fell asleep. Yeah, three to one. Wow. Yeah for them
18:25
And I'm gonna take ass puck line to my obviously
18:29
Rangers Rangers were were dogs. So we'll throw them in there
18:34
Missing anyone
18:39
Yeah, cuz I remember
18:41
The first day. Oh lightning. Yeah, yeah the first day the Bruins were the only
18:47
Favorite to win. Aren't they?
18:50
Hurricanes, the Hurricanes. Yeah, that's right favorites went two and two on the first day
18:54
I forgot about the Hurricanes and then the favorites went one and three yesterday
19:00
Yeah, man, the Devils are plus 150 to win the series right now
19:05
What are the Rangers minus one like minus 169 or something like that? Well, I mean that makes sense
19:10
I think coming back from one game 180 nice isn't
19:14
No, especially when you're still at home. Mm-hmm like if they're on the road
19:18
I won't I won't bet that series just because like I I don't have a stance on it at all
19:24
Yeah, it's just I it could literally go either way, but I did I
19:30
Would bet that it goes to seven. I'm either gonna bet
19:35
No, I'm thinking cuz that's just said abs puck line tomorrow night
19:39
I'll you do that or I'll set it out and then if the crack and win I'm gonna go all in on abs to win the series
19:45
Hmm because that's probably see what they are right now
19:49
But I feel like they probably they're honestly probably still favorite. Oh, they definitely will be but if they go down to oh
19:55
I can see them being dogs
19:57
Were you getting the odds from the action?
20:03
But right now Colorado still minus 141 yeah
20:08
On action 24-7 but back to what I was saying
20:11
with
20:14
What really matters with a team in a series is if you can get smoked in one of the games and come back and win
20:23
then
20:24
You're okay
20:26
Yeah, you can you have the potential
20:29
to
20:30
To move on from a loss
20:33
Except if you're the Toronto Maple Leafs. Yeah
20:36
Yeah, they're
20:38
They have some voodoo going on up in Toronto, but if if you get smoked in one of your games and you're able to come back you are
20:46
You are okay. It. Yeah. Yeah, it's just one game. Yeah, it's one game
20:51
Not like you've got at least
20:54
For you've got at least three more games. Mm-hmm turn around. Yeah, not like the Nashville Predators
21:00
I feel like whenever we got smoked in the playoffs. That's it like it in like a single game series is over. That's just
21:10
Yeah, what was the abs game one score? I think that was like seven to two or something something that was
21:17
I mean, we weren't gonna win that
21:19
We were no no no we were definitely not like we're gonna one that game and I'm like we're not gonna win this
21:24
Series, you know one that game seven to two is like cool. We're gonna lose. I went to game four of that series
21:32
not fun
21:35
It's just
21:38
But
21:39
Predators are playing hockey. So we're just gonna move on from that. You know who is still playing hockey
21:44
Ellie Tolman, yeah that her scoring the very first postseason goal in
21:51
In franchise history for the Seattle Kraken
21:55
Not bad for a guy. They picked up off waivers John Heinz. Well, he's done a lot of bad things
22:02
He should be fired for that alone
22:04
I'm not sure if that was really his decision, but I mean he's had to have some input
22:09
I mean, I definitely think it was part of it
22:13
But I feel like if he went to like he was like, no, we we have to keep this guy
22:18
Then boy would be like, all right. Well, we'll keep him around. Yeah, I'll try and send down someone else, but
22:24
It's it's just like I don't like Michael McCarron and
22:29
Like big sexy. No, I don't he's fine. I
22:33
Mean, I don't he's not good hockey player, but I'm not really sure that why that's his nickname either
22:37
It's always confused. I think it's ironic because you know, he's kind of is he ugly. I mean, he's not very attractive
22:43
I mean, he's big. That's like I know he's big but
22:51
It's just he's on like he was on the like him like
22:54
Player assistance program. So you can't move them when they're in that. Yeah, you can't no, I didn't know that it's part of the CBA
23:02
Makes sense. But I didn't know that and so they had to send down someone
23:07
for like roster reasons or something and
23:09
and
23:11
your first round draft pick from
23:14
17 years ago 2017
23:18
Yeah, so
23:20
It's rough anyway, but um
23:25
That's a good segue and just Fred's talk
23:31
My dad actually made a good point about John Hines, but I do like have some
23:37
Concerns whether about him being the future coach of the Nashville Prodators
23:43
I
23:43
Feel like we're gonna give him another like he's gonna he's gonna be the head coach next year
23:48
He is going to do it because
23:51
He almost took
23:54
And I say almost like kind of lightly, but he almost took
23:59
And it
24:02
Come here. I was just starving noise
24:04
But John Hines almost took a
24:09
Minor league team to the playoffs
24:12
He almost he almost got them there and
24:15
Yeah, they fumbled the bag like in the most important game that mattered getting shut out by the Jets, but like
24:24
So we were like you were right there so
24:27
Bring him back if we bring him back next year go to the playoffs smoked in the first round again
24:34
You think he's gone? So I would I want him gone. I don't I'm not saying I want to keep it
24:39
Oh, no, I'm but like I want him gone tomorrow. I think I agree with you. I think he will be back
24:44
Yeah, I hate that but I think he will be back
24:47
But if it's like last year go to playoffs gets smoked by the abs or fucking whoever in the first round
24:53
Do you keep do you just bring him back again? Because at that point he'll be he'll John Hines has never made it past the first round
25:00
I mean the NHL playoffs when you play off games has he won like three. He's won three with us
25:06
He's like I think he made the playoffs once when he was the coach of the Devils
25:13
He made him twice
25:15
Does that count the bubble?
25:17
Um, yes, it was certainly the postseason well
25:21
I don't they counted as the postseason but but it wasn't the playoffs because wasn't it like the thing
25:27
We played the coyotes wasn't that like a play-in series? It was but kind of does that count as it
25:33
It does because he is three and eleven
25:39
He's three and eleven in the postseason with the Predators
25:43
two games split
25:45
or one two games against Carolina in the
25:49
COVID year like the
25:51
Condensed season year and we won one game against the coyotes in the bubble and then we got swept by the abs
25:59
Yeah, I was one of that three. So yeah, that makes sense. Yeah
26:03
Yeah, so yeah that that does count as a postseason cool win. I think that
26:09
Where he's probably gonna return
26:15
It really depends on how the roster
26:21
pans out for me because
26:26
The the new the new guys like
26:30
They played great like Novak played great
26:33
Evangielista like both of those players are on the team next year Tommy Novak is a stud. Yes
26:42
So it
26:44
It it I don't know it really depends
26:48
He's he's not the coach of the future that is see that's the thing where I'm like, why don't we just can them then?
26:53
Yeah, I mean like I don't yeah
26:55
Yeah, you almost got us to the playoffs with that a HL roster, but like if you're not the coach of the future then like
27:01
but also like I
27:03
Know unless I don't have a guy out there. I don't why why can't we?
27:08
Win like that with the big money on the ice
27:12
Why can't we why can't we make a playoff push with big money on the ice like when when we had like everybody healthy?
27:21
I
27:22
Think it was like right before Christmas like that's when I think everybody was like healthy. Mm-hmm. I think we were like
27:30
Second to last in the division or something. Yeah, like behind the we were behind Arizona. Yeah
27:37
Yeah, we were pretty booty and it was just like what is going on?
27:41
But it's like how come he can take these
27:45
Like minor league players, they're still good players. They are obviously like NHL level players
27:51
They have proven themselves to be as such but
27:54
these these
27:56
Forsberg Duchain like
27:58
Joe Hanson, I mean, you know, he's doesn't count. He's still a stud
28:05
But I
28:08
Don't I don't understand it like I don't I think I think that uh, sorry to interrupt you. No, I just got one point
28:16
I
28:17
think that
28:21
The almost going to the playoffs with the minor league roster
28:25
has
28:27
more to do with
28:31
These young guys getting their shot. Yeah, I mean I think that they're they're they're young and they want to
28:38
Skate fast and play the puck and that's fantastic. Yeah, but and like when we played Carolina
28:47
Like towards the end of the season was one of our last games
28:50
We won three to nothing Carolina is one of the fastest teams in the NHL like
28:57
average speed was and
29:00
No one can really like keep up with them
29:04
but
29:06
This young team because they're so young and so quick they were able to like put the beaten on
29:14
I think
29:16
like
29:18
In
29:20
Certain players. It's like like Novak
29:24
He's been in Milwaukee for like years
29:29
And like this was like he's like, okay, everybody's hurt. This is my shot. Yeah, and so he
29:36
He played every game like it was a playoff game
29:39
Yeah, he and like I think in cases of like
29:43
Evangelista he's like, okay, this is like my shot, but I haven't played a lot in Milwaukee. Yeah, and
29:51
That's okay
29:54
Sort of like a happy accident. This is evangelista guy. He's a stud. I
29:59
I'm very excited that he is on our team. Yeah
30:02
And
30:03
Yeah, Tomasino's back
30:05
Hopefully he makes the roster next year
30:07
Now that like Grandlands out and like we traded away need a rider. That's that's two of our top. You know, they're gone
30:16
I mean like
30:18
That's two of our top six that's that's out. So I won't be surprised if
30:24
Joe Hanson is not on the roster next year they would have moved him if he was healthy. Yeah, yeah for sure
30:30
It's I don't see if they're looking for like a cap dump
30:34
You know send them down to Arizona
30:38
Yeah, give him a shot there
30:42
But I
30:44
think in you know
30:46
most of the
30:48
AHL players cases like this is like their shot and you know, it is their shot
30:53
That this is their tryout. This that's how that's how the league works if you got to get called up
30:59
From the AHL when you're not ready for the NHL and you got to prove it that you're ready
31:05
Yeah, and some of them did so I think that was I
31:10
Don't know. I feel like that was more of a factor rather than John Hines
31:15
But I mean that's also been like his like why he was brought in is because he's good at developing young talent allegedly
31:21
allegedly seen it pan out yet, but
31:24
So it's like we kind of did I mean, I'm only did but it's I mean
31:28
That's like we'll see this upcoming year if he comes back if it was guys just being hungry or oh he actually is a very good
31:37
like
31:38
Developer of talent. Mm-hmm. So I think we'll see
31:41
and like
31:43
the thing with like developing talent is
31:47
I
31:48
Guess he never really had like
31:52
Young players to I
31:54
Guess develop if you don't count like with the devils
31:59
Like with us. Oh, okay, because we had a roster when he came in. Yeah, we had we had, you know, we had like a couple guys like
32:06
You know, it was like he was good. Yeah, but then he tapered off. Yeah, and like five draft picks for
32:14
Yeah, and we had not playing in the playoffs
32:17
You know we had
32:19
Tolvinin
32:21
He definitely fumbled that
32:23
And
32:26
Tomasino who ended up going down that was not great
32:33
Same with like glass he spent a bunch of time in the in Milwaukee, so I mean
32:40
There's a lot of ifs futures bright though. The future is bright
32:44
This is what should have happened like
32:46
Like what two years ago during the competitive rebuild. Yeah, this is an actual competitive rebuild. I'm just like we bring in a few guides
32:54
I was like no, everyone's like
32:57
Brings in the question. It's like are we like I know we were like sell we were sellers at the trade deadline
33:04
But are are the Nashville predators in a rebuild?
33:08
Yes, but it's but like so far it's ahead of schedule. Yeah, because everyone
33:14
We dumped everybody who had like a veteran that had
33:18
Like a non like a not massive contract. Are you in a rebuild if you're competitive?
33:23
So that's the thing. It's like yeah. Yeah, but you're you can be a way ahead of schedule at least and so far
33:29
I mean great. It's been half a season. Yeah, so
33:33
Some kid win like I mean this team could win 20 games next year. Yeah
33:37
We're speaking like they're gonna win, you know, yeah, 50 so but I mean as of right now
33:43
Yes, the teacher is very bright for where we are in this. It looks like it looks break rebuild. Yes. Yeah looks bright
33:50
But oh wow
33:57
Five and a six and a half it was six and a half. Oh, you're fine
34:00
Oh, let's just get the period right into the period. It's two to one Florida in the the Bruins came so
34:11
for you
34:15
Grizzlies are up nine for those who were in the cane game
34:20
It was too to at the break
34:22
No, yeah, still too to with about 12 minutes left if I don't have another winning day, I'm going to go full Costanza
34:32
I just
34:35
I
34:36
Some's got a change. I've had to do that with baseball. Honestly
34:41
That was other a few it was like all last week. We're just losers
34:47
This is just so tough, but
34:49
It's a grind
34:53
Playoffs are all essentially a new season. Yeah, and it's so different. Yeah so much faster
35:00
All right, moving on from the NHL
35:04
Do you want to talk about baseball for a little bit? Yeah, okay? What's up?
35:10
What's up with ball
35:12
Um
35:15
Yeah
35:18
Not good not looking good
35:22
I mean talk the town is the rays. They're
35:27
15 and 3 right now. I think
35:29
Something like that. Oh, I can't remember what's our record was before today and they won't they beat the shit out of the Reds again
35:36
I mean the Reds suck I was before we get into the Reds the rays the rays aren't that good
35:43
They are they have played. Let's that they played the
35:48
Tigers
35:51
Marlins maybe they play the Tigers someone shitty the Red Sox
35:56
The Blue Jays were good and now the Reds
35:59
So they played five series four of those teams suck ass
36:02
So they played five series four of those teams suck ass like the red the Red Sox are like the at best
36:10
Yeah, so they're not that good. They've played
36:13
They've played one like good team and they went one and two in that series. So they're gonna come back to earth
36:20
They're so good. Don't get me wrong, but they're not like this world beater that they're playing like right now. Yeah
36:26
The Reds are the Reds are just comically just they're a comical friend
36:34
They got they had a guy making his big league debut today. He didn't even finish the second inning
36:39
He went was he pitching? Yeah. Oh, he went. Let me pull up his stat line
36:44
I was I just checked it on the game and it was like automatically was like six to nothing in the first inning
36:56
Yeah, this guy named stout. Oh, no, he went further than I thought he went four innings and the first thing though
37:03
He gave up
37:05
He got six runs
37:07
Not the way you end up going for any like he settled down after that, I guess he gave up six
37:15
He only gave up one after that
37:18
Glad he ain't getting his head too much. I guess yeah, but I mean shit
37:21
That's rough. You got to make your big league debut against the best team in baseball right now. Yeah, but they lost eight to nothing today
37:29
Yesterday same race team. They lost 10 to nothing
37:33
So that's yeah good
37:35
But the day before that they won eight to one
37:38
against the race
37:41
And then the Philly series was like
37:43
The definition of like Reds baseball making zero sense. Yeah first game. They lost eight to three second game one thirteen to nothing
37:53
Third game lost fourteen to three
37:57
This team is no, it doesn't they have well
38:00
It actually does if you look at it because I have three really good pitchers to really good pitchers one that's decent and the rest
38:10
If you think about it like that it does kind of make sense
38:14
I mean there's dumpster fire
38:16
I said this a couple nights ago like at the front office gave a shred of a fuck about this team
38:23
They could be like an actual like good team, but they don't they haven't given a shit about this in this team and like
38:30
10 years something like that. It's just like
38:34
baseball so I
38:37
Mean like there's no way to compete with
38:41
Big teams like there. I don't agree with that can't see world can't see Roy's one the World Series
38:46
Five years ago, and they went to another one the year after that
38:49
They're about a small market to team but like I get that that's like the narrative
38:54
That's like oh well
38:55
It's like we need a salary cap because we can't compete with like the Dodgers and that right?
38:58
It's like well also the Nationals won a World Series
39:02
So it's just like well my point is just
39:07
Like
39:09
The owners I don't think you can like compete like with the Yankees like
39:15
You have to give a shit about your franchise if you are the New York Yankees
39:23
Yeah, but if you're like the Cincinnati Reds owner. Yeah, like
39:28
Phil Castellini you well Bob Phil is like the acting he's you are
39:36
This is just an investment that you're just letting it run like by itself like you're just like well
39:43
People are still gonna go no they're not
39:47
Like they are not like two days ago. It was the lowest attendance in great American ballpark history. Oh really yeah
39:54
And it was I mean it's been terrible this whole race series
39:58
Okay, never mind. So it's like no I feel like that's their thought process. Yeah, that's a lot process
40:03
I mean literally I think it was last year two years ago Phil Castellini
40:07
It was the home opener essentially blackmail like
40:11
No, he was like they asked him was like, oh well some people are questioning like
40:16
The direction of this franchise someone asked him that and he was like what are you gonna do like where you gonna
40:22
Are you gonna root for another team like where are you gonna go? Yeah, like that
40:25
mindset is absurd like this is the home opener
40:29
opening day is a holiday in Cincinnati and
40:33
You're just like, yeah, well what are you gonna do?
40:36
for another team
40:38
I
40:40
After that happened like he said that I was like I want naturally a team so I can stop being a fan
40:45
Yeah, and then when the Castellini's either die or sell the team whichever comes first
40:54
What when I heard you say that at like a party or something I was like I am as loyal as it gets
40:59
Yeah, you are and I was like I can't wait to have an excuse to not be a fan of this team. Yeah, I
41:05
Have nothing okay nothing is a team. I hate the ownership more than they are like
41:13
the the Dan Snyder of
41:15
Major League Baseball, they're not like God awful people like Dan Snyder is yeah, but they
41:20
Could not care less about their team. Yeah, so I guess they're like the
41:25
The Fords the Lions owners sure so if so, yeah, so that makes more sense. Yeah, but
41:31
What do you want to do?
41:33
When they sell that team and I'm we pop and bottle like it will be my world series
41:39
Yeah, when they sell that team or someone dies and they just don't care anymore. I
41:44
Hate to say that but I hate them so much
41:48
That's what would you say that most Reds fans agree. Yeah, what's your yeah?
41:53
I mean last year it was like every loss you go on Reds Twitter and it was training was like hashtag sell the team Bob
41:59
Okay, so
42:01
everybody hates them
42:06
They're the I think
42:08
Just needs to be one group and just not go to games
42:13
I mean, I mean they kind of are yeah, honestly, they didn't sell out opening day, which like
42:18
You can't do that. It's like I said in Cincinnati opening days a holiday and
42:23
There were more people in the street than like at the oh, yeah
42:26
I
42:26
If I didn't if I wasn't going to the game I would yeah if I lived in Cincinnati too, it's like yeah
42:32
I would just go party for the day. Yeah, not go to the game. Who cares? Yeah, anyway
42:36
That little section outside that that ballpark. I don't know what that's called with that like Street of bars and stuff
42:42
That's awesome. It's awesome. Shout out to fish bowls fish bowls rocks
42:47
Never been so it's fun time should go
42:51
I've been to Cincinnati
42:53
Once yeah, it's great city. Yeah, it's nice. That's like this
42:58
The city is awesome. They love the team for like
43:03
No good reason really
43:05
It's there. Yeah, this is the oldest franchise in baseball
43:09
Yeah, it was at one time in the 70s was the greatest team like the who's like 74 to 77
43:16
It's like those are the greatest teams ever
43:19
in 90
43:21
Butcher this thing is 92
43:24
Maybe they went wire to wire
43:26
Like first place the entire season. That's never been done
43:32
In baseball, that's I mean you were first place the start of the season and you won the World Series. Oh
43:37
Wow. Yeah, that's insane like you were first place every day
43:42
Sorry of the season
43:44
Okay, never been done before and especially in a hundred sixty two game season
43:47
Probably never see that probably you probably never see that in any sport and the cast leaves are wiping their asses
43:55
Your money yes
44:00
Anyway, I like how before this you're like, yeah, I could talk a little bit about the rights. Well, you got me started
44:06
I guess I could talk a little bit about the right. Got me all whipped up. I've got to go to the arcade
44:22
Well, that's baseball are you done I can't be yeah, well, do you have more to say about them?
44:30
But I mean that was a nice little it was a nice little rant though. That was fun
44:34
Yeah, but yeah, it was fun. We really got you started. You did I wasn't expecting. Yeah
44:39
Well, hopefully to calm you down a little bit. Maybe we can
44:43
Talk a little XFL Chris's you want to do that? We can do that. Let me pull the lines right quick
44:52
Guys yes, I've been hearing some rumblings on the street
44:58
Chris Walker isn't mr. XFL anymore. I haven't heard that I I've heard it
45:02
I've heard I've heard I've got my my ear to the
45:07
Whatever that saying ground. Yeah
45:10
We know the floor, but it's outside
45:13
Who's ever saying that we should break their fingers. I'll do it who said that
45:20
Point it out
45:22
Name names right now. I want names heard some rumblings because I'm back-to-back losing weeks
45:27
Okay, that's not good. That's and it's not up to my standards either. I'm not happy with it. So
45:34
Last week of the regular season
45:37
Why not go for it? I
45:41
Can't think of a better time to do it. Let's start the playoffs with a bang for no back on three. All right
45:47
We'll start Saturday Orlando Guardians versus the St. Louis Battle Hawks
45:57
Battle Hawks minus nine over under 47 and a half
46:01
the Guardians are
46:03
One of the worst teams I've ever seen play football
46:07
But there will be
46:09
Flashes where they're actually really good. It's they are one of the most confusing teams. I've ever seen
46:14
It's like sometimes they'll play really well and they're one and eight
46:19
Are they the Cincinnati Reds of the XFL? I guess you could say that I
46:25
Guess you could say that
46:27
So last game this season. I mean they have nothing to play for
46:32
Except just to go out there. I mean pretty much their entire season
46:37
So go out there and ball I'll take them plus nine
46:39
Battle Hawks, I appreciate they got whooped who battle Hawks last week. Yeah. Yeah, exactly
46:51
I'm pretty sure they're going I don't know the standings off the top of my head, but I mean
46:58
One last time they bet the Guardians why not it's been fun one last ride one last ride. It's that
47:05
a Vin Diesel that I was thinking of
47:10
Bad boys where it is like one last ride
47:18
And then we'll go
47:20
next game defenders at
47:23
Brahmas defenders minus three over under 42 defenders have it all locked up their best team in the league
47:30
Brahmas have I'm pretty sure have to win and the Renegades have to lose for them to get in the playoffs. I
47:36
Would expect the defenders to rest some starters because I'm like their top seat no matter what so that this game means nothing to them
47:42
Hungry Dog runs faster Brahmas plus three my sprinkle money line
47:47
I just went over. Yeah, damn it. Damn it. Damn it
47:51
It's okay Chris is giving out new way. It's okay. No, and I get you
47:55
I'm gonna be Brahmas plus three. They need this one defender stone might sprinkle money line, honestly
48:02
They're Brahmas are scrappy. They're not very good, but what's the Rocks team? Yeah
48:09
the owners team
48:13
But yeah, I mean yeah, you're right
48:16
This will be my team got that rock mindset
48:19
Okay, next game Houston Roughnecks Arlington Renegades Roughnecks have the second seed in the playoffs locked up
48:29
Excuse me locked up. They are plus one over under 42
48:33
Again, Hungry Dog runs faster Renegades money line
48:38
I'm pretty sure if the Renegades win
48:41
They will play the Roughnecks in the playoffs
48:44
Ah, so I can see Wade Phillips was like hey, I don't want to like
48:49
Show show my full hand here. Yeah, so I can see the Renegades winning this one if they do
48:54
I'll be taking Roughnecks whatever that spread is in the playoffs
48:58
And then close it out
49:01
Vegas Vipers Seattle C Dragons C Dragons minus eight and a half over under 47. Give me the over
49:08
Vegas's offense has come alive the last few weeks C Dragons offense. I mean it's been great all year
49:13
so
49:15
Last game the last bit of an over there we go. I love it. Let's sounds like for no to me honestly it does I
49:22
Love it
49:24
Hell yeah, I'm pumped. This is we're back baby. We're back. Yeah. Yeah
49:29
Just go into the playoffs
49:31
Still mr. XFL still still mr. Got to put they'll always got to put the haters in their place
49:37
Yeah, you'll always be mr. XFL. Yep
49:40
So, um, is you're the only person that I know that that's on the XFL this I might switch to USFL honestly
49:48
I think I think you have to okay
49:52
Started last week. Yeah, I know I didn't I didn't pay attention whatsoever. Yeah, I
49:58
Thought I couldn't even name every team if I'm being honest with you
50:01
I I got a message about the Memphis showboats game for work. They win. I don't know and I was like
50:11
Oh, yeah, they're a team. They Memphis has a USFL team. Oh, yeah, I'm gonna look that up. Oh, they played today
50:19
I'm gonna look that up. I have no idea who they played or if they won
50:22
I don't even I couldn't name you another USFL team
50:26
I didn't know any of the tips if you put a gun to my head besides the Memphis showboats. They lost to the Philadelphia stars
50:34
Stars are good
50:37
I they're supposed to know that because they went to the ship last year. So, okay
50:44
Oh, they got the stallions next week. Oh stallions stallions won it all last year. I'm pretty sure
50:49
So that so my dabble my dabble my dabble next week probably not but we'll see
50:55
If baseball does well for me dump on you again. Oh, no, I mean no, if I make money in baseball
51:01
Oh, you know, let's throw a little on. Yeah, I got you USFL. I got you make sense. But if I'm struggling, no
51:09
Not I'm not even bed on like the NHL
51:16
Well
51:18
That's gonna be it for us
51:21
