talk about college football and little bit with him.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Uh, that's what's up. You know what a night Saturday.
It was for a bunch of reasons. The Arkansas game
is tough. I just want to get out of system
and just say there's tough with loss by three, and
it's made me sick. But do you guys know your guarantees,

Speaker 3 (01:34):
I haven't missed a guarantee yet. Okay, okay, hey you relax.
We've been doing this for two weeks.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Hey, what was yours?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Mine? What was Jacksonville? Right? Jacksonville?
Speaker 6 (01:42):

Speaker 6 (01:50):

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Oh man? Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
They have to running back score like forty or fifty
points in fantasy between a chain and most is crazy.
That's the lack of the year. Okay, So Eddie is
the only one who host ten bucks this week? Bucks,
I'm hey, I'm a hundred.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
There you are.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
We lost it sucked. I did bet one thousand dollars
on them to cover though. Oh dude, that was just
last minute for you. Now did that? How did that happen?
I told you guys, that's free money, but I don't
ever listen to that word pretty smiles.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
I'm just talking about my own selfie.
Speaker 6 (02:27):
But you were so confident that it was just.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Like No, I just I knew I thought we could
win the game. I even said that I think we
can win the game much less cover than seventeen points,
and it was my guarantee, and so I went up.
And I hate betting even if we're getting points, because
I don't like to win a bet than lose the game.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
But it is a consolation makes you feel a little better.
It's terrible.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I would trade I tell you what, I would trade
the game for the money, of course, for the thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Wow, I think any true would do.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Would you take a thousand dollars easy, Dallas Cowboys. They
can keep the loss, but you have to take a
thousand as an ugly game, buddy, they keep the loss
and you take the thousand bucks, or they get to
win and you just stay where you are.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
No, give me the money because they're going to lose. Anyway,
I have nothing to do with them when they're losing.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
No, that's not the point of the game. But if
I'm going to be real about it, we're not being
real because it's not a real thing. Oh it's not. If
this is not real scenario, give me a real thousand dollars. Oh,
and I'm I don't get to pick. No, I'd rather
than win.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
You would give up a thousand bucks for them to win.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
I mean, honestly, the thousand would be great, but the
joy I get when the Cowboys win it's.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Worth a thousand bucks. It's the whole week. I don't believe.
Speaker 6 (03:34):
I don't believe them. Not a regular season game. Really, No,
I don't believe.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yeah, I don't believe you either, But why should I
believe me?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Then?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah? Why do you do it?
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Because I just know I'd give a thousand bucks. I
give that money up in a heartbeat to have that
win is terrible, dude. A loss will ruin your day,
like ruin your week, your team. What if your team
loses if NFL, If NFL is your first love, Though,
it's okay to lose a game occasionally, all you just
getting playfu against against Arizona.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Oh, that's terrible. They lost to Dan Arizona's trying to
tank the year and they I.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Don't think they're trying to tank the year. I'm convinced
that the players and the coaches aren't right. That's correct, right,
It's it's like Major League movie, yes, where the owners
are so pissed off about this right now? Yes, I agree,
but I think you would take the thousand bucks because
regulas don't ask me the question.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Then we can and then we can make fun of
your head.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
We can do both, I think, just because regular games
don't matter as much in the NFL. They matter a lot,
but they don't matter as much.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I just know how I feel after a win, and
I'll take it.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Okay, I'll give you a thousand bucks right now. That
maybe that made me feel better, just kidding.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
They lose to the Patriots this week, are you guys next?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah, that's gonna be a tough game.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
We got to bet something, right dude.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
You now lost to the it's freaking Cardinals, so you
can lose anybody.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I know, I know, but but I mean our offensive
line was beat up. We had three missing o linemen.
I mean obviously digs out, so they bullied that corner.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
For sure. It's okay. We just gotta figure that it's
being out forever. Sucks.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It does, it does us, and we've got to figure out.
The Cowboys have to figure out how to score in
the red zone. Dicks, we got to figure it out.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
It's been four days because we were in Vegas and
we have it's a Tuesday when the show comes out.
The Dick's thing sucks for you, guys. I felt really
bad for you.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
We were flying, we were in the air, and I think,
did you find out?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
As soon as we landed?
Speaker 5 (05:17):
And then he texted me the picture because we didn't
sit together, the picture of what of the schefter's report.
Speaker 6 (05:22):
Like the breaking news breaking flying.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
There we're find in Vegas. Yeah, I saw it, and
it just sucks.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
He's so good, you know, the Cowboys always have something
go wrong. I mean it's everyone, every team. Yeah, but
he's superstar. He is. We definitely needed him for sure.
He's superstar.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
And then let's see what were the other big notes
NFL before we get into Jacob Pester in just a second.
Obviously Chubb didn't play.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
But they're saying that it's not a season ending. Well, no,
career now career ending. I mean yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
I says he's an hot dropped on him.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
No career, My god, I gotta go back. Biggest surprise
NFL wise, except for the Cowboys and Cardinals seventy seventy
to whatever. They're Broncos, the Broncos. Who cares seventy freaking points.
That's why old Kevin.
Speaker 6 (06:13):
For me to be the Texans smoking the Jags in Jacksonville.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
That was gonna be mine too. That was Eddie and
I's team in the eliminator. That was so they're done
in the eliminator. I still have two teams left because
I took balt I bought six teams. I don't want
to mention it because it's confusing, but I have I
took Baltimore and Kansas City as my two other ones,
so I have two left. But I think it wiped
out most of the league with the Cowboys losing, the
(06:38):
Jags losing. Yeah, who else lost? It was an underdog
or it was that. Those are two big ones.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
Those are Oh, the Colts speating the Ravens. Yeah, that's
a big one.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Wait Baltimore, Yeah, Rayvens lost hold on in overtime. I'm
you're right. So I thought you had another team that
you were talking. Maybe I did. Maybe I'm I'm mixed
up here. Oh no, what if I only have I
didn't look in the week. It was a week. It
was a weird week. Yeah, you just the NFL in
most weeks you do.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
But I'll reach you and he have my betting stats
for the week, and Kevin does all my analytics.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
I give him my phone. I got a job. Well.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I also wanted to be like transparent that I'm not
lying right, No, And I appreciate it eventually if I
want to.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Do one and that's fine.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
People to know that Kevin gets on my phone and
goes through it and then sends me all the information.
But what I'm gonna do first, though, is just smiles accountant.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yes, checking those smiles. One smile thing. Oh that's a frown.
Oh well, no, there were there were a lot of frowns,
a lot of frowns there. I picked Seattle on Kansas
City with my winners.
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Okay, so Seattle good.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
I lost Baltimore, Jacksonville, Jacksonville, EDDI.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
And I Jacksonville remind me too.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I want to talk about my almost Oh my god,
I gotta talk about that, do it now?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I mean, Kevin, that show that showed to you, and.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
You didn't show me what you told me about.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
So the thing is, like, I knew we were going
to Vegas, and so almost anytime we travel, I'm like, oh,
I got to put my bets in before we travel
because I never know if I can bet in that
state or not or whatever.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
So I put a nine game parlay real quick.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
It was the quickest I've ever put a parlay at
the airport here in Nashville for college football. Nine games.
Boom hit him. Bet'm bet, I'm bet, I'm ben, I'm
benam Boom. Let's go see what happens Saturday comes around.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
How much do you put on there?
Speaker 5 (08:21):
I put two dollars and ninety four cents to win
a thousand and like fifty or something.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
And so out in the nine games, how many games
do you think you probably hit?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Oh? I know what I hit.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
I hit eight out of the nine games, and the
one I missed was Colorado plus twenty one.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
And it was crazy because it was the first game.
It was the first game of the day, so so
it kind of kills it.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
So it kind of killed the whole thing.
Speaker 5 (08:47):
But I went back and I was like, I wonder
if I hit those last three games because I stopped
watching in the night games.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I go back.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Sure enough, I hit Texas, I hit Penn State, and
I hit what was the last one, Miami.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Maybe it just hits you like you're just get more
frustrated instead of excited. If it had been the last
game of the day that had been awesome, you have
to you have to decide if you're going to settle
up or there's.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
No cash out, right. So that was brutal Man's that sucks.
At least it was the first one. I don't I
mean that better or worse? Better?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yeah, because you don't get it all day worried about it.
You just happen to look back at it and go,
oh man, not okay, okay, one more okay.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That feeling's crazy though, when it's the last one or
the last two games, you're like, oh my gosh, I
have a chance at one thousand dollars. Okay. Here are
my betting stats this weekend. NC DOUBLEA.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Total wagered one thousand, five hundred and sixty one dollars
paid one thousand, three hundred and eighty five dollars total
negative one seventy six. My Arkansas bet saved my butt
or I lost it all at a bad week at
a bad week college NFL wagered one thousand, three hundred
and seventy five dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Crazy, dude, No.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
That's my favorite part about the auditing. Yeah, I'm like, wow, oh, okay.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I'll do mine after yours wager four dollars paid plus
one eighty three.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Okay, so I was plus eighty three NFL minus won
seventy six in c double a ten bucks, seven bucks
for the weekend at a boy, I'm not a loss
plus seven dollars now. Season total wagered eight thousand, four
hundred and seventy four dollars unbelievable weeks.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I can give you that number. That's wrong with you?
What's wrong with you? That's crazy, dude. Would I'd get divorced?
I would have got divorced five times. Might spend that
kind of money?
Speaker 3 (10:51):
So season total sixty five combined bets wagered eight thousand,
four hundred and seventy four dollars. Winnings plus four to
forty five.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Okay, looking up.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
If you want to know, because I had Kevin break
it down even more because usually I feel so confident
in college and just NFL is like just throwing those
darts at those balloons at the fair and you're like,
I don't know, is it going to hit one? Maybe NCAA.
Over the year so far, I'm down five to eighty
one NFL. I'm up one thy thirty nine. Wow, but
I'm up four hundred and forty five dollars on the
season total wagered eight thousand, four or seventy four dollars
(11:25):
sixty five combined bets.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
So many bets.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
That's crazy, dude, That's that's pretty cool.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
You have Kevin doing that, Like it's cool because I
don't think a lot of people know that. Like I
go down my list of like bets, I probably placed
that many bets. It's like way less money, but it's
all relative, sure, but yeah, like mine's probably placed five
hundred bets this weekend.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I just am only doing it for transparency reasons because
I hate when people are like bet this, bet that,
bet that, and then either they don't bet it or
they only talk about their their win. I mean, I
can show you all my losses and it, but that's boring.
But I just want to kind of tell you where
I sit. I like it, so, yeah, all right. Twenty
five Whistles presented by Draft Kings Sports Book, an official

sports betting partner of the NFL. Download the DraftKings app
used the code Bobby sports to get in on the action.
For example, we did not win our parlay this last week.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
No, we didn't. Western Kentucky. We hit that because they
lost by three. Did they go over time? I don't
think so.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Oklahoma I bet that one by itself too, that lost
by half point. I mean they won the game twenty
to six through fourteen and a half. Yeah, I film
my freaking remote to the TV. And then Florida minus
twenty eight versus Charlotte who didn'tve not had a football team,
and they didn't beat on that bad twenty two to seven.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Oh man, Yeah, so it wasn't It wasn't our best work.
I like to apologize. That's okay.
Speaker 6 (12:45):
I mean that Oklahoma was so close the Florida ones.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Come on, ye, I felt pretty good. I didn't pinky
promise that one. I felt pretty good about that one.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
He is running back at LSU full back in the NFL.
He's got a show on ESPN Radio on Sirius XM.
Go and search him out on Instagram. A big fan
Jacob Hester, Jacob, Hey, what's going on? Hey man, it's
tough to talk to somebody. I'm gona be honest with you.
I'm just gonna be honest with you. Like been a fan,
well sort of but mostly when you're a pro. But
(13:39):
it's a tough talk to LSU guy after this weekend. Man, Hey,
I didn't even wear ls show. Wore North Dakota State
just for you.
Speaker 7 (13:45):
I didn't want to rub it in so like I
wore a North Dakota State sweatshirt just so I didn't
rub it in.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
I appreciate it, and you know what you could. Let's
just we're here, let's just talk about it for a second.
That's a great game. Not gonna lie about it.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I don't know why we didn't let you guys score
at the end of the game and take a shot
at it at the end.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
What do you think about this year's LSU program.
Speaker 7 (14:04):
I don't know, Just like I don't know about any
of college football. I'm not sure exactly what's going on.
You have the Mississippi State like from two weeks ago,
you're like, Okay, they're back in it, and then you
have this week where they're at home and they let
Arkansas in the game time and time again.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
So yeah, you guys are going through Obviously, you had
a new coach. He's his second years this year, and
when you guys lost to Florida State last year at
the beginning of the year and everybody's melting down a
little bit, like.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
This sucks is over.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
You felt that switch halfway through the year with LSU,
where now it's like we're a national championship team, and
so do you feel like this is a year next year, Like,
how long does it take to build a program down there?
Do you guys feel like it needs to be one
or two years immediate now because you are a power
in the SEC.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
Yeah, it has to be immediate at a place like LSU.
I mean, when you look at the last three head coaches,
they've all won national championships and whatever. Nick Saban unlocked
in the early two thousands, and now it's like, okay,
you see what it can be. LSU has had some
ups and downs, but since the early two thousands, they've
been one of the standards of college football, second most
national championships to Alabama, and so like, you don't have
(15:10):
a grace period as the LSU had football coach, and
Brian Kelly certainly overachieved a year ago taking over the
roster that he did, but then all he did and
you know, this was heighten the expectation and so now
like just getting to Atlanta and the SEC championship game
is like the bare minimum, it feels like because you've
had so many coaches win national championships and so that's
(15:31):
why the expectation I think was so high this year
for LSU. It's because okay, well that was nice what
you did a year ago, but now I need you
to be back into the championship conversation.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
My last question about LSU but having Brian Kelly as
your coach because we had Bobby Petrino for a while,
and Bobby Petrino he won games, but he was not
a very likable person. And I mean he didn't try
to convince you to like him. He just was going
to go out and win games.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I feel like Brian Kelly is a bit the same
where if you don't have him on your team, you
don't really like him. He didn't seem like a super
likable guy.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
From tenthous feet up in the air, how do you
feel about Brian Kelly?
Speaker 2 (16:03):
You have you spent any time with him as a dude?
Speaker 7 (16:05):
Has there ever been like a Notre Dame coach that
anybody's liked that wasn't a Notre Dame fan, you know
what I mean? And so like, Brian Kelly's the Notre
Dame coach for a long time, the winningest coach in
that program's history. And I'll be honest with you, like
I just thought I wouldn't like him because nobody likes
the Notre Dame coach now Marcus Freeman's probably changed some
of that, but getting to know him and I have
(16:25):
had a chance to spend some time with him, and
I think you're getting a different version of what I
thought he was at Notre Dame. And I do think
he's the right guy to lead Lshuess program. I mean
his track record and then Lashoes track record, like we
just talked about, they feel like they're the perfect duo
of the perfect marriage. And make no mistake about it,
you are married together. I mean with his contract and
(16:46):
some of the numbers of his contract, you're going to
be together for like nine more years at minimum, and
so like it has to work. It's one of those
situations and it's going in the right direction. But again
it's like, Okay, every time you get excited about the team,
then you had a performance like you had on Saturday,
and look, you're always going to take a win. And Bobby,
you know, the LSU Arkansas series, just like I do,
(17:07):
records be damned, like it doesn't really matter. I know
for me, like the year we won a national championship,
we lost Arkansas in triple overtime. It's just that kind
of series, and so you'll always take a win certainly
in the SEC, but you'd like to see LSU just
continue to rise and not rise and install and then
rise again.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
We talked about and you mentioned unfair or fair expectations.
Now let's move that over to Colorado. As we saw
them get real, I mean boat raced by Oregon this week.
I think we all thought they would lose their best
players not playing Oregon's also just really freaking.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Good, I mean a little bit. All that success early
has created a whole new group of haters for Dion Sanders, Like,
what's a success for Colorado this year?
Speaker 7 (17:50):
I think getting to a Bowl game would be a
massive success. I mean, Bobby, they were a team that
won a singular game a year ago. They were bad,
I mean, they were epically bad. And then you and
you win a game against the TCU, and then you
beat in Nebraska, and then you beat a rival.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Like.
Speaker 7 (18:05):
They've got three wins, right, it's triple what they had
just a year ago. And if they get to a
seven and five record, that has to be a massive
success considering everything that you did on this roster, which
is basically a brand new team, and then where they
were a year ago. The buy in is there, Like
the cheapest ticket to get into the Colorado State game
was like four hundred and seventeen bucks to get into
(18:27):
a PAC twelve versus Mountain West game. Right, So the
buzz is there. We saw game Day. They've got every star,
They've got Lil Wayne, They've got the Rock. The Rock
played for Miami. Why are you at Colorado? Doesn't matter?
He's there, right, And so they're doing a lot of
good things for that program right now. And I think
that the expectation got blown out of the water because
of where they started, how they started going against a
(18:49):
team in TCU that played for a national championship. But
you have to be a realistic viewer, and I think
realistically they have a chance to make a Bowl game,
which is a really nice season considering where you or
a year ago.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
And I would say the same thing.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
But I think now, if they don't win nine or
ten games, you're gonna have a lot of uneducated people
hating very loudly, going I told you so, but you
told us what.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
You just don't like Deon Sanders.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
I mean that's how I feel that that expectation has
been so unfairly said over there.
Speaker 7 (19:18):
That makes no sense to me, like, why do you
not like somebody because they're doing it differently?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Like that just does not make sense to me.
Speaker 7 (19:25):
Like, he has got a way that he wants to
build this program and you had to hit reset. When
you watch that team a year ago, they were never
going to be competitive and it's a harsh reality. But
he had to go in there hit reset. He brought
in better players. They're only going to continue now if
he stays there for three or four years. I think
they really truly can build something there. But that's the
way that he had to do it in his eyes.
(19:46):
It's like when you look at that and then you
look at like Saya Dabosweeney at Clemson, Well he doesn't
take players through the transfer portal.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
He doesn't like nil. Well, how's that working out for them?
Right now?
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Clemson is two and two and Clemson is one of
the pillars of college football over the last decade? Are
they being left behind right now? Feels like they're at
the train station. The train's moving and they're staying right
there on the platform and everybody else is kind of
on that ride going to the future of college football.
And so like there's a couple of different ways you
can do it, but don't hate on someone, hate on
(20:16):
a coach, hate on a team because they're doing it
differently than you've seen it done before.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
College football is changing. I mean we're on a path
like we've never seen before.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
Twenty twenty four is going to be completely different than
anything we've ever seen in college football.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
So yes, you have to do a different way.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Don't hate on somebody because they're not doing it the
way you like it or the way it's been done before.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
You're talking about the relationship that you have with a
head coach for X amount of years when you pay
them a bunch of money.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I think about Jimbo Fisher and I think, I mean.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
That Miami game that Miami A and M game was not,
but A and M just always seems to let A
and M fans down, I feel. But Jimbo Fisher, when
is it going to get to the point where they
feel like they can actually buy that contract out? And
is that a school Like if you were Dion Sanders
would just love to go to Texas A and.
Speaker 7 (21:01):
M right, I mean, doesn't Dionne in the SEC like
the place like Florida A and M just feeling incredibly
scary to the rest of the SEC fan bases.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
And look, I love Jimbo Fisher.
Speaker 7 (21:11):
Jimbo Fisher was my offensive coordinator for three years at LSU.
Like I'm able to sit here and do shows like
this because Jimbo Fisher trusted me to play running back,
and so it does pay me to see them continue
to have games like they had against Miami. But Bobby,
the wild thing is, I cannot tell you. If my
life depended on why can A and m not be successful?
I could not give you an answer. I'd be six
feet under and I'd be having dirt thrown on top
(21:33):
of me because I don't know why they're not good.
They haven't won a national championship since nineteen thirty nine.
Elvis Presley was in diapers the last time they won
a national championship. They haven't won a conference championship since
nineteen ninety eight. They've only won one, I believe in
that ninety eight since ninety four, like one conference championship
(21:54):
since nineteen ninety four. Look, oil's not new, and they've
got all the oil money, they have, all the resource,
they have, all the buy in, the desire, the stadium,
the state of Texas, to recruit to the big national
championship winning coach. But I cannot tell you why they
can't be successful. It blows my mind. They have everything
that you possibly need to be great and one national
(22:16):
championship since nineteen thirty nine, one conference championship in a
couple of decades. That to me, it just doesn't make sense.
And I do not have an answer for you.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Well, and also, you know he's won a national championship
at a what we will say, lesser school, but at
a well we'll say a conference that isn't as difficult
with it.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Way more resources at A and M yes than Florida State.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
With you said that, go, I just I don't want
to get beat dev so I'll let you say that.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
So, well, what's happening here with the dynamic with Patrino
as the offensive coordinator but Jimbo Fisher as the head coach,
And you know, Jimbo is saying I'm gonna call the
plays but Patrino like that's his strength, Like what what
do you think is the dynamic over there?
Speaker 7 (22:50):
So far?
Speaker 4 (22:51):
So so far, it's it's been okay.
Speaker 7 (22:54):
And I know in the off season we were kind
of wanting and a lot of people were hoping we'd
see an MMA fight breakout on the sideline between those
two huge personalities. But the offense has actually been really good.
The game they lost against Miami, that was because the
defense didn't show up there. I mean, you just watched
this last game against Auburn. Like Texas A and M
is moving the ball, they're scoring points. They're actually catching
(23:15):
up to today's offenses in college football, and so so
far that's actually worked out pretty well. The question I
had was Bobby Petrino in Missouri State, they were like
fifty fifth I think in total offense at the FCS level.
I didn't really know if his schemes were going to
work in today's college football. But whatever they've done to
blend it together, that part of it has actually worked.
(23:36):
And so we'll see if Texas A and M. They've
got really the thick of their SEC schedule coming up,
they got to play Alabama, they got to play Tennessee
South Carolina. We'll find out more about the Aggies. But
again they've already got that loss. They've still got Alabama,
they've still got Tennessee LSU still left on their schedule,
Old miss and so I don't know why they can't
put it all together. It feels like at least once
(23:57):
they would, but it hasn't happened yet.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Insulted in my face. They play Arkansas next week and
he never once mention them. You know, so I'll just
accept the insult. Yeah, you got us twice, You got
me twice in like three days. Jacob Alabama. They play
a Southern Florida and it doesn't look great. They play
a good Old they win, by the way, but they
play a good Old Miss tam team and it looks
pretty good. What is your take on Alabama where they
(24:20):
are in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 7 (24:22):
I think Alabama is good with a chance to be great,
but not be elite. I think when you look at
who they have, they've got some players up front. Defensive
line is really really good. Offensive line big question marks.
Playmakers on the outside. As far as receivers, big question marks.
They're still figuring out who the quarterback is. Jaylen Milroe
(24:42):
had nice moments against Old Miss, but he also had
a moment where he goes an interception in a coverage
that you can just not throw that football like that
is a scheme in which he should know he's played
enough football to know that, and so still inconsistency at
the quarterback position, and Alabama's gonna win their games. But
I do not think this is a championship Alabama team.
And I know every time we say that, they prove
(25:03):
us wrong. I mean, you can even go back to
the stats. The last time Nick Saban had a double
digit home loss was two thousand and three while he
was a head coach at LSU. Well, they went and
won a national title that year at LSU. Last time
they weren't ranking the top ten in the AP twenty fifteen,
they went and won a national championship that year. So
they've proven us wrong time and time again. But Bobby,
(25:23):
this roster doesn't look like a national championship roster. I
think again, they can win ten games, they can go
to a New Year six Bowl game, but they still
have games on their schedule that they've got to go
out there and it's going to be similar talent and
can they make the place to win When you look
at some of the quarterback matchups down the road, like
when they play LSU. LSU Jayden Daniels had a really
good game in that matchup a year ago. Is your
(25:46):
quarterback going to be able to make the plays to
win a game like that. So it's not it feels
disrespectful because Alabama is the standard of college football. But
right now they can be a good team, possibly great,
but I do not see an elite roster right now.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
How do you feel physically after playing, obviously at the
highest level in college one national championship, played in the NFL
for those years, do you have nagging injuries or because
you probably still could have played when you quit, right
or did you get out because you didn't want to
have that happen in your whole life?
Speaker 7 (26:14):
Well, yeah, it's a great question. And so I was
six years in the NFL playing the fullback position, and
I played running back at LSU. But hey, you get
drafted to the NFL, you do exactly what they want
you to do, so you can have a career there.
And it was something there was a lot of collisions,
and so, yeah, you deal with some stuff and some
of it's unfortunate. And I was actually so I was
(26:35):
going into year number seven. I just finished up. I
had four and a half years in San Diego, a
year and a half with Denver, and then the hometown
Saints call and I grew up a huge Saints fan.
Bobby Abert shout out to the Cajun Cannon, and I
was like, Okay, if there's any team I'm going to
try to keep playing, it's going to be the Saints.
But I had this moment and I moved my family.
(26:55):
So I now have five kids, but I had three
at the time, and we're moving across the country, moving
from California to Colorado back to Louisiana. And then you
get this call to go play for the New Orleans Saints.
And I had this moment, Bobby, it's hard to when
they called me to give me the contract to go
to training camp, I had this feeling in my gut
that was not a good feeling. It wasn't like an
excited feeling. It was like, hey, Bud, you were done.
(27:18):
And if you're not fully into the NFL, if you're
not one hundred percent in, you don't need to be
out there because you're not going to farewell. And so
I had that moment of hey, go ahead, and I
already had some media things lined up. It's like, this
is time to start your next career. And so, yeah,
I deal with stuff every single day as far as injuries.
But I think I got out at the right time
because if I'd have played one more year, I really don't.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Know where my body would have been.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
And again, I didn't want to move my family yet
again for a third time in three years.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Last question I have for you here, but whenever you
stop playing football and you've been celebrated for that your
entire life youth to NFL, like, did you have a
brief period where you're like, I don't even know who
I am right now because I've only done this one thing.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
Absolutely and again, like I already knew that I wanted
to get into sports media. I had done some radio
while I was playing in San Diego, and I even.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Kind of had a path to what I wanted to do.
Speaker 7 (28:11):
But you do feel lost, And I feel so bad
for my NFL brethren that have no path, they don't
know what they want to do. I mean, it's every
every piece of you has to be fully bought in
to being an NFL player in high school and college,
and certainly once you get to the NFL and it
is your entire life, it consumes you because if it doesn't,
you're not going to make it. And then all of
(28:31):
a sudden one day they tell you, hey, you're done.
You're not gonna be able to play anymore. And you
created this competitive nature that you have, and that's really
the thing that you try to find. Where do I
put this? How am I competitive in everyday life? Because
I've always competed every single day of my life to
keep my job, to be the best at my job.
Speaker 4 (28:48):
And I still this to this day.
Speaker 7 (28:49):
I've been retired for like eight years, and I want
to be competitive in something. You tried to do it
in your job, and you can to some extent, But
it's like, do I need to go play like co
Ed over thirty soft Farers because I really need to
get this competitive nature out.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
That's probably the hardest part is where do I place that?
Speaker 7 (29:06):
And again, like you said, I've done this every day
of my life to get ready for this point. It's
all I've really ever done. It's an elite skill set,
But now what do I do? And I wish the
NFLPA It's a whole different conversation, but I wish they
did a little bit more to help players out once
they're done playing.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
I'm a big fan of you guys, you and T
Bow both, so let me say this, and we mentioned

Speaker 2 (29:47):
But it is what it is, and we'll move on
in next week.
Speaker 7 (29:50):

It is times to play his name.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
For those watching right now, we are multi multitasking. I'm
eating lunch, I'm having a makeup put on me because
I'm about to go do an interview with Dolly.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
We're doing the sports show.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
So if you're watching this on the feed right now,
I apologize all right, entertaining.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Kevin, You're up number one.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Okay. I know that the loss on Saturday to Oregon,
But I was saying about Dean Sanders being a head
coach former player, and if you think of somebody else
I can come in there change a program NFL or college.
Who do you think could do that and what program
would it be with?
Speaker 3 (31:37):
I mean, part of the Dion effect is he's so outspoken,
so not everybody has to be as outspoken. But part
of the reason that he's so has always been successful.
One is that he can back it up. It is
obviously one of the best ever, but that he tells
like he's a scene himself. And they're also going to
lose more games, so you know, I don't think there
(31:58):
should be any guilt about them oozing. But I think
Peyton Manning is somebody that would come into like a
Tennessee Oh that'd be cool and just demand so much
respecting people would want to play for him. I mean
that's what Dion does, right, demands respect through his way,
like being one of the greatest of all time and
being like.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
A Super Players coach.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
But I think Peyton Manning, I don't know if he'd
be a Super Players coach or not, but I think
Peyton Manning would come in and be somebody that people
would listen to you right away. And he's so cerebral
as opposed to someone like a Tom Brady who's a
big winner.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
But I don't know that he'd be a good coach
because I don't think. I don't think of Tom Brady
is like an x as an O's guy.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
I think a Peyton Manning is. He's an offensive coordinator.
He's his own offensive coordinator. He's like obsessed with film
and tape.
Speaker 6 (32:37):
I think, yeah, what if Brady had that. I'm definitely
a friend he got offended.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
We don't know that side of Brady though. You know,
like I've never heard him.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Talk football, and I've never heard him talk thank you, Lauren.
I've never heard him talk or people talk about how
obsessed he is with football granularly. It's always he trains,
he already works out, he motivates his guys.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
He kisses his son on the lips.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Okay, But Peyton Manning is that guy who is notebook
after notebook obsessed with film because.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
We've seen him and his brother like just talk football
and dissect.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
It, and we've heard people talk about them in that way,
and you have to be obsessed to be at a highlight.
But I would say Peyton Manning way more than Brady.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
What Like, we didn't know Romo was so like knowledgeable.
Speaker 5 (33:23):
I mean, I knew he was like a good decent quarterback,
but until he was in the booth, that's when we're like, Wow,
this guy really knows football.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
Yeah, Brady will be there next year, so maybe we'll
find out. This is not a Brady defense.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
I know.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
I'm just saying, God, dang, all right, what else ask
me a question?
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Hates my answer? God?
Speaker 6 (33:42):
After a low scoring battle in South Bend the other night,
did you leave the Notre Dame Ohio State game thinking
like these are two really good teams or two average
teams just kind of going at it.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
I always feel like Notre Dame is an average team
and they always get the benefit of the doubt if
they're playing other average teams that both teams are great
because everybody just wants Notre Dame to be good. But
I and I always feel like Ohio States Alps. I
always fel like they're really good even if they're not.
Give them the benefit of the doubt because they have
been really good over the years. But when I was
watching the game, I thought they were both fine and
sometimes superpowered match Superpower and equals and zero Row. Yeah,
(34:14):
but I didn't feel like this was Iron Man versus
Captain America. I felt like it was more like ant Man,
oh versus who's a flash se.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Yeah, like one of the other b ones, like still good,
you can probably still save a life, blue beetle. Yeah,
but it ain't one of the mains, you know. Yeah,
they're both good teams.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Do I think either one of them will win the
national championships? The show think Ohio State possibly, I don't.
I don't think Notre Dame will, though after watching them
three games so far this year, they're a lot better
than I say they were. I mean, when Brian Kelly
was the coach, they got to the playoff, but generally
they don't. They kind they're like the cowboys, whoa, whoa, WHOA,
what does that mean? All due respect America's team? Okay,
(34:58):
fair enough, all right?
Speaker 6 (34:59):
Next going to the NFL after starting zero and three
and taking a seventy to twenty beat down in Miami
on Sunday. Do you think Sean Payton's regretting taking that
job in Denver?
Speaker 3 (35:09):
I would have said no last week, and I don't
know if he's regretting it. Maybe he regrets that he
can't forge more of a relationship with his quarterback because
I don't feel like they're on the same page at all,
him and Russell Wilson. I don't feel like again, I
could see Russell Wilson getting benched even being owed all
that money. So I don't know if he regrets it,
(35:31):
but I think he probably regrets saying that the last
coaching job before him was the worst coaching job of
all time.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Yikes hmm.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
I think that's probably something he wish he wouldn't have said.
But Shanay's always one a guy who says it.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
Right or wrong.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
He just says it, and you gotta respect that. That's
seventy to twenty. That was a bad one man, and
that Posty scored eight touchdowns between moster and a chain.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah in fantasy some happy people. I had eight tan
on my bench. That's right. But I'm sure a lot
of people.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
Yeah, but I had him on my rosterverybody trying to
pickhim up now, but already I have a Yeah, he
had fifty two points on the bench.
Speaker 6 (36:04):
That's rough.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
That's rough, all right?
Speaker 6 (36:05):
Last one here justin fields, all time low in Chicago.
Do you think he'll make it through the season as
a starter.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
I'm so shocked at how bad they are, especially because
they got a lot better midway through the end part
of last year, and they're supposed to be a like
their head coach, Eberfless is a defensive coach. Their defense sucks.
But also justin fields last year, the big breakthrough was
(36:34):
whenever he just started running on purpose, because he would,
they would say, well, he can't stand in the pocket
one two, Then he runs. Finally, they started designing a
lot of run plays for him and that helped them
and they started to win more and we saw the
Bears win some games at the end of last year.
Is this just happening again? Because now he has more
weapons around him too. He's got a number one receiver.
(36:58):
I have to still think that the Bears are gonna
win some games. I don't know how because they look awful, bad,
like they look like the worst team in the NFL.
But I just saw the same team basically last year
win a bunch of games. So I'm still gonna stick
with them and say they're going to be a five
hundred team.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
That's tough. It's tough, m hm.
Speaker 5 (37:20):
And they're gonna keep Feels as their starter the whole season.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Yeah, yeah, I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (37:24):
I mean, if they were to lose with if they're
getting close towards the end, Fields is their starter, they
have a chance the number one, number two pick.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I have no doubt Fields. Well, I have doubt.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
Fields probably have some sort of mystery injury or they'll
take them out of something so they can keep losing
and get that pick and then trade Fields.
Speaker 6 (37:42):
Game of the Week this week versus Broncos.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Who's watching that one? We all will, I guess I'll entertainment.
We'll watch it. We love any football. But god, Okay,
that's the title tittle, And.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
I do want to bring this up before we end
the show. We went to Las Vegas. All four of
us were playing craps together. Mike he make some money boys. Well,
Mike d could have stayed, but he wanted to get
back and have a line.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
He was a smart guy. Yeah, he's a smart one.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Our episode with UNLV is up, so you can watch that.
But we had a little chance. Let's make some money.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
The boys.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
Let's make some money boys. Let's make some money boys.
Let's make some money boys. So we go to the
crafts table and I've been working. We'll meet you guys
at the crash table. And Eddie was not playing but standing.
At first it was a packed table.
Speaker 3 (38:39):
And really for me, I just wedged my way in there.
Yeah he did, but I think there were four of us.
So I'm gonna sit out for a little bit. And
Kevin and Reed had never played craps before, so I said, okay,
I want to. This is the fundamental way to play craps.
We're just going to show you the very first thing.
You roll the dice, that's your point. You try to
hit the point. That's how you went. But if you're
all seven or let to win. So we started slell
(39:01):
a lot of butts. Well, the first thing you got
to know, though, is what that point is right right?
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Like?
Speaker 2 (39:06):
What that so like I too landed. Oh yeah, we
didn't tell you about that. Yeah, that when you lose,
you lose.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
So we're playing, and we played I don't know, ten
fifteen minutes, and I felt like you guys were starting
to get the hang of it a little bit, although
also felt like Reid had a little bit to drink,
was just throwing money out.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
He did even care if I get lost her lot.
He was just here's money. And so.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
We have our chips, and this lady who's never played
Crafts before, gets the dice. She's wearing a Burberry sweatshirt
and she starts to throw, and she threw for forty
one minutes on one roll. And I didn't want to
say it while we were playing, because you never want
to comment on somebody's throwing hot you believe in the jinks,
it's just that, I fully there's no reason to mess
(39:52):
with it, even if I don't believe in it.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Am I gonna screw with it? No? You believe in
it though, Nope, sure don't. But I'm not gonna screw
with it. She threw for forty one minutes, and Eddie
said back, I can never got intil she was done,
Like he let such a hot roll.
Speaker 6 (40:03):
Yeah, oh yeah, you were in.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Uh, I missed all of her role.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
So Reid and Kevin and myself were doing pretty good
when it's some money and Reid's going, this is the
easiest game ever.
Speaker 6 (40:14):
Oh boy, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
He never played before, but he's like, this is the
easiest game we ever played. How do we not play
this more? All you do is win?
Speaker 6 (40:20):
Yes, yea.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
And what I wanted to say was that was such
a rare treat to have someone roll that long in
that strong, and it wasn't just her, there were a
few roles. It never left the side of that table
until we left that Guys, if I go to Veggas
ten times, that might happen once. And that was your
intro in.
Speaker 6 (40:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:39):
And so between Reid going why don't we play more
of this? It's all you do is win. This is
the easiest game ever, then Eddie not getting in until
seventy percent of the winning was done, and Kevin running
fullback for me because I'm trying to play the game. Listen.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
I love meeting people listening to the show, but I'm
literally put throwing money out there and some dude, I
don't know if he's drunk or not. It keeps trying
to come around the table and take a picture, like
they don't want picture at the table anyway, Vegas doesn't
want you to take picture at the table.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
You can step back. But we're in the middle of this.
One's only for forty minutes.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
He's like, hey, I want to get a picture, and
Kevin's blocking for me and blocking for me, and I'm thowing.
I'm and I'm like when the role ends, happy too.
But I didn't say, and she rolled for forty one minutes.
I never took a pictures of that.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
I think he left eventually.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
But it was a really fun night. We made a
bunch of money and is a good trip.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
We made some money. Boys.
Speaker 3 (41:40):
I hated the Arkansas loss, butt other than that, Like
read how much did you make on that?
Speaker 2 (41:46):
Just that session?
Speaker 8 (41:47):
Just that session, I put down two hundred dollars and
I left with like seven forty. So you know, so easy, guys.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
That it does seem easy through.
Speaker 5 (41:59):
That, you know, we all went our own ways and
we said like, good night, we're going to bed bones
and I went up the elevator.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
We're going to bed right these two went back to
the table.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
Guys, gambled more. Yeah, okay, let me come back to that. Yes, Eddie,
how much did you make?
Speaker 5 (42:09):
I doubled my mom, I put two hundred down. I
think I walked out of there with one hundred and
fifteen and sixty, like thirty fifty ors, So yeah, yeah, totally.
Speaker 6 (42:16):
Yeah, Kevin, at that table, I made to eighty.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
And what did you start with?
Speaker 6 (42:20):
So I started the weekend four hundred, No, not the weekend,
just the table, just one twenty I believe something like that.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Over one twenty and you left with three eighty right,
good good, yahd role Did that save your weekend?
Speaker 6 (42:32):
Yes? I went from losing three hundred dollars to breaking even.
Speaker 2 (42:35):
Basically, did that save your weekend?
Speaker 8 (42:37):
Oh yeah, I ended up being up like three or
four hundred dollars, so not counting your reimbursement.
Speaker 3 (42:44):
Oh yeah, Kevin told me you'd lost some money, and
so I just gave it.
Speaker 6 (42:48):
That's very record time. What this guy lost money? Record time?
Speaker 2 (42:53):
I heard us a quick one fifty.
Speaker 4 (42:55):
It was a quick one.
Speaker 6 (42:56):
I was four minutes, four minutes.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
And Redo was grinding working the whole time too, on
the way he was, and I was like, hey, look,
you guys do have to learn your lesson in gambling.
But yeah, so I give him a hundred and fifty
bucks to recoup his gambling.
Speaker 8 (43:08):
But yeah, I'm the worst when it comes to like
knowing if I have like ten minutes to gamble. I
didn't know if I was going to get to do anymore.
So then I'm just like, you're rush gambling. Yeah, rush,
that's basically yeah, that's what it was.
Speaker 2 (43:18):
What were you playing?
Speaker 6 (43:19):
Really?
Speaker 2 (43:20):
Oh yeah, I can't. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
I started with five hundred and I left with nineteen seventy.
Speaker 2 (43:28):
Jez Jesus, that's unbelievable. Yeah, almost two thousand.
Speaker 6 (43:33):
Imagine if you want anything on my roles.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
There's only one person the whole time that crapped out immediately.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
It was Kevin. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (43:39):
I was like, you know what, I'm loading up. We're
going kick off, Kevin, I'm loading up. I felt crapped out.
Speaker 6 (43:44):
Yeah, because you feel great? Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:47):
I was like, I just four hundred bucks one roll
right there, dude.
Speaker 3 (43:49):
But it was a lot of fun, and that was
not how it usually happens, guys.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Just so you know, yes, I remember that I had.
Speaker 8 (43:57):
A dream that night, no joke, I'm not even lying.
I had a dream that night that I was at
the table.
Speaker 4 (44:02):
I was at the crabs table.
Speaker 8 (44:03):
You know, everybody's chanting my.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
Name, re you dreamed that, I dreamed that. What on
Earth Motion? He's hooked? So did what did you do
when you went back and gambled after we just did
one more, one more round?
Speaker 6 (44:19):
I think you won another like fifty bucks, didn't you? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Yeah, it was more. It was more at first and then.
Speaker 5 (44:26):
It all starts with one more, one more, but it
was fifty bucks more.
Speaker 2 (44:29):
Yeah. So hey, the week of our guarantees for this week?
Because I read I read wasn't on in the studio earlier.
So have we done our the recap?
Speaker 4 (44:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Yeah, no, we did the recap, But have we done
our ours for this week?
Speaker 6 (44:39):
Not for the coming week?
Speaker 3 (44:39):
And we should do that real quick. That we've tried
to end the show for like twenty minutes, but we
should do that. So oh man, so read, did you
hit yours last week?
Speaker 2 (44:48):
I did? Okay, you hit yours? I hit what we
talked about that. Okay, do you guys have your guarantees
this week? Let me pull mine up.
Speaker 3 (44:54):
That means you just gonna pull up thet I know,
I just got I just got to make sure.
Speaker 2 (44:58):
Okay, well, I'm gonna I'll go first. Good, mine's a
little something called Arkansas. Again. The fact that you guys
are all dead. I told you last.
Speaker 3 (45:05):
Week that the LSU game was just easy. Smiles count
counter smiles. Yeah, so I'm going My mine is Arkansas
plus six and a half. And it says Arkansas at home,
but they're not really. It's a Texas A and M.
It's the Dallas game in Jerry's world, so it's not
really a home game. They're just considered the home team.
(45:27):
But Arkansas plus six and a half, that's it. I done, Kevin.
Speaker 6 (45:34):
I'm gonna go with Georgia at Auburn minus fourteen and
a half.
Speaker 2 (45:39):
Wow, that's all I know.
Speaker 6 (45:43):
That's how I'm like. Really because Auburn, I mean Auburn
three and one, but they're not good.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
Eddie, look, I think I believe, Oh my god, I believe.
Are you going?
Speaker 5 (45:53):
I believe the Razorbacks. Oh okay, they're easy. Let me finish.
The Razorbacks are going to warm up that stadium for
the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (46:04):
Patriots.
Speaker 5 (46:05):
And I have a theory. Guys, we knew we were
going to lose that game. Because this next one was
gonna be really important. We're gonna have New England in
Jerry's world. They're going to kill the Patriots. They're at
seven right now. Take them Dallas Cowboys minus seven. That'll
give you some smile.
Speaker 3 (46:22):
But seven points is a lot in the NFL, unless
you're the Dolphins or.
Speaker 2 (46:26):
The Cowboys versus the Patriots.
Speaker 6 (46:27):
They almost beat the Dolphins.
Speaker 4 (46:29):
Reid, I'm gonna go Colts minus two.
Speaker 3 (46:34):
Read always picks like a weird team, but but he
hits them.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
Have you I've hit one the last one? Okay, so
what so what is it? Red Colts minus yeah? Playing
in Indianapolis versus the Rams.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
Yeah yeah, he goes, Yeah, how much time we got?
Speaker 2 (46:54):
How much you need? I got?
Speaker 5 (46:55):
I got a funny story for for listeners. I want
to know more about Reid. So we were on the
way to the airport and we were talking about road
rage for some reason involved whatever, and Read comes up
with the best story to really explain what kind of
person this guy is. He said, one time, one time,
this guy cut me off, and.
Speaker 2 (47:13):
He said to me, he said, and I rolled down
the window and I yelled, be patient, man, and.
Speaker 5 (47:20):
The guy like sped up got behind me, followed me
for like five minutes.
Speaker 2 (47:24):
Everywhere I went.
Speaker 5 (47:25):
I'm like, oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, he's gonna
kill me. Finally, we were at a stop sign. The
guy got out of his truck said what did you say?
He said, I said, be patient? Man, No you didn't.
You told me bad words. And he's like, no, man,
I swear I said be patient. And the guy goes, oh, okay,
got back to this truck and left, And I'm like,
who says who rolls the window down upset and says
(47:48):
be patient?
Speaker 2 (47:49):
Man. It's there when a guy walks up to your
truck asking what you said. Yeah, that's a true story,
though I love it. I went home and told my wife.
I'm like, she's like, what's read like. I'm like, let
me tell you innocent. Yes, gambling it it's sweet. But
anytime we hear about you gambling you win. You don't
do it a lot.
Speaker 6 (48:09):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
But the time that he got on and bet college
basketball and went ape Crap and just won every game.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
That's why you love him.
Speaker 3 (48:18):
Maybe it's you, bro, Maybe you're just such a good
kind spirit that it just follows you.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
Maybe it is Maybe just be patient, be patient man.
Speaker 3 (48:26):
All right, you guys follow us at twenty five whistles.
Matt Ryan is not going to leave ESPN and go

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Play fullback in the NFL. That's crazy. So but we'll
talk about college football and little bit with him.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Uh, that's what's up. You know what a night Saturday.
It was for a bunch of reasons. The Arkansas game
is tough. I just want to get out of system
and just say there's tough with loss by three, and
it's made me sick. But do you guys know your guarantees,
your problem your locks of the week?
Speaker 5 (01:14):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Let me get my Yeah you know I have mine, Kevin,
go ahead.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
Mine was Washington minus twenty one? How they do They
won by twenty seven?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
So you're good?
Speaker 3 (01:23):
We good?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Okay, So no money owed there? Mine?
Speaker 6 (01:27):
Yours was Arkansas plus seventeen and a half.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Uh oh no, I won? Oh plus seventeen and a half. Yeah, yeah,
yeah good.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
I haven't missed a guarantee yet. Okay, okay, hey you relax.
We've been doing this for two weeks.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Hey, what was yours?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Mine? What was Jacksonville? Right? Jacksonville?
Speaker 6 (01:42):
No, you had Titans?
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Oh it's even worse. Oh god, those gether are both terrible? Yeah?
What do I owe? Ten bucks?
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Keep it on fire?
Speaker 6 (01:50):
What was reads Reads minus six and a half? Miami easy?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Oh man? Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
They have to running back score like forty or fifty
points in fantasy between a chain and most is crazy.
That's the lack of the year. Okay, So Eddie is
the only one who host ten bucks this week? Bucks,
I'm hey, I'm a hundred.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
There you are.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
We lost it sucked. I did bet one thousand dollars
on them to cover though. Oh dude, that was just
last minute for you. Now did that? How did that happen?
I told you guys, that's free money, but I don't
ever listen to that word pretty smiles.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
I'm just talking about my own selfie.
Speaker 6 (02:27):
But you were so confident that it was just.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Like No, I just I knew I thought we could
win the game. I even said that I think we
can win the game much less cover than seventeen points,
and it was my guarantee, and so I went up.
And I hate betting even if we're getting points, because
I don't like to win a bet than lose the game.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
But it is a consolation makes you feel a little better.
It's terrible.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I would trade I tell you what, I would trade
the game for the money, of course, for the thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Wow, I think any true would do.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Would you take a thousand dollars easy, Dallas Cowboys. They
can keep the loss, but you have to take a
thousand as an ugly game, buddy, they keep the loss
and you take the thousand bucks, or they get to
win and you just stay where you are.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
No, give me the money because they're going to lose. Anyway,
I have nothing to do with them when they're losing.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
No, that's not the point of the game. But if
I'm going to be real about it, we're not being
real because it's not a real thing. Oh it's not. If
this is not real scenario, give me a real thousand dollars. Oh,
and I'm I don't get to pick. No, I'd rather
than win.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
You would give up a thousand bucks for them to win.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
I mean, honestly, the thousand would be great, but the
joy I get when the Cowboys win it's.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Worth a thousand bucks. It's the whole week. I don't believe.
Speaker 6 (03:34):
I don't believe them. Not a regular season game. Really, No,
I don't believe.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yeah, I don't believe you either, But why should I
believe me?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Then?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah? Why do you do it?
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Because I just know I'd give a thousand bucks. I
give that money up in a heartbeat to have that
win is terrible, dude. A loss will ruin your day,
like ruin your week, your team. What if your team
loses if NFL, If NFL is your first love, Though,
it's okay to lose a game occasionally, all you just
getting playfu against against Arizona.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Oh, that's terrible. They lost to Dan Arizona's trying to
tank the year and they I.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Don't think they're trying to tank the year. I'm convinced
that the players and the coaches aren't right. That's correct, right,
It's it's like Major League movie, yes, where the owners
are so pissed off about this right now? Yes, I agree,
but I think you would take the thousand bucks because
regulas don't ask me the question.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Then we can and then we can make fun of
your head.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
We can do both, I think, just because regular games
don't matter as much in the NFL. They matter a lot,
but they don't matter as much.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I just know how I feel after a win, and
I'll take it.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Okay, I'll give you a thousand bucks right now. That
maybe that made me feel better, just kidding.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
They lose to the Patriots this week, are you guys next?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah, that's gonna be a tough game.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
We got to bet something, right dude.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
You now lost to the it's freaking Cardinals, so you
can lose anybody.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I know, I know, but but I mean our offensive
line was beat up. We had three missing o linemen.
I mean obviously digs out, so they bullied that corner.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
For sure. It's okay. We just gotta figure that it's
being out forever. Sucks.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It does, it does us, and we've got to figure out.
The Cowboys have to figure out how to score in
the red zone. Dicks, we got to figure it out.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
It's been four days because we were in Vegas and
we have it's a Tuesday when the show comes out.
The Dick's thing sucks for you, guys. I felt really
bad for you.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
We were flying, we were in the air, and I think,
did you find out?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
As soon as we landed?
Speaker 5 (05:17):
And then he texted me the picture because we didn't
sit together, the picture of what of the schefter's report.
Speaker 6 (05:22):
Like the breaking news breaking flying.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
There we're find in Vegas. Yeah, I saw it, and
it just sucks.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
He's so good, you know, the Cowboys always have something
go wrong. I mean it's everyone, every team. Yeah, but
he's superstar. He is. We definitely needed him for sure.
He's superstar.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
And then let's see what were the other big notes
NFL before we get into Jacob Pester in just a second.
Obviously Chubb didn't play.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
But they're saying that it's not a season ending. Well, no,
career now career ending. I mean yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
I says he's an hot dropped on him.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
No career, My god, I gotta go back. Biggest surprise
NFL wise, except for the Cowboys and Cardinals seventy seventy
to whatever. They're Broncos, the Broncos. Who cares seventy freaking points.
That's why old Kevin.
Speaker 6 (06:13):
For me to be the Texans smoking the Jags in Jacksonville.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
That was gonna be mine too. That was Eddie and
I's team in the eliminator. That was so they're done
in the eliminator. I still have two teams left because
I took balt I bought six teams. I don't want
to mention it because it's confusing, but I have I
took Baltimore and Kansas City as my two other ones,
so I have two left. But I think it wiped
out most of the league with the Cowboys losing, the
(06:38):
Jags losing. Yeah, who else lost? It was an underdog
or it was that. Those are two big ones.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
Those are Oh, the Colts speating the Ravens. Yeah, that's
a big one.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Wait Baltimore, Yeah, Rayvens lost hold on in overtime. I'm
you're right. So I thought you had another team that
you were talking. Maybe I did. Maybe I'm I'm mixed
up here. Oh no, what if I only have I
didn't look in the week. It was a week. It
was a weird week. Yeah, you just the NFL in
most weeks you do.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
But I'll reach you and he have my betting stats
for the week, and Kevin does all my analytics.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
I give him my phone. I got a job. Well.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I also wanted to be like transparent that I'm not
lying right, No, And I appreciate it eventually if I
want to.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Do one and that's fine.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
People to know that Kevin gets on my phone and
goes through it and then sends me all the information.
But what I'm gonna do first, though, is just smiles accountant.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yes, checking those smiles. One smile thing. Oh that's a frown.
Oh well, no, there were there were a lot of frowns,
a lot of frowns there. I picked Seattle on Kansas
City with my winners.
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Okay, so Seattle good.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
I lost Baltimore, Jacksonville, Jacksonville, EDDI.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
And I Jacksonville remind me too.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I want to talk about my almost Oh my god,
I gotta talk about that, do it now?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I mean, Kevin, that show that showed to you, and.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
You didn't show me what you told me about.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
So the thing is, like, I knew we were going
to Vegas, and so almost anytime we travel, I'm like, oh,
I got to put my bets in before we travel
because I never know if I can bet in that
state or not or whatever.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
So I put a nine game parlay real quick.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
It was the quickest I've ever put a parlay at
the airport here in Nashville for college football. Nine games.
Boom hit him. Bet'm bet, I'm bet, I'm ben, I'm
benam Boom. Let's go see what happens Saturday comes around.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
How much do you put on there?
Speaker 5 (08:21):
I put two dollars and ninety four cents to win
a thousand and like fifty or something.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
And so out in the nine games, how many games
do you think you probably hit?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Oh? I know what I hit.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
I hit eight out of the nine games, and the
one I missed was Colorado plus twenty one.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
And it was crazy because it was the first game.
It was the first game of the day, so so
it kind of kills it.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
So it kind of killed the whole thing.
Speaker 5 (08:47):
But I went back and I was like, I wonder
if I hit those last three games because I stopped
watching in the night games.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I go back.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Sure enough, I hit Texas, I hit Penn State, and
I hit what was the last one, Miami.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Maybe it just hits you like you're just get more
frustrated instead of excited. If it had been the last
game of the day that had been awesome, you have
to you have to decide if you're going to settle
up or there's.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
No cash out, right. So that was brutal Man's that sucks.
At least it was the first one. I don't I
mean that better or worse? Better?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yeah, because you don't get it all day worried about it.
You just happen to look back at it and go,
oh man, not okay, okay, one more okay.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That feeling's crazy though, when it's the last one or
the last two games, you're like, oh my gosh, I
have a chance at one thousand dollars. Okay. Here are
my betting stats this weekend. NC DOUBLEA.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Total wagered one thousand, five hundred and sixty one dollars
paid one thousand, three hundred and eighty five dollars total
negative one seventy six. My Arkansas bet saved my butt
or I lost it all at a bad week at
a bad week college NFL wagered one thousand, three hundred
and seventy five dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Crazy, dude, No.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
That's my favorite part about the auditing. Yeah, I'm like, wow, oh, okay.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
I'll do mine after yours wager four dollars paid plus
one eighty three.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Okay, so I was plus eighty three NFL minus won
seventy six in c double a ten bucks, seven bucks
for the weekend at a boy, I'm not a loss
plus seven dollars now. Season total wagered eight thousand, four
hundred and seventy four dollars unbelievable weeks.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I can give you that number. That's wrong with you?
What's wrong with you? That's crazy, dude. Would I'd get divorced?
I would have got divorced five times. Might spend that
kind of money?
Speaker 3 (10:51):
So season total sixty five combined bets wagered eight thousand,
four hundred and seventy four dollars. Winnings plus four to
forty five.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Okay, looking up.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
If you want to know, because I had Kevin break
it down even more because usually I feel so confident
in college and just NFL is like just throwing those
darts at those balloons at the fair and you're like,
I don't know, is it going to hit one? Maybe NCAA.
Over the year so far, I'm down five to eighty
one NFL. I'm up one thy thirty nine. Wow, but
I'm up four hundred and forty five dollars on the
season total wagered eight thousand, four or seventy four dollars
(11:25):
sixty five combined bets.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
So many bets.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
That's crazy, dude, That's that's pretty cool.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
You have Kevin doing that, Like it's cool because I
don't think a lot of people know that. Like I
go down my list of like bets, I probably placed
that many bets. It's like way less money, but it's
all relative, sure, but yeah, like mine's probably placed five
hundred bets this weekend.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I just am only doing it for transparency reasons because
I hate when people are like bet this, bet that,
bet that, and then either they don't bet it or
they only talk about their their win. I mean, I
can show you all my losses and it, but that's boring.
But I just want to kind of tell you where
I sit. I like it, so, yeah, all right. Twenty

Go and search him out on Instagram. A big fan
Jacob Hester, Jacob, Hey, what's going on? Hey man, it's
tough to talk to somebody. I'm gona be honest with you.
I'm just gonna be honest with you. Like been a fan,
well sort of but mostly when you're a pro. But
(13:39):
it's a tough talk to LSU guy after this weekend. Man, Hey,
I didn't even wear ls show. Wore North Dakota State
just for you.
Speaker 7 (13:45):
I didn't want to rub it in so like I
wore a North Dakota State sweatshirt just so I didn't
rub it in.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
I appreciate it, and you know what you could. Let's
just we're here, let's just talk about it for a second.
That's a great game. Not gonna lie about it.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I don't know why we didn't let you guys score
at the end of the game and take a shot
at it at the end.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
What do you think about this year's LSU program.
Speaker 7 (14:04):
I don't know, Just like I don't know about any
of college football. I'm not sure exactly what's going on.
You have the Mississippi State like from two weeks ago,
you're like, Okay, they're back in it, and then you
have this week where they're at home and they let
Arkansas in the game time and time again.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
So yeah, you guys are going through Obviously, you had
a new coach. He's his second years this year, and
when you guys lost to Florida State last year at
the beginning of the year and everybody's melting down a
little bit, like.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
This sucks is over.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
You felt that switch halfway through the year with LSU,
where now it's like we're a national championship team, and
so do you feel like this is a year next year, Like,
how long does it take to build a program down there?
Do you guys feel like it needs to be one
or two years immediate now because you are a power
in the SEC.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
Yeah, it has to be immediate at a place like LSU.
I mean, when you look at the last three head coaches,
they've all won national championships and whatever. Nick Saban unlocked
in the early two thousands, and now it's like, okay,
you see what it can be. LSU has had some
ups and downs, but since the early two thousands, they've
been one of the standards of college football, second most
national championships to Alabama, and so like, you don't have
(15:10):
a grace period as the LSU had football coach, and
Brian Kelly certainly overachieved a year ago taking over the
roster that he did, but then all he did and
you know, this was heighten the expectation and so now
like just getting to Atlanta and the SEC championship game
is like the bare minimum, it feels like because you've
had so many coaches win national championships and so that's
(15:31):
why the expectation I think was so high this year
for LSU. It's because okay, well that was nice what
you did a year ago, but now I need you
to be back into the championship conversation.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
My last question about LSU but having Brian Kelly as
your coach because we had Bobby Petrino for a while,
and Bobby Petrino he won games, but he was not
a very likable person. And I mean he didn't try
to convince you to like him. He just was going
to go out and win games.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I feel like Brian Kelly is a bit the same
where if you don't have him on your team, you
don't really like him. He didn't seem like a super
likable guy.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
From tenthous feet up in the air, how do you
feel about Brian Kelly?
Speaker 2 (16:03):
You have you spent any time with him as a dude?
Speaker 7 (16:05):
Has there ever been like a Notre Dame coach that
anybody's liked that wasn't a Notre Dame fan, you know
what I mean? And so like, Brian Kelly's the Notre
Dame coach for a long time, the winningest coach in
that program's history. And I'll be honest with you, like
I just thought I wouldn't like him because nobody likes
the Notre Dame coach now Marcus Freeman's probably changed some
of that, but getting to know him and I have
(16:25):
had a chance to spend some time with him, and
I think you're getting a different version of what I
thought he was at Notre Dame. And I do think
he's the right guy to lead Lshuess program. I mean
his track record and then Lashoes track record, like we
just talked about, they feel like they're the perfect duo
of the perfect marriage. And make no mistake about it,
you are married together. I mean with his contract and
(16:46):
some of the numbers of his contract, you're going to
be together for like nine more years at minimum, and
so like it has to work. It's one of those
situations and it's going in the right direction. But again
it's like, Okay, every time you get excited about the team,
then you had a performance like you had on Saturday,
and look, you're always going to take a win. And Bobby,
you know, the LSU Arkansas series, just like I do,
(17:07):
records be damned, like it doesn't really matter. I know
for me, like the year we won a national championship,
we lost Arkansas in triple overtime. It's just that kind
of series, and so you'll always take a win certainly
in the SEC, but you'd like to see LSU just
continue to rise and not rise and install and then
rise again.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
We talked about and you mentioned unfair or fair expectations.
Now let's move that over to Colorado. As we saw
them get real, I mean boat raced by Oregon this week.
I think we all thought they would lose their best
players not playing Oregon's also just really freaking.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Good, I mean a little bit. All that success early
has created a whole new group of haters for Dion Sanders, Like,
what's a success for Colorado this year?
Speaker 7 (17:50):
I think getting to a Bowl game would be a
massive success. I mean, Bobby, they were a team that
won a singular game a year ago. They were bad,
I mean, they were epically bad. And then you and
you win a game against the TCU, and then you
beat in Nebraska, and then you beat a rival.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Like.
Speaker 7 (18:05):
They've got three wins, right, it's triple what they had
just a year ago. And if they get to a
seven and five record, that has to be a massive
success considering everything that you did on this roster, which
is basically a brand new team, and then where they
were a year ago. The buy in is there, Like
the cheapest ticket to get into the Colorado State game
was like four hundred and seventeen bucks to get into
(18:27):
a PAC twelve versus Mountain West game. Right, So the
buzz is there. We saw game Day. They've got every star,
They've got Lil Wayne, They've got the Rock. The Rock
played for Miami. Why are you at Colorado? Doesn't matter?
He's there, right, And so they're doing a lot of
good things for that program right now. And I think
that the expectation got blown out of the water because
of where they started, how they started going against a
(18:49):
team in TCU that played for a national championship. But
you have to be a realistic viewer, and I think
realistically they have a chance to make a Bowl game,
which is a really nice season considering where you or
a year ago.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
And I would say the same thing.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
But I think now, if they don't win nine or
ten games, you're gonna have a lot of uneducated people
hating very loudly, going I told you so, but you
told us what.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
You just don't like Deon Sanders.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
I mean that's how I feel that that expectation has
been so unfairly said over there.
Speaker 7 (19:18):
That makes no sense to me, like, why do you
not like somebody because they're doing it differently?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Like that just does not make sense to me.
Speaker 7 (19:25):
Like, he has got a way that he wants to
build this program and you had to hit reset. When
you watch that team a year ago, they were never
going to be competitive and it's a harsh reality. But
he had to go in there hit reset. He brought
in better players. They're only going to continue now if
he stays there for three or four years. I think
they really truly can build something there. But that's the
way that he had to do it in his eyes.
(19:46):
It's like when you look at that and then you
look at like Saya Dabosweeney at Clemson, Well he doesn't
take players through the transfer portal.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
He doesn't like nil. Well, how's that working out for them?
Right now?
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Clemson is two and two and Clemson is one of
the pillars of college football over the last decade? Are
they being left behind right now? Feels like they're at
the train station. The train's moving and they're staying right
there on the platform and everybody else is kind of
on that ride going to the future of college football.
And so like there's a couple of different ways you
can do it, but don't hate on someone, hate on
(20:16):
a coach, hate on a team because they're doing it
differently than you've seen it done before.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
College football is changing. I mean we're on a path
like we've never seen before.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
Twenty twenty four is going to be completely different than
anything we've ever seen in college football.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
So yes, you have to do a different way.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Don't hate on somebody because they're not doing it the
way you like it or the way it's been done before.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
You're talking about the relationship that you have with a
head coach for X amount of years when you pay
them a bunch of money.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I think about Jimbo Fisher and I think, I mean.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
That Miami game that Miami A and M game was not,
but A and M just always seems to let A
and M fans down, I feel. But Jimbo Fisher, when
is it going to get to the point where they
feel like they can actually buy that contract out? And
is that a school Like if you were Dion Sanders
would just love to go to Texas A and.
Speaker 7 (21:01):
M right, I mean, doesn't Dionne in the SEC like
the place like Florida A and M just feeling incredibly
scary to the rest of the SEC fan bases.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
And look, I love Jimbo Fisher.
Speaker 7 (21:11):
Jimbo Fisher was my offensive coordinator for three years at LSU.
Like I'm able to sit here and do shows like
this because Jimbo Fisher trusted me to play running back,
and so it does pay me to see them continue
to have games like they had against Miami. But Bobby,
the wild thing is, I cannot tell you. If my
life depended on why can A and m not be successful?
I could not give you an answer. I'd be six
feet under and I'd be having dirt thrown on top
(21:33):
of me because I don't know why they're not good.
They haven't won a national championship since nineteen thirty nine.
Elvis Presley was in diapers the last time they won
a national championship. They haven't won a conference championship since
nineteen ninety eight. They've only won one, I believe in
that ninety eight since ninety four, like one conference championship
(21:54):
since nineteen ninety four. Look, oil's not new, and they've
got all the oil money, they have, all the resource,
they have, all the buy in, the desire, the stadium,
the state of Texas, to recruit to the big national
championship winning coach. But I cannot tell you why they
can't be successful. It blows my mind. They have everything
that you possibly need to be great and one national
(22:16):
championship since nineteen thirty nine, one conference championship in a
couple of decades. That to me, it just doesn't make sense.
And I do not have an answer for you.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Well, and also, you know he's won a national championship
at a what we will say, lesser school, but at
a well we'll say a conference that isn't as difficult
with it.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Way more resources at A and M yes than Florida State.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
With you said that, go, I just I don't want
to get beat dev so I'll let you say that.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
So, well, what's happening here with the dynamic with Patrino
as the offensive coordinator but Jimbo Fisher as the head coach,
And you know, Jimbo is saying I'm gonna call the
plays but Patrino like that's his strength, Like what what
do you think is the dynamic over there?
Speaker 7 (22:50):
So far?
Speaker 4 (22:51):
So so far, it's it's been okay.
Speaker 7 (22:54):
And I know in the off season we were kind
of wanting and a lot of people were hoping we'd
see an MMA fight breakout on the sideline between those
two huge personalities. But the offense has actually been really good.
The game they lost against Miami, that was because the
defense didn't show up there. I mean, you just watched
this last game against Auburn. Like Texas A and M
is moving the ball, they're scoring points. They're actually catching
(23:15):
up to today's offenses in college football, and so so
far that's actually worked out pretty well. The question I
had was Bobby Petrino in Missouri State, they were like
fifty fifth I think in total offense at the FCS level.
I didn't really know if his schemes were going to
work in today's college football. But whatever they've done to
blend it together, that part of it has actually worked.
(23:36):
And so we'll see if Texas A and M. They've
got really the thick of their SEC schedule coming up,
they got to play Alabama, they got to play Tennessee
South Carolina. We'll find out more about the Aggies. But
again they've already got that loss. They've still got Alabama,
they've still got Tennessee LSU still left on their schedule,
Old miss and so I don't know why they can't
put it all together. It feels like at least once
(23:57):
they would, but it hasn't happened yet.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Insulted in my face. They play Arkansas next week and
he never once mention them. You know, so I'll just
accept the insult. Yeah, you got us twice, You got
me twice in like three days. Jacob Alabama. They play
a Southern Florida and it doesn't look great. They play
a good Old they win, by the way, but they
play a good Old Miss tam team and it looks
pretty good. What is your take on Alabama where they
(24:20):
are in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 7 (24:22):
I think Alabama is good with a chance to be great,
but not be elite. I think when you look at
who they have, they've got some players up front. Defensive
line is really really good. Offensive line big question marks.
Playmakers on the outside. As far as receivers, big question marks.
They're still figuring out who the quarterback is. Jaylen Milroe
(24:42):
had nice moments against Old Miss, but he also had
a moment where he goes an interception in a coverage
that you can just not throw that football like that
is a scheme in which he should know he's played
enough football to know that, and so still inconsistency at
the quarterback position, and Alabama's gonna win their games. But
I do not think this is a championship Alabama team.
And I know every time we say that, they prove
(25:03):
us wrong. I mean, you can even go back to
the stats. The last time Nick Saban had a double
digit home loss was two thousand and three while he
was a head coach at LSU. Well, they went and
won a national title that year at LSU. Last time
they weren't ranking the top ten in the AP twenty fifteen,
they went and won a national championship that year. So
they've proven us wrong time and time again. But Bobby,
(25:23):
this roster doesn't look like a national championship roster. I
think again, they can win ten games, they can go
to a New Year six Bowl game, but they still
have games on their schedule that they've got to go
out there and it's going to be similar talent and
can they make the place to win When you look
at some of the quarterback matchups down the road, like
when they play LSU. LSU Jayden Daniels had a really
good game in that matchup a year ago. Is your
(25:46):
quarterback going to be able to make the plays to
win a game like that. So it's not it feels
disrespectful because Alabama is the standard of college football. But
right now they can be a good team, possibly great,
but I do not see an elite roster right now.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
How do you feel physically after playing, obviously at the
highest level in college one national championship, played in the NFL
for those years, do you have nagging injuries or because
you probably still could have played when you quit, right
or did you get out because you didn't want to
have that happen in your whole life?
Speaker 7 (26:14):
Well, yeah, it's a great question. And so I was
six years in the NFL playing the fullback position, and
I played running back at LSU. But hey, you get
drafted to the NFL, you do exactly what they want
you to do, so you can have a career there.
And it was something there was a lot of collisions,
and so, yeah, you deal with some stuff and some
of it's unfortunate. And I was actually so I was
(26:35):
going into year number seven. I just finished up. I
had four and a half years in San Diego, a
year and a half with Denver, and then the hometown
Saints call and I grew up a huge Saints fan.
Bobby Abert shout out to the Cajun Cannon, and I
was like, Okay, if there's any team I'm going to
try to keep playing, it's going to be the Saints.
But I had this moment and I moved my family.
(26:55):
So I now have five kids, but I had three
at the time, and we're moving across the country, moving
from California to Colorado back to Louisiana. And then you
get this call to go play for the New Orleans Saints.
And I had this moment, Bobby, it's hard to when
they called me to give me the contract to go
to training camp, I had this feeling in my gut
that was not a good feeling. It wasn't like an
excited feeling. It was like, hey, Bud, you were done.
(27:18):
And if you're not fully into the NFL, if you're
not one hundred percent in, you don't need to be
out there because you're not going to farewell. And so
I had that moment of hey, go ahead, and I
already had some media things lined up. It's like, this
is time to start your next career. And so, yeah,
I deal with stuff every single day as far as injuries.
But I think I got out at the right time
because if I'd have played one more year, I really don't.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Know where my body would have been.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
And again, I didn't want to move my family yet
again for a third time in three years.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Last question I have for you here, but whenever you
stop playing football and you've been celebrated for that your
entire life youth to NFL, like, did you have a
brief period where you're like, I don't even know who
I am right now because I've only done this one thing.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
Absolutely and again, like I already knew that I wanted
to get into sports media. I had done some radio
while I was playing in San Diego, and I even.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Kind of had a path to what I wanted to do.
Speaker 7 (28:11):
But you do feel lost, And I feel so bad
for my NFL brethren that have no path, they don't
know what they want to do. I mean, it's every
every piece of you has to be fully bought in
to being an NFL player in high school and college,
and certainly once you get to the NFL and it
is your entire life, it consumes you because if it doesn't,
you're not going to make it. And then all of
(28:31):
a sudden one day they tell you, hey, you're done.
You're not gonna be able to play anymore. And you
created this competitive nature that you have, and that's really
the thing that you try to find. Where do I
put this? How am I competitive in everyday life? Because
I've always competed every single day of my life to
keep my job, to be the best at my job.
Speaker 4 (28:48):
And I still this to this day.
Speaker 7 (28:49):
I've been retired for like eight years, and I want
to be competitive in something. You tried to do it
in your job, and you can to some extent, But
it's like, do I need to go play like co
Ed over thirty soft Farers because I really need to
get this competitive nature out.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
That's probably the hardest part is where do I place that?
Speaker 7 (29:06):
And again, like you said, I've done this every day
of my life to get ready for this point. It's
all I've really ever done. It's an elite skill set,
But now what do I do? And I wish the
NFLPA It's a whole different conversation, but I wish they
did a little bit more to help players out once
they're done playing.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
I'm a big fan of you guys, you and T
Bow both, so let me say this, and we mentioned
before you came on. But you guys host off Campus
on ESPN Radio and Serious XM. You can watch them
seven to ten am Central Time on YouTube one oh
four or five ESPN. But Tibaw doesn't know who I am,
doesn't know I exist, but tell him I say hello, ocay,
I listen to you guys. You guys are awesome. T
Bob's funniest crap as well, and so just you guys
(29:41):
keep at it. I it was just unfortunate it had
to be after the LSU game because I came into
this interview not liking you as much as I usually do.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
But it is what it is, and we'll move on
in next week.
Speaker 7 (29:50):

Speaker 3 (31:04):
For those watching right now, we are multi multitasking. I'm
eating lunch, I'm having a makeup put on me because
I'm about to go do an interview with Dolly.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
We're doing the sports show.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
So if you're watching this on the feed right now,
I apologize all right, entertaining.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Kevin, You're up number one.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Okay. I know that the loss on Saturday to Oregon,
But I was saying about Dean Sanders being a head
coach former player, and if you think of somebody else
I can come in there change a program NFL or college.
Who do you think could do that and what program
would it be with?
Speaker 3 (31:37):
I mean, part of the Dion effect is he's so outspoken,
so not everybody has to be as outspoken. But part
of the reason that he's so has always been successful.
One is that he can back it up. It is
obviously one of the best ever, but that he tells
like he's a scene himself. And they're also going to
lose more games, so you know, I don't think there
(31:58):
should be any guilt about them oozing. But I think
Peyton Manning is somebody that would come into like a
Tennessee Oh that'd be cool and just demand so much
respecting people would want to play for him. I mean
that's what Dion does, right, demands respect through his way,
like being one of the greatest of all time and
being like.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
A Super Players coach.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
But I think Peyton Manning, I don't know if he'd
be a Super Players coach or not, but I think
Peyton Manning would come in and be somebody that people
would listen to you right away. And he's so cerebral
as opposed to someone like a Tom Brady who's a
big winner.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
But I don't know that he'd be a good coach
because I don't think. I don't think of Tom Brady
is like an x as an O's guy.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
I think a Peyton Manning is. He's an offensive coordinator.
He's his own offensive coordinator. He's like obsessed with film
and tape.
Speaker 6 (32:37):
I think, yeah, what if Brady had that. I'm definitely
a friend he got offended.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
We don't know that side of Brady though. You know,
like I've never heard him.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Talk football, and I've never heard him talk thank you, Lauren.
I've never heard him talk or people talk about how
obsessed he is with football granularly. It's always he trains,
he already works out, he motivates his guys.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
He kisses his son on the lips.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Okay, But Peyton Manning is that guy who is notebook
after notebook obsessed with film because.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
We've seen him and his brother like just talk football
and dissect.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
It, and we've heard people talk about them in that way,
and you have to be obsessed to be at a highlight.
But I would say Peyton Manning way more than Brady.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
What Like, we didn't know Romo was so like knowledgeable.
Speaker 5 (33:23):
I mean, I knew he was like a good decent quarterback,
but until he was in the booth, that's when we're like, Wow,
this guy really knows football.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
Yeah, Brady will be there next year, so maybe we'll
find out. This is not a Brady defense.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
I know.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
I'm just saying, God, dang, all right, what else ask
me a question?
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Hates my answer? God?
Speaker 6 (33:42):
After a low scoring battle in South Bend the other night,
did you leave the Notre Dame Ohio State game thinking
like these are two really good teams or two average
teams just kind of going at it.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
I always feel like Notre Dame is an average team
and they always get the benefit of the doubt if
they're playing other average teams that both teams are great
because everybody just wants Notre Dame to be good. But
I and I always feel like Ohio States Alps. I
always fel like they're really good even if they're not.
Give them the benefit of the doubt because they have
been really good over the years. But when I was
watching the game, I thought they were both fine and
sometimes superpowered match Superpower and equals and zero Row. Yeah,
(34:14):
but I didn't feel like this was Iron Man versus
Captain America. I felt like it was more like ant Man,
oh versus who's a flash se.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Yeah, like one of the other b ones, like still good,
you can probably still save a life, blue beetle. Yeah,
but it ain't one of the mains, you know. Yeah,
they're both good teams.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Do I think either one of them will win the
national championships? The show think Ohio State possibly, I don't.
I don't think Notre Dame will, though after watching them
three games so far this year, they're a lot better
than I say they were. I mean, when Brian Kelly
was the coach, they got to the playoff, but generally
they don't. They kind they're like the cowboys, whoa, whoa, WHOA,
what does that mean? All due respect America's team? Okay,
(34:58):
fair enough, all right?
Speaker 6 (34:59):
Next going to the NFL after starting zero and three
and taking a seventy to twenty beat down in Miami
on Sunday. Do you think Sean Payton's regretting taking that
job in Denver?
Speaker 3 (35:09):
I would have said no last week, and I don't
know if he's regretting it. Maybe he regrets that he
can't forge more of a relationship with his quarterback because
I don't feel like they're on the same page at all,
him and Russell Wilson. I don't feel like again, I
could see Russell Wilson getting benched even being owed all
that money. So I don't know if he regrets it,
(35:31):
but I think he probably regrets saying that the last
coaching job before him was the worst coaching job of
all time.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Yikes hmm.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
I think that's probably something he wish he wouldn't have said.
But Shanay's always one a guy who says it.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
Right or wrong.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
He just says it, and you gotta respect that. That's
seventy to twenty. That was a bad one man, and
that Posty scored eight touchdowns between moster and a chain.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah in fantasy some happy people. I had eight tan
on my bench. That's right. But I'm sure a lot
of people.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
Yeah, but I had him on my rosterverybody trying to
pickhim up now, but already I have a Yeah, he
had fifty two points on the bench.
Speaker 6 (36:04):
That's rough.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
That's rough, all right?
Speaker 6 (36:05):
Last one here justin fields, all time low in Chicago.
Do you think he'll make it through the season as
a starter.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
I'm so shocked at how bad they are, especially because
they got a lot better midway through the end part
of last year, and they're supposed to be a like
their head coach, Eberfless is a defensive coach. Their defense sucks.
But also justin fields last year, the big breakthrough was
(36:34):
whenever he just started running on purpose, because he would,
they would say, well, he can't stand in the pocket
one two, Then he runs. Finally, they started designing a
lot of run plays for him and that helped them
and they started to win more and we saw the
Bears win some games at the end of last year.
Is this just happening again? Because now he has more
weapons around him too. He's got a number one receiver.
(36:58):
I have to still think that the Bears are gonna
win some games. I don't know how because they look awful, bad,
like they look like the worst team in the NFL.
But I just saw the same team basically last year
win a bunch of games. So I'm still gonna stick
with them and say they're going to be a five
hundred team.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
That's tough. It's tough, m hm.
Speaker 5 (37:20):
And they're gonna keep Feels as their starter the whole season.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Yeah, yeah, I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (37:24):
I mean, if they were to lose with if they're
getting close towards the end, Fields is their starter, they
have a chance the number one, number two pick.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I have no doubt Fields. Well, I have doubt.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
Fields probably have some sort of mystery injury or they'll
take them out of something so they can keep losing
and get that pick and then trade Fields.
Speaker 6 (37:42):
Game of the Week this week versus Broncos.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Who's watching that one? We all will, I guess I'll entertainment.
We'll watch it. We love any football. But god, Okay,
that's the title tittle, And.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
I do want to bring this up before we end
the show. We went to Las Vegas. All four of
us were playing craps together. Mike he make some money boys. Well,
Mike d could have stayed, but he wanted to get
back and have a line.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
He was a smart guy. Yeah, he's a smart one.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Our episode with UNLV is up, so you can watch that.
But we had a little chance. Let's make some money.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
The boys.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
Let's make some money boys. Let's make some money boys.
Let's make some money boys. So we go to the
crafts table and I've been working. We'll meet you guys
at the crash table. And Eddie was not playing but standing.
At first it was a packed table.
Speaker 3 (38:39):
And really for me, I just wedged my way in there.
Yeah he did, but I think there were four of us.
So I'm gonna sit out for a little bit. And
Kevin and Reed had never played craps before, so I said, okay,
I want to. This is the fundamental way to play craps.
We're just going to show you the very first thing.
You roll the dice, that's your point. You try to
hit the point. That's how you went. But if you're
all seven or let to win. So we started slell
(39:01):
a lot of butts. Well, the first thing you got
to know, though, is what that point is right right?
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Like?
Speaker 2 (39:06):
What that so like I too landed. Oh yeah, we
didn't tell you about that. Yeah, that when you lose,
you lose.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
So we're playing, and we played I don't know, ten
fifteen minutes, and I felt like you guys were starting
to get the hang of it a little bit, although
also felt like Reid had a little bit to drink,
was just throwing money out.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
He did even care if I get lost her lot.
He was just here's money. And so.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
We have our chips, and this lady who's never played
Crafts before, gets the dice. She's wearing a Burberry sweatshirt
and she starts to throw, and she threw for forty
one minutes on one roll. And I didn't want to
say it while we were playing, because you never want
to comment on somebody's throwing hot you believe in the jinks,
it's just that, I fully there's no reason to mess
(39:52):
with it, even if I don't believe in it.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Am I gonna screw with it? No? You believe in
it though, Nope, sure don't. But I'm not gonna screw
with it. She threw for forty one minutes, and Eddie
said back, I can never got intil she was done,
Like he let such a hot roll.
Speaker 6 (40:03):
Yeah, oh yeah, you were in.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
Uh, I missed all of her role.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
So Reid and Kevin and myself were doing pretty good
when it's some money and Reid's going, this is the
easiest game ever.
Speaker 6 (40:14):
Oh boy, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
He never played before, but he's like, this is the
easiest game we ever played. How do we not play
this more? All you do is win?
Speaker 6 (40:20):
Yes, yea.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
And what I wanted to say was that was such
a rare treat to have someone roll that long in
that strong, and it wasn't just her, there were a
few roles. It never left the side of that table
until we left that Guys, if I go to Veggas
ten times, that might happen once. And that was your
intro in.
Speaker 6 (40:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:39):
And so between Reid going why don't we play more
of this? It's all you do is win. This is
the easiest game ever, then Eddie not getting in until
seventy percent of the winning was done, and Kevin running
fullback for me because I'm trying to play the game. Listen.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
I love meeting people listening to the show, but I'm
literally put throwing money out there and some dude, I
don't know if he's drunk or not. It keeps trying
to come around the table and take a picture, like
they don't want picture at the table anyway, Vegas doesn't
want you to take picture at the table.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
You can step back. But we're in the middle of this.
One's only for forty minutes.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
He's like, hey, I want to get a picture, and
Kevin's blocking for me and blocking for me, and I'm thowing.
I'm and I'm like when the role ends, happy too.
But I didn't say, and she rolled for forty one minutes.
I never took a pictures of that.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
I think he left eventually.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
But it was a really fun night. We made a
bunch of money and is a good trip.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
We made some money. Boys.
Speaker 3 (41:40):
I hated the Arkansas loss, butt other than that, Like
read how much did you make on that?
Speaker 2 (41:46):
Just that session?
Speaker 8 (41:47):
Just that session, I put down two hundred dollars and
I left with like seven forty. So you know, so easy, guys.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
That it does seem easy through.
Speaker 5 (41:59):
That, you know, we all went our own ways and
we said like, good night, we're going to bed bones
and I went up the elevator.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
We're going to bed right these two went back to
the table.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
Guys, gambled more. Yeah, okay, let me come back to that. Yes, Eddie,
how much did you make?
Speaker 5 (42:09):
I doubled my mom, I put two hundred down. I
think I walked out of there with one hundred and
fifteen and sixty, like thirty fifty ors, So yeah, yeah, totally.
Speaker 6 (42:16):
Yeah, Kevin, at that table, I made to eighty.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
And what did you start with?
Speaker 6 (42:20):
So I started the weekend four hundred, No, not the weekend,
just the table, just one twenty I believe something like that.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Over one twenty and you left with three eighty right,
good good, yahd role Did that save your weekend?
Speaker 6 (42:32):
Yes? I went from losing three hundred dollars to breaking even.
Speaker 2 (42:35):
Basically, did that save your weekend?
Speaker 8 (42:37):
Oh yeah, I ended up being up like three or
four hundred dollars, so not counting your reimbursement.
Speaker 3 (42:44):
Oh yeah, Kevin told me you'd lost some money, and
so I just gave it.
Speaker 6 (42:48):
That's very record time. What this guy lost money? Record time?
Speaker 2 (42:53):
I heard us a quick one fifty.
Speaker 4 (42:55):
It was a quick one.
Speaker 6 (42:56):
I was four minutes, four minutes.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
And Redo was grinding working the whole time too, on
the way he was, and I was like, hey, look,
you guys do have to learn your lesson in gambling.
But yeah, so I give him a hundred and fifty
bucks to recoup his gambling.
Speaker 8 (43:08):
But yeah, I'm the worst when it comes to like
knowing if I have like ten minutes to gamble. I
didn't know if I was going to get to do anymore.
So then I'm just like, you're rush gambling. Yeah, rush,
that's basically yeah, that's what it was.
Speaker 2 (43:18):
What were you playing?
Speaker 6 (43:19):
Really?
Speaker 2 (43:20):
Oh yeah, I can't. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
I started with five hundred and I left with nineteen seventy.
Speaker 2 (43:28):
Jez Jesus, that's unbelievable. Yeah, almost two thousand.
Speaker 6 (43:33):
Imagine if you want anything on my roles.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
There's only one person the whole time that crapped out immediately.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
It was Kevin. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (43:39):
I was like, you know what, I'm loading up. We're
going kick off, Kevin, I'm loading up. I felt crapped out.
Speaker 6 (43:44):
Yeah, because you feel great? Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:47):
I was like, I just four hundred bucks one roll
right there, dude.
Speaker 3 (43:49):
But it was a lot of fun, and that was
not how it usually happens, guys.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Just so you know, yes, I remember that I had.
Speaker 8 (43:57):
A dream that night, no joke, I'm not even lying.
I had a dream that night that I was at
the table.
Speaker 4 (44:02):
I was at the crabs table.
Speaker 8 (44:03):
You know, everybody's chanting my.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
Name, re you dreamed that, I dreamed that. What on
Earth Motion? He's hooked? So did what did you do
when you went back and gambled after we just did
one more, one more round?
Speaker 6 (44:19):
I think you won another like fifty bucks, didn't you? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Yeah, it was more. It was more at first and then.
Speaker 5 (44:26):
It all starts with one more, one more, but it
was fifty bucks more.
Speaker 2 (44:29):
Yeah. So hey, the week of our guarantees for this week?
Because I read I read wasn't on in the studio earlier.
So have we done our the recap?
Speaker 4 (44:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Yeah, no, we did the recap, But have we done
our ours for this week?
Speaker 6 (44:39):
Not for the coming week?
Speaker 3 (44:39):
And we should do that real quick. That we've tried
to end the show for like twenty minutes, but we
should do that. So oh man, so read, did you
hit yours last week?
Speaker 2 (44:48):
I did? Okay, you hit yours? I hit what we
talked about that. Okay, do you guys have your guarantees
this week? Let me pull mine up.
Speaker 3 (44:54):
That means you just gonna pull up thet I know,
I just got I just got to make sure.
Speaker 2 (44:58):
Okay, well, I'm gonna I'll go first. Good, mine's a
little something called Arkansas. Again. The fact that you guys
are all dead. I told you last.
Speaker 3 (45:05):
Week that the LSU game was just easy. Smiles count
counter smiles. Yeah, so I'm going My mine is Arkansas
plus six and a half. And it says Arkansas at home,
but they're not really. It's a Texas A and M.
It's the Dallas game in Jerry's world, so it's not
really a home game. They're just considered the home team.
(45:27):
But Arkansas plus six and a half, that's it. I done, Kevin.
Speaker 6 (45:34):
I'm gonna go with Georgia at Auburn minus fourteen and
a half.
Speaker 2 (45:39):
Wow, that's all I know.
Speaker 6 (45:43):
That's how I'm like. Really because Auburn, I mean Auburn
three and one, but they're not good.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
Eddie, look, I think I believe, Oh my god, I believe.
Are you going?
Speaker 5 (45:53):
I believe the Razorbacks. Oh okay, they're easy. Let me finish.
The Razorbacks are going to warm up that stadium for
the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (46:04):
Patriots.
Speaker 5 (46:05):
And I have a theory. Guys, we knew we were
going to lose that game. Because this next one was
gonna be really important. We're gonna have New England in
Jerry's world. They're going to kill the Patriots. They're at
seven right now. Take them Dallas Cowboys minus seven. That'll
give you some smile.
Speaker 3 (46:22):
But seven points is a lot in the NFL, unless
you're the Dolphins or.
Speaker 2 (46:26):
The Cowboys versus the Patriots.
Speaker 6 (46:27):
They almost beat the Dolphins.
Speaker 4 (46:29):
Reid, I'm gonna go Colts minus two.
Speaker 3 (46:34):
Read always picks like a weird team, but but he
hits them.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
Have you I've hit one the last one? Okay, so
what so what is it? Red Colts minus yeah? Playing
in Indianapolis versus the Rams.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
Yeah yeah, he goes, Yeah, how much time we got?
Speaker 2 (46:54):
How much you need? I got?
Speaker 5 (46:55):
I got a funny story for for listeners. I want
to know more about Reid. So we were on the
way to the airport and we were talking about road
rage for some reason involved whatever, and Read comes up
with the best story to really explain what kind of
person this guy is. He said, one time, one time,
this guy cut me off, and.
Speaker 2 (47:13):
He said to me, he said, and I rolled down
the window and I yelled, be patient, man, and.
Speaker 5 (47:20):
The guy like sped up got behind me, followed me
for like five minutes.
Speaker 2 (47:24):
Everywhere I went.
Speaker 5 (47:25):
I'm like, oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, he's gonna
kill me. Finally, we were at a stop sign. The
guy got out of his truck said what did you say?
He said, I said, be patient? Man, No you didn't.
You told me bad words. And he's like, no, man,
I swear I said be patient. And the guy goes, oh, okay,
got back to this truck and left, And I'm like,
who says who rolls the window down upset and says
(47:48):
be patient?
Speaker 2 (47:49):
Man. It's there when a guy walks up to your
truck asking what you said. Yeah, that's a true story,
though I love it. I went home and told my wife.
I'm like, she's like, what's read like. I'm like, let
me tell you innocent. Yes, gambling it it's sweet. But
anytime we hear about you gambling you win. You don't
do it a lot.
Speaker 6 (48:09):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
But the time that he got on and bet college
basketball and went ape Crap and just won every game.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
That's why you love him.
Speaker 3 (48:18):
Maybe it's you, bro, Maybe you're just such a good
kind spirit that it just follows you.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
Maybe it is Maybe just be patient, be patient man.
Speaker 3 (48:26):
All right, you guys follow us at twenty five whistles.
Matt Ryan is not going to leave ESPN and go
take the Jets job. By the way, he says he
has no interest. So if they lose again bad, they're
