Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's our number three of the programs. On this Wednesday
evening tomorrow, we're going to talk horse racing because this
weekend it is the Kentucky Derby, is it?
Speaker 2 (00:14):
That's the one thing I'm not into horse racing because
you don't gamble. It's not even that, it's I mean,
I understand all these people that say, oh, I'd love
to watch the horses. They're so elec got running around
the track. No, the reason that you're watching the horse
race is because you got money on the one that's
got the nicest name, or is worrying whatever color that
you like the bat best. Unless you actually know how
(00:36):
to read the racing form, I'm tutting.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Into the hat. I want to see the big hat.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Which for the most people are racing. For him is
like reading a foreign newspaper.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
But it's worse than trying to figure out baseball stats
with the win.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
It actually is worse.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I will definitely agree with you on that that it
is if you don't understand what all those things mean.
And even if you do understand what they mean, it
doesn't necessarily mean that you and still a handicap a
raised by it, because if the horse wakes up on
the wrong side of the of the stall.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
I'm sorry, he's probably not running that well today. I'm
gonna I'm gonna go with whoever the smallest and weighs
the less. That's not always the case, jockey.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
And I'm going to pay attention to every horse in
whichever horse relieves itself right before the race.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
That's yeah, but that means you have to make you
have to wait till right before the race to bet it.
If you're going if you're gonna go to Ritama, or
if you're going to Churchill Downs and you want to
get there and bet it and then come back to
the next day to collect your winnings, then you have
to make a decision hours in advance.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Not true.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
We have these things called cell phones, Andy, but you
can't bet on your cell phone. You have to do
it physically in person. If you go with toupe, if
you if it's you and somebody else, you you know,
video chat whatever, uh face time, and you're like, hey,
horse over there, speedy mixed, speedy just went to the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
He looks five pounds lighter that guy.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
No, you know, I'm playing golf on Saturday afternoon. Of course,
if I go to the Retama, it will be in
the morning so that I can say, okay, and I
don't even that I don't even know that I'm going
because I haven't studied it. You know, every poker game
has a patsy and if you don't know who it is,
it's you.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
It's you.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
And every horse race has somebody that stupidly vets on
a race. And if you don't know what you're doing,
and you're if you if if your idea of handicapping
e RaSE is I'm betting on blue today. Any any
jockey that's wearing the blue hat and the blue shirt
that's what I'm going with, then that that's your handicapping system. Great,
(02:36):
But there is a method to the madness, and sometimes
it works and sometimes it doesn't because they are animals
and sometimes and they're humans.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
I mean humans are animals too.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Sometimes we just can't do what our body, our brain
is telling us to do.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, I'm just I'm not a horse racing guy. I
like horses, used to ride them when I was younger.
I'm just not a horse racing guy. My mother was
never a horse race. My mother wanted to go and
watch dog racing. The greyhounds.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Yeah, same thing.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Never got to see that, but they closed that one
down in Corpus about thirty years ago. It never made it.
She was more interested in that.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
But of course, if our legislature would wake up and
have casino casinos in these places, they would be thriving.
As Shane plays the fiddle for me in the other room, exactly.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Thank you, Shane. But I have nothing to get. I mean,
I know what.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Remington Park in Oklahoma City has nothing on Rotama Park
except for the fact that it's got a casino in
it and the parking lot is packed twenty four seven,
three sixty five and quite often with people from Texas.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Well, we love Rotama.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
So regardless, you want to go gamble, you want to
go bet on horse racing, you want to go watch
the Kentucky Derby, the first part of the Triple.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Crown, right the first leg, Hey, there you go, two
weeks later, preak this, three weeks after that, the Belmont.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
So if you want to do that, have at it.
You want to give a little bit to me and Andy,
you know we'll take some too.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Maybe just remember.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Us so you're not doing like a trifecta box I
could do you even want me to explain that to you?
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Go with the horse that runs the fastest.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
To really make the money, you got to like get
the trifector, the exacta or the super effector or one
of those things.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Go with the horse that has the eyes.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
We'll visit with the track announcer out at Ratama tomorrow,
Richard on Yell. He'll be with us and he'll tell
us who he's going to bet on. And that means
that we can either take his advice and win a
lot of money, or not taking his advice and maybe
still win a.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Lot of money.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
I will say that that is a craft, especially when
you have horse names that are so at times ridiculous
to say. Is like now he comes, now run running
around the corner is white thundered and and chocolate lightning
is you know, like like the auctioneers.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Well, the favorite this year is journalism. That's the name
of the horse. That's the favorite. What a weak name?
What a what a week? Yeah, that is a weak name. Journalism.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Journalist.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
I don't know how, I don't know even how you
name a horse, but but but journalism, that's how. That's
what they're what they're doing. That's the that's the three
to one morning lane favorite. And all that changes tomorrow
afternoon when or Friday afternoon because they do the the
Daily Double where you can bet on the Kentucky Oaks
on Friday and the Kentucky Derby on Saturday.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Oh it's not Jeopardy Daily Double.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
No, it's it's the horse that you gotta wait two races,
so the odds will start flipping for all these races.
And the worst thing is is there was one year
where everybody goes out in the morning and makes their
bet on a horse, and at three o'clock that horse
scratches because he woke up with a sneeze or something
that morning, and now your bets are null and void.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
I hate the unfortunate part of during the races where
the horses get injured and it's like, well you.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Know, and I'm like, man, right on the train, here's
why you should bet on. I mean this, this is
right down your hilly. Give me twenty bucks.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
You like synonymous names, Yeah, how about Admire Daytona. You
know what that's you're but you're a stock car fan
and so that's that's not bad. I mean, Admire Daytona
is one of the horses, just name him Daytona.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
I would be the jerk and get with a bunch
of the owners and be like, all right, you're gonna
name your horse him. I'm gonna name my horse who, Charlie,
You're gonna name your horse them, And it's gonna be
that who was on first, on second, passes third? You
know who passes him, who passes her, who passes them,
who passes us?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
East Avenue is a good a good horse name Cole Battle. Okay,
that's not bad.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
There you go, sovereignty. No, I don't like that chunk
of gold. My goodness, Oh almighty. I think they watched
Evan almighty too and Bruce almighty. But journalism is the
three to one favorite in all of this. All right,
let's get to something that's important, like basketball, and not
that the Kentucky Derby isn't important because it is the
(07:01):
king of the sport of Kings, and we'll talk more
about it tomorrow and get all the details on who
to bet on. But before we get into that, well,
let's just get in that. We'll do this other thing later.
Let's talk Warriors and Rockets and Timberwolves and Lakers. I
think the Rockets win tonight, I hope they don't. I
want the Warriors to get this series over with and
get ready for Oklahoma City. So no, they'll play the two,
(07:25):
They'll play Minnesota a Minnesota finishes off the Lakers. I
think Warriors Timberwolves could be an awesome and an awesome semifinal.
I think that the Rockets are going to be really,
really dangerous in years to come. And as we were
talking earlier about the about the Yannis potential trade, that
(07:47):
would be something that would not be very satisfying to
Spurs and Mavericks fans in this state because they would
be so good.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
He we have the alien. I ain't worried, well, you
should be. The alien took care of the freak, the
Yannis freak. We took care of him.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
But I think the Rockets are going to figure out
a way to win it. They they're at home tonight,
and then that would put the Warriors up three too,
and the Warriors would need to win Game six back
in San Francisco, And that's kind of how I see
this series going. On the other side, you got Minnesota
and the Lakers, and I just don't think the Lakers
(08:21):
have enough firepower to stop the Timberwolves.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
They I mean, they have it.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
I just don't know that that firepower is going to
show up somebody other than Lebron and Luca.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
It's going to have to perform.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Now, Listen, you can talk about all you want on
a lot of different things, but there's one thing I
don't understand about what JJ Reddick did in Game four.
And I didn't realize he did this until after the game.
He did not play anybody off the bench in the
second half of Game four. Yeah, the starters that started
the third quarter never left the floor.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Now that's fine if you've got a veteran young if
you've got a young team, but when you've got Luca
and Lebron and one's forty and one sometimes plays like
he's forty, you probably need to give those guys a rest.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Every now and then. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Yeah, so it's uh selfishly, I want the timber Wolves
to win because you know, I don't want the Lakers
to make it.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I want them to be gone. And then that way
we can hear, you know, Colin Cowhart sit here and complain,
Oh the Lakers around on me and the ratings suck,
and nobody wants to watch. Everybody's gonna watch. Life doesn't
revolve around the Lakers and the.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
South Well it kind of does. No, it doesn't. It shouldn't,
but it does. It doesn't because the Celtics and the
Lakers would get the biggest national ratings, because both the
LA market and the Boston market would do great.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Not from you and me, Well, I thought you want to,
I would.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I would check that because traditionally over the years, san
Antonio is a top ten market regardless of who's playing.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Seventh largest city in the world, baby, it's We're one
of the biggest pay per few markets in the world
for boxing matches in UFC matches.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, the things that happen in Vegas are overseas when
they have those matches and they're on pay per view.
San Antonio does that. The pay per view audience is
huge here for that. But I think there was several
years in a row where San Antonio was either third
or fourth in the overall ratings for whoever was in
the NBA finals, even in years that the Spurs were
(10:18):
not in the finals, and so that both people are
going to watch now, I guess from a from a
Madison Avenue standpoint, you want as many eyeballs as you can.
And the Lakers, even though they're quote unquote in the
second biggest market, I'm not so sure that they're not
the first market these days.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
It's from a sports standpoint.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Obviously, New York City is where everything happens, but Los
Angeles is so much of a broader spectrum of people,
I think, and it's spread out more. Most of New
York City's within twelve miles or ten miles, whatever it is.
But the Knicks and until the Yankees finally got to
the World Series, but the Giant, the.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Jets, and the Nicks and.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
The and the Brooklyn Nets haven't really been that big
thing to write about. And I'm not even sure. I
don't care about the Rangers or the Islanders. It's hockey,
so there, Wow, Well does anybody care about other than you?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You like the Stars? The New York Rangers are actually
pretty good. They have Connor McDavid, who's a very yeah,
but does that player? But how many people watch hockey
south of New York?
Speaker 3 (11:27):
A lot of it? I think you're you're, you're, you're.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Getting into the stereotype of just because it's down south,
and that there's not hot.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
The Ranters and the Lightning are good. I understand that
the Panthers won it last year.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah they're and they're and they and I think their
favorite to win it or being one of their favorites
this year.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
They're up there.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
But don't don't don't disrespect Dallas Stars fans loyalty.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Well, because Dallas is Dallas has got what eight million
people are nine million people in the in the metro area.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
It's not even that like you want to talk about
a die hard fan franchise.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Just watch later tonight.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Now, granted they're going to be playing in Colorado at
Ball Center or ball Arena, but the passion that Dallas
Stars fans is to be honest. At times, I would
say even more die hard loyal than MAVs fans.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
They get, especially now they get. Yeah, there was a
couple of times and their general manager didn't trade their
best player. There was a couple of times during the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think it's maybe Game two or just randomly in
the arena, you just start hearing Fico.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
But in the hockey game, in the hockey game, exactly
all right, coming up next to my NFL stuff. They
get to plus the Bill Belichick drama. We'll get to
that next.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
On the ticket
It's our number three of the programs. On this Wednesday
evening tomorrow, we're going to talk horse racing because this

think the Rockets win tonight, I hope they don't. I
want the Warriors to get this series over with and
get ready for Oklahoma City. So no, they'll play the two,
(07:25):
They'll play Minnesota a Minnesota finishes off the Lakers. I
think Warriors Timberwolves could be an awesome and an awesome semifinal.
I think that the Rockets are going to be really,
really dangerous in years to come. And as we were
talking earlier about the about the Yannis potential trade, that
(07:47):
would be something that would not be very satisfying to
Spurs and Mavericks fans in this state because they would
be so good.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
He we have the alien. I ain't worried, well, you
should be. The alien took care of the freak, the
Yannis freak. We took care of him.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
But I think the Rockets are going to figure out
a way to win it. They they're at home tonight,
and then that would put the Warriors up three too,
and the Warriors would need to win Game six back
in San Francisco, And that's kind of how I see
this series going. On the other side, you got Minnesota
and the Lakers, and I just don't think the Lakers
(08:21):
have enough firepower to stop the Timberwolves.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
They I mean, they have it.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
I just don't know that that firepower is going to
show up somebody other than Lebron and Luca.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
It's going to have to perform.

you've got a young team, but when you've got Luca
and Lebron and one's forty and one sometimes plays like
he's forty, you probably need to give those guys a rest.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Every now and then. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Yeah, so it's uh selfishly, I want the timber Wolves
to win because you know, I don't want the Lakers
to make it.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I want them to be gone. And then that way
we can hear, you know, Colin Cowhart sit here and complain,
Oh the Lakers around on me and the ratings suck,
and nobody wants to watch. Everybody's gonna watch. Life doesn't
revolve around the Lakers and the.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
South Well it kind of does. No, it doesn't. It shouldn't,
but it does. It doesn't because the Celtics and the
Lakers would get the biggest national ratings, because both the
LA market and the Boston market would do great.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Not from you and me, Well, I thought you want to,
I would.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I would check that because traditionally over the years, san
Antonio is a top ten market regardless of who's playing.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Seventh largest city in the world, baby, it's We're one
of the biggest pay per few markets in the world
for boxing matches in UFC matches.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, the things that happen in Vegas are overseas when
they have those matches and they're on pay per view.
San Antonio does that. The pay per view audience is
huge here for that. But I think there was several
years in a row where San Antonio was either third
or fourth in the overall ratings for whoever was in
the NBA finals, even in years that the Spurs were
(10:18):
not in the finals, and so that both people are
going to watch now, I guess from a from a
Madison Avenue standpoint, you want as many eyeballs as you can.
And the Lakers, even though they're quote unquote in the
second biggest market, I'm not so sure that they're not
the first market these days.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
It's from a sports standpoint.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Obviously, New York City is where everything happens, but Los
Angeles is so much of a broader spectrum of people,
I think, and it's spread out more. Most of New
York City's within twelve miles or ten miles, whatever it is.
But the Knicks and until the Yankees finally got to
the World Series, but the Giant, the.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Jets, and the Nicks and.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
The and the Brooklyn Nets haven't really been that big
thing to write about. And I'm not even sure. I
don't care about the Rangers or the Islanders. It's hockey,
so there, Wow, Well does anybody care about other than you?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You like the Stars? The New York Rangers are actually
pretty good. They have Connor McDavid, who's a very yeah,
but does that player? But how many people watch hockey
south of New York?
Speaker 3 (11:27):
A lot of it? I think you're you're, you're, you're.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Getting into the stereotype of just because it's down south,
and that there's not hot.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
The Ranters and the Lightning are good. I understand that
the Panthers won it last year.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah they're and they're and they and I think their
favorite to win it or being one of their favorites
this year.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
They're up there.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
But don't don't don't disrespect Dallas Stars fans loyalty.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Well, because Dallas is Dallas has got what eight million
people are nine million people in the in the metro area.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
It's not even that like you want to talk about
a die hard fan franchise.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Just watch later tonight.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Now, granted they're going to be playing in Colorado at
Ball Center or ball Arena, but the passion that Dallas
Stars fans is to be honest. At times, I would
say even more die hard loyal than MAVs fans.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
They get, especially now they get. Yeah, there was a
couple of times and their general manager didn't trade their
best player. There was a couple of times during the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think it's maybe Game two or just randomly in
the arena, you just start hearing Fico.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
But in the hockey game, in the hockey game, exactly
all right, coming up next to my NFL stuff. They
get to plus the Bill Belichick drama. We'll get to
that next.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
On the ticket
