Loving the NFL tournament we’re doing at SportsPredict.com, headed up by Steve Kuhn (even if Brandon Aubrey’s leg kicked away my dreams). Given that Steve’s got an incredible mind for market inefficiencies, I want him here, regularly, to tell us what everyone else is missing about America’s favorite sport. Join up still to test out how you fare against myself and Steve, a guy who ran a $14 billion hedge fund. To enter the House of Strauss Lobby, password is HOS.
In this pod we discussed, among other matters…
* What’s the effect of the new NFL kickoff rules that Donald Trump hates?
* My “I don’t know anything and neither do YOU” picks strategy
* The impact of kickoff rules on 4th down decision making
* Onside kicks used to be MONEY
* Minnesota did a CRAZY white flag punt
* Should a coach employ trick plays based on randomness?
* What trends are we seeing early?
* House of Strauss subscribers and Chat BCC participants are really…SMART?
* Micah Parsons’ successful impact in Green Bay
* Why does Kyle Shanahan want a predictable running back over a talented running back?

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
