Speaker 1 (00:09):
We are losers. There's what up, everybody? I am lunchbox.
I know the most about sports, so I'll give you
the sports facts, my sports opinions because I'm pretty much
a sports genius. What's up, everyone, I'm Eddie and I
know the least about the sports. But I'm your average
sports fan, your sports watcher. Don't know the who's who,
(00:32):
don't know the what's what, y'all? It is says. I'm
from the north of an alpha male. I live currently
on the west side of Nashville. We got heavy rain
over the weekend, no flooding. Luckily we were on the bluff.
I was also out of town anyways, on the weekends.
I primarily shotgun Hard Seltzer strictly on the weekends. Guys,
over to you and let me go ahead and hit it. Really,
(00:56):
that wasn't what I was gonna start with. The game, Alabama,
what what in the wrong with you? Like? What in
the hell is wrong with it? I mean, would you
say that? Let me tell you, I have never seen,
I have never seen a more pathetic effort than what
Alabama showed last night. Okay, no, you're wrong on that.
(01:19):
I'm wrong. They were down eleven that was some heart
in the second half. Coach, I hadem winning it at
all the overtime because they did. They did shoot a
buzzer beater from half court, coach to tie the game
and get overtime. No, no, no, no, no. They should
have never been in that position. There's this thing called
free throws where no one is guarding you. They're called
(01:42):
free because they are basically three points they are giving you.
Let's see you hit those. Let me see you hit
ten in the in the tournament. Let me see you
that's what you. You came on here and said that
all those percentages don't mean anything because they get punkered.
You go up there, it's the big dance, you get puckered.
It's not the same scenario. Coaches shooting free throws in
(02:03):
the backyard. Come on it, absolutely U c l A
had no problem, no problem, had nothing to lose. Coach
their first four teams and they're supposed to be there. Stop.
Everybody has something to lose because they are playing in
the game, so they have a chance to lose. This
is I mean, you want to talk about, see, oh
we shoot the ball from three Their coaches philosophy threes,
(02:25):
free throws and get to the rim. Well, you might
want to work on your philosophy because you need to
take some scholarships away. Because they were eleven of twenty
six from the free throw line. How the hell are
you a Division one basketball team and you shoot eleven
of twenty six from the free throw line. So their
(02:46):
philosophy is three pointers, free throws, and attack the rim.
That's it interesting. And they weren't making this when they attacked.
That's when they scored. They were vicious to the rim.
And I'm sorry, I've watched Alabama and I guess I
didn't realize they sucked so bad at three. I understood
they took a lot of threes, but they do. They
(03:07):
do so even the halftime guys, Charles and all them go,
oh they live and die by the three. They do.
But man, they're they're gonna die a lot of deaths
because they're not good at three. No, they're not. Because
in the game they showed it. They said, look on
the year, Alabama is shooting thirty five percent from three,
which ranks guess where in the n C Double A.
(03:28):
And they the coach He's gotta throwback code apparently wears
this old time thing as a tribute to Alabama. They go,
he's a stats guy. He likes the status tacher. He's
a math guy. But math teacher, you need those three points.
You don't need to be a math genius to know
that when you get free thos, you gotta make the
(03:48):
damn thing go. He's so good at math. Sometimes he'll
just throw that out the window and say, I like
the three Well, listen, if you're not making him, go
with the math and don't shoot anymore of No, you
don't even need to shoot, just learned how to shoot
free throws. How I mean. No, lunch Box was a
huge Alabama fan. No, I had him in a bet.
I had him in my eliminating I started gambling. No,
(04:10):
I had him in my listenm we were down. We
were We started with seventy two people. We were down
to seven, seven, the elite seven, and all I had
to do I needed Bama to win that Gonzaga save
for Tuesday. Tuesday. You're not gonna get to Tuesday, Coach.
(04:35):
That's what happened. I don't save coach, Yes, you do,
because I was gonna be the only one with Gonzaga
and everyone VI coach. It's the name of the game, coach,
you know how great you'd have been feeling with Gonzaga.
They won by a hundred. Hey, I think we saw
our national champion. Whoa Gonzaga is a team that's the
first time. Hey, oh no, I mean I'm serious the
(05:00):
road to victory. But I've always said this, whenever I
am cheering for a team, it's like they cannot hit
free throws and the other team doesn't miss. I mean
U c l A guys sixty percent on the ear
nothing but Neett, nothing but Neette. Alabama guy eight percent
on the ear brick. But I mean U c l
A did as well. They had the front end of
the one and one. That dude missed it. I mean
(05:21):
there were free throws get missed late in the game.
If you're a kid right now in your backyard practice,
you don't want to do it. You're on TikTok, maybe
you got a girl over, you're playing with your brother. Guys,
just go practice some free throws because it's gonna come
up clutch and march madness. Yes, A j my friend
who was a baller, and when we were kids, he
would he would shoot a hundred free throws before he
went inside. When he was done playing basketball, he would
(05:42):
practice his other shots. Then he would do a hundred
free throws. Why because they're important. They win nobody, nobody.
He wasn't tall enough. Eddie does a hundred free throws
on two K. I'm a one percent free throw shooting
in two K. One that's no. The free throws are
pretty easy on two Well, I coach, I just played
(06:03):
all weekend with my nephew. That thing rattles a little bit.
Who did you play with? We do all SI, I'm
jo honest, he's not all Stars, but it isn't really good.
I mean, but but here I will agree with Lunch.
I was frustrated. Dude, Me and be at Bay didn't
care about our back at bracket was busted except for
one thing. If Bama won it all, we pretty much
(06:24):
could win every pool. But yeah, ours went all the
wayside as well, it was fun. At least they went
to overtime, so they didn't look good at all. It
was a miracle they got to over guys. When they
went to overtime, I thought, okay, like Alabama Stars getting ahead,
and I'm like, yeah, here we go. Well they start
u c L a star player was out and then
U c l A takes the big lead, and coming
out of half, Alabama comes storming back. I'm like, all right, now,
(06:46):
Alabama's gonna roll d Alabama out of the halftime role tied.
That team was fierce, bro. I've never seen a team
go after a basket like it's a hunk of like
U like it's a beautyful woman. Alabama went after that
(07:06):
basket like it was a ten at the bar coach
and I was impressed by that. But yeah, get away
from the three pointer. Maybe they'll learn that when they
do some math, they don't get some better shooters, Like
maybe if you're gonna have that philosophy and run that offense,
maybe you should get people that know how to shoot.
You knocked threes down. But the air I didn't realize
(07:27):
they were. I would watch a couple of games. I'm like, damn,
they score a lot of points. They shoot the three good.
Oh no, they really don't, um eddie, They're they're not
good at threes. But also what I wanted to say
about that, it was funny how the announcers would say, Alabama,
we know they love to shoot the three, and I'm like, okay,
let's see some guys. Okay, let's see this. Their guys
shoots some straight up bricks. Dude, when you miss a shot,
(07:50):
there's a guy, there's the I don't want to skip ahead,
but there's the oral Roberts guy who missed that three pointer.
What a beautiful shot, almost beat Bama. That was I
thought that was in. I thought that was in. Oh
my go bazer head Oral. It was a beautiful shot. Okay,
and an oral or more head Oral. And then you
got the Alabama guys when they miss a shot, at
(08:10):
least you know it's a miss because you hear it
goes like this. Okay, that's an Alabama three point or dude,
it comes down like a brick, dude. I guess that's
where they came up with the term brick. When Alabama
shoots the ball, it literally sounds like a brick hitting.
The announcer even said, oh, that guy was going to
his left, so usually he's gonna lift miss it on
the left side of the basket. He goes it was
(08:32):
so bad it went on the right side of the basket.
I'm like, god, man, they were from three and from
the free throw line. U c l a from but
I know you're really upset, but aren't you at least
happy they made a run in the second, because at
halftime they look terrible. That was a beautiful run they made.
(08:54):
To make it at least fun and get your juices flown.
I mean, that was the most exciting game of yesterday.
Are you kidding me or not? If yesterday, yes, the
weekend you got oral was epic that But yes, I
was excited because I'm emotional, roller coached on my Damn,
I should have picked Gonzaga. I was second guessing myself,
but I drew out all the charts and I knew
(09:15):
that I was. If Bama wins yesterday, I'm the minus
three fifty favorite to win the one thousand dollars in
the eliminator. Really, yes, because I had Baylor, I had Gonzaga.
I hadn't used the number one seed. Yet everybody else
was gonna be like half the people were gonna have
to go Oregon State today. That was all they had left. Oh,
that's trouble. So they were just living on a player.
(09:35):
And so I had myself set up for a final
run and I couldn't God, But when he hit that three, hey,
I can't believe U c l A didn't foul because
then they said, the announcer goes, well, the U c
l A coach is a mathematician and he always follows, Well,
why didn't he? Calculators were busted? Coach, Coach, when he
(09:58):
didn't follow him, I was like, oh, my gosh, he
went against his method. And then the dude trains that
we really think that was gonna go in from half court?
No chance. But when he left his hand, I went, oh,
he got a great look. It always leaves their hands. No,
it looks straight on. It looks straight on. It was
a side shot. You maybe the replay coach, the freaking
(10:19):
shot that they played on TV was not It wasn't
straight on. You couldn't see the ball in the basket.
In the same shot, you can just see it was
right from his back. What ray did you see that?
I watched the game, but I don't know the camera
angles when he left his hand, did you say, oh,
that's gonna go in? Well, I was gonna talk about that.
Bay was watching it on her app, her betting app,
(10:40):
and she told me fifteen seconds before that it went
to overtime. I'm like, are you freaking kidding? I watched it,
but I already knew he was gonna make it because bagels,
it's over time, that's nothing. But net I screamed so
loud and jumped up. Your heads are gonna be PTSD
my kid baby Box to cry. He got so scared
(11:02):
he jumped in my wife's lot because I screamed so
freaking loud, and I mean, I was so into the game.
Kids got I had basketball shorts on my Jack had
his Alabama jersey. Nine minutes left in the game. Alabama struggling.
They were struggling so bad. I had Baby Box standing
next to me and we were bending our knees for
(11:24):
the free It's like we were like a chance. He
has been in his knees. He absolutely was. I need
video of this. Absolutely was. And whenever U c l
A would get it, I'd be going miss it, miss it,
and he go miss it, miss it, And then he'd
be like whenever you see sometimes you see all you
get the ball, but we take a break right now,
and he goes, all right, take a break, and he'd
sit down because he's gonna be going to basketball games
(11:46):
yelling miss it. Now, they're gonna get his ass kicks. Well,
that's what you want. You'll miss it at your opponent
absolutely didnt tell him. As an opponent coach, I did. No.
I said, we're cheering for the team and white. When
they get the ball, we gotta bend our knees, bend
our knees. We gotta make it. At least we have
the fans on our side for BAM. I mean, I
don't know if they're a COVID protocol. And there there
was a lot of people there. Now he's gonna go
to parties and tell people to bend their knees just
(12:08):
when they're shooting free throws. Like we were shooting free throws.
He was helping bend the knees. And that was the
fun part of it. It was kind of fun to
do that with them, and it was exciting and he
would clap when I would clap, and so with a
little you know, both my kids. So that was exciting.
But life her eyes, she was like she loved it.
She did. She into the games, not really like she'll
(12:29):
watch them and she knows I love March Madness, so
she'll watch them. But she thought it was pretty cool
when the kids were getting into it and clapping and
the kids would want to high five when something. When
I would clap, they would high five just like they're daddy.
But to give props to myself, I mean, great job.
And then that's what were you gonna say? No, I
was just gonna say I filled out my bracket with Baser.
So we're into the game, guys. I've never seen her
(12:50):
more into sports. All weekend, she was the oral game,
pins and needles. She loved it. And then last night
we were watching the Bama game together. I talk about genius.
Are you guys still in No? No, we're okay so
now and she's still in it. Probably not, No, she
like excited to watch. Still know we were all in
on Bama. Bama kept winning. We would win every one
of our bracket pools that nobody like, we're all busted,
(13:12):
We're all done here are at our household, so no
one even wants to watch, Like really, I don't really
want to watch. My son does a little bit. You
have side action, don't act like you. My side action
is gone. I'm down to thirty dollars, guys, that's my
side action. I'm done with march madness like past, Like
(13:34):
I lost my Calcata, I lost my um wait, you
didn't get anything from I haven't hit a damn square.
It's not gonna hit And that's that's another thing about squares.
So Alabama, you suck, okay, and over time you get
blown out. You don't even you hit that three and
you think U. C l A should be emotionally defeated.
But you guys come out in overtime and just suck.
(13:55):
But that's what you did. You suck, but in overtime
didn't do anything. It Then, with like thirty seconds to go,
you're down by you know, you're down by six and
you're shooting two pointers by nine. You're supposed to get
a nine nine, right, You're supposed to shoot a three
so we can get nine nine, But no, we're gonna
take it in for a layup to pat my damn stats.
(14:18):
At least if you're gonna get your ass kicked, shoot
the three pointers. Got the teams. Now that hustle more.
U c l A was out. I mean that one dude,
I don't I wish I learned some names during the game.
But the guy with the headband, the dude for U
c l A. That guy was aggressive. But then there
was also the little shorter guy who's the point guard.
He was quick to dude, since when did we see
(14:41):
U c l A. Is that quick of a team?
And now, coach, we never saw you c l A.
That's what it is there on the supposed to be
in this dumb tournament. That's why they're playing so hard.
To me, the team that is the five people that
are all working in Unison Gunzaga. They're the team and
the sling team has gotta be U c l A.
(15:02):
That team is see that. I shouldn't have said anything.
I haven't seen them play. You didn't watch the game.
I'll watch him, but you gotta watch the games. I mean,
it's amazing. The right Jinks nailed again. They were killing cubes.
Why would I watch the game? They killing them out?
There goes two of his final four from the sweet
six team. That's how hard it is still to pick
(15:23):
the final fo What did he say? He said, why
would you watch? Why would I watch you? It was
a blowout, coach, So you can know what you're talking about. No,
you're right right when it gets up to about and
you can turn it off. Okay, you're telling me Chuck,
Charles and All and Kenny and all those dudes are
they're not watching. They have to watch why because they
need to know what they're talking about. Listen to my wife, though,
(15:45):
I unless I have money on it, there's no reason
I'm watching a twenty five point blowout. And so she said,
can we watch King of Queens? And I said, yeah,
you're right, it's a blowout. Why would I watch this? So,
I mean, I have no reason to watch it. I'm
not watching anymore than if it's a blowout, if it
gets up to a twenty point. He didn't watch any
of it. Coach. He says he didn't watch Houston this year.
(16:07):
I'm not talking about when the game is twenty. I'm
I'm actually happier with myself. I finally got to see
Gonzaga play, So, I mean there was some There was
a good handful of teams. I've never even seen one possession.
Have you seen Baylor play half? I mean, but I
mean tonight, I'll be all invested and actually watch this
that I like to see that I'm don't even know.
(16:28):
I'm a math guy. You're not watching Baylor Arkansas? That
is gonna be awesome? Why, Coach, I mean, we have
a I have a vested interest to see if my
boss's team wins. Coach, you can look at the score
before you come into work, coach, that's gonna be an
exciting game. Another frustrating thing last night is Quinterly, the
point in the backup point guard for Alabama. He comes
(16:49):
in the game in the second half, like, oh, he's in.
He has a chance to, you know, really speed up
the game. He can change the pace. He comes at first,
three damn possessions, turnover, turnover to get the guy on
the m game, get him out of there. But supposedly
he's their spark plug point guard that's so fast, but
he can't handle all the ball. And he goes in
and he does that little scoop lay up and he
(17:10):
gets it rejected five times in a damn road. It
was rough, dude. I was I'm still very upset about
losing that. I actually didn't even know the money amount.
Oh it was a little over at that I'd be
real mad and maybe I made. But I did all
(17:32):
the charts, and I think that was still the smart
play was Alabama wins. I am sitting so pretty, so pretty,
you're saying all the math. No, I did the eight
charts like I was like, Okay, this guy's used. All
these guys have used this team, so tomorrow if they
move on, they're all gonna have to use Oregon State.
They're just living on a prayer there and then it's
gonna be head to head me a guy, Arkansas and Baylor.
(17:54):
I mean it's just so devast like, yeah, you can
do all that stuff right, but at the end of
the day, they didn't win. So you did do it right,
I know. But I had a flawless bracket plays, says Fredgeet.
So yeah, Alabama, I mean embarrassing. I hope they take
(18:15):
their scholarships away and practice free throws because it is
how can you be? Right? Do you could you hit
eleven from three? No free throw line? Absolutely we all could.
How hard is that? Well it's also under pressure coach,
no coach, there's no pressure. This guy thinks they're just
in the in the gym with no one there. That's
why you need Michigan State in these playoffs. They never
(18:36):
missed free throws. Is Thos got them done right. So
you think as good as a coach is that Bama guy?
Is that how that's allowed? That's tolerated? I mean a
Michigan State team would never go like that from the
free throw line. It's all about coaching a lot of
the time. Did you watch Michigan State this year? They're terrible,
We're terrible their free throws. Oh damnit it just but say,
(19:00):
Kansas fan, I've seen this this story over and over
again where Kansas can't hit free throws. When you it's amazing,
it's just amazing. You can't like the Spurs because you
think those guys just suck at free throws. Really, you
think they just they just can't hit free Yes, if
they're sixty percent on the year, they suck at free throws, yes, absolutely.
You if you are a athlete, a Division one athlete,
(19:22):
they don't practice the free throws. That's the problem, and
that's why they're sixty. They go through a practice and
don't practice the free throws. You think that the whole practice,
the two hour practice that they have not one drill,
is about free throws. When you are practicing on your own,
I'm saying, what are you practicing? Your practicing your three point,
your pregnant, your drive to the lane. They need to
(19:44):
sit there and shoot two hundred free throws and practice
over and over, they wouldn't have energy to practice. They
have a lot more energy than you think. It doesn't
take that much energy to shoot two hundred free throws.
You know how long two hundred free throws can take
you that long ago, it's about forty five minutes. Probably
(20:05):
there's only twenty four hours in the day. They practiced
two or three hours a day. Guys, come on, or
they should be the way they're shooting free throws like
NBA players, you gotta practice the free throws. That's just
all there is to it. Practice thirty five percent from three?
Why didn't they tell me that before the tournament and
the overtime you turned it off right, because I mean off,
(20:26):
you turn it off overtime. No, hell, no overtimes. When
hit overtime, you turn it off right. But it went
like when you hit that three, you were just like, oh,
good night, no chance. The house woke up. So they
were already awake. I mean the kids were. I mean
they were really tired because it was already nine pm
by the time we put them in bed. We usually
put him in bed at eight, So they were fussy
(20:46):
and upset and angry, and Dad was in a bad
mood and my oh god. It was so frustrating. And
my dad even called, he goes, what's up with you
and not liking free throws? Rubbing it in, rubbed salt
in the wound because he knew I had Ala Boney
also knows about your jinks. How when you need teams
to win, they don't make their free throw interesting. I
(21:07):
will make them though now. But oral, oral, we almost,
I mean, tell me about it. Did you think that
shot was in? Oh? Yeah, yeah, I mean he missed it.
By what, It's not about the shot, it's about the
play called great coach. The wheel route guy was wide
open for a beautiful three pointer. You couldn't have drawn
it up any better than that. He just missed the shot.
I mean it was amazing. They had two guys guarding
(21:29):
him and they couldn't stop him. Like they had two
guys concentrating on that amost guy and they couldn't even
get in front of him. But what a job by
our I mean the entire you talk about Arkansas being
the favorite, the better team, they had more skilled players,
and they had to fight the entire game. I mean
it wasn't easy for as a fan or a player.
The entire game for Arkansas until the very last shot
(21:51):
and you're like, oh, we finally won the game. Oh
your butt hole was pucker the entire it tells me.
I mean against Baylor, like you can I don't know
if you can play that kind of a game. I
don't know, I don't know. I mean Arkansas, Arkansas had
to fight so hard. I mean they might just get
blowed out of the gym by Baby. Arkansas had to
(22:11):
fight every game, every game they've been hanging on my show,
it showed they've been in deficits of fifteen points every game,
every game, Like that's not a recipe for winning. Eventually,
one of those deficits is just gonna stick unless they're
Unless they're the Kansas City Chiefs of last year? Were
they every playoff game they were down double dishits, came
back and won the Super Bowl? Damn right? But come on,
but thank you for the shout out, bub Eddie. How
(22:35):
are you feeling down? I'm spent. I've lost all my money.
This has been the worst March madness of my life.
As far as the gambling, well, it's about to be April.
We've got more money coming in. How much? But I
was the three hundred doll and it dropped to thirty
kind of week. How much did you lose in the Calcutta. Well,
(22:57):
I don't know. That's not true, that's not true. I'm
made money. I made about eighty dollars, so I only
lost about hundred dollars. Here's how dumb the Calcutt is.
I want Eddie to please tell us whoever wins it
how much they want. I'll tell you right now. Well,
well i'll tell you who's still in it though, and
and and how much they've won so far. So so
(23:18):
like right now, I think the best deal that anyone
got was u c l A. Right, So for USC,
probably USC was already a good team going in U
c l A was we we did it the night
that they won, so so there was nothing promising about
u c l A. So I think they went for
seventeen dollars. Okay, so they made some money on that.
So seventeen dollars and they're going to the Elite eight
(23:40):
like you're making a lot of cash. So those are
the teams you want to invest in Calcutta. It's not
the Gonzagas that you buy. Well, you do buy Gonzaga.
I mean Gonzaga went for like over three hundred dollars.
So you buy Gonzaga for over three hundred dollars. But coach,
if they win the whole thing, you win, uh nine,
already five dollars. But the people that paid three hundred
(24:02):
for Gonzaga, I guarantee, have paid hundreds for other teams.
So at the teams risk a thousand to win three hundreds.
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. That's why, that's
why you don't go as hard as some of those
people did. So USC, I'm reading it went for fifty bucks.
I don't know how you like? What round does? Like
each round get more money? Yes? So so if if
(24:22):
the team what I'll just tell you how goes. If
the team wins one game the first round, they win
zero point five percent of the poto point five of
the pot, which is usually around like fifteen dollars. Okay. Uh.
If you win two games, you win one point five
percent of the pot, which is fifty dollars. Three wins
a hundred and fifty dollars okay. So USC is given
(24:43):
a hundred dollar profits so far. Yeah, so USC was
the best deal that's going on right now. Oral Roberts
would have been freaking awesome. But every everyone else that's
in it was probably close to a hundred dollars or
more to be in it. Damn. So who's still left.
Baylor went for two hundred, Arkansas went for one, Houston
(25:04):
went for eighty. That's not bad, not bad deal. You're
making good money on that. Same person that had Arkansas got,
same person that whoever paid a five for Arkansas has
been watching their team down fifteen every rock Houston only
eighty bucks in USC went for fifty. But I'll tell
you how that works, and then who had Okay, So
(25:28):
what happens is when you when the bids starts early,
early in the round, like Houston was early. Yeah, Houston
was early, people are scared to bid high because there's
a lot of money left and there's a lot of
teams left, you don't know. So people are like settled
without Houston, all right, thirty five. Then you see USC
gets drawn towards the end, and one's like, oh crap,
I don't have a good time, I don't have any
(25:49):
good teams. I'll take Houston. No, I'll take I'll take USC.
I'll take USC. Then it goes up to a d
got it. Oregon State went for so that person made money.
That's a hell of a deal they've made probably I
guess bucks. But damn so you do, yeah, coach, to
answer your question, you do want to pick the teams
(26:10):
that aren't expected to go very But did you know
that now going into it? I guarantee you didn't because
I know you didn't have the Calcutta figured out when
you invested a hundred eighty dollars. I did. But did
you go for underdogs? Did you pay? Did? I went
from coach my all my teams were was with. My
first one was Drake, my second one little Syracuse, which
I made money on, Oklahoma State and Rutgers. Those are all.
(26:34):
Let me say this, then you're actually a great advantage.
I believe in Calcutta's because it's an upset city this year.
The poor man is going to win the most money
in the Calcutta opposed to the rich man. Whereas if
there's yeah, so that's that's how Calcutta works. It's but
for you right now that benefits you, and Coach, I'm out,
all my teams are out. I know you just picked
the wrong one. So how's the advantage for me, just
(26:58):
like I had it all plating. Now I was gonna
win the survivor. Well, here's the thing. And as much
as as much as we say it's upset central it is,
it's not. Well it's not it was. It could be.
The ones didn't get upset, but the other teams did
get upset. I mean you look at it. Illinois got upset. Yeah,
you have the one three in the Baylor Arkansas. Then
(27:19):
you have Houston, who's the two okay, yes, Oregon State
the twelve. That's a big one. Then you have Gonzaga
playing the what what seed was U c l A
hold on? And then Michigan playing what's seed number eleven? Okay?
So yeah, USC six. So there's a little bit, but
you still see the Usually it evens out that Cinderella
(27:42):
doesn't last, except unless you're you see damn l A
and you play Bama, who sucks. Hey, props l A
for having two teams in the turn first time ever.
U c l A and USC have been in the
lead eight together. Pretty cool. And I'm gonna just say this,
the Pact twelve, you're the best damn basketball conference there is.
Too bad we didn't see you play this year because
you play it at midnight. I mean, maybe watched one
of the games on sports who stays up that las? Like,
(28:04):
why can't we just tell me before the tournament that
the pack twelve is so damn good? I mean, and
they're not all in the tournament. They all right rank six, eleven, twelve, eight.
They didn't get a very good high I think because
I think all the people that do the ranking East
comes bias. Maybe it sure is, and they go to
bed early. So hey, biggy East. They're real good, grate
(28:25):
and put up quite the fight against Gonzaga. Gonzaga is
so good. Gonzaga is so good. That's why, Like, do
you agree with me Gonzaga? I mean the way they
work together? Do I agree with you? That? There? They
look amazingly? I mean like look at Alabama last night.
Were they pretty to watch? Or it was a lot
(28:45):
of herkey jerky Okay we got to home. They were
pretty to watch unless you're like building houses with brick.
When you watch Gonzaga, what did it sound like when
alabam would shoot every single time? And now what about
when Gonzaga shoots? Oh nothing? But then their passes are
crisp they just float. You can always. I mean as
(29:05):
a basketball player, I never really got was able to float.
Oh you were a basketball player. Coach, Yes, coach all
the time. No coach shut it down in high school.
But anyways, I never had that ability to float. But
there are guys for Gonzaga. I mean, they don't even
look like they're playing that hard, but you just have
that glide, just like LaMelo, He's one of the best
guys that just floats. But the whole team of Gonzaga,
(29:28):
their flow and everything. I love it. I love how
they play the game about So is that your champ? Coach,
I gotta see Baylor. I really haven't seen him seen
Baylor play so that. I mean you would say, right,
I would say Baylor. I think. I think there's way
more pressure on them. Yeah, they are the better team.
They have the most pressure, They have the most the
most pressure out of everyone. Enough, because they haven't lost
(29:50):
one single game. I mean that's tough, that's tough. I
mean they've made it this far without losing a game.
That's amazing. But again, they haven't played big, big, big,
big competition. I mean, yeah, they're playing decent teams, but
I mean, again, they are so good. If they get
on there with Baylor. If it's Baylor Gonzaga, I think
(30:11):
Baylor wins it, and I mean, I think that's really
how it's gonna be. And I say it's Gonzaga because
they can shoot better. I'm excited to see Gonzaga against
USC because that damn link those but everybody USC, no, no,
USC is all twelve feet tall guys that have arms
that reached the freaking top of the arena Michigan. Have
(30:32):
you seen us? Have you seen basketball players in general?
Guys us USC is exceptionally tall. Every guy you're seeing.
The giraffe in Arkansas, he doesn't play because he's terrible.
I tried to play him at one time and they
got off the court real quick. I do love that
about Muscleman. You see a seven six dude, I don't
(30:53):
know how dull he is. I'm just making that number up,
But you see a giraffe, dude, You're just like, I
have to play him. There's no way I can let
us seven foot dude sit on my bench in the
middle of this tournament. And he doesn't. He's just like,
sit yours down. We don't need to. You suck like
you can't move, You're so slow. Like I mean, as
a coach, I would be like, look, I have to
(31:13):
I just can't. I can't let that dude just sit there.
So what do you think? Oh, I think it's Gonzaka.
But I'm excited to see them play USC because no,
that zone of USC and the length of those damn
brothers and then the white guy, I mean they what's
his name? What is his name? Beheim? No, no, guys,
(31:40):
stop it. You can't put a hole. You can't put
the pressure of winning on a one dude. I mean
he wasn't open for one second the whole game. Buddy
bayhim was the best since Buddy Beyheim just had no
chance to help that team out. Hang up and listen.
I mean USC six ten six nine seven ft ft
(32:01):
six eleven. That is ridiculous. That doesn't equate twoins coach
and spud Web could dribble under him and lay it up. Coach,
spud Web could beat Shock and I'll hang up and
list after way right on, Aunt Canadian Elephant coach. Hey,
but agree with me. It was a good weekend of basketball.
It was fun until it was really excited over. It
(32:25):
was great. I get your licking your wounds. But good God,
because let's be real, wasn't it. Let's be real. I
probably should have been out. I probably should have been
out of the eliminator because I had Arkansas against or
coach all your charting wasn't very good. My charting, I
never believe it. I charted the whole thing, but then
I lost. Okay, so screw the chart, coach the chart.
I mean I felt like when I was doing the charts,
(32:46):
I felt like I felt like Bryson DJ carry the
one well, depending on what what chart it was, you
carry this arrow over here, this area. And I was like, man,
this is what Bryson feels like when he's lining up
a put. And then, so is there any chance for
anyone else in this championship? In your eyes? Any anyone else?
(33:06):
I mean, no, Michigan is bad. I mean they maybe
will be there, as I am shocked at how well
Michigan has done because I loved Michigan. And then with
the last five games this season, I think they lost
three of them, and I was like, well, what the
hell happened to them? And then Livers gets hurt foot injury,
(33:27):
and I'm like, well, he's one of their main cock.
They're gonna suck and here they go. There's rolling right along. Yeah,
but I think the three pointers gonna. Gonzaga could blow
them off the court. Really, the three pointer is a
huge difference. Gonzaga can do it, Michigan can't. U C.
L A really can't do it at all either. So
I mean that's that's why I go with Gonzaga. I
gotta see about Arkansas. Arkansas is a threat, but I
(33:48):
feel like they just get cleaned out by Baylor tonight.
They have to You can't be down ten games in
a row and then just it. They have to be
worn out. They have to be absolutely like Oral Roberts
worked them for however many minutes a basketball game is
I just don't. I mean, Baylor is so confident in Arkansas.
It's like, oh my gosh, I've never coached. Imagine being
(34:10):
at the casino for three hours, you've been losing your ass,
and then my weekend that your Arkansas and then at
the last second you won. Though, But that's different. So
did you start live betting and you were Now that
we really got me was the dogs coach, We really
got me. I think Alabama got me. That was the
last straw for sure. So you were live betting, I mean,
(34:30):
coach that when they were down, I mean, I'm just pounding.
I'm just pushing dollars fifty. I mean I'm at one
point I was like, in the game, did you see
there to push? There was nothing. I saw the plus six.
I saw the Arkansas, you know, like the plus in there.
I saw the Arkansas plus four. I mean Alabama plus four.
(34:50):
I'm like, it's got to be closer than four. So
you were just wanting them to miss that three. Coach.
When they went to overtime, I'm like, that's exciting to
see and every the money right there. That was the
three point. It was the worst thing ever for it was.
But I mean so we had the option opposite reactions.
When he hit the three. I got excited because again
we were with a family, were all watching it, so
(35:12):
everyone got excited, and then I was like, oh crap,
my bet. But then but it's not over at that point.
I'm just like, when they hit a three like that,
you expect in overtime that they're gonna roll because you
don't think the other team is gonna be the moral
lie correct Because I even told my boys, like I
think with a minute left, you see, LA had their
(35:32):
arms right each other, like jumping up. And I'm like
watching boys watching they're celebrating a little too early. Watch
these guys. Sure enough, homeboy hits the three. We're going
over time. And I said, what did I tell you? U?
C l A was celebrating just a little early. Weren't there?
And they can't shoved in your face like dad. They
won by twelve, and then then the sun rose again
and you saw it. You see, I mean, I get
(35:55):
you with the plus four and plus five. That was attractive.
But what we've learned in gambling, nothing has to happened.
You said, Alabama, that has to have nothing has to happen.
I was feeling it. That's why I was putting the money.
But you did plus four and plus five? Was that
a little bit after halftime because at the half of it,
I mean you probably got plus eight. No, it was
it was never that good. The line was never that
(36:17):
good because Alabama was a favorite by seven. I think
they were the second biggest favorite on the card yesterday.
That's why another reason I thought, oh you know, that's
a good pick on my eliminator. Florida State wipe me out.
Come on, guys, you got I mean, it just never
got They never got closer and closer, it got further away,
and it was just like it was brutal. Dude, the
whole day was bad for me. But but did you
(36:40):
live bet? I'm curious you live at Florida State. They
looked horrible the whole game. So my wife is in
another league with all my family from with you watching
the Sorry coach, if you live bet these games. The
Michigan game was obvious. Michigan was gonna win the game.
There was never a doubt. There was never knee them
(37:00):
to win the game. Coach. I needn't lose by ten,
that's it. At one point, I got him a plus
twelve plus twelve, give me a hundred plus twelve. This
is a freaking NC double turn, coach. They just didn't
look good. That's my thing. If you're live betting. What
Eddie is live betting, though, is who he thinks he's
gonna win the game at the beginning of the game,
(37:22):
and so they get down. He's like, well, if I
already thought they were gonna win the game at the beginning,
they're obviously gonna come back. I don't think he's thinking,
because when you watch when coaches live betting, he's betting
against himself. Earlier, he's like, that guy didn't know what
he's talking about. I will bet against that guy that
I will know. Going into the game, he thought Florida
State was going to win. Okay, So he watches the
(37:43):
game and he's stuck with that point. He was like, Wow,
they're gonna win the game, but you're giving me twelve points. Okay.
When if you're watching that game, Florida State didn't belong
on the same court as Michigan. Like it was just over.
It was an absolute domination slaughterhouse. They could have called
it a half time. I figured they hit a couple
of threes and get it close and that's it, you know,
(38:04):
and then daddy wins. I mean you you you started
seeing like with eight minutes ago, in the first half,
Florida State's shoulders started sagg in. They started getting frowns
on their face, like dangn these guys are really good.
Then coming out of half time, oh boy, didn't get
any better, and you kept betting. I will say this
for Eddie though, with your live bets, the Arkansas are
not not the Arkansas the last game last night Alabama.
(38:26):
It was close right because I mean that wasn't the
last game though, Yeah, it was a later game. I
will see this with I want on that one. I
got some money back. I was like Jesus, guys, for
the most part, if you live bet, it's gonna be close. Correct.
If you bet a game before it starts, there's the
(38:47):
chance you could lose by twenty points. I know what
you're talking. I feel like when you live bet, at
least you're going to have a close bet, unless you're
Eddie and you bet on the team that's getting their
ass kicks. What I do, that's usually that's usually what
I do. I never bet with basketball. It's one of
the person that's winning. I never live bet that. I
was as well. Here's the thing with live betting. You're
(39:09):
getting a very good feel of the game. If teams
are sting the ball. I mean you really are so
And I feel like the beauty of live betting, which
these gambling sites haven't realized it. You're gonna be in there.
I don't know why anybody nowadays bets a game before
it and let them let the ball t up. At
least We're in a stadium with a hundred people. That mean,
who knows what could happen. I mean the beauty of
live betting. Take advantage of it because it's way better
(39:31):
than betting it before. Did you live bet the Syracuse
Houston game? But I did? Yeah, of course? And did
you bet Syracuse? Of course? Oh my god, of course
I didn't. Like I watched that game in Syracuse had
no shot? They had no shot. Did you realize that
there was like two minutes left in the game in Syracuse?
Couldn't they couldn't score? To say that, but that's what
(39:53):
I'm saying. But you live betted them because a live
bet on Syracuse when you're watching that game and they
can't even get open, It's true, they could not get open.
I mean usually what you see in a lot of
these games is like, uh, even like in m Villanova
Baylor for example, Like Villanova looked good going in the half.
So that's a live bet where you're like, obviously they're
(40:15):
not gonna win this stupid game. So you put it
all on Baylor and they come back and they beat him.
You know, like that's like that was a smart bet.
That's my strategy most of the time because usually you
have a team that's way better than a team that's
getting there, that's kicking their ass, so you live bet them.
In this case, I just I thought Florida State was
gonna be a lot better. I thought they would come back.
I thought they would make it a closer game. I
(40:36):
didn't think they would come back and win the game.
I'm not live betting money lines. I'm just I'm getting
the deal with all the plus I'm getting points. Every
single time they're there, they get scored on. Daddy gets
more points, and I put more money on it and
I lost. And you notice how they kept scoring so
they never stopped him on defense, but you kept betting
(40:57):
on them, like you understand you had to get stops
to be able to come. Yeah, but I bet more
on them because to me, it's like more of a deal.
It's more of a deal, like you're giving me three
more points. Now, let's go betting sides, giving Eddie a bargain.
Do you think I go right now? It's a two
for bogo one. How do you think I got to
(41:22):
That's the recreational idiot right there. What about you? How
much do you lose recreational idiot. You're losing too. I
lost twenty bucks on that. How and what your squares?
I'm losing on that? To me, here's the thing. I'm
gonna tell you something. And the squares are just pissing
me off because that's it's just dumb. We just stop
(41:43):
doing it. No, that's so great. No, it's so great
because here's the thing. It doesn't matter until the last minute,
right there's halftime. It's it's the last resort of the game,
like when everything else that you've lost the bet, you've
lost all that, at least sucking button over time. That's
where at least got the square. But then they pull
up and shoot a two pointer when they don't even
(42:04):
shoot two pointers the whole damn game. What's their coach's philosophy? Threes,
free throws, get to the hoop, and they pull up
for a two, like a ten foot jump shot like that.
That goes against your coach's philosophy. And you could have
a square, but no, we're gonna shoot it two even
though we're down twelve. A coach that's all about his philosophy.
Then in the most important part of the game, he
(42:25):
doesn't foul and he lets them shoot a three pointer,
Like I thought that was your philosophy. Guys, when you
have a philosophy, for the love of God, stick to it.
And then the squares, like you're down thirteen with three
seconds ago, no need to foul, no need to foul,
and you foul and they make both free throws and
you lose the damn square because you had the square
up until that. Well, yeah, just there's been numerous games
(42:46):
where I have the square and there's less than three
seconds and they foul and it's like, guys, you're down
fourteen points. You're not gonna win the game. Just let
the clock run out. But for the most part, having
these games been lows. I mean, there's it doesn't matter
about low scoring. I don't care about over unders. I'm
talking about square. No, he's just over. He's only over
(43:10):
these games you don't touch over And he had a
bad weekend. I had a bad weekend. Jimmy Garoppolo had
a bad weekend. Dude. San Francisco said, look, we're gonna
keep you. They basically told him, you're on your way
out of here. Bud Boo boo. They traded up to
number three spot because they're gonna draft a quarterback. They
traded with Miami and said, hey, guys, we want to
come up and get one of those quarterbacks that's available.
(43:31):
Who would they be looking at? That's the fields we
don't know, because you know, Trevor Lawrence is going number one,
and then the Jets, who are they going to take
number two? Is it gonna be Zack Wilson, Is it
gonna be Trey Lance, is gonna be justin Fields? Is
it gonna be really get another quarterback back Jones? You
don't know, but what it's like to draft a good quarterback.
(43:51):
But San Francisco said, man, we like numerous quarterback Is
what they're saying to the public is there are We
don't care who the yet draft. We're gonna be happy
with whoever we get at number three because we love
the quarterbacks coming out. So that tells Jimmy Garoppolo, hey,
you're there. You're you're in the Alex Smith role that
(44:11):
Kansas City had Alex Smith. You're gonna groom. You're gonna
groom somebody, and then next year you're gonna be on
your way out. But they still came out and use
the term groom. Jimmy Garoppolo's our guy, you guy. It
is so bad and many bad connotations. Now, coach, what
do you mean by groom? Coach? He's gonna show him
(44:31):
the ropes, teach him how to be able to and stuff.
I'm a dog, will you groom me? Hey? That's from
the what is that? Coach? And the Big You're gonna
squeeze my Titto Foker. You're gonna milk mes No, no, no,
nonch on the show. All right, I didn't know. I
(44:56):
was like, what so, yeah, So I don't know who
San Francisco is going to get. But here's an interesting
tweet from Mike Tannenbaum. An interesting fact related to yesterday's trades.
Over the last ten years, the qbs that were traded
up for in the top three picks include r G three,
Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, Mitchell Trobiski, and Sam Donald. So
(45:19):
every quarterback that has been traded up to get in
the top three has been kind of crap. Uh. Jared Goff,
he's already he already got traded in. The Rams already
said we're done with you. But he's not crap. He's
not crap. He didn't go to a Super Bowl. But
they decided, Hey, we're moving on from you. We traded
up to get you, and we're already done with you.
We want Matthew Stafford. So yeah, forty Niners fans. Oh,
(45:40):
that's good, that's good. I can't wait. Have you talked
to kid about this? I haven't talked to kids, but
my brother called and he's excited. He's like, I feel
like you know he does. He doesn't want your brother
should stop with the Niners already. I know he was
a fan because of Joe mont I was to trust me.
Look when we were as you mean, me and you're
(46:00):
batter were the same age, and we grew up in
the rinks together, and we both loved Joe Montana. We
loved that forty Niner team with Jerry Rice and John
Taylor and Jon Rathman and Ronnie Lott and coach. We
knew we that was our team. Loved it. But guess what,
they're gone. There's non play anymore. He should move on
(46:21):
to a better team, the freaking Dallas Cowboys. Baby, not
a Cowboys. It's so stupid. Coach. Look, look, we were
all kids and we love the Niners. I get it.
You were dominant. That's what I was wondering, I don't
know how my dif were dominant. Did my brother like
the Niners before no teeth, Keith, or did he like
them because they were winning when we were kids, winning
because you were kids. Everyone loved the Niners. I was
(46:43):
the biggest for the Niner fan in the world. And
then when Montana went to the Chiefs, I was like,
I don't like Steve Young, I don't like that storyline.
I'm gonna go with the Chiefs. And then Montana retired,
and then you know what, I'm like, I just gotta
I gotta go to my roots, gotta be a Cowboys fan.
It's time batter Box stops it. When it stops with
the Niners. I see your point, because everybody was a
(47:05):
huge Chicago Bulls fan because of Michael Jordan, I mean
Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen. They were dominant, so everybody loved him.
Everybody wanted to be like Mike. And then once Mike
left the NBA, I realized, Man, the San Antonio Spurs
are right here, and it's kind of cool with David
Robinson and they got Tim Duncan, and then I went
to work for the organization. I was like, man, I'm
(47:25):
a Spurs fan. Spurs go. And then did you see
LaMarcus Aldridge super team over? What do you think of this?
I mean, good for them? I mean Brooklyn don't roll.
Good for them. I don't know, La La land Lebron.
It is time to you got a super team somewhere
(47:45):
else because the Brooklyn Nets just did it better than you.
They just played your own game and beat you at it.
They'll just play in the championship. Coach, Oh they will.
And dude, the Nets are unbelievable. I mean it'll be
It'll mean Nets Lakers every year in the in the lake.
Chris can keep it up, I don't know, getting healthy,
like Dave, Lakers might not even make the playoffs. They're
gonna make the playoffs. Let's calm down on that. Well, yes,
(48:08):
I just I'm like, I guess it's cool because it's
within the rules, but it's the dumbest they have the most.
Look at the Pistons. Name a Piston, Jeremiah ben Wallace,
Chauncey Billups. Is that what you're gonna? I mean, Dennis Rodman,
(48:29):
there we go, Okay, But like LaMarcus ads all the
reports where he's going to the heat. He's going to
the heat. He's going to the heat. And then it
comes out I'm gonna go to the next It's pretty crazy.
And who's their coach again, Nash? Yeah, so stupid it
says stupid. I don't know coach. I mean again, I
don't think LaMarcus Aldridges is as good as he once was.
(48:53):
Still he's still damn good. I understand he's damn good.
But again to put them he's got a big name. Yes,
I don't think he's a superstar. No, but he can
average twelve thirteen points. Get you know he doesn't really
Is he gonna be a bench player? Yeah, he ain't started.
I would say I would think he's a bench players,
which makes the team really stacked the bench Dryant Tree, Yeah,
(49:20):
that's what I'm saying, dude, hard and during Blake Griffin,
LaMarcus Aldridge and Joe Harris, I mean they're the name
embid going there too. What's happening? It's the all name team,
like they have all the names, doesn't equal to it?
Did it feel cheap? When if the Marcus Aldridge wins
(49:41):
a ring this year, is it like, oh that's kind
of cheap? Cheap? It's I mean, that's how it works.
He's still got the ring and in twenty years he's
gonna be like, I'm an NBA champion, but I'm just like, man,
it seems so weak. But for the Spurs to who
cares like they're winning games, they're playing well, I don't.
I think, who What did the Spurs get out of it? Nothing?
He just left, bought him out. We we didn't have
to pay. We didn't have to pay the full amount
(50:02):
of his contract. We got a discount, which I don't
understand for next year. I guess what I don't understand
is the buyout. Like, Okay, you don't want to you
don't want him on your team, so you get a
little bit of a discount. So you're just gonna let
him walk for free. You're gonna give him nine million
dollars to walk away. It just said it's till to
go home, and like you can't. That's the contract. No, No,
(50:24):
you can tell him to go home and you can
just pay him. But instead you're gonna save a million
dollars and one million I think it's gonna be more
than that, and whatever team they want. It's just's so weird.
It feels cheap, it feels gross. And the Nets, I
don't know how that anybody in the East is gonna
beat him. I don't know they're not getting beat. I'm
(50:44):
telling you that these are super teams. This is how
it is. Here we go who they're absolutely the favorites
in Vegas, absolute and geared up for this because it
just happened. But no, they're geared up. They already have
their are probably hey this morning their meeting. Have we've
done the East Coolst Division of the NBA? Have you
(51:07):
heard what's happening with the basketball nets? I hear that
the elders with the Nets, you win a hundred, you
put down a hundred, two times your money, you win
two hundred. But they're the only one. They're the odds
on favorite, right you double your money? Coach? Yeah? Well,
I mean, yeah, what's the Lakers? Lakers are four to one,
so four times your money and that's are two times
your money. That's a big favorite. I love the Nets
(51:29):
is two times your money. And I think James Harden
is right when he says he is the m v P. Yeah,
because that was an episode he titled the episode James Harden,
No No, I'm pretty sure. They asked James Harden what
he thinks about him being in the m v P race,
and he said, I am the MVP, and I have
to agree with I mean, I think you have to
say that. And before we go, I am the MVP.
(51:52):
Let me pray email coaches are your hands? Coaches? Thanks
for talking about top Shot. I made the cut on
the last drop and I got a pack and I
sold a moment for six d alright, lunch, how much
have you made from top Shot? Man? What i'd picture proof?
Should have this been worth that much? And he got
(52:14):
a moment? What was his moment? Emmanuel quickly and a
jump shot for six hundred seventy five dollars? And what
have you? How much money have you made man, I've
made nothing. I haven't been able to get I have
not been able to make the cut for a pack.
How much have you spent on top Shots? Yeah, I've
tried to. I had to have some moments for the drops.
(52:36):
Do you get it? No, I don't understand. Do you
understand why someone paid six hundred sent five for this?
I know, yeah, I do Why because they're gonna turn
it over. They can try to turn it over. That's
their goal. No, no, no, I don't think you buy
it for six hundred seventy five to turn it over
at some point like over, at some point they're gonna
think that they can turn it over for I mean,
(52:58):
I am just so this dude, Eric, Eric, congratulations, I
can't believe you've got I mean, that's just that's disgusting.
Then I get a bunch of emails. Hold on, let's
see from uh Omar about fifteen minutes from the game starting,
and I've not received my bracket. I hope you get
this attached to the screenshot of my payment. Guys, here
we go go to what did you do with the money? No, no, no,
(53:21):
I bought a moment don't worry Omar. We put it
in the from I sent Lunchbox Venmo payment to be
the Sore Losers bracket, but never responded with a link
or password to get in. Send a message on Venmo
to get Lunchbox, but he always actually like he's too
busy for anything he does. Can I get my money

ripped me off my bucks? I'll hang up and listen

to address everybody that says they did not get an email,
got a damn email, you just thought it was spam

paid me got it. And I'm sorry you didn't get it,
or you don't know how to look at I don't know,

(58:51):
up losing money because people are gonna just say they
didn't get it, and they're already in Oh this sucks.
We're never doing this again. Uh, that's why we don't
do this. We shouldn't do it.
We are losers. There's what up, everybody? I am lunchbox.
I know the most about sports, so I'll give you
the sports facts, my sports opinions because I'm pretty much
a sports genius. What's up, everyone, I'm Eddie and I
know the least about the sports. But I'm your average
sports fan, your sports watcher. Don't know the who's who,
(00:32):
don't know the what's what, y'all? It is says. I'm
from the north of an alpha male. I live currently
on the west side of Nashville. We got heavy rain
over the weekend, no flooding. Luckily we were on the bluff.
I was also out of town anyways, on the weekends.
I primarily shotgun Hard Seltzer strictly on the weekends. Guys,
over to you and let me go ahead and hit it. Really,
(00:56):
that wasn't what I was gonna start with. The game, Alabama,
what what in the wrong with you? Like? What in
the hell is wrong with it? I mean, would you
say that? Let me tell you, I have never seen,
I have never seen a more pathetic effort than what
Alabama showed last night. Okay, no, you're wrong on that.
(01:19):
I'm wrong. They were down eleven that was some heart
in the second half. Coach, I hadem winning it at
all the overtime because they did. They did shoot a
buzzer beater from half court, coach to tie the game
and get overtime. No, no, no, no, no. They should
have never been in that position. There's this thing called
free throws where no one is guarding you. They're called
(01:42):
free because they are basically three points they are giving you.
Let's see you hit those. Let me see you hit
ten in the in the tournament. Let me see you
that's what you. You came on here and said that
all those percentages don't mean anything because they get punkered.
You go up there, it's the big dance, you get puckered.
It's not the same scenario. Coaches shooting free throws in
(02:03):
the backyard. Come on it, absolutely U c l A
had no problem, no problem, had nothing to lose. Coach
their first four teams and they're supposed to be there. Stop.
Everybody has something to lose because they are playing in
the game, so they have a chance to lose. This
is I mean, you want to talk about, see, oh
we shoot the ball from three Their coaches philosophy threes,
(02:25):
free throws and get to the rim. Well, you might
want to work on your philosophy because you need to
take some scholarships away. Because they were eleven of twenty
six from the free throw line. How the hell are
you a Division one basketball team and you shoot eleven
of twenty six from the free throw line. So their
(02:46):
philosophy is three pointers, free throws, and attack the rim.
That's it interesting. And they weren't making this when they attacked.
That's when they scored. They were vicious to the rim.
And I'm sorry, I've watched Alabama and I guess I
didn't realize they sucked so bad at three. I understood
they took a lot of threes, but they do. They
(03:07):
do so even the halftime guys, Charles and all them go,
oh they live and die by the three. They do.
But man, they're they're gonna die a lot of deaths
because they're not good at three. No, they're not. Because
in the game they showed it. They said, look on
the year, Alabama is shooting thirty five percent from three,
which ranks guess where in the n C Double A.
(03:28):
And they the coach He's gotta throwback code apparently wears
this old time thing as a tribute to Alabama. They go,
he's a stats guy. He likes the status tacher. He's
a math guy. But math teacher, you need those three points.
You don't need to be a math genius to know
that when you get free thos, you gotta make the
(03:48):
damn thing go. He's so good at math. Sometimes he'll
just throw that out the window and say, I like
the three Well, listen, if you're not making him, go
with the math and don't shoot anymore of No, you
don't even need to shoot, just learned how to shoot
free throws. How I mean. No, lunch Box was a
huge Alabama fan. No, I had him in a bet.
I had him in my eliminating I started gambling. No,
(04:10):
I had him in my listenm we were down. We
were We started with seventy two people. We were down
to seven, seven, the elite seven, and all I had
to do I needed Bama to win that Gonzaga save
for Tuesday. Tuesday. You're not gonna get to Tuesday, Coach.
(04:35):
That's what happened. I don't save coach, Yes, you do,
because I was gonna be the only one with Gonzaga
and everyone VI coach. It's the name of the game, coach,
you know how great you'd have been feeling with Gonzaga.
They won by a hundred. Hey, I think we saw
our national champion. Whoa Gonzaga is a team that's the
first time. Hey, oh no, I mean I'm serious the
(05:00):
road to victory. But I've always said this, whenever I
am cheering for a team, it's like they cannot hit
free throws and the other team doesn't miss. I mean
U c l A guys sixty percent on the ear
nothing but Neett, nothing but Neette. Alabama guy eight percent
on the ear brick. But I mean U c l
A did as well. They had the front end of
the one and one. That dude missed it. I mean
(05:21):
there were free throws get missed late in the game.
If you're a kid right now in your backyard practice,
you don't want to do it. You're on TikTok, maybe
you got a girl over, you're playing with your brother. Guys,
just go practice some free throws because it's gonna come
up clutch and march madness. Yes, A j my friend
who was a baller, and when we were kids, he
would he would shoot a hundred free throws before he
went inside. When he was done playing basketball, he would
(05:42):
practice his other shots. Then he would do a hundred
free throws. Why because they're important. They win nobody, nobody.
He wasn't tall enough. Eddie does a hundred free throws
on two K. I'm a one percent free throw shooting
in two K. One that's no. The free throws are
pretty easy on two Well, I coach, I just played
(06:03):
all weekend with my nephew. That thing rattles a little bit.
Who did you play with? We do all SI, I'm
jo honest, he's not all Stars, but it isn't really good.
I mean, but but here I will agree with Lunch.
I was frustrated. Dude, Me and be at Bay didn't
care about our back at bracket was busted except for
one thing. If Bama won it all, we pretty much
(06:24):
could win every pool. But yeah, ours went all the
wayside as well, it was fun. At least they went
to overtime, so they didn't look good at all. It
was a miracle they got to over guys. When they
went to overtime, I thought, okay, like Alabama Stars getting ahead,
and I'm like, yeah, here we go. Well they start
u c L a star player was out and then
U c l A takes the big lead, and coming
out of half, Alabama comes storming back. I'm like, all right, now,
(06:46):
Alabama's gonna roll d Alabama out of the halftime role tied.
That team was fierce, bro. I've never seen a team
go after a basket like it's a hunk of like
U like it's a beautyful woman. Alabama went after that
(07:06):
basket like it was a ten at the bar coach
and I was impressed by that. But yeah, get away
from the three pointer. Maybe they'll learn that when they
do some math, they don't get some better shooters, Like
maybe if you're gonna have that philosophy and run that offense,
maybe you should get people that know how to shoot.
You knocked threes down. But the air I didn't realize
(07:27):
they were. I would watch a couple of games. I'm like, damn,
they score a lot of points. They shoot the three good.
Oh no, they really don't, um eddie, They're they're not
good at threes. But also what I wanted to say
about that, it was funny how the announcers would say, Alabama,
we know they love to shoot the three, and I'm like, okay,
let's see some guys. Okay, let's see this. Their guys
shoots some straight up bricks. Dude, when you miss a shot,
(07:50):
there's a guy, there's the I don't want to skip ahead,
but there's the oral Roberts guy who missed that three pointer.
What a beautiful shot, almost beat Bama. That was I
thought that was in. I thought that was in. Oh
my go bazer head Oral. It was a beautiful shot. Okay,
and an oral or more head Oral. And then you
got the Alabama guys when they miss a shot, at
(08:10):
least you know it's a miss because you hear it
goes like this. Okay, that's an Alabama three point or dude,
it comes down like a brick, dude. I guess that's
where they came up with the term brick. When Alabama
shoots the ball, it literally sounds like a brick hitting.
The announcer even said, oh, that guy was going to
his left, so usually he's gonna lift miss it on
the left side of the basket. He goes it was
(08:32):
so bad it went on the right side of the basket.
I'm like, god, man, they were from three and from
the free throw line. U c l a from but
I know you're really upset, but aren't you at least
happy they made a run in the second, because at
halftime they look terrible. That was a beautiful run they made.
(08:54):
To make it at least fun and get your juices flown.
I mean, that was the most exciting game of yesterday.
Are you kidding me or not? If yesterday, yes, the
weekend you got oral was epic that But yes, I
was excited because I'm emotional, roller coached on my Damn,
I should have picked Gonzaga. I was second guessing myself,
but I drew out all the charts and I knew
(09:15):
that I was. If Bama wins yesterday, I'm the minus
three fifty favorite to win the one thousand dollars in
the eliminator. Really, yes, because I had Baylor, I had Gonzaga.
I hadn't used the number one seed. Yet everybody else
was gonna be like half the people were gonna have
to go Oregon State today. That was all they had left. Oh,
that's trouble. So they were just living on a player.
(09:35):
And so I had myself set up for a final
run and I couldn't God, But when he hit that three, hey,
I can't believe U c l A didn't foul because
then they said, the announcer goes, well, the U c
l A coach is a mathematician and he always follows, Well,
why didn't he? Calculators were busted? Coach, Coach, when he
(09:58):
didn't follow him, I was like, oh, my gosh, he
went against his method. And then the dude trains that
we really think that was gonna go in from half court?
No chance. But when he left his hand, I went, oh,
he got a great look. It always leaves their hands. No,
it looks straight on. It looks straight on. It was
a side shot. You maybe the replay coach, the freaking
(10:19):
shot that they played on TV was not It wasn't
straight on. You couldn't see the ball in the basket.
In the same shot, you can just see it was
right from his back. What ray did you see that?
I watched the game, but I don't know the camera
angles when he left his hand, did you say, oh,
that's gonna go in? Well, I was gonna talk about that.
Bay was watching it on her app, her betting app,
(10:40):
and she told me fifteen seconds before that it went
to overtime. I'm like, are you freaking kidding? I watched it,
but I already knew he was gonna make it because bagels,
it's over time, that's nothing. But net I screamed so
loud and jumped up. Your heads are gonna be PTSD
my kid baby Box to cry. He got so scared
(11:02):
he jumped in my wife's lot because I screamed so
freaking loud, and I mean, I was so into the game.
Kids got I had basketball shorts on my Jack had
his Alabama jersey. Nine minutes left in the game. Alabama struggling.
They were struggling so bad. I had Baby Box standing
next to me and we were bending our knees for
(11:24):
the free It's like we were like a chance. He
has been in his knees. He absolutely was. I need
video of this. Absolutely was. And whenever U c l
A would get it, I'd be going miss it, miss it,
and he go miss it, miss it, And then he'd
be like whenever you see sometimes you see all you
get the ball, but we take a break right now,
and he goes, all right, take a break, and he'd
sit down because he's gonna be going to basketball games
(11:46):
yelling miss it. Now, they're gonna get his ass kicks. Well,
that's what you want. You'll miss it at your opponent
absolutely didnt tell him. As an opponent coach, I did. No.
I said, we're cheering for the team and white. When
they get the ball, we gotta bend our knees, bend
our knees. We gotta make it. At least we have
the fans on our side for BAM. I mean, I
don't know if they're a COVID protocol. And there there
was a lot of people there. Now he's gonna go
to parties and tell people to bend their knees just
(12:08):
when they're shooting free throws. Like we were shooting free throws.
He was helping bend the knees. And that was the
fun part of it. It was kind of fun to
do that with them, and it was exciting and he
would clap when I would clap, and so with a
little you know, both my kids. So that was exciting.
But life her eyes, she was like she loved it.
She did. She into the games, not really like she'll
(12:29):
watch them and she knows I love March Madness, so
she'll watch them. But she thought it was pretty cool
when the kids were getting into it and clapping and
the kids would want to high five when something. When
I would clap, they would high five just like they're daddy.
But to give props to myself, I mean, great job.
And then that's what were you gonna say? No, I
was just gonna say I filled out my bracket with Baser.
So we're into the game, guys. I've never seen her
(12:50):
more into sports. All weekend, she was the oral game,
pins and needles. She loved it. And then last night
we were watching the Bama game together. I talk about genius.
Are you guys still in No? No, we're okay so
now and she's still in it. Probably not, No, she
like excited to watch. Still know we were all in
on Bama. Bama kept winning. We would win every one
of our bracket pools that nobody like, we're all busted,
(13:12):
We're all done here are at our household, so no
one even wants to watch, Like really, I don't really
want to watch. My son does a little bit. You
have side action, don't act like you. My side action
is gone. I'm down to thirty dollars, guys, that's my
side action. I'm done with march madness like past, Like
(13:34):
I lost my Calcata, I lost my um wait, you
didn't get anything from I haven't hit a damn square.
It's not gonna hit And that's that's another thing about squares.
So Alabama, you suck, okay, and over time you get
blown out. You don't even you hit that three and
you think U. C l A should be emotionally defeated.
But you guys come out in overtime and just suck.
(13:55):
But that's what you did. You suck, but in overtime
didn't do anything. It Then, with like thirty seconds to go,
you're down by you know, you're down by six and
you're shooting two pointers by nine. You're supposed to get
a nine nine, right, You're supposed to shoot a three
so we can get nine nine, But no, we're gonna
take it in for a layup to pat my damn stats.
(14:18):
At least if you're gonna get your ass kicked, shoot
the three pointers. Got the teams. Now that hustle more.
U c l A was out. I mean that one dude,
I don't I wish I learned some names during the game.
But the guy with the headband, the dude for U
c l A. That guy was aggressive. But then there
was also the little shorter guy who's the point guard.
He was quick to dude, since when did we see
(14:41):
U c l A. Is that quick of a team?
And now, coach, we never saw you c l A.
That's what it is there on the supposed to be
in this dumb tournament. That's why they're playing so hard.
To me, the team that is the five people that
are all working in Unison Gunzaga. They're the team and
the sling team has gotta be U c l A.
(15:02):
That team is see that. I shouldn't have said anything.
I haven't seen them play. You didn't watch the game.
I'll watch him, but you gotta watch the games. I mean,
it's amazing. The right Jinks nailed again. They were killing cubes.
Why would I watch the game? They killing them out?
There goes two of his final four from the sweet
six team. That's how hard it is still to pick
(15:23):
the final fo What did he say? He said, why
would you watch? Why would I watch you? It was
a blowout, coach, So you can know what you're talking about. No,
you're right right when it gets up to about and
you can turn it off. Okay, you're telling me Chuck,
Charles and All and Kenny and all those dudes are
they're not watching. They have to watch why because they
need to know what they're talking about. Listen to my wife, though,
(15:45):
I unless I have money on it, there's no reason
I'm watching a twenty five point blowout. And so she said,
can we watch King of Queens? And I said, yeah,
you're right, it's a blowout. Why would I watch this? So,
I mean, I have no reason to watch it. I'm
not watching anymore than if it's a blowout, if it
gets up to a twenty point. He didn't watch any
of it. Coach. He says he didn't watch Houston this year.
(16:07):
I'm not talking about when the game is twenty. I'm
I'm actually happier with myself. I finally got to see
Gonzaga play, So, I mean there was some There was
a good handful of teams. I've never even seen one possession.
Have you seen Baylor play half? I mean, but I
mean tonight, I'll be all invested and actually watch this
that I like to see that I'm don't even know.
(16:28):
I'm a math guy. You're not watching Baylor Arkansas? That
is gonna be awesome? Why, Coach, I mean, we have
a I have a vested interest to see if my
boss's team wins. Coach, you can look at the score
before you come into work, coach, that's gonna be an
exciting game. Another frustrating thing last night is Quinterly, the
point in the backup point guard for Alabama. He comes
(16:49):
in the game in the second half, like, oh, he's in.
He has a chance to, you know, really speed up
the game. He can change the pace. He comes at first,
three damn possessions, turnover, turnover to get the guy on
the m game, get him out of there. But supposedly
he's their spark plug point guard that's so fast, but
he can't handle all the ball. And he goes in
and he does that little scoop lay up and he
(17:10):
gets it rejected five times in a damn road. It
was rough, dude. I was I'm still very upset about
losing that. I actually didn't even know the money amount.
Oh it was a little over at that I'd be
real mad and maybe I made. But I did all
(17:32):
the charts, and I think that was still the smart
play was Alabama wins. I am sitting so pretty, so pretty,
you're saying all the math. No, I did the eight
charts like I was like, Okay, this guy's used. All
these guys have used this team, so tomorrow if they
move on, they're all gonna have to use Oregon State.
They're just living on a prayer there and then it's
gonna be head to head me a guy, Arkansas and Baylor.
(17:54):
I mean it's just so devast like, yeah, you can
do all that stuff right, but at the end of
the day, they didn't win. So you did do it right,
I know. But I had a flawless bracket plays, says Fredgeet.
So yeah, Alabama, I mean embarrassing. I hope they take
(18:15):
their scholarships away and practice free throws because it is
how can you be? Right? Do you could you hit
eleven from three? No free throw line? Absolutely we all could.
How hard is that? Well it's also under pressure coach,
no coach, there's no pressure. This guy thinks they're just
in the in the gym with no one there. That's
why you need Michigan State in these playoffs. They never
(18:36):
missed free throws. Is Thos got them done right. So
you think as good as a coach is that Bama guy?
Is that how that's allowed? That's tolerated? I mean a
Michigan State team would never go like that from the
free throw line. It's all about coaching a lot of
the time. Did you watch Michigan State this year? They're terrible,
We're terrible their free throws. Oh damnit it just but say,
(19:00):
Kansas fan, I've seen this this story over and over
again where Kansas can't hit free throws. When you it's amazing,
it's just amazing. You can't like the Spurs because you
think those guys just suck at free throws. Really, you
think they just they just can't hit free Yes, if
they're sixty percent on the year, they suck at free throws, yes, absolutely.
You if you are a athlete, a Division one athlete,
(19:22):
they don't practice the free throws. That's the problem, and
that's why they're sixty. They go through a practice and
don't practice the free throws. You think that the whole practice,
the two hour practice that they have not one drill,
is about free throws. When you are practicing on your own,
I'm saying, what are you practicing? Your practicing your three point,
your pregnant, your drive to the lane. They need to
(19:44):
sit there and shoot two hundred free throws and practice
over and over, they wouldn't have energy to practice. They
have a lot more energy than you think. It doesn't
take that much energy to shoot two hundred free throws.
You know how long two hundred free throws can take
you that long ago, it's about forty five minutes. Probably
(20:05):
there's only twenty four hours in the day. They practiced
two or three hours a day. Guys, come on, or
they should be the way they're shooting free throws like
NBA players, you gotta practice the free throws. That's just
all there is to it. Practice thirty five percent from three?
Why didn't they tell me that before the tournament and
the overtime you turned it off right, because I mean off,
(20:26):
you turn it off overtime. No, hell, no overtimes. When
hit overtime, you turn it off right. But it went
like when you hit that three, you were just like, oh,
good night, no chance. The house woke up. So they
were already awake. I mean the kids were. I mean
they were really tired because it was already nine pm
by the time we put them in bed. We usually
put him in bed at eight, So they were fussy
(20:46):
and upset and angry, and Dad was in a bad
mood and my oh god. It was so frustrating. And
my dad even called, he goes, what's up with you
and not liking free throws? Rubbing it in, rubbed salt
in the wound because he knew I had Ala Boney
also knows about your jinks. How when you need teams
to win, they don't make their free throw interesting. I
(21:07):
will make them though now. But oral, oral, we almost,
I mean, tell me about it. Did you think that
shot was in? Oh? Yeah, yeah, I mean he missed it.
By what, It's not about the shot, it's about the
play called great coach. The wheel route guy was wide
open for a beautiful three pointer. You couldn't have drawn
it up any better than that. He just missed the shot.
I mean it was amazing. They had two guys guarding
(21:29):
him and they couldn't stop him. Like they had two
guys concentrating on that amost guy and they couldn't even
get in front of him. But what a job by
our I mean the entire you talk about Arkansas being
the favorite, the better team, they had more skilled players,
and they had to fight the entire game. I mean
it wasn't easy for as a fan or a player.
The entire game for Arkansas until the very last shot
(21:51):
and you're like, oh, we finally won the game. Oh
your butt hole was pucker the entire it tells me.
I mean against Baylor, like you can I don't know
if you can play that kind of a game. I
don't know, I don't know. I mean Arkansas, Arkansas had
to fight so hard. I mean they might just get
blowed out of the gym by Baby. Arkansas had to
(22:11):
fight every game, every game they've been hanging on my show,
it showed they've been in deficits of fifteen points every game,
every game, Like that's not a recipe for winning. Eventually,
one of those deficits is just gonna stick unless they're
Unless they're the Kansas City Chiefs of last year? Were
they every playoff game they were down double dishits, came
back and won the Super Bowl? Damn right? But come on,
but thank you for the shout out, bub Eddie. How
(22:35):
are you feeling down? I'm spent. I've lost all my money.
This has been the worst March madness of my life.
As far as the gambling, well, it's about to be April.
We've got more money coming in. How much? But I
was the three hundred doll and it dropped to thirty
kind of week. How much did you lose in the Calcutta. Well,
(22:57):
I don't know. That's not true, that's not true. I'm
made money. I made about eighty dollars, so I only
lost about hundred dollars. Here's how dumb the Calcutt is.
I want Eddie to please tell us whoever wins it
how much they want. I'll tell you right now. Well,
well i'll tell you who's still in it though, and
and and how much they've won so far. So so
(23:18):
like right now, I think the best deal that anyone
got was u c l A. Right, So for USC,
probably USC was already a good team going in U
c l A was we we did it the night
that they won, so so there was nothing promising about
u c l A. So I think they went for
seventeen dollars. Okay, so they made some money on that.
So seventeen dollars and they're going to the Elite eight
(23:40):
like you're making a lot of cash. So those are
the teams you want to invest in Calcutta. It's not
the Gonzagas that you buy. Well, you do buy Gonzaga.
I mean Gonzaga went for like over three hundred dollars.
So you buy Gonzaga for over three hundred dollars. But coach,
if they win the whole thing, you win, uh nine,
already five dollars. But the people that paid three hundred
(24:02):
for Gonzaga, I guarantee, have paid hundreds for other teams.
So at the teams risk a thousand to win three hundreds.
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. That's why, that's
why you don't go as hard as some of those
people did. So USC, I'm reading it went for fifty bucks.
I don't know how you like? What round does? Like
each round get more money? Yes? So so if if
(24:22):
the team what I'll just tell you how goes. If
the team wins one game the first round, they win
zero point five percent of the poto point five of
the pot, which is usually around like fifteen dollars. Okay. Uh.
If you win two games, you win one point five
percent of the pot, which is fifty dollars. Three wins
a hundred and fifty dollars okay. So USC is given
(24:43):
a hundred dollar profits so far. Yeah, so USC was
the best deal that's going on right now. Oral Roberts
would have been freaking awesome. But every everyone else that's
in it was probably close to a hundred dollars or
more to be in it. Damn. So who's still left.
Baylor went for two hundred, Arkansas went for one, Houston
(25:04):
went for eighty. That's not bad, not bad deal. You're
making good money on that. Same person that had Arkansas got,
same person that whoever paid a five for Arkansas has
been watching their team down fifteen every rock Houston only
eighty bucks in USC went for fifty. But I'll tell
you how that works, and then who had Okay, So
(25:28):
what happens is when you when the bids starts early,
early in the round, like Houston was early. Yeah, Houston
was early, people are scared to bid high because there's
a lot of money left and there's a lot of
teams left, you don't know. So people are like settled
without Houston, all right, thirty five. Then you see USC
gets drawn towards the end, and one's like, oh crap,
I don't have a good time, I don't have any
(25:49):
good teams. I'll take Houston. No, I'll take I'll take USC.
I'll take USC. Then it goes up to a d
got it. Oregon State went for so that person made money.
That's a hell of a deal they've made probably I
guess bucks. But damn so you do, yeah, coach, to
answer your question, you do want to pick the teams
(26:10):
that aren't expected to go very But did you know
that now going into it? I guarantee you didn't because
I know you didn't have the Calcutta figured out when
you invested a hundred eighty dollars. I did. But did
you go for underdogs? Did you pay? Did? I went
from coach my all my teams were was with. My
first one was Drake, my second one little Syracuse, which
I made money on, Oklahoma State and Rutgers. Those are all.
(26:34):
Let me say this, then you're actually a great advantage.
I believe in Calcutta's because it's an upset city this year.
The poor man is going to win the most money
in the Calcutta opposed to the rich man. Whereas if
there's yeah, so that's that's how Calcutta works. It's but
for you right now that benefits you, and Coach, I'm out,
all my teams are out. I know you just picked
the wrong one. So how's the advantage for me, just
(26:58):
like I had it all plating. Now I was gonna
win the survivor. Well, here's the thing. And as much
as as much as we say it's upset central it is,
it's not. Well it's not it was. It could be.
The ones didn't get upset, but the other teams did
get upset. I mean you look at it. Illinois got upset. Yeah,
you have the one three in the Baylor Arkansas. Then
(27:19):
you have Houston, who's the two okay, yes, Oregon State
the twelve. That's a big one. Then you have Gonzaga
playing the what what seed was U c l A
hold on? And then Michigan playing what's seed number eleven? Okay?
So yeah, USC six. So there's a little bit, but
you still see the Usually it evens out that Cinderella
(27:42):
doesn't last, except unless you're you see damn l A
and you play Bama, who sucks. Hey, props l A
for having two teams in the turn first time ever.
U c l A and USC have been in the
lead eight together. Pretty cool. And I'm gonna just say this,
the Pact twelve, you're the best damn basketball conference there is.
Too bad we didn't see you play this year because
you play it at midnight. I mean, maybe watched one
of the games on sports who stays up that las? Like,
(28:04):
why can't we just tell me before the tournament that
the pack twelve is so damn good? I mean, and
they're not all in the tournament. They all right rank six, eleven, twelve, eight.
They didn't get a very good high I think because
I think all the people that do the ranking East
comes bias. Maybe it sure is, and they go to
bed early. So hey, biggy East. They're real good, grate
(28:25):
and put up quite the fight against Gonzaga. Gonzaga is
so good. Gonzaga is so good. That's why, Like, do
you agree with me Gonzaga? I mean the way they
work together? Do I agree with you? That? There? They
look amazingly? I mean like look at Alabama last night.
Were they pretty to watch? Or it was a lot
(28:45):
of herkey jerky Okay we got to home. They were
pretty to watch unless you're like building houses with brick.
When you watch Gonzaga, what did it sound like when
alabam would shoot every single time? And now what about
when Gonzaga shoots? Oh nothing? But then their passes are
crisp they just float. You can always. I mean as
(29:05):
a basketball player, I never really got was able to float.
Oh you were a basketball player. Coach, Yes, coach all
the time. No coach shut it down in high school.
But anyways, I never had that ability to float. But
there are guys for Gonzaga. I mean, they don't even
look like they're playing that hard, but you just have
that glide, just like LaMelo, He's one of the best
guys that just floats. But the whole team of Gonzaga,
(29:28):
their flow and everything. I love it. I love how
they play the game about So is that your champ? Coach,
I gotta see Baylor. I really haven't seen him seen
Baylor play so that. I mean you would say, right,
I would say Baylor. I think. I think there's way
more pressure on them. Yeah, they are the better team.
They have the most pressure, They have the most the
most pressure out of everyone. Enough, because they haven't lost
(29:50):
one single game. I mean that's tough, that's tough. I
mean they've made it this far without losing a game.
That's amazing. But again, they haven't played big, big, big,
big competition. I mean, yeah, they're playing decent teams, but
I mean, again, they are so good. If they get
on there with Baylor. If it's Baylor Gonzaga, I think
(30:11):
Baylor wins it, and I mean, I think that's really
how it's gonna be. And I say it's Gonzaga because
they can shoot better. I'm excited to see Gonzaga against
USC because that damn link those but everybody USC, no, no,
USC is all twelve feet tall guys that have arms
that reached the freaking top of the arena Michigan. Have
(30:32):
you seen us? Have you seen basketball players in general?
Guys us USC is exceptionally tall. Every guy you're seeing.
The giraffe in Arkansas, he doesn't play because he's terrible.
I tried to play him at one time and they
got off the court real quick. I do love that
about Muscleman. You see a seven six dude, I don't
(30:53):
know how dull he is. I'm just making that number up,
But you see a giraffe, dude, You're just like, I
have to play him. There's no way I can let
us seven foot dude sit on my bench in the
middle of this tournament. And he doesn't. He's just like,
sit yours down. We don't need to. You suck like
you can't move, You're so slow. Like I mean, as
a coach, I would be like, look, I have to
(31:13):
I just can't. I can't let that dude just sit there.
So what do you think? Oh, I think it's Gonzaka.
But I'm excited to see them play USC because no,
that zone of USC and the length of those damn
brothers and then the white guy, I mean they what's
his name? What is his name? Beheim? No, no, guys,
(31:40):
stop it. You can't put a hole. You can't put
the pressure of winning on a one dude. I mean
he wasn't open for one second the whole game. Buddy
bayhim was the best since Buddy Beyheim just had no
chance to help that team out. Hang up and listen.
I mean USC six ten six nine seven ft ft
(32:01):
six eleven. That is ridiculous. That doesn't equate twoins coach
and spud Web could dribble under him and lay it up. Coach,
spud Web could beat Shock and I'll hang up and
list after way right on, Aunt Canadian Elephant coach. Hey,
but agree with me. It was a good weekend of basketball.
It was fun until it was really excited over. It
(32:25):
was great. I get your licking your wounds. But good God,
because let's be real, wasn't it. Let's be real. I
probably should have been out. I probably should have been
out of the eliminator because I had Arkansas against or
coach all your charting wasn't very good. My charting, I
never believe it. I charted the whole thing, but then
I lost. Okay, so screw the chart, coach the chart.
I mean I felt like when I was doing the charts,
(32:46):
I felt like I felt like Bryson DJ carry the
one well, depending on what what chart it was, you
carry this arrow over here, this area. And I was like, man,
this is what Bryson feels like when he's lining up
a put. And then, so is there any chance for
anyone else in this championship? In your eyes? Any anyone else?
(33:06):
I mean, no, Michigan is bad. I mean they maybe
will be there, as I am shocked at how well
Michigan has done because I loved Michigan. And then with
the last five games this season, I think they lost
three of them, and I was like, well, what the
hell happened to them? And then Livers gets hurt foot injury,
(33:27):
and I'm like, well, he's one of their main cock.
They're gonna suck and here they go. There's rolling right along. Yeah,
but I think the three pointers gonna. Gonzaga could blow
them off the court. Really, the three pointer is a
huge difference. Gonzaga can do it, Michigan can't. U C.
L A really can't do it at all either. So
I mean that's that's why I go with Gonzaga. I
gotta see about Arkansas. Arkansas is a threat, but I
(33:48):
feel like they just get cleaned out by Baylor tonight.
They have to You can't be down ten games in
a row and then just it. They have to be
worn out. They have to be absolutely like Oral Roberts
worked them for however many minutes a basketball game is
I just don't. I mean, Baylor is so confident in Arkansas.
It's like, oh my gosh, I've never coached. Imagine being
(34:10):
at the casino for three hours, you've been losing your ass,
and then my weekend that your Arkansas and then at
the last second you won. Though, But that's different. So
did you start live betting and you were Now that
we really got me was the dogs coach, We really
got me. I think Alabama got me. That was the
last straw for sure. So you were live betting, I mean,
(34:30):
coach that when they were down, I mean, I'm just pounding.
I'm just pushing dollars fifty. I mean I'm at one
point I was like, in the game, did you see
there to push? There was nothing. I saw the plus six.
I saw the Arkansas, you know, like the plus in there.
I saw the Arkansas plus four. I mean Alabama plus four.
(34:50):
I'm like, it's got to be closer than four. So
you were just wanting them to miss that three. Coach.
When they went to overtime, I'm like, that's exciting to
see and every the money right there. That was the
three point. It was the worst thing ever for it was.
But I mean so we had the option opposite reactions.
When he hit the three. I got excited because again
we were with a family, were all watching it, so
(35:12):
everyone got excited, and then I was like, oh crap,
my bet. But then but it's not over at that point.
I'm just like, when they hit a three like that,
you expect in overtime that they're gonna roll because you
don't think the other team is gonna be the moral
lie correct Because I even told my boys, like I
think with a minute left, you see, LA had their
(35:32):
arms right each other, like jumping up. And I'm like
watching boys watching they're celebrating a little too early. Watch
these guys. Sure enough, homeboy hits the three. We're going
over time. And I said, what did I tell you? U?
C l A was celebrating just a little early. Weren't there?
And they can't shoved in your face like dad. They
won by twelve, and then then the sun rose again
and you saw it. You see, I mean, I get
(35:55):
you with the plus four and plus five. That was attractive.
But what we've learned in gambling, nothing has to happened.
You said, Alabama, that has to have nothing has to happen.
I was feeling it. That's why I was putting the money.
But you did plus four and plus five? Was that
a little bit after halftime because at the half of it,
I mean you probably got plus eight. No, it was
it was never that good. The line was never that
(36:17):
good because Alabama was a favorite by seven. I think
they were the second biggest favorite on the card yesterday.
That's why another reason I thought, oh you know, that's
a good pick on my eliminator. Florida State wipe me out.
Come on, guys, you got I mean, it just never
got They never got closer and closer, it got further away,
and it was just like it was brutal. Dude, the
whole day was bad for me. But but did you
(36:40):
live bet? I'm curious you live at Florida State. They
looked horrible the whole game. So my wife is in
another league with all my family from with you watching
the Sorry coach, if you live bet these games. The
Michigan game was obvious. Michigan was gonna win the game.
There was never a doubt. There was never knee them
(37:00):
to win the game. Coach. I needn't lose by ten,
that's it. At one point, I got him a plus
twelve plus twelve, give me a hundred plus twelve. This
is a freaking NC double turn, coach. They just didn't
look good. That's my thing. If you're live betting. What
Eddie is live betting, though, is who he thinks he's
gonna win the game at the beginning of the game,
(37:22):
and so they get down. He's like, well, if I
already thought they were gonna win the game at the beginning,
they're obviously gonna come back. I don't think he's thinking,
because when you watch when coaches live betting, he's betting
against himself. Earlier, he's like, that guy didn't know what
he's talking about. I will bet against that guy that
I will know. Going into the game, he thought Florida
State was going to win. Okay, So he watches the
(37:43):
game and he's stuck with that point. He was like, Wow,
they're gonna win the game, but you're giving me twelve points. Okay.
When if you're watching that game, Florida State didn't belong
on the same court as Michigan. Like it was just over.
It was an absolute domination slaughterhouse. They could have called
it a half time. I figured they hit a couple
of threes and get it close and that's it, you know,
(38:04):
and then daddy wins. I mean you you you started
seeing like with eight minutes ago, in the first half,
Florida State's shoulders started sagg in. They started getting frowns
on their face, like dangn these guys are really good.
Then coming out of half time, oh boy, didn't get
any better, and you kept betting. I will say this
for Eddie though, with your live bets, the Arkansas are
not not the Arkansas the last game last night Alabama.
(38:26):
It was close right because I mean that wasn't the
last game though, Yeah, it was a later game. I
will see this with I want on that one. I
got some money back. I was like Jesus, guys, for
the most part, if you live bet, it's gonna be close. Correct.
If you bet a game before it starts, there's the
(38:47):
chance you could lose by twenty points. I know what
you're talking. I feel like when you live bet, at
least you're going to have a close bet, unless you're
Eddie and you bet on the team that's getting their
ass kicks. What I do, that's usually that's usually what
I do. I never bet with basketball. It's one of
the person that's winning. I never live bet that. I
was as well. Here's the thing with live betting. You're
(39:09):
getting a very good feel of the game. If teams
are sting the ball. I mean you really are so
And I feel like the beauty of live betting, which
these gambling sites haven't realized it. You're gonna be in there.
I don't know why anybody nowadays bets a game before
it and let them let the ball t up. At
least We're in a stadium with a hundred people. That mean,
who knows what could happen. I mean the beauty of
live betting. Take advantage of it because it's way better
(39:31):
than betting it before. Did you live bet the Syracuse
Houston game? But I did? Yeah, of course? And did
you bet Syracuse? Of course? Oh my god, of course
I didn't. Like I watched that game in Syracuse had
no shot? They had no shot. Did you realize that
there was like two minutes left in the game in Syracuse?
Couldn't they couldn't score? To say that, but that's what
(39:53):
I'm saying. But you live betted them because a live
bet on Syracuse when you're watching that game and they
can't even get open, It's true, they could not get open.
I mean usually what you see in a lot of
these games is like, uh, even like in m Villanova
Baylor for example, Like Villanova looked good going in the half.
So that's a live bet where you're like, obviously they're
(40:15):
not gonna win this stupid game. So you put it
all on Baylor and they come back and they beat him.
You know, like that's like that was a smart bet.
That's my strategy most of the time because usually you
have a team that's way better than a team that's
getting there, that's kicking their ass, so you live bet them.
In this case, I just I thought Florida State was
gonna be a lot better. I thought they would come back.
I thought they would make it a closer game. I
(40:36):
didn't think they would come back and win the game.
I'm not live betting money lines. I'm just I'm getting
the deal with all the plus I'm getting points. Every
single time they're there, they get scored on. Daddy gets
more points, and I put more money on it and
I lost. And you notice how they kept scoring so
they never stopped him on defense, but you kept betting
(40:57):
on them, like you understand you had to get stops
to be able to come. Yeah, but I bet more
on them because to me, it's like more of a deal.
It's more of a deal, like you're giving me three
more points. Now, let's go betting sides, giving Eddie a bargain.
Do you think I go right now? It's a two
for bogo one. How do you think I got to
(41:22):
That's the recreational idiot right there. What about you? How
much do you lose recreational idiot. You're losing too. I
lost twenty bucks on that. How and what your squares?
I'm losing on that? To me, here's the thing. I'm
gonna tell you something. And the squares are just pissing
me off because that's it's just dumb. We just stop
(41:43):
doing it. No, that's so great. No, it's so great
because here's the thing. It doesn't matter until the last minute,
right there's halftime. It's it's the last resort of the game,
like when everything else that you've lost the bet, you've
lost all that, at least sucking button over time. That's
where at least got the square. But then they pull
up and shoot a two pointer when they don't even
(42:04):
shoot two pointers the whole damn game. What's their coach's philosophy? Threes,
free throws, get to the hoop, and they pull up
for a two, like a ten foot jump shot like that.
That goes against your coach's philosophy. And you could have
a square, but no, we're gonna shoot it two even
though we're down twelve. A coach that's all about his philosophy.
Then in the most important part of the game, he
(42:25):
doesn't foul and he lets them shoot a three pointer,
Like I thought that was your philosophy. Guys, when you
have a philosophy, for the love of God, stick to it.
And then the squares, like you're down thirteen with three
seconds ago, no need to foul, no need to foul,
and you foul and they make both free throws and
you lose the damn square because you had the square
up until that. Well, yeah, just there's been numerous games
(42:46):
where I have the square and there's less than three
seconds and they foul and it's like, guys, you're down
fourteen points. You're not gonna win the game. Just let
the clock run out. But for the most part, having
these games been lows. I mean, there's it doesn't matter
about low scoring. I don't care about over unders. I'm
talking about square. No, he's just over. He's only over
(43:10):
these games you don't touch over And he had a
bad weekend. I had a bad weekend. Jimmy Garoppolo had
a bad weekend. Dude. San Francisco said, look, we're gonna
keep you. They basically told him, you're on your way
out of here. Bud Boo boo. They traded up to
number three spot because they're gonna draft a quarterback. They
traded with Miami and said, hey, guys, we want to
come up and get one of those quarterbacks that's available.
(43:31):
Who would they be looking at? That's the fields we
don't know, because you know, Trevor Lawrence is going number one,
and then the Jets, who are they going to take
number two? Is it gonna be Zack Wilson, Is it
gonna be Trey Lance, is gonna be justin Fields? Is
it gonna be really get another quarterback back Jones? You
don't know, but what it's like to draft a good quarterback.
(43:51):
But San Francisco said, man, we like numerous quarterback Is
what they're saying to the public is there are We
don't care who the yet draft. We're gonna be happy
with whoever we get at number three because we love
the quarterbacks coming out. So that tells Jimmy Garoppolo, hey,
you're there. You're you're in the Alex Smith role that
(44:11):
Kansas City had Alex Smith. You're gonna groom. You're gonna
groom somebody, and then next year you're gonna be on
your way out. But they still came out and use
the term groom. Jimmy Garoppolo's our guy, you guy. It
is so bad and many bad connotations. Now, coach, what
do you mean by groom? Coach? He's gonna show him
(44:31):
the ropes, teach him how to be able to and stuff.
I'm a dog, will you groom me? Hey? That's from
the what is that? Coach? And the Big You're gonna
squeeze my Titto Foker. You're gonna milk mes No, no, no,
nonch on the show. All right, I didn't know. I
(44:56):
was like, what so, yeah, So I don't know who
San Francisco is going to get. But here's an interesting
tweet from Mike Tannenbaum. An interesting fact related to yesterday's trades.
Over the last ten years, the qbs that were traded
up for in the top three picks include r G three,
Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, Mitchell Trobiski, and Sam Donald. So
(45:19):
every quarterback that has been traded up to get in
the top three has been kind of crap. Uh. Jared Goff,
he's already he already got traded in. The Rams already
said we're done with you. But he's not crap. He's
not crap. He didn't go to a Super Bowl. But
they decided, Hey, we're moving on from you. We traded
up to get you, and we're already done with you.
We want Matthew Stafford. So yeah, forty Niners fans. Oh,
(45:40):
that's good, that's good. I can't wait. Have you talked
to kid about this? I haven't talked to kids, but
my brother called and he's excited. He's like, I feel
like you know he does. He doesn't want your brother
should stop with the Niners already. I know he was
a fan because of Joe mont I was to trust me.
Look when we were as you mean, me and you're
(46:00):
batter were the same age, and we grew up in
the rinks together, and we both loved Joe Montana. We
loved that forty Niner team with Jerry Rice and John
Taylor and Jon Rathman and Ronnie Lott and coach. We
knew we that was our team. Loved it. But guess what,
they're gone. There's non play anymore. He should move on
(46:21):
to a better team, the freaking Dallas Cowboys. Baby, not
a Cowboys. It's so stupid. Coach. Look, look, we were
all kids and we love the Niners. I get it.
You were dominant. That's what I was wondering, I don't
know how my dif were dominant. Did my brother like
the Niners before no teeth, Keith, or did he like
them because they were winning when we were kids, winning
because you were kids. Everyone loved the Niners. I was
(46:43):
the biggest for the Niner fan in the world. And
then when Montana went to the Chiefs, I was like,
I don't like Steve Young, I don't like that storyline.
I'm gonna go with the Chiefs. And then Montana retired,
and then you know what, I'm like, I just gotta
I gotta go to my roots, gotta be a Cowboys fan.
It's time batter Box stops it. When it stops with
the Niners. I see your point, because everybody was a
(47:05):
huge Chicago Bulls fan because of Michael Jordan, I mean
Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen. They were dominant, so everybody loved him.
Everybody wanted to be like Mike. And then once Mike
left the NBA, I realized, Man, the San Antonio Spurs
are right here, and it's kind of cool with David
Robinson and they got Tim Duncan, and then I went
to work for the organization. I was like, man, I'm
(47:25):
a Spurs fan. Spurs go. And then did you see
LaMarcus Aldridge super team over? What do you think of this?
I mean, good for them? I mean Brooklyn don't roll.
Good for them. I don't know, La La land Lebron.
It is time to you got a super team somewhere
(47:45):
else because the Brooklyn Nets just did it better than you.
They just played your own game and beat you at it.
They'll just play in the championship. Coach, Oh they will.
And dude, the Nets are unbelievable. I mean it'll be
It'll mean Nets Lakers every year in the in the lake.
Chris can keep it up, I don't know, getting healthy,
like Dave, Lakers might not even make the playoffs. They're
gonna make the playoffs. Let's calm down on that. Well, yes,
(48:08):
I just I'm like, I guess it's cool because it's
within the rules, but it's the dumbest they have the most.
Look at the Pistons. Name a Piston, Jeremiah ben Wallace,
Chauncey Billups. Is that what you're gonna? I mean, Dennis Rodman,
(48:29):
there we go, Okay, But like LaMarcus ads all the
reports where he's going to the heat. He's going to
the heat. He's going to the heat. And then it
comes out I'm gonna go to the next It's pretty crazy.
And who's their coach again, Nash? Yeah, so stupid it
says stupid. I don't know coach. I mean again, I
don't think LaMarcus Aldridges is as good as he once was.
(48:53):
Still he's still damn good. I understand he's damn good.
But again to put them he's got a big name. Yes,
I don't think he's a superstar. No, but he can
average twelve thirteen points. Get you know he doesn't really
Is he gonna be a bench player? Yeah, he ain't started.
I would say I would think he's a bench players,
which makes the team really stacked the bench Dryant Tree, Yeah,
(49:20):
that's what I'm saying, dude, hard and during Blake Griffin,
LaMarcus Aldridge and Joe Harris, I mean they're the name
embid going there too. What's happening? It's the all name team,
like they have all the names, doesn't equal to it?
Did it feel cheap? When if the Marcus Aldridge wins
(49:41):
a ring this year, is it like, oh that's kind
of cheap? Cheap? It's I mean, that's how it works.
He's still got the ring and in twenty years he's
gonna be like, I'm an NBA champion, but I'm just like, man,
it seems so weak. But for the Spurs to who
cares like they're winning games, they're playing well, I don't.
I think, who What did the Spurs get out of it? Nothing?
He just left, bought him out. We we didn't have
to pay. We didn't have to pay the full amount
(50:02):
of his contract. We got a discount, which I don't
understand for next year. I guess what I don't understand
is the buyout. Like, Okay, you don't want to you
don't want him on your team, so you get a
little bit of a discount. So you're just gonna let
him walk for free. You're gonna give him nine million
dollars to walk away. It just said it's till to
go home, and like you can't. That's the contract. No, No,
(50:24):
you can tell him to go home and you can
just pay him. But instead you're gonna save a million
dollars and one million I think it's gonna be more
than that, and whatever team they want. It's just's so weird.
It feels cheap, it feels gross. And the Nets, I
don't know how that anybody in the East is gonna
beat him. I don't know they're not getting beat. I'm
(50:44):
telling you that these are super teams. This is how
it is. Here we go who they're absolutely the favorites
in Vegas, absolute and geared up for this because it
just happened. But no, they're geared up. They already have
their are probably hey this morning their meeting. Have we've
done the East Coolst Division of the NBA? Have you
(51:07):
heard what's happening with the basketball nets? I hear that
the elders with the Nets, you win a hundred, you
put down a hundred, two times your money, you win
two hundred. But they're the only one. They're the odds
on favorite, right you double your money? Coach? Yeah? Well,
I mean, yeah, what's the Lakers? Lakers are four to one,
so four times your money and that's are two times
your money. That's a big favorite. I love the Nets
(51:29):
is two times your money. And I think James Harden
is right when he says he is the m v P. Yeah,
because that was an episode he titled the episode James Harden,
No No, I'm pretty sure. They asked James Harden what
he thinks about him being in the m v P race,
and he said, I am the MVP, and I have
to agree with I mean, I think you have to
say that. And before we go, I am the MVP.
(51:52):
Let me pray email coaches are your hands? Coaches? Thanks
for talking about top Shot. I made the cut on
the last drop and I got a pack and I
sold a moment for six d alright, lunch, how much
have you made from top Shot? Man? What i'd picture proof?
Should have this been worth that much? And he got
(52:14):
a moment? What was his moment? Emmanuel quickly and a
jump shot for six hundred seventy five dollars? And what
have you? How much money have you made man, I've
made nothing. I haven't been able to get I have
not been able to make the cut for a pack.
How much have you spent on top Shots? Yeah, I've
tried to. I had to have some moments for the drops.
(52:36):
Do you get it? No, I don't understand. Do you
understand why someone paid six hundred sent five for this?
I know, yeah, I do Why because they're gonna turn
it over. They can try to turn it over. That's
their goal. No, no, no, I don't think you buy
it for six hundred seventy five to turn it over
at some point like over, at some point they're gonna
think that they can turn it over for I mean,
(52:58):
I am just so this dude, Eric, Eric, congratulations, I
can't believe you've got I mean, that's just that's disgusting.
