00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,280
Recorded live from the historic River Market area in downtown Kansas City proper

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:11,520
near the banks of the crystal blue waters of the Missouri River, we give you

3
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:15,920
the sports baskets.

4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:26,720
Hi there, this is your ears. Why are you listening to this garbage? I thought we

5
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:32,240
were friends. Harambe used to call into our original show, Two Dip Shits and a

6
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:37,760
Cheap Radio Shack Candy Recorder. Harambe stopped calling into our original show,

7
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,280
Two Dip Shits and a Cheap Radio Shack Candy Recorder. Why did Harambe stop

8
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,520
calling into our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheap Radio Shack Candy

9
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,680
Recorder? Harambe was senselessly murdered because some idiot could not

10
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,080
watch her children properly while looking at her phone. Sadly, Harambe does

11
00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:04,040
not listen to any show anymore. Sorry Harambe. Alright, sports bastards, this is

12
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:09,280
a prediction section where we're gonna make our horrible picks that won't come true.

13
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,920
To speed things up, I've already made my predictions and wrote them down. Oh good.

14
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,760
So I might modify them as I go along. Okay. But that'll help speed things up.

15
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,900
But okay, nobody on the bye week this week. The NFL makes everyone play on

16
00:01:23,900 --> 00:01:28,760
Thanksgiving week. Oh yeah. No one gets a bye. Yeah, because everybody's at home. Yep.

17
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:35,440
Eating turkey. In fact, we have three Thursday games, a Friday game, and then

18
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,840
the usual Sunday and Sunday night and Monday night games. There's probably

19
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,960
gonna be two games left to play during the day on Sunday. Yeah, pretty much.

20
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:47,840
There's only what three games in the three o'clock slot on Sunday. That's what

21
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:56,000
I thought. Three games for the whole country. Yep. Alright, first up we have, in the morning game on

22
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:02,720
Thanksgiving, is four and seven Chicago at ten and one Detroit. Oh yeah, I'm picking Detroit, of course.

23
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:15,560
Yeah. I'm gonna say it's gonna be 35 to 23. That sounds good. I picked 30 to 13

24
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,240
Detroit. Okay. I think Detroit is gonna have no problem scoring at

25
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,920
home in a traditional Thanksgiving game. No, they're showcasing the world right

26
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:29,720
now. They're like, go and look, we're the up-and-comers, we're the dethroners.

27
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:37,700
Watch. I'm not sure if Dallas and Detroit swap, excuse me, every Thanksgiving on who

28
00:02:37,700 --> 00:02:40,840
has the first game and who has the second. It seems like Detroit always has

29
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,000
the second game. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I was thinking that too. Usually Detroit's night

30
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,440
game and Dallas is a day game while people are eating. Yeah, so for Detroit

31
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,080
Lions, this is old hat. Playing early on Thanksgiving Day, that's what they're

32
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:58,400
used to. Chicago's not. No, they're gonna win comfortably because of that.

33
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,860
And then they have a superior team. Yeah, definitely. Alright, the second game on

34
00:03:03,860 --> 00:03:08,000
Thursday is the two and nine Giants at the four and seven Cowboys who have not

35
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:22,200
won at home yet. I'm gonna, but they just won. I'm gonna have to go with the Cowboys. Me too. I'm gonna say it's 20 to 17. Oh, close to me. I picked 20 to

36
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:26,560
10, but this will be the first game the Cowboys win at home this year. Yeah, and

37
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:32,760
Bry the only. Man, maybe. That may be. Yep. Alright, the night game on Thursday as

38
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:37,480
you're digesting turkey and trying to stay awake is five and six Miami at eight

39
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:43,280
and three Green Bay. And taking big greasy dumps. Yeah, and something else to keep in

40
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:49,960
mind for Sunday's games, probably not for Thursday's games, is the whole New

41
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,800
England area is gonna get cold temperatures and crap loads of snow. Oh

42
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,360
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's gonna add to it, isn't it? Yeah, so you know any

43
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,400
games up in that area, you know Boston they were showing you getting like eight

44
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:08,120
to twelve inches of lake effect snow, so games might be postponed or relocated.

45
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:15,480
Yeah. Everyone's got to be ready for that. I picked Green Bay over Miami 23-14. I

46
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,520
think Green Bay is a little more complete right now. Mm-hmm. And Miami

47
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:30,440
doesn't do well in the cold, especially at night. Yeah, yeah. Same reasons. 32, 27.

48
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:35,320
Closer score than I had. Oh, you think it's gonna be a blowout? I had a nine

49
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,640
point difference and you got a five point difference. I think Tago Viola is on

50
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,600
some way over Rollins, so they're gonna put up a five. Probably is, probably is, yeah.

51
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:49,880
Alright, the Friday afternoon game, the Black Friday game. Oh yeah. Because why

52
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,560
not? We needed a Black Friday game, didn't we? What time is the time slot on that?

53
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:58,680
Two o'clock. Two o'clock. I guess that gives people time to go shopping in the

54
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,800
morning and then come home. I was wondering how they're gonna do that.

55
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:06,000
Okay. You know, typically on Black Friday, everyone stands outside the store at 4 a.m.

56
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,760
and then they open and then they all crush each other. Yeah, yeah. They crush

57
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:15,760
each other to death for $30 off some luggage. Yeah. Never mind that the

58
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:20,640
luggage was marked up $30 yesterday, so they could mark it down. Oh, why do you

59
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:26,200
research? Why do you research? Yeah. Alright, so two and nine Vegas, ten and one KC. I

60
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:31,680
don't think there's much questioning. No. I mean, this could be a horrible trap

61
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:37,040
game, except we already lost to Buffalo, so I think that was our scare. I think so.

62
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:44,840
35, 17 Kansas City. Really close. I picked 31, 17. Oh wow. So we're real close on

63
00:05:44,840 --> 00:05:50,000
that. Yeah, I see the Chiefs getting out to big lead and not that they're gonna

64
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,520
show a lot, but I think it's just gonna be easy to score on Vegas. Yeah, yeah. I

65
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:59,240
think that they are just gonna enjoy stomping the piss out of them. Yeah. And

66
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:08,160
the Holmes will do some sort of a code word. Yeah, we got things handled. I like

67
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:12,520
the way he handles things. I do too. Alright, first of the noon games on

68
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:18,600
Sunday, 7 and 5 Houston at 2 and 9 Jacksonville. Who was the first one?

69
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,880
Houston at Jacksonville. Oh, Houston. Well, Houston's got to play well somewhere. Yeah.

70
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,920
I can't pick a better place than Jacksonville. Jacksonville's 2 and 9. I

71
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,880
mean, you've got to be able to beat the team like that. They're flatlining. Now, I

72
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:42,040
know that the Texans are having bad rhythm, at least. They're not flatlining.

73
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:47,440
They're off sync. Yeah. They're off sync. Yeah. I'm going to say that Texans are

74
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,520
gonna win, of course, but it's not gonna be a blowout or nothing. I'm gonna say

75
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:58,600
it's gonna be a 24 to 18. Let's give it a weird way. Yeah. I initially had 24-17, but

76
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:04,520
changed it to 20-17 Houston. Either one I could see happening very easily. So, yeah.

77
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,520
A couple of wrinkles to watch for Jacksonville is there are stories

78
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:13,000
coming out now that the team is considering sitting Trevor Lawrence for

79
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:18,240
the rest of the season to protect his health. Oh, he has been an A-lin health

80
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,720
player. Yeah. And there's no point in having him play out the rest of an

81
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,440
obviously losing season because the absolute best they can hope for is

82
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:30,040
8 and 9. Yeah. Which is a losing season. So, there's a lot of stories

83
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,720
coming out that Trevor Lawrence is gonna be sat and then traded in the off

84
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,280
season because that team needs more than just a quarterback. Yeah. And I think Doug

85
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:42,560
Peterson's gonna be part of the flush. Yeah. Yeah. I agree. So, I'm not looking

86
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:49,440
for Jacksonville to show much life from here on out. Yeah, I agree. Yeah, that's I

87
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,600
don't know what else to say about that. I mean Jacksonville's, they had a fork in

88
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:59,840
them already. Mm-hmm. So. This is scary. We're agreeing on all the teams so far. Oh, jeez.

89
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:06,480
Up next is 5 and 7 Indianapolis at 3 and 9 New England.

90
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:16,040
Who picked New England? Mm-hmm. 24-17. I went the other way finally. Oh, good, good.

91
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:21,440
We got one. I picked Indianapolis 20 to nothing. Oh. The first time I'm predicting a

92
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:26,240
shutout this season. I think New England is the capability of being absolutely

93
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:32,040
scoreless. Okay, I could see that. There's another game. I modified the score to

94
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:38,840
suit the team. Is May's? Derek May, I think, is Drake May. I think he's still playing.

95
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,160
May. It's May. It's not May's. I keep calling him May's. Yeah, I do too. Derek May. I think

96
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:47,400
Derek May might have a good game here and there, so I'm giving it. Is he still

97
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:53,800
starting or is it Percett? I think it's May. Okay, I'm gonna give May a little

98
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:59,960
coming out game. Yeah. What better team? So, we'll go against. Yeah, yeah. And if Percett has to go in, he used to

99
00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:06,320
play for Indy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, up next, seven and four Chargers at six

100
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:24,160
and five Atlanta. Chargers. Yeah. 28. 27. Notice the 28 I put in there? Yeah. Yeah.

101
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:33,680
28, 27. Yeah, more than this. I picked the Chargers 27-13. Oh, you went one under. Okay. Yeah.

102
00:09:33,680 --> 00:09:40,160
Man, Atlanta's, I think their record is deceiving because didn't they start four

103
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:44,720
and oh? Yes. So, since then, they've played two and five. So, I'm gonna start treating

104
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,880
them like a two and five team. Just like those Tampa Bay fans. I told them, I said,

105
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,760
Kirk Cousins is gonna be Kirk Cousins eventually. Yeah. There you go. Yeah.

106
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:56,440
Tampa's gonna take that division in my opinion, I think. They got a strong shot.

107
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:02,840
New Orleans isn't going anywhere and we know Carolina's not. Yeah. Yeah. Cute. All

108
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:11,760
right, next up, six and five Seattle at the three and eight New York Jets. Seattle.

109
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:21,720
Yeah. Let's say 24-14. I went 35 to 12. It's kind of wishful thinking.

110
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,640
I'm looking for the Jets to get humiliated from here on out. So, they just

111
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,000
throw away everything they're doing this season and do something different next

112
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:35,600
season. They're getting a bareback paddling in the field. Yeah. I mean, if the Jets

113
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,120
show signs of life and actually make a kind of decent showing the rest of the

114
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,960
season, then the organization will be tempted to not really do much. Oh, yeah.

115
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,000
And oh my gosh, they need to do everything. Yeah. I think the Jets need to

116
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:51,000
get a big unball bite. Yeah. Yeah. Which I'm gonna tell at the end of this podcast,

117
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:58,200
maybe. They need to do the radiator cap exchange. That's where your car is so bad

118
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,320
that you just you unscrew the radiator cap and lift it up and you back your

119
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,840
shitty car out, back a new car in and screw the radiator cap back down.

120
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,680
That's what the Jets need to do. That's what they need to do. Keep the name, keep the

121
00:11:10,680 --> 00:11:14,440
stadium, throw everything else away. Everything else goes. Yeah. Change your

122
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:20,400
logo, modify your colors, change your uniform. Because you're the Jets and

123
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:25,960
you're just always gonna be the Jets. I would have an exorcism. Oh, good idea.

124
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:32,480
Yeah. Get rid of Aaron Rodgers spirit after they fire him. Really? Yes.

125
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:42,880
All right. Next game, 3-8 Tennessee at 7-5 Washington. Tennessee showed some life.

126
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:48,760
They showed some life. And Will Leves has actually been getting some yards and doing decent.

127
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:54,600
So young team versus young team. Yeah. I'm gonna have to go with Washington because I

128
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:59,120
think at some point they're gonna have to show up again. Yeah, they are. Jaden

129
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,880
Daniels is gonna have to start showing some of that flash and pizazz he had at

130
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:10,240
first. Yeah. I'm gonna go Washington. Mm-hmm.

131
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:21,000
30 to 14. I had 24-17 Washington. Okay. Which makes it a one score game which

132
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,360
you know I'd hoped for. It's probably like that because I mean like the Monday night

133
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:29,160
game wasn't as close as it looked with that garbage touchdown at the very end

134
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,700
from San Diego. It looked like it was a one score game but really after the third

135
00:12:33,700 --> 00:12:40,440
quarter actually midway in the third quarter it was not. Yeah, no it was yeah.

136
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,160
You can tell San Francisco was running to try to catch up as much as possible.

137
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:49,440
They just weren't gonna get there. Yeah. Young team against young team. I think

138
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:55,080
Washington has more excitement right now. They've certainly done better this

139
00:12:55,080 --> 00:13:01,120
season with double the wins that Tennessee has. So that's that's why I

140
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:07,080
went with Washington. Okay the Raiders or not the Raiders the Ravens. Mm-hmm.

141
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:12,880
Didn't okay. Where are the Ravens? Oh no go ahead go ahead I was just saying

142
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:17,600
something in my head. Oh there's the Ravens they play Philly. Okay oh that'd be a

143
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:23,400
good game. Yeah all right next up eight in three Pittsburgh at four and seven

144
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:28,600
Cincinnati. I'm gonna give it to Cincinnati. Wow. I think they're gonna

145
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:33,720
fight 34 to 30.

146
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:39,920
Signs of life from Joe Burrow. Yeah well I mean he's been playing very well.

147
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,680
That's true he's not he's not doing bad. I think Zach Taylor's gonna get

148
00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:56,440
everybody's attention briefly. I went 24 16 Pittsburgh. Okay I'm not sure how the

149
00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:01,200
game's gonna go. I just. Do you think that Natties could think we're not gonna make the playoffs

150
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:06,280
anyhow and just kind of blow it in? Or do you think that Pittsburgh is just gonna take it to them?

151
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:11,520
I think Pittsburgh's gonna take it to them. I don't see Cincinnati giving up

152
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:16,720
this year really. I know I said earlier that unless they're sure that Joe Burrow

153
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,720
was on his way out and then I think the players are gonna go with self-protection.

154
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,560
Yeah they're gonna go I'm not getting injured over this bullshit he's not even

155
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:28,440
gonna be here. Yeah and in fact that'll be a good indicator if the players know

156
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:34,640
or not is if they all start checking out half-assing the effort not really then

157
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,440
that'll be my cue that they know Joe Burrow is gonna be playing for a different

158
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,840
team next year and it's rebuilding. Which they have not because every game has

159
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:48,880
been close. Yeah yeah but. Anyhow. Even though it's been close they're still four

160
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,160
and seven. I know. They're just not gonna do anything. It started off with the

161
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,720
second game of the season against the Chiefs. I mean they're 0-1 first and

162
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:59,640
then when they played them we saw a little bit of deflating. Yes there was.

163
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:05,680
And same way I mean so many teams. Yeah second game of the season if you

164
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:10,400
couldn't get ramped up to play the Chiefs then what are you doing? Yeah.

165
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,560
I see that. Well there's our second game we disagree on. That's good. Okay good.

166
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:22,120
Last of the noon games 6-5 Arizona at 9-2 Minnesota. Still feels weird

167
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:27,640
to say 9-2 Minnesota doesn't it? It does. You might disagree with this I think Arizona's

168
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:36,520
gonna pull it off. 27-24. I picked Minnesota 28-17. Okay. Partly because it's

169
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:42,280
home. Partly because Arizona didn't do much last week. Yeah I'm gonna stick with

170
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,440
it. I probably yeah I'm probably not gonna get that right but I'm gonna stick

171
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:52,600
with it. Alrighty. First of the three excuse me three o'clock games we have

172
00:15:52,600 --> 00:16:01,160
the five and six Rams at the four and seven Saints. Well the Saints are playing

173
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:08,200
better. Yeah. There's only one win off in their records. Yeah. Yeah.

174
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:16,200
Derek Carr is he back? You know I don't know I think he is. Okay.

175
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:30,520
Who's playing New Orleans now? So Rams. Rams. Rams and New Orleans. I went Rams 16-3.

176
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:39,680
I'm gonna go Rams to 24-20. I intentionally picked 16-3 because both

177
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,520
teams are bad and I think they're gonna have a bad score. It's probably gonna be

178
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:48,640
an unfun game to watch. Yeah. Whichever portion of the country is required to

179
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:56,240
watch that game or the next one. Sorry about your luck. Yeah. The second game at the three

180
00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:01,680
o'clock spot is five and six Tampa at three and eight Carolina. Again isn't

181
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:12,320
gonna be very much fun to watch I don't think. No. Tampa. Mm-hmm. 35-24.

182
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:18,960
Nice score. Yep. I went lower scoring I went 17-10. Might happen like that too.

183
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,920
Yeah I don't know why. They'll be playing in Carolina so there's probably

184
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:29,920
gonna be maybe five or six hundred people in the stands. I just remember

185
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,800
last week when the Chiefs played Carolina and they showed the stands it

186
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:39,280
was like a game at Arrowhead. It was all red and white and gold. Yeah. Like it's

187
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:43,520
not that the Chiefs fans traveled that well it's the fact that there were so

188
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,800
many tickets available because it's Carolina. People are just like

189
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:54,120
they're going you know what we go we can go visit Aunt Gertrude while we're there

190
00:17:54,120 --> 00:17:59,400
or something you know. Yeah. Yeah. Whenever we have that many tickets available for

191
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,400
that not that much money people start to plan vacations little mini vacations

192
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,920
around. Yeah. Yeah. So and also that's the only way some people are gonna get to

193
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,080
watch the game. Yeah. It's live. I mean to watch the Chiefs play live. Yeah I imagine the

194
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:16,120
tickets weren't all that much so the airfare was more reasonable if you aren't

195
00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:22,240
spending much on the game tickets. The cash in their Southwest card points and off they were.

196
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,800
All right now the only game at three o'clock that's probably gonna be worth

197
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:31,880
watching is nine and two at Philly at eight and five at Baltimore. Let's hope

198
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:36,940
we get that game. Yes I want to see that game too. If it's any of the

199
00:18:36,940 --> 00:18:42,280
other two then I'm just gonna go do something else. Yeah.

200
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:50,560
Shoo. I think I'm gonna have to go with Philly because Baltimore has just not

201
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:55,280
been playing that well. They haven't. Philly's got a good defense and their

202
00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:01,920
offense is on fire right now. Saquon Barkley. Yeah. Oh yeah. Oh he is. I'm gonna say

203
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:11,760
32 to 28. That would be nice. Yeah it would. Yeah I just think that Baltimore

204
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,800
is starting to really come back to earth big time. Yeah. You know even though I

205
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:21,720
agree for some reason I picked Baltimore in this game. I think Philly is due for a

206
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:28,240
letdown. I think Baltimore is pissed off enough at home that they are gonna try

207
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:34,600
to go all out so I'm picking Baltimore to pull it out 21-13. I you know. It's

208
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,160
gonna require a lot from Baltimore's defense to hold Philly to 13 points. Yeah

209
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:46,040
yeah. I'm being bold. I get it. I mean I like your pick a lot and it almost makes

210
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:51,160
me want to change mine but no we got to be different on some games. Yeah. So. All

211
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:58,800
right for the Sunday night game 5 & 6 San Francisco at 9 & 2 Buffalo. At Buffalo.

212
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,480
At Buffalo. Sunday night. It's gonna be cold. There's gonna be a lot of snow on the

213
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:07,120
ground. Yeah I don't know if Brock Purdy's back. I don't know if McCaffrey's back or

214
00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:17,160
nothing but I'm gonna go with Buffalo also. 33-17. It's not even gonna be close.

215
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:25,120
I agree but I made it a little more emphatic. I went 30 to 7. I could see San

216
00:20:25,120 --> 00:20:30,600
Francisco getting up there and just being unable to handle the cold and the

217
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:35,320
crowd. I could too. And the night air and all that. I don't know I just kind of

218
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:40,440
feel like San Francisco could have a really really bad game. I could see that

219
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,600
very easily but I'm gonna stick with my yeah you know I'm not I'm not changing

220
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,160
it that's what I thought at first. Although you make more sense. We both

221
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:52,040
picked the same team it's just I've had a wider immersion I guess. Yeah well yeah

222
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,720
we'll see what happens. All right Monday night football 3 & 8

223
00:20:55,720 --> 00:21:04,840
Cleveland at 7 & 5 Denver. There's been some good historic games between these two. Yeah.

224
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:10,600
I think I'm gonna go with Denver still. Even though Cleveland's been playing

225
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,360
very well with Jameis Winston I think they're gonna get enough pressure on

226
00:21:14,360 --> 00:21:24,160
Winston to make him throw interceptions. Yeah. And fumble. Yeah I

227
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:29,600
could see turnovers. Yeah so I'm gonna say 31. I'm doing a lot of 30s this week.

228
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:37,640
Yeah 31 to 24. All right I picked Denver 30 to 10. I think

229
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,160
Cleveland's gonna get a debt back down to earth moment and Denver's been

230
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,560
playing well and on a Monday night football at home I think they're not

231
00:21:46,560 --> 00:22:00,320
gonna hold back at all. Okay. That's what I got. What is it?

232
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:06,040
No it's just I just did something weird on the recording it's not gonna affect

233
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:10,360
anything. Oh I'm gonna have my audio-tonic crash on me in the middle of

234
00:22:10,360 --> 00:22:14,640
that. Oh I've been having that too. Oh you too? Yeah I've discovered that if you

235
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:22,080
have more than two large audio files open it gets unstable. Maybe that's what's

236
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:26,120
going on. Yeah. I'll have to check. So the other day I had like four or five and I

237
00:22:26,120 --> 00:22:36,080
was doing a mix and it just kept wonking out on me and so. Yeah. Okay let's see

238
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:44,080
where were we? So that's it that's all 16 games. We were different on four of

239
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:48,120
them. Okay that's good. Yeah. That's good because that's going to be the swing

240
00:22:48,120 --> 00:22:56,520
boat. We'll probably miss a lot more than that. Yeah we will. Yeah of course.

241
00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:03,240
All right well interesting games this week not that many like really premier

242
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:09,000
games but the ones that are premier are gonna be pretty interesting. Yeah. So all

243
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:14,560
right how about some bullet points? Yes indeed. Then we have your what-ifs. Yeah

244
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:19,880
yep. I figure we'll go ahead and do the bullet points first and then the what-ifs

245
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:26,680
afterwards. Okay. And let me find the bullet points for here. Oh I got the

246
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:31,840
music creep stuff but that's not gonna happen till tomorrow. Okay. Not gonna have

247
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,640
enough time today so this means that I need to find my bullet points for this

248
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:47,760
week for this segment. All you know oh here it is here it is okay it's usually

249
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:57,880
two pages this is one page. Okay sorry about that. All right first bullet point.

250
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,680
Who do you believe will receive home-filled advantage in the AFC? Kansas

251
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:10,880
City. Kansas City. Yeah. Who do you think will get home-filled advantage in the

252
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:19,560
NFC? Who? Damn. That's it's between Detroit, Minnesota and Philly right now.

253
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:25,960
Uh-huh. I think. I'm gonna have to stick with Detroit the hot hand. I think so too. I think

254
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:30,240
Minnesota would be the first one I'd eliminate from those three. Yeah and then

255
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:35,520
Philly would be second. Yeah. I think the title game the championship game might

256
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:40,680
very well be Philly against Detroit. Hopefully in Detroit. Yes. That would be

257
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:46,440
nice. Oh that'd be great. I could enjoy that. I could too. Although last year

258
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:51,120
wasn't didn't San Francisco have to travel to Detroit? Yeah I think so. And

259
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:55,960
they beat Detroit there. Yeah. Yeah cuz um Detroit got off to a hell of a lead

260
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,480
and looked like they were just gonna smash into nothing. Yeah and then their

261
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,680
habit of going for it on fourth down bit them in the butt. Bit them in the ass. Yeah.

262
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,920
Yeah. Yeah. Well we'll see. Yeah we'll see. They're not invincible at home and

263
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,300
especially against a team that's really well coached. Yeah. And has a nice even

264
00:25:12,300 --> 00:25:19,040
balance of players. Yeah. A physical team. Yeah physical team. All right in the

265
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:24,240
NFC will there be a Dark Horse or surprise team that will make some

266
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:32,760
noise in the playoffs? Playoffs. Playoffs. Um originally I gave that title to

267
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:37,440
Pittsburgh. Uh-huh. But I think Pittsburgh is gonna make the playoffs anyway. I do

268
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:42,360
too. They're kind of what we expect. Um so I'm gonna switch that to Houston. I think

269
00:25:42,360 --> 00:25:46,680
Houston is going to do more in the playoffs than people expect. I agree. My

270
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:51,400
nose is cold. I think they'll go farther. Yeah I know my got my hands in my pocket. So I'm

271
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,520
waiting to see when it starts raining. I just let you know why I have my hands

272
00:25:54,520 --> 00:26:02,120
over my nose. I didn't fart. My nose is cold. So I'm gonna pick Houston to be this

273
00:26:02,120 --> 00:26:08,360
playoff surprise. Playoffs. Playoffs. Yeah I agree. Houston. I think Houston could

274
00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:11,800
possibly make a run at the title game if they play right. Yeah. But they're gonna

275
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,160
have to do everything better. Yeah at this point I see Kansas City handling

276
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:21,040
Houston very very handily when when they come here to play. And we will find that

277
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:25,320
out coming up. Yeah. I think isn't that a Monday night game I think or something like that? I'll have to check. I think it's a

278
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:30,080
national game. It's definitely gonna be a national game. Yeah. Yeah the young and the

279
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:36,240
old even though Mahomes is an old. True but this you know C.J. Stroud is in the

280
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:41,800
Mahomes image. Well that's what everybody compared him to. It's the young versus the original. Last year they

281
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,440
compared him to it so now everyone has this vision of he's up and coming.

282
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:52,200
Even though Mahomes isn't going anywhere. Probably not. Hopefully not. Yeah.

283
00:26:52,200 --> 00:27:03,840
So alright let's see. Oh okay I got one here. That was AFC. That was AFC. Will there be

284
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,400
will there be a dark horse or a surprise team that will make some noise in that

285
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:22,560
AFC? Yeah. Green Bay I think. They're not gonna win the division with Detroit and

286
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,040
Minnesota in the division. They're not gonna win it. No they're gonna go in a wild

287
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:31,600
card. Yeah and it's not gonna be all that easy to get a wild card but I see

288
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:36,840
Green Bay getting in the playoffs and playoffs playoffs and they probably

289
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:46,400
won't get any home games but they'll be tough. I agree. Okay. The fun part is if

290
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:55,600
I'm wrong. Yeah who cares. Yeah who cares. Yeah Green Bay is probably the dark horse. Yeah. And if

291
00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:01,000
Minnesota is in flip-flops and Minnesota is a wild card and Green Bay gets the

292
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,860
second I could see Minnesota maybe being somewhat of a dark horse too. Yeah yeah

293
00:28:05,860 --> 00:28:08,640
because Green Bay could very definitely be knocked out of the playoffs all

294
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:13,200
together. Yeah and Tampa if Tampa makes it I think they could surprise a couple.

295
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,660
That's true I kind of discounted them on their five and six record but yeah they

296
00:28:16,660 --> 00:28:20,640
could they could still kind of get in at 11 and six. Yeah they could. So we'll see.

297
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:28,040
Alright. Cool. Okay some players signed jerseys for referees. Should that be

298
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:35,080
allowed? No. I agree. I agree 100%. That is wrong. Yeah. Because then you owe that

299
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,880
person a favor whether it's outwardly talked about or not. Uh-huh. Psychologically.

300
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:45,160
Oh this guy's so nice. I mean I look at this the same as rich people buying

301
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:50,800
gifts for the cops. It's raining now. Oh it is raining. Yep. Alright. Cute. Okay.

302
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:57,240
But yeah rich people buying buying the cops gifts. Yeah. You know rich people

303
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,920
buying politicians gifts. Same thing. It's the same thing you're buying influence. Same

304
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:06,400
exact thing. Yeah. Okay I agree. You know I think the the officials have every

305
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,440
right to go bid on those signed jerseys if they want to buy one from the

306
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:16,280
store. Yeah. But to be just given it by the player. No. No. That's bribery. That's

307
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:21,680
graft. That's corruption. It is. Bribery. That's a good way of putting it. It's modern-day bribery.

308
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:26,080
And everyone who sees that you should you should pay attention and say the

309
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:31,640
NFL is okay with this. The NFL is okay with Pat Mahomes giving some NFL

310
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,440
official the greatest gift that he'll ever get to give it to his dying 10

311
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:40,120
year old son or whatever. Yeah. You think that official is ever gonna call bad

312
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:45,480
against Mahomes again? No. The NFL is allowing this so keep that in mind when

313
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,640
you start complaining about things being crooked or the Chiefs getting influence.

314
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,400
Because that's the way it would happen. It's not something they're going to

315
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,760
talk about. It's going to be something where they're like you know. For all we

316
00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:00,260
know that the officials are all going over to Patrick's and Kelsey's house for

317
00:30:00,260 --> 00:30:04,200
dinner twice a week. Yeah. And you know if there's nothing illegal or against

318
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,800
rules again about it then don't complain because the NFL is okay with it. Yeah.

319
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,920
That's right. So as long as the NFL is okay with it why are we complaining? I

320
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:17,840
agree. You either watch or don't watch but quit complaining. Yeah. It is. Of course I

321
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:22,560
complain all the time. I do too. I'm an utter hypocrite. I freely admit that I

322
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:27,040
complain all the time but I still watch. Yeah. So. And as we were talking it's

323
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,560
much easier to tell people how to live their lives than it is to live the life

324
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,880
the way we're. Yeah like I always said like I said in the car the person giving

325
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:39,280
you advice look at them first. Yeah. See what their life is like. So easy to

326
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:43,160
preach so hard to believe. Yeah most people I find that a lot of people maybe

327
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,880
not most but a lot of people that preach to you don't have anything going on

328
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:54,640
right. Yeah. So anyhow. All right. Do you believe psychologically? Fucking spell

329
00:30:54,640 --> 00:31:01,680
check. That's AI. Isn't it wonderful? It's AI. I can't wait for them to drive my car for me. I

330
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,040
don't know how they got that word. Anyhow okay. Do you believe psychologically that

331
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:13,360
the home team has an advantage in the Super Bowl? No. Doesn't make a difference. Okay. I don't

332
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,440
even know why they bother. No I don't know why they do either because I mean

333
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:25,880
the Chiefs won in both times and three times in white. And really you have one

334
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:30,520
end zone painted for one team and one end zone paint for the other. Yeah. I guess

335
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:35,480
it makes a difference in the coin toss who gets to call it. Yeah I guess so.

336
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,840
Because the visitor I guess gets to call it. Well I mean you keep that and who

337
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:44,200
cares. Yeah and why with very few exceptions you could have both teams

338
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,840
wear their home jerseys and it wouldn't be an issue. Yeah I think it'd be fine if

339
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,840
they did that. Yeah I mean if the Jets and the Eagles were in the Super Bowl that

340
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,640
would be tough because they're both wearing pretty close to the same shade.

341
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:59,920
The Chiefs wore white two times in the Super Bowl and then they wore red I think against

342
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:05,160
Philly. They wore white in the Super Bowl four when they beat Minnesota. Oh yeah they

343
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:10,360
did. Mm-hmm. Yeah that's why all my jerseys are white. Because they got all muddy. Chiefs jerseys. Yeah.

344
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:18,240
Okay do you think players look at the betting line and react to it? Yes. I do too.

345
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:23,000
Not all of them but a certain amount do. Yeah they look at it as a matter of are

346
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,080
they respecting me or not? Yeah yeah it's not a matter of place of the bet it's

347
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,480
like well you know I'm how does everyone think we're gonna do it's a matter of

348
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,640
curiosity. It's no different from me going online and checking how many

349
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:41,440
downloads we have of certain episodes. Oh yeah that's right. Yeah I keep track. Little ego, little interest.

350
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:47,920
Little way to measure yourself. One way that I see how well we're

351
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:53,480
doing at least on the douchebags is the hate mail. Yeah that's a good indicator.

352
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,760
The hate mail the more hate mail you get the better you're doing. It means you're

353
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:02,440
reaching people. Yeah. You're getting a reaction out of them. They're not

354
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:06,720
snoring through your podcast. Yeah. Like that son of a bitch how dare you say that.

355
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:13,440
It's like oh you listen? Yeah. To build off your thing about the home team for

356
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:18,080
the Super Bowl how about we get rid of the coin toss at the beginning of the

357
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:23,160
game. You can have one for overtime but just make it for the visiting team just

358
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,260
presume they won the coin toss and they get to cheese. So don't worry about the

359
00:33:27,260 --> 00:33:31,760
whole ritual of a coin toss just the visiting team gets to pick. That would be

360
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:36,400
great but you know how much money's placed on the coin toss? That'll never happen.

361
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:41,160
But imagine a team deciding during the week okay when we get there we're gonna

362
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,520
take the ball in the second half so we're gonna be on defense first half

363
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,640
let's prepare for that. Yeah yeah that's true. That would be an advantage for the

364
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,160
teams but as you said there's money to be made betting on the coin toss and

365
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:57,080
then what people what teams will do once the coin toss happens so they're not

366
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,560
they're never gonna give up a revenue stream. I got I got another one for you

367
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:06,440
too. Okay the coin toss also leads to this if the Chiefs win it all sudden

368
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,880
their percentage of winning the game probably goes up by 30 40 percent. Yep. So

369
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,520
that's a bet right there. Also someone comes in goes oh they won the coin toss.

370
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:20,760
All right you know. And it gives league an opportunity to sell copies of the

371
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,520
commemorative coin that they used for the coin toss. Oh yeah that's right. Another revenue stream.

372
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:30,060
And they do do that. Yes yeah so yeah if there's money to be made that's what the

373
00:34:30,060 --> 00:34:38,440
league will do. I want to invest in McRibsauce not a coin toss. And a half gallon jug.

374
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:46,960
Because we're Americans. Why a half gallon jug? Because we're Americans.

375
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:57,760
So anyhow. All right. If Christmas Day Netflix is another disaster should they ever be

376
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:03,840
allowed to broadcast games solely? Yeah but I think they should put minimum

377
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:09,840
technology requirements in place and if they don't have it in place like four

378
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:14,960
weeks prior to the game switch to a different network or channel or something.

379
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:19,920
Okay that sounds good. You know make it to where if the streaming service is

380
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:24,400
gonna carry the game they've got to do it as reliably and well as the broadcast

381
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:29,080
networks do or they get it pulled. And they don't get their money back.

382
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:33,120
Yeah it's like no you just lost it. Put your technology where your money is

383
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:37,520
where your mouth is so the fans don't get screwed. I agree. But of course that's

384
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:44,160
not the way it's gonna go. No no no no. Money talks. Yeah. So okay do you believe

385
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:48,760
all this segregating of the networks and what games they get might be leading to

386
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:55,160
a pay-per-game system? I think so. You subscribe to ten different services or

387
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:59,880
you just pay for the games you want to watch. Yeah. You only pay for what you

388
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:08,240
need like Liberty Mutual says. Well cable and satellite TV resisted that to this

389
00:36:08,240 --> 00:36:13,220
day of letting you pick individual channels and build from there. Yeah. They

390
00:36:13,220 --> 00:36:16,360
insist that you buy if this is the channel you want you're gonna get ten

391
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:21,280
channels you don't want to have to pay for them too. Well. I think the NFL

392
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:27,000
probably would want to keep doing that because they want to get an app and you

393
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,960
pay for the subscription and then you get all the games so that's the only way

394
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:35,000
you're gonna get all the games on one platform. Yeah yeah because if you had to

395
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,560
subscribe to like eight different streaming services to get the games then

396
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:45,320
that's just outrageous. Well everybody now basically has internet that supports

397
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:52,120
TV. TV internet that you could get online games like that on your TV. Yeah. So I see

398
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:56,720
an app being really popular too. Yeah. They'd be like well yeah you can do this

399
00:36:56,720 --> 00:37:02,360
but the best thing to do is an app. Yeah but you know they're gonna have to come

400
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:10,120
up with a solution for like some of the games that are coming up like what's a

401
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:17,560
bad one. Like a blowout game like Vegas at KC. You know there are some people

402
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,480
gonna watch and others are like I don't care about that and they're just not

403
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:25,600
gonna watch but if it's the only game on they're gonna watch. But if they're

404
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:30,200
streaming everything they're gonna find something else to do. So that the NFL

405
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,040
would lead themselves open to a lot of games being unsupported and under watched

406
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:40,400
because they gave us that choice. Do you think they care? If it affects their

407
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,880
bottom line yeah. Yeah but I'm not sure if it would enough on the on the high

408
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,160
side they're getting more money on the low side they're getting less money. I

409
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:52,720
think there's less money to be lost than to be gained. Especially if you do

410
00:37:52,720 --> 00:37:58,240
dynamic pricing. Yes. Like a highly desirable game that if you bought the

411
00:37:58,240 --> 00:38:01,720
streaming rights you know six weeks ago you paid this price but if you buy it

412
00:38:01,720 --> 00:38:05,560
this week then you know it's ten times as much because it's way more popular.

413
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,640
That is a good point. That would be something that would make it more

414
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,960
worthwhile that way they'd make money on the more popular games that they're

415
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,040
losing on the less popular games. And Americans proved they put up with

416
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:19,840
dynamic pricing. Yeah. They do? Yeah. I mean why else were the Eagles with their

417
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:26,480
with their bullshit you know playing the music in the background not even

418
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:32,400
performing live make thousands of dollars a ticket. Yeah and you know we

419
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,080
get it the other way around because you know there's venues that they're

420
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,680
desperate sell tickets they discount them heavily on game day. Yeah that's true.

421
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,720
So we get the positive side so that kind of makes it legal for them do it the

422
00:38:43,720 --> 00:38:48,600
other way around is jack the prices up. Let's say like last year that first

423
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:56,200
playoff game against Miami the 30 below one we get tickets for $30. Yeah? Yeah.

424
00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:00,760
That's true. Now what they couldn't do like if you're attending the game if you

425
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,800
buy that you know they have to leave parking the same. Yeah. And the

426
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,640
concessions they can't raise those prices just for you. Those are prone to

427
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:14,680
dynamic. There's also surveillance pricing which is basically how you get

428
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,960
car insurance because they look at you specifically and figure out what how

429
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,920
you're going to drive what you're going to do and what you can afford to pay and

430
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:25,720
then they quote your rate on that. Surveillance pricing for everything else

431
00:39:25,720 --> 00:39:30,200
is like you go to a movie and the person in front of you pays ten bucks to get in

432
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,000
and they size you up and see what kind of car you drove in and they think this

433
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:38,600
guy can afford 25 and he probably will pay it so they'll charge you 25. That's

434
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:42,760
surveillance pricing everybody gets an individualized price based on what's the

435
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:47,680
most they'll pay. I could see the NFL going that route. Yeah it's gonna be

436
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,200
interesting because they have different options on everything and what they're

437
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,800
gonna be looking at is what is gonna be mainstream that they can spread

438
00:39:54,800 --> 00:40:00,240
everywhere. Yeah. And people will you know do like okay that's what I think maybe an

439
00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:04,840
app might be in play. Yeah there there is a tipping point between if you do all

440
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:09,960
these things you'll get more money but it's an immense bureaucracy nightmare

441
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,560
to keep track of all that so here's the simple solution and we'll still making

442
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,960
enough money to make a worthwhile. So if you're an app would fill in right there.

443
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:20,800
Yeah if you're elderly and they're not that tech savvy you don't have to there's

444
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,360
other ways to get the game but if you're younger and you want everything you're

445
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:29,280
like oh I'll just buy the app what is it per year okay. That's that brings up

446
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:34,440
another industry point I'll be brief on this but up till now people with

447
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:39,600
something to sell have focused on a certain target audience or demographic

448
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:44,360
and pretty much anyone outside that they don't care about. Uh-huh. But if you make

449
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:49,000
it super easy to offer your product to everyone and make it super easy for them

450
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,420
to get it now you don't have to pick a target demographic. You do with your

451
00:40:53,420 --> 00:40:57,080
advertising but as far as selling your product people you can sell to everybody.

452
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,920
Yeah and the target demographics of Payton NAS because of this right here

453
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:08,000
there's stations in markets they get huge numbers but they're everybody. Yeah.

454
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:12,360
They don't have a target audience that they can sell they go okay I got men 25

455
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:17,320
to 54 yeah so okay we're gonna sell this and this and this to them. Yeah. These

456
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,680
advertisers know where they're going for it and then they can sell to. And that's

457
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,440
where the technology comes in really handy where they can they can send

458
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:29,640
individual and personalized commercials to your house. Uh-huh. Over the cable

459
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,760
network and the guy next to you is getting a different ad that appeals to

460
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,840
him and the guy down the street is getting a different ad that appeals to

461
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:41,280
him and that way advertisers can pick individual households to advertise to

462
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:46,360
on the fly. Yeah and the CUME rating will sell that you know a CUME rating is

463
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:50,840
everybody no matter what the demographic is. Yeah. That would solve that too by

464
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:56,200
having one platform that everybody goes to. Yeah. You see because like you said they

465
00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:00,760
don't care if it's a young girl and old man watching they can figure all that

466
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,640
logistics out by your app and go okay well we have all their information so

467
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:08,360
we're gonna send them this we're gonna send them that. It would actually work

468
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:12,680
very well like that too because they have all the information right there.

469
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:17,480
You can do one of two ways basically I mean if Apple wants to

470
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:21,880
advertise to their demographic they'll pick a show that attracts the kind of

471
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:26,400
people that are gonna buy Apple phones and they advertise during that. Yeah. The

472
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:32,480
other way to do it is you have a program that appeals to an enormous range of

473
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:37,960
people therefore you line up about 10 or 20 different advertisers to get

474
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:42,040
individual ads out and instead of everyone seeing the Apple ad it's

475
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:46,800
everybody sees their own personalized ad from one of the 10 or 15 yeah

476
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:52,480
advertisers. Yep. You can make just as much money doing it that way. I agree. You

477
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:57,280
don't want anything? No. I'm gonna order a hot coffee because I'm cold. Yeah my feet are

478
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:01,280
starting to get cold. Not because I'm hungry but they cut or not

479
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:05,840
thirsty but yeah because I'm cold. Anyhow go ahead I'm sorry. Oh that was that was

480
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:13,640
about it. Okay let's see the next one. What current commentators should consider

481
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:28,200
retiring? Oh Romo. He won't but he should. No I agree. I agree. My wife was commenting just this

482
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:35,320
last game that Troy Aikman seems kind of out of it. You know yeah he seems

483
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:42,440
disengaged. He does. He does. I think he gets distracted. He certainly acts

484
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,800
distracted and sometimes he talks about something that we're already done with

485
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:50,520
and you know everyone's moved on. I've noticed that. I have to

486
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:54,720
think and go oh oh he was talking about that a couple of plays ago. Yeah yeah

487
00:43:54,720 --> 00:43:57,840
it's like he comes up with things to say and he can't just let it go when the

488
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,760
topic moves on. It's like oh I have to say them because I thought of them. Yeah

489
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:09,320
yeah you're right. He is a I agree. Troy Aikman needs to look at the way that

490
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:15,400
he's doing his broadcasts or just step down. An interesting thing is when

491
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:22,560
they showed the was it Joe Buck and Troy Aikman is that the pair? Yeah. When they

492
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:26,760
showed them in the booth my wife looked at Troy Aikman and said in all

493
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:32,360
seriousness is Troy Aikman gay? Oh that's been speculated for years and years. And

494
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:36,720
I said I don't know but as far as I know there hasn't been any mention of that

495
00:44:36,720 --> 00:44:40,440
and she looked for a man and said I'm getting a real gay vibe off of him.

496
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:44,640
Evidently a lot of people don't because he it's been rumored that he

497
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:50,960
was for years. And supposedly he is not. Yeah I mean it never occurred to me you

498
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:56,840
know I don't care either way. I don't either. But it was just interesting to me

499
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:01,960
that you know my wife who has absolutely no agenda would just you know pick up on

500
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:07,960
that and say huh. Yeah no no no that's what I find that really interesting

501
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:13,440
because yeah that's been speculated for years and you can look it up I mean but

502
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,840
I do believe he has wife and children I know that doesn't mean anything. Yeah

503
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:20,400
doesn't necessarily mean anything but but I think he's been pretty much

504
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:26,360
denying this the whole time so I mean you got to believe him I guess. Yeah I

505
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:30,640
mean yeah I mean they don't have any other proof. And especially since it

506
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:38,640
doesn't make any difference. Yeah yeah so exactly so could that have came from

507
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:43,160
someone that didn't like him? I imagine so I mean these rumors can even start

508
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:48,080
from something as simple as he breaks up with a girlfriend that everyone thinks

509
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:52,800
is super hot and someone says gee why did he break up with her is he gay or

510
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:56,240
something and then it just takes off from there becomes a whole big thing.

511
00:45:56,240 --> 00:46:00,800
Yeah that's true. Yeah okay so there are a lot of really stupid origins to some of

512
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:05,000
these things. Well I mean your wife getting the vibes though is what gets me.

513
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:12,200
Yeah it's funny how things just change over time. Yeah and I mean women are

514
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:16,520
really good at getting that vibe too is the thing it's like hmm. Yeah you know

515
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:21,920
it's they talk about people having gay dark. Yeah and I think it's more for women.

516
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:28,640
I guess so because you know there's been a lot of times when I was totally

517
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:32,680
oblivious and everybody else around me was picking up on it was like oh really

518
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:42,160
I guess I'm just not looking for it because I mean I've had girlfriends at Val and stuff go oh yeah yeah you know he's gay and I'm like how do you know?

519
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:46,200
Yeah and it's just like it's like something that they do I mean maybe

520
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:50,880
they're mannerisms yeah I don't know. It can be wrong though I worked at one

521
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:57,920
station and my best friend there Paul is gay and he and I would talk a lot about

522
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:03,000
it and he once asked me about a certain other employee and he said you know the

523
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:07,840
guy on that route have you got ever gotten any indication that he's gay and

524
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:14,000
I said no and he said the reason I ask is he does a lot of the things that

525
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:18,920
older gay men do and I didn't ask him what they were but you know he would

526
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:23,720
know because he was an older gay man so but he says there are certain mannerisms

527
00:47:23,720 --> 00:47:28,400
you see I trust their gaydar yeah yeah but he was dead wrong apparently

528
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:32,480
because this guy you know as far as I know that wasn't how he felt or what he

529
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:36,700
was. I think it's very possible to have that type mannerism and personality not

530
00:47:36,700 --> 00:47:41,200
actually be gay yeah I'm because you know not everybody behaves the same way

531
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:44,800
under similar circumstances but I just thought that was interesting I mean never

532
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:50,120
said what it was that made him think that this other guy was gay and I didn't

533
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,960
care anyway. Now like I said I don't have the gaydar per se that I know of. But even gay

534
00:47:54,960 --> 00:48:00,440
men never their gaydar could be wrong sometimes so that's encouraging that it

535
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:05,560
is fallible. One thing that I have noticed is is the reservedness and the

536
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:12,220
unwillingness to say something at first. The pause. Yeah if you're if you've had

537
00:48:12,220 --> 00:48:15,600
to live your whole life thinking about the next thing you say to avoid

538
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:22,760
giving away too much that tends to alter your behavior. I mean I do that a lot of times.

539
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:28,040
They're more worried about how they're spoken. Yeah. They're just a guy. Yeah yeah

540
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:35,000
but I mean I grew up with the knowledge that anything I said around my family

541
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:38,840
was going to be challenged and I had to be ready to back it up defend it

542
00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:43,960
basically debate it. Debate it yeah. So there was a lot of times I would pause and think

543
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:48,200
about what I was going to say and then make it as generic and bland as possible

544
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:53,800
so no one would challenge me. So there are all sorts of reasons to pause and

545
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,160
very carefully think about what the next thing you're gonna say is. If you grow up

546
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:01,560
around somebody with a violent temper or somebody who's a narcissist you're

547
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:12,680
constantly worrying about the next thing you say. Yes I get that. Yeah. Yeah. Okay

548
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:20,280
let's see the last one I had and it's just a joke. Yeah. Should Carolina apologize to the league?

549
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:24,600
I think they should. I think it's Jacksonville that needs to apologize. Well yeah Jacksonville.

550
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:28,440
Really people didn't expect that much from Carolina but they expected a lot

551
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:32,280
more from Jacksonville this year. I think they owe the league an apology and a Whitman Sampler.

552
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:36,600
Yeah yeah and anybody who bet on Jacksonville at the beginning of the season

553
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:45,600
should get a rebate. Yes and a voucher for future. A voucher would be good yeah.

554
00:49:45,600 --> 00:50:00,600
Yeah yeah. They'll buy one bet one free kind of thing. Yeah yeah. Okay I've got some what ifs.

555
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:07,320
Okay. So I think I was into the bullet points. And then I had some just interesting things I

556
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:15,400
discovered during the passing week if we have time. Okay well okay mine should go pretty quick

557
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:22,840
here. So okay football what ifs. What if Joe Montana stayed with the 49ers and Steve Young

558
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:31,560
was traded. Wow fewer rings. I don't think Montana would have won. The other ring. No.

559
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:39,400
That Young would have. Where Young only got one ring? He only got one ring. Oh okay. They

560
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:44,440
definitely would not have been the playoff force and the dynamic dynasty that they were. It was

561
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:50,120
George Seifert also. It was not Bill Walsh or not Bill. Yeah Bill Walsh. Yeah Bill Walsh stepped

562
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:57,400
down health reasons I believe. He stepped down and George Seifert was the heir apparent. Yeah but it

563
00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:02,560
wasn't quite the same team for a lot of obvious reasons. Some of the older people were growing a

564
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:10,240
little old on the vine too. Yeah yeah. So I would tend to say no also because Steve Young gritted

565
00:51:10,240 --> 00:51:16,680
that whole season and playoff out. Yeah. The biggest reason they won was because he made stuff

566
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:22,240
happen. Yeah yeah that's he definitely took the whole franchise on his back and pushed him into

567
00:51:22,240 --> 00:51:28,920
that win. At that point had been injured too many times of getting too older to do it anymore. Yeah

568
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:34,040
I agree I think so yeah they would not have had the playoff success from the Super Bowl. Playoff.

569
00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:42,860
Yeah Young gave them. Okay I agree with that. Okay um what if Andy Reid coached Tom Brady with the

570
00:51:42,860 --> 00:51:52,840
Patriots? Wow. That one right there I'm kind of like huh. Yeah it's gonna sound like a flip answer

571
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:59,960
but this is really what I think. Without Bill Belichick there to cheat they would not have had

572
00:51:59,960 --> 00:52:04,960
the success and Andy Reid wouldn't have gone up there and cheated like that. No he wouldn't have.

573
00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:12,400
I'm gonna give him three rings with him. Yeah and no undefeated season. Yeah no undefeated season.

574
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:18,000
Well they didn't get that anyhow. No they got an undefeated regular season. Regular season. And then

575
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:25,280
lost in the playoffs. Yeah but yeah I think without Belichick up there conspiring with Tom Brady to

576
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:32,720
cheat. Yeah. Because Brady was willing fully taking all the information that was illegally

577
00:52:32,720 --> 00:52:37,120
gotten. Yeah he was. He didn't care where it came from. He was an accomplice. Yeah he was definitely

578
00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:42,480
all the way in on it. So without that dynamic I don't see New England having nearly the dynasty

579
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:48,600
they have. I give them three rings. Yeah. Yeah. And also he would have been there another tier of three

580
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:55,480
years because he went to left under Reid. That's true. That's true. I'm gonna give him four rings.

581
00:52:55,480 --> 00:53:05,680
Yeah I could see that. Okay. All right next one. What would what would have happened if Patrick

582
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:16,920
Mahomes is drafted by Carolina? Probably about as bad as Chicago. Yep. Carolina doesn't know how to

583
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:22,840
develop a quarterback and they've been running the franchise as strictly a business venture for at

584
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:28,440
least the last five years. They don't really care if they win or make the playoffs or any of that.

585
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:33,560
It's just let's have let's fill the seats and sell a lot of merchandise and that's good enough. I

586
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:39,240
don't see Mahomes thriving in that situation. No me neither. Yeah he would have wound up being

587
00:53:39,240 --> 00:53:44,040
kind of an average quarterback there with flashes of brilliance. And I think someone like Andy Reid

588
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:48,600
would see something and go you know what let's trade for him and see what we can get. Shanahan

589
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:53,000
might have gotten him in San Francisco and that would be a whole different story in San Francisco.

590
00:53:53,000 --> 00:54:00,920
I agree. Yeah. Because pretty much their quarterbacks are really really good. They have been really good.

591
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:10,360
But Garoppolo could not dime that pass. Yeah. So they lost that one and then Brock Purdy under

592
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:15,800
pressure is a different quarterback. Yeah true. He could not force the ball to different people.

593
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:25,080
So yeah I yeah I think you're right. Interesting. What's interesting? Just what we're talking about.

594
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:34,200
Oh okay. All right. What if Bill Belichick was never a coach but the NFL commissioner?

595
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:43,000
Oh yeah. How do you like that little curveball? Well I hmm you know in a way he really seems like

596
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:48,440
the guy who he does doesn't he? He could get sleazy enough to be a good commissioner for the NFL.

597
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:52,840
Oh I think he'd do marvelous that. Yeah. And I think if he got pissed off at somebody that would

598
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:59,320
be that everyone would know not to piss him off. They'd be like look you can do anything but don't

599
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:07,720
piss that guy off in the big chair. He's like Vince McMahon would do. I think he would have done

600
00:55:07,720 --> 00:55:15,880
pretty well in Tagliabue's spot. Yeah. But for right now the commissioner is basically the

601
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:22,280
flunky of the owners. Yes. And Belichick wouldn't have been anybody's flunky. I agree. And Belichick

602
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:30,280
doesn't have the schmoozing power that Pete Rosell did or that Roger Goodell has. Yeah. If he

603
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:34,120
didn't like you and didn't want to schmooze you he'd tell you to fuck off and get out of his office.

604
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:42,040
Yeah. But he would have gotten a lot of things accomplished just by pure force of will and

605
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:46,440
being willing to be willing to be as dirty as possible. Yeah. Yep. It would have been a

606
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:52,600
different league but I think it would have been just as successful. Yep. Okay. Interesting. That

607
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:58,680
was a nice one to think about. Yeah I like that one a lot. Yeah. And then finally what if Josh

608
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:05,480
Allen was suddenly traded to Chicago right now? And Caleb Williams went to Buffalo but we can

609
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:09,800
get to that on the next one. Yeah. I don't think Josh Allen would thrive in Buffalo.

610
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:18,600
I mean he'd have success but that's not really his kind of team. I agree. Yeah.

611
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:25,640
Um it would be a mismatch. Yeah. Might work short term but long term nah. I agree.

612
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:34,920
He would be a bridge player at best. I agree. Okay. All right. You had some observations or something.

613
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:43,560
Something that I read about recently. Nothing to do with football of course. There's a class action

614
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:50,040
lawsuit that is being settled against Pyrex. That's the company that makes those oven proof glass

615
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:58,280
items. Apparently there was 110,000 glass measuring cups that went out printed made in USA

616
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:04,840
that were not made in USA. I bet that happens all the time. I'm sure it does but accidentally.

617
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:10,760
Pyrex just got caught but I'm absolutely positive it was not a mistake. They intentionally did that.

618
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:16,200
They would have to go and get the items that have already been made somewhere else and put that on

619
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:22,360
there or else have the other have the uh. So it's just going to be what it is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

620
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:31,640
Yeah. So they got caught. Also recently there was over 100,000 counterfeit Gibson guitars that came

621
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:36,760
into the country and that were seized. No shit. A lot of Gibsons are being counterfeited. Fenders.

622
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:41,800
Even Epiphone's are starting to be counterfeited now. Even the cheaper brand guitars are starting

623
00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:46,600
to be counterfeited. Wow. Because it's just it's super easy to counterfeit. It's like all these

624
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:54,600
t-shirts. Yeah. T-shirts are a huge market where if you have like the officially jerseys,

625
00:57:55,560 --> 00:58:02,760
the officially licensed adds like 50% cost to it because that's their cut. Yeah. And then

626
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:10,680
just if you get an official license it's an excuse to pay five times the price. Yeah. Yeah. And you

627
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:17,160
can't sell them unless they're officially licensed. Yeah. But they do. And you know it's

628
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:23,640
interesting to remember is the football games with the official NFL license and the ones without

629
00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:33,080
same price. Really? Yep. So not all of them do? It's because the price is fixed for video games.

630
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:39,160
Oh okay. Across the board all the competitors get together and fix a price and then EA has to just

631
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:46,120
eat the cost of the league official league tie-in. Okay. But of course the all the other football

632
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:50,440
games died out because nobody wanted to pay for them if they didn't have the real players in them.

633
00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:58,680
Yep. Players. But for a while there was a football version of the game coming out

634
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:06,680
with none of the player names and it cost just as much as the NFL version because people were

635
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:10,360
willing to pay it. And that's a price fix that you're talking about. Yeah. It's the price fix.

636
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:14,280
If you're going to sell this it has to cost this much. 60 bucks is the current price fixing.

637
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:21,720
Okay. That makes sense. Yeah. That's uh yeah. Um. Oh I saw

638
00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:27,640
an example of things becoming totally different from how they started out.

639
00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:35,480
Have you seen the commercials for Charmin ass wipe? Yeah. The blue cartoon bears and the red

640
00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:41,720
cartoon bears and that's years and years that they've been using these cute funny cartoon bears to

641
00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:48,040
advertise their product. Do you know how the ad campaign started? No. Why is it? It started out

642
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:54,440
with somebody saying does a bear shit in the woods? Yes and he uses Charmin to wipe his ass with.

643
00:59:55,160 --> 01:00:01,080
That's where honestly speaking that is where the ad campaign started. A bear shitting in the woods

644
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:06,280
and then using Charmin to wipe his ass. And now it has evolved into this happy little family of

645
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:13,800
cartoon bears that can't do without their Charmin. I asked this last night on the podcast. I'm going

646
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:19,240
to ask you who do you trust more? A talking box that wants you to wipe your ass and throw it in it

647
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:29,080
and mail it somewhere? Or a Gecko that sells you insurance or an emu? Oh god. I think I trust the emu.

648
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:36,840
I don't think none of the above. A little box that says hey take a shit wipe your ass and throw it in me and mail me.

649
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:43,080
Yeah they play it up on the commercial like it's some great thing but literally you're wiping your

650
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:49,480
ass on a cardboard box and mailing it. And mailing it. That's what you're doing. Do you know people

651
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:55,960
thought it was illegal to mail shit? No it isn't. There's your point right there. No. I delivered

652
01:00:55,960 --> 01:01:05,560
used tampons in the mail. I've delivered dead mice. I delivered used soiled panties. Oh you told us about that?

653
01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:14,040
Oh my god. Yeah. Nasty. I bet every time you're like you're looking at the package making sure

654
01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:18,360
there's not a leak or something. Anything that was lumpy or smelled bad it was like can I have a

655
01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:26,200
plastic bag to put this in? I've got to go get my other coffee or whatever. So hang on.

656
01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:40,120
Oh and speaking of wiping your fecal material in the box and mailing it away, 23andMe is continuing

657
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:49,640
to be parceled off in bankruptcy and there are now is a serious bidder to buy all of the DNA

658
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:56,520
information that everyone has sent in to 23andMe because your your privacy agreement was with

659
01:01:56,520 --> 01:02:03,240
23andMe and they don't exist anymore. So the DNA information they have on file for all these people

660
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:10,280
is up for sale. Oh my god. Yeah so be careful what you share with a company even if they promise they'll

661
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:15,080
never share it. That company could get bought tomorrow and your agreement's in the lingoid.

662
01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:18,360
We could focus in on that on the next podcast or whatever.

663
01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:27,640
Yeah isn't that crazy? No one ever bargained for that. No no and you know I thought about it at the

664
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:33,800
times like you want me to send my DNA into this company and they're not just going to throw it

665
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:37,800
away when they're done they're going to use it for whatever they want to use it for. I agree.

666
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:45,000
Yeah another good example of this remember the app Pokemon Go? Yeah. Okay that only existed because

667
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:51,320
there was a company that wanted to compete with Google Maps and they couldn't afford to send out

668
01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:56,920
a bunch of people or cars with cameras and they wanted to get mapping info for places where the

669
01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:03,400
Google Map cars couldn't go. So the way they did it was they invented a game called Pokemon Go that

670
01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:08,520
required you to open your camera give the app permission and then run around with your camera

671
01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:13,960
focused everywhere. Wow. Because you could only see the little Pokemon creatures if you looked at

672
01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:19,320
your phone with a camera. So every bit of time that you had your camera open and were playing

673
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:24,120
that game that was mapping data that was sent for free back to this company and that's what they

674
01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:29,720
wanted anyway. And if they had an area that wasn't you know they weren't getting enough mapping info

675
01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:35,160
on it they'd just go put some highly desirable fake creatures there and people would flood into that

676
01:03:35,160 --> 01:03:41,000
area with their phones and map it all out for them. Wow. We were being used like lab rats.

677
01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:48,600
That was the whole reason for the existence of Pokemon Go was to get us to provide free mapping

678
01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:54,840
data for them. And now that company is selling all that info off for millions and millions and

679
01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:59,960
millions of dollars and we gave it to them for free. All they had to do is give us a stupid

680
01:03:59,960 --> 01:04:09,480
simple little colorful game and we bought right in. All right is it ready to go then is it creeps?

681
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:14,920
Yeah. Okay well we'll have to do the intro again I could not separate it and have it sound good at

682
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:20,440
all. Okay well not supposed to sound good anyway. Yeah that's true but I couldn't get it anyhow.

683
01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,480
Did you really sit down and listen to all that garbage that was being

684
01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:45,880
Do you actually believe one inch of it? I didn't think so. Hang on game over.
