Episode 9: I Hate When You Think

we got everything. Go ahead, Dan, I want to know how wait? How was Chicago? Chicago was great? You know as uh even though it rained the whole weekend, it was still it didn't matter when you're a Hall of Famer. Congratulation again, my man, Thank you, all right, thank you. If there's a gambling Hall of Fame, do you think you ever go in at Larry? I'm in it already, Dan, Oh you are? Yeah? Yeah, I'm waiting on the call. Our last paycheck was seventeen years ago. Down, I know,

I know. Well, what do you say when people say what do you do for a living? Laar Um A retired mortgage banker, just so I just speak the truth. Dan. Okay, would you consider like, would you say your profession now is gambling though are you retired? I would say, up to about four years ago, my profession was scambling, and um, now I don't need a profession anymore. Why is that?

But but I still gamble, yes, recreationally, recreationally? Yes? Okay, Well let's let's look back to what you did last week. You were seven and five. You are plus sixteen units, uh, minus one from last week, so you're up still six team units. Dylan plus two last week, and um, he's plus two overall for the season. So we got we got positives here. I like, all right, any games you want to look back on and bring up for one reason or another layer, Well, I have to bring up

the Odu game. I guess they straightened me out a little bit. I knew I should have teased lot Pack instead of taking him straight. They would have covered the tease. And I'm watching that game for no other reason than you said old dominion. I mean, come on, and then I'm going after they had one win that game. If all of us had thought about it, we said the word old dominion enough times. I think we kind of

willed it into existence that they were going to win. Yeah, but I find myself like, you know, I feel like I'm betting on these games because yeah, I want you guys to do well. And I'm watching Old Dominion against Louisiana Tech, and I went, how sad is this? Other people? Yeah, Dylan, did you have one? So this one's actually I didn't have. I don't think Laia or I had this game. But Dan, you actually talked about on the show this week, the

Florida State Clemson one. I was watching that game. I mean, that had to be if I would have jumped if I had Florida State. But that's right at the very end, the last play of the game, and the only way that you can lose is if Clemson scores a touchdown double zeros on the clock the hooking ladder defensive time. I mean, now that stuck out to me more than

any of my my losses personally. But I would think, look like the Rams and the Texans, because the Rams were up thirty eight to nothing and they're giving sixteen and a half, you've already moved on. Not that you bet this or Larry, but you've already moved on. I had a fourteen though, Dan, oh you did? You had the Rams at fourteen, right, and I had moved on, and I thought, come back, it was thirty eight nothing and they scored, and I guess they went for two. Yes,

Oh my god, you stuff out. This is why I don't bet. I mean, that's that's one where you turn and if you're if you had the Rams there, you probably turned the TV off and switched over Garden or whatever. The only reason why you were watching is because you had money on it. And then once you realize, okay, it's thirty eight nothing, let me see, let me start to you know, scan the dime that money into some

other game, all right. And then of course my two teas have lost with the Jets again, you know, well one still and jumped on the Bengals, and I should have just changed my bed. Okay, but you keep saying you don't bet on the Jets of the Giants. I bet against the Bengals and the teaser I had the Bengals in that teas I felt bad about cost me four units. It cost me six units, twelve units swing Cincinnati. Just I'm forgetting about Buffalo. And now I don't care

about them anymore. The bngles are my new Joe Barrows. You you just let the hell adjust to a field goal. They kick off you this four minutes ago in a game you're up four? How do you got picked off by a defensive lineman. The defensive lin'man knocked the ball in the air and intercepted on the tan yard line. Come on, Joe, how about handing out all You're just supposed to run the clock out there? All right? Uh?

College football picks this week, Dylan, I'll start with you. Yes, So for this week, I'm going I'm going big both sides. Um So for college this week? Two units, I got Liberty and Old miss over sixty eight. I've loved the Old miss overs this year, but the but the total has gone under in four of the last five games with it hasn't necessarily worked out, but I still I stand by it. And you're not good on over unders this year, I'm not, but I'm trying to get that

record back up six and nine. Now, um, Ohio State minus fourteen a half against Nebraska. Nebraska never does well against the spread against Ohioska. Now, and I think Ohio States, you know, making that big late season push to get into the final two. So um. And then Mississippi State plus five and a half against Arkansas. I figured out had to have an underdog against the spread and there somewhere in college um, and I like Mississippi States when playing better too. Um. And then I've got a couple

of one units. I've got tonight Louisiana Raging Cajuns versus Georgia State. Figure I'll double up on the Thursday night action. Um. So they're minus twelve, Georgia's State is going against the spread though they are just saying their last six games there five and one. Louisiana's frisky though, they're you're you're defying logic this week. Yeah, well so that's what my one of my realizations last week. It's like a Murphy's Law of week. It's like halfway through this season in Vegas,

seems like they've kind of got the lines dialed in. Yeah, you know, I don't know if I don't know if that really counts, thinking, yeah, okay, what else do you have? Um? And then also one unit, I got Iowa minus twelve against Northwestern and Baylor minus seven against TCU. Okay, bad lair you got college football. I don't have any straight bet college football. Have a couple of college games in three team teasers? Now, okay, do you want them now

or you want yeah? Go ahead? Okay? Um, well, first of all, I have the two units, but I think I'm gonna change it to three because I think you're gonna change my chiefs line. I mean, I don't know. I'm Dan. I'm up in Port Elizabeth or Cape Elizabeth, Maine right now. Um, so I'm dealing with Tuesday's Daily News that I got a Nork airport. Wait wait, wait, wait, wait in a paper? Wait wait? Do you have internet? I do on my phone? Yeah, I don't. Don't. Don't

do this. I'm going to make an excuse and say that you're looking at Tuesday's you know, New York Post or Daily News. You can go on the internet and look and see drafting. You know you're gonna move my chief line on me. Okay, what's the line you think you have? I have chiefs of minus three, and I know Aaron Rodgers. It's not my three, Larry, have you heard about the Aaron Rodgers situation. That's what I'm saying. I'm here now out of the game. I've got the

Chiefs at minus eight. Okay, so I'm on the sheet that I sent you. I'm getting rid of my Chiefs, bet, I don't want the game at all. And I'm changing my three team um three team teasers to three units as opposed to too because they just get me those two units back that I had on the Chiefs that I'm not gonna use anymore. So we have three teams, three units, Ohio State minus five. I think I get it at four and a half now, right then you just give us a dal in the four and at

fourteen and a half. Yeah, okay, let me change that four and a half over in the Rutgers game at twenty seven and a half and under tonight's NFL games, that just fifty six and a half. Okay. Then that's that's one three team to use. And the second three team teas is Wisconsin minus one and a half against Rutgers, Penn State minus a half against Maryland, Maryland and Dallas and the Pros plus two. Okay, you're nine and ten on the season on teasers. Just done. I know that's

that's what's killing me. All right, Let's go to the NFL. Dylan start with you. You've got a big bet coming up. Big bet, yep, I'm going Falcon's money line as underdogs plus two hundred so four units to win eight units against the Saints. It just seems like a prime letdown for the Saints. Also, New Orleans is always good against the spread against the Atlanta I know I'm this one. I know I'm six six of the last seven games, but I have like, no jamis there what Trevor Simeons

starting for the Saints. You know what, I'll take my chances and you know that's a big w for me. If it hits then, um so for two unit games, I've got the Jets plus tenant a half against the Colts tonight Thursday night football, primetime dog. Sticking with that trend. Your your dogs are great. Yeah, that's by far away. Were twelve and three with your primetime dogs. That's the only really useful and formation that I've gleaned from myself

this year. It's not Potter stumps in the back. Let's keep going, okay, Uh have Vikings at Ravens over fifty, um Bears plus six against the Steelers on Monday Night football. Oh you got your prime time their market. Um, and then I'm going back into the parlay well this week then were but I'm gonna try it third times a

charm this season. Um. So I got Ravens minus six against the Vikings, Bear's money line against the Steelers, and then forty niners plus one against the Cardinals, and that adds up to plus the thousands and ten to one. So I got two units on that to b two to win twenty if it hits. Wow, it's big. Yeah, okay, alright, um, And then I got to one unit bets Panthers plus three and a half against the Patriots and the Chargers

minus two against the Eagles. Okay, Chargers are four and one against the spread last five games on the road. Funk funky line with one man. Something's up, something's up, all right, bad lair Okay, Um, I have just all two unus, all two unus in the NFL. Saints minus five and a half, Pats minus three, Miami minus seven. Wait, let me check on the Patriots site. And I got minus three and a half according to draft Kings. That's fine.

Are you okay with that? Okay, yeah, yeah, okay. Miami minus seven, the Rams minus seven, and the Bears plus I had of the seven and I just hearded go and say it's six and a half. I got Bears at six. I got the Rams and minus seven and a half. I'm good with them keeping them. Okay, So Rams against the Titans Sunday Night football Miami minus six and a half, Bears plus six, and Chief's minus three. That's what you thought you were getting, but it's not

so Chiefs came out, so that's gone. Yeah. Yeah, I did my pick. I know, I know, I just wanted to make sure, Larry. I just want to make sure, Okay, okay, because like you know, you sometimes have revisions history where you're gonna go I said minus three and you gave me minus three. Yeah, no, we we we haven't had that yet this year. We're been pretty good this year. Dan. We're letting you make all the lawns. Dylan. Getting back

to that Clemson game. I know I didn't have it on your thing, but I had the over Oh you did that, Yeah that that made the overall. So yeah, yeah, if you you didn't want to have the under and f as yet, yeah, that was a bad beat on both. Yeah. Yeah. If oh my god, if you had given the points and you had the under. But on flip side of that, if you had the over and clems in the end of the game was election. I know we usually talk about bad beats. We never talked about Yeah, what's not

it's a good beat beat? What is the expression when you when you have one of those wins, Lair, because Dylan doesn't have those. But I just knew that was going to happen. Yeah, but like count, you account the great wins as you deserve that, and bad beats you you lament about for a couple of weeks. Yeah, the grass is less green on the other side usually in that that scenario. Yeah, but don't we don't. We don't have an expression when you win one of those games.

It's always a bad beat, goodnat I had I had one against Illan earlier the year I had Dallas given like five in overtime and they scored a touchdown. You know, that's not as bad as it used to be. But because now you can score a touchdown just to end the game, rule that win by six was like an incredible win overtime. Once again, Lara, I'm just trying to come up with a term for when you win a game like that. That was it. I don't need you to pat yourself on the back and tell me that

you I'm trying to think. Uh next week, I'll have a term for you. That's it. That's all I got, Larry. You know, let you enjoy main and you know, good luck up there, Thank you sir, and good luck fight er. Find some Wi fi all right, damn by fight h
