Speaker 3This is a podcast call twenty five wist stuck.
Speaker 4In funball and they are whizz so yet it's too bad?
Speaker 5But what did you expect?
Speaker 3It's a podcast called twenty five bis Souls.
Speaker 4Twenty line World.
Speaker 5Everybody, all right, hit it?
Thank you.
Speaker 1Not that college basketball is a big deal right now, but there was a story about Wagner basketball coach Donald Copeland.
He's under investigation for mistreating his players and for verbally abusing them.
This is from the New York Post.
I don't think this is funny.
I was already thinking of what I was gonna say.
I don't think this is funny, but how bad?
But a little bit, I'm like, this is kind of just the culture of being coached.
Also, maybe I'm just getting old.
Yeah, we should do that.
Maybe I'm just getting old, and I'll have something about like a sports take that we have.
But he called a player a quote, I won't say it, but.
Speaker 4A pu okay, oh well, okay.
Speaker 1He called one a bee, he called one a punk, and he called one a vagina.
And maybe you call the same player all four of those.
But those are four times.
Now, if a coach is yelling at you, I'm like, that's coaching.
That's just hard coaching.
Some coaches coach uncomfortably like that, and that style doesn't work from every coach or with every person.
But if I'm on a sports team and somebody's calling me a vagina, I'm probably like, I'm playing like a vagina.
I need to shape up.
Speaker 5Yeah.
Speaker 1Also, if I could take a few steps back, I would say I wish the vagina wasn't associated with being weak, because the vagina is not weak.
No, But the understanding is if somebody calls you a vagina and that means weak, but the vagina's not weak.
It actually I know that, I do know that it has it has baby.
It's a passage away.
Speaker 5Right, It does have a baby.
You're right, that's my point.
Speaker 1I fundamentally I have a problem with the vagina being associates being weak, But I can't remove that.
All I can say is it is associated with it, and so is the P word.
And so if a coach y'll that at me, I'd be like, I probably am, so okay, let's move on.
He also allegedly told another player, if you're thirsty, swallow your spit.
There's probably a time I need to hear that, like, I get it.
Speaker 4I feel like I have heard that.
Speaker 1I get it.
You got to give people water.
But I'm sure he's not yelling this anytime any player's thirsty.
It's probably wise being a vagina.
And then after finding a hidden gatorade bottle, this is great.
He told players, you're all going to run until the gatorad's out of his belly.
So, but what he's doing is he's punishing the whole team for one person cheating that happens.
Speaker 5You can't do this.
But I don't hear this and go.
Speaker 1That this is any different than probably ninety percent of cultures with hard nosed coaches.
Speaker 5Yeah, I can guarantee this goes on everywhere.
Speaker 1Everywhere, at every sport, and there may be other things I don't know about.
All I know is I read part of the story because I saw the headline.
I clicked into it because the New York Post had the whole article.
And Wagner basketball coach Donald Copeland is under investigation from mistreating players.
I say, we investigate him for being someone that gives hard love.
Speaker 4Right.
Speaker 5All of that happened to me yesterday at home.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, my life.
Speaker 6Yeah, on my eighth grade junior high team in West Sex's you know.
Speaker 5Friend's wife like is like tricks man, darty model.
Yes, ma'am.
Speaker 1I'm just going to lead with that because I don't know the full story.
If it's worse than that, then count me unto the club of people that's like, ah, maybe you shouldn't be coaching, but if it's just that I played sports, and also I could just be old at this point, we were talked to like that, and I think for me it helped at times.
Speaker 5Well, like where do we draw the line, because that's where I struggle to is because I'm with you, I'm like, that just sounds like normal coaching to me.
Speaker 1That get fired out question.
I think the line is drawn because it is a nuanced filled situation.
I think the line is drawn is do you trust the person that's saying this stuff to be doing it for the right reason?
Speaker 5Good point.
Speaker 1I don't think it's ever a line of exactly what's happening, because I think there are reasons that things happen.
Why coaches go hard, they flip tables, they give hugs, all for different reasons, same exact coach.
Do you trust that coach to communicate with you or the person that you love?
And if you do, then you have to trust them.
Speaker 5Mm hm.
Speaker 4So I think that's it, and there's a way to do it right, Like there for every time you call them the P word, you got to say two good things about it.
Speaker 1I think that's a book that a therapist strokes more than that's how to coach.
Speaker 5Okay, so.
Speaker 1If it's worse than that, I'll retract this whole thing.
What I read that those were the main complaints, and I read that as someone that played sports in the nineties, and I was like, yeah, maybe they were being a.
Speaker 5Yeah, I wonder if that's one kid like just yes, you know, that's another thing to like, is he is he getting his teammates together, or there just one kid going behind the scenes like this coach said this to.
Speaker 1Me, or it's multiple kids who didn't get to play yep, or who wanted to try.
We just don't know the whole situation.
Speaker 7Yeah.
Speaker 5I hated my head coaches when I didn't play.
I never did.
Speaker 1I thought I must suck and he just called me a pee words.
I gotta get better.
Speaker 4Same yeah, same, I never played anyway, So yeah, there's no difference to me.
Speaker 5I want to lead with that.
Speaker 4Okay.
Speaker 1Second thing I have also not football, and I know it's very football time, is the robot ops I'm in.
I could not be in anymore.
Now they're not going to be full robot opps.
You get two challenges, and the only people that can challenge with the manager of the batter in the picture.
So you get two challenges.
If you're correcting your challenge of a ball or strike, you get that challeng it remains, but once you're two down, you don't get them anymore.
The amount of money that is being bet on sports now, things have to be right.
It's why I like the digital first downs.
Speaker 5Dude, those are awesome.
It's fun when they put it up on the screen.
Speaker 7I know.
Speaker 5I'm like, yeah, this is cool, and it takes like nothing, Yeah, five seconds.
I get it.
Speaker 1We like humans.
But whenever it's more than just entertainment.
When people are betting money.
There's a whole industry built on the betting of money on these sports, billion dollar industries.
We can't have some fifty nine year old, slightly overweight guy with one cataract making a decision right that also might might have had a bad day in the morning.
Speaker 5There's a human element to it.
Speaker 1Yeah, and that's affecting his calls or her calls.
So I am totally for it.
Speaker 6Yeah, that's Eddie's kids school on the line.
Speaker 1You know.
Speaker 4Oh when you gamble, Yeah, I see what he's saying.
It is.
I mean, I get upset.
Whenever i'll close he strike.
And the only reason I'm mad because I'm gonna lose the bet.
Speaker 1Yeah, how's the chain gang going?
You still doing that?
Speaker 7Dude?
Speaker 4I don't know.
Speaker 5I did it one time.
Have you done it a second time?
Speaker 1Oh?
Speaker 4I haven't.
And they had a home game last weekend.
I didn't get a call.
I think the problem was my wife says that the guy knew that I was.
She said that the guy knew that I was going out of town and that's why he didn't call me.
But the fact that he didn't text me or call me and say, hey, are you able to do it this weekend worries me because we had a home game, he had a substitute.
Didn't even ask me if I was going to be in town even though I wasn't in town.
Speaker 5You haven't talked to him since.
Speaker 1No, Yeah, I think you're probably like third backup now you think so?
Probably?
Speaker 4Gosh, dude, I was so good at it though, And that's what I told my wife, Like I thought I was meant for that job, Like it's really.
Speaker 1Not a job I want to be meant for, Like that's a job that's an entry level job.
Like if you wanted to be like a referee.
Speaker 4No, no, no, I couldn't do that.
I couldn't handle the referee, did I have?
Like I see a butterfly and I'm like, oh, oh, shoot, missed the call.
With this, it's like it's me and another guy, Like we're pulling the chain.
Whenever they're slacking the chain, somebody's slacking, you know, And like I love that about it.
It's a team effort, and when I did it, the guy said I did great, So I loved it.
And you're in the action.
You get to hear all the players conversations, you get to see the game front road.
I'm I was meant for that.
Speaker 1It's high school still, you can see the front in front road.
No, you can stay on the fence.
Speaker 4No, dude, you can't hear like.
They won't even let you get on the track unless you have a pass.
Speaker 5You don't know anybody, you know I feel, I.
Speaker 4Mean, I could probably ask someone.
Speaker 1But you want to do I'm probably old.
Now you have sports take.
Speaker 5Yes, Yeah, I was watching all these games, especially this year, and I look at it.
We talked about the jewelry before, players wearing necklaces and all this stuff, and I'm like, God, I don't know how they play with that.
But lately I've been seeing grills everywhere.
Right, every single player has a grill.
Now, I'm like, do you wear a mouthpiece with that?
Isn't that uncomfortable?
How do you talk with that?
Quarterbacks are wearing grills?
So when did this become a thing where all these guys are wearing grills everyone but.
Speaker 1They're playing, They're wearing them in game.
Speaker 5Yeah, Like I saw a interview with a safety from the Browns and he had a grill in his mouth after the game on the field.
Speaker 1There's maybe someone brought it to him, though you think possibly, like I'm about to go on TV handing my grill because I had really expensive one and I was gonna go on TV, hammy my grill.
I've never seen a grill in game.
I'm not saying it's not because I did watch Jackson Dart wear the biggest fringing diamond necklace as a backup quarterback, although he did go in with it.
But I'm like, I wouldn't wear that as a wide receiver.
I get it because you may get thrown to nine times a game as a quarterback.
They're coming at you every play and they're grabbing at you every play.
So I haven't seen a grill in game.
Speaker 5But even like Kamara, doesn't he wear a grill.
Speaker 1Yea, he wears it in game, though.
Speaker 5I mean I seen that guy smile in the game and it's like in your face.
Speaker 4That might be TV.
Speaker 5Had like dazzled a mouthpiece diamonds.
Maybe he did, but I've seen some players lately.
Even my wife noticed last week, She's like, how do they play with that?
Like, I have no idea.
That sounds miserable.
But I don't know if I'm just being old and like it's a thing now or what.
Speaker 7Yeah.
Speaker 5I think it's a little bit of old, is it.
Speaker 1I think so?
Dang, just culture changes.
You guys have anything?
Speaker 4Yeah, ah that mine's basketball.
And maybe I'm just old.
But I don't like the way the coaches are now just wearing sweats when they coach a basketball game.
Like I like the suits.
I like for them to come on looking good, and half of them do.
But there's a handful of coaches that just like, you know, I don't care, man, I'm just wearing whatever I wore today to coach.
I don't like that.
Speaker 1The old Cowboys coach used to wear a fedora in suit and tie.
Yeah, Landry, is that what you look Tom?
Landry back?
Speaker 4I mean, it's it's to me, it's like when you look at the head coach, when you look on like the sideline or whatever, You're like, okay, assistant assistant.
Now that's the head coach.
I can tell why because he looks dapper.
Speaker 1I always think it's interesting to watch all the coaches because there are so many coaches doing signals.
I want to wear a hot pink hat, want to wear a hot green hat.
One to wears a black hat, and you're like, man, a weird wardrobe choice.
But it's just so they can be seen on the sideline.
Speaker 4Yeah, it's funny too.
Like whenever I go to a game, I like to try to find the head coach and it's so hard.
Like on TV, they're always on them, but like in person, the head coach I can't tell.
Like it's usually he's usually not yelling to the players, just hanging back.
Speaker 5Brandon, you want to do one, we just do it on you.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 6Man, So did you guys see what happened to the Cleveland Guardians guy in the face?
Speaker 7Yeah?
Speaker 6Okay.
Back when I played baseball and all this time I've been like, yeah, man, like we don't need face masks in baseball.
Speaker 1We need them, like who wants to play a man take?
Speaker 6I appreciate that to have reconstructive surgery on their face or even die just put a little you know, they wear fit.
They wear masks in football.
One softball they do.
Speaker 1That's true preference, right, college college softball, not slow pitch college softball, they wear masks, and everybody does, Okay, even the pitchers, most of them do.
Even the pitchers.
A lot of them wear a it looks like a catcher's mask without the helmet.
They put it over their face and throat because that rubber is it's not really a mound, but the rubber is so much closer and slow pitch, and they're throwing so hard that a line shot you have almost no time to react.
Speaker 6Yeah, i'd be the guy.
You know, the guys wearing the Guardian caps and baseball.
I'd have the Guardian cap on.
I'd have a mask, Yeah, i'd have I'd be like wrapped in bubble.
Speaker 4If I had to be topple over because you're so top.
Speaker 5Heavy, just roll the first base.
Speaker 6And I'm just not realizing.
This is definitely an old man take.
But I mean, geez, you could die from a fastball.
Speaker 4How is that guy?
Is he all right?
Speaker 1I don't know.
Speaker 6I know that I think he passed the test.
Speaker 5I looked up to it.
Speaker 1I was like, oh my god, he died.
Speaker 6But then he was giggling, So alright, no past the brain test.
I guess you do think he got through that.
I think we would have heard.
I knew he was in the hospital.
Speaker 5But I expected to recover six to eight weeks.
Ninety nine hours fastball right to the face.
I got hit in the face once.
Really, Yeah, it was a curveball.
Never curved right and face so.
Speaker 4It wasn't a curve ball.
Speaker 5I mean that.
Speaker 1The picture, it's brutal.
Yeah, Like a buddy sent me that and he was like, imagine that ninety nine right because he was bunning.
He hit the butun up right in the breaking the picture.
Speaker 4Oh, the picture felt terrible.
Speaker 1When you're bunning though you're leaning in, Yeah, you're leaning in.
Oh yeah, Okay, let's talk football for a second, something I don't normally do.
I'll lead with this Arkansas football.
Speaker 5That's a joke.
Speaker 4Okay, we do it all the time.
Speaker 5I was like, who's gonna tell.
Speaker 1Him they're gonna be Notre dame?
Speaker 4What's he doing here?
I believe it, Kevin, what's he doing here?
Speaker 5He's gonna set something up?
Just say, somebody getting money?
Maybe what's going on?
What do you mean to somebody getting like, are you gonna say Arkansas beats them?
Speaker 7Then?
Speaker 5Something something.
Speaker 4That feeling like what are you?
What are you thinking?
Speaker 1It's the most Arkansas thing ever, the most to lose, the most embarrassing game in years, and it's the game that's probably getting your head coach fired just to come back and win like this big game Notre Dame's coming to town, and and a bit offset that we're only a four and a half point underdog.
Speaker 4I saw that.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, it started at like seven or eight.
It was it five and a half yesterday.
Really it's at four and a half now it's shrinking.
I don't think Notre Dame is that good anyway.
Their defense is not good.
Our defense is terrible.
Speaker 4So get the over.
Speaker 5Oh yeah, I wonder what's the over?
Speaker 1The over is like sixty sixty.
Speaker 4One or more four and a half.
Speaker 1I think that was going to say it's sixty one.
Speaker 5Vegas nose.
Speaker 1I'd probably bet the over, but not a for sure.
Speaker 4Two bad defenses, man, And I mean, I think y'all's offense is pretty good.
Speaker 1Our offense is amazing.
We have a great offensive coordinator.
We have a really good quarterback.
We have pretty good receivers.
Our offensive line is legit.
We have a strong offense.
Except for the fumbling we've done to lose two games.
Yeah, we've literally fumbled two games away.
No no, no, literally, yeah.
All we had to do in the Memphis game was taken knee.
Just don't run the ball.
If we take a knee in the kick a field goal, we win the game regardless.
And I saw a question, and this is when I'll ask you, guys, have you ever rooted for your favorite team to lose for something bigger than that one game?
And I thought about this and I never have, Like I can't even if going into it, I have the understanding macro instead of micro, it probably would be better for the long term future of the program.
If this victory did not happen.
I can't do it.
I've wanted to do it, but I can't watch my own team and root against them.
I'm rooting for us as hard as I possibly can't, even though I think we need a coaching change.
Speaker 5Is it because it's it's against Notre Dame at all?
Speaker 1Or no period period?
Like I wish I could separate a little more and go long term versus short term, but I can't.
If you ever rooted against your absolute favorite team because you think it's better for that team if they lose, yep, last year, Patriots because you want a new coach.
Speaker 5That the number one pick.
Speaker 4Yeah, the draft.
Speaker 5Oh, that's such a good one college.
Speaker 1We don't have that at that And then we won, that's right, and.
Speaker 5We lost a number one pick.
Yeah, And I was like, what the heck?
The first time I've ever rooted against my team that makes they win with a backup quarterback and we lose a number one draft pick.
Speaker 1I think I could do that because you're rooting for the number one pick.
Speaker 5I'm never in that mix.
Speaker 1Of a pick.
Speaker 5We're just that's true, But it was to get the eighty.
Speaker 4Fourth portal pick.
Regardless of same of the Cowboys, We've never been that bad.
We've always been round the middle.
Speaker 5That's the worst kind of bad, to be sure.
It's kind of like the Steelers.
Yeah, you guys are always the middle of the pack.
Yes, less than the Steelers.
Speaker 1Whoa, they're not as good as the Steelers because Steelers have been a losing record.
Speaker 4Yeah, it's true.
Speaker 1The Cowboys pats and losing records, Yes, we have.
Uh, have you ever rooted against the Cowboys in a single game, Eddie?
Speaker 4I don't think so, man, And like, I struggle a lot with the fantasy situation, you know sometimes and I'm just like, I really need the fantasy points here.
But I've never rooted against the Cowboys.
Nope, never, for no reason.
Speaker 1I think also you'd root against the Cowboys though up a number one pick was at play.
Speaker 4Yes, but we've never been in that situation as while I've been a fan.
Speaker 1Yeah that's a great point though, because we were like fake fan.
But that's a good fan.
Speaker 5Yeah, thanks guys.
Speaker 1So I want Arkansas to win.
I also hope we have a new head coach next year.
Yeah that's tough, but I and I think if Arkansas win, it probably slows that process down.
But I came the game, I just I can't.
I think Arkansas has a great I would bet Arkansas and take the four and a half points.
I don't feel great about it because I'm mostly attached to it.
I have a bias, like that's not my recommended bet of the week, not even if that's a real segment.
But yeah, I take Arkansas plus the four and a half because we're going to score some points, and I'd probably go out with the over as well.
Speaker 5Yeah, they do to give up points.
Speaker 1Brandon, what's your favorite team?
Speaker 6My favorite team of all time?
Of anything, of anything.
I mean, I grew up a Cowboys fan.
Are you still it's so tough?
Speaker 4I am, but don sounds like you are.
Speaker 5Yeah.
Speaker 6So it is the hardest.
It's the hardest team to be a fan of.
Speaker 1Oh, have you tried Arkansas?
I'd like to I'd like to show I want to show you the menu of other teams.
There's there are Browns fans Arkansas, a little Jacksonville Jaguar for dessert.
Speaker 6That's a good point.
Well, I will say in the twenty nineteen season, I was like, dude, I don't want them to win because I want Garrett gone.
And then we got McCarthy and it was just like okay, I mean, everybody says it as long as Jerry Jones is at the Helm.
It's it's just they're going to get in their own way every season.
Speaker 1You know what's interesting about that is I agree because we've seen it over and over again.
It's hard to argue with proven results in that the last twenty years they haven't won.
In the last twenty years, there's been some some circus time antics.
That being said, I have talked to some people that are extremely elevated in the NFL and They're like, it is such a well run operation.
Speaker 5I've heard that too.
Speaker 1They make a lot of money, they run it, they run it wonderfully.
It's just personnel.
Speaker 5But even all the players you've talked to, well, go there.
They all they all love Jerry, love playing for him.
So that's a weird part to want to be a Cowboy.
Speaker 4But what's the goal?
Speaker 6I mean, everybody on every other team is like, we want to win a super Bowl.
We want to win a super Bowl.
And it's like, well, if you want to win a super Bowl, you should have kept Parsons.
You know what I'm saying For this season in particular, Yeah, yeah, games.
Speaker 1That game is going to be interesting this way is not gonna be fun to watch.
That's the kind of game you win, though, I know, hopefully do what I'm predicting.
The Cowboys and Arkansas win.
Hey, it's called a two game w TF parlay Cowboys and.
Speaker 6Disappointment Bowl.
Speaker 1Will you put those in money line and see what the odds come back at the w TF parlay picture?
Speaker 5Why not?
Who knows?
Speaker 1Dallas Cowboy winner, Arkansas winner.
Speaker 5I'll bet it.
Speaker 4Throw the Bengals in there too.
Speaker 5No, I can't because that's not like our love.
Speaker 4I know.
Speaker 5That's like Eddie just wants them to win.
Speaker 4That's so bad.
Dudes.
Yeah, that that is stressing me out.
Speaker 1Me too, but probably not as much as you because that wasn't like the team.
You know, we've talked about it.
I wanted the Packers, you one of the Bengals.
You and Kevin are definitely invested.
So it was like, let's go to the Bengals.
I don't think it's a terrible pick, but okay.
But I also wasn't like, no to the Bengals.
I really wasn't.
I just said, I think it's a Packers and you're like, I think it's a Bengals.
I'm like, cool, you're investing in this too, We'll go with your pick.
So I wasn't fighting the Bengals.
Speaker 4I know.
Speaker 5Plus nine hundred.
Speaker 4Oh that dude, that's amazing.
Speaker 1That's significant.
I'm gonna have to bet that the WTF bet of the week.
Yes, I don't think Draft Kings will put it up because they want a three gamer from us.
Yeah, I have a three gamer coming up.
We did hit ours last week, but I think for our show.
By the way, don't bet it.
Don't bet what the WTF party the way.
Speaker 5You're gonna lose twice?
Do you have two ghost legs and then you just break even?
Aren't a lot of Arkansas fans also Cowboys fans?
Speaker 7Though?
Speaker 5Yes, so that's good.
Speaker 1Mostly Arkansas fans are Cowboys fans.
Regional double one Jerry Jones two Oh yeah, though Jerry.
Not only Jerry who was on the Arkansas A National championship team for ninety six to four.
Jimmy Johnson Barry Switzer, the two Cowboys coaches that won Super Bowls were also Arkansas guys.
Speaker 5A lot of ties, A lot of ties.
Speaker 1The Football Center is the Jones Center, the Jones Complex.
Speaker 7Oh is it?
Of course?
Speaker 4Donate some money, I's say a lot of money.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, back to it then, Okay, so we're gonna I'm gonna bet the WTF we have.
I'm not rooted against my team.
I want Arkansas to win, and I think they're probably going to win or play really well.
Speaker 6I really do think that too.
Speaker 1I got a message from Brandon Walker at Barstool, who's college football savant.
I'm gonna read it to you, and this was unsolicited because he just messaged me last night kind of late.
Speaker 7Oh.
Speaker 1I can't.
I'm not going to get to it because I got so many pregnancy messages.
Speaker 4Oh, you won't be able to find it.
Speaker 5Okay, I got it.
Speaker 6Wait, what what happened?
Speaker 4Who's?
Speaker 7Oh?
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah you haven't heard.
Speaker 6No, who's is somebody?
Speaker 1Eddie just adopted two kids?
Speaker 4Yeah?
Speaker 6Man, not again?
Speaker 7No?
Speaker 5No's he's up four now it's delayed news.
Speaker 6Wow, congrats man.
Speaker 1Brandon said, I think you'll be Notre Dame Saturday.
You have a great quarterback.
They have a bad defense.
You're fighting for Pittman's job and he's like he'll be fired by November.
But this is a sneaky, wannable game.
Speaker 4Interesting.
Speaker 1I think so too.
Yeah, and the line keeps moving that direction.
Speaker 5Yeah.
Speaker 1If Notre Dame loses, let's remove Arkansas from this.
If Notre Dame loses, what a disaster it is for them.
Speaker 5They're out.
That's three losses.
Speaker 4They've got to be done.
Speaker 1They're out.
They can't even climb back in.
And they're the one team that can climb back in because they're independent, because they're not in a tier system in a conference.
So all right, we'll move on from that.
I feel bad for Gundy at Oklahoma State.
I think it was time because he did not modify how he coaches.
I'm not talking about on the field.
I'm talking about with personnel, the portal in il until it was too late, the gatorade, the gatorade, I.
Speaker 5Don't know you're talking about.
Speaker 1Do you mean, oh, oh, this is this is the coach that definitely called coach?
He probably called it few people Vagina one years of coaching, Yes, Manali Gordon got in trouble for I think it do UI And he was like, oh, yeah, who isn't driven drunk?
I drunk all the time that.
Speaker 5It was something like that.
It was last year.
Yeah.
Speaker 4Uh.
Speaker 1I feel bad for Gundy because I think it's twenty one years between being a player, an assistant coach and head coach because he was a quarterback at Oklahoma State, like he gave his whole life to that school.
I do think it was time for them to move on.
And what I read was they offered him the ability to finish out the season and then announce his retirement, and he was like, f that you would.
He's like, I'm not doing that.
Speaker 5That seems like his style.
Speaker 1So yeah, rest in peace, coach Gundy.
I think he'll coach again somewhere else.
But it's weird to see him anywhere else because I only know him as Oklahoma State's guy.
I only know him as I'm a man, I'm forty.
I only know him as the mullet.
I only know him as the guy that has quarterbacked assistant.
Was he was he the coordinator, was off at the corner, or he was the cordiner.
It's a specialty offensive defense.
I don't know.
And then head coach.
So you ever get fired fire from a.
Speaker 4Job, I've never been fired fired.
I almost got fired, like where the point to the point where somebody had to cover for me to keep my job.
I was kind of like the last it was working news, and it was the last straw, Like it's like three strikes are out basically, and this is like anything.
I had wrecked a vehicle.
I had maybe been late like five times, and then I broke a camera and it was all on me.
But the reporter said like, no, I did it, and I was like that is amazing.
So I kept my job.
Speaker 5Those cameras pretty expensive.
Speaker 4Oh yeah, dude, forty thousand dollars cameras.
Speaker 1How'd you break it?
Speaker 4So I was doing a live shot and you have to connect it to a wire to like a cable to the truck, and I had reeled in the cable in not knowing it was still connected to the camera, and.
Speaker 5It pulled the camera.
Speaker 4Oh wait, dude, shattered, shattered the.
Speaker 5Whole camera slow fall.
Speaker 4Yeah, and then so you see it.
I felt the tugue.
I'm like, why is that stuck on something?
It was stuck on the camera.
Speaker 1Boh.
Speaker 4And then I get back to the station and the news director is like, all right, we got to talk.
And then the reporter said no, no, no, we got to talk.
I did it.
I was helping him with the deal and like it broke.
Who's just one more reporters?
Speaker 1Man, you don't want to say nope, man, why that's like a positive.
Speaker 4It was awesome.
It was awesome, but like, yeah, definitely should not have done that, and they did and I kept my job because of it.
But I've never I've been laid off before, but never gotten fired fired like that.
Speaker 1You rowe that reporter, Yeah, yeah, didn't you want to shout him out?
Speaker 5I know, all right, man, Kevin, Yeah, I've never been fired.
I've gotten for a load.
That's the closest thing to it.
During COVID ninety days.
But that's it.
Speaker 1They were fired from this job.
Speaker 5No before I moved here California for Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1Are you here for COVID?
I thought you were.
Speaker 7No.
Speaker 5I got here in twenty one.
Speaker 1Know what your COVID was.
I remember Kevin when he was interviewing, because he just interviewed to basically edit the countdown.
Speaker 5Not even the count just like show stuff radio, show stuff.
Yeah, I don't remember now.
Speaker 1And this guy shows up all these tattoos, and I'm like, he sits office.
I'm like, I don't know whatever.
We need a warm body.
Yeah yeah, it's just like a low level entry job.
Speaker 4I remember checking out his Instagram and it was a picture of him, like a picture in the in the mirror with like a suit on, and be like, I got this today.
Speaker 5You're right, we all get way.
Let's do you when we get older?
For sure?
Oh yeah.
I was still like, I don't know twenty seven that picture.
Oh yeah, I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1Look good, Huh you still had a little tattoo California, douchebag in you?
Speaker 5Yeah yeah, yeah, it's not anymore right, guys.
Speaker 4No, man, you're all Boston at all Tennessee guy, No, you really don't good.
Speaker 1Thanks a lot of reasons, just general maturation has yeah too, But I did not think you would be as dependable as you are.
You didn't really like a dependable person.
Speaker 4The tattoos, wow, all of it.
Speaker 1Yeah, the tatto to the haircut, the you know it was from California.
You're like, okay, this guy, we can use a warm body until he quits or gets fired.
Speaker 5I was gonna say, how long do you think?
I like, in your mind?
Did you do you remember if you were like, oh, he'll last six months or whatever.
Speaker 1I kind of didn't care because it wasn't a position that I felt like I needed to worry about that you came in for.
It was very much an entry level position.
It was, Yeah, and he moved up so quick because he showed up on time, got everything done.
It was like, what else do you need?
And so now Kevin's like very much integral to everything that I do in so many ways.
So he's like one of the guys for sure who I depend on.
By the time, I was like, yeah, end today, gone tomorrow.
Speaker 4Did he come recommended or like, did you No?
Speaker 5I did.
I didn't even he didn't.
Speaker 1I cared so little about that position that he just showed up and somebody was interviewing over for something.
I was like, I don't care, but I'm happy to say hi to whoever it is.
You know me, It's like I have any time when I'm up here.
Everything is back to back to back to back to back.
And so I was in my office, which I'm not much, and they're like, hey, this is Kevin.
He's yeah, yeah, I come in.
Hey man, where are you from?
I did sports there?
Speaker 7A right?
Speaker 5Good luck to you.
Never thought I see him again?
Yeah, that was it.
It really was with Rod too, And you're like, all right, what else?
I'm like, I don't know, Scuba, where are you at?
Speaker 4Come kidding me?
Speaker 7Here?
Speaker 1He is here.
Speaker 5We are sure years later, four and a half years later.
Speaker 1Just show you those man.
If you just get in, yeah, that's it.
Get in and people are so I'll say, they're just people in general that you hire are not dependable.
So if you get in and show you're dependable and you have consistent effort, the world is a freaking oyster.
Speaker 5Just in life.
Speaker 1Like you could do anything you want to do by showing up expressing your goals and just doing it because people are not dependable.
And here he is, Kevin now a millionaire.
Speaker 4Look at him, keV.
Speaker 1He is a likable person, like, yes, but you don't like him by looking at him now when you first met him, I wanted to not like all covered in tats with California haircut.
Speaker 5Yeah yeah, yeah, I got that vibe from a few people here for sure.
Yeah.
Here it was kind of a douchebag vibe.
Speaker 1Yeah, not anything you were doing extra right, But it's just like here, people didn't act you other like a chain on your tight t shirts, gel in your hair.
Speaker 5I didn't, No, I don't have enough.
Speaker 7I didn't.
Speaker 5Yeah I had some hair, I guess forst couple of years.
Huh, for sure.
Speaker 4Yeah, and you were really ripped.
Speaker 5Not that you aren't anymore, just rip let's be honest you Yeah.
Now it's I don't have the time to just go work out whenever I want all that You.
Speaker 1Can be a douchebag and not be That also happens here too.
You can actually break out of that shell.
Speaker 5Yes you can.
Speaker 1Why'd you move here?
Speaker 5I just needed to get out of California.
I wanted to leave there.
I wanted to be able to.
Speaker 1Look like you run from the law.
Dude.
It's like, I don't want to ask any more questions because you.
Speaker 5Got you know, the judge was like, you gotta get out of here.
So it's like, all right, I'm out.
No, I don't know.
I wanted to buy a house, be able to buy a house at an affordable rate, which I've done since then, which is great.
I wanted to meet a wife, which I've done has been great, started family, all that good stuff, and just of like a more fulfilled life, and honestly, I have more than I could have ever imagined.
Speaker 4You couldn't have done that in California.
Speaker 5I understand the price of the house, but I just feel like I was stuck there mentally, and I was just in a rotation of just like the same old thing with the same old people, and I wasn't going to get to where I wanted to get.
And I gave myself a year in Nashville three hundred and six five days.
If I didn't like it, I was going to maybe move back and move somewhere else.
Here we are four andy a half years later.
Speaker 1It was that tough rotation of perfect weather, beach and women everywhere hard.
Speaker 5It was so hard for him.
But I had to get away from that guy too much.
Thirty years of that was just too much.
Speaker 4At any point, did you want to go to Boston?
Speaker 5Yeah, I didn't think.
I did think about that, but the Winters man, it's too brutal.
Speaker 1Why'd you come that all places?
Speaker 5I had like a handful of friends here.
I had a good friend that I moved in with here, so that made it easy too.
And it just seemed like I visited one time and I was like, yeah, I'll give Nashville shot.
Speaker 1Yeah, and here we are nothing tiny down back there no ready to get out of the cycle of each women and good weather.
Speaker 6Oh yeah, the worst.
Uh.

Speaker 1We're gonna talk now to Texas Tech head football coach Joey McGuire.
The Red Raiders are ranked twelfth in the new poll after beating Utah thirty four ten on the road last week.
Everybody's talking about Texas Tech.
They're dominating.
They do the portal right because they have money.
I wish we had the money that they had.
Speaker 4Oil for us for Oh, that'd be great.
Speaker 1We just buy players, come here and watch them do football one on one right in the middle.
Yes, they're on a bye week, but they play Houston next week.
They have a pretty favorable schedule the rest of the year, which is good.
They still got a couple of tough games in there, but the schedule gods have been nice to them for the rest of the year.
But they pounded Utah.
The game was close at first, they pounded Utah.
So it's not like you're gonna second guess anything, even with a weaker ish schedule.
The fact that they whooped uah like that and if you talk, he's winning.
I think that's a big enough win for people to know they're legit.
Big thanks to coach for coming on here.
He is Coach Joey McGuire.
Let us welcome one of my favorite coaches.
He's now the hunter.
The hunted has turned into the hunter.
Coach McGuire's.
Speaker 7And what's up, brother, So good to see you and be on the show.
I appreciate it.
Speaker 5And it's good to see you too.
Speaker 1As watching that game last week, Uh were you a little tight when the backup quarterback had to go in?
Speaker 4Coach?
Speaker 7I have total faith and we'll hand it.
But uh that that was a crazy game.
You know, you go through different games and I'm always pretty exhausted, but I was exhausted my next shoulders and everywhere else you could carry Titch and I always carrying a lot of attention through that game.
Speaker 1Man, what a performance like second half, And again I was watching a lot of it because that was just a big national game.
Speaker 4Anyway.
Speaker 1What's really cool is that a lot of the big national games, like you guys are are that conversation now?
Speaker 5So I was interested.
I want to see what Utah had.
Speaker 1I want to see what Texas Tech had against you know, two good teams.
Second half, you guys kind of had it.
Like where what was it about the second half?
Was it you guys schemed differently at halftime?
Was it you guys are in better shape?
What do you think?
Speaker 7I think it was a mixture.
You know.
We we had two opportunities in the first half to kind of make some big plays, one for a touchdown to kind of increase our lead, and you know, we threw a couple of interceptions, and then we had less felities in the second half.
I mean, we ended up with fourteenth in these eight procedure penalties.
That place was a really loud environment, and we kind of got out of our own way more in the second half.
There were there were times as we could have opened it up first half, we just didn't do it, you know, and that's a learning experience, which is gonna be good and gonna help us down the line.
Speaker 1Kind Of a weird question, but that Utah Football Stadium is pretty awesome, right man.
Speaker 7It is like both Utah and VYU I mean, because the settings behind the stadiums, You've got the mountains, so it's beautiful that Utah Stadium.
They're really built.
It's built where like the crowd is on top of youth.
And then that's the first time I've been there.
I heard a lot of great things about it.
But their students section is is pretty day mild.
Speaker 1So what's different about this year?
Like, how does it feel different?
Because you guys, you have the roster you're executing, do you feel a bit more like people have you dialed in now?
Speaker 5With the bulls eye on your back.
Speaker 7There's a lot of things that we use that we know are being said about us, you know, and so I try to use it, not oprah use it, but use it to where we can push some buttons.
But you know, one thing we could talk about and my messaging has been the same for four years, don't We don't debating a lot from who we are.
And one of the messages is if we're the best version of ourselves, then we have a chance every single week.
And that that's the thing with this team.
They really get that.
They really you know, like we're going into one game against Oregon State and I was kind of messing with one of my corners, Brice Pollock, and Oregon State's got a really good receiver, and I said, hey, man, are you ready for this matchup?
He looked at that and he goes, Coach, I have to cover Caleb Douglas and Reggie Virgil every day.
You honestly think that guy's better than those two And it kind of hit me in the face.
Life.
Man, he's right.
I mean, these guys understand how good they are and how they play off of each other.
So that's making a big difference.
Speaker 1Where on the priority list is it for you to make sure you guys have maybe an advantage or are just ready to take a shot at the NFL.
Speaker 7It's high, you know, we talk about it all the time.
You know, number one, you're coming here to get a great education, and one B, you're preparing yourself could be a pro.
Now we talk about being a pro like being a great dad, being a great husband, you know, I mean, you're a pro at what you do.
But these guys that we have on this team, there's a lot of them that have the ability and athletic and mindset to be in the NFL.
So we want to make sure we're preparing them for that.
You walk into our team meetings, everybody's going to have a notebook, everybody's taking notes, everybody's locked in, and teach them how to watch film, watch an extra film.
One of my big deals that I talk about, excuse me, every single day, it's taking care of your body.
Because you and I both know there's a lot of guys in the NFL that are still in the NFL because they can stay healthy.
And there's a lot of guys that have been cut over the history of the NFL because they can't stay healthy.
And they might be better than one guy, but they just can't stay helpy.
So we we spend a lot of time with that.
Speaker 5What do you guys do during an off week?
Speaker 1You get a bye week this week, do you go back to the basics or you give them a little time off or what?
Speaker 7Yeah, So we practiced the young guys on Monday, just at a you know, scrimmage if anybody just did not play in the game practice, and then Tuesday and Wisday were the exact same from the standpoint through everybody practice, you knowing that was the basics, that was the individual and some stemma on seven stuff and just trying to, you know, get back to the things, like any red flags over the first four weeks, who want to address?
Then I give the On Tuesday, Wisday, the old guys the bets go run with the street staff and the young guys have like a twenty play scrimmage and then the day they had a heavy lift and then they're off.
So they've got they still got class today and everything like that.
But they'll be able to get out here for a couple of days or they'll you know, hang in town.
I got a big group going hunting if Barry Morton or quarterback about two or hours away, and then we're back at it on Sunday.
But we needed you know, I mean, I know this is an early buye, but whenever you're in college football, you spent a month hitting each other in camp and then you just spent full weeks playing games.
It was good to have a buy back.
Speaker 1In high school and we had a bye week, we'd wear jerseys and go to the next team we were playing, like sitting the bleachers.
You guys don't want to go sit in the Houston bleachers, but you get ready for that game.
Speaker 7Man.
We might but then I would get in trouble like Michigan did a couple of years ago for Advance, And so I don't want to do it unless it's gonna give me a national championship, and then you know who knows what you do for that?
Speaker 1Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 5Do you get any time off during a bye week?
Speaker 1That's different?
Speaker 7Will you take a little time yourself Saturday?
You know, like I'm going to recruit.
Most of my coaches left last night to recruit today and tomorrow.
I'll I'll go recruit tomorrow and then I'll get home pretty late Friday night and literally I will sit on my back porch and in the morning dreat coffee and probably in the afternoon smoke a cigar and watch football all day long.
Speaker 1Are you all football all the time, even when it's not your football?
Speaker 7Yeah?
I love it.
I meat up with it, you know, especially college football.
I love watching It's just the pageantry and and you know, it's it's almost like a movie at different stadiums, and you know, it's I'm heat up with it.
You know.
I'll watch a little bit of PROS pro wise, I'm trying to watch our guys anybody's playing, you know, I'll tune in and watch a couple of you know, we'll have it in the background while I'm watching Feeling.
But yeah, I don't have a lot of hobbies.
You know, it's hanging out with my dog and my wife and watch football.
Speaker 1Is it different every year what the players do as leaders?
You have some years where you just trust your captains to actually have meetings with the team, and some maybe your captains aren't as established.
Is it based on you know, who the captains are every year?
Speaker 7One hundred percent?
You know, we, uh, we've got a really strong group.
Three of my captains are back.
We had five captains last year.
Three of them returned Baron Morton, Jacob Rodriguez, and Broch Fromirez.
But one thing that we did there were some really strong alpha males that came in and they had big voices.
They had been captains at their previous spools, and so we wanted to make sure they had a voice.
And so like a guy like Scout Skylar, Gil Howard has been huge for us.
And so this is a player led team.
You know, I can send out one text to my leadership group.
Whatever that text says, it's gonna get taken care out.
Speaker 1Do you have now that that the portal has been functioning for a few years now.
Uh, at a high level, do you have like a like a time when when new guys to feel part of the team.
Is it three or four weeks in?
Is it like a couple weeks into the season.
Is there like a time when you expect everybody to kind of have jilled?
Speaker 7Yeah?
You know, we did the majority, almost all of it in January last year on purpose.
We wanted to be able to spend the whole off season bring these guys together.
But this is a really cool story.
So I've got a receiver, Hayden Readington.
He's a country music artist.
He's got a couple of albums out and he's really good.
I mean, as soon as the season's over in January, he's gonna move to Nashville.
He's very talented.
And he was opening up for Random World Key in Love With and a bunch of my guys went out there.
And I've known Haby since he was four, So I went out there to listen to my wife and I'll good and I see the guys and they've been around each other for about three and a half weeks.
And one of his songs he started playing Talk Funny and they're singing along with it.
And these are new guys, these are transfers, and I'm like, man, and that says a lot about them that they already have gotten so close that they're singing one of his songs.
And really, at that point that night, I went home and I said, Hey, Debbie, we got something special here.
This is not a normal ill that guys already or lis closed.
Speaker 1Whenever you start the season, what do you set the goals as?
Is it to win the conference?
Is it to CFP?
Like, what do you say to the guys?
Speaker 7Yeah, you know, I'm gonna start with coach speak and say we want to go one to know you know which we do?
We right now, I'm coming to our building says one and oh, and it has us because it's a Bibley.
Next week it's gonna go one and oh and it's gonna have Houston logo and crossed out.
But we want to win the Big twelve.
You know, a long time ago, a coach told me, you know, you've you've got to put days in front of these guys that they got to understand it's not just to you know, at the time in Icebroy it wasn't just to get in the playoff.
It was to win the district championship, you know, And so we talk about what we need to do to win the Big twelve, you know, to get to Arlington.
And then once you get into that game, take your business.
You're gonna be in playoffs and you you know, refocuses are working on that, but it's it's to win the Big twelve.
Speaker 1Coach.
I got a lot of helmets up here from coaches to just send them up.
There ain't a Texas Tech helmet up here.
Ain't you known?
Speaker 5You're my guy.
Speaker 1I'd love to have one, you know, And coach Loipol sent one.

Speaker 1All right, looking at games this weekend, it's kind of a bad NFL slate if there's such thing, so we can quickly go through them.
At Seahawks and Cardinals, I'm not that interested in that game.
It's I don't know, it's fine.
It's so West Coast by this Thursday night.
That's Thursday night, Sunday Vikings at Steelers.
The Vikings are to a half point favorite.
Speaker 5Only cool thing is that's in Dublin, Oh, first game in Doublin.
Speaker 1It's eight o'clock game eight am.
I can't believe the Vikings are the favorite.
I know, I saw a JJ McCarthy's still out another because see I think he's going to be with the team but not playing, but he's going to rehab over.
I would just stay home.
Yeah, and you got a new kid.
Speaker 4Maybe he's never been to Ireland.
Speaker 1Maybe I think you can afford it though.
Probably Panthers at Patriots.
Speaker 5You, Bobby, let's go big, no.
Speaker 1I you know, I'm a big, keep pounding guy, but we have our money on our team.
Commanders at Falcons, Like, I kind of don't care.
Commanders are point a half favorite, but I kind of don't care about that game.
Saints at Bills again terrible game.
Bills are fifty and a half point favorite.
Browns at Lions.
I mean, the interesting thing of this is that are the Browns maybe not as terrible as we thought, but also not a great game.
Lions a nine and a half point favorite.
Chargers at Giants.
The only thing interesting about this game is Jackson Dartist starting.
Yeah, because the Chargers are really good, but not a terribly interesting game.
Here's one of the two games.
Eagles at Bucks, two undefeated teams that could be good.
The Eagles probably win this game because I think the Eagles are the better team and how many times can you beg Baker Mayfield to save the game for you?
You might do it again, though, But that's in that Okay, this is a good game tier.
I'd like to see the Bucks win.
Eagles three and a half point favorite.
Titans at Texans, What the heck is that winless?
B oh terrible enough?
Jaguars are forty nine ers, Niners haven't lost, but who cares?
Speaker 5Like Jones quarterback?
Speaker 1Have the Jaguars lost?
Speaker 5Bengals won?
Speaker 7Right?
Speaker 5Yeah?
Speaker 1Bears at Raiders who cares?
Colts at Rams is one of those interesting games because the Colts three and zero, who would have thought?
Are probably pretty good?
The Rams because they lost that game to the Eagles does not mean they're a bad team.
I think the Rams are really good.
Speaker 5They're good.
Speaker 6Yeah, they're good.
Speaker 1So that's in that tier of Hey, how about that Packers at Cowboys.
If it weren't for the general knowledge of Eddie Love and the Cowboys Randon too.
If we didn't just know that, we probably wouldn't care that much.
And also our WTF game of the week, right, Marquee Monday Night Jets of Dolphins terrible awful and Bengals and Browns.
Speaker 4Did you forget Ravens.
Speaker 5Chiefs, Broncos, Bengals and Broncos.
Speaker 1Oh, Bengals and Broncos.
Speaker 4Thank you who?
Ravens Chiefs?
Speaker 1All right, it's not on my list.
That is a game.
Speaker 4Yeah, Ravens at at Chiefs.
Speaker 1They don't have on my list, So I guess I'm not playing it.
Speaker 5It's just dan.
If it didn't print, there we go.
They don't play.
Speaker 1Uh, yeah, that is a that's a good game because they're both one and two.
I don't have it on my sheet, but they're both one and two.
One of those teams are gonna be one and three, and let's be honest, it's probably gonna be the Chiefs.
Speaker 4Oh, I hope not.
Speaker 1It probably is.
Speaker 3Dude.
Speaker 4I felt so bad for Derrick Henry, like he looked like he just wanted to Yeah, I want to get away.
It's like you wanted to go anywhere.
Speaker 1But there after the fumble.
Speaker 4Yes, two of them, two games, it's.
Speaker 1Like he plays for Roarkansas.
Speaker 4Man.
Yeah.
Speaker 1So not the best slate of NFL games.
No, there's a couple we got our parlay.
Speaker 4We're good.
Speaker 1Let's see anything else.
What about tipping at casino tables?
Speaker 4Oh yeah, I just want to ask you guys, like, what's what's the point in tipping the dealer at a casino table?
Because I don't I don't do it, but I saw people do it, so I kind of felt whenever I had like a win where I won like more than fifty dollars, I guess I throw them like a couple of bucks.
Like, what's the point though.
Speaker 5What do you think the point is?
And I can tell you what I think the point is.
Speaker 4Maybe just to help the vibe, Like you give them money, they're happier because you're not changing your luck by giving them a couple of dollars.
Speaker 1I think you said something though, you don't change luck anyway, like you never changed luck.
Speaker 4No, right, it is what it is, and it's not I think.
I think they get paid whatever they're gonna get paid.
They're not dependent on your on your.
Speaker 5Tip, right, it's not like a serve, but they do get it sure.
Speaker 4Yeah.
And then it's another question too, like if you're at a craps table there's four, four or five dealers, do they divvy it up?
Or just pull the person in front and get it.
Speaker 1They pull it, Yeah, like pull like put it in a pool.
They share it, Yeah, not like pull port.
My accent can get the way there.
Speaking to the end of that, Yeah, So you do it.
One for luck, just to kind of help your life, Like I'm winning, I want to be generous.
Two, it's just a human thing, right, you're winning and you're like, I'm getting all this, So why would I not break a little something off for somebody else who's a part of me getting all this?
But very much a vibe thing too.
Okay, so those three things, but there's really no real reason to tip somebody that isn't controlling your fate in any way.
Now, there are times where if you're at a crash table or you're at a card table, the dealer can actually help you sure, meaning hey, you forgot your bet or I wouldn't hit that.
You know, they're given the liberty at times to not allow you to sink the ship.
That makes sense, but that's really not the reason you do it.
And you do it just because you're a good person.
You also do it because you feel like if you do it helps your luck, which it doesn't.
But luck is a gonna be affected anyway.
Speaker 4Yeah, so it's just like you know, haircut, I get restaurant, get the table, and never really understood, but that makes sense.
It's all luck and by that makes sense, And they do some of them do do a little extra work.
Like even the roulette table, I'll throw it over and like, will you put that on number three for me?
Speaker 5Just because you can't reach it.
Speaker 4It's one of the table.
Speaker 1Do you tip your and they probably do that anyway, right, even if you didn't know.
Do you tip your the drink server every every time?
Speaker 5Every time?
That's a free drink, but it's not free of you tip every time.
Speaker 4Actually, if it's a dollar, a dollar vodka soda free cheap.
Speaker 5They water those things more, way more soda than vodka.
Speaker 1Yeah, those are very water down.
If you pay for one at the bar, they're not water down, not that I know, other than just being with people while they're getting them.
Yeah, but yeah, I always so I get a beer, I tip in a bottle bottle.
Speaker 4You can't water that down, or can.
We're at a bar one time and a friend of mine was like, this is watered down big time, Like this doesn't even taste like beer really like wow.
Speaker 1Yeah, I tip at least a buck if I'm getting a coke or a I get Charlie Temple's with the casino.
Speaker 4Yeah, that looks like a vocasta.
Speaker 1Yeah, I got a little cherry in it too.
I need to cherry at the table.
Speaker 5What if you don't have any dollar chips?
Break just throw a five.
Speaker 6You can break it.
Speaker 1I've thrown a five if I'm really up, Yeah, I'll throw a five.
Usually it's a couple bucks.
But you always got to tip that because they won't come back to you, right, or they will, but it'll be very slow.
It'd be much slower.
Speaker 5Yeah, and they'll let you know they're mad.
They will.
Yeah.
Speaker 4Here's another question for you guys.
So, like if you order a drink and you're you're going, you're playing, and then they go and take your order and then you lose all your money and you're like, well, I'm done.
Speaker 5That's the work?
Speaker 4Can you that it's in this situation?
Is it cool to just sit there for like a couple of minutes longer until your drink gets there?
Speaker 1Yes, Okay, you can't take up a spot at the table like hold spot at the table.
You can stand there and they bring the drink back because they know who you are and the spot to bring it to.
Yes, you can get your drink, but you can't if you're at a crash table.
You know you have your slot, you can't sit there and hold it because somebody else needs that spot to gamble.
Speaker 4Right.
Speaker 7Oh.
Speaker 4Another thing I saw too was a guy I thought he left a dollar, Like, he just left a dollar in his little tray in the craft's table.
You know how you have your little tray right in front of you, and then he just left left a dollar And I was like, uh, this dude left his dollar there.
He's like, no, that that means he's coming back.
Speaker 1Oh, it's a placeholder.
Speaker 4Yeah, I didn't know that.
So they put a little plastic cover over his one dollar chip.
Speaker 1He held just an empty spot.
I've seen people do that when they'd left like hundreds of thousands of dollars there.
Speaker 5Yeah, but one dollar.
Yeah, that's weird.
Speaker 4He was gonna.
I guess he was one of the atm because he came back with more cash.
Our buddy, Oh man, that's funny.
Speaker 1This is Funnyvin, Can I tell the story?
I know openly?
Oh yeah, yeah, we went to the casino.
Speaker 5Our buddy Steve.
Speaker 1Really he was really drunk.
Speaker 4Let me give you an idea.
He shows up to the casino with a with a case of beer nice and puts it right under the table where he's gambling, and he just gets his own beers.
Server would come by and be like, no, I'm good, I got my own.
Speaker 5You know you can do that.
Speaker 4You can't do that.
Speaker 5I was like, start doing that.
Speaker 4You can't.
Speaker 1But he did had a lot of money because he had won a lot of money.
Was really drunk, went up, like walked away from the table.
They ended up going upstairs, going to bed, came back, forgot they had the mone They held the spot, they hed all his money, came back down and then had to learn that was all his money.
Speaker 4He took like a like a two hour nap, went down to the table, was like, let me try again.
He goes down and there like, Steve, I didn't know when you were coming back.
Here's all your money you left.
Speaker 5All his money was still there a lot.
Speaker 1He's like, what yeah, in the spot still?
Speaker 5Oh yeah?
They didn't just like okay, well we're gonna hold it over here for now hour.
Speaker 1Just dude, you're back two hours.
Speaker 5Pretty cool, that's awesome.
Speaker 1He was like surprised he had so much money too, He had no idea.
Speaker 4My wife reminded me that one time, one time we were I guess it was one of our fantasy trips.
Speaker 1Uh not fantasy football.
Speaker 4We going to fans Saper football trip and she I told her that I won like eight hundred dollars, which I did.
I bet on black.
I'd not black.
It was a hard ten put one hundred dollars on hard tend hit it and I lost all my money.
I'm like, I had no idea where that money is.
Turns out that was in my boot when I got back, I had all this these chips that I put in my boot.
I guess that night I was so drunk I got all my money and stuck in my boot.
Speaker 7I had no idea.
Speaker 1So you said you had all the chips, Yes, I still had all the tips in my boot.
How'd you get your money?
Speaker 4I guess the next time we went, I don't remember holding for that long.
I guess.
My wife's like, yeah, you don't remember that.
Speaker 1I'm like, no, I'm glad we don't have casinos here, Like it's novel.
Yeah to go and do something occasionally, but I'm glad we don't have them here.
Speaker 4But I've also heard people that live in Vegas is this we just don't go, like never gamble.
Yeah, when they live in Vegas, but.
Speaker 1They're probably not gamblers like us.
I think people that say that, like, yeah, it's like people that live in Nashville don't go to Broadway whether they not get drinkers anyway, Yeah, yeah, they go to a off bar.
Yeah, so you'd probably go to a smaller casino that wasn't on Broadway for one of the neighborhood.
Speaker 5You know, you're at a local casino, like when you walk in those small ones and fagots.
Oh yeah, these are like these people are here five days a week.
Speaker 1Yeah, I know.
All right, we're done, Thank you guys.
Speaker 5I gotta remember about the WTF parlay of the week.
Speaker 1Don't forget basically a dollar one million.
