Breaking their 34 game road home winning streak. My Red Raiders shout out to them. I think they're number 13 now on the polls. Shout out to them for a great victory on the road in Houston.
00:04:22

Yeah, I think they have at least a word of those back and I think those are throwbacks. I mean, I'm assuming they are, but I don't know the history behind it. Yeah, I don't know the history behind it either. I don't know that much. behind it You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Been in the game since we was before any of ah any of our mamas thought about having us in the womb 50 years to 91 year old. I was actually in the womb around that time.

00:08:39
Speaker
and that was the fourth professor's mixed bag bag bag bag bag and that's when the glasses come off as you know when the bag is done ah yes sports professor we appreciate you for your mixed bag all right so oh man so let's talk a little pro blow and kickoff We won't go into the game yet, but I know, Cantina, you just talked about a great kickoff to the Super Bowl and a couple of elbow stuff, but you guys
Pro Bowl Games and Declining Ratings
00:09:10
Speaker
weren't too much into it. I thought, I kind of like the, what is it? The dodge ball was kind of cool. I thought the flagpole was kind of cool. I mean, it was. So so I think, so here's my table. I think all the games were cool. Right. All the preliminary activities were cool. Right. I think Sunday was a complete bust.
00:09:31
Speaker
yeah any Anytime you got professional athletes, send them to sideline, play in spades. Bro, come on. Bro, come on, man. Really?
00:09:42
Speaker
I don't know what either of y'all are talking about because I didn't watch one moment of that nonsense this weekend. I know you're not a big proponent of the Pro Bowl game, so. No, forget the Pro Bowl games, okay? If I have a game that's 76 to 63, what is this? The NBA All-Star Game? What are we doing right now? You understand what he was saying? Like, come on now. hey You don't think it's fun to see your your favorite players out there? No, I don't want to see tug of war. I don't want to see flag football. What's that best one where you you you throw the quarterbacks throwing at the targets? Those are kind of cool.
00:10:19
Speaker
You know what, I used to play that on Nintendo Game Boy. It was fun then, not as most so much fun now watching these fools do. Something said, the ratings prove it. The ratings were down across the board 18% year over year from last year down to 4.7 million and that is the third year in a row that the ratings have dropped.
00:10:38
Speaker
or the Pro Bowl, as well as everything else that was very, or had that dropped from last year as well, that had very low ratings. Flag football makes me good. This is going to be one of the best quotes you've ever heard from the sports professor. But the parents love flag football to protect their kids, but they love real football. football because they love the hits, baby, let's go. They want to see the real thing. Don't nobody want to see no flag football with Tariq Hill and Marshawn Lattimore trying to go at each other. I should have used Mike Evans. That probably would have been a better comp there as they have the feud. but Probably, yeah. All right. So let us know what you guys think. Do you like any?
00:11:28
Speaker
any of the pro I mean, and i as as I said, flo I think the game, the preliminary games stuff are good. Like I said, the whole game was, the whole game Sunday was horrible, man. And I think that the that the in the NFL should be really ashamed of themselves.
Pro Bowl in Hawaii: A Lost Charm?
00:11:45
Speaker
I mean, when they remove the whole Pro Bowl from Hawaii,
00:11:49
Speaker
That would be now the me ah was That was the biggest mistake. When we were in Hawaii at Aloha Stadium, nice know that was nice the hub for the Pro Bowl. Soldiers, all the families, people tailgated. I mean, it was ah it was a big extravaganza.
00:12:05
Speaker
Right. what not only Not only was it a big extravaganza, because we talked about our experiences, because we've both been there in separate times, enjoying the Aloha and the Ohana.
00:12:19
Speaker
none no not a Beautiful, beautiful island. it's cut out mile hot out there But anyways, it was a great time. It's something different. But that's the thing. Because it was not just about the soldiers and being in Hawaii and being on ah um ah you know um all these other things. What made it really special is that it was different. And it was something that the players actually wanted to go to. two right Going to Orlando is not an event for these players to go party and live nightclub in Miami. It's like, it's not a thing. They wanted to go to Hawaii. All expenses paid. Wacky Keef. Wacky Keef. Wacky Keef. That red lion. You can go to the other islands. You can island hop over there, you know. Them guys want to go to Turtle Bay. Right? You can go to Kauai. That's where people played hard with effort. was way you sicker but In the last few years, they so that's why they moved it because they quit playing hard out there. They quit.
00:13:24
Speaker
which is which is another problem. I agree, they did start the tail off. but They were basically playing tag football. That's only one thing anyways, right? like At any point, yeah, these these salaries have gotten so inflated to the point where these athletes are trying to protect themselves in a meaningless game, and it is a meaningless game. I don't know how else you could do this. um is earth Is there any chance to bring it back?
00:13:53
Speaker
And if so, how? What do we do? make really Go ahead. if you like it man here's the Here's the thing. If the NFL, won if they want to generate revenue, take it back to Hawaii. You got to take it back to Hawaii. People want to migrate to a place where they can party, enjoy one another, good food, good vibes, good entertainment, and enjoy themselves. Hawaii is the is the profound place to do that.
00:14:21
Speaker
I mean, it was for so many years there. it just It's just odd that they changed it. And it's so stupid. yeah o And as Omar stated, nobody wants you. Why would I go to Orlando? Camera ground stadium. Why would I go to there?
00:14:39
Speaker
right Yeah. Yeah. Because it was different. It was different. You're out in the in Hawaii, all the hello i'm telling you're like okayop there the different things you can do out there. It's just away from everything. Beaches everywhere. Them guys are wild now. They riding out Omar. Yeah. hands over and They You could probably rent some really nice houses. I've seen some really nice houses off the beach there. they They could probably rent out when they're there for the week and have a nice, you know, team parties and whatnot. and
00:15:10
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what to do to bring it back, but yeah, it was a good time out there. Go ahead. The professor here, the fourth professor here, bringing in, as you all know me from this show, to be the solutions oriented individual here on this show. ah I have an out of the box solution that I've never heard from anyone else. Okay. I was going to bring one up. but go ahead sir i'd like to hear you know my mind's mind's just kind of cute mine's just kind of like i'm just okay go with yours then go with yours i'll do mine last time i'm serious okay well i was just trying to see if possibly maybe and canteen can we make the probo great again maybe the the president can bring it back
00:16:01
Speaker
Suggesting he's good friends with Godel. Maybe he can he can go and talk to him. Hey, look, let's get the Super Bowl back in Hawaii where it belong. I mean, he's a negotiator. He's got the Pro Bowl. You said Super Bowl. Yeah, the Pro Bowl back to Hawaii.
00:16:17
Speaker
I don't think they need, I don't think they need that high a level of acceptance to do it though. I don't think that doesn't really, they could just move it back. They don't need the president's approval to move it. Not unless they need approval, but I'm saying, you know, making, you know what, it would be huge. It'd be huge.
00:16:35
Speaker
I mean, yeah, I mean, I'm sure, I'm sure, I'm sure his, his voice obviously goes a long way with a lot of people and he just friends with them, then yeah, it can't hurt. I'm saying friends with him, he might, you know, give you a little shove in the direction. Yeah. Hey, you know, hey, if that's how, if that's what it takes to get him back and I like your, your, your Donald Trump impression, that was very funny. If that's what it takes to get him back, then, then fine. But I don't think you need, I don't think you need that high level of clearance in order to get him back. Why? you like I just think you need like some little secretary to sign off on it and then it's like, oh, you really need. Thank you for tuning in. Look at this. The pro ball. Like we did back in the old neighborhoods, right? Street ball. Right. You know what I didn't like? Some of the games that they had, I liked them. Didn't they? Wasn't that the weekend they had the like the fastest man in the field? Didn't they do some of those out there or was that something else? I thought that was that week. I told you that. I didn't watch.
00:17:29
Speaker
That was on Friday. but no one I'm talking about the the old school. They used to do the at And they used to do like how many times how many times can you bench 225 and the big guys would be out there pumping the 25. They still do the tug of war, which I think that's classic. Yeah, tug of war is classic. Yeah. And all that stuff is fine.
00:17:50
Speaker
when the game actually matters. That makes this stuff fun. It's like in the NBA, when the game actually mattered, it made the dunk contest and the skills competition fun. But when you have no matter, none of it is fun. Now, can I give you my skills? Go ahead. Go ahead. Make your pitch. Out of the box. Never heard from anybody this before. Coming from the sports professor, you all want to holler at me? Come talk to me.
Should Pro Bowl Be Moved to Preseason?
00:18:18
Speaker
I believe that they should have the Pro Bowl in the preseason of the next year. So when they have the Hall of Fame game anyways, right? You brought this up last year, I think. I don't know if I have if if i did, but they brought it up my you brought you the beginning this year last year. You brought it up. I remember you had this idea. Go ahead. well This guy has really good ideas. This guy has great ideas. but
00:18:48
Speaker
um Anyways, you play this in like the second week of the preseason, all the Pro Bowlers get together when they were probably going to get out there and play at least a half anyways, and they all get out to play, and it's actually going to be competitive because they are at least semi as much as it would be in the preseason, which is more than it is now in the Pro Bowl. Wow. They're saying the Hall of Fame game would be the place to do that.
00:19:12
Speaker
I wouldn't even do it at the Hall of Fame game. I would still keep the Hall of Fame game, and I would do it like a week or two in into the preseason. Like when the starters were actually projecting. Remember, the starters don't usually play so usually. only Yeah, my only problem with that is I think there a lot at the beginning of a season, a lot of owners will be afraid of injury.
00:19:33
Speaker
You know, we're going to put him in the pu pre-season game anyways. was What's the difference? That's true. That's true. That's what I'm saying. You only do it every week when the starters play the most. If that's week three, you know what I mean? Right. Right. as Most people do it either the week prior. Yeah. The most but um ah week before the last pre-season game is usually when they put in some starters. Okay. That's fair. I think that's a fair, that's good analysis professor. That's why we call you the art the fet sir
00:20:05
Speaker
and ball and buzzs chickening out ball in bus he comes on all the time twenty four on the live hit that
00:20:13
Speaker
you know some comments come over to facebook or youtube and give us some comments champaoss is commenting we'd love champaos's comments
00:20:22
Speaker
Unfortunately, ah he says better yet when the NFL will have a real franchise in Hawaii, so travel wouldn't be ideal, but to have an actual team would be cool. I mean i don't think it would be as much about the travel as much as it would be about.
00:20:36
Speaker
the support for an NFL team. As much as I love my Ohana in Hawaii, football is not the big sport in the world, and it wasn't like it was bad. When I was there, it was pretty big. I mean, you think about Mariano from there, Tua from there, a lot of players are from, you know, from Hawaii. I'm not saying it's not as big as here, is what I'm saying.
00:21:01
Speaker
yeah that sure it'd be hard it'd be hard uh travel that would be difficult but yeah i mean just bring the pobo back to hawaii come on let's go if they wanted to uh if they ever wanted to they could they could do a champ plus once but we ah restore the pobo stadium and put it yeah that's yeah restore yeah that would be great I've been updated with new screens up there, you know, put some good, you know, make some updates to it and bring it back. Yeah, that'd be nice. All right. So let's go. We'll talk a little Super Bowl here at the end. Oh, I got a great idea. We get a new Hawaii franchise and we replace hot cake steaks Bronco.
00:21:46
Speaker
oh No? No? No, no. The Oahu Broncos? Well, i did i did what I did see a story on the news the other day that said that Broncos, they wanted to like a new stadium and they're like, oh wait, we may not need you here. You may can go outside the zoo. Send the Broncos out. Send them to another, another but and maybe they could be the Utah Broncos. I think there's sports riding over there. There you go. The Utah Broncos.
00:22:14
Speaker
All right, yeah, we got hey if you don't show up Jake we're gonna get we're gonna get you there's camp Ross project you commented again Hawaii Raiders Vegas don't care about y'all Wow
00:22:35
Speaker
okay i don't care what they said about the raiders I got a good head coach and you got chip kelly's your office coordinator Kelly What do you think of that move? You're not a big chip Kelly fan though, Omar. I already know that. That was not a big kelly guy. That was strategic. I'm just saying. Strategic. I'm just saying.
00:22:58
Speaker
e to I too, Brutus? Is this what you do to my heart, Canteen? Is this what you do to my heart? am i Are you trying to give me a heart attack? Are you trying to kill me on this great program called the Bottom Line Sports? You the chipster, Mr. Chipperoonie.
00:23:28
Speaker
the chip like you you that you that better more He hates He hates him. He's got his reasons, but... I don't hate anyone, first of all. Well, I mean, you you dislike him. Sportate. You sportate him. You sportate him. Because he is a piece of crap everywhere he goes, like Lane Kiffin. And just last year, he left UCLA after recruiting the number one quarterback in the country who then subsequently left us.
00:23:56
Speaker
to go win a championship as the Ohio State O.T. and now wants to come join Pete Carroll in Las Vegas. Tom, Brady, no, you're going back to when I liked it before. Tom, Shady, you know, but join Joe Iron. What is going on? No, why did we bring Jim Kelly in? You've got both.
00:24:16
Speaker
We've got Tom Brady as your owner. Chip Kelly as your OC. Let's bring in Bill Billicheet for the defensive coordinator. No. You would become a Cowboys fan, maybe. That's what I'm hoping for. That would be that would be the trifecta of hell. And yes, that would be the Cowboys fan. Yes. Yeah, I'm just waiting for it to happen. i Because you you keep speaking into existence, Omar, by but denouncing it. You keep speaking it into the API.
00:24:46
Speaker
olderlay say you keep speaking My he texted me yesterday and he was like, that's popper rub that was a shoutout box you see like did you see what happened? you I was like, question mark, question mark, question mark. He was like, the Raiders knew O.C. and I just didn't respond because i at first I i was out. You know already at that point.
00:25:08
Speaker
I had already known. I had to lead him up first. so I decided better of it. But wow i was humble how you I was at the gym when he texted me and so I didn't have time to respond then and I thought I did but I forgot about it. But I'm glad I did because i the thing I told him later after the yesterday but after the show was this guy is hunting my life down. He is now hunting me down everywhere he goes just to make my life a miserable living.
00:25:46
Speaker
Damn you chip telling. And if Lane Kiffin comes back, I'm leaving the whole damn country. I'm going to Hawaii. Oh, man. You know what you know would be even worse? Is if, you know, in a year or two, Carol decides to retire and then they move him up to be the head coach. Don't you dare.
00:26:12
Speaker
You choose fear! Big time! Maybe he learned from his mistakes. Come on. Camp Ross, he says, give him a give a chance. Give me a chance! Why we can why is it that he... Man, give me a chance, bruh. Why is it that he burns bitches everywhere he goes and every fan base that he's coached ends up disliking himself? Except Wildstate. He's up dis... Right?
00:26:38
Speaker
All right, let's go on. Hey, Omar, Omar, here's my last one. The Eagles are much better off without him after they hired his ass, hired Howie Roseman, and eight years later, they've been shooting both great times. How about you ask the Eagles fan base how they feel about Mr. Chipster? Mr. Chipster. Omar, here's my last question. Here's my question. I thought you'd be good for the Eagles. I don't know. Here's my question, Omar. Do you think you guys will have a successful season in 25? That's the question.
AFC West Playoff Team Performances Analyzed
00:27:08
Speaker
Do you make you think think your borderline playoff team, what about that? whoa we' not be how I don't know. I'm asking the question. Probably going to be three playoff teams from the AFC West. The Broncos are only going to get better. I hate to say that because I don't like it, but they're not going to get one push out in another year. about nick ah Well, maybe. You you never know. Maybe. No, no. We're going to win another like five games, maybe six, maybe seven if we're lucky. No. Oh man. The two technical homes, Justin Herbert, are gone out of our division, especially Patrick Holmes. We have no chance.
00:27:46
Speaker
don right go The don't have no chance either. they get they got you being got no to And a good OC now though. Maybe they they put a plan together to bring, maybe they bring Sam Donald over. ah Let me give you a nice little metaphor here. If I were to come over to your house and I would give you a big bag of coal.
00:28:08
Speaker
And I would have moved it over to you. And I was going to say, sir, please make us diamonds for the bottom line sports show out of this hole. Your ass wouldn't be able to make no diamonds out of coals, brother. That's what I'm saying. Be careful. I would have said the improper version with the language, but I held myself from it. People cannot use on good pieces to make a good team. For lack of a better word, it's not a real word.
00:28:37
Speaker
Jam begin coming at your Raiders. Raider fans are never happy. They could get a top-line steak and they're it looking for chicken. Dang! Shot fired. Shot fired. I quit the boxing league. I quit the boxing league. He runs a boxing ah predictions league. I'm sure he'd welcome any other people that wanted to jump in. Okay, And speaking of, I got Country Box tonight. Y'all tune in there live on YouTube right now, Country Box. I was from McCall, the former World Heavyweight Champion fights tonight. like I will be there to get the exclusive interview and as well. My del Sando will fight as well again fall down.
00:29:21
Speaker
OK, good deal. Hey, so real quick, we're going to talk about some of these trades, biggest trade probably ever in and NBA history. Luca traded two to the I would. Hey, I got to go at eight. So I think we should. If you can, we should. do You want to do the Super Bowl first?
Luca's Trade to Lakers: A Win-Win?
00:29:39
Speaker
I can leave by 8. All you want to do Super Bowl stuff? We can have time to get the Super Bowl. If not, we can. You'd rather do Super Bowl? No, I just don't know if we're going to have enough time to do all of it because that could be a long conversation to live with.
00:29:52
Speaker
Okay. Yeah, let's do it just because and then we'll come back to the other trades. We'll just do this one because it's a pretty big day. I want to get your thoughts on it, Professor. Luke had traded to the Lakers for Anthony Davis and some change, you know.
00:30:08
Speaker
goes to the Mavericks. One of the biggest trades. I mean, let's say it was a star for a star. This has probably never happened, Professor. Maybe you can help a star for a star in his prime, even. Luca, 25 years old in his prime, still took the Mavericks to the Finals last year, a shocking trade throughout the sports world and the NBA especially. Ken, give us your thoughts on this. Who won in this trade and, you know, just do what you thought. I think the matter is one in this trade, man. Oh, okay. Okay. Man, look, man, look, look, look, 300 pounds. Overweight, sirens, hell, ankle, ankle. Wow, wow. He's not where you need to be, man. Here's the thing, Flo.
00:30:56
Speaker
yeah the The Dallas Mavericks had their hopes and they had their they had their mindset for a guy like him to to be the guy to lead and manage and make their organization to take them to the pinnacle to win a championship, right? They were banging on Luca. They were banging on Luca. I think the Lakers were stupid as hell to get rid of AD. AD was a pivotal player in the organization.
00:31:26
Speaker
He was. He was. To me, he was. But I mean, there's no thought. I mean, Luca helped take them to the final zone. Is that something? Is that something? ra for littlego janet buffker may run that through lebron james They were playing in New York that Saturday night, everything transpired Saturday night. LeBron James, they was out eating dinner, Galloping, having a good time. Everything happens Saturday night, Sunday morning.
00:31:54
Speaker
i mean twitter to it's true I mean, I mean, there's some news that Luca had just bought a house a couple of weeks before, a multi-million dollar house there in the Dallas area. So he had no idea this was going on. Uh, professor, your thoughts on this and, uh, Canteen says, okay, go ahead and then you go, professor. Oh, please go. Luca. Yeah.
00:32:26
Speaker
What is he going to add to the Lakers? What is he going to add to LeBron? What is he going to try to build a championship, build a team? I think AD is more value added to Dallas. And I think Dallas got more of a shot to win the championship to me. Well, I tend to agree because I think what Luca adds is a little more offense, but you lose some rebounding and you lose a lot of defense. So maybe next year, maybe eventually this is a great trade for the Lakers. But right now, I think you're right about the Mavericks. What are your thoughts, Professor? A lot of fans upset out there. I saw a video of a fan yelling, look, there's supposed to be a statue of Luca out here. What is the ownership doing? And he was going crazy. But give us your thoughts, Professor. I mean, that's
00:33:15
Speaker
I am not a Dallas Mavericks fan, obviously, but if I were a Mavericks fan or if there were some equivalent that happened, like we traded Jason Batum, you're damn right I would be off my rocker. That's ridiculous. He is a 25 year old, five time all NBA basketball prodigy.
00:33:45
Speaker
that is in the MVP voting year in and year out the face of your franchise already at 25 years old hasn't even been hit his prime yet This is someone you build statues out of. He had no intention of leaving Dallas. He had never told them he wanted to leave Dallas. Maybe in the end he would have but they had a really great team that just made the finals last year and it makes no sense whatsoever for you to break that core up. Now Nico Harrison, the GM,
00:34:21
Speaker
god bless your brother because as i said on my program yesterday the professor seminar mente shameless plug subscriber blonde buds uh you're gonna be working at waffle house you may be working here like he's getting when it's all said and done okay you that because You have one to two years to win a championship between before injuries, retirement or any other shenanigans take force and break this injured duo up. These are off injured 32, 33 year old players that are having all world seasons right now. Yes. So you better hope on your behind.
00:34:59
Speaker
that they win this year or next year because if not, you're going to end up right back to housekeeping, buddy. Right back to housekeeping, right back to La Quinta Inn. They're going to have you all coffee and mopping duty because this may be the worst trade I've ever seen and even even, I take that back, not the worst trade I've ever seen. One of the craziest trades I've ever seen. And if this even does work out, let's say it works and they win it this year, but then you sacrifice the franchise and traded them away and you suck for the next 20 years. What does that mean? Cause you might've been able to win at least two or three with Luca. right' blow i Yeah. I mean, there has to be something, I said this when, uh,
00:35:48
Speaker
you know I can't remember it was when somebody got traded I said well that that team knows that player pretty well maybe they know something that everybody else doesn't know so maybe do they know something that maybe everybody else doesn't really know I know that and Mark Cuban gave up his ah Majority ownership, a lot of things changed. well When Mark Cuban was their majority, they catered to Luca. And then when that changed a couple years ago, I think, maybe three years ago now. But anyway, ah that everything had changed. you know and They weren't catering to Luca as much. They started to change that mentality. and
00:36:25
Speaker
I mean, Nico was there. He brought this championship caliber team together. I mean, he brought the supporting cast, Kyrie, PJ Washington, now AAD. I mean,
00:36:37
Speaker
It seems like they want a more defensive oriented team and they want, they don't necessarily want a superstar or a, you know, I don't know. I mean, 80 is still superstar. He's on, ah he's on the other end of his career, but he still puts, can put up big numbers. I don't know what the mentality is, but I think what champs says here, short-term Dallas wins. And I think long-term Lakers and Luca win. I agree with that.
00:37:04
Speaker
I think he almost, he almost has to bring a championship this year or next year for this to really be a trade that Dallas doesn't regret. Right, right. I'm not your professor. I didn't, I didn't press, I didn't press, I didn't press for Austin. Professor Broson!
00:37:26
Speaker
He froze on us, Professor. If you're frozen, we can't hear you. Mute master. Mute master, the frozen professor. Maybe he'll be back in a minute, but yeah, so let's move on on this. I don't know if Professor can come back. We'll give him a minute, but any final thoughts on this? You're saying... like do you agree with what champ says no short term it's dallas men's and long-term lakers or you don't you don't seem to believe in loop at all yeah you gotta get in shape you gotta get fit first
00:37:57
Speaker
um I mean, so I'll say this, he's always not in shape, but he's still producing while he's not in shape. That's what I'm saying. I'll say that, so it's kind of like it's kind of like me and you being soldiers, how they use the ACFT with the ABCP program. I mean, you get, you know, 600 ACFT and you turban over, it don't matter. It don't matter. He's kind of in it in in in a in the in that boat where, you know, he's performing and he kind of turban over, but he's still putting up numbers.
00:38:25
Speaker
Yeah. And I mean, I think, I think the worst thing for him, I think, and you and I will agree, I guess, for him, since he's young, all that extra weight and kind of not being in great shape doesn't really hurt him now, but as he gets older, he's going to, maybe that'll, as he gets older, it's going to bring his body down. So I don't shorten his career because he's not staying healthy. He's not staying. But maybe that's a good point.
00:38:49
Speaker
You got to start now, man. I mean, it must be elliptical, or it's the bike, or it's the treadmill. I mean, you got to do something to keep yourself intact and be disciplined in structure, man. And maybe could this be that tipping point? He's with LeBron, who's obviously in great shape, has a lot of trainers, learned from LeBron, and then also put a chip on his shoulder saying, hey, I took him to the finals and they got rid of me. But here's the thing about a guy like LeBron Floyd.
00:39:18
Speaker
I'd rather be a poor man with no money and to have all of my time because my time is much more valuable than money. I can be broke and go get more money. But what people fail to realize is that once time lost, you can't get it back.
00:39:35
Speaker
So I value my time, and so I would want somebody like LaGranda to invest them in me and help me build products and different things that shape me and make me and mold me into being a great leader than giving me $200. If I blew $200, it ain't nothing, right?
00:39:50
Speaker
Right. And what do you think, Professor? I mean, Canteen is saying, because of how out of shape he is, he may be able to overcome because he's that he's young, but he's saying long-term, this could shorten his career because he's not staying in shape, he's not taking proper nutrition and all that, as as you see LeBron does and how long he's left, but he may be just an anomaly. But still, usually when you take care of your body, you tend to last a little longer in these sports.
00:40:16
Speaker
Yeah. Shout out champ Ross for the hilarious comp turning into shark camp. I know, right? He got, he got super big at the end there. But he apparently, you know, apparently all by all means. But I mean, he was in great shape most of the time. Not like Luca. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. And so this is my thing. He's 25 years old. Are you telling me?
00:40:44
Speaker
that that's not something that a young kid will grow into you? Are you telling me that that's not something a young kid will eventually take serious? Most young players don't take things as serious when they're younger as they go older, as they get older, mostly inside of nutrition, mostly inside of ways to perform better i was talking yesterday about on my program about how ai used to go out every night but come back and drop 50 every night on your on your head uh you know because he is as great as he is and that's who luka is and luka was averaging 28
00:41:19
Speaker
eight and eight before his injury i cannot say that enough like he's who cares if he's the if he looks like the pillow boy doe boy i don't get it i don't get you see what yokich is doing out there yokich don't look no better just because they don't they got they don't look like they're they're in great shape just like they look like they got dad bods don't mean they're not in shape they're still happy
00:41:42
Speaker
Joker has looked that way his whole life. I think I don't mean has always been no career yeah to me to be had meant think
00:41:54
Speaker
Okay, so maybe he likes to be good. Maybe he likes to live good, okay? You know, I remember there was a man one time, we talked about him on this program last week. Okay. ah you When you sleep in his silk sheets, you'll want to get up and train in the morning. I mean, maybe that's just So, yeah, I mean, it's true. I mean, but he's just isn't it hasn't been he's been sleeping the silk sheets and he's been like 18 I mean eighty still jumping twenty eight eight made the mvp numbers chair year in and year oh here is it What about this professor how much better could he be if he took his nutrition and health? So I'm saying He's 25 years old and how much like you long his career is
00:42:41
Speaker
you know into his late 20s early you should know professor as a man he should be able to party as a man who late into his 20s and 30s I can tell you ah that you end up slowing down eventually and taking things more seriously right but I mean as a professional I think that's gonna shorten but sir Sure, it will. But ok if he if he has three MVPs and three championships before the age of 35, who cares? Retire. OK. What do you mean? It depends on your on your your goals, right? I mean, if you want to be one of the greatest ever. I know who you're not getting three championships from. I know who you're not getting three MVPs and a couple championships. And yeah, I guess that's OK. You gotta i got to worry, man. You got to worry. You know who they're not getting three championships from?
00:43:34
Speaker
o Kyrie and A.D., that's who they not getting two championships from. You sports hate Kyrie, so I mean, I got it. I don't, I don't. I have no problem with that. No, you sports hate him. No, I think Kyrie. I love his game. Do I hate what he did to my team? By the way that he smooshed us up and then left us brokenhearted like a jilted girlfriend at the Alterster.
00:44:04
Speaker
Sure. I was upset about it, but I think Kyrie is an amazing player. I think Kyrie is a championship piece, but I don't think that they win more than one, and they better deal with next year and next year. Probably this year. Okay. All right. We'll get back to some NBA. Let's get to this sports professor has to go. and I don't know if he's coming. He's coming to be late because he's...
00:44:25
Speaker
You know, everybody out there, they don't know that Haché Jake is a Frito-Lay man. So he's out there producing all those chips, those Lay chips and Doritos and all that good stuff for your Super Bowl party. So let's give a shout out to Jake. Haché Jake making all those... potato chips and the whole nation to celebrate the Super Bowl and you have all their dip so but yeah he may not make he was running late he said this is their busiest time of the year. Why not put my man out like that?
00:45:01
Speaker
It's all about like that. He's telling the public what the man do on his own. We talked about him making Fritos. You can even make fun of him every time about Fritos. Anybody say officially that was his job, I was joking around.
00:45:18
Speaker
Now someone that might have a fake offense to hot take Jake's crazy opinions may try to go hunt him down at the nearest Frito-Lay plant. I mean, okay. All right. All right. I like you. Like I said, he told me. He told lay plates. Better give me my bacon head, sucker. Give me my damn pork rind. I've been telling you, man, these are bacon heads. Bacon heads, man. Give the professors bacon heads. All right, so let's go. A few little things here. I don't know if you want to go. Do you have any prop bets that you know of, Professor? I was going to go on a couple, just some fun ones, real quick. A couple of them.
00:45:56
Speaker
Do you have any that you want to bring in? You don't do prop bets with Canteen. You know I got to go. You better get to more important stuff like the game. Oh, yeah. Okay. All right. We'll do prop bets with Canteen. So let's do a Super Bowl pick and analysis here at Canteen. The Philadelphia Eagles versus the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday evening Super Bowl Sunday once again.
Super Bowl Preview: Eagles vs Chiefs
00:46:22
Speaker
Do you know the line? What's the line now?
00:46:26
Speaker
what it happens now life over under jump So it's one, minus one for the Chiefs. It started at one and a half, oh i and now it's down to one. So a close game, almost to pick them here. A rematch, so to speak. A lot of people like the Eagles. Mainly, I'm going to just put this out because of the defense and take on Barkley, which is a good reason to like them for in this game. Canteen, what are your thoughts here?
00:46:56
Speaker
man this is gonna be a tight game across the board man my my only objection is just right here man i don't know what the referees are capable bill of doing oh my because and here's the thing flo we've we've seen a a track record of what the the NFL referees are capable of doing when it comes to Kansas City I'm just calling a spade a spade, man. You're not calling nothing a spade. You're calling a heart a spade. This has nothing to do with that. When you are named and missed every year, those are just highlighted because you can't decide. You say you read, nigga. You say you read, nigga. You say you say as soon as you be reading, nigga. Flo, you watch NFL every Sunday.
00:47:42
Speaker
Exactly. There's called missed all the time. Missed made every game that no one is perfect. That's great. So besides of ref it was real analysis other than the I was in the reps are going to give the team. What are you I'm serious. I mean, talk about, ah you know, I don't know. Talk about the A.J. Brown Honda. So so when you when you when you when you look at Philadelphia as a team,
00:48:08
Speaker
When you look at Jay Jayden Hurts as a decent quarterback, when you look at the run the the run game, the run game is immaculate. staycor barkeley You look at AJ Brown. For me, the Philadelphia Eagles are the better team that will put together on both sides of the ball. in In my heart, I feel that the Eagles are the better team.
00:48:32
Speaker
Okay, so what what it makes you think that because the Eagles had an easier path wouldn't you say they had an easier path they had to play the Rams in a blizzard and we played an up-and-coming spun keep commander's team. they They didn't play the best. best you say team You think all those teams that the... Listen to what I'm saying. You're not intercepting what I'm saying. I said this three or four weeks ago Kansas City was the weakest team that went into the playoffs. The weakest AFC team that made it to the playoffs. You said that in the in the beginning of the playoffs. And they're in But they're in the Super Bowls. You were wrong. You went wrong and you might be right here but...
00:49:22
Speaker
You're missing the point of what I'm saying. Okay, what are you saying? The refs that carried him to the Super Bowl? Is that what you're saying? You know what time it is, man. Make it make sense. You know what time it is. You know what time it is. Are you serious? Omar, he know what time He's calling us Spade of Heart. I'm telling you.
00:49:49
Speaker
you know what time it is omar you know He's turning it upside down, painting it red and taking a little stem off. Watch the game Sunday. I want you to watch the game, play i um what watch play by play action and see what's up. Okay, and I'm going to get all the Eagles calls that were missed, that that they were supposed to be called against the Eagles that didn't get called.
00:50:10
Speaker
Okay. Yo, Canteen, Canteen. Yo, Canteen, he said you hit him with the, you had five possible, but you called for seven. And you know, he did like a month ago. You call for a Boston, but you only had nine in your hands. but a ah Bro, come on, man. So what do you got? I mean, give us your pick then. What's your call? What are you calling me? I'm going Philly, 30-27. Philly about three. Philly wins 30-27. OK. I'm going Philly about three. Who's your MVP then? Give us that one, since. Say, go on Barkley. Say, go on Barkley. Say, go on Barkley. Say, go on Barkley. I'm going to run him down. OK. He going to run him down. Omar, give us your thoughts.
00:51:06
Speaker
Yeah, I agree with- I hope the rest are on our side. I agree with Canteen's astute opinion, even though it's okay- Astute? Hey, wait. Hey, Omar said astute. Astute? You know what that means, Canteen?
00:51:24
Speaker
but many are stupid beings man only don't try this so my like yeah man joy's that well um here' what He's excited about the word i i like when you get what does me come on no no each time me like and i want I don't know what it means I mean i'm a walking decent scenario bro and what a strong any scenario ah aud intelligent educated you both television don't to I I I Although it took a damn long ass five-minute route for you to get there. I don't know where what took you so long to get there, but you're right. Stay calm for driving on the offense. Zach Pawn on the defense. Two great pickups.
00:52:23
Speaker
Philly, Delphina, Eagles, that thing. I mean, aside from that early season, picked up when people felt that Nick Cerrioni and Jalen Hertzworth, and Flo was one of the biggest, oh, they're fighting. There are so many problems.
00:52:38
Speaker
You're going to break up in about a minute. Hey, let me just come up here, and you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, hey, hey, hey, maybe, maybe I was wrong. Hey, real quick, let me see that. No, maybe I was wrong. Maybe they like chaos there. Maybe they like things to be chaotic and maybe they, they thrive off chaos. That's possible. What did I tell you then? Which I will tell you. That's fair, but that's not usually how things work. Every coach have issues.
00:53:08
Speaker
controlled chaos. That's it. You still have issues every quarterback and every head coach buttheads because the philosophies don't are the most automatic at most times. i i Brady and Belichick. Possibly. That could be good. at good Yeah.
00:53:28
Speaker
Yeah, and so I agree with that, and I agree with Saquon, right? our Our MVP here on the bottom line of the score, Saquon Barkley. Saquon Barkley, man. I believe it. The Chiefs, they haven't scored over 30 points all year long till this last game. um i gonna And where are they? Barely eclipsed it. They won 17 games in a row now by one score. 17 games in a row by one score. It has to go the other way.
00:53:58
Speaker
Patrick Mahomes, he's the GOAT right now. He made me the GOAT when it's all said and done, depending on how many can would can he cast Brady or whatever. But he has to cast Montana, Joe Montana. Well, wouldn't you say this would this would give him a bump up three-peat? Something no one's ever done and in the modern era. That would be a big bump. But flow them as you Do you sincerely believe they can three-peat?
00:54:25
Speaker
and and And I'm asking you based off of what can they be? I sincerely think they can repeat. If you want to give me, give you some reasons, I can give you some, but I said, I think they can. I think it's going to be very difficult. It's been very difficult all year. That's why they've been winning these close games because You're yeah you' you're trying to just get ready for the postseason, that really. I mean, if you're a Chiefs and this is your third Super Bowl, you're really just waiting for the playoffs, really. I mean, you want to be home home field, so that's something a goal they had, I guess, that could keep them you know winning games. But I think that they were a little bit kind of like the Boston Celtics are this year. They're kind of going they were going through the motions, trying to get to the season. If they win the game, they win the game, but they're not going to, you know, it's just kind of keeping them motivated. Hey, let's get home field advantage.
00:55:12
Speaker
And so I think that they were were they were needing to get to the playoffs, and I think that's what they were doing all season, is that they were just trying to get through the season. okay That's what I think. I can give you a reason why I think they can win, but you want to finish your thoughts, Professor? Sure, yeah. no exactly Let me me go off on what you said. The Chiefs won consistently games too close.
00:55:37
Speaker
Saquon Barkley is a major factor for the Philadelphia Eagles. With their offensive line, Jalen Carter on that great defensive line. They've forced 19 turnovers in their past six games, including their past four games. They've had three plus turnovers each game. Remember my other stat, Jalen hurts.
00:56:01
Speaker
And when he passes for under 184 yards, the Philadelphia Eagles are now 6-0 in the playoffs. So if you run the ball, control the clock, allow your de defense to be a bully, your offensive line to be a bully. It is a recipe for success. And when the other team has not scored pretty much all season long until the end of the season, when they finally have one game against another high scoring team,
00:56:28
Speaker
but not a team that has as good as the defense is Philadelphia. No. Okay. and Give me the Philadelphia Eagles. I agree with Canteen. Philadelphia Eagles are going to win. You know what? I was thinking 26 because this is what my thought process for. when At first I had 23-21 because I thought something flutey was going to happen.
00:56:51
Speaker
No, because at first I had 24-21, I did. But then I went to 23-21 because I was like, I think things need to happen. But then I said, you know what? That's too low of a score. I need to bump that up. but Right. But I went to 11-24, Eagle. And now I think something flu can happen just as we change the street. Okay. um I'm going to 27.
00:57:12
Speaker
to twenty... Six? Twenty-seven to twenty-five. How would this... Oh, that's a weird number. Twenty-five. Yeah, hold on. How would this best work? Twenty-seven to twenty... You can get there. I mean, that that would be a weird number, but that would be you oh with what you're thinking. Fifteen, twenty-two, and a field goal. Twenty-five. Twenty-seven, twenty-five. Eagles win.
00:57:38
Speaker
27 25 Wow, okay. All right people are out there. Let us know what you guys think who's gonna win this game Here's kind of my thoughts on this game ah I know that the hot take Jake has talked about big mango defense and they are playing well ah But variations of Vic Fangio's defense Mahomes' 8-0 against Vic Fangio, lifetime. And so I don't know if that's going to necessarily help. Now they do have the number one defense overall. ah Chiefs are 16, but they play ah you know they play really well, or actually their ninth in defense, total defense. So they're not shabby themselves on defense. And I think they have
00:58:18
Speaker
I think that the you have to stop take one, right? Or slowing down, right? ah The Chiefs have not had, I think in the last, is it 18 playoff games, I believe they haven't had a hundred yard rusher in that many games. So I'm not saying that the Eagles won't get a hundred yards, but I'm saying maybe snake one gets slowed down. I think he'll probably break a hundred. I think it'll be hard fought a hundred yards. And I think Jaylen will get some rushing yards as well. So I think this is going to be a close game because If the Eagles want to win, they have to rely on Saquon and rely on Jalen's legs as well. And they have to keep Jalen within that 20, 24 to 25 attempts, passing attempts per game. And I think they're not, Jalen is, if you look at the last few games, he's, he, the outside has been his, his money, his money. And they are not going to allow him to.
00:59:09
Speaker
throw it to the outside they're gonna make him throw it to the middle of the field and that's Jaylen's weakness and they're gonna try and slow down Saquon as much as they can I don't think they're gonna sell out per se and we all know ah spags has very exotic blitzes And I don't know if Jalen is going to be able to decipher those. You saw that even Josh Allen could not decipher some of those weird defenses that they did with one blitz, corner blitz that they hadn't done all season. So I'm i'm expecting Spaggs to do something like that in key situations. And I think that Patrick Mahomes, although he doesn't rush during the season as much, he will have a lot more rushing yards in this just to pick up that first down and get the keep the drive going. I think he'll have quite a few more rushes than he normally has.
00:59:54
Speaker
which he does every season. And so I think he'll have one big run. I don't know if it'll be a touchdown, but it'll be a big run, maybe around 20 yards or so, 25 yards, something big. He did that in the last Super Bowl, as you remember, on a bum ankle. And so I just think that they're going to do just enough to win this game. it'll probably I think it's going to be somewhat of a shootout because I think that's sake one is going to have a decent game. He's not going to be totally shut out, but I think they're going to limit his big 60, 70 yarders, right? They're going to, he might explode for 10, 20 here and there, maybe a 25 or 30 yarder, but they're not going to, he's not going to have these big explosive runs and that's what
01:00:35
Speaker
kind of fuels the Eagles offense is those big runs when he breaks off a big one and occasionally he'll he'll do two or three in the game but he'll just break out for one and that's that's what kind of gets the offense going and gets everybody charged up so I think they're gonna slow down Saekwon not necessarily stop him and they're gonna make Jaylen throw to the middle and I think that Jalen will make a mistake in this game that will give the the Chiefs a chance to go up by two scores and they keep the Eagles at bay and they'll just go back and forth in scoring. I think the Chiefs will go by like 10 and then the Eagles will get a field goal and then the Chiefs will get a field goal and they'll be at
01:01:17
Speaker
then the Chiefs go touchdown, then the Eagles get a touchdown. So they're kind of keeping goingnna keep them in my bay that way. And I think that that they finally keep them off just long enough. And I think this will be a score a high scoring game. I'm going to go 34-31. Kansas City wins this game. Let's go. for Now, uh, sir, I must leave you and be can give us both ah do before you go, before you go, give us your ex. If you, Hey, if you can do it quickly, give us your ex factor for either the Eagles or since you pick the Eagles, give us your ex factor for the Eagles. Some not a the well-known player, but who do you think is going to be an ex factor for them in this game?
01:01:57
Speaker
Yeah, I mentioned Zach Bond earlier as a linebacker. That would be good to help him. But what I want to do is give you something even better. Because I love you and I love Cantina. I love a lot of my sports so much. Let me give you some better content right here. Okay, good. Appreciate it. I'm going to take off my ah streaming partner in crime, my brother, my streaming brother, Kleba D, the combat G, my brother from another. I'm going to take from him and do a little clever caveat and tell you that what's really going to happen is the Chiefs who have conspired with the NFL for three years now in the whole Taylor Swift and NFL
01:02:44
Speaker
shenanigans, festivities, if you may. If you're a fan of this show, you know I live here in Nashville.
01:02:56
Speaker
Me and Tay Tay, we used to go together in my mind. And so we used to talk about this a lot. And she told me this was going to happen. And I know all the ins and outs. Please go check ball and buds. I did a four-part short. on Taylor Swift, the NFL, and how this has all conspired to be. For years, this has been conspired so that the Chiefs become a Patriots-like dynasty. And so Taylor Swift, who was about to go on her Heiress tour, would make Jay in more dollars. It worked for everybody involved. Travis Kelsey goes off. Chiefs win.
01:03:33
Speaker
Travis Kelce proposes to Taylor Swift. You're switching your pick? You're switching your pick? No, I'm not. This is my caveat. Oh, it's a caveat. I know what the NFL has in play. I know what the NFL has stored. What my heart tells you is the Eagles are going to win because of the football who knows football. This is your storyline in heart.
01:03:57
Speaker
this is this is my caveat because the NFL always has a plan all these sporting leagues always have a plan when you think there is not a conspiracy theory series but but conspiracy theories theory There's a conspiracy theory and it's out there. They're proposing at midfield. The Chiefs win. They three Pete, they go on to beat the Patriots dynasty. Kermit, I was about to call him Kermit the Fog, Patrick Mahomes, goes on to have a great career. You know, I'm still a rated fan of heart, my bad. And that's it.
01:04:38
Speaker
and they yeah not Wow. It's not what I think should happen or what I want to happen. That's not a conspiracy, though. It's just because they're that good and he's that good. Okay. When they win, when the Chiefs win, he proposes at midfield. You say, oh, shit. Omar, the professor, he told us all about this. The sports professor won. Okay, the sports professor. You're going to see. happened And it happened.
01:05:03
Speaker
Well, you're just, I mean, saying that the Chiefs are going to go on to win several Super Bowls is not a big one. I'm going with a score of 35-31, Chiefs. I'm out. All right. We'll see you, Professor. Appreciate you. Have fun over there. Say hi to all of them. Please, bro. Please. You might see me walking around on YouTube. Make sure you subscribe to Ballin' Buds. Ballin' Buds, baby. Go subscribe. Thanks, Professor. A sports professor.
01:05:31
Speaker
All right, let's go, man. All right, so he thinks they're going to win. This is his caveat, his cupboard caveat. They like to call it over there that the Chiefs end up winning and Travis Kelsey proposes. What do you think, Tanner? Do you like that? Hey, man, is it's in the making, man. I'm really winning the suit, baby, three feet.
01:05:51
Speaker
Yeah. and And I think I think she got some up her sleeve, man. I think wow na not none that no she she didn't got prettier. She looks like she got a little glow on her. She has a horror flow. Right. They're going to have to win. They're going to have to win for him to propose. I mean, he is winning about a Super Bowl man. They got a lot of distractions. Right.
01:06:16
Speaker
Winners win. Winners win. And when did they focus on what's important. Okay. So give give us your ah X factor for the Eagles. Because we know Saquon is going to try he' and easily. And Jalen, maybe AJ Brown is going to do well. But who's your X factor for the Eagles? That's going to put them over the top because you picked them to win. So, man, the guy, the guy I think for the Eagles is going to do the different thing here.
01:06:46
Speaker
The X Factor. What do you think? Come on. You want to think about it? Look up look up some names. his name is his name if they if they If they develop a strong running game, AJ Brown will be the guy.
01:07:15
Speaker
Well, we know he's the he's a star, though. No, no, no, no. Here's he here's what here's what I'm saying. co and And what I'm saying, AJ Brown, because they tried to blackball the kid. Everybody laughed at him. They talked about him. They made antics about him. They tried to throw his name in the mud. They were talking about him reading books on the same legs. So if he's the X factor, he probably could be the MVP.
01:07:38
Speaker
yeah one of the stars he got a shot um okay he got a strong shot but what i'm saying is man went wait okay but people throw you to the wolves man ok get a shot Okay, all right, all right, so you're gonna AJ Brown which I told you not to pick a star me still pick one all right know listen nobody matter I Told you I said don't pick a star It's okay. All right, so you didn't do your research. I understand. All right, so let's look at this ah
01:08:09
Speaker
use at work on day be in mep will you go say i told you but That's not an x-factor x-factor somebody who's not the star of the team
01:08:21
Speaker
Not a dud, just a guy who is a good player, but he's kind of the ex-founder. He does something extra. He makes a big play for them. Uh, you know, that kind of shifts the game and, you know, maybe even possibly wins the game or helps win the game because of their play. So I, I'm going to go with, uh, since I picked the chiefs, I'm going to go with Nick Bolton.
01:08:44
Speaker
He is the outside linebacker for the Chiefs. I think Nick Bolton is the key to this game. You remember last time he picked up Jalen Hurts fumble and ran it in for a touchdown in the last one. I think in this game he's got to set the middle as the linebacker and help on Saquon and keeps Saquon in control. He doesn't bust off those big yards, so he's going to have to have shirt tackling. I think he makes a big play, whether it's a big tackle, maybe he causes a fumble, maybe he intercepts Jalen or stops Jalen on a run. I think he's going to come up with a couple of big plays, Nick Bolton, and and he's going to be the X Factor for me, for the Chiefs. I don't think he's going to win MVP necessarily, but I think he's going to make a couple, maybe three or some four big plays.
01:09:30
Speaker
that help turn the momentum for the Chiefs. So I got Nick Bolton as my X Factor. Let us know what you guys think is who is your X Factor out there for the team you think is going to win. Give us your score out there. If you have a score, let us know what you can think the Super Bowl score is going to be. Cantina, I have a few little fun prop bets, you know, just some fun stuff that I was going to go through. And you can kind of go through these. Give me your thoughts on these.
01:09:55
Speaker
Some of them are fun. Some of them are just, you know, just prop bets. You know, you know how that goes. yeah So, um, the last eight of the last 12 national anthems have gone over 120 seconds. Okay. Reba McIntyre last year went 94 seconds.
01:10:23
Speaker
So, but eight out of 12 have gone over two minutes. So for Jon Batista, the prop bed is 120 and a half seconds for the national anthem for Jon Batista. ah What are your thoughts? What's your prop bed? Just having some fun with this. Are you over or under 120 and a half seconds for Jon Batista's rendition of the national anthem? So I have no objections when it comes to national anthem or any of that. I think to me, that's solemn.
01:10:50
Speaker
It's about respect. It's about our country. I mean, we're veterans. We serve our country. I mean, I don't care what they do. As long as they reverence the flag and reverence what we've sought out to do when we, you know,
01:11:06
Speaker
Put on the battlefield, man. At the end of the day, man, nope or a fla no to to whoever's doing whatever. Right. I mean, i mean you you can condense it. oh I mean, everybody's not a good singer. Everybody can't play music, so. Right, but Y'all, he's a he's a he's a sunger singer-songwriter. He does a lot of R and&B and jazz. have one One minute. One minute. One minute? That's like, oh you're taking the under on that.
01:11:33
Speaker
A minute, a minute, a minute, a minute and 15 seconds, that's it, cap, man. A minute and 15, so that's 95, so basically, well, that's 85 today, that's less than Reba last year. You capped at 115, man. Yeah, 120 and a half, 120 seconds, which is basically two minutes and five seconds, is what the prop bet is. So you're saying it's going to go under the 120 seconds. That's what I believe. Okay. I mean, I i understand what you're saying, the reverence and everything, and up but I think because John Batista is a singer-songwriter. He plays various instruments. He does jazz, R and&B. I think that he's going to extend this thing a little bit.
01:12:13
Speaker
That's just me. I think he's going to add some runs in there, you know, some long runs in there and stuff like that. As he sings it, he might add a longer intro, uh, a little bit and add something that thing. And I think I'm going to go with the over 120 and a half seconds. He goes over 120 and a half seconds. That's all we're taking the overnight one. All right. So let's go, uh, prop bets for the halftime song. So the halftime songs, uh, is it Lamar singing this year? Because.
01:12:42
Speaker
up okay so the halftime songs so listen to me so you can make a good prop bet here so you can help the people out there so so yeah so halftime songs range anywhere from nine to fifteen songs you know they don't play the whole song they just play you know so many seconds of it right they play but usually they play nine to fifteen of their songs right last year uh had ten songs ten songs last year who was last year i'm trying to remember last was special for last year usher oh Last year he had 10 songs. Normally it's anywhere from 9 to 15 songs during the halftime show. Lamar's song total prop bet is 10 and a half. So do you think he hits 10 or less or you think he hits 11 or more? What are you thinking?
01:13:31
Speaker
Tenorless easy tenorless you really tender less you don't think he yeah man i mean I'm gonna take the over on that. I think he hits 11 at least let now Okay, I think he's gonna go 11 Yeah
01:13:52
Speaker
yeah but you if you hit 11 songs, I think he's 11 songs but you equal this that man Okay, we'll see All right, let's know what you guys think on these prop beds. These are just fun prop beds. So so a couple more real quick, a couple more related to the game now. ah Well, let's do one more. Not related to the game, but Nick Siriani to cry during the national anthem. Yes or no. Is he going to cry again during and that last Super Bowl? He was crying at tears going down his cheek during the national anthem. Does he cry again or is he not? Which which way would you lean on that one? You think Nick Siriani cries again?
01:14:29
Speaker
So don I don't know how a man feels. I don't know what a man's emotions look like. I don't know what he's right i'm dealing with. I don't know his trials, tribulations. I mean, based on what you know, I'm not the coach. Come on. If you want to cry, let him cry. flow I'm just saying, it's just a prop bet. It's a prop bet. It's just a fun bet. Do you think he cries or you think he doesn't cry?
01:14:48
Speaker
Let him cry. He gonna cry again. He gonna cry again. For sure. I agree. he think I think he's gonna cry again. This is emotional time. I don't think he necessarily, you know, he's been through a lot and he's an emotional guy. Yeah. And so I think he will cry again. So yeah. All right. So the Tush Push, how many attempts over under four and a half Tush Pushes? Do you think the Eagles have four or less Tush Pushes in this game? Or do you think they have five or more Tush Pushes in this game?
01:15:15
Speaker
Less. Less. Or less. Okay. Less. So not that many push pushes. That's weird. Okay. I'm going to go over on this one. Because I like the defense. Well, I like the defense too, but I think the offense, if they come up with fourth and ones, they're going to, they're going to go for it every time. And I think they're going to have at least two or three of those. And they're probably going to have one at the goal line as well. So I'm thinking they're going to hit about five push pushes at least.
01:15:38
Speaker
right All right so and one more just for fun Mahomes over under for rushing attempts so you know he does he only rushes it three or four times a game on average ah but the over under for the Super Bowl is six and a half per attempt so does Mahomes have six or less rushing attempts this game or does he have seven or more what do you thoughts again Six or less. Six or less. You're going under. You're taking get all the unders here. I think he's going to have seven or more. I think he's going to have quite a few rushes just because I think they're going to need his legs to get some first downs. And, ah you know, when they're struggling, I think he he is. That's when he does it to try and get the the offense going and he'll go for those third and five. So we kind of rush and get the first down just to keep the drive going. So I'm going to go with over on that one. All right, Canteen. Let's talk about this. ah
01:16:30
Speaker
The NBA, any of the other thoughts on the Super Bowl you want to put out there?
NFL Predictions and Impactful Trades
01:16:34
Speaker
I'm good, bro. Good with look good with that. Good with that. OK, so you got the Eagles 30s, 27. I've got the Chiefs 34 to 31 Chiefs winning this game. ah So you want to talk to more NBA or are we good?
01:16:49
Speaker
I'm good, bro. We're good. I just wanted to mention one more thing. De'Aaron Fox to the Spurs is big with Wimpy. I think that'll help propel them into the playoffs. Maybe just the play-in. He needs that second star.
01:17:05
Speaker
that was that was the That was a major trade for you all. That was a huge trade for you all, man. And I think Darian Fox, he was more of a one. you know He was like the star with the Kings. But I think with the Spurs, he can be the two. He can be the number two guy. He can be, you know, Wimpy can be the number one guy. He can be number two. And then Chris Paul is in there mixed in as kind of the, you know, leading the offense. So I think this will be big for the Spurs. Maybe not this year, but in the years to come, I think they need one more guy in there.
01:17:34
Speaker
who can be a score who may be a spot-up shooter uh for them you can shoot threes you know maybe like an assassin type three-point shooter guy uh i think that's what they need now uh but i think bringing the iron fox he is a big time player. He can get his shot off when he needs to. So I think that'll be big for them when Wimby's struggling or when you pass it out and they're doubling Wimby and you give it to Aaron Fox and he gets score for you. So I think that'll be big. I think that'll propel
01:18:04
Speaker
the Spurs, my my Spurs, to a, maybe a number seven seed in the play-in. I think they get a seven or eight seed, you know, with that move, I think, alone. And we you're not on the Lakers. I mean, this move with Luca, does their number five right now, do they move up or the Lakers move down with this move? The Lakers, the Lakers move down with this move. Oh, really? They're going to start dropping, dropping games? man this that That was a piss-poor trade, man. For the Lakers, you're saying?
01:18:34
Speaker
It was, man. Okay. So now the Lakers are in fifth place. He said they moved down. Do they move into the playing now, according to you? Or do they just miss the playoffs altogether? I miss the playoffs altogether, man. Wow. Okay. So the Mavericks are in number eight seed. They're in the playing right now. Do they move up into the top six? Now the Mavericks. Oh, wow. don't move up. You really like this move for the Mavericks and you don't like it at all for the Lakers.
01:19:05
Speaker
Legos are dumb. Wow. Wow. Okay. So, I thought you would like this more because he is a great offensive player. I mean, he averaged 30 points in the playoffs last year. Only Michael Jordan and I think one other player has averaged that high in the playoffs on a playoff run. So, he can score. Get in shape, bro. Get in shape, brother. Get in shape. Okay. Get in shape. You heard Canteen. Get in shape, baby. Alright, man. You got any final thoughts for the people out there?
