Tonight crazy no football on a on a Thursday it’s been a long time for that but also can’t believe it’s already like January 4th dude and I mean how about instead of football you have six hours of the golf Tony I mean that’s that’s
That’s a lot of coverage W yes that is a ton of coverage my guy um so I am so jacked for that everybody get your last second uh bets in maybe a couple top 20s head-to-head matchups first tea times at 12:45 we’ll go over those uh in a second
One thing I did notice because we’re going to talk a little college basketball um a little later but um Sacred Heart 11 o’clock game at the pit Center 11: a.m. yeah Thor didn’t give you the call on that one uh no I don’t think Thor probably even working that
One dud he’s in Calo oh yeah uh I think he’s in Texas d right I don’t know if he went to cap he could have I don’t know doubt it but um that’s crazy who they playing do you know uh St Francis and they’re nine and a half Point favorites
I would love to take St Francis in that one nine and a half like give me plus nine and a half Francis they from Pennsylvania yes did you did you play them in rug no no no no but obviously they I just always remember from working the games that’s um I don’t
Know dude I would nine and a half yeah that’s rid there’s no way they’re it almost seems like it’s like a bad line honestly n for a team that’s six and nine they’re gonna cover nine and a half in a conference game ah oh this is their
Oh anyc opener oh really is there first conference game oh wow yeah they’ve had you know 15 non conference I guess that makes sense you know um you they still hav’t you like work the uh cameras like this yeah yeah I got I think I’m working
Like four or five games got me oh okay nice when’s the next one I have to look at the calendar I think it’s next week maybe maybe it’s next Thursday uhhuh yeah yeah yeah and with the cameras are you always like in the same spot or do
They like kind of move you around no so it depends sometimes um for basketball sometimes I work the jib camera so it’s like that camera you’ll see on the big boom pole that swoops down during games sometimes I TD so I’m in the control room sometimes or I direct in the
Control room sometimes I’ll do maybe Baseline camera so under the hoop which get kind of fun uh that’s your favorite um camera operator I would say the jib is is definitely my favorite that camera but you know under the Baseline is cool because you’re right in the action
People know like people fall on you sometimes wow yeah dude um we do have some comments early and often oh you freaking know it dude of course uh we have uh Kev in the house saying let’s go baby he wants the smoke let’s [ __ ] go
Nick he says # repc rep TV rep the sports for who the [ __ ] want that who the [ __ ] want what I don’t know it’s just and are these don’t test my ganga dude and then Josh B saying let’s go happy Thursday familyy thday # TCS
The sports where at rept TV I know Josh B has been loving the Tik Tok lives dude U my mother in the house say high Fellas on this Thursday morning um she’s probably at home and then hello to the chat right hello CH hello I’m sure some
Chat people are in here um oh yeah maybe I would I would think so um and I feel because I was gonna start with actually going over the um some of the no some of the pairings uh but if Josh B could because I tried to get him
On this yesterday I don’t know if we just I missed it when I asked him um but if he could give me maybe you know just a a a um a feel like for who he’s thinking to win at kaaloa maybe a top 20 pick a sleeper give me something because
I know Josh B um obviously is always on top of that stuff oh yeah I’m just rout too because I was thinking you know okay I’ll wait till four um to start watching the coverage but because the first T times are at 12:45 but I forgot um that
You have PGA Tour live ESPN plus starting at 12:45 um so I’m excited about that and I just wanted to yeah read off the pairings like I said I think we got some pretty good groups um just pulling this up right now but I believe it’s actually
All groups of three uh which is kind of nice um so the first pairing 1245 you got morawa shley Tom Kim uh that’s a lot of fire power um and a lot of golfers you know Square in their middle of their Prime I mean what’s Tom Kim 22 23 years
Old Mora a couple years older than that and then same thing with Xander he’s 21 um Tom Kim yeah yeah yeah I mean it’s it’s unbelievable like he really could have a bright future again what is shley is he 27 28 he is 20 30 dude it’s interesting with him he’s
Always there um but he just never seems to close I mean you think that we could potentially you know see him finally get over that hump year yeah yeah I guess so I mean I mean I suppose I mean that would be the time right I mean you’re 30
Years old you’ve been on tour for a while you’ve been there um like you said yeah let’s let’s give him over the hump why not dude um because the talents there you just have to always wonder you know is it a mental thing um and I was
Just gonna look here quickly I don’t remember is he um okay so 10 wins um and the last one coming at the um Scottish Genesis open in 2022 and he also won The Travelers which I forgot about um the year before I went in 2022
As well so three wins in 2022 I I don’t know I didn’t realize that one of them um you know was the team event at theurge so uh he’s also won this tournament before back in 2019 so he he’s done some winning he’s done some winning but the majors obviously um you
Know the the thing missing from the resume um he’s finished runner up at Augusta 10th at the PGA third at the US Open and second at the Open Championship but you know I mean it must just be so you know infuriating I mean he’s he
Obviously knows I mean he is one of the most talented goers worldwide um but just you know he’s been at this for a while and to not have the major championship I mean that’s got to be bothering him inside you think uh yeah it would be
Bothering me inside by the way um we do have a couple comments that we want to get to I believe Josh B commented a John ROM dude John ROM on no ah Josh B not on top of it um RAM on live so he won’t be here to defend
His title we’ll give him a pass though because always right on top of it um the chat I think you know takes away from his golf research he said the Tik Tok is addictive he said I think I think there is there is a correlation yeah um and then Kev d by
The way tell me to check my text messages um I don’t know if you know beanie sael huh yeah who the [ __ ] want what is a um I guess a song dude okay I guess I can play a little bit for you right now I mean do you think it’s anything crazy
Or no yeah Probably that’s where I’m gonna stop it okay yeah we I think we get it the day I’m gonna listen after the show though I bet it’s gonna be [ __ ] hyped yeah absolutely dude uh who wins the major first sander shley or Tom Kim oh wow dude I I’ll give
It shley yeah just for his dignity dude put is Du uh next T times you got Harmon Brian Harmon obviously the open champion last year Eric Cole and chameleo Vegas so that one um still a pretty solid underrated group if you think about it obviously you know like I just said
Harmon with that Open championship and he had is probably his best year on the PGA tour last year he’s been at a while and then Eric Cole they just announced last um yesterday uh Rookie of the Year oldest since like I think 07 35 years
Old so talk about a guy who’s put on put in the work um you know on the you know lesser tours and trend of work uh get that and he just missed out with Chris Kirk at the Honda Classic last year uh but I’m sure um that he’s going to have
A victory coming up soon uh the 109 pairings you got uh Seamus power uh Adam shank and Lee Hodes seus you know had a pretty good year last year as well and over the last couple years he’s been one of the more consistent golfers uh 121 Luke Liss Davis Riley Hideki Matsuyama
Uh Matsuyama um you know since winning the Masters I think has struggled a little bit has had some neck injuries and you know that’s got to be tough being a golfer you know um you could see with you know the swing uh velocity that you you go with on the PGA Tour all
These guys you know well over 100 um I’m I’m sure that’s got to bother so you hope that he’s healthy um because he’s always been one of the more consistent golfers um out on tour uh 133 Nick Hardy Russell keenley sep straa a Tony favorite um 145 Patrick Rogers Tom hogi
Benan 157 Denny McCarthy JT Boston McKenzie Hughes uh 209 sewu Kim cam Young Harris English uh Power Group at 221 Tommy Fleetwood Tony fow and Patrick Klay um fow is another guy um you know he finally got over the the win hump um you know a couple years ago I think it
Had been six years since his last PGA Tour wi picked up a couple wins obviously still looking for that first major um as well as uh Fleetwood and Klay uh but I do think feno is is the most talented golfer in that group um and it does seem like he’s due for a
Major victory there were a lot of um you know live Rumblings um and then um you know he he adamantly said that he’s staying on the PGA tour so it’s good to see that good to keep him on tour um moving along here 233 Max hom ludvig
Adberg and Ricky fer that’s a great group and and Riley had talked about how high he is on lug v adberg um you know great year last year and the fact too um that um you know Max hom um finished the fall strong started last year on fire
Winning all those events in California and then Ricky Fowler uh the Renaissance uh last year and coming so close to winning his first major of his career last year before fading down the stretch um do you think he ever gets one Tony no really just stretch yeah he just I think
That was the US Open to winam Clark right was right I think he went like five or six over in the last round like something like ridiculous like that um if you just look up you 2020 three US Open um but you know did a good job
Though just I mean because he was like almost to the point where he wouldn’t have oh put golf he wouldn’t have his um yeah just do that uh he wouldn’t have his PGA tourque card all right let’s see Ricky Fowler plus five uh in the final
Rounds yeah or no that was round three right or no it was round five yeah 75 75 I knew it was something like that crazy um yeah that’s tough yeah yeah because he I mean he was on fire up to 62 two in the first round Jesus you know but that
That was unfortunate so we’ll see what type of year he has uh we do have a tum here Nico etara and Matt Wallace 251 303 um you got Keegan Bradley Terrell Hatton and Matt Fat Matt Fitzpatrick um you know that’s a pretty good group two uh former major champions in uh Fitzpatrick
And Bradley uh ashk badia Nick Taylor Cam Davis 315 we know about Nick Taylor in the Canadian Open Tony oh yeah B that brought us excitement last year 327 Vincent Norman Chris Kirk Brenan Todd a Kirk you the Renaissance season last year it’ll be interesting to see if he
Can build on that and really become a Force this year on tour um and you think you know the opportunities there I know it’s just one guy but you know John Ram not being on tour that’s one less guy he has to worry about competing with a Tony
Personal favorite at 339 Lucas Glover uh paired with sunj M and Adam hadwin uh Glover another guy you know winning those uh FedEx Cup playoffs events see what type of season he has um after not being a contender for several years 351 Adam senson Kirk kyama Amano Grio
403 Eric Van ruin Jason day Corey Connors Jason day another guy um who really um you know had a strong year last year last couple after again you know fading away so what what does he have in store um you’d think a veteran core uh golfer at this type of getable
Course would do well uh 415 Taylor Moore Andrew putam Justin Rose rose the former US Open Champion um be interesting to see what he has in store I believe he won the AT&T Pebble Beach last year um so you know that’s a former world number one um and then a couple couple power
Groups to finish out here 427 um this is right when you’ll uh be turning on Golf Channel for coverage uh Sam Burns siah theala wiam Clark uh and then the last tea time group of the day um all big names here Jordan spe Scotty shefle and Victor havin Tony um wow after reading
Off every golfer in the field I mean there has to be some excitement out in your end right now oh my God yeah I mean the field is huge dude yeah um and it’s interesting because this is the biggest field ever because it used to be just
The winners then they made it uh top 50 um in the rankings last year to qualify for the BMW so I can’t wait um definitely gonna put this on on my mobile uh device uh to catch that first group Mor howz Xander Shofu Tom Kim
Uh and Josh B oops haha don’t know why I thought they matched it up now uh well that’s that’s not a bad point that should have been taken care of by now but there’s the extensions and other investors so who knows how long it’ll be
Till we have some clarity on that uh but he goes with feno and I love that I just locked in a feno top 20 um I would imagine he’s got to be easily in the top five maybe even top three in terms of of top 20s over the past five years every
Time you look Tony now is making a cut um and is putting together a respectable round uh last question for you Tony and obviously we’ll recap round one tomorrow um if you just had to say who’s gonna be leading at the end of day one and what what’s the score how many underpar
Um uh I mean I guess Windam Clark wiam Clark coming off The Big Year the first major of his career and then how many under are we talking I don’t know me four under four under little little conserv there uh I’m gonna say eight under my guy Scotty
Sheffler this is actually a par 73 you don’t see too many of those on the PGA tour but I’m gonna say he shoots a 65 uh to be at the top of the leaderboard eight under uh with a chance to put together one of the best Century tournaments in this tournament’s history
So looking forward to that first te times 1245 Tony um but let’s go now to the world of the National Hockey League here he comes mcav shoots top he scores it’s Captain with the overtime winner the MD the world right here kski stepping rton made the full split save are you
Kidding me turn side of the net between the legs and they score filthy P the silver trophy to the golden kns all right all right so we were talking about this pre-show uh me and you splitting the difference on the picks here both going two and two with
The totals and the winners of these games um you know being that the devils and Maple Leafs were victorious and then we had one under and one over hitting um the under in the Ducks game and the over in the dev Devil’s Capitals game um but
I think you know the way the Devils have played this year um you know very up and down but if you look at that road record that’s pretty good which is surprising I mean under or not under 500 at home but not as strong there um I think to
Decisively beat Washington who we keep saying you know isn’t as good as their record shows um you know right now 18 and 12 um and um you know I think it I think it was important to to get this win um and you started out strong with
Two in the first and really didn’t look back um you know obviously let up two in the second but you shut him out in the third add two more make it nice and comfortable um so I think this was a big win uh for the Devils yeah I think so
Dude uh niiko heser um you know is he’s their Captain he’s been just like in and out of just injuries I feel like for the past two years or to have him back um emphatically scoring his ninth and 10th goal of the season I know that’s you
Know obviously it’s low uh for for him but again he’s missed a lot of time so I think that addition to the team is going to be huge and it does free up you know other players to get looks um I mean Dawson Mercer being one of them big fan
Of Dawson Mercer think he’s a great Center he had two goals last night for his 11th and 12th of the year um taking advantage of you know the capitals you know dragging a little bit converting on power plays um and they look pretty good dude so I think you’re going to see a
Little bit maybe of a run um from the Devils right now just having he back in the uh in the lineup um but again I mean I see Nico Daws over there getting the start for the Devils I mean goal tending is is who who’s he I guess he’s their
Third String Goalie he’s been in the league for a while I don’t know if he’s been with the Devils for a while but I wonder if there’s an injury um um because you don’t you wouldn’t really normally carry three right oh no he’s only 23 years old yeah oh yeah he did
Last two season career Two and0 um Nico dos do you have any injury report from New Jersey he started 23 games wow it’s interesting two years ago which yeah two years ago it is that’s what I mean it is very interesting um injury report let’s see Devils where are
We uh you probably just had to go to the team page Oh I thought it was and uh kind of interesting too he sure had the two goals in the first and then um so you you scored six goals and each guy had two Mercer with two and uh
McLoud with two so some you know balanced scoring there uh nothing that’s odd yeah I guess they’re just trying what’s the schedule coming up so you’re okay you’re off today and then Friday Saturday so maybe just because they have the back toback coming up go to the active roster let’s just
Make sure they didn’t summon somebody to the AHL here oh so yeah what check the deal with Schmid he must have got sent down to the AHL I guess so see am Schmid Tony oh that’s weird doesn’t say but huh that’s kind of uh yeah that’s look on Twitter you know
Isn’t it annoying with like the hockey news like we’re not going to see it unless we search for it and like dig right you have to dig and and luckily for us like Rangers stuff comes up because of the people that we follow but no no national news like it’ll never be
On the front page ESPN unless it’s something about like Conor Bedard or something you know honestly I was telling Mike the other day or it might have been yesterday honestly like with that whole coverage of Bard it’s just like you would think the Blackhawks are one of the best teams in the league
Right you would have no idea yeah um but that is interesting um and it seems like maybe they want to give you know one of of their younger uh goalies here a shot um because they had really gotten inconsistent play out of both you know vanich and Schmid so um definitely
Something to monitor um and and we’ll see if if they can get back in the race here um the other game on the schedule uh we saw Toronto uh 2-1 over Anaheim so we thought it would be more decisive um but of course you know they’ll take the
Victory uh Jones uh 27 of 28 in net um and then you had um Taris with his 12th and then Austin Matthews has a Qui 30 uh this year so he’s on Pace to have you know a historic season potentially um that was a winner in overtime uh
Assisted by your guy Mitch Marner here we go baby um so it’s it’s interesting though because you seem very um now it I’m guessing this is more just like playoff wise versus like regular season but you see him very skeptical of of Toronto um despite being 19 and 10 uh
Yeah I think so um I think I am skeptical and by when I say I think I mean I am skeptical what what why you giveing me the finger dude see this negative energy and the Jersey wow wow thank you dude what up chat good to have you boys with us Michael looking
Outstanding in the paner Jersey love that Jersey dude yeah yeah it’s a great Jersey uh thank you for the coffee dude but um Toronto yeah I mean again they’re one of those teams that’s never made it over that hump dude literally since like what like 1967 they before they were a
Complete Powerhouse yeah I think I forget how many cups they have but they have the second most cups of any franchise that’s insane um I think they have like 12 or something wow um but uh uh what weall it yeah I just don’t think that it’s the same deal as last season
Dude you know they have all this Talent um and they just can’t really seem to bring it together so for that reason like you said yeah I mean like playoffs yeah they could be stinky good with that talent but they just time and time again they’ve proven that they lose these
Games um so I don’t know what it is um if it’s a chemistry there if it’s a coaching if it’s ownership I don’t know I mean like I said they have the talent like they have so much young Talent on that team um and they have some veteran
Talent as well they have a solid goenda again in the playoffs first yeah wow by the way um vanich is oh Schmid excuse me is down in UDA um where’s yica new is it is New York oh it’s in New York I was thinking but is
There a UDA too UDA oh oh no I thought you said Unica no no UT okay UTA okay same place um Yuna right next to Yuna um but it seems like uh they think Schmid was a lot of their woses in between the pipes but I don’t know I’m looking up
Some stats now V vanage and among 41 goal tenders it says to play at least 850 minutes this season VC vanich ranks dead last in five on five save percentage and high danger save percentage wow so think about that so I mean heyan he could he could end up
Easily being the backup here or on the low end of a time share I know and and be careful of niik Dos here I mean he’s a young goenda um I mean he had a chance of a Lifetime right now he’s definitely looking to prove himself and take this
Spot so be careful Michael does it feel good to be released from your devilish ways or no well it hasn’t been announced yet I mean it’s basically been announced I he’s wearing a Jersey right or no I mean it has to feel like a weight has been lifted Marty long long forone at
This point I me give me something Michael maybe I will maybe I likes to keep everybody guessing likes to keep everybody guessing ah this coffee Sayes good um and it’s um it’s kind of funny because you you imagine hot coffee Tony um you know here we are I’m I’m I’m you
Know having an nice coffee Americano by the way from Starbucks I was telling them had some gift cards I love it um so no need for Cumberland Farms with the gift cards obviously what else is in there um it’s just home milk and cinnamon you like whole milk in your
Coffee whole milk and cinnamon is the best combination for coffee that you could ever create uh Corey sone with us he’s been a big Instagram live follower give me the point how are you uh that’s one of his favorite prop bets um we always talk about that I mean doson with
The assists he’s over 30 this year with the assists we’ve talked about it Tony and and I know you’re very impressed with him as well oh my God yeah I mean I think he’s gotta be top five I think assist leader in the league right now so
It’s great what does he have like 29 assists no over 30 31 with with last night or the other night but oh no no maybe it is 30 because iing that off oh no oh no um Jericho he’s always uh on on top of that uh for sure it’s crazy too though with
With Toronto and I know we’ve talked about this but you look at you know the numbers with them um they have so much scoring I know last night wasn’t a great Showcase of oh by the way they did lose second round last year the uh previous
Few seasons they were in the first but they lost to Florida in the second um right trying to think who they beat in the first um who did they beat knock out Pittsburgh or something let’s see here no Pittsburgh didn’t make it remember Washington or something I think it was a
Normal team that normally makes the playoffs um let’s see the Islanders no of course I’m going to Wikipedia summ okay I got it they beat Tampa oh Tampa I do remember that D I thought it was thinking Tampa all the way on that one now you w’t come on
Tony but and then I they’re another team it’s like what are they going to do with goalie um samsonoff has gotten lit up 3.94 four goals against only 862 Martin Jones who was on Seattle uh last year right I think you’re right Seattle he
Was on seatt for a long time he’s had 10 10 starts he’s six and three uh 2.2 goals against in a save percentage of 930 so he’s done a good job wall has been solid as well 2.80 916 and he’s eight and five so um crazy too because a
Couple years ago I mean you you thought right I mean samsonov was one of the best Tenders in the league yeah it did seem like literally like like two two two years ago two seasons ago yeah yeah um so that’s again it’s interesting I guess you’re seeing the same thing too
With arguably the Devils here and and even a little bit of the Islanders I guess too but I I would be weary I guess a little bit about their goal I know Martin Jones I don’t trust him that much dude I mean you get his stat even last
Season 42 starts um on average 2.99 goals against and an 887 saf for that’s really low and you’ll get his previous years um you know with Philly 900 uh every year I guess three years before that with San Jose 896 every year so hasn’t really had consistently like a
Good 900 save percentage since like 2017 dude wow so and you can blame you know that on on multiple factors but I mean that’s at the end of the day those are his stats dude and um you can see here I mean sometimes you know the Toronto
Maple Leaves here aren’t going to give him much leeway with their goal scoring so that that goal is against an average could come back to BU them I would imagine samsu though will be their tender he’s got to have most of their starts this season right um you know
It’s it’s actually almost split down the middle I think uh you know he has Jones is 10 and I think it’s samsonov 15 yeah 16 for oh no 15 for sansen 15 for wall and 10 for Jones um so I think they’re just as we used to say which which we don’t really
Say too much anymore I think with Jones you know they’re trying to catch lightning in a bottle yeah um maybe he just needs to change his scenery ah Jesus dude yeah backto back games with same percentages in the sevs yeah dude I mean look at this what do we got uh
10 21 goals in his last four starts yeah that’s that’s tough so maybe AHL for a time or two just to kind of that’s so crazy things before that against Nashville he had a shut out yeah it’s just crazy how hockey Works um you know and I was speaking to their their
Dynamic offense here I mean you have um five guys uh that have at least uh 29 Points you know Morgan Riley Taris Marner Matthews and neander um and a lot of high assist guys too um you know you have what four of them have at least 20 assists neander
With 32 leads the team um so you know I I I think they could be dangerous but it’s just all about um you know showing up that goal tending position and then what they’re going to look like in the playoffs but I mean obviously you’d have
To think I mean anytime you know you have Austin Matthews I mean you’re going to have a chance right I mean yeah I guess so I mean it’s just so interesting because they I don’t know they have Austin Matthews by the way last night I think had 13 shots on goal like they
Just feed such an animal um CRA um CH chat I mean I don’t know man you’ll at some of these losses and they I guess I mean it just seems like they’re kind of streaky know a little bit two wins three losses a win
Two losses a win a loss a win a loss two wins a loss two wins two losses four wins there we go but then a loss a win four losses three wins two Lo like it’s just they’re not they’re not stringing along these these great I guess like
Runs here and look at these all these overtime games too like Toronto should not be going in overtime they shouldn’t be a you know a team that struggles to put teams away right um Columbus 65 lost in overtime they lost to the Islanders in overtime Bruins overtime Chicago over I mean that’s not
Good dude yeah yeah you know um but uh yeah so it’ll be interesting to see you know what happens um and I was actually gonna gonna ask because I know it’s been a while I know we had some problems with some drops and bites do we still have
The uh NHL Tonight music we do let’s go I I think good idea there’s a ton of games today Cory texted me earlier this morning so excited you know get the get the prop bets in and all that uh NHL frenzy time so this is my thought here
Tony wow we’re going to pick every game we can be the same side if we want how about this every game in every total Okay so we’re getting that crazy let’s [ __ ] go baby um and and we’ll have you see it let’s go all right here we go
Go first you go second uh sounds about right so let’s go it’s Thursday baby feeling pretty good we’re starting early and off in here 7 o’ on ESPN you have the Bruins hosting the Pittsburgh Penguins uh at TD Garden in Boston Boston minus 145 over under at five and
A half here um looking at this game I I just got to go with the Bruins it’s so tough uh you know the Bruins have had a great home record 11-2 so give me the Bruins here um musling their way past Pittsburgh um I would say five to two so Bruins in
The over Dude Bruins in the over um you know it’s tough because I I was thinking the exact same thing but I’ll I’ll mix it up a little bit just for the sake of the picks here um I will agree with you on the Bruins so that’ll end up chalking
Um as my computer deletes what I said real quick hopefully that can I can get that back classic okay we’re good we’re good uh but yeah I will go with you on the Bruins but I’m gonna go the under um I think they have a sound defensive game
Here uh and I think they win this one we’ll call call it uh 41 so sliding in there with the under the Penguins uh who have heated up a little bit uh reverting back to form oh they’re cooling off buddy you know who’s not cooling off the
Buffalo Sabers as they are in montra the Bell Center playing the Canadians here Buffalo minus 135 on the road here over us at 6 and a half shout out to I believe it was Heather from Buffalo ah there matter um the wings are riddled in the streets dude and they’re
Going be in the streets of Canada as the Sabers here uh beat the Canadians I would say give me the Sabers and the over as well uh Sabers I don’t know 61 wow decisive T Thompson um I you know I’ve always been big on the Sabers but
Not this year it’s like a reversal I I’ve always been low on the Canadian Tony um so I’m gonna say the Canadians uh under Suzuki uh the old hatrick all the scoring three nothing all unassisted first time we’ve seen that in quite some time absolutely next game here it’s John
Torella here in Philly the Wells Fargo Center a beautiful Stadium actually Philly minus 195 year at home hosting your Columbus Blue Jackets uh couple Sho alumni there obviously know about Johnny goodro ah I mean I guess give me the Blue Jackets in the road here I think
The Flyers have lost a couple um bad games recently and I just the boot jackets Justin Danforth I know you’re betting with your heart second heart alumni but Danforth two goals and an assist Johnny goodro says thank you very much Bo Jackets win this game 32 it’s
Irresponsible of me um but I I wanted to take the Blue Jackets but just you know because it’s like okay you’re giving me the Flyers and I can get heads up with you gain an extra point they are the better team uh just a little nervous because like you said they dropped a
Couple recently and the Blue Jackets randomly like we talked about scored nine goals out of nowhere randomly um but I’m going to say torz has the guys locked in uh Kona cry uh has two goals and assist and I am going to say the Flyers are are going to win this one
It’s going to be high scoring uh but they win 54 so flyers and the over and you had you said the jackets in the under right that’s correct dude and we’ll work at that pronunciation over there that’s a tough one honestly I don’t I’ve heard it a few times and I
Still don’t get it it’s like um I I don’t even want I can’t I can’t even it’s oh God tough day doesn’t matter moving on to the final 7 o’clock game tonight baby it is your New York Rangers let’s go in the garden tonight Chicago’s rolling in they suck Bard’s
First time in the garden he’s going to be all struck dude and Michael you know we have his support bang with the Jersey our tmy panarin um let’s name with two goals and an assist here mik a benad with two goals and an assist here as well Michael’s hyped I’m hyped the
Rangers are winning this game 42 so give me the Rangers in the under I guess the under wow and I will go rangers and the over uh so we are going to go um you know I think Bard gets his uh we’ll say a goal and an assist uh but your New
York Rangers five goals against a weak Chicago team 52 so the Rangers and the over let’s [ __ ] go rangers Josh says go all right next game here we’re moving now to 8:00 baby so a little hour later but that’s okay because we’re over in St Louis the Enterprise Center Rent A Car
The Vancouver conuts Michael’s team rolling into St Louis here uh the blues I know you Vancouver minus 135 on the road you think you know what the blues could sneak one past um but I don’t know man man I would say the booking Bing you know what give me the
Booking do conu okay give me the conu in the over I think high scoring I think K win this one 5-4 in overtime let’s go JT Miller with the overtime goal let’s go Kevin ha Rangers dude a lot of former Rangers in this game dude lot lot former Rangers
But I think the Canucks are going to fade back in the pack second half of this season the blues uh with the upset at the home here I’m going to say under and I’m going to say the Blues win 4 to2 absolutely in the under the Blues win
Four to2 dude this next game here could be Brian’s favorite game of the night you know why because the Nashville Predators hosting the Calgary Flames I’m so interested to see who Brian takes um over there at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville Tennessee I always say give me
The flames in the road I don’t give a [ __ ] uh PR up a surprisingly good record 21 16 and one a decent at home record as well Nashville is favored at minus 125 but I think the Flames ignite tonight um and they push one past the PRS I say Flames win this
One 3-2 in regulation so give me the flames in the under all right um ah I know dude but I I can’t worry about that I’m going to just I don’t like the the Predator so I’m going to just just fade him and take the flames over though I think Calgary I
Mean come on let’s go time to score some goals tuo where the hell are you uh and I going to say the Flames uh 54 in overtime in Nashville let’s go baby I think this next game we’re going to be talking at 8 o’clock is Brian’s second favorite game of the night
Because it’s the Dallas Stars hosting the Colorado Avalanche baby we know how Brian feels about the Stars the American Airline say more of a Jeff blue guy all right so I would say give me the Stars here for me I know Brian probably pick the Avalanche but the Avalanche a little
Bit of the schneide we talked about it earlier this week and obviously Dallas a lot of young Talent L of Veteran Talent Odin Jer between the pipes give me the stars who are favored slightly minus 125 at home here Stars shut out the ABS they beat them two
Nothing all right uh I’m goingon to take the ABS I’m take the over you look at Colorado a lot of high-scoring games uh this season and the Stars okay Dallas Stars they’re winning the Cup this year yeah right Nathan McKinnon Tony uh with two goals two assist Avalanche 7 for a
Night Under the Stars he’s been on fire dude all right let’s go moving along here still in the 8:00 hour after our final 8:00 game here we’re going to be in Minnesota the lightning are going to try and defeat the wild dude um in their own home Tampa Bay minus1 25 135 excuse
Me over at 6 and a half we know the Islanders Islanders we know the wild can score we know the lightning obviously have some of the best players in the league here Nikita cucher off leading the the league I believe in points right now with
63 so give me the lightning I think the lightning easily easily beat the wild I think it could be like a 3-1 maybe 4-1 gam so give me the lightning and the under Nikita CER off two goals and assist Stam Coast with two assists and
Uh they roll their way to a victory it’s getting Wild tonight in Minnesota give me the wild uh lightning don’t have the same juice that they coov is great but it’s not about one player Michael it’s a team sport multiple lines and Minnesota will bring the toughness tonight 106 and two
At home uh and they’re going to win this one I’m gonna say Erikson Tony uh with a hatrick only scoring of the game so the wild 3 nothing wow and the proverbial under the proverbial under next up we’re going from the cool Canadian breezes in Minnesota to the hot sun in Tempe
Arizona as the coyotes host the Islanders here this could be a dumpster fire of a game I don’t even know what’s going on here but give me the Islanders I say I think I think the Islanders could squeeze out a win making it look like that they’re actually a good
Competitive team here against a lowly Arizona Coyote team um doson a goal three assists maybe barzal with two goals give him you know some confidence here may Matt Martin with a fight and a goal let’s [ __ ] go I making the trip Sydney in Arizona probably looking really good I’m sure a
Bikini photo before the game on Instagram check it out um Boomer excited about that as well probably so give me the coyotes winning this one 32 sorry the the Islanders Islanders 32 Islanders in the under Brian stop distracting all right give me the coyotes and the over
The Isles listen um you know obviously I I hope that they do well this year it always makes it fun with the Rangers but a game like this on the road a place in Arizona talking about a bad team whatever Arizona one of the more underrated teams in the league 12 and
Six nice and tidy at home here uh so very low total I’m going to say go over it’s a trap uh and I’m going to say the coyotes Keller uh two goals two assists this 43 coyotes over the Islanders all right all right load them up load them up next
Up we’re in Vegas baby uh gold Knights hosting the FAA Panthers very interesting game FAA favored it on the road here minus 115 Fara having I think a sneaky good season actually this year so far not talked about a lot Sam Reinhardt I believe up there in point
Leaders in goal scoring leaders and assist leaders as well um he’s spreading the wealth very nicely and the gold kns on a little bit of a schneid CT certainly dropping that game in Seattle during the winter classic is tough dude give me Florida here on the road um to
Beat the golden knights only their going to be only their fourth regulation loss for Vegas so give me Florida winning this being physical maybe some fights we’ll see I say they win four to two so give me the Panthers and the under the under the under the um I just
Got this ridiculous text I have to talk to you about later oh my um but I’m going to take the golden knights and the over the over Tony I think a little overreaction to that Winter Classic loss to the cracking Tony um Vegas is 133 and
Two at home for a reason uh so give me the golden knights give me a lot of scoring Jonathan maresal with two goals and I’m gonna say give eel a goal as well uh and we are GNA say the knights uh Victorious here 52 in Vegas wow dude
All right beautiful beautiful work there br and next up here uh we’re going to be excuse me in Seattle speaking of which actually they’re going to be hosting the Ottawa Senators here Seattle this is a tough game they’re minus 130 at home obviously not a great team but we know
About the woses that Seattle um excuse me that Ottawa has to deal with this season but I’m gonna take the tight dog here in Ottawa you know I was very hot in Ottawa at the beginning of the season I thought I had some higher hopes for them and they’ve certainly disappointed
Uh but give me the Senators winning this game two nothing Senators over sorry senator under all right I’m going to go Kraken in the under here uh coming off that big win against Vegas New Year’s Day um so I’m gonna say dun who only has six goals this year
Uh will have a goal in two assists 31 Kraken Victorious at home wow dude right next up I know where Brian’s going with this game um so we’ll see but we have the Kings here in the crypto.com Arena hosting the Red Wings laus 195 right now um the Red Wings
Though totally the Red Wings oh the kings are spoty at home crypto Arena we know about that bang dude Michael could never and also the Kings I feel have been on a little bit of a schneide kind of disappointing and I know I’m hot on
The Kings but I love the Red Wings as well Dylan Lin’s healthy Patrick Kane has shown some signs of something and of course Alex De Brat 38 points on this season so far so give me the Red Wings beating the kings in a high scoring game
65 in over time Red Wings and the over I think there’s a reason uh for that mediocre uh home record uh and I don’t know if it’s just not a strong showing at crypto.com uh but give me the Red Wings and I’ll take the over just uh
Under just to be different here uh but we’re going to say the Red Wings are going to win this one patty Kane uh two goals here yeah and the Red Wings on the road uh 3-1 over the Kings let’s go baby final game of the night 10:30 Brian’s
Probably third favorite game of the night because it’s his San Jose Sharks hosting the Winnipeg Jets and by God I don’t have to tell you what the San Jose Sharks are like give me the Jets here they’re minus 245 um on the road heavy Road favorites over at six and a half
Give me the Jets winning 5-2 jets in the over let’s [ __ ] go Brian let’s go sharks in the under Tony what happens when it rains nine days in a row clear skies the next day that’s where we with the sharks they’re not going to lose 10 in a row they win
This one hurdle two goals two assists 42 the sharks there we have it dude that is your NHL frenzy I mean was that not a ton of fun Tony um that was a ton of fun dude like that was crazy honestly we do more friends hockey friends like that D
When when the big suat when there’s that many games by like how how do you not you know um other than of course you know the Rangers bouncing back we know it tonight um any anything that like pops out to you that you’re just like uber confident in uh in terms of a
Winner tonight oh wow super confident in I want to say um super confident I mean that’s tough dude they’re not honestly not a lot of games I would be confident other than the Rangers tonight I guess oh man I mean the Bruins maybe the Bruins okay if not
Buffalo on the road Buffalo that’s go buffalo on the road buffalo on the road um I haven’t even checked the fa Face Off Face Off off face off fet Fay um because if monm bu is starting for the M bu um Jake Allen looks like and Devon Levy for the has struggled I
Don’t like Levy I like um you want to change your pick Pekka Ulin whatever his name is ukin yes no saber saers on the road Sabers on the road block of the night right there um yeah I have to say uh you know it’s so tough because you know when there’s
So many games like this you know how do you really pick one apart and of course like we said uh definitely love the Rangers um at home of course uh but I I think honestly looking at this the coyotes I I think they’re great at home
Um the Isles a 500 team at road we know what happens if they get into overtime um you know I just I don’t see it working out well and I and I think it could be potentially um you know an Overlook spot for the oh we’re going to Arizona we’re
Playing in some college Arena um and not taking the opponent seriously when when they’ve done a great job winning 12 out of 18 games at home you know a lot that’s a real odd um now now in regards Tony to the Rangers um you know obviously coming off a tough loss um
What are you looking to see early on that will give you that you know confidence that tonight uh is going to be different I know different opponent but yet you know winning is important uh oh yeah winning is definitely important um what would give me some confidence in
The Rangers tonight is that if their third and fourth lines come out and they play a significant role in uh in the outcome of this game which obviously should be a w I want to see a goal from Jimmy vzy that’s what I really want to
See honestly I think he is he’s a good hockey player um but unfortunately just doesn’t he’s just one of those hockey players that does things well yeah but just never finds his way in the score sheet you know it’s it’s very rare which is unfortunate because like I said he’s a
Good hockey player um maybe even um some line change like combination change UPS from Lavette okay uh just to mix up just to mix up players just to try and spread the wealth a little bit more spread the talent around um you know throw someone else in the first line instead of Blake
Wheeler throw Blake wheeler down on the third line um bring someone else up or something like that dude but we’ll see I just I I I really want to see that’ll give me more confidence in the Rangers as a whole and of course you know we
Know their last loss um that was a blowout I mean it was just it was the Rangers was consistently shooting themselves in the foot all game the stupid mistakes the miscommunications the Mis cues um the missed opportunity ities on offense you know they just could not
Find the back of the net and it just seemed like every mistake they made they would try so hard to make up for it and they make another mistake and just snowball snowball exactly you’re compounding these mistakes and that’s the real mistake dude because mistakes are going to
Happen in sports especially in hockey you gotta shake it off you gotta figure it out dude yeah so um let’s [ __ ] go let’s come in here Ironclad um solid physical and let’s [ __ ] up the Blackhawks there’s no reason why they should be in this game with us
And let’s start fast um you know I think that’s been a problem recently having to come from behind um and also I think it’s important here Jonathan Quick obviously overall has been great this year but they’ve lost his last two starts um and I think you know it’s
Important for him to to you know shut out the Blackhawks in the first period you know get two goals from the offense um and I really think um that’ll lead to a decisive Victory um and I’m sure you know the crowd is always electric at the
Garden but I think even to the next level Tony uh just for the fact that it’s Bard’s Garden debut right it is yeah um so obviously that’s big uh can’t wait to watch that so much good stuff to watch tonight it’s like you really actually don’t need football it’s almost
Better that there’s no football because take away from the focus on on the greatness of Thursday night Carissa Thompson on the [ __ ] Ryan Fitzpatrick I mind face dude you’re sick of it I am sick of it dude they suck she’s not even a real journalist uh yeah that that whole thing was was
Absolutely oh yeah I make stuff up oh okay yeah isn’t that funny no it’s so funny dude isn’t that hilarious I got paid millions of dollars to not report real things um anyway anyway Tony anyway anyway anyway um let’s we haven’t gone here in a while let’s go to the world of
Major League Baseball it’s 700 Albert poos what a play stop it Y and Alo cracks one the with the ball game out of sight and it works at 100 mph 14 strikeout Dr deep to left field there it goes see you all right all right uh so you know
There obviously has been um a lot of crickets uh regarding uh Major League Baseball recently not too much action uh you know tons of big names uh still available um one thing that I just saw and I didn’t see this till right now um so Chris S whose deal um you know runs
Through this year and I think the Red Soxs are paying a majority of his salary this year uh just signed a two-year extension with the Braves so two years 38 million um and his present day guarantee bumps up 16 million and 24 22 million 25 and the Braves have a buyout
Free uh free $18 million Club option so they don’t have to buy out in 2026 if they don’t want to um but I mean jumping the I mean I know it’s not like a huge salary here but jumping the gun with the extension I mean I know they gave up a
Guy that they felt was very valuable in Von Grom um but before he even throws a pitch for them they go extension and he’s had an extensive of injury history over the last five years I mean do you question that a little bit or you can you not because it’s Atlanta I don’t
Know I mean I I think Atlanta has made yeah a couple questionable calls this off season yeah um I don’t know B but they hit so often though you know look at Shawn Murphy last year dude like you know like that was kind of questionable right we questioned it and he killed
Killed it dude so I mean I don’t know I like part of me like that’s like not a good move but then again like part of me’s like oh it’s the Braves it’s probably going to work out for them yeah I I can’t believe that though like it’s
I don’t know it just it seemed like s’s a guy that like I mean it’s almost hard to even see him having one year where he pitches I 150 160 Innings and is that Chris Sail uh that we knew you know striking out double digit batters uh left and right
Um and if he does become that guy I mean unfortunately not to like kind of rub it in Tony but that becomes your problem it was once the Yankees problem you know being on the Red Sox and now um you know the Mets have to face him a good deal
Big problem yeah um so interesting to see uh you know how that works out um you know there’s been a lot of discussion about Snell and Montgomery um and me and Corey were talking about this earlier um and you know I I think there’s some thought you
Know Blake Snell wants to stay on the west coast and and the Giants are rumored to be involved there um we I I kind of could see that happening I know like you know there’s nothing definitive that’s come out about that but just the fact too I mean we talk about all the
Time how the Giants um you know have all this money that they want to spend um and they haven’t been had to get anybody to take it um I mean I I could just see them just go you know breaking the bank here you know like like a nine 10 year
Deal well over 300 maybe approaching 350 I mean what what do you think about that idea for the for the San Francisco Giants um I I like it I mean they got to shake things up wouldn’t you say like I say now this is the time where like they
Kind of have to be bold no yeah I kind of think we need to be bold so let’s go haven’t heard that one in a while I know dude I was thinking about it this morning we haven’t really had like those drops those catchphrases like yeah yeah
Orang is losing his touch no you know what it is I feel like those come out more in baseball season for whatever reason wouldn’t you say oh yeah we’re all jacked up it’s the Seesaw of emotions every day goodness the Seesaw it is a little ridiculous uh I hated the
Seesaw when I was a kid I never really um and also I’m just thinking Giants wise um like I said I’m sure they want some top talent Bellinger would make sense but I don’t know if you know they are comfortable giving him what he’s looking for and then if he wants to hit
In that ballpark but I I think they need another bat two bats even Who the hell’s in their Outfield conto freaking uh that’s actually a good question um do they have Longoria still no no Longoria was on um Arizona last year I think he still he might even still be under contract Francisco
Giants roster the active roster dude pitchers no outfielders let’s go Michael conforto Mitch Haner from seatt didn’t do anything yeah no nothing really know they still had y did they get him back oh I guess Mikey sh or did he never leave I thought they I thought he had
Left left too maybe we were wrong I thought he like was about to retire yeah um he’s from um oh he’s from Mass right Granda obviously y um I guess I I did see I remember watching like some highlights of Jung Ho Lee oh I forgot about that um he he’s
Proba he’s he’s pretty solid power guy more of an average defense Aver yeah exactly defensive Outfield which is still fine um these other guys names I don’t really recognize Jack Pier they have listed a DH oh dude yeah I mean you you thyro Estrada had a good year last year but
You need some more punch in this lineup yeah certainly dude um so it’ll be interesting to see if they get involved there um are you also kind of surprising again you know it might just be because of the the big demands um that we haven’t really heard much on the Josh
Hater front um yeah I think so do you think it is that he’s de like they’re demanding a lot or do you think maybe it’s more that that um that they don’t want to get rid of him um wait no what do you mean is he a free agent no he is
A yeah yeah he was on San Diego last year yeah yeah I thought I thought oh yeah he’s a free agent they signed him no no he’s a free agent what the hell is this then yeah why hasn’t he got any I’m thinking because I mean you look at the
Numbers and oh by the way yky has been with the Giants I think there were just rumors he wasn’t get traded but he’s been with the Giants his whole career um he had the big year last year was brutal the year before yeah I remember that um
So maybe that’s why teams are hesitating um and I’m guessing he wants to break the record for dollars um you know for a reliever oh my gosh he wants to break the record dude so do I um that’s crazy I thought I thought the padr signed him
To a contract no oh wow dude what you’re thinking Mets now super Bullpen I mean like what the hell why not yeah but Sterns Sterns had him in in Milwaukee too probably is like oh I had good value with him then I’m not going to overpay
For him now you know that stuff goes through his mind yeah but you should overpay for him because you know like you know what you’re getting with him yeah like come on do you know you have a relationship why not I mean we we talked about this the
Other day but I mean it just really seems like they’re not gonna pull the they’re not gonna spend big money this off you’re not gonna pull the trigger on anything it’s [ __ ] stupid dude um and um you know maybe maybe they explore the trade market you know Dylan CE uh is out
There in Chicago the Yankees have been rumored to be you know somewhat interested in him but I just think what that’s going to take from a prospect perspective and not that I wouldn’t expect him a bounce back but he had an underwhelming year last year so to give
Up a couple top guys I mean I I couldn’t justify that and I’m sure you wouldn’t want to give up like AA and Gilbert for him right no not at all but I I do think he’s gonna be good though I really do what do you think his like stat Line’s
Gonna be I think you know last year he was in the fours I think he’s back to low threes like 3-2 and he’s gonna strike out at least 250 batters I mean it’s pretty pretty solid yeah yeah I mean this stuff he has is crazy um you you also have the Chapman’s
Out there Matt and eraldis um maybe the Mets get involved there with Matt do I wanna I don’t know I mean I think he’s not I think he’s a two threeyear type of contract I know and the defense is great um because right now I mean who’s is
Batty the starting third baseman uh yeah I think so he got didn’t he get injured he might have well 40 17 so slugging for 4 24 Ops under eight 30 years old um 4.4 War because of that defense though yeah but you’re you’re sour it sounds like a little bit 30 years old
Too I mean like you said but just to get something to be you know excited about I guess it would be nice to have someone there to back up batty because batty was a little shoty last season yeah and um Whatchamacallit he didn’t it batty didn’t get hurt it was [ __ ] Vientos
Vientos right okay right he’s the one who got hurt Maybe I’m Wrong um no no I’m almost positive he did get hurt um but his numbers weren’t good right no no he was bad it was Mauricio that tore the ACL Jo is get a chance
Right and of course you know who who the uh Joey Wendell dude oh yeah Joey wend ad dude yeah dude the barf man what the hell website is this what am I looking at uh daily news they want your dollar yeah $ n for the year thanks
Dude and then you know Jordan Montgomery is still out there as well Josh Bast started the bite collection how do you feel about that dude that’s hilarious that is hilarious um but b i think Monte I know you were a little concerned but I think if it wasn’t too crazy I feel like
You’d be in favor now maybe a three-year deal oh wow so you’re tight I mean Stern just rubbing off on you he anything in New York though come on I guess he was okay with the Yankees but still he has yeah I’ve seen him have a lot of blowups
Yeah I I always thought honestly he was pretty consistent to be honest you know but I could see how it’s like you know before last year or even you know whatever go back two years you thought of him as like a four or five and now
He’s looking for two or three I guess it’s really tough for us to be picky anyway so sure bring him in sure dude hate to see you so disgruntled though it’s just like so annoying but but will you not be at least I I this is just
Like a no [ __ ] type of question but I’m gonna ask anyway let’s say they don’t do anything rest of the off season but I mean I think compared to how it always is you’re going to have the same excitement level as we get close to the
Start of the Season no yes no no no I will be and it and it’s just GNA be a very much of a heavy Reliance on guys bouncing back that are already on the team or guys improving from from last year offense has to carry basically or
Offense will have to carry because your pitcher are going to give up probably a lot of runs and then sang all those Innings last year I’m sure you know there’s some concern there too have someone to back him up seems like you be relying on him a lot too this season so
Yeah yeah and then uh I mean sure you know let’s drive him in the ground have him have another Tommy John why not why does he just have it now have it now start getting injured now and then you can trade him off to the Rangers and ruin his career
Dude uh if they don’t make any moves right same roster they have now do the Mets make the playoffs this year no wow I mean come on man how could they they don’t they don’t and you think they have the offense to get there but not the pitching that’s the problem they’re
Pitching in their Bullpen the bullpen yeah brutal dude I don’t even even if anything like I know everyone’s like oh Diaz be back Diaz be back you’re nervous I’m nervous about Diaz dude he had a [ __ ] career year two seasons ago and then it had a career year the other way
A couple seasons ago yeah that’s what I mean like the inconsistency and then the injury and then now you’re out for an elongated period of time and I like oh you think they get the the music back up for him or no yeah definitely what do you remember what that’s
Called I know the trumpets big discover Timmy trumpets oh my god um that seems like five years ago it does seem so long ago dude but I don’t know there’s definitely a lot of question marks and I’m just like the the words of Mendoza I
Like the guys we have it’s just like ah yeah yeah it seems like that’s what is that D and I’m even a little nervous on my end uh you know the Yankees haven’t sent any free agents and you know you don’t hear that they’re relatively close
And I’m sure you know Ryan Cashman being shrewd um but I would really like to add one more starter what are the chances that both the Mets and the Yankees are like doubling down on their like Farm talent and they’re expecting big things to bring up guys like yeah I mean that’s
Definitely true I just from the pitching end Thorp was your top guy yeah um you know Clark Schmidt you’re relying on him to improve from last year to be your four starter you have to use like will Warden or or Clayton beater um you know your five star I you need a veteran
Starter nobody crazy um but just at least somebody and obviously it would be nice to get Montgomery or Snell or or trade for Dylan CE but um and we see it every year too there’s so many injuries to starting pitchers um you can’t go in with five starters six starters you need
Eight nine starters yeah you know obviously some of them the bullpen some of them the minor so um but would you say I mean I know it’s always been very lackluster last couple years in terms of consistent news signings but would you say this is the deadest it’s ever been
Or the Machado year was probably close right with Harper when they signed in spring training yeah I guess so but still this is like crickets complete crickets and it’s not even like there’s I mean I guess there are big names still out there but it’s not like a Bryce
Harper waiting for him you know like yeah yeah um I saw some pictures they were showing Stanton I guess he’s he’s lost a decent amount of weight um working on the conditioning the agility um any any thought there on a on a bounceback or no no like worse than last
Year you’re saying just as bad probably wow I’m sure he’ll be cranking some home runs but I mean it’s he can’t he can’t hit 220 I don’t think so I don’t know man I just I I just have this this feeling that like you said it’s not over yet
Tony you know what I mean it might be over in a couple years but I don’t know if it’s just over just yet I know it’s been a long run and the numbers what he hit 170 whatever um I didn’t see anything about that Sparks Jonathan Papelbon million-dollar bet
Taunt uh Josh B by the way says he’s definitely itching for some Yankees hot stove news yeah aren’t we all dude um so I I think we’re gonna we’re gonna get something soon uh on the under of total home runs for Jean Carl Stanton when 2024 season hits
Oh because he’s doing that Dave poroy bed what is the under did it say uh no oh his home run prop has not been released by any sports book yet as we are still January Le the majors in home runs wow that actually might be a couple shekles honestly the 18th best odds
Among all hitters um wow it’s pretty crazy dude but yeah that was crazy por no’s bet winning a million dollars in Michigan you believe it Michael por no do you think he actually threw down the mlion yeah yeah I think so dude I think so just wanted to ask Michael did you see
Him um it was some college bowl game where he’s in this suite and some guy like comes up to him with a pizza and almost like ambushes him to review his pizza and it’s obvious I don’t know if it’s like a the guy was dress like a
Chef I don’t know he’s a chef for the stadium but he’s literally like Dave I I’ve watched like all your pizza of reviews like like I’m not a pizza chef by any means I’m just a chef but I made this pizza specifically for you and dude
Like as if it was a joke he opens the pizza box and it’s like everything that Dave Porto hates about pizza it’s like thick fluffy crust and there’s like chicken and bacon and all different of he’s like he’s like I don’t think you’ve watched any of my stuff like because
This is like I don’t like I just do cheese like I don’t took one bite and he goes [ __ ] 4.2 he said it sucks did he seem pissed or no um he definitely seemed he seemed pissed at first because he was definitely like I’m not like I’m
I’m here hanging out I’m not here to I’m not just some dog you know this isn’t a show um but he was he was respectful to the guy in the end no I am he’s not um but he he was respectful I think I I got a little more respect for Porto
I guess a little bit over the years but still think his pizza [ __ ] is B well he’s just a little bit of a chief at the end of the day um he is a little bit of a chief but it’s just so tough because he’s kind of life like you know I guess
She’s kind of earned it a little bit he has he has yeah secret heartt up early 5 to three dude dud I told you got to cover they’re going to cover bro St Francis is not that good I don’t know who thought like Vegas gets things wrong they don’t know Sacred Heart basketball
Come on dude well take your word I can see I can picture Anthony Latina right now dude yelling up and down the court all right he’s probably gon’s I think he’s gonna be leaving Shak it hard soon yeah he’s gonna get a big job no or
He’s get fired yeah I don’t know man I just think that that well because the team sucks they’re not good it’s just impossible win there and then yeah they’re trying to get a new basketball facility oh they are cuz that pit Center is so outdated Antiquated yeah it’s
Brutal it’s like a high school in there dude Oh um so you know I think that they’re they’re trying to build up by the hockey arena I think eventually they want to have a hockey arena like where they can play put a court down okay um so we’ll see and I would imagine at that point maybe they want like a
Coaching change you know yeah yeah it’s just I don’t know he’s been there for like 14 years that’s a long time it just hasn’t like I don’t know dude everyone [ __ ] leaves I forget this guy I forget who he was but he went to Duke
After one year two of two guys my first re year this kid came in he led division one basketball in scoring oh wow and they transferred to Duke I think yeah yeah I think it was Duke right after that it was either duke or Sean
Hall wow but it was like it happened two years in a row our top guy transfers out because it’s like with transfer portal of course I’m going to go to a bigger school but it’s like it’s so funny I talked to Mike about this all the time
Like why like you can play through Sacred Heart as the as the guy right but then you’re gonna go to Duke and ride the bench well I think the hope is that they could be a piece of a Team champ that elevates you oh some eyeballs NBA I
Don’t know yeah but don’t you think it’s better if he was just cooking people he’s literally averaging 35 a game yeah I guess uh speaking of college basketball too Providence a t tough loss last night at the um am Mutual Pavilion Ry was there he was yeah on his story um
They lose 6157 to Cal who was on ranked Providence 23 um and they were five and a half Point favorites uh but conference Big East you know um you those games are always tough um and still uh Providence you know an outstanding record at this
Point um you know of 11 and3 um and two- one in conference play uh including 10-1 at home so that was their first home loss uh they’ll get back out on the court um for their next game I of course now that I had it pulled up it goes away
Um against kraton on Saturday that one’s in kraton um so chance to get some Redemption and then at MSG um on Wednesday January 10th um against the Johnnies uh so that should be going right now it’s saying that St John’s is a 70% favorite in that one I
Don’t I don’t know about that um but I just thought that was kind of interesting um then just a couple other nuggets here NBA wise um I think it was OJ uh agen noi’s second game the Knicks won last night this was a national game
On ABC and it was funny um Dave was tight because someone said how Ryan ruko did like a stump Challenge and didn’t shout out Dave because they used to be partners back the day so they mentioned that is there some bad blood there no I think they were just having fun with it
But it was it was kind of funny that he mentioned that uh but the Knicks yeah 116 100 uh over the Bulls so now they are 19 and 15 um they were led by Bronson 31 points 13 assists uh aobi 11 points eight assists 104 from three-point range and how about
Isaiah hartenstein 10 points 20 rebounds um and then Jules Rand 35 points so we’ll see if this trade elevates and Knicks a lot of talks about how um you know it’s a big loss losing Emanuel quickly and and obviously RJ Barrett of course um Lakers lost again last night
11096 so now one game under 500 um but we’ve seen them you know kind of struggle up to this point in the season and then turn it on uh the Clippers have been on fire 131 122 over the Suns um and Paul George had 33 points in
This one uh kawhai also with 30 so finally those two healthy uh maybe gives them a chance to finally um break through this year absolutely um two NBA games tonight bucks at Spurs first half of the double header TNT 730 Milwaukee nine and a half Point favorites I mean I
Don’t know how you don’t like that I mean the Spurs are brutal I don’t know what the injury situation is here crazy how Middleton game time decision um and then you have Warriors you know hosting the Nuggets Denver three and a half Point Road favorites uh Warriors 16 and
17 but um I kind of like them at home um you know we we’ll see what happens there but that would be kind of my thoughts uh go with Milwaukee on the road and then go with the dog at home and the Warriors I know they haven’t looked great and
Nuggets could run them out of the building but just kind of a thought there um and shout out to everybody joining us on H Instagram live uh love love having that feature now um being a to reach everybody got brunsky in the building dude BR the building and my
Cousin uh Thomas Baron I see joining us T it’s been a while hope he’s doing well and good to have him with us um so yeah a lot going on with without the NFL uh tonight um and you know a couple college basketball games with with ranked teams you have
Number 15 Memphis at Tulsa number 19 James Madison who’s undefeated right now 13-0 uh at the University of Louisiana Monroe uh pepperine at Gonzaga Gonzaga we talked about how they’re just barely in the top 25 at N9 and4 and then Colorado 11-2 uh at number 10 Arizona um
So you have all of that combined with the golf combined with the hockey um and combined you know with with with the NBA so a lot of sports to watch I’m so excited about it um and I can’t wait to talk about about it tomorrow as well as
Our final regular season frenzy of the Season Tony that’s kind of crazy isn’t it and it’s gonna get a little crazy too because a lot of quarterbacks are sitting out I don’t know if you saw that Jackson out momes out flacko out just name a couple because teams you know
That don’t need to win these games uh Stafford Carson Wentz gonna make his first start as a ram um so that should be interesting to see yeah one of the guys that you wanted on the Jets dude yeah we’ll see what he looks like what could have been what could have been um
By the way dude something I totally forgot to mention um about the Rangers uh Park of the gudra no Brennan othman was called up yesterday um and I was just doing some research um on where they may put him um and I see that this article uh was just uh published I I
Guess it probably last night yeah last night BR nothing if you don’t know 16th overall pick of the 2021 draft obviously Rangers got him he’s been down in Harford I believe he’s had 26 points over 29 games down in Harford um currently though he is on a nine game
Goal scoring drought so hasn’t scored a goal in nine games but obviously still contributing with assists and stuff like that um and I think that this is exactly the switch up that we need honestly he’s a highly taled Prospect I absolutely love it I’ve seen some highlights of him
He’s got a great wrister and he plays very physical he’s a forward and I was just reading this article uh by Larry Brooks maybe it is Larry Brooks um saying one of two scenarios which one I think you know I’ve definitely alluded to um Wy W could make a more dramatic
Move by elevating othman to the right-wing spot replacing Blake wheeler and putting wheeler down to a bottom six roll which is exactly what I said yeah I think that’s exactly what should happen dude um because that those the bottom s sucks dude wow my bad the laptop pretty
Good like great snag dude um I mean Nick Bono’s got a go dude um and I’m excited to see opman though maybe he he like he could be like a potentially like a like a Allstar down the road dude Jesus It’s gotta be 20 maybe and he was 21 uh 20
Like 2021 draft you said 2021 draft Yeah Yeah so it’s nice nice that’s awesome I’s see how old he is he’s 20 yeah let’s go and and Brendan opman oh I just saw the play it was like a clear like Ricochet but I stacked it just at the right time
The hands dude um and Josh B also saying last week of picks uh last warm-up for you guys for the playoffs very true you guys are going down down dude you down H so yeah we’re we’re jacked up for that it would have been crazy if we were
In a tight race right now quarterback sitting out who’s going to win you never really know lot of extra resour Wentz yeah Carson Wentz Tony oh God I don’t want to hear about Carson Wentz I don’t want to hear it football you know what and obviously we’ll talk about this more tomorrow one
Last thought here um is I am very confused in terms of where to go with this Chicago Green Bay game you know Chicago is already eliminated Justin Fields is playing for his future um you know the Packers you know sometimes you you rely on them they come up short but
Jordan love has played well his last couple games are you a little like you’re not sure where to go there I mean I’m thinking tight either way but it’s hard to say definitively what goes on there I mean I’m thinking pack just because they’re at home but Fields is
Tough to defend Fields is tough to defend and we’ve seen the Packers also blow it at Lambo yeah so I would lean towards the Bears dude I like Justin Fields playing for your future yeah don’t underestimate him Michael so yeah we’ll talk about that Michael was tied
About field because he we talked about the the win loss record yeah Kell new to Tik Tok just sub to our YouTube guess what she says what go love has been great this season wow she knows what she’s talking about 30 touchdown passes more than Patrick Mahomes maybe you
Bumped into at Lambo know yeah oh oh shout out Kelly good to have you with us uh so yeah we’re excited uh for this speak of throwing the ball though did you see that video of Mahomes throwing a football 62 miles an hour no I didn’t absolutely kind of ridiculous dude he
Used to be a baseball player that’s why 62 miles hour rifle the football 62 miles per hour um I forget who he was tossing with a retired quarter I forget who it was with a retired player uh and he he was even throwing like 57 5 56 Tony threw
Went 57 off my laptop but luckily I snagged it I heard I heard I saw I heard I saw I heard saw I heard I saw but honestly oh yeah hold tomorrow’s gonna be interesting um and then this weekend just finding who’s in who’s out um
