00:00us on the west her hotline sam how are you you guys ever have those days when you just step
00:05on
00:05a rake all day oh yeah never once it it just took me it took me 32 minutes to make
00:12a sports bet at
00:13the encore boston harbor i'm ready to kill somebody like it should not take that long
00:18so what is this you went to a place in boston and what there are lines there's nobody working
00:26at the sports book right now there's literally not a soul in here i'm in the sports book right now
00:30at
00:30the encore boston harbor which is the biggest casino in massachusetts and the sports book has
00:3610 windows they're all closed there's not a single staffer there so then i got to go to the kiosk
00:41to
00:41make this step but the kiosk only takes 300 unless you have your player's card well guess who doesn't
00:46have a player's card me so now i got to go to win rewards and get a player's card and
00:51there's a line
00:52there and then i get back to the kiosk and they don't scan like this card isn't scanning so all
00:58i
00:58want to do is bet just take my money and i can't get my bet down 32 minutes it took
01:02for me to finally
01:03place this bet you did get it in before we called good barely i think i know what it is
01:10you want to
01:10share yeah i think i know what it is because you know this this this preamble story here to the
01:16bat
01:16being placed will make the win even sweeter if you hit it so i want to i want to enjoy
01:21that with
01:21you if you hit yeah no i've got i've got a nice bet multiple bets on illinois plus two tonight
01:27against michigan yes i i made this bet when you texted me and it took me 32 seconds i believe
01:34to
01:34make this bet uh but not for as much money not for nearly as much money i'm i know that
01:40uh why do we
01:41like illinois so much i just think they should be favored in the game my numbers have illinois minus two
01:47i'm getting two so i have a four point discrepancy uh michigan's got a really good defense but
01:52their bigs are very paint oriented they like to camp around the rim which most bigs do and they
01:59always used to do in the 80s and 90s but illinois's got four bigs that can shoot so they really
02:04space the
02:05floor and stretch you out and you know given the fact that they're at home where they're very tough
02:09to beat illinois i don't know if you guys know this illinois ken pom has been doing advanced
02:14analytics since 1997 this is the number one offense in the history of his database illinois
02:20they are very good they got they got shooters everywhere if the shots go in they're going to
02:25win tonight all right here's to it noted i gotta i gotta i gotta go take a look i didn't
02:32get a text
02:32did i sell you that i sell you it sounded like i sold you there yep no you definitely sold
02:36me
02:37there's no way you didn't yeah all you have to do is say it and we're in yeah it doesn't
02:42take a lot
02:42yeah often this happens on friday nights after the show and i'm at the bar already and that that
02:47you know that you took me out for a ride on rutgers that one time that didn't work out real
02:51well i got a text from sam maybe monday that simply said blue jays guess what bam money i also
02:59got a
02:59text from him the other day that said red socks guess what bam no money but still nobody wins them
03:04all nobody wins right that's right all right we're on it we're in on illinois um and i'd like to
03:10congratulate you sam as a much younger man than the amongst the three of us for getting getting
03:16to aggravated complaining on the radio about the inconvenience of making your bet uh or just or just
03:24anything in general you've had a very much old man yelling at clouds uh vibe here to start which
03:29you know you're you're easing into you know your your later years middle age yeah yes i'm sure my
03:35my ancestors are so proud that i'm complaining about not not being able to get down a thousand
03:40dollars on a basketball game from a casino yeah i'm sure they're very proud right now i mean i've been
03:44to enough casinos sure not not always is there that many you know that much going on staff wise but
03:53i'm
03:53sure the waitresses were everywhere i'm sure you could you couldn't stop turning down drinks
03:59i'm still here i there's nobody here i i haven't seen one person with like a win badge or anything
04:04like it's it's remarkable i mean we don't we don't have to talk about this all day obviously but like
04:09you used to be able to go into a casino and you could bet i mean you could bet a
04:13thousand dollars
04:13easily um i mean it's a big bet for a lot of people but relative to the bigger i mean
04:18there's
04:18going to be somebody that's going to bet 10 or 20 000 on the game tonight i mean that's a
04:22huge bet in
04:23my world but the fact that i can't make a bet over 300 unless i have a player's card and
04:28i scan in and
04:29all that stuff like no like open up a counter and and take my money and then let me see
04:33it is boston
04:35by the way too not like a small town right right you would think maybe boston could handle it's not
04:40like you're in worcester or something you're not even in worcester sam panijatovich with us uh sam
04:46and i were talking about going to a baseball game this summer that's a plan we might um start to
04:51you know put down what about baseball futures you mentioned the white socks i think maybe last
04:57week uh when you were on your white socks fan by the way if that matters probably doesn't but you
05:02like them to clear their number what else are you thinking baseball wise so i did actually i did make
05:09a drive yesterday i bet some white socks to win the al central at 40 to 1 that number's gone
05:14um i you
05:15know i talked to a lot of guys in vegas for my job and uh you know two of the
05:19bigger wise guy
05:20casinos in vegas they have a market up on this stuff too and every book has a different price
05:24so the westgate has the white socks at 21 to 1 and then circa has them at 23 to 1
05:30so if those
05:31respected books that take money from winning players if they're at 21 and 23 i'm betting the
05:3640 i don't even care what it is it's just a numerical edge so that that number is like 35
05:42at 30 now across the market and then i had somebody told me i need to bet on jack taglione
05:47to hit 30
05:48home runs uh he's the the lefty the power kid from uh from the royals yeah and uh i mean
05:55he he was
05:56destroying the minor leagues last year then he got up and he went into a slump but when he connects
06:01i
06:01don't know how much jack tags you guys have seen he hits the ball hard i mean he hit a
06:07ball the other
06:07day in spring training it was 122 miles an hour off the bat that's it's unheard of so if he
06:13can if
06:13he can land a couple in the barrel um you know you could find a nice price on him to
06:17hit 30 plus home
06:18runs okay i wanted to ask you about the seahawks as a defending champion going into next year so much
06:27is still to happen you've got the rams and the niners both playoff teams both good or great even
06:32how do the seahawks feel to you as a reliable bet next year with you know largely the same team
06:41of
06:41course a different offensive coordinator walker maybe leaves and you know bulldog will tell you
06:47it's still sam darnold right i mean you're still going to be like a little bit or a lot skeptical
06:52do the seahawks feel like a team that the public will want to go under on because of some of
06:59these
06:59factors i love that bulldog is still not quite there on sam darnold all he's done is win like
07:0527 regular games in a super bowl and bulldog's like i don't know look neither were you two games
07:12ago i i'm not in on him like all the famer but i mean i mean is he even 30
07:17yet i don't think so i
07:20think he's he was young at the draft so yeah i mean he's he's younger than alan isn't then he
07:25isn't
07:25yeah i think that's right yeah i think he was in 2017 draft wasn't he when he was 21 no
07:30he was
07:31the 18 draft same same draft okay he was third overall after baker okay yeah so he's he's right
07:36on the cusp of turning 30 and a lot of quarterbacks just don't they don't find themselves until 30 or
07:41more importantly they don't win until 30 i mean when was drew bree how old was drew breeze when he
07:45first
07:45won the super bowl i mean he was probably in his early 30s and then he put together like seven
07:51great
07:51more years of football so you know some guys just find it in different ways i think the point on
07:56seattle though there's a lot of building blocks there that you like um they they bring back i
08:01believe they're bringing back nine defensive starters of the 11 and it could be more i mean if they they
08:06want to pay um the the defensive staff is mostly in place and mike mcdonald is a brilliant coach i
08:12mean
08:12this guy cut his teeth under both harbaugh's remember that he coached under john and jim so there's a lot
08:17to
08:18like there but really um and i again i'm walking through a casino right now i don't have it in
08:22front
08:22of me but if you looked at the seahawks last five first round picks they've hit all of them like
08:27they've all hit and that's the key you want to draft you want to develop yeah and you want to
08:31play good
08:32defense and they they do all those things um and and you know they paid the quarterback they went for
08:37it i i think you can replace kenneth walker uh because the line is really good so i i'm not
08:42you know
08:43usually i see a team win a super bowl i'm like oh they're going to regress
08:46i don't know that i would bet them under the win total because they're just they're a well-oiled
08:50machine and and they're not going to lose a lot from that team yeah i just i did you say
08:56this i still
08:57i have a feeling that the public will not respect them yeah that's the my take on darnold is i
09:05i share
09:05what i think will be a public skepticism still because we've seen this with guys i mean i wasn't
09:11talking to guys like yourself on the betting markets but like peyton manning finally breaks
09:16through and when wins one and a year later we're taking calls from people who are convinced peyton
09:20manning can't win because because it started that's where it started right what's the narrative on you
09:25when you show up and darnold i think still has the ghost problem even though he played as well as
09:32he
09:32played in the playoffs for them and they've got a super bowl ring i think a lot of people will
09:36still
09:37have a lot some and i guess i'm among them are still going to be like i'm not sure about
09:43him
09:45okay i look i understand that i think though if you want to like play this out and this is
09:50always a fun
09:50game to play right after the season ends and people always wonder how do you fill 15 minutes when
09:56there's no sports on this is how the most popular teams like who do you think they are from i
10:02have like
10:02one a like if you're going to give me a draft and i i pick first on the most overvalued
10:07team
10:07i would take x who do you think x is most overvalued yeah um i don't know it's tough how
10:17do you want to
10:17define that like new england yep that's it that's the first pick for me i'd go new england would be
10:23one
10:24and then if somebody took new england i'd take chicago too those teams are going to be so popular
10:31everybody's going to bet they're over you know they they flew over their win totals last year
10:34and it's so funny like the patriot win total i think it closed at nine and they won all those
10:39games and they go to the super bowl so what do the sports books do the next year nine and
10:43a half
10:43nine and a half come on and get it yep come on in i dare you to do it again
10:47come on in bet your
10:49hometown patriots we won't be here to take your bets but come on in and make those bets we will
10:54not
10:54send you to the kiosk and you can make a bet on monday just get your card scanned sam can
10:58walk
10:59through a casino in boston talking about how the patriots are overrated and nobody's there to hear
11:03them it's completely safe space right you should be getting rolled for that but you're not you're
11:07in no danger not that i want you getting rolled how do you feel about the bills as as overvalued
11:12sam like there's a lot of holes to fill there's a new coaching staff like there's there's enough to
11:19be uneasy about i mean we know what a giant eraser jar of whiteout josh allen is but even still
11:27like
11:27there's there's a lot to do here i think they're priced perfectly we talked about this last week
11:33or maybe two weeks ago i 10 and a half and the over is minus 140 like that that sounds
11:38just about
11:39right um i mean you guys know this more than i do i mean they've been regular season warriors and
11:45they've been playoff failures i mean that my concerns with them are never in the regular season
11:49you know they're going to win enough to get to the playoffs they just have to not do build things
11:53in the playoffs and that unfortunately they just can't they can't stop doing that i will say though
11:58you know i'm not looking to aggressively bet the bills like i was last year but i was listening
12:04yesterday mike was talking about mike evans and i'm like oh my god i'm gonna have to go to rehab
12:08if
12:08they sign mike evans like i'm gonna be all in again i'm gonna i'm gonna jump right back in
12:13well we will be here for you if and when uh enjoy your weekend good luck out there sam
12:18all right thanks guys let's get illinois home tonight let's go
