The Morning After Sports Betting

The final 60 of the show starts with a discussion about Magic Johnson's recent comments on Ben Simmons wanting to work out with him this summer and learn how to be a taller point guard like Magic was. With LeBron and Simmons being signed to the same player agency one could question if Simmons hanging out with Magic, who is the President of Basketball Ops for the Lakers. is tampering. Joe and Gabe discuss this year's over/under win totals for MLB teams, going through and picking which they think are good bets.

Dr. Roto and Adam Ronis open the show talking about the breaking news of the Cleveland Browns signing Kareem hunt, calling the move a surprise in that the Browns did not need a running back (Nick Chubb), and the organization will get unwanted attention by signing Hunt, who will be suspended for his role in the assault of a woman at a Cleveland hotel; Dr. Roto finds solace in the fact that Hunt's contract is only a 1-year deal. The guys talk about Kyler Murray saying he is ready to for the NFL lifestyle, and wonder which team will benefit the most by drafting the undersized, but highly talented Heisman winner; Dr. Roto also wonders if Murray, down the line, would revert back to baseball. The guys finish the hour citing that between bad salaries, and concussion issues show that NFL owners don't care about their players, and never will.

Jim Day joins the show to begin hour 2, talking about the AAF and his thoughts on what the fantasy football scene is going to be with the season only being 10 games instead of the NFL's 16 game regular season. In today's Get Off My Lawn segment Gabe goes after Major League Baseball and it's owners for collusion against the players during this free agency period. He argues with all the money the owners are making they shouldn't be cheap with the players who only have a short window to make all their money. The get off my lawn segment leads to the discussion about a possible MLB player strike, and if anyone would even care, given the current state of baseball viewership in the United States.

Gabe and Joe open up the final 60 by discussing this weeks AAF games and what spreads and totals they like, giving out their picks for the opening week of the league. The AAF has a complete different set of rules than college and the NFL, having no extra point attempts, no kickoffs, and instead of onside kicks, you have the option to go for it on your own 35, having to get at least 10 yards to keep the ball. Gabe gives his pick taking the San Diego Fleet -3 against the San Antonio Commandos. Joe and Gabe then dive into tonight's NBA slate, discussing what games they are looking to lay some money down on.

Gabe and Corey reacted differently when Kevin Durant finally broke his media silence - by ripping the media; Gabe told a story about Peter Gammons getting a baseball trade completely wrong; Corey went nuts defending Lebron James' involvement in the Anthony Davis NBA trade deadline drama; after the Lakers outrageous offer to the Pelicans the LaVar Ball debate reignited; Gabe lost his mind when Corey's only take away from Super Bowl 53 was that Jared Goff had a bad day.

They're are even rumors of the Chicago Bears looking to sign Hunt this offseason. The Kareem Hunt conversation leads to athletes in professional sports and when their distractions outweigh their contributions to their team.

With the stand still in this years MLB Free agency period Game and Corey try to figure out the logic between waiting this long to sign a deal with a team, rather than signing earlier in the offseason.
