The Morning After Sports Betting

Gabe Morency and Corey Parson open up the show talking about todays NBA trade deadline and if the people in the media really know inside information or just get the news a couple minutes before the masses do and try to "break" the story or report as their own. After Kevin Durant's comments about media members went viral, Gabe and Corey disagree if his comments were justified or not. Gabe thinks that KD cares too much about what people think about him, and that he should expect a high level of media coverage since he is one of the best athletes in the world. Corey takes Durant's side, saying that journalists try to get athletes to slip up or take quotes out of context to gain notoriety. Gabe doesn't feel bad that Harrison Barnes got traded mid-game saying that he is still going to get paid no matter what team he is on. Corey thinks it shows disrespect by the Mavs to do that to one of their players during a game.

The Prez joins Gabe and Corey to talk tonights gambling slate. Prez starts in the NHL, he likes the Maple Leafs even though they are huge favorites at -300\. He thens jumps to the NBA taking the Bulls against the Pelicans with the reasoning that the Anthony Davis drama hanging over New Orleans will be too much to overcome. Coach Nick of Bball Breakdown joins the show to talk about all the rumors surrounding the NBA deadline. He gives his opinion on the Lakers situation and gives a unique perspective on the Tobias Harris trade which could set them up to get Kawhi Leonard. Gabe and Corey talk about the AAF, the new professional football league and if it can sustain itself during the NFL and NCAAF offseason.

Level 2 of the show starts with Gabe and Corey comparing the Championship resumes of Larry Bird, Kobe Bryant, and Lebron James. Gabe thinks MLB should not change anything to make the game go faster, thinking that the league is in a panic, and needs to Get Off His Lawn. Corey and Gabe argue if MLB should be changing any rules, including a 20 second pitch clock, to speed up the game.  Gabe argues that the National League plays better fundamental baseball than the American League but admits that the AL has better individual players. Gabe and Corey go back to count up the times each League won the World Series.

Gabe Morency and Corey Parson open the show looking at the prop bets that hit and miss during President Trump's State of the Union address. Gabe and Corey break down the All-Star caliber lineup that the Sixers will be touting now, now that they have received Tobias Harris from the Clippers. The guys see if the Celtics can make any moves to keep up with the Sixers, but Gabe says the problem is not the Celtics talent, it's the fact that Kyrie Irving does not gel with the team. Gabe and Corey argue if LeBron James is a product of the Millennial personality, citing how Michael Jordan always fought through to win with the Bulls, and didn't leave a team because he could not win the Championship. Gabe politely argues with Chris Ventra that Larry Bird had the competitive drive to play in any era of the NBA.

The final 60 starts with Maria Marino joining the show to talk NBA and NFL. Gabe points out the difference in between PEDs in the NFL and MLB pointing out how Julian Edelman got suspended earlier this year for steroids and got to come back in the same year and win Super Bowl MVP, compared to the MLB where players could get suspended for the whole season even as first time offenders. Maria, Gabe, and Corey discuss championship parades and if the Patriots fans and players are getting bored of them after winning a championship in one of the major sports every year. Gabe is tired of people throwing around the Greatest Of All Time title or GOAT; he thinks that the term is used to loosely and put on players who don't deserve it.

The second level of the show starts with Gabe and Corey chatting with Pete Yannopoulos about the fact that LeBron James may be a great player, but when it comes to recruiting guys to play with him, he is a terrible GM. During the Get Off My Lawn segment, Gabe says the Lakers, and the NBA, are showing too much weakness and hypocrisy when it comes to their top players demanding trades. Gabe and Corey argue if LaVar Ball has ruined Lonzo Ball's brand, with Corey saying the Ball family has their own brand, and Gabe thinking LaVar has lost millions of dollars for Lonzo. Gabe's biggest problem with the NBA is that he thinks the system is flawed, citing how only a dozen teams have won the NBA championship in the last three decades.

Gabe Morency and Corey Parson open the show figuring out how to navigate through sports during the fallout of Super Bowl 53\. The guys also realize they can talk about the NBA, and how the Sixers seem to be out-of-sync without J.J. Redick in the lineup. The fact that Anthony Davis has said he would sign a long-term deal with either the Lakers or Knicks if he gets traded has the guys wondering if Knicks brass will unload everything else to get Davis to come to Madison Square Garden; the guys also realize that the Lakers are doing everything in their power to get Davis, but many teams won't take Lonzo Ball, no thanks to his father, LaVar. Gabe finds it surprising that most people are looking forward to the NHL Playoffs over the NBA playoffs, March Madness, and MLB Opening Day.

Gabe and Corey discuss if they should make the day after the Super Bowl a national holiday. Corey makes the point that with the industry they are in, they'd still have to come to work the Monday after the Super Bowl, so it wouldn't effect them either way. Corey and Gabe go over the NBA slate for tonight, picking out spreads and totals that they like and might take. Gabe feels like Anthony Davis got bad advice from someone and it won't end up well for AD, especially if he refuses to play and sits out and quit son his team. Corey thinks that the Pelicans should trade AD before he becomes a free agent just so they can get something back for him instead of being left for nothing.

Gabe says that he realized that his favorited sport to watch isn't football but actually college basketball. He goes on to say that he finds himself getting bored while watching the NFL and falling asleep, while with college basketball he is paying more attention. In today's Get Off My Lawn segment Gabe doubles down on the NFL never meeting expectations. Saying that they produce a terrible on field product even though everybody acts like its amazing. Gabe and Corey debate whether Cardi B should've even done any Super Bowl related events after saying she will not participate in the halftime show as a protest for Colin Kaepernick.

Gabe morency and Corey Parson open the show talking about how the Super Bowl was terrible, and Corey finally can cement the fact that Jared Goff is nothing more than a glorified bus driver; Gabe, however, still thinks Goff is a good QB, and will be for years to come. As much as Gabe doesn't like the Patriots, or the Red Sox, or the City of Boston, he has to tip his cap to the city, being the first to win back-to-back Championships against the same city, Los Angeles, with the last time this happening back in 1969, when the New York Jets and Mets beat the Baltimore Colts and Orioles, respectively. Gabe and Corey argue if the Rams loss was the fault of Jared Goff, or Sean McVay.
