1:02A number is called the story. It's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. This is a numbers game with Gil Alexander on V-Send. Our number three of a numbers game at V-Send. V-Send. V-Send.com game plus I-Hard radio, YouTube TV, and of course, serious XM Channel. It is Gil Alexander, Kelly's behind the glass, because ladies and gentlemen, it's about to be about to be unscripted with the crackman Bill Crackenberger. First, let's read some tweets. By the way, the V-Send, I should say the beating the book MLB preview betting podcast is out in case you missed any of the Joe PETA segments or the Mark Borscher bass winner segments from earlier this month, we put those together into podcast form. So those are on the beating the book feed next beat in the book podcast will be the March madness pod beginning of next week. Me, Toddy wish Dev will Hill Jeff parlay getting the whole band back together for the March madness podcast JD and Florida have feasts and Pagula bets, but let's have a little fun ready for the best hour of the week with crackman always parlaying all the picks today.

2:05Well, that will be fun. Ryan Hyatt, when Bill Crackman joins, let's Bill Crackman with K on Twitter, when Bill Crackenberger joins, Kelly, Kelly, on V-Send, do I grab a legal pad and pen and go to school? Yes, yes, I do class in session this morning. Had all go want to talk bad beats. This just happened. Oh, boy, what's this? Miami, Ohio beating UMass at the half 3937. What was your bet? I can't tell. Oh, did you have a, oh, you had the live money line on UMass plus 165 and they lost by two points. Sorry about that. Oh, you had a tie at 10 to one. Oh, did Miami, Ohio just scored the buzzer or something to not make it a tie for you? I'm sorry about that. Josie Kelly, come on, just can't buy tennis paradise. You know, owns it, right? Oh, yes, that's true. Larry Ellison owns tennis paradise. So Jess can't probably buy that one. Johnny B, it's Caesars. I'm currently in Atlantic City and I'm seven stars flat out comedy. At least I get free food and cocktails at the lounge. I just can't bet anything.

3:05Quote, you can bet in person, but the app you're limited to the max on the app. That's the guy who had the $5 bet that he said they said he was betting too much. And Mark Hansen, I finally got a chance to watch action. Crack was great. Todd was great. Kelly was fun to watch. But Vegas Dave, what a parasite. Yeah. Yeah. Kind of true. Without further ado, unscripted with the cragman Bill Krakenberger. Let's go. Billy. Good morning. Good morning, sir. Uh, legal pen and pad Ryan Hyatt. Everyone else get your pen and pads out. I have four college basketball games today. Stop it. Think about. Yeah. Want to do it at the top? Are you? Uh, well, let me make sure none of them started starting now because some started. No, Willie had to Willie had two starts so far. Miami of Ohio and the Mac. You believe one of the games is now. And then GW four. Oh, you had to play in the game. Not me. Alan Boston gave me four games to the really like one of which was Iowa.

4:09So Iowa, uh, doesn't say it started. No, no, no. I said you asked Miami for Ohio started GW. No, it says 9 a.m. Iowa, Ohio State. Oh, why didn't that about the tip? Oh, they're about the tip off there. Yeah. They they're not even there. They're not even a tip to off yet. Okay. Give me that one right now. Uh, Iowa is one of his big plays. He gave me four big games today that he likes. So, um, having a, having a tough, having a tough week. However, one, I could tell when he gave me one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Do Iowa quick before it tips off. Yeah. Do Iowa fit. Uh, first guys, uh, 11 games before from a really, really likes Iowa. Ready for any, ready for the other ones. Let's go here. Oh, Iowa plus the Iowa. Iowa. I was, uh, I, he said money line, but it's picking right here at circle. Pick a minus one. Okay. Right here. But let's count that since it hasn't tipped off yet. Uh, Tulane Tulane big. I say when he says big, I just write down big. So Tulane is one of those games where Charlotte.

5:09That's later on today plus one and a half plus two, uh, Westgate. I'm seeing. So, uh, if not, you know, I always says buy the two three and five. So if it's 10 cents extra, like over at the sound point, it's one and a half. You can buy it the plus two minus a dollar 20. That is better than taking the one and a half. Uh, that's Tulane. Let's see. You see Davis. I think that's here in Vegas. Let me just see that. Vegas. Yes. Lee's family form. Yes. I mean, they're for a pink Floyd show. Yeah. It was good. 4,000 seats. Perfect size. Yeah. So great. You went there. Right. Last night. Yeah. Good, good time. Great time. Great time. Yeah. He says wrong team favorite here. Okay. So that's all. So David, you see Davis plus two. Uh, there is a two and a half at about MGM. Yeah. Yeah. I tell you, you know, I know I, I'm a bug like that. I'll say, you know, there's a two and a half. Yeah. Because you have to have lots of outs. If you're serious, and I mean serious means if you bet a hundred dollars, if you bet a hundred dollars, that, that's being serious to me.

6:09If you're betting a sawbucker, you know, 20 bucks. All right. You go to the book of your, you know, wherever you're walking in that to have some fun for 10 bucks. But if you're bet a hundred dollars, you're damn well right. You should have lots of outs. So and, and MGM should be one of them. There's a extra half a point there. Uh, UC Davis plus two and a half minus 15 is, and that's okay. Uh, let's look here. One more western Kentucky was the fourth one guys western Kentucky. And they are six PM. They are minus one and a half minus one that at Westgate, uh, minus one minus one minus one nine actually Westgate. They were playing Kennesaw State. There's four games. See if we can get Alan to go three and one of those four. Be great. Iowa, Toledo, UC Davis, Iowa, Tulane, Tulane, partner, UC Davis, Western Kentucky, and the Hill top. I don't know why the Iowa game hasn't tipped off yet, because it says nine o'clock on my screen. You know, that's good. Guys, he's opening tip times a little, a little fudgy by the excellent use of Saul Buck, by the way, well done. Sawski, Sawski. Yeah. Um, Saul Buck.

7:14You know, you're not a Saul Buck. Hey, man, can I just thank you right off the top? Let's get this out of the way. Oh, yeah, sure. No, thank you. I have to thank gone Willie Rizzo for that. Willie Rizzo. I want to thank you personally. I missed dinner the other night crack. Bill, you were, you were kind enough to invite me with a nifty and Willie. Yep. And I, I didn't make it, but Willie was kind enough to bring this forward. This is a Sinatra key chain. Sinatra key chain. He had them made up for the season's palace show. This is great when he came back. And he had them made up and he had about 10 of them in his garage. He gave me, me one on you one, uh, Frank Sinatra. What does, what does this sound there? It says, it says Frank Sinatra. It says love and peace Frank Sinatra. Nice. Isn't that cool? It's amazing, man. Yeah. That's so great. As you see, I, I, I was, I sent you the video that you missed and I said, I'll have this on eBay by midnight. No, I saw the video. I saw the video. I said, I said, I said, I said, yeah, yeah, that's right. I said you eBay. Yeah. No, that was nice. I appreciate it. I love old stuff. Old time stuff like that. Oh my God. And Momentos like that. I'm not even worthy. You know what he gave me the other night?

8:14So he came the other night. And um, he had another box full. He's like a magician with a box full of tricks. He came out with that for you, but he came out with a paper bag full of stuff. And one was one of his really valued possessions. But again, he has no children, no family, a little scare recently. Thank Willie. Stay strong, my man. Uh, and he isn't, he isn't good, good health, good shape, but he had a scare. I mean, they had to put the paddles on him at a baseball hand. Yeah. Yeah. You're telling us. Yeah. So, uh, gave me a handkerchief that was in Frank's pocket. Oh, man. Signed by Frank. Well, those little handkerchiefs that they put, you know, I've never thought. I don't, I don't own a tie. By the way, is that D&A still on there? Was it washed? Yeah. Frank has that, uh, you know, always had a nice handkerchief in his pocket. And there was a signed handkerchief. One of his valued possessions. We talk about handkerchief. So we're like, my dad used to, he used to put a handkerchief in his suit. Yeah. And he would, and he would take that as I was, I remember this visit as a kid. He would take that handkerchief out of his pocket.

9:17And he would blow his nose into that handkerchief. And then he would just stuff it right back. Oh, no, no, it's for showing not blowing. Oh, no, he did. No, right. Yeah. I was like, I don't know. As a kid, I'm like, that is disgusting. He's like, yeah, handkerchief, handkerchief. What are you talking about? What is the supposed top pocket though? Top pocket. Just shove it back in there. So is that a commoner? Was that just my dad? Might have been your dad. Look at this. Can we throw up? Can we throw up a Bill Crackenbury? We have a little graphic over there. Bill Crackenbury. Let's actually ask that boy. Actually, Bill Crackenbury, if they win, Alan Boston, they lose. That's correct. I was too late. You see, David Sylvester Kentucky. Okay. Very good. Very good. You know, I know last week I came in with a head full of steam about the guy with the flamingo. And he didn't show up for court Monday. He did. However, they pulled his passport. Yeah, they pulled Mitchell Fairborne. They pulled his passport. And a little bit more came out about the story there. The surveillance footage. Just for anyone that, you know, I know people think I'm probably overreacting and going crazy about it. But yeah, I am. I absolutely am. And I like to get his name out there. I don't want people to know what an animal he is.

10:20A surveillance footage of Mitchell Fairborne showed him grabbing the flamingo by the legs pulling into the ground. The bird tried to escape. He dragged it down for a second time. This is the same guy supposed to go to court. They pulled his passport did not show up for court Monday. Has a new court date. He had, he had paid $12,000, which he did to stay in town. And his, his lawyer was there. New court date in May. But Mitchell Fairborne, Fairborne from Ontario, Canada. I will be mentioning your name many times before this is all over. He is the, he is the guy that took the flamingo from the flamingo area, brought it up to a hotel. Yeah, brought it up to his room and, and drunken idiots. And probably they should probably get rid of that, that whole exhibit, to be honest with you. If they're too cheap to put a security guard, which I'm sure Caesar's palace or Caesar's corporation is, they should probably get rid of that. It's a shame. You have to get ashamed because it's a throwback, right? Remember when the Mirage had the tigers right out in the front. Yes, yes, it's exactly right. The tigers and they had the dolphins and stuff. They're all sick-free and Roy had lions and right right at the back of the mirage.

11:22That's what I meant. Yeah, the lions are the white tigers. White tigers, white tigers right there too. They're all relocated to a better area. I'm told though. It's funny. You say that because that, that was in the article. And Los Vegas Regional was talking about, they probably should close that flamingo area and take the flamingos and relocate them. They're safe and happy, and instead of, you know, at the expense of something like this can happen. Now this happened a year, two years ago, a bird kind of didn't make the media. Someone went in there and decapitated the bird. So that was two years ago. So now now this next incident, like these are, you know, these are real serious things. I feel anyway. This is a beautiful pink flamingo. I'm an animal person. I love like, you know, anything like this, the elephant poachers. And I want to go after them all. I want to poach them. I want to pull their heads off them. I mean, you know, like, I'm an animal person. They need someone to stick up for them and speak up for them and, you know, animal person. It also, it also just like it's not, it's not only about animals.

12:22It's just about this, this sense that you as a human being feel like you have the right to just destroy whatever's in your midst. Social media. The guy filmed the results, he denied it, but he filmed it for social media. And that probably got him in a lot of trouble. Part of it. Yep. Well, may he be prosecuted to the full extent of the law? Yes. And more and more. I will come back. I've got to talk about March. This March madness of weather. Oh, can I try to induce people to come to Vegas?

If the player goes out in the first half, you get your money back on Props bet on prop bets. It made betting on props a lot more profitable this year. Well, Lance, those of us who have bets since the dawn of time, we find this new cultural development somewhat off putting. You agree? Yeah. So Profit X has this too. Is that what he's saying? No, no, this had nothing to his tweet had nothing to do with Profit X. Oh, okay. So so was it. Is he cash out? Collin Moore, Collin. What he's referring to is early, by the way, weather coming into the.

15:33I got you the player's championship. Collin Moore, Collin played one whole this morning. Yeah, then he pulled out with a back injury. Okay. So immediately, right? The new culture of betting is everybody rushes on Twitter. Where's my refund? Is who's going to refund this? Right? As opposed to, hey, he started. He played a whole it's over. Why do you get a refund? Because I used to look for edges of guys that I knew that we're going to play. Exactly one or two holes just for a sponsorship commitment or something and bet against them. That's correct. Am I back at canceled now? That's exactly right. So these books ever since legalization, right? As you know, okay, part of their marketing. Approach. Oh, for props or something has been to give refunds when this kind of thing happens. Trying to out benevolent their competition. Okay. Look how benevolent we are. Right. We're giving you back your money. We're that awesome. Right. So people are just. So now people now people who have never lived or bet in a previous time period, expect these refunds. Okay. And they get indignant when they don't get them. Not to say that Lance S is, but I'm just saying. Yeah, it's become an expectation. So anyway, the May at Coach May 17 love the Sawbuck usage ever heard of a hundred called a Cecil. Yes.

16:46Absolutely. That guy's that guy's from these coasties from like somewhere on the East Coast. Yeah. Sure. I haven't heard that in a long time though. I have not said that to you. What's the guy's name? The May coach may 17. Oh, Cecil. Absolutely. Rob Graham as a Canadian. That guy who did that disrespectful and disgusting act. Unfortunately, there are some people in this. I hope he gets maximum charge and sentence possible. I got most of that in P.A.W. My old man did the handkerchief thing to back pocket of pants though. Oh, the memories. Oh, I'm glad. Thank you. B.A.W. It's not just me. His old man did it to back pocket. Wow. My dad just put it in the front. Wow. So gross. Yeah. Yeah. I never heard of the front pocket. Hey, I want to mention this because Vison has been on air since 2017 February of 2017. So we've been on air for nine years. So we've been through nine. This is our this is our 10th March. Man. Unbelievable. This is our 10th March madness. Ever since, and this is nothing to do with Vison, but I'm just using that time period in my head. Before this time period, these last 10 years, my buddies from DC used to come, Mimi. I used to live in California. We would meet in Vegas from March.

17:53And the weather was always spectacular. You could go to the pool. Yep. Ever since 2017 on climate change, whatever. It has been really cool here. Temperature. Yes. Windy cold. Yes. Go to the pool. None of these years that I can remember in the last nine years. Now on this 10th year. First of all, today, yesterday, the day before the weather is pristine. But by next week, it is going to be 95 every day. Every day for March madness. This has, but so my buddy at DC was like, I don't, he's like, guilt. Do you ever remember it being this way? I was like, never. And you know what? It's a record. It has never been like this for March madness. So if you are, if you're considering coming to Vegas, the weather will cooperate. If you love hot temperatures, the pool weather is absolutely in effect. You know, a couple of weeks ago, we talked about this. I said years ago. Yeah. You used to put your towel at the pool, go in and put in, you know, procure a chair in the book for the whole day. We started charging, but you're right. The last decade. Yeah. You can't do that. It can't go outside. It's just, and you can't, by the way, you can't get a free chair either. You can't get a free chair.

18:59You can't get a, you know, there's no pools involved. And now it's going to be unbelievable. It's going to be 85 rest of this week. Yeah. And well into the 80s, 85, 88, 90, then 95 all next week. Look at this crowd. This for big day of conference tournaments. Unbelievable crowd. Usually those seats in the back are never taken like that up up at the bar. All the seats taken. And how about the guy with the guy with the dollar? He's got a big gold chain there. Oh, this guy right here. It's a giant gold chain with a money. I said, buddy, I got to take a photo because there's no way you're losing. You can't lose with that thing on. Right. It's very serious locked in with his wife right here. He's actually showing. Yeah. I'm a little, yeah. A little Louisville. Yeah. It's pretty cool. It's conference week is becoming. And I'm talking about not the small conference week last week, but like the power conference week, which we'll call this for conference tournament week. So, so popular each and every week, every, each and every year seems to be more and more popular. Hershendoing, of course, into the big dance next week, which is we talked about Super Bowl Vegas might have lost, lost touch with that.

20:03But because of the weather now, they're never going to lose touch with more sadness. Yeah. An article that said that 1.4 billion dollars that that comes in for Super Bowl, that's bet on a Super Bowl hand or something like that. I read it. I just read it. It was on an article yesterday. And it said three times as many people come into town for this for this event, you know, for the March madness. That first four days because it's four days because it's four days and this year was weird about Super Bowl. We didn't have, we didn't have the people we had previous years, but and I think the difference is there's no all things being equal. Like, oh, you're going to charge me if or everything, you know, completely gouge me and you're and it's still the dead of winter and the weather's not particularly awesome there. As opposed to where I am. Yeah, I'll just stay home. This on the other hand, though, people are still falling out some parts of the country. So I think March madness is still always going to be a thing here. And yesterday I do my podcast with John Orlando. And I said, you know, even the room rates are going to be crazy here for the win $1,000 a night.

21:10Someone comes in and says, you know, I don't like these fabrications. It's only $700. So now I had to say, I had to go on and respond and say, buddy, you're right. It's 700 to 9 March madness. Yeah, it's 899 and 1199 for one night just to come into the plus, by the way, doesn't include your taxes fees and your resort fees. So I get you. But people hold you at your exact word. I told the story about the win. When I had that the soft door clothes and how the win the win casino when someone came in and stole my voucher for over $10,000. Remember, I told you that I had to come to court for it stuff. It was a story, but I've never told my podcast. I'm telling the story. I said, you know, there has to be 15, 20 years, maybe longer. Not and the guy said, well, the win opened in 2005. So you're exaggerating. Okay, I'm sorry. I have my timeline wrong. So people have nothing to do. Did you never have toys when you were a kid? What happened? People are just people are very sick. They are very, very sick. They help you know, but anyway, I just in general though I came in here and I did not expect to see what I see here.

22:16There's a lot of people here, but this is a great week, eight o'clock in the morning. Spectacular tip off to eight in the morning. What a great week. You hear about the guy you hear about the scorpion? No, sir. The scorpion that stung the guy a bark, which by the way, one of the most deadly scorpions. It says it is the most venomous scorpion species in the United States. This is the second one found in a hotel room. Oh, no. The first one was at the Venetian two years ago, which is a solid, a solid place. Yes. Yeah. At the Venetian. This one is at at a downgrade silver sevens. The silver sevens. The so formerly terrible on paradise on paradise, formerly terrible. Terrible. Yes. So he said he was sleeping there and this thing bit him. And he had pain right right away and tense burning pain, muscles, twitching jerking, difficult swallowing and breathing. This is all good for the lawsuit. But what I'm saying is can anyone just bring a scorpion in a room and just say it happens? Is that I'm not saying that happened to this guy, but oh, I see which side.

23:19You know, but he's showing for he's going to be showing for oh, no, I'm sorry. This was the guy at the emotion, emotional trauma. Yes. And you can see where he got stung. Oh, yeah. In the in the as Todd Wichnet would say in the nether regions. Yes. Yes. That's the guy. Yeah. August, 2024, a man sued the Venetian because he claimed he was stung there by a scorpion while sleeping. Wow. Wow. And it's left him with erectile dysfunction. Well, I'm sure it has PTSD and emotional trauma. So anyway, sure it has. It's amazing. If that kind of a that thing looks nasty. Doesn't it though? Oh, they. Yeah. It's in bark scorpion. Arizona bark scorpion. Well, here I heard I was trying to lure people to Vegas with the wonderful temperatures. And then there we go. So watch, watch out for that. Of course, I always bring it up at the hard rock. I there were syringes in between the cushions of the couch in the right in my room that I would get it. Yeah, you know, they have those nice couches every room. Look how what's this double teeth as deep as it could say, what's this? Wow. So there's that also bagging the day. But that's, yeah, that's too bad. I mean, that's unfortunate. Obviously, we're joking. But that's obviously that guy.

24:25We are. Yeah, because that could be a, you know, just it could be deadly. This is one of the most deadly things here. It's a deadly thing. Yeah, I got a, let's go into my 46 page list. Hold that thought as we go to commercial. I can't believe these breaks come so fast here. Well, you know, what are you guys doing all this advertising money? Yeah. God. All right. I don't know. We want me to go and he sent you up the chain. You're going to answer those questions of other people. I'll come back. Bill Crackenberger, unscripted. There's a shot live shot here early in the morning at Circle Resort. You see no sports book, the greatest sports book of them all coming back with crack on a numbers game right here. It is sharp week. It starts selection Sunday, this Sunday, sharp week coming up, sharp analysis on every team, every round, expert picks and projections, bracket, survivor, betting, all covered.

25:26The March, mania betting guide, vason.com slash sharp week. And again, shout out to Rob Marano for all the, all the clever graphics, like flash across our screen. Get it sharp week, not sharp week, sharp week. But we do have the shark fin right in between there, posing as a letter A. I'm looking forward to that. We get tweets, beating the book. This is from Daniel Mcdonald at Golden State Dan, he says, a Gil, my dad still uses a handkerchief. Absolutely disgusting. Has to be one of the most unhygienic things still in existence. Yeah, man, it's for show. What are we doing? What are we doing, blowing our nose and those things? Chris of St. Bartz. Am I the only guy walking around Disney World, listening to Gill and crack betting tennis and hoops? Yes. I love that. I love it. Yes, you are. Wow. Thank you for that. Two drinks in. Why can't people take their losses like adults, so upsetting that we as a culture are rewarding the screaming childish tantrums in the end. It hurts us all. I like that. Excellent tweets, sir. David Shalaphore. Yo, I was already sad that I had to cancel my trip out there next week due to a fractured scapula, but this weather report is added to my misery. I'm sorry, David. I'm sorry about that, man. Didn't know you had the fractured scapula. Justin G here in Phoenix is going to be 105 next Thursday and Friday. Thank God, I'll be in the mountains. Yeah, if you think Vegas is hot, just go to Phoenix. It's incredible. Brad Magnus. My grandpa did the same thing with his hanky. I could picture him now sitting on the Davenport Blown as nose and

26:49stuffing it right back at his shirt pocket. It's so. Thank you guys for tweeting. It's not just my dad. Ryan Hyatt. Great. Now we're going to have to put up with the scorpion surcharge when visiting Vegas. Thanks for the heads up, crack. Yeah. Jason H 11. Leave it to crack to one up wish. Neve talking about Tuchus and spictors with his scorpion bites of the nether regions. Love you, crack man. Real nicks. Crack is questioning if the guy brought in his own scorpion. He says on a lesser note, I have a buddy who used to purposely cut himself. Shaving, then wipe the blood all over the bathroom. He'd complain to management so we could get a free upgrade to a better room. No joke. Oh, what a sick human. A sick. People are sick. Like think about he's spreading his own blood around the rooms. I got it upgrade. Think get it upgrade. Yeah, I'm a cut myself. Oh, my God. Jesus. Matt Trudell. Uh-huh. He said, I'll tell you, Gil on the tennis and crack on the hoops. You guys certainly won't be hired by the Las Vegas tourism committee anytime with the needle and scorpion comments. I was trying.

27:49Yeah, to go scorpion. Serious, though, man. Let's hope that's not a thing. Sure. Isolated incidents. You remember, I told you the friend that if he lost, he got so upset. And talk about a sick guy knock around guy. I mean, just a sick human. He came to a wedding city all the time when he stayed overnight. He came with his own chisel. And he if stuff was on the walls, if he lost, it was going. Like he would take the artwork off the walls. Oh, my God. In the room. And if he knew about certain rooms, certain things that he thought were real valuable, he would actually go to like Walmart and get something cheaper. Take the good one off and hang up the cheaper one. I hope they wouldn't notice it was him. There was no people are if he lost, if he wanted left alone. Oh, that's nice of him. Yeah. No, I'm very saying I'm not. This is a true story, too. Yeah, he's out there. He's probably listening to it. It's so funny. Like the things people have in their head. Like that guy is that's his thing. The guy with the shaving and the blood. That's his that's sick.

28:51That's ridiculous. So Alan Boston coming in next week, by the way. Coming in next weekend, where he's going to do a show with me next Tuesday at the Westgate, please set in my regards. We're having a meet and greet actually after the show at 12 noon for no one wants to meet Alan. What is it? What is it? 12 noon at the Westgate. We're doing my show doing a show next Tuesday. 12 noon at the sports book. 11 a.m. By the way, is there anything more neutral than someone saying send him my regards? That's a neutral thing. I know. Yeah, honestly, like he's coming in next week for March, man. This is like you wouldn't have a mom for a day. I stopped that or a show. Well, if he would, I would. If you agree, not the curse. Well, no, he's already agreed and he still does. Oh, he can't happen. Yeah. I can't do it anymore. Yeah. Oh, okay. I'm sorry. Go ahead with you. No, no. Yeah, because you do. I don't even know. Do you guys have a person back there that he do presses the second, second, second, but I don't want to put the burden on one of our guys behind the glass. But he's okay. Guys, you're going to have to be on real alert on this. Like that's not fair to them. Right. He can't be a normal human being in a curse. Yeah.

29:58You know, like I noticed myself on the past 12 months, cursing, not here, of course, but I never curse on shows. I don't think it's a good look. No, I don't either. But on my podcast, if I get upset on the podcast, I do. Yeah. All curse. Yeah. Like the flamingo guy, I cursed all over him. Yeah. Um, so Gil, I have this mean greet for with Alan with Alan. By the way, who let me just say this, regardless of all that, Alan Boston legend in the industry, iconic figure, fascinating individual. Yes. All of that is true. Yes. Yeah. Um, highly intellectual, but maybe doesn't have the social skills, perhaps that some, but that's, that's, you give and take on certain things. Yes, you do. Um, and anyway, so that I get, I give and take what's out every day. That's Tuesday. Oh, does Todd not have social skill. Oh, he does. I'm just messing with them because I want to get him mad. So he'll tell me, I can't believe you said that about me earlier today. I wanted to say that. Oh, damn. I shouldn't have. Okay. So tomorrow, what is the Alan Boston meet and greet next week? Next Tuesday at the Westgate at noon. Okay. At noon in the sports book. And if you want to listen to the show, it's 11 o'clock. Okay.

31:02So 11 o'clock. We'll do a show. Should be a fun show. It's going to be his breakdown of every single game. It's huge. Uh, for, you know, Thursday and Friday's games, it's, it's actually going to be a really informative show. He's spectacularly thorough with that stuff. He's very thorough. I'm sure I'll have Wednesday's games in there too. So, um, yeah, maybe the plans or whatever may be at night, whatever it might, maybe I'll have, uh, you know, good, good breakdowns. Just just to listen to what'll be out that night on video. If you can case, you guys are, um, interesting. It'll be out on video that night. I'm sure Tuesday night will have it out on YouTube. So you just, just Google Alan Boston's name, my name, and, and you'll come up with that, uh, I say Google YouTube on YouTube, the search engine. So, Gil, I hadn't, I want to say almost an, uh, yeah, impenetrable. I had this wall up, but you couldn't get to me about certain thing. I'm not going to lose no money, no more trusting people. I said to myself a couple of years ago. So, uh, I won't take accounts off people. I won't, because like, you know, everyone says, oh, yeah, but my guy, my guy's the greatest. He pays.

32:11Of course he pays. You lose. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but of course he pays you when you win. You're, you're going to be a cash register by the end of the year. And so I've just, uh, I'm not, I'm not, and, and you know what, I, I believe in Spanky's way more and more every year goes on. And what, what I mean is Spanky goes on to his Twitter and, and I think Chinese Mike goes on to Twitter and says, if you want to have partner, I don't know what they call it partner accounts with us. You can give us the accounts and give us at the positive. So you're going to give us your, you're going to give us the account and give us post up money, because we're going to beat your outs. You know who I am. You, I don't know who you are. Basically, I get it. I get it. Uh, I get what they do. I don't do that. But I do get it. It, it, uh, it's just such a treacherous is the word treachery. If I had to do a book, did something, it had been treachery. Of course, of course, treachery, total treachery. So what? Um, just three different guys that I know, um, all guys that are, I know a guy, one of the biggest movers in the game, one of the biggest movers. If you want a hundred thousand down, he'll get you a hundred thousand down on Superbowl or a big event.

33:26It's amazing. All three of this, there's two other guys been around for 30 years. One guy from Curacao for 30 years ago, um, another guy that I know that's one of the best originators in the world. They all have one thing in common. Oh, no, they're all broke. I mean, it's hard to believe. It's hard to believe that you can have leaks in other areas. So bad. You know, wouldn't you want this, wouldn't you want this great deal. Wouldn't you want to deal year round with someone like Bill Crackenberger or someone that wins. I'm not, this, by the way, this people better than me out there that are, I'm going to win by the end of the year. But, you know, at the end of the year, it's going to be a win every year. But wouldn't you want to deal with someone and get every game old, how about my NFL props that won like 60 units this year. I mean, every, wouldn't you want every single thing from someone to college baseball. I do a lot of things that are real, really good. And wouldn't you want that stuff year round? Why would you jump over a hundred dollar bill and steal a dollar. I'll always say that. It just happened to me again with someone that I thought that I really knew and that's super good.

34:36We were doing, I know him for so long. And here's the thing. I trusted the guy for more amounts of money than I just got screwed out of. So I've trusted him out of double that amount of money. Actually, already you, you're only as good until your last payment. What do you say? What do you say to you? Uh, he said, I'll use the word. Yeah. Crack. I can't believe I relapsed. I said to him. What's relapsed mean? I took like that. Isn't that a narcotic or a drug addiction relapsed? Is there gambling relapses? I guess there is. Or a cancer diagnosis or something. Yeah, reserve for that. I actually said, what, what's relapsed mean? Like I, what did you have a gambling problem? Like, like you relapsed. He goes, ah, man, I know we were making some money together and we made a lot of money together. Actually, and I gave him a free roll, too. I said, yeah, he's a free roll for you. You know, you make yourself like, he made himself like nine grand in 12 weeks. Not that's not so what's the relapses to not paying his debts to you? Didn't pay none of the winnings none of the, I actually gave him money. Actually gave him some post up money.

35:40I say, put here, here's some money. I want to, you know, because he was saying like, not that he was down and out, but any chance you can make something you can make some money with me. And sure enough, I said, yeah, let's make some money together. I've known you for years. We made money over the years. I haven't seen you in some of your money years. And, uh, just again, I'm a victim of being a relapsed or whatever it is. Jesus, crack man, unscripted more on the other side numbers. You're having a good time. You're out drinking with the boys.

B. Widamoyer. Whitey says, yes, my dad did the same thing, but he put the hanky in his back pocket. Sweet Lou Monaco. Did you guys read that Monmouth Park is seeking a casino license? Yes. Will it ever happen? He says, will it ever happen with it?

37:52Well, with Atlantic City throwing their two cents in happy, mom, park, beautiful, mom, park, trying to get a casino there. Happy madness to you as well, sweet, Lou. Let's see J. Rod. I cannot tell you how much I love that Todd wish to have discord general chat is also the ANG chat. Oh, I don't know. Oh, see, they do see what happens. Todd's discord chat. They tell him whatever I'm saying here. Oh, that's fussing on him. Yes. I think that's what he means. I don't know. It's a by the way, Todd Todd is in here yesterday. This is not exactly what you were talking about, but he came in the show. It was three and oh in the hour he was here. He had a three and oh. Wow. People, people wonder how did he get to 170 units? That can't be true. He was three and oh in an hour yesterday. So you kind of get it now. I hope, um, but he doesn't come in the package that some people want the package to be. And therefore they judge him before even knowing him. They think things. He only can't possibly be this smart. And he's all those things he's smart.

38:54He's hilarious. He's great at what he does. And I just find I just find it fascinating that the way that human brains work. Sometimes people just will not allow themselves to believe or to accept the prowess of somebody else. If it's not in the package that they think it should be. Wow. Well, I mean, what do they expect? They wanted to look at for Scott Van Pelt and these guys. What are they looking for? Yeah. I'm those. I know. I'm just telling you, drives me crazy. Eric Cheshire. When I was a kid, I remember my dad handing me his handkerchief to blow my nose. No, thanks, dad. Just gross. Yeah. What did my dad do? Did he put? Did he wash it? No. He probably by my mom probably took it out of the suit. Oh, that's gross. Sure. Scotty, leisure suit, Kobe. Gilly got to think glass half full mentality using a handkerchief as a tissue isn't bad. That was common. Somewhere there is someone complaining their grandpa use the handkerchief as when the toilet paper roll runs out. Let me just say we've evolved. Kind of gross. Fairway Fred just text me. Listening about the flamingos put me in a terrible mood. Pull the guys arm off.

39:59I can't forgive hurting other. Oh, I can. Yeah, he's right. Adults for some reason. I see these videos or something. Someone will send me. I really don't read Twitter a lot unless someone sends me something or tags me. I could see these fights in the street. I think they're stupid. These airplanes stuff that's going on the last year, especially the last couple of weeks. It's stupid, but I don't think nothing about an innocent harmless harm, you know, an animal that has no self-protection. I have to get in. Thank you, Fred. Chris Valica texting about who she who cut himself shaving and spread it around the bathroom. He says, wow. That's next level. That's easy. He's very impressed by that strategy. Did you see the next text you said after that? What do you say? He wants Boston. He said, I want Boston on, you know, if I promised to, you know, I'll touch you off here. These guys, these guys murdered me all the time. Yeah. Yeah. Like I would like to have a mom, but you're right. If he curses, I'm the one that will feel responsible. Chris. He's just messing. I do not happen to have a boss. I love all of Boston. He just has to get threatened our license. It's a problem.

41:06Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Well, you can watch my podcast. You can watch them curse. There you go. Next week. You need your question, Phil. You know, for gambling, someone someone just text me on Twitter. I just sent a text to me and he's right. I have said this in the past. If you're gambling and the win doesn't do to you, it, all right. I'm happy. I'm when I'm supposed to win, but the loss affects you. That means you are betting too much. In other words, if the loss affects you more than the win, it's like you. I need, I need, I need education. Yeah. I'm a streak guy. Yeah. That's the proper words. Yeah. The loss. If the loss affects you more than the win excites you more than the win excites you. Yeah. He's right. That's interesting. But also correct. I am with you, my friend. That said, this I'm not going to say his name is not often what it said. So doctors, lawyers, gambling hosts, sports radio hosts, gaming podcasters, lots of them are dead broke from gambling. Yes.

42:06So it's all walks of life. What are you trying to say? You know, it's not just the people I know for years that know better. Just think about that. If I'm around guys, I mentioned before three different guys that are broke. And it's not a shame to be broke. It's a shame to say broke. Roxy Roxboro said it many times that he went broke many times. Yeah. Sure. Sure. I have been broke. Absolutely. But that's why I had that, you know, that like I said, that wall I put up that I just wasn't going to take chances when I'm in anymore. It's just it's a treacherous business still. And it just reminds me how treacherous it is when you have guys in the space that know. And this particular person that I was dealing with here said, this is unbelievable. This is this stuff that you have this is really good. I've been dealing with people here. This stuff is unbelievable. This was just NFL props we're talking about. And for him to come up lame, it was such an, you know, I have to tell you, it's not even about the money.

43:12It's just that the years relationship with someone you say to yourself, how do I let this happen? But how did this guy even do something like this? You know, we're going to make so much money together down the line in the future. We have made money. How do you do this? So how do you do this? I don't think you really articulated it. So it wasn't that he just chose not to pay you back. He lost it lost the money. He lost it all. Yeah, I told you, what was the word he used to use somewhere? I realized he relapsed. Yeah. And I had to ask one. I didn't realize what real happened. I don't realize I thought it was drinking or something. Relapsed. Relapsed gambling. What's that mean? I mean, you can. Yeah. I guess you can. You can. Sure you can. Yeah. You have a problem. He relapsed. I mean, it's just it's so amazing. The different hurdles you have to get over in life in this gambling business. What I'm trying to say is if guys that are in the know that have been around this that realize this stuff stuff so good. What changed does Joe public have laying 11 to 10 that famous sign Bob Martin's office used to go into his into as well. No, it's the office in his house. I've said this on this program before. You walked into his office and a big plaque 11 to 10 built all this. Yeah. It's true.

44:20Bob Martin, who is the Babe Ruth of Las Vegas, he used to individually make the line for everything. Yes. Everybody used in Las Vegas. That's exactly right. But it gets back to where we started this, which was with the Colin Moorakawa pull out after one whole of the players championship. By the way, Tommy Fleetwood and Matt Verick McNeely with both five under two stroke lead over Victor Hovelin right now at the players championship first round. But it gets back to the refund stuff we were talking about. It's not just about all these kids. I'll expect the refund. What it is is getting back to your thing about it. What is Joe public? What does the chances Joe public have to do it? The fact is it's these predatory organizations, right? These books. People say it's an industry and it's a bunch of think about it like this as companies who are trying to separate you from your money. And when they do things like, yeah, we'll give you a refund. It's just marketing to induce you to be with them as opposed to being with their competition.

45:24So it's all it's still it all is directly aligned from the greed of, you know, the corporate greed of this is what they're in business for, right? You're in Wall Street to make money. There's no benevolence to it. Let's be honest. And they're in it to make money. And so that's why you shouldn't be fooled by tactics like this. Very good. Very good. Guys, I know we're coming to the end of the segment right here already. Listen, you're going to come in town. Just please. I'm not going to be until next Thursday again with you guys. Take it easy. Don't get caught up and you have to make a bet on every game. You have to go crazy and, you know, just this indulgence. Oh, my God. You know, and people come to town from March, man, it's it's gambling, partying, cabaretting, gourmet meals, bruts. Take it easy. Please bankroll management. Try to have some fun this year. Alan Boston, yet a fifth game if anyone watch it. Oh, there we go. It didn't start right the Duke game. Duke, he said that Duke's going to have the number one seed, no matter what. They really, they really shouldn't even be playing all out in this game.

46:28So he likes the points in FSU plus the points. FSU plus the points. It's now it went to 17. It was 16, 16 to half. Seven full 17. That that might be a good side for you, but I hate betting these big dogs. I just hate it. But I'm gonna apply it. You see Air Force yesterday speaking of big dogs. Yeah, it was like 31 to four at one point, something like that. So yeah, good, good advice. Good PSA to close that with March, man. It's bonus. But the weather here will be spectacular. It will be beautiful. Yeah. No, it's going to be a great weekend. You can you you stay in town a weekend, too, and I'll go stand in town a week. Yes, sir. Good. Yeah, wait, wait.
