 Right now It is my pleasure to announce we are joined by an esteemed partner of ours at fan toll Halva gambler follow all of her stuff on all of her socials at Aaron K. Dolan. Welcome to hammer down. How are you today? Great. How are you? Thank you so much for having me on. Hey, it is our pleasure and I don't want to start this off on a bad note and I know it's not your fault, but Will you talk to somebody over there at our partner Fandall? Sportsbook that we none of us got invited to Denver for the Fandall fan. Oh Yeah, that was a little bit too much fun. I know hopefully we'll be having we're having more in the future So we'll have to get you guys on the invitee list. It looked incredible. I know it's not your fault But I was severely good word though. Thank you. I appreciate it. Some of us were severely disappointed How's your time at Fandall been? It's been so much fun. I started in January So unfortunately, I didn't get to do all of last football season with them But this season we're gearing up so everything's been a lot of fun. You guys have a much cooler studio I'll say those you can see I saw my key is stuff working from home. So everything's been good though I absolutely love working. No, no, your studio looks great. Our studio is pretty cool though I appreciate the compliment jealous So are you you just talked about football season? Are you? Like as NFL what you're focusing on most right now Yeah, for sure I mean, obviously we have college football going on But I've come to the realization that you just can't be a good better and everything so you got to hone in So I feel like NFL and NBA are my two things that I love to bet on. Hey, that's very very good advice We normally ask people when they come on here what their advice is and what we always say is bet on what you know Is most likely the best idea? So so for this upcoming NFL season NFL week one a whole are you have you done a bunch of a futures bets? So I have like futures bets in mind that I would be placing Okay, general I stay away from futures bets just because I don't want to tie up my money because I'd rather just bet every single game If I get on Sunday But I guess you could do both but if I was good about anybody it definitely be the Packers 12 to 1 Okay, I think they're gonna be able to get it done this season finally I feel bad for Aaron Rodgers. He's got all these issues going on Of course in this offseason with all the drama, but hold Bonte Adams back And I feel like they still have all the pieces he obviously played unbelievable last year as long as they just don't Up to kick a field goal will be exactly. I agree Aaron's a big Big friend of this office and I think most of the people in this office agree with that Maybe if not Tom then Aaron for sure definitely Does that mean you're going with Aaron then for MVP back-to-back or no No, no, no, I actually have a dark horse and I I said this out loud to people at Fandall and they were like Aaron I don't know about this. I feel like we shouldn't broadcast this and I was like no we are I want to go with Baker Mayfield It's a dark horse 26 to 1. I know it's it's a long shot there But I think considering how well you played last season I know he's had ups and downs in his career, but I like the value there And I think if he has a great regular season he could absolutely win I don't know if when we call people you could see me or you see yourself. I can see you Yeah, so No, no, I'm kidding. I actually Took the browns. I like to separate my fandom from my bedding. I don't Need it. Hey our producer mitt. He doesn't either and I respect him No, I don't respect him at all, but I respect you doing it Are you are you from Philly then do you take the Eagles all the time or no? Yeah, well, I'm from Philly, but I'm smart enough to not bet on Philly teams Like I just stay away from them, but like I'm going to be that type of fan like I would never bet on the Cowboys I like that. Yeah, I like that a lot even though like I just said mitt is a huge Cowboys fan But he's also a Yankees fan He's not a real fan. He's also a Yankees fan and a Lakers fan, so he's the worst human on the earth People can go and like like different teams from different areas. I feel like where you're from It's just like you're born into it. And that's just the cards you drew I agree, but his dad's a coach and he's moved around a bunch of areas, so we give him a break But what I was talking about I did take the Browns to win the AFC North I put my I put my fandom aside. I don't like the Ravens this year And I'm not gonna jinx the Steelers. I refuse to do that Do you have do you did you also take them if you like Baker to win the MVP? Do you like them to win the North? Yeah, for sure a plus 155 I would definitely take them. I'm on the same bandwagon with you I think the Ravens are finally gonna see regression I feel like Blumar Jackson has not proven to us that he can do anything in the bow season But despite all that I do think the Browns just given I mean you have cream hunt Nick Chubb Odell Beckham juniors coming back their coach has been great obviously With Baker Mayfield, so I feel like you can definitely bet into that market still compared to some of the other divisions And a plus 155 I feel like you should take that now also given the Browns of one of the easiest schedules based on wind totals So that helps them they do I may even now that I'm thinking about it since they have the chiefs week one and potentially lose to the chiefs week one Those odds may even get better After actually after week one, so I'm just I'm just sorry. I'm just thinking out loud I may potentially wait until after week one and do that. Thanks for that That's the thing with futures. I feel like you do have to wait some of this out. Yeah, absolutely like and I thank you for putting that in my head I appreciate that Speaking of your Eagles and the NFC East did you take a division pick on that one since you're familiar with it? So I almost feel that since it's so unpredictable and I can't I can't come on here and say take the Eagles I don't have a specific pick I'm more interested to see what you would take just because the odds are so long right now I would never bet on the Cowboys. I don't think the Washington football team will get it done again No team has won back to back regional title since 2004 I don't see the Washington football team being able to do that But then again granted you only needed seven wins to win last season and then I'm out on the Giants so I honestly feel like given the Eagles have the longest odds as A better and also as a fan in a way I feel like I would take them just for fun, but I was interested to see what you would do in this market. So I Know the stat. I know that no team has won back-to-back years and in all of those years I don't trust the Cowboys at all. I don't part of me doesn't trust Dax Not only I like Dak I don't know if I trust him to stay healthy and their defense was the worst last year So we'll see how that goes. I'm not gonna take the Eagles yet. I Don't trust Daniel Dimes and the New York football Giants. They've looked like shit so far So I I did lay a little bit on the Washington football team to potentially that You think Brian Fitzpatrick's gonna get it done. Listen, uh, it's not so much Ryan Fitzpatrick because Everybody loves Fitz magic. We I do too as someone in the bearded community But I think it's more of the defense I think that I think I love their defense. So in that division a Lot of tight games. I think Fitz magic will do enough. So I was thinking about the Washington football team there Were you doing did you do any other division winners or anything like that? The only other one I feel like you can bet in is the AFC South which to me I would definitely go with the Titans minus 110 right now I just think that I can't bet ever bet on the Colts because I'm such a Carson ones hater And I know that other people on the show are very Excited about the Colts always But yeah, I just I cannot get behind the Colts. Listen, I also I didn't take the Colts either I also took the Titans just because We know who the Titans are and we have no idea if Carson Wentz We have no idea if you can be good. I have an idea. Well, no, I know you have But I'm saying there's a chance that he's still that guy. There's a there's a chance that he never goes back to 2017 and if the Titans start winning it's going to be like minus 150 after week one same eyes We'll take a minus one very very true Colts have Seattle I believe week one at home and they've had a bunch of issues and stuff like that Have you started looking at week one at all? Yeah, so obviously the first game we have to bet on so I'm gonna take bucks minus seven and a half and that line keeps Moving out so I don't even care if I lose this bet I just will never bet on the Cowboys especially in the season opener Other than that one of my favorites That I like is the San Francisco 49ers minus seven and a half Against Detroit that line also moving out But I absolutely think they blow this team out and I hate taking favorites So the other underdogs that I have which are a little controversial The Dauphins money line beat them in Fox Barrow beat the Patriots Okay, and then the Bengals to beat the Vikings at home Okay, and I love that your Philly accent came out a little bit there did it I try to hide Fox Barrow got you Fox Barrow. Yeah, sorry. No, no, it's fine So you could you think you could trust Joey Barrow week one Yes, I do the Vikings play so well at home and considering they're going on the road And I just feel like the first two weeks betting NFL is so difficult So you might as well just take some of the underdogs when you can especially when it's a short line anyways EKD, can I call you EKD? Yeah, a lot of people call me that. Okay, cool. It's just easier I think we could be friends because I'm also I'd also love taking the puppies and I like taking unders A lot of people have problems with the under. Do you have a problem with the under? I? Don't have a problem with the under but just in general I stay away from totals when I I mean It's just like not fun like you want to bet the over but then if you go to the under You're just you don't seem fun and then if it doesn't hit it's just I feel like it's so 50-50 on those That it's not fun for me. I won't take that as a shot at me. That's fine Hey Can't thank you enough for coming on Please make sure you tell those people over there to invite us to the next fan fest Good luck this weekend. You doing any college? Are you taking any college at all?
