Football & Fun Friday: Week 5 - Mr. X & Charch

So that didn't take long. We have our first NBA player suspended "for life" for betting against his own team, and also faking bogus injuries to affect his prop bet totals. Reality is, nobody will care. Rory turns down $850M. Maybe. Caitlyn Clark pay cut? MR X joins me to talk gambling and why bookies "breaking kneecaps" is more Hollywood that reality. Also how he plays season totals in baseball, his record on them, and why sometimes the lines wiggle and jump before pushing off from shore.

Czabe and PAUL CHARCHIAN talk about how knowing what QBs to draft remains such an incredible crapshoot. Czabe gets on record as to which ones will be any good, and the one or two inevitable rubber chickens in the bag. Betting on the draft is becoming big, and Charch has some sweet long shots. Also, he's driving all the way to North Dakota to see Brian Regan in person. MORE . . .

The WNBA had a monster turnout for Caitlyn Clark's induction to the W. But how about the head-turning from these ladies all glammed up on the "Orange" carpet? Donald Rumself once ripped the IRS. Masters podcast feedback. Nitpicking Vern and Nantz's final calls. BRYANT HATCHER joins the fray to talk QBs in the NFL draft, Boban's Free Chicken, John Wayne Bobbitt can't catch a break, and whether he will play all the holes at my golf tournament this year.Our Sponsors:* Check out Tecovas for "first-wear" comfort at Tecovas.com.* Get 25% off your subscription or try the app FREE at Fitbod.me/CZABE* Go to badlandsfood.com/Czabe to get up to 50% off your regular-priced dog food order with a 90-day money-back guarantee with Badlands Ranch Pets.* Need to hire?

Pre-tournament favorite Scottie Scheffler wins the Masters, with a hammer-close on the back nine on Sunday. ANDY POLLIN joins me, and wait til you hear his "casual golf fan" description of why Scottie doesn't do much for him. Also, what's it like to shovel coal into the sports radio steam engine in NYC? Caitlyn Clark slays it on SNL, and more!Our Sponsors:* Check out Tecovas for "first-wear" comfort at Tecovas.com.* Get 25% off your subscription or try the app FREE at Fitbod.me/CZABE* Go to badlandsfood.com/Czabe to get up to 50% off your regular-priced dog food order with a 90-day money-back guarantee with Badlands Ranch Pets.* Need to hire?

Czabe tries a new combination of some of the most loved - and hated - guests in his rotation. CAROL MALONEY and NOTORIOUS J-A-Y. Carol talks about her trip to the Women's Final Four, and her deep Iowa basketball roots. Why the UConn jealousy? Calipari. Curb Your Enthusiasm. Eat the whole menu for $66. Carnivore Diet vs. Vegan.

The eclipse was cool - I guess - for 4 minutes. But man, some people's reactions and takes on the eclipse were just bonkers stupid. I welcome back PAUL CHARCHIAN and explain why I needed a "load management" day. Also, UConn finishes what it's started. Coach Cal gets out of dodge, while strollering his doggo. The country runs on chicken and Wal-Mart. Cicada talk. Charch might drive to North Dakota for a comedy show.

Normally, an undefeated juggernaut that had overcome losing 5 starters from a team that went to the Final Four and lost (to Iowa, no less!) coming back to avenge said loss and then cutting down the nets... would have been "chef's kiss" perfection. Instead, it denied the sports world the ultimate Caitlyn-gasm ending. ANDY POLLIN joins me to discuss. Will Clark be a "wave" or a "tide" that lifts all women's basketball boats? In the men's bracket, UConn beats a fierce Alabama squad as "Mt. Edey" awaits. Dome games suck for hoops. "Who's got the duct tape? I'm out..." plus media musings as Norby gets whacked, and our boy Andrew Siciliano meets "The Turk" at NFL Network. MORE . . .

A shock trade on a Wednesday afternoon in the NFL, as the Bills were desperate to get out of the Stefon Diggs deal for just a 2nd rounder and a giant "dead cap sandwich" to eat. On paper, the Texans look awesome and guest PAUL CHARCHIAN already has a 22-1 SB ticket on Houston for next year. We also talk about Angel Reese wanting it both ways, and the boys nerd out about the latest Leonid and Friends cover of EWF's "Boogie Wonderland."

Czabe welcome back AL GALDI to the pod, to discuss WWE's white-hot run lately both in financials and storylines now that Vince McMahon is buried in legal woes. Also, LSU-Iowa smashes more TV records for the women's game, "it's the ball!" says #InflateGate conspiracy theorists, does DJ Burns have an NFL future?, Big Al is still crushing "dingers", cruise ships do not f around, or you will find out, how's your brackets, and the Florida tide is finally starting to go out again.

Czabe watched his ONE women's game per year last night. And he has questions about the greatest long range bomber the women's game has ever seen. Also, why you can't just say "I don't care about" whatever Caleb Williams is "about" off the field. Finding out just WHO the guy you are making the centerpiece of your NFL franchise requires reading all of the smoke signals. Czabe gets crushed by listeners over mistakes.
