Summary

Valenti and Rico got today's show started with a reaction to the NCAA's investigation into former college basketball players for gambling allegations. They discussed the immorality of sports and prop betting before addressing the exorbitant prices to get into Ford Field to watch the Lions this weekend and whether being outpriced from sporting events is affecting your fandoms. Then, the guys covered a multitude of topics until the final hour, where they put a bow on things while having a conversation about how Lions fans will feel about different outcomes to tonight's Packers-Commanders game.
