Summary

Sal is beyond frustrated for Jacob DeGrom (2-2) as he suffers another tough loss because the Mets gave him little support (02:00). With the NFL Draft tomorrow night, the Denver Broncos traded for Teddy Bridgewater but the guys still think they may draft another quarterback. Sal and Dave discuss how Justin Fields could drop to a variety of teams and the chances he ends up with the New England Patriots. Dave thinks both the Chargers and Broncos could challenge the KC Chiefs in the AFC West, plus how Patriots fans have turned on Bill Belichick after all he’s done for the franchise (08:00). The guys give some NFL Draft prop bets including Sal liking Rashawn Slater going top ten (-155) and Dave picking a running back to go in the first round which leads to the debate of taking running backs in round one. Sal hopes the Cowboys take Michigan defensive end Kwity Paye, while Dave wants the Steelers to take Tulsa linebacker Zaven Collins if he’s there. Then, does Mikey Meatballs look just like Trevor Lawerence (11:30). In honor of the NFL Draft and the Oscars, Sal, Dave, Jim and Joel draft the best all-time gambling-centric characters from movies. Sal takes issue with Joel’s picks and Jim loosely uses the term gambling (38:00). Steelers offensive lineman Alan Faneca selected Hines Ward to induct him into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, which leads to the question who you would want to be your presenter? Finally, Dave weights in on the best fictional football player of all-time (01:04:00). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:00.0	Welcome to Extra Points.
0:08.1	Now here's your host, Cousin Sal, and his pal, Dave Damacek.
0:15.1	All right, welcome to the Extra Points podcast.
0:17.4	Part of the Extra Points Podcast Network, Cousin Sout, coming to you with my dear,
0:21.7	dear friend, Shaq, Dave Damashick, and also, Joel and Jim, Jim Cunningham, Joel Solomon.
0:29.2	I'm flustered. I really am. It's the eve of the draft. I should be excited, but the Mets,
0:34.4	they did it again. I don't know why it upsets me so, Dave. It really does. I think even more than a Cowboys loss now, when these Mets come out there, the Grom puts his hard on the line and everything else. Again, six innings, one earned run, nine K's, three hits. Sorry, his ERA won from 0.31 to 0.51, so it's actually a bad outing for him. But it doesn't matter because they
0:55.2	don't hit the ball. I'm trying to think like the Cowboys play 16 games or it'll be 17, but 16 and
1:01.7	no more because they don't make the playoffs. DeGrom has what, 30, 31 starts? This is a killer for me.
1:07.1	I hate it. I, listen, I, you know, I'm excited for the NFL draft. I'm excited for the
1:13.3	NFL draft to come and go so that we can focus in on the stretch drives and the two existing
1:19.0	sports with the postseason right there, NBA and NHL, but I'm an empath first, Sal. I'm a human
1:24.8	being. And so my heart goes out to you. I don't get it. Matter of fact,
1:28.0	my heart goes out to Jake DeGrom. This is crazy already. This is not like, boy, this is a nasty snap.
1:35.4	The San Diego Chargers with Phil Rivers under Center feel bad for them at this point. This is
1:40.9	historic. I mean, there are two basic groups of the poxed in sports, the guys that get injured so they don't get the fill the foot, like Gail Sayers or Eric Lindrosse or Lemieux or who anybody else you want to name with that. And but then they're the guys that just can't get over despite their individual greatness, Marino, Jr. Griffey, Ernie Banks.
2:01.0	But this is, this is Trump's different.
2:03.3	Pitchers is different.
2:04.1	Yeah, it's just very different. And I would say there, it's almost got no point where I'm thinking they're doing, the batters are doing this on purpose. But then again, it's not like they're hitting 320 in nondagrom starts, right? You got Frickin Lindor who we, I mean, it's basically Carlos Baerga, we gave
2:18.7	$330 million to and he's 14 for 66. Feel free to boo that guy as much as you want at this point.
2:26.3	My God, I just, you know, our buddy Hensch, right there, your co-star on minus three, he texts
2:32.6	me after the game. We've gotten to a good point 20 years into the friendship.
