00:00:00.000 On the biggest stage in the world, FanDuel is changing the game
00:00:04.120 because sometimes your player gets subbed off and your bet goes with them.
00:00:07.520 Not anymore.
00:00:08.480 With FanDuel's Super Sub, if your player's subbed out, your bet stays in.
00:00:12.820 That's right.
00:00:13.380 If your player leaves the match, your bet continues on with the substitute,
00:00:17.560 so you're still in it until the final whistle.

00:01:05.300 This is the 77
00:01:07.140 WABC Minicast.
00:01:10.700 Kevin in Long Beach,
00:01:11.880 what's up, sir?
00:01:13.640 Hey, Ed, how are you?
00:01:15.040 Oi!
00:01:16.940 Now, Zora, isn't that the name 1.00
00:01:19.780 of the supervillain
00:01:21.980 that Christopher Walken played?
00:01:23.420 Bond villain in A Few to a Kill, wasn't that Zoran?
00:01:26.420 With the blimp, right?
00:01:27.500 He had the blimp.
00:01:29.440 I think it's the machine that Tom Hanks used in Big.
00:01:33.380 That's it.
00:01:34.260 That's it.
00:01:34.900 Yeah, that was that right playhead, by the way.
00:01:37.440 Yeah, yeah.
00:01:39.180 I read that most of Zoran's guys, people that voted for him,
00:01:45.120 were all college educated,
00:01:47.240 which is an idea of what's going on in the colleges nowadays.
00:01:51.280 They're indoctrinating.
00:01:52.780 They're indoctrination centers.
00:01:54.260 They're the old Mila's post-fund babies. 0.99
00:01:56.360 Yeah, they're not smart. 0.94
00:01:59.240 Yeah, they just want to sit back and watch the world burn.
00:02:01.640 That's what they want to do.
00:02:02.740 Yeah, they talk about educated.
00:02:04.700 Being educated doesn't mean you're smart.
00:02:08.700 It doesn't mean you have common sense.
00:02:10.080 It doesn't mean you have the ability to rationally figure something out based on facts.
00:02:16.100 It means you went in to the front door of a college or an institution of higher learning.
00:02:23.280 You were inundated with propaganda, nonsense, and you were indoctrinated, spit out the other end with a diploma in your hand.
00:02:33.380 And this delusion that you were somehow smarter than people that didn't go that route.
00:02:42.560 And that's one of the biggest lies that I think young people have bought into over the course of the years, that going to college will make you a smart person.
00:02:55.200 They look down on people that didn't go to college and look at them like they're less intelligent, not as smart, and don't have the ability to take facts and reason it out in your head and come to a rational conclusion.
00:03:14.020 But the opposite is the actual fact. 1.00
00:03:17.540 They are stupid. 1.00
00:03:18.780 They're easily influenced, brainwashed. 1.00
00:03:21.880 They're very malleable in their beliefs.
00:03:23.920 And it's blatantly obvious that they are the ones making some of the worst decisions in the history of this country.
00:03:35.540 That's right. And, you know, he wants to give away all of this stuff.
00:03:38.760 And meanwhile, the two percent of the population in New York that pays all the taxes are going to be leaving in groves.
00:03:47.040 Then where are you going to get the money from?
00:03:48.960 Well, Kevin, I don't know if you've heard, Kevin, another one of Ma'am Danny's plans is that even if you leave New York City, if you still do business with the city, you will be taxed a city tax.
00:04:07.920 So and I'm like, I left. I went to South Carolina. I have a company, an LLC. I work here in New York City for this very radio station. And am I now going to be obligated to fork over money so homeless can stink up free buses?
00:04:32.940 uh hell no hell no i would sooner sooner evade my new york city taxes than pay this uh idiot 0.99
00:04:42.600 uh out of my money because i left new york i left and anyone else that leaves shouldn't 0.99
00:04:48.300 be obligated to give one more dime to this city that's right and i listen nobody pays to go on 0.78
00:04:57.400 the bus in the subway anymore i mean that's the big joke of it all yep only just suckers like us 0.92
00:05:03.600 suckers and that's why they're they broke they they can't maintain the system uh yeah they they 0.71
00:05:11.540 and they just let people get away with uh not paying and uh it's been very very bad for the 0.94
00:05:18.140 city yep thank you uh kevin appreciate the call a couple of other things going on that we can talk
00:05:26.260 about the breaking news there i guess in northern idaho there was a fire that was set by somebody
00:05:33.340 who then pulled out a sniper rifle and started shooting at the firefighters and the cops that
00:05:39.040 showed up um just terrible i don't know who does this uh we all wait you know that's the saddest
00:05:46.220 part of of when things like this happen in this country these days we all sit and and scroll on
00:05:54.160 our phones and wait to see who did it and by who you don't care who the person is you want to know
00:06:00.640 the race the sexuality uh whatever it may be religion that's what we need to know so we can
00:06:09.360 start spouting our uh hate and and uh saying that this is a problem and i'm guilty of it i do it all
00:06:17.220 the time my my guess on this one is one of these mental patient environmentalists who um because
00:06:26.340 they've been known to set fires and uh it's called environmental terrorism and if you're starting
00:06:33.560 fires and then shooting at the people that show up especially firefighters i mean it's no better
00:06:39.480 if it's a cop that you're shooting at it's it's pretty bad but uh these firefighters man what 0.99
00:06:45.240 What are they doing that they deserve to be shot at and killed? 0.99
00:06:52.260 It's terrible. 0.99
00:06:53.200 I don't know what the casualties are yet, but just a terrible scenario there in northern Idaho. 0.71
00:07:00.900 I hope they have the resources like Russia, where they could just send a drone, maybe a little night vision, a little infrared, and find this guy and then just drive an explosive right into him.
00:07:18.880 I don't know why we're so compelled to take these people alive and they'll face justice.
00:07:26.700 Someone like this that's going to start a fire, an emergency, and firefighters come in and you shoot at them, they don't deserve due process.
00:07:37.220 Part of the due process is you might get killed doing this.
00:07:42.940 That's part of due process.
00:07:45.200 If you're in a position where you're threatening people with a sniper rifle like this and a drone can spot you, yeah, grenade, drone.
00:07:56.700 Problem solved.
00:07:58.680 And then we're done.
00:08:00.880 We're done with them.
00:08:01.880 That would be nice.
00:08:02.400 So that's a terrible thing going on right now.
00:08:04.560 When you travel well, your KLM Royal Dutch Airlines ticket takes you to more than just your destination.
00:08:11.420 It takes you to winding streets, spontaneous detours, and the realization that neither of you is actually good with directions.
00:08:20.460 And when the final shortcut taken isn't exactly short.
00:08:24.560 short. Welcome aboard KLM Royal Dutch. Our crew is here to give you a trip home that goes just as
00:08:30.220 planned. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines. When you travel, travel well. A safer Ontario means more police and
00:08:37.720 prosecutors making sure my car doesn't get stolen. It means building new jails to keep criminals
00:08:42.940 behind bars. And it means there's no need to worry when I play at the park. We're making every corner
00:08:48.960 of Ontario Safer
00:08:49.980 to make all of Ontario safer.
00:08:52.300 That's how we protect Ontario.
00:08:54.320 For all of us.
