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.

00:01:10.880 Rosie got in a little
00:01:12.140 bit of trouble.
00:01:14.140 She went on about the shooter,
00:01:16.780 the trans
00:01:17.800 shooter in Minneapolis.
00:01:20.220 And without knowing
00:01:21.660 anything without any knowledge whatsoever she was gonna let us know who the shooter was
00:01:30.160 she was gonna let us know and obviously she didn't do any research and we found out relatively
00:01:39.960 quickly because uh the news got out very quickly that this was a a transgender uh person that 0.94
00:01:48.160 that perpetrated this awful crime so uh here's rosie talking about who she is positive the
00:01:56.820 shooter is listen to this nonsense so about the minnesota shooting and it brought me right back
00:02:04.240 to columbine in 1999 when i just could not get it through my head that students in america were
00:02:13.240 shooting each other in schools and this was a church inside a catholic school and what do you
00:02:20.820 know was a white guy republican maga person what what do you know white supremacist white supremacist 0.99
00:02:33.540 first of all it's white supremacist white supremacist not white supremacist don't take 0.66
00:02:40.920 the lazy way out give him his due and he wasn't he wasn't maga he wasn't a white supremacist 0.99
00:02:49.380 he certainly wasn't republican he wasn't this was a mental patient transgender 0.99
00:02:56.380 and uh but there was rosie on her little little tiktok with a giant sore on her lip 0.99
00:03:08.000 it's the stress
00:03:10.780 I swear
00:03:12.420 my doctor said the stress
00:03:15.260 gave me a cold sore
00:03:17.160 and that's what this is
00:03:19.080 on my lip
00:03:19.780 really?
00:03:21.820 I swear it wasn't the fact
00:03:24.200 that I have munched on
00:03:26.640 more rancid
00:03:28.960 tuna tacos than anyone
00:03:31.300 in the history 1.00
00:03:33.320 of lesbian Hollywood
00:03:35.380 I wonder
00:03:37.480 who the person was that gave her that i wonder well you know she did apologize i don't have the
00:03:45.720 apology could you maybe grab that up if is that possible to do a back at the studio
00:03:50.120 rosie's apology she didn't curse she'd probably play it right off a um right off the internet i
00:03:57.420 don't know yeah give it a whirl because she apologized for it but even her apology is like
00:04:05.560 backhanded she just can't uh uh just say oh it wasn't i apologize to maga i apologize to any
00:04:14.400 lover that i've passed this herp off to um did you find it oh cool let's listen to rosie's
00:04:22.260 uh lame-ass apology hi everybody it's rosie o'donnell star of the flintstones so listen um
00:04:29.300 i have a cold sore i know happens get run down you know anyway um i know a lot of you were very
00:04:38.060 upset about the video i made before i went away uh for a few days i didn't go online and haven't
00:04:44.840 seen them till today but you are right i did not do my due diligence before i made that emotional
00:04:50.400 statement and uh i said things about the shooter that were incorrect i assumed like most shooters
00:04:57.240 They followed a standard M.O. and had standard, you know, feelings of of of what, you know, NRA loving kind of NRA loving.
00:05:11.140 Anyway, the truth is, I messed up.
00:05:13.720 And when you mess up, you fess up.
00:05:15.360 I'm sorry.
00:05:16.900 This is my apology video video.
00:05:19.200 And I hope it's enough.
00:05:21.600 Well, it's not.
00:05:23.340 It was a half assed apology.
00:05:25.220 You didn't apologize to the people you, you apologize to your own ilk about giving improper information.
00:05:34.940 You didn't apologize to MAGA or people that exercise their Second Amendment rights or Republicans.
00:05:47.280 I'm sorry.
00:05:49.200 I said I didn't do my due diligence.
00:05:53.220 You didn't do your due diligence when you used your face like a barstool either, did you?
00:06:00.520 What was popping up over there?
00:06:02.240 That was no cold sore.
00:06:04.020 That sore was hot.
00:06:06.000 That was no cold sore.
00:06:07.940 Yeah. 1.00
00:06:10.260 She is repugnant. 1.00
00:06:13.080 Just terrible. 0.99
00:06:16.080 It just does show, like, I don't think she was ever a strong person.
00:06:23.220 But when the president of the United States calls you a slob on the highest rated presidential debate of all time,
00:06:35.320 it might crack your shell a bit. 0.88
00:06:38.960 Might crack the old shell and get inside.
00:06:43.420 One of the greatest lines ever. 1.00
00:06:46.420 You call women slobs. 0.93
00:06:47.760 Just Rosie O'Donnell.
00:06:49.840 Oh, one of the greatest moments in presidential history, ladies and gentlemen.
00:06:59.580 Oh, well, we could circle back around to the great mayor of Chicago.
00:07:07.160 I mean, the clips that come out of this guy's office are astounding. 1.00
00:07:12.280 He is very stupid. 1.00
00:07:16.100 He's not a smart guy. 1.00
00:07:17.380 and he's extremely race-driven. 0.78
00:07:22.120 Everything he does is based on race.
00:07:25.120 That's why he doesn't want Trump to come in like Trump did in D.C.
00:07:30.120 and really lay the law down.
00:07:32.660 Get the Chicago law enforcement to do what they're supposed to do.
00:07:37.320 Look, I bet there's people on the Chicago PD that want to do their job.
00:07:43.680 They want to go out there and make arrests and take those illegal stolen guns off the street
00:07:52.500 that are used in untold amounts of gang violence.
00:07:57.180 But, unfortunately for the mayor, it would look really bad because the majority of people getting arrested,
00:08:07.400 getting shaken down by law enforcement for their guns
00:08:11.780 and being taken off the streets,
00:08:14.440 the vast majority of them would be young black men. 0.65
00:08:19.040 Because Chicago is just rife with gang violence, 0.98
00:08:22.880 and a lot of them are young black men. 0.97
00:08:25.080 They have illegal stolen weapons on them, 0.99
00:08:27.920 and they're killing each other. 1.00
00:08:29.960 And if a black mayor came out and said anything about it 0.98
00:08:33.560 and might suggest uh-oh that parenting might be an issue raising these kids in in homes that are
00:08:41.300 75 78 percent female dominated no fathers illegitimate kids uh you say that you're
00:08:51.900 you're losing the next election you'll be right it would be the truth and you would actually
00:08:59.400 be trying to help the situation so obviously we can't do that that's crazy that's crazy talk
00:09:08.880 so um so uh the mayor there he's got it he's got to talk about what trump is doing in dc and that
00:09:17.340 crime crackdown and him wanting to bring it to chicago uh he's got to equate it to anyone anyone
00:09:24.880 Right. Thank you. Slavery. What? Yes. Slavery and the civil rights movement. This is beyond stupid. Listen to this clip.
00:09:39.420 All of this pushback against Trump, knowing how he responds to that could actually provoke him to follow through with this talk about sending in the National Guard when yesterday he seemed to waffle. Could this make things worse, all this pushback?
00:09:51.720 could you imagine if as a descendant of slaves if my ancestors would have had that same rationale
00:09:56.920 let's not fight against the Confederacy let's just try to get along and then maybe one day 0.93
00:10:00.760 they'll give us our freedom nowhere in the history of America or the world where marginalized people
00:10:05.640 have sat silent and idle and they've been able to actually achieve justice and liberation the fact
00:10:10.280 that you have a unified front in Chicago where we are rejecting the occupation by the military
00:10:16.600 of our cities that's actually fighting for our democracy that's what's required in this moment
00:10:21.240 Leading in this moment takes a great deal of courage, but we stand on the shoulders of so many people that have come before us.
00:10:27.000 We have seen these type of tyrannical acts before.
00:10:30.380 One thing that we know for sure, when we fight back against tyranny, the people united always prevail.
00:10:35.720 Can you imagine equating trying to prevent young black men from killing each other to the anti-slavery movements and civil rights?
00:10:53.780 Only in Chicago, friends.
