World Cup Bombs (June 16–17): Iran, Senegal, Norway & England Picks + Vegas Trip Disaster Recap

C.J. Sullivan ("The Bet Detective") returns to Bottom Line Bombs to apologize for missing a midweek show and recount a rough Las Vegas trip for Stanley Cup Game 4, including a disastrous Westgate stay, a failed attempt to broadcast, and a broken-down 18-year-old car diagnosed with a shot transmission—punctuated by getting pooped on by a pigeon and a tense but comedic encounter outside a casino. He recaps Carolina winning the Stanley Cup (and cashing Hurricanes -1.5) and reacts to the Knicks winning the NBA title after the Spurs’ repeated collapses, criticizing coaching decisions and timeouts. He then gives World Cup bets for June 16–17: Iran -130 vs New Zealand, Senegal draw-or-win (+160) vs France, Norway -2 (-107) vs Iraq, Argentina/Algeria over 2.5 plus Julián Álvarez anytime (+150), Austria/Jordan over 3, and England -138 vs Croatia, with additional soccer rants and notes on upcoming content.
