    The 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby is on Saturday on NBC, and people around the country will be betting on horses to cheer on during the race.

    The guys also discuss a slew of other sports gambling stories that have broke news this week, including the Texas Tech Quarterback Brendan Sorsby gambling scandal and Damon Jone pleading guilty to selling information to gambling syndicates while coaching in the NBA.
