Speaker 1: Can we move on now and get some actionable information
on the table. Whatever you got, I'll take what I

Speaker 2: Yes, a general thing, I'm going would say such a thing.
Why would you say such a thing?
Speaker 1: I have never tuned into this show. Please stay with us.
I We're to God, We're gonna give you guys some
actionable betting information. Let's start right the hell now, Steve.
Speaker 2: Yl Kent Perry lined one for you, Kent.
Speaker 1: I gotta go up fair, yo, Ken.
Speaker 4: That makes them happy. It makes them very happy. You
see that smile?
Speaker 2: Oh God help me.
Speaker 1: Can we please have your early Super Bowl thoughts, mister Merril.
Speaker 3: I was just saying, it's almost two weeks till we
have another football game, so we got to talk about
other things. Initial thoughts. I mean, the one thing that
jumped out to me is the a lot the bettable
line was three and a half before the conference championship games,
and then instantly after the Seahak game went final, it
was four and a half even some fives out there,
and I'm thinking, what really changed New England didn't look
great in the snow. Seattle barely covered against the Rams.
I'd like the Rams in that game. I thought they
should have kicked the field goal when they were down
fourth about three minutes ago, and it wasn't because they
were going to cover, but I thought it was the
right move strategically not to go forward on fourth and three.
If they kicked that field goal, they get the ball back,
they have a chance to win the game still, So
I thought the line was a little more inflated than
it would have been from three and a half up
to four and a half. But I think the books
and the betting public were going to come in on Seattle,
so that's why the sportsbooks did what they will. We'll
see if it comes back down over the course of
the week. Total open forty six and a half. It
has not hit that key number of forty seven. In fact,
yesterday on Monday I went down to forty six, even
some forty five and a halfs And that's exactly what
we saw in that Ram game with Seattle. Public was
on the over, sharps were on the under, and it
never got above forty six and a half, even closed
forty six. But once again, a lot of the line
movement to comes still, and we'll see where this settles
in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm not jumping at betting this right
at this particular moment. I am surprised though, that we
have a forty five and a half on tap, you know,
right now, just a reaction area. I'm looking to bet
the over, Joe, any thoughts on line moves. You got
fives at some books, four and a halfs on the other,
and we've spoken about the total already, seventy one percent
of the money coming in on Seattle, eighty percent on
the under.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and listen to me. I don't think it matters
at this point because I think we're in dead number
zone one way or the other. I don't see this
getting to seven. I don't see it getting to three.
So I think, ultimately, whether you get four and a half, five, five,
and we're all in the same boat here, none of
those numbers are gonna really you're not getting get edge
one way or the other unless you think this thing
is more than a field goal game. It's you know,
the value to me might be towards New England, but
I don't see this climbing. I don't think there's gonna
be such a huge influx of Sam Donald and Seattle
money where we're gonna get this thing up to six
and a half close to seven, And I don't think
you're gonna get it the other way down to three.
Speaker 2: So I'm fairly certain. Merrill, call me crazy.
Speaker 4: I think what we see here is what we get,
and if you're hoping for a key number, you're likely
not getting it here.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The only key numbers that could come into play are
forty five with totals, forty four and forty five are
key numbers in forty seven. Forty six is definitely a
dead number, and that's where it's hovering. Yeah, and then
four is a little bit more key than five, and
then six. Obviously it has become a very key number
in recent years. I don't think we get to six,
so it's only a difference between four or five is
where it's going to probably settle on the point spread.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, a very few games do end on five.
Speaker 2: Joe.
Speaker 1: Let's talk real quick before we get into the biggest
line moves is section that I know nothing about because
I didn't even know we were doing it, So I'm
curious about it as well. But before we get into that,
I don't agree with Steve. I felt like the rams
should have gone or on or than three there, so
I thought it was the right decision. I know you
had the rams, but putting some objectivity to this, do
you think they should have gone or for the field
goal or gun or the touchdown?
Speaker 4: I think McVeigh made so many, so many mistakes in
this game.
Speaker 2: Number one, seeh I agree.
Speaker 4: I mean, I think the problem is they put himself
in a position where he had to roll the dice.
If he would have went for two at any point
with the previous two touchdowns, he wouldn't have He could
have kicked that field It would have been a tie
game and we would have went from there with five
minutes to go. But I don't know why he kept
kicking extra points instead of actually going forward too. In
that spot, that last touchdown where they marched down the field,
why not go for two there because you still need
a touchdown even if you don't get the two point.
It didn't make any sense to me, Steve, why not
go What was he? What were you hoping to happen there?
Because your defense hadn't stopped him at all. Well, I
didn't get.
Speaker 1: It, so Joe and Steve, I'll jump in quick, Joe.
The concept of going of not going or there was
that it was early in the third quarter, there was
enough game left, and if they miss it, then their
next touchdown they're gonna have to go for it again.
And all of a sudden, they're chasing points. And if
they if they put the seven up, they protect themselves
from the field goal to win the game. So if
they go for eight and end up with six, a
field goal for Seattle becomes a dangerous proposition.
Speaker 2: They were chasing the entire game.
Speaker 1: Agree with it?
Speaker 2: They weren't agree with it. Chasing the entire game.
Speaker 4: I mean they were never outside of like a brief
four minute period in the second quarter, they were never
leading this game. They were chasing Seattle the whole time.
Speaker 1: And they're play calling at the end of the second
The first half was just a joke.
Speaker 4: And why are you calling a timeout and not throwing
the challenge flag to see whether Cooper Cup was short
of the line or was it a complete pain? I
don't know what. Why are we holding on to a
challenge merrill? Because once it got to the two minute warning.
You didn't have any more challenges and you called the
timeout anyway, So I like, what.
Speaker 3: Do you do? I shouldn't think that was a catch.
I mean when I saw real time, think it was
real time.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: They might not have overturned it because they called it
a catch, but that was a pivotal play. I'm with you, Press.
I think teams in general will go for two way
too early. It's not about the margin, it's about how
much time and scoring is left. And when you to
get to four is important because Seattle kicks, it goes
up seven again. Like Joe's saying, you always have two
chances to get back if you miss that first.
Speaker 2: Two point conversion.
Speaker 3: The biggest reason I felt they should have not gone
for it was I'd have to go back and look,
but I believe it was like fourth and three.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was more than a Matthew step four and four.
Speaker 3: And it's really hard in a short yarded situation inside
like the ten or fifteen wherever they were to get that,
because you have less field to work with. And so yeah,
obviously with the points spread, it would have made the difference.
I would have loved to see him kick it, but
I think strategically probably, and then mcveigh's running down the
sideline maybe about to call it time out.
Speaker 2: Didn't like the.
Speaker 3: Set he had, and then he's cussing in himself afterwards.
If you noticed, was not the biggest player of the season.
Was not a good play for the Rams.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a horrible play, and it battles me
why you would run people backwards when you got to
get you know, a man, right you.
Speaker 2: Need Yeah, double the yards you need to give.
Speaker 1: Made the same stupid play if.
Speaker 4: You know you're going for it regardless, and I think
McVeigh had already made the decision.
Speaker 2: Once you got to third and four, it's really second down.
Speaker 4: Yeah, at that point you're run, you're taking six yards
a run like Kyra and Korham are running six yards
a pop.
Speaker 2: They're obviously thinking past.
Speaker 4: You got two plays to get four yards, so why
are we throwing them in both shots?
Speaker 2: Meryl? I just I thought the.
Speaker 4: Clock management, the game management, and the play calling was
just head scratching at times.
Speaker 1: It really was that that game was not on the punter.
Speaker 2: No, the talking penalty gave it to you right back.
So that's a wash. Yeah, we got to talk about that.
Real quick.
Speaker 3: I mentioned this on wager Talk today yesterday.
Speaker 2: That was one.
Speaker 3: I mean, I didn't think it was a really bad taunt.
I probably don't think it was a flag, but it
was so stupid to do that. But then to go
back at him on the next play was brilliant. We
talk about bad play calls, that was a brilliant portant. Yeah,
and I really love to see guys that are kind
of punkish like that just self destruct. By the way,
after the game, he went over and it was shaking
mcvay's hand. As the clock expired, he was hugging Pooka.
I mean, it's just the whole thing was an emotional
one hundred and eighty degree roller coaster for that dude
who I don't like. I knew nothing about him. I
still don't like him because it just was his.
Speaker 4: Own teammates were calling his ass on the sideline too,
and they were all lucky.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Roe chewing up.
Speaker 1: That was the best part of the chewed him out.
Guys you're watching however, art Art to Caesar will be
back tomorrow. Make sure to check that out. Steve Merrill
is hosting all of next week every day Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, so make sure to stay with us.
We got a lot of showstill to come. Hit that
like button subscribe to our channel. Let us know your
thoughts on the super Bowl. It's early. Let's tell us
whether you think which is it going to be the dog?
Is it going to be the favorite? Over or under?
I got a nice super Bowl bet coming your way
in Today's Best Bets, Joe Rnary, I don't know what
you're going to be talking about the biggest line moves,
but hey, the microphone is yours.
Speaker 4: Well, there's been a couple of spots press and don't
act like if you were to look at the NHL
board right now that you're not seeing some big line
moves in the NHL.
Speaker 2: But I digress.
Speaker 4: Let me just throw this out at you because I've
been watching it all day. You guys know, I've been
telling you about Miami of Ohio undefeated in college basketball
twenty and oh we watched Arizona win last night, which
we gave you as a best bet here on the show,
and there remain undefeated. Now you got Nebraska and Miami
of Ohio. Miami of Ohio last night, nine and a
half overnight early this morning, we saw this thing get
as high as eleven as it was being steamed up.
Now we're seeing nothing but you mass money come in here.
Now we're back down to nine and a half in
a number of spots. So Merril, it's these kinds of
crazy line moves from the overnight to the early morning
to right around the mid afternoon where the battle is begun,
especially in some of these games like this one with
UMass against Miamia, Ohio.
Speaker 2: Which is it?
Speaker 4: Are they a double digit favorite or do we think
they can't cover the line. But the market right now
can't make up their mind with it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And of course, you know, those overnights very low limits.
Very few books necessarily have them, and they need. College
basketball in general, the limit is so much lower than
pro football or even pro basketball that if you get
conflicting groups even on game day, going one way or
the other, it's going to bounce back and forth like that.
And it's even worse with totals. You know, we're talking sides,
but college basketball totals, you'll see five to six point
moves up, five to six point moves down. Don't be
a steam chaser. Your quality of life will be a
lot better just handicap games. Figure out the systematic method
to do it every day and set it and forget it,
because trying to chase these line moves will drive you
a dizzy. And I really don't even think there's an
edge to be had because it goes back and forth.
Speaker 2: Ten and a half, nine and a half. That's what
cracks me up. It's like, what the hell's the difference
at that point?
Speaker 4: Either they blow them out or they don't, I mean,
or they don't cover it all.
Speaker 2: It's one together, they might lose the games. Crazy.
Speaker 1: So there are a couple of big line moves in
the NHL tonight, and I do look at them, and
I'll give you an example, Steve Dallas. They came out
of minus one eighty five minus one ninety tonight playing
the Saint Louis Blues, third out of minus one fifty,
So all of a sudden, something that was unbeedable Dallas
is now betable at minus one fifty. You got this
similar scenario with Minnesota wild a fifty cent line move
that puts the regulation bet from Minnesota into play against Chicago.
So although I'm not chasing steam when you're playing in
the money line, environment. You're seeing thirty forty point moves.
It does put bets in play that weren't necessarily there
before that.
Speaker 2: Especially around it.
Speaker 3: But that's the opposite of what we're talking about pressure
exactly right. You're not chasing steam, you're actually finding value.
Speaker 2: That's a totally different thing, Joe. That goes back to
what you were talking about.
Speaker 3: Once it goes from nine and a half to ten
and a half, there's some groups that maybe like the dog,
that come in that bumps it back down, and then
once again there's just two conflicting say hey, but that's
what makes a market, right. That's why I love free markets,
whether it's capitalism, the financial markets, or the sports betting markets.
Let the markets decide.
Speaker 1: Yep, Steve Merrill joining us, Joe, and are with us?
Hit that like button? Guys, Let's move on to our
parlay of the day. Before we get into that, I
want to make a personal services announcement. Brian Power gave
out Louisville in our Parlay of the Day yesterday and
he was the reason we lost. Joe won his, I
won mine. However, with that said, we had a comment
or put Joe, we had a comment or put up
in the comment section that a bunch of our handicappers
won Louisville last night and that made the play stronger
to him. In other words, four or five guys that
you respect all like the same play, you tend to
like it more than you would have had only one
handicapper have been on it. So couple of things to
that one no, no, no, no. If ten handicappers like
the same college basketball play, it is largely because of
the same reason. So one plus one equals two. If
a thousand people say one plus one equals two, it's
still equals too. It makes no difference. So many people
like the exact same variable, the same variable is still
the same variable. So don't get caught up. When twenty
guys like the same play, it is just as strong
as if one guy liked the same play. Were my perspective,
I'd like your thoughts on that, Steve.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's a good point. I think a lot of us,
you know, are all winning handicappers' long term we probably
look at the same thing somewhat, and when everyone's loading
up on one team, that actually makes me very nervous sometimes,
because you know, I love to fade the consensus. You know,
we talk about fading the public. All fad in the
public is is fading the consensus. So that does make
you a little nervous. But you brought up another good point.
When everyone's look at the same factor, that's one thing.
But when you find multiple different factors favoring a team,
Like if you had four different capers with different reasons
all favor a team, then maybe that's worth a look, agree,
because that is something that sets up strong plays. In fact,
some of my favorite best bets are when I have
multiple different factors working together. You know, a situational factor,
line value, maybe an injury factor, also a matchup factor.
Not all players are created equal, and that's why ninety
percent of the games on the board have no edge
every night, because you have crossing factors, right, And when
you get two or three different variables on the same side,
that maybe pay attention. But you want to know why
every caper is on that same team. It's like you said,
Praz a lot of times, it's probably group think. You know,
Teddy Teddy used to always go to that on was
that the Tuesday lunch bunch or whatever in Vegas? Yeah, yeah,
And I think they had an answer for like a
year or two. But then there's all that group think. Yeah,
and I know some guys that are pro betters that
purposely avoided the lunch bunch because they didn't want the
group think.
Speaker 2: So there's two sides to that.
Speaker 1: Well, that's interesting, Steve, because with NFL and NHL, I
really try not to listen to other people, especially in NHL,
right like it just it messes with your mind, at
least it does for me. Parlay of the day, guys,
let's win this one today. I'll go first. We're going
to stay in hockey, and this is a two percent
client play for me. It is the under in the
Washington Capitals game. Unders in the Washington Capitol's game. The
line is the total is six. Take the under, Steve,
You're up.
Speaker 3: So we're gonna go from what you think is low
scoring to what I think is gonna be extremely high scoring.
Speaker 2: I'll take the over.
Speaker 3: In the Missouri Alabama game over one sixty six and
a half one sixty seven. That line is climbing. They
have an awful loss, fastest paced team in the country
at home, like a lot of points between Missouri and Alabama.
Up and over one sixty six and a half.
Speaker 2: WHOA, All right, are you guys gonna go that way?
Speaker 4: I guess I'll go NBA here tonight then, and my
best bet is going to be well, the over in
the Utah and Clippers game has that two thirty three,
two thirty three and a half. There is no way
I would be sweating out any Utah home game, especially
that Lori market, and it's like he is set to
play in this game here tonight, so I will take
the over, even on the slow ass Clippers who will
likely get zero resistance from Utah in this game and
be able to score enough to get this thing up
in overpress.
Speaker 1: There we go, Joe. Let's get to our best bet section. Guys,
I'm going to give you a Super Bowl best bet
that is again a client play, and it's Kenneth Walker,
a rushing yard prop bet. Under the total it's seventy
four and a half. Now, that's a big adjustment against
last week when he played the Rams, and it was
I think because I bet it, it was eighty four
and a half. But now we got seventy more and
a half and this is way too high. Firstly, the
best running backs in the world barely average seventy four
yards a game over their entire career. It is a
big number. We recognize that these guys put up one
hundred yard game James, you know the top running backs.
Go find out how many times Saquon went over seventy
four and a half this year. The New England Patriots
are the number one team in the league in stopping
the run. Seventy one yards a game they've held their
opponents to And it's not like they're blowing everybody out
where people aren't running the ball against them. This is
a stout defense, a very hard defense to run against.
This is probably my favorite pop on the board, at
least it is now. It's already up with my clients.
Kenneth Walker the third under seventy four and a half
yards rushing.
Speaker 4: Joe, I'm gonna go back to college here, and I
like Arkansas here tonight on the road in Norman, Oklahoma
taking on the Sooners. Now, listen, Arkansas has some razy
home road splits here, but this OU team is probably toast.
You can stick a fork in them. Six straight SEC losses,
but maybe none worse than the one we just watched
on Saturday, where not only did Miszoo hit a ridiculous
three at the buzzer to send it overtime. They hit
a ridiculous three at the buzzer in overtime to send
ou to the l I am not sure, even on
a quick turnaround, what is left in the tank with
this Sooner team. I mean Portamoser. I love the guy.
I think he's one of the better coaches, but it
is going to be hard to recover from that. Not
to mention Arkansas as bad as they are defensively, they
got much bigger athletic wings in this one than what
Nigel pack Is going to bring or Xabian Brown for OHU,
They're in a size disadvantage. I like Arkansas in this
spot to pretty much step on Oklahoma and end the
rest of their season.
Speaker 2: Here Prez Merril.
Speaker 3: Picking against his former rival, Yeah, Sooners, I'm going to
piggyback on what I gave out for the parlay today
in the Alabama game, but instead I'm gonna give you
a better way to play the total. I kept it
simple for the parlay with the over for the game,
but if you have access to team totals, I really
like the Alabama team total up and over, and this
is something I've been doing a lot for free plays
in college basketball is looking at a team totals. Not
every book offers them still because they're very beatable. But
over eighty eight and a half in that Bama game because,
as I mentioned earlier, I think the main reason that
game is high scoring because Alabama is one of the
fastest teams in the country, the second most efficient offense
in the country. And I like the set up here
because they're coming off a loss against Tennessee slow down
Tennessee on Saturday. Now that they're back at home in
a game that's winnable against Missouri, they're going to force
the tempo, and I love this matchup. Alabama's the fifth
highest three point shooting team in the country. They take
over fifty two percent of their shots, more than half
their field goal attempts are from three, and Missouri gives
up a ton of threes. They give up more threes
than anybody in the SEC or game. Almost half their
opponent shots are from three point range. So Bama at home,
it's going to light it up from beyond the arc.
I like the game over as I mentioned in the parlay,
but I like them over eighty eight and a half.
Team total even better if you have access that tonight
in the Alabama Missouri game.
Speaker 1: Boom, there we go, guys, We've got our rundown coming
up next. Before we get into that, well it is.
Speaker 2: Oh no, a.
Speaker 1: Yeah, wo there we go. Love it Okay, I will begin. Ah, guys,
I got a big playoff tonight, my four percent NHL
money line bet. We've spoken about this in the past.
This is the strongest play I have across all sports
over an extended period of time. So last night we
had a fur percent play on Arizona against BYU, and
yes it got close, but it is never in doubt.
We cashed that. We had them on the money line.
That's now nine straight four percent bets we have cashed.
We also had an four percent bet on Denver on
Sunday as well, my four percent money line bets in NHL.
They're on a seven and one and ten and two
run twenty out of my last twenty six, but since
twenty twenty two, I am forty three and eighteen in
these plays. These are the strongest bets I ever put
out ever. We want it last Tuesday, we want it
the Tuesday before. It's five dollars Tuesday Today we're gonna
win it again tonight. Get my play at wager Talk
only five freaking dollars. Thanks everyone, Steve.

the show with the mail bag section merrill college hoops.
Let's go.
Speaker 3: Going to look at two free college basketball games, both
on National TV tonight on Tuesday, both on the late card,
by the way, Creighton Marquette and Grand Canyon, Nevada, two
National TV games. We'll start with a nine to thirty
Eastern game Creighton Marquette on T and T out of
the NBA. They don't have the NBA no more. They're
getting college hoops. This should be a good one. Greg
McDermott agains shock a smart, two big name coaches, and
Creighton comes in here as a road favorite. Twelve and
eight on the season. Laying about one and a half
to two here hasn't moved too much today. The total
has moved, though, from one fifty four and a half
up to one fifty five and a half. I disagree
with that move. I think there's some value with the
under in this game. Yes, Marquette plays fast, they're a
pressure defense, but Creighton does a great job of taking
care of the ball. And that's how Marquette relies on
scoring is off of turnovers. And neither one of these
teams turn the ball over much. And if you look
at Creighton's metrics this year, they give up very few
three point shots. Marquette one of the worst three point
shooting teams in the nation. I don't think there's gonna
be a lot of cheap points in this game. And
another thing I look at when I'm playing under is
free throw rate. Creighton gets hardly any of their points
from the free throw line, but they're the fail out
the fifth fewest points from the free throw line on defense,
so once again, not a lot of cheap points from
three point range or the free throw line. I think
the under one fifty five and a half makes some
sense in this Creighton Marquette game tonight at nine third
Eastern on T and T are gonna look at your
late late night game at ten o'clock eastern on five,
actually ten thirty eastern on Fox Sports One. This is
at the bottom of the rotation, Grand Canyon against Nevada.
Nevada currently a three point home favor. We've seen very
little movement in this line, a little bit of moving
on the total to the over as well. In this game,
open to one forty, it's now up to one forty
one and a half. Nevada solid offensive team. They're one
of the top fifty offensive efficiency teams in the country,
and they do get a lot of their points from
the free throw line, but they also allow their opponents
to score a good amount from the charity stripe, and
Grand Canyon does a pretty good job of getting there.
Nevada great three point shooting team against a really strong
Grand Canyon three point defense, So this is an interesting
match up here tonight. Rand Canyon not as much of
a three point team, but they do score more down low.
In fact, I think they've got the edge down low.
Whenever you get an underdog, I think it's going to
score more from two point range. It catches my attention.
Live dog alert here. I like Grand Canyon plus the three.
Mostly three and a half's out there now. Ran Canyon
plus three and a half I think is worth a
look in your late night game ten thirty Eastern on
Fox Sports One. And don't get it is five dollars Tuesday.

Speaker 1: Before we get into your NBA rundown, Steve, I was
watching a show last night. I have one episode left
at three episodes altogether. It's one of those I don't
know how I bumped into shows. But some guy named
some Guy buried a thing of gold somewhere in the
Rocky Mountains. Oh and he wrote a poem that gave
the clues out to where the gold can be found.
Speaker 2: Ohious? Or is it a real story?
Speaker 1: Totally true.
Speaker 2: It's a real story.
Speaker 1: The gold was just found two years ago. It took
like twelve years for treasure hunters to find this impassively.
How much died people died looking for it, It's a
big story.
Speaker 2: How much gold do you know?
Speaker 1: So I haven't got to the announcement. It's for sure
a minimum of three million dollars worth? Wow?
Speaker 2: Substantial?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah, it's like two or.
Speaker 2: Three times more than when he buried it, that's for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, four thousand announced Now it is like a thousand
when he buried it.
Speaker 2: Probably.
Speaker 1: Oh dude, I'm literally leaving here heading to my safety
deposit box. I've got a whole bunch of platinum in
actual physical bars that I'm going to start selling.
Speaker 3: I was just gonna say, pras the silver. We talked
about it a few weeks ago. I mean silver. Yes,
we're not going dollars announced within one day. Now, it
does seem like it's starting to top a little. I
don't I don't think that would be a terrible move.
I mean, if you go higher, but you're cashing out
at a pretty good time, am I.
Speaker 1: Well, dude, So from a Canadian dollar perspective, I paid
nine eighty nine ninety about five six years ago. It's
now thirty six hundred an ounce, so I more than
tripled my money.
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna bury it.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna bury it.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get then we're gonna give out a poem. Yeah,
chuck owella on the coconut grove.
Speaker 2: That wasn't me.
Speaker 1: You could tell by.
Speaker 2: His we actually a merril. I think we actually have
a preview of that.
Speaker 1: Whatever could go up my ass, Yes.
Speaker 4: Take that's where it has the platinum. Now that's a
that's gonna be an e show. Minerals. Yes, that's a
lot of minerals.
Speaker 1: Rundown.
Speaker 2: Let's oh you think, let's go all right?
Speaker 4: Here we go starting tonight here with the Partland trail
Blazer is taking on a Washington Wizards. That was might
have been some of the worst basketball I have seen
in a very long time watching the Celtics and the
Trail Blaze try and play last night. But they did
cover the eight and a half we had them. But
now second game of a back to back, I got
to know who's playing. A lot of guys played a
lot of minutes in this game here last night. Listen,
Washington is not good, but they do have a ton
of talent. Here could be a rough spot for Portland
in this one. You've got Sacramento taking on the Knicks.
Didn't the Knicks just lose to sacrament Yes, they did,
in fact pretty embarrassingly if you ask me. But now
the Knicks are back home, they put a couple of
wins together. Looks like they'll have an opportunity to pay
them back, and I do think they will a lot
of double digit favorites going on here tonight in the NBA,
that's for sure. And the Knicks, of course, are just
one of them. You also got Philly trying to right
the ship a little bit. They just lost to the Knicks.
They're taking on the Milwaukee Bucks, and what do we
got ten ten and a half here somewhere in that
ballpark list, and no Giannis, he's getting an MRI's being traded.
Milwaukee is low key tanking. Philadelphia can get out a
lot of frustration in this one. No one be tonight.
New Orleans is at Oklahoma City. Oklahoma City has lost
back to back games. Who saw that coming? New Orleans
has been feisty here, but Oklahoma City has currently constructed,
and current forum does not dictate laying fourteen points against anybody. Denver,
who the hell is playing for Denver? I don't know.
It feels like Detroit is the right side there. Phoenix
looking to bounce back. No Devin Booker, though it doesn't appear,
taking on to Brooklyn nets and quite honestly, they can
play with three guys and beat Brooklyn. And then we
told you, of course, Clippers in Utah here tonight, starting
to see some Clipper money come in. Keep an eye
on what Kawhi Leonard's issue is and whether he's going.
But I still like the over in that one. Pres Joe.
Speaker 1: Lots of action going on in NHL Tonight, Toronto playing Buffalo.
I love the over in this game. This is six
and a half Joe. Bufflo has scored six goals or
more six out of their last ten games. Toronto May
Beliefs have allowed five goals or more many times in
their last ten games. Take the over. One of my
favorite bets. Winnipeg playing New Jersey. I like the under
in this game. Joe and I slightly lean on New Jersey,
Vegas and Montreal. It's time to bet on Montreal, I
mean on Vegas and to fade Montreal. I like Vegas.
It's a Pickham. Utah playing Florida Tonight. I like the
under in this game. Joe two nothing against Tampa Bay.
They lost Utah yesterday. They're on a back to back.
I like Florida in regulation and I like the under.
The La Kings playing Detroit, Joe Steve. I like Detroit
here minus won twenty five. This is a really good
hockey team. Boston playing Nashville Tonight. I like Boston in
this game. As well. Minus won ten Minnesota. We spoke
about this at the top of the show. Been bet
down to minus two to ten. That means there is
a regulation bet in play. Hair. I like Minnesota in
regulation against Chicago. I love the under in the Saint
Louis Dallas game. My favorite under is in the Washington
Seattle game. And I love the Canucks tonight. They are
a small dog. I know they've lost twelve of thirteen,
but their metrics suggests that this is a team that
is on the rise. They have won one of their
last four, but they outshot their last three opponents. They
are playing way better, and they have San Jose in
a tough spot. I like Vancouver and I also like
the under. Now, guys, I might have given you my play.
I have a four percent NHL money line play and
I gave out a lot of moneylin bets there. But
it's five bucks, so don't take the chance. Head over
to wager Talk and get my five dollars Tuesday play.
That's it, Joe Rnari, Steve Merrill. Let's get through the
mail bag section of the show, and we're going to
start with Mickey. Steve, maybe you can translate this to
me Mickey E writes, pres write down your crap every
day to follow, and fallow is spelled f A L
l ow.
Speaker 2: Are you a going to follow?

harvesting this year.
Speaker 2: Follow, Yes, got you? Yeah, he's trying to follow you.
Speaker 1: What the hell is he talking about?
Speaker 2: Nobody knows.
Speaker 3: He wants you to write it down and probably put
it on the screen, either that he wants you to
organized or write it down.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure how to spell it, but I'm following
very well.
Speaker 1: So I have a I have a series of social
media posts I do daily called backyard bets where I
give out. But you know, one of my favorite bets,
I'm standing outside in somebody's backyard, et cetera.
Speaker 2: Follow and my daughter, my daughter run somebody's backyard joke.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I jump over fences. That's what I do.
Speaker 2: If it might be your backyard. Yeah, there you go.

show by Parlay, my best my client plays.
Speaker 2: That's right, follow it, Trip Carol.
Speaker 1: Carol that the show had too many ads in it.
Speaker 4: Trip, too many dads, ads ads I thought were all
old men.
Speaker 3: Joe, I thought there were too many dad jokes. Is
where he was going with that.
Speaker 1: I got through this before. Yes, that's on your computer.
We do not run in the YouTube ads, Jo, we
just don't.
Speaker 2: He doesn't follow us.
Speaker 3: I didn't follow that at all. I thought they made
we were promoting too much, and I was like, that's
not really.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I got the pop up ads. It is amazing to
me how they know you and like if you ever
make the mistake or if you just give them viewers
a warning. I get one occasionally. That's pretty intriguing. I'll
click on it. Man, you're getting that same concept like
I did one for like an AI app creator one time.
I'm getting all that stuff now, which is cool because
I'm interested in it. Just be careful you click on
the wrong one, like something you know, backyard debts or
something you can getting a lot of We'd kill and
home depot ads, and we got a lot of that because.
Speaker 2: Somewhere.
Speaker 1: D you want to run the video again?
Speaker 2: What video? What you're talking about it? I was that's
you know, I am not.
Speaker 3: That's why I said home depot because I didn't want
people to start getting bad ads here during.
Speaker 1: The follow us way to talk a TV.
Speaker 3: Up luck button follow us, look the video, look the video.
