Skill Alexander is Kelly bidin producer number nine so much more than a producer how you doing man you look a little flustered this morning you all right I’m good what are you talking about I don’t know chill man it’s Friday it’s Friday Frid we are ladies and gentlemen we are
Going to try and you correct me if I’m wrong here we’re going to try to set the modern-day record for most uh for the most how can I say this most sports where we provide bets for on one 2hour radio program yeah yeah well I don’t know you and I have done
Several shows like this before but we are come up every so often we’re we’re all over the map today we keep it running count because we could get up to nine or 10 plus an Oscar bet could go that way uh we’ll talk UFC 299 with Jordan Sherwood our old buddy from the
Unnamed MMA podcast uh obviously with Shan Ali on the main event he’s got thoughts Dustin porier on that card as well Al Bernstein will talk boxing with us uh not Tyson Paul I don’t even know if I want to embarrass Al by even asking about that I don’t I don’t I I don’t
Know either like people it’s like a real thing though it’s like a thing yeah but like I my brain can’t believe that you know what I mean but Nagano Joshua that’s what I’ll be asking about yes which is which is today right plus there’s an undercard that he he wants to
Talk about also so we’ll get we’ll get into that or or a fight on the undercard that that we’ll get to Chris felica he’s got an Oscars play he’s got soccer he’s got who horses I don’t know what he has it’s Fela it’s Fela it’s a it’s a but po
Puri potluck Jason wiard that’s always potluck from under a cloud of smoke Adam ber college hoops obviously with conference tournaments and full swing maybe uh extract a baseball play from him and Paul car on soccer a little later on Jesus a lot we got a lot
Yesterday as I mentioned top of the show yesterday um went to the West Coast Conference opener pepperine Pacific and I mentioned on the show um if you if you noticed on the show if you listen to the show long enough you know I’ve had two very strange college basketball tie-ins for
All These Years first it was Ty Jerome I don’t know if you go back to the on this show this far uh this far back with Tai Jerome I didn’t I wasn’t friends with his dad but I had a mutual friend with his dad and so I was talking about Tai
Jerome like when he was I was like he’s in 10th Grade I was like he’s a kid and he ends up in Virginia they end up getting smoked by UMBC as a six you know as a one seed by a 16 seed then they win the national title the next year and Tai
Jerome is huge uh as integral part of that and then I am great buddies with um West mlet West mlet is Houston mullet’s Dad I’ve known Houston since he little kid he’s played for Pepperdine here the last three years so I always go to Every Time Pepperdine comes for the West Coast
Conference tournament um I go to all the Pepperdine games and so yesterday no different and I mentioned even though Houston’s out with a knee injury they should probably be able to take care of Pacific well did they it was 26 to nothing I started getting texts what’s
The record for the biggest start to any college basketball game I had to parl text me goes what’s the record I was like why don’t you looking up yourself so uh it’s 44 to nothing it’s Southern Southern did it apparently like 2013 he’s like doing his show I was like why
Don’t you do your own research uh 44 to nothing uh in favor of southern back in the day so they came pepper I did uh 18 points shy of matching that yesterday but then it was 39-2 uh it was 52-9 at the half that was
A big deal for us we’re like holding the single digits let’s see what we go on here anyway Pacific Pacific ends up getting crushed by pe9 102 to 43 and the tie in here is that first of all the I got a lot of folks who were like oh I
Saw you on on TV if they had randomly just placed the camera on anybody in the crowd you might have caught me because it’s only friends and family there it might have been a hundred people I’m not good at counting that kind of group but literally there was no paying fan that
Had no connection to either team but at the game I happen to run into Matthew Holt who works for us Integrity of course wow okay and you know we said our hellos and our pleasantries and then as this game was just getting ridiculous I
Thought in my head I said oh when I go up the stairs and I run into Matthew again I’ll make some quip like probably should check on these Pacific guys you know just as a joke not that they just Pacific did was make a basket there wasn’t anything wrong with their with
The betting activity they just are not good basetball they’re UNG good that’s right but Matthew was gone he had left and I don’t know if it was because the game sucked so bad or perhaps he had gotten called away but had work to do and had work to do at us integrity and
The reason for that in case you missed it UAB and Temple uh had a game yesterday there was all kinds of weird outcomes in college I mean there’s blowout Central there were low scoring games such a weird day in college basketball um but in case you missed it
Uh the UAB Temple game was flagged for unusual betting activity that game actually was an American Athletic Conference official confirmed a Sports Illustrated us Integrity monitors betting activity for sports teams and sports books they they sent an alert uh to operators about the game and really it was captured while this was happening
All that unusual betting activity on vison prime time yesterday with Tim Murray Jonathan Von toel and their guest James Patrick root from three-man weave but I want to start with this normally I wouldn’t but you brought this to our attention and this is really fascinating from just a betting perspective UAB is
Playing Temple tonight there’s nothing really fascinating about that matchup however this game has gone from UAB minus 22 up to UAB minus 7 or 7 and A2 which is at DraftKings right now and there really isn’t any reason to this move right no no no there’s not it got
All the way to eight during the day it just progressively kept going up and that’s the kind of move where I see it and I start looking into it I’m like all right what’s going on here who on Temple’s out UAB doesn’t have anybody anybody coming back so there’s not like
That would be contributing to it and there’s just there’s nothing there’s nothing we can find here uh I’ve had a couple of these look I’m not going to say this is point shaving but in my betting career I’ve seen a couple of these where like truly no injury that
That I can find and a couple times I’ve tried to come in on the other side because I’m like my number says it should be down by three where it opened my number my number and then it never ends well so uh the fact that there’s
Been some buyback on the eight I’m at least encouraged by that there are some some smart people that think this is fishy and are going the other way but there’s a game early this year where Temple versus Memphis Memphis got bet for no reason Temple didn’t have any
Injuries uh so it’s weird to see it a second time with temple this this is bizarre it is not a normal happening in the market especially this late in the season Jimmy root all over it all over it all including sighting an earlier Temple game this year by the way UAB
Wins this game yesterday by 28 100 to 72 and you know we don’t usually have these stories on a daily a weekly even a monthly basis sometimes times we go a year we don’t even talk about anything like this so it’s interesting I it’s one of those things where it’s like it’s I
You know if you have free time today and you had access to UAB Temple might be a pretty interesting watch through the lens of huh is anything nefarious happening here at all nothing nothing has been adjudicated of any kind right just alerts yeah I know I I did see a
Couple notes from people yesterday I mean it’s it’s crazy and it’s it’s you we always got be careful speculating on stuff like this but you never know um you know Eli hovic I know put out a tweet uh just just citing the rebounding numbers like Temple was outrebounded 41
To19 and rebounding is is largely effort yes yeah like no matter what level you’re talking about I don’t know who knows who knows it’s just it would be crazy if this if if this was actually a thing especially in today’s day and age right where you have Matt Holton us
Integrity flag something like that we’re doings on this network where the great James Patrick is coming on and talking about it before the game even stting about the crazy line mov you got to be locked in to notice that like in terms of not to notice the crazy line movement
But to to to with such conviction say that there is no explanation for this and oh by the way this happened again earlier in the year no right my point is just like the the accusation here would be that temple temple is point shaing or something right yes but with today’s day
And age where you have us Integrity before the game Jim root on network before the game do if you were a player on that team still going through with that plan it seems a little outlandish but these college kids you know I mean the other way the other way to look at
It and you’re right we we’re not we don’t know we don’t know but the other way to look at it is with 300 plus D1 college basketball schools what are the odds that this doesn’t happen ever sure very slim right absolutely so absolutely anyway that was the big story of the day
There uh it was just so random that I ran into Matthew hold of the game and then he was gone by the end I didn’t know where you were going with that at the beginning that is yeah that is random mat Matt Hol awesome does great work with us Integrity obviously if
You’ve been a long time V and listener viewer used to see him on on our Network regularly all the time yeah uh the other thing uh Russell Wilson and the one football bit of news yesterday Russell Wilson met with the Steelers yesterday or the Steelers have shown interest did
They have an actual meeting I don’t to get that straight he reports that he has set there’s been a meeting set with the Steelers for him convers so that of course affected the Align in terms of Russell Wilson’s next team not by much but it did tick up on the Steelers to
Minus 300 the Raiders fall to 4 to one everybody else Falls Vikings plus 450 Falcons 5 to one the Falcons of course rumored to be most interested in Kirk Cousins um what do you think Russell Wilson to the Steelers I’m sure the Steelers feel if in fact this happens a
Meeting does not mean he’s being signed but let’s just say it it goes through um I’m sure the Steelers feel that the improvement from picket Rudolph dbis that production to Russell Wilson is enough to get them into the playoffs they obviously would feel that way if
They went through with this do you agree with that and I it feels like I just feels like the Russell Wilson to to the Steelers makes about the least sense of all these quarterbacks that were disc using to me I just like well where does Russell Wilson to blank make sense well
I think it’s the weird ones like You’ said like the Raiders I I think he makes a ton of sense in Minnesota if Kur cousins leaves why doesn’t he make sense in Pittsburgh to you just because I think that I I don’t know why I would
Want to bring in and I mean I don’t have much belief in Kenny picket or Mason Rudolph but it’s it it sounds like that team still does have a little bit of that and if they do Gil where they’re at in that division they fine try it with
The young guys you know what you have with Russell Wilson yeah though I mean you’re right as early as as recently as 3 days ago it they were acting like they were still interested in having Kenny pick it be their guy I don’t if they feel like they’re on the doorstep of a
Postseason in a in maybe the toughest division in football right then I can understand why they feel compelled to do this how they feel for sure like is we’ll see how they feel about this but a slight move towards the Steelers just on the report of a meeting we’ll come back
NBA oh ho ho we got a debate to show you about Defensive Player of the Year next a numbers game on V the sports betting Network baseball is back and what better way to hit off the grapefruit and Cactus leagues then with Von’s free MLB betting primer this

Yesterday was catching a random shot of Gil in the crowd on the broadcast like I said if they had flash it on any body randomly I might have had a good shot of getting in it cuz there’s only 100 people there um but it wasn’t me it was
Uh my buddy Wes is the uh athletic director at UC Riverside in addition to being Houston mallette’s dad so I just happened to be sitting next to him you know what’s really frustrating for me personally about that is I thought about it at like 4 o’clock I was like oh man
Like I should I need to turn on that game and I like forgot I was doing it like I had golf on a TV and then forgot to flip it on cuz cuz I wondered if what what were the chances for that you would be seeing in the ground we discussed
Yesterday there weren’t going to be many people there the one other thing I should say about that game though is like Ro first of all Lorenzo RAR did end up coaching this game even though he was he’s fired at the end of the year right he’s done he’s just playing out the
String um one team played for their fired coach the other team didn’t RAR kept the starters in up 52 I’m like you’re in a tournament you got a game tomorrow meaning today get the starters out man really yes yes a jai’s in there like with four five minutes left like
Please just get out you have a game tomorrow come on that’s bizarre yeah man did that bring enough players they got a punch up 50 what are you doing I think they’re live today this is from uh oh the better life Tim Lawson how about a
Socer pick he goes I can only assume someone today will mention the start of USL Championship season tomorrow someone will probably mention how Jose Bautista’s new ball club uh new newly bought Club the Las Vegas lights are a live dog at Plus 450 there you go listener bet from Timmy Lawson thank you
Buddy uh this is from Joby I listened back and had to laugh at your quick reference yesterday to the new cast in The jardian Cinematic Universe I too agree with your assessment that like when Spider-Man changed from Toby McGuire to Andrew Garfield something is off totally totally don’t change the
Jian girlr on me without warning oh man you there are multiple versions of that of that commercial of what’s the other one sky Rizzy like these like like how well do those sell like I can only imagine for how much money that they have for marketing no idea but I was
Getting very attached to the old jardians girl jack at jack47 70548 the Edwards game last night saving the Edwards game saving block Defensive Player of the Year voters listen to this is a great joke I was going to make a version of this but he beat me to it
Defensive Player of the Year voters were like did you see goar clear the lane so Edwards can make that block I love you for that comment love you by the way what he’s referring to Anthony Edwards scored 44 last night on the heels by the way of uh Carl Anthony towns uh
Announcing that he’s going to get surgery or he didn’t announce it but the team did that he’s going to get surgery could be back uh towards the beginning of the Western Conference playoffs we’ll see on the meniscus and in the beginning of that game too it was like first play
Anthony Edwards and goes down I was watching I was like oh my gosh this like this whole thing just fell apart in front of our eyes so quickly back like that and then like cuz I think he ended up going to the locker room twice in the
First half yeah he comes back and he scores 44 and then it’s 13 what was it 113 111 uh and at the buzzer Pacers are coming down Court Aaron nouth to the rack and Anthony Edwards he later says I’ve never jumped that high in my life
He makes a spectacular block to uh to seal the game yeah missed shot down at the other end by him right that would have it would have basically sealed it cuz would have put him up four and then yeah and then they go down racing down
The other end he chases down makes the block it was alltime effort play he is he is so fun to watch Gil and and and honestly with Carl Anthony towns out of the way you’re going to see a whole lot more of Anthony Edwards here over the
Over the next few weeks wherever long he’s out but uh Jack 1477 0548 or whatever you are uh that is the best joke of the morning because I’ve been ranting about how it’s ridiculous Defensive Player of the Year how you know everybody just has given it to Rudy
Goar because he’s the best defensive player on the best defense and nobody even wants to have the conversation that wi banama Victor we Bama’s defensive stats are better than his in almost every way it’s ridiculous and I’ve gone at it at every angle not only the raw
Stats but when you take wiim banama out of the Spurs uh line up what happens including last night when you take uh Gober out that the t-wolves don’t really fall off cuz he’s got teammates that are great on defense too anyway what do you know Kelly um there’s a podcast that
Features Channing fry and Richard Jefferson uh and they road tripping the road tripping podcast pardon me the road tripping podcast and what do you know they happen to have a spirited debate about it as well I’m not giving defensive player of the year because he
Gets a lot of blocks to the worst team in the league he gets they’re 24th it’s not his fault it’s not his fault stop stop saying that the best player on the team it ain’t always his fault I’m not saying that they’re a good team but why
Are we going to give him a war we give him Rookie of the Year and defensive player of the year when again CH hren Chad hren on the number one seed Minnesota has Rudy goar they’re the number two seed and it’s like well look at his with Jaden McDaniels you playing
With jadden McDaniels come on bro Rudy goar is playing with two and a half Allstars thank you wow you got they go on for several more minutes yes and a lot of beeps would have been necessary if we kept going too yes yeah yeah why time check good job so that’s Richard Jefferson
Yeah by the way good nice job why because that could have been the end of us uh Richard Jefferson is the one taking up the uh is the one cursing who is taking up the go goar is absolutely the guy and and what are we going to do
Give him Rookie of the Year and defensive player of the year both talking about wi Bama and chanting fry the voice of reason as far as I see it is the one taking the wi banama side of things anyway where it is currently in the market gobear minus 750 Victor plus
750 I think though that that’s for for things that you’ve clamored for to hear from people I have clamored that was at least a I think a great example of where this race is currently at where you have two former NBA players high level NBA players maybe one known for his defense
A little bit more than the other um arguing about who should be the leader of you know in this award category so cuz all all I said was I have a pre- flop preseason bet on Wom I just couldn’t believe that no one was even willing to have the conversation
About it and now we are seeing people are finally getting the sense some With cursing to have the conversation about Richard Richard Jefferson is fire if you have plenty of time go you could go watch uh there’s about three more minutes of that conversation I just
Didn’t want to keep going back to but it is I mean CH chating fry making all the points that you’ve tried to make right it is okay yeah like it Rudy goar is on a great team great defensive team there are multiple other guys around there
That’s why my man’s joke on Twitter was so great yeah yeah yeah I mean I mean it is you have between Mike Connelly Jaden McDaniels like you have guys that have been high high high level uh defensive players in this league before on that
Team so I I get it I get it It’s just tough because we never see this I mean it’s it’s just something we never see so I get it it’s it’s tough the other game of note in the NBA yesterday well other games of note but the the biggest one of
Course was the Celtics Nuggets game where um Celtics fall short again against the Nuggets uh yic with 32 point triple double messed around 32 point triple double 115 109 in favor of the Denver Nuggets and I am certainly not the only one to have said this but I have certainly said
A couple times already since coming back from vacation boy is it going to be awkward when the Celtics lose in in the playoffs for some of y’all who think this is the champion team I just don’t think they are it’s the I mean this is the test for them right it’s over and
Over again it’s it’s in the Big Time moments can your big time your two star players show up and finish a game and Jason Tatum is not having as good of a season this year as he has in previous Seasons like that’s also part of this so
The the notion that he could somehow turn it on he’s like actually diminished a bit this year um and then of course there’s always the poor Zing his injury you know Wonder as well might that come but that’s obviously U more hypothetical odds to win MVP joic minus 170 Shay at
Plus 250 that’s actually a tick in the direction of yic by about 10 cents in each Direction yep yic to the positive Shay Gil just a little longer Luca remains at 7 to1 Giannis at 16 to1 and there is Jason Tatum by the way at 25
To1 Jason Tatum is not the MVP stop it anybody betting that Kelly will happily take your money yeah I will I will that was I I’m glad you put it that way too because when I was when I was typing these back up this morning that was the
Most shocking thing to me I know he had got bet down to this because I think there’s just been the the random Nationwide group think of oh they’re the best team in the league who’s the best player on the best team in the league let’s bet him for
MVP it’s absurd that he’s even in this conversation because again Gil because I’m I’m going to keep beating the drum for this we’re watching one of the greatest MVP races in the history of the NBA what what these guys are doing night toight and I’m talking all four of them
But especially those top three guys Luca 30o triple double Nicole yogic 30p Point triple double every single night we’re seeing this out of these guys it’s incredible it’s incredible you might be right might be one of the great MVP races ever might come down right to that
Wire um Channing fry is my new dude man we’re like sympatico how we think as he just takes the the curse storm barrage for Richard Jefferson phenomenal hey Richard just cuz you curse more I doesn’t mean you’re right just want to point that out let’s start the uh sport

Regarding the Edwards gam game saving block Defensive Player of the Year voters were like quote did you see goar clear the lane for Edwards to make that BL amazing so true man so true uh James this is James at the James Lloyd he said if Russ looked like a deer in headlights
And on the verge of shedding tears with Shawn Peyton what do you think will happen when Tomlin rips into him Russ could possibly end the Run of winning seasons for Mike I don’t know pton was just an awful human being from the beginning well like he had it out for
What he got there the first thing out of Payton’s mouth was yeah he should stop like shaking hands or like running for what did he say running for office what did he say when Sean when uh Drew Breeze was the did that like every day
In New Orleans he had it in for Russ and there’s also likeed up I see like the Sean Payton stuff I never want to go to too much after Shawn Payton either because like he was angry with what the Broncos said up Russell Wilson to do as
Far as like what he had his own office and like locker room and extra people around and stuff like that’s what that’s a lot of the stuff he was so angry about don’t don’t give Shawn Payton any slack he went after Nathaniel hacket like broke the code of coaches that was
Terrible that was awful again well how many was that 17 Super Bowls you won Shawn P oh one I forgot you’re also a scab um Michael burns report Wilson had exploratory meeting with the Giants you see that Russell Wilson also met with the Giants that makes the least sense of
Anything Russell Wilson to the Giants what does that do I I mean I want to agree with you but what what are the Giants do like what are the Giants short-term and long-term plans anybody got that idea Mike Alvarez enough with the betting stuff let’s talk commercials
Have you seen the new episodes of Kirby Your Enthusiasm the references to JG Wentworth commercials are hilarious I can only imagine it leads to 1-800 cars for kids Crescendo the JG Wentworth part is funny oh don’t you started watching I still haven’t started watching watch the first couple all right all right that’s
Awesome um I’m going to try to convince Gil to start a commercial review podcast with me you think it would do you how badly do you think it would do what a very specific Niche audience that would be by the way Mike Alvarez you should know
That uh my man who I uh H H hang out with all the time of the pepperon games Wes you may know him by yoga pants for those who have listened to the podcast for many years one of the great stories of all time yoga pants ladies and
Gentlemen UFC 299 tomorrow in Miami and our old friend Jordan Sherwood joins us now uh we have been it’s been a long time on the Progressive guest Line Jordan joins us uh from of course the uh the unnamed podcast how you doing man what’s what’s happening I’m good H how
Do you guys not reference the shouting match that Larry David had with Siri because we’ve all been there with this recent season of kerb enthusiasm I mean I’m assuming Gil has and like I know KB has we’ve all been there right oh I yell at her every day yeah yeah I haven’t
Seen it yet here’s the reason why I don’t mention that particular scene Jordan because I thought that that kind of thing was almost too forced you know what I mean like it wasn’t nuanced or organic enough you could tell they made a point let’s have a scene where Larry
Screams at Siri does that make any sense commercials the commercials are more subtle I like that better all right Jordan again the co-host of the uh the unnamed MMA podcast wood on ESPN 1000 is where you can find him on the Twitter machine he joins us at talk UFC 299 on
The Progressive guest line let’s start with the uh the main event let’s do it in in that order usually we Crescendo but we’ll start at the main event sugar sha Ali Marlon Vera Shan Al’s only defeat to Marlin Vera uh back in the day but om Ali a big favorite here why sir
Will this be different it would be different UHC it’ll be different because shaal is not the same fighter uh sha Ali I think showed how talented he is the last time he was in the Octagon when he knocked Aline Sterling to become the UFC bantamweight champion and obviously you
Know in this sport when you’ve been in the octagon with somebody before whether it be just a few minutes like he was with Cheto Vera or if he would had a 25 minute War just the experience factor in knowing what that other opponent’s going to bring uh is a value proposition if
You’re backing sugar Shan Ali the thing that I’m looking at in this fight is the fact that the rumors are out there that Cheeto Vera did not have a good camp uh multiple sources exited that he did not look good today in the weigh-ins uh he
Had to have uh you know everything taken off to make the championship weight and I think sugar Shan um Ali has evolved as a fighter whereas Cheto Vera has kind of relatively stayed the same fighter good fighter deserves to be fighting for the championship but I think we’re going to
Get a different result than sugar Shan’s going to be and still the UFC bantamweight champion of the world after Saturday night is all said and done but you’re not laying the minus 265 you’re betting this a different way yeah I am the way that I’m going to bet
It is Ali via knockout and there’s a little bit of a risk there because Cheto Vera is renowned for his chin and his durability and his toughness but I think that the way that he fights because because Cheto Vera is not a wrestler I’m looking for a wrestler if I’m thinking
About a guy that’s gonna defeat sha oy maybe the next contender in morav divish but we’re not there yet chto ver is a guy that’s gonna rely on his toughness his cardio uh and dirtying up this fight now if it gets to the champion ship rounds we could be talking about a
Different story omi’s never been there there’s questions about his cardiio and he’s certainly got those frail legs that Cheto Vera is gonna look to expose but I think the value is is that Cheto Vera’s defense is susceptible oh Mali is a sniper and I think via knockout at plus 260 plus
265 that’s the value I’m hunting for and that’s what I’m likely going to play on Saturday night all right uh Jordan I know you don’t have a bed in the co-main but I want to ask you about it Dustin por who we’re all familiar with been around forever 35 years old now uh
Probably best known to the Casual fan from the uh two defeats uh that he had uh of Conor McGregor going up against benois sand Deni here uh porier a big dog you’re not playing this yeah if it’s if it’s continuing the trend at the way it is I’m eventually
Going to I mean you’re never going to see Dustin porier at plus 180 like where he is right now I mean we’re talking about one of the best fighters of all time former Champion been in there with everybody the hu not just Conor McGregor of the lightweight division but there’s
A little bit of recency bias he’s coming off that brutal head KCK knockout against Justin gagei in the BMF fight a fight that he was winning and benight St Deni is a killer I mean this guy is surging mediatic rise sixf fight win streak all of them I think five or six
Of them via finish so there’s just a worrisome Factor about is Dustin porier war after War I mean he’s been in so many BigTime fights and five rounds just you know just Wars against the top tier talent I I I’m just it’s too risky right
Now if it stays there or maybe it values up a little bit more then yes you have to play Dustin porier but I’m I’m on the side of a finish I I don’t think we’re getting five rounds of great fight I think one of the guys is gonna be able
To finish the other either Dustin porier is not the same fighter uh and he’s seen his better days are in his past and St Den is going to find a finish or this Step Up in competition I is just way tooo much for St Den to handle uh and
Dustin pory is going to expose him and showcase once again why he’s just so talented as a fight yeah this card is awesome a lot of these names familiar for those of us who uh were all about uh this sport during the pandemic Gilbert Burns is on this card you you are making
A play on Peter Jan speaking of that yeah I just look I I I can’t fathom that this guy’s gonna lose four fights in a row and it happens but he’s just so talented of a fighter all around you know been in the championship fight uh probably probably would be the champion
If he didn’t illegally KN alamine Sterling a few years ago and I get the S you dong his power uh he comes from a great Camp Team Alpha Male that’s where yah Faber’s the head coach and they’ve had Champions out of that that gym and the question marks about his cardio have
Been answered because he’s gone five rounds and finish guys in Championship rounds but I just think the allaround overall game of Peter Jan is finally going to show up and he’s going to have his hand raised so I I think that you know he’s not going to be threatened by
Yong’s power um and he’s going to get out to an early lead and showcase how talented a fighter he is I mean it’s a virtual pick them so I understand people on the side of Yong and why they like him but I just think that Peter Peter
Jan is too talented a fighter to have four losses in a row uh on his career record all right uh we got about 45 seconds Jordan you do have the preliminary card and of course the early prelims what’s your favorite play among all of those it’s Curtis blades in the uh
Prelim feature against jelton Oma I want jelton Oma to be special he’s got he’s a guy who could fight in two divisions Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt uh but I just think Curtis blades gonna be too much to handle he’s been in there with the best of the heavyweights Alo relies
On being able to kind of manhandle Fighters he’s not gonna be able to do that against Curtis blades blades is better on defeat and I think he gets his hand raised likely via decision so blades on the money line certainly a good play Jordan appreciate it great
Talk to you man thank you so much all right thanks for having me and Jordan with some Curb Your Enthusiasm knowledge as well there there as well appreciate that again the unnamed MMA podcast for Jordan if you want to check it out and Kelly will put all these plays every

Radio and television I believe um but we have too many things to get to with the bear El Oso Chris valika the host of The Bear bets poty comes to us live on the Progressive guest line from his lair somewhere in Connecticut how you doing the spelt Chris felica how you doing man
I’m doing well the sun is out today in in Connecticut we had a dreary week of like rain and gray and was miserable but uh it’s beautiful out right now so I’m I’m in good spirits you’re never moving from Connecticut are you it’s just the lure of Connecticut too much no I will
Be I will be moving from Connecticut I I can promise that it’s funny because it’s funny because not to take up too much of the time but I can remember like during the like when I got back from Australia uh my wife and I went over to Newport
Just like walk along the coast for the day because I I she loved my pictures from walking along on the Australian coast so we got talking then like out of nowhere she’s like so where do you want to retire to so those conversations have been had and probably those conversations are going
To lead to us somewhere abroad abroad oh okay we’ll have to post we’ll post odds on that AB broad will be uh exactly will be installed as the favorite because you can’t bet on something unless you install it Portugal exactly all right let us start with horses what do you got
For the horse crowd out there well we got we got we got we got two a good card tomorrow with Tampa Bay down it’s kind of their big their big day uh the Tampa Bay Derby is their big race for uh for three-year-old Colts on the Derby Trail
And uh there’s a big favorite in the r well no more time and domestic product are good first and second choice but I think if you look a little bit further down the board at good money uh the number four horse uh broke Maiden at Tampa from the rail it’s seven furong
Like like for those who like Sage right Sage knows what I’m talking about like like for for a horse first time out to draw the rail it’s Seven fur Longs and win is pretty impressive now a lot of times these horses uh You’ have to be
Pretty special to win right back but I I think good money for Chad Brown and aado Ortiz Jr riding for Chad which is a tell uh at 15 to1 that that is worth a play that’s race 11 tomorrow the number four horse good money and then in the race
Just prior to that which is the uh the Florida Oaks Tamp on the turf the number seven horse style points uh is a horse that I love in here I love The Sire Oscar performance uh The Brew Meri goost zapper one of the great horses Kristoff
Clont his horses win at a very high percentage at Tampa and I love the pattern of this horse was a beaten favorite first time out to another horse in the race Dynamic pricing who beat sell points next race out broke made it at a nice price and then they threw
Clont threw into a Stakes race sweet chant at gfre stream and just missed against a horse named lion audible who was a very highly thought of horse uh at Gulf Stream and now this is her second start against winners she’s five to one I’m not sure we’re g to get five to one
But if she’s still anything in the 3 to1 7 to2 range uh she’s worth the place the number seven horse uh style points in the uh the Tamp Oaks what was the price that you gave out to Numbers Game listeners last week that cashed what was
The number on it uh it was 9 to2 on the morning line and got bet down a little bit to like four to one 72 all right another Kristoff another Kristoff Clan Horse by the way yes that’s why bring it up okay soccer what do you like um obviously my my allegiances for
Liverpool on Sunday so I really I I don’t have a something that I really love well I shouldn’t say that I I think both teams to score is probably the way to go uh in in that game because look it’s Manchester City’s last opportunity to know that they fully control their
Their Destiny to to win the Premier League like if they they get a draw tomorrow uh they’re relying on someone else to to cause Liverpool to drop some points so they’re going to have to go on the road and press and if he mo Kate who potentially suffered an injury yesterday
In the Europa League in Prague if he can’t go that kind of hurts Liverpool’s backline some but but this feels like a both teams to score but I know it’s it’s like minus 220 or something like that it’s juice through the roof so like if
You want to put down an official play at a better price um you could put down Arsenal minus one and a half against brenford it’s you got back over Arsenal’s last however many Premier League matches 6 nil 41 5 nil 6 nil 31 2-1 5 nil like they have been absolutely
Destroying people uh in the Prem because they know they needed to make up a goal differential potentially against City or or Liverpool if they wind up tied at the end of the season so uh brenford is a team that’s kind of in disarray right now so Arsenal minus the one and a half
Uh at home against brenford tomorrow would I guess you could put down as the official play I think that’s around minus 150 or so yeah Liverpool Man City the biggest sporting event in the world this weekend and Paul Carr will be on later I’m not sure if he has a play in
It either by the way teams uh separated by one point at the top of the Premier League table with 11 games to go this year I got I got enough Liverpool at plus 750 or so that I’m uh I’m kind of uh I’m all in at this point so uh we
Know we know we know my allegiances and I’m hopeful that they can uh get to win all right let’s go to college hoop what do you got there I I don’t have really anything in the conference tournaments but but I have been looking like like a
Teams that I’m I’m gonna want to bet on or maybe like once the bracket comes out teams that I want to focus on and like I’ve never been the biggest Gonzaga guy but this year they’re kind of been been a little bit dismissed I think a little
Too early I mean this is a team they lost twice in the West Coast Conference by two and by one and then they went went to St Mary’s last week and annihilated St Mary’s they got a win at Kentucky and people are treat like talking to about them like they’re like
Like 10 and six in the West Coast Conference like like like like like they’re an afterthought and like I’ve seen them projected to be like a 10 10 seat in the tournament like if you I would love to get a good price on them to maybe reach the sweet 16 I mean I’m
Sure they potentially be a dog in the in the the second round obviously but maybe the first round as well so maybe just the money line might be the way to do it but I’d like to see what type of odds I can get on Gonzaga to reach sweet6 team
It’ll be a good price and I’ve seen uh plus 19900 to be uh in the final four which I don’t know if I’d go that far but uh but but Gonzaga I think is a team that for the first time this year I feel like they look this is how they made
Their their their run their hey like they were the double digit seed that made the sweet 16 the Elite 8 and pulled upset so the pressure might be off marked for you a little bit this year and uh kind of a free roll boy what was
That late late 90s when we uh the car the Gaga team you characterized right there was like the late 9s version of Gonzaga when no one expected anything from them I did ask Kai mcken from three man weave earlier this week uh I was like okay give me a team in college
Hoops that you feel has the widest the disperate uh the widest outcomes you know variants of outcomes come tournament time and the first team out of his mouth was Gonzaga so twoe Point yeah twoyear Point first of all how dare you miss that by the way uh okay well I
Thought it was GNA be Jim I thought I thought Jim was on I get I confused Jim is too busy working for us Integrity now so I feel good I feel good about that by the way to be on the wrong side of a of a rigged game because I had Temple last
Night when it hit eight I’m like why the hell this game hit eight and to be on the wrong side of a rigged feel like I feel like I accomplished something last time that’s such a great Nuance betting there I feel great I was on the wrong
Side of a possibly rigged game all right 96 AC 96 Academy Awards on Sunday night you sir have some thoughts as well on this I I do I I I don’t I didn’t go full tuxedo like Brian Ortega did yesterday and uh I actually did play his adapt
Scen p uh American fiction I I found some places to get down on this uh as well but uh if you I look at the best visual effects uh Godzilla minus one I played this a few weeks back it was like minus 105 110 like it was bouncing back
And forth and I noticed yesterday it was like minus 250 into spot so kind of a like his theory with with American fiction uh adapted screenplay like Godzilla minus one has taken some some some pretty pretty good money and obviously the director jaki yamaki is someone who is known in the film world
For his special effects and visuals and obviously Japan finances a lot of these types of movies so uh I’m I’m just kind of reading putting the dots together I have not seen this movie a full disclosure but uh I’m just kind of following the the Market here and kind
Of following the trail and listening to some smart people so I think gzilla minus one for best visual effects to say it’s still at a minus 250 or so whatever it is now I would lay that how many films of this Bunch because for me it’s
I I saw barbie and that’s it how many of you SE I saw Oppenheimer yeah I saw Oppenheimer and I saw and I saw the holdover I love the holdovers and I would love love to see that Paul Giamatti too I would love to see Paul Giamatti win an actor it’s another
Detention for those who have seen the seen the film I would suggest but and then on a flight home from Turks Molly watched uh Barbie next to me and I kind of was peeking over now and then obviously didn’t have any audio but she enjoyed it it was entertaining so I
Don’t certainly think it’s gonna be in the mix for for best movie but U hey man Margo Robbie’s Margo Robbie it’s all I got to say exact exactly right uh Paul Giamatti by the way Pig vomit and John Adams like the greatest roles and so different but so awesome uh Chris thank
You we covered it all appreciate that I think I’m going to have to think I’m gonna have to go uh listen to some Howard stir right now to in honor of pig bomit well don’t do that because Al Bernstein’s next Al Bernstein on boxing we’re in the Hall of Famer and my tennis
Picks as we try to hit every sport in the universe levitar next on DK we’re coming back at V the sports Betty Network
