Cousin Sal comes to you on a Tuesday morning spaghetti and meatballs.

Yes, they're here.

Who else would fiddle with the knobs?

Babyface Joel Solomon, he's here.

He's producing this mess. And joining me as always my dear, dear pals, Dave Damashek, Martin Weiss. Let's not, no further ado. Without further ado, we can't have further ado because we have wall-to-wall sports, plus the draft this weekend is going to be insane. I fell as I did my taxes last week. And then off to the side, I asked my account and I said, can I lose? Can I afford to lose three to $4,000 a night? Can I continue to do that on these basketball and hockey games? And he said no for the next two months because we're not even close. He said no. He said no. So I think I have to go on a budget check. I think I do. I don't know. No, no. That's

thinking. What you need is to make better picks. That's where Dave Damishick comes in. And I suppose Martin Weiss, let's see what he has to say here as well. But I think, listen, let's turn that frown upside down and hand out some winners today. All right. I hope so. Martin, are you up for the challenge? I just feel like it's harder than ever. I think there's too many games on. There's, I mean, essentially there's with the basketball and hockey, you're not hockey so much, but there's 32 teams still around. I guess 31, right? Sixers, so there's one team out. So, but it's it's too much and too much

spells a defeat for me almost all the time. But Sal, much like LeBron last night, you've been doing

this for well over 20 years. Like, I need you to, I need you to sack up and get to it, man.

I need you to come on.

Press that nitrous one more time. All right. And score the game time bucket and push it to overtime, all right? Because you're not having a gambler problem. You're right. That's what it sounds like. You know what? I need to take after some of the winners out there, like our prop quiz winner, Raymond Hall. He got seven out of ten. it's not that hard to get that gold cap.

Seven out of ten.

This is not nine out of ten.

Check seven out of ten. It's not that hard to get that gold cap.

Seven out of ten. Check seven out of ten in college is a what, a C, C minus. You get a C minus prop quiz. You got a gold cap. I would know. I was looking, I was looking up at those from where I was

sitting there. All right. See, imagine that, getting as many as seven out of ten right.

Yeah,

what a dream that would be.
