| 0:00.0 | Check it down, man. |
| 0:05.8 | The numbers told the story they always do. |
| 0:10.5 | It's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. |
| 0:12.6 | This is a numbers game with Gil Alexander gone Veson. |
| 0:16.3 | Good Monday morning, Tud is a numbers game at Veson, the sports betting network Veson.com game plus iHeartRadio, YouTube TV, and of course, series of channel 158. It's Gil Alexander. Alongside my little buddy Kelly Bidley, everybody. Hey, oh, how we doing? I'm good, man. You're still alive and Survivor? Still alive, me and everybody else and their mother. You and every other human. Who'd you have? I took the Chiefs. |
| 0:38.0 | I ended up taking the Chiefs, so I burnt that card early. |
| 0:41.7 | And that's the old weird Survivor Net Negative feel when you win on a team like that, |
| 0:47.5 | which we'll get into just how unbelievably ridiculous that game was, in terms of domination. |
| 0:53.3 | Yeah, it really was. |
| 0:54.0 | I thought Steve brought up a good point on Friday, though. And it had me thinking a little bit. I mean, I think anybody that was listening, my head was still scrambled on Friday. It was where I was going to go. I sat down, kind of just started looking at the next few weeks. And I know I had said on the show, I was probably going to go Patriots. And then just kind of looking ahead to this week, it was, man, I really thought it would be nice to have the Patriots available. So ended up pivoting went to Kansas City. And then, yes, everybody else ended up winning. Hey, man. You still alive. Congrats to those who took the Bears out. Congrats to all who survived and are through into week eight. |
| 1:28.3 | I know some still have picks tonight. |
| 1:30.6 | There's a double header in football. |
| 1:32.4 | There's a game seven in major league baseball. |
| 1:35.6 | Man, oh, man. |
| 1:36.8 | And I got no idea between Toronto and Seattle. |
| 1:39.0 | We'll talk to Adam Burke a little later on to discuss game seven between the Blue Jays |
| 1:43.6 | and the Mariners for the right, the privilege of taking on the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series and the fall classic. So we'll do that a little later on. In between time, of course, it's guessing lines for week eight of the National Football League, which we'll get to. It's the exercise we do. We're on a cocoon. I don't know the spreads. Kelly tells me what they are. Within that exercise, |
| 2:01.6 | we tried to find value last week, a week ago, the two teams that I bet immediately during |
| 2:06.7 | guessing lines, the Carolina Panthers and the Seattle Seahawks. So 1 and 0 so far on the initial |
| 2:11.6 | instinct with Seattle pending tonight. We'll see how that exercise goes today. Before we launch |
| 2:17.0 | into it, though, |
| 2:17.7 | a circus survivor update. That's how we like to sort of start the week. Very few, very few |
