0:00.0	Welcome to a good football show. I'm your host, Pac-Rain. With me today is Patrick Darty,
0:22.4	Kyle DuVorchek, and Davis Maddick, our special guest here at SportsGrid and of the TakeCast.
0:27.7	Guys, how's it going? Very good. I'm very engaged in this podcast, currently drafting Michael
0:34.0	Carter in the eighth round of a DK baseball draft. Well, that's very apt because we are going to be
0:39.1	talking about Draft King's best fall. Pat just didn't decide to draft during the pilot. It's
0:43.5	actually related to our topic today. I did want to just mention off the top. It is a Tuesday,
0:49.1	normally a good football show has not been going on a Tuesday, but that is going to be the case
0:54.2	going forward. So Tuesday at 230, look for us on YouTube. Look for that in your podcast feed. We'll
1:00.5	be adding this show as we get into the heart of drafting season and to kind of kick that off.
1:04.9	One of the talk a little bit about the Draft King's best ball tournament because our listeners,
1:10.8	I can certainly speak for myself, have been much more over on underdog. And I haven't been as in
1:17.2	the weeds on Draft Kings, but I know that Kyle and Davis have. So I wanted to talk to you guys
1:23.2	and Pat is kind of catching up last minute, Kraming. I wanted to talk to you guys a little bit
1:27.9	about kind of the differences. Davis, let me start with you. What's kind of like the overall kind
1:34.4	of drafting environment like the scoring is similar. It's PPR instead of half PPR. It's 20 rounds
1:41.6	instead of 18 rounds. I think that essentially covers the main differences in the two formats,
1:46.2	but what's the like drafting environment like on Draft Kings right now compared to on underdog?
1:52.7	Well, I mean, just the fact of the matter is underdog is doing a big marketing push. They are
1:58.1	pushing a lot of people to the platform. And I would guess they do not have 1% of the registered
2:05.0	users that Draft Kings does. Like if you look at total number of emails that underdog has associated
2:10.4	to an account, my guess is that it would not be 1% of the people who have registered for a Draft
2:15.2	Kings account. Maybe it's 5% and maybe I need to give Jeremy Levine and our friends more credit.
