0:00.0	What is going on, y'all? We are back. It is another edition of Nobets Bar. This time,
0:26.2	UFC Vegas 72. We're back at the apex again. Ricky Simone, Song Yandong, Good Main event. We'll
0:36.8	find some fights to bet on beyond that. Jed, how are we feeling, man? How can you not be feeling great
0:42.5	when you when you just pull up the old Wikipedia, the old tapology and you take a gander and you say,
0:49.1	this, this is an apex card, my friend. Of all the apex cards out there, this sure is one of them.
0:57.7	This is what the venue was created for. Really is. I will say we just just got word in the last
1:05.1	like hour or two that we've had another fight fall off the card. Natan Levy and Pete Rodriguez
1:11.1	is being pushed back. So as it stands right now, I mean, still several days away, it's only 11
1:18.2	fights. So a fight that I was actually looking forward to in Pete Rodriguez and Natan Levy.
1:24.8	Yeah, I just, this card is whatever I'm happy to lose them because if we can, I mean, you usually

1:52.4	mind. Just keep all those things in mind that I just said before you place any wagers this week.
1:58.4	You don't got to, you don't got to get it all this week. It's, it's a marathon, not a sprint,
2:02.8	which is a perfect segue to how last week went. Not just betting. I mean, they, they,
2:10.8	paying the big bucks for a reason. How was the marathon, my friend? I saw we finished.
2:16.2	So we did and we didn't. The marathon did not happen. We had to make a day audible into half
2:23.2	lights by you or by the planners by me. There were, we suffered some setbacks in the week,
2:30.4	leading up to it. And there were parts when I didn't think I was going to finish the half.
2:36.1	An unfortunate foot injury really made it very difficult. And so the day before I was like,
2:47.1	I don't think I physically can make 26 happen. I'm not even sure I can do the 13.
