by BetMGM, Make It Legendary. I want to say hello to Richard Piers, Steve Fulcarts, Jason

0:18.5

Herod. Matthew Chalk is in the chat as well.

Hit the like button if you could, but you might want to close your eyes on this one. Let's take a look at the recap screen before we bring in the stars of the show. Listen, there's no talking around this. O and six, Mikey B goes O for two. The Trey Murphy one looked like it was coming in and then it wasn't. buckets misses Mike McClure misses and our sports line picks miss as well. Listen, last week we had a really good week. This week we are not having a good week. And that's what happens when you do this 52 weeks a year. You're going to have some bad weeks. We got a rebound. And we're going to rebound with the stars of the show. We've got Mike McClure.

0:54.4

We've got Eric Cohen.

0:55.5

We've got Larry Hartstein.

Eric Cohen, what can we look forward to from you today?

1:40.3

Are we dipping into the college basketball streets?

1:43.1

See, I'm going deep today. Larry will be proud. I put a pickup on the site last night of schools.

1:49.9
