| 0:00.0 | Good morning, everyone. |
| 0:10.4 | Welcome into the Early Edge, brought to you by BetMGM, make it legendary. |
| 0:15.1 | What a game for we had yesterday between the Knicks and the Spurs. |
| 0:18.9 | More on that in just a couple of minutes. But first, let's take care of some business. Let's look at the recap screen. We go four, five, and one. We've got some X's on there, but a shout out to Mikey B who goes 2 and O and the sniper who also goes 2 and O. We will take that every single time. But four, or five and one is not where we want to be so |
| 0:38.2 | let's get the pick started how about we get some wins out before we even bring in the stars of the show |
| 0:43.1 | we got a couple of sports line picks to give to you early here edward cabrera under 15 and |
| 0:47.6 | a half outs minus one 29 that one courtesy of propette guy and auto lopez two plus bases plus |
| 0:53.2 | 122 ladies and gentlemen that is our discord pick from |
| 0:56.7 | very sharp katie taylor again auto lopez two plus bases at plus 122 seven of 10 he's had a hit |
| 1:03.7 | and in six of those he's had a multi-hit game five of seven off merrill kelly with three |
| 1:08.7 | extra base hit so that's the logic behind the auto l pick. Let's bring in the stars of the show. Ladies and gentlemen, it's Tom. It's Buckets. It's Danny Brasco with his New York Knicks starter jacket. It's Amags. And Buckets, I was going to start with you. It's day one of the World Cup. How could I possibly not start with you on this Thursday early edge? |
| 1:31.2 | But unfortunately, it's Danny Brasco time. Brasco, you up the floor. |
| 1:32.2 | Woo! |
| 1:35.9 | We did it! We did it! |
| 1:41.1 | Top three and maybe top two, greatest comebacks in sports history. |
| 1:46.1 | You put the Patriots 283 Super Bowl, the Red Sox, as much as I hate to say it, as a Yankee fan, 2004 ALCS coming back 03, and the Knicks, erasing a 29-point deficit, shell-shocking, |
| 1:53.4 | soul-snatching the spurs. |
| 1:55.4 | What I tell you when we won game one, see ya, first team all heart. |
| 1:59.6 | The Knicks never quit. |
| 2:03.7 | I am dumbfounded. Children will be named ogua o g stands for ogugua look at the record birth names in new york city uh yeah call me |
| 2:12.1 | o gugua from now on i i have nothing else to say i'm so happy tom your reaction from last night |
| 3:42.3 | yeah well you know i'm rooting for the n too. I'm texting with a lot of Knicks fans. And, you know, before the fourth quarter, I said, you know, the Knicks have to kind of like where they are because they're only down 15. But then, see, the key to me was the Spurs went back up by 20 in the fourth. I know everybody will talk about the 29 points because that's the biggest comeback. But being down 20 in the fourth, that's when I texted, well, it's over. Got to win game five on the road now. That to me just shows the heart of that team. Listen, you know, I was talking with people this weekend, you know, New York Knicks fans, they just have something special. You know, sometimes when you can just see a team has something beyond talent, and that's what this Knicks team has. So listen, if you're going to lay five and a half with the Spurs in Game 5, you either hate the Knicks or you hate money. I don't know what to tell you. It's just going to. Ray Brown in the chat says, greatest implosion in sports history. It's certainly up there. Buckets. Buckets, I'm sure you caught the game last night. Your reaction to the next game. I had to ask Danny who OG was, and then I had to ask what sport you guys were talking about. So no react. The World Cup starts today. See, I don't care about anything else. So I saw your spreadsheet that you put out on Twitter, probably some other places too. You are locked and loaded for this World Cup. I am, see it. Do you mind if I do my little monologue? I practice in the mirror this morning. Go ahead. Ladies and gentlemen, the weight is finally over. Today, the world's biggest sporting event begins. For the next month, billions. |
