I'll now hand you over to my best man, Eddie.

0:04.0

Wow, wow, wow, second time's a charm, eh, Billy Boy?

0:09.0

Oh God.

0:10.0

Substitution, courtesy of Paddy Power, embarrassing Eddie, makes way for sensible Samuel.

0:15.0

Cool, that was close.

You might not always pick the right starter, but your sub can still deliver.

analysts today. We've got a full compliment, and we got somebody added in here, and I know he's

0:50.9

a regular on Friday, but I'm not a regular on a Friday. So to me,

1:30.9

this is new. Let me introduce him first. Zach Attack. Zach Cimini, how you doing, buddy? Oh, wow. Thanks for the shout out there. See, yeah, I know it's EC Inspector every day, but Friday's Larry and I occasionally jump on. So I'm glad to be part of the show, guys. all right jason specter is back with us. Specty, Nick Jonas, how are we doing today? Oh, we're doing fantastic. It's a good day. Another play in. I can't wait to see the playoffs finally all the way set so we can get on to figure out who's going to win that championship. EC, so I'm curious because I know you've kind of been boycotting the NBA until the actual playoff start. Has it started yet? Or do we have to wait tonight out? Well, no, we're going to

2:10.9

Early Edge in general, watch it to the end. And I say that now because we might have a special

2:16.5

guest joining us in a few minutes, but EC., you're my special guest right now. Let's hear your picks. Well, in honor of you, I'm actually going to throw in a pick after I'm done with my first three that I would recommend that's not going to be on the recap screen. Just for that approach.
