| 0:00.0 | What's up, everyone? Welcome to the Early Edge. We are brought to you by BetMGM, Make It Legendary. As you know, our chat is always legendary. And I love to see the comments especially the ones wishing jen a happy birthday happy |
| 0:23.0 | birthday jen you are a big part of this community both in the sports line discord on this show and |
| 0:27.6 | everywhere sports line very sharp as well so happy birthday to you shout out to james rainwater who |
| 0:33.5 | says i can't wait for baseball season because he wants the home run parley's. |
| 0:38.5 | You love to hear it. I'm sure Sniper and Amag's love to hear that too. You'll see them very soon. Let's see how we did on the recap screen. We go four and three. Larry goes one for two. Propy hits his play. Mikey B. Two for two. I lose my prop. I was on a nice little prop run, came to a crashing halt there |
