| 0:00.0 | Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the early edge. |
| 0:12.7 | It is going to be a great Tuesday, and that's in part because NBA season is back, |
| 0:18.2 | which means a special contributor is back as well. |
| 0:21.7 | Let's take a look at the recap screen and see how we contributed to your wallet yesterday. |
| 0:25.9 | Listen, me losing the Baker Mayfield over one and a half touchdown passes. |
| 0:29.4 | That's what happens when you're on a cold streak. |
| 0:31.3 | I can't believe that didn't come in. |
| 0:33.4 | Mike McClure with the worst beat of the year maybe, or at least least top 10 there with the over in the first quarter of cashing at the last second, literally.

| 1:33.8 | We see a lot of Mikey B. |
| 1:35.8 | in exclamation points in the chat. |
| 1:38.0 | Chip Patterson, you went four and oh last time you were on the show. |
| 1:41.4 | Oh, dear. |
| 1:42.1 | That's weird. |
| 1:43.0 | Not one, not two, not three, |
