Good morning, everyone.

0:10.3

Welcome to the Early Edge.

0:11.8

My name is Cienajad, and we are brought to you by BetMGM, Make It Legendary.

0:16.8

Let's see how we did on the recap screen before we bring in the stars of the show.

0:22.0

We go six and four.

0:23.1

I hit my first five buckets.

0:24.6

Another two and oh.

0:25.5

Brad Thomas, two and oh, which includes a plus 200.

0:28.5

We lose a couple of juicy plays in the WNBA and in college baseball.

0:32.9

Certainly make up for it with an even money play, a plus 200 play.

0:36.6

Shout out to Jeff Hockman for taking the twins

0:38.5

plus one and a half. Listen, we'll take six and four. We're always trying to improve on it. How about a pick? How about a pick before we bring in the stars of the show? Let's see what Sportsline has to offer. Of course, Sportsline has many more picks to offer, but here's one we cherry picked for the show courtesy of prop bet guy Shane McClanahan under 15 and a half outs at minus

0:57.2

one 17. Here's one we cherry picked for the show, courtesy of prop bet guy. Shane McClanahan under 15 and a half outs at minus 117. Again, go to sportsline.com slash join to join up. If you haven't already, let's join the stars of the show. Let's bring them in. We've got a great cast today, folks. We've got Mackenzie Brooks. We've got Adam Thompson. We've got Am-Mags and we've got John Buckets. Imer. Listen,

1:14.5

Buckets, I was going to go to you first, but we had some breaking news late last night.

1:18.4

Janice Ante Coupo is now a member of the Miami Heat. Adam Thompson, I need some reaction.

1:24.7

As a Wisconsin guy, you know, it was a day that was going to come. It was inevitable. And I thought the return they got for it was good enough. I mean, the heat had been after Janus for years. You know, they did not make, you know, this was not hidden. It was not a surprise that they wanted him. And the Bucks really milked it for a long time and i got i think

1:46.0

the haul they got was good and now for miami uh you know kudos to them this is their time they have him

1:50.6

and bam lebron all of a sudden is a rumor now uh that he might leave l a i don't think that's gonna happen

1:55.9

but uh it's it's stirring interest uh in south beach a lot might happen today we've got the n draft tonight. Mackenzie, quick reaction, Janus to Miami. I guess it wasn't a huge surprise. I don't know that Miami's a contender necessarily, but certainly makes their team a lot more interesting. Yeah, I mean, to say a deep playoff run, I don't know if I'm there yet, also relying on the sky to stay healthy, but you now technically

2:17.6

have two guys on your roster that can score 50 plus between him and BAMP. So that's huge news for Miami. Yeah, I mean, the way BAM put up some points against the Wizards, maybe 50 plus is conservative. We got McKenzie for soccer today. We've got Adam Thompson for NBA draft props. If you have any he put him in the chat. I know he has at least one.

2:35.0

He's got a recommendation, a lien to get out, but he's also got baseball. Amags has baseball. I have baseball in buckets. You have two things. You have soccer picks. We're going to have a lot of questions in the chat for you, of course, pertaining to the World Cup, UN McKenzie. But it's interesting. We were talking pre-show, and you told me that not everybody is watching the World Cup in the same way. Talk to me about V-tubers. Yeah, before I get started into this, just know that I am brand new to this, so I apologize for anyone I offend when I inevitably mess all of this up. But have any of you heard of V-Tubers before? That's totally fine. I had neither, and that's okay. I just want to talk about the beauty of the World Cup, because it's very cliche, and everyone always says, The World Cup, it brings everyone together. All walks of life all come to enjoy the beautiful game. I know it's cliche, but it's true, and we're seeing that with all the different fans celebrating and all the love here in North America. But yesterday I was watching the Argentine and Austria match, and half time. I was doing my research because I had to talk about it later on Galato, and so I pulled up YouTube, and I got a recommended video. And I apologize, because I'm going to say this name wrong. It was Takanashi Kiyara from Hollow Live doing a V-tuber watch-along. No idea what this meant, but I was like, watch-along. That's cute. We do those for Galazzo. You know, I did once and not to brag. I got like 500 viewers feeling pretty good about myself. She had 15,000 viewers watching along with her while she was screaming her support for the Austrian national team. And it blew my mind because this is a

3:58.5

community that I didn't even know existed. I'm in my little CBS bubble here. I think that I'm a big deal. And then I see someone just showing an amount of love and support for their nation that I cannot fathom. And I just think it's such a beautiful thing that we see the beautiful game shared in so many different facets of different ways that I don't even know about. So Ben, if you can throw the picture up on the screen real quick to show everyone, yeah, it's like, so it's like V-tubers are animated people to sound dumb that watch shows and play. I just think it's such a beautiful thing that things exist that I don't even think about Cia. So just thought that was kind of awesome to see in the space. Well, Bucketts, what's also really cool is some of those people, I guess you must have
