0:00.0	A very good morning, everyone.
0:11.3	Happy Wednesday and welcome to the Early Edge.
0:13.9	We are always brought to you by BetMGM, the sports book Born in Vegas.
0:17.7	We got a great show for you today, a huge MLB lineup, and we got two of our best
0:22.3	with respect to the MLB, and we got the PGA playoffs coming up the FedEx Cup playoffs. It's going to
0:27.8	be me and Taft talking about that, but let's talk about how we did yesterday. I got to say,
0:32.8	McKenzie has the plus 15 and a half. Connecticut Sun, lose by 16, lose by by the hook there. We're three and four. It's certainly not a terrible day. The two sports line picks come through. Calvin's pick comes through, but it's still a losing day. We still lost you a little bit of money, and we've got to improve on that. And ladies and gentlemen, we've got just the team to do it. All of you in the chat, buckle up because we got

1:18.0	What's going on with your Cubs?
1:19.8	My emotions tell me that the brewers are definitely going to win the division, but honestly,
1:24.7	the analyst in me says they're now 44 and 16 in their last 60 games,
1:29.6	and that's an outrageous pace, and there's no way they can keep playing this well.
1:33.5	But I keep saying that, and then every day we wake up, and the first thing I look at the score,
1:38.9	the Brewers are up like 5-0 in the third inning or something ridiculous.
1:42.4	So I think you have to ride the Brewers for now.
1:45.3	The Cubs offense seems broken. And I will get to that later. But I did want to say,
1:50.1	happy Dennis Gentry days away from the NFL season.
1:54.1	29 days away from NFL season. Dennis Gentry, was he on that 85 Bears team as well?
2:00.1	I'm always going to go to that if I can
