Good morning, everyone.

0:10.4

Welcome to the early edge.

0:12.2

We are brought to you by BedMGM, Make It Legendary.

0:14.9

My name is Cia Najat, and I see Jen is in the chat.

0:17.6

Lucas, Jeffrey, Jason, Gippers' Picks is in here, along with Martin. Hit the like button if you could. Let's see if you like the recap screen before we bring in the stars of the show. Both of our hockey picks, you could argue should have won, especially that Ottawa pick from Jeff Hockman. It doesn't come through. So we go three and four overall. Chip misses his, buckets, hits his. Again, he's on a nice little run. Sports line picks go two out of three. Again, a couple of hockey bounces the right way, and we go, what, five and two potentially. But that's a lot of coulda, what or shoulda. Let's bring in the stars of the show and get things started because we got a nice mix here on a Wednesday. Tafgant is here. B buckets with his awkward

0:56.6

smile is here. We got Mikey B and we got Danny Abrasco buckets. I'm sorry to lead that way,

1:02.3

but it was awkward. How are you doing, my friend? You can't apologize and then do the same thing

1:07.2

every single time I'm going to show. That doesn't show actual growth. You're not sincerely apologetic.

1:12.4

Go to the next person.

1:13.3

I'm done with you. Deft Gant. Buckets isn't wrong. How you doing today? Listen, you're here. I know you cover a lot of stuff, but we've got golf this week. We've got golf next week, too. Did you come here with some golf picks? Wouldn't miss it. This is the last day to get some golf bets in before it starts tomorrow.

1:28.4

And then what's a Wednesday in November without a little bit of match. We got that coming too. Oh, but there's a game I've got my eyes on, and I'm hoping you are, you've got a pick in that game. We're going to wait and see. Danny Brasco, rumor on the street is that you're not going to be here on Friday for BPE Friday, which is extremely disappointing.

1:47.3

But you're going to make up for it because the plays you were going to give out on Friday, correct me if I'm wrong, you're going to give out today.

1:53.1

Yeah, man, we have UFC 32, Madison Square Garden in my backyard.

1:57.9

My friends are like, should we go to the presser?

2:00.1

Are you going to be there, Danny? I'm going to be at a freaking wedding in Chicago. Unreal. Unreal. So right when they start doing the announcement at the reception, that's probably when the prelands are going off, and I'll be making my own announcement that I suffer from IBS and I'll be having to make frequent trips to the bathroom to watch Fight for Fight. So, yeah, I'm going to miss the speeches. This is, I'm just, I'm going to fire up picks today, guys, and I'm going to be talking main event, co-main event, everything. But I'm devastated. Real quick, by the way, Mikey B, that reminds me of you having to go to the comedy show during a game. But, Danny, is the wedding on a Friday night or Friday afternoon. Saturday night while the fights are. This is the card of the year. JDM versus Islam, Makachev, pound for pounds, going up to welterweight. Valentina versus Wei, Superfight, women's flyweight, goat's going at it. And I'm going to be listening to freaking Uncle Steve giving a speech.

2:52.6

Also, it's just a lot of, it's just bad for them.

2:54.4

A lot of good college football games are going.

2:56.5

On the Sportsline YouTube channel, we've got the college football picks show out for you.

2:57.9

So make sure you check that out.

2:58.9

Mikey B, you're here with some NBA.

3:00.7

How are you doing today?

3:02.0

I'm good, thanks.
