| 0:00.0 | Welcome into this Tuesday edition of Push in the Pile, brought to you by Fandall Sportsbook. Make every moment more. |
| 0:22.2 | Mike Runner, J.P. Acosta, rolling through a little Monday night football preview today. |
| 0:27.0 | Your excuse me, review. Gosh, what day is it? Tuesday here. We're doing a little NFL tiers list, |
| 0:32.4 | as we always do on our tiers Tuesday shows. Oh my God, I cannot talk today. |
| 0:36.0 | Probably should restart the show, but we're going to to power through upon further review segment coming back today as well where we go through |
