V sent.com game plus I hard radio YouTube TV series except channel 158 Gill Alexander and my little buddy Kelly Billet. Amen brought you by Profit X. The show is I know me my little buddy Kelly Billet. I'm having difficulty moving today by the way. What's wrong? You're a little buddy. No little man. Get Jack get swole in the gym bro. I get his swole gym bro these days man. I kind of tweaked something in the neck the other day. Do you have a different personality in the gym? No, what I reckon I know. No, I think I have first of all, we've had multiple listeners that have approached me in the gym. I would like to think I'm very much the same same person. I'm not. No, no, there's bizarre
things that happen that you overlifted. I went beast mode on Sunday after going out late on Saturday night and I just day shoulder pressed way too hard way too hard right away and I felt so some something go right that neck. I can't I can't lift arm higher than that. Ladies just falling down when they see as always just another Tuesday. We get sweet speed to the book master of puppets. Well, I had to take a shot Florida state hoops. He's got it at. What does he have it at? A hundred to one. Yeah, best I could get was one 25 hundred to one. I comically got limited. Shmo Shmo Hawks as I heard the reply on the show to my question about the NHL and tanking. Thanks so much for that boys. Welcome. Cody Betts football. Cody Holloway say hey, Gil, he says, Hey, Gil, thanks so much for reading my tweet. On air last week and telling me that you guys like hearing people's specialties, it inspired me to get back into writing and journalism covering my indoors lash arena football bets. Hey, I'm glad we glad we said something that inspired you like that. Thank you, Cody for that. Tim Bowers, I think Amy Madigan should win for
giving off the creeps. She's all about it. She was amazing in that movie. And I didn't think that movie was all that great. And James Sott love how in the Indian Wells Megapod, everyone said who knows for Q2 and offhandedly you said, Gil, probably Paulinean, here we are. She has a chance. Let's go Alex, though. Yeah, that was before the quarter odds came out. As soon as the quarter odds came out, I was all about my girl, Alex, Andrea, and that's the one we're trying to get home for sure. So much to get to with Drew. And I just want to bring in Drew here momentarily, but we've got an hour with the show. We haven't even talked NFL. Everything that happened yesterday. This is a good way to segue into Drew. Mike Evans, of course, famously a book in ear for his career, three year deal with the Niners worth up to 60 million. Three years for three years. Wow. I mean, I love Mike Evans. I do too, but my goodness, three, you're playing the three years down the road with Mike Evans. Okay. Kenneth Walker, we mentioned to the chiefs yesterday, Tyler Lindobam, who's who I wanted, Lindobam, who's, that's who I wanted the skins to get.
He ends up with the Raiders. By the way, the Raiders, man, just paying, just paying, they end up with Kway with Tyler Lindobam with Jalen Naylor, Nikobe Dean, Quitte Pay. I think we can officially say the Raiders no longer suck at football. Superb. Obviously. It's your bets. It's not go crazy. It's your bets, and you know, it's not go crazy. The other big ones that happened yesterday, too, Travis at the end goes from the Jags to the Saints, and Tua ends up with the Falcons. Does that make any sense to you that Tua ends up with the Falcons? Why would you want a guy behind Penex that is going to, like unless, if you think Penex is your guy, would you want Tua breathing down his neck? Is that the correct phrase? Would you want that? I think it's a, I think it's an interesting conversation, because it really is, what it, does it, first of all, does it say anything about what they think about Penex? And I don't know that it does. Maybe it does. I don't know that it does. I tend to think it
doesn't, but yeah, man, you could easily put yourself in a situation where Penex is going to be feeling the heat from Tua. And guess what? At the end of the day, I mean, it could be complete disaster, right? He could be feeling the heat from Tua, play badly. You have to put Tua in and then guess what? Tua still sucks and you're back at square one. You know what I'd like to know? If any of this, anything that happened yesterday, perhaps moved the needle with NFL draft thoughts still over a month away. Mark, it's not widely spread, but maybe it induced some thoughts. Drew Dinsick, if only we had him on the show right now. Oh, we do. Host of the deep dive podcast, which he does with Andy Molotor, and of course, NBC Sports bet the edge, which he does with Jay Croucher. Whale underscore cap are on Twitter. Drew joins us down courtesy of aggressive gas line. Druski, how you doing, man? I'm great. Great to see you guys. Yeah. So many, so many, so much to talk about today. Usually, yeah, people think of this as the dead time of year, but there is a so much enormous amount of cooking in the NFL and the NBA and in tennis. And those are my three favorite things to talk about. So I don't think you also liked Amy Madigan. You said, or you just said
she was the favorite as well. The acting, the acting market odds were like, broke my brain. Sean Penn went from healthy favorite to huge dog to stone scars guard to minus 300 over the course of like two weeks. I'm like, well, what? What? Are people like writing blogs about who they voted and people are counting votes? Like how in the world can there be this much you know, kind of impetus for movement in these awards that might be Jordan flipping Timothy Shalame was absolutely shocking. I did not think that was coming whatsoever. And yeah, Madigan flipping Tiana Taylor also absolutely wild to me. I kind of will believe the sinners gets awards to the degree that they're expected to when I see it. I think I think a lot of the you know, kind of pat on the back for sinners was the number of nominations. And they may be not not
pulling in quite as many awards as the market currently. Thanks. But I'm speculating because I again, like if you told me that this was going to happen with the odds moving the way that they did in the last month, I wouldn't have believed it. It's pretty interesting. It's always an interesting market to follow. And Lord knows how much money actually moves it so dramatically. That's the other thing. Yeah. Right. How linked also my friend at Pricewaterhouse Cooper counted said your ghost is going to win best director. I don't know if you guys caught with that. But no, no, I did. What's that? What's that about? That's a that's a throwback to a to a Twitter joke from days of old. Somebody's on back in, everyone five times used to exist. Of course, technical as I used to call them. Yeah. Somebody basically made a fake blog post that your was going to win the best director that they had inside information on it. And then oh, I remember this clicked and clicked and clicked and clicked on five times to kind of move them from 25 to one to like minus 180. And then the rest of the market all kind of reacted in this panic
that it was real. It was not. And it opened up a betting opportunity of a lifetime on the guy who should have been minus 20. We were at the south point when that was that was a a early day betting scandal, if you will, for the Oscars. I remember it. Tony. Okay. Let's get to the what I was just saying about the NFL. Anything in free agency here thus far has has anything moved the draft needle for you in terms of maybe changing your thoughts about what a team might want now. Well, certainly the jets. I mean, the jets have spent now a lot of money on edges. I'm not, I think that probably takes them out of the David Bailey market. It was kind of kicked back and forth that they're going to go resurbally as far as their edge choice. Reese is a little bit more of a flexible piece in terms of what he can do. So I don't know that signing edges takes him out of the picture, but I think it makes the likelihood that they take sunny styles a lot higher. And he's 11 to 1 right now, which feels like a long shot. I have no one with any inside information
from the jets has said anything. So this is entirely speculative. And I'm not sure that I believe in the this idea that they've already decided on Reese, particularly with the moves they made. Most of free agency I thought was pretty noisy and nothing. And it always is. Like the like most of the free agent moves are players that teams are willing to let move and teams that have a lot of cash that need talent and signing players and they have end up having a relatively limited if any impact on winning the next year. The the deal that raised my eyebrows and most was Tyler Linnebaum. I did not know he was worth that much. That's a lot. I took a lot of teams out of this. I'm kind of surprised. And in general, like the same with Taylor, I mean, my gut reaction to what the Raiders paid for players and free agency is that they're having to pay a premium to get players, which is bad, a bad, you know, kind
paradigm to find yourself in. Yeah. Yeah. And then outside of that, it was, you know, it was kind of a lot of, you know, just a little bit surprised the chiefs are letting their defense try on the vine. I guess they think they have a strong enough system that they're just going to be able to backfill cornerbacks, no problem at all. The interesting that the Rams are kind of going all in with fortifying near secondary as well. They look pretty clearly like your likely favorite as we open a market on the 2026 championship. And I think the Seahawks are kind of fascinating too because obviously the team is for sale. They have a absent, you know, war chest of capital available if they were to spend it. But I feel like they're specifically not. And I don't know if that's because they have some sort of plan to retain their existing players and give them all raises. Or if they literally are just trying to keep the books clean, to help, you know, kind of get a reasonable sale price for the franchise. But,
yeah, it looks to me like the Seahawks might be might be a one and done based on sort of the way they're operating. And the West is going to be an arms race between Rams and Niners. Last draft question. Jeremiah love. Could he go to the Titans at four or Washington at seven now? Those are those are both very, very reasonable landing spots. I don't know how likely. I don't know how prioritize running back is going to be even if he is just a truly a generational player. The positional group that I think is going to kind of get the biggest bump from what we've seen so far as cornerbacks. It looks like the cornerback draft is very rich with talent. And the way that the kind of the teams with money to spend have not really addressed that issue to me makes it likely that they're all going to be in the cornerback drafting department. Interesting.
As a Washington guy, I was like, I already had my my heart set on one of the Ohio State defensive players. But now it's like, all right, Saints behind them got Travis Etienne chiefs behind them end up with Kenneth Walker, the third. And I'm just thinking I'm like, well, Jeremiah love will be nice behind behind Jaden. But can they really afford is that really what they're going to end up in the draft? I mean, it's great. Don't get me wrong. But you're right. I mean, there's the corners might be the thing that is that elevated the most here thus far. Still over a month away, we'll find out we know what's going on. We know who's going one to the Raiders in Mendoza. But we don't know much right after that anyway at this point drew on tennis and the NBA next. You're here because you want an edge. That's what separates listeners from winners. But let's be real mindset alone doesn't get bets home pros win because they've got the tools, the data and the discipline.

Okay. All right. Let's see. I got my one bomb. Like it. Bobby Knuckles. I think Kelly's the guy grunting too loud at the gym. Yeah, you might be right. Sounds like Kelly. Rob sometimes got to let him know you're there. You know, got to let him know. Got to let him know. Give you some space. You don't get to you don't get to fight. So the just phesic gets in fights at the gym because people like hog hog machines. He's like, you know, can I can I work with self in? And they're like, I'm where I'm using the machine. Phesic gets upset. He goes and goes into Caesar's palace every day to work out. Yes, he do.
And then he's and then he's that guy who's put in the person on the treadmill on the clock. That he do. Sounds about right. Los Vegas 504. Yo, to follow up 1.7 miles, seven turn Grand Prix course in DC passing landmarks like the capital in the Washington Monument. So don't play to come in home. The weekend. Walk is 22nd, 23rd. God help us. Sheesh. So they're going to do a Grand Prix race over in the monuments. So that's it. Uh, that's in northwest DC. I mean, that's a nice backdrop. I guess it ain't Vegas though. That's for sure. Mm-hmm. Jeff LeBine, after her latest win of y'all exclaim that her dream is to win Wimbledon. I found her at 200 to one will grass mitigate some of her serving weakness. And is this a good pizza money stab? Well, that's not her service. She can't serve. That's the only problem. But she is. I'll say it again. She might be the biggest draw in women's tennis right now. Seriously, globally. She will soon be that if she's not that already. But until she has that elite served, not going to win anything. Chance copperpot. Not a big one. Does the two assigning have anything
to do with them wanting another left hand in quarterback to go along with Pennix might be something to that thought they would go after Murray. There's definitely something to that. It was why Washington grabs Marcus Mariotto as many years as they can, right? Same. It fits seamlessly behind Jaden Daniels. Um, that part makes it. That part makes sense. But still, you know, I still wonder if that's that what you want behind Pennix. And Ben Wilson correcting me. He's at the whack starting tomorrow at the venerable Orleans. We'll be on the show 1130 Eastern on Thursday. There you go. You think we can get him to talk betting on his tournament that he's calling. You think I can do that? Hey, Ben, I want to risk your job and talk about betting odds. Drew Densey kind enough to join us. Once again, Drew, here are my three picks in tennis. Today, two on the men's side, one on the lady's side. I'm on Arthur Arthur feasts against Felix, Oji Ali, I see him. I'm a learner TN against 100 of it, a bit of itch for Kena. And I'm on Alex Yala versus Linda Noscova. What do you think? Love feasts. Love Yala against you with TN. And uh, biggest bet for me is in Boko over
Anna Simova. I have that. I lined that as plus 101 minus 101. It's the closest to a coin flip that I've had in tennis this year. And so Drew's big one is on in Boko Victoria in Boko against Alexander and Nissa Mova. Today is the, the business end of tennis is fifth major tennis paradise begins today, round of 16. What a day today is today and tomorrow are both like. Wow. Yes. Incredible matches. Yeah. Uh, are you and I both going to be on Jack Draper tomorrow against Novak? Jokovic? I believe I will be. Uh, yes. Although boy is Jokovic playing a little bit of possum. Um, it's got that arm sleeve. It's got the whole thing down. Yeah. Oh, he's seen. He's like, Oh, I can't, can't beat this kid. Oh, it's five four. I'll just win. Oh, my doing it. It's so true. It's, it's really something. That dude, that dude is something. Yeah, no, I like, I like Draper has looked sharp. Um, the out, you know, but I'll, I'll be it inconsistent,
right? Like it was some nerves. I thought it was opening match yesterday. He was just, he was diabolical. Um, Alkarez in his match against a Dimitrov. Did you see that one in person? Yes. I was at that one. I don't know that I've seen anyone play better tennis in the last three years that you played in that match. And I'll give you a set that was better. Shalfan Sake is first set against Tommy Paul was better than that. Okay. Yeah. Wow. Yes. All right. That was incredible. But yes, Alkarez, Alkarez, Alkarez played with his food in the first set yesterday against Rinder Knessy before turning it on. Yeah. It was a, it was a notably lower level than, well, yeah, against Dimitrov, which I thought was kind of surprising. Uh, you're not given fun. Sake a much of a shout today against sinner. You know, I am. I actually mentioned this yesterday. I'm, I'm not betting it because sinner has this way. As you know, very well of making a guy that looks spectacular. Look at the, the Bublick example of the US Open is the best one. Bublick is just destroying people. Then he faces sinner and at the net after the game,
Bublick says to sinner, I'm not even that bad man. Like, what did you just do to me? So I worry about that. So I did not make a play on, uh, on the show. Okay. But I thought it was a big praise. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What about you, Drew? You were Mr. Zhao, uh, like a year ago, I feel like, oh, I mean, you, you, you obviously weren't paying attention. You won Basil. You're right. Oh, she's, you see him. He, he, he, he, what, he won the, he won the doubles in Rio. Yeah. He didn't get that. He's, he's, he's progressing. He's progressing. Okay. No, he's, I, no, yeah. No, Zhao is, uh, he's been dealing with, uh, kind of chronic back injury, which is why I haven't really been like super in, into trying to bet him or, or, you know, um, you know, um, more than willing to give him time to kind of grow up and get a grow in his body. Yeah. Uh, and, um, and also get a, get a second weapon. Cause right now he's forehand only, um, and the more tape there is, the harder it's going to be for him to, you know, kind of beat the
best on tour. Um, but, uh, you know, the fact that, you know, he is kind of in the mix with that elite of a weapon. Um, it is, uh, is exciting, uh, because, yeah, I think we all would love to see, uh, you know, a, a third musketeer here, uh, with Alcraz in center. Um, Gil, we were texting about, uh, kind of, uh, career earnings. Yes. Uh-huh. And, uh, I just, I had to look it up because I was curious. Did you know Alcraz is already fifth all time? It's like Ega's fourth all time. Because it, because the money, it's because the thousands money now is so much more than it was than that's what it is. Wild. Yeah. The big four have earned more than Alcraz, but Alcraz being fifth at age, whatever he is, 22, 23 is, is absolutely crazy. It's absolutely crazy. Twenty three million dollars. Oh, it's more than that. More than that. Yeah. Yeah. Ega, we're, we're like probably 50, 50, 60. Ega's 40, 50 somewhere in there already. Okay. So Alcraz, yeah. Bit higher. Women's is serena's 90 something and then like two, three, four, all 40,
50s. It's not kind of thing. Serena just way ahead. Yeah. Alcraz is up to 63.3 NBA tonight. Fueled by seven Grand Slam titles. Is it six or seven? That was six, six, seven, seven, seven. Two French, two Wimbledon, two US and now an Australian. Let me count those. Let me do the addition for everybody. That is seven. Two plus two plus two plus one is seven. Uh, let me move so Embokos Drew's big play today. Then I didn't, uh, let's, let's go to the NBA because I want to get to your NBA plays in Drew before we leave. Hmm. Anything today. Celtics, Celtics, NBA championship preview tonight, right? Celtics first. I mean, you got to be feeling pretty good, especially the prices you got for now. I feel, uh, I mean, the thunder is going to be tough to beat. But, uh, why good is gracious. Every time you see the spurs, they look better. I think the Celtics do pop the bubble tonight. Um, uh, my fair rating for the Celtics right now is plus nine and a half. My fair rating for the spurs is plus nine. So I think the Celtics are slightly better than the spurs.
You're going to give me points on the road with them. I'll take them. Uh, and, uh, but, you know, this is, this is the game of, uh, you know, but really a nice job by the NBA kind of locking into some of these matchups this week. Like yesterday's, uh, thunder nuggets was unbelievable. This game is unbelievable. Um, this is the right time of year to be kind of flexing a little bit, uh, as interest starts to increase, um, Celtics, of course, if you haven't already, if you've been having them paying attention, Jason Tatum is back and he looks fine to me, um, that should surprise no one. Uh, he was a young man who heard his Achilles and worked tirelessly to get back to, uh, help this team pursue a championship. If you don't already have Celtics in pocket, I'm sorry. You haven't been listening to the shows. Uh, because this was, this was like, this is one of the ones that you could have seen coming, uh, quite a long way away. And so, uh, no, no, um, no tears shed on my, on my behalf. If you don't already have some Celtics in pocket and, uh, yeah, spurs look amazing too. But I think the Celtics game tonight, uh, I like the, uh, the
Hawks probably my biggest play of the night. Uh, they were eight and a half when I bet them. I think that number should be closer to 15. Um, I don't understand really why people aren't taking the Hawks seriously. They are good. And the Mavs are not. Um, the, uh, the, uh, the other kind of interesting look is the Lakers, but I'm waiting for confirmation that LeBron will not be playing. The Lakers are substantially better with LeBron James on the bench. Period. Wow. Wow. Good thing Chris Voster is not in today. He would have just exploded. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, nine and two, nine and two with the other two without him. Yeah. Someone with Reeves and Dodgers without LeBron. Reeves and Dodgers together. Man. That is chemistry. Drew, thank you. Appreciate it. Enjoy the tennis man. Drew Dinsing, everybody. Best of luck. Yes. You too. Come back. A numbers game on Fisand. These sports betting network. Oh, it's good right here. You're

Good stuff. Was I supposed to ask you, ladies and gentlemen, by the way, the show brought you by Prophet X because I supposed to ask you on air about what the crew's been up to. Oh, yes, you were. Yeah, it's been a lot of movie talk recently. So this, uh, this works very well for this. Chris Foster, our normal audio guy, not here today, not here today. Yeah. Do you know what he's doing right now? And when I, when I asked this question this morning, uh, Larry and Dornell could not have told me more relaxed and nonchalant about what he's doing today. He is an extra in a film that is shooting this morning, this morning, this afternoon with like last, oh, last night, it was, it was late last night at MGM at Hawkesaw, apparently, and Nikki Glazer was in it. I don't know, some like some actual like actors. Kim Kardashian. Kim Kardashian's in it. Yeah, Kim Kardashian. Well, that might be worth the time. The thing is though, have you ever, you know,
what being an extra is like? Oh, yeah, I'm sure it's miserable. You stand around for hours, 12 hours at a time. And then they tell you to stand one place. I'm sure for a few minutes. And then God forbid you do anything you're not supposed to. Like I see Chris try to like inject himself to be like, sir, please act normal. I would be able to stay still. I'd be talking to everybody. It'd be like, Kim, I'm like, walk in. I'm like, Rob and I both look at each other. I'm like, did they, did they just say that? Like it was like, it was just a regular Tuesday. Like, Chris is just off today because he's in a movie. He's in a movie right now or last night. Chris Foster coming to a theater near you. I don't understand the whole extra thing. I don't know why people get jazzed up about that. I don't. They're waiting for Chris. Wait, stop the tape. It's fun for him. Good for us. See that head in the back right of your screen. That's me. I'm with you. It's not, it sounds like an idea that would be fun to do once. Yeah. But yeah, after going through that process, I would probably have no desire to do it ever again. No, you
would not. You would not. I'd like to be a little Easter egg in a boofy though. You know, just like in the background, me like walking in the streets and you just being the theaters one day. Like, is that Kelly? Is that Kelly bill? We get tweets being the book, David Montgomery, not that David Montgomery, we don't think. Another great appearance from Drew. The man knows tennis basketball and women's lose. And on top of that, he's a seismologist. Now that's a brain worth picking. And Trotsky, hey, get a love. The tennis talk with Drew today. This year's Indian Wells is surpassing expectations. Feast FAA going to be a banger. Zhao to test center, Mimboco and it's a Mova Chen Fukina. Just incredible matches today. Hashtag go Eiga. Yeah, Eiga got it done yesterday. All that true, by the way, Trotsky Eiga got it done yesterday. Took down Maria Sockery and straight sets. He's in the round of 16. We have heard of win her quarter and a win at all as well. So far, so good after winning day yesterday as well in the desert. And I'll say it again, because I didn't talk about it much. But I went there for my third, it was my third time in four years. Me and Debra Song fashion style. This went to Indian Wells.
It's the, it's simultaneously the busiest, but also the most incredible sporting event you can attend. Because what other, what other sporting Alcaraz sinner and joke of itch in a span of like 18. Awesome. Yeah. I gotta get it. It's incredible. It's incredible. I can do that. And it's parent 10 is heaven. Well, I'm living in Vegas. I have to do that still in Del Mar. Still haven't done it. Oh, I have to do Del Mar too. Everybody says that. All the worst people are like, Oh, Del Mar. And then they always dot, dot, dot, dot, they always go, by the way, first day of Del Mar, just your heads on a swivel. They don't add that kind of thing. What does that mean? You just figured out there's so much going on. They just say the sites are beautiful. Ladies and gentlemen, Kelly Bidlin has tuned into my frequency finally. Got it. I'm just telling you what they tell it. I've never been. But that's what everybody goes. They always add that Del Mar was also with this site of I believe one of Chrissy Andrews great story times where like he feel like he had a few from you. He approached the hit man for his money back. He didn't know he was a hit man. Hey, you ever get that money from you?
I think that was Del Mar. That's great. That's right. MLB regular season wins match. These are head-to-heads basically. What would you call them are match bets? Yeah, I tell they list them. I just kept it consistent. This is at Draft Kings. We were supposed to do this yesterday. We didn't get around to it. But we'll get to it now while we have a moment between guests here. And there are far more than just these skills. But I took the Kelly poetic license and grabbed a few that I thought were more interesting. Okay. I'll just I haven't seen these. I'll just randomly comment Arizona minus 165 versus Tampa Bay plus 135. So this is just which of these clubs is going to end up with the most wins at the end of the regular season. 162 game schedule. I have no opinion on this because both teams just when you think they stink then show up. So I there's a couple franchise Tampa Bay's like the franchise. I have the least handle on from a year to year standpoint. So I would stay away from this. The Boston KC one. The next one. Oh, you're going to say now just to say this is what this is one. Though it's like both these teams. I feel like it'd been like very lightly brought up, but nobody really
sinking their teeth into a focus. There was being high on with the middleing middling at best in terms of season wins. Right. Tampa Bay even less than middling. Boston's Kansas City though. I do think they're I think there's some value on KC at plus 220 Boston is lined at 87 and a half season wins. But like the Joe Peters of the world, his favorite under is Boston. And all you hear is people loving Boston this year, but he is he is not high on them. So I think Kansas City plus 220 is a pretty interesting bet there. That one seemed long and then I'll jump you over one to the other column. The other I mean, San Diego Arizona like this is haven't we've been talking about for weeks like that these teams are not that far apart. They're all kind of middleing like you're giving plus 260 on the diamondbacks. I agree. San Diego should be the favorite, but not nearly that high. I know. 370. Yeah, it's crazy. But again, this is like, do you want to wait six months to play these when you win with all your dollars, your investment dollar betting or otherwise, you always have to consider the opportunity cost. Do you want this money tied up for six months? Maybe at plus
to set at plus 260 or plus 220 in the case of the royals against the Red Sox. Maybe you think, yeah, but I don't know. A lot of people are going to be like, yeah, I don't know if I want to do that. I think it's not an interesting alternative market for win total betting. It's kind of similar to what I do with golf, right? If I'm looking at top 20s or something like that, like, okay, maybe I don't love a top 20, but I can specifically isolate against one specific matchup that I like better except for let's say your handicap on a season win total is spectacularly great. And then you end up losing it because you decided to go ahead to head with some other team and you weren't right on the other team. Oh for sure. Yeah. Yeah. But just going through all angels wash in that's a, you know, a head to head that you cherry picked just to two teams sucking probably. I guess is what you're thinking. Yep. Bad teams. I think it's correct. I have Washington. It could be Washington could be God awful. And they could sell. I guess the one I was going with with this one girl is there that big a difference between angels and Washington. And then that big of a difference next one down, but Marlon's angels. I actually think Miami minus one 70 might be the play there.
Yeah. We heard some, we heard some people high on the Marlins. Mets Houston is interesting because Paul Sporer would tell you to bet Houston at plus one 10 there based on our conversation yesterday. Yaki Sox. I think that's correctly priced Yaki's Mets a little subway thing. I don't know about that one. I wouldn't touch. Let's see here. San Francisco. I would take minus one 30 over Cleveland. Stop it with the guardians. Stop it. Thought you'd like that one. Yeah. You could tell. Um, Texas plus one 20 over Baltimore at the bottom. I like. I think people are under rating Texas and maybe over rating Baltimore. Dare I say and then do you really trust the Pittsburgh with the one above that? Do you really trust the Pittsburgh pirates at plus one 15 over Tampa Bay? There is so much Pittsburgh pirates love. Oh yeah. I would take Tampa Bay and that one at minus one 45. That's a good call of all the ones on here. This is the one at end of season. We could look back and be like, yeah, there was a 20 wind difference between these teams. Yeah. I mean, you're right. It's an interesting market to look at.
We always try to tell you does a great job of scouring and then finding markets that we otherwise haven't touched. And the beauty of baseball may be more than any other. The sports is there a million of these markets. There's so many. I thought, I mean, I did think though the couple, the couple, the big favor ones I listed down there were aggressive. Like you immediately went to Royals over Boston, but you're three 10 to minus three 70 on the Padres over Arizona. You're correct. And identifying that one is why I think both dogs there. Casey plus 220 versus Boston Arizona plus 260 versus San Diego. Both represent value to me for sure. And I think they're two of the best bets on this board without question. But you're you were saying there's there's a million more of these. Yeah. Yeah. There's a ton more options. So if somebody's jumped out to you, you caught your eye, uh, go over to draft Kings. There are way more options. Mm hmm. It's always always interesting to see some of this stuff. I will come back. We'll talk NBA. Kelly's got some thoughts on the cards tonight, including from my lips to God, as they say. It's my mom used to say from my lips to God.
The NBA championship preview tonight between the Celtics and the Spurs. And by the way, it didn't surprise anybody. After one month, you have a rate of re rupture on Achilles, but 10 months in Kelly. My surgically repaired Achilles are stronger than your God-given Achilles at this point. Sure. I bet. I'm telling you, they are. That's how it works with Achilles.

Ladies and gentlemen, look behind the curtain into the brain of Kelly Billin. I asked Kelly. The fascinating spending habits. Kelly's telling me, I'm betting this, and then he says, I'm betting north of fees and tennis. And I said, oh, I'm always curious to find out which tennis you decide to play, which you don't. And so with fees, I guess both drew it. I like fees. That was probably why you played it. Oh, you guys were having the conversation. And then I looked at, you know, I pulled up the times, which is always important. Oh, because he liked Yala also like me. Too late. It was like eight o'clock tonight or something like that. I'm going to be wrapped up with NBA. I'm not going to catch the end of it. What's the point then? So yeah, I'm going to have this on. I'm going to be wrapping up some golf bets before we record long shots. I'm like,
Arthur fills. You're just a perfect time. Arthur fills because you're 11 a.m. Pacific. That's right. As opposed to 8 p.m. You played that one. So I'll be finishing up golf bets and I'll have that on the background. It's going to be a lovely little warm up for long shots. Peckable betting acumen. That's awesome. I'm all over the place today, man. I already got let's see people can relate to that by the way. I'm sure they can. Yeah. I'm sure they can. This is like this is like the, you know, it's the we're always talking about with Todd and his in game, Penny. Like I get him in when I get him in. Like when I'm sitting there and there's there's stuff going on and I can catch it and get the number I'm in. Otherwise, I don't and it's no offense. None taken. Well, you're like, I feel like Steve tried to really drive that wedge early in the area. You know, like, well, you know, two on Todd. Well, you know, two. It's like, it's not, it's nothing personal. Todd's fired too. Man, like it is. It is a lot to keep up a lot. You can't have a life. I mean, I would lay. I have had the direct notifications to my phone from Todd's group for the entire season. You know, I still like it. Todd is in town.
I said, when we play in tennis, he's like, I deserve some credit. He said, we have to play tennis this morning because it's our only chance to play tennis because otherwise it's a college basketball wall wall wall wall. We ain't getting in front of college basketball. Hey, guys can be busy. We had Tweed speed in the book, Brian Schaefer 31, whatever happened to Anjubor. Oh, I can tell you that. Oh, yeah. I asked this to go like six months ago. Anjubor indefinite break from the sport of tennis. The last time we saw her was a first round match at Wimbledon. And she quit. She retired. Unspecified physical pain and difficulty. Breathing. And then she announced right after the tournament, she was taking a break to prioritize her physical and mental health, noting that her quote, body was screaming for help, unquote, after battling injuries for two years, which had led to mental struggles and a loss of joy on the court. She's also announced that she is suffering from depression. There you go. Anjubor who got to, she got to three slam finals. Remember, it was two Wimbledons in a row. She lost a
rebockena and your girl, Marquette of Andre Sova, tats. And then she lost the U.S. Open final to EGA in 2022. So 14.3 million dollars in career. Oh, yeah, Tunisia, String fellow hawk, listening on delay, I think penics may never start another game. He's effectively a third year rookie coming off an injury. I'm not picking up his option. String fellow, what's my line about penics, whatever, the opposite of pocket presences. That's what he's got. I'm with you. Chris Heath says, I thought that was Bay Meadows or the Chrissy story. It might have been Bay Meadows. You're right. It might have been Bay Meadows, not Delmar. Still a great story. I think the Falcons quarterback situation's interesting. I do think it's interesting. Yeah. I guess the fact that you're getting you're getting two of for like nothing. Like, I don't, I don't know that that. Hey, two of things it's dope. His words. It's dope. I just, I think there's a lot we can talk about with this. But when he's coming in so cheap, I just don't know that any of it matters. And like penics might be a bust anyways already. Yes. Hey, two, what do you
think about not playing for the dolphins this year? I think it'd be dope. Well, here you go. And Jason H 11 pointing out when I was trying to convey to you about Delmar. He's done it visually. Thank you. Jason H 11. Appreciate that. Do you believe Kelly Billy? That it is a perhaps an NBA finals. Obviously, I have a 125 to one ticket on the Celtics meeting the Spurs and the NBA finals. It's not an exact. It's just a meat Christmas morning. Yeah, you did what I did. And I remember Christmas morning was the third match up between the Spurs and Celtics. I was already all about the Spurs. Well, I was still hearing all the Oklahoma City 74 win thing. And I'm like, that's not what I'm watching in these matchups. Just remember they had played in the cup. The first time I'm like, I trust the Spurs more. So I bet it then 125 to one tonight. Spurs three point favorites against Jason Tatum in the Celtics. Yeah, can't wait for this game. Kill. It sounds like, well, it sounds like Drew and I see it similarly, but we got different bets. I look, these are these are two of the top teams in the NBA. The Spurs are
currently my highest rated team in the NBA. That's where they're at the Celtics. I think are have looked great so far with with Tatum back. It's still to me. This is still a lot to ask heading into San Antonio with him with him just coming back and this team just getting together. Still only a couple games in. So I looked away. I read this. I've got Spurs probably about a point better than the Celtics right now. Point point half better than I'm getting home court. It's not huge. It's not a huge bet tonight. I did lay I did lay three and three and a half though with San Antonio. You laid the you laid the number with San Antonio. Nine and one of their last ten man 16.5 net. They're the best second best offense. Fourth best defense Boston has been absolutely incredible too. I like this is I don't I think I was reading reading into Drew properly too. I don't think it's a big bet for him tonight. It's not a big bet for me either. I think this is a great matchup with both of these teams seemingly peaking at similar times. And we'll see about Boston going forward here. But the Spurs are the best team in the Western conference right now. I really believe that. I think the Thunder right there that maybe Denver can get their way
into the conversation. This is the team that I trust the most in the West right now though. Ain't got a convince me. I know, man. So what I was saying last year about it last year. I mean, November and December, all you had to do is watch Spurs Thunder matchups. You're like, uh, Spurs the better team. Spurs been rock solid at home. Absolutely such a big deal. He's so good. So good defensively also just awesome. I mean, I mean, it's impossible to stay say stuff like this because they play off of each other so well. But I've heard a couple basketball guys talk that like even if Victor Wimanyama wasn't even on the team, they would have a defensive player of the year level candidates to find castle. And the fact that you're going to have that on the perimeter when be locking things down for a decade plus to come, uh, just wild. So yeah, I'm there. And then I was telling, uh, drew off air. We were chatting for a little bit because I think me and him are both getting concerned about some con Canipa rookie of the year. Betts need these hornets to, uh, to keep on winning. And they've dropped dropped their last two. I just can't. I can't square these numbers. It the past few games. I've admittedly, I have lost on hornets the past two games. I'm going right back at him tonight
against the blazers, uh, lay in three on the road against Portland. It looks like Denny's going to play which as you know, Gil is always big. It's always a big hold off of Danny. Yeah, it looks like he Is going to play in this game tonight. I don't have to check on his, uh, MIP case here later. Think the, uh, the games are getting up there. But anyways, like the blazers should be fairly healthy tonight. But I can't. It's two games. It's two games and the hornets have lost. I'm not going to take away from what they've done the past over two months now going back to the beginning of the year. Um, nine and two ATS their last 11 Portland. Portland has been struggling here the last couple of weeks. One in four ATS their last five games. Hornets just beat these guys. One oh nine ninety three on February 28th. Yes. Portland looking healthy. You're possibly tonight then they have been a while with Danny back in the lineup and everybody else good to go. No Kobe white for Charlotte. Um, I'm okay with the Tokyo. I still I've got, I've got the hornets five point favorites in this game. So this is laid three, laid three for me on the 49 games,
by the way. Okay. So he's still got. Yeah, he's got time. He's got time. Yeah, just enough time. I don't, and bring that up just because I don't think he's, yeah, I don't think he's out of that at all. There's a lot of Jalen Durham love right now, which might be the way of this is how we award the pistons kind of in the long run for the success of the season. Danny have the attend to one has it jumped out to yesterday when I look at I haven't bathed. They're all this time. You talk about bets that you thought about. I still have not talked about it for months. Yeah. They say, where is it available still? I see it up in town. I see it up in draft Kings right now. I'm sure MGM has up MGM does a problem. Okay. I'll bet it because because of because of Danny picks up where he left off. Give it to me. Give it to me. These things move quick. By the way, speaking of which MVP, which we've tracked, we can throw up the MVP numbers. Shay Gilder's Alexander hits the game winning three against the nuggets last night. How about minus 800 now all of a sudden? And guess what? Victor is the next guy in terms of the best odds
because you can Nicole Yokech is actually shorter at one shop. I was just talking about Fandole and draft Kings. But Nicole Yokech, you can get as deep as 25 to one now at Fandole. Victor's 20 to one K 30 to one Jalen 150 to one Luca 200 to one. I mean, it is everybody else is drifting, but Victor Victor sort of held holding steady. But there's Shay now after last night. And remember, he can still afford to miss five games and they're going to manage that abdominal strain. But they are very aware of that 65 game minimum are the thunder. I don't fully understand a complete drop in Yokech. I get I don't either. I get why Wendy's not moving because they're still in the standing. So you know, like they could take over that one C, but Yokech's Yokech's case has always been the same thing, the ridiculous statistical case. The straw pole reflects Shay being the favorite. It does the latest one. Okay. Mark Bortcher season long baseball next on a numbers game. The Toyota Tundra and Tacoma are built to keep going blending rugged muscle with precision
