I'm Lawrence Presman. That guy in the middle, Joe Niary,
and that guy over there is the wonderful Art to Caesar,
how are you boys?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Art?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
We cashed our parlay last night. I tried my hardest
to not cash that, but yes we did.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
It was good to see you pushed. But that's okay.
Still winner, We'll take it.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Yeah, we got another one coming up today. Joe Rniari,
how you doing, brother?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Great press? No, it's great. Got my capri pants on.
I'm ready to roll here, so let's get it going. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Okay, Well, before we get into anything, breaking news Art
to Caesar, Keith Urban Nicole Kidman feels betrayed. Keith Urban
spotted with a younger woman now, Art, as a book maker,
I didn't see this coming. I mean, a fifty seven
year old man with a fifty eight year old woman
(01:25):
leaving her for a younger woman. What were the odds
at the West Gate that that would happen?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Well, we put as many zeros as the computer would
allow us, with a one in front of it on
the yes, yes, my zero, yes, minus a billion, as
many zeros as the computer would allow us to put in.
I don't think I've ever seen this happen before. It's shocking,
(01:55):
but we we were ahead of the curve with all
our you weres.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, the way you were able to shoe the foresight
that the Westgate had there was impressive. No one saw
that coming. Now, nobody saw that coming except Joe Ranieri,
who is also looking around for younger women. Uh, nobody
put up a dating profile for you. God, oh god.
(02:23):
Sportsbook update from the great Art this Caesar. Let's get
into it, Art. Let's start with the NFL. You want
to tell us what's going on with the Chargers, Redskins,
Broncos and Eagles. Fascinating game and the Lions and Bengals,
Oh my.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, three games. We got to talk about them. You know,
we're gonna run through all these throughout the week. Here,
here's three. We're gonna hit on Washington now goes to
the Chargers. Chargers come home off the loss against the Giants,
which we keep saying was a bad spot. But the
Chargers still three and one. The public still thinks the
Chargers are good. They are good. That was two and
(02:58):
a half. It's now, so you've bumped up to the
key number of three. There Denver on the short week,
now goes to Philly. That line for us really hasn't budged.
I mean, we were at four, but we just kind
of moved with the market on the number. It wasn't
like we took money on the game. We're now Philly
three and a half, which is shocking because the look
aheadline on that was five and a half. I've talked
(03:20):
about how Philly's kind of been disrespected a little bit
kind of in the markets. I think they're like fourth
worst in like yards out gained in the league. It's
been weird their season, but they are still undefeated. And
then Detroit Cincy what we saw since the obviously on
a short week as well, what we saw out of
them Monday night and Detroit looks like they got their
(03:42):
mojo going. You know, that game with Burrow probably would
have been like a pick em or maybe Cincinnati a
slight favorite. But now you're talking Detroit is a ten
point favorite. Where we were eight and a half, now
we're ten. Nobody is going to back Cincinnati. Troit is
gonna be a team that we're gonna need to lose outright,
(04:03):
because they're gonna be the free bingos square this week
where everybody puts Detroit in moneyline parlays.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Where are we art with totals at this point in
the season, now that we've got four data points in
the books, here are we starting to Are we expecting
more of the books points less points coming up? What
do we usually see this time of year.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
It's a great question. I think, you know, the first
couple of weeks, we saw the unders, then we saw
the you know, it was kind of going back and forth.
I think it's always gonna be the higher totals. You see,
the public is gonna bet them over, the sharps are
gonna look to bet them under. The lowest totals on
the board. The public's gonna try to bet those overs,
and the sharps are still gonna try to bet the unders.
They're not gonna be sharps are not gonna be afraid
(04:46):
of thirty six or thirty five and a half. Where
the public comes in, they scratch their head and they go, wait,
an NFL game has a total of thirty five, How's
that possible? And they just blindly bet the game over.
So that's the one thing you always see. It really
just splits that way. And then the sharps just try
to find their spots with certain teams. I know, Joe,
you had talked about Atlanta, what was it last week?
(05:08):
How all their games were going under, you know, until
last week. So they try to find their spots with
certain teams.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Yeah, I want to talk about that over and underthing. Art.
We've mentioned it before on this show, and I've been
talking about it for years. If you guys blindly bet
the lowest NFL total under in the highest NFL total over,
and I mean blindly every week, you'll make money. At
the end of the year, you will be slightly in
the positive. And the reason for that is there are
(05:37):
floors and ceilings. Ever seen a sixty art, ever seen
a twenty eight? It doesn't happen. So there are floor
and ceilings that we can't take advantage of. And that's
a great point.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
All right.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
I want to ask you a quick question with bit
with NFL, especially in regards to this week. We have
the Rams minus seven. We have Indianapolis minus seven, Arizona
minus seven, seven and a half, Buffalo seven, seven and
a half, Detroit minus ten. Those are five massive favorites.
How many five team money line parlays are you going
(06:11):
to take?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Well, that's the hit press when you name all those teams.
We just need one to lose. If one can lose
for us, it's enormous for us because of all the
moneyline parlays. One and well, I don't know. I'd have
to really look at it, right. I hate to say
the Raiders are alive in the game, but we have
seen Raider money, you know, we have seen a little
(06:33):
bit of Raider money.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
That's just me.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Probably being anti cult. But eventually I'm sure I'll have
to turn the page on the cults. But you know, Detroit,
Detroit not so much in the teasers because it's ten.
I mean, there aren't a lot of people who want
to tease Detroit to three. Don't get me wrong, It
does happen. But the other four, you just really need
one of those to lose outright or even just win
their game by you know, one, especially if you know
(06:57):
people are teasing a one and a half things of
that nature. So we just really need one of those
to come in for us, and that's all it takes.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
I gotta ask you all quick rd the look aheadline
for the Ravens and Texans. What were we looking at here?
Nine nine and a half because it's now Houston minus one,
so Lamar Jackson is not nine points to the to
the better here? Am I missing something here?
Speaker 2 (07:26):
I think you're correct, Joe, you're you were probably in
the eight on the low end, nine and a half
on the high end on a Lamar game look ahead game.
But you had mentioned that yesterday and we had talked
about it. The Ravens. It's not just Lamar. They have
a million injuries on defense and that is going to
play into this. I do believe there are still people
(07:49):
who think that the Texans can turn it around. I'm
not one of them.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
No.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I think we went over all those points yesterday and
we don't believe Houston is a team who could turn
it around. But the perception is when you go from
you know, basically a two to three time MVP to
Cooper Rush and all the injuries and just the debacle
that the Baltimore season has been, it is an overreaction.
I do think Baltimore should still be favored in the game.
(08:15):
I mean they should still yeah, they still should be
a one point favorite, one and a half point favorite.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Yeah. And yesterday we actually saw and I don't know
what happened at the West Gate, but we saw Houston
go up to plus to minus two and a half.
So there was a ton of money coming in on
Houston and then you had to buy back. And I'm
gonna tell everybody right now, and I'd like to know
your opinion quick, and then we'll get to college football.
I would rather bet but Baltimore at plus one in
(08:44):
this spot with this team than Baltimore minus nine and
a half with a healthy team in the spot.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
One hundred percent. I'd rather take them on the money
line and play plus one oh five.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Right, and Joe, yeah, yeah, especially at.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Home, Baltimore is the play, guys, But do not get
and you're right, I'm not a believer on this Houston team.
Either no, Art, the Seeds are joining us. You can
see him every day at the Westgates. Say hi, Wave,
he's there.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Art.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
College football at Texas, Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan, Air Force, and Navy.
What's going on Texas?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, Texas and Florida. It's a big game, you know.
Obviously Florida is just in this gauntlet of a schedule
every week they play a tough team. Texas goes on
the road. Now they're going to lay seven in the game.
Game of the Year was seven. So there really hasn't
been a crazy adjustment on that game. You would have
thought maybe we had a big adjustment, but that's one
we have not seen an adjustment on. Texas is going
(09:46):
to be very popular in moneyline parlays, and the few
people who do tease college football will tease Texas at
that seven. Michigan has gone up. Michigan in the Game
of the Year's thirteen. Now they are seventeen point favorite.
It's at home of Wiscon against Wisconsin. Low total in
the game two, So I do think you'll see a
little bit of buy on Wisconsin at some point, thinking hey,
(10:08):
seventeen's too much with a total in the low forties,
and then there's been a real upgrade here on Navy.
That Game of the Year was seven, we're now eleven
and a half. I know these games are always tight
between these academies, but the air force defense is atrocious.
It's not great. There has been a real big upgrade
(10:29):
here to Navy. To move four and a half points
to an eleven and a half point favorite, will need
air force in that game.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
We also saw in that game too, some places had
a wacky total that opened up for two service academies
and it was automatically hammered down. You're still hanging at
what fifty one? Fifty one and a half?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Art?
Speaker 3 (10:51):
I mean these there's still two option teams that tend
to play lower scoring games, and yet here we are
at over fifty points. Again.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I think you're right, Joe. When you Service academys, you
almost just pencil in like forty one, just kind of
you know, you know, where do you that obviously Army
Navy a pencil in, you know, thirty one. But I
think it's really has to go to how bad that
air force defense is. The air force defense is not good.
Navy could probably score eighty yard touchdowns at will in.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
This yeah, Art, this season joining us. I wonder what
peak Pete Hegg's staff, what the Heggs were, I wonder
what the Secretary of War's speech. How it will affect
the lineman? Oh lord, on the football teams. I mean,
that's a reasonable thing. There can't be any overweight you know,
(11:43):
army men anymore. They got linemen out there, just the thought. Okay,
I'll shut up, uh Art. What's your line on Kent
State team total? We spoke about this yesterday. Somebody mentioned
DK he has it at two and a half and
a half half.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
We don't put our college football team totals up till Friday.
So let's circle back. Yes, let's circle back. Chris, if
I remember you remember when we talk Friday, I will
give you what we have for Kent State because I
did see that. I did see it that low team
total before though. Yeah, oh you have before? Okay, yeah,
(12:30):
because you know, you know a game like that, it's
sixty three nothing, the team drives down the field and
then they kicked the field goals so they don't get
shut out. You've seen it before?
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Well that's why you bet, that's
why DK has it.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
At two and a half.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
I guess yeah, this just did every team total in
hockey on opening night higher than the Kent State team total. Caesar,
let's get to a well baseball real quick, brother, what's
going on with the wild card today?
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Yeah? Absolutely, a little bit of We saw come in
on the Tigers at plus money and then it's gonna
be a big day to parlay the Yankees and the Dodgers.
We have seen that all morning and that is to
be expected.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Yeah, there we go. Let's go to our parlay of
the day and I'll start. I am going with the
Cubs under six and a half on the game. That
will be leg number one.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Art the Caesar, Well, in that same game, I'm gonna
take the Padres. I think they stave off elimination. I
think they win today. You're gonna get them at even money.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
I like the fathers go under with the Guardians and
Detroit people. Let's not make this very difficult. Both these
teams offensively are challenged, to say the least. Yeah, I'll
take the under six and a half in that one.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
There, there we go, guys. Tomorrow is our college football parlay.
That'll be for Saturday games. Friday is our NFL parlay,
So watch make sure to watch that all the way through.
We got our fade uh fade or not segment coming up.
We're gonna do the four and oho and the three
and one teams. We have our NFL best bets still
(14:09):
to come. Joe and Airy and I will give out
one each, same with college football MLB rundown in the
mail bag section, hit that thumbs up button and Joe
and Art, I gotta tell you, man, I am so
appreciative of all the comments that we're getting. We have.
We're getting about fifty comments a day and it's so meaningful,
(14:32):
like even just putting words up. But what's the word
of the day? Battery? Uh battery because I'm charging my phone. Well,
you got a better one, Joe another.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I didn't understand what you said. Is it battery? Did
you forget that.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Word of the day is the nicole kidman? No, no, no,
that's not Joe not actually single for you all right.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Then put single in the word of the day. It's
a word word of the day. Word of the day
to the great.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Game code names, which if you've never played, is spectacular.
You can use a pronoun like nicole kidman, as a
word anyway. Five single is the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Thank you. I'm still trying to get over a secretary
of war. What you're watching way too many Apple shows,
like Apple TV shows, like.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
It's not what he is.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
It's called secretary of Defense, you schmuck. That's not war.
Stop not anymore, stay out, listen, Jason Momoa, stop it.
Nobody's interested in your Apple TV shows. Nobody.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Did they not change it to the Department of War?
Speaker 2 (15:47):
No, no, it's the defense.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Yeah no, no, no, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Pa calls him secretary of war.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Yeah no, no, that's what they call it in the
Hawaiian Island.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Cutting the segmentary.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
No, people need to know exactly what we're dealing with
on a daily basis here. They need to know this.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I'm Canadian, exactly, Okay, Bills four and oh listen, you're
you're playing a premium to bet the Bills. But I
think this team is going to cover more than they don't.
This is a hungry team that I think will keep
their foot on the gas all your I'm worried about
(16:28):
this week too high division game, but I'm looking at
bet on them moving forward, Joe.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
They'll be undefeated heading into November. I don't see any
way around it. So, but I doubt very much there's
going to be any value anytime soon. Art backing the
Buffalo Bills here.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Yeah, we've talked about the Buffalo tax. You're gonna have
to pay it. I am a little worried about their defense,
but you know, listen, there's still one of the one
or two best teams of the league.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Yeah, Chargers, they're a wait and see. I want to
see what their O line looks like this week, so
I am passing completely on them, but I am sold
on this team's defense.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Art, I'm sold on Herbert, I'm sold on his weapons.
The offensive line is a big problem, and I do
love the coach coach. I do think moving forward they
are a bet on, but I'd be weary this week.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Joe, listen until they can beat Kansas City, I'm on
a when it matters the most, I'm not interested in
this team. They will figure out a way. And the
injuries on that offensive line, you can't lose both starting tackles.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Things are going to go swimmingly here. So they are
picked a spots with the Chargers.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Okay, so pick them Washington, You like them this week?
Are you gonna look to fade the Chargers this very week?
Speaker 3 (17:47):
No, I'm looking to be a lot of overs here
coming up with the Chargers.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Oh interesting? Why can I have a reason?
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Because I don't think that defense is as good as
you think it is.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
But but what about the fact that the O line
is injured and that's going to affect the running and
passing game?
Speaker 3 (18:05):
One word, Hampton kid is a beast. He's going to
be Rookie of the year.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Okay, there we go. Steelers are I'm looking to fade
this team. This team, this team's not for real in
any manner. As the season progresses, I think Aaron Rodgers
gets worse. I don't buy him too. This defense. I'm
looking to fade the Steelers.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I would fade them because of the defense. It's a
wait and see approach for me as far as like
long term, and I think eventually Rogers will show his aide.
So I can't want to put money down on the
Steelers at the l.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Yeah, listen, I faded him last week against Minnesota. They
should have lost that game as well. Here they are
a fade team as far as I'm concerned. Moving forward here,
I do not believe in his team. They can't run,
they can't stop the run. At some point, you know
that regression is going to hit the demean there pres
and they're not going to get every fumball and they're
(19:00):
not going to get every ball bouncing their way. So yeah,
they're a fade team for me.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Both the Colts and the Jags are three and one,
and I got to tell you, man, I don't know
how to approach either of these teams. I haven't bet
on or against them. I have not been involved. I
was involved in one game with the Colts. I bet
the Rams, So I do apologize. I got lucky there.
I'm gonna lay off both of these teams, but I
think there might be value fading them moving forward.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Art Yeah, I mean the Colts. I still don't know
what to make of them. I'm still waiting, as you
guys say, for the other shoot to drop. I think
Jacksonville is starting to turn me a little bit. I
want to see more, but Jacksonville could be a bet
on for me moving forward.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
Yeah, Indy should be four and oh okay, they beat
the Rams and should have beaten the Rams in that game.
They're provided they're you know, their wide receiver doesn't celebrate
before he actually gets in the end zone there, So yes, No,
I think at this point, given what we've seen, I
don't think it's a fluke with Indy and Jacksonville can
now run the ball and play defense, which is going
(20:09):
to alleviate a lot for Trevor Lawrence. So I think
they're both those teams are going to be bet on
simply because people are going to be expecting the wheels
to fall off pres at some point, and that's where
the value is going to come in for him.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Yeah, Listen, I'm worried about Indy. If I had to
pick one to be a bet on, I think I
would go with the Jags here. Do you like Indy on?
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Sorry?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Do you like the Jags on Monday Night against your
vaunted Kansas City Chiefs?
Speaker 3 (20:38):
No? I don't like anybody against Kansas City at this point.
They're going scorchtarth here. So but I can tell you this,
it's gonna be closer than people think. If the hook
is still available. Yeah, we're at the shot.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Eagles four and oh are This is a team that
really just hasn't played outstanding consistent football yet this year.
Does that bode well for them moving forward? Or are
they not as good as their four and oh record.
I am passing on the Eagles game against Denver minus
three and a half. But I love this team and
(21:12):
I'm looking to continue to bet on them.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah, and it's funny, like I said, their yardich is
weird with their differential, but they're so four and oh.
But now you're getting we always see the Buffalo text.
You're getting like a Philly discount. You know, this is
a line that should be five to five and a half,
it's now three and a half. Maybe there are some
spots here until they turn it around where you can
get them at a discount.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
Show two inconsistent offensively for my taste. They still can't
run the ball lane. Johnson's hurt again. They're coming off
a game in which they had to play in one
hundred degrees and they barely held on. And now they
got a pissed off Denver defense coming to town. We're
gonna learn a little some about Denver. But I'm looking
to fade Philadelphia here in spots because I just don't
(21:55):
it's a lot of football they've played over the last
couple of seasons here, and yeah, this is not at
the same team from a year ago, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Uh okay. We got three three and one teams in
the nfc A West. I'm looking to bet on the Rams.
I'm looking to bet on Seattle, and although the Rams
are playing San Fran, I'm actually looking to bet on
San Fran as well. I think there's gonna be a
lot of value with this team, even as injured as
they are. So I'm looking to bet on all three
(22:25):
of these teams.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Uh Art, As I'm with you, I like all three
teams as well. I do like the Rams this week,
even though the number is balloon to seven. Yeah, it's balloon.
San Francisco's got to get healthy, we know that. And Seattle,
I think is the most under the radar team. Their
trenches are amazing on both sides. I think the coach
is pretty good and Sam Donald has been pretty good.
(22:47):
So you gotta like what you've seen out of all
three of these teams.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Joe, Yeah, all of a sudden, the NFC West has
become interesting. Huh h. Seattle's good, except at some point
Sam Donald's gonna turn into a pumpkin. The schedule is easy,
enough for the forty nine ers to weather this injury storm,
but they better figure it out quickly. And I like
the Rams. I still think the Rams were the class
(23:11):
of that conference there and I still think they're the
ones to beat. When it's all said and.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Done, and our last three and one team is NOE,
we have two to go Detroit Lions. Look, we're paying
a premium, like we spoke about with the Bills. I
don't care this team covers or doesn't cover based on
their fourth downs. I'm in love with the Detroit Lions.
I have been for two years. I'm now a Detroit
(23:36):
Lion fan. So I'm not ever betting against the Detroit
Lions under this current regime.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Artwo Yeah, I mean this week, I wouldn't go lay
ten on the road, but I do like the Lions
moving forward.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Joe definitely not laying ten on the road anywhere. With Detroit,
I still say their defense is better than their offense,
and against better team, it's going to be interesting to
see how that plays out on the road.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
So wait a minute, their defense is better than their offense,
but their offense in the last year and a half
is the best offense in all of football.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
What the hell does a year and a half have
to do it. You don't have the same coordinators. You know,
offensive lineman red like, no, no, no, you do better
than their means folds. It means nothing. It means this season.
It means this season, their defense is better than it
(24:36):
was a year ago. The offense isn't as good. That's
what it means.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
But that's not what you said.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
You said, that's exactly what I said. I think their
defense is better than their offense this year.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
That's insane, That is insane. I know you're looking for
a man. Joe's your guy.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
He takes that back. Oh my lord, all right, mister Caprice,
Oh my lord.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
The baby Buccaneers. This is a team that I I'm
gonna look likely fade, but slightly moving forward.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Art. Yeah, they're starting to deal with a lot of
injuries as well. I do like Baker, so I think
there will be spots for me to find ways to
bet them. But I need them to get a lot
healthier on this offensive line.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Yeah, that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Joe can't keep winning games by having to come back
in the fourth quarter and needing miracles like it didn't
work last week, Although they had the shot last week
against Philadelphia. Couldn't get it done. But no, they got
to start playing better early and until so they're a
fade certainly in the first half for me, press.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
There we go, fade or not fade. That segment is over.
Art to Caesar, thanks for doing this, brother. What's going
on over at the Westgate? Anything we need to know about?
Speaker 2 (25:50):
No, I mean, listen, this is just a great time
in the year. You know yet day playoff baseball. I know,
eventually we'll have the other sports pop in, like the
NBA and NHL. Football is getting hot, so this is
just a wonderful time. When the calendar goes to October,
we're just busy as can be. So this is a
great time.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Yeah, eventually NHL Tuesday. Art to Caesar, any massive future
bet you've taken?
Speaker 2 (26:13):
You listen. We fight the Knights every year, pres hit
every year they could be the lowest team on the
board when they came in as an expansion team where
they could be the favorites. We always fight the Knights. Now, listen,
it's weird. It's like a good thing if they win,
because it's good for the book. You know, people come in,
it's good for the town all that, but we get
(26:33):
crushed if they win the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Yeah, well Mitch Martins on that team now, so they
will not Wis.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
That cop art, by the way, is it Canada?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Oh no, no, no, that's right. It's actually right down
the road for me. And I'll be with it tonight there,
Prez thinking about you. I'll just I'll let you'll take
a picture because that's about as close as you're ever
going to get to it here in a while.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
So we're good, Joe, take a picture of that cup.
I'd like to see you with them. Yes, we'll put
that up on tomorrow's shows. Yes, that could be your
dating profile picture to lure Nicole mmon in.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
The cup belongs in Florida. Press sorry, and so do you?
Speaker 2 (27:14):
She would won like the Aussie Rules Football Cup. Yeah,
I think she cares about the NHL Cup. No shot,
I know the name of that, the Kangaroo Cup. I
had no clue.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
You don't know the name of it either, You got
no idea either?
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Stop it.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Stop name a team.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
I can name some teams.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
These ones Brisbane.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Lions, Magpies. Awful conversation. It needs to end immediately. It
is terrible.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
The best name in sports freak magpies. What is the
a f L Trophy?
Speaker 3 (27:59):
I I.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Mean I have a picture of it.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
What is it called?
Speaker 1 (28:04):
What is it called? It's called the McLelland Trophy, the
McLellan that's.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
A good drinking game. Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
All right, Okay, get out of here.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
You're out of her, Thank you, R Joe.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
No, we got lots of show still to go. NFL
best Bets College football best bets are MLB rundown the
mail bag section. Real quick, everybody, Joe, you got a
five percent play up this weekend? Is that correct?
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Yes? I do, coming up in the NFL and fact
it will be posted later this afternoon, full right up
and all, so get ready love this play, first one
in the NFL. In fact, press.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Guys, I've got a college football five percent as well,
so we need a promover that.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Tom tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Well, we have a little bit of a situation going
on at head office right now. Our two customer service
ladies lost their father. Yes, so yeah, But anyway, Joe's
got a five percent in NFL. I've got my first
five percent college football play of the season as well,
and that's on Saturday. I do have a promo to
(29:15):
give you, guys. It's an NFL thirty. That's thirty days
of my NFL plays for one hundred and thirty nine dollars.
I'm nineteen and nine on the NFL. You're that's sixty
eight percent over twenty percent ROI all ready, and I've
got one Thursday Night play and a whole ton of
(29:36):
stuff that you guys on Sunday. Joe, how's your baseball going?
Anything going for the clients in baseball?
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Already up locked and loaded for today. I would head
over there and grab it for a nine bucks here.
Pez it's been crazy. It's it's been a hell of
a run in Major League baseball.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Okay, there we go, Joe. Let's start with our first
and FL best bet. Let's go across the pond. We're
heading into the Minnesota Cleveland game. And I got to
tell you, Joe, this is one of my favorite bets
on the board. I'm giving it out on this show.
And that is team total of Cleveland under sixteen and
a half. It is slightly juiced somewhere around minus one thirty,
(30:18):
but under sixteen and a half points for the Cleveland Browns.
And I understand Dylan Gabriel is playing. I don't care
who plays for quarterback at the quarterback position in Cleveland.
This Cleveland team cannot score, and they're playing a defense
that is really tough for veteran quarterbacks to figure out
(30:41):
how to play against. I cannot imagine being thrown into
the fire as a Cleveland quarterback having to play against
a Minnesota defense, having to play against Minnesota who just
had coming off a loss. Joe, I don't think Cleveland
puts up thirteen points. I'd be surprised if Cleveland gets
(31:02):
a touchdown in this game. Take under sixteen and a
half of the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
Yeap, gone ahead, and plus Minnesota's been there now for
two weeks. All rest upon there, ye all right present.
It's disgusting, it's gross. Are you holding your nose? Are
you holding it? Good? Now? Push your chips in the
middle and back Carolina against the Miami Dolphins coming up
this week, third worst defense in yards per play allowed.
(31:29):
That's what the Dolphins bring to the table. They're traveling
on a short week. No, Tyreek Hill Panthers can't win
on the road, but at home, well, they just beat
Atlanta thirty to nothing, didn't they and they looked absolutely
horrific in New England. Asses are on the line here
this Sunday in Charlotte. I would expect a huge performance.
(31:51):
And this is a defense that Bryce Young can actually
light up. Here. Give me Carolinas a home dog.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Pres they are all yours, Joe and are Let's go
into our college football best bets and I'm gonna look
at b y you first half minus ten and a half.
Known as the most frustrated male team in the world,
the BYU team. That's just a joke there. Boom bam,
blahbah blah. Anyway, this game goes on Friday night. West
(32:22):
Virginia has to fly to Provo and play a ten
to thirty Eastern game. They're gonna be pretty damn tired,
and they're doing it without their starting QB or a
few of their offensive starters. They are dealing with a
ton of injuries. Not that that matters anyway. This West
Virginia team has been outscored sixty by sixty five points
(32:45):
in a pair of Big Twelve games. They did not
cross the goal line during the first half in either game.
I gotta look at this first half here, Joe. I'm
not gonna take the whole game. I'm gonna focus on
the first half. It's minus ten and a half take
BYU over West Virginia.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Yeah, poor rich Rod not working out the way he
thought it would the second go round at West Virginia.
You know where else it's not working is my alma
mata there with the Oklahoma State Cowboys, who after an
embarrassing loss to Tulsa.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Yeah, well they had to.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
Fire Mike Gundy. And what they do last week while
they were home against Baylor and at least they showed
some signs of life offensively. The problem is that they
gave up over six hundred yards of total offense to Baylor.
And what did they do well? Now they fired their
defensive coordinator, Todd Grantham. Yay, things are going swimmingly for
(33:40):
the Oklahoma State Cowboys from this point on. Anytime they
are playing a team with a heartbeat, I will be
backing that team total to go over. And I can
assure you Arizona is going to put up a ton
of points on this absolutely horrific Oklahoma State defense. Doesn't
matter who the coach prez, It's over for Oklahoma State.
(34:02):
Arizona putting up a ton of points this week.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
There we go, Joe, keep going MLB rundown four games,
break him down? All right?
Speaker 3 (34:10):
So what do we got here today, Prez? We have
got early action between Detroit and the Guardians. That is
Game one again told you yesterday, did mind in fact
the Guardians for such a low scoring both offenses take
the point and a half. That's what we gave the clients.
That is why they cash that ticket. Now today, I
(34:33):
do like the Guardians to come back and win Game
two to force a Game three. Why because Tanner Biby's
on the mound and he has been absolutely dominant for
the Guardians here, especially the last two times out against
the Detroit Tigers, a lineup in which cannot hit right
handed pitching. They didn't hit it yesterday against Gavin Williams.
(34:54):
They're not gonna hit it again here today. And Casey
miz is not schooball So go ahead, back the Guardians
and Baby to get it done in this game. The
Cubs and the Padres didn't even think Dylan Cease would
be on this roster for the postseason, but here he
is starting for the Padres. Kidrich is going for the
Cubs and he's gonna give way to Imanaga, who has
(35:17):
been absolutely horrific in the first inning. That's why they're
going with a opener here. He has struggled in a
big way to start games. I think if Padres are
in a good spot to bounce back here, they will
deploy that bullpen as soon as Dylan Cease gets into trouble.
So I will look at the Padres. The Yankees have
(35:39):
a big advantage with Rodan on the mound. If the
baseball guards have any sort of sense of humor, they're
gonna have to give us a Game three between the
Yankees and the Red Sox for everything. And I told
you a couple of days ago, I wanted to congratulate
the Reds for making the postseason. However, your postseason is over.
You'll be making tea time here tonight. I would even
(36:01):
lay the run and a half with the Dodgers tonight.
Much of what you got last night you're gonna get
again here tonight. Dodgers playing from in front bullpen implodes
for the Reds. I'll take the Dodgers on the rud
line press. I couldn't agree with you more.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Joe. Let's get to our mailback section. We're gonna start
with Jeffrey Wilson seventy six twelve. He writes, Pres is terrible.
Who in the world would pay this guy for his picks?
Instead of answering directly, Joe, I had an army of
fans come in and respond. One of them writes, is
(36:39):
this satire? You clearly don't watch his presidential address. Another
one writes, Jeffrey, if you're so confident that he sucks,
fade him. You're gonna lose a lot of money. Another
gentleman unknown rights, thanks for all the winners Pres started
watching in twenty twenty one. Yeah, I'm up eighty units
(37:00):
since March. I'm destroying the NFL, and you want to
get up there and put my integrity on the line
with your nonsense, Jeffrey Wilson, That's okay. Everybody else told
you at how good I really am at sports betting.
Paul Bowman writes Joe should host the show, Sorry, Prez.
My response was, Joe hosts every goddamn show on sports Grid.
(37:25):
Give him a freaking break. Yes, yes, yes, Brewers are
not winning the World Series, rob Christians and any anything there.
Speaker 3 (37:34):
Joe, then don't bet him.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Do you think they can win it.
Speaker 3 (37:39):
I have a ticket on the Brewers here. I got
no problem backing. They're the only team left, Prez that's
actually consistently beat the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Yeah, well, the Blue Jays don't get that opportunity very often.
And as for teaser bets that we spoke about yesterday,
the concept when betting teasers is to go through three
seven as often as you can. So if it's plus
two and a half, you take six points, you're an
eight and a half. That takes you to three and seven.
The key numbers, that's what you are trying to focus on.
(38:10):
You can come up or down. Most of the professionals
like to go up two and a half to eight
instead of eight and a half to two, So I
do suggest going up more than down and to try
to cross those key numbers as often as possible. With
that said, and I know we're out of time here, Joe,
I want to discuss tomorrow the difference between betting teasers
(38:33):
and using the old line to get a better number,
which is what I suggest people do. Joe. That's the show, bro,
Thanks for doing this, man.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
Dandy, Prez. Outstanding stuff. Nicole Kidman line too. By the way,
we're going to talk to you.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
Yes, yes, Joe, Hi, it's Nicole Kidman calling. You can
just can the show anytime you want. I'm just gonna
talk to Nicole on your behalf perfect it. Joe's very handsome,
very tansel.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
And just like that, we lost this microphone. I don't
know how that happened, Prez. I should host the show instead.
I produce it so I can do things like this
like shut your ASTs up when a madismos. Have a
great day, Guys, cash those tickets. We'll be back again
tomorrow as the best betting show ever here on Wager
Talking Joy

I'm Lawrence Presman. That guy in the middle, Joe Niary,
and that guy over there is the wonderful Art to Caesar,
how are you boys?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Art?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
We cashed our parlay last night. I tried my hardest
to not cash that, but yes we did.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
It was good to see you pushed. But that's okay.
Still winner, We'll take it.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Yeah, we got another one coming up today. Joe Rniari,
how you doing, brother?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Great press? No, it's great. Got my capri pants on.
I'm ready to roll here, so let's get it going. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Okay, Well, before we get into anything, breaking news Art
to Caesar, Keith Urban Nicole Kidman feels betrayed. Keith Urban
spotted with a younger woman now, Art, as a book maker,
I didn't see this coming. I mean, a fifty seven
year old man with a fifty eight year old woman
(01:25):
leaving her for a younger woman. What were the odds
at the West Gate that that would happen?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Well, we put as many zeros as the computer would
allow us, with a one in front of it on
the yes, yes, my zero, yes, minus a billion, as
many zeros as the computer would allow us to put in.
I don't think I've ever seen this happen before. It's shocking,
(01:55):
but we we were ahead of the curve with all
our you weres.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, the way you were able to shoe the foresight
that the Westgate had there was impressive. No one saw
that coming. Now, nobody saw that coming except Joe Ranieri,
who is also looking around for younger women. Uh, nobody
put up a dating profile for you. God, oh god.
(02:23):
Sportsbook update from the great Art this Caesar. Let's get
into it, Art. Let's start with the NFL. You want
to tell us what's going on with the Chargers, Redskins,
Broncos and Eagles. Fascinating game and the Lions and Bengals,
Oh my.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, three games. We got to talk about them. You know,
we're gonna run through all these throughout the week. Here,
here's three. We're gonna hit on Washington now goes to
the Chargers. Chargers come home off the loss against the Giants,
which we keep saying was a bad spot. But the
Chargers still three and one. The public still thinks the
Chargers are good. They are good. That was two and
(02:58):
a half. It's now, so you've bumped up to the
key number of three. There Denver on the short week,
now goes to Philly. That line for us really hasn't budged.
I mean, we were at four, but we just kind
of moved with the market on the number. It wasn't
like we took money on the game. We're now Philly
three and a half, which is shocking because the look
aheadline on that was five and a half. I've talked
(03:20):
about how Philly's kind of been disrespected a little bit
kind of in the markets. I think they're like fourth
worst in like yards out gained in the league. It's
been weird their season, but they are still undefeated. And
then Detroit Cincy what we saw since the obviously on
a short week as well, what we saw out of
them Monday night and Detroit looks like they got their
(03:42):
mojo going. You know, that game with Burrow probably would
have been like a pick em or maybe Cincinnati a
slight favorite. But now you're talking Detroit is a ten
point favorite. Where we were eight and a half, now
we're ten. Nobody is going to back Cincinnati. Troit is
gonna be a team that we're gonna need to lose outright,
(04:03):
because they're gonna be the free bingos square this week
where everybody puts Detroit in moneyline parlays.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Where are we art with totals at this point in
the season, now that we've got four data points in
the books, here are we starting to Are we expecting
more of the books points less points coming up? What
do we usually see this time of year.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
It's a great question. I think, you know, the first
couple of weeks, we saw the unders, then we saw
the you know, it was kind of going back and forth.
I think it's always gonna be the higher totals. You see,
the public is gonna bet them over, the sharps are
gonna look to bet them under. The lowest totals on
the board. The public's gonna try to bet those overs,
and the sharps are still gonna try to bet the unders.
They're not gonna be sharps are not gonna be afraid
(04:46):
of thirty six or thirty five and a half. Where
the public comes in, they scratch their head and they go, wait,
an NFL game has a total of thirty five, How's
that possible? And they just blindly bet the game over.
So that's the one thing you always see. It really
just splits that way. And then the sharps just try
to find their spots with certain teams. I know, Joe,
you had talked about Atlanta, what was it last week?
(05:08):
How all their games were going under, you know, until
last week. So they try to find their spots with
certain teams.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Yeah, I want to talk about that over and underthing. Art.
We've mentioned it before on this show, and I've been
talking about it for years. If you guys blindly bet
the lowest NFL total under in the highest NFL total over,
and I mean blindly every week, you'll make money. At
the end of the year, you will be slightly in
the positive. And the reason for that is there are
(05:37):
floors and ceilings. Ever seen a sixty art, ever seen
a twenty eight? It doesn't happen. So there are floor
and ceilings that we can't take advantage of. And that's
a great point.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
All right.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
I want to ask you a quick question with bit
with NFL, especially in regards to this week. We have
the Rams minus seven. We have Indianapolis minus seven, Arizona
minus seven, seven and a half, Buffalo seven, seven and
a half, Detroit minus ten. Those are five massive favorites.
How many five team money line parlays are you going
(06:11):
to take?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Well, that's the hit press when you name all those teams.
We just need one to lose. If one can lose
for us, it's enormous for us because of all the
moneyline parlays. One and well, I don't know. I'd have
to really look at it, right. I hate to say
the Raiders are alive in the game, but we have
seen Raider money, you know, we have seen a little
(06:33):
bit of Raider money.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
That's just me.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Probably being anti cult. But eventually I'm sure I'll have
to turn the page on the cults. But you know, Detroit,
Detroit not so much in the teasers because it's ten.
I mean, there aren't a lot of people who want
to tease Detroit to three. Don't get me wrong, It
does happen. But the other four, you just really need
one of those to lose outright or even just win
their game by you know, one, especially if you know
(06:57):
people are teasing a one and a half things of
that nature. So we just really need one of those
to come in for us, and that's all it takes.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
I gotta ask you all quick rd the look aheadline
for the Ravens and Texans. What were we looking at here?
Nine nine and a half because it's now Houston minus one,
so Lamar Jackson is not nine points to the to
the better here? Am I missing something here?
Speaker 2 (07:26):
I think you're correct, Joe, you're you were probably in
the eight on the low end, nine and a half
on the high end on a Lamar game look ahead game.
But you had mentioned that yesterday and we had talked
about it. The Ravens. It's not just Lamar. They have
a million injuries on defense and that is going to
play into this. I do believe there are still people
(07:49):
who think that the Texans can turn it around. I'm
not one of them.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
No.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I think we went over all those points yesterday and
we don't believe Houston is a team who could turn
it around. But the perception is when you go from
you know, basically a two to three time MVP to
Cooper Rush and all the injuries and just the debacle
that the Baltimore season has been, it is an overreaction.
I do think Baltimore should still be favored in the game.
(08:15):
I mean they should still yeah, they still should be
a one point favorite, one and a half point favorite.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Yeah. And yesterday we actually saw and I don't know
what happened at the West Gate, but we saw Houston
go up to plus to minus two and a half.
So there was a ton of money coming in on
Houston and then you had to buy back. And I'm
gonna tell everybody right now, and I'd like to know
your opinion quick, and then we'll get to college football.
I would rather bet but Baltimore at plus one in
(08:44):
this spot with this team than Baltimore minus nine and
a half with a healthy team in the spot.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
One hundred percent. I'd rather take them on the money
line and play plus one oh five.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Right, and Joe, yeah, yeah, especially at.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Home, Baltimore is the play, guys, But do not get
and you're right, I'm not a believer on this Houston team.
Either no, Art, the Seeds are joining us. You can
see him every day at the Westgates. Say hi, Wave,
he's there.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Art.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
College football at Texas, Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan, Air Force, and Navy.
What's going on Texas?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, Texas and Florida. It's a big game, you know.
Obviously Florida is just in this gauntlet of a schedule
every week they play a tough team. Texas goes on
the road. Now they're going to lay seven in the game.
Game of the Year was seven. So there really hasn't
been a crazy adjustment on that game. You would have
thought maybe we had a big adjustment, but that's one
we have not seen an adjustment on. Texas is going
(09:46):
to be very popular in moneyline parlays, and the few
people who do tease college football will tease Texas at
that seven. Michigan has gone up. Michigan in the Game
of the Year's thirteen. Now they are seventeen point favorite.
It's at home of Wiscon against Wisconsin. Low total in
the game two, So I do think you'll see a
little bit of buy on Wisconsin at some point, thinking hey,
(10:08):
seventeen's too much with a total in the low forties,
and then there's been a real upgrade here on Navy.
That Game of the Year was seven, we're now eleven
and a half. I know these games are always tight
between these academies, but the air force defense is atrocious.
It's not great. There has been a real big upgrade
(10:29):
here to Navy. To move four and a half points
to an eleven and a half point favorite, will need
air force in that game.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
We also saw in that game too, some places had
a wacky total that opened up for two service academies
and it was automatically hammered down. You're still hanging at
what fifty one? Fifty one and a half?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Art?
Speaker 3 (10:51):
I mean these there's still two option teams that tend
to play lower scoring games, and yet here we are
at over fifty points. Again.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I think you're right, Joe. When you Service academys, you
almost just pencil in like forty one, just kind of
you know, you know, where do you that obviously Army
Navy a pencil in, you know, thirty one. But I
think it's really has to go to how bad that
air force defense is. The air force defense is not good.
Navy could probably score eighty yard touchdowns at will in.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
This yeah, Art, this season joining us. I wonder what
peak Pete Hegg's staff, what the Heggs were, I wonder
what the Secretary of War's speech. How it will affect
the lineman? Oh lord, on the football teams. I mean,
that's a reasonable thing. There can't be any overweight you know,
(11:43):
army men anymore. They got linemen out there, just the thought. Okay,
I'll shut up, uh Art. What's your line on Kent
State team total? We spoke about this yesterday. Somebody mentioned
DK he has it at two and a half and
a half half.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
We don't put our college football team totals up till Friday.
So let's circle back. Yes, let's circle back. Chris, if
I remember you remember when we talk Friday, I will
give you what we have for Kent State because I
did see that. I did see it that low team
total before though. Yeah, oh you have before? Okay, yeah,
(12:30):
because you know, you know a game like that, it's
sixty three nothing, the team drives down the field and
then they kicked the field goals so they don't get
shut out. You've seen it before?
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Well that's why you bet, that's
why DK has it.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
At two and a half.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
I guess yeah, this just did every team total in
hockey on opening night higher than the Kent State team total. Caesar,
let's get to a well baseball real quick, brother, what's
going on with the wild card today?
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Yeah? Absolutely, a little bit of We saw come in
on the Tigers at plus money and then it's gonna
be a big day to parlay the Yankees and the Dodgers.
We have seen that all morning and that is to
be expected.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Yeah, there we go. Let's go to our parlay of
the day and I'll start. I am going with the
Cubs under six and a half on the game. That
will be leg number one.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Art the Caesar, Well, in that same game, I'm gonna
take the Padres. I think they stave off elimination. I
think they win today. You're gonna get them at even money.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
I like the fathers go under with the Guardians and
Detroit people. Let's not make this very difficult. Both these
teams offensively are challenged, to say the least. Yeah, I'll
take the under six and a half in that one.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
There, there we go, guys. Tomorrow is our college football parlay.
That'll be for Saturday games. Friday is our NFL parlay,
So watch make sure to watch that all the way through.
We got our fade uh fade or not segment coming up.
We're gonna do the four and oho and the three
and one teams. We have our NFL best bets still
(14:09):
to come. Joe and Airy and I will give out
one each, same with college football MLB rundown in the
mail bag section, hit that thumbs up button and Joe
and Art, I gotta tell you, man, I am so
appreciative of all the comments that we're getting. We have.
We're getting about fifty comments a day and it's so meaningful,
(14:32):
like even just putting words up. But what's the word
of the day? Battery? Uh battery because I'm charging my phone. Well,
you got a better one, Joe another.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I didn't understand what you said. Is it battery? Did
you forget that.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Word of the day is the nicole kidman? No, no, no,
that's not Joe not actually single for you all right.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Then put single in the word of the day. It's
a word word of the day. Word of the day
to the great.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Game code names, which if you've never played, is spectacular.
You can use a pronoun like nicole kidman, as a
word anyway. Five single is the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Thank you. I'm still trying to get over a secretary
of war. What you're watching way too many Apple shows,
like Apple TV shows, like.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
It's not what he is.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
It's called secretary of Defense, you schmuck. That's not war.
Stop not anymore, stay out, listen, Jason Momoa, stop it.
Nobody's interested in your Apple TV shows. Nobody.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Did they not change it to the Department of War?
Speaker 2 (15:47):
No, no, it's the defense.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Yeah no, no, no, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Pa calls him secretary of war.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Yeah no, no, that's what they call it in the
Hawaiian Island.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Cutting the segmentary.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
No, people need to know exactly what we're dealing with
on a daily basis here. They need to know this.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I'm Canadian, exactly, Okay, Bills four and oh listen, you're
you're playing a premium to bet the Bills. But I
think this team is going to cover more than they don't.
This is a hungry team that I think will keep
their foot on the gas all your I'm worried about
(16:28):
this week too high division game, but I'm looking at
bet on them moving forward, Joe.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
They'll be undefeated heading into November. I don't see any
way around it. So, but I doubt very much there's
going to be any value anytime soon. Art backing the
Buffalo Bills here.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Yeah, we've talked about the Buffalo tax. You're gonna have
to pay it. I am a little worried about their defense,
but you know, listen, there's still one of the one
or two best teams of the league.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Yeah, Chargers, they're a wait and see. I want to
see what their O line looks like this week, so
I am passing completely on them, but I am sold
on this team's defense.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Art, I'm sold on Herbert, I'm sold on his weapons.
The offensive line is a big problem, and I do
love the coach coach. I do think moving forward they
are a bet on, but I'd be weary this week.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Joe, listen until they can beat Kansas City, I'm on
a when it matters the most, I'm not interested in
this team. They will figure out a way. And the
injuries on that offensive line, you can't lose both starting tackles.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Things are going to go swimmingly here. So they are
picked a spots with the Chargers.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Okay, so pick them Washington, You like them this week?
Are you gonna look to fade the Chargers this very week?
Speaker 3 (17:47):
No, I'm looking to be a lot of overs here
coming up with the Chargers.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Oh interesting? Why can I have a reason?
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Because I don't think that defense is as good as
you think it is.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
But but what about the fact that the O line
is injured and that's going to affect the running and
passing game?
Speaker 3 (18:05):
One word, Hampton kid is a beast. He's going to
be Rookie of the year.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Okay, there we go. Steelers are I'm looking to fade
this team. This team, this team's not for real in
any manner. As the season progresses, I think Aaron Rodgers
gets worse. I don't buy him too. This defense. I'm
looking to fade the Steelers.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I would fade them because of the defense. It's a
wait and see approach for me as far as like
long term, and I think eventually Rogers will show his aide.
So I can't want to put money down on the
Steelers at the l.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Yeah, listen, I faded him last week against Minnesota. They
should have lost that game as well. Here they are
a fade team as far as I'm concerned. Moving forward here,
I do not believe in his team. They can't run,
they can't stop the run. At some point, you know
that regression is going to hit the demean there pres
and they're not going to get every fumball and they're
(19:00):
not going to get every ball bouncing their way. So yeah,
they're a fade team for me.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Both the Colts and the Jags are three and one,
and I got to tell you, man, I don't know
how to approach either of these teams. I haven't bet
on or against them. I have not been involved. I
was involved in one game with the Colts. I bet
the Rams, So I do apologize. I got lucky there.
I'm gonna lay off both of these teams, but I
think there might be value fading them moving forward.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Art Yeah, I mean the Colts. I still don't know
what to make of them. I'm still waiting, as you
guys say, for the other shoot to drop. I think
Jacksonville is starting to turn me a little bit. I
want to see more, but Jacksonville could be a bet
on for me moving forward.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
Yeah, Indy should be four and oh okay, they beat
the Rams and should have beaten the Rams in that game.
They're provided they're you know, their wide receiver doesn't celebrate
before he actually gets in the end zone there, So yes, No,
I think at this point, given what we've seen, I
don't think it's a fluke with Indy and Jacksonville can
now run the ball and play defense, which is going
(20:09):
to alleviate a lot for Trevor Lawrence. So I think
they're both those teams are going to be bet on
simply because people are going to be expecting the wheels
to fall off pres at some point, and that's where
the value is going to come in for him.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Yeah, Listen, I'm worried about Indy. If I had to
pick one to be a bet on, I think I
would go with the Jags here. Do you like Indy on?
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Sorry?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Do you like the Jags on Monday Night against your
vaunted Kansas City Chiefs?
Speaker 3 (20:38):
No? I don't like anybody against Kansas City at this point.
They're going scorchtarth here. So but I can tell you this,
it's gonna be closer than people think. If the hook
is still available. Yeah, we're at the shot.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Eagles four and oh are This is a team that
really just hasn't played outstanding consistent football yet this year.
Does that bode well for them moving forward? Or are
they not as good as their four and oh record.
I am passing on the Eagles game against Denver minus
three and a half. But I love this team and
(21:12):
I'm looking to continue to bet on them.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah, and it's funny, like I said, their yardich is
weird with their differential, but they're so four and oh.
But now you're getting we always see the Buffalo text.
You're getting like a Philly discount. You know, this is
a line that should be five to five and a half,
it's now three and a half. Maybe there are some
spots here until they turn it around where you can
get them at a discount.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
Show two inconsistent offensively for my taste. They still can't
run the ball lane. Johnson's hurt again. They're coming off
a game in which they had to play in one
hundred degrees and they barely held on. And now they
got a pissed off Denver defense coming to town. We're
gonna learn a little some about Denver. But I'm looking
to fade Philadelphia here in spots because I just don't
(21:55):
it's a lot of football they've played over the last
couple of seasons here, and yeah, this is not at
the same team from a year ago, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Uh okay. We got three three and one teams in
the nfc A West. I'm looking to bet on the Rams.
I'm looking to bet on Seattle, and although the Rams
are playing San Fran, I'm actually looking to bet on
San Fran as well. I think there's gonna be a
lot of value with this team, even as injured as
they are. So I'm looking to bet on all three
(22:25):
of these teams.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Uh Art, As I'm with you, I like all three
teams as well. I do like the Rams this week,
even though the number is balloon to seven. Yeah, it's balloon.
San Francisco's got to get healthy, we know that. And Seattle,
I think is the most under the radar team. Their
trenches are amazing on both sides. I think the coach
is pretty good and Sam Donald has been pretty good.
(22:47):
So you gotta like what you've seen out of all
three of these teams.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Joe, Yeah, all of a sudden, the NFC West has
become interesting. Huh h. Seattle's good, except at some point
Sam Donald's gonna turn into a pumpkin. The schedule is easy,
enough for the forty nine ers to weather this injury storm,
but they better figure it out quickly. And I like
the Rams. I still think the Rams were the class
(23:11):
of that conference there and I still think they're the
ones to beat. When it's all said and.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Done, and our last three and one team is NOE,
we have two to go Detroit Lions. Look, we're paying
a premium, like we spoke about with the Bills. I
don't care this team covers or doesn't cover based on
their fourth downs. I'm in love with the Detroit Lions.
I have been for two years. I'm now a Detroit
(23:36):
Lion fan. So I'm not ever betting against the Detroit
Lions under this current regime.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Artwo Yeah, I mean this week, I wouldn't go lay
ten on the road, but I do like the Lions
moving forward.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Joe definitely not laying ten on the road anywhere. With Detroit,
I still say their defense is better than their offense,
and against better team, it's going to be interesting to
see how that plays out on the road.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
So wait a minute, their defense is better than their offense,
but their offense in the last year and a half
is the best offense in all of football.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
What the hell does a year and a half have
to do it. You don't have the same coordinators. You know,
offensive lineman red like, no, no, no, you do better
than their means folds. It means nothing. It means this season.
It means this season, their defense is better than it
(24:36):
was a year ago. The offense isn't as good. That's
what it means.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
But that's not what you said.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
You said, that's exactly what I said. I think their
defense is better than their offense this year.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
That's insane, That is insane. I know you're looking for
a man. Joe's your guy.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
He takes that back. Oh my lord, all right, mister Caprice,
Oh my lord.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
The baby Buccaneers. This is a team that I I'm
gonna look likely fade, but slightly moving forward.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Art. Yeah, they're starting to deal with a lot of
injuries as well. I do like Baker, so I think
there will be spots for me to find ways to
bet them. But I need them to get a lot
healthier on this offensive line.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Yeah, that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Joe can't keep winning games by having to come back
in the fourth quarter and needing miracles like it didn't
work last week, Although they had the shot last week
against Philadelphia. Couldn't get it done. But no, they got
to start playing better early and until so they're a
fade certainly in the first half for me, press.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
There we go, fade or not fade. That segment is over.
Art to Caesar, thanks for doing this, brother. What's going
on over at the Westgate? Anything we need to know about?
Speaker 2 (25:50):
No, I mean, listen, this is just a great time
in the year. You know yet day playoff baseball. I know,
eventually we'll have the other sports pop in, like the
NBA and NHL. Football is getting hot, so this is
just a wonderful time. When the calendar goes to October,
we're just busy as can be. So this is a
great time.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Yeah, eventually NHL Tuesday. Art to Caesar, any massive future
bet you've taken?
Speaker 2 (26:13):
You listen. We fight the Knights every year, pres hit
every year they could be the lowest team on the
board when they came in as an expansion team where
they could be the favorites. We always fight the Knights. Now, listen,
it's weird. It's like a good thing if they win,
because it's good for the book. You know, people come in,
it's good for the town all that, but we get
(26:33):
crushed if they win the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Yeah, well Mitch Martins on that team now, so they
will not Wis.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
That cop art, by the way, is it Canada?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Oh no, no, no, that's right. It's actually right down
the road for me. And I'll be with it tonight there,
Prez thinking about you. I'll just I'll let you'll take
a picture because that's about as close as you're ever
going to get to it here in a while.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
So we're good, Joe, take a picture of that cup.
I'd like to see you with them. Yes, we'll put
that up on tomorrow's shows. Yes, that could be your
dating profile picture to lure Nicole mmon in.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
The cup belongs in Florida. Press sorry, and so do you?
Speaker 2 (27:14):
She would won like the Aussie Rules Football Cup. Yeah,
I think she cares about the NHL Cup. No shot,
I know the name of that, the Kangaroo Cup. I
had no clue.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
You don't know the name of it either, You got
no idea either?
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Stop it.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Stop name a team.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
I can name some teams.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
These ones Brisbane.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Lions, Magpies. Awful conversation. It needs to end immediately. It
is terrible.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
The best name in sports freak magpies. What is the
a f L Trophy?
Speaker 3 (27:59):
I I.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Mean I have a picture of it.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
What is it called?
Speaker 1 (28:04):
What is it called? It's called the McLelland Trophy, the
McLellan that's.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
A good drinking game. Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
All right, Okay, get out of here.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
You're out of her, Thank you, R Joe.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
No, we got lots of show still to go. NFL
best Bets College football best bets are MLB rundown the
mail bag section. Real quick, everybody, Joe, you got a
five percent play up this weekend? Is that correct?
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Yes? I do, coming up in the NFL and fact
it will be posted later this afternoon, full right up
and all, so get ready love this play, first one
in the NFL. In fact, press.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Guys, I've got a college football five percent as well,
so we need a promover that.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Tom tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Well, we have a little bit of a situation going
on at head office right now. Our two customer service
ladies lost their father. Yes, so yeah, But anyway, Joe's
got a five percent in NFL. I've got my first
five percent college football play of the season as well,
and that's on Saturday. I do have a promo to
(29:15):
give you, guys. It's an NFL thirty. That's thirty days
of my NFL plays for one hundred and thirty nine dollars.
I'm nineteen and nine on the NFL. You're that's sixty
eight percent over twenty percent ROI all ready, and I've
got one Thursday Night play and a whole ton of
(29:36):
stuff that you guys on Sunday. Joe, how's your baseball going?
Anything going for the clients in baseball?
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Already up locked and loaded for today. I would head
over there and grab it for a nine bucks here.
Pez it's been crazy. It's it's been a hell of
a run in Major League baseball.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Okay, there we go, Joe. Let's start with our first
and FL best bet. Let's go across the pond. We're
heading into the Minnesota Cleveland game. And I got to
tell you, Joe, this is one of my favorite bets
on the board. I'm giving it out on this show.
And that is team total of Cleveland under sixteen and
a half. It is slightly juiced somewhere around minus one thirty,
(30:18):
but under sixteen and a half points for the Cleveland Browns.
And I understand Dylan Gabriel is playing. I don't care
who plays for quarterback at the quarterback position in Cleveland.
This Cleveland team cannot score, and they're playing a defense
that is really tough for veteran quarterbacks to figure out
(30:41):
how to play against. I cannot imagine being thrown into
the fire as a Cleveland quarterback having to play against
a Minnesota defense, having to play against Minnesota who just
had coming off a loss. Joe, I don't think Cleveland
puts up thirteen points. I'd be surprised if Cleveland gets
(31:02):
a touchdown in this game. Take under sixteen and a
half of the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
Yeap, gone ahead, and plus Minnesota's been there now for
two weeks. All rest upon there, ye all right present.
It's disgusting, it's gross. Are you holding your nose? Are
you holding it? Good? Now? Push your chips in the
middle and back Carolina against the Miami Dolphins coming up
this week, third worst defense in yards per play allowed.
(31:29):
That's what the Dolphins bring to the table. They're traveling
on a short week. No, Tyreek Hill Panthers can't win
on the road, but at home, well, they just beat
Atlanta thirty to nothing, didn't they and they looked absolutely
horrific in New England. Asses are on the line here
this Sunday in Charlotte. I would expect a huge performance.
(31:51):
And this is a defense that Bryce Young can actually
light up. Here. Give me Carolinas a home dog.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Pres they are all yours, Joe and are Let's go
into our college football best bets and I'm gonna look
at b y you first half minus ten and a half.
Known as the most frustrated male team in the world,
the BYU team. That's just a joke there. Boom bam,
blahbah blah. Anyway, this game goes on Friday night. West
(32:22):
Virginia has to fly to Provo and play a ten
to thirty Eastern game. They're gonna be pretty damn tired,
and they're doing it without their starting QB or a
few of their offensive starters. They are dealing with a
ton of injuries. Not that that matters anyway. This West
Virginia team has been outscored sixty by sixty five points
(32:45):
in a pair of Big Twelve games. They did not
cross the goal line during the first half in either game.
I gotta look at this first half here, Joe. I'm
not gonna take the whole game. I'm gonna focus on
the first half. It's minus ten and a half take
BYU over West Virginia.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Yeah, poor rich Rod not working out the way he
thought it would the second go round at West Virginia.
You know where else it's not working is my alma
mata there with the Oklahoma State Cowboys, who after an
embarrassing loss to Tulsa.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Yeah, well they had to.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
Fire Mike Gundy. And what they do last week while
they were home against Baylor and at least they showed
some signs of life offensively. The problem is that they
gave up over six hundred yards of total offense to Baylor.
And what did they do well? Now they fired their
defensive coordinator, Todd Grantham. Yay, things are going swimmingly for
(33:40):
the Oklahoma State Cowboys from this point on. Anytime they
are playing a team with a heartbeat, I will be
backing that team total to go over. And I can
assure you Arizona is going to put up a ton
of points on this absolutely horrific Oklahoma State defense. Doesn't
matter who the coach prez, It's over for Oklahoma State.
(34:02):
Arizona putting up a ton of points this week.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
There we go, Joe, keep going MLB rundown four games,
break him down? All right?
Speaker 3 (34:10):
So what do we got here today, Prez? We have
got early action between Detroit and the Guardians. That is
Game one again told you yesterday, did mind in fact
the Guardians for such a low scoring both offenses take
the point and a half. That's what we gave the clients.
That is why they cash that ticket. Now today, I
(34:33):
do like the Guardians to come back and win Game
two to force a Game three. Why because Tanner Biby's
on the mound and he has been absolutely dominant for
the Guardians here, especially the last two times out against
the Detroit Tigers, a lineup in which cannot hit right
handed pitching. They didn't hit it yesterday against Gavin Williams.
(34:54):
They're not gonna hit it again here today. And Casey
miz is not schooball So go ahead, back the Guardians
and Baby to get it done in this game. The
Cubs and the Padres didn't even think Dylan Cease would
be on this roster for the postseason, but here he
is starting for the Padres. Kidrich is going for the
Cubs and he's gonna give way to Imanaga, who has
(35:17):
been absolutely horrific in the first inning. That's why they're
going with a opener here. He has struggled in a
big way to start games. I think if Padres are
in a good spot to bounce back here, they will
deploy that bullpen as soon as Dylan Cease gets into trouble.
So I will look at the Padres. The Yankees have
(35:39):
a big advantage with Rodan on the mound. If the
baseball guards have any sort of sense of humor, they're
gonna have to give us a Game three between the
Yankees and the Red Sox for everything. And I told
you a couple of days ago, I wanted to congratulate
the Reds for making the postseason. However, your postseason is over.
You'll be making tea time here tonight. I would even
(36:01):
lay the run and a half with the Dodgers tonight.
Much of what you got last night you're gonna get
again here tonight. Dodgers playing from in front bullpen implodes
for the Reds. I'll take the Dodgers on the rud
line press. I couldn't agree with you more.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Joe. Let's get to our mailback section. We're gonna start
with Jeffrey Wilson seventy six twelve. He writes, Pres is terrible.
Who in the world would pay this guy for his picks?
Instead of answering directly, Joe, I had an army of
fans come in and respond. One of them writes, is
(36:39):
this satire? You clearly don't watch his presidential address. Another
one writes, Jeffrey, if you're so confident that he sucks,
fade him. You're gonna lose a lot of money. Another
gentleman unknown rights, thanks for all the winners Pres started
watching in twenty twenty one. Yeah, I'm up eighty units
(37:00):
since March. I'm destroying the NFL, and you want to
get up there and put my integrity on the line
with your nonsense, Jeffrey Wilson, That's okay. Everybody else told
you at how good I really am at sports betting.
Paul Bowman writes Joe should host the show, Sorry, Prez.
My response was, Joe hosts every goddamn show on sports Grid.
(37:25):
Give him a freaking break. Yes, yes, yes, Brewers are
not winning the World Series, rob Christians and any anything there.
Speaker 3 (37:34):
Joe, then don't bet him.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Do you think they can win it.
Speaker 3 (37:39):
I have a ticket on the Brewers here. I got
no problem backing. They're the only team left, Prez that's
actually consistently beat the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Yeah, well, the Blue Jays don't get that opportunity very often.
And as for teaser bets that we spoke about yesterday,
the concept when betting teasers is to go through three
seven as often as you can. So if it's plus
two and a half, you take six points, you're an
eight and a half. That takes you to three and seven.
The key numbers, that's what you are trying to focus on.
(38:10):
You can come up or down. Most of the professionals
like to go up two and a half to eight
instead of eight and a half to two, So I
do suggest going up more than down and to try
to cross those key numbers as often as possible. With
that said, and I know we're out of time here, Joe,
I want to discuss tomorrow the difference between betting teasers
(38:33):
and using the old line to get a better number,
which is what I suggest people do. Joe. That's the show, bro,
Thanks for doing this, man.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
Dandy, Prez. Outstanding stuff. Nicole Kidman line too. By the way,
we're going to talk to you.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
Yes, yes, Joe, Hi, it's Nicole Kidman calling. You can
just can the show anytime you want. I'm just gonna
talk to Nicole on your behalf perfect it. Joe's very handsome,
very tansel.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
And just like that, we lost this microphone. I don't
know how that happened, Prez. I should host the show instead.
I produce it so I can do things like this
like shut your ASTs up when a madismos. Have a
great day, Guys, cash those tickets. We'll be back again
tomorrow as the best betting show ever here on Wager

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
