Kelley Bydlon (0:00)

The numbers told the story, they always do. It's one of those idiots who believe in analytics.

This is A Numbers Game with Gill Alexander on VSiN.

Gill Alexander (0:08)

Our number two of A Numbers Game at VSiN, the sports betting network, vsin.com, GamePlus, iHeartRadio, YouTube TV, and of course, Series XM Channel 189, Gill Alexander, Kelley Bydlon, yo! Apparently, this water taste test head to head is going to happen.

Kelley Bydlon (0:23)

It's going to happen, it's going to happen.

Gill Alexander (0:25)

Let's just see how, how sensitive the palette is to different kinds of water.

Kelley Bydlon (0:31)

Evian, Fiji, Aquapana, and generic bottled water.

Gill Alexander (0:38)

Aquapana and Evian will be tough to distinguish.

Kelley Bydlon (0:41)

I'm going to go with generic casino bottled water.

Gill Alexander (0:43)

We'll call it that.

Kelley Bydlon (0:44)

They all have to come from the same places, right?

Gill Alexander (0:48)

I'm not so sure about that. By the way, did you get the Greg Peterson reference earlier? At all?

Kelley Bydlon (0:53)

I don't know, it's an editing software.

Gill Alexander (0:55)

Yeah, I was like, what are we talking about?

Kelley Bydlon (0:57)

We're old, man, who knows? I'm sure it's like a TikTok, like editing thing or something like that.

Gill Alexander (1:02)

We get tweets, beating the book. I always appreciate it. Best listeners in the game. This is from, let's see, Mike Zill's Duke 90 Did we land on Alec Bloch's or did Alec Bloch's land on us?

Did we land on Plymouth Rock? Was it Plymouth Rock landed on us? The great Denzel Washington as Malcolm X in Spike Lee's Malcolm X. Jesse Welch. It's funny to hear all the hullabaloo. Great use of the word. He was complimenting himself. He said, it's funny to hear all the hullabaloo, parentheses, great use of the word, over the Michigan game. For us soccer fans, we're used to having no clue how much time is actually left in a game. Yeah.

We know. Not our football though, Jesse. Cheap prop bets. Just have Pablo look into the judge thing. We'll get the truth. Michael Burns. How about another hot dog eating contest? The last was a hoot.

Vegas conservative. Oh, that's for something else. Sorry about that. This is from Ryan Hyatt. Fact, if Gill and Kelly don't understand how big hot dog works by now as to what took place on July 4, 2026, you don't investigate big hot dog. Big hot dog investigates you tread lightly. My friends, thanks for getting thanks for setting a great example for the youth of America and showing up to work today. Great show. Thank you, Ryan.

Kelley Bydlon (2:13)

That's pretty funny. I was told that as a kid, Gill, you don't mess with Oscar Mayer, all right?

Gill Alexander (2:19)

Take it easy. Kev is mad at you. He's quoting you. He says, includes the White Sox, I guess. Wow, Kelly. Go White Sox. Did you say that? Oh, yeah.

Kelley Bydlon (2:28)

We were talking about the one seed market.

Gill Alexander (2:31)

Montreal Max, Kelley and Gill, thank you for your service on Labor Day morning. And as we used to say booking offshore, we're on when they're off. So now let's catch some tennis winners. Offer your lips to God, Montreal Max. Oh, and then Chance Copperbott let me know, speaking of telemarketing, I too was one as a 17 year old young man. Have you seen the three part docuseries telemarketer telemarketer dollar sign? I guess it's called telemarketers with a dollar sign as the S on HBO came out in twenty twenty three produced by Danny McBride. Highly recommend. I didn't see that.

Wow. I remember like my second produced by Danny McBride. My second day doing telemarketing, some girl on the other end was like she was like, I ain't buy what you're selling, but boy, you said it was flurried. I was like, OK, I like this job.

Boy, you sound good. I was like, hey, hey, hey, Chris Heath. Question is, which big MLB favorite do I not parlay with the SMU money line? Shots fired at Kelly's FSU Seminoles.

Kelley Bydlon (3:27)

Oh, I keep checking in on that line. Have you done anything with this game tonight? No, you would either with it.

Gill Alexander (3:33)

I have not. I'll be live. I'll be live and heavy two and a half.

Kelley Bydlon (3:36)

So cheap threes available. Where are we going? Two point seven five, two point seven five.

Gill Alexander (3:41)

Seven five.

Kelley Bydlon (3:42)

Two point seven five out there. I'm a little surprised we haven't seen the full move at some places to three and a half like they're they're holding strong. They don't want to push this past the three Florida state at home. Catching points.
