This is Follow The Money with Mitch Moss and Pauly Howard on VSiN.

**Pauly Howard** (0:11)
Here we go, welcome in. It is Follow The Money on VSiN, the eSports betting network. Mitch Moss along with Pauly Howard. We're live downtown Vegas from the Circa Resort at Casino. Three hour banger lined up today as we have the NFL back, baby.
Sal Paolantonio on the program coming up in 30 minutes. Are the Rams making a mistake? That report yesterday that came out, they're going to get to Australia one day before their week one game against the 49ers. Paul Stone today, give me two Utah. In a preview, the Pac-12 and the ACC. Kevin Rogers, Major League Baseball as well. You know, here's all I ask for tonight, because we do have Arizona and Carolina. Chances are it's going to be a boring football game, probably a dud.
And for those of you who, for weeks now, probably going back to May have been saying, give me Miami and Tennessee right now. I need football in my veins. No complaining, football's back. So no pissing and moaning over tonight. If it's 10 to six and nothing happens and you don't recognize anybody, don't want to hear it.

**Pauly Howard** (1:11)
That'll be plenty of flags.

**Pauly Howard** (1:12)
There will be, there will be.

**Pauly Howard** (1:14)
It'll be messy.

**Pauly Howard** (1:14)
But enjoy it because this is the fastest summer I can ever remember.
And we never, usually like in June, July, we're saying, God, please fast forward to the NFL. Didn't have to do it this year because the World Cup carried us. And it's here quicker than ever. And it's a great feeling, man, to have it back.

**Pauly Howard** (1:28)
Yeah. Well said. Yep. And the A's lost again.
You bet against the A's and you bet on the Red Sox. Just rinse, repeat.

**Pauly Howard** (1:36)
What do you think? The Reds were probably a small number just to have the sweep in that series.

**Pauly Howard** (1:41)
Yeah, right. Well, do you see the A's play tomorrow?

**Pauly Howard** (1:44)
I didn't look yet.

**Pauly Howard** (1:45)
They go to Fenway for three. What's that series price?

**Pauly Howard** (1:48)
Watch. It's baseball. Watch the A's take two out of three.

**Sal Paolantonio** (1:51)
Oh, man.

**Pauly Howard** (1:53)
Boston's won 30 of 35 The A's are five and 28, and they've lost 34 of 43

**Sal Paolantonio** (2:01)
Oh, man.

**Pauly Howard** (2:01)
Yeah, not going so hot. I might be on the wrong Bay Area team to have the most losses in baseball. Yeah. Well, the way they're right, no doubt.

**Pauly Howard** (2:08)
That'd be all right. It's great to have it back. I think there's a lot of bets to be made with Arizona and their futures. But this is I'm surprised at the last four Hall of Fame games have gone over.
We're seeing under money now down to 33 and a half in some spots was 36 and a half.

**Pauly Howard** (2:22)
Not that long ago.

**Pauly Howard** (2:23)
That's right.

**Sal Paolantonio** (2:24)
Yeah.

**Pauly Howard** (2:24)
What do you think?

**Pauly Howard** (2:26)
OK, well, here's what I wanted to do with the game. And that is and I assume going in today that most books would not allow you to tease the game because I would be intrigued by a two team teaser on this game. Give me Arizona plus seven and a half when it was one and a half and then tease it or tease it. Yeah. Below like forty one, forty one and a half. I did find a book that allowed to do that, but the juice is actually higher now than it is in the regular season. And typically like the Wong teasers, you can kiss the minus one ten goodbye. You still want to lay the minus one fifteen, one twenty, whatever you might be able to find. So a six and a half point teaser to get it above like forty one and a half or below, I should say.
And then seven and a half as well was like minus one thirty in that range. But you can find it if you shop around.

**Pauly Howard** (3:13)
Yeah, but sure, sure. There could be a surprise tonight, though, too.

**Pauly Howard** (3:16)
Haynes King?

**Pauly Howard** (3:17)
Well, who knows? But look at these quarterbacks that are playing, right?
I mean, I kind of like what Joe Osborne did. He bet Carolina first half pointing out that you have a veteran in Pickett and a guy who has played well in his career in the preseason. So you have that angle. So you're going to have Beck and Slovis for Arizona and Pickett and Haynes King. And maybe you're right. Maybe King is the perfect guy where not on the same page. Play breaks down. Just take off and run for 10 yards and move the chains and it works out. Yeah.
