This is Live Bet Sunday on VSiN, The Sports Betting Network.
It's a great day to be alive, and it's a great day to be a better. Welcome to another edition of Live Bet Sunday here on VSiN, The Sports Betting Network. Femi Abebefe alongside Joe Ceraulo, hanging with you guys on this Sunday Fun Day, exactly three weeks away, Joe, from the witching hour, week one of the National Football League. How are we doing on this Sunday, my man?

**Joe Ceraulo** (0:32)
Oh man, I can't wait. Are you talking about seven hours of commercial inclusion Live Bet Sunday?

**Angelo Magliocca** (0:38)
Hey baby, I can't wait.

**Femi Abebefe** (0:40)
I can't wait.

**Joe Ceraulo** (0:42)
It's an exciting time of the year, man. I mean, you know, it's late August, it's almost cuffing season, it's almost football season. We're just, we're going on boats, you know, while we still can, we're living our best lives out here.

**Femi Abebefe** (0:53)
Our guy, Joe Ceraulo texted our show chat that, it was, it was a fun Saturday evening for him. Maybe we'll get into that. Maybe we won't. We'll clear that first during the commercial break.

**Joe Ceraulo** (1:03)
There's no football yet. There's no football yet. And the show's called Live Bet Sunday. So maybe we will dive into what's going on. That's keeping things live here in Los Angeles.

**Femi Abebefe** (1:12)
Hey, as he said, cuffing season, almost here.
As it is August 23rd, as always, make sure to hang with us wherever you go ahead and get your podcasts. You can listen to us on SiriusXM Channel 158, vsin.com/watch. We're hanging with you guys for three hours. Do you want to make sure I get that clear? It's three hours. I wasn't here last Sunday, but two weeks ago, we first went to three hours. So we are a three hour program now, no longer a four hour Odyssey. But as always, hit us.

**Joe Ceraulo** (1:38)
Good thing we're not in the Middle East together because you deserted me last weekend, man.

**Femi Abebefe** (1:42)
Amen.

**Joe Ceraulo** (1:43)
Good to know I can rely on you, Femi. Good to know I can rely on you.

**Femi Abebefe** (1:47)
I had stuff going on that I am not privy to announce just yet, but I will announce it sometime. I don't even know why I put it that way. I just haven't announced it, but we will do it. I am like anti-millennial, dude. I don't know why. I am like a weird millennial. I keep stuff to myself. I don't know why. But for those that know me, they know what I am saying.

**Joe Ceraulo** (2:08)
You did a crap job right there.

**Femi Abebefe** (2:10)
Yeah.
But maybe we are not going to get into it, actually. I am not even going to say maybe. We are not going to get into it, but we can maybe joke about that during some point during the break. As always, tweet us at VSinLive on Twitter, at Femi Abebefe is where you can find me, at the Joe Ceraulo is where you can find Joe. We got our whole crew behind the glass with us here at Circa, our producer Preston Saia with us on the ones and twos. We'll have one guest joining us here in 30 minutes from now. MLB analysts for CBS Sports HQ, Angelo Magliocca will be hanging with us to get into today's betting card. Also some big picture baseball topics, as well as a little bit of a slower start to the Sunday baseball activity today. There's usually that early peacock game at 11 AM Eastern time. There's a really early, for some reason, I was looking around this morning, 10 o'clock in the morning West Coast time, one o'clock in the afternoon for our friends out on the East Coast. I'm like, where the hell is the baseball at? Where are the games at? But we do have the games finally underway in Major League Baseball. So we'll be keeping our eyes on that throughout these three hours. Of course, one of the games that is about to get underway, a very interesting one between the Red Sox and the Giants as the surging Boston Red Sox continue their winning ways after what we saw last night. But anything that jumps out to you in the early going here with this baseball card, Joe?

**Joe Ceraulo** (3:35)
Yeah, how could what's going on in the city of brotherly love not stand out to you? St. Louis taking it to Christopher Sanchez early at home. I say taking it, taking it to him to the tune of three runs, to three nothing lead for the Cardinals.
