Hey, folks, it's Tim Murray, and here we are. College football season, long Saturdays ahead, and staying locked in for an entire day of football takes a little bit more than coffee. Loreen's new pouch is built exactly for that, without the nicotine. It works just like the pouches you've seen before. Tuck one in and go about your day. Each has 50 milligrams of caffeine, about half a cup of coffee, plus L-theanine and alpha GPC for smooth, steady focus with no crash. And because it's Loreen, it's also got nano hydroxyapatite, the mineral your teeth are made of. So it gives your daily enamel support in between brushings. It's smooth energy without the jitters, and it comes in mint, cinnamon, and mango, all nicotine free. I love the cinnamon. Give Loreen a try.

**Tim Murray** (1:33)
Opposite field, Homer Matt for Fernando Tatis Jr. San Diego Padres have a 2-1 lead right now over the Cincinnati Reds. Padres half game lead over the Diamondbacks for the final wild card spot for Tatis. Eighteenth homerun of the season. Remember, he was off to a very, very slow start. We got a, I believe a double play here in Chicago. Gets Matthew Boyd a little bit of help, old 6-4-3 double play. So top of the second inning for our game of the night, Matt, at Wrigley Field. It is scoreless between the Brewers and the Cubs. All right, let's head to our progressive guest line as we get more runs. Oh, jeez.
The Pittsburgh Pirates have scored more runs.

**Matt Youmans** (2:16)
11-5, bottom of the third Pittsburgh over San Francisco.

**Tim Murray** (2:19)
Paul Skeens can't say he didn't get run support here tonight. All right, let's go to that progressive guest line. And before we do that, we've got an open for our next guest. Where are the lines changing? And where's the money going? Let's go behind the counter.
Senior Risk Manager here at Circa Sports, Jeff Sherman joins us every Tuesday. You could follow him on social media at GolfOdds. Jeff, before we dive into NFL news and notes, we've got Circa Survivors, Circa Millions and Circa Grandisimo. How was the weekend here at Circa? I know you were on a panel with Mike Palm and Austin Eckler, a lot of folks here in town. It was buzzing. How many folks signed up for all of the contests?

**Jeff Sherman** (3:02)
Yeah, fantastic weekend, great response. Pacing ahead on all three contests right now, Circa Million sitting at 3,800.
Last year, 3,361 at this time. Survivors got over 16,000 when we had 10,000 at this time last year. And Grand Isimo, 38 when last year was 22 So all of them pacing very well, so we're excited about it.

**Matt Youmans** (3:25)
As I was talking to David Rossborough, Derek Stevens' right-hand man outside the studio here before the show. And I know those guys are thrilled with the contest numbers. And Jeff, you see some of the projections. How big do you think, realistically, in the next five years, how big do you think Circa Survivor could get?

**Jeff Sherman** (3:44)
Well, I mean, I would think somewhere close to 25 this year. I mean, with the growth of it and the rate, I mean, you could 30 to 40 I don't think that's unrealistic. It's, I mean, at some point you think there's some attrition, but it just becomes so popular and people love the simplicity of it. And that's why you see the rate that that one's growing. So, I mean, the sky's the limit and it's a great idea. They were the first one to really carry that.
But it's just taken off fantastically.

**Matt Youmans** (4:13)
Yeah, I've heard some projections from 50 million is not far away, Tim.

**Jeff Sherman** (4:18)
Oh, man.

**Matt Youmans** (4:18)
We'll see. I mean, it's probably going to hit 25 this season. Some people think 50 is not too far away, maybe within the next five years. We'll see. Jeff, after the NFL preseason wraps, we've got 53-man rosters, we've got cuts, we've got movement, Aaron Donald's with the Rams, Josh Jacobs out with the Packers.
Any teams that you guys have adjusted on futures a little bit over the last week or two?

**Jeff Sherman** (4:44)
Well, we actually made no adjustment at all regards to Josh Jacobs. It didn't affect the week one point spread, the season win total, anything to do with them. That's typically what you get out of a running back situation. But with the Rams, Aaron Donald coming back, did lower them a little bit. They were plus 515, plus 500 What we're seeing from the Rams is they're really being tied up in parlays to a lot of teams. Most notably, I see every day Rams to Dodgers, and then you throw Notre Dame and things like that in there. But the liability is mounting parlay-wise, but they're obviously the starting point in the NFL.
