Chapter 1: What is 'Against the Spread' and who sponsors it?
That's right. It's time for Against the Spread. And it's brought to you by our friends at DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Jeremy, what do we got?
The Auburn Tigers are the number one team in the country in college basketball. Had won 14 in a row before losing to the Florida Gators. They are at vanderbilt tonight before a huge matchup against number two alabama this weekend it's a get right game for auburn they are favored by nine and a half we're taking auburn against the spread mike ryan
Chapter 2: Who are the favorites in the Four Nations tournament?
We're turning our attention to the 51st state potentially up in Canada. That's right. The four nations begins this week and on Thursday will be in that barn when Finland take on the United States of America. Now the United States of America are co-favorites with Canada in this tournament. However, I think they'll get out to a slow start.
I really like this Finland team because they've got a lot of Florida Panthers. And I don't think that there's a natural replacement on this roster yet for Quinn Hughes, who has recently, we've all learned, is not going to be playing in this. Jake Sanderson might be able to step up, but maybe not that early. Maybe it takes him a game or two to figure that out.
So I'm going with Finland plus one and a half against the United States against the Sprint.
Chapter 3: What insights does JuJu Gotti share about common phrases?
All righty then. Hey, Juju, how you doing? I'm doing pretty good, brother. Good to see you, man. I have an admission to make real quick. When I heard Christopher say, brought to you by, when I was a kid, and this is the truth. Oh, boy. No, I used to hear people say, brought to you by, and I always thought, for three years of my life, I thought it was brock to you by. V-R-O-C-K.
For three years you thought that, right?
Yeah, back when I was like, you know, six, seven, eight years old, learning words, learning sentences, because it always sounded like it. Brock to you by, right? Am I wrong? No. He's right.
I'm not crazy. He thought that.
Juju, OK, thank you. I appreciate that universal support.
So you decided that that would be the way to lead this segment.

Chapter 4: What topics did the crew discuss too much today?
Brought to you by, because I heard him say it. And nobody denies that it sounds like brought to you by. It just doesn't make sense as brought to you by. OK, you could he could start saying brought to you by and then name a sponsor and the sponsor would never know the difference. Yeah, it would be fine. Yeah. OK, Juju, quick question. Yes, sir. What did we talk too much about today on the show?
And the finalists are Heat slash Jimmy Butler or vampires?
You can never talk enough vampires, so that's crossed off the list. We're good there. I think the Jimmy Butler thing has grown on the audience just a little bit much, but hey, I'm here for it. And me.
Okay. And me.
We had no information.
Did we? Speaking of new information, Tubby from YouTube says, new Greg shirt alert. Is it a new shirt?

Chapter 5: Why is the Dallas Mavericks organization criticized?
It used to be. It's not, really. He's been wearing the same three shirts, and I've told him he should wear no other shirts because they look much better than the ones from the Rumpled collection.
The Pressbox collection.
The Pressbox collection of dusty, dirty, 30-year-old shirts.
My plaid shirts that I've worn for 40 years. No, my wife bought me three of these shirts. They're a slightly different color, black, dark blue, and slightly lighter blue. Bad arm week? Yeah, bad arm life. And so I'm wearing them continually now. I even wear them as pants. I wear shirts, and then I wear the shirt as pants. Yeah. And so I'm like wearing two shirts at once.
Chapter 6: What is the situation with Dalton Knecht?
These sleeves are all stretched out because they don't fit over my legs nearly as well as I thought they might.
Out of material, are you? Okay, good. I've noticed when that happens. Juju, what else do you have?
I agree with Stu Gatz, man. Dallas Mavericks organization, shame on you, man, for charging all that money to these games, and then you're going to kick somebody off of what's in their fandom? Ah, man. Joker of the day goes to you guys.
Juju, do you agree with Mike that they would just take it back if you gave them the chance right now, the Mavericks?
Yeah, for sure. Absolutely. 100% agree with Mike. Speaking of that, those take backs and everything. I don't think we discussed this. This also keep my brother Dalton connect in our prayers because it has to be a mental gymnastics to go back to a place that, you know, people don't want you and don't. necessarily think the world of you, and you still have to perform at a high clip, man.
Prayers to Dalton Connect.
All right, I think praying is a bit too much, but I'm with you, because it's confusing, right? Dalton Connect actually went to a shoot-around for the Hornets, and now he's back playing for the Lakers. Crazy!
Right. It's a crazy, crazy, crazy story to see Connect on the bench, clearly upset. The Hornets' statements have gone back and forth and made it seem like the Lakers aggressively pursued Mark Williams, but the Lakers are claiming that's not the case. It is really uncomfortable for every player involved.
Well, maybe he's just trying to fit out.
