Open wide, here comes a “Hot N Ready” episode of AAO as right off the top we get a pizza breakdown from Harry, a man of means, who bewilderingly chooses to go with Little Caesar’s. Brother Bri calls his shot with Thursday’s “Race to Ten”. Tune in to see if the Celtics can get it done. Big stat of the day, when the spread is 6 points or fewer, teams are 73-0-2. So stick with the “Sal Special” of -9.5 on both sides. A “Russian Doll” of bets from the fellas emerges as everyone likes the Game, Half, and Quarter for their picks tonight.

Cousin Sal likes Klay TPK likes Tatum for the “Picks of the Day” for your Underdog account, while Harry and Brother Bri like a few player props from Fan Duel

Off to the PGA US Open as Writer/Author/Producer and friend of the show, Paul Koehorst stops in to talk about the PGA US Open and the lurking LIV league and gives his thoughts on how PGA can fix some issues. The challenges of Brookline, blind tee shots, and undulating greens, will be an issue for some but Paul thinks it looks promising for Justin Thomas. Is Scheffler on the slide? The fellas give their picks while Koehorst’s literal diamond in the rough is Justin Thomas.

Harry has an NCAA World Series pick and it’s the correct one, Hook Em Horns!
