WEBVTT - BettingPros NFL Podcast: The Intro

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:27.280
<v Speaker 1>Hello there everyone. My name is Dan Harris, and if

0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:29.040
<v Speaker 1>you are a fan of pretty much any of the

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Fantasy Bros. Podcasts, then you already know me. I'm the

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:35.880
<v Speaker 1>host of the Leading Off Fantasy Baseball podcast, the sometimes

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:39.000
<v Speaker 1>host of the Weekly Fantasy Bros. Baseball podcast, and the

0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:42.559
<v Speaker 1>host of the Sunday Night Fantasy Bros. Football Podcast. Now,

0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:44.800
<v Speaker 1>you might be thinking, but I am listening to none

0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:47.280
<v Speaker 1>of those podcasts at the moment. Well, that is a

0:00:47.280 --> 0:00:50.159
<v Speaker 1>fair point, and I admire your attention to detail. The

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.040
<v Speaker 1>reason for that is that you are listening to a

0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:56.240
<v Speaker 1>new podcast, the Betting Pros NFL Podcast, and it's something

0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:58.960
<v Speaker 1>we're pretty excited about. And my guess is if you

0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:01.720
<v Speaker 1>come along with us, you're going to be too. Right now,

0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:04.959
<v Speaker 1>already about twenty percent of states are taking sports bets,

0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:07.399
<v Speaker 1>and that number is going to jump to about thirty

0:01:07.400 --> 0:01:09.600
<v Speaker 1>three percent by the end of the year. And if

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:12.679
<v Speaker 1>you think playing fantasy football is fun, wait until Damian

0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Williams catches his fifth ball of the game to win

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:17.960
<v Speaker 1>you you're over under prop bet on how many catches he'll

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 1>have that week against the Broncos, or when the Rams

0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:23.319
<v Speaker 1>and Saints win you the over on whatever preposterously high

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>total your local sports book has set, or when Aaron

0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Rodgers there's a late and probably unnecessary touchdown pass to

0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Devontae Adams to cover the spread for you against the Lions.

0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 1>But here's the thing. You're a responsible person. Before you

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 1>make any lineup decision for your fantasy football team. You're

0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 1>doing your research, you're checking your rankings, You're putting your

0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 1>energy into ensuring that whatever decision you're making that week,

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:47.600
<v Speaker 1>you've got a good reason to do so. And do

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 1>you think that we're going to let you wander into

0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 1>the wilderness of NFL sports betting without proper guidance. No,

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>of course we're not. And that's why we've created Betting Pros,

0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.600
<v Speaker 1>and that's why we're doing this podcast this week during

0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.480
<v Speaker 1>the NFL season. We're gonna have sports betting experts on

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>and together we're gonna break down some of our best

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>bets for that week's game. We'll talk about bets against

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 1>the spread, over unders, prop bets, the works. You're gonna

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:16.040
<v Speaker 1>get concrete, actionable advice from people who are pretty much

0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:18.760
<v Speaker 1>focused on the NFL twenty four to seven, and we're

0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:20.960
<v Speaker 1>not gonna wait until the regular season begins to get

0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:24.160
<v Speaker 1>started because there's plenty of action to be had right now.

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:27.320

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:30.600
<v Speaker 1>one episode per week in August. Throughout the preseason, we're

0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna cover our favorite over underwin totals who we like

<v Speaker 1>at their current odds to win the division or make

0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs, as well as individual player bets for the season.

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:42.320
