Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Monday February 2nd. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler opened the Monday edition of Cash That Ticket with momentum on their side, coming off a profitable end to the previous week and turning their attention to a compact but information heavy NBA slate alongside early Super Bowl positioning. With the league nearing the trade deadline, both hosts framed the night through market movement, injury context, and situational betting angles rather than headline narratives. Early discussion centered on the Lakers loss at Madison Square Garden, which validated a well timed under after late game scoring dried up, reinforcing the value of collaboration and market awareness. That theme carried into the first matchup, where Essler noted Charlotte's recent improvement but flagged the Hornets as increasingly overvalued, pointing to ticket percentages and line movement that made New Orleans the sharper side in an early start with limited home court impact. The focus then shifted to Houston at Indiana, where Kevin Durant's absence reshaped the handicap. Essler leaned toward Rockets scoring despite the total dipping, citing Indiana's defensive issues and Houston's shot volume, while Manji highlighted Alperen Sengun's expanded role and motivation following an All Star snub. Minnesota at Memphis was treated as a classic rematch spot, with Essler cautioning against overreaction to the prior high scoring game and leaning toward the Grizzlies plus the points amid injury uncertainty and regression factors. The nightcap between Philadelphia and the Clippers drew attention for pace and scheduling dynamics. Essler favored the under, emphasizing the Clippers' slow tempo and Joel Embiid's effect on game flow, while Manji leaned toward the Sixers as short underdogs, noting Philadelphia's strong performance on back to backs and Embiid's historical success in the matchup. The conversation later widened to NFL coaching moves, with measured skepticism around Buffalo's promotion of Joe Brady given a demanding schedule and Super Bowl level expectations, and cautious optimism for Las Vegas under Clint Kubiak amid a clear rebuild and roster volatility. Prop bets closed the discussion, with Essler backing Jason Myers to convert a long field goal based on usage trends and trust factors, and Manji targeting Kenneth Walker's receiving production as a pressure release against New England. The episode maintained a consistent through line, focusing on disciplined evaluation, market context, and long term betting process rather than chasing isolated results.

The Philadelphia Phillies season is just around the corner and Spring Training will be here before we know it. Baseball season is almost here! That said, there are questions and storylines we're following when it comes to this Phillies team and what they'll look like here in 2026. This week, Matt Davis from ThatBallsOuttaHere.com over at Fansided joined the pod for a conversation about the Phillies offseason and what this coming season will hold. It was a fantastic discussion!But first, the guys gave their Super Bowl predictions and thoughts on the Eagles offensive coordinator search. (Approx. 4:50)From there, they got into a discussion about the Flyers and specifically how Trevor Zegras has seemingly hit a roadblock. How should Danny Briere address this? (Approx. 18:15)Then they dove into some NBA and Sixers talk. Giannis self-diagnosed an injury, which was bizarre. Quentin Grimes has fallen off a cliff, and what that could mean for the trade deadline. (Approx. 25:50)What they threw down on the Table this week was a great and in-depth conversation with Matt Davis from That Balls Outta Here about this upcoming Phillies season. Thoughts on the offseason hits and misses. What will the level of competition be as the Mets might truly be a contender again? Should we be skeptical of this team “running it back” or should we settle down and see what happens with this talented group of players? All of this and much more this week on the Table!

The WIP Midday Show tackles a loaded day in Philly sports. The show opens with a heated debate on whether Nick Sirianni should become the Eagles' offensive coordinator in 2026, followed by Rhea Hughes making it crystal clear why Sirianni should not be calling plays under any circumstances.

The show also responds to Mike Silver's controversial “Lil Jordan” Jalen Hurts report and the national narrative surrounding the Eagles' quarterback. Later, excitement builds around Philadelphia hosting the 2026 MLB All-Star Game, while Joe Giglio delivers a shocking take, saying he would trade Joel Embiid “in a heartbeat.” The show wraps with a forward-looking Eagles discussion on whether drafting a quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft makes sense, and a breakdown of why Bill Belichick was surprisingly snubbed from the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

The NBA is hitting its most chaotic point of the season. All-Star starters are announced, the new international team format is coming, half the league is injured, and the trade deadline is now days away.On this episode of the Hoop Genius Podcast, Mo and Coach Brendan Suhr break down everything shaping the league right now. They react to the All-Star starters in the East and West, debate whether Anthony Edwards was snubbed, and explain why Steph Curry, Wembanyama, and the international stars changed the entire structure of this year's game. They also dig into why winning should matter more in All-Star voting, why Embiid doesn't deserve to make it, and which players actually belong on the new international roster.The conversation shifts to the teams no one can figure out. The Timberwolves' inconsistency, Ant's on-off nights, and why Denver keeps winning even without Jokic. Peyton Watson's breakout, role players stepping up, and what that says about real internal development versus empty stats.Then it turns dark for Golden State. Jimmy Butler's non-contact ACL injury, Steph Curry still playing at an All-Star level at 37, and why the Warriors are now stuck in no-man's land. They explain why a Steph trade will never happen, why Kuminga's timing couldn't be worse, and why this roster has quietly hit a dead end.With the trade deadline looming, Mo and Coach explain why injured stars almost never get traded, what it would actually take to move a Giannis, AD, or Ja Morant, and why front offices won't gamble on damaged assets. They also break down two-way contracts, roster math, and why teams like Dallas are being forced into trades just to keep young players.They close with Rising Stars, Cooper Flagg, the new wave of international talent, Derrick Rose's jersey retirement, and what real legacy actually looks like.No filler. No narratives. Just what's actually happening in the NBA right now.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday Jan 14. Munaf Manji opened the January 14, 2026 edition of the Cash That Ticket Podcast by outlining a midweek betting discussion focused on NBA matchups, league news, and select NFL developments as the sports calendar moved deeper into January. Dave Essler joined the show and immediately referenced a successful live betting read from their previous discussion, noting they correctly anticipated a low scoring first quarter that finished exactly 3 to 0 before recommending the game over, which ultimately cashed at 32, reinforcing the value of game flow analysis and patience. Manji transitioned into an NBA recap, highlighting how player props can be derailed by blowouts, using Milwaukee's 139 to 106 home loss to Minnesota as the example. Giannis Antetokounmpo finished with 25 points and 8 rebounds, falling short of a 30.5 points prop and a 10.5 rebounds line after the game became noncompetitive, illustrating how reduced minutes can negate strong individual performance. Manji also referenced Phoenix erasing a 17 point deficit against Miami by winning the third quarter 38 to 21, only for late game execution to ruin certain bets, reinforcing the volatility of NBA markets. The conversation shifted to major NBA news surrounding Anthony Davis, with Essler noting conflicting reports but stressing that regardless of surgery language, Davis would miss several months. Essler pointed out Davis has frequently played only 20 to 50 games per season since 2020 and appeared in roughly 29 of 73 games with Dallas, questioning his trade value as he approaches age 33. Manji discussed potential fits, focusing on Detroit's 28 and 10 record and Cade Cunningham's MVP caliber season, arguing Davis could still impact both ends of the floor if healthy. Essler reframed the situation through a futures betting lens, citing Detroit at 20 to 1 and Toronto at 150 to 1 as examples of numbers that would move sharply if a trade occurred. The show then moved to Wednesday's NBA card, starting with Cleveland at Philadelphia, where the 76ers were favored by 1.5 with a 237.5 total. Cleveland entered at 22 and 19, while Philadelphia sat at 22 and 16 but just 10 and 9 at home. Essler explained why he liked Philadelphia despite most tickets on Cleveland, pointing to line movement from around 3.5 down to 1.5 and recent form with six wins in eight games. Manji agreed, citing Joel Embiid's matchup advantage, Cleveland's 8 and 9 road record, and ongoing chemistry concerns. Essler added that Embiid's presence often slows pace, noting the 76ers have averaged four to five fewer possessions than normal recently, making the under appealing. The discussion continued with Denver at Dallas, where the Mavericks were favored by 1.5 after Denver's 122 to 116 win in New Orleans. Jamal Murray logged 37 minutes with 35 points and 9 assists, Peyton Watson played 39 minutes, and Tim Hardaway Jr. played 33 minutes, raising fatigue concerns without Nikola Jokic available. Both hosts leaned Dallas, with Manji noting Najee Marshall's recent 22 and 17 point outings and the opportunity for expanded roles. The episode closed with NFL news as Mike Tomlin stepped down after 19 seasons as Steelers head coach. Essler praised Tomlin for leaving on his own terms and dismissed narratives around forced departure, emphasizing his record of never having a losing season. Manji noted the rarity of the move, as Pittsburgh has had only four head coaches since 1969, and suggested Tomlin may take time away before returning. The show concluded with best bets, including Manji backing the Knicks minus 10.5 and their team total over 120.5, and Essler selecting Charlotte plus 3.5 against Tulsa, reinforcing the theme of disciplined, market based betting rather than chasing narratives.

Let's give out TWO awards this segment: Worst Family Feud Answer and Worst Analysis.

The NBA keeps talking about “two-way players” like it's a bonus skill instead of the bare minimum. That framing is broken - and this episode dismantles it. Jaylen Brown calls himself the best two-way player in the league. When you actually examine defense, availability, leadership, and impact, the claim holds up - and exposes why the MVP conversation is flawed. While other stars conserve energy, avoid defensive matchups, or miss games, Brown guards the best player, carries a short-handed Celtics roster, and still produces elite offense. This episode breaks down why defense and rebounding are inseparable, why availability is the real separator in awards races, and why the 65-game rule exists for a reason. Jokic's injury, Embiid's return, the Sixers' ceiling, Bucks trade realities, Westbrook's historical achievements, and the current Eastern and Western Conference playoff landscapes all get addressed through one lens: value is not reputation - it's impact. No sentimentality. No narrative protection. Just how winning actually works. 

The Sixers won in Madison Square Garden behind impressive games from VJ Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey. We talk about their performances, and the team with Embiid and Paul George rounding into form. We then discuss if the Sixers will make a move with their available draft picks to improve this year's team, restart the reclining seat conversation and answer some relationship advice questions about wedding rings and book clubs. Reserve your spot for Fly The Process New Orleans here: https://www.rightstorickysanchez.com/p/flyThe Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings SportsbookBecome a MortgageCS Ricky VIP at mortgagecs.com/rickyAnthony Degli Obizzi is the official Financial Planner of The Ricky, text RICKY to 484-471-4873 to set up a conversationSurfside Iced Tea and Vodka is the official canned cocktail of The Ricky. Gambling problem?

Welcome back to On The Ball with Ric Bucher on the United Wecast Network.In this episode, Ric dives deep into why calling Shai Gilgeous-Alexander a “free-throw merchant” is one of the dumbest narratives in the league right now — and how it's overshadowing a potentially historic season from both SGA and the 23–1 Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Philadelphia 76ers have so much promise in their backcourt while also have an albatross that is the Joel Embiid health situation that isn't helping this team. We've seen real good stuff from the Sixers this season, and not-so-good stuff. This week, Sean Barnard from Fox Sports Philly's The Gambler and Draft Kings joined us for a great discussion about what we've seen from this team, and where they may be heading here in mid-December.But first, the guys dove into some Eagles and NFL talk. They discussed the Eagles offensive narrative, and also talked about Philip Rivers coming back to the NFL for the Colts at the age of 44. (Approx. 5:05)From there, they got into a discussion about recent moves the Phillies have made: re-signing Kyle Schwarber and extending manager Rob Thomson until 2027. Plus, they reflected on a tweet from Buster Olney about players in the Steroid Era and how the MLB Hall Of Fame has handled that situation over the decades. (Approx. 27:05)Then they talked about whether the Sixers should look at brining Malik Beasley onto the team to help with 3-point shooting. (Approx. 41:05)What they threw down on the Table this week was a great and in-depth conversation with Sean Barnard from Fox Sports Philly's The Gambler about where this Sixers team is at as we enter mid-December. Is Nick Nurse giving Tyrese Maxey too many minutes per game? Can the team dig itself out of the 3rd quarter narrative? How has Paul George contributed when on the court?  All of this and much more this week on the Table!
