Two For The Money Page #3

"The action starts Saturday

with college ball

"and our first match-up

is Michigan against Indiana.

"The Wolverines... "

I already hung up.

John Anthony here ready to make

all your betting dreams come true.

That's right.

Call me right now and let me win for you.

The point spread

in the Indiana-Michigan game is at...

- I think it's all right.

- Wrong.

Mm-hm.

OK what's your sales pitch?

My sales pitch is I'm picking 80% winners.

Stats is not enough.

I'm telling you you need a voice.

These are gamblers ready to risk what

they can't afford for what they can't have.

You're selling

the world's rarest commodity.

You're selling certainty...

in an uncertain world.

John Anthony here

the million-dollar man.

Wall Street to Tokyo to Hollywood. All

your big money stays and plays with me.

Sit back and relax. It's a Scud attack this

weekend. I am shelling your bookmaker.

Follow his block and cut to the right.

Going in Liz. Going in.

That's it isn't it? Huh?

- It's a start.

- It's a start?

What can I tell you?

That's not what you want

then you need to find somebody else to sell

and let me just pick.

It's not about what I want.

You understand?

It's about what Brandon wants.

If I hear that I'm calling this number.

Whoa whoa whoa.

Easy easy. Easy easy.

What is it? What is it? What is it?

Shh.

Should I call somebody?

Not unless they got a spare heart.

Shh.

Oh it's a small one. It's a teeny one.

Breathe it out.

- What do you need? Some water?

- I'll be all right.

Oh I know what I want.

I know what I want.

Be a good boy and get me a light.

Right there.

What are you doing?

Courage wants to laugh.

He makes the snap,

looks right, he throws.

Phillips in for the touchdown!

...clearly in the defense

that does not give up the big plays.

...23 over West Virginia.

Pittsburgh on a 47-yard field goal

leads Virginia 10-7.

North Carolina and Florida are scoreless.

We'll be back with more scores...

Back to the one-yard line...

...and it will go against Utah again.

With time-out on the field,

let's go to our studios in New York

for an update on today's college football.

Brandon!

How we doing?

Down here.

...while Michigan

just put the hammer to Illinois. 44-12.

Florida - no problem

beating North Carolina 42 to 7,

while Northern Washington

upset Iowa State 28-21.

Pennsylvania

manhandled Kentucky 31 to 3.

Bullshit!

...with a 17-7 win at Idaho.

And thisjust in. Arizona is hot.

All right! All right!

This guy is a machine. I mean he...

All he does is work out and pick winners.

Talk about fit.

You should see him with his shirt off.

Really. I did. A serious side of beef.

Enjoy your daughter's birthday. Come on.

What do you mean?

You should check him out.

- I know you want to.

- Walter.

Get out of your head.

It's a bad neighborhood.

Touchdown!

I'm gonna have the bruchetta here

and this right here.

Very good.

And may I say sir an excellent choice.

I think it's pronounced "bruschetta. "

"Bruschetta. "

They're little pizzas

but they don't have cheese in them.

- Bruschetta?

- Perfect.

Who cares? Anyone who goes 20 for 24

college football 12 for 14 professional

call bruschetta anything you want son.

Ever have

a thousand-dollar bottle of wine?

- No.

- Steward!

- Walter it's a waste. He hardly drinks.

- It's a celebration. Steward.

- Walter it's...

- Toni come on.

Just 'cause he's with reformed drunks

doesn't mean he can't enjoy himself.

I was a lot of things Walter

I was never a drunk.

Actually truth be told

I've never had

a 12-dollar bottle of water either.

- He thinks we're fighting.

- Yeah.

No I don't. Look hey this is great

all of this. Thank you Walter Toni.

Watch out Walter. He's a fixer.

- I should've ordered two.

- What did the doctor say? Come on.

Well if you really want to know - I've been

meaning to tell you - I went yesterday

and he seemed very concerned.

Afterwards he sat me down

and looked into my eyes and he said:

"Walter...

"who do you like

in the Buffalo-Oakland game?"

- You tell him Buffalo?

- Sh*t Walter. It wasn't funny.

You didn't know I was joking?

It's a joke. Jokes are funny.

Wow what a meal.

You haven't touched your sauce.

It's chocolate. I hear it's good for you.

- I'm not raising a kid alone Walter.

- Come on don't be dramatic Toni.

In biblical times you'd just move in

with my brother Morty anyway.

Oh look at that.

Beauty and the beasts.

What do you think?

I like her man.

I think she's extremely cute.

Brandon she's looking at you.

Yeah but so are

those two guys she's with.

I tell you what. I'll bet you ten to one

on a thousand you can't pick her up.

That's 10000 cash

if you leave this restaurant with that girl.

I have a better idea. Why don't we go to

Atlantic City and open a house account?

You know you can't gamble. Come on.

Who's gambling? I haven't flipped a coin

since the '80s. This is just a challenge.

A challenge?

- Cash?

- Mm-hm.

What are you gonna do?

- I'm gonna introduce myself.

- Before...

Before you make your move sit.

- Where are you going?

- No problem. Don't worry.

You sit here and rest your little self.

Excuse me. I don't mean to interrupt

or anything but I just gotta know this.

We're sitting over there

with my friends and I'm thinking...

You are drop-dead gorgeous

and we just want to know...

Your dates look like they haven't

missed a meal since Christ died.

Seriously you're eating

like you got a date with the electric chair.

What is going on? No no no.

It's all over. Sit sit sit.

Just joking. Sorry.

- I don't want to get wounded with a fork.

- Jerk. Moron.

- I'm gone. Thank you very much.

- What the hell was that?

- I went too far.

- Oh yeah.

- I'll buy them a bottle of champagne.

- You'll pick up their check.

The voice of reason.

Thank you. Uh-oh.

Your date's going to the bathroom.

I don't think that

helped me out too much do you?

Well...

But hey thanks for the introduction.

Hey I was just raising the bar a little.

John Anthony could close her.

You are beautiful.

- Excuse me.

- Hang on a second.

I want to get to know you.

You just want to get in my pants.

No. No no no no no. I want to get

in your mind and your heart and your soul

and I don't see you

wearing any pants in that equation.

Do you?

Let me ask you something.

OK, forget the 900 numbers.

Now you're ready.

We're moving up.

We're going to the second floor.

This is where we print the money.

Put your ear to the door.

Wow.

That's the sound of possibilities.

This is it. This is where

the sales people turn a ten-dollar bettor

into a 1000-dollar bettor

before he knows he made the call.

I'm asking do they use

Astroturf or AstroPlay?

Tammy. Give it up baby.

- You know what I need.

- Sure do.

- Tammy this is Brandon.

- How are you Tammy?

OK this is our phone sheet.

The losers who need us.

The more they bet the more we win.

We take 10% of a winning bet

anywhere from 500 to 500000.
