Level 42 7 — 11 The Bobs
♡ Curse weather. One stat is going on a little vacation.
BROADCAST DETAILS
AURELIA “Lvl42 at Bobs. My model says— actually, my model resigned this afternoon. We proceed on vibes, under protest.”
HEX “I see two outs. I see fire. I see... concession prices. Grim. All of it grim.”
HEX “Ah. Curse. So the dream WAS about tonight. Interesting. Don't worry about which part.”
AURELIA “Your last three predictions were wrong.”
HEX “They haven't happened *yet*. There's a difference.”
AURELIA “There is genuinely not.”
AURELIA “Watch Small Bob-3000. The numbers like them. The numbers won't say why. “Loud Warning,” apparently.”
AURELIA “The Lvl42 section has settled on “GOLDEN CHAIN. GOLDEN CHAIN” for tonight's chant. Volume suggests conviction. Conviction suggests losses at the window.”
AURELIA “Demographic note on the Lvl42 section: The fanbase has not trusted weather since the early seasons. This is considered normal here.”
AURELIA “Bobs lead by one through 3. One-run games are where the books earn their edge and I earn my gray hair.”
AURELIA “Incident: Betting briefly paused due to atmospheric instability. I'll allow it. Not that anyone asked me.”
HEX “10–6, Bobs. I saw this score in the steam off my tea. I'd hoped it was the tea being dramatic.”
AURELIA “For continuity: it was Bobs by one at the last check. The delta speaks for itself. It won't stop speaking, actually.”
HEX “It ends 7–11, exactly as the dream showed me. Soul of the game: Exhausted Bob With A Knife, 6-for-7 with 1 home run. The dream also showed next week. No further comment.”
AURELIA “Margins held. Some didn't. Settling accordingly. Goodnight.”
HEX “Until the next vision. Goodnight.”
