THE DAILY TAX REPORT

Thursday, September 24 — NFL + WNBA

📒 THIS WEEK’S LEDGER

Official Plays: 1–1
Official Props: 0–2
Leans: 3–3

Wednesday got us back on track.

Milwaukee ML ✅ cashed the Official Play.
Atlanta Dream -2.5 ✅ rolled.
Cleveland ML ❌ lost 1–0.

Tonight, we’re keeping it selective again.

🏈 OFFICIAL PLAY

Atlanta Falcons +5.5 at Green Bay Packers

Atlanta has been atrocious through two weeks. There’s no reason to pretend otherwise.

But this is exactly where the number matters.

Michael Penix Jr. is back, and Atlanta finally gets another look at an offense that has far more talent at the skill positions than its early production suggests. Penix was a full participant this week coming off the knee injury.

Green Bay deserves to be favored at Lambeau, but asking the Packers to cover nearly a touchdown on a short week is different from simply asking them to win.

We’re buying Atlanta at its lowest point.

OFFICIAL PLAY: Atlanta Falcons +5.5

Play to: +4.5

If the market drops through +4, the value changes considerably.

🏀 WNBA LEAN

Golden State Valkyries -11.5 at Los Angeles Sparks

Golden State still has something meaningful to play for tonight.

A win secures the No. 2 seed, while a loss opens the door for Las Vegas to move ahead of them. Los Angeles has already been eliminated.

That makes the motivational edge pretty clear.

But 11.5 points is a big number, especially on the final night of the regular season, where rotations and late-game situations can get strange.

So we like the side without forcing it into Official status.

LEAN: Golden State Valkyries -11.5

🏈 COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Liberty at Coastal Carolina

PASS.

Liberty -2.5 isn't crazy, but this isn't the type of Thursday game where we're going to rush into a position because kickoff is approaching.

There will be significantly better college football opportunities this weekend.

⚾ MLB LATE SLATE

PASS.

Seattle, Atlanta and Los Angeles are all laying prices we don't need to pay.

Houston/Oakland has some intrigue, but not enough certainty to earn a spot on tonight's card.

We said earlier today that we wouldn't manufacture action from baseball, and we're sticking with it.

TONIGHT’S CARD

OFFICIAL PLAY: Atlanta Falcons +5.5
LEAN: Golden State Valkyries -11.5

PASS: Liberty/Coastal Carolina
PASS: MLB late slate

Two positions.

That’s it.

We don't need seven bets because seven games are available.

Find the value. Bet the number. Move on.
