Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL. Podcast challenges you to play Mark in tennis Chris Wrestling guest studio. It's around the NFL. I'm Dan Hansis got some heroes of the studio, Greg Rosen, Dolf, Mark Sessler. Mark, how is your tennis career going? You haven't heard much. You were dominant against children and your wife and where are we at now? That was a spot start. There's been very little action since. We have a a sort of a ramshackle tennis court up the street from where we live. Um, but it's under construction right now. The entire park that it's attached to under construction. So uh, the civic the civic angle of it has shut down my career. It's not my issue. I'm buried ascertain. Well. I've played multiple times this week with my son Walker, and I'm really training him with Mark and mine. I want to get him good enough to beat Mark. I feel he and now he's a regular listener of the podcast, which is a big change. He's a seven year old. He likes podcasts. He he just started listening about a week or two ago and he's very into it. And I don't know if it's going to change what I say on the podcast, but but just saying how to Sometimes we have adult topics. But one one topic he'll definitely appreciate is him destroying Mark and tennis and about angelist. Come find me on any court in Santa Monica, any court in Venice, any court in California. I love this. And now the provocateur and me is trying to think about how can we set up some type of live events against Gregg's by then eight year old son. That would be very excited. No peace here. This would be the war on the court. What do they call it? The that it's like a term like courts of I don't know. I think what it ultimately will be is like hillen Clay. It's like it's like a movie King Richard, except the end is just my son can beat Mark, not, you know, become transformative Grand Slam champions, the greatest that one apparently. Okay, Greg's always seen him as a Will Smith type. Um, all right, hey how about the Oscars? Okay, all right, so today is hump Day. Oh here we go. This is good or bad depends on your perspective on life. I think it's good. I think it's also good that Connor or is joining us today. Always good. I think it's good. This is our third show this week. It's our training camp. We're getting getting our reps in absolutely and Connor is going to join us for one of my favorite recurring Uh well, this is only the second one, but as of this afternoon, it will be a recurring segment in every summer team slogans around the NFL. And um, it's now tied flash Points in terms of its episodic quantity. How about let's circle back to that when Greg trying to sideswipe, I totally do. I think about it all the time, And I was thinking about the other thing with Greggy. He's brought up a couple of times, like the connection you and I have. Yeah, I think that's a subtle way to try to drive a wedge as well by kind of calling attention to it in some type of weird why are you always causing trouble? We're reading into it. I think it's mostly that your chairs face each other and mine kind of face the hallway. Um, but you're just often staring into each other's eyes. And I picked up on after a month and a half, everyone's happy to be together. I think we all are as a threesome, but your eyes when they meet this is a little more crackling. And the way that we used to sit when it was me here on the edge, Wes you and then Greg. That would often happen with Greg, and I do think there's something to what he's saying strategic. M Mark used to kind of stare at each other during the show too, so I do like staring at and yet again, yet again. Without getting into specifics. Before the show, Greg was explaining a conflict he found himself in with a shadow, and it's just like, maybe we need somebody for Greg to lock eyes with. I guess that is what I'm saying, so he could get away from these things that cause the drive divisions. I think it's healthy. Well, we'll just playing someone out, you Greg, plant someone out in the hallway outside of the Chris Westling podcast, just like staring stand there in a very creepy manner, all right, before we get to Mr Or let us get to the latest news, looking looking drawing in the engine. It's a matter how shut handle stick with fefty one second flat. Yes Joe Montana to Dwight Clark in NFC Title Game and yes on the call the great and now sadly late Vince Skull, you passed away on Tuesday at the age of ninety four. Talk to anybody that's worked in a booth, anybody that's grew up listening uh to this man call not just football games, especially baseball games, and really, um, all different kinds of sports throughout an incredible six decade plus career. He's the best to ever do it. So losing Vince Scully especially for people, and all three of us are transplants, um, but especially if you live in southern California, because Vince Scully was born in the Bronx same borrow in New York City, where my dad's from. But he quickly caught on with the Brooklyn Dodgers, made the move across country to l a and called every Dodger game. And this is impossible to wrap your head around, especially because football, by its nature is a different sport. Uh. For all this talk about you know, who's the three man booth here, Who's who's gonna mesh with this guy in this booth? How many millions of dollars Vince Scully for half a century sat in a booth at Dodger Stadium, solo and UM played music with stories and his voice and his folksy wisdom as you always here connected to him and to all the Dodgers fans and every baseball fans and sports fans. Yes, this was a tough loss. I listened to an incredible interview he had with Dan Patrick. It's it's from a long time ago, but they were playing it this morning, and UM, he talked about the fact that you know, would he fit in today if he came out of the blue today, I mean technically and from his voice angle and his ability to do it, Yes, But he was also just from a very special time. I mean the amount of like historical Dodger's knowledge. He he sat and announced Jackie Robinson way back in the day. And I think you're so right about the idea that even doing radio with two or three other people, UM, would be tough. But to narrate baseball games, and we're talking like a hundred and sixty of them plus a year, day after day with the storytelling ability, like there's no one else like him. And I'm just comfortable saying there will never be another Vince Scully. And we're lucky enough to I've been here for eighteen years. I have a lot of memories of just watching him do his do his work right when I when I up here the first time around, right out of college, I got super into the Dodgers because I was really into baseball at the time, and I just started watching every every game. And Vince Scully was the reason why. I mean, the mayor of the city said that, you know, his passing is the end of a chapter of the city's history, and I just I know there's important um broadcasters and what they mean to their local cities, but Scully and in l a Is is sort of unmatched. Our next next level. Rest in peace, Vince Scully, a life well lived. Let's get to the news. We mean as as much to Los Angeles, the three of us. Why would I ask that mean little early? It feels a little early. It was a good We did a nice button up. You're bringing in the irreverence, which is fine. That's what we do. The answers, No, but maybe in parts of Scotland. I don't know, little focus start somewhere, all right, Let's get to it, Tim Patrick, we talked about it on yesterday's show. The promising wide received ever of the Broncos was carted off the field after twisting his leg coming down from a crazy leaping catch that according to a dispatch from the practice from Robert Mazie of The Athletic And now we get the news that many were hoping would not we would not get, but it is what it is because he suffered a torn a c l in Tuesday's practice and you know that means his season is over. Greg. We touched on it yesterday, so I don't know how hard we have to go in, but he fit what Russell Wilson does well. And now the Broncos have to find another path, right. They really need Courtland Sutton to be Courtland Sutton this year, and I think it was kind of under the radar that he wasn't the guy he normally is. There was a thought maybe Patrick was the best receiver on this team, certainly last year, but but maybe even going into this year. So you need Sutton to show up. You need Jerry Judy to take that leap, and you would love to see kJ Hamler, who this week made some news being very open about um his mental health and how hard it's been for him coming back from a corn kny that that he was thinking of ending his life and he was happy to be back on the field and and now he he has a big role on this team. So just not quite as much depth, but just from a team perspective, don't think it's devastating. From Patrick's perspective, it's terrible, but it's a good thing. He did sign a long term contract last November with the Broncos, so he will be with them for a while. I think so much what they're gonna do is around Melvin Gordon in Chavante Williams too. I think they're very balanced, and it's I I'm leary when I here, and it's not you know, a constant drumbeat, but Broncos a f C title game, Broncos automatic twelve thirteen wins, I mean, a couple more injuries in their offense doesn't look so flashy, and on top of it, it's been a more of a name offense where you want. You like the potential of Jerry Judy of Courtland Sutton, of albert O of kJ Hamler, but they have yet to put together, don't have a quarterback before though. I change things, yes, and the Broncos, you can absolutely make a case of the Broncos being a big time team this season, but it's the a f C West and a few things go wrong, like you're saying, with any of these four teams and they very quickly because of this schedule and what awar it's going to be, uh inside that division, your season can fall off a cliff quickly. So it's a big loss. YEA Denver can survive this. And I must say, hey, less monitoring of Will Fuller, George Payton, more picking up the phone, calling me up and see if we can work out a deal, because that might be someone a guy, a burner, a guy that's a chunkyard guy, guy that's hungry, the guy that wants it client at the most appropriate time, which you've got the instincts for the true outside receiver. I think in a perfect world, Jerry Judy is moving inside and out a lot of the inbreaking routes um where Patrick was really just a pure outside guy, not the He's not the burner that that Fuller is. Certainly we don't think Will to be running a full compliment route. True, we don't need Matt Harmon doing the breakdown of reception perception on Will Fuller. I just need him to go deep and Russell Wilson, as we know from one of our producers, I'm not on Mount Rushmore, are very large Mount Rushmore producers. T D once said, Russell Wilson throws a sexy deepall go get it was right about that. In other news, the Cardinals are spending more money. Mark wanted to say something because of his relationship with TV, which is very hot and cold. I'm going to give you the floor. I did know. I wish t D well, it's been a while since we've spoken, but you know, I think that it was hot and cold. I kind of forgot about that. It was very digger. His relationships with the producer, Justin's probably already picking up on that. He would needle me in certain ways and I would respond, I mean, Justin is that excellent communicator and a hard worker, and so things are good. He wasn't afraid to kind of jumped in the frame and mix it up. What's up to these days he's doing. I know he's working with Lebron for a while. I don't know if that's still to the new gig, but he he is an executives for him. Another success story the Cardinals doing more business left tackle d J. Humphries assigned a three year sixties six point eight million dollar extension through. So the Cardinals mark get a deal done with Kyler, now they get another deal done with d J Humphries, the left tackle. This kind of came out of nowhere. I didn't there's there's not been any a hold in or like a lot of hoop law about DJ Humphries. They did say last week they wanted to get something done with him. I think for them it's a it's a nice story because he I viewed him early on as a kind of a draft bust, and then he went on to become more consistent. He's played sixteen seventeen starts three years in a row. I was the fourth best tackle from PF and and the rest of their line like is going to be in transition because Justin Peugh, Rodney Hudson, who wanted to retire, Will Hernandez, Kevin Calvin Beacham are all in their early thirties or one of them is twenty seven. I mean they're gonna have to make adjustments there. I this is the one guy that can count on. I guess if you've just gone and done this with Kyler Murray. You don't want to suddenly be looking for a left tackle. I'm not saying he's stellar, but he's who they have right now. It's good to be at tackle six, five, three or seven. You know, it's hard to like just become one of them, but if you can, you could be a guy as under the radar as DJ Humphries and you can get a sixty six point eight million dollars extension right like when he signed the last one, which I'm looking now, it was literally the last Rotor World post of him, was his last contract, which was a three year, forty five million dollar country I remember at the time it was like, Wow, D D. Humphrey Humphries is getting a forty five million dollar contract, and look at this, he's getting to the end of it and they're giving giving him another. I am publishing this very Wednesday, the top twenty five free agents of Little Look Ahead of not a great crop in general, but he would have probably made the top twenty five before this this news. There there are a couple of tackles out there, but not much interesting. You know, you'll send in the morning the rundown of the news suggesting what we should hit and we usually hit all of it. And you have a parenthetical open slammer question mark close parenthetical. Do you not like the contract? Well, it just seemed like, wow, sixty six point eight million for d J. Humphreys, not a guy people think of as a top ten tackle, but that's just hey, that's that. The money itself made it feel like, well, we should talk about any contract that big. Doesn't It feel like this is a team that needs to get off to a quick start to kind of bury some of the drama they opened with the Chiefs, the Raiders and the Rams. I don't love that good luck. I think, you know, I think the getting the collar deal done I think kind of chilled the drama out a little bit. I think by the time twelve hours later, seems like whatever, unless they go then it's gonna be going anyway. In other news, Tyrne Matthew, the Honey Badger. He is now with the Saints, practicing with the Saints. He had missed a week of camp uh to attend to a family matter. But now he joins a secondary in New Orleans that was already strong. And you know, Greg, we look at the Saints, so we've talked about their high ceiling and low floor, and you have a lot of questions about the offense, but the defense looks pretty damn good with honey Badger a cherry on top on paper. I believe that they believe they'll be the best defense in the league. That's sort of the expectations, and that that's hard to count on. And I think the safety position is interesting. Matthew. There were a lot of whispers of like what is going on here? So I thought it was just like worth putting it out there that that he's back, because him and Marcus May are maybe similar ish talents um in terms of what they do well. May is coming off of an injury, so I'm curious how they'll be used. I mean, the one thing is they Dennis Allen said we'll welcome back with open arms, and it was a personal matter, so I kind of it seems like the story is over. But I think the story and just he was he's a tried and tested veteran. They didn't need him there at the early part of camp. But you know, the one thing to your point, in like the reports of you, it's almost could have been a whisper yesterday that they they're saying that their second team secondary has been like destroying Andy Dalton in practice, that they are deep at the position, that there, that there is like I think it's the best secondary, and like the Ravens are up there potentially. But this they have a chance to, like in a pass happy league, have their defense control. Paul sent Adibo, their second year cornerback who had a nice rookie season as a starter, getting a lot a lot of pop. On paper, they might be the best defense in the league. Tom Down, I know you're excited. It's good. D I don't trust it though, defense. I never really trust defenses. Alright. Irv Smith Jr. The tight end of the Vikings, has thumb surgery. He's uncertain for week one, so keep an eye on that situation. He's a potentially big part of their offense under Kevin O'Connell, the new coach and play caller. And finally, Tom Brady is now forty five years old. And what the hell is this? This is the song turn this up in my headphones. Yeah, so I got a folder of old drops and this one was called Happy Birthday. Alright, crack it up, make up, I mean, crank get up. Was not the reaction I was looking for. I'm kind of into it, all right, so getting better? That was Tom Like, if Mark ends up in a cult in his sixties, I could I could imagine you guys all singing that together every morning. I have one called Happy Birthday. Now we're good. We're getting the birthday stop a good, good production work we have about the cult comment I made there, it's appropriate. I mean, I don't know what do we believe in birthdays? Or do you just essue all that business as you like? Every day in this cult is everyone's birthday because everyone is new every more every day we've come from your Tom Brady's forty five and uh, we don't have to dwell on this or whatever. Leonard Fournette, because you know, it's just passage of time. It's a thing we all know about it. Leonard Fournette sent a photo of a goat's head. He's the greatest of all time. And not only is he the greatest quarterback of all time, was a successful, decorated quarterback football player in the history of our league. He is still this needs to be remind everybody needs to be reminded. Maybe the best quarterback in the league right he was my choice for m v P. He is literally the first forty five year old starting quarterback in NFL history. Like that. I know he keeps saying that each and every year, that like he's the most productive forty two year old ever, he's the most productive forty three year old now, But now we've reached the point he's literally the first forty five year old starting quarterback in the history of professional football. And guess who's number two right now on that uh three free agents list. It's Tom Brady, Who's number one, Lamar, you know, just just because of the age. But like Tom Brady, unlike most of the top five to eight, I would say, has a realistic um chance I think of not playing for the Bucks and continuing to play football next year. Considering he was trying to do it this year. I we have to assume that there's a chance that he will take advantage of free agency and playoffs sort next. It's something that's on a board in Vegas. I would think the Dolphins right now would be like what three to one favorites? Really? You see now it's almost embarrassing to go play for the Dolphins. How did he not get punished for this? At all. That's a whole another thing. It's been involved in every every sort of problematic scenario with the league where they took away first round pick out. Everything connects back to the year old gun Slinger. I would say like retirement is more likely than returning to the Bucks, which is more likely than playing for another team. But I feel like there's like a decent chance he's playing for some random team next year. I can see that absolutely interesting. He called the shower. I don't even know who knows someone he I think he might enjoy being a free agents and it's yeah, I think so. And I also think it's a very veteran win now Bucks outfits, so things go sideways this season and they're not feeling are looking so hot. Yeah, I think he would want to again hand pick a spot that was He's also like the GM of the Bucks, though, so that's nice. I guess he indeed be that. Let's bring in Kyle Ruda. I don't want to and want to put this bad energy out there, but what if Zach Wilson, you're two, goes the same as Zack Wilson you're one, and they have a really good young roster. Otherwise the thing is that Tom Brady has said this verbally he hates the Jets. Please they all love money. I mean someone else, come come pay more. If Trey Lance bombs this year, there you go mm hmm. That's give him one year. You think they did? That was how they got Jimmy g They called up asking for Tom Brady and and Bill was like, no, but would you like they would probably be the Niners would Yeah, Titans put the Niners atop the board, the Dolphins, Titans with mike Y. Yeah, Titans were like reportedly in on the pursuit to Tennessee play in theory before. I want this all to keep bubbling up because otherwise this free agent list is kind of blocked. And for Spicy, we gotta get to love you, bro. You gotta get to Connor or So let's take a break and then hit team slogans. Welcome back joining us now? Is you know you want to talk about guest Mount Rushmore? Without a doubt, this man is on it, one of our favorites, former colleague and now a star over at Sports Illustrated The mm QB. You know who I'm talking about or you kidding me? Connors By what I know Connor I think was here while I was out over the summer first show, Is that right? That's right? We had we had some fun with Connor a few months back. I love that our our show is such a place in Connor's heart, and I'd be a little worried, frankly if I was his Sports Illustrated boss. That in the background is like a frame picture from one of our listeners, like showing what a key character he was when or you kidding me? Was really popping off in that in that vein. I got a bone to pick with you guys before we get started. Here we go, Um, so if you if you want like calling Wolf to come on the show, do you text Calling Wolf or do you have a producer? Text calling Wolf? We text Colling Wolf. Yeah, okay. If you want Kevin Patrick to come on, do you do you text Kevin Patrick? Or do you have a producer? We text Patrick? Yeah? All right? Yeah, So let's let's not let's not third party me neck time. So what you're saying is you don't like Graver. I'm just not one of your bookable guests. You know. I feel like I'm like a I'm a friend of the show, best friend of the show. In our defense, I did fly in a couple of days ago with Hey checking in on Connor. Hey, let's talk about the show that did come in from me personally. Does that mean that's fair? That's fair? You know, I just I just want to be treated the way that I deserved. VA tendencies to what you're saying, Connor. We if if the if the follow up text or contact with Connor also comes from Justin, you'll be talking about slogans with the boys. Will need ten to twenty of them, then I get it. But old Zeuser came in, Tugboat came into port and said, hey, let's chop it up. Let's maybe talk a little Orioles baseball. I didn't get any of that either, uh, and then he told me he was too busy to text. So to this this is there's two sides to this story. Unfortunately for you, um, well not unless I bring it up, I think. And for new listeners, the old Juicer and tug vote, they're they're not men of the sea that we just know. That's actually Dan conn Last summer, Um, we had a great time with you breaking down the teams of our league and team slogans that best fit where these organizations sit as they enter another year of football. We could not do this exercise without you, so we're very happy, uh to have you join us. So what we're gonna do here is spin through the league. Let's go alphabetical order and anybody has a slogan jump in. Okay, and Connor, of course you as well as our as an all time guest alphabetical city or we're gonna go alphabetical by city. I hope that doesn't mess with anyone. Okay, that's actually how I formatted mine, and I'm not me. I'm in the world of her, all right. Hanging there, Greg, let's get going, uh with the Arizona Cardinals. Connor, do you have anything for the cards? Yeah? I was thinking, you know, you have to You're gonna have to say it the right way, but something like get to class Arizona Cardinals. I like that. I like that, playing off the Kyler Murray issue. I have something similar claws out, so you have the clause of the cardinal but also the closetself. That is good, But on the promotional materials, I don't know how. Maybe you have the X through uh the U S E. And then just make a claign. I think that's it. I think some Cardinals fan out there should actually make that. I can't match it, but mine is, uh, it is our call of duty to win the Super Bowl Video Games. I'm realizing that I remembering last year that I maybe did not understand slogans as well as you guys. But here's mine, army disorganized in the desert. You would be too, if your bloodstream was utterly awashed with utopian forming peyote straight from the persist personal collection of Carlos Castanita. I think that Cardinals strike me as very same thing as last year, very disorganized. I just feel like trying to make a point after it. Let it say it's a slogan, disorganized in the desert question mark. The slogans should more or less stand on its own. Once you say it, everybody goes disorganize in the desert, large fund, and then there'd be some fun time. I've got some longer ones just as a changeup. But I don't know if I don't know if you want that as your all right? How about the Atlanta Falcons? Anybody? I have one, um, some things in life must simply be tolerated. Okay, see I I went with a similar one. This is actually a quote from Andy Warhol. Uh. He said, you need to let the little things that would ordinarily bore you suddenly thrill. You said, I like that, I like that. I decided I wanted to play off a very interesting press conference. Um by Dean P's the defensive coordinator. Let's play a little of that great digger. We're changing the culture around his day going place okay, and it's not gonna be mediocre's not gonna be average and not gonna be in the bottom half of the league like it's been fifteen out of the last twenty years. Sick of that crap. We gotta take charge and I ain't gonna be anybody else to do it but us. Okay, I'm tired everybody telling us how bad we are. After while, you start believing it, just like you tell you never tell your children and stuff like, hey, you guys, you don't you getting mad at the teacher says, you know, telling something kiddie stupid, right, You don't ever tell somebody that, because pretty soon they started believing that. Guys around here on defense sometimes believe is okay or whatever. One time out of the last twenty years about that Atlanta Falcons. Don't call our kids stupid? Alright, I'm glad we heard that. I'm not I do throw one in here. Um, just trying to change the subject almost if it. Yeah, the Falcons is uh, you know, honestly, it doesn't look great. But have you even heard about those sex robots? Oh? So it's more like a just change of subjects. Like the technology that's going on right now. It's crazy, it's crazy. How about the Baltimore Ravens, Greg, I know you have something for the Ravens, I absolutely do. We we all did our homework. I got multiple ones, but this one's this one's just simple. Oh you made Lamar mad, didn't you. Okay, the Lamar army is strong. With the Lamar is gonna be better because everyone's similarly would be just like Lamar is gonna you up what I have um. Edgar Allan Poe never watched a second of pro football, but we've chosen to co opt his poem, which he wrote in the middle of a brown liquor fuel depression in order to cook up our mascot. This is kind of like a damaged eck bit that he wasn't like that the that Poe wasn't really from there, and that the poem doesn't make sense also factual. But Poe was from Baltimore. I thought, I'm just claiming he was not a pro football fans. As far as I've gone with it, all right, you got one car, yeah, I got well I have to uh. The first one is uh, now, the least creepy team in the division. That's good, That's it, all right? And then just stunningly competent. Well, I think that puts a bow on How about the Buffalo Bills? This one is uh. I'll just throw it out there. What possibly could go wrong? I have something? I have Mine is run the same party line here. When literally everyone assumes your barn storming into the super Bowl, it's bound to happen without a single hiccup. See. This is the only problem with this is people want to be like repeating these slogans over and over all years. Shorter ones would be like in the locker room on the wall that you tap when you go in. You wanted to be on the media guy, My mine was the exact same as Dan, but with a preamble just super Bowl or bust? What could go wrong. Connor. Uh, it's too similar to to even verbalize. Um, Carolina Panthers, um my body, my rules. I like it. I don't know what it means, but I love it. We're gonna fire everybody, how about I mean, this is your team, Connor. You know, keep pounding is one of the most successful team slogans of the last Give us one, not to put you on the spot, give us one please. Well, that that was what I had written down, is we're going to fire everybody. No, no, no, give us give us a key pounding just yeah, absolutely. I like there's a large segment of our listeners that do not like that. That's why it needed to keep coming back. Um picture again the media guide and it's Baker Mayfield and Sam Donald back to back, arms crossed, looking at the camera in a fierce manner. Imagine it was though Chicago Bears the one I had something for this. It's similar in vantage, like changing the subject, make a weekend of it, and then um, you just have like Wrigley Field architecture, tour, nightlife, the hot dogs, the mirror sculpture thing. Just kind of play that up more. I'm not topping that one with what I had, so I am a guy said, I think you've nailed that. That's strong. I just realized they forgot about the entire NFC North. But hey, if you want an alphabetical order by city, you would not have done that. Got one, Connor, Uh, just Robert Quinn. That's our best player. That's not bad. Um. This one weirdly stumped me. So if someone could step up with the Cincinnati Bengals, I have, UM, this definitely won't go to our heads. It's actually that's one. I just I think it's good to bring enthusiasm sometimes. So just like Joe and Joe and Chase and t raw all right, I like that about you. Connor. I have enjoyed while you can this expensive another that's great? Well, another one, because I think you could just Yeah, this is something I think Mike Brown might actually do. It's just like win one for Mike Brown. I like how you can, based on what our slogans are, you can guess collectively what we think their team records to be. That's sound like nine and eight breakdown. My first one was more of a thirteen and four, just like we're partying all right, Cleveland. Brown's Connor Earth the wild Brown's fan yourself. At this point, where are we at? No, it's over. We've we've shipped out all the merchandise. H we replaced. Um. One of my kids said, a Brown's bear. Uh, And it was actually very cool. Um. One of my colleagues stepped up and said, because I said I'm getting I'm throwing this stuff out. I don't want it in my house anymore. And one of my colleagues said, okay, I'll send her a bear of a team that she can absolutely root for. So now we only were exclusively rooting for the US women's national soccer team. That's what our that's what our house does. That's quality. So you're just out on rooting for a football team. This reminds me of something I've meant to bring up on the podcast multiple times. I think it's a good spot for it's a little off topic. The Football Outsiders Almanac this year brought up Mark Sessler by name in in context of all the fans leaving the Browns, and they said, like, the most notable name, Mark Sessler of NFL, who's the author in the right up, I mean, how about that guy? Who is that guy? Rivers going to send him like a barrel of wine. But you are basically the symbol. And I guess Connor you your your Brown's love was not quite as intense as Mark, but now you're along with not quite not. The reason why Mark is in that right up is because, hey, stay Stu Gott's Mark is a very public figure in the football realm at this point, and nobody had the passion for the Browns that Mark did. So I'm totally signing off on football. That's just good work by the outsiders. I appreciate that the symbol of people jumping ship. I'm looking for the exact you know, right up, but that you would you know, there's a lot of Browns fans in Cleveland that basically hate anyone that did that. There's I hear about it all the time on Twitter and to get that's happened, that would be happening any fan base. Before we get to this, and I don't want to get too far afield, but we talked about and very you know, notably Ian was on the show. We talked about the insiders and various how the story was reported. You know, all the reporters on Twitter that are like sending out photos of Deshaun Watson posing with children and signing footballs and like quotes like we love you de Shaun and all the stuff like. That's that's similar to me that what you were talking about, Greg, like and I know now the money is not involved and you're not doing the quote unquote work of the agent. I think that to me was notable. But it's also you know, it's a gray area morally, I think because of what's going on, and also can be seen as doing a favor for that agent, who a lot of these reporters have very close relationship Mark does not. And this is the right up. The Browns have heard and lost many fans because of this trade. NFL dot COM's Mark Sessler perhaps the most prominent and public about it. Well, I think part of it slogan now have to say that that's the right up in my favorite football preview of the year, and I've never been mentioned in it, and there you are bringing up like I I I think that would work as a slogan, uh sort of all right. My slogan though, is you know a little more to the point, just what what oh whatever? You would have done it too? Well. There were other teams that did want to do it? Got one Connor I went with because the area code they call themselves the two one six. Uh, so I I said the two one sick of fants? Mark, don't think that my popular strange conn. I have his zip code in mine um and it goes like this, come on down to our Satanic black Mass this Saturday evening PM at dark Forest Court, Circleville, Ohio. Was zip code for I can't beat that. Let's move forward, Uh, Dallas Cowboys, you know, I think this is playingoff again. The exercise to me is what is the team want to put out there? What is the vibe that they want to kind of reinforce ahead of the season. They're very sense of about this Mike McCarthy situation at Sean Payton. And you know my feelings about Mike McCarthy. Zaddy ain't going nowhere because he lost wait. I don't know if you heard in his introductory press conference his workout routine was a topic of conversation that he lost a lot of weight. He's fitter, uh and he even like would think of the media sometime while he was in his workout for motivations. He was kind of taking some jobs here, but he's looking like a real Zaddi. Meanwhile, Andy Reid is grinding film there. Don't be don't be used the Zaddie like that, don't do don't do that. Anybody else got one for the Cowboys? I have just based off that vibe, Dallas Cowboys. It's us versus the guy she told you not to worry about anybody else. All right, let's move to the Denver Broncos. I have a very dumb one. Are you coming up with a bunch of these? And some of them just like this is a clunker, but I could see it um attracting a certain type of person. You're going off the head coach's last name. The team shouts out, we can hack it? Can you hack it? And then the fans the fans say back, yes, I will Son like Wilson, but will com a son like You're like you're speaking to a child. Maybe the team up shake with attitude like Mark. It's also incredibly for That was the social clip, right there was Mark doing I love that. I think that was really good. I'm gonna come up with one that that I think just it works. It's got a certain ring to it. Let's ride. I think they they've got their slogan. Yeah, mine's like, embrace the cringe. It's gonna be super cringing this year. Russell Wilson's gonna do a bunch of corny stuff, but he's also gonna win you a bunch of games. How about you, Connor? I was it's saying, like, you know Javonte some more or something like that, you know, as work shopping a little bit. Yeah, I'm gonna yeah. I was just kind of hoping you wouldn't call me for that one. Go with the guy who's like in a split backfield, the Detroit Lions. I have. Well, aren't you so original for picking us as your final wild card team in the NFC? It's perfect. This is what happens. It's like the off season is too long, and now we're pushing against the things that we all kind of like, I'm just getting ahead of that, right, You're right. I have faster Pussycat Kill Kill, which is a film title, but they are like cats in a way, and I think they want to be aggressive and win on both sides of the line. I like that. How about you, Connor, We're gonna suck at full speed. Speaking of the lines, they are the Hard Knocks team and around the NFL podcast has a big Hard Knocks announcement coming up on Monday. That's a tease. That's an industry piece. Leave it at that. This is my I'm in my NFC north black right right, right right, all right? Uh, Connor, what do you got for the Green Bay Packers? Uh, I'm gonna pass on this one because I had a long list of troubling um sort of vaccine related jokes that that I was work shopping last year, and so I'm just gonna I'm gonna let that one. I'm as much like, it's not like, it's not like our feelings on the matter of change, but just the vaccine jokes not popping as much, not as timely, not coming in at ninety seven on the corner anymore, how about you. This was also halfway workshopped um. It says, among other things, we've convinced humans from the Midwest to wear massive pieces of cheese on their heads. It shows the power of the pack internal power in Wisconsin and the surrounding territories. For me, well, guess what timeout tug about? Time out? I'm not talking about the packers in this exercise. They don't talk about the time out. Remember that Houston Texas. I don't have anything for the Houston Texas Texas they went. I went with just try and find where we buried David Culley. Seriously, what happened to that guy? An actual challenge were challenged you to find the body. You could be doing a thing where like you don't get another job, so you'd keep the pay you got from the Houston Texas. Because at least with the with the ball boys, with the flake Gate, the Patriots at least said, hey, we buried those guys under the mass Pike, so you knew it was that thoroughfare. And it's still that's a very large roadway. But at least you had a general idea where they buried those bodies. After the murders, we don't know where David Culley know those two boys are findable. They're dead, Cully is it's it's it's undetective. How about even seven winds would feel amazing, like scept the bar fairly, because it's true, if they won seven games, it would feel like everything is amazing in Houston, like everything about Watson is gone. I have um a raffle copter just crashed onto our lawn. What's a rolling on the floor laughing copter. I didn't know that was the thing. Capital capital r o f L Copter. It's like a like it's super funny. Now this isn't This isn't a callback to the rosen Copter Sage rosen Fells his famous play as a member of the Houston Texans where he spun in the air and fumbled the ball. But that's that's uh, Indianapolis cults this one, I think again, playing into what they want you to remember and what you want to think about at all times now with one percent less wentz m M. That's good. How about it? Similarly like chugging ice cold Maddie ice and forget those student loans. Strange. It's like left football this season, forget about forget about all that I have good but not great Part seven. Yeah that's about right. Am. I allowed to swear on this last year, but let it rip, buddy, alright, So I have you guys reopened Napolie Pizza? Yes, thank you, Connor. Napoli's Pizza was the gem of Combine Week that Connor had discovered it years earlier, and it became a tradition for around the NFL. We would all go together. We'd have these specialty pies in the wood, uh, you know, brick oven pizza. We'd have some wine, some Tito's, and we'd be flying. I think we got to come to it's COVID's fault, though. I think I got wiped by COVID. I believe Napolie I UM. I was working on a story for the magazine and I ran across another player who was born in Indianapolis in the team facility that I was at, and um he we were talking about Indianapolis with such depth that he goes, oh, were you born there? He's like like where were you? And I was like, don't know. I I just have a lot of takes. But Napolis really took up the majority of our conversation. This player was also very very upset. I remember that like one week where the entire NFL media acted like Indianapolis was Paris in the forties and like made sure that combine didn't move. That was weird Paris, No, how could we ever move on from Indianapolis. I'm gonna say Paris in the that was the terrible I really meant, I really meant yeah, Actually that was I think there was a Nazi at one point. That was That was the worst historical reference I've ever made. All right, I was singing more like Bella Poc. You know, I got you. We all know where you're attempting to go with it, the Jacksonville's Jaguars. Mark uh. If fourteen times you don't succeed, try try again, Connor, I have a rut and shoot more like press and coot press Taylor, Okay, and I forgot he's there to we to bleep that out to Taylor. I can't that. I don't beat that, but I'm gonna go with We drafted the last two number one overall picks. The other thirty one teams didn't draft any zero for the other thirty two. That's factual. That's just facts. The Kansas City Chiefs, Now, this one's a little weird because I don't know how they're gonna promote this. But I have a gift for the Chiefs connected to you know, they're missing Tyreek Hill. Honey Badger is gone. I still think about that second half of the a f C title game like all the time and what happened to the team. So here it is in gift form. This is the slogan of the team. Yes, my favorite movie, right Frank Dreban, Lieutenant Frank Drebban from Naked Gun. Nothing to see here, trying to wave off people away from the exploding fireworks factory. Everything's fine, We'll be thirteen and four, SENI in January. That's that's what we're trying to get a across, even though I don't think that's true, right you. Using this clip also indicates where you're at with the chiefs. I'm not with you. I'm not with the I have something that they could spin off of what you've said. Um again, clunky, I'm not happy with some of these. But no, Tyreek, don't freak, will peak not Reek like that. It's the same thing in a different, different, different delivery, lesser angle. Nothing how about you Connor Just you know, I this is less of a phrase and just more of an observation. But it is the team of sportswriters who are going to wait until and say nothing when they start like oh and three, and then when they're seven and three, just be like. I want to hear from everybody who said Pedro Holmes wasn't good after I remember that last year, and I was like, you know what, they were bad for a while because teams learned how to stop our pos. Like they were bad for a little while, and they don't have a running game. We could point that out. You know, I'm thinking of like one person in particular that I want to know. I want to know who it was. This was a good take. It wasn't a slogan at all, but I liked it. All right, let's take a quick break and then finish it off. All right, we're back, we are we left off with the Chiefs. How about Las Vegas? The Las Vegas Raiders? Greggy, what do you got? Davante Adams left Aaron Rodgers for us? That's good capital of I mean, what else do you need to hear to be excited about the Raiders? How about you? Connor? The Hooters that used to be here has changed locations? Did they have the Hooters at Allegiance Stadium? They used to employ they used to employ the Hooters spokesperson. Very good? How about you? Mark? I have nobody believes in US saved for the seventies seven percent of football scribes who claim we have an excellent chance to make the postseason. Yeah, I got jackpot Ellipses. Maybe I can't believe Brett Musburger is not the play by play guy anymore he's getting Maybe he just needed that that extra cash towards the end. All right, the Los Angeles Charger. I don't mean it's say it that way, but I mean time saying the end of pace run with the team. I got l A Chargers. Okay, but this time for real? How about we we drafted Justin Herbert and Rayson Slater and back to back years. Are you kidding me? I mean that's pretty good. All pros. You know, that's good. It's good, but now we need results. I don't have them for the same connor not going Staley. That's better. That's good. Los Angeles Rams, Mark, I know you got something that I do. Um, We've got a quip, but I'll read it first. See, there's no question the L A Rams are right for you. The question is are you right for the L A Rams? Which I kind of think it is their vibe because they're kind of like, we don't really we're good. We go do things our own way. But this is based off of very um ponderous commercial from See there's no question grape nuts is right for you? Question is are you right for grape nuts? Remember that serial idea? What that has to do with the Rams? But I like that was a that was kind of a gen X pop culture callback. Even Boomer Yeah, that's uh. I remembered it as a child that this guy like his wandering to the wilderness trying to tell you that he's basically better than you. Because of the serial heat, I don't think the Rams are not saying They're just saying we're good. It's a pretty compelling food product slogan, be like, you're good enough for us? Um, what do you have? Connor? At some point, it's going to really suck to work here? Why what is that? I mean, this team is gonna I mean in two years, this team is gonna be really bad when Matt Stafford leaves and Jalen Ramsey can't cover anybody and Sean McVeigh quits to make eighty five million dollars a year calling him when they leaves. Sure, but people have been saying that this thing is gonna for five years and they're the most consistently successful team in the year. And Stafford and Ramsey are and old it's gonna really like in four years. Ye, so you're gonna say six season. But you know what if that means that you know they have they already have the Lombardi and they're they're going to have a few more years of the window open. I would sign up for that as a fan. Yeah, I think they should go with something more like repeating as champions totally easy, because Connor, I don't think that slogan is getting past team walls. The one that you've suggested, well, there's been a few like that that's neither will this one. We exist the drive Mark Sesler crazy, I don't have this animal. I think last year what they accomplished kind of it's like, all right, you wouldn't did it, which before they did anything. Here's an important one because obviously this organization's in Sports Illustrated and many other publications for very bad things right now. So they need a kick ass slogan to change the narrative. Connor, what do you have for the Dolphins? That's sort of a version of the same thing. So I was just saying, like, wait, you thought we were serious or or I was just messing with you guys, you know, something like that. Yeah, yeah. I don't think you want to bring attention to it. I think you just go the teal is gonna make you squeal. Oh, it's good, it's good. You gotta pipe in the axe. That's important. Mark. I don't think mine is appropriate. Well that now we really need to hear it. It's it just seems off tone based on how you interrode the Dolphins. But I just said, la la, not the owner alert Minnesota Vikings I have now with a less chance of a head coach on quarterback homicide. Just that's a positive that it's definitely good. Anybody else I have the Vikings originated from an area that became modern day Scandinavia, that we're gonna act like they evolved from central Minnesota, and you're going to play along with it. M that's gonna be a tough one to sell, but it's good to give them options. Connor, I went with Vikings comfortably numb. That's that's good. How about you, Greg NFC North, I'm just I'm just um not doing it. That's crop that division. I thought maybe you had scrambled and got something that's all right. The Patriots, all right, I know you got the Patriots Greggy, I do. Uh, Mac Jones is perfect. Can you believe it? All right? I mean it just fell right into their laps. Well, we'll see, we'll see, how about you, Greg Mark, I do not have the one thing I noticed about doing this in alpbetical order that my selection started to slim and disappear as we got down on the list. Fewer and fewer. We're getting work ethic fatigue. But that's okay, how about you? Connor Um I I did. We're getting back to spy game. They've got kind of the seedy situation where no coach has a title or anything. Like they're they're getting the old They're getting the old black Ops team back together. We're doing some shady stuff. Baby. I think I think they need it. I you know, I just spent a couple of weeks at the Jersey shore, and you know you see that it's like the big beefy boy on the on the beach, like building the sand castle and the fort in front of the sand. He's like a large boy, like he's a he's an i'll say, heavy set boy. Sure, I don't want to be I mean, but now picture Matt Patricia's head photoshopped on the boy with Big Matt's got the shovel in the sandbox now, but it's a sandbox and not a beach, so we're we're work shopping it. I like it. I think it's it's kind of a pr strategy, almost lean into what people are negative about you. You know, it's like change the narrative. Mats actually our strength. He's calling the plays, right, he looks like he's the Pike calls. They just can't give him the title because he won't get that Lions money. All right. How about the Saints Connor? Uh huh? Maybe our old coach was kind of a jerk. Anybody I've got too many. Um, it's a mouthful. But don't worry that defensive d v o A is not as consistent annually as offensive d v o A. We're different. I have n SFW not safe for work. This team, to me gives me that vibe. Anything can happen with him. Um. I am attracted to them in many ways that I wouldn't. I was not in previous years, and I kind of like all the change and to see how they operate in the NFC South, which they can win. I'm tempering it a little bit with if four things go exactly right, we'll see you in the NFC title game. That's good. I had another option, which was we brought it. We kept every person Sean Payton has ever hired, and we broadened his son, so it's like he never left. Right, how about the Giants. We'll be better than the Jets, just like, really bring that rivalry up, you know, just like there's not much heat to the rivalry right now. Connor, I'm I'm stealing this from my podcast co host, but I feel like it's like a nice cross pod thing here where we can say, like, hey, listen to the mm qbat podcast. Yeah, no problem, but we're gonna go with Abraca Daniel. Wait, and who is your co host? That changed that that it came up with this? That was that was Gary Grambling. That was I believe in Adventure Time reference. Al Right, you got one more I do for the Jets are next team? Okay, go ahead. Well last year I guess I went with um, once you go, Zack, you never go back. But I'm switching it up this time too. If this doesn't work, we just resort to cannibalism, right, potentially, what about you, Greg uh this year will wait longer before ruining Dan's optimism. I'll take it. That's that's a positive. Connor former beat Jets, beat and I went with choosy moms, choose Jets. Um, I got a very a very impressive picture of Zach the beefy boy becomes a thick man. M I like the Eagles. Oh, go ahead, what you got? I was there the day that Robert Sala called him thick with a C. Yeah. How did that go? What was the vibe in the room in that momentous moment in football history? Um, I think we all felt it, you know. Uh, there was definitely an anticipation to then see the thickness. I do well. I I respect your football acumen. What do you think about my Jets? Is your Connor? I think that they're They're a lot younger than people still believe they are kind of light. Ever be allowed on the show again if I say anything negative in August about the Jets. I think if they win seven games, it's a tremendous leap. And uh, I would keep Robert Saul if they did that, because I think that would be a really spectacular thing. I think people don't realize how bad that roster was two years ago. It was it was really bad. Uh yeah, I don't think that that could be definitely a signed a success, but it does go back to the beefy thick boy. How about the Eagles hurt so good? Okay, I actually could see that. That is one where Yeah, it's it's simple, it's it's concerning because I had I had in my mind almost the same exact thing and decided that feels like maybe you already U is a slogan for them. It's sort of a cliche, right, how about you, Connor? I just I was gonna do like a big billboard with just a very close picture of Howie Roseman's face the GM and just say like Howie mother, you know, like he's he's he's so good, Like he's just he's playing three D chess with everybody. He got out of that that side building that they put him in for one year with Chip and he is on fire. We're giving Graver a lot of work here with the swearing. Yeah, sorry about that. The Pittsburgh Steelers, how about um Acquis Short Stadium? Why did we do that? So they're calling attention to that interesting strategy. But maybe we'll work so new newly regular listener Walker Rosenthal was watching me put this together the other evening and he came up with the Steelers that he wanted to come up with one um, and it was just the Steelers are gonna steal the ball. That's okay, Walk, I'll throw that in there. That's a workshop. I like, he's getting going, he's getting his feet wet. He knows how his age audience would would think something to think. I think his age would like that one. Uh anybody else on the Steelers, Yeah, I mean as tough as that one is to follow. Um, I was gonna was gonna say, Mitch is brew os Well he's on the bench. Ye, nobody has a Mason Rudolph based on his scintillating camp so far. Yeah, Mitch's brew would be a good podcast title, like if if he has a big game, we gotta remember that truth. How about the forty nine ers? Connor? Um I can I I can just co opt my RAMS one, which is at some point, uh much sooner than the Rams. It's gonna really suck to work here. Wow. See I like your take on this because everyone basically views McVeigh and Shanahan is infallible, but you feel will that fouls are coming. It's going to be very okay. So yeah, this is this is the reason. I think. So every time Sean McVeigh loses someone like someone is running to fill that vacancy. Every time Kyle Shannon loses a coach, who's running to fill those vacancies? Like who's who's tripping over themselves to uh to get into that building? Right now? I don't think. I don't think very many and smelling some under the radar reporting being done and I like it. I like it, we see it. Anybody else got Niners Seahawks? I have this one built, you know, one thing. And we've talked on this podcast a lot about Geno Smith and this big stage for him. But I don't think enough has been made about now that we now we have a potential starting quarterback in the NFL and a head coach or also the league's two leading conspiracy theorists. I think there's something there from a promotional aspect. So I got Earth's flatten jet fuel, don't melt steam, steel beams? Mine is Gino asked to um, happily catering to Greg's dens and slightly confusing Gino fetish at the expense of an entire fan base. I'm going with that whole New Yorker story about the earthquake destroying the Pacific Northwest hasn't come true yet, So let's have some fun out there. Interesting, interesting, interesting. Uh, Connor, I don't have them, but I'm just enjoying like Pete Carroll showing the entire team loose change on YouTube, and uh, it's just, uh, it's a really fun visual for me. How about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Connor, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, We're kicking the can down the road. It's like Connor hates teams that don't have like like seventeen year long building plans. They're they're doing fine. They're a favorite. I didn't really have one here nothing. For some reason. To come up with one. My thought was like, we're gonna we're going to massively bite the minute Tom Brady exit stage left. Yeah, well that's most likely the way it's gonna play. How about the Tennessee Titans, Grave Digger, Why don't you jump in on this one? All right, I've got the Titans, remember us, that's pretty good. Remember Remember the people are overlooking yeah, playing into the Titans fan base inferiority complex writing the number one see please all right? I like that mine mine is the Titans are cool, the Titans are fresh. T I t a n say it from your chest. I can't. I can't stand by that one. I don't know what it was, where it came from in your mind. I gotta I think, just like every once in a while, you just gotta have like really overly charting cheers. Yeah right, yeah, okay, So like you said, picture the media guide, um, and then this is kind of going to be sort of the main headline Tennessee Titans. Last year, Connor Ore sat in Sports Illustrati that you'd be looking for a quarterback and all your idiot fans tweeted him saying he was wrong, and look who's wrong? Now you're all idiots. That was going to be the kind of the slogan. You know what? And I think you want do you want to answer that, great digger as a fan? Hey, uh, Ryan Tannehill is back this year. Technically you were wrong, So technically draft Milik Willis. So I guess they did look Finally, last and perhaps least, uh, the Washington Commanders I have go back to whence you came about you, Connor, I was just gonna say, like, your your classic old lovable Commanders um. And the reason that I say that is because they they seem to have been acting now like they're just pretending they've been the Commanders for the last thirty years now that they've rebranded, and they're just like, oh, yeah, no, this is all like yeah, they have throwback uniforms, even though it's their first year in this new uniform with this new team, and I just love the you know, just the complete ignorance of the past, and it's just like, yeah, no, no, we've trying to red the entire experience. Very confused. It is confusing when it's like, yeah, I remember when when the Hogs were going to the Super Bowl with the Commanders back in the day. That was awesome. I think we're kind of overlooking the most obvious slogan on the board here it is now it's time to all come together and begin to take command. As we all know. I decided to really go ahead and start to take command. Yeah, they already basically, And it's funny because I had a similar thought that we we already have it it's right at the tips of our fingertips here. It is a lot of commanders in Washington, d C. And the Pentagon. That's good these facts. What is it called when, um, you you bring your yacht back to shore? What is that called? I wish I knew, because if I knew docking, there would be a whole other boring boring. But I like where you're going, you know what I mean, Like it could be like let's dock it, like let's you know, like all right back to port. That's pretty good. That's pretty good. Um, all right, there you go again. Those are all pro bono. Uh, that's pro bono work from us. If any team wants to lift it, I would say, attribute us, you know, let let people know where it came from. But we're not. We don't have our hands out at least I'll speak for myself. I don't know. I'm with you on that stance. And um Connor, you've said it all, you've done it all. Anything to anything to plug of course, you have your mm qb uh podcast. What else? Well, I would say, August the football preview issue comes out, like you know, let's go out, let's go to the news stand. I do this every month, even though I get a copy at my house, Like go out to the grocery store and I buy it. You know, you should, you should do this. You should go out and buy it because you know what, it's a great it's a great issue. It's a lot of really good stories in there. And you don't need to enter your email address, you don't need to give anybody any credit card information. It's just you can. You can take it anywhere. You can take it to the beach. You got you got a rock or full of all star still you got Greg Bishop, one of the best in the game. You're cranking them out. What kind of story did you cover in this or what was something that would be notable if you did uh there there there there might be some or on the cover. So that's what we're talking about. So let's uh, you know, I'm just saying it would be wild if it was actually or on the cover, like just you, that would be amazing. And it's this, it's a screen grab from this. It's like it's like or are you kidding me? Like like SI dot com Rod writer is not taking any guff do you connor do you s I? They have the regional covers now right, is there national cover as well? How does that break down? We are, um, so this one will be really cool. I don't know. I don't know how much I'm allowed to I don't know how much I'm allowed to say. But it's going to it's gonna be a national cover. Um, and it's gonna but it's gonna be cool. There's a cool element to it. And that's all I can allude to. So it's it's very it's it's very very fun, very cool. You've sold me. I'm going mine. Yes. Back in the back in the day, Dr Z would have his Super Bowl picks on the cover. Who is does anyone take that space or that that role? Now? Is maybe you? We we UM we workshop it. So we have all of our NFL raiders and editors and um head editors in a text group and then they say, all right, here's you know, five or six potential ones there, um, and we will fight about it and then we will come to sort of um will kind of come to an agreeable conclusion something we can all live with at the end. And finally, I just noticed, in addition to a T shirt that a fan had made connected to our podcast. You have the my not um Frisbee um hanging on the wall prominently as well. My not, of course, was the city in North Dakota. I believe that was your site for your Madden or something, some type of simulation, video game, simulation franchise.

So, um, that's how far out I am on on everything. But I still thought rosters anymore. Well, I would say this, I would say it's coming. Uh, it's in the works, but probably not in the foreseeable future. I mean, but the question hasn't changed. Why not my not? You know you still have a key to the city. I still haven't gotten it.

My Not has a Wikipedia page, and yet there's no section of it dedicated to Connor and this podcast. That must be adjusted. And we know how Wikipedia works. Wink wink, nudge nudge.
