0:49.0	Yeah, I woke up in the middle of the night and went, wait, that's starting up soon and flipped it on.
0:54.3	Fell back asleep. I will. Yeah. You know, and then flipped it on later and watched it with my kids.
0:58.6	My wife came through and said, is this the new sports for you? I was like it's kind of, it is, man. Yeah, you're a diehard. I mean, you've been right on top of it. Now, before we get

2:01.7	All we're doing is conjecture, right?
