Thank you. Ben, welcome back to another show.

Cody, how you doing today?

I'm doing well today.

I feel, you know, I'm in touch with my younger self because it's homecoming week at my school

and it was dressed as a younger, younger version of of yourself so I got to whip out my Jordan shorts that went

below the knee. It's been a while since I've worn below the knee shorts.

I got a Michael Flowers jersey from when he played with the Wisconsin Badgers in the in the mid 2000s on so I feel I feel I feel younger but I feel a good 16 years

younger right now this is exciting this is very exciting I mean it's a good segue as well

because 16 years ago was 2007 and I feel like I have

spent a good amount of the summer watching basketball from the 2000s for the offensive legend series that were running on YouTube.

And of course the latest episode was on Dirk Nivitzki.

And you know I always have to cut stuff for time. You know what I mean?

It's very it's very frustrating. Have we talked about this before?

I mean I think that's a that's a tough thing in general like when you create something

There's so much information you want to put out there, but you know, there's a thing called editing.

And at a certain point, you can't just give somebody like a three hour product.

So, yeah, a lot ends up on the cutting room floor, I get that.

Yeah, yeah. So one of the big sections I don't know if we'll we'll do an extra on it or

something but there was a section that I ended up cutting out on a few of these games I found in the middle of the 2000s your Michael Flowers

heyday years where Dirk was totally dictating the matchups of the game to like start the game the other coach would go now wait a second we can't have Tim Duncan guarding you okay so we're to have Bruce Bowen guarding you.

We think that's more advantageous.

And that does these really weird things
