Oh my goodness, good morning, good afternoon, whatever it is for you, I hope you're having a fantastic day.

My name is Zach Schomler.

This is Strong Opinion Sports.

Episode 34022 welcome in a couple minutes ago I finished

interviewing a very very special guest Ryan Leif a guy who in case somehow you don't know who he is, he's a former NFL quarterback,

he was drafted, number two in the NFL draft, literally right behind Peyton Manning,

incredibly talented, and I've really come to admire the guy the more I watch them the more I listen how he talks

and his authenticity his realness his honesty and he's very very kind There were a couple moments in the interview where I asked a question where I went, oh, I should have said that, I should have worded that differently and he was incredibly kind and gracious and I hope I wasn't too harsh actually. And I got to say man, he the best he's so kind off-camera behind the scenes as well and so I got nothing else to say I can't recommend it enough he just recently started a YouTube show called the Ryan D Leaf

show and I just I think he's a wonderful human being so without further ado

enjoy my conversation with Ryan Leif.
