I'm your host Ian Hartitz. We got another dynasty edition coming up, trying to get through

0:16.0

these dog days of February and style. And then we'll worry about free agency and all that

0:19.5

stuff down the line. Very special guest to help me accomplish that goal. He is the late

0:24.5

round fancy football creator host of the award winning late round fancy football podcasts.

0:29.2
