Oh my goodness, good morning, good afternoon.

Whatever it is for you, I hope you're having a fantastic day.

My name is Zach Schamler. This is Strong Opinion Sports. The first episode of the week, the next one will be Friday.

I am, cross your fingers everybody. I believe this is the second to last episode I will ever record without a canopy behind me.

The amount of money and time and emotional energy and stress it has cost me this delay.

It's been one of the most difficult periods of my entire life. It's

without the canopy, maybe two depending on when I record the early episode next week.

Maybe it's Monday night, maybe I get it next Tuesday night,

so we'll see.

I hope we're doing very well.

available this year and even their starting quarterback Justin Herbert

has been heard he's got banged-up ribs I can't even imagine by the way like
