Welcome back, everyone, everyone, to another episode of the Irish Breakdown podcast, brought to you by our friends over at Fandle. Happy Tuesday, March 10th. Also happens to me my wife's birthday. Happy birthday, Lauren. Hope you're having the best day ever out at work. And hopefully we, I know we, are going to have the best day ever here on the show today, Brian, because we're going to be talking offensive line. I think it's Bush League that just because we're adults, we don't get to take our birthdays off. I think that's Bush League. Didn't it? Yeah, I think it's very Bush League. I'll run it up the chain of command. I'll talk to my boss about it. But once her birthday. It's saying we're talking about your birthday. No, my her birthday. She shouldn't have to work today because it's her birthday. It's ain't your birthday, because. So we got a rock and roll and we got a great show today. We do. We do, man.
