| 0:00.0 | Joining us now, he is on the Java House Peel and Poor guest line. |
| 0:04.8 | Jake 25, by the way, the discount code at Javahouse.com, but Joel A. Erickson is with the |
| 0:09.6 | Indianapolis star. Joel, I'll begin with this. Yesterday, the big news of Sauce Gardner on his |
| 0:15.4 | way to Indianapolis. From what you have heard, we had Jeney Cookley on yesterday from S&Y that covers the Jets, |
