| 0:00.0 | Hello there, boys and girls. Welcome to another edition of the Business of Sports with Andrew Brand. I'm your host, Andrew Brand. That music is from my son, Sam Brand. Great to see him coming in from L.A. over the holiday break. And we're going to do a branch, rants today. I've been very vocal on Twitter and writing on podcasts like this one and, of of course talking on the radio about this game. |
| 0:22.6 | As I sit here, it's on Wednesday afternoon. |
| 0:24.6 | We're about an hour away from kickoff as I record this. |
| 0:28.4 | And the kickoff is a go between the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers in a game that I think should not be played. |
| 0:36.0 | But it's going to be played. |
| 0:37.4 | I'll ran about that in a second. I'll also |

| 0:45.5 | and why the Eagles, as I've noted so often this week, are really stuck with Wentz, no matter |

| 1:18.0 | It is hard to figure out what, at this point, on Wednesday, December 2nd, as they approach |
| 1:25.4 | a Wednesday afternoon game, what will cause a week or more postponement, I guess to week 18, for the NFL or potential cancellation? |
| 1:38.8 | And everyone's joking around, well, a nuclear war or armed conflict. |
| 1:43.0 | Listen, I'm trying to be serious. What is it that's going to |
| 1:45.6 | postpone it? Because as we sit here today, the Ravens are going to play this game. Okay? The Ravens |
| 1:53.4 | are going to play this game with not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven, |
