Hello and welcome to the MMQB NFL podcast I'm Conor

and we should have the special Dateline music playing today or something like that because we've got a very special episode.

No Albert Breyer today so direct all of your hardcore football questions to Albert Breyer.

We have hardcore reporting questions for today. This is very exciting.

We have our senior writer, our columnist Michael Rosenberg here, and Michael just dropped the magazine equivalent of the television series the Ozarks on our website.

It is a massive sprawling excellent work on the Brett Farv case and I can hear what you're saying already you're saying I already

know everything about the Brett Farve case.

I think I got a grasp on what the Brett Farve case has to offer.

My response is no you don't. So Michael, welcome. What's going on

buddy? How are you? I'm great. It's great to be on here and I'm glad that you

let people know I am not here to answer

anybody's hardcore football questions so I appreciate. I'm over the course of the

next few, over the course of the next few minutes going to ask you to kind of lead us through this this massive investigation and I don't know have you ever seen the movie Don't look up with Leonardo DiCaprio? I don't think I have.

He is an astrophysicist that discovers a comet that's spiraling to the earth that's going to

kill us all.

And it's sort of a modern satire. and so his agents have him go on basically the equivalent of the Today Show and he's trying to explain that an asteroid is going to kill us all to the Today Show and the Today Show is just basically like, oh you're wearing a fun shirt, you know, and he's like, my God, you know, please. So forgive me in advance for being the exact same person.

But I want to start with kind of a basic question which is, you know, after all this, the

FARV reporting actually just won the Pulitzer Prize, which is very cool, Anna Wolf from Mississippi today.

What was the impetus to sort of dig in and take another bite of this?

What was your aim at it going after this?

Well, I will say I believe that's the only time I've ever been compared to Leonora DiCaprio or an astrophysicist, so I do appreciate that.

Yeah, so there has been, obviously, Anna Wilson done amazing work.
