This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

Welcome to NFL Daily, where we're so big time we can wear shorts to work.

Yes, I'm here in the Chris Wesleying podcast studio with my partner, Patrick Claibon, who, yeah, he is big time enough. He's one of the only two

people Eric Roberts has ever seen wearing shorts. I'm shocked to hear that. Yes. Because honestly,

I'm not, I don't see myself as big time now, nor definitely when I first came here for my

interview, didn't wear here for my interview.

Didn't wear shorts on my interview.

Yeah.

But in that first year coming to work at 3 o'clock in the morning to do news shifts,

I, who am I dressing up for the walls?

That's fair.

But now you got people getting in your grill.

I think it was Dave Schott, who's in the news.

Runs the news department in some way, the talent there. Like, I think I wore shorts once and he yelled at me enough. And he, I've heard he yelled at you too, that I never did. It wasn't yelling. I think that first interaction with Greg Rosenthal taught him a lesson. You don't come at Greg sideways. And it maybe gave shot a little bit of a lesson on how to deal with people in shorts. Well, it's a big show here. It's a pre-super Bowl week show. And I told

you guys before the show, it's just one of those days where you feel like you're always playing

playing catch-up. I feel like I'm stuck in a one-two count right now. And I'm just,

I'm just fouling the balls off and barely surviving. So I hope we deliver what's going to be a

really fun show. And we're including you, our listeners in it, because I asked on the old

interwebs on blue sky for some questions. And so we're going to have a fun mail bag. And then

we're also going to do our calls of the year. And we don't know who's going to win. Eric really

took control of this process. He's putting on his big boy pants and covering up those big leg tattoos.
