We're coming, and we ain't backing down.

We don't need a bunch of cats in here.

Looking in the mirror.

Everybody just do your job. You got to stay next? Hey, will you shut up? I'm bitterly disappointed with the officiating today. Guys being dudes. And they run through our like a shit through a ten horn, man. Ah, fuck it. Thank you, Lee. Listeners, friends, subscribers, Alex Kirchner remains in parts unknown for a little bit before he returns to us.

So I have the man, the myth, the legend, one Stephen Godfrey here to talk about the American, which is frankly the football side of the conversation we had about this league, what was it, two weeks ago when we sort of talked about their place in the world.

Yeah, we did. We did. Yeah. Now we actually have to talk about the tackle football.

So let us begin with, and we're going to go in, you know, call it some rough order of the preseason poll.

You know how we do things here, Rose, Bud, and Thorn.

We talk about probably the league's

Rose, or at least one of the two,

first, regale me

with the two-lane green wave.

Now, we're just going to jump right into it.

So Rose Bud Thorne, by the way,

it took me a minute to remember how to do Rose Butthor.

I don't know. Is that just me or is that like, because this is very much Alex's like, well, if he was here, we would have broken the conceit within the first five minutes.

Okay. All right. I just like, what's a bud again? So, okay, I'm going to be really obvious on this one. I think, too, we're going to talk. You ordered this basically in like, what's a bud again? So, okay, I'm going to be really obvious on this one.

I think, too, we're going to talk.

You ordered this basically in like conference favorite, a sending to decency or descending

order, right?

Like, talking about the good teams first.

Yes, essentially.
