So glad you're with us.

Welcome back, Nick.

Hope you enjoyed your trip and are ready to dive into draft prep only for the next 63 days.

Yeah, yeah. You've got nothing else left to do. Nothing, nothing at all. No coordinator writing, no Fort Worth Star Telegram.

I have never been more excited for a combine week. Wow.

I'll say that. Not necessarily from like a draft perspective, but more so just like a league buzz perspective. I think it's going to be fun. It's going to be a lot of fun.

We've got it up on the YouTube channel, but there was a lot of reaction.

Votch, I'm interested to hear your reaction there too because I saw you guys went live with it. But Tommy, you were in the room. What were some of the things that you took away from Parker's press conference yesterday? Well, he comes across as a really smart guy, which doesn't surprise us. I think everything that we kind of heard about him was that he's very you know, very bright. I enjoyed the art of war and philosophy references back. So it's very clear that this is a guy who knows
