Regan, you know him, NBC Sports Washington. We do this podcast together. But I'm just going to be the one kind of steering all this because we got a thousand people on this. And there's nothing more interesting than trying to do these big conversations when you have so many people on Zoom and somebody's internet goes out. I'm going to make one prediction first, guys, before we get into this. Somebody's internet's going to crap out at some point, and we're going to have to deal with like the sputtery conversation that's just inevitable. We're on Zoom. Nick, it's always yours. No, that is not true. It's not always mine. I have good internet. I'm just not every time. It's... The fun thing to do is to fake it, and then everyone gets really, especially like live TV.

Let's look kind of at the division alignment we have first, because we've got teams that aren't usually in the same division with each other. This is a weird year. You're going to see these teams so much more. You know, we're going to have these little mini series, which I think is going to be interesting. I like to see the NHL, maybe even continue this moving forward, but we'll take baby steps with this. DJ you first. How do you feel about it? I love the mini series. I love the back to backs. Those are always great when you
