| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to episode 222 of the official established run dot com podcast. |
| 0:23.0 | My name is Adam Levitan and today we have a very very special guest, one of the oldest |
| 0:29.3 | and best friends of the show. He's coming off yet another top 10 finish in the expert rankings |
| 0:35.7 | competition. It's only 2 p.m. Eastern right now. So he's not on peyote or tequila yet, although |
| 0:41.2 | you couldn't tell by his beard. It is our own Pat Thorman Thorman. How's it going, buddy? |
| 0:47.0 | It's going pretty good. I'm looking forward to that peyote into killing. Okay. On today's |
| 0:55.3 | show, we are going to talk about pace. I think much like offensive line play, which by the way, |
| 1:01.3 | we covered with Thorn last week pace analysis is underrepresented relative to the impact it has |
| 1:08.3 | on fantasy football. If you've ever done a projection, you know that the place to start is just |
| 1:14.2 | straight. Well, how many plays is a team going to run in this game? And that's more complicated |

| 1:33.3 | outlooks today. Before we get into that, wanted to remind everyone that if you have a fantasy draft |
| 1:39.0 | coming up, we can help our draft kit. It's just 34.99 includes syllabus top 150 tears team by |

| 1:57.5 | draft. Second, if you have already purchased a draft kit, please take the free underdog money. |
| 2:02.7 | You are entitled to $10 as an existing user $35 if you are new. Just go to the best ball tab |
| 2:08.6 | on the site under underdog. You'll see an article titled how to claim your underdog credit |
| 2:13.6 | would be very silly not to take the free money. All right, let's get into it. First of all, |
| 2:19.2 | before we get into the pace stuff, shout out to Thorman as I mentioned for another top 10 finish |
