And away we go, episode 258 of the Algaldi podcast, it is Thursday, February 24th, 2022.

Good to have you with us, you know, the beauty of sports is that ultimately sports don't really matter.

All of these things that we think about and yell about, they in the grand scheme of things do not matter.

That's why sports are fun, they aren't life and death.

And so if you are seeking a distraction from Russia's invasion of Ukraine at the horror that the Ukrainian people are dealing with right now,

you have come to the right place.

I do this podcast in complete awareness of what's going on in the world, but I very much believe that a podcast like this one is meant to divert you from what is going on in the world.

If in fact you are seeking a diversion, and so it's nice to be with you with a show in which we have a lot to get to a special guest coming up in a bit former Redskins defensive back will black men.

I will tell you right now, this is the longest interview in the now one plus year history of the Algaldi podcast.

We talked for about 40 minutes. Will was that good?

Will has plenty to say about the commander's quarterback situation and about the state of the team.

I'm also going to discuss Will's time playing for the Redskins. We'll play for the skins for two seasons 2015 and 2016.

Will was right in the middle of the whole Beshad Brelin Josh Norman situation. Will will pull back the curtain.

If you are a skin slash Washington football team slash commanders fan, you're going to enjoy my chat with Will. He was great.

Next segment, I will address comments from Rod Rivera.

He spoke to commanders insider Ben standing of the athletic DC talked about the commanders approach in the quest for a franchise quarterback.

This off season also talked about the teams approach to quarterback for the 2022 season in terms of the 53 man roster.

Ron actually put forth what he's thinking in terms of what the team will have at quarterback on its 53 man roster for the 2022 season.

I'll get into all of this and I'll talk Virginia and Virginia Tech basketball. What's going to happen with Virginia and Virginia Tech in terms of making the NCAA tournament.

Each team has an NCAA tournament case, but each team also is far from a lock to make the NCAA tournament.
