0:00.0	And away we go, episode 632 of the Algoldi podcast, it is Saturday, August 12, 2023, as
0:27.0	yes, it is you, it is me on a Saturday, the rare weekend installment of the podcast. This is the
0:33.8	only Washington DC area sports podcast or show for which there is a new episode each weekday,
0:39.7	Monday through Friday with each episode out also early, each weekday morning, but occasionally,
0:45.2	as in a few times a year, I do what I like to call scheduled emergency installments of the podcast
0:52.7	because the only thing more urgent than an emergency is a scheduled emergency and the commander's
0:59.9	2023 preseason opener on Friday night warrants a scheduled emergency installment of the pod. So great
1:09.6	to be with you and we have some things to discuss of a 1715 preseason opening win for the commanders

2:21.1	on Friday night. Not that preseason scores matter, but the new ownership was in attendance.
2:28.5	A managing partner, Josh Harris and limited partners, Mitchell Rails and Mark Eing were at the game,
2:34.8	and have at this head coach Rod Rivera during his post-game press conference late night on Friday night
2:40.7	revealed that he gave a game ball to Josh Harris. Here you go.
2:46.8	I had seen that they were on the field after the game. You know, we did hand Mr. Harris a game ball
