Hi, I'm Tara Palmeri.

I'm Puck Senior Political Correspondent and host of Somebody's Gotta Win.

Brought to you by The Ringer and Spotify.

The 2024 election has been upended, with Joe Biden off the ticket and Donald Trump facing

a new challenger, Kamala Harris.

If you want to hear what the insiders are really saying about the race, join me Tuesdays

and Thursdays as I break it all down with lawmakers, journalists, and political

strategists.

We'll go deeper than the headlines to the anxieties at the highest levels of power.

And of course, we'll chew over all the hot political gossip as we head into this historic

election.

Be sure to follow, somebody's got to win at Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to the Ringer Fantasy Football Show.

My name is Danny Hyphins, and I'm joined by Danny Kelly, and that's it.

We actually already recorded this episode with Craig yesterday.

Today is Thursday, August 1st.

We recorded our quarterback tiers episode with Craig yesterday on Wednesday. but then so much stuff happened today that we wanted to talk about the stuff that happened today. But Craig's at his 30th birthday. And I didn't really want to bother him at his 30th birthday weekend away because Justin Herbert has planter fasciitis. That didn't really seem to.

Right now, it's like very generic run up the middle of the field and just move on with lives because they don't want to put anything on tape for special teams, coaches, opponents to study so they can get ahead of it. So my first impression was like, oh, that doesn't look as crazy as I thought, but I don't

think we were seeing the real kickoff returns quite yet. Yeah, there's nothing kinky yet. Like week one is when we're going to see the Cadarist Tony backpass or whatever to like that Welsh rugby player for the Chiefs. But until that, it's just going to be a bunch of, oh, that's weird. The last one we saw a guy caught it
