and Hello welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Koller here once again

talking a little quietly because it is extremely early and I'm inside my hotel

room before leaving Philadelphia.

It is time for a Monday morning Murph.

Brian Murphy, I think it will be a little bit of a different tone this morning than it was the last time we gathered at a very early hour to discuss a Vikings game.
