0:00.0 | You're listening to Draft King's Network. Hey there, boys and girls. Welcome to another edition of the business of sports with Andrew Brand. |
0:37.8 | I'm your host, Andrew Brandt. We're produced by Jack Connell, musical producer of my son, |
0:41.9 | on his way home for Thanksgiving, Sam Brandt. And of course, we are presented at always by |
0:46.9 | Draft Kings. Happy Thanksgiving week to everyone. Hope you're going to be around the three Fs in your |
0:53.0 | life, friends, family, and football. In whatever |
0:57.0 | order that is important to you. Let's make it a peaceful, happy, calm, and fun and love-filled |
1:03.2 | Thanksgiving. You know, I say this every year. In my nine years in Green Bay, we played at Detroit |
1:10.7 | on Thanksgiving three times. It's extraordinary |
1:13.6 | that it happened that often. But one third of the time of my thanksgivings in Green Bay were spent |
1:20.1 | in Detroit, Michigan. However, what I'd like to say is we love those trips. I know everyone's |
1:27.2 | going to say, well, you're playing on a short |
1:28.5 | week, and it's Thanksgiving, and what a, what a sacrifice, absolutely not. Those were the |
1:34.9 | favorite trips of my time, because here's the thing. When you go from Green Bay to Detroit, |
1:41.2 | number one, you pick up an hour, or I guess you lose an hour. No, I think you gain an hour. Because Detroit is Eastern, Green Bay is Central. It's a 40-minute flight at most, probably 30, 35-minute flight. You get in on Wednesday night. You have a nice dinner with your team and friends, whatever it may be, you play at 1230 Eastern on Thanksgiving, which is 1130 Central. |
2:07.6 | So the game is over, 3.34 at the Airport 5, back home in Green Bay, 637 Eastern, which is 536 Central. I was at this Thanksgiving dinner |
2:24.2 | table by 6.37 o'clock and had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal every time we played in Detroit. |
2:33.0 | And here's the kicker. Completely off that |
2:37.1 | weekend, mini buy, as they call it. Loved it. Love playing on Thanksgiving. So I don't know if it's the |
2:45.1 | same. Obviously, the Bears going to Detroit this year. That would be the same kind of thing. |
2:50.2 | Although they're on, yeah, they're on |
2:51.5 | central time. They'll be home for Thanksgiving dinner. Great situation. Now, if you're playing |
