You're listening to Draft Kings Network. So if I take the W in Wes and I make it an L, then I can have the campaign slogan of less is more.

Less, do you like that?

Less is more? I feel like you're just sort of patronizing me. Okay, we're going to stick with Wes. Okay, we're going to stick with Wes. It sounds like a lisp if I make it. Wes is more. Wes is more. He's Wes Moore. He's the governor of Maryland. And I'm thrilled to hear you're a sports fan. I'm thrilled to hear that you're here.

I was wondering why you'd be a part of this ramshackle operation. It's because I'm a fan and I've been a fan for a long time. The only thing I am mad about, I thought Papa would be here.
