I'm on three meetings and are they haven't even actually started yet and already Commissioner Greg Sanky's breathing fire

yeah while you were working on Monday evening I was in playoff debates with people on the internet so just in, I don't know what you were filing a column.

I don't know what that column's about. We're going to have to walk through that right now.

But I was arguing with people about Alabama's strength of schedule while you are writing. So that's

And that's the problem is everybody's not going to get what they want.

And so somebody who doesn't get what they want is going to be like, well, this isn't good

for the game.

And so that's, that's where it comes from.

It is a really interesting situation as they boil down what happens next in the college

football playoff, the 2026 and beyond of it all.

Ari, I just want you to think about this.

So in this press conference, he actually uttered this sentence. Hold on. I'm going to
