Oh, yeah. Back on the radio, and I'm excited to be in for Stu today. Thank you for the opportunity.

Let's get into it.

Taylor, Mike the A. You know, I listen to you guys all the time now. That's the show that I listen to. You know, since I no longer do a radio show, this has become my show. So it's weird to be here as opposed to driving or listening on the free I-Hard app. So very happy to be here. We're going to have a lot of fun today, a lot of topics to get into.

not be in a

position where, uh-oh, there's some turmoil, some problems here with Dexter Lawrence and the

Giants. I wouldn't be in the business of giving them up. I don't care what the cost is. If you want

to win this year, and that's what Harbaugh said, you want to win this year, you better make sure

you pay him because there's nobody in that draft, especially this year's draft, that's going to replace what Dexter Lawrence can do. Sal, correct me if I'm wrong, and I agree with you 100%, but weren't you one of the guys that gave me flack for when I said the same thing when the Jets traded away, Quinn and Williams and
