Hey, it's Ben.

I hope you're having a wonderful day today.

And I thank you for choosing to spend some time with us on the podcast as we play the audio from our radio show. For those of you that are former third shift workers who still get to enjoy the show via the podcast, we thank you for being loyal.

It means a lot for the show.

So here's what's coming up on today's edition of the podcast. The Utah Jazz

Patient Zero, Rudy Gobert has apologized. But was that the right decision? Was that the right

decision? Will the NCAA allow the seniors who have now been banned from playing in championship rounds to come back.

There is a call for that to happen, but will they actually consider it?

The NFL is still planning at this moment to hold the draft in Vegas.

What are the chances that actually happens?

And is that the right thing?

The draft scheduled for late April, which is more than a month out from where we are right now.

And an NFL headline of the goat, Tom Brady, is getting charbroiled for spitting out facts about the coronavirus on social media and comparing it to other things in life, we examine the

shame that Tom Brady is getting from that.

We have some other surprises along the way and throwing out a bunch of random ideas on stuff

we could be doing, stuff we could be doing on the show in future episodes as we go through the great nuclear spring with no sporting events.

We take the sports out of sports radio, but we try to entertain you.

Here it is today's show.

Have a great weekend.

And let a roll.
