Avs Nights, here's an NFL film track to get you all lubed up and ready for that analysis. Nah, we're talking National Football League. And joining us right now to do that, friend of the show, one of the most talented guys in the business covering the National Football League for a long time, insider for our friends at the NFL network. And I told him off air. Like, he's, he's, it's kind of swole. My guy's in the gym. He looks good. Mike Garifolo from NFL Network on Twitter at his name. I, at Mike Garifolo. Mike, welcome to the show. How are you? Happy Wednesday. So I tell people all the time, you can't be bald, ugly, and fat. You can't be all three if you're going to try to be honest. So I try to at least eliminate one. And the one that I can control, I guess, the best. Yeah, we know, we try to get some workouts in here and there. It's hard with kids. Like, you know that, right?

And I was like, oh, I've got him.

3:08.0

Like, I've got him blocked.
