All right, we have much to discuss here.

Gonna have Christian Politea back on after this to talk about how things did not quite go as we had anticipated in our last podcast.

But first, it's time to get into an annual exercise here.

The Mach Rookie Extensions, where Dan Feldman from NBC, Danny are going to play the teams.

I will be the player agent and we're gonna try and figure out what type of range these Rookie Extensions might be in.

We're also gonna look at some other guys as well towards the ends who are not on Rookie scale contracts,

but still could be potentially extension candidates.

So, how's it going guys?

Good, how are you?

Is that silence going to get truncated?

It won't sound as awkward as it was?

Yeah, I think it will.

I mean, I'm always hoping that you guys will chime in at the exact same time, but apparently that's a thing of the past.

There we go.

That's what we need.

Yeah, as somebody who's been doing two-person podcasts for the last month, I've been more judicious about that.

I was gonna ask, what do you prefer?

Like, us talking over each other or just a really long silence?

What is like the funniest?

Probably the talking over each other, I would say.

So, Dan, have you recovered from our trip to Buddy's Pizza in Detroit when you had to see all that melted cheese around you?

No doubt, roiled your stomach to see all of that deliciousness.
