What's up, gang? We've missed you on a Monday night.

We are back here for the Monday smash on Warchand TV presented by State Farm, Agent Russ Forhes. He's Irish Ophel, managing editor of Warchant.com. My name is Tom Lang, and welcome in. Everybody gather in. It's going to be an interesting discussion tonight on Monday, October the 27th. We had last week off scheduled because of West Coast travels on the bye week. It's getting interesting here

in Tallahassee around Florida State football. Ira, how's it going tonight? We have not shared

the screen since before the Stanford game. How's it going, man? It's going well. Yeah,

you know, back I don't know at some point during the summer when I looked at the schedule and said,

you know what, they've got this road trip to Stanford.

Should be a nice, easy win out there on the road with an interim coach for Stanford.

And I'm sure we're going to vet very many of them tonight as we discuss this over the next hour. We'll tell you more about our sponsor, State Farm, Agent Russ for us in a little bit. I, I'm excited for this show tonight because I are typically when these types of things occur, big picture issues.

I think if you did a swath of where the staff sits or our entire Warchance staff on the issues,

usually we're pretty close in the same camp.

I don't know that that's the case this time.

I think the fan in me has overpowered the,

the analyst in me a little bit here, but I don't think I'm wrong about that,

but I'm interested to have the conversation tonight.

This situation has broken me, sir.

I am, I'm looking forward to getting some insights as we discussed this evening.

It was funny, man, watching it all unfold from California because just, yeah, man, like you,
