Welcome to the Fantasy NBA today podcast. All right, so look folks, I may be overdoing it, just the tiniest bit on vocal use these days.

Try to fight it off, try to put it off, try to just power through, and at a certain point you realize

maybe it's a bit much. Good news is I don't have any play-by-play gigs until January

so that'll take a little bit of the strain off but just looking back at this week

for instance we did two shows on Monday two shows on

Tuesday two shows on Wednesday one show on Thursday two shows on Friday and

then I had two basketball games to call on Thursday and two basketball games to call on Saturday.

And that's probably just too much.

You roll it all together and it's something like two, four, six, seven, nine, eleven, thirteen, fourteen,

it's about fourteen-ish hours of yelling.

So anyway, I woke up this morning and just everything through the neck up into the lower jaw was swollen and tight. But I got to get a show out because

tomorrow I will be playing hooky for a day. I'll be honest with you guys. Straight hooky. We promised

our older kid for his birthday in November he could either have a giant party with all of his friends, which, you know, my wife and

I were not so secretly crossing our fingers, he'd be like, no, we don't need to do that, because

he's got elementary school friends and friends left over from preschool and a bunch of friends from Little League and then their parents and if you throw a party like that suddenly you're at like a hundred people in your apartment courtyard and realizing oh my god what have we done or your other

option was pick one friend to go to Disneyland and that's what he chose and so that's

tomorrow meaning we got to get tomorrow stuff done today.

That's what this show is. Normally we do two shows on Monday we're going to roll

them all into one episode right here right now a weekend recap show a week, a look at the week ahead.

So welcome everyone to a combo episode of Fantasy NBA.

Today I know everybody's sort of getting settled in for football right now.

NFL kicks off in about 45 minutes.
