Hey, everybody, it's Wednesday, May 3rd, 2023. Welcome to the NFL fantasy football podcast. We're not ready for silly season. It's me, your man MG Marcus grand joy by Michael F.

Boy, we got two specialists over on the side there. Shout out to Randy and Albert for showing up and helping us out today.

Yeah, Florian, so the draft is in the review mirror. I guess the next big thing for us around here is schedule release for.

How do you feel about schedule release?

Look, if the bosses are listening, it is the greatest thing ever. We should have more events like this.

If the bosses have tuned out by now, it is the most overhyped thing in sports because we literally the moment play ends in week 18.

We know every opponent that every team is going to face. We just don't know when on the calendar. It's basically just unveiling a calendar is what it is. I understand. I get it.

I know it drives viewership. I don't understand. We do like a multi hour show about it. But I'm with you. There's not. I can't get myself super excited about it.

I don't know if you've ever been here like long enough sitting worth like I have been fortunate enough in the past.

And I don't know if I'm allowed to say this, but whatever if they come for me, they come for me.

Where I've had to write about schedule release. And so I will get the schedule like a day or two in advance.

It is like top secret nuclear football level stuff. I mean like it is handed to you or email to you with like bright red letters.

I do not release this under penalty of death. And I'm like, I'm not going to say anything, but I know that like literally every B writer in existence is going to be leaking this over the next 24 hours.

The leaks of the schedule annoy me more than the hype for the schedule release because I'm like, we know this just let people get excited about it.

Besides that, the people who then have to write about it after and like break it down.

I'm like, you could have wrote this article three months ago and just had been sitting on it.

Because again, all we're finding out is when the games are being pretty much.

I mean, I think the biggest thing I pull out of it is like when are by weeks.

So you can like maybe you can prep to grab somebody off the waiver wire for by weeks, something like that.

And that you know, I don't I guess if you want when certain revenge matchups happen or something.

I do get excited to see who the international games are.

That's true. That that to me is probably that I go like, okay, who's playing overseas?
