Oh, right, of course, because I should know who that is.

0:03.9

I don't care what you think.

0:05.4

I'll tell you something that rubbed me right.

Murray. We have spent the majority of the day talking about the NFL schedule, certainly

0:33.1

Jalen Brown, Janice Ante de Kumpo, the idea of bringing the Greek freak to the Celtics.

0:39.8

You'll play a cup for you a little bit later this hour from Chris Mannix,

0:43.2

who doubts whether or not the Celtics really want Janus to be a member of the franchise,

0:50.1

a member of the rotation, if you will.

0:53.1

Also, Red Sox, if you want to go there, we played some comments from Sam Kennedy earlier. Point is, wherever you want to go. But the schedule gets released tonight. We'll know the full slate, you know, middle of the evening or middle of the, I don't want to say middle of the night because that doesn't work right. But Murray, how long is that whole release?

1:31.2

Is it an hour? Yeah. But, I mean, I feel like, honestly, I mean, looking at this now, there's only four open slots from week one through week 18, looking at the Patriot schedule. I mean, it's, it feels like, I mean, it's not official, but it is mostly out there at this point. So you should know by, officially, by like 8.30 tonight, I would think, at the latest.

2:04.8

In all four weeks, I just think is rough sledding for the Pats to start three out of the first four weeks on the road. In all four weeks, it's against playoff teams from last year. So they open in prime time, the Wednesday night, against the Seahawks, rematch Super Bowl 60. And all right, the Seahawks have lost some players, and I certainly still don't believe in Sam Darnold, even though he still has a title, which I can't believe from last year. But defenses are typically ahead of offenses. The starts NFL seasons, right? We can agree on that. Sure. And I mentioned this, we mentioned on the show the last

2:09.7

couple of days, since they started doing this with these standalone openers with the reigning champion,

2:16.4

opening up typically on Thursday night, started in 2004.

2:19.1

Those teams are 16 and 5 in those spots.

2:22.3
