Okay, three, two, one.

Oh my goodness, good morning, good afternoon.

Whatever it is for you, I hope you're having a fantastic day.

My name is Alex Chandler. This is strong opinion

sports. Thank you so very much for tuning in today. It's Friday, October 5th.

We see will be for another two and a half hours. God, it been a hard week. It's been a really really tough week for me. I personally just struggled a ton.

School's getting to me. I just got to

I just I really don't like college. I don't like my classes. It's been midterm week and I just gotta press on and keep fighting I guess I don't know I want to start with this

I do this weird thing about every five months. I wouldn't even call it weird. It's just it's who I am. I've learned to accept that's who I am. About every five months I get into a very severe funk. I can't explain it. I don't know exactly why. I get depressed. I get

sad. I get useless. I'm just not myself. It's a weird bizarre thing. But what

I've done is I've learned to expect it. Now every every five, six months, I'm okay, this is just what happens to me.

It's weird, I get in a down funk and I go through it and I gotta press on and get through this.

You know, I weather it. I sleep, I lay in bed, I try to lay low and get my head right.

And eventually it always passes. I go through a tough time and it always goes away.

And since I expected, it doesn't surprise me anymore. and it always goes away.

And since I expected it doesn't surprise me anymore.

I've come to go, this is just how it is.

This is the way it works for me.

The New England Patriots are the exact same way.

The Patriots are just like my weird every five month depression.

For the third year in a row, people have told me,

oh no, the Patriots are not good good enough it's not going to work
