Oh, hi diddily hoe neighbor.

All right, we are ready to rock on a Thursday.

Rico.

Today is a day I dread.

You know what?

It is. I realize that pre-show as I'm trying to make jokes and I'm like Mike I'm just yeah

Didn't realize it you dread it this day so much this is a fun day. It is not. Listen, it's a beautiful day out. Oh, it's a great day outside. But I realized how ill-equipped I am to do radio today by listening to the other shows.

Because what I heard was a group of men priming their pump

to a schedule that we have no way of knowing who's any good enough. We have how many months until the games take place.

And I listen to one individual say that this football team is going 14 and three and do it with conviction and I'm like yeah I'm you know what I should take a personal day today.

I hate the schedule game. I hate it. It's fun. We all do this and because you know it means nothing. It's

like the day after your fantasy draft or you know what it's today it's it's like

watching and listening to mock drafts or the day after the NFL or whatever

league you like draft because now you sit there and say we just got the next Hall of Fame

player and when you put Player X in this lineup it's fantasy. It's like when you

add Matt Veerling to the Tigers lineup and you're like this is going to be the answer.

Yes and you know what? No, no, no, it's not. But for two months it is. Okay, so here's what we're going to do. I decided, okay, I can either pout and be a poppy pants

or we can get creative.

So I said, you know what, I'm going to take a note

from what leaders do.

Leaders of industry, leaders of our nation.

Leaders invest.
