Hello and welcome to Prospects to Pros.

Sponsored by Vesco QQQ, the official ETF of the NCAA.

My name is Nate Tice.

I am your host today.

And as always, joining me, the Beast himself, Mr. Dane Bruegler, how are you doing? Now that we are almost into October, that we're starting to, your season, I know you're NFL and football fan and college football fan overall, but your season is just creeping every ever closer. So how are you doing today, date?

I'm good.

I'm good.

Yeah, this is, it's crazy. September's almost over. And this is one of the best times on the calendar because it's, you know, we have fresh tape. You know, we can react to these guys. We're learning about these guys. But no, it's good. I'm a little sore. On Sunday morning, we had my son, U10 soccer, the parents versus the team game.

Oh, my first ever soccer game, I was baseball football growing up. I never played soccer.

But, man, a full hour playing against those kids, I am sore.

Like, I haven't been in a while.

So I'm feeling it, but we're playing a little hurt this morning. When I was with the Falcons, we played, like, the equipment guys, some of the trainers, and then, like, you know, some of the scouts, we would play football, but it wasn't even touch football. It was as soon as you catch it, you're down. Like, so there's no running after the catch. Are you quarterback?

I was the quarterback always. Okay. But it's, but the quarterback could get rushed. And so it was scramble drill every single time. The first time I played that and, you know, I was just working out, but I was not moving. I was just, I got very bulky and big at that time. And I'm right.

That next day was one of the most sore I've ever been in my entire life. And it was just, I couldn't believe it, that pick up football game. But then we played soccer. And I think we, we found a soccer ball. We set up some cones and we just played like a little four on four. We're terrible. And after that, I like, my obliques were hurting. I was twisting or hurting.

That's it.

I can empathize.
