All right, Rico. This is where you have promised the people a question. You've promised a question that

0:05.2

is introspective. I know you spent all weekend staring at yourself in the mirror pondering,

0:10.8

what is my purpose? Who am I? What am I here to do on this earth? And after God wouldn't talk to you,

0:17.6

you acknowledge the second best person to talk to was me. So I'm here for it. And you have a

0:23.6

question about you and your feelings on Brad Holmes. Yeah. I mean, I even thought about pulling up

0:30.0

one of those AI type of things to try to answer this question for me. Hold on. Hold on.

0:36.2

Caffeine engaged. Now I'm ready to listen. Talk to me. Here's the thing. I listen to David. I

0:41.3

listen to Kenny. I listen to a lot of callers and a lot of callers think that Brad Holmes is the

0:46.9

the best thing since sliced bread to hit this city that Brad Holmes will figure this thing out

1:30.8

I've seen. I've seen other GM's do what he's doing. And right now I think he's doing a good job.

1:36.8

I think he's doing what GM should do. You need to hit on at least three of your draft,

1:41.2

three or four your draft picks every year. But I don't have that type of love for Brad Holmes

1:47.6

that everybody else has. And I'm just wondering plain as simple. Am I being a hater? Am I just hating on

1:53.5

Brad Holmes because I don't see what everybody else sees. I'm not feeling the way everybody else feels

2:00.0

about this man. I don't understand it. I don't get it. And I'll leave it to the people.
