You can read my work on ESPN.com. A couple programming notes for you before I get into a few second thoughts on the various topics, including the schedule, but also a couple other things. The Brian Wyside and I, the Voicing Manors, will be doing a live stream Tuesday night, told you we were doing it. I had hoped to do this the end of the schedule. Couldn't get it then, so we're going to do this tomorrow at 7.30 Eastern Time. Join us there. Questions, comments, concerns, whatever, whatever thoughts you may have about where we're at in the

offseason with the commanders.

And then on hopefully going to be able to do a private Zoom for the gold members on Thursday at 730 as well.

So anyways, that's, you know, join us with, with, uh, there for that.

Again, bring your comments comments whatever you want to say

i hope you were able to listen to my interview with greg cosell he's always informative always

insightful and i always and i've said this on the on the show other day, but I always like having a mom because

he's not a hot take artist. He's a, he's just a well-informed, insightful person who puts a lot of

And it really kind of clears things up because they might think, oh, it looks like this. And they say, well, actually, it's this. And that's, that's where the benefit is. That's where the, you know, the beauty of your job is, if you have access to it, you better get better information from it.

And that does help formulate thoughts, opinions, but also when you're analyzing,

it's very important to not just rely on what you see, talk to the people who know more.

And that's what I like to do.

It's what Greg does at a very high level.

So anyways, that's why I like to have mine next Monday. I will be having on Rikers' Offensive Court to talk about their Washington

seventh round pick quarterback, Aethon, Callie Akmonis. Now, he's not a guy that's going to
