What's the best way to start a new year?

Spicy hot hot hot hot takes

and that's what we're going to get with my buddy Mike Gulleg Jr.

Plus some insight on what should happen

to some of the biggest coaching openings in the NFL and a betting number you absolutely don't want to miss on week 18.

We got all that more I'm Jason Fitz and it is time for Zero Blitz. Oh, I cannot wait for today because my buddy Michael

Jr is hanging out with me.

Now there's a couple of things that we need to get to.

Number one, most importantly and impressively, your beard phenomenal dude like I I really feel like it's full Peter Griffin family guy and I could be the little bird that lives inside the beard and just comes out and it's like your beard is just special

there are a few things that could have made me want to shave this faster than the thought of you living inside my face.

Just absolutely terrifying, but yeah, no-shaved November kind of just gave way to not shaving at all for a while and I'm at the stage in beer growth that's tough because Jason while the hair on top of my head is left the hair on my face

you get to this point now it's finally comfortable again you're done with the itchy stage it's nice and

plush it's very soft to the touch but it also gets in the way a certain thing. So I go back and forth every day

on if I'm going to cut it or not. It's basically like a back end of the roster guy. I don't know if based on what we need game day wise if I want it here or if we're going to

need to pick up another corner or a linebacker to run special teams.

While you mentioned that I should tell you there's a very very special connotation today's

episode. It was pointed out to me that you are

joining us on the 69th zero Blitz. So do with that information what you choose.

I'm not going to do anything you want me to do with that information.

Let's put it that way. Considering you started this off by talking a lot,

wanting to burrow in my face, I have no idea where else you want to go with this so I am going to back away slowly out of the scene.

Okay, that's fine. That's why I respect him so much by the way you can check out Mike's great work over on
