Welcome to the athletic football show.

I'm Robert May is joining me today.

It's my good friend Nate Tyson.

How you doing, buddy?

I'm doing very well as I hit the record button right before I start talking.

I am doing awesome because this is because for whatever reason, the shows that I feel like have in the bag end up making me the most scrambled before.

So I am feeling great, though.

I love doing awards like we did with our Pro

show. And I said this before. I love ranking stuff. I love titling stuff. I love an awards

show or postseason awards is just, it's catnip for me. It really is. I'm excited to dive into this.

You know, some overlap with the All-Pro show that we did last week.

The All-Pro show, I love doing those All-Pro shows just because it's a chance to dive into players at every single position. And we really get to celebrate the best guys in the league. But we got to do awards. Yeah. We can't not do it. So even if there's a little bit of overlap, I still think both of them are worth doing. We're doing season along awards today.

Our producer, Michael Bell, had a great idea.

We're going to structure it a little bit of overlap. I still think both of them are we're doing. We're doing season along awards today. Our producer, Michael Bell, had a great idea. We're going to structure a little bit like the Oscars. We're going to have a couple bigger ones at the top. And then we're going to get to the technical awards in the middle. They don't even televise the technical awards anymore. But like sound editing is still in there. So we'll get to sound editing. and then we'll save the big one for the end. Dude, there was one

that I could'll save the big one for the end.

Dude, there was one that I can tell you, the whatever year Mad Max Fury Road came out.

And for whatever reason, that Oscar production was so good that year that stuck with me to this, to this day that I'm bringing it up in 2023 about an Oscars production.
