| 0:00.0 | But we do it every week at this time. It is Friday frivolity. And for that, I throw it to myself, Donovan, as we do a segment on Tuesdays called This Week in Sports History. |
| 0:13.4 | We do. |
| 0:14.1 | The acronym Twish is what we refer to it as. And we find fun clips from Sports Pass and play them for you. |
