Welcome to the back-to-back pod on the Athletic Podcast Network.

This is Nerders, she wrote, with your host, Dave Dufour.

With Moe, and Zence Cartnow.

Are you ready to be entertained?

Yeah! you ready to be entertained? Hello and welcome to this week's nerds she wrote on the back-to-back podcast on the Athletic Podcast Network.

I think I got all that covered.

I'm your host, Dave Drafour, joined as I am every week by Seth Partnow and Mo DeKiel. We got Mike Smeltz listening in very closely to make sure we don't make any massive mistakes. What's up, guys? Listen, if I'm going to make a mistake, I'd rather it be massive than small, Dave. That, I mean, that's true. At least you know that it's a huge mistake and it can be cleaned up pretty easily. It's those little ones that slip through. You get enough little ones. That's what hurts you. Yeah. Moe is all about the big lie.

That's right. He's ready for politics. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. We just spent the last

25 minutes basically doing the podcast as we were planning it. I think I think it's

important to just jump right out and talk a little bit about the NBA reopening facilities,

how we feel about it given the information we've got and, you know, how feasible all this stuff

is. Seth, you and I, we've talked now on two occasions.

We probably have another one that we are overdue for with Dr. Benny and Dr.

Potazi, an epidemiologist and a viral infection expert.

This is ridiculous, right?

It's farcical.

Which part is ridiculous?

The idea that the NBA is somehow, or sports in general, somehow

are special and don't have to follow the rules that the rest of society is going to be

operating under.

Hmm. You actually came on stronger than even I would. Oh, yeah. No, no, I think it's, I think

it's farcical.
