Welcome to the Athletic Football Show.

I'm Robert Mays.

Really fun show for you guys today.

For those of you listen to the podcast last year, you know that we did a wins pool over the course of the entire season.

Me and Nate each pick five teams.

The team had the fewest wins at the end of the year.

Had a punishment.

I had to wear a hot dog suit

for an entire day on Radio Row, which was good for content, but not good for my self-esteem.

So we decided to run it back this year. We're doing it with Derek. We're going to do five teams again.

The twist is we're also going to pick two bad teams. We'll talk about how we classify bad when we get there.

So seven teams apiece that we're going to have to ride with the entire season.

This was a blast.

Let's get to it.

Joining me now, it's my co-hosts here at the bandbought of football show.

It's Derek Krasse, Derek.

How you doing, ma'am?

I'm doing good.

I'm doing really good. So, I mean, I only care about two sports. One of them, obviously, is football. We both work in this, so I think that's the easy one. And we're in preseason mode here with football. The only other sport I care about is League of Legends, and they're in postseason mode,

and my team just won the game they were not supposed to win.

So this weekend, I actually feel pretty good.

Look at you. only other sport I care about is League of Legends, and they're in postseason mode. And my team just won the game.
