Friday edition of Pro Football Talk Live, and look who we have here, all the way from Texas

0:11.8

by the miracle of modern technology. Texas tied to West Virginia tied to Stanford, Connecticut,

0:16.6

brought to you wherever you may be. Shereen Williams here with me on this Friday edition

0:21.5

of PFT Live. Good morning, Shereen. Good morning, Mike. Glad to be here this morning. Thanks

0:27.1

for having me on. Not quite 4 a.m. like it was for miles last Friday, but 6 a.m. local time for

0:35.6

Shereen, 7 a.m. for me, and it's timeless if you're listening on podcast. Also, we are live

0:42.0

and available on demand on Peacock, Series XM85, Sky Sports UK Ireland. Welcome in to everybody

0:47.9

as we start into the first weekend with more than one preseason game. We had two last night.

1:02.2

1:48.2

love having so many games night after night after night. It's fun. I see a future for the NFL and

1:55.4

hopefully we both are on the right side of the dirt to experience it. I see a future with more

2:03.7

teams up to 40 at some point, more games, 18, maybe 20, maybe at some point there's no preseason at

2:13.4

all. I just play 20 games that count on Sunday, on Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday and on Thursday.
