Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football podcast.

I'm your host, Justin Boone, and on today's show, this is a big one.

Not just because we're going to talk

about risers and followers from training camp that's definitely important but we have the

perfect guest to join us today sigman bloom of football guys one of the best in

the business and a guy who I actually credit for making me want to get into fantasy

football as a career because he was one of the first

analysts and there are others but Sig was one of the first that I came across who set the

example that this can be a thinking man's game that there's more to this industry than just

hot takes because Sig does a phenomenal job of bringing everything together in his analysis

and I've talked about this in the

podcast before, but the idea of like when I'm doing my rankings and my content, I'm trying to

paint that picture. I'm trying to build that mosaic. I'm trying to use all these different

data points, the stats, the historical precedence, the narratives, the public perception, everything,

every single piece of information I can get my eyes on.

And then I'm blending that together to craft my content.

That's the best way to do this in my opinion.

And I think Sig does it as well as anybody out there.

And just his genuine excitement, curiosity, that the joy that he has covering the league, it's infectious.

So I couldn't be happier that he's joining me today.

Sigmund, welcome to the show. Thank you for carving out the time. I know this is one of the busier weeks on the fantasy calendar. The majority of drafts are taking place over the next seven or eight days here. So I really appreciate you being here. I hope I can live up to the introduction. but is there a more important reason to take time out to do shows with people like yourself at this time of year,

than to share in that excitement and share in that anticipation, all the preparation, all the projections,
