0:00.0 | Howdy. I'm Ben Solac and this is the play sheet. This is a show about me being a football nerd. |
0:09.5 | Every single Wednesday, I'm going to grab something that happened on Sunday that I thought was super sick and show it to you with films, diagrams, and clips. |
0:15.3 | It's a lot of fun. Let's get into it. |
0:18.3 | The opening script. |
0:21.8 | Tua. Tua. |
0:23.6 | Tua folks. |

1:17.7 | How is Tua going to elevate his game to the next level? |
