| 0:14.6 | What is up? |
| 0:15.7 | Welcome to another edition of the NFL fantasy football show. |
| 0:18.9 | It's me and your man, M.G. Marcus Grant, still vaccinated and dodging variants like Neo in the Matrix. |
| 0:24.6 | And somehow this morning, that feels a little bit more valid. |
| 0:28.6 | We got a big, busy, busy show for you today. |
| 0:31.6 | Producer Justin and the specialists alongside Michael F. Florio here. |
| 0:34.6 | You may have noticed we are at home. |
| 0:36.6 | Normally we are in studio for the Wednesday show. Florio, you are a little bit under the weather. We've confirmed, though, it is not COVID-19, so hopefully you are doing okay this morning.
