| 0:15.4 | definitely do know which week we're in. I was telling Ryan before we started. I've been sick. I've |
| 0:19.6 | got some stuff going on behind the scenes that have had me a little bit distracted here this week, but I think we're in. I was telling Ryan before we started. I've been sick. I've got some stuff going on. |
| 0:26.0 | Behind the scenes that have had me a little bit distracted here this week, but I think we're kind of rounding into form. |
| 0:33.0 | It was good to read through Ryan's notes and see that a lot of the matchup things that he had noted, like were reflected in my rankings. |
