Today we're sacrificing a live chicken. Oh, wait, wait, wait, no, we're not doing that.

We're not doing that. We're looking at the week ahead. Welcome to the fantasy NBA today podcast,

the sports ethos presentation hosted by yours truly, Aaron Bruske, FSWA Hall of Famer Steve, Dr. A,

Alexander. We got Mark Camero in with us and a live chicken.

We're going to sacrifice that thing because we need all the help we can get.

But before we do that, let's say hello to our sponsor.

So it's a lot. It's this way every year. This is part of the game. It's our, that's our,

our job over here to navigate through this and get you guys to the wins that you guys need.

So we're going to get into all of that. But guys, guys, how are you? Mark, it's been a bit. It's been a couple weeks. How have you been lately? And what are you up to?

I've been good, Aaron.
