Hey, hey, where you been, but got talk is about to begin, hey, hey, hey, hey, come on in.

Welcome back to your Tuesday book. I took Douglas Maurice, Nathan Baird, Stephen Means, not on purpose.

And I don't know if you guys want to hear this, not on purpose, but I slept for 12 hours.

So I missed everything that happened. I wake up. James's Williams is on Alabama's roster.

I'm delirious. I don't know what's happening. You know how it is. I mean, I slept like four hours,

the three, the three previous nights, you know, I didn't sleep 12 hours combined for three days.

And then I caught up all at once. And I also feel refreshed, but I also feel like an unfrozen caveman to some extent, right?

Nathan, I mean, when you sleep the 12 hours, the world passes you by, including James and Williams, you know, getting a new life, man.

There are plenty of nights where I should do that, where I should, you know, I'm going to bed at like, you know, one or two a.m.

And I should probably just turn the alarms off, but I'm always terrified at what could happen at 9 a.m.

So I'm up, I'm awake at 9 a.m. And then usually have alarms that go off like every half hour after that, even if I'm staying in bed, just because I have to keep checking to make sure something hasn't happened.

That is literally what biggest wordwriter is literally it's the moment you don't have those alarms is when something happens.

I'm living my best column this life, man. I don't know about news. I'll just come back four days later and I'll pine on it.

Let you guys wake up. I'm too old for this. I am too old. Nathan, what how old are you Nathan?

42. You're 42. That's still significantly younger than me. I'm 47. So that five years is a big difference.

You know, when I was in, when I was in sixth grade, you were in first grade. We wouldn't have been like hanging out. So like five years, 42 from 37 seems big to me.

I wish I could I wish I were 37. So yeah, Stephen loves when we do this when we were wishing we were in our mid 30s and Stephen's like mid 30s is like a grandpa to me.

So I mean, I just turned 27. So I'm getting there. I'm getting close.

So we'll get the James and Williams picking Alabama in a second and Kai Stokes, the latest Ohio State recruit, but it is it wipes me out like weekends like this.

Like big 10 championship game weekend bull stuff. Like when you have like the nights in a row where you're not sleeping and you're up in your weird hours.

Like I, it takes me more than like a day to recover. Like it's good. I'm not going to be back to normal. It's like Thursday.

Right Nathan, right? But are you are you with me? Are you in that old person realm with me? Are you like? No, no, no, no, no. I'm only 42. I can bounce back immediately.
