Happy Draft Week. I hope everybody's doing great. I'm in good mood today and I'll try

to put you in good mood. If you're not there already, I'm going to try to get you there.

Today's episode of the Ryan Racer LaPodcast on the Ringer Podcast Network is brought to you by State Farm.

Just like sports, the game of life is unpredictable. Talk to a State Farm agent and get a teammate who can help you navigate the unexpected.

Hmm, the unexpected. I don't think anybody thought a couple of months ago, hey, is the NFL going to do the entire draft online?

Didn't think that did you? Well, they are and we're going to get to that in today's open.

Get a teammate who can help you navigate the unexpected. Talk to a State Farm agent today. The plan for today, Trent Dillford.

Trent Dillford is going to join us. What did he actually say about Tua being better than Dan Marino? Tua against Joe Burrow.

Hey, are there any negatives with Tua? Because Trent's not only working with Tua, but he's raving about him.

And there was this quote about him saying he's better than Dan Marino. People lost their minds.

And then the best part about the media machine is that it's like, hey, well, he this quote exists. So therefore it had to have been said.

So now we're going to do segments off of the thing. And then it just, it's unbelievable how the stuff all snowballs.

And I don't really blame that many people because you're sitting there trying to put together a million different segments.

And you go, hey, what did you say? And I can't tell you the number of times I've done radio segments where I did the whole thing based on a piece of information.

And then somebody would hit me up later and be like, hey, did you actually look at that entire thing? So I tried to do that more and more as I go a little bit older.

But boy, it takes longer, right? And if there's one thing we don't like, it's when things take long.

But here's something we do like this week's open is about the workplace environment.

Because when we think about athletes, we still sometimes think about ourselves. And I think we do that with everything politicians, famous people.

I still feel like actors and actresses get a pass on everything. No one cares if they make a ton of money.

No one cares if they're really in a movie that bombs. They just move on to the next one.

Like if you miss a shot or you fumble in a massive game, that hangs around forever.

If you're in a just bomb of a movie that next summer, you might be in something good and no one really cares about the worst movie.
