NFL Trade Talk, Myles Garrett and AJ Brown, NFL News, NFC South Preview, Titans, Texans
Matthews, as I say, every once in a while when I uh you know do this show, because I kind of modeled this uh sports talk show after him and the way he used to do things back many years ago when I used to listen to him in uh high school with the guest every night on I think it was 1180 a.m. in Rochester, New York. But I said it'd be back right away uh for those who uh listened to the back-to-back episodes. Um and by the way, I know we're just starting this episode. Um I haven't checked the emails yet to hear you guys' whole uh responses of uh the host's uh baseball play days of the the uh story he just told on the uh episode just prior to this one, 552. This is 553. Um now there was all kinds of uh NFL action last week, and I have been on here on the show to talk about it. And hopefully at the end of this, if there's time, we can start to begin our breakdown of our over and unders for the 2026 season. Now, you know, as some may know, we are inside 100 days before the NFL season starts, and we are 14 Sundays away from week one. Yeah, that's right. Just 14 Sundays, folks. We're that close. And now June 1st uh has happened uh during the week, and everybody was excited that June 1st started because everybody couldn't wait to finally find out what was going to happen with AJ Brown, whether uh the Eagles were actually gonna trade him to a team or was he really gonna get traded to New England. So everybody's just sitting around waiting for that trade to happen, and then bam! Miles Garrett dealt to the LA Rams. So a year ago, Miles Garrett requested a trade. Cleveland rewarded him with $40 million a year contract. And after that, everything was all good. He two shoes, he did a play of the year, he broke the sack record with 23 sacks, one defensive player of the year, said he loves being in Cleveland. Year later, him and his 125 and a half sacks dealt to the Rams for a 2027 first round pick, Jared Verse, and a 2029 third-round pick. That's what the Rams gave up to get Miles Garrett. Now, Cleveland wouldn't have made the deal unless Jared Verse was in the package. They wanted a significant player in return. So they were all about the trade, giving up Myles Garrett, but they wanted a player back also. They just didn't want picks. And the Rams were offering more picks, but Cleveland held their stance, and they said that they wanted Miles Garrett and to be gone. So they held their stance and they got Jared Verse in return. Jared Verse himself was a first-round pick of the Rams. So not only do they give up the high salary Miles Garrett to Cleveland Browns, who's gonna be 31, who may have had his best season, not gonna have a better season than he had, right? I mean, that's that's what you're that's what you're saying if you're the Cleveland Browns. You're you're saying to yourself, he's not gonna have that great of a season again. He's not gonna beat 23 sacks. He's not gonna have another defensive player of the year season. So let's get what we can for him. So they give up his $40 million salary per year. They get a first-round pick back, they get Jared Verse back on it, who's still on his rookie deal that he signed, and they get a 2029 third-round pick that turns into a first-round pick if the Rams decide to deal Myles Garrett to an AFC North team. So, imagine that. If the Rams are dumb enough to deal Myles Garrett away after a couple years, he ends up at an AFC North team. That third round pick becomes a first round pick for the Cleveland Browns. Less seed, right? We all know his deal. General manager of the Rams. F those picks. That's what he says all the time. They surrendered two first-round picks for Matthew Stafford. They surrendered two first-round picks for Jalen Ramsey. They gave up a whole first-round pick just to draft Ty Simpson this year, where they could have added a significant player who could have played right away. But instead, they wasted the first-round pick and drafted a quarterback who might not even see the field for two years because that's because Matthew Stafford recently just signed a $50 million a year extension. He's going to be with the Rams for two more seasons. So instead of the Rams, which is the whole confusing part of this thing, this past draft, they could have drafted a player with that 14th pick who could have stepped on the field right away and played. They could have got a top 14 player in the draft. And instead, they drafted Ty Simpson. And then instead, they trade away their 2028 or 2027 first-round pick for Myles Garrett. They could have actually had another player if they were already thinking of doing that. They could have had another player to go along with Miles Garrett, top player. So that's the most confusing thing about uh what the Rams are doing. But clearly, after this move, there's they're telling you right now, the Rams, we're all in. We're all in on 2022. We're going for it. We're the team that's gonna represent the NFC in the show. There's no stopping us. That's what that Rams are telling people. Regardless of what you think, you know, you know, if Miles Garrett is really gonna be that big of a factor. And again, you know me, we've done this before on this show, where we broke down these sack guys by age of their production. Very rarely after the age of 31, does these guys that go after the quarterback end up having a season where they have more than 15 sacks? I think when we did that, when we did that whole review and we had that whole breakdown, I think it was what three players have done it? Three. Of course, Reggie White. But three players have gotten over 15 sacks when they've reached the age of 31. Well, Miles Garrett be able to get will he be able to get past 15 sacks. Now everybody's saying, of course he's gonna. Because when he played with Cleveland, Cleveland was always behind. And the use of Myles Garrett wasn't to his full potential because the Browns were always behind, and the other team was just running the football, trying to take time off the clock to get off the field with a victory. So Miles Garrett was kind of a non-player late in the third and fourth quarter in many Cleveland Browns games because teams didn't throw the ball that much. So Miles Garrett couldn't tee off and go after the quarterback. Now that he's gonna be on the Rams, everybody's thinking, well, the Rams are gonna have tons of leads in the fourth quarter. Miles Garrett's gonna be unleashed. He's gonna be able to go after the quarterback. I don't know. Miles Garrett's a pretty big guy to me. Wouldn't that mean that being on the field a lot more snaps defensively means he's gonna be a lot more tired and he wouldn't be out there as much? Yeah, think about it. Right? What makes you think that he wouldn't be out there that much, right? I mean that's just my opinion. But people think that Myles Garrett are gonna get 25 sacks. I I I can't wait to see what the William Hill posts. I hope the William Hill post uh a single season sack total for Myles Garrett, I would say bet the on it. Now here's the other thing Myles Garrett, because he's now gonna be playing in California, and because of the he has 177.9 million left on his contract that he signed with Cleveland. So now that he's moving to California and is going to be playing under the Rams, listen to this. 23.7 million of it is going to state taxes, and 4.2 million of it is going to FICA. After all that, Miles Garrett's gonna have about 77 million left. Oh, I know, poor Miles Garrett, I know, I know. Only 77 million. But still, you sign that big of a deal, that big of a contract, and you only end up with losing 100 million of it because you got traded to the to the Rams, which lives in a state with high taxes. I'm not saying you should feel bad for this guy at all. I'm not saying that at all. No, no, no, no. The host isn't showing any sympathy for Miles Garrett losing all that money for taxes. I'm just saying some of these athletes who you know go after these big contracts, go after these big free agent deals, they think about that stuff. They think about playing for teams in Florida, Texas, uh, Tennessee, uh, you know, Nevada, where there is no state tax, where taxes are lower. Some of these guys think of that. So Miles Garrett's all happy, all smile in a smile, you know, ear to ear, uh, you know, being traded there because now he's on a winning team. He can't be too happy that he's losing that kind of money. That's that's all I'm saying. And then we had to hear, of course, the whole talk of Aaron Donald now thinking about coming out of retirement at 35 years old to play along with Miles Garrett. Okay, let's let's stop this right now. Could Aaron Donald come back and play football at age 35? Absolutely he could. I'm not saying he can't. Could Aaron Donald get on the field and be the same kind of player he was three years ago? Absolutely not, he's not going to. Absolutely he would not be the same player. Absolutely not. So stop kidding yourself that Miles Garrett, I mean that Aaron Donald would be the same type of player he was three years ago. There's no way. I know people say he's always been staying in shape, he's in great shape, but he's not in football. He's not in football store. You just can't, you just can't step on a football field and play at that high level after sitting out that many seasons. Now he may shine and have some moments and some flashes where he's Aaron Darnold of, you know, four or five years ago. Yeah, sure. Can he maintain that the way he played for a whole game? No, he can't. Whether they were gonna uh, you know, whether he does come back and they were to rotate him in at certain spots, okay, fine. But I don't know how all that works, too. Weren't they paying him a lot of money? How does that play into the salary cap for the ram? How are they able to afford him if he's retired? How does that come back on play? Wouldn't he want some kind of better compensation if he's coming all the way back and playing? I bet you, I bet you Aaron Donald's gonna flirt with it, mention it to the press, get everybody excited in the media, get people talking about it, and then we'll wait and see whether somebody gets injured, and that he needs to come back and play. I bet you it's gonna be one of those scenarios with Aaron Donald. That maybe, you know, after a little bit of time of seeing and scoping out what's happening during the season, maybe he comes back and plays the second half of the season after the Ravs really need him. But we'll we'll see. We'll see. We'll see what happens. We'll see what happens with that. And of course, the other big uh NFL news that happened with the June uh 1st uh coming around was finally AJ Brown got traded to the New England Patriots for a 2028 first round pick, and you know, a third round pick. So finally, the Eagles got what they wanted. They wanted a first round pick for AJ Brown the entire time, and New England finally said, you know what? We're gonna do it, we're gonna give the pick, and we're gonna send him our future, and we'll put take AJ Brown, and he's worth the headache to us to get us on our team. Can they let Stefan Diggs go? So they didn't want to deal with him anymore, but they want to take on a new headache in AJ Brown. Mike Vrabel, of course, a coached him in uh, but here's the thing AJ Brown 29. You know what happens to these receivers when they turn 30. All of a sudden they just kind of lose it. And is A.J. Brown worth the headache to the New England Patriots? Now, of course, on New England, because they don't have any other top-knock receivers. Remember, Philadelphia had Devontae Smith, who took a lot of balls away. You know, New England's other best receiver, Keyshawn Boat. You know, we don't know how he's gonna factor in. We don't know what A.J. Brown thinks of him, but clearly A.J. Brown thinks that right away he's the top dog of the New England receivers, and he's gonna expect the ball to be coming to him all the time. Now, A.J. Brown's numbers when he played with Mike Vrainbull in Cincinnati. Uh, you know, 1,051 yards, eight touchdowns, 52 catches. The following year he had 1,075 yards, 11 touchdowns, 70 catches. His first year at the Eagles, or his last year with uh Tennessee before Bitt traded to Philadelphia, uh, he had 869 yards, five touchdowns, and 63 receptions. Then he had two great years with Philadelphia, where he had 1,496 yards with 11 touchdowns, 88 catches, and 1,456 yards with seven touchdowns and 106 catches. Then he kind of tailed off as uh Devontae Smith got more into the playbook, and Jalen Hurts uh and him kind of had a falling out. He only had 1,079 yards, followed by last year with 1,03 yards and seven touchdowns and 78 catches. So he's looking to uh revive his career uh where he's known to get those big yardages up there, close to 1,500 yards and you know, more than 10 touchdowns. So he's looking for that. Drake May, of course, throws a great deep ball. So he's looking at that. And I love how New England uh scoffs at the first round pick, too. Big deal. We we gave him a first round pick. We went to the Super Bowl. So we're just giving him the 31st, 32nd pick. I love how they act like they're always going to be in the Super Bowls moving forward. Like the first round pick. Uh, you know, trading the first round pick to Philadelphia is no big deal. First round pick, big deal. It's, you know, low 30 pick. Like they're so arrogant now because uh, you know, having uh one good run uh this past season, and you know, they may or may have gotten lucky. We don't know. We'll see how this season turns out. But I love the notion that the New England Patriots think that they're this almighty team now, and that they're gonna be in this deep playoff run going to Super Bowl streak again, like they had with Tom Brady, and giving up the first round pick is no big deal to them because it's just picks. They're trying to act like the Rams now, the way the Rams should throw out their first round picks. So we got two teams in the AFC East making wide receiver moves now. And both wide receivers are 29. New England, of course, making the move for AJ Brown, and Buffalo, of course, making the room for DJ Moore. What's with the J's? These guys training for the names with J's in them. Anyway, what 29-year-old receiver is gonna be more of an impact for their team this upcoming season? AJ Brown with New England or DJ Moore with the Bills? You want my opinion? I'm gonna say DJ Moore has a more impact on the team season than AJ Brown does. I think Drake May had a great season. Maybe he got lucky. Maybe he is truly that guy. We already know what we're getting with Josh Allen. We already know he can throw the ball all over the field. We already know he's gonna make the use of DJ Moore. I think Josh Allen is gonna find DJ Moore a lot more than Drake May is gonna find A.J. Brown. I know Josh McDaniels up there, offensive coordinator for New England. I know he's gonna, you know, work his magic and he does great with these type of receivers. He made Randy Moss great, he made Devontae Adams great in his season in Oakland. You know, he'll he'll he'll work A.J. Brown in there. He'll find ways to get A.J. Brown open. He'll find the mismatches. That's what Josh McDaniels does. That's why he's a great offensive coordinator and a terrible head coach. But, you know, Joe Brady's gonna do the same with DJ Moore, and Josh Allen is gonna be able to find DJ Moore. I think Josh Allen will be able to find DJ Moore more plays downfield than Drake May will be because of the way Josh Allen moves around in the pocket. But I think of the uh battle of signing the 29-year-old receivers, I think Buffalo and DJ Moore are gonna have more success than AJ Brown. Also, some other signings have happened. Another receiver, Drake London. Four years, $141 million with the Atlanta Falcons. He resigns and stays there. Well, you're name in the top five receivers in the league. You saying Drake London? If I ask you if we sit down and we're hanging out, hey, what's your top five receivers? Is Drake London one of those five? Is Drake London worth $40 million? Maybe not $40, but $30? Is he worth $30 some million dollars, Drake London? You're not saying you're not saying Drake London when he's a bigger top receiver. So I'm surprised the money that they shelled out for him. Now, the money they should be shelling out for someone is as B. John Robinson. Uh I'm sure he's gonna get his suit here. Uh that Drake London got his. What about Kyle Pitts? Don't you want to keep him? He had one of his best seasons last year. You're shelling out money to Drake London? Drake London? Four years, 141 billion. I I don't know. I would I would have let him walk, see what he could have done in free agency. You're no, you're not missing much with Drake London. That's just me. And maybe the coaching staff there, maybe Kevin Stefanski really thinks highly of him. And when he got there and can fit his him into his offensive scheme that he wants to run with Michael Penix and Tua there down in Atlanta. So, you know, maybe maybe he's got better use for him than I think he is. So uh we'll see how that ends up working out. Uh, of course, the Steelers. With uh keeping up their tradition of signing defensive players, uh, they gave Nick Herbig a four-year $100 million extension. Now, that goes on top of the money they're already paying TJ Watt at $41 million a year, and on top of the money they're already paying Alex Highsmith at $17 million a year. They are both edge rushers, and so is Nick Herbig. So that's the Steelers now have three edge rushers making $80 some million dollars a year. Three guys. And that puts their uh defensive total of what they're paying their defense for the 2026 million uh 2026 season at 193 million dollars. Can you believe that they're paying that their defense that much money? 193 million dollars going to that Steelers defense, which was ranked 26th in the league. Now they got a new defensive coordinator, Patrick Graham. Maybe he's gonna try some different things, maybe he's gonna mix things up, but man, 193 million. And hey, they haven't given Joey Porter an extension yet. He was gonna get big money. When he gets his extent, his extension, that defense is gonna be over 200 million a year. So the Steelers are number one currently in the 2026 season with $193 million defense. Ravens are $187, Bears at $177, the Giants at $174, and the Patriots at $169. Those are your top five defensive money programs right now in the NFL for defense. Those teams better be good. Man, boy, I Steelers are just stuck in the 70s, aren't they? Giving all that money to all those players on defense. However, they did sign Darnell Washington, their big tight end. You know, that guy's like 6'8, bowls people over. Uh, he ended up breaking his forearm at the end of last season, so he didn't have a full season, but they signed him to a four-year uh $42 million deal to keep him in Pittsburgh. So Darnell Washington and Pat Fryerbooth remaining with the Steelers and there's tight ends. Darnell Washington is a great blocking tight end. So I kind of like that. I kind of like that signing uh, you know, to uh be there. So uh another crazy signing for the Steelers. Steelers just handed out money, gave money to Chris Boswell uh recently, now Nick Herbig, now Darnell Washington, and like I said, Joey Porter, still the cub for the Steelers. Woof, man, man, oh man, this team just shelling out the money on that defense. I hope Mike McCarthy could turn that offense around. But who knows what 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers. Man, damn. Now, moving on as we do every now and then this time of year uh during the summer months, we move into the host over and under predictions for this coming NFL season. Now, we've done this on this show for five seasons now. Well, we've had a winning record every year. Now, we don't give out the 2025 record. I know some people know already know what it is. I know some people keep track of it at home because you email me. But we kind of we kind of tell the 2025 season and give the review as we do the teams from from you know for this year. So when we read a 2026 team and we go over the stats, the players and everything, and the schedule and the prediction, we give the 2025 over and under and whether the host won it or not. So I like to do that and keep it suspensive, whether we could get to another winning record. That would be five years in a row. Now I'm gonna say this ahead of time. Did we have a winning record? Maybe, maybe not. It wasn't a great year last year for the over and unders for the host. Now, with that being said, let me remind all 2021 we were 21 and 11. 2022, we were 20, 10, and 2. 2023, we were 19, 10, and 3. 2024, we were 20, 11, and 1. Four years, 19 or more wins. Did 2025 produce 19 or more wins? Well, you're gonna have to follow along all summer to see in case you kept track of what the host did last year. So, with all that said, kicking off the 2026 season and 2026 unders, we're gonna start off with the Tennessee Titans. Their 2025 record was 3-14. Their head coach's new head coach, Robert Sala. Their quarterback was Cam Ward. He had 3,165 passing yards, 15 touchdowns to go along with seven interceptions. He had 410 rushing yards to go along with that. Their leading wide receiver was Chig Akorro with 56 receptions, 560 yards with two touchdowns. Their leading running back was Tony Pollard, 1,082 yards with four touchdowns. Their leading sacker was Jeffrey Simmons with 11. Their leading tackler was Cedric Gray with 164 tackles. Their offensive rank last year was 31st in the league. Their defensive rank was 21st. Their 2025 over and under was three and a half. They finished 3-14. The host had them going 7-10. Our first loss from last year in the 2025 season. We had the over on the Tennessee Titans, and they were under the three and a half. They've had back-to-back 3-14 seasons. Their odds to win the division this year plus 750. Their odds to win the conference plus 6,500. Their odds to win the Super Bowl plus 12,500. They're 2,026 over and under. 6.5, minus 110 to the over, minus 110 to the under. Their key additions, Wendell Robinson, four years 78 million. John Franklin Myers, three years 63 million. Alonte Taylor, three years 58 million. Carnell Float, three years 45 million. Their key departures were Chig Okinoya, their leading receiver, and Corey Levin. They drafted Carnell Tate, a receiver, Keldrick Falk, an edge rusher, and Anthony Hill, a linebacker, amongst their top picks. Their schedule. Now, as we go through the schedule, I know they have Robertson. I don't know if he's gonna help. Cam Ward improved in his sophomore year. We know he's gonna make the defense better. They drafted a lot of defensive guys in the draft, including the two of the top three guys I just mentioned. They start off at home against the Jets. How fitting is this? They're at home, they open up against the Jets, a team Robert Selling is the coach and the idiot Aaron Glenn taking over for the Jets coming into Tennessee. I got them winning that. They play at home. Second game, lost. At the Giants, lost. At Baltimore, lost. Houston at home, I gave him a win. At Indianapolis, lost. Cleveland at home, win. At Cincinnati, lost. By week. Jacksonville at home win. At Dallas lost. At Jacksonville lost. Washington at home win at Detroit lost. Indianapolis at home win. At Oakland lost. Pittsburgh at home lost. At Houston lost. I got Tennessee going 6 and 11. That's over three and a half. They got to get over three and a half wins this year. Come on. That's got to be one of the easiest plays, I think. I think Tennessee is going to get over three and a half wins. Cam Warren in his second season, he's going to be better. He's going to be a little more mature. They got Robert Sala. You know this defense is going to be way better. They were 21st ranked last year, this defense. I think they're going to crack the top 15. I think they're going to do that. And their schedule isn't all that bad. There isn't a lot of really tough teams on this schedule. They don't play any primetime games. All their games are going to be on Sunday. So they're going to have quite their routine in hand, and they should be getting six wins out of this schedule. So Tennessee, I got a 6'11. Oh, I'm sorry. I goofed that up. They're over and I goofed that up. I'm sorry. I was looking at the 2025 over and under. Their 2025 is, let me, I gotta restink this now. They're 2020. I missed reading my sheet. They're 2026 over and under six and a half. I got six and eleven. So I got them going under six and a half. So I'm sorry, I misread that. Sorry, I won't happen again, folks. I'm sorry. I misread. What a way to start the over and under. I screw up the first sheet I'm reading. I'm sorry. Will they be three to half next year? Or from from the previous year? Yes. Can they get over six and a half? I don't know. I got them at six. I think Robert Sala uh will get this team back on track and get them off on the right foot. They do, like I said, kind of have that not that tough of a schedule. And bearing how these other teams play in the South, Jacksonville, Houston, and Indianapolis, maybe Tennessee can get over the six and a half wins. But I'm going to keep them at six. And I'm sorry about that. But we'll be better on this. Our next team up, the 2026 Houston Texans. Their 2025 record was 12-5. Their head coach is D'Amico Ryan. Their QB is CJ Stroud, 3,041 passing yards, 19 touchdowns, 8 interceptions. Their leading receiver is Nico Collins, 1,117 receiving yards with six touchdowns. Their leading running back was Woody Marks, 703 rushing yards with two touchdowns. Their leading sacker, Danielle Hunter, with 15. Their leading tackler, Azee Al Shear. Their offensive rank was 18th. Their defensive rank was number one. Their 2025 over and under was 9.5. The host had them going 10-7. So a winner. Odds to win the division plus 135. Odds to win the conference plus 950. Odds to win the Super Bowl plus 2,000. They're 2026. Over and under is 9.5. Minus 130 to the over. The key additions, Braden Smith, two years 25 million. Wyatt Teller, two years 16 million. Reed Blankenship, 3 years 24 million. David Montgomery from the Detroit Lions. Their key departures, Joe Mixon and Jimmy Ward. They drafted Kalen Rutledge, an offensive guard, Caden McDaniel, defensive tackle, and tight end Markin Glenn. Now, to go along with all that, their schedule is a first place schedule. Remember, Houston, Texas finished in first place. They will now play a first place schedule. I'm sorry, they didn't finish in first. Jacksonville finished in first. I'm sorry. Houston was a wild card team. Excuse me. Let me rewind that. Houston was a wild card team. They are playing a second place schedule. Jacksonville was the first place team. They are playing the first place schedule. They open up against Buffalo at home. I got Houston Texans winning that game. Cincinnati at home the following week. Two tough teams back to back. I got them losing. At Indianapolis, lost. Dallas at home, win. At Tennessee, lost. At Jacksonville in London, lost. Giants at home win. They're bye. At San Diego, lost. At Cleveland, win. Indianapolis at home on Thursday night football, win. Baltimore at home, win. At Pittsburgh, Sunday night football, win. At Washington, win. Jacksonville at home, win. At Thursday night football loss. At Green Bay on Monday night football loss. Then they wrap up the season at home against Tennessee. I got Houston going 10-7, the same as they did last year. They're over and under for 2026 is nine and a half. Yeah, they screwed up this time. I got them over again their total. So I got Houston over the number. Look, Houston's got the best defense. They got practically everybody back. They gave Will Anderson big money in the offseason to remain their top edge rusher. They somehow got to fix CJ Stroud, which I think they're going to work on. They got David Montgomery from Detroit. He's a little older than I'd like to see for a running back, but he's got something to prove. He's going to come in. He's got Woody Marks as a backup. So it's not like he's going to be taking a bulk of the carry. You know, Nico Collins is steady. He's going to be there. You know, Dwight Schultz is a good tight end. They drafted more defensive guys, exactly what you're supposed to do if you're a defensive team. And, you know, they play a second place schedule. They didn't get screwed like Jacksonville and have the first place schedule. So they missed New England. They missed Denver. So, you know, they miss they're missing teams where they would have, you know, going up against, you know, the first place, those first place teams. They get the second place team of those divisions. So their schedule is very doable. You know, they're their other teams, their division, like we just talked about with Tennessee, aren't, you know, crazy to think about. I think Jacksonville is going to take a step back this year. I don't think they're going to go 13-4 again. I don't think they're going to play the way they did. So I think this is Houston's division to win. I don't think Daniel Jones and the Colts are going to do anything up there in Indianapolis. I think 10-7 will win this division. I think Houston will be over the nine and a half. So that's my prediction for the Houston, Texas. I think they will be, again, a playoff team, specifically because of that defense. Now, whether they can win playoff games will all go around the way CJ Stroud plays. So that's how I look at that. So that's how we're starting off our over and under predictions for the 2026 season. We're starting in the AFC South. If your case you're wondering, last year we started with the AFC, or I'm sorry, last year we started with the NFC West. So we're going completely on the other side of this year and start with the AFC South. So look for now, every episode, we'll be adding two teams from now until the start of the season. And of course, at the end of all this, we'll have our Super Bowl predictions. I hope everyone is enjoying the show. I hope everybody enjoyed uh, you know, everything we're doing so far. Again, you guys are great. New listeners every day, you know, expanding the show. I said you guys got to tell people. Hopefully, you guys are. Yeah, you want to hear some idiot talk about nonsense for 40, 45 minutes. Listen to this guy, the host, and listen to how bad of a baseball teammate he was uh years ago. Anyway, it's nice to be important, but more important to be nice. Thank you once again. As always, you know where to get the show by now. Steel DF72, Spotify, our High Rio, Google Podcasts, Podcast Neck, and of course, Amazon Music. And as always, it's nice to be important, but more important to be nice. I leave you with a little stone tower 3030-150, the name of this track. Have a good week, everyone.
