Say goodbye to your credit card

0:02

rewards. Greedy corporate megastores, led by

0:04

Walmart and Target, are pushing for

0:06

law in Congress to take away

0:08

your hard-earned cash back and travel

0:10

points to line their pockets. The

0:12

Durbin Marshall Credit Card Bill would

0:14

enact harmful credit card routing mandates

0:17

that would end credit card rewards

0:19

as we know it. If you

0:21

love your credit card rewards, tell

0:23

your lawmakers, hands off, my rewards.

0:25

Tell them to oppose the Durbin

0:27

Marshall Credit Card Bill. You

0:30

got a team, here's a word of the wise. You

0:32

want to dominate your league, go to football, guys. Football,

0:35

I'm living in a fantasy. Football, football,

0:38

got everybody mad at me. Football, football,

0:40

because every game I have, then we

0:42

want football. I got to be a

0:44

champion. Football, football, I'm living in a

0:47

fantasy. New faces in old

0:49

places? Wait, old faces in

0:51

new places? Whatever. We're talking

0:53

about players that

0:55

have moved in fantasy football gyms

0:57

need to think about the situation.

1:00

Let's talk about Austin Echler. I

1:03

want to know what he's going to do with the

1:05

commanders. It's great. He doesn't have to do all the

1:07

heavy lifting bloom. We'll get to

1:09

the commander's situation, but it

1:11

leaves a charger situation where they're going to run

1:13

the hell out of the ball if the two

1:15

former Ravensbacks can actually stay healthy

1:18

in Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins kicking around.

1:20

And I just thought it would be interesting to

1:22

look at these new situations for these old

1:24

players that we used to rely on so

1:26

heavily like Austin Echler. Yeah,

1:29

Cease, I think that the starting

1:31

remark I'll say here is what

1:34

we are doing other than just looking

1:36

for interesting things out of the trickle

1:38

of stuff coming out of OTAs, coach

1:41

comments and things like that is

1:43

thinking about change. And

1:46

this is why this is a great topic to

1:48

keep on our minds until training camp starts. Because

1:51

what you want to grapple with right now

1:53

is what do you think about these changes?

1:55

What do you think about what's going to

1:57

happen? As you said, there's new faces. And

2:00

we can talk about new faces in the coaching staff

2:02

in both of these places too, but

2:05

there's also Taking a stand

2:07

and then we wait for news auto

2:09

training camp We watch preseason and we revise and

2:12

adjust as we get new information So

2:15

in these back fields on

2:17

the Washington side I think the biggest question

2:19

with Eckler is how much do you think

2:21

he was affected by this ankle all year

2:23

last year? And we remember this is a

2:26

guy we were debating question McCaffrey or Dawson

2:28

Eckler a year ago Is

2:30

he really falling off that much? Apparently

2:32

you could say it doesn't matter whether he's fallen

2:34

off that much because you look at his salary

2:36

and you look at Brian Robinson And remember

2:39

Brian Robinson was a player that the joke

2:41

was oh I accidentally took Brian Robinson in

2:43

the first round I said a B. John

2:45

Robinson Actually, I'm glad I did for a

2:47

good part of the year last year And

2:49

he was getting more involvement in the

2:52

passing game and you could easily see

2:54

Austin Eckler having Antonio Gibson role type

2:56

sized role in this offense Which

2:59

means that Robinson is the guy you want and look

3:01

they're both going in the eighth ninth round You're

3:04

probably not gonna hit a home run with either

3:06

these guys unless one of them goes down for

3:08

a significant part of the year But there probably is

3:10

gonna be at least one winner how big of a

3:12

winner It's gonna depend on what you think about Cliff

3:14

Kingsbury and Jayden Daniels and their ability to get this

3:17

offense To jump out on people

3:19

and put them in return about pace. I think

3:21

you're gonna see a faster paced offense and It

3:24

could be an offense well, maybe they're both winners if

3:26

this is a good offense on the

3:29

Chargers side It's a little more straightforward

3:31

as far as yeah, they're gonna run

3:33

around the ball We have Gus Edwards

3:35

who's kind of the default option JK

3:37

Dobbins Who when

3:39

healthy has been a really good

3:41

running back? He just hasn't been healthy Will he

3:44

ever truly be healthy again and then come on

3:46

even all we got to mention come on even

3:48

at all See how many times do

3:50

we look at these situations where you're like, well this

3:52

guy he's okay, but he's Upside

3:55

his cap. This guy could be good, but he never

3:57

stays healthy. Who's the other guy? Well in this case

3:59

the other guy a guy we really like, a

4:01

guy Matt Baldwin really liked, a guy a lot

4:03

of people really liked and said, who is my

4:05

sleeper running back? It's Kamani

4:07

Vidal out of Troy. So for them to

4:10

get him on the third day, would it

4:12

be surprising that even on merit, and I

4:14

say on merit of where Gus Edwards and

4:16

JK Dobbins are in their careers, pre-injury Edwards

4:19

and Dobbins, maybe they would blow Kamani

4:21

Vidal out of the water, but Kamani Vidal on a

4:23

team that wants to run, I think

4:26

he's the guy. And the idea should be again, who's

4:28

your favorite, or maybe some of these situations, you might

4:30

say none of them. But again,

4:32

if you think Jim Harbaugh is going to be

4:34

successful with a pretty good offensive line, got to Alt

4:36

in addition to the other guys they have there,

4:38

had Matt Patanti on the couch last week, he

4:40

said, hey, these guys are a good fit for Harbaugh

4:42

ball, these offensive linemen. Right. So

4:45

you want to be in on

4:47

these situations, which running back will you take

4:49

a stand right now, but remember to update

4:51

that for whatever information we get later this

4:53

summer. Yeah, Vidal might be the guy. Now

4:55

two things that I think of in this

4:57

situation is with a rookie quarterback, you're going

4:59

to face stack boxes and I love Jaden

5:02

Daniels and

5:04

running quarterbacks are going to open some things

5:06

up certainly, but I think of the Chargers

5:09

and with Justin Herbert, I know it's Harbaugh

5:11

ball, which I love

5:13

that alliteration blue, but

5:17

Herbert's going to back you up. And

5:19

I know the receivers, big question marks, whatever. I

5:21

got lad McConkie on my mutt team on Madden,

5:24

but like, I understand that,

5:26

but Herbert will back you up. So

5:28

if I'm thinking light boxes with Vidal

5:31

or Gus Edwards, that makes me pretty happy.

5:35

Yes. And maybe we're under something,

5:37

Justin Herbert in this passing game, this is an

5:39

aside because Jim

5:41

Harbaugh might want to run, but if the

5:43

team is behind in the second half, we're

5:45

going to see Justin Herbert. And we saw

5:47

there wasn't just

5:50

a complete lack of downfield passing

5:52

from JJ McCarthy last year at

5:54

Michigan. There is downfield passing and

5:56

Justin Herbert, perhaps Justin

5:58

Herbert, a la Josh Allen sees

6:00

if he's in a situation where everything is

6:03

on him. Maybe you

6:05

could see some different parts of his play come

6:07

out. You know, Jim Harbaugh is a good offensive

6:09

coach. Look at what happened. Uh, whenever Colin Kaepernick

6:11

was a quarterback on a Jim Harbaugh team, he

6:14

got some incredible offensive football out of him. And

6:16

that was with Greg Roman, who's

6:18

offensive coordinator. Uh, Greg Roman. So,

6:22

you know, these guys have made some beautiful music

6:24

together in the past with a piece of quarterback

6:26

that wasn't nearly as talented a passer as Justin

6:29

Herbert. Well, let's talk about beautiful music and beautiful

6:31

hair from Joe Burrow, but that's for another show.

6:35

I don't care. You

6:38

need to get that style on. See? Exactly. Exactly. I'd have

6:40

to cut my hair though. I don't know if I want

6:42

to do that. Joe Mixon, Zach Moss. Now

6:46

out of Houston, we keep hearing this Damien

6:48

Pierce stuff. I was like, he's got an

6:50

average over three yards a carry before I

6:52

get real excited about Damien Pierce. Um, you

6:54

know, okay. So Mixon's there. We've talked about

6:56

the Houston offense a couple of weeks ago.

6:58

It's very exciting. Obviously, CJ Stroud, et cetera,

7:01

et cetera. But Joe Mixon, the

7:03

guy that replaces him, Zach Moss. What's

7:05

one of these situations you put in your chips on? I

7:09

look at both of

7:12

these guys as potential winners. Um,

7:14

with Houston, I'm afraid we've seen

7:16

Damien Pierce in Bobby Sloak's offense.

7:19

And we saw Devon

7:22

Singletary in Bobby Sloak's offense, who was

7:24

pretty successful. And instead of

7:26

bringing back Devon Singletary, this team traded for Joe

7:28

Mixon and most importantly gave him an

7:30

extension. And you

7:33

might say Joe Mixon's on decline. He doesn't

7:35

have the burst. He's

7:37

not as dangerous in the passing game as he

7:39

used to be. But we

7:41

are looking at the Texans with CJ Stroud

7:43

with the addition of Staphon Diggs with the

7:45

tackle combination of Laramie Tunstall and Titus Howard.

7:48

Some reinforcements on the interior offensive line. We'll see

7:50

how that works out. This looks like

7:53

potentially one of the premier offenses in the league. And

7:56

history shows us that running back

7:58

into being a compiler position, you just show

8:00

up, take your touches and

8:02

the touchdowns will come and

8:05

the yardage will come. Uh, so

8:07

Damien Pierce isn't really that much of a threat

8:10

here. They like Joe Mixon. Joe Mixon, I think

8:12

from a fantasy profile, cease is

8:14

typically should be a third round

8:16

running back. I mean, that's kind of

8:19

the general value of a running back that is

8:21

a lead running back, even an aging lead running

8:23

back in, uh, potentially

8:26

top of the league, top

8:28

five offense Joe Mixon

8:30

right now in the late fifth round, uh,

8:33

over underdog. And I don't think there's an

8:35

arbitrage play here. I think if Joe Mixon isn't good,

8:37

if he really is declining, then I don't

8:40

think Damien Pierce is arbitrage play. I just think that,

8:42

well, he bore for CJ Stroud and company, but

8:45

on the Cincinnati side, we have to ask

8:47

ourselves some questions about Zach Moss because Zach

8:49

Moss, you have to ask yourself

8:51

also, why is it these Buffalo running backs do so much

8:53

more once they leave Buffalo? These

8:56

in the case of Singletary and Moss and Moss revived

8:59

career in Indianapolis for a good time

9:01

early in the season before Johnson Taylor

9:03

was back or back up to speed,

9:05

he was among if not the leading

9:07

rusher in the NFL. Uh,

9:10

so he can take that down to Cincinnati. Also a

9:12

very good offense. Maybe he at this point physically has

9:14

even more to offer the Joe Mixon. He can take the

9:16

opportunity Joe Mixon. And I, and then the other part

9:18

of this is what do you think about Chase Brown?

9:21

Eh, you know, I don't see Chase Brown as

9:23

someone who takes over a backfield. I think Chase

9:25

Brown brings something to a backfield

9:27

that only Chase Brown can bring, which is that

9:29

ability to take a screen pass and turn into

9:32

a touchdown. Right. His ability to provide vertical speed

9:34

and a true change of pace from a rugged

9:36

runner like Zach Moss, but Zach Moss has good

9:38

hands out of the backfield. Zach Moss has good

9:40

feet. Zach Moss is obviously going to be the

9:42

goal line option. So I think

9:44

this is a potential, a big win. And

9:47

again, I don't see if you think Zach

9:49

Moss turns back into a pumpkin gets hurt.

9:52

Basically like he was all the time in

9:54

Buffalo. I don't know

9:56

that Chase Brown is going to be that guy,

9:59

but either way. Zach Moss is someone

10:01

right now that is available

10:03

in fantasy drafts. I'll see some looking and I

10:05

have to scroll it. It's 92nd. Wow.

10:09

Yeah. I like that price tag. Yeah.

10:13

I think what you're going to find as we step

10:16

through these running back situations is there's a lot of

10:18

value of running back. You don't have to go running

10:20

back early this year because when you get to the

10:22

5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th round, you're going to like,

10:25

as I always like to say, different people

10:27

might like different running backs. But there's

10:29

going to be someone for you in those rounds. Yes.

10:31

Someone for you for sure. And that's where

10:33

I think with Zach Moss, the value is

10:35

just too much there. The

10:37

opportunity is too much there. We'll see.

10:40

We'll see. Training camp, preseason. We're collecting

10:42

the drum beats. We're listening ear to

10:44

the ground. And you know I love

10:46

Howie Roseman. You

10:48

know I do it. So Saquon

10:50

Barkley versus Devin Singletary. Let's

10:53

talk about this in running backs that are replacing

10:55

each other. Well,

10:57

Saquon on a much better

11:00

team and the

11:02

Giants problem. Hey, there's Singletary who's

11:04

flashed away from Buffalo. I don't

11:07

know how much flashing's there with Drew Lock

11:09

or Daniel Jones. Barkley,

11:13

I can understand having

11:15

– it's hard to be lukewarm about

11:17

Barkley, right? Either you think that –

11:19

because look, Barkley was going – okay.

11:23

Barkley is in the best offense

11:25

he's been in his entire career. And

11:28

a team paid

11:30

him top of the

11:32

line running back money that never pays

11:35

running backs. So

11:38

he's going later than he was going last

11:40

year in the Giants offense, which we all

11:42

knew was not going to be a very

11:45

good offense. So either you think – and

11:47

he didn't do great for us last

11:49

year in fantasy football. But either you think

11:51

it doesn't matter. You can take

11:53

Barkley out of a poor offense and he's just

11:55

a poor producer at this point. And

11:57

then you're out on him or you can say, well,

11:59

he's – It was his surroundings,

12:02

and you put him in this offense, and

12:04

there's hints to I don't think we

12:06

might see 15 push-push

12:08

touchdowns from Hurts when you have a Barkley

12:11

on the roster. So

12:13

Barkley could easily finally be the fantasy

12:16

football running back that everybody thought he was going

12:18

to be at some point in his career. It

12:20

just took a better team to be on a

12:22

better team, a good offense. Not that

12:26

– I don't think that Barkley's the kind

12:28

of guy that you think is always going to go down

12:30

and miss most of the season or miss time, but you

12:32

know, I mean, well, Shipley's interesting there. Let's just put that

12:34

aside. Will Shipley is

12:37

a really good receiving running back. They took him in the

12:39

fourth round. That's a significant investment at running back in the

12:41

draft, honestly. So if

12:43

you hate Barkley, you're like, never. I wouldn't think Barkley

12:45

was there in the third round. You might

12:47

want to consider Shipley later. Let's

12:50

watch and hear how he's doing in camp. I

12:52

think he could probably overtake – he has

12:54

a little more to offer than Kenneth Gamewell

12:56

I think even though Gamewell's preestablished. But you

12:58

look at the Giants side seats, and similar

13:00

to the Chargers in so much as okay,

13:02

you've got Devin Singletary, all

13:04

these out producers' expectations. They gave him

13:06

starter money for this year. You've

13:10

got the running back that's your

13:12

Eric Gray, I think. That's

13:15

a good all-around back. Lots of speed. Yeah,

13:18

kind of like Chase Brown, like a

13:20

solid role-playing back, but what

13:23

about Tyrone Tracy? And

13:25

see, I don't think we have yet acknowledged

13:27

on this show that David Johnson retired. In

13:32

the annals of fantasy

13:34

football, the David Johnson story is a

13:36

wonderful story just because there's

13:39

so much in there, right? It's

13:41

just a ploy to motivate Tatum Bell, like

13:43

Booze Arians motivating a rookie, right? And then

13:46

we're all watching him, and then

13:48

finally when he's unleashed, especially

13:50

in that second year, like just everything

13:52

everybody could have ever dreamed of. Tyrone

13:55

Tracy is a running back that a

13:57

lot of very smart football people. Lance

13:59

Zierlein. See how many times do you see Lance

14:01

Zierlein come out with like a sleeper running backtake in the

14:03

draft? He's got better things to

14:05

do than throw crumbs to us

14:08

fantasy football people. And he said, this is Tyrone

14:10

Tacy. And he's a converted wide receiver. Again, David

14:12

Johnson vibes. It's

14:15

easy. He's the kind of talent. And

14:17

when I'm looking back at my rookie

14:20

dynasty draft boards, one

14:22

of the players I have a little remorse

14:25

or ask myself, should I have moved him

14:27

up, is Tyrone Tacy. Because if he hits,

14:29

he's going to hit maybe not the magnitude

14:32

of David Johnson, but he could be good

14:34

enough to take over his backfield. Kamani

14:36

Vidal, as good as Kamani Vidal is, he can be

14:38

the best running back in the current Chargers backfield, but

14:40

he's not the kind of running back that makes you

14:42

say, okay, we have our running back position settled

14:45

now. Tyrone Tacy has

14:47

the all-around skill set and the physical traits

14:49

and the upside as a player because he's

14:51

just learning the position to be

14:53

that guy. Who

14:56

can be the guy? And this

14:58

one is, I don't know, bittersweet

15:00

bloom. It's just going

15:02

to be interesting to not see Derek Henry

15:04

in the Titans uniform. So

15:07

our final running back situation to discuss today,

15:09

it is the audible. Make sure to like,

15:12

comment, share, subscribe. All those

15:14

good things help us out on YouTube. Tony Pollard

15:16

versus Derek Henry. I'm not

15:18

exactly sure what Will Lewis is going to look like

15:20

this year. I'm not predicting much. I

15:23

know that with Baltimore, they're talking about

15:26

maybe not necessarily a pitch count or

15:28

snap count. There's your baseball

15:30

talk bloom. Yeah. But

15:32

like, you know, they'll pick and choose.

15:34

Henry will be the closer. Isn't that

15:36

what was a Harbaugh? Who said that?

15:38

Recently I commented on our newswire at

15:40

football guys, like, they're going to use

15:42

Derek Henry as a closer. Okay. They

15:45

can use him as more than that as well. But

15:48

with Lamar Jackson, they're running around. How much does

15:50

that take off of Henry's plate? How

15:53

much of a closer can he be for a team that

15:55

should be closing out a lot of games? So

15:57

Tony Pollard versus Derek Henry. Yeah.

15:59

This is one of those like, you

16:02

gotta make fantasy decisions. Can't ride two

16:04

horses, one ass sugarplum. Sorry,

16:06

Joe. So make a decision. Right?

16:10

Right, come from the, go

16:13

number two or get off the pot. Sorry, Joe. You

16:16

got a choice. You gotta make a... If you

16:18

do not choose, you still have made a choice.

16:22

Anyway, this is a

16:24

fun one again, because we're doing

16:26

some comparisons of situations and

16:28

running backs at the same time. And

16:31

I like, again, my article came out

16:33

last week, 1080p values that just

16:35

don't make sense. Okay. And

16:37

I think Derek Henry is another one that just

16:40

don't make sense, because he was going in the

16:42

late second last year with Tennessee

16:44

that we all knew had the worst offensive line

16:46

in the league. Like, it was like

16:48

the gap from 31 to 32 was that massive,

16:50

right? Like,

16:52

if you're making offensive line rankings 2023, if Tennessee is not 32,

16:55

then we just no tear up

16:57

the rankings, the person who knows what they're talking about. Derek

16:59

Henry was running behind that line. And guess what? Derek Henry didn't

17:01

look bad. He didn't look like an aging running back. He didn't

17:03

look like a flying running back. Given

17:06

the opportunity he had in this offense that

17:08

was in transition at quarterback, didn't have almost

17:10

anything to work with at wide receiver, DeAndre

17:12

Hopkins, whatever. Like, you can't make a passing

17:14

email with just DeAndre Hopkins unless you have

17:16

Kyler Murray running around. So

17:20

you look at him then going to Baltimore,

17:22

which is a dream situation. Because

17:24

he's our heart's shudder and fear.

17:27

That's the bitter part of the bittersweet. Because

17:31

this is a hand and glove fit. Even

17:34

him, even him taking more carries out

17:37

of the pistol and shotgun

17:39

can be in this, in

17:41

this offense could be very

17:44

scary. Because what do we know about Derek

17:46

Henry? Oh, once you get to the second

17:48

level, especially if it's a defensive back,

17:50

I mean, that's it. You know, I mean, if

17:52

you, if that guy doesn't bring down Derek Henry

17:54

in the open field, look

17:56

out. He's going to get a lot of

17:59

those opportunities to create those lookouts. So yes in the

18:01

third round, so I said you don't have to

18:03

take running back early, but I don't have a

18:05

second round. Take one partily if you're a believer.

18:07

Third round, Derek Henry. Yeah, I'm a believer,

18:09

especially if you look at the wide receivers. You want a

18:11

Texans wide receiver, which one? The choice

18:13

is DJ Moore, now with Keenan Allen and

18:16

Roma Dunesay. Some of the wide receivers in

18:18

that same range are like, I don't know,

18:20

but I know about Derek Henry. And

18:24

put a pin also on Rashin Ali, who they really

18:26

liked. The Ravens really, really

18:28

liked Rashin Ali. Keep that in mind

18:30

because he could be kind of a Justice Hill type,

18:34

as Keenan Mitchell, who they also really like, is coming

18:36

back from an ACL tear. On

18:39

the Tennessee side, I'll tell you what fascinates me, Cease.

18:41

I asked Matt Patanti about

18:44

offensive line coaches because

18:46

of course you hire Brian, you get to dad, Bill,

18:50

in tow. And I love,

18:52

you know, being around football people,

18:54

football guys. Matt Patanti brought up

18:56

– I want to echo this point he brought up

18:58

on the couch. The nice thing about bringing along Bill

19:00

Callahan with his son Brian is you don't have to

19:02

worry about infighting in the

19:04

coaching staff, where what if Bill, an offensive

19:07

line, outshines offense? Well, if it's a different

19:09

head coach, you know, Brian

19:12

Dable or something, well, maybe Brian Dable gets

19:14

fired and Bill Callahan is an interim head

19:16

coach candidate. But you

19:18

know Bill's going to pull completely with his son.

19:20

There's not going to be any sort of infighting.

19:23

And he said in his model,

19:25

he gives points values, one to five for

19:27

offensive line coaches. Bill

19:29

Callahan, he said, is a six. And

19:33

it's not just his

19:35

scheme and his success over the years. It's his

19:38

ability to turn offensive linemen that

19:40

other coaches couldn't do as much with into

19:42

solid offensive linemen. This is the job for

19:44

him. So I

19:46

am open to the idea that Bill Callahan makes

19:48

this offensive line mediocre, middle

19:50

of the league at least from the 32nd,

19:53

clearly 32nd, and they got J.C. Latham. They

19:57

got their right tackle. They got their mauler. Maybe

20:00

it makes things easy enough for Will Levis that we have

20:02

like a Daniel Jones kind of year where it's like, is

20:04

he good? You know,

20:06

this office was pretty – I mean

20:08

it overachieved. But then unlike Daniel Jones,

20:10

he's got Calvin Ridley, okay? He's

20:13

got DeAndre Hopkins now as a – in

20:16

tandem with Calvin Ridley. Oh, okay. And

20:20

then you have these two interchangeable

20:22

backs, and they're going around the

20:24

same point in the draft as those Washington backs. So again,

20:27

like maybe you don't like the Washington situation, maybe like Tennessee

20:29

situation better because with Tony Pollard,

20:32

what did we want from him last year? A

20:34

true running back one opportunity, and he got that

20:36

and it was a flop. And

20:39

it's reasonable to say as a hypothesis,

20:41

well, maybe Dallas' handling of him was

20:43

right all along, and he's a complimentary

20:45

back, and that's how you're going to get the best out

20:47

of him. And you could probably say the same thing about

20:49

Taijai Spears. You don't want to give Taijai Spears 300, 300

20:51

free touches in a year. So

20:54

you get the most out of these backs.

20:56

They're interchangeable. They – if

20:58

this offense overachieves, again, like the

21:00

Washington offense, they could both

21:02

overachieve. So do you want a Tennessee

21:04

back? Do you want a Washington running back around the

21:06

eighth, ninth round of your draft? Which offense like better?

21:09

Which quarterback? Which offensive coordinator? Which offensive line coach? All

21:12

these things matter, and you're priming

21:14

your brain as the torrent of

21:17

news out of training camp is going to come and

21:19

how to sort through it and help you make better

21:21

decisions. Do you know what Taijai Spears can be? He

21:25

can be Tony Pollard. Yeah, with Dallas.

21:28

He wanted. Yeah.

21:30

He'll be the guy like he's behind the guy,

21:32

but he's the better guy. Right, right. That's

21:35

what Spears is. So we

21:37

will watch their careers with great

21:39

interest. Bloom, I'm

21:41

going to watch on the couch this week with

21:43

great interest because you have a very special guest.

21:46

Yes, not on Wednesday because when it's

21:48

very, very important people, we meet them

21:50

wherever we can. And then on Thursday,

21:52

I'm going to be recording. The plan

21:54

is to record with USA

21:56

Today editor all-time.

22:01

See, so there's like a Mount

22:03

Rushmore of alternative football coverage. Doug

22:07

Ferrara is on that Mount Rushmore. One thousand percent.

22:09

Doug Ferrara is like, you know, if you don't

22:11

know the name football outsiders, if that doesn't mean

22:13

anything to you, look it up. Analytics,

22:18

BFF, etc., etc., none

22:20

of that stuff in our

22:22

community comes without football outsiders,

22:24

without people like Doug Ferrara. Like Tenier,

22:26

we talked about when we try to

22:28

hopefully get him lined up on the

22:30

couch during the slow season, which

22:33

is the time we can actually stretch out

22:35

and talk some football. And the urgency of

22:37

drafts and lineup setting isn't hanging over us.

22:39

So I like the slow season because it

22:42

means we get to talk to some very,

22:44

very smart people on the couch. I

22:47

like that we have three YouTube channels

22:49

23:53

Greedy corporate megastores led by Walmart

23:55

and Target are pushing for law

23:57

and Congress to take away your

23:59

hard-earned cash back and travel points

24:01

to line their pockets. The Durbin

24:03

Marshall Credit Card Bill would enact

24:05

harmful credit card routing mandates that

24:07

would end credit card rewards as

24:09

we know it. If you love

24:12

your credit card rewards, tell your

24:14

lawmakers, hands off my rewards. Tell

24:16

them to oppose the Durbin Marshall

24:18

Credit Card Bill.
