Quick word for our dear friends at Christopher Ward, the official watch partner of Men in Blazers. Now, many of you know Men in Blazers and Christopher Ward first came together through football. But what I genuinely love about Christopher Ward is what they're becoming here in America. They've expanded across the US. There's showrooms now in New York City, Chicago, Northern Virginia, Dallas, and more. They're building something really rare, real connection. They're not just selling watches, trying to foster community, places where people can gather to obsess over craftsmanship, design, engineering, and the stories we carry through time. I love these watches. They're precision-built, thoughtfully designed, proper mechanical craftsmanship. They're luxury watches at a real value price, and they somehow still feel deeply human and accessible. So whether you're already a watch obsessive or you're just curious, go and have a look. Visit a showroom or visit the website if not. Try one on, have a conversation. Christopher Ward, they're building something really special here in the United States. We're incredibly proud to have them alongside us in this community. Now, back to the football. You're listening to the Men in Blazers Media Network, Suboptimal Radio. The Pulitzer Prize-winning free kick Malik Tillman unleashed. How did you remember that moment?
