Hey, everybody. Welcome to MAGA Mondays. Look, I don't know if, uh, like, like me, maybe you watched the Knicks win the title, uh, over the weekend. It was, it was joyous in the Stein household, although I'm an ambivalent fan. But it, it reminded me of this moment, and I'm gonna do a little windup to get to Will here, so just bear with me. Well, in my youth, Michael Jordan was obviously king, and Michael Jordan famously had what, um, was known as the flu game in the finals, where he was stricken with the flu, uh, and he somehow managed to score, I believe it was 36 points. Believe it was against the Jazz, and there's this iconic image of Jordan sort of slumbering over and Scottie Pippen holding him up as he took him to the bench, and it stuck with me in, in forever. In, in my youth, I aspired to that type of greatness, to just overcome adversity and physical ill, to perform under pressure. I thought it was the personification of will. And which brings me to Will. Will has a cold, and this is his flu game. And folks are watching Jordan-esque greatness this morning as Will braves the elements, fights through the virus so that he can bring you the most bullshit and, and like nonsense from the internet for your guilty pleasure. So Will, thank you for doing this. I really appreciate it.

Well, thank you. That was a nice windup. Uh, as you were saying that, I was like, "Oh, that sounds kinda like me." [laughs] And then I realized it wasn't about me. So that's great.
