We've got wide receiver ranks, and joining me, of course, is the one, the only, Pat Fitzmaurice, and my former awesome co-host on Fantasy Pros from a couple years ago, who I haven't done a show with in a little bit, Tara Roberts is in the house. Both of two of my favorite people. First off, Fitzy, uh, last time I saw you was in New Orleans, so it's a different conversation we're having now, but excited to get back into the ranks.
