Speaker 1 (00:00):

Sports Radio. He played for a decade in the NFL,

(00:23):
multiple time Pro Bowler, and it has more catches than
any tight end in the history of the Washington football team,
which is saying something because they were great in the
seventies and eighties. He's Chris Cooley. Also, by the way,
I went to the same college as Jordan Love, Utah State.
If you're talented, the NFL will find you. They will

(00:43):
find you. And Chris Cooley now joining us live from Cody, Wyoming.
That look that looks like Cody, Wyoming. You got a
good hoodie on there. You got a log cabin thing
going on. How are you doing okay, Cavin going, I'm
doing great. It's always a pleasure to be on with you,
and we're doing awesome out here. That's fun watching the

(01:05):
draft and everything that's been going on lately and keeping up.
The internet makes it really easy, even though it's even
though it's pretty slow here. So let me ask you
my takeaway on the tight end position has never been
truly respected. It's always been like the last or next
to last in terms of payment. You know, Tony Gonzalez

(01:25):
was racking up huge touchdowns and yards and he wasn't
paid like a receiver. He was paid like a guy
who blocked. And so when Tebow says I want to
be a tight end, I think, oh boy, that's a
little disrespectful to the position, to the position as a
great tight end. You hear Tebo just wants to try
out as a tight end. What is your thought on that.

(01:45):
I don't have any problem with it. I think, first
of all, Urban Meyer and Tebow are very close, so
it makes sense that Urban would give his guy a shot.
Tibo's a heck of an athlete. You know, when I
look at this position, I watch it in a year out.
There's twenty guys that are good, there's ten that are outstanding.

(02:06):
But you get to the two and threes on a
lot of teams, and there's a lot of guys that,
in my opinion, shouldn't be on the field or are
just filling a role, and so can Tebow do that
and kind of find his way into things. Maybe we'll
find out there's a lot of nuance to the position. Yeah,
I mean, let's talk about that. A quarterback to tight
end transitioning. I mean, I just think to myself, Tim

(02:29):
Tebow hand in the dirt blocking a defensive end, That's
what comes to me. You better have his mouthpiece in.
I mean, what what what? What will be the one
or two things that are we don't talk about that
he's going to have to figure out. See, I just
don't know. If you put Tim Tebow's hand in the dirt,
it's almost like all of these new quarterbacks coming in
that have never played under center. You don't transition him

(02:51):
to a complete under center quarterback. To me, he's more
of an h back. If you want Tim Tebow to
play tight end for you, he's that move position. You're
putting him in a slot every once in a while,
you're putting him in the backfield. You're letting him kind
of move around. You're letting him stay in an up stance. Now,
as it comes to blocking, he's got a lot to
figure out there. Toughness, I think Tebow has and so

(03:14):
I appreciate that, and I think he'll have a chance there.
But you start talking about simple footwork and leverage and
understanding how defensive ends and outside linebackers play and where
you want to put your hands on him. What's your
hat placement needs to be, where your helmet placement needs
to be. All those little things that manipulate a defensive
end are things that guys pick up over time. And

(03:34):
we'll see maybe he can. I think he'll be an
okay route runner. I think I think he's athletic enough.
Quarterbacks can always catch very well. They catch more balls
than anyone else because everyone's got to throw it back
to him every time. That's a good point, A couple
of things to talk about. So some issues here Washington.
I've said they're the enigma in the league. So good defense,

(03:56):
playoff team, weak division. They should make it again. What
I wouldn't do at quarterback is get a gun slinger
who loses me games. I've out coached the team with
Ron Rivera and they get Ryan Fitzpatrick, and I think, no,
no, no no, just give me Teddy Bridgewater. I can win
eleven games with Teddy Bridgewater. My defense will keep us.
I mean Alex Smith didn't play particularly well went five
and one last year. Explain the Ryan Fitzpatrick's our guy

(04:20):
quarterback on this roster, because I don't get it, Colin.
I don't know if I totally get it either. And
that doesn't mean that I don't like Ryan Fitzpatrick. I
respect him. I think he's incredibly bright, he's intelligent, he
makes a ton of throws. I mean, amazingly enough. The
last couple of years is QBR has been really pretty high.
But I'm with you. I think this team is a

(04:43):
team that needs a quarterback. And I don't know is
Fitzpatrick this year? Is it maybe next year? But they
had a chance to move up and probably take a
guy where there was some talent around the quarterback. They
have a really or they have a very good defense.
They have great weapons with Terry McLaurin and Antonio Gibson
and Logan Thomas came on last year, and I think

(05:04):
you could have protected a young quarterback if you went
up and got him this year. It'll be interesting what
Fitzpatrick does in a Scott Turner offense. You know, watching
them last year, they didn't really take a lot of
shots down the field, and I didn't know if that
was all by designer, just not knowing if the quarterback
could do it. I mean, it was crazy watching Alex.

(05:25):
So I'll be interested if he could just play ball
control because that's really what the guy's gonna have to
do or needs to do if they want to win
eight games. So you were with Kyle Shanahan when he
was the coordinator in Washington. He is now the coach
of the Niners. What is Trey Lance? How complex is
the offense? How long does it take to master Trey

(05:48):
Lance master a Kyle Shanahan offense? You would know. I
think there's a ton to Kyle Shanahan's offense. But what
Kyle is going to do is slowly build around what
Trey Lance does very well. If you think back to
twenty twelve, they remastered the Kyle Mike Shanahan offense for
Robert Griffin and became a zone read type offense and

(06:11):
that was kind of pre Rpo. They'll take their time
with him. They'll get him in a lot of the
boot stuff where he's able to make you know, one
side of the field type reads, go top of the
progression down easy stuff there. Let him use his legs
if he needs to use his legs, and it'll be
a slow bill that, you know. I think back to

(06:33):
that offense with Robert and it was it was a
really successful offense which was changed completely. The only the
only hard thing for Robert was some of the third
down concepts and some of the third down defenses that
he faced or that he had to see. And I'll
never forget Kyle saying Robert, if you don't like it,
you're the checkdown. And Trey Lance has the ability to

(06:54):
do that. I mean it's he's not running into end
zones with penguins written in it, but he's playing against
real NFL dudes. I think he'll adapt okay, and Kyle
will do an excellent job slow playing it so he
understands it and plays within his grasp. You went to
the same school as Jordan Love. A couple days ago,
the GM of the Packers said he's got a long

(07:16):
way to go. Obviously, you want to support people from
Utah State where you went to school. But you know,
it's funny Jordan Love had thirty two college starts. That's Chris.
That's a lot. I mean, some of these guys Kyler
Murray was playing baseball half the time. He got fifteen.
He's got thirty two college starts, and they say, quote,
he's got a long way to go. That makes me think,
oh boy, maybe he wasn't a first round quarterback. Or

(07:38):
am I being too harsh? I think he has a
long way to go. Some of the intangibles make him
a first round quarterback. I haven't had a chance to
meet Jordan and play catch with Jordan. I mean, he's
a big kid, he has a big arm, he's smart,
he likes ball. But it was it's amazing, you know.
I was there his junior year where he I thought
he had an excellent year, and spending some time with

(08:00):
that coaching staff who's now at Texas Tech. They had
a lot of non play calls, just look to the
sideline and give the receiver a number, and sometimes it
wasn't even the entire group of receivers. And he switched
his senior year to a new staff and with Gary
Anderson as a head coach, and it was still, you know,
really simplistic. I thought he pressed his senior year. But essentially,

(08:22):
Colin he hasn't really run offense with language, and so
when you're talking about what is Matt Laflour's offense, which
is really Kyle Shanahan or Sean mcvay's offense to some extent,
that's the West Coast language. That's where he's got a
long way to go. I mean, you get these guys
that they got to repeat sixteen words back into the

(08:44):
huddle after the coach puts it in their ear, and
they have to be able to do it fast and fluently.
So a long way to go is not just seeing
things understand, it's it's also being able to lead in
the huddle. Finally, a Chris Cooley joining us. Aaron Rodgers, Uh,
you listen, it's it's you know, I remember ten years
ago when I said, I used to work at the

(09:04):
other company, and I said, you listen. I think he's
kind of condescending in prickly. I just I watched him.
I watch his body language. I think he's great, but
I don't think he's got you know, he's not Russell Wilson,
mister optimism or Tom Brady. He's he's a little bit
of his contrarian to what you think the quarterback leadership.
You know, things should be, and it's okay by the way.
There's a lot of different ways to do it. But um,

(09:26):
when you watch that whole thing, just erupt as a
guy who played at a pro bowl level in the NFL,
how do you solve it? Can you solve it? What
do you make of the whole mess? Yeah? To me,
he's kind of like Will Ferrell playing Alex Trebek. I

(09:49):
try to do. It's the Saturday Night Live cast. Um, Look,
I think both parties seem to be a fault a
little bit. You know, I always go back to you
agreed to play here, you signed the deal. The fans,
the community, the players. So many people are depending on
him as a Green Bay Packer. But I do understand

(10:09):
where he's saying. Then trust me, if everybody's doing that,
believe in me. Don't don't trade up and get Jordan Love.
And as far as the Packers, he didn't need to
do it. I mean, it worked out with Brett Farve
when they went and got Aaron Rodgers, but he was
that year. He was essentially the last first round guy
on their board. When they took Aaron Rodgers, they trade
it up for Jordan Love, And to me, that's taking

(10:32):
a little bit of shot at your quarterback. Who is
the MVP of the league. I mean, it is gonna
have some more good years. Like I really never understood
that move, and I do, like Jordan, I see how
that really would frustrate Aaron Rodgers. And you were at
a point now where these guys, some of these guys
make so much money that if he does want to

(10:52):
hold out, it's gonna cost him a ton. Yeah, but
I think he can afford it, And so it puts
both of him in a really bad situation. Aaron got
to pay a ton of money. He's gonna look bad
to all the fans and Green Bays losing their their
MVP quarterback if he doesn't show up and play. Yeah,
they're both kind of trapped in a weird way because
they still own his rights. He could retire, but you know,

(11:12):
when you were in your prime, you don't want to retire.
I mean, did Washington give you a heads up if
they ever drafted a tight end when you were in
your prime? Did they ever draft one? Yeah, they drafted
Fred Davis in the second round out of USC But
tight ends a little bit different because you're talking about
an offense. Realistically, if you can have the best eleven
guys on the field, that's what you want to me.

(11:34):
That was never intimidating. I thought, you know, having that
kind of guy who could help out, And that was
kind of in the era of Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez,
when New England had two outstanding guys on the field.
You don't have to compete against just the tight end.
You're competed to be on the field with all the backs,
all the receivers. So it didn't truly bother me, man,

(11:56):
But no one did give me a heads up. Nobody
gave you heads up. It was that from first Pro Bowl.
I was like, oh, yes, I need to play better.
I'll pick it. I'll pick it. No, it didn't hurt
my feelings. It was interesting, but didn't hurt my feelings.
Good seeing you, buddy. I'm glad you're happy. I always
love when I see you on my schedule, coming on
the show. We don't have you on enough. Good seeing you.

(12:17):
It's always good to see you. Colin. Thanks you bet.
Chris Cooley really good guy, former Washington tight end, Utah
State great player, had a radio show, TV stuff in DC.
Forever he may still he was very very good, very
talented guy. Be sure to catch live editions of The
Herd weekdays and noon Easter Ninny Empacific Hot Water never
runs out, Go Tankless Navvy and tankless water Heaters. Check

(12:39):
him out right now going to Tankless Made simble dot
com Tankless made simple dot com. Joytaylor with the news, No,
no turn on the news. This is the Herd Line News. Well,
the NBA season is winding down. It's time to start
talking NBA playoffs. Yes, it is. Last night on NBA
on TNT, Dwayne Wade revealed who he thinks is the

(13:00):
dark horse skin the East. Oh boy, well, obviously the
Miami He would be the first one that comes to mind.
They went to the East the Conmence finals. I mean
they went to the finals last year and won the
Eastern Conference Finals. So automatically they're coming in with a
little confidence that is different than an Atlanta Hawks, who
are this is a they building to be to become
this right, Well, he'd have won ten of their last

(13:22):
thirteen games. They're currently they're healthier if in the East,
they're healthy early have Tyler Hero back. They play the
seventy six Ors tomorrow, the Bucks on Saturday and the
Pistons on Sunday. They beat the Celtics last night, who
are in seventh one twenty nine one twenty one now,
and now Bam is closer to his peak last year.
We're still young players. So BAM's a better player this

(13:42):
year than last. Well, yeah, I mean think I think
that's Wade's point. Like they this is a team that
obviously no one expected to go as far as they
did last year, and they're coming back now healthy at
the right time, and they have the chemistry and confidence.
You know, Tyler Hero was a rookie. You know, they're
just a more mature team. Now, what's going on with
Tyler Hero? I'm hearing some things. Um, I mean he's

(14:03):
he's still have a young players, likes himself a little.
What's going on? It doesn't just here things one thing
we're gonna have to I think just give a little
wiggle room too. Yeah. The younger guys is they're gonna
like social media. Yeah, okay, they the drip is very important,

(14:24):
heay for some and for others it's it's not. And
that's how they well show up in Jim clothes and
that's not This show has no egos, so it's very
difficult for us to understand that and relate to it.
I definitely have an ego. I'm not a great TikToker um,
but like it's like similar to the Juju thing, like
there are some generational things going on here, get um

(14:46):
and it doesn't. I don't know that it serves anyone
to get like really tricked. It's a Heat fan, do
you or you're still buying Tyler Hero? Yes, I'm still
very much in on Tyler all right, yes, all right, yeah,
I'm not bailing. They would play the winner of the
Philly play in game Um in the second round. Who
would they play if they beat they would play the
winner of Philly the Philly Playing Game if they if

(15:10):
they beat, if they get the Hawks, so right now,
they beat the Spot, they'd face the Hawks in the
first round. Yeah, they'd beat the Hawks and then the Knicks.
Obviously in six places they'd beat the Knicks. So then
they would play the winner of the Philly Playing Game. Yeah,
they're not gonna beat Philadelphia, but they Heat match up
well with the Knicks and the Hawks. I don't think
anybody matches up particularly well with the Bucks ran the

(15:33):
Sila Bucks. I'm gonna wait and see mode with the bucks. Hey,
when it comes to Milwaukee and the Green Bay area code,
nobody's got your back like this, this guy right here.
I'd like for them to prove it. All right, this
is fun. Forbes just release their list of the highest
paid athletes of twenty twenty. UM. Do you know who

(15:53):
is number one? Well, it's almost like a box or
a soccer guy. Connor McGregor one hundred and eighty million.
He's all the whiskey. Two yeah son, so body you
know boxer and a two soccer guys, Dak Prescott the
hell what so it's McGregor. For our radio audience. The
top ten are McGregor one, Dak made one hundred and

(16:14):
seven million, Messi one hundred and thirty million, Ronaldo one
hundred and twenty, Dak one hundred and seven point five million,
Lebron ninety six point five million, Neymar ninety five million,
Federer ninety million, Lewis Hamilton eighty two million, Brady seventy
six million, and Durrant seventy I'm gonna stay on cameo
and make two hundred bucks a cameo. I gotta catch
up to Dak. I got that. I can't believe that number,

(16:35):
and nobody there surprises me except Dak. He made a
da He's the face of the Yeah, I know, but
Cowboys are the biggest brand. Like, they make the most money.
They're the biggest brand in the world. He made seventy
million dollars outside of football. They're the He's the starting quarterback.
The face of the biggest brandow was Tony Romol. He

(16:57):
never made over thirty million. Dak is more marketable then
a Romo. Apparently, spoken soccer guys make a lot of
let us. Yeah they do. I mean, Dak is very impressive.
But and I'm not saying, like the Cowboys are the
biggest brand, like it's my opinion, Like, no, they are
the most expensive brand in all of sports. That's that's
a given. And he is the face of that. So okay,

(17:18):
I don't about that. How they measure that, all right,
So I love this. You're a Las Vegas guy. Yeah,
I have great affinity for Las Vegas. And we all
remember the black hole in Oakland's. Yeah, well it's it's
gone a little upgrade in Las Vegas. So we obviously
haven't had fans in the stadium. Wind Resorts is the
official nightlife partner of the Raiders and Allegiant Stadium. I

(17:42):
like Wind and they will be I love the Wind,
and they will be opening the wind Field class Oh
anything winds classy, something is classy. I love this. So
maybe some of these uh, you know, rich athletes we
just mentioned can go and spend some money there. Uh.
The eleven thousand square foot club section will stretch the
length of the end zone, forty two televisions and nine

(18:03):
foot by thirty five foot led screen to DJ boots
um Big sound System, and it will feature appearances by
Wind Nightlife's DJ's um. Exterior entrance twenty nine Boots was
couch seating and premium bottle service. Can I get? Dj
Khalid rhymes with salad and four bars I loved has

(18:24):
a residency at at win Well. The win is very nice.
It's got very good food. Steve win very you know
there's a legendary name. Well. The interesting thing is there'll
be a dress code. The winds classy. We're not going
to be seeing the denim short well, you know the
black hole in Oakland. Like Raiders fans are notorious for,

(18:46):
they're very elaborate. Yeah, but that's not Raiders. There. The
Wind is very classy. I like the wind. Yeah, I
think this is fun. It's I like that stadiums well
because Miami has had lived at the Miami Stadium for
forever and I've watched games there. It's like, it's very fun.
I've been to like seven different lounges and restaurants in

(19:06):
the win. All good. I'm excited for this, so am.
I I was really interested to see what kind of
like special unique things the Las Vegas Stadium was gonna
have because it's Las Vegas, like, it's gonna be flashy.
There's gonna be obviously a significant change from We're showing
some footage of Raiders fans right now. Yeah, they don't.
They don't want anybody in a guerrilla suit jumping around

(19:26):
in the wind. Night life, end zone. I'm looking forward
to this stuff. So NFL. What did the NFL do?
Week one? Monday night football? Grouten at home against Lamar Jackson.
Good stuff, Joy with the news. Well that's the news,
and thanks for stoping the herd line. Okay, there's a
bunch of the NFL schedule comes out. There's about five
or six teams with the schedule, and I'll tell you

(19:48):
why that I'm really interested in watching that is coming up.

(20:51):
a lot more often. So. The full NFL schedule is
getting released tonight at five Pacific and eight Eastern on
FS one, So in our best for last today. Not
all schedules are like I like. Jacksonville's a prime example.
They're not going to be a great team. I think
they can battle around and for five hundred because I

(21:11):
do think offensively they'll be fun. But I'm not really
worried about you know, I'm talking about teams. There's some
teams that have some big decisions to make with quarterback.
Some coaches are on the hot seat, and I'm very
interested to see their schedules. So these these are the
six schedules that I'm most interested in. Number six the Packers. Now,

(21:33):
they're the current favorite to win their division and should be,
but they have ten games against teams that made the playoffs.
In fact, the only NFC team that made the playoffs
they don't face is Tampa Bay. Aaron has started week
one thirteen consecutive weeks, but there's a lot of noise.
It's very unsettled. So I just kind of want to

(21:55):
examine it. If you got into a worst case scenario
and Aaron doesn't show up, Arrand's gone. Is Jordan Love
getting the Lions a couple times early? If everything goes sideways,
I know they're off the board. Now you can't bet
the over under future bets on them, So I just
kind of interested to see how it falls for Green

(22:17):
Bay because in life, when you run a business, you
always got to consider worse case scenario. And I want
to see how tough they're They're September is number five.
Chicago Bears are very interesting. So last last three years
under Matt Naggie, the Bears offense is rank twenty six.
They're going to play justin fields. There is no question
they're gonna bay justin fields. I want to see where

(22:38):
the bye shows up, because this is the way it
works when you have a young quarterback. They're gonna get
justin fields on the field in week one for they'll
be plays. But everybody knows, including Andy Dalton, they got
to get to the next level or the coaches out
in the GM's in trouble. They're already in trouble. So
I want to see where the bye is. And I
think if they get lucky and it's like by then

(23:00):
Troit in week seven, that's where you play justin fields.
You give him two weeks of practice, then he gets
to play the Lions at home. It's like, okay that
we did this with two last year. Remember a couple
of years ago, we guess when Lamar Jackson would start
at week eleven. Kind of want to see the softest
part of the Bear schedule. Where's the buy fall? Where
do the Lions fall? And Nat'll give you some sort

(23:23):
of inclination on when Justin Fields they let him loose.
Number four the Chargers, now, I think they're a dark
horse super Bowl team, but keep your eyes. So Brandon
Staley is a rookie coach. That means he's got to
implement a new system. His system works, but it's new.
They also totally rebuilt their offensive line. Rashawn Slater left tackle,

(23:43):
Corey Linsley center. They went the center, left guard, left tackle,
all brand new. Well, the offensive line, more than any
unit in football, is about chemistry and time together. That
old line's not going to be great. So I want
to see when do they have to play the Chiefs?
You know, when do they you start looking at the

(24:03):
pass rushes they face. I would love for the Chargers
this again, in that division, we kind of presume they're
playing for a wild card spot. So that's when it
gets interesting because then you're getting into that how the
schedule falls is the difference between nine wins you're out,
ten wins you're in. So I think they need a
little bit of an early September break to get the

(24:26):
offensive line going and to get Brandon Staly's defense rolling.
The schedules a lot of Kansas City early, a lot
of road games cross the country, or I mean they
already opened at Washington and that defense for a new
old line that feels like ohen one, do you got
to go to Kansas City the next week? Are you owen? Two?

(24:47):
That's the difference between making the playoffs and not. The
Chargers Number three, the New York Giants. Listen. They went
five and three in their last eight games. Daniel Jones
cut down on his turnovers and that prove the wins.
And I am interested here because I think they're gonna
make a decision by Thanksgiving on him. They're gonna know
if they're gonna stay or not. This offense. Dave Gentleman,

(25:09):
Kenny Galladay, Darius Slayton, Serving Shepherd, that is a good
receiving corps. Evan Ingram, Kyle Rudolph. Those are really B
B plus tight ends. Se Quon Barclays back their offensive line.
They went and got a left tackle last year, so
they have committed to the offensive side of the ball
here it's time and they played well at the end

(25:30):
of the year, So to me, can they take that momentum?
If I was the Giants, Washington's got a new quarterback,
Dallas has a new defensive coordinator. Philadelphia's got a new
head coach. If I was the Giants, I would love
my division games early. I bring back my coach coordinator,
I bring back my quarterback, most of my my offensive line.

(25:51):
I would if I'm the Giants, I want to face
the Cowboys early. I face the Eagles early, face the
Washington football team early, because they got new stuff and
I like what I bring back. Number two the Cowboys.
Never forget this. They have the number one offense in
the league through the first month of last year, so
they also it's very interesting. They're one of the teams

(26:13):
that should root for a harder schedule early, so I
think I think they're going to be kind of a
nine ish eight nine, ten win team, right, So again,
how's the schedule fall with Dallas. They also the strength
of this team is their wide receivers and they only
work if Dak has time to throw. So this is
an old offensive line. Now. This year in the draft,
they address defense they should have next year in the draft.

(26:36):
I can tell you right now Dallas is going to
address the offensive line the Rams next year, and the
Cowboys they're gonna go address the offensive line. And so
if I'm Dallas, I wouldn't mind a couple of the
tougher teams early in the season. I'd like to play
Washington's defensive front early, because by week eleven I may
be using a backup at left tackle and a backup

(26:56):
center and a backup right guard. So if I'm Dallas,
give me one Washington early, give me the Giants early,
Give me some of those tough defensive fronts early. One
of my offensive line, which is old, is healthy. Number one,
the Cleveland Browns, I think the schedule really matters for them.
We know they played Kansas City Week one. That's a
bad spot. They already got a bad break. They're they're

(27:17):
bringing in nine defensive starters, nine new guys, and they're
talented like this is not. But a lot of them
are kids, a lot of them are young. Greedy Williams
got hurt last year, Grant Delay, the safety, young Denzel
Ward still pretty young. So you got nine new starters,
a lot of movement. We already knew they faced Kansas
City early. I I don't want to I got Green

(27:39):
Band the schedule. I don't want to play them early now.
I don't want to go Kansas City to Green Bay.
I got Aaron Rodgers Mahomes with nine new defensive starters,
and we know they're in a tough division, and I
think they're gonna win their division. But I've been saying
this for a month. They're the one team if they
just get a They've already gotten a crappy break with
the Chiefs week one where Andy Reid doesn't not lose

(28:00):
Week one, and in September, their schedule could go from
a nine win team to a twelve win team. Based
on I'd love to face now the Packers later in
the year. The offenses like Baltimore. No, No, Lamar Jackson's
that offense is too hard to teach young kids. I
want to face Baltimore now later in the year. I

(28:23):
want to face Green Bay later in the year. I
very interesting schedule. By the way, Browns had the lowest
winning percentage by any team in the month of September
in the last twenty one years, so they historically don't
start great. All right, there we go. Those are the

(28:43):
ones I'm looking at. M Drive, Fremen dot Com, free shipping,
sixty day money back guarantee, rEFInd your prime with them
Drive and also today you don't like dogs and sandwiches
been established. We just can't. It's enough. Not going to work.

(29:04):
