Chapter 1: What are the key highlights from NFL Free Agency?
And most of all, thank you to all you 92%ers for tuning in each week and getting us to win this award. This award is really just a representation of all you people that tune in each week to listen to us two idiots talk about nonsense. So thank you for tuning in. We sure love doing this podcast. The only reason we're able to do it is because all you guys listen. So very much appreciate it.
And it's an honor, iHeart, to receive this award on behalf of the 92 percenters who make this podcast happen, as well as our amazing production crew, Wondery, Wave, everyone involved in actually making this thing watchable. Well done, guys. So, yeah, let's move on to some free agency news. What do you think, Trav?
Yeah, let's dive into it, big dog.
All righty. First week in NFL free agency in the books. Again, this is being recorded Monday. So if something were to happen, perhaps Tuesday or even Wednesday when the show comes out, we will not be talking about it in the show. And really, it's Wednesday at about 1230. So something is that this is Monday, a lot of shit is Monday, 1230 Eastern.
So there could be something that happens later today that we don't want to know about. But Either way, to date, there have been some interesting things. We have a fan question about free agency from Jenna X KC. I think that's Jenna at KC. Okay. So I've wondered this. Do players not go to their new teams and tell their old teams plans to Like, how does that work?
Actually, is there a rule or just common knowledge to respect the situation and nothing is discussed? I don't know if there's a rule that you're not allowed to disclose information, but I can tell you that everyone does disclose. And this is absolutely.
something that happens in the nfl jenna um yes actually a lot of the times you will see teams sign practice squad players one to two weeks before they play an opponent for this very reason they want to get code words they want to get information on uh no huddle plays coverage signals all of these things are being tried to figure out keywords that are set at the line there's always information that they're trying to get out of players that have been in other organizations
Yeah, I don't know if it gets to the point of like you're sharing all your notes that you took.
It probably does. It probably does get to that. I bet guys will bring in binders.

Chapter 2: Why are the Cowboys and Bengals making headlines?
Wait, so Jason, we've only talked about the men's bracket. Do you use the same metric system to figure out who's going to win the women's bracket? Like, do you just look at who would win the brawl?
Oh, wow. I haven't thought about it that way. No, I don't use the same metric. Women's, I just go with, I just put UConn as the winner every single year.
I don't know if they're the same anymore.
I put UConn as the winner every single year, and that'll be until Gino retires. And then I just go based on overall team height average. Whoever's the taller team. Then I just fill it out that way.
You're fucking hilarious. I haven't even – I haven't peeked at the women's as much. Where's K-State? I know they won the Big 12. Nice. They're up there. Five seed? Solid. Solid five seed. We do know that Juju Watkins is at the top of her game. Texas is – God damn. Yeah, they're number one seed. I think it's kind of fair to say they're –
The number one seeds are... I feel like there's less upsets in the women's bracket usually than there are in the men's bracket. Is that fair to say?
I think it's fair to say, at least for the number one seeds. You don't see the number one seeds get kicked as much as you do in the men's brackets.
In my extensive knowledge of both men's basketball and women's NCAA brackets, I like to make broad sweeping generalizations about...
Yeah, can't forget South Carolina. They've been at the top for quite a while now. They're kind of like the UConn of the modern day. They have a lot of talent there year in, year out.
