Let's dig in. Let's start the show.
Yes, hi and hello, my fellow football Americans, and welcome to Football America. Presented as ever by our pals at DraftKings Sports. Now in all 50 of these United States of Football America, the regular season is drawing ever closer. I'm over the moon about it. I am not watching the month-long lie to your eyes called preseason games. I don't care about the scrimmage. Clips. I hope that my favorite players don't get hurt. My fantasy players, that's about the value of preseason football, in my opinion. In the meantime, we have Mina Kimes coming up, like we say. There they are behind the glasses. I sit in Miami, Florida, talking to my guys, Gino Fuentes and Buddy Badalski. Badowski outfitted head to toe in Dolphins gear.
Yeah, I gotta get ready.
I gotta get ready for the season, you know, Dave? No, I'm still proud to be a Dolphin fan as much as they've brought me nothing but Miz. We gotta remind ourselves every time.
Well instead of the aqua, shouldn't your shirt be red? 'Cause that's what the Dolphins are doing with twenty twenty six, right? What? Waving the red shirt. They're redshirting.
Oh Jesus, that one went whoosh. Yeah, it did waving a white flag and Oh it's like white flag, red what? All right.
We have a lot to dig in on as we try to figure out where this season's gonna go uh with with the great Mina Kimes in just a second here. Before we get to her, let's do a little fantasy fountain. And before we do even that, let's take care of our business. It's episode seventy six. Who is the player in NFL and or all of sports who wore that jersey number best? Number seventy six. Yeah.
It's not a great number, but I I mean we got we got two that really piqued my interest here. One, Orlando Pace, just absolute beast. Rams, Bears. Pro Football Hall of Fame. Great one. But then the more interesting one, Lugroza, offensive tackle slash kicker.
Ah, back in the day, the Lou Groza.
I know people think I'm making a joke. It would be way better if you made position players do the kicking. That way these guys are way too good and they have nothing to do with the rest of the sport. For fifty-nine minutes, they they have nothing to do with it, and then they just run out there and do their one little thing that they do, and they and ironically or not, they would be among the worst human beings in our society to throw out there and be like, hey, go do other football stuff.
Absolutely. They would be miserable at any other football actor.
