I did the steven A did a funny thing about what Lebron should call Bronni, uh, what Bronni should call Lebron in the workplace, And he came up with some ideas that I think Lebron actually ended up going with. But before we get to demons, and before we get to the top of the show, let me remind you guys. This episode of What's Right with Nick Ride is brought

to you by Huggies Skin Essentials. Baby's Rejoice, New Huggies skin Essentials are here, a brand new dermatologist approved line of diapers, wipes, and pull up training pants, all designed with a baby's sensitive skin in mind. All right, Demonse, how are you a week out of football beginning?

is going to be awesome that falls off. You have to find at least one team that everyone thinks is going to be terrible that shocks people. You have to find at least one worse to first. Those things happen every single year, and Sal did it. I think I

did it with mine. Speaking of Sal, I mean, what a shot in my ribs when I'm listening to my pal Bill Simmons and my pale cousin Sal do their over Under podcast, and Bill the podfather says just he's giving a take and then says, seemingly out of nowhere, and I'm not giving a hot take just to get aggregated like Nick Wright. And then he's like, gives a very half hearted sorry Nick, and then keeps it moving. I mean, I the that's point what I would call

not only uncalled for, but unfounded. And so I'm you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna reach out to Bill uh and I'm sure. I mean, it's my feelings aren't hurt. I just I would like to know what he's talking about. I feel like I'm the op. It's the opposite. I don't even I I don't even tweet out clips from the show that often. I the I'm very I'm not as online as many and I mean people can say I've had some, you know, hot takes in the past,

but the hottest ones have come true. That's not I guess you could say me picking the Bears to go to the Super Bowl is, you know, but I'm not trying to get aggregated for that. The me not believing in the Philadelphia Eagles, I guess is my hottest take of this offseason. They were the worst team of football for two months. So the now, the bright side is it will probably be the entry point to me making my long weighted debut on the BS the Bill Simmons podcast,

because that's long overdue. Wilds goes on all the time. Bill and I are quite friendly, and now you know he has to let me come on and defend myself. I mean, I feel like, like no choice there, It's only right, and so I'll reach out. It's early on the West coast, so I heard it this morning. I'm listening playing. I got up at six am, do a

little workout, play a game of college football. And while I'm playing college football, I'm listening to the Simmons and Salover Unders podcast and Annual Tradition and I and I get and I just a total drive by.

but Bill and I are cool and friends. But uh but I so, I It's not like I had any heads up, nobody had text me or anything. Uh and so yeah, so am I. Uh so I'm excited to I will say this real quick. Early in my TV career, I was listening to actually Bill's podcast and Chuck Klosterman, who's one of my favorite writers ever and uh just a really smart, unique guy. He goes on with Bill once or twice a year and has for almost twenty years. And I've only at this point been on TV for

like two years. And they're talking Jordan Lebron and Closterman goes to Bill. He was like, do you know that Nick Wright guy who's always talking about Lebron and I'm just listening. No one has told me it happened, and that to me was like one of the coolest moments. I was like, I love this guy. I've listened to this guy since I was a kid, and they were you know, complimentary or nice there. But yeah, so okay, now to the things that actually matter. I don't even know how.

to just do okay with season predictions, that's fine. If your goal is to nail it, then you have to be more ambitious, just ward to the wise, because if you know what, I don't need to beat around the bush anymore. I've been wildly disappointed with Bruce picks. They're just all the favorites. They're just all the favorites. All the teams that were good last year are good again. There's almost known. The only new playoff teams are the Jets and the Bengals, and today I'm sure he's gonna

pick the Falcons. There's no worse to first, there's no this team. Everyone thinks it's gonna be awesome falls off. It's just very very well. I mean, I gotta tell you, I'm gonna I'm gonna you know what here is. Brew doesn't listen to the pod, at least I don't think, so, I'm just gonna reveal it. Today's Thursday. So we do the bud list. He's under dress list, and I'm putting his picks on the butd list because they're the picks that I mean. Just you know what I mean, A

as the Internet would say, a casual would make. Oh, these teams were good last year, they're all gonna be good again. These teams stunk last year, they're all gonna stink again. I don't And so, yeah, he's being too safe. He's being too safe, tell you that much right now? Too safe? All right to mon say, let's get to the show, all right.

and Tom Brady is the goat. I think Patrick Mahomes plays the position at the highest level anyone's ever played it. I don't think there is a single thing Brady could do that Mahomes can't. I think he has all the intangibles, all the tangibles, and a couple more tangibles than Tom had. I also think Tom is the goat because it's not just about you know, basically what your Madden rating would be. It also has to be about how long you did

it for what your accomplishments are. The reason I found this intriguing is I actually now believe if there are people who are already willing to say no, he's the goat. I think that if they pull off the three peat, it might be fifty to fifty. I think if they pull off the three peat, he might there might already be half a football America saying no, he's the goat.

He's not just the most talented, he's the goat. Because keep in mind, what if we just operate in the universe of if the Chiefs win the Super Bowl this year, what that will mean is this, through seven years of this guy's career, well eight years of his career, but seven years playing, he was in the Final four all seven times for an organization that in the fifty years before he got there made the Final four one time.

He was in the Super Bowl five times for an organization that in the fifty years before he got there was in the Super Bowl zero times. He won the Super Bowl four times in seven years for an organization that obviously had won zero in the previous fifty and he pulled off a three peat in a league where no one had pulled off a back to back in

twenty years, that's what he would have done. It would mean that through seven years of the guy's career, his worst season ever was twelve wins a conference championship loss in overtime. It would also mean that his playoff record gets run all the way up to eighteen and three, and he would be second all time in postseason victories, behind just Brady. And it would also mean that Mahomes has won Super Bowls with every style of team one

could win with. And so if they win it this year, I do think, man, that people are just some people will still go to Tom's seven and not just Tom seven, but they'll also go to the Yes, correct, they'll go to them. But so that's the other part of it that I do wonder about in this regard. I think right after it happened, people looked at it like, man, all Brady beat prime Patrick. But I do what I wonder is if history will look at it more like

Brady's prime was. The year after he beat Patrick in the Super Bowl, he was second in MVP voting, so Brady's prime was still going and top prime. Brady beat young Patrick. I wonder if the narrative will flip because if if Patrick all of a sudden wins three straight and Brady beat him twice in his first three seasons as a starter, I think people will say, oh, well, Mahomes wasn't as good as he got to when Brady

was playing. Now that I right now, and like he didn't yet know how to win, and Brady had all all of this. Now what is again? I don't know. I think it's probably a little bit of both, but it is it will it will be less of a kill shot because when when Brady won that Super Bowl in Tampa, I was on TV before and after and I said, Man, the saddest part about this is it might mean that Patrick can't run him down because now

the Super Bowls are seven to one. We don't know, you know, if he's gonna ever really have the chance to do it. But the getting a phone call from Scranton, Pennsylvania, I wonder if that's Joe Biden. But but the fact that since Tom beat Patrick, what Patrick's gone out and done. If he ends up what is in the next four years pull off a three peat without Tyreek Hill, it'll and that's the other the last point, real quick before

you get to your follow ups. The other thing is, in a weird way, Tyreek continuing to go and set these records and Mahomes winning super Bowls, I think only adds to the legend. And so the if and so there's just a lot. There's a lot here that is at the doorstep for Patrick and if through seven years as a starter, and Brady obviously played forever and was unbelievable. But part of Brady's legend is fourteen conference championship appearances,

ten Super Bowl appearances, incomprehensible seven rings. If through seven years, Mahomes has half the conference championship appearances, half the Super Bowls, and more than half the rings. Well, you're starting to build quite the case.

Aaron Rodgers. So, statistically speaking, could the most yards Brady ever threw in a season came after he beat Mahomes in the Super Bowl. The second most touchdowns Brady ever threw in a season came after he beat Mahomes in

the Super Bowl. So it's just, I mean, that is a testament to Brady's greatness, But there is an element of I mean, if the year after beating Patrick they won thirteen games, he threw for fifty three hundred yards and almost one league in MVP, it's very hard to say that the year before he did all that he was some diminished, lesser player. That's all I'm saying. All right, now, let's get to the follow up.

better in the moment was a real debate. In the nineties, Steve Young, Brett Farv, Troy. I don't think, in my opinion Troy was not quite at that level, but Young and Farv that was a real debate back and forth. In the eighties, Marino was the best, but well, Montana is there, So I guess Montana is probably the best, but some people I kind of Marina is so good and always there. Seventies you have Bradshaw and Stall back.

the most votes. What Lamar and Joe would be third and fourth? What do you?

me see if this is what? I can't find it now. The A lot of the Jerry Jones quotes that we've used on TV are from him or from his new website. I hold on Clarence. I want to give credit because this matters cowboys website. I think it's like all Dallas is what it's called. But now I can't find it. Producers, Can you guys please try to find what this website is and then put it in the thing. I think it's like a L L D l LS. But whatever, he's starting his own venture is the point, which is

why I want to give him credit. Uh. And so I but I but when I go to his Twitter bio, it says, okay, so it is, so, thank you very Dusty. Also just sent it to me yet And I did have the website right, a L L D l LS dot com. Uh, And it's a subscription website. And but am I wrong that it's Clarence Hills who knows man? Uh? Okay, it is his That's what I thought, Dusty. Thank you

for the help, producers, Thank you for the help. Point is he keeps getting these interviews with Jerry Jones where Jerry talks about Dak's contract where Jerry dropped seven F bombs as in this so credit to him. Good for him. If you're a Cowboys fan, check it out. Support local and independent media. Pay for subscriptions, don't share passwords. Just come on, folks. It's like six bucks a month and a lot of these places help folks out. Subscribe to substacks.

Do all that. Just do it. Okay, Now to the point that I was trying to make, could I do the contracts better? Yeah, of course, it's so terrible. I mean, by the way, they're screwing up the Mica thing right now, right now, they're screwing up the Mica thing. You know why because I know what it would take to have signed Micah Parsons this offseason. It's very simple. You go to Nick Bosa's deal. You see it's five for one seventy. So you tell Micah five for one seventy five. That's it.

Now you're done. We can move on thirty five million a year, you break the record, or maybe five for one seventy six, so he can say he's ahead of Justin Jefferson on average per year. That's fine, and because Mike has got two years left on his deal, you can spread that money out more. Instead, he's waiting, and now next off season, Bosa's gonna get jumped and we're gonna have this protracted nonsense with Micah, just like we

just had with Ceedee Lamb, Ceedee Lamb. If they would have done this a year ago when they could have, they could have gotten Ceedee Lamb for four for one twenty instead it was four for one thirty.

for months. This is either going to be Demanse a Classic two or a Classic three if Dak agrees to a deal with the Cowboys before the season. I was loud and wrong about it for months. But I won't be because he won't. And when I say people are going to be shocked at the deal he signs, I am saying I think Dak is going to get because keep in mind, players want shorter deals, not longer, because they want to hit free agency again. I think Dak

could sign three years, two hundred million dollars. I think that is on the board. I think that if it's a four year deal. We're talking four years, two hundred and sixty five million dollars. We're talking sixty seven million ish dollars a year for Dak Prescott. And that's because last time around, Jerry waited and puttsed around and then Dak got a no trade and a no tag. So that's what I think is gonna happen. All right, Let's move on to the Niners and the Bengals.

both times, and won the Super Bowl. The Bengals are a different story, But go ahead, it's just an yes.

bonus to free up cap space for this year. Now, you can roll cap space over, but why would you free up cap space forty million of it for this year? Free agency's over seasons about to begin Unless let me do my Brian windhors what's going on in Cleveland. Unless you think the Brandon Ayuk trade, you could be back in that business, back in the Brandon Ayuk market. So the Niners have to get this taken care of for this year. The Bengals, I'm worried that Mike Brown is

gonna Mike Brown Demond's eight. The Bengals, when I say they are a notoriously cheap franchise, they used to take money out of the player's paychecks for their jockstraps, for towels, the gatorade machine in the locker room demands, and the soda machine. You had to put a quarters into it and a dollar. It wasn't just like, hey, you're at the facility. It's like, no, we're gonna get this money too.

They in order to pay for Joe Burrow's contract, they sold the naming rights to the stadium, and the fact that they won't pay Jamar Chase is baffling. It's just I understood them not paying Higgins, but that was just so they could pay Chase. I thought, So, yeah, I'm worried about the Bengals long term. I think they're gonna be excellent this year, but long term, the Bengals could go back to being the Bengals, And I'm worried about the Niners short term because they have to have Trent

Williams and the Ayuk. Things getting messy, all right.

gonna get injured behind our terrible offensive line. That you can't go about business that way. I like Jaden Daniels as a talent and as a player. I'm incredibly worried about him getting hurt. I know, you think I'm being silly on this. He is. His frame concerns me flatly. I will take note. This is one of those ones demons. I hope to be wrong because if I'm right too, it means this kid suffered a significant injury. And so

I hope I'm wrong. And I'm relatively high on Washington this year because when he plays, I think he'll be good. I think he's a really good player. I just think he's gonna get beat up, is my concern.

term NFL starter. Panix I worry because of his age and all his knee surgeries. But he is a dynamic player. And JJ McCarthy to me, is just solid. He's just gonna be fine. I don't think he's gonna be great. I think he's gonna be fine. He was very good in the preseason, all right, up. Hilarious you're not gonna be. I have a great US open story that's not even about tennis. I'll tell you that story next What's Right.

Welcome back in What's Right with Nick Wright Episode two fifty eight, and this episode is brought to you by Huggies Skin Essentials. New parents are changing diapers all the time.

roles had bounces. They it wasn't so I next year I could do it if I you know, if I come in in shape and uninjured, there's no question about it. But I So here's the deal. So every year, my buddy Mark Carmon from Chicago, who tried out for the US Open ballperson stuff with me flies in from Chicago, goes to the US Open for multiple days. Danny Parkins, my good friend from Chicago but who now lives here. See mornings on FS one and Breakfast Ball. He had

never been to the US Open. So Tuesday night, he and I I drive out to Flushing. I park in my secret US Open parking spot that I will never reveal to anyone, but it is so elite. It is free, legal, always available, and a six minute walk from the gate and you avoid all the traffic. And I'll tell no one about it. I'll tell you where it is because then I'll dumb luck. Six years ago. So here's the deal.

Six years ago, I found this spot and I was like, oh my god, this is perfect, and I took a picture of the storefront where it's the spot's right in front of. And then every year come to the US Open, I search on my phone for that picture, type the name of that store into maps and navigate there, and every year, multiple times a year, the spot's just waiting

for me. It's amazing. But regardless, Uh, so we go and we haven't bought tickets and it's like now it's like seven to ten, and the late match starts at seven, the Alcarez match, and so I so on the way in we buy tickets, and because it's Alcorrez man in the US Open has been live this year, the Algoriz match is it's still like two grand a ticket for the great seats. I'm like, well, I'm not doing that.

And then if I'm not doing the great seats, then I'll just sit upper deck center, you know what I mean, very high, but a good view center. And those tickets, because the matches started are down from they were like two hundred and twenty bucks earlier in the day when I looked, now they're down to half that, like around one oh five to one ten. So I buy two upper deck middle seats and go in. Meet karm at that match on the outer courts that he was watching.

We watched that for a minute. Walk over to Alcarez. Late in the first set, we're sitting there. Second set, this kid from Australia who's never won anything, looks like he's going to win the set, and I'm like, oh my god, this is gonna be a real match. Now. Now it's one to one, it's going to be one to one, and we're gonna get at least a four setter, maybe a five setter. Alcarez is gonna have to try,

Like this is amazing. Now it's like eight fifteen, eight ten, and I'm like, I wonder if any of those elite seats are still available, and you can't just sneak down into him, because the stadium's two packed and they're check tickets and you can't like just like check see what tickets still available and then just go down there. So I look and four throw baseline right where the service line is. Four throw tickets that were two grand apiece earlier in the day are online still for sale, and

now they're two hundred and fifty dollars each. And I'm like, man, because the guy they think it's going to go down to zero. So I did what I think is an unprecedented move. I bought tickets for a sporting event while at the sporting event with tickets I had already purchased, and I bought me and Danny and Karm tickets to go down low just so we could have better seats to watch. So that picture I took is from our seats, Like I don't know if we can put it back up,

but these are great seats. That's we didn't like. Move down, that's where we were sitting. It was like five hundred bucks. Now here's the bad beat of it. I will tell you something. So this guy whoever was selling them had four seats available, and I bought two cause I'm like, I'm gonna buy you know, I'm gonna buy two. He's only selling them in pairs two or four. I was like, and if we have two, then probably karm can walk down with us whatever it is. But I'm buying two.

But I'm in a stadium. You know how the Internet and Wi Fi in stadiums kind of suck. So I try to buy two and the app tells me, you know, didn't go through. I'm damn, So I try again. It goes through. I'm like, yes, perfect, wait for the little the email from Ticketmaster got it, claim the tickets, boom, walk down. Now we're in the seats, set threes about to start. Alcarez ended up rolling anyway, like this is awesome, drinking Honeyduces with two of my best friends. Great seats.

Is Stiller is sitting right there, former NBA guy David Wesley. I'm looking at I'm like, I know that guy, I'm like, that's David Wesley. He's there. We're just we're in the mix. We're right there. It's the US Open. I didn't look at my phone. I have a new email. Two more tickets from Ticketmaster, so I bought four accidents. So those tickets, I'm like, those tickets, I'm like, I'm not claiming them. I didn't want to buy them, I didn't try to

buy them. I'm not claiming them. And so yesterday morning I did a little chat with seat geek. I'm like, listen, look at the details here. I tried to buy two tickets. It was ninety minutes after the event had started. It didn't like it. It's somehow you guys sold me four. And the guy and he was like, can you I was like, I never even claimed them. I never accepted them.

And the guy was super nice and he was like, listen, our policy is we cannot issue you a refund because you know whatever, you make sure you don't have him. He's like, but we can issue you a promo code for the exact amount. So but I and I use seat geek all the time. So that's as good, you know what I mean to me, it's as good as a refund. So they basically gave me a promo code so on my next order I can use, by the way, unpaid endorsement for them. I guess shout out to them.

It was a good customer service. Yeah, I wasn't scamming him. I wasn't. I wasn't trying to do anything tricky. I was really just trying to buy two tickets. But because the internet and stadiums is bad, it said it didn't go through, but I guess it did, so I clicked it again and then whatever it is. But uh, but yeah, so it was great and I'm going again Sunday. Son. Oh, this is one other thing about the tennis corner, and

then we'll move on. KARM was Danny asked was talking to Karm and KRM was like, yeah, I got two grounds passes, which is like entry too. You can go everywhere except for into ash uh from the US Open people for the ball Boy tryout. So we got four two. I'm sorry, you got two Tuesday ground passes for the try out. And he's like, did you get anything, Nick, And I'm like, yeah, yeah, they sent me some tickets too, and he's like, what they send you? I'm like what.

He's like, no, what what did you get? And I was like, well, I got four Sunday ash lowers. And I could just kind of see the hurt in Karm's eyes that like they were like, all right, you get this and you get that. But yeah, so I'm going against Sunday uh, and then I'll go again next week and I'll go three or four times. I love it, and I'm gonna drink so many honey Deuces and I'm gonna it's just so great. Well it's it's gotta be there because it's two plus weeks. You can see so

many things. The food is great, great food, and the honey deuce is just the greatest beverage in sports America. It's just so delicious. And so it's it's lemonade, vodka contro or whatever that's called. And it's got little honeydew melon little that looked like tennis balls in it. I mean, it's just great. And you get the collectible cup and the cup has every winner of the Open since ash

men and women. I've got thirty of those. Demonse saw his mom and I get the dumbest entire like, Demonse, I can't even tell this sorry, but this was This was, honest to god, I think the closest Demanse has really come to using respect for me and reconsidering marriage when we've got these like thirty thirty old collectible Honeyduce cups. But there were two that were from Serena's last match.

I'll just tell the story. Screw it. So I spent god, honestly probably seven or eight thousand dollars chasing the ghost of seeing Serena's final US Open match because I was like, I'm going to be there, I'm going to have awesome seats. But then she kept winning, so I buy these awesome seats. I go, but then she wins, so I'm like, well, that's not her last match now, so I do it again, and then she wins again, and now the tickets are just going up and up and up. But I was there.

I think she won twice, the lost third match, whatever it was, I was there, and I have the cups. I have the cups, but all the cups from the previous nights they're identical. But I know these are special cups, and so I've separated them in our cupboard. And for some reason, man, my wife Demanse's mom was like, we're putting them together, but these are gonna I'm like, no, we're not. I'll put them. I'll put them downstairs if you want, I'll put them in the a in a

locked box. I know. And this is just like stupid marriage whatever argument. And we stood in that kitchen and argued about this for fifteen minutes. And Demanse was looking at me like, man, stand up for yourself, say god, damn it, I'm putting these cups where I walk. But and he's just sitting there like kind of awkwardly like, oh boy, what we're going back and forth about these cups. That was so dumb. Oh my god, that was so dumb. I still think about that.

go through Pat McAfee. And I mean he was a two seed, but that's a one seed written all over it. If I get past him, it's either Skip or Shady in the final four. So either a co worker, yeah I know I Shady is I'm surprised. It's a shocker. It's it's a shocker. I'm not gonna lie to you. Now. On the other side of the bracket, we know it's gonna it's Cowherd and steven A are gonna be in the final four, and one of them is gonna move on to the championship round. Here's why I take massive

pride in this. Six years ago, I was a sixteen seed in this bracket and won it a Cinderella story for the ages. I took out Skip Colin and stephen A en route to a sixteen seed, winning the most annoying person in media in like twenty nineteen or twenty eighteen. In six short years, I've gone from being a sixteen seed in this thing to a one seed. The one seeds were stephen A, Skip Colin and me. You know a lot of people would say the annoying mount Rushmore

there it is. I mean, the two seeds are unbelievable, fine bomb. Shannon McAfee and Shady. I think this is I don't think Shady's annoying. I think that's mean to Shady. I am. I'm delighted that Skip took out Clay Travis because I mean, Clay Travis should be a lifetime emeritis one seed and probably should have just swept this whole damn tournament. But if I could win this thing as a sixteen seed and then years later comeback as a

one seed and win it, it'll be remarkable. I don't but I don't know that I like my chances against McAfee. I wonder if you can see the votes if you vote, Oh, I evidently you can. Uh uh oh fifty four six, I'm winning. Oh boy, So let's see. So here's let's let's check on, let's check in on the results. Up to this point, stephen A is gonna annihilate Fine Bomb. Uh, there's no question about that. And right now he's annihilating Fine Bomb. Colin's gonna annihilate mad Dog, and right oh,

mad Dog's beating Colin. That'd be an upset mad Dog Colin.

a weird line. I'm trying to walk here. But it would appear that Shady's Cinderella run is going to come to an end because Skip's got eighty percent of the vote. If the current votes hold, the final four is going to be steven A against mad Dog, which you can see all the time, and me against Skip. I mean again, it's fifty four forty six, so McAfee could come back at but we are. But McAfee barely beat urban Meyer that was a fifty to fifty. So this is I find this. Let me see if anyone has got the

only person me? Stephen A and Skip have blown everyone out. Colin's done pretty well as well also. Uh so yeah, so there it is. I think I think I could become the first two time champion, So I love it. Uh and f one minute some of your listener questions. Next What's right? Yeah, maybe what's right? Welcome back in What's Right with Nick Wright. We have, since they're back from summer, break a new F one minute with the wonderful Sierra Fidel. Here it is.

It's been announced that Williams has decided to drop him as a racing driver for their team. The Dutch Grand Prix was his last Gain Prix as a Formula One driver and he's to find other ways of racing. I guess he's no longer a Rollowin driver. And you know, based on what we were talking about last week, this is not surprising. You know, he wasn't doing good. He wasn't performing to their expectations. I guess and they weren't having it anymore. His replacement is the reserve driver. His

name is Franco Klapinto. He's from F two and you know he's been in the F one space obviously because he's a reserve driver. But this will be his first race, like actually a Formula one. You know, I'm excited to see how he does, I guess, but he's no American hero like Logan Sergeant. But we'll see how that goes for him. But on a lineer note, we have the Italian Game pretty happening this weekend. It's going to be in Manza, which means this is the home race for

the Ferrari team. Now, this also means that their fan base, the Tufosi, will be going crazy. It's going to be a sea of red red everywhere, and it's because they're very passionate people. You know, they love their team, they love their drivers, and whether they win or lose, you will see them in the stands going crazy. They are said to be bringing upgrades to the car, and you know, we'll see if they actually work. You know, they bring upgrades. Well, let's just see if they work and then we can

go from there. Hopefully they do work. Because they said, you know, the team principle, and the driver said, they want to bring something to the foci, you know, to make them proud, YadA YadA. In my prediction list, I'm going to put them at number two. I don't know. I know I'm not allowed to be vague. I don't know if it's going to be Carlos or Charles, but I do see them on the ponium, and I say

number two. And then as far as number one goes, I know I'm mentioned last and earlier in the week that I don't see Lando winning every single race from now on, and I stand by that I don't see that happening. But I also don't see Max winning this one. Now does that mean he will win it, I don't know. But I just don't see Max on that first place stool on the podium. So with that being said, I think it's gonna be third place. That's just me, though I'm not a Max hater, I promise, but I just

don't see him first. But I do see McClaren first. But listen here, Marial, it doesn't have to be Lando. It could also be Oscar. So McLaren first for a second, and Red bull third. That's my prediction, and I also feel like it's I feel like someone's gonna be a good one. You know, it's been kind of chaotic relating up to it. It has to be good, and I think it will be good. I'm excited for this one. So if you have time, just watch the race. Watch the Italian Grand Prix this weekend so we can come

back and talk about it. But that's it for the fort I'll see you guys next time.
