And, you know, watching Trenton Simpson, I saw him play last year at the end of the season, you know, when it had the, you know, that last game of year, he went in there and really was impressed with him then. I saw him in college, succeeded my expectations, okay, from what I saw in college. You know, then I started hearing about his dad was an army ranger, so it's all starting to fall together for him. I think what's going to happen is, based off of what I saw the other night, I think he's going to be better at Patrick Queen without a question. I mean, he's an upgrade of Patrick Queen this year. Wow. So that was Bobby DePaul, and if you missed Bobby DeE yesterday, I think you missed out because he gave you four hours of absolute knowledge and stolen the Odyssey app. You can go back yesterday. You can. He's joined us for the entire show yesterday. He's been breaking down film. He broke down the draft class. He watched Friday night's preseason game, and this was probably the biggest bombshell of the show. Trenton Simpson, who the Ravens are high on, but him saying that Trenton Simpson could, will be an upgrade over Patrick Queen this year. And I reminded him, I said, Bobby, just for the record, Patrick Queen was a second team all pro a year ago. He's like, I don't care. This guy's a better football player. He said he did more Friday night without Roquan Smith than he saw Patrick Queen do without Roquan his entire Ravens career. And obviously going back to week 18, Roquan Smith wasn't on field. Now, of course, Simpson did play alongside Patrick Queen there, but he was still able to have a ton of splash plays in that game. I'm with you. That was the biggest surprise that Bobby DeE had in store for us yesterday because I feel like we've been trying to control expectations for Trenton Simpson and kind of, you know, let's, let's give this guy some time. And not expect Patrick Queen out of the gate. But for Bobby DePaul to say he's going to be an upgrade this year, I was shocked. That's why I was like, this year throughout the rookie contract. But what do you have in Trenton Simpson? You know, there's some similarities in the fact that both Queen and Simpson are twitched up athletes. Both of them are sideline to sideline guys. Now, if there was a knock on Queen's game was him and coverage, even though he did improve from his rookie year to last year in Baltimore. But Bobby also thinks that Simpson can be better against the pass early on. Yeah, he thinks he's already better at covering running backs out of the backfield than Queen was when he left this past season, which, you know, that's, that was surprising now for sure. We're going to see it for real when we get there. One of the other things that Bobby DeE talked about, he was incredibly high and we alluded to this last segment. Tavius Robinson, he's a big Tavius Robinson guy. He thinks Tavius Robinson could make an impact this season. I think it was even more surprising, not just Tavius Robinson, but he said that this is the best that the edge position has been now. Yeah, August 12th yesterday, then it's been over the past few years because he mentioned, of course, they brought in clowny late. They brought in Van Neuoy into the season. And that was surprising because we've been talking about this edge group and a lot of unproven guys can always take the next step. Van Neuoy, you're going to want him on a pitch count, but having Tavius Robinson take the next step can go a long way in limiting those snaps for Kyle Van Neuoy, and he was also high on the D's of Isaac. Yes, he's a guy that he actually produced at Penn State, which always didn't. He thinks he can be an NFL pass rusher. If those two things come to fruition, Robinson taking the next step and Isaac, at least being a factor in terms of being a situational pass rusher, I think we look at this edge group a heck of a lot differently. And quite frankly, just hearing Bobby D. Gush about the vast majority of the team, the only downside was the offensive line, which we'll get to in a second. But it really got me thinking big about this defense as a whole, because if those things come to fruition, big F, but if Trenton Simpson is an upgrade over Queen, Bobby D thinks the secondary very well is upgraded year over year. And those edge situations, you can kind of dream big about this defense that's coming off a historical year. I don't know if you read into this like I did, but I felt like he was saying Tavius Robinson is going to be what they wanted David Ajabo to be. Yeah, yeah, I think so. And Bobby, you know, like all of us, I mean, it's kind of showed me time for David Ajabo, he didn't really have anything too groundbreaking to say about him, but yeah, I think that's definitely accurate in what he was saying. Let's go to some things he didn't like. One of them was the running back position, and by running back position, I mean the third running back, he is not a fan of the fifth round pick. He just didn't know Ali, he just thinks he said what he saw Friday night was what he saw on college tape, just not impressive. I thought Owen Wright was a little better, but not great. That's probably why the Ravenstine John Kelly did that. Sure, and you know, I kind of liked what I saw at Owen Wright, and you know, some of the B guys out there have liked what they've seen on a training camp, but they did make that move. And a reason why we're kind of bringing this up where Derek Henry is going to be the bell count. By the way, he loves Derek Henry. Oh, he was all over Derek Henry. He's an age is just a number and all of that. But Derek Henry is going to be a bell cow, but with him being 30, I mean, is he more susceptible to injuries just as ill? We know his injury history, and that's kind of why that third running back, it is a low key need for this football team. You'd like to feel a little bit better about that third running back, and who knows how things shake out, come roster, cut down time. But I mean, the third running back very well could not be on the roster right now. Let's get to the O-line, and the offensive line looks like it's got some issues as we head into the second game of the preseason. He said a year ago, the O-line was thought of at the start of the year as one of the best in the NFL. My granddad had their injury issues, they were rotating tackles at the end of the year. But he liked Roger Rose Garden a lot, said eight years starter, right tackle. I like that guy. On the flip side, we look at Andrew Voorhees, and I think a lot of people have already anointed him as starting guard. I'm among them, like he's got him on starting guard. Bobby D was not impressed with Voorhees on Friday. He wasn't impressed with Voorhees, and he mentioned that both guard positions are massive question marks for this football team. And something that he also talked about with, which I agree wholeheartedly, is that makes it especially more paramount for them to pound the rock early on. Because that's the offensive line with best friends, you just get off the ball, boom, try and move guys. You have Derek Henry, who you know he can make guys miss, you know he can run over people, and get extra yardage after first contact. But this is going to be a work in progress. He brought up, I'm blanking on the coach's name, where the five offensive linemen, how they all got to work together. Yes, John Gruden working together. It's like a chorus line. Exactly, like a chorus line, that was the line. Where when you lose three of your five starters from a year ago, and you're going young, the oldest, Ronnie Stanley is the elder state Smith at 30 years old, where the rest of those guys are on their rookie contracts. Now he did, he did say, if Stanley can stay healthy, and Rosengarten, who he thinks he is, and you've got Linder Obama at center, you should be pretty good at the three spots and all you're doing is filling guards. But still, a lot of question marks with those guards. And you know we were just playing sound from Chuck Smith and talking about the importance of pass rush up the middle. And that is exactly what you don't want if you were Lamar Jackson and Todd Monkin. So that's why to me, and we did that exercise a couple of weeks ago when Jason was out, you know, what are you more concerned about edge or align? And I've, I've always been aligned for me just because there's so many question marks. He also, I want to get to one more thing, and that is the back of quarterback. And he made a good point that we, I don't think we've touched on enough. The Ravens organizational philosophy will not paying the backup quarterback, especially now that Lamar Jackson is making the money he makes. They're not going to spend money on a backup quarterback. And I think their philosophy is if Lamar Jackson gets seriously hurt the seasons over anyway. So, and I think Bobby talked about the fact, Bobby DePaul talked about the fact that they trust Josh Johnson to be a guy that's mentally smart enough to if Lamar comes out of a game. He can sort of handle everything suribably. Now, what can he do physically? But they're not going to pay Ryan Taneyhill to backup Lamar Jackson. Maybe a Taylor Heineken. He was for that. Yeah. But there's a trust about Johnson being the backup. I get what he's saying. I 100% get what he's saying. And I think Heineke fits a lot of what Bobby's saying. And the fact that he's not making any money, you know, he's making just a little over a million dollars per day. But ultimately, if your starting quarterback goes down, if you're any of the 32 teams, your chances of winning a championship are significantly compromised. But I don't know if I'm all in on just, well, Lamar's down, punting the season. I don't know if I'm that far on that side. That's why, you know, can you find that happy medium of. Hey, if they missed it, if he misses three games, could Taylor Heineke win two? Yes. Exactly. And that's what you're looking for. Coming up next, we'll stay talking football, but we're going to look at the league at large. Could there finally be a brand? And I you trade to the Steelers. Sounds like we might be getting close. The Cowboys are a mess. Matthew Judon. Could he be traded? And we'll look at Bonix and Jaden Daniels, who played their first preseason football. It's League of Large, we're live at Pickles across the street from Oreo Park in Camden Yards, or it'll start a two game series against the Nats tonight, Baltimore Baseball tonight. That's the bone and Ryan Ripken, 530 here on the fan. This season Instacart has your back to school. As in, they've got your back to school lunch favorites, like snack packs and fresh fruit.

We've got to, that won't be out here this afternoon. And so, the bottom line is, what it is is, no, there's not that urgency. Now, I understand completely the angst that's happening when you're anxious about and someone says anything about whether you're missed or not. Well, CD, you're missed. Okay, but you're not missed out here competing, and it doesn't put any pressure, anyplace on us. That is Jerry Jones, owner of the Cowboys, with some jibber jabber about CD lamb. I wonder to remind people that the Cowboys, while they're incredibly relevant, monetarily, have not been relevant on the football field since before Y2K. They're a mediocre franchise. Yes, but he just decided that his two best, two of his three best players. I would say his three best players are Michael Parsons, Dak Prescott, CD lamb. Both Dak Prescott and CD lamb are embroiled in contract controversies, and Dak Prescott, quite frankly, is not showing up. And he says there's no urgency. I did see CD lamb quote tweeted that and wrote LOL on Twitter. So, this is going over very well. Well, for what it's worth, Adam Schefter did have an update earlier on NFL Live saying these two sides, when you talk to enough people around the league, fully expect that this deal will get done. Schefter did go on to say that there are still differences to bridge, but emphasize the expectation across the league is for a deal to be finalized. Went on to say they would be a huge upset if lamb wasn't on the field for the Cowboys season opener. But he doesn't have a choice after the year that CD lamb had. Adam, you know, if Joe Jones wants to be upset at someone, he should be upset at Chuck, because our boss put the maloika on this whole thing at Green Turtle one Sunday saying that CD lamb is not a number one. And since then, he became arguably the best receiver in football. Yeah, so Chuck, he motivated him. Yeah, Jason motivates a lot of guys. Because what he says motivates many people. Colton cows are being the latest. Chuck motivated. Oh, Hamilton. CD lamb, but the Cowboys are kind of at crossroads here because Dak Prescott has all of the leverage in the world right now. His contract, the latest contract that he signed a few years back, they can't franchise him again. So they don't have that in the back pocket. He has a massive cap hit this year. And we know if you don't have a quarterback in the NFL, you don't have much of a chance of winning anything. They got to pay him and then Michael Parsons. And then at that point, if you do pay all three of those guys, that cap situation is going to be a little hairy. Let's get an update here. This is from Ian Rappaport on the Brandon Iuc situation. He said, "The Steelers and Niners have a deal on a potential trade, and Pittsburgh is in a good place on the IUC contract, sources say. If San Francisco gives the final sign off, it's done." But he also points out San Francisco has an offer out to IUC on a long-term deal for him to stay. He hasn't accepted. So still no resolution on an IUC decision. Sounds like we might be getting closer. Are we in the red zone here? There has been so much smoke with the Steelers and trying to acquire a wide receiver all off-season. The Steelers trying to acquire Brandon Iuc all off-season where it just seemed like this was eventually going to happen. I'm with you. I think it sounds like this is in the red zone. I am curious if it does go through what the compensation is because it seems like the Steelers have been reluctant to include any of their players in a trade package, but they needed to bring in a wide receiver. You have George Pickens who has his own flaws and no one else. We love a D.D. We love a D.D. kick a ball. When we had a D.D. on last week, I mean, she was adamant that what are we talking about? I'm trying to acquire a wide receiver. And it just didn't make any sense. Yeah, I do wonder how this looks. Whether it's Russell Wilson or Justin Fields throwing the football to these guys, I feel like they both think so. Yeah, we're going to do a Northern exposure each of the next three days here from what Bobby DePaul had to say about each of those three other teams in the AFC North. But Bobby sounded like he was on our wavelength, Ken, in terms of... Yes, they stay. Not a fan of Justin Fields and Russell Wilson. Update, we do know that the Ravens are playing the Chiefs three weeks from Thursday. It doesn't look like Marky's Hollywood Brown will be playing because he's expected them as four to six weeks with the sternoclavical or injury. I'll take your word for it. That sounds serious. That's a big word. That is a big word. You're throwing in that many letters, dude. It's got to be a big deal. More important four to six weeks. Whatever the hell that is. So he will not play. He will not play week one. I have never seen Hollywood Brown as a guy. If you say four to six weeks, he doesn't come out on the early side. Yeah, it's not going to be four. Yeah. I have been really interested in seeing him in Kansas City because, look, when you have Patrick Mahomes throwing you the football, it helps a lot. And I think it wouldn't surprise me if he had a solid year there. The big thing with him, of course, is just going to be staying healthy. But we know that they desperately needed receivers. They went out. They're after one in the first round and then brought in Hollywood. But going to have to wait to see him in the Chiefs red. One more. Matthew Judon, not happy with his contract into England. We brought up Matthew Judon to Bobby D's. Like that's more pie in the sky. Reunions are nice, but he doesn't see it. But Matthew Jud- because he wants a new contract. But Judon, not happy in New England. We talked about this months ago when we did a couple breaks on Matt Judon, maybe a Ravens reunion. And I get what Bobby's saying. He obviously is going to want to get paid. He has six and a half million dollars in base salary due this year, final year of his contract. But if you're the Patriots, I mean, what, why would you not trade him? You are going to absolutely stink this year. You're going nowhere. You're going nowhere. He's on the last year of his deal. He's in his thirties. I mean, he's not a part of your future. If he isn't dealt prior to the deadline at a minimum, I would be stunned. But I would think you're going to try and deal him prior to week one. If you're in New England. Yeah, you're right about that. It doesn't make much sense. He's not going to help you win many football games in New England. Coming up next, our weekly chat with our friend Rita Hubbard, what she think of the O's and the Ravens after that first pre-season game. We'll ask Rita next here on the fan. Orioles and Nat started two game series tonight at Camden Yards, where pickles across the street taking them to 5.30. Ravens on the practice field for training campus. They just played their first pre-season game Friday. It's a perfect time to talk to our friend Rita Hubbard, who joins us every Tuesday. And Rita, thank you as always for joining us. So let's start with the Ravens. Did you see anything you liked on Friday night? You know, it's funny. Well, obviously Nate Wiggins, right? I mean, I call them wiggy because I'm lazy, and I like to just give people nicknames. But, you know, the kid is, to me, as advertised. The things that we're going to be a concern for him, I'm still a little concerned about because I think that there's some plays that might be considered past interference as the season goes on because we know Russ loves throwing that flag. So he has to be careful about some of those plays. But I love his physicality. I love how smart he is. I love how fast he gets back to the football. I think that, you know, I'm excited to see, you know, how they're going to utilize him. I think I got out of that more so about my concern about the backup quarterback situation, though. And Glenn and I talked about that on the show on Sunday because I didn't like the way Josh Johnson looked. I think that for a guy who's been on 17 teams and been in the league for as long as he's been in, for him to still have, to me, very trivial errors that he's having is the concern. And I don't know how you go into the regular season saying that with confidence, that's your backup quarterback. So, and I say that because, I mean, he saw him play for about a half. So, I got to see that. Some of that stuff is like with the offensive line and those guys, a lot of those guys, we're not going to see some of those guys. So, I think I need to see more at this coming game, coming up this weekend. Maybe the guys that we, they foresee to be starting will get some better play time because I saw some Rose Garden. But I was more concerned about what Josh Johnson had going on than I was about the offensive line. It's all doing a better job of that this weekend. But back to your original question, I thought Nate Wiggins looked a lot like his tape at Clemson out there last week. Trenton Simpson got a lot of hype this off season, Rita. What did you think of him in preseason week one? Yeah, I mean, you know, I think that Trenton Simpson, to me, is trending up. And we had an opportunity to talk to him as well. And he, you know, felt good about what, you know, going into that preseason game. Again, it's kind of hard when you're playing against guys that are not necessarily considered starters. So for me, while I thought Trenton Simpson did well, I'm more so going on what we saw from him on the last game of last year, just the Steelers who, you know, were playing their starters because they were playing for a playoff spot. So I'm excited about Trenton Simpson and seeing, you know, what it is that he's going to be able to do. That's another guy that I'm looking forward to watching this weekend to see how he's going to play. And again, I think that this weekend I'm also going to focus more so on the offensive line to see, you know, what formations they're going to have. It's kind of weird, you know, how they had set up, you know, we've been Cleveland at centers like, I don't know what's going on over there. But Trenton Simpson is the guy that I just think that we have a lot of promise for. And I'm looking forward to see more of what they're going to do this weekend as we get to the second game of the preseason. Talking to Rita Robertson side access here on the fan. Rita, first time we got to see the Ravens in a game with the new kickoff. Are you fired up about the new kickoff? No, that's the one thing about the XFL that I didn't really love to begin with. And I mean, you know, and it's fine. But I think that there's so much confusion still going on about the rules and what you can and can't do. That it's going to take a while to kind of, you know, the kinks of it. But, you know, maybe it's just I don't like it because it's new. It's not new to me because again, I've watched XFL games and stuff and I watched UFL last year. But I just don't know how that fits into the NFL. Some stuff just used I leave alone. I think that the NFL want to do everything but get technology in for first downs and touchdowns, which irritates me. But I'm not really loving it. And again, it's not something that I really love when I watched it in the other leagues. But maybe I just need to give it a chance and let it, you know, kind of play itself out and hopefully once the players get more acclimated with the new rules, the season goes on, I'll change my mind. I doubt it. But maybe I'll change my mind. We're speaking to Rita Hubbard since I had access on the fan. Rita, earlier in the show, we were talking O's and the fact that, look, 70 wins. They were the first team, the 70 wins. We know that this is a flawed team. But so were the other 29 teams in baseball where Jacob Calvin Meyer, he had the stat right now. There isn't a team that is going to exceed 95 wins this year. That would be the first time since 1959. Despite all of the flaws and warts of this Orioles team, if they get some guys back healthy in September, could you see them still going on a run in October some way? Yeah. And I, you know, I've been saying this for a while. Last week when I started to write something for the Baltimore B and I looked at the standings as of last week, there were 12 teams of 60 or more wins. I don't know the updated stats on that. I'm just telling you as of last week that that was what the stats were. And I was saying that I don't recall this type of parody in Major League Baseball. In my viewing memory, it's always been somebody that kind of stands out. You know, you know, the Houston, Houston Astros has been a team that I think that, you know, lots of us were used to at this point. Derrick caliber team. And then you got your, your bigger teams like the New York Yankees, like the Los Angeles Dodgers, those type of teams that, you know, they're obviously larger markets. And so they, they're always in a picture. But this year just feels a little bit different. And all, all the things that we complain about, which are all valid points, by the way, when you talk about the starting pitching in the health, when you talk about the bullpen, when you talk about the income system batch, those are all, obviously, you know, issues that could potentially hurt the Orioles when it comes to a World Series title. But when you start looking at everybody else, all the other teams that are quote unquote good, well, they got it too. And so I think that it allows the playing to be a little bit more even and allows teams to be flawed, but still be in major contention, you know, for a World Series title. So I'm not surprised that it's not going to be 100 win team because it's, to me, I've noticed this trend of like, you know, even the teams that we made, we maybe thought we're going to be good a year later, a little bit ahead of schedules, maybe like the Kansas City Hills or whatever. But the fact that there's so many teams that are right now competitive and playing at a level where, you know, they're fighting, there's so many spots that people are fighting for currently. Hey, I think that gives the Orioles a great chance of being representatives of the AL for the World Series. Rita, let's finish with this Kobe Mayo yet is yet to have a major league hit. He's not in line tonight, which I think makes sense because Trevor Roger ground ball pitcher. And I think Mayo started the last time and committed in there in that game. So yeah, should have been too. Are you concerned at all about Kobe Mayo? I mean, I'm concerned about how this organization treats guys like Kobe Mayo. Yes. We've seen this before, right? You bring up a guy. I don't know what they are doing over there. And I guess that's my issue. I don't know how you expect anybody to find some type of continuity. If you don't give them playing time. So if you're not going to give them playing time, then what was the point of bringing them up here to begin with? If you knew that he wasn't going to be a good therapist in it, or if you didn't know that and you know that now, what is he still doing up here? I don't understand what that. I don't understand what they do with a lot of guys. They bring up and down. And I feel like this is just a pattern for the authority that they operate. And so I'm frustrated for him. If I'm Kobe Mayo, I'm frustrated. But I'm frustrated for him because how are we supposed to expect this kid to come around and find some continuity and some consistency if you're not going to put him in the lineup? Or if their base is not where he's going to be, what is the backup plan here? And if you don't know, then send them back down. Let them get playing, Tom. So when you do want to send them back up and he's ready, then you can send them back up. But I just don't know what the Orioles ever do with any of these guys that they have. And to me, that's more of the frustrating part than Kobe Mayo within itself. You and Glenn tonight? Me and Glenn tonight. So yeah, we're going to have a little bit of fun. All time low. They're coming into town. Oh, wow. Nice. Yeah. So we're going to have them call in and we're going to talk to Obi Mahali as well because he is the Falcons. I think color guy there or he does radio in Atlanta. One of those things, but former Raven Fullback will have him more. And so I'm looking forward to that this evening. Rita Hubbard, always great. Thanks for your time. We will chat next week. All right, guys. I'll be soon. Coming up next. T-bone time. TMI with T-I-M. What you got? Well, when I got to the station today, Chuck was there and we're kind of just talking about the trip. Yeah, reminiscing about the prior 48 hours. Yeah, a little river. We're about the prior 48 hours where you and I, we went over his place Sunday night and then stayed there that morning. Chuck showed us all around and we kind of got talking and there's kind of almost two types of people. It's a mini bone in bone out. Are you bone in or bone out on spending the night at other people's places? Some people that say, Hey man, it's my bed or nothing. 410-583-105-7. You bone in or bone out and why about spending the night over someone's places. And also there's a friend of mine who's associated with a non-profit that I want to talk about as well. 410-583-105-7. And that's next on the fan. It's T-bone time here on a Tuesday, TMI with T-I-M on the floor is yours. Sleepover talk. Yeah, TMI right now. 410-583-105-7. You bone in on sleepover, staying the night over someone's house or you bone out on it. Do you want your own bed? Do you want your own pillows? Do you want just your own house? Well, we were over Chuck Bucks. Yeah, it was George Clooney's house on Lake Como, but in Ocean City area. And it was, it was unbelievable. I mean, he really, it was, it was really a ton of bedrooms. We had our own twin beds. Yes, it was, it was very. Twin bed action. Very cold in that room. Oh, I love to. Which is always welcome. I sleep hot. Chuck was very nice. He got his drink. Cooked for us. Who cooked for us. Insisted on buying us ice cream. Yeah, got us custard on the way home. I even got some Jimmy's on there. Oh, Jimmy's. So for me, and I'm assuming you're the same way, Ken. I am bone in on staying the night over someone's house. I don't know if this is an age thing, me. Well, we're a good age. That's what I'm saying. A latter 20s right now, but I've slept on floors. I've slept on couches. I just like having a good time late night over a friend's house. You are about having a good time. Yes, I am. Down to clown. Yes, you are. So I am very much bone in on the sleepover. So for me, I have, and I'm a special kind of guy. I went to sleepover camp for a long time. I went to school where I slept there, prep school. You're well at your house. So I had sleepovers as young kids at friends' houses. I can sleep. I have one superpower. I can sleep almost anywhere. I can sleep standing up. I can sleep on a couch. I can sleep on a love seat. I can sleep in a chair. I don't care. Just give me some place and I'll fall asleep. So yeah, I'm all in. I don't mind sleeping at a people's place. Yeah. And some people are like very, they need to be in there. Margie came in there and I can sleepover. Oh, really? So is Margie someone who would not be counting on? I don't know if she's anti-sleepover, but she hates it. I can fall asleep so easily anywhere. Yeah. I mean, some people, like I said, they just want their own bed. I mean, Ben, are you bone in or bone out on staying over someone's spot? I'm bone in. I'm fine. Slaying wherever, really. He bragged the other day about sleeping somewhere else. He did. Well, I mean, his house doesn't have any power. I got to stay in my girlfriend's house. It was nice. There we go. There it is. This house didn't have any power. I was in the same boat staying in my parents the prior week as well. So no, I just, I like staying late over someone's house. I mean, that's where it's, you know, I have to good times roll till 1, 2 in the morning. And then, you know, I don't feel like driving. And if it's like far away, I got some friends in Frederick. I'm not driving an hour back to Baltimore from Frederick at 1 or 2 in the morning. I'm staying over the night. You're doing some drinking Olympics. I do. Well, that will be happening sometime soon. That's true. 4, 10, 5, 8, 3, 1, 5, 7, if you want to text in. But before we step out, a friend of mine is on the board for this non-profit. It's called Stanley Snacks. And their slogan is, "We offer hope one snack at a time." And the reason I'm bringing this up now is with the school year rapidly approaching. What is it, a couple of weeks away? Some places. Yeah, sooner. School starts. Stanley Snacks, they provide healthier snacks for Baltimore students. In the Baltimore metro area, approximately 1 in 3 children arrive and leave school hungry. Stanley Snacks fills the hunger gap in Baltimore by providing healthier snacks to schools to distribute to students in need. They've worked with 17-plus schools receiving free, healthier snacks for their students. Over 7,000 students have been fed through this program. Heck, they were just the hometown heroes for the Ravens in the pre-season opener. So if you're looking to donate to a great cause, StanleySnacks.org is how you can find them. StanleySnacks.org. And before we step out, we did get a caller on today's TMI question. Joey isn't perry, all Joey. You're on the fan. Hey, what's up, Tim? How you doing, fellas? What's up? So, you know, when it comes to adult sleepovers, it all depends on who's house you're sleeping at, in my opinion. Because, like, my cousin, I go over, visit her in Jersey. She is the CEO of Special Colors. She has a spare bedroom. She has a wine cellar. And it's amazing. But then I go up to granite up in New Hampshire and then I'm sharing a couch with my buddy. And I got to speak my face. And then someone says an alarm clock for 4.30 in the morning. And it's the worst experience of my life. So it all depends on who you're staying with and where you're staying. Joey, that is a great point. And that's why we go back to Chuck. I mean, look, that was a house you would want to spend the night at, man. I mean, there were many sleeping options. So many sleeping options. So many bedroom. Yes. So, yeah, there are some. Yeah. And not all houses and sleeping arrangements are created equal. They wouldn't mention he made us breakfast in the morning. He made us eggs. He had the chocolate croissants. He did not make them. No. They were still good. He baked them the night before. Yeah, that's right. That's for sure. He baked them the night before. It's very, very appreciative. It was a very nice situation for us. And I hope you guys had a chance to listen yesterday with Bobby DePaul. Because if you're a Ravens fan, he was dropping a lot of knowledge. Ravens just getting off the practice field today at one winning drive coming up next. A little purple rain in the forecast. We'll hear from John Harbaugh and Calvin Noy from yesterday as their practice is wrapped up. That's next here on the fan. Today's episode is sponsored by NerdWallet's Smart Money Podcast.
