NFL News
The boys have a couple of items to discuss prior to diving into the show
Carl Nassib – they give they thoughts on Carl Nassib coming out last week and what impact it will have on the NFL and Sport in general.
Washington Football Team – They look at the ‘punishment’ dished out to the WFT following the report on the toxic workplace, and wonder if actions over the last 18 months spared them heavier punishment. As a fan, Mainz is passionate about this and you will hear why.

Pre-Research Predictions
As this is the start of the WLMD preseason, the boys wanted to give some initial predictions prior to all the research that will go into the division previews. Mainz and Dutts have 3 predictions each that without research they believe in. They will come back to them in the final show before the season to see if they still believe them. Mainz fears for the Steelers, Texans and NFC East coaches. Dutts won’t quit on the Vikings, loves the Browns and hates the Lions. Enjoy!
