I 117 00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:56.199 think we'll be starting shortly too. 118 00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:58.879 The slows as soon as we can fill them up, 119 00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:01.879 and says some guys that in it today, and we will. 120 00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:04.480 You know, we'll run this tournament for as long as 121 00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:07.040 it takes to get to fill it. We're not in 122 00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:09.560 any hurry to get to fill it. However, the first 123 00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:13.079 live event is June fifteenth, one that you are playing 124 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:15.839 in as well, Bulky.

Great memories of 127 00:06:22.839 --> 00:06:27.360 that horse. Unfortunately, that's probably the last derby winner I'll 128 00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:28.079 called properly. 129 00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:31.639 Wow, it happens.

So check that out at kf 141 00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:11.600 FSC dot com. 142 00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:15.079 Hey, Rubio gave us some plugs. Yeah you're not using 143 00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:17.319 that's a good idea, yeah, he. 144 00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:21.560 He uh he is. In the If anybody knows anybody 145 00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:23.839 who's in the T shirt game that can come up 146 00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:27.480 with a silhouette T shirt of my beard and Pharaoh's hair, 147 00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:30.000 I think that would be because that's I think that's 148 00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.399 iconic in the in the high stakes fantasy football industry, 149 00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:37.040 as far as podcast go, your your cabbage on top 150 00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:41.120 and and my soup strainer, my beard on my face, 151 00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:42.160 it's it's iconic. 152 00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:44.720 You can't expect demand to walk around with a plaining 153 00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:46.240 beard book, that's true. 154 00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:50.439 I can't expect Derrick Henry to never slow down Faro. 155 00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:53.439 Apparently that's what the Ravens expect him to do as well, 156 00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:56.759 because they have signed him to a two year, thirty 157 00:07:56.839 --> 00:08:02.240 million dollar contract extension. Per Ian Rappaport from the NFL Network, 158 00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:04.279 he is the first running back over the age of 159 00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:09.800 thirty to make fifteen million a year. Last offseason, he 160 00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:13.480 signed a two year, sixteen million dollar deal, ran roughshot 161 00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:17.160 over the NFL and was unbelievable nineteen hundred plus rushing yard, 162 00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:21.600 sixteen touchdowns. It got him the Rays and this probably 163 00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:23.240 I don't want to say, you know, there are no 164 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:25.839 guarantees in life, but I would say this is as 165 00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:30.199 close to a guarantee to give me ah that Derrick 166 00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:33.159 Henry is probably going to finish his career as a 167 00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:37.240 Baltimore role. Yes, that's all I'm going with there. Now 168 00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:41.559 in the Big Gorilla Tournament. Over the last week, we 169 00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:45.039 have seen Derrick Henry's ADP on Fantasy Mojo at Fantasy 170 00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:48.200 Mojo on ex fantasymojo dot com.

Derreck Henry right behind Devon ah Chan 175 00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:02.559 and Christian McCaffrey. He's going right ahead of Jonathan Taylor 176 00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:05.840 and Bucky Irving running back seven at the two four, Farrell, 177 00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:08.879 When you look at this as a two year extension, 178 00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:11.919 does this give you the warm fuzzies enough to say, Hey, 179 00:09:12.759 --> 00:09:15.240 maybe he's not great in twenty twenty six, but if 180 00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:17.480 the Ravens are giving him a two year contract right now, 181 00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:19.600 he's sure his heck should be good in twenty twenty 182 00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:21.519 five and you can feel good at taking him at 183 00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:22.159 the two four. 184 00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:25.039 He'll be good until he decides to hang up his 185 00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:28.519 helmet and his shoes. This player knows that there's two 186 00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.279 themes that we have, at least coming from me on 187 00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:33.679 the show. And I've seen the beard and the head 188 00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:35.759 shaking in simultaneous fashion. 189 00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:36.519 Is that. 190 00:09:38.159 --> 00:09:42.120 Derrick Henry is a must draft player for your fantasy 191 00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:42.840 football team. 192 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:43.960 He is. 193 00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:49.679 And we've had commentary, especially from the pros, which you know, 194 00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:53.960 we love arguing with the pros come July, especially from 195 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:57.279 the pros about he can't keep going. Well, yes he can. 196 00:09:57.480 --> 00:09:59.799 Me the main reason, the second theme that we've talked 197 00:09:59.799 --> 00:10:03.440 to about is what all players are doing in the 198 00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:07.480 league to lengthen their careers, and Derrick Henry is the 199 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:13.039 foremost and the most well informed athlete about nutrition and 200 00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:15.679 training and what he needs to do, and he's been 201 00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:18.879 doing it for a long time. He's thirty one years old, 202 00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:23.000 five point nine yards of carry. Last year we talked 203 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:25.240 about also the fact that he would go to Baltimore 204 00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:29.639 and play behind an offensive line that is one of 205 00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:32.960 the better ones in the league and against defenses that 206 00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:36.759 were challenged with the idea of Lamar Jackson being a 207 00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:41.440 running quarterback and you know, just they didn't use it often, 208 00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:44.519 but they have a three hundred and eleven pound fullback 209 00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:48.919 and they used it often enough and to run in 210 00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:52.600 front of Henry. I love everything about this and I 211 00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:58.799 don't understand. When I looked at the kffsc our first 212 00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:02.759 main event draft of the year, I do understand Jon Robinson. 213 00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:06.480 Jean Robinson put up some very good numbers last year 214 00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:09.320 and has a chance to catch sixty balls. Barkley, of course, 215 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:12.600 Gibbs as an exciting player, but then it gets then 216 00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:16.120 the other players that went in front of him, Genty, 217 00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:20.120 who is yet to do anything in the NFL. That 218 00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:22.320 doesn't trouble me, but he's doing it for a team 219 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:27.279 that's got a lot of holes to fill. A Chan McCaffrey. 220 00:11:27.759 --> 00:11:31.279 All those players drafted in front of Henry, Chuck Root, 221 00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.159 our good friend Chuck Root in the kffsc waited and 222 00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:38.759 at the two to eight he nabbed Henry and maybe 223 00:11:38.919 --> 00:11:41.759 is on his way to the championship. So I think, 224 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:44.240 if you're playing fantasy football and you can get Henry 225 00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:46.639 on your roster, do it sooner rather than later. It's 226 00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:47.679 the best movie you can make. 227 00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:50.000 I think. The other thing to keep in mind too, 228 00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:52.679 the most significant thing that the Ravens did in the 229 00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:55.799 offseason as far as skill position players go, was adding 230 00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:59.120 DeAndre Hopkins at wide receiver. That's not a needle mover 231 00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:01.519 for me. And they did nothing in the draft to 232 00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:05.200 address any receivers, running backs, tight ends. So I'd like 233 00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:07.519 to think that the offense will be very, very similar 234 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:09.960 to what it was last year. And I know he 235 00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:12.960 probably won't hit nineteen hundred rushing yards again, he doesn't 236 00:12:13.039 --> 00:12:14.759 have to. At the two zero four, he could definitely 237 00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:17.600 pay off for the first time. I maybe taking Derrick 238 00:12:17.679 --> 00:12:20.600 Henry in a lot of draft Farrell because I do 239 00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:24.240 like this ADP for him right now too. Speaking of 240 00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:27.919 AFC North bruising running backs, let's talk Caleb Johnson here. 241 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:32.919 Mike Defamo, who covers Pittsburgh for The Athletic, called Caleb 242 00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:36.639 Johnson a quote schematic fit for the Steelers. Now that's 243 00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:40.080 not the interesting part about this. He was a third 244 00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:44.039 round pick. Last month. He was listed as a co 245 00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:48.960 starter on the depth chart alongside Jalen Warren. This is 246 00:12:49.159 --> 00:12:52.440 like old school meat and potatoes, Mike Tomlin. I mean, 247 00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:55.480 where you don't hand rookies anything, right. They got to 248 00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:57.840 work for it, even if they're the most talented player, 249 00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:01.320 they still got to work for He's already listed as 250 00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:06.000 co starter coach starter with Jalen Warren. And you think 251 00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:10.000 about Arthur Smith's offense. It's run first and they're going 252 00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:13.000 to use both these running backs. Only three college running 253 00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:16.519 backs last year had more zone rushes than Johnson, and 254 00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:19.720 according to de Fabo, his goals and offseason practices for 255 00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:22.879 Johnson is learn the playbook, earn the coaching staffs trust, 256 00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:26.960 hopefully becoming in every downback sooner rather than later. Now, 257 00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:29.600 pass blocking needs work. Jalen Warren one of the best 258 00:13:29.639 --> 00:13:32.120 pass blocking running backs in the NFL. Pharrell. But the 259 00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:35.360 lead to me here is is this is black and 260 00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:38.519 blue football where rookies have to earn their stripes. And 261 00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:41.519 already Caleb Johnson sitting on top of the draft, on 262 00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:44.799 top of the depth chart for the Steelers. And it's 263 00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:47.919 worth mentioning because Caleb Johnson's mojo right now six to 264 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:50.159 oh eight as running back twenty five, not even being 265 00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:52.879 drafted as a top twenty four running back. This is 266 00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:54.200 juicy to me, not. 267 00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:58.000 Drafted like a co starter. But you know, Bulky, I mean, 268 00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:00.799 you know you're carrying the wood over here called co host. 269 00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:03.279 But you see who's doing all the work. You know it? 270 00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:05.600 It okay, Caleb Johnson. 271 00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:07.360 I love this. 272 00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:10.399 This is perfect. May what do they call it? The 273 00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:16.480 schematic fit. Yes, oh my word, you know. But okay, 274 00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.600 I believe when you draft a player like this, you 275 00:14:19.799 --> 00:14:22.960 you he would be he would fit everywhere else. 276 00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:26.519 If he's gonna fit here, we're not the schematic. Okay, 277 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:29.840 that's maybe that's maybe I'm looking at that too difficult. 278 00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:33.919 Maybe yeah, I probably need to leave that alone. But 279 00:14:34.039 --> 00:14:36.240 what did we say, Bulky. We said that you know, 280 00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:37.240 you can get gent. 281 00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:40.879 Very very early in this draft for NFL teams, but 282 00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:44.240 there will be value throughout this draft at the running 283 00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:46.600 back position and this example of it. They will be 284 00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:51.080 very big things for this player. And yeah, he's going 285 00:14:51.159 --> 00:14:53.879 to carry the rock because all the reasons you said, 286 00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:56.919 there's no reason not to draft this player at value 287 00:14:57.080 --> 00:14:59.720 right now. And he'll be going higher. Let's see him 288 00:14:59.720 --> 00:15:02.120 in the season do some things too, but he'll he'll 289 00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:05.600 be going higher as we head towards Las Vegas and 290 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:09.440 the Paris Hotel at the f FPC main event, he'll 291 00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:12.519 be going uh with with all the Pittsburgh Steeler fans 292 00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:17.039 that we have here in Kentucky, He's likely to be 293 00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:20.200 a higher draft pick here than perhaps even out there. 294 00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:24.200 Yeah, I think there's a there's a curve right where 295 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:27.039 these we start off, you know, hot and heavy in 296 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:30.399 redraft because everybody's got rookie fever from Dynasty, and then 297 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:32.279 it kind of slacks off again. But I think as 298 00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:35.480 we get closer, you know, especially with the Northern Kentucky 299 00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:37.679 and then obviously the Louisville event for kf F s C, 300 00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:40.320 that's when these guys will start building up steam again 301 00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:43.639 as potential league winners. Is Caleb Johnson the potential league winner. 302 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:45.679 I'm not ready to put that moniker on him yet, 303 00:15:45.960 --> 00:15:48.120 but I certainly wouldn't rule that out at this point 304 00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:48.559 of the season. 305 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:51.279 Don't draft him in front of Henry uh No, you 306 00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:52.399 know he. 307 00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:55.960 Wise words. This is why you come a lot. 308 00:15:57.279 --> 00:16:00.879 You're going to introduce our host our yes tonight, but 309 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:04.600 you know, I got to tell you when you talk 310 00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:08.879 about schematic fit, when you prepare for the show with 311 00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:13.559 other guests, I tend to want to dig into some 312 00:16:13.720 --> 00:16:16.039 of the questions and I want to also say what 313 00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:19.399 I'm thinking, what do you think, and and have a 314 00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:21.559 give and take. But we've got a guy coming in 315 00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:26.200 tonight that I would be more like I would try 316 00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:29.960 to be a surgeon and try to dissect this brain 317 00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:35.080 of fantasy football that lives, eats, and loves fantasy football 318 00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:39.480 at such a level that is beyond even our most 319 00:16:39.559 --> 00:16:42.679 passionate players. And you're going to introduce him later, but 320 00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:46.480 I just maybe he'll talk about you know, I've talked 321 00:16:46.480 --> 00:16:49.320 a lot about Henry, and I just made some comments 322 00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.039 that were largely worthless about this player. But there will 323 00:16:53.120 --> 00:17:00.360 be more in depth conversation about every player. This guy 324 00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:04.759 pulls no punches, bulky, and he certainly is is and 325 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.000 not shy to share his opinion. 326 00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:09.720 Yeah, and that's what's so great. And without further ado, 327 00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:12.119 I think we bring him on right now. I'm gonna 328 00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:12.799 bringing on right now. 329 00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:14.680 I think we need your patented introduction. 330 00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:17.160 Well here, here's here's how I'll set it up on 331 00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:19.400 the on the road of his high stakes lowdown. Last 332 00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:22.119 week I had Josh Siegel on, and there are there 333 00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:25.000 are a few players that I've had on these shows before. 334 00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:27.640 Some of them I can I'll take the time to 335 00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:31.839 count up how many league championships they've won in Dynasty, 336 00:17:31.960 --> 00:17:34.240 Big Gorilla, Main Event or whatever. Josh Siegel is not 337 00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:35.960 one of them because he's just won too many of them. 338 00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:39.440 And another player that falls into that category that I 339 00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:42.519 would never sit and count how many league championships this 340 00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:46.200 guy's won in the ffpcuh is tonight's guest. He's just 341 00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:48.799 won too many. I'm not gonna bother with it. I 342 00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:52.000 will introduce him as a guy who's won dozens and 343 00:17:52.119 --> 00:17:55.160 I said, maybe even hundreds. I don't know the exact 344 00:17:55.240 --> 00:17:55.720 number of. 345 00:17:56.799 --> 00:17:57.640 Auditor You don't. 346 00:17:58.079 --> 00:17:59.799 No, I'm not. I'm not an auditor. I'm not I'm 347 00:17:59.839 --> 00:18:03.200 not a math guy. But I'll bring him on right 348 00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:07.599 now as the defending champion of the twenty twenty four 349 00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:10.559 f FPC Genesis League, a league that you saw the 350 00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:13.640 twenty twenty five edition on this program a couple of 351 00:18:13.680 --> 00:18:16.640 weeks ago, as Farrell and I covered it picked by pick, 352 00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:19.240 and we're gonna we're gonna delve into this guy's draft tonight. 353 00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:23.640 Please welcome back onto these airwaves. J T A J himself. 354 00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:26.079 It is mister John Terry John, What is up tonight? 355 00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:27.200 Thanks so much for hanging out. 356 00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:27.960 Look at that. 357 00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:30.519 Hey, how you guys doing Hey, k Hey Farrell. 358 00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:32.880 We're doing good, man, We're doing good. I want to 359 00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:36.160 because because I got long winded in that first segment, 360 00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:38.559 I want to pitch you a couple of the stories 361 00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:41.599 that that we were going to talk about here to 362 00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:44.640 kick things off, and I'll start in Detroit in the 363 00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:47.759 Motor City, Tim twenty men, who covers the Lions. John 364 00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:51.359 said that John Morton, who's the new OC for Detroit 365 00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:54.200 taking order for Ben Johnson, said it's going to quote 366 00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:57.839 be a breakout year for Jamison Williams. Morton said he 367 00:18:58.160 --> 00:19:00.599 was never around somebody as fast as william and then 368 00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:03.079 he corrected himself to say, well, maybe Jamiir Gibbs, because 369 00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:05.160 he's been around Jamior Gibbs so far this season as 370 00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:08.359 well James and Williams last year. I didn't even realize 371 00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:12.920 this just crept over the thousand yard level. Fifty eight catches, 372 00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:16.400 one thousand and one receiving yards, and seven touchdowns, and 373 00:19:16.799 --> 00:19:19.160 I think, and I don't know how much he affects 374 00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:21.519 a mon Ross Saint Brown. Quite frankly, I'm not drafting 375 00:19:21.559 --> 00:19:24.599 a Monross Saint Brown any differently based on this quote. 376 00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:27.960 But I think based on this dude being the OC, John, 377 00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:30.720 the fact that James and Williams is wide receiver thirty 378 00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:33.279 three right now at the six oh eight, he becomes 379 00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:36.319 more intriguing for me. How much stock are you putting 380 00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:39.759 into what James and Williams offensive coordinator is saying about it. 381 00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:42.960 Yeah, I mean, it's definitely a good sign. But I 382 00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:47.759 guess my question would be just how many passing yards 383 00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:52.000 and touchdowns is Detroit going to have? And if there's 384 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:55.920 going to be a substantial increase in his production, where's 385 00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:59.039 it coming from? Because I mean, you got a Monross, 386 00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:04.319 Saint Brown, Laporta, and if all those guys are healthy, 387 00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:09.240 I mean, I don't. I mean, there's no way James 388 00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:11.400 and Williams is going to be like a hundred catch. 389 00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:14.200 Guy, like that's there, you go, there we go. 390 00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:19.839 But he could add some yards and touchdowns. But I 391 00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:20.839 think it depends. 392 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:21.839 I like the player. 393 00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:26.480 I just don't. I'm not going to read too much 394 00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:32.160 into that early season comment from the OC. The only 395 00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:37.000 early season comments I usually pay attention to, or if 396 00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:37.839 they say something. 397 00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:42.319 Negatives and they don't do that often. But you know, guys, 398 00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:47.200 it might be an offensive coordinators idea of a grade 399 00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:51.119 increase of volume could be ten catches. His idea could 400 00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:55.079 be completely different from what we consider a huge increase 401 00:20:55.160 --> 00:20:59.240
