        Farhan joins Sean and Tim once again as the Franchise Physician, ready to help rehab teams that didn't place 1st in 2020.

        • Vanillaroma - A team everyone likes a little bit with some good players, but no one great (34:56) and
        • Arrested Development - A team that's always building for the future (42:47).
