We are back, folks here on the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050 WTCA, online at the big 1050.com, Sam Webb, Mr. Ira Weintraub on the other side and joining us as he does every single Wednesday.

Top of the 9 o'clock hour, Steve Clark for the midweek peak with Steve. Good morning, my friend. How are you?

Sam, I'm doing better than Bill Belichick's girlfriend this morning.

Why, pray, tell, are you doing better than Bill Belichick's girlfriend?

Bill's probably not feeling all that great today and probably need some support.

I happen to think that's probably the case a lot with

Bill Belichick and his girlfriend, Steve Clark. I think Bill needs a little assistance, but,

you know. He needs some love. He needs some love because he got no love from the Hall of Fame

Football Committee, which was kind of surprising.

I didn't know the NFL Hall of Fame turned into Cooper's Tap overnight.

I thought the NFL Hall of Fame let a lot of people in that I've never even heard of before.

And all of a sudden now they've become real sticklers about who should get in the hallowed halls of

canton uh that is a complete 180 from what i've grown up to see in the NFL hall of thing

that's crazy you got gamblers you got uh performance enhancing drugs i mean you got and this is what

you choose to take a stand on, a six-time Super Bowl

winner? Like, give me a break, man. That criteria happened in the AFC and NFC championship

games last weekend. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I think. Yeah, I just kind of surprised.

I think maybe they wanted to stick it to Bill and, you know, make them wait a year or something like that.

I mean, he was eventually going to get in, but I just found it kind of surprising.

Yeah, it's ridiculous.

I wonder how he reacts when they finally put him in.

Does he have like a protest?
