Welcome to the 40 for 40 for the cotton bowl. We are going to do podcasts for every bowl game this year and talk about them as long as we like.

There's one thing that we have to start off with because this is a game involving Western Michigan versus Wisconsin.

And for that, I will throw to Holly Anderson. What was PJ Fleck talking about in a press conference today?

The thing about PJ Fleck right now at the end of yet another successful season in Kalamazoo is that as long as we've been on this bandwagon and if there were ever a time we got on a bandwagon before literally anybody else, it's with this program. I think we can all agree.

And at this point, you know, we've got a comfort level with PJ Fleck and PJ Fleck interest taxonomies that like with Mike Leach, you know, we can just simply skip to the things he was talking about. We don't have to add context.

We don't have to, you know, dress it up, explain, well, you know, PJ Fleck is a literal crazy person because you know, we can just dive in. And of course, that's why this report this morning from our friend David oven did not surprise anyone who would blink at reading the following PJ Fleck talked at link to his team yesterday about Princess Diana. Why and how she was different and her death.

I mean, this does answer the important question of how did Western Michigan have the year that they had and several interesting coaching jobs opened up and we seem to have come to the end of the coaching carousel with PJ Fleck still at Western Michigan. And the answer is because because he.

You know, he wants to be near his kid. There's like a family thing there.

There's that and I'm willing to buy that, but I'm also willing to buy that when somebody asks him like, oh, what's your long term plan for insert program here? He went on a diet tribe about Princess Diana and how she was different.

There's also a better than even chance that when asked that same question, he started talking about how he's going to be at Western Michigan until the heat death of the universe and that in that moment, he actually meant it and means to live until the heat death of the universe.

This also creates one further and slurry benefit for us if I can jump back to Princess Diana for just a second because you are all now as of this moment, imagining PJ Fleck coaching Kate Middleton through childbirth.

I was going to go with Sarah Ferguson, but that's fair.

Thanks. Thanks PJ. It's a beautiful baby. Thanks.

Yeah, PJ Fleck getting Western Michigan to this bowl to compete against Wisconsin.

Roll the crown. Roll the crown.

Shit, that actually has a double meaning with childbirth and the monarch.

Yeah, you put your thanks to you. Wow, man.

Back with the dumpster. I'm sorry. I talked about your vagina, Kate Middleton. Yeah, he did. He did.

Thinking of back flipping into dumpsters, this game has taken place at AT&T Stadium in lovely Arlington, Texas.

The dumpster of a city, a great stadium. I'm on a polygently defend that.

No, there's a jail in it. We love it.

Yeah, there's a jail. There's a four dealership. There's a place where you can buy.
