| 0:34.5 | I'm Peter Bukowski and I cover the Packers for The Leap, a newsletter I would love for you to subscribe to. Thanks to everyone who makes Lockdown Packers, their first listen every day. We hope you like starting your day with us as much as we like starting our day with you here on the Lockdown Podcast Network, the number one sports podcast network. So excited to get into the show today, I could barely get the words out. We're going to |
| 0:55.6 | answer your questions, of course. This is a Friday news dump, but we have actual breaking news, |
| 1:01.4 | just moments ago as we record this. The Greenup Hackers, it was announced, or at least it was |
| 1:07.5 | reported, are releasing kicker Brandon McManannis and i don't have to tell you |
