That's what you guys have us here for it.

0:34.7

We can basically be there for each other.

0:36.4

We can all get all of our negative feelings out of the way because Jeremy this season did not start off the way the idiot was expected to. But we're going to get into that and a whole lot more.

Ryan. our great two co-host. First and foremost, we have your senior editor over at pride of Detroit.com, Ryan Matthews at Ryan underscore POD. Ryan, how are you feeling? You okay? Should I give you like, should you be my first virtual hug? I appreciate the virtual hug, Nico. You know, a lot of people came up to me at school today and they said, oh, how are you doing, man? And it was like, well, at least I'm not Dan Campbell. At least I don't have to answer for what happened on Sunday. I could be worse. I could be Dan Campbell today. I was going to say you could be honestly anybody on the coaching staff right now because it seems like no one was exempt from getting a finger pointed at them, Jeremy, but hey, that's the kind of the thing

1:29.7

Look, I don't think Packer fans should have a right to live in Michigan. So to have a message come across like first thing in the morning like, hey, Lions fans quiet this morning and it's like I have to remind myself I can't say hey I'll fight you in the parking lot because that'll get me sent to Ajar

2:24.7

But I mean I think that HR meeting is like well he's a Packers fan. Okay meeting over

2:32.2

Yeah everything everything's all. Everything's all good.

2:34.4

Everything's all good. Back to work. I think that's justified. There's, there's a lot to unpack from

2:39.5
