Summary
Big Sal from Peshtigo has questions. Serious questions. One week ago the Packers were the youngest team in the entire NFL — the whole LEAGUE — and every analyst on the planet said they needed veterans. Fine. So Gute goes out and signs a 28-year-old, a 29-year-old, and a 33-year-old in the same offseason. Sal's not mad at the players. He's mad at the whiplash.
- Javon Hargrave, Zaire Franklin, and Benjamin St-Juste are quality football players — Sal wants that on the record before he loses his mind
- The real panic: is Green Bay pivoting from a five-year rebuild to a win-now window without telling anyone?
- Tomek's gym membership, Gary's brother-in-law Denny's restaurant-car wash disaster, and a door-county road trip without GPS all make appearances
- Sal's daughter asked if the Hargrave signing was good. He sat in silence for four full seconds. She walked out. She has more peace than he does.
If Gute's right and this works, Big Sal will eat every word with a fork and a napkin. But somebody better hand him a north star before November.

| 0:00.0 | Let me tell you something, Pack Nation. |
| 0:12.0 | So, we were the youngest team in the National Football League last season. |
| 0:17.0 | Not one of the youngest, the youngest, dead last and average roster age, and all offseason long, all offseason. |
| 0:26.4 | Every analyst, every talking head, every Jagloff on the internet was saying the same thing. |
| 0:32.2 | Too young. |
| 0:33.1 | This team is too young. |
| 0:34.8 | They need veterans. |
| 0:35.8 | They need proven guys. |
| 0:37.2 | They need leadership in the locker |
| 0:38.6 | room. That is why they lost games they should have won. Ute. Too much youth. We hear you. |

| 1:08.2 | I want to make that clear right now. |
| 1:09.3 | Hargrave? |
| 1:13.3 | I am thrilled about Hargrave. Two-time pro-bola. |
| 1:20.8 | Eleven sacks in 2022. Under Jonathan Gannon in Philadelphia, this man was a wrecking ball. |
| 1:29.6 | Zaire Franklin, the guy led the entire NFL in tackles two years ago. Leading tackler in the whole league. That is not a bum they dragged out of a retirement home. |
| 1:33.0 | And St. Juice, good corner. |
| 1:35.4 | Nice addition to the secondary. |
| 1:37.5 | These are quality football players. |
