Obviously coming up on Sunday afternoon. Well, actually, right around noon central time as the Packers are set to face the Jacksonville Jaguars. First things first. So, Emilio, how was your day, man? How are we doing? We're good to go closing in on game day here. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Excited. Nice, beautiful day out.

With 70, some breeze. I was sweating a little bit. Yanked a tree out, you know, basic stuff. Just trying to get things winterized. It seems like it's happening early this year for sure. Yeah, not that kind of tree. You go, you know, wacky backer heads. we're just talking about normal landscape and stuff.

Eric Sutherland's in the chat.

He parked up just now, I guarantee it. you old wacky backer heads. We're just talking about normal landscape and stuff.

Eric Sutherland's in the chat. He parked up just now, I guarantee it. And it's pretty cool. We got Thursday night football on the night. We'll kind of give you guys updates as we go through the show here. As the Minnesota Vikings are taking on the L.A. Rams, sounds like Cooper Cup and Pooka Kooka Nukkah are playing, I believe. So that's going to be really, really interesting there for sure.

Let's see.

We got Jeff in the chat says, Jeff Silki says, Half is so awesome on the podium today, as usual. Yes, sir. And I didn't grab any of the soundbots, but I'm open to talk about it. If you guys want to put in the chat, like your biggest takeaway from that, things you're excited about with'll hit on it for sure i know you listened to it amelia you were kind of doing some drops there earlier as we first logged on here yeah what was your general

takeaway from uh from half at the podium today anything stick out to you uh well i i love that he

just came flat out and said you know me and me and, me and Salah basically talked,

you know, every single, every single week. It's not like it's a weird thing seeing him in the hallway. It's, I'm sure, halfly knew before, you know, after Matt got off the phone with him, he probably called half and was like, hey, man, you know, I'm coming over. It's, yeah, exactly one of his best friends in coaching.

And they ask, he's like,

if you have a good idea on a blitz,

why would I not take that and, It's exactly one of his best friends in coaching. And they ask, he's like, if you have a good idea on a blitz,

why would I not take that and try to use it?

If it's going to be possible for our players in a situation or that specific situation,

let's go.

He's here to win.

W-I-N, that's all he cares about.

And I absolutely love that because the players buy it. You know what I mean? It's not like he's not just messing around for fun. And you see when he's talking, he's like, all right, well, I'm up in the booth running my call on my plays while the defense is on the field, call my plays, call my plays. All right, we got him off the field. He's like, I don't even get to watch Matt Cook.

You know what I mean?

Like, he doesn't even get to watch the offense do.

He's sitting there looking at an iPad for the next five minutes while we're, while we're, you know, wondering what, what Jay Love's going to do and who's going to catch the next ball. and he's over there scouting what play I'm going to call up this this and that and. And then by the time he looks up, he's back on defense. So it's not like it ever stops for him. And I just love that determination that he has. Yeah. I completely agree, man. And again, he's definitely not threatened by anyone. As Ron Samble says here, half ain't threatened by anyone. You know, he's been a head coach. And he's, he's approaching this from a head coach's perspective, right? And I know he's a head coach in college, and it's very different from the NFL, I got you. But when you see things from that global perspective and then you step back into a coordinator role, I can only imagine, you know, it's like, Amelia, you're a business owner. I'm a business owner.
