are power ranking. Our overreactions after week two. Last week, we're like, everyone's chill. It's one week underreacting. Week two, honestly, we've seen everything we need to see, right? Take care. We are done taking a breath. We are done underreacting. We're ready to go like full-throated on this, which is also the weirdest expression.

0:38.1

But we're doing it.

0:40.8

We're going for it.

Paul. we're ready to go like full-throated on this, which is also the weirdest expression.

0:38.1

But we're doing it. We're going for it. Pause. Yeah. Yeah, big pause. No, but actually, though, we're going to panic. So yeah, we're going to go through, we're going to do our overreactions. We're serious, though. These are things that actually we at least kind of actually believe after two weeks. and we're trying to believe.

1:18.1

It's more than a spacious interior.

1:20.0

It's more than being able to navigate difficult terrain.

1:22.7

And it's way more than driving farther than you ever thought possible.

1:26.3

It's the all-new Hyundai-Paliseid hybrid,

1:28.8

However, first, we actually have to do some breaking news here. We're recording this Tuesday afternoon.

I don't know of other coaches have had an injury like this during a game, but they've at least lied about it successfully. Didn't a coach recently tear their Achilles on the sideline or something?

But this is, well, I'm one to joke after I just like hurt my hamstring in a bachelor party, but like it's, it's a little funny. He was going to call a timeout. Yeah, he was running to, time out towards planner fascia. Damn, that hurts. Craig, how do you feel about your brother, Sean McVeigh? I feel bad for my guy.
