It is Master versus Apprentice on Sunday night football.

Packers, Steelers, a crossover Thursday starts right now.

You are locked on NFL crossover.

Part of the Locked on podcast network.

Your team every day.

Hello and welcome to crossover Thursday here on the Locked-on Podcast Network.

I'm Chris Carter of Locked-on Steelers.

He's Peter Pukowski of Lockdown Packers, and it's Steelers Packers on Sunday night football,

a big time matchup, of course, legendary quarterback facing the team that he was legendary with. We'll get into all that in a bit. But first, remind you this show is brought to you on CrossFit Thursday. As always, by prize picks. Download the prize picks have today. You go locked on NFL and you get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup. Peter, both sides seem to be playing down the, it's not a revenge game. There's no, there's no noise there. Nothing at all. No, we're past that. We're happy. No, of course not. Why would, why would anyone think there would be any issues? Why would Aaron Rodgers ever hold a grudge? That That is just that would be so unlike him to do that.

It was funny because David Bactiari mentioned this, that it was going to happen that Aaron Rogers was going to say all the right things. And Matt LaFleur was going to say all the right things.

And Jordan Love was going to say all the right things. But you would not be a human being

if you didn't feel it a little, right? Like you would just, you would not be a red-blooded American man

if you did not feel it just a little bit here, right? Because, and, and, you know, you could,

you could be anyone. If you're a competitor, you want this game a little bit more. They can say whatever they want. This game is going to mean a little bit more. I feel bad that they're going to put them in those horrible throwback uniforms for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Oh, they look so bad, Bader. Chris, why did they do that? Why did they? Aaron Rogers, you get one shot at playing

the Packers and you're going to play in the, come on. This should have been the 2010 Super Bowl rematch in terms of uniforms. Like, what are we doing? This is nonsense. The Steelers, whenever they want to go to these alternate jerseys, the problem is all the good jerseys for the Steelers are classic looking. So like if you're thinking selling jerseys, you got to go with the crazy bumblebee look or like this look that looks. I have the same problem with the Packers, Chris, because I'm just like the Packer jerseys are the throwbacks. It's fine. This is the jersey. This has been the jersey from time immemorial. Like why are we doing And, and even more so in a situation like this, but you're so right. And, and even with Jordan Love, who Aaron Rogers, by the way, treated with, it is, I have been a critic for those Steelers fans listening that are not familiar with my work. For those of you not familiar with my game, I have been very critical of Aaron Rogers over the years.

And that's not going to be news to my listeners at all.

But one thing that he did that I will say is more mature than I would say

98% of people would act is he resented the hell out of the Jordan Love pick.

And he never, ever took it out on Jordan Love.

And that is an incredible testament to maybe a person's ability to compartmentalize.

I don't know.

But he always directed that anger at the Packers, not Jordan Love.
