Hey, Giant Fans. Welcome to The Giant Insider podcast. My name is Jerry Foley. I'm the senior editor of the Giant Insider newspaper. And with me, as always, is the beat writer in the heart of Giants Nation. The hardest working man on Twitter. Chris Bizzignano. Hey, buddy. How you doing? How's everything going?

Doing good, bro. Camp's moving along, Jerry, right? Week three.

Yeah, tons of news, man. That's why we're dropping this a little early. I'm sorry to interrupt. Yeah. No, no, no. Week three, a train camp, fan fest tomorrow night. Jets, Saturday night. Can you believe there's a preseason game already Saturday night? Can't believe it. Very excited. I mean, incredible. It's incredible how fast time is flying. And before you know, Jerry, you know we're going to be talking about Denver. Just a matter of time, right? Yeah, yeah. So, look, a lot of things happening. And, you know, we talk about it a lot in a podcast, you know, Twitter, the whole deal. You know, I know you were on a radio station this morning i was on one yesterday and i didn't realize it jerry like the guy yesterday on esp and up in rochester was like man there's a lot of stuff going on your camp chris you know and he's starting to get into this and i had you know being around it every day it's like i think you don't realize it until you like step off and a guy

says something a guy brings up like holy crap this hasn't been a pretty active camp

a lot of stuff going on between fights and judges camp who's retiring say quaint you know I'm like wow

this has been an active two and a half weeks you know I listen to it great job by the way

and what's what's interesting is the the view from the outside of Judge.

Like, they almost don't know what to believe. Like, is he a hard ass? Is he just a good coach? Just a normal coach? Like, what's the deal? They hear about the fight. And, you know, the narrative is different from a lot of people. So I, you know, we all appreciate the work you put in to kind of spread the truth.

But it's just interesting to to hear those perspectives and to kind of like ask like, what the hell's going on over there? Yeah. I get, you know, from the outside, Jerry, a lot of people like when they talk to like me or you, when they talk to some other beat, right, they're like, hey, what's going on over there in camp? You know what I mean? I mean, all we read about is this, that, this stuff.

And you kind of got to like kind of clarify what hey what's going on over there in camp you know what I mean I mean all we read about is this that this stuff and you kind of got to like kind of

clarify what the hell's going on you know there's a lot of bullshit out there yeah

you know there's a certain out of the judges like you know you know you know general

Patton you know and you know you know you know in a battle to bulge you know I mean

come on you know so stop so so it's good that you go on and you talk, you can say like it is. I'm sure you did that this morning when you're on a radio station and, and I don't even know if they asked you about judge. I don't know. Did they, Jerry, they even get it. No, no. It's more about Sequin, which I always give you credit. I'm like, well, my partner has been saying, he's made ready week one. It's just a matter of workload, but he's been consistent with this. So, there you go. So I guess that'll lead us right into it, Jerry. Obviously, the big story, right? Yeah. Of the week is Mr. Barkley. I mean, there's no question about it. Sequin back. he gets at, now, Jerry, I thought it was, to me it surprised me.

I thought it was much, it was much quicker than I thought he was going to get

activated off the public list.

I thought it would be like the third week of camp, excuse me, by the third preseason game.

Yeah, sorry.

Not the third week.

We're in the third week now, which we're making around the six weekseason game. Yeah, sorry. Not the third week. We're in the third week now.

Which we're making around the six week at camp.

So that surprised me that he activated that quick.
