Summary

In today's episode, Ryan vents about his recording disaster before diving into the whirlwind of Packers preseason overreactions. From positive fans saying "it doesn't matter" to doomers calling for firings after one exhibition game, Ryan digs into why both extremes miss the mark. He uses hard data to break down what preseason results actually mean for regular season success β€” for teams and individual players β€” and why context, history, and actual evidence matter more than one sloppy August performance. Plus, notes from Matt LaFleur's postgame presser, injury updates, and a look at the most overblown narratives in Packers Nation.

analyst is always ryan schlip blah blah blah blah shut up um boy oh boy i am i am awfully pissed i recorded this entire podcast already it's done i already did it whole thing the only thing i didn't do was add the outro music export the project and go about my day why i don't know but what happened well my stupid idiot freaking computer i i i swear i don't know if this is a new Windows thing or what, but I swear it's once a month, if not once a week, where they're like, hey, man, we got to restart your computer. No, you don't. Yeah, we got to do updates. No, you don't. Yeah, yeah, big updates. Big, big changes, man, big changes coming. I just, you know, I leave my computer on, so I'll come downstairs and I have to re-log in. Everything's shut down.

0:58.0

I'm like, I'm like, how freaking it did it again? So it just did an update. And then I start seeing, hey, pick a day to do an update. Pick a day to shut your computer. I'm fine. How about Sunday when I'm sleeping or whatever? It just is what it is.

1:44.3

Come down here. Didn't do it. Instead, I get a message. Okay, we're going to reboot your computer and, you know, wait an hour is there. No, go away, go away, go away, go away. Did the whole podcast, go upstairs, going to make some chicken thighs. We're making chicken thighs. I freaking love chicken thighs chicken thighs on the freaking freaking grill, char them up, put some barbecue, got the rice ready to rock and roll, whatever. Just letting the barbecue set. Come downstairs. I'm just going to real quick say goodbye to everybody. Thanks for listening. Thanks for tuning in. Here's your freaking music. And then I'm going to export it. Then I'm going to go upstairs and we're going to finish this thing. Come downstairs. Hey, good news. I rebooted your computer even though you asked me 5,000 times not to do it. So now we got these amazing updates. Oh, aren't you so happy? I'm like, well, that sucks. But, you know, usually when my, you know, thing is sitting here for a long time, it'll kind of auto save.

2:04.3

So I'm like, let me boot up freaking audacity. It's the name of the thing I used to record and see where it left off. Maybe some of it got cut off. Open it, just blank. like bro you're not even going to prompt me to say hey would you like usually it's like would

2:18.0

you like to recover one of these 5,000 things here? And I got to sort through them all, whatever, nothing. So I go into the folder. Like, you got anything in here? Open up one. It's from a long time ago. It's from last year, apparently. I don't know what the heck this is. So I get rid of it, close it. They're like, would you like to save it? And like, no, no thanks. Then it's like, okay, so you want

2:37.6

none of these. Deletes them all. Like, oh my God. Oh. And you know, if this was July 3rd, I would just

2:49.9

skip today. I'd just be like, screw it. It's not a big deal. I'm

2:53.5

just not doing it. I can't do that. We just had a Packer game. Can't be skipping stuff.

2:59.1

And I have to do after dark. So I had a three podcasts today, including this one, which I already

3:04.9

did. So, um, as pissy as I was in the earlier podcast, it might be even

3:12.0

more so today. Um, I can tell you pretty confidently what we're going to talk about, which is a

3:16.7

rare, uh, situation. So anyways, I know you don't freaking care, but I need a moment to vent

3:22.0

about how absolutely annoying this is. So, um,

3:25.9

hopefully the timing of this all works out again, but we're not going to end up having time,

3:32.8

presumably, we didn't last time, for the PFF grades, because what I wanted to discuss is

3:40.5

a freaking epidemic.

3:43.4

And I will acknowledge that it's hard, how can I say this?

3:48.0

It's hard to get right, but it's also easy to not get wrong.

3:53.0

And that is the reaction to preseason.

3:56.5

I think it's hard to nail down exactly what the right response is,

4:02.0
