Titans training camp begins with two wins and a loss ahead day one of practice

with Brian. What’s up? It is Esports here live on a Wednesday from Titans training camp. Here we go. Day one of Titans training camp. Gonna have an abbreviated show because Brian Callahan speaks at 8:45 and the first training camp practice of the Cam Ward area starts at 9:05 Central time. We’re at a central St. Thomas Sports Park here off the side next to the radio tents. We’ve got our setup here uh for today. A lot of 8 a.m. practices. So, East, not a lot of live from camp uh shows this year. No. Which I mean, it’s kind of like a catch 22 because it’s also going to be less hot, less I mean, maybe more humid, but less hot overall. But we’re going to have a good show today talking a lot about two wins and a loss the Titans took in their press conference yesterday before training camp officially gets underway. And then uh we’ll play some video from that. Ask you guys what you are most excited to see and hear about as training camp kicks off for this 2025 season. Eastston, tell the people what they got to do here before we officially get this thing rolling. Yeah, good morning, Austin. Good morning, people. You’re right. I I enjoy less heat and I enjoy getting a start on the day earlier. I I don’t love sitting down to write something for the first time at 4 in the afternoon. Really, the only rub is how do we do these morning shows at the same time as practice? But we’re finding a way. If you guys are live with us in the chat, let us know if we’re a little too loud, a little too soft on these microphones. We can adjust that for you guys to make this the optimum viewing experience. But we need you to like the show this morning on Facebook, on YouTube. Hit that like button for us. And then jump in the comments like Hosshi, Eric, Jonathan, Steven. Good morning to you guys. Um I’d imagine a number of you guys from the chat we may even run into here because fans are going to be in attendance today and for most of these practices because they’ve only got a couple of practices here at home before they hit the road. So like the show, jump in the comments, and we uh can get off and rolling here as we have about 30 minutes to break. Yeah. Yeah. You know, uh the the audio is probably okay when no comments have happened. That’s right. Yeah. Usually when the audio is bad, you guys don’t uh waste any time letting us know. Perfect. Let’s get it going officially. Welcome in to AZ Sports here live on a Wednesday. I’m Austin Stanley. He is East Freeze, our Titans reporter for a tozports.com.

Uh Omar asks, “Is training camp open to the public?” Yes. Is it open to the public or is it open to fans? It’s open. Do you have to get tickets? Yeah, you can’t just show up. Yeah, it’s not uh it’s it was open to the public. The these practices, all of them besides the back together weekend at the stadium are no longer open to the public. Not open to the public. All of the public that wanted to come have already decided to come. Yes. But there are still tickets available last I checked to the to the state because there’s, you know, 70,000 seats in there. So, they’re trying to fill it up. You can show up to that. And they’re free, by the way. You have to go and purchase the ticket, but it is for $0 and we can see you on Saturday. There you go. So, that’s Saturday, uh, right there for the welcome to or welcome back, whatever. Welcome back. Welcome back weekend. There you go. Get the branding right. Yeah. Yeah, I’m getting the branding correct on that one. But uh so let’s dive into this because uh the Titans had a lot of different notes to cover in their opening press conference with GM Mike Borggoni and President Chad Brinker. Uh let’s just go ahead and touch off the bat on the update on Will Levis and what these two guys had to say about the Titans quarterback who is now officially out for the entire 2025 season electing himself to have shoulder surgery uh to put him on the shelf. So, here is uh Brinker and Boronzi on Levvis and his situation, really what he was like in the offseason program and what his health was assumed from the team. More on Levis, please. Uh you guys are quick to hold people out when they’ve got a nagging injury or or anything going on at that time of year. Was he full go for you during mini camp and OTAA? Yes, he was full go. So Austin, yesterday I made it clear that I was retiring from talking about Will Leis at yesterday’s press conference. I think that Chad Brinker and Mike Borgansi made it clear that they are retiring from talking about Will Leis. That was kind of the vibe that I got and you heard in those comments. Uh similar I think tone to what the statement the Titans put out. Similar tone to um what I was told from inside the building that morning as they were kind of briefing the media on these things that this was a decision that he made. It is one that is really no, you know, it’s water off of their back as an organization. They’re ready to roll with or without him. They support his decision to try and get healthy in any way he sees best fit and uh they wish him well as he I guess will be around for the next year, but neither seen nor heard. Yeah, it they’re done with it. He’s gone for a while, which you know, there was going to be some extra layers of storylines of trading opportunity. You had talked about like the joint practices in Tampa. Is that an audition for a new team for Will of It? It would have been. It could have been. Would have been, could have been. Uh maybe not the Falcons, but definitely the the Bucks with the joint practice, but that is not going to happen. And I I continue to look back and remember what you were talking about in mini camp. Will Levis making some great throws, making some not great throws, the best throws, bombing the football down the field, looking like he had no issue with his shoulder, and now he has an issue with his shoulder uh that he decided to uh shelf himself. So, uh that is the Will Levis conversation for the day. Now, let’s move on to something that I think is a little bit more positive. Well, I guess a lot more thing could be positive depending on who you are of not This is positive to the Titans football product. This actually matters. Yes. legious snee update on why he is starting on physically unable to perform to c to open camp in his week to week. Here are uh Borganzi and Brinker again situation. You know, this was a initially a quad bruise and he’s now been out for, you know, all of last year and now lingering into this year. Why has that been so troublesome? I mean, he did have a a cleanup on on his knee in in May, um, which set him back a little bit, but he’s he’s making, you know, progress here. He’s really worked hard. He’s been here during the summer. Um, so, you know, he’s headed in the right direction, and like I said, we’re hopeful to get him back here soon. Guys come back from cleanups in May to be ready for the start of camp pretty regularly if if I’m not mistaken. Uh, you saw the other side of the knee in Kansas City where Chiefs gave up on him. I mean, what’s the level of concern with him being able to be a contributor for this team come September, plus with the legal issues hanging over him? How good can you reasonably feel about him at this stage? Listen, I’ve I’ve keeping contact with LJ all the time. Um, you know, he’s worked really hard to get back and and I feel really confident that he’s going to be back. Can you kind of take us into what that working hard looks like? What are you seeing from him? What are the details you can give? Well, he’s continued to be here to rehab. He’s been here in the summer, which he didn’t have to be. Um, but he’s continued to do that, to rehab, and to to really work. And I’ve I’ve been in constant communication with him. So, um, you know, we feel good that, you know, he’s going to be back here at some point. Is the hamstring over? I mean, is the quad over with now? Is it all knee? It’s Yes. Right now, he’s just he’s working his way back from from the knee procedure, man. So, how about that? a a small update, but about as important of an update on the injury situation as I think we could possibly have. Not something that I was expecting. You know, we talked on the show yesterday about my report that they were going to put those two guys on pup and the assumption from all of us was that Sneeed’s quad, the acute injury that he’d been dealing with the past 10 months was going to be what was keeping him off the field right now. To find out that the quad, I think our great national nightmare might actually be over on that front. It sounds like these I mean he all but said explicitly the quad is healed. It’s over. We are waiting on the knee scope that Sneeed underwent in May which side note bad PR for the not told us. I don’t know what how that slipped through the cracks. You got to tell us that in the May. You got to tell us that. I see this uh question coming in here from uh Brandon says was the cleanup in May previously disclosed? No. And again, we see this is another example of if you just tell the media what’s happening, then it’s not a fire, right? Right. If Mike Vrabel said Burks has asthma, oh, okay, cool. Got it. Like, Nashville sucks. We all know that. We live here. We see the pollen flying in the air. He has asthma. Okay, he’ll get that figured out. And it’s not a problem. But when you don’t say that, it turns into this big humongous thing that just takes a life of its own because nobody’s going to answer on that or not. So, if you just say, “Hey, well, Jerry had a clean up on his knee situation in May.” And like, “Oh, okay. Good deal. Sounds great.” Yeah. Then what’s the problem? The quads the quad’s okay, but he had a clean up in May for the knee thing. Sounds sounds good, right? Uh I mean, is is is that oversimplified? No, it’s not. I’m going to guess trying to put myself in in their heads for why they possibly wouldn’t have done this. I’m going to guess that at the time they were probably thinking there’s he’s not at practice. We don’t want to add any fuel to the fire. The quad maybe wasn’t healed at the time quite yet. and they were like, “Let’s not let’s not make it sound like he’s even more injured than he already is.” But you got to be able to have the foresight to say, man, if we have to put this guy on pup, which is a real possibility, it’s probably important for folks to know why that is. And the thing that they’re more concerned about, at least me, way more concerned about the quad is not the issue any longer. So, while the PR was not great, this update is. I think this is really fantastic news. I am so much less concerned about his ability to return to play now that I know the totally uncertain timeline of the quad is behind us and the much more predictable routine nature of a knee scope cleanup recovery timeline is what we’re dealing with. That’s something that we actually have data on. We have seen it happen. Guys have this happen all the time to them. And the knee injury, while it is something that he’s had to deal with for years, even back to when he was dominant in Kansas City, it’s something that has never actually kept him off the field when it matters most. And so I’m fine if the knee is the recurring thing for Learius Sneeed because I’m confident based on his history that we can get that to a place where he can play and be just fine. It’s the quad that I’m so glad to be passed. Yeah. you we all knew about the knee thing like when they traded for him two marches ago like you knew the knee was going to be a problem and I did see somebody else said if anybody knows how to uh handle B handle Sneed’s knee it is Boronzi which is which is true he’s been a part of the success of that Texas says what incentive do they have to tell the media PR I don’t think they care about that nor should they they should because we’re the ones that are I mean they cared it off about the Willis thing right they as an or as any organization any any business of any kind. You care about managing your the the perception of you and when you when you withhold sunlight from hot topics, you allow for speculation to run rampant say about assuming. That’s right. And that’s when you know people on the radio who are inclined to certain folks who we may or may not know who are inclined to run wild with things. If you give them the leash to run wild with things, they will run wild with them. Because the public hears that, thinks that the radio person is in the no, and maybe they are, maybe they aren’t, but who knows? Like they’re putting on an entertainment product that is radio. This is an entertainment product, right? And then the public takes it and runs with it. And then they start spreading it at all their spring and summer parties they’re going to. And now Legious is going to be out for the year, right? Like that’s how quickly that can telephone its way if that’s how you know it’s handled. So yes, they should care about that. Absolutely. Uh so let’s go ahead and get to the last bit of this and this is the surprise that happened uh yesterday in the press conference. Lorenzo Carter is retiring. I think they were, you know, ready to hit the ground running here in training camp. Going back to Lorenzo Carter, when did he tell you guys that he was going to retire and were you all surprised by that? Uh he notified me yesterday. Y was that a surprise to you? Uh yes. So, my first reaction to Eastern, I’m gonna be honest, was h okay, but then as I thought more about it, I’m like, no, not just okay. Like, they probably absolutely could use Lorenzo Carter services, but now they’re not going to have it. They were already going to need to look on the the open market or elsewhere for edge rush help. Now, they really need to do that a lot sooner. Yes. because you have a very capable veteran body who has a skill set who fits the uh the the the what they’re looking for at the position all the measurables and they obviously brought him in for a reason on a one-year deal and he uh decides to call it quits which I would rather Lorenzo Carter do it this way uh than somebody and how they did it uh last year which was like after the first week camp and they they didn’t like the way their coach was treating them maybe don’t remember that. Yeah. Right. the guy who’s currently a Cowboys player uh who came out of retirement had to get away from Bill Callahan apparently. Uh but uh soft. Yes. I would I would I think it’s like people are saying like, “Oh, this is two years in a row and Ashley’s making that joke.” Well, Tyron, it’s actually three or it’s like not two in two in a row. Three in Tyron Matthew retired, too. Like this is not a crazy time for players to retire. It’s really not. It’s not. But the Titans keep having it happen to them. I think it’s because we’re paying attention to it. I think he would. And plus, like nobody like you’re the the the Lorenzo Carter who’s edge rusher four or five with the Seattle Seahawks. If that guy retires, are you ever really going to hear about it? No, you’re not. I mean, I might, but usually not. No, usually not. Right. So, I I think this happens fairly often. Tyron Matthew retired. Usually, it’s a hey, maybe I’m thinking about something. I’m going to take the next six weeks, get away from the game. If I don’t feel like it when I come back, then I know it’s not for me. I think it’s a natural way to do something. No, I’m with you in terms of it not being that deep in terms of, you know, guys that retire. But what actually matters here to me though is is what you started with that this this is a player that was not deeply inspiring by any means, but he was going to be your edge four probably. And that’s a guy that plays and that’s a guy that you need to get a couple sacks. And that’s a guy that you’re going to have to replace. You can’t I mean go look at the the names in the depth chart beyond Lorenzo Carter. It’s a bunch of guys you never heard of. It’s Jaylen Herrell and then guys that you’re you read their names and you’re certain they’re in witness protection program because I don’t think that they’re real people and they’re not real names. So they’re going to have to go and find somebody. Um a lot of talk about oh maybe they go and get uh you know Zerius Smith, maybe a trade for Trey Hendrickson. I’ll go ahead and cool the Jets on all of that. The Titans aren’t going to spend big at I’m not even certain they’re going to add somebody but uh they should. And if they do, it’s going to be somebody from the bargain bin because that’s the way that they’ve operated this entire time. They’re going to go and find somebody that can fill that edge for role, not somebody that can suddenly maybe, oh, maybe he’s your one or your two. No, no, no, no. It’s not been the case so far. This doesn’t change anything for that. So, uh, they’ll go and they’ll add somebody and they they’ll be fine. Um, but this group is I mean, it was already really rough. It has gotten rougher somehow. And, um, while I don’t think that Lorenzo Carter being here or not being here is the end of the world. It It was already in such bad shape that this small thing has managed to bother me just enough to to wonder. It’s I don’t know. It’s like this this group is already so frail that maybe this could be the straw that breaks the camel’s back in a way if the back wasn’t already broken. It’s just because all it takes is one wrong tweak or cut on of somebody’s knee, lower body, something and now you’re like, “Ah, damn.” Like that’s that’s what I’m trying to say. Yeah. It’s like you are that much more thin uh overall. So um all right. So that’s kind of the newsy updates. They the Titans two wins in a loss is what we talked about. That’s what the title of the show is. So the loss is Lorenzo Carter. The win is legious. We’ll tell you what the other win is of uh yesterday’s press conference. And we’ll get you guys involved here momentarily as well. But first we’ll tell you guys about our great friends at the Bone & Joint Institute. Bonandjoint.org the region’s destination for comprehensive orthopedic and sports medicine care. When an injury happens in life, you have to know who you can trust, who you can turn to, and that is the Bone and Joint Institute. They’ve actually got an event coming up uh as high school football, high school sports gets going uh July 29th, which is a week from last night. They got an event uh Ben Zist, local Franklin resident, former Yeah. a former Major League Baseball stud uh for the Rays for a long time will be speaking at the event alongside some of our friends from the Bone and Joint Institute. So, go to their website, boneenjintn.org. You can also find out uh the information on their social media on Instagram is where is a great place to get it. Bone and jointtn.org whenever an injury pops up in life and we would know because we know baseball. So much more to say here. No bins over that. I know baseball from like maybe 10ish years ago. There’s a there’s a sweet spot of baseball that I’m kind of aware about. Fair enough. Well, so much more to say on the show here before we get started with suppressors and with practice. But first, make sure you like the show. Leave us a fivestar Google review as Terron Davenport tries to jump onto the stream. Say hello. Say hello. What’s up, TD? We got everybody in the house ready to go this morning. Looking forward to the first practice. Uh always looking good. He’s got the coordinated hat, shirt, shorts, and shoes. Nobody matches in life more than Terron Abort. It is a It’s a great thing. Like the show. Leave us a fivestar Google review. We appreciate you guys doing that. Now, let’s talk about that last win. Austin, we got some news that um is not like it’s nice to hear it officially. I was a little bit frustrated this morning on the morning calls. I was like, I wrote about this two weeks ago. I guess I didn’t do a good enough job of saying it on the show or putting it out there. Say louder. Here here’s for the folks that weren’t reading my articles on July 4th. Uh the guys here at the Titans facility yesterday told us that the third round pick from this last year’s draft class, Kevin Winston Jr., safety out of Penn State, is a full go, 100% healthy, going to be out here uh practicing uh at at full capacity with the team for the first time. Was not that way earlier in the summer and in the spring. He tore his ACL in week two, I believe, of last week three. Yeah, it was September. It was very, very early. And that was really, you know, we’ve talked about this a little bit here on the show, him injuring himself last year was, in my opinion, the only thing that kept him from being a first round draft pick or a fringe first like a top 40 draft pick guy. Um, he is a he’s a walking bucket when it comes to getting tackles. He had a 0.0% miss tackle rate in college, which means if he touched you, he tackled you every single time. It was also a stat that he had in college. It was a goose head, too. Do you know what it is? what penalized zero times in his entire college career. So So now he had an abbreviated college career because of injuries with only a one-year starter before the injury injured season last year. Zero penalties on on a defensive back. No, I know. So he’s a clean player. He’s a consistent player. He’s an efficient player. He’s somebody that is has the requisite length and speed that you want, the athleticism. Um he’s rangy. He seems from talking to folks that know him and are in the the classroom with him, he seems to have a really great mental grasp on the game. I the more I have dove into his tape and talking to his coaches since he was drafted, the more I find myself asking, what is there not to like about this player? And he’s somebody that I think could end up being the steel of this draft class for the Titans. He’s the guy that I certainly think fans aren’t talking about enough. And he’s the guy that if you told me one of these rookies broke into the starting rotation way faster than folks are expecting. I mean he’s got two serviceable starters in front of him at safety, which the Titans one of the only positions they actually have some form of security at is the safety position. But I wouldn’t be surprised one bit if he forces his way into that rotation and takes a starting job this season. Well, I think it’s I’m looking and I’ve said this before in the show. I’m looking for Kevin Winston Jr. to have the Ammani Hooker role as a rookie, which is right, that was back when Kevin Bard and Kenny Vicaro were the safety duo. It’s can you be that third safety that I think they’re going to use a lot of different variations of personnel. You’re going to have like Cody Barton in the center and then a random collection of 10 people around him, right? And I think that’s where Kevin Winston Jr. can be one of the five in the back end that can do a lot of different things overall. you know, covering tight ends, playing near the box if you want to rotate him back to safety to center field because Ammani Hooker can also play down low, then you’ve got some some uh some coverage uh hiding and some some things you can do there to to kind of help things out. Well, and that becomes more of a I think that becomes more of a temptation for the Titans coaching staff to really utilize those unique personnel packages because of the I wouldn’t say weakness at this point, but certainly uncertainty at linebacker the way that we talked earlier in the summer. Maybe these guys run a 515 uh a decent chunk. Maybe they lead the league this year in 515 packages where they got a fiveman front with a bunch, you know, they got Sebastian Joseph Day’s hand in the dirt alongside Simmons and and uh uh Tandre. They’ve got two edges on the field and they’ve got their three quarterbacks or two quarterbacks and three safeties. like if you’ve just got Dan um not Dan Moore uh uh uh Cody Barton out there at at linebacker holding down the middle of the defense, I think there are opportunities for them to use a pretty, to your point, a diverse skill set at safety that they have where they can rotate these guys up, down, side to side. You can line them up just about anywhere on the field. And I think that you can rely especially on Hooker and on uh uh Winston. Those are two guys that have the versatility to play all over the defense. Yeah. Uh, Shrike, our guy Elden, says 100% healthy does not mean 100% back to normal, though. We hate to raise his expectations too much fan base. I think that’s a fair comment. Uh, I agree like it’s no one’s saying he’s going to be a week one starter. No. No. And I think and he doesn’t have to be like the Titans do not need him to be a week one starter. They don’t need him. Really, honestly, they don’t need him to start at all. Just need to make plays, right? And be a role player in specific situations that can make this defense a lot better. And I’ll also say this like yeah 100% not fair but like the guy did know like four or five flat 40 like five months out of ACL surgery kind of in February or whatever. It’s also there’s a balance there right because yes you don’t want to put unfair undue expectations on the guy. You also don’t want the fact that he got injured a full year ago to um erase the fact that he was a third round pick. Like these are guys that we expect to you know top top 100 picks are expected to make an impact. And while injuries are an important asterist for certain guys, I think he is one of the in terms of guys that tooured their ACL last year, his situation is about as optimistic as I think you can possibly be for a guy who tours ACL last year because of the timing and because of how quickly he’s come back from it. And the fact importantly I’ I’ve had some people I think uh there’s a little bit of a misconception like oh the Titans love to draft injury-prone players. Kevin Winston’s entire high school, college, and now professional career, he has one major injury and it’s a torn ACL. And that’s happens to guys that’s not really an indication of guys that are injury injury prone. The best out there tear their ACL sometimes. It’s just what happens. Agree. Uh yeah. And so, um I think the the weird thing about the Titans draft is the day two picks are are year two, year three projections. The day four picks are healthy right now or or the round four picks are healthy right now. They kind of did things a little backwards. which is it made me pull my hair out when in back in the end of April, but I’m I’m okay with it now because I’ve seen what Alec Iman can do on the field. I like the way Fimiola Dejo just physically looks as far as what he can do at position. By the way, Fiola Dejio will is scheduled to be on the Buck Rising Show after practicing. Oh, is that right? Yeah. The the newest sign type. Exciting. Exciting. Doing the Buck Rising Show. Okay, let’s get let’s get you guys more involved here. Uh before we got to jump to the Brian Call press conference, let’s ask you guys the question, what are you most excited to hear and to see at camp? What are you most excited to hear and see at camp? Uh at the start of camp right now, we haven’t talked Cam Ward outside of me saying his name right there. So, what are you excited most most excited to see and hear at the start of training camp? We’ll do that here in a moment. get to your answers shortly, but want to tell you guys about Bartonjury Insurance Group, customized solutions for all of your insurance needs.

All right, so what are you most excited to see and hear about at the start of training camp? I just see a bunch of Cam Wards, Cameron, Anthony Ward, Anthony Milan. Can you confirm that? I saw it on the internet, so it must be true, right? Okay, sounds good. Like, Nick, if you’re wrong, we’re going to come fight you. So, hope you’re right, Charles. Cam Ward versus Big Jeff. What’s the first fight at training camp? I don’t know. We’ll find out. Cam Ward coming in here. Uh, wide receivers’s not named Calvin Ridley, says Titans pal. Offense, the Warden. Uh, you want to see Cam trashing big gem? Rooney says the Calvin Ridley connection. Uh, excited about what the offense is going to be about. Ward and the rookie wide receivers. I think that’s going to be a popular one, too. Uh, young rookie pass catchers. Uh, Darius says, “I’m trying to be different, but it’s just Cam.” Uh, it’s a Cam impress. Can Cam impress the mainstream? Will he draw some national attention? National attention, some story lines. I can’t wait for, you know, the insiders to show up with their Hollywood director chairs at some point in the next couple of weeks and be like, “Hey, did you guys know Cam Ward is down here bombing out in Tennessee? We did know. Thanks for joining the party. At least there’s one story line that they can’t use, which is uh the the rep’s share between Cam Ward and Will. Good lord. Yeah, no kidding. Brian with a unique answer. James Williams. Sure. Respect it. I have my eye on James Williams. There’s no doubt about that. Uh Edward just says the whole team got football back. Uh Eastston, what’s your answer here? My answer is a little bit more specific than a single person. it is. I am looking forward to seeing these young offensive weapons in pads going up against actual competition. I’m looking forward to seeing Elly Manor and Chimay DK have to and they’re not in pads quite yet, but we’re already starting today going to see these guys going up against uh DBs in one-on ones. Better DBs by the way because mind you a number of the Titans best defensive players were not playing for whatever reason, different reasons earlier in the summer. So, see how those guys compete against NFL competition and in more uh game realistic scenarios because that’s what they’re going to have to do if they’re going to make an impact in September. Yeah, my answer is going to be different as well. I kind we talked about with Kevin Wilson Jr. is but I want to focus on the front five. What’s the front five of the defense look like and how weird is it gonna be? Because I there’s a couple things that I saw in terms of deployment. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like how how just random it was gonna seem random because it’s gonna create chaos in my it could right from like the the I think it was the second mini camp practice that I was able to go to where that was the first mini camp practice Cam Ward was like hit like 21 passes in a row or whatever right after the interception. The second one was like third down day and the defense got after it and it was really fun to watch the different games, stunts, personnel alignments, where pressure was coming from, how many edge rushers were on the field, right? Like I mean the answer not just two. So even though there’s only two edges, but not just two. Uh so I think that’s kind of what I’m most curious about outside of the obvious of Cam Ward. That that is kind of the cop out answer, but I think the chat covered Cam uh well enough. That is true. It’s true. Looking forward to it. Should be an exciting day. Absolutely. So, uh I think that that should just about do it. Uh we do want to give a shout out to our friends at Wilson County Hyundai because they do make the show happen as well. We’re not going to have time for trivia because one, I don’t know how trivia would work with us having to pull it up right here and have a chat. I can tell you how it would work. It wouldn’t go well. No, it would not go well. Uh unless we got like the rest of the media core over here to help us play trivia, but that would not work out. That’d be a good idea actually. Put our put our minds together. See if we can set the record. Terrible idea. So, Terry McCormack in here. We need him for the baseball. Wilson County Hyundai.com. Make them a part of your new carbine process. We’ll go see him there. I hope you save some money on your new ride. Shout out to Wilson County Hyundai.com. And that is it for us on this Wednesday.
