4PM: Thankful for Packers on Thanksgiving or Badgers on Black Friday?

  • Summary

  • Jim Rutledge and Matt Hamilton are joined by Badgers volleyball play-by-play broadcaster Jon Arias, who slides into co-host in place of maternity-leave Molly. Jim, Matt and Jon begin talking about what they are (or aren't) most thankful for when it comes to the Packers playing on Thanksgiving, asking the fans which Thanksgiving TV time window is the best or worst to watch your team play during? They also discuss the lofty rankings that national media and Packers fans alike are throwing at the team's feet, and they ask fans if they think it's most likely that the Packers finish top-5 in scoring offense, scoring defense or wins? Matt also once again explains why he's actually 2.5 hours ahead of the show while in Canada as well as the delicacy that is cod tongue (apparently...). Vikings fan Jon also discusses why he couldn't stand watching the Vikings vs Bears game on Wisconsin television, and he gives his thoughts on just how important winning the Axe Game versus Minnesota would be for this Badgers football team. Jason Wilde joins Jim Rutledge, Matt Hamilton and Jon Arias two days ahead of the Packers game against the Dolphins on Thanksgiving night. Jim first asks if the Dolphins game will give the Packers defense its best litmus test after two wins against a couple of bad offenses in the Bears and injured 49ers. Also, what other teams left on the schedule are we overlooking as Packers fans? Jon wants to know if Jason feels like Packers fans should be all that impressed by the 38-10 win against San Francisco when the team didn't have Brock Purdy or Nick Bosa. Matt asks if Jason endorses his co-host Tausch's take that the Pack drove a dagger into the 49ers' playoff hears with that win. Also, how is Jason managing his family's Thanksgiving with the Packers night game, and what are his thoughts on the importance of the Badgers keeping the Axe and maintaining their 22-year bowl streak this Friday against Minnesota. They wrap up with Minute to Win It, as Jim and Primetime put Matt and Jon through the ringer with the list of the Big Ten's 17 rivalry trophy names!
