It's Packers and Bears week high on Mike Clemens with sports.
The Packers held practice getting ready for the Bears in Chicago Sunday,
even though the Packers have beat the Bears 10 times in a row.
I ask Jordan love if they're still a rivalry.
Definitely, no, we know the history of the game and it's definitely, you know,
I think it's special to be a part of it, a rivalry that's been going on,
the oldest rivalry in football.
Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberfluss fired his offensive coordinator.
In the past 48 hours, working through some things and obviously released Shane Waldron.
What I'm looking for the offense is creativity, working the guys into open positions on the field,
but that takes creativity and it takes everybody.
Pass coordinator Thomas Brown promoted to offensive play collar.
NBA, the box with a 127-120 win in overtime against the pistons.
Damien Lullard out with a concussion.
Yanis with 59 points.
It's not only that Yanis have to score, he actually had to be a point guard as well.
At stock rivers with sports on Mike Clemens.

When it comes to films opening wide this weekend, it's a bit quiet, sort of like the calm before the storm.
All eyes are at next week's openers, which will showcase Barb and Hymer 2.0 or Glickid,
which is wicked and gladiator 2.
But there is one film opening wide this week and it follows a new trend of badass Santa movies.
Red one stars Dwayne the Rock Johnson, Chris Evans, JK Simmons, and The Awesome Bonnie Hunt.
Johnson plays the head of security at the North Pole and teams up with bounty hunter Evans to find Santa Claus,
who has been kidnapped.
It's usually an inside job, the first suspect would be Mrs. Claus.
Red one is getting less than 40% on rotten tomatoes, but don't let that stop you.
It looks like pure holiday fun and at PG-13, it's fun for the whole family.
The Bruce Willis film The Fifth Element is getting a re-release this weekend, but in a limited capacity.
The film is from 1997 and also stars Ian Home, Gary Oldman, and Chris Tucker.
If you feel like staying home, new movies to stream include Megalopolis, Saturday Night, or Michael Keaton's Goodrich.
Let's go to the movies.
Actor Glenn Powell is no Ethan Hunt, according to Actor Glenn Powell.
The Top Gun and Twisters actor denied rumors that he will be the next Ethan Hunt in the Mission Impossible series.
Rumor had it that Tom Cruise was the one who wanted Powell to be his successor.
Powell told Pat McAfee of The Pat McAfee show there is no way he wants the role and would certainly never do his own stunts like Cruise does.
Cruise created the role of Hangman in Top Gun Maverick for Powell after Powell lost out on playing Goose's son to Miles Teller.
Seems like he's doing okay since then.
Powell is currently filming The Running Man, a remake of the Arnold Schwarzenegger film from the 1990s.
For those of you who are film noir buffs, I don't think I have to tell you this is noir-vember.
If you're looking for a good old black and white film to watch, check out in a lonely place with Humphrey Bogart.
Bogart plays a cocky Hollywood writer suspected of killing a young starlet.
The story has lots of twists and turns and has excellent acting.
It's got all the elements you want in a good film noir and an ending you don't see coming.
Happy noir-vember.
There's not much left for Denzel Washington to achieve when it comes to his career.
That is probably why he's mentioned retiring soon.
The actor says he will start in the third black Panther film.
After that he says he will do a fellow and then King Lear and then hang it up.
There is a lot of potential there to exit the business with a third Oscar for acting.
Washington won Best Actor for Training Day and a Best Supporting Actor Statue for Glory.
Seems like he's really getting the hang of this acting thing.
Fasten your seat belts.
There is a new sexiest man alive for 2024 and his name is John Krasinski.
He always humbled Jim from the office and star of a quiet place.
Says when he got the news, he thought he was being punked.
His wife Emily Blunt said if he won, she would wallpaper the house with magazine covers.
Sounds like they have a busy weekend.
For more show of his fun, tune in to Nightlight with me, Peach Wombo.
