Welcome back everybody and it's the halftime report and we've got the pushed Andy as a host tonight and so now I've been consulting with Santa all night long during the course at least that that first half of the shelves and not all night long.

And out incentives halftime score card.

Looking at a loser -- getting the most correct who's been getting the least correct who's been making questionable statements and of course.

According to Santa who's on the good list and who's on the bad list.
