Transcript
- 0:11Speaker 1: Hey, good Friday morning to you. It is a football
- 0:14Speaker 1: Friday sponsored by Tito's Handmade Vodka. Not just any old
- 0:19Speaker 1: football Friday, but a playoff football Friday, a divisional round
- 0:23Speaker 1: of the playoff football Friday. Good to have you with us.
- 0:27Speaker 1: It is Ashley Ryan, Bucky Jacobson. My name is Chuck Powell.
- 0:30Speaker 1: We roll into our eight o'clock hour and every Friday,
- 0:34Speaker 1: at eight o'clock or most every Friday, we deliver the
- 0:36Speaker 1: eight top stories of the day to get you ready
- 0:39Speaker 1: for the weekend. We do call it the Oat Show.
- 0:42Speaker 1: And let's face it, there's only one thing on our minds. Youaday,
- 0:58Speaker 1: Here we go. Yeah, get up.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Is making you want to play football right now?
- 1:10Speaker 3: Twenty percent percent concentrated power, one hundred.
- 1:19Speaker 4: Day.
- 1:20Speaker 1: He doesn't need his way on time, just wants to
- 1:23Speaker 1: be number one seed. Home field advantage, Yes, and legendary
- 1:29Speaker 1: loomen Field and it's famous home field advantage, the home
- 1:35Speaker 1: of noise, the home of hype, coming off of bye
- 1:40Speaker 1: two wins from the Super Bowl, Division rival in our path,
- 1:45Speaker 1: league's best wide receiver, league's best defense. Let's go, people,
- 1:52Speaker 1: Let's get this done.
- 1:54Speaker 5: Guess I had had double arms and chest and then
- 2:01Speaker 5: you reading that thing off, gave.
- 2:03Speaker 6: It down my right leg for some reason.
- 2:05Speaker 1: For some reason, right, you wear your Broncos shirt. Why
- 2:09Speaker 1: am I getting so excited for this?
- 2:10Speaker 5: Well, I was kind of taking it as from a
- 2:13Speaker 5: different perspective, not gonna lie because everything you said does
- 2:17Speaker 5: actually go the other way, with the exception of the
- 2:19Speaker 5: league's best wide receiver division rival everything else. Yep, I
- 2:24Speaker 5: took that as Broncos regardless that that song gets me
- 2:29Speaker 5: hyped up. It does make me want to go tackle something. Yeah,
- 2:32Speaker 5: so you might want to watch out mark, if you're
- 2:34Speaker 5: walking through.
- 2:34Speaker 4: The building, which one you know which one and it
- 2:39Speaker 4: will be an illegal hit.
- 2:40Speaker 5: That would the head and neck area.
- 2:42Speaker 1: That would be a new twist of the football Friday
- 2:44Speaker 1: right there.
- 2:46Speaker 2: That would be what if you just get to pick
- 2:49Speaker 2: someone and tackle them every football Friday.
- 2:52Speaker 6: I think it's a great idea. We're starting it.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Today, well, yes, obviously the divisional round of the playoffs
- 2:59Speaker 1: to see how being involved. After sitting out last week
- 3:03Speaker 1: and waiting for other people to have to earn their
- 3:06Speaker 1: way to play us, we now get ready for the
- 3:09Speaker 1: matchup tomorrow night at Loominfield, five o'clock kickoff on Fox.
- 3:14Speaker 1: If you can't make it to the game at Seahawks
- 3:17Speaker 1: versus forty nine Ers. And we have of course been
- 3:21Speaker 1: building this up now for a couple of weeks. But
- 3:24Speaker 1: what we didn't see coming is yesterday's news. Here we thought,
- 3:28Speaker 1: coming off of bye week, healthy football team, forty nine
- 3:31Speaker 1: ers injury report. It's riddled with famous names, guys that
- 3:35Speaker 1: aren't even going to be playing in this contest. We
- 3:37Speaker 1: know that for a fact Seahawks were supposed to be
- 3:39Speaker 1: entering this thing about as healthy as you can enter
- 3:42Speaker 1: a divisional playoff round game, and instead the bomb was
- 3:47Speaker 1: dropped yesterday from Seahawks practice that Sam Darnald has tweaked
- 3:51Speaker 1: his oblique. That's right in the middle of practice throwing
- 3:56Speaker 1: against air. It sounds like Sam Darnald might have injured
- 4:00Speaker 1: to himself in practice the other day. That's the last
- 4:04Speaker 1: thing we wanted to hear on a Thursday, forty eight
- 4:07Speaker 1: hour shy of the biggest game of the year. Greg Bell,
- 4:10Speaker 1: our Seahawks insider, was with us two hours ago, or
- 4:13Speaker 1: actually one hour ago, and he gave us an update
- 4:16Speaker 1: on Sam's oblique.
- 4:17Speaker 7: I think Mike McDonald's going to say today that it
- 4:20Speaker 7: was a precaution because he felt something. We just shut
- 4:23Speaker 7: it down so it didn't get worse. We expecting to play.
- 4:26Speaker 7: He'll test it before pregame and make sure it's okay.
- 4:29Speaker 7: He doesn't have to throw today because they literally just
- 4:32Speaker 7: walk through I mean he could just panomime throwing the
- 4:35Speaker 7: ball or not even having to do that as they
- 4:37Speaker 7: go through the game plan. So I understand it is
- 4:43Speaker 7: jarring for the starting quarterback of your division champion team
- 4:46Speaker 7: to get planned out of nowhere unquestionable. And for about
- 4:49Speaker 7: fifteen minutes I thought he might not be played. But
- 4:51Speaker 7: I think he's playing.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's playing. I don't think there's any
- 4:55Speaker 1: doubt that he is playing. That's the first part. I mean,
- 4:58Speaker 1: he's going to strap it on that time of the year.
- 5:00Speaker 1: He said, there's next to a zero percent chance that
- 5:03Speaker 1: he won't play. But then the second question that has
- 5:05Speaker 1: to be asked is, yeah, you're playing, You're gutting it out,
- 5:09Speaker 1: But is it going to affect your play because that's
- 5:12Speaker 1: a major topic as well here this morning.
- 5:17Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 5:17Speaker 5: I mean if he doesn't, if he can't do everything,
- 5:21Speaker 5: then there is a line somewhere of well how much
- 5:23Speaker 5: are you helping the team versus hurting the team right.
- 5:26Speaker 5: If you can't, let's just say he couldn't throw the
- 5:28Speaker 5: ball more than twenty yards. Oh geez, well that's but
- 5:31Speaker 5: I don't think that's the case. I don't. I think
- 5:33Speaker 5: that you can feel a little twinge, and I mean
- 5:36Speaker 5: football players deal with way more pain than baseball players do.
- 5:39Speaker 5: But baseball players, over the course of a season, you're
- 5:42Speaker 5: gonna have multiple times where something hurts. I would have
- 5:45Speaker 5: like back spasms every once in a while. It's like
- 5:47Speaker 5: most of the time I could play through it. If
- 5:49Speaker 5: you a song and missed and it really tweaked around
- 5:51Speaker 5: and knocked the wind out of it, and then you're
- 5:53Speaker 5: fine to keep going with you bat, I wouldn't be
- 5:56Speaker 5: surprised if that's all where it is. But boy, it
- 5:58Speaker 5: does bring up the idea of you're gonna be watching
- 6:01Speaker 5: him a little more closely at the end of every thrower.
- 6:03Speaker 5: If he gets hit and guys are landing on him.
- 6:05Speaker 5: Does it tweak something or make something like that worse?
- 6:07Speaker 5: But I think no doubt he's playing like you said,
- 6:10Speaker 5: and I don't think it's gonna limit how he's gonna play.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Yeah, but it does introduce concern that we hoped we
- 6:16Speaker 1: didn't have to discuss. And it's not nothing, I'll tell
- 6:21Speaker 1: you that. I mean, I've been on the internet and
- 6:25Speaker 1: on social media for overnight and into this morning and
- 6:29Speaker 1: a lot of doctors way in and pretty much they
- 6:32Speaker 1: say nothing really to be concerned about. But it's not
- 6:34Speaker 1: like there's no concern here for Sam and this oblique
- 6:39Speaker 1: injury for it to happen at this point in the week,
- 6:42Speaker 1: And it does beg the question, how does a quarterback
- 6:44Speaker 1: even suffer an oblique injury during a bye week. We
- 6:47Speaker 1: were supposed to get the bye week so that we
- 6:49Speaker 1: didn't lose anybody else, that we would be even healthier
- 6:54Speaker 1: than we were the last time we faced the San
- 6:56Speaker 1: Francisco forty nine ers, and yet he and Charles Cross
- 7:00Speaker 1: and Ernest Jones ended up on that injury report this week,
- 7:04Speaker 1: and those guys weren't supposed to be on.
- 7:06Speaker 6: The injury report this week.
- 7:08Speaker 5: Yeah, usually you have a buy and you just get
- 7:10Speaker 5: more healthy. Oh what our starting quarterback has and a
- 7:15Speaker 5: left tech what that doesn't usually happen. And I don't
- 7:18Speaker 5: think it's a malpractice. I think they're out there practicing
- 7:21Speaker 5: too hard. It just is what it is. I mean,
- 7:22Speaker 5: you end up having some things that just happen. I mean,
- 7:25Speaker 5: you're right. I mean there's been people have gotten hurt
- 7:27Speaker 5: getting out of the bathtub, So I mean, I don't
- 7:30Speaker 5: think either one of these are going to limit those
- 7:32Speaker 5: people or affect the who's going to be in the
- 7:35Speaker 5: starting lineup tomorrow, but it definitely brings that into consideration.
- 7:40Speaker 5: Especially when you were going into this, one of the
- 7:42Speaker 5: big things was not only are you playing well, not
- 7:44Speaker 5: only are you playing as well as anybody in the
- 7:47Speaker 5: National Football League, but you're as healthy as everybody else
- 7:50Speaker 5: is too, And all of a sudden during the bye week,
- 7:52Speaker 5: you're coming out of the bye week, you always had
- 7:53Speaker 5: to have a couple of guys dinged up.
- 7:55Speaker 1: You do bring up a great point, though, Can we
- 7:57Speaker 1: put some handrails in Sam Darnold's back.
- 8:00Speaker 2: It's a really dangerous one has reads just in case.
- 8:05Speaker 1: Just ca Yeah, maybe maybe one of those mats that
- 8:09Speaker 1: is extra like grippy.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Or just keep it like a big bubble to yeah tomorrow.
- 8:14Speaker 1: I mean, we're doing everything we can to protect Sam
- 8:17Speaker 1: from further.
- 8:18Speaker 5: I think he.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Left Eckle. Charles Cross is injured too. He did something
- 8:23Speaker 1: new to his injured knee that he just rehabbed, but
- 8:27Speaker 1: he was a full participant in practice yesterday. He has
- 8:30Speaker 1: been declared good to go. Kobe Bryant is going to
- 8:33Speaker 1: be back. We haven't seen him play in a while.
- 8:35Speaker 6: He's really good.
- 8:36Speaker 1: Ernest Jones had some sort of illness this week, but
- 8:39Speaker 1: he's been declared good to go. Same with Rieke Woolan
- 8:42Speaker 1: who ended up on the injury report. All those guys
- 8:45Speaker 1: have been cleared to play. A couple of guys that weren't,
- 8:47Speaker 1: they're going to be out. Elijah Arroyo also a special
- 8:51Speaker 1: team's menace, Chas Surat both going to be out for
- 8:54Speaker 1: this game now our injury report compared to San Francisco's
- 8:58Speaker 1: injury report night and day. Warner's not gonna make it
- 9:01Speaker 1: back in time, despite his fantastic visions of playing in
- 9:06Speaker 1: this game from earlier in the week. JayR. Brown one
- 9:09Speaker 1: of their corners and they are very limited at corner.
- 9:12Speaker 1: He's out. We know George Kittle is out. Linebacker de
- 9:16Speaker 1: Winters and wide receiver Ricky pearsall are both questionable. Left
- 9:20Speaker 1: tackle superstar left tackle Trent Williams. He has a full
- 9:24Speaker 1: participation at practice yesterday, so he is good to go
- 9:28Speaker 1: as well. Kickoff at five o'clock from Loomenfield. Hawk's a
- 9:32Speaker 1: seven point favorite. Now, it was seven and a half
- 9:34Speaker 1: yesterday at this time. So the Sam Darnold injury did
- 9:38Speaker 1: probably affect that money line, that the odds a little bit,
- 9:44Speaker 1: but certainly not that much, not that significant. The expectation
- 9:48Speaker 1: is Sam's gonna play and not be hindered. And I
- 9:52Speaker 1: think as long as that's the case, Seahawks are advancing
- 9:55Speaker 1: to the NFC Conference Championship game.
- 9:57Speaker 5: I mean, everything points in that direction. And and yet
- 10:00Speaker 5: if they just go take care of their business, go
- 10:02Speaker 5: do what they're capable of doing, they should be able
- 10:04Speaker 5: to advance. I think I think the seven points is
- 10:07Speaker 5: a lot, just it would be a lot in a
- 10:09Speaker 5: division game. Even I think the seven points is big.
- 10:12Speaker 5: But then again, it's because of how dominant you looked
- 10:14Speaker 5: in Week eighteen against them.
- 10:16Speaker 2: I just got very it's broke into a cold sweater.
- 10:20Speaker 6: Yeah, it might be the poofball hat.
- 10:21Speaker 2: It might be, well, that would be a hot sweat.
- 10:23Speaker 2: My hands are freezing out. I'm freezing.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Oh the energy, don't worry, you got all your superstititions.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Oh no, I'm it's just excitement. Now we got what
- 10:32Speaker 2: more than twenty four hours. It can take forever.
- 10:34Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, it's gonna feel like it takes forever.
- 10:37Speaker 1: The NFL Divisional Round will actually start tomorrow in Denver, Colorado,
- 10:42Speaker 1: where the Buffalo Bills will be taking on the Broncos,
- 10:45Speaker 1: kickoff at one thirty. And I don't know how much
- 10:47Speaker 1: credence to give this, but I have heard through the
- 10:50Speaker 1: grapevine that Bronco fans are really really worried.
- 10:55Speaker 5: Ooh man, that just gives me the weavy GEVs.
- 10:58Speaker 1: Yeah, that's uh.
- 11:00Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know if that was taken out of
- 11:02Speaker 5: context or not.
- 11:03Speaker 1: No, I think that's what you're talking about.
- 11:04Speaker 5: I don't think that's at all what I was talking about.
- 11:06Speaker 1: I don't know that's that that's the sentiment of Bronco. Sure, yeah,
- 11:12Speaker 1: that's why I sound like, by the way, I can't believe.
- 11:15Speaker 5: That just gives me. Oh man, I don't have the
- 11:20Speaker 5: web GB's. I mean it's I don't have ultra confidence.
- 11:24Speaker 5: But then again, I never will be that guy that's
- 11:26Speaker 5: ultra confidence.
- 11:27Speaker 6: Allen doesn't give me the web gbs. I'm not even
- 11:30Speaker 6: rootten for the Broncos.
- 11:31Speaker 5: I actually cheer four Josh Allen, not tomorrow yeah, but
- 11:35Speaker 5: no damn good. But then again, there's there's a reason
- 11:38Speaker 5: that they aren't the number one seed.
- 11:41Speaker 6: Josh Allen's like the Cal Rawley of the NFL.
- 11:43Speaker 2: Everyone just likes.
- 11:44Speaker 5: It is a lot like yeah, tomorrow, real hard. Maybe
- 11:49Speaker 5: next year.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Uh. Houston at New England on Sunday. That kickoff is
- 11:54Speaker 1: at noon. The Patriots are three point favorites there, the
- 11:57Speaker 1: Rams at Chicago. They're expecting frigid temper there. The Bears
- 12:01Speaker 1: are getting three and a half points of the Rams
- 12:04Speaker 1: on the road playing there in Chicago with Chicago weather,
- 12:08Speaker 1: and the experts still think they're gonna win by more
- 12:11Speaker 1: than a field goal. That kickoff will be Sunday at
- 12:14Speaker 1: three thirty. So here it is my favorite weekend of
- 12:18Speaker 1: the entire sports year, the Saturday and Sunday that is
- 12:22Speaker 1: the divisional round of the NFL Playoffs. Theoretically, the eight
- 12:25Speaker 1: best teams in the NFL, eight best football teams in
- 12:29Speaker 1: the world, playing doubleheaders on Saturday and Sunday. Not too
- 12:33Speaker 1: much football, not too little football.
- 12:37Speaker 6: Just right, just right.
- 12:40Speaker 1: I agree. College football, the National Championship is going to
- 12:44Speaker 1: be Monday night, So we are just three days away
- 12:48Speaker 1: from Miami versus Indiana in Miami. By the way, Yeah,
- 12:52Speaker 1: the Hurricanes. They're getting a home game for the national championship,
- 12:57Speaker 1: but they are facing the number one ranked team in
- 12:59Speaker 1: the country that is just destroying everything in its path.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Leading up to this game, we asked our college football insider,
- 13:07Speaker 1: the great Rick new Aisl on Tuesday, if anyone can
- 13:11Speaker 1: come within ten points of the Hoosiers.
- 13:13Speaker 8: It is really astounding to fathom what we're watching. Do
- 13:17Speaker 8: you realize since the turn of the century, everybody remembers
- 13:21Speaker 8: why two k Indiana has had twenty one losing seasons
- 13:27Speaker 8: in this century, twenty one out of twenty out of
- 13:32Speaker 8: twenty five losing seasons, and yet here they are the
- 13:37Speaker 8: undisputed number one team in the land, and not even close.
- 13:41Speaker 9: They're laying waste to their opponents. And I mean the
- 13:45Speaker 9: quarterback in two college football playoff games, you know, the
- 13:50Speaker 9: best in terms of a competition is thirty one of
- 13:55Speaker 9: thirty six and eight touchdowns. A few one of thirty
- 14:00Speaker 9: six with eight touchdowns. They are twenty to twenty eight
- 14:04Speaker 9: on third down conversions. They are in four hundred yards
- 14:08Speaker 9: rushing in the two games. I mean, they're just mauling people.
- 14:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean It's as good a college football team
- 14:14Speaker 1: as I've ever seen. And for them to have just
- 14:19Speaker 1: keep getting better, not just from year to year, in
- 14:21Speaker 1: two years, game to game, keep getting better. I think
- 14:26Speaker 1: Miami's got a terrific football team. I am not surprised
- 14:29Speaker 1: that they're in the National Championship game at all, but
- 14:32Speaker 1: I think they're going to get steamrolled by the Hoosiers too.
- 14:35Speaker 5: And we can only hope, Oh, you can only hope.
- 14:38Speaker 2: Let's go fighting gas Man.
- 14:40Speaker 5: I mean yeah, I mean, normally I would not be
- 14:43Speaker 5: cheering for the team that just destroyed the team that
- 14:46Speaker 5: I root for, but I am all Hoosiers on this one,
- 14:49Speaker 5: and it does feel like if they go out there,
- 14:52Speaker 5: they feel a lot like the Seahawks as far as
- 14:55Speaker 5: just this game, where it feels like you go out
- 14:57Speaker 5: and do what you do and it should work. And again,
- 15:00Speaker 5: I mean, there's just really been nobody. Miami might have
- 15:04Speaker 5: enough disruptive guys up front that they can make it
- 15:07Speaker 5: to where Fernando Munoza finally does make some mistakes, because
- 15:10Speaker 5: right now he does not make mistakes.
- 15:12Speaker 2: I just don't know if Miami has enough discipline. Again,
- 15:15Speaker 2: you've got a team that that plays perfectly I mean,
- 15:18Speaker 2: they are so clean, and then you've got Miami who
- 15:21Speaker 2: gets lots of penalties and almost shot themselves in the
- 15:24Speaker 2: foot at the end of the last game.
- 15:26Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they can match them talent for talent.
- 15:28Speaker 1: With the execution of the Indiana Hoosiers, twenty twenty five
- 15:32Speaker 1: football team might be the best in the history of
- 15:35Speaker 1: college impeccable. Yeah, they're just incredible. Kickoff is at five
- 15:39Speaker 1: point thirty on Monday night college basketball. You dub is
- 15:43Speaker 1: hosting a Sparti party tomorrow over there at headech as
- 15:48Speaker 1: the Michigan State Spartans and they're fantastic program and legendary
- 15:52Speaker 1: head coach are rolling in town spots for glory.
- 15:59Speaker 6: All right, we're not even ranked.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Yeah that seems aggressive.
- 16:03Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, I don't know if that's necessary glory.
- 16:08Speaker 1: That's the thing about Spartans may way over hyped the situation.
- 16:12Speaker 1: Michigan State still has one of the top programs in
- 16:15Speaker 1: America this year fifteen and two, ranked twelve in the country,
- 16:18Speaker 1: but they're not as good as that team that played
- 16:20Speaker 1: here Wednesday, also from the state of Michigan. U dubb
- 16:23Speaker 1: is coming off that loss to number four Wolverines. They
- 16:26Speaker 1: sit at ten and seven. On the season, they're two
- 16:28Speaker 1: and four and Big Ten play tip off. In some
- 16:32Speaker 1: areas they're still saying TVD but it is going to
- 16:36Speaker 1: be at three o'clock. So you could pull off the
- 16:38Speaker 1: Spencer Hawes doubleheader and try to go to both games,
- 16:41Speaker 1: which he and his wife are going to try to
- 16:43Speaker 1: pull off. It sounds like or you know, you can
- 16:46Speaker 1: pick and choose what you're going to watch. But that's
- 16:48Speaker 1: a pretty good double dip, certainly for television viewing on
- 16:51Speaker 1: Saturday here in Seattle.
- 16:53Speaker 5: Yeah, not the easiest probably to get from one to
- 16:55Speaker 5: the other. Maybe I'd just get right on, grab the
- 16:58Speaker 5: coattails of Spencer Hawes and just follow wherever he goes.
- 17:01Speaker 5: But didn't clear the path he can see above, won't
- 17:04Speaker 5: creep him out of the path of least resistance would
- 17:06Speaker 5: be just a Congo line from the U dub game.
- 17:09Speaker 5: Just ere we just grab on to him. He just
- 17:11Speaker 5: just a you know, a trail of people coming down
- 17:14Speaker 5: to Lumen.
- 17:15Speaker 1: And even mind it is a birthday gift for his wife,
- 17:17Speaker 1: so bring something for missus.
- 17:18Speaker 5: Has the walk?
- 17:21Speaker 6: I don't care at this point.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Spoiler yeah, cheers joy Uh the cracking last night, well,
- 17:30Speaker 3: I mean they're back to not being able to pull
- 17:33Speaker 3: off these winds.
- 17:35Speaker 1: Uh and on this road trip that's back to back losses.
- 17:38Speaker 10: Cherr McCann near side, try to rip it back across
- 17:41Speaker 10: four Beneers ending up to the new stule cell dow
- 17:45Speaker 10: Ears picked off by cast electa back Yeah, God, and
- 17:49Speaker 10: they score Mark cast Elects stripping man Eineers in tight
- 17:57Speaker 10: on Joey the cord. It's a two goal lead, three one.
- 18:03Speaker 1: Cracking did Mega three to two. That's ever it fits
- 18:06Speaker 1: you on the call right here on the flagship sports
- 18:08Speaker 1: radio ninety three point three kJ RFM, as Eddie Olchik
- 18:10Speaker 1: said last night, And I love Eddie Oldchick's analysis. Love
- 18:13Speaker 1: Alice too. We got some good people calling hockey games
- 18:16Speaker 1: in this year town. He said, Man, you can't compound
- 18:20Speaker 1: the mistake that but Deer's made by not making that. Say,
- 18:22Speaker 1: that was a very savable shot on goal and it
- 18:26Speaker 1: just got through. The Bruins end up winning by a
- 18:29Speaker 1: final score of four to two in the contest. Cracking
- 18:32Speaker 1: Him now lost four of their last five games, and
- 18:36Speaker 1: they can't let this turn into a skid. They'll be
- 18:38Speaker 1: at Utah taking on the Mammoth tomorrow at two o'clock.
- 18:43Speaker 1: It's gonna get wooly.
- 18:45Speaker 2: That should be their slogan.
- 18:47Speaker 1: I want it to be finally hot stove news, which
- 18:51Speaker 1: will tell you about in a moment. But our hot
- 18:53Speaker 1: stove news up in here was that Kyle Rawley joined
- 18:56Speaker 1: the radio program yesterday, and even though he's an off
- 19:00Speaker 1: a runner up MVP season to whistle Teeth, he still
- 19:05Speaker 1: went into this offseason with one mindset to work on.
- 19:11Speaker 11: Yeah, I think just consistency, you know, really trying to
- 19:14Speaker 11: hammer that home. I thought I took a big step
- 19:16Speaker 11: forward last year with with Dad at the play, so
- 19:20Speaker 11: really just trying to double down on that. Really, just
- 19:22Speaker 11: trying to stay consistent with my work, trying to trust
- 19:24Speaker 11: the process. I think that's that's always a big thing,
- 19:27Speaker 11: you know, trying to limit strac to als, trying to
- 19:30Speaker 11: put a few more balls to play here and there,
- 19:32Speaker 11: and and obviously lots of work on, you know, from
- 19:36Speaker 11: the defensive front as well. You know, I gotta uh,
- 19:39Speaker 11: you know, trying to work on my arm a little bit, uh,
- 19:41Speaker 11: work on some framing, new abs coming, so it's gonna
- 19:45Speaker 11: be answering with that, and uh, you know, just working
- 19:48Speaker 11: all around game. You know, constantly trying to think of
- 19:50Speaker 11: ways to get the team better. You know, whether that's
- 19:53Speaker 11: something I could do, and and and uh, you know
- 19:56Speaker 11: on the you know, pitching side of things, you know,
- 19:58Speaker 11: working on you know, game calling, prepping for games. What
- 20:01Speaker 11: can what can we do to help these guys you know,
- 20:03Speaker 11: be even better than the already are. Is there another
- 20:06Speaker 11: way you can go about it? So you know, those
- 20:08Speaker 11: are all all things that you know, I think about,
- 20:10Speaker 11: and you know, I know a lot of people here
- 20:13Speaker 11: in the organization I think about as well.
- 20:15Speaker 1: I know when I watched Kyle Rawley play last year,
- 20:18Speaker 1: I was sitting there putting the list together. Man, this
- 20:20Speaker 1: guy could really get the better at all these things.
- 20:22Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, same here man. Pretty much daily. I was like,
- 20:26Speaker 5: this guy, if he wants to stick around, man, get
- 20:31Speaker 5: better at calling games. I mean, this picture staff is
- 20:33Speaker 5: not going to like throwing to you. And I don't know, Man,
- 20:37Speaker 5: put the ball in play a little more, maybe you'd
- 20:39Speaker 5: have more than sixty homers.
- 20:41Speaker 1: You know, well we set the over under it one hundred.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Brad Adam reached out to him last night. He took
- 20:46Speaker 1: the over.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Yeah, so I said that was being yeah a little
- 20:51Speaker 2: I thought I thought you should have done higher.
- 20:52Speaker 5: I'm going to take the under one thirteen. Yeah, I
- 20:56Speaker 5: think he's a bit of an arrogant guy. I'm gonna
- 20:59Speaker 5: go ahead and take the under. I don't think he
- 21:01Speaker 5: probably gets any more than eighty.
- 21:05Speaker 1: If you want to hear the entire twenty minute conversation,
- 21:08Speaker 1: and we spent a lot of time of it talking football.
- 21:10Speaker 1: He wanted to talk football with us with the Seahawks
- 21:12Speaker 1: play tomorrow night. He's a newly christened Seahawks fan, so

- 21:57Speaker 1: not with Sam Darnold, but with his idea dentical twins
- 22:01Speaker 1: Stan Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. Several different angles,
- 22:05Speaker 1: some of them we didn't even want to discuss. All
- 22:08Speaker 1: week long, we've also been checking in with local celebrities
- 22:11Speaker 1: who are die hard Seahawk fans to see how they're
- 22:13Speaker 1: getting ready for Saturday night. Our next guest is new
- 22:18Speaker 1: to the celebrity game, and yet I don't think he
- 22:22Speaker 1: changes anything. I mean, if he dyes his hair black,
- 22:24Speaker 1: he ruins the entire thing, you know, in time for Saturday.
- 22:27Speaker 5: He wouldn't do that.
- 22:28Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think you'd do that, not for a
- 22:30Speaker 1: million bucks at this point, joining us now, and I
- 22:33Speaker 1: hear told he has a real name, but you out
- 22:36Speaker 1: there know him as Stan Darnold, and he's with us
- 22:39Speaker 1: right here on Chuck and Buck in the morning. Stan,
- 22:42Speaker 1: how are you.
- 22:43Speaker 12: Hey, I'm doing great. How you guys doing?
- 22:46Speaker 1: How you dealing with your newfound celebrity these days?
- 22:50Speaker 12: Oh man, it's been crazy. I really didn't expect it
- 22:53Speaker 12: to kind of keep going up like this. But it's
- 22:55Speaker 12: been awesome. I don't get this talk too many YAK
- 22:57Speaker 12: stands out in the Carolina, so.
- 22:58Speaker 6: It's a lot of fun.
- 23:00Speaker 1: So if people don't know this guy, Stan was caught
- 23:04Speaker 1: on camera in the stands and he has a Sam
- 23:08Speaker 1: Donald jersey on and pretty much looks like Sam Donald.
- 23:11Speaker 1: And from that point forward, right off the bat, I
- 23:15Speaker 1: think it was Iron Eagle called him Stan Darnald right
- 23:17Speaker 1: off the bat. The name's stuck. And since that time
- 23:20Speaker 1: he's basically done like this media tour. He's been featured
- 23:23Speaker 1: at the local newspaper. I think he even has a
- 23:27Speaker 1: date with you know, Jessica Simpson this week from what
- 23:32Speaker 1: I understand. So it's just been crazy for Stan Darnald
- 23:36Speaker 1: here as of late. So when Sam came to the Seahawks,
- 23:41Speaker 1: I mean, was your thought like he kind of looks
- 23:44Speaker 1: like me, I'm gonna go ahead and embrace this, or
- 23:46Speaker 1: was there any element of you that said, I think
- 23:49Speaker 1: I could look like Sam Donald if I tried a
- 23:52Speaker 1: little harder. How did that work?
- 23:54Speaker 6: No, I was.
- 23:55Speaker 12: I was super fired up. I've definitely thought, you know,
- 23:58Speaker 12: I was. Since he grew the beard out, I was
- 23:59Speaker 12: like Oh wow, that really looks kind of like me. Right,
- 24:02Speaker 12: that's really funny. So yeah, when he was in Carolina,
- 24:05Speaker 12: I got a little I got a little Sam Donald jersey.
- 24:08Speaker 6: Then oh okay, yeah.
- 24:09Speaker 12: A minuit he signed here. I was first in line
- 24:12Speaker 12: for that jersey on the Seahak website.
- 24:14Speaker 5: Oh great, Wow, that's impressible. So I gotta ask, man,
- 24:17Speaker 5: I mean, do you because I get this all the time.
- 24:19Speaker 5: I'm a redhead. Well I'm bald now, but I got
- 24:22Speaker 5: a red beard, and I get text I would say
- 24:24Speaker 5: at least once a week from friends. They just see
- 24:27Speaker 5: anyone with a red beard and they're like, oh, there's
- 24:29Speaker 5: a twin. Do you get that a lot? Because this
- 24:32Speaker 5: one is actually real? You do look a lot like Sam.
- 24:35Speaker 5: But do you get that just because you're a redhead
- 24:37Speaker 5: and people think we all look alike, you're.
- 24:40Speaker 12: A thousand percent spot on? Actually it's it's been Andy Donald.
- 24:44Speaker 12: It's been you know, pretty much every redhead you can
- 24:48Speaker 12: think of most of my life. But I kind of
- 24:50Speaker 12: lean in it.
- 24:50Speaker 6: I find it's fun.
- 24:51Speaker 12: I actually have a even an Andy Dalton jersey that's
- 24:54Speaker 12: signed as well.
- 24:55Speaker 1: So do you ever? I mean, I don't know how
- 24:57Speaker 1: tall a man you are. Do you ever actually get
- 24:59Speaker 1: mistaken for him? Or is it more of just what
- 25:02Speaker 1: happened with the game the other day?
- 25:06Speaker 12: You know, I'll get people that say, oh, wow, you
- 25:07Speaker 12: you know, you really look like him. I'm about five tens,
- 25:10Speaker 12: a little shorter, a little, a little bit less athletic.
- 25:12Speaker 12: But yeah, no, that's definitely no one. No one has
- 25:16Speaker 12: actually confused me so far.
- 25:17Speaker 1: I don't think you haven't channeled him so deeply that
- 25:20Speaker 1: you woke up with an oblique strain this morning, did you?
- 25:24Speaker 12: Oh no, but I'm getting ready to donate mine if
- 25:26Speaker 12: if needed, donate.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Your O bleak.
- 25:29Speaker 5: Yeah great, I think there might be somebody from you.
- 25:35Speaker 5: Be careful what you say, because there's somebody from the Seahawks.
- 25:39Speaker 5: Listen right now, they're gonna be all right. We're sending
- 25:42Speaker 5: a surgeon right over the jet and NEU Oblique out
- 25:45Speaker 5: here to put into Sam.
- 25:46Speaker 1: Put it on ice. I know that if you're ever
- 25:48Speaker 1: going to do that, you got to put it on ice.
- 25:50Speaker 6: There're the whole helicopter ride. Yeah.
- 25:54Speaker 1: Uh, Stan Arnold is with us here today, he too,
- 25:58Speaker 1: getting ready for tomorrow night. So I know you've had
- 26:02Speaker 1: I don't I don't think personal interaction with Sam about this,
- 26:04Speaker 1: but I know he saw the video and he gave
- 26:07Speaker 1: you a gift. Talk about what how Sam himself has
- 26:10Speaker 1: reacted to your newfound fame here.
- 26:15Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean Sam's Sam's is a super cool, really
- 26:17Speaker 12: little guy. I think you see in the press conference
- 26:20Speaker 12: with him and everything, and yeah, he's really I think
- 26:23Speaker 12: leaned into it. He's been really funny, just you know,
- 26:24Speaker 12: finding a jersey for me, shipping that out. I think
- 26:28Speaker 12: someone asked about in the press conference. He said he
- 26:29Speaker 12: thought it was pretty ethics. So okay, yeah, I'll be
- 26:32Speaker 12: I'll be flying out for the game tomorrow, so maybe
- 26:34Speaker 12: maybe something there too.
- 26:35Speaker 6: You never know.
- 26:36Speaker 5: All right, well they're hooking you up, you getting get
- 26:38Speaker 5: into some seats because he got to be somewhere where
- 26:41Speaker 5: you're getting on camera again, I would imagine.
- 26:44Speaker 12: I'll be I'm flying out of my diamond. It was
- 26:46Speaker 12: this is something I couldn't miss. I mean, his first
- 26:48Speaker 12: first Playoff game in like nine years at home, so
- 26:51Speaker 12: definitely have to be there. But yeah, I'll be in
- 26:53Speaker 12: section one thirty one. So if they want to stop
- 26:56Speaker 12: me though, see I'll be available.
- 26:58Speaker 4: You're from here originally, right, Yeah, that's correct. Yeah, So
- 27:03Speaker 4: you've always been a Seahawks fan. Oh yeah, oh yeah, okay,
- 27:08Speaker 4: boy by that then married perfectly for you right there?
- 27:12Speaker 5: They said they Donald or Sam Donald, whichever one. When
- 27:17Speaker 5: when they signed him, I said, well, this team might
- 27:19Speaker 5: really have enough now that they got a ginger as
- 27:22Speaker 5: a general. It's working out like that.
- 27:28Speaker 1: How have friends and family reacted to all of this?
- 27:33Speaker 12: Oh, it's been really fun.
- 27:34Speaker 6: It's been fun.
- 27:34Speaker 12: I got a lot of people we reaching out because
- 27:37Speaker 12: I'm living in the Carolina these days, people in Carolina
- 27:39Speaker 12: reaching out and people in Seattle reaching out to back out.
- 27:42Speaker 12: So yeah, I've been getting shared a lot of stuff
- 27:45Speaker 12: and all news clips all that. Yeah, it's really fun.
- 27:49Speaker 1: Now I gotta mega confession. My father, he was a
- 27:52Speaker 1: heavy equipment operator for most of his adult life. That's
- 27:57Speaker 1: how he fed his family is he moved coal at
- 28:02Speaker 1: the power plant back there in Illinois. And then when
- 28:05Speaker 1: he divorced from my mother, he had a little bit
- 28:07Speaker 1: of a midlife crisis and he wanted to do something
- 28:10Speaker 1: a little different, and he did end up being a
- 28:15Speaker 1: Willie Nelson impersonator. He made his living impersonating Willie Nelson.
- 28:21Speaker 1: That is a true story. So are you gonna are
- 28:24Speaker 1: you gonna take it. Are you gonna try to feed
- 28:25Speaker 1: your family with us? You're gonna go on tour as
- 28:28Speaker 1: Sam Darnald? What is your plan? Are you gonna take
- 28:30Speaker 1: it to the next step? Try to grow five inches
- 28:32Speaker 1: by next season? What Stan Donald's plan to be even
- 28:36Speaker 1: more like Sam Donald going forward?
- 28:39Speaker 8: Oh?
- 28:39Speaker 12: Man, I mean I'll take any of the opportunities put
- 28:41Speaker 12: in front of me by that. Definitely not, definitely not
- 28:44Speaker 12: gonna explore those experimental lengthening surgeries make myself a little taller.
- 28:48Speaker 12: I think I'm plenty content with seeing the lookalike, not
- 28:52Speaker 12: the identical swint.
- 28:53Speaker 5: Could just get some cleats, like with some lifts in
- 28:56Speaker 5: them or whatever. Yeah, don't do the surgeries. Then can
- 28:58Speaker 5: you throw a football? Great question?
- 29:01Speaker 12: You know I was the receiver on my on my
- 29:03Speaker 12: innermural team, not not give me a rep.
- 29:05Speaker 6: The quarterback, So yeah, it's probably for the best pice.
- 29:08Speaker 5: The coach screwed you over, That's what more people think.
- 29:10Speaker 5: Probably both just didn't recognize your talent. I'm thinking.
- 29:13Speaker 1: So in other words, you look like Sam, but your
- 29:15Speaker 1: games like Jsn's.
- 29:17Speaker 12: Oh yeah, that's a very gentalous way of putting it.
- 29:21Speaker 1: But yeah, very generous all right, well, give us a
- 29:23Speaker 1: prediction for tomorrow night. What do you think you're going
- 29:26Speaker 1: to be watching?
- 29:28Speaker 12: Yeah, I think I think for and I as a
- 29:30Speaker 12: well coached team, they've stuck, they've hung in there for
- 29:32Speaker 12: injuries all year. I think the Seahawks talent, the French
- 29:36Speaker 12: is probably gonna take it over. So I'd say twenty
- 29:39Speaker 12: four to thirteen Seahawks win, I think.
- 29:43Speaker 1: But yeah, no, that's it's not that.
- 29:45Speaker 6: It's not at all.
- 29:46Speaker 1: I like where your head's at. That's about where I
- 29:48Speaker 1: am as well. So well, enjoy it all. Enjoy the game.
- 29:52Speaker 1: It's been a fun story. We're glad that we could
- 29:54Speaker 1: put you on for a few minutes. Uh uh and
- 29:57Speaker 1: uh we we do appreciate your time. So go Hawks
- 30:01Speaker 1: and we'll see it tomorrow night.
- 30:02Speaker 12: I'm sure absolutely thanks for having me on. Guys, Go Hawks.
- 30:06Speaker 1: There he is Stan Darnold. He does have a real name.
- 30:09Speaker 1: I'm not gonna give it. He's stand to me. Really, Yeah,
- 30:12Speaker 1: do you want to give it?
- 30:13Speaker 6: Tell me to give it?
- 30:14Speaker 1: Yeah, Ben Conklin, Ben conk do Yeah, conk I have
- 30:19Speaker 1: a buddy.
- 30:22Speaker 5: That's Tim Conklin. But you can't when you're Stan Darnold.
- 30:29Speaker 6: Yeah, you gotta be standing Donald.
- 30:30Speaker 5: He's embracing it, I think right now, so we'll let
- 30:33Speaker 5: I don't think he minds not having his real name
- 30:35Speaker 5: put out there.
- 30:35Speaker 1: You think he's having fun with it. They probably will
- 30:37Speaker 1: come a time or like, don't call me Stan Darning
- 30:40Speaker 1: get angry, m you know, but right now, have fun
- 30:45Speaker 1: with it, enjoy and he's coming to the game. Yeah,
- 30:48Speaker 1: that's that's phenomenal. Got his Sam Donald signed jersey and
- 30:53Speaker 1: his oblique was just fine this morning. He's got the
- 30:55Speaker 1: right attitude. If you need me to donate my oblique.
- 30:59Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, team player Stan Is. Everybody's known that about him.
- 31:03Speaker 5: Oh yeah, we'll go get her. He'll do whatever the
- 31:06Speaker 5: team needs.

- 33:09Speaker 1: we would have skipped it this day. But this story's
- 33:12Speaker 1: really fascinating. The New York Giants have not come to
- 33:15Speaker 1: an official agreement with John Harbaugh when our show started yesterday.
- 33:21Speaker 1: That's what was reported by Adam Schefter. Now, Adam Schefter
- 33:25Speaker 1: never swings and misses very rarely, but I do think
- 33:30Speaker 1: that he gets a little hyper sometimes. I think he
- 33:35Speaker 1: you know, he's got more competition. He's got Rappaport and
- 33:40Speaker 1: Garafolo and Pelasaro and all these people trying to break stories,
- 33:44Speaker 1: and he can't stand it when somebody else breaks stories.
- 33:47Speaker 1: I think he em you know, prematurely reportiated yesterday that
- 33:54Speaker 1: he basically was saying they were at the finish line.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Does not sound like they are at the finish line
- 33:59Speaker 1: still not signed. So it's making Giants fans very nervous.
- 34:03Speaker 1: I would imagine it's making Adam Schefter pretty nervous that
- 34:06Speaker 1: he might have jumped the gun on this. He did
- 34:09Speaker 1: cancel interviews with Tennessee and Atlanta, but Bucky, that might
- 34:13Speaker 1: be just a way of saying, I'm really I mean,
- 34:16Speaker 1: this is so good, I'm going to either take this
- 34:20Speaker 1: Giant's job. And there's no reason to interview with those
- 34:23Speaker 1: other teams because there's no way that they can present
- 34:27Speaker 1: more than what the Giants have. But there might be
- 34:29Speaker 1: a couple of teams that could present more out there.
- 34:32Speaker 1: And it sounds like right now that the door is
- 34:35Speaker 1: still open that John Harball might not be the Giants
- 34:39Speaker 1: head coach after all.
- 34:40Speaker 5: Well, until the ink is on the paper, then it's
- 34:44Speaker 5: not official, right. I mean, I have a hard time
- 34:46Speaker 5: feeling like they that any sort of love would have
- 34:50Speaker 5: been lost, right, I mean the fact that he left,
- 34:54Speaker 5: we knew that he left, and but then canceled his
- 34:58Speaker 5: you know, his meeting with the Titans and whoever else
- 35:01Speaker 5: it was Falcons, maybe they canceled a couple of interviews
- 35:04Speaker 5: after that. Well then that just leads you on the
- 35:06Speaker 5: path of, well, you're not canceling those unless you are
- 35:10Speaker 5: pretty dead set on that you liked that part of it.
- 35:13Speaker 5: And I have a hard time thinking that the Giants
- 35:15Speaker 5: are wanting to go backwards on the love that they
- 35:19Speaker 5: told him that led us to the point where he's
- 35:21Speaker 5: canceling meetings and all of this comes out and whoever
- 35:24Speaker 5: tells schefter whatever they tell him. But yeah, there's definitely something.
- 35:28Speaker 5: I do think it's something that we kind of talked
- 35:29Speaker 5: about with the whole thing where when we knew it
- 35:32Speaker 5: wasn't official yet, what was the hold up. I wouldn't
- 35:35Speaker 5: be surprised if it's something with the general manager where
- 35:37Speaker 5: it's like we talked and we're both have the same vision,
- 35:42Speaker 5: but that's an impeding element that I want gone. I
- 35:45Speaker 5: wouldn't be surprised if it's something like that that then
- 35:48Speaker 5: they're just trying to figure out how they can how
- 35:50Speaker 5: they can do that, or when they're going to pull
- 35:52Speaker 5: the trigger on something like that.
- 35:53Speaker 1: And just this morning on the place the station that
- 35:57Speaker 1: employs Adam Schefter. We're discussing that they are also looking
- 36:03Speaker 1: into the fact that the Green Bay Packer extension for
- 36:05Speaker 1: Lafleur has not been hammered out, and that was rumored,
- 36:10Speaker 1: like the day after they were eliminated, that the Packers
- 36:13Speaker 1: are gonna be are working on an extension for Lafleur.
- 36:16Speaker 1: So here we are five days later, six days later,
- 36:20Speaker 1: and we still don't have that. And we are more
- 36:23Speaker 1: than twenty four hours after Schefter's report about Harbaugh and
- 36:26Speaker 1: we don't have that. So maybe there is a connection there.
- 36:30Speaker 1: Maybe Harball really does like the idea of coaching the
- 36:33Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers and wants to wait and see if
- 36:36Speaker 1: Lafleur ends up re signing or not, if that job
- 36:40Speaker 1: becomes available. Maybe John Harbaugh is thinking to himself, well,
- 36:44Speaker 1: I don't want to sign with the Giants when I'd
- 36:46Speaker 1: rather be there with that roster, that history, that organization.
- 36:50Speaker 1: So we'll see, we'll see what's gonna happen. But it
- 36:53Speaker 1: is I think certainly notable, and I would even put
- 36:57Speaker 1: in the category of curious that after those hot rumors
- 37:02Speaker 1: about how close those two guys were to signing deals,
- 37:06Speaker 1: that they're still not signed at this stage, so I
- 37:10Speaker 1: think that was certainly share coachery worthy here this morning,
- 37:15Speaker 1: on this football Friday. All right, Hugh Mellin's next. We
- 37:18Speaker 1: got x's and o's. I've been waiting all morning. I'm
- 37:21Speaker 1: sure you have as well to hear what Hugh thinks
- 37:23Speaker 1: of the Sam Darnold injury report and how he could
- 37:27Speaker 1: play through oblique injury of any kind. So we'll ask
- 37:32Speaker 1: our QB one next on KJR
