- 0:25Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 0:26Speaker 3: To be honest, you missed us a little bit yesterday.
- 0:28Speaker 3: We crossed your minds.
- 0:30Speaker 2: No? No. Yeah, I guess so. The round table is
- 0:34Speaker 2: kind of busy, but yeah. Yeah, yeah.
- 0:37Speaker 4: You put word in his mouth.
- 0:39Speaker 3: I know. I think I did. Well, we were thinking
- 0:42Speaker 3: of you.
- 0:42Speaker 4: Yes, we were.
- 0:42Speaker 3: We were thinking of you. All right, good to have
- 0:45Speaker 3: you with us here this morning.
- 0:47Speaker 5: All right, let's dive in. Julian Love, I mean, Hugh
- 0:50Speaker 5: Millen has stated it. Had he played against the Commanders,
- 0:53Speaker 5: we would have won that football game. So is he
- 0:57Speaker 5: going to be healthy enough to play against the Chargers?
- 1:01Speaker 2: Looks like it, sounds like it. Hearing from him, he
- 1:04Speaker 2: says he's good. He's just got to make sure he
- 1:07Speaker 2: stays good these next two days. He's practiced the last
- 1:10Speaker 2: two days. He has a press conference during the week.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Usually they don't trot up players in weekly press conferences
- 1:16Speaker 2: that aren't going to play or that have injuries concerned.
- 1:19Speaker 2: So all signs are that he is going to play.
- 1:22Speaker 2: That can only help them, for sure.
- 1:24Speaker 3: Can we replay the Commander's game then, now that he's healthy?
- 1:27Speaker 3: Can we do that again?
- 1:28Speaker 1: No.
- 1:29Speaker 2: Because Julian Love wouldn't have turned the ball over three times.
- 1:33Speaker 2: They handed the Commanders three drive starts deep in Seahawks territory.
- 1:37Speaker 2: 21 points for the Commanders because of those three turnovers
- 1:40Speaker 2: that Julian Love couldn't have affected. But he no doubt
- 1:43Speaker 2: would have helped the defense and keep them from giving
- 1:46Speaker 2: up 12 other points beyond the 21 the offense handed them.
- 1:50Speaker 2: That coupled with Nick Eamon-Warry, I think getting more of
- 1:53Speaker 2: the Nick Eamon-Warry 2025 role is going to change the defense.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Those two are somewhat related because a lot of what
- 2:02Speaker 2: Neiman Worre did in Washington, he only played half the snaps,
- 2:06Speaker 2: but was in coverage. And if another good, not good,
- 2:12Speaker 2: elite and savvy cover guy who knows how to read
- 2:17Speaker 2: coverages and knows how to read routes and knows what
- 2:19Speaker 2: offense are trying to do, Julian Love, that could only
- 2:22Speaker 2: help to free up Neiman Worre to do other things
- 2:25Speaker 2: and drop into coverage like he did. much of the
- 2:27Speaker 2: time in washington we.
- 2:29Speaker 5: All want to see that the better people listening i'm
- 2:32Speaker 5: speaking on after the people listening uh... we they want
- 2:35Speaker 5: to see nikki manuori play the nikki manuori role uh...
- 2:39Speaker 5: is he ready for it uh... is he healthy enough
- 2:41Speaker 5: for it is I mean, he played sparingly this week,
- 2:45Speaker 5: but he didn't stand out like he normally stands out.
- 2:48Speaker 5: He didn't look 100% on the football field. Is he
- 2:51Speaker 5: healthy enough to fulfill that role? Is he practiced enough
- 2:55Speaker 5: to have his timing right for that role?
- 2:59Speaker 2: Well, he's fully participating in practice. I don't watch practices anymore.
- 3:03Speaker 2: I can't tell you what he looks like. They don't
- 3:05Speaker 2: let us. But he's listed as a full participant, which
- 3:08Speaker 2: he was not last week. for most of the week.
- 3:12Speaker 2: So it would suggest that he says he is, he
- 3:15Speaker 2: said he wants his full role and they have obviously
- 3:19Speaker 2: erred on the conservative side of his return. And now
- 3:23Speaker 2: we're three weeks into the season. And it sounds like
- 3:26Speaker 2: from judging what McDonald's words were at the beginning of
- 3:29Speaker 2: the week to the coaches. Now it's on them. And
- 3:31Speaker 2: he's the main McDonald's, the main coach called the defense.
- 3:34Speaker 2: It's on them to give him more roles. And so it's,
- 3:38Speaker 2: It looks like they're going to test him more toward that.
- 3:41Speaker 2: And I'd expect him to play at least three-fourths of
- 3:44Speaker 2: the snaps instead of half, if not more. And I
- 3:46Speaker 2: expect him to blitz. And I expect him to be
- 3:48Speaker 2: a linebacker and dime that they haven't played much of
- 3:51Speaker 2: this season. I do think the defense is going to change.
- 3:55Speaker 2: The Chargers are going to get stuff Sunday. They haven't
- 3:57Speaker 2: seen on film yet. But they're not so naive to
- 4:01Speaker 2: not know that Eamon Ward is coming in the 2025 version. Yeah,
- 4:04Speaker 2: how do you even.
- 4:07Speaker 5: If you're a Chargers fan, you look like your quarterback
- 4:11Speaker 5: and your offensive coordinator aren't on the same page. And
- 4:16Speaker 5: now you're getting ready to face basically the league's greatest
- 4:21Speaker 5: agent for creating confusion that there is defensively in Mike McDonald. So,
- 4:27Speaker 5: I mean, it just doesn't seem like a matchup for
- 4:30Speaker 5: the Chargers that they can get fixed this Sunday. It
- 4:35Speaker 5: seems to me like Mike McDonald's just licking his chops
- 4:39Speaker 5: over facing a pre-confused quarterback with the goal of confusing
- 4:43Speaker 5: him further.
- 4:45Speaker 2: Well, it hasn't meshed well. Mike McDaniel, there's a lot
- 4:50Speaker 2: of motion and orbit motions and all this crazy stuff
- 4:54Speaker 2: right before the snap. And then the snap happens and
- 4:57Speaker 2: you have to play and all that window dressing eventually
- 4:59Speaker 2: comes down to having to execute the plays. Talking to
- 5:02Speaker 2: Chargers people this week, they say that there have been
- 5:06Speaker 2: guys open early in plays, quick passes that Justin Herbert
- 5:09Speaker 2: has not thrown to. And he's held onto the ball
- 5:12Speaker 2: a long time. He's been sacked eight times in three games.
- 5:15Speaker 2: So is this the week that Herbert throws the ball quickly?
- 5:18Speaker 2: This would seem to be the defense that you'd want
- 5:20Speaker 2: the ball out quickly. That's what teams that play the
- 5:23Speaker 2: Seahawks habitually do. And you hear the Seahawks defensive players
- 5:27Speaker 2: frustratingly talk about it all the time. And it's tough
- 5:29Speaker 2: to give a quarterback when they get the ball out
- 5:31Speaker 2: so quickly. Mariota did it in Washington last week. And,
- 5:34Speaker 2: That was the number one part of the game plan
- 5:36Speaker 2: for Washington. When they threw, it was going to be quick,
- 5:39Speaker 2: and Drake May was a lot of the same way
- 5:41Speaker 2: until the end of the game when they had to throw,
- 5:43Speaker 2: and the Seahawks teed off on them. I would expect
- 5:48Speaker 2: Justin Herbert and the Chargers game plan to be quick throws,
- 5:52Speaker 2: and maybe this will be the week the Chargers actually
- 5:55Speaker 2: do what McDaniel wants to do, because when he was
- 5:57Speaker 2: at Miami, it was the same thing. Of course, he
- 5:59Speaker 2: had Tyreek in his prime, Tyreek Hill, and he featured
- 6:03Speaker 2: him short and gave him the ball quickly so he
- 6:05Speaker 2: could run an open space, they don't have a Tyree kill.
- 6:08Speaker 2: And part of the Chargers' problem is they don't have
- 6:10Speaker 2: a game-breaking receiver. They have Ladd McConkie, who's their guy.
- 6:14Speaker 2: He had a crack rib in week one. Crack rib,
- 6:18Speaker 2: you barely can breathe when you have a crack rib.
- 6:20Speaker 2: What a little bone to go play football. So the
- 6:23Speaker 2: one guy they have had as a receiving threat has
- 6:26Speaker 2: been hurt. Williams, a rookie, dropping passes. It's not just
- 6:31Speaker 2: Justin Herbert's fault that they're 0-3, but I would expect
- 6:35Speaker 2: the Chargers to change and do a really more like
- 6:38Speaker 2: a Washington type of a game plan and get the
- 6:40Speaker 2: ball out quickly and try to negate what McDonald's doing pressure-wise.
- 6:44Speaker 5: Greg Bell is with us, our Seahawks insider. You can
- 6:46Speaker 5: follow his coverage of the Seahawks at thenewstribune.com and, of course,
- 6:50Speaker 5: follow him on.
- 6:51Speaker 3: X at gbell.com. Seattle.
- 6:53Speaker 5: All right, let's talk about the running game and start
- 6:56Speaker 5: the conversation at right guard. Are they going to settle
- 6:59Speaker 5: on one guy there at right guard to replace Anthony
- 7:02Speaker 5: Bradford or what's that going to look like?
- 7:04Speaker 3: And then go to the.
- 7:07Speaker 5: Running back group and just how far out of the
- 7:11Speaker 5: doghouse Jadarian Price is right now.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like they are going to use both
- 7:17Speaker 2: Haynes and Stevens again. Brad Fleury yesterday saying that They
- 7:21Speaker 2: see a lot of value in Stevens getting reps now
- 7:24Speaker 2: so that if they have to play him an extended
- 7:26Speaker 2: period of time down the road, it won't be his
- 7:28Speaker 2: first work. Fleury did say that they'd be perfectly happy
- 7:34Speaker 2: with Haynes playing an entire game and starting for Anthony
- 7:37Speaker 2: Bradford the next couple games. Bradford's still on the injury
- 7:39Speaker 2: reserve list, so he's got to miss a couple more games.
- 7:42Speaker 2: So it sounds like status quo there. McDonald said maybe
- 7:46Speaker 2: it won't work out to a 60-40 split, which is
- 7:48Speaker 2: what it was in Washington. Haynes started and got 60%
- 7:51Speaker 2: on his darn near half of his reps for the
- 7:54Speaker 2: rookie Stevens. You may see fewer reps for Stevens this
- 7:57Speaker 2: time if you read between the lines. As far as
- 8:00Speaker 2: the running backs, Jedarian Price did not practice yesterday. That's
- 8:03Speaker 2: a step back. He was a limited participant with that
- 8:06Speaker 2: chest-shoulder issue he had in Arizona, and then yesterday did
- 8:10Speaker 2: not practice. Guys usually don't go backwards and go from
- 8:14Speaker 2: practicing to not practicing on Thursday and then still playing
- 8:17Speaker 2: in the game. So that could mean Velas Jones up
- 8:20Speaker 2: from the practice squad, who was active for last week's game,
- 8:23Speaker 2: getting more of a role. We saw Emmanuel Wilson just
- 8:26Speaker 2: not being able to outrun defenders at Washington. He would
- 8:30Speaker 2: get more of a role. Zach Charbonnet returned to practice yesterday.
- 8:35Speaker 2: That was the news of the practice day. That begins
- 8:37Speaker 2: his 21-day window off the physically unable-to-perform list. He's not
- 8:41Speaker 2: eligible to play until after the fourth game. I think
- 8:45Speaker 2: it'd be a surprise that he plays week five against
- 8:47Speaker 2: San Francisco next week, being that he hasn't been on
- 8:50Speaker 2: a field since January. But now there's a three-week ramp
- 8:55Speaker 2: up starting. So the cavalry is on the horizon. Hope
- 9:00Speaker 2: is on the way. But in the meantime, Price won't
- 9:03Speaker 2: get out of the doghouse until he plays a whole
- 9:05Speaker 2: game without dropping the ball. And he's got to get
- 9:08Speaker 2: the ball to not drop the ball. So if his health...
- 9:12Speaker 2: hasn't played, I'm expecting him to get a lot of
- 9:15Speaker 2: the ball early in the game because it's only October
- 9:19Speaker 2: 1st and they don't need to be checked out of
- 9:21Speaker 2: their lead rookie running back already after three games.
- 9:24Speaker 5: Seems like they might ask Zach Charbonnet could come in
- 9:28Speaker 5: pretty handy against the 49ers.
- 9:31Speaker 3: Would they speed up the process?
- 9:33Speaker 5: Would they send him out there even if they don't
- 9:36Speaker 5: feel 100% healthy? If they were 98, would they send
- 9:39Speaker 5: him out there?
- 9:40Speaker 2: I wouldn't. I wouldn't send a guy who's seven and
- 9:43Speaker 2: a half months out from a reconstructive knee surgery out
- 9:46Speaker 2: there before he's a fully 100%. You don't need Zach
- 9:49Speaker 2: Charbonnet October 5th, 11th. You need him January and, they hope, February.
- 9:55Speaker 2: It's a contract year for him, so there's a rub there.
- 9:58Speaker 2: He wants to get out there. there. Every week he
- 10:01Speaker 2: misses one fewer week to make dollars for either the
- 10:04Speaker 2: Seahawks or somebody next year when his rookie contract ends. Remember,
- 10:07Speaker 2: he's a second-round pick, so they don't have a 50-year option.
- 10:09Speaker 2: They didn't have a 50-year option. They would have had
- 10:11Speaker 2: to exercise in the spring anyway. But he doesn't have
- 10:15Speaker 2: a job after this year. And at that position in particular,
- 10:18Speaker 2: that's a problem. Part of Kenneth Walker's angst last year
- 10:22Speaker 2: of having a split time with Zach Charbonnet was every
- 10:25Speaker 2: snap and every carry he didn't get was money off
- 10:27Speaker 2: of his bank account because his contract was ending. And
- 10:32Speaker 2: Zach Charbonnet is feeling the same pressure. He's probably been
- 10:35Speaker 2: too preoccupied with getting healthy and getting back, but he's
- 10:38Speaker 2: now looking, oh, it's October. I've got four months left
- 10:41Speaker 2: in my contract. This ain't baseball or NFL or NBA
- 10:45Speaker 2: or hockey where those guys are guaranteed to get paid
- 10:48Speaker 2: next year no matter what they do. nah, you're guaranteed
- 10:51Speaker 2: in the NFL pretty much the year you're in. And
- 10:53Speaker 2: if you're in a rookie deal, you've got four years,
- 10:56Speaker 2: and his rookie deal ends this year. It's a whole
- 10:58Speaker 2: different dynamic than just saying, well, I can see the push-pull.
- 11:03Speaker 2: I can see the Seahawks, who are historically and habitually
- 11:06Speaker 2: conservative on medical things, and I can see Zach Sarban saying,
- 11:10Speaker 2: get me out there. I need to go start playing
- 11:12Speaker 2: and proving my worth.
- 11:13Speaker 5: All right, so what does this Sunday come down to?
- 11:16Speaker 5: What kind of game are we looking at? What kind
- 11:18Speaker 5: of result are we going to see?
- 11:19Speaker 2: Well, again, it's repeating itself, but if the offense doesn't
- 11:24Speaker 2: turn the ball over, I don't see a lot of
- 11:26Speaker 2: offenses moving the ball down the field on the Seahawks'
- 11:29Speaker 2: defense for multiple touchdowns, including the Chargers. That's the key.
- 11:34Speaker 2: Don't give the Chargers field position and points. They gave
- 11:37Speaker 2: the Commanders field position and points, 21 points, in fact,
- 11:41Speaker 2: and they lost by two. If the offense, Darnold, doesn't
- 11:45Speaker 2: throw interceptions, doesn't throw the ball for defensive lineman's helmet,
- 11:48Speaker 2: and price doesn't drop the ball or wilson doesn't drop
- 11:51Speaker 2: the ball and place a price no win and it's
- 11:55Speaker 2: a simplistic thing to say but the way the seahawks
- 11:57Speaker 2: defense is i could think i pretty much every game
- 12:01Speaker 2: except the 49ers and the rams on the seahawks schedule
- 12:03Speaker 2: i think i could say that same thing for it.
- 12:07Speaker 5: I don't know how much you're around uh coach mcdonald
- 12:09Speaker 5: this week but um I mean, is he veteran enough
- 12:12Speaker 5: that he just took that uncharacteristic performance in stride?
- 12:16Speaker 3: Or was there an edge to him this week? Was
- 12:19Speaker 3: there an anger to him this week?
- 12:20Speaker 5: Was he embarrassed at all that his normally stout defense
- 12:24Speaker 5: gave up touchdowns instead of field goals and everything else
- 12:27Speaker 5: that went into that contest?
- 12:29Speaker 2: No, he's ticked. He kind of played it off. He's
- 12:32Speaker 2: pissed off. Good. And he's pissed off about multiple things.
- 12:37Speaker 2: The main thing he keeps saying is we're not playing
- 12:39Speaker 2: the Seahawks way. This doesn't look like a Seahawks play.
- 12:43Speaker 2: It didn't look like a Seahawks performance. It didn't look
- 12:45Speaker 2: like a Seahawks game. He's been around enough for three...
- 12:47Speaker 2: He didn't say that first two years. He's been around
- 12:49Speaker 2: enough now to have established a standard. And they reached
- 12:54Speaker 2: or got to the standard last year to win the
- 12:55Speaker 2: Super Bowl, so everyone, including himself, knows what that is.
- 12:59Speaker 2: Including on kick returns and kick coverage on special teams.
- 13:02Speaker 2: That includes on defense, like you said, sudden change. Yeah,
- 13:06Speaker 2: it's not enough that the Commander's got the ball at
- 13:09Speaker 2: the 21-yard line. Now what? Don't let him in the
- 13:11Speaker 2: end zone, and they did. So, yeah, he probably wasn't
- 13:16Speaker 2: turning over tables and throwing coffee mugs around the building,
- 13:18Speaker 2: but he's not been happy this week for sure. All right.
- 13:22Speaker 3: Well, what do you got on the show today?
- 13:25Speaker 2: We're going to do our weekly high school football focus.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Today's featured game when we're going to talk to both
- 13:30Speaker 2: coaches is Eastlake at Skyline. Eastlake and Skyline High School
- 13:35Speaker 2: have two former prominent local college players, Greg Hurd at
- 13:38Speaker 2: Eastern Washington and Peyton Pelour from Washington State. Those are
- 13:42Speaker 2: the head coaches for Eastlake. And Skyline, their schools are
- 13:45Speaker 2: like 200 feet apart over there on the plateau. I
- 13:49Speaker 2: can't ever figure out why some kid goes to this
- 13:51Speaker 2: school and some kid goes to the other because they're
- 13:52Speaker 2: right next to each other with Eastside Catholic right in
- 13:55Speaker 2: the middle of the three of them. But, yeah, they
- 13:57Speaker 2: play tonight. We do every week, every Friday we do that.
- 14:00Speaker 2: We're going to detail the latest on the Seahawks injury
- 14:03Speaker 2: situation and figure that out. We're going to give Kraken
- 14:06Speaker 2: some love. You win 6-1 in your opener.
- 14:08Speaker 4: Let's go.
- 14:08Speaker 2: You get a segment. Yeah.
- 14:10Speaker 3: You get a segment.
- 14:11Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:11Speaker 3: Congratulations. You get a segment.
- 14:14Speaker 2: I'm sure they're really inspired for that. All right.
- 14:20Speaker 3: Well, thank you very much, sir. We appreciate it.
- 14:22Speaker 5: We'll check in with you on Monday and appreciate everything
- 14:26Speaker 5: this week.
- 14:28Speaker 2: All right, happy weekend. Thank you.

- 20:04Speaker 17: and that was Jaleah Hemmings.
- 20:06Speaker 3: She and her husband created Nourish and Bloom Market.
- 20:09Speaker 8: When we decided to open this 24-7 AI grocery store,
- 20:14Speaker 8: people thought we were crazy. But our first store was
- 20:17Speaker 8: completely community funded. And when your family and your friends
- 20:21Speaker 8: bet on you, it hits a little differently.
- 20:23Speaker 17: And the city of Atlanta took notice and decided to
- 20:25Speaker 17: be part of the change.
- 20:27Speaker 8: But the city actually put dollars behind that change and said,
- 20:31Speaker 8: if the big box stores won't come, we'll build our own.
- 20:34Speaker 17: And one community-funded store became several. But eradicating food deserts
- 20:37Speaker 17: across the country takes more than a village.
- 20:40Speaker 8: We won the AT & T Small Business Contest Grant.
- 20:44Speaker 8: And that was what we needed to open the first
- 20:46Speaker 8: AI-powered shipping container grocery store in the country. Having a

- 22:41Speaker 5: I've got a minute here. Hughes Chalk Talk. If you
- 22:44Speaker 5: haven't heard about this, listen up. A lot of you
- 22:47Speaker 5: for years have been listening to Hugh Millen break down
- 22:50Speaker 5: football like nobody else does in radio anywhere in the country.
- 22:54Speaker 3: I'm telling you.
- 22:56Speaker 5: And he goes a long way to try to create
- 23:00Speaker 5: in your mind's eye what's happening on that football field,
- 23:03Speaker 5: what happened during that given play.
- 23:06Speaker 3: Well, if you've wanted to have visuals.
- 23:10Speaker 5: Added to that, if you wanted to see him actually
- 23:12Speaker 5: work a whiteboard or maybe with a telestrator uh well
- 23:17Speaker 5: you're gonna have that opportunity he's going to do a
- 23:19Speaker 5: two-hour session film study session for you uh the listeners
- 23:25Speaker 5: at tolela resort casino next thursday starting at five o'clock
- 23:28Speaker 5: so five to seven now there's going to be limited
- 23:31Speaker 5: seating yes to this everybody is welcome to come but.
- 23:36Speaker 3: If you want to reserve your seat for you and.
- 23:40Speaker 5: A friend uh well let us know at 49451. That's
- 23:44Speaker 5: all you got to really do.
- 23:45Speaker 3: They go quickly.
- 23:46Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 23:47Speaker 5: For as long as the seats last, just let us know.
- 23:50Speaker 5: I do want to come and I need two tickets.
- 23:54Speaker 2: Yep.
- 23:54Speaker 3: I need two seats.
- 23:57Speaker 7: 49451.
- 23:57Speaker 5: Just hit us up on the text line and then
- 23:59Speaker 5: Chris is going to reach out to you via email,
- 24:02Speaker 5: I believe, to try to hammer out some details. But
- 24:06Speaker 5: for now, all you got to determine is Look at
- 24:09Speaker 5: your schedule. Are you free next Thursday? And do you
- 24:12Speaker 5: want to come? And if so, 49451, reserve a seat
- 24:17Speaker 5: or two to see Hugh Millen's Chalk Talk at Tulalip
- 24:19Speaker 5: Resort Casino next Thursday.
- 24:21Speaker 12: Correct.
- 24:22Speaker 18: And for example, Justin Musada, Derrick Henry, Latifah Johnson, those
- 24:26Speaker 18: are people that have already reserved their spots for multiple seats.
- 24:29Speaker 3: So, yes, do that now. Derrick Henry's showing up? This
- 24:32Speaker 3: is awesome.
- 24:33Speaker 4: When I saw that name, I had to throw it
- 24:35Speaker 4: out there because it was like, huh.
- 24:36Speaker 3: Hugh's going to be fired up. That's awesome.
- 24:40Speaker 5: Derrick Henry wants to come to Hugh Millen's Chalk Talk session.
- 24:44Speaker 3: That's amazing. Can't wait to meet that guy. I'm a
- 24:48Speaker 3: big fan.
- 24:48Speaker 4: Who's he playing the next day or two days later?
- 24:51Speaker 3: Who cares?
- 24:52Speaker 2: You know?
- 24:55Speaker 3: Yeah, that's going to be awesome. All right, so there
- 24:58Speaker 3: you go. Let us know if you want to go.
- 25:00Speaker 5: Because we probably are going to have to reserve your
- 25:03Speaker 5: seats for you if, in fact, you are interested. All right,
- 25:06Speaker 5: let's talk some UW football, you know, that Hugh Mellon
- 25:09Speaker 5: used to play for that UW football team.
- 25:11Speaker 3: Oh, that's right. I mean, there are must-wins, Anders.
- 25:15Speaker 5: I mean, I think people go too far with that,
- 25:18Speaker 5: especially early in the season.
- 25:20Speaker 2: Right.
- 25:21Speaker 3: But It's when do you use it?
- 25:23Speaker 5: Because if you wait to say a must-win when it
- 25:27Speaker 5: statistically is a must-win, there's.
- 25:29Speaker 3: No impact behind that.
- 25:31Speaker 5: Everybody knows, okay, there are three games left and we're
- 25:34Speaker 5: three games back, so obviously that's a must-win. But there is,
- 25:39Speaker 5: at some point in the season, there is a game
- 25:43Speaker 5: that isn't mathematically a must-win, but let's face it, it's
- 25:47Speaker 5: a must-win.
- 25:48Speaker 3: It's going to define your season most likely.
- 25:53Speaker 5: And so that's why the must-win has to be used
- 25:58Speaker 5: at the right time. And I think people use it prematurely.
- 26:03Speaker 5: I not only think this is a must-win for both
- 26:07Speaker 5: of these teams to save their seasons, I might.
- 26:11Speaker 3: Take it a step further.
- 26:12Speaker 4: What's a step further than that?
- 26:14Speaker 3: This might be a.
- 26:15Speaker 5: Must-win for Lincoln, Riley, and Jed Fish to save the
- 26:19Speaker 5: status of their programs.
- 26:22Speaker 3: I mean, think about it.
- 26:24Speaker 5: Like Lincoln Riley already has a fan base that hates
- 26:28Speaker 5: him and wants him out. Like if he not only
- 26:32Speaker 5: loses to Oregon, but then at home loses to Washington
- 26:36Speaker 5: where he's an eight and a half point favorite, the
- 26:39Speaker 5: wheels could completely come off of that bus. I mean,
- 26:41Speaker 5: there have been stories about his relationship with Jen Cohen
- 26:44Speaker 5: has gone sideways. And even though they would have to
- 26:47Speaker 5: eat like $ 70 million, uh, That they might be willing
- 26:51Speaker 5: to do it because the fan base is just that...
- 26:56Speaker 5: Disgusted with him?
- 26:58Speaker 3: Maybe that is the word. I was trying to think
- 26:59Speaker 3: of the right word. That's not what I was going
- 27:01Speaker 3: to go with, but maybe that is the right word. Disenchanted,
- 27:05Speaker 3: disenfranchised with him.
- 27:07Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 27:08Speaker 5: People don't want to go to the games. I mean,
- 27:10Speaker 5: there's some weather. They've had some hot weather there and
- 27:12Speaker 5: things of that nature.
- 27:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 27:14Speaker 4: It's Southern California.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Right.
- 27:16Speaker 3: But, you know, they're not filling up the stadium.
- 27:19Speaker 5: And so it's just the product right now, the program,
- 27:23Speaker 5: the brand, the logo is just in the toilet right
- 27:27Speaker 5: now by its own standards.
- 27:28Speaker 3: Yeah, of course.
- 27:29Speaker 5: By its very high lofty standards. I don't think it
- 27:32Speaker 5: goes that far.
- 27:33Speaker 3: With Jed and the Huskies right now.
- 27:39Speaker 5: I don't think that the fan base has the same
- 27:41Speaker 5: ire for him here in town, anywhere close to what
- 27:45Speaker 5: they have in USC for.
- 27:46Speaker 3: Lincoln Riley right now.
- 27:48Speaker 5: But I would say for a year, just like the
- 27:51Speaker 5: Mariners where there was promise and the goal was college
- 27:56Speaker 5: football playoff. And there was thought that maybe things break
- 28:00Speaker 5: the right way. And then you have three, you know,
- 28:05Speaker 5: lackluster wins. And then, You lose to Minnesota at home.
- 28:11Speaker 5: I mean, this could get you right. This could get
- 28:15Speaker 5: you back on track with a win at USC. But
- 28:19Speaker 5: if you lose it, and if you lose it ugly,
- 28:21Speaker 5: I mean, the fan base, it's not, I don't think,
- 28:26Speaker 5: angry with Jed.
- 28:27Speaker 2: Right.
- 28:27Speaker 5: But I think they're very much questioning the direction of
- 28:30Speaker 5: this program and its status right now. And an ugly
- 28:35Speaker 5: loss on Saturday, if USC wins and covers this game
- 28:38Speaker 5: on Saturday, I don't know what that is going to
- 28:41Speaker 5: do to the fan base.
- 28:42Speaker 18: Yeah, I think for UW's perspective, this would be a
- 28:45Speaker 18: bigger loss. Sorry, a bigger win than a bigger loss.
- 28:48Speaker 18: If they were to win this game, I feel like
- 28:50Speaker 18: it would have a higher impact positively than a loss
- 28:53Speaker 18: would negatively. Obviously, there's different situations. If you get absolutely
- 28:57Speaker 18: blown out, that's a different story. But I feel like
- 29:01Speaker 18: a win versus a ranked team in USC, no matter
- 29:05Speaker 18: what happened with them last week at Oregon, on the
- 29:08Speaker 18: road to kind of get things right and really kind
- 29:11Speaker 18: of get people thinking positively about this program again would
- 29:14Speaker 18: do a whole lot of good. Yet a loss would
- 29:18Speaker 18: kind of just kind of keep people thinking the same
- 29:20Speaker 18: thing as this team's just not as good as we
- 29:22Speaker 18: thought they were going to be this year.
- 29:23Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that, to use your word there,
- 29:26Speaker 3: that Husky fans are disgusted.
- 29:28Speaker 1: No.
- 29:29Speaker 5: With Jed Fish and his program right now, but they're
- 29:32Speaker 5: on the verge of being very angry about it.
- 29:36Speaker 3: Frustrated.
- 29:36Speaker 5: Very angry about it. yeah and some are i know
- 29:38Speaker 5: are already there some people are yelling at their radios
- 29:41Speaker 5: oh i'm way there i'm there uh but i think
- 29:44Speaker 5: that where us is already inflamed in anger their fan
- 29:47Speaker 5: base i don't feel that yet but i think that
- 29:51Speaker 5: a bad loss against usc these next two weeks are
- 29:54Speaker 5: going to be telling yeah yeah very telling all right
- 29:58Speaker 5: let's play some factor fiction But they.
- 30:01Speaker 3: Did it in like 1998.
- 30:01Speaker 4: So two years later.
- 30:03Speaker 5: It was like two years from now that they were predicting.
- 30:07Speaker 5: So I don't know. Maybe we can create some sort
- 30:09Speaker 5: of a.
- 30:10Speaker 3: Bit like that going forward. I like that. In the
- 30:14Speaker 3: year 3000. That's a bit of ways.
- 30:17Speaker 5: But anyway, a few things as we look into the future.
- 30:22Speaker 5: I don't know if you saw the story. You probably did.
- 30:23Speaker 5: But Gary Bettman finally spoke on the– no trade clauses
- 30:28Speaker 5: and the way that NHL players are using them right now.
- 30:32Speaker 5: And the Kraken suffered from this because Jason Robertson said, no,
- 30:36Speaker 5: I don't want to go there.
- 30:37Speaker 4: Artemi Panarin as well.
- 30:38Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to wait.
- 30:40Speaker 5: And so Bettman, this was his first public announcement of, no,
- 30:44Speaker 5: I don't like the way that they're using those no
- 30:46Speaker 5: trade clause and we're going to have to look at that.
- 30:49Speaker 5: So help me with this a little bit. I mean,
- 30:52Speaker 5: I don't think we have to look into the future
- 30:54Speaker 5: and figure out, I don't, how to word no trade
- 30:59Speaker 5: clauses going forward. Can't you just say... Can't NHL teams
- 31:05Speaker 5: just stop giving out no-trade clauses? Just don't put the
- 31:09Speaker 5: clause in the contract. If you don't like that the
- 31:13Speaker 5: players are using them to try to get to the
- 31:17Speaker 5: specific franchise that they want to go, then don't give
- 31:21Speaker 5: them no-trade clauses. Isn't it just that easy? Or do
- 31:24Speaker 5: you automatically now in the NHL get a no-trade clause?
- 31:27Speaker 18: No, it's not automatic, but I think because it's so standard...
- 31:32Speaker 18: Players that are negotiating for new extensions, free agent signings,
- 31:35Speaker 18: all that stuff, basically just expect that to be in there.
- 31:38Speaker 18: And if it's not, they'll go to the next team
- 31:40Speaker 18: that will give it to them at that point. It's
- 31:41Speaker 18: that valuable to them. But wait a minute.
- 31:44Speaker 5: Jason Robertson doesn't have a choice. He wasn't a free agent.
- 31:47Speaker 5: They gave him a no trade clause.
- 31:49Speaker 4: He was a restricted free agent.
- 31:51Speaker 18: So I think the I don't know the exact rules
- 31:56Speaker 18: on why that ends up. being the case, but his wasn't,
- 32:00Speaker 18: I don't think, a no-trade clause. It was because he
- 32:03Speaker 18: wasn't an unrestricted free agent. He was a restricted free agent.
- 32:06Speaker 18: It's the Kraken offer a certain amount of money, and
- 32:11Speaker 18: Dallas has the right to match it, but Jason Robertson
- 32:13Speaker 18: has to accept that offer.
- 32:15Speaker 5: No, I understand restricted free agency, but how did he
- 32:17Speaker 5: ever get a no-trade clause to begin with if he
- 32:20Speaker 5: wasn't a free agent?
- 32:21Speaker 4: I don't think he had enough. He just didn't accept
- 32:23Speaker 4: the offer from the Kraken.
- 32:24Speaker 18: He didn't want to go there. It wasn't a Dallas
- 32:27Speaker 18: was trying to trade him. It was the Kraken offered
- 32:30Speaker 18: him what would have been an RFA.
- 32:34Speaker 5: It hinged on whether the Kraken were going to give.
- 32:37Speaker 5: The Kraken said, no, we won't trade for him without
- 32:40Speaker 5: an extension.
- 32:42Speaker 18: No, Jason Robertson said no. He didn't accept.
- 32:46Speaker 3: How did he get the rights to do that?
- 32:48Speaker 18: That's, I think, how a restricted free agency works. You
- 32:51Speaker 18: can accept the offer that someone gives to you, Or
- 32:55Speaker 18: you can decline it and stay with the team that
- 32:58Speaker 18: you're on and hope that they offer you another deal.
- 33:02Speaker 3: But then why wasn't it a trade?
- 33:05Speaker 4: No, it was a restricted free agent signing.
- 33:08Speaker 5: So then how does a no trade clause come into
- 33:10Speaker 5: the conversation then? Then why is that– why is Gary
- 33:14Speaker 5: Bettman bothered by no trade clauses?
- 33:16Speaker 18: Because that's also another topic. So the Artemi Panarin would
- 33:19Speaker 18: be a more relevant example to this. At the deadline
- 33:22Speaker 18: last year, Artemi.
- 33:23Speaker 3: Panarin– Robertson? Yes, I did bring up Robertson.
- 33:29Speaker 4: Everyone did, yeah. It's a big topic in the offseason, yes.
- 33:32Speaker 5: Right, so still, it doesn't change the point.
- 33:34Speaker 2: Right.
- 33:35Speaker 5: Why are you giving people no trade clauses? Okay, if
- 33:38Speaker 5: he's a restricted free agent, those are completely different rules.
- 33:40Speaker 3: Correct, yes.
- 33:41Speaker 5: What Gary Bettman is saying is that I am going
- 33:43Speaker 5: to stop. I'm going to look into the way players
- 33:47Speaker 5: are using no trade clauses. Well, I don't think you
- 33:50Speaker 5: have to change any of the verbiage. And NHL teams
- 33:54Speaker 5: just need to stop including no trade clauses in their contracts.
- 33:57Speaker 7: Right.
- 33:57Speaker 3: I mean, just do that and then you don't have
- 33:59Speaker 3: to worry about it anymore.
- 34:01Speaker 18: Yeah, I think that that should be the way to
- 34:04Speaker 18: go forward. But like I said, because it's such a
- 34:06Speaker 18: standard now, if you don't offer a no trade clause
- 34:08Speaker 18: in a contract, the player, whether it's an extension or
- 34:12Speaker 18: a free agent signing, just won't sign with you. Like
- 34:14Speaker 18: he'll move on and you risk losing the player altogether.
- 34:19Speaker 18: So that is kind of the more... The bigger topic
- 34:23Speaker 18: with both the Artemi Panarin situation and the Jason Robertson
- 34:27Speaker 18: situation is that when players have a choice, more often
- 34:31Speaker 18: than not, they are choosing not to come to Seattle.
- 34:34Speaker 18: Whether it is because they have a no-trade clause, and
- 34:37Speaker 18: the Kraken tried to trade for Artemi Panarin in New York,
- 34:40Speaker 18: but he exercised his no-move clause because he wanted to
- 34:44Speaker 18: go to LA, and then... the restricted free agent situation
- 34:47Speaker 18: where the Kraken offered Jason Robertson a bunch of money
- 34:50Speaker 18: on a deal that he could have accepted, but he
- 34:52Speaker 18: didn't because he didn't want to go to Seattle. So
- 34:55Speaker 18: that's kind of the bigger picture with regards to the Kraken.
- 34:58Speaker 18: But in terms of the no trade clause situation, it's true.
- 35:02Speaker 18: Almost every single player, not even just the big name players,
- 35:04Speaker 18: everyone has no trade clauses now.
- 35:07Speaker 3: So stop doing it. But that's my entire point.
- 35:11Speaker 18: But because everyone has it, Now, if you're a player
- 35:16Speaker 18: and you're negotiating a contract, you're not allowing yourself to
- 35:19Speaker 18: not have one.
- 35:20Speaker 5: If I had a no trade clause, then I'm going
- 35:23Speaker 5: to try to use my no trade clause. And if
- 35:25Speaker 5: a team wants to try to trade me, then, yeah,
- 35:27Speaker 5: I'm going to try to.
- 35:28Speaker 4: Of course.
- 35:29Speaker 5: I don't think that the problem is that a player
- 35:31Speaker 5: is going to use his no trade clause. If you're
- 35:33Speaker 5: going to trade me, we're going to trade me because
- 35:35Speaker 5: we work this out.
- 35:36Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 35:37Speaker 5: The problem is that every player has a no trade clause, apparently.
- 35:40Speaker 5: So stop giving no trade clauses.
- 35:42Speaker 18: But Chuck, if you're on a free agent that you
- 35:45Speaker 18: know is going to be a difference maker to your team,
- 35:48Speaker 18: and the difference between you signing him isn't any more money,
- 35:51Speaker 18: and a salary cap league, by the way, isn't giving
- 35:54Speaker 18: him $ 10 million more. It's, hey, give me a no
- 35:58Speaker 18: trade clause and I'll sign. You're going to you're going
- 36:00Speaker 18: to make that signing like that's just a way. And
- 36:02Speaker 18: now every player is asking for it. So I think
- 36:05Speaker 18: there does need to be some legislation to kind of
- 36:08Speaker 18: limit the ability to do that a little bit more.
- 36:10Speaker 18: Like I said, just because it's become such a standard
- 36:13Speaker 18: thing in the NHL today.
- 36:14Speaker 5: Well, I thought that was something that in other sports
- 36:18Speaker 5: you'd negotiate. And it was a it's not like a rarity.
- 36:23Speaker 2: Sure. But.
- 36:25Speaker 5: Certainly they haven't had the issue in other sports with
- 36:28Speaker 5: no trade clauses that the NHL seems to.
- 36:30Speaker 3: Be having right now.
- 36:32Speaker 5: So I think it's easy. Just don't just disallow no
- 36:36Speaker 5: trade clauses. In a salary-capped sport, though, it's a lot harder.
- 36:41Speaker 5: This segment didn't go anywhere the way I was planning
- 36:44Speaker 5: on it going. So I'm not going to be able
- 36:47Speaker 5: to get to the actual two things I wanted to discuss.
- 36:50Speaker 3: But the Ocho is going to come your way next.
