Speaker 1: Hot take humps Day eight seven seven seven three with
0:04
Speaker 1: all the news, do we have hot takes? Is there
0:06
Speaker 1: a hot take on Abner Ureba shouldn't have done what
0:08
Speaker 1: he did?
0:09
Speaker 2: Yeah?
0:09
Speaker 3: I mean like that's the hot take, shouldn't have done it?
0:11
Speaker 4: However, awesome like you you rip a DX, I'm gonna
0:15
Speaker 4: I'm gonna enjoy it. Now, there's a time and a place.
0:18
Speaker 4: Is the eighth inning on the mound in a six
0:20
Speaker 4: to zero game? The place no, no, no, but still
0:24
Speaker 4: a hilarious one to be able to have. And if
0:26
Speaker 4: it was to any other team other than the Cubs
0:28
Speaker 4: and Cardinals, I guess I'd maybe have a little bit
0:31
Speaker 4: of a problem with it. But I love it. I
0:33
Speaker 4: love seeing DX reaching the next generation.
0:35
Speaker 5: I think the hot take I would have is that
0:37
Speaker 5: I think people wouldn't be reacting so negatively, at least
0:39
Speaker 5: Brewer fans would. Some are reacting negatively like this wasn't classy,
0:43
Speaker 5: this is kind of clown stuff. If he was having
0:45
Speaker 5: a better year, I think he's kind of been having
0:47
Speaker 5: a mid year, if that's fair to say, like not
0:49
Speaker 5: his usual lights out stuff. If he was lights out,
0:53
Speaker 5: gonna be an All Star, just blowing away the League. Again,
0:56
Speaker 5: like I think Bruce fans be fine with it. I
0:58
Speaker 5: think I think people view the prism of those type
1:01
Speaker 5: of things based on your performance on the field, and
1:04
Speaker 5: they'll adjust their opinion as such. So if there is
1:06
Speaker 5: some sort of quote unquote hot take on it, I
1:08
Speaker 5: think that would be my hot take is.
1:10
Speaker 3: I was a little surprised to see so many people
1:12
Speaker 3: kind of say this is just so wrong and so
1:15
Speaker 3: bad and so ry.
1:17
Speaker 5: Okay, it's a little bit on sports. I'mlike Pat had
1:20
Speaker 5: the conversation with him. We're up six nothing. We will
1:23
Speaker 5: will be interesting to see if the Cardinals do retaliate
1:26
Speaker 5: in any sort of way. It seems like those type
1:28
Speaker 5: of things don't exist as much as they used to, Drew.
1:30
Speaker 1: And don't you're not gonna see anything, I don't think. Yeah, yeah,
1:34
Speaker 1: depends on how the game goes. Cardinals just want to
1:36
Speaker 1: win a game and get out of town.
1:38
Speaker 3: Well that's the other thing.
1:39
Speaker 4: Like if it was if it was a one to
1:40
Speaker 4: one series draw, maybe it'd be a different deal. But
1:43
Speaker 4: you're right, Drew, they they want to get home. They've
1:45
Speaker 4: had a game rained out, they've lost three straight, they've
1:47
Speaker 4: been two games rained out in Cincy and and they're
1:51
Speaker 4: they're ready to get home. They're they're on they're on
1:53
Speaker 4: a travel day, and uh, I think they have a
1:55
Speaker 4: big old off day circle tomorrow before the Cubs come
1:58
Speaker 4: to town. So yeah, I think the Cardinals are are
2:01
Speaker 4: well equipped to stock that one away. And uh probably
2:05
Speaker 4: wait till the five games in four days that they
2:06
Speaker 4: play later on into the summer, right in the heat
2:09
Speaker 4: of July. That might be where you see something actually happen,
2:13
Speaker 4: because that's when you can get a little bit more uh,
2:15
Speaker 4: you know, a little bit more lathered up in a
2:17
Speaker 4: little bit more uh pissing the fingers.
2:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, Drew, Derek and Whitewater.
2:21
Speaker 5: Should I be looking for Abner at the Rock County
2:23
Speaker 5: Fair when the New Age Outlaws come this summer?
2:26
Speaker 4: I hope, so, dude, I hope. So that'd be amazing.
2:29
Speaker 4: I think I think he should come to Uh he
2:31
Speaker 4: should rip that out at the Blizzard Prawl. I gat
2:34
Speaker 4: champions talking Great LA Championship Wrestling. Are you kid meet
2:37
Speaker 4: Dave Hero? He saw that last night. He's like, Hey,
2:40
Speaker 4: this guy's special guest referee, Abner youuiba. There's a lot
2:43
Speaker 4: of good opportunities that we could get there. There's some
2:45
Speaker 4: money making opportunities for Abner. There life A lot of.
2:47
Speaker 5: People, do think, just are not aware of the wrestling
2:49
Speaker 5: reference in general, the majority, Yeah, I mean, I think
2:51
Speaker 5: the majority of people aren't saying, oh, you're just making
2:53
Speaker 5: a sexual gesture or something like that.
2:55
Speaker 3: Maybe, or just.
2:56
Speaker 4: Like the Rogers won when he did the hip thrust
2:59
Speaker 4: and the fifteen yard penalty, I don't think a lot
3:02
Speaker 4: of people thought it was a Key and Peel comedy
3:03
Speaker 4: central skill exactly right.
3:06
Speaker 5: And you know, the San Francisco Giants outfielders have been
3:08
Speaker 5: doing some stuff like that. I don't know if that's
3:10
Speaker 5: a reference as well, But I think sometimes people don't
3:12
Speaker 5: understand that there is a reference to it in some
3:14
Speaker 5: of these things wrestling or what have you, and they
3:17
Speaker 5: just assume things otherwise. Once they maybe realize, oh that's
3:21
Speaker 5: a reference to this, maybe they still wouldn't like it,
3:24
Speaker 5: but they'd understand why it's coming more, you know.
3:26
Speaker 3: Yeah.
3:27
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven see nicolay Lot dot com talk text
3:31
Speaker 1: line get us your hot takes. We did talk. We

Speaker 1: As you go. Do we think so? Do we think
3:54
Speaker 1: that that's.
3:54
Speaker 3: Being more coverage? That's a good that's not a hot take,
3:57
Speaker 3: that's a true take.
3:58
Speaker 4: I mean, for four letter network has not covered the
4:00
Speaker 4: Verabel thing at all, so maybe they'll maybe they'll cover
4:02
Speaker 4: that one here today.
4:03
Speaker 1: Who knows?
4:04
Speaker 2: Uh?
4:04
Speaker 4: As uh, we haven't had a post drop in a while,
4:07
Speaker 4: have we? Since the schedule of the lease drop. We
4:10
Speaker 4: haven't seen anything from the New York Post.

Speaker 4: Mike Vrabel will actually get to talk about football today
4:14
Speaker 4: instead of instead of everything. Maybe maybe, but I'm not sure.
4:18
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say probably not. The other one on a
4:21
Speaker 4: hot take, guys, I don't know if you saw this.
4:22
Speaker 4: We saw it yesterday as we were leaving the station
4:26
Speaker 4: and departing. Did you guys see the sick twisted video
4:30
Speaker 4: and then get ready for me? Get ready with me
4:32
Speaker 4: of Bryce Harper? What the toothpaste in his mouth?
4:36
Speaker 3: When you said video. I think it will have it.
4:38
Speaker 5: Sorry, yes, yeah, I'll explain this off the internet. I'm sorry,
4:45
Speaker 5: I'm sorry. I don't know where we're going. You talked
4:47
Speaker 5: about it though, yet we talked about yesterdays. Oh yes,
4:49
Speaker 5: explain the Bryce Abordu.
4:50
Speaker 4: So the Bryce Harper video is my man taking the toothpaste,
4:55
Speaker 4: squirting it into his mouth, pause, and then applying with
4:59
Speaker 4: the toothbrush, bro it through. So I thought before I
5:02
Speaker 4: hate it. You can't knock it until you tried it.
5:04
Speaker 4: So you try to try the interest of sciences.
5:06
Speaker 3: You try it.
5:07
Speaker 4: I take it might be he might be onto something.
5:09
Speaker 4: He actually might be onto something. It was very very strange.
5:14
Speaker 4: It felt very odd.
5:16
Speaker 3: I felt like I was putting my pants on backwards. Pause.
5:20
Speaker 3: That is an odd feeling when you do it. But
5:21
Speaker 3: I'll tell you this.
5:22
Speaker 4: I woke up this morning in my breath was minty fresh, okay,
5:25
Speaker 4: And that floor I stay down there all day, all
5:27
Speaker 4: night long, and one water down.
5:29
Speaker 3: Bryce Harper might be onto something. So Bryce Harper does
5:33
Speaker 3: the toothpaste first before.
5:37
Speaker 1: The brush.
5:38
Speaker 5: But am I the only one wondering? Because I always
5:41
Speaker 5: put water on the toothpaste? Am I the only one
5:43
Speaker 5: that does this well?
5:44
Speaker 3: I thought everyone. No, But I'll tell you this.
5:46
Speaker 1: You wet the brush first and then put the toothpaste down.
5:49
Speaker 5: Oh so you're saying you wet the Oh so you
5:51
Speaker 5: wet the okay, Like it's like putting dry shampoo on
5:55
Speaker 5: your hair.
5:56
Speaker 3: One dry hair or do you wet your hair first
5:58
Speaker 3: then put the shampoo on.
6:00
Speaker 1: You're supposed to want the hair there.
6:03
Speaker 4: It just seems weird to have that dry toothpaste in
6:06
Speaker 4: my mouth. I'm just hair and teeth are a bit different.
6:09
Speaker 4: One's naturally a little bit moister.
6:12
Speaker 3: I guess, Oh, yes, that's true. That's true. I mean,
6:15
Speaker 3: maybe it is, and you're saying it. You're saying it.
6:17
Speaker 3: The breath is better afterwards, Like, I don't know.
6:20
Speaker 4: I'll tell you I thought it was gonna be really
6:22
Speaker 4: uncomfortable and slimy and awkward, and it ended up being
6:25
Speaker 4: a much better and more pleasant experience than I anticipated.
6:28
Speaker 1: How many guys do get Ready with Me video?
6:30
Speaker 5: That's the other hot take here, I mean, I get
6:32
Speaker 5: ready video A though maybe maybe it's common more these
6:35
Speaker 5: days with like internet and young guys.
6:37
Speaker 3: I mean, trying to be a social presence.
6:40
Speaker 4: I guess we got to be on the talk, true,
6:42
Speaker 4: Are we not? Are we not on the I'm on
6:44
Speaker 4: the talk, but I don't.
6:45
Speaker 1: I don't put anything out there, but I lurk, and yes,
6:47
Speaker 1: what does it? Get Ready with me videos for dudes?
6:49
Speaker 1: Now get ready with me? Is I do a five
6:51
Speaker 1: am radio show?
6:52
Speaker 3: Is that weirder?
6:54
Speaker 1: Is what Bryce Harper did weirder than The rumor was
6:57
Speaker 1: that in the Yankees clubhouse, Alex Rodriguez, one of the clubbies,
7:00
Speaker 1: would hand him his toothbrush and had already loaded the
7:03
Speaker 1: toothpaste on it, like he had a toothpaste guy. I
7:05
Speaker 1: got to load his toothbrush with toothpaste and hand it
7:08
Speaker 1: to it so he didn't have to go through the
7:10
Speaker 1: step of putting the toothpaste on the tooth brush.
7:13
Speaker 3: You can't put your own damn toothpaste on it.
7:16
Speaker 1: That was like the level of service that a rod
7:19
Speaker 1: got allegedly in the Yankees clubhouse, where.
7:23
Speaker 3: What's the next step? Someone's gonna brush your damn teeth?
7:26
Speaker 3: What is someone brush your teeth for?
7:28
Speaker 1: On those rare occasions when you get to go to
7:29
Speaker 1: a country club or something like, in the men's locker room,
7:32
Speaker 1: they'll have like a little container sometimes of the toothpaste
7:37
Speaker 1: toothbrushes that are preloaded their single use. They already have
7:40
Speaker 1: the toothpaste brush.
7:42
Speaker 3: Because it's just like toothpaste.
7:43
Speaker 1: You just wet it and wet it and forget it.
7:45
Speaker 1: And disposable toothbrushes. Yeah, they used to have those country
7:49
Speaker 1: clubs and stuff where a few times that I've.
7:52
Speaker 3: I was gonna say yes.
7:55
Speaker 1: Or also, you know, was at a wedding and went
7:57
Speaker 1: to the bathroom and saw how the other half lives.
8:00
Speaker 3: Oh you mean those little baskets in the weddings that
8:02
Speaker 3: everyone has. We had to do that. This one's even better.
8:05
Speaker 1: Like the old the country club lack the club man cologne,
8:10
Speaker 1: and you got you got the disposable uh you know
8:15
Speaker 1: the shavers, you know the razors. How about those little
8:18
Speaker 1: floss picks flossers. Yes, but yeah, they also had like
8:22
Speaker 1: tooth brushes that were individually wrapped and you can just
8:24
Speaker 1: hit it and go to town brush teeth and thrown away.
8:27
Speaker 3: Go ahead, you know. I just I'm still stuck on
8:29
Speaker 3: the a rod that I would.
8:30
Speaker 4: I would be so much more surprised if it was
8:33
Speaker 4: anybody other than Alex.
8:35
Speaker 3: I think if any other human being.
8:37
Speaker 4: Other than a rod did it, I'd be like the
8:39
Speaker 4: hell's wrong with this that place?
8:42
Speaker 1: Right?
8:42
Speaker 3: Did Arod have a TP guy also as bust.
8:45
Speaker 4: You wonder if just right up underneath the saw, here's
8:50
Speaker 4: your four squares double ply Charman ultrasoft for you, just.
8:54
Speaker 5: What you requested, and uh listen now with the ultimate
8:57
Speaker 5: level of the be able to go instead of brushing
9:00
Speaker 5: your teeth, have a hygienus.
9:02
Speaker 3: Do a quick cleaning every morning.
9:03
Speaker 5: Would that be the ultimate level of luxury to have
9:05
Speaker 5: a dentist here? If you chose Man, that is wild stuff.
9:09
Speaker 5: That is by the way, smash YouTube subscribe if you're
9:11
Speaker 5: not subscribing our right, let's go. Yeah, I've smash the
9:14
Speaker 5: subscribe button and you can get it on the YouTube
9:16
Speaker 5: conversation as well. That Okay, I'll be honest with you.
9:20
Speaker 5: I gotta try it before I say it's crazy. So
9:22
Speaker 5: I'll try it today. I'll put the toothpaste on first.
9:25
Speaker 3: You can't put it back in the tube.
9:28
Speaker 2: There. I know.
9:28
Speaker 5: I know I'm gonna score too much because I'm not
9:30
Speaker 5: gonna have the reference of the eyes and the tooth because.
9:33
Speaker 1: It's the size of a p it shouldn't matter.
9:35
Speaker 3: It is when you put it on the toothbrush. Because
9:36
Speaker 3: you know it's a reference, a reference.
9:38
Speaker 5: I was told size didn't matter. I'm gonna probably squirt
9:40
Speaker 5: too much. It's gonna be nasty and all that stuff.
9:43
Speaker 3: Now what just a pause button just getting warmed out?
9:46
Speaker 1: Like the button too much? What's that's gonna squirt too
9:49
Speaker 1: much into his mouth? Too much volume for him to handle.
9:52
Speaker 2: There's way too much in there.
9:53
Speaker 3: I can't handle this well, white stuff on me. Well, okay,
9:57
Speaker 3: this is good, but I did say weird like that?
9:59
Speaker 5: What's you put the syrup on the hot fudge Sunday
10:02
Speaker 5: and then the ice cream in your mouth?
10:03
Speaker 3: What's next?
10:04
Speaker 5: Like you put the chocolate, the cocoa powder? How about
10:07
Speaker 5: I just put the coffee grounds in my mouth? Dunm't
10:09
Speaker 5: boiling water in my mouth and swish it around?
10:11
Speaker 3: Is that next?
10:12
Speaker 4: Like?
10:12
Speaker 3: Come on, there's a little level of like what's next here?
10:15
Speaker 3: You know?
10:16
Speaker 2: You know?
10:17
Speaker 3: There's nothing I don't.
10:18
Speaker 6: I don't.
10:18
Speaker 2: I don't know.
10:19
Speaker 1: I don't.
10:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't.
10:21
Speaker 1: The coffee ground.
10:22
Speaker 3: Who's who's having the coffee grounds? If there's coffee grounds
10:25
Speaker 3: in my cup, I pour that cup out to get
10:28
Speaker 3: a new cup.
10:29
Speaker 4: I guess that would now I do like the where
10:32
Speaker 4: you're going chocolate I mean the dry.
10:36
Speaker 1: Powder and then swish swishes the milk around with his
10:38
Speaker 1: oval teine.
10:39
Speaker 5: That's what next you put the buffalo is you scored
10:41
Speaker 5: the buffalo sauce in and then eat the dry wing.
10:43
Speaker 3: Actually that might not be They're crazy, right, Like there's
10:46
Speaker 3: been people have been putting the milk in the cereal
10:49
Speaker 3: bowl before the cereal for a long time. That's true,
10:52
Speaker 3: keep the cereal. That happening for a lot longer than
10:54
Speaker 3: you would anticipate the cereal crunchy.
10:56
Speaker 4: Also hot take from the World of Baseball and football
11:01
Speaker 4: The news in here and Drew for Travis Kelcey buying
11:04
Speaker 4: a piece of his hometown Cleveland Guardians hot take.
11:07
Speaker 3: People are trying to say that it was with Taylor
11:08
Speaker 3: Swift's money.
11:10
Speaker 1: Oh, come on, he's got cash.
11:13
Speaker 4: I think he's got enough money to be able to
11:15
Speaker 4: make the drop in the bucket donation. Now, they have
11:17
Speaker 4: not said exactly how much of the minority stake he
11:20
Speaker 4: is buying. He's a Cleveland guy, was just courtside at
11:24
Speaker 4: the Calves game. They're valued at one point seven billion dollars,
11:31
Speaker 4: a stark increase from the one billion dollar valuation they
11:33
Speaker 4: got in twenty twenty two, so a much different deal. However,
11:38
Speaker 4: he becomes another of the long line of guys over
11:41
Speaker 4: the last five or six years that are buying in
11:43
Speaker 4: on teams Lebron James Giannis obviously with the Brewers, Aaron,
11:47
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers with the Bucks, Kid Cunningham with the Rangers,
11:50
Speaker 4: but now into baseball even more, You've seen a lot
11:52
Speaker 4: of different teams.
11:53
Speaker 5: It's called what's called out more steadily than values of franchises.
11:57
Speaker 5: I mean, it's like a fantasy world.
11:58
Speaker 1: You can lose money year over year in your books
12:00
Speaker 1: and still have your asset appreciate it's fantasy world. But
12:03
Speaker 1: I think Aaron Rodgers put in I I heard in
12:06
Speaker 1: his unofficial I heard that he put in like five mil. Yeah,
12:09
Speaker 1: and it's probably now worth twenty so pretty good investment.
12:12
Speaker 4: And now I would like to know if we get
12:14
Speaker 4: Aaron back at the game, I would cash out.
12:16
Speaker 3: Can we get Aaron? Can we get Aaron back? In
12:18
Speaker 3: one game?
12:19
Speaker 1: Sitting right next to Mallory Eden's that was the rumor,
12:24
Speaker 1: remember that one.
12:26
Speaker 5: She was good to see her back though at the
12:28
Speaker 5: draft again yeah yeah, so she Yeah, she's back in
12:31
Speaker 5: the public eye.
12:32
Speaker 1: But now that he's married, although again the underreported story
12:36
Speaker 1: in all of media in sports is like, how is
12:38
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers hidden his wife's identity and her name, image likeness?
12:43
Speaker 3: It's remarkable, dude?
12:45
Speaker 1: Is that the secret that he has, which again makes
12:48
Speaker 1: you think he is such a conspiracy theorist and a
12:52
Speaker 1: rug puller that I don't know, man, maybe it doesn't
12:53
Speaker 1: work and he just looked in a sociological experiment.
12:56
Speaker 3: How dare you?
12:57
Speaker 5: And then but he's the type of guy that will
12:58
Speaker 5: come back in ten years. See you guys, just believe it.
13:00
Speaker 5: You didn't think to ask, Remember that was his thing.
13:04
Speaker 5: You didn't think it wrong. Now, by the way, that
13:06
Speaker 5: picture floating around the internet is not her. That's a
13:08
Speaker 5: fake picture. Apparently there was a picture of someone with him.
13:12
Speaker 5: It's like an AI deal genius stuff.
13:14
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot of lot of AI works on
13:17
Speaker 4: this one. I do think the one thing that it
13:19
Speaker 4: talks about with that it bodes for Aaron is that
13:22
Speaker 4: I fully believe him when he says, well, I'm done
13:24
Speaker 4: playing football, I'm out, I'm hanging out.
13:28
Speaker 3: In the rainforest. You're gonna have no clue.
13:30
Speaker 4: We're gonna find Aaron Rodgers in like ten years, five
13:33
Speaker 4: or ten years when he comes back for his Jersey
13:36
Speaker 4: retirement at lambeau Field.
13:37
Speaker 3: Looking like a shaman.
13:38
Speaker 1: What if he just got a duck dynasty.
13:40
Speaker 3: Here, like a huge one, was just wearing some sort of.
13:43
Speaker 4: Just living out on the Alps, lost like thirty pounds
13:46
Speaker 4: was just real fanby, I would not be stunned.
13:50
Speaker 5: Yeah, selling you a tea, you know, herbal teas and
13:53
Speaker 5: stuff like that.
13:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that would be true.
13:56
Speaker 5: Although I do think he's gonna want a golf and
13:58
Speaker 5: do those type of things and still be involved than
14:00
Speaker 5: the like the fancy stuff like Kentucky Derby party and golfing.
14:04
Speaker 3: What's the big the big tournament?
14:06
Speaker 1: Sorrying about the thing.
14:08
Speaker 5: So I don't think it'll be totally out of the
14:10
Speaker 5: public eye. I'm still curious about that. It will be
14:12
Speaker 5: interesting to know because eventually, yeah, we got to know,
14:15
Speaker 5: like is he's still an investor in the box and
14:17
Speaker 5: things like that, so that.
14:19
Speaker 3: Would be good to know. But yeah, that would be
14:21
Speaker 3: the beard.
14:22
Speaker 5: I could see him growing a big beard because he
14:23
Speaker 5: already started with the hair about five six years ago.
14:25
Speaker 5: Oh for sure, he's gotten it cut since then, so
14:29
Speaker 5: he didn't keep that thing going.
14:31
Speaker 3: But I love this from Austin and spring Grove.
14:33
Speaker 5: By the way, the text line and nickolay lot dot
14:35
Speaker 5: com talking text line before I forget, I have to
14:37
Speaker 5: read this one talking about those baskets and the weddings
14:40
Speaker 5: and stuff like that with the cologne in the clubhouse.
14:43
Speaker 5: I thought, for the longest time the venue supplyed those
14:45
Speaker 5: wedding baskets in the bathroom until I got married and
14:47
Speaker 5: my wife was.
14:48
Speaker 3: Filling one up mine blown. Oh well, to participate.
14:53
Speaker 5: That's that's a good stuff, Austin, that's good stuff right there.
14:56
Speaker 1: That's pretty funny, all right. Eight seven seven Time for
15:00
Speaker 1: our current electric superhero of the day. And because of
15:05
Speaker 1: everything that's happening, I'm leaning towards Hunter bomb Gun.
15:08
Speaker 4: I was just gonna say, dude, we're gonna get Hunter
15:10
Speaker 4: in here to have a conversation with Josh Mauer. Great
15:12
Speaker 4: report on the Brewers yesterday. Now some honorable mentions. Three
15:15
Speaker 4: hit night for Christian Yelich, Homer for Jake Bowers, and
15:18
Speaker 4: a pretty impressive crab walk as well for Jake Bowers
15:21
Speaker 4: yesterday play.
15:22
Speaker 5: I explained it to Laura that was, you know, she's like,
15:24
Speaker 5: pretty good. I ever seen that in the baseball field.
15:26
Speaker 1: Pretty good blast. What twenty feet for Garrett Mitchell too.
15:30
Speaker 4: That was and he had been waiting for that one
15:32
Speaker 4: and he needed it, desperately needed it though. The one
15:35
Speaker 4: hit out of three three strikeouts, but a three run shot.
15:39
Speaker 4: That'll work. Earl Weaver would have loved that. One pitching
15:41
Speaker 4: defense and three run homers the best recipe in all
15:43
Speaker 4: of baseball, and probably an honorable mention for Kyle Harrison
15:47
Speaker 4: and their six innings for Yeah, four hits, no ernies
15:51
Speaker 4: him and Miserowski on the month of May. Now miss
15:55
Speaker 4: will get one more start in the month. So these
15:56
Speaker 4: numbers are some unofficial fifty nine and a third pitched
16:01
Speaker 4: and a whopping combined four earned runs. I mean, that's
16:04
Speaker 4: just a disgusting run that these two have been on.
16:07
Speaker 4: And it's remarkable to see that Craig Breslow even answers
16:12
Speaker 4: the phone. If indeed Matt Arnold ever calls Craig Breslow
16:17
Speaker 4: while he is still the general manager of the Boston
16:19
Speaker 4: Red Sox, I would hit reports spam so quickly.
16:23
Speaker 1: On that thing.
16:23
Speaker 4: It would be instant blocked and reported blocked and reported
16:28
Speaker 4: right away, because I would want no parts of making
16:30
Speaker 4: another trade with the Brewers.
16:31
Speaker 3: If I'm the red size. So you got to send
16:32
Speaker 3: him like a fruit basket or something. Everything he might need,
16:35
Speaker 3: an edible arrangement, Yeah, you're.
16:36
Speaker 5: Right, for everything, just every Christmas and the family. Maybe
16:39
Speaker 5: some sort of edible arrangement or or does.
16:42
Speaker 4: He just send a Christmas card of him standing in
16:44
Speaker 4: the outfield with Kyle Harrison and Quinn Priest one.
16:46
Speaker 5: Of those Newski's Bacon deals, you know, like yeah, or
16:49
Speaker 5: like yeah with.
16:50
Speaker 1: The card from Omaha Steaks.
16:51
Speaker 5: Yeah, make that like you know, the frame picture with
16:55
Speaker 5: those guys. Man, that has really worked out well for
16:58
Speaker 5: the Brewers. Pretty good best best trades since Quinn Priester.
17:03
Speaker 4: Get right, Yeah, well that's you gotta add them all,
17:06
Speaker 4: both of them in there and listen. The best thing
17:09
Speaker 4: other than all of those guys that we mentioned Colonel Electric,
17:12
Speaker 4: call Current dot com the Superheroes a Current Electric for
17:14

Speaker 1: the Brewers a radio play by play voice Josh Mauer
18:48
Speaker 1: about the Yucre documentary coming out later this summer. Now,
18:51
Speaker 1: I missed it at the Milwaukee Film Festival. I missed
18:53
Speaker 1: the debut. I had a lot of fomo about that.
18:56
Speaker 1: Did not go. Saw the Pat McCurdy documentary, which was
18:58
Speaker 1: really good, pretty danod looking forward to seeing the Yucker documentary.
19:01
Speaker 1: It's probably one of those like the Just a Bit
19:02
Speaker 1: Outside the eighty two Brewers doc that I've seen three
19:05
Speaker 1: or four times, probably see it multiple times because yes,
19:09
Speaker 1: has it's Yuke, but our Hunter Bombguart caught up with
19:13
Speaker 1: Josh Mauer Take it away, Hunter.
19:16
Speaker 7: Thanks guys and Josh. I really appreciate you doing this
19:19
Speaker 7: and excited to talk about this documentary film that I
19:22
Speaker 7: know a lot of people are really looking forward to seeing.
19:24
Speaker 1: If they haven't already.
19:27
Speaker 7: First, I want to ask you, you know, for those
19:30
Speaker 7: obviously who do not know, the Yuke documentary coming out
19:33
Speaker 7: in Marcus theaters throughout Wisconsin coming up Friday, July twenty fourth.
19:37
Speaker 7: That is the date, so you can watch for details
19:40
Speaker 7: on timing and which theaters it'll be released in the
19:42
Speaker 7: coming weeks. It's described as a hilarious and intimate feature
19:46
Speaker 7: link documentary about Bob Yuker and Josh. You've seen obviously,
19:51
Speaker 7: you've seen the documentary.
19:53
Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a moment.
19:54
Speaker 7: But you obviously had a the privilege of working with
19:56
Speaker 7: Bob Yuker for a little while and being around him
20:00
Speaker 7: towards the end of his tenure in the booth. Give
20:04
Speaker 7: us a little insight as to what that was like
20:06
Speaker 7: for you, and maybe even the time you met him
20:09
Speaker 7: or whatever story may come to mind with that. I'm
20:12
Speaker 7: sure a lot do. But what was that experience like
20:14
Speaker 7: for you?
20:16
Speaker 6: It was one of the greatest experiences that I've ever had,
20:19
Speaker 6: and I'm not exaggerating. First of all, thank you for
20:22
Speaker 6: having me Hunter to talk about this film. I'm so
20:26
Speaker 6: fortunate because for someone who worked in the minor leagues
20:30
Speaker 6: for almost two decades, which was what I did.
20:33
Speaker 2: Before I came to Milwaukee.
20:35
Speaker 6: You know, I had thought that maybe my career was
20:38
Speaker 6: never even going to get up to the major league level.
20:40
Speaker 6: It I'd never be a major league broadcaster full time.
20:44
Speaker 6: And then all of a sudden, I was getting considered
20:46
Speaker 6: to be hired by the Brewers, and lo and behold,
20:50
Speaker 6: the last step of that hiring process was to meet
20:53
Speaker 6: Bob Uker. And so on a chilly morning, I was
20:57
Speaker 6: flown out to Milwaukee and I was having breakfast with
21:01
Speaker 6: this icon who I had known my whole life from
21:05
Speaker 6: Major League and mister Belvedere, and hardly as an outsider
21:09
Speaker 6: to the area, even really realized that he was the
21:13
Speaker 6: fifty plus year voice of the Milwaukee Verse. But here
21:16
Speaker 6: I was sitting face to face to him, and for
21:19
Speaker 6: almost two hours listening to him tell stories that made
21:24
Speaker 6: your insides want to bursts because you're laughing so hard.
21:28
Speaker 6: And I thought, well, if I don't get hired, at
21:30
Speaker 6: least I had this.
21:31
Speaker 2: At least I had these two hours with Bob.
21:34
Speaker 6: And I did get hired, as you know, and for
21:37
Speaker 6: three years I got to share a booth with Bob
21:41
Speaker 6: and get to get to know him as a person
21:44
Speaker 6: and listen to him tell his stories like nobody else could.
21:48
Speaker 6: And it was three years that I'll cherish for the rest.
21:50
Speaker 2: Of my life. It was one of the most amazing experiences.
21:53
Speaker 6: As I said, that any broadcast or really anybody in
21:57
Speaker 6: any facet of life could ask for it to be around.
21:59
Speaker 1: Bob, no doubt about it.
22:01
Speaker 7: And after seeing the documentary your review and I just
22:05
Speaker 7: want to read this and kind of get into it.
22:07
Speaker 7: Your review after seeing this Yuke doc was this fantastic
22:11
Speaker 7: Retrospectives gives an intimate view inside the booth of Bob
22:14
Speaker 7: Bukers Brewer's radio network that longtime listeners will cherish. Fans
22:18
Speaker 7: of bombs will not just laugh and cry, but also
22:20
Speaker 7: learn so much of the inner workings of how he
22:22
Speaker 7: turned the game broadcasts into must listen, must listen events
22:26
Speaker 7: for decades. And that's exactly what it was in Wisconsin
22:30
Speaker 7: for so many decades. You talked to Brewers fans everywhere
22:33
Speaker 7: and they'll agree, what kind of made you have that
22:36
Speaker 7: takeaway after watching this Yuke documentary, Well, it is interesting.
22:41
Speaker 2: I think that.
22:43
Speaker 6: Even surprised me a little bit, having seen the great
22:47
Speaker 6: crew working on this documentary.
22:49
Speaker 2: Really from the outset.
22:52
Speaker 6: I thought that the idea was just here's Bob Buker's
22:56
Speaker 6: life as a retrospective, and this is what this documentary
22:59
Speaker 6: is going to be, from when he was a young
23:01
Speaker 6: kid in Milwaukee until an old man working as a broadcaster.
23:07
Speaker 6: But what the documentary really does do is focus a
23:12
Speaker 6: lot on the inner workings of that booth, which was
23:16
Speaker 6: his most cherished part of his life was the Brewers
23:22
Speaker 6: Radio Network and how it worked, how he worked within it,
23:26
Speaker 6: and especially towards the end, how things played out as
23:29
Speaker 6: Bob ended up getting sick. So I think what you're
23:33
Speaker 6: going to really be amazed about is how much inside
23:37
Speaker 6: access that the filmmakers were given and how much they're
23:41
Speaker 6: able to share of the end of Bob's tenure in
23:44
Speaker 6: the booth as that played itself out. You kind of
23:48
Speaker 6: watch it from a behind the scenes look that doesn't
23:52
Speaker 6: exist anywhere else. It's really fascinating, and having been part
23:56
Speaker 6: of that, it was emotional for me. But I just
24:01
Speaker 6: looked back at it and marvel at what Bob was
24:04
Speaker 6: able to do for the last couple of years as
24:06
Speaker 6: he was battling an illness that was terminal. And these
24:11
Speaker 6: filmmakers Michael and Steve, Michael Vohman, Steve Fark and their
24:16
Speaker 6: entire team just do an unbelievable job of giving you
24:20
Speaker 6: that access and making you feel like you were a
24:22
Speaker 6: fly on the wall there for the end of Bob's
24:24
Speaker 6: broadcasting career.
24:26
Speaker 7: Yeah, the September Club began documenting his life during spring
24:29
Speaker 7: training of twenty twenty three. So for nearly two years,
24:32
Speaker 7: Bomb fully welcomed the film cruise into his life and
24:35
Speaker 7: allowing them to film extensively with him, with his colleagues
24:38
Speaker 7: and with his family in Milwaukee, Arizona, and throughout the country.
24:41
Speaker 7: And what was that like for you? I mean, were
24:44
Speaker 7: you kind of surprised with how much maybe they were
24:47
Speaker 7: there and given access to and just thought, Okay, this
24:50
Speaker 7: might be something pretty special. Once it all comes to light.
24:55
Speaker 2: We were just kind of amazed.
24:57
Speaker 6: Yeah, that Bob had agreed to this, because Bob could
25:00
Speaker 6: be a pretty private person and it came to that stuff.
25:03
Speaker 6: But a great thing was these filmmakers again, Steve Farr
25:08
Speaker 6: and Michael Vohman, who are the co producers, their co directors,
25:11
Speaker 6: I should say, they had earned Bob's trust before he
25:15
Speaker 6: green lit the project. And so once Bob said okay,
25:18
Speaker 6: you guys are are in, then they were really in
25:22
Speaker 6: and there.
25:23
Speaker 2: Was nothing that was off limits.
25:25
Speaker 6: So yeah, for those couple of seasons, we saw so
25:28
Speaker 6: many of those guys in and around our broadcast booth,
25:32
Speaker 6: just kind of being flies on the wall, and they
25:35
Speaker 6: were so good about not interfering with anything that was
25:40
Speaker 6: going on otherwise within or without the broadcast.
25:44
Speaker 2: And so we got to know them. They kind of
25:47
Speaker 2: became part of the fabric of the booth for those.
25:49
Speaker 6: Twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four seasons and that
25:52
Speaker 6: was kind of fun to be around. And they have
25:55
Speaker 6: have the cameras and the lights and the microphones as
25:58
Speaker 6: part of our presence when we did these home broadcasts
26:01
Speaker 6: when Bob was around for those last couple of years.
26:04
Speaker 7: Josh Mauer joining us here on the huddle, Hunter Bombguart
26:07
Speaker 7: with you Brewers radio play by play voice. So it
26:11
Speaker 7: sounds like this, and you know, you have a unique
26:13
Speaker 7: perspective on this, you know, having seen and met and
26:16
Speaker 7: worked with Bob in your career and then seeing this film,
26:21
Speaker 7: it sounds like this captures. This film captures who Bob
26:24
Speaker 7: Buker was and really gives a great glimpse as to
26:29
Speaker 7: what his life was like, especially in the broadcast booth.
26:32
Speaker 6: It does, it does, it's going to paint the entire picture,
26:35
Speaker 6: but it does focus very specifically on the booth and
26:39
Speaker 6: what he did for the Brewers Radio network. And as
26:42
Speaker 6: I said earlier, Hunter, I truly believe that of everything
26:46
Speaker 6: he accomplished, and there are so many things that he did,
26:50
Speaker 6: one thing that he treasured most was that broadcast entity
26:53
Speaker 6: was the Brewers radio broadcasts that he did for over
26:57
Speaker 6: fifty years and did as well as any major league
27:00
Speaker 6: broadcaster has ever done.
27:01
Speaker 2: It.
27:03
Speaker 6: That was I think if you asked him what do
27:06
Speaker 6: I cherish as my most prized accomplishment in my career,
27:12
Speaker 6: it would say it was what I did on the
27:14
Speaker 6: radio for the Brewers, and that I think would surprise
27:17
Speaker 6: some people, but if you knew the man, it wouldn't
27:21
Speaker 6: at all, because baseball was always the number one love,
27:24
Speaker 6: and specifically for those five plus decades, it was the
27:27
Speaker 6: radio broadcast.
27:28
Speaker 2: For Brewers that meant the most to Bob.
27:32
Speaker 6: So it does focus very heavily on that the Yuke documentary,
27:36
Speaker 6: but of course you're going to see all the great
27:39
Speaker 6: clips from the Belvedere shows and the Miller Lite commercials,
27:44
Speaker 6: and of course Major League gets all in there, and
27:46
Speaker 6: there's some great anecdotes that you learn from those parts
27:48
Speaker 6: of his life as well.
27:50
Speaker 7: Yeah, and the great trailer is out giving you a
27:52
Speaker 7: glimpse into it again. The movie will open in Marcus
27:55
Speaker 7: theaters throughout Wisconsin Friday, July twenty fourth. Did anything surprise
27:59
Speaker 7: you in the day documentary? You know that that that
28:02
Speaker 7: you were like, oh that, either that you didn't know,
28:04
Speaker 7: or just surprise you that it was in it. Anything
28:06
Speaker 7: you know kind of surprise you while you were watching it.
28:09
Speaker 6: I think the thing that was new to me was
28:14
Speaker 6: so much of the historical footage and photographs that the
28:19
Speaker 6: filmmakers were able to dig up and involve in the movie.
28:23
Speaker 6: As they told Bob's life story. You're really able to
28:26
Speaker 6: see it from a young age, and you see a
28:29
Speaker 6: man that we got to know his face and his
28:32
Speaker 6: voice later on in life, but you're going to see
28:35
Speaker 6: it from the very beginning in this in this documentary.
28:39
Speaker 6: So that was really kind of cool to me to
28:41
Speaker 6: see a much much different younger Bob Bucher from the
28:46
Speaker 6: beginning back in his high school days and even younger
28:51
Speaker 6: than that, and when he went into the army before
28:53
Speaker 6: he ever signed a professional baseball contract. There are some great,
28:58
Speaker 6: great gems that they kind of they were able to
29:03
Speaker 6: dig it up and include it in here. And and
29:05
Speaker 6: I think people that thought that they knew everything about Bob,
29:08
Speaker 6: they're going to be like, wow, Okay, I haven't seen
29:10
Speaker 6: that one before.
29:12
Speaker 7: Yeah, I cannot wait. I know a lot of people
29:14
Speaker 7: are super excited. Again, circle your calendars, make a note,
29:17
Speaker 7: set a reminder, whatever you have to do. Friday, July
29:20
Speaker 7: twenty fourth is when it's going to open. And Josh
29:23
Speaker 7: has seen it and a few others have and it's rave.
29:26
Speaker 7: Reviews have come back. Josh, I really appreciate the time
29:29
Speaker 7: this morning talking about the Yuke documentary and boys, it's
29:34
Speaker 7: super special that they put this together.
29:36
Speaker 2: It really is.
29:37
Speaker 6: And Hunter, thank you so much for letting me come
29:39
Speaker 6: on and talk about it. We can't wait for everybody
29:42
Speaker 6: across the state to be able to finally see this
29:44
Speaker 6: in July.
29:45
Speaker 7: Absolutely he is Josh Mauer Radio play by play voice
29:48
Speaker 7: of the Milwaukee Brewers.
29:50

30:47
Speaker 4: big part of it. Like I'm I'm very excited to

31:03
Speaker 4: No, but I mean, like the the other thing is
31:05
Speaker 4: like that josh To alluded to there. I think one
31:08
Speaker 4: of the interesting things is that he agreed to do
31:10
Speaker 4: it right like as such a private person. I'm glad
31:14
Speaker 4: that he agreed to at the towards the end of
31:17
Speaker 4: his broadcasting line and at the end of his life
31:20
Speaker 4: allow that story to be told because it's one that
31:22
Speaker 4: should be honored for generation.
31:25
Speaker 5: And sacrificing a little bit of his privacy for those
31:27
Speaker 5: moments of posterity for all of us to enjoy a
31:30
Speaker 5: more revealing look at him in his life and have
31:32
Speaker 5: it preserved now for history. So yeah, obviously very excited
31:36
Speaker 5: to see this thing, and I'm sure it's going to
31:38
Speaker 5: be you know, as much as you we've known, and
31:41

33:15
Speaker 1: what do you got for waken and Bacon? Well, we
33:17
Speaker 1: got a couple of interesting ones.
33:18
Speaker 3: First.
33:19
Speaker 4: I mean, this might not be a great Waken Bake story,
33:22
Speaker 4: but they might have been at the moment. Three suspects
33:24
Speaker 4: reported in a twenty twenty four burglary I have brought
33:27
Speaker 4: burglary of Bobby Portis's home in Milwaukee arrested in Argentina yesterday.
33:33
Speaker 4: As ABC News reported, the three citizens were wanted in
33:37
Speaker 4: the US on federal charges and investigation in connection to
33:40
Speaker 4: Burglary's targeting Portis's home, as well as second time that
33:44
Speaker 4: we've mentioned Travis Kelcey on the show and Patrick Mahomes,
33:46
Speaker 4: two of those suspects, are among five people arrested in
33:49
Speaker 4: connection with a robbery at a home in argent of
33:52
Speaker 4: ourn Argentinian tennis player. That crime occurred earlier this month.
33:56
Speaker 4: So they just tried one too many times. One too
33:58
Speaker 4: many times and finally got nip. But I think my
34:00
Speaker 4: favorite Waken Bake story came from actually Arman Sarion let
34:04
Speaker 4: across my wire of Tom Dundon, who has now found
34:07
Speaker 4: himself twice into the wake and bake story, the new
34:09
Speaker 4: owner of the Portland Trailblazers who laid off seventy Portland
34:14
Speaker 4: Trailblazers employees over the last couple of weeks in what
34:18
Speaker 4: he said was a little bit of a wellness time.
34:20
Speaker 3: Recalibration and HM trimming the fat.
34:24
Speaker 4: People are happy, the quote drew in response to why
34:27
Speaker 4: did you fire or lay off those employees and how
34:30
Speaker 4: is it going to make your workplace better?
34:33
Speaker 2: Quote?
34:34
Speaker 4: People are happier when they're busy and productive. Well, and
34:39
Speaker 4: more people just creates more problems. Usually, I think Portland
34:42
Speaker 4: has had too many people. The business I'm going to
34:44
Speaker 4: run like you run every other business. Now people are
34:48
Speaker 4: gonna look at it say, how dare he? This is ridiculous.
34:51
Speaker 4: It is not going to do anything positive. Tom Dundon
34:55
Speaker 4: might know a little bit more about running a successful
34:57
Speaker 4: sports organization than you would think, as he owns the
35:00
Speaker 4: Carolina Hurricanes. We're in the Eastern Conference Final. Once again success.
35:04
Speaker 2: They were one of the.
35:04
Speaker 4: Best teams over the last five years in hockey. Different sport. True, However,
35:11
Speaker 4: you said it earlier when we started. We're running a
35:14
Speaker 4: business here, We're running a business. If I'm looking around
35:16
Speaker 4: saying how many of these people are not doing enough?
35:18
Speaker 4: Tom Dundon said, let's get let's work harder, not smarter,
35:23
Speaker 4: and less people. So all of you goodbye. Well, you're
35:27
Speaker 4: gonna be way happier. You're gonna be way happier working
35:30
Speaker 4: a little bit more well.
35:30
Speaker 5: And the ones that aren't gonna be working anymore, I
35:32
Speaker 5: don't think they're gonna be happy. But I will say this,
35:34
Speaker 5: you're right about what you're saying about the business. Whoever,
35:37
Speaker 5: Hockey is different than the NBA. We've noted that before
35:40
Speaker 5: about Tom Dundant, and I would say, the goal it's
35:43
Speaker 5: not like any other business really because running a professional
35:45
Speaker 5: sports team the goal.
35:47
Speaker 3: People look at the goal differently.
35:49
Speaker 5: Yes, the goal is to make money, but the goals
35:50
Speaker 5: to win on the court, of the field, of the
35:52
Speaker 5: rink and not all of that is the same type
35:55
Speaker 5: of winning you would do in a business.
35:56
Speaker 3: Now, usually you'll make money anyway in.
35:58
Speaker 5: A pro sports franchise, but the Hurricanes are winning, and
36:02
Speaker 5: whether he should get credit for it, Well, he will
36:03
Speaker 5: owners get credit, so he's gonna get something.
36:05
Speaker 4: He deserves a decent amount of credit when you look
36:07
Speaker 4: at where the organization was before he bought it and
36:09
Speaker 4: where it is now.
36:11
Speaker 3: And I do understand.
36:12
Speaker 4: Yes, they're different sports and the athletes might be different,
36:15
Speaker 4: but the money making operation is rather similar. Forty one
36:19
Speaker 4: home games forty three home games when you include pre
36:22
Speaker 4: preseason into there, like that part of the process, the
36:26
Speaker 4: business side of it might be a lot more similar
36:28
Speaker 4: than you think.
36:29
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, we'll see how it works in Portland now,
36:31
Speaker 5: I mean, can he replicate that success?
36:34
Speaker 3: You know, it's it's.
36:36
Speaker 5: Not necessarily going to win him any votes in the public,
36:38
Speaker 5: but that's not necessarily his goal either, right, is to
36:41
Speaker 5: get people to think he's cool.
36:43
Speaker 3: You know, I don't think he's trying to be like
36:44
Speaker 3: his goal is to make money and win games.
36:46
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, no, it's it's a different It's like the
36:49
Speaker 5: different approach in Utah Grizzly Utah.
36:53
Speaker 1: Mammothat owner Ryan Smith.
36:55
Speaker 5: Ryan Smith who wants high five fans give out jerseys
36:58
Speaker 5: on one of you. We'll see what happen and there's
37:01
Speaker 5: two ways it's gonna cat and Tom is going for
37:03
Speaker 5: this one.
37:03
Speaker 3: He's getting all of it.
37:05
Speaker 4: So there, we're cutting this fat. We're trimming this fat.
37:08
Speaker 4: He went in like a weight loss program. Let's trim
37:11
Speaker 4: some of this bat down here on the sides.
37:13
Speaker 1: Wakem Bank. Brought to us by Happy Place HEMP dot Com,
37:16
Speaker 1: Happy Code Huddle twenty five minuts and free shipping. Yeah,
37:21
Speaker 1: gotta love that. He'll be way happy.
37:23
Speaker 4: Just work a little bit harder, add a couple more
37:25
Speaker 4: tasks on there. It'll be a lot better for you.
37:27
Speaker 1: A little more than about three hours and ten minutes
37:29
Speaker 1: from right now, Matt Leffleor steps to the microphone. I
37:33
Speaker 1: don't know if there will be a podium or not.
37:34
Speaker 1: He's gonna be doing it outside, not in the fancy
37:37
Speaker 1: new media setup, but you're gonna do it outside at
37:38
Speaker 1: the Hudson Center by nichkie Field there.
37:41
Speaker 4: I wondered if for then Ota I kind of wondered
37:44
Speaker 4: after yesterday's situation and maybe they would have moved it
37:47
Speaker 4: inside and thinking maybe there would be a few more people.
37:49
Speaker 4: But yeah, I expected to be out and it's gonna
37:50
Speaker 4: be uh quick.
37:52
Speaker 1: Now again, if not for the Josh jacobs legal situation.
37:56
Speaker 1: The lead questions would have been or the big associates
37:59
Speaker 1: was Wisconsin's injury report, Tucker Craft, Devonte Wyatt, others who
38:04
Speaker 1: were Micah Parsons. What's the status of those guys that
38:07
Speaker 1: are coming back from injury? How do you treat it
38:09
Speaker 1: during OTAs and all that. We'll get some of that,
38:12
Speaker 1: but the first questions are obviously going to be about
38:15
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs. Yeah, he'll dismiss them in ten no comments
38:19
Speaker 1: or I already made a comment there. I'll pointed towards
38:21
Speaker 1: our our team comment. I'll pour it towards the comment
38:23
Speaker 1: that our organization put out because there's not much that
38:25
Speaker 1: he can comment on Otherwise, I mean, can a coach
38:29
Speaker 1: even say he's disappointed. I'm disappointed that this is the story.
38:35
Speaker 1: And I know Josh like and I a Lockerham. He's great.
38:37
Speaker 1: You know, he's been an exemplary teammate, and I.
38:40
Speaker 3: I think that back end part he probably will try to.
38:43
Speaker 1: Slide in there any support that you show because if
38:45
Speaker 1: it is turns out bad, whoops.
38:48
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Drew, if anything, it'll be maybe he
38:51
Speaker 4: gives the cautionary of we we do need to reserve
38:55
Speaker 4: full judgment until the courts play out their process, like
38:58
Speaker 4: they'll be part of that.
38:59
Speaker 1: We don't have the information, but I've not talked to Josh.
39:02
Speaker 1: He can say that because I haven't. I haven't talked
39:04
Speaker 1: to Josh. You're talking to his lawyers.
39:06
Speaker 4: The easiest, the easiest thing in all of this is
39:08
Speaker 4: to tell the truth right and like as tough as
39:10
Speaker 4: it sounds, and I know a lot of people don't
39:12
Speaker 4: want to hear the truth, is exactly the statement.
39:15
Speaker 3: They are aware of the situation. All of us are.
39:17
Speaker 1: All of us are.
39:18
Speaker 4: They can only allow the legal proceedings to play out
39:21
Speaker 4: on all different fronts, whether it's if you're gonna go
39:23
Speaker 4: and sign Naji Harris to be an additional guy into
39:26
Speaker 4: the backfield, or if you know, hey, maybe Josh Sweat
39:29
Speaker 4: wants out of Arizona and you're like, wait, eighteen million there,
39:32
Speaker 4: eleven million in cap savings are doing those mathematics. But again,
39:36
Speaker 4: they can't do that right now because they don't know
39:37
Speaker 4: the fun They don't know.
39:38
Speaker 1: The full ram. Otherwise it would be injury talk with
39:41
Speaker 1: Orthpedic Wisconsin or the Wisconsin dot Com Wisconsin World Class
39:45
Speaker 1: Care right here at home, visit Ortho Wisconsin DOT is
39:50
Speaker 1: a difference best in the area. All right, So tomorrow,
39:54
Speaker 1: let's see no NBA tonight they're off. Nope, Brewers early,
39:59
Speaker 1: travel the play early, and then the Brewers are heading
40:02
Speaker 1: into an off day. We're gonna have a pretty wide
40:04
Speaker 1: open say tomorrow talking about Packers and whatever comes from
40:08
Speaker 1: OTA's and Matt Michlor's press conference.
40:10
Speaker 4: Give us something, brother, give us something at the press conference.
40:13
Speaker 4: We can't take ten straight and no comments. Let's get
40:15
Speaker 4: some real juicy stuff on Tucker Craft. Hey, maybe Brandon
40:18
Speaker 4: se say he calls out to win Defensive Rookie of
40:20
