Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: As part of our continuing in-depth college football coverage, it's
- 0:04Speaker 1: time for our weekly visit with college football analyst and
- 0:07Speaker 1: former head coach Rick Neuheisel. Brought to you by Taco
- 0:11Speaker 1: Time on your home for college football Saturdays.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
- 0:19Speaker 3: Ah, yes, every Tuesday, 9 o'clock, we talk some college
- 0:22Speaker 3: football with, I mean, probably the best in the business,
- 0:26Speaker 3: Rick Neuheisel, former UW head football coach and now analyst
- 0:30Speaker 3: at CBS Sports, is with us as he is every Tuesday,
- 0:34Speaker 3: thanks to Taco Time.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Good morning, Coach.
- 0:37Speaker 4: How are you, Chuck? Everything good?
- 0:39Speaker 2: Everything's great. Yeah, everything's great.
- 0:40Speaker 3: I mean, we're a lot of Mariner talk today, people
- 0:43Speaker 3: losing their minds. So, yeah, we're kind of down that
- 0:47Speaker 3: rabbit trail.
- 0:49Speaker 5: Yeah, it was such a great year the previous year.
- 0:55Speaker 5: It's a little bit of a hangover, but they'll get
- 0:57Speaker 5: it fixed. They'll get it back going in the right direction,
- 1:00Speaker 5: and hopefully that'll be the case with the Huskies as
- 1:02Speaker 5: soon as this weekend as well.
- 1:04Speaker 3: Yeah, well, let's go ahead and start there then with
- 1:08Speaker 3: the Washington Huskies, who obviously there is a lot of
- 1:12Speaker 3: panic here in the streets of Seattle over whether or
- 1:16Speaker 3: not this thing's going to come together this season.
- 1:19Speaker 2: It's not looking good.
- 1:20Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, you're 3-1 at this point, but a
- 1:24Speaker 3: lot of those fears heading into that Minnesota game seem
- 1:27Speaker 3: like they were realized. Coach, what did you make of it?
- 1:31Speaker 5: Well, I underestimated the Golden Gophers, having watched them play
- 1:35Speaker 5: against Mississippi State at home. They looked a little bit slow,
- 1:41Speaker 5: but maybe that's just an indictment, not so much on
- 1:44Speaker 5: their defense, but an absolute exclamation point on what Mississippi
- 1:49Speaker 5: State has going with Kamario Taylor, their quarterback. They play
- 1:53Speaker 5: Alabama this week in what will be a great game
- 1:57Speaker 5: with two really fine young quarterbacks going head-to-head. But Washington
- 2:03Speaker 5: can't run the ball. Washington, 40 yards rushing, That's not
- 2:07Speaker 5: going to get it done. You can't take care of
- 2:10Speaker 5: the ball.
- 2:10Speaker 4: You put your.
- 2:11Speaker 5: Defense out on the field. They had to be on
- 2:13Speaker 5: the field for 36 minutes of the game. That's a
- 2:17Speaker 5: bad recipe. So Jets got to figure out how to
- 2:20Speaker 5: cobble together a running game. it puts me in mind
- 2:24Speaker 5: of where I was years and years ago when we
- 2:27Speaker 5: figured out we needed to use Marcus and put some
- 2:30Speaker 5: beer in to get our running game going.
- 2:32Speaker 4: And it turned out to be a good decision. We'll
- 2:35Speaker 4: see if Jed can find something similar.
- 2:37Speaker 3: Did you have the experience of Four games in with
- 2:42Speaker 3: a team you thought was pretty good, and yet you
- 2:45Speaker 3: hadn't seen any really examples of how good you thought
- 2:50Speaker 3: they were going to be and still figured out a
- 2:52Speaker 3: way to turn it around. I mean, can four games in,
- 2:55Speaker 3: does that identify you and the team you're going to
- 2:59Speaker 3: be this entire season? Or did you find in your
- 3:02Speaker 3: experience that four games is just getting started? And what
- 3:07Speaker 3: did you have to find in order to kick it
- 3:09Speaker 3: into the right gear?
- 3:12Speaker 5: Well, I go back to that season where we, you know,
- 3:16Speaker 5: the first year I got there, where we realized that
- 3:19Speaker 5: our Colorado offense wasn't going to work. Now, remember, Jed
- 3:23Speaker 5: has got himself a fantastic quarterback. He's got himself, a
- 3:28Speaker 5: year ago, had a first-round pick, and I don't know
- 3:30Speaker 5: if you've seen Mr. Boston playing for Cleveland, but he's
- 3:33Speaker 5: pretty dang good, right? So you've had some really, really
- 3:37Speaker 5: good players, and Jonah Coleman is doing some great things
- 3:41Speaker 5: at the next level. So you've had some really good players.
- 3:45Speaker 5: Those guys are gone. And the one thing about... This
- 3:49Speaker 5: young quarterback, DeMond Williams, he's 5'9. He's Bryce Young, right?
- 3:57Speaker 5: That means you can't just drop him back at seven
- 4:00Speaker 5: yards deep and think that he can see everything. He
- 4:03Speaker 5: can see out to the sidelines, which you can throw
- 4:06Speaker 5: outs and stuff, but you're not getting big hits. But
- 4:09Speaker 5: what has to happen for him to get his sight
- 4:11Speaker 5: lines is he has to climb back up in the pocket,
- 4:14Speaker 5: which means, to me, you've got to cobble together a
- 4:17Speaker 5: running game that allows him to be part of it,
- 4:20Speaker 5: and you also have to move the launch point way
- 4:23Speaker 5: more than you currently are because he's not seeing where
- 4:26Speaker 5: he can get those throws off in time, and obviously
- 4:29Speaker 5: it's putting a lot of pressure on that offensive line.
- 4:31Speaker 3: They call letdown games. They usually apply that to a
- 4:35Speaker 3: team that's coming off a big win. Washington travels to L.A.
- 4:39Speaker 3: to take on the Trojans Saturday. Any chance that USC's
- 4:43Speaker 3: still reeling from that loss to Oregon over the weekend?
- 4:47Speaker 5: Well, I don't think there's any question that they're reeling.
- 4:50Speaker 5: And here's what's going to be interesting. You know, that
- 4:52Speaker 5: coliseum was packed for the Oregon game. Will they come
- 4:57Speaker 5: back again? Will they come back and fill it and
- 5:00Speaker 5: have the same energy? Because those players are going to
- 5:03Speaker 5: be aware of that. And if Washington can get off
- 5:07Speaker 5: to a fast start and you can hear a couple,
- 5:09Speaker 5: you know, catcalls from the fans and where there's some
- 5:14Speaker 5: dissatisfaction being voiced from the fans, then you can see
- 5:18Speaker 5: that team kind of splinter. So that, to me, is
- 5:21Speaker 5: why it's critical that Washington get off to a fast start.
- 5:25Speaker 3: I mean, there's no worse people than Oregon Ducks and
- 5:28Speaker 3: USC Trojans.
- 5:29Speaker 2: You and I both know that, Coach. I mean.
- 5:33Speaker 2: That goes without saying, I guess is my point.
- 5:39Speaker 4: Only within the confines of their stadium. They're fine people outside, yes.
- 5:44Speaker 2: But when Kraft's.
- 5:45Speaker 4: Wearing those colors, yeah, they become a handful.
- 5:50Speaker 3: But that show on Saturday, I mean, I give credit
- 5:54Speaker 3: to Oregon just to kind of get the forces together
- 5:58Speaker 3: after that controversial play and really hammer USC the rest
- 6:02Speaker 3: of the way.
- 6:03Speaker 2: I'm not sure I love the way, or I know
- 6:05Speaker 2: I don't.
- 6:05Speaker 3: I don't like the way either head coach handled that
- 6:09Speaker 3: hit on Dante Moore, the situation after the game was over.
- 6:13Speaker 3: I thought Lanning did a great job in-game handling it,
- 6:16Speaker 3: but I don't like the way he handled it after
- 6:18Speaker 3: the game. Man, to choose that moment to pat yourself
- 6:21Speaker 3: on the back seemed kind of, well.
- 6:24Speaker 2: narcissistic to me. But let's go with the play itself.
- 6:29Speaker 3: What was your reaction in the moment of that play
- 6:32Speaker 3: and then the response by Stevens to sort of celebrate
- 6:36Speaker 3: that play?
- 6:38Speaker 5: So that's the whole problem was the response. That play
- 6:44Speaker 5: unfortunately happens often because quarterbacks are late to go to
- 6:49Speaker 5: their slide and defenders, when getting ready to make a tackle,
- 6:55Speaker 5: often take their eyes off the tackle and just commit
- 6:58Speaker 5: their bodies. If you watch the slow motion of that,
- 7:02Speaker 5: the Trojan defender is looking away because Mother Nature tells
- 7:07Speaker 5: you to look away when you're getting ready to be
- 7:09Speaker 5: in an.
- 7:09Speaker 4: Accident, right?
- 7:11Speaker 5: You close your eyes. You look the other way. You're
- 7:14Speaker 5: protecting yourself. And so the collision, while looking terrible, was
- 7:20Speaker 5: a collision. Had the defender gotten up and looked to
- 7:25Speaker 5: see if Dante was okay and offered some measure of
- 7:29Speaker 5: assistance and looking concerned, we would not be having this conversation.
- 7:36Speaker 5: What ensued was a celebration, high fives from his teammates,
- 7:41Speaker 5: whether it be there or on the bench after he's
- 7:44Speaker 5: been disqualified. And it was going to be a galvanization
- 7:49Speaker 5: for the Ducks based on their fallen leader. But what
- 7:56Speaker 5: was ugly was the celebration of the big hit, Look
- 8:00Speaker 5: at Me.
- 8:01Speaker 4: And that's why the kids suspended.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Are you critical of Dan Lanning or of Lincoln Riley
- 8:09Speaker 3: for the way that they conducted themselves post-game?
- 8:15Speaker 5: I think Lincoln Riley, I think both could have been
- 8:19Speaker 5: more thoughtful in terms of the situation and not adding.
- 8:25Speaker 4: Fuel to the fire, if you will.
- 8:27Speaker 5: But I also understand the competitive, you know, feelings that
- 8:32Speaker 5: you have in those situations. And, you know, If I
- 8:37Speaker 5: told you I was never defensive as Lincoln Riley was defensive,
- 8:41Speaker 5: I'd be telling you a fib. And if I told
- 8:43Speaker 5: you I wasn't defiant as Dan Lanning was once or
- 8:47Speaker 5: twice in my career, I'd be lying to you too.
- 8:50Speaker 5: So I can't fault them entirely having been in that
- 8:54Speaker 5: situation and probably having made the same mistake. At my
- 8:57Speaker 5: current age, I can tell you I wouldn't have.
- 9:00Speaker 2: Right. Did Oregon get right with this game?
- 9:05Speaker 5: We're going to find out. A really good U.S. UCLA
- 9:09Speaker 5: team is coming to town next week.
- 9:11Speaker 4: Yeah. And we're going to find out.
- 9:14Speaker 5: This is Bob Chesney returning to the scene of the
- 9:17Speaker 5: crime where he took James Madison last year in the
- 9:21Speaker 5: college football playoff. But this time, maybe he's got some
- 9:24Speaker 5: better players. I think Oregon's a really good team. I'm
- 9:27Speaker 5: not sure their national championship is good.
- 9:30Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
- 9:32Speaker 3: I mean, what did UCLA find in Chesney? Because I
- 9:36Speaker 3: heard Paul Feinbaum, who I didn't even realize knew a
- 9:39Speaker 3: state that was north of Arkansas.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Or west of Texas.
- 9:47Speaker 3: He said that UCLA is the better program in Los
- 9:51Speaker 3: Angeles right now. And that would have happened in a
- 9:53Speaker 3: very close period of time because a year ago, we
- 9:56Speaker 3: weren't saying a lot of great things about UCLA at
- 9:58Speaker 3: this time.
- 10:00Speaker 5: Paul feinbaum looks for clicks he wants to say the
- 10:04Speaker 5: thing that will cause the most stir up uh and
- 10:08Speaker 5: he's a genius at taking nothing away from him uh
- 10:11Speaker 5: ucla is off to a fantastic start but you need
- 10:13Speaker 5: to look at their schedule It hasn't been daunting. And
- 10:17Speaker 5: that's not to knock what Bob Chesney has done. Both
- 10:21Speaker 5: he and Kirk Cignetti have taken programs, having left James
- 10:25Speaker 5: Madison and have made instant progress. instant success opportunities at
- 10:32Speaker 5: both those schools. Cignetti at Indiana with a national championship,
- 10:35Speaker 5: which is unheard of, and Cignetti with a 4-0 start,
- 10:38Speaker 5: which is the first guy to start his career at
- 10:41Speaker 5: UCLA 4-0 since Red Sanders, who coached in the 50s.
- 10:46Speaker 5: So here's the deal. Both of those guys were at
- 10:49Speaker 5: a school where the resources were better than anybody they played.
- 10:55Speaker 5: James Madison has a resource advantage in the Sun Belt
- 10:58Speaker 5: that's unlike most in conference play. Liberty might in Conference
- 11:03Speaker 5: USA more than everybody else, but certainly James Madison is in.
- 11:09Speaker 4: That situation.
- 11:11Speaker 5: Both those guys, in taking their new job, made sure
- 11:16Speaker 5: that they had resources. Cignetti at Indiana and certainly Chesney
- 11:22Speaker 5: at UCLA. So these guys are not playing with one
- 11:25Speaker 5: arm behind their back, as maybe a lot of their
- 11:28Speaker 5: predecessors did at these particular schools. So they're off to
- 11:31Speaker 5: great starts.
- 11:32Speaker 1: Yep.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Rick Neuheisel is with us.
- 11:34Speaker 3: Our college football insider joins us every Tuesday thanks to
- 11:37Speaker 3: Taco Time. Let's stay in Feinbaum country to talk about
- 11:40Speaker 3: a couple of these matchups that.
- 11:41Speaker 2: Are coming up this weekend.
- 11:44Speaker 5: No.
- 11:44Speaker 3: 8 Florida sent a message, did they not? And they'll
- 11:47Speaker 3: be at Missouri No.
- 11:49Speaker 2: 25 this weekend.
- 11:49Speaker 3: But the Gators look like the real deal. You want
- 11:51Speaker 3: to talk about hiring the right coach.
- 11:53Speaker 2: My goodness.
- 11:55Speaker 5: John Summerall has been outstanding. He won championship at Troy.
- 11:58Speaker 5: He won a championship at Tulane, got to the CFP,
- 12:02Speaker 5: and now he's at Florida and making an incredible opening statement. Look,
- 12:07Speaker 5: when Ole Miss went in there, they had to stop
- 12:10Speaker 5: the run. It was clear that Jaden Ball, the running
- 12:12Speaker 5: back for the Gators, was an eye-opening talent, and they
- 12:16Speaker 5: had to stop him, and the Gators ran for 300 yards.
- 12:21Speaker 5: That can't happen, which is why Pete Golding's questioning the manhood.
- 12:24Speaker 4: Of his defense right now.
- 12:27Speaker 5: If Florida can run the ball and be effective like that,
- 12:31Speaker 5: their coordinator, Buster Faulkner, who was at Georgia Tech last year,
- 12:35Speaker 5: can call plays with the best of them. But you've
- 12:39Speaker 5: got to put the game in Aaron Filo's hands if
- 12:41Speaker 5: you've got a chance to beat Florida, and that'll be
- 12:44Speaker 5: Eli Drinkwich's challenge when they get to Columbia, Missouri this week.
- 12:48Speaker 3: You have been whispering the name Camario Taylor from very
- 12:52Speaker 3: early in the season, and now the nation is well aware.
- 12:57Speaker 3: I even saw Danny Connell said he put together some rankings.
- 13:01Speaker 3: They're the second best team in college football, and a
- 13:04Speaker 3: lot of people are starting to come around to Neuheisel's
- 13:07Speaker 3: idea that Camario Taylor might be a Heisman candidate here
- 13:11Speaker 3: at Mississippi State. So can he prove it against Kalen
- 13:14Speaker 3: DeBoer in the Crimson Tide this Saturday?
- 13:17Speaker 5: Well, what's on display in Starkville, and it sounds like
- 13:21Speaker 5: it's going to rain cats and dogs in Starkville for
- 13:25Speaker 5: that game. I mean, I'm hearing like poor.
- 13:28Speaker 4: So we'll see.
- 13:30Speaker 5: Keelan Russell, the quarterback for Alabama, and this kid, Camario Taylor,
- 13:35Speaker 5: the quarterback for Mississippi State. Those are two of the
- 13:40Speaker 5: finest young quarterback talents I've seen in a long time,
- 13:43Speaker 5: and both are 19 years old. So, and both are 6-3, 6-4. So,
- 13:49Speaker 5: I mean, these are guys that look the part and
- 13:53Speaker 5: play the part. It should be a heck of a game.
- 13:56Speaker 5: Whether or not and weather withstanding, this is going to
- 14:00Speaker 5: be fascinating. I've got to lean Alabama just because I
- 14:03Speaker 5: think they're going to have more in the way of
- 14:06Speaker 5: talent across the board. But what an opportunity for the
- 14:10Speaker 5: fans in Stark, Vegas to enjoy something like this. And
- 14:15Speaker 5: for Jeff Levy, you just tip your hat. That's a
- 14:18Speaker 5: heck of a job putting this team together.
- 14:20Speaker 2: What kind of effect does rain have on cowbells?
- 14:24Speaker 4: Do you have any idea? You know what? We're going
- 14:29Speaker 4: to find out. We're going to find out.
- 14:30Speaker 5: But as the famous actor once said, I need more cowbells.
- 14:39Speaker 2: We're getting a lot. We're getting a lot. First, Bruce Dickinson.
- 14:44Speaker 2: And now Camario Taylor. Rick Neuheisel is with us.
- 14:46Speaker 3: Look, I believe you, and I can't wait to watch
- 14:49Speaker 3: him face Alabama this Saturday to get a real taste
- 14:52Speaker 3: of how good he is. But it's going to take
- 14:54Speaker 3: a lot for any player to convince me that Jeremiah
- 14:58Speaker 3: Smith is not the best player in college football. and
- 15:02Speaker 3: probably would be a wide receiver one right now in
- 15:04Speaker 3: the National Football League if rules allowed. I mean, he
- 15:07Speaker 3: put on a show last week. He looks unstoppable. Can
- 15:11Speaker 3: Iowa devise anything to slow that beast down this Saturday?
- 15:16Speaker 5: The answer, of course, is no. But have you ever
- 15:18Speaker 5: been to Iowa City? Have you ever been to Kinnick
- 15:21Speaker 5: Stadium and the pink locker room for the visitor, which
- 15:25Speaker 5: is designed to create a more docile environment for the team?
- 15:30Speaker 6: I'm not.
- 15:30Speaker 4: Kinnick Stadium.
- 15:32Speaker 5: Kinnick has a way of creating some interesting outcomes. And
- 15:38Speaker 5: Ohio State should win the game going away. But don't
- 15:41Speaker 5: be surprised if Kirk Ferentz and company, like they showed
- 15:45Speaker 5: in the big house last week, isn't hanging around in.
- 15:48Speaker 4: The fourth quarter.
- 15:50Speaker 3: I'll stay in the Big Ten for one more, and
- 15:53Speaker 3: that is Northwestern hosting Penn State.
- 15:57Speaker 2: Northwestern.
- 15:58Speaker 4: I'm going. I'm going to that game.
- 16:00Speaker 6: Oh, good.
- 16:01Speaker 5: It's Friday night, so I'm getting on the first thing
- 16:05Speaker 5: smoking on Saturday morning to get back to New York
- 16:07Speaker 5: for the show. But, yeah, my kid is coaching quarterbacks
- 16:11Speaker 5: at Northwestern. and Penn State coming off that loss to
- 16:15Speaker 5: Wisconsin comes in, and they open the new Ryan Field
- 16:19Speaker 5: this weekend. So it should be a cool environment on
- 16:22Speaker 5: Friday night.
- 16:23Speaker 3: Northwest had a real chance to beat Indiana. I mean,
- 16:26Speaker 3: they played really well Friday night, and I have– This
- 16:30Speaker 3: tells you about what kind of college football fan.
- 16:32Speaker 5: I am, I guess.
- 16:33Speaker 3: I've not been to Iowa, but I've been to Northwestern
- 16:35Speaker 3: to watch football games. But they put on quite a show,
- 16:39Speaker 3: and Penn State better be ready or Coach Campbell's season
- 16:43Speaker 3: is going to go south pretty fast.
- 16:46Speaker 5: It is going to be a great game to watch.
- 16:48Speaker 5: As you pointed out, Penn State took one on the chin.
- 16:51Speaker 5: Northwestern played Indiana tough. Chuck, they had them third and
- 16:55Speaker 5: 19 down two in the fourth quarter. And they got
- 16:58Speaker 5: a face mask penalty, which extended the Indiana drive. They'd
- 17:03Speaker 5: go down and score. Northwestern went down.
- 17:05Speaker 4: And scored again. But unfortunately, they couldn't get there. 29-23 final.
- 17:11Speaker 5: But Aiden Childs, the quarterback for Northwestern, played really well.
- 17:15Speaker 5: This home environment is going to be interesting, and Rocco
- 17:18Speaker 5: Beckton Company better be ready. It should be a fun
- 17:21Speaker 5: Friday night.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Oh, that Neuheisel magic. It works every single time. Wherever
- 17:25Speaker 3: you sprinkle Neuheisel dust, things get better.
- 17:27Speaker 4: Penn State's had enough of Neuheisel dust. I promise you.
- 17:33Speaker 3: All right. So if you're going to be in Evanston,
- 17:36Speaker 3: Illinois on Friday night, what about Saturday?
- 17:39Speaker 2: I assume in studio. What does CBS have for us?
- 17:43Speaker 4: It's Iowa hosting Ohio State.
- 17:46Speaker 5: We get that Jeremiah Smith guy, who, as you point out,
- 17:50Speaker 5: has been phenomenal. And Julian's saying right there, but if
- 17:55Speaker 5: Iowa can kind of play a field position game, shorten
- 17:58Speaker 5: the game, as I said, spooky things happen in Kinnick.
- 18:02Speaker 3: Would you make it your taco time pick of the week, though?
- 18:05Speaker 3: That's the million-dollar question.
- 18:07Speaker 4: No, I won't.
- 18:09Speaker 5: You know where I'm going? Taco time, pick of the week.
- 18:11Speaker 5: We're going back to Knoxville. Auburn comes to town. And
- 18:17Speaker 5: Alex Golish, the head coach of Auburn, who got a
- 18:21Speaker 5: nice win this last week over Vandy, and they lost
- 18:29Speaker 5: a very close game to Florida, but that doesn't look
- 18:32Speaker 5: like such a bad loss anymore. Golish was the offensive
- 18:36Speaker 5: coordinator when Hendon Hooker was playing quarterback for Tennessee. So
- 18:41Speaker 5: Golish is going to know Josh Heupel's way of doing
- 18:45Speaker 5: things intimately well. They're getting seven points. I'm going to take.
- 18:51Speaker 4: Auburn on the road. I'll take the points. The volunteers
- 18:53Speaker 4: might get the win, but I think War Eagle keeps
- 18:56Speaker 4: it close. All right.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Well, enjoy your time in Chicago. Enjoy the drive there
- 19:02Speaker 3: along the lake. And enjoy your weekend. We'll talk to
- 19:06Speaker 3: you again on Tuesday.
- 19:08Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 19:09Speaker 5: If you see anybody running on the field on Friday night,
- 19:12Speaker 5: pray that it's not me.
- 19:16Speaker 2: And yet hope that it's you at the same time.
- 19:19Speaker 4: All right.
- 19:20Speaker 2: We'll talk to you next week.
- 19:21Speaker 3: Rick Neuheisel joining us right here on Chuck in the Mornings,
- 19:24Speaker 3: a segment brought to you by Taco Time. Oh, Taco Time,
- 19:28Speaker 3: your best friend in moments of need. You might as
- 19:31Speaker 3: well confront it. Yeah, when you're sitting there hungry, you
- 19:34Speaker 3: just get that Taco Time craving. You roll in there,
- 19:37Speaker 3: you get some of those crisp chicken burritos, and that's satisfaction.
- 19:42Speaker 3: That's what that's called. So we appreciate Coach Neuheisel. We
- 19:45Speaker 3: appreciate Taco Time. Coming up next, we're going to preview
- 19:49Speaker 3: something that you don't don't even want to think about.
- 19:51Speaker 3: Sports Radio 93.3 KJRFM. I know this is going to
- 19:59Speaker 3: hurt a little bit, but.
- 20:00Speaker 2: It's an annual tradition.
- 20:02Speaker 3: Whether we have a Seattle team involved or not in
- 20:04Speaker 3: the tournament, it is time for our MLB Playoff Preview Draft. Yeah,
- 20:11Speaker 3: used to call it the Green Jacket Draft. What a
- 20:13Speaker 3: mistake that was way back when Chris Kidd used to
- 20:15Speaker 3: work here. And now that he's back with us. Uh,
- 20:18Speaker 3: so much has changed. Uh, it's now called the showdown draft.
- 20:21Speaker 3: We don't play for a green jacket. We play for
- 20:23Speaker 3: that big giant trophy in the corner. And we also
- 20:26Speaker 3: are including a listener team, every draft that we do
- 20:30Speaker 3: this year.
- 20:31Speaker 2: And we have our listener on the line. His name
- 20:33Speaker 2: is David.
- 20:34Speaker 3: I'm going to give some instructions before we start drafting
- 20:36Speaker 3: and we got to be fast today. We are previewing
- 20:39Speaker 3: the Major League Baseball playoffs, which start today at 11 o'clock.
- 20:43Speaker 3: We are drafting players and we are counting their total bases.
- 20:48Speaker 3: So most collective total bases from the foursome that you
- 20:51Speaker 3: draft will win the showdown trophy and this round of
- 20:56Speaker 3: the showdown here on Chuck in the Mornings.
- 21:00Speaker 2: I think that's it.
- 21:01Speaker 7: Yeah, it includes walks. Sometimes total bases wouldn't include walks.
- 21:04Speaker 7: I think we decided that it does include walks. Yes,
- 21:06Speaker 7: it does include walks.
- 21:08Speaker 2: All right, I think it feels like I should be
- 21:11Speaker 2: saying something else.
- 21:11Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, just like you have to think about
- 21:13Speaker 7: how long they're going to be in the tournament, too.
- 21:15Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it. That's what I was going to say.
- 21:16Speaker 3: Yeah, so, yeah, got to figure out how long they're
- 21:19Speaker 3: going to be in the tournament and who are the
- 21:20Speaker 3: guys that are going to be hot. It's frankly the
- 21:22Speaker 3: most difficult one to do of the entire calendar year.
- 21:25Speaker 3: It is pretty much just throwing darts. um but uh
- 21:27Speaker 3: we'll do it anyway do we have an order that
- 21:30Speaker 3: we're drafting chris yes david will be first i'll be
- 21:33Speaker 3: second anderson is third and chuck is fourth.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Oh thanks for coming back to the station oh.
- 21:38Speaker 8: You know i didn't know i would get second i'm
- 21:40Speaker 8: not gonna lie but david's first so hey oh okay oh.
- 21:42Speaker 2: Well nothing like fourth for the you know the guy
- 21:45Speaker 2: that got you back here thank you all right.
- 21:51Speaker 3: Let's start with david uh who joins us here on the.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Uh program hi david Hey, how we doing? Are you
- 21:58Speaker 2: ready to draft?
- 22:00Speaker 1: Yes, sir.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Are you a master of baseball?
- 22:04Speaker 6: I wish I could say that, but, you know.
- 22:06Speaker 2: But you're going to hold your own.
- 22:07Speaker 4: I play a lot.
- 22:08Speaker 2: Okay. You're going to hold your own. Okay.
- 22:11Speaker 6: All right.
- 22:11Speaker 2: Well, let's get it going. You have the first pick.
- 22:13Speaker 3: What's the first player that is coming off the board
- 22:16Speaker 3: in our Major League Baseball playoff preview draft?
- 22:20Speaker 6: Well, I feel bad, but I got to. I got
- 22:22Speaker 6: to take Shohei.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Taking Shohei. Why do you feel bad about that?
- 22:25Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 22:28Speaker 6: Just feels too obvious.
- 22:30Speaker 2: He has been hurt.
- 22:31Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:32Speaker 2: He's not 100% healthy. And he's not playing in the
- 22:34Speaker 2: first round. He's not playing in the first round. He
- 22:38Speaker 2: is a Dodger, though. Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay,
- 22:41Speaker 2: I thought maybe it was an Aaron Judge story that
- 22:43Speaker 2: I didn't hear about. Yeah, and he is a Dodger.
- 22:46Speaker 3: Yes. And they are the runaway favorites this year, and
- 22:51Speaker 3: he's the best player on the team. So even though
- 22:54Speaker 3: you hate to say it, it's certainly a very good
- 22:57Speaker 3: pick from David that gets us started.
- 22:59Speaker 2: All right, Chris, you are up next. This is probably
- 23:01Speaker 2: going to piss people off, but I want to win,
- 23:03Speaker 2: so we're going to go for it. That should be
- 23:05Speaker 2: your objective. I'll take Jordan.
- 23:07Speaker 3: Jordan Alvarez. Does that piss you off? No, I love Jordan. No,
- 23:12Speaker 3: are you pissed off that he took him?
- 23:14Speaker 7: No, it would not be my second overall pick because
- 23:16Speaker 7: I don't know how likely they are to move on
- 23:19Speaker 7: from the first round.
- 23:20Speaker 3: I do think they're going to end up beating the
- 23:22Speaker 3: White Sox. And I wouldn't be surprised if they end
- 23:24Speaker 3: up beating the Guardians. And this is why I didn't
- 23:26Speaker 3: understand the argument of, like.
- 23:28Speaker 2: I don't even want to get into the playoffs with
- 23:30Speaker 2: a bad record.
- 23:31Speaker 3: Like, the entire American League East is one side of
- 23:35Speaker 3: the bracket. And then the White Sox, Guardians, and Astros
- 23:40Speaker 3: are on. One of those three teams is going to make.
- 23:42Speaker 2: It to the ALCS.
- 23:43Speaker 3: Yep. And I hate to say it, but it wouldn't
- 23:45Speaker 3: surprise me that it's the Astros. Yeah.
- 23:49Speaker 2: And if that's the case, then Jordan Alvarez is a
- 23:51Speaker 2: great pick. It's a great pick.
- 23:52Speaker 4: All right.
- 23:52Speaker 2: What do you got, Anders? I'm going to go Matt Olsen.
- 23:55Speaker 6: Oh, wow.
- 23:56Speaker 7: I am trying to play the game here. I think
- 23:59Speaker 7: they move on from the Phillies. I think he is
- 24:03Speaker 7: a fantastic hitter, and I think they have a chance
- 24:05Speaker 7: to go far in this tournament as well. I like
- 24:07Speaker 7: the Braves this year, so Matt Olsen's my pick.
- 24:09Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
- 24:10Speaker 3: That is interesting because— I'm going to tell you right now,
- 24:13Speaker 3: I got the Phillies winning it all.
- 24:14Speaker 2: Really? I think they got the veteran team.
- 24:18Speaker 6: Wow.
- 24:18Speaker 2: They kind of limped into the playoffs. I know, I know.
- 24:21Speaker 3: But Lizardo, Sanchez, and Wheeler, nobody can match that threesome
- 24:25Speaker 3: in terms of starting rotation.
- 24:27Speaker 2: And they've got experience. Something about the Phillies, I think,
- 24:31Speaker 2: is magic. But you know what? It's baseball playoffs. Who
- 24:34Speaker 2: can predict it? I'm going to go ahead and play
- 24:37Speaker 2: that hunch, though.
- 24:38Speaker 3: I'm going to take Kyle Schwarber in the first round.
- 24:40Speaker 3: because I don't think he's going to come back around
- 24:42Speaker 3: to me. And I'm going to go ahead and take
- 24:44Speaker 3: what I think is going to be the best player
- 24:46Speaker 3: from the American League representative in the World Series. Willier
- 24:50Speaker 3: Abreu of the Boston Red Sox is going to be
- 24:52Speaker 3: my second round pick. I think the Red Sox have
- 24:55Speaker 3: the team that's going to represent the American League in
- 24:58Speaker 3: the World Series.
- 24:59Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, it's Philly and Boston in
- 25:01Speaker 2: the World Series. I don't necessarily disagree. That is not chalk!
- 25:04Speaker 7: Yeah, no, it's not. I don't necessarily disagree with the
- 25:06Speaker 7: Boston side of things. I think they're really good and
- 25:08Speaker 7: they have a clear path, especially if they can get
- 25:10Speaker 7: past the Yankees in round one.
- 25:12Speaker 2: So along those lines... I'll take Wilson Contreras.
- 25:15Speaker 3: He is the one that's a little banged up right now.
- 25:17Speaker 3: He's played one game in the last 12 days. He
- 25:20Speaker 3: had a phenomenal year this year, and he became their leader. Now,
- 25:26Speaker 3: I don't know how healthy he is, but I do
- 25:28Speaker 3: think the Red Sox are going to go a long way.
- 25:30Speaker 3: I think they're beating the Yankees. News about Aaron Judge
- 25:33Speaker 3: this morning, not making. The round of the playoffs, I think,
- 25:37Speaker 3: is going to obviously help them quite a bit. But,
- 25:41Speaker 3: all right, two Red Sox go before a Yankee goes.
- 25:43Speaker 3: I have a feeling David's like, you fools. I'm going
- 25:47Speaker 3: to take advantage of this.
- 25:48Speaker 2: But, Chris, you're up next. You've got Jordan Alvarez. Who
- 25:50Speaker 2: are you taking in round two? Oh, give me Trey Turner.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Trey Turner. Interesting. I think I had him last year.
- 25:57Speaker 2: He did not play well. Tough year. I'm hoping he
- 25:59Speaker 2: plays well from each end.
- 26:01Speaker 3: But I do like that you're like, I like that
- 26:03Speaker 3: Philly nonsense that you just spewed five minutes ago. I'll
- 26:07Speaker 3: take Trey Turner with a second-round selection.
- 26:10Speaker 2: All right, David, back to you. You get back-to-back picks here.
- 26:14Speaker 2: My guess is the board fell your way here. What
- 26:17Speaker 2: do you want to do?
- 26:19Speaker 6: Yeah, I kind of did. I am not touching the Yankees, though.
- 26:22Speaker 6: That seems like poison.
- 26:23Speaker 2: All right, good for you.
- 26:24Speaker 6: I'm going to take Junior Caminero.
- 26:27Speaker 5: Ooh.
- 26:28Speaker 2: That is good.
- 26:29Speaker 7: You're not going to get anything from the wild card
- 26:31Speaker 7: round from your first two picks, though.
- 26:34Speaker 3: But, I mean, he's probably getting the favorites.
- 26:38Speaker 2: Yeah, true.
- 26:39Speaker 6: Right.
- 26:40Speaker 2: The first round is just three games. That's true.
- 26:41Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 26:43Speaker 6: All right.
- 26:44Speaker 3: Here, I will take one wild card, and I'll take
- 26:46Speaker 3: maybe the guy who has been maybe the best player
- 26:50Speaker 3: in baseball.
- 26:50Speaker 6: I'll take PCA.
- 26:52Speaker 2: Oh, that's good. Good pick. I almost took him. I
- 26:55Speaker 2: don't know. I jumped the gun, I think, a little
- 26:57Speaker 2: bit on my Red Sox. I could have probably saved Debreu.
- 27:01Speaker 3: I don't think the Cubs are going to go far.
- 27:02Speaker 3: I don't think they're built for going far for the playoffs.
- 27:06Speaker 3: But he is having a magical year. It is just
- 27:08Speaker 3: three games. They do get to play at home, don't they?
- 27:11Speaker 3: Or is that in San Diego? That might be in
- 27:13Speaker 3: San Diego. That's in San Diego. So they don't get
- 27:15Speaker 3: to play at home. But, man, he's just had such
- 27:17Speaker 3: a magical year. He was so far away the best
- 27:20Speaker 3: player this season in baseball. There was a moment where
- 27:23Speaker 3: people were like, Otani versus PCA MVP in the NL.
- 27:27Speaker 2: And there was a real good debate. And then from
- 27:30Speaker 2: that point forward, it was nothing but PCA. Nothing close. Yeah.
- 27:34Speaker 2: So I think, man, you got some great picks here, David.
- 27:37Speaker 3: Yeah, I think maybe the rest of us are getting
- 27:39Speaker 3: too cute, and you're just like, I'm just going to
- 27:41Speaker 3: take the best players in baseball. That's probably a good call. Yeah,
- 27:44Speaker 3: and then let the chips fall where they may. All right, Chris,
- 27:47Speaker 3: you are up next. Round number three, you've got Alvarez
- 27:50Speaker 3: and Trey Turner.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Ooh, I will take, give me Stephen Kwan. Stephen Kwan,
- 27:57Speaker 2: look at you. You're going for the contact guys. You're
- 27:58Speaker 2: going with the, yeah, get on base, guys.
- 28:00Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 28:02Speaker 2: Forgive me. It's total bases, though. It's not batting average.
- 28:06Speaker 6: He's going for the all-pack 12 there.
- 28:07Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:08Speaker 2: True.
- 28:09Speaker 3: Yeah, you're going for, like, on-base percentage. You did know
- 28:12Speaker 3: it's total bases, not on-base percentage.
- 28:14Speaker 4: Yes.
- 28:15Speaker 2: All right, Stephen Kwan of all the Guardians. I mean,
- 28:18Speaker 2: he had a really.
- 28:19Speaker 3: Good second half, by the way, Kwan. All right, Anders,
- 28:22Speaker 3: you are up next. Your third round selection.
- 28:24Speaker 7: I'm going to take Fernando Tatis. Little known fact, he
- 28:27Speaker 7: is the player with at least 50 plate appearances that
- 28:30Speaker 7: has the highest OPS in his career in the playoffs
- 28:32Speaker 7: out of any of the players currently in the playoffs.
- 28:35Speaker 7: So I'm taking Tatis.
- 28:36Speaker 3: You know, he's the only player to ever hit 25
- 28:39Speaker 3: runs in a season without hitting his first until May.
- 28:42Speaker 7: Yeah, and then he still hit, what, almost 30? or
- 28:45Speaker 7: something like that maybe 20 25 or something like that yeah.
- 28:47Speaker 3: That's what i just said yeah yeah oh yeah sorry
- 28:49Speaker 3: sorry yeah yeah uh i knew you were gonna take
- 28:51Speaker 3: him yeah padres have a really good bullpen mason miller
- 28:55Speaker 3: has been kind of struggling down the stretch which is
- 28:58Speaker 3: very un-mason.
- 28:59Speaker 2: Miller like uh but like when you.
- 29:02Speaker 3: Talk about playoffs you usually are talking about starting pitching
- 29:07Speaker 3: bullpen gets emphasized and defense, the Padres on paper should
- 29:12Speaker 3: be all of that. But then again, they've been all
- 29:14Speaker 3: of that for the last three years and can't get
- 29:16Speaker 3: out of their own way. It's another reason why junior
- 29:19Speaker 3: Caminero lasted as long as he can. The Rays don't
- 29:22Speaker 3: seem to have the formula for winning in the playoffs
- 29:25Speaker 3: and neither did the Milwaukee Brewers best record in baseball.
- 29:29Speaker 3: And as you've noticed, probably no one has taken a
- 29:32Speaker 3: Milwaukee Brewer to this point in the process, but I'm
- 29:35Speaker 3: going to change that. I'm going to go ahead and
- 29:38Speaker 3: take Jackson Churrio, who has had a 920 OPS in
- 29:44Speaker 3: the month. He is flying into these playoffs. He is
- 29:47Speaker 3: probably the hottest hitter on this entire list. And then
- 29:50Speaker 3: I'm also going to take Jose Ramirez of the Guardians
- 29:55Speaker 3: with my last selection.
- 29:57Speaker 2: I don't know if I like my team, but it's
- 29:59Speaker 2: certainly off the beaten path.
- 30:01Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 30:03Speaker 2: No one can accuse me of chalk. All right, Anders,
- 30:06Speaker 2: you're back up. Round out your squad.
- 30:08Speaker 7: Speaking of not chalk, I'm going to take a Chicago
- 30:12Speaker 7: White Sox player.
- 30:13Speaker 2: Wow! I didn't think that was going to happen.
- 30:15Speaker 7: Because I think they might move on past Houston.
- 30:19Speaker 2: I hope so.
- 30:19Speaker 7: Two teams that both didn't really play well down the stretch,
- 30:22Speaker 7: but I think Chicago kind of has that juice. Houston
- 30:25Speaker 7: does not have pitching. Miguel Vargas was an animal all
- 30:30Speaker 7: year long.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Really good.
- 30:32Speaker 7: Everyone thinks of Munataka Murakami, and rightfully so. Great player.
- 30:34Speaker 7: But Vargas is their best hitter, and he does everything right.
- 30:38Speaker 7: If you look at his baseball savant page, it is
- 30:40Speaker 7: literally all red. So I'm taking him to go off.
- 30:44Speaker 7: All right.
- 30:44Speaker 2: Chris, your final pick. Freddie Freeman. Yeah.
- 30:47Speaker 3: Yeah. We went way light on Dodgers and Yankees, by
- 30:51Speaker 3: the way. It's only the second Dodger taken, and we
- 30:53Speaker 3: have not had a Yankee taken, and David has already declared,
- 30:56Speaker 3: I don't believe in the Yankees.
- 30:57Speaker 2: Good call.
- 30:58Speaker 3: So I don't think we're going to get a Yankee here. So, David,
- 31:01Speaker 3: you have the last pick. I think you've done better
- 31:03Speaker 3: than any of us so far.
- 31:05Speaker 2: What do you got?
- 31:07Speaker 8: Well, my game plan was to double down on Dodgers,
- 31:11Speaker 8: so I'm going to take Will Smith.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Oh, he's going Will Smith, not Max Muncy. Yeah. Oh,
- 31:16Speaker 2: maybe a mistake. Muncy had a big season.
- 31:20Speaker 3: He's also one of their most clutch hitters, especially this
- 31:23Speaker 3: time of the year. But I wrote Will Smith down.
- 31:25Speaker 2: Whoopsie.
- 31:28Speaker 6: Will Smith has had some pretty good postseasons.
- 31:31Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. All right, David. I think you nailed it.
- 31:34Speaker 2: I really do.
- 31:35Speaker 3: I mean, if the experts were evaluating this, they would
- 31:38Speaker 3: pick you to win by a landslide, I'm betting. uh
- 31:41Speaker 3: anders and chris and i got too cute yeah so
- 31:44Speaker 3: we hope you lose uh but thank you very much
- 31:47Speaker 3: for joining us try to enjoy the mlb playoffs you

- 32:05Speaker 3: Joey Otani, Junior Caminero, PCA, and Will Smith. Chris with
- 32:10Speaker 3: Jordan Alvarez, Trey Turner, Stephen Kwan, and Freddie Freeman. Anders
- 32:14Speaker 3: with Matt Olsen, Wilson Contreras, Fernando Tatis Jr., and Miguel Vargas.
- 32:19Speaker 3: Chuck's going with Kyle Schwarber, William Abreu, Jackson Churrio, and
- 32:23Speaker 3: Jose Ramirez because I'm saying Red Sox Phillies in the
- 32:27Speaker 3: World Series.
- 32:27Speaker 2: What say you? I say Red Sox Braves in the
- 32:31Speaker 2: World Series. Boy, that's really going to be the big
- 32:34Speaker 2: series for you and I.
- 32:35Speaker 3: Brave Phillies. Whoever advances. Starts at 11 o'clock. Coming up next,

- 32:50Speaker 5: Right back.
- 32:53Speaker 2: Oh, a rainy fall day.
- 32:55Speaker 3: Why not use that as an excuse to drive to
- 32:59Speaker 3: Tulalip Resort Casino today? Maybe watch a little baseball. Four
- 33:03Speaker 3: games being played starting at 11 o'clock. Maybe you place
- 33:06Speaker 3: a wager. You'd break the tie between Anders and I.
- 33:09Speaker 3: If you like the Phillies, you go my way. If
- 33:11Speaker 3: you go Braves, you.
- 33:13Speaker 2: Go Anders' way.
- 33:14Speaker 3: But head on out to the Tulalip Resort Casino. DraftKings Sportsbook.
- 33:17Speaker 3: They're waiting for you to start some new traditions.
- 33:22Speaker 2: It's where.
- 33:23Speaker 3: Everything is available. When all you want is everything, everything
- 33:26Speaker 3: to Laylip.com. All right, one last thing. Our first Chris Kidd,
- 33:30Speaker 3: one last thing coming up, but Anders, get us started.
- 33:33Speaker 3: Tell me if this sounds familiar, Chuck.
- 33:36Speaker 7: In soccer, there was a big report that came out
- 33:40Speaker 7: a few days ago, maybe like probably about a week
- 33:43Speaker 7: or so now. that kind of indicted Manchester City, one
- 33:47Speaker 7: of the bigger clubs in England, of alleged breaches of
- 33:51Speaker 7: financial rules that says the club relied on sham contracts, quote-unquote,
- 33:56Speaker 7: to artificially inflate profits by over $ 1.
- 33:58Speaker 6: 1 billion.
- 34:01Speaker 7: And they have been found guilty of 115 breaches of
- 34:06Speaker 7: these rules.
- 34:07Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't sound familiar to me. I'm not trying
- 34:09Speaker 3: to dodger your question. No, no, that doesn't sound like
- 34:14Speaker 3: anything anybody would do in.
- 34:15Speaker 7: America, that's for sure. Never in American sports, right? It's
- 34:19Speaker 7: a pure world over here.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Yeah, those people from Europe, they're dodgy. Dodgery. You know
- 34:26Speaker 2: what I mean?
- 34:27Speaker 4: They're like.
- 34:29Speaker 2: I don't know if you can trust them. Here in America,
- 34:32Speaker 2: we would never do anything like that.
- 34:34Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I mean, just putting it from the soccer perspective,
- 34:37Speaker 7: besides the Dodgers joke, that's pretty funny. It's a big
- 34:39Speaker 7: deal because they've won a bunch of Premier League titles
- 34:42Speaker 7: in this time period. And there could be retroactive... regulations
- 34:48Speaker 7: or indictment or sanctions, I should say, that end up
- 34:51Speaker 7: coming from this. There could be future sanctions that end
- 34:55Speaker 7: up coming from this, but it's kind of the beginning
- 34:57Speaker 7: of a huge story in the soccer world.
- 34:58Speaker 2: Just wanted to mention that. All right, kid, what is
- 35:00Speaker 2: your first one last thing? First and foremost... Thankful to
- 35:05Speaker 2: be back. Happy to be back. Great to have you back.
- 35:07Speaker 2: Appreciate you, Chuck. Text lines very happy that Chris is back. Yes,
- 35:11Speaker 2: they are.
- 35:11Speaker 8: So I appreciate all the love and support from everyone
- 35:13Speaker 8: out there. Sorry I haven't responded on Twitter and all that,
- 35:15Speaker 8: but I see it. Appreciate it. My second one, but
- 35:18Speaker 8: one last thing is how ass did Jameis Winston have
- 35:21Speaker 8: to be for them to be like, you know what?
- 35:24Speaker 2: We need J.J.
- 35:24Speaker 5: McCarthy.
- 35:25Speaker 2: It's so true. Like, did you guys see his press
- 35:28Speaker 2: conference after the win?
- 35:29Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 35:29Speaker 6: Jameis?
- 35:30Speaker 2: Yeah. Six times two, baby.
- 35:32Speaker 1: That's 12.
- 35:32Speaker 8: What's Jackson Dart's number? 12. And he was, like, amped
- 35:36Speaker 8: that they scored 12 points. So that's my one last
- 35:38Speaker 8: thing is, like, how bad are the New York Giants? Like,
- 35:40Speaker 8: we are grateful to be in Seattle where our team
- 35:43Speaker 8: runs a tight ship.
- 35:44Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 35:44Speaker 2: And you will never have your quarterback going up there like, yeah,
- 35:46Speaker 2: we did it for 12.
- 35:47Speaker 3: Why did he do the unnecessary math there? Why couldn't
- 35:51Speaker 3: he have just said we scored 12?
- 35:54Speaker 2: Oh, I see. He's number six.
- 35:55Speaker 4: Even worse.
- 35:56Speaker 2: So he's saying six times two. Even worse. You're right.
- 35:59Speaker 2: But that's even dumber.
- 36:00Speaker 6: It is dumber.
- 36:00Speaker 2: And then they were like, you know what, J.J. McCarthy,
- 36:02Speaker 2: we'll trade for.
- 36:03Speaker 4: You, bud.
- 36:03Speaker 3: How bad did the Vikings look that they traded J.J. McCarthy,
- 36:07Speaker 3: a top ten pick, for what, a seventh rounder yesterday?
- 36:11Speaker 3: Just to get him out of their building?
- 36:13Speaker 2: Yeah, basically. Look how bad that is.
- 36:15Speaker 4: How about that?
- 36:15Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of people looking bad. I'm going to
- 36:17Speaker 2: close with this.
- 36:19Speaker 3: This is going to happen a lot with Anders and Kidd,
- 36:22Speaker 3: but The names Bobby Brown got mentioned and Anders didn't
- 36:26Speaker 3: know him.
- 36:26Speaker 2: Do you know who that is? Yeah, of course he does. Yes,
- 36:29Speaker 2: I know who that is. A teaching moment. Yeah, right. Exactly.
- 36:34Speaker 2: Dean Martin got mentioned. I know Dean Martin. Oh, you
- 36:36Speaker 2: actually know Dean Martin. You don't know Bobby Brown, but
- 36:38Speaker 2: you know Dean Martin. Perry Como.
- 36:40Speaker 4: Okay.
- 36:40Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 36:41Speaker 3: I just got to share this because lately I've been
- 36:43Speaker 3: watching a lot of these videos. I think that a
- 36:46Speaker 3: lot of young people grew up with music that is
- 36:49Speaker 3: catchy and good. I'm not saying your music's not good,
- 36:52Speaker 3: but I don't think anybody can sing anymore. I don't
- 36:54Speaker 3: think they really highlight the actual vocal abilities. So I
- 36:59Speaker 3: have been watching for some reason a lot lately, Tom Jones.
- 37:04Speaker 2: Who I'm going to introduce the two of you to.
- 37:06Speaker 3: One of the greatest vocalists you've ever heard in your life.
- 37:09Speaker 3: But a bunch of young people who apparently have these
- 37:11Speaker 3: channels where people tune in just to watch them react
- 37:15Speaker 3: to music that they've never heard of before.
- 37:16Speaker 2: Oh, it's awesome.
- 37:17Speaker 3: There are a thousand of young people reacting to Tom Jones.
- 37:21Speaker 2: For the first time.
- 37:22Speaker 3: I cannot believe that anybody can sing that well.
- 37:26Speaker 2: And I'm addicted. I can't.
- 37:28Speaker 3: I watched like six more of them last night, the
- 37:31Speaker 3: same song. So we might play some Tom Jones tomorrow
- 37:34Speaker 3: so I can get the two of you and your
- 37:36Speaker 3: reactions to one of the great vocalists of all time.
- 37:39Speaker 2: Also one of the greatest ladies men. In the history
- 37:43Speaker 2: of ladies, man.
- 37:43Speaker 6: I'm in.
- 37:44Speaker 3: All right.
- 37:45Speaker 2: We'll talk to you tomorrow at 6.
- 37:46Speaker 3: Greg, also one of the great ladies men in the
- 37:48Speaker 3: history of ladies men, along with Jessamyn McIntyre on Sports
- 37:52Speaker 3: Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
