  Speaker 3: into your routine. So it feels great right now.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: All right, I gotta tell you this. So last time
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: we had you on, you left and Andrews. What happened
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: on a text line?
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: Everyone started talking about who, Tyle kinda sounds like on
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: the radio?
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Oh gosh, So who have people told you that you
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: sound like?
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: I've heard comparisons like coach Mike McDonald, which is sweet.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there was that, that was one of them. There
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: was one other coach, oh really in the NFC West.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Jeez, I don't know if you want to know this.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: I think I've got an idea at this point.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, it's not Kyle Shanahan. Yeah.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, listen if you sound not just voice like yeah,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: but all so the way you speak, I take that
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: as a compla move.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Those for sure. Yeah, no doubt about it.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: I did even asked you this before. I mean, you're
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: you're early in your career, but I mean, are you
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: a guy that thinks, Hey, when I'm done, I'm gonna coach.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: We'll see. I'm taking it one one step at a time,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: one step at a time.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, the rams have a perfect replacement. They'll just
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: like slide you in there. It's like an AI version. Yeah,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: it's a I guy.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: I love it on this side so far.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: So well, listen the uh, how different for you is
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: it in this camp. I was just talking to Greg
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Bell or our beat reporter. He's on the show before
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: me from the News Tribune, and we're talking about a
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: year ago with you when everyone's doing their you know,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: roster projections and things like that. You're probably on the
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: team in those guys eyes, not that they matter, but
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: you're probably on the team. But you're a guy that's
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: a special team's guy, a bubble guy. Now you're a
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: starter on a Super Bowl team. How different is it
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: for you this year in this camp after all the
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: stuff you've been through since your first year.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: No, I appreciate you guys saying that, But at the
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: same time, for me, you know, you guys know my
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: story for those who aren't familiar, like former walk on
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: at Montana stay undrafted. So for me, I'm always just
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: trying to find ways to improve that. You know, the
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: comfort level has been great to be able to grow
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: in that area and feel more confident just with the scheme,
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: with my teammates, everything that piece of it has been great.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: But I'm just I'm never satisfied, always hungry, and that's
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: just kind of how I was born and raised. Like
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: it's it's always, you know, all the chips are on
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: the table and I'm always trying to prove myself and
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: I've just always had that mentality. So from that perspective,
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: nothing much has changed.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: You know what I noticed from and we're very limited
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: to what we can say in terms of what you
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: guys do out there. But one of the things I
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: notice Eve on Saturday is watching like the drills, the
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: safety drills. You and Julian are one like you guys
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: are going You're leading those drills like that wasn't the case.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Maybe a year ago or two years ago. You were
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: in the line, but you weren't the first guy through.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: That's a leadership role. We talked about it in mini
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: camp with Bud Clark. Do you feel like you've kind
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: of basically taken that on a little bit too.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm definitely trying to grow in that role. But
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: what's super special about our dB room and our safety
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: room is we're all pushing each other to be the
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: best versions of ourselves as people and as players overall.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: And so I think that's what makes our group so
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: special is it's so many guys, they're all competitive, all
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: great players and people where it's like I can learn
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: something from Julian just the same way as I can
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: learn something from Bud and vice versa. And it's that's
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: I think what's so special about that room as we
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: all just push each other.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Title Katta with being in Froness with you SOK training camp.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: The first year of Mike McDonald's tenure here in Seattle.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I remember sitting here with some guys veteran players that
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: we're saying, well, we love the defense. Coach Mike has
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: this incredible IQ football IQ, but there's a lot to it, Like,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: there's a lot to the defense.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: And usually you hear.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: That about an offense, right it's like, well, we're running
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: this offense. It's gonna take a couple of years and
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: things like that, but there's a lot to it. Do
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: you feel obviously, you guys are the best defense in
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: the NFL last season? How different is it now for
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: him and that defense and for guys like you that
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: have been here for a while. Do you just feel
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: like ultra comfortable and you see more progression with what
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: he want us to do defensively.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, And that's what's been great about the progression is like, okay,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: learning the scheme, getting comfortable with the scheme, and now
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: on top of that, now it's getting into a lot
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: of scouting and camp is great because it's still back
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: to the basics. There's still so much with this defense
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: that you always gotta you know, across the t's and
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: dot the eyes. But what's incredible is just the progression
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: and the comfort level of all the guys. You can
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: kind of see it and now everybody's flying around the
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: way we communicate has just continuously progressed, and so it's
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: been really special from that perspective.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Do you ever just look at him in a meeting
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: room and just go wow? Like this because around the
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: league it took up out a year we all knew
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: what a great decoordinator is, but not just as a
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: defensive mind. Like we listened to him the other day.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: He talked about the Michael Jordan story. He told you guys,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: and maybe you can tell that to our listeners that
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: didn't here. Just the way he handles being a head coach,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: and he talks about like he's different today than he
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: was in the spring and last year and the year before.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: But do you ever kind of look at yourself go wow, man,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: this guy is this guy's something special.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's just on a whole nother level. And
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Coach Mike is just so so that way and the
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: way he can get. It's been nice to see like
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: what he had and his vision just come to life,
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: and it's he he had been speaking it from the beginning,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: and just the way we have grown as a team
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: and as a family and as a unit. It's just
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: special to see that vision that he's always had come
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: to life.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: What was the story? Tell people the story of the
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Michael Jordan like. It was a kind of a collection, right,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: it was, he talked absolutely and this is the o
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: G Michael Jordan's story. So this was, you know, well
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: before our time, so he kind of had to die
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: a little bit deeper. But but he had already been
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: such an incredible player for the Bulls at that point.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: But a lot of it was it was Michael Jordan
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: has been had been playing extremely well up until that point,
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: but they hadn't won a championship, and it was almost
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: just a collection of, Hey, Michael's still going to be Michael, Like,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: we're not going to take anything away from him being
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: the best player in the world.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: How are we going to add to it? And then
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Michael reflecting and looking in the mirror and saying, hey,
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: what is it going to take for me to out
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: only elevate my game but elevate everybody else around me?
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: And that's that's what was so special. I think that's
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: what was great about our team last year and every
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: single year, you know, you're starting off new, it's fresh,
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: it's a new team, but you're still trying to build
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: that mentality of what and That's what was so great
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: about our team, lash Yers. Our our best guys were
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: still able to bring everybody else along with them too
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: and hold everybody that same standard and elevate everybody else's game.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: And so that's that's just been super cool to see
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: come to life.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Like one of those best guys is the offensive player
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: of the year, absolutely, And I look at him. I
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: watch him how he works out there and how he's
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: like he feels very unassuming, and yet he's the best
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: player in the offense in the NFL last year.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Is that a good description of absolutely absolutely still grinding any.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: And he elevates everybody else around him.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: And then you're working with a guy like Witherspoon every day.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. Yeah, that's like why.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: Here from the receivers, I see Jake Bobo walking back
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: and he says, he goes, he makes me better.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Ricky White was telling us out that spring he makes
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: me better. But man, he never shuts up.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: No, No, It's so it's so special and just awesome
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: getting to be teammates with Spoon. And I tell this,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: it's funny. If I ever do get into coaching, I've
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: said this from the beginning of playing with Spoon is
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: he will be like, let's say I'm coaching college football,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: someday he will be the example that I always put
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: on film for saying, hey, look this guy has wont
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: has already been in X amount of Pro Bowls. He's
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: not won a Super Bowl, and you're still going to
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: continue to see the same Spoon. Look at how he
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: runs the ball in practice, right, And I'm gonna look
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: at these young players and be like, hey, there's no excuses.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: This guy's doing it with Pro Bowls under his belt everything,
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: And that's just he's that person day in and day
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: out as a player, as a person, it's just it's
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: really incredible to learn from him and watch him go
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: do his thing every single day.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Time minus the Pro Bowls. At you too, though, but
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: that's the whole defense. Yes, Like that's that's how this
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: team operates. But that's that's why why you fit in.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: I'll wrap it up with this. I heard a great
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: story of the day from one of a Seahawks staffer,
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: and I can't get the specifics about it, but you know,
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: like there's times when you when you're like, are you
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: gonna like day before Super Bowl where are we mentally
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: and this guy's been around forever. And he said, I
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: saw something an interaction between two players, veteran rookie and
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: I'll be honest, different races, everything like just and far
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: as far away, and I saw an interaction the day
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: before and I and this interaction. He said, I'm watching
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: it and i'ment Wow, we're gonna win. And he talked
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: about how connected you guys are. You've been in a
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: lot of locker rooms, and you've been here on and
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: off the roster. Is that maybe the strength of this team,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: How just connected you guys are in so many ways.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: No doubt.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: I think that's a big part of you know, what
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: we do, and it's something that we don't just speak
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: about it. We're extremely intentional about it too, Like we
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: do these walking talks and all of it is about
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: building our connection. We go through hard things together. I
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: think that's the importance too about grinding out camps, many
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: camp the way we do things, it just it helps
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: brings us together even more so. It's it's incredible.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Tyle Cott is here with us. We'll let you get inside.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: We go coffe oh t t it is it God,
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: it's hot for tea.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: Is it not funny? Killing? Now?
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: I gotta keep the voice fresh?
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Is that what it is?
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of yelling.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Out there, I would imagine. So no crowd here today.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: That's a little bit different. Do you more business like
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: those guys?
• 10:13

• 11:58
  Speaker 2: out here since say first open in this great facility
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: on the shores of Lake Washington, all those years ago,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: and it just, you know, as much as things change,
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: they remain the same, anders they really do. It's it's
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: I walked out here, I came out this is what
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: would this be my eighteenth training camp in a row
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: that I've covered. I covered a handful before when I
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: worked at Como back in the early nineties at Northwest
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: College before they went back to Cheney. So I've been
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: doing this for a long time. But this is the
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: eighteenth straight training camp that I've been here at the
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Virginia may Actually I'm sorry, this is the nineteenth training
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: camp that I've been at. Nineteenth straight training camp, eighteenth
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: in a row here at this particular facility, and it
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: just you I walked in here on Saturday afternoon. I
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: wanted to be here for day one and walked out
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: here and go all right, here we go. It's football season.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: It feels like football season. You hear the whistles, the horns. They,
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: by the way, don't start practicing until twelve fifty five,
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: so it is a little quiet in the background right now.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Twelve fifty five is practice.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: No fan today, no fans today, because it's so they
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: had fans Saturday and Sunday. No fans today. I think
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: fans are back tomorrow and then they're off on Wednesday,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: So anytime they're practicing, fans are not. We're out here
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: starting at six am with Chuck Powell in the morning
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: and then away we go all the way through Dave
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Softy Maller and Richard el Faine coming up at three
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: pm today. So we'll get into some of the things
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: in a second from Saturday when I came out here.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: I you know, I didn't want to miss day one.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: I'll get into some of those things in a second.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Definitely definitely want to touch base a little bit more
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: on what tyle Cotta had to say, because there's some
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: things I wrote down.
• 13:37
  Speaker 8: You mean, future head coach tyle Cotta.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I don't like to insult the guys, like, dude,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: I know you're hoping to have like a ten twelve
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: year career. I get that yeah, but like you come
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: on our error and we get texts at four nine,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: four y five one, it's like, this dude is a
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: damn coach.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: He is a coach, and he sounds like a coach.
• 13:52
  Speaker 8: Well, Lelly, I don't think that's insulting. He was a starter.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: No, he was actually And actually after we went to
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: break he walked by, goes Dude, that was a really
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: cool story. Thanks for sharing that with me about being
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: sounded like those guys. Yeah, yeah, Hey, I'm glad we did,
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: because yeah, some guys like if you if you are
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: compared with not just voice, but also intelligence with McVeigh
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: and McDonald. Okay, Like, and you're playing, by the way,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: you're also playing a position that's a fairly cerebral position.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: In right, you're playing a safety position. He's asked to
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: do a lot. And I'll just start with him, Like
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of guys to talk about, I'll start
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: with him and Julian Love. You know, they lose Kobe
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Bryant in the offseason, and Kobe was a solid player
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: for them, a guy that came in here as a
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Thorpe Award winner as a rookie five years ago. And
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: and you know, the best corner in college as a
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: cover corner. They convert him to he's a nickelback, starting
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: nickel for his rookie year. Then they converted. Then he
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: kind of gets lost in the wash, like somewhere in
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: the wake of Seahawk football. He kind of got washed
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: away for about a year. He was banged up, and
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: they make him a safety. He's very effective in that regard.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: But make no mistakes, you're you're two starters at that
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: position are both still here, and that would be Love
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: and Okata, and then you draft the guy and Bud Clark,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: who they have high expectations for. I'm not including even
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Worry in the safety position for now, just for I
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: don't know what he is. He's a football player, Yeah,
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: that's what he is like to sound to pull a
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Chuck Knox. He's a football player. But that's what he is.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Like even like you think of safety is two guys
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: deep in the secondary. That's Love, that's Okada, and watching
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: those guys just kind of lead the charge again, the
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: leadership on this team, the connected uh nature and personality
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: of this team.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It's just it's it's fun to watch. It really is.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: And and I'll just say this anders.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: About the atmosphere out here, the and and the coach specifically,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: the difference between two thousand and again, I've is one
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: practice on Saturday, but it was the first practice, huge crowd.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: If there's any like remember we talked about it last year,
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: there's like there's some gaps.
• 15:59
  Speaker 8: In the Yeah, definitely there was a little bit of like.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Right right, it was very much at least in terms
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: of in person like making the commitment to come out
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: and to watch a practice, to go ride the school
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: bus from the rent and landing and stand in line
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: forever to catch said school bus and come back like
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: it's a commitment, a big commitment, to be honest with you,
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: for a fan to come out here and watch football pro.
• 16:28
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a whole day. It's a whole day.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: It's a whole day, especially not knowing what football practice
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: is going to entail. Now, first one's different, but you
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: don't know are they in pads or not, are they
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: going through They do their little walk through things sometimes
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: in T shirts, and you know McDonald's not planning around
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: the fans. He's planning around his own schedule, so you
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: don't know. It was packed. So the enthusiasm of the
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: crowd was was old school. It was like the old guys.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: I'll say that. It was very very much like it
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: was like it used to be, you know a few
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: years ago I would say pre COVID. It was like
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: it was pre COVID. So that was cool, Like that
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: felt normal. What didn't feel normal to me? Compared to
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: and I'm gonna say normal compared to twenty fourteen when
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: they had were coming off a Super Bowl. Man, that team,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: and this isn't a criticism by any means. I don't
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: want to any take this as a criticism. Just different
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: teams have different personalities. That team, man, you you walked
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: out here in twenty fourteen in July and August, you
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: knew they were the defending champs, right like you knew that,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: like you felt it. You knew it.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: There was no doubt about it, none whatsoever. It's kind
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: of what endeared me to that team, and I think
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: so many of us because they were, you know, they're
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: not Seattle. They were so big and boisterous, they were
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: New York. They weren't Seattle. They were look at me,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: and that was kind of cool. Like we had a
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: cocky arrogant, confident group of dudes that let you know
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: about it every second of the day. I come out
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: here on Saturday, this was the wild thing.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Crowds go crazy. This team. They are all business man,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: they are all business. It is it is.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: They came out, you know, they had some fans that
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: you know, they can run through a little bit of
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: a tunnel with some kids. We post that on social media, right.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: But they are such a reflection of the coach, who
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: is just business as usual. Like this dude is just
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: buttoned and I love McDonald. Guy just comes across as
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: an incredible leader and brilliant. But they come out there
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: and they're a reflection of him. They come on in
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: the field and let's go, let's get after the business
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: and and get to work right away. I think it's
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: the reflection of the leaders on this team, whether it
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: be a Sam Donald on offense jsan. I mentioned that
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: to Tyle Kotta. If you're just tuning in, we had
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: Tyle Cotton. We'll get back to that interview at some
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: point down the road. He was incredible, as he always says,
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: with Yo katta he you know, and and listening to
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: him speak, you know, that's kind of how they operate,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: just very business like. Let's let's lead by example, let's
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: reflect how our coach wants us to be and how
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: we act. And yeah, I just I everyone's gonna be
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: giving the Rams a whole lot of love, man, and
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: rightfully so.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: That roster's crazy good.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: And they were basically one play away from not just
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: going to the super Bowl. We're all smart enough to
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: understand if if they went, they win right like the
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: like we did. Hell, I'll make an argument right now
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: if the forty nine ers would have gone to the
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: super Bowl last year even without other stars. I'm not
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: so sure. I'm not so sure Kyle Shanahan and hopefully
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: he gets better soon. We'll get to that story a
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: little bit. I'm not so sure they don't boat race
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: New England as well. But these guys just came out
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: and JSN best offensive player in the league. Works his
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: ass off. Yeah, like just works his ass off. Same
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: thing when you're watching Witherspoon. Here was the impressive thing
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: for me. And I'm just gonna point this out. I mean,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: everyone's gonna do their own thing. I'm I'm gonna play
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: it by the rules. They don't want us talking about
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: formations and rotations and things like that. So I'll kind
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: of dance around that as best I can. I'll just
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: watching Devin Witherspoon work his tail off, knowing he's any
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: second now going to get about a thirty to thirty
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: one million dollar a year contract, but still participating in practice.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: That was cool. That was impressive. If I'm a Seahawk fan,
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: I want to hear that. I'll be excited to hear that,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: because anders that guy very easily could stand on the sideline,
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: arms folded and just kind of wait till his agent
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: gets a deal done, or wait till Christian Gonzalo gets
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: his deal done, and all that right, They could just wait,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: but no, he's out here working now. It helps same
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: agent and probably similar contract that they're both going to get.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: But I thought that was impressive. So we'll get to
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: price and some other things. There's a lot of impressions
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: from that from day one, but I just kind of
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: want to set things up as we start our coverage
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: here with just my first impressions of Saturday. I came
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: out here thinking and I told my son, who's a
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: massive Seahawks fan, and his buddies. They were asking, I said, fellas.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: I would be excited, man, I would be excited. They
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: got a hard schedule, They've got the best division of football.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: They've got to find their way through. But this is
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: this is a team that is gonna cause a lot
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: of other teams problems this season. And they're gonna they're
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: gonna go down fighting and swinging as a defending champs.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: And I don't know if they're gonna go down. They
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: got a shot. I mean, injuries matter, all those things matter,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: all those things a lot, and there's there's gonna be
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: a lot of things that happened between now and the
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: end of the season when we see the Rams and
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks play for the first time. But I feel
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: awful good about this team. And I'll say one last thing.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: I want you jump in. The other thing I would
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: say about who they are, it's it's very different from say,
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: the twenty fourteen season, coming off that devastating loss, and
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: we're all wondering how it's gonna be and and you
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: know what are gonna be after shocks of losing that heartbreaker.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: So going into that twenty fifth Dean season, you know,
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: how was it? Well, we saw holdouts, contract disputes, squabbles,
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: internal strife, all the things that happened and it started
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: to fall apart and crack at the seams. This team
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: is so well connected it's crazy. So yeah, let's go.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Man. This is a twenty twenty six football seasons here thoughts.
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you mentioning how different it feels from
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: the twenty fourteen right after they won their Super Bowl, right,
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: it felt like we were at top of the world
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: at that point. We were about to start this whole dynasty.
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: And it was hard to really see at that point
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: that that team, once they would hit some adversity, some distractions,
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: that it would be hard to overcome that just because
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: of who they are, right. Ye, I don't see that
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: with this team whatsoever. And you mentioned the togetherness, but say,
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: say you do get, you know, a massive injury, or
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: you do get some disappointment, maybe you go out earlier
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: than you expect to this year. It's not one of
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: those things where it's just going to fall apart at
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: the seams like it did with that kind of group
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: of I feel like this team can overcome that kind
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: of as you said, internal strife, more than anything else.
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: And I think that's by design, Like you said by
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: this head coach, that kind of grab your lunch, playo,
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: grab your hard hat, get put your head down and
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: go to work sort of mentality. So that's what differs
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: between this team and what that team was.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: I wonder, and I don't know if you'd ever answer it.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: We don't get too often an opportunity just to talk
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: to John Steiner one on one. I wonder if he
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: learned something from twenty thirteen. And what I mean by
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: that is this and twenty fourteen, et cetera. They got
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: JSN done in the offseason, got it done, boom out
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: of the way, and in theory, really in theory, he
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: probably you could make an argument. I think you can
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: make a pretty solid argument that he might have been
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: a guy that would be harder to sign than Witherspoon.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: He's the best off NFL offensive plot, not the NFC.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: He's the NFL offensive player of the year, right, and
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: they got that done, distraction one out of the way.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: By all accounts, what we're hearing out here now is
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: that Witherspoon's gonna be done any second, any day, what
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: have you. It's not gonna be a prolonged situation. They're
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: gonna get him locked up. They made their decisions in
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: the off season as to who to let go and
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: who to keep. They've, like Schneider, really got out ahead
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: of things like John and his staff. And maybe this
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: is just speaks to how I don't know, maybe they're
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: a little more connected as a group than John and
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Pete were. I think they might be only in the
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: sense that in that situation, Pete was ultimately the boss.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: But really, you're a head coach, You're not as familiar
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: with personnel around the league, college personnel, et cetera. You're
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: you're just not as you're just not as connected with
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: all that stuff is as the GM is sore. I'm
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: sure there were times, well Jamal Adams, when Pete would
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: fall in love with somebody or want some thing to happen,
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: and andrews it it. It was like make it happen,
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: and probably deep down John knew that wasn't the thing
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: to do right right, like that just wasn't the thing
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: to do. That wasn't what we that wasn't what was
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: best for the football team. And so now you've got
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: the gas. It's a better hierarchy in a sense with
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: the GMS in charge, the coaches below him. McDonald is
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: really good at anything that comes up that it might
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: have to do with personnel, contracts or whatever. He pushes
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: it right to John's plate. He did it on Saturday
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: when we talked to him after the practice on Saturday. Yeah,
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: that's John's thing. Let's let let John do. Let John
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: deal with that. And he does that. And I think
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: that connected nature. And I think the fact that they
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: got they got JSN done, They're gonna get Witherspoon done
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: and away we go, and you know they've got they'll
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: have decisions down the road, certainly have decisions down the
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: road with you know, what to do with Sam Donald
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: in the future and things like that. They made the
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: decision to let ken Walker go. They bring in jadari
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: in Price, who will talk about today for sure, But
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: they just seemed connected. And I want to go back
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: to that story about being connected if people missed it
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: with with Tyle Cotta. I was talking to a staffer,
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: longtime staffer for the team on Saturday at practice, and Andrews.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: This is the first time that this type of story
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: I've heard about this this past year's Super Bowl team,
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: because when they won it in twenty thirteen, the second
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: the second the game was over. In twenty thirteen, I'm
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: in the locker room. How I actually was on We
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: were on the field talking to guys, and I remember
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Cliff and Michael kJ guys I talked to on the field,
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: all said, right off the top, right, we knew we
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: had this two weeks ago. We knew we had that.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: And then you hear all the and everyone's written the
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: story and talked about it. They all talked about how
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: we knew we had this win. And they all talked
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: about the same time watching film. I think it was
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: the like the Tuesday of you know, following the NFC
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: Championship game, whatever, it was like, we watched film, boom boom,
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: here it is.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: We knew we had it.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: First I ever heard these guys anything about this team.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: And it wasn't as broad based because it was just
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: one individual who was doing some work. He needed to
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: get some stuff done. And he observed an interaction between
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: two players far different in terms of a where they
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: came from, background, race, tenure in the league. Just they
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: couldn't have been more polar opposite on every level outside
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: the fact that Bull Seattle Seahawks, and he saw an
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: interaction between these two guys and he said, man, he
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: went and sold spoolas this, this thing's over, like just
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: watching practice all week and seeing this, and he said
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: it was over for this reason, something that they had
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: all talked about as a staff, as an organization all year.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: How connected they were in that locker room. How unselfish
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: they were in that locker room. How does that translate? Well,
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: you get a lot more done, right, doesn't matter what business. Yeah,
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: you get a lot more done when everyone's on the
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: same page.
• 27:52
  Speaker 8: It's efficiency, right, everyone's rolling the same.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Direction, everyone's rolling the it's the who's the coaches at PJ.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Fleck Wrider.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: His name isn't Ben roll the boat right, We're all
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: rolling the boat. Right, We're all rolling the boat. We're
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: all rolling the boat in the same way. It's like
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: watching a great crew out at the Montlet cout just goes,
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: you know, and it's just like every ore is in
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: perfect unison. That's what those guys were, right, And that
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: comes from the head coach, you know. That comes from
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: the head coach. That and that goes back to Jody
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: making that decision. I mean, I know, hey, if you're
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: listening down in the in the in the five oh
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: three area code. My apologies. I know you guys aren't
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: fans of Jody Allen down there in Portland, and I
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: get it. I'm telling you right now, they don't win
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl without her because she had to be
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: the one that made the decision Pete out and Okay,
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald as John Schneider's picked to replace him, to
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: come in sign off on John being the guy. All
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: those things had to take place, like, all those things
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: had to take place.
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, what about not just getting rid of Pete Carroll
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: because they didn't know at that point who was going
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: to be the replacement, at least I don't think they did.
• 28:53
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: They go through the whole process of who to hire.
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: Remember that was the that was the year that all
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: the head coach like the Ben Johnson's of the world,
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: we're all available, right, And uh it was kind of
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: this this very under the radar guy from Baltimore that
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: ended up he was.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Thought to be the guy.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: He was thought to be the guy, but the defensive guy,
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: right And in today's NFL, today's.
• 29:15
  Speaker 9: Football, right, right, everybody.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: Wants the hot offensive guy. Sure, that's that's that's why. Hell,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: that's why Michael Daniel got hired in Miami. Right, guys
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: like that like like it does, like you want the
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: hot offensive guy and.
• 29:30
  Speaker 8: Look at Cobiak Clink Kubiak.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a great example.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: I because I think if I'm not mistaken and someone
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: at four nine, four or five, when I'm certain fact
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: fact check me on this, I I believe it wasn't
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: there a story that Ben Johnson kind of turned Seattle down.
• 29:45
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think I do remember that, I do, right, yes.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: And my understanding here is they never offered him the job. Okay,
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: now there's a there's we might be splitting hairs offering
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: the job or just saying no or turning him down.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, maybe he just wasn't interested.
• 30:02
  Speaker 8: Sure whatever, the case was turned down an interview.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: The Seahaws were gonna interview him, but they weren't super
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: interested in him anyway, that kind of thing.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they were gonna interview him, and maybe he wasn't interested,
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: but they you know whatever, and it just wasn't I
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: think McDonald was his guy all along.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: They talk about going back there. I was at that game.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: I covered that game in Baltimore when when McDonald's defense
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: put a licking on that team like I in all
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: the years of Pete Carroll, I don't there was four
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: or five max maybe games where you just by, like
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: the second or third series you said it's over right,
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: like like you're not in the same class. It rarely
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: happened with Pete, and especially not after the first couple
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: of years. It just was that was one of those games.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: I'm like, Gino's got no shot man, Like, it's.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: Just this is this is bad.
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: Well not just that he did it to the forty
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: nine ers that year as well.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Yep, yep, and they made that decision. So you go
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: back and it's like, why is why are we sitting
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: here today? Why did I walk by a second Lombardi
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: Trophy in today that's sitting there in the lobby. Is
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: because Jody Allen and John Schneider and Mike McDonald and
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: however that worked together. It did, and that's why we're
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: here today, and that's why they're defending champs.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: But yeah, we're one day in. We got a lot
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to get to today.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: We're gonna hear from Rob rang at some point, just
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: talking about kind of a kind of a setup of
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: the young guys to watch for kind of refresher course
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: they have a very and very small rookie class. Oh okay,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: thirteen guys including I mean they have, they had drafted
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: eight signed. They only signed five undrafted free agents. So
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: the Tyle Kotta, Doug Baldwin Germaine curses of the world,
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: those guys don't exist this year. There's only five of them, right,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: and I have a hard time seeing any of those
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: five making the fifty three men.
• 31:48
  Speaker 8: You're gonna be tough.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And so it's a very different setup this year.
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: Eight draft picks out of the eight draft picks, five
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: probably make it five eight.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 32:02
  Speaker 8: When's the last time he said that about a Seahawks team.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Huh, that just doesn't happen.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: No, that also speaks It also speaks to the solid
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: nature of the foundation. This roster hundred place. Yeah, it's
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: in place. I mean, it's it's very much in play.
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: All Right, we'll tell you break, we'll come back more.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: Practice starts about fifteen minutes time.
• 32:18
  Speaker 10: Uh.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Here, Day three of Seahawk training Camp nine three point
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: three KJFM.
• 32:25
  Speaker 7: Now back to Ian Furness at the Virginia Mason Athletics
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: Center and our special coverage of Seahawks training camp brought
• 32:32
  Speaker 7: to you by the Boweing Classics on Sports Radio ninety
• 32:35
  Speaker 7: three point three kJ R FM.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Hi, we're back here at the Seahawks training camp. He
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: infronts with you. The practice probably been pushed back a
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: little bit. I think this is gonna be the schedule
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: week schedules change. Looks like one to ten will be
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: things getting going. So we'll hear from Robber and coming
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: up the top of the hour, get you caught up
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: in all the rookies, and at some point in our
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: friend Corbyn Smith, who's got the best looking picture I've
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: seen in a long time, is out here from Emerald
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: City Spectrum locked on Seahawks as well, So we'll check
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: in with him probably in the two o'clock hour, once
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: he's got a chance to lay eyes on guys for
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: an hour. As a few players just starting to make
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: their way out there right now, Greg Bell and I
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: were in a little bit of a differing of opinion
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: who the first player was on the field Saturday for
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: the first practice of the year for those like to
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: keep practice. I just think I think it was from
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: what my eyes told me, it was Abe Lucas. And
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: that's not just as a cougar. It was Abe Lucas.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: Bud Clark came out after him, but I think he
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: said Bud Clark doesn't matter. Those guys are out here early.
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: Who is that right there?
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: That's royal, But guys are just coming out.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: No fans today, Well, there's a handful of fans quote
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: VIPs and so on and so forth are here.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: But that's about it. And once you asked me that question.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: Right now we're talking about the break.
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I think obviously we talked about Whetherspoon and his
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: contract negotiation, but all all signs are pointing to him
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: being the highest paid cornerback in the league. And I'm
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: curious if I mean, obviously we want to get him paid,
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: and it's always the next guy that he the highest
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: paid player, but do you think he deserves to be
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: the highest paid corner in the league at this point?
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: I asked that question a couple I want to say
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: last week it might have been I asked that question
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: with Corbin. I think one day I believe it was Corbin.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: I asked if if Devin Witherspoon should be the highest
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: pai corner in the league. And I think what our
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: conversation was, and this is why I think the answer
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: today is yes. Now, obviously by next year he won't
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: be and you can make the argument, is Christian Gonzale
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: should he be the guy? The versatility, I think is
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: what we talked about that Corby and I talked about
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: the versatility with Devin Witherspoon's He can play boundary, he
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: can play on the outside, he can play nickel on
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: the inside. Frankly, he can play anywhere in a different
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: way than say like an even warr like even worries
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: that guy, right like, this is a versatility. So he
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: does it at an incredibly high level, like one of
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: the best in the league at all the but he
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: plays so many different places, Like Richard Sherman, you knew
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: where he was going to be. He played on the
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: same side, and by no means it just a criticism
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: of number twenty five. He's a Hall of Famer. He
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: played on one side. He didn't follow the best receiver around.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: That was a Pete Carroll choice, not his. I'm sure
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: if he has sure him he wanted to go follow
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: that dude. Now he did on occasion. He did on occasion,
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: but he played on one side, same side, boundary corner
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: all the time period. Witherspoon you you look at a
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: see if you're looking at I'm gonna use I'm gonna
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: use football nerd terms. Sorry Corbyn, uh Hugh, everybody else.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: If you look at the all twenty two, you never
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: know where twenty one is gonna be. It's true, like
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: you don't, and yet he does it at an all
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: pro level.
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: Well I almost think that kind of is so yeah.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: So yeah, to answer your question, yes, I think he
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: should be.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: I almost think that plays against him in terms of
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: at least his reputation, because I don't I don't see
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: him in all these you know, NFL top one hundred lists,
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: says the guy that's the top corner back in the league,
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: it's usually Patrick's Ertan or maybe a Christian Gonzalez. U
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: mc duffy, Yeah, yeah, I McDuffie maybe as well. But
• 36:02
  Speaker 5: I think certain is probably the consensus best cornerback in
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: the league right now. And for whatever reason, those guys
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: that you were mentioning, like the Richard Sherman's or Debrell
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: Reevus in his prime it was like, oh, Revus Island,
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: you know, it's you know where he's gonna be, and
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: and that kind of added to his without a better
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: term lore a little bit. But with Devin Witherspoon, because
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: he can do so many different things that adds value
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: to him, but you don't know a real way to
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: describe how much he's actually helping a team, and maybe that.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, yeah, And if I'm with you, I
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: think that's a good point. I think like with those guys,
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: whether it was revis back in the day, you know,
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: certainly with SHRM, you you kind of game planned around
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: them as well, right, like exactly, but but and I
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: think we've had this conversation with you a few times
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: in terms of what what was she Sherm's one of
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: the things that Richard Sherman did when he was in
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: his prime, when he was at his very best. You
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: just didn't you didn't throw that one exactly, Like a
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: third of the field was taken away from you. And
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: that was really with Witherspoon in a sense that should
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: be the case. But then adding to the fact that
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: you don't know what third that's gonna be, right, like
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: there's an unpredictability, and that the nature of the unpredictability
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: for him kind of plays into it, like where's he
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: where is shirm or where is Witherspoon.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: We don't know. It's a great problem to have. And
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: I listen to Christian Gonzalez.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: Robert Kraft came out on Saturday said he's gonna be
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: the highest paid UH player in franchise history for the
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: New England Patriots. Does he get one dollar more than Witherspoon,
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: who signs first? They have the same agent.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: Kind of a weird little deal, it is. They both
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: they both practice this weekend. You know, give them both credit,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: Give me agent credit. They both practice this weekend. Uh
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: so who but who makes more money? Does it even matter?
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Because the second another contract comes up for a corner,
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: someone else is gonna make more money, right right? Because
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: I think McDuffie's the number one guy right now?
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Am I not?
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: Abe Lucas is on the field, asy and gentlemen, number
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: he's number two on the field, all right, corpra is
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: the second guy on the field today. Who's the first guy?
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: I can't too who that is? Might be a royal? Yeah, yeah,
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: no jersey and guy first guy with a jersey on
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: the field. Abe Lucas, gokuz not even a surprise he's
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: out there, just you know what he's doing. I look
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: at him. He's grumbled and he's mumbled. He's mad at
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: the world, probably because he had to go on the
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: show this morning with with Chuck and Hugh. So he's mad. No,
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: I kid, I kid.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: I thought he was the first guest to say had
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: this morning.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I think I think. You know, we'll keep
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: it eye Witherspoon, I mean, who knows. I just thought
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: I was impressive as hell that both him gets all
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: his practice this weekend.
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: That you know, I'm sitting in.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: A spot where I can remember watching Earl Thomas in
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: his hold in, just standing there, jersey on, arms folded,
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: bucket hat on. He's here, but he's not you know now, Cam,
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: when he held out, he just wasn't here. Yeah, Cam,
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: just like you know what, man, peace out.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: I'll see you.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: I'll see you after the second game of the year
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: we get boat raced by a Green Bay, I'll see
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: you then, which is what happened, right, And then they
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: ended up signing him. But yeah, it's to see those
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: guys practicing is impressive. All right, We'll take a break,
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: come back. Let's tell you about who the rookies are
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: to watch in training camp. We'll do that coming up next.
• 39:08
  Speaker 7: Now from the Star Rentals Sports to us Jordan ninety
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: three point three KJRFMS Sports Headlines.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: Headlines are brought to you by Frost Brewed Cores Light
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: Choose Chill. We're choosing chill with a little breeze coming
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: off Lake Washington. Here at the Virginia Mason Athletics Center,
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Day three of Seahawk training camp. First name, without fans,
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: No fans here, just us US media knuckleheads are out
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: here getting ready to watch practice, which will begin in
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: about ten minutes time. Nothing really new to report here.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: Big news over the weekend. I should mention though, and
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: there's some good news. We all heard about Nick even
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: Warri last week and we're like, what the hell surgery?
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: Mike mcdonald' very non committal when pressed by your own
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: Greg Bell on four different occasions about is he gonna
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: be ready for the opener? He wouldn't give us a
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: yes or a no, Mike McDonald that is. But what
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: we're hearing is he should be ready for the opener.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: Here's the good news on the injury front. We rolled
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: out here on Saturday afternoon, looked out and saw a
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: guy wearing the number fifteen on the field for the
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: first time in forever. Tory Horton no pup healthy, went
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: basically full tilt on Saturday. Kind of worked on the
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: side yesterday, but Tory Horton not on the pup and
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: that's great news for the Seahawks as they started training
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: camp to add to that offense, which was the highest
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: scoring offense in franchise history last year. Sad news from
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: the NFL in a couple fronts Eric Bienemy the OC
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: with Kansas City back there in Kansas City. Remember he's
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: gone for a few years. His son shot his wife
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: this morning. She seems to be okay relatively speaking, but
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: not a good situation. There be enemy away from the team.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: We also found out over the weekend that Kyle Shanahan,
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: the head coach of the San Francisco forty nine ers,
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: involved in a car accident that somehow went unreported for
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: ten days. All those insiders at ESPN, they couldn't figure
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: that out. Shifter, they knew. There's a lot of people
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: asking about the cover up. There's no cover up. Sounds
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: like there's no alcohol drug involved, just a bad car accident.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Sad news for him because he is out of training camp.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: He's there, but on the sideline.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Their assistant head coach and offensive line coach is taking
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: over in the intrum. But concussion, broken ribs, pretty severe
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: injuries for Kyle Shanahan. So hopefully listen you you want
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: to see some guys get back out there, and hopefully
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: he's okay very very soon as well. Uh, Anders, your
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: Sounders lost again over the weekend. Yes, it shut out
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: by Philadelphia one nil, and I'm told Philadelphia is not good?
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: Is that true?
• 41:27
  Speaker 8: That is correct, sir? Either of the Sounders right now?
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: Schmetz. What's going on?
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: Franchise? It doesn't happen with that franchise, does not. It
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: just doesn't happen, dude, does not, does.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: Not happen with that franchise at all. All right, let's
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: move into our number.
• 41:44
  Speaker 7: Two backs at the Virginia Mason Athletics Center and our
• 41:50
  Speaker 7: special coverage of Seahawks training camp, brought to you by
• 41:53
  Speaker 7: the Boeing Classic Sports Radio three kJ r FM.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: We will hear from Dante Fowler in this hour. I
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: believe probably around one forty five. Perhaps Dante Fowler didn't
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: practice Saturday practice yesterday. McDonald said on Saturday that he's
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: just guy. They're kind of kind of taking it slow,
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: but happy where he's at. The fact he's not on
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: PUP is good. Is mentioned Tory Horton not on PUP.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: That's really good news. I was one of the best news.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: We came out here Saturday seeing fifteen running around. There
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: are just thirteen rookies on the ninety man roster. That
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: is a very small class. McDonald talk about it on
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: Saturday to us. He just said, yeah, goes, We've got
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: a really small rookie class. Admittedly so very small. Five
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: undrafted free agents for a franchise that has really since
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: John Snodder got here in twenty ten, made a living
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: off of finding those diamonds in the rough every year
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: with right undrafted free agents. Only five of those guys
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: this year eight draft picks. And I went through a
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: minute ago with Andrews and I was sitting here with Corbin.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: I don't know, man, I mean Price, Clark, Neil, those
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: guys are obviously locks.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: After that, there ain't no guarantees.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: There's just there's no guarantees in terms of who's gonna
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: get I mean, third round pick. You're on the team.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: That's Julian Neil. He's going to play on this team.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: Both Steve is a fifth round pick and then the
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: sixth round pick is Emmanuel Henderson Junior, Andre Fo, Devin
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: Eastern and Michael Dansby. Those the wrest of those guys
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: heart battle for those guys to find a roster spot.
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: They're just aren't many spots up for competition on the
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: fifty three man. Let's refresh everyone's memory though, and talk
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: about that draft class. Our man rober Rang joined us
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: the other day, talked about how things are going, and
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: I asked him how he's doing.
• 43:28
  Speaker 6: I'm doing great. It's good to talk to you again.
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: Listen and big thanks. Our friends at Farellies are back
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: on this year. I should mention they just opened up
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: a brand new location in Enham Claw. It's out there
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: right next to the fairgrounds and I think there might
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: be is a rodeo this weekend. Maybe it was last weekend,
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: but right next to the fairgrounds, right close to the
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: golf course and Eatam Claw in the Claw as we
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: call it, and next to the football high school football
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: stadium as well, I think called Petspool. It is a
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: great location, great facility. I go to the Maple Valley
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: one but I did check out the one in Edham
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: Claws sensational. Rob goes one down in not tom Water.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: Where do you go Water?
• 44:03
  Speaker 11: Okay, Tumwater, Yeah, Tomwater, Lacey, Tacoma, at every every place
• 44:08
  Speaker 11: I can find it for really, as I'm.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: Going I love it. I love it.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: We're excited to have them back this year and Rob
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: as well. During the football season college season, every Friday,
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: for those that are new, Rob comes on. We talk
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: about the big college games coming up that weekend and
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: some of the draft prospects to talk about as well.
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: Today I wanted to get robbed. I want to get
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: you on today just to look ahead. Training camp starting
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: tomorrow Monday will be out there. We'll be talking about
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: a lot of these young guys for the Seahawks as
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: we go to training camp. What I wanted to get
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: with you with is let's kind of revisit the draft class,
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: but also just some of the other rookies that I
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: know when you're out there, whether it's for for foxsports
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: dot Com, for Kjar or for your other gig as
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: a BC Lions guy, is who is some of the
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: guys you know you're keeping an eye on that. Maybe
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: we'll fly to the radar as a dish. You know,
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: jen aium price for sure, Judarium price for sure, but others.
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: But we'll go through that class in a second. The
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: first thing that jumped out at me, though, Rob, is
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: this the ninety man roster. Thirteen of the ninety are rookies.
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: That seems like a fairly small number compared to years past,
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: and certainly in terms of undrafted free agents. What is
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: that only five or six undrafted free agents. That's that's
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: very strange for this team, isn't.
• 45:21
  Speaker 6: It It is?
• 45:23
  Speaker 11: I mean, it's almost minuscule compared to what we've seen
• 45:26
  Speaker 11: in the past and the John Schneider era with the Seahawks.
• 45:30
  Speaker 11: You know, they have had such great track record of
• 45:34
  Speaker 11: bringing in undrafted free agents or late round draft picks
• 45:38
  Speaker 11: and making the roster and in some cases becoming the
• 45:40
  Speaker 11: absolute stars. And you know, I think one of the
• 45:44
  Speaker 11: latest examples of that is we just think of last
• 45:47
  Speaker 11: year's team. Now, grad these weren't rookies, but they were
• 45:50
  Speaker 11: undrafted free agents, but they became starters in a Jalen
• 45:54
  Speaker 11: Sendell at center.
• 45:55
  Speaker 6: A Tayakatta at safety. You know, they.
• 45:59
  Speaker 11: Were really important parts of the team this year. However,
• 46:04
  Speaker 11: you know, you are talking about the defending Super Bowl champions,
• 46:08
  Speaker 11: So jobs are going to be difficult to come by.
• 46:09
  Speaker 11: And I think that the representatives for all of these
• 46:13
  Speaker 11: players of this recently concluded draft, if they weren't selected
• 46:17
  Speaker 11: by the Seahawks, and I think that they were thinking, hey,
• 46:19
  Speaker 11: you know, the Seahawks only lost five players really from
• 46:22
  Speaker 11: their from their Super Bowl run. There's just not going
• 46:24
  Speaker 11: to be that many jobs. And so I think that's
• 46:26
  Speaker 11: one of the reasons why you see the lesser numbers.
• 46:29
  Speaker 11: And I think that John Schneider and his team basically
• 46:33
  Speaker 11: anticipated as much and that's one of the biggest reasons
• 46:36
  Speaker 11: team why they traded as much as they did on
• 46:38
  Speaker 11: Day three and you know, acquired the draft picks to
• 46:40
  Speaker 11: get those players into camp, because that's the life blow
• 46:44
  Speaker 11: of every franchise. You've got to have good young players
• 46:46
  Speaker 11: on the on the up, on the rise. And they
• 46:49
  Speaker 11: were able to do that without relying on the undrafted
• 46:51
  Speaker 11: free agents in the past.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and as mentioned, I mean they only have one, two,
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: three is six. I think they only have six undrafted
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: free agents one two, three, just one two, three, five
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: five undrafted free agency that are on the ninety man
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: roster right now let's just talk about some of the
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: draft picks and kind of revisit that a little bit,
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: and we'll start with Jadarian Price, the first round pick,
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: thirty second overall in the draft, running back out of
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame. You were really high on him going into
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: the draft. He's available at thirty two. They took him
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: on draft night, We talked about it. You were high
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: on him then, even though he never started in college.
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: What do you want to see from him during training
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: camp and the preseason.
• 47:29
  Speaker 11: I want to see improvement in the passing game, not
• 47:32
  Speaker 11: only as a as a pass catcher. I think that
• 47:35
  Speaker 11: that he showed plenty in his limited opportunities as a
• 47:38
  Speaker 11: pass catcher at Notre Dame. You know, he only had
• 47:41
  Speaker 11: about a dozen catches, but he uh, you know, I
• 47:44
  Speaker 11: want to see more improvement in pass protection. You know,
• 47:49
  Speaker 11: obviously he was a kick returner, and so you know,
• 47:52
  Speaker 11: I feel confident that he has the hands, uh to
• 47:55
  Speaker 11: be able to handle that role in Brian Fleury's offense.
• 47:58
  Speaker 11: But you know, we talked about this so many times
• 48:01
  Speaker 11: over the years in that running backs at the college level,
• 48:06
  Speaker 11: high school level, they're they're being paid essentially at this
• 48:09
  Speaker 11: point to run the ball crazy thoughts and not be
• 48:13
  Speaker 11: in pass protection. And so that's one of the things
• 48:15
  Speaker 11: that Price is going to have to prove that he
• 48:17
  Speaker 11: can handle because the backs that he is replacing, whether
• 48:21
  Speaker 11: it be can't walker the third. Certainly Zach Charbonnay, even
• 48:23
  Speaker 11: George Hailani, they all showed that they could handle that responsibility.
• 48:29
  Speaker 11: And so if he's going to get himself onto the field,
• 48:31
  Speaker 11: then he's going to have to be good at What's
• 48:33
  Speaker 11: interesting about Jadarian Price is that this is not a
• 48:37
  Speaker 11: dynamic athlete.
• 48:39
  Speaker 6: I mean, can't walk of the third.
• 48:40
  Speaker 11: You could just see the explosiveness in just a way
• 48:44
  Speaker 11: that he moved, So I thought that, you know, immediately
• 48:47
  Speaker 11: he was going to get a whole bunch of the
• 48:49
  Speaker 11: Luki Lou fans from the Burm to get excited about him.
• 48:53
  Speaker 11: Whereas a Jenarian Price, he doesn't have that that same kind.
• 48:56
  Speaker 6: Of elite speed.
• 48:57
  Speaker 11: He is faster as a football player than he is
• 49:01
  Speaker 11: on the track. He ran a four four nine, which
• 49:03
  Speaker 11: is plenty fast enough on the track, but wait till
• 49:06
  Speaker 11: you see him actually when the when the pads are on,
• 49:09
  Speaker 11: when when the defenses trying to actually tackle players, that's
• 49:13
  Speaker 11: when you're gonna see Judari and Price and how he's special.
• 49:16
  Speaker 11: I feel very confident that when it's all said and
• 49:19
  Speaker 11: downe Jedari and Price, you know what have justifying the
• 49:21
  Speaker 11: number thirty two overall selection, He's going to Becole's runaway
• 49:25
  Speaker 11: leading rusher as a rookie.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: Corbyn, you've heard of this name before. Corbyn Smith is
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: his name. I think you might be vaguely familiar with him.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: We talked about him. He said the same thing. It
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: says like he's football fast, He's not necessarily track fast.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: But he talked about his vision. Is that what jumped
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: out at you when you watched him as just his vision?
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: And how does that fit with this scheme?
• 49:44
  Speaker 6: Do you think?
• 49:46
  Speaker 11: Yeah, vision and anticipation, Uh, you know the the vision
• 49:50
  Speaker 11: of course, it's just basically when the running back gets
• 49:52
  Speaker 11: the ball, then can they see where the hole is developing?
• 49:55
  Speaker 11: And if it's not there, then do they know where
• 49:58
  Speaker 11: to look next?
• 50:00
  Speaker 6: And that's one of the.
• 50:00
  Speaker 11: Things about Price that I saw that has me really
• 50:04
  Speaker 11: excited about him in this fit in the wide zone
• 50:07
  Speaker 11: offense that I think that Brian Flurry is going to
• 50:10
  Speaker 11: focus in on, Mike McDonald said, is that they are
• 50:14
  Speaker 11: going to be sprinkling in a little bit more gap,
• 50:16
  Speaker 11: and I think that that's a good thing, just because
• 50:19
  Speaker 11: I think at Seattle's one of their strengths now of
• 50:22
  Speaker 11: their offensive line, or one of the strengths of their team,
• 50:25
  Speaker 11: excuse me, is their offensive line, and that's just been
• 50:28
  Speaker 11: so rare in the past. So I do think that
• 50:30
  Speaker 11: you can sprinkle in a little bit more power that
• 50:33
  Speaker 11: gap scheme, and I think that either way, Price's ability
• 50:36
  Speaker 11: to hit the hole quickly and efficiently, I think it's
• 50:40
  Speaker 11: going to make him a beautiful fit. What I really
• 50:43
  Speaker 11: like about him, and we talked about this a little
• 50:45
  Speaker 11: bit throughout the pre draft process, is that you know,
• 50:48
  Speaker 11: he knows when his zig when everybody else is zagging.
• 50:50
  Speaker 11: So when you see a linebacker or a defensive back
• 50:52
  Speaker 11: who is you know, just screaming upfield or screaming downfield
• 50:56
  Speaker 11: to try to get to the line of scrimmage and
• 50:59
  Speaker 11: be able to stop the running back, he is already
• 51:01
  Speaker 11: kind of setting up his cut. He really you hear
• 51:05
  Speaker 11: this analogy of chess, you know, making a move, you know,
• 51:08
  Speaker 11: countery moves and anticipating moves, making moves two.
• 51:11
  Speaker 6: Three steps ahead ahead.
• 51:14
  Speaker 11: That's one of the things that Price does I thought
• 51:16
  Speaker 11: better than any other running back in.
• 51:18
  Speaker 6: Last year's class entirely.
• 51:20
  Speaker 11: It's including Jeremiah Love, of course, who number three overall
• 51:23
  Speaker 11: to the Arizona Cardinals. Unbelievable talent Jeremiah loved, but not
• 51:27
  Speaker 11: as not as instinctive of the running back. And that's
• 51:31
  Speaker 11: the biggest reason why I've been using this comparison to
• 51:34
  Speaker 11: the Hall of Famer Terrell Davis, who ran in the
• 51:36
  Speaker 11: four sixes, you know, back when he came out of
• 51:39
  Speaker 11: college and to Georgia all those years ago.
• 51:41
  Speaker 6: But he just played the game so quickly.
• 51:44
  Speaker 11: It's almost a way that JSN runs the route and
• 51:47
  Speaker 11: that you know again, another guy who ran a four
• 51:49
  Speaker 11: or five to two at the forty r dash but
• 51:51
  Speaker 11: plays the game so fast, Jim Playing Jordiim Price plays
• 51:55
  Speaker 11: the game fast as well.
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with this because some other guys I
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: want to talk about some of the end to guys
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: maybe in a second two, but I want to I
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: want to kind of give it a dealer's choice here.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: Bud Clark the safety, Julian Neil the corner, both Stevens
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: the guard. Those are the next few picks that they took,
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: and that gets us through the fifth round. The rest
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: of everybody else is a sixth or seventh round pick.
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: So Clark, Neil Stevens, of those guys, who really are
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: you most intrigued by, most interested in, and most curious
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: about in terms of how camp and the preseason is
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: going to go.
• 52:26
  Speaker 6: Well, I think that you got to go with Bud Clark.
• 52:28
  Speaker 11: I mean, obviously he was a second round selection, so
• 52:31
  Speaker 11: in one way that is kind of little hanging fruit.
• 52:34
  Speaker 11: I also think that he is the rookie along with
• 52:36
  Speaker 11: Price that is most likely to see significant playing time
• 52:40
  Speaker 11: this upcoming season. Ian Look, I'm fascinated by Julian Neil
• 52:44
  Speaker 11: the cornerback. I think the guy is the biggest position
• 52:46
  Speaker 11: of concern right now for the Sea just in terms
• 52:50
  Speaker 11: of depth, right But I think with Bud Clark just
• 52:53
  Speaker 11: his positional versatility. He played an awful lot of that
• 52:56
  Speaker 11: deep free safety, but a lot of nickel at Ta
• 53:00
  Speaker 11: see you in the ball skills. I just think about
• 53:02
  Speaker 11: all of the great defensive backs on the Seahawks roster,
• 53:06
  Speaker 11: the one thing that's kind of lacking is ball skills.
• 53:09
  Speaker 11: Rak Wollen was the flashy interceptor of years ago. Kobe
• 53:13
  Speaker 11: Bryant has shown that ability as well, and obviously both
• 53:17
  Speaker 11: of those players are no longer members of the Seahawks.
• 53:19
  Speaker 11: Devin Wetherspoon, as great as he is, has not been
• 53:22
  Speaker 11: a big interception guy.
• 53:23
  Speaker 6: Same with Nicky Moan worry.
• 53:25
  Speaker 11: So I just think that Bud Clark, you sprinkle in
• 53:28
  Speaker 11: his his instincts, his hands, his makeup speed, and in
• 53:33
  Speaker 11: his height. I mean, he really is able to climb
• 53:37
  Speaker 11: the ladder and snatch the ball in its highest point.
• 53:41
  Speaker 11: And so I think that that is going to be
• 53:43
  Speaker 11: a skill set that Mike McGonnell is going to find
• 53:45
  Speaker 11: a way to take full advantage of this season.
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: It's interesting you mentioned Price and Clark. You guys had
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: the chance to get on the field. Bigger picture, just
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: frow it back to some of the rookies that we're watching.
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: Does that not just speak to how strong this roster
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: is that there's really very little room for any first
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: year guys outside of the running back and potentially one
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: of the two dbs to make a big impact this year.
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: Doesn't that just speak to the strength of the roster
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: of that John Schneider and his staff have built.
• 54:14
  Speaker 6: It really does?
• 54:14
  Speaker 10: I mean?
• 54:15
  Speaker 11: It just this is a the best young team in
• 54:19
  Speaker 11: the NFL. And you know, it goes not saying I mean,
• 54:21
  Speaker 11: you just won Super Bowl. Of course, of course you're
• 54:23
  Speaker 11: the best team, but to to win the Super Bowl
• 54:26
  Speaker 11: and then have as as few players leave the upcoming season,
• 54:32
  Speaker 11: you know, that really is a unique.
• 54:33
  Speaker 6: And then so many of the.
• 54:35
  Speaker 11: Of your best players are also some of your youngest players.
• 54:38
  Speaker 11: You know, the ringing offensive Player of the Year, and
• 54:40
  Speaker 11: Jackson Smith and Jigbas twenty four years old, and you know,
• 54:43
  Speaker 11: Devin Witherspoon, Nicki min Wore, you know, and then their
• 54:46
  Speaker 11: early twenties. The offensive line is all twenty seven years
• 54:50
  Speaker 11: old or younger, and there's just such skilled talent and
• 54:55
  Speaker 11: such youth that to me, it's it really is exciting.
• 54:58
  Speaker 11: I mean, I you know, we we get caught up
• 55:00
  Speaker 11: sometimes and being homers and all that kind of stuff
• 55:04
  Speaker 11: in the recency bias, but there's every reason to suggest
• 55:08
  Speaker 11: that this is the potential dynasty here, just because again,
• 55:12
  Speaker 11: so much young talent at some of the most premium
• 55:16
  Speaker 11: positions and still on relatively cheap contracts. So it's like
• 55:21
  Speaker 11: going back and rewind here a little bit and thinking
• 55:23
  Speaker 11: about the legion of Boom and just recognizing just how
• 55:26
  Speaker 11: dominant they were going to be that's the thing. This
• 55:29
  Speaker 11: dark side defense and some of the skill position talent
• 55:32
  Speaker 11: that they have on offense as well, really does sit
• 55:35
  Speaker 11: the Seahawks up for quite the run.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: Somebody said the other day I was talking to something
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: or saw this from somebody, like, well, you know, Bo
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: Stevens with the fifth round pick, the guard out of
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: Aisle was a little bit of a disappointment in OTA's
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: and mini camps. And I'm saying, like, what are you
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: talking about, Like it's now and then I thought, well,
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: it's because of the rotation.
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: He was like third string. I think it best.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: Ever, during some of those those summer camp, those summer workouts,
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking, well, first of all, he's a fifth round pick.
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: The pads aren't on, you can't do too much. So
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: I would reserve judgment on anybody saying that, hey, boast,
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: I want to see both Stevens when the pads go
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: on the one to one pass brush drills, and I think,
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: help me out here. Rob Bo Stevens is probably it's
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: probably big for him to see what happens during the preseason.
• 56:18
  Speaker 11: Oh, no question about it. I just look, I'm very
• 56:22
  Speaker 11: high on Boa Stevens. I believe that he can be
• 56:23
  Speaker 11: a starter in the NFL. I just think that there's
• 56:25
  Speaker 11: two guards ahead of him that are at right guard
• 56:30
  Speaker 11: that are also quality starters in the NFL. And I
• 56:33
  Speaker 11: know that Anthony Bradford is a is a player that
• 56:36
  Speaker 11: you know when he makes a mistake, it is he's
• 56:38
  Speaker 11: so large and some of his mistakes are so obvious
• 56:42
  Speaker 11: that you know he's going to draw the rap of
• 56:44
  Speaker 11: Seahawks fans forever and ever.
• 56:46
  Speaker 6: But the reality is that he's entering the.
• 56:49
  Speaker 11: Final year of his contract and whether it be at
• 56:51
  Speaker 11: the Seahawks or some other NFL team next year when
• 56:53
  Speaker 11: he gets a ten plus million dollars pay day, you know,
• 56:58
  Speaker 11: first season after this upcimmency, and then you're gonna see
• 57:02
  Speaker 11: that the NFL clearly values him.
• 57:04
  Speaker 6: And so again, Anthony Browd.
• 57:06
  Speaker 11: For somebody who's talked about a lot, the young men
• 57:08
  Speaker 11: I want to talk about is Bryce Cable dude, And
• 57:11
  Speaker 11: I was really impressed with what I saw from him
• 57:14
  Speaker 11: a season ago.
• 57:14
  Speaker 6: He had previously played right tackle at.
• 57:16
  Speaker 11: Kansas and then asked him to play inside of it
• 57:20
  Speaker 11: at left guard and right guard position. So he's shown
• 57:22
  Speaker 11: the ability to play in either side of the line.
• 57:25
  Speaker 11: He's a guard in the NFL, not a tackle. He
• 57:27
  Speaker 11: doesn't have the elite length, kind of like the afore mentioned
• 57:30
  Speaker 11: Bo Stevens.
• 57:31
  Speaker 6: That's the only knock that you have on him.
• 57:32
  Speaker 11: But I really like Cable News athletic ability even more
• 57:36
  Speaker 11: so than Stevens, and so to me, it's not that
• 57:38
  Speaker 11: I'm not high on Bo Stevens. I'm just very very
• 57:41
  Speaker 11: high on Bryce Cable Doo, and I think when it's
• 57:44
  Speaker 11: all said and done, doesn't really matter. Anthony Bradford's going
• 57:46
  Speaker 11: to be your start at the right guard position, grays
• 57:48
  Speaker 11: Abel's going to be your start at the left guard position,
• 57:50
  Speaker 11: and everything else is going to work itself out in
• 57:52
  Speaker 11: the wash.
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: Rob rang Bright to By Ferrelli's pizza for Alispizza dot
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: com for a location near you in the South Sound area.
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about some of the guys he didn't talk
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: about on that the eighty five hours or whatever it
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: was of draft coverage we had out there at the
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: Virginia based Athletics Center in late April. And I want
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: to start with a guy that when they signed him,
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: I think you right away. You and I talked about
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: him the following Monday. Marvin Jones Junior is a linebacker.
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: Out of Oklahoma and they signed him as an undrafted
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: free agent. A we're number fifty nine in camp. I
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: think you liked this player, right.
• 58:23
  Speaker 11: Well, I just love I love the bloodlines, I love
• 58:25
  Speaker 11: the potential. You know, this is a guy who was
• 58:29
  Speaker 11: as hyped as you possibly can get because his father
• 58:32
  Speaker 11: was number four overall selection all about twenty five years
• 58:35
  Speaker 11: ago or so to the New York Jets, Marvin Jones.
• 58:38
  Speaker 11: And he was an absolutely dynamic player, and Marvin Jones
• 58:42
  Speaker 11: Junior has you know, just kind of failed to live
• 58:45
  Speaker 11: up to all of the hype so far.
• 58:47
  Speaker 6: He's bounced around.
• 58:48
  Speaker 11: He was at Oklahoma, he was at that's where he
• 58:52
  Speaker 11: came from most recently, but began his career I believe
• 58:55
  Speaker 11: it was at Georgia and they went to Florida State
• 58:58
  Speaker 11: where his dad played, and it just hasn't clicked for him.
• 59:01
  Speaker 11: But my goodness, there's expression that some of the scouts use.
• 59:05
  Speaker 11: We say body beautiful. Here's guys that look the part.
• 59:08
  Speaker 11: I mean he's six foot five, he's two hundred and
• 59:11
  Speaker 11: forty five pounds.
• 59:11
  Speaker 6: I mean he is just as cut up as it
• 59:14
  Speaker 6: as it gets.
• 59:14
  Speaker 11: You see the initial quickness, you see some flexibility, you
• 59:18
  Speaker 11: see some power.
• 59:18
  Speaker 6: You just don't see all three at the same time. Uh.
• 59:22
  Speaker 11: And so that's one of the things I think the
• 59:24
  Speaker 11: Seahawks just see a player that's that's got all the
• 59:26
  Speaker 11: traits in the world, and they're just waiting for something
• 59:29
  Speaker 11: to click. And I think, again, with all of the
• 59:31
  Speaker 11: talent that Seattle has, it's kind of a pressure off type.
• 59:34
  Speaker 6: Of a situation if I think that he is.
• 59:37
  Speaker 11: A perfect practice squad candidate and somebody who you know
• 59:41
  Speaker 11: is a little bit of a lottery ticket Franklin.
• 59:43
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: The other un drafts of free agents Eighten Hubbards, a
• 59:46
  Speaker 2: linebacker at Northwestern USO. Ciamalo is a nose tackle out
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: of Kansas State. He's large, six three three thirty mentioned Jones,
• 59:54
  Speaker 2: Lance Mason, a tight end out of Wisconsin, and Rashad
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: Rochelle out of Indiana State. Any of those guys Ones
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: You're gonna keep an eye on. They think you have
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 2: a chance to maybe find a practice squad or a
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: long shot to make a team.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 11: Oh you know me, I mean, and they're all interesting
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 11: guys in a lot of ways.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 6: I think that just the.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 11: Contrast with Aiden Hubbard compared to what we just talked
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 11: about with Marvin Jones Junior. Marvin Jones junior game is
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 11: gonna be wearing. I believe he said number fifty nine.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 11: And with Aidan Hubbard, you look at number ninety three.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 11: He's six foot four, he's two hundred and sixty pounds.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 11: He's just a little bit shorter, a little bit squattier,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 11: much more powerful, much more technically refined, and you know,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 11: a more instinctive player. He is not the flashy athlete,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 11: doesn't have those the DNA the NFL teams are looking for,
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 11: like Marvin Jones junior. But he's just a better football
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 11: player at this point. So he is certainly somebody number
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 11: ninety three. I'm gonna be watching just to see how
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 11: that see how it lignes him. For one, if he
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 11: is gonna be kind of a stand up rush linebacker.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 11: He is not an elite athlete, but my goodness, he
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 11: closed as well again his physicality, So he's certainly.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 6: Somebody I'm excited about.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 11: And then you mentioned that my favorite big guy this
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 11: draft class for the Seahawks in terms of the big
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 11: defensive line, devinie Eastern, of.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 6: Course, is a with a draft pick.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 11: He's on the pupp list, and I'm fascinating to see
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 11: what happens with him. But LUSI Samalo six foot three,
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 11: three and thirty pounds.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 6: Man.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 11: You know, we talk a lot about how Seattle has
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 11: kind of been interchangeably moving some of these nose guards.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 6: It is like Brandon Peely has been around forever, and he's.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 11: Certainly made some praise when he's had his opportunities. But
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 11: sam olow Was is a younger, cheaper player, and I
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 11: think that he's going to play a very similar role.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 11: And I was impressed during the rookie minicamps. I thought
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 11: that this is not just a slug. I mean a
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 11: lot of times you get guys are three and thirty pounds.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 11: It's all they can do is is basically hold the point.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 6: He could do a little bit more. He should have.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 11: I wouldn't call it, you know, sideline to sideline speed certainly,
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 11: but it was tackled speed. He could get down the
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 11: line and make himself a nuisance as well. He's not
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 11: going to ever be a sack guy in terms of
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 11: gaining pressure on the quarterback, but he certainly can clog
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 11: things up in the middle and he does his job,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 11: and I think that's something that's going to prioritize.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: Well, once you're out there laying eyes on guys, and
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: once we get closer and into the maybe the preseason game,
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: we'll definitely have to check back and see how guys
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: are progressing. And it is just wild to think like
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: a franchise that has made its hey so often. You
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: mentioned the two recent Socata Sundell on undrafted free agents,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: Curse Baldwin, go through all the list over the years,
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: there's been so many and yet this year there's only
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: five of those guys in camp, only only thirteen total
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: rookies of the eight draft picks. It's just it's kind
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: of it's it speaks volumes to how strong this team
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: is in terms of being built. And then you got,
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: like you mentioned the guys like Bryce Cable do that
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: was second year guys. I mean that that second year
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: You've talked about it often, Rob, the second year. A
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: lot of times we see those guys take that next
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: step along the way and we'll see what happens. So
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of football that we talked. This is
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: only day one Tomorrow, Day one of training camp begins.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: We're out there on Monday, and my man Rob rang
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: is on speed dial and you know, my friend, we
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: will be calling you often as we get through the process.

• 1:04:07
  Speaker 7: Center and our special coverage of Seahawks training camp, brought
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 7: to you by the Boeing Classic Sports three KJR FM.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 2: Alright at the FAFTA one thirty one thirty two to
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: be exact, here the Virginia Mason Athletics Show the shores
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 2: of Lake Washington. The breeze is god. This is an
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: absolutely picture perfect day in Seattle and the Seattle area.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: Obviously we're in renting, but no fans day, which is
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: unfortunate because this is a day if a fan was here,
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: the burn would be perfect, the breeze blowing off the
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 2: lake because it's andres You know, you can get hot
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: out here. It will, and it will before it's all
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: said and done, it'll get hot. But it's it's this
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: is a perfect day out here in Seattle. We're gonna
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: hear from Dante Fowler coming up in the next segment
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: about one five, and he just spoke to the media
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: inside the IPF a moment ago.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: We got that sound far.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: We'll hear from one of the newest Seahawks as he
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: comes into the organization, and Mike McDonald very effusive in
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: his praise for him. The other day, which was good.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: So we'll hear that coming up in just a couple
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 2: of minutes. Nothing really to report. They just got on
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: the field. They just started breaking into position groups for
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: drills a second ago, so we'll see if there's anything newsworthy,
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: note worthy out there. I think Ernest Jones might be
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: having a little bit of a veteran's day and he's
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: just kind of wandering out right now.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: So and they do that. They manage the guys very
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: very well in that regard.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: I didn't want today to go by without mentioning something because,
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: and like Anders and many and many of you, probably
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: the vast majority of you listening, we grew up in
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: this area. Whether it was in Seattle itself or a suburb,
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: it doesn't matter, as Seattle's the hub, but I mean
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: it's this, This is our home. This region is something
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: we feel very strongly about. I grew up in Seattle.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: I grew up basically split my childhood between living in
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: queen Anna and Magnolia, and spent a lot of time
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: as a youth at the Seattle Center Softly, and I
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: talked about it often, the old fun forest and and
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: and things like that, the old what now is the Armory,
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: the old food circus they used to call it. Spent
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: a lot of time there, and I will say that
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: over the years, there's been a lot of things that
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: have taken place in our city that have have given
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 2: us a given us a given us a black eye,
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: given us a given us just kind of a feeling
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: that that didn't make didn't make us feel right. Last
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: night was way well past that. Last night a mass
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: shooting at the bite of Seattle. We are coming off
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 2: a month where our city, in my opinion, and I
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: think the opinion is shared by many, our city, our
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: region has never.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: Looked better.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: A time in which we have been so critical of
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: so many things in our area, our state, where our
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: state's been divided in so many ways down party lines,
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: left right. You believe in this, I hate this, I
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 2: don't like this guy. The vitriol that we all spew
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 2: me included towards many of our city, state, county government leaders.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: We all kind of put that aside during the World Cup,
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 2: and boy, I think we all felt like we took
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: this massive step forward in how our city and our
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: region is perceived. And then the tragedy that took place
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: last night on the grounds at the Seattle Center where
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: Climate Pledge Arena is Key or Ino once stood before that.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: The Seattle Center Coliseum and the Mercer Arena Memorial Stadium
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: is being rebuilt, not renovated, rebuilt, demolished. In the process
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: of rebuilding. Well, that construction is put on hold in
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: a positive out of respect for what happened yesterday. Seven
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: people show at least three now dead confirmed dead, one
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 2: person at last report arrested. Fifteen years old, fifteen. This
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 2: sad day for our city. It's a sad day for
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 2: our region. Sports bring us together, and that part of
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: our city brings us and has brought us together so
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: often over the years. I kind of always felt like
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: it was Howell Ground, you know, growing up and going
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: to Sonics games and Seattle Totems games other events, the
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 2: Coliseum and later Key Arena, going and working and calling
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: games for the Thunderbirds the old Mercer Arena. Spent so
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 2: much time in that area, and I remember early years
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: of by to Seattle going down there with friends and
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: what a cool event. That was just an amazing event.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 2: This event this year was already tarnished early on by
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: the rising prices that were being charged to vendors, the
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: vast majority of vendors not even from here, the organizers
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: of the event taking a twenty five to thirty percent
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: cut off the top, and we've kind of felt, well,
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: that's the worst part about it. Great food trucks, great
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: vendors locally decided to tap out and not going and thinking, well,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: that's that's that's the downside. No one thought that it
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 2: could get worse than it did. It's a sad day.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 2: It's a really sad day. The Storm play there tomorrow
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: and the Kraken play there coming up in about a
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: month and a half.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: It's still, I believe, a safe place.
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 2: I think this police told us that last night, that
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: shooting that took place basically a gunfight between two people,
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: took the lives of three people and injured four others.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 2: That's not the norm. We don't expect it to be
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: the norm, and we certainly hoping don't ever expect it
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: to happen again. But it did last night, and it
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: has put really a pall, a dark cloud over our
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 2: entire city on this just gorgeous day, Like it's not
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: a cloud in the sky where I'm sitting right now
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: with the breeze bowling in Torchlight Parade Saturday, Seafair Sunday,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: coming out with the Blue Angels later on this week.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: But yet you feel it in the air, the Seahawk
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: twelfth Man flag flying at half masts as I look
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 2: down to my right. I don't remember that happening before,
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 2: if it did rarely, but it basically is a symbol
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: of where we are right now today. And I hope
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: they catch the other person. I hope both are prosecuted
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: to the fullest extent of the law. Those are not
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: the kind of people I don't care what age that
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: should ever be on the street again. And obviously everybody's
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: thoughts go out to those involved and hurt, and not
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 2: just hurt in terms of the shootings, the tragedy that
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: was the killings, but all the people that were there,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: the vendors that did invest in going there and lost
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 2: thousands and thousands of dollars in the area was evacuated
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: as of late this morning, still unable to clean up there.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 2: Just a horrible day for our city. And this isn't
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: about city leadership, this isn't about Seattle police. There are
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: things that are unavoidable in our city and our world
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 2: that was unavoidable last night outside of two young people
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: that just lost their way and lost their way in
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: a massively tragic way. That wasn't about a mayor, a governor,
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: gun laws necessarily, we could go all through that all day.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: It was about two young people that made horrible decisions
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 2: last night, and it cost three people their lives. I
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: hope that those going to the Storm game tomorrow night
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 2: feel safe. I hope those of us going to cracking
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: games later on feel safe. I know I will. I
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 2: trust in the process. But it's just a sad, sad
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: afternoon yesterday in Seattle, and I didn't want today. We're
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: celebrating football, we're celebrating sports, but I'm looking over that
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: flag and I just can't get past it. Man, our
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: city was in such good spirits and such great shape
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: before yesterday after the World Cup. Let's get back to
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 2: where we were before yesterday. We'll hear from Dante Foller next.

  Speaker 12: Welcome to Seattle. I guess we had a chest to
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 12: talk to you. I don't spend a few months, But
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 12: how did it all come up?
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 10: He ended up signing here.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 13: Uh, you know, just talking to ad and uh G

  Speaker 13: He gave me a call and I came up here
• 1:13:14

• 1:13:16
  Speaker 10: It went really well, and we went.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 14: Forward from him, what's your first impressions of that pass
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 14: thrush group and uh of the defense in general.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 10: Uh, I love it.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 13: Just me being a part of a lot of great
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 13: pass rushing groups. It reminds me of like when I
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 13: was with the Jacksonville Jaguars, or like when I was
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 13: playing with the Rams or the Commanders, Like we have
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 13: really good interior guys, great ass rush guys.
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 10: I can get out to the quarterback. So I love
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 10: playing with a.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 13: Group of guys, especially like Lenna Williams, Jaron Ree and uh,
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 13: Brian Murphy and guys like that, and that can be
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 13: able to make.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 10: My job a lot more easier and things like that
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 10: and the inside.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 13: So I could just get a lot of going ons
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 13: with attack there pretty fast.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 10: So I'm looking forward to it. What was the law
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 10: pretty heavy with the recruiting pitch on you kind of
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 10: How was that? Yeah? He was pretty heavy.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 13: He had called me a few times and midday that
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 13: I actually signed, we was talking for like thirty forty
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 13: five minutes, and I was just like, you know what,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 13: I think this is a good fit.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 10: Sorry, rest there.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 14: Julian loved talking yesterday about how important it was that
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 14: all the newcomers get a say in kind of whatever
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 14: the mottos are gonna be or how things are gonna happen,
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 14: not just picking up where they left off. Have you
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 14: felt that where there's a sense of inclusion in how
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 14: you guys were going to operate and what you guys.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 10: Are gonna do.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 13: Yeah, for sure, you're bringing all the new guys in,
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 13: the young guys along really well.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 10: But you know, like I just fall in line and
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 10: do what I'm supposed to do.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 13: They already had a great defense before we got here,
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 13: and they won the Super Bowl.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 10: It was the best defense in a row last year.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 13: So my job was to just fall in line and
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 13: do whatever I gotta do to make this defense upgrading
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 13: a living one.
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 15: You mentioned coach Jurday was heavily involved in trying to
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 15: recruit here. How much has he meant to your career?
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 15: Getting played for him in Dallas and now getting back
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 15: with him here and see.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 10: It meant a lot to me my first time ever.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 13: Uh, he was on the coaching staff when I was
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 13: playing with the Atlanta Falcons and that was.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 10: My first time meeting him.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 13: And then you know, you got his British accent and
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 13: I just remember I was just like, Wow, I would
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 13: have never thought in.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 10: My whole football career I have a coach like him.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 13: But you know, just to see the way he's grown
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 13: throughout his career and him being my defensealon coach at
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 13: the Cowboys to now his role as a defensive coordinator
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 13: here is uh very awesome.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 16: Uh.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 13: A guy that's uh wanna get the best out of
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 13: you no matter what. And that's something I look forward
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 13: to everything.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 10: You you started after the drafts.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 12: I was that kind of the player anyway til after
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 12: the draft and see what would be a good fitter.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 10: I guess.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 13: So you know, I'm talking to them.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 10: They told me, you know, just to you know, they
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 10: were gonna keep in touch with which they did. And
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 10: after the draft he went and they.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 12: Moved and and Mike said, yesterday or a couple of
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 12: days ago, you're in you're in really good shape. R
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 12: Are you any different shape this year? Or he didn't
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 12: think they really getting good shape for her.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 13: I mean the st the the uh strength, uh, the
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 13: strengthen the team here is probably like the best strength
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 13: in the team I've ever been a part of. So
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 13: just to be able to like you know, usually in
• 1:16:07

  Speaker 10: being with the strength coaches and stuff like that. They
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 10: give me a really great shape.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 13: I feel like how I felt when I played in
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 13: uh Washington with the Commanders, Like I just knew I
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 13: was gonna have a great season just because of the
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 13: work that I put in the off season.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 10: How could of uh shape I was. So I feel
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 10: like that.

  Speaker 13: So i'm'a just keep taking it uh a day out
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 13: of time and you know, get ready for some insane.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 11: Speaking of it here in Washington, why do you think
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 11: it went as well as it did.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 10: For you back there?
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 13: To advertend to have sacks up being kind of just
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 13: had like the same form with how it is here.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 10: A good strength coach, team, a good.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 13: Training staff, guys uh to uh to carry mill. Of
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 13: course DQ took care of me and uh the defense.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 13: Uh playing with those guys the way DQ uh you know,
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 13: we put us in a position to make plays and
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 13: stuff like that. So uh it's the same thing here.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 13: A great defensive uh.
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 10: Genius and uh coach like and uh thing like that.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 10: So I'm just looking forward to it with the five
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 10: of just joining a Super Bowl champion, Does it feel different? Yeah, Uh,
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 10: you can see why they wanted the Super Bowl, whether
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 10: it's on and off the field.
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 13: That's actually pretty cool to see the camarati here from
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 13: the top to bottom, uh, front office and the team.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 10: So it's it's really cool. It's a great group of guys.

  Speaker 10: You come in this building happy and you're coming to
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 10: looking forward to going to work.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 13: So when you surround yourself around that type of work environment,
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 13: it just makes a lot of more stuff.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 10: He'sier better for your advantage.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 11: Coach finding hands on was Mike McDonald's, like his approach
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 11: to defense.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 17: Was that a big reason why you wanted to sign here?
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 13: Yeah, for sure, just uh, just the coach he is.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 13: I've kind of been following him since he came to
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 13: the Seahawks and.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 10: Stuff like that.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 13: So he he gives me like a little bit of
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 13: the q qish field.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 10: So uh, you know, he doesn't make it like rocket
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 10: science and stuff like that, even though you know the
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 10: way he called his plays and stuff like it's it's
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 10: pretty crazy. But yeah, the way he's hands all with
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 10: the defense, with his players and his guys, Like.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 13: I really appreciate that, But I had other guys that
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 13: have been here and talked about how it's obvious how
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 13: smart he is, like immediately and how much they think
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 13: as smart.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 10: As any coach they've ever played.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 13: More does that show up like right out of the
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 13: box for you when you're seeing high end Like how
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 13: does that kind of.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 10: Manifest and what you see out of that when you
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 10: kind of get to know anything.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 13: It's good because uh it it brings your u IQ
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 13: level for football up a lot as well.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 10: And you can't you gotta know what you're doing if
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 10: uh with this uh system.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 13: So it makes you, you know, dive in a playbook,
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 13: it makes you dive in extra film and stuff like that,
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 13: cause uh, he takes it.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 10: Really serious and he doesn't like to, you know, repeat
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 10: the same thing he went over again.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 12: How do you look at your you can probably played
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 12: for a while and ben with a a number of
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 12: different teams. How do you kind of look at your
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 12: whole career and kind of like you're still playing at
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 12: that's uh to look over.
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 10: Like my whole career.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 13: I'm I'm I'm blessed at the end of the day, Uh,
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 13: just to be able to play ten plus years in
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 13: the NFL s and and still feel how I feel,
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 13: especially with like the injury I had my first day
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 13: of NFL practice. So just to look back on all
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 13: of that and see where I'm at now, I appreciate it.
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 10: I'm very cultured. I was able to go in experience
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 10: some great cities, great.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 13: People, was able to have a lot of great teammates
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 13: and learn from them.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 10: So I appreciate it.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 13: At the end of the day, I'm a gun from
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 13: Saint Petersburgy, Florida who was.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 10: Thought this was going to be a dream and I'm
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 10: actually living it out. So every day I realized that
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 10: and I'm blessed. Penis position.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: All right, there you go.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 2: Dante Fowler, a twelve year rush end for the Seahawks,
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 2: list as an outside linebacker. I thought the one thing
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 2: that just jumped out there that he said and Andrews
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 2: had a great point. In my ear, he didn't have
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: to say it, kind of unprompted. We was talking about
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 2: the offseason workouts, and he's right. A lot of guys
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: do their own thing, especially a guy if you've been
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 2: in this league and you're established, and again he's twelve.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: Year in the league.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 8: Yeah, you gain the process right.
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 2: He knows the process. He wanted to be here, and
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 2: he was effusive in his praise for the strength staff
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 2: and what they have here at the Seattle Seahawk. Note
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: for you all listening right now, especially those of you
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: that chirp me and get pissed off when I tell
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 2: you what a knucklehead the former quarterback was here. Many
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: of those guys were here then, and they're the ones
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 2: that Russell Wilson was trying to get rid of. I
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: want you to think about that, just for like, just
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 2: so when I and I know a lot of those guys,
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 2: I've been around when I was traveling with those guys.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: You see them all the time on the road. You
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: have a lot of conversations and some good dudes. And
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, like when Russ tried to
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: get rid of them and he didn't win that battle,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 2: well there was a reason. You just heard it from
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: Dante Feller. Yeah, but they have the culture. He talked
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 2: about the culture. Title kind of talked about that earlier.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 2: Everyone's trying to build a culture. I mean, listen, I'll
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: be honest with you. It's what the hockey team's trying
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: to do and trying to figure out how to get
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: it done right. You get that part of your equation
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 2: figured out. Where people want to be here because of
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 2: the culture, because of the locker room.
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 1: How many of us can say we like going to
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: work every day. He talked about like wanting to go.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: Into the There's a lot of dudes that don't like
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 2: to go to football practice every day. Right, He's like, yeah,
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: this is different here, right, interesting stuff. All right, we
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: may have to talk about something that's not too pleasant
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 2: coming up next. That's what Andrews is telling me. We'll
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 2: make that call. We'll make that call. You make the call.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: Who does that?
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: I think that's a softy Thing's a softy thing. Yes, well,
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 2: you make the call. Andrews will do that. In the
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 2: break and come back to Sea HOWK training camp at

  Speaker 8: You're there, That's all he can say.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 2: Right, Well, and I guess like the big news was Saturday,
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 2: Corey Horton not on the pup. That's great news, that's honestly,
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 2: it's a very underrated offense.
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 2: If they're healthy and if they can get something going.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: Vacant and I say replaced ken Walker. Remember ken Walker
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 2: was split carries last year. He was great in the playoffs.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 2: And yeah, well I get that, but I'm okay with
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: your darning price. Yeah, but Tory Horton not on the pup.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: That's good news. Nick even worry his status for Game
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 2: one opener against the New England Patriots the rematching Super
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: Bowl still up in the air. Mike McDonald telling us
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 2: on Saturday he could play. That was the exact quote.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 2: He could play. He could play.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 8: Such a McDonald's quote.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: Man, can he play well? He could play?
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 4: Could play?
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 8: Yeah, maybe, And.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 2: I'll give Greg belt all the credit man, our guy
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: from Tend to Noon tooth coming newst And he pressed
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: him him like five five different ways. Tell McDonald finally said,
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 2: I know what you're doing.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: Greg.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 2: He could plays, like god, very there are some peat
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: things with this dude. Sometimes he'll tell you he'll have
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 2: he'll he'll say some lot of words that don't say
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: anything at all. And that was one of those times.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it was good McDonald. A midseason form Hard
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 2: Knocks is here. By the way, August fourth is debut
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 2: of The Hard Knock Show. I guess some stories on that,
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 2: but I probably won't get till tell tomorrow. Let's get
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 2: to our number three.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 7: Now, back to Ian Furness at the Virginia Mason Athletics
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 7: Center and our special coverage of Seahawks training camp, brought
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 7: to you by the Boweing Classic Sports Radio.
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: K j r f M.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a little break from football practice
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 2: because Anders insists, then we talk.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: About the baseball team.
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 2: I mean we have to write well, I mean we
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 2: don't have to do anything, but we will. Seven to
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 2: three is the final. The Mariners lose to the Texas Rangers.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 2: They dropped three of four. Everyone's hope and thought that
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 2: dom can Zone with one swing of the bat would
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 2: flip the switch, save the season, turn things around. Now
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 2: the season is not lost by any means. They've got
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 2: a lot of games leaping. Yeah, if you thought that
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 2: that was going to be the switch, the igniter gets
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 2: some momentum going. If you thought that was what was
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 2: going to happen, then you probably also believed last week
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 2: that cal Rawley, when he hit a grand Slam, was
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 2: going to turn things around and become good. All of
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 2: a sudder. He is four for forty one in the
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: last two weeks. Oh, where's the drop? Yeah, I mean
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 2: four for forty one cal Rawley in the last couple
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 2: of weeks. Yeah, he gave he got the day off,
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 2: Mitch Garver was in, here's the story in this game.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: It's pretty simple, and Anders you were kind of keep
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: an eye on it. We're doing other things, I know. Yeah,
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 2: the TV up there, so you can kind of chime
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 2: in on. Want your thoughts. As a former host of
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 2: the post, are you back on the postcast?
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah, of course I am. Yeah.
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's go through the pitching line. Attention media, here's
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: a line for George Kirby.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 2: Four innings, seven hits, seven runs all earned, didn't walk anybody,
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 2: three strikeouts. The good news is he didn't walk anybody.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: The bad news is nobody wanted to walk because he
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 2: was throwing VP four home runs against.
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: That's not good. Yeah, I don't think so that's bad.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: I feel I feel that's really really bad. I've got
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 2: other questions, Andrews, you watch the game thoughts.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, unfortunately, they just can't put it together.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 5: It's been the story of the season where, you know,
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 5: you feel like you get a moment, you feel like
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 5: you get a good stretch of baseball, and then you
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 5: take a step back and you can never build on
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 5: the momentum. And the hot summer that everyone was kind
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 5: of expecting or hoping for just has come. They have
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 5: the toughest strength of schedule in the month of August
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 5: out of any Major League Baseball team three of their
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 5: next seven series or against first place the.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: Month of August.
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 2: Yes, I haven't even started yet, exactly lovely, okay, t
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 2: want to confirm that looking for confirmation. So the toughest
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: month of the toughest schedule coming up in the month
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: of August belongs to the Mariners. Yes, August hasn't even started.
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 5: Yet, that is correct, and they're two and a half
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 5: back of the aos leading Texas Rangers at this point.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 5: And the biggest thing for me, like put all the
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 5: strength of schedule stuff away because to me, the Mariners
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 5: it's it's it's not who they're playing against. They just
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 5: show this against the crappy teams. We saw it against
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 5: Cincinnati as well. They just don't play clean baseball, they
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 5: don't play focus baseball, they don't play urgent baseball. And
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 5: take it as much as you want by saying this
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 5: was the biggest, you know, series of the season, and
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 5: they lay in absolute dout and if.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 8: It weren't for a heroic three.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 5: Run home run by dom Canzone, they would have gotten
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 5: four games swept in the biggest series of the season.
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 5: And it's it's severely disappointing for me.
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 2: The the game yesterday with Canzone, I joke about him
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: like being the catalyst. But you know, Ken Zone arguably
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 2: has been your your offensive MVP.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, him and Randy have been the only ones really
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 5: doing anything offensively right.
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: Right right, And and Canzone yesterday gets you know, he
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: gets ahead of the count two.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 2: And I mean, I know some people love Buner on
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: the broadcast, some people hate him. Whatever, that's that's that's
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 2: your choice. But boy Butter called it like you can
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 2: kind of see it. They had the reliever this they
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 2: brought a reliever in. The guy was soft throwing and
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 2: and uh, he threw two fastballs that missed, and he
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 2: threw like a soft breaking ball that just was BP
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 2: and Ken Zone. Canzone talked about it after the game.
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 2: He said, yeah, they've been throwing me soft all game.
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 2: They didn't they weren't giving him fastballs ever, and they finally, uh,
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 2: after they missed with two fastballs, they come back soft
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: and he just he makes them pay. And then Randy
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: in the very next pitch makes him pay.
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 6: Yep.
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 2: Really, two swings of the bat were the only thing
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 2: that saved you from being swept in a four game series.
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 5: Yes, e yeah, and the biggest and the thing is, Okay,
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 5: you're gonna go through those moments in a season, but
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 5: it's been almost the entire season of inconsistency and when
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 5: you need the team to show up, I feel like
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 5: a lot of people were expecting them to be like,
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 5: all right, once it gets down to it, this team
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 5: will be there. It might take them longer than everyone
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 5: wanted to, but in the big moment where they need
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 5: to make go on a run or a big series
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 5: against a division rival, they'll show up and they'll play
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 5: like we expected them to play from the beginning of
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 5: the season, and they just didn't do that.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 8: They absolutely did not do that.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 2: So I was gonna ask you, like, you're kind of
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 2: glancing up, I'm trying to figure out pitch your usage
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 2: a little bit. Yeah, I know, we've you know, there's
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 2: been a lot of things that have been questioned about
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 2: Dan Wilson. Isn't for rare a high leverage guy? Yes,
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: so did we see him in a high leverage situation
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 2: all this weekend?
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 10: No?
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: I don't think we did not. We comes in today
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: and it's what was a score when he came.
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 8: In seventy two, seven to two.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: So are they just getting him work.
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 5: I don't know, because maybe it's a change in philosophy,
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 5: but even just what it was on last Tuesday.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: They buy. Here's why I was bringing that up. They
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 1: bypassed him with some high leverage situation.
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 5: One hundred percent like and I was gonna mention on Tuesday.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 5: I believe it was maybe his Wednesday against the Reds
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 5: where you are down three to two, you know, going
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 5: into the top of the nine things when you're back
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 5: at home, it's a one run game. Julio was brought
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 5: on as a pinch hitter, Uh to come in.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: That's a whole different conversation.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 8: It's a whole different conversation.
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 4: Yes, thatd guy.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 5: That is a whole different conversation. But he was originally
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 5: not healthy enough to start, but they brought him on
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 5: as a pinch hitter. He actually gets an RBI to
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 5: make it three to two instead of three to one,
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 5: and then you bring in Michael Rucker in the top
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 5: half of the ninth inning. He gives up a home
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 5: run to make it four to two and the run
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 5: you just got from Julio coming off the bench was
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 5: negated by you not using one of your four leverage arms.
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 8: And uh, then you.
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 5: Come couple that with the thought process of bringing Jose
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 5: Ferrera in in the what fifth inning at that point
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 5: after Kirby can only get through four and when you're
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 5: down by five, I understand that you're down a bullpen arms,
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 5: so you're gonna need someone to show up. But it's
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 5: just the usage is wacky to me. And uh, it's
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 5: a team that just isn't playing good baseball. It's it's
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 5: really hard to say it any other way. They suck
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 5: right now.
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, SOFTI just pointed out he's sitting there. He hasn't
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 2: pitched in six days for are Yeah, but so like
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 2: that's a problem.
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 8: So you use him in the Cincinnati game when you're
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 8: down by one.
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 1: That's the problem here.
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 2: He's if Munho's if Munio's stubbed his toe tomorrow and
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 2: couldn't go, which almost like a shot at Julio, but like, like,
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 2: but if he did that, he's the other guy who's
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 2: closed games for you this year. Brash is still out. Yeah,
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 2: Like he's your de facto he's a high leverage guy,
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 2: so not to use him for six games and then
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 2: to use him today, I guess does make sense. I
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 2: hadn't us him a while, want to get him some use.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 2: Oh here's the thing. Hell, you may not get any
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 2: use against the Dodgers. You won't and then they may
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 2: just boat race your ass for the next three game.
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you're five and eleven in your last sixteen games.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 5: The Mariners are five and eleven.
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: Fifty two and fifty five. They are two games also
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 1: out of a wildcard berth right, yeap with with unfortunately
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of guys between you.
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 5: Well and yeah, so I was gonna say a lot.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 5: It's almost division or bust at this point end, because
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 5: it might be easier to win the Al West than
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 5: it is to get a wildcard spot. With how a
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 5: lot of these other teams are starting to play.
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 2: Well, not good, not good, Bob, no, Bob. We will
• 1:31:42

  Speaker 18: Ian?
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 4: How are you?
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: I'm okay? I'm okay better than the baseball team. How's
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 1: the football team doing?
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 15: We look at they look a lot better than the
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 15: baseball team. At that that bar is low. That bar
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 15: is incredibly low.
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 2: There's no bar that that helps us out. Your first
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 2: chance to lay eyes on here. I was out here
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 2: on Saturday. We've heard a lot about culture connected all
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 2: this kind of stuff. Mike McDonald doing a story about
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 2: Michael Jordan what it would it take to get over
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 2: the top and win a championship. We had Tyle kinda
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 2: tell us that story earlier. From from mini camp to now,
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 2: What do you think has changed? What will change?
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 1: What are you looking for?
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 15: Well, the nice thing you see is some of these
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 15: guys that weren't out here in the spring. Aj Barner
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 15: in particular, he looks healthy, full participant. Tory Horton doesn't
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 15: look that he's doing anything today. Yeah, he just walked
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 15: out a second ago, so they're they're going to be
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 15: doing a ramp up program with him, but he got
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 15: to practice.
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 2: I was surprised on Saturday when he came out with
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 2: a helmet on Friday on Saturday and and was like
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 2: basically a full go, like did pretty much everything on Saturday.
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: I was I think we were all a little bit surprised,
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: and we did.
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 2: He scaled it back yesterday and then today he's just
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 2: taking the day off, which is wise, right, you go ahead.
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 15: And yeah, you don't want a guy coming off with
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 15: significant injury to just throw him in and just hey,
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 15: you're practicing every single day, especially when he didn't do
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 15: anything in the off season program.
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 2: How much can you really tell at this point when
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 2: there's no pads on right now?
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 15: Is really challenging the first three four practices before we
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 15: actually get to see even when they just have shells on,
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 15: there's a lot more you can glean from that when
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 15: they get their shoulder pads on. Right now, they're still
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 15: in that Ota mode where they almost looked like their
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 15: NFL combine with helmets and a jersey on the top.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 15: It's just, you know, there's things you can glean from this,
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 15: but without them actually been able to hit each other,
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 15: and even even just wrapping up and blocking not being there,
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 15: it's limited, We'll put it that way.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 2: The Cooper Cup made the catch of the day yesterday
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 2: and was raving about and it's funny. I was watching
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 2: him today warming up and I noticed this after practice
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 2: Saturday too, so he shaved the beard in the off season,
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: the homeless beard he had going on, and he looks
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 2: like he looks ten years younger. Imagine what this offense
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 2: could be if Cooper Cup had like a sixty catch season.
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 9: You put that on top of what else they've got.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 15: I mean, we just saw Rashid Shaheeda out here catch
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 15: a drag and then just take off for twenty yards
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 15: like you put you put him in this offense fully,
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 15: fully immersed in it.
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 1: And the right. Yeah.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 15: Yeah, you get hopefully a whole season of Tory Horton's.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 2: So you've got competent I mean three, Like, let's just
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 2: talk receivers for a second. Okay, So you've got the
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 2: reigning NFL Offensive Player of the Year, he's still good.
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 2: You've got Cooper Cup if Horton's healthy, and Rashid Shaheed
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 2: who really was non factor in the offense last year.
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 1: There's four guys. It's pretty good.
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 9: And I'll throw this out there.
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 15: I actually think Jake Bobo in this version of the
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 15: Shanahan offense. Bobo could be one to look out for
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 15: because I just have a feeling that Brian Flurry's gonna
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 15: love him. And you know, the blocking and the and
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 15: the contested catchability that moving. I just have a feeling
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 15: we're gonna. We got to see him come out in
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 15: the playoffs last year.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 4: I could see him.
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 15: He's not gonna have a huge statistical season because the
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 15: fifth guy, but I could see him making more catches
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 15: than people.
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 2: Well, you've got to use him more in the passing
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 2: game than they did. Only the sense of it's almost like,
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 2: to an extreme, a Jalen Milroe situation. You can't like
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 2: with mil Row. Now obviously it didn't work out at
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 2: the end of the year, But if he's only in
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 2: there to run the ball, and that's the only thing,
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 2: you're like that, like, how much easier is it for
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 2: a defense if you know that six is gonna be
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 2: if he's in there, there's a version of a run.
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 2: If nineteen is in there as a wide receiver, you
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 2: know he's in there to block. If he's only But
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 2: that changed, like you said, in the playoffs, right, that
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 2: changed in the playoffs.
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 15: I think we just saw Jenari and Price catch a
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 15: touchdown on a wheel route. Pretty sure that was Number
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 15: eight that just hauled that in.
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna be critical of our
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be critical of our fellow media people for
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 2: a second. I think way too much is being made
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 2: about his pass catching. I like they threw a bunch
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 2: that they threw a.
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 15: He's got really his efficiency numbers are really good. Yeah,
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 15: they just didn't get a lot of chance.
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 2: There was a big the big listen, all due respect,
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 2: corbyin to you and the rest of the print guys,
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 2: Corvin Smith, Emial see spectrum.
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 1: Sometimes we get in a little bit.
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 2: Of a group think out here and everyone's kind of
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 2: going down the same path because we're all standing at
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 2: everyone's talking to each other. They threw a lot of
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 2: screen passes, a lot of balls to Price on Saturday,
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 2: they did, But they threw a lot of balls to
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 2: j Carti Wright, to George Lane and other guys. Now
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 2: they were getting him more work as he's getting Accli Mayde.
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 2: He's a rookie, but I think he's gonna you know,
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 2: Rob's talked about it a lot too.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 1: He's a kick returner. His hands.
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 2: You don't put a guy back to return kicks if
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 2: you have bad hands. Now, I don't think and I'm
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 2: a dipstick. I have no clue to me, he doesn't
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 2: look as fluid and natural catching the ball as say.
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 2: There was back to back plays where Vellas Jones was
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 2: in there. Depth guy probably not gonna make the team,
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 2: but also was played receiver. Watching him catch and Jones
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 2: it's a little bit different. But you watch you look
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 2: at Jones, man, that dude looks he's a first round pick.
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 2: He's gonna start. He's your starting running back. They didn't
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 2: draft him the first round to be behind George Halawney.
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 2: That would be it if they did. If they did,
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 2: that's that's a that's a Christian Michael like mistake.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 15: My my concern is more about when the pads come on,
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 15: what he looks like in past. Sure that that's the
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 15: thing that I'm most you know, and maybe that's just
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 15: the running back coach.
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 1: And Walker was awful in pass Pro and to be
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl MVP.
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 15: Yeah, but but when they were in those two minute
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 15: drill situations, who was in the lineup It wasn't him,
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 15: it was it was either Sharbone or And look, you
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 15: can say what you want about Hallani when they were
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 15: in those two minute drill situations the NFC Title Game
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 15: and in the Super Bowl, he had some really nice
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 15: clutch catches and he was he had Look, I know
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 15: that there's gonna be some former Seahawks. They've talked to
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 15: me like I hate the word exquisite. I love it.
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 15: It was exquisite, past protection, exquisite like that, it was.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 4: It was perfect.
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 1: Who doesn't like that? I don't know.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not gonna say names. If you want to know,
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 4: you can find it on social media.
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 15: But like how you call an exquisite, I thought it's beautiful,
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 15: It's perfectly done.
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 2: I thought the only former players that call people out
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 2: on social media are named Mike Cameron.
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: I thought that was the only one that did that. Yeah,
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 1: I'm talking to you, Cammy all right.
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 2: By the way, I'm gonna bust you and rangs Chops
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 2: all year long about the Hallane love. It's just gonna happen.
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 2: And I like George Wannie too, trust me, I love him.
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 2: I don't have the same quite level of man crush
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 2: that you two guys have him on from the Locked
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 2: onn podcast, But I like Lannie.
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 15: I think I think Rob is on another level though,
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 15: I really do you know.
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 2: I let's talk defense for sat Corpus Smith and will
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 2: see spectrum. We just heard a minute ago we had
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 2: we played the stuff from inside the IPF with Dante
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 2: Fowler came out here, didn't practice on Saturday. I don't
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 2: know if he's anything today. He's out there today, he
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 2: did they kind of they eased him in there. What
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 2: kind of contribution do you think he can make?
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 15: Look, the bar has been set kind of low here
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 15: because boy Mafe did not produce last year, like hit
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 15: two sacks and two quarterback hits in the entire season.
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 15: Dante Fowlers Junior, even a down season last year, had
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 15: four times as many quarterback hits and he had more sacks.
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 15: You put him back in a defense that's got Adden
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 15: Dirtey involved. You know, he's had a lot of success
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 15: with Dirty in the past in Atlanta and in Dallas.
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 9: And he's just a different style rusher.
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 15: He is that true finesse get up field, it can
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 15: work off blocks, shedding with counter moves off it. He's
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 15: just he's gonna be a really nice contrast to the
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 15: other rushers that they have. I think he's gonna this
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 15: is my prediction for him this year. Ian, I think
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 15: he's gonna split the balance between the last two years.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 15: He had ten and a half sacks two years ago.
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 15: He had three last year.
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 9: I think he gets in that five and a half
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 9: to seven sack range well.
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 1: And it's the team that gets sacks by committee.
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 2: Nobody had double digits last year seven, seven, and six
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 2: with the top three sack numbers individually by by players
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 2: last year. All right, what are you writing for on
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 2: animal see Spekhrom the next couple days with so much.
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's.
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 9: Gonna have obviously our takeaway piece from today.
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 15: I'll be diving into some of the stuff that I
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 15: noticed here on the field that'll be coming out about
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 15: an hour or so after practice and press conferences. And
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 15: then I had just chat with Riley Mills. Will dive
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 15: into that player that I'm really excited about.
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 1: So I heard. I'm just talking to a staffer on
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 1: Saturday about him, and apparently.
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 2: That's a dude that a lot of times when guys
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 2: don't play like the whole bunch of the year and
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 2: they're just kind of there and they're off to the side.
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 2: I heard the way he integrated himself into the everything
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 2: through the respect of veterans that like that a lot
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 2: of people hadn't seen before as a rookie, like like
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 2: very well respected guy, and really, for the first time
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 2: in what eighteen months, he's healthy, like really healthy.
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 9: I think that this kid is going to be special.
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: Where does he fit well?
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 15: There's no such thing as having too many good players
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 15: in the interior defensive line. I think you are going
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 15: to start seeing I think Jared Reid's got a couple
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 15: more good years left in him. I mean, defensive tackles
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 15: tend to play longer, it seems. But I think you're
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 15: going to start seeing a passing in the torch there
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 15: to an extent, I think that this is going to
• 1:42:05
  Speaker 15: turn into Riley Mills being the number three guy down
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 15: the line.
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 4: You want to chime, Can I jump in for a second?
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 1: Mine?
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 19: No, not my list yet on my list perfected by
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 19: probably the end of the first segment of the show.
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 19: But Corbyn's here, and I gotta ask you a question
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 19: because I heard you talk about you think Riley Mill
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 19: is gonna be special?
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 4: Is that right?
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 19: All that I want to know from you? Because your
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 19: positivity is actually starting to annoy me. There's no way
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 19: somebody is that positive about everything I want and you're negative, Well,
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 19: you're very negative.
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 4: You're just an old.
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 19: Softy trust me, and there's been plenty of things. Tell
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 19: us who sucks on this tap honestly? Tell us who
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 19: is lucky to even make it out of day one
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 19: of the preseason. Tell us who no right to be here?
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 19: Come on, prove that you're human to me, Corby, not
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 19: if I'm right, Not if I'm right, come on, just
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 19: tell us who is it? Look well, I feel I
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 19: feel you see what I'm saying here, So I can't
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 19: even do it. It's like he's short certain listen him.
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 15: I feel for the situation that Kenny McIntosh isn't okay
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 15: all right, because I think you saw a couple of
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 15: years ago that the guy can play some But I
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 15: just don't. I don't know where he fits into this,
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 15: even when he gets off the pup list, right he
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 15: gets off the pup list, I don't know where he
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 15: fits in. And and I feel like they got a
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 15: more talented version of him because he's a similar style
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 15: runner to Jdarian Price, kind of get that gliding style.
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 9: But Price Price just has.
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 4: Gotten here, and Emmanuel here, all those guys.
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 15: I just don't unless somebody else gets hurt, I just
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 15: don't know where he fits in.
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 4: So I'm protty. I'm protty for Kenny mack.
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 2: You do have a soul, Kenny mackintosh, Kenny McIntosh, and
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 2: do reach the finish line off the pup before Sharbonay
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 2: and give himself a chance to get That's it.
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 1: But that's the only way.
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 15: I mean, if sharbon A somehow crazy thing is, I
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 15: could see sharbon A like threatening to come back like
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 15: they might, they could take him off the pup list,
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 15: but then he misses a couple of games, then he's
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 15: back in like late September.
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 9: I don't know that that happens.
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 15: But his his trajectory is so much more optimistic than
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 15: I mean, you just listen to the coaches talk about
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 15: I mean McDonald and all years been very lucim on
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 15: Kenny mack.
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 2: You would have since you don't like positivity, No, I don't, don't.
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 2: You would have hated McDonald's Saturday because just gushing over
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 2: sharbon A and just about well. But he deserves it,
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 2: though about his spirits deserves But as he's saying all
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 2: those things and you're talking, I'm like softy would buy anything.
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 19: No, I got no problem with that. I mean this
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 19: whole we're not we're not running it back. We're reinventing creating.
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 19: I mean, come on, man, you know what we're doing.
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 19: We're trying to.
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 4: Win back to back titles, defending a title.
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 19: That's what we're doing, all right. If you can't figure
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 19: it out, that's what we're doing.
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 15: Look sharbon A being on the field doing what he
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 15: was doing in early June. And I've had some people
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 15: laugh at me, but it's like, my mom's My mom's
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 15: a family doctor and has been sports medicine for a
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 15: long time. I told her when he had surgery and
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 15: what he was doing. He's a good month month and
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 15: a half of his Yeah.
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 1: Which is fine, I mean right, Like, so it's like
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 1: the guys do that, yes, and.
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 4: They recover faster.
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 19: Look, and I'm just bringing this up just to bust
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 19: your balls, because this is the one thing I just
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 19: can't stand about training camp is that, like you said,
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 19: there's a little group thing. People start gushing over players
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 19: and then come September they're not even here or we
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 19: don't hear from them for the next six months.
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 4: So I don't know, man, I mean to me, I I.
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 19: Always just use this as a tool just to talk Seahawks, right,
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 19: talk football, and kind of get the conversation going. But
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 19: I I just find myself anybody making any proclamations about
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 19: what's going to happen in September based on something they
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 19: see today.
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 4: I mean, you're out to lunch. I don't think he's
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 4: I think he.
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 15: Also had to consider though, like me, when you're sessing
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 15: somebody like people, you'reessing somebody.
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 4: Mills, he's going to be a factor.
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 1: Riley Mills.
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 15: We've seen what he can do, Like the dude could
• 1:46:04
  Speaker 15: have They should have given him two sacks in the
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 15: Super Bowl.
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 19: Well, here's where we should tell the Riley Mills story
• 1:46:09

  Speaker 4: Remember that.

• 1:49:22
  Speaker 2: at Seahawks, and all I see is anger towards the
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 2: local major league baseball team, including a bunch of ones
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 2: I can't read on the air because their letter or
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 2: their work cannot stay.
• 1:49:34

• 1:49:37
  Speaker 17: Hey, it's Chris Crawford. You know me from molly Wap Monday.
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 17: And that's it. I just want to give an apology
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 17: to everyone tomorrow for all of the swears that I'm
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 17: going to drop during Bolliwap Monday. I don't think I
• 1:49:50
  Speaker 17: can avoid it. I'm barely controlling myself right now. I
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 17: hate this baseball team. I hate it. I hate what
• 1:49:58
  Speaker 17: this baseball team has done to me. I hate that
• 1:50:01
  Speaker 17: I ever had expectations and I stood.
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 2: An' Chris, you have thirty seconds, buddy, Come on, okay,
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 2: time out. I gotta I gotta add to that two things. One,
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 2: there are a handful of texts on here asking where
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 2: the Mully Whoppers are today.
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the reason they weren't on today.
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 2: Uh, they've been just spit on they Uh, the Marriors
• 1:50:21
  Speaker 2: were playing at the exact time we would have had
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 2: him on. Created really no sense to have the Mully
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 2: Whoppers on promoting a product elsewhere that they're playing. So
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 2: that's why they weren't on today. But I see all
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 2: the texts coming in right now, and I understand what
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 2: you're saying. These are the days that you need those
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 2: two guys. Here's this, here's a sad thing. Here's here's
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 2: the sad thing. If that's what Chris is saying right now,
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 2: Oh god, what do you think Nathan's gonna be?
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 5: Oh god, he's gonna be giddy. Are you kidding me?
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 5: He's gonna be happy because he gets to crap on them. Well,
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 5: he did say that he make the worst thing that
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 5: can happen is when they lose two or three on
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 5: a weekend series, but then when the last one, but
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 5: when they win the Sunday Yeah, I'm gonna I mean there, Yeah,

  Speaker 19: you could have heard off the air.
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 10: But we were not allowed to get.

• 1:54:40
  Speaker 4: He's unbelievable. He's just making us all look bad of it.
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 2: He probably would be the guy filming right now against
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 2: the rules, and then we're all gonna get kicked.
• 1:54:46
  Speaker 19: Out, Tolly ye would you be sad if we got

  Speaker 4: I like being here.

• 1:55:07
  Speaker 19: I just wanted to make sure that Corbyn had an
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 19: objective bone in his body, which I think he does.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 2: Because we talked about the good stuff off the here.
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you who he really doesn't like. Who's that

• 1:55:20
  Speaker 19: Milroe didn't put a gun to John Snyder's head and
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 19: say draft me in the third round.
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 4: I want to blame anybody, Blame them.
• 1:55:27

• 1:55:34
  Speaker 1: I watched them.
• 1:55:35
  Speaker 19: I mean Dick and I got into a big argument
• 1:55:36
  Speaker 19: about that before the draft. I'm like, I wouldn't touch
• 1:55:38
  Speaker 19: the guy with a ten Football. Then they make him
• 1:55:40
  Speaker 19: their third draft pick man, so you know what, they
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 19: still want a Super Bowl.
• 1:55:44
  Speaker 4: We've seen a lot of guys, yeah, exactly.
• 1:55:46
  Speaker 19: We've seen a lot of guys that have problems with
• 1:55:49
  Speaker 19: a passing motion go into the NFL. Jalen Hurts is
• 1:55:52
  Speaker 19: one of them. Yes, who I thought got way better
• 1:55:54
  Speaker 19: when he went to Oklahoma. Tyler Huntley's another.
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 4: I remember watching him at Utah.
• 1:55:59
  Speaker 19: He was awful and not that he's a phenomenal carved
• 1:56:02
  Speaker 19: out a nice little career for himself in the NFL.
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 19: Don't say he made the Pro Bowl, but he did
• 1:56:07
  Speaker 19: make the Pro Bowl. The guy, the guy played and like, yeah,
• 1:56:10
  Speaker 19: bring that up. The guy played in like six games
• 1:56:12
  Speaker 19: that year. Bring that up with you and incorporated Russell Wilson.
• 1:56:15
  Speaker 19: That's right exactly. Anyway, we've seen guys all of a
• 1:56:18
  Speaker 19: sudden start to you know, kind of work on their
• 1:56:20
  Speaker 19: mechanics and and make a run and maybe Jalen Milroll
• 1:56:23
  Speaker 19: here will be the guy. The problem Milroe is they
• 1:56:25
  Speaker 19: didn't trust him to carry the football because of all
• 1:56:27
  Speaker 19: those fumbles in the preseason.
• 1:56:29
  Speaker 2: The first three games he's in active risk of year.
• 1:56:31
  Speaker 2: What do you want to interject Anders.
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 5: I just found a really good text. It's talking about Softy,
• 1:56:36
  Speaker 5: interjecting during the Corbyn Smith segment.
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead, and said.
• 1:56:39
  Speaker 8: Who invited sauce?
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 4: Soft team?
• 1:56:41
  Speaker 5: Already exhausted? Can't Jessamine prevent that from happening?
• 1:56:44
  Speaker 19: She's not here, not here, not here. She doesn't work
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 19: on this show anymore, by the way, she's slumming with
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 19: Greg Bell.
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 4: Now, I didn't.
• 1:56:51
  Speaker 1: I didn't mind because I was exhausted out of the
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 1: entire half hours.
• 1:56:54
  Speaker 19: Anders you know Ian better than me. Do you think
• 1:56:55
  Speaker 19: he's ever going to give a damn if somebody gives
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 19: him a couple of minutes off.
• 1:56:58
  Speaker 2: God, I'm already planning on finishing last and fantasy football again.
• 1:57:04
  Speaker 19: Oh god, dude, just so you can bring in all
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 19: those idiots to do your show.
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 19: I still don't know how that happened. By the way,
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 19: how did you like? Honestly, I don't know those guys
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 19: like you do. Are they morons? Most of them?
• 1:57:18
  Speaker 1: I'd say, mostly because.
• 1:57:19
  Speaker 19: They literally got you off work as a punishment to you. Andrews,
• 1:57:24
  Speaker 19: you know what, I am tired of the way that
• 1:57:27
  Speaker 19: you're acting.
• 1:57:27
  Speaker 4: Take a week off. I still get paid, That's right.
• 1:57:31
  Speaker 2: He'll still get paid. It's like, yeah, it's always the
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 2: best suspension in the world. And to hear people he's
• 1:57:35
  Speaker 2: been suspended with paid, what do I have to do
• 1:57:37
  Speaker 2: to get suspended with pay?
• 1:57:38
  Speaker 19: I want that. I want the gym Mora plan. That's
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 19: what I want. I want to get fired to make
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 19: twenty million dollars how much he's made. Yeah, it's more.
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 19: It's more to not get to Yeah, it's it's barely
• 1:57:50
  Speaker 19: more because now he's working.
• 1:57:51
  Speaker 4: Again, he's at CSU Carrol State.
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 1: Are you gonna destroy a baseball team today? Oh?
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 19: Probably, let's just get it is so tiresome. Yeah, it's
• 1:58:03
  Speaker 19: like they are. Well, it's just it's just you're just
• 1:58:05
  Speaker 19: beating a dead horse, right. And it's the same story
• 1:58:08
  Speaker 19: every now and then you get a year like last
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 19: year where you get to kind of back off and
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 19: you know, feel good about him, and then they go
• 1:58:14
  Speaker 19: right back. Nobody is good at crushing good vibes more
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 19: than this franchise. It is unbelievable. A couple of years ago,
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 19: they had that ten game lead in the West, piss
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 19: that away. Last year, go to Game seven, eight outs away,
• 1:58:27
  Speaker 19: we're all fired up, piss that away. What happened unbelievable. Well,
• 1:58:30
  Speaker 19: what happened is the stars aren't showing up to me.
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 19: That's pretty simple, man. So we can we can bitch
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 19: about Dan Wilson all we want. And I think a
• 1:58:38
  Speaker 19: lot of the criticism is valid, there's no doubt. But
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 19: if Josh Naylor, Cal Riley, Julio Rodriguez are just having
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 19: average years by their standards, we're not even having this
• 1:58:49
  Speaker 19: conversation right now.
• 1:58:50
  Speaker 2: If you look out here with this team, and if
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 2: Sam Darnold throws twenty interception.
• 1:58:54
  Speaker 4: That was the point I was gonna make with you.
• 1:58:55
  Speaker 4: You just stole my whole opening topic. Thanks.
• 1:58:57
  Speaker 3: A lot of.
• 1:58:59
  Speaker 1: Nobody's listening now they tune in.
• 1:59:00
  Speaker 19: Who are the top three players on the offense? Darnold, Jackson,
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 19: Smith and Jig Buta And let's just say, Charles Cross,
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 19: how about that? Okay, if those three guys all stunk
• 1:59:10
  Speaker 19: next year, forget it.
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 4: They're finish. I mean, their defense is good, but they
• 1:59:14
  Speaker 4: can't win every game seven three?
• 1:59:16
  Speaker 2: Right, Our guy has done some research. Are you gonna
• 1:59:19
  Speaker 2: Are you gonna bring up the Brian wu research later?
• 1:59:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 1:59:21
  Speaker 19: Yeah, I will have done research. Yeah, I still have
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 19: it from Wyman by the way they ripped it off
• 1:59:25
  Speaker 19: from him.
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:59:27
  Speaker 19: Yeah, he's still stuff from us all the time. You
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 19: should hear that radio station. Man, they're always robbing us,
• 1:59:33
  Speaker 19: taking our good stats.
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 4: I hate it. That's a definition of just the one guy.
• 1:59:39
  Speaker 4: Like over there, dude, there's a couple of guys.
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so you asked Anders how to figure it out?
• 1:59:43
  Speaker 13: R A.
• 1:59:43
  Speaker 1: You guys are able to figure it out, So he'll
• 1:59:45
  Speaker 1: do that later. Yeah, youa bring up that.
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 19: Well, I just wanted to know what Kirby's kirk because
• 1:59:49
  Speaker 19: you asked me on the air or was it off
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 19: the air?
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 6: I forget.
• 1:59:52
  Speaker 4: Would I rather have a road Wu or road Kirby one?
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 19: And it's it's not even close, honestly, Like it's like
• 1:59:59
  Speaker 19: I should smack you for asking that question.
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 4: Honestly, it was the last time you got punched in
• 2:00:03
  Speaker 4: the face.
• 2:00:04
  Speaker 19: Smacked in the face, hitting the face, got into bar fight,
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 19: practice fight, whatever.
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 4: Maybe Tammy had enough, he had hauled off.
• 2:00:10
  Speaker 2: It was the last time Dante's on the University of
• 2:00:13
  Speaker 2: really two thousand, No, it would have been.
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 1: When was that again?
