- 0:34Speaker 2: rebate with the triple chop for the Brewers. He was
- 0:39Speaker 2: denounced by his manager. What are we doing? We're up
- 0:41Speaker 2: six nothing? Why are we doing that?
- 0:43Speaker 3: Merg stands up on the top step of the dugout
- 0:45Speaker 3: onto the dirt and just watches him. You go, watch
- 0:47Speaker 3: him walk off the mound, walk off the mound, walk
- 0:50Speaker 3: off the mountain, walk right to him, and then right
- 0:52Speaker 3: as he gets.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Close enough to get right into earshot.
- 0:55Speaker 3: You want to talk about the travel ball parent to
- 0:57Speaker 3: a t that was watching little or is me watching
- 1:01Speaker 3: the little guy roll around in the dirt last night
- 1:03Speaker 3: at tea ball the entire time. Just wait to take
- 1:05Speaker 3: it over here, buddy. That is the last thing we
- 1:09Speaker 3: are doing. That is the last thing we're going to
- 1:11Speaker 3: be about. However, he said, you know, he can't can't
- 1:14Speaker 3: be doing stuff trying to do the things that we've
- 1:16Speaker 3: done in the last couple of years and more doing
- 1:18Speaker 3: that stuff.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Sure, but it sure is fun.
- 1:21Speaker 3: But but it does add a little bit of fun.
- 1:23Speaker 3: It does add a little bit fun. I know it's
- 1:24Speaker 3: not right. I feel like AI a little bit. I
- 1:27Speaker 3: know I'm supposed to be there. I know I'm supposed
- 1:29Speaker 3: to lead by examina. But we're talking about the d
- 1:32Speaker 3: X sucket.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Like, I mean, people have been doing the d X
- 1:34Speaker 1: for a We're talking, We're talking about We're talking about it.
- 1:38Speaker 3: He's just giving it the Shawn Michaels the Heartbreak kid.
- 1:45Speaker 4: I was just gonna say, how take come day, hot take?
- 1:48Speaker 4: Did he do it better than Brett Farva? The game
- 1:49Speaker 4: it was in nineteen ninety eight against the Eagles, and
- 1:52Speaker 4: it was the Koy Debt Murer gesture game, I believe,
- 1:56Speaker 4: and apparently COI was giving a gesture to the Packers
- 1:59Speaker 4: bench Brett fi Packers score Brett just giving it to
- 2:02Speaker 4: their bench and gave him the business on the crotch job.
- 2:05Speaker 4: Dick Stock loving him. If you're looking for the video,
- 2:07Speaker 4: I did clip it and I posted it to my
- 2:10Speaker 4: Twitter at Armen Sorgin. Just give myself a little pot there. However,
- 2:13Speaker 4: I mean, look, this is your gamesmanship. Yeah it's not.
- 2:17Speaker 4: The audio is not great. It's just Dick Stocked and
- 2:19Speaker 4: saying he had some fun there.
- 2:20Speaker 1: But I can I'll put it on there for a
- 2:23Speaker 1: little bit for you guys.
- 2:23Speaker 2: Yeah, so you rebe It wasn't just the chop though.
- 2:28Speaker 2: It was the full on hip thrust with the chop.
- 2:33Speaker 1: You'n the you gotta do this.
- 2:35Speaker 4: He always hit the dice, roll the bowing, these things.
- 2:38Speaker 4: So he does some of that stuff already.
- 2:40Speaker 2: You know, I love some of the cardinal cardinal twitter.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Oh they're going beyond just the rebay. But they're saying,
- 2:48Speaker 2: how did the Brewers do this? Every year? Every single year?
- 2:50Speaker 2: Seven guys, you've never heard of a fat first baseman.
- 2:53Speaker 2: Christianowis and the best rotation you've ever seen in the
- 2:55Speaker 2: history of baseball.
- 2:56Speaker 1: I'm so sick of it. That's amazing.
- 2:58Speaker 4: Well, I think they're joining the Cups fan in their
- 3:00Speaker 4: absolute frustration at the Brewers inevitability.
- 3:03Speaker 1: I'll say that at least.
- 3:04Speaker 3: They try to point some baseball things other than just
- 3:06Speaker 3: the devil magic.
- 3:08Speaker 1: Right like, or they must be cheating. I have a question,
- 3:11Speaker 1: though I love Jake Bowers, isn't fat? Is Jake Bowers fat? No?
- 3:15Speaker 1: I mean Reynolds was okay fat like they were projected everybody.
- 3:21Speaker 1: I get it. Other guys were prince. We've had a
- 3:25Speaker 1: legitimately a lot of fat verst base.
- 3:26Speaker 3: It's a large first base. Carter would fit into that mold,
- 3:29Speaker 3: huge son of a gun.
- 3:30Speaker 4: I think Jake Bower is a strapping young lad, though
- 3:32Speaker 4: I don't think he's fat. He's got a nice specimen going.
- 3:35Speaker 4: He's been, he's been huge for the I'm just say
- 3:40Speaker 4: he's a strap and look.
- 3:40Speaker 1: At young man. You know whatever.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Yvonne Herrera of the Cardinals, uh his reply, according to
- 3:46Speaker 2: my pal Derek Gould, dispatch, you have an issue with me?
- 3:50Speaker 1: He come talk to me. Don't disrespect our team. It's
- 3:52Speaker 1: like I'm at second base. I'm a second base.
- 3:54Speaker 3: I thought it was Burlison was the one at the
- 3:56Speaker 3: plate correct, because he's looking at him just like yeah.
- 4:01Speaker 1: The funniest thing.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Is Berlin is looking right through and watching him do
- 4:05Speaker 3: the whole thing well.
- 4:06Speaker 2: To Armin's point, though, how good would it have been
- 4:09Speaker 2: had that call been overturned and he had to throw
- 4:10Speaker 2: another pitch?
- 4:12Speaker 1: I can only imagine the energy.
- 4:14Speaker 4: And to Murph's point, look at six nothing but you
- 4:16Speaker 4: never know who could happen in this game. A bloop
- 4:18Speaker 4: and a blast and things get tight, so he would
- 4:21Speaker 4: have had would have done it again.
- 4:24Speaker 3: I think that's just how he rolls. I think that's
- 4:26Speaker 3: how his mind's made it.
- 4:27Speaker 2: And meanwhile, while we're serving shots of shotenfreude instead of
- 4:31Speaker 2: alert to Uhur from across the board, the Cubs are
- 4:37Speaker 2: proving everything that I always say about, like, you know,
- 4:39Speaker 2: first goal of the season to get ten over and
- 4:41Speaker 2: give yourself that cushion. And the Cubs have lost ten
- 4:44Speaker 2: in a row and they're still and they're in the
- 4:46Speaker 2: last place. They're tied for a last place in the
- 4:49Speaker 2: Central at twenty nine and twenty six, the only division
- 4:51Speaker 2: where everybody's got a winning record. The worst teams are
- 4:54Speaker 2: three games over five hundred in the NL Central. But
- 4:58Speaker 2: that's what that is all about for sure. Then you
- 5:01Speaker 2: just when you're a good team, your baseline is five
- 5:04Speaker 2: hundred and you can spring off of that. And if
- 5:05Speaker 2: you're five hundred on September first, you're in the You're
- 5:07Speaker 2: in the mix.
- 5:08Speaker 1: Yeah, you're gonna be You're in.
- 5:09Speaker 3: You got a chance, especially with the expanded playoffs allowing
- 5:13Speaker 3: for more teams to have a chance down the stretch.
- 5:17Speaker 3: And it makes me wonder, true, how many of these
- 5:19Speaker 3: teams will have a little bit of a pop once
- 5:21Speaker 3: you get towards uh, towards September, because I do still
- 5:25Speaker 3: believe it's a Brewers and Cubs battle throughout the summer.
- 5:29Speaker 3: But like the Cardinals, Reds and Pirates, somebody's gonna be
- 5:31Speaker 3: chasing for third, somebody's gonna be trying to keep themselves
- 5:33Speaker 3: in the mix. And it does feel like they would
- 5:36Speaker 3: have a possibility to maybe even get three teams in
- 5:39Speaker 3: if one of them continues to hold off a little
- 5:41Speaker 3: bit better man. Pirates offense a lot better than I
- 5:43Speaker 3: thought it was gonna be, or as a lot better
- 5:46Speaker 3: than it's been over the last decade or so.
- 5:48Speaker 1: We'll see if it can continue.
- 5:49Speaker 3: But they got a few more veterans on that that
- 5:51Speaker 3: squad than I had anticipated Ryan O'Hearn Ozuna playing well.
- 5:54Speaker 3: And if you're a run differential guy, then they're the
- 5:57Speaker 3: second best team in the division, especially buoyed last night.
- 5:59Speaker 1: By drumming the Cubbies twelve one.
- 6:02Speaker 2: You want to make yourself feel better spinning through Cardinals Twitter.
- 6:06Speaker 2: They're not even like, you know, the rebate thing. They're
- 6:09Speaker 2: just mad at the Brewers and their circumstances. And the
- 6:12Speaker 2: first two here's one from a Cardinals fan on the Twitter.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Uh it is, Hang on one second, just I just
- 6:21Speaker 2: misplaced the tweet it is and they're all, yeah, st
- 6:27Speaker 2: L smitty. The Brewers have undoubtedly climbed a number one
- 6:31Speaker 2: in my hatred rankings over the Cubs.
- 6:33Speaker 1: Nice. You know, that's the whole thing about the Cardinals, Like.
- 6:38Speaker 2: That's the same thing recency bias. The Brewers can turn
- 6:40Speaker 2: any human being into a Hall of Famer. Everything goes
- 6:43Speaker 2: their way, every signing, every trade, Nothing bad ever happens
- 6:46Speaker 2: to the Brewers.
- 6:48Speaker 3: And that's larious because it's the frustration over the things
- 6:52Speaker 3: you're doing well, which I think is good.
- 6:53Speaker 1: Bird Brewers fans appreciate this red Bird riot.
- 6:56Speaker 2: I forgot how insufferable the Brewers and their fans are
- 6:58Speaker 2: literally good for no reason.
- 7:00Speaker 3: This is exactly how I've felt about Cardinals fans for
- 7:03Speaker 3: my entire feels so seen.
- 7:07Speaker 4: You get to be good no matter what because just
- 7:08Speaker 4: because you're a Cardinal. Yes, all these comments drip of
- 7:13Speaker 4: that sort of feeling.
- 7:14Speaker 2: They play the Cardinals and then like, hey we got
- 7:18Speaker 2: a chance today. They're sitting there sitting uh pooholz And
- 7:21Speaker 2: and Molina and Edmonds and then the three guys in
- 7:24Speaker 2: for them combined to go seven for ten with eight
- 7:27Speaker 2: rbs and just shoves skip skip and ship Skip Schumacher
- 7:31Speaker 2: and guys like that just bury it.
- 7:32Speaker 4: It's like that sucks, but it drips up there entitlement.
- 7:35Speaker 4: I mean, true Cardinals fans field, they're the ones that
- 7:37Speaker 4: should be winning as a baseline, They're the ones that
- 7:40Speaker 4: things should be things go right for them. You know,
- 7:42Speaker 4: Cubs fans feel that, oh, we're the ones that should
- 7:45Speaker 4: be having good things happen for us, not the Brewers,
- 7:48Speaker 4: And that's their their frustration. Even though I've done that
- 7:50Speaker 4: as a Packers fan, you know, I've had that frustration.
- 7:54Speaker 4: You just feel like we've been around where that team
- 7:56Speaker 4: let us win. Yeah, I used another fan from the Cardinals.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Here's what they want to happen today. Turio gets plunked
- 8:04Speaker 4: due to your rebase celebration. The bench is clear, Ali
- 8:08Speaker 4: Marmal gets tossed, Cardinals come back and win late, the
- 8:11Speaker 4: season gets turned around, and they sweep the Cubs at
- 8:13Speaker 4: home after this, all right.
- 8:15Speaker 3: Okay, I can I can vouch for some of that,
- 8:17Speaker 3: Like I think, I think it'd be interesting to see
- 8:19Speaker 3: some of that happen. I definitely would like to see
- 8:21Speaker 3: them sweep the Cubs because that would be more fun
- 8:23Speaker 3: to see and enjoy. And by the way, they're on
- 8:24Speaker 3: Sunday Night Baseball this weekend. Crazy how that happens. But
- 8:28Speaker 3: you see a group that and a fan base that
- 8:32Speaker 3: it seemed like for the majority last two years, Drew
- 8:35Speaker 3: desperately wanted Marmal fired.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 8:37Speaker 3: There, They've been calling for Marmel's job, damn near since
- 8:41Speaker 3: he got it, and here they finally got a little
- 8:44Speaker 3: bit of something cooking with some young players, and we'll
- 8:46Speaker 3: see if he ends up being the manager that is
- 8:49Speaker 3: able to possibly take them across the finish line. Generally,
- 8:54Speaker 3: your rebuild manager is not the winning manager. They find
- 8:57Speaker 3: somebody else.
- 8:57Speaker 1: To be able to do the winning and take you
- 8:59Speaker 1: over the hump.
- 9:00Speaker 3: But they've been a lot more patient than anybody else,
- 9:03Speaker 3: and they get a little taste in their own medicine.
- 9:06Speaker 3: Because as Coleman Crow, I was a little disappointed to
- 9:09Speaker 3: not hear that in Hunter's report. I was hoping Coleman
- 9:11Speaker 3: Crow was going to be the guy to get the
- 9:13Speaker 3: majority of the ball here today. Instead it's going to
- 9:15Speaker 3: be mostly according to the Hunter, potentially jam Patrick. It
- 9:20Speaker 3: felt like for the majority of my lifetime, the Cardinals
- 9:22Speaker 3: were always bringing up a Coleman Crow, always some random
- 9:26Speaker 3: ass name that you have no idea how the alliteration
- 9:28Speaker 3: gets sled through, and then the guy goes six and
- 9:31Speaker 3: a third to one hit ball.
- 9:32Speaker 4: Yeah, And that's just the way it is when you
- 9:33Speaker 4: have a strong organization. The Cardinals have had it for
- 9:35Speaker 4: a long time and the Brewers are enjoying that consistency now.
- 9:38Speaker 2: Another Cardinals fan account. My completely unbiased opinion is that
- 9:42Speaker 2: I love when players show emotion. I'm cool with bat flips,
- 9:45Speaker 2: the screams, and even the thrusts, just not a fan
- 9:48Speaker 2: of doing it at the opposing team's dugout. That's kind
- 9:50Speaker 2: of bs, especially when you have a four point one
- 9:52Speaker 2: to nine er and a non competitive game.
- 9:55Speaker 1: The non competitive game is the part that I can hear.
- 9:58Speaker 1: That's the one.
- 9:58Speaker 4: It wasn't like you got a huge jam and it
- 10:01Speaker 4: was basis loaded, Noah, it's you were a down one
- 10:03Speaker 4: and you had to absolutely blow a guy away and
- 10:05Speaker 4: there was big time energy. It was a six to
- 10:07Speaker 4: nothing kind of game, like what was this the time
- 10:11Speaker 4: to do it? I mean it was almost wood for
- 10:12Speaker 4: the reserve time, like territory, like.
- 10:14Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It was almost like Almo.
- 10:17Speaker 3: You know when most of the whole team jumps into
- 10:20Speaker 3: the stands for a Lambeau leap.
- 10:21Speaker 1: A lot of times that's in a four touchdown game.
- 10:23Speaker 1: I'll give you it. I'll give you that.
- 10:25Speaker 3: That's generally in one of those games that's far out
- 10:28Speaker 3: of reach. Rarely does that always happen for a Brandon
- 10:31Speaker 3: McManus game winner there against the Texans a year and
- 10:34Speaker 3: a half.
- 10:34Speaker 4: Now, The at the t at the opposing team theory
- 10:37Speaker 4: is interesting. That's kind of a baseball thing like don't
- 10:39Speaker 4: taunt like you you can't taunt, you can celebrate. So
- 10:42Speaker 4: when the Giants hit thrust each other, it's fine, you know.
- 10:45Speaker 4: The San Francisco giants are still doing that, even though
- 10:48Speaker 4: that was kind of a not outlawed but people were
- 10:50Speaker 4: looking sideways at it.
- 10:51Speaker 1: But you know, I could see that the issue being okay.
- 10:54Speaker 4: So I do think it's gonna be interesting who leads
- 10:56Speaker 4: off of the Brewers today, Like Murph has to be
- 10:58Speaker 4: a little great careful about who leads off because they
- 11:01Speaker 4: are going to be in danger.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Right And you rebate did uh he It goes back
- 11:06Speaker 2: to Herrera the Catcher, like he buzzed the Tower of two.
- 11:09Speaker 1: Oh, don't be thrown up there at me.
- 11:12Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I mean maybe your rebate just needed
- 11:14Speaker 4: something to create in his head to get fired up
- 11:17Speaker 4: in a six nothing game.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Are the Cardinals? The are the Cardinals?
- 11:20Speaker 3: His version of the guy that crossed Michael Jordan that
- 11:24Speaker 3: apparently said something, uh Smith, Bradford Smith.
- 11:28Speaker 1: He told me, he told me a good game at
- 11:30Speaker 1: half tame. Yeah, that ever happened.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Hey, listen, if your rebate needs that and he's become
- 11:35Speaker 3: this Jordan of closing, I'm fine with that.
- 11:37Speaker 4: I get you know, I'll be honest with you. It's
- 11:39Speaker 4: a little bit taunting. But Murph yelled at him, and
- 11:41Speaker 4: he appolled so I feel like marm punts it. He said, Hey,
- 11:44Speaker 4: I think Murph Handle is taking care of it. I
- 11:46Speaker 4: guess I'm past it now because of that, Like there
- 11:49Speaker 4: are some people that are really upset about it. I
- 11:51Speaker 4: guess I didn't expect that much anger. I expected a
- 11:54Speaker 4: little bit from Cardinal fans of how dare you?
- 11:57Speaker 1: But you know, I like you.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Armann posts and we always try to post and find
- 12:01Speaker 3: different ways that you can find the show. And if
- 12:03Speaker 3: you haven't been able to view the show, stream the
- 12:05Speaker 3: show YouTube always available Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin, or you
- 12:09Speaker 3: can hit us up on all of our social media
- 12:10Speaker 3: pages and at armand sorry and always posts the the
- 12:13Speaker 3: video with with a thought a question.
- 12:16Speaker 1: Look quip and he said.
- 12:17Speaker 3: Yesterday, just a couple of minutes ago, how do you
- 12:19Speaker 3: feel about abnue Rebay Celebration Hour two is live? Our
- 12:22Speaker 3: friend Don and Brookfield said, it's fine. Now let's talk
- 12:25Speaker 3: about PCA trying to hit a fan behind third base
- 12:27Speaker 3: with an erratic throw. I like the Alec Brewers fans
- 12:29Speaker 3: are just off and in the more of dunking on
- 12:32Speaker 3: different hubs fans. Let's find a way to move right
- 12:35Speaker 3: past this. That's fine, but remember PCA just airmailed one
- 12:39Speaker 3: over the third base that I sent to Armon as
- 12:42Speaker 3: it looked like he was about to just gun the
- 12:43Speaker 3: guy in there at third. He has the yips, doesn't
- 12:46Speaker 3: it seem that way. It seems like it seem that
- 12:48Speaker 3: he might be cursed by our socks bride.
- 12:50Speaker 4: He's so you know, every piece of data talks about
- 12:54Speaker 4: and shows to say he's a great defensive player. Yet
- 12:56Speaker 4: he keeps making these plays that are kind of inexplicable.
- 12:59Speaker 4: So I don't know if he's got the chuck knoblock
- 13:01Speaker 4: like yips totally where he can't make a throw.
- 13:03Speaker 3: But it seems like, I'll tell you this hot take
- 13:06Speaker 3: hump day, I'm I'm all in on the Brewers fan
- 13:09Speaker 3: pages saying we should be trying to find some wedding
- 13:11Speaker 3: gifts for that young.
- 13:12Speaker 1: Lady and her her significant out there we go.
- 13:14Speaker 3: I mean, like, if if indeed she put a Dan
- 13:16Speaker 3: housen s curse on the Cubs and and PCA and
- 13:20Speaker 3: gave him the yips, probably need to send an edible
- 13:23Speaker 3: arrangement to that, to that celebration, maybe to the maybe
- 13:26Speaker 3: to the bridal shower.
- 13:27Speaker 1: That feels like a better place for that gift to
- 13:29Speaker 1: be able to go nice gift. We don't.
- 13:30Speaker 3: We don't want to take wedding night. We'll just drop
- 13:32Speaker 3: him off at the at the shower. Let him know,
- 13:34Speaker 3: here's a nice toaster for you. Dobbler says, good morning.
- 13:37Speaker 4: Anytime you can poke the Cardinals, the ire of the Cardinals,
- 13:39Speaker 4: you do it, no regrets.
- 13:40Speaker 1: Dobbler shoming on the YouTube.
- 13:42Speaker 4: As Billy mentioned, you can always get in there also
- 13:43Speaker 4: smash that subscribe button. Good to hear from Dobbler after
- 13:47Speaker 4: Garrett Mitchell Homer. Usually we don't so, but I see it.
- 13:51Speaker 4: Definitely avoided that. But yes, we're always happy to to
- 13:53Speaker 4: poke the bear a little bit when it's the Cardinals.
- 13:55Speaker 1: Now, you do have one more to go today, that's right.
- 13:57Speaker 1: I hope to one more into the off day.
- 13:59Speaker 2: You gotta get reading now and go for the sweep
- 14:01Speaker 2: now and just put them in their place.
- 14:03Speaker 3: I just think Abnuere your Rebay should change his walk
- 14:05Speaker 3: up music to the d X entrance song.
- 14:07Speaker 1: I mean, like he's just a big.
- 14:10Speaker 3: And then he walks right out there, HiT's the triple
- 14:14Speaker 3: h waters spit right as he gets to the mound.
- 14:16Speaker 3: I mean there's some there's some stuff we could be
- 14:18Speaker 3: doing to making abnue your Rebay some money here.
- 14:20Speaker 1: That's good thing. I got you to interpret those. Help
- 14:22Speaker 1: him out, Help them out, dude.
- 14:24Speaker 3: Oh goll right, hot takes eight seven seven seven, lot
- 14:27Speaker 3: of troubling doing the d X ninety seven to three,
- 14:29Speaker 3: did you?
- 14:30Speaker 1: Oh god true.
- 14:32Speaker 3: Everybody was doing the DX in the in the late
- 14:34Speaker 3: nineties early two thousands.
- 14:36Speaker 1: I mean that was it was a big one.
- 14:38Speaker 3: You score a touchdown in recess football, you were doing
- 14:41Speaker 3: one of two things, spiking the ball right through the
- 14:44Speaker 3: ground or hitting the DX.
- 14:45Speaker 1: I like it was. That was just gonna have to
- 14:47Speaker 1: be the case. It's fantastic.
- 14:49Speaker 4: It was popular. But the question, yeah, maybe maybe your
- 14:51Speaker 4: Rebay is just a big wrestling fan. Well, you know,
- 14:54Speaker 4: no one came up with that possibility. Maybe that was
- 14:56Speaker 4: just what he was doing. Could be maybe he is
- 14:58Speaker 4: like Giannis right, like a lot of them. Yeah, no
- 15:01Speaker 4: doubt about it, like a lot a lot of athletes.
- 15:03Speaker 4: Continue hit us up eight seven seven seven nine four
- 15:05Speaker 4: one ninety seven three. Well, if you're just joining us,
- 15:08Speaker 4: it's not that we're ignoring the Josh Jacobs story. We
- 15:10Speaker 4: did talk about it at length earlier today, and we
- 15:12Speaker 4: will continue and again position of this program is that
- 15:15Speaker 4: it's as crass as it may be. The packers have
- 15:18Speaker 4: to have discussions about what might happen, and you know,
- 15:22Speaker 4: what would life look like without Josh Jacobs. You have
- 15:24Speaker 4: to have those discussions like he is afforded and he
- 15:27Speaker 4: is entitled to do process and the presumption of innocence
- 15:30Speaker 4: like everyone in our legal system.
- 15:33Speaker 1: However, this does come.
- 15:36Speaker 2: It is a little bit different in that this packers
- 15:38Speaker 2: are seen as a public trust right and his employment
- 15:42Speaker 2: will be a or or perhaps his non employment. Will
- 15:46Speaker 2: it be a topic for people, Yeah.
- 15:49Speaker 1: It might be.
- 15:49Speaker 3: But then when you look at the free agent running
- 15:51Speaker 3: back list and the number one name is Joe Mixon,
- 15:55Speaker 3: I mean my Robin Peter Papel, might.
- 15:56Speaker 1: It might not be. It might not be the right spot,
- 15:58Speaker 1: might might not be. You might not be the right exchange.
- 16:00Speaker 3: It might not be the right guy to bring you start.
- 16:02Speaker 3: You start looking at the exchange right here. Hey, Daria
- 16:05Speaker 3: uh uh Dara is available as well. We could grab
- 16:09Speaker 3: him in here. And I is a thirty two years
- 16:10Speaker 3: old that might not be exactly talking about it your own.
- 16:13Speaker 2: Marshawn Lloyd's gonna get some tots today and chances and
- 16:16Speaker 2: OTAs and make.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Sure that Hammy's ready.
- 16:18Speaker 2: Eleven oh five, Matt Lafleur is going to meet with
- 16:20Speaker 2: the local media, and that's gonna be a question one
- 16:23Speaker 2: and again I'm not I'll waive the consulting fee, but
- 16:26Speaker 2: PR one on one is like, all right, before we
- 16:29Speaker 2: get started. We know where are aware of the situation
- 16:31Speaker 2: with Josh Jacobs. It's a legal matter. We're investigating. The
- 16:34Speaker 2: league is investigating. Yeah, I can't say are investigating too,
- 16:39Speaker 2: And we don't have all the information. Therefore I can't
- 16:42Speaker 2: comment on it, and I will not be able to
- 16:44Speaker 2: tell you anything about Josh Jacobs.
- 16:46Speaker 3: And I appreciate all the questions that are still about
- 16:48Speaker 3: to come in here, but just so you know, i'll
- 16:51Speaker 3: answer it with I put back to my first segment,
- 16:54Speaker 3: or to my first day, to my firstment.
- 16:56Speaker 1: I can't comment about it. We don't know enough yet.
- 16:58Speaker 1: We want Josh to be on our football team, but
- 17:01Speaker 1: at this point we don't know his status period a
- 17:04Speaker 1: little bit like an injury thing. We just don't know. Yeah,
- 17:06Speaker 1: we just don't know.
- 17:07Speaker 2: Like he's able to say, he's able to say, I
- 17:09Speaker 2: haven't talked to the trainers when like you know it,
- 17:11Speaker 2: Guy Blew out his ACL on field test.
- 17:13Speaker 1: But I haven't talked to the trainers yet side, and
- 17:15Speaker 1: so give him that.
- 17:16Speaker 2: And you can't get mad at that because there's nothing
- 17:18Speaker 2: they can say. People got mad at the statements from
- 17:21Speaker 2: the packers in the NFL is like we're aware of
- 17:23Speaker 2: it and we're in contact, Like that's all they can say.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Like all you can else you can do right.
- 17:27Speaker 3: Now, and and you just you just hope that there's
- 17:31Speaker 3: something good that can come out of it. And more
- 17:33Speaker 3: than anything, you just hope that the whole legal process
- 17:36Speaker 3: plays out correctly, because we've seen with cases like this
- 17:39Speaker 3: where there's too many, too many cooks in the kitchen,
- 17:42Speaker 3: our thoughts already made before the final judgment comes through.
- 17:46Speaker 2: Absolutely all right eight seven seven seven nine seven three
- 17:49Speaker 2: gets you to the Nicola Law dot Com talk and
- 17:51Speaker 2: text line, get us your hot takes on just about anything. Brewers,
- 17:55Speaker 2: the Cubs skid. If the Cubs lose two more games,
- 17:58Speaker 2: do we get free burgers from George Webb for a
- 18:00Speaker 2: Cubs losing streak or from from a Billy goat.
- 18:03Speaker 3: Perhaps I'm gonna say maybe they go with the Cubs version.
- 18:05Speaker 3: They just get a couple of eggs or something. Everybody
- 18:07Speaker 3: gets a free two pair of wheatcakes. Hey, come on,
- 18:10Speaker 3: Wiener Circle, where are you now, Let's get those free
- 18:12Speaker 3: wieners out there, those free hot dogs.
- 18:14Speaker 1: Huh. Murph would have taken his shirt off me.
- 18:16Speaker 2: Yeah. Now maybe I don't think the Cubs haven't won
- 18:19Speaker 2: since the owner of the Billy Goat Tavern passed on
- 18:22Speaker 2: May fifteenth, So maybe that's it.
- 18:24Speaker 1: Oh man, Oh wow, yeah, is that real? Yeah, well
- 18:28Speaker 1: there is a curse then, holy cow. Yeah, that's kind
- 18:32Speaker 1: of wild. Actually, is that why I am died? Like
- 18:34Speaker 1: Hyder boys go up four eyes? So that's that's amazing
- 18:38Speaker 1: that that's actually real. Oh my gosh, Well this is true.
- 18:42Speaker 1: Believe it. Just like the Socks Bride.
- 18:44Speaker 2: When we come back, Scott Dolphin is going to join
- 18:47Speaker 2: the party. He's back from his vacation. We'll talk to
- 18:49Speaker 2: Dolph from the contry station down the hall. That is next,

- 19:17Speaker 2: an extended holiday weekend.
- 19:19Speaker 5: How's it going, Dolph? Yeah it was awesome, It was amazing,
- 19:21Speaker 5: I said. The more sleep I get, the more I
- 19:23Speaker 5: love sleeping. Just you forget how much you miss sleep,
- 19:29Speaker 5: you know, and you just don't get a lot of
- 19:30Speaker 5: it during the week.
- 19:31Speaker 1: Like if you get up early. It is kind of nice.
- 19:34Speaker 5: If you're on the show, if you're listening to show,
- 19:36Speaker 5: you don't get a lot of sleep, probably you're up early, right,
- 19:38Speaker 5: So yeah, I really enjoyed my sleep. And then on
- 19:40Speaker 5: top of that, some hiking and some golf over the
- 19:42Speaker 5: weekend as well.
- 19:43Speaker 2: Not shabby, not a bad Like that is a veteran
- 19:46Speaker 2: movie one might be copying next year. Take the Friday
- 19:49Speaker 2: and the Tuesday off around Memorial Day and turn that
- 19:51Speaker 2: into a little mini vak.
- 19:53Speaker 4: Do it.
- 19:53Speaker 1: It's your turn, Drew, I'll take the show next there,
- 19:56Speaker 1: next year. You got it?
- 19:56Speaker 2: Oh, fantastic, fantastic, all right, so plenty to talk about,
- 20:00Speaker 2: and Duff, we're we're not tiptoeing around it. But we're
- 20:03Speaker 2: trying to have a nuanced discussion about Josh Jacobs and
- 20:06Speaker 2: the charges. And like the packer's done a pretty good
- 20:08Speaker 2: job in recent vintage of staying off the police blodder.
- 20:11Speaker 2: And here we are with one of their captains, one
- 20:13Speaker 2: of their marquee guys in it, and we you know,
- 20:16Speaker 2: your first instinct is, well, you know, you got to
- 20:19Speaker 2: remember that he gets due processed like everybody else and
- 20:22Speaker 2: has to play out, and we got to give it
- 20:23Speaker 2: some time.
- 20:24Speaker 1: But there are some folks who will say they.
- 20:25Speaker 2: Should he should be released, and you know, no question
- 20:29Speaker 2: to ask others that say, got to give him the
- 20:31Speaker 2: benefit of the doubt in any event, they have to
- 20:33Speaker 2: start thinking about other options, right, It's like, that's not
- 20:35Speaker 2: crass for us.
- 20:36Speaker 1: To talk about.
- 20:37Speaker 5: Well, absolutely, when you start thinking of situations when it
- 20:39Speaker 5: comes to domestic violence, you think of guys like Ray
- 20:42Speaker 5: Rice and course you know there was major video. Oh yeah,
- 20:46Speaker 5: but you know, to me, the first thing that came
- 20:48Speaker 5: to mind was obviously something happened there. And it just
- 20:51Speaker 5: goes to show you, I don't care how much money
- 20:53Speaker 5: you have or how you're riding on top of the world.
- 20:55Speaker 5: Money can't buy happiness if you've got problems in your life.
- 20:58Speaker 5: And that's a that's a prime example of it right there.
- 21:01Speaker 5: But god, I just it's you know, you read the
- 21:03Speaker 5: accusations and you're like, wow, this is heavy, serious stuff here.
- 21:07Speaker 5: And like you said, Drew, he's got to have due
- 21:09Speaker 5: process here. This doesn't mean it, ac That's just it.
- 21:13Speaker 5: That's just it. I remember there was a guy in
- 21:15Speaker 5: country music several years ago that was accused of strangulation
- 21:20Speaker 5: trying to smother his ex wife with a pillow. Turns
- 21:23Speaker 5: out a lot of it didn't happen at all, and
- 21:26Speaker 5: he walked. His name's Rodney Atkins. He's still around to
- 21:28Speaker 5: this day. He's still performing and touring. And and she
- 21:31Speaker 5: came out and said, you know, her emotions got the
- 21:33Speaker 5: better of her. And so you know, you don't know
- 21:35Speaker 5: what happened here until we start getting a lot more
- 21:38Speaker 5: of this story.
- 21:38Speaker 2: Yeah, and we don't, but you have to, Like Billy,
- 21:41Speaker 2: we were saying, we when it comes to the final
- 21:43Speaker 2: roster cuts, we try to get ourselves and put ourselves
- 21:45Speaker 2: into their offices and try to make the decisions. Like
- 21:47Speaker 2: we're trying to put ourselves into that, Like what are
- 21:49Speaker 2: they talking about, like what are the what's the free
- 21:52Speaker 2: agent list look like of running backs?
- 21:53Speaker 1: Do we need insurance?
- 21:55Speaker 3: What if'sin Eckler and Agie Harris help us?
- 21:58Speaker 1: He's not gone?
- 21:58Speaker 2: Will he be suspended for the disciplinary like the league
- 22:02Speaker 2: like you have to worry about this stuff.
- 22:03Speaker 1: And and that could be lengthy, right, Yeah, And.
- 22:06Speaker 3: That's that's again where like if you're if you're upset
- 22:09Speaker 3: about the Packers statement of it, they really don't have much. Uh,
- 22:13Speaker 3: there's nothing else they can say as well as the
- 22:15Speaker 3: legal process and the NFL will have their process.
- 22:18Speaker 1: And then they find out like all of us do
- 22:20Speaker 1: at the exact same time.
- 22:21Speaker 2: And at this point, well, first of all, we don't
- 22:23Speaker 2: know if Josh Jacobs has been released yet, like if
- 22:25Speaker 2: he's still.
- 22:26Speaker 3: In no, I would assume later today on his arraune.
- 22:28Speaker 3: I think they said it as a rainment was two
- 22:29Speaker 3: o'clock today, rainment today and then released. But then so
- 22:32Speaker 3: the Packers like probably haven't talked to him.
- 22:35Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, they can't know what's happened. So I know
- 22:38Speaker 2: there was anger about the spam. Well even put out a statement.
- 22:40Speaker 2: If you can't, well that's all.
- 22:42Speaker 1: There is because if you didn't, you have to.
- 22:44Speaker 3: People would be pissed about that say something right right,
- 22:46Speaker 3: Yeah it is what it is.
- 22:48Speaker 1: Yeah, that is it's.
- 22:50Speaker 4: Never gonna be good like and there's nothing good that
- 22:51Speaker 4: someone could say or do.
- 22:53Speaker 2: And in this situation, we were saying before a Dolph
- 22:55Speaker 2: that you know, sports reflects society, and domestic violence isn't
- 22:59Speaker 2: just a worst problem or a football problem to a
- 23:01Speaker 2: societal problem. And sports reflects society. Sports are part of society.
- 23:06Speaker 2: So can't really separate the two.
- 23:08Speaker 5: Yeah, as far as the Packers go, when it when
- 23:11Speaker 5: this when and maybe the activations are going to be
- 23:13Speaker 5: downright ugly when this police department releases him. But the
- 23:16Speaker 5: good news, I guess if you're Green Bay bad news
- 23:19Speaker 5: good news, bad news is he's one of the top
- 23:21Speaker 5: two running backs in the league in my opinion. The
- 23:23Speaker 5: good news is it is the running back position where
- 23:26Speaker 5: you can get production.
- 23:28Speaker 1: From a lot of dudes.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Fair.
- 23:29Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 23:30Speaker 5: I don't know about Josh Jacobs production, but you can
- 23:31Speaker 5: get production from a lot of dudes.
- 23:33Speaker 1: It's not like you know, you're losing your QB. No.
- 23:36Speaker 3: And from a football perspective as well, last year was
- 23:38Speaker 3: one of his down years. Right, doesn't even doesn't crack
- 23:40Speaker 3: a thousand yards. He was often somewhat dinged up, hampered,
- 23:44Speaker 3: I think is probably the better way of putting it.
- 23:45Speaker 3: Like he didn't miss a ton of time, missed a
- 23:48Speaker 3: couple of games, but it was more of like lingering
- 23:50Speaker 3: problems with his help throughout the year. Uh. And it's
- 23:54Speaker 3: it's one of those where you balance it. You were
- 23:56Speaker 3: thinking bounce back here.
- 23:57Speaker 1: Maybe not.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Maybe you can very easily replace nine hundred rushing yards,
- 24:01Speaker 3: like you should you think that you'd be able to.
- 24:04Speaker 3: But the ground game was one of their biggest problems
- 24:06Speaker 3: last year. That their inability to manufacture anything productive in
- 24:11Speaker 3: the run game was one of the biggest reasons why
- 24:13Speaker 3: their offense struggled to find a lot of consistency throughout
- 24:16Speaker 3: the year.
- 24:16Speaker 2: There's a lot of Uh. In sports, we get these
- 24:19Speaker 2: controversies sometimes I call them nontroversies, where we get worked
- 24:22Speaker 2: up about stuff that's not a big deal. But you
- 24:24Speaker 2: got the Josh Jacobs thing, you got the Abner Reibe
- 24:27Speaker 2: triple chop to the Cardinals dugout, which was unseemly and
- 24:32Speaker 2: has been addressed, And we'll see what the ramifications are there.
- 24:35Speaker 2: Like you think with the league step in and say, oh,
- 24:38Speaker 2: you rebe you can't do that.
- 24:39Speaker 1: That's a game suspension or something like that.
- 24:41Speaker 3: I think you'd get fined. I don't think right, I
- 24:44Speaker 3: don't think so. Unless something today, then he's lucky he's
- 24:48Speaker 3: not hitting in this series.
- 24:50Speaker 1: Then.
- 24:50Speaker 2: Meanwhile, back here among the tire and Strip club ads,
- 24:52Speaker 2: we had an NBA Conference final game where Wemby, one
- 24:55Speaker 2: of the stars of the league, face the league. He
- 24:57Speaker 2: dipped out on reporters last night and didn't talk about
- 25:00Speaker 2: his or for fifteen shooting performance and the fact that
- 25:02Speaker 2: he was bottled up in a key game and they're
- 25:04Speaker 2: facing elimination, and Hartenstein seen we've seen guys do this,
- 25:09Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and Carusoe like we've seen guys do this before.
- 25:12Speaker 2: I remember Brett Favre through the six picks in the
- 25:14Speaker 2: playoff game against the Rams and then dipped and didn't
- 25:17Speaker 2: talk to the media and he got crushed for it.
- 25:19Speaker 3: I'm interested to see also how the national media will
- 25:22Speaker 3: handle that a little bit, because you know, there's a
- 25:23Speaker 3: lot of shows that will be talking about that game
- 25:25Speaker 3: today and a lot of people Billy, as we know,
- 25:27Speaker 3: love Wemby in the national media.
- 25:29Speaker 1: So you had to kind of explain around this one.
- 25:31Speaker 3: I mean, freaking Florio yesterday posts a picture before the
- 25:35Speaker 3: game are like a gift of Wemby twenty minutes until
- 25:38Speaker 3: Wemby starts.
- 25:39Speaker 1: Oh cool, all right, sweet, I'm still waiting for him
- 25:41Speaker 1: to start.
- 25:43Speaker 3: He ends up with the second worst field goal percentage
- 25:45Speaker 3: in a playoff game by a player taller than seven
- 25:47Speaker 3: to two, and he was I think the more even
- 25:50Speaker 3: more non existent part than his four for fifteen. He
- 25:53Speaker 3: had six rebounds and only three blocks. I mean, there's
- 25:56Speaker 3: a dude that had over seventeen boards in games in
- 25:59Speaker 3: this series.
- 26:00Speaker 1: He was.
- 26:00Speaker 3: He was somewhat m i A yesterday, and he's fun
- 26:02Speaker 3: to watch, there's no question about it.
- 26:03Speaker 4: But a lot of times in the road it gets tough.
- 26:05Speaker 4: In the playoffs. You are going to hit adversity, even
- 26:07Speaker 4: for great players. Role players play better at home. That's
- 26:10Speaker 4: the way it goes. And Wemby hit that. So you
- 26:12Speaker 4: have to find a way to get over it. But
- 26:14Speaker 4: this is what the national media wants that they want
- 26:15Speaker 4: the Knicks. They want to Knicks against Wimby, and the
- 26:18Speaker 4: Knicks against Oklahoma City might be a great series.
- 26:22Speaker 5: I think okay See would probably win that series. But
- 26:24Speaker 5: but they want Wimby. They want Wemby against the Knicks.
- 26:28Speaker 5: I had to I was off yesterday. I had to
- 26:30Speaker 5: turn off ESPN.
- 26:31Speaker 1: Oh my god, the salom they just kept coming out
- 26:35Speaker 1: of my tea so excited. Oh my goodness, they're so wow.
- 26:39Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't realize it had been twenty some
- 26:41Speaker 1: years since they twenty seven years. You'll hear it.
- 26:43Speaker 3: You'll hear it for the next week and a half
- 26:45Speaker 3: as they're all off and watching Jalen Brunson sit on
- 26:47Speaker 3: his couch with his dog on that picture and post
- 26:48Speaker 3: it throughout. But you're right, they want Wenby against the Knicks.
- 26:52Speaker 3: They they're so happy that the Knicks are in, but
- 26:54Speaker 3: also the Spurs a better chance for them to win
- 26:56Speaker 3: the series, right like I think last night also, uh
- 27:00Speaker 3: clap back to a lot of people's minds.
- 27:01Speaker 1: Of oh wait, Oklahoma City is that team.
- 27:05Speaker 3: They kind of actually might be that giant when they
- 27:09Speaker 3: get McCain, who's over here doing TikTok videos all throughout
- 27:12Speaker 3: his time at Duke dropping down three triples and scoring
- 27:15Speaker 3: twenty and Caruso coming off the bench score their death,
- 27:17Speaker 3: their death, I mean, as Jay wasn't even all that
- 27:19Speaker 3: great last.
- 27:20Speaker 5: Now their death was incredible. It's incredibly hard to win
- 27:22Speaker 5: back to back at the NBA. We saw that as
- 27:24Speaker 5: Bucks fans in twenty twenty two. Man, and for them
- 27:27Speaker 5: to make it look at it to this point anyway,
- 27:29Speaker 5: to make it look relatively easy.
- 27:31Speaker 2: Got to tip your cap also deeper into the section
- 27:34Speaker 2: back by the tired Strip Club ads Billy's Las Vegas
- 27:37Speaker 2: Golden Knights won, and now the Colorado Avalanche are just
- 27:43Speaker 2: dazed and confused and wandering into that offseason going what
- 27:46Speaker 2: the hell happened? We won the President's Trophy where the
- 27:48Speaker 2: best team in This is the most shocking sweep in
- 27:50Speaker 2: the last ten years.
- 27:50Speaker 4: And they were Wagon until they ran into the Vegas Knights.
- 27:54Speaker 5: Well, it's dumbfounding. They were the best team in hockey
- 27:56Speaker 5: right and everybody's eyes. Now, I know they had some injuries.
- 27:59Speaker 2: But still this is this is Colorado is feeling like
- 28:02Speaker 2: the Brewers said, Hey, we won ninety seven games most
- 28:04Speaker 2: of the league and we got steamrolled by by the Dodgers.
- 28:07Speaker 1: Stoner coming what happened? Like, you know, so that they're
- 28:12Speaker 1: they're going through.
- 28:13Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean now they're they're two top guys going
- 28:15Speaker 3: down and mccar missing the first two games might be
- 28:17Speaker 3: one of the best players in the league obvious in
- 28:19Speaker 3: the first two games. That was a huge one and
- 28:21Speaker 3: McKinnon blocked a shot in Game three off of his
- 28:24Speaker 3: knee and it's just not been the same player. Was
- 28:27Speaker 3: not the same player for the next five periods or
- 28:29Speaker 3: socks where last night, I mean he was. They were
- 28:32Speaker 3: just offense defensing him for a majority of the first
- 28:35Speaker 3: two periods, and then later on into the game he's like, Hey,
- 28:37Speaker 3: by the way, I'm just gonna stay out here as
- 28:39Speaker 3: long as I can. I can't really move very well,
- 28:41Speaker 3: but I'm gonna stay out here and try to provide
- 28:43Speaker 3: some kind of offense.
- 28:44Speaker 1: And they just were unable to. Man.
- 28:46Speaker 3: John Tortorella has been unbelievable. They didn't lose with him
- 28:49Speaker 3: as the coach. Yeah, during the regular season, they've steamrolled
- 28:51Speaker 3: through the playoffs. And it's good when you get your
- 28:53Speaker 3: captain Mark Stone back in here. Stoner putting pucks into
- 28:56Speaker 3: the net. That's what we need.
- 28:57Speaker 4: You know, if you ever think really good, have you
- 28:59Speaker 4: ever think that your team needs a jolt and isn't
- 29:02Speaker 4: getting it done. This is like the poster child example
- 29:05Speaker 4: of everyone's ever gonna have for make a late move
- 29:07Speaker 4: with the coach and hopefully the jole your team.
- 29:09Speaker 1: I mean, the Brewers had that ned Yosdale swame thing
- 29:11Speaker 1: at work to.
- 29:12Speaker 4: Get them to the playoffs, and man, this one has
- 29:14Speaker 4: been quite the example of just what the the infusion
- 29:17Speaker 4: of energy the new coach, Bollens whatever you want to say,
- 29:20Speaker 4: he's been doing it and now they're at their third
- 29:22Speaker 4: Cup final in nine years.
- 29:23Speaker 1: It's amazing.
- 29:24Speaker 4: They love it in Vegas, man, the locals, that's their team.
- 29:26Speaker 4: They're native to that team and they feel that kinship
- 29:29Speaker 4: there more than you'll ever see other sports pro sports
- 29:32Speaker 4: team there.
- 29:33Speaker 2: I feel Aves and the Nuggets in that market could
- 29:36Speaker 2: have people fearing that they're one and done because the
- 29:38Speaker 2: Avs aren't that far removed from winning, and the core
- 29:41Speaker 2: is getting older and the clock is ticking, and then
- 29:43Speaker 2: this was a chance, like they.
- 29:45Speaker 5: You the Brons lose on that dagger of a play
- 29:47Speaker 5: in the Yeah, yes, yeah, It's tough time to be
- 29:53Speaker 5: a Denver sportsman. Of course, on the other side of
- 29:55Speaker 5: the Stanley Cup playoffs, are we gonna see the first
- 29:58Speaker 5: Canadian team hoist up and over thirty years, Well.
- 30:02Speaker 3: It would be very Canada of them. This year to
- 30:05Speaker 3: make it to the Cup final and then finish in
- 30:07Speaker 3: the second place. I think that's what we ultimately want,
- 30:10Speaker 3: is we want them to finish in second and the
- 30:11Speaker 3: Avalanche not only have they done it now. Granted, they
- 30:15Speaker 3: were one of the highest scoring teams in NHL history
- 30:18Speaker 3: and they went eight to one in the first nine
- 30:20Speaker 3: games of the playoffs, but they're not like the thirteenth
- 30:22Speaker 3: straight President's Cup Trophy team. That's the team that ends
- 30:25Speaker 3: the season with the best record in the NHL regular
- 30:27Speaker 3: season to not make the final and not win the final.
- 30:31Speaker 3: So it's fascinating to see that, especially in hockey. Hockey's
- 30:35Speaker 3: probably the one where you could make a move late
- 30:37Speaker 3: because the head coach the first a lot of it, right,
- 30:41Speaker 3: he doesn't necessarily do a ton. We talk about it
- 30:43Speaker 3: a lot with Lafleur. All of a sudden, now you're
- 30:45Speaker 3: firing the offensive coordinator and the head coach, right, the
- 30:48Speaker 3: people that want to make those moves In football, there's
- 30:50Speaker 3: so much different planning to it.
- 30:52Speaker 1: In hockey.
- 30:53Speaker 3: A lot of it is some motivations standing by the
- 30:55Speaker 3: bench and no one went to call the two timeouts yet.
- 30:57Speaker 1: Yeah, and playoff beards. That's also a huge part of it.
- 31:00Speaker 1: That's a really really good part. That's a really good
- 31:02Speaker 1: point off. They got some good ones last time they
- 31:04Speaker 1: saw a clean shaven team.
- 31:06Speaker 3: Yeah, not this lay in the Stanley can't do it
- 31:09Speaker 3: this lane.
- 31:09Speaker 1: Now, Cole Kawfield makes it. He's a little clean shamee.
- 31:12Speaker 3: Not not because of choice, but because I don't know
- 31:15Speaker 3: my man is actually yeah, he is as the barren
- 31:18Speaker 3: as you possibly could have there for the Canadian.
- 31:20Speaker 4: Now for the Canadians, you mentioned it though, I mean
- 31:22Speaker 4: they kind of they kind of missed a little opportunity.
- 31:24Speaker 4: They dominated game one, they lost to and overtime to Carolina.
- 31:27Speaker 3: I'm they got they got dog walked in game three.
- 31:30Speaker 3: I don't know how that game made it to overtime.
- 31:32Speaker 4: Yeah, they were dominated, there's no question about it, but
- 31:34Speaker 4: it was over. So the thing is they had a
- 31:36Speaker 4: couple opportunities to take a to one lead, or even
- 31:38Speaker 4: three to zero, and they lost that chance. So now
- 31:40Speaker 4: they're trying to eat it up tonight at home in Quebec,
- 31:43Speaker 4: in Montreal, and.
- 31:44Speaker 1: That's not the team you want to let off the mat.
- 31:46Speaker 4: No Carolina, No, but you know that Bell Center crowd
- 31:49Speaker 4: they go crazy in Montreal, I mean their home crowd. Yeah,
- 31:52Speaker 4: isn't is incredible, So let's see what kind of energy
- 31:55Speaker 4: they have tonight for Game four.
- 31:57Speaker 1: That's why it's dumbfounding.
- 31:58Speaker 5: And I know there's there's a lot of Canadians and
- 32:00Speaker 5: Russians on every roster, but it's just dumbfounding how the
- 32:03Speaker 5: birthplace of hockey, the cradle of hockey, Canada, has not
- 32:06Speaker 5: had a Stanley Cup champion since was it the Canadian
- 32:10Speaker 5: with Patrick Waugh?
- 32:11Speaker 1: Patrick better believe it?
- 32:13Speaker 3: Yea, It's been that long and hasn't happened in my lifetime,
- 32:16Speaker 3: which is wild to think. It's nice you also have
- 32:20Speaker 3: for for the sport of hockey. You got a night
- 32:23Speaker 3: where it can be just untouched because the next steam
- 32:26Speaker 3: rolled through the playoffs. The NHL's got to be happy
- 32:29Speaker 3: about this because now they have one series that's going
- 32:31Speaker 3: to be undeterred, and then you have the NBA on
- 32:34Speaker 3: the other side. So you're gonna get one game a night,
- 32:36Speaker 3: and we get full appointment viewing through the rest of
- 32:38Speaker 3: the week. Right, it starts with me, and.
- 32:39Speaker 2: Then it's time for Summerfest, right Drew, Yeah, exactly quickly
- 32:43Speaker 2: so and the NBA draft and we're inside, we're already
- 32:47Speaker 2: inside the halfway point of getting closer and closer to football.
- 32:51Speaker 3: So don't worry, everybody. We've reached the halfway point of
- 32:53Speaker 3: the offseason. We're into the hundred days.
- 32:56Speaker 5: Billy just mentioned Phil Steele's College football annual comes out win.
- 33:00Speaker 1: Is it like nine days away? Nine days? Oh my god,
- 33:05Speaker 1: kid in the can until the VI P one comes through.
- 33:08Speaker 1: I don't know who's got.
- 33:09Speaker 4: I love that because that's a billy that's like a
- 33:11Speaker 4: Billy level nerd thing. You know that some people like say,
- 33:14Speaker 4: I want to know what's happen this year, right, I
- 33:16Speaker 4: love that. A lot of new rosters. You got to
- 33:19Speaker 4: start learning in college football.
- 33:20Speaker 5: Yeah, so you're not talking about the actual hard copy
- 33:23Speaker 5: magazine that used to remember those guys would come to
- 33:26Speaker 5: your fantasy show and they'd still have that magazine to
- 33:29Speaker 5: all the paperwork.
- 33:30Speaker 3: Me.
- 33:31Speaker 5: Yeah, you could say, dude, just bring your laptop. You
- 33:33Speaker 5: can get updates like up to the minute.
- 33:35Speaker 1: I subscribe to stuff absolutely and then uh, lastly on
- 33:39Speaker 1: the way I magazine.
- 33:41Speaker 2: The United States men's national team announced for the World Cup,
- 33:45Speaker 2: and there's a Packers connection because Antonio Freeman's son Alex
- 33:48Speaker 2: is on for the squads in Spain right now and he's, uh,
- 33:53Speaker 2: turn it up.
- 33:54Speaker 1: I know it's still like, you.
- 33:56Speaker 3: Know, down the pecking order in this com I'm fired.
- 33:58Speaker 1: Up for the World Cup. I am to watch.
- 34:02Speaker 5: I was happy to see ticket prices have come down
- 34:05Speaker 5: from where they were. They were and they're still ridiculous.
- 34:07Speaker 5: Final which is out in Jersey, but but for the
- 34:10Speaker 5: for the most part, they're coming down and down and down.
- 34:12Speaker 5: I think the cheapest one you can get now is
- 34:14Speaker 5: a one hundred and eighty bucks for I don't know
- 34:16Speaker 5: if it was Paraguay against some European country you've never
- 34:19Speaker 5: heard of.
- 34:20Speaker 4: I didn't see the pairing and then but listen, it
- 34:22Speaker 4: would be electric to go.
- 34:24Speaker 1: It would be they care about it.
- 34:25Speaker 3: They care about this, and over across the world, man,
- 34:27Speaker 3: Kansas City is the closest to the closest one as
- 34:30Speaker 3: a closer take that Chicago about that they're getting the like,
- 34:35Speaker 3: the the the friendly beforehand, that the like the preview
- 34:38Speaker 3: game totally matters.
- 34:40Speaker 1: It doesn't mat doesn't matter if everyone's totally excited.
- 34:42Speaker 4: Like my brother also, you want to go on this,

- 36:48Speaker 2: What do you got for who's hot?
- 36:49Speaker 1: Who's not well? Who would not be hot? Would be
- 36:52Speaker 1: Victor woman Yama.
- 36:53Speaker 3: Last night we mentioned it a little bit with Dolf
- 36:55Speaker 3: there his stat line not Wemby asked twenty points, just
- 36:58Speaker 3: four of fifteen from the floor did go to the
- 37:01Speaker 3: file line twelve times, knocked down all those shots, but
- 37:03Speaker 3: only six boards for the French phenomenon who had been
- 37:08Speaker 3: taken over the world by storm. Instead, it was a
- 37:10Speaker 3: little bit more of the SGA Legacy game that people
- 37:12Speaker 3: were wondering. Thirty two points nine assists, one shy of
- 37:15Speaker 3: a double double and went sixteen to seventeen from the
- 37:18Speaker 3: charity stripe. Whenever they needed a bucket, they went to him.
- 37:20Speaker 1: Yeah, he was able to get to the.
- 37:21Speaker 2: Line because they were bodying them up and making life difficult,
- 37:24Speaker 2: which they've done a good job of. But then he's
- 37:26Speaker 2: a great player, and he got to the line, he'll
- 37:28Speaker 2: beat you one.
- 37:28Speaker 1: Way or the other. Yeah, and drew.
- 37:30Speaker 3: The getting to the line thing is not kind of
- 37:32Speaker 3: falling on deaf years of me. What great player doesn't
- 37:35Speaker 3: go to the line, everybody, What great player doesn't go
- 37:39Speaker 3: to the foul line? Thirteen to fourteen, fifteen times again.
- 37:41Speaker 4: If we had the ball out, they're defended hard and
- 37:43Speaker 4: closer to take the ball to the conflict.
- 37:45Speaker 3: That's the part of it, Jock. The best players always
- 37:49Speaker 3: do and always did so. But but Shay, it just
- 37:52Speaker 3: looks a little different doing it, and instead last night
- 37:54Speaker 3: they were able to do it. Isaiah Hartenstein and Chet
- 37:57Speaker 3: Holmgren both big men for the Thunder with double doubles.
- 38:00Speaker 3: Isaiah Hartenstein was phenomenal, especially defensively against Wemby. But I'd
- 38:04Speaker 3: go in the hot category for u Biz, Mack Biambo
- 38:08Speaker 3: and Mason Plumbley. Yes, Mason Plumley and Bismack Biyambo to
- 38:12Speaker 3: coin our friend Steve Heywood, Biz mac Byambo and Mason Plumbley,
- 38:18Speaker 3: both two minutes played yesterday combined for three of the
- 38:22Speaker 3: hardest foules you'll see all playoffs. Long right after the
- 38:26Speaker 3: video shows Wemby going and giving a quick whisper to
- 38:29Speaker 3: them as he checked out for the final minute and
- 38:31Speaker 3: a half, and they picked up three of the hardest
- 38:34Speaker 3: fouls you're going to see all playoffs. Biyambo put Jared
- 38:37Speaker 3: McCain down, and McCain was on a postgame interview asked
- 38:41Speaker 3: about it and said, man, why'd you hit me like that?
- 38:44Speaker 3: He goes, I got another one for you too, geez,
- 38:47Speaker 3: I got another one for you too.
- 38:49Speaker 1: So Bismack Biambo and Mason Plumley came in on it.
- 38:51Speaker 1: They were hot yesterday, ready to mess around and play,
- 38:54Speaker 1: understood the assignment, understood their job. I guess, wait, this
- 38:57Speaker 1: is why I'm in the game.
- 38:58Speaker 3: This is what this is why I'm in the game.
- 39:00Speaker 3: Got your coach, you're my guy, you're my going. And
- 39:02Speaker 3: then we mentioned earlier when we didn't talk to the
- 39:04Speaker 3: media so very much.
- 39:06Speaker 1: Not hot there.
- 39:07Speaker 4: He's got to figure out because they're going to be
- 39:08Speaker 4: physical with you like that's the way it is.
- 39:11Speaker 1: I understand it can be frustrating.
- 39:12Speaker 4: I understand it might get to you, but you know,
- 39:14Speaker 4: you have to think about these things now and you
- 39:16Speaker 4: have to react accordingly.
- 39:17Speaker 1: And if he canna duck media when you have a
- 39:19Speaker 1: bad game, not a.
- 39:20Speaker 4: Good look, although you probably will get a great look
- 39:22Speaker 4: from national media who love Wemby Right now, the biggest
- 39:25Speaker 4: article I to find on him on I guess paying
- 39:27Speaker 4: dot com was that one of his cards sold for
- 39:28Speaker 4: five point one five point one dollars, So I think
- 39:32Speaker 4: about that, I mean the most for a non autographed card.
- 39:35Speaker 1: I think I saw of all time nuts.
- 39:38Speaker 3: Uh. The other hot category now, Kyle Harrison obviously six innings,
- 39:42Speaker 3: shut out ball. He's been hot for a while. Have
- 39:45Speaker 3: we been taking full account as to just how hot
- 39:47Speaker 3: William Contreras.
- 39:48Speaker 1: Has gotten over the last week?
- 39:50Speaker 3: Is batting average a robust five twenty six and in ops?
- 39:56Speaker 3: Let me know if you guys think this is good
- 39:58Speaker 3: of thirteen oh eight. Wow, that seems to be pretty
- 40:03Speaker 3: solid for wild Bill as he's continuing to heat up,
- 40:07Speaker 3: and he's got his batting average already up to three
- 40:10Speaker 3: oh eight, which you wouldn't think a long time ago
- 40:13Speaker 3: that wouldn't have been the case. That's sixth in all
- 40:15Speaker 3: of baseball for William Cantreras. On the average account, I
- 40:18Speaker 3: know a lot of people don't look at batting average anymore.
- 40:20Speaker 3: I know it's not exactly the most invoke stat. But
- 40:23Speaker 3: he's definitely the best player in this top ten of
- 40:26Speaker 3: batting average, and the Riley Green a pretty good one.
- 40:28Speaker 1: Drake Baldwin just on the.
- 40:29Speaker 3: Outside, but threeh eight wild Bill already up to pretty impressive.
- 40:33Speaker 4: You get him going, you get Yellos Stan lathered up, hopefully,
- 40:36Speaker 4: Garrett Mitchell gets going, Andrew Vaughan, Bryce does his thing.
- 40:39Speaker 1: Now you got something cooking, Yeah, arm and all. It
- 40:41Speaker 1: takes us for every guy to get hot. That's right.
- 40:43Speaker 3: Yeah, that's like when I had simple So I asked
- 40:45Speaker 3: him last year.
- 40:46Speaker 1: Uide to baseball. You know, if the seventh through nine
- 40:48Speaker 1: hitters start hitting, they're gonna be pretty hard to beat. Huh,
- 40:51Speaker 1: might be? Might be? Then you can go thirty and
- 40:53Speaker 1: four in a run.
- 40:54Speaker 2: Well, baby, we got more coming up. Hunter's interview with
- 40:57Speaker 2: Josh Mouer about the Yucher doc. I'm looking forward to.
- 40:59Speaker 2: That's a seventh you're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio,
- 41:01Speaker 2: Wisconsin
