Chuck & Buck 3-18 Hour 4: Who is going to win it all? Placing blame and one last thing! · Chuck in the Morning

• 0:06
  Speaker 1: All right, nine o'clock hour here on this Wednesday, and yeah,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: we're getting ready to a Green Jacket draft. This is
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: how we review major sporting events, and we got a
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: major one starting tomorrow, starting tomorrow. It hasn't started yet.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Those are just games that were played last night. Tomorrow
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: the March Madness gets underway. You can hear it right
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: here at Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM, and
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: make sure you're filling out your bracket for our contest
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: that we do every year at ninety three to three
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: KJR dot com. All right, we'll get to that in
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: a moment, but we do have some hardware to hand out.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: We have our WBC Green Jacket to award to someone.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: And trust me, you haven't heard this song a lot lately. Players.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: We counted total basses. I went into last night's game
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: up one base, one entire base on Bucky. I had
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Schwarber and Akunya, he had Judge and Arise, and there
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: was only one base tallied by all four combined, and
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: that was my guy, Akunya Junior. And so I did
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: win the Green Jacket in our WBC preview, fifty three
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: bases to BUCkies fifty one but I don't know if
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: that's gonna save us all from Bucky.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Dang it.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: There are two outstanding green jacket drafts that are going
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: on our cracking fantasy team, and since Bucky added Bobby McCann,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: he has surpassed Chris Kidd and has a nine point
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: lead right now over Chris.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Wow, let's do that, hockey kid. Yeah, let's not so.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Jared McCann, Jordan Eberley, Capocaco, and now Bobby McMahon being
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: added to Bucky's team might make him too dangerous for
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: a Kid's team of Chandler, Stevenson, Matty Veneer's, gadrou and Larson.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: So you're nine down, Okay, I'm not, I'm not. Bucky
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: also leads our NBA regular season wins. Ashley's been closing
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the gap, but Kid and I have drifted further away. Bucky,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: with the Knicks, Celtics, Clippers, and Pistons, has a nine
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: game lead over Ashley, a sixteen game lead over Kid,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and a twenty game lead over me.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: Well, you guys shouldn't be surprised with all my NBA knowledge.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: So I think this is our unless I'm wrong. I
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: think this is our last draft of the Green Jacket season.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: It always starts anew at the Masters.
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: I think we should probably just come up with some
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: so we have a chance to not let Bucky win this.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: We'll have some drafts, but those are going to be
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: baseball drafts, and those are going to be for those seasons,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: so they're not going to count toward these totals. So
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: for the season, Bucky has six green jackets, Kid has
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: five green jackets, Ashley has four green jackets. Bucky's leading
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the two that are going on right now, and we
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: have this last one to do for our March Madness previews.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: So Bucky's looking good. Kid. You gotta win two of
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the three. You got to come back in hockey, and
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you got to win this one, this March Madness one. Yeah. Yeah,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: thanks a lot, guys.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and Ashley, you gotta win them all.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's not looking to you got a couple
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: of big holes there, Yeah, a couple of big eye holes.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: A couple of big eye holes. That's what I've always
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: been told.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to say I punched my ticket yet
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: because I haven't.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: That's smart. Take that, Yeah, you buddy, I'm glad we
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: got one more in as a matter of fact, we're
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: going to give him more a few more day too.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: All right, So here we go in CAA tournament gets
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: started tomorrow night. We're not going to over complicate this thing.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: We thought of a lot of different ways of doing this.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: So you're just going to draft teams and then whoever
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: has the most total wins will take home the green jacket.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: We are going to force you into taking a double
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: digit seed, so you do have to pick one Cinderella
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: with one of your four picks. Otherwise, pick your pick
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: from the field whoever you'd like, of course, in draft order.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: So we need that draft order. Ashley, what do we got?
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm so excited to give it to you, guys.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Oh Ashley's fourth.
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: Yep, Chuck your first, okay, Bucky your second, kid your third,
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: and look at that surprise, surprise and fourth.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Again, this is a good one to get fourth, I think, Okay,
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: well you can get You're gonna get a number one
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: seed for sure if you want, and the best number
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: two seed probably, but then.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: Again, who knows, because his bracket doesn't always work out there.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, there are a lot of times where the
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: ones having the number one pick really isn't advantageous.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: As really have somebody you want.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: It might be a disadvantage to have the one pick
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of times. But yeah, it does get old
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: to dip the fourth pick, it really does. And Ashley's
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: gotten the fourth pick a lot this past year. So
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe we even changed that for next season.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, the new season's just right around corner.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Masters is coming up.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll discuss, Yeah, we'll discuss it, all right. So
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: I have the number one pick, I don't I think
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: I was going to get this team no matter what.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: The team that I'm picking to win the national championship
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: this year, the team that I think was the most
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: complete that I saw this season. I'm gonna go with
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: the Michigan Wolverines with the number one overall selection.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: She would have gotten them no matter what. I will
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: say that in the first round, in the first round.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, okay, all right.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I think I think Arizona's the hot pick right now
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: and Duke's the number one overall seed right now. But
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: through my eyes, I think they're just the most complete team.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I think they're the team that has the least chance
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: of having a bad game. They're just they're big, they're long,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: they're solid, good starting lineup, good bench play, a good coach.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna take the Michigan Wolverines. To me, they
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: were the best team I saw play college basketball this year.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Just ask the Zags. They beat them by forty. All right, Bucky,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: you got the next selection, Then who are you gonna
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: take the seventh seed? A good promising seventh seed.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: I could, I guess I could go ahead and high point.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: It's a real high point for you there.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: I actually had a high point advancing in the first round.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna take that. I'm not gonna take that
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: with my first round pick. I'm actually gonna go And
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: this is simply based on my boy Ken. He's been
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: to a bunch of Arizona Wildcat games this year, and
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: earlier in the season he had said, I don't think
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: there's a better team in the country now right, some
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: things have been happening, you know, since he mentioned that,
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: But I'm gonna stick with that. That's who I have winn.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: The whole thing is Arizona Wildcats.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Give me them. Well, that's that's the in vogue pick
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: right now. I think most of the experts out there
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: are going with Arizona right now. They've been good all
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: season long. They had a nice undefeated stretch there for
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: a while. They got there. They're again led by freshmen.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: They got a terrific guard and a terrific big man
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: that are freshmen. They're deep, they can shoot the three,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: they're long too. I mean, I get why people are picking.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they're a really good team.
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: That's why I would have taken with my first pick
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: I had if I had the number of your second. Well,
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: I'm saying in this in this round, now, would Michigan
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: be in my top four? Yes, that's what I'm saying.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: Michigan will still get picked in this round. That's what
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: I was saying, Not that I would have taken them
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: with my first pick.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Okay, well, I'm saying I think I would have gotten
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Michigan no matter where, because I think other people would
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: have stayed away from them. Yeah. Oh all right, kid,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: you got the next selection here. Who are you going
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: to take in our March Madness Preview Green Jacket Draft?
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I will take you Khan? Wow? Wow, you're not going
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: with a one seed for what? Why not? Now? U?
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Khan is the pick? Some Faith and Dan Hurley there. Well. Look,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, no coach in the game right now has
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: had more success recently in the tournament than Yukon. They're
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: coming off all loss in their last game to Louisville.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: They kind of got smoked. Maybe they got it out
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: of their system.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: But they're really balanced team. They always are. I don't
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: know if they've got that next great NBA player on
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: their roster, but five guys average and double figures on
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: the Yukon Huskies. And Dan Hurley, whether you like him
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: or not, you know he can coach. But I am
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: surprised at two seed out of kid at the third pick.
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: Overall, he pulls some singers out every Yeah, I'll tell you,
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: But then I'm not gonna doubt it. You've watched way
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: more Yukon basketball than I have this year. I know
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: that they've won a bunch. I mean there's like you said,
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: there's nobody there's one more recently than they have. So
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: a little bit championship pedigree.
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: You need a little luck to do this right, you know,
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: chip championship pedigree would help. So they'll get to the
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: first round and then after that, I just keep my
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: fingers crossed because it's a crapshoot at this point.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: All right, Ashley, you get back to back picks. You
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: can get two one seeds here. Oh, it doesn't sound
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: like she's going to Wow.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna Oh, I'm gonna take Houston.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Houston, I hope you.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Oh so it's finally happening to you, kid?
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Oh can someone can someone?
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: I don't you guys can just if you want, you guys,
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: just go ahead and take all those number two seeds.
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: Yah, I was gonna get Houston going back, but this
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: is not happening now. So thanks a lot. It's cool though,
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: continue you are welcome. And I'm also I see what
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: you're doing. You wanted to get your two favorite two seeds.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: I'm also going to take Iowa State. Please, you're not
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: going to take.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Any of the wow?
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Wow?
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: How about that? Well? Iowa State? Can they beat Arizona?
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: That is the that's kind of the question. A lot
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: of people seem to like them quite a bit.
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: And again, yeah, you know you've got to Michigan.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: The Michigan question.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw That's why I'm like, wait a minute,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: didn't all the experts that I was watching pick Arizona
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: and a few of them picked Iowa Stable. They're picking
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: him to knock off Michigan. So two number two's for
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Ashley with the fourth and fifth picks of the draft,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: So Bucky's going to get two number ones. He looks like, so, kid,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: you've got the next selection. Are you gonna go three seed?
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: Here?
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: I'll see, I'll.
• 10:06
  Speaker 7: Take even I'll take Duke.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: I'll take Duke. Sure, absolutely, Yeah, yeah, Cam Boozer is
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: so good, so good, He's gonna probably, they keep saying
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: to Bonsa, but I.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Think Boozer is the number one pick is late.
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: His last name holds a little weight. I don't know
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: if Carlos is gonna. I think the last name Boozy
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: does help a little bit. So yeah, I would take it,
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: just a small age. I think he is better player
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: than the Bonsa.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: But I mean it's six ten and they they basically
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: run the offense through that guy and he'll be out
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: at the top of the key. Yeah, he's He's terrific
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and uh so, I mean, there are a lot of
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: great players, and most of them are freshmen in this tournament,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: but Duke is the is the number one overall seed
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: in this tournament. And kid just got him with the
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: sixth pick. All right, Bucky, you have your second round selection.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: You can be the only person with two one seats.
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: Well yeah, and kid Yukon and Duk are in the
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: same brackets, right aren't. Anyway, I'm glad you. Maybe you'll
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: for sure get somebody into the final four. Then with that,
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: I am going to take Florida. I'll go ahead and
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: take two number ones. Why why not?
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: All right? Two number ones going to Bucky's got Florida
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: and Arizona. They are the defending champs. They will run
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: into Houston at some point. I have them winning. I
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: think that they've got a very good front court. But
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: you know what they say about the tournament, it's the
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: backcourt that wins, and that seems to be a weakness
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: for the Gators. It seems to be the one area
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: that people question. You remember, Clayton last year kind of
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: carried them to a few wins. He's not there anymore,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: and so they're they're terrific on the front line. If
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: they have a questionable backcourt. Houston's a team that can
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: expose it. Vanderbilt is a team that did expose it
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: just a week ago. And Vanderbilt's in the same block
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: with Florida, I mean, and Vanderbilt's got two outstanding guards
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: and Duke Miles and Tyler Taynor. So I mean, we'll see,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: but I can't really fault Bucky with the seventh overall
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: pick to end up with two one seeds here in
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: our March Madness Green Jacket preview. All right, I got
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: back to back selections here? Is that what you're telling me?
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: You know what you're getting at there? I don't like
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: the Eggs to even get past by us, but I
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: am going to take what I got those Wait a minute,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: what are you're looking at? Oh? We got three? Two
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: seeds are off the board. Oh boy, so I can
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: go Perdue. I do like Purdue, but I like Michigan
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: State better. So I'm going to have both the Michigan schools.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: It looks like I'm gonna go Michigan State and then
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: I just got to take them. Give me Illinois, so
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I'll take two to three.
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: Oh you know what I see, WSU, Let me go
• 12:56
  Speaker 7: ahead and get knocked.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: Michigan State, thanks for that.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: And Illinois. Illinois, I mean, that's just where I'm from.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: So if I'm gonna be on the fence, I'm gonna side.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I had both of those as my next one.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, if if I'm gonna be on the fence,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna side toward the team that I actually root
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: for a little bit. And Michigan State I think is
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: very dangerous. They've got they got a very athletic team.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know. When I think about Michigan State, I
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: think about like people that will bloody your nose. That's
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: what I think about under Tom Izzo. But they have
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: got a very athletic team. Uh, and so I think
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: they're pretty dangerous in this tournament. I think they're going
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: to beat you Ukon kid, I really do. And I
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: think they're at least going to make it to the
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Elite eight. And I have them going all the way
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: to the final four. So I don't mind at all
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: taking two three seeds Right here.
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: I had Michigan State beating Yukon as well, but then
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: losing to Duke.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: I have them beating Duke.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: Wow, I'm beating Look at that.
• 13:51
  Speaker 7: You know, I got you.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Something's gonna happen for menainst you kid? Yeah, like you
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: that's the bottom line. Yeah, Bucky, You've got your third
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: pick who you going with I'm gonna go against what
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I have in my bracket.
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: I have BYU knocking Purdue off to face Arizona in
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: the Elite eight. But I'm gonna go ahead and take
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: Purdue right here because it's very chalky and I like that.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: You can't resist chalk. No, you're the chalkiest person. You
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: are chalky white.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Now you're rooting against your bracket.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: I don't care.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, he's charging not rooting against his bracket. He's
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: rooting for chalk.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, clearly it seems like that.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Get to either way. They meet up in the sweet sixteen.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: All right, Perdue is the last two seed. All right,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: so kid, are you gonna go off the board and
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: get a four, a five, or a six.
• 14:39
  Speaker 7: I will take a four, I'll take four, I'll take
• 14:41
  Speaker 7: off song.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: No, I think that's a great pick Arkansas. Man. Are
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: they show too much?
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 14:48
  Speaker 7: Or I just you know, watch a little bit of
• 14:50
  Speaker 7: college bout just a little bit of that.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: I know that too. I'm just a little bit. But
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: they're good.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: They are good, and they're playing great right now.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: Don't tell Bucky that. I mean, they are so long
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: and athletic, and then they've got the point guard. Everybody
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: wants a good point guard this time of the year.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: They might have the best in the country right now
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: in a cup. So for a four seed, I mean,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: that's I think that's a really good pick. I think
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: they're very dangerous here in the tournament. But they face
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Wisconsin in that very second round. Same thing. Really good
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: guards with Wisconsin and they're playing or High Point. Yeah
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: all right, Ashley, you got the last pick a round
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: number three.
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: All right, I'm gonna I don't know what to do here,
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: but I'm going to just take a leap and I'm
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: going to take Texas Tech.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Oh, a five seed without their best player. Yep, Oh,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: that is a leap. Yeah, dumb one. Okay, whoa singer?
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: They are playing well, they've not really missed much of
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: a beat without him, but it's just hard for me
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: to believe without him that they're going to get very
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: deep into this thing.
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: But I'm just trying to look at possibilities that I
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: have with who I you know, who people are matching
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: up against, and who people are playing, and where I've
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: already picked.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Well, Alabama just lost a guy to about ten pounds
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: a weed. Yeah, so that would be the second round match. Yeah,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: there you go. Oh and your boy here, you are
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: going after my Michigan team.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah twice again?
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, and you get the first pick
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: of Cinderella's son.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Take Missouri.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Please, that's a good choice. That's probably the number one choice.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: You got to take a double digit to seed here
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: a true Cinderella. Missouri Tigers are going to be playing.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Not only are they at ten versus a seven in
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: the first round, they're playing that game in Saint Louis
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: against the Hurricanes, Miami Hurricanes, and it will I mean,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: I know it's Columbia Missouri, but believe me, having grown
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: up there, Saint Louisan's love themselves some Missouri Tigers. So
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: they're going to have a home court advantage in that game.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: There's no going to be, no doubt about it. They
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: might have it. I mean, they're gonna have it for
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: a couple of rounds. They'll face Perdue in the second round.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: But any advantage that you could get, you know, to
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: have Saint Louis, Missouri rooting for you, I think that's
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: the smartest pick to make there with the Cinderellas. All right, kid,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: you are up next.
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: That's funny because I was actually gonna take Missouri, but
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: that is off the board, so wow, I don't know
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: what to do. I'm panicking. Give me kennessa state, you know,
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: that sounds great and all, but I guess we'll go
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: BCU b oh Man for just I don't have a pick.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: You still mine?
• 17:29
  Speaker 7: Well, Chuck, I'm sorry, I had to do something.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Levin c. They're taking on North Carolina in the first round.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: I'm not here to I don't think I'm picking anybody
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: any Cinderella's to make it past the second round, but I.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: Take to get a cup win or two.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I am pigging them to get past
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: the first round. Uh in North Carolina. I think North
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Carolina of all the losses, I mean, Caleb Wilson was
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: the North Carolina tar Heels this year. So I think
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Virginia Commonwealth's gonna pull off an upset in that round
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: one and then they better lose to Illinois round two.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: All right, Bucky your pick Cinderella.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Give me Santa Clara.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, you guys just took one, two, and three
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: on my board right there, all right, Santa Clara. A
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: lot of people I hear a lot of experts really
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: like the WCC this year. A lot of people are
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: picking Saint Mary's to do some damage, a lot of
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: people picking Santa Clara to do some damage. I think
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: part of it, too, is everybody hates Kentucky.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: Well I shouldn't they?
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, probably except people from Kentucky. Everybody hates Kentucky, all right.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Santa Clara is the pick there, the ten seed in
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the Midwest region, and so I got the last selection.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: So again, I don't think any of these teams are
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: gonna win multiple games. Maybe Texas A and M is
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: a good matchup against Saint Mary's, But I'm going to
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: just take a team that I think is going to
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: pull an upset in the first round. Louisville's got a
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: really good freshman guard, but South Florida hasn't lost in
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: a long time. So I'm gonna take USF the eleven
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: seed in the East region, to at least pull off
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: an upset. Uh. And then of course they have to
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: lose to Michigan State otherwise I've blown my second round pick.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: But I think you're just trying to find a win
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: with the Cinderella pick this year. And I'm gonna say
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: the Bulls are going to take out the Louisville Cardinals.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Those are four, all right, there you go. Those are
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: our teams for March Madness. You got Arizona winning the
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: national championship.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: Ashley, who did you have one in Arizona winning the
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: national championship?
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Did you gotta win in the national championship?
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Kon Oh, thus the pick?
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: There you go, and.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna take. I'm gonna take Michigan, So Chucksteam Michigan,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Michigan State, Illinois. Boy, I really loaded up on the
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: Big ten and USF. Bucky's got Arizona, Florida, Purdue, and
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Santa Clara. Nice work, Chalky Kid, Scott Yukon Duke, Arkansas
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: and Virginia. I think you ended up with a good group,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: even though you were all over the board with your weirdness.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: But I think that's a really good group. And then
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Ashley with Houston, Iowa State, Texas Tech, and Missouri. Very
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: big twelve of you.
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, all right, there you go.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: We're set. Now your set, let's go bring on the madness.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Coming up next on the radio program, we got time
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: to make fun of Mark de Rosa a little more right.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. All Right, the
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: US loses to the Venezuelan team last night WBC Championship.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: Didn't make it to the championship, oh, by the way,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: but do not get it done the last night, and
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: of course the finger pointing start did the next morning
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: and toward the American team. And for a lot of reasons.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: We've discussed it a few times here today, but maybe
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: not all of it. I should start by saying I
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: threw Bucky off about an hour and a half ago.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was thinking that that guy on.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: The Twitter machine was talking about the intentional walk to
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: a brave and calling that cowardly baseball at the time.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: But no, the inning started with a walk the eighth
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: inning that or excuse me, the ninth inning that produced
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: the game winning run to Luis a Rise, and somebody
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: was accusing them of pitching around him or whatever the
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: case may be. So the point Bucky was trying to
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: make is that you can't blame Durosa for a pitcher
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Garrett Whitlock walking Luise a Rise, a good eyed hitter
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: to lead off an inning. Yeah, you can blame Whitlock,
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: but you can't blame Mark de Rosa, but we can
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: blame him for a lot of other things, right, Well,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: yeah he was.
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: Not perfect A darn sure. I mean I don't I
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: questioned some of the starting lineup thing. Now, it's difficult
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: the whole How do you write a lineup when no
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: one deserves to be on the bench. There's nobody, there's
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: not one person on that.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Maybe Ernie clement As, Yeah, playoffs, Yeah, okay, yeah, you
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: know what, you you sit on the bench.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: And he's like, okay, that's fine, as long as I
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: can just be like a hero and win World Series?
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Is that okay? Well no, almost though.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: To hell buddy there quickly.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So, I mean it was I I don't understand
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: the there's he went on before uh the d row
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: went on the shows or went on some show beforehand
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: and was kind of asked about some of his decisions
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: with the lineup and how basically he's playing Bragman instead
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: of Gunner Henderson. Well, that's not right in the hot hand,
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: that's a right, he lefty thing. And he ends up saying, well,
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: the guys, we've seen what he's done at the highest level,
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: the biggest games, talking about all the World Series, and yeah,
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: that's true, he's been really good. He's not as good
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: as Gunner Henderson is right now, right period.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: And not as hot, which was his reason for not playing.
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: Yes, Buxton versus crow Like, I don't understand how you're
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: going there either. I mean, if you're going based on
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: hot Buxton hadn't had a hit either. Now he was
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: only zero for six, but he basically says, oh, he's
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: been hitting. You know, he's been swinging it well, having
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: good abs, which you know how I am. I'm not
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: caught up on the on the outcome as much as
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: I am the actual approach. Because if you have a
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: good approach, everything's going to work out. So if you
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: want to say that he okay, you can go there
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: and you're not missing anything. But he quickly made a
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: change with Buxton, I mean he pinched hit and made
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: a swap there, and then you went with what I
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: think is this, without a doubt, a lesser catcher all
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: the way around offensively, defensively. I think that there's calling
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: pitches wise. I think that there's I think you left
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: your best, your best catcher on the bench in cal
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: Rawley and you didn't even bring him off when you
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: could have brought him up when it looked like you
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: were just looking for one big swing here and there,
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: and a couple different times you had opportunities to do
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: that and he didn't do it. So yeah, if I'm
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: sitting around having a beer or whiskey with Dero, I'm
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: gonna be I'm gonna I'm not gonna do it right
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: now because the wound's still fresh. But next time I
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: see him, it's gonna be like, hey, I would say,
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: put the MVP in the game. In the semifinals. In
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: the finals, he didn't lose a game when he was playing.
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: He lost to Italy. That was Will Smith was catching
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: that game. And so yeah, to me, it was shame
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: yea better.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: Are we to be worried at all? I mean, okay,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: let me just say this. I'm not, but just for
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: conversational purposes, I think Cal gets back to Peoria, gets
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: around the skies, and hits the ground running eight days
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: from now, and you know this is not going to
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: impact him whatsoever. But he's not exactly used to being benched,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: like never. Yeah, and and I know how excited he
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: was to be a part of this. He was one
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: of the first guys that said, yep, I'm going and
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: he gets there and he really was told, all right,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: we're gonna alternate catchers, okay, and then for the championship game,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: we're not gonna go with our starter. We're gonna go
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: with the backup because he's got three more singles. Yeah,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: than what Cal asked. I mean, this was not a
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: great experience for him. I mean, he might tell me differently.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. The result doesn't matter. I got to
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: wear a Team USA across my chest. I had a
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: great time with the guys. But for somebody that doesn't
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: even like to sit one inning, much less the two
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: biggest games of the entire USA's WBC tournament experience, he
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: didn't even get to feel the joy of getting a hit.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: He had an uncharacteristic pass ball in the game at
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: a really bad time too. In the game they ended
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: up not paying for that, but a really bad time there.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: He had the handshake gait. I mean internationally, nationally, people
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: that don't know Kyl, don't follow Cal, and yet are
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: experts about Cal. Rawley just killed him, killed him in
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: social media. He even had to have a press conference
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: where at one time he had to stop and say,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: I'm not taking any questions, like, I mean, that's stuff
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: that's usually saved for senators who got caught with their
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: underage secretary. Yeah, and here's Cal having to say, I'm
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: not taking any questions about a silly handshake misunderstanding it
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: wasn't a great experience for Cal. Does he just brush
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: it right under the rug? Or is this something that
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: maybe delays a good start for him this year?
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I'm not going to try to like
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: put myself into his mindset because I mean, plain and simple,
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: what he did last year, right, and I'm and to
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: sixty home runs. There's a thing between the years that
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: is a toughness that very few have, right because you're
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: you're still going to struggle, You're still going to have
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: times where you're not feeling great, and yet you can
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: still summon a good swing here and there. You can
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: still find a way to run into sixty of them
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: bad boys. So to me, I think mental toughness is
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: obviously something that he brings. We know about his physical toughness,
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: but I think mental toughness. But this is something my
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: wife case, she asks, She goes, you think this is
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: something that could affect him like upstairs, like the fact
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: that he's not playing after she found out he wasn't
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: playing in the finals, and that's after not playing in
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: the semifinals, and I immediately went now. And then as
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: I started thinking about it, I started saying, when was
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: the last time that cal Rawly wasn't playing in any
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: sort of meaningful game? And I have to think that
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: it's the first time was the game against Dominican in
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: his life that he was not playing? And so that's
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: not fun. I can tell you from experience I've played.
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: And then there's a time when I went back to
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: Double A and I was on the bench. I was
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: an All Star there the year before. I go back
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: the next year of the same league and I'm starting
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: on the bench, and there was a part of me
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: that was just inside I was humiliated. There's a part
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: of me that just felt like, what in the hell
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: is going on here? And you know, obviously it didn't
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: end up lingering and sticking around for a long time,
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: but it's a feeling. There's no doubt that he didn't
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: have a great feeling coming out of this World Baseball Classic.
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: I also do think, though, with his mental toughness and
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: the kind of person he is, that he's going to
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: look at it and say, all right, well, that's never
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: going to happen again. And what am I going to
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: do now to make myself even better?
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I I don't know. I think you got to kind
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: of chalk it up to short sample size tournament play.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: I get the alternating catchers thing, and I got overlooked
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: for one big start and that didn't set well with me.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: I hate sitting on the bench. I think it just
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: kind of have to just brush it off, and I'm
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: sure that he will. It's just, man, You're coming off
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: a year in which it felt like everything fell in
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: place for cal Rawleigh, and then you've started the new
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: year nothing fell in place for two straight weeks for
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: cal Raley. I mean, nothing went. I mean think about
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: what cal Raley envisioned that experience was gonna be like,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: getting it, you know, being a household name, coming off
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: a sixty homer season, teaming with Aaron Judge and not
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: being you know, compared against him, maybe hitting behind him
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: in the order, having a moment where I get to
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: round the bases with Team USA across. Maybe I'll be
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: the hero like I was for the Mariners in the playoff.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Drap you got to entertain. I mean, if you'd have
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: been in that situation, you're not on the bus thinking,
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: you know, here's how I think it's gonna go. I
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: think I'm gonna struggle to get a hit, probably gonna
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: lose my starting job before the end of the tournament,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: and I'm probably gonna piss off a teammate. Yeah. Yeah,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: you're not envisioning that I think that'll be success. You're
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: thinking that, Hey, I got things are going Col's way
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: right now? Man, is this to be a memorable experience
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: and all of his memories have to be crappy?
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well yeah it did.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: By far.
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: It's a ton less than what it was going to be,
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: what he thought it was going to be, and yet
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: it's still I'm sure just the mindset, the glass half
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: full mindset that just about any good baseball player is
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: gonna have. He's already spun it into I was a
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: good experience. Glad I got to play with those guys.

• 30:31
  Speaker 4: start out, he's over his last nine in the WBC
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: in his last week, he goes over, Yeah, there's a
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: part of it that this could contribute to. I don't
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: see it happening, but there's a part where you could
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: be a little bit concerned as an outsider, like we
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: are watching we know one of our favorite players.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Well, well, I want this story to in this way
• 30:50

  Speaker 3: Oh, I say what you mean?
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I gotta be honestly about something. I just
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: made four major breaks to my bracket, major changes. Oh
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: you did, Yeah, which I would never advise anyone to do.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you stick with against what you normally do.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: I know, but I hadn't looked at the Sunday. Yeah,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: and I've thought about this, and so I changed a
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: lot of things. Uh so, I guess I'm gonna say
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: it's b yu. I have a six seed going to
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: the Elite eight, but I just changed it. They were
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: only to the sweet sixteen, and right before you asked
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: that question, I moved them to the eight.
• 32:19

• 32:23
  Speaker 4: I have that same one too, Oh you do?

  Speaker 2: Two three seeds going to the final four.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Oh, two three seeds Michigan State and who in Illinois.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm not going to be angry with that. I
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: just changed one of my final four teams too. Oh yeah, yeah.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: I took Florida out and put Houston in that.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: I have that too, smart move.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Even though I have Houston losing, you.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: Have Houston losing to Illinois. Yeah, and then you have
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: Illinois beating Florida.

  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Wow, You're not chalky at all. Yeah. No, and a
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: year where we're supposed to be chalkier.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: I only have one seat, one one seed in the
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: final four.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: You know, some people chalk and use ag.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: That's right, I'm saying over here.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: That's right. Uh all right, So yeah, usually I do
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: a lot more upsets than what I did this year.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to keep that under control. But I changed
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: like four things on the back end of the tournament.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: I hear it that I like a little better now,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: and I'll probably pay for it. All right, Ashley, what's
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: your one last thing?
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: So I don't know if you guys saw this, but
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: because the NFL Draft is going to be in Pittsburgh
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: this year, Pittsburgh Public Schools announced today that students in
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: the school district will learn remotely from April twenty second
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: through the twenty fourth while the city hosts the NFL Draft.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: There it is, it's happening.
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: What's happening.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: The NFL is taking over.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: Draft Miss is now being acknowledged, at least in Pittsburgh,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: at least by the host city as a national holiday.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Kids don't even have to go to school. Yeah, on
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Draft Miss.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: They're learning remotely.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: That's how it starts.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: That's how it's starts.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: And you laughed at me when I said earlier this
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: week that there might be a time where we get
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: the whole month off.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: I didn't laugh. No, I asked if it would be for.
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: The month now if you start over promoting draftness to
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: the point where we're getting months off, Okay, I'm in.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: I'll celebrate the hell out of it. I'll decorate, I'll
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: put them life.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: And start somewhere.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And it started with just a crazy idea from
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: a guy that loved the draft. Suddenly that guy became
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: father Draft Miss. And then that guy's love for the
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: draft has spread to the point where Pittsburgh's school children
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: can celebrate the holiday unencumbered by responsibility.
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: Well, it's moving in the right direction. Now, I'm going
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: to need it to go ahead and take hold a
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: little bit more close to home. Don't really care about
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: Pittsburgh children.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: We got to host it at some point, Okay.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: Well, I'm just saying, even when we don't host it,
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: I think we just need to get it to where
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: we got some time off around it. Baby steps, Baby,
• 34:55
