  Speaker 2: We know exactly what we got to do. All right?
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Let's go out and kick some tape.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: One, two, three.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: We got some big plays coming. What the hell's going
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: on out here?
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Yellow Weasel.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Quit calling the plays, all right? It is time. Who

• 0:44
  Speaker 3: your respect.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Bill Schmidt.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: That son of a gun is thick. And Armin Sarian.
• 0:48

  Speaker 2: The boys are back. The boys are back. The Huddle,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: Wisconsin, coming at you, 920 Milwaukee, 1070 Madison, iHeartRadio app, X, Facebook,
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: and YouTube for the streamers. I like the little side
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: comments with the streamers. They have their own conversation going
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: during the show.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's awesome. We like that. NicoletLaw.com, talk and text
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: line never closes, 877-794-1973. It's Tuesday. There's no Brewers game.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: We can all relax.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: This evening, maybe if you want to, avail yourself of
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: the Guardians and Rays game two.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Kind of a must win for the Rays now. You
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: don't want to go down to 2-0 and have to
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: go home.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: Did you lose the Rasmussen start as well? That was
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: kind of a big deal. That was the Guardians method,
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: and they survived. But, man, it makes it tough on yourself.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: A little easier to lose the first two in a
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: seven-game series, but we'll see what the Dodgers have to
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: say about that.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: We'll see if the Dodgers can recover. It's never ideal.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: What was that number?
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: 83%.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Oh, I like that number. 83% of teams. They have
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: a two lead go on to win. So, and I
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: would like this series drew to go as long as possible. Yeah.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Maybe one or two of those games go on 12, 13,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: 18 innings.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: And the Brewers have never had a two lead ever
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: in a seven game series, which is very interesting. It
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: dawns on me that yes, tomorrow is game three and
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: then game four. We're having our pregame party known as
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: the Thursday Night Huddle at Pottawatomie Sportsbook.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: In the annex. Yes, sir.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, on the screens, I can imagine it
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: will be Brewers, Dodgers, and then, oh, over here also,
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: we'll have Seahawks-Broncos, which is a pretty good Thursday.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Not a bad game and a tough one to take
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: a back seat. I mean, it will very thoroughly, but
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: that's a really, really good game. And again, there's some
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: good games coming up all weekend long. The Badgers in
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: UCLA is going to be right there in between game
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: five and game six on Saturday night. Obviously, game six
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: on Sunday night, there's a little something going on at
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: the exact same time. Pottawatomie Sportsbook is generally always the
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: place to be. But these, for the multi-screen viewing, because, Drew,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: you mentioned this, I think, last Thursday Night Huddle, so
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I want to give you adequate credit because it was
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: one of my favorite things to hear. You already missed
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: out on Prime Day. You can't get a $ 99 38-inch
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: TV right now. So you might as well go to
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: the Pottawatomie Sportsbook so you can watch both games at
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: the same time.
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: It is interesting if you are looking from that perspective
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: that Brewers have moved to a bigger underdog for Game 3.
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: A lot of bettors like the Dodgers in Game 3
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: for understandable reasons. They're coming back home. Obviously, it's pretty
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: much a must-win for them. They're going to be motivated.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: What did I mention to you, Billy, earlier? Plus 143.
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: It's now moved to plus 150 on the money line
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: for the Brewers. So if you believe in this team
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: and you want a good price... You're getting a better
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: one even better than an hour ago.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: All right. I like the sound of that. Brewers plus two.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: The Dodgers, however, plus 220 in the series market. So
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: the Brewers now a heavy favorite there.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Drew, the most common and easiest take to have on
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: this entire series is sure is nice to not play
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: against superhero superhero Shohei Otani.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's definitely like they're talking about sitting him and
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: he is looks lost. He looks he's he's chasing and
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: he's whether it's his knee or his bicep or whatever
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: it is, something's not right.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: When he checks swung yesterday and drop the bat to
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: try to make it look like he didn't go all
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: the way around. I think that's when you know, okay,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: not the same guy. He's a Homer in 24 straight games.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: They just flashed the graphic up tied for the longest
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: drought of his major league career. Yeah. Let's keep things
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: that way. I'm cool.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Here's the thing. It's a perfect time. Timing is everything
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: in life and especially in sports.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: And, uh, Hmm. Shoya Tani is not hot. Who's not?
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Who's hot?
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Who's not brought to us by Donovan Jorgensen, heating and
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: cooling employee owned more than 40 years.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Check them out. Donovan Jorgensen dot com. Shoya Tani. Definitely not.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: The Dodgers not hot.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: Kyle Tucker's double was their only extra base hit in
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Milwaukee this week.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: That's hard to believe.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: And they are their mashers. Well, again, they had three
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: hits yesterday. They only left two guys on base in
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: nine innings. Their entire offense consisted of of Logan Henderson
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: throwing the ball into right field.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: You gift-wrapped him their only runs.
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: I hate to be this guy, too, but then you ask,
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: with that lineup, is that sustainable in L.A.? But this
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: bullpen has been so good.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: Again, though, Will Smith, their catcher, is not looking great either.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: He's struggling. They look wounded. It is not about who
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: you play when you play them. Out of the last
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: three years, this is the best time to play the L.A.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: Dodgers.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Fantastic point. It really is. You have them also in
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: this cannot be it again. It's not an excuse, but
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I do believe it's a firm explanation as to where
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: it goes for him. They've played more baseball than anybody
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: else over the last three years. They're one of, if
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: not the oldest roster in the sport, and they've played
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: more games than anyone else, playing 20-some-odd games in each
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: of the last two postseasons. So you catch them at
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: the perfect time. Brewers bullpen, hot, giving up one earned
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: run in the postseason, 28 and two-thirds innings pitched, one
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: earned run. The only earned run is a solo shot
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: that Jake Cronenworth hit in the National League Division Series
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: off JoJo Romero. 28 and two thirds innings pitched 26
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: strikeouts drew in opponent batting average of 137. That sounds
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: pretty hot to me. That's pretty hot. What about also
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: hot as well is Josh Allen. Last I checked, the
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: reigning defending MVP of the game was the other quarterback yesterday,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: who was also pretty dang good. Matthew Stafford, 40 of 54,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: 383 with three tugs yesterday. But Josh Allen, one touchdown,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: one interception, one rushing touchdown. My man carried it 10
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: times for a buck 21 and a score. James Cook
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: had 111 yards on the ground and two scores as well.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: They ran it for 6.3 a pop last night. And
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen currently leads all of the NFL in rushing touchdowns.
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: Amazing.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: With seven ahead of Derrick Henry and Jameer Kim. He's
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: just an alien. I don't know.
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: Someone said that last night, so I'm copying what was
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: a coach or something, but he really is. I mean,
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: he looked, Josh Allen is incredible. Stafford played great too,
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: but he looks like one of those guys. It looks
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: like one of those kids that was like two years
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: old and everybody else on the, playground and he had
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: to play all time quarterback, but like you couldn't, he
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: would just constantly run around and just mess with people
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: and fake throw it. Like just, just incredible ability to
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: run when they need to as good as anybody at that.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Position and obviously throw it.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: And they snatched victory from the jaws of defeat after
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: doing the opposite.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Like a few minutes.
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: Earlier, that was quite a game last night on Monday.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Who's not hot after posting a Tony Snell stat line
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: in the Packers bears game. Montez Sweat, not hot, suspended
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: two games for violating the NFL's PED policy. Oh, boy.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, boy.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Come on now. Spend it without thickens. Montez Sweat will
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: miss the Bears matchup coming up this week against the
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Atlanta Falcons. And then again, their matchup against the New
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: England Patriots in week number seven. Interesting. It's very much
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: not hot. Listen, write it up. It still couldn't affect
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: the passer anymore. Packers offensive line might be fixed. Also
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: drew hot. How about Peyton Pritchard to your $ 44 million
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: deal with the Boston Celtics? My goodness. That's a lot
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: of coin. There's a lot of coin. And now listen,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Reggie Miller said he's the closest thing to Caitlin Clark
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: in the NBA. So maybe that's worth, maybe that's worth
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: that money. That was still one of my favorite things
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: that somebody has ever gotten dragged for is Reggie Miller
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: getting laughed out of the building for his, what is that?
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Who does her game remind you of? I'd say Peyton Pritchard,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Peyton Pritchard. Yeah. Not Steph Curry, not Damien Lillard. No, yeah,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the sixth man of the year. That should be decent enough, right?
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: Is that as bad as what Lisa Leslie said, layups?
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: Is that what you're going to work on?
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: That would be it. Yeah, that would be just about
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: the same way. And finally, in the not category, my
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: boy Harrison Mevis, the thicker kicker. Thicker kicker. Is caught
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: here today. Yeah, John asked about that Curacao on the YouTube.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: He's gone. He's gone. Blake Grupe signed off the Jets
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: practice squad. Well, that's a good idea.
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm sure the Jets have multiple Hall of
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: Fame kickers sitting around their practice squad.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: Where are Anders Carlson and Lucas Haverset? Because we're reaching
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: the point of the season where their phones are going
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: to start ringing.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: That's a great question.
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: You're talking about the all-time field percentage leader in Packers history,
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: Anders Carlson, I believe, still has that number.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Yes. Okay. And Haversick has the longest kick.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: How about that? Well, our standards have changed. Yeah. Well, Billy,
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm looking here. I do not have
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: anything on Lucas Haversick. Our Brewers obsession has, you know,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: it's helped a lot of things. It's helped camouflage some
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: things like Trace Mack's bad Sunday. You know, the fact
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: that the Packers won that game. Trace Mack missed. two
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: field goals and an extra point.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: Now, Cairo Santos also missed a kick, so maybe it
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: was something in the air, the wind, current swirling that
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: we didn't notice.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Something was weird. Missed the trip, too.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: But we went from not worrying about Trace Mack to
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden, all right, now we're back to
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: worrying about Trace Mack.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, back to him being in the not category. And
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: I don't love that being the case. Matt LaFleur did say, hey, man,
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: he's doing the right stuff. He's practicing there at least
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: once a week. Well, maybe three times a week. Maybe
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: we kick in there a few more times. I don't know, Drew.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: Maybe the wind was doing something more on... than we
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: could fully understand or grasp up in the press box
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: because it was interesting. Ryan Longwell and Mason Crosby have
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: talked about that in the past, about how sometimes when
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: it doesn't look like it's windy, it's still windy and
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: the ball can be pushed. Field goals are one thing,
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: but you've got to have your extra points. I'm sorry.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: We've got to have those.
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: And the one field goal took a weird double hook.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: It had some wild screwball, curveball, slider English.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: A little R.A. Dickey style to it. It came back,
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: then went back. I was like, how did that happen?
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: So who knows? That sounds like a rap song.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Came back and went back. Let's hit the hook on that.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: Maybe I'll chat GPT some more lyrics like I did
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: for Downtown Girl.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Remember that one? That's a throwback to the morning show.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: That was some of your best work. Yeah.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: The thing is, you're glad you didn't need his best performance.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: You didn't need any performance from him in the way
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: you dominated the Bears. You're thankful it was that game.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: But obviously, that's not something you want to start becoming
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: a problem again for the Green Bay Packers.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: You don't want to worry about it. And we didn't talk.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Maybe it was windy because some of the punts were booming.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: I was going to say, what was that? A 70-yard
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: punt off the foot of Whalen? 70, 75. Oh, Danny
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: had a good one there. Whalen, like, yeah, insane. And
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: it was a weird catch by Raymond. I figured it
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: was just the shadows creeping in off the Murphy suites
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: is what it ended up being. But either way, it
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: was an interesting day for kicking there. And yeah, I
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: don't love that that's back onto the conversation table. But
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: conversing in Green Bay coordinators today, I would assume we're
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: going to get something from Micah Parsons coming up because
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: he's going to be ramping back up into practice coming
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: up this week.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised to be standing in front of
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: a slew of microphones and cameras tomorrow.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they might want to hear from him. That's car
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: wash day.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: And if he's he might actually be. available. And with
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: this group and with this team coming in, I think
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: he's definitely going to be a piece of it. The
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: final one here, Drew, for who's hot, who's not. I
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: don't know where this one falls under, so I want
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: you to be the judge jury on it. The Hobart
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: Lawrence Police Department just posted that they will not release
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs' evidence at this time because according to a
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: statement given to Peter Bukowski of The Leap, who got
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: the letter back from the Hobart Police Department, The parties
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: involved planned to legally block its release. So through different
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: restraining orders in ways to be able to block the
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: release of the video, they are not going to put
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: it out right now. We're coming up on week six.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: That's when we all kind of believed would be the
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: day or the time where Josh Jacobs would then get
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: taken off of the commissioner's exempt list and then suspended
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: for a six game time frame. I still don't believe
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: he's playing until they say that video though. But how
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: can they?
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: And if the video, if it seems to me like
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: it's never coming out, so no one's ever going to
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: see it and he's already sitting, it could be a lawsuit.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, there will be lawyers. There would be a
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: lot of lawyers and park Avenue's got good lawyers for sure.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: But it's, it's getting to the point where the industry
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: standard seems to be six games for some.
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: It seems like it was okay. Disorderly conduct and damage
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: to property. Anything more than six seems like it might
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: be excessive.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And again, the video, if the video was worse
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: than it would have been a more of a charge,
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: it would have been.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: I tend to believe the exact same thing. I just
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: I would be interested, fascinated to see if we don't
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: hear anything by the NFL this time next week.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: This time Tuesday, because you would assume that they'd be
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: letting him be on the practice field next week, Tuesday.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: And then how long does he need to ramp up?
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: I think you give him the ball and let him run.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: I'm giving him the ball. Let him run. Marshawn Lloyd. Congratulations.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: You did a great job. Thank you.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: Thank you very much. Senior pitcher with a college on
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: a college baseball team. Coach is going to keep running
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: them out there. And, you know, if he blows it out,
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: he blows it out.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: But it's like put him out there because he's probably
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: his last year in Green Bay. Yeah. We're going to
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: juice that orange as long as possible. Squeeze it and
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: see how much you can get out of it. That
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: will be highly, highly interesting.
• 14:28

• 15:45
  Speaker 4: what are you high? Because I just.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: It's one that, personally, I don't understand the frustration to.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of things we can be upset about
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: in this world. How Jason Kelsey is talking about the
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles is one I don't understand. New York Post
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: fired this one up. And the Philadelphia Inquirer, Drew, did
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: an interview with longtime ESPN producer Jeff Dufain. Dufain. That...
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: They're getting a lot of hate and a lot of
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: heat over this weekend. Cause Jason Kelsey was on the
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Eagles call and said, we, he was saying we way
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: too much. And Jeff, the producer did say, we've been
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: trying to get the, we out of him. He admitted
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: adding that professional athlete transitioning the booth. I have a
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: common mistake. This flared up a couple of weeks ago
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: while him and McAfee were on the field during Monday
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: night countdown, they were literally saying, in the, almost in
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: the huddle of the Eagles warmup. And he said, you know,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: this is where we would look here and you drop the,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know that I can get mad about much
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: drew that people can get that angry about. Yeah. The
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: guy is a damn near first ballot hall of famer
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: played his entire career. There won a title there. If
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: we're going to be upset about him saying we maybe
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: listen to the 99% of the other stuff that comes
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: out of his mouth, which is pretty good. They're in
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: the booth. Yeah, I don't. I get more mad when
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: civilians say we and stuff like that. Like me, I've
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: done it many times. Okay, so that's perfect because that's
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: the first story here. He goes, we belongs in the stands,
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: not the booth. Well, I disagree kind of in that way.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: I can see why he's worried about turning off. the
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: other fan bases are Cowboys fan boy. Cause we know like,
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: we don't, we don't know that he spent his career
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: with Philadelphia.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: So it's like, but my thing that ESPN is like,
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: why can then Michael Wilbon cheer for the Cubs? Totally
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: spot on. Like I told you guys a million times,
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: I'm old enough to when you were neutered and castrated
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: as a fan, the day you started working in the business,
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: I once walked into the newsroom at the Old Milwaukee
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Journal with a Brewers t-shirt that they gave away and
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: I got it in the bleachers on a giveaway. And
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: they made me go home and change because you couldn't
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: wear that. Like you could wear it if you worked
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: on the news side because you didn't cover the Brewers
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: part of it.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: But I was shamed and I couldn't do it. That
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: standard was there.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: Bill Simmons kind of broke that wall down by openly
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: rooting and he became the sports guy.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: And it seeped into.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: and now we have fan blogs and stuff like that,
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: and it's evolved to where there are still.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Like, Stephen A. Smith gets to cheer for the Knicks.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: All the time! Is it because those guys aren't game
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: analysts and he was a game analyst? It shouldn't matter.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: It shouldn't matter, but I think they're afraid of fans
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: getting pissed. Like, Perlman and I talk about that.
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: That wall crumbled, and we're standing on the side of
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: the road like that Indian in the Don't Litter commercial
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: with a single tear, like Iron Eyes Cody with a
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: single tear rolling down our cheek because it's like, oh, see?
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: But it is what it is, and Jason Kelsey should
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: be exempted from that, at least for a while.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: He'll eventually do it. I'm with you on that, yes.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: This is the same page. It's the other side of
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: the coin.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: Brewers fans telling me that Joe Davis isn't emotional enough.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: What's he supposed to do, rip his shirt off for
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: a third-inning homer?
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: He's been fine. He's been fine. We just aren't satisfied
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: when it's not our guy. You aren't satisfied because you
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: know he worked.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: And you guys, I'm old enough to remember when people
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: said the same thing about Wayne Larrabee when he came out.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: He still worked the Bears the first couple years. He's
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: still a Bears guy. No, he's a professional broadcaster. And
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: actually grew up a Packers fan. No, I saw Boog
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: Shambi's call of that. Now, Boog Shambi is, like, playing
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: it straight, too, and his Cubs are done.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: And, yes, he's on the Cubs side of the Brewers-Cubs rivalry,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: but he's playing it straight.
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: He didn't get that excited about a third-inning homer, either. Like,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: it's game-tying, but it's... Not the ninth inning.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: It's the time of the game.
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: And Book's call of the cheerio walk-off, you would have
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: known he's the Cubs voice.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: It was a great call. It was a great call.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: And you just got to get out of your own
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: head Cause you're, you're, you're, everything's filtered. Like Joe Davis
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: isn't getting excited. He hates the Brewers. He likes the Dodgers.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Last year it was BA. BA got excited when we
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: hit you. Did he not get excited about Otani's call?
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: And last year. They were so mad about the Hernandez homer.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Mike Breen with the Knicks.
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: Earlier in this, the Dodgers fans last year were saying that,
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: you know, BA was for the Brewers. And it's what
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: you want to hear. You're filtering it through. And if
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: you just can divorce yourself or, or, Turn the sound
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: down and sync it up and listen to Lev.
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: Because I think they know fans are getting mad about
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: them all the time.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: And I've talked to these guys.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: I've talked to Matty about it because Matty's been doing
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: national games for years. You just can't win. They walk
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: that line. And there's... It's always going to happen. Joe
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: Buck for years. What was his Twitter?
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: Joe Buck is the one that I always hear of.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Joe Buck's Twitter thing was... I hate your team. No,
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: he's like, I don't hate any teams except yours. Except yours. Exactly, yeah.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: It's funny because there are a lot of fans... Joe
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Buck did the World Series for years and people thought
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: he was a Cardinals guy and he couldn't possibly... Play
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: it straight for the Cubs. And one of the first
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: World Series he probably called was when the Red Sox
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: sweep the Cardinals, right? In 04, I would assume that
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: was probably one of the first ones he ended up calling.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: It does make me feel good, though, because the other
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: thing I come up with when I always think about
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: this and I hear fans talking about it, the thing
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: I think to myself all the time is, why do
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: you care, too? Even if they work, it's secretly rooting.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Who cares?
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: It doesn't change the enjoyment of it. Like, does it
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: affect you that much? And then I'm thinking maybe it does.
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: It makes you feel good because maybe fans care about
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: broadcasting calls that much, that it has their experience that much,
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: where they really care that they have to be liked
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: by that broadcaster. Because to me, it's like... I don't,
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: if my team last night, it wouldn't have affected me
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: if Joe Davis was excited or not. I just don't,
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: I would care about my team winning, but Hey, you
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: know what? Maybe, maybe broadcasters are more important than I realized.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: It also just cracked. Davis did a pretty good call
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: on the yellow shit. The yellow shit was really, really good.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: He went to Beloit college. He went to Brewers games
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: during school. Like he might have a little piece of him.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: That's you know, 100%. It's not his fault that he
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: was on the bad side of the Pio-Buck rivalry. He
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: probably never won that thing. But there's a lot to it.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: I can't fathom how you get mad. All of these
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: guys calling the game, I almost can hear and get
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: why you'd get disappointed. This guy played... a dozen years
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: and won a championship with this team.
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: I will say, if he was an analyst in the booth,
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: you can't refer to a team as we. And Troy
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: Aikman's never referred to the Cowboys as we. He's the
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: best at it. He's criticized them a fair amount. But
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: if you're in the booth, but if you're doing the
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: inside the NFL thing, the idea that People who are
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Commanders fans or Giants fans or anybody who hates the Eagles.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: A lot of people hate the Eagles, I guess. Anybody
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: who's lost a Super Bowl to them. I get it.
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: But you know it's baked in, right? Plus, he'll lose
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: that the longer he does it, the more he'll lose that.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: And I'll be honest. I think it's potentially setting up.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Jason Kelsey is going to be the Monday Night Football
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: guy coming up next year. I mean, Aikman's contract is up.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: They already announced that they've signed an extension for Joe Buck.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: They haven't for Troy Aikman. Joe Buck was at this
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: certain super high-fashioned wedding this past year, and maybe that
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: guy's going to retire, too. There's some belief in the
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: sports media Marchand world that it will be Joe Buck
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: and the Kelsey brothers coming up next year in the
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Monday Night Football Bowl.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: I could absolutely see that, obviously because Travis will draw
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: some eyeballs from the Swifties, but I could also... Somehow
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: they'll shoehorn McAfee into that booth, too.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Drew, he's calling games. Yeah, 100%. They're trying to find
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: a way to have him do that sideline cast on
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. I know. I know. The NFL doesn't
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: let anybody on the sidelines. I can't imagine how that's
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: going to go over in Park Avenue. Good luck. That's
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: going to be a fast one. ESPN and the NFL
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: are kind of the same entity. Oh, that's right. Oh, wait.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Who's running that place? It's basically merged. Like a Spider-Man meme. Yeah.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Who's who? Sorry. No, go ahead. My bad. My bad.
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: I wanted to get a couple of comments in on YouTube. CJ,
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: I more just don't like Joe Davis's voice. Well, that's tough.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: I can't help you there. It's a pretty standard. It's
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: going to be kind of locked in.
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Good broadcasting voice, though. The next Vikings Packers game.
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: We need Armin and Paul Allen on the broadcast to
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: go that direction.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: This is Mike Witt.
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: Listen, yeah, I would love to take that job. I
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: don't think they're giving it to me, but I'll take it.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: Now, what about that, Billy? Would that be too much?
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: I'd pay big money to hear a crossover broadcast where
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: PA did the game with... Larry McCarron. That would be great.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: And Bursich did the game with Wayne Laird. I'd pay
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: big money for those calls just because of how much
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: both color guys do openly root for the team, but
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: also in very different ways. Larry, very eloquently with a
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: couple of good I mean, the moans, I think, would
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: go swimmingly with P.A. But I do think Wayne would
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: get a would get into it with Bursich on some
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: of these calls. It'll be phenomenal back and forth. That
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: would be.
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: And maybe think of this is the broadcasting nerd in me.
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: Drew didn't years ago. Chick Hernan and Johnny most call
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: a game together is like a gimmick for an all
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: star game.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: The Celtics and the Lakers guy. Not that I recall.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong.
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: Maybe I'm imagining, but I'm going to try and look
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: that up now. Because that got me fired up thinking
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: about that moment. That would be great, a crossover. Can
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: you imagine that?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: That would be epic. This also might be a front-runner
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: or insider for What Are You High? Jason Mackey covers
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh Pirates for SN Pittsburgh and 93.7 The Fan.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: He said, one of my favorite Pirates in Pittsburgh traditions,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: the annual gathering at Forbes Field Wall is in Oakland
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: to listen and watch that or to listen to the
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: game seven of the 1960 world series. There's like 500
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: people sitting here listening to the audio replay. Armin, that
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: would be a, that would be appointment listening for you.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: That would, there's no way that there's anybody under the
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: age of 60. I think from this video that is
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: being shot, Armin would be breaking the average age of
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: that listening event. I have to agree with you. I
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: can't deny that. Can't deny it. Yeah.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: The 1988 All-Star Game in Chicago for ABC Radio.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: They did the game together. Okay. So there's your precedent.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: I knew it. I knew there was some highlight out there.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: They're starting to do that. They did that. Yes. They're
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: starting to do that a little bit, you know, in baseball, too.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: The Peacock ones. On the national games, the Peacock games.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: I have an analyst from both teams. It's cool. Dilley
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: did one. Rock did one with that opening day in
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: New York. Did the opening day one with, what was it,
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Girardi and Joe Buck? Girardi and Joe Buck, yeah. It
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: was cool. The radio one would be sublime. As much
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: back and forth as you have to have on the
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: radio side to get those guys together. that would be
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: a good time. It'd be awesome.
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: I feel like it'd be a lot of passive-aggressive stuff, too,
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: talking about their team and our team.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Correct.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: And that's what we'd be there for, Armin. Yes, that's
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: what I'm talking about.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: Again, the Joe Davis hate, I get it, but you're
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: in your own head. He's calling it straight. They're just
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: doing the game.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: I got a much bigger problem. He's not really rooting
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: for the Dodgers. I mean, he's not really. You're just
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: hearing it. I love his calls. I cut all those.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: I love his calls. I got a much bigger problem
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: with John Smoltz than I do Joe Davis. Yes, exactly.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: I'm with you there. I'm not a Smoltz guy.
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: I would definitely have more of a problem with John
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: Smoltz than I do Joe Davis. Well, last year, there
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: were also people getting after Ron Darling. Who's with B.A.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Right now. I guess we're always going to complain, but.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: Ron Darling's a tough listen. B.A. will tell you, you know,
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: Ron Darling, he's good and he's not slanty. He wasn't
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: against the Brewers last year. He didn't have a dog
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: in the fight when they were playing. I didn't think slanty.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: People hated him. Solid. People hated McCarver. I mean, that's
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: just the people hated John Morgan. Only Dion or other people.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: You're a real man, Dion.
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: No, I just think that that's how we get when
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: it's familiarity. After a while, you hear the voice too much.
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: And that's part of the thing with baseball is you
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: spend there are more games and you spend them with
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: your local guys. And then in football, it's all national people.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: And you get Joe Buck. It's actually, as it turns out,
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: for the Packers all those years when the fans were
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: bitching and moaning about Buck and Aikman, it's actually a
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: privilege to play those games in that time.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: So that means you're a good team. Yeah. Mark Murphy
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: one time said it. If you're not in that time slot,
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: what are you? What are you doing? Playing at noon?
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: A bleepy team. Yeah.
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: Playing at noon on Sunday with announcers you don't even know.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: Or are you getting Jonathan Villama every week?
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: Tell me in the text line. I don't know if
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: you guys read this. That would be a rough existence. Listen,
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: I thought Chris Myers was the bottom barrel. You get
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: Chris Myers and Jonathan Villama on that crew again for
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: another Jets game. Bring back out. Bring back Pell Moss.
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: Tommy and Stalas. He's Kurt Schilling. Talk about smolts. Old man,
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: old man, man yelling at a cloud.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Excuse me. He's Kurt Schilling with a better PR team.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: He fired it up a couple of different times yesterday
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: where I think on three separate occasions or maybe it
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: was game one. He just said, you know, the starter
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: that goes longer. I think he's going to have a
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: chance to win the game. I do understand. We have,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: we got a shtick. I do understand. We got one
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: thing to go with, but it is 2026. Right.
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: It's not like he's saying anything wrong. Like his analysis
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: is not wrong. It's just for me, it's like, I
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: tweeted this, uh, shameless plug shout out to my twitter
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: account at armin sorry and i said if there if
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: he was in a party no one would want to
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: congregate and be in the same room as him you
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: just avoid him i mean it's just he just like
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: i don't want to hear that guy talk anymore like
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: you know.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: What i mean and i don't want to be mean.
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: I like like to him because he's got a job
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: i'll never have but i don't think he's like whatever
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: he's saying isn't wrong but it's like yeah i guess
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: someone connects yeah okay good for you i'm just gonna
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: stand over here while you talk about that you know
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: that's just kind of the way i feel.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Hey derrick and whitewater i think this crew has been
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: fair Let's go, Derek. Let's go, Derek. And thanks for
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: checking in. That's a really good barometer. And thanks for
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: being with us here in the afternoon. That's true. Derek
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: and Whitewater didn't know if he was going to be here.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: able to. Didn't know. There have been a lot of
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: folks that we thought were going to be potentially on
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: the fence of being able to join us in the afternoon.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Early 5 o'clock clubbers being able to be happy hour huddlers.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: Very excited to be able to get that. I love
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: getting as many of these guys in here as possible because.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: We need to be able to know that, listen, the
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: water's still fine up here. Absolutely. Unnamed in 262. Hey,
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: I used to be a Marquette manager. Can I say
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: we when I watch? No, you say we are. Did
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: you like that?
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: M-U. Actually, that's a tough job, depending on what coach
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: you work for. I knew a manager that was a
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: Tom Crean manager, a classmate of mine in our dorm.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: Not an easy job. So that one was tougher than Buzz? Oh,
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine Buzz is any easier. Don't get me wrong.
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: Buzz probably was very demanding as well. Can you imagine
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: having to send out all those letters that he was writing? Wild. Oh,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: you probably had to park their cars, do all kinds.
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: I don't even think letters is the worst of what
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: they probably had to do.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: I'm sure the job of a manager, that type of,
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: with those coaches. Diamond Dave, I don't have a problem
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: with Joe Davis. I can't hear him from the stands. Well, Dave,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know. You're in those stands all night long.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know how you can hear much because it was,
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: it did seem louder yesterday than most of yesterday. the play.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: It does feel like it'll be levels to it. Each
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: round might be a little bit more. Maybe the World
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Series will be a little different. The high fashion crowd,
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: high price crowd, but it did seem like that Yellich
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: crowd pop, that ball bounced off the scoreboard yesterday, Drew.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: That's about as loud as I've heard that play.
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: I also think it is funny when you hear of
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: an analyst on a broadcast for a team that just
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: lost in that, you know, like I even think about
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: when we watch the replays of the you know, the
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: 82 ALCS, the Brewers had just beaten the Orioles and
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: Earl Weaver's on that call, you know, on the ALCS call.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: And like, we just beat them.
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: How's he, you know, you think people might feel a
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: certain way, like he's going to be bitter or he's
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: going to maybe go the other way. Cause he wants
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: to make himself look good that we just lost a
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: great team.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's, it's interesting, but in.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: The end it's, well, the whole idea that was kind
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: of that predated, well, first of all, social media and everything,
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: but it predated like the, tv critics like there weren't
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: like sports media critics they.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: Didn't care as much and there wasn't the richard.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: Deitches in the world they really weren't back then yeah
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: that kind of came about i'm gonna say like seven
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: eight ten years after that like that was when that
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: was when that first kind of yeah i guess mid
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: to late 80s so it was a couple years after
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: that then you started to see people talking about production
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: and you know announcers and stuff it wasn't it's now
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: an industry Awful announcing.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: I was going to say there's big time blogs about it.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Rudy Martzke at USA Today for years writing about the
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: TV industry and announcers.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: I think Rudy was the guy that Joe Buck was
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: talking about in his book. I love that part where
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: he said, I'm just racing to be able to go
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: and read this review. And then I couldn't wait to
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: throw the thing in the garbage. They started shaming me
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: right out of the gate. Mike went on YouTube, Gus Johnson,
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: to do the World Series. Zach Centurio, unbelievable. That would
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: be a live call.
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: That was kind of a Stephen A through Gus.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: That wasn't good. Yeah, it was more of a Stephen A.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: You'd have to say, Max Muncy from Burbank, California. That's good. Right,
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: it was Kyle Lowry from East Philly. That was the
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: one that blew everyone's top off. That's right. Oh, my goodness.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: He did Bucks games. Can you remember? I mean, I
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: imagine that. That was wild.
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: Shout out to our friends at Happy Place, Rob and Chris.
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: Use the code HUDDLE or the HUDDLE. I'd say HUDDLE's easier.
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: HUDDLE's probably the easiest one. Why type three extra letters?
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: HUDDLE for 25% off with free shipping. You are in
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Drew Billion-Armond, it is

• 33:48

  Speaker 2: Allen there's a couple of guys that would be worthy
• 34:00

• 35:14
  Speaker 2: McAlvey putting out our superhero of the day. Now on
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: game two of the NLCS, there are five-plus players with
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: multi-hits in a postseason game. in Brewers history. It's happened
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: once before. Game one of the 1982 World Series where
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: Paul Molitor had a five hit game. Yeah, that was
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: pretty amazing. Again, you roll up. What do they win?
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: 10-0 that game? I believe so. Yeah.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: You roll up, win 10-0 in game one of the
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: World Series. dominated your, your hall of famers drop nine
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: combined hits with y'all having a four hit game in
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: there as well.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Hard to think that you're not rolling through Bush stadium
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: and celebrating up Ted Simmons in the mall day game.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: They're more with two hits as well as Jimmy Gantner
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: with a pair yesterday, William Contreras had three and then
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: two hits a piece from Terang, Yelich, Pratt, and David Hamilton,
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: who was also a pretty close match. Runner up there
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: in the superhero. Caldwell. Caldwell had a complete game shutout,
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: I believe. So, speaking of some of those guys from
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: the 82 Brewers. Yes. I'm wondering, like, you know, you
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: got to believe that if the Brewers return to the
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: fall classic.
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: They'll bring them all back. They'll be bringing those guys back.
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: In fact, I was talking to Tyler Kepner from The Athletic.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. And he said the first World Series he watched
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: as a child was the 82 World Series. And we
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: were talking about it. And he was reeling off the
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: Brewers starting lineup. And he was telling me, like, all
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: about it. I'm like. Dude, there's this documentary called Just
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: a Bit Outside. You might want to watch it. You
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: might want to check that out.
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: And he was asking me, I said, I can't imagine
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: them not bringing a bunch of those guys back.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, Gorman Thomas and Gantner live here.
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: Robin is back all the time, and he's the franchise icon.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Easy choice. But a bunch of them. Simmons is a
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: Hall of Famer. Any or all of those guys should be.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: you know, brought back. Augie's going to be back. Yeah.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: He's always there. He's in there. I would be, I'm
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: kind of surprised Gantner hadn't. Now, Drew, then those guys
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: able to throw out first pitches. Oh, yeah.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Like, I mean, Jim Gantner throwing out, Robin Yacht's going
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: to throw out game one. Yeah. Robin, you know, it's
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: going to throw out the first pitch at game one
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: of the World Series guys. You know, that's true. I mean,
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: you could line up a number of them. Listen, there
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: are some people there for game one. I thought Ben
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: sheets looked like he could have given you a couple
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: of Cooper.
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: I mean, bringing all those guys back. I mean, the
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: Brewers have done a great job and they've celebrated that
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: team forever. It'd be nice to have another team to
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: celebrate like that.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: It would be very nice. And all due respect to
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: this group of of bandits. We're not throwing a parade
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: if we lose the thing.
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: They've brought Nigel Morgan back several times, CeCe Sabathia, Ryan Braun.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Ryan Braun is on retainer and will be. He's there
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: Had the Brewers come back from San Diego, I'm pretty
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: sure Braun would have been in the mix for that.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good one. But it's got to be
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: game one of the World Series. I'll say it right now.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: It's got to be... robin you out throwing the first pitch.
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: To get christian knowledge yeah i think yeah robin that's
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: the ball that's i think that's gotta be a battery
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: moment that is the moment you're right that's game one
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: that's the goosebump moment.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: A hundred percent and then all of a sudden right
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: before first pitch big old shot of yuki right there
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: on the jumbo yeah or while they're throwing out the
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: first pitch that's at.
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: Some point at some point cut to a shot of
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: uh Commissioner Amanda Seelig at his seat.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: We'll give a wave. Yes. I was going to say, cause,
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: cause I, but can't throw out, can't throw it out,
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: but he's obviously going to get celebrated and rightfully. So
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: should that should be the loudest ovation of the day.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: is when Bud Seeley gets panned over to. I do
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: like the fact that we're already booking the game night entertainment.
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. I love it. I don't want
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: to be in New York, but we still, you know.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: We've got some work to do. Job's not done. Job's
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: not finished. We've got a long way to go. We
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: have to go to L.A., guys. We've got them thinking
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: about benching Otani. That's true. This is how on the
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: ropes they are. When you have two old series can
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: change quick. We've seen it. But when you have a
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: team like that, like, hey, we benched Otani, but Max
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: Muncy had a couple of homers. Right there. That's the
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: way they roll. One hit and seven at bats for
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: Freddie Freeman. You're doing what you need right now.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: Keep them down so you get out of town. Now,
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: the Dodgers have come back from deficits before. In fact,
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: they were down. They trailed the Blue Jays 3-2 last
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: year and won, and they were down in Game 7
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: and came back. You have to think about all these things.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, and they were down to the Padres a
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: couple years ago. Down to the Padres a couple years ago. Bucs, Nets, Bucs, Suns.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: I'm not trying to manifest bad things. I'm just trying
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: to stay. No, you're not. Your logic is not flawed.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: Do we have to protect our feelings? I don't know.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: You know what? Let's embrace it. We're going to L.A.
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: up 2-0.
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: Come on.
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Embrace the joy right now. If you can get Game 3,
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, that would be... If you get game three,
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: that's the thing. I mean, this is the biggest. So
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: tomorrow is an elimination game for the Dodgers. It kind
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: of feels as it was for the Padres, you know,
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: when they were when they were down to when they
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: were down to. And again, and you had a chance
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: to win that game, too. Like the Brewers are going
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: to have a chance. I don't see them just getting
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: blown out. And that's why last night did, especially once
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Yamamoto got chased. You get him out in the fourth inning.
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: You got to do that. You can't lose that game.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: I'm with you on that. And it did feel like
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: one where you had to capitalize. And luckily, the game
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: comes down to a bullpen game. You feel pretty confident
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: winning the baseball game. Any game that becomes a bullpen
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: game from here on out, the Brewers are going to
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: have a massive leg up on everybody. That's the thing.
• 40:32
  Speaker 5: You know, it doesn't guarantee the result, but your chances
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: are dramatically increased.
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: You're absolutely right, Billy. You have the advantage. You just
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: hope it has to come through. Can't say that it
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: fully resonated with me that the Brewers were six of
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: 15 with runners in scoring position yesterday. Hitting over 300
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: with runners in scoring position. Yeah, you're going to win
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: a lot of those games. Well, the eighth helped. I mean,
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: you get a couple of them in the eighth there
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: and it's like, all right, now we're rolling. Yeah. It's
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: just all good. It's contagious.
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: It's funny because you just get the withdrawals and it's
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: going to build. Like tomorrow, we're basically doing a pregame
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: show because we're going to be building towards game three.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I am scratching a little bit. Bobby Diesel on
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: anything else.
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: Bobby Diesel on the mound, taking them out against the
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: always hated but never feared Dodgers.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: Dan into the 715. Be careful, gentlemen. Dan, welcome. Welcome
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: to the afternoon huddle. Welcome in. But you will be
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: careful at some point. Otherwise, they go out here, mess around,
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: win game three. We're already booking the vacation. I think
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: where they're taking 30 lead. You have to feel that way. Yes,
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: that's fair. Absolutely. Yeah, I would have to say. I mean,
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: it did happen once. We know about the Sox, but
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: we're not doing all that stuff. Man, this is fun.
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: These afternoons are great. It's going to be fun. So
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: awesome having you guys bagging this slot. Didn't mind the morning,
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: but I miss the first hour every day. This is great.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: If you missed any of it, check the rest of
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: it out on YouTube. It is nice not being a zombie.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: For sure. For sure. And dinner is going to be
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: very good coming up here very soon. You got that right.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: Giddy up.
• 41:52
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: Tomorrow on the program will be Hot Take Hump Day,
• 41:55
  Speaker 4: as always. We'll rope some people, and we'll talk to
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: Hunter Baumgart. We'll rope some people into joining us as well.
