0:41

0:50
Speaker 3: to it. Unfortunately for you, I'm out for a couple
0:53
Speaker 3: of days as well, so you're gonna have a.
0:54
Speaker 4: Hunter, yeah, a little bit, So it'll be uh.
0:56
Speaker 1: A road throughout camp when you get back you're you're
0:59
Speaker 1: out Thursday, Friday, Monday.
1:00
Speaker 2: Correct.
1:01
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it'll be a it'll be a trend, but
1:03
Speaker 3: it'll be a good one as we get, as we
1:05
Speaker 3: get those guys live up there and a little double listability,
1:08
Speaker 3: but mostly mostly a rotating cabal came.
1:11
Speaker 4: It'll be a lot of fun.
1:12
Speaker 2: What trip are you taking? If any?
1:14
Speaker 3: It is I'm taking a trip to a wedding. My
1:18
Speaker 3: cousin's wedding in Washington, d C. So gonna be exciting
1:21
Speaker 3: to see him get married, see some extended family. And
1:27
Speaker 3: this was a good a good thing because once upon
1:29
Speaker 3: a time, about a year ago, this wedding was scheduled
1:31
Speaker 3: for September, so it was gonna be a bigger issue
1:33
Speaker 3: for me schedule. Oh my, then it will be now.
1:36
Speaker 3: But we've got got it. No, it just got adjusted
1:39
Speaker 3: the original save that. Who knows why the original saved
1:42
Speaker 3: the date or the original implied date was moved up
1:46
Speaker 3: a little bit.
1:47
Speaker 1: Probably a wedding slated for the last weekend in August, yeah,
1:51
Speaker 1: right around the Packers last exhibition game. And I was
1:55
Speaker 1: it was actually convenient because the wedding is Saturday, and
1:57
Speaker 1: the Packers play their expistion game on Friday, that's right,
2:00
Speaker 1: And I thought, and it was in Upper Michigan. So
2:02
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, well'll just stay up in Green
2:04
Speaker 1: Bay area and then drive up to Michigan and may
2:06
Speaker 1: cut it in half. And then that wedding got postponed,
2:09
Speaker 1: not canceled, sure, postponed.
2:11
Speaker 4: Yeah, as you know what I mean.
2:12
Speaker 3: And and this was you know, it's coming up on
2:14
Speaker 3: five years for me, which is hard to believe. But uh,
2:18
Speaker 3: planning and a wedding and trying to organize that it's
2:22
Speaker 3: one of the most challenging things because your vendors and
2:24
Speaker 3: your venues and all these things, and uh usually it's
2:27
Speaker 3: the venue. Usually it's like what what venue you can
2:30
Speaker 3: get that has an available date that adjusts the the
2:34
Speaker 3: dates around and stuff like that.
2:36
Speaker 4: So it can be a busy, challenging thing.
2:38
Speaker 3: I mean, I know, uh, I know someone who's got
2:41
Speaker 3: to stay the date for two years in advance because
2:43
Speaker 3: it's like an Italian wedding and everyone's trying.
2:46
Speaker 4: To do something crazy these days.
2:47
Speaker 3: It feels like it's not like let's go down to
2:50
Speaker 3: the uh local church and uh and and find a
2:53
Speaker 3: and find a fish fry and and and celebrate with
2:55
Speaker 3: a polco band. It's not the same as it used
2:57
Speaker 3: to be, but it's gonna be a lot of fun.
2:59
Speaker 3: It excited to get a couple of days to uh
3:02
Speaker 3: see family, to celebrate that, and uh to hopefully make
3:07
Speaker 3: my way through because I know American Airlines had an
3:09
Speaker 3: it grounding yesterday.
3:11
Speaker 4: They had a ground all flights for a while.
3:13
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is not exciting for me because once again
3:16
Speaker 3: I'm I'm saddled with the curse of American Airlines coming
3:20
Speaker 3: up because we had to get direct. However, I think
3:23
Speaker 3: we should be good and it should be all all
3:25
Speaker 3: fixed and uh, we'll see how it goes. Plane airplane
3:28
Speaker 3: rather than Toddler will be an adventure right as we know.
3:31
Speaker 2: But let us first trip in the bird in the sky.
3:33
Speaker 3: Or she has flown, but she was more of a
3:36
Speaker 3: baby at that point, so she's more of aware this time,
3:38
Speaker 3: more aware of what's going on. So we've been doing
3:41
Speaker 3: a good job though. I've been tracking flights with her
3:43
Speaker 3: Drew for a while. I've been showing her where the
3:45
Speaker 3: airplaneses fly and when they go above us, and for Mitchell,
3:49
Speaker 3: you know, I try and tell her, hey, we're gonna
3:51
Speaker 3: be flying in one of those.
3:52
Speaker 4: She gets excited about that. So we'll see how it goes.
3:56
Speaker 3: I've I've I've read all corners of the internet with
3:59
Speaker 3: every strategy pop.
4:00
Speaker 4: You know it's gonna be hire them up.
4:03
Speaker 3: They'll go fast, event she will go up, We'll come news,
4:05
Speaker 3: Life will be life.
4:06
Speaker 4: We'll go.
4:07
Speaker 2: That's a pretty quick flight.
4:08
Speaker 4: Yeah, a couple hours.
4:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'll be all right.
4:10
Speaker 1: You can reach us on the nicol a lot. I'm
4:12
Speaker 1: talking text on eight seven seven, seven, nine four one
4:14
Speaker 1: ninety seven three. We mentioned for many it's the first
4:16
Speaker 1: day of Christmas. Packers in Camp Billy Nags, Wayne Larravie.
4:24
Speaker 1: It's a little bit like they popped a Viagara this morning.
4:26
Speaker 4: It is.
4:26
Speaker 1: It's like a little blood flow going. They're feeling it.
4:29
Speaker 1: They're they're in their element. They're like, it's here, baby,
4:31
Speaker 1: let's go. And then again my uh, my thousand yard stare,
4:38
Speaker 1: my cold dead eyes of the uh long time sports
4:41
Speaker 1: writers like, yeah, that that is exciting. It feels like
4:44
Speaker 1: the first day of school and stuff, and you're seeing
4:46
Speaker 1: all your friends, and you're seeing all your media friends,
4:48
Speaker 1: and you see it seeing the players again and guys
4:50
Speaker 1: you haven't seen in several weeks or months, you know,
4:53
Speaker 1: since OTA's and sometimes and some guys maybe they didn't
4:56
Speaker 1: even see during OTAs, oh yeah, and then you're like okay, great,
5:00
Speaker 1: and then it starts and you're like, oh god, when
5:02
Speaker 1: does the season start. But it's just like the drudgery
5:07
Speaker 1: and it's like the the novelty wears off really quick.
5:10
Speaker 1: But those guys have a seemingly an endless well of
5:14
Speaker 1: excitement for the football and for the minutia of the camp.
5:18
Speaker 1: Right because again one on one on camps, I said it,
5:22
Speaker 1: and I'll apply it to uh, this circumstance. But I
5:26
Speaker 1: said it with Hunter on the Dennis Crousey Spectrum round
5:29
Speaker 1: Table on Thursday. Thanks everybody for watching that.
5:31
Speaker 4: That's pretty awesome.
5:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he was he was talking about he was
5:33
Speaker 1: excited about Braidon Burry's in the Summer League and being
5:35
Speaker 1: ends of All Summer League team. And I said, Dennis,
5:38
Speaker 1: in order to be an intelligent fan, and our smart,
5:41
Speaker 1: good looking listeners fit the bill of intelligent upper level
5:44
Speaker 1: sports fans, you have to be able to keep two
5:46
Speaker 1: conflicting thoughts in your head at the same time.
5:49
Speaker 4: Yeah.
5:49
Speaker 2: One, Braiden Burry's looks good and it's very promising too.
5:52
Speaker 1: It's just Summer League, and it means nothing, right, but
5:57
Speaker 1: it's all you have.
5:57
Speaker 4: It's a it's like, but you have to.
5:59
Speaker 1: And then my question is we we just said farewell
6:03
Speaker 1: to honest after a thirteen year run, the greatest one
6:05
Speaker 1: of arguably the greatest player in franchise history.
6:09
Speaker 2: What did he do in summer league?
6:11
Speaker 4: O't no idea, no no idea. I can't remember it all.
6:15
Speaker 2: I don't remember good reviews, reviews.
6:16
Speaker 1: I remember nothing I remember in the summer league, which
6:20
Speaker 1: is to say, that's what properly placed.
6:23
Speaker 2: It's like, it doesn't mean anything.
6:25
Speaker 3: Ironically, the only indelible Summer League memory I have is
6:28
Speaker 3: Rashad Vaughan because he went on a run every summer
6:32
Speaker 3: like he he had a great summer.
6:34
Speaker 2: I remember only for cooking well that too on Instagram.
6:38
Speaker 2: Let me season this up a little bit. We used
6:40
Speaker 2: to have that drop.
6:41
Speaker 3: Because it was so consistent and it was so irregular
6:44
Speaker 3: from his regular abilities during the season. It was so
6:47
Speaker 3: indeuble in my mind. However, you're right or we don't
6:49
Speaker 3: remember that, but I think you test on something. It's
6:52
Speaker 3: what we have and if you so, yeah, and that's
6:56
Speaker 3: just it. It's the camp. So okay, Jordan Morgan just got
6:59
Speaker 3: beat in a one on one drill.
7:01
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
7:01
Speaker 1: And you're gonna hear that from ten different accounts, and
7:03
Speaker 1: you're gonna think that he sucks because of he slipped
7:06
Speaker 1: on one play setting up to block in a one
7:08
Speaker 1: on one drill. And it's like we ten stuff gets,
7:13
Speaker 1: you know, the minutia, and it's the churn and it
7:15
Speaker 1: is I'm here for it, like I just know that
7:18
Speaker 1: that's what we're gonna go through, and I'll be part
7:19
Speaker 1: of it because I'm gonna go there and watch and
7:21
Speaker 1: I will be impressed by guys. I remember there's been
7:25
Speaker 1: times when I'm standing by Nags and we get excited
7:27
Speaker 1: about we watch. We zero in on the same player
7:30
Speaker 1: on the sideline and you're like, oh, this is ah,
7:32
Speaker 1: this guy really looks good, and then you realize, no,
7:34
Speaker 1: he's not good.
7:35
Speaker 3: It's much like it's there's some ceremonious aspect to it.
7:38
Speaker 3: It's much like you know, everybody's getting together again after
7:42
Speaker 3: the long break, and it's it's basically it's like a
7:45
Speaker 3: little bit like spring training in that sense, right where
7:48
Speaker 3: the games don't matter, but getting together and sharing the
7:51
Speaker 3: stories and and the little the little minutia of the
7:55
Speaker 3: journey that comes from that specific moment is something that's
7:59
Speaker 3: yours and years only one and you're up there every year,
8:01
Speaker 3: like you know, like the guys that are always at
8:03
Speaker 3: spring training had their own set of stories and their
8:05
Speaker 3: own hotels. The guys are always at camp together had
8:08
Speaker 3: their own sets of memories and sets of stories and
8:10
Speaker 3: sets of traditions of you know, who's wearing the funny
8:13
Speaker 3: hat and the sideline and the sun because it's always hot,
8:16
Speaker 3: you know, and and who's in you know, Jim Schwartz,
8:20
Speaker 3: what's it gonna look like? What music are they gonna play?
8:22
Speaker 3: Watching the like? For me last year when we were
8:25
Speaker 3: up there every day, it was the little things I remembered,
8:27
Speaker 3: like watching the groundscrew guy drive around, the John Deere
8:33
Speaker 3: to pull the to pull the gold pulse around and
8:36
Speaker 3: stuff like that, Like those are just it's almost like
8:39
Speaker 3: if you've ever been a summer camp when you were
8:41
Speaker 3: a kid, especially if you fly sleep away, right, it's
8:44
Speaker 3: like if you saw the same kids every year for
8:47
Speaker 3: that stretch of four or five years, you know, so
8:50
Speaker 3: much has all happened to you over the year, like changes, growth,
8:54
Speaker 3: other memories, consistent home life, friends.
8:57
Speaker 4: But when you get together.
8:58
Speaker 3: Again in that one unique area, in that place, it
9:02
Speaker 3: kind of it's kind of timeless. It puts you together
9:04
Speaker 3: in that own in that unique environment where you're together
9:07
Speaker 3: and where nothing else matters, and where you're you know,
9:10
Speaker 3: you're living this fantasy life again in a way, like
9:13
Speaker 3: not fantasy, but like this removed life where like there's
9:16
Speaker 3: reality is happening around you. But we're here, We're in
9:19
Speaker 3: training camp, and what matters to us is this hundred
9:22
Speaker 3: yards in front of us where guys are just running
9:24
Speaker 3: back and forth in shorts.
9:26
Speaker 4: It and it's a fun memory.
9:28
Speaker 3: And it's a fun memory because it marks the season,
9:30
Speaker 3: it marks time, the people you see. It's things like that,
9:34
Speaker 3: and it's kind of like if you're into the nerdy
9:37
Speaker 3: parts of it, right, the minutia, like you said, the
9:40
Speaker 3: things you you know, it's silly to stress about, like
9:43
Speaker 3: the Brandon Burgy Summer League thing, it's fun to do
9:46
Speaker 3: it though. It's fun to be like, is you gonna
9:47
Speaker 3: what's Tray Smack gonna do from fifty five yards?
9:50
Speaker 4: Oh? No, is he gonna go wide?
9:51
Speaker 2: Right?
9:52
Speaker 4: Like those kind of things are fun to.
9:54
Speaker 3: Enjoy in a way because you know they you can't
9:56
Speaker 3: tell much from it, but you know it's part of
9:58
Speaker 3: this tradition.
9:59
Speaker 4: And you I'm willing to do it. Yeah, So it's
10:02
Speaker 4: an exciting time of the year.
10:04
Speaker 1: Hit us up eight seven seven seven four three, Nicolay Lotta,
10:07
Speaker 1: I'm talking to text signe. Hot take hump Day will
10:10
Speaker 1: hit us at about seven o'clock, but I'm sorry six o'clock,
10:13
Speaker 1: but you can hit us before that with your hot
10:15
Speaker 1: takes if you'd like, including one maybe perhaps about the
10:18
Speaker 1: Milwaukee Brewers bouncing back in a big way with an
10:20
Speaker 1: eight to two victory last evening in San Francisco, A
10:24
Speaker 1: crisp five and two thirds from Logan Henderson, who I
10:30
Speaker 1: was throwing his name into trade rumors and stuff.
10:32
Speaker 2: He might be too good to let go. He might
10:34
Speaker 2: we might have to look somewhere else.
10:35
Speaker 1: If someone asked for Logan Henderson, I might have to say,
10:38
Speaker 1: can I interest you in what's behind door number two?
10:40
Speaker 4: Yeah, because he'd be the prize, wouldn't he. I mean
10:42
Speaker 4: it suresm.
10:43
Speaker 1: I mean any team that asks for a major league
10:45
Speaker 1: ready starter is going to ask for Logan Henderson.
10:47
Speaker 3: And and I caused some people that are completely continuing
10:51
Speaker 3: to complain about change drawing every time I open something
10:53
Speaker 3: about change row.
10:54
Speaker 4: And it's why why does he give up runs? Why
10:56
Speaker 4: can't he be greaty?
10:57
Speaker 3: You know, you know we are kind of spoiled as
11:00
Speaker 3: Burrers fans now with our pictures.
11:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're getting to be like Green Bay fans with quarterbacks.
11:04
Speaker 4: I just think everybody is perfect all the time.
11:06
Speaker 2: Everybody's just got it. Well, Chris hookel fix him, and.
11:08
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, Shane Rowan hasn't completely realized his potential yet. Okay, well,
11:13
Speaker 3: but Logan Henderson seems to be like like you can't
11:16
Speaker 3: get too upset, like if you're upset about Drow and
11:19
Speaker 3: then focus on Logan Henderson, Like the Brewers are still
11:22
Speaker 3: creating successful pictures one way or the other end. And
11:24
Speaker 3: it's so Logan Henderson's the latest example of guys that
11:27
Speaker 3: are impresent that you feel like you don't want to
11:29
Speaker 3: let go.
11:29
Speaker 1: Anybody who's obsessing over Shane drow and walking guys isn't
11:32
Speaker 1: watching him because you see, you know, the flash has
11:36
Speaker 1: been consistency. But why would you not focus on when
11:38
Speaker 1: he's good and he looks and his stuff as like
11:40
Speaker 1: really good and you're like, oh man, this there's something
11:43
Speaker 1: here you can clearly see you don't have to be
11:45
Speaker 1: a pitching coach to see that he's got promise.
11:49
Speaker 2: And if you're worried.
11:51
Speaker 1: Like how can they give him a spot with it
11:53
Speaker 1: because he walks guys and stuff like the Brewers once
11:56
Speaker 1: again are tied with the Dodgers for the best record
11:58
Speaker 1: in basketball.
11:59
Speaker 3: And it's like, if you if you're upset that all
12:01
Speaker 3: of your pitchers aren't perfect or all of your players
12:03
Speaker 3: aren't perfect, you have a lot of really good ones,
12:05
Speaker 3: so you should be excited about that, Like there's a
12:07
Speaker 3: there's no reason to let that be the focus of
12:09
Speaker 3: your eyre. But I guess it's like the old Alman
12:11
Speaker 3: Guire line. There's the type of guys that are upset.
12:13
Speaker 3: Raquel Welch couldn't cook, you.
12:15
Speaker 4: Know, like the there was always something like that.
12:17
Speaker 3: But but the point, But the point is basically, Logan
12:20
Speaker 3: Henderson has been great. He pitched great again last night,
12:22
Speaker 3: and the Brewers kind of needed it. I mean, the
12:24
Speaker 3: Cubs are not letting up Drew.
12:25
Speaker 2: No they're not.
12:26
Speaker 3: They're keeping the pressure on and you kind of felt like, okay,
12:29
Speaker 3: we we had to bounce back and get a win
12:31
Speaker 3: and lo and behold Logan. Henderson gets it done and
12:33
Speaker 3: through some adversity because Vaughn had to drop pop up. Yeah,
12:37
Speaker 3: he had to drop ball at first base. There was
12:39
Speaker 3: some weirdness with the with the challenge that William wanted
12:42
Speaker 3: and they didn't give him. So Logan fought through all
12:45
Speaker 3: that got the job done, stabilized for the Brewers.
12:47
Speaker 4: They got their runs and got the job done.
12:49
Speaker 1: Vaughn drop was not an error, Henderson was. Henderson was
12:53
Speaker 1: charging error for his drop. The Controse had a pass ball,
12:56
Speaker 1: but they also turned two double plays.
12:58
Speaker 2: But the thing with the Brewers is about.
13:00
Speaker 1: Last night, and we've talked about it repeatedly that it
13:02
Speaker 1: seems like they struggle with runners and scoring positions. They
13:05
Speaker 1: don't hit a lot of homers. They're like last in
13:07
Speaker 1: the major leagues and homers. Yet here they are with
13:09
Speaker 1: huge run differential, tied for the best record in baseball.
13:13
Speaker 1: Last night they conjured a couple of rallies out of nothing.
13:16
Speaker 1: And when you can score runs with two outs and
13:18
Speaker 1: nobody on and you end up scoring a couple, that's uh,
13:23
Speaker 1: that's what you're looking for.
13:25
Speaker 2: And I'm looking at the box score and.
13:26
Speaker 1: It's like two out RBI last night terrang two, Lara two,
13:31
Speaker 1: Churio and Pratt and they're boys and girls. Is the
13:37
Speaker 1: difference between you know, the Brewers and the craptastic you
13:41
Speaker 1: know whoever insert crappy team here in Mets. Like the
13:45
Speaker 1: teams that can, uh, you know, they need a veteran leadership.
13:49
Speaker 1: You know what veteran leadership is a two out hit
13:51
Speaker 1: that scores a run. And you got that last night
13:54
Speaker 1: from from Cooper Pratt. You got that last night from
13:58
Speaker 1: Luis Lara, who are young guys and are hardly old.
14:03
Speaker 2: So I mean that's that things are rolling so well
14:07
Speaker 2: for the Brewers.
14:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, they continue to put runners on base all the time.
14:10
Speaker 3: I mean, you don't score eight runs. It's just it's
14:14
Speaker 3: hard to score eight runs without.
14:15
Speaker 1: A home or sprinkled in there, right, I mean, yeah, facts,
14:21
Speaker 1: it's you got your stringer together, it's but if you're
14:23
Speaker 1: gonna get some doubles, they only had, they only had
14:26
Speaker 1: three extra base hits last night, a double and two triples.
14:30
Speaker 3: But they made him count right that, they made them
14:33
Speaker 3: lead the league in doubles, lead MLB in doubles right
14:36
Speaker 3: now with one ninety eight.
14:37
Speaker 4: You'd be surprised that the Rockies are going to.
14:39
Speaker 1: And by the way, Luis Lara is batting two eighty nine.
14:42
Speaker 1: He had three runs batted in last night.
14:45
Speaker 4: Looking good.
14:46
Speaker 3: I was awarded that double d I was worried that
14:48
Speaker 3: double was going to go over the wall. I was like,
14:50
Speaker 3: please clip the wall. That's an extra run. But yeah,
14:52
Speaker 3: he's been coming up.
14:54
Speaker 2: And Pratt's batting two eighty three.
14:55
Speaker 1: He had the single, had had the single and scored
14:58
Speaker 1: a couple of runs. So they're just they're electrifying the
15:03
Speaker 1: back end, the bottom of the rot of the lineup.
15:06
Speaker 1: And again that's like, man.
15:08
Speaker 2: These kids are controllable. The Brewers are going to be
15:10
Speaker 2: good for a while. Man, huge people up.
15:13
Speaker 1: It's like, okay, so you know, everybody can look forward
15:15
Speaker 1: and people have this sense of dread. It's like, oh,
15:17
Speaker 1: we're gonna runner the big monstrous Dodgers and they're gonna lose,
15:20
Speaker 1: or the Phillies might get them.
15:22
Speaker 2: But this seem's gonna be good for a couple of years.
15:24
Speaker 1: Like just looking at the blueprint and the guys that
15:27
Speaker 1: are in place.
15:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's my design, right, that's the that's the
15:31
Speaker 3: whole thing about that role model.
15:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, how do we stay not just this year, but
15:36
Speaker 1: in subsequent years as well. All right, continue hit us
15:39
Speaker 1: up eight seven seven seven nine four seven three. If
15:42
Speaker 1: this was a Monday and we were giving out game balls,
15:44
Speaker 1: kicks the balls, I'd kick myself because I took my
15:47
Speaker 1: work laptop home last night, which I normally don't do.
15:50
Speaker 1: Took it home yesterday, actually used it on a little
15:53
Speaker 1: podcast that I was appearing on nice and I left
15:57
Speaker 1: it at I left it at Stateley. Olsen manor so
15:59
Speaker 1: arm and is loan his laptop because he's got one
16:01
Speaker 1: in his producer's layer. He's got access to a PC.
16:03
Speaker 1: So I'm looking so I'm a bit I'm half playing naked.
16:06
Speaker 1: I'm playing half naked today walking through the bus station
16:09
Speaker 1: with UH strip to the waist.
16:11
Speaker 3: How long does it take you when you get a
16:12
Speaker 3: new computer laptop D to get used to the keywork?
16:15
Speaker 1: And I will never be able to because I just
16:17
Speaker 1: tried to find the period and it takes forever to
16:20
Speaker 1: try to find the period to go to Brewers dot com.
16:22
Speaker 4: Yeah, and took forever when I got that.
16:24
Speaker 3: It honestly took me a good month and a half
16:26
Speaker 3: to get you because you you get so used to
16:28
Speaker 3: this keystrokes, muscle memory exactly and it becomes so different,
16:31
Speaker 3: so it is pretty.
16:32
Speaker 1: I did find one in the locker room, and it's
16:34
Speaker 1: like a think pad, and I can't get it to
16:36
Speaker 1: fire up.
16:36
Speaker 4: It.
16:36
Speaker 2: I plugged it in and it's not firing up right away.
16:39
Speaker 1: But I think this one belonged to Hunter, and if
16:42
Speaker 1: like Hunter, if we can get a hold of him
16:44
Speaker 1: a little bit later, in fact, we're gonna listen to
16:45
Speaker 1: Hunter's recap of the Brewers game. In fact, we'll do
16:48
Speaker 1: that probably next, if I could find maybe him to
16:52
Speaker 1: get in the password.
16:53
Speaker 2: But this thing's just not even firing.
16:54
Speaker 3: That one might be the one that there's one that
16:56
Speaker 3: we can't get logged into for years because we don't
16:58
Speaker 3: have the password pass code.
16:59
Speaker 4: So yeah, I don't I wouldn't wait up for that one.
17:01
Speaker 1: Engineering you might have to have a Yeah, I'm just
17:03
Speaker 1: gonna suffer through. I'm gonna plow through. I'll have I
17:05
Speaker 1: got my phone in my hand. I got Armand's loaner
17:09
Speaker 1: work laptop here with no porn on it, which is depressing.
17:11
Speaker 4: No, it's clear. Sorry about that.
17:13
Speaker 1: You're gonna leave it in my hands for the next
17:15
Speaker 1: three hours. I don't know, we'll see I kid. I can't,
17:18
Speaker 1: I caud I won't do anything to get you in
17:20
Speaker 1: trouble with HR.
17:21
Speaker 4: I can't.
17:22
Speaker 2: I just should not do that too. I appreciate you
17:25
Speaker 2: loading me this last Hey.
17:26
Speaker 3: Drew, I have to admit though, I mean this is
17:28
Speaker 3: coming off your your travel fail.
17:30
Speaker 4: This is a little disappointing, is I know.
17:32
Speaker 1: Well, like I got my phone, I can function with
17:35
Speaker 1: the phone. I just I'm not paralyzed here, right right,
17:39
Speaker 1: that's a good point. Yeah, how we're going to get through.
17:41
Speaker 1: But spinning back to what today is about. Today is about, well,
17:45
Speaker 1: the Birds play at two thirty getaway game, trying to
17:47
Speaker 1: win the series and have a happy off day family trip.
17:51
Speaker 1: If you can have the winning first series on the
17:53
Speaker 1: family trip, that's important because they're going to Anaheim and
17:55
Speaker 1: they'll have a day off. They can take the kids
17:56
Speaker 1: to Disney World, having a nice relaxing day. If they
17:58
Speaker 1: win today, it'll it's gonna be relaxing anyway, but it
18:01
Speaker 1: might be more enjoyable if they win. But the theme
18:04
Speaker 1: today is the first day of school, packers camp. We're
18:06
Speaker 1: gonna hit We're gonna talk about the packers. We're gonna
18:08
Speaker 1: talk about like you know, it's the first day Optimism,
18:14
Speaker 1: Hope Springs Eternal, or Hope Summer's Eternal. We'll talk about
18:18
Speaker 1: the Packers and some depth.
18:19
Speaker 2: Today.
18:19
Speaker 1: Billy will join us at a certain point on his
18:22
Speaker 1: way up to cover practice with Wayne Larvy. We'll catch
18:26
Speaker 1: up with Billy and we'll talk a little bit about that.
18:28
Speaker 1: And I want to know just because I know that
18:31
Speaker 1: there are many people out there who follow the Packers
18:34
Speaker 1: and live and die with the Green and Gold who
18:35
Speaker 1: don't go to games at Lambeau because they don't have tickets.
18:37
Speaker 1: They watch on TV and they just don't make the pilgrimage.
18:41
Speaker 1: But everybody can make the pilgrimage to camp. You can
18:44
Speaker 1: go watch a practice if you can get a day
18:46
Speaker 1: off and free out there and it's all free, and
18:49
Speaker 1: can walk around and if you plan your day, you
18:50
Speaker 1: can go to the pro shop for sure, and you
18:52
Speaker 1: can walk around and get the tour and do the
18:55
Speaker 1: Packers Hall the fame, and you can make a day
18:56
Speaker 1: of it. And it's one of the better day trips
18:59
Speaker 1: for sure in the state. I don't want to know
19:01
Speaker 1: what the others are because it dawned on me that
19:03
Speaker 1: since I've started doing this and in this business, my
19:05
Speaker 1: whole career I don't think I've ever really taken a
19:08
Speaker 1: sports themed get away.
19:10
Speaker 4: Like a trip, because most of your work has been
19:13
Speaker 4: in this sport exactly. It's hard.
19:14
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever done that.
19:16
Speaker 1: I mean, I've gone up to practice and stuff, and
19:18
Speaker 1: I'm going to an occasional Cubs game or something, but
19:21
Speaker 1: I've never made like that sports trip that people I
19:23
Speaker 1: talk to, people like Matt Miller's gonna join sevent twenty five,
19:26
Speaker 1: they do that baseball trip all the times and tradition.
19:29
Speaker 4: So no Derby, nothing like that. Huh.
19:31
Speaker 1: We're going to talk on that and explore that and
19:33
Speaker 1: see what our smart, good looking listeners have to say.
19:36
Speaker 1: We're glad that you're hanging out with us. Billy will
19:38
Speaker 1: join us at a certain point this morning. It's Drew
19:41
Speaker 1: an arm and against the world. You're in the huddle,
19:43
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Back in the huddle, Fox Sports
20:15
Speaker 1: Radio Wisconsin, Drew Wilson arm and sorry we're skating shorthanded
20:17
Speaker 1: because it's training camp. Billy will be in on his
20:20
Speaker 1: way up to grab station vehicle, and I think he's
20:23
Speaker 1: had the gear ready for a while.
20:25
Speaker 2: He is geeked.
20:26
Speaker 4: Yeah, he gots together with a hunter to get some
20:28
Speaker 4: gear together.
20:29
Speaker 3: And uh, I saw the sled parked out there, so
20:32
Speaker 3: he's getting ready to drive it. I saw that big rig.
20:34
Speaker 3: You know, is he taken that the Uh, I don't
20:37
Speaker 3: know if he's taken. No, I don't think he's I
20:39
Speaker 3: don't know. I don't know what vehicle he's.
20:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, he might be taking the country station down the halls. Uh,
20:43
Speaker 1: Subaru outlook or.
20:44
Speaker 3: Whatever the hell whatever keys are on the hangar somewhere. Yeah,
20:46
Speaker 3: pretty much, Well it goes out there, so pretty much.
20:49
Speaker 1: Absolutely we want to hear from our five o'clock clubbers
20:51
Speaker 1: eight seven seven seven nine three.
20:53
Speaker 2: You want to slip in a hot take for hot
20:55
Speaker 2: take Humpday? Great?
20:57
Speaker 1: If not, just check in say hello as Jenny and
20:59
Speaker 1: Apple and did. Jenny said our electricity was back on
21:03
Speaker 1: about four pm yesterday. I can't think the men and
21:05
Speaker 1: women of we Energies enough for working long and hard
21:07
Speaker 1: to get us up and running again. By the way,
21:08
Speaker 1: I road trip to PNC and Pittsburgh was a great
21:10
Speaker 1: sports trip, even if the games were disappointing. Included to
21:13
Speaker 1: stop at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame right
21:15
Speaker 1: on the way home. All right, Janny and Appleton.
21:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, about sports trip, a Rock and Roll Hall of
21:21
Speaker 4: Fame trip drill.
21:22
Speaker 2: That's perfect.
21:23
Speaker 1: I was thinking about that because most of my trips,
21:25
Speaker 1: discretionary fun trips are music themed to go see a
21:28
Speaker 1: band or a festival or something like that, rather than
21:31
Speaker 1: the sports.
21:32
Speaker 2: But we're talking about.
21:34
Speaker 1: Sports trips because I think it's a perfect pilgrimage and
21:38
Speaker 1: every Packers fan, even people who might never make it
21:42
Speaker 1: to a game. I don't have tickets, are they're too expensive,
21:44
Speaker 1: or I just you know, the drive and the proximity
21:48
Speaker 1: where you are in the state.
21:49
Speaker 2: It's a special thing to go to Lambeau.
21:51
Speaker 1: But I'm struck by the fact that an unlike American
21:55
Speaker 1: Family Field, where there's plenty of tickets and you got
21:57
Speaker 1: eighty one opportunities and cheap, cheap skate armand sarian deal days. Yeah,
22:03
Speaker 1: it's not everybody goes to Lambo, and most fans consume
22:07
Speaker 1: Packers football virtually entirely by television, watching the games, and
22:11
Speaker 1: social following the team.
22:13
Speaker 2: Whi's is nothing wrong with that.
22:14
Speaker 1: But training camp is accessible and you can roll up there,
22:18
Speaker 1: and if you're up there early enough, you can get
22:19
Speaker 1: a seat, and you can experience the practice and the
22:22
Speaker 1: uniqueness that is you can watch the kids ride the
22:25
Speaker 1: bikes with the players on the Dream Drive sponsored by
22:28
Speaker 1: American Family Insurance, and you can be part of that
22:32
Speaker 1: and soak in that atmosphere at very little cost.
22:35
Speaker 2: All you need is the time to go up there.
22:37
Speaker 1: And so that got us thinking about great supports trips
22:39
Speaker 1: and Janny, thank you because that's a great one. Because
22:41
Speaker 1: you went to follow the Brewers. There are Brewers fans
22:44
Speaker 1: everywhere you go. When the Brewers are on the road,
22:46
Speaker 1: like last night, they find Brewers fans in the stands.
22:48
Speaker 4: A lot of coops last night, a lot of coops
22:50
Speaker 4: last night.
22:51
Speaker 1: There's some bi park takeovers. Yeah, we know some people
22:53
Speaker 1: that are there. There's some you know. I was gonna say,
22:58
Speaker 1: it's like there there's always pocket And I don't think
23:00
Speaker 1: that the producer director have They don't.
23:02
Speaker 2: I don't think they have to look very hard to
23:04
Speaker 2: find them.
23:04
Speaker 3: No. And the funny thing is, I think it's more
23:06
Speaker 3: common than ever before, Drew. I think that's part of
23:09
Speaker 3: part of our culture as generations change, is trying to
23:11
Speaker 3: travel more or do those things or take those trips.
23:15
Speaker 3: And sports is a great example. I think we've talked
23:18
Speaker 3: so much recently about how there are. You know, sometimes
23:22
Speaker 3: you can plain right as a fan in the NFL,
23:24
Speaker 3: you get upset if there's too much of the opposing
23:26
Speaker 3: team's color in your stadium, and people say, it becomes this,
23:30
Speaker 3: it's become this big discussion. Stop selling your tickets to
23:33
Speaker 3: somebody else. And I say, and it happened when the
23:35
Speaker 3: Detroit Lions had their influx of Honolulu Blue and Lambeau Field.
23:39
Speaker 4: But I think there's a couple.
23:41
Speaker 3: One combination of it is fan bases or people are
23:45
Speaker 3: willing to travel more on destination trips built around their
23:49
Speaker 3: sports team, and especially in the NFL, if it's once
23:52
Speaker 3: a year, if they commit to one game, if they
23:53
Speaker 3: when the schedule comes out, or you see it in baseball,
23:56
Speaker 3: hey we're gonna make this our vacation.
23:58
Speaker 4: We're gonna make this our trip. We're gonna commit to it.
24:00
Speaker 3: And now NFL stadiums, especially Lambeau because of all the
24:04
Speaker 3: reasons we mentioned, has become a bucket list destination four travelers.
24:08
Speaker 3: Whereas once upon a time in our culture, in our society,
24:11
Speaker 3: there wasn't as much traveling for just for a game,
24:15
Speaker 3: And now people are more willing to do things like that,
24:17
Speaker 3: and they're more apt to do it, and that's sometimes
24:20
Speaker 3: for them more fun to spend the money on a
24:22
Speaker 3: trip to see your team on the road than to
24:24
Speaker 3: actually see them at home. We see this with Cubs
24:26
Speaker 3: fans a lot when they come to it. There are
24:27
Speaker 3: some Cubs fans that never go to Wrigley, they only come.
24:30
Speaker 2: They prefer American family.
24:31
Speaker 3: Right, So I think those are a totally different group
24:33
Speaker 3: of fans. It's pretty interesting when you start looking at it.
24:36
Speaker 3: So for all the reasons you mentioned, I think that's
24:39
Speaker 3: an increasing part of our sports culture and everyone seems
24:42
Speaker 3: to have a trip like that.
24:43
Speaker 1: Justin and Jacksonville said, my goal is to go to
24:45
Speaker 1: all NFL stadiums. Definitely harder too, now that I have kids,
24:49
Speaker 1: I've got a decent amount already.
24:51
Speaker 2: And he goes on pretty cool though, moments later to.
24:55
Speaker 1: Tell us the prices of tickets for Packers away games
24:57
Speaker 1: are three to four times more expensive too. I was
25:00
Speaker 1: looking at going to the Tampa Bay game, but the
25:02
Speaker 1: nosebleeds are almost five hundred dollars for two seats. Two
25:05
Speaker 1: weeks before are those same seats were going for sixty
25:08
Speaker 1: five dollars a pop.
25:09
Speaker 4: Boy, isn't that it brought them right away. Yeah, the market,
25:13
Speaker 4: and that's packers fans.
25:14
Speaker 1: And that's why, you know, because in this age, when
25:18
Speaker 1: you can put your tickets for sale and sub stop
25:20
Speaker 1: up unless you sell them directly and someone tells you
25:22
Speaker 1: that they're a package, you know, you don't know who
25:25
Speaker 1: you're selling to. And on the secondary market, anybody can
25:27
Speaker 1: buy anything and there's no filters and there's no you know,
25:31
Speaker 1: I'm only going to sell someone in a certain area code.
25:32
Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't know that you can do that.
25:34
Speaker 3: No, you can't control that. And and I would say
25:36
Speaker 3: this too, jor tell me if you think I'm wrong.
25:37
Speaker 3: But this goes with concerts to a lot and this
25:40
Speaker 3: really became I think the eye spotlight came upon it
25:44
Speaker 3: on this last Taylor Swift tour. There is no such
25:46
Speaker 3: thing really as face value anymore. I mean there is,
25:50
Speaker 3: but there isn't. All pricing is seems to be dynamic
25:53
Speaker 3: these days. Yeah, a lot of these venues. So when
25:55
Speaker 3: people started us free.
25:56
Speaker 2: Arm, pricing is dynamic now in.
25:59
Speaker 4: Store, that's right, That's very true.
26:02
Speaker 1: There's little cameras that they want to use facial recognition technology.
26:05
Speaker 1: They can capture your face, tie it to your Amazon profile,
26:09
Speaker 1: see how much money you spend and change.
26:11
Speaker 2: The price of a product that you grab off shit.
26:13
Speaker 4: And there are literally places like that.
26:15
Speaker 3: I mean we talk about like like it was it
26:17
Speaker 3: was well known that there were a lot of a
26:19
Speaker 3: lot of hotel gift shops in Vegas where their prices
26:21
Speaker 3: aren't even on there.
26:22
Speaker 4: They changed them throughout the day.
26:24
Speaker 3: So dynamic pricing, elastic pricing secondary market is now the
26:29
Speaker 3: primary market in terms of ticket pricing. So when people
26:31
Speaker 3: would say, while they're going for this much, this much,
26:33
Speaker 3: those prices are set by whoever it is the team
26:36
Speaker 3: ticketmaster a lot of times to be like more than
26:39
Speaker 3: just a quote unquote face value. And unless I suppose
26:42
Speaker 3: you buy season tickets of the year before, but they
26:44
Speaker 3: can price them however they want, so that stuff changes
26:46
Speaker 3: as well. That used to be the thing. Go to Tampa.
26:49
Speaker 3: It used to be the Packers fans go to Tampa
26:51
Speaker 3: and it would be eighty percent.
26:52
Speaker 1: And Tampa used to do twenty years ago, thirty years
26:56
Speaker 1: ago they did what Brewers that the Brewers do with
26:58
Speaker 1: the Cubs, it's a marquee game.
26:59
Speaker 4: Cost and prices have only gone up in the NFL.
27:02
Speaker 4: But I think drew because.
27:03
Speaker 3: There's so few games home games, and the NFL is
27:05
Speaker 3: just so popular in this country that even in a
27:08
Speaker 3: market where the teams aren't good, you're still gonna be
27:11
Speaker 3: paying a lot for price.
27:12
Speaker 4: It's just the way it is now.
27:13
Speaker 3: Maybe secondary market drops right before games when when stadiums
27:17
Speaker 3: are empty, but how often an NFL stadium is truly
27:19
Speaker 3: that empty anymore.
27:20
Speaker 4: Just it just seems like something people want to do,
27:22
Speaker 4: and they do it.
27:23
Speaker 3: So it to all that point remains, training camp in
27:27
Speaker 3: green Bay remains one of the special most unique things
27:31
Speaker 3: that you can absorb your of. You can take partake
27:35
Speaker 3: in for basically no money. I mean, you can enjoy.
27:38
Speaker 3: Everything that makes green Bay special is right there training camp,
27:42
Speaker 3: that community feel, going to see practice, seeing players up close,
27:46
Speaker 3: being a part of Lambeau, being a part of the environment.
27:48
Speaker 3: And uh, you can still just walk in and find
27:51
Speaker 3: a seat. So it's pretty tremendous.
27:52
Speaker 1: Yep, you can hit us eight seven seven seven nine
27:54
Speaker 1: four three to me the Packers' training camp day, getting
28:00
Speaker 1: there early, getting your spot on the rail, or finding
28:03
Speaker 1: your spot in the bleachers again still free.
28:06
Speaker 2: Packers don't charge for it. Eventually they probably will because
28:10
Speaker 2: you know, the NFL is.
28:10
Speaker 1: Always one days or something, but that day and going
28:15
Speaker 1: up there and just you know, enjoy.
28:17
Speaker 2: There are people who tailgate before it. There are people
28:19
Speaker 2: who have drinks there.
28:19
Speaker 1: There's plenty of bars in this title town district that
28:22
Speaker 1: you can hit in restaurants, or you can make an
28:24
Speaker 1: entire day of going, you know, wherever you're driving in from.
28:28
Speaker 1: Stop at a quick trip, get yourself a breakfast, sandwich
28:31
Speaker 1: and some some caffee, and then take it there. And
28:34
Speaker 1: then then you avail yourself of you can spend you've
28:39
Speaker 1: been and we've done shows from the Packers Pro Shop,
28:42
Speaker 1: the Team store. Yeah, I mean you could spend an
28:45
Speaker 1: easily spend an hour and a half there.
28:46
Speaker 3: It is so it is so amazing, the huge.
28:52
Speaker 1: So huge, and it's just so overwhelming that you can
28:54
Speaker 1: spend time there. Then you can take the Stadium tour
28:56
Speaker 1: if you sign up for it. You can do the
28:58
Speaker 1: Packers Hall of Fame. There's just boom, it's all right
29:00
Speaker 1: there for you, right, It's.
29:02
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's awesome.
29:03
Speaker 2: So that's a great day sports trip.
29:05
Speaker 1: Now, people who go on those trips and it's like
29:07
Speaker 1: our mission is to see like what I mentioned, Matt
29:10
Speaker 1: Miller and his dad and his brother in law. Do
29:12
Speaker 1: they go in this baseball bonding guy trip and go
29:14
Speaker 1: to minor league parks and have fun and eat the
29:17
Speaker 1: weird food and do this stuff. You know, that's cool.
29:20
Speaker 1: That's a great tradition and those are great memories. But
29:23
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering what other sports trips are because, again,
29:25
Speaker 1: because of what I've done my entire adult life, I
29:27
Speaker 1: haven't really taken.
29:28
Speaker 2: A lot of those. I haven't done.
29:31
Speaker 1: Much of any of those because I've been to a
29:33
Speaker 1: lot of stadiums and I've been to a lot of
29:35
Speaker 1: events that was for work and so I didn't have
29:38
Speaker 1: to do that. So my trips, hey, I'm gonna go
29:40
Speaker 1: to this you know, I'm gonna go to this city
29:42
Speaker 1: and see this band, and then go to the city
29:44
Speaker 1: and see another band.
29:45
Speaker 2: Like, my trips are more music oriented.
29:47
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you have.
29:48
Speaker 3: Something chiming in on the nickolay Laud dot com, I'm
29:49
Speaker 3: talking text line or of course you can always get
29:51
Speaker 3: us on our video stream on Facebook, Twitter, X and YouTube.
29:55
Speaker 3: Greg says I can't wait to visit Raymond James Stadium
29:58
Speaker 3: this year.
29:59
Speaker 4: There you go. Greg on face.
30:00
Speaker 3: Facebook has one as well, talking about that pink Flamingo
30:03
Speaker 3: who training camp today, Packers training camp. I'm way too
30:06
Speaker 3: excited for training camp. But I missed football so much.
30:09
Speaker 3: Pink Flamingo, Obn chiming in excited as well, Drew. It's
30:13
Speaker 3: funny I just read, Uh, I just read something about
30:17
Speaker 3: how NASCAR attendance has dropped the last couple decades because
30:21
Speaker 3: the RV trips that were a tradition in the NASCAR
30:24
Speaker 3: community taking RVs to every track are not as common
30:27
Speaker 3: as they used to be.
30:28
Speaker 4: For one reason or another.
30:29
Speaker 3: Prices have changed, gas prices, It's easier to watch on TV.
30:34
Speaker 4: That was always a big one.
30:35
Speaker 3: People would do the NASCAR and RVs and stuff like
30:38
Speaker 3: that part of the arm.
30:39
Speaker 2: I wonder if the does that has the cost of fuel.
30:41
Speaker 1: Is that going to hurt people going to college football
30:43
Speaker 1: games because it's Rving to the college football games was
30:45
Speaker 1: a thing too.
30:46
Speaker 4: That's exactly another one. You know, used to be horse tracks.
30:50
Speaker 3: I mean people still go to the Derby or the
30:52
Speaker 3: Derby is still destination, but it's also become like more
30:57
Speaker 3: of a you know, a high end place for the rich.
30:59
Speaker 3: It's hard, it's harder to really enjoy it for if
31:01
Speaker 3: you're just a lay person. I think there's another the
31:04
Speaker 3: last horse track in Chicago, Land is closing. I believe
31:07
Speaker 3: Hawthorne so really that I think I read that. I
31:10
Speaker 3: thought I read that. So that was another one that, like,
31:12
Speaker 3: you know, horse tracks more closing. So people used to
31:15
Speaker 3: travel for that type of sporting event obviously. Yeah, the
31:21
Speaker 3: summer baseball trip, and we'll talk to mad about it.
31:24
Speaker 3: Seems to be one that's still in the romanticism of
31:26
Speaker 3: American culture that people still want to take minor league
31:28
Speaker 3: baseball trips things like that.
31:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, I say, you know, there here I'm being cavalier
31:35
Speaker 1: about people's time and money, but I think everybody if
31:37
Speaker 1: you can take a day trip to Lamb but you
31:38
Speaker 1: can do that pretty cheaply. And I think another great
31:41
Speaker 1: trip is making the trip down to Arizona and seeing
31:43
Speaker 1: some spring training.
31:44
Speaker 4: Another one spring training for sure.
31:45
Speaker 1: That's obviously more expensive, but absolutely worth it. And those
31:50
Speaker 1: are like that, would you And again I did that
31:52
Speaker 1: for work. I would go watch spring training and I
31:54
Speaker 1: would go to Arizona during that time.
31:56
Speaker 3: If you really love sports, so your kids really have
31:59
Speaker 3: love for the sports and the athletes and they view
32:02
Speaker 3: them as heroes like I did growing up, you get
32:04
Speaker 3: a chance to be accessible with these guys. I mean,
32:06
Speaker 3: you can see these players close up. You can probably
32:09
Speaker 3: catch an audience or an autograph with them for a
32:10
Speaker 3: few moments, maybe a selfie. It's much more common to
32:13
Speaker 3: do something like that in Green Bay during training camp,
32:16
Speaker 3: or as you said, Drew, as you know at spring training.
32:19
Speaker 2: That's a fantastic time.

Speaker 1: of the exclusive five o'clock club. In the huddle, Fox

Speaker 1: Sports Radio, Wisconsin, Dwayne Larvy broadcasting all the sights, sounds,
33:19
Speaker 1: and smells from the first practice Underwear Olympics. We like
33:23
Speaker 1: to call it yes at training camp and there will
33:26
Speaker 1: be a Brian goodakus pressure beforehand and a Matt Lafleur
33:29
Speaker 1: availability beforehand, and then we'll say goodbye to Goody until
33:32
Speaker 1: probably the draft.
33:35
Speaker 3: Should be interesting, Yeah, that'll be it, right, should be
33:38
Speaker 3: interesting to hear from them. I don't know that it'll
33:40
Speaker 3: be as interesting as it was in the bay yesterday
33:43
Speaker 3: when they hear from Kylestiana and for the first time Drew.
33:45
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, we will probably talk about that. We'll have
33:47
Speaker 2: to take humpting.
33:48
Speaker 3: We'll get into some of that as well, but pretty peculiar,
33:52
Speaker 3: peculiar stuff there.
33:53
Speaker 1: His his accident was something to talk about. And we
33:55
Speaker 1: also have bodycam footage of Tony Romo's arrest. Now we've
33:58
Speaker 1: seen that. Yeah, as I was released circulating meantime, Brewers
34:03
Speaker 1: beat the Giants last night. We got a matinee today
34:06
Speaker 1: and that eight to two victory last night prompted by
34:11
Speaker 1: some timely two out hitting and Logan Henderson's really crisp
34:16
Speaker 1: five and two thirds inning start. He's been really good,
34:19
Speaker 1: really consistent. You know who else is really good and
34:21
Speaker 1: really consistent, Hunter Bombgrat, He's our go to guy for
34:25
Speaker 1: the Brewers. He joins us live on the program on
34:27
Speaker 1: Mondays and Thursdays, and Hunter Bombgrat has a recap of
34:32
Speaker 1: last evening's proceedings. For those of you who were sleeping,
34:34
Speaker 1: and some of you five o'clock clubbers, it's no shame
34:36
Speaker 1: to admit you were snoozing when the Brewers finished their
34:39
Speaker 1: three hour till last night. Towards midnight, Hunter was on
34:44
Speaker 1: the case for us and he's got our report brought
34:47
Speaker 1: to us by import Minded. Take it away, Hunter, Thanks guys.
34:50
Speaker 5: Brewers get a bounce back victory last night, eight to two,
34:53
Speaker 5: the final score over the San Francisco Giants. Will go
34:55
Speaker 5: for the win today of the series. But last night,
34:59
Speaker 5: I think the game changed in the fourth inning. Why
35:01
Speaker 5: because it was one nothing Brewers, two outs, nobody on
35:05
Speaker 5: and then Luis Lara walked and then he stole second base,
35:08
Speaker 5: and then Garrett Mitchell was hit by a pitch, and
35:09
Speaker 5: then Cooper Pratt got an RBI single to score Lara,
35:12
Speaker 5: and then Hamilton walked, and then Terrang with a two
35:15
Speaker 5: RBI single. Suddenly it's four and nothing. They knocked Roupe,
35:18
Speaker 5: the starter out of the game. In that inning with
35:22
Speaker 5: two outs, they went on a rally. And how many
35:24
Speaker 5: times have we seen that this season where they rally
35:27
Speaker 5: with two outs? They did it there up four and
35:29
Speaker 5: nothing and they ran away with it after that. How
35:31
Speaker 5: about Luis Lara then later in the game with a
35:33
Speaker 5: two run triple. The impact of Lara and Pratt in
35:36
Speaker 5: this lineup has been so significant. Laura hitting two eighty
35:40
Speaker 5: nine so it's coming up on July seventh, and Cooper
35:42
Speaker 5: Pratt hitting two eighty three since he came up back
35:46
Speaker 5: in mid June. So it has been incredible by those two.
35:49
Speaker 5: Logan Henderson with the most pitches he's thrown in a
35:51
Speaker 5: start in his career. He goes five and two thirds
35:54
Speaker 5: and then the bullpen takes it from there. Bryce Eldridge
35:57
Speaker 5: late home run for the Giants, but other than that,
35:59
Speaker 5: the Brewers were dominant last night. Shane Drowen on the
36:02
Speaker 5: mound today two forty five, first pitch as they go
36:05
Speaker 5: for the series win against a tough, tough customer, and
36:08
Speaker 5: Logan Webb, who was on the mound for the San
36:11
Speaker 5: Francisco Giants this afternoon. Our one trade deadline nugget Jeff
36:15
Speaker 5: Passing of ESPN saying the Mets and Brewers have had
36:17
Speaker 5: discussions about a trade that would send Freddy Peralta to Milwaukee.
36:21
Speaker 5: Back to Milwaukee, I should say, we'll see where.
36:24
Speaker 2: Those rumors go.
36:25
Speaker 5: Trade deadline Monday at five. This report brought to you
36:29
Speaker 5: by Import Mind and your trust and Choice for Exceptional
36:31
Speaker 5: Vehicle Care on Sound twenty seventh, just north of eight
36:33
Speaker 5: ninety four. Happy first day of Packers training. Cap guys
36:36
Speaker 5: back to you.
36:37
Speaker 4: Thank you Hunter, Hunter, he's the best cheering up.
36:39
Speaker 3: And that Freddy Prawlta thing is an interesting tidbit we
36:43
Speaker 3: saw last night. Through it just seems to make in
36:45
Speaker 3: a lot of ways too much sense. However, I know
36:47
Speaker 3: it strikes people the wrong way a little bit because
36:50
Speaker 3: they will say, oh, more of the same, or Freddy's
36:52
Speaker 3: not the guy, or Freddy hasn't done it this year.
36:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you can't look at.
36:55
Speaker 3: It is like they're making Freddy Peralta to be a
36:59
Speaker 3: franchise changing move, right. We just talked about how they
37:02
Speaker 3: need innings eaters, they need some depth they need.
37:06
Speaker 1: We talked about it because again we're projecting everything onto October.
37:10
Speaker 1: There are two months left of innings to eat, right,
37:13
Speaker 1: and so if Freddy Parolta can get you keep you
37:17
Speaker 1: in a game for five innings ten times, then there's
37:21
Speaker 1: value in that. But that's not the move that's going
37:23
Speaker 1: to make you think order the rings and plan the.
37:25
Speaker 4: Prole nor should it. And that's fine.
37:27
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're gonna get Freddy Perolta the bolts
37:29
Speaker 1: or something, okay, But I still think they need to
37:32
Speaker 1: make the splashy move and get a bigger names.
37:35
Speaker 4: Yeah.
37:35
Speaker 3: And I don't think you're caliber arm. Yeah, I don't
37:38
Speaker 3: think you're wrong. And a lot of that is availability.
37:39
Speaker 3: We'll see what happens and we'll see it's available. But
37:42
Speaker 3: wouldn't it be.
37:43
Speaker 2: Would it be the total Mets thing though?
37:45
Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be the total in your face to get
37:49
Speaker 1: like I said, for a box of Krispy Kremes and
37:51
Speaker 1: a broken bat, to get Freddy per Alta.
37:53
Speaker 2: Because I'm not giving up a.
37:54
Speaker 4: Lot for him.
37:54
Speaker 3: No, I think that's the point. I don't think the
37:56
Speaker 3: price is that high. The price shouldn't be high. I
37:57
Speaker 3: think that's the point. I think that makes it attractive
37:59
Speaker 3: to the Brewers is that you can give a mid
38:01
Speaker 3: tier prospect or something like that.
38:03
Speaker 1: If you can get him and he doesn't make a
38:05
Speaker 1: lot of money and he's it is kind of a
38:07
Speaker 1: rental because you know, you don't know.
38:08
Speaker 2: Maybe he wants to sign in Milwaukee as a free agent.
38:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, and maybe the change crisis his prices come down
38:14
Speaker 1: because performance this year significantly.
38:15
Speaker 4: Maybe the change of scenery makes him find something.
38:18
Speaker 2: But I'm agnostic on it.
38:19
Speaker 1: If you get him, great, He's a good dude and
38:21
Speaker 1: he you know, you feel better about him than some
38:24
Speaker 1: of the guys that they're running out there in the rotation.
38:26
Speaker 1: Put it this way, in August and September, I would
38:31
Speaker 1: rather see Freddy Peralta on the mound than Coleman Crow.
38:36
Speaker 4: I totally agree with that. I do.
38:38
Speaker 3: He's got the experience, he's got the ability, he's been
38:41
Speaker 3: around these parts more.
38:42
Speaker 4: Yeah, you just had the confidence in what he can do.
38:45
Speaker 3: I think people get so locked into what these guys
38:48
Speaker 3: do in the most recent output, and they think that
38:51
Speaker 3: that is they're destined to be that player. But player,
38:54
Speaker 3: but player performance is constantly changing. It's it's a fluid thing.
38:59
Speaker 3: It's not linear, you know. And there's no reason to
39:02
Speaker 3: think that putting a new situation, with a new boost
39:05
Speaker 3: of burden lifted from him and with some tweaks from
39:09
Speaker 3: the staff that Freddy can't figure out. Whatever it was,
39:11
Speaker 3: it made him really good in the past. I don't
39:13
Speaker 3: think all of a sudden he lost ability. I just think,
39:16
Speaker 3: you know, he started off okay with some pressure on
39:18
Speaker 3: a team that had all kinds of negativity around them
39:21
Speaker 3: and losing, and that stuff permeates and then he'd be
39:24
Speaker 3: in the opposite situation.
39:25
Speaker 1: He did lose some velocity and some spin rates and
39:27
Speaker 1: some so there is some physical aspect to it. But again,
39:33
Speaker 1: maybe this is like lurds where they bring in give
39:35
Speaker 1: us you retired, your poor ar huddled masses yearning to
39:38
Speaker 1: lower their e r come and see Chris Hook and
39:41
Speaker 1: Jim Henderson.
39:42
Speaker 4: Maybe that's it, and maybe you don't need him for
39:43
Speaker 4: eight innings, you know.
39:44
Speaker 3: Maybe you get that, so you might get a burst
39:49
Speaker 3: somewhere here and there.
39:50
Speaker 1: But yeah, but like I said, there's value in that,
39:52
Speaker 1: and yes, we've seen the Brewers like they've been able
39:56
Speaker 1: to they've overcome short starts, but that that's a dangerous game.
40:02
Speaker 1: That's not something you can bank on. We oh, we
40:03
Speaker 1: got you know, our starter, got us in the fourth.
40:05
Speaker 1: Well that's not enough. Fifth is the baseline, and that's Freddy.
40:09
Speaker 1: So yeah, if if you can get Freddy back in
40:12
Speaker 1: up and running kind of the way he was last
40:14
Speaker 1: year or the year before, nothing wrong with it, but
40:16
Speaker 1: to think that that's the only move and like, okay,
40:18
Speaker 1: we got our guy.
40:19
Speaker 2: Now that's not gonna that's not gonna fly.
40:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, John and FONDI great listener has been giving us
40:23
Speaker 3: a lot of great TEXTA this morning. He had that
40:25
Speaker 3: kind of sentiment where he said, you want to take
40:27
Speaker 3: the next steps, Freddy doesn't take you there. Well maybe
40:30
Speaker 3: maybe not, but that's not the point I think. I
40:32
Speaker 3: think that's not what you'd get him for.
40:34
Speaker 4: I don't know why.
40:34
Speaker 3: It just seems to offend people, the idea of doing that.
40:36
Speaker 3: I think people want something so bad, which is understandable.
40:39
Speaker 3: They want a world series and they want to feel
40:42
Speaker 3: like there's something tangible to unlocked that key, unlocked that door,
40:45
Speaker 3: whether or not that's true, I'm not sure.
40:47
Speaker 4: I don't think that there is one thing.
40:48
Speaker 3: But people, because of that are so inclined to say,
40:51
Speaker 3: push harder, make a certain move, make a harder move,
40:54
Speaker 3: make a bigger move. But doesn't always work like that,
40:57
Speaker 3: not always.
40:57
Speaker 2: Nope, we're off and running.
40:59
Speaker 1: Billy will be in at some point this morning on
41:01
Speaker 1: his way up to practice once again. First day of Packers'
41:04
Speaker 1: training camp. We'll dive deeper into the football part of
41:06
Speaker 1: things as we move forward, and we're going to fire
41:09
Speaker 1: up the hot tech hump Day machine. That's right, eight
41:11
Speaker 1: seven seven, seven nine four one ninety seven three, gets
41:13
Speaker 1: them in, share them with us.
