Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Dominating a Wednesday in the good Land. It's the Huddle.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin nine to twenty, Milwaukee ten seventy,
- 0:05Speaker 2: Madison Druls and Bill Schmid bringing it to you. Dave
- 0:08Speaker 2: Gasper pushing the buttons in place of armand Sariin who
- 0:12Speaker 2: is pulling slot machines and trying to find good deals.
- 0:15Speaker 3: In Vegas, finding any value possible, and uh, you know what,
- 0:20Speaker 3: maybe he's gonna maybe he's gonna hit it big. I
- 0:22Speaker 3: mean there was somebody a week or so ago Drew
- 0:24Speaker 3: won ten point three million dollars on a slot machine
- 0:28Speaker 3: out in Las Vegas.
- 0:29Speaker 2: As arman, you think a pool guy those daytime pool parties.
- 0:32Speaker 2: He loves the phone parties at like when we had
- 0:34Speaker 2: Sunburn Bowl and stuff. He loves the vibe of the
- 0:38Speaker 2: phone party made him happier than.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Any than anything else.
- 0:41Speaker 3: Yeah, he definitely would strike me as he is going
- 0:45Speaker 3: to be hanging out at any pool party that's free.
- 0:47Speaker 3: I was gonna say, he's not paying for a cabana. No,
- 0:50Speaker 3: definitely not you kidding me, But the chare he ain't
- 0:54Speaker 3: paying for a share?
- 0:56Speaker 1: He might go and find one.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got to find a free pool, not a
- 0:59Speaker 2: cut a cover charge party pool. Right Well, I was
- 1:02Speaker 2: gonna say he's he's gonna make sure that to find
- 1:05Speaker 2: any different possibility to get into whatever spot that you could.
- 1:09Speaker 2: Now I do know they're saying, I think over at
- 1:12Speaker 2: the Paris good pool right there. Not the party pool
- 1:16Speaker 2: that you potentially want, but a nice little lounging relaxation.
- 1:21Speaker 1: Let's be honest. If he's gonna be rocking the robbers, which.
- 1:24Speaker 3: We already know he's got, we already know, we already
- 1:26Speaker 3: know he packed that blue Banana Robber Boss, that blue
- 1:32Speaker 3: Lucky Banana shirt with the matching try. We know that
- 1:35Speaker 3: he rocked that, he backed that thing and is ready
- 1:37Speaker 3: to uh to bust it out. So I would assume
- 1:40Speaker 3: he's gonna be living his best life sitting by the
- 1:42Speaker 3: pool at something.
- 1:43Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he's gonna be cooking together some twelve fifteen
- 1:46Speaker 4: like parlays at plus two forty, and he's gonna be
- 1:50Speaker 4: living his best life.
- 1:51Speaker 3: He gets so mad, and it's one of my favorite
- 1:54Speaker 3: things to then just try to find if I could lead.
- 1:56Speaker 3: People might notice this on the show. I do like
- 1:58Speaker 3: to agitate arm and every once in a while. No, well,
- 2:01Speaker 3: it's one of it's become one of my favorite pastimes
- 2:05Speaker 3: in the world is just see if I see if
- 2:06Speaker 3: I can get that little vein on the side of
- 2:08Speaker 3: his head to really jump off, jump out of the
- 2:11Speaker 3: skin and drew.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Nothing would aggravate him more.
- 2:14Speaker 3: While we're there when people ask him if he signed
- 2:17Speaker 3: up for the sports book app.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Oh boy.
- 2:19Speaker 3: So when he's sitting by the machine now the kiosk
- 2:23Speaker 3: at the Potawadamy sports Book, they got these big, big
- 2:26Speaker 3: old screens you can swipe all the way through see
- 2:29Speaker 3: the entire menu.
- 2:30Speaker 1: You know, some of these places no bigger than.
- 2:33Speaker 3: An iPad, and so it's not necessarily the best product
- 2:36Speaker 3: to begin with. So I'll always ask the guy that
- 2:39Speaker 3: just talked to me, Hey, I signed up. But that
- 2:43Speaker 3: guy right over there, he was actually wondering if there
- 2:45Speaker 3: was any more information that you had on the MGM app.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Could you go and see if there's talk? Yeah, So
- 2:53Speaker 3: I led the one guy over to him three different times.
- 2:55Speaker 3: I paid him at twenty to continually go back and
- 2:58Speaker 3: see how many times he could ask Arman. The best
- 3:02Speaker 3: thing was, I got all of that value back when
- 3:04Speaker 3: Arman came back three separate times to complain about the
- 3:07Speaker 3: same guy asking him if he got the app. So
- 3:12Speaker 3: that's one of those values, Drew, that you're not gonna
- 3:14Speaker 3: find in an entertainment book.
- 3:16Speaker 1: You might not know.
- 3:17Speaker 3: That's better than a street vendor or one of the
- 3:19Speaker 3: street performers. Was this nineteen year old that was finding
- 3:22Speaker 3: a different way to ask arman, Sir, I know that
- 3:25Speaker 3: you have these paper tickets, but I don't know if
- 3:27Speaker 3: you care about the environment. We could find that on
- 3:29Speaker 3: your phone. You could have that and you can track
- 3:30Speaker 3: that right here. But your see, you wouldn't even have
- 3:32Speaker 3: to get up this.
- 3:33Speaker 1: This guy just won't stop. I don't get it. I
- 3:35Speaker 1: don't get it. I obviously know what the app. I
- 3:37Speaker 1: don't already have it. I don't know what he needs.
- 3:39Speaker 1: And fine, oh you're big pimping him.
- 3:42Speaker 3: I love it, and Drew Plane at thirteen Uh also
- 3:45Speaker 3: was a part of that conversation and it made that
- 3:48Speaker 3: made a Saturday morning elite viewing experience there in Las Vegas.
- 3:52Speaker 3: So I hope Lara takes that advice that I gave
- 3:55Speaker 3: her of just slide somebody a tip and see how
- 3:58Speaker 3: mad that's she can. That we can at this young
- 4:00Speaker 3: boy for at least an hour of this trip.
- 4:02Speaker 2: No question, We want your hot takes to Tate hump Day,
- 4:05Speaker 2: your strong opinions. We've relaxed our standards. You can make
- 4:08Speaker 2: a prediction if you care to absolutely send them in
- 4:11Speaker 2: eight seven seven seven nine three. Nicolay Lodak, I'm talking
- 4:15Speaker 2: text on this hot take, hump Day. I'm giving her
- 4:19Speaker 2: the benefit of the doubt. But if Diana Rossini is
- 4:21Speaker 2: indeed romantically involved with Mike Rabel, that might be, in
- 4:25Speaker 2: my opinion, a fireable offense.
- 4:26Speaker 1: Is that a ticket to working for Barstool Sports? I
- 4:29Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah they would.
- 4:30Speaker 3: I mean she's she's buddies with with PMT the r
- 4:34Speaker 3: PFT from the part. In my take guys like she
- 4:37Speaker 3: would definitely fit in somewhere, but like it does feel
- 4:41Speaker 3: it would be difficult for again, not only just like
- 4:44Speaker 3: any journalism institution, right, but for the athletics. She's their
- 4:49Speaker 3: number one source of all things news and information. I
- 4:54Speaker 3: would struggle that they're going to keep her as their
- 4:56Speaker 3: senior insider if that would be the case true.
- 4:58Speaker 2: I remember a time when there was a female reporter
- 5:03Speaker 2: in Chicago that worked for a worked for a national
- 5:07Speaker 2: outlet kind of like The Athletic that covered all sports,
- 5:11Speaker 2: and she was based in Chicago, and she told her
- 5:13Speaker 2: bosses that she had decided to see one of the
- 5:15Speaker 2: Cubs players socially m M. And the response was, well,
- 5:20Speaker 2: you will never be involved with covering the Cubs ever
- 5:23Speaker 2: again again. You you shut that off, You're done, done so,
- 5:27Speaker 2: and that that was, you know, the choice that you made.
- 5:30Speaker 2: She ended up like leaving that market officially, I don't know.
- 5:33Speaker 2: And they ended up not getting married or anything, but
- 5:35Speaker 2: that was that was the that was the There was
- 5:38Speaker 2: no compromise. It's like, you've decided to see this guy.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Well you're you'll never cover a Cubs event again.
- 5:42Speaker 1: Well and I know that.
- 5:43Speaker 3: Uh Jenny Dell, who is on CBS Sports married to
- 5:48Speaker 3: Will Middlebrooks.
- 5:49Speaker 1: Yeah right, I'm not mistaken.
- 5:51Speaker 3: And he was the third basement at the time when
- 5:53Speaker 3: they were in Boston in fatnizing and romantically involved in Boston.
- 5:59Speaker 3: She was in Boston for a while after that, right,
- 6:02Speaker 3: and then went on but same deal, like it again.
- 6:05Speaker 3: I'm not saying that there's the level she was quite popular.
- 6:08Speaker 3: She's she was very very popular there and I don't
- 6:11Speaker 3: think it was probably an easy decision when they said, hey,
- 6:13Speaker 3: if this is going to continue or maybe we like
- 6:16Speaker 3: Jenny more than we like Will Middlebrooks, and we'll just
- 6:18Speaker 3: trade him to the Padres. We'll solve this whole problem
- 6:21Speaker 3: if we just do that side of the equation.
- 6:23Speaker 2: Yeah, Hazel May was also a Red Sox. She was
- 6:27Speaker 2: a sideline reporter for Nessen and she ended up marrying
- 6:30Speaker 2: Kevin Barker, former Burris first base prospect that they trotted
- 6:33Speaker 2: around the state like he was going to be good
- 6:34Speaker 2: in the late nineties and didn't pan out. Now he's
- 6:37Speaker 2: doing a talk radio show up in Toronto. Oh okay,
- 6:40Speaker 2: time what he's on with?
- 6:40Speaker 5: My buddy?
- 6:41Speaker 2: Uh, he's Jeff Blair, he's his partner. It's Blair and
- 6:45Speaker 2: Barker and they're h and Hazel.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Still she's she's still doing stuff. So yeah, well that
- 6:53Speaker 1: that's awesome.
- 6:54Speaker 3: So apparently it does turn into then you will maybe
- 6:56Speaker 3: work at media because I think Will Middlebrooks Uh, he
- 6:59Speaker 3: also joined that's in at one point. So neither side
- 7:03Speaker 3: cared that much about it that they were both fan
- 7:05Speaker 3: favorites enough to roll through.
- 7:07Speaker 1: But this is a different deal.
- 7:08Speaker 3: I mean, this is a one of thirty two head
- 7:10Speaker 3: coach of the National Football League. Both again still married,
- 7:13Speaker 3: which is a part of the conversation. But listen, Yes,
- 7:17Speaker 3: you speak things into existence. You talk about it too much.
- 7:20Speaker 3: You go on a national radio show and you joke
- 7:22Speaker 3: about your mother saying that you think her that your
- 7:24Speaker 3: husband might be having a girlfriend because you're always covering this.
- 7:27Speaker 1: Football thing and he's looking really good. Hey, things about.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Nobody, like consenting adults and what happens behind closed doors
- 7:33Speaker 2: and people's relationships usually off limits. But if it calls
- 7:36Speaker 2: into question your integrity and like the veracity of your
- 7:42Speaker 2: reports and whether your reports are whether you're motivated, like,
- 7:45Speaker 2: then that there's a line, right, and this is just
- 7:47Speaker 2: just a line, like she you can't cover the NFL
- 7:50Speaker 2: and like be dating a coach, you just can't.
- 7:52Speaker 1: That's the thing. It's also different.
- 7:54Speaker 3: I do believe it's different if it's a player on
- 7:57Speaker 3: a team that you're working specifically with that like that,
- 8:00Speaker 3: the situations do seem different to me.
- 8:02Speaker 1: The other one here, Drew is and I don't know.
- 8:07Speaker 3: I'm not going to come from it as just her integrity.
- 8:10Speaker 3: They will absolutely look at it. I also think businesses
- 8:13Speaker 3: look by are selfish as they need to be in
- 8:15Speaker 3: these situations. And if you're the athletic, you're like this
- 8:18Speaker 3: is going to hurt us more than it's hurting her.
- 8:21Speaker 1: Is that fair?
- 8:22Speaker 3: Like this is going to call into question potentially what
- 8:25Speaker 3: we have being put forth in front of fans and
- 8:27Speaker 3: the biggest driver to subscribers of our company and of
- 8:32Speaker 3: our page every single year. And there's just when when
- 8:37Speaker 3: you're the lead dog there, there's also going to be
- 8:40Speaker 3: this part of it, which is a different wrinkle in
- 8:43Speaker 3: the conversation. It's not like there's not insiders potentially available, right,
- 8:49Speaker 3: I mean, like with the NFL network now being owned
- 8:51Speaker 3: by ESPN, you would assume that there will be certain
- 8:55Speaker 3: guys contracts not renewed, and maybe the Athletics said, oh
- 8:58Speaker 3: so we can we can maybe grab a Tom Pelisero
- 9:01Speaker 3: and we can have the same kind of insider game
- 9:04Speaker 3: without a stop in Sedona.
- 9:05Speaker 1: They might like that deal.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Could be Brian and Depier hits u up, Nikolay lott Co,
- 9:09Speaker 2: I'm talking text line eight seven seven seven three, hot take.
- 9:13Speaker 2: The Haslim curse has fully engulfed the Milwaukee Bucks franchise.
- 9:16Speaker 2: There's no way out now, no light at the end
- 9:18Speaker 2: of the tunnel. Franchise is cooked.
- 9:22Speaker 1: Oh damn, damn.
- 9:23Speaker 2: Well, now the haslms with you can say that hot
- 9:26Speaker 2: take the brown's gonna brown and if you want to
- 9:29Speaker 2: use that as your measuring stick, sure, But they also
- 9:30Speaker 2: do on the Columbus Crew, and they won a couple
- 9:32Speaker 2: of MLS cups under the HASLM, so they have Okay,
- 9:35Speaker 2: there's some championship lineage and I think Josh Glessing, the
- 9:38Speaker 2: Bucks president, was running the show there. So there's a
- 9:41Speaker 2: sliver of hope. But Brian, you're logic for the flawed,
- 9:44Speaker 2: but it just takes a little bit. Plus Wes Edens
- 9:46Speaker 2: is still the controlling governor right, still the controlling governor
- 9:48Speaker 2: for I think one more year. I think next year
- 9:51Speaker 2: is when that when that turns over for a five
- 9:52Speaker 2: year deal, and then again in five years it'll it'll
- 9:55Speaker 2: turn out. The HASLM buy is still fascinating to me,
- 9:59Speaker 2: is to wear the value was and what it was
- 10:02Speaker 2: of the organization when he purchased it where it is now,
- 10:05Speaker 2: Like Jimmy Haslam owns teams because he likes owning teams. Yeah, right,
- 10:09Speaker 2: Like it doesn't seem like to me, Yeah, it's not
- 10:12Speaker 2: as much for a Mark Lazry And maybe it was
- 10:15Speaker 2: Wes Edens at one time.
- 10:16Speaker 1: Maybe it's not as much.
- 10:17Speaker 3: Now there's a business investment, right and when we tenfold
- 10:20Speaker 3: our investment, it's time to move off of it. It's
- 10:22Speaker 3: time to get that cash. But the valuations of NBA
- 10:26Speaker 3: teams did continue to go up after they sold, and
- 10:29Speaker 3: I don't think he's getting out of it at any
- 10:31Speaker 3: time soon.
- 10:32Speaker 1: So Edens has some Premier League ties as well. Yeah,
- 10:35Speaker 1: they like owning teams because they like one of the games.
- 10:38Speaker 3: So I'm fascinated with Glessing And now I do believe
- 10:41Speaker 3: Drew he deserves a little bit of runway to get
- 10:44Speaker 3: his fingerprints on this because as much as this was
- 10:46Speaker 3: a gap, ne're in transition year for the team on
- 10:48Speaker 3: the floor around Giannis. Maybe the biggest transition was the
- 10:52Speaker 3: fact that Peter Fagan's not the that's huge operating president.
- 10:57Speaker 2: Yeah, and maybe this is a maybe they are going
- 10:59Speaker 2: to go to a youth movement because there's a lot
- 11:02Speaker 2: of talk about who the MVP of.
- 11:04Speaker 5: The league is.
- 11:05Speaker 1: Mm hmm, is it Sga? Is it the joker?
- 11:08Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I'll tell you who the best
- 11:09Speaker 3: player is, and it's nicolea Jokish.
- 11:11Speaker 2: Yeah, but is the most valuable And then you think
- 11:13Speaker 2: about it and you say, well, who's more valuable to
- 11:15Speaker 2: their franchise than Yannis? He means everything to this, like
- 11:19Speaker 2: the whole operation has been based around Yannis. The developments
- 11:22Speaker 2: around the Deer District, like the Pfisser Form basically the
- 11:26Speaker 2: house that Yannis built kind of right, I mean not
- 11:29Speaker 2: totally but yes.
- 11:31Speaker 3: Maybe not totally drew, but everything around there, and you
- 11:33Speaker 3: hit on it to development around there doesn't happen if
- 11:36Speaker 3: thirty four is not invant.
- 11:38Speaker 2: As relevant as it's been, and when he leaves, the
- 11:40Speaker 2: Bucks are going to have a period where they are
- 11:42Speaker 2: not going to be in any way relevant, and that
- 11:44Speaker 2: you can say, well, they have been relevant all this year,
- 11:46Speaker 2: true except for the churn of the Yannist stuff.
- 11:49Speaker 3: Except that they're talked about more on espy as sick
- 11:53Speaker 3: as everybody is of that and I mentioned it almost
- 11:55Speaker 3: every year going in the NBA All Star Game.
- 11:57Speaker 2: I'm not a big fan of the NBA All Star Game,
- 11:59Speaker 2: but I like the fact that Giannis is a staple
- 12:01Speaker 2: there and then he's you know, even when he's heard,
- 12:03Speaker 2: he's coaching, and he's like there and he's representing. Because
- 12:07Speaker 2: I'm old enough to remember like the fifteen years when
- 12:09Speaker 2: the Bucks didn't have anybody at the game ever, and
- 12:11Speaker 2: I was like, oh, no representation.
- 12:13Speaker 1: You just didn't exist in the league. You were invisible.
- 12:16Speaker 3: There was a reason why Michael Red got a max
- 12:18Speaker 3: contract because they won the they won the gold medal
- 12:21Speaker 3: and he was an All Star and it's like, holy cow,
- 12:22Speaker 3: we have one. Yeah, there's no way you can let
- 12:25Speaker 3: this guy out of the building. He ended that drought.
- 12:27Speaker 3: And I don't want to go back to those days.
- 12:30Speaker 1: But are we going? Are we headed that way? We'll see, Man,
- 12:34Speaker 1: it seems sooner rather than later. We're I've seen and.
- 12:37Speaker 2: Well and again like Oklahoma City, they're they're in there
- 12:41Speaker 2: since they moved from Seattle. They had that era of
- 12:44Speaker 2: the wonder kids MM with KD and Harden and Westbrook
- 12:48Speaker 2: didn't win a title, didn't get over a hump, and
- 12:50Speaker 2: then they stumbled.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Around a while and then low and behold.
- 12:52Speaker 2: Now they're the model franchise in all the sports, Poised
- 12:55Speaker 2: to win a second straight and with an option to
- 12:57Speaker 2: win three or four in this run if they can
- 13:00Speaker 2: keep things together.
- 13:02Speaker 1: That seemed unlikely. Now with the Bucks.
- 13:05Speaker 2: You saw Michigan go from what they win nine ten
- 13:08Speaker 2: games to eight games two years ago and that's all
- 13:11Speaker 2: champion title. It's funny because you can almost you can
- 13:15Speaker 2: almost make a case that it's now easier to make
- 13:17Speaker 2: a drastic turnaround in college sports than it.
- 13:19Speaker 1: Is in pros. I would totally agree, especially.
- 13:22Speaker 2: For because pros they got these damn long term contracts
- 13:25Speaker 2: that you gotta work around.
- 13:26Speaker 3: Yeah, the long term deals drew and and the lack
- 13:29Speaker 3: of an ability to really make your team a lot
- 13:32Speaker 3: better outside of the draft. Because the the other part
- 13:35Speaker 3: was like, at some point you would build up enough
- 13:37Speaker 3: cap space and then you'd sign players in free agency,
- 13:40Speaker 3: but the best players don't really hit free agency. You're
- 13:42Speaker 3: seeing it here with Giannis. What is he going to
- 13:44Speaker 3: do potentially open up a bidding war four teams to
- 13:48Speaker 3: trade for. There hasn't been a star player that hit
- 13:50Speaker 3: free agency, frankly, like since Lebron when he signed with
- 13:54Speaker 3: the Lakers, because Kdie got traded uh twice when I'm
- 13:58Speaker 3: thinking traded, like I changed. Yeah, And it's become a
- 14:01Speaker 3: deal where it's like three times in five years. Once
- 14:03Speaker 3: you're done, once you're done in a place, signed the extension,
- 14:07Speaker 3: wait nine months, then demand a trade. So this one
- 14:10Speaker 3: is also coming up at just a different timing of it,
- 14:13Speaker 3: And I'm wondering how much the year and a half
- 14:18Speaker 3: removed from the Doncic deal will get and how much
- 14:22Speaker 3: the course correction will come back on trade values? Right,
- 14:25Speaker 3: like long gone are the days of a team I
- 14:28Speaker 3: think trading away five or six first round picks, like
- 14:31Speaker 3: Rudy Gobert commanded, it's gonna be a lot more of
- 14:34Speaker 3: you know, you might get two or three picks and
- 14:36Speaker 3: a collection of players. But even SGA he was the
- 14:39Speaker 3: centerpiece of the deal that Paul George got. Nobody expected
- 14:43Speaker 3: that he was going to find himself as a potential
- 14:45Speaker 3: back to back MVP. You gotta be able to figure
- 14:48Speaker 3: out the player development side that the Bucks have really
- 14:51Speaker 3: whiffed on over the last five or six years. They
- 14:54Speaker 3: got old really quickly because yeah, they traded some first
- 14:56Speaker 3: round picks, they also did get draft picks that never were.
- 15:00Speaker 1: Able to become rotation players. Didn't didn't they trade five
- 15:03Speaker 1: second rounders for Jay Crowder.
- 15:05Speaker 3: Yeah, five second rounders for Jay Crowder. But like I mean,
- 15:08Speaker 3: in the midst of it, they had, you know, a J. Johnson,
- 15:10Speaker 3: they didn't find a chance to even develop. Here he
- 15:14Speaker 3: saw like a Rashad Vaughan. I'm going way back into
- 15:16Speaker 3: that one, but he became less than a rotation player.
- 15:19Speaker 1: And DJ Wilson is.
- 15:21Speaker 3: Celebrating the Michigan Wolverines national title playing and I don't
- 15:24Speaker 3: know stand So it's it's a tough spot when you're
- 15:28Speaker 3: unable to replenish with young players that are actual NBA guys.
- 15:31Speaker 2: If you haven't read it yet, go to JS online
- 15:33Speaker 2: read Jim Ozarski's interview. He and Eric Name had an
- 15:36Speaker 2: audience with John Horst, and Ozarski printed most of the
- 15:38Speaker 2: whole transcript. You can read it check it out. Also
- 15:41Speaker 2: with the Bucks, we didn't even point out Kevin Porter
- 15:43Speaker 2: junior knee surgery out out for won't finish the last
- 15:47Speaker 2: couple he's been out, but get better to get that
- 15:50Speaker 2: clean up because they got him for another year. Yeah,
- 15:52Speaker 2: if they choose to bring him back, like if Jannis
- 15:55Speaker 2: has gone, I mean, I guess I would keep Uzman,
- 15:58Speaker 2: Jeng and I would keep I'd keep jang In, Rollins,
- 16:01Speaker 2: Sims and Rollins and try to go to town with
- 16:04Speaker 2: the rest of it, just anybody and.
- 16:05Speaker 3: My boy Pete Nance. I want Pete Nants. I want
- 16:08Speaker 3: Pete Nants a part of the fold. But otherwise it's
- 16:11Speaker 3: gonna be everything must go. Yeah, the darry Bird Show
- 16:13Speaker 3: is also gonna find its way out there because he
- 16:15Speaker 3: might be able to get something for him on a
- 16:17Speaker 3: little bit of an affordable contract.
- 16:19Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:19Speaker 2: So it's like if they're gonna if you honest moves on,
- 16:22Speaker 2: it's tear it down to the studs time, and then
- 16:24Speaker 2: who's the coach?
- 16:25Speaker 1: We don't know.
- 16:26Speaker 3: I I uncomfortably had Darvin Ham the guy.
- 16:30Speaker 1: Is Darvin Ham gonna get a look?
- 16:31Speaker 3: I don't think he's going to. I would wonder if
- 16:34Speaker 3: they would go with somebody younger. But like Darvin Ham
- 16:36Speaker 3: had one chance. It wasn't like he was an object
- 16:40Speaker 3: failure in la at all. He just didn't mesh with
- 16:42Speaker 3: Lebron at the end of the day. I guess I
- 16:45Speaker 3: think you do a lot worse than Darvin Ham. I
- 16:47Speaker 3: wouldn't be surprised if they tried to go completely off
- 16:51Speaker 3: the off the radar and in full new blood. But
- 16:54Speaker 3: I think that might be a telltale sign, Drew if
- 16:56Speaker 3: Doc still has some you know, fingerprints on what's happening
- 17:01Speaker 3: once he heads off.
- 17:02Speaker 1: If Darvin Ham gets does John Horst get to shepherd
- 17:05Speaker 1: this to continue in his role.
- 17:07Speaker 2: They signed him to an extension, so I'd think so, right,
- 17:10Speaker 2: Like you think you would seem to trust him and
- 17:12Speaker 2: he you.
- 17:12Speaker 1: Know, I wouldn't.
- 17:13Speaker 3: I wouldn't expect them to sign him to the extension
- 17:16Speaker 3: if they thought that he was going to be on
- 17:17Speaker 3: the hot seat.
- 17:18Speaker 2: But do you get fired their time you missed the playoffs?
- 17:20Speaker 2: It's been ten years that they made the playoffs in
- 17:22Speaker 2: a row.
- 17:22Speaker 3: And yeah, that's a hell of a standard to put
- 17:24Speaker 3: yourself on, but it would be I think I've seen
- 17:28Speaker 3: a lot crazier things than John Horst going somewhere else.
- 17:30Speaker 3: I also thought he was going to go take the
- 17:32Speaker 3: Detroit job a couple of years ago, right like, it
- 17:34Speaker 3: felt like he was maybe gonna leave at certain points.
- 17:38Speaker 3: Never did, and.
- 17:40Speaker 1: Some of those other places have had a success when.
- 17:42Speaker 2: He wasn't get a gig somewhere else. I think so
- 17:44Speaker 2: he would get one, no doubt about it.
- 17:46Speaker 3: I'm the the other part of it, And you start
- 17:48Speaker 3: looking at they were just playing some highlights of Charlotte,
- 17:51Speaker 3: who are like one of the most exciting teams in
- 17:52Speaker 3: the league.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Charles Lee was on a Bucks bench.
- 17:55Speaker 3: Like you started seeing a lot of guys leave as
- 17:58Speaker 3: assistants for the bucks and have some success. Taylor Jenkins
- 18:01Speaker 3: had some decent success in Memphis before it blew up.
- 18:04Speaker 1: Well, he's the name that's come up.
- 18:05Speaker 2: With situation, has been here before, and he's you know
- 18:09Speaker 2: how comfortable is it would John Horsset make the call
- 18:12Speaker 2: Haslams and Edens that would make call him The next
- 18:14Speaker 2: coach is Doc Rivers Like he talks about retiring. If
- 18:17Speaker 2: they're going to pay him a year, does he walk
- 18:20Speaker 2: away from the salary for a year or do does
- 18:22Speaker 2: he make them fire him?
- 18:22Speaker 1: Or does he say I'll be a consultant, then just
- 18:25Speaker 1: pay me. That's where I wanted to pay any reduced.
- 18:27Speaker 3: And if he's doing that, that's where Darvin Ham quickly
- 18:30Speaker 3: becomes the front runner.
- 18:31Speaker 2: I think for the job very well. Could be all
- 18:33Speaker 2: interesting stuff that lies ahead. When we come back, we
- 18:35Speaker 2: will hit upon our Superhero to day, presented by Current Electric.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Uh they are the superheroes in the industry. Call Current
- 18:43Speaker 2: dot Com. We'll have our Superhero of the day. We're

- 19:39Speaker 3: Because this weekend, as the Admirals on Sunday three o'clock
- 19:43Speaker 3: face off at Panther Arena, the historic UW Milwaukee Panther Arena,
- 19:47Speaker 3: we're going to see some consultations with Aurora Healthcare proud

- 20:26Speaker 3: well done. Mendous, tremendous deal that you guys are able
- 20:29Speaker 3: to do coming up on Sunday, and I know it's
- 20:31Speaker 3: got to be near and dear to your heart.
- 20:33Speaker 5: One hundred percent and grateful for the people at Aurora
- 20:37Speaker 5: Healthcare who that only helped me, they made my cancer
- 20:44Speaker 5: journey last summer is positive as it could possibly be.
- 20:49Speaker 5: And my mission has been to really push for people
- 20:54Speaker 5: to get their annual physicals, get tested, you know, do
- 20:56Speaker 5: the things they need to do to make sure they're
- 20:59Speaker 5: being healthy. And we need them in our seats. You know,
- 21:01Speaker 5: we want people to be with us, so make sure
- 21:05Speaker 5: you're getting tested for whatever it needs to be tested for,
- 21:08Speaker 5: and with summer coming up, we thought skin cancer was
- 21:11Speaker 5: the right thing to do for now. So yes, skin
- 21:15Speaker 5: cancer tests and consultations and conversations with auroral physicians available
- 21:21Speaker 5: on Sunday from the time the doors open through the
- 21:23Speaker 5: first intermission. So please, if you're at com into the game,
- 21:26Speaker 5: please take advantage of that.
- 21:29Speaker 3: Skincare is a genius one drew because there was a
- 21:31Speaker 3: time not too far away where you actually had like
- 21:34Speaker 3: oil that would be different. To make it even more
- 21:39Speaker 3: that we did use much different knowing and knowledge that
- 21:42Speaker 3: we have nowadays completely.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Not only that on Saturday.
- 21:45Speaker 2: On Saturday, you got the double header, Greeny the Battle
- 21:48Speaker 2: of the Badges.
- 21:48Speaker 1: I know that's one of your favorite days of the
- 21:50Speaker 1: year too.
- 21:52Speaker 5: It's actually going to be a triple header. We've got
- 21:54Speaker 5: to Battle of the Badges games have got so many
- 21:56Speaker 5: people who want to play in those games that years
- 22:00Speaker 5: ago we turned it into what they call it a
- 22:03Speaker 5: game at a b game. But if you watch them,
- 22:06Speaker 5: they don't treat them that way, that's for sure. So
- 22:08Speaker 5: it's starting at twelve thirty and then followed it at
- 22:12Speaker 5: two o'clock. You can see those two games, ultra competitive
- 22:16Speaker 5: hockey games between local law enforcement and local fire safety,
- 22:19Speaker 5: and your ticket to the Admirals game gets in for
- 22:23Speaker 5: all of that, So you know, you don't necessarily have
- 22:25Speaker 5: to come for those, but if you want to, you
- 22:28Speaker 5: know there will be a couple thousand people that are
- 22:30Speaker 5: going to show up for police fires. So those are
- 22:31Speaker 5: always a lot of fun.
- 22:32Speaker 3: Well, and the nice thing is it's almost like an
- 22:34Speaker 3: overcrowd Greeny because then everybody cheering for goals. Now, all
- 22:37Speaker 3: due respect to the defensemen that are on the ice
- 22:40Speaker 3: playing for the police and the fire, but nobody wants
- 22:42Speaker 3: to see anybody not be scoring, right. That's got to
- 22:45Speaker 3: be the most positive crowd you're seeing.
- 22:49Speaker 5: Well, I will say that there is serious competition between
- 22:52Speaker 5: those two teams. I hope it doesn't turn into New
- 22:55Speaker 5: York excuse me, New York Fire versus New York Police,
- 22:59Speaker 5: because what turned into a melee. But we don't want
- 23:02Speaker 5: that to happen. We would thank this. Let's have some
- 23:04Speaker 5: competitive hockey games. But you know there's a trophy involved
- 23:08Speaker 5: here if they want to win. So they've been practicing
- 23:10Speaker 5: for months and this is something we've been hosting here
- 23:13Speaker 5: at the Panther Rena before that the Bradley Center for
- 23:16Speaker 5: many many years, and it's a great community event. I mean, Drew,
- 23:19Speaker 5: I'm sure you can remember going to County Stadium to
- 23:22Speaker 5: watch the police fire baseball games in the summertime. So
- 23:26Speaker 5: those those are big deals and we're doing We're happy
- 23:30Speaker 5: to do it with hockey.
- 23:31Speaker 2: I love the rivalry as my father was in law
- 23:35Speaker 2: enforcement and longtime policeman in men Nominee Falls, and it
- 23:38Speaker 2: was like, the fire guys are hurling. I why don't
- 23:40Speaker 2: you guys go get a dozen donuts and then you know,
- 23:43Speaker 2: what do you guys do? Sit around the house and
- 23:44Speaker 2: lift weights and make chili and watch TV.
- 23:47Speaker 1: Yeah, cookies.
- 23:49Speaker 2: They get after each other in a good spirited ways.
- 23:53Speaker 2: It is a lot of fun. Greeny, It's hockey night
- 23:56Speaker 2: in Manitoba again and you guys looking to even the score.
- 23:59Speaker 2: It seemed like last game you just ran out of
- 24:02Speaker 2: time in terms of the comeback.
- 24:05Speaker 5: Yeah, we'd have played another minute or two. I think
- 24:07Speaker 5: we would have tied that game. And you know, it's
- 24:09Speaker 5: a terrible, terrible start, obviously giving up two goals in
- 24:13Speaker 5: the first minute and a half and playing out of
- 24:16Speaker 5: a four to nothing hole, until you know, we finally
- 24:19Speaker 5: got it cranked up, but we need to find a
- 24:21Speaker 5: way tonight to get two points and get back home
- 24:24Speaker 5: here and get that magic number and cranked down to
- 24:28Speaker 5: zero because we want to get that playoff spot secured
- 24:31Speaker 5: and get ready to keep playing well.
- 24:33Speaker 3: And that's one of the toughest parts because obviously, in
- 24:36Speaker 3: still some still somewhat of chase mode, would love to
- 24:39Speaker 3: be able to get to that fourth spot.
- 24:41Speaker 1: But is it.
- 24:42Speaker 3: It's got to be a difficult waiting game and a
- 24:44Speaker 3: difficult balancing act for the coaching seven.
- 24:46Speaker 1: You guys got so hot, but then to be able
- 24:48Speaker 1: to keep some.
- 24:49Speaker 3: Of that momentum rolling even though there's there's always going
- 24:53Speaker 3: to be the eye towards the playoffs. It's it's got
- 24:56Speaker 3: to be difficult to keep that pedal down to the
- 24:58Speaker 3: floorboard when you know the most important hockey still is
- 25:01Speaker 3: potentially a week and a half away from you.
- 25:05Speaker 5: It is, it is, but until you get that x
- 25:07Speaker 5: dex to your name, you know you're you're not there yet.
- 25:09Speaker 5: And you know, our our affiliate up in Nashville, they're
- 25:14Speaker 5: on the same same place. So they're the last team
- 25:17Speaker 5: into the playoffs this morning, and they've they've got five,
- 25:22Speaker 5: five or six of our guys right now. So our
- 25:25Speaker 5: guys are doing the best best they can to kind
- 25:28Speaker 5: of keep going here, and you know, they're watching some
- 25:31Speaker 5: young players start to pick things up. Has been kind
- 25:34Speaker 5: of fun to watch a guy like Aiden Fink, who
- 25:37Speaker 5: just came from Penn State last week is for our
- 25:40Speaker 5: second professional Gabe had for assists class that he had
- 25:42Speaker 5: his first goal. So seeing some of these young guys
- 25:45Speaker 5: be able to, you know, start showing what they're capable
- 25:47Speaker 5: of doing, it's it's kind of fun to watch. So
- 25:50Speaker 5: eventually this will all get itself sorted out, but we
- 25:53Speaker 5: would like to get that x dex to our name,
- 25:56Speaker 5: hopefully this weekend in front of our own fans.
- 25:58Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be spectacular.
- 26:00Speaker 2: You play in Chicago on Saturday evening and then Iowa
- 26:03Speaker 2: on Sunday afternoon. And we didn't even mention that Saturday
- 26:06Speaker 2: as your second dog day of the season.
- 26:10Speaker 5: Yeah, dog day, So bring your dog to the game.
- 26:13Speaker 5: Your dog ticket is five dollars. It's general admission for
- 26:16Speaker 5: the dogs and their owners up on the four hundred level.
- 26:19Speaker 5: So you know, we've been doing this for a long
- 26:21Speaker 5: time too. Dogs dog owners really appreciate the afportunity to
- 26:25Speaker 5: bring their best friend of the game, and it's a
- 26:30Speaker 5: lot of fun. And also on Saturday night, as you're
- 26:32Speaker 5: leaving the buildings starting in the third period, we've got
- 26:35Speaker 5: seventy five hundred Summer Fest tickets to give out, so
- 26:40Speaker 5: it's a great opportunity. It's literally white Waterhouse can. I
- 26:45Speaker 5: were discussing this yesterday. It's also a Harley Davidson Ticket
- 26:48Speaker 5: Package day, so you could you could get the Harley
- 26:51Speaker 5: Davidson ticket package, which gets you the ticket to the
- 26:53Speaker 5: Avros game of ticket to the Harley Museum for twenty
- 26:56Speaker 5: five bucks, and get a ticket to Summerfest on your
- 26:59Speaker 5: way out. I mean, that seems like a pretty good investment.
- 27:01Speaker 1: Pretty good.
- 27:02Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not gonna get much better, and it's gonna
- 27:04Speaker 3: be hard to be able to top that. However, it
- 27:06Speaker 3: also potentially gets top when you realize that it's Roscoe's birthday. Like,
- 27:11Speaker 3: out of the celebrations that happened throughout the year, Greenie,
- 27:14Speaker 3: this one might be the most festive, the most celebratory,
- 27:17Speaker 3: and definitely one of the loudest. Coming up on Saturday
- 27:20Speaker 3: around Sunday. I mean for the three o'clock face off,
- 27:22Speaker 3: but Roscoe knows how to throw a party, and when
- 27:24Speaker 3: he's throwing a party for himself, you know it's gonna be.
- 27:29Speaker 5: Yeah. So it'll be Roscoe's birthday and Sunday a lot
- 27:32Speaker 5: of his friends are coming kind of you know, a
- 27:36Speaker 5: fun start time with three o'clock that day, so for families,
- 27:40Speaker 5: a good chance to come out. And if you've been
- 27:42Speaker 5: on Easter break, I know that'll be the end of it.
- 27:45Speaker 5: So we'll get you home at a reasonable time. You
- 27:47Speaker 5: can bring bring your skates as well, so we'll have
- 27:51Speaker 5: a postgame skate on Sunday after the game, but you
- 27:55Speaker 5: need to bring your own skates for that.
- 27:57Speaker 2: You're packing a lot of stuff in John Greeb, President,
- 27:59Speaker 2: the Admirals joined here, packing a lot of stuff into
- 28:01Speaker 2: these last few home games. But the results on the
- 28:04Speaker 2: ice are what matters the most at this juncture. You
- 28:07Speaker 2: mentioned you and Nashville both driving to make the playoffs
- 28:10Speaker 2: and to secure your spot and just get in the
- 28:12Speaker 2: dance and take your chances. Right, it's a little bit
- 28:15Speaker 2: of a different setup for you guys than in recent years.
- 28:19Speaker 2: But hey, there's no there's nothing written that says you can't,
- 28:23Speaker 2: you know, forge a path and make a deep run
- 28:25Speaker 2: going in the way that you'll go in this year.
- 28:28Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely. I mean I think in the NHL there
- 28:31Speaker 5: have been eight seeds of them advanced all the way
- 28:34Speaker 5: to the Stanley Cup Final. In our league, you know,
- 28:36Speaker 5: you just want to get in if you want to
- 28:39Speaker 5: put be able to play those extra games. And while
- 28:43Speaker 5: the format would may be a little bit different by
- 28:45Speaker 5: being the four or five series, which we were probably
- 28:48Speaker 5: certainly is looking like we're going to be in. That's
- 28:51Speaker 5: the best of three just to get started, So not
- 28:55Speaker 5: a whole lot of margin for error when you get
- 28:56Speaker 5: to that point, but you know, you just want to
- 28:58Speaker 5: get in the show and see what happens.
- 29:00Speaker 3: Is there a little bit of pressure to hold on
- 29:02Speaker 3: to the state of hockey moniker that we're stealing from
- 29:04Speaker 3: Minnesota Greenee After the Badger women go and win the
- 29:08Speaker 3: national title, Badgers into the Frozen Four tomorrow, Like, I
- 29:12Speaker 3: just feel like we're stealing that moniker from Minnesota.
- 29:15Speaker 1: So is the heat kind of on?
- 29:19Speaker 5: Oh well, I think we would be happy to own
- 29:22Speaker 5: that for sure. I mean it's you know, the hockey
- 29:26Speaker 5: has certainly grown here in our state, but to be
- 29:28Speaker 5: able to have national championships and potentially a Calder Cup
- 29:31Speaker 5: would be certainly a cheeriot top go question.
- 29:35Speaker 3: We talked about the growth of the game and the
- 29:37Speaker 3: amount of youth programs that have continued to flare up.
- 29:40Speaker 3: And obviously this is a hockey year after the gold
- 29:44Speaker 3: medal team wins and all of the excitement around the sport,
- 29:47Speaker 3: and the playoffs are always even better. But what about
- 29:50Speaker 3: the players coming in from the college game. We had
- 29:53Speaker 3: coach Hastings on last week Greenie and being able to
- 29:56Speaker 3: talk about the caliber of player that's coming out you
- 29:59Speaker 3: mentioned coming in right out of Penn State. How much
- 30:02Speaker 3: more prepared to play at your level and the next
- 30:04Speaker 3: level are gives coming out of college programs because it
- 30:08Speaker 3: feels like that hockey is continually getting better.
- 30:11Speaker 5: Oh, there's no question, and I think the rule changes now.
- 30:14Speaker 5: What's allowing Canadian junior players to play in college here
- 30:20Speaker 5: is you know, it's a little bit of in the
- 30:21Speaker 5: weeds kind of stuff, but that definitely elevates the game,
- 30:26Speaker 5: you know, of college hockey. And yes, they're more polished
- 30:29Speaker 5: when they get to the American League, in which means
- 30:32Speaker 5: they're gonna be more polished when they get to the NHL.
- 30:34Speaker 5: So you're getting guys that are maybe a little bit
- 30:37Speaker 5: more mature than they've been in the past, but they're
- 30:41Speaker 5: definitely skilled hockey players coming from the college rank style
- 30:45Speaker 5: that will hopefully make an impact in our league and beyond.
- 30:49Speaker 2: I got to get back to Roscoe celebrating his birthday
- 30:53Speaker 2: when the When the offseason rolls around, it's not unusual
- 30:56Speaker 2: see Roscoe at parades and community events, and I've heard

- 35:27Speaker 3: you can do. But the folks that unveiled last night
- 35:30Speaker 3: for the Utah Mammoth, the Zamoth Zamboni, I don't know
- 35:35Speaker 3: if you got a gun win of this bad boy, Drew.
- 35:38Speaker 3: You had to have been waken and bacon to design
- 35:40Speaker 3: this bad boy straight off of Minecraft.
- 35:43Speaker 1: Whoa coolest zamboni ever made?
- 35:46Speaker 3: That is spectacular of a full mammoth rolling around the
- 35:50Speaker 3: ice looks like the coolest four wheeler you've ever seen.
- 35:53Speaker 1: Full tusks up because tusks are up.
- 35:56Speaker 5: Uh.
- 35:56Speaker 3: They gave a video with some Wheet Milwaukee tool shoutouts
- 36:02Speaker 3: in here of them designing the Zamoth. It is built
- 36:09Speaker 3: from the Zamboni that was used during the two thousand
- 36:12Speaker 3: and two Salt Lake Winter Olympic Games. Reimagined, redesigned, repurposed,
- 36:18Speaker 3: and now you have the twenty twenty six Zamoth rolling
- 36:22Speaker 3: through Utah Mammoth Games. Outstanding, crazy, crazy invention, only topped
- 36:28Speaker 3: and could only be topped by what they're calling the tusk,
- 36:32Speaker 3: which is a beer that you can purchase out of.
- 36:35Speaker 3: We've seen souvenir cups before. Yeah, have you seen a
- 36:38Speaker 3: souvenir beer mug like that with a full tusk?
- 36:42Speaker 1: Looks like the old schools boot.
- 36:45Speaker 3: Instead, it's just a horn with a nice bank right there,
- 36:48Speaker 3: twenty six dollars that you can buy there at the
- 36:50Speaker 3: Delta Center for and people were saying they're real and
- 36:54Speaker 3: they're spectacular. People are big, big fans. Vikings should steal
- 36:57Speaker 3: that horn. Tusk thing looks like a Viking horn. They've
- 37:00Speaker 3: stolen everything else. They stole the skull chant from that
- 37:03Speaker 3: Norwegian soccer team, so you might as well do something like.
- 37:05Speaker 1: Well, they can't.
- 37:06Speaker 4: They still can't steal a Lombardi Trophy. So that's true.
- 37:09Speaker 4: They nice word, well done, very true. No, they've tried,
- 37:14Speaker 4: They're they're they're trying. They've done everything they can. They've
- 37:17Speaker 4: stolen enough former Green Bay Packers to try to chase it. Yeah,
- 37:20Speaker 4: God knows. It is interesting when you think about everybody's like, oh,
- 37:23Speaker 4: that's you know, the NFC North, look at this division stuff,
- 37:26Speaker 4: and then you've come around to, oh, there's two teams
- 37:28Speaker 4: that haven't won a super Bowl in the NFC North.
- 37:31Speaker 3: It's a hilarious thing. And when you start seeing just
- 37:34Speaker 3: how dominating the Packers have been over the North. Now,
- 37:38Speaker 3: it hasn't been over the last five years because they
- 37:39Speaker 3: haven't won a title, a division title since twenty twenty one,
- 37:43Speaker 3: but that is, uh, there's there's levels to the competitiveness
- 37:46Speaker 3: of that the different organizations have seen. I'm really intrigued
- 37:51Speaker 3: as to what the Lions have cooking up this offseason.
- 37:54Speaker 3: Don't they feel like they went from America's team to
- 37:58Speaker 3: the same old Lions just kind of forgotten about, back
- 38:01Speaker 3: buried by the tires and strip club ads that you
- 38:03Speaker 3: see here. Towards the back end, everyone talking about the Vikings,
- 38:06Speaker 3: obviously the Bears taking center stage, Packers lowasv conversation.
- 38:10Speaker 1: There's just the Lions. They were the flavor of the month.
- 38:13Speaker 3: And now back to Detroit and back to living in
- 38:18Speaker 3: somewhat of NFL Siberia unless they're able to change things
- 38:20Speaker 3: up there.
- 38:21Speaker 1: Not this year, which you never know.
- 38:23Speaker 3: Which you never know, never know. Hot take Humpty dride
- 38:25Speaker 3: one final one before we got out of here. Hot
- 38:27Speaker 3: take Fernando Mendoza. Great decision, great decision. As he is
- 38:33Speaker 3: the consensus number one overall pick, he has decided to
- 38:37Speaker 3: inform the NFL that he is going to stay in
- 38:39Speaker 3: Miami instead of going to Pittsburgh and celebrating as the
- 38:43Speaker 3: number one overall pick on the stage. Now there's only
- 38:45Speaker 3: what twenty six thirty guys that probably have the ability
- 38:49Speaker 3: to get asked if they want to.
- 38:51Speaker 1: But Mendoza was so steadfast.
- 38:54Speaker 3: And it was maybe the biggest calling card to people's
- 38:57Speaker 3: love and affection and admiration for him towards the the
- 39:00Speaker 3: run up to the title was being with his family,
- 39:03Speaker 3: the extended family. Gonna be a lot easier to be
- 39:06Speaker 3: with his family, with his mother in Miami. I'm all
- 39:09Speaker 3: four guys telling the NFL. I appreciate your circus. I
- 39:14Speaker 3: appreciate your celebration, but this is my celebration, so I'm
- 39:18Speaker 3: gonna celebrate it how I want to, Joe Thomas style.
- 39:22Speaker 1: You can have a nice suit.
- 39:24Speaker 3: Instead, I'm going to be in shorts, hanging out on
- 39:25Speaker 3: the beach and I'm gonna be celebrating with my friends
- 39:27Speaker 3: in Miami.
- 39:28Speaker 1: That's epic. Yeah, I'm with you on that.
- 39:30Speaker 3: Like it's a great, great for all those that are
- 39:33Speaker 3: allowed to. But if I'm gonna be the number one
- 39:34Speaker 3: overall pick you know what, I don't want to be
- 39:37Speaker 3: sitting on icy light instead. I want to be fifteen
- 39:39Speaker 3: minutes from South Beach. And Mendoz has got to be
- 39:44Speaker 3: training himself for his list.
- 39:46Speaker 1: In the living room though you know it.
- 39:48Speaker 3: All over the place, all over the place. He's going
- 39:50Speaker 3: to get off that Diana Rossini might be their live
- 39:53Speaker 3: might be might be.
- 39:54Speaker 2: Thanks to John Greenberg for hanging out with us, thanks
- 39:56Speaker 2: to Dolph as well. We are halfway through the week
- 39:59Speaker 2: without armand Dave Gasper. Still I don't want to talk

- 40:03Speaker 2: pitching a pretty solid game.
- 40:05Speaker 1: And has not been.
- 40:06Speaker 3: He's doing yeoman's work being here on four hours sleep,
- 40:09Speaker 3: because this is a different adjustment.
