  Speaker 7: Never, it stays the perfect temperature.
• 3:23
  Speaker 8: That's a super Bowl bath if I've ever heard one.
• 3:25
  Speaker 8: The truth, you weren't here early enough to see what
• 3:28
  Speaker 8: Bucky and I saw.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Have you seen unitron?
• 3:30
  Speaker 7: I don't even know what that means.
• 3:31
  Speaker 8: There's a guy and I've seen him before, but today
• 3:35
  Speaker 8: we got like full view of it. There's a guy
• 3:37
  Speaker 8: that rode his it's not a unicycle, it's like a.
• 3:41
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I've seen that before. I've seen that guy before.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: So he comes in, Oh, he works in this building.
• 3:48
  Speaker 8: Apparently he's got his own closet that he gets to
• 3:51
  Speaker 8: put his Unibaby.
• 3:53
  Speaker 9: I didn't know he worked here. I've just seen him
• 3:55
  Speaker 9: outside our building, no garage.
• 3:58
  Speaker 8: Yeah, so he went to his own little like closet area,
• 4:02
  Speaker 8: like little cage area, and he had a key for
• 4:04
  Speaker 8: it and everything else. But man, I have never I
• 4:08
  Speaker 8: used to say this about Charlie Weiss. I've never seen
• 4:11
  Speaker 8: anyone more committed to wearing a belt than Charlie Weiss.
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: He was very committed. Well, he needed it, very committed.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure how good it did. It seemed to
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: be still always pulling up his pants. But I've never
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: seen anyone more committed to being seen.
• 4:25
  Speaker 8: At night than this individual. Oh he had a long
• 4:30
  Speaker 8: trench coat made of like that yellow firement firefighter the
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: material reflective material. Then he had patches on there that
• 4:39
  Speaker 8: were even more reflective and they were like shimmery. Then
• 4:43
  Speaker 8: he had a Tron backpack which was this like Neon
• 4:47
  Speaker 8: red light that went on his backpack.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Then he had a helmet that had pieces of it
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: that glowed.
• 4:54
  Speaker 8: He had a glowing neck thing around his neck, and
• 4:58
  Speaker 8: then he had.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Like f lights on the helmet.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Oho.
• 5:03
  Speaker 8: So I've never ever seen anyone more committed to not
• 5:08
  Speaker 8: getting hit while going to work, and yet he drives
• 5:13
  Speaker 8: a unicycle to work.
• 5:14
  Speaker 7: Right, and there's always a chance he'll get hit.
• 5:18
  Speaker 8: So I mean, here's an idea. Maybe have something that
• 5:21
  Speaker 8: protects you better and then you can just wear normal
• 5:24
  Speaker 8: clothes to work.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, he's saving on gas.
• 5:27
  Speaker 8: I suppose I think you spent more money on your
• 5:31
  Speaker 8: outfit getting a specially made going to say firefighter trench
• 5:34
  Speaker 8: coat than you did on a car would.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Protect you better. Well, I'll say this.
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: They do say that stress is one of the biggest
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: killers and it'll shorten your life. And he's pretty stressed out
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: about his his commute.
• 5:47
  Speaker 8: He looks like he is, But I think it's more
• 5:49
  Speaker 8: of I look really cool in this. I think that's
• 5:53
  Speaker 8: that's what captures that he really thinks he's futuristic. That's
• 5:57
  Speaker 8: why I told you to close the doors. I don't
• 5:59
  Speaker 8: want him to you even come in here. I think
• 6:01
  Speaker 8: he might be carrying a lightsaber. Yeah, and I don't
• 6:03
  Speaker 8: have the necessary equipment to defend myself against the lightber.
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: You nailed it when you said tron unicycle guy or whatever.
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: Because he glows like he wants to be in the
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: movie Tron. Uh huh, you might pull out one of
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: them little the glowing disc things and throw it at us. So, yeah,
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: I closed the door o their door. He can he
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: can get get in elevator by himself.
• 6:23
  Speaker 8: I would think you could float to your office with
• 6:26
  Speaker 8: that out for imagine. Yeah, yeah, not to mention, what
• 6:29
  Speaker 8: if we don't see you coming right? Even use that
• 6:32
  Speaker 8: an excuse. Why didn't you hold the door for me?
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Well, we didn't see you. I didn't see it.
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: I mean you could all your laser beams and your
• 6:41
  Speaker 8: neon lights and your giant Darth Vader helmet that you're wearing.
• 6:46
  Speaker 7: He's got like an entire light shower.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: He's putting on a.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Nerd a tron. That's that's who we were into.
• 6:55
  Speaker 9: Are excused for closing the door, though, because you don't know.
• 6:58
  Speaker 9: You could have just said I'm sorry, we didn't know
• 7:00
  Speaker 9: what was happening.
• 7:01
  Speaker 8: I did not know what was happening. Obviously he works here.
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: He wouldn't have an office, you wouldn't have a key
• 7:06
  Speaker 8: cage a key. He obviously has something. But I wasn't
• 7:10
  Speaker 8: going to stick around and find out look like a
• 7:12
  Speaker 8: weirdo to.
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: Me science in the morning.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I'm going to avoid kind of hope. But somebody that
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: does traffic or something floor.
• 7:21
  Speaker 9: I bet he works on one of his science floors though,
• 7:23
  Speaker 9: because there's they're different.
• 7:25
  Speaker 8: I Ope, be somebody that's on this floor, because I
• 7:27
  Speaker 8: want to see who dresses like that?
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Would bender?
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: Would you wreck hilarious?
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: That would be glowing unicycle in here today?
• 7:37
  Speaker 7: Would you? Would you recognize him if he didn't have
• 7:41
  Speaker 7: all his glowing? Yeah, that's the one. What if you
• 7:45
  Speaker 7: see him every day and you have no idea that
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: that's glow?
• 7:48
  Speaker 9: Tron never allow that, Jenny would never allow.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: He did get a pay raise, maybe gonna afford that outfit.
• 7:59
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I got rid of his car cost a mint.
• 8:02
  Speaker 7: I'll tell you that much, right, jumped up to the unicycle.
• 8:05
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 8:05
  Speaker 8: When you turn into tron Boy overnight, well, good morning
• 8:09
  Speaker 8: to you. Welcome into the radio program. It is Ashley Ryan,
• 8:12
  Speaker 8: former Mariner, Bucky Jacobson. My name is Chuck Powell. Will
• 8:15
  Speaker 8: try to track down the whereabouts of tron Boy for
• 8:19
  Speaker 8: you and get that information. I know a lot of
• 8:21
  Speaker 8: you are now on the edge of your seat about it,
• 8:24
  Speaker 8: but we've got a lot of things to discuss today.
• 8:27
  Speaker 8: Certainly we will continue talking Seahawks football and counting you
• 8:30
  Speaker 8: down to the Super Bowl. But there's a different football
• 8:33
  Speaker 8: topic that became front and center yesterday. It has the
• 8:36
  Speaker 8: entire sports world up in arms, the entire football community
• 8:40
  Speaker 8: up in arms. It was announced yesterday that Bill Belichick,
• 8:44
  Speaker 8: no doubt the most accomplished and decorated coach in the
• 8:48
  Speaker 8: history of the National Football League. I mean, you can
• 8:50
  Speaker 8: still hold out your arguments for Vince Lombardi and Don
• 8:53
  Speaker 8: Shula and whoever else you want to throw into the
• 8:56
  Speaker 8: conversation as best coach in the history of the NFL,
• 9:00
  Speaker 8: but the most decorated coach in the NFL's history, and
• 9:04
  Speaker 8: maybe GM as well, is Bill Belichick. And yet on
• 9:07
  Speaker 8: the first opportunity that he had to be voted into
• 9:11
  Speaker 8: the Hall of Fame, the Committee of fifty decided he
• 9:15
  Speaker 8: was not worthy, or more likely, they decided to punish
• 9:20
  Speaker 8: him for acts of scandal in his past Spygate, deflate Gate,
• 9:29
  Speaker 8: other situations. I mean, he had a reputation for doing
• 9:32
  Speaker 8: more than that, I'm sure within NFL circles, but a
• 9:36
  Speaker 8: few members of the voting committee took it upon themselves
• 9:39
  Speaker 8: to hand out their own brand of justice throughout this process,
• 9:44
  Speaker 8: and the most decorated head coach in NFL history and
• 9:47
  Speaker 8: football history really is not going to get into the
• 9:50
  Speaker 8: Hall of Fame on the first ballot. I mean, he's
• 9:52
  Speaker 8: certainly going to get there eventually, and after this outcry,
• 9:55
  Speaker 8: they might even make a special case for him to
• 9:58
  Speaker 8: try to usher him for to Canton this year. But
• 10:02
  Speaker 8: certainly the football world was shocked yesterday and it became
• 10:06
  Speaker 8: the dominant topic of conversation.
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: Well, I just when I heard, I was like, what
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: that's And then immediately you go to Spygate and deflate
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: Gate and think, well, that's got to be it, because
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: you can't. It can't be based on just the football.
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: The accolades are that come along with how long he
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: was there, the fact that he was part of that
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: dynasty and he helped create that dynasty. The argument of
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: was it him or Tom Brady obviously was an argument
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: that was brewing at the end of their tenure together,
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: and then it looked as if it was more tom Brady,
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: the way in which when they separated, New England went
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: downhill and Tom Brady went and won another Super Bowl.
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: But I mean the idea of taking a team to
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: nine Super Bowls in eighteen years and went in six
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: Super Bowls, you just think automatically, yeah, it's Hall of Famer.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: I think everybody assumed that was happening.
• 10:55
  Speaker 8: Even in our homegrin conversation, we were like, well, he's
• 10:57
  Speaker 8: not getting in next year because Belichick.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Belichick's obviously going to get in next year.
• 11:02
  Speaker 8: So yeah, I think everybody just assumed that was going
• 11:05
  Speaker 8: to happen, and.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Thus the story that's the outrage.
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well maybe, I mean, if that's what it takes
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: in order for them to pull their heads out and
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: get home grin end, fine, I'll go ahead and take it.
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: I mean, there's the huge outcry of this. It's insane,
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: and you know, I don't understand. I don't really understand it.
• 11:21
  Speaker 11: Now.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: It is one of those you know.
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: It's humans voting for humans, and so sometimes they will
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: have a bone to pick, whether it's legitimate, like you know, hey,
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: you did cheat. There's notice that spygate was for sure
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: you the Flategate may be not so much you who knows,
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: but there probably was other things that you know. I
• 11:41
  Speaker 6: don't think the NFL is trying to come out and
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: throw one of their biggest stars as far as the
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: coach goes under the bus. So I wouldn't be surprised
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: if multiple coaches have had other things that they're kind
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: of get swept on. Hey, don't stop doing that. We
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: know what you're doing. Stop doing that. But certain things
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: you can't help but end up throwing that out there
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: once a public gets word of it. So, I mean,
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: it's crazy to me that he wouldn't get in in
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: the first I mean, he's just like you said, he's
• 12:07
  Speaker 6: the most decorated coach in the history of the game.
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: So you would think that's automatically a first ballot Hall
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: of Fame. But yeah, they're wanting to pick a boner
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: or said an example of that cheating isn't accepted.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Fine.
• 12:20
  Speaker 9: I think that's the interesting thing though, is if you've
• 12:22
  Speaker 9: decided that he cheated and he can't get in this year,
• 12:27
  Speaker 9: or he cheated and you don't want him in, then
• 12:30
  Speaker 9: then he shouldn't get in because he cheated. If that's
• 12:32
  Speaker 9: your decision, it's not well, he cheated, so we just
• 12:34
  Speaker 9: don't want to get him in on his first ballot,
• 12:36
  Speaker 9: Like you either want him in there or you don't
• 12:39
  Speaker 9: want him in there. It's similar, I mean, same thing
• 12:41
  Speaker 9: that you say that. Pete Rose always said you're either
• 12:43
  Speaker 9: a Hall of Famer or you're not a Hall of Famer.
• 12:44
  Speaker 9: So he either cheated and you don't want him in,
• 12:48
  Speaker 9: or he's a Hall of Famer one or the other.
• 12:50
  Speaker 8: Well, and I guess the reasoning behind it, or at
• 12:53
  Speaker 8: least what we're led to believe by Seth Wickersham and
• 12:55
  Speaker 8: some of the rumors who wrote the story and some
• 12:57
  Speaker 8: of the rumors that are out there, is that this
• 13:00
  Speaker 8: was their punishment for all of the cheating. Yeah, you're
• 13:03
  Speaker 8: gonna get in. We all know you're gonna get in.
• 13:05
  Speaker 8: We're all eventually going to vote for you, but we
• 13:08
  Speaker 8: do want to make some example of you. So you're
• 13:10
  Speaker 8: going to have to wait a year. You don't get
• 13:12
  Speaker 8: to be considered a first ballot Hall of Famer. And
• 13:15
  Speaker 8: you ask any football player, there is prestige in that. Yeah,
• 13:18
  Speaker 8: it's not just and there's Hall of Famers and then
• 13:21
  Speaker 8: there are first ballot Hall of Famers, and there is
• 13:24
  Speaker 8: a direct line of delineation.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I just I mean to me, you said it.
• 13:29
  Speaker 8: I mean, it's humans voting for humans, and that's the
• 13:32
  Speaker 8: element that comes. And I'm not saying I want AI
• 13:34
  Speaker 8: to vote for it. You know, I want humans voting
• 13:37
  Speaker 8: for humans. But what ends up happening is that everybody
• 13:41
  Speaker 8: tries to make their own rationale for it, and they
• 13:45
  Speaker 8: want their own This is my chance to express my
• 13:49
  Speaker 8: own feelings about a situation, and if you have just
• 13:53
  Speaker 8: a few of them, it can mess up the entire process.
• 13:56
  Speaker 8: And that individual thinks I'm the only one acting this way, probably,
• 14:01
  Speaker 8: and yet you find out at the end of it
• 14:03
  Speaker 8: there are ten or eleven or there is a rumor
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: out there that Bill Pollian was trying to get it
• 14:08
  Speaker 8: across two other voters to think the way I'm thinking,
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: let's punish him for one year. We don't know how
• 14:15
  Speaker 8: many people didn't vote for him. We just know that
• 14:17
  Speaker 8: at least eleven didn't out of the fifty that were
• 14:21
  Speaker 8: able to cast their votes. I do think Pete Rose
• 14:25
  Speaker 8: was right. I think the process needs to be simplified,
• 14:28
  Speaker 8: and you're either a Hall of Famer or you're not,
• 14:32
  Speaker 8: and we'll go ahead and people that came within percentages
• 14:36
  Speaker 8: of the vote, they'll get another chance, like five years
• 14:39
  Speaker 8: down the road. Don't put him through this process of
• 14:41
  Speaker 8: every year they have to anguish over this, like Mike
• 14:44
  Speaker 8: Homward's had to anguish over this.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: You are either in or you're not. And I don't
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: care what the limit is.
• 14:49
  Speaker 8: There's not a limit of five guys that get in.
• 14:53
  Speaker 8: You're either a Hall of Famer or you're not. I
• 14:55
  Speaker 8: would change the committee and who got to vote as well,
• 14:58
  Speaker 8: which I'm going to talk about in rec Us at
• 15:00
  Speaker 8: breakfast today. But you get a few people with an
• 15:04
  Speaker 8: acting agenda and the next thing you know.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: You've screwed up the entire process. And then when it
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: comes to Holmgren, it.
• 15:10
  Speaker 8: Does affect him, and it affects him negatively because he
• 15:13
  Speaker 8: didn't get in on the ballot this year because of Belichick.
• 15:17
  Speaker 8: And if they're trying to make an example out of Belichick,
• 15:19
  Speaker 8: guess what Belichick's gonna get in next year.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: He's gonna take coaches spot next year.
• 15:24
  Speaker 8: So now where you're looking at a three year wait
• 15:26
  Speaker 8: probably for Mike Holmgren to get in.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: And so this process of you know what, if Babe
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Ruth didn't get in, nobody gets in on the first ballot. Stupid.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: This process of you know what, I just don't.
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: Think that relief pitchers are valuable enough, all right, It's
• 15:46
  Speaker 8: rarer that relief pitchers get in I'll give you that,
• 15:49
  Speaker 8: but you gotta be kidding you, you're just gonna draw
• 15:51
  Speaker 8: a line in the sand that you're not going to
• 15:53
  Speaker 8: ever vote for a relief pitcher.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: In the Hall of Fame.
• 15:56
  Speaker 8: Things like that, And in the NFL's case, you're trying
• 15:59
  Speaker 8: to hand out your own brand of justice. That's not
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: your job. Vote Hall of Famer or don't vote Hall
• 16:05
  Speaker 8: of Famer. And I think if there was more pressure
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: to your vote could keep him out entirely, then we
• 16:11
  Speaker 8: would see a little bit of a change here to
• 16:15
  Speaker 8: all of this, because I do believe that it is preposterous,
• 16:19
  Speaker 8: and I do believe it's the human element of people
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: creating and crafting their own rules for how justice should
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: be dispensed, which is the problem.
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: Well, I mean you also have to add that he
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: probably wasn't the most liked guy by the media by
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: a lot of people that covered him, just because he
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: was really short, you know, he didn't play the game.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Also should not be used as something for the Hall
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: of Fame.
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: And ultimately an article that I've found yesterday after you know,
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: the uproar about the whole thing, I mean, the guy
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: ended up winning significantly more after Spygate so it's like
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: if you're going to hold it against him because it's
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: like you're a cheater, But then you got to be like, well,
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: did the cheating make him better? Or I mean did
• 17:01
  Speaker 6: he did he fall off after? Did the Astros fall
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: off the face of the planet after they took the
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: garbage can out of their dugout?
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: You know, didn't know? Okay, well yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: Well but no, I'm saying after spike it, after he
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: got caught on it, he his winning percentage went up,
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: and they just you know, they ended up still continuing
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: to be as good as they were prior to it.
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: So it's just, okay, well, how much does that go
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: into it? It's, uh, you know, some guy had you know,
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: five great seasons and he was definitely taking steroids and
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: then they caught him and he hit one fifty for
• 17:34
  Speaker 6: the rest. It's like, you weren't very good without it,
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: and yet that's not the case with Bill Belichick. So
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: to me, it's there's just so many things that go
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: into it, and yet what should go into it is
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: is he deserving as a coach in the Hall of Fame?
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Or no?
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: Yes, you don't have to bring your well I'm going
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: to be I'm going to give my little stroke of
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: justice to this whole thing. Okay, I guess if you
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: feel like that's your place to do it, I guess
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: you get to do it. Mike Sando, who we have
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: on every week, he voted for him, and he said
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: it was a slam dunk. It's not like he didn't
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: know that there was Skygator scandals around it.
• 18:08
  Speaker 8: A lot of people step forth to make sure that
• 18:10
  Speaker 8: they're not lumped in with it. A lot of the
• 18:13
  Speaker 8: voters have separated themselves. You're not supposed to, by the way,
• 18:17
  Speaker 8: but they're so embarrassed by it that they don't. They
• 18:19
  Speaker 8: don't want the hate mail, they don't want people reaching
• 18:22
  Speaker 8: out to them because it's public who votes. And so
• 18:25
  Speaker 8: those some of those are like getting killed on social
• 18:28
  Speaker 8: media and threatened and everything else, and like, well, you're
• 18:31
  Speaker 8: not gonna I know, I'm not supposed to reveal my vote,
• 18:33
  Speaker 8: but I'm not gonna suffer this, and so they've tried
• 18:37
  Speaker 8: to separate themselves. We still aren't able to identify who
• 18:41
  Speaker 8: the eleven were that didn't vote for him. Eleven or more,
• 18:45
  Speaker 8: but obviously the process is messed up, and I wouldn't
• 18:49
  Speaker 8: be surprised at all that there isn't a complete overall
• 18:51
  Speaker 8: of how it's done because of this controversy. So maybe
• 18:54
  Speaker 8: it was a necessary evil, Maybe we needed to have
• 18:57
  Speaker 8: it happen. Maybe it does pave the way for Mylngrin.
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: Maybe Holgrin and Belichick can get in on the next
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: ballot like they should be in.
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: Well, I mean you look at last year in the
• 19:06
  Speaker 7: way that it all went down with.
• 19:09
  Speaker 9: I mean, it was going to be a perfect opportunity
• 19:11
  Speaker 9: to put coach in and have him and Sterling Sharpen
• 19:13
  Speaker 9: there at the same time. And and the fact that
• 19:15
  Speaker 9: coach just I just didn't understand.
• 19:18
  Speaker 7: None of it made sense. So yeah, something does have
• 19:20
  Speaker 7: to change.
• 19:21
  Speaker 9: And similar to college football, you just got to make
• 19:23
  Speaker 9: something absurd or ridiculous and then it's.
• 19:26
  Speaker 8: Got to crash out before we do what's obvious and
• 19:29
  Speaker 8: what needs to be done to fix things. I mean,
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: they're just too many people on the panel that are like, well,
• 19:34
  Speaker 8: he is a Hall of Famer, but I think he'll
• 19:37
  Speaker 8: he's one of those that needs to wait a couple
• 19:39
  Speaker 8: of years. Yeah, he's either a Hall of Famer or
• 19:43
  Speaker 8: he's not correct.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Stop all right, let's find out what's on.
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: Tap, what's on to what's on tap?
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: Bank is your keyword for the thousand dollars power Play

  Speaker 8: Cash contest ba nk enter it at ninety three to

  Speaker 8: three kjar dot com for your shot at one thousand
• 20:03
  Speaker 8: dollars in cash. Super Bowl sixty eleven sleeps away from
• 20:07
  Speaker 8: Seahawks versus Patriots. Matt Hasselback has been our hired gun
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: throughout these postseason days. And he's gonna join us today
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: at eight o'clock, number eight at eight on a Wednesday
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: here today, and we get him for three more wednesdays.
• 20:21
  Speaker 11: That's exciting.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Belichick, Craft and Brady.
• 20:25
  Speaker 8: Of course, we'll try to find some time to discuss
• 20:27
  Speaker 8: them more. Robert Craft might actually get in ahead of Belichick.
• 20:31
  Speaker 8: Robert Kraft still has a chance to get in on
• 20:33
  Speaker 8: the Hall of Fame ballot this year. And let the
• 20:36
  Speaker 8: conspiracies begin on there.
• 20:38
  Speaker 9: What if he's the one that kept him out so
• 20:40
  Speaker 9: he could get in before him exactly?
• 20:42
  Speaker 8: And then people are saying, well, if you're gonna hold
• 20:44
  Speaker 8: these things against Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, A, you're gonna
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: hold him against Tom Brady as well?
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Is Tom Brady gonna have to wait an extra year.
• 20:51
  Speaker 8: That's why I think maybe this is gonna break the wheel,
• 20:54
  Speaker 8: and I think they're gonna start all over with how
• 20:58
  Speaker 8: to determine who gets into the NFL Hall of Fame.
• 21:01
  Speaker 8: I can't wait to talk to Mike Sandu about it tomorrow.
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: Mike McCarthy teared up at his press conference yesterday as
• 21:08
  Speaker 8: the new head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. He is
• 21:11
  Speaker 8: returning home. I tell you this, tell you this, he
• 21:13
  Speaker 8: didn't take it. He didn't go on a.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: Diet to become the head coach of the Steelers.
• 21:17
  Speaker 8: I tell you that much college football you dubbed schedule
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: is out. We'll find some time to talk about that
• 21:23
  Speaker 8: later on in the show. The twenty twenty six schedule
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: is out. I can't see anything to complain about, but
• 21:29
  Speaker 8: I'm sure, I'm sure there's stuff.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: I'm sure they're stuff.
• 21:34
  Speaker 8: College hoops you dub at Illinois tomorrow night.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Illinois is one of the best teams in the country.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: They are really, really good. I say that without bias.
• 21:44
  Speaker 8: Cracking five to one winners over the Washington Capitals last night.
• 21:47
  Speaker 8: What a huge night for Jared McCann should have had
• 21:51
  Speaker 8: a hat trick two different times ended up with two goals,
• 21:54
  Speaker 8: two assists, a four point night and the cracking one
• 21:57
  Speaker 8: easily over Alex Ovechkin. Of course he did sniper another
• 22:00
  Speaker 8: cheap goal, and we'll talk to Al Koniski about that.
• 22:03
  Speaker 8: At nine thirty tomorrow they take on the Map Beliefs
• 22:06
  Speaker 8: at Climate Pledge Arena.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Seven o'clock, they'll drop the puck.
• 22:09
  Speaker 8: Rick Riz is going to hang it up after this year,
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: so can't wait to talk to him at spring training
• 22:13
  Speaker 8: in just a couple of weeks from now, because he
• 22:16
  Speaker 8: is just one of the favored people in this entire city.
• 22:19
  Speaker 8: So congratulations, Riz, can't wait to hear your final year
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: of calls. And Hugh Millan also a Hall of Famer
• 22:26
  Speaker 8: today the Pacific Northwest Hall of Fame. Our guy one
• 22:30
  Speaker 8: QB one Hugh Milan. No bias against him, No, they
• 22:33
  Speaker 8: put him into the Hall scandals. Nice job, Hugh, So
• 22:38
  Speaker 8: we'll embarrass him with that information later on in the week.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Coming up next, a.
• 22:42
  Speaker 8: Series of unfortunate Super Bowl topics. It's something that we
• 22:46
  Speaker 8: started yesterday. I think these are conversations that we have
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: to have, so we're gonna have one of them next
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: on Sports Radio ninety three.
• 22:53
  Speaker 11: Point three KJRFM.
• 23:10
  Speaker 8: Seven o'clock hour in your faces here on Chucking Buck
• 23:13
  Speaker 8: in the Morning Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Will come in.
• 23:17
  Speaker 8: It is Chucking Buck in the Morning Sports Radio ninety
• 23:20
  Speaker 8: three point three KJRFM, and we've got a lot to
• 23:23
  Speaker 8: do here today, including giving you your cash word. It's
• 23:27
  Speaker 8: money thousand dollars powerplay. Enter that at ninety three three
• 23:30
  Speaker 8: KJR dot com for your shot at one thousand dollars
• 23:33
  Speaker 8: in powerplay cash Money m n e y. We're also
• 23:36
  Speaker 8: two minutes away from Greg Bell's latest information as we
• 23:40
  Speaker 8: count down the days till the Super Bowl, and that's
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: certainly where we start with our frost brewed cores like
• 23:45
  Speaker 8: chews chill headlines. Super Bowl number sixty is coming your
• 23:50
  Speaker 8: way in eleven sleeps. We are just eleven days away
• 23:53
  Speaker 8: from Seahawks versus Patriots to decide the champion of football
• 23:57
  Speaker 8: in the universe, and Greg Bell, we'll fill in some
• 24:00
  Speaker 8: of the cracks here for us here in a little bit.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Other headlines for you.
• 24:04
  Speaker 8: Yesterday, the big story became Bill Belichick denied entry into
• 24:09
  Speaker 8: the Hall of Fame the first ballot. He did not
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: get the necessary forty out of fifty votes from the
• 24:16
  Speaker 8: Hall of Fame Voting Committee, and so he is going
• 24:19
  Speaker 8: to have to wait at least one more year to
• 24:22
  Speaker 8: get into the Hall of Fame. It seems absurd to
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: nearly everyone that's weighed in on this topic, and so
• 24:29
  Speaker 8: we'll ask Greg about that a little bit more as well.
• 24:32
  Speaker 8: College football ubs schedule came out for twenty twenty six.
• 24:36
  Speaker 8: They will start against the Koogs and that will be
• 24:40
  Speaker 8: on September fifth.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Again, a light I'm.
• 24:43
  Speaker 8: Sorry, softy cupcake schedule, non conference Utah State, Eastern Washington.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Those are the non conference opponents.
• 24:50
  Speaker 8: We already knew that, and then they'll of course split
• 24:54
  Speaker 8: it up fort home games, four road games in conference play.
• 24:57
  Speaker 8: The road games this year will be at us See,
• 25:00
  Speaker 8: then back to back at Purdue and at Nebraska, and
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: then you're gonna have at Oregon to close out the year,
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: which means the home games in conference play will be Indiana,
• 25:11
  Speaker 8: Penn State, Minnesota, and Iowa and not in that order.
• 25:16
  Speaker 8: So we'll find some time a little bit later on
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: in the show to discuss it further.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: Cracking one last night.
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: Behind Jared McCann's big night, he should have had a
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: hat trick two different times hats were thrown on the
• 25:30
  Speaker 8: ice because they thought that he had a third goal,
• 25:33
  Speaker 8: and yet review of a Matty Vanier's high stick eliminated
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: that goal. He's still ended up with a great night,
• 25:41
  Speaker 8: two goals to assists. He's absolutely on fire. Right now,
• 25:44
  Speaker 8: Cracking have won three out of four. They won five
• 25:46
  Speaker 8: to one over the Caps. They'll take on the Maple
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: Leafs tomorrow at home at seven o'clock. Congratulations to Rick Riz.
• 25:52
  Speaker 8: It's going to be his final year as the play
• 25:54
  Speaker 8: by play voice on the radio side of your Seattle Mariners.
• 25:57
  Speaker 8: So let's make it a world series call for Rick
• 26:01
  Speaker 8: Riz as his last a air breaths.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: That'd be great, that would be perfect, just perfect. All right,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: let's talk to Greg with the bell tolls.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: It must be seven o'clock and time for twelfth Man
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: News with Greg Bell, brought to you by Copola Diamond
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Collection Prosecco Chris Sparkling with Bright Fruit flavors to make
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: every toast shine Game Day Bubbles only with Copola Diamond Forsecco.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Now with twelfth Man News, here's.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: Greg Bell with Chuck and Bud.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: Come on, Greg, good morning.
• 26:33
  Speaker 8: All right, so let's start with this and then get
• 26:36
  Speaker 8: into some Seahawks topics. What do you make as an
• 26:40
  Speaker 8: NFL beat rider of twenty plus years of Bill Belichick
• 26:44
  Speaker 8: not getting into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on
• 26:47
  Speaker 8: his first vote.
• 26:49
  Speaker 10: Well, I'm not breaking any new ground to say it's
• 26:51
  Speaker 10: embarrassing to the process. It's ridiculous. The process is broken.
• 26:56
  Speaker 10: Our own Mike Sando, prodecessor mind at the News Tribune,
• 26:59
  Speaker 10: has probably explained to you how the process has changed.
• 27:04
  Speaker 10: Used to be that the coaches were in the same
• 27:07
  Speaker 10: pool as modern era players and they all were voted
• 27:09
  Speaker 10: at the same time until Bill Parcells eventually got in,
• 27:12
  Speaker 10: although he had to wait a couple of rounds. And
• 27:15
  Speaker 10: then they did it to the coaches had their own lanes,
• 27:18
  Speaker 10: and then guys like Dick Vermial and Tony Dungee and
• 27:21
  Speaker 10: Bill Kower with one Super Bowl wins, we're getting in.
• 27:25
  Speaker 10: And then they said, well, that's a little too much,
• 27:27
  Speaker 10: so let's make it this way and this way. Now,
• 27:29
  Speaker 10: as of last year, the change was there's only one
• 27:33
  Speaker 10: coach nominated each year, and then he goes into a
• 27:37
  Speaker 10: pool of five with three senior player candidates. Senior player
• 27:41
  Speaker 10: candidates is the broken process itself, because there are voters
• 27:45
  Speaker 10: who will just won't vote worthy players in, and the
• 27:49
  Speaker 10: modern era saying we'll just get him in the senior
• 27:52
  Speaker 10: go around, they get another crack later, so we just
• 27:54
  Speaker 10: won't vote him in. Now, those three get put in
• 27:57
  Speaker 10: with the one coach nominee and then the one contributor nominee,
• 28:01
  Speaker 10: which is often an owner. This year it's Robert Kraft
• 28:03
  Speaker 10: and the Patriots, for instance. So the coach has those
• 28:07
  Speaker 10: four that he has to go against, and there's only
• 28:10
  Speaker 10: one coach candidate each year. The system broke from Mike
• 28:14
  Speaker 10: Holmegreun last year, and that's why he didn't get in,
• 28:17
  Speaker 10: and we all were up in arms here in the
• 28:19
  Speaker 10: Pacific Northwestern in Green Bay about that, and now the
• 28:21
  Speaker 10: whole football world's and up in arms because it happened
• 28:23
  Speaker 10: to Bill Belichick. But the requirement now is that it's
• 28:27
  Speaker 10: eighty percent. They're fifty selectors, so forty votes to get
• 28:30
  Speaker 10: in among those five three No more than three of
• 28:34
  Speaker 10: those five can get in, up to three. You don't
• 28:37
  Speaker 10: have to vote for three as a selector, but up
• 28:39
  Speaker 10: to three of those five. So the math doesn't math
• 28:43
  Speaker 10: a lot of the times, and it didn't for home
• 28:45
  Speaker 10: Run last year, and apparently it hasn't for Belichick. The
• 28:50
  Speaker 10: process is really broken. Mike's going to tell you that,
• 28:53
  Speaker 10: I think this week when you talk to him. The
• 28:56
  Speaker 10: result of all of this is likely to be yet
• 28:58
  Speaker 10: another change by the Pro Football Hall of Fame in
• 29:00
  Speaker 10: the process, and the upshot is in the meantime too
• 29:06
  Speaker 10: worthy candidate not only Canada, too worthy and Shines, who
• 29:09
  Speaker 10: should already have gold jackets. Mike Holmgren and Bill Belichick
• 29:12
  Speaker 10: are not in. Ballichick will get in likely next year
• 29:16
  Speaker 10: as a correction for this year, which means Mike Coman
• 29:18
  Speaker 10: won't get in next year either. Yeah, and then I mean,
• 29:23
  Speaker 10: it's just I hate the dispairage those who are in,
• 29:27
  Speaker 10: like Tony Dungee and Dick Formale and others, they'll cower,
• 29:30
  Speaker 10: that's per guy. And but the facts are still that there.
• 29:34
  Speaker 10: They let too many in and now they're letting none in.
• 29:37
  Speaker 10: And well, chicktball Hall of Fame process is broken, but
• 29:41
  Speaker 10: the football Hall of Fame is coming close now to
• 29:43
  Speaker 10: the baseball one.
• 29:44
  Speaker 8: I think they're both really bad, which is why I
• 29:47
  Speaker 8: don't get we.
• 29:49
  Speaker 10: Talked about the baseball one. There are people who've never
• 29:52
  Speaker 10: been in a baseball clubhouse and who are teachers and
• 29:55
  Speaker 10: truck drivers and not even in the business who vote
• 29:58
  Speaker 10: for the Hall of Fame.
• 29:59
  Speaker 8: But that's another Is there any chance, though, that this
• 30:01
  Speaker 8: is going to be so controversial that the whole process
• 30:04
  Speaker 8: will get blown up this year and they'll put guys
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: like Mike Sando on the job of creating a better process.
• 30:11
  Speaker 10: Well, they should. I don't know if it will, but
• 30:13
  Speaker 10: they should. It'll result in changes. I'm pretty certain of that.
• 30:17
  Speaker 10: And I know some of the people who would be
• 30:19
  Speaker 10: involved in those changes, or I know some of the
• 30:21
  Speaker 10: people who should be involved that the Hall of Fame
• 30:23
  Speaker 10: does the right thing enlist them to help. I'm not
• 30:27
  Speaker 10: certain it's gonna happen as the point of blowing up
• 30:29
  Speaker 10: and starting over, but I do think there'll be changes
• 30:32
  Speaker 10: that are next year there'll be a different process than
• 30:34
  Speaker 10: the one that exists.
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: Well, good, hopefully they change it, because if it does
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: result in a couple of years of home you're not
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: getting in. It's a worthless process to begin one more.
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: Just on that, do you believe that feelings about how
• 30:49
  Speaker 6: someone treats the media, maybe individually as a voter, should
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: play a role. I mean, if you want to say, okay,
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: he cheated, So I'm not going to put him in
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: first ballot because of that. That's that's one thing. If
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: you but if you want to say, I just think
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: he wasn't a very nice guy, Should that play a
• 31:07
  Speaker 6: role in it?
• 31:08
  Speaker 10: No, you've got to be you got to be professional
• 31:11
  Speaker 10: and get over yourself. You remember, I spent most of
• 31:17
  Speaker 10: my life not being treated very well as a media
• 31:20
  Speaker 10: member in locker rooms and settings, and that's part of
• 31:24
  Speaker 10: the job that I hope that's not. That's pretty petty
• 31:27
  Speaker 10: if it is. The whole Bill Pollian thing when I'm reading,
• 31:30
  Speaker 10: is just justifying how he tells one reporter that he
• 31:34
  Speaker 10: didn't vote for it. That I should say some selectors
• 31:37
  Speaker 10: say that Bill Poleon told him not to vote for Pelichick,
• 31:41
  Speaker 10: and then Poleon coming out and telling then not on
• 31:43
  Speaker 10: last state, I don't remember who I voted for. The
• 31:46
  Speaker 10: vote was only two weeks ago.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 31:52
  Speaker 8: He looks about as guilty as you can look on
• 31:55
  Speaker 8: all front, even I mean even from the rumors when
• 31:59
  Speaker 8: you when you kind of openly lie. Now all of
• 32:01
  Speaker 8: a sudden, all those conspiracy rumors like you were trying
• 32:04
  Speaker 8: to influence voters not to vote for him.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Now those hit hard, hit hard as truths. Yeah, well
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: how about this?
• 32:11
  Speaker 10: How about we bitched decent human beings tell the truth
• 32:14
  Speaker 10: and dark transparents and say who's voted for who? And
• 32:17
  Speaker 10: what's roll with that? Of course our soul society could use.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Some of that.
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: Greg bellis with us are Seahawks insider, of course with
• 32:25
  Speaker 8: the News Tribune. You can follow is complete Seahawks coverage
• 32:28
  Speaker 8: at the Neewstribune dot com. I don't think we necessarily
• 32:33
  Speaker 8: have to get into like game notes for a game
• 32:35
  Speaker 8: that's going to be played in eleven days just yet.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: So I do want to ask you about sort of
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: your approach.
• 32:41
  Speaker 8: We brought up a very uncomfortable subject in our last hour.
• 32:45
  Speaker 8: I'm wondering what you're thinking as beat writer for the Seahawks.
• 32:51
  Speaker 8: How much time will you spend writing stories, if any
• 32:54
  Speaker 8: at all, about the one yard line play, about how
• 32:59
  Speaker 8: those Seawks players feel ten years later, a lot of
• 33:02
  Speaker 8: which are on the bandwagon and couldn't be greater Seahawk
• 33:05
  Speaker 8: supporters of the twenty twenty five to twenty six team.
• 33:09
  Speaker 8: Will you spend some time sort of navigating those waters
• 33:13
  Speaker 8: here over the next twelve days.
• 33:17
  Speaker 10: I don't know how much, but some I mean, there's context.
• 33:19
  Speaker 10: This is a historical context this matchup and then this
• 33:22
  Speaker 10: matchup ending as it did. I covered that, so I
• 33:25
  Speaker 10: have a personal knowledge recollection of it. It's part of
• 33:30
  Speaker 10: the tableau of the event, in the context, in the
• 33:35
  Speaker 10: matchup and history between these two teams. So is you
• 33:39
  Speaker 10: mad bro Richard Sherman and Tom Brady after a game
• 33:43
  Speaker 10: at bloom And Field? So some, But I don't know
• 33:47
  Speaker 10: that I'd go down along rabbit holes. I think I
• 33:51
  Speaker 10: do know this. It's an easy television angle. And we're
• 33:54
  Speaker 10: going to see the replay of Malcolm Butler's interception five
• 33:58
  Speaker 10: thousand times between now and then fifty thousand times because
• 34:01
  Speaker 10: it's just easy.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm with you. But do you think
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: the I mean.
• 34:06
  Speaker 6: The the current players, none of them are even given
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: it two thoughts? Right, the rematch part of this thing?
• 34:15
  Speaker 10: No, I mean that was two thousand? Was that twenty fourteen?
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Twenty fifteen was the game game for them?
• 34:23
  Speaker 10: Well? No, because half the Seahawks, more than half the
• 34:25
  Speaker 10: Seahawks roster was in middle school, in high school then,
• 34:29
  Speaker 10: So no, I don't believe. So I can't even think
• 34:32
  Speaker 10: of a player. No, I mean, Sharon Reid was twenty sixteen.
• 34:37
  Speaker 10: Michael Dixon was twenty sixteen. Yeah, I don't know of
• 34:42
  Speaker 10: anybody other than like E K and Well Kelly and
• 34:46
  Speaker 10: guys like that that were even around them. Dave Pearson me, yeah,
• 34:52
  Speaker 10: nobody on the field. I mean, these guys don't even
• 34:56
  Speaker 10: know who Jim's orn it was. They weren't born yet,
• 34:59
  Speaker 10: so the history of them is often lost on the
• 35:02
  Speaker 10: modern player. Not do no fault of their own. We
• 35:04
  Speaker 10: just don't know what we don't know.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Greg bellis, whether that's our Seahawks insider.
• 35:09
  Speaker 8: Joining us right here on Chuck and Buck every day
• 35:12
  Speaker 8: here at seven oh five to talk to some Seahawks football.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: So let's talk about then this schedule.
• 35:17
  Speaker 8: Mike McDonald decided to give the players a couple of
• 35:20
  Speaker 8: days off here, and he's decided to consult with some
• 35:25
  Speaker 8: of his mentors about how to proceed.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: What have you learned about that and why?
• 35:31
  Speaker 10: Well, it's just smart that you're gonna guys that you
• 35:34
  Speaker 10: already trusted a mentor someone who he patterns a lot
• 35:37
  Speaker 10: of his Seahawk program. John Harvaugh from learning under him
• 35:41
  Speaker 10: for a decade in Baltimore, went to two Super Bowls
• 35:43
  Speaker 10: and did this logistics and planning, and as he's smart,
• 35:47
  Speaker 10: he's going to ask them that the big, the big question,
• 35:50
  Speaker 10: a big decision he has his first time head coaches,
• 35:54
  Speaker 10: how much of a game plan do we put in?
• 35:56
  Speaker 10: I remember talking to Mike Quongrin about this before Super
• 35:58
  Speaker 10: Bowl forty when Seahawks plan the Steelers in Detroit the
• 36:02
  Speaker 10: bye week for all of us, it's like, why do
• 36:05
  Speaker 10: they have a bye week? This is so unnecessary. Just
• 36:06
  Speaker 10: play the game the next wall. It's the hype machine
• 36:09
  Speaker 10: and executors got to get in plenty of time for
• 36:12
  Speaker 10: living in San Francisco for a week. All that. But
• 36:14
  Speaker 10: the practical matter is how much of the game plan
• 36:17
  Speaker 10: do you put in before you leave? It used to
• 36:20
  Speaker 10: be way back when that teams would kind of spread
• 36:23
  Speaker 10: it out, so coaches would spread it out so that
• 36:25
  Speaker 10: the players weren't overwhelmed with it. They were afforded extra
• 36:29
  Speaker 10: time to absorb the game plan. But the modern coach,
• 36:33
  Speaker 10: I don't know if starting with long we're in but
• 36:35
  Speaker 10: about then, would say, no, no, let's put the whole
• 36:37
  Speaker 10: game plan in like we would during a regular cadence
• 36:40
  Speaker 10: of a regular game week one Sunday to the next,
• 36:43
  Speaker 10: and then we would have when we get to the
• 36:45
  Speaker 10: super Bowl site, when it's all the other huhan distractions
• 36:48
  Speaker 10: and media obligations. We don't have to study the exes
• 36:52
  Speaker 10: and know the football because we have already had that
• 36:54
  Speaker 10: put in and installed back home. And that's where I
• 36:57
  Speaker 10: think McDonald's landing, and that's probably where most of it
• 37:00
  Speaker 10: will be. Now. They may take some third down or
• 37:04
  Speaker 10: some red zone tweaks once take it down there. Mike
• 37:06
  Speaker 10: McDonald always says he's guilty of overthinking, and right up
• 37:09
  Speaker 10: to the morning of or even a pregame on the
• 37:12
  Speaker 10: field of the game, he's tweaking things and changing the
• 37:15
  Speaker 10: game plan because he thinks too much. But he's probably
• 37:18
  Speaker 10: decided in the last few days, with Leslie Fraser and
• 37:22
  Speaker 10: Rick Dennison and some of the other on his staff
• 37:25
  Speaker 10: that have extensive super Bowl experience, to put most of
• 37:28
  Speaker 10: the game plan in this week, say for maybe some
• 37:31
  Speaker 10: of the specialty stuff. Then there's been meetings the last
• 37:34
  Speaker 10: couple of days with players talking about Super Bowl tickets
• 37:37
  Speaker 10: and arrangements for their families and the schedule and all
• 37:42
  Speaker 10: the things you never would have to do for a
• 37:43
  Speaker 10: normal game that they have to go through. And that's
• 37:46
  Speaker 10: what the early part of this week is for the
• 37:49
  Speaker 10: bodies are resting. Even when they practice for the first
• 37:51
  Speaker 10: time this week tomorrow, it's going to probably be ultra light.
• 37:55
  Speaker 10: It won't be anything like a regular Sunday to Sunday
• 38:00
  Speaker 10: this week. So this is a recharge and move the
• 38:03
  Speaker 10: furniture around logistically, get all that done before they pack
• 38:07
  Speaker 10: the all operation up Sunday and head to San Jose.
• 38:09
  Speaker 10: And for those who don't know, they are staying in
• 38:12
  Speaker 10: San Jose, they're practicing at San Jose State University. It's
• 38:15
  Speaker 10: about fifty miles. Anyone who's from the Nose to Bay area,
• 38:18
  Speaker 10: it's fifty miles but two hours traffic from San Francisco,
• 38:22
  Speaker 10: where the rest of the radio row and NFL events
• 38:25
  Speaker 10: will be. So the Seahawks and Patriots Patriots are at
• 38:28
  Speaker 10: Stanford practice and they're going to be almost sequestered away
• 38:33
  Speaker 10: from all the HUHA and everything. Monday night's the big
• 38:38
  Speaker 10: media Super Bowl Opening Night whatever they call it, the
• 38:41
  Speaker 10: made for TV live event. Monday Night it's the San
• 38:43
  Speaker 10: Jose Convention Center when so called journalists who like TMZ
• 38:48
  Speaker 10: and people who are clowns and circus acts do all
• 38:52
  Speaker 10: these crazy stunts to players. That's Monday night and the
• 38:55
  Speaker 10: players can't wait to get that over with.
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: Well, I'm is you have a gut feel on whether
• 39:02
  Speaker 6: or not this could be the last game with Clint
• 39:04
  Speaker 6: Kubiak or I mean, after he goes toe to toe
• 39:06
  Speaker 6: with McVeigh and Stafford and ends up helping win that game,
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: is he going to be a guy that is going
• 39:13
  Speaker 6: to take one of the available jobs if he's offered it.
• 39:16
  Speaker 10: Well, I gotta think, Bucky that for the teams such
• 39:19
  Speaker 10: as the Raiders that don't have jobs filled yet that
• 39:21
  Speaker 10: they're waiting to talk to Kubiak yet again, which will
• 39:24
  Speaker 10: come after the Super Bowl, my gut feeling is Kubiak's
• 39:29
  Speaker 10: not going anywhere. I haven't talked to him directly asking
• 39:33
  Speaker 10: him that question, but I think the Seahawks are going
• 39:36
  Speaker 10: to make a push to keep him, whether it's a raise,
• 39:38
  Speaker 10: whether it's a promotion to assistant head coach with Leslie
• 39:41
  Speaker 10: Fraser already has that title something. They're not just gonna
• 39:45
  Speaker 10: let him walk out of the door say thanks for
• 39:47
  Speaker 10: the year you had. And I do still think that
• 39:50
  Speaker 10: if I'm an owner gm president of a team hiring
• 39:55
  Speaker 10: a head coach, I'd have some pause that he has
• 39:57
  Speaker 10: not been in a job for more than two years
• 39:59
  Speaker 10: at a name one place, and that he's only had
• 40:01
  Speaker 10: of all his long history in coaching here, he's still
• 40:05
  Speaker 10: only thirty eight, but he's doing this almost eighteen years now,
• 40:08
  Speaker 10: that he's only been an offensive coordinator play call at
• 40:10
  Speaker 10: the NFL level for two times Minnesota and one year
• 40:14
  Speaker 10: at New Orleans, now one year in Seattle. I don't
• 40:17
  Speaker 10: think he's ready my personal opinion. I'm not trying to
• 40:20
  Speaker 10: disparage him. I'm just trying to say I think head
• 40:23
  Speaker 10: coaches might need a little more play calling experience in
• 40:26
  Speaker 10: one place. But Sean McVay was thirty when he got
• 40:30
  Speaker 10: his job. So the Raiders that sound it looks like
• 40:33
  Speaker 10: the Raiders are going to talk to him again. I
• 40:35
  Speaker 10: know Brian Dayball is also apparently reportedly in the running
• 40:38
  Speaker 10: for that job too, But if you had to say
• 40:41
  Speaker 10: what right now, my gut feeling is he's going to stay.
• 40:44
  Speaker 11: All right, Greg, thank you very much.
• 40:46
  Speaker 8: Got a lot more discussions to have before Super Bowl Sunday.
• 40:49
  Speaker 8: So yeah, we look forward to tomorrow at a round
• 40:53
  Speaker 8: table with you and Hall of Famer Hugh Mellon.
• 40:58
  Speaker 10: And roundtable tomorrow and you guys Arena be there of Monday, right,
• 41:01
  Speaker 10: so I'll see you down there.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll be there Monday. I'll leave the part of
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: the clown show. But we're gonna I'm actually.
• 41:06
  Speaker 6: Gonna wear a curly wig, red nose, big shoes.
• 41:10
  Speaker 10: Yeah even and you wouldn't even nearly be the most
• 41:14
  Speaker 10: ridiculous thing there. I mean that that event is just absurd.
• 41:18
  Speaker 10: If the story is how absurd it is, you'll see.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think I'm going I'm not going to
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: go to that. I've been to a few of those.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: No reason to go really. All right, Greg, thanks man,

  Speaker 12: this took us out of the friend zone.
• 42:35
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean, you know, in like.
• 42:36
  Speaker 12: A relationship, like you're in the friend zone. I thought
• 42:39
  Speaker 12: we kind of like took the next step. I thought
• 42:41
  Speaker 12: we were gonna have a DTR talk, determine the relationship talk.
• 42:46
  Speaker 12: All right, I guess we're still friends. I guess I
• 42:48
  Speaker 12: know what that feels like.
• 42:49
  Speaker 8: Now, Well, maybe we're best friends, but at best friends.
• 42:54
  Speaker 8: Then you got to help us get out of a
• 42:55
  Speaker 8: criminal situation. Right, That's what best friends do. So be
• 42:58
  Speaker 8: careful what you wish for, Matt. H Well, take us

• 43:21

• 43:26
  Speaker 12: so I apologize. It's still gone from the game. Just
• 43:28
  Speaker 12: got home last night after many flight cancellations, but you know,
• 43:31
  Speaker 12: I came in, came in for the game, came in
• 43:33
  Speaker 12: the night before, went to the game with my brother
• 43:35
  Speaker 12: who lives up in Edmonds, and just kind of had
• 43:38
  Speaker 12: a unique experience. We walked from my hotel down to
• 43:43
  Speaker 12: down to the game and walked past all the tailgating,
• 43:45
  Speaker 12: all the bars, all the.
• 43:47
  Speaker 5: Stuff I'd never seen before.
• 43:48
  Speaker 12: You know, I'm used to getting to the stadium hours
• 43:51
  Speaker 12: and hours and hours beforehand, but you know, just seeing
• 43:53
  Speaker 12: everybody in their jersey and then having fun and the
• 43:56
  Speaker 12: music and the sights and smells and all that, and
• 43:59
  Speaker 12: you know, got kind of a like an escort straight
• 44:01
  Speaker 12: onto the field. Otherwise I would have no idea how
• 44:04
  Speaker 12: to get down there. Saw a lot of like old
• 44:06
  Speaker 12: teammates and friends and fans, and it was it was unbelievable.
• 44:10
  Speaker 12: It was just like the energy and the excitement. It
• 44:13
  Speaker 12: was NFC Championship like it felt like it. And you know,
• 44:17
  Speaker 12: my myself, Michael Bennett, Cliffevral, we go up to the
• 44:21
  Speaker 12: you know, the twelve flag.
• 44:22
  Speaker 5: It's a big surprise. Who's gonna raise the flag?
• 44:25
  Speaker 12: Jody Allen was raising it the only choice in my
• 44:28
  Speaker 12: in my opinion, because of you know what it meant
• 44:31
  Speaker 12: to us when Paul Allen raised it for the first
• 44:34
  Speaker 12: time we host hosted an NFC Championship game, And like
• 44:38
  Speaker 12: from that moment on, it's like just like all a blur.
• 44:41
  Speaker 12: Like it was like someone will be like, oh, remember
• 44:43
  Speaker 12: when you were whatever high fiving Chris Pratt after that play.
• 44:46
  Speaker 12: I'm like, oh, yeah, Chris Pratt was I forgot about that.
• 44:49
  Speaker 12: Like it was like all these epic Oh you remember
• 44:51
  Speaker 12: when Sam Darnold did that? You know, oh yeah, I
• 44:53
  Speaker 12: remember that. But it's just like all a blur. And
• 44:56
  Speaker 12: it's an amazing, amazing night, amazing game, amazing weekend, and
• 45:01
  Speaker 12: you know, I hopefully we kind of have these like
• 45:03
  Speaker 12: little memories that come back, you know, for the next
• 45:06
  Speaker 12: two weeks where we just kind of recall all the
• 45:09
  Speaker 12: great stuff that it was hosting that game.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: I love for the second there you were a freaking
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: guardian of the galaxy. I love that.
• 45:15
  Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, I was more of the parks and
• 45:18
  Speaker 12: rec fan. And that's what my wife said. She was
• 45:21
  Speaker 12: like naming all these marvel you know, situations, and I
• 45:23
  Speaker 12: was just like, okay, you know, but it was hilarious
• 45:27
  Speaker 12: because like the Seahawks kind of hosted us in a
• 45:29
  Speaker 12: suite or whatever, and my brother's like looking at this
• 45:32
  Speaker 12: guy on the other side of us, and he's like,
• 45:34
  Speaker 12: oh my gosh, dude, that dude looks just like Tucker Wetmore.
• 45:37
  Speaker 12: I'm like, oh, the singer. I'm like, oh yeah, I
• 45:39
  Speaker 12: love his music. I don't know what he looks like though, whatever,
• 45:41
  Speaker 12: like blah blah blah. His first quarter goes on, second
• 45:44
  Speaker 12: quarters goes on, halftime comes down. The dude that was
• 45:47
  Speaker 12: just sitting next to us is now singing for like
• 45:49
  Speaker 12: the halftime performance. We're like, oh my gosh, that was
• 45:52
  Speaker 12: Tucker Wetmore, Like what you know. It's like it was
• 45:55
  Speaker 12: like all these like random things that just kind of
• 45:57
  Speaker 12: happened throughout the game.
• 45:58
  Speaker 5: But none big than the game.
• 46:00
  Speaker 12: Like the game was just I just thought it was
• 46:03
  Speaker 12: an incredible performance by both quarterbacks, all the wide receivers.
• 46:07
  Speaker 5: Is gonna come down to some some something.
• 46:08
  Speaker 12: You know, one play here, one play there, an unsung
• 46:11
  Speaker 12: hero that here, an unsung Euro there.
• 46:14
  Speaker 5: That's exactly what happened.
• 46:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I mean now having a few days to
• 46:17
  Speaker 6: kind of let it sink in a little bit, Matt,
• 46:19
  Speaker 6: I'm wondering when when you're thinking about a game that
• 46:22
  Speaker 6: is this big, right when you got the super Bowl
• 46:25
  Speaker 6: on the line, it does feel like there's more hanging
• 46:27
  Speaker 6: in the balance of every single play.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: But what were the big plays to you? Or was
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: there one in particular like that one?
• 46:34
  Speaker 6: If it goes differently, maybe doesn't work out the same
• 46:36
  Speaker 6: way for the Seahawks.
• 46:38
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 46:38
  Speaker 12: I think in every game you can point to about
• 46:40
  Speaker 12: five plays that if we just make this play, we
• 46:43
  Speaker 12: win the game.
• 46:43
  Speaker 5: If we didn't make that play, we lose the game.
• 46:46
  Speaker 12: And you know, the one in particular for me was
• 46:49
  Speaker 12: just the sequence of where you know, I think we
• 46:52
  Speaker 12: might have gone three and out, but we struggled offensively.
• 46:55
  Speaker 5: And then we have the great punt.
• 46:58
  Speaker 12: It's hard to handle and Derek Young covers the punt,
• 47:01
  Speaker 12: and then like three plays later, like shortly thereafter, it's
• 47:05
  Speaker 12: Jake Bobo like obviously for a touchdown.
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: You know, like that that sequence, because.
• 47:11
  Speaker 12: As great of a win as this is, it would
• 47:13
  Speaker 12: have been equally and maybe even more of a like
• 47:16
  Speaker 12: a brutal loss if Sam Donald and company hadn't been
• 47:19
  Speaker 12: able to get it done. And you know, everyone would
• 47:21
  Speaker 12: have just piled on Sam Donald. And instead he was
• 47:25
  Speaker 12: as calm and as cool as like he could have been.
• 47:28
  Speaker 12: You know, we get a sudden change, we're in the
• 47:30
  Speaker 12: red zone, we go with a play action, they bring
• 47:32
  Speaker 12: a corner blitz, they double JSN and he doesn't even flinch,
• 47:36
  Speaker 12: he doesn't even blink. He's got a dude in his face,
• 47:39
  Speaker 12: and he throws this perfect I call it a goal
• 47:41
  Speaker 12: post throw. It gets up high enough to go through
• 47:43
  Speaker 12: a goal post and gets down quick enough like a fastball,
• 47:47
  Speaker 12: right down the middle to Jake Bobo, who runs a
• 47:49
  Speaker 12: great route like total afterthought in the passing game this year,
• 47:53
  Speaker 12: and he was ready to make the play. So those
• 47:55
  Speaker 12: two young receivers coming through and Sam just making it easy,
• 48:01
  Speaker 12: and then in a sense like right there, like I
• 48:03
  Speaker 12: just think that was a major turning point in the.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: Game, number eight to eight.
• 48:06
  Speaker 8: Matt Hasselbeck with us here on Chucking Buck in the
• 48:08
  Speaker 8: morning Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM Fast becoming
• 48:12
  Speaker 8: best friends with Matt Hasselbeck and as we discussed the
• 48:16
  Speaker 8: Seahawks moving on to the Super Bowl, what was your
• 48:19
  Speaker 8: opinion about Sam Darnold the day that he signed with
• 48:23
  Speaker 8: the Seahawks and what is your opinion about him today?
• 48:27
  Speaker 12: He had a great year last year. I was really
• 48:29
  Speaker 12: impressed with his year last year. I was really surprised
• 48:31
  Speaker 12: the Minnesota Vikings chose to not chose not to sign
• 48:35
  Speaker 12: him back. I was really shocked. And when he signed here,
• 48:38
  Speaker 12: he signed for a huge contract. They you know, they
• 48:40
  Speaker 12: said goodbye to a bunch of people here, said goodbye
• 48:42
  Speaker 12: to Gino Smith. And I said, you know, I really
• 48:45
  Speaker 12: thought this was a good idea. It's a really good idea.
• 48:47
  Speaker 12: Is a good young quarterback that has some scars from
• 48:50
  Speaker 12: the past. You don't have to go through the growing
• 48:52
  Speaker 12: pains with him because he's already gone through those growing pains.
• 48:55
  Speaker 12: But I really felt like he was gonna need to
• 48:58
  Speaker 12: do it consistently, which he'd been doing in Minnesota.
• 49:01
  Speaker 5: But he was gonna need to do it.
• 49:02
  Speaker 12: In a playoff game, in a playoff atmosphere in order
• 49:06
  Speaker 12: to kind of quiet the haters that still look at
• 49:09
  Speaker 12: him like he's Sam Darnold, the rookie that played for
• 49:11
  Speaker 12: the Jets and he got the opportunity. And I just
• 49:15
  Speaker 12: think I think he's answered it. Like I think he's
• 49:17
  Speaker 12: answered all those questions. I think he's quieted all those
• 49:20
  Speaker 12: you know, people in New York that just like, oh, yeah,
• 49:22
  Speaker 12: I know him, you know, Like, no, you don't know him,
• 49:24
  Speaker 12: you don't know him. You know, this is a guy
• 49:26
  Speaker 12: that's improved. He's with a play caller that he really
• 49:29
  Speaker 12: jives with. And if we can keep play caller quarterback together,
• 49:35
  Speaker 12: obviously we've got GM head coach, you know.
• 49:38
  Speaker 5: If you kind of get.
• 49:39
  Speaker 12: That little I call it a triad GM head coach quarterback.
• 49:42
  Speaker 12: But I think what's really important is you keep this
• 49:44
  Speaker 12: quarterback in this system with this guy. You know, I
• 49:48
  Speaker 12: think the Seahawk can be really, really good for a
• 49:50
  Speaker 12: long time.
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: I'm with you.
• 49:52
  Speaker 6: I mean, the idea of him doing what he's done
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: this year, in the first year with Clint Koback, in
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: the first year as a Seahawk, after first year with
• 50:00
  Speaker 6: the Minnesota Vikings, I think is commendable and it's something
• 50:02
  Speaker 6: that you could probably understand far more. I mean, how
• 50:05
  Speaker 6: difficult is it. How much more credit do you give
• 50:08
  Speaker 6: him as a former quarterback considering he's doing this and
• 50:11
  Speaker 6: it's not the third year in the same system or
• 50:14
  Speaker 6: fourth year in the same system with that triad that
• 50:17
  Speaker 6: you're talking about.
• 50:18
  Speaker 12: Well, I give John Schneider and Mike McDonald a lot
• 50:21
  Speaker 12: of credit because it's you know, it's a different team,
• 50:25
  Speaker 12: but it kind of is the same playbook. You know,
• 50:27
  Speaker 12: this is the forty nine Ers playbook that Kyle Shanahan
• 50:30
  Speaker 12: was running when Klink Kubiak was an assistant coach and
• 50:34
  Speaker 12: sam Donold was a backup quarterback. And then he loves
• 50:38
  Speaker 12: that system so much and he loves how they teach
• 50:40
  Speaker 12: it and the lens that they teach it through that
• 50:42
  Speaker 12: he goes to Minnesota to be a backup, you know,
• 50:45
  Speaker 12: for their first round pick quarterback, but he wants to
• 50:48
  Speaker 12: you know, play under in that system under Kevin O'Connell,
• 50:51
  Speaker 12: you know, another guy that's kind of a Shanahan McVeigh
• 50:54
  Speaker 12: type guy. And then he realizes, like, hey, you know,
• 50:57
  Speaker 12: like that this is important. I love this this is
• 50:59
  Speaker 12: my fa favorite system, my favorite offense. Who else is
• 51:03
  Speaker 12: running that system? Well, it wasn't the Seahawks and Ryan
• 51:06
  Speaker 12: Grubb at the time, but all of a sudden, it
• 51:08
  Speaker 12: was the Seahawks and Clint Kubiak, who had a relationship
• 51:11
  Speaker 12: with already helped him. You know, Clint Kubiak helped the
• 51:14
  Speaker 12: Seahawks recruit Sam to Seattle because he was a free agent,
• 51:18
  Speaker 12: could have gone anywhere. And so now he's back in
• 51:21
  Speaker 12: that system that suits him so well with a guy
• 51:24
  Speaker 12: that you know, he's got a pre existing relationship with.
• 51:27
  Speaker 12: When when you know, once upon a time it was
• 51:30
  Speaker 12: you know, Shanahan and Purdy were like.
• 51:31
  Speaker 5: The guys, and those were the sort of the backup
• 51:34
  Speaker 5: to the guys.
• 51:35
  Speaker 12: Now they're the guys, and so like, I just think,
• 51:38
  Speaker 12: like putting your staff together, recruiting your players, your quarterback.
• 51:44
  Speaker 12: You know, someone upstairs gets the credit for that, and
• 51:46
  Speaker 12: I got to think it's John Schneider, and it's Mike McDonald,
• 51:50
  Speaker 12: and you know, it's it's kind of a match made
• 51:52
  Speaker 12: in heaven.
• 51:52
  Speaker 8: Matt Hasselbeck is with us here on the program. Have
• 51:56
  Speaker 8: you did you ever play with a receiver as smooth
• 51:59
  Speaker 8: as JS? And I mean, he's like he's the Scotch.
• 52:02
  Speaker 8: I can't afford that's how smooth he is.
• 52:05
  Speaker 5: I like that.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: I use that.
• 52:08
  Speaker 5: I mean, has anybody played with anybody like Jaysn.
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: I don't don't know.
• 52:12
  Speaker 12: You know, it's like some people ask me to do
• 52:14
  Speaker 12: a like, hey, who does he remind you of?
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: Who is he?
• 52:17
  Speaker 12: Like, give us a comp And it's almost disrespectful to
• 52:20
  Speaker 12: his game because he's so he's so so much of
• 52:23
  Speaker 12: a unicorn, Like he's just, uh, you know, he's got
• 52:26
  Speaker 12: the smoothness of a Terry Glenn if you remember that name.
• 52:30
  Speaker 12: And he's just effortless though, and I think he's so confident,
• 52:34
  Speaker 12: he's patient. That one handed catch on the sideline was
• 52:38
  Speaker 12: like happened right in front of me, and it was uh,
• 52:41
  Speaker 12: I mean, it's like.
• 52:43
  Speaker 5: I don't think it's a play I'll ever forget.
• 52:45
  Speaker 12: It was just incredible, and uh it was such an
• 52:47
  Speaker 12: important play too, so to go one handed like that
• 52:50
  Speaker 12: reminded me of a touchdown pass I threw to Jerry
• 52:52
  Speaker 12: Rice against the Jets one time. It was a running play.
• 52:55
  Speaker 12: I audibled. Mike Ulnkran hated when I audibled. I audibled
• 52:58
  Speaker 12: to a pass. I'm like, dude, teammates with Jerry Rice,
• 53:01
  Speaker 12: He's one on one, like, come on, let's just let's
• 53:04
  Speaker 12: give it a run. And it wasn't that open, but
• 53:07
  Speaker 12: it was an amazing, like one handed catch, and it
• 53:12
  Speaker 12: reminded me so much of the catch that JSN had.
• 53:15
  Speaker 12: There's only like maybe a handful of people on the
• 53:17
  Speaker 12: planet that would choose to try that way to catch
• 53:21
  Speaker 12: the ball in that kind of a moment and do
• 53:23
  Speaker 12: it with such you know, no effort, just so confident
• 53:27
  Speaker 12: he's got that infactor.
• 53:29
  Speaker 6: Any concerns going into the super Bowl about the defense,
• 53:32
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't necessarily and I just kind of
• 53:35
  Speaker 6: chalk up, yeah, you give up twenty seven points because
• 53:38
  Speaker 6: that's Sean McVay and Matt Stafford and the Rams have
• 53:40
  Speaker 6: some serious potency when it comes to their offense. But
• 53:44
  Speaker 6: they didn't get a lot of pressure on. They didn't
• 53:46
  Speaker 6: do the things that I was thinking would be important
• 53:49
  Speaker 6: as far as getting a lot of pressure on Matt
• 53:51
  Speaker 6: Stafford with that front four so where they could hold
• 53:54
  Speaker 6: it down. I was thinking it was gonna be far
• 53:55
  Speaker 6: more low scoring, and yet it didn't really matter. The
• 53:58
  Speaker 6: Seahawks offense the bell and did enough but is there
• 54:01
  Speaker 6: any concerns that you saw or was it one.
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: You just chalk up because that's a good offense.
• 54:06
  Speaker 12: Well, it's a great wide receiver matchup in that game,
• 54:08
  Speaker 12: you know, Puka Nakua and Davante Adams and Cooper Cup
• 54:12
  Speaker 12: and Rashichia Heat and JSN like you. It almost helped
• 54:16
  Speaker 12: the Seahawks offense to play a great offense like the
• 54:19
  Speaker 12: Rams because the training wheels were off. We're not playing
• 54:22
  Speaker 12: not to lose, We're cutting it loose. We're like, hey,
• 54:25
  Speaker 12: you get a one on one ticket. You know you
• 54:27
  Speaker 12: saw it on the first third and five with Rashichi Heat.
• 54:29
  Speaker 12: It's like they left in one on one. It's like, dude,
• 54:31
  Speaker 12: green light, you got it. Three to zero pitch swing.
• 54:34
  Speaker 12: We're good.
• 54:35
  Speaker 5: You know that was the mindset.
• 54:36
  Speaker 12: I don't know that that needs to be the mindset
• 54:38
  Speaker 12: against the Patriots, but they're still dangerous, Like they've got
• 54:43
  Speaker 12: a collection of wide receivers that are a problem if
• 54:47
  Speaker 12: you don't have talent in the back end yourself. I
• 54:50
  Speaker 12: think the Seahawks have some talent, you know, Stefan Diggs
• 54:53
  Speaker 12: is the name that everybody knows. But the Patriots have
• 54:56
  Speaker 12: a lot of guys Matt Collins. They got from Buffalo,
• 54:59
  Speaker 12: Kyle Williams third round pick, and I think he's from
• 55:01
  Speaker 12: Washington State.
• 55:03
  Speaker 5: You know, there's some guys.
• 55:04
  Speaker 12: Pop Douglas is there kind of like their slot Julian
• 55:06
  Speaker 12: Edelman type guy.
• 55:08
  Speaker 5: They got some guys, so you know it's not gonna
• 55:10
  Speaker 5: be Drake Young.
• 55:11
  Speaker 12: You know, he was gonna probably finish second place for
• 55:13
  Speaker 12: the MVP behind Matthew, Stafford Hunter.
• 55:16
  Speaker 5: Henry's a great tight end for this team.
• 55:18
  Speaker 12: You know, the Rams tight ends were pretty productive in
• 55:21
  Speaker 12: all the matchups. So no, they're gonna have their handsful.
• 55:23
  Speaker 12: Patriots are a good team, and you know this is
• 55:27
  Speaker 12: a great defense, but you were you know, I would
• 55:30
  Speaker 12: say the thing that concerns me the most is Drake
• 55:32
  Speaker 12: May and his scrambling ability. I think if there is
• 55:35
  Speaker 12: a kryptonite for this Seahawks team that I've seen this season,
• 55:38
  Speaker 12: it's been letting mobile quarterbacks get loose down the field,
• 55:42
  Speaker 12: and that's something that I think needs to be a priority.
• 55:44
  Speaker 8: I don't mean to make Matt Hassebek misty here, but
• 55:47
  Speaker 8: Patriots versus Seahawks. Your father just passed away recently, former Patriot,
• 55:52
  Speaker 8: do you think this is like him speaking to you that,
• 55:56
  Speaker 8: you know, the year after that it's your team against
• 55:59
  Speaker 8: his team in the Super Bowl.
• 56:00
  Speaker 5: Here it is.
• 56:02
  Speaker 12: It is really cool for our family, and especially because,
• 56:06
  Speaker 12: I mean, no one expected this. The Seahawks weren't a
• 56:09
  Speaker 12: playoff team last year, you know. Even more so, the
• 56:12
  Speaker 12: Patriots won four games last year. They won four games
• 56:14
  Speaker 12: the year before, they fired their head coach, their cleaning house,
• 56:18
  Speaker 12: they cut every single one of their captains.
• 56:20
  Speaker 5: They started over.
• 56:21
  Speaker 12: They're like, you know what, let's go with a rookie kicker,
• 56:24
  Speaker 12: rookie long snapper. Like when you do that, you're banking
• 56:27
  Speaker 12: on not playing in any big games typically, and so
• 56:30
  Speaker 12: for the Patriots to be in this game, it's it's
• 56:34
  Speaker 12: really cool for my family, you know. I think the
• 56:37
  Speaker 12: only negative is that you know, most of us, a
• 56:39
  Speaker 12: lot of us are living in Boston catching a flight,
• 56:42
  Speaker 12: Like the price the prices on flights just like went
• 56:45
  Speaker 12: through the roof. But maybe even more brutal is like
• 56:49
  Speaker 12: knowing that you would have to fly with Patriot fans
• 56:52
  Speaker 12: all the way to the West coast, if I'm allowed
• 56:55
  Speaker 12: to say that a kind of guy, you know, looking
• 56:57
  Speaker 12: over my shout.
• 57:03
  Speaker 5: Right behind you, Matt, But yeah, no, it's it's super cool.
• 57:07
  Speaker 12: My old team. It gets my dad's old team. It's uh,
• 57:10
  Speaker 12: it's really it's really neat.
• 57:11
  Speaker 8: Be careful starting your car. Speaking of Patriots. Your reaction
• 57:16
  Speaker 8: to Bill Belichick not getting into the Hall of Fame yesterday?
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: What are we doing?
• 57:20
  Speaker 10: Like?
• 57:20
  Speaker 5: What are we doing?
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 57:22
  Speaker 5: Two options.
• 57:22
  Speaker 12: You can rename it hall of Shame because shame on you,
• 57:26
  Speaker 12: or like abolish it, get rid of it.
• 57:28
  Speaker 5: I actually was thinking about this today.
• 57:30
  Speaker 12: I was brushing my teeth and I like, I don't
• 57:32
  Speaker 12: know why it bothered me so much, but like I'm thinking,
• 57:35
  Speaker 12: like Bill Bei Belichick could literally say, you know what,
• 57:38
  Speaker 12: I'm good, don't don't ever put me in. In fact,
• 57:42
  Speaker 12: I'm gonna start my own hall of Fame. Okay, Like
• 57:45
  Speaker 12: I I know enough. Maybe I'll get some guys to
• 57:47
  Speaker 12: help me or whatever, but like I'm gonna start over
• 57:50
  Speaker 12: and I'm gonna do my own hall of fame like that.
• 57:52
  Speaker 12: That's like I'd be. I'd be behind that. I'd be like, dude,
• 57:56
  Speaker 12: go for it, do your own. Yeah, that's a It
• 58:00
  Speaker 12: kind of reminds me of this. Like at the Combine,
• 58:02
  Speaker 12: they measure hand size for a quarterback and Joe Burrows
• 58:05
  Speaker 12: was like the worst that like the smallest hands ever, Well,
• 58:08
  Speaker 12: he's obviously a great quarterback.
• 58:09
  Speaker 5: Like so, I think we're measuring the wrong thing.
• 58:11
  Speaker 12: And so like Will Campbell, the left tackle for the Patriots,
• 58:14
  Speaker 12: he's had this amazing year, is the first round pick.
• 58:16
  Speaker 12: People weren't going to draft him because they measured his
• 58:18
  Speaker 12: arms at the combine and his arms were too short,
• 58:21
  Speaker 12: they said.
• 58:21
  Speaker 5: And Vrabel was like.
• 58:23
  Speaker 12: Passed, rushed against dudes all the time, never cared how
• 58:25
  Speaker 12: long their arms were.
• 58:26
  Speaker 5: It's not about that.
• 58:27
  Speaker 12: So kind of think with the Hall of Fame in
• 58:30
  Speaker 12: their criteria, however, they're measuring it, you're measuring the wrong thing,
• 58:34
  Speaker 12: Like if Bill Belichick doesn't come out automatic like it
• 58:38
  Speaker 12: like so anyway, I don't know why I'm bothered.
• 58:41
  Speaker 5: By it, but yeah, it's crazy.
• 58:43
  Speaker 12: I think the only way they could make it right
• 58:45
  Speaker 12: is if they renamed it the Bill Belichick Hall of
• 58:48
  Speaker 12: Fame when he goes in, because it's just ridiculous.
• 58:51
  Speaker 8: The yellowjacket now has Bill's face on it from now on,
• 58:55
  Speaker 8: just something like that.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think the criteria are fine.
• 58:59
  Speaker 8: I think the problem is that the individuals voting have
• 59:01
  Speaker 8: these personal agendas and they think that it's their job
• 59:04
  Speaker 8: to impart their own brand of justice on the process.
• 59:08
  Speaker 8: And so I'm going to punish you for this, or
• 59:12
  Speaker 8: you have to wait because that guy waited.
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: Is he a Hall of Famer or not? And that
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: question is very obvious with Bill Bellich.
• 59:18
  Speaker 12: Well, yeah, Mike Sando, formerly of the Tacoma News.
• 59:23
  Speaker 5: Tribune, never heard of him.
• 59:26
  Speaker 12: He wrote a good thing about how in twenty twenty,
• 59:29
  Speaker 12: Dion Sanders, I think it was Deon Sanders complained that
• 59:32
  Speaker 12: too many people were getting in and so they changed
• 59:35
  Speaker 12: sort of the voting method. So it is a little
• 59:37
  Speaker 12: bit unique of how they do it. But that's kind
• 59:40
  Speaker 12: of what I'm saying is like, whatever you're doing, it's wrong.
• 59:44
  Speaker 12: I don't even care, Like whatever your algorithm is or
• 59:47
  Speaker 12: your vote casting system is. If he doesn't come out
• 59:51
  Speaker 12: as a first ballot Hall of Famer, then it's like
• 59:53
  Speaker 12: the Joe Burrow hands thing. It's like, get that out
• 59:56
  Speaker 12: of here. It's a waste of everybody's time.
• 59:58
  Speaker 8: So when are you an affleck and Damon and all
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 8: the Patriot people flying in for the Super Bowl?
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 11: Then next week.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 5: I'm coming in Sunday.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 12: Actually, my daughter, my daughter actually covers this is crazy too,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 12: Like you know, you mentioned my dad. So my daughter
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 12: covers the Patriots on a show called Foxborough Rush here
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 12: at Boston for Nessen, but she also has a show
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 12: called The Seahawks Collective on YouTube that she covers the Seahawks.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 5: So like, these are literally.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 12: Like her two teams, and she works for Sports Spectrum,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 12: so she was gonna be there anyway, So We're either
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 12: gonna have to clone her or I'm gonna have to
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 12: be her intern. I don't know how she's gonna get
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 12: to do it all, but I'm there Sunday through Monday
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 12: and there.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 5: The whole week. Hopefully I get to see you guys
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 5: in person.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh.
• 1:00:42

• 1:00:44
  Speaker 12: middle daughter. She's at Stanford and they open their season
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 12: Saturday before the Super Bowl, So I'm going to that
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 12: game regardless. But other than that, this is uh. I's
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 12: gonna try to stay out of trouble and not getting
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 12: in any fights, and you know, it's just cheer on
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 12: my team.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 8: The Hassle Bowl coming up here in eleven days. I
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 8: just want to say this just personally, Bucky fixed my
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 8: camera during the course of the week. Every Zoom call
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 8: that we've been on with Matt, I've been at the
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 8: very bottom of the screen, and I just it's now fixed,
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 8: and I just want to know how tall did you

• 1:01:40
  Speaker 5: on TV.

• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: my not to brag, but my ticket hookup I still paid.

  Speaker 2: But my ticket hookup is through someone who works for
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: the team. I've never met them. I actually assume it's
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: a variety of people. It's Blitz. Blitz is my ticket
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: hooked up. Wow. I know Adam Ray was in a
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: sweet with Cal Raleigh, but the comedian you guys can

  Speaker 2: ten minutes.

• 1:05:32
  Speaker 8: is he on that ticket with Adam Ray and Cal Raley.

• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: No, I'm I'm a professional touring comedian who's going to
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: be in Raleigh, North Carolina. And my buddy Adam I'll
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: just set every day. I'll just text him and you know,
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: not every day, but we're we're friends, and he's just
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: he's hysterical, like, where are you watching the super Bowl?
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: And he's like, I'm going to be at the game
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: with you know, Jelly Roll? What okay? One one day?
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: I expect him just to get a FaceTime. He's like,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: all right, yeah, I'm watching the game with Barack and Trump.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: I'm like, how do you get those two together? Adam?
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 2: Why does everybody like you so much? You really are
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: bringing everyone together? Adam?
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: Is he like? Is he like you?
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 6: Very optimistic? Always glass half full? While he's watching the Seahawks.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: He he is the polar opposite of me, and that
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: he is actually that well, I am, you know, the
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: most negative Nancy there is, uh, you know, because I've
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 2: I've paid attention over the last forty one years of
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: my life. Genuinely, yeah, genuinely just one of those you know,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 2: I think he I think I think Adam as a
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: kid grew up and walked outside and was like, it's
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: sunny even though it wasn't. He just has an irrational
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: level of joy and happy and optimist optimism that those
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: of us who exist in reality on our side of
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: the matrix no is not true, but I do love
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: that for him.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 8: Comedian Dustin Nickerson is with us here, huge Seahawks fan,
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 8: huge Mariners fan, and joins us again here on Chuck
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 8: and Buck in the Morning. So, considering how difficult the
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 8: game was for you to get through, you know, just
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 8: the twists and the turns, what was your reaction when
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 8: Reek Wollan committed the penalty when it felt like the
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 8: game was over at that point?
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, so we weren't watching the game on TV,
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: and I watched the broadcast last night. I hadn't watched yet,
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: so it was it was genuine confusion and then followed
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: by just just shorts of like full on rioting, And
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 2: so it was because you didn't I don't think you know,
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: that's a rule that's so rarely called, and at at
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: a moment like that, like you went, you really And
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 2: it's funny in the broadcast you catch it too, like
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: we're all listening and we're like, well, I mean, okay,
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 2: it's a taunting penalty. Oh okay, it's there's surely there's
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: no way that they're keeping the ball. They got a
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: full first down out of it. So I don't think
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 2: that anyone in our area was even particularly mad at
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: Reek because we didn't really know what was happening up there.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: But a riot, nonetheless was was about and I think
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: Blitz was going to be leading it. Honestly, Blitz seemed
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: pretty upset. But in the in the moment, you go,
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: is this just the new chapter in the miserable book
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: of Seattle sports?
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 4: Like?
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: Is this the one? Because this one, this one will
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 2: go down as an all timer. But I loved Reek's
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: response to it on Twitter after and you know, and uh,
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: you know, it's it's funny now. It's funny now, it's
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: it's funny now. But in the moment, where like, so,
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: uh he's cut right, all right?
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 6: I gotta ask because I actually love diving into where
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 6: your mind was at that not the last drive after
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 6: she haddle kind of milk the clock, but fourth and four,
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 6: the Rams are knocking on the door.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: They're down by fourth.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 6: It feels like, you know, I think they're on the
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 6: five or six yard it feels like they're going to score.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 6: Where where was your head at there? I'm sure very
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 6: optimistic as well.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 2: I think right at the start of the play, my
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: head was in between my hands, crunched in between my
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: knees physically is where it was. I mean, you get
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: to it. I mean I was. I mean that is.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: Those are tough watches, man, I mean those are just
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 2: like you just I mean. The reality is as a
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 2: fan is you always feel powerless because you are powerless.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 2: You're not you know, you're cheering is your fans. No
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 2: matter what you do doesn't affect the game, but especially
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: when you're on defense for whatever reason, you're just like,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 2: oh my gosh, so it was, I will say, is
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: my I think the key to victory on a superstition
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: level here is taking my son two semi final games
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 2: because the last game that I attended with him was
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: the Sugar Bowl where the Huskies beat Texas, which if
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 2: you remember, ended in a similar way and that we
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 2: were on defense and just waiting for the opp Now
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: Sam Donald gets the ball back and they obviously kill
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: the clock, but a similar like they're driving. I'm in hell.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: This is agony. I can't believe even though Blitz gave
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 2: me a good deal, this is still too expensive of
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: an experience. I should have stated a cheaper hotel. I
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 2: don't deserve joy. None of this was worth it. You, Oh,
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 2: I think we're going to win. It was. It was
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 2: quite a bit, quite a quite a roller coaster. But
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: what a cool moment, man, what a fun moment. Yeah.
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 2: And the good news is I don't ever have to
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 2: take my son to a game again. Like I like
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 2: going to games with them, don't get me wrong, but
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: you know, it's the playoff game is not cheap, especially
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 2: you know he might The odds of us being available
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: were very rare that you know, I work most weekends
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 2: and he's a he's a college athlete down San Jose
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: and and for us both to be free that week
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: and worked out, and I called my wife and I
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: was like, hey, good news, we don't. I don't. I'm
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 2: not on the hook to do this ever again. If
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 2: it works out, great, But he I got a lifetime
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 2: of dad dad points this weekend.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 8: Dustin Nickerson is with us uh, Seattle based comedian joining
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 8: us right here on Chuck and Buck in the mornings.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 8: And so I love the fact by the way that
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 8: you folded Blitz into sitting by you. Not only does
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 8: he the hookup, but when he does hook you up
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 8: with tickets, you have to actually sit by him at
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 8: the games.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody else appreciated that, but I did.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 8: The other thing that I want to ask you is that,
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 8: if I remember the previous game, you were sitting with
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 8: Nate Bargatzi and a bunch of other comedians watching the
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 8: forty nine ers game now ended up being pretty easily one.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 8: But what is the experience like sitting around with a
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 8: bunch of professional smartasses Let's face it, and you're the
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 8: only one that has a vested emotional interest in the game.
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well that was I realized. So we watched that game.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: We were Nate was playing whatever local arena. Oh hold on, everybody,
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: you guys get it. You get to hear me tell
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: the hotel person that I'm not ready. Hello, I'm not
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 2: even gonna mute this. Hey, I have a late checkout.
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah breaks, that's real professionalism right there, Guys. I don't
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 2: mean to brag here, but I am a Titanium Elite
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 2: member with Marriott Bonvoy, which means I get a four
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 2: pm checkout.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: So how dare that guy not.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 2: Listen? I didn't. I didn't. That didn't kill the momentum
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 2: as much as your little check cashing thing you did,
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: But whatever your intro, but it did too he was. Anyways, Yeah,
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 2: we were at we were in Missoula watching that game,
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 2: and uh and that was you knew that was a
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: good game because I was the only one that had
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 2: invested interest, which means I was the only one that watched.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: After like the second quarter, they had all left because
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: they were like, this isn't not an entertaining game, which
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: you know, everyone says the worst super Bowl ever was
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 2: the forty three to eight. That was a pretty comfortable
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 2: viewing experience for me. So that was fun. They were
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 2: they were all into it. They were all good wing men,
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 2: they were all because they didn't really care who won.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: They were all cheered along. But then yeah, I mean,
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 2: certainly by by the second half, it was just me
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: and that in that little Jankie setup that we had.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: Still still sweating a bit, though not nearly as much.
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 1: Imagine if you had to start every set though, by the.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 8: Way, you get Dustin Nicker set and you come out
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 8: there and you got to throw out a key cash
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 8: word for everybody to play a thousand dollars.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: That's how you got to start your set every single time. Yeah,
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: every hour.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 2: Well I will say this as as you know, when
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: I'm playing an arena opening for Neigh Borghetti. I think
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: people are just as interested as hearing from me as
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 2: they are hearing your key cash word.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: I'll think about that. I'll keep it in perspective.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: I might win him over at a couple of minutes. You know,
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: Bucky was there at the old Climate Pledge show. I
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: think eventually they got into what I was saying, But
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 2: at first they, I think, especially looking the way I look,
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: I think they're like, is this some kind of announcement
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: from the venue. It's just what's going on. There's no
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 2: way this is a There's no way this guy's supposed
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: to be up there.
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 6: I was like, I was actually like Nate and the
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 6: rest of your comedian friends that after you were done,
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 6: I left.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: I didn't need to watch anymore.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah no, but you left in protests. You couldn't believe
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 2: you went and demanding a refund, like who was that Nickerson?
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 11: Fella?
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, got my money back. Comedy was up forty
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: one to six in the third quarter. So Bucky just left.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 1: That's what happened that night.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 8: Yeah wow, I praise, high praise, all right, So what's
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 8: the super Bowl plan?
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: So funny enough? I you know, I did this with
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: the UH with the ms too that you know, I
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 2: don't ever really actually plan around what there. I never
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 2: actually make any plans of I mean, remember of my
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: Neptune show. Everyone's like, what if there's a World Series game.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't even think like that. I don't
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: even think there's a chance that the Mariners might be
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: in them. I didn't even cross my mind. So it
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: certainly didn't cross my mind that the Hawks might be
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 2: in the super Bowl. But pretty rarely do you work
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: the super Bowl. It's it's the one holiday that most
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 2: of America agrees on, so you don't have a gig.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: But randomly so like a year ago, UH forgets the
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 2: books this huge comedy cruise where a bunch of US
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 2: comedians are going to be on a cruise performing. So
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: I will be I will be watching that Sea Hawks
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 2: game in the newly deemed Gulf of America, I believe,
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 2: is where we're going to be, which sounds listen to
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: get political here. Sounds is not an exotic sounding name.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 2: You know, Gulf of Mexico has some you know, it
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: sounds tropical. Gulf of America sounds like you're saying America.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: And now It sounds like your neighbor's above ground pool.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: It does not sound like a like a what do
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: we It does not sound like a place you're like, Man,
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 2: I can't wait to get down to Gulf of America.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 2: It's one twenty nine at Walmart. But anyway, that's where
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be. I'm gonna be watching the game in
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 2: international waters. It's the I believe there's a big Super
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: Bowl watching party, which means I will probably watch it
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: by myself in my cabin, and then if we if
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: it towards if there's a moment of celebration towards the end,
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 2: maybe I'll go join the viewing party. But you know,
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 2: these are tense experiences as a fan.
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and you got to watch out for pirates
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: unlike us.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know that is a great point, and I'll
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 2: keep that in mind. The good news is if everything
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 2: goes to hell for the game. Uh, you know, having
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 2: the option to jump overboard is nice. Yeah with that,
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 2: you know, No, that's the points. Fuck, yeah, that's exactly
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: what I'm gooding at here. Yeah, just to be like,
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 2: you know what, it's we had a good run, so
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 2: now it's uh, I will say this, it is a
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 2: very funny Seattle sports experience to go to the Super
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: Bowl and then immediately all the coverage becomes reminding you
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 2: of the worst Seahawks moments, if not Seattle sports moment
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 2: in history. I mean, we have to watch that Malcolm
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: Butler play for two weeks.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeah.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 6: By the way, you will be happy to know Chuck
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 6: and I are going on tour down to Phoenix and
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 6: just so happens to coincide with when you'll be down

• 1:19:08

  Speaker 1: So there you go.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 8: Man, I kind of do want to watch a game
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 8: with him, just and not even because you know, to
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 8: like get closer to him. I just want to see
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 8: how sick he gets, you know, watching the game.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: You know, I think it'll be hilarious. Like I don't
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: want to go with him to the game.
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 8: I want to be the row, like too up from him,
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 8: with like a mustache, fake mustache.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: And glasses on, just just deserving what he goes through.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 8: It's like a wrung out dish rag at the end
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 8: of every game he watches.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 6: It feels like, Yeah, I think it would be very
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 6: I mean, he is an entertaining person. Yeah, I don't
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 6: think he intends to be entertaining as a fan, but
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 6: I guarantee he is.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 8: And you know, the more he worked up he gets,
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 8: probably the funnier that he gets with his misery.
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: That's why he's just not funny. Why did we do this?
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 9: He even said when we had him on for the Mariners, like,
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 9: I don't know if I'm going to be as funny
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 9: when they're good, like when I'm celebrating things still it works.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 8: Uh yeah, but there's all the way up to winning,
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 8: which he's obviously a basket case. So that's fine. You
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 8: can not be funny while we're all celebrating. We don't
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 8: want to listen to your jokes, right then?
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: Anyway?
• 1:22:12

• 1:24:06
  Speaker 8: I mean, wasn't it just a week ago where I
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 8: asked you about getting a number one line that was
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 8: just a sure thing? I mean one week later and goodness,
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 8: Jared McCann's line was automatic last night.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he and Everley and Veneer's gathering up eight points
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 4: last night, all three plus three on the night. They
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 4: were playing like a top line for sure.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, what is it about that top line
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 6: that came to life? Because I mean, it'd be beautiful
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 6: if we've seen that on a regular basis. And I
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 6: don't expect him to go out and you know, put
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 6: up that type of a game necessarily, but that just
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 6: looked like they were skating circles around the capitals most
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 6: of the night.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 4: Well, it starts out with that power play goal that
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 4: McCann got to open the scoring, and you know, the
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 4: cracking had given up the first goal of the game
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 4: of the last nine of nine of the last ten,
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 4: and getting that first goal, though it took to the
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 4: second period, was important, and it was it was Everly
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 4: and Stevenson on the assists that that line's clicking, So
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 4: you get the power play. Obviously, different personnel than than
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 4: the top line. But then they go out and get
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 4: two even strength goals as well, and you can just
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 4: see the way they're playing, where they're anticipating where each
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 4: other is going to be. And and if you put
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 4: a shot on net here, if there's a rebound, I'll
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 4: be in this area. And you know McCann picks up
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 4: a rebound goal, and you know you see everybody cutting
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 4: across the blue line. He gets a great feed from
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 4: Adam Larson on the on the zone exit. Like the
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 4: game almost slows down when you've got the right personnel together.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 4: And that's the way it looked last night.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I had two goals and two assists, and he
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 8: was all smiles afterwards, you know, you know, hurling fish
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 8: up into the crowd and whatnot. But to come that close,
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 8: I mean he had one right off the post. He
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 8: had another one that's a play away from the puck.
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 8: A penalty on Benier's canceled out is hat trick. I
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 8: mean there were hats everywhere on the ice last night.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 8: As happy as he was with the win in his
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 8: performance last night, how frustrating would it be to lose
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 8: a hat trick like two or three times?
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, No, it is frustrating, and I don't think he's
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 4: probably disappointed on the one that went off the pipe
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 4: because everybody ends up finding the rebound and scoring. But
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 4: definitely the breakaway goal that ended up being called up
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 4: called back by the way, like four minutes after it,
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 4: after the penalty happened, which is what they had to review. Ultimately,
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 4: it was a linesman that saw the high stick told
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 4: the referee about it. Once the goal was scored and
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 4: all the hats starting being picked up, they reviewed it
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 4: and the linesman can't blow the whistle to kill the play,
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 4: but he can inform a referee of what he saw.
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 4: That's exactly what happened. The referee looked at it, saw
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 4: that it was a penalty goal goes away. So yeah,
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 4: it's frustrating.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 10: Although I gotta tell you, I was excited to.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 4: See if if Jared McCann was going to get another goal.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 4: Because five thousand people threw their hats away, I'm not
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 4: sure what goes out next if people start firing their
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 4: pants or shoes.
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 2: On the ice.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 8: Yeah, nobody brings two hats to the game. What else
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 8: are you supposed to throw on the ice at that point?
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: But you don't throw your pants on. That's what I
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 1: thought I was supposed to do, could launch a new thing.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: You got a pants trick? Yeah, I like that. I'm down.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 8: Al Kanisky is with us here, color analyst for your
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 8: Seattle Crack and winners last night five to one over
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 8: the Washington Capitals and do it in impressive fashion. So
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 8: that's three out of four wins. And man, I mean
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 8: this team just wins and clumps and loses and clumps.
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 8: Does it feel like they're getting ready to go on
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 8: another heater here to close out the first half before
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 8: the Olympics.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 4: It kind of feels like those few games before the
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 4: Christmas break where they had gone on that low part
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 4: of the roller coaster and they were coming out of it,
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 4: and they went into the break on an upper trajectory.
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 4: And now they've got a game against Toronto tomorrow night,
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 4: then they go on a three game road trip to
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 4: end the pre Olympic break part of the season. Those
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 4: three games next week, Vegas, La and Anaheim are all
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 4: in division and you were chasing these guys. Unfortunately, no
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 4: one did the cracking any favors last night in the standings,
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 4: both La and senose winning, so all three teams are
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 4: at fifty seven points right now, Sennose's in that second
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 4: wild card spot. You need to beat la you need
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 4: to beat Anaheim, you need to beat Vegas next week
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 4: to move yourself up the standings.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 6: Now, what kind of strategy do you expect Lambert to employ.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 6: I mean, you're obviously going through this stretch right now
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 6: where they're fitting all these games in before this big
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 6: break for the Olympics. But I mean, what kind of
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 6: strategy do you expect them to employ going into this
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 6: thing and then throughout it, because not everybody's going to
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 6: be playing in the Olympics for their country, and then
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 6: coming out of it so that they can kind of
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 6: pick up where they've left off, considering they are hot
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 6: right now going into it.
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Beckie, I think the mind said has to be
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 4: as cliche as it is one game to the time,
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 4: but ideally over the next four you win three of
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 4: the four, you win four before you get some momentum
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 4: going to the break, because you're gonna have three weeks
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 4: off for all of those that aren't playing in the Olympics,
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 4: and you want to carry that momentum back into the
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 4: season when you get back. In the case of the guys,
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 4: that are going to the Olympics. You're hoping that they're
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 4: going to elevate their game. They're gonna play with the
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 4: best in the world against the best in the world,
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 4: and you know their swords are gonna get sharpened even
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 4: more and come back and be able to use those. Obviously,
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 4: you hope for no injury, but I think the best
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 4: thing that can come out of it is that those
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 4: guys come back with an elevated game.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 8: Al Kaniski is with us right here on the Chuck
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 8: and Buck and correct me if I'm wrong, because I'm
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 8: really haven't charted it.
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 1: It feels like there are fewer.
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 8: There's a small handful of cracking players that'll be in
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 8: the Olympics. I mean, is it smaller than most about
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 8: the same as most teams in the NHL. I guess
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 8: what I'm as is, Yeah, maybe you didn't get as
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 8: many star players into the Olympics to showcase them. But
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 8: on the other hand, if it gives your roster a
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 8: lot more rest than the other guy, could that be
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 8: a benefit in the second half, well certainly.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 4: And that's that's the other part of it that you
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 4: can strategize around. As far as guys that might be
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 4: fighting some injuries that that they get a chance to recover.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 4: So other than Grubauer, other than Coco, other than Tolvinen
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 4: and Oscar Fiskermoler is the fourth one. He's on Coachella,
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 4: so he'll go as well. For Denmark, you've got seventeen
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 4: other guys that aren't going. So anybody that's got any
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 4: nagging injury issues that just needs you know, a week
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 4: ten days off to get back to one hundred percent,
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 4: they're gonna have a chance to do that. Other teams
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 4: that maybe are sending more guys won't. So you look
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 4: at the teams above you and the Sandings, chances are
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 4: they've got one or two or three more guys. Vegas
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 4: is a good example, they've got seven go into the Olympics.
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 4: Those guys aren't going to get a chance to recover.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 4: So yeah, it could potentially benefit you that way as well.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 6: Al I mean, we've heard some rumors around, you know,
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 6: trade stuff and whatnot. I think we're still a little
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 6: over a month away from the trade deadline. Do you
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 6: expect them to add or is it still in this
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 6: wait and see where you're at in the standings as
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 6: they get closer.
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that all phone calls are being received,
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 4: all conversations are being had. I don't know that the
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 4: Cracking are out shopping anybody. And you know, listen, we've
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 4: all bought cars before. When as soon as you step
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 4: on the lot, you're you're in a negative position from
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 4: a leverage standpoint, So you don't necessarily want to go
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 4: out calling people. You want them calling you. But when
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 4: they do call and they ask about players, you got
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 4: to listen. You've got to understand what they're willing to
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 4: give up to get somebody from the cracket. And then
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 4: you've got to ask yourself, does that put you in
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 4: a better position for potentially a playoff run this year?
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 4: Does that get you in a better position for the
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 4: next two to three years? And you know, that's the
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 4: position I think the crack and are in right now,
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 4: is they're not dialing for dollars, but that that that
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 4: phone is plugged in for sure.
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 10: All right.
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 8: Maple Leafs tomorrow. I mean, they're typically a powerhouse in
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 8: the Austin Matthews era during the regular season, they just
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 8: can't win in the playoffs.
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 1: But this year they're sort of they've slid.
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 8: As a matter of fact, We've heard some talk about
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 8: how they might be massive sellers at the trading deadline.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 8: Is that guy going to be available? I mean, what
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 8: would it take to get an Austin Matthews on this team?
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 4: Well, it would It would take a lot. There'd be
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 4: a lot of players that need to would need to
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 4: get moved. And again, if Toronto calls and says this
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 4: is what it would take to move Austin Matthews or
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 4: anybody off that team, I think you got to listen to.
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 4: You know, team like Toronto that's uh uh four zero
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 4: to one on their last five. They're struggling right now,
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 4: and there's a lot of pressure up in Toronto to
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 4: have good, good teams that if you're not making moves, uh,
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 4: you lose that fan base pretty quick. So I gotta
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 4: believe they might be sellers right now. Who they're selling
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 4: that that that's a tougher question, they answered, But there
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 4: are a lot of good players on that team.
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 1: All right, Al, you know we're going to the super Bowl.
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 1: Have you heard? Have you heard we're going to the
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 1: super Bowl?
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 11: Al?
