• 2:00
  Speaker 2: of his professional wrestling outing with the family last night.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Did you get Did you go home giving each other
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: super lexus? Because that's usually what happened. No, but I
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: did put both the kids in a sleeper hole night.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: It was a nice quiet ride home. You go to
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: sleep anyway.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Well, Gracie is tough boy. She did the whole cogan,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: you know, arm up and then you know when she
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: was about to go out, still up there. She was
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: not going Yeah, she wasn't going out. Easy Bear, on
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: the other hand, total pushover. Okay, he might want to
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: reassess his goals. He has. He has told me now
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: multiple times that he's planning on playing in the big
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: leagues after I'm done playing in the big leagues at
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: twenty nine, because that's when I was done, not because
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I wanted to be done by the way son, because
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: the game told me I was done. He's like, what
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I'm done, then I'm going to go be a pro wrestler.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Okay, and it happens a lot.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm going to do that until I'm fifty.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Is that right?
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Fifty?
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: So thirty twenty one years of wrestling, Yeah, and just
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: just a.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Few years basically. Yeah. Yeah, Well, I think he's planning
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: on doing that, you know here soon, probably starting the
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: big league career here, I don't know, after Little League
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: twelve thirteen or something. Yeah, he's playing on getting there quick.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I don't think he quite understands difficulty in either one
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: of these things. But he's eight. I'm not gonna you know,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be in a cheeriop.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: I think he should think it's all easily at his fingertips.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: He can achieve it all. Yeah, you believe you can
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: achieve well, any thing is possible. Kevin Garnett.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he thinks at this point. And the cool thing is,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: I think there will be some crossover his finishing moves
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: all have to do with baseball.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Oh okay, well that'll make it easy.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So like coming off one of his finishing moves,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: coming off the top rope, but like a head first
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: slide but double punch.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: To the face.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Nice, So the Pete Rose knocked you out type of thing.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, And then he actually thinks another one.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Physics is getting where he's just going to pick the
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: person up by the ankles and swing them into the corner. Okay,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: you know, like a bat. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Homer, the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: human bat move. Yeah, the human bat move like human batflip. Yeah.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: And so I don't have it in me to tell
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: him it's a rough go all the way around, but hey, hey,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: do you think you can do it? Go do it?
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: I get I get why he's sitting there saying all
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: the show heo tani attention. I mean, he's doing two things,
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: but it's in the same word. That's hard. Imagine how
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: big a deal I'll be once I'm a superstar major leaguer,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: and then a long twenty year until I'm fifty careers
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: professional wrestling. Yeah, it's a great plan.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't know if I've Seena did it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Sena just retired, and he's like almost fifty. I'm like, okay, I.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Don't see any holes in the plan. Yeah, get it
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: down and I'm going to tell you I'm taking him
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: to the event. Didn't do anything to like quiet now
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: those goals?
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: No, no, not.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: And I'm surprised you got him to sleep.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's probably plotting out how he's going to start
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: this whole thing.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: So the first half of the drive home went off
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: the turd buckle and giving his stuffed animals headbutts.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: He's like, Dad, when we get home, I want to
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: do a workout. I'm like, what, yep, I want to
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: do some bench press. I gotta get my pecks bigger,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: because I think that's one of the things he noticed
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: was they all have big pecks wrestling most of them.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: He wanted to do some bench press. And then we're
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: getting on ten minutes from home and I hear a yawn.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: I'm like, you're tired. He's like, yeah, I don't know
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: if I'm going to have enough energy to do a
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: workout tonight. Dad, tomorrow tomorrow. Mom goes, you got jiu
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: jitsu tomorrow. He's like, oh, okay. Then Wednesday. I said,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you got baseball on Wednesday.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Okay, we'll figure out a time for the workout.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: You'll get one in it in the next two weeks.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: By professional wrestling practice in there anywhere.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: That must be Sunday. Yeah, because he's booked until then.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: You got to get.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a course provided at the why. Yeah, you
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: know at least some online top turnbuckle. Yeah, yeah, practice.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: He just loves the acrobatics.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: To him, Like, dude, if you are a pro wrestler,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: acrobatics ain't going to be your thing.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: A black belt and professional wrestling, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: something Kate that's achieved.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you that. Yeah. Where you at on that one? Mom?
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Well that's fun fun. I love it, and I could
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: probably talk about it for four straight hours, but we
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: do have some other things to get to here on
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: the radio program. Suddenly our Mariners team, with all of
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: its hype, has turned into a professional wrestling drama scene.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: I don't know who the heel is, but don't go
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: online if you don't want to hear you know your
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: favorite catcher talked about poorly. Yeah, because cal Rawley has
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: kind of stepped in it. I guess with some Last
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: night during the WBC game against Mech Mexico, he's catching
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Randy a rose Arena comes to the plate. Randy a
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Rosarina wants to say hello, wants to give knuckles to
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Cal Raleigh before a bat, and Cal just stone cold
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: denied him. Nope, we're not teammates right now. Therefore I
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: am not going to shake your hand.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: And it's caused all sorts of anger on social media.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: How dare you disrespect a teammate like that? I don't
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: care if it is WBC and at the time, you're
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: wearing different uniforms, and so we got a we got
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: a controversy on our hands here before the season even
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: gets started. Courtesy of the WBC.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I don't know, I don't fully understand the
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: crazy negative it's a it's not a good look. I
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: mean the look just on the surface. You see Randy
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: reach out to like shake hands or give knuckles or
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: whatever he's wanting to do. I think he wants to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: shake hands, and and Cal just kind of denies it,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and he says something to him. He said something. Apparently
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Randy did not was not pleased with it. So I
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: basically went to bed last night, thinking well, it's not
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: a beef. It's just we're getting ready to compete. We
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: can shake hands and play grab ass afterwards. It used
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: to be back in the day you would get in
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: trouble for fraternizing with every team you like. Nowadays, I
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: don't know if you saw. I think it was Puerto
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Rico and Dominican, like they had like a sore out
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: behind second base before the game, Like everyone hugged everyone.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: It was a full blown, you know, session, like a
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: party they had out there like that. Used to be like, no,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: it's it's game time. I played with plenty of buddies
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: like that. I was really good friends with whether I
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: played with them before we were teammates. At one point
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: when we were going against each other right before the game,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: there was no there was no hey, buddy, what's up.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: It was we're playing and then afterwards, we're gonna go
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: out and have some beer. So I didn't think there
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: was much of it. Now it seems that Randy was
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: not happy about it afterwards and had some words where
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: I didn't think there would be beef. I thought it
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: would just be no, they we're getting ready to compete
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: against one another, and I guess. I don't know. If
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: there is some beef there that's not necessarily a good thing,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: I think they'll be able to squash it just simply saying, hey, dude,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: we were getting ready to go out here in battle
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: on another you know this isn't this isn't fun and games.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Then again, on the flip side of it, not a
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: whole lot is going to be heard it to reach
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: out and shake his hand. I will also say, I
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: don't know if there was something said amongst players like hey,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: let's make this serious. I don't think that they would
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: have to say that, or that they would have some
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: email go around. But I know there was one another
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: one with Randya rose Arena earlier this WBC. It might
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: have been with Harry Ford against Great Britain where he
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: reached out same thing leading off a game, reached out
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: to shake hands and the catcher for the opponent for
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: the other team was like, nah, no, not right now,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: not right now to do it. And so I don't
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: think it's anything against Randya Rosorina specifically, but I know
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: it's happened twice to him just in this w.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: Well to your point, I mean that was the old
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: school mentality and that's just it. It depends on how
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: you were raised in baseball, and if you were taught.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, if Cal's dad, who hugged Randy in the
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: hotel just earlier in that day when they ran across
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: each other, if Cal's dad tells Cal, hey, when you're
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: between those lines, if that's how he was raised, he's
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: gonna handle it differently. And who knows if Mark de
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Rosa said something. Who knows what the marching orders were.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: I know you're going to be facing your teammates, but
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: we're about winning a gold medal, and I don't want
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: to hear any see any grab ass who knows what
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: fed Col's actions yesterday. But there could be a very
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: good explanation, And there could be that explanation might have
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: already been given overnight to Randy, and maybe things have
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: already smoothed over all of that said, I didn't like it.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: I didn't like that look for Cal. I don't I
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: think that you can put your game face on and
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: in an exhibition tournament see a teammate. I would have
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: liked to see him stand up and like pat him
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: on the butt, I mean, just to show we're boys.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: But then you turn the page and then you get serious.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: I didn't like it. I wish you would have just
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: done it, because I personally, as a fan, like to
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: see that sort of thing in a baseball game. It's
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: not the World Series we're talking about the WBC. I
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: mean we're being We're having family members ripped apart and
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: then having to face one another when they were just
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: sharing a clubhouse five days earlier. So I think those
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: rules go out the window for me in that situation,
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: and I prefer to see cal Rawley actually acknowledge this
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: is my guy. You know, I can pat him on
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: the butt, I can stand up, and then I can
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: get behind the plate and we can try to strike
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: him out. That said, those that have anger towards Cal
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: on the internet, you clearly don't follow the Mariners and
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: you have some sort of political agenda going on right
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: now because you are out of your fing mind if
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: you think cal Raley is an a hole like some
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: of you are accusing him of being. He is the nicest, purest,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: coolest superstar in the history of professional sports. He is
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: as good as it gets. He's the type of guy
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: that we want to root for. You want your kid
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: to have his Jersey number, and he will smooth things
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: over for Randy. So all this vitriol that's existing right
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: now on social media, I'm just going to chalk it
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: up to you being ignorant and not idiotic. You're just
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: ignorant to who you're talking about, because you are out
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: of your mind if you're going to go from he
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: snubbed Randy or Rose Arena with a handshake and a
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: WBC game before in it back to Cal Raley's the
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: worst person on earth. Calm the f down.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Well, And I think that's why I when I brought
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: it up yesterday, like that's what hurt me, I was like, Oh,
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: it's Cal. I just don't want that for Cal, because
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: he is such a nice guy, such a leader. I
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: would have, like you said, I would have at least
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: liked to see him, like just put his glove up,
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: give a little tap something to acknowledge him. I obviously
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: we saw he said something to Randy. Apparently he said
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: nice to see you. Randy really did not like that,
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: apparently because he told him he could shove it somewhere
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: or said that in this postgame rant about it. I
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: just the one thing you don't want as a Mariners
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: fan is there to start off the season with any
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: animosity between any of the guys in the clubhouse? Right,
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: You definitely don't think you're gonna get any of that
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: in the WBC. And I do think that if it
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: was somebody other than Randy, they might not have taken
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: it so personally. But Randy, I think, tends to overreact
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: at times, and this is a situation where I think
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: he's overreacting to the situation. But I wish that Cal
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: would have at least seemed like, well, that's Randy. He
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: might I don't want to make him mad, because he can,
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: he can get a little angrier than some people.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: And then just tapped him up. And look, I think
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: this is important to state as well. Do we really
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: know what Randy's mindset was in that interview? Yes, I
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: think he did say Cale can shove it or go
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: to Hell or something like that. Yeah, and maybe he
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: is angry. Maybe he is angry. I mean, Randy or
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Rose Arena is an emotional player and he has not
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: always had great relationships with those in the clubhouse. Yeah,
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: now that maybe he did ruffle the feathers. Maybe Randy
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: was embarrassed and he took it personally, and he stewed
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: the entire game and could not wait to throw him
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: under the bus. But there was also a little bit
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: of a ry smile on his face. And there is
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: a cultural gap. And I mean, are we interpreting it
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: one hundred percent the way that Randy meant it? Maybe
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: that was him saying, as a WBC player with a
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Mexico jersey on, he can go to hell.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, do that to me.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Maybe he wasn't as serious and nasty as what he
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: what it sounded like, because he did sort of bucky.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: He had this little grin on his face as he
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: was saying it, and in the same breath he was
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: talking about how much he loves Cal's parents for goodness sake.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: So I don't know, maybe it's much to do about nothing.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Maybe Randy sort of understood where Cal was coming from.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: And he's not as angry as what people interpret him.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: I guarantee he's not as angry as it came across
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: just based on the words, right, I mean, it's all
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: translated down to, yeah, he can go to hell, or
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: he can stick that stick that good to see you
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: up his butt or whatever. I mean, it's there is
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a rice mile I can, I mean,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: none of us. Like everybody's put their hand up for
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: a high five and you get left hanging right and
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: it's kind of embarrassing, right if people see it. You
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: don't want to do that on national TV and keep
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: doing there. And so I think that they'll probably have
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: a little bit of something if they haven't already, like
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: some sort of that's not cool, dude, leave me hanging
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: right there in front of the world. On the flip
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: side of it, I can guarantee you it is just
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: it's just as simply it's based simply on on how
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: are you raised and what are you thinking? Like when
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: do you get into game mode?
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I mean I see guys bs in at first base
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: in the middle of playoff games and I'm like, how
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: are you? I mean, I would talk to guys at
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: first base, but I was trying to get in their head.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I was trying to I was trying to get them
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: out of what they're doing. Josh Naylor talks about I
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: don't talk to guys at first base. I'm thinking about
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: what I'm doing. That's why he can steal thirty bags
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: when he's slow, you know, is he's thinking about things
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: that are going on in the game. This isn't it's
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: weird because it's an exhibition, it doesn't really count. But
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: in a way it counts more than most certainly more
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: than some regular spring training game that you would be
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: playing against a buddy of yours. So I mean, I don't.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: Drawn Kala draw on the lines of competition.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's it. And if he doesn't, if he if
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: he thinks that it was a slight then yeah, maybe
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: they'll have a conversation about it. It is not going
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: to be beef in the clubhouse. I don't think there's
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: not going to be any And I saw some other
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: people talking about, well, he didn't want to get pine
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: tar in his hands, you know, give the ball, so
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: schemes would have pine tarn like that is just absolutely ridiculous.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: You know, he would love to get pinetar in his
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: hands and put that on the ball to give to scheme. So,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, the whole thing is a bit of an overreaction,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: which is social media in and of itself is typically
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: going to be an overreaction if there's any seriousness to
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Randy Rosea being irritated or bitter about it. I guarantee
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: it gets smoothed over because it's and by cow, yes,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: by cow, because it is just simply a I drove
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: line where my competition starts. And it isn't when the
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: first pitch is being thrown. It's when I step on
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the field and we're getting ready to stay play ball.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: It's you know, we're not teammates at this point in time,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: even though even though you are, so it's a bad look.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: I wish that he hadn't done it as well.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: I just wish he would have done it. I get it.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, but there is old schoolman. I mean, Jackie
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Robinson quit before he put he got traded to the Giants,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: and he was like, nope, I quit.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: No.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's the old school mentality is like no,
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: I do hate them, I do hate the opponent. And
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: so and I know that Kyl doesn't hate Randy, and
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: I know he doesn't hate Mexico. But if you know,
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: if his head that you have to draw the lines
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: of competition beforehand, and that includes not fraternizing even with
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: friends and teammates of your major league team, then so
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: be it. There were a lot of people by Mike
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Cameron responded on social media with laughy face like emoji's,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: like he thought it was hilarious. So there are a
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: lot of old school people that saw Cal's snubbing of
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Randy in that moment as hilarious. Dudes drawn the lines
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: of competition. Obviously a lot of other people, though, were offended.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was interesting to watch just to see
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: how people got so bothered by it.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: I kept looking for another video of a different angle
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: because I wanted to see Randy's face after it, to
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: see if he was like smiling or you know, kind
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: of giving that like half smile that you were talking about,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: to see how he had reacted to it. And I
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: wish I would have known what Cal said, but you
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: could see that Cal said something pretty lengthy to him
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: not and it was and it seemed good nature, just
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: like hey man, you know whatever you could assume you
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: would say. It didn't seem like anything of like where
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: enemies are? You know, shove it up your butt? And
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: so I don't know. I think it all got blown
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: way out of proportion on social media, for sure, But
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: then it is hard to see Randy tell him to
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: go to hell in two languages and then shove it
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: up his butt in another language, I mean or not
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: you know, into the Cubans, the Mexicans in English. When
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: he says I'm going to say this in four languages,
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It is hard to fix.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: You don't know.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Maybe he's being cheeky himself. Maybe that's his version of
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: snubbing him, and he's trying to, you know, tongue in
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: cheek it. I mean, who knows. And even if he's
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: not to Bucky's point, it'll get smoothed over. If Cal's
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: a leader at all, he will reach out to Randy,
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: and maybe he already has and say, dude, that was
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: nothing personal. That was just me getting into game mode.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: I love you. Can't wait to win a World Series
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: with you. I'm gonna buy you a watch. Well, something
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: like that will be done and it will be fine.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: I thought there was a lot bigger concern of them
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: last year.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, talking by each other. Yeah.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Then I'm I'm worried or bothered by what I saw
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: last night. And maybe it won't be the end of it.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Maybe there'll be some other examples of this going forward.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what's on tap for the
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: rest of the show today. What's on TEP.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: What's on TEP.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Well, I wasn't planning on that being such a big
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: topic today because we have a football show planned for
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: you today, Tampa Fest Crazy Day number one. We'll recap
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: it with Greg Bell from the Seahawks perspective at seven
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: o five and then at eight o'clock we clear the
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: decks for our NFL insider, Mike Sando is coming into
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: studio from the Athletics. So two hours with Mike recapping
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: day number one, keeping you up to date with what's
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: going on in day number two two, and also trying
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: to figure out how the Seahawks plug the holes. So
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: we're going to have a lot of football talk. It's
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: a free agency fringy frenzy specialty tampering show starring Mike
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Sando today here on Chuck and Buck in the Mornings.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: Raiders went nuts yesterday in free agency. So did the
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Titans to a degree. The Rams had another active day,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: adding another good defensive player to their secondary. Meanwhile, the
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: forty nine ers signed Mike Evans. All things that we'll
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: discuss with Mike Sando. Cracking are in action against the
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: Predators tonight. They are at home the Crack and I
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: thought for sure, with this kind of gap in the schedule,
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: they were heading on the road, but nope, it's at
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Climate Pledge Arena this evening. So we're gonna wake up
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Everett a little bit earlier today. He'll join us at
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: seven point thirty. We'll talk about the addition of Bobby McMahon,
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: me and Bobby McMahon and whether or not McMahon is
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: scheduled to make his debut for the Crack and tonight.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: College basketball Big Tourney starts today at two pm. The
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Big Ten Tourney, I should say, and you dub won't
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: play until tomorrow at eleven thirty am against USC. Meanwhile,
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: the Zags did win last night. They took out in
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: the WCC Oregon State sixty five to fifty six. Meanwhile,
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: Saint Mary's was upset by Santa Clara seventy six to
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: seventy one. So the conference tournament championship game will be
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: played tonight between the Zags and Santa Clara at six pm.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: And if you're wondering if there's a lot on the line,
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: might be for Santa Clara. According to Joe Lonardi, they
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: are one of the last four in in his bracketology. Meanwhile,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: despite the Los Saint Mary's is in easily according to Lenardi,
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: and we know the Zags are in easily right now.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: He has them as a four seed in his bracketology selection.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Sunday is in five days, so March Madness is nearly here.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: And from the WBC, US did win the game last
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: night five to three against Mexico, but it wasn't easy.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Kind of like to have that Jared Durant on our
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: team this year. They'll take on the US that is
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Italy tonight at six o'clock. So we'll see if Cal
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: snubs dominant can zone and Miles Master Bony tonight he
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: will fine or he'll just like bear hug them. He'll
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: go the other way, the other extreme. All right, Coming
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: up next though, we recapped Tampafest Day number one. What
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: did the Seahawks do? What did they not do? You
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: probably already know, so we'll provide analysis. Sports Radio ninety
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: three point three kJ RFM two of Tampafest. We got
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: experts on the hook for the rest of the radio program,
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: and I was sure we're going to leave the show
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: with this, but instead we slotted into our second segment
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: of the day, a recap of what happened for the
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Seahawks yesterday as free agency began, tamper style, and so
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Seahawks did say goodbye to Ken Walker, he's a Kansas
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: City chief now, to Kobe Bryant, he's a Chicago Bear
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: new now. And also to boy A Mafe who is
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: a Cincinnati Bengal now. Can talk about all of those
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: guys here in a moment. The guys that they retained
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: were Josh job on a three year, twenty four million
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: dollar contract and Rashid Shahed on a three year, fifty
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: one million dollar contract. So both of those guys will
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: be back in a Seahawk uniform. The Seahawks have yet
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: to add any new face to the roster in the
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: free agency process, but obviously there's still a lot of
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: time in order to do that. I guess the way
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: to start the conversation is to state the obvious. I mean,
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: if you listen to any of our build up to
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: NFL free agency, you know what my takeaways are. I'm
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: surprised that Rashid Shaheed's back at seventeen million. I would
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: have balked at fourteen million, which was the original prognosis
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: for his value on the free agent market to end
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: up at seventeen million seems a little high for a
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: guy that was mainly a putt returner for were you?
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: And then I'm I surprised that Kobe Bryant is not here.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: I thought that the Seahawks at that price, at that value,
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: would have fought harder to keep Kobe Bryant and keep
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: him from becoming a Chicago Bear. So those are the
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: headlines to me, those are the two surprised moves. Walker
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: doesn't surprise me at all.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we weren't surprised, I think by Walker going and
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: getting his money and somebody wanted to pay him, you know,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: some big money. I mean, the Chiefs are like, well
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: that'll change the way in which we're doing things, and so,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: you know, good for him to go get what he got.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I don't know where it was or why necessarily I
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: changed from you know, hearing Greg, and Greg was saying
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: from the get go that Rashid Shiheed was a priority
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: for this team to go out and get. And yet
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: somewhere along the line, like my mind just kind of
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: went to like, they're not going to do that. They're
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: not going to pay that much for a guy that's.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Well, even Greg changed his mind when they were talking
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: about fourteen million dollars.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: No, they're not going to do that.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he ended up going for seventeen per year
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: and they.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Did it right, and so I was surprised. I was
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: very surprised at that number. I didn't think that they
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: would go to that number. But that's not a number
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: you're You're not doing that because he returns punts and kicks.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: You're doing that because you think he can help you
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: on the offensive side. And that last year was just
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: a tip of the iceberg as far as what he
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: you think he can bring to the table as a whole. So,
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: I mean it's a big that's a big sign. I
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: was surprised, to say the least. I mean, that's a
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: way more than what I thought based on his numbers.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: And then the fact that you do have a guy
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: kind of waiting in the wings and Tory Horton. Now
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: he's not completely healthy. I guess he should be healthy
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: by training camp, but he wasn't healthy at the end
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: of last year. So some depth there they have, without
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: a doubt, at the wide receiver position.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was definitely surprised by Kobe Bryant and he
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: got what thirteen million about per year from Bears. I
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: think the Seahawks could have done it, but I think
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: when we were talking about we were talking about nine
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: million ish or something quite a bit lower. I could
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: be wrong, but that was what was sticking in my
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: mind yesterday. So that one surprised and hurt my heart
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: a little bit. That he was gone. Walker didn't surprise
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: me at all. Boy, I'm mafe. Getting twenty million dollars
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: a year really surprised me. But you had said he's
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: gonna you know, these guys are gonna get overpaid. They're
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl champions, And sure enough that happened. And then
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: as far as the Shaheed thing goes, I get it
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: just based on the you know what, it seems like
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: they would want to use him as And I was
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: listening to something yesterday talking about how he had I
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: think about five hundred yards when the first half of
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: the season in New Orleans. So you know, if he
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: was on pace for eighty seven receptions and just under
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: a thousand yards for the season had he stayed in
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: New Orleans, then I mean, you've got a good receiver
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: if you just actually utilize him in the offense in
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: a different way. So I'm excited to see what they'll
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: do with him.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do believe that. I mean, they're not bringing
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: him back to play like he did a year ago.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: It is, yes, the punt returning, the kick returning, and
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: how important it was to the team certainly, but I
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: got to envision a much bigger role. Yeah, I mean
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: what we got to keep in mind too, is I mean,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Cooper Cup was fine for us this past year, and
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: I don't and Washington, Cooper Cup is beloved, but Cooper
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: Cup isn't anywhere close to the receiver that he was
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. I mean not even close.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: And by that, by that outlook probably is going to
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: decline a little bit more going forward. So I would
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: imagine Rashid Shaheed's gonna have a much bigger rule. Not
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: to mention, you know, if JSN, you're going to have
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: a number one wide receiver, number one that dominant. The
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: value of being able to clear people out is exceptional
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: for a guy that is so fantastic at working in space,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: So you need to create space for him to do
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: his magic. And maybe you don't get to do that
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: without a deep threat. Maybe there's some horton injuries that
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: there's a little bit of an injury history there. Maybe
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: it's just not as easy as counting on Tory Horton
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: to step up into that role. So, I mean, we
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: talked about it a lot in training camp before the
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: season started. It was one of Hugh Millen's biggest question
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: marks about the team. Where's the guy to take the
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: top off of the defense? And the Seahawks acted like,
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: we're not that worried about it. And yet what did
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: they acquire at the trading deadline is somebody to at
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: least keep the defense honest. So there's value there. There's
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: value in the punt return. I think there's value in
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: the person that he is and the clubhouse member that
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: he is. I think they absolutely loved him. Still, all
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: that said, and I expect him to have a bigger
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: role catching the football over the course of the next
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: three years than what we saw in twenty twenty five.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Still that being said, man I thought fourteen million was crazy,
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: and then when it got to eighteen I'd pretty much
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: just walked away from Rashidshai, like that's not going to happen.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: He's gonna be a raider, He's gonna be something else,
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: and so for them to grab him, I mean, I
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: don't think it was we were planning to get Kobe
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Bryant and now he's lead being and now, oh gosh,
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: we don't want to lose them all. I don't know
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: if it was that, but it does feel like a
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: lot more than I thought that he was worth on
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: the open market. I'm with you the I mean you
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: got to figure, okay, either top tier guys or forty
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: million dollars, thirty five million dollars, thirty million dollars. So
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, seventeen is a bargain if you think you're
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: getting a legit number two. Now, his numbers up to
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: this point, I think, you know, Ashley was talking like
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Hugh mentioned, the numbers aren't haven't been exceptional.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: But I don't know for sure if he's been used
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: the way in which he's capable of being used.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: And you have a new OC this year, right, who knows?
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: Maybe Brian Floores's plan is I'm going to use the
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: f out of that guy.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: Right, who knows? Well? I mean the fact that he's
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: you know, he's got top end speed as far as
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: like top end wide receiver, take the take the top
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: off of a defense that does things, just a threat
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: of that does things now not it obviously does things.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Also when you he does take the top off and
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: you complete it and it's a it's a sixty yard touchdown.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: He brings that to the table. I think that they
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: see a lot of things in him that they were like, boy,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: what we got out of him last year in a
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: short amount of time where he had to come in
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: and try to figure out what was going on mid season.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: They're thinking that there's a lot of growth off of
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: that makes sense to me where you would go with it.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: It's seventeen just as bigger. It's a bigger number than
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: what I thought his he would get. But then again,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: if you just think about all the free agent signings,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I mean they all are. I mean, there's a couple
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: of them that I'm like, that seems like a good deal,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: like fifty. The rest of them are like what. But
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: so I guess that's just the nature of the beast.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Like every year and I'm seventeen million bucks right now
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: seems like a lot for a guy that you know
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: is going to be your number two receivers. Not definitely
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: not You're not signed him to be your number one,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: and we're gonna find that out when JSN signs, it's
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: gonna be he's.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: At fifty million a year, and it'll look like, oh, okay,
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: that's the going rate for exact number three receiver.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: And that's just the math. That's the NFL math and
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: the way in which it works and changes from year
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: to year. You don't know exactly what somebody's worth it.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: You're worth what somebody's willing to pay you. And I'm
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: guarantee John Schneider didn't, you know, didn't have feelers out
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: there and everybody else was thinking, I think we can
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: get Rashi chat for twelve and he's like, I'll go seventeen.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: You know, I guarantee that there was already conversations being
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: had and he knew what his agents were going to
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: look for and they went to where they needed to go.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Well, if you, like me, thought it was a little
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: bit more than he was going to fetch, well I'll
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: say this Josh Job was less than I thought he
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: was going to get. There were cornerbacks that were signed
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: before Josh Job that were up well over ten million
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: dollars per year who I don't think were any better
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: than Josh Job, and the Hawks got him back for
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: three years twenty four. So if you did overpay for Shaheed,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: maybe you got a deal for Josh Job. Sounds like
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: Josh Job really wanted to come back and be a Seahawk,
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: did not want to leave Mike Donald's side. And I
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: understand that we still don't know about Rik Wolland, but
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: we do know that there are holes to fill, and
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: we'll see how the Seahawks go about it when we
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: come back on the other side. We'll talk about how
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: you fill that running back hole where Ken Walker is
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: no longer here. Sports Radio No. Ninety three point three
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: kJ RFM. Damn me for my mistake right there. I
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: didn't mean to mistake you for a hole.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: Are you surprised I didn't pick up on that one. No,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: I didn't know it was garbage or the song was named.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Whole, the band as whole. Oh okay, yeah, Holy Lewis
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Lewis Okay, Yeah, that's Courtney Love, Courtney Love. Oh yeah,
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: not to be mistaken for garbage ever, Okay, I'll tell
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: you at all. I do like the response Greg Bell
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: at seven oh five headlines at seven o'clock, we do
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: have a hole and it's garbage. We don't have a
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: running right now. How are the Seahawks going to fill
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: it here in the coming day. Something tells me they're
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: not all that worried about it. Kenneth Walker is now
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: a Kansas City chief, and something tells me John Schneider
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: and Mike McDonald to have a pulse that has not
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: raised over this particular issue. But certainly we are trying
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: to figure out who's going to carry the ball for
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks next year. I can almost guarantee they're going
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: to draft a running back. I think they will end
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: up with more than four picks before all the said
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: and done. I doubt they're going to draft in the
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: first round, so I would imagine it'll be a Day
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: two running back once they fill their stores with more
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: second and third round picks between now and draft days.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: So I think that's something they're certainly going to do.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: But I think they'll add a veteran as well. How
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: crazy will they get? Let's discuss one name that certainly
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: has been thrown out there is Alvin Kamara. The New
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Orleans Saints added Travis Etn yesterday, added him for even
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: money than what ken Walker had in terms of long
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: term and so Alvin Kamara doesn't seem to have a job.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Alvin Kamara also is no longer Alvin Kamara three point
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: six yards per carry. Last year, he had four hundred
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: and seventy one yards on the season and only had
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: five point six yards per catch, like just across the board,
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: like devastatingly all time lows for Kamara, who at age
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: thirty might have hit that wall. Or at age thirty
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: is playing on the worst team he's ever played for,
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: and teams aren't going to let Alvin Kamara beat them.
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: And maybe he does have a little bit left in
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: the gas tank and you can get him for dirt cheap.
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: Probably would have to give up a seventh round pick.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, most people think he's just
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: going to be waived and entered into free agency. But
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: if you didn't want to risk that, you wanted to
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: trade for him, you can probably get him for a
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: seventh round pick.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Today, he seems like I mean, I've always liked him,
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: but then again, he was crazy. I mean, I probably
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: run it through the filter of having him on my
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: fantasy league a few times and catch him out of
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: the background. Yeah, so I think that he does have something.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: He does bring something. You're very rarely are you going
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: to be out there looking for even if it's in
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: the draft. You're not looking for somebody that you're going
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: to hand the ball to thirty times. You're looking for
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: a piece to the running back puzzle and you've got
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: to fill who the number one spot is, or the
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: one A or one B, whatever it might be. Hoping
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: that Charbonny comes back and is the same guy that
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: you had there, I think he could bring something to
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: the table. I would be interested based on where the
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: new offensive coordinators coming from. Having watched Christian McCaffrey catch
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: the ball out of the backfield and be as effective
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: as he is, Alvin Kamara can do that. I mean, yeah,
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: you're right, the numbers were way down, but he was hurt.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: He maybe has lost a bit of a step. But
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: as a as an option where I think that that's
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: where they're going to go. They just weren't going to
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: go out there and say we're paying top of the
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: market free agent money. I don't think they're going to
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: do that. Period. You can find a guy that you
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: think can be a contributor and then if you get
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: more out of him, great If not, then you're obviously
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have somebody else in the mix contributing as well.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: Well, if you want to clearcut RB one, I mean,
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: pay the freight for Devin h Chan from Miami. I mean,
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: how exciting would it be to add him to this
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: offense offense with his explosive, big play making ability. And
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: he's not some smurf. He'll run between the tackles. As
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: a matter of fact, Mike McDaniel ran in between the
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: tackles way too much so far in his early career.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: But the Dolphins are clearly rebuilding. He's only got one
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: year left on his deal. You probably have to give
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: up a third round pick, maybe a second round pick
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: in order to get him. But that solves the running
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: back issue. Yeah, right there, we're not worried about running
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: back anymore.
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: Right, and then you still get Zach Sharboney back at
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: some point in the season, so yeah, you're you're set.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: And then you draft a bruiser kind of you know,
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: one b running back, change of pace rookie, you do that,
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: So that's an option Josh jacobs I mentioned last week,
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: may be able to get him on the cheap. Of course,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: he comes with a really big salary. Joe Mixons a
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: free agent, Rashad White's a free agent. Isaiah Pacheco as
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: a free agent might kick the tires on that. Something
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: tells me, I doubt anyone on that list is going
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: to be a Sea Hawk, but I will throw some
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: name out there at you. As a matter of fact,
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: I feel pretty good about this one. Keaton Mitchell. Keithon
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: Mitchell is the speedback that just hasn't been able to
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: stay healthy with the Baltimore Ravens. But in terms of
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: you know, when you watch him play and he gets
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: in the open field, I mean there's juice. Like there's
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: juice and few running backs out there. And so where
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: did Mike McDonald come from. He came from Baltimore, where
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: I know they loved him. In Baltimore, they just couldn't
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: keep him healthy. And suddenly Derrick Henry was demanding twenty
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: five touches a game. But they're going to release Keith
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: Mitchell in Baltimore this week. He's going to become an
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: unrestricted free agent. He's not like your number one workhorse
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: kind of guy. But if you do draft a number
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: one workhouse a workhorse type of guy, and then Mitchell
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: is your speed change of pace. That's pretty interesting. Think
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: you could get him financially on the cheap. He's just
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: looking for an opportunity to show what he can do.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: And maybe Mike McDonald, who remembers him from his Baltimore days,
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: maybe there's an affinity there.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Who knows. Yeah, I would be willing to bet that
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: he you know, he knows well, he definitely knows him,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: And you're right, he is fast. I can remember watching
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: him kind of break loose a couple different times. He
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: hasn't gotten a ton. I mean, I don't know if
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: he's even been a starter yet. I mean, he just
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: is a guy that gets a couple of snaps in there,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: you know, doesn't play a whole heck of a lot.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: But I think that's the way in which they're going
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: becoming the starter in Baltimore. Before they got Henry, and
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: then he got hurt right as he was starting to
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: ramp up, and then he's been rehabbing and sitting behind
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: Henry ever since.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Well it'd be interesting to see. I mean, I
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: think that's the way that they're going to address it
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: is basically some sort of approven commodity which maybe they're
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: hope and still has some gas in the tank, maybe
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: another guy like this that they think hasn't reached his
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: potential yet, and then drafting somebody they're gonna have. I mean,
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: the running back room right now maybe feels like it's
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: not doesn't have anything, is it? The Jacardia? Is that
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: how Jaccardia right that kind of was out there last year,
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: that's in house at this point in time, They're gonna
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: have options. It's not like they're they're just like, oh wow, well,
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: I guess we just don't have a running back at
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: this point. They have some guys that they like, and
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: they're just not gonna spend the big money on them.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: All right, Greg Bell, we'll inform us next our Seahawks
