- 0:32Speaker 1: I don't know if it's Minnesota, Ken, I think it's Minnesota.
- 0:34Speaker 2: This. I think it's a combination of both.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Once again, you know, it's pretty awful out there, yea.
- 0:38Speaker 1: And it's a campfire. It's a it's a it's oppressive.
- 0:42Speaker 1: We go from the blast furnace of ninety nine degree
- 0:45Speaker 1: temperatures to now you can't breathe the air. It's it's
- 0:48Speaker 1: the temperature is tolerable and now you can't breathe outside,
- 0:51Speaker 1: which sucks. Yeah, it's pretty brutal. Yep, we're getting through
- 0:54Speaker 1: that together burers made their trade. We've got some good
- 0:58Speaker 1: stuff holstered up for you today.
- 1:00Speaker 2: A seems to be a little bit of a question
- 1:02Speaker 2: when the smoke's gonna end to that's the problem.
- 1:04Speaker 1: I don't know soon enough to me. Oh yeah, you know,
- 1:08Speaker 1: I can tolerate. I don't mind the heat. I like heat.
- 1:10Speaker 1: I like hot weather. And we always talk about people
- 1:12Speaker 1: who work outside whether it's hotter or it's cold. Well,
- 1:14Speaker 1: if you're working outside today, that sucks because of the smoke.
- 1:17Speaker 1: It's a different level of not being able to breathe. Yeah,
- 1:19Speaker 1: and it's a it gets it's and you can't escape it.
- 1:22Speaker 1: And even now I'm inside in the air conditioning. Yeah,
- 1:24Speaker 1: and it's in my throat, it's in my you know,
- 1:26Speaker 1: it's tickling the sinuses in the throat, it's in the
- 1:28Speaker 1: back of the throat. It's awful, pretty uncomfortable, no question
- 1:31Speaker 1: about it. It's give me the heat over this anytime,
- 1:34Speaker 1: as long as the air is clean. That AQI that
- 1:37Speaker 1: I never paid things. I don't the initials like. I
- 1:40Speaker 1: know you're into war and whip and batpip, Well, AQI
- 1:44Speaker 1: air quality indecks. I generally don't pay an attention to
- 1:46Speaker 1: that I'm not asthmatic, and I don't you know, it's
- 1:49Speaker 1: not in my radar. And the uh the also the
- 1:53Speaker 1: the sun, the factor of the what's the UVA or whatever.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Like the U V U v A is it u
- 1:58Speaker 2: B y yes, I think yeah.
- 2:01Speaker 1: Ultraviolet or u v I ultra violet index or uv
- 2:03Speaker 1: A is uv A is Virginia University of Virginia. It's
- 2:06Speaker 1: tom Water Courts alma mater. But the UV I don't
- 2:08Speaker 1: care about either because you know or whatever. Put sunscreen
- 2:11Speaker 1: on if you want, it's all good. Yeah, a lot
- 2:14Speaker 1: of if your child has asthma. My daughter had as
- 2:17Speaker 1: a youth, had exercise induced asthma and had had a
- 2:23Speaker 1: nebulizer and a haler thingy a little that thing and yeah,
- 2:28Speaker 1: I mean that thing is real. If and for kids,
- 2:30Speaker 1: like if you're doing a camp or something, or if
- 2:32Speaker 1: you're if there was I saw a bunch of people
- 2:35Speaker 1: running last night, right when it was kind of starting. Uh,
- 2:38Speaker 1: there's in my neighborhood. There's like some run club and
- 2:40Speaker 1: you'll see like a hundred people running at varying speeds
- 2:44Speaker 1: and it looks like it's an organized fun run, but
- 2:46Speaker 1: it's just this club. But people get together, and kudos
- 2:48Speaker 1: to them. They run for fun, they run for I
- 2:51Speaker 1: like it. And then and then they go out and
- 2:52Speaker 1: hang out and drink, so there's nothing wrong with that.
- 2:54Speaker 2: It was right around six o'clock hour last night. It
- 2:57Speaker 2: was okay until six the wind shifted. Then all of
- 2:59Speaker 2: a sudden, it just wow, it just came in. It
- 3:02Speaker 2: came in like the packers sweep or something like that.
- 3:05Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of Green Maison. It was like
- 3:08Speaker 2: the Four Horsemen. Unbelievable. So all right, so, yeah, did
- 3:12Speaker 2: you enjoy the SP's last night? I didn't watch a.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Single minute of the SP's and keeping my streak alive
- 3:17Speaker 1: of not watching or caring about the SP's. It's a
- 3:20Speaker 1: concocted manufacturer.
- 3:22Speaker 2: It is.
- 3:23Speaker 1: There's no question about ESPN promotion, and I don't I
- 3:27Speaker 1: don't care about it. There might have been some moments. Now,
- 3:30Speaker 1: your your wife and your mother in law. They like Marcelo.
- 3:34Speaker 1: They like Marcelo. They're into award shows in general. So
- 3:37Speaker 1: this was another one to see, Hey, who was famous
- 3:39Speaker 1: was there? And things like that.
- 3:40Speaker 2: Marcelo Ornandez is pretty I think it's Hernandez, right, I
- 3:43Speaker 2: don't want to get that Marcello. Yeah, he was pretty funny.
- 3:46Speaker 2: I thought in his monologue he did a great job
- 3:48Speaker 2: hosting a young guy. Right, young guy, it seems like
- 3:52Speaker 2: it at least and at least it looks really young,
- 3:55Speaker 2: did a pretty good job. I pretty much watch watch
- 3:58Speaker 2: the first twenty minutes. I saw Jalen Bruns and get
- 4:00Speaker 2: a Performer of the Year or whatever whatever award he won,
- 4:04Speaker 2: the Knicks got Team of the Year. I was in
- 4:05Speaker 2: and out, but it was, you know, it was something
- 4:08Speaker 2: to have on. It's not something I ever make appointment viewing.
- 4:12Speaker 2: I tried to. I would have gotten to walk in
- 4:15Speaker 2: Drew around the block if it wasn't for the smoke
- 4:18Speaker 2: that started to just pump in, So that kind of
- 4:20Speaker 2: kept me inside and watching the events. But you know,
- 4:23Speaker 2: it's something to have on during the slowest sports day
- 4:26Speaker 2: of the year, the day after the All Star All
- 4:29Speaker 2: Star Game, and we did get the reprieve obviously of
- 4:32Speaker 2: one of the all time great World Cup matches with
- 4:34Speaker 2: England and Argentina, but that was during the day, so yeah,
- 4:37Speaker 2: evening there wasn't elson, but I.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Got to watch that and it was must see TV,
- 4:42Speaker 1: especially the back end of it. What a match it
- 4:45Speaker 1: got me thinking, Argentina wins to I don't want to
- 4:48Speaker 1: spoiler for anybody, but they went two to one, they're
- 4:50Speaker 1: down one to nothing. In the eighty fifth minute they
- 4:53Speaker 1: get the equalizer, Equaliza assists for Messi and then they
- 4:57Speaker 1: get there. They were knocked on the door too for
- 4:58Speaker 1: like ten minutes. They get the win or an extra
- 5:00Speaker 1: time and it made me thinking. I texted Aaron Nagler
- 5:04Speaker 1: like football with the U that's about as cruel a
- 5:08Speaker 1: finish as you can have. And I've heard it like
- 5:12Speaker 1: people looking for analogies, Well, the analogy is if you're
- 5:15Speaker 1: an England fan, and there are plenty in our parts.
- 5:19Speaker 1: And there were people who are just cheering for England
- 5:21Speaker 1: because they were hoping for that England Spain. Finally they
- 5:22Speaker 1: wanted England to go through. England hasn't won a World
- 5:24Speaker 1: Cup in sixty years. Harry Kane, who used to I
- 5:26Speaker 1: used to love him when he was with Tottenham.
- 5:28Speaker 2: Yep, those guys.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Those guys are fun to watch.
- 5:31Speaker 2: Schford was pretty good last night, I thought, but he
- 5:33Speaker 2: couldn't onslaught. He couldn't make it.
- 5:35Speaker 1: They're fun to watch and the equivalent we're looking for equivalent, Well,
- 5:38Speaker 1: if you're an England fan. That was Game three, that
- 5:43Speaker 1: was Pete Alonzo.
- 5:44Speaker 2: That's pretty good.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Yeah, you're sitting there, it's like, we got this because
- 5:47Speaker 1: you got to the eighty fifth minute, which is basically
- 5:50Speaker 1: the ninth inning, and Devin Williams came in and hung
- 5:54Speaker 1: a change up to Pete Alonzo and ye.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Great example this and then to a final, so they
- 5:59Speaker 2: hadn't been to a final and.
- 6:00Speaker 1: Six final and they were gonna play Spain, and like,
- 6:03Speaker 1: you know, but the other analogy that I heard and
- 6:05Speaker 1: this one is good.
- 6:06Speaker 2: I guess what in my mind? Yeah, is that.
- 6:10Speaker 1: England. Wait, let me see. It's from a tweet England
- 6:13Speaker 1: for those who are wondering. England went into the prevent
- 6:17Speaker 1: defense leading three to nothing in the third quarter against
- 6:21Speaker 1: Joe Montana. That's yeah, that's exactly Messi is. Joe mont
- 6:25Speaker 1: Messi is the best player on the planet. At thirty eight,
- 6:26Speaker 1: thirty nine, he's still the best player on the pitch.
- 6:28Speaker 1: He's got on the pitch to assists for the last incredible,
- 6:31Speaker 1: his touches, the way he settles things, he's the.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Final ball he sent in for that go ahead goal.
- 6:36Speaker 2: So yeah, absolute master England.
- 6:38Speaker 1: Just they kind of backed off the throttle and they
- 6:40Speaker 1: were playing not to lose. They were in the prevent defense,
- 6:44Speaker 1: and it's scorched that it's gonna haunt them to their
- 6:48Speaker 1: bleeping graves.
- 6:49Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, this is the Finland situation in some ways.
- 6:53Speaker 2: I'll push back on the on the three to nothing
- 6:56Speaker 2: in the first half though, I mean one no, no,
- 6:58Speaker 2: three nothing in the third quarter. Yeah, third quarter. A
- 7:02Speaker 2: one nil lead with eighty in the eighty fifth minute
- 7:04Speaker 2: is a stronger lead than that, though, isn't it. It's
- 7:07Speaker 2: hard to compare sports, but they played well. The thing
- 7:10Speaker 2: is though, But.
- 7:13Speaker 1: Here's the thing though. Yeah, it's like one no, you're
- 7:16Speaker 1: up three nothing. But that's how tenuous it was because
- 7:20Speaker 1: in football with a U, if it's one nil, the
- 7:24Speaker 1: team that scores the equalizer late has all the momentum
- 7:29Speaker 1: in the world and it's like doubling up. Like it's
- 7:32Speaker 1: not often likes, it's rare that the other team will
- 7:35Speaker 1: bounce back because it just buries you. It's just the
- 7:38Speaker 1: the emotional swing that's like, that's like a goal and
- 7:41Speaker 1: a half almost, because though the score is tied, if
- 7:46Speaker 1: you just scored in the eighty fifth minute to tie it,
- 7:48Speaker 1: it's like you're a head.
- 7:49Speaker 2: It's an anvil on the time it is, so that
- 7:52Speaker 2: is and it's a lift.
- 7:53Speaker 1: I mean the old the old saw is that you know,
- 7:56Speaker 1: when you're watching the Stanley Cup, the most dangerous lead
- 7:58Speaker 1: hockey is the two goal lead. Yeah, and you give
- 8:01Speaker 1: one up and then the other team has life and
- 8:02Speaker 1: then then they tie it. Now, but this is this
- 8:05Speaker 1: was the equivalent of that. And this was so in
- 8:07Speaker 1: terms of the gut punch, the nad kick, which is
- 8:11Speaker 1: ninety percent of being a fan, as we point out,
- 8:13Speaker 1: because you only get to celebrate like ten percent of
- 8:15Speaker 1: the great stuff. This was up there for England. This
- 8:19Speaker 1: was there, Devin Williams pee Alonso, Yeah, how did we lose?
- 8:23Speaker 2: This? Like it was right there for us. So for me,
- 8:25Speaker 2: it was the twenty fourteen Natty Championship. You know, you're
- 8:28Speaker 2: right one step from the super Bowl. You're there, you
- 8:30Speaker 2: had the lead. You blew it, I mean a multi
- 8:32Speaker 2: the damn ball, Brandon Bostic, stuff like that like that
- 8:35Speaker 2: was that was to me an example that as well.
- 8:38Speaker 2: That's on Paru because also the stage you were at,
- 8:41Speaker 2: you know, the chance to go to the final. So
- 8:43Speaker 2: the thing is parking the big call that strategy parking
- 8:46Speaker 2: the bus, packing the back, protecting a one goal lead,
- 8:49Speaker 2: to just bring everyone back and play defense. In soccer
- 8:52Speaker 2: football football, that strategy has worked, I mean thousands of
- 8:55Speaker 2: times to protect a one goal lead in the history
- 8:58Speaker 2: of the game. However, or Argentina's onslaught was relentless. They
- 9:02Speaker 2: could have scored a couple before that. They had a
- 9:04Speaker 2: post right before. We were so far back. The England
- 9:07Speaker 2: defense was so far back you had to do something else.
- 9:10Speaker 2: But that's just the way it was. And they couldn't
- 9:12Speaker 2: maintain it as much as they tried, and they tried
- 9:14Speaker 2: that strategy. I saw the England manager defending his tactics.
- 9:18Speaker 2: I don't know, I mean, I know this is results based.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Maybe it could have been, it could have worked, maybe,
- 9:23Speaker 2: but it just clearly was a problem even before the
- 9:27Speaker 2: goals occurred, that they were they were bound to score.
- 9:29Speaker 2: The pressure was too much. England would have been super
- 9:31Speaker 2: fortunate to get out of that unscathed if they found
- 9:34Speaker 2: a way to win that with that strategy. England would
- 9:37Speaker 2: have been fortunate. We'll say that. Yeah, I mean it
- 9:41Speaker 2: was it was not likely. It wasn't like you were
- 9:43Speaker 2: dominating the momentum. It wasn't you know, Argentina was absolutely
- 9:48Speaker 2: knocking on the door the whole time there at the end.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean maybe they're just it wasn't. So now
- 9:54Speaker 1: we have, you know, we have the final Spain in
- 9:57Speaker 1: Argentina Sunday, and I don't know, you cheer for me
- 10:00Speaker 1: see to win another one because that's his This would
- 10:01Speaker 1: be his kind of walk off.
- 10:03Speaker 2: It's part of it. You know. There's a little Lebron
- 10:05Speaker 2: Jordan thing that goes on in this sport with Messi
- 10:07Speaker 2: and Ronaldo fans, where the one wants the other one
- 10:11Speaker 2: not to get accolades. So there's a lot of people
- 10:13Speaker 2: that have a vested interest in cheering against Argentina that
- 10:17Speaker 2: have been absolutely devastated this whole tournament through because Argentina's
- 10:21Speaker 2: saved themselves time and time again. It seems like Argentina
- 10:24Speaker 2: has nine lives and they keep using them. They don't
- 10:26Speaker 2: run out. It was the Egypt match, it was you know,
- 10:29Speaker 2: you go Cape Verde. Argentina almost lost plenty of times,
- 10:34Speaker 2: and that was what the Ronaldo fans were hoping for.
- 10:37Speaker 2: And right now, if they if you're a fan of
- 10:40Speaker 2: let's say European soccer, or a fan of Ronaldo Argentina
- 10:44Speaker 2: finding a way to win. Messi finding way to win
- 10:46Speaker 2: is kind of devastating for your your argument, your trash
- 10:49Speaker 2: talk ability.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Or you know.
- 10:51Speaker 2: We talk about this with the Lebron Jordan thing all
- 10:53Speaker 2: the time. So for me, it's a good story that
- 10:56Speaker 2: Messi's back again. I think he's a likable guy. He's
- 10:58Speaker 2: I think the best player ever. Some people can argue
- 11:01Speaker 2: that that's fine, they will forever, but right now it's
- 11:04Speaker 2: harder than know what he's doing. But Spain has been
- 11:06Speaker 2: kind of an impressive unit as well. When they weren't
- 11:10Speaker 2: one of the favorites. It was supposed to be France,
- 11:12Speaker 2: it was supposed to be the other teams. So you
- 11:14Speaker 2: got to give Spain credit for their They've only given
- 11:16Speaker 2: up one goal a tournament drew, so that's amazing too.
- 11:20Speaker 2: So we're gonna have a great final. The story with
- 11:22Speaker 2: Messy Obviously, you want stars. Spain has a young star
- 11:25Speaker 2: in Yamal. He just turned nineteen. He's an amazing player.
- 11:28Speaker 2: We should get a great And the fact is the
- 11:30Speaker 2: fact that they play a third place match still is
- 11:32Speaker 2: pretty interesting to me because third place matches have kind
- 11:35Speaker 2: of gone by the wayside in major American sports. Remember
- 11:38Speaker 2: they used to do that in college basketball, drew and
- 11:41Speaker 2: things like that. We don't have that anymore, but in
- 11:44Speaker 2: the World Cup we still have the third place match.
- 11:46Speaker 2: And I know in American sporting culture, there'd be so
- 11:49Speaker 2: many guys that were just like, I'm not playing the
- 11:50Speaker 2: n Yeah, this is their it. But you won't see that.
- 11:53Speaker 2: You'll probably see France and England with a lot of
- 11:55Speaker 2: their great players trying to win this match because France
- 11:58Speaker 2: and England a lot of people thought would be the final.
- 12:00Speaker 2: And you let fans that care about it. That's that'll
- 12:02Speaker 2: that'll be the completely difference in American sporting culture versus
- 12:06Speaker 2: European people still try and win that third place.
- 12:09Speaker 1: Man, I don't think people remember it. I think, if
- 12:11Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, that when your beloved Marquette then Warriors
- 12:14Speaker 1: won their title in nineteen seventy seven without McGuire that
- 12:19Speaker 1: the uh there was a third place.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Game they played until I want to say, like eighty one,
- 12:23Speaker 2: eighty or eighty I'm gonna I'm going to google that.
- 12:26Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So who was who did North Carolina
- 12:28Speaker 1: beat in that final?
- 12:29Speaker 2: Far?
- 12:29Speaker 1: Because the Golden Warriors beat UNC Charlotte and con Bred Maxwell.
- 12:34Speaker 2: They beat UNLV, one of Tark's early good times.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, UNLV. So that was the third place
- 12:39Speaker 1: game UNLV against UNCC.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Which I honestly don't know won the game.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Who cares, Yeah, no one cares. No one's No one's
- 12:46Speaker 1: hanging a banner for winning the third place game at
- 12:49Speaker 1: the NCAA tournament.
- 12:50Speaker 2: I guess my point would be, I think back you
- 12:51Speaker 2: had a final four banner back then they might have
- 12:53Speaker 2: hung like an NCAA third place banner, but not anymore.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Maybe in the sixties and the fifties, would you have
- 12:58Speaker 2: done that?
- 12:59Speaker 1: Not a chance.
- 12:59Speaker 2: I saw a picture once and I can't I can't
- 13:02Speaker 2: prove its veracity, but I did see a picture of
- 13:05Speaker 2: tar Hill Blue NCAA second place seventy seven banner. Now
- 13:10Speaker 2: they don't put it up anymore. Obviously you would put
- 13:14Speaker 2: a final four up banner, Yeah, yeah, but nothing to
- 13:18Speaker 2: signify that you lost in the title game, which always
- 13:21Speaker 2: thought was interesting, like the Markette Marquette lost the title
- 13:24Speaker 2: game in seventy four and they just keep a seventy
- 13:27Speaker 2: four final four banner up. But I always thought it
- 13:30Speaker 2: should notify somewhere national runners up to notify that you
- 13:33Speaker 2: won an extra game, But hey, I guess that's not
- 13:36Speaker 2: what we do. That's not what we do.
- 13:37Speaker 1: Time for a little Who's Hot Who's Not? Brought just
- 13:39Speaker 1: by Donovan Jorgensen, heating and Cooling employee, owned for forty years.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Check them out for all your h VAC needs. You're
- 13:46Speaker 1: gonna need the air conditioning. You don't want the windows
- 13:48Speaker 1: open it all to day.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Speaking of who's hot, the fire at Wildfires, right, Drew, Yeah, that's.
- 13:52Speaker 1: That's what's who's hot? Who's Yeah, that's what I was
- 13:54Speaker 1: gonna say. Well, who's hot is Argentina and Messi? Because Messi,
- 13:59Speaker 1: like if you win, you know, it's hard to win
- 14:01Speaker 1: the World Cup and back to back World Cups is
- 14:04Speaker 1: really something and for if that, if this is indeed
- 14:07Speaker 1: his farewell to the international stage, Lionel Messi is definitely hot.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Argentina's hot because they came back and won again. They've
- 14:14Speaker 1: done it before and they're rolling in to face Spain. Yeah,
- 14:19Speaker 1: so that's who's hot.
- 14:21Speaker 2: Who's not?
- 14:21Speaker 1: Is like us for dealing with these smokes because we
- 14:24Speaker 1: finally got rid of the ninety nine degree temperatures and
- 14:27Speaker 1: now you can't open the windows because of the damn fire.
- 14:30Speaker 1: So we are not hot at all.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, and I did see the Wolves introduced ball
- 14:38Speaker 2: and so I guess that's a little bit there. They're
- 14:40Speaker 2: trying to get excitement there and that Giannis will be
- 14:42Speaker 2: introduced along with Bobby port Is today in Miami, so
- 14:47Speaker 2: kind of a hot moment for them. And the Wizards
- 14:50Speaker 2: have shut down Aja Debon saff for the rest of
- 14:52Speaker 2: the NBA Summer League. I guess to protect him and
- 14:55Speaker 2: load man it whatever it is. They don't need to
- 14:57Speaker 2: see him anymore. So that's okay. But Braden Burr, he's

- 17:48Speaker 1: cruelest endings, because it's always cruel when your team loses.
- 17:51Speaker 1: And I when I was watching England meltdown yesterday, anytime
- 17:56Speaker 1: the team that loses the lead in the NFL, like
- 17:59Speaker 1: the it was the pre event defense that cost England yesterday,
- 18:02Speaker 1: but I just kept flashing back to the Alonso game
- 18:05Speaker 1: where it's right there, you're five minutes away, that's three
- 18:09Speaker 1: outs away, and they didn't get it done. It's just cruel,
- 18:13Speaker 1: absolutely cruel. We'll discuss that and much more. Dolph is next.

- 18:43Speaker 1: Scott Dolphin's here for halftime of the huddle from the
- 18:45Speaker 1: country station on the Hull FM one oh six and Dolf.
- 18:49Speaker 1: We're talking about the World Cup game and England went
- 18:51Speaker 1: into the prevent defense up a goal, they give up
- 18:54Speaker 1: two from eighty fifth minute. They can taste it that
- 18:58Speaker 1: they're moving on to the final to face Spain for
- 19:00Speaker 1: a chance to win their first World Cup in sixty years.
- 19:02Speaker 1: And the rug is pulled and I kept flashing back
- 19:05Speaker 1: to October third, twenty twenty four and Devin Williams against
- 19:08Speaker 1: Pete Alonso Brewers losing that game at home against the Mets. Yeah,
- 19:12Speaker 1: it was right there for the taking. And that's what
- 19:15Speaker 1: happened to England yesterday.
- 19:17Speaker 3: Yeah, you could tell yesterday as soon as they gave
- 19:19Speaker 3: up that first goal and they had been flirting with
- 19:21Speaker 3: disaster for a while, right.
- 19:22Speaker 1: The goalie made a couple amazing says if.
- 19:24Speaker 2: You're watching that they were. I mean, they were absolutely
- 19:27Speaker 2: getting the door knocked down by Argentina the whole time.
- 19:30Speaker 1: And that was the analogy that the guy made on
- 19:33Speaker 1: X that they went into the prevent defense leading three
- 19:35Speaker 1: to nothing against Joe Montana in the third exactly, asonel
- 19:39Speaker 1: Messi is Joe Montana and that what are you doing?
- 19:42Speaker 2: Right?
- 19:43Speaker 1: They just yeah, they didn't they didn't get the offensive
- 19:45Speaker 1: opportunities to put it away.
- 19:46Speaker 2: It's a strategy in soccer to do that, park the
- 19:49Speaker 2: bus whatever. But you're a team that talented, with that
- 19:52Speaker 2: talented of a player, you're just flirting with disaster.
- 19:54Speaker 3: In fact, they had substituted defense just to try to
- 19:57Speaker 3: win the game. And I get it, but boy, you
- 19:58Speaker 3: could tell. And after that, after the equalizer, you're like,
- 20:02Speaker 3: they're screwed. They are not going to win this.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Exactly, And that's what I was telling arm And it's like,
- 20:05Speaker 1: that's not just an equalizer, because it's like scoring a
- 20:08Speaker 1: goal and a half because you have all the momentum
- 20:10Speaker 1: and the other teams like, oh yeah, just crushing.
- 20:13Speaker 3: You could say they knew they were probably going to
- 20:15Speaker 3: lose in extra time, or they were going to lose
- 20:18Speaker 3: in if it went to penalty kicks. But there was
- 20:21Speaker 3: no way they were going to win that game. After
- 20:23Speaker 3: they tied up, you could just see it in their
- 20:24Speaker 3: faces and Argentina was just energized, and god were they
- 20:29Speaker 3: fun to watch.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Yeah, they seem to have more energy at the end,
- 20:32Speaker 2: and obviously when you are desperate and attacking, you do
- 20:35Speaker 2: what England had to make a series of great defensive plays,
- 20:38Speaker 2: including Pickford that goal and a couple of balls off
- 20:41Speaker 2: the posts and things like that. It was about now
- 20:44Speaker 2: they could have survived. England could have. I mean, it's
- 20:47Speaker 2: happened many times with foreign soccer. They were at the
- 20:49Speaker 2: eighty fifth minute, but it would have been kind of
- 20:51Speaker 2: miraculous for them to survive that onslaught from the argent
- 20:54Speaker 2: They were pushed so far back, You're right, I mean
- 20:58Speaker 2: that they really kind of turtled up too much.
- 21:00Speaker 3: And I you know, I don't want to compare them
- 21:03Speaker 3: to the Cubs and the Billy Goat and all that stuff,
- 21:06Speaker 3: but I mean, now, you're sixty years in counting and
- 21:08Speaker 3: this team had a chance. They were right there to
- 21:11Speaker 3: shock the world and get their first Cups in sixty six.
- 21:14Speaker 1: And the other. The other analogy we can make is
- 21:16Speaker 1: that Messi is kind of like Lebron at this point
- 21:18Speaker 1: where he's got a chance to walk off and like
- 21:21Speaker 1: to win back to back World Cups, Like he's just
- 21:24Speaker 1: amazing and to be the best player on the pitch
- 21:27Speaker 1: at age what is he thirty eight?
- 21:29Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not like they're dragging him along. He's making
- 21:31Speaker 2: all their winning plays. I mean that Argentinian side has
- 21:35Speaker 2: like nine lives in this tournament and he's been the reason.
- 21:38Speaker 1: So every time he has you don't have to know
- 21:40Speaker 1: anything about soccer to see how specially he is. Oh
- 21:42Speaker 1: he's incredible.
- 21:43Speaker 2: Yeah, I dribbled like four guys. It's just amazing.
- 21:45Speaker 3: And they're fine for the future too, as you saw
- 21:47Speaker 3: the kind of the youth movement yesterday. And it's two
- 21:50Speaker 3: World Cups in a row. Now that the kid who
- 21:53Speaker 3: had the amazing goal to tie it up, I mean
- 21:55Speaker 3: he starred in the last World Cup too.
- 21:57Speaker 2: It's gonna be the final will be interesting because spain'sd
- 21:59Speaker 2: is been so well organized. They've only given up one
- 22:02Speaker 2: goal in the tournament. They've got you all the young stars,
- 22:05Speaker 2: so I don't know we're going to see what happens.
- 22:07Speaker 1: This is gonna be Yeah, the immovable object, the resistible.
- 22:10Speaker 3: Yes, this is the last time you guys broke down
- 22:12Speaker 3: Spain's d on the show.
- 22:13Speaker 1: I know it's it's incredible. That's what happens in the
- 22:15Speaker 1: World Cup. So we got one more game left of
- 22:17Speaker 1: the World Cup and the Brewers fire up, well, two more.
- 22:20Speaker 3: Actually, how would you love to be England for France?
- 22:24Speaker 3: Now there's there's huge money involved, right, it's thirty six
- 22:27Speaker 3: million for a third place, but they have to drag
- 22:30Speaker 3: their butts down to Miami and play the third place game.
- 22:33Speaker 2: This is just part of our sporting col We were.
- 22:35Speaker 1: Talking about that because the NCAA got rid of that
- 22:37Speaker 1: in the early eighties. I remember when Marquette won their championship.
- 22:40Speaker 1: I remember there was a third place game with UNLV
- 22:43Speaker 1: in North Carolina Charlotte. Yes, who cares about it?
- 22:46Speaker 2: Who's hanging a banner for the finish? Eighty one was
- 22:48Speaker 2: the last third place game.
- 22:49Speaker 3: I remember my IOWA squad losing to Louisville in the
- 22:54Speaker 3: semi finals and then they had to play Perdue Joe
- 22:57Speaker 3: Barry Carroll nineteen eighty and they lost the coilation game too,
- 23:01Speaker 3: just another kick in the butt.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing all these things work, and it's been
- 23:04Speaker 2: how the culture and sports changes. But it's one of them.
- 23:07Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, you know like World Baseball Classic. We're
- 23:10Speaker 1: not playing for third.
- 23:11Speaker 2: No, there's a.
- 23:12Speaker 1: Bronze medal game in the Olympics, right or there.
- 23:14Speaker 2: Used to be. Yeah, there still is. There still is
- 23:16Speaker 2: yet if you yet, if you are in the Olympics,
- 23:18Speaker 2: the bronze is a big deal.
- 23:20Speaker 1: So hey, that's true. It's better than not getting the bronze.
- 23:22Speaker 1: Pie says twenty fourteen. Yeah, that's how it felt for us,
- 23:25Speaker 1: the twenty fourteen and a few Championshi game. Yeah, we're
- 23:27Speaker 1: talking about just crushing losses and what sport gives you
- 23:31Speaker 1: the most crushing losses because soccer the football mean, I've
- 23:36Speaker 1: seen it before. And Bob Gansler, who was the first
- 23:38Speaker 1: coach I ever covered with, the UWM Panther soccer coach
- 23:41Speaker 1: when I was in college, and he's like, he just
- 23:43Speaker 1: went into Wisconsin. I thoughtic Hall of Fame. He you say, oh,
- 23:46Speaker 1: we died in beauty. Today you can play great in
- 23:50Speaker 1: soccer and you play technically great and still lose because
- 23:52Speaker 1: of a bounce or they're all cruel. But what sport
- 23:56Speaker 1: has the most gut wrenching losses?
- 23:58Speaker 2: Do you think?
- 24:00Speaker 3: I think it's it's probably soccer after watching the Estuary,
- 24:03Speaker 3: maybe hockey, I mean, just because of the finality of
- 24:07Speaker 3: it all, when you just it's blood and guts for
- 24:09Speaker 3: a couple hours out there and then the loos in
- 24:12Speaker 3: that fashion.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Yeah, and the puck just bounces off a guy's shoulder
- 24:14Speaker 1: and goes.
- 24:15Speaker 2: On or something, and the fact that any moment can
- 24:17Speaker 2: be the end, or in the playoffs when you have
- 24:18Speaker 2: a golden goal type situation, you know.
- 24:21Speaker 1: But as we've seen, like the Devin Williams Alonzo thing
- 24:24Speaker 1: is about as wrenching as it gets. The only thing
- 24:26Speaker 1: that could have made that worse as it had been
- 24:27Speaker 1: in New York, and they walked it off. But then,
- 24:29Speaker 1: as you remember, not only was there the Pete Alonzo homer,
- 24:32Speaker 1: they scored an insurance run after that to make it
- 24:34Speaker 1: forth to and really sucked the life out of it.
- 24:36Speaker 3: And then you had Jesse frickin' Winker going and Lily
- 24:39Speaker 3: Damas going back and forth.
- 24:40Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we've dealt with a lot people already,
- 24:42Speaker 2: like fourth and twenty six, I mean.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Yeah, there's I mean everything, but I'm just trying to
- 24:47Speaker 1: like what sport not necessarily like what was your most
- 24:50Speaker 1: you know, ball kicked moment.
- 24:51Speaker 3: But yeah, I think it's hockey now if you ask
- 24:54Speaker 3: about it, you know, it would definitely be football for
- 24:57Speaker 3: me as a college and an NFL fan of two
- 24:59Speaker 3: teams that have given me much heartbreak over the years.
- 25:01Speaker 3: But if you have to pick a sport for me,
- 25:03Speaker 3: it would still be hockey.
- 25:04Speaker 2: Because one because one goal or one point can make
- 25:06Speaker 2: a huge difference. Yeah, I think if you say basketball,
- 25:09Speaker 2: the reality is a twenty it'd be like a twenty
- 25:12Speaker 2: point comeback, and that takes time and possessions and things
- 25:15Speaker 2: like that.
- 25:15Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean the Spurs didn't they lead every
- 25:19Speaker 1: game in the finals that they lost Footing won by
- 25:21Speaker 1: twenty eight points.
- 25:22Speaker 2: Well, Troy Casper says Falcons have twenty eight three, But
- 25:24Speaker 2: I don't think that's a good comparison because an NFL
- 25:27Speaker 2: lead like that at halftime would be like being up
- 25:29Speaker 2: three nil in soccer, right for two nil? Three?
- 25:32Speaker 1: Yeah? Three.
- 25:33Speaker 3: The problem with that game was just strategy was horrible,
- 25:36Speaker 3: kind of like England yesterday.
- 25:37Speaker 2: They say completely Well, England's England's coaches defending our manager,
- 25:41Speaker 2: defending his dread completely completely.
- 25:43Speaker 1: The other question for you, Dolph is my dear pal
- 25:46Speaker 1: Dan Needles crossed off an item from his bucket list.
- 25:49Speaker 1: Yesterday he played Saint Andrews in Scotland. Wow, he has been.
- 25:54Speaker 1: He's been somebody's been dreaming about since the first time
- 25:55Speaker 1: he saw the course in the Open Championship, which is
- 25:57Speaker 1: underway as we speak.
- 25:59Speaker 3: Yeah, at Royal Burke. Of course, Saint Andrews is probably
- 26:01Speaker 3: the most famous of all these.
- 26:03Speaker 2: He got to.
- 26:03Speaker 1: Play it yesterday and he made a couple party. He
- 26:05Speaker 1: made a par on eighteen. Well that's a day stand
- 26:07Speaker 1: on the bridge, like Watson's unbelievable. Yeah, he like it
- 26:10Speaker 1: was like a dream for him and he got to
- 26:12Speaker 1: do it. So do you have a bucket listening? Because
- 26:14Speaker 1: I don't have one really as a participant, because I'm
- 26:17Speaker 1: not a good enough golfer to care. I mean I
- 26:19Speaker 1: I'd be as intimidated playing Oakwood as I would be
- 26:22Speaker 1: playing Augusta.
- 26:23Speaker 3: Right to me, it doesn't matter. It definitely wouldn't be golf.
- 26:26Speaker 3: I lived six miles from Pebble Beach for seven years
- 26:28Speaker 3: and never played it. Had the opportunity to play it
- 26:29Speaker 3: when it was one hundred and seventy five dollars, but never.
- 26:32Speaker 3: I'm envious of you, Drew because for me, I've never
- 26:35Speaker 3: been to Fenway Park. I would love to go to
- 26:36Speaker 3: Boston and check out the Green Monster, and there's a
- 26:39Speaker 3: couple other ballparks I'd like this.
- 26:40Speaker 1: Yeah, my thing, I'm Cameron Indoor is mine. Yeah, yeah,
- 26:43Speaker 1: I want to see Cameron Indoor. I want to see
- 26:46Speaker 1: what that is like because I've watched it for years
- 26:48Speaker 1: and that's right there with with Fenway and Wrigley. Watch
- 26:50Speaker 1: a Duke North Carolina game, there would be just about
- 26:52Speaker 1: like you know, basketball nirvana.
- 26:54Speaker 2: But I've always wanted this about the dream of like, okay,
- 26:57Speaker 2: so I'm not like I like golf every now and then,
- 26:59Speaker 2: but I'm not like a serious golfer. I don't deify
- 27:01Speaker 2: it like some of these guys do. Okay, So the
- 27:04Speaker 2: dream of playing a chorus and saying I've always wanted
- 27:06Speaker 2: to play this when you get down to it, isn't
- 27:09Speaker 2: it just grass and trees? And isn't it just the
- 27:11Speaker 2: same as any other piece of nature? Not that it's
- 27:13Speaker 2: not okay because you've seen it on TV in Augusta.
- 27:17Speaker 3: Yeah, you've seen historic moments aiming corner places.
- 27:21Speaker 1: Back when the that's the reason though, back when the
- 27:23Speaker 1: GMO slash US Bank open or whatever the hell we
- 27:26Speaker 1: used to call it was that brown deer. You could
- 27:29Speaker 1: like you could watch that and then like, oh, I
- 27:32Speaker 1: know I've hit into that pond, I've hit it in
- 27:34Speaker 1: the creek, I've hit there, and like you could see it, like.
- 27:36Speaker 2: That's what it is, because I've been holes at Curry
- 27:39Speaker 2: Park that are just as pretty as probably you can
- 27:41Speaker 2: make the same argument while there's trees in a valley
- 27:44Speaker 2: and water.
- 27:44Speaker 3: Which which hole is just pretty Curry? The one right
- 27:47Speaker 3: along the freeway between.
- 27:51Speaker 1: Okay, Arman, do you want to watch a game at
- 27:52Speaker 1: Fenway or you know, it's the same dimensions, Like why
- 27:54Speaker 1: don't you just go over to Franklin and watch the
- 27:56Speaker 1: milkman at Franklin Field. It's baseball, isn't outfield, there's a
- 28:01Speaker 1: and the.
- 28:02Speaker 2: I just think it is funny and it's just an
- 28:04Speaker 2: excuse for like these courses of.
- 28:05Speaker 1: Check well now, well the courses, but we're talking just
- 28:07Speaker 1: venues like something you got to do. Now, all right, Armond,
- 28:10Speaker 1: you want to go hit, Like what's the difference. The
- 28:12Speaker 1: dimensions are the same. You can go hit at Greenfield
- 28:15Speaker 1: High School. You can go hit hit tennis balls, or
- 28:17Speaker 1: you can hit tennis balls in for an hour at
- 28:21Speaker 1: which one is more special.
- 28:22Speaker 2: It's not a good comparison because the one is a
- 28:24Speaker 2: stadium and one isn't. But both of these golf courses
- 28:26Speaker 2: are golf courses. They have the same.
- 28:30Speaker 3: Usually the Norman Dale philosophy from Hoosiers or you can
- 28:33Speaker 3: get the tape measure out and measure from the hoop
- 28:35Speaker 3: down to the well.
- 28:36Speaker 2: Okay, I get that, but that again, I don't think
- 28:38Speaker 2: that's a good comparison for golf. But maybe I'm wrong.
- 28:40Speaker 2: Maybe it's just I haven't been to enough courses. You
- 28:43Speaker 2: haven't been enough courses. Yeah, mean, I played New Berland
- 28:45Speaker 2: Hills and that seems.
- 28:46Speaker 1: A nice in the Whistling Straits even walking around, So
- 28:50Speaker 1: maybe that's the It's pretty amazing go to Whistling Straits
- 28:53Speaker 1: and like, yeah, is there right your breath take, it's breathtaking.
- 28:57Speaker 1: It's at Bradford Beach and Warnemon and down on the
- 29:00Speaker 1: outside Whistling Straights would be Whistling Streights would be a
- 29:03Speaker 1: great walk and breathtaking. Even if you didn't have clubs and.
- 29:06Speaker 2: I would love to just walk in. What about going
- 29:08Speaker 2: to pay the walk?
- 29:09Speaker 3: We played the Irish Course at Whistley Streets. I've never
- 29:11Speaker 3: played the Big course there, but the Irish Course was
- 29:13Speaker 3: enough for me. And it was a struggle. I mean,
- 29:15Speaker 3: there's oats up in the hills. It's a struggle and
- 29:17Speaker 3: ye lovely.
- 29:18Speaker 2: I just I guess I'm not the right person to
- 29:20Speaker 2: get in because I love the outdoors.
- 29:22Speaker 1: But you're so sentimental, right, maybe you get weepy watching
- 29:25Speaker 1: the introductions of the seventy five All Star Gets.
- 29:28Speaker 2: I'm saying, so, why why not golf? I don't know why.
- 29:30Speaker 1: Well, okay, so it's not just so it is just golf, like, oh, it's.
- 29:34Speaker 2: An armon thing, I guess. I mean it's an armor thing.
- 29:36Speaker 3: There's not one bucket lust list thing that you think,
- 29:39Speaker 3: which you know it's not about the bucket.
- 29:42Speaker 1: But what you're saying about golf is you're comparing the
- 29:45Speaker 1: Greenfield High School gym to Butler to Hinklefield House, like
- 29:48Speaker 1: it's not the same.
- 29:49Speaker 2: I guess my disconnect is to me, the stadium in
- 29:51Speaker 2: golf is nature, and nature is around us. In a
- 29:54Speaker 2: lot of golf courses, So why is that nature differently?
- 29:57Speaker 1: But it's like, what's the difference between the basketball courd
- 30:00Speaker 1: at Greenfild High School and Hinklefield House. The Butler are.
- 30:03Speaker 2: Friends of seats thousands of seats? Well again, but that's
- 30:06Speaker 2: not what you have in golf, I guess, but maybe
- 30:08Speaker 2: you do when you consider that, like the lake and
- 30:12Speaker 2: the water, the history. That's just to think about. That's it.
- 30:15Speaker 2: That's what it is.
- 30:16Speaker 3: Think about Dan Needle's playing Saint Andrews and you know,
- 30:19Speaker 3: think about the people that have played that course through
- 30:22Speaker 3: the centuries, through the decade.
- 30:26Speaker 2: I love that part of it.
- 30:28Speaker 3: Old Tom what's his name back in the day when
- 30:30Speaker 3: he was playing with homemade clubs? Yeah, I forget think
- 30:34Speaker 3: of his name.
- 30:36Speaker 2: I understand the golf and maybe it's a cynical take
- 30:39Speaker 2: on it. I don't know.
- 30:39Speaker 1: I don't get him because you are the least cynical person,
- 30:42Speaker 1: you are the most childlike fan.
- 30:44Speaker 2: It is an odd take for me. It is.
- 30:46Speaker 1: It's a totally odd take. I just don't get it. Yeah,
- 30:49Speaker 1: Curtain Waukesha wants Tom took Happy Place Hemp Duck before
- 30:53Speaker 1: before the show today. He might have gotten a gummy.
- 30:56Speaker 2: If I tell you, I'll give you will someone paid
- 30:58Speaker 2: me money to walk a past of nature if I
- 31:00Speaker 2: tell them it's a very special path and not like
- 31:02Speaker 2: the other paths. Okay, I guess I'm just saying.
- 31:05Speaker 1: In West Ben Watson even I can make part at
- 31:08Speaker 1: New Berlin.
- 31:08Speaker 2: Hills, that part is true. Andrew Frish all time terrible
- 31:13Speaker 2: take armor. I think part of the problem is I
- 31:15Speaker 2: can't make part of any of these courses.
- 31:16Speaker 1: I can't make well, That's what I'm saying. That's why
- 31:19Speaker 1: it's amazing playing a great course. I you know, Wana
- 31:24Speaker 1: Key Nominy Falls will bring me to my knees, and
- 31:26Speaker 1: that's an easy course.
- 31:28Speaker 2: It's probably a take no one likes, and I admit it,
- 31:30Speaker 2: but I just had to say it. So Okay, maybe
- 31:32Speaker 2: I'm wrong to most people. That's fine.
- 31:34Speaker 3: You know, you watch these venues though on TV for
- 31:37Speaker 3: your entire life, and if you get a chance to
- 31:39Speaker 3: go there.
- 31:40Speaker 2: I think that's the key I agree with that you
- 31:42Speaker 2: watch Okay, Augusta, you watch it on TV. Amen's Corner.
- 31:45Speaker 2: The fact that you can put yourself into a place
- 31:48Speaker 2: that previously felt like a movie stage and has.
- 31:51Speaker 3: So many dramatic moments that have gone down in history,
- 31:53Speaker 3: you know, through through the years, whether it's golf or whatever.
- 31:56Speaker 3: The first time I ever walked into Michigan Stadium and
- 31:59Speaker 3: you feel that energy from one hundred and ten or
- 32:02Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty whatever it is, a thousand fans,
- 32:03Speaker 3: it kind of takes your breath away, Arman.
- 32:05Speaker 1: But what you're doing is like you're comparing the new
- 32:07Speaker 1: Berlin West Performing Arts Center to Carnegie Hall. Oh, what's
- 32:11Speaker 1: the difference. Okay, what's different seats? And it's a stage
- 32:13Speaker 1: in what's the difference? You know what you're right, Maybe
- 32:16Speaker 1: it's who's played there. That's a good example. Like yeah, yeah,
- 32:19Speaker 1: like you know going up to Brown Deer the GMO,
- 32:21Speaker 1: like that was Tiger's first place. Sure that was that
- 32:24Speaker 1: was where he walked. You can walk in those steps. Yeah,
- 32:26Speaker 1: I could see that part of it.
- 32:27Speaker 2: I could see.
- 32:27Speaker 1: I Uh. Because of my daughter's job, I got the
- 32:30Speaker 1: chance in the spring to go to fires re Form.
- 32:33Speaker 1: They had like an open house for employees and I
- 32:35Speaker 1: got to go shoot hoops on the court. If I
- 32:38Speaker 1: that's cool. Now I could go down to the local gym.
- 32:40Speaker 1: I can go to the y. It's not the same, Armin,
- 32:42Speaker 1: It's not the same.
- 32:42Speaker 2: When I was a kid, I dreamed of shooting at
- 32:45Speaker 2: the Breathley Center, dreamed of it to the point where
- 32:48Speaker 2: I went to this like YMCA Bucks camp, but it
- 32:50Speaker 2: was at the Cousins Center, and I remember thinking that
- 32:52Speaker 2: we were going to the Bradley Center, but before it was,
- 32:54Speaker 2: I was I just assumed that all basketball players play there.
- 32:56Speaker 2: But you're right, So I don't know why I'm Maybe
- 32:58Speaker 2: I don't. I don't deify golf enough. I think I'm
- 33:01Speaker 2: trying to find where my disconnect is here. I'm trying
- 33:03Speaker 2: to search it.
- 33:04Speaker 3: Golf would be right towards the top of the list,
- 33:06Speaker 3: even though I'm not a great golfer, But just the
- 33:09Speaker 3: legendary places like Pebble Beach in Saint Andrew's and Mousta,
- 33:14Speaker 3: there's a.
- 33:14Speaker 1: Handful of places that you'd feel that are special.
- 33:16Speaker 2: Well, I guess it's an indicator. I'm getting zero supportive.
- 33:19Speaker 1: Yeah, you're getting zero. This is a take that is
- 33:21Speaker 1: not going to resonate with the people. Now you're a
- 33:23Speaker 1: man of the people, harmon not today. I guess now's
- 33:25Speaker 1: the top of the gummy.
- 33:26Speaker 2: Hey, can I have a can? I maybe it's the
- 33:27Speaker 2: smoke that's affected me before I forget. I had to
- 33:31Speaker 2: ask off this country music. Okay, I was, as I
- 33:34Speaker 2: like to do. You know, every now and then I
- 33:36Speaker 2: have a thematic bump list, you know, I come up
- 33:38Speaker 2: with some of the bumps for the show thinking about
- 33:40Speaker 2: what we're gonna play, and obviously with the smoke in
- 33:43Speaker 2: the air, I'm thinking of all these smoke theme bumps
- 33:45Speaker 2: and things like that. What is it with country music
- 33:47Speaker 2: and smoke? They're obsessed with smoke. There's so many country
- 33:50Speaker 2: music songs about smoke, both currents and former. A Thousand Horses, Smoke,
- 33:56Speaker 2: Eric Church, Smoke with little Smoke, Yeah, smoke break, so
- 34:00Speaker 2: many of them.
- 34:00Speaker 3: Yeah, smoke a little smoke, Eric Church, A thousand Horses.
- 34:03Speaker 3: That's the one you should be bumping in and out
- 34:05Speaker 3: of a lot, because I think the only thing they
- 34:06Speaker 3: say in the whole song is smoke.
- 34:09Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 34:10Speaker 1: I'm waiting for him to play Deep Purple Well Stuck
- 34:12Speaker 1: on the Water.
- 34:13Speaker 2: That's the big one, right, I mean, isn't that the
- 34:14Speaker 2: big one? So obviously have Miranda Lambert smoking and drinking.
- 34:18Speaker 2: It just seems like smoky smoke. The Mountain run by
- 34:22Speaker 2: Ronnie Mills app there's just so.
- 34:23Speaker 3: Much smokey Mountain rain, yeah, right, rain, Sorry, yeah.
- 34:27Speaker 1: More common reference is the pickup down by the lake
- 34:30Speaker 1: or the smoke right yeah.
- 34:31Speaker 2: And when you're.
- 34:32Speaker 3: Talking pick up, that has to be Chevy. I think
- 34:34Speaker 3: Chevy is mentioned more than any other auto brand in
- 34:37Speaker 3: country music song.
- 34:38Speaker 2: Except for when Alan Jackson did that song about Mercury's right,
- 34:41Speaker 2: crazy about a Mercury? Yeah, yeah, good God.
- 34:44Speaker 1: Is it a licensing deal? I think I might have been.
- 34:46Speaker 2: I think what happened though, if you remember, is he
- 34:48Speaker 2: then did four truck commercial and changed the lyric to
- 34:52Speaker 2: crazy about a Ford truck in the nineties. It might
- 34:54Speaker 2: be wrong about it. I remember that, Yeah, I remember
- 34:57Speaker 2: that one.
- 34:57Speaker 1: I think you're right. Yeah, mine like a steel traveling.
- 35:01Speaker 2: Because my mom bought a Mercury in the nineties and
- 35:03Speaker 2: she was like, this was the Alan Jackson song and
- 35:05Speaker 2: they were made a crazy bottom Mercury and I said,
- 35:09Speaker 2: it's the four truck song Mercury.
- 35:11Speaker 3: Man, Yeah, that's right, absolutely, That's like Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, Plymouth,
- 35:16Speaker 3: yeah a little My first car ever was a Plymouth satellite.
- 35:23Speaker 3: That thing could smoke speaking.
- 35:25Speaker 1: Of Yeah, I don't know, man, maybe on your side
- 35:30Speaker 1: of the building it's different. But we got some windows
- 35:32Speaker 1: here that aren't sealed properly, and we're getting smoked in
- 35:34Speaker 1: the building in the hallways.
- 35:35Speaker 3: You can actually I thought it was in my head,
- 35:37Speaker 3: and Shannon and Greg down Hall said no, no, you
- 35:39Speaker 3: can definitely smell.
- 35:40Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the tickle at the back of the road.
- 35:42Speaker 1: It's uncomfortable. It sucks.
- 35:44Speaker 2: It is I'm.
- 35:44Speaker 1: Supposed to play golf this afternoon. I don't know.
- 35:46Speaker 3: It's supposed to blow out of here. I think this afternoon?
- 35:50Speaker 3: Is this Smoke by a Thousand Horses?
- 35:52Speaker 2: The one? Yeah?
- 35:52Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a good hook only song, the ever
- 35:54Speaker 3: only hit they ever had.
- 35:55Speaker 1: I think, hey, it works.
- 35:57Speaker 2: It looks like thematically. This is one that I'm not
- 35:59Speaker 2: real has been big in country music. Is smoke. It's
- 36:03Speaker 2: pickup trucks and going to bars and finding the girls
- 36:05Speaker 2: and drinking.
- 36:06Speaker 1: And how many times are they rhyming fire and desire.
- 36:09Speaker 1: I just wonder, that's the hackiest, the hackiest doll. Thanks
- 36:13Speaker 1: for popping in. We appreciate the halftime injection. Here, Matt
- 36:17Speaker 1: Miller joins us about an hour from now, it's going
- 36:19Speaker 1: to be great to catch up with a new dad
- 36:21Speaker 1: and get his take on the latest from the box
- 36:22Speaker 1: office and all things culture. We got more coming up.
- 36:25Speaker 1: It's The Huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin continuing the Thursday
- 36:33Speaker 1: edition of The Huddle All the Smoke edition of The
- 36:36Speaker 1: Huddle drew an arm and bringing it to you billies
- 36:38Speaker 1: off today.
- 36:40Speaker 2: I'm ducking it today.
- 36:41Speaker 1: You're ducking the smoke. We're all duck in the smoke,
- 36:43Speaker 1: which is where I can't escape it. Just heard from
- 36:46Speaker 1: I just heard from the home base. My wife said,
- 36:48Speaker 1: it's seeping into our house.
- 36:50Speaker 2: A little bit. It's terrible. And then it's like your
- 36:53Speaker 2: first thought is like, ah, hey, it's some fresh air,
- 36:55Speaker 2: open the windows. Well, no, can't do this. You do
- 36:58Speaker 2: feel trapped and all of us you don't take your
- 37:00Speaker 2: fresh air for granted. I remember last year, was it
- 37:03Speaker 2: last year a couple of years ago, that some Wisconsin
- 37:06Speaker 2: legislators are trying to issue like a complaint to Canada,
- 37:10Speaker 2: and I think some people are making fun of it.
- 37:12Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, you make fun of it until you
- 37:13Speaker 2: have to breathe it in. I'm sorry. Yeah, it's a
- 37:16Speaker 2: little bit of a privilege to have it not and
- 37:18Speaker 2: you don't realize like, oh, well, you're not dealing with
- 37:21Speaker 2: what we're dealing with here. So it's kind of brutal
- 37:23Speaker 2: out there, but hopefully it blows away soon. Drew seeing
- 37:26Speaker 2: different reports about when people think it might dissipate, anticipate
- 37:30Speaker 2: soon enough for me, whatever it's going to take.
- 37:32Speaker 1: You know, h eight seven seven seven nine three year
- 37:36Speaker 1: ticket to the Nicolay Law dot com talk and text
- 37:38Speaker 1: on a couple of plates spinning. How do you like
- 37:39Speaker 1: the Brewish trade for Lance mccolors. They traded Jaden Fielder
- 37:43Speaker 1: and they picked up his salary and other than that,
- 37:45Speaker 1: and they did pick up Colton Gordon, who might be
- 37:49Speaker 1: the key to the deal. We'll see you left the
- 37:50Speaker 1: twenty seven year old lefty who some high numbers. But
- 37:54Speaker 1: let's let's let Chris Hook and Jim Henderson have ad him.
- 37:57Speaker 1: Let's see how he does. We're asking about that gut
- 38:00Speaker 1: punch losses England losing to me. It brought back memories
- 38:05Speaker 1: of Pete Alonzo homering off Devin Williams, just a just
- 38:08Speaker 1: a shattering loss there. We're also talking about bucket list
- 38:13Speaker 1: items because my pal Danny Needles played St. Andrews yesterday,
- 38:17Speaker 1: crossing of that off the bucket list. It's he's gonna
- 38:19Speaker 1: remember that for the rest of his life. So we're
- 38:21Speaker 1: asking about bucket list things. Arman with a controversial take
- 38:24Speaker 1: about golf courses.
- 38:26Speaker 2: Like, what's the point. It's the big deal for all
- 38:27Speaker 2: the trees and water and grass, right, So I don't know.
- 38:31Speaker 1: Also, a friend of show Andy and West Bend, I
- 38:34Speaker 1: would like us to make a public service announcement. If
- 38:36Speaker 1: you're driving out there right now, turn your lights on. Yeah,
- 38:39Speaker 1: it's really smokey and that that Hayes is real and
- 38:43Speaker 1: you can't see other cars, so turn your lights on.
- 38:45Speaker 2: That man Steve hit the beach at five am and
- 38:47Speaker 2: try and get pictures or picture Steve photo, Steve whatever.
- 38:50Speaker 2: And he said, it's just really smokey out there. It's awful,
- 38:52Speaker 2: really quick. Jarkin on Twitter on YouTube excuse me, I'm
- 38:56Speaker 2: behind the stream, but I want to put this in.
- 38:57Speaker 2: There's a buck list. Adams Sporting meant the Pelllio horse
- 39:00Speaker 2: raising Siena, Italy. Yes, Jerry and plodtruck. Yes, that is
- 39:04Speaker 2: one of the most That was kb's favorite. I went
- 39:06Speaker 2: to Siena with my one trip to Italy that with
- 39:09Speaker 2: my wife a few years ago. You will see some
- 39:11Speaker 2: of the YouTube of that those horse races. That is
- 39:14Speaker 2: a wild ride right there about running with the Bulls.
- 39:16Speaker 2: That's another one. Pampalona, right, another one. So a lot
- 39:19Speaker 2: going on, all right.
- 39:20Speaker 1: So our current electric superhero the day we're gonna go
- 39:22Speaker 1: into a special direction. I got two of them actually
- 39:24Speaker 1: from the SPE's. I didn't watch the SP's, keeping my
- 39:26Speaker 1: streak alive of not watching the SPS. But apparently they
- 39:29Speaker 1: did give an award last evening to Jim Abbott.
- 39:32Speaker 2: Yes, that was awesome.
- 39:33Speaker 1: I got to meet Jim Abbott when he pitched for
- 39:35Speaker 1: the Brewers briefly at the very end of his career,
- 39:37Speaker 1: and he was just a great dude. And it was
- 39:39Speaker 1: fun covering him and getting to know him a little bit.
- 39:41Speaker 1: And you know, he was outside of the spotlight. He
- 39:44Speaker 1: had already pitched for the Yankees, pitches no hitter and everything.
- 39:46Speaker 1: But he was fantastic. So I'm gonna hit in the
- 39:49Speaker 1: big leagues. And I think he had no hitter, right,
- 39:51Speaker 1: he had no hitter for the Yankies.
- 39:52Speaker 2: Amazing feat of perseverance to do what he did. So
- 39:57Speaker 2: he's won.
- 39:57Speaker 1: And then also because it's ESPN, they they were asking
- 40:00Speaker 1: people and ask people where they thought Lebron would end
- 40:02Speaker 1: up and leave it to Anna Lee Waters who nobody
- 40:07Speaker 1: would in our audience would probably know. My sister probably
- 40:09Speaker 1: knows because she follows pickleball very closely pro professional pickleballer.
- 40:14Speaker 1: She said, I don't know, but I know the owner
- 40:16Speaker 1: of the Professional Pickleball League just bought the Portland basketball team,
- 40:19Speaker 1: the Trailblazers. I know he's trying to get lebron So
- 40:21Speaker 1: we'll see if it happens.
- 40:22Speaker 2: Let's go.
- 40:23Speaker 1: So she threw that into the mix, and now Portland's
- 40:25Speaker 1: all fired up.
- 40:26Speaker 2: She dropped the tidbit in there.
- 40:27Speaker 1: Superheroes from Current Electric Call Current dot com is their website.
- 40:30Speaker 1: You see the vans driving around the Milwaukee area with
- 40:32Speaker 1: the superheroes on the side. Use them for your electrical needs.
- 40:35Speaker 1: Call Current dot com seven o'clock hour. We're gonna dominate.
- 40:38Speaker 1: Matt Miller is gonna join us as well. You're in
