  Speaker 1: it all up this weekend. Some great weather out there,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: and obviously a holiday celebration. Did you celebrate? Did you
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: really let your hair down at the softball fields for
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Mother's Day? Did you feel very loved and appreciated and
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: respected and allowed to be pampered? You feel all of
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: that yesterday?
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Definitely pampered.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: When my alarm went off at five forty five on
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: Saturday and Sunday, jeez, I thought to myself.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Now, this is how you celebrate a mom right here.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: You tell her, Hey, we love you, we appreciate you,
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: we're excited to celebrate you. We're so excited we're gonna
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: do it. At six forty five, that's when you got
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: to be at the field. Let's go, moms. And as
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: a person who really likes my slow, yeah, I don't
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: like to have to set an alarm, just like, at
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: least one day a week, I like to not be
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: able to not have to set an alarm. So when
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: I have to go every single day of the week
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: and that alarm is set before six am every day,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: it's not ideal.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I might just stop short of saying that you
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: love your sleep. You clearly love your daughter. I do. Yeah,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: So it was fun to watch her, So that took precedence.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: But yeah, if you loved your sleep, it would be
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: probably like you're gonna have to find your own ride.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Well, and the fun funny thing that you bring up
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: like that, I if I love my sleep, but I
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: love my daughter. My daughter loves her sleep. Oh and
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: she was. She was not the only one. They were
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: all real tired by the second game yesterday.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: So we had five games that were the weekend.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: But and then they swam in the hotel pool that
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: looked like a dungeon.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Mm and that's what sounds wonderful thing?
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: Yes, well, because yes, exactly, it really was.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: So I will say, we went swimming in our hotel
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: pool and it was really nice. But then a bunch
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: of other people were staying in a hotel down the street.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: She of course wanted to swim with her teammates.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Okay, so I it happened to be at the bottom
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: of a castle.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: It did, okay, Yeah, and it was the darkest, smallest
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: pool I've ever seen. Oh, and I thought, okay, we're
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: gonna go over to their pool.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be great.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna bring my little to go cup of wine
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: because now we're done with games for Saturday and it's
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: Mother's Day weekend, so we can all have a cocktail
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: like we usually do.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: I was the only one with wine sitting in the
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: dungeon pool.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: Oh huh.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: I was like, what's happening today? Huh? Where are all
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: the people that normally drink with me?
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Am I not? Is this not Mother's Day?
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: I thought?
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: I was like, maybe I have morphed into a wolverine.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: A wolverine is what I thought.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Yep. Well, I don't know. I don't know why people
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: weren't participatory.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: I know they had to some cocktails later. It was fine.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: They made up for it.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: But you know, when you're sitting in a dark dungeon,
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: the one thing you could have going for you is
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: a glass of pino greshow. Mmm.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: So I had mine and I enjoyed it.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Yeah, well I'm sorry. It was an ideal.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Oh it was fine.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: I was with my family, that's all that mattered.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, But we got to do something about it.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: We got to get some sort of wall passed that
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: doesn't allow for a mother to have to watch five
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: softball games over Mother's Day week.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: I mean, I wouldn't hate that idea.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: And the best thing gave me the hook. Yeah exactly.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: It's just a loss on my choice.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: They sell these sweatshirts at all these tournaments, right, and
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: it's got the name of the tournament and whatever, fun logo,
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: and all the moms are like, oh my gosh, this
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: sweatshirt is so cute, and all the girls, oh, the
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: sweatshirt is so cute.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: I want the sweatshirt.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: I want the sweatshirt, and I refuse to buy the
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: sweatshirt because I will say it was very stinking cute,
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: But I am not buying a sweatshirt to celebrate that.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: You're celebrating mothers with a softball tournament?
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Not doing it?
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to put your foot down, that's right.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: So I did not buy the switch, sh Okay.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Why didn't they just buy one for you?
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, if you really want to celebrate moms, right,
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: then when mom brings her kid to the softball field, yeah,
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: give her a sweatshirt.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Right. All you got to do is bring a birth
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: certificate to prove that you're a mom. Yeah, and then
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: you get a free cute sweatshirt, yeah, to celebrate Mother's Day.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: You're full of great ideas.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I know. I know nobody ever listens, nobody ever jots
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: them down, But you could really do the world a
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: lot of good if you just pay attention. Well, I'm
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: sure you had a good time. I did. You had
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: good weather, hang out with your family, and you got
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: to sip peanut, a white wine and a dungeon. I
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: do not a lot of people got to do it.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: When you put it that way.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I remember being a kid though, and like I
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: had an aunt and uncle that would like come into town,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: and good for them, because a lot of aunt and
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: uncles in the Midwest, you just end up imposing, okay,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: and so you just you know, and and Midwest people
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: will but like, you know, they want you to stay
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: at their house. Why would you stay at a hotel?
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: But I had this one uncle and he wasn't in
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the family. He married into the family, and he would
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: always stay at the at the hotel in Alton, nearby town.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: He was like, I'm not staying under anybody's roof. Now.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Aunt Ruth would stay with us, but he would always
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: stay in at the hotel. And I didn't I didn't
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: put two and two together. I just thought he was
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: rich or something. Yeah, that's what I thought as a kid.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: But once every time we would go, we would go
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: to the hotel, uh and go for a swim. And
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: I remember thinking chlorine was like the smell of rich people. Yeah,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: because they had an indoor pool inside the hotel, right
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: like right on the first floor. Yeah. And I used
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: to just think to myself because you know, we had
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: we were above ground people, above ground pool people. I
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: used to think to myself, man, that smell of chlorine.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: When it's smell, I mean, that is just luxury. That's
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: what I thought as a kid, not realizing that he
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: was staying at a pretty cheap hotel and that they
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: were killing all of the germs inside the pool by
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: like triple chlorinating.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what you got to do.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: So Yeah, the things that you think as a kid,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: and then the things you grow up to understand.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then you think, gosh, I.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Wish I had dungeon, man.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: I wish I could have just thought it was as
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: still thought it was as cool as it was when
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: I was a kid.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Right right. And then all of a sudden, you're like, oh,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: I get it. I understand that he hated my family. Yes,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: he did not want to be under the same roof
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: with him. It drove them crazy, correct, I now, as
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: an adult, understand why that it did. Yeah, and even
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: to the point where Aunt Ruth would stay with us
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: and he would stay in the hotel by himself, just
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: so he could create the distance.
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the part that makes it very obvious. He
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: did not want to be around of you guys. If
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: Ruth stayed there with him. Then they could have gone
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: with we don't want to pose, but Ruth really ruined it,
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: blew up his cover.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: All right, well, welcome into the show. We've got a
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: lot to discuss here on a Monday. We do have
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: a baseball team that gagged it over the weekend to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: break down. But I'm not going to start with it.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I just I don't have the heart to start with
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: it today. It would be like being in a pool
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: inside a dungeon with no white wine. That's how difficult
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: it would be for me to really start the show
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: talking about the Mariners here today. Now, I'm going to
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: talk about the NBA because we saw something that we
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: just kind of defies the reputation of the league yesterday
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: San Antonio Spurs Minnesota Timberwolves. I mean, the face of
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: the NBA, I Get is still a forty one year
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: old playing in Los Angeles. As polarizing as he is,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: he's still the guy that pretty much grabs the best ratings.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: And even those that hate him apparently watch him whenever
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: they can, yes, so that they can criticize him. But
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: he's about to pass the baton, and maybe he's already
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: done so in terms of popularity to a seven foot
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: five inch alien that plays for the San Antonio Spurs.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: So that's what's that's where the NBA is heading. And
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I think everybody in the world's on board with that.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, we are just seeing in Lebron, we saw
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: something we've never seen before, and in Victor Wimbanyama, we're
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: seeing something that we've never seen before. And now that
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: he has arrived at true superstar MVP type status, the
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: transition's happening before our eyes. Forty one year old's getting
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: eliminated in a sweep in the second round of the
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: NBA playoffs, and Victor Wimbanyama is thinking about possibly winning
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: a championship. So this little transition has taking place right
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: before our eyes. And so maybe we got the indication yesterday.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Maybe not that he's not quite there yet because he
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: got thrown out of a playoff game, which you know,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: kind of flies in the face of the reputation of
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: the NBA as special rules for their special players. But
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I give the officials credit in the game yesterday because
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: the way the broadcasters were talking, it looked like they
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: is that that might be that might raise to a
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: flagrant one. And then the play by play guy's like, no,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: that's a flagrant too. Yeah, but they there was this
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: sort of they're not going to throw the face of
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: the league out on a Sunday night, you know on NBC, right,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, they're not. They're not gonna do that, are they.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: I mean it will look bad. He elbowed a guy
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: in the face and it looked intentionally, but yeah, they're
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: gonna They're gonna explain this away, right, And no, the
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: officials kicked Wombin Yama out of the game, and they
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: should have. And so from that standpoint, I was like, good, good,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: you know it.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: It doesn't matter who you are.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: I get that you have to I get you have
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: to adjust it a little bit subtly to favor the
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: superstars a little bit. I understand that. I think maybe
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: we appreciate that, But on the flip side, I don't
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: want to see such preferential treatment that he's going to
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: get away with that. On the other hand, wasn't as
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: interested in the game anymore, That's true, and I'm sure
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of people weren't. I mean, I did watch
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: it and it ended up being very entertaining, but I
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: would imagine some people on a beautiful Sunday Mother's Day,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: were like, you know what, I'm just gonna go talk
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to mom. Oh yeah, and as opposed to watching the
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: NBA game last night, and so you know, you do
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: lose Wimbin Yama for the contest, and so it wasn't
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: quite it's not interesting when he is not out there.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: And then the other aspect of it is what Mitch
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Johnson Seattle Light said after the game where he rallied
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: to his Superstars defense and said, look, I get why
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: he was thrown out of the game. I get that
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: it was a flagrant too. We understand that, but it
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: would have never happened if my star player didn't get
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: beat up every single time up and down the court. Ye.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: It was a moment of frustration for him while he
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: was being fouled again by two players and the officials
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: not calling it. It's like, it's very clear what's happening
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: in the league. We have a guy that's nearly impossible
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: to stop because he's seven foot five and runs, you know,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: pretty much is like a giraffe, you know, with arms,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: and that's hard to stop on a basketball floor. The
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: only weakness that he has when you look at him
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: is he's skinny as can be, and so it looks
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: like you can be physical with him and maybe take
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: him out of his game. So that's obvious anybody that
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: just lay eyes on them and you need to see
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: him play basketball. They see a seven foot five guy,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: they're like, oh boy, we're gonna have to get physical
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: with this guy. We knock him on the ground a
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: couple of times, then maybe we take him out of
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: the game. So Mitch Johnson saying last night, I get
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: why you kicked him out of the game, but it
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: is disgusting those there actual his words. It is disgusting
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: that it had to come to that because my guy
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: keeps getting beat up. And there was a little bit
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: of if he's the superstar of the league, if he's
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: the face of the league, why are we allowing him
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: to get mauled every single night where his his anger
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: would reach a boil where he would throw an elbow.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: This is not some dirty player. This is just somebody
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: trying to defend himself, defend his territory who snapped in
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the moment and intentionally threw an elbow at somebody that
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: was up in his grill. And so there's I mean,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of sides to it, and I do
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: think Mitch Johnson's got a point here. But on the
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: other hand, I was actually kind of glad that the
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: NBA didn't fall prey to the same old reputation that
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: it has that superstars get the benefit of the doubt,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: superstars get the calls. Superstars they if they throw an
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: elbow in a game, we might try to justify it
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: as a flagrant one. So I'm a little bit torn
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: on it because I get I get the idea of
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: protecting them, but I also sort of enjoyed the fact
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: that he was treated like everybody else in the league.
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, And I think to Mitch Johnson's point, yes,
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: he had a point, it is yeah, But I think
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I wonder if the refs kind of have a hard
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: time of officiating somebody who's seven five and can't be
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: stopped as well, and they they wonder like, well, do
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: we have to be a little more lenient on the
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: fouls because that's the only way they can try to
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: stop him. And to Minnesota's credit, I don't think they
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: knew for sure that their plan was gonna work that
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: if you drive him crazy this whole game, because he
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: hasn't done this, he has remained cool and calm and collected.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: So if we poke, poke, poke, poke poke, will he
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: lose it and get himself ejected? I don't think that
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: was the no no, but I'm saying, but like to
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: poke him and kind of, you know, bother him, take him.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Out of oh, the strategy to beat him up. The
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: strategy is to beat him up. And Mitch Johnson's like,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: if you're going if you're not going to police him
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: getting beat up. I'm not surprised that he threw an
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: elbow at something right.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Right, and it was nice to see that.
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Yes, he was treated just like anybody else who threw
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: an elbow in that situation. Although if you listen to
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: national people, they're still trying to defend one.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: Of that that was he didn't throw it that hard.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: That shouldn't have been a flagrant too.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: It's like, well, okay, if anybody else had thrown it,
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: you would have thought it was a flagrant too.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: It was a flagrant too, and he should have been
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: tossed for it. But I also think Mitch Johnson's right
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: like all you know, yeah, teams are targeting him, and
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: you know what, I know that most people that watch
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: basketball say he shouldn't get preferential treatment, that no one
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: should get preferential treatment. But then again, it's happened throughout
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: the course of the entire league. Shack was very difficult
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: to officiate because he was so much bigger and stronger
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: than everyone else. So you you he ended up getting
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: fouled more than everybody Shack, Well, that was to put
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: him on the free throw line, but he ended up
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: getting fouled more than anybody else because the officials kind
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: of subconsciously thought he could take it. Well, now, the officials,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: I think consciously are saying, I know they're trying to
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: beat him up, but I can't come off as like
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to protect him.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Just because he's skinny and tall.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Because he's skinny and tall, and because that's going to
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: come across like we're giving him preferential treatment. So there's
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: just this very fine line right now that the NBA
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: is walking. And so I was impressed that the officials
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: are like, there are no sacred cows out here on
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: this floor. Yeah, you know, we're going to take him
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: out of the game because that's what the foul warranted.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: But I also agree with Mitch Johnson like, hey, you're
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: going too far the other way. You're letting him get
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: the hell beat out of him because you don't want
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: it to look like he's getting preferential treatment. They are
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: attacking him because he's skinny, and you're let and you're
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: not calling it because he's skinny. So he's losing both ways,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: and I need it to stop right now, otherwise we're
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: going to get knocked out of the playoffs. You're handing
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: the Timberwolves the blueprint on how to beat us and
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: how to frustrate our superstar, and it should not be
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: happening in the middle of these playoffs.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I absolutely agree.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be very interesting to see how they handle
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: it in the next game, because I will be curious.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: Will they call fouls on him a little more closely,
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: I don't know, or will they stick stick with their
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: game plan and just hope. You know, san Antoni is
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: just gonna have to hope that he doesn't get frustrated.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm very curious to see.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: I don't think he'll do that again. But what I'm
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: curious to see, I don't I think he'll he will
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: have learned his lesson what I'm curious to see is
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: if the officials are going to call it more closely
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: when it comes to him going forward. If Adam Silver
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: really does manipulate it so that his star players, the
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Jordan rules, those guys are taken care of. You're probably
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: you know, if that's true, then somebody's going to the
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: officials before the game and saying, hey, we're not letting
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Wimbin Yamaga get the hell beat out of him again.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: So we'll see, we'll see how it's what happens. But
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: now now it's under a microscope.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: Right, I'm gonna be tuned in, ready to watch.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Now Timberwill are braced for Oh, now they're going to
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: start protecting him. Now they're going to treat him like
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: a baby. Now they're gonna put him in you know,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: bubble wrap, which they might do. So that next game
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: will be on Tuesday. It'll be interesting to see how
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: the league and its officials proceed. All right, let's find
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: out what's on tap for the rest of the show.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: What's on te what's unt all right? So that series
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: is even a two games apiece. The Knicks one over
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Philadelphia yesterday by thirty. My goodness, I thought Philadelphia had
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: a chance in that series, but Joelle Embiid goes out early,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: misses a couple of games, and Philly never ever got
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: in this series. So you know, I have been guilty
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: of underestimating this knixt team. They're moving on to the
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Eastern Conference Finals. They swept the Philadelphia seventy six ers.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: They await the winner of Detroit and Cleveland. That series
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: will have game four tonight in Cleveland with the Pistons
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: up two to one. Meanwhile, OKC up three to zero
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: on the Los Angeles Lakers and we'll probably sweep them
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: out tonight starting at seven thirty. The NBA lottery was
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: held yesterday. I'm so angry that we didn't talk about
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: this on Friday, but we will get to it today
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: at a couple of times during the course of the show.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: The Washington Wizards end up with the number one pick.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Since they changed the system in twenty nineteen, it's the
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: first time a team with the worst record in the
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: NBA actually won the NBA lottery, So the Wizards have
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: the number one selection in this year's loaded NBA Draft
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Stanley Cup Playoffs. Montreal is up to one on Buffalo
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: or the Canadians. Are they the best team in the East?
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Six to two the final score over the Sabres last night. Meanwhile,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and I'm four to three winners over Las Vegas. That
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: series is even at two games apiece. The PGA Championship
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Week is here. Also, it's NFL schedule. We've already had
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: one announcement, already one leak. Of course, Adam Schefter is
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: leaking it. The first Sunday night game will be the
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: Giants hosting the Dallas Cowboys, so that got leaked just
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: this morning. We'll have all sorts of leaks. Stay here
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: for complete leak coverage on your favorite radio station KJR.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: And the Mariners I depend Yeah, Man Deon Sanders is
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: cool when he even can be cool selling leakage, right.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: The White Sox won over the Mariners yesterday. Two to
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: one was the final score, so the MS end up
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: losing two out of three games to the White Sox
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: over the weekend. They are nineteen and twenty two, still
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: can't get it right. They'll be in Houston to start
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: a four game series tonight. Five to ten. First pitch,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Brendan Donovan returned to the team, not that that helped much,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: and Bryce Miller's going to return to the team Wednesday,
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: which we'll talk about a little bit later on in
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: the show, but we'll recap yesterday's loss and talk about
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: the lowly state of the Mariners forty one games into
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: their season. Next it's Chuck and Ashley with you on
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio ninety three point three KJARFM Mariners Morning After.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: It's our daily recap, well not daily because they don't
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: play every day, but after every Mariners game, we do
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: a segment at six thirty. It's going to stay here,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: by the way, We're gonna go ahead and anchor it,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: but we'll adjust the rest of the show in other
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: ways going forward. But the Mariners go to Chicago South
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Side of Chicago, which seemed to be the easier path
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the way the Cubs have played so far this season.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Luke Raley starred on Friday night in a twelve eight
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: victory for the Mariners, and you just thought to yourself, oh, well,
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: we're at least going to get two out of three
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: then yeah, out of this weekend series. But of course,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: so we can never beat a left hander, that's a rule.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: So we lost six to one on Saturday, and then
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: it came to Sunday, the rubber match. Will at least
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: let's get out of here with two out of three,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: let's win the series. Logan Gilbert was like great idea.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: So Logan goes out there and was the best he's
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: been all season long. He goes six innings, he allows
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: one hit, he strikes out nine and doesn't allow a
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: single run. Well, the Mariners have their best bullpen guys
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: kind of all you know, all loose and warmed up
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: and rested, and so Dan Wilson decides to take Logan
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Gilbert out of the game, even though he's mowing through
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: the White Sox lineup.
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: Retired what sixteen in a row.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: So he goes to Bizardo in the seventh and immediately
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: there were problems. Then in the seventh inning as the
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Chicago excuse me seventh inning, he went to Farrer, excuse me.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: So Farrer allows some base runners, but he gets out
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: of the inning on a fantastic play by Cole Young
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: to throw out speedy Tristan Peters and keep it one
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: to nine. And you thought to yourself, oh boy, bullet
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: dodged at that point. Then in the eighth Dan Wilson
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: calls upon Eduardo Bizardo to hold on to a one
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: nothing lead and hand it over to Munosa in the ninth.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Problem was that he's greeted by veteran Randall Gritchik with
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: a home run to left field to tie it up.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: And then the very next batter, the ninth hitter, Drew Romo,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: doubles off of him, and now all of a sudden,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: the go ahead run is at the plate. A sacrifice
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: bunt got Romo to third. An intentional walk to Morikami
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: probably was not a good idea because he strikes out
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: so much, and then you decided, let's face off against
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: a much better hitter in terms of putting the ball
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: in play in Vargas, and this is what went down.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: But again, the most important thing is that that run
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: on third base does not.
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: Score Byron Shadow left Randy charging it makes the catch,
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: Here comes a throw home Robo.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: It says, well.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: Over cal Ray at the plate and the White Sox
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: have taken the lead on a sacrifice fly by mcgual Varias.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Migul Vargas comes through there to make it two to
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: one White Sox and they would hold on with Sir
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: Anthony Dominguez, one of the finest swordsmen in all of America.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: I remember the day he was knighted.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: It's great, it was he got to save. The White
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Sox end up defeating the Mariners two to one on
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Sunday and winning the series two games to one. As
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: depressing as that is. So I don't really have a
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: problem with Dan Wilson's pitching decisions. I think he could
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: have kept Logan in the game.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: I don't, but the pitching wasn't the problem.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah wait, I we'll get to that in a moment.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I don't hate it, certainly, And you know, at that stage,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: the feeling is Ferrer's been pitching, well, Bizardo's been pitching, Well,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: let's go to the fresher guys. We're not gonna you know.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: So they don't face them face the top of the
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: face a lineup for the third time, Logan Gilbert. So
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: that's the decision that went into it. I would have
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: stayed with Logan for at least another inning, but that
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: doesn't impact what happened in the eighth. Gritchick ambushes Bizardo
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: and ties things up, and then the double giving up
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: to Roma was really the backbreaker. But the White Sox
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: go on to win it by a final score of
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: two to one. Here's Dan Wilson afterwards.
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: Certainly a hard fought one today. You know, it didn't
• 27:39
  Speaker 6: go our way. You know, heads off to Logan and
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: the way he pitched. I thought he and Cal worked
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: a tremendous game plan, you know today and you know,
• 27:49
  Speaker 6: just doing what he does getting ahead and not getting
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: into a lot of deep counts. I thought he, you know,
• 27:56
  Speaker 6: had it all going today. He just you know, six
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: to set sixteen down in a row.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: That's that's tough to do. And and he was on
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: a roll.
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: He felt good, he felt confident, and gave us a
• 28:06
  Speaker 6: chance to get deep into the ballgame. And and you know,
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: turn it over the bullpen. You know, I think offensively
• 28:12
  Speaker 6: we're able to get the one in the first we
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: had other opportunities, you know, first inning included, and then
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: later on to add on, we just you know, we
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: weren't able to transfer those into runs. And you know,
• 28:24
  Speaker 6: it caught up to us there at the end of
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: the ball game, and and we tried to come back
• 28:27
  Speaker 6: there again in the ninth, you know, but just we're
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: just unable to convert that you know, chance into ato
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: into a run.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Well, Yeah, he usually doesn't say much. So the Mariners
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: lose by a final score of two to one. Yeah,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: I think I could have done something. I'm not taking
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Logan Gilbert out yet, but he wasn't going to go
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: the entire distance. So you're still gonna have to rely
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: on somebody in your bullpen that you usually see come through.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: They were going to have to come through, and Bizardo,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: who's been really good for the last couple of years,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: just did not come through in the game. Also, defensively,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, Randy a Rose Arena is just an absolute circus.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was an easy opportunity to gun down
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: or run er at home and he doesn't have his
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: timing down, can't get the ball out of his glove
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: and ends up sailing it completely over the catcher's head.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: But we should be accustomed to that. We don't have
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: a good defense right now, so we have a manager
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: who who's bullpen decisions we've questioned in the past. You
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: could have questioned them again yesterday the way Gilbert was
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: on a roll, and we don't have a good defense.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: But neither of those things is why we didn't win
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: this series.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: No, we couldn't score more than two or more than
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: one run.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: We didn't win because this offense is just pathetic right
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: now and cannot sustain any sort of momentum whatsoever. One
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: run on Saturday, one run on Sunday, the Mayor hitting
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: two twenty nine, that's twenty seventh in Major League Baseball,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: twenty fourth and runs scored with one sixty seven. We
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: seem to have zero hope against the left handed starting
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: pitcher with our lineup right now, and cal Raley, let's
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: face it, he's got to take a lot of the
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: brunt of this. Cal Raley looks completely lost. This is somebody,
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: and we can't blame the organization. I'm reading stuff about
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: roster construction. There is nothing wrong with the roster construction
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: on this team. This is that, as I said, they
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: dug a hole because they had their three best hitters
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: couldn't hit, so they dug a hole and they can't
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: get out of the hole because our best hitter is
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: absolutely lost at the plate, and I mean all around hitter.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Cal Raley entered superstar status and right now he has
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: a liability in the lineup, and I'm sure it's not
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: going to stay that way, but he looks lost at
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: the plate. He looks worse now than he has at
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: any point this season. And when you don't get any
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: contribution out of somebody that you were counting on so
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: heavily when the season began, it's hard to win one
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: run games. Because you always play one run games, you're
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: not going to win them when your best player never hits.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: That is hard to It is hard to win that way.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: And yeah, he just looking at his last five games
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: four oh for four for five, oh for four over three.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: That's not good.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: I think he's for his last thirty.
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just I don't know, and I I don't
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: know how he how he gets fixed. I don't know
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: how he gets righted. I know he will, but I
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: don't know how it happens.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Well, he's got to catch up with the fastball. If
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Bucky was here, he'd tell you you got to be
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: on time with the fastball. That's the first and thing.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: And he's getting just consistently beat upstairs, and then he's
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: thinking about how to get out ahead. And then when
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: you're thinking about how to get out ahead so that
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: you're not beaten by the fastball up now, all of
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: a sudden, you're cheating on your front leg and now
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: you're susceptible to off speed stuff. I mean, he is
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: just lost at the plate. They've got a blueprint. He
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: can't he can't make up for his deficiencies, and you
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: know he's working tirelessly at it. You know, Kevin Sitzer
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: and Edgar Martinez are working tirelessly with him to try
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: to get him out of this. They're the same people
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: that were there at his side for his sixty homer
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: season a year ago, and they're at his side right
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: now trying to get him on track. Just try to
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: get the ball in play for goodness sake, which he's
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: just struggling with that. Never dreamt that we would be.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, Ryan Healey said, don't judge anybody until you're
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: forty games into the season. Well we are forty one
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: games into the season. He has a one sixty one
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: batting average. He has a five to seventy three OPS
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: at this point, and I know he's coming off a
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: little bit of a side injury and maybe it's still
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: bothering him. I don't know, but if.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: It's still bothering him, then maybe he should rest.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Well, he's just he's a liability right now. You got
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: to keep going with him. It's not like you bench him. No,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: you got to keep going with him and expect him
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: to come out of this. But if you're looking for
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: a reason why this team, there are several reasons why
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: this team's off to a nineteen and twenty two start,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: but he's right there at the top of the list
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: that cal has just been that ineffective so far this season.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: So rough go, rough, go for the big dumpers so
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: far this year. Tonight, the team is in Houston and
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: they've done pretty well against the Houston Astros here as
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: of late. It'll be George Kirby who dominates Houston going
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: for us. First pitch is at five to ten this evening,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: and the Astros will throw Peyton Lambert, young right hander
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: not exactly renowned. So we should have the pitching matchup
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: there tonight against the Astros. First pitch at five to ten.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: So I think can't think of any better medicine than
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: to sweep the Astros in a four game series to
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: get you back on track.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: That make me feel a little bit better, that's for sure.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: But nothing. No way that they're playing right now gives
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: you the indication that they're on the verge of that happening,
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: we'll talk more Mariners, we'll talk more about the offense
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: coming up a little bit later on in the show Defense,
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Bryce Miller's return. All of that coming your way at
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: seven o five today. But coming up next, it is
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: NFL schedule release week, and we already have some little
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: nuggets that are flying around in the National Football League.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Will update you also try to predict who the Seahawks
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: are going to play and their season opener as the
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: defense of the World Championship will begin Wednesday, September ninth.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: It is Chuck and Ashley with you Sports Radio ninety
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: three point three KHRFM. Well, rarely can such a little
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: amount of information tell you so much, but in this case,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: we kind of already know who the Seahawks are going
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: to draw on Wednesday by just the power of deduction.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: So their season is going to begin, we know, on
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: a Wednesday at home in defense of their Super Bowl championship.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: On September ninth. This is NFL's schedule release week, and
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: so we've already gotten a couple of nuggets from the past.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: And then just this morning Adam Schefter gave us the
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Sunday night opener of the season. It's going to be
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys taking on
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: one another in New York. So that'll be the first
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Sunday night game of the year. Now we already knew
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: because it's international and Kyle Shanahan doesn't like it that
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers and Rams are going to open
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: their season on a Thursday night in Melbourne. It's the
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: reason why we're playing on a Wednesday.
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: Which is stupid.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: So there's not a lot of information out there, and
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: yet that amount of information already takes four of the
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: nine possible opponents that the Seahawks would face in the
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: because we already know the Seahawks what opponents they will
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: have this year and whether they will play them whole
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: more away. So that's the information that we have in
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: anticipation of Thursday's NFL schedule release, and it's not a
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: lot of information, but we can pretty much just deduce
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: who they're going to play based off of that little
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: amount of information. So you know the forty nine Ers
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: and Rams, and you know the Giants and Cowboys. That's
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: four of the nine home games that the Seahawks will
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: play this year. Four of their nine home opponents that
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: they're going to play this year. So that leaves the Bears,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: the Cardinals, the Chargers, the Chiefs, and the Patriots. Let's
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: work from the back of the list. There is no
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: chance in hell that the NFL is going to have
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: the Mike Vrabel Diana rue Clown Show on the first
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: game of the season. They're not going to launch their
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: season with the entire pregame show being about whether or
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: not Mike Rabel should have kept his job or not.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: There is no chance they are inviting that into their house.
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: No, And had that not happened, I would have thought, actually, yeah,
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: they'll go rematch of the Super Bowl to open up
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: the next season. There's a that is a high possibility
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: of that. But no, I would agree, yeah, no chance.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: No chance. So you can take the Patriots off of
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: the list. Kansas City Chiefs, that'd be a pretty interesting
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: matchup right there, like inter conference matchup, certainly. I mean,
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs got Kenneth Walker, great point, Kansas City
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: Chiefs have a high profiles, higher profile out there, Taylor
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: Swift could be in the building. All of this stuff
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: could go into it. But Patrick Mahomes had an injury
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: that was supposed to cost him a significant portion of
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: this upcoming season. There's no they're going to start the
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: season with a backup quarterback when it's not gonna be
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Seahawks versus the Chiefs and their backup quarterback. Now there
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: are rumors that Patrick Mahomes is so far ahead of
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: schedule that he's going to be ready for the start
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: of training camp. I mean that to me seems absurd,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: but that's the belief that Patrick Mahomes has done nothing
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: but rehab. He takes his doctor on the road with him,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: his trainer on the road with him, when he travels
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: with his family, and all he's done is rehab, and
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: they believe he's going to be good to go by
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: the start of training camp. But when yours schedule, when
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: you're announcing the schedule this Thursday, there's no way that
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: you can run the risk of Patrick Mahomes not being
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: ready for the start of the year. You're not going
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: to have all the bells and whistles so that we see,
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: you know, Sam Darnold versus Justin Fields on a Wednesday
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: night to start the season. So I think you can
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: cross the Kansas City Chiefs off the list, right the
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. No chance. I mean, there's no way. They're
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: in a rebuilding mode. I know it's a division opponent.
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: But it would be the most boring game.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not going to put the Cardinals, so you're
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: really just down between the Bears and the Chargers. And
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: you know, I could see them putting the Chargers up
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: against the Seahawks on opening night. I think the charge
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: is gonna be really good. Got a high profile head coach,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: got a high profile quarterback. A lot of people think
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: that they could be a sleeper in the conversation for
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: AFC champion this year. Maybe you do have to get
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: them early in the season before Justin Herbert's beat up
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: by week six, So maybe you could see that. But
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: that's if it's gonna be between the Bears and Chargers,
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: and it's gonna be between the Bears and Chargers. I
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: think we're gonna play the Chicago Bears on a Wednesday
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: night at home. Caleb Williams in Seattle bears a hot
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: ticket right now. Ben Johnson's a hot ticket right now.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: So my guess is that's your season opener. Seahawks hosting
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears Wednesday to start the year.
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: I don't hate that as the opening matchup at all.
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: I think that would be an exciting one I would
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: be I think not just Seahawks fans and Bears fans
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: would be intrigued by it. I think a lot of
• 40:17
  Speaker 4: people nationally would be intrigued by that matchup, just given
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: what we saw from the Bears last year and then
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: obviously the Seahawks being the raging Super Bowl champs.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think you can book it September ninth.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: Just prepare yourself if you're listening in Chicago, because we
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: might have talked about this today, go ahead book your flight.
• 40:36
  Speaker 4: And also good work you just knowing having your pulse
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: on what we do and don't talk about.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, all right, headlines. Next, you got your cash
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: contest word and of course, so we will discuss our
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: struggling baseball team. Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM
