• 1:50
  Speaker 2: I like that.

  Speaker 3: Yeah, V-E-R-Y, V-A-R-I-E-D.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: I will tell you this, though, before we dive into
• 1:56
  Speaker 6: hump day. And you know what we do to start
• 1:58
  Speaker 6: hump day. We start getting ready for our next opponent.
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: But I will say this. Christopher Kidd threw something out
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: in our meeting yesterday, because normally you hear, oh, man,
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: I just cannot wait to pour myself a bourbon.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: Or, oh, I can't wait to have a cold beer
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: tonight and just sit back and relax and.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: Watch the hockey game.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: That's me. That's literally me.
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: You know, Kidd's having himself just kind of a frustrating moment,
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: and he's like, you know what?
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: I'm just going to go home tonight and have myself
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: a hot cocoa.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: And part of me was like, that is very funny.
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: You just don't hear that from adult men a lot.
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: I'm just going to go ahead. I'm just going to relax,
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: going to let my hair down and just going to
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: sip on me a hot cocoa with marshmallows.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: You know, you just don't hear that a lot. And
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: yet there was another part of me that was like, gosh,
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: that sounds delicious. Man, that sounds good.
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: Man, kids got a good plan for tonight.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: A good life.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Did you have marshmallows? No marshmallows.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Did you have it? Yeah.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: We ran out of marshmallows a while back, but, you know,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: the hot cocoa at around 1 o'clock watching NBA was.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Whipped cream? No whipped cream.
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: Got the NBA starting tonight, and I'm going to have
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: myself a hot cocoa.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: You should get the marshmallows. Warned my soul. Yeah, I'm
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: going to buy you some marshmallows. But here's the point.
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: I went to the grocery store just to pick up
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: a couple of items, and I stood there in the
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: hot cocoa aisle, and I'm like, I'm getting something.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah!
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: And I stood there, and I studied the whole thing,
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: and yet, because I have a gluten-free household, because the
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: girlfriend is celiac, so we don't let anything cross our
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: door that could be contaminating her.
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: You got guns pointed at the door, just making sure...
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: Do you pass the test?
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: Well, I mean, just like, you know, I don't know
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: what it's like to have a celiac attack, so I
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: respect it. And so we don't have, I mean, it's
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: not like I only eat gluten-free items. I go out
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: and I eat other items, but, you know, the home
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: is sort of the sanctity, and so I try to
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: keep it as clean as possible.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: And you know that there's really not any hot cocoa
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: that is gluten-free? Really? Shocked the hell out of me.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: It's the weirdest things.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: The stuff you find that is gluten-free versus the stuff
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: you find that isn't.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: I'm like, why is there wheat in hot cocoa? Why
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: is that? And it's like one of the top ingredients.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: And there was one bag that was like... mushroom hot
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: cocoa and i'm like i am not going to drink
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: mushrooms just to avoid.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Probably start hallucinating.
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: Gluten just to have a hot cocoa while i watch
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: basketball when that's kids playground anyway exactly so i tried
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: i was gonna sit there right alongside you we were
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: gonna be cocoa buddies In different rooms, in different locations,
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: different zip codes. I had every intention to sit there
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: and sip on a hot cocoa and watch basketball. And
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: think about my friend Chris Kidd last night, but it
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: didn't come together for me.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you even got to the store and
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: was like, I'm going to do this.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Like, that's great.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I looked at all of them. Girardelli, all of them.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I'm like, what?
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, Girardelli's the way to go.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Come on, Al. Help me out here. Help a brother out.
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, can't a brother have a hot cocoa?
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: So anyway, I thought of you. You did do it, though,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: last night? Absolutely, man. Oh, man, look at that.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: I had my little red cup. It was a great game.
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Because Kid doesn't drink, by the way. I probably should
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: have made that clear. Kid does not drink. That is
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: his drink.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: 34 years sobriety.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, look at that.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: I'm 35.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Good for you, man.
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: I did it until I was 31, but I'm glad
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: I crossed over. I will always defend you not to
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: do it because it's really just poison we pour into
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: our bodies.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: But, yes, he doesn't drink, so that's why he didn't
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: have a beer or a.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Glass of wine or whiskey. That's way too cool for me.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Way too cool.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Just me having a glass of wine to start the
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: NBA season. I feel like people are like, who the
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: hell do you think you are?
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: I just love you sitting there with your big red mug.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: And my big blanket.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: You and Swiss Miss. Swiss Miss.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: What is your brand of choice?
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: My wife got from Chicago when she went on a
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: business trip, so I don't even know.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: But it's really good.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Okay. Chicago brand. Yeah. Chicago.
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: This guy's importing hot cocoa. That could have real bits
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: of sausage in there if it's from Chicago.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Hang on.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: You never know.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: What was the thing your dad made where you thought
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: meat was in it?
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: Oh, minced meat. Minced meat.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: That just came to my mind when you said that.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: There's meat in this? Apparently you can make hot cocoa
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: out of mushrooms. Why couldn't you make it out of
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: like a pork chop?
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Wouldn't be surprised.
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: Well, great morning to you all. It is a Wednesday
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: and we are, of course, getting ready for... what's shaping
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: up to be a pretty big game for the Seahawks
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: this Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs because a
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: loss will drop you a game under. 500, and yet
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: in order to get a win, you're going to have
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: to beat one of the best teams in the National
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: Football League, certainly the team of the last decade. They
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: did fall on hard times a year ago and missed
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: the playoffs, and they were struggling before Patrick Mahomes got hurt,
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: so it's not like last year was some standard that
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: they were going to try to keep. But they got
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: to the offseason. They make a pretty big free agent signing.
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: And this year, they're just playing unbelievable football right now.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: If it's not the San Francisco 49ers, it's the Kansas
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: City Chiefs that are playing the best football. And I'm
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: not just staring at an undefeated record. I mean, their
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: numbers across the board, they are a well-rounded team. And
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: maybe it's Walker that gave them that. but you have
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: the number two rushing offense in the National Football League
• 7:57
  Speaker 6: with the number one rusher in the National Football League.
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes is back on his game, and it's not
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: like he's not doing his part. He's still throwing over
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: 30 times a game for the Kansas City Chiefs, and
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: so they're throwing the football and they're being aggressive with it.
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: They're not top five in yards per game passing, but
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: I think Patrick is number two rushing yards per attempt
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: at this point. And so not having to throw as much,
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: and we can relate to this, a lot of the
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: numbers that Hugh throws out about Sam Darnold, if you
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: can establish that run, even if you're not running great,
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: if you can just keep the defense honest and then
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: you can attempt deep throws down the field, big plays,
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: big explosives, that's kind of the way you want to
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: operate in today's world. It's not like you have to
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: have a run-first offense to But when you do throw,
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: you don't want to be a dink and dunk offense.
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: You want to have the ability to make explosives, which
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: is what Sam did a year ago. But we're not
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: getting the Sam Darnold. Okay, we can live with the
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: interceptions if we're getting the explosives. We're really not getting
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: either of those things from him. But in Kansas City,
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: they're getting it from Patrick Mahomes, who's back to 100%,
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: and he's playing really great football again. They are down
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: some of their weapons. They're going to be down their
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: left tackle. Josh Simmons still isn't back. He did get activated,
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: his 21-day window, but he's not going to be ready
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: to play. Rasheed Rice continues to be a question mark,
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: but Travis Kelsey looks reborn somehow.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: I don't know how. Looks better than last year. Yeah,
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: he's looked.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: Better than he has the last three years, but he
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: looks a bit reborn at this point.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Marriage, I guess, has been good to his football game.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: I guess so.
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: But this is a Kansas City Chiefs team that right
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: now is number five in the National Football League in
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: points and number one in yards per game. So the
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: offense is going and the defense isn't too far behind either. Anders,
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: they're number eight in total defense, yards allowed, but two
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: in points allowed. So we're facing the team that's number
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: five in points scored and number two in points allowed.
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: We have the number one yards allowed defense in the
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: national football league. We're going to face the number one
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: yards per game offense in the national football league. So
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: The Kansas City Chiefs, based off of the first third
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: of the 2026 National Football League season, I think you
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: could say in every sense they are back. They are
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: back to being on top in the National Football League.
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: So this ain't going to be easy.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no.
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: And you mentioned something there. I think it is Kenneth Walker,
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: at least on the offensive side of the ball, that
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: has given that to them.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: You see what it brings.
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: It's really the first time Patrick Mahomes has had this
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: kind of guy at the running back position. Not just
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: someone who can run the football, obviously, but be a
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: threat in the passing game as well. And just give
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: the team more balance instead of asking him to play
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: hero ball for them to win games offensively. On the
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: defensive side of the ball, I do have question marks
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: because I know they've been really good for the last
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: three or four years. And that's how the Chiefs have
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: had success is more on the defensive side of the
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: ball with Steve Spagnuolo. But they've obviously lost Trent McDuffie,
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: other pieces as well. And I look at their schedule
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: and I don't really see an elite offense that they've
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: played yet. So and I realize like you can just
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: play the games on your schedule, but Colts, Broncos, Dolphins,
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: Raiders and Chargers. is who they've played offensively. Not a
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: lot of juggernauts in that group right there. So I
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: still have questions from their side of things whether their
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: defense is legit still after losing those pieces. But like
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: I said, they've proven that they can win games, obviously,
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: and their offense has definitely taken a step up than
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: it has the last couple years.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's a fair argument.
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: I mean, that might be the schedule where you do
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: ask who have you played And not just that, but
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: who have you played that offensively can challenge you? Are
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: the Seahawks that team? I think some argue right now
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: that they're not that team that can challenge you offensively.
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: So they're going to put points on the board. I'm
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: pretty sure even against Mike McDonald's defense, maybe not to
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: the clip that they've put them on the board to
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: this point in the season, but they're going to put
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: something on the board. And so you're going to need
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: Sam Darnold to get back to playing the way he
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: did a year ago at some point, and it might
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: as well be this week. If you still have your
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: eyes on the division, you're running out of time on
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: that front. And so from that perspective, I would say
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: that you're facing a well-rounded team this weekend, and they're
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: playing better than you, but you will have home field advantage,
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: and you will have a little extra prep for this game,
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: which Mike McDonald can always use And maybe the Chiefs
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: are ripe for losing their first game of the year.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: We'll see.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the last few weeks I've been like, OK,
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: this is the week the Seahawks are going to finally
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: play the complete game of football.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: OK, this is the week they've done it.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Well, you could argue the Chiefs have done it all
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: five weeks. That's a great point. They've really not done
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: anything poorly to this point.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: And everything I said about their schedule, the Seahawks had
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: a couple of cookies on their schedule, and one of
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: them being Washington, were still their only win of the season.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: So you got to take care of the teams in
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: front of you. And like you said, the Chiefs have
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: done that so far this season. The Seahawks have not.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: I would not be surprised, though. This is not only.
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: do you have, not only do you boast the best
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: defensive mind in the National Football League and the number
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: one ranked yards allowed defense in the National Football League,
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: even this year, even when they've had moments where they
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: were un-Seahawk-like, they still are proving to you week after
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: week that, no, no, no, no, we're the best. And
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: I think Ken Walker, there'll be a little extra motivation.
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: I'm sure Mike McDonald doesn't want to see No. 9
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: go off on Sunday. I said this to you yesterday.
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: I don't like looking at this as a revenge game
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: from either side. I don't think Ken Walker has any
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: reason to be vengeful coming into this game. You won
• 14:08
  Speaker 6: a Super Bowl, for goodness sake. John Schneider put faith
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: in you by drafting you.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: You should admire and respect that. He's the first one.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: We got you paid.
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah. Mike McDonald won you a Super Bowl. You won
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: a Super Bowl MVP. Kind of turned the offense over
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: to you for that game. And you got paid because
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: of your time here. And you didn't get overused in
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: your first four. So I don't see any reason that
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: he has.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: To feel vengeful.
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: And I don't see any reason why John Schneider and
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: Mike McDonald considering.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: how well they've cooked.
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: To this point in their marriage, have to feel like, oh,
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: we've got to prove to our fan base we haven't
• 14:48
  Speaker 6: lost our touch because we let go of Ken Walker.
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: I don't see either of those things being true, but
• 14:54
  Speaker 6: make no mistake about it. I mean, there will be
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: a little extra motivation. You're coming to our home turf.
• 15:02
  Speaker 6: You're wearing a different uniform. You were part of our
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: tribe a year ago. We don't want you going off
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: for 150 yards. First of all, we need to beat you.
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: And then number two, we certainly don't want you to
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: embarrass us because I don't really want.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: To answer the questions after the game is over.
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: So I think that there will be an all-out effort
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: to bottle up Ken Walker. I don't think he's going
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: to get 100 yards against us on Sunday night. But
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: then what does that do to you against Patrick Mahomes?
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: who I've just said seems to be right back on
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: the top of his game again, playing at a very
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: high level.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you can call it whatever you want, but I mean,
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: they're prideful. They're going to want to go out and
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: win this game no matter what the situation is.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: And even if.
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: they're not necessarily thinking, Oh, they have bad blood towards
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: Ken Walker or anything. I'm talking from the Seahawks perspective here.
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: They're still going to want to go prove, Hey, we
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: like everyone's writing us off. We still, we're still here guys.
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: Like I know you, everyone thinks that we made the
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: mistake here with letting Ken Walker go. And our running
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: game has been a real struggle. Um, We're going to
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: we can easily shut him down, too. So this this
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: defense is one of the best run defenses in the league. And,
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: you know, we definitely still feel again, talking from the
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: Seahawks perspective, we still feel like we have a good
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: enough roster to go win the Super Bowl this year.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: Well, we've got a lot more to discuss with this game,
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: not just today, but throughout the course of the week.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: But let's find out what else is on tap for
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: today's show. Have your attention, please.
• 16:34

• 16:47
  Speaker 3: You know, maybe this is Sunday night of Coco game.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: I could find some.
• 16:52
  Speaker 6: I mean, I didn't exactly scour the shelf. I'm like,
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: it needed to be obvious, you know, what I was
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: going to buy.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So I might go back and, you know.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Got to grab your attention. Turn some tables over and.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Try to figure out, get somebody from the back to
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: come out and help me.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: Susie!
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: I don't drink on Sundays, so this might be a
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: good Cocoa Sunday game.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: That rhymes, I think.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Cocoa Sundays?
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Cocoa Sundays. Sounds good.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: It sounds good.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: There we go. Yeah, it doesn't rhyme, but it's got
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: an appeal to it. There's no doubt. Cocoa Sunday.
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: My mom used to always do popcorn movies for us
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: when there was a family movie on. When she was
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: popping the popcorn right over the stove, old-fashioned style. Oh, yeah.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: We knew, oh, what's on tonight? Oh, it's Wizard of
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: Oz night, or whatever the case may be.
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: So maybe I'll start the Cocoa Sunday tradition here, inspired
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: by Christopher Kidd.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Gotta post it on Twitter. Cocoa Sundays with Chuck.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: Martini Fridays and Coco Sunday.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: Hey, there you go. You got yourself a tradition.
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: All right, Sunday night, Greg Bell's going to be with
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: us this morning, of course, at 7.05 to give us
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: the latest. Zach Charbonnet, Mike McDonald did confirm there is
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: a very good chance that he is going to play
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: on Sunday, but how much, that he wouldn't even reveal
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: if he knew. But at this stage, I think you
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: can plan on seeing Charbonnet get a few carries.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: We'll see how much they end up using him.
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: NFL week number seven will start tomorrow night in Chicago.
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: It'll be the New England Patriots against the Chicago Bears.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: Good Thursday night football game there. Will I take it
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: in fact or fiction? Find out today at 7.35. College
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: football week number eight. Huskies are on bye this week,
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: but Cam Cleland doesn't get the week off. He'll join
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: us today at 9 o'clock. Jed Fish did talk about
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: his quarterback position. It is a bye week, and so
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: he has a little extra time to think about Do
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: I go with the guy that's actually been good at quarterback,
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: or do I go with the guy that I've been paying,
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: who I think could be great? And DeMond Williams, he
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: said yesterday in his comments that I at least have
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: to put Elijah Brown into the conversation. I at least
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: have to acknowledge that he's earned strong consideration to be
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: our starting quarterback. So big decision coming for him. and
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: we'll see where they go. We'll see what Cam has
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: to say about that at 9 o'clock. Kraken win over
• 19:18
  Speaker 6: Detroit last night, 4-3 in a shootout. We'll chat with
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: Al Koniski today at 9.30. Wild game because it looked
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: like the Kraken had it in the bag.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: They were up 3-0.
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: And Detroit goes and scores three unanswered goals in the
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: third period, and it forces an overtime where no one scored,
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: and then a shootout where you ended up tied and
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: you went to extra shots, and then Bobby McMahon scores
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: his goal, and then Philip Grubauer stone-cold blocks Dylan Larkin
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: for the victory. So the crack and get their two
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: points last night. They win another shootout, Chuck. How about that?
• 19:53
  Speaker 6: How about that? Yeah, I think there was.
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: Some disappointing parts about the third period in overtime, but
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: you end up getting the two points.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: It's all that matters.
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: So 4-3, the final score there, the Kraken taking out
• 20:05
  Speaker 6: Detroit in the shootout.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: By the way, would Dylan Larkin interest you? Absolutely, yes.
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: He's expanded his wish list. He didn't include Seattle, but
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: he did expand.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: His wish list.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: Do we know what teams are on his list or not?
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: Or at least they were reporting that yesterday. I need
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: to find that. But absolutely, yes, because he has Michigan
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: ties to Matty Beneers. He would be kind of that
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: guy that can come on the top line and elevate
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: everyone else, which I think is the player that the
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: Kraken needs.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: So absolutely, yes.
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: NBA season tipped last night, unbeknownst to them, to the
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: delight of some cocoa-swilling radio producer. Detroit, Philadelphia, and OKC
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: all won last night. So the Sixers and LeBron ruined
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: Jalen Brunson and Marissa Hargitay's party last night by beating them.
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: Detroit overcame a 22-point deficit. What stood out to you
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: last night about the first day?
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Detroit, they got some shooters.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: They got some guys.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: They needed them.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: They didn't come off starting the game hot, but when
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: they needed to, they picked it up defensively. Cade Cunningham
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: was able to do his thing, and then you got
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: guys that come off the bench that were making big-time threes.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: So this is going to be a fun season for
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: the Detroit Pistons.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: How about that? How about Detroit's the one that stood
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: out to Cade?
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of all those teams. Well, that was the first game.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: But LeBron and those guys, they did their thing, had
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: a little slow start, but got comfortable, and gosh, Maxie is.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: He's a beast. He's a blur.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Good luck. Yeah, they're going to be really good. Oh,
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: and you know what?
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: I would like to apologize. Paul George, I didn't know
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: you had it in you.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: My boy dropped 38, looked just fine. So if you
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: can do that in 70 games, I think they'll be
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: just fine.
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: OKC1, Wimby did not have a good first game. WNBA Finals,
• 21:49
  Speaker 6: that's tonight, game number two. Golden State at Atlanta. They're
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: going to tip at 5 o'clock. The series is even
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: at one game apiece. The World Series won't start until Friday.
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: Tampa Bay at Milwaukee. And the New York Yankees yesterday
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: announced they are retaining Aaron Boone as their manager.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: So that still leaves Brett. Brett's still available.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: All right. Coming up next on our radio program, the
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: NFL trade deadline is in less than three weeks. It
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: seems that the Seahawks have a big hole. Will they
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: address it at the deadline? We'll discuss next. Sports Radio
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: 93.3 KJRFM.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: Now back to Check in the Morning on your home
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: for the Kraken, Huskies, and the 12th Man. Brought to
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: you by Tulalip Resort Casino. More of everything on Sports
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: Hey, great Wednesday morning to you. It is good to
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: have you with us.
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: It is Chuck in the Morning, Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: We have a brand new feature on Wednesdays.
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: It is called Mirror Mirror, and that's where I vow
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: to be the fairest of them all. And so we
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: have basically Ken Walker week here on Seattle Radio as
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: we get ready to face Ken Walker. He's on the
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: other side of the lines for the first time in
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: Seahawks history. And so we've been having a conversation all
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: week long about him, various conversations about Ken Walker being
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: a Kansas City chief and having.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: The year of his career to this point in the season.
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: But there's no putting that cat back in the bag.
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: So I would ask you.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: And I will for Mirror Mirror, what now?
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: What do you do if the running back situation, you're
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: not going to be able to get Ken Walker back?
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: Those birds have flown. So what now? What would you do?
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: And maybe the answer is just be patient. Let's see
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: the plan that John and Mike put together. We still
• 23:52
  Speaker 6: haven't seen it. Maybe that's your recommendation for Mirror Mirror.
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: But if you want to use the talkback, if you
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: want to use the text line at 49451, if you
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: want to use the YouTube channel that we're on right now,
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: your recommendation, Your suggestions for what the Seahawks should do
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: to fix their running back room since there's no chance
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: to get Ken Walker back. I don't think that they're
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: going to meet John and Andy Reid on the sidelines
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: and say, hey, any gives backs?
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: Anything I can do to.
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: Take Rashid Shahid and have to pay him a little
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: bit more money for Ken Walker.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: What do you think, Andy Reid?
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: He was ours. He was ours.
• 24:34
  Speaker 6: So anyway, I think you kind of stole him and
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: we want him back.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Like he's a weed whacker.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: A weed walker, if you will.
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: Hey, hey, and, and, you know, and a panda. You
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: still got my weed walker? You got that in the
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: garage anywhere? I mean, you borrowed that a long time ago.
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: Kind of like to get that back.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you've used it quite a bit.
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: The weeds are growing. The weeds are growing around the facility.
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: And so, yeah, if I could get that back, if
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: you could be a bud, that would be nice. So
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: that's not going to happen. So in lieu of Andy
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: Reid just saying, Ken, go back to your friends. What
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: should the Seahawks do to fix their running back room,
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: their running game? We wait for your suggestions, and I
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: vow at 8 o'clock to be the fairest of them
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: all in response to it.
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: That said, there are a couple of things that.
• 25:29
  Speaker 6: Can be done, and this NFL trade rumor mill is
• 25:32
  Speaker 6: really starting to heat up. We are less than three
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: weeks away from the NFL trading deadline, and... The running
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: back position seems to be the most obvious and glaring
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: need for this team. And yet, as I mentioned, Anders,
• 25:47
  Speaker 6: we still have not seen John Schneider, Mike McDonald's vision
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: for this group. We've not seen it. Shedardian Price has
• 25:55
  Speaker 6: hardly played. Zach Charbonnet obviously hasn't played at all. And
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: so maybe you do give it time. But everyone else
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: that writes about the National Football League think the Seahawks
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: have to address this. John has saved money for the
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: very strict purpose of being able to make one of
• 26:12
  Speaker 6: his classic trade deadline moves that no one else makes
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: as well as he does. And maybe there is another
• 26:20
  Speaker 6: need on this team that could be filled at the
• 26:22
  Speaker 6: trading deadline, but almost everybody is trying to get them
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: a running back.
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the obvious one is running back. But
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: like you said, we haven't really seen what the actual
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: solution to Ken Walker leaving was, right? We've seen a
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: game and a half, really, of Judari and Bryce and
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: zero games of Zach Charbonnet and zero games total for
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: them together, which I think was the original plan. Now,
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: I realize that you have to kind of account for
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: that health as well. So having decent depth at that
• 26:54
  Speaker 5: position is important. And you could definitely argue that they
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: do not have decent depth at that position. But there
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: are going to be options there. It's just whether you
• 27:05
  Speaker 5: want to kind of eat your own words in saying that, Hey,
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: we can pay Jonathan Taylor 20 million, but we wouldn't
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: pay Ken Walker this much money, or we could pay
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: Saquon Barkley this 13, $ 17 million in his age 30
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: and 31 season, but we wouldn't pay Ken Walker, whatever
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: it was at age 25. But yeah, there's going to
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: have to be some sort of come-to-Jesus moment for John
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: Schneider to kind of be like, all right, I need
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: to kind of amend my thought process here with paying
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: running backs at that position.
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: Well, I mean, if you brought it up, then I'm
• 27:39
  Speaker 6: going to go ahead and start at that spot then
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: because I have three options in front of me here.
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: And number one is John's not one for copping to
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: a mistake without seeing it through. I mean, think about
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: how long he stayed with Jamal Adams, and I'm convinced
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: to this day he did not even want to make
• 27:54
  Speaker 6: the Jamal Adams trade. But he stuck with it to see,
• 27:57
  Speaker 6: can we get out of him what we can get?
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: And then that got to the point where he has
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: absolutely no trade value. We don't have a choice. We've
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: got to try to get something out of this guy.
• 28:05
  Speaker 6: But when given plenty of opportunities to throw Pete under
• 28:08
  Speaker 6: the bus, it was Pete's trade, right? He forced you
• 28:10
  Speaker 6: into that. He strong-armed you into that. John Schneider has
• 28:13
  Speaker 6: never admitted to that. And he has never, ever suggested
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: that was a mistake. Even to this day, he still
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: clings to, oh, no, that was a good move. That
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: was a good move. So he's not one for copying
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: to his mistakes. So I don't know if he will
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: decide to make a move. He might just ride it
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: out with the current group. But everybody else in the
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: world that's writing about football thinks they should go after
• 28:39
  Speaker 6: a couple of big names.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Number one is Saquon Barkley. And this is very interesting.
• 28:43
  Speaker 6: This was at NFLTradeRumors.com yesterday, because I've never heard it
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: kind of put this way. Any team trading for Barkley
• 28:53
  Speaker 6: would inherit the remainder of his $ 1. 3 million guaranteed base
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: salary and only $ 2. 5 million of guarantees in 2027, an
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: incredibly affordable sum that will amplify his trade value. Now,
• 29:10
  Speaker 6: Barkley signed a two-year, $ 35 million contract. He has two
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: years left on his contract, $ 35 million, but it was
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: cap-friendly structure because that's how the Eagles do business, and
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: it deals with a ton of flexibility for any new team.
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: So what would happen is that Philadelphia would still take
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: all of his money, so you wouldn't be adding, according
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: to this. okay now if this is accurate i don't
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: i can't tell you yeah i'm just reading it nfl
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: trade rumor is pretty good website yeah of course so
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: they're saying because of the way that the deal is
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: structured that the seahawks would not be eating that money
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: that they did not want to pay for a running
• 29:49
  Speaker 6: back um that the eagles would eat that in exchange
• 29:53
  Speaker 6: for a better pick if in fact the day came
• 29:56
  Speaker 6: that they wanted to trade Saquon Barkley. And even with that,
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: the way Barkley's playing right now, which is not great,
• 30:04
  Speaker 6: and the fact that he's coming off an injury, and
• 30:06
  Speaker 6: the fact that he's getting ready to turn 30, which
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: is apparently ancient for a running back, unless your name
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: is Derrick Henry, they're still suggesting, even with that affordable contract,
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: that you could get him for a second-round draft pick
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: right now. Or two threes, which they believe is the
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: better suggestion, because apparently.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: According to this.
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: Story, everybody wants 2028 picks, not 2027 picks. So if
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: you could get one pick from 2028, and this suggestion
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: being that that's just going to be a better draft,
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: or maybe you give a second round pick in 2028.
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: and you could possibly pull off that deal. So that
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: suddenly changes the equation. If this is accurate, I mean,
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: I can't figure out NFL math for the life of me.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: No one can.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: You couldn't teach that to people from Mensa. They couldn't
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: figure it out.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: It's true.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: So I don't know how NFL math works. It's a
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: lot of hocus pocus.
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: But according to this, if you don't want to spend
• 31:10
  Speaker 6: a lot of money on the running back position, if
• 31:12
  Speaker 6: you added Saquon Barkley, you wouldn't have to. You would
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: just have to give up a draft pick in the future.
• 31:20
  Speaker 6: The other suggestion that was made yesterday, the Indianapolis Colts
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: and Jonathan Taylor. They fired their general manager, Chris Ballard.
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: It sounds like whoever they replace Ballard with is going
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: to be given the keys to a rebuild.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: And that means everything changes.
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: Could go not must go but could go uh daniel
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: jones if somebody would take him deforest buckner seems like
• 31:45
  Speaker 6: a logical quentin nelson has been brought up they're all
• 31:48
  Speaker 6: everything uh offensive linemen which wouldn't surprise me if john
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: would be interested in that of all the things even
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: more so than jonathan taylor something about that totally but
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: jonathan taylor is the other name now jonathan taylor does
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: bring with him a two-year 44 million dollar contract and
• 32:05
  Speaker 6: that's not what They didn't structure it the way that
• 32:09
  Speaker 6: the Eagles did. Now, if that were to take place, yes,
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: you're taking on a big salary, but it's only for
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: two years. For some reason, Taylor and the Colts agree
• 32:20
  Speaker 6: to just a two-year deal. So that makes it somewhat palatable.
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: And the suggestion being made by this writer is Jadarian
• 32:28
  Speaker 6: Price for Jonathan Taylor straight up. So the Colts get
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: the Seahawks' latest first-round pick. And obviously, he makes a
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: lot less money.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: Wow. And the Seahawks get a proven... I mean, even more.
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: So than Saquon, because he's actively playing good football right
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: now and is healthy. They get a proven running back
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: for the next couple of years that could lessen the
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: blow of watching Ken Walker be on pace for 2,200
• 32:55
  Speaker 6: rushing yards in a red uniform this season.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:58
  Speaker 5: There's a lot to take in there. I don't know
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: how I feel about the one-for-one trade.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 33:04
  Speaker 5: While because i still believe that there is something there
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: with your darian price there we we just have like
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: we haven't had a chance to really be able to
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: evaluate it yet and i kind of have.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: To believe if you're john like i was wrong on
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: this yeah yeah you.
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: Would have to have seen his skinny legs at practice
• 33:22
  Speaker 6: up close and personal like hugh millen saw and then
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: said is this guy going to be durable and now
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: that he's already been on the ir you might.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: Have If you've reached the conclusion like, if I can
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: convince somebody else. Yeah.
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: But if John still believes in Jadarian Price, he's not
• 33:40
  Speaker 6: going to trade Jadarian Price.
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: No.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: He's not one for copying to his mistakes.
• 33:43
  Speaker 6: No.
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: He just isn't.
• 33:44
  Speaker 6: No.
• 33:44
  Speaker 5: So I like the kind of thought process behind the
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: Saquon Barkley thing, especially if you would just have to
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: give one, maybe two picks up because of the cap-friendly situation.
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: You could bring him in. He wouldn't have to be
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: the bell cow here because you have Charbonnet and Price already.
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: You could get kind of just sprinkle him in here
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: and there and get the best out of him and
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: avoid kind of getting more injury added on to that.
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: So that's kind of the idea that I like between
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: those two. But, you know, there are options out there
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: to upgrade the running back position.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: Maybe we bring this up to Greg Bell at 705.
• 34:18
  Speaker 6: Certainly going to talk about it in Mirror Mirror. So
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: if that gives you fodder for what you would do
• 34:23
  Speaker 6: to change the running back room now that there's no
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: getting canine back. Give us your suggestions at eight o'clock.
• 34:30
  Speaker 6: The fairest of them all will address the entire ordeal
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: of improving the running game for the Seahawks the rest
• 34:37
  Speaker 6: of the season. Coming up next, though, crack and win
• 34:40
  Speaker 6: last night. Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: Once again, Dylan Larkin. The game resting on his stick.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: Grubauer comes out of his crease. Mark it with speed.
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: Left circle. Now to the middle of the slot. He shoots.
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: Big save by Philip Grubauer. And the Seattle Packers take
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: the extra point for three in a shootout.
• 35:05
  Speaker 6: I love that Everett goes deep on his big calls.
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: High. Like Gus John. Everybody goes high. He goes, big save.
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: That's the great Everett Fitzhugh on the call last night
• 35:19
  Speaker 6: of a Kraken victory. They nearly blew it. They were
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: up 3-0 and then gave three goals to the Red
• 35:25
  Speaker 6: Wings to tie it, send it into overtime.
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: Of course, that's tense. Nobody scored in overtime.
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: They went to a shootout, and suddenly the Kraken can
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: win in a shootout. I credit Bobby McMahon, frankly. 4-3
• 35:38
  Speaker 6: is the final score last night, so two points. More
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: on that in a moment. And, of course, you heard
• 35:43
  Speaker 6: that action right here on sports radio 93.3 kjrfm i
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: do want to let you know they next play on

  Speaker 6: weeks ago and be surprised at how many people have.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: Stayed up all night long. Working the slots. Exactly.
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: That was shocking. That was a little shocking. It's like, whoa.
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: What happens at Tulalip stays at Tulalip, I believe. But yes,
• 36:34
  Speaker 6: a new tradition could be yours. You could birth it tomorrow.

• 36:41
  Speaker 6: the DraftKings Sportsbook. Only go there if you want more
• 36:44
  Speaker 6: of everything. All right, so Kraken do get the win.
• 36:47
  Speaker 6: We are seeing a different version. It continued again last night.
• 36:51
  Speaker 6: What stood out to you most about that victory?
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's another.
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: Like, the first two periods, fantastic work from the Kraken.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: They.
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: really kind of imposed their will on a, on a
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: Detroit team that had actually been playing a lot better
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: hockey leading up to this game.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: We, we, the first time we faced them, they were
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: definitely reeling a lot of drama. And you mentioned the
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: thing with Dylan Larkin as well. But then the last,
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: like I think four or five games, Detroit has picked
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: up points and, So Seattle kind of came into this
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: game with a much better team on the other side
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: of the red line and they imposed their will. But
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: then unfortunately, they got a little too prevent defensey in
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: the third period where you're just kind of trying to
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: hold the lead because you had a 3-0 lead. And
• 37:33
  Speaker 5: Detroit has a lot of talented players on offense. They
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: flexed that muscle. It got it to overtime. And even
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: there was some questionable parts of overtime as well, keeping
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: the puck and everything. But you end up getting the
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: two points there. The fourth line is continuously doing well.
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: It's good to have Brandon Montour back. I'll tell you
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: that right now. He makes a big difference.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt about it.
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: I mean, you're just seeing, you know, I mean, even
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: before overtime, three more goals again. Even in the loss
• 37:59
  Speaker 6: against Florida, scored three goals. I mean, they're scoring at
• 38:02
  Speaker 6: least three goals a night. And that is just different
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: from the inconsistent offense that we've seen. They were successful
• 38:08
  Speaker 6: on the power play last night, got two of their
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: three goals off the power play.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: So it does look like a different team.
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: They've got a lot more proving to do, but they
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: do look much better than what they did a year ago.
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: And they'll take on the Mammoth, the Wooly Mammoth, tomorrow
• 38:26
  Speaker 6: at 7 o'clock. They're pretty good, right?
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're a really good team.
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: They're one of those teams that has been kind of
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: in the middle, playoff-ish contender where the Kraken are now.
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: And they've made that jump into Stanley Cup contender.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 38:39
  Speaker 6: I mean, I realize Kraken haven't won as much as
• 38:42
  Speaker 6: we'd like for them to, but I don't know if
• 38:44
  Speaker 6: those two organizations just did everything the right way.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: Just everything the right way. It's true. And I love
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: the Mammoth. I like the merch. I like all of that. And,
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: of course, the Kraken have excellent stuff as well. All right,
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: coming up next, we've got your headlines for you. Greg
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: Bell will join us. We'll find out more about Zach Charbonnet,
