  Speaker 5: Yeah, everybody gets their own bus.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Man the Convoy of Champions.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: Normally normally four buses for for a normal game.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: So they got every staff member probably in there. It's
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: like a player. Here comes the Zabel bus here.
• 3:19
  Speaker 6: Well they also have family members.

  Speaker 3: Guys, You guys have a good time, See you later.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: One of those buses I noticed had some beverages stacked
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: up in the front of it. One of them, well
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: one that I saw did, Yes, probably just water.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: I think it's just stay hydrated.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: What was the question? Oh what was it like?
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we always don't.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: We always joke about having a parade, and I thought
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: I thought we were gonna have one back in October.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: I think you guys probably did two at a couple of
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: points when on that Friday night, I thought we were
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: gonna happen.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: I thought there was a chance. I'm saying there was
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: a chance.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, But and you know what, who's to say there's
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: not gonna be one later on this year in October
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: as well.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: But this is what it's all about.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: This is fun. It's it's different for me.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: I got to watch it as a fan this year,
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: more so than the last time when it was just
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: a I was with Greg and I'm on a field
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: in New York and confetti and We're running around doing
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: stuff and then hoping I could get home from a blizzard.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: So this was a little bit personally, a little bit
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: more enjoyable and fun less business. And this is kind
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: of culmination of this one. It's all about Greg.
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: What do you love?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: What is it about this event that you like?
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Because you're a professional journalist and I would imagine you
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: don't like just covering stories with drunken football players for
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: six straight hours. And yet you're also somebody that loves
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: those little things about professional sports, professional sports athletes and
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: being able to celebrate with family and friends and everything else.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: So how how do you wrap your beat writer brain
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: around this event?
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: This is for the city.
• 4:59
  Speaker 7: This for all the people that spend thousands of dollars
• 5:02
  Speaker 7: a year on season tickets, that are on the wait list,
• 5:05
  Speaker 7: that are pressing their faces against glass to see their
• 5:08
  Speaker 7: heroes that grew up in the Kingdome and sitting in
• 5:11
  Speaker 7: meadow bleachers for seven and nine and eight and eight seasons.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: That's what today is for.
• 5:16
  Speaker 7: And what's cool about this team I cover is even
• 5:20
  Speaker 7: the young guys Nicky Manworris of the team, they get that,
• 5:24
  Speaker 7: they get that the fans here are different and the
• 5:27
  Speaker 7: fervor is different. And then there have been here people
• 5:30
  Speaker 7: here for fifty years of the franchise's history. The day
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: ones who will be down here tonight among the million today,
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: among the million.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: People, they get the players get.
• 5:40
  Speaker 7: That sense of a civic trust that this franchise is,
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: and they also really get the impact that these fans
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: have on games, a tangible impact on GAG. Mike McDonald
• 5:52
  Speaker 7: talked yesterday about the fact that the Patriots went silent
• 5:57
  Speaker 7: count in a super Bowl. The Super Bowl is about
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: as corporate of a football game environment as there is,
• 6:03
  Speaker 7: because all most of the tickets are handouts to people
• 6:05
  Speaker 7: who can care less about the game, bitch, big rich
• 6:10
  Speaker 7: big wigs who don't really have a stake in it.
• 6:13
  Speaker 7: Seahawks fans bought up a lot of those tickets on
• 6:15
  Speaker 7: the second market, secondhand market, and that place was seventy
• 6:19
  Speaker 7: five percent Seahawks. It was my fifth Super Bowl I've
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: ever covered, and I've never heard it that loud in
• 6:24
  Speaker 7: a Super Bowl, and that.
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: Stadium is not known to be very loud.
• 6:27
  Speaker 7: It's not there's no ruse or even covers around the
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: stadium at Levi Stadium. The Patriots went silent count in
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: a Super Bowl. That is a tangible effect on the
• 6:37
  Speaker 7: outcome of the game. The defense can get make their
• 6:40
  Speaker 7: calls and do their switches at the Patriots risk of
• 6:43
  Speaker 7: trying to communicate counters before the snap and Sam Darnold
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: was able to call his cadences like he was in
• 6:50
  Speaker 7: a practice in June at the the vMac. It was
• 6:53
  Speaker 7: quiet when the Seahawks had the ball. The players talked
• 6:57
  Speaker 7: about that after the game. They were saying, Gee, can.
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: You believe how loud it was in there? I say, yeah,
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: I've never been.
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: In a Super Bowl that was that loud.
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 7:06
  Speaker 7: Today is for those people that spent fifteen thousand dollars
• 7:11
  Speaker 7: to go down to Saint Maclair in San Francisco last week,
• 7:14
  Speaker 7: that have been watching on television, if they can't afford
• 7:17
  Speaker 7: to go to games, that are priced out of coming
• 7:19
  Speaker 7: into Loomenfield for regular season NFL games, but can come
• 7:23
  Speaker 7: to this for free. That's why they parents, get your
• 7:26
  Speaker 7: school kids out that this is stuff that is for
• 7:29
  Speaker 7: you as much as it is for the team.
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: It's even more for the people.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: You guys talked about it in. I don't know what
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: hour I was driving in. It's been a few hours
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: since I was driving in.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: But when you had to be or when you pretty good,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Bucky as a lifetime You're welcome.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: God, you are the man. No, you guys talked about
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: it earlier. The three of you talked about it earlier.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: You know, there's an assumption sometimes when you win that well,
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: we'll just be back next week, right, And listen, I
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: think we if we look at the two teams side
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: by side, New England's very different, older, with a lot
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: of high priced, you know, free agents last couple of years.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: Seattle's in a different boat in a lot of ways.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: But we all kind of feel like, hey, this maybe
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: even the start of something for Seattle. They said the
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: exact same thing in twenty fourteen, in February twenty fourteen
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: in the locker room in New Jersey, every guy I
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: talked to you said the same thing, and you know what,
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: they were back in the next year, but there was
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: no parade. This could be a once in a lifetime
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: opportunity for the players and for a lot.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Of these fans as well. I mean, it took us.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: I'm doing the math.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: This is year fifty second parade in year fifty first
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: parade was in year thirty eight, right, is that right?
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: In the franchise?
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: Right, these don't happen all that often, So enjoy it,
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: absorb it, take it all in.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: I think what Greg SAIDs right.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: Ninety nine percent of these people didn't go to the
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: super Bowl in person, and probably about eighty percent didn't
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: even go to a game this year in person. But
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: they get a look and see if they're players, up
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: close and personal as they drive by and they fly by.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: We've seen how this town and break his athletes. How
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: we talked about you guys give me a hard time
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: of the crack and cal Rowley's had been about I
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: don't know, ten twelve games this year. Every time they
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: put him on the big screen as he pounds a beer,
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: real guy, real dude. As he does that, you hear
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: the chance of envy, and people just go bananas.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: We love our heroes in this town.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: They get to celebrate them, look at them up close
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: and personal, something they don't normally get to do.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Really cool day all the way around, you know, And
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: I moved here.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: The twelve of them had just it was at its
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: most frenzy point here. I got here run a week
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: after they didn't give Marshawn the ball. Okay, that's when
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I got here, all right, And so the twelve of them, I.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Mean, it was it was at a fever pitch at
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: that point.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: And there was the argument, the conversation about like old
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: school Seahawk fans versus the new school Tall never tired
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: that one. Yeah, and all of that stuff was going on,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: and those conversations were being held. But I'll tell you
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: this year, like getting that home field advantage, Ian.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Greg like that. I mean, it didn't make a difference
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: in the forty nine Ers game or in the Patriots game.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Those looked like they were going to be blowouts either way.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: But I rarely would ever even consider giving the twelves
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: credit for willing a team to victory. But I don't
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: think there was any coincidence that it's the first thing
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald mentioned on the podium and the NFC Conference
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Championship game. It really there, really is this community of
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: we make a difference here in Seattle, and by God,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: we're going to celebrate it.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: I think.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: I think Greg, we saw Lumtfield come back at the
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Rams Thursday night game for the first time in years.
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: I'm sure you and I had this discussion in Arizona
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: after Pete Carroll's last game as well went out that
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: night and in a shocking development.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: But Luminfield had lost its luster.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: The Seahawks fan wasn't dominant in its own building anymore.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: That home field advantage had disappeared.
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: And I remember we all kind of you and I
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: and a couple of guys, we were talking about how
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: dysfunctional it seemed to be.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: This are smoking, oh his first kid.
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: No, it wasn't like all the dysfunction going on, and
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: whether it be fans selling tickets or the team kind
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: of lost, but mostly that Luman field luster had disappeared,
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: had just disappeared, and it's taken a while to get
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: it back. But it is back now, but it took
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: a while to get to that point. It's great to
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: see it back because we saw it during the baseball playoffs.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Oh for sure. We saw it three years.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: Ago when the Kraken were in the playoffs, and we
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: saw this year in the Seahawks in the playoffs.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: For horse fans here are pretty damn good.
• 11:32
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna say it again. The only four times the
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: Seahawks have ever made the Super Bowl is when they
• 11:36
  Speaker 7: had home field advantage for the playoffs. And we talked
• 11:39
  Speaker 7: about it way back when we talked about last year
• 11:42
  Speaker 7: guys on your show. They ain't getting anywhere until they
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: win the division. Why because you have to win the
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: division to get home playoff games in the NFL when
• 11:52
  Speaker 7: they got in position to get the number one seed,
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: that changed everything. Because you have one fewer playoff game
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: and you're both games are at home, your path statistically,
• 12:01
  Speaker 7: your path is so much better. That's why the Thursday
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: night Rams game changed everything.
• 12:07
  Speaker 6: And I could argue that Rashid Shaheed changed everything.
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: They're down nine minutes left there, down sixteen points when
• 12:14
  Speaker 7: Rashid Shaheed fielded that punt and ran it back forty
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: fifty eight yards for a touchdown.
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: Without that punt return, I don't know.
• 12:21
  Speaker 7: If Sam Darnold makes two eight point drives to tie
• 12:25
  Speaker 7: the game in Fams overtime, he only had to make
• 12:27
  Speaker 7: one because of Shiheed.
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: If they don't win that game.
• 12:30
  Speaker 7: Guys, they're in Tampa Bay or Carolina in the wild
• 12:33
  Speaker 7: card round of the playoffs after being on the road
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: two weeks to end the regular season. Even if they
• 12:38
  Speaker 7: make a run in the playoffs, they would have had
• 12:41
  Speaker 7: to win five consecutive road games counting the end of
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: the regular season.
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: There would not have been an NFC West title game
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: for San Francisco.
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: That would have been a playoff seeding to try to
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: stay out of the seventh seed for if they lost
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: the Rams game, I'm not sure that they would have
• 12:57
  Speaker 7: won five consecutive road games, including at the Rams and
• 13:00
  Speaker 7: the NFC title to get to the Super Bowl without
• 13:03
  Speaker 7: beating the Rams and that comeback, the inexplicable two point
• 13:06
  Speaker 7: played by Sharbonne and.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: All of it.
• 13:09
  Speaker 7: All of that is to say that the fans had
• 13:11
  Speaker 7: a hand in that Rams game too.
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 13:13
  Speaker 7: Ye, professional college, high school, youth league sports has momentum.
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: Bucky knows. This momentum is real.
• 13:21
  Speaker 7: You feel it in the stadium, you feel it on
• 13:23
  Speaker 7: the sidelines, the players feel it inside them. The other
• 13:26
  Speaker 7: team tenses up. Maybe Stafford holds onto the ball a
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: little bit longer and ends up darting a pass he
• 13:32
  Speaker 7: should earlier in the game would have easily thrown out
• 13:36
  Speaker 7: of his hand. And that's the difference with game fourth
• 13:38
  Speaker 7: and five and a first down. It's momentum that this
• 13:42
  Speaker 7: stadium builds. And again, that's what today is for. People
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: don't It's hard to wrap your hands around intangibles, which
• 13:50
  Speaker 7: is why people don't like that. They love the analytics
• 13:52
  Speaker 7: and the stupid dvoas and all that stuff. Nah, Seattle's
• 13:57
  Speaker 7: about this and about the intangibles of the people and
• 14:00
  Speaker 7: the people in the building and the people in the stadium,
• 14:04
  Speaker 7: the people at a million people that are coming down to.
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: That's what Seattle sports is about.
• 14:09
  Speaker 7: It's not about the the they intent and Mike McDonald
• 14:12
  Speaker 7: those guys have absolutely embraced that. It's it does make
• 14:16
  Speaker 7: this team unique, that regard for the fans, for the intangibles,
• 14:20
  Speaker 7: for the.
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: Home field and all of it. Today's a celebration for that.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: Was that the moment for you?
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: That was it that obvious that we were because I mean,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: we have you on every day and it was until
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: they prove they can beat the rams on the forty
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: nine ers, right, But that Thursday nights when the first
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: time you were like, this team might win it all.
• 14:37
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Because that night is when I said they're not
• 14:38
  Speaker 7: not only gonna win the division, they have a chance
• 14:40
  Speaker 7: to get the number one a strong chance to get
• 14:42
  Speaker 7: the number one seed.
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: If they went out, they're gonna be the number one seed.
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: And that's exactly what happened.
• 14:46
  Speaker 7: They won out and then the dominant performance weekend team
• 14:49
  Speaker 7: in San Francisco showed that they can win with just
• 14:51
  Speaker 7: their defense. They can win with a quarterback who didn't
• 14:54
  Speaker 7: practice before that game. In the Divisional round forty one
• 14:57
  Speaker 7: to six for the quarterback who didn't throw from third
• 15:00
  Speaker 7: day to Saturday because of their defense, thirteen to three
• 15:02
  Speaker 7: in Week eighteen at San Francisco because of their defense
• 15:05
  Speaker 7: when they just played rop a dope on offense and
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: controlled the game with their defense.
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: And we also said this, if they don't turn the
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: ball over, they were gonna win the Super Bowl.
• 15:14
  Speaker 7: All of those things conspired at the exact point, a
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: running game finally getting going in December and the crux
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: of the season.
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: But yeah, it's enjoy this, Seattle.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: It's not.
• 15:23
  Speaker 7: And they feel like they're young and they have salary
• 15:26
  Speaker 7: caps face and they have a twenty eight year quarterback.
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: It ain't that easy, right, And this is gonna be
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: hard to duplicate.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Was that same for you that Thursday night?
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Because I'm gonna tell you the first time it crossed
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: my mind was the Commanders And I'm not trying to
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: like one up right when they killed them when they
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: came out of that buy and I'm like, that was
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: like an NFL team as a college team.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: I mean that was such domination. I'm like, wow, is
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: this team championship caliber? I remember going to Bad thinking
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: that lad night.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: It was so different than twenty thirteen in that regard
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: because twenty thirteen they go they have the run at
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: the end of the year. In twenty twelve, they run
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: the table, win the final six, win the first playoff
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: game in Washington.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: RG three game.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: He with one of eight guys that went down at
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: ac Hel in that game, but they won that game,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: should have won in Atlanta.
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: But you felt like they were on the rise. And
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: then twenty thirteen, buying large A ran the table. Same
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: thing though the best your best competition all year was
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: in your own division. You had to win the final
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: week in the regular season. And all that point being
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: is it was still easier that year. This year they're
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: three and two at one point, and you look at
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: the schedule and you can make an argument at three
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: and two with what was coming up on the schedule,
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: including the Commanders coming off an NFC championship appear in
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: the year before, and a game against Houston, they could
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: have been they could have easily been a three and
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: five team at one point. And then everything started to click.
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: Like Greg said, crowd got into it and the defense
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: really kind of took over. Sam Donold found his way,
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: and then I think you know what you guys have
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: all said. You've talked about a lot of the round
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: tables this year, and with Greg at seven and the
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: Rashid Shihat trade, which was panned by a lot of people. Oh,
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: they gave up too much first. Lots of bad draft
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: this year. So your your day three picks aren't what
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: they normally are. No, everyone will tell you it's not that.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: And you got that guy and he changed a couple
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: of games for you, and and it was huge. But uh,
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: and it's and and here we are with a million
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: people down down.
• 17:25
  Speaker 7: Good point about the bad draft. The Seahawks have only
• 17:28
  Speaker 7: four picks, right, but there's a reason for that. And
• 17:31
  Speaker 7: Schnyder and his scouting staff realize this is not the
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: draft to stack up on picks. Let's get guys that
• 17:36
  Speaker 7: can help us win a Super Bowl right now. And
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: Rashid sh Heat as I just mentioned, probably changed.
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: The trajectory of their playoffs seating because of his return
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: for m Man.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: You gotta love the scene down here.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, I love the fact that we got a
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: you know, a loaf of to Tupu Jersey being represented.
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: We go.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: I just saw a nine year old with a Steve
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Largent jersey on.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, we got Wagner and represented, we got the
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: new school players and the old school uniforms. I mean,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: you don't want to talk about a fan base just
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: sinking its teeth into a team, an easy team to
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: to love. My goodness, was this a fun team? Great team,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: great season this year?
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: I think I think very similar to the baseball team,
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: like guys you could like, guys that you could root for,
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: guys that didn't come across is Listen, the LB is
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: one of a kind and there's nothing wrong with how
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: they did things, and proof was in the championship.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: But this team was just different and more likable.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: Had to Seahawks staffer text me during the playoffs during
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: right before the Super Bowl week. Actually they said really cool.
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: I said, Hey, you know, wish you were here. I
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: know you know how you did it for a long
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: time because you'd really like this team, And I did.
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: I was out there a lot of Wednesdays this year,
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: and every guy I talked to you came across. Even
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: worry is one of the best interviews I've had in
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: a long time. You know, guys like that just jump
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: off the page. At you fun, fun team to talk to,
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: fun team to root for, and hopefully a fun team
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: to root for for a few years. Greg mentioned this
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: morning the salary cap space they've.
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: Got coming up.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're in a great situation, a young.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Team with a lot of salary cap coming off as
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: much momentum as you could possibly have with a thirty
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: eight year old right age and an executive who is on.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Fire right now.
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: And here's the thing with him, You go back in
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: the day, when did he struggle as a GM. Well,
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: if you want to call it struggle, it's when they
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: had already built this thing up and they're drafting thirty first,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: twenty eighth, twenty ninth or not until the second or
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: third round, right, And so they took a chance on
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: the Christian Michaels and the leek mcdowalls were why because
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: they kind of felt like they could when it got
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: back to just putting a team together and building a
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: team up. This guy knows what the hell he's doing,
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: as do Nolan and Trent and the rest of the
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: group in there with it also ups to get.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: On the same page.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know if Beat and he were all on
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: the same page. There were some trades in there, Greg,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: where I'm like Jamal Jamal Adams. That's not a John
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Schneider trade wasn't out, But McDonald and he got on
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: the same page halfway through last year.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: And they have been in lockstep every sing well.
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: Snyder outgrew his role.
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: He was hired by Pete Carroll as a first time
• 20:11
  Speaker 7: GM a career scout in twenty ten, but by twenty
• 20:16
  Speaker 7: twenty two he had outgrown that second.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Fiddle role and Carroll was in charge.
• 20:22
  Speaker 7: It was time for Schneider to have his own wings,
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: and Jody Allen and Burke cold recognized that, and that's
• 20:28
  Speaker 7: why they chose Snyder's path over Carroll's and fired Carroll.
• 20:31
  Speaker 7: Had Snyder be the number one football authority, and Mike
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: McDonald wasn't going to come in here and try to
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: have a Pete Carroll authority of football matter, right, He's
• 20:40
  Speaker 7: gonna be subservient to the GM who's been here for
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: sixteen years.
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: So that dynamic change.
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: And you mentioned the draft and John Schneider, as I
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: rememb brought up a couple hours ago, John Schneider admits
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: that he went away from his philosophy of drafting good
• 20:56
  Speaker 7: guys and talking to the janitors and the r and
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: the dorms and the background on these kids and draft
• 21:04
  Speaker 7: prospects of what are they like as people? Right, And
• 21:07
  Speaker 7: they got it right with that with the McDowell's and
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: some of the other picks that they had that failed.
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: And that's the locker room we have now in Seattle
• 21:14
  Speaker 7: is those type of dudes, some really good guys, some.
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: Byron Murphy's Byron Murphy.
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: If you haven't read my stories in the news Tribute,
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: I talked to Byron Murphy like four times a week.
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: He spent his entire season from October to the end.
• 21:28
  Speaker 7: Of December with a baby girl that weighed two pounds
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: in the nick U unit over Lake Hospital in Bellevue.
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: Every damn day when he wasn't doing meetings of practices
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: or weightlifting, he was in that nick You and I
• 21:39
  Speaker 7: can tell you from having twins in the NICKU it
• 21:41
  Speaker 7: scares the Jesus out of you to see two little
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: ones that are yours strapped in an isolette to wires
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: and heart monitors beeping all the time.
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: He had to do that for two months while still
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: playing football. He didn't get his baby back to his.
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: House for the first time her little girling come till
• 21:56
  Speaker 7: right before Christmas. Yeah, and he really appreciates where he
• 22:00
  Speaker 7: is and what he got because here it's like that
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: Byron Murphy had one of the best seasons on the team.
• 22:05
  Speaker 7: They have a bunch of dudes like that. Emon Worry
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: is saying, Man, I don't know if ever we're going
• 22:10
  Speaker 7: to get back here. He's twenty two years old, already
• 22:11
  Speaker 7: recognizing that this is not easy to do. Yeah, it's
• 22:15
  Speaker 7: it's an easy, easy to like team. Of course, when
• 22:17
  Speaker 7: they win, they're really likable. But we saw this coming
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: in April when they had one hundred and May one
• 22:22
  Speaker 7: hundred percent participation in voluntary stuff.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: All right, well, thank you, have fun today. Uh Ian,

  Speaker 5: Oh.

  Speaker 4: Why you're right on the money, because it depends on
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: how many times I go to them, and if we're
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: putting money on it, if we get if we put
• 22:46

• 26:02
  Speaker 1: ready for the parade today, and we'll hand things over
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: to Ian at ten o'clock, but also a bit of
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: a season in review, and the very first conversation that
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: we had this morning was about me going on a
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: couple of radio stations and already the tear down of
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: from other NFL cities a little bit jealous that we're
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: celebrating a championship here in Seattle today, you know, trying
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: to poke holes in the team and what have you.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: And even God asked a question in Vegas about, oh,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: how are you going to overcome losing your OC. I'm
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: not really that worried about it. I mean, good OC,
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: glad he's got a championship ring. Things really seemed to
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: hum with him here. But you know what, there's so
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: many good things here to build around that I'm not
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: gonna sweat losing one individual out of this organization going
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: forward unless it was one guy. There's only one guy
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: that I might start sweating, and that is the head coach,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: I think he is the guy.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: I mean if Yeah, there are a lot of pieces
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: of pie that share in this celebration, but to me,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the largest percentage, that largest wedge, it belongs to Mike McDonald.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: I think that we have just here in Seattle landed a.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Dream head coach to guide this organization for and he's
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: thirty eight years old, next forty years.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: Just keep him around forty Well, he's young enough he
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: could he could do it. He'd be right up there
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: at Pete Carroll's age at that point, right so he
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: could literally be your.
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: Head coach for forty years.
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: I don't know for sure how long it's gonna last,
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: but I'm with you on the idea of it.
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: Wouldn't want anything else.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think anybody right now would want
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: a better or a different GM and head coach combo
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: than what the Seahawks have right now. I'm with you now,
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: one piece isn't going to make this house crumble because
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: there's too many things that it's built upon, the youth
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: of the team. I mean, you got your quarterback locked in.
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: You're gonna have to figure out what you're gonna do
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: running back. And there's a couple of pieces in the
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: back end of your secondary that are free agents. But
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: you have the cap space to fill those with comparable pieces,
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: possibly even up grade some of those things if need be.
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: So I'm with you.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: I think that the idea of Mike McDonald being kind
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: of the centerpiece. I've said a bunch of times throughout
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: the course of the season, you know, the defense is
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: the straw that stirs the drink. But that's when I'm
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: just talking about the players. So when I'm talking about
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: offense or defense, there's obviously special teams has their role
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: in it, but really the straw that stirs the drink,
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, when you're really using that analogy is Mike McDonald.
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't think that he's a.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: Guy that takes his leadership skills and just says, all right, Kubiak,
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: you got the offense.
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: I mean I've read something I think it was yesterday.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: I was reading something where he challenges the offense weekly
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: like he isn't a hands off guy, like that's yours,
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: that's your baby, I'm gonna stay out of it. I
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: think he has his hands on the entire thing, from
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: from top to bottom. How you're gonna sign autographs, how
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: you're gonna stick around. Greg was talking about how he
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: kind of reamed the guys when they didn't do their
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: part of being ambassadors for the for the the organization,
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: and I think that it goes from that all the
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: way up to the highest level obviously of x's and
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: O's and the genius that he is when it comes
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: to defense. I just think that he has he has
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: kind of he has a niche. He has a niche
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: that is the leadership quality that you need in today's.
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: Day and age. And it's not an easy thing to do.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's easy to manage seventy guys on
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: a roster and get all seventy of them to be
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: rowing in the same direction.
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: And that's one of the things he's talked.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: He gives kudos to the practice squad guys because no,
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: you're here. There's a reason you might have to be
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: next man up. But even if you're not next man up,
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: you're helping us get better during practice. And I think
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: everybody buys into that thing.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: He'll even have a strategy because he will drink today,
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: but you know he's got it strategized, like he will
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: have I'll have a water in between, sure, my bud
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: light and my you know, my.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: Body's off of right. Yeah, I'll go ahead and right,
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: you know, maybe the mayor beer.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: And then I'll probably run up a couple of miles,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: sweat it out then and then I'll get back on
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: the parade room, sure, and then and then I'll.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Probably have a scotch.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: He probably has the whole thing like strategized, like what's
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: the perfect combination of buzz and maintaining your buzz that
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: you have to have. He's probably researched it. He's probably
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: called up scientists. He probably knows exactly what to do today. Meanwhile,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, everybody in the city seeing John Schneider, you
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: know it tanked, you know.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, all you gotta do is goes dinos on
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Fridays and you see that.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: But Mike McDonald, for the first time, we're gonna see
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: him kind of let his hair down in public with
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: millions of people watching.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Uh, and we'll see how he handles it today. But uh,
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: same put rules.
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: Apply to you.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Bub I'm a big fan.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Pants need to stay on m Yeah, let's see on
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: Sports Center, not on NBC Nightly News.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Today, cap all right.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: I don't think you're gonna have to worry about him
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: too much. He seems pretty buttoned up for a young guy.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: I think he's gonna have his fun. I think he's
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: going to enjoy this, because I don't know for sure
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: when it would sink in, But I know it doesn't
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: sink in. Right at the moment, you're like, oh my god,
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: we won the Super Bowl. And then the next thing
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: you know, he's on Jimmy Kimmel and now he's back
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: here preparing for a parade, and yet you know that
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: he still is thinking about how do I keep this
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: whole thing in check today? And also he's preparing these
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: guys for next season already, like we're gonna enjoy this thing,
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: drink the whole thing in. But at the same time,
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: we always have steps of moving forward and getting better.
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: And even during a parade, I have a feeling that
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: he has something up a sleeve.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: Oh it's eleven forty five. Time for my pancake, Just.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: Single silver dollar pancake, Bloody Mary, soak up some of
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: that bud light that I drink, Bloody Mary, please.

  Speaker 12: I actually parked at the radio station on Elliott Avenue
• 35:18
  Speaker 12: and took a line bike up here, so I was fine.
• 35:20
  Speaker 8: But for people that are on their way down right now,
• 35:22
  Speaker 8: what should they know? What should they not know? Dus
• 35:24
  Speaker 8: and don't for this whole thing.
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: Just expect a lot of delays.
• 35:27
  Speaker 13: Use public transit if you can park far away, just
• 35:29
  Speaker 13: like you did use a line bike to get down here.
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: Uh, pack your patience.
• 35:32
  Speaker 13: It's gonna be a long day, fun day for everybody,
• 35:34
  Speaker 13: but it's gonna be a long day full of traffics.
• 35:36
  Speaker 8: And I did see that there are porta potties by
• 35:38
  Speaker 8: the way.
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: I'm sure yeah. City Seattle helped everybody out with that one.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 35:42
  Speaker 12: What's what's traffic going to be like getting out here?
• 35:44
  Speaker 12: Their streets cut off? That people need to know about?
• 35:46
  Speaker 12: Nothing that I know off the top of my head.
• 35:48
  Speaker 13: Obviously, Fourth Avenue is gonna be closed until the parade
• 35:51
  Speaker 13: gets all the way north.
• 35:52

  Speaker 2: ahead of you.
• 36:08
  Speaker 8: I haven't eaten anything yet.
• 36:10
  Speaker 12: I figured that was the best idea in case there
• 36:12
  Speaker 12: was nowhere to relieve myself from the parade route.
• 36:14
  Speaker 8: So I've kept the food.
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: What are you gonna do after you've had three vodka krans?

• 37:04
  Speaker 2: we got our time.
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: Done with him.
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: He's somebody else's problem now. Yeah, yeah, that trooper hopefully
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: he keeps an eye on him. Keep your pants on, Softy.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, you've got to deal with him.
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: I just kept shaking my head, thinking that's my life
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: for the next three hours, and that's pretty awesome.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Can't wait. Uh oh, I gotta just wind him up.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: But let him go? How easy gonna be? It's it
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: actually sounds like I can just sit back and go,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Softy go and he'll.
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: Go, ye, yeah, easy.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: You know, he has a string on his back. If
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: you just keep pulling it, he'll just keep going. He's
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: a man of the people. He's a man of the people.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: He's out with the people, which is good. Making friends
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: with the Troopers even better. Smart move on his part.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: Everything he's doing is one hundred percent on on brand.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: And but I like the fact that he's now tied
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: in with the Trooper as well, just in case things
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: get a little out of out of control.
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: He's got police protection down there. I don't know about Jackson.
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: I'm more worried about Jackson right now, adding in front
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: of city Hall. Jackson's had a rough week, got car wreck,
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: you know, just beat up. I mean, I just I
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: hope Jackson survives the day.
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: Ashley.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: I trust one hundred percent. At the end of the
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: parade route, that's a mistake. I'll actually, where are you
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: going to be? Exactly?
• 38:15
  Speaker 14: I'm going to fourth and Seed hear the very end
• 38:16
  Speaker 14: of the route.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: Is there a bar next to that? There's got to
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: be a bar. That's why you're there.
