2:02
Speaker 5: Yes, the MLB Gold Card was yesterday given out to
2:05
Speaker 5: a friend of the show, Adam mccalvey. An awesome moment
2:09
Speaker 5: before the Brewers game, and then the Brewers go out,
2:11
Speaker 5: and even better moment happened when a three run shot
2:14
Speaker 5: by Andrew Vaughn started out the proceedings, and I'll put
2:17
Speaker 5: the kids to bed early. Luckily it was a nap
2:19
Speaker 5: time edition of Brewers and Cardinals, and they split the
2:23
Speaker 5: abbreviated two game series with a bang arman sorry in
2:27
Speaker 5: this offense being new found and recovered for the Milwaukee Brewers.
2:31
Speaker 2: Wow, it's crazy.
2:32
Speaker 5: Your lineup gets better when Jackson, Cherio and Andrew Vaughn
2:35
Speaker 5: are in it.
2:35
Speaker 4: In twenty twenty sex, Isn't it wonderful when you actually
2:37
Speaker 4: get the pieces to the machine back, the machine works better,
2:41
Speaker 4: or the at least it seems that way right away.
2:43
Speaker 4: And it's nice to infuse those guys right in the
2:45
Speaker 4: lap and immediately get the production, because it doesn't always
2:48
Speaker 4: happen like that, right Billy. I mean, guys coming off
2:51
Speaker 4: injury or coming off a long layoff might need a
2:53
Speaker 4: little ten to ramp up, or you know, get the
2:55
Speaker 4: timing back and things like that. Not so for jack
2:58
Speaker 4: jack and Andrew Vaughn, the von Moher as I remember
3:02
Speaker 4: old friend Pipe Pom saying once and once in a while.
3:05
Speaker 2: Right away back to it.
3:06
Speaker 4: Jackson just hitting everything, banging walls all over the place,
3:10
Speaker 4: and and of course won with the first homer. So
3:13
Speaker 4: it was great to see and sorely needed for this
3:15
Speaker 4: Brewers offense as they try and make their way down
3:18
Speaker 4: through the month of May and get a bunch of wins,
3:20
Speaker 4: and yeah, congrats to our our friend Ed mccalvey on
3:23
Speaker 4: the gold card.
3:23
Speaker 2: I didn't know. I was yesterday years old, billy.
3:26
Speaker 4: When I knew that you could get that for for
3:28
Speaker 4: twenty five years of service. I knew about the the
3:31
Speaker 4: pass for players with eight years of service.
3:33
Speaker 2: Klieve there's a ten whatever it is.
3:35
Speaker 4: Yeah, I knew about that. I knew, I knew those
3:37
Speaker 4: guys could get it, but I didn't know employees could too. So, hey,
3:39
Speaker 4: that's pretty cool. How about that? What a deal? I mean,
3:42
Speaker 4: that's like the dream of Arma deals, right, lifetime pass
3:45
Speaker 4: right there.
3:45
Speaker 2: That that's like you can't be God and you go forever.
3:49
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it is one of my favorite UH sports
3:53
Speaker 5: moments when the gold card gets mentioned and then the
3:56
Speaker 5: guy that has the gold card is like, I earned
3:59
Speaker 5: it by an Adam's case, watching every single game of
4:02
Speaker 5: a baseball season in person for over a quarter century.
4:06
Speaker 5: It is ironic, right, Probably the last thing you want
4:09
Speaker 5: to do when then not working is then go sit
4:12
Speaker 5: in the stands go.
4:12
Speaker 2: To a baseball game.
4:13
Speaker 5: However, major League Baseball's like, hey you can, just so
4:16
Speaker 5: you know, you played fourteen years in the big leagues.
4:19
Speaker 2: Whenever you want, it's on us. We'll let you in.
4:21
Speaker 5: Come on in, We'll get you some tickets to the game.
4:24
Speaker 5: One of the great moments and seeing Murph get dap
4:28
Speaker 5: him up, get that on Brewers TV. He was an
4:30
Speaker 5: awesome one yesterday and like being able to celebrate Adam mccalvey.
4:34
Speaker 2: He is the goods.
4:35
Speaker 5: He is a wisconsinight through and through all the way
4:39
Speaker 5: through over at New Berlin High School, dominating Brewers dot
4:43
Speaker 5: Com and then also being like one of the first
4:46
Speaker 5: in that space and one of the longest running guys.
4:50
Speaker 5: He was like one of the first when Major League
4:52
Speaker 5: Baseball took over MLB dot com and had everybody in
4:56
Speaker 5: house reporting on teams. And he's still sitting here and
4:59
Speaker 5: he doesn't look a thirty. That's one of the craziest
5:02
Speaker 5: parts of it. That he grew into the position and
5:04
Speaker 5: still does tremendous stuff.
5:05
Speaker 2: That's a great point.
5:06
Speaker 4: I mean, he is one of the originals in that space,
5:08
Speaker 4: and he's been a mainstam on the beat and a
5:11
Speaker 4: guy that we've really content, who was content we really
5:14
Speaker 4: appreciated over the years. And I think you're right, Billy.
5:16
Speaker 4: The shocking thing is that he's been doing it for
5:18
Speaker 4: twenty five years. Because he looks like a young guy.
5:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, he has a guy impressive you know what.
5:23
Speaker 4: I gotta say, that's not an easy line to balance,
5:26
Speaker 4: and it never has been in the in the writing
5:28
Speaker 4: and journalism space when you're working for the team, understanding
5:32
Speaker 4: like you want to be able to write about things,
5:34
Speaker 4: you know that write about the things that are going
5:36
Speaker 4: on and inform the fans and inform the audience knowing
5:39
Speaker 4: you're working for the team, but also trying to keep
5:41
Speaker 4: that integrity of trying to write things great.
5:43
Speaker 2: That's never been an easy balance.
5:45
Speaker 4: Sports writers have talked about the difficulty of it and
5:48
Speaker 4: and how the emergence of working for the team has
5:50
Speaker 4: created certain challenges, And I feel like he's handled it
5:52
Speaker 4: all in stride and done a great job providing great content,
5:56
Speaker 4: not upsetting anybody, right, being able to serve the masters
5:59
Speaker 4: and still serve the audience with integrity and right with
6:02
Speaker 4: integrity and basically, you know.
6:06
Speaker 2: Done a great job. Yeah.
6:07
Speaker 5: Yeah, And Drew would be able to speak about it
6:09
Speaker 5: more as to the you know, difficulties that that position
6:13
Speaker 5: may or may not have encountered early on with the
6:17
Speaker 5: backlash and the thought of if you are going to
6:19
Speaker 5: have MLB on potentially your pace stub, how does that
6:24
Speaker 5: impact your conversation. Now, fast forward twenty five years, one
6:28
Speaker 5: of the biggest sports entities owns part of one of
6:30
Speaker 5: the leagues, the biggest league. So like to think that
6:33
Speaker 5: that cross pollination, that ancestual nature wasn't going to happen
6:37
Speaker 5: in pro sports. I think it's somewhat folly and also
6:40
Speaker 5: proves that hey man, people have been doing it for
6:42
Speaker 5: a long time. It just depends on the quality of
6:45
Speaker 5: the person in the quality of the work, and Adam
6:46
Speaker 5: Mcalvey is the good. So we were very excited to
6:48
Speaker 5: be able to see that yesterday, love him get in
6:50
Speaker 5: a moment, would have liked somebody to queue him up
6:53
Speaker 5: that he was going to be on television so he
6:55
Speaker 5: would have been able to do the customary wave. However,
6:58
Speaker 5: played it right down the middle, plated coolest possible and
7:01
Speaker 5: just let everybody know, a six two Brewers win is
7:03
Speaker 5: still the story here at a multi hit game for self,
7:05
Speaker 5: you look who was inserted late in the lineup after
7:08
Speaker 5: Garrett Mitchell goes out, Jackson Cheerio two hit day, Jake
7:11
Speaker 5: Bower's two hit day, Andrew Vaughan two hit day all
7:15
Speaker 5: would have been a nice day at the Potawatami Sports Book.
7:17
Speaker 5: If you were investing on that would not be a
7:19
Speaker 5: fun day if you're investing on the Cincinnati Reds, because
7:21
Speaker 5: I mean, my goodness, that roller coaster ride ends once again.
7:25
Speaker 5: And as Brewers fans always have an eye cast towards
7:30
Speaker 5: the north side of Chicago, that team has now won
7:33
Speaker 5: fourteen consecutive games at home.
7:36
Speaker 2: I think it's like eight straight overall.
7:39
Speaker 5: And their win last night, they walk off the Reds
7:43
Speaker 5: three straight games, and in worse fashion seemingly each individual night.
7:49
Speaker 5: Two nights ago, Bush ties it in the eighth, wins
7:53
Speaker 5: it in the tenth. Last night, the Reds plate four
7:56
Speaker 5: runs in the top of the ninth inning, including a
7:58
Speaker 5: two run sack fly one that you generally always see, yeah,
8:03
Speaker 5: and then still blow it in the ninth where they
8:06
Speaker 5: walk off walk after my man, Terry Francona says, Hey,
8:10
Speaker 5: you know what we definitely want to do here with
8:11
Speaker 5: two outs, Let's intentionally walk the bases loaded. The first
8:16
Speaker 5: thing that you have to do when you intentionally walk
8:18
Speaker 5: the bases loaded is not throw three straight balls.
8:21
Speaker 2: To the next guy.
8:22
Speaker 5: Potentially five straight may have gotten bailed out on a
8:25
Speaker 5: nice on a nice call and then a non challenge moment.
8:28
Speaker 5: I hope abs that was a tough moment for Reds
8:31
Speaker 5: fans last night, because here they think they snatched this
8:33
Speaker 5: son of a gun away and then all of a
8:35
Speaker 5: sudden peak her armstrong ties at the bottom of the ninth,
8:38
Speaker 5: bottom of the tenth.
8:39
Speaker 4: They go out here and win at seven to six,
8:40
Speaker 4: and the Cubs just can't lose, right frustrating, frustrating, they
8:43
Speaker 4: can't lose right now. We were lamenting it this morning,
8:45
Speaker 4: Dave as well, and I was saying, guys, is this
8:49
Speaker 4: like if you remember last year the Brewis were on
8:50
Speaker 4: their great streak and Cubs fans were, you know, just
8:54
Speaker 4: absolutely commiserating, upset. Well, we cannot ever get the Bruise
8:59
Speaker 4: will never lose it, like they're inevitable.
9:00
Speaker 2: The Brewers never lose.
9:02
Speaker 4: I guess that's what it feels like right now when
9:03
Speaker 4: it seems like the Cubs won't They're twenty five and twelve.
9:06
Speaker 2: You mentioned Billy.
9:07
Speaker 4: The home record's crazy, and it just seems like they
9:09
Speaker 4: keep finding ways to win. It's early, obviously, but they
9:12
Speaker 4: look like a juggernaut so far, and yeah, I was
9:15
Speaker 4: thinking about young Man yesterday when Petek row Armstrong hit
9:18
Speaker 4: that homer. I was thinking about young man in the
9:19
Speaker 4: car that was excited to see Peek Corow Armstrong, you know,
9:23
Speaker 4: started crying.
9:23
Speaker 2: And we hope the game that they went to was yesterday.
9:25
Speaker 5: That would be I hope the game that they were
9:27
Speaker 5: going to was yesterday, because that is a that's a
9:29
Speaker 5: barn burner of a game. To be able to get
9:31
Speaker 5: tie it up in the ninth with a homer, win
9:33
Speaker 5: it in the tenth again. Fourteenth straight win at home,
9:37
Speaker 5: I think is the most consecutive home wins that they've
9:39
Speaker 5: had in three decades or something like that. It's it's
9:43
Speaker 5: a wild number to be able to celebrate. And just
9:47
Speaker 5: remember that the Brewers are nine games back of that
9:49
Speaker 5: team in June last year. There's still plenty of time
9:52
Speaker 5: to be able to rattle it off. At some point, though,
9:55
Speaker 5: we're going to start getting into a point where the
9:57
Speaker 5: Brewers are going to have to make one of those.
10:00
Speaker 5: It's just like they had in the middle of last
10:01
Speaker 5: year if you want to catch that team, because they
10:03
Speaker 5: are having some fun throughout the North side of Chicago.
10:07
Speaker 5: We had some fun yesterday, finally getting to hear from
10:09
Speaker 5: new Bucks head coach Taylor Jenkins, that now interesting setup
10:15
Speaker 5: at the Milwaukee Art Museum for the two o'clock presser yesterday.
10:18
Speaker 5: First off, sweet looking backdrop. You want to talk about
10:21
Speaker 5: a place to be able to show off from Milwaukee
10:22
Speaker 5: Art Museum is one of them. Probably should go to
10:25
Speaker 5: the Art Museum way more.
10:26
Speaker 4: Reminded me of the American Idol. When they have an
10:28
Speaker 4: American Idol in town. They had the panel of the
10:31
Speaker 4: Colle Drapa same deal. J Loo was there, everybody so
10:34
Speaker 4: Scotty McCreary, it's where he became famous. Oh yeah, great backdrop, Billy.
10:38
Speaker 4: Yeah we could go with some time in the Art Museum.
10:40
Speaker 5: Yeah, I probably won't, but I would urge everybody else
10:42
Speaker 5: to go because it looks awesome, like it is one
10:45
Speaker 5: of the cooler places in the city to go and
10:47
Speaker 5: check out. So they highlight it yesterday and highlight it
10:50
Speaker 5: with a three person panel right there, smack dab in
10:53
Speaker 5: the middle. New head coach of your Milwaukee Bucks, Taylor Jenkins,
10:57
Speaker 5: to his right, the general manager John Horse newly extended
11:02
Speaker 5: locked in even though many Bucks fans are looking around
11:04
Speaker 5: saying who on Earth is gonna be making these picks.
11:06
Speaker 5: Who on Earth is gonna be picking the players? John
11:08
Speaker 5: Horse is picking the players. John Horse is in charge
11:11
Speaker 5: as well as just off to the left of Taylor
11:14
Speaker 5: Jenkins was one Jimmy Haslam. And while many I thought
11:22
Speaker 5: better than I watching on YouTube on on bucks dot com,
11:25
Speaker 5: good feed, by the way of the proceedings that they had,
11:30
Speaker 5: I was a little bit surprised when Jimmy said, you know,
11:33
Speaker 5: my partner here is actually in Europe West couldn't make
11:36
Speaker 5: it this day.
11:36
Speaker 2: So hey, by the way, we might have been right, Yes,
11:40
Speaker 2: we might have been right.
11:40
Speaker 5: Over the last couple of weeks on the delay, we
11:42
Speaker 5: had vacations rolling on. If they had a European vacation
11:45
Speaker 5: rolling on, we had the NFL owners meetings happening. Taylor
11:49
Speaker 5: Jenkins had to be checking out schools for the young ones,
11:51
Speaker 5: so we had a lot going on as to why
11:53
Speaker 5: it took a couple of days and maybe a week
11:55
Speaker 5: or so to be able to get to this time.
11:57
Speaker 5: But man Jim Osarski asked, Jimmy has right out of
12:01
Speaker 5: the gates the first question, well, the second question, because
12:04
Speaker 5: Eric name starts off the proceedings after the quick introduction.
12:07
Speaker 5: I'm gonna be real brief, said Jimmy HASLM. This is
12:10
Speaker 5: who the ownership group wanted, all right, So everybody wondering,
12:14
Speaker 5: we wanted this guy.
12:15
Speaker 2: He was transparent about it. We wanted this guy right here.
12:19
Speaker 2: We picked him. Didn't matter about anything else, so understandably.
12:23
Speaker 5: So the second question of the day, first one from
12:25
Speaker 5: Jim Osarski, who was phenomenal during the press or yesterday,
12:28
Speaker 5: saying with Laura Nickel asked, uh, well, let's talk about
12:32
Speaker 5: the seven foot two time MVP elephant in the room,
12:35
Speaker 5: mister Haslam. And when you look at this being a
12:39
Speaker 5: big decision, and they're also a pretty big decision coming
12:42
Speaker 5: up with one thirty four, it's a big one.
12:44
Speaker 4: It's a big one.
12:45
Speaker 1: Then you got to get right in. John knows it
12:47
Speaker 1: and Wes knows it.
12:48
Speaker 4: Uh.
12:48
Speaker 2: And we didn't hold back with Taylor. We just said, listen,
12:50
Speaker 2: he may or me up. He said, don't call him
12:53
Speaker 2: because of that, because you want to be straight up
12:54
Speaker 2: to you want to be straight up Now.
12:57
Speaker 5: That was actually in the moments after, in a even
13:00
Speaker 5: better huddle up moment that that happened there as well,
13:04
Speaker 5: and that's where the click one came from he said
13:07
Speaker 5: in the actual press conference right out of the gate,
13:09
Speaker 5: it's like, yeah, we draft some ont six weeks, probably
13:13
Speaker 5: figure it out.
13:14
Speaker 2: Then we'll probably figure it out by then.
13:15
Speaker 5: Why why do we have that line of demarcation, Well,
13:18
Speaker 5: he said, a pretty natural time for it.
13:19
Speaker 2: So I just think.
13:20
Speaker 1: Before the draft is a natural time, right, because you're gonna,
13:24
Speaker 1: you know, if Johannas does play somewhere else, so we
13:26
Speaker 1: have to get a lot of assets, and that's John's
13:28
Speaker 1: job to do it.
13:28
Speaker 2: If he's here, then you build a team differently.
13:30
Speaker 1: So and it's I think that's also no.
13:33
Speaker 3: So I just want to stress that our relationship with him,
13:36
Speaker 3: despite what was reported about certain ESPN writers, because it's
13:40
Speaker 3: very possible.
13:42
Speaker 5: Certain ESPN reporters got it wrong, we got a really
13:45
Speaker 5: good rapport and a really good relationship.
13:46
Speaker 2: You but they love taking their.
13:48
Speaker 5: Shout it also in the midst of the conversation or
13:52
Speaker 5: the actual press conference of listen, you honestly, you're going
13:56
Speaker 5: to sign the super Max extension or he's gonna play
13:59
Speaker 5: somewhere else, and we're gonna do what's best for the
14:01
Speaker 5: Milwaukee Bucks and for Jannest and we're gonna do it together.
14:05
Speaker 5: I think that was maybe the most important part and
14:07
Speaker 5: also the biggest signal of I hope you grabbed your
14:11
Speaker 5: thirty four jerseys in as many memories as possible of
14:13
Speaker 5: Giannis at Kungo because he is playing basketball in twenty
14:15
Speaker 5: six twenty seven in a different uniform. That felt rather
14:20
Speaker 5: pointed and honest. However, I thought at all parties, because
14:24
Speaker 5: everybody got a taste, right. Taylor Jenkins got a quick
14:26
Speaker 5: Jianness question, John Hors got a couple of Gyiannest questions.
14:29
Speaker 5: Jimmy Haslam got a couple of Yannest questions. Also got
14:32
Speaker 5: a question of is this going to mean that we're
14:34
Speaker 5: gonna see you a lot more?
14:35
Speaker 2: Right?
14:35
Speaker 4: Like?
14:36
Speaker 5: Are you going to be a part of the basketball conversation?
14:38
Speaker 5: Oh and the decision decision making process. He's like, listen,
14:44
Speaker 5: we're partners in this thing. Wes and I are partners
14:46
Speaker 5: in this thing. But yeah, you're gonna start seeing me
14:48
Speaker 5: a lot more.
14:49
Speaker 2: You're gonna start seeing me a lot more.
14:51
Speaker 5: That money and that what was it a two point
14:53
Speaker 5: nine billion dollar valuation of the company when he purchased
14:57
Speaker 5: in on Mark Lazari Steak, We're gonna start make and
15:00
Speaker 5: our voice heard a little bit more in the Jimmy
15:02
Speaker 5: and d Haslam Sports group. So you're gonna see Jimmy
15:05
Speaker 5: a little bit more. Hopefully you hear more honesty from him.
15:08
Speaker 5: I actually thought, Arman, in the midst of all of it,
15:11
Speaker 5: they said exactly what you had to say. We know
15:14
Speaker 5: where we stand. We would like Giannis to be a
15:17
Speaker 5: member of the Milwaukee Bucks going forward. We also want
15:20
Speaker 5: him to want to be a member of the Milwaukee
15:22
Speaker 5: Bucks going forward. Similar conversation a little later on in
15:25
Speaker 5: the night on inside the NBA about wanting to feel wanted.
15:28
Speaker 2: I don't want to go somewhere if I'm not wanting
15:30
Speaker 2: to hope now and going up.
15:31
Speaker 5: But like you at some point need to say the
15:34
Speaker 5: quiet part out loud that this does if indeed we
15:38
Speaker 5: want a scoop, Robinson was saying yesterday in some sweet publication,
15:44
Speaker 5: like Jiannis wants the family atmosphere that we know of.
15:47
Speaker 5: We want to have multiple people on the team, We
15:50
Speaker 5: want to have many people around, We want to know
15:53
Speaker 5: the camaraderie of the organization. We wanted to feel homeye,
15:56
Speaker 5: we wanted to feel more family like. We want to
15:58
Speaker 5: feel like we felt when he first came out, came
16:01
Speaker 5: to the Milwaukee Bucks.
16:02
Speaker 2: We want it to be that kind of style. Yeah,
16:05
Speaker 2: and I think the.
16:06
Speaker 5: Bucks have made it pretty clear we're that's what we
16:09
Speaker 5: want to do too. But we want you to know
16:12
Speaker 5: that if this is how it's gonna be, then we're
16:14
Speaker 5: done with all this. That you're either gonna sign the
16:17
Speaker 5: Supermax and be a Milwaukee Buck or this is the
16:20
Speaker 5: natural breakpoint. And it feels like it has been put
16:23
Speaker 5: both sides rather crystal clear. If there's gonna be a separation,
16:27
Speaker 5: let's be honest on both sides, and let's know if
16:30
Speaker 5: we want to have it right.
16:31
Speaker 4: And we're gonna know and and going to know and
16:34
Speaker 4: gonna have set a time to know and to have
16:36
Speaker 4: the conversation to make a decision not let it linger,
16:39
Speaker 4: which was interest the most interesting part of what Jimmy
16:42
Speaker 4: Haslin said, and I appreciated the honesty and the transparency.
16:45
Speaker 4: It also seems like a little bit, you know, the
16:48
Speaker 4: implication was the ball was gonna be in his court
16:50
Speaker 4: a little bit. We're gonna let you honist know. Either
16:52
Speaker 4: you want to be here you don't, we will, you know,
16:54
Speaker 4: offer him the extension. That's what he kind of implied
16:57
Speaker 4: during the presser. That they can set it straight up.
16:59
Speaker 5: He's either gonna signed the extension site, right, so it's
17:01
Speaker 5: gonna go play somewhere else.
17:03
Speaker 2: So I think that's a good thing.
17:04
Speaker 4: And it's interesting because you realize when you started hearing
17:07
Speaker 4: Jimmy has them talk that you haven't heard from him much, right,
17:10
Speaker 4: And it was like, boy, you almost forget like he
17:12
Speaker 4: has that twang as little Jerry Jones and him like
17:15
Speaker 4: that that's what he sounds like, because we just haven't
17:16
Speaker 4: heard from him much, but now we did. He but
17:20
Speaker 4: he was forthright and explaining kind of the lingering questions
17:23
Speaker 4: that would have been on people's mind. You know, what's
17:26
Speaker 4: the communication, what's the relationship? Like is why isn't wes here?
17:30
Speaker 4: Are you guys partners? All those things? He got out
17:32
Speaker 4: of the way and when we have the conversation with
17:33
Speaker 4: you honest, So it was good.
17:35
Speaker 2: To hear that. I appreciated it.
17:37
Speaker 4: I think some you know, I tweeted last night that
17:39
Speaker 4: it feels like he's been the most disconnected owner just
17:41
Speaker 4: because we haven't heard him much. Now he was front
17:44
Speaker 4: and center the fact he said, Okay, you're gonna hear
17:46
Speaker 4: from you more. It's just that I hadn't hurt from
17:47
Speaker 4: him much. I appreciated the things he said though, and
17:50
Speaker 4: I appreciate the transparency Billy, and it is interesting to
17:53
Speaker 4: know that we will get at least they want to
17:55
Speaker 4: get a resolution before the draft.
17:57
Speaker 2: I want to mention this.
17:58
Speaker 4: Jim o'zarski got a quote from Giannis in his article.
18:03
Speaker 2: Obviously honest wasn't there, but Jannis was actually a Tom's
18:06
Speaker 2: up an Apple. He was at Tom's and Apple apparently
18:08
Speaker 2: great place to go now some one of the absolute best.
18:11
Speaker 4: He's great Tom's driving now some people noting that maybe
18:13
Speaker 4: he wasn't there exactly yesterday or they were asked to
18:16
Speaker 4: himbarg with a picture. I don't know, but that was
18:18
Speaker 4: a completely random I'm like, is this AI first thing
18:21
Speaker 4: you think about?
18:21
Speaker 2: Is this thing real? You know you see it on
18:23
Speaker 2: the internet. Is this thing real? Tom Tom's ain't doing
18:25
Speaker 2: that doing that.
18:26
Speaker 5: Tom's is not doing some AI bull I agree, and
18:29
Speaker 5: trying to pull over a rug on its loyal customers
18:33
Speaker 5: that some people said is actually ridiculously disrespectful that people
18:37
Speaker 5: would think.
18:38
Speaker 2: Tom's was doing that. Can you think that about.
18:40
Speaker 5: An American institution and one of the best in this
18:42
Speaker 5: state that damn swirl cone that they have there. Tom's
18:46
Speaker 5: is a national treasure. So you shut your mouth while
18:48
Speaker 5: you're starting say stuff about Toms.
18:50
Speaker 4: I need to go and I need me any to
18:52
Speaker 4: go there at some point soon, because an institution is
18:55
Speaker 4: the correct way.
18:56
Speaker 5: That's embarrassing that you haven't. It's actually rather embarrassing for you,
19:00
Speaker 5: you that you have not been two times.
19:01
Speaker 2: I'll take that, lt I'll take that.
19:03
Speaker 4: L uh So he did get a quote from me, honest,
19:05
Speaker 4: it was I had the conversation. I don't think Milwaukee
19:07
Speaker 4: is just getting a good coach. I think they're getting
19:09
Speaker 4: a good person. And that's where it starts, with having
19:11
Speaker 4: a good person that's gonna be able to set the tone,
19:14
Speaker 4: set the culture and what the Milwaukee and what Milwaukee
19:16
Speaker 4: Bucks basketball is all about.
19:17
Speaker 2: He's a really good coach.
19:18
Speaker 4: Quote and and the question asked for the prospect of
19:21
Speaker 4: being coached by Jenkins, Tenantcumbo said, quote, we'll see.
19:24
Speaker 2: So obviously it's up in the air. You gotta love
19:27
Speaker 2: it well. And yeah, I mean he's not gonna say
19:30
Speaker 2: for sure I get in.
19:31
Speaker 4: But but the but at least the idea set forth
19:34
Speaker 4: by Jimmy Haslam, who we heard from yesterday was that, look,
19:38
Speaker 4: we want to get this thing settled before the draft.
19:40
Speaker 4: He's gonna do it or he isn't. This is gonna
19:42
Speaker 4: be you know, the relationship.
19:45
Speaker 5: Did you hear what I heard in that Giannis played
19:47
Speaker 5: his last game for the Milwaukee Bucks.
19:49
Speaker 2: I didn't take it that way, but I did imply.
19:51
Speaker 4: I did take the implication that the balls in his
19:53
Speaker 4: court and we're okay if he walks, Like, if he
19:56
Speaker 4: does it, so be it. We're gonna get the best
19:58
Speaker 4: we can for him. If he wants to be here,
20:00
Speaker 4: that's fine. But it wasn't. It wasn't the idea of
20:03
Speaker 4: we'll we'll do anything to make sure we ACQUI asked
20:06
Speaker 4: any demand. So maybe in that sense, yes, like we're
20:09
Speaker 4: not gonna beg him to stay, but if he walks,
20:12
Speaker 4: he walks, but we will if he wants to say,
20:14
Speaker 4: we'll have him, which is maybe not.
20:16
Speaker 2: You know, he's gone.
20:21
Speaker 5: I like the mental gymnastics of how you walked around
20:23
Speaker 5: there to try to make it still seem very nice
20:25
Speaker 5: and comfy to Giannis.
20:26
Speaker 2: They told him like, hey, you're.
20:27
Speaker 5: Either gonna sign this this thing or we are going
20:29
Speaker 5: to be I think we're gonna be done. Here, right,
20:31
Speaker 5: and and whether or not that's been put together, because
20:34
Speaker 5: I thought Jimmy also said something in there as well,
20:37
Speaker 5: like the communication every time that we've had communication with him,
20:41
Speaker 5: every time that we've talked to ganis been awesome. Yeah,
20:45
Speaker 5: but you know, agents get involved, other people get involved,
20:49
Speaker 5: different parts of the conversation get involved and involved. And
20:53
Speaker 5: I thought that was again rather pointed in a point
20:56
Speaker 5: that they wanted to make, because.
21:00
Speaker 2: Where what do we want?
21:01
Speaker 5: Do we want what these guys on the agency are
21:03
Speaker 5: talking about, Why don't you go and negotiate with New
21:06
Speaker 5: York and see if you can get a package there,
21:08
Speaker 5: because that's where I want to be or this is
21:10
Speaker 5: my team, this is my bleeping city, and uh, we're
21:13
Speaker 5: going to figure out how this locker room wins together,
21:16
Speaker 5: because I think those two are fundamentally different, and they've
21:20
Speaker 5: both been for the last year or so coming from
21:23
Speaker 5: what the cloud.
21:24
Speaker 2: Or the cover would be thirty four.
21:26
Speaker 4: And and to be honest is and you honest has
21:28
Speaker 4: said that, right, He's like, no, those my agent can
21:31
Speaker 4: say things. People around the can say things, but I
21:33
Speaker 4: haven't said it myself. And that's kind of the cover
21:35
Speaker 4: he's used for that situation.
21:36
Speaker 2: So somebody works for someone. Yeah, oh absolutely, the.
21:40
Speaker 5: Agent works for the player, and I think there might
21:42
Speaker 5: be a reason why he represents your.
21:44
Speaker 4: Voice and when they when they say something, they represent
21:47
Speaker 4: your voice. That by proxy, and that's the way everyone
21:49
Speaker 4: takes it, and that's what they should take it.
21:51
Speaker 5: What did you hear yesterday as Taylor Jenkins was introduced
21:54
Speaker 5: as the newest head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks. You know,
21:57
Speaker 5: he did give some sweet basketball stuff of how on
22:01
Speaker 5: how they're gonna play and the connectivity that they're gonna have.
22:03
Speaker 2: Culture, but the players that are.
22:04
Speaker 5: Going to be there, all the good buzzwords you have
22:07
Speaker 5: to have when you're the new head coach.
22:08
Speaker 2: There. I thought maybe my favorite part was so good
22:11
Speaker 2: to be home.
22:12
Speaker 5: So good to be home, home for ten months, but
22:14
Speaker 5: a very very impressionable ten months for one Taylor Jenkins
22:18
Speaker 5: as he returns as the newest head coach of the
22:20
Speaker 5: Milwaukee Bucks. But their newest owner was the one that
22:23
Speaker 5: made a lot of the headlines yesterday. We'll discuss at
22:26
Speaker 5: eight seven seven, seven, nine four one nine seven three,
22:28
Speaker 5: hoping to be joined by our friend Hunter Bombgart rested
22:31
Speaker 5: and recovered later on in the seven o'clock hour, as
22:33
Speaker 5: always we have halftime with our friend Scott Dolphin. Plenty
22:36
Speaker 5: of time for you on the comments section, YouTube x
22:39
Speaker 5: and Facebook today streaming worldwide on the iHeartRadio appits Fox
22:43
Speaker 5: Sports Radio Wisconsin. All the important things that everybody yesterday
22:46
Speaker 5: sadly was was not necessarily tuned in for everybody yesterday
22:51
Speaker 5: was tuned in for answers on one thirty four one
22:53
Speaker 5: giannisi Detakumbo and his longevity with the Milwaukee Bucks and
22:58
Speaker 5: in the conversation, different ways of hearing it, but it
23:02
Speaker 5: did seem like they could be headed towards very much
23:05
Speaker 5: the divorce later on this summer.
23:07
Speaker 2: Taylor Jenkins is pretty clued in on the situation.
23:10
Speaker 5: He knows the situation because John Hors made it pretty
23:12
Speaker 5: clear that this was about this whole process was about
23:15
Speaker 5: hiring Taylor Jenkins, not making anybody else happy.
23:18
Speaker 3: It was clear to us in who we need to
23:20
Speaker 3: hire to have as a partner with our organization going
23:23
Speaker 3: forward to build sustainable success for years to come in Milwaukee.
23:27
Speaker 3: And this situation, you know, it wasn't about Giannis or not.
23:30
Speaker 3: None of the players. In years past, we've talked to
23:32
Speaker 3: a lot of players and seek console and sometimes that
23:34
Speaker 3: was right, sometimes I was wrong. This was about hiring
23:37
Speaker 3: Taylor Jenkins. We had a list, it was a titleist
23:39
Speaker 3: of candidates. We vetted it, and when our first step
23:43
Speaker 3: of our process was engaged Taylor, let's see where that goes.
23:46
Speaker 3: And it ended up with us hiring him, and that's
23:47
Speaker 3: where we are today.
23:48
Speaker 5: He was our guy, Jacob first, and we didn't talk
23:51
Speaker 5: to anybody else. Nobody told us to hire him. We
23:54
Speaker 5: wanted to hire him, so we went out and hired him.
23:56
Speaker 4: A change of a tone from what we've heard in
23:58
Speaker 4: the past, right, I think that's last yet, right, I mean,
24:01
Speaker 4: especially after Budenholzer's departure, there was the idea and the
24:05
Speaker 4: tone was clear, like we want someone that Yannis wants.
24:08
Speaker 4: We want him to be part of it. It's going
24:09
Speaker 4: to be part of this. You know, he's the son.
24:12
Speaker 5: When Budenholzer was first hired, there was the super secret
24:15
Speaker 5: lunch that him, Giannis and Chris Middleton had before he
24:19
Speaker 5: was even hired, but before there.
24:22
Speaker 2: Was the sign name on it.
24:24
Speaker 5: It was Hey, how about you guys talk to this
24:25
Speaker 5: guy and meet over here at the Mecca, which is
24:27
Speaker 5: for some overpriced nachos, and figure out what you guys
24:30
Speaker 5: to know.
24:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were if they were a man good point, which.
24:32
Speaker 4: Is all correct, I think, because at that time, you
24:35
Speaker 4: have two you know, prime young you had to or star.
24:39
Speaker 5: I was gonna say maybe emerging stars. He had one
24:42
Speaker 5: n MVP he had won in a Most Improved Player
24:47
Speaker 5: I believe at the time, but it was looking like
24:49
Speaker 5: he was going to be the guy, and Chris Middleton
24:52
Speaker 5: was still a Stalworth and an improving guy, but neither
24:55
Speaker 5: of them were established stars yet.
24:57
Speaker 4: But a clear idea that that's what the franchisees success,
24:59
Speaker 4: that that would be the direction we're going. So these
25:01
Speaker 4: two guys have to be, you know, in in concert
25:04
Speaker 4: kind of with the Higher, and if we want to
25:06
Speaker 4: make it work, it's gonna be with these two guys.
25:08
Speaker 4: But yeah, Billy, the tone was definitely different. A lot
25:11
Speaker 4: more talk about building, a lot more talk about with
25:14
Speaker 4: or without you Honest, a lot more talk about.
25:16
Speaker 2: You know, we want to make the right higher independent
25:18
Speaker 2: of those things.
25:20
Speaker 4: So in that sense, that's where many will get the
25:23
Speaker 4: notion like, all right, they're just gonna let him walk
25:25
Speaker 4: out the door, which might be the case.
25:27
Speaker 2: I think they would like.
25:28
Speaker 4: To have you Honest back if he chooses to be back,
25:32
Speaker 4: But that might be a situation as well where they're like, well,
25:35
Speaker 4: we're okay moving on, so let's kind of let's kind
25:39
Speaker 4: of set the table in that it seems like we're
25:41
Speaker 4: okay moving on, so maybe we just do it.
25:44
Speaker 2: And that's how I heard it. I'm not trying to
25:46
Speaker 2: speak for you.
25:47
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I think and I do think some people
25:49
Speaker 5: heard it as we're kind of done with what we
25:52
Speaker 5: put up with last year.
25:54
Speaker 4: Yes, that that part of it's true. It's like a
25:56
Speaker 4: put up or shut up deal. We want to know
25:57
Speaker 4: one way or the other. We'd like to have you,
25:59
Speaker 4: but we don't want to have to do it by
26:00
Speaker 4: jumping through all these hoops.
26:01
Speaker 2: We don't want you this way anymore.
26:03
Speaker 4: Sure now the question now, would would like a verbal
26:07
Speaker 4: you know, like understanding or some sort of understanding on
26:10
Speaker 4: the extension be enough to assuage that and to kind
26:14
Speaker 4: of like, you know, acquiess saying all right, then I'm
26:16
Speaker 4: ready moving forward.
26:17
Speaker 2: I'm committed.
26:18
Speaker 4: We won't have questions for me or my agent if
26:20
Speaker 4: we both agree moving forward that I'm going to sign
26:22
Speaker 4: this deal, or would signing the deal just kind of
26:25
Speaker 4: you know, what would that continue? And if that's going
26:28
Speaker 4: to continue. It seems like that's not a situation the
26:30
Speaker 4: Bucks would want to.
26:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, and what.
26:31
Speaker 5: Signing the extension would do is then make it a
26:33
Speaker 5: situation like every other NBA star over the last seven
26:37
Speaker 5: years has kind of had disgruntled what's the best way
26:41
Speaker 5: to make out for it?
26:42
Speaker 2: Money? Money always, Money solves.
26:45
Speaker 5: Money solves a lot of problems the most, especially when
26:48
Speaker 5: it is amongst disappointment in success. Well, you know what,
26:53
Speaker 5: Miles Garrett, I know you don't like playing for the
26:55
Speaker 5: Cleveland Browns. You know what you might like first forty
26:58
Speaker 5: million dollar cont yet.
26:59
Speaker 2: So don't worry abou super Bowl anymore. Worry about that money.
27:01
Speaker 5: Okay, sweet, I'll sign up right like there have been
27:05
Speaker 5: in and I'm I don't mean this as a plate
27:08
Speaker 5: like a point right at Haslam, but in his other stops.
27:11
Speaker 5: Money kind of solves a lot of the problems. Hey,
27:14
Speaker 5: this sweet quarterback that we really want who just led
27:16
Speaker 5: the NFL in passing but now is available on trade
27:19
Speaker 5: said I want to get traded from my team.
27:21
Speaker 2: I'm never playing there again.
27:22
Speaker 5: Even though I have like twenty something pending lawsuits, I
27:27
Speaker 5: don't want to play for them.
27:28
Speaker 2: You know where I definitely don't.
27:29
Speaker 5: Want to play Cleveland, all right, give him eighty more
27:33
Speaker 5: million dollars and anybody else is gonna give him and
27:35
Speaker 5: have him say no.
27:36
Speaker 2: Yes, what he didn't say no?
27:38
Speaker 5: Like there have been a lot of times where you've
27:40
Speaker 5: been able to solve it with money. And for Gianna's
27:42
Speaker 5: this particular time you mentioned after the botenholes are firing.
27:46
Speaker 5: That's also the offseason that they acquired Damian Lillard, after
27:48
Speaker 5: they hire Adrian Griffin. It also coincides with another deadline
27:52
Speaker 5: of are you gonna sign this extension? Are you gonna
27:55
Speaker 5: sign this extension? This would also be another clear indication
27:59
Speaker 5: of different this time going into the extension summer that hey,
28:03
Speaker 5: we're gonna make it pretty clear he ain't calling the shots,
28:06
Speaker 5: right like, we're gonna call the shots, and if he
28:08
Speaker 5: wants to and likes the shots that we have called,
28:11
Speaker 5: we'll all come and play together, right Otherwise it's gonna
28:14
Speaker 5: be a separation. And uh, I thought it was clear cut. Yesterday,
28:17
Speaker 5: I thought it was well. I thought it was well timed.
28:20
Speaker 5: It needed to be said at some particular point. And
28:22
Speaker 5: now it feels like a shot clock of six weeks
28:25
Speaker 5: until the draft comes up for the highest bidder as
28:28
Speaker 5: to thirty four service.
28:29
Speaker 4: And I still wonder if this is their way to
28:31
Speaker 4: make the honest make the decision to say goodbye, because
28:33
Speaker 4: obviously the honest has never wanted to say those words.
28:36
Speaker 2: Everything got to say it.
28:36
Speaker 4: But it's like, if we're gonna put the put the
28:38
Speaker 4: deadline out here publicly, if we're gonna you know, like
28:41
Speaker 4: you said, Billy, make the you know, kind of make
28:44
Speaker 4: those overt assertions that you're not gonna be the guy.
28:46
Speaker 2: We're gonna call the.
28:47
Speaker 4: Shots, kind of set that table to kind of push
28:50
Speaker 4: him out the door or make him come to that
28:52
Speaker 4: decision on his own.
28:53
Speaker 2: Is that the Is that the strategy?
28:55
Speaker 4: And it also seems like John Horse was always the
28:58
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go down fighting, uh to make this work
29:01
Speaker 4: with the honest window no matter what my tenure. But
29:04
Speaker 4: maybe it's like, all right, you're still the GM. We're
29:06
Speaker 4: gonna extend you, but now it's you have to GM
29:08
Speaker 4: a rebuild. You can't just be that guy anymore, and
29:10
Speaker 4: you have to have that understanding with me being Jimmy
29:13
Speaker 4: has them and Wes.
29:14
Speaker 2: Eden's maybe when sitting here from me yesterday, and.
29:17
Speaker 4: Because I think that change was reflected as well, and
29:20
Speaker 4: the tonality. One thing we know about Jimmy is you
29:22
Speaker 4: spoke about the money, Billy. A lot of people like
29:25
Speaker 4: Jimmy HASLM. A lot of people don't.
29:26
Speaker 2: Based on what he's done or what he hasn't done
29:28
Speaker 2: with the Browns.
29:29
Speaker 4: But the reality is, and we've always known this about him,
29:31
Speaker 4: the check book will be open, right And and there's
29:34
Speaker 4: a report from Sam Amick. Then Taylor Jenkins contracts set
29:38
Speaker 4: the market very high. So that implies that they were
29:40
Speaker 4: willing to shell out money for Taylor Jenkins to make
29:43
Speaker 4: him their guy. So that, you know, that kind of
29:46
Speaker 4: coincides with the idea that that.
29:49
Speaker 2: Figure it out. Spending money is not the problem for Jimmy.
29:52
Speaker 2: HASLM was the.
29:52
Speaker 5: First move after the the the change in ownership went down, right,
29:57
Speaker 5: I believe the first move after the full vetting of
30:01
Speaker 5: the NBA owners was Doc Rivers getting four years and
30:04
Speaker 5: forty million dollars off the broadcast table while paying two coaches, Right,
30:09
Speaker 5: like Chick, it really doesn't matter all that much, right
30:12
Speaker 5: Like so, I think especially my man's loaded up with
30:16
Speaker 5: whatever you know, good and bad has happened with the
30:18
Speaker 5: Flying Jay situation.
30:19
Speaker 2: I know that's also another reason. That's totally like I
30:22
Speaker 2: heard that. Yeah, but but he's got money, you're gonna
30:26
Speaker 2: spend it.
30:26
Speaker 5: So as long as it's on as long as it's
30:28
Speaker 5: on this team, and you're spending on on our team,
30:31
Speaker 5: I'm interested in it.
30:32
Speaker 2: Sure, I would like it to work. I think we
30:35
Speaker 2: all would like it to work.
30:36
Speaker 5: But even John Horse said, the work that they're putting
30:38
Speaker 5: in this year is gonna be on this lottery pick.
30:41
Speaker 5: He's like, we're gonna have a lottery pick for the
30:42
Speaker 5: first time in a long time, the first time in
30:44
Speaker 5: my group's tenure. So we're very excited about it. John
30:48
Speaker 5: Horse was, damn, you're giddy with talking about the lottery
30:50
Speaker 5: pick yesterday.
30:53
Speaker 3: There's a lot of excitement for what it can do
30:54
Speaker 3: for the organization. This opportunity represents a lot of things
30:57
Speaker 3: Taylor talked about. Opportunity to add a player to our
31:00
Speaker 3: roster that can have a big impact and hopefully a
31:03
Speaker 3: big impact quickly. It's also an opportunity to have an
31:06
Speaker 3: asset that we can consider using to build the team
31:10
Speaker 3: in other ways. And so I think the position that
31:13
Speaker 3: we're in, whether it ends up being two or it
31:15
Speaker 3: ends up being eleven, it's going to be important, but
31:19
Speaker 3: it's important.
31:20
Speaker 2: To have that asset no matter what.
31:21
Speaker 3: And I think we're really excited about that. Uh.
31:24
Speaker 5: And the two to eleven I heard some people asking,
31:27
Speaker 5: why would you just do that?
31:28
Speaker 2: That's not the that's not the lottery.
31:30
Speaker 5: They actually can't win technically the lottery because their pick,
31:33
Speaker 5: it'll they'll get the lesser of the New Orleans pick
31:36
Speaker 5: and their own pick, and the New Orleans pick will
31:39
Speaker 5: go to Atlanta, so.
31:41
Speaker 2: Wherever that ends up.
31:42
Speaker 5: If the Bucks were to somehow win the lottery, I
31:44
Speaker 5: think they got like a one point four percent chance
31:46
Speaker 5: or something like that, one point nine percent chance. Uh,
31:49
Speaker 5: they got a little worse odds than New Orleans does.
31:52
Speaker 5: If they were to win, the Atlanta Hawks would walk
31:55
Speaker 5: into the number one overall pick. That would be a
31:57
Speaker 5: nice lot in life after the team just lost in
31:59
Speaker 5: six games in most embarrassing fashion any team has ever
32:02
Speaker 5: exited the playoffs in they would be able to get
32:05
Speaker 5: one of the top picks in the draft. But when
32:08
Speaker 5: he like throws in the little caveat of and also
32:10
Speaker 5: build a team the other ways, you guys.
32:11
Speaker 2: Have seen me do it before.
32:12
Speaker 5: I move these chess pieces around arm and I we
32:15
Speaker 5: could do something here. It seems like they're they're pretty
32:18
Speaker 5: entrenched on bringing in somebody young to be able to
32:20
Speaker 5: grow with this career.
32:20
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I mean you have to. I think everybody
32:22
Speaker 4: knows that's the way. That's the way forward to rebuild
32:25
Speaker 4: is to do it. Now, you have to also pick correctly,
32:27
Speaker 4: and that's been a problem with the Bucks.
32:29
Speaker 5: And develop the player on there here. Yeah, you're right, well,
32:31
Speaker 5: both have been the problem for the Bucks.
32:32
Speaker 4: I think it is exciting and it's necessary to have
32:35
Speaker 4: draft picks because that's the way to build young is
32:38
Speaker 4: by drafting correctly. I keep coming back to the Sixers, like,
32:41
Speaker 4: you'd love to do what they've done with a young
32:43
Speaker 4: group backcourt group, you know, kind of with an aging
32:47
Speaker 4: MB but we Bucks haven't been able to do it.
32:49
Speaker 4: Let's face it, Billy getting a pick is one thing,
32:51
Speaker 4: but drafting well is the other. And since what Dante,
32:54
Speaker 4: I don't think they've had a really good pick at all.
32:56
Speaker 4: And then whether or not you feel Dante's a good
32:58
Speaker 4: pick is up for debate as well.
33:00
Speaker 2: I don't know.
33:01
Speaker 4: Malcolm Brogdon maybe, and it's been almost ten years since that,
33:04
Speaker 4: so that's been Brogden was.
33:05
Speaker 2: The second round pick. Yeah, thirty fourth overall. Yeah, that's
33:08
Speaker 2: been the best one.
33:09
Speaker 4: It's hard to really, I don't want to say not
33:11
Speaker 4: be excited because you are excited about having picks, because
33:14
Speaker 4: that's the way forward. But you have to make sure
33:17
Speaker 4: you have to try and get the right guy and
33:18
Speaker 4: see where it comes from. So getting the right players
33:20
Speaker 4: as important as having the pick. But hey, one coincides
33:23
Speaker 4: with the other. So well, we'll see where the bucks
33:26
Speaker 4: go from here. Maybe they'll get lucky and get a
33:28
Speaker 4: bit a nice pick. Who knows how the ping bung
33:29
Speaker 4: balls will will pop up?
33:31
Speaker 2: Come on, we'll see. We'll see him on Sunday.
33:32
Speaker 5: We'll see him on Sunday because everybody will be totally
33:35
Speaker 5: watching the NBA Draft lottery on Mother's Day afternoon. There's
33:40
Speaker 5: nothing else I can think of that my mom would
33:42
Speaker 5: like to do in the middle of Mother's Day then
33:44
Speaker 5: just you know, hang out right there.
33:45
Speaker 4: I don't know why, like why we haven't last time
33:49
Speaker 4: we got the the top pick, it was wasn't a
33:52
Speaker 4: Mallory that was there at the at the lottery. Wasn't
33:55
Speaker 4: a young Mallory Eden's there if I remember, I do
33:58
Speaker 4: believe that was correct. Well, she's a good luck charms.
34:00
Speaker 4: She hasn't been around. Come on, Mallory, come back. We
34:03
Speaker 4: need you back to be the good luck charm, to
34:04
Speaker 4: be around the situation. I mean, I think maybe that's
34:06
Speaker 4: the deal.
34:07
Speaker 2: Who did they draft with that early pen? Yeah, I
34:10
Speaker 2: mean that's I believe she was there for the Jabari. Yes,
34:13
Speaker 2: I think she was there.
34:14
Speaker 5: I think that one out pretty well, right well worked
34:17
Speaker 5: out for a second.
34:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was good for a hot second. That was
34:20
Speaker 2: gonna be our guy.
34:21
Speaker 4: I thought he played well before the h the ACL
34:24
Speaker 4: the first one he.
34:25
Speaker 2: Played really well.
34:26
Speaker 5: Now actually after the first one he still came back
34:29
Speaker 5: and played well.
34:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, well he was never playing playing defense, kidd me.
34:33
Speaker 2: You remember his press conference in Chicago.
34:34
Speaker 5: They're not paying me twenty million dollars play defense, brother,
34:37
Speaker 5: They want you to do something on defense. They would
34:39
Speaker 5: prefer you not just standing there and be invisible on defense.
34:42
Speaker 5: Eight seven seven seven nine seventy three. I like this
34:44
Speaker 5: one from Gopak, where was the new president yesterday?
34:49
Speaker 2: Question?
34:50
Speaker 5: Josh Glessing was not in the uh, in the the
34:53
Speaker 5: chair or on the panel.
34:56
Speaker 2: I do believe he was in the house yesterday, So
34:59
Speaker 2: that I mean, if you I wasn't there, I'd be wrong.
35:01
Speaker 5: Though, But I'm pretty sure he was there. I just
35:05
Speaker 5: don't believe he was at the super special podium. Now,
35:09
Speaker 5: maybe he should have that, you can, maybe he should
35:11
Speaker 5: have been in there, but I think he's he's pretty
35:15
Speaker 5: entrenched into that thing.
35:16
Speaker 4: Well, I will say this, I think it's an important
35:17
Speaker 4: distinction because if he was there but not speaking, that's
35:20
Speaker 4: totally understandable. We already have a dais of three important people,
35:23
Speaker 4: new coach GM and the obviously the owner.
35:25
Speaker 2: Frankly, we wanted to hear from the owner more than anything.
35:27
Speaker 4: No, we much rather heard from him than Josh Glessing.
35:29
Speaker 4: No offense to to Josh young Josh there. I'm sure
35:32
Speaker 4: it'd look great in a suit, But I mean, we
35:34
Speaker 4: much rather hear from those three guys. So if he
35:37
Speaker 4: was not there, that would be a conspicuous absence. But
35:39
Speaker 4: I don't think that. I don't know, I guess And
35:42
Speaker 4: to your point, Billy, I think he was there, but
35:44
Speaker 4: I believe he was there.
35:45
Speaker 5: I just don't believe he was one of the guys
35:47
Speaker 5: to hear from. Now I do believe we are gonna
35:48
Speaker 5: hear from Josh Glessing in more situations and a little
35:52
Speaker 5: bit more publicly. However, yesterday, when Jimmy Haslam's gonna pull
35:56
Speaker 5: up to the party, we want to hear from Jimmy
35:58
Speaker 5: and like being able to signal the fact that, uh,
36:01
Speaker 5: we're here and we're gonna start helping out a little
36:03
Speaker 5: bit more. We're not putting up with this losing that
36:05
Speaker 5: we've been watching here. You guys, they came to Cleveland
36:08
Speaker 5: a couple of years ago, got drummed by thirty. I
36:11
Speaker 5: had to make a call the next day. He had
36:12
Speaker 5: to get this new coach in here. That was embarrassing.
36:14
Speaker 5: I all my friends here, out of my boys in courtside.
36:17
Speaker 5: My new team's got drummed. We can't be doing this.
36:19
Speaker 5: Jimmy Haslam in that Southern twang into the conversation and
36:23
Speaker 5: into Milwaukee Bucks decision making and at the podium yesterday,
36:26
Speaker 5: and very very interesting stuff to be able to hear
36:29
Speaker 5: from another Southern gentleman that uh turned the sports world
36:33
Speaker 5: upside down.
36:35
Speaker 2: Passed away yesterday.
36:36
Speaker 5: We'll get we'll give a little uh, you know, due
36:38
Speaker 5: to Ted Turner coming up. We'll talk to some NBA
36:40
Speaker 5: playoffs coming up. Brewers get a win in the abbreviated
36:43
Speaker 5: series against the Cardinals and welcome in the New York Yankees.
36:47
Speaker 5: This weekend, Hunter Bombgart stops by in the third hour
36:50
Speaker 5: to talk crew with us. It's the Huddle hanging out
36:52
Speaker 5: with you on Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. You are then
36:54
Speaker 5: driving the boat.
36:55
Speaker 2: As I've rented.
36:56
Speaker 4: I mean, you can rent the little pontoon boats on
36:58
Speaker 4: the Milwaukee River for a couple hundred and then you
37:00
Speaker 4: drive your own boat.
37:01
Speaker 2: You just you kind of signing the way I'm paying money.
37:04
Speaker 5: I don't know that I want to drive the boat right, like, yeah, exactly,
37:07
Speaker 5: because I'm nervous about it being driven correctly and clearly
37:10
Speaker 5: I'm there to do something.
37:12
Speaker 2: Well, that's the other problem.
37:13
Speaker 4: So maybe in that situation you take the chance of
37:15
Speaker 4: driving the boat because you don't want any witnesses therefore,
37:18
Speaker 4: you know, to see what fair?
37:20
Speaker 2: That's my point. So I need pause.
37:23
Speaker 4: So I need to know if someone is driving the boat,
37:26
Speaker 4: and I'm assuming that case they just signed the waiver
37:28
Speaker 4: to take their own boat. Maybe it's a simple boat situation,
37:30
Speaker 4: like you know, turn it on, drive it, drive it
37:32
Speaker 4: back to shore.
37:33
Speaker 2: And how big is this boat? Are we are? We like,
37:35
Speaker 2: is there a house boat? Is there room on that boat?
37:38
Speaker 2: Is it probably a little room.
37:39
Speaker 5: Up is it just like a twenty six foot you know,
37:41
Speaker 5: speedboat that you're seeing out here at four win, Like,
37:43
Speaker 5: what are we doing the story that Arman and I
37:45
Speaker 5: are are are discussing here and bringing it up the
37:50
Speaker 5: Diana is seeing Mike Rabel thing just every moment you
37:54
Speaker 5: think it's going to die, it just sits up like
37:57
Speaker 5: the Undertaker. And yesterday Sports had a piece of information
38:04
Speaker 5: on a boat rental that was signed for by both
38:09
Speaker 5: Mike Vrabel and Diana Rossini back in two thousand and
38:13
Speaker 5: twenty one, just the two of them a private boat
38:18
Speaker 5: together for a day on the water. As TMZ reported,
38:21
Speaker 5: the NFL duo booked the vessel in Puttingham County, Tennessee,
38:25
Speaker 5: back in twenty twenty one, according to a source with
38:28
Speaker 5: direct knowledge, maybe the guy that was there, who also
38:31
Speaker 5: says that then Tennessee Titans head coach and the Journals
38:34
Speaker 5: were the only two people aboard for a two to
38:37
Speaker 5: three hour rental, three hour tour and last three hours.
38:41
Speaker 5: The timing of that outing might rise might raise some
38:45
Speaker 5: eyebrows because Diana Rossini was pregnant with her first child
38:50
Speaker 5: at the time. Man Man Documents obtained by TMZ show
38:54
Speaker 5: both signed the company waiver before heading out on the water.
38:58
Speaker 5: Source says that there was no visible PDA before they departed.
39:02
Speaker 2: Well, no, I also told.
39:03
Speaker 5: That Rabel and Rassini appeared quote cautious. I wonder why
39:09
Speaker 5: appeared cautious about photos being taken, And while she declined
39:13
Speaker 5: to pose at all with the staff, Vrabel agreed to
39:17
Speaker 5: snap one pick but asked that no images be publicly posted.
39:21
Speaker 2: So they knew. So people asked her for picture, so
39:24
Speaker 2: they knew who they were. This is what I don't understand,
39:27
Speaker 2: like and like, this is five years ago, and.
39:29
Speaker 5: We never heard that read one pick as long as
39:33
Speaker 5: it was never shared publicly.
39:34
Speaker 2: Got Well, they got shared. Now what else is next?
39:39
Speaker 5: In their defense, they didn't share it publicly right away,
39:43
Speaker 5: you know, TMS said, Hey, what who's got pictures?
39:46
Speaker 2: One check your phones? Got a couple of got a
39:49
Speaker 2: couple of thousand bucks.
39:49
Speaker 4: I got a couple thousand dollars. Yeah, I can make
39:52
Speaker 4: it worth your while.
39:53
Speaker 5: What I mean he gave birth TMZ. He continues Diana's
40:00
Speaker 5: and he gave birth later that summer to the first
40:04
Speaker 5: of her two kids. Married to Kevin Goldsmith. In twenty twenty,
40:07
Speaker 5: Verable married to his wife Jensens nineteen ninety nine.
40:09
Speaker 2: They sure two children. Yeah, yeah, that part's not necessarily
40:13
Speaker 2: the important one.
40:13
Speaker 5: But a week after the boat outing, Rascini posted on
40:16
Speaker 5: Instagram seemingly of Kevin on a New Jersey beach with
40:21
Speaker 5: the caption lucky to have great people to spend this
40:23
Speaker 5: holiday with. In July, as we reported, TMC continues speculation
40:27
Speaker 5: of their relationship growth with their Arizona boutique Stay and Diana.
40:33
Speaker 5: Rassini has been radio silent. You can't kill the story. Man,
40:36
Speaker 5: you're standing from the athletic.
40:38
Speaker 2: I want to believe it.
40:39
Speaker 5: Thought that that was gonna be the case, that at
40:40
Speaker 5: some point we're just gonna we're just gonna retire. I'll
40:43
Speaker 5: just I'll be that. I'll be here over here. You'll
40:45
Speaker 5: go coach Patriots separation. Nobody will think about it. Nobody
40:48
Speaker 5: will think about it. The one thing you cannot do,
40:52
Speaker 5: the one thing you cannot do.
40:55
Speaker 2: Is call a journalist wrong.
40:58
Speaker 5: Okay, Yeah, you say yeah, and you you imply that
41:02
Speaker 5: there is somewhat of a mistruth being told.
41:05
Speaker 2: This is a laughable statement. Yeah.
41:08
Speaker 5: I can't believe we are giving this much oxygen to
41:11
Speaker 5: this story.
41:11
Speaker 2: That's why I'm resigning.
41:12
Speaker 4: That Lebron look in their eyes, Lebron mean with the
41:15
Speaker 4: look like wrong, I'm gonna find everything.
41:18
Speaker 5: Like Jordan in a flu game. TMZ is as motivated
41:22
Speaker 5: as ever an Armin. They might have done this to themselves.
