- 2:57Speaker 4: Wow, yeah, all right.
- 3:00Speaker 3: Okay, big news from Porthopedic Associates of Wisconsin is a
- 3:06Speaker 3: differentsfore we got here drew dateline.
- 3:09Speaker 5: Switzerland, Lindsey Vaughn crashed in her final downhill before the
- 3:13Speaker 5: Courtina Winter Olympics on Friday and was left limping and
- 3:16Speaker 5: keeping weight off her left knee. Vaughn lost control when
- 3:19Speaker 5: landing a jump in a World Cup race and ended
- 3:21Speaker 5: up tangled in the safety nets on the upper portion
- 3:23Speaker 5: of the course. She eventually got up after receiving medical
- 3:26Speaker 5: attention and walked away gingerly, taking weight off her left
- 3:29Speaker 5: knee and using her polls to steady herself. She then
- 3:32Speaker 5: clicked her skis back on, but stopped to check her
- 3:35Speaker 5: left knee. She eventually made it to the finish area,
- 3:37Speaker 5: limped into attempt for medical attentions. The race was later
- 3:40Speaker 5: canceled after three of the first six racers crashed.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Wow, too much eyes. Maybe some of you know they
- 3:46Speaker 2: have to have the right type of snow and eye
- 3:48Speaker 2: you do it out there. I don't know.
- 3:50Speaker 6: You gotta give them credit because these World Cup races
- 3:53Speaker 6: not many Like we're right before the Olympics, right, yeah,
- 3:56Speaker 6: how many times in other sports you have a big
- 3:58Speaker 6: competition where the top athletes are going to participate in
- 4:00Speaker 6: before the Olympics.
- 4:01Speaker 2: Y'all get her credit for that. This stinks if she
- 4:03Speaker 2: can't be in the I mean this would be.
- 4:05Speaker 5: Before she entered the tent, she had an anxious expression
- 4:07Speaker 5: on her face, her eyes were closed during a long
- 4:09Speaker 5: embrace with teammate Jacqueline Wiles, who was leading the race
- 4:12Speaker 5: when it was canceled. Lindsay Vonus forty one, has been
- 4:15Speaker 5: the circuits leading downhiller this season, with two victories three
- 4:17Speaker 5: other podium finishes. She returned last season after a partial
- 4:20Speaker 5: right knee titanium replacement right crash occurred exactly a week
- 4:24Speaker 5: before the opening set, and we.
- 4:26Speaker 6: Were just talking about great comebacks, yeah, and she was.
- 4:29Speaker 6: She was poised to be one of the big favorites
- 4:31Speaker 6: in the in her events.
- 4:32Speaker 5: So her first Olympic race is February eighth, Yeah, women's downhill,
- 4:37Speaker 5: So she has exactly one on.
- 4:39Speaker 7: One week, nine days because it's the night the morning
- 4:41Speaker 7: of Super Bowl Sundays.
- 4:44Speaker 5: Was also planning on competing in the Super G and
- 4:46Speaker 5: the new Team Combined event at the game.
- 4:48Speaker 2: This is tough.
- 4:48Speaker 6: I mean, what famously you know, I remember in ninety
- 4:52Speaker 6: six Dominic Molchano had a stress fraction in her knee
- 4:55Speaker 6: and was able to recover like two weeks before in gymnastics.
- 4:58Speaker 6: But there's a totally different situation. And she was like
- 5:01Speaker 6: a lot younger obviously, and I saw Hikari Richardson got
- 5:05Speaker 6: pop for speeding and in terms of you know, when
- 5:08Speaker 6: you talk about Olympics breaking news, excessive speeding, going to
- 5:12Speaker 6: running too fast? No, yeah, good one good one, Billy. Sure,
- 5:17Speaker 6: let's see here. One hundred miles an hour in Orlando area.
- 5:20Speaker 6: Not good, not good.
- 5:22Speaker 5: So that's like ten over in Florida. Well, I mean,
- 5:25Speaker 5: I am very very dangerous, very very dangerous.
- 5:27Speaker 7: But you go to Florida, think you're gonna find about
- 5:29Speaker 7: twenty five people going.
- 5:30Speaker 2: So that's that's tough. I mean for Lindsay vond though,
- 5:32Speaker 2: it's you know.
- 5:33Speaker 7: She's on the announced desk last year and she was
- 5:35Speaker 7: going to be one of the odds on favorites to
- 5:38Speaker 7: win this year. Incredible, incredible turnaround. And I heard I was,
- 5:43Speaker 7: you know, kept up to speed with it by to
- 5:45Speaker 7: Rico talking about it and how passionately he was mentioning
- 5:48Speaker 7: and how excited he was to wake up in the
- 5:51Speaker 7: middle of the night the day that he's calling a
- 5:53Speaker 7: Super Bowl to go and watch her because you know
- 5:56Speaker 7: of who she was and how incredible the story would
- 5:58Speaker 7: have been.
- 6:00Speaker 4: It's a tough one.
- 6:00Speaker 5: Arman is also our tennis courus styled watching the Australian
- 6:04Speaker 5: open and the Alcaaz victory in the five hour semifinal.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Yeah, I just watched some tennis this mother, I love it,
- 6:12Speaker 2: the women's game.
- 6:13Speaker 6: To the grunts watching tennis tennis, billy, Yeah, a little
- 6:17Speaker 6: lab OSSI open obviously down under.
- 6:20Speaker 5: So if the sounds ever up on my phone and
- 6:23Speaker 5: my wife's like, what the hell are you watching, I'm
- 6:24Speaker 5: gonna win tennis, women's tennis.
- 6:26Speaker 2: It's women's tennis, honey. That's what all the gruntingers.
- 6:28Speaker 5: I didn't know to hit the ball that quickly.
- 6:32Speaker 4: There we go. That's good.
- 6:36Speaker 2: Was the best one. That's what old match.
- 6:38Speaker 5: Remember, as our tennis correspondent Alcarez is, he predisposed to
- 6:42Speaker 5: take part in a long, long, long match.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Alcoraz does not.
- 6:44Speaker 6: Do anything shorter easy in terms of tennis. It's always
- 6:47Speaker 6: a long match. It's always intense. It's always like a
- 6:50Speaker 6: five set epic, and Zverev pushed him to the limit.
- 6:53Speaker 2: This morning.
- 6:53Speaker 6: As I was waking up getting in, I watched a
- 6:55Speaker 6: little bit of the fifth set. So Carlos Alcoraz has one,
- 6:58Speaker 6: he beats Zverev.
- 6:59Speaker 2: And an advance of the finals.
- 7:01Speaker 6: And now we have center and Novak Djokovic going right,
- 7:03Speaker 6: now in Melbourne, so is Alcarez.
- 7:05Speaker 5: Should we just buckle up and be ready for him
- 7:07Speaker 5: being the next Joker Federer like for the next fifteen years,
- 7:10Speaker 5: he's gonna win all the time.
- 7:11Speaker 2: Well, him and Center, I think we'll be both doing that.
- 7:14Speaker 2: I think yeah. Now, for you know, Center was has had.
- 7:19Speaker 6: His problems though with Alcarez a little bit. But it's
- 7:21Speaker 6: it's been back and forth. It's not one dominating the others.
- 7:24Speaker 2: I can hear it now, Billy people just waking up.
- 7:27Speaker 7: No one cares about tennis. Did I say that? No,
- 7:30Speaker 7: you didn't know, which I appreciate. Sorry, No, okay, I'm sorry.
- 7:33Speaker 6: I'm looking for some sort of juicy angle or story
- 7:36Speaker 6: for it, you know, get you get people's up perian
- 7:38Speaker 6: interest goaling.
- 7:39Speaker 2: That's why I played the grunts for you a little bit.
- 7:41Speaker 6: But uh no, listen, Novak did take the second set
- 7:45Speaker 6: their side. They're tired right now and they're playing and
- 7:47Speaker 6: that's all you need to know about it.
- 7:49Speaker 5: I'll tell you this though.
- 7:50Speaker 7: When I was over at the Potawadic Sports Book yesterday
- 7:52Speaker 7: talking to our friends Austin and uh Eric and and
- 7:55Speaker 7: Justin behind the book, they were saying the Australian open
- 7:59Speaker 7: has gotten people to the book where they were actually
- 8:02Speaker 7: kind of surprised people like to they were surprised people
- 8:04Speaker 7: were going to come in the middle of the night though,
- 8:06Speaker 7: to watch set us open.
- 8:08Speaker 5: And Austin's like, I thought I was just gonna be
- 8:09Speaker 5: hanging out here by myself.
- 8:11Speaker 7: Sure, sure, I got to loosen it up to tie,
- 8:13Speaker 7: and then all of a sudden he's like, oh wait,
- 8:14Speaker 7: never mind, there's people on the couches waiting for.
- 8:16Speaker 6: I've told you and I told him. I've mentioned this
- 8:18Speaker 6: all the time. Tennis is the third most bet sport
- 8:20Speaker 6: in the world.
- 8:21Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 8:21Speaker 6: I heard that once. All right, so I don't have
- 8:23Speaker 6: official numbers, you're ready on the internet. But if you
- 8:27Speaker 6: like to do live betting, I mean, it's a great
- 8:29Speaker 6: sport to do it because the matches are four and
- 8:30Speaker 6: a half hours and a lot of time, so you know, true, yeah,
- 8:34Speaker 6: and you can do the point I think you can
- 8:35Speaker 6: do the point by point betting like they're doing baseball
- 8:38Speaker 6: with the pitch by pitch.
- 8:39Speaker 2: I've really tried, so I'm that sounds like it's right
- 8:42Speaker 2: for it is it is.
- 8:45Speaker 7: Emmanuel classe is just sitting there like the spice all
- 8:48Speaker 7: one okay.
- 8:49Speaker 6: Initially, tennyas has been the easiest sport too, Crow because
- 8:51Speaker 6: it's like one individual bad actor that's ranked two hundred
- 8:54Speaker 6: ninety third on the Chinese Open or something can like
- 8:56Speaker 6: throw a match or retire early.
- 8:58Speaker 2: That happens a lot.
- 8:58Speaker 7: Well, there was a are some rumblings of some track
- 9:02Speaker 7: and field stars over the last couple of days that
- 9:05Speaker 7: were flagged for betting on teammates, and drew that that's
- 9:09Speaker 7: the one where you're like, wait a second, if all
- 9:11Speaker 7: of a sudden you're sitting here knowing, like Pat Murphy
- 9:14Speaker 7: said about me in the Open, Oh jeez, this man's
- 9:17Speaker 7: been out all night. He's gonna be He's gonna be
- 9:19Speaker 7: the third leg of our four by Yeah, I might
- 9:22Speaker 7: be looking somewhere else. I might be trying to get
- 9:24Speaker 7: myself in edge or an angle somewhere else. Now, somebody said,
- 9:27Speaker 7: who cares about tennis? Well, John, it cares about something else.
- 9:30Speaker 7: It's even more important, he said, Billy Royal rumble predictions. Yeah,
- 9:34Speaker 7: and the easy prediction is brock Lesnar's in it.
- 9:37Speaker 2: He's gonna win.
- 9:38Speaker 5: I like brock Lesner's in anything.
- 9:40Speaker 7: I'm picking brock Lesnar, the guy with a sword tattoo
- 9:44Speaker 7: right through his chest. That that's gonna be an easy
- 9:47Speaker 7: pick for me, and I'll live with the results if
- 9:49Speaker 7: all of a sudden I'm wrong.
- 9:50Speaker 6: Now, Who's Who's Who's the guy that was grading the
- 9:53Speaker 6: cheese on ESPN. Yes, Steph Robins, I'm sitting hearing against him.
- 9:56Speaker 7: Well, I don't know that he's gonna be in it
- 9:58Speaker 7: because he is nursing himself back from a from an injury.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Oh, he's like, he's like a talking head.
- 10:02Speaker 7: Now, well, he was the champion, had to relinquish title
- 10:06Speaker 7: because he had to go have surgery, I believe on
- 10:08Speaker 7: a knee near a shoulder, shoulder. But his little his
- 10:11Speaker 7: little group adopted Logan Paul. They said, wait, you're out,
- 10:15Speaker 7: get out of here. We got Logan Paul now, So
- 10:17Speaker 7: who knows Seth Rollins might come in and mess with
- 10:20Speaker 7: Logan Paul and what they're calling the vision now, but
- 10:23Speaker 7: we'll see the vision will be blurry coming up tomorrow
- 10:26Speaker 7: afternoon down in Riad.
- 10:27Speaker 5: Interesting uh, interesting submission from Jenny and Appleton. Jenny, we
- 10:32Speaker 5: were referring to the Dan Schaeffer. The blogger Dan Schaeffer
- 10:35Speaker 5: said that Giannis is the most beloved athlete in Wisconsin history,
- 10:38Speaker 5: and that's his paradigm because he's a guy that's around forty,
- 10:43Speaker 5: you know, Bucks fan, and he thinks that he crested
- 10:46Speaker 5: like the Zenith was the Bucks winning that title and
- 10:48Speaker 5: breaking the fifty year drought and the whole thing with
- 10:50Speaker 5: the Dear Distic the twenty twenty one when Giannis took
- 10:52Speaker 5: us on that ride, carried the team.
- 10:54Speaker 2: He lives outside of the mural season every morning.
- 10:56Speaker 4: Probably.
- 10:57Speaker 5: Yeah, So then we're saying, get a point though, it
- 10:59Speaker 5: is jest the most beloved athlete in Wisconsin sports history,
- 11:02Speaker 5: and it's there's no answer to this, as we said,
- 11:04Speaker 5: but Janny pointed out, does Bob Ucker count as the
- 11:07Speaker 5: most loved athlete? I think he has to. If you
- 11:10Speaker 5: agree with that, then there is no contest. I'm a
- 11:12Speaker 5: baseball fan over everything. I missed him every day from
- 11:15Speaker 5: February through October. By the way, I'm seventy two. You
- 11:18Speaker 5: can figure out how to put my wake up alarm
- 11:20Speaker 5: on the schedule that Shanny and.
- 11:23Speaker 2: Appleton a great take. That's amazing his case, and then
- 11:28Speaker 2: got a zinger in on arm emotional damage damage.
- 11:35Speaker 6: I would say, you know, Bob Buker's the most beloved
- 11:37Speaker 6: figure athletes different.
- 11:40Speaker 2: But I said to billion, I think it's true. We've
- 11:41Speaker 2: talked about this. It was.
- 11:43Speaker 6: It's the saddest day of the history of the state
- 11:45Speaker 6: when Bob passed, And I think that's I don't think
- 11:47Speaker 6: that's crazy to say he's the most beloved figure. Obviously,
- 11:50Speaker 6: he was more than just an athlete. I mean, yeah,
- 11:52Speaker 6: he played baseball, but he was much much, much, much
- 11:55Speaker 6: much more, much.
- 11:56Speaker 2: Much more than a lot of people didn't even know
- 11:58Speaker 2: he was an athlete. They were I remember him from
- 12:00Speaker 2: catching the ball with Tuba in that picture, right.
- 12:03Speaker 5: Remember for whatever you wherever you caught onto the Yuker
- 12:06Speaker 5: experience though, I mean his plate.
- 12:08Speaker 2: You know, he transcended the field.
- 12:11Speaker 7: He was also so good at being self deprecating and
- 12:13Speaker 7: telling you about how bad of a player he was
- 12:15Speaker 7: that nobody would have wanted to admit that he was
- 12:18Speaker 7: a player. And then you actually look back and you're like, oh,
- 12:20Speaker 7: he was actually a pretty really good defensive catcher, somebody
- 12:23Speaker 7: that teams needed at that.
- 12:25Speaker 2: Particular point in Baseball World Series. Yeah.
- 12:28Speaker 7: Yeah, but he does feel like a special exemption, like, yeah,
- 12:31Speaker 7: this feels like you're trying to win the Bob Yucker
- 12:36Speaker 7: most famous Athlete in Wisconsin award?
- 12:39Speaker 1: Is that fair?
- 12:40Speaker 7: Like the awards named after Uke. You're trying to take
- 12:43Speaker 7: this thing home exactly.
- 12:44Speaker 4: Good luck. He's in his own category.
- 12:46Speaker 5: But you know Reggie Whitehead is, and it's it's all cyclical,
- 12:50Speaker 5: it's by era, it's you know, the entire arc of
- 12:53Speaker 5: the story. Like Reggie white for a time was that
- 12:57Speaker 5: guy absolutely absolutely beloved, unconditionally right, and then FARV was
- 13:03Speaker 5: for a time and took a heel turn. Rogers was
- 13:05Speaker 5: and then he went into the darkness retreat and all
- 13:07Speaker 5: that and got a weird I'd give.
- 13:08Speaker 7: Another one in that run would be, uh, what about
- 13:12Speaker 7: Donald Driver, somebody, I mean all time production, all time
- 13:17Speaker 7: packer being there his entire career, having some opportunities to
- 13:21Speaker 7: go somewhere else after he was done playing with the Packers,
- 13:24Speaker 7: but there was just so much talent at the wide
- 13:26Speaker 7: receiver position. I think you somewhat and sometimes will forget
- 13:29Speaker 7: about it. But double D has all of the humanitarian
- 13:33Speaker 7: parts that would add into this. Somebody that still chooses
- 13:37Speaker 7: to be a part of the community, chooses to come
- 13:39Speaker 7: back at a number of different times, buys into the
- 13:42Speaker 7: community and puts his money where his mouth is into
- 13:44Speaker 7: the state of Wisconsin. So I think Driver would be
- 13:47Speaker 7: an interesting one. Again for a group of my life, he.
- 13:50Speaker 2: Was the dude.
- 13:52Speaker 5: You can compartmentalize this too. You can put Uker in
- 13:55Speaker 5: a special category. It's almost like a certain Hall of
- 13:58Speaker 5: Fame ballot that we found out about. You have your
- 14:00Speaker 5: founder's category because like Bud Selig, herb Cole college roommates,
- 14:05Speaker 5: they have to be on the Mount Rushmore if you will,
- 14:08Speaker 5: of the founders, right, and the guys who didn't play,
- 14:10Speaker 5: but and then Bob Harlan.
- 14:12Speaker 2: Bob Harlan would be there. Yeah, for sure.
- 14:15Speaker 5: Is it a different category for founders and execs than
- 14:19Speaker 5: gms because you got to put Ron Wolf on there.
- 14:22Speaker 5: Probably look at Ron Wolf. Now, look at the super Bowl.
- 14:24Speaker 5: You got his proteges are going at it, his son
- 14:27Speaker 5: Elliott and John Schneider, two of his proteges going at
- 14:30Speaker 5: it in the Super Bowl. Like, oh, there's your packers
- 14:32Speaker 5: angle to this, right, So he's in this mix of
- 14:36Speaker 5: off the field guys.
- 14:37Speaker 4: And as I've.
- 14:38Speaker 5: Been thinking about it, By the way, the sun did
- 14:39Speaker 5: rise in the east today.
- 14:41Speaker 2: It did.
- 14:42Speaker 5: Even though Bill Belichick's not going to make the Hall
- 14:44Speaker 5: of Fame for a while and the more I think
- 14:46Speaker 5: about this, and I've been hearing the explanations from people
- 14:48Speaker 5: who I thought he was going to get it, and
- 14:50Speaker 5: I voted for the three players, Right, how is that?
- 14:53Speaker 2: How is it.
- 14:54Speaker 5: That Bill Belichick is in the same voting block as
- 14:59Speaker 5: three guys who have been trying to get in the
- 15:01Speaker 5: Hall for decades and like might fall off into the
- 15:05Speaker 5: abyss and if they don't get it. I think the
- 15:07Speaker 5: senior coaches contributors have done that for a long time. No,
- 15:10Speaker 5: but it's like, first of all, like he's he shouldn't
- 15:12Speaker 5: be he shouldn't be Elsie Greenwood or Bill Belichick, Like
- 15:16Speaker 5: it shouldn't have to come to that, you should they
- 15:18Speaker 5: should have a different mechanism for coaches or the whole
- 15:21Speaker 5: there's the whole five year thing that makes it even dumber, right, yeah,
- 15:24Speaker 5: or went to one year. But I I get it.
- 15:27Speaker 7: I understand the mechanics, and I understand that there's reasons
- 15:30Speaker 7: why we can walk ourselves around why we made the.
- 15:32Speaker 4: Foot got you.
- 15:33Speaker 5: But it's a flawed system, though, So let's look at
- 15:35Speaker 5: the system.
- 15:36Speaker 7: But you're asked to work inside of the system, and
- 15:39Speaker 7: I think it's a flawed process inside of the system.
- 15:42Speaker 7: You can say the system's flawed, but you're at Your
- 15:44Speaker 7: job is to execute inside of the system, not take
- 15:49Speaker 7: my vote.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Tell everybody why.
- 15:50Speaker 7: I did what I didn't believe was right, because while
- 15:54Speaker 7: the system's bad, that to me, I don't understand.
- 15:56Speaker 5: Yeah, but again, like they're doing this math and it
- 15:58Speaker 5: is it's part of the thing. Is like, Okay, well,
- 16:00Speaker 5: and I've had this with the Hall of Fame thing.
- 16:02Speaker 5: I'm voting for this guy because I don't want him
- 16:04Speaker 5: to fall off the ballot and the other guy is
- 16:05Speaker 5: gonna get more than thee And that.
- 16:08Speaker 7: Started to do the gymnastic and drew the further and
- 16:11Speaker 7: further we come off of it, the more and more
- 16:13Speaker 7: this bothers me more than anything else.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Interesting. At some point, if.
- 16:16Speaker 7: You're that far falling off of the ballot, you might
- 16:20Speaker 7: not be a Hall of Famer. And I know, I
- 16:23Speaker 7: know that sounds really mean. I know that's terrible to say.
- 16:27Speaker 7: You might not be a Hall of Famer. Everybody else
- 16:29Speaker 7: on the Steel curtain might be Hall of famers, right,
- 16:32Speaker 7: I agree with the other great quarterbacks in the eighties
- 16:35Speaker 7: might be Hall of famers.
- 16:36Speaker 5: You might not be, But it's your ballot, and if
- 16:38Speaker 5: you are passionate that that person who's gonna get your
- 16:40Speaker 5: precious vote is a Hall of Famer? Why should you
- 16:43Speaker 5: see that just because the other people. But that's not
- 16:45Speaker 5: the answer that we're hearing.
- 16:47Speaker 7: It's not I don't believe Bill Belichick is better than
- 16:49Speaker 7: all of these other candidates. It's that I don't agree
- 16:52Speaker 7: with why they're making me choose between these.
- 16:54Speaker 2: So I'm gonna.
- 16:55Speaker 7: Protest this with my ballot to tell everybody who for
- 16:59Speaker 7: another guy too.
- 17:00Speaker 2: I mean, that's part of it.
- 17:02Speaker 5: This his favoritism.
- 17:03Speaker 2: No, I'm saying they're.
- 17:04Speaker 6: Doing favors to like the Todd Rinobitt, who was it.
- 17:07Speaker 6: I'm sorry, I'm blanking now the quarterback. If he's not
- 17:11Speaker 6: a Hall of Famer, he's not a Hall of Famer.
- 17:12Speaker 6: I don't know why I thought I'm saying that's the
- 17:14Speaker 6: favor It felt like the people that are arguing, well,
- 17:17Speaker 6: he was gonna get it anyway, but other guys at
- 17:19Speaker 6: the vote for these other guys to get them in.
- 17:21Speaker 5: Before Bill Belichick had been on the ballot with Jerry Kramer, Like,
- 17:27Speaker 5: I'm not I can't vote for Jerr Kramer because Bill
- 17:28Speaker 5: Belichick deserves it more. Or do you like Bill Belichick
- 17:31Speaker 5: is going to get in last You had three guys
- 17:36Speaker 5: right there. You could have voted for Bill Belichick, Jerry
- 17:38Speaker 5: Kramer in one other one. And again I get I
- 17:40Speaker 5: understand he's our guy. So people don't like this.
- 17:43Speaker 7: If you're not on the list for that long and
- 17:45Speaker 7: you're not a Hall of Famer for that long, maybe
- 17:48Speaker 7: there's a reason why people voted to know for so long.
- 17:50Speaker 5: And I know we don't like hearing that.
- 17:52Speaker 7: Maybe flood but that's yeah, I think more more times
- 17:56Speaker 7: than not, you're not a Hall of Famer.
- 17:58Speaker 4: Do what you can't well.
- 17:59Speaker 2: I mean, it took Jerry Kramer way too long to
- 18:01Speaker 2: get in, way too But these are the debates.
- 18:04Speaker 5: And that's like if you're if you grew up watching
- 18:06Speaker 5: the Steel Curtain, you're like, hot el C.
- 18:08Speaker 2: Greenwood is the Jerry Kramer of the Pittsburgh Defense. How's
- 18:11Speaker 2: he not in? Already? All those other guys are in.
- 18:13Speaker 7: People were the other guys better than were? Those were
- 18:16Speaker 7: those guys the reason why they were the Steel Curtain?
- 18:18Speaker 7: And Elsie Greenwood was the fourth guy on that group.
- 18:20Speaker 5: Not really, No, I mean, I mean that's good, you know,
- 18:23Speaker 5: It's that's like saying, well it is Jerry Kramer not
- 18:25Speaker 5: a Hall of Famer because he took him so long.
- 18:27Speaker 2: Like, no, he was that great.
- 18:28Speaker 7: But if you if you can't, if you can't vote
- 18:31Speaker 7: yes for thirty five times, why on the thirty sixth
- 18:35Speaker 7: time is it a yes?
- 18:36Speaker 5: But what if you're what if you're on the ballot
- 18:38Speaker 5: and the committee and you vote for him every time?
- 18:40Speaker 2: Like, don't you stay right?
- 18:41Speaker 8: Right?
- 18:42Speaker 2: But that's not what That's not what we're hearing.
- 18:44Speaker 5: That's not what that's not what this is.
- 18:46Speaker 7: These are different guys every single year that get brought
- 18:48Speaker 7: up for the Senior Committee because these guys might not
- 18:51Speaker 7: be on the ballot again next year. So it wasn't
- 18:53Speaker 7: I'd been voting for this guy for fifteen years.
- 18:56Speaker 2: I'm going to continue to now he's now it's his
- 18:58Speaker 2: last chance, and I'm gonna continue to vote for him.
- 19:00Speaker 2: Like that's you know, that's stay in consistent.
- 19:03Speaker 7: Yeah, this, this to me just sounds like I'm yeah,
- 19:06Speaker 7: I I totally disagree. And the more and more the
- 19:08Speaker 7: further and further we get away from it, the more
- 19:11Speaker 7: and more it's really nice of us to do nice
- 19:13Speaker 7: things for people, but if is.
- 19:15Speaker 2: It just speaks to the flaw and the process make it.
- 19:18Speaker 4: Yes, No, I just.
- 19:19Speaker 2: Enjoyed that Billy's gatekeeping.
- 19:21Speaker 7: What is our job to is our job to use
- 19:23Speaker 7: our ballot to bitch about the system?
- 19:26Speaker 2: No, No, it's to vote for who's in the Hall
- 19:28Speaker 2: of Fame, to vote for who you think should be
- 19:30Speaker 2: in the Hall of fame.
- 19:31Speaker 7: And and the only explanation again, and this is where
- 19:34Speaker 7: I disagree with the point. But I respect the guy
- 19:37Speaker 7: in Kansas City so much for at least putting his
- 19:39Speaker 7: name on this is why I did it.
- 19:41Speaker 5: I totally disagree with it.
- 19:43Speaker 7: But I appreciate you admitting and saying this is why
- 19:46Speaker 7: I did it.
- 19:48Speaker 5: I might be wrong, and I think he even admitted.
- 19:50Speaker 7: And they're like, given it, given the opportunity to do
- 19:52Speaker 7: it over, I would have done it differently.
- 19:55Speaker 5: But this is the way it went. I just this
- 19:58Speaker 5: is your.
- 19:59Speaker 7: Job is not too you manipulate or make a damnation
- 20:02Speaker 7: about the system.
- 20:03Speaker 5: It's the vote three of those five, your guy.
- 20:05Speaker 6: This is why do we never We wouldn't be happy
- 20:07Speaker 6: hearing an explanation from me.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Exactly why, because it's just making you. We should never
- 20:13Speaker 2: hear from these guys.
- 20:16Speaker 5: Watching it because it is so weak. This is so
- 20:18Speaker 5: much more of a travesty though, and it's kind of
- 20:21Speaker 5: an embarrassment than the one guy that didn't vote for
- 20:24Speaker 5: Jeter for each way more, it's like way bigger if
- 20:29Speaker 5: we had if we had an election and we pulled
- 20:32Speaker 5: four hundred and thirty five people, we'd get thirty five
- 20:34Speaker 5: people who say today is not Friday, Like it's just
- 20:37Speaker 5: how it.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Is, Maggie.
- 20:38Speaker 7: So LAROI shouldn't have been in Hall of Famer. No,
- 20:40Speaker 7: LaRoy didn't go to the Senior Committee. Leroy was on
- 20:42Speaker 7: the ballot for I think he was six years and
- 20:45Speaker 7: continue to elevate each time.
- 20:47Speaker 5: That's a part of it.
- 20:48Speaker 7: And again, if the system is just yes or no,
- 20:51Speaker 7: then the whole thing gets gets thrown out. But if
- 20:54Speaker 7: it's the these are the five guys, out of these three,
- 20:57Speaker 7: you need to pick three of these five. One of
- 20:59Speaker 7: that is the greatest coach of all time, one of
- 21:02Speaker 7: them is a one time MVP. To me, that answer
- 21:04Speaker 7: is pretty I would Bill obviously. And that's a situation.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Yeah, you think you would have, but you don't know.
- 21:11Speaker 6: But everyone's gonna have a different vote exactly, and we
- 21:14Speaker 6: won't know because these guys won't get an opportunity.
- 21:17Speaker 5: It's very much like the other discussion that's spinning today
- 21:19Speaker 5: is like, is Yannis the most beloved athlete of all time?
- 21:22Speaker 2: Well, if you think he is, then he is.
- 21:24Speaker 4: But is he?
- 21:25Speaker 2: See?
- 21:26Speaker 7: But this one, everyone gets an opinion, the one that
- 21:28Speaker 7: we're talking about.
- 21:29Speaker 2: Again, only fifty.
- 21:33Speaker 5: People's opinion matters, only fifty good above.
- 21:36Speaker 2: But it's the same thing. Everybody's got an.
- 21:38Speaker 7: Opinion, but they are taking their own opinion as to
- 21:40Speaker 7: what their job is. You're away from what they that
- 21:43Speaker 7: because as there are if we if you had to
- 21:46Speaker 7: pick three of the most beloved athletes, a lot of
- 21:48Speaker 7: people are leaving Gianis off their ballet.
- 21:50Speaker 6: That's true, and that's silly to me some people because
- 21:53Speaker 6: they say because they say, I don't care about basketball.
- 21:55Speaker 5: There you good?
- 21:56Speaker 2: Right? Yeah, but that's but but that that is totally different.
- 21:59Speaker 2: This is one singular deal. We're just comparing comparison. It
- 22:03Speaker 2: is different, Yes, it's different, but it's very it is different,
- 22:06Speaker 2: but equivalent everything.
- 22:09Speaker 5: Yeah, everybody's got their own set of you know, Bill
- 22:12Speaker 5: Belichick will get his gold jacket now that Robert Kraft,
- 22:16Speaker 5: will they go in with Robert Kraft.
- 22:18Speaker 7: That'll be interesting to see, hilarious. Yes, Mike Holmgren is
- 22:22Speaker 7: still waiting.
- 22:23Speaker 5: That's and if it was Bill Belichick or Mike Holmgren
- 22:25Speaker 5: and Homegren was going to go back into the abyss,
- 22:27Speaker 5: I'd vote for Homegrin before Belichick, and you would be.
- 22:29Speaker 2: Wrong, and that would be wrong. But of them the
- 22:32Speaker 2: better Hall of Famer.
- 22:33Speaker 5: But again, like if it's Homegren's like, if Homeger doesn't
- 22:36Speaker 5: get in right now, he's never going in.
- 22:38Speaker 2: I'm voting for Homer because he deserves it. Belichick will
- 22:40Speaker 2: get in eventually, obviously, But that's not the job. Is wrong?
- 22:44Speaker 5: Is that the job? I think the job is to
- 22:47Speaker 5: vote the way you want to vote, right, that's the job.
- 22:49Speaker 2: That's the thing.
- 22:49Speaker 7: Your job is to select who is going who should
- 22:52Speaker 7: go to the Hall of Fame from this one.
- 22:53Speaker 5: But it's by your standards. You're you're the arbiter. Like
- 22:57Speaker 5: judges make decisions and cases, is it right or wrong?
- 22:59Speaker 5: Like they make the decision, they make the rules.
- 23:01Speaker 2: You have to do it.
- 23:03Speaker 7: Why you should have to explain it? This is why
- 23:06Speaker 7: it's that easy? Please explain you could you could be
- 23:10Speaker 7: you don't think it's fair. You don't want people to
- 23:12Speaker 7: be mad at people because they don't agree with what
- 23:15Speaker 7: their opinion.
- 23:15Speaker 2: It's not true. You could.
- 23:17Speaker 6: You could, it's like the Supreme Court. You could require
- 23:19Speaker 6: that they give an explaination. What's the term. I don't
- 23:22Speaker 6: know what the term is where they give a writing
- 23:24Speaker 6: about it.
- 23:25Speaker 2: But it won't make it won't make you happier to hear.
- 23:28Speaker 6: If your family gets murdered and you go to the
- 23:30Speaker 6: stand and you ask the murderer, I need to know
- 23:32Speaker 6: why you did it, there's no answer that will make
- 23:33Speaker 6: you happier.
- 23:34Speaker 2: You can't make sense of the senseless if you don't
- 23:36Speaker 2: agree with what.
- 23:37Speaker 7: You have to be able to validate your statement right,
- 23:40Speaker 7: But it won't.
- 23:40Speaker 2: My point is it won't won't make people feel better
- 23:43Speaker 2: or make a difference. Then why does any of it matter?
- 23:45Speaker 7: If you what you're saying something just because I won't
- 23:47Speaker 7: because you won't agree with what I'm saying, it doesn't matter.
- 23:49Speaker 2: I'm not going to do the work for it. I'm saying.
- 23:51Speaker 2: People have the right to vote. They're gonna vote what
- 23:53Speaker 2: they want.
- 23:53Speaker 6: You can require an explanation, but it's not gonna make
- 23:56Speaker 6: It's not gonna be like explain it. I agree with
- 23:59Speaker 6: what he says. It's gonna make you. It won't make
- 24:02Speaker 6: you feel better. That's you telling me how I will
- 24:05Speaker 6: feel when somebody you said you're more mad today.
- 24:09Speaker 7: But again, respect so much more as to that individual
- 24:12Speaker 7: for why he did. Okay, I mean there's a difference
- 24:15Speaker 7: between disagreeing and respecting. I don't respect the other nine
- 24:19Speaker 7: or ten or eleven that did not vote for Belichick
- 24:22Speaker 7: because they have not said why.
- 24:24Speaker 2: And here's the well, respect.
- 24:25Speaker 7: Everybody that will, even though I can disagree with their state.
- 24:28Speaker 5: The guy in Kansas City who you respect, broke protocol.
- 24:31Speaker 2: Because you're not supposed to talk about this until after.
- 24:34Speaker 5: You're supposed to appreciate that he did. You're supposed to
- 24:36Speaker 5: be a news blackout. And we live in in weird times.
- 24:38Speaker 5: Army just had another Hallmark armanism. Though you can't make
- 24:41Speaker 5: sense of the senseless.
- 24:42Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well, I don't let you slip by, and
- 24:45Speaker 2: I don't like to come back. Dolph is gonna be here.
- 24:47Speaker 5: We are going to celebrate halftime, make our adjustments. Brook
- 24:51Speaker 5: Brighton's gonna join us after Dolph's slide. That's gonna be fun,
- 24:53Speaker 5: and we'll talk a little. Whether we got some snow coming?
- 24:55Speaker 5: How why has it been so flipping.
- 24:57Speaker 1: COMMI well, a lot.
- 25:00Speaker 5: Of welcome in the country station down the hall to
- 25:04Speaker 5: our party training Pulley arm.
- 25:06Speaker 2: And hello Dolf. What's up Drew?
- 25:08Speaker 5: You know we're just chopping it up on a Friday here.
- 25:10Speaker 4: When you mentioned halftime, does it really sink into your
- 25:13Speaker 4: brain that it's six thirty in the morning and it's
- 25:15Speaker 4: your show's Yes.
- 25:18Speaker 5: Starting to resonate a little bit more, I think, slowly,
- 25:20Speaker 5: but surely you are are you are uncrustable and orange slices.
- 25:24Speaker 2: We get ready for the back end of the show.
- 25:26Speaker 5: I love it, and then slide down the back of
- 25:28Speaker 5: the Dinosaur at eight am.
- 25:29Speaker 7: Grab a little one of those little twelve ounce gatorades,
- 25:32Speaker 7: and then you're you're off and running.
- 25:33Speaker 4: Yeah, good to go, Absolutely awesome.
- 25:35Speaker 2: What's happening with you?
- 25:35Speaker 5: We were just we've been talking today about this Blogger
- 25:38Speaker 5: Dan Schaeffer put into the universe that Giannis is the
- 25:40Speaker 5: most beloved athlete in Wisconsin sports history, and it's like, well,
- 25:44Speaker 5: that's there's no right answer to that.
- 25:46Speaker 2: It's what you think, but it's fired up a debate.
- 25:49Speaker 4: I would think if you did a pull, it might
- 25:51Speaker 4: be close, but I'm at least the people that are
- 25:54Speaker 4: live today would probably pick somebody like Brett Farber or
- 25:56Speaker 4: maybe Aaron Rodgers. I don't know, because they were white. Yeah,
- 25:59Speaker 4: you know, and all three of those guys people have
- 26:03Speaker 4: opinions about them, not necessarily on the football field, So
- 26:06Speaker 4: maybe it is Giannis now that I hear that.
- 26:08Speaker 5: Well, And then someone came in over the top and
- 26:10Speaker 5: it was like, well, Bob Buker was an athlete, and
- 26:12Speaker 5: Bob Bucker's most beloved figure in Wisconsin history.
- 26:15Speaker 4: That's true. People forget that.
- 26:17Speaker 5: Becomes a tough one to be able to top. So
- 26:19Speaker 5: he's but he's in a secondary category. Like for years,
- 26:22Speaker 5: we would have discussions and we would talk about, like, Okay,
- 26:24Speaker 5: who's your favorite Packers player at the moment, and you
- 26:27Speaker 5: can't say Far and you can't say rod like we'd
- 26:29Speaker 5: have to have that caveat because that was the default, right, So, yeah,
- 26:32Speaker 5: who's your favorite player other than.
- 26:34Speaker 4: You know, yeah, well right now, it's probably Micah Parsons.
- 26:37Speaker 7: I was gonna say, now it's Michah Parsons. You have
- 26:38Speaker 7: to do the potential caveat for in the middle there.
- 26:42Speaker 5: So Jannis was his homegrown We got to see him
- 26:45Speaker 5: grow up. That story arc it's been a Disney movie.
- 26:48Speaker 5: It's been a it's it's it's a movie, it's.
- 26:50Speaker 4: Cinematic, it's and everything you've heard about the guy, he's
- 26:54Speaker 4: super nice. I've never met Giannis. Shannon, my partner on
- 26:58Speaker 4: FM one to six, did a freaking entire three hour
- 27:00Speaker 4: remote with him at Pick and Save early in his career.
- 27:02Speaker 4: She got to hang with him for three hours. My
- 27:05Speaker 4: wife is an educator. For years she worked summers at
- 27:08Speaker 4: the Target in Bayview. Jiannis would come in chat with everybody,
- 27:12Speaker 4: biased things. This is when he was living down in
- 27:13Speaker 4: Saint Francis and the buck Strain at the Cousins Center.
- 27:17Speaker 4: One of my son's friend worked at the Culvers on
- 27:19Speaker 4: six and late in Milwaukee. Giannis would come through the
- 27:21Speaker 4: drive through and again, chatting everybody up and everything you
- 27:23Speaker 4: heard about the duty is just unbelievable. So okay, you
- 27:26Speaker 4: talked me into it. I'll vote for Gianni's is my
- 27:28Speaker 4: favorite afterbe here in Wisconsin.
- 27:29Speaker 5: Most beloved and then again, it's like it's subjective. There
- 27:32Speaker 5: is no right answer or wrong answer. Who did you
- 27:34Speaker 5: love the most?
- 27:35Speaker 7: Would Counts have had a chance if the Cubs thing
- 27:37Speaker 7: wouldn't have happened a couple of years ago?
- 27:39Speaker 2: Maybe? Yeah, maybe in the discussion.
- 27:41Speaker 7: Right like, even though his best moment says a player,
- 27:44Speaker 7: were not with the Brewers, I think Wisconsin people still
- 27:47Speaker 7: like adopted. Well, that was one of our guys winning titles,
- 27:50Speaker 7: and he helped bring well a little bit of the
- 27:52Speaker 7: winning edge to those first teams that ended up getting
- 27:54Speaker 7: into the dance.
- 27:55Speaker 4: And you think about did you ever see that? Was
- 27:56Speaker 4: it a thirty for thirty the Chicken runs at midnight? Yes?
- 27:59Speaker 5: Yeah, Marlins story, he was huge in that story.
- 28:03Speaker 4: The two thousand and one Diamondbacks, the Marlins thing, he
- 28:06Speaker 4: was just right place, right time.
- 28:08Speaker 5: He was a scrub on a team of guys that
- 28:10Speaker 5: were making jillions. Like he was driving a like a
- 28:12Speaker 5: Toyota Tercell in a parking lot of Bentley's right, he
- 28:16Speaker 5: really was. He was a rookie to get a new car.
- 28:19Speaker 2: He was a rookie, yeah, absolutely.
- 28:21Speaker 5: And then but the Diamondbacks thing, he was the part
- 28:23Speaker 5: of the fabric of that team. Now not as big
- 28:25Speaker 5: as star as Randy Johnson and Kirk Chilling, Luis Gondallas,
- 28:28Speaker 5: but he was in the mix and he was very
- 28:30Speaker 5: popular on that team. And for years I would tease
- 28:33Speaker 5: Creig like he could walk around Whitefish Bay and no
- 28:34Speaker 5: one bugs him, and he goes to a Starbucks in
- 28:37Speaker 5: Scottsdale and he's gonna swarmed.
- 28:38Speaker 2: Yeah, he was bigger there than here. But you're right, Billy.
- 28:41Speaker 5: Had he not left, and if he had somehow magically
- 28:44Speaker 5: gotten the Brewers to a World Series, like if.
- 28:46Speaker 2: They win in twenty eighteen, if they win Game seven,
- 28:49Speaker 2: totally different, beast, completely different. Yeah, big time.
- 28:52Speaker 4: Braun would have been in the conversation too.
- 28:54Speaker 5: That's what we were saying is for people of that generation,
- 28:57Speaker 5: Braun would have been in the conversation if.
- 28:58Speaker 2: Not for his little missteps.
- 29:00Speaker 7: Yeah, and even like because he left there, there was
- 29:03Speaker 7: always going to be a hang up for it. But
- 29:04Speaker 7: I think if Prince would have been able to continue
- 29:07Speaker 7: to play there, there would have been still the more
- 29:10Speaker 7: fondness of it. But like how quickly his career ended
- 29:13Speaker 7: up ending at the after he left Milwaukee made it
- 29:16Speaker 7: difficult to really still remember how great he was with
- 29:19Speaker 7: the Bruis. He was so dominant and so awesome. For
- 29:22Speaker 7: pair shaped youths like myself, there was nobody else you
- 29:26Speaker 7: wanted to be more like than Princefielder, just putting that
- 29:28Speaker 7: bat on the shoulder, swinging harder than anyone.
- 29:30Speaker 2: I know Derby, Yeah it.
- 29:33Speaker 6: Was Prince of Pop. But it is about the guy
- 29:36Speaker 6: you are and how you connect. But it's also about
- 29:37Speaker 6: then what you accomplished. It's a combination. Well and yeah,
- 29:40Speaker 6: that's ais to the trophy. Except for the farm and
- 29:43Speaker 6: Rogers situation. None of these other guys actually won the
- 29:45Speaker 6: World championship except for Jianna's great point.
- 29:47Speaker 4: And you think about Prince, you know, his kids, you know,
- 29:49Speaker 4: with the little uniforms on running around, and absolutely that
- 29:52Speaker 4: was so much. But you know, you just don't hear
- 29:55Speaker 4: much bad about Giannis. I mean going to was it
- 29:57Speaker 4: Chick fil a and Plwaukee or wherever?
- 29:59Speaker 2: You Yes, the famous brook Brookfield one fifty.
- 30:05Speaker 7: I do believe the day that he ends up leaving,
- 30:08Speaker 7: we are going to have to go get go, get
- 30:09Speaker 7: some chicken. Minis not only conor of jannest but just
- 30:12Speaker 7: because they're so dam they're really good.
- 30:14Speaker 5: So good man, Oh my god.
- 30:16Speaker 6: There's really nothing to not like about Yanna's and then
- 30:19Speaker 6: and then and the persistence of this story has annoyed people,
- 30:22Speaker 6: and a lot of it's because of the media machine,
- 30:25Speaker 6: and that kind of makes me resent it all because
- 30:27Speaker 6: I think they feel a certainly about Yianni's just because
- 30:29Speaker 6: the story keeps popping up, and eventually, yes, he probably
- 30:31Speaker 6: will leave, but this story has been going for it's.
- 30:33Speaker 5: Been going so long that the people are starting to
- 30:36Speaker 5: get mad at Yanni's right. Not declaring I want out
- 30:38Speaker 5: or just say with your man.
- 30:40Speaker 2: I'm out.
- 30:40Speaker 5: He's been saying it like I want to be in,
- 30:42Speaker 5: but I want to compete. It's like, well, we're not
- 30:43Speaker 5: competing anytime in the near future. If he didn't leave,
- 30:47Speaker 5: he'd be the exception of the rule.
- 30:48Speaker 4: Is there anybody in modern day NBA that has played
- 30:52Speaker 4: with the same team for their entego?
- 30:54Speaker 7: All the superstars, Kirk and Staff are the only ones
- 30:56Speaker 7: you can really think of are the ones. And even
- 30:59Speaker 7: Kobe said, uh, put me, He's the only guy I
- 31:04Speaker 7: think that actually demanded a trade. It didn't happen, and
- 31:07Speaker 7: then he finished his career happily with the team.
- 31:09Speaker 4: That's true.
- 31:10Speaker 5: Uh, And so yeah, the thing is, now you're honest.
- 31:12Speaker 5: At some point in some people's eyes, he's already becoming
- 31:14Speaker 5: the bad guy because it's starting to spin of like
- 31:16Speaker 5: you're mad at the situation.
- 31:17Speaker 2: Now I'm gonna be mad at him.
- 31:18Speaker 7: It's just the most passive aggressive trade request of all time.
- 31:23Speaker 7: It's in that conversation. But I understand why he's doing
- 31:26Speaker 7: staying in it for the kids right now. Yes, they're
- 31:28Speaker 7: staying in it for the kids. No one wants to
- 31:30Speaker 7: call a lawyer and serve papers.
- 31:32Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, it gets ugly and it's inconvenient,
- 31:34Speaker 4: but you know, I get it to me. I don't
- 31:36Speaker 4: get angry. I just kind of get sad about the
- 31:38Speaker 4: whole righty, that's default settings to be sad.
- 31:41Speaker 7: You can be sad and then all of a sudden
- 31:43Speaker 7: you quickly have that frown turned upside down when you
- 31:45Speaker 7: board that jet and go into some sunny weather last weekend.
- 31:49Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, going to the Dominican Republic. We've we've gone
- 31:52Speaker 4: to the d R a lot on this Boots on
- 31:53Speaker 4: the Beach trip with Asdrew likes to say, the country
- 31:56Speaker 4: station down the hall. We take country music artists with
- 31:58Speaker 4: us every year, you up and comers that you may
- 32:01Speaker 4: not know. But over the years we had Luke Bryan
- 32:03Speaker 4: on that trip. Luke Bryan does it an event now
- 32:06Speaker 4: for four days in Cancun called Crash My Plaia, a
- 32:10Speaker 4: playoff is crash my Party song and it's turned into
- 32:13Speaker 4: almost like a country thunder across or stock Yeah, country music.
- 32:18Speaker 4: And he'll tell you he got that idea by going
- 32:21Speaker 4: on our trip back in two thousand and eight watch
- 32:25Speaker 4: and he was. He was coming across the surf in
- 32:28Speaker 4: his fricking ATV and he played two nights for us.
- 32:31Speaker 5: And so you guys get royalties, we should and your
- 32:34Speaker 5: chance to win Luke Bryan Tickets is coming up after
- 32:36Speaker 5: seven track on the Huddle, Safe Travels. We'll miss you
- 32:40Speaker 5: next week because we are a halftime corresponding to find
- 32:42Speaker 5: somebody else to check it in.
- 32:43Speaker 7: Our whole clock is going to be thrown off like
- 32:45Speaker 7: we miss our alarm every day.
- 32:47Speaker 4: If you need me to check in from the dr,
- 32:48Speaker 4: just say the word that's dangerous.
- 32:50Speaker 2: All right, we're calling. Well, we will send you the link.
- 32:54Speaker 3: Let me come back.
- 32:55Speaker 5: Our palt Brook Brighton is going to join us from
- 32:57Speaker 5: Spectrum News One, Tuck Weather, Hoops, just life in general.
- 33:00Speaker 7: Her dominating Arman. Sorry, and on the block of the
- 33:02Speaker 7: Bruce City Battle. I'm ex of that, but that's next.
- 33:05Speaker 7: It's the Huddle.
- 33:06Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin Special guests in our a lounge
- 33:09Speaker 5: right now, come on now, it gets a lot brighter,
- 33:11Speaker 5: a lot warmer, a lot happier.
- 33:12Speaker 7: Brooke Brighton of Spectrum News One joins us on the huddle, Brook,
- 33:16Speaker 7: huddle up.
- 33:17Speaker 5: Helmet's not a chair. Welcome in, good morning.
- 33:20Speaker 8: How are you guys doing.
- 33:21Speaker 2: We're not after it on Friday. It's the end of
- 33:23Speaker 2: the week.
- 33:23Speaker 5: We're looking forward to it and we're going to be
- 33:25Speaker 5: driving home after eight o'clock into lake effects snow.
- 33:27Speaker 2: Can you tell us what we're looking at here?
- 33:30Speaker 9: Yeah, we are going to be seeing just a little
- 33:32Speaker 9: bit of snow where areas, mainly along the lake front.
- 33:35Speaker 9: Minor accumulation around an inch or two, so there could
- 33:38Speaker 9: be a few slick spots, nothing too much, concer.
- 33:42Speaker 2: Hopefully that's good.
- 33:43Speaker 7: Now. How happy are you to actually utilize two digits
- 33:47Speaker 7: on the high part of the temperature for all of
- 33:49Speaker 7: your models next week?
- 33:51Speaker 2: Like, that's got to be a crazy difference.
- 33:54Speaker 8: Just talking about this weekend high's in the twenties.
- 33:56Speaker 9: I'm like, I'm going to spend all day outdoors and
- 34:00Speaker 9: higher weekend.
- 34:00Speaker 2: Oh it's tropical.
- 34:02Speaker 9: Thinking back to last Friday, I mean Milwaukee windshill of
- 34:06Speaker 9: forty two below zero.
- 34:08Speaker 6: That's crazy, it's crazy, And I always say we have
- 34:11Speaker 6: the benefit of perspective in these cold as days. So
- 34:14Speaker 6: even though twenty and thirty is cold to us, it
- 34:16Speaker 6: feels tropical. And we've had to deal with what we
- 34:18Speaker 6: dealt with last week. So there you go, guys, we're lucky.
- 34:21Speaker 6: We're lucky to have to deal with this now. I
- 34:23Speaker 6: have a question, Brooke, And this is like a big
- 34:26Speaker 6: debate in my family. It's like, maybe this is a
- 34:28Speaker 6: better question for like a car mechanic, but it's should
- 34:31Speaker 6: I get my car washed when it's under thirty two degrees?
- 34:33Speaker 6: And I don't know if you can answer that or not.
- 34:35Speaker 6: I hope people probably come at you all kinds of
- 34:37Speaker 6: crazy questions like that, So is it too cold to
- 34:40Speaker 6: get your car washed?
- 34:40Speaker 2: Because everyone's like, when can I wash the salt off?
- 34:44Speaker 8: No?
- 34:44Speaker 9: I totally get that in my car too. I'm just
- 34:46Speaker 9: itching to get a car wash. I'm like, wait until
- 34:49Speaker 9: it gets warmer. It's better to side on the casious
- 34:53Speaker 9: side and just wait till it gets a little bit warmer.
- 34:56Speaker 8: You could wait. It'll be fine.
- 34:58Speaker 5: No one's judging him, right, Like, it's okay that you
- 35:00Speaker 5: got a little bit of salt on the rims.
- 35:02Speaker 2: It's all good.
- 35:03Speaker 8: Everyone's in the same boat, you're going to be fine.
- 35:06Speaker 5: But if you go to one of the full service places,
- 35:07Speaker 5: like there is not far from the megaplex next to
- 35:09Speaker 5: the KFC where they kind of dry the gaskets and
- 35:12Speaker 5: they dry the inside of the doors and stuff.
- 35:15Speaker 2: You kind of have to do that.
- 35:17Speaker 5: But what if I get my car wash in the
- 35:19Speaker 5: car wash place is like three minutes from my house,
- 35:21Speaker 5: and then I go to my heated underground garage.
- 35:23Speaker 2: I should be okay, right, that's what I thought, But
- 35:25Speaker 2: you have to get there quick exactly.
- 35:27Speaker 5: It's not the other half last Brook. It's a nice deal, yes,
- 35:30Speaker 5: all right.
- 35:31Speaker 8: Yeah, I'd say for most people.
- 35:32Speaker 2: Yeah, okay.
- 35:33Speaker 5: The other question is what are your favorite dumb people weatherstones?
- 35:37Speaker 5: Because when it got so cold, I saw people taking
- 35:39Speaker 5: the boiling water outside and throwing it up in the air.
- 35:41Speaker 2: What are your favorite dumb things stupid weather tricks.
- 35:44Speaker 4: That people do.
- 35:45Speaker 9: I think one of my favorite ones that's a little
- 35:47Speaker 9: bit more unique is when you take a bowl of
- 35:50Speaker 9: pasta and put the fork up and then the pasta
- 35:54Speaker 9: freezes so it looks like the fork is levitating.
- 35:56Speaker 6: Yeah, but that's a lot of Marilla pasta I'm wasting.
- 35:58Speaker 6: I mean, it's like a dollar twenty five, you could
- 36:01Speaker 6: still eat it. I guess you're right, it's frozen. I
- 36:05Speaker 6: guess you're right, thinking.
- 36:07Speaker 5: Microwave, I think it'll be okay. Our buddy Adam Pavlock,
- 36:10Speaker 5: who's the proprietor of Egg and Flower and Bay View
- 36:12Speaker 5: and the pasta King of Milwaukee, kind of he should
- 36:15Speaker 5: do some of that for his ads and stuff. He
- 36:17Speaker 5: should do that for some some socials.
- 36:19Speaker 8: That's great idea. Actually, yeah, so then.
- 36:22Speaker 2: We need it to be a deep freeste for a
- 36:23Speaker 2: little longer so we can get that off the ground.
- 36:24Speaker 5: We can get more content in here. Yeah, a little
- 36:26Speaker 5: bit more content.
- 36:27Speaker 7: Yeah, it is crazy, Brooke, I gotta ask and listen.
- 36:30Speaker 7: You probably get a lot of questions. The car question
- 36:32Speaker 7: probably not the craziest. How much engagement do you get
- 36:36Speaker 7: on your like in the comments section? It's got to
- 36:39Speaker 7: be a difficult place for you to go, especially when
- 36:41Speaker 7: there's like snow or weather, because everyone's favorite thing is
- 36:44Speaker 7: to say, well this is just flat wrong. But generally speaking,
- 36:48Speaker 7: I feel like sometimes your comments are the nicest, happiest
- 36:50Speaker 7: place on earth, So it could be a little bit better.
- 36:53Speaker 2: From that turn, is.
- 36:54Speaker 7: It do you do you frequent in there at all,
- 36:56Speaker 7: you get into the comments, or you just let that
- 36:58Speaker 7: be and say, here's the four cast.
- 37:01Speaker 5: Don't be mad at me if it's not exactly right.
- 37:03Speaker 8: I think it's a healthy mix.
- 37:05Speaker 9: The notifications that I get for comments seem to be
- 37:08Speaker 9: more positive, like thanks for the forecast, thanks for keeping
- 37:11Speaker 9: us they thanks for the updates. But I do realize
- 37:15Speaker 9: when it's as brutally cold, no one's going to be
- 37:18Speaker 9: a fan of the forecast. I'm not even a fan
- 37:20Speaker 9: of the forecast.
- 37:21Speaker 8: I get it.
- 37:22Speaker 9: So, yeah, it's a hit or mystery, which no smile
- 37:26Speaker 9: and brush it off.
- 37:26Speaker 2: That's good. Yeah, and you got to and you do
- 37:28Speaker 2: a great job.
- 37:28Speaker 6: No, there's no war to shoot the messenger situation, and
- 37:31Speaker 6: there is going after like the meteorologist for like the
- 37:34Speaker 6: actual weather, like you know, she doesn't push his clouds
- 37:37Speaker 6: around up here.
- 37:38Speaker 5: I gotta give you the flip side of that, though,
- 37:39Speaker 5: because my buddy Dan Needles, who I did show with
- 37:41Speaker 5: three years, who got me into doing some television weekly,
- 37:44Speaker 5: he would have get so mad, like at Mark Baden
- 37:47Speaker 5: when it's seventy five degrees out in May or something.
- 37:49Speaker 5: People are thanks for the nice weather, Mark, and Needles
- 37:51Speaker 5: is like, no, one thanks me when the Packers win
- 37:53Speaker 5: a game. He had nothing to do with it, exactly.
- 37:57Speaker 9: Well, I think meteorologists, probably ninety for some of the
- 38:00Speaker 9: time make fun of for getting the forecast wrong, so
- 38:03Speaker 9: that ten percent I'm glad to give a good forecast.
- 38:06Speaker 7: Well, do you ever retweet it when it's right to
- 38:08Speaker 7: be like, hey, just so you guys know, I got
- 38:09Speaker 7: one here, receipts, I got one here.
- 38:11Speaker 8: Well, and here's the thing.
- 38:13Speaker 9: We are correct when we give a bad you know,
- 38:16Speaker 9: an active forecast, a cold forecast, so that we're doing
- 38:20Speaker 9: a great job.
- 38:20Speaker 8: It's just maybe not the news that everyone wants to hear.
- 38:24Speaker 5: You guys do take a lot of unnecessary grief from
- 38:26Speaker 5: the weather and stuff like that. And you know, Dan
- 38:29Speaker 5: was always like, why does weather get so much time?
- 38:31Speaker 5: And I only have two minutes? What's the dal Like
- 38:32Speaker 5: any bitching moment there is. It's a little bit like
- 38:35Speaker 5: a baseball team. Like you guys are kind of the
- 38:37Speaker 5: relief pitchers. You're there your own, you're out in the bullpen,
- 38:40Speaker 5: you're you have your own kind of you're away from
- 38:41Speaker 5: the newsroom, in your own little weather center. But I
- 38:44Speaker 5: will say, and Brooke, I have to say and I
- 38:46Speaker 5: say this to all my friends like Mark bad and
- 38:47Speaker 5: Lindsay Slater and everybody who does this.
- 38:49Speaker 2: Uh, you guys, people don't know that.
- 38:52Speaker 5: When you're doing that, you got your little clicker and
- 38:54Speaker 5: you're doing your own graphics and there's no script, there's
- 38:56Speaker 5: no prompter. That's right, weather people, and when it's I
- 39:00Speaker 5: just marvel when we do have storm coverage, people like
- 39:02Speaker 5: why are they on for eight hours telling people that
- 39:04Speaker 5: it's snowing outside? What's the deal? You're keeping people safe
- 39:07Speaker 5: and you're doing it without a prompt, And like, I'm
- 39:09Speaker 5: just like tipping. I'm just like tip my cap because
- 39:12Speaker 5: I've seen this in action, Like this is amazing what
- 39:15Speaker 5: they're doing. It's a little bit like our buddy Tim
- 39:17Speaker 5: van Vooren standing in a tunnel grabbing packers players, random
- 39:20Speaker 5: packer players that most people don't even recognize and interviewing them.
- 39:23Speaker 2: You guys do that stuff off the cuff.
- 39:25Speaker 5: And I'm just like, you guys don't get enough credit
- 39:27Speaker 5: for that part of it, the the forecasting stuff aside,
- 39:29Speaker 5: but the broadcasting, to me is impressive.
- 39:32Speaker 9: I always give props to meteorologists and then to sports
- 39:36Speaker 9: guys like you.
- 39:37Speaker 8: I mean, you guys are a living for hours on end.
- 39:40Speaker 8: So props to you guys as well.
- 39:42Speaker 5: Way we just make we just make jokes. Yeah, but
- 39:45Speaker 5: we would be doing this if the microphones weren't on,
- 39:48Speaker 5: whereas you would not be like, you know, exactly pointing
- 39:51Speaker 5: to a map telling us where the.
- 39:52Speaker 8: Storm is in public if I was just pointing randomly.
- 39:56Speaker 6: So it is there any like long range that suggests
- 39:58Speaker 6: we're going to be out of this cold snap? I
- 40:00Speaker 6: know this is like the peak, you know, the old
- 40:02Speaker 6: drums of the winter, But like, tell me, we've got
- 40:04Speaker 6: like only a couple weeks left of this at least?
- 40:06Speaker 5: Come on, I.
- 40:08Speaker 9: Guess brief good news like the six to ten day
- 40:11Speaker 9: tempter out look like slightly above appas.
- 40:13Speaker 2: I'll take it.
- 40:14Speaker 9: Come on, twenties even low thirties, you know, and then
- 40:18Speaker 9: we go back below average in the eight to fourteen
- 40:21Speaker 9: day temperature outlook, and uh well, and all determined if
- 40:25Speaker 9: the Grand Box us a shadow or not.
- 40:27Speaker 2: I can't wait.
- 40:27Speaker 7: I can't wait all that stupid rat. Oh no, I
- 40:29Speaker 7: don't brook. Don't get me started on him. Don't get
- 40:32Speaker 7: me started. Don't get me started on him. We do
- 40:34Speaker 7: have to give you credit, though, because we got introduced
- 40:36Speaker 7: to your game at the Bruce City Battle a couple
- 40:39Speaker 7: of years ago, right, And I don't know if you
- 40:41Speaker 7: remember this adorable Armenian that I think you scored four
- 40:44Speaker 7: or five straight game. Just get us just calling for
- 40:49Speaker 7: the ball to quick drop step in a hook and
- 40:52Speaker 7: Arman just palms up like I don't know what to do.
- 40:54Speaker 2: I can't guard you.
- 40:55Speaker 7: Is that what you're expecting for your buck guys coming
- 40:57Speaker 7: up this weekend?
- 40:58Speaker 2: Are you going to the game?
- 40:59Speaker 7: What's your feeling as a graduate of the Ohio State
