0:05
Speaker 1: eight minutes of radio, brought to you by the rich,
0:08
Speaker 1: complex flavor of Pendleton Whiskey Weather.

Speaker 2: But please drink responsibly, all.
0:24
Speaker 3: Right, eight o'clock hour on a Friday. Great to have
0:27
Speaker 3: you with us. And when I say us, it's Ashley
0:29
Speaker 3: Ryan and Chuck Powell with you. Bucky Jacobson still out
0:32
Speaker 3: on the extended medical leave, so yes, that hasn't changed.
0:38
Speaker 3: Still there's a set amount.
0:40
Speaker 4: Of time sent him on a medical hike.
0:42
Speaker 3: That's right, he's on a medical hike with his medical backpack,
0:46
Speaker 3: looking into medical things. And so we welcome you into
0:49
Speaker 3: our eight o'clock hour on a Friday, and that always
0:51
Speaker 3: includes the Oat Show, your eight top stories of the
0:53
Speaker 3: day to get you ready for your own medical hike
0:56
Speaker 3: if you're taking one this weekend, or to recap the
1:00
Speaker 3: week here in Seattle Sports. And so the eight top
1:04
Speaker 3: stories of the day, we shall detail them surely, all
1:08
Speaker 3: starting now, the Mariners have too many starting pitchers. I mean,
1:14
Speaker 3: it's kind of crazy how big of a story this
1:16
Speaker 3: has become, considering the fact that they're off to a
1:18
Speaker 3: disappointing eighteen and twenty start. Our superstar catcher is hitting
1:23
Speaker 3: one seventy right now. We have the worst ranked defense
1:26
Speaker 3: in the Major leagues at this stage. An injured third
1:30
Speaker 3: baseman who should be on his way back might even
1:33
Speaker 3: suit up tonight against the Chicago White Sox. I mean,
1:37
Speaker 3: we've got some issues on this baseball team. It has
1:40
Speaker 3: not gone that swimmingly. And yet what we've talked about
1:43
Speaker 3: NonStop for the last two and a half weeks has
1:46
Speaker 3: been the strength of the team, adding another really good.
1:50
Speaker 4: Pitcher to it, getting strengthier and what on.
1:54
Speaker 3: Earth are the Mariners going to do with their starting
1:58
Speaker 3: rotation once Bryce Miller Read joins the group. Well, pitching
2:02
Speaker 3: coach Pete Woodworth joined us one hour ago, and he
2:08
Speaker 3: had a difficult time kind of answering some of my questions.
2:11
Speaker 3: We knew that going in he wasn't going to be
2:14
Speaker 3: able to tell us exactly what was going to happen.
2:17
Speaker 3: That's not his job, that's not his role. He is
2:20
Speaker 3: not the Mariner's pr arm. But what he did say,
2:24
Speaker 3: and you can read into this all you want, is that, yeah,
2:31
Speaker 3: our guys really don't care when they pitch.
2:35
Speaker 5: One of the best things I've heard guys say throughout
2:38
Speaker 5: the years is that the more they realized that the
2:43
Speaker 5: number inning doesn't really matter, like whether it's the first
2:48
Speaker 5: or the fourth, or the sixth or the ninth. Once
2:50
Speaker 5: they realized that, like, it doesn't matter what number the
2:53
Speaker 5: inning is, every ending is the same. You have to
2:56
Speaker 5: get three guys out. They're either right handed or or
2:58
Speaker 5: left handed. Doesn't matter in the time of day, like
3:03
Speaker 5: it's if you can boil it down to its its
3:06
Speaker 5: simplest game, like it's you versus a hitter, it's you
3:10
Speaker 5: executing pitches to get three guys out. If you can
3:13
Speaker 5: do that, it doesn't really matter. And the more we
3:17
Speaker 5: they put pressure on different innings or different situations or
3:21
Speaker 5: different environments, they're just adding more to their plate that's unnecessary.
3:26
Speaker 3: I think that was the most telling thing that he said.
3:29
Speaker 3: I think I'm and I am definitely reading between the
3:33
Speaker 3: lines here because he defended Luis Castillo to a rather
3:37
Speaker 3: emphatic degree during the course of our interview today. He
3:41
Speaker 3: said that, you know, Bryce Miller is ready and looks great.
3:47
Speaker 3: He's praised Emerson Hancock all the way back since spring training.
3:51
Speaker 3: He's the one that told us it's a different immosson Handcock.
3:55
Speaker 3: He told us that in spring training. He gave us
3:58
Speaker 3: that one and we ran with it on this show
4:00
Speaker 3: ever since, and we've seen nothing to dispel that from
4:03
Speaker 3: Hancock so far this year. So when he says pitchers
4:09
Speaker 3: really don't mind when they pitch, that's a little different
4:14
Speaker 3: from what it used to be or maybe in other organizations,
4:17
Speaker 3: because I do think that they do mind. Yeah, maybe
4:20
Speaker 3: he's got such a good group, not just talent wise,
4:23
Speaker 3: but I mean they're best friends. They all just love
4:25
Speaker 3: one another.
4:26
Speaker 4: It seems like it maybe they are.
4:29
Speaker 3: Fine with it. Maybe they do have the right mindset.
4:31
Speaker 3: But when he goes out of his way to say,
4:33
Speaker 3: our guys really don't care when they pitch, it's still
4:37
Speaker 3: just getting hitters out, it does sort of suggest to me, Ashley,
4:42
Speaker 3: that they're going to ask someone to jump out of
4:46
Speaker 3: the starting rotation, maybe just temporarily, and maybe take on
4:52
Speaker 3: a little different role. It won't be as a three
4:56
Speaker 3: out reliever, might be a long reliever. This piggyback no
5:00
Speaker 3: that Ryan Davish has talked about might be something that
5:03
Speaker 3: is in play here where Castile puts you use piggyback
5:07
Speaker 3: Castillo and Miller together, or Hancock and Castillo together, or
5:13
Speaker 3: Hancock and Miller.
5:14
Speaker 4: Together or Kirby. Those are the two that are not allowed.
5:18
Speaker 3: I would say that about Wu and Gilbert too.
5:20
Speaker 6: Well yeah, woo, yeah, you're right, there's two options, Miller
5:24
Speaker 6: and Castilla.
5:25
Speaker 3: Yeah. So reading between the lines, it kind of sounds
5:28
Speaker 3: like they're going to do the piggyback thing and they're
5:30
Speaker 3: going to ask someone to jump out of the starting
5:34
Speaker 3: rotation and into a different role. Now, he didn't give
5:37
Speaker 3: us any indication as to which guy that might be.
5:39
Speaker 6: Right, No, and he didn't, and nor should we have
5:41
Speaker 6: expected him to say something like that. It was going
5:44
Speaker 6: to be breaking news all over Sports Center. I mean,
5:46
Speaker 6: that's that's not why we had him on, right.
5:50
Speaker 4: I just as as.
5:52
Speaker 6: You mentioned, I like that this group is seems to
5:55
Speaker 6: be the group that just wants to help the team win.
5:57
Speaker 4: His comments just kind of furthered that.
5:58
Speaker 6: I mean, we saw, you know, the guy's coming out
6:01
Speaker 6: of the bullpen in Game five against Detroit and the
6:03
Speaker 6: Alds last year, like eager to go in and help
6:06
Speaker 6: that team get that extra I mean, very very long
6:10
Speaker 6: game over with and send the Mariners onto the Alcs.
6:13
Speaker 6: And they were all so happy to participate and to help.
6:16
Speaker 6: So I think that's what this team is.
6:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, well i mean postseasons old.
6:20
Speaker 6: No it is, but I'm just saying they but they
6:22
Speaker 6: have they've always seen they I mean, he's just furthering it.
6:24
Speaker 4: They don't care when they pitch, They just want to
6:26
Speaker 4: get the job done.
6:27
Speaker 3: Well, it sounds like whatever decision's made, this is what
6:30
Speaker 3: you can read into Pete's comments that he believes his
6:33
Speaker 3: guys are going to be okay with it. Yeah, and
6:35
Speaker 3: there aren't going to be hurt feelings and there's not
6:37
Speaker 3: going to be somebody that's going to pout. He even
6:39
Speaker 3: joked about them quitting the team.
6:41
Speaker 4: Yeah. No, they're not going to have a coup.
6:42
Speaker 3: Yeah. So that's what he's confident in. What I'm not
6:47
Speaker 3: even sure he knows is going to happen is what
6:51
Speaker 3: the ultimate decision is going to be. And maybe he does.
6:53
Speaker 3: He might he might know. He might already know what
6:56
Speaker 3: they're planning to do. But he didn't seem to be
6:59
Speaker 3: worried about a six man rotation ruining people's routines or
7:03
Speaker 3: methods for preparing. And he didn't he didn't have really
7:08
Speaker 3: any concerns to speak of. He thinks it's a good
7:11
Speaker 3: problem to have another great pitcher being added or potentially
7:15
Speaker 3: great pitcher to this mix. Bryce Miller, according to Adam Jude,
7:19
Speaker 3: has been declared ready to return to the majors after
7:21
Speaker 3: his most recent rehab outing in Everett. There was thought
7:24
Speaker 3: that he would have one more reab outing in Tacoma,
7:27
Speaker 3: but it doesn't sound like that's going to happen. He
7:29
Speaker 3: might join the team as early as today in Chicago,
7:32
Speaker 3: we shall see, or at some point in Chicago. I
7:36
Speaker 3: doubt it would be today because he just pitched a
7:38
Speaker 3: couple of days ago. Also, according to Jude, even Emerson
7:42
Speaker 3: Hancock moving to the pen is a possibility in all
7:45
Speaker 3: of this, even though he's been our most effective starting
7:48
Speaker 3: pitcher all season long.
7:50
Speaker 4: So so start a coup if that happened.
7:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, great problem to have, as we've talked about repeatedly.
7:54
Speaker 3: No easy solution though, will see what they do going forward.
8:00
Speaker 3: Time they get back to action tonight after a day off,
8:02
Speaker 3: they'll be on the South side of Chicago taking on
8:06
Speaker 3: the White Sox.
8:07
Speaker 7: More Kami steps in coming deep in a white field
8:13
Speaker 7: packing shotter Moday.
8:20
Speaker 3: Munataka Moura Kami, who I wanted the Mariners to get
8:25
Speaker 3: this off season, goes to the Chicago White Sox on
8:28
Speaker 3: a scant two year, thirty four million dollars deal, which
8:33
Speaker 3: was shocking considering the numbers that were befloating were being
8:36
Speaker 3: floated around at the beginning of the process. I mean,
8:39
Speaker 3: we're talking one hundred and fifty two hundred million dollars
8:42
Speaker 3: is what they thought. Mourakami was going to get the
8:45
Speaker 3: latest Japanese hitting sensation, and instead his value just kept
8:50
Speaker 3: dropping in the off season. The White Sox got him
8:53
Speaker 3: for a song, basically, and he has rewarded them, not
8:57
Speaker 3: just with his fourteen home runs, which is second in
9:00
Speaker 3: all of Major League Baseball to this point in the year,
9:03
Speaker 3: but also just kind of that face and middle of
9:09
Speaker 3: the order kind of presence that seems to have changed
9:12
Speaker 3: the whole outlook for White Sox baseball. This is an
9:15
Speaker 3: organization coming off of three consecutive one hundred loss seasons,
9:18
Speaker 3: including a one hundred and twenty one losses just two
9:22
Speaker 3: seasons ago. But the Socks have some juice back in
9:26
Speaker 3: their organization thanks to Morikami and some others. They've got
9:29
Speaker 3: a couple pitchers that have stepped up big time so
9:32
Speaker 3: far this year. And here they sit, I mean not
9:34
Speaker 3: good seventeen and twenty, but just a half game difference
9:37
Speaker 3: from the Mariners. This is a different team than what
9:40
Speaker 3: we faced the last three years. The Chicago White Sox
9:43
Speaker 3: actually show some life right now.
9:44
Speaker 6: Yeah they do, And I mean people have been talking
9:46
Speaker 6: about them this for their with their start to the season.
9:49
Speaker 6: At one point, didn't they sweep somebody early in the season.
9:52
Speaker 4: That was kind of a surprise.
9:53
Speaker 6: I can't remember now as I'm saying it, but yeah,
9:55
Speaker 6: they've They're definitely not You're not going in saying oh
9:59
Speaker 6: that's an easy sweep.
10:00
Speaker 4: You're not doing that.
10:01
Speaker 3: Oh no, oh no, not way.
10:03
Speaker 4: Well, definitely not so doubly you're not saying it.
10:07
Speaker 6: But you know, I think even the way we were playing,
10:09
Speaker 6: if they were playing how they were last year, I'd
10:10
Speaker 6: be like, oh, we probably have a good chance at
10:12
Speaker 6: to sleep.
10:13
Speaker 4: I got we gotta play good baseball.
10:15
Speaker 3: First pitch is that four p forty Sean Berke will
10:17
Speaker 3: pitch for them. He has a two point seven to
10:19
Speaker 3: two ERA. He is one of those guys young White
10:21
Speaker 3: Sox pitchers off to a terrific start this year. Meanwhile,
10:24
Speaker 3: Emerson Hancock goes for the Mariners and might it be
10:28
Speaker 3: his last start for a while. I sure, hope not.
10:31
Speaker 3: I think that would be the one mistake. That'd be
10:33
Speaker 3: the one decision that I think I would just categorize
10:37
Speaker 3: as that's dumb. I will lose my you know what
10:42
Speaker 3: item number three on our eight item o show. Tonight,
10:45
Speaker 3: the w NBA regular season gets underway and the Storm
10:50
Speaker 3: will be one of the three opening night game.
10:53
Speaker 6: That was gosh tenor twelve. Yeah, his voice sound a
10:56
Speaker 6: little sped up, ye young when he came out. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:01
Speaker 4: Thanks song and he had a couple of good songs. Yeah,
11:04
Speaker 4: liked him.

11:22
Speaker 3: have the stage for themselves tonight at seven o'clock, taking

11:39
Speaker 3: of the Chicago Skyler Diggins and Gabby Williams plays for
11:44
Speaker 3: the Valkyries, which is tonight's opponent. So a completely new look,
11:49
Speaker 3: a very large roster. I mean they're gonna be interior
11:53
Speaker 3: heavy with the way that they're attacking this plus the
11:57
Speaker 3: debut of Floge.
11:58
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's go.
12:00
Speaker 3: Lissa Charles Charleston Smith has a new role this year
12:03
Speaker 3: with the Storm, so we'll talk about that with her

12:25
Speaker 3: am tomorrow that's the big showcase game of opening weekend
12:28
Speaker 3: in the WNBA.
12:29
Speaker 6: I would say I will be watching, but I will
12:31
Speaker 6: be at softball. Oh well that's right.
12:36
Speaker 3: Well, Happy Mother's Day.
12:37
Speaker 6: Thank you.
12:40
Speaker 3: NBA playoffs. Man. The first round look ended up being
12:45
Speaker 3: really intriguing when I didn't think it was going to be.
12:48
Speaker 3: And this second round that everybody was looking forward to.
12:51
Speaker 3: Are we just going to have a bunch of sweeps
12:53
Speaker 3: and one five game series. Last night it felt that way.
12:57
Speaker 3: Detroit handled Cleveland again. Dickens over the cutting hair. Back
13:05
Speaker 3: to Dickens free ball, cutting hair, Lewis, it's true cutting
13:13
Speaker 3: cutting hand. Detroit one oh seven ninety seven over Cleveland.
13:20
Speaker 3: They are up two oh? Was that Prime Video?
13:22
Speaker 1: There? Is that?
13:23
Speaker 3: What that audio is from?
13:24
Speaker 4: I'd love to give you an answer on that. I'm
13:26
Speaker 4: not sure.
13:27
Speaker 3: I wanted to credit somehore. Yeah, just it's either Prime
13:31
Speaker 3: Video or Detroit Pistons Audio Network.
13:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, one of the other.
13:35
Speaker 3: There you go, okay. See also is up two oh.
13:37
Speaker 3: They demolished the Lakers again last night, one twenty five
13:40
Speaker 3: to one oh seven. SGA isn't even playing well, and
13:43
Speaker 3: yet they're still destroying the Lakers. Here in round number two.
13:46
Speaker 3: New York's up on Philadelphia two games to none. But
13:50
Speaker 3: the shit series does shift to Philadelphia starting tonight and
13:54
Speaker 3: San Antonio and Minnesota. That's been the only compelling series
13:59
Speaker 3: to this point. San Antonio will is even up with
14:03
Speaker 3: the Wolves that won a piece, so they'll play in
14:04
Speaker 3: Minnesota for the first time tonight. Stanley Cup playoffs. Man,
14:09
Speaker 3: this is starting to feel like a fore gone conclusion.
14:12
Speaker 3: There are like two runaway trucks in the NHL right now,
14:16
Speaker 3: and they seem to be on a collision course to
14:18
Speaker 3: meeting in the Stanley Cup Finals Colorado Avalanche or one
14:22
Speaker 3: of them. In the West and on the East, the
14:24
Speaker 3: Carolina Hurricanes are just toying with people.
14:29
Speaker 2: To work with across the scene. Spechnakoff picks it to
14:32
Speaker 2: his stick Gosta's pair at a one timer piece Stars.
14:41
Speaker 3: Oh, finally a goal time from him showed up. Setchnikoff.
14:45
Speaker 3: If that is your real name, I don't think it is.
14:47
Speaker 3: I think your name is Andy Jones.
14:51
Speaker 4: Just Nakoff sounds more hockey like.
14:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, get more respect in the locker room. And
14:56
Speaker 3: your name is Svechnikoff.
14:57
Speaker 4: That's probably true.
14:59
Speaker 3: The Hurricanes, i'd be the least hyped great team in
15:03
Speaker 3: pro sports. I mean, they just win every year they
15:05
Speaker 3: don't and they've won it all before.
15:08
Speaker 2: In this era.
15:10
Speaker 3: They went into Philadelphia last night and just did the
15:13
Speaker 3: exact same thing that they did when they were home,
15:16
Speaker 3: maybe even great or so. They just whooped the Flyers
15:20
Speaker 3: four to one. The Flyers found themselves without answers, and
15:24
Speaker 3: so you know what they did. They just pulled a
15:25
Speaker 3: framber Valdez. They just tried throwing things at the Canes.
15:29
Speaker 3: They were so angry and so frustrated that well, not baseballs,
15:33
Speaker 3: but their fists. They just started getting in fights. They
15:36
Speaker 3: were just that's what a really frustrat It's like when
15:39
Speaker 3: you're you see two brothers, eight year old, nine year
15:43
Speaker 3: old brothers wrestling in the backyard and one doesn't have
15:46
Speaker 3: answers and just starts getting angry and starts punching instead
15:49
Speaker 3: of wrestling. That's the way that they conducted themselves last night.
15:53
Speaker 3: And the Canes are like, whatever, we'll beat you up too. Yeah.
15:56
Speaker 6: Fine, They're like, all right, if you want to throw
15:58
Speaker 6: some fights in here, we can have some fun. Yeah,
16:00
Speaker 6: we can get get into fisticuffs.
16:02
Speaker 3: I mean, you're doing it because you're insecure.
16:05
Speaker 4: Let's face it, it says a lot more about you
16:07
Speaker 4: than it says about me.
16:09
Speaker 3: Caine's rep. Three to zero in the series, they'll vie
16:11
Speaker 3: for the sweep on Saturday tonight, Montreal at Buffalo. The
16:15
Speaker 3: Sabers are up one game Buffalo go oo in that series,
16:19
Speaker 3: and then Las Vegas and Anaheim also played tonight for
16:21
Speaker 3: the first time in Anaheim in that series is even
16:24
Speaker 3: at one game. A piece Item number six on the Friday,
16:28
Speaker 3: Oh Joe, The NCAA Tournament yesterday was officially expanded to
16:33
Speaker 3: seventy six teams. I'm not bothered by it at all.
16:37
Speaker 6: Ruined.
16:45
Speaker 4: No, you're not bothered at all.
16:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I don't know why we played that clip.
16:49
Speaker 4: You have no problems with it.
16:50
Speaker 3: I mean, it's not ruined. But I just don't know
16:54
Speaker 3: why in sports we take the things that are the
16:57
Speaker 3: best things and, for lack of a better phrase, dick
17:03
Speaker 3: with them. Yeah, agreed, Why do we do that? Why
17:07
Speaker 3: is that necessary to do that? I mean, you have
17:10
Speaker 3: a lot of things that need fixed in college athletics
17:13
Speaker 3: right now. Work on those. Yeah, don't take the one
17:17
Speaker 3: thing that has been just a steam engine, just locomotive
17:22
Speaker 3: throughout the years, and now let's try to soup it up.
17:26
Speaker 3: You've made it worse. You made it worse when you
17:28
Speaker 3: went to sixty eight, and now you've made it worse
17:30
Speaker 3: by going to seventy six. And I know you're not
17:32
Speaker 3: done abusing it. It's gonna be worse yet before it's
17:35
Speaker 3: all said and done, you're gonna ruin the only great
17:38
Speaker 3: thing left about college basketball.
17:40
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know not that they're playing the sport
17:42
Speaker 6: for the brackets. But a lot of people are watching
17:45
Speaker 6: March Madness because of the brackets. So that's gonna be
17:48
Speaker 6: a whole other thing to deal with, is how the
17:50
Speaker 6: brackets all all of a sudden get all screwy.
17:52
Speaker 3: Well, we're gonna have to count them. I'll tell you that.
17:54
Speaker 3: There's so many games now that we can't just like
17:57
Speaker 3: not count them any now.
17:58
Speaker 6: You're gonna have to have your bracket done on a Monday.
18:00
Speaker 6: You don't get to have all week to sit there.
18:02
Speaker 3: And you gotta have your bragger done on a Monday.
18:04
Speaker 4: That's or at least Tuesday morning. That's dumb.
18:06
Speaker 3: And you gotta fill it all out. You gotta fill
18:08
Speaker 3: the whole thing out. You gotta fill out twelve versus
18:11
Speaker 3: twelve and all that stuff.
18:12
Speaker 4: I gonna have nearly enough time to go back and
18:14
Speaker 4: forth and think about my picks too much.
18:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's gotten you so far.
18:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, clearly.
18:20
Speaker 3: Finally from the National Football League, Aaron Rodgers is visiting
18:24
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh this weekend. Even in Pittsburgh, they know what he's
18:31
Speaker 3: really famous.
18:32
Speaker 4: For, discount double check.
18:34
Speaker 3: I would love that if Aaron Rodgers was just visiting
18:38
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh to be the smart ass that he is and
18:42
Speaker 3: just decides to go and there's just a thousand pictures
18:46
Speaker 3: of him for to two and a half days going
18:49
Speaker 3: around Pittsburgh and seeing all the.
18:51
Speaker 4: Sights and just taking pictures of things, and never.
18:54
Speaker 3: Even goes to the Steelers facility. So it was accurate.
18:57
Speaker 3: He is visiting Pittsburgh this weekend, but he never or
19:00
Speaker 3: even goes.
19:00
Speaker 6: To see My wife had never been because I keep
19:04
Speaker 6: her in a secret, remote location.
19:06
Speaker 4: So no one can ever meet her or see her.
19:08
Speaker 3: That would be great.
19:09
Speaker 2: I hope you do it.
19:10
Speaker 3: But it does sound like he is going to sign
19:12
Speaker 3: this weekend with the Steelers. So once again a lot
19:15
Speaker 3: of hype around Aaron Rodgers and looks like he will
19:18
Speaker 3: settle where we all expected him to settle. Meanwhile, the
19:22
Speaker 3: Cardinals rumors can now die that we're connected to Aaron Rodgers.
19:27
Speaker 3: Of course, this week for the sea Hawks, Dante Fowler
19:30
Speaker 3: Junior became a Seahawks. Earlier this week, we also got
19:33
Speaker 3: a little bit of an indication of who might be
19:36
Speaker 3: the next Seahawks ownership group. Apparently a trio of billionaires
19:43
Speaker 3: might combine in this effort. One of the guys, like
19:46
Speaker 3: the only guy that you might know is the guy
19:49
Speaker 3: that owns the Celtics. Wick is his name, and he
19:53
Speaker 3: did some great things with the Celtics when he took
19:55
Speaker 3: over ownership there. But he's part of the trio. But
19:59
Speaker 3: who knows. Who knows how legitimate it is. NFL refs
20:02
Speaker 3: were supposed to vote on a new an agreement last night.
20:07
Speaker 3: I have not heard whether or not that went through.
20:10
Speaker 3: I don't even know if they had the vote, So
20:12
Speaker 3: we haven't gotten any word as far as I can see,
20:15
Speaker 3: whether or not. We know for a fact that the
20:17
Speaker 3: NFL refs will be ready for the start of the season.
20:20
Speaker 3: Maybe we still will have replacements. Who knows. Finally, Sounders
20:23
Speaker 3: in action against San Diego. That will be tomorrow night,
20:28
Speaker 3: seven point thirty at lumen Field. All right, Coming up
20:31
Speaker 3: next on the radio program SUP is something that we've
20:35
Speaker 3: brought to the table here in recent days. Well, I
20:39
Speaker 3: said I was going to couple it with SUP with you. Well,
20:43
Speaker 3: we've already asked the question. We now give your answers.
20:46
Speaker 3: Next on Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. He
20:50
Speaker 3: did the robot and he was actually really good at it.
20:53
Speaker 3: But the problem is that Neil was one of those
20:55
Speaker 3: kids that got dropped on his head as a kid,
20:57
Speaker 3: and that's actually a real thing. And so he had
20:59
Speaker 3: his neck like fused so he couldn't move his neck,
21:04
Speaker 3: so he moved like a robot anyway.
21:06
Speaker 4: So it's cheating kind of.
21:08
Speaker 3: That's kind of what we yelled as we threw things.
21:10
Speaker 4: Oh you guys were such jerks.
21:14
Speaker 3: That's how you move all the time, Sadler.
21:17
Speaker 4: This isn't a talent.
21:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, stalks of celery on the stage, watermelon what I
21:28
Speaker 3: was just trying to give it an old timey feel.
21:30
Speaker 6: Oh god, I was like, wait a minute, because they
21:32
Speaker 6: used to like throw like vegetables, tomatoes.
21:35
Speaker 3: Produce at bad performers.
21:38
Speaker 4: To throw tomatoes, Celery would just bounce right off.
21:41
Speaker 3: I was trying to make it sound like I'm even
21:43
Speaker 3: older than I am.
21:44
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, yeah, you were even jerkier.
21:48
Speaker 3: Well that that might have been the case. No, we
21:49
Speaker 3: actually were. We actually we were a very good group.
21:53
Speaker 3: We you know, nobody picked on neil talent. No we didn't.
21:57
Speaker 3: We didn't. But there was this feeling like amongst us,
22:00
Speaker 3: like is it looking any different than what he just
22:03
Speaker 3: normally does?
22:04
Speaker 4: Was he making robot noises too?
22:06
Speaker 3: I don't know, but he did it to mister Robato,
22:09
Speaker 3: as of course he did solid because he's not even
22:11
Speaker 3: because he's not even creative.
22:13
Speaker 4: I mean I say solid choice, you say he's not creative.
22:19
Speaker 3: So it was just one more of one of these
22:21
Speaker 3: like we didn't like boo him or harass him. It
22:23
Speaker 3: was just more of like, is it look any different
22:25
Speaker 3: to you? Yeah?
22:26
Speaker 2: Really?
22:27
Speaker 4: I mean fair question.
22:29
Speaker 3: All right. By the way, you can but whatever your
22:35
Speaker 3: victory dance is, you can do it at the Talala
22:37
Speaker 3: Presort Casino. You win, crack out the robot, celebrate with
22:42
Speaker 3: a robot, you know when win a hand at bingo,
22:49
Speaker 3: and because I know they have that there, Yeah, and
22:52
Speaker 3: then just robot it just hang that arm down right
22:55
Speaker 3: in the faces that everybody around you. Yeah, t Lela
22:57
Speaker 3: Presort Casino. They're waiting for you this weekend. Go be
23:00
Speaker 3: a part of the DraftKings sportsbook, all sorts of sports
23:03
Speaker 3: things to bed on right now, have some fun out there,
23:06
Speaker 3: or you can always go to Quilsea to Creete Casino.
23:08
Speaker 3: I mean they got everything Everythingtalalup dot com. All right,
23:13
Speaker 3: we introduced a brand new feature now long ago called
23:15
Speaker 3: sup trying to just kind of ramp up the listener
23:19
Speaker 3: interaction here on the radio show, and so that's gone
23:22
Speaker 3: really well, and I thought, well, that's kind of selfish.
23:25
Speaker 3: They always hear our opinions on stuff, So let's do sup.
23:28
Speaker 3: And then that's the next day, Do SUP with you?
23:32
Speaker 5: I like it?
23:33
Speaker 3: And so we threw out something today at six forty five.
23:36
Speaker 3: Seems like the hot topic of conversation right now is
23:38
Speaker 3: the Mariner's rotation. So we put up a poll. We're
23:42
Speaker 3: going to get the results of that here from Ashley
23:44
Speaker 3: in a moment. And we also asked you at four
23:46
Speaker 3: nine four five one to send us some texts with
23:49
Speaker 3: your opinions on what the Mariners should do with their
23:53
Speaker 3: rotation once Bryce Miller does return to the fold. So
23:57
Speaker 3: let's start with a pole. Do you want to start
23:58
Speaker 3: with the pol or do you want to start with
23:59
Speaker 3: the text?
24:00
Speaker 4: With the poll?
24:00
Speaker 3: Okay, so right now we've gotten with the poll.
24:03
Speaker 4: With the poll, sixty two point eight percent Castillo to
24:07
Speaker 4: the pen.
24:09
Speaker 3: Oh so overwhelming, overwhelming? Next time? Are we that great
24:13
Speaker 3: of influencers on this show or is it that obvious
24:17
Speaker 3: that that's what I think?
24:18
Speaker 4: It's just that obvious that that's what people would want
24:20
Speaker 4: to have happened.
24:21
Speaker 6: Okay, I mean I like to think we have a
24:23
Speaker 6: good influence twenty nine point one percent six man rotation, okay,
24:30
Speaker 6: seven percent, Miller to the pen, one point two percent.
24:34
Speaker 4: Hancock to the pen. And I need to have a
24:37
Speaker 4: talk with those people.
24:38
Speaker 3: Who is the one point two percent?
24:40
Speaker 4: I like, are idiots?
24:41
Speaker 3: Okay? Are you honestly are you just trying to be different?
24:45
Speaker 3: You're just trying to be difficult.
24:47
Speaker 4: Because I don't know why you could look at what's
24:48
Speaker 4: going on and think that's the ends.
24:49
Speaker 3: Well, I suppose there is. I mean, they might come
24:54
Speaker 3: up the Mariners might come up with that as the solution,
24:57
Speaker 3: but so and they've got a lot more information than
24:59
Speaker 3: we have. So the Mariners might arrive at that conclusion.
25:03
Speaker 3: And I don't think that we can sit here and say,
25:07
Speaker 3: I mean, we can have our opinion and maybe we
25:09
Speaker 3: will end up being right, but certainly we don't have
25:12
Speaker 3: the information that they have at their fingertips. So I
25:14
Speaker 3: don't you know, Yeah, I think there's a pretty good
25:17
Speaker 3: chance that one point two percent people are just trying
25:20
Speaker 3: to be difficult and different. But I would like to
25:24
Speaker 3: know the rationale behind a fan, a Mariner's fan that
25:28
Speaker 3: has arrived at that conclusion.
25:30
Speaker 6: Yes, I would as well, because it just seems as
25:31
Speaker 6: a fan without all the information that the Mariners have,
25:34
Speaker 6: you just have what you've seen from Emerson Hancock.
25:37
Speaker 4: I don't know how you could come to the conclusion
25:39
Speaker 4: that he should be moved to the bullpen.
25:41
Speaker 3: I don't either. I hope the Mariners don't, but I
25:43
Speaker 3: guess it's a possibility.
25:44
Speaker 4: Better not.
25:45
Speaker 3: I suppose it's a possibility. All right, So we're all,
25:48
Speaker 3: we're mostly not all. We're mostly on the same page
25:51
Speaker 3: here that we feel that if anybody is moved out,
25:56
Speaker 3: we're going to stick with a five man rotation. Emerson
25:58
Speaker 3: stays in, and if anybody moves out of it, Castile
26:03
Speaker 3: would be our first choice. That is the three out
26:06
Speaker 3: of four, out of billions of people surveyed, three out
26:10
Speaker 3: of four of them have arrived at this conclusion. So
26:13
Speaker 3: either we just have really simple minds and we simple
26:17
Speaker 3: minded people think alike, or this is just flat out
26:21
Speaker 3: the right thing to do. What's the text line? Do
26:23
Speaker 3: we have some anybody that has expanded on their thoughts?
26:26
Speaker 6: See, I got it, okay, So stup with you people,
26:29
Speaker 6: stup with you people. We've got my choice, Miller to
26:33
Speaker 6: the bullpen. I think Louise has arm fatigue. This is
26:37
Speaker 6: from the four two five and needs some time on
26:39
Speaker 6: the il again.
26:40
Speaker 3: Right, Okay, Now, the pitching coach told us at seven
26:44
Speaker 3: o'clock that is not the case. He does not see
26:47
Speaker 3: anything wrong with Luis Castillo. And he said, he said, like,
26:51
Speaker 3: I don't want to sound like the person that's just
26:53
Speaker 3: making excuses for my guys, but he believes that both
26:57
Speaker 3: he and Munjos have just ran into some really crap luck.
27:00
Speaker 3: I believe that with Munos. I don't see that with Castillo.
27:03
Speaker 6: Yeah, personally, yeah, yeah, I am the same way. It
27:09
Speaker 6: just seems again with the decreased velocity, that's more concerning.
27:13
Speaker 6: Four to five, says Castilla to the pen. Three six,
27:16
Speaker 6: so says, any chance they trade one of the starters,
27:18
Speaker 6: possibly later this season, Should that be an option?
27:21
Speaker 3: Oh, you know, we haven't been discussing that much as
27:25
Speaker 3: of late. I did bring that up a month ago
27:29
Speaker 3: because the Chicago Cubs had lost like four of their
27:33
Speaker 3: five starters. Yeah, and I said, that's a team that
27:38
Speaker 3: does not want to dig too big of a hole
27:40
Speaker 3: for itself. They need starting pitching. They might even be
27:43
Speaker 3: desperate in their need for starting pitching, which they've proven
27:45
Speaker 3: not to be because they're winning every game right now.
27:48
Speaker 3: So I threw out a Castillo for Halp trade. Yeah,
27:52
Speaker 3: I think that was class half full on my part,
27:54
Speaker 3: and Ian App's having a really good year. But I
28:00
Speaker 3: don't I just I just don't think people are of
28:03
Speaker 3: a mindset. I mean, if anybody was going to try
28:05
Speaker 3: to trade for a starting pitcher, it was going to
28:07
Speaker 3: be the Chicago Cubs when they lost their fourth guy
28:11
Speaker 3: in their rotation. They just don't think trade, especially significant
28:17
Speaker 3: trade like that at this stage in the season. It
28:22
Speaker 3: has been tossed out. I mean Logan Gilbert's name was
28:24
Speaker 3: brought up as possibly being dealt not too long ago. Yeah,
28:29
Speaker 3: that maybe that's a solution, and that was by I
28:31
Speaker 3: think Jeff Passon was saying that.
28:33
Speaker 6: So just not you know, the two zero six said
28:35
Speaker 6: trade Logan to the Nationals for CJ. Abrams. That was
28:38
Speaker 6: their suggestion.
28:39
Speaker 3: Oh boy, that would be quite the shakeup. I don't
28:44
Speaker 3: think the Nationals are They're at Let's If they're trading Abrams,
28:49
Speaker 3: then they're in a rebuild. They're looking for prospects, they're
28:52
Speaker 3: not looking for somebody's going to be a free agent
28:54
Speaker 3: in a year and a half and then they might
28:56
Speaker 3: not be able to afford him or keep him. So
28:58
Speaker 3: I just don't think that's the most that the Nationals
29:01
Speaker 3: are in right now. We did do a complete breakdown
29:04
Speaker 3: of this if you recall of how difficult it is
29:07
Speaker 3: to thread that needle on a trade for a starting pitcher,
29:10
Speaker 3: especially a Logan Gilbert at this point of the year.
29:14
Speaker 3: I mean, I think I concluded basically, you're going to
29:17
Speaker 3: have to get an right handed, hitting, affordable, all star
29:25
Speaker 3: caliber third baseman or right fielder who is available on
29:31
Speaker 3: a team in contention that has excess offense and a
29:37
Speaker 3: deficit of starting pitching, and to try to pull that
29:40
Speaker 3: off before Bryce Miller gets activated. Boy, that is a
29:44
Speaker 3: real tiny needle to have to thread. Yeah.
29:47
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think when you did it, it was like
29:49
Speaker 6: two or three options that were still long shots.
29:51
Speaker 3: And even that, yeah, you're right, even those were long shots.
29:54
Speaker 6: Yeah, two, five, three, says Emerson Walter wu Kirby. I
29:58
Speaker 6: like the piggyback idea with Lou and Bryce better than
30:01
Speaker 6: the other options that have been discussed.
30:03
Speaker 3: I don't mind it. I'd never seen anybody do it.
30:07
Speaker 3: You're breaking new ground if you start doing that. But
30:10
Speaker 3: I did float that out last year with Hancock when
30:13
Speaker 3: we were struggling a little bit with durability from our relievers.
30:19
Speaker 3: I threw it out as could you use him? Just
30:22
Speaker 3: designate it. You know, it's mun yos and see me
30:26
Speaker 3: Castillo and Hancock starting this game. We're gonna get five
30:28
Speaker 3: from him and four from him. Give the bullpen an
30:30
Speaker 3: entire day's rest. I mean, never seen anybody do it before,
30:34
Speaker 3: but maybe it is. Maybe it's not a bad outside
30:37
Speaker 3: the box idea. And it sounds like they're going to
30:39
Speaker 3: do something similar. It kind of feels like that's what
30:41
Speaker 3: they're leaning towards.
30:42
Speaker 4: Yeah, it does.
30:43
Speaker 6: It does from the two, five to three. It should
30:45
Speaker 6: be so simple the way the Seahawks do it. Whoever's
30:47
Speaker 6: playing and practicing the best plays.
30:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, shouldn't it be.
30:50
Speaker 4: Shouldn't it be? Yeah, that's how it should be. That'd
30:52
Speaker 4: be great.
30:52
Speaker 3: I'm with you.
30:53
Speaker 4: We also got you got to pay the guy twenty
30:55
Speaker 4: three million. Castillo.
30:56
Speaker 6: He's meaning the year, whether he's sitting on the bench,
30:58
Speaker 6: starting and losing game for you or helping you out
31:01
Speaker 6: in other ways. So you might as well figure out
31:02
Speaker 6: the best most effective way to use him.
31:04
Speaker 3: And in Pete's words, like he doesn't have a problem
31:07
Speaker 3: child in this group, like, and Luis isn't either, And yeah,
31:10
Speaker 3: it might be a little bit of a shot to
31:12
Speaker 3: his ego to be the highest paid guy and the
31:14
Speaker 3: oldest guy and the most accomplished guy in this group.
31:17
Speaker 3: And he can't make a starting rotation when he'd probably
31:21
Speaker 3: be in the starting rotation on twenty eight other teams
31:24
Speaker 3: in Major League Baseball. But if that's true, these guys
31:29
Speaker 3: don't care when they pitch or how it works out,
31:31
Speaker 3: then he should be perfectly in the running to suffer
31:36
Speaker 3: a slight emotion to the bullpen, which is what we
31:40
Speaker 3: all think seventy five percent of us think should happen.
31:42
Speaker 4: Yeah, seven to two.
31:44
Speaker 6: Oho, this is along the lines of Opening Day, how
31:46
Speaker 6: they decided this starting pitcher set up the rotation alphabetically,
31:49
Speaker 6: set up the bullpen alphabetically.
31:51
Speaker 3: Pete joked, it was by height, by hype.
31:53
Speaker 4: Yeah, but yeah, but if we want to go alphabet sure.
31:56
Speaker 3: Well, we don't need to reset the whole thing. We
31:59
Speaker 3: just got to figure out who stays in it. That's
32:02
Speaker 3: that's that's what we're out to accomplish here.
32:04
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, so that's yeah, we'll see, is that it right,
32:11
Speaker 6: I'm sure you have more. Yeah, we've got a lot more,
32:13
Speaker 6: but I think those are like the okay, oh here
32:15
Speaker 6: three six, So keep Castillo in the rotation, maybe piggyback
32:19
Speaker 6: with Miller out of the pen, or put Miller in
32:20
Speaker 6: the pen until Brash Inspire come back.
32:22
Speaker 4: So yeah, similar there.
32:23
Speaker 3: Well, well that's mill Krueger's suggestion. He thinks he thinks
32:26
Speaker 3: it's natural if if Miller's not stretched out, thinks Miller's
32:29
Speaker 3: got the right mentality. You just put Miller in the
32:32
Speaker 3: pen while you're down a couple of guys, and he
32:35
Speaker 3: doesn't have to go just one inning. He obviously's built
32:38
Speaker 3: up to go two or three if you needed him too.
32:41
Speaker 3: But I know how confident they are with Bryce, and
32:45
Speaker 3: I know how professional organizations work. They really don't want
32:49
Speaker 3: you to lose your job because of injury. Right, That's
32:53
Speaker 3: why again, from Ashley and I's perspective, that's why Castillo
32:56
Speaker 3: makes more sense because he's not losing it because of injury,
33:00
Speaker 3: losing it because of performance. And that doesn't mean that
33:02
Speaker 3: he couldn't get back into there if somebody else, including Hancock,
33:08
Speaker 3: starts to trip up and he starts pitching better. But right,
33:11
Speaker 3: now I'm just about winning. I just want to win,
33:13
Speaker 3: and I want the best starting pitcher on the mound
33:16
Speaker 3: for that Night's objective to win every single night.
33:20
Speaker 6: And I guarantee you those guys want to be able
33:22
Speaker 6: to contribute as much as possible and be as successful
33:24
Speaker 6: as possible, but what they want the most is to win.
33:26
Speaker 3: Coming up next, the latest on the Seahawks ownership group.
33:30
Speaker 3: And you may have thought you had the latest, but
33:32
Speaker 3: there is some new information that has popped up, so
33:35
Speaker 3: we'll cover that next on Sports Radio ninety three point
33:37
Speaker 3: three KJRFM. Oh, happy Friday to you all. Chuck and
33:54
Speaker 3: Ashley with you here on Sports Radio ninety three point
33:56
Speaker 3: three KJRFM. We have some Seahawks ownership news. Do get
34:01
Speaker 3: his worked up about worked up about this as some people, I.
34:04
Speaker 6: Don't get worked up. I was going to be bothered if,
34:07
Speaker 6: like Mark Mark Zuckerberg the Seahawks. That just seemed stupid.
34:12
Speaker 3: And I guess that that fear of having somebody Oh
34:14
Speaker 3: I didn't absolutely didn't want that person. Yeah, I guess
34:19
Speaker 3: that does exist out there, but I mean it's just
34:23
Speaker 3: hard for me. I mean, I get accused of trying
34:27
Speaker 3: to be a know it all about things I think
34:29
Speaker 3: I know. Yeah, So to try to come off as
34:33
Speaker 3: understanding what billionaires out there might be good owners, I
34:38
Speaker 3: have no idea. Now I will acknowledge that, Yeah, you
34:42
Speaker 3: want a great owner. It all starts at the top, right,
34:46
Speaker 3: All you want is somebody that gives the money, make
34:50
Speaker 3: sure you have all the resources you need, hires the
34:53
Speaker 3: right football people, and then lets the football people be
34:56
Speaker 3: the football people, right, that's the main thing.
34:58
Speaker 4: Let's the football people be the foot people. And does
35:00
Speaker 4: doesn't come in thinking they know more than them.
35:03
Speaker 3: I have no idea how aggressive Venode Coesla's football knowledge
35:08
Speaker 3: is billionaire from Sun Microsystems. Yeah, maybe he's won his
35:15
Speaker 3: Fantasy league, you know, seven of the last eight years
35:19
Speaker 3: and thinks he's a football expert. I have no idea.
35:22
Speaker 3: I don't know if aditya mittal. You know, maybe he
35:28
Speaker 3: considers himself the prince of Indian football knowledge. You know,
35:34
Speaker 3: I have no idea exactly how intelligent he is or
35:38
Speaker 3: how schooled he is on football. Obviously a pretty good
35:42
Speaker 3: business man. And by the way, Addie, I'm gonna call
35:45
Speaker 3: you addie.
35:46
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's better.
35:47
Speaker 3: We've already got an addie. Dirty, don't try to take
35:50
Speaker 3: that nickname. No, yeah, I do know Wick Grossbeck. These
35:55
Speaker 3: are the three names that Greg wrote about at the
35:57
Speaker 3: News Tribune as possible billionaire owners for the Seahawks. Wick
36:03
Speaker 3: Grosbeck is a guy. If you've seen the Boston Celtics documentary,
36:09
Speaker 3: which you should see because it's fantastic. Wick Grossbeck is
36:13
Speaker 3: the guy that took over, was the ownership group that
36:16
Speaker 3: took over the Celtics because the Celtics had never had
36:18
Speaker 3: like a might be the worst franchise in the sport
36:22
Speaker 3: right now period until right before Wick Grosbeck took over.
36:27
Speaker 3: And then he took over, and he comes across very likable,
36:30
Speaker 3: very aware. He's the guy that said, we're not going
36:33
Speaker 3: to mistreat red Auerbach in this organization, even though we
36:36
Speaker 3: know he's on his last leg. We're not going to
36:39
Speaker 3: treat him like we want him out of the building.
36:42
Speaker 3: So they embrace stuff like that, a tip of the
36:45
Speaker 3: cap to the past, all of that sort of thing.
36:46
Speaker 3: So I kind of like his name being involved. What
36:49
Speaker 3: little I know about him and have observed, I like.
36:52
Speaker 3: So that's a group that's made the rounds of possibly
36:56
Speaker 3: purchasing the Seahawks. But there is a new story that
36:59
Speaker 3: is out to day, and it is Seth Wickersham that
37:02
Speaker 3: has written it. And Seth Wickersham, you know, that's the
37:05
Speaker 3: guy that I was always trying to blow the lids
37:07
Speaker 3: off of scandalous stories. Wasn't he the guy that wrote
37:12
Speaker 3: the Seahawks flow to why story? I think he was,
37:18
Speaker 3: so he wrote an article. It just came out today,
37:21
Speaker 3: just a little bit of go. As a matter of fact,
37:23
Speaker 3: I'm saying that the Seahawks sale is drawing softer than
37:27
Speaker 3: expected interest.
37:31
Speaker 4: I don't you know, Seth.
37:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what that, how that, why that matters,
37:38
Speaker 3: Why that's important. I'm trying to figure out why that
37:41
Speaker 3: is important.
37:43
Speaker 5: That.
37:44
Speaker 3: Okay, so they're setting an asking price of ten to
37:48
Speaker 3: eleven billion dollars and there aren't another there is not
37:51
Speaker 3: a long line of people signing up for that, so
37:53
Speaker 3: then just drop the price. Yeah, and if there is
37:57
Speaker 3: one person willing to pay eleven billion dollars, then it's
38:00
Speaker 3: the highest value in the history of the sport. So
38:05
Speaker 3: doesn't sound so soft to me. I'm not really worried.
38:09
Speaker 3: I don't care if it sells for fourteen bucks. As
38:11
Speaker 3: long as it goes to the right people.
38:13
Speaker 4: That's literally the only concern.
38:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, why do I give an f how much it
38:17
Speaker 3: goes for or if there are five people interested or
38:20
Speaker 3: five thousand people that can pay it. So I don't
38:24
Speaker 3: know if I'm supposed to be worried that there's not
38:27
Speaker 3: as much interest, or if it's just an interesting fact.
38:30
Speaker 3: Apparently Denver and Washington had longer lines to buy the
38:35
Speaker 3: Broncos and the Commanders than what the Seahawks did, but
38:37
Speaker 3: they sold for like six billion dollars. Yeah, we're not
38:40
Speaker 3: talking We're talking like ten to eleven apparently, which is
38:43
Speaker 3: the sale purchase price for the Seahawks. So whatever, I mean,
38:50
Speaker 3: I'm fine if it's actually a little bit lower. The
38:54
Speaker 3: lower it is, the more people that I have that
38:56
Speaker 3: might be able to afford it. The more people that
38:58
Speaker 3: I have that might be able to afford it. Odds
39:00
Speaker 3: are we're going to get a better football person and
39:02
Speaker 3: not just somebody that can sign a bigger check, I
39:05
Speaker 3: would think. So, yeah, right, yeah, doesn't that make sense?
39:08
Speaker 4: And that's yeah.
39:08
Speaker 3: I mean, if you want to, if you want to franchise,
39:11
Speaker 3: value it at one hundred billion dollars, okay, then we're
39:14
Speaker 3: going to get either Musk yeah or Bezos Okay.
39:19
Speaker 6: And yeah, and the thing I just as I said,
39:21
Speaker 6: the thing I don't want is someone coming in with
39:23
Speaker 6: a big ego who thinks they know more about football
39:26
Speaker 6: than the football people.
39:28
Speaker 4: I don't want that.
39:29
Speaker 6: I don't want somebody who's never worked in pro sports
39:32
Speaker 6: to think that they should be actively running the team.
39:36
Speaker 4: Now, you should own the team and put them in
39:37
Speaker 4: the best position for the people you hire to do
39:39
Speaker 4: their jobs.
39:39
Speaker 3: I guess my only conclusion to all of this is, yes,
39:42
Speaker 3: I acknowledge how important it is to get the right owners,
39:44
Speaker 3: But how on the world do we handicap that? Yeah,
39:47
Speaker 3: and why should I be worried that there's cool interest
39:52
Speaker 3: in the Seahawks at the most exorbitant price ever asked
39:56
Speaker 3: for in an NFL franchise sale. Lower damn price if
40:00
Speaker 3: you want more people interested. We don't care what it
40:03
Speaker 3: sells for. We're not getting any of it. You getting
40:06
Speaker 3: any of it? No, you're getting a piece of it.
40:08
Speaker 4: I checked.
40:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not getting a piece of it. So lower
40:11
Speaker 3: the price. Let's drum up more interest, and then let's
40:15
Speaker 3: have the Allen people trust them to do the right
40:17
Speaker 3: thing and sell it to the right people that are
40:19
Speaker 3: gonna let John and Mike run the show and they
40:21
Speaker 3: just stay in the background. Yeah, how about that?
40:23
Speaker 5: Yep? Can we do that?
40:24
Speaker 2: Yep?
40:24
Speaker 3: All right. Coming up next, Alissa Charleston Smith is going
40:29
Speaker 3: to join us. I hope she's not annoying, really do.
40:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, she really bugs you all the time.
40:37
Speaker 3: I mean because she really comes across as a great person.
40:40
Speaker 3: I hope she doesn't ruin my perception of her. So
40:43
Speaker 3: we're going to talk to her next on Sports Radio
40:45
Speaker 3: ninety three point three KJRFM.
