• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Wisconsin, and welcome to the huddle. It's time
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: to talk about the teams you love with the guys
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: you love.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: That's us. Boys, that's us.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Watch us on YouTube.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Build content.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Just search Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: You are looking live.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Now, gather around because it's time to huddle up.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: We know exactly what we got to do. All right?
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Let's go out and kick some tape. All right? One, two, three.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: We got some big plays coming.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: What the hell's going on out here? Yellow Weasel. We're
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: calling the plays, all right? It is time. Who do
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: you think you are? With Drew Olsen. When he spoke,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: he commanded your attention and he commanded your respect.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Bill Schmidt.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: That son of a gun is thick.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: And Armin Sarian.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Daddy Sarian. Welcome to the huddle.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Oh, baby.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: The Huddle, Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin, coming at you, 920 Milwaukee,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: 1070 Madison, iHeartRadio app, X, Facebook, and YouTube for the streamers.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: I like the little side comments with the streamers. They
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: have their own conversation going during the show. Oh, it's awesome.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: We like that. NicoletLaw.com, talk and text line never closes, 877-794-1973.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: It's Tuesday. There's no Brewers game. We can all relax.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: This evening, maybe if you want to avail yourself of
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: the Guardians and Rays game two, kind of a must-win
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: for the Rays now. You don't want to go down
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: to 2-0 and have to go home. Did you lose
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: the Rasmussen start as well? That was kind of a
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: big deal. That was the Guardians method, and they survived. But, man,
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: it makes it tough on yourself. A little easier to
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: lose the first two in a seven-game series, but we'll
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: see what the Dodgers have to say about that. We'll
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: see if the Dodgers can Recover. It's never ideal. What
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: was that number? 83%. Oh, I like that number. 83%
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: of teams, they have a 2-0 lead go on to win.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: And I would like this series, Drew, to go as
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: long as possible. Yeah, maybe one or two of those
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: games go on 12, 13, 18 innings. And the Brewers
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: have never had a 2-0 lead ever in a seven-game series,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: which is very interesting. It dawns on me that tomorrow
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: is game three, and then game four, We're having our
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: pregame party known as the Thursday Night Huddle at Pottawatomie
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Sportsbook in the annex. Yes, sir. I mean, yeah, on
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: the screens, I can imagine it will be Brewers, Dodgers,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: and then, oh, over here also, we'll have Seahawks-Broncos, which
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: is a pretty good Thursday night. Not a bad game
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: and a tough one to take a back seat. I mean,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: it will very thoroughly, but that's a really, really good game.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: And again, there's some good games coming up all weekend long.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: The Badgers in UCLA is going to be right there
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: in between game five and game six on Saturday night. Obviously,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: game six on Sunday night, there's a little something going
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: on at the exact same time. Pottawatomie Sportsbook is generally
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: always the place to be. But these, for the multi-screen viewing, because, Drew,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: you mentioned this, I think, last Thursday Night Huddle, so
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I want to give you adequate credit because it was
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: one of my favorite things to hear. You already missed
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: out on Prime Day. You can't get a $ 99 38-inch
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: TV right now. So you might as well go to
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: the Pottawatomie Sportsbook so you can watch both games at
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: the same time.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: It is interesting if you are looking from that perspective
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: that Brewers have moved to a bigger underdog for Game 3.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: A lot of bettors like the Dodgers in Game 3
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: for understandable reasons. They're coming back home. Obviously, it's pretty
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: much a must-win for them. They're going to be motivated.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: What did I mention to you, Billy, earlier? Plus 143.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: It's now moved to plus 150 on the money line
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: for the Brewers. So if you believe in this team
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: and you want a good price... You're getting a better
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: one even better than an hour ago.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: All right. I like the sound of that. Brewers plus two.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: The Dodgers, however, plus 220 in the series market. So
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: the Brewers now a heavy favorite there.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Drew, the most common and easiest take to have on
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: this entire series is sure is nice to not play
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: against superhero superhero Shohei Otani. Yeah, he's definitely like they're
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: talking about sitting him and he is looks lost. He
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: looks he's he's chasing and he's whether it's his knee
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: or his bicep or whatever it is, something's not right.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: When he checks swung yesterday and drop the bat to
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: try to make it look like he didn't go all
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: the way around. I think that's when you know, okay,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: not the same guy. He's a Homer in 24 straight games.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: They just flashed the graphic up tied for the longest
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: drought of his major league career. Yeah. Let's keep things
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: that way. I'm cool. Here's the thing. It's a perfect time.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Timing is everything in life and especially in sports. And, uh, Hmm.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Shohei Itani is not hot. Who's not? Who's hot? Who's not?
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Brought to us by Donovan Jorgensen Heating and Cooling, employee-owned
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: more than 40 years. Well done, well done. Check them out, donovanjorgensen.com.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Shohei Itani, definitely not hot. The Dodgers, not hot. Kyle
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Tucker's double was their only extra base hit in Milwaukee
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: this week. That's hard to believe. I love that sound.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: And they're mashers. Well, again, they had three hits yesterday.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: They only left two guys on base in nine innings.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Their entire offense consisted of of Logan Henderson throwing the
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: ball into right field. You gift-wrapped him their only runs.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: He did.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: I hate to be this guy, too, but then you ask,
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: with that lineup, is that sustainable in L.A.? But this
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: bullpen has been so good.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Again, though, Will Smith, their catcher, is not looking great either.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: He's struggling. They look wounded. It is not about who
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: you play when you play them. Out of the last
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: three years, this is the best time to play the L.A.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Dodgers.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Fantastic point. It really is. You have them also, and
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: this cannot be, again, it's not an excuse, but I
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: do believe it's a firm explanation as to where it
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: goes for them. They've played more baseball than anybody else
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: over the last three years. They're one of, if not
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: the oldest roster in the sport, and they've played more
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: games than anyone else, playing 20-some-odd games in each of
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: the last two postseasons. So you catch them at the
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: perfect time. Brewers bullpen, hot, giving up one earned run
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: in the postseason, 28 and two-thirds innings pitched, one earned run.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: The only earned run is a solo shot that Jake
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Cronenworth hit in the National League Division Series off JoJo Romero.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: 28 and a two thirds innings pitched 26 strikeouts drew
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: in opponent batting average of 137. That sounds pretty hot
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: to me. That's pretty hot. What about also hot as
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: well is Josh Allen. Last I checked, the reigning defending
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: MVP of the game was the other quarterback yesterday, who
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: was also pretty dang good. Matthew Stafford, 40 of 54,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: 383 with three tugs yesterday. But Josh Allen, one touchdown,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: one interception, one rushing touchdown. My man carried it 10
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: times for a buck 21 and a score. James Cook
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: had 111 yards on the ground and two scores as well.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: They ran it for 6.3 a pop last night. And
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen currently leads all of the NFL in rushing touchdowns.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: Amazing.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: With seven ahead of Derrick Henry and Jameer Kim. He's
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: just an alien. I don't know.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: Someone said that last night, so I'm copying what was
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: a coach or something, but he really is. I mean,
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: he looked, Josh Allen is incredible. Stafford played great too,
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: but he looks like one of those guys. It looks
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: like one of those kids that was like two years
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: old and everybody else on the, playground and he had
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: to play all time quarterback, but like you couldn't, he
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: would just constantly run around and just mess with people
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: and fake throw it. Like just, just incredible ability to
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: run when they need to as good as anybody at
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: that position and obviously throw it. And they snatched victory
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: from the jaws of defeat after doing the opposite. Like
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: a few minutes earlier, that was quite a game last
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: night on Monday.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Who's not hot after posting a Tony Snell stat line
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: in the Packers bears game. Montez sweat, not hot suspended
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: two games for violating the NFL's PED policy. Oh boy.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Oh boy.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Come on now. Spend it without thickens. Montez sweat will
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: miss the bears matchup coming up this week against the
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Atlanta Falcons. And then again, their matchup against the new
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: England Patriots in week number seven. Interesting. Interesting. It's very
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: much not hot. Listen, write it up and still couldn't
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: affect the passer anymore. Packers offensive line might be fixed.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Also drew hot. How about Peyton Pritchard to your $ 44
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: million deal with the Boston Celtics? My goodness. That's a
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: lot of coin. There's a lot of coin. And now listen,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Reggie Miller said he's the closest thing to Caitlin Clark
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: in the NBA. So maybe that's worth, maybe that's worth
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: that money. That was still one of my favorite things
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: that somebody has ever gotten dragged for is Reggie Miller
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: getting laughed out of the building for his, what is that?
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Who does her game remind you of? I'd say Peyton Pritchard,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Peyton Pritchard.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Not Steph Curry? No. No, yeah, the sixth man of
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: the year. That should be decent enough, right?
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: Is that as bad as what Lisa Leslie said, layups?
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Is that what you're going to work on?
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: That would be it. Yeah, that would be just about
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: the same way. And finally, in the not category, my
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: boy Harrison Mevis, the thicker kicker. Thicker. is cut here today.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: John asked about that Curacao on the YouTube. He's gone.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: He's gone. Blake Grupe signed off the Jets practice squad. Well,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: that's a good idea.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure the Jets have multiple Hall of
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Fame kickers sitting around their practice squad.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Where are Anders Carlson and Lucas Haverset? Because we're reaching
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: the point of the season where their phones are going
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: to start ringing. That's a great question.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: You're talking about the all-time field percentage leader in Packers history,
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Anders Carlson, I believe, still has that number.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Okay. And Haversick has the longest kick. Yes, how about that? Well,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: our standards have changed. Yeah, well. Billy Giffey, I don't know.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: I'm looking here. I do not have anything on Lucas Haversick.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Our Brewers' obsession has, you know, it's helped a lot
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: of things. It's helped camouflage some things like Trey Smack's
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: bad Sunday. You know, the fact that the Packers won
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: that game, Trey Smack missing two field goals and an
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: extra point. Now, Cairo Santos also missed a kick, so
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: maybe it was something in the air, the wind, current
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: swirling that we didn't notice. Something was weird. Missed the trip, too.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: But we went from not worrying about Trace Mack to
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, all right, now we're back to
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: worrying about Trace Mack. Yeah, back to him being in
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: the not category. And I don't love that being the case.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Matt LaFleur did say, hey, man, he's doing the right stuff.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: He's practicing there at least once a week. Well, maybe
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: three times a week. Maybe we kick in there a
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: few more times. I don't know, Drew. Maybe the wind
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: was doing something more on... Sunday than we could fully
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: understand or grasp up in the press box because it
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: was interesting. Ryan Longwell and Mason Crosby have talked about
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: that in the past, about how sometimes when it doesn't
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: look like it's windy, it's still windy and the ball
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: can be pushed.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: Field goals are one thing, but you've got to have
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: your extra points.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. We've got to have those.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: And the one field goal took a weird double hook.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: It had some wild screwball, curveball, slider English.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: A little R.A.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Dickey style to it. It came back, then went back.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: I was like, how did that happen? So who knows?
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: That sounds like a rap song. Yeah, it does. Came
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: back and went back. Let's hit the hook on that.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: Maybe I'll chat GPT some more lyrics like I did
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: for Downtown Girl.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Remember that one? That's a throwback to the morning show.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: That was some of your best work, yeah.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: The thing is, you're glad you didn't need his best performance.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: You didn't need any performance from him in the way
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: you dominated the Bears. You're thankful it was that game.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: But obviously, that's not something you want to start becoming
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: a problem again for the Green Bay Packers.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: You don't want to worry about it. And we didn't talk,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: maybe it was windy because some of the punts were booming.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: I was going to say, what was that, a 70-yard
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: punt off the foot of Whalen? 70, 75. Oh, Danny
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: had a good one there. Whalen, like, yeah, insane. And
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: it was a weird catch by Raymond. I figured it
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: was just the shadows creeping in off the Murphy suites
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: is what it ended up being. But either way, it
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: was an interesting day for kicking there. And yeah, I
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: don't love that that's back onto the conversation table. But
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: conversing in Green Bay, coordinators today, I would assume we're
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: going to get something from Micah Parsons coming up because
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: he's going to be ramping back up into practice coming
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: up this week. I wouldn't be surprised to be standing
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: in front of a slew of microphones and cameras tomorrow. Yeah,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: they might want to hear from him. That's car wash day.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: He might actually be. available. And with this group and
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: with this team coming in, I think he's definitely going
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: to be a piece of it. The final one here, Drew,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: for who's hot, who's not. I don't know where this
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: one falls under, so I want you to be the
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: judge jury on it. The Hobart Lawrence Police Department just
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: posted that they will not release Josh Jacobs' evidence at
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: this time because according to a statement given to Peter
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: Bukowski of The Leap, who got the letter back from
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: the Hobart Police Department, The parties involved planned to legally
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: block its release. So through different restraining orders in ways
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: to be able to block the release of the video,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: they are not going to put it out right now.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: We're coming up on week six. That's when we all
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: kind of believed would be the day or the time
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: where Josh Jacobs would then get taken off of the
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: commissioner's exempt list and then suspended for a six game timeframe.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: I still don't believe he's playing until they say that
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: video though. But how can they, and if the video,
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: if it seems to me like it's never coming out,
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: so no one's ever going to see it and he's
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: already sitting, it could be a lawsuit.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, there will be lawyers. There would be a
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: lot of lawyers and park Avenue's got good lawyers for sure.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: But it's, it's getting to the point where the industry
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: standard seems to be six games for some. It seems
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: like it was okay. Disorderly conduct and damage to property.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Anything more than six seems like it might be excessive.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: And again, if the video was worse, then it would
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: have been more of a charge. I don't know. I
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: tend to believe the exact same thing. I would be
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: fascinated to see if we don't hear anything by the
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: NFL this time next week, this time Tuesday, because you'd
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: assume that they'd be letting him be on the practice
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: field next week, Tuesday. And then how long does he
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: need to ramp up? I think you give him the
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: ball and let him run. I'm giving him the ball
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: and let him run. Marshawn Lloyd, congratulations. You did a
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: great job. Thank you. Thank you very much. Kind of
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: like a senior pitcher on a college baseball team. Coach
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: is going to keep running him out there. If he
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: blows it out, he blows it out. Yeah. But it's
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: like put him out there because he's probably his last
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: year in Green Bay. Yeah. We're going to juice that
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: orange as long as possible. Squeeze it and see how
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: much you can get out of it. That will be highly,
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: highly interesting. All right. We are rolling along. We got

• 15:42
  Speaker 2: might be a little controversial. 420, what are you high?
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Because I just... It's one that personally I don't understand
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: the frustration to. There's a lot of things we can
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: be upset about in this world. How Jason Kelsey is
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: talking about the Philadelphia Eagles is one I don't understand.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: New York Post fired this one up. And the Philadelphia Inquirer, Drew,
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: did an interview with longtime ESPN producer Jeff Dufain. Dufain. That...
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: They're getting a lot of hate and a lot of
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: heat over this weekend because Jason Kelsey was on the
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Eagles call and said, we, he was saying we way
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: too much. And Jeff, the producer did say, we've been
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: trying to get the, we out of him. He admitted
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: adding that professional athlete transitioning the booth. I have a
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: common mistake. This flared up a couple of weeks ago
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: while him and McAfee were on the field during Monday
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: night countdown, they were literally saying, In the, almost in
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: the huddle of the Eagles warmup. And he said, you know,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: this is where we would look here and you drop the,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know that I can get mad about much
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: drew that people can get that angry about.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: The guy is a damn near first ballot hall of
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: famer played his entire career. There won a title there.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: If we're going to be upset about him saying we
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: maybe listen to the 99% of the other stuff that
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: comes out of his mouth, which is pretty good. They're
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: in the booth. Yeah, I don't. I get more mad
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: when civilians say we and stuff like that. Like me,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: I've done it many times. Okay, so that's perfect because
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: that's the first story here. He goes, we belongs in
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: the stands, not the booth. Well, I disagree kind of
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: in that way. I can see why he's worried about
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: turning off. the other fan bases are Cowboys fan boy.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Cause we know, like we don't, we don't know that
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: he spent his career with Philadelphia. So it's like, but
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: my thing that ESPN is like, why can then Michael
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Wilbon cheer for the Cubs? Totally spot on. Like I
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: told you guys a million times, I'm old enough to
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: when you were neutered and castrated as a fan, the
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: day you started working in the business, I once walked
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: into the newsroom at the Old Milwaukee Journal with a
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Brewers t-shirt that they gave away and I got it
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: in the bleachers on a giveaway. And they made me
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: go home and change because you couldn't wear that. Like
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: you could wear it if you worked on the news
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: side because you didn't cover the Brewers part of it.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: But I was shamed and I couldn't do it. That
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: standard was there. Bill Simmons kind of broke that wall
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: down by openly rooting and he became the sports guy
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: and it seeped into... coverage and now we have fan
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: blogs and stuff like that. And it's evolved to where
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: there are still like Stephen, a Smith gets to cheer
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: for the Knicks.
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: But all the time, is it because those guys aren't
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: game analysts and he was a game analyst?
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: It shouldn't matter. It shouldn't matter. But I think they're
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: old head like Perlman. And I talk about that, that,
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: that wall crumbled in it. And we're standing on the
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: side of the road like that Indian in the, the don't,
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: the don't litter commercial with a single tear, like ironized
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Cody with a single tear rolling down our cheek because
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: it's like, Oh, see, But it is what it is,
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: and Jason Kelsey should be exempted from that, at least
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: for a while. He'll eventually do it. I'm with you
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: on that, yes. This is the same page. It's the
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: other side of the coin. Brewers fans telling me that
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: Joe Davis isn't emotional enough. What's he supposed to do,
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: rip his shirt off for a third-inning homer? He's been fine.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: He's been fine.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: We just aren't satisfied when it's not our guys. You
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: aren't satisfied because you know he worked.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: And you guys, I'm old enough to remember when people
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: said the same thing about Wayne Larrabee when he came out.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: He still worked the Bears the first couple years. He's
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: still a Bears guy. No, he's a professional broadcaster. And
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: actually grew up a Packers fan. No, I saw Boog
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Shambi's call of that. Now, Boog Shambi is playing it straight, too,
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: and his Cubs are done. And yes, he's on the
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Cubs side of the Brewers-Cubs rivalry, but he's playing it straight.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: He didn't get that excited about a third-inning homer either.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: It's game-tying, but it's... Not the ninth inning. It's the
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: time of the game. And Book's call of the cheerio walk-off,
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: you would have known he's the Cubs voice. It was
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: a great call. It was a great call. And you
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: just got to get out of your own head because
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: everything's filtered. Like, Joe Davis isn't getting excited. He hates
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: the Brewers. He likes the Dodgers. Last year, it was B.A.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: B.A.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Got excited. Did he not get excited about Otani's call?
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: And last year, I'm so mad about the Hernandez-Homer. Mike
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Breen with the Knicks. Earlier in this, the Dodgers fans
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: last year were saying that BA was for the Brewers.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: It's what you want to hear. You're filtering it through.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: And if you just can divorce yourself or turn the
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: sound down and sync it up and listen to Lev.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Because I think they know fans are getting mad about
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: that all the time.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: And I've talked to these guys. I've talked to Matty
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: about it because Matty's been doing national games for years.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: You just can't win. They walk that line. And there's...
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: It's always going to happen. Joe Buck for years. What
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: was his Twitter? Joe Buck is the one that I
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: always hear of. Joe Buck's Twitter thing was... I hate
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: your team. No, he's like, I don't hate any teams
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: except yours.
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: Except yours. Exactly, yeah. It's funny because there are a.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Lot of fans... Joe Buck did the World Series for
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: years and people thought he was a Cardinals guy and
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: he couldn't possibly... Play it straight. And one of the
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: first World Series he probably called was when the Red
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: Sox sweep the Cardinals, right? In 04, I would assume
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: that was probably one of the first ones he ended
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: up calling.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: It does make me feel good, though, because the other
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: thing I come up with when I always think about this,
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: and I hear fans talking about it, the thing I
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: think to myself all the time is, why do you care, too?
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Even if they work, it's secretly rooting. Who cares?
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: It doesn't change the enjoyment of it. Does it affect
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: you that much? And then I'm thinking maybe it does.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: It makes you feel good because maybe fans care about
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: broadcasting calls that much, that it has their experience that much,
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: where they really care that they have to be liked
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: by that broadcaster. Because to me, it's like... I don't,
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: if my team last night, it wouldn't have affected me
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: if Joe Davis was excited or not. I just don't,
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: I would care about my team winning, but Hey, you
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: know what? Maybe, maybe broadcasters are more important than I realized.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: It also just cracked. Davis did a pretty good call
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: on the yellow shit. The yellow shit was really, really good. Really,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: really good. He went to Beloit college. He went to
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Brewers games during school. Like he might have a little
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: piece of him. That's you know, 100%. It's not his
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: fault that he was on the bad side of the
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Pio-Buck rivalry. He probably never won that thing. But there's
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: a lot to it. I can't fathom how you get mad.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: All of these guys calling the game, I almost can
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: hear and get why you'd get disappointed. This guy played...
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: a dozen years and won a championship with this team.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: I will say, if he was an analyst in the booth,
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: you can't refer to a team as we. And Troy
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Aikman's never referred to the Cowboys as we. He's the
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: best at it. He's criticized them a fair amount. But
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: if you're in the booth, but if you're doing the
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: inside the NFL thing, the idea that People who are
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Commanders fans or Giants fans or anybody who hates the Eagles.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: A lot of people hate the Eagles, I guess. Anybody
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: who's lost a Super Bowl to them. I get it.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: But you know it's baked in, right? Plus, he'll lose
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: that the longer he does it, the more he'll lose that.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: And I'll be honest. I think it's potentially setting up.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Jason Kelsey is going to be the Monday Night Football
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: guy coming up next year. I mean, Aikman's contract is up.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: They already announced that they've signed an extension for Joe Buck.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: They haven't for Troy Aikman. Joe Buck was at this
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: certain super high-fashioned wedding this past year, and maybe that
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: guy's going to retire, too. There's some belief in the
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: sports media Marchand world that it will be Joe Buck
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: and the Kelsey brothers coming up next year in the
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Monday Night Football Bowl. I could absolutely see that, obviously
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: because Travis will draw some eyeballs from the Swifties, but
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I could also... Somehow they'll shoehorn McAfee into that booth, too. Drew,
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: he's calling games. Yeah, 100%. They're trying to find a
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: way to have him do that sideline cast on the
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: I know. The NFL doesn't let anybody on the sidelines.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine how that's going to go over in
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: Park Avenue. Good luck. That's going to be a fast one.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: ESPN and the NFL are kind of the same entity
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: these days. Oh, that's right.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, wait.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Who's running that place? It's basically merged. Like a Spider-Man meme.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Speaker 0 5. Yeah. Sorry. No, go ahead. My bad.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: My bad.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: There.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: I want to get a couple of comments in on
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: the YouTube CJ. I'm more just don't like Joe Davis's voice. Well,
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: that's tough.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: I can't help you there. It's a pretty standard. It's
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: going to be kind of locked in.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Good broadcasting voice though. The next Vikings Packers game.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: We need Armin and Paul Allen on the broadcast to
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: go that direction.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: This is Mike Witt.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Listen, yeah, I would love to take that job. I
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: don't think they're giving it to me, but I'll take it. Now,
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: what about that, Billy? Would that be too much?
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: I'd pay big money to hear a crossover broadcast where
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: PA did the game with... Larry McCarron. That would be great.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: And Bursich did the game with Wayne Laird. I'd pay
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: big money for those calls just because of how much
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: both color guys do openly root for the team, but
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: also in very different ways. Larry, very eloquently, with a
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: couple of good.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, the moans I think would go swimmingly with PA,
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: but I do think Wayne would get a little, would
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: get into it with Bursich on some of these calls.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: It'll be phenomenal back and forth. That would be. And
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: it made me think of, this is the broadcasting nerd
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: in me.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: Drew didn't years ago, chick Hernan and Johnny most call
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: a game together as like a gimmick for an all-star game.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: The Celtics and the Lakers guy. Not that I recall.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: Maybe I'm imagining, but I'm going to try and look
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: that up now. Because that got me fired up thinking
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: about that moment. That would be great, a crossover. Can
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: you imagine that?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: That would be epic. This also might be a front-runner
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: or insider for What Are You High? Jason Mackey covers
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh Pirates for SN Pittsburgh and 93.7 The Fan.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: He said, in Oakland to listen to the Game 7
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: of the 1960 World Series. There's like 500 people sitting
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: here listening to the audio replay. Armin, that would be
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: appointment listening for you. There's no way that there's anybody
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: under the age of 60, I think, from this video
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: that is being shot. Armin would be breaking the average
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: age of that listening event. I have to agree with you.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: I can't deny that. Can't deny it. Yeah.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: The 1988 All-Star Game in Chicago for ABC Radio.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: They did the game together. Okay. So there's your precedent.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: I knew it. I knew there was some highlight out there.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: They're starting to do that. They did that. Yes. They're
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: starting to do that a little bit in baseball, too.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: The Peacock ones. On the national games, the Peacock games.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: I have an analyst from both teams. It's cool. Dilley
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: did one. Rock did one with that opening day in
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: New York. Did the opening day one with, what was it,
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Girardi and Joe Buck? Girardi and Joe Buck, yeah. It
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: was cool. The radio one would be sublime. As much
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: back and forth as you have to have on the
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: radio side to get those guys together. that would be
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: a good time. It'd be awesome.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: I feel like it'd be a lot of passive-aggressive stuff, too,
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: talking about their team and our team.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Correct. And that's what we'd be there for, Armin. Yes,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: that's what I'm talking about. Again, the Joe Davis hate,
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: I get it, but you're in your own head. He's
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: calling it straight. They're just doing the game. I got
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: a much bigger problem. He's not really rooting for the Dodgers.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's not really. You're just hearing it. I
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: love his calls. I cut all those. I love his calls.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: I got a much bigger problem with John Smoltz than
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: I do Joe Davis. Yes, exactly. I'm with you there.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: I'm not a Smoltz guy. I would definitely have more
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: of a problem with John Smoltz than I do Joe Davis. Well,
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: last year there were also people getting after Ron Darling.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Who's with B.A. right now. I guess we're always going
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: to complain, but Ron Darling's a tough listen. B.A. will
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: tell you, you know, Ron Darling, he's good and he's
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: not slanty. He wasn't against the Brewers last year. He
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: didn't have a dog in the fight when they were playing.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: I didn't think slanty. People hated him. Solid. People hated McCarver.
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's just the people hated John Morgan.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Only Dion or other people. You're a real man, Dion.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: No, I just think that that's how we get when
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: it's familiarity. After a while, you hear the voice too much.
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: And that's part of the thing with baseball is you spend,
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: there are more games and you spend them with your
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: local guys. And then in football, it's all national people.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: And you get Joe Buck. It's actually, as it turns out,
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: for the Packers all those years when the fans were
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: bitching and moaning about Buck and Aikman, it's actually a
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: privilege to play those games in that time slot. It
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: means you're a good team. Yeah, Mark Murphy one time
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: said it. If you're not in that time slot, what
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: are you? What are you doing? Playing at noon? A
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: bleepy team. Yeah. Playing at noon on Sunday with announcers
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: you don't even know. Or are you getting Jonathan Villama
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: every week? Tell me in the text line. I don't
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: know if you guys read this. That would be a
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: rough existence. Listen, I thought Chris Myers was the bottom barrel.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: You get Chris Myers and Jonathan Villama on that crew
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: again for another Jets game.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: Bring back out, bring back Pell Moss, Tommy and Stalas.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: He's Curt Schilling. Let's talk about smolts. Old man, old man, man,
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: yelling at a cloud.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Excuse me. He's Curt Schilling with a better PR team.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: He fired it up a couple of different times yesterday
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: where I think on three separate occasions, or maybe it
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: was game one. He just said, you know, the starter
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: that goes longer, I think he's going to have a
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: chance to win the game. Speaker 3 I do understand.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: We have, we got a shtick. I do understand. We
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: got one thing to go with, but it is 20, 26, right?
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: It's not like he's saying anything wrong. Like his analysis
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: is not wrong. It's just for me, it's like, I
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: tweeted this. shameless plug, shout out to my Twitter account,
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Ed Arman, sorry. I said, if he was at a party,
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: no one would want to congregate and be in the
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: same room as him.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: You just avoid him. I mean, it's just, I don't
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: want to hear that guy talk anymore. You know what
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: I mean?
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: I don't want to be mean to him because he's
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: got a job I'll never have, but I don't think
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: he's like, whatever he's saying isn't wrong, but it's like, yeah,
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: I guess someone can actually, okay, good for you. I'm
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: just going to stand over here while you talk about that.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: You know, that's just kind of.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: The way I feel. Hey, Derek and Whitewater, I think
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: this crew has been fair. Let's go, Derek. Let's go, Derek.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: And thanks for checking in. That's a really good barometer.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: And thanks for being with us here in the afternoon.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: That's true. Derek and Whitewater didn't know if he was
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: going to be here. able to. Didn't know. There have
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: been a lot of folks that we thought were going
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: to be potentially on the fence of being able to
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: join us in the afternoon. Early 5 o'clock clubbers being
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: able to be happy hour huddlers. Very excited to be
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: able to get that. I love getting as many of
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: these guys in here as possible because... We need to
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: be able to know that, listen, the water's still fine
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: up here. Absolutely. Unnamed in 262.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Hey, I used to be a Marquette manager. Can I
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: say we when I watch? No, you say we are.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: Did you like that?
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: M-U. Actually, that's a tough job depending on what coach
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: you work for. I knew a manager that was a
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: Tom Crean manager, a classmate of mine in our dorm.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: Not an easy job.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: So that one was tougher than Buzz? Oh, I can't
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: imagine Buzz is any easier. Don't get me wrong. Buzz
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: probably was very demanding as well.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine having to send out all those letters
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: that he was writing? Wild.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, you probably had to park their cars, do all kinds.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: I don't even think letters is the worst of what
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: they probably had to do. I'm sure the job of
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: a manager, that type of, with those coaches. Diamond Dave,
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: I don't have a problem with Joe Davis. I can't
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: hear him from the stands.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Well, Dave, I don't know. You're in those stands all
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: night long. I don't know how you can hear much
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: because it did seem louder yesterday than most of.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: It does feel like it'll be levels to it. Each
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: round might be a little bit more. Maybe the World
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Series will be a little different. The high fashion crowd,
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: high price crowd. But it did seem like that Yellich
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: crowd pop, that ball bounced off the scoreboard yesterday, Drew.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: That's about as loud as I've heard that play.
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: I also think it is funny when you hear of
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: an analyst on a broadcast for a team that just lost.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: I even think about when we watch the replays of
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: the The 82 ALCS, the Brewers had just beaten the Orioles,
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: and Earl Weaver's on that call, on the ALCS call.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: We just beat them. You think people might feel a certain.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: Way, like he's going to be bitter or he's going
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: to maybe go the other way because he wants to
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: make himself look good that we just lost to a
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: great team.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's interesting, but in the end, it
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: doesn't affect my happiness. The whole idea, that predated, well,
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: first of all, social media and everything, but it predated the...
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: TV critics. Like there weren't like sports media critics. They
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: didn't care as much. And there wasn't a Richard in
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: the world. They really weren't back then. Yeah. That kind
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: of came about, I'm going to say like seven, eight,
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: 10 years after that, like that was when that was
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: when that first kind of, yeah, I guess mid to
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: late 80s. So it was a couple of years after that.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Then you started to see people talking about production and
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: announcers and stuff. It wasn't, it's now an industry. There
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: was awful announcing. I was going to say there's big
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: time blogs about it. Today for years, what writing about,
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: you know, the, the TV industry and announcers. I think
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: Rudy was the, the guy that Joe Buck was talking
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: about in his, his book. And I do, I love
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: that part where he said, I'm just racing to be
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: able to go and read this review. And then I
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: couldn't wait to throw the thing in the garbage. They
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: started shaming me right out of the gate. Mike went
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: on YouTube, Gus Johnson to do the World Series. Zach Centurio, unbelievable.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: That would be a live call. That was kind of
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: a Stephen A through. That wasn't good. Yeah, it was
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: more of a Stephen A. You'd have to say, Max
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Muncy from Burbank, California. Right, it was Kyle Lowry from
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: East Philly. That was the one that blew everyone's top off.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: That's right. Oh, my goodness. He did Bucs games. Can
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: you remember? I mean, I imagine that. That was wild.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Shout out to our friends at Happy Place, Rob and Chris.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: Use the code HUDDLE or the HUDDLE. I'd say HUDDLE's easier.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: HUDDLE's probably the easiest one. Why type three extra letters?
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: HUDDLE for 25% off with free shipping. You are in
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: the huddle Fox sports radio, Wisconsin. Drew, Billy and Armin.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: It is a time for closing ceremonies in this edition
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: of the huddle. And we do that with our current
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: electric superhero of the day. There are plenty of candidates. Yes,
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: there are because there were a lot of heroes in
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: the Brewers victory over the Dodgers yesterday at American family field.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: And I mean, I guess we could give a nod to, uh,
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: the gentleman in Cleveland as well. And, uh, Josh Allen,
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: there's a couple of guys that would be worthy candidates.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Jose Ramirez, Chase Slaughter would have chance, but no, there
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: is a, there's one that stands out above the rest.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Our current electric superhero by acclimation today is go. Oh,
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I didn't, you want, you guys wanted to
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: hear something, didn't you? I was looking at it. It's
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: a high drive to deep center. It's going back. It
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: is gone. And it's tied again. Contreras knew it.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: William Contreras is our current electric superhero of the day.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Callcurrent.com is the website. Superheroes on the van, superheroes inside.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: The text, check them out at callcurrent.com. Armand, I'm sorry
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: to interrupt you, whatever. No, I'm sorry. You're going to
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: laugh at me. I got an alerter.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: I saw the posts from the American Family Insurance Amphitheater
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: that they announced yesterday. The Matchbox 20 concert next August
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: for their 30th anniversary.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God. Well, we're sorry to interrupt you on
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: that massive moment for you. I was like, what?
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: You know, like a squirrel. I saw a Matchbox 20
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: concert in Milwaukee announced.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: My apologies. William Contreras, Drew, not only hit that big
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: home run yesterday, he had a three-hit game, and Adam
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: McAlvey putting out our superhero of the day. Now on
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: game two of the NLCS, there are five-plus players with
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: multi-hits in a postseason game. In Brewers history, it's happened
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: once before. Game one of the 1982 World Series where
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: Paul Molitor had a five-hit game. Yeah, that was pretty amazing. Again,
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: you roll up. What did they win? 10-0 that game?
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: I believe so. Yeah. Yes. You roll up, win 10-0
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: in game one of the World Series. Dominated. Your Hall
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: of Famers dropped nine combined hits with you out having
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: a four-hit game in there as well. Yeah, hard to
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: think that you're not rolling through Bush Stadium and celebrating up.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: Ted Simmons in the multi-hit game there. Moore with two
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: hits as well as Jimmy Gantner with a pair. Yesterday,
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: William Contreras had three and then two hits apiece from Terang, Yelich, Pratt,
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: and David Hamilton, who was also a pretty close... Runner
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: up there in the superhero.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: Caldwell.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Caldwell had a complete game shutout, I believe. So, speaking
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: of some of those guys from the 82 Brewers. Yes.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: I'm wondering, like, you know, you've got to believe that
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: if the Brewers return to the fall classic. They'll bring
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: them all back. They'll be bringing those guys back. In fact,
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: I was talking to Tyler Kepner from The Athletic.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: And he said the first World Series he watched as
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: a child was the 82 World Series, and we were
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: talking about it. And he was reeling off the Brewers'
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: starting lineup, and he was telling me all about it.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: I'm like, Dude, there's this documentary called Just a Bit Outside.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: You might want to watch it. You might want to
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: check that out. And he was asking me, I said,
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine them not bringing a bunch of those
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: guys back. I mean, Gorman Thomas and Gantner live here.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: Robin is back all the time, and he's the franchise icon.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Easy choice. But a bunch of them, Simmons is a
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: Hall of Famer. Any or all of those guys should be.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: you know, brought back. Augie's going to be back. Yeah.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: He's always there. He's in there. I would be, I'm
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: kind of surprised Gantner hadn't. Now, Drew, then those guys
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: able to throw out first pitches. Oh yeah.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Like, I mean, Jim Gantner thrown out, Robin Yacht's going
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: to throw out game one. Yeah. Robin Yount's going to
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: throw out the first pitch at game one of the
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: World Series. Multiple guys. That's true. I mean, you could
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: line up a number of them. Listen, there were some
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: people there for game one that thought Ben Sheets looked
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: like he could have given you a couple of innings.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Cecil Cooper. I mean, bringing all those guys back. I mean,
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: the Brewers have done a great job, and they've celebrated
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: that team forever. It would be nice to have another
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: team to celebrate like that. It would be very nice.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: And all due respect to this group of bandits. We're
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: not throwing a parade if we lose the thing. They've
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: brought Nigel Morgan back several times, CeCe Sabathia, Ryan Braun.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Ryan Braun is on retainer and will be. He's there
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: for sure. Had the Brewers come back from San Diego,
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure Braun would have been in the mix
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: for that. Oh, that's a good one. But it's got
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: to be game one of the World Series. I'll say
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: it right now. It's got to be... robin you out
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: throwing the first pitch to christian yelich yeah i think
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: yeah robin yelich is the that's the ball that's i
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: think that's gotta be a battery moment that is the
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: moment you're right that's game one that's the goosebump moment
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: a hundred percent and then all of a sudden right
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: before first pitch big old shot of yuki right there
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: on the jumbo yeah or while they're throwing out the
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: first pitch that's at some point at some point cut
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: to a shot of uh Commissioner Amanda Seelig at his
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: seat will give a wave and let him get an ovation.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: Because Bud can't throw it out, but he's obviously going
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: to get celebrated and rightfully so. That should be the
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: loudest ovation of the day is when Bud Seelig gets
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: panned over to. I do like the fact that we're
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: already booking the game night entertainment.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: I love it.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: I don't want to be in New York, but we still...
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: We've got some work to do.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Job's not done. We've got a long way to go.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: We have to go to LA, guys. We've got them
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: thinking about benching Otani. That's true. This is how on
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: the ropes they are. When you have two old series
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: can change quick. We've seen it. But when you have
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: a team like that, like, Hey, we benched Otani, but
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: Max Muncy had a couple of homers right there. That's
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: the way they roll. One hit and seven at bats
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: for Freddie Freeman. You're You're doing what you need right now.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Keep them down so you get out of town. Now,
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers have come back from deficits before. In fact,
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: they were down. They trailed the Blue Jays 3-2 last
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: year and won, and they were down in Game 7
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: and came back. You have to think about all these things.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, exactly.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: To the Padres a couple years ago. Down to the
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: Padres a couple years ago. Bucs, Nets, Bucs, Suns. I'm
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: not trying to manifest bad things. I'm just trying to
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: stay vigilant. Your logic is not flawed. Do we have
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: to protect our feelings? I don't know.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: You know what?
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: Let's embrace it. We're going to L.A. up 2-0. Come on.
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Embrace the joy right now. If you can get Game 3,
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, that would be... If you get game three,
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: that's over. That's the thing. I mean, this is the biggest.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: So tomorrow is an elimination game for the Dodgers. It
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: kind of, you feel that. As it was for the Padres,
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: you know, when they were down 2-0. When they were
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: down 2-0. And you had a chance to win that game, too. Like,
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: the Brewers are going to have a chance. I don't
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: see them just getting blown out. And that's why last night,
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: especially once Yamamoto got chased. You get him out in
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: the fourth inning. You got to do that. You can't
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: lose that game. I'm with you on that. And it
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: did feel like one where you had to capitalize. And luckily,
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: the game comes down to a bullpen game. You feel
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: pretty confident winning the baseball game. Any game that becomes
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: a bullpen game from here on out, the Brewers are
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: going to have a massive leg up on everybody else.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: That's the thing.
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: It doesn't guarantee the result, but your chances are dramatically increased.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: You're absolutely right, Billy.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: You have the advantage. You just hope it has to
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: come through. Can't say that it fully resonated with me
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: that the Brewers were 6 of 15 with runners in
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: scoring position yesterday. Hitting over 300 with runners in scoring position? Yeah,
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: you're going to win a lot of those games. Well,
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: and the 8th helped. I mean, you get a couple
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: of them in the 8th there, and it's like, all right,
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: now we're rolling. Yeah. It's just all good now. It's contagious.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: It's funny because you just get the withdrawals, and it's
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: going to build. Like tomorrow, we're basically doing a pregame
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: show because we're going to be building towards game three. Yeah,
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: I am scratching a little bit. Bobby Diesel on the 9th.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Bobby Diesel on the mound, taking them out against the
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: always hated but never feared Dodgers. Dan into the 715.
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Be careful, gentlemen. Dan, welcome. Welcome to the afternoon huddle.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: Welcome in. But you will be careful at some point. Otherwise,
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: they go out here, mess around, win game three. We're
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: already booking the vacation. I think where they're going. Take
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: a 3-0 lead. You have to feel that way. Yes,
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: that's fair. Absolutely.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would have to say. I mean, it did
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: happen once. We know about the Sox, but we're not
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: doing all that stuff.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: Man, this is fun. These afternoons are great. It's going
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: to be fun. So awesome having you guys bagging this lot.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Didn't mind the morning, but I miss the first hour
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: every day. This is great. If you missed any of it,
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: check the rest of it out on YouTube. It is
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: nice not being a zombie.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: For sure.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: For sure. And dinner is going to be very good
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: coming up here very soon. You got that right. Giddy up.
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: Tomorrow on the program will be Hot Take Hump Day,
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: as always. We'll rope some people and we'll talk to
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: Hunter Baumgart. We'll rope some people into joining us as well.
