- 0:04Speaker 1: x and YouTube. Having some fun after a great sports
- 0:08Speaker 1: day should be a great sports weekend burst playing the
- 0:11Speaker 1: Dodgers all weekend and uplifting victory last night the game
- 0:14Speaker 1: of the season. Hard to say that there is a
- 0:17Speaker 1: better one, Drew and one that they desperately needed. Man, Like,
- 0:20Speaker 1: I think in the out of the depths of despair,
- 0:24Speaker 1: going to lose four straight games out West and feeling
- 0:26Speaker 1: like this could be the down swell of your season
- 0:29Speaker 1: instead of all of a sudden, you pick up a
- 0:30Speaker 1: game in the standings. Yeah, in about what thirty six hours,
- 0:34Speaker 1: they went from their worst loss of the year to
- 0:37Speaker 1: the best win to the best win.
- 0:39Speaker 2: And I fully believe that that win could have came
- 0:42Speaker 2: against twenty eight other teams and it wouldn't have felt
- 0:44Speaker 2: nearly as good as the one last night. Did you
- 0:47Speaker 2: put together three runs in the top of the ninth
- 0:49Speaker 2: inning when it felt like you're absolutely dead? They bring
- 0:51Speaker 2: in mister Trumpets himself and Edwin Diaz. He blows his
- 0:56Speaker 2: fourth save, gives up three runs. The guy that they
- 1:00Speaker 2: bring in after Vacilla who's been nasty. You end up
- 1:03Speaker 2: getting a couple of hits off with lefties, and some
- 1:07Speaker 2: of the guys that you desperately need to get going
- 1:09Speaker 2: again were a part of it, like Garrett Mitchell. Again
- 1:13Speaker 2: rightfully so, people have said, Christian Yelich, what the heck
- 1:17Speaker 2: are we doing with the bat? Seems like people are
- 1:20Speaker 2: starting to come around to say, William Cantreras, what.
- 1:22Speaker 3: The heck are we doing with the bats? Are they
- 1:24Speaker 3: kidding me?
- 1:25Speaker 2: Garrett Mitchell over the last almost month has had the
- 1:29Speaker 2: worst month of the season. Nice to be able to
- 1:31Speaker 2: see him get a hit with runners in the scoring position.
- 1:33Speaker 2: They go three for twenty eight in the series with
- 1:36Speaker 2: the Padres and then string together four hits on five
- 1:40Speaker 2: singles in three runs in the ninth inning. Small market
- 1:43Speaker 2: rally drew against the big market club in the ninth inning.
- 1:46Speaker 2: That's how you're gonna have to win playoff games. And
- 1:47Speaker 2: nice to be able to see him be able to
- 1:48Speaker 2: do it against that bullpen last night, just so badly needed,
- 1:51Speaker 2: and that offense it looked bleak, and coming up with
- 1:54Speaker 2: that rally at that time, in that situation, in that
- 1:57Speaker 2: place when the Cubs had lost already.
- 1:59Speaker 3: And you want to get a game back. I mean Wow,
- 2:01Speaker 3: what a huge, huge moment.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Struggling Drawing pitched a solid game against a good lineup,
- 2:08Speaker 1: and it was that was good encouraging.
- 2:10Speaker 3: You take that any time from DROW Show.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Yeah, and d show? Is that his name?
- 2:15Speaker 2: I've now heard you drop that twice. Are you trying
- 2:19Speaker 2: to name him that? Or mcfetch happen Army trying to
- 2:21Speaker 2: make it a thing? See the DROW Show, you know,
- 2:23Speaker 2: because it dro drowing.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Oh, thanks for explaining it. I didn't.
- 2:27Speaker 2: I didn't realize that that was yeah the Drow Did
- 2:30Speaker 2: you realize that that prime?
- 2:31Speaker 1: I didn't realize that Holy not quite a literation, but
- 2:34Speaker 1: it doesn't rhyme. Okay, yeah, dang well.
- 2:38Speaker 2: I was also trying to think of I might wait
- 2:40Speaker 2: for Dolph, but I was also trying to think of
- 2:41Speaker 2: something for Zach Bacabol now that he's EBB, you know,
- 2:45Speaker 2: call him home grown or something like that. He likes
- 2:48Speaker 2: Box a little bit better Box. I was going for
- 2:50Speaker 2: the Zach Brown thing, but z Box actually pretty good?
- 2:53Speaker 2: Pretty like that now? Anybody wondering? Was anybody asking online?
- 2:58Speaker 2: I guess we were in knee deep and packers to
- 3:00Speaker 2: really know. Were people mad that they yanked drown four
- 3:03Speaker 2: sends a tella at that moment, because you're right, he
- 3:05Speaker 2: is struggling a little bit. I still think he's a
- 3:07Speaker 2: good arm and still an army he ultimately are gonna
- 3:10Speaker 2: want but yeah, meeing.
- 3:12Speaker 3: Like a fire to put out. They were it was
- 3:15Speaker 3: walk one.
- 3:15Speaker 1: It's like the results though, I mean right, I mean,
- 3:17Speaker 1: my boy, Dan Needles was firing him up and he
- 3:19Speaker 1: was so mad. Oh my goodness, I saw Needles.
- 3:22Speaker 2: I'd better see anybody, but sends in telling that includes Scott, Carl.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Scott.
- 3:31Speaker 3: He said anybody. He said, Oh, so that was funny
- 3:33Speaker 3: to see him fired up.
- 3:34Speaker 1: That was funny, yeah, because.
- 3:35Speaker 2: It wasn't like Drowden was in a bunch of trouble.
- 3:37Speaker 2: He walked pat his But I mean it was just
- 3:39Speaker 2: Framan is still going to be coming up. They they
- 3:41Speaker 2: swing Tommy Edmond around to the other side, but that
- 3:44Speaker 2: lineup just keeps coming at you. You get you got
- 3:46Speaker 2: a guy that makes sixty dollars this year coming off
- 3:51Speaker 2: the hitting seventh and Mookie Betts a surefire Hall of
- 3:55Speaker 2: Famer pinch hitting because he's a sub six hundred or
- 3:57Speaker 2: seven hundred ops guy. Like the Rogers being able to
- 4:01Speaker 2: have their some of their best players have some of
- 4:03Speaker 2: their career worst years and still be enough for that,
- 4:07Speaker 2: uh to be the number one seed. Just it's it's incredible,
- 4:10Speaker 2: what kind of yeah roster they have, dude. It is
- 4:12Speaker 2: just an incredible murderers row and the four months he
- 4:15Speaker 2: hit it into a four running in beach, yeah, exactly
- 4:19Speaker 2: on top of the San Gabriel Mountains. I did see
- 4:22Speaker 2: the stats, like Sensintela had good career stats against him,
- 4:25Speaker 2: so I wonder if that was the impetus of the
- 4:28Speaker 2: change as well and going to him. But the matchup
- 4:30Speaker 2: in theory process, you know, I think he bet like
- 4:33Speaker 2: one twenty lifetime off him or something, so I think
- 4:35Speaker 2: that was part of the idea.
- 4:36Speaker 1: But yeah, and uh oh, you can't take it for granted.
- 4:39Speaker 1: We said dale Hall's like the hidden hero of the
- 4:42Speaker 1: game because he pitched two scoreless innings to keep the
- 4:44Speaker 1: burs you know, and give him a chance. Mcguil comes
- 4:47Speaker 1: in and he's, you know, been pretty nails, and that's
- 4:49Speaker 1: a pretty high leverage situation right there. Massive spot, dude, Mason,
- 4:53Speaker 1: the Dodgers with a one or lead in that against
- 4:54Speaker 1: that crowd. So a great night all around for the
- 4:56Speaker 1: brust time for a little Who's Hot Who's Not? Billy
- 4:58Speaker 1: Brought to us by Donovan Joey Urginson Heating and Cooling
- 5:01Speaker 1: locally owned your experts in HVAC for forty years. Check
- 5:07Speaker 1: him out Donovan Jorgenson dot com. Who do we got
- 5:09Speaker 1: Who's hot? Who's not?
- 5:10Speaker 2: Well? Eric Carroll's hot because I just realized that he
- 5:13Speaker 2: was the all time leader in home runs in Dodger
- 5:15Speaker 2: Stadium before Max Mounsey beat him last night with the
- 5:18Speaker 2: hot one and thirty first home run. I did not
- 5:20Speaker 2: unfamiliar with Eric Carross his full game at that point.
- 5:22Speaker 2: I just knew that big old head and the young,
- 5:24Speaker 2: the strapping land that he was a massive human being.
- 5:27Speaker 3: But that was a try. I remember that.
- 5:29Speaker 2: It was like I think Dan Patrick maybe they were
- 5:31Speaker 2: talking about it a while ago, like who was the
- 5:33Speaker 2: leading you know, Homer and Dodgers. No one could answer that,
- 5:35Speaker 2: like that was one that everyone's at piazza or somebody
- 5:38Speaker 2: like that. Maybe Miguel, you know, I could have fired
- 5:41Speaker 2: out sixty different names. I don't know that I would
- 5:42Speaker 2: have landed on Eric Carross. Good for him, good call.
- 5:45Speaker 3: You remember the old Brooklyn Dodger guys. You know, maybe dude,
- 5:48Speaker 3: Duke Snyder and those guys. But that was that was
- 5:51Speaker 3: a tough one.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that would have fired Duke Snyder up,
- 5:54Speaker 2: but I appreciate you giving me that credit, armin A.
- 5:56Speaker 2: But Max Munsey's one hundred and thirty first home runs
- 5:58Speaker 2: at Chavez Ravine last night that put the Dodgers up
- 6:01Speaker 2: four to makes him the all time leading home run
- 6:04Speaker 2: hitter in the third oldest stadium in baseball as well.
- 6:07Speaker 2: So that's something to be to be celebrated. But luckily
- 6:12Speaker 2: we get to see it and celebrated for Dodgers fans
- 6:14Speaker 2: in a fat l. As the Brewers get to win,
- 6:16Speaker 2: we got to celebrate whenever the Cubs catching Now they
- 6:18Speaker 2: are not necessarily not hot, but they lose. Yesterday, Cavale
- 6:24Speaker 2: for the Nationals six and a third, no hit, balls,
- 6:28Speaker 2: go eight innings, shut them down, strikes out ten Cubs
- 6:31Speaker 2: in the Nationals shut out Chicago's seven to nothing, a
- 6:34Speaker 2: couple of wild pitching performances. Yesterday, the Tigers shut out
- 6:39Speaker 2: the Cleveland Guardians, drew and don't strike out a hitter
- 6:44Speaker 2: in the game.
- 6:44Speaker 1: That is stunning.
- 6:46Speaker 2: They've now got six shutouts this month, fourteen on the year.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Second most in all of baseball, but maybe the best
- 6:56Speaker 2: day of the start of the day came from all
- 7:00Speaker 2: all star Pirates pitcher Braxton Ashcraft, no non starter Paul Skeins,
- 7:06Speaker 2: who was seen on a beautiful Miami beach hanging out
- 7:10Speaker 2: apparently maybe a little bit too much around the midsection area.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Braxton Ashcraft nine innings, three hits, one run. It was
- 7:18Speaker 2: a solo shot by Owen Casey in the ninth inning
- 7:21Speaker 2: in a thirteen to nothing game. He walked one, struck
- 7:25Speaker 2: out ten faced one over the minimum on just eighty
- 7:30Speaker 2: five pitches.
- 7:30Speaker 1: That's wild, just just wadding.
- 7:33Speaker 2: That is a stunning efficient as a maddox on steroids.
- 7:36Speaker 2: Eighty five pitches, k ten and go a complete game
- 7:39Speaker 2: on the road, especially for a guy that I'll go
- 7:41Speaker 2: get you at at racketball, you know, and and the
- 7:44Speaker 2: croquet the next week, you know, Braxton Ashcraft, guy that
- 7:48Speaker 2: doing your taxes and stuff like that.
- 7:50Speaker 3: Yeah, he is going to tell you about the investment.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Should be looking at risks in front of a racous
- 7:57Speaker 2: crowd of eighty two and twenty.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Three see a low deep oat park. I mean, and
- 8:03Speaker 1: uh yeah, and you alluded to it. So we have
- 8:06Speaker 1: to touch on it Paul Skans getting fat, shame. He's
- 8:10Speaker 1: walking on the beach with Livy Dunn and that's that
- 8:13Speaker 1: was impressive.
- 8:13Speaker 2: The impressive part. People were talking about his body more.
- 8:16Speaker 1: I know correct, Yeah, I don't know. That wasn't exactly
- 8:19Speaker 1: where she just got off the set of Baywatch and
- 8:23Speaker 1: looks like she hasn't had a carbon about three years.
- 8:26Speaker 3: It's usually like, I don't know how she's drinking all
- 8:27Speaker 3: the miller lite. I know, but we remained. I looked
- 8:30Speaker 3: like that and drink fans.
- 8:32Speaker 1: But skin's like and there is okay, So I do
- 8:35Speaker 1: remember again, I'm old enough to remember a picture of
- 8:38Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers on a beach with his career and then
- 8:41Speaker 1: he got a little bit more dedicated to sitting Street
- 8:43Speaker 1: and he kind of like he took that one personal.
- 8:46Speaker 1: He didn't look great, trimmed it up a little bit. Yeah,
- 8:48Speaker 1: but the pictures are different.
- 8:49Speaker 3: They are they talk about Pat mahomes body.
- 8:52Speaker 1: I mean, Bartolo Cologne was an effective Big League pictures.
- 8:56Speaker 1: I was gonna say he wasn't.
- 8:57Speaker 3: The model of the pictures are tracking fitness test.
- 9:00Speaker 1: Not many of them are. Jack Sures is pretty well
- 9:02Speaker 1: put together. There's some, but not many like even Verlander
- 9:06Speaker 1: I think has got a little bit of a dad
- 9:07Speaker 1: but done a little bit.
- 9:09Speaker 3: He's had the size he was when he now.
- 9:11Speaker 1: True, I thought he stopped for chocolate cake when he
- 9:15Speaker 1: stopped drinking. That was a big part of me. I
- 9:18Speaker 1: mean that.
- 9:18Speaker 3: Was in a box of cap and crun. I mean,
- 9:22Speaker 3: David Wells famously was there. It's a boomer.
- 9:24Speaker 2: I mean, so you can be you don't have to
- 9:26Speaker 2: have a perfect body to be a great baseball No.
- 9:29Speaker 1: In fact, it's all about being lucy and limber and
- 9:32Speaker 1: getting extension and being you know, having good mobility. It's
- 9:37Speaker 1: not in flexibility. It's not really about the raw strength
- 9:40Speaker 1: and being but skins like it looks better than most
- 9:43Speaker 1: dudes and looks you know, it's for starting pictures. He's okay,
- 9:47Speaker 1: but he's not pitching well. He's lost velocity and people
- 9:49Speaker 1: are gonna jump on people they can just look.
- 9:51Speaker 2: And he's with one of the hottest women. That's always
- 9:54Speaker 2: part of this and that's just part of it.
- 9:57Speaker 1: But that was something though to watch that and culturally
- 10:00Speaker 1: does see people shame him for that. I didn't have that.
- 10:03Speaker 2: I'm really really glad I was on the internet for it, though, I'm.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Really glad I didn't miss it.
- 10:09Speaker 2: I think my favorite part of the AI generated like quadruple.
- 10:15Speaker 3: The only Yeah, those are all funny memes.
- 10:17Speaker 1: We're just rolling down. He's just so good.
- 10:21Speaker 2: The only annoying is for me is it seems to
- 10:22Speaker 2: be this low hanging fruit for sports fans where it's like,
- 10:26Speaker 2: you know.
- 10:26Speaker 3: Guy, what's the guy doing on the beach? You should
- 10:28Speaker 3: be watching film.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Like it's like if you have a bad performance, you
- 10:31Speaker 2: can't live a normal life. Like you know, people always
- 10:33Speaker 2: won't do that about guys like that aren't playing well
- 10:36Speaker 2: and they are doing something recreational or fun, and people
- 10:39Speaker 2: get upset about it, like the headline, and you.
- 10:42Speaker 3: Know it is what it is. It's natural.
- 10:43Speaker 2: But the headline was Skens hits the beach the day
- 10:47Speaker 2: after's velocity dips, like like he's gotta stay inside and cry.
- 10:51Speaker 3: All day exactly. I just don't.
- 10:53Speaker 2: I never ascribed to that as much. It's like guy
- 10:56Speaker 2: enjoying lunch day after he loses. Well, okay, what how
- 11:00Speaker 2: dare you watching film? You should be I think it's
- 11:02Speaker 2: low hanging fruit. It's akin to me to like blaming
- 11:05Speaker 2: trainers for injuries or blaming medical's death.
- 11:08Speaker 3: But it's what we do in sports.
- 11:09Speaker 1: That's what we do. We make I do.
- 11:11Speaker 4: Uh.
- 11:12Speaker 2: I would wonder as you just see more and more
- 11:16Speaker 2: people trying to take shots and enjoy the enjoy the
- 11:20Speaker 2: victories of it. How long does he play? Do they
- 11:23Speaker 2: do they shut him down? Like the velocity drop is
- 11:26Speaker 2: a serious thing for them, But I would wonder if
- 11:28Speaker 2: they would be uh poised to want to push him
- 11:32Speaker 2: to the end.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Of the Year's no injury, you know, but because I.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Mean they were, they had winding their sales around the deadline,
- 11:41Speaker 2: they bought they went and grabbed Luke Weaver, the hottest
- 11:44Speaker 2: name on the market for a closer. There's six games
- 11:47Speaker 2: out of a wild card and they have five teams
- 11:50Speaker 2: to jump. Yeah, that's a tough scene at this point
- 11:54Speaker 2: with what forty games left, especially if Skins isn't skiens right,
- 11:57Speaker 2: like they come him to be otherworldly and he he's not.
- 12:00Speaker 1: This is people are reverse engineering. Did he did he
- 12:03Speaker 1: waste his bullets pitching in the World Baseball Classic, you know,
- 12:07Speaker 1: high intensity innings against Mexico and the Dominican and takes
- 12:10Speaker 1: like four innings against each team, like he was one of.
- 12:12Speaker 2: The only guys that start. Corbyn Carrol. You threw his
- 12:15Speaker 2: name in there. Did you know Corbyn Carroll is Dyton
- 12:17Speaker 2: miss him America.
- 12:19Speaker 1: I really know that. Surprised because he's a good looking dude,
- 12:23Speaker 1: lives in Scottsdale. All right.
- 12:24Speaker 2: I probably got a good shot, got a good chance
- 12:27Speaker 2: to be net in something. But they posted a phenomenal
- 12:30Speaker 2: video of her singing the national anthem and surprising him
- 12:34Speaker 2: at the Diamondbacks game.
- 12:35Speaker 3: He's like, wait a second, what's she doing out there?
- 12:37Speaker 1: Wait a second? She put his hair behind his ears,
- 12:39Speaker 1: like justin Herbert and Maison Beer.
- 12:41Speaker 2: There was no there was no kissy kissy booboo going
- 12:44Speaker 2: on and home play through because again, Corbyn Carroll is
- 12:47Speaker 2: an upstanding member of society. Now we're not got frat
- 12:50Speaker 2: nines like that. We'll save that for the batting cage.
- 12:52Speaker 2: You know who else, Emma Broils by the way, for
- 12:56Speaker 2: your Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin.
- 12:57Speaker 1: That's what I wanted to say. Way to go, guys.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Beat Missouri yesterday and they're one game away for making
- 13:04Speaker 2: it the Wisconsin Williamsport. Ever, and I'm sorry, I told
- 13:07Speaker 2: Mike Heller yesterday was back list on Package Radio Network.
- 13:12Speaker 2: Sorry they beat your record, because his team was famously
- 13:14Speaker 2: two games away from that. Yeah, so I said, they
- 13:18Speaker 2: passed you guys up.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Well, and I'll make sure to dunk on them that way.
- 13:20Speaker 3: I'm gonna be uh.
- 13:21Speaker 2: I got the appearance thanks to a couple of cancelations
- 13:24Speaker 2: to be on the I I Love Monday's podcast later
- 13:26Speaker 2: on today, So I'll make.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Sure to twist that knife a little bit. If he's
- 13:30Speaker 1: like gonna be if the Bay loses, if he's gonna
- 13:33Speaker 1: be seventy two Dolphins and cracking champagne, Mikey Winebar is
- 13:36Speaker 1: gonna go break into the I'm sure they got some
- 13:39Speaker 1: votes sitting around there celebrate with the boys.
- 13:45Speaker 3: Got to be able to toast to it.
- 13:47Speaker 2: But also, if there's gonna be a year that a
- 13:50Speaker 2: Wisconsin team finally makes it to williams Port, it should
- 13:53Speaker 2: be the year that the Brewers are making it to Williamsport.
- 13:56Speaker 2: First Sunday they played the night game against the Braves
- 13:59Speaker 2: Thearren Williamsports.
- 14:00Speaker 1: We got to get somebody there.
- 14:00Speaker 3: I think most peoplen't realize they're doing that. It's a
- 14:02Speaker 3: good poet.
- 14:03Speaker 1: Who's not Who's not? Donovan Jorgans dot Com Donovan Jordanson
- 14:05Speaker 1: Heating and Cooling best in the business. Check them out
- 14:07Speaker 1: for all your HVACT needs. The Brewers. If you're into
- 14:10Speaker 1: the poff, if you go to Fangrafts, come on to Poff.
- 14:13Speaker 1: Are you ready for this? Oh, you're gonna make me pay?
- 14:15Speaker 1: As they said it first in first place, seventy five
- 14:17Speaker 1: and forty seven, by the way, a six to fifteen
- 14:19Speaker 1: winning percentage. By the way, did the what the Rays do?
- 14:23Speaker 1: Are the Brewers best record in baseball? And let me
- 14:25Speaker 1: I think the Rays were off yesterday? Rays are six seventeen.
- 14:28Speaker 1: So the Rays are seventy four and forty six. They
- 14:31Speaker 1: get the Orioles who are so again, the Brewers are
- 14:33Speaker 1: seventy five and forty seven.
- 14:35Speaker 2: Because that includes wild Cord should be super high.
- 14:38Speaker 1: The Brewers poff. By the way, the projected wins for
- 14:41Speaker 1: the Brewers ninety five point nine, so basically ninety six wins,
- 14:45Speaker 1: which will be a game back from last year's finish.
- 14:49Speaker 1: So they've got them going ninety six and uh one
- 14:53Speaker 1: to sixty six. There are odds to win the division
- 14:59Speaker 1: seventy seve seven point eight Cubs right twenty two point two. Okay,
- 15:05Speaker 1: to clinch a bye and finish with one of the
- 15:06Speaker 1: first two top two records in the league fifty nine
- 15:09Speaker 1: point one percent. That's a little better than I thought.
- 15:13Speaker 1: Finishing the wild card twenty two point one, which will
- 15:16Speaker 1: be a massive step down the wild cord better. Yeah,
- 15:19Speaker 1: can make the playoffs ninety nine point nine percent.
- 15:22Speaker 2: Oh, I thought it'd be the ninety sevens or ninety eighth,
- 15:25Speaker 2: but ninety nine point nine.
- 15:26Speaker 1: Ninety nine point nine. And to win the World Series
- 15:30Speaker 1: all the Tostitos according to Fangrafts nine point five percent,
- 15:34Speaker 1: which is better than everybody else except for Dodger, the
- 15:39Speaker 1: Rays at nine point nine and the Dodge Dodgers at
- 15:43Speaker 1: twenty three point six.
- 15:44Speaker 2: Yeah, because the Rays don't have to go through a Dodgers, right,
- 15:46Speaker 2: That's the thing over on the other side, there's not
- 15:48Speaker 2: that team. There's not that behemoth, especially if the Yankees
- 15:51Speaker 2: aren't going to get judged back. And that's maybe the
- 15:53Speaker 2: most underdiscussed topic in all sports.
- 15:56Speaker 3: I want to judge in three time.
- 15:59Speaker 2: MVP is still m a and not sure if he's
- 16:02Speaker 2: ever going to be able to come back. Speaking of
- 16:03Speaker 2: the World Baseball Classic, but uh, those are that's winding
- 16:07Speaker 2: the sales because there has been all down. It has
- 16:09Speaker 2: been very, very sad. It feels very very lonely here, Drew,
- 16:12Speaker 2: and you can't get guys in with runners in scoring position,
- 16:15Speaker 2: and you're getting swept by the Padres, and the Cubs
- 16:17Speaker 2: are increasing decreasing the lead. They're shrinking it down daily.
- 16:21Speaker 2: Seventy to win the division, almost ten percent chance to
- 16:25Speaker 2: win the whole thing.
- 16:25Speaker 1: I'll take that. Everybody on the internet. When Rabel through
- 16:28Speaker 1: the flag last night, the captions, oh my god, he
- 16:31Speaker 1: tossed that like you tossed his wedding ring. When Diana
- 16:34Speaker 1: Rossini comes around, oh.
- 16:36Speaker 2: My, like you tossed that room key off at the Bungalo.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Mike Vrable to his phone when his wife asks him
- 16:42Speaker 1: why Dominos is texting him at three am in the morning.
- 16:47Speaker 1: That phone. The Internet remains undefeated when the New York
- 16:50Speaker 1: Post texts you, we got another drop coming. When we
- 16:53Speaker 1: come back, we will have our current electric sup here today.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Not a tough one. This one's gonna be pretty obvious.
- 17:00Speaker 1: But we're gonna name him anyone who deserves it. You
- 17:02Speaker 1: better believe it. You're gonna name him anyway. Our current
- 17:05Speaker 1: electric superhero is next. You're in the huddle. Fox Sports
- 17:07Speaker 1: Radio Wisconsin. All right, it's time for us to name
- 17:23Speaker 1: our current electric superhero of the day, and this one
- 17:26Speaker 1: was sealed by halftime of the Packers game last night.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Here it is placement made kick end over end to
- 17:34Speaker 1: the uprights, and it is O man I mean with
- 17:38Speaker 1: Buddy despair center cut. Wow, Trey Smack smacks it through
- 17:45Speaker 1: the uprights from deep. The young man who's had a
- 17:48Speaker 1: rough go of it in camp with Bobby Demofsky charting
- 17:51Speaker 1: his missus and everybody te tweeting it in triplicate, made
- 17:57Speaker 1: four field goals last night. Three of them counted. Two
- 18:00Speaker 1: of them were fifty eight yard bombs like that one.
- 18:03Speaker 1: Trace Mack is our current electric superhero the day, brought
- 18:06Speaker 1: to us by Current Call. Current dot Com is the website.
- 18:08Speaker 2: It couldn't have been anybody else. Like a lightning bolt,
- 18:11Speaker 2: like that Current Electric logo. He strikes with that right foot,
- 18:15Speaker 2: now a couple of parts of it. John Coon on
- 18:17Speaker 2: the TV broadcast accurately said, I may have declined the
- 18:21Speaker 2: penalty on the first one. There's the chance I may
- 18:24Speaker 2: have declined the penalty. Take the three points, give him
- 18:27Speaker 2: the credit for the fifty eight yarder, but then to
- 18:29Speaker 2: be able to get another opportunity to kick one even better.
- 18:32Speaker 2: You can't kind of you can't manufacture those opportunities. But
- 18:35Speaker 2: for him to be able to have the pressure moment,
- 18:39Speaker 2: that was the end of the half.
- 18:41Speaker 1: Kyle McCord.
- 18:42Speaker 2: Listen, every Batman, there's a Robin Kyle McCord, a little
- 18:46Speaker 2: bit of a superhero as well being able to lead
- 18:47Speaker 2: that drive.
- 18:48Speaker 1: Jacob Monk smartly.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Not grabbing the ball, letting the official have it after
- 18:52Speaker 2: Will Shepard caught it Drew. They executed that to the
- 18:55Speaker 2: absolute perfect decimal point. I think twelve seconds is the
- 18:59Speaker 2: f salute limit that you could run that play.
- 19:02Speaker 1: They ran it perfectly.
- 19:03Speaker 2: Trace mac knocked it through and Matt Lafleur went full
- 19:08Speaker 2: Allen Iverson defending this cat earlier this week. It's right, guys,
- 19:12Speaker 2: we're talking about prep practice. I understand I was supposed
- 19:14Speaker 2: to be there and leave by an example, who cares.
- 19:17Speaker 1: If he makes it.
- 19:18Speaker 2: There's thirty five hundred people standing here, and some of
- 19:20Speaker 2: them are standing behind a chain link fence.
- 19:23Speaker 1: That is not NFL football.
- 19:25Speaker 2: This one was in front of However, many people paid
- 19:28Speaker 2: to see it at Akercher Stadium.
- 19:29Speaker 3: They stayed for a majority of the time.
- 19:31Speaker 2: But that's a tough stadium to kick notoriously one of
- 19:34Speaker 2: the more difficult spots to kick field goals, and he
- 19:37Speaker 2: booted two big time ones through all of them, right
- 19:40Speaker 2: down the middle.
- 19:41Speaker 3: That was a heck of a night for trace Mack.
- 19:43Speaker 2: And one other thing I liked about it is we've
- 19:45Speaker 2: spent so much time on the nervousness part of trace
- 19:47Speaker 2: Mack and what we're anxious about with him, obviously the
- 19:50Speaker 2: inconsistency in practice, but last night, besides just making the kicks,
- 19:55Speaker 2: was an example of why you're excited about him.
- 19:57Speaker 3: Why they went and grabbed a guy, why you're hoping he.
- 19:59Speaker 2: Can be and send it at that position, is his
- 20:02Speaker 2: just ability to boom those deep ones. And you know,
- 20:05Speaker 2: Aubrey and Dallas, I'm sorry, you're right, Billy has changed
- 20:07Speaker 2: the game.
- 20:08Speaker 3: You talked about. This has changed the game with.
- 20:09Speaker 2: Kickers, Like everybody wants to know if they can get
- 20:12Speaker 2: a weapon. Now that's good from sixty plus consistently in
- 20:15Speaker 2: a time when that was unheard of in this league.
- 20:18Speaker 2: And Aubrey Wayne said it from fifty eight. He was
- 20:22Speaker 2: good from sixty plus last night. So that's the thing
- 20:24Speaker 2: that excites you about what he can do is his
- 20:26Speaker 2: potential to be, you know, special athlete at that position.
- 20:31Speaker 2: He I do, I do struggle with the word transcendent
- 20:35Speaker 2: and kickers. Just that one together is a tough one
- 20:39Speaker 2: for me. But Mason Crosby is the all time leading
- 20:42Speaker 2: scorer for the for the team and a number that
- 20:45Speaker 2: probably will never be beaten, right like that, That's gonna
- 20:48Speaker 2: be a tough number.
- 20:49Speaker 3: To beat for Mason Crosby.
- 20:51Speaker 2: And he started as a rookie who was kicking like
- 20:53Speaker 2: seventy five percent.
- 20:54Speaker 3: Yeah, that's also and they had plenty.
- 20:57Speaker 2: Of time to be able to trust him because the
- 21:00Speaker 2: game like three years doing that before.
- 21:02Speaker 3: Ultimately he made big kicks in championship games for him.
- 21:05Speaker 2: You got to get to the playoffs for Trace Mack
- 21:07Speaker 2: to be able to prove that. We got to get
- 21:08Speaker 2: to the regular season for him to make more kicks
- 21:10Speaker 2: that count. But Drew, it sounds like he's about the
- 21:13Speaker 2: right stuff and the attitude after the game. I'm excited
- 21:16Speaker 2: for people to know and hear it because it seemed
- 21:19Speaker 2: like he wasn't going to get too high and wasn't
- 21:21Speaker 2: going to get too low. Studying at the Jake Bauers
- 21:23Speaker 2: School of Temperament, we heard it last night our Locker
- 21:25Speaker 2: Room Reports brought to us by Potootomy.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Sports Book, the official sports book the Green Bay Packers.
- 21:30Speaker 1: And this is this is mister smack from last evening, Kerry,
- 21:35Speaker 1: pretty good night. I hit the ball.
- 21:38Speaker 5: Well, did anybody kind of warn you in advance how
- 21:42Speaker 5: difficult it is to kick in Pittsburgh?
- 21:47Speaker 4: No, I mean we looked at it. We looked at
- 21:49Speaker 4: we were playing. I mean, Col's played that pit and
- 21:53Speaker 4: he was just there at his past offseason. So I
- 21:55Speaker 4: talked to him about it a bit and talked to
- 21:57Speaker 4: my coach about it. And so I mean, yeah, what.
- 22:01Speaker 1: Was your mindset coming in, Like, how would you settle in,
- 22:04Speaker 1: especially when you look at the yard for your person?
- 22:06Speaker 4: You know, just trust the operation call and Dan do
- 22:08Speaker 4: a great job getting the ball down long enough so
- 22:11Speaker 4: I can see it, and then from there it's on me.
- 22:13Speaker 4: So I just have to trust my operation.
- 22:15Speaker 3: What is that like?
- 22:15Speaker 4: Mindset?
- 22:16Speaker 3: Operation through your mind at that point?
- 22:18Speaker 4: Just trusted let your body take over.
- 22:20Speaker 5: You know? What was it like you hit a monster
- 22:24Speaker 5: kick in the first quarter, there's a penalm, so you
- 22:27Speaker 5: guys get a first round, but the.
- 22:28Speaker 1: End up having to kick again? Was that difficult for all?
- 22:32Speaker 1: After your you think three on the board and it's
- 22:35Speaker 1: a monster.
- 22:36Speaker 4: Every kick is kind of the same I view it,
- 22:38Speaker 4: you know, I kind of try to hit the ball
- 22:40Speaker 4: as best as I can on every single kick. So
- 22:42Speaker 4: I viewed that whatever thirty eight, thirty five, I don't
- 22:47Speaker 4: know how far it was, and the deeper one the
- 22:49Speaker 4: contry does the same.
- 22:51Speaker 5: Tray letterflies afford the game during warm up same as
- 22:55Speaker 5: a game or a little bit higher.
- 23:00Speaker 4: No, just about the same.
- 23:02Speaker 1: You know, tree, you relax, you can kill.
- 23:04Speaker 5: You knows worked out and feel great most the.
- 23:10Speaker 4: Game rows are yeparteam you feel some real leaf after
- 23:15Speaker 4: for worms la that you did. I don't really try
- 23:19Speaker 4: to feel relief in this, you know kind of business
- 23:22Speaker 4: because we always.
- 23:22Speaker 1: Got next week.
- 23:23Speaker 4: We always got to play next week, and uh, my
- 23:26Speaker 4: mind's already switched to the Broncos.
- 23:29Speaker 5: One thing that's kind of stood out and talking to you,
- 23:31Speaker 5: whether it's been in practice where maybe kicks didn't go
- 23:34Speaker 5: your way compared to hear it seems like your demeanor
- 23:36Speaker 5: kind of stays the same.
- 23:37Speaker 1: That changes, But does it give you confidence at all?
- 23:40Speaker 5: That It's like you can come into a difficult place
- 23:41Speaker 5: in your debut and knocked down some you know, a
- 23:44Speaker 5: yard short of a record here at fifty eight yards.
- 23:46Speaker 5: I mean, does it give you anything just kind of
- 23:48Speaker 5: moving forward you can build off.
- 23:50Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I think so. I think it'll get
- 23:53Speaker 4: some confidence. And you know, every day is in your day.
- 23:56Speaker 4: It's just kind of you know, you gotta figure out
- 23:58Speaker 4: what kind of blaw're gonnahit that.
- 23:59Speaker 1: Day, Jordan loved to say it was the highlight of
- 24:02Speaker 1: the night. Matt LeFlore was like all smiles for you.
- 24:05Speaker 1: I mean, does that feel good to have that kind
- 24:07Speaker 1: of support, that kind of excitement around you.
- 24:09Speaker 4: Yeah, And you know they've been very supportive of when
- 24:12Speaker 4: I don't kick well either, you know, in practice and
- 24:14Speaker 4: when I do kick well. So that just kind of
- 24:16Speaker 4: shows you what kind of coaching staff.
- 24:18Speaker 1: And the players we have here. Trace Mac keeping that
- 24:23Speaker 1: even keel not only get too high, not gonna get
- 24:25Speaker 1: too low.
- 24:26Speaker 3: I'm not going to celebrate anything.
- 24:27Speaker 2: I don't feel relief. I don't feel sarady feel any relief. Okay,
- 24:33Speaker 2: I like that, and that's funny. So Trace Mac is
- 24:36Speaker 2: our current electric super here the day. Second place would
- 24:39Speaker 2: be Kyle Schwarber. We're hitting the first at bat home
- 24:43Speaker 2: right into the corn. Celebrate everybody there, in Iowa and
- 24:46Speaker 2: two on the night. Kyle Schwarber is just a machine.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Jake Bauer's opportunity there for the game winner, but a
- 24:52Speaker 2: small market rally drew. Everyone deserves a little bit of celebration,
- 24:55Speaker 2: a little bit of the brewers. There's a graphic that
- 24:58Speaker 2: will warm Arman's cockles. Armin's the historian of the group.
- 25:02Speaker 2: Schwarber hit the home run. And there's a site.
- 25:06Speaker 1: There's an x account at TV Sports Updates that I follow.
- 25:10Speaker 1: It's pretty good. They have a chart here, a little graphic.
- 25:15Speaker 1: The first player to hit a home run in a
- 25:17Speaker 1: non exhibition MLB game televised as part of a national
- 25:20Speaker 1: coverage on and the little hashtag does not include games
- 25:24Speaker 1: shared with other national networks, like the Earliest World Series,
- 25:27Speaker 1: which used to be on more than one network. First
- 25:29Speaker 1: home run hit on CBS as a network was by
- 25:33Speaker 1: Andy Pafco from Boyceville, Wisconsin, Wow Let's Go, who played
- 25:36Speaker 1: for the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Milwaukee Braves. The first
- 25:40Speaker 1: home run hit on NBC in a nationally televised game
- 25:42Speaker 1: Jackie Robinson.
- 25:44Speaker 3: ABC.
- 25:45Speaker 1: First home run was Wally Westlake Bowl Wally. First home
- 25:49Speaker 1: run hit on ESPN was hit by Sam Horn. First
- 25:53Speaker 1: home run hit on Fox by Fred McGriff. Run on
- 25:58Speaker 1: TBS again National package only, not the Braves games when
- 26:01Speaker 1: they were the superstation. Was your VI Tori Albo.
- 26:04Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, good play. First home run hit
- 26:06Speaker 3: on f S one Brian Doser.
- 26:09Speaker 1: First home run on YouTube, Matt Beattie, first home run
- 26:13Speaker 1: on Peacock o'double Herrera, first home run on Apple TV
- 26:18Speaker 1: Jeff McNeil.
- 26:19Speaker 3: How many streaming services as they go?
- 26:21Speaker 1: First home run on Roku was Tyler O'Neill. And now
- 26:25Speaker 1: Netflix because they had that opening night no homers. Now
- 26:29Speaker 1: this this does not count. Miguel Vargas hit a home
- 26:31Speaker 1: run in the All Star Game last month, but that
- 26:34Speaker 1: is not that's not a regular on exhibition game. So
- 26:37Speaker 1: Kyle Schwarber hit the first Netflix home run in a
- 26:40Speaker 1: real game. And then the first Facebook exclusive game was
- 26:44Speaker 1: the Mets Phillies and Ennis Cesspits. Oh yeah, the first
- 26:50Speaker 1: guys to hit home runs on these streaming outlets. I
- 26:53Speaker 1: knew Arman would like that. Yeah, that's a fun list.
- 26:55Speaker 2: And we saw what Prime is going to be at
- 26:57Speaker 2: the Eastern Conference Finals next year.
- 26:59Speaker 3: So we're in a new world. That's why I think
- 27:01Speaker 3: a lotily we're not making it.
- 27:02Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think it's funny people talk about
- 27:04Speaker 2: National TV because a lot of times now national TV
- 27:07Speaker 2: is everything.
- 27:08Speaker 3: Everything's national because you can stream it. But I digress.
- 27:11Speaker 3: Schwarmer is an interesting one.
- 27:13Speaker 2: I always talk about Hall of Fame candidates and we
- 27:15Speaker 2: like to play you know, Hall of Fame monitor, and
- 27:17Speaker 2: I did that after the show yesterday was somebody David Cohene.
- 27:21Speaker 2: I just you know, one of my favorite hobbies is
- 27:22Speaker 2: Billy knows Is. I like to gate keep. But that's
- 27:25Speaker 2: gonna be an interesting one. I used to scoff at
- 27:27Speaker 2: the idea. But he's had this late career surge in
- 27:31Speaker 2: verse where a lot of his best years will come
- 27:32Speaker 2: after the age of thirty, and it'll be interesting to
- 27:35Speaker 2: see if he keeps us up what he can do
- 27:36Speaker 2: it for his Hall of Fame status. He's gonna be
- 27:38Speaker 2: one of the greatest power hitters of the generation too. Yeah,
- 27:40Speaker 2: Like that's the other Yeah, that's the tough thing with
- 27:43Speaker 2: an elongated peak. And also you almost forget of how
- 27:48Speaker 2: he contributed to that World Series. In that Game seven,
- 27:52Speaker 2: he ends up having the first base hit that sparks
- 27:56Speaker 2: the two runs that they get in the was that
- 27:58Speaker 2: the ten inning, right the first extra inning after the
- 28:00Speaker 2: rain delay, and he came off at porn ACL that year,
- 28:03Speaker 2: barely played that year. A crazy, crazy comeback that he had.
- 28:06Speaker 2: So it's wild to see how that team and shows
- 28:12Speaker 2: listen championships you celebrate him because you never know. I
- 28:15Speaker 2: remember immediately following the twenty sixteen World Series, the conversation was,
- 28:19Speaker 2: so all these guys are so young and so good,
- 28:22Speaker 2: how many are they gonna win? There was an idea
- 28:24Speaker 2: it was actually very similar to me to the twenty
- 28:27Speaker 2: ten Packers, where you thought it could be a dynasty.
- 28:29Speaker 2: I don't know that they won another playoff series, did they?
- 28:32Speaker 2: Maybe in seventeen they went back to the NLCS, but
- 28:35Speaker 2: that was it. They lose the wild card round in
- 28:38Speaker 2: twenty eighteen after one sixty three.
- 28:40Speaker 3: That's right, because they lost in the Mets that year,
- 28:42Speaker 3: right in the NLCS.
- 28:42Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the next year they win one playoff
- 28:44Speaker 2: series and that's about it. Well, if I gave you
- 28:46Speaker 2: that whole lineup too, which on would you say was
- 28:48Speaker 2: the moment the Hall of Fame chance it would have
- 28:50Speaker 2: been Chris Brian or maybe Rizzo or maybe even Hobby
- 28:53Speaker 2: Baiez at one point, and here's and here's old college
- 28:56Speaker 2: swar were waltzing in with fifty years.
- 28:59Speaker 3: After they hit to thirty.
- 29:00Speaker 1: By the way, as long as we're we're talking about
- 29:02Speaker 1: first homers on these TV outlets, can you guys win
- 29:05Speaker 1: a bar Bet who hit the first home run in
- 29:07Speaker 1: then Miller Park now American Family Field. It wasn't Richie.
- 29:12Speaker 3: Was it a Brewer? Cincinnati read because the Reds were
- 29:15Speaker 3: always playing.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Us those days. It was a Cincinnati Oh, that's what
- 29:18Speaker 1: I'm saying.
- 29:19Speaker 2: We always were playing the Reds. There were four home
- 29:21Speaker 2: runs in that game. It was not Keng grify j
- 29:24Speaker 2: I'll take like Adam Donner. One of these guys, Garry Larkin,
- 29:28Speaker 2: he scored the first run. Guess he was driven in.
- 29:32Speaker 2: But the first home run by Michael Tucker.
- 29:37Speaker 3: Kyle's dad know that, Michael.
- 29:40Speaker 1: He was a brave Michael Tucker, Dimitri Young, Jeremy Bernitz,
- 29:44Speaker 1: and Richie Sexton hit the first US, the first hit
- 29:46Speaker 1: in American Family Field. The first pitch was thrown by
- 29:48Speaker 1: Well Jeff di Nico or President bush At. The first
- 29:52Speaker 1: hit was by Sean Casey, the mayor the first Brewers.
- 29:54Speaker 1: The first double in the first Brewers hit was Jose Hernandez.
- 29:58Speaker 1: You know who hit the first triple in Miller Park history?
- 30:01Speaker 2: Chad Moeller, No idea, I'm gonna guess bell Yard or
- 30:05Speaker 2: is this is when you can definitely win a bet on?
- 30:09Speaker 2: Jeff Demiko the.
- 30:12Speaker 1: Wow.
- 30:12Speaker 3: I love that. I love that.
- 30:16Speaker 1: It was not in his second and his second start,
- 30:19Speaker 1: on his second start. It was April twelfth. It was
- 30:21Speaker 1: a week later.
- 30:22Speaker 2: So guys, when I worked the store, we had boxes
- 30:25Speaker 2: of extra commemorative first game balls. First game, yes, so
- 30:29Speaker 2: it was the Reds. We had boxes and they would
- 30:31Speaker 2: sell for a dollar. So all these kids that wanted
- 30:34Speaker 2: a souvenir on like cub Scout Day coming in with
- 30:37Speaker 2: these their sweaty dollar bills and stuff.
- 30:39Speaker 1: Harmon. I'm telling you, I think I had five of
- 30:41Speaker 1: those at home. I played.
- 30:42Speaker 2: I played with the mini bat until I was maybe
- 30:45Speaker 2: thirteen that had that opening series of Miller Park logo.
- 30:49Speaker 2: And I know, for sir, I'm almost positive my dad
- 30:52Speaker 2: wasn't at the game. He went and grabbed all of those,
- 30:54Speaker 2: uh discounter rackets. You've got to celebrate all of them.
- 30:57Speaker 2: That's phenomenal. I actually don't know that I've seen I
- 31:01Speaker 2: shouldn't say that. I do know that I went back
- 31:03Speaker 2: in armand sorry and.
- 31:04Speaker 3: Some of it.
- 31:06Speaker 2: What kind of cold winter day it was that I
- 31:09Speaker 2: was youtubing highlights of the opening game at Miller then Miller.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Park for that first night.
- 31:15Speaker 2: They have the I'm pretty sure they have the full

- 32:58Speaker 2: wakem Bay Story. The second is we just finished preseason
- 33:02Speaker 2: game number one for the Green Bay Packers Packers ot
- 33:06Speaker 2: and night ago.
- 33:08Speaker 1: Last night.
- 33:09Speaker 2: They were one month away from playing their first regular
- 33:12Speaker 2: season game. Today, the first time in NFL history that
- 33:17Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, the championship of the NFL game will
- 33:20Speaker 2: take place on Valentine's Day. Yeah, six months from today
- 33:24Speaker 2: is the super Bowl.
- 33:27Speaker 1: That's kind of.
- 33:27Speaker 3: Wild, Like it just.
- 33:30Speaker 2: You don't think about just how quickly it is. Six
- 33:33Speaker 2: months from today is Super Bowl Sunday. Then we just
- 33:36Speaker 2: started preseason game number one last night, so.
- 33:39Speaker 3: It's really a five months. Why does it feel longer?
- 33:42Speaker 2: Because there's so much action they play every single almost
- 33:46Speaker 2: every single night now.
- 33:47Speaker 3: And the drag and it's so captivating.
- 33:49Speaker 2: It's a full season. It's the longest offseason, the shortest season.
- 33:52Speaker 2: No wonder why it's the number one sport in the world.
- 33:54Speaker 2: But that just that, that mind melted me for a second.
- 33:57Speaker 2: But I did want to light up and spark up
- 33:59Speaker 2: in and waken bake for one final time, celebrating the
- 34:02Speaker 2: life of Don Nelson. His celebration of life last night
- 34:05Speaker 2: was in Or yesterday was in Dallas, for the second.
- 34:08Speaker 3: Winning as coach in NBA history.
- 34:11Speaker 2: The amount of guys that showed up for this event
- 34:13Speaker 2: and the people that spoke to the Dallas Morning News
- 34:15Speaker 2: the quotes were phenomenal. ESPN has a great writeup of
- 34:19Speaker 2: it for everybody that loved the eighties bucks go and
- 34:21Speaker 2: read it because you will enjoy the words of it.
- 34:24Speaker 2: But I can't wait. Steve Nash mentioning everything that he
- 34:27Speaker 2: did for him. Dirk Novinsky was unable to attend the
- 34:31Speaker 2: service because he was with his family in Europe, but
- 34:33Speaker 2: posted a message on social media and talked about when
- 34:36Speaker 2: he came into the room everything lit up.
- 34:39Speaker 1: No way.
- 34:39Speaker 2: Really, he was funny, he was loud, he was joking,
- 34:42Speaker 2: but he's truly one of a kind and the ultimate players.
- 34:44Speaker 2: Coach Rick Carlisle spoke talked about the Nelly Ball ways
- 34:49Speaker 2: of changing the game, as well as Sidney Moncrief, Donnie Nelson,
- 34:54Speaker 2: his son, Tim Hardaway, Chris Mullin, and obviously.
- 34:58Speaker 3: Owen Wilson submitted a video like why Why Why?
- 35:02Speaker 2: Would Wilson also be a part of Don Nelson's uh
- 35:05Speaker 2: celebration of life man eighty six years hell a hell
- 35:09Speaker 2: of a run. Great Popovich was a part of it
- 35:11Speaker 2: as well, and Pop said, it's obviously sad for everybody,
- 35:14Speaker 2: uh that it has to be an event like this
- 35:17Speaker 2: for a way to get together, but it's emblematic of
- 35:20Speaker 2: what Nelly did for almost all of us.
- 35:22Speaker 3: He had some effect on all of us in this
- 35:25Speaker 3: church today.
- 35:26Speaker 1: I love that.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Yeah, watching a lot of eighties Bucks this week, it

- 35:37Speaker 1: For any of those great Bucks moments where they're narrated
- 35:40Speaker 1: by Jim Irwin, the late great Jim Irwin.
- 35:42Speaker 3: Well they probably weren't.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Think they're a decent amount of Yeah, but it's hard
- 35:46Speaker 2: to find those broadcasts, but they probably.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Dug's probably got archival stuff from that.
- 35:50Speaker 2: You gant, I could guarantee you he's got something in there.
- 35:54Speaker 2: He was doing like four sports at the same time.
- 35:56Speaker 2: Jim Orhan play that play. We were talking about that yesterday.
- 35:58Speaker 1: He did Badger football, Packer football, and Bucks. I know that,
- 36:03Speaker 1: and I think he filled in for Brewers.
- 36:07Speaker 2: Nightly news interviews, but the morning show, Morning News, Morning
- 36:11Speaker 2: Momentary and stuff. Yeah, dude was a horse absolute legend

- 37:28Speaker 2: we would have been doing another post game show of

- 37:33Speaker 2: starters played on offense.
- 37:35Speaker 1: What eight plays?

- 37:48Speaker 2: the only name that that went down of real note.
- 37:52Speaker 2: Anthony Campbell's had a nice camp, hopefully he's better. But
- 37:55Speaker 2: we're most important.
