  Speaker 2: what it is. I guess, uh, welcome in. We got
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: four hours of radio playing for you here, A lot
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: of talk, a lot to talk about. It is basically,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: I just I guess we could call it Turkey hump Day. Yeah.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Because of the short week, we basically are going to
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: switch arou and and no longer talk about last week.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: As Chuck, maybe it's something about this chair. When you
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: sit in this chair, you forget about what happened.
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: So you've forgotten already.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah it is the chair.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Did something happen? No, no, nothing happened.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no we won a game?
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Oh a game? Oh that's good. Yeah, that's good. Cracking
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: one game, Yeah, I do remember that, the crack and
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: one one. I don't remember what happened on the back
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: to back one behind.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: That, Yeah, no, I think it was just one game
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: they played the second.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: No, that's good. So everybody's winning, and we're going to
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: focus on the winning aspect, or actually, if you can win,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: the next one is probably more important. And a lot
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: of other stuff we're going to get into that. We'll
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: get into everything that we're going to talk about and
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: when we get to what's on tap. But I did
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: want to just kind of move on towards the vikings
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: start talking about the Vikings, and but before we even
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: get into that, I thought it would be a cool
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: exercise to kind of look at I ended up spending
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: some time last night looking into the schedules of the
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: division because at this point, I mean, it's a three
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: team race, and yet it's a tight three team race.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: The Rams are on top of the division at nine
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: and two and looking good. Now everything can shift, they can,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: you know, they can have a downward spiral for a
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: week or two. The Seahawks are in second, and the
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Niners in winning Monday Night Football. Last night, they end
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: up beating the Panthers twenty to nine. Wasn't really that
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: much of a contest. The Panthers didn't play very well.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Needed to the forty nine ers, to be honest. I
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: mean they kind of were trying to give it to
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: them pretty through a couple of interceptions, and yet the
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Panthers couldn't execute, couldn't They sucked? Yeah, they did suck.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I'm sure most folks around here were not super happy
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: about it. It is what it is, though. I think
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: that you know, if if you're going to take the division,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: speaking for the Seahawks, if you're gonna win the division,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: I think you need a team like that, maybe the Panthers.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: That was the first time the Seahawks have to play
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: the Panthers again in the not the last week of
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: the season, but the one before that, and the Rams
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: play the Panthers this weekend. I think you kind of
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: need a team like the Panthers, or even a worse
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: team than the Panthers to jump up and kind of
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: sniper Because as I was looking through the schedules ash
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: there was you can find different websites that'll kind kind
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: of put the strength of schedule out there, and that's
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: based on what the team's winning percentages, and obviously that
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: changes from now to the end of the season or
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: three weeks from now even but it has the Seahawks
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: is the sixth toughest schedule left remaining with the Vikings
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: this weekend, Falcons December seventh, and then the Colts Rams,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: and then they got to go on the road to
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Carolina and on the road to the San Francisco forty
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: nine ers. That's considered the toughest. Now they kind of
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: consider the Vikings, Falcons and Panthers is not tough games.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: When they the website I was looking at kind of
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: had it kind of pushed to one side and the
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: tougher games on the other. I think the Panthers, we
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: talked about it yesterday. I think the Panthers are one
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: of those kind of question marks. I mean, somehow they've
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: found themselves in, you know, in the playoff race. They're
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: only six and six now, but you think they would
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: have been could have been seven and five if they
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: just hadn't to lay an egg last night against the Niners.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: And so they're in the hunt. They're probably one of
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: the few teams that are kind of on the cusp.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: I would say them and the Cowboys are kind of
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: in that they're in their own little category where you
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: feel like they might be able to beat somebody, but
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: you're not real sure that they will. I mean, I
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: don't have a lot of confidence that they would go
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: out there and help you out by beating the Rams
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: this next coming weekend.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but very inconsistent.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And yet the Niners have the thirteenth toughest schedule
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: and the Rams have the twenty first toughest schedule, or
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: I guess the twelfth easiest schedules another way of looking
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: at it. So there's a lot to be able to
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: dive into when it comes to Seahawks have three on
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: the road and three at home. The Niners have only
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: two on the road and four at home, and vice versa.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: For the Rams, they got to go on the road
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: for four out of their final six games. But I mean,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: you really do look at it. The Rams right now,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: sitting at nine and two, are they have to be
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: feeling pretty.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: Good two games left against the Cardinals. Yeah, yeah, exactly,
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: feeling pretty good too.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah for any of it, hadn't noticed we were not
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: even including the Cardinals other than the fact that that's
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: kind of an easy game, or so it feels, this
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: division game, and so you got to play two division games.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: But I would say, I mean, at a minimum, they're
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: going to split. They're definitely not going to get swept
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: by the Cardinals, not the way they're playing right now.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: And they play them, not this week, they play the Panthers,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: then the Cardinals. Speaking about the Rams, the Rams play
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: the Cardinals this week or Carolina Panthers this week, then
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: the Cardinals. Then here's where their tough spot is. Then
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: they got to go Detroit and on short rest, come
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: back on a Thursday and come to Seattle. That's where
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: you got to kind of make your hay against them,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: because I don't see them probably losing the Carolina or Arizona.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Anything can happen because then they they finish going to
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Atlanta and then Arizona coming to their place. Yeah, I
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: mean it very easily. I mean if they were to
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: drop one to Detroit and the Seahawks beat them, they
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: still would probably finished the season thirteen and four. Yeah,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: that's okay. So I'm thinking of ways to win the
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: division to where you don't have to go on the
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: road for the playoff games. Although you know, Greg has
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: spoke a lot about you know, if you can't win
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: the division, then you find yourself in the same place.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: And with Pete Carroll there was something to home versus road.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: I don't see that with Mike McDonald. I don't see
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: them going on the road and looking less.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: Than it seems almost like in the last year and
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: a half they've had a better advantage on the road.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: At times they've won better. I mean, for sure last
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: year they I mean they the only reason they almost
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: made the playoffs was because of how they played on
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: the road. I mean that schedule or I mean their
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: record on the road was way better. Now this year
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: it's it's not you know, it's they're three and two
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: at home and five and one on the road, so
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: it's better. I mean, But at the same time, I
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: wouldn't necessarily think, oh, man, they just can't find a
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: way at home. It'd be nice to have a home game.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I think that having the twelves on your side, getting
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: ramped up, having somebody else have to travel to your place,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: there is definitely something there, especially when you start splitting
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: the hairs of you're playing against another playoff team. You
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: want every little advantage that you can get. So I'm
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: with Greg on that to some extent. I just don't
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: know for sure if I put quite as much focus
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: on it as he would. And then I guess going
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: to the forty nine ers, they're banged up. They finally
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: got pretty back what last week. He didn't look great yesterday,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: as a matter of fact, looked less than good for
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: majority of the game, and then settled down to stop
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: throwing it to the other team. And yet I mean,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: just think about their next couple of games. They got Cleveland,
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: then they have a bye. They're one of those teams
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: that has the last week by the last one that's possible.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: In week fourteen, they got the Browns, then a bye,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: and then the Tennessee Titans.
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: That's going to be really tough for it.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: So it feels like they're gonna be sitting at ten
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: and four before they have to then go to Indian
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Apple and then the Bears come to their place, and
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: then obviously that final game of the season, the bookings
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: with the Seahawks and the forty nine ers, So to me,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: we'll end up being able to have more time to
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: dive into how we think it's going to pan out.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: But just in general, I mean, how is your thoughts
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: on this? When you look at it, you're like, boy,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: we do have kind of a tough because I don't
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: think though Vikings are a walkover. I think there you're
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: catching them in a good time. They're definitely not playing well.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: You don't know for sure who's going to be playing
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: quarterback for him this weekend. The Atlanta Falcons to me,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: seem to be reeling and they're obviously playing with their
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: backup quarterback. Now it's a backup quarterback. It's been a
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: starter plenty of times, and so you hope you don't
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: catch him on a night when he's feeling it a.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: Little bit, has third week starting again, so you never
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: know what rhythm he can get into.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then and then the Colts again, they might
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: be heading in, they might be trending in a downward direction,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: so a few weeks from now that might be a benefit.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: But then Rams, Panthers and Niners to finish out. I
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: mean it almost feels like the playoffs kind of start now.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, every week is crazy important, but I mean,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: are you feeling are you feeling good about when you
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: kind of look over what the entire schedules of those
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: that you're going to be fighting for the division? Are
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: you feeling good about where we're at? Are you feeling meh?
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Or are you feeling less than When you consider it,
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: seems like a couple of the other teams, the Niners
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: and Rams both have a couple easy stretches in the
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: rest of their remaining schedule.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: I think the first thing I noticed is just there's
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: zero room for error. So looking at it, comparing your
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: schedule to the other two, comparing your record to the
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: other two, I mean, you can't drop a game really
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: in this entire last six game run, because you do
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: that well, the forty nine ers are waiting right there,
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: and then of course you've got to finish at the
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: forty nine ers. So that's why I'm like, oh, you
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: can't go into that game having it be that. I
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: don't know that makes me nervous, but that made me nervous.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: The schedule came out and I said that I didn't
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: love the idea that we had to finish the season
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: on the road. Now, obviously I know we are better
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: on the road, but especially to finish the season at
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: the forty nine ers. That well, that will make me
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: nervous one hundred percent of the time every single year.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: But I do feel like they're the Seahawks themselves. Yes,
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: we've watched these games and had you know, this last game,
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: that second half was sloppy. I thought, you know, there
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: was a lot. It did seem like they played a
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: really tough first half and then just kind of relaxed
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: in the second half. Well, you can't do that at
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: this point, and so that's the only part that makes
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: me nervous is going into this thinking, why are we
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: at all taking a break? You come off that Rams game,
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: you think, you know what the defense stepped up, they
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: played awesome. We still had a chance to win despite
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: four interceptions by Sam Darnold. So we're in a good place.
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: And then you go to the Titans, and maybe it's
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: a little bit of a case of playing down to
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: your opponent, playing up to one opponent and playing down
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: to the next opponent. But you've got to be the consistent,
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: You've got to be who you are every single week.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: And I am a little nervous that I'm not seeing
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: exactly who we are coming out for an entire game
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: every week.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: I'm with you the idea of I mean, the NFL
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: seasons are awesome. I love NFL in large part because
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: it is so it's not like you just go to
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: training camp like Bills or Ravens. For example. This year, Wow,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: these are Super Bowl contenders, right, Chiefs. Chiefs maybe are
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: the closest thing to it since the Tom Brady dynasty.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: You know, when he was in New England where it
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: felt like you know you're going to see them, you
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: know they're going to be in playoffs, you know they're
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: going to probably have a bye, They're gonna probably be
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: hosting the AFC Championship game. You know, you just know
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: that they're going to go somewhere other than that. Really,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: if you think about the other twenty nine teams out there,
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: it's like you at some point during the season are
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: going to be like, look at how I mean, if
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: you're a contender. All three of these teams were discussing
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: in the NFC West are contenders, You're going to have
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: times where you're like, well, we're looking good. Maybe the
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Niners haven't been in that, haven't had that conversation, but
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: that seems like they've been dinged up from the get
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: go and maybe overlooked and to some possibly I think
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: maybe looked at as even going into the season. I
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: think they're on their way down.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: Well we were convinced, I mean not you, but Chuck
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: and I were convinced they were on their way down. Yeah,
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: talk about it several times.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And I just think there's just the coaching. I
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: think Shanahan has a really good system. I think he's
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: he obviously understands, you know, he was he was brought
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: up and raised by a great head coach in Mike,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: and I think that the way in which he runs
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: the organization, the way in which the program is designed
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: to where you know, we talk about Mike McDonald and
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: it's about the process. It's not about necessarily the outcome.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Obviously outcome is important, but you get back to the process.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: You win, you get back to the process of getting better.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: You lose, you get back to the process of getting better.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: It's just what are you focusing on? What do you
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: have to be more consistent at. But the the point
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: I was getting at was, over the course of a season,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: with the exception of a few like the you know,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: the Tom Brady you know New England Patriots, or the
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes Chiefs for majority of his career, it feels
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: like you're going to have a little spell of time
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: during the season where you're going like, why are they
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: not doing that right? Why does the defense not show
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: up right? Or what the why did our quarterback just
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: throw four interceptions? Or last week, why, boy, they got
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: real sloppy there. Kind of took the gas, the foot
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: off the gas a little bit and allowed it to
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: become closer to a game. I don't think it was
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: as close as the score indicated, but it's still it.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: Had a chance. Yeah, they had the on side kicks,
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: so it was a closer than it felt like it
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: should have been.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Yes, sure, and so to me it's the I mean,
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know for sure if any of these teams,
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: the Rams are probably the closest Seahawks or second Niners
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: or third as far as consistency has shown up to
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: this point. And yet I mean, I feel good about
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: as if I was a die hard Seahawks fan, I
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: would feel good about the fact that there has been
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: times throughout the course of the season that everything has
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: looked awesome. There's been times the offense looks unstoppable, and
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Sam Darnold's been talked to, you know, putt in the
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: MVP conversation. There's been times, majority of the time, maybe
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: outside of the Tampa Bay game, that the defense has
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: been really really good and talked about is one of
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: the best, if not the best, in the game. The
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: special teams has been great. And then you go out
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: and give up a punt return against the Tennessee Titans
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: last weekend. So but for the majority of the time,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: it's felt like this team is has the ability to
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: click in all different phases, whereas some teams. You know,
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: when I think of the Panthers, I don't think the
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: pa Anthers as really good at anything. And yet They're
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: one of those teams that's in that tier below those
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: that I think are for sure playoff teams and could
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: possibly win the Super Bowl. So I mean, I'm just
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: interested with when it comes to your confidence meter, if
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, are you in the same boat as I
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: am where you think the Rams seem more complete at
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: this point, even though we're only two weeks removed from
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: a loss against them, that you actually felt like you
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: outplayed him.
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: In a lot of facets, Yeah, I guess I would
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: say though that I do think at this point we
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: did outplay them, But I do think that they're more
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: of a complete team just because of what we saw.
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: We've seen week after week from them. It wasn't just
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: that one game, right, They just seem to have the
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: formula figured out. And Matt Stafford seems to be playing
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: even better in his career. Later in his career, when
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: people thought he was probably just about done injuries, we're
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: gonna do him in and here he comes just still
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: delivering the ball perfectly, well mostly perfectly all the time.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: So that's that's the thing where I would give the
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: advantage to the Rams for sure. And I do think
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: that Sam Donald is a good quarterback, and I think
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: that we have the right quarterback. I just don't think
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: he has the experience yet of playing winning football like
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: Matt Stafford does. And there's a big difference between playing
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: winning football and playing on a team that's not winning.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, you're gonna, you're just it's an entirely different game.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: So now that he's this is his second season of
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: playing some winning football, I think he's gonna quickly gain
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: more and more of that experience under his belt. And
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: that'll be helpful, obviously. But you got a long way
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: to go to catch up to Matt Stafford.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think a distinct different. I think
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: that Sam Donald can go out there and outduel him
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: on any given night, right or get out dueled. It
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: could go either way. I think the difference. Matt Stafford
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: wasn't on a winning team when he was with the Lions.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: A matter of fact, he was on a bad team.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't ever because of him, right, he was
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: never he never had to go through this rebirth thing
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: of you get to the highest level and you fail
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: and all of a sudden you're you're carrying a clipboard.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: You know, you are considered a bust. He was a
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: guy that even though he was on bad teams and
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions couldn't win when he was there, it
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: wasn't because of him. So when he got traded to
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: the Rams, it was you just keep doing what you're doing.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: We have a better situation here, We're going to surround
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: you with more talent, and boom he just does. He
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: does exactly, just keep doing what he's doing with a
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: better team, and they go win the Super Bowl. I
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: think Sam Darnold, there's something about those those skeletons that
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: you kind of have to push out of your mind
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: and you go, I don't was that was a bad situation.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: Anybody that gets drafted by the Jets as a quarterback
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: ends up struggling and turns into, you know, a backup
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: quarterback at some point or so it seems so. I
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: think that they're on different timelines. But there's no way
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: fans or Bucks that. I think that Sam Darnold has
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: a capability of making all of the throws and leading teams,
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: and he doesn't seem like he gets a rattled when
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: things aren't going his way. I think that he gets
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: a little bit more of negative stuff held up against
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: him when he has a bad game because of the
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: way in which his career started, Whereas Matt Stafford could
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: throw have a bad game and throw a few picks
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: and nobody's gonna go, oh, is that the Jets?
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: I mean, brock Perty threw three last night almost four,
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: and nobody was yelling at the TV that he almost
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: lost the game for him because the game wasn't in
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: question either. It was against a bad team.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, one hundred percent. So all right, well we're gonna
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: get We're gonna do a little bit more on this.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get down to the nitty gritty and find
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: out exactly what Ashley and I think about the NFC
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: West and how it's going to shake out, how many
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: teams are going to make it to the playoffs. But
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: first we are going to find out what is on
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: tap for the rest of the show.
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: What's on tap?
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: What's on tap? Well, we got a I guess we
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: got a cracking ticket Tuesday today. That's one thing. I'm
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: not sure exactly how that works.
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: So a chance to win every hour, You're gonna listen
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: for the crack and sounder when we play it tenth
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: collar at two o six two, eight six, ninety five
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: ninety five will win a pair of tickets to see
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: the Kraken and the Minnesota Wild on December eighth.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Nice lot. We just give away a lot of stuff.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: That's one thing that in my notes here, I'm realizing
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of stuff we got to give away,
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: and we'll get to that, but basically what else we
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: got on tap today? We're obviously moving on towards the Vikings. Uh,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: it is a Turkey hump day. Considering the short week,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: we're gonna go ahead and move in that direction. College
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: football playoff rankings come out tonight, so we'll talk to
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: Rick Neuheisel about that. The Vikings coming into town here
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: this weekend. We'll find out what Greg Bell has to
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: say about not last week, but this week, see how
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: the health of the squad is. It is duck week,
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: and so tomorrow we're having an hour long college round
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: table and an hour long NFL roundtable where I'm going
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: to be ganged up. And so today is my day
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: where it's just Ashley and I won on one Mono
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Imano and we're gonna talk some trash maybe not. We
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: got Geene's territory coming on at eight o'clock tonight or
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: eight o'clock this morning, Everett fits you will be on
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: at eight thirty. We got a lot of stuff to cover,
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: so we got hockey, college football. I think we might
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: dabble in a little bit of fantasy football. Obviously the
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: NFL is primo at this point in time in the year.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: We got some factor fiction coming up. Stick around because
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: on the other side of this break, we're gonna get
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: into whether or not we like the idea of Black
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Friday football or just having football four out of five
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: days in a row. It is a holiday season. Stick
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: around here at ninety three point three KGRFM. If you
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: would have told me, if you would have told me,
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: is that Led Zeppelin or Huey Lewis.
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: Oh, you would have known it? Then I should have
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: asked you that way.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, next time, I would have known, and that like.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: Is that Paula Abdul or Huey Lewis? If if it's, uh,
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: we'll have to see, Okay, you can tell Okay, wait.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: That's a good idea. We can do that. It'll be
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: a fun game for me to fail out all day. Okay,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: I like it because it sucks. I love Led Zeppelin.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, whenever I hear it, I'm like, oh, I
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: love this song Come Home Mom, and I love the song,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: and I had a lot of their songs, and yet
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: I couldn't tell you that was them.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: That's fair.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: He would probably want to punch me in the face
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: if he knew how bad I was at that game.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: He yeah, especially with Led Zeppelin yea or Rolling Stones.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he would not be a fan and tough luck. Well, anyways,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: welcome to the show. I am Buck, the one that
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: does not know who sings any song in the world ever,
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: and that's Ashley. We have no Chuck. He's taken the
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: week off and and good for him. I hope he's
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: enjoying his sleep. We do not do that. Although today
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: was a lot better than getting here at five o'clock
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: yesterday morning, wasn't it.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was nice to be here at like more
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: of the normal time. Uh huh, Yeah, I appreciate. I
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: appreciated that, Thanks Lok, Greg. But no, we're glad that
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: we got to talk to Greg yesterday. We will get
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: to talk to him again at seven and all of
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: our regular Tuesday guests, so.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Looking forward to that. I was wanting to talk to
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: you a little bit about I saw last night while
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: I was watching the Monday night football game, the ad
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: about Black Friday football, right, and it is just I mean,
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: I like football, and I like sitting in my chair
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: and watching football. And yet there's times you know when
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: you do this job that you're like watching sports becomes
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a job when you were forced
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: like you have to. And so over the weekend, we
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: don't have to watch all of this stuff. I mean,
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: it's good to be prepared. But at the same time,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: I mean the three games on Thanksgiving Day and then
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: they have this now I think this is the third
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: year that they've done the Black Friday games. You'll have
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: the Bears versus Eagles the day after, which I love.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: My wife's not one that necessarily does the whole Black Friday. Hey,
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: let's go out with a mob of people, but you
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: know the idea of those that do. And if you
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: want to stay home and not go do the crowds,
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: you have something like a noon kickoff game the day after.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: I can guarantee I will be making a gigantic plate
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: of smoke, turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, the whole leftover thing
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: like it's like, do it again. Just pretend that it's
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: Thanksgiving again and give thanks and get to watch another
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: football game. And then obviously Saturday we have our Ducks
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: Versus Huskies game, right, and then Sunday the regular slate
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: of Sunday football games as well, and then you got Monday.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's basically five days in a row of
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: football starting on Thanksgiving. Are you are you a fan
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: of all that kind of football?
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: Here's the thing, So didn't we used to have that
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: it was four games on Thanksgiving? Did they do that
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: and then move one off to the next day? I
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: imagine that you might have that, right.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: I can't remember, but I I don't. I don't mind
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: having the game on Friday. I just wish it was
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: later in the day, Like I kind of want my
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: football later in the afternoon so I can get some
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: stuff done in the day, especially because you know Friday
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: is the first day I can decorate for Christmas. Oh
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: that's true, So I gotta get that done. You thrown
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: in jail, yeah, exactly, and so I've got to I mean,
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: at that point, you've got bins out everywhere, You're up
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: and down in the attic and all of these things,
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: and then I don't want to, you know, make five
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: iron annoyed when I'm moving things in front of the TV,
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: and I just I want to be able to have
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: it where I've kind of more settled now. I'm just
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: placing things and have football on the background, you know,
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: leftovers for dinner, and so that's my one thing. I
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: just wish it was later in the day.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: I hear you, I'm I'm actually I kind of like
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: the noon. But then again it's because I don't I
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: don't really get after it with the the booze all
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: of that often anymore. I don't like, you know, nothing
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: like I used to be. I'm just not a giant
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: fan that you get to fifty. I don't know if
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: it was right at fifty or if it was starting
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: to slowly get to that point and I just was
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: ignoring it or trying to ignore it. But the day
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: after this ends up turning into like two days after
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: sometimes where I just don't feel great. And so I'll
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: still probably have a you know, glass of wine or
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: five on thanks for Thanksgiving, but I'm gonna try to
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: take it somewhat low key because now with this morning schedule.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: If I'm not hungover, I will I'll still get up
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: kind of early and I can get a bunch of
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: stuff done before that game. And then it's kind of
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: like the idea of getting up and I'm gonna probably
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: split some wood and stack some wood and you know,
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: make a fire, just do all the stuff that I
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: typically would do on a Friday or Saturday. Even though
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: this is going to be a Friday without work. To me,
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: I feel like there's going to be a part of
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: me where I'm gonna be able to get some stuff
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: done and then it's like my day is done. My
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: chores are done for the day. If that makes sense,
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: I mean yours is going to be. I think decorating
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: a house, the inside of a house, probably your house
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: probably takes a whole heck of a lot longer than
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: what it'll take me to go out and split a
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: quard of wood and stack it and then take a
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: shower and make my gigantic plate of leftovers and sit
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: down for the day.
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: I just think even one thirty would have been a
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: better I know it's not it's not the ideal time,
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: but like keeping it more in the NFL window, Yeah,
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: so having it at like one one five. I would
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: that would even be better, right, I don't. I just
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: the noon just feels early.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, the nice thing too, is it is a
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: game of interest for folks around here. I mean the
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: the you know, and the Bears and Eagles. They're both teams.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't I do not know what to
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: think about the Bears. I mean, maybe Kayla Williams is
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: is arriving. It seems like he is to some degree.
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: They're one of those teams though that it's just like
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: the Colts. Everyone's like, mmmm, are they really as good
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: as they's schedule says they are? And so every single
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: game they have you think, well, they can't possibly win
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: this one, and you know, at the end, like they've
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: been winning all of these other games, there's no way
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: they can sustain this, which I believe people have said
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: about the Mariners in the past. There's no way they
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: could keep winning one run games. You can.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: So it's interesting though, because I will be I will
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: definitely want to want to be watching it because I
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: am curious to see if the Bears can can make
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: that that jump.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, to be like, okay, you're relevant now. They have
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: been relevant for a while, you're not just relevant. I
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: mean they're sitting at eight and three, they're in the
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: playoffs at this point in time. If the season was
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: stand and yet it's not, and you have to kind
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: of figure this thing out for the final month and
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: a half of the season. It's interesting. All of the games,
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: basically Thursday and Friday are they're all They all have
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: interesting storylines, right, Chiefs and Cowboys are on you know, Packers' lines.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Of course that's a that's one where what's going to happen?
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Who are the Lions?
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: I don't like one's the morning game. No, I want
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: to see that one at night.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: When you actually have turkey. Yeah, yeah, or even if
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: you're not doing turkey.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: Baltimore Cincinnati, especially although Joe Burrow is supposed to play,
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: so that does make it more exciting. Yeah, I guess, yeah,
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I just the Packers' lines for some reason.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: To me.
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: I know that they usually play early, but I would
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: like to see that later.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that. I think that I'm with you.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: I think the other two probably have better storylines. But
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: the Bengals one is a lot of folks are like,
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: why would you play him? You're three and eight, and
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: yet they are only three games behind the Ravens.
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: Who that Yeah, because and.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: You look at the Bengals schedule, they they win this
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: game and then they they have this game Bills and
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Ravens again.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: M h.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: If they somehow Joe Burrah comes back and is a
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: shot in the arm and they win these three games, oh,
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: there'll be a game out of first place. And they
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: got a cake walker.
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: They played Miami, Arizona and Cleveland. Yeah, the last two
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: games are at home.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Bengals are like, they're three and eight and
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: they're the only three in eight that is getting back
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: a Pro Bowl caliber quarterback and their division leaders has
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: six wins. I mean, it's there's a ton of storylines
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: just in those Thursday games and then Friday, hence the
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: super Bowl that is the NFL. So we're going to
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: continue to dive into that. On the other side of this,
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: it's our first little one on one Ashley and Buck
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: talking about Duck Weeks. So stick around here at ninety
• 30:25

  Speaker 2: Yeah? Very very violent?
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: Well, if it makes you feel better. I just got
• 31:00

• 31:07
  Speaker 4: it's a nice, warm sweater and I'm cold and wonderful.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: Then I basically went home and burned it, and today
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: I'm wearing purple legging.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: You look good in green. Actually, green's a great growler.
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I don't mind the color green, and
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: that was a dark green. It wasn't even remotely close
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: to the we have all greens. Well, that's true, you
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: do have a lot of them.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: We have a lot of greens. I haven't seen our
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: uniforms yet. See how awesome they are. You know they're
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: going to be amazing.
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: I don't think there's a lot of your uniforms that
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: are amazing.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: I know, but that's just because you hate them so much. Yeah,
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: you do not look at it objectively. No, I said,
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: a couple of days ago, your guys's uniforms, the Huskies uniforms.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: Couple wasn't as last week because it was just normal.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: But it was a week before there was the what
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: was the special uniforms a week before the Huskies had
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: on Was it a military looking wo There was some
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: sort of cameoish.
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: They did it. That was the was it on the numbers?
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there was something different about it. Dang it, I remember,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: and I ended up. I think I might have tweeted
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: about it. I think I might have tweeted, these are
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: really these are really nice uniforms that the Huskies have on.
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: See I can compliment.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah it was uh yeah, the numbers had the camo
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: color and then there was some black camo and yeah yeah,
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: so it was the purple jersey with some camo throughout.
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, they look nice.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: See how easy that is to just give compliments.
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'll see this. You guys did a Grateful Dead
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: tribute and the numbers were like a tie die. That
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: was a cool touch.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Okay, ah, that's good. I'm glad that we got that.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: We just went overcame a hurdle right now, So how
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: are you feeling? You? You you excited? Are you nervous?
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's the opportunity to possibably knock the Ducks
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: out of the playoffs.
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: Well, that's what it's all about, right, I mean, that's
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: what the rival that's what any rivalry game is all about. Now,
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: obviously we had a different kind of rivalry here with
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: Washington and Oregon a couple of years ago, with both teams, Yeah,
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: on the top of the conference, and I mean at
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: that point, you really are playing for the championship. That's
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: a much bigger deal, right, But here, right now, Yeah,
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: your chance to ruin another team season, especially a team
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: you hate. That's the way it should be. We did
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: get a text that said, I'm not comfortable with Bucky
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: saying it's Duck week. I do have to let the
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: listener know, we always call this Duck week. It's it
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: has nothing to do with you calling it.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: That call the Husky week.
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: Every week's Husky week. This is Duck week. And every
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: year when whatever we've talked about this game, it's always
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: duck week.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's not a Bucky thing. Bucky is doing
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: just fine.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, I'm not trying to. I mean it is
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: I do get to kind of run the show today,
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: and so it's the one day before tomorrow when I'm
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: going to get ganged up on by you and cam Willa.
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: Just wanted to remind you you run the show.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, changed, yes, yes, I mean I have I have
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: three segments in here today about to talk about the Ducks.
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: Well, it is a big it's a big deal. I
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: mean especially you know, it used to be Apple Cup
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: this week and that was a lot of fun. But
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: and now Apple Cup just doesn't even have remotely the
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: same feeling around it, not only because we're not in
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: the same conference, but because then the game got moved
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: to September, so at least it was replaced with another
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: game that is a rivalry game.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't understand how. I mean, the idea of
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: the expansion of the college playoffs and all of that,
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: it's changing. The game is changing, period, andil changed it.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: The dissolving of the PAC twelve changed it. Coaches moving
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: and players not stand for anywhere for any longer than
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: what they absolutely have to until they find greener pastures
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: somewhere else. The game has changed. And yet there's certain
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: things I mean, at least as a fan that like
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Ducks Huskies, it's not you know how I am. I
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: despise the Beavers more growing up. But the game has
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: changed to the point now where it's not even a game.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: It's very similar to you Dub versus Wazoo, as sad
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: as it is, it's you're not playing on equal fields anymore.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: You're you're not working with the same tools as far
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: as both universities and how you can recruit and all
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. And so this is now the
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: main rivalry, even though I've been put one dragging my feet,
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: you know, kicking and scream and not wanting to give
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: up what I grew up with, which was we would
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: get our butt kicks Bucks butts kicked by the Huskies.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: The game that mattered us was well, a civil war,
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: and so it was that's all that matters. So now
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: this is this is it, and it is going to
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: be a good one and I'm looking forward to We're
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: going to discuss tailgating with Medley's a little bit later
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: because I got to find out what the hell I'm
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: in for and if I should bring my child.
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah I'm bringing mine.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Well that makes me feel a little safer, although Paul,
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: we're gonna try to beat up Baron.
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: Oh there's always that chance.
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: Oh man, this is this is scary. We're gonna have
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: to We're gonna have to discuss this. We're gonna have
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: to discuss this. Uh. But on the other side, we're
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: gonna get to some headlines. We're gonna get to another
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: conversation with Greg Bell. So stick around here at Sports
