  Speaker 2: two tickets to to go to the game yesterday.

• 1:51
  Speaker 3: like I was saying, they're trying to make it fun,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: but that was not a fun game.

  Speaker 2: The EM's got outscored nineteen to zero in their two
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: losses in the three home games in Detroit. The only
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Reds they scored guess what, were by home runs. They
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: don't hit home runs, they don't score. They don't win.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Can't score, don't win. Kind of an easy combination there.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: If you can can't score runs, you're gonna lose. Mariners

  Speaker 2: starting safety. First NFL preseason game was last night, the
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, near my hometown.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Dave Canales is Carolina Panthers one on the final play.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: The Lions have given Jamir Grit Gibbs a three year
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: extension worth sixty seven point five million that makes him
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: the highest paid running back in the league. Rams coach
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Sean McVay said Aaron Donald and his latest workout with
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: the team quote looked outstanding. I remember we talked with
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Farhan Lawsy of TSN Canada, our buddy in La yesterday
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: about watching Aurone Donald working out the Sounders. Sunday twelve
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: thirty at Lumenfield, they had their second League's Cups match.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: It's against Carotero of Lega MX and now on with
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: the Friday Show.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: Twelve.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Practice of seaok training camp has already started here in Renting.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Not as much smoke today.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: It's a little more blue sky now, really kind of
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: lifted it. It's not so bad out here.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: The Seahawks are starting the beginning of practice. How it
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: works is they do calisthenics. If we've never never come
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: out to training camp, they do stretching kylisthenics. They didn't
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: do a special teams portion of practice, where the guys
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: like the defensive line and the offensive line of the
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks who don't play special teams go on side fields
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: and work on individual stuff, but the bulk of the
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: team spends about twenty twenty five minutes on special teams,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: kick coverage, one on one gunner type drills in the
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: open field, angles toward punt and kickoff returners, fielding kickoff
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: and punt returns, those kind of things. Tory Harton's been
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: back doing some of that as well, and he's on track.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Like I said, he he has only this one practice
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: of the first twelve. He's back out there today. It's
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: a good sign for him from his shin injury and
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: the surgery in February to put a metal rod in
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: his gym. Then after the first special team's portion of practice,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: they break into group drills and position drills. Position drills
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: that become group drills of offense running offense and defense
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: running defense, and then about halfway through practice they come
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: together and they do eleven on eleven in varying periods,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: red zone, special situation, short yardage, long diss hurry up.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: All of that, and then they do that in varying pace.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: Mike McDonald paces that.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's eleven eleven scrimmages, it's like a football game,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: and sometimes it is in walk through tempo. Sometimes it's
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: in thud temple, which is like a half jog. He
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: does mix that up. He mixes up special situations, sudden change.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: He'll just yell out interception first and ten going in
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: no timeouts, fifty seconds and then they go. And that's
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: how the Seahawks almost every practice goes. And he's been
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: going almost three hours this week for practices, and a
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: lot of it's been learning at walk mode. They're still
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: installing quite a bit. When I asked the offense, new
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: offensive coordinator of Brian Flurry this week how much they've installed,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: he said, we just put the base stuff in and
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: we've got a lot to put in still with the deeper,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: finer parts of the playbook.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Craig, I have a question for you and the time
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: that you have been covering this team, which has been
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: quite a while.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: I am just yeah, yeah, it's been a while. I
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: am not going to aid you.
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: On that one.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: Just wondering how important that is, you know, when they
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: do like yesterday was an ATC day, and how important
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: it is to like basically walk before you run before
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: you get physical, learning the playbook and learning the installations.
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: I always thought that that was the most important thing.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: And then you start to hit.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: Spoken like a football coach's daughter. Yeah.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: That The way the theory is, and McDonald subscribes to
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: it is have them think early in training camp at
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: a walks pace so they can think through what they're
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: doing and do it correctly, so that when they actually
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: do it during the season thinking and they do it
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: even in the pre they're not thinking, they can do
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: it at a fast paced Athletes that are slow are
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: the ones that are thinking. The ones that aren't thinking
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: play freely and naturally in their athletic ability comes out.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: So he he doesn't want them to rush through or
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: run through the new stuff, because then he won't get it,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: won't be right. He wants them to do it right
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: from the start, rather than bumping into walls as they
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: learn it. That's why he has them go through walking.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Some coaches want them to go. Some coaches want players
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: to feel it full go right away so they can
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: take it from the whiteboard in the film room straight
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: onto the field and feel it.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: It feels like real speed. McDonald's not that way he
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: wants them to be.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: He's so precise on trying to get it right the
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: first time and get muscle memory to it that he
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: hasn't literally walk through the new parts. And if you
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: ever come out to training camp and you say, why
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: are they doing eleven on eleven walking through these plays?
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: That's why.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: That's when you know those are the new plays that
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: they're putting in for the day or the week. It's
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: the philosophy and not saying one's right or wrong, but
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: it's definitely the way Mike McDonald has approached it is
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: to walk during the learning parts.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: And that's why the practice is kind of ebb and
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: flow and pace.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah, one of the things I was going to bring
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: up because I've covered college football for so long, is
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: that certain guys have old the athletic gifts and because
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: they couldn't learn the playbook, they didn't make it right.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: And it's a huge part of it.
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: So I know that we kind of joke about them
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: being out there in shorts and T shirts and everything,
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: but it's a critical part.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: The learning part on the field is absolutely huge.
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: You could be the most gifted guy in the world,
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: but if you don't know what you're supposed to be
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: doing and there's a reason for what you're supposed to
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: be doing, then you're just not going to make it
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: and you're not going to be successful exactly.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: And when we say act practice, Mike McDonald's term for alignment, communication,
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: and technique for each of the players on every play,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: and he wants them to get all of that fundamentally
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: sound before he layers on top of it all the
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: other things he wants his defense and offense to do.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: And he throws act practices in even during the season.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: They'll throw them in on maybe a Wednesday after a
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: game between games. Uh, It's something that he's picked up
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: along the way from John Harbaugh, this coach and mentor
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: with the Baltimore Ravens. Every weekday ten am to six

• 9:36
  Speaker 5: I wanted to bring this up because we got we
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: didn't have time for it yesterday, but we got a
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: talk back from Tony to inform me that some people
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: have trouble spelling.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: And I was always joking about it, but it is true.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: So you do to spell it out. Spell it out.

• 10:00
  Speaker 2: old veteran fifty five year veteran teacher in Ohio. She's
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: not ninety, but she taught for fifty five years so
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: maybe that's why I spell four years.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: And you know what, I was remiss to acknowledge that
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: they can't spell cash.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: They probably shuldn't earn cash, right, if ever, shouldn't win cat.
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: I also was just joking around, and there should be
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: no problem with you spelling it out.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: On the show today you're hear from Tylecotta.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: The starting safety looks like the air to Kobe Bryant
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: signing with the Chicago Bears. Course, he started eleven games
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: last year, most of them when Julian Love was out
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: with a hamstring injury for two months in the middle
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: of the season. Tyo Cott has had a hell of
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: a year this time last year. He was a fringe
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: player at the bottom of the roster on special teams.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Then he became a starter. Then he became a favorite
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: of Mike McDonald for how well he did as a starter.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Then he won a.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl and got a ring, and then he got married.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: He said, yeah, two rings in one year is a
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: pretty good year.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: He told me that yesterday.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's such a good quote.
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: I love that. I could tell you rehearsed that. He's
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: told more than one person that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: I still like it, though, It's like if I had
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: that quote, if I came up with it, I'd.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Want to use it multiple times.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: You're he'll you will hear Tyle gotta say that at
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: ten twenty five, At ten forty five, mind me what
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: we're doing at ten forty five, Jess, we are.
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: We have some interesting information coming up, just the changes
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: that Mike McDonald has made there, you know, the the adjustments,
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: I should say. And Shilkapatia had some interesting information.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: That well, yeah, he used to do. That's right.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Eur Buddy Shield used to cover the Seahawks for ESPN
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: dot Com. He's not back in his home area of Philadelphia.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: He had a statistic and loss statistic from week ten
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: to the twenty twenty four season.
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Thanks Jessmin.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Twenty twenty four season, Week ten was a pivot point
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: in the history of the Seahawks and in Mike mc
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: McDonald's regime. We'll explain that at ten forty five. At
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: eleven o'clock, you're gonna hear from Dante Fowler. He's the
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: newest pass rusher, veteran pass rusher they signed this offseason,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: thirty two years old. In his twelfth NFL training camp,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: he regrets not signing last year. Obviously, he signed with
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Dallas instead, and I asked him, yeah, you kind of
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: wish you hadn't done that.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: He laughed. I thought, he, I don't know how he
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: would take it because I don't know him well. And
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: he laughed.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: He said, yeah, I should have come here last year,
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: said he went to Dallas and they didn't go anywhere
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: while the Seahawks won the Super Bowl. Well, he had
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: a couple of recruiters on the Seahawks team that have
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: been trying to get him here for a couple of years.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Add And Dirty, the defensive coordinator, was his coach and
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: in both Atlanta and Dallas on the defensive line for
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: the Falcons and the Cowboys. And then DeMarcus Lawrence, the
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: eleven year Cowboy who signed here last year, tried to
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: get Fowler here last year to come with him.
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: Instead, he chose Dallas. And now Lawrence said, hey, you
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: were wrong. I was right.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: You could have wont to ring with me. Want talking
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: about the Seattle And that's what Dante Fowler's doing here.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: I saw him dropping into pass coverage and practice the
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: other day. That's that's not why he's here, but that's
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: what you do in training camp, work all the outside
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: linebacker drills. He's going to be a situational edge pass rusher.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Most likely you'll hear from him at eleven o'clock eleven thirty,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: your text and talkbacks and the Takoma Doads text line
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: four nine, four or five one before the Mayor of
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Maple Valley, Ian Ferness joins me right here from training camp.

• 13:50
  Speaker 4: Just gonna wait be there.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: And you know what, he's going to be fresh too,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: when he'll be.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: Years fresh, that's right, and he will not have gone
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: through training camp. Now.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see how much he ramps up.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: I mean they got a fifteen to sixteen hour flight.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: In the first game in Australia against the forty nine Ers,
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Aaron Donald probably isn't going to be the number one
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: defensive tackle at seventy eighty percent of the snaps like
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: he used to be Week one against the forty nine
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Ers in Australia, But he'll ramp up to that and
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: by the time the Seahawks see the Rams for the
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: first time on Christmas Night at Lumenfield, Aaron Donald'll be
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: in the center of everything.
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure of that.
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you miss no, Sorry, I just yeah, I love
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: that question though, Like, what's your level of concern he'll
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: be fresh, But how old does he now?
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: Thirty three, thirty four? What is he thirty three through
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: or four? He's been out of the league for three years.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just it's not the same level of concern
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: for me personally right now as I might have had.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: When he's been He's thirty five. He turned thirty five
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: in May.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: He's being teamed a course of Miles Garrett, the defensive
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Player of the Year in twenty two and a half
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: sacks that set an NFL record last year in Cleveland.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: What's your level concern of Aaron Donald joined Miles Garrett
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: on top of Trent McDuffie, on top of Jalen Watson
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: on a revamped super team as far hum laws. He
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: told us yesterday, what's your level concern for the Rams?
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: Four nine?
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: One will read back to your text at eleven thirty.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Other questions that I did, the comments, of course welcomed,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: including another Jimothy Knight for the Mariners.
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna go in the same round I did yesterday.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: I mean, at this point, you're just shrupping it off,
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: especially after what we saw yesterday.
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Man, they're not just losing, just they're getting embarrassed.
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: The season on the line, eleven nothing and that lineup
• 15:35
  Speaker 7: they trot it out yesterday, No Raleigh, no nailor Triple
• 15:39
  Speaker 7: A guys in the lineup, Victor Roblay's pitching.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, I get it. You don't want to burn
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: arms in an eight nothing game any nights then?
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I mean, like that's what you see, Like
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: that's that's the white flag is when you put your
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: position players on the mound.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: But yeah, the season on the line, right after the
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: trade deadline, after they make the move, they get Taylor Ward,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: they get a new reliever and ship out Luis Castillo,
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: and their first two losses after that nineteen to nothing
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: combined nineteen nothing on your home field against the sub
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: five hundred team. Next up, I told you they got
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: the Rays. The Rays are twenty two games over, five
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: out of the only good team in the American League
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: coming into town starting to night for three games. Then
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: they got to go to the Yankee Stadium, which is
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: never fun for them. Ever, the Yankees are in a
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: playoff spot currently second in the American League. East to
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Tampa and then they go to the trash Cans and
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: play Houston. And at this point, you just hope they're
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: within three games before that series starts a week from today,
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: so that they can somehow be within striking distance a
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: first place before they even.
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: Get to Astro City.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: And they got the Chicago Cubs on the schedule the
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: next two or three weeks. But we've seen this team
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: be inexplicable when beating teams they have no beaten business
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: beating while losing to losing teams. We've seen this happen before.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: We'll see what happens tonight. Another pack tous I'm sure
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: because of another Jimothy Knight and Alumni home run derby
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: after the game. Our friend Bucky Jacobs is gonna hit
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: after the game. Ichiro is going to hit after the game.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be out the yard. I'd already planned on
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: going before they had scheduled another Jimothy Night. My son
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: and I are going to go check out.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: Well, maybe you'll get a special Jimothy something.
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: No, I'll give it away.
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: You just handed to the first person I can see,
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: just turn to something.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not sure they had the trading card the
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: other night. I don't know what they're doing tonight.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: I think they're doing that same ticket promotion.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: If you buy and spend a little extra money, you
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: get a T shirt with a Jimothy's son.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there there was the other night. I'm looking at
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: it right now.
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: If you buy those special tickets, you do get a
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: T shirt, that is correct.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know if the cards will be out again.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: Hopefully the inventory runs out and then they can't do
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: any more of these.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, well, there is the Alumni home run derby.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, there is that, and then tomorrow's the huge fiftieth celebration.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: They're trying to bring back as many of the top
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: fifty players as they can in Mariner's history. Some of
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: them don't live anymore, but the ones that are alive.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: They're trying. They've got a pretty good turnout expected for
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: tomorrow nights.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I got to witness a couple of them.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: Coming up.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: We're gonna go back here to Seahawks training camp. You're
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: gonna hear from Tyocotta on what a glorious last twelve
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: months he's had from fringe player special team or to
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl champions starting safety in newlywaed Tyocotta is next
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: from Seahawks training camp on ninety three point three kJ RFN, Hi,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Welcome back to Seahawks training camp. The twelve practice of
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: training camp, Greg Bell, you're in renting Jesson McIntyre la
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: BA Studios back in Seattle on ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Right in front of me, the offensive linemen are working
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: out with coach John Benton. There's a continuity factor there
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: that is huge. All five starters are returning. John Bent,
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: the offensive line coach, is returning. This team has had
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: four offensive coators in four years and three offensive line
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: coaches in four years. Clint Kubiak tried to take John
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Bent with him to Las Vegas to be the new
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Raiders coach, and Benton told me a couple of days
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: before the Super Bowl in San Jose, I'm.
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: A Seahawk, Dammit, I'm not going anywhere. He was true
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: to his word. Kubiak tried to get into the Raiders.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: John Benton state, he got a raise, he got a
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: promotion to an assistant head coach title, and the offensive
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: lineman will tell you he's the reason that the offensive
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: line is returning with all five starters in tack off
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: of a very successful season last year after ten years
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: of flux on the offensive line. I'm supposed to talk
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: to Anthony Bradford after practice today. We'll take that interview
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: and you'll hear it on Monday's show. Anthony Bradford's in
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: a contract year, the right guard. And those of you
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: who were wondering if, because they drafted Bo Stevens in
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: the first round out of Iowa, the All American guard,
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: whether he would challenge Anthony Bradford, that was one of
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: the things I was going to look for in this
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: training camp. The answer is an emphatic no. Stevens is
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: still on the third team and Trench does a third
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: team right guard. He hasn't even sniffed the second team,
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: let alone challenge Bradford. Bradford's been the starter day one,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: every snap at right guard with the first team offense.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Christian Haynes, who has failed three different times with two
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: regimes to win the head the right job right guard job,
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: has been the number two behind Anthony Bradford. You'll hear
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: from Anthony Bradford on the show on Monday at eleven o'clock.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: You're gonna hear from Dante Fowler. He's the new veteran
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: edge rusher they signed in the off season, his twelfth
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: NFL training camp. We'll talk about why he's here and
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: how he wished he would have signed last year when
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: he had the chance to had a couple of Seahawks
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: recruiting him and he said no, went to Dallas. Tyle
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Conna caught up with him yesterday. Starting safety has had
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: one hell of a twelve month period. This time last year.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: As I mentioned earlier, he was a fringe player trying
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: to make the roster, trying to stick as a stay
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: on as a special teams player, which he had first
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: caught on with the Seahawks a couple of years ago,
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: and then Julian Love blows out his hamstring and misses
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: two months. Ocata becomes the deep safety starting for Love,
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: started eleven games. Kobe Bryant got hurt for a couple
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: of games he started for him as well. That as
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: well as Ocada played, including his first career interception and
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: huge tackles and sure tackling in the open field. That
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: made the Seahawks feel better about letting the Bears sign
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: Kobe Bryant to a huge contract and not trying to
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: break their budget to match it. They said, Okay, Brian,
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: you're gonna leave for that money, We'll just go with
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: ty Ocotta, And that's what happened.
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: Tyocotta is starting safety undisputed.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Bud Clark has been in in sub packages and Nickel
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: and dime, but when they're in base and they have
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: two safeties deep, it's Julian Love and Tyokata.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: This was Tyo Katta yesterday.
• 22:05
  Speaker 8: Camp Field a different kind of coming to a different
• 22:07
  Speaker 8: role with the tests.
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a little bit.
• 22:11
  Speaker 9: The approach and the attention to detail is still the same,
• 22:14
  Speaker 9: and you're always trying to grow as a player, but
• 22:16
  Speaker 9: just having years in the system now trying to help
• 22:19
  Speaker 9: bring younger guys along at that same time, I would
• 22:21
  Speaker 9: say that that's probably the biggest difference so far this year.
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: How is that?
• 22:25
  Speaker 8: I mean, obviously they they've dropped a guy, signed some
• 22:28
  Speaker 8: free agents as well at the safety spot.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: How did you kind of approach all that?
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Awesome?
• 22:32
  Speaker 9: Just in any way that I can help them grow
• 22:34
  Speaker 9: as people and as players, I'm gonna I'm gonna take
• 22:37
  Speaker 9: that on my shoulders and try to help them in
• 22:38
  Speaker 9: any way that I can.
• 22:39
  Speaker 10: We've got a.
• 22:40
  Speaker 9: Great group of young dbs and they're they're like sponges.
• 22:44
  Speaker 9: They want to learn, and they're willing to learn anything
• 22:46
  Speaker 9: and everything. So any way that I can help them out,
• 22:48
  Speaker 9: that's just kind of my goal is to help bring
• 22:51
  Speaker 9: them along.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: School was last year.
• 22:54
  Speaker 11: Life For you to take over the role he did,
• 22:57
  Speaker 11: have the production he did as a guy that's you
• 22:59
  Speaker 11: never really had to grind, go to hard.
• 23:00
  Speaker 10: Route and play.
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was.
• 23:02
  Speaker 9: It was a blessing to uh get that opportunity and
• 23:06
  Speaker 9: just to see that all the hard work and the
• 23:08
  Speaker 9: dedication all come to fruition and gain. Really the trust
• 23:11
  Speaker 9: of my teammates and the coaches was really special to
• 23:14
  Speaker 9: me because ultimately, I just want to help help us
• 23:16
  Speaker 9: win games in any way that I can help do that,
• 23:18
  Speaker 9: whether it's on special teams or defense. I just take
• 23:21
  Speaker 9: a lot of pride in that, And so it was
• 23:22
  Speaker 9: it was special.
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: How's married life treating you so far?
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: Really good?
• 23:26
  Speaker 9: It's it's funny. We've been together now for six years,
• 23:28
  Speaker 9: so not much has changed. I feel like when kids
• 23:32
  Speaker 9: come into the picture, that's maybe when it becomes a
• 23:34
  Speaker 9: little bit different.
• 23:34
  Speaker 10: But it's been great so far.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: Pretty big year for your life on So have you
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: taking stock of the last twelve.
• 23:40
  Speaker 12: Months, Yeah, no doubt.
• 23:42
  Speaker 9: I keep making the joke two rings in a year
• 23:45
  Speaker 9: is not too bad. So it's it's been it's been
• 23:47
  Speaker 9: a special year.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: Your first interception and the I guess you had one
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: of the Green Bay preseason year, but your first regular
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: season interception.
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: What was that like and what do you remember about
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: that play?
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 23:57
  Speaker 9: First of all, shout out to the rush. Spoon did
• 23:59
  Speaker 9: a great job hitting the blitz fast. Our front got
• 24:02
  Speaker 9: the pressure and so forcing Jayden to get it out
• 24:04
  Speaker 9: of his hands and kind of you know, he was
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: just trying to get rid of the ball and then
• 24:08
  Speaker 9: being able to take advantage of that opportunity was really special.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: But shout out to those guys.
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: They really help make that play come to life.
• 24:17
  Speaker 8: Today for this kind of came. You know, you guys
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: are just doing the walk throughs and stuff. How big
• 24:20
  Speaker 8: are those days? You know to like take the easy days,
• 24:22
  Speaker 8: but like they're learning days in your mind.
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: Yeah, coach hits on this a lot, and it's really
• 24:27
  Speaker 9: just like taking pride in everything that we do, every
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: single step, whatever moment that is in front of us,
• 24:32
  Speaker 9: taking full advantage of it. Those are reps like today
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: in an act practice where it's walked through speed, those
• 24:37
  Speaker 9: are those are real. Those are real reps, whether you're
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: visualizing it, whether you're getting to see it. And a
• 24:41
  Speaker 9: walk through temple like those are those are reps that
• 24:44
  Speaker 9: you you get to see and it's not taxing on
• 24:46
  Speaker 9: your body, but mentally, if you're challenging yourself and trying
• 24:49
  Speaker 9: to take full advantage of it, it really it helps tremendously.
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: It was a nice to be indoors better than out
• 24:54
  Speaker 8: there with all that smoke.
• 24:55
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's funny though it seems like there's still a
• 24:57
  Speaker 9: little bit of smoke in here for sure, But no
• 24:59
  Speaker 9: doubt it.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Will be the same atmospheres the last time you guys
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: were there, but getting a looming field on Saturday going
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: through that, and I'd love to be.
• 25:05
  Speaker 10: Kind of fun.
• 25:06
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's always exciting to get in front of some
• 25:08
  Speaker 9: more twelves. I know that they're always out at practice,
• 25:10
  Speaker 9: which is awesome, and you feel the love and support.
• 25:12
  Speaker 9: Loom's a bit bigger, so you can fit some more
• 25:14
  Speaker 9: fans in there, which is really fun and just that excitement.
• 25:17
  Speaker 9: I'm excited for the young guys to kind of get
• 25:18
  Speaker 9: a feeling for that too. I remember when I first
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: came in that was our first real opportunity to play
• 25:23
  Speaker 9: in front of a decent sized crowd and just working
• 25:25
  Speaker 9: on our communication on defense and how we're getting to
• 25:28
  Speaker 9: adjustments with fans there in a little bit of crowd noise.
• 25:30
  Speaker 9: So those are always great opportunities to just sharpen our sword.
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: With the secondary, it seems like we have a lot
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: of really I just count guys.
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: To put some players that can do different things.
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: How much is that excite you get. There's a lot
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: of different things Mike mccollogy can.
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: Do on the back.
• 25:43
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's it's always super exciting and it's just about
• 25:47
  Speaker 9: the guys out there owning their role and whatever your
• 25:50
  Speaker 9: role is, understanding it, doing it to your best ability.
• 25:52
  Speaker 9: It's really fun when you have such versatile guys that
• 25:56
  Speaker 9: can do a lot of different things in this defense.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: Ty Oconna talking yesterday following I walked through practice. He's
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: back on the field today the twelfth practice of Seahawks
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: training camp. Is the starting safety back with Julian Love.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: What's Bud Clark doing well? He is in some sub
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: packages this week. He's been doing a little more nickel
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: and dime. He was getting a little bit of a
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: run at the beginning of the week in even Worri's
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: hybrid big nickel linebacker spot when they go sub packages.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Less so of that the last couple of days. I've
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: seen d Anthony Bell doing more of that like he
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: was at the starter camp. But Bud Clark's in the
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: apprentice stage. Mike McDonald and Adam Dirty, the defensive quarters
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: said they are fire hosing him and giving him everything
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: he can try to handle mentally on the field in
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: different roles, just like they did with Nick even Wore
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: this time last year. The impression I got is that
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Clark hasn't hasn't mastered every single thing they throw at
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: him as quickly as even Worried did. But Emon Worri
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: was supernatural in doing that last year. That's why he
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: was so good during the season and so dynamic because
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: nothing that McDonald threw at him he didn't master. Kark
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: is still swimming a little bit, and that's what Mike
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: McDonald said. He's not mistake free. There's things he's got
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: to learn, but his effort, his attitude, all of that
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: is great. Everything that they hoped the second round draft
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: pick from TCU to B. But what's not annoying him
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: as the new nick even worry just yet. He's still
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: swimming and learning his assignments.
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: But yeah, that depth that he adds, I mean, that's
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: the biggest thing that I look at exactly.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: And you always need extras, always need more guys, especially
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: the way McDonald's like the substitute and change and sub
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: packages and versatility of guys in multiple positions, all of that.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: Bud Clark has been doing that out here too in
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: training camp. But Tyo Katta is still entrenched as the starter.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: This is his first full season is starting. He HEARDing
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: me ask him about getting married. He got married just
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: a few weeks before training camp.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: Congratulations.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: It's a life altering year, isn't it. It is?
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: And I feel like a lot of these guys who
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: come through here do actually go through that. I mean,
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: and I think professional athletes in general, like I think
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: we saw five different Mariners have babies within a year
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: of each other. And not that they have babies, their
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: wives had babies, you know what I mean. But yeah,
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: it is life altering at such a young age, and
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: I'm just really happy for people when they do it.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: It also speaks to how young the team still is
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: that most of their players are still twenty five to
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: thirty years old. I mean even Sam Darnold, who also
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: got married this offseason. He's twenty nine, just turned twenty
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: nine this spring. Yeah, and Ernest Jones is still only
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: twenty six, twenty seven, And they are a young, young.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: Team at their core.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, they have Wonder Williams at thirty two and Jared
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Reed at thirty three and de Marcus Lawrence at thirty
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: three going on thirty four, but their core guy, Devin
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Witherspoon is still twenty five.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: No, Ignanogamy was talking to us and you heard him
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: the other day talking about how he was blown away
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: by watching film of a Seahawks opponent that the Washington
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Commanders and the Iganagamby were or were preparing for last year,
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: and he couldn't help but notice the effort and how good,
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: just playing good Witherspoon was. And he said, when he
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: got here, he sees why Witherspoon is as good as
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: he is in a three time Pro bowler. Throw out
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: the people that say, well, he only has two interceptions
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: in three years. The guy just jumps off tape to
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: an NFL player into the coaches, which is why he's
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: made the Pro Bowl three years in a row. But
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: that's a twenty eight year old, twenty nine year old,
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: eight year veteran talking about twenty seven, twenty five year old.
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: Excuse me, Devin Witherspoon. That's just example of how young
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: the course still is. Jackson Smith and Jigba twenty two
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: is the NFL Offensive Player of the Year and one
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: hundred and sixty eight million dollars.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Player of the Year.
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: Yes he was. The NFL said so in the trophy
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: they handed him, that's right. He never did tell me
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: if he gave that trophy back or not. I don't
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: keep it, man, I would keep it as it. Yeah,
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: that's what keep saying that.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: I mean seriously, I would keep that.
• 30:13
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: The grandkids say I want it on both sides.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: Fourne is coming on to text on him already asked
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: you how concerned you are about the Rams. It seems
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: inevitable that they're gonna add Aaron Donald to Miles Garrett.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: The other question i'd ask you football NFL wise, who
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: are you expecting to surprise somebody that is under the
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: radar no one's talking about with the Seahawks, or is
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: a lesser known maybe along the tile cot of Vain.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: But someone you're looking to have a breakout season who
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: is not already a Seahawks star. Four nine four five
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: one will be back your text at eleven three. We'll
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: take any input you have about the Mariners. Were you
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: in the bullpen yesterday ready to come in the eleven
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: nothing game?
• 30:55
  Speaker 6: I mean throwing?
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: Are you going out their pregame today?
• 31:00
  Speaker 13: No?
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: Not today? No, we have Mike Benton on the beach today.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: Oh good, Mike will be out there.
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: And with all the alums who are coming back and
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: everything in the home run derby, I think you'll get
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: some great stuff and bent and I'll have it all
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: up on our social media at nine three to three
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: kjar on every single social media, there'll be plenty to
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: see if you can't get there.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: On the Newstribune dot com right now, I wrote a
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: story based off our interview es today with Monterey Foster.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: If you missed the interview with the substitute teacher from Cleveland,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: the sketches and its stories up at the Newstribune dot com.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Wide receiver in this camp trying to make it as
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: a special teams player and a reserve wide receiver, and
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: he says in his second year from Michigan State, he
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: didn't go out for football until his senior year at
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: Edwards High School in Lakewood, just west of downtown Cleveland.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: He was an all state basketball player who had two
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: Division one offers from Akron in Eastern Kentucky to play basketball,
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: and for years the head football coach there was asking
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: him to come out for football, and finally, after three
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: years of the guy began his senior year, he did,
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: and he made second team All Ohio in Division one,
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: which I can tell you was very hard to do.
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: I'd played Division two high school football state championship level
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: and played for two state titles in Ohio. The be
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: All State, a second team All State with one year,
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: only playing one year of high school.
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: It was really hard to do.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: Michigan State was his only top offer, so he took
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: that in football because of course it was in the
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Big Ten over his basketball offers. He stayed five years
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: at Michigan State, which in itself is rare in this
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: nil transfer portal era. The Seahawks notice that they noticed
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: players who stay. They've drafted a lot of players who
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: have stayed at their one school. Yeah, because there's relatively
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: few of them. They loved the loyalty piece of that.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: The story of Monterrey Foster. Then he was at a
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: local gym, like a Planet Fitness twenty four hour fitness
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: type gyms in Cleveland, and then struck up a conversation
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: with a twenty eight year old guy and he told
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: him he was trying to be staying for another call
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: from an NFL team. He'd just been in a Seahawks
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: training camp, injured his hamstring last summer and was waiting
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: for another call. And this guy said, I could throw
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: to you, and Monterrey Foster's like, who are you what
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: he said? It was just some random guy. Just luck
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: that it turned out to be a former quarterback in
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: Mayfield High School in suburban Cleveland.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: Who what Jake Dostell is his name, and I looked
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: him up and.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: I wrote it in the story of the News Tribune
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: about how this random guy in the gym became the
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: personal quarterback for Monterey Foster to get ready, he got
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: a call from the Seahawks last December to be on
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: the practice squad, ended up being on the practice squad
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: through the Super Bowl. Was at the Super Bowl and
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: what a super Bowl ring the unlikely story of Montree.
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: Foster and he brought it back to his high school.
• 33:45
  Speaker 5: I just thought that was such a good story too,
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: because he didn't talk about going back to Michigan State.
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: He talked about going back to his high school. And
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: if you guys didn't hear that interview, just go to
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: our podcast page on nine through three KJR and just
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: go to on demand and you'll see the Greg Bell
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: show that is up there and it is just fabulous
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: and it's someone you know. When we've talked about this,
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: how the cuts have changed where we just go from
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: immediate however, Yeah, ninety to fifty three instead of the
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: seventy five man cutdown.
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: And so if that if you're looking for a Cinderella,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: he is on my list.
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: Yes he is.
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: And yeah, so if you want someone to root for,
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: have a backstory for number eighty seven when you're watching
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: preseason games. Monty Foster junior from Saint Edwards High School
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: in lakewod, Ohio, had two nephews graduate from Sant EDGs.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: I know all about the program there up next week
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: ten twenty twenty four season was a pivot point in
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: the history of the Seahawks and in the Mike McDonald era.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: We'll explain that next live. I'm watching the eleven on
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: eleven scrimmages begin at the twelfth practice of Seahawks training
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: camp on ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: Hi, Welcome back, Happy.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: Friday, Greg Bell at the Seahawks training camp. Justin McIntyre
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: back at the La Bay Studios in Seattle. You can
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: hear in the background they typed in the recorded crowd
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: noise from Loomenfield, first time in training camp. They've done
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: that now that they've gone to eleven on eleven. There
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: are fans here, a lot of them, A thousand or
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: so from sideline end zone to end zone on the
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: grass burn. But yeah, the first time they put in
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: the crowd noise. They'll be at Loomenfield tomorrow for a
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: fan fest practice. This first team offense going against the
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: second team defense right now in front of me, eleven
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: on eleven. What I just saw during the break that
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: it only in training camp moments. Cooper Cup against Devin
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: Witherspoon one on one in a past drive, and it
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: was they're in shells and helmets. But Witherspoon jammed Cup
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: really hard at the line of scrimmage, and Cup put
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: two shoulder headfakes on him to the outside and got
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: inside across Witherspoon's face, caught a slant pass from Jayalen Milroad,
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: Sam Darnold and Drew Locke from the other end doing
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: a run drill.
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: But yeah, Witherspoon was not happy when Cup caught that
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: slam pass on it. He was just punching at.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: The ball as the ball arrived and Cup held onto it. Yeah,
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: that was best on best. You're never going to see
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: that anymore in the regular season. Cooper Cup against Devin Witherspoon.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: You'd certainly see it out here in training camp. Witherspoon
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: doesn't like to lose a single rep, and he is
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: pretty upset and he threw his head back because he's
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: pretty upset about giving up that one.
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: There was a.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: Pivotal point that our friend Shield Caapadia outline statistically this
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: morning online. Chilkabati used to be the ESPN dot com
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: beat writer for the Seahawks. I became a friend of
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: his during that time when he was out here in
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: Seattle half a dozen years ago. So now he's back
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: in Philadelphia, right for the Ringer. I think he's still
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: with the athletic excuse me, based in Philadelphia. But in
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: November twenty twenty four, go back to the first season
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: for Mike McDonald, first one leading the Seahawks, first time
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: as the head coach at any level. The run defense
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: was absolutely terrible. They're getting dragged. They're at the bottom
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: of the league in run defense. Went against everything McDonald
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: stood for as a defensive head coach. No physicality, no
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: dictating toward the offense. Is reactive, not proactive, not pressing
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: before this absolutely trash. Can the two starting linebackers Jerome Baker,
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: Tyrel Dotson gone mid season rare that an NFL team
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: cans both they're inside starting middle linebuckers. In the middle
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: of the season, he got GM John Snyder to trade
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: for Ernest Jones to be his new middle linebacker. Since
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: that point, Schiocapati had pointed out that the Seahawks had
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: a buy in Week ten of Mike McDonald's first season
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: in early November, after those moves to bring in Jones
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: and get rid of Dotson and Baker. Since that point, Jess,
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: when they've gone twenty three and five.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that is a pivotal stat right there.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: And only one team has beaten him by more than
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: four points over those twenty eight games, and they won
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: a Super Bowl. That's what Mike McDonald did when he
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: got rid of his middle linebackers and got one that
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: he knew could tackle, and guys would when he hit him,
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: they would go to the ground and I get dragged
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: like Terrell Dotson and Jerome Baker were getting dragged. The
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: Seahawks end up missing the playoffs that year. Remember that
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: they were ten and seven and just a couple of
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: years ago, I'm sure you remember that they lost on
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: a tiebreaker. They won the series finale to the Rams,
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: but they lost on a tiebreaker because the Rams had
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: beaten Arizona in the final seconds. The week before that
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: finale was the game that Gino Smith cash in like
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: four or five million dollars and then sent a bonuses.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: It was they lost ten. They end up ten and
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: seven but missed the playoffs. But that season showed the players,
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: especially the veterans like Leonard Williams and Julian Love and
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: Ernest Jones, that first McDonald knew what he was doing schematically,
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: because let's face it, he was a thirty six year old,
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: first time head coach, only a couple of years younger
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: than some of the players, and he done it before
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: as a headman, and that season was a proving one
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: for him that these guys said, this guy knows what
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: he's doing. And the other thing, of course it did,
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: was it laid the foundation for the culture, for the
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: togetherness that this team has. And it all started in
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: week ten of the twenty twenty four season when Ernest
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Jones came in. When they people ask me all the
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: time who I think the most valuable Seahawks are, I
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: say Devin Witherspoon one, Ernest Jones two. Because of how
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: pivotal Jones was to how McDonald wants to play defense
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: from a leadership aspect, it was, he's just the tip,
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: the quintessential Mike McDonald middle inside lineback of signal caller
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: to understand anything else in the traffic cop And he's
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: found a home here. They've givenhim a thirty three million
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: dollar contract to stay.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: But kudos to Shield for pivoting finding the pivotal point
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: in the regime.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: He drilled down there Greg twenty three and.
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: Eight weekend of twenty twenty four. Yeah, he did.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Dante Fowler saw all of that from Afar last year.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: He could have signed with the Seahawks this time last year.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Odden Dirty, his former defensive line coach in Atlanta, and
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: Dallas tried to get him to. Marcus Lawrence's former Cowboys teammate,
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: tried to get Dante Fowler here to Seattle last year.
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: He chose Dallas instead, and he regrets that move.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: You'll hear him laugh about that when I bring it
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: up to him yesterday, and you'll hear why Dante Fowler
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: decided to come this year instead. The veteran addresser in
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: his twelfth NFL training camp, you'll hear from him next
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: from Seahawks training camp in rent and your text and
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: talkbacks at eleven thirty will read those back then on

• 41:44
  Speaker 2: and I had to look up what they were there

• 46:04
  Speaker 11: great pros, and this is everything that defense have from
• 46:07
  Speaker 11: the top to the bottom. Even with the coaching staff,
• 46:10
  Speaker 11: the way that they'd developed the players, the way that
• 46:12
  Speaker 11: they coached the players is something I think is.
• 46:15
  Speaker 10: A football player stream.
• 46:19
  Speaker 5: Guys out there.
• 46:20
  Speaker 10: Yeah, we bonding and of course, you know, we go

  Speaker 10: all the way back.
• 46:23
  Speaker 11: You know, me and Leonard Williams, we were both from

  Speaker 11: Florida and we came out in the same high school
• 46:27

• 46:34
  Speaker 11: like that. And you know, of course being with the
• 46:37
  Speaker 11: Marcus Lawrence, I feel like when I came from Atlanta
• 46:39
  Speaker 11: to Dallas, just him taking me on the defense wing
• 46:43
  Speaker 11: helped me grow a lot and was able to help
• 46:47
  Speaker 11: me be able to be the person that I was
• 46:50
  Speaker 11: in Washington and be able to take on that role
• 46:53
  Speaker 11: by myself. I think it was a lot that the
• 46:55
  Speaker 11: Marcus had to do with that, just taking taking me
• 46:58
  Speaker 11: out of his wing and showing me how to go
• 47:00
  Speaker 11: about things and stuff like that.
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: How much did they try to get you before a
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: last season.
• 47:06
  Speaker 11: I don't know about how much they tried to, but
• 47:08
  Speaker 11: you know, me and A D we had a couple
• 47:10
  Speaker 11: of talks and stuff like that, and you know, I
• 47:13
  Speaker 11: didn't end up working out, uh that way.
• 47:15
  Speaker 10: But I'm here now and I'm happy to be here.
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: Kicking itself a little bit for that choice.
• 47:21
  Speaker 11: Definitely for sure, but you know, still blessed and still
• 47:26
  Speaker 11: happy just to be uh, you know, in the league,
• 47:29
  Speaker 11: in the NFL. Definitely happy to be back with A
• 47:33
  Speaker 11: D and the Marcus and this great defense is.
• 47:35
  Speaker 4: What they're asking you to do really similar to what
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: you've got in the past, and especially what they did.
• 47:39
  Speaker 11: Yeah, really just you know, go out there, get after
• 47:42
  Speaker 11: the quarterback, put pressure on the quarterback. And if I'm
• 47:44
  Speaker 11: out there first and second down, be stout in the
• 47:46
  Speaker 11: run game. Pretty I disrespect the man he is. You know,
• 47:59
  Speaker 11: he got it out them. You know, he got it
• 48:01
  Speaker 11: out the hard way. He's from London, he's not from here.
• 48:04
  Speaker 11: And you know, his high his his i q of
• 48:07
  Speaker 11: football is just impressive. I love like his passion, his
• 48:12
  Speaker 11: intent of the game. The way he coaches his players,
• 48:15
  Speaker 11: that's what I like the most. Like he demanded something
• 48:17
  Speaker 11: out of his players. He's not just telling them what
• 48:20
  Speaker 11: like the exis and those like he's the He's going
• 48:22
  Speaker 11: to demand it out of you and he's going to
• 48:24
  Speaker 11: ask you questions and he wants you to answer it
• 48:27
  Speaker 11: the right way and.
• 48:27
  Speaker 10: Stuff like that.
• 48:28
  Speaker 11: So just the way, just the way that see And
• 48:39
  Speaker 11: that's that's why I'm happy to be here right literally
• 48:42
  Speaker 11: right there. But just the man that he is, and
• 48:47
  Speaker 11: you know, just being able to have a coach like
• 48:49
  Speaker 11: that to be able to teach you on and off
• 48:51
  Speaker 11: the field, That's something I really love about him.
• 48:53
  Speaker 4: Did they do anything for your birthday, Frank or anything?
• 48:58
  Speaker 11: No, they just shouted me out into uh, the team
• 49:01
  Speaker 11: meeting room. But you know, I'm getting up there, so
• 49:04
  Speaker 11: I kind of don't want people to know that it's
• 49:06
  Speaker 11: my birthday. Yeah, it was the under Armored All American Game.
• 49:12
  Speaker 11: It's basically all the Parade or Blue Trip All Americans.
• 49:15
  Speaker 11: It's like the Army Game.
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So the tough start you had to your career,
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: I think by and like.
• 49:23
  Speaker 11: Yeah, first thirty minutes of Ricky Minnie Camp, whole experience
• 49:27
  Speaker 11: like that. It was just a dark moment in my life.
• 49:32
  Speaker 11: It just sucked because I felt really good and I
• 49:36
  Speaker 11: really believed that I was, like my rookie year going
• 49:41
  Speaker 11: to like I just I believe it. I was going
• 49:43
  Speaker 11: to be a generational player, went rookie out of the
• 49:46
  Speaker 11: year all that, and all that just went like you know,
• 49:49
  Speaker 11: out the roof and I had to recover for nine months.
• 49:53
  Speaker 10: And I did that. But definitely a tough moment in
• 49:56
  Speaker 10: my life.
• 49:57
  Speaker 11: But when I look back on it, where I am
• 49:59
  Speaker 11: now just happy to be able to uh say that
• 50:02
  Speaker 11: I was that it built me and it made me
• 50:04
  Speaker 11: until the man I am. As far as challenge is
• 50:06
  Speaker 11: dealing with, you know, tough things, knowing that it's not
• 50:09
  Speaker 11: going to always you know, be right there and everything
• 50:11
  Speaker 11: is going to pass over, and uh, you know, just
• 50:14
  Speaker 11: staying true to myself and just putting in the works,
• 50:17
  Speaker 11: you know, so I can still be a football player.
• 50:19
  Speaker 10: What did you learn about yourself from that time that
• 50:22
  Speaker 10: you know.
• 50:23
  Speaker 11: It's going to be hard times and you can't go
• 50:25
  Speaker 11: around it. You got to go through it. And you know,
• 50:28
  Speaker 11: that's what I learned about it. Just you know, no
• 50:31
  Speaker 11: matter how hard time it's going to be in life,
• 50:33
  Speaker 11: you know, you just got to keep battling and you
• 50:35
  Speaker 11: got to keep going through things. If you stay true
• 50:37
  Speaker 11: to yourself, stay true to your mission, and you have
• 50:40
  Speaker 11: faith in yourself, you'll always be good at the end
• 50:42
  Speaker 11: of the day.
• 50:43
  Speaker 10: And that was just a completely fluty, non contact kind
• 50:45
  Speaker 10: of thing. Yeah, it was weird because basically it was
• 50:51

• 50:54
  Speaker 11: I knew something bad was going to happen that that day,

  Speaker 11: and uh, I just remember like the coach said, something
• 50:59
  Speaker 11: good is going to happen to day, something's bad going
• 51:01
  Speaker 11: to happen to day, and I was just like, oh shit.

• 52:15
  Speaker 11: know they say the winter will like show your true

• 53:14
  Speaker 2: the only one who talks about the Eagles and the
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: setting and the weather.
• 53:18
  Speaker 5: I just love the awe that people are in and
• 53:21
  Speaker 5: you know, some of that comes from people who are
• 53:24
  Speaker 5: out there every single day.
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: I had Rich Gonzalez come up to me a couple
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: of years ago, and he's out there. He's worth there
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: for ever, and he will.

  Speaker 5: I love that. It is just a majestic thing that
• 53:40
  Speaker 5: we are lucky to witness.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Not only that the weather. Dante Fowler is from Saint Petersburg, Florida.
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: He played for the University of Florida. He's used the
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: summer football training when it's ninety five degrees and ninety
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: percent humidity and just sweat dripping off you and you're
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: wet when you get out of the shower and you
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: stay wet all day.
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: That's the South in the summer.
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: And these SEC guys come out here and they can't
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: believe that we call eighty degrees hot and they have
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: heat advisories for eighty five and they're like, well, it's
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: not even humid. There's a breeze off the lake. Much
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: better breeze, by the way today than there has been
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: all week. With the smoke and the wildfires on the
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: eastern side of the state. But yeah, even the hot
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: days here at Seahawks training camp not hot to the players.
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: They talk about that a lot too.
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: They don't talk about the weather as much when it's December,
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: but they're playing meaningful football games by then. But yeah,
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: this setting, I've said it before. I've covered NAPA training camp,
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks and NAPA training camp of Cowboys and Oxnard
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: the forty nine ers when they were in red the
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: interior of Auburn and Carmichael in that area in California.
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: This is unique. This really is unique, and the setting
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: and all of it. And that's one thing that Hard
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: Knocks showed the other night. I thought that leading the
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: scene with the eagle and showing off the space needle
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: in the overhead shots and the drone shots along Lake Washington.
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: Those of us, like you said, those of us are
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: out here. We take it for granted. We're out here
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: all the time. But this is not the NFL norm
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: nor the American norm either. But I guess that's why
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: gas is six dollars a gallon and houses cost two
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: million dollars and all of that.
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: There is that four nine four one and the commodage
• 55:23

• 56:19
  Speaker 2: What I was gonna say in the text I already
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: asked about Aaron Donald, What do you I'm saying, you're
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: not concerned about Donald. He's washed up, He's thirty five.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: We'll see how washed up he is. But I ask
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: you about who you want to see maybe under the
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: radar seahawk that you're expecting to have a huge season from.
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: I think Aj Barner stands to have a gigantic season
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: in this offense under a tight end coach, offensive coordinator
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: and Brian Flurry. Flurry was the tight ends coach the
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: last four years for Kyle Shanahan and the forty nine ers.
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: I could see, and I'm already seeing it on the
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: field in training camp, a George Kittle like usage of
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: AJ Barner. I'm not saying that Barner is as good
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: as Kittle is or was. I'm saying that that Fleury's
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: going to use him in much the same way. The
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: other thing I'm seeing in training camp, the use of
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: the tight ends further down the field of Isijah Royo,
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: even Eric Salbert mainly known as a blocker, special teams player, Barnard,
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: They're all running down the field deep. While we were
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: talking earlier in this show, Barner did a wheel route
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: that ran past Bud Clark for about a sixty yard
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: touchdown from Sam Donald in a ones versus two eleven
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: on eleven scrimmage, another vertical passing game play from a
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: tight end.
• 57:29
  Speaker 4: The other things he.
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: Doing with tight ends and motioned him quite a bit
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: right before the snap, a lot of times, putting him
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: on the wing and motioning him back to a full back.
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: We talked to Brian Fleury. I asked him, Brian Fleury
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: the other day the offensive coordinated about any concern with
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: Robbie Huts's injury, about a relative lack of depth at
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: running back, especially now your top fullback is out indefinitely.
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: He said, we'll make do with that.
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: We got Brady Russell, we got tight ends that can
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: play fullback like roles. While they're doing that, they're moving
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: tight ends from wings back into the backfield in motion
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: right before the snap. And another characteristic of this Brian
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: Fleury offense that's already shown up is throwing to the
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: running backs. They are I have been talking to you
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: since the beginning of camp about it, but every day
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: a lot of throws to the quarter from the quarterbacks
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: in scrimmaging in eleven on eleven in red zone and
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: short yardage and regular middle of the field and hurry
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: up throws to the running backs. The forty nine ers
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: with Brian Flurry as the run game coordinator in tight
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: ends coast last year, the forty nine Ers threw thirty
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: four percent of their completions to running backs. Christian McCaffrey,
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: of course, had one hundred and two catches last year,
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: top ten in the league as a running back thirty
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: four percent of the forty nine ers completions with the
• 58:41
  Speaker 2: running backs. The Seahawks had just sixteen percent of their
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: completions to running backs last season with Klint Kubiak, So
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: that's another difference in this offense, throwing to running backs more.
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: That should help George Hallani be a third down force.
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: That's one of the reasons he made the team out
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: of Boise State as an undrafted rookie was his work
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: the third down back and past catching and past blocking.
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: That've really been working with Jedarian Price, the rookie first
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: round pick, to get him up the speed to an
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: NFL running back level. In the past game he didn't
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: do much of it at Notre Dame as a backup
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: to Jeremiah love Price. By the way, I don't see
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: on the field today. In the twelfth practice and training
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: cap I'll try to find out where he is and
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: whether it's an injury issue or an excusal or what
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: have you.
• 59:24
  Speaker 4: On the twelfth practice of training camp, I'm next.
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: Your chance to be a part of the show. We
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: do it every day at eleven thirty. Jessman wants your
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: talkbacks so we can play them back.
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: I don't have any yet.
• 59:34
  Speaker 10: Come on.
• 59:34
  Speaker 5: I know you're going on your weekend vacations because it's
• 59:37
  Speaker 5: still the summer for some of you out there. I
• 59:40
  Speaker 5: know it's not for Guig anymore, but yeah, center man,
• 59:44
  Speaker 5: center man. You want to know the concern level of
• 59:47
  Speaker 5: Aaron Donald. What are you for the Mariners right now?
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: All Seimothy the fiftieth anniversary Chuck talked this morning about
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: who the worst Mariners and Mariner history were Sean Figgins.
• 59:59
  Speaker 4: Eric bar for me, oh yeah, I was, I was.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 5: I came here after Badard, but Sean Figgins is on
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 5: the top of my list for sure.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: Eric Baard went the very first spring training start. I
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: was covering the Mariners for the Associated Press and we
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: were down in Peoria. You go down during spring training games,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: you leave in the middle of the game and they
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: make an announcement in the press starting pitchers available in
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: the in the clubhouse right now, because then they get
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: showered and they leave during the game. And we went
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: down to talk to Eric Badard after his first spring
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: training start. He pitched three innings or whatever, and we're
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: all in there and John Hickey of the Seattle p
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: I I also covered the a's with him when he
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: was at the Oakland Tribune. I remember John Hickey.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: Remember, yeah, you know, I remember the whole thing.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: Yes, but everyone Eric Badard came to all of us
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: waiting for him. He got out a shower in the
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: clubhouse at Mariner Spring training in Peory. He said, all right, y'all,
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: you got five questions. And John Hickey, the Seattle p I, said,
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: WI only five, and Badard looked at him and said,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: that's one.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 12: Yep, yep.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: That was Eric Badard.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: I do understand why he would make the list.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 4: And not to vettion.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: He would pull himself after out, after ninety pitches, whether
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: they were winning losing, whether it's five innings, seven eight,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: he was done.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 4: He was taking his checks and going home.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 6: He was not into it.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: He just was not into it.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: Eddie was not good either, and they spent a lot
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: to get him, including a future All Star center field
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: Do you remember that? I mean they traded a good
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: load to the Baltimore Orials to get Eric Padard as
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: their East pitcher. He was their openings a starter one year.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: And he says, how many questions there? You got five questions?
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 4: Mike? He says wild five And he said, that's one.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 3: That's one.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 4: That's our relationship.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: I heard he was kind of a creep too.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 4: He was in more ways than one. That's right, he was.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 4: But you can you chime in on that? Who you
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 4: your memories of Mariners? You'd rather forget up? Next? Your
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 4: chance to be part of the show that's coming.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: Dowt's text line and talkbacks are coming up on ninety
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: three point three kJ RFM.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 12: Hey, they're Greg and Jess. You know, between the Mariners,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 12: the Sounders and the Storm, the three teams that are
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 12: playing right now for our city, you all suck. You
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 12: can't win a game, you can't rally your team.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 13: What are you doing?
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 12: And I'm more interested in going to Loomen tomorrow, not
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 12: for a game. We're talking about practice.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 13: Du Justin Ackley might not be the worst Mariner of
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 13: all time, but he gave us hope and then he
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 13: just just pooped it away, man like.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 4: He just We were all so excited.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 13: We were thinking that he was gonna be a cornerstone
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 13: for this franchise for a decade, and then one half
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 13: a season he's amazing.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 12: The next rest of his career, he's just garbage.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 14: All right, all right, And I'm trying to sleep in
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 14: it's not really working, but I have this Friday off.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 14: Jimothy's probably safe somewhere in western Washington, and I'm over
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 14: here with horrible air quality and spoken but one of
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 14: the worst Mariners of all time, Bobby Ayala, who else
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 14: we got? Well, I'm just still waiting for the Seattle
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 14: SuperSonics to come back, and Darien Price is gonna have
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 14: a big year.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 3: Well, thank you the late comers to the party.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 4: Bobby gives me nightmares.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: I was the AP national sports writer covering the Mariners,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: and I had to do deadline and stories that within
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: five minutes of the game ending had to be on
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: the wire. So I'm writing running every day day game
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: nig didn't matter, and the Mariners would have a lead
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: and Bobby Alla would come in and half the time
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: he'd blow the save and the story would completely flip
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: and you go from leading with the Mariners to leading
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: with the visiting team all and I'm spanning about five minutes.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 4: That happened so many times with Bobby Iola. That's that
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 4: gives me nightmares of a writer and trying to write
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 4: coh stories.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 3: There's always like that person.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 5: As much as I absolutely loved Mike reach Rip and everything,
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 5: it was impossible. He made my job so hard and
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 5: we were friends too, and he made a game out
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 5: of it. Covering him was very difficult.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 4: Made a game out of you had to chase him
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: off the field.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 3: Yes, he loved but like I said, how would you
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 3: get him? I sprinted. I did Wain sprints on the weekends,
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 3: just to you know, be trained. Yeah, I got.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 5: I got caught on camera a couple of times doing that,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 5: and people were trying to come to my defense.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 3: I'm like, no, it's a chess match, Like he's always
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 3: playing chess and I got him every time.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 4: Was he running?
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 10: Yeah?
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 5: My interviews sounded like crap, by the way, because I'm like, so, Roja,
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 5: what was the hardest.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 3: On that fourth and one. What was your decision going.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 4: Into it for going for it? What was the hardest
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 4: stadium to track him down from the sideline to the
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 4: locker room?
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: Wells situational. It wasn't necessary.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 5: Oh, there there are some where it's a very short
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 5: where you only have like ten feet and you're walking
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 5: right behind. But the hardest time I had was at Stanford,
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 5: even though I had the whole distance to the tunnel.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 5: That's when he's sprinted. We were down twenty to ten
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 5: at the half at Stanford and he was so mad
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 5: and I think we had missed a field goal right
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 5: like he actually chose to take the points, which he
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 5: really didn't like to do.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and uh and they didn't get the points and
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 3: he was so mad. We came back and won that game.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 4: By the way, that's a good story. I'm telling you.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get a lot of jutment stories out about
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: Leach during the season.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's there's so many.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 5: And people just really thought he was being rude to
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 5: me and mean, I'm like, no, he's treating me like
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 5: a competitor and we are in a battle right now
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 5: and I'm gonna win.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: And guess what, I've won every single time.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 4: Good for you, Corat, that's a badge of honor.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 3: He made me sound like crap. But but yeah, anyone
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 3: who ever thought like they needed to come to my defense.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 3: And I get how it looks, but I knew.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 5: I was like, Oh, if he didn't respect me, he
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 5: just stand there and say some you know, generic answers.
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 3: But he yelled at me and stuff. Yeah, it was awesome.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: I missed him so much, like the Kumadads tax on
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: fot find four or five one forty five says Milton Bradley,
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: one of the worst Mariners.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 4: I believe he didn't break over two hundred batting average
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 4: in twenty ten. Had off field issues.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: To our US Coast Guard listener, I had a really
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: oddly good relationship with Milton Bradley when covering the Mariners.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, but he ended up being a bad guy.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah he was.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: He was a lot of problems off the field and
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: accusations of domestic violence and other things.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 4: And he was a live wire. Comeous I did he.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 4: I used to wear cable sweaters in the open air
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 4: press box a T mobile park was He would always compliment,
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 4: what'd you get that sweater?
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: It looked like like an Irish spring sweater or something
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: from Scotland or something, and he would he would, would
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: you get that sweater?
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 4: You can give me?
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: One of those was the old structure you remember structure
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: when we were kids, structures around.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 4: It was a clothing brand off of the Gap. I
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 4: think it was only an Ohio thing.
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't recall that the.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 4: Structure was a store. That's where I had gotten that.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: Uh two fine three asked me, you've witnessed practices after
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 2: coach Carrol's Super Bowl win and now coach McDonald's Super
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: Bowl win. Any similarities or differences after they're huge wins
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: of how they conduct practices.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: That's a good question, and yes there are differences. McDonald's
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: practices are much longer, they are on much different paces.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: As I mentioned earlier, sometimes they're walking pace. They're literally
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 2: walking through the plays eleven on eleven in pads. And
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: Carol was full tilt, highly competitive, high energy at all times,
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 2: but then shorter and sometimes they were an hour and
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: when they were done, they were done. And McDonald, I
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: mean so Carol would do his teaching on the White
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 2: Border film room. McDonald does his teaching on the field
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: in formation and the guys walk through. That's the difference.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 4: And the longest.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 2: Practices I've seen of the three camps i've covered to
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: McDonald have been this week three hours long.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 4: It was interesting.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: The other day it was it was Wednesday, the longest
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: practice of camp yet. It was the hottest practice camp.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: He was eighty eight degrees, was really smoky, and it
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: went three hours. And in the next to last, next
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: to last scrimmage series long. They were doing long possessions,
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: flowing from one end of the field the other. Whether
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 2: the offense picked up a first down or not, they
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: just kept marchin to keep the defense on the field
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 2: for a long time.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 4: And at the end of that long series scrimmage, thirty
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 4: two year old, twelve year veteran Leonard Williams was blowing
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 4: up plays in the backfield. Three in a row.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 2: He ruined, and I thought to myself, here's the guy
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: who's made one hundred and seventy million dollars.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 4: He just won the Super Bowl, he just got married,
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 4: he just had a first kid.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: He's in his twelfth NFL training camp, running down plays
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 2: from the back and blowing up plays in the backfield.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 2: At the end of a three hour practice on a
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: Wednesday in August. That told me a lot about Leonard Wins.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: And after the practice, Derek Hall actually mentioned if that
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: series of plays I'm unsolicited, He says, you want to
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 2: know about Letter Williams. He blew up three plays in
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: a row end of a three hour practice. We all
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: look at that and like, well, if you could do that,
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: we should be able to do that at twenty four
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: to twenty.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 3: Six years leading by example right there.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And but the point of that long story was
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: under Pete Carroll, they would have been out there at
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 2: that point. They would have been already in the meeting
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: room looking at the film practice whenever that long.
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 3: Okay, we have a couple more talkbacks.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 12: Hey, their show Another beautiful day in the Northwest. I'm
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 12: gonna predict tonight's game, beautiful day ruined by another Mariner's loss.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 12: Mariners lose to Tampa Bay five to four because Munios
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 12: has to come in with a run around base and
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 12: blows it, gives up a two run homer, and then
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 12: we can't hit in the bottom of the ninth. So
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 12: enjoy the stupid home run show and that god awful
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 12: Jimothy Crap.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: Worst Mariners of all I'm Mario Mendoza and Mike Zanino.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 4: Terrible.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: Remember the Seahawks are not afraid of the Rams or
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: Aaron Donald.

  Speaker 15: Uh, I saw you know what jumped out of me?
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 15: I Jalen Millrolf of making a couple of nice plays

  Speaker 15: again like I, I, oh, he's had a really good
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 15: week and hap man, I'm telling you it quietly. They've
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 15: got to be thrilled like this, and we I think
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 15: you and I talked about this, and I've talked about
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 15: with other people. They've got a four year window with him.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 4: Yes they do. They don't need him to be ready
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 4: this year.
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 15: But you really, I'm sure they went you really need
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 15: to see some growth from year one to year two.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 15: And the first one what basically OTAs in mini camps.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 15: We didn't really see that.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 4: He was very inaccurate in the spring.
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 15: But now all of a sudden, this dude's he's slinging
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 15: it like I I make him looks like good decisions.
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 15: I saw him go through progressions, you know, so it was.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 15: It's it's been fun, man, it's been fun watching him.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 6: Got The competition at wide receiver is going to be crazy.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 15: Yeah, you know, I think it just comes down to, like,
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 15: which guys are do you think can get through the
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 15: the to practice squad because they'll be deep there.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 4: But how many play on special teams.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 15: Right, and that's and all those guys are battling for that.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 15: That's why the preseason is big for those dudes. But yeah, no,
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 15: Judarian Price, I don't think today.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 4: I haven't seen it. Yeah.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 6: I looked out and see him either, So reason for that.
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 6: He was there yesterday walk through. Coach isn't talking today, right, correct?
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's no good.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 15: Maybe he'll talk to the to the national guys, you know,
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 15: maybe that's uh, I'm quite certain of that. Yeah, yeah, oh,
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 15: I'm I'm very certain of that. Yeah, Rapping mean it
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 15: to come here for giggles.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 4: So you ask, you ask Rappaport of the quid pro quo.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 4: The other half of his favorite to John Schneider is.
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 6: Is what now the other day?
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 15: And oh yeah, yeah, you know we talked. So yeah,
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 15: I'll go, what's the speaking of how the sausage is made?
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 6: Sorry, no, no, no, no, no, all good. This is
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 6: how the sausage is made.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 15: Rapp is running around, he's doing live shots every ten minutes,
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 15: and so he cleared out a few minutes for us.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 6: So we just taped an interview.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 15: We're going to play probably at one o'clock today I think,
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 15: And so we'll do that and we'll either we'll play
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 15: it sometime in the first hour or to the show.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 15: But he yeah, we went through the whole what happened,
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 15: how is the hard Knocks, what's going on? Where are
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 15: they in the contract?
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 6: We'll get to that. He mentioned a lot of things.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 6: I'll just leave it at that for now.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 4: So it was good.
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 6: It was very good.
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 15: Actually, I think our listeners are going to actually and
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 15: it's not just eleven twelve minutes with an insider, it's
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 15: eleven or twelve minutes of here's how it works works,
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 15: which he's how what he does because I think a
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 15: lot of people when they saw that stuff with on
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 15: Hard Knocks are like, well, not.
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: To mention his line of work and what they do
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 2: is under a microscope. Now, one from the criticism of
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: Adam Schefner gets for scratching the back. Yes, the emails
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: with the Washington commanders, check my mail and the Diana
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 2: ever see.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 15: Anything one hundred percent? And you know, I think for
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 15: for and here's the thing, like, those guys are one
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 15: hundred percent graded on and their job performance is based
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 15: on what are you breaking like? And and he's on
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 15: the same team I asked Hm about Schefter kind of
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 15: being on the same team with Adam Schefter now and
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 15: what that's like.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 6: So he talks about that.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 15: But yeah, I mean their entire like the whole time
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 15: he's in here, and I've been with him before on
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 15: the road and he's been here. I mean the phone,
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 15: he's just it's the phone's going all the time. Like
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 15: he doesn't get like I you got to be a
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 15: special kind of nuts to want.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 4: To do that job.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 15: To be honest with you, outside you have no life.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 15: I mean, it's always going. It's it's it's always going.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 15: So we'll talk about Witherspoon's contract, where we're at. I
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 15: ask about Aaron Donald and stuff, some other stuff. But yeah,
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 15: they kind of he talked a lot about the conversation
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 15: he had afterwards, goes yep, Schneider did call. They'll explain
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 15: what was said in that one too. So it's a
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 15: fun conversation with rap coming up. I'm excited for that
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 15: so to play for our listeners. And you know here
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 15: on this fiftieth anniversary weekend.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 16: Greg, it is what do you look at? Are you
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 16: gonna go out to the yard and all this? I
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 16: think Sunday, Yeah, I think Sunday, Yeah, I'm going tonight. Yeah, yeah, Sunday.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 16: I think I'm gonna find my way out there. And
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 16: you're not going for Jimithy night. Tonight they're doing it again.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 16: You know that they're doing it again. Nineteen nothing.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 4: They've lost their last two defeats and they've going back
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 4: to that wealth tonight. They don't need to do it tonight.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 6: And that's what I'm curious. Why are they doing it tonight.
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 2: They must have extra they must have extra cards or
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 2: extra trading cards or whatever it is, so exactly, Yeah,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: twenty one to four.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 6: They get out scored in that series only by home runs.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 4: If they don't have home runs, they don't score. They don't.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: When it's not a sustainable model, the team everyone gets
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: on Wilson. Jered Depoto handed Wilson a team that could
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 2: only hit.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 15: Home runs, and I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna go
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 15: down with this ship. I'm gonna tell you right now.
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 15: I I think most people, especially people who really are
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 15: there every day in fall baseball, if they would be
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 15: honest with themselves, they would say, yeah, a managerial change
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 15: should happen, it needs to be made. But At the
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 15: same time, this this at some point falls on the players,
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 15: like it has to fall in the like like like
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 15: we live in a world where we're gonna like I
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 15: don't hear a lot of and I feel like I
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 15: do this every day. Cal Rawley is letting this team down.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 15: There's there's just no no way around that. So is
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 15: Josh Naylor, so is Julio for the most part. And
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 15: in terms of offense, if your name isn't Randy Rose, Arena,
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 15: Cole Young or for the most part, dom can Zone,
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 15: nobody else in that offense has been worth a crap
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 15: this year. Those are the guys that have let him down. Roade,
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 15: Brian Wu has let them down. Bryce Miller yesterday though, man,
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 15: I gotta wonder about his elbow and and the Luke
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 15: Raley news comes out. I'm sorry, I don't want to
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 15: offend Justin Hollander.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 6: Really that story.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 4: Really, Yeah, that's we didn't even talk about that.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 3: That is.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 6: That's malpractice, man?
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 4: Is it not kept playing? Yeah? Yept playing And it's
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 4: not like that wasn't over the top bat you had
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 4: to keep in the lineup.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 15: No, dude's getting courtzon shots. He's a baseball player. Yeah,
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 15: like I get Cortizone here, like you get you got
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 15: one game a week.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 6: I don't know, man, but you're right.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 4: Dan Wilson's not in the batter's box trying to pull
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 4: pictures on the outside half of the plague game. He's
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 4: a one. But there is an organization philosophy toward latch
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 4: angle and exit loo.
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 15: If I never see the graphics say's exit v low again,
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 15: I'll be thrilled. You know what, fifty players gonna be
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 15: are gonna be honored this weekend. The majority of those
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 15: guys never had a graphic come up and say exit view.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 15: Like if Griffy hit a long fly ball foul and
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 15: then he struck out the next at bat with runners
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 15: on in a big position, no one ever said, but
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 15: boy boy, he his exit fielo was really good.
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 6: It was that was a bad at bat. And I
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 6: bet Ken would tell you the same thing.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 4: Thank you. Martinez wasn't a big disciple of exit philosophy.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 4: Lago shoot me out. Yeah, Hi, what do you got next?
• 1:19:30
