Chuck & Buck 12-1 Hour 2: 12th Man News with Gregg Bell, MacDonald says & Kiffin is at it again. · Chuck in the Morning

0:02
Speaker 1: After you see, I was second and six for the Seahawks,
0:05
Speaker 1: sharpening again over the last side breaks, the tackle got up,
0:09
Speaker 1: Stree tucksdown first of the day for the Seahawks offense.
0:22
Speaker 1: Joe Davis on the call on Fox yesterday the Seahawks
0:25
Speaker 1: twenty six nothing win over the Minnesota Vikings, he I
0:29
Speaker 1: don't know why he was calling an NFL game between
0:32
Speaker 1: the Seahawks and Vikings, and yet I could just feel
0:34
Speaker 1: him rooting for the Dodgers.
0:37
Speaker 2: Yeah.
0:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know what it was about. The entire broadcast.
0:40
Speaker 1: He was annoying the hell out of me. Well, yesterday
0:43
Speaker 1: with his game call.
0:45
Speaker 3: I will say yesterday was surprising because it was Greg
0:48
Speaker 3: Olsen with him, right, Yeah, it was the first day
0:50
Speaker 3: that Greg Olsen.
0:51
Speaker 4: Didn't annoy me as much as he.
0:53
Speaker 3: I just think he talks too much usually, Like sometimes
0:57
Speaker 3: like it just seems like he's talking endlessly. I'm like,
1:00
Speaker 3: you don't need to just fill every vom.
1:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess there's some truth to that. Some people
1:04
Speaker 1: were comparing it to sounding like a podcast instead of
1:07
Speaker 1: yeah a game a game.
1:10
Speaker 4: Yeah, when take the snap, I don't need you to
1:12
Speaker 4: still be talking.
1:14
Speaker 1: He does insert his opinion a lot too. Yeah, all right,
1:17
Speaker 1: seven o'clock hour, Good morning to you all. I hope
1:19
Speaker 1: you had a great Thanksgiving weekend. We got a lot
1:22
Speaker 1: of football to discuss today. Greg Bell will be joining
1:24
Speaker 1: us here in a matter of a couple of minutes,
1:26
Speaker 1: and then Hugh Milling at eight o'clock. Mike homeran at
1:29
Speaker 1: nine o'clock to talk about a twenty six nothing shut
1:31
Speaker 1: out went over the Minnesota Vikings. That improved the Seahawks
1:34
Speaker 1: two nine and three on the year. The Rams lost yesterday,
1:39
Speaker 1: so they are also nine and three. Forty nine Ers
1:42
Speaker 1: won yesterday over Cleveland. They're just right there despite all
1:45
Speaker 1: their injuries. Kyle Shannan asthm at nine and four. So
1:49
Speaker 1: three of these six teams in the National Football League
1:52
Speaker 1: with nine wins or more, all hail and the NFC
1:55
Speaker 1: West for goodness sake. So that's where our headlines begin.
1:59
Speaker 1: Brought to you by Frost Brewed Corps. Like college football,
2:03
Speaker 1: I might raise my hand and say this might be
2:05
Speaker 1: the first time in my life, and I'm a huge
2:07
Speaker 1: college football fan, have been since I was a kid.
2:09
Speaker 1: Same thing with the National Football League. This was the
2:12
Speaker 1: first time, maybe in my life that the NFL Sunday
2:15
Speaker 1: felt so weak compared to college football Saturday. Like I got.
2:21
Speaker 1: I watched college football Saturday, woke up and getting ready
2:25
Speaker 1: to watch the NFL Sunday, and I'm like, man, this
2:27
Speaker 1: does not compare to the energy and the height that
2:30
Speaker 1: I felt like we experienced yesterday. And I give all
2:33
Speaker 1: the credit in the world to actually having an NCAA tournament,
2:37
Speaker 1: actually having a tournament and having more people involved and
2:39
Speaker 1: more things on the line on the last day of
2:42
Speaker 1: the regular season. That's what I give the credit to.
2:44
Speaker 1: So it was a fun college football weekend, even though
2:48
Speaker 1: Washington took it on the chin against Oregon twenty six
2:51
Speaker 1: to fourteen, competitive game, but Oregon ends up pulling away
2:54
Speaker 1: late in that contest. This week is conference championship week
2:59
Speaker 1: and Selection Sunday is coming up in six days to
3:02
Speaker 1: determine the NCAA Tournament field. Lane Kiffin is leading All
3:06
Speaker 1: miss and he is heading to LSU. We will talk
3:10
Speaker 1: about this later on in the hour, because this is
3:13
Speaker 1: some mound of BS right here that we're dealing with.
3:16
Speaker 1: So we'll talk about Lane Kiffin later on in the hour.
3:19
Speaker 1: Crack and haven't won since I last was on the
3:22
Speaker 1: show Friday. I don't know what went wrong, but there'll
3:25
Speaker 1: be in action against Edmonton on Thursday. And we are
3:28
Speaker 1: less than a week away from the Winter Meetings getting started.
3:31
Speaker 1: It's already been a rather interesting offseason so far across
3:34
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. And for the Mariners, just re signing
3:38
Speaker 1: Josh Naylor and extending him has already gave them a
3:41
Speaker 1: better offseason than they had last offseason. And we're not
3:44
Speaker 1: even to the Winter Meetings yet, and so that will
3:46
Speaker 1: get cranked up starting on Sunday night. So those are
3:49
Speaker 1: your headlines, brought to you by Frostbrewed Corps Light Choose Chill.
3:53
Speaker 1: Right now, let's chat with Greg Bell.
3:55
Speaker 2: With the bell tolls.
3:57
Speaker 5: It must be seven o'clock and time for pup Man

4:13
Speaker 1: Now with plump Man News, here's Greg Bell with Chuck
4:17
Speaker 1: and Butt.
4:18
Speaker 2: Come on in, Greg, good morning.
4:20
Speaker 1: Did you have a good Thanksgiving?
4:23
Speaker 2: That was great?
4:23
Speaker 6: Had kids together, the four of us back together?
4:27
Speaker 5: Great?
4:27
Speaker 1: Nice, nice, nice, nice All right, excellent. Well, I don't know.
4:31
Speaker 1: I wasn't here obviously the last week to hear if
4:35
Speaker 1: you predicted another shutout, did you product a shutout again
4:39
Speaker 1: this week? Because it actually would have come true this week?
4:43
Speaker 6: Yeah, I did say I was wrong on the shutout
4:46
Speaker 6: last week. I implied that was I implied that was possible.
4:51
Speaker 6: I had it, had my ready fingertips the last time
4:53
Speaker 6: they had a shut out because I'd just done the
4:55
Speaker 6: research for Tennessee. I said they wouldn't score a touchdown.
4:58
Speaker 6: I think I said that scored two field goal six
5:00
Speaker 6: points or something. But he that was as it should
5:05
Speaker 6: have been. An undrafted rookie quarterback four years at an
5:08
Speaker 6: FCS level playing his first game against the Mike McDonald defense,
5:13
Speaker 6: and it happened just as it should have, and just
5:15
Speaker 6: as I thought it would. Most people thought it would
5:17
Speaker 6: four interceptions. They sacked them three, two or three four times,
5:23
Speaker 6: completely controlled the game. Minnesota had one hundred and sixty
5:26
Speaker 6: two yards. Sam donald could have turned it over ten
5:29
Speaker 6: times and the Seahawks still would have won that game.
5:32
Speaker 6: So by the second quarter, I was writing my game
5:34
Speaker 6: story already for the News Tribune, and what I decided
5:38
Speaker 6: right about was is this team, specifically this offense, with
5:42
Speaker 6: this quarterback good enough to win the NFC West, being
5:45
Speaker 6: good enough to beat the Rams and the forty nine ers,
5:48
Speaker 6: And I don't think yesterday is conclusive at all, to
5:50
Speaker 6: say the least toward that regard and really their season.
5:54
Speaker 6: Sam Donald has a propensity to drop the ball, and
5:57
Speaker 6: the most important thing that he can be at a
6:00
Speaker 6: quarterback is secure of the ball. It's part of the
6:02
Speaker 6: quarterback's job that when he is in the pocket, he
6:05
Speaker 6: will get hit at times, and sometimes more than others,
6:07
Speaker 6: and some schemes more than others, will exploit that. Obviously,
6:11
Speaker 6: Brian Flores is blitzing early in the game, dropping defensive
6:15
Speaker 6: tackles off later in.
6:16
Speaker 2: The game, having he had Anthony Bradford and others not
6:21
Speaker 2: just Bradford just standing around like they were waiting on
6:23
Speaker 2: a light rail train instead of blocking anyone on some
6:26
Speaker 2: pass protection.
6:28
Speaker 6: That's an issue. And then when you can't get the
6:31
Speaker 6: ball out in time, you have to hold onto it,
6:33
Speaker 6: you can't drop it, and he loses the ball a
6:36
Speaker 6: lot in the pocket. I thought the most interesting thing
6:39
Speaker 6: in the post game, beside Ernest Jones and his personal
6:43
Speaker 6: re vitalization, and he was a great story and explaining
6:45
Speaker 6: it to the team and then to me when I
6:47
Speaker 6: asked him after the game. But he found himself last week.
6:51
Speaker 6: But from a football standpoint, the most interesting thing to
6:54
Speaker 6: me was Cooper Cup when I asked him, okay, specifically,
6:57
Speaker 6: what do you need to fix offensively because it's pretty
6:59
Speaker 6: hard on himself in the offense after the game, and
7:02
Speaker 6: he said, Well, when teams come at us like that
7:05
Speaker 6: with pass pressure, if they're batting down passes, we need
7:08
Speaker 6: to get outside the pocket and get the quarterback on
7:11
Speaker 6: the move. If they're getting pressure, then we need to
7:14
Speaker 6: run away from the pressure. We need to throw run
7:16
Speaker 6: routes and Noa's receivers that maybe instead of our fifteen
7:19
Speaker 6: and twenty and ten yard routes, they need to be
7:20
Speaker 6: two yard routes I'm paraphrasing. And that change started to
7:25
Speaker 6: happen later in the game. But they came out trying
7:27
Speaker 6: to do what they did all season with Jackson Smith
7:29
Speaker 6: and Jegu do ten, twelve, fifteen yard routes and Flores's
7:33
Speaker 6: pass rush would not allow it, and it took them
7:35
Speaker 6: almost a full half to figure that out and change
7:38
Speaker 6: and adjust to that. Suffice to say, guys, that offensively,
7:42
Speaker 6: there are warning bells about how sustainable this team defense
7:46
Speaker 6: can win almost every game playing like that yesterday, but
7:49
Speaker 6: they're not going to get an undrafted rookie quarterback starting
7:51
Speaker 6: against them when they play the Rams forty nine ers
7:53
Speaker 6: in playoff teams.
7:55
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I mean, what was it that Flores was doing?
7:57
Speaker 7: Because I do think you get to this time the
8:00
Speaker 7: year and it's that you have to adjust to the
8:02
Speaker 7: adjustments that are made against you. There's enough film that
8:06
Speaker 7: people understand, Okay, this is not just maybe they're going
8:10
Speaker 7: to do this. You know for a fact, they're going
8:11
Speaker 7: to try to go to Jackson Smith and Jigman. You
8:13
Speaker 7: know they're going to do with those ten fifteen yard
8:15
Speaker 7: routes and he's going to put up the big numbers,
8:17
Speaker 7: and so teams start adjusting and you have to readjust
8:22
Speaker 7: so what was it that the defense was doing, because
8:24
Speaker 7: I do feel like this wasn't the only game across
8:26
Speaker 7: the NFL that you saw people come up with game
8:30
Speaker 7: plans that were stopping what had been successful for some teams.
8:34
Speaker 6: Well, Bucky, let's start with the fact that the Falcons
8:37
Speaker 6: this week, the Colts the week after the Rams again,
8:40
Speaker 6: and the forty nine ers and so on are going
8:42
Speaker 6: to look at this tape and what the Vikings and
8:45
Speaker 6: Floryd's did and try to replicate it.
8:46
Speaker 2: They're going to copy.
8:47
Speaker 6: That's the way that we get nothing new.
8:49
Speaker 2: On Smith and Jigby. They had a cornerback covering low.
8:51
Speaker 6: They had a safety over the top. They were shading
8:53
Speaker 6: when they were in single high or even two high coverage,
8:55
Speaker 6: they were shading the safety over to his side. That's
8:58
Speaker 6: something every team has done all year. Yet he's still
9:01
Speaker 6: beating it for on pace to be two thousand yards
9:04
Speaker 6: until yesterday. What the Vikings did is they did that,
9:08
Speaker 6: but then they had a pass rush that made Donald
9:12
Speaker 6: have to get rid of the ball or lose the
9:13
Speaker 6: ball before the Smith and Jimmy ran the twelve to
9:17
Speaker 6: fifteen yard routes. I'm thinking of a third down in
9:19
Speaker 6: the red zone in the first half where he was
9:22
Speaker 6: on the left side and in a bunch formation, three
9:25
Speaker 6: wide receivers to the left, and it was third and
9:28
Speaker 6: goal at the eleven after an ill fated second down run,
9:32
Speaker 6: and Donald waited for Smith Jigby to run a twelve
9:35
Speaker 6: yard in route. He was one yard inside the goal
9:38
Speaker 6: line while he was waiting Van Nell or whatever the
9:42
Speaker 6: hell of the guy's name is on the left edge,
9:44
Speaker 6: did a spin move and beat VN Kinkle did a
9:48
Speaker 6: spin movie did he beat the tight end? And he
9:50
Speaker 6: beat the chipping line running back with a spin move
9:54
Speaker 6: And that was even a blitz. That was a fake blitz.
9:57
Speaker 6: So what Flores did? He started the.
10:00
Speaker 2: Game by blitzing?
10:01
Speaker 6: How was he doing that? Well? He was putting his
10:03
Speaker 6: defensive lineman and dropping him fake pass rushing and then
10:06
Speaker 6: dropping them and then sending linebackers where usually the defensive.
10:10
Speaker 2: Lineman will go.
10:11
Speaker 6: And the Seahawks Anthony Bradford, notably in a couple of plays,
10:14
Speaker 6: were tracking the defensive linemen who weren't pass rushing, and
10:17
Speaker 6: they were standing there watching the guys they thought they
10:20
Speaker 6: were going to block backpedal, and while they were watching them,
10:23
Speaker 6: the linebacker was speeding right by him. They never saw him.
10:26
Speaker 6: That happened in the inside linebackers stack on a third
10:28
Speaker 6: down in the first quarter. So Flora started blitzing, and
10:33
Speaker 6: the Seahawks tried to adjust to that. So then Flora's
10:36
Speaker 6: counter to that counter was I'll fake the blitz, And
10:40
Speaker 6: then the Seahawks couldn't one on one pass rush with
10:44
Speaker 6: spin moves all the while Smith and jigg was running
10:47
Speaker 6: twelve and fifteen yards down the field. Donald didn't have
10:50
Speaker 6: time for that, and so Flores's schemes confused the pass
10:54
Speaker 6: protection enough that made a twelve yard route next to impossible.
10:58
Speaker 6: So what started happening in the second half, you started
11:00
Speaker 6: right away in the third quarter. First of all, they
11:02
Speaker 6: ran the ball more, and they treated Kenneth Walker like
11:04
Speaker 6: a lead running back at the start of each half.
11:07
Speaker 6: But then when they did throw to Smith and jig
11:08
Speaker 6: With the way he got his first catch six minutes
11:11
Speaker 6: left in the third quarter was on like a two
11:14
Speaker 6: yard route, a quick out route, and then his second
11:17
Speaker 6: catch was basically an extended handoff a no step Sam
11:21
Speaker 6: Donald turn and throw the ball to Smith and Jigbad
11:24
Speaker 6: basically a bubble screen. And so those are the opposite
11:27
Speaker 6: of ten to fifteen and twenty yard routes that got
11:30
Speaker 6: him the league's leading receiver in yards. That's the change
11:34
Speaker 6: that they made, but not until the third quarter, And
11:37
Speaker 6: so that's why it took so long for Smith and
11:39
Speaker 6: Jigby to be part of the game, because what he
11:40
Speaker 6: had done all season, the Vikings took it away. Having
11:44
Speaker 6: said all of that, is still got a hold onto
11:45
Speaker 6: the ball. A quarterback number one job is ball security,
11:50
Speaker 6: and if he's gonna get blitzed, if he's gonna get pressure,
11:54
Speaker 6: no matter how the pressure comes, he still has to
11:56
Speaker 6: hold onto the ball, meaning and take the sack. If
11:58
Speaker 6: you take the sack, you don't turn them all over
12:00
Speaker 6: in your own red zone and so on. And that
12:03
Speaker 6: has been a problem all season. It's fifteen turnovers now,
12:06
Speaker 6: ten interceptions and five lost fumbles. That's the second most
12:09
Speaker 6: turnovers in the league behind tung Oviola the Dolphins.
12:12
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know if anybody would have guessed JSN
12:14
Speaker 1: and Justin Jefferson would have combined for four catches and
12:17
Speaker 1: twenty seven yards in the game without either of them
12:20
Speaker 1: being injured. They played four full.
12:23
Speaker 6: Course deep into the third quarter. They had five combined
12:26
Speaker 6: targets and no catches.
12:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah crazy. Greg Bell is with us our Seahawks insider.
12:32
Speaker 1: You can follow mat g bel Seattle and of course
12:34
Speaker 1: get complete coverage of yesterday's twenty six nothing when they're
12:37
Speaker 1: at Thenewstribune dot com. Joins us A here this morning
12:41
Speaker 1: to recap the twenty six nothing victory over the Minnesota Vikings.
12:45
Speaker 1: Let's hand out some flowers though, to that defensive side
12:48
Speaker 1: of the ball. Who do you think Mike McDonald would say,
12:51
Speaker 1: I had the better game Ernest Jones, DeMarcus Lawrence or
12:54
Speaker 1: somebody else.
12:56
Speaker 6: De Marcus Lawrence and Lawrence while the coach with what
13:01
Speaker 6: he called his new favorite all time play. He was
13:03
Speaker 6: pass rushing in the second half. They threw to the
13:07
Speaker 6: running back behind him. He fell to the ground as
13:10
Speaker 6: he was passed. Run and got off the ground and
13:12
Speaker 6: ran toward his own goal line and sprinted from behind
13:14
Speaker 6: and knocked the ball out from Jones caused to funnel
13:17
Speaker 6: the title Cotter Recover and that play. He'll show it
13:20
Speaker 6: five hundred times on film this week with his teammates.
13:25
Speaker 6: It just he said, it was an incredible, unbelievable play
13:28
Speaker 6: for a guy to show that effort. He's a twelve
13:30
Speaker 6: year veteran at thirty two years old. He caused the
13:33
Speaker 6: interception that Ernest Jones ran back the eighty five year touchdown.
13:37
Speaker 6: I mean, Brosmer that I don't care what your tenure is,
13:41
Speaker 6: rookie quarterback or not, you just can't chuck the ball sideways.
13:45
Speaker 6: It's fourth down, yes, so he's thinking, I can't take
13:47
Speaker 6: a sack here, but you can't do that, just hand
13:50
Speaker 6: the ball like a horseshoe toss to the linebacker standing
13:54
Speaker 6: ten yards in front of you. That changed the game.
13:57
Speaker 6: The Vikings after that turnover that Darnald gave him were
14:00
Speaker 6: poised to go in and take a seven to three lead,
14:02
Speaker 6: and it became ten to nothing instead because of Brozeman
14:04
Speaker 6: just handing the ball to Jones thanks to Marcus Lawrence
14:07
Speaker 6: on that play. The Vikings counted on Lawrence either getting
14:11
Speaker 6: sneaky on the boot leg or not looping outside but
14:16
Speaker 6: just holding the edge, and they thought that Brozemer could
14:18
Speaker 6: beat him to the outside instead, McDonald's call was for
14:22
Speaker 6: him the Marcus Lawrence to loop outside opposite the flow
14:26
Speaker 6: to play. That was a flow play action to the
14:29
Speaker 6: left and then I'll roll out to the right. And
14:32
Speaker 6: it appeared to me that McDonald called for Lawrence to
14:35
Speaker 6: do that because the natural thing would have been for
14:37
Speaker 6: Lawrence to flow with the play to his right. He
14:39
Speaker 6: looped to the left, absolutely opposite of the playfake like
14:42
Speaker 6: it never happened, and was just in the face of
14:45
Speaker 6: Rozeman before he even had a chance to do anything.
14:48
Speaker 6: So credit McDonald for that and Kevin O'Connell after the
14:51
Speaker 6: game said well, calling it a catastrophically bad play, said that, yeah,
14:56
Speaker 6: the defensive end looping outside is what ruined that play.
14:59
Speaker 6: Marcus Lawrence has been a revelation for them eleven years
15:02
Speaker 6: in Dallas. He has made them whole on the defensive line.
15:07
Speaker 6: Teams in pass rush pass protection can't just say well,
15:09
Speaker 6: let's just focus on Leonard Williams, an all Pro type
15:11
Speaker 6: defensive linemen. They if they devote two guys to block,
15:15
Speaker 6: including chippers to block Lawrence or excuse me to buck Williams,
15:20
Speaker 6: then Lawrence is alone basically one on one.
15:22
Speaker 2: So they that has.
15:23
Speaker 6: Evened out the pass protection plan against Seattle, and the
15:26
Speaker 6: defensive line is feasting because of Lawrence.
15:29
Speaker 7: Ernest Jones was down on the field for just a minute,
15:32
Speaker 7: got up and got off the field under his own power.
15:34
Speaker 7: So I don't think it's anything crazy, but he's pretty
15:36
Speaker 7: important to this defense health wise.
15:38
Speaker 1: Is he good?
15:39
Speaker 2: You think he.
15:40
Speaker 6: Said he's fine. The striking thing to me about that
15:43
Speaker 6: eighty five yard interception returns how fast and fluid he
15:46
Speaker 6: looked running right because he had a bulky right knee
15:48
Speaker 6: brace at rams game and he missed two of the
15:50
Speaker 6: previous three games, missed a little bit of practice time
15:53
Speaker 6: this past week, then came back to full go at
15:54
Speaker 6: the end. He said he felt fast and good on
15:57
Speaker 6: that run. He was sitting up injured there and briefly
16:00
Speaker 6: went off, but as soon as he went off, he
16:03
Speaker 6: didn't go into the ten. Even the ten was up,
16:05
Speaker 6: and he asked for his helmet back and he would
16:06
Speaker 6: have gone back and had the Vikings gotten a first
16:09
Speaker 6: down that drive, he missed two plays, including the fourth down,
16:11
Speaker 6: and that's why he didn't come back in. And then
16:13
Speaker 6: when it was the next time for defense come on
16:15
Speaker 6: the field, it was garbage time with the minute left
16:18
Speaker 6: and twenty six nothing, so the reserves were on and
16:20
Speaker 6: Jones wasn't there. So he said he's fine. He said
16:23
Speaker 6: that he found himself basically this past week. Wasn't living
16:27
Speaker 6: the way he wanted to. Wasn't dealing well with his
16:29
Speaker 6: father's death. His best friend, his father Guy he spoke
16:33
Speaker 6: to every Tuesday in the offseasons their in season passed
16:37
Speaker 6: away in July of ewing sarcoma. He said he wasn't
16:40
Speaker 6: handling that right. It wasn't living the way he wants
16:42
Speaker 6: to live. With the cross, he wears around his neck,
16:44
Speaker 6: and he got down on his knees and prayed this
16:46
Speaker 6: past week and said that he's changing his life. And
16:50
Speaker 6: he told his team that after the game in a
16:52
Speaker 6: very vulnerable moment. McDonald called it one of the best
16:55
Speaker 6: locker room speeches he'd ever seen. So it was a
16:57
Speaker 6: much bigger week for Ernest Jones.
16:59
Speaker 1: In the game yesterday, Uh well I think that might
17:03
Speaker 1: be where we needed. How we're gonna uh follow up
17:05
Speaker 1: on that. So all right, excellent stuff here today. Appreciate it,
17:09
Speaker 1: mister Bell, Thank you very much, and uh, we'll do
17:12
Speaker 1: it again next week. Well, actually, we'll talk to you
17:15
Speaker 1: again tomorrow. What am I talking about? Well, rusty girl,
17:18
Speaker 1: I've had a.
17:18
Speaker 2: Few days though.
17:19
Speaker 6: I thought I was getting the week off.
17:20
Speaker 1: Okay, oh you got the week off.
17:22
Speaker 2: This is new to me.
17:24
Speaker 6: I thought when you set out, we'll do it again
17:26
Speaker 6: next week.
17:28
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no, we're gonna do it. As
17:30
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, we might even call you later
17:32
Speaker 1: on today like this afternoon.
17:34
Speaker 2: Yeah.
17:34
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, awesome stuff man.
17:38
Speaker 6: Thank you.
17:38
Speaker 1: All right, Greg Bell, our Seahawks insider. If you want
17:41
Speaker 1: to read up on that Ernest Jones story or any
17:43
Speaker 1: of his recap stories. You can do so at the
17:45
Speaker 1: News Tribune dot com, and you can certainly follow Greg
17:49
Speaker 1: at you Bell Seattle. His segment with us is brought
17:51
Speaker 1: to you by Sparkly Deliciousness. I had some by the
17:55
Speaker 1: way to good Yeah, and I really did enjoy the
18:00
Speaker 1: prosecco experience on Thanksgiving. And I don't think anyone else
18:06
Speaker 1: in the house contributed to drinking the bottle.
18:09
Speaker 4: Really, that's how it should be.
18:10
Speaker 7: Well, yeah, that's nice. You know, you have to dirty
18:13
Speaker 7: a glass, then you just go straight to the head.
18:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I mean there were a lot of
18:18
Speaker 1: other people there one. Yeah, but anyway, oh yeah, it
18:26
Speaker 1: was offered there, and it just I just kept said
18:28
Speaker 1: a little bit more for me, I guess. Uh. So,
18:30
Speaker 1: from holiday cheers to game day touchdowns, there's one play
18:33
Speaker 1: that always wins. Copola Diamond Collection Prosecco crisp sparkling with
18:38
Speaker 1: bright fruit flavors that make every toast shine game day
18:42
Speaker 1: bubbles only with Coppola Diamond Prosecco, which we now can
18:46
Speaker 1: all officially endorse. It's pretty good. Yeah, it has now
18:51
Speaker 1: pasted all of our lips, all right. Coming up next
18:54
Speaker 1: on the radio program, we will play some factor fiction
18:57
Speaker 1: this is it. This is the final week, so all
19:00
Speaker 1: of these picks are crucial. So I haven't made a
19:03
Speaker 1: pick in over a week. It will be my turn today.
19:05
Speaker 1: I'll make that at seven thirty five. Also, we'll hear
19:09
Speaker 1: from Mike McDonald after yesterday's shut out victory at Sports
19:13
Speaker 1: Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. Be Monday to you all, Chuck,
19:17
Speaker 1: Buck and Ashley together here on this Monday, Happy Thanksgiving up.
19:21
Speaker 1: You had a great one as we roll into a
19:25
Speaker 1: brand new week. Did you put the tree up then?
19:26
Speaker 1: Immediately after the Turkey dinner Friday day? Like immediately that
19:32
Speaker 1: was like the thing to do as soon as midnight hit?
19:35
Speaker 5: No?
19:35
Speaker 7: Oh no, we had a we had other stuff to do.
19:39
Speaker 7: We're actually going and getting the Christmas tree today. Oh wow,
19:43
Speaker 7: we've already started celebrating Christmas. Lights are up and whatnot,
19:47
Speaker 7: just haven't got the tree. And we haven't got the
19:49
Speaker 7: tree yet.
19:50
Speaker 4: My house looks like Christmas exploded?
19:52
Speaker 1: Is that right? When did you do yours on Friday?
19:55
Speaker 6: Right? Yeah?
19:55
Speaker 3: And then well Friday, and then I did the lights
19:57
Speaker 3: yesterday morning. Outside, So the outside I was yesterday because
20:01
Speaker 3: it's nice and dry still, but Friday, because Friday took
20:04
Speaker 3: almost all day to do inside because you got to,
20:07
Speaker 3: you know, take out the fall stuff and organize and
20:09
Speaker 3: storage bins and all that stuff. And then Saturday we
20:12
Speaker 3: were at the Husky game all day, so then Sunday
20:14
Speaker 3: was outside.
20:15
Speaker 1: Got a nice property there, I would imagine you can
20:17
Speaker 1: make it quite beautiful. Do you go overboard? Do you,
20:20
Speaker 1: Clark Griswolds?
20:21
Speaker 3: We do not, ye though, like I just do, like
20:24
Speaker 3: I make it look like there's a little river of
20:26
Speaker 3: water of Christmas lights going down. We're like, we have
20:28
Speaker 3: some rocks and then we've got some lights in the
20:30
Speaker 3: courtyard on the bushes and that's it.
20:32
Speaker 7: You have a courtyard.
20:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, Bucky, he'll be Bucky, and I'll be there Christmas morning.
20:36
Speaker 1: I can't wait. Pajamas see you, Ben.
20:40
Speaker 4: Eh, very exciting, But then you got to be prepared.
20:43
Speaker 3: Then we go over for Christmas to Mum's house, so
20:46
Speaker 3: we'll have to have Martini's, Yeah, martini z eggnog, you
20:50
Speaker 3: know all that fun stuff.
20:52
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was watching a little bit of uh because
20:55
Speaker 1: I do watch this every once a while. Food Network,
20:57
Speaker 1: And have you ever heard of Jeffrey Z. Carrion. He's
21:00
Speaker 1: ate one of the Iron chefs. Oh, yeah, And he
21:03
Speaker 1: was asked point blank, what do you think of when
21:05
Speaker 1: you think about Christmas dining? He goes, Martiniz, never even
21:10
Speaker 1: realized that was a thing.
21:11
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is now it is official.
21:13
Speaker 1: All right, factor fiction coming up at seven thirty five.
21:16
Speaker 1: But Mike McDonald, you have heard his comments just there
21:19
Speaker 1: coming out of the break. Obviously, you gotta feel good
21:22
Speaker 1: when you're a head coach to win a football game, period,
21:25
Speaker 1: much less to win one by twenty six points in
21:28
Speaker 1: the National Football League. But when you're a defensive minded
21:31
Speaker 1: head coach and you shut out an opponent, I don't
21:33
Speaker 1: care if they're starting their eleventh string quarterback. I don't
21:36
Speaker 1: care if they're starting, you know, a backup safety because
21:39
Speaker 1: they don't have another choice at quarterback.
21:42
Speaker 2: Man.
21:43
Speaker 1: Do NFL defensive head coaches love posting zerosts?
21:49
Speaker 7: Yeah, I can understand why. I mean, it's got to
21:53
Speaker 7: feel good when you end up winning a game as
21:56
Speaker 7: lopsided as that was, and yet you didn't really play
22:00
Speaker 7: well at all on one side of the ball. And
22:02
Speaker 7: so I mean, that's what a defensive minded coach I
22:05
Speaker 7: would imagine their blueprint.
22:06
Speaker 1: What they would love is to have.
22:07
Speaker 7: A potent offense and a dominant defense, you know, just
22:10
Speaker 7: do that every single week. And yet that's really not
22:13
Speaker 7: the nature of the beast. You're not going to have
22:15
Speaker 7: all pro players all over the place. He's got the
22:17
Speaker 7: defense ripping right now and playing playing well that they're
22:22
Speaker 7: all kind of coming together and understanding the concepts that
22:25
Speaker 7: we've heard are complicated and difficult to figure out. And
22:29
Speaker 7: yet now you've had guys that have been here for
22:32
Speaker 7: you know, nearing twenty games and or over twenty games,
22:35
Speaker 7: and they've got to figure out how to how he
22:38
Speaker 7: wants them to do it, and the complex nature in
22:41
Speaker 7: which it's supposed to be done, and everybody's supposed to
22:43
Speaker 7: be where they're supposed to be. It's it's rolling right now.
22:48
Speaker 7: I mean, there's no doubt that they're kind of clicking
22:49
Speaker 7: on all soonders on that side of the ball, and
22:51
Speaker 7: so it makes up for lacking other things, whether it
22:54
Speaker 7: be kind of coughing the ball up more than you
22:56
Speaker 7: would like or turning the ball over more than you'd like.
22:58
Speaker 7: But if you're not even doing to bend, let alone
23:01
Speaker 7: a bend but don't break situation, you're going to be
23:03
Speaker 7: in every single game to play well.
23:05
Speaker 1: Only on in twenty eight passing yards. Yesterday, Sam Donald
23:09
Speaker 1: barely completed over fifty percent of his passes. That was
23:13
Speaker 1: the worst pass protection sam Donold has had as a
23:16
Speaker 1: Sea Hawks. So even though the defense shined, were there
23:19
Speaker 1: any concerns on the offensive side of the ball from
23:22
Speaker 1: the head coaches.
23:23
Speaker 8: Perspective, No, it's the same thing every week. It's look
23:26
Speaker 8: that there's there's things that that Minnesota did that was
23:30
Speaker 8: really good, and there's some things that we capitalize on
23:33
Speaker 8: which is good for us, and we got to we
23:35
Speaker 8: got to understand those things so we can make sure
23:38
Speaker 8: they're not issues moving forward. But that's the same thing
23:40
Speaker 8: every week.
23:41
Speaker 1: It's every phase.
23:42
Speaker 8: You know, everybody at this time of year, you know,
23:45
Speaker 8: it's hard to come up with the new ideas. So
23:47
Speaker 8: there's a lot of you know, teams being inspired by
23:50
Speaker 8: things that happened from prior weeks.
23:52
Speaker 4: It happens in all three phases.
23:53
Speaker 6: Happens every week.
23:54
Speaker 8: So same process.
23:55
Speaker 1: It's so true. I mean, it's whack a mole, like,
23:58
Speaker 1: all right, we got I know that the moles not
24:00
Speaker 1: coming out of this hole. Got this one covered. Oh
24:03
Speaker 1: it's came over there. And that's the life in the
24:06
Speaker 1: National Football League. The hot and cold nature, especially this season,
24:11
Speaker 1: of all the teams in the National Football League. Yes,
24:14
Speaker 1: it has been insane. I think the Seahawks have been
24:16
Speaker 1: one of the most consistently operated teams this year, along
24:20
Speaker 1: with the Los Angeles Rams. But yeah, the offense didn't
24:23
Speaker 1: play a great game yesterday, didn't matter. The defense was
24:26
Speaker 1: that special. We'll talk more about it with Hugh starting
24:29
Speaker 1: at eight o'clock. Right now, Let's play some factor fiction.
24:32
Speaker 1: Where's that to go? Glad you're with us?
24:34
Speaker 5: It's your shot at our weekly thousand bucks and the.
24:37
Speaker 1: Ten thousand dollars grand prize.
24:40
Speaker 5: It's fact door Fiction, probably presented by Lucky Eagle Casino
24:44
Speaker 5: and hotel where every day feels Lucky. Fact Door Fiction
24:48
Speaker 5: is on Sports Radio ninety three point three KJR FM.
24:55
Speaker 1: So I didn't get the I wasn't here last week,
24:57
Speaker 1: so I didn't get the results from the previous way,
25:01
Speaker 1: and then you guys took care of things while I
25:03
Speaker 1: was away. I didn't realize how much we were up. Yeah,
25:10
Speaker 1: and I'd only say that factually. I don't say that
25:13
Speaker 1: to say, like, let's celebrate because we got we got
25:16
Speaker 1: stuff to do, we got to finish this thing out. Yeah,
25:18
Speaker 1: we very easily go zero to five in the last
25:20
Speaker 1: week of Factor Fiction, and a couple of these turns
25:23
Speaker 1: on these other shows here at kJ R could get hot.
25:26
Speaker 1: That's true, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, well, yeah
25:29
Speaker 1: they're not good, but yeah, yeah we could. They could
25:32
Speaker 1: that they could. So we got to be on our game.
25:34
Speaker 1: We gotta be on an a game. We got to
25:35
Speaker 1: finish this thing off because we got a chance to
25:37
Speaker 1: go back to back. And yes, we know that's not
25:40
Speaker 1: the most important thing. The most important thing is you,
25:42
Speaker 1: the listener, So we try to emphasize that every single day.
25:45
Speaker 1: But we got a little bit of team rooting interest
25:47
Speaker 1: in this as well. Yeah, and an here we are.
25:50
Speaker 3: If we're doing well, then we're you know, maybe making
25:53
Speaker 3: it easier for you to trust our picks and just
25:54
Speaker 3: pick fact maybe and then you'll win because we're winning.
25:58
Speaker 1: So here we go week of Fact or Fiction. So
26:02
Speaker 1: those that are in the running, obviously you can't miss
26:06
Speaker 1: a pick, yep. And those of you that aren't in
26:09
Speaker 1: the running, this is your last chance to win that
26:12
Speaker 1: thousand dollars weekly cash prize drawing, so we all have
26:16
Speaker 1: something at stake.
26:17
Speaker 4: You just got to get one right, and you could
26:19
Speaker 4: win a thousand bucks.
26:20
Speaker 1: Come on, everybody, hands in right now. Let's go two
26:22
Speaker 1: three team one two three team. Yeah, let's go team
26:27
Speaker 1: here we go. All right, it's my pick, haven't made
26:32
Speaker 1: one in a little while. And I am not going
26:34
Speaker 1: to take the Monday night game. There's too much at stake.
26:36
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with what I like the most here
26:40
Speaker 1: on the start of this week. And to me, I'm
26:43
Speaker 1: going college football. Look, I get it. The Alabama Crimson
26:49
Speaker 1: tie of beating the Georgia Bulldogs three straight times, and
26:53
Speaker 1: I get it. Kirbie Smart still has not defeated Kaylin
26:57
Speaker 1: de Boor head to head since he showed up in Alaibi.
27:01
Speaker 1: You can look at that as a trend, or you
27:04
Speaker 1: could look at it as, oh my gosh, there is
27:08
Speaker 1: no way Kirby Smart's gonna let his Georgia Bulldogs lose
27:12
Speaker 1: in Atlanta to Alabama again by three points. There's just
27:18
Speaker 1: no way. And so I'm taking the Georgia Bulldogs to
27:22
Speaker 1: win over Alabama in the SEC Championship game in Atlanta.
27:26
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go and lay the two and a
27:28
Speaker 1: half points because I think they're gonna win by ten.
27:31
Speaker 1: All right, I'm taking Georgia minus two and a half.
27:35
Speaker 1: It's a neutral field, yep, but it's in Atlanta, which
27:40
Speaker 1: is in.
27:41
Speaker 9: Georgia neutral quote unquote, So give me the Georgia Bulldogs
27:46
Speaker 9: minus the two and a half against Alabama to win
27:49
Speaker 9: the SEC title this year.
27:52
Speaker 1: I think Kirby Smart's more determined in his entire life
27:55
Speaker 1: to win a football game. It's this one on Saturday.
27:59
Speaker 3: Right.
27:59
Speaker 1: If you're text Factor four nine four five one. If
28:02
Speaker 1: you disagree, text Fiction to four nine four five to one.
28:06
Speaker 1: If you're right, we enter your name into the final
28:09
Speaker 1: thousand dollars cash prize drawing of the entire Factor Fiction
28:12
Speaker 1: year at the end of this week, and make sure
28:15
Speaker 1: you're playing every single time we play, because you can
28:17
Speaker 1: weigh that thing in your advantage because you're running out
28:19
Speaker 1: of time to win one thousand dollars of free money,
28:22
Speaker 1: and if you are in the running for the ten
28:23
Speaker 1: thousand dollars jackpot, good luck this week. You're gonna need
28:27
Speaker 1: a little luck on your side as well to finish
28:30
Speaker 1: this thing off. There are a lot of people vying
28:32
Speaker 1: for this championship for those ten thousand big ones, So
28:37
Speaker 1: good luck to you all. And it's gonna start with
28:39
Speaker 1: me taking Georgia over Alabama minus two and a half
28:43
Speaker 1: in the SEC Championship Game. All brought to you by
28:47
Speaker 1: our friends at Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel. They've you
28:52
Speaker 1: on twenty four at Lucky Eagle Casino in Hotel. That's
28:55
Speaker 1: every Friday and Saturday twenty four hour gaming at Lucky
29:00
Speaker 1: goal dot com. Next chance for you to play is
29:02
Speaker 1: with Mark and Chris at eleven thirty five this morning
29:06
Speaker 1: right here on KJAR. Coming up next, we'll have a
29:08
Speaker 1: little bit of time. We'll talk more about it tomorrow,
29:11
Speaker 1: but a little bit of time we have to talk
29:12
Speaker 1: about this Lane Kiffin situation right here on Chuck and
29:15
Speaker 1: Bucks Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. Here me
29:22
Speaker 1: little join us at eight o'clock. Mike Ho I'm ran
29:24
Speaker 1: at nine o'clock, So two hours of Sea Hawk talk
29:27
Speaker 1: after a twenty six nothing shutout went over the Minnesota
29:29
Speaker 1: Vikings yesterday to improve the team to nine and three.
29:32
Speaker 1: If I know Hugh Millan, and I think we all
29:34
Speaker 1: know Hugh Millan, he probably wants to talk a little
29:37
Speaker 1: college football. But we'll see, we'll see, we'll see how
29:39
Speaker 1: the two hours go. This will be our only opportunity
29:42
Speaker 1: to talk about Lane Kiffin today. It's such a big topic.
29:46
Speaker 1: There are so many layers to it. We will certainly
29:48
Speaker 1: spend more time on it tomorrow. I'm sure that you
29:51
Speaker 1: two have your thoughts, and I'm trying to figure out, like, Okay,
29:54
Speaker 1: we've got just this one segment. What do I want
29:57
Speaker 1: to isolate? And I think what's most important to relay
30:01
Speaker 1: this morning is what it appears to me has happened.
30:06
Speaker 1: And that was that Lane Kiffin's known for a long
30:08
Speaker 1: time he was going to LSU. The moment that they
30:11
Speaker 1: showed how interested they were, he just, you know, he
30:17
Speaker 1: was gone. The bags were packed, but he still wanted
30:20
Speaker 1: to coach his team out and see if they can
30:22
Speaker 1: make the SEC Championship game, and so on and so forth.
30:26
Speaker 1: And then as the clock came down, he kept acting
30:28
Speaker 1: acting like how difficult a decision it was. And I'm
30:31
Speaker 1: going to meet with these people on this day, and
30:34
Speaker 1: meet with those people on that day, and I consult
30:37
Speaker 1: with my mentors and everything else throughout the course of
30:40
Speaker 1: the week and what I've gathered or what it feels like.
30:45
Speaker 1: And I'm reading between the tea leaves here. I don't
30:47
Speaker 1: know for a fact is. It sounds like it was,
30:50
Speaker 1: I'm leaving for LSU, will you let me coach my
30:53
Speaker 1: team the rest of the way? Will you let me
30:55
Speaker 1: coach when I'm the head coach of your most hated
31:02
Speaker 1: rival basically, or one of them? Will you let me
31:05
Speaker 1: coach the rest of the season. That's what the negotiation
31:08
Speaker 1: was Saturday, the cloak and Dagger negotiation. And then apparently
31:13
Speaker 1: he played hardball and said, if you don't let me
31:15
Speaker 1: do it, I'm taking all of my coaches with me,
31:19
Speaker 1: and so the players who've acted like I've cared about
31:21
Speaker 1: this entire time, I'm going to strip them of any
31:25
Speaker 1: chance of winning in the tournament because I'm going to
31:27
Speaker 1: try to take all of my coaches as a leverage
31:30
Speaker 1: play for you to let me coach in the tournament
31:34
Speaker 1: before I go to LSU while I'm recruiting for LSU.
31:40
Speaker 1: This was what he was trying to negotiate at the end,
31:43
Speaker 1: and then he didn't get his way. Apparently he went
31:46
Speaker 1: to his coaches and said, if you don't come with
31:48
Speaker 1: me right now, you're not going to be on my staff.
31:52
Speaker 1: And a couple of them went, and most of them stayed,
31:55
Speaker 1: and so that's how the lane Kevin Era ends in
31:57
Speaker 1: Ole Miss and I understand a hundred third percent why
32:00
Speaker 1: Rebels fans hate his guts right now.
32:04
Speaker 7: Yeah, I just don't understand how it works the way
32:07
Speaker 7: that it works. I mean, I'm not going to fall
32:09
Speaker 7: team Bay for taking a job that they think is better, right,
32:12
Speaker 7: And LSU if he thinks, you know right now you're
32:15
Speaker 7: going to go to a team and try to build
32:17
Speaker 7: them up to a college playoff team, and you're leaving
32:21
Speaker 7: a team that's going to be in the college football playoffs,
32:24
Speaker 7: I don't fully understand. My whole thing is if you're
32:27
Speaker 7: so sought after, if LSU wants you so bad, and.
32:30
Speaker 1: I don't know why they do, Frank, how do you.
32:32
Speaker 7: Not how do you not tell them I can't leave
32:36
Speaker 7: this team before I've seen it to the end. And
32:41
Speaker 7: if you can't handle that, then I can't take the job.
32:45
Speaker 7: How can you not have that integrity? I would think
32:48
Speaker 7: as an employer, as the future employer.
32:50
Speaker 1: LSU, you would like that.
32:52
Speaker 7: Yeah, you would be like, you know what, I'm glad
32:54
Speaker 7: you're standing on that. That's good. That shows me something
32:58
Speaker 7: versus the pettiness of there must have been somewhere I
33:03
Speaker 7: would have to think that he wanted to see this
33:05
Speaker 7: thing through, and yet he wanted his.
33:08
Speaker 1: Cake and he wanted to eat it too. Yeah, I
33:09
Speaker 1: want the job, but you should give me the chance
33:12
Speaker 1: to see if I can win a national championship with
33:14
Speaker 1: the team that I'm abandoning.
33:16
Speaker 7: Yeah, and yet yeah, I mean I guess to some
33:18
Speaker 7: degree it's like, well, we don't want you to win
33:20
Speaker 7: a NAST championship, so now it's I don't have I mean,
33:22
Speaker 7: obviously there's one duck that I have a rooting interest for,
33:26
Speaker 7: and other than that it's old Miss. I will be
33:29
Speaker 7: cheering hard for old Miss to win it, and then
33:32
Speaker 7: him to go tell's you and never win it, just
33:35
Speaker 7: because the integrity that you, the lack thereof, is just
33:39
Speaker 7: I just can't.
33:40
Speaker 1: It's just gross to me.
33:41
Speaker 7: I mean, yet you should be able to stand on
33:44
Speaker 7: it and say, I am the most sought after coach
33:46
Speaker 7: right now in this coaching cycle apparently, and so if
33:50
Speaker 7: you want me, you have to let me do what's
33:52
Speaker 7: right by this. The kids, the guys that I'm coaching.
33:56
Speaker 7: I can't lead them to this place and then bolt
34:00
Speaker 7: on him and yank all the coaches out underneath him.
34:03
Speaker 7: It's it's pitiful. To be honest, it's it's gross and
34:07
Speaker 7: you're you are. I think he got really mad when
34:10
Speaker 7: somebody called him a hoe. Well m sorry, bud. Yeah,
34:13
Speaker 7: knack like one, walk like one, talk like one.
34:17
Speaker 1: You might be one.
34:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a petulant brat.
34:20
Speaker 3: And he tried to show everybody that he'd changed and
34:22
Speaker 3: that he was different, and maybe for a brief amount
34:25
Speaker 3: of time he had changed and he was different. And
34:27
Speaker 3: then when he wasn't going to get his way and
34:29
Speaker 3: do exactly how he wanted to do it, dictate exactly
34:34
Speaker 3: how he was going to abandon one program and go
34:37
Speaker 3: to another program, then he threw a fit and basically
34:41
Speaker 3: took all his toys and went home and was like, okay,
34:44
Speaker 3: well then if that's the case, then I'm going to
34:46
Speaker 3: screw you guys over And I don't care yep, exactly.
34:52
Speaker 3: It's not about the players at all. Also, I don't
34:54
Speaker 3: think it is a better job.
34:56
Speaker 9: He just got offered a lot more money his historically is.
35:00
Speaker 1: But I'll say this to your point, I mean, it
35:03
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be going forward. It's all about nil
35:07
Speaker 1: and whichever whichever alums want to fork out the most money.
35:13
Speaker 1: And you might have a situation where there's gonna be
35:16
Speaker 1: more of it at Ole Miss than LSU. Probably not,
35:19
Speaker 1: but that's what Nick Saban said on Saturday. He's gonna
35:21
Speaker 1: go to the place that he feels where he can
35:23
Speaker 1: get the best players, and that probably is LSU. But
35:26
Speaker 1: there is a way that you can handle it. And
35:29
Speaker 1: of course Lane kiffen mishandled it entirely, and then for
35:33
Speaker 1: those that are we'll let him coach it out. What's
35:36
Speaker 1: it gonna hurt? Are you kidding me? I mean, can
35:39
Speaker 1: you imagine like going to your spouse and saying, Hey,
35:43
Speaker 1: I'm leaving you, and I'm gonna leave you for the
35:47
Speaker 1: person you hate the most. And in the meantime, because
35:52
Speaker 1: I can't do it right away, I'm gonna need you
35:54
Speaker 1: to be a buddy and just act like everything's fine
35:57
Speaker 1: and is dinner just about ready?
35:59
Speaker 6: Yeah?
36:00
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I'm just gonna stay here for a while.
36:02
Speaker 3: Yeah that's okay. Yeah, And I'm gonna live in the house.
36:05
Speaker 1: I'm gonna live in the house and and just know
36:08
Speaker 1: that soon I will be making sweet love to the
36:11
Speaker 1: person that you hate. Yeah. But uh, and for the
36:14
Speaker 1: rest of my life probably. But in the meantime, could
36:18
Speaker 1: you be a buddy in cleanup.
36:20
Speaker 4: And also I have some laundry that's got to get done.
36:23
Speaker 1: No way do you let him go. He's recruiting for
36:26
Speaker 1: LSU right now, and you're gonna let him coach? Oh mess,
36:31
Speaker 1: of course you can't.
36:32
Speaker 4: And then all those players keep loving him and then
36:34
Speaker 4: they all leave.
36:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we'll have more time talk about tomorrow. And
36:40
Speaker 1: I don't ever want to hear anybody bag at player
36:42
Speaker 1: again when when coaches act this way, I mean, Christian
36:46
Speaker 1: McCaffrey didn't want to play in a meaningless Bowl game
36:50
Speaker 1: to protect himself for the NFL draft, ever, giving himself
36:53
Speaker 1: to Stanford for four years and like carrying the ball
36:57
Speaker 1: thirty times a game. And here's Lane Kiffin on the
37:01
Speaker 1: verge of the postseason tournament, not thinking that's important enough
37:06
Speaker 1: to stay for just out of just selfish, selfish interest
37:11
Speaker 1: financially to get to a better place. All right, we'll
37:15
Speaker 1: talk more about it tomorrow. Hugh Millin's next Sports Radio
