  Speaker 5: what looks to be a damp weekend.
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: Don't like that.

  Speaker 2: I think more than damp, we're supposed to get like
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: an over an inch of rain.
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: I know, you know what this is where this is
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: where Ashley and I probably are the closest in our
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: love for fall, yeah, and our love for dry fall weather.
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: To enjoy the leaves.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I really do like the leaves in it.
• 1:17
  Speaker 6: And it was a little windy the other day and
• 1:19
  Speaker 6: I thought, oh, what's gonna happen?
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: But they seemed to kind of hold on and they
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: were just blowing. And now I don't.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: Know what's gonna happen. They we're gonna have some soggy
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: leafage at our feets. And I don't like that. All
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: that beauty that.
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: It really is sort of just a sad, sad representation.
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: You take all that beauty and then you just wet
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: it and damp it and just rip it from its
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: root and there it is underneath your feet.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you just step on it.
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: Two days ago, this was gorgeous and I was staring
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: at it, enjoying a cool fall breeze and having a
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: cup of coffee and a pumpkin scone.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: And now now look what our life has been.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Now look now, look at all the rain in our forecast.
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: I can't wait to sit and watch softball in it.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Is that your weekend?
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: Oh geez? Yeah, oh boy.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: The tournament all weekend long.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Did Nickerson, by the way, sell out his venue for Saturday?
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: I don't know if he did or not. I know
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I think he sold out there.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: Not friends with us, He made it very clear he's
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: only friends with Ashley. Well, we were texting the other day, yeah, exactly,
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: of course.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: And I told him that I couldn't make the show
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: about that. I'm sorry.
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: I could give you his phone number, you could text him,
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: and then he'd probably really be more excited to be
• 2:26
  Speaker 6: your friend.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Than my friend. But I don't know.
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: I should ask him, because you know his show. He's
• 2:31
  Speaker 6: got two shows tomorrow at the Neptune. They're going to
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: be awesome, and that's perfect to do on a rainy weekend,
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: go to a comedy show.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. That's true. Yeah, Well, I don't know
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: if I'm going to make it.
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I'm going to make it. Maybe
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: that's why I'm not his friend and you are.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Well, I can't make it. I have to watch softball
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: all weekend long.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: But you've got things you have to do.
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: You can come watch softball and then you can tell
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: him I have to go watch softball all weekend long.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah that sounds Yeah.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: We welcome into the show.
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: It has sort of been a week of healing in
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: a lot of ways as we kind of come to grips.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: We've gone through the different stages of getting over getting
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: knocked out of the playoffs, and with a World series
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: starting tonight, we got another stage to get to. That's
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: kind of the acceptance stage that Okay, we're gonna.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Watch the World Series or not.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'd really like to watch show hey o
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: Tani play in the World Series, But that's about it.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Really don't want to watch anything else about it.
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: I don't want to hear Dave Roberts talk about how
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: he's excited that the Dodgers are ruining baseball. I don't
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: want to see the Toronto Blue Jay's happy. I mean, so,
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: I don't know. It's a torn feeling. I wish you
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: people wouldn't have ever made me emotional about baseball. I
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: was doing just fine till I moved here.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: I know, thanks a lot.
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: I do feel bad because I remember too when I started,
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: you were like, I'm not an emotional sports fan, and
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: I've watched the progression over the last couple of years
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: as you get just as emotional, not just I wouldn't
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: say just, but you do let emotions play a part, yes,
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: in your Mariner's watching. And I'd like to just pretend
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: that the World Series isn't happening.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I guess you got that option. I am
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: curious how I react because it's Friday. I'm really looking
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: forward to, like a lay back weekend. Because I haven't
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: had one in a while. Yeah, and I've got Martini Night.
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: I think that we're going full scale on that perfect
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: and I always put on usually while we're playing music,
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: I'll put on a sporting event on mute and just
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: have it in the background, so, you know, in between
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: dance sessions, and yes, I do dance during Martini Night,
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: why wouldn't you. In between dance sessions, I'll pause and
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: you know, just to I feel like I'm accomplishing a
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: lot at once, and I'm not a great multitasker to
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: begin with. So it's really a great feeling, you know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: because I'm you know, enjoying a Martini, dancing, listening to music,
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: and watching.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: A sporting event all at the same time.
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: And socializing really with the Unicorn, even though that's way
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: down the list. So so yes, So I don't know
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: what I'm gonna put on.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: I really don't.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I will be moved by the
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: moment because I am such a steam head and just
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: I got to give in and watch show a take.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: On the Blue Jays.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I'll do that or if I'll
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: flip it to Big ten college football.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Maybe I'll watch that.
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe I'll watch a little NBA since it's back
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: into our lives. I don't know, I don't know. I
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: don't know how I'm going to approach it. I don't
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: think I'm going to know until like six pm tonight. Yeah,
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: I'm sure it will be five is when the World Series.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sure it will be on at our house.
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: But luckily for me, I get softball practice in the
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: fifth grade Halloween dance tonight. Oh so, I but if
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: it makes you feel better, I did already have a.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Dream about it.
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: You already have made me feel better, because no matter
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: what I do tonight, it's better than that.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: It's better than that.
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and I did have I did already have a
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: dream about Game one of the World Series. I had
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: this not last night, the night before. Uh, Toronto wins
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: Game one, so oh really in my dream?
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I was.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: Your third grade teacher there playing second base.
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: No, it was really odd because it was actually just
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: all about the game. And then I was watching the
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: game and it was really close, and I was getting
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: really annoyed because I didn't want Toronto to win, and
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: then they ended up winning at the end.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: So just a run of the mill.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: You're watching the World Series dream like you weren't barefoot
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: or anything.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Nothing strange, and my dreams are weird.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: You aren't making out with cal Raleigh again.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: No, not this time in the stands. In the dream
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: where I was his second girlfriend, we never made out.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's right, that's right. I added that. Yeah, maybe
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: I wanted that for you in your dream.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: Probably did ye, I appreciate that, But no a tricycle
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: and the outfield or anything.
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: Just sitting on the couch next to me and I
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: was just getting all of them that Toronto was going
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: to win, and then they won.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: Maybe that is a true nightmare, then I think it
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: might have been. Yeah, maybe the nightmares. Maybe our worst
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: nightmares are the ones that are so realistic and then
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: they are go so against the grain.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: I can't even believe I'm even rooting for the Dodgers,
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: because I do think their Dodgers are ruining baseball.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I do too.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: I don't want them to win. I don't want Toronto
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: to win.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I got to root for the Dodgers in this Canada.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: Well, yeah, we got a lot to figure out emotionally
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: about how we're going to proceed with all.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: We're in a tough spot.
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, we're in a dark place. Yeah, well so
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: is the NBA as well. I mean, our show plan
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: got a little disrupted at the beginning, and I'm sure
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: everybody's show nationally got disrupted. Doesn't matter if you're a
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: local sports show, national sports show, international sports show. The
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: NBA scandal breaking right before we came on the air
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: yesterday certainly impacts every sporting fan out there. But you know,
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: I didn't really get a lot of the conversation where
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: I thought that it was gonna go yesterday. It maybe
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: we're just so used to scandal now. And I'm not
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: just talking about in the sports world, just in life
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: in general. You know, maybe we're so used to it now.
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: I mean that it didn't rock us the way that
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: I thought it would. It kind of felt to me
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: like everybody was treating this as an isolated incident and
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: more of a hurdle, you know, maybe a larger hurdle
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: than normal, but more of just like, well, the NBA's
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: got to do the right thing, you know here, and
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: was it should? Did the NBA screw up by letting
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: Rogier play that seemed to be the conversations. I mean
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: when it first happened to me, because I've been around
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: this industry for a long time. In the past, it
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: always went to is this going to rock the fans
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: trust in what they're watching? I mean, they just went
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: ahead and played NBA games last night, and people went
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: ahead and made their bets. The whole world just continued.
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: I mean, scandal or not. And this was a monster scandal.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: This is not small.
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: This is one of the biggest ones of my entire career,
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: my entire lifetime.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and yet I think maybe that is it.
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: That people are just so used to scandal that it
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: just it just rolls right off our backs these days.
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and maybe, but I I.
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: I was trying to wrap my head around it yesterday.
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: I was explaining some of it to my mom about
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: it's not even just a sports scandal, like this is
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: just a big like this was a massive investigation and
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: bust arresting like thirty eight people over eleven states.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's a big damn deal.
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: And then you add in the fact that it was
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: involving sports and rigging, you know, prop bets and things
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: like that.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: I don't know that doesn't roll off my back.
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: That that's it's crazy to me that the NBA did
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: clear Terry Rosier and they're like.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Well, okay, yeah, he's fine, and then the FBI is like.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: Hold on, I mean, we're you going to talk about
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: for a long time. But it's almost like we just
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: all right. So Chauncey Billups is done and Terry Rogier's done. Yea,
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: Damon Jones are They're all done. They're never will never
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: see them again. I'm not saying they won't ever breathe
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: free air again, but they're done. Their basketball careers are
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: over with. But because the thirty eight other people were
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: not sports figures that got arrested yesterday, and because the
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: NFL Thursday night football, everybody kind of went through their routine.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: I did not watch.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: I did not go to the bar last night, so
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: maybe that did affect me a little bit. Usually I
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: go on Thursday. I think that has more to do
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: with me just trying to catch up. And you know,
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: basketball was on, and then I mean they didn't. They
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: spent time on it on inside the NBA, and good
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: for them. I wasn't sure on day number two how
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: Charles and company were going to be allowed to handle it,
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: but ESPN did not interfere with their candid nature, which
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: was a relief. It doesn't look like they're going to
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: try to edit or see what those four guys say
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: going forward, So that was good.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: I mean, the only thing.
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: They really got heated about was Kenny trying to play
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: the addiction card and Charles did not want to hear it.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: That was the only thing they even got heated about.
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: For the most part, everybody on the set kind of
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: was in agreement that the three people responsible, you know,
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: their surprise because they knew them personally, but shame on them,
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: and you know, you betrayed us and you betrayed the league.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: That seemed to be the sentiment on the set, with
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: Kenny trying to defend them a.
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: Little bit, right, And yeah, and I actually did say
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: the same thing when I was explaining to my mom, like, well,
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: because she's I don't understand why people do this, I said, well,
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: addiction or gambling is an addiction.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: And I kind of just came out and then.
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: I thought to myself, but they weren't really the ones gambling, right.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's to me, So I am not an addictive personality,
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: and so It's always been hard for me to sort
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: of I can sympathize, I can't empathize with what an
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: addictive person ghoster.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: I've been around plenty of them.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: I always so I'm always like, Okay, I get the
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: drug and alcohol, the chemical. You're introducing new chemicals into
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: a body. How are they going to react to your chemicals?
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: Heredity has something.
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: To do with it.
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: Your genes have something to do with it, whether or
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: not it's in you to be an addictive personality because
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: of those that came before you. I get all of that,
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: like the it's kind of rearranges your thought processes, and so, okay,
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: I get that one. So it was a harder leap
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: for me to go to the sympathy for the gambling addict.
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: But I do understand it. Your brain releases chemicals of
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: what you're doing, and so over time I've been able to.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: Say, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you're craving that high and winning, right, you're craving it.
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: You got to be a part of it, you know,
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: And Okay, So now I've developed over time like sympathy
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: for that and recognition of how debilitating that that is.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: And how it can destroy and wreck people.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: Okay, okay, I'm with you on that, but this isn't
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: Terry Rosier and Chauncey Billups couldn't wait to make a
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: bet to get their fix. These are two people. I mean,
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: was he also he's addicted to gambling? Is he also
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: addicted to acting like he's a bad basketball player? I mean,
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: is Chauncey Billups also addicted to rigging poker games and
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: keeping an association with known criminals? Is that an addiction?
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: And yeah, at one point, I'm sure that if he
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: was involved early in his life that he felt scared
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: and man, I you know, maybe he was in their debt.
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: This guy made two hundred million dollars in his career.
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: How could he have not paid that debt off by now?
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: How is he still associating with them at this point?
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: Terry Rogier makes twenty six million dollars a year, So
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: I mean, maybe if you're going to tell me there
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: addicted to the high of criminal.
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: Behavior, maybe.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: I mean, we watch movies all the time, like The
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: Sting's one of my favorite movies of all time, and
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: we love the characters. We love Paul Newman, we love Robertt,
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: Robert Redford in that and they win the day, and
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: they they outsmart the other criminals and everything else. But
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: they're criminals, and yet they've been painted by Hollywood as
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: people that we should like. And so, I mean, you
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: can like Chauncey Billups like apparently everybody in his life does.
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: Nobody has a bad word to say about Chauncey Billups.
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: But that doesn't mean he's not acting criminally. That doesn't
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: mean he's not stealing and bilking innocent people.
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: In his thirst to.
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: Satisfy whatever adrenaline that creates for him.
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: He is.
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: So I mean he's addicted to acting criminally, then are
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: we supposed to have sympathy for that too.
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: Otherwise, let's let all.
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: The serial killers out. They're just addicted to killing people.
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: It's no big deal.
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: Pickpockets are just addicted to no big deal. Let them
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: all out. So look, I mean, I will go ahead
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: and accept the fact that there are people out there, and.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: I know you weren't waiting on me, but.
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: That there are people out there that need that I
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: need that adrenaline rush. Had to place that bet you know,
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: fell behind a little bit or got ahead a little
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: bit and have.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: To just keep feeding it.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: But it shouldn't then also affect you betraying your friends,
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: your boss, your business, your sport that has made you
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: a millionaire over and over and over and over again.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: I mean that to me can't be put in an
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: addictive category. There are elements of Rogier and Chauncey that
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: are no doubt addictive, but that should end at I
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: can't keep myself from placing bets. It should not be
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: I'm addicted to ruining other people's lives.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: I am addicted to.
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: Betraying my friends, my co workers, my industry. That to
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: me is not addiction. That's just you're an a hole. Yeah,
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: and you might be able to be nice to other people,
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: but you are at the root of you a criminal,
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: and I don't want to see you around anymore.
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, at the root of you, you are not a
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: good person because you brought you knowingly scammed people. I mean,
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: you're no better than the people that are you know,
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: sending text messages or calling elderly people and trying to
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: get them to give them their life savings.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: Right, like, you are no.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Better than that, right, I agree?
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: And so but that was it was funny because when
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: I said that to my momm yesterday, and then all
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: of a sudden, I was like, wait a minute, this
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: situation like in Chauncey Billips case too. You know, he's
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: part of these poker games. He's also telling people information
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: about his players and that they're tanking games.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: And then you know when that's.
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: Not public and it's not made public till thirty minutes
• 16:52
  Speaker 6: before the game, that somebody's out and these people are
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: making thousands of dollars off that information.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: I mean that is fully illegal.
• 17:01
  Speaker 6: Yes, and you are you are abusing your place to profit.
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you have not seen the movie, and I think
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: this should be illegal as well. I think you should
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: be arrested for not seeing Guardians of the Galaxy.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I should.
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: But at the end of the movie there's an exchange
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: between because they're all the Ravagers the they're actually kind
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: of criminals who've decided to fight evil okay together, and
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: so they get to the end of you know, hopefully
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: spoiler alert, and at the end of the Raccoon Rocket, Yeah,
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: he's telling John c Riley, who plays a cop, like
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: but what if I want it more than the person
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: who owns it? And he's like, no, that's stealing and
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: that's pretty much illegal, because no, no, you don't understand
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: what if I want to what if I have to
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: kill him in order to have it, Like, that's murder,
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: and that's one of the worst crimes out there. So no,
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: you can't do that. But we shouldn't have to. Yeah,
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: we shouldn't if somebody doesn't know those simple rules.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Well, and that's the thing, they know those rules. They
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: just didn't care.
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: They just didn't care. Yeah, and they and their stories
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: that Rogier was counting the money with the criminals and
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: at his house and smiling and laughing and everything else.
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: And so I don't know, it kind of feels to me,
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: and I know this is the way the NBA wants
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: it to be. Like, this is not a big scandal.
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: This is an isolated case with a few individuals connected
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: to the NBA who got in with the wrong people,
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: and now they're gonna pay the price.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: We'll see. I kind of thought.
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: Yesterday that it would affect the rest of professional sports
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: in some way, But I think we're so used to
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: scandal now in our lives that maybe we just blow
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: it off. Maybe we just went right back to, oh, well,
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: watch football tonight. I'm gonna just trust it justin Herbert's
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: not gonna throw the game away.
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know that.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Like ESPN on their are other on get Up or whatever.
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: They were talking about it and then quickly deleted the
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: ESPN bet.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, the bottom, but I wonder if it's back today.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: They were very careful with all their gambling sponsors, and
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: we've got tons of them too, so but but yes,
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: they were very careful with that, and maybe you don't
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: have to be.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: I mean, why are you trying to hide that? Yeah,
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: I mean you're you've.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Started out in the open legally.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: Right right, right?
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: All right, let's find out what's on tap for the
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: rest of our show today.
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: What's on tip?
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: What's on tap?
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: Okay?
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: So, the Oklahoma City Thunder back to back double overtime
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: games and wins to start the season. I guess that's
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: never happened before that a team has started the season
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: with two double overtime victories. I think I overheard that.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: If that's not accurate, I'm sorry I didn't look it
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: up in research.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: I believe it though, Yeah, I would too.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: Thursday Night Football, the Chargers just mop the field with
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: the Minnesota Ikings thirty seven to ten.
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: The final score.
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: Vikings aren't good, Chargers are and the Chargers had to
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: get back to playing good football. So they did it
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: last night. That's a win for Factor fiction.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 20:04

• 20:28
  Speaker 5: worst schedules I've ever seen as an NFL fan. I mean,
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: the best thing you're looking at. Chicago at Baltimore might
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: be the best early game, and that's a one in

• 21:04
  Speaker 5: game road trips are not easy, and usually that last
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: game is the hardest one. But after back to back losses,
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: the Cracking got it together. Joey Decord was perfect, Jayden

• 24:51
  Speaker 5: the start in Game one of the World Series. Not
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: just a rookie, he didn't even qualify for Rookie of
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: the Year. This is somebody that had three starts during
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: the regular season for the Blue Jays and his.
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: Start and they've had plenty of rest.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: Gosman could go and they're starting you Savage tonight.
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, is what a seventh starter, eighth start of the season.
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he had.
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: Three during the regular season, so he's had more postseason
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: starts in his career than he's had regular season starts
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: in his career. And he's getting the game one call tonight.

  Speaker 5: the Los Angeles Chargers defeated the Minnesota Vikings thirty seven
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: to ten last night as Justin Herbert dominated the Vikings
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: bad games. On Sunday, it's a good day to kind
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: of skip the National Football League if you're gonna skip it.
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: Husky's Excudney Seahawks are on buy this week, which Schmidt.
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: We were going to give Greg Bell the day off
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: rather than talk about the topics we've discussed with them
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: all week long, but instead, Charles Davis had a mix
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: up on his flight, so we called Greg and said
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: Greg want to hop on and he said, yes, how
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: about it.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I'm happy to be your fallback the prom
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: date that's just sitting around waiting for the call.
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: And I honestly I put you on the rundown yesterday.
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: I always send a show text.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: I had you on it. I thought you were doing it,
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: and then I thought that you.
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: Couldn't do it because maybe you were going out of
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: town because you Bells like to travel.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, my wife's john us here this time.
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: Okay, all right, Well for good to have you with us. Thanks, Yeah, happy, happy.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: To be your fallback whenever you stood.
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: Up our Seahawks insider Greg Bell with us right here
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: on Chuck and Buck in the morning. So you know
• 26:54
  Speaker 5: where I want to start with us where we kind
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: of ended yesterday. And that's the idea that in the
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: future there won't be just one bye week in the
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: National Football League that we're all braced or most people
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: should be braced anyway, for a future that includes eighteen
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: regular season games and two bye weeks. So the NFL season,
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: I think you and I both agree on this is
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: going to get longer here very soon, right.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, And it would take an exception to the collective
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: bargaining or going back to the bargaining table for the
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: players and owners to agree on changing the schedule again.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: One of the premises of the last CBA, it was
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: signed in twenty twenty, it runs through into twenty twenty three,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: was the seventeen game season, and we've talked about how
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: the veterans didn't even want that. But the rank and file,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: the majority, sixty plus percent of the NFL Players Association
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: are minimum salary guys, and the owners raised the minimum
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: salary substantial from four hundred sum to seven forty. I
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: think it is right now for this year, and so
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: the sixty plus percent sign me up for that. I'm
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: going to get a three hundred thousand dollars rais right
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: off the top coming into the league. And that's why
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: the CBA got approved, not because it had a seventeen
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: game season, and the veterans those have been around and
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: didn't care about the minimum salary as much. They didn't
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: want this. Not to mention Roger Goodell's sweeping authority and
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: discipline on pretty much anything in the league, pension, drug testing,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: there are a bunch of issues that the veteran players
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: that are the minority of the union didn't want and
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: that CBA barely passed, but it passed because of the
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: minimum salary thing. That's a long way of saying that
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: the players are not going to easily give up the
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: eighteenth game. They're going to ask for a higher percentage
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: of the league's revenues. It's still under fifty percent. I'm
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: acpecting that the players will last for more. Closer to
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: fifty percent of the league's revenue is going to the
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: players and exchange for the eighteenth game. I think what
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: we're headed to, Chuck, is what the NFL wants. One,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: they want sixteen international games the year. They want every
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: single of the thirty two teams to play one international
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: game that season. The players hate that idea. And the
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: second thing is they're going to move the Super Bowl
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: to the holiday week, the President's Day holiday weekend in
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: mid February. To your point about extending the season longer,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: adding an eighteenth game will help them get that February
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: fifteen ish Super Bowl Sunday, so that it will truly
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: be a national holiday where everybody doesn't have to work
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: the next day on the Monday. I think that's where
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: it's all headed, but that might not all happen. Till
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: the twenty thirty CBA.
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: Let me ask you about another big picture thing, and
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: the NBA's scandal right now is forced us to think
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: about gambling in sports. Do you think the NFL would
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: use this moment to sort of reassess their relationships with
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: their gambling partners, not that they would not have gambling
• 30:01
  Speaker 5: partners and a relationship with them. I mean, it's a
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: big part of sports. It's a big industry, and so
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: I know that it's not going to go away. But
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: these daily prop bets, I mean there are bets greg
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: that you can make out there on how many drops
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: a wide receiver will have during the course of a game.
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: I mean, how on earth is the NFL, the NBA,
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: Major League Baseball supposed to monitor every individual bet and
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: whether or not a drop by a receiver in Week
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: sixteen and a game between Tampa and Atlanta might actually
• 30:38
  Speaker 5: have been motivated by gambling. Is this an opportunity for
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: the National Football League behind the scenes to kind of
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: assess how they want to have their daily prop bet
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: company relationships and maybe try to scale that down a
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: little bit going forward.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's an opportunity. But another question, the second and
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: a different question is will they do it. If the
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: answers no, they won't because the money it is coming
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: in the interest how half its TV ratings now are
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: because of fantasy football and betting. There are casual fans
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: who don't even know who the starting quarterback from some
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: teams are who are watching games because of those two
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: factors fantasy football and betting, and advertisers know it, and
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: they pay a premium for especially primetime games because of that.
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: And that's not going away. You're right, but we lived
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: a long time without that. But the effort of owners
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: in the league to maximize and squeeze profits out of
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: every single corner they can, they went to this, and
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: once it became more legal across the country, it became
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: a lot easier for the NFL to accept this. They
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: should do it, but they won't. What's even worse, Chuck,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: is if you go those same prop bets exist in
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: college football, and how corrupt and wrong is that that
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: a high school and this is less so than it
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: was even five years ago because of nil, But how
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: easily swayed could a college kid who used to just
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: eat pizzas and barely get by because he wasn't allowed
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: to have income outside of scholarship. This is dating myself
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: about five years. But those guys are more and much
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: more influenced and potentially swayed to drop a pass or
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: any other prop that you have on a college freshman
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: at Central Florida or something. It's pervasive. It's so pervasive
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: in our society that it's not pervasive in our sports.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: And this won't be the last this, Terry Roseier, this
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: won't be the last. And I told you yesterday the
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: NFL is so good at so many things of influence
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: and exerting influence and covering their tracks. It wouldn't surprise
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: the supposition. It wouldn't surprise me if this has happened
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: in the league already. We don't know about it yet
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: and the FBI hasn't gotten to it yet, but it
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me if that's on their next frontier. And
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: it's threatens the integrity of what we watch, of what
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: we are so big, the huge fans of of what
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: we cover. I don't walk into a locker room wondering
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: if somebody dropped a pass on purpose the game. But
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: the specter is now out there, and that is what
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: has been created by these leagues or lack of a
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: bud buddy Gary Washburn of the Bus and Club Group
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: yesterday for being in bed with betting companies, because that's
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: exactly what's going on.
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: Ours inside of Greg bell as whether as you can
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: follow them at g bel Seattle, of course, and Thenewstribune
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: dot com for complete Seahawks coverage. It is by week
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: for the Seahawks that it allows us here on a
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: Friday talk about some big picture items. And one topic
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: that just kept coming up this week came up on
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: the roundtable.
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: I get it. I know you get it as well.
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: When Hugh says, man for the greater interest of the offense,
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: you got to get more people involved than Jackson Smith
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: and Jigma. The difference between targets to him and everybody
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: else is just out of whack. And yet, how do
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: you restrict something that is working so effectively. I want
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: to get Jackson Smith and Jigba the ball as many
• 34:17
  Speaker 5: times as possible. So how do the Seahawks not curtail
• 34:21
  Speaker 5: what JSN is doing to defensive secondaries in the league
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: while getting Tory Horton some development and Cooper Cups some
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: satisfaction and getting tight Ends more involved in the offense
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: without jeopardizing how often you're trying to establish the run game.
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: So tell me how Clint Kubiak's going to manage all
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: of this, Greg Well.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: Ultimately, what it comes down to is Kubiak can design
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: whatever and call whatever plays he wants. And he could
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: say the Cup is the primary on this one, or
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Horton is or Barner is, but it's up to the
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: guy who throws the ball. And if he's reading or
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: trusting that Stiff and Jigglin is my guy on this play,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: that I have a better chance of converting this fourth
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: and one by throwing an eighteen yard out to Smith
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: and Jigba than a two yard out to Barner, then
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: he's gonna throw it there right exactly. And the more
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: times the results are positive, which so far they've been
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: NFL best positive, that reinforces Darnold's decision in the snap
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: when he's being chased by three hundred pound guys. He's
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: getting paid to make the right decision at the right
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: time to throw the ball to the right place. It
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter what the play call is. If he thinks
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: that Smith and jig was his best option, he's going there.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: And there have been times in the last couple of weeks.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: He's even been going backside to Smith and Jigga where
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: they's rolled that one way in the front side play
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: and the Reds are all in front of him, he'll
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: go find Smith and Jigmab back across the field in
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: the backside. And because he's leading the league by so
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: many yards you pointed out out yesterday's like two hundred
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: yards above any Jamar Chas or anybody else. That shows
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: you that when push comes to shove, star Old's gonna
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: throw it to number eleven and nobody's covering Alm, So
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: why not. No one's been able to cover him so
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: far consistently this season, So you're right, that will be
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: games that teams will just say, forget it. We're putting
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: two on Smith and Jigba, and we're gonna leave guys
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Scott free wide open, and then then the reads will
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: be to Cup and to Barner. It's not like cupping Barner,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: especially Barnar. It's not like he's been ignored. He had
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: four touchdown catches in the first five games of the season.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: But the Caponoran said, yes, it's unusual in the NFL.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: This is more like a college football deal where the
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: star receiver is getting all the receptions and targets that
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: is unusual. Does it catch up to him? So far
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Smith and Jigbab is beating all coverage, he's beating shadow coverage,
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: he's beating Cloud, he's beaten Man, he's beaten zone. I'm
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: with you. If it's still working, they'll just say, well,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna throw him because I've been thrown to
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: him too much.
• 36:59
  Speaker 5: And it could be a problem if other people are
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: complaining about it. But no one's complaining about it, are they.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: None of the other Seahawk receivers. Nobody's bothered miffed that
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: JSN is getting targeted so much.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: No, not that I know I even. No one's expressed that.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: And it helps that they won five of seven games.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: If they were two and five, you might hear something
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: from Cup or few other guys about what we do it,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: but no, they're smart enough and veteran. If they're five
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: and two.
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: All right, since we're having kind of a big picture session.
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: Tyler Lockett got released this week.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: He did.
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: I would imagine somebody's gonna pick him up, and I
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: would imagine he's going to make a couple of more
• 37:37
  Speaker 5: big catches in his career, probably with a playoff caliber
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: team here down the stretch.
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: But man, I for a self aware as Tyler Lockett
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: always has been.
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: I wish that he would have just said, I'm not
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: gonna go play for the Titans. If that's my best offer,
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: what a great career. I'm just going to retire a
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: Seahawk every snap with the Seahawks. I kind of wish
• 37:59
  Speaker 5: that he would have had that moment with himself.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: You know, I thought I was really surprised when he
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: signed with Tennessee. When I was talking to him at
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: the end of last season on and off the record,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: on stuff in print and not, I was pretty convinced
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: that he's like, you know what, this has been great,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: and I thought it was important to him that he
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: was going to play for his entire career for Jesse
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Seattle and how rare that is for ten years one
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: team in them out. It's surprising me when he signed,
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: and he deserves You're right, he deserves a team that's
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: going to go to the playoffs and give him a role.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he'll get that, but that's what
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: he deserves. It's not coming back to Seattle. I can
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: almost assure you that, yeah, not because they don't want to,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: just that doesn't there's no roster fit at the moment.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: He would take an injury to one of their frontline
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: guys for him and even interested, But don't we for him.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: He's a man who is well set and has his
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: priorities in order and to take care of his wife
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: and his new family and a second career in real
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: estate and philanthropy back in Tulsa and here in the
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Pacific Northwest. Still he still has a lot of roots here.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: He probably will be one of the guys that comes
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: back and maybe, if not lives here, comes back a lot.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: But yeah, his priorities are in the right place and
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: he's not going to play years in a couple more
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: years and years just to keep playing. It did surprise
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: me to answer question he was even playing one more
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: year for Tennessee.
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: He should follow Dad's footsteps. I bet you the Chiefs
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: could use a guy like that. Yeah, just retire in
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: Dad's uniform.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: The teams are pretty good about getting a veteranary. Other teams, Yeah, yeah, I.
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: Bet you Mahomes could find some use for him.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say that wouldn't be a bad
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: way to end your career with Patrick Mahomes in a
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: playoff push.
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: All right, Greg, well, thank you very much.
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: You know exceptionally this time, so we appreciate you being
• 39:49

  Speaker 5: cover anything, and we'll talk to you again next week.

  Speaker 1: Yeah. I enjoy the weekend. I know how it would
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: be to just chucking for a twenty minute segment, so that.

• 40:22
  Speaker 5: twenty minute segment.
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I kind of have a gift for that.
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: But I was hoping to have somebody on today and
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: we're gonna have Charles Davis.
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: But it's nice to have Greg there. I love that conversation.
• 40:37
  Speaker 5: We got to talk about some big picture items which
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: normally we don't get to discuss. So thank you, thank you,

• 43:01
  Speaker 5: my name is Chuck Powellin here we go.
• 43:04
  Speaker 4: We'll get started with the Mariners, whose.
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: Twenty twenty five season came to an end at the
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: beginning of the week, losing in crushing fashion to the
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: Toronto Blue Jays in the American League Championship Series Game
• 43:18
  Speaker 5: number seven, and so reluctantly we give ourselves to the offseason,
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: which has officially begun for the Mariners, and it really
• 43:28
  Speaker 5: doesn't until we hear from the three wise men, Dan Wilson,
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: Justin Hollander, Jerry Depoto all met with the media yesterday
• 43:37
  Speaker 5: in very informal fashion. It wasn't behind microphone, it wasn't
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: behind a desk. It was just standing around with the
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: media and openly answering whatever questions the media had for them.
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: Jerry Depoto, of course, has had to consider all of
• 43:55
  Speaker 5: the criticism of Dan Wilson and his decisions in Game
• 43:59
  Speaker 5: number seven back on Monday all week long, and he
• 44:02
  Speaker 5: just wanted to clear the air on how much he
• 44:05
  Speaker 5: supports his manager.
• 44:07
  Speaker 9: His calm, He is methodical, and everything he does he
• 44:12
  Speaker 9: trusts in the people around him, from the coaches to
• 44:15
  Speaker 9: the players. Especially the players leans in and wants it
• 44:19
  Speaker 9: to be a player driven environment with player leadership that
• 44:23
  Speaker 9: comes from the clubhouse out and you know, his leadership
• 44:26
  Speaker 9: style is to cultivate that leadership within the clubhouse and
• 44:30
  Speaker 9: has been from the time he was working as a
• 44:32
  Speaker 9: special assistant in player development.
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: You know, he is.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: He is.
• 44:40
  Speaker 9: More thoughtful about the player as a person than just
• 44:44
  Speaker 9: about anybody I've been around.
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: In Dan Wilson not going anywhere, I think we knew that. Yeah,
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: and yeah, that pretty much emphasizes how much Jerry Depoto
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: supports him. And we've talked about this over the years.
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: There's so much more to being a manager. There's a
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: reason they call it a manager, not a head coach.
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: At the major league Baseball level, I mean, you're dealing with,
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: you know, somebody, You're dealing with twenty six guys on
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: a daily basis that were the best player on their
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: team for almost their entire lives. Okay, And then you're
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: dealing with guys who are making millions of dollars a
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: lot more than you are, and some of them are
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: making a lot more than their teammates. And some of
• 45:27
  Speaker 5: them aren't even as good as some guys that make
• 45:33
  Speaker 5: make more money or less money, or whatever the case
• 45:35
  Speaker 5: may be.
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: You see what I'm saying. And so it is a constant.
• 45:39
  Speaker 5: And then you're dealing people that have personal lives that
• 45:43
  Speaker 5: sometimes interfere, and then you have relationships, you know, guys
• 45:47
  Speaker 5: that get into battles within the clubhouse that don't like
• 45:51
  Speaker 5: each other. So that really is the main job of
• 45:55
  Speaker 5: the manager, managing all of the personalities. Managing the day
• 45:59
  Speaker 5: to day game operations, and x'es and o's are important,
• 46:04
  Speaker 5: it's an important part of it. But if you're good
• 46:07
  Speaker 5: at all that other stuff, then there are ways to
• 46:10
  Speaker 5: handle the x's and o's better, which I'll talk to
• 46:13
  Speaker 5: talk about here in a moment. But that's Jerry Depoto saying,
• 46:16
  Speaker 5: not only is Dan Wilson good at all of that
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: other stuff managing all of that stuff, He's the best
• 46:20
  Speaker 5: I've ever seen at managing all of that stuff. And
• 46:23
  Speaker 5: so that's why Dan Wilson, despite our criticisms, which I
• 46:27
  Speaker 5: think personally are legitimate, of his in game operations, that's
• 46:31
  Speaker 5: why he's not going anywhere because the things that really
• 46:34
  Speaker 5: are the biggest part of his job he's been very
• 46:37
  Speaker 5: good at, and obviously Jerry Depoto thinks he's awesome at.
• 46:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it was nice hearing Jerry's thoughts on what Dan's
• 46:46
  Speaker 6: strengths are from, you know, just from their perspective and
• 46:50
  Speaker 6: hearing him be emotional about his manager and about his
• 46:53
  Speaker 6: team and everything. I mean, I thought of Jerry's press
• 46:56
  Speaker 6: conference the best part or not press conference, but you
• 46:59
  Speaker 6: know whatever. The best part for me was when Jessman
• 47:03
  Speaker 6: asked him one word to describe how you feel right
• 47:08
  Speaker 6: now or how you feel about this season, and he said,
• 47:11
  Speaker 6: you know, I'm gonna give you a different answer now
• 47:13
  Speaker 6: than I probably will a month from now, but disappointed. Yeah,
• 47:17
  Speaker 6: And then he got emotional and teared up and then
• 47:21
  Speaker 6: just finished with yeah, just disappointed. And I almost got
• 47:25
  Speaker 6: Tierry just watching him, because you know, again, we all
• 47:28
  Speaker 6: think so many people think these guys are just up
• 47:30
  Speaker 6: there doing things.
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: They don't really care about these things.
• 47:32
  Speaker 6: And Jerry has gotten a lot of flack for not caring, yes,
• 47:36
  Speaker 6: but clearly he does.
• 47:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Jess Mean will do that to you.
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: She's like the Roy Firestone of modern day broadcast.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: That's what I've always called her.
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she wants you to cry. All He's doing that
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: in the office too.
• 47:48
  Speaker 5: As for Jerry's thoughts on the actual that seventh inning
• 47:52
  Speaker 5: decision that will be debated for generations, it's hard to
• 47:55
  Speaker 5: make those decisions in real time, I'll never begrudge him
• 47:59
  Speaker 5: Dan for making a move he believed in end quote,
• 48:03
  Speaker 5: so not holding it against him, but not exactly supporting
• 48:06
  Speaker 5: the decision.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: He's not exactly saying, oh, it's the right move.
• 48:10
  Speaker 5: Zarta has been great in that situation, but obviously that's
• 48:14
  Speaker 5: not going to interfere. Dan Wilson's been given sort of
• 48:17
  Speaker 5: control over those in game operations, which was a big
• 48:21
  Speaker 5: question mark back in the Scott Service days. People thought
• 48:23
  Speaker 5: the decisions were being made overhead. I can tell you personally,
• 48:27
  Speaker 5: whenever I've asked Justin Orchierry about that specific topic, they always,
• 48:32
  Speaker 5: whether it's on Mike or off Mike, say oh, that's
• 48:36
  Speaker 5: Dan Deacy.
• 48:37
  Speaker 4: We don't have anything to do with it.
• 48:38
  Speaker 5: And so I don't know why they would consistently lie
• 48:41
  Speaker 5: about that if it wasn't true. All that said something
• 48:44
  Speaker 5: that I talked about yesterday in our nine o'clock hour.
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: I think Dan Wilson needs some help.
• 48:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and I do think he struggled with in game decisions,
• 48:52
  Speaker 5: and it wasn't just a standalone Eddie Bizardo decision.
• 48:56
  Speaker 4: I think he.
• 48:56
  Speaker 5: Struggled with in game decisions all season long and his
• 49:00
  Speaker 5: first full year on the job, and I certainly trust
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: that he will get better and the game will slow
• 49:05
  Speaker 5: down for him the more that he manages. But I
• 49:08
  Speaker 5: think they need an upgrade at bench coach. I think
• 49:11
  Speaker 5: there are a lot of great candidates out there, guys
• 49:14
  Speaker 5: that while he's, you know, spinning all the plates and
• 49:17
  Speaker 5: doing all the juggling, there's somebody that is just thinking
• 49:20
  Speaker 5: about strategy, that is just there as a sounding board,
• 49:24
  Speaker 5: or maybe just somebody saying, hey, Dan, you know Springer
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: and Guerrero could come up here in the next inning.
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe we want Muon Yos up. Yeah, maybe we
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: want him up now yea. And maybe that happened. Maybe
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: many actor did that in the dugout.
• 49:38
  Speaker 5: I don't know, but but I just I think that
• 49:42
  Speaker 5: he could use some Yoda type sage sitting there.
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: I don't think it could hurt that's.
• 49:49
  Speaker 5: Not looking to climb the corporate ladder, that's not looking
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: to take his job, that respects him, loves him, and
• 49:56
  Speaker 5: wants him.
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: To do well.
• 49:57
  Speaker 5: And I think that that might be something the mayor
• 50:00
  Speaker 5: understood tap into this offseason. But all right, well, we've
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: got a lot of time talk Mariners offseason coming up
• 50:08
  Speaker 5: throughout the entire winter and at one point I will
• 50:12
  Speaker 5: get really excited about doing that, but maybe that's not now.
• 50:16
  Speaker 5: In the meantime, Item number two on the O Show
• 50:18
  Speaker 5: World Series Game one tonight.
• 50:21
  Speaker 4: If you're excited about that, I do care.
• 50:26
  Speaker 5: First bitch five PM from Toronto tonight. Interesting decision for
• 50:32
  Speaker 5: John Schneider, the Worst, John.
• 50:35
  Speaker 4: The bad John Schneider, Treya Savage.
• 50:37
  Speaker 5: Yes, Treya Savage is getting the start for the Blue
• 50:41
  Speaker 5: Jayson Game one. I mean they've had several days off,
• 50:43
  Speaker 5: they could start Kevin Gosman, and instead John Schneider is
• 50:48
  Speaker 5: going with rookie Treya Savage. We talked about this earlier.
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: In the show.
• 50:52
  Speaker 5: He has more postseason starts in his career than regular
• 50:56
  Speaker 5: season starts in his career. Can you believe that somebody
• 50:58
  Speaker 5: that three career regular season starts and is starting Game
• 51:04
  Speaker 5: one of the World Series when Schneider could have picked
• 51:07
  Speaker 5: anyone in his entire organization.
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy to me. This is I think I
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: figured it out.
• 51:12
  Speaker 6: This would be his seventh start total, and that is insane.
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: So three in the postseason, three in the regular season,
• 51:18
  Speaker 5: fourth and this would be okay, yeow, that's crazy.
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 51:22
  Speaker 5: Blake Snell will get the start for the Dodgers, who
• 51:24
  Speaker 5: have just been mowing people down in the playoffs. Last year,
• 51:27
  Speaker 5: the Dodgers had a great starting rotation, but everybody was
• 51:30
  Speaker 5: hurt by the time they got to the playoffs. This year,
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: everybody was hurt during the regular season, with the exception
• 51:36
  Speaker 5: of Yamamoto, and now they're all healthy in time for
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: the playoffs. So it's the best rotation money can buy.
• 51:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, they didn't develop one of those guys. Blake
• 51:46
  Speaker 5: Snell and Tyler glasnow are both from the Rays. Yamamoto
• 51:51
  Speaker 5: and Otani were brought over one from Japan and then
• 51:55
  Speaker 5: Otani free agent from the Angels. So to have those
• 52:00
  Speaker 5: guys and the way they're pitching right now. I'm not
• 52:03
  Speaker 5: saying this because I don't want Toronto to win, even
• 52:07
  Speaker 5: though I don't want Toronto to win, but I think
• 52:10
  Speaker 5: that it doesn't get out of LA. I think the
• 52:12
  Speaker 5: Dodgers win in four or five. And before any Toronto
• 52:16
  Speaker 5: fan thinks I'm being biased, I would have said the
• 52:19
  Speaker 5: same thing about us. Yeah, I think that they're just
• 52:22
  Speaker 5: playing that well. They're just pitching that well, and they
• 52:25
  Speaker 5: are and they're healthy.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: They seem unstoppable.
• 52:29
  Speaker 4: They're the best team money could buy.
• 52:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and they're not banged up like they normally are
• 52:34
  Speaker 5: this time of the year. So first pitch, five o'clock
• 52:38
  Speaker 5: from Toronto. The World Series gets started tonight. If that
• 52:41
  Speaker 5: interests you, I don't care.
• 52:42
  Speaker 4: Item number three.
• 52:43
  Speaker 5: The Huskies will be in action tomorrow against the fighting
• 52:46
  Speaker 5: a line of Illinois.
• 52:47
  Speaker 4: And I know, I know.
• 52:49
  Speaker 5: Look, look, I'm ten years Washingtonian, ten years of Seattle like,
• 52:54
  Speaker 5: and I know how intimidating it can be to face
• 52:57
  Speaker 5: the program I grew up with.
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: One hundred years of mediocrity.
• 53:04
  Speaker 5: Can really be an intimidating thing to go up against, no.
• 53:08
  Speaker 4: Matter what year you faced them.
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Terrifying.
• 53:10
  Speaker 5: So when you gotta face Illinois, my sympathies are with
• 53:14
  Speaker 5: my new Husky fans.
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, thank you. Sorry, Ashley, No, that's sorry.
• 53:20
  Speaker 5: You got to go up against the ghost of Dick
• 53:22
  Speaker 5: Buckus Saturday.
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Now, I'm just picturing the ghost of
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: Dick Buckers.
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: He's a large for some reason, yeah, I think.
• 53:30
  Speaker 6: Yes, yeah, but for some reason the ghost of him
• 53:32
  Speaker 6: is making me laugh.
• 53:34
  Speaker 5: Is the ghost of Dick Buckus the guy from my
• 53:36
  Speaker 5: two Dads or the football player?
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: Definitely the guy from my two Dads.
• 53:41
  Speaker 5: Twelve thirty kickoff from Montlake. Illinois actually is good this year.
• 53:46
  Speaker 5: They are five and two, same record as the Huskies,
• 53:49
  Speaker 5: two and two in conference, same record as the Huskies. Illinois, though,
• 53:52
  Speaker 5: enters this game ranked twenty third in America. Cam Cleveland
• 53:56
  Speaker 5: was on with US Wednesday and gave us a little
• 53:59
  Speaker 5: profile of the Illinois.
• 54:00
  Speaker 10: Well, it's it's Brett v. Lama, and if you ever
• 54:02
  Speaker 10: watch any of his style of football, you'll see that
• 54:05
  Speaker 10: they're two losses in a ranked team. So that that
• 54:07
  Speaker 10: matters because they he knows how to coach the line
• 54:10
  Speaker 10: I are, they can be beat, no question. It's really
• 54:13
  Speaker 10: going to come down to what's our health going to
• 54:15
  Speaker 10: look like. I'm going to say this the rest of
• 54:17
  Speaker 10: the season, we will live and die. In my opinion,
• 54:20
  Speaker 10: with how Demand carries himself in this game, he's put
• 54:23
  Speaker 10: himself on a shoulder as he carries the team's energy
• 54:27
  Speaker 10: and the speed and the tempo. He has that kind
• 54:30
  Speaker 10: of athleticism. So I like to see him be able
• 54:32
  Speaker 10: to take advantage of the defense because they are they
• 54:34
  Speaker 10: are a good defense, but they're not a great defense.
• 54:37
  Speaker 10: And then from our defensive perspective versus their offense, it
• 54:40
  Speaker 10: just is it is there going to be the ability
• 54:43
  Speaker 10: to stop edge, contain tight ends in the flat and
• 54:46
  Speaker 10: I know coach Walters addressed that. So there's there's just
• 54:50
  Speaker 10: so many factors going to this football game. But you
• 54:51
  Speaker 10: got to defend home turf boys. We have to at
• 54:54
  Speaker 10: this point. You're going to make a run late in
• 54:56
  Speaker 10: the season to get ready to be in position at
• 54:59
  Speaker 10: the end of the year against Oregon. You need these
• 55:01
  Speaker 10: home games like there's no tomorrow.
• 55:02
  Speaker 4: Dogs are favored by four and a half points.
• 55:04
  Speaker 5: I'll say this about Illinois, and this is with all seriousness,
• 55:07
  Speaker 5: I'll take the tongue out of my cheek. I think
• 55:09
  Speaker 5: you are going to get a good effort from them,
• 55:12
  Speaker 5: Oh absolutely, And I think that you are facing a
• 55:14
  Speaker 5: quality football opponent. I don't know what we get out
• 55:17
  Speaker 5: of the Dogs from week to week. I don't know
• 55:19
  Speaker 5: what we get out of Demon Williams from week to week.
• 55:21
  Speaker 5: I don't know why with offensive mind like Jedfish, who
• 55:26
  Speaker 5: is as accomplished as he is, that this team can't
• 55:29
  Speaker 5: play good offense until the second half for four straight
• 55:32
  Speaker 5: weeks in a row, and so you better play a
• 55:38
  Speaker 5: good version of you dub football or you're going to
• 55:41
  Speaker 5: lose this game. You certainly aren't going to cover four
• 55:43
  Speaker 5: and a half points. So I know what you're gonna
• 55:47
  Speaker 5: get from Illinois.
• 55:48
  Speaker 4: You're gonna get.
• 55:48
  Speaker 5: Good quarterback play from Altmeyer, and you're gonna get a
• 55:51
  Speaker 5: defense that's gonna pop you in them out. That's what
• 55:53
  Speaker 5: you're gonna get from Illinois. What are we gonna get
• 55:55
  Speaker 5: from you?
• 55:56
  Speaker 4: Dub?
• 55:57
  Speaker 5: That to me is the mystery going into this game.
• 55:59
  Speaker 5: And I wish that I didn't have to say that,
• 56:01
  Speaker 5: because nobody wants to be.
• 56:06
  Speaker 4: A coach of a inconsistent football team, right.
• 56:10
  Speaker 5: That reflects on the coaching staff when you don't know
• 56:12
  Speaker 5: what you're getting from your players from.
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: Week to week.
• 56:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and inconsistent is definitely the way to describe them,
• 56:17
  Speaker 6: and that they're in no position to look past anyone
• 56:19
  Speaker 6: Illinois Perdue whoever.
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: It is like you, you're right about that.
• 56:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you need to be coming and bringing your a
• 56:25
  Speaker 6: game every single week.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: Because you looked terrible last week.
• 56:29
  Speaker 5: It's not a great college football weekend. The SEC is
• 56:32
  Speaker 5: probably gonna have to carry it to a degree. The
• 56:35
  Speaker 5: only three games featuring ranked teams all from the SEC.
• 56:39
  Speaker 5: Eight Ole Miss at thirteen, Oklahoma at nine am Mazoo
• 56:42
  Speaker 5: fifteenth in the country at number ten, Vanderbilt at twelve
• 56:45
  Speaker 5: thirty and number three Texas A and M at number twenty,
• 56:48
  Speaker 5: LSU at four thirty. Rick new Isiel was not with
• 56:51
  Speaker 5: us Tuesday, but ahha, he's going to join us today
• 56:54
  Speaker 5: at nine o'clock to talk about the upcoming week in
• 56:57
  Speaker 5: college football. Meanwhile, the Seahawks are on Otherwise they would
• 57:01
  Speaker 5: have been a hot lot higher on the OHO list.
• 57:03
  Speaker 5: Greg Bell was on with us this morning to talk
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: about Jackson Smith and Jigma. In this ongoing conversation about
• 57:12
  Speaker 5: all right, how do we balance not taking catches away
• 57:17
  Speaker 5: from JSN because he's thriving, and also getting other people involved,
• 57:23
  Speaker 5: it seems like a really difficult task for Clint Kubiak.
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: Ultimately, what it comes down to is Kubiak can design
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: whatever and call whatever plays he wants. And he could
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: say the cup is the primary on this one, or
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: Hohrton is where Barner is, But it's up to the
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: guy who throws the ball and if he's reading or
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: trusting that this and Jig is my guy on this play,
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: that I have a better chance of converting this fourth
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: and one by throwing an eighteen yard out to Smith
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: and Jigba than a two yard out to Barner, then
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: he's gonna.
• 57:51
  Speaker 4: Throw it there right and the one and two.
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: Exactly, And the more times the results are positive, which
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: so far they've been NFL best positive that reinforces Darnold's
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: decision in the snap when he's being chased by three
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: hundred pound guys. He's getting paid to make the right
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: decision at the right time to throw the ball to
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: the right place. It doesn't matter what the play call is.
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: If he thinks that the Smith and jig was his
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: best option, he's going there.
• 58:19
  Speaker 4: Shucks five and two tied to top the NFC West.
• 58:23
  Speaker 5: They will next play on a Sunday night against the
• 58:26
  Speaker 5: Washington Commanders. Will have no idea whether or not Jayden
• 58:29
  Speaker 5: Daniels will play in that game for a while. He's
• 58:32
  Speaker 5: certainly not playing this weekend. This week in the National
• 58:35
  Speaker 5: Football League will be played without the Seahawks, of course,
• 58:39
  Speaker 5: But last night the Chargers and the Vikings got it started.
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: Second of ten at the twenty seven yard line.
• 58:45
  Speaker 5: Chargers up fourteen to three, looking for more Herbert sets
• 58:48
  Speaker 5: and throws, floating.
• 58:49
  Speaker 2: It down the right sideline.
• 58:50
  Speaker 4: McConkey is open. He drops it down the sideline into
• 58:53
  Speaker 4: the end zone.
• 58:54
  Speaker 5: Alad mcconkee touchdown makes it twenty to three. Los Angeles
• 59:01
  Speaker 5: Chargers rule to a thirty seven to ten win over
• 59:03
  Speaker 5: the Minnesota Vikings thanks to a prime video for the audio.
• 59:07
  Speaker 4: Justin Herbert threw.
• 59:08
  Speaker 5: Three touchdown passes and Cam Dicker kicked three field goals,
• 59:12
  Speaker 5: and of course I was going against both of them
• 59:14
  Speaker 5: in fantasy sewer.
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's been one of those years.
• 59:17
  Speaker 5: Chargers improved a five and three, the Vikings fall to
• 59:19
  Speaker 5: three and four.
• 59:20
  Speaker 4: Kind of a crappy.
• 59:21
  Speaker 5: Week in the National Football League. No wonder the Seahawks
• 59:23
  Speaker 5: are on by. They don't want to be associated with it.
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: I get it.
• 59:26
  Speaker 5: Not great games. The best early game or at least
• 59:29
  Speaker 5: most intriguing. Chicago at Baltimore, a one in five team,
• 59:33
  Speaker 5: is your most intriguing early game. Dallas at Denver in
• 59:37
  Speaker 5: the afternoon, and then the Sunday night game is the
• 59:39
  Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers Bowl.
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: The Green Bay Packers will be at Pittsburgh.
• 59:43
  Speaker 5: The Kraken finished a long road trip in impressive fashion.
• 59:48
  Speaker 5: Usually that last game of a road trip's a tough
• 59:50
  Speaker 5: one to win, but the Kraken put it together.
• 59:53
  Speaker 7: Smarts backup top. Hell, did my Larsen right side pact
• 59:56
  Speaker 7: to Shane right before shot? Tiptok goal rebound score, Jaded
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 7: Swartz crashing the goal and the Seattle Cracket burry the
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 7: loose change. It's a one nothing Cracking lead, seventeen thirty
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 7: two left in the second period.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 5: All the delightful ever fits you on the call of
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 5: Cracking hockey right here at Sports Radio ninety three point
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 5: three KJRFM. Jade Schwartz scored two goals, including one of
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 5: two empty netters late. This was really a one nothing
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 5: hockey game with Joey Decord saving everybody's biscuits. Thirty two
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 5: saves thirty two opportunities, and the Cracking go on to
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 5: a three to nothing win.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: That's a big that's a nice win for coach Lambert.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: That is a great win. Yeah, no biscuits in the basket.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 5: Cracking are four to two and two on the early season.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 5: They return home after a lengthy six game road trip.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 5: They host Edmonton tomorrow night at Climate Pledge Arena. They'll
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 5: drop the puck at seven o'clock and the NBA is
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 5: brand new into its season. The Thunder have already played
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 5: two double overtime games in three days.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 4: But the all the NBA world.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 5: All the sports world yesterday was talking about nothing but
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 5: the scandal involving the FBI, Chauncey Phillips, Terry Rosier, Damon
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 5: Jones and all sorts of illegal nonsense.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 4: Boy, we got a scandal on our hand.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 5: Interesting thing because Greg Bile and I talked about this
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 5: earlier today, like the NFL should use this as an
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 5: opportunity to make.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: Sure what clean things up. The clean things up.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 5: And I think to address their relationship with the Daily
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 5: prop bets. And and after we had that conversation Pro
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 5: Football Talk, Greg sent me a little text, yeah, saying,
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 5: given the Terry Rogier situation, the obvious question is whether
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 5: the NFL eventually will have an unders scandal regarding player
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 5: prop bets. The less obvious question is whether it has
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 5: already happened. And so this is Pro Football Talk also
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 5: saying the NFL needs to like address this right now
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 5: and make sure that they don't have their own scandal
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 5: going forward and cast.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 4: Doubt over their own product.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 5: Is there anything wrong with getting together with daily prop
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 5: Bets and just saying on the individual players you can
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 5: only bet overs. No, But if you only bet could
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 5: only bet overs on individual player prop bets, daily prop bets.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 5: That way, the only way that you can win the
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 5: bet is if the player.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 4: Is over at chy.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, if he's actually going out and doing what he's
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 6: supposed to do or above what he's supposed to do.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 4: Why not? Is that like stupid?
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 6: I don't think. I mean I was thinking the same thing.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 6: It doesn't make sense to me why it couldn't happen.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 6: But I also am not a huge gambler, So maybe
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 6: it has to have the boat both options and which
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 6: case then get rid of the prop bets.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 5: Well, I would think that you bet the over or
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 5: you lose the bet, so you do have one way
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 5: you're going to go or they But if we can't
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 5: bet the unders, not on teams but on individual players
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 5: on their prop bets, yeah, well, would that not solve
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 5: worrying on a day to day basis about whether or
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 5: not somebody is dropping balls on purpose or missing shots
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 5: on purpose?
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 6: I would think so it seems like an easy fix
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 6: to me, but clearly it must not be or they
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 6: would have come up with it.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 5: I haven't given it a lot of thought, admittedly, but
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 5: maybe maybe all right, coming on next. Jerry Depoto had
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 5: lots to say yesterday at their season ending press conference.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 5: We'll hear from him next on Sports Radio ninety three
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 5: point three KJRFM each time.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 4: To talk all things college football.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 11: It's just like the menu at Taco Time.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: You just can't get enough.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: You just can't get This is our weekly visit with
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: Rick Neuheisel, brought to you by Taco Time.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 11: Na, those new Heidels used to be a moniker of mine.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 11: I mean, just th you out now on.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 3: Your home for college football Saturdays. Here's Nacho's new Heidel
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: on Sports Radio ninety three point three kjr FM.
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 11: This is college football and I want you to get
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 11: it all over yourself.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 4: Rick new Isel every week, usually on Tuesdays.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 5: So let me first by saying thank you for accommodating
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 5: our baseball coverage and then still joining us this week
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 5: here on a Friday, wouldn't have been the same not
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 5: chatting with you this week.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 11: Always a pleasure to talk college football with you. And
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 11: I'm so sorry about the Mariners.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: But what a great year.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 4: Anyway, Yeah, it was a great year.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 5: And and after a little bit of time, most people
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 5: are going to accept that.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: Right now, Right now, they're have a hard time with
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 4: that coach.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 11: Understood, you get that close to the uh to the fruit,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 11: it's it's it's difficult to come away empty handed. But
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 11: that just makes us hungrier next year.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 5: I got to ask, I want to start our conversation
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 5: by asking you about this NBA story yesterday and what
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 5: kind of reaction you think the powers that be in
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 5: college football had to it. I think the NFL Roger
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 5: Goodell should have sent a warning to him, and I
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 5: would think that college football as well. How difficult it
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 5: is for college coaches, everybody involved to have to deal
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 5: with the specter that is the popularity, overwhelming popularity of gambling.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 11: Well, it's fascinating. As a matter of act. On Sports Center,
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 11: I think it was Greeney right that was sitting there
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 11: talking about the story, and they had ESPN bet on
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 11: the bottom third on that little sign board right that
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 11: does all the advertising, and they had to end up
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 11: taking it off because it was embarrassing. But we are
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 11: in a world where gambling is prevalent and everybody's making
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 11: a ton of money off it. As a matter of fact,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 11: on November first, every college athlete and college coach can
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 11: bet on pro sports because they can't keep up with it.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 11: There's no way to monitor what you're doing, so they're
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 11: going to say, go ahead and bet. You remember last
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 11: year a couple of kids at both Iowa State and
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 11: Iowa were deprived of their eligibility for you know, being
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 11: on those DraftKings things, or using their parents' DraftKings accounts
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 11: to bet on games. It's prevalent, it's just out there,
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 11: and these prop bets are really scary because now individuals
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 11: can literally just say I'm not going to play after
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 11: I start a game and basically make sure that anybody
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 11: who bet on the under is correct. So I get,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 11: I get why we're in this, uh, in this world.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 11: What I can understand is these guys making millions and
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 11: millions of dollars, risking all that for for money that
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 11: can't be anywhere close to that, right what they're already yearning.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 11: It can't be, and yet they find themselves. To me,
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 11: there's something suspicious about this, and it feels like they're
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 11: being extorted, like somebody's got something on them and they're
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 11: being forced to do things that these uh, these uh
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 11: you know cartels or mafia or whatever, right, the Cosa Nostra,
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 11: well whatever, it is. It's forcing. It seems like they're
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 11: being coerced to go along because there's some some information
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 11: that they just don't want out there.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I floated this out earlier in the show. Is
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 5: there any problem with just you can only bet the over?
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 5: Therefore if you lose, you know, then you lose, you
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 5: don't get the over. But it would deincentivize people from
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 5: players from being tempted to take money to drop games
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 5: or drop passes, or whatever the case may be. I
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 5: don't know if I've had enough time to think about that,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 5: but I would think that NFL College Football want to
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 5: align with the people that run these daily prop services.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 5: They know they're not going to get rid of them,
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 5: but can we work together to figure out how we
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 5: can streamline this process so that we aren't made to
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 5: look suspicious game after game for years to come.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 11: Well, it wasn't so long ago. Remember here, we had
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 11: this scandal in college basketball where all the shoe companies
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 11: guys were kind of they arrested four different assistant coaches
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 11: around the country on the same day. These stories yesterday
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 11: in the NBA were not parallel. I mean that one
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 11: was about you know, performing or pulling himself out of
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 11: a game to make sure that people who voted on
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 11: his props would have benefited. The other was a poker game.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 11: I mean, the fact that they announced them both on
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 11: the same day seems to me like a kind of
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 11: a media scheme rather than than necessarily a expose onto
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 11: a real problem. From this standpoint, So listen, what did
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 11: you think was going to happen when you when you
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 11: started putting all this stuff out there, right, and the
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 11: ability to press send on your phone to make a bet?
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 11: What do you think was going to happen? So it
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 11: is a reminder that we've got to monitor it, monitor
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 11: it closely. But the technology out there to you know,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 11: uncover irregularities is pretty amazing and I'm glad for it.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we have bets out there where you can bet
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 5: on a backup two guard to have fewer assists than
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 5: a number.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 4: Incredible, it's incredible. It's incredible. We've been it out that much.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 11: Yeah, Yeah, it's it's amazing. What's availab and be careful
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 11: of what you wish for in life.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, I want to ask you about another big
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 5: picture topic. I don't think it was a coincidence that
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 5: Nebraska played its worst game of the year last week
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 5: with their coach being rumored to be going to Penn
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 5: State and not denying those rumors. I'm not sure it
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 5: was a coincidence that Washington played so poorly against Michigan,
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 5: because even if Jedfish is not involved in other head
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 5: coaching possibilities, the fact that the rumor was out there,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 5: I do wonder what kind of effect that has on
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 5: eighteen to twenty two year olds as they're getting ready
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 5: for their preparation. To remain focused on what's the big
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 5: picture here.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 11: Well, maybe you're aware of what Matt Ruhle did or
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 11: didn't do in terms of talking with this team about it,
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 11: or Jed did or didn't do it talking to his
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 11: team about what's out there as you know, considered the noise.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 11: I'm not aware. But those things are distractions. And for
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 11: the coach who said no distractions, the great Bill Belichick,
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 11: he's been fraught with them.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 11: There have been more distractions at North Carolina than you
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 11: could ever shake a stick at. And so as the
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 11: coach listen, we understand that that's a good thing. When
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 11: they're being sought by other programs, that means they're doing
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 11: a good job that they're considered, you know, that kind
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 11: of elite coach. That's all good, but those conversations and
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 11: they need to be honest. Conversations with the team are
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 11: essential so that you can get back to the focus
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 11: of what's really important. Nebraska's got a tough game this week.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 11: They got Northwestern, who, by the way, very quietly has
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 11: won their last three, including a win over Penn State
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 11: at Penn State and a shutout of Purdue last week.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 11: So to me, this is an interesting game in Lincoln,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 11: and if Matt Rule has any interest in being the
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 11: coach at Penn State, he needs to win because Penn
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 11: State fans aren't going to settle for a guy who
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 11: can't beat Minnesota and Northwestern.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great way of looking at it.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 5: Rick new Eisl is with us our college football insider,
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 5: joining us here of course from CBS Sports, as he
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 5: gets ready for another big college football weekend. You know Jedfish,
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 5: we all know he's a terrific offensive mind. How do
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 5: you explain why the offense here for the Huskies is
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 5: getting off to just horrendously slow starts. I mean, they've
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 5: more often than not picked it up in the second half,
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 5: but they just can't get off to a good start offensively.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 11: You know, I don't know if the different time zones
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 11: have anything to do with that. I know in talking
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 11: to my son who's going to be playing at Indiana tomorrow,
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 11: that you know, the complications of leaving two days before
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 11: is an irregularity, and so forth. At the end of
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 11: the day, this offense goes as Demon Williams goes, and
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 11: Demon Williams in the two games that they've lost is negative,
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 11: been rushing. I think one game he was negative eighteen
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 11: and maybe that was this last weekend against Michigan and
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 11: minus twenty nine against Ohio State. I think Jed needs
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 11: to spend more time figuring out at absolutely calculated runs
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 11: rather than just relying on him to make plays with
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 11: his legs, which obviously is a bonus, but I think
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 11: to find more ways for him to be featured in
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 11: the running game will unlock a little bit more of
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 11: that offense and get him off to a faster start,
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 11: maybe eliminate some of those turnovers which happened predominantly in
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 11: third and long situations.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 5: Have they started this Jerry Neweiel statue yet there near
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 5: Pauly pavilion or oh.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 11: Goodness, hush, huh huh. We don't need any more of
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 11: that talk. I wrote my son. I wrote my son
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 11: a poem the other day. I said, listen, the true
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 11: competitor never listens to the fuss, because if you do,
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 11: it'll be like being run over by a bus, and
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 11: while you're laying there splattered, you'll remember what mattered.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: At the end of the day.
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 11: It's all about us.
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: This is not about you. This is not about.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 11: Anybody in particular. It's about the team finding a way
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 11: to get ready for the next one. Stop listening to
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 11: the chatter because it just doesn't matter.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 5: I liked that it was Susie and more than it
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 5: was Maya Angelo like.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 4: It was.
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 11: Very very doctor suit. That's the extent of my literary
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 11: That's the extent of my literary prowess.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 4: Right there, ring New Eisle with us.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 5: All right, So before we get too far away from you,
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 5: dub Illinois, I just talked about this about an hour ago.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 5: You're going to get a good effort from Illinois. I'm
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 5: not sure what kind of performance we're going to get
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 5: out of Washington. So how do you match these two up?
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 11: You know, Brett Bailima is a unique character in the
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 11: world of college coaching. He's the first that I think
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 11: I know of that put his offensive line on the
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 11: cover of the Media Guide several years ago while coaching
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 11: at Arkansas. He's born in the Wold Noseguard. He's all
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 11: about French warfare, and yet this team is not the
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 11: most physical. This is not his usual team. It's really
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 11: about his quarterback, Luke Altmeyer, and their ability to kind
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 11: of come from behind. Altmeyer's got six come from behind
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 11: victories as the quarterback at Illinois, which is the most
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 11: in the Big Ten. I think Washington will be fine
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 11: in this game again, assuming that Demon Williams gets back
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 11: to being able to run the ball for positive yardage.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 11: That puts the defense on the heels, and that's not
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 11: been Illinois strength, and they really don't have a running
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 11: game to challenge that and control the ball like maybe
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 11: Ohio State did when the last time Washington lost a
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 11: home game. So to me, I like the dogs in
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 11: this game, but they've got to get back to playing
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 11: air free and Demon Williams football.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 5: Diego Pavia's heisman pose premature or prophetic.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 11: I think this kid's just I think this kid's just
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 11: the coolest. I met him at the SEC media days
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 11: and he is who he says he is. It is
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 11: not an act. He is charming as the day is long.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 11: You would love him, and I'm here for it. I
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 11: just think this is the coolest story. Obviously, I am
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 11: a little bit biased because Clark Lee was on my
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 11: staff at UCLA and I'm really proud of what's happening there.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 11: But this Diego guy has given Vanderbilt and the entire
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 11: university an edge, and that edge is fun to watch,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 11: and it's not an accident. When was the last time, Chuck,
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 11: you heard Vanderbilt scoring forty one points a game? Never,
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 11: that's Vanderbilt, That's never right. They were favored last week
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 11: against LSU for the first time since nineteen forty seven.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 11: So this is rare air stuff and I'm here for it.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 11: And while Missouri's have a great year, and Eli Drinkwitz
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 11: is also you know, a guy that probably needs the
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 11: brass up re up him because he's going to be
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 11: in the all these coaching searches, whether it be at
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 11: Florida or Penn State. I think Vanderbilt gets the win.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 5: Ole Miss at Oklahoma obviously, old Miss can't afford to
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 5: slide here. And yet Lane Kiffen was involved in some
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 5: of those coaching rumors this week. So how does he
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 5: convince his players he's not going anywhere and that they
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 5: need to be focused on Oklahoma.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 11: Well, the good news at Ole Miss is this is regular. Yeah,
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 11: he's always in the coaching search. You recall the Auburn
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 11: game not so very long ago, although they ended up
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 11: losing that game to Mississippi State. So this is this
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 11: is you know, the usual suspects. Now the Jimmy Sexton
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 11: client list is all out there, so I don't think
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 11: this impacts. But I do think Oklahoma wins the game
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 11: because Oklahoma's front seven can can stop the run. As
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 11: good as Trinidad Sambliss has played, he can't gloss over
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 11: the fact that that defense gave up a bunch of
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 11: points last week to Georgia. And I think John Mattier
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 11: having another week to heal and including his legs in
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 11: the offense is enough for you to get the win.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 5: In Norman LSU and Texas A and m as Marcel
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 5: Reid getting overlooked in this Heisman talking, is that good
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 5: for him? And then secondarily, are they a national championship contender.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 5: I mean, everybody you've put in front of them this year,
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 5: they've mowed down.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 11: I think this is a giant stage for A and M.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 11: Obviously the A and M. The A and M victory
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 11: at Notre Dame was that, but it was so early
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 11: in the season and the fact that Miami that Notre
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 11: Dame had lost the first week, we weren't sure how
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 11: good Notre Dame was. They're showing us they're pretty good.
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 11: I think this is a great coming out party for
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 11: Marcel Reid. This defense has been unbelievable and we got
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 11: a kind of patched up offensive line. No running game
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 11: for l s U. They're going to play with a
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 11: freshman left tackle. I like A and M in this game,
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 11: and if Marcel Reid plays like he's been playing, I
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 11: think we're going to add him to the list of candidates,
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 11: which now include Diego, Fernando, Trinidad, and Marcel.
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 4: That sounds like like a boy band. That isn't Caribbean.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 11: Isn't a boy band? I don't know exactly right.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 5: Isn't that Manudo? I believe that is are the four
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 5: guys that were in Menudo. If I'm not mistaken, all right,
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 5: what's your what's our Taco Time pick of the week here.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 11: So this one came to be by by way of
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 11: Dick Fain yesterday he reminded me that Toledo is a
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 11: favorite in Pullman this weekend. The Rockets are a good team,
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 11: and but they're not that rocket strength this year. They
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 11: have been a little bit porous by their own standards.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 11: Jason Kandell, the quarter the coach there, I think, would
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 11: say this is not one of his best teams. And
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 11: they traveled to the Polouse and the Cougar's returned from
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 11: the road weary team that went on the road and
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 11: took Ole Miss to twenty four to twenty one loss
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 11: and lost to Virginia, a top twenty team twenty to twenty.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 11: I think Washington State as a dog here is ridiculous.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 11: I'm taking the Cougar.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 4: I think that's great pick man.
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 5: I'm barely impressed with what Rodgers has done here turning
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 5: this thing around, because first couple of weeks I'm like.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 11: Oh, that's been that's been inspired football.
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, holy smokes.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 11: And Toledo is not the great Toledo teams that we've
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 11: seen in the MAC.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: This is doable. I love this ex house.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 11: Kid to continue a trend to playing great on weekends.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: So give me the coch.
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 5: All right, I'm just going to warn you right now,
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 5: if the Bruins beat the Hoosiers this weekend, your son
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 5: won't even accept your mail.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 11: More poems in the offing, More Susian, more Susian wisdom.
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: Aheaded his way.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 4: You know, I gave him a little Yoda.
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 1: Too, do or not do? There is no.
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 4: Try put forward your best son, And.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 11: If you look in the mirror, I'm looking a little
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 11: more Yoda ask every day.
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 5: Well, all we gotta do if we want to remember
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 5: Rick new Heisl in his prime is look at Jerry
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 5: new Heisel, because it's the exact same person.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 4: All right, thank you, coach.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 11: We'll hope for better for him.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 4: We'll hope for.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 5: Rick new isil joining us right here on Chuck and
• 1:20:47

• 1:20:49

• 1:20:56
  Speaker 5: And I'm going to go ahead and wrap up my
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 5: agenda here today by talking about the Mariners starting pitchers

  Speaker 4: It is yes, right past my lips.
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 2: Well, let's just say it. This week's Booze News is
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: way suckier than last week's.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, last week we had hope, we had belief,
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 6: we had knots in our stomach and stress diarrhea, that
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 6: it was really great. This week, we've got an atmospheric
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 6: river to wash away our tears and that's it. Yeah,
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 6: we've got other sports, and yeah, those sports matter. There's
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 6: an emptiness in our hearts where the World Series was
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 6: supposed to be.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 4: There's a hole in our heart that could only be
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 4: filled by it, and that's the truth.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 6: Now we've got Game one of that stupid series tonight,
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 6: and I hope both teams lose, which apparently can't happen.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 4: To these This.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: Sucks it cuz, yes, it was an exciting ride.
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 6: There were some spectacular moments, and we got to make
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 6: memories as Mariners fans, and all of those are amazing.
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 6: But the wound, it's still wide open and it is
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 6: a gaping hole of emotions.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 10: Hmm.
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 2: Thank goodness for booze. We drink when we're celebrating, and
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: we drink when we've fallen into a pit of despair.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: So that's fun.
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 4: Cheers, Thanks Ben Holiday.
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 6: Thanks Ben Holiday. At least we have the Seahawks to
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 6: pick us up this weekend. Oh wait, bye week great timing.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we could have poured our emotions into football again.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 4: Gosh.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 6: Well, the Craken are coming off a road win and
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 6: headed back home tonight, and that is exciting. It doesn't
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 6: seem like or it does seem like it's a different
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 6: feeling with this team under Lane Lambert, even though I
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 6: cannot put in my head that that's his actual real name. Yeah,
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 6: and every time I write it, then I have to
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 6: go Google it to make sure it's his real name.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 6: And I didn't make it up in my head.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 4: I know what you're thinking. You think his name is
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 4: Count Dracula. And then when I think of.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 6: Lambert, I think of like Lambert, and I'm like, he's
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 6: not a sheepish lion.
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 4: Oh, he's a vampire.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 5: He's the only vampire coaching a major professional sports team
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 5: here in America and Canada.
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 2: And we've got that going for us.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, which is great.
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: I love it.
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, me too. Time we're gonna be terrible during day games.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 2: I am a fan, Burt, I just made that up.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 4: Are you a fan?
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 2: So far, so far, so good.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 6: I'm excited to see what the Cracking can do this season.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 6: Hopefully a playoff run that doesn't rip my heart from
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 6: my chest with one pitch.
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm telling you what if George comes in, slaps
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 5: one from the blue line and beats us in the playoffs,
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 5: I give up.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 4: On all sports. That happens.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 6: The Husky's host the ferocious fighting the lion I tomorrow,
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 6: and I'm really hoping for a win at home.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 2: They need it.
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, we need it.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, coming off last week. Yeah, just get a solid
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 2: win in the rain. Give those fans that are gonna
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: tough it out.
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 4: Look on behalf.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 5: With all my love for Washington, you know you can't
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 5: take the Illinois completely out of the boy.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry in advance that you're having to face such
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 4: a powerhouse. Yeah on Saturday, yep, I agree.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 2: It is a tough test.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 5: Well, you're a favorite, though. Think about that accomplishment. That's
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 5: pretty incredible, right, Yeah, favorite against that jugger?
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 4: Not how did that happen?
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 6: The NBA at least distracted us from some of our
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 6: misery by unloading a massive scandal involving the actual mafia
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 6: on It's Yesterday, Like the actual Mafia. I don't want
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 6: to say it too loud in case they're listening. At
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 6: least we don't have to worry about it. Great, by
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 6: the way, guys are doing keep up the great one.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, really killing it.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 2: Really like what you're doing. Yeah, I like what you
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 2: said there. At least we don't have to worry about
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 2: anyone on our NBA team being involved.
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 4: More despair. Ah, it's got a bucket loaded despair.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 2: So much despair.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 6: I'm done.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm done.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 4: We got a hole in our buckets.
