- 1:11Speaker 6: We did not care.
- 1:12Speaker 7: Then Yeah, the last whole thing was Leonard.
- 1:14Speaker 6: Oh, I knew the Leonard, but I didn't hear him
- 1:16Speaker 6: say I ain't blanking leaving.
- 1:19Speaker 7: Hey, you know there was lots of swearing that happened.
- 1:21Speaker 6: Why was why was he even thinking that we were
- 1:24Speaker 6: thinking he was leaving. I don't know, he's not free agent.

- 1:48Speaker 6: do like me the big cat man. I like, I
- 1:50Speaker 6: like the way he comes off. I like the way
- 1:52Speaker 6: that he's embraced the city. He just seems like he
- 1:55Speaker 6: just seems so miserable in his first half of his career,
- 1:59Speaker 6: and it's like now he seems so content and so wealthy.
- 2:02Speaker 4: Yeah.

- 4:33Speaker 4: Yeah, we call you unfortunately. M Yeah, so don't don't.
- 4:38Speaker 6: Turn your phone off, Greg, I mean, I guess we

- 4:44Speaker 4: I really don't want.
- 4:45Speaker 5: To m h.
- 4:48Speaker 4: Al right, okay, Oh we're gonna have fun. Don't worry.
- 4:54Speaker 4: Our plan is to talk. Our plan is to.
- 4:56Speaker 6: Talk all baseball next week. But I'm just saying you're good.
- 5:00Speaker 4: Things happened. Things happened.
- 5:02Speaker 5: It's a little early in that frea good.
- 5:04Speaker 6: No, this is we always go this week. Now it
- 5:07Speaker 6: is a week earlier because of the WBC. It's a
- 5:10Speaker 6: WBC or so it's a little bit earlier.
- 5:13Speaker 5: I remember from covering my many years covering spring trainings
- 5:16Speaker 5: as a beat writer. But there was frost on the
- 5:18Speaker 5: ground and little nippy in the February part of spring
- 5:21Speaker 5: training bucket.
- 5:22Speaker 9: I had to forge towel pants. Yeah, a couple of
- 5:25Speaker 9: years ago. Yeah, it was my first year. They went right,
- 5:28Speaker 9: and I just didn't. I was actually spring training. I
- 5:30Speaker 9: took I never took pants to spring training. And that
- 5:34Speaker 9: was because usually when you're running around, I didn't get cold,
- 5:36Speaker 9: and yet usually at six am. Yeah, that's true.
- 5:39Speaker 8: Together year you had to get a coat and then
- 5:41Speaker 8: Steven Susan made fun of you because it was small.
- 5:44Speaker 9: Yeah, well that's the fat guy in little coat. That happens.
- 5:48Speaker 9: For what it's worth Mule and them. They don't bring
- 5:51Speaker 9: jackets for three hundred and fifty pound guys. Uh, spring
- 5:53Speaker 9: training for some reason.
- 5:55Speaker 4: I don't know why.
- 5:56Speaker 6: One year you had to drop firewood if I remember,
- 5:58Speaker 6: and uh forma a little small roasting pit.
- 6:02Speaker 4: Yeah, has to warm your tutsis. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 6:05Speaker 9: Nobody else called tutsis when they're doing spring training coverage.
- 6:09Speaker 6: Anyway, we we hope that we can give you a
- 6:12Speaker 6: week away from us because you've earned it. But let's
- 6:15Speaker 6: go ahead and launch into this off season and some
- 6:18Speaker 6: of the conversations that are going to be held here
- 6:20Speaker 6: over the course of the next month. And let's start
- 6:24Speaker 6: with Ocie. Where's it sit right now? What do you
- 6:26Speaker 6: expect to come out in the wash?
- 6:29Speaker 5: They're interviewing internal candidates. McDonald said Monday told us as
- 6:34Speaker 5: early as Tuesday they were going to start interviewing internal candidates.
- 6:37Speaker 5: Says that Hot and Uh, Dick, Pete and Jinoko those
- 6:42Speaker 5: are the three on the staff who immediately come to
- 6:46Speaker 5: mind as someone that would be interested in doing that.
- 6:48Speaker 5: And incidentally, Frismond Jackson is being interviewed by Kubiak for
- 6:52Speaker 5: the offense of coordinator with the Raiders, and that tells
- 6:54Speaker 5: you if they're going to the sea wide receiver coach
- 6:57Speaker 5: who has been here even before them tell got here,
- 7:01Speaker 5: then they are keeping their main guys. And I've been
- 7:04Speaker 5: told that they're keeping their main guys. I mean offensive
- 7:08Speaker 5: line codes, the quarterbacks coach, they know, the offensive line coach,
- 7:13Speaker 5: John Betton. As I'd mentioned, it is so key to
- 7:16Speaker 5: what they do, what they did this year, and what
- 7:18Speaker 5: they do going forward. So it doesn't look like it's
- 7:21Speaker 5: going to be the raid of the Seahawks staff by
- 7:24Speaker 5: click Kubiak. He wasn't here long enough to have that
- 7:26Speaker 5: cachet with Mike McDonald. McDonald's not going to let him
- 7:30Speaker 5: come in here and leaving just one year and take
- 7:32Speaker 5: all the main key assistance with them to the Raiders
- 7:35Speaker 5: that appears.
- 7:36Speaker 9: Gee, help me understand that part, because I don't know.
- 7:39Speaker 9: I mean, I get what you're saying, where he's like, well,
- 7:41Speaker 9: you've only been here one year. You don't get to
- 7:43Speaker 9: just bring in guys or take guys on your way out.
- 7:46Speaker 9: And yet I mean, I don't understand how they could
- 7:49Speaker 9: stop him. Was it just a gentleman's agreement, like hey,
- 7:52Speaker 9: we're letting you finish, you know, finish off this deal
- 7:54Speaker 9: with the Raiders, maybe a little bit prematurely, or or
- 7:57Speaker 9: just hey, we understand you're going to get some interest
- 8:00Speaker 9: to be a head coach. Don't go trying to dismantle
- 8:03Speaker 9: us from the inside out.
- 8:05Speaker 5: Yeah, it's exactly that they if push came to shove.
- 8:08Speaker 5: NFL rules are if you offer an assistant coach a
- 8:12Speaker 5: promotion both in pay and title, that you can't as
- 8:14Speaker 5: a team block that. But it's McDonald just talking to
- 8:18Speaker 5: the side of kuby X and wait a minute, you
- 8:20Speaker 5: just got here. You're going to be rift our staff,
- 8:24Speaker 5: And yes, it's that. And it's the relationships that McDonald
- 8:29Speaker 5: has with his assistance, including Kubiak, that would prevent that.
- 8:32Speaker 5: But you're right by a rule. If the Raiders offered,
- 8:35Speaker 5: say Andrew Jenoco the quarterbacks coach, a often's a coordinator
- 8:38Speaker 5: job both of raising title and pay. The can officially
- 8:42Speaker 5: cannot officially blalok.
- 8:44Speaker 6: Greg Mellas whether it's our Siak's insider. Of course, join
- 8:47Speaker 6: us all football season long thanks to a cople of
- 8:50Speaker 6: diamond collection Prosecco, and you can gobble up all of
- 8:54Speaker 6: his information there at the Newstribune dot com and follow
- 8:58Speaker 6: him at g Bell Seattle throughout the all season, but
- 9:00Speaker 6: the NFL has decided to give him like seven hours
- 9:03Speaker 6: to rest and relax and recover from a long football
- 9:07Speaker 6: season of coverage. Let's talk about Ken Walker. That seems
- 9:11Speaker 6: to be the number one off season story. I'm sure
- 9:16Speaker 6: they want to keep him. How does it look in
- 9:19Speaker 6: terms of whether or not they will keep him.
- 9:22Speaker 5: I'm not sure they want to keep him because they've
- 9:24Speaker 5: had a chance to keep him now for a year.
- 9:27Speaker 5: I understood why this time last year they didn't want
- 9:29Speaker 5: to give Hi an extension his injury history, the injury
- 9:32Speaker 5: history of the position, but not now and not during
- 9:35Speaker 5: the season either. When they did the job share with Charbon.
- 9:38Speaker 5: A part of it was to manage keath Walker through
- 9:42Speaker 5: the season and get him through seventeen games, playing them
- 9:44Speaker 5: all for the first time in his career. Part of
- 9:46Speaker 5: it also was an audition for Zach charbonay to see
- 9:49Speaker 5: if he would be worthy of a lead back roll.
- 9:53Speaker 5: Charbon's contract ends after next year because he was drafted
- 9:55Speaker 5: a year after Walker. Cheaper younger is usually the way
- 9:59Speaker 5: NFL teams either want to go have to go because
- 10:02Speaker 5: of the salary cap, and if the Seahawks deem that
- 10:06Speaker 5: Charbon A can produce at something of the level of
- 10:09Speaker 5: Walker in this offense, then they would let Walker walk.
- 10:13Speaker 5: And it looked like that was what most of the
- 10:14Speaker 5: season it was going to be. And then charbon A
- 10:18Speaker 5: has a season ending injury in ACL tear that will
- 10:20Speaker 5: take eight to twelve months to recover. He had happened
- 10:23Speaker 5: in January, which means mid August at the earliest is
- 10:27Speaker 5: the typical return time from ACM. Mid August is the
- 10:30Speaker 5: middle Attorney camp to me, Shabonay injury changed everything. The
- 10:35Speaker 5: problem with the Seahawks now if they want to come
- 10:37Speaker 5: back to Walker is his price. Of course, will never
- 10:39Speaker 5: be hired twenty five year old Super Bowl MVP who
- 10:42Speaker 5: carried it through the playoffs. But also Walker has new
- 10:45Speaker 5: representatives as of three weeks ago, as we've talked about
- 10:49Speaker 5: a few times, he fired his agents and hired David
- 10:51Speaker 5: Canter and the Eurosports Group based in Florida the week
- 10:54Speaker 5: of the NFC title game. So his new agents don't
- 10:58Speaker 5: have any reason for say to say to Kenneth Walker,
- 11:04Speaker 5: you should listen to the Seahawks offer. They have every
- 11:07Speaker 5: reason to say they had their chance, go try free
- 11:10Speaker 5: agency and see how much the market will bear you,
- 11:12Speaker 5: this is the first time in your life you could
- 11:14Speaker 5: be open market, free agent, open to the highest bidder.
- 11:17Speaker 5: And now that they're only four weeks from that market opening,
- 11:19Speaker 5: March ninth is the negotiating window. March eleventh is when
- 11:23Speaker 5: officially the deals can be creating, deals can get announced.
- 11:27Speaker 5: I see very little reason for Walker to accept whatever
- 11:30Speaker 5: the seahawks eleventh hour offer might be. But having said
- 11:34Speaker 5: all of that, he definitely does want to stay here.
- 11:37Speaker 5: And they all say that after they win a Super Bowl,
- 11:39Speaker 5: of course, but it's true in Walker's case, he has
- 11:42Speaker 5: said that from the start, this is where he wants
- 11:45Speaker 5: to be. He's very comfortable. He somewhat likes the behind
- 11:50Speaker 5: the scenes nature that the Seahawks usually are around the
- 11:52Speaker 5: league and being out here in Southeast Alaska as we are,
- 11:56Speaker 5: and he's got a coaching staff that obviously values the
- 12:00Speaker 5: run a game, which Walker couldn't say that the whole
- 12:02Speaker 5: four years he was here. They will make a play
- 12:05Speaker 5: for him. It's a question of how tempted Walker will
- 12:09Speaker 5: be to see what his open value market is. I
- 12:11Speaker 5: think if it goes to free agency, he's gone. I
- 12:14Speaker 5: think he'll get a deal that Sieluks won't want to match.
- 12:16Speaker 5: But we've mentioned before NFL general managers are very leary
- 12:20Speaker 5: of giving big bucks multi year contracts for running backs
- 12:23Speaker 5: because of their injury history.
- 12:25Speaker 9: Yeah, Greg, I'm with you, and so of the rest
- 12:28Speaker 9: of the free agents or free agents to be I mean,
- 12:33Speaker 9: give me a guy that you think might be top
- 12:35Speaker 9: of their list to give money met. We have Rashid Shaheed,
- 12:39Speaker 9: Rik Wolan, probably Boy Mafe, Kobe Bryant, and Josh Joe Ball,
- 12:43Speaker 9: all significant players on the Super Bowl championship team. Of
- 12:46Speaker 9: those guys, if they're going to dish out the big
- 12:49Speaker 9: money and it's not, if it's not to Ken Walker,
- 12:51Speaker 9: who who would you think it's going to be.
- 12:54Speaker 5: I think Rashid Shaheed, and I think they could get
- 12:57Speaker 5: him in a deal. It wouldn't be as rich as
- 12:59Speaker 5: but Walker's because of the position he's an All Pro
- 13:04Speaker 5: Pro Bowl kick returner and not so much as Hugh
- 13:08Speaker 5: brought out yesterday, top wide receiver. They think they have
- 13:11Speaker 5: a top wide receiver that's going to be back in
- 13:13Speaker 5: time for training camp next year, Tory Horton. And we've
- 13:16Speaker 5: only seen half of the season of what Tory Horton
- 13:19Speaker 5: could be and the two touchdowns against Washington. He looked
- 13:21Speaker 5: everything like why they drafted him, and that was the
- 13:24Speaker 5: game that he had the season nying injury. They believe
- 13:27Speaker 5: he's going to be back in time for training camp.
- 13:29Speaker 5: In fact, Tory Horton, my photographer shot a picture Tory
- 13:33Speaker 5: Horton walking the parade round on Wednesday, which is a
- 13:36Speaker 5: good sign that his leg is signed to play. So
- 13:40Speaker 5: they think they have the receiver the deep the speedy
- 13:44Speaker 5: deep threat receiver in Horton, and they could keep the
- 13:47Speaker 5: speedy deep threat while the game changing kick returner in
- 13:52Speaker 5: Rashid Shaheed proclaimed the first day he was here that
- 13:55Speaker 5: he wants to retire here. He elected so much in
- 13:57Speaker 5: Seattle and then he did what he did, and I said,
- 14:00Speaker 5: you could argue was an MVP of the second half
- 14:03Speaker 5: of the season, including that Rams comeback game and the
- 14:06Speaker 5: jump started a division championship, a division playoff game against
- 14:09Speaker 5: the forty nine ers. I think she heats Dan and
- 14:13Speaker 5: I think that's the first priority. I think that might
- 14:15Speaker 5: be the first re up signing we're going to hear
- 14:17Speaker 5: the offseason. They have a depth of corners that we know.
- 14:22Speaker 5: They've had three corners playing two spots. Job Woolen and Witherspoon.
- 14:28Speaker 5: I think Woolan's gonna end up leaving, and he's been
- 14:32Speaker 5: valuable to the team that he also is going to
- 14:35Speaker 5: command money for as much playing time as he had
- 14:37Speaker 5: of the rookie contract and the fact that he was
- 14:40Speaker 5: a pro bowler as a rookie, and he has unique
- 14:44Speaker 5: physical talents. Again, players that are this close to being
- 14:49Speaker 5: a free agent for the first time generational wealth, we're
- 14:51Speaker 5: talking one hundred million dollar plus tend to go find
- 14:54Speaker 5: that market and see.
- 14:55Speaker 6: What it is of Bryant and Job which is more
- 14:59Speaker 6: likely to stay.
- 15:02Speaker 5: I think it would take more to keep Kobe Bryant,
- 15:06Speaker 5: who has started more and played more snaps. When other
- 15:09Speaker 5: teams look at him, they would value him more. I
- 15:13Speaker 5: think Mike McDonald would value keeping their starting safety. He
- 15:17Speaker 5: really likes Kobe Bryant. I think Joe could stay and
- 15:22Speaker 5: it wouldn't be as expensive part time starter, former waiver
- 15:26Speaker 5: pickup from Philadelphia. I think they keep both, but the
- 15:30Speaker 5: money guy would cost him a little more and they
- 15:32Speaker 5: will spend on is Kobe Bryant. Again, they have seventy
- 15:35Speaker 5: three million dollars in sorry cap space, which is a
- 15:38Speaker 5: lot of money for them. At this time. But part
- 15:39Speaker 5: of the reason, guys they have that much money. They
- 15:42Speaker 5: have only forty three players under contract for next year
- 15:45Speaker 5: and you're going to have fifty three any active roster.
- 15:47Speaker 5: So they got to buy ten spots. And when you
- 15:50Speaker 5: buy ten spots, that gets gobbled up rather quickly. It
- 15:55Speaker 5: makes it interesting how much money they're going to offer
- 15:57Speaker 5: their big free agent, their key free agent starters are
- 16:01Speaker 5: due to free agency.
- 16:02Speaker 6: Well, what is number one on the shopping list? If
- 16:04Speaker 6: if John gets to splurge on something not in the house,
- 16:08Speaker 6: what position do you think that he's going to target.
- 16:13Speaker 5: I think it's the line of scrimmage. I think they're
- 16:16Speaker 5: going to add to the competition for Anthony Bradford of Redguard.
- 16:20Speaker 5: I think they're going to add to linebacker, even though
- 16:22Speaker 5: Drake Thomas was an out of nowhere find inside weakside
- 16:27Speaker 5: linebacker next to Ernest Jones. And they don't have enough
- 16:31Speaker 5: depth of the defensive line because they never have enough
- 16:33Speaker 5: depth of defensive line. As great as his front four played,
- 16:35Speaker 5: they played a lot of snaps this year. Byron Murphy
- 16:38Speaker 5: went way up, I mean from forty nine to seventy percent.
- 16:42Speaker 5: Leonard Williams is not getting younger thirty three. Neither is
- 16:46Speaker 5: the Marcus Lawrence will be thirty four next year or
- 16:49Speaker 5: next season. They need depth. It's the defensive line bringing back.
- 16:54Speaker 5: Jaron reed to a question the locker room leader, he's
- 16:59Speaker 5: going to get offered a deal, probably a shorter term deal.
- 17:02Speaker 5: He loves Seattle and is such an integral part of
- 17:04Speaker 5: that locker room. I think he'll be back with a
- 17:06Speaker 5: probably a one year deal rather than a multi year
- 17:08Speaker 5: deal that he's gotten up to now. It's a good
- 17:11Speaker 5: problem to have a lot of players who want to
- 17:13Speaker 5: be here, a lot of good players, but you can't
- 17:17Speaker 5: keep everybody. The league just won't let you. It's the
- 17:19Speaker 5: way of cre agency in the subwary gift.

- 17:58Speaker 5: Early in our marriage we lived in Oakland, went out
- 18:00Speaker 5: to dinner and we had a bad experience, and we
- 18:02Speaker 5: decided that the best servers stay home on Valentine's Day
- 18:05Speaker 5: and they bring out the rookies, and so ever since
- 18:08Speaker 5: then we have homemade lasagna and homemade brownie. I ended
- 18:11Speaker 5: up making the brownies and lazagna at home. Do that

- 18:50Speaker 6: I watch a lot of cooking shows and people can't
- 18:53Speaker 6: make risotto. It turns out even like expert chefs.
- 18:56Speaker 5: It's true. It's hard to do it very easily, can
- 18:59Speaker 5: make it gravel. It tastes like great nuts. So you

- 21:29Speaker 6: Super Bowl title. Thank you.
- 21:32Speaker 3: One of these times I'm going to get like a
- 21:33Speaker 3: proper compliment from you in my introduction, like like not
- 21:39Speaker 3: not not a celebrity type, but maybe just maybe it's
- 21:44Speaker 3: a celebrity maybe you know, this guy is fame adjacent.
- 21:53Speaker 6: I loved you into the category with Chris Pratt and
- 21:56Speaker 6: everybody all celebrity types.
- 21:57Speaker 4: I put you in that poll there. Yeah, that's what
- 21:59Speaker 4: I did. We are all celebrity types.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Yeah, well, thank you for the congratulations.
- 22:05Speaker 4: I worked very hard. I earned this through you.
- 22:07Speaker 3: Didn't much stress many steps, So thank you. It's been
- 22:12Speaker 3: it's been a fun, fun few days to be a
- 22:14Speaker 3: really it's been a fun month and a half to
- 22:16Speaker 3: be a Seahawks fan.
- 22:17Speaker 9: Did you have to watch any of it through your hands?
- 22:19Speaker 9: I had watched. I know you were on a cruise,
- 22:21Speaker 9: you were with other celebrity types and BARGATCHI and whatnot.
- 22:26Speaker 4: There was actual celebrities in that room.
- 22:29Speaker 9: Types I would so I knew that you were gonna
- 22:33Speaker 9: be like, I'm so excited to watch it by myself.
- 22:35Speaker 9: Did you watch any of it through your hands or
- 22:37Speaker 9: was it pretty easy watching for you?
- 22:40Speaker 3: My my listen, I was I was paid to be
- 22:44Speaker 3: on that boat, and so it was important that I, uh,
- 22:48Speaker 3: you know, be a team player as far as the
- 22:52Speaker 3: gatherings go the social gathering. So I told myself, I'm
- 22:56Speaker 3: going to go watch the first half here, and as
- 22:58Speaker 3: long as things don't get out of hand one way
- 23:00Speaker 3: or the other too stressful, uh, then then I'll stay
- 23:04Speaker 3: for the whole game. And uh, and the fact that
- 23:07Speaker 3: Nate's paying for the open bar that will probably help
- 23:11Speaker 3: me get through it in a lot of different ways.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Ends up very stressful, stress free, uh as far as
- 23:17Speaker 3: games go, and the open bar really became more of
- 23:20Speaker 3: a celebratory open bar. So I watched it all amongst
- 23:24Speaker 3: amongst some people who are really bored by the game,
- 23:29Speaker 3: which is the best, people who are complaining about the
- 23:32Speaker 3: game as you're celebrating.
- 23:35Speaker 6: All right, so you've sort of, you know, let it
- 23:38Speaker 6: be known, you know, in one of your catchphrases as
- 23:41Speaker 6: a or as a Seattle sports fan, is never a doubt,
- 23:45Speaker 6: even when there often is a lot of doubt. So
- 23:49Speaker 6: did when did you let go of your doubt during
- 23:52Speaker 6: the Super Bowl?
- 23:56Speaker 4: Probably? Yeah, probably Drake's pick.
- 24:01Speaker 3: That's probably the one where because you know, after they
- 24:05Speaker 3: scored the touchdown, it didn't look like that.
- 24:09Speaker 5: I mean, you just.
- 24:10Speaker 3: Go if I played this game with you guys, A
- 24:13Speaker 3: lot objective, subjective, subjective or objective. I would go listen,
- 24:18Speaker 3: that was a fluke touchdown. There's no way they can
- 24:21Speaker 3: keep this going. That was too lucky plays subjective. I'm going, well,
- 24:25Speaker 3: here comes the collapse. Here we go, this is how
- 24:28Speaker 3: it starts. Here we go again one more time being
- 24:35Speaker 3: a Seattle sports fan. What way are they gonna hurt
- 24:38Speaker 3: me this time? But once he threw the pick a
- 24:42Speaker 3: terrible just right over to anyone, I mean, just who
- 24:46Speaker 3: wants it pick? I thought, oh, he might not be
- 24:48Speaker 3: very good. And then then it felt pretty good. And
- 24:52Speaker 3: I went and I got someone else. I went and
- 24:55Speaker 3: got myself some more. I got myself another hot pretzel,
- 24:58Speaker 3: full hot pretzels being served.
- 24:59Speaker 5: Wow. Leave that.
- 25:00Speaker 6: Yeah, well it's a cruise ship. You can get all
- 25:03Speaker 6: the food.
- 25:03Speaker 4: You want, right exactly.
- 25:05Speaker 9: Yeah, open bar and full preps.
- 25:07Speaker 4: Wow. What experience? And a win all right exactly?
- 25:11Speaker 5: And a win?
- 25:12Speaker 4: What a life?
- 25:13Speaker 9: What possessed you to wear slash purchase the lucidor mask
- 25:18Speaker 9: and the poncho thing that I saw you were in?
- 25:21Speaker 3: Well, you know I had spent the day in Coasta Maya, Mexico.
- 25:27Speaker 9: When in Rome, that was our that was our land.
- 25:30Speaker 5: Day.
- 25:30Speaker 3: That was our day where we were actually in Mexico,
- 25:32Speaker 3: and and I was cruising the shops and saw the poncho,
- 25:36Speaker 3: and then a few shops later I saw the mask
- 25:39Speaker 3: and I thought, well, I mean when in Rome, I
- 25:41Speaker 3: think this is uh, I think this is meant.
- 25:43Speaker 5: To be so.
- 25:46Speaker 3: Yeah, and also in large party, did you know it
- 25:50Speaker 3: did hide some of my negative facial expressions, which my
- 25:53Speaker 3: wife preferred because she's like, hey, everyone's having a lot
- 25:56Speaker 3: of fun on this cruise and you're kind of bringing
- 25:58Speaker 3: the vibes down. And I said, I'm sorry that I
- 26:01Speaker 3: care too much amongst weirdos. Where do you rank amongst
- 26:09Speaker 3: the weirdosh? If your weirdness on your friends on the
- 26:14Speaker 3: ship there, oh, I would say, I'm pretty right in
- 26:20Speaker 3: the middle. Yeah, I don't right in the middle. Nothing crazy, okay, yeah, no,
- 26:26Speaker 3: nothing crazy as far as like habits or hobbies or
- 26:30Speaker 3: allegations or anything like that.
- 26:32Speaker 4: That's great, pretty pretty friends, great group of friends and
- 26:36Speaker 4: co workers.
- 26:37Speaker 6: If you're the guy that's standing on the deck in
- 26:40Speaker 6: a Mexican wrestling mask and poncho and you're pretty much
- 26:44Speaker 6: in the middle, yeah of them sounds fun?
- 26:47Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, there's nothing there's nothing.
- 26:51Speaker 4: Super outlandish about that.
- 26:53Speaker 3: I mean, I think they're just as one of the comedians.
- 26:56Speaker 3: I think that where they're happy that I'm just closed honestly.
- 27:00Speaker 9: Yeah, did you end up doing the I mean in celebration,
- 27:04Speaker 9: did you go to the front of the ship and
- 27:06Speaker 9: do like the Titanic? You know this is you know,
- 27:09Speaker 9: have the music playing in the background.
- 27:12Speaker 4: Did you do that? Whole it was? I did?
- 27:15Speaker 5: I did?
- 27:16Speaker 9: There was some of that.
- 27:17Speaker 3: Really what happened is as soon as the clocks hit zero,
- 27:21Speaker 3: the three zeros, because I was I was full Cooper Cup,
- 27:24Speaker 3: you know I was when I saw three zeros.
- 27:26Speaker 4: I don't know if you guys saw that.
- 27:27Speaker 3: Inverew like, I'm not enjoying any of this until, you know,
- 27:30Speaker 3: I don't want to watch a series of four on
- 27:32Speaker 3: side kicks and touchdowns and we lose this somehow, I'm
- 27:36Speaker 3: going to wait for the three zeros. And the nice
- 27:39Speaker 3: thing about the Puncho really kind of doubles as a
- 27:41Speaker 3: cape and I did a few laps around the boat,
- 27:44Speaker 3: absolutely finding the various pockets of Seahawks fans who were
- 27:48Speaker 3: watching in various locations. It was a great time, honestly,
- 27:52Speaker 3: very memorable place to walk.
- 27:54Speaker 9: And win a super Bowl.
- 27:55Speaker 4: Yeah yeah.
- 27:56Speaker 6: And and and you've never played better shuffle board afterwards,
- 27:59Speaker 6: I mean, and you were just so suched on.
- 28:03Speaker 4: Yeah you better believe it.
- 28:04Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, win wins all around.
- 28:07Speaker 4: All I do is win on the season. When do
- 28:10Speaker 4: you start worrying about next season?
- 28:15Speaker 3: Probably kickoff, I would say, that's the one of the
- 28:19Speaker 3: great feelings of you know, this is only the second
- 28:22Speaker 3: time this has ever happened. This where for me is
- 28:25Speaker 3: the Seattle sports fan is you just get You get
- 28:27Speaker 3: to bask and and brag and enjoy the entirety of
- 28:32Speaker 3: the offseason. You're it, baby, You're the one you like
- 28:36Speaker 3: all the news cycle and uh, it's so hard to
- 28:39Speaker 3: win Super Bowl, So you're so glad.
- 28:41Speaker 4: I mean, think about the.
- 28:42Speaker 3: Vibes of Patriots fans right now, the ones you know,
- 28:45Speaker 3: or the way they're talking about it. It just makes
- 28:47Speaker 3: you real glad they want it. Because I see all
- 28:49Speaker 3: the preseason rankings and stuff of the Patriots and they're like,
- 28:52Speaker 3: I'll probably miss the playoffs and Drake will never go back.
- 28:55Speaker 3: It makes you really happy that you want it. So
- 28:58Speaker 3: I don't think I'll stress it for a while. The
- 29:00Speaker 3: weird thing is, I don't know, if you guys are
- 29:03Speaker 3: getting this vibes from the fans and the columns and
- 29:05Speaker 3: stuff like that, I feel like it's a Seattle sports fan.
- 29:10Speaker 3: You're almost going through an identity crisis right now because
- 29:14Speaker 3: now in the last you know, the Sexton won two
- 29:17Speaker 3: super Bowls and so you're like, wait, am I not
- 29:19Speaker 3: a loser anymore? Like for me, yeah, exactly, because the
- 29:31Speaker 3: whole identity of the Seattle sports fan has been loser. Like,
- 29:34Speaker 3: we lose in painful, awful, consistent ways. Even the super
- 29:40Speaker 3: Bowl that you did win previously almost got canceled out
- 29:43Speaker 3: by the most heartbreaking loss in Super Bowl history. And
- 29:47Speaker 3: you're like, wait a minute, are we do nice things
- 29:50Speaker 3: happen to us now? And I think, like the end
- 29:54Speaker 3: of my Wikipedia talks about how hard it is for
- 29:59Speaker 3: like how much I reference Seattle sports pain And I'm like,
- 30:02Speaker 3: am I gonna have to update with my Wikipedia?
- 30:04Speaker 4: Are things gonna?
- 30:05Speaker 5: I don't?
- 30:05Speaker 4: You can't update your own Wikipedia?
- 30:07Speaker 3: It's like, but you're just man, things might be really
- 30:09Speaker 3: turning around for old Dusty here, because you know, it's
- 30:15Speaker 3: a different it's a different identity, it's a different I'm
- 30:17Speaker 3: seeing the lens the you know, through different lenses. I'm
- 30:20Speaker 3: seeing the world through bluer eyes all of a sudden.
- 30:23Speaker 4: The first day of the rest of your life.
- 30:25Speaker 6: Dustin Nickerson, That's exactly it.
- 30:27Speaker 4: That's exactly it. Don't worry.
- 30:29Speaker 9: Baseball season right around the corner, and I'm guaranteed they're
- 30:31Speaker 9: gonna lose at least fifty times.
- 30:35Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll tell you.
- 30:36Speaker 3: And again, of course, listen, you root for the Mariners.
- 30:40Speaker 3: You believe good things can happen. But for me, as
- 30:43Speaker 3: a Seattle sports fan, it has not been a competition
- 30:46Speaker 3: of can the Mariners win, Can the Seahawks win? Can
- 30:49Speaker 3: the crack and win. It's always been a competition of
- 30:52Speaker 3: are we the biggest loser? And We've been neck and
- 30:57Speaker 3: neck with Minneapolis and Cleveland for a long time, and
- 31:03Speaker 3: I just don't think we are anymore. I just don't
- 31:06Speaker 3: think we can rightfully stare our Minneapolis friend who cheers
- 31:12Speaker 3: for you know, NFL, and and the NBA and then
- 31:15Speaker 3: and and and and and uh, you know MLB, and
- 31:18Speaker 3: look at them in the eyes and go we have
- 31:20Speaker 3: it worse for it. That's this Super Bowl means we
- 31:23Speaker 3: are not the biggest losers in America anymore.
- 31:27Speaker 6: You've suffered a long enough. It's time for you to
- 31:30Speaker 6: reap the harvest of you know, your suffering. So get ready, time,
- 31:35Speaker 6: Get ready, time.
- 31:36Speaker 4: That's right. Uh.
- 31:38Speaker 6: So, we're going to be in Arizona next week for
- 31:40Speaker 6: spring training. I understand you're also going to be in Arizona.
- 31:44Speaker 4: We're going to come to your Arizonia. Yeah, we're gonna
- 31:46Speaker 4: come to your show.
- 31:47Speaker 6: Are you going to come out to spring training with
- 31:49Speaker 6: us at any point during the week?
- 31:50Speaker 4: Will you have time?
- 31:52Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 31:52Speaker 3: No, I think I'm throwing out of first pitch at
- 31:54Speaker 3: one of them. Actually, I think it might be at
- 31:56Speaker 3: the first game.
- 31:57Speaker 5: I'm not sure about. Oh, but that sounds familiar to me.
- 32:00Speaker 6: Oh okay, all right, well yeah, maybe you know, let
- 32:04Speaker 6: your friends know all the cool stuffs that's happening in
- 32:06Speaker 6: your life.
- 32:07Speaker 3: He did, He told me, Well, okay, oh yeah, Astley
- 32:10Speaker 3: is the only one that texted me, so not true. Yeah,
- 32:18Speaker 3: I'll well, I'm sure we'll meet up in one way
- 32:20Speaker 3: or another. We'll find our way to an open bar
- 32:23Speaker 3: and some pretzels.
- 32:24Speaker 4: Okay, very good?
- 32:25Speaker 6: All right, Well, congratulations, you worked hard for this. You
- 32:29Speaker 6: are a super Bowl champion.
- 32:31Speaker 4: Again.
- 32:32Speaker 6: The embarrassment of riches in your life as a sports
- 32:35Speaker 6: fan these days, we.
- 32:37Speaker 3: Are no longer the biggest losers. We did it, guys,
- 32:40Speaker 3: we did it Seattle.
- 32:42Speaker 4: Thanks man, we'll see you next week.
- 32:45Speaker 3: Thanks appreciate you, Bud.
- 32:46Speaker 6: All right, Dustin Nickerson joining us right here on Chuck
- 32:49Speaker 6: and But boy, he really did get dark, didn't he?
- 32:51Speaker 6: Because I never ever viewed Seattle, even when I didn't
- 32:53Speaker 6: live in Seattle in that category.
- 32:57Speaker 9: Uh no, no me either. Yeah, it has it is
- 33:01Speaker 9: not a super easy place to be a fan of
- 33:04Speaker 9: the teams. You know, we've been let down plenty, Yes,
- 33:08Speaker 9: but I wouldn't classify it as the biggest loser ever
- 33:12Speaker 9: near it.
- 33:12Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't even go near it.
- 33:14Speaker 6: I don't even think it makes the board on Family Feud, like,
- 33:18Speaker 6: you know, top seven answers on the board, we're the
- 33:21Speaker 6: biggest you know, sports fans who've known nothing but pain. Yeah,
- 33:25Speaker 6: I don't even think it's top seven answers.
- 33:27Speaker 4: On the board.
- 33:28Speaker 7: What's not top seven answers on the board. I was
- 33:30Speaker 7: talking about.
- 33:31Speaker 6: Sports sports fans who've experienced the most pain and feel like,
- 33:36Speaker 6: you know, are we ever going to win? Like he's
- 33:39Speaker 6: Buck and I were just saying that we didn't think.
- 33:41Speaker 6: I never really put Seattle in that category maybe Mariner
- 33:44Speaker 6: fans once upon a time.
- 33:46Speaker 8: Yeah, but well, and if you think about before twenty thirteen,
- 33:50Speaker 8: I mean, we came close in the Skiva Bowl and
- 33:52Speaker 8: the ref's ruined it for us.
- 33:54Speaker 7: So it was like, oh, are people out to get us?
- 33:56Speaker 4: I get it. It's the painful way.
- 33:58Speaker 8: Yeah, with which and then we had something nice, and
- 34:01Speaker 8: then we almost had something nice twice, and then we
- 34:05Speaker 8: had the play that will be talked about for the
- 34:07Speaker 8: rest of history in the one yard line and it
- 34:09Speaker 8: was like, oh, no.
- 34:10Speaker 7: They'd you like to hurt us? Bah, they stole our basketball.
- 34:13Speaker 6: We are a target for pain, all right. Friday Ocho

- 35:47Speaker 6: Good to be a Pacific Northwesterner, all right. I do
- 35:51Speaker 6: want to mention this. I mentioned this not long ago.
- 35:54Speaker 6: But as the off season, as we're now kind of
- 35:56Speaker 6: getting into the off season, focusing on the off season
- 35:59Speaker 6: starting today, and I know we've already discussed it at times,
- 36:02Speaker 6: but today is sort of the all Right, this is
- 36:04Speaker 6: going to launch us into the NFL offseason. As I've mentioned,
- 36:08Speaker 6: many teams have already been here. I threw out a
- 36:11Speaker 6: trade proposal, maybe the trade proposal for the Ages, a
- 36:15Speaker 6: couple of weeks ago, and we didn't have a lot
- 36:17Speaker 6: of time to talk about it, and we don't have
- 36:19Speaker 6: a ton of time to talk about it now, but
- 36:21Speaker 6: I want to bring it back up since we are
- 36:23Speaker 6: kind of transitioning into the NFL off season. I don't
- 36:26Speaker 6: know about you two, but I get the impression from
- 36:29Speaker 6: Clint Kubiak's opening comments about Fernando Mendoza, where I mean,
- 36:35Speaker 6: obviously he didn't criticize the young man, but he didn't
- 36:37Speaker 6: exactly sound over the moon about the prospects of working
- 36:41Speaker 6: with Fernando Mendoza. Maybe that's just him tempering everybody's expectations
- 36:46Speaker 6: out there.
- 36:47Speaker 4: I'm wondering if there's.
- 36:48Speaker 6: Not a blockbuster of all blockbusters that is shaping up
- 36:53Speaker 6: right now here is the trade that I threw out
- 36:55Speaker 6: a couple of weeks ago, the Las Vegas Raiders trade the.
- 37:00Speaker 4: Number one overall pick in the.
- 37:02Speaker 6: Draft, which is really worth two, maybe even three first
- 37:06Speaker 6: rounders next year's number one as well Max Crosby, who
- 37:12Speaker 6: doesn't want to be a Raider, and then can move
- 37:15Speaker 6: a lot of salary by moving Max Crosby and young
- 37:19Speaker 6: tight end Brock Bowers all in the same package to
- 37:24Speaker 6: the Cincinnati Bengals for Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase. That's
- 37:31Speaker 6: my trade proposal, the biggest trade in the history of
- 37:34Speaker 6: the NFL, and I think it.
- 37:37Speaker 4: Makes a lot of sense for both teams. Really yep.
- 37:41Speaker 4: I mean I don't know.
- 37:43Speaker 9: It doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but
- 37:45Speaker 9: that's just because I don't know for sure. How good
- 37:47Speaker 9: are you with Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase on the Raiders.
- 37:50Speaker 9: They're long ways away from being good.
- 37:53Speaker 6: Well, it really helps to have one of the best
- 37:55Speaker 6: three quarterbacks in the NFL, Yeah, yeah, and one of
- 37:57Speaker 6: the best three wide receivers in the NFL.
- 38:00Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 38:00Speaker 9: Well, it's a boost in a good direction. It's just
- 38:02Speaker 9: now you don't.
- 38:02Speaker 6: Very much be your team with those two than you
- 38:04Speaker 6: are with Max Crosby and Brock Bauers.
- 38:07Speaker 9: Uh, yes, yes, but you yeah for sure. Okay, but
- 38:10Speaker 9: now you don't have any you don't have any draft capital,
- 38:12Speaker 9: add to you don't have any first round picks for
- 38:15Speaker 9: the next couple of years to add to the rest
- 38:17Speaker 9: of the holes you have on the team.
- 38:19Speaker 2: Given.
- 38:20Speaker 6: Oh, I didn't even mention two second rounders as well,
- 38:23Speaker 6: because I didn't put enough in there.
- 38:24Speaker 9: Two second rounders as well. Yeah, and I mean I guess,
- 38:27Speaker 9: I mean that's the going right Bengals.
- 38:29Speaker 6: Joe Burrow.
- 38:30Speaker 4: I mean I just looked at up what is the
- 38:31Speaker 4: trade value Joe Burrow?
- 38:32Speaker 6: Three first rounders, two second rounders, and a quality player
- 38:36Speaker 6: or two. That's what it costs to get just a
- 38:39Speaker 6: quarterback of that caliber. So, if anything, I'm under selling
- 38:43Speaker 6: what Burrow and Chase together would be worth in a package.
- 38:47Speaker 6: And and yet I do believe it's worth it to
- 38:50Speaker 6: get one of the top three quarterbacks in the National
- 38:53Speaker 6: Football League, get worse, one of the top five in
- 38:55Speaker 6: his prime. Now he's got to stay healthy, but in
- 38:58Speaker 6: his prime with his favorite target they come over. I
- 39:00Speaker 6: mean that changes the Raiders focus entirely. They that's one
- 39:05Speaker 6: last thing we gotta work. Two less things we gotta
- 39:07Speaker 6: worry about. We got two of the hardest things to
- 39:09Speaker 6: get in the in the league, a franchise quarterback in
- 39:12Speaker 6: his prime and a wide receiver number one who can
- 39:17Speaker 6: change games because of his playmaking bability.
- 39:20Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 39:20Speaker 9: I mean on the other side, for the Bengals, if
- 39:23Speaker 9: they were thinking, wow, it just you can't stay healthy,
- 39:26Speaker 9: We're not I mean, we're not playing. We're not even
- 39:28Speaker 9: getting in the playoffs right now. With them, maybe it's
- 39:31Speaker 9: time for an absolute rebuild. That is a giant hole
- 39:34Speaker 9: for and understandably so for giving up you know, a
- 39:37Speaker 9: perennial Pro Bowl type caliber two of them actually, so yeah,
- 39:42Speaker 9: I mean it makes sense if they're thinking, yep, let's
- 39:44Speaker 9: go ahead and tear this down or just basically get
- 39:46Speaker 9: rid of our best assets.
- 39:47Speaker 4: And rebuild this bad boy.
- 39:49Speaker 9: You get a couple of proven players in return in
- 39:52Speaker 9: Bowers and and Max Crosby for sure, and then you
- 39:55Speaker 9: can use the draft capital you could they could rebound quick.
- 39:57Speaker 9: I see it more for them than I would see
- 40:00Speaker 9: it for even the benefit of getting a top tier
- 40:03Speaker 9: quarterback like Burrow. Just to me, when I see the Raiders,
- 40:05Speaker 9: I think you're you're long ways away.
- 40:08Speaker 7: I feel like, yeah, when I look at that trade.
- 40:10Speaker 8: I would think it's more beneficial to the Bengals for sure,
- 40:12Speaker 8: because of all that draft capital and how quickly they
- 40:14Speaker 8: could either flip that around and make other moves or
- 40:18Speaker 8: or use it and build. I think I could see it.
- 40:22Speaker 6: Gives Cincinnati a lot more flexibility. Yeah, it doesn't strip
- 40:25Speaker 6: them of star power. You can build around a cheap
- 40:29Speaker 6: quarterback at number one overall, but making no mistake about it,
- 40:32Speaker 6: Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase go to the Raiders and
- 40:35Speaker 6: they are five games better.
- 40:36Speaker 7: I just think the Raiders are screw it up.
- 40:40Speaker 8: Although now they've got Clint Kubiak, so I think that
- 40:42Speaker 8: might he's going to be a lot smarter.
- 40:44Speaker 7: Not that Pete wasn't.
- 40:45Speaker 8: I'm just saying that it seems like the Raiders in
- 40:47Speaker 8: general have kind of been on, you know, downward trajectory
- 40:52Speaker 8: and not not making the best choices.
- 40:54Speaker 4: If they screw it up, if they screw it up,
- 40:55Speaker 4: they screw it up.
- 40:56Speaker 6: If everybody gets hurt in a you know, a horse
- 40:59Speaker 6: accidental gets hurting a horse accent.
- 41:01Speaker 7: Not another horse accent taking out a team.
- 41:03Speaker 6: But in terms of just making a trade, like that's
- 41:07Speaker 6: the val that the values match on that.
- 41:10Speaker 8: I think it's just a sticker shock for me. I
- 41:12Speaker 8: can't quite wrap my head around the whole thing, all
- 41:14Speaker 8: right
