• 0:00
  Speaker 1: But only when the mood is right.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: See, and I this whole time thought it was when
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: the moon is bright, so it moony.
• 0:05
  Speaker 3: I don't know, No, I don't know.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: You could be. I mean, you don't have a pajama
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: party in the middle of the day, do you.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Both of them make sense, And so now I'm like,
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know what it is anymore.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Close attention. Either way, we're going to do some talking
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: when the moon is bright and the mood is right.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Only when the moon is bright. Good morning to you.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: It is eight o'clock here on this Wednesday. If you
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: have just joined us, Oh, we're just having a ball
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: here on this hump day, so welcome in. It is
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Chuck Pallett, is Ashley Ryan, no Bucky Today. He'll be
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: going throughout the week. He is vacationing. He stayed down
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: there in Arizona with the family. So we'll see him
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: again on Monday, and I'm sure he'll be burnt to
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: a crisp.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: He's going to be toasty.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: I have watched individual freckles on that guy just burst
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: into flames. It looks painful. Yeah, ouch, yeah, And yet
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: he runs the risk every time he goes out.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Sometimes the risk is worth the punishment.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: That's his Norwegian blood. Very brave man. So let's talk
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: from pajama party. The NFL Combine week is here. We've
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: got agents meeting with executives and representing players and trade
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: talk going on here over the course of the next
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: couple of days. In John Schneider's very own words, this
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: NFL Combine really is not about the draft process as
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: much anymore as it is getting in the same room
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: with agents and executives and kind of getting your off
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: season plan together a little smooth and yeah, just kind
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: of getting the lay of the land, really. And so
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: he's there to meet with the agents of I'm sure
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: his six top free agents, or at least get him
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: on the horn and see where they stand with Ken
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Walker and Kobe Bryant and Rashid shah Heed and Josh
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Job and Rique Woolan and Boye Mafey not just a
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: good group of free agents, but also ones whose values
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: have skyrocketed because they're Super Bowl champions.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and when you say that list that long, I'm like,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be when he's like, oh, we want to
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: bring them all back, I'm like, that's.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: Gonna be real hard.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not going to bring them all back, and
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: so but we do need to figure out which ones
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: we do think that they'll bring back. And so that's
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: what we'll do in today's Pajama Party Preview, part two
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: right here on Chuck and Buck in the Mornings. And
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: so Greg Bell was on with us a little bit
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: earlier in the show, and we've kind of talked about
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: all of those guys that I just listed, with the
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: exception of really one and that was boy A Mafe,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: we haven't discussed a lot. So I asked Greg specifically
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: about him his free agency this year and how eager
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks may or may not be to bring him back.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Not very high.
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: I don't think he's the every down run stopping edge
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: guy that Mike McDonald really wants. Yeah, he can miss
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: the pass occasionally, but even his production mayor was very
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: high last year or so. But he's from drafted from
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: a different regime. Obviously, it's anyone beyond two years here
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: was but my seeing how McDonald plays defense and how
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: multiple he wants to be, especially with linebackers, Mike McDonald
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: would not have drafted boy in my opinion, and so
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: I don't think they're going to invest a big, big
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: effort and try to get him back now, Having said that,
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: Mafey's low production means he may not get too many
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: suitors in the open market anyway, and perhaps the Sears
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: could bring him back on a team friendly.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Deal minimum, so maybe a year or so at most.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: Having said that, he's an edgdresser, still young, and those
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: guys coming to premium, but he just doesn't seem production
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: wise and style wise, he's just not multiple enough.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: In my mind. It's how McDonald likes to play defense. Yeah,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: it feels to me. And you can hear the entire
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell conversation at ninety three to three KJR dot
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: com our podcast, which is up every single day if
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: you want to all the intel that he gave us
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: today at seven oh five, and he joined us every
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: day at seven oh five. So you know, maybe maybe
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: you just cut out the middle man and just join
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: us every day at seven o five.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: It seems like the smart move to me.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Of those six guys, this seems like the smart statement
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to make. I'll see if you agree or disagree, Ashley
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of the six guys I mentioned, Ken Walker, Rashik, Kobe Bryant,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Josh Joe, Riek Wollen, boy A Mafe, I didn't even
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: need to hear Greg kind of black and white for
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: us right there. He seems like the least likely to
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: return next year, boy Mafi.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think I would agree with you.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, he was a contributor for sure this year
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: on defense, but he wasn't the standout that he had
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: been a couple was it a couple of years ago?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Really, Well, he flashes. I don't know if he's ever
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: been a standout. He does flash.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: He's had some, yeah, standout moments, sure, for sure.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Didn't really see that this year, And I don't know.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, it makes me sad because I love to
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: especially two years ago I thought he was awesome.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, I think he's probably I mean, I
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: think he's gone. I'll I'll just make it the statement
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: that way. And again, you're not going to be able
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: to bring all these guys back. You're not going to
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: be able to run it back. And as I said before,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: their market value all has increased beyond what they probably
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: should be getting paid because they were part of a
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl championship. Somebody's out there, though, is going to
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: see that size, that strength, that explosiveness and think to themselves,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: we can turn that guy into a top pass rusher.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: And I don't think it's out of the question. I mean,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: that's the that's kind of the scary part of losing
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: a boy a Mafey is you know, sometimes players just
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: need more of an opportunity or a different scheme or
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: a different whisperer in their ear, and all of a sudden,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: you're like, oh man, that guy's a twelve second per
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: season guy. Where was that in a Seattle uniform? He
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: does have. I think that potential that tiars down the
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: he might be amongst the NFL sack leaders, and we
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: here in Seattle will be like, oh man, how do
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: we ever let that guy go? But I think it's
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: more likely that he's just a talented player that is
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: part of a group pass rush and yes, he can
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: get to the quarterback, but not consistently enough to miss him.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: So I love the what Greg said about Mike McDonald
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: was not here when they drafted him, and maybe he's
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: not the complete edge that he seeks. And so I
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: think of the six guys, he's the least likely that
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: will return. And yet I think We'll be surprised at
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: how much money somebody is willing to pay him because
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: there are a lot of executives, a lot of head coaches,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: and a lot of defensive coordinators in this league who
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: got he goes and they will see the talent that
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: boy Mafe has and says that guy, I can do
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: something good for him.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if he can make boatloads of money and not
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: demand boatloads of money from the Seahawks, than good.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well way to go. Yeah. I think that that's
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: one of those decisions that's going to be one of
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: the easier ones. I don't think that he will he
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: will be back next year. Now on the other end
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: of it, I would argue that I think the guy
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: that with the best chance of coming back on that
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: list is Kobe Bryant, because I think that his salary
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: will be measured. I don't think anybody looks at Kobe
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Bryant and says there's a giant ceiling still yet to reach.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: I think everybody recognizes him as what an excellent floor
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: that he has, and so I don't know if there's
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: going to be a bidding war on the open market
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: for a floor guy like Kobe Bryant. And so to me,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the value is with the person he's performed for. I
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: think the value is with Seattle. I think Mike McDonald
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: loves this guy, and I think Mike McDonald will pay
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: more than anybody else in the National Football League for
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant. So I think Kobe Bryant has the best
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: chance of those six of returning next season.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: And I would love to see him back.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: And honestly, yeah, if if there's no bidding war happening
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: for him out there, you know, that's sad for him,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: But that's Seattle's gain right there, and I'll take it.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: They'll be interest, that'll be a huge interest in him.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: I just don't think that it's going to be one
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: of those situations where, oh man, I can wait, do
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: you see what, well, you see what I can do
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: with this guy. I think there will be a well
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: he's really good. Well we could use him, and I
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: don't know if we can do anything better than what
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald. Yeah, I mean, he's going to be at
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: his best with Mike McDonald. Uh And and I think
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald doesn't want him to go, So I think
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: he's going to be back. I think of all those six.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: He's the one I'm most confident is going to be back.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: But who do you put second on your list? Yeah? Walker, Shaheed,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Job Woollen. What's your gut feel on who the Seahawks
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: will definitely try to get back into the fold?
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: I would. That is a tough one.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: I definitely understand what you're saying with Bryant, just because
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: of the cost and the fact that it really does
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: seem like Mike McDonald loves him, so it's almost like
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: a safe bet to go try to get him, lock
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: him up first, and then try to go after the
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: bigger fish.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Why not, as I they'll do it first. I just
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: think he's the most likely.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: The most likely Oh got it?
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Sorry, I thought you were asking me, Okay, so most
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: likely to say, yeah, I would, I'd I'd say next,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: most likely to stay. I'm gonna go with ken Walker.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: I think that they're gonna find a way to bring
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: him back.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Now. I'm feeling more that way with every day that passes,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and I still am going to side on ken Walker
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: leaving because I think he's going to have such a
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: vibrant market, and as I mentioned before in the show,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I the agent is certainly going to play a role here. Yeah,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: and the agent is going to say, we're not signing,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: We're going to get the free agent market. My client
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: is red hot right now. Everybody in the world saw
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: what he could do when you unleash him, like we
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: were waiting for you to do. I mean, Walker even
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: made statements earlier this year about Charbonnay, and he was
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: saying it tongue in cheek. I know their boys, I
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: know their buddies, but it was like he always snipers
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: my touchdowns. He made a statement about that earlier in
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: the year. Well, you know that the agent feels that
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: way too, and so he's gonna want his client hit
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the open market and let's see what we can do
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: out there. And so from that standpoint, I do believe
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: I'm siding on someone out there who's more desperate with
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: cap space is going to make him an offer that
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: John Schneider is just not going to match. But I'm
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: more at about fifty five percent feeling that way, where
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I think even two weeks ago it might have been
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: like seventy five even eighty five percent feeling that way.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: But now that I'm sort of seeing the landscape and
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: being disenchanted with the free agents that would be a
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: replacement for him. And I know that they're going to
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: get a running back in the draft, but can you
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: count on that running back in the draft in the
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: second or third round that's going to be a replacement
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: definitely out of the park for both Walker and Charboney
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: who's not going to be there. Yes, he'll add to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: the mix, but do you rely on that. I really
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: think they're going to make themselves uncomfortable financially to keep him,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: which I don't know if I would have said even
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: two weeks ago, much less a month ago. But I
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: still am going to side slightly with he's leaving more
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: than he's.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Staying, and that's fair.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: I just think with the Charboney situation is the main
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: reason why you can't go into this offseason not knowing
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: what Charboney's health is going to be coming back next
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: year and having nobody I mean, yeah, you've got Macintosh
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: and VELAs Jones and people like that, but you don't
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: have those that starting running back, that person that you
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: know that can take the ball twenty five thirty times
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: a game and do something with it. And I think
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: if you get rid of Walker, you're putting yourself in
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: a very, very scary situation.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: And as I said yesterday with Ken Walker, and now
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: I forgot what I was going to say. Oh crap,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Let's move on. Let's talk about Rashid Shahid, the wide receiver,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: kick returner, and this is another one. This might be
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: the guy that gives you the hometown discount. I think
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: when you've been in the league for a little while
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: and you've played with a perennial loser like he has
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: in New Orleans, when you get to an organization where
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: you feel, man, they do everything the right way. We
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: want a super Bowl. Yeah, I was a big part
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: of that. This might be your best candidate for he
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: could give you the super Bowl discount, the hometown discount.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: I don't want to rock this boat. Yeah, you're gonna
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: give me a pay raise, but they are they're pretty
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: projections out there, like a fourteen million dollar player. I
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: don't think that with Tory Horton here in the organization
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: that John Schneider's going to spend fourteen million dollars on
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Rashid Shahed, who was mostly impactful as a kick returner
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: this past season. But I mean, Hugh pointed it out
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: a lot, not really even being incorporated much into the
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: passing attack. He was most effective as a kick returner,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: then probably a running back, getting jet sweeps running backs,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: and then probably as a receiver. Tory Horton was more
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: effective in the passing game than what Rashid Shahed was,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: and Horton can return kicks. I do think they want
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: him back. I don't know if I go as far
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: as Greg Bell where he thought it was sort of
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion it was going to be the first
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: thing they got done this offseason. But I just get
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: the impression that if that's the market value for him,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: there's no way John Schneider's going fourteen million dollars a
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: year when he's got a Tory Horton in the state.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: So I'm about fifty to fifty on Shiheed right now.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: And whether or not.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: He returns, Yeah, and I would lean probably fifty five
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: percent that I think he'd come back, just because he
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: was such a difference maker. So in especially in the playoffs,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: and you think about those or was it the final
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: game of the which one did he run the ope? Oh,
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: that was the first game of the playoffs, so against
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: the forty nine ers, right where he ran the opening
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: kickoff back.
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I just.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Think you look at the explosiveness that he has, and
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: I know that Tory Horton has those things too, but
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Tory Horton obviously didn't stay healthy this year, so you
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: don't really know with how young he is, how.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: Durable he will be.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: And Rashid s she Heat has proven that he can
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: stay in this league for a long time.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: So I would love to see him back.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: I'd love to see him back. It's just you got
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: to make the decision on what the price point is. Yeah,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: and I don't think it's going to be what the
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: market is suggesting, or at least the websites that are
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: trying to represent the market are suggesting. If it's that
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: I have a feeling in another uniform, I do think
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Riek Wolan will be gone. I think he falls into
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the Mafey category. I think somebody's gonna look at that athleticism,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: that length, that explosiveness, and they're going to think to themselves,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: give me that guy, let me coach him up, and
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: so I think he's gonna end up going for more.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: I would put him right next to mafe on the
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: group in terms of the most likely to leave and
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: then that leaves Josh Job, who you hate to lose
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: two corners in the same offseason, And so if you
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: lost Woolan, does that incentivize you to pay a little
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: bit more to keep Job. I think Job falls in
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: the Bryant category. I think that executives are going to
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: look at him and say, I don't know if he's
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: going to be any better than what he is with
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald. And I think in Seattle's case, I think
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: they value They're gonna end up valuing him more than
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: anybody else. But we've seen plenty of cornerbacks that were
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: part of the legion to boom that when they Maxwell
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: comes to mind when they hit free agency or like
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: oh Sticker shock, what, Yeah, how did that happen? You're
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: paying that much for that guy's like the third best
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: corner on the team. Yeah, And so maybe Job ends
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: up falling into that category. We shall see. But uh yeah.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, you recap those six names, and the only
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: one I feel great about is Kobe Bryant being back.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Next and I think that's a fair assessment.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: And the only one that I feel like for sure
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: is gone is Boye Mafe And I'm sliding a little
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: bit more toward Walker staying, and I'm sliding a little
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: bit more toward Shaheed leaving h And I think Woolan's gone,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: and I think that because Woollan's gone, job will end
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: up being back. I think the Seahawks might make the
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: best offer there. But we shall see. I mean, they've
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: got cap space, they obviously have relationships. They want to
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: run it back with as many of them as possible.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: But if they get half of those guys back, I'd
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: be I'd be I wouldn't say surprised, but I wouldn't
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: expect any more than three of those six guys to
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: be back in sea uniforms.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they'd bring them all back any
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: by any means. I don't think they have really the
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: opportunity to do that. I think they will get out
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: bid on a couple of them. But it is interesting
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: because the Reek Woolen thing. I was one hundred percent
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: convinced he would be gone after this year a month
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: and a half ago.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Now I am leaning more towards I.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Could see him staying because of after his big screw
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: up against the Rams, it seems like maybe he figured
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: it out. I mean his teammates stepped up and got
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: mad at him, and maybe I don't know. I just
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I would be I would love to be a fly
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: on the wall in the conversations between him and McDonald
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: and see really how that's going, because I also don't
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: know that McDonald. Well, I know McDonald's not going to
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: put up with any of the attitude, but I wonder
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: if he actually got the message.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: I doubt it, especially when you make more money. I'm
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: gonna let him be somebody else's concern and if he
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: unleashes all of that ability with another, so be it. Yeah,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: but I'm gonna let somebody else roll the dice on that.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: If I am the Seahawks, I mean, I take it
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: back for a song. But I have a feeling his salary,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: he and Maffey were both going to come March tenth, eleventh, twelfth.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: We're going to be surprised at how willing, how much
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: money a team is willing to pay for those two
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: guys to try to tap into that high sealing potential
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: that they have. And so with three defensive backs out
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: of the six, I mean obviously another position as we
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: get ready for the Pajama Party that John Schneider might
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: be paying attention to is going to be that cornerback position.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: And right now the Seahawks have the last pick in
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: the first round. I don't suspect that they'll end up
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: with the last pick in the first round. I think
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: they'll move out of that spot and try to pick
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: up another Day two pick and so second rounders. I mean,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: it's pretty clear cut. To get too far ahead of
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: the draft miss schedule here, but it's pretty clear cut.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: I mean I looked at like twelve different draft websites,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: and almost all of them have the three top guys
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: as Delaney from LSU, who's been described as very instinctive,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: which you love in a corner, Jermad McCoy out of
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Tennessee the main word and his word cloud is versatile,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: and then Avian Terrell from Clemson and skilled, slash fluid
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: are the attributes that are usually given to him. Those
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: guys are all expected to go in the first round
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: and might be off the board. So the two guys
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: that you might want to check out if I were
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: to circle, if you really are looking for a couple
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: of guys, like I gave you running backs yesterday, that
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: you might want to check out that maybe the Seahawks
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: entertain early in the second round or even with that
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: thirty second pick if they have a cornerback hole. Colton
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Hood out of Tennessee, known for strength the position, and
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: then Brandon Cease out of South Carolina spelled cisse and
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: he is the fastest of the six or the five
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: that I've mentioned, known for his speed. But I have
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: seen a lot of mocks putting Cease on the Seahawks,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: on the Seashawks on the Seahawks, yeah, for their mock draft.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: So I'm already seeing a little bit of a trend
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: in that direction. But I'm just trying to play the
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: what guys right now are kind of falling in that
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: late first, early second category. And I've never seen such
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: consistent ratings at a position that I'm seeing right now
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: at these cornerbacks. Those three seem to be a cut above.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: They're on the top shelf. And then Hood and Cease
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: seem to be the only two guys that are getting
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: mentioned in that thirty to forty five range that you
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: might be interested in if you're wanting to take a
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: cornerback with your first pick. So a couple guys maybe
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: to circle think about if you, in fact do watch
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: the Pajama Party this weekend. Alright, coming up next on
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: our program in case you missed it. Last week we
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: were at spring training. We had all sorts of great interviews.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: I'm replaying one per day this week, or at least
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: a chunk of one of our interviews from last week
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: per day and just picking the very best ones. And
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: so we're gonna hear from Brian Wu next. Sports Radio
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: ninety three point three KJRFM. Head out to light Up
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Resort Casino. And you know Taylor Dane. She's playing a
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: concert tomorrow night at the Orca Ballroom. Get tickets now
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: through ticket Master. And yes, I know there are more
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: details that I need to get to, but don't rush me.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: I made that mistake before. By the way, our sales
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: guy Rich, he sent me some a trivia question to ask,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: will this help talk about the I want to hear
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: it event? And yeah, and then yesterday he got his
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: feelings hurt. His butt was hurt because I didn't use
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: the trivia question and it's inaccurate.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Oh well, let's see if I know the wrong answer.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: All, let's say, let's play and I'm going to read
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: a word for word, Hey, Bucky, Yeah, I have a
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: baseball trivia question for you. Okay, which number is higher
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: the number of people that attended a Major League Baseball
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: game last year or the number of albums sold by
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Taylor Dane.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: I'm going to go with the number of albums sold
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: by Taylor Danes.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Yes, the answer is seventy five million albums sold last year.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: Only seventy one million fans went to baseball.
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, Taylor, she's a legacy.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, well, okay, maybe it's not inaccurate because I read
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: it at first as he was saying, Taylor Dane sold
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: seventy five million albums last year, and that would be yeah,
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: that did not happen. No, but he's saying last year
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: attendance versus all time Taylor Dane album sold. She's a
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: queen seventy five.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: She is a queen. Get her a crown.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Yep. So maybe it wasn't inaccurate.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: She's going to be it to layl up tomorrow. She's
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: going to be singing all her hits big lips.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: Oh he's got a lot of hits too. Boy. I'm
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: telling you what, honey, I'll be your shelter and I
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: just I'll be the one to take it through the night.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: She always had like really big lips.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Like naturally yeah, and now they're not naturally well.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: And so I'm like, I wonder how big, But I'm
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: she can still rocket.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Good for her, Yes she can. With every beat of
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: her heart, she can with em. All right, Well, good morning.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: It is Chuck and Ashley with you here on Chuck
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: and Buck in the Morning, saying, last week we were
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: at spring training, marin her spring training. Nobody does it better, uh,
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: And we had all sorts of great interviews. It's hard
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: to just pick one the following week, but I think
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: it's worth replying some stuff that maybe you did miss
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: during our award winning spring training coverage, including our conversation
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: with Brian Wu, who, let's face it, was the best
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: pitcher on the team a year ago, certainly the best
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: starting pitcher on the team a year ago. And yet
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: as we're closing in on that playoff run, what happens
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Brian Wu gets injured and it was really tough to see,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: was it not like that look on his face? And
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: then he tried to throw a couple like warm ups
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: to cal and he was just kind of flopped them.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: In there and you just feared the worst, and we
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: found out that, in fact, he was injured to the
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: degree we didn't know what his availability was going to
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: be in the playoffs, which ended up being next to nothing.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: He didn't even pitch until Game seven of the American
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: League Championship Series, and it was in relief. I mean,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: we'd almost made it to the World Series and our
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: best starting pitcher last year didn't even get to start
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: in a game in the postseason. So I'll pick up
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: the conversation with Brian wu. It was twenty minutes long
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: that we had with him last week, but I asked
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: him about that moment when he knew that he was
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: hurt and didn't know if he'd be available for the playoffs.
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it's frustrating. Obviously, injuries never fun, and
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: then to come at a time like that, it was
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: super unfortunate. But you know, you work with the hand
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: that you're dealt, and you know, I put a lot
• 25:32
  Speaker 6: of trust and faith in our and our training staff,
• 25:36
  Speaker 6: and you know, it was unfortunate. Obviously wouldn't have wanted
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: to go that way, but yeah, you got a deal
• 25:45
  Speaker 6: to hand, your Dealton did our best to get back,
• 25:47
  Speaker 6: and it was definitely, uh, a motivational point going into
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: the off season of you know, one you want to
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: get back into that spot, but two you want to
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: you know, contribute the way that that you know how so, yeah,
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: you learned from it. It stinks, but luckily we've got
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: a bunch of other guys that are pretty good at
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: at the same thing, so makes that part a little
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: bit easier.
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah, well, frustrating for everybody, including us, you know, just
• 26:19
  Speaker 7: as fans getting to watch it, especially after the year
• 26:21
  Speaker 7: that you had. But I mean that was a spectacular year.
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: I mean that was Yeah, I mean it was it
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: was I mean, was there something different? Did something click
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: last year? I mean it's not like you worked good
• 26:33
  Speaker 7: before that, but last year was way more of a
• 26:35
  Speaker 7: just kind of every single time you went out there,
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: you're going six innings and absolutely shoving. Was there anything
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: that clicked for you last year?
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: No?
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: I think it's just like I always talked about it,
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: it's just a you know, cumultive day by day, just
• 26:48
  Speaker 6: trying to be as consistent as I can be, trying
• 26:51
  Speaker 6: to learn and get better using the time that we
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: have with each other, with you know, with the pitchers
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: of the catchers, whoever it is, it's building relationships with
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: the guys in the locker room, and you know, it's
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: a it's a holistic approach of how can I just
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: get a little bit better each day? I think you
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: try to take it in huge chunks it you know,
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: it's it's not gonna it's not gonna pan out the
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: way that you wanted it to. So for me, I've
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: just learned that little steps, consistency, getting a little bit
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: better every day, that's all it really is. So if
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: I can, you know, bring that approach into every day
• 27:29
  Speaker 6: and try to get a little bit better every day,
• 27:31
  Speaker 6: and then when it's time for me to go take
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: the ball, it's just you know, compete the best way
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: that I know how. That's all you can really do.
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: So I think, yeah, last year was just a kind
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: of a culmination of that of just consistency and you know,
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: doing my job every fifth day.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: Brian, who is with us ready around chugging Buck Sports
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: Radio ninety three point three kJ R f M And uh,
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: I know in talking to you in the past, you
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: just said that message just just you know, sarpening things
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: always in the off season, Bryce probably came back.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: With a gyro ball this year, and you know, Logan
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: probably has a you know, some sort of an aquarium
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: that he's carrying around to try to help his arm flexibility.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: But you kind of you just kind of fine tune
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: always in the off season. So I'm assuming that's what
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: you stayed with. You just rode that horse again this year.
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: Yep, pretty much. Yeah, No, no new toys, just kind
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: of just raising the floor of everything, just you know,
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: if everything can be just a little bit better every day.
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: And yeah, yeah, same same five pitches for me, same stuff. Obviously,
• 28:37
  Speaker 6: you're always always looking for ways to get better, but
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: not not really reinventing the wheel.
• 28:43
  Speaker 7: Yeah, motivating wise or motivation wise, I mean getting to
• 28:47
  Speaker 7: where you guys got and ultimately we already went over
• 28:50
  Speaker 7: the kind of the frustrating part of not being able
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: to be a big part of the postseason, but you
• 28:54
  Speaker 7: still know how much you contributed to get to that point.
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: I mean with the regular season that you had. So yeah,
• 29:01
  Speaker 7: still as a squad come up short where you want
• 29:03
  Speaker 7: to be. So how motivated was that? As it were
• 29:06
  Speaker 7: one of those all right, that's the next step and
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: then we just build on that for this year.
• 29:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, exactly. I think, you know, everybody in that locker
• 29:16
  Speaker 6: room felt how how Game seven felt in Toronto, being
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: uh in that clubhouse and on the bus ride, on
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: the on the plane home, like you could feel obviously
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: how much it meant to those guys, and yeah, you
• 29:34
  Speaker 6: kind of just trying to bottle that up and take
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: that into the off season, take to the next season. Obviously,
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: it's it's not really a situation of like, all right,
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: we're just gonna get back to that point and and win,
• 29:46
  Speaker 6: like you gotta re you know, you got to earn
• 29:49
  Speaker 6: that again starting in camp, and we we know what
• 29:53
  Speaker 6: it takes now we know, you know a little bit
• 29:56
  Speaker 6: more about our group as a whole, and you know
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: what it takes to get through a whole season and
• 30:03
  Speaker 6: then what it takes to you know, climb your way
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: through the postseason. And it was definitely good experience for everybody,
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: especially just having a pretty young group. But isn't super
• 30:14
  Speaker 6: experience in terms of you know, playoff experience, but yeah,
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: it was. You know, you try to take that as
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: a positive in terms of the learning experience, but you
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: also you bottle up that that motivation of how much
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: that Game seven Stone.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Brian Wu with us at spring training last week. That's
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: five minutes out of a twenty minute conversation. I also
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: used him as the person that ranked his fellow pitchers
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: for how good of fathers they were with their new babies.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: And I used him as the ranker of who was
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: the most romantic in terms of their marriage proposals this
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: weekend because there are a couple of guys in the
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: rotation that did that as well. Yeah. So yeah, as
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of good stuff. I mean, we couldn't play
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: it all for you back here today, but you got
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: a taste of it. And if you want the if
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: you want the whole enchilada, you can find it at
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: ninety three three KJR dot com as part of our podcast.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: And he was also while we were down there, they
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: were they had picture day. So he's the guy that
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: I saw modeling the new Sunday uniform, the Steelhead throwback uniform. Yeah,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: they did kind of adjust it a little bit. It's
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: sharp looking.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: Oh is it?
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: It's really sharp? Okay, a good looking uniform. Yeah.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: I like that choice.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: I do too. I think it's not I mean, I
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: like the Sunday one before. I've been hearing a lot
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: of people that hated that.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: I don't understand that.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: I don't either. Yeah, so I would like to keep
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: both of them, frankly in the rotation and get rid
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: of those awful green things and even the blue things
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: that look tattered. They don't even look.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: New city connect you're talking about.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: No, No, I like the city, the Navy blue and
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: the green. Our road uniforms blow, and all of our
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: home ones are fantastic. Yeah.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: I like all of our uniforms. But I also biased,
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: and I'm okay with that.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, well, I would like for a uniform overhaul
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: here in Seattle, and I would like to discuss that
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: next Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. We are
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: gonna chat with Al Koniski nine thirty today, But I
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: want to talk about uniforms because there are two things
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: that are abundantly clear, okay, abundantly clear about our uniform
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: situation here in Seattle. Number one, both fan bases, Seahawks
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: and Mariners have made their affinity for a certain uniform universally,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: if not maybe not universally. It's like an eighty five
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: percent rate what the fan base wants. Seahawk fans want
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: the throwback blues now modernized, so they don't it doesn't
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: look like they're just loose on a hangar like they
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: were on Steve Largent and Jim Zorn. Now we've modernized them,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: we've tailored them, and they just look so sharp. I mean,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: even the national broadcast suggests that it's the best uniform
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: out there and they can't get enough of it. And
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: so here for helmet too. Yeah, yeah, and I even
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: want to see the old home white one as well,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: to bring that back too.
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: With the silver pants. Let's go.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: I mean like seventy five I'll bet you seventy five
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: eighty percent of Sea Hawk fans want that uniform combination.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: So we have decided as a community, as a fan base,
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: that's the uniform that we want, and yet we don't
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: have it right. The other thing that we have decided,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: and this isn't quite as clear cut, but I can
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: just tell you by the time we got to the
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: postseason last year with the Mariners, the number of the
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: trident looking uniforms and jackets and that old merchandise line
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: was dominating in the stands and it hadn't even been
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: brought back all that long ago. Whoever was buying anything
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: new of the Mariners was buying the blue and yellow,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: classic blue, classic yellow with the Trident insignia. That's what
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: the jack that are being bought and right now at
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: the stores. And when I was down in spring training,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: everybody that was in attendance, they're wearing that sort of
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: color combination. We got to go back to that. It
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: looks outstanding. The old Seattle Mariner triedent blue and yellow
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: uniforms modernized.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: Yes, because the City Connects kind of you could go off.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: That playing with that, Yeah, But that black pants, without question,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: that's what the fan base is gravitating towards. So that's
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: the first thing that I know. Both fan bases have
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: figured out the uniforms that they want on a regular basis,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: and still have your City connect and your other alternate
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: uniforms and stuff like that, but the primary uniforms need
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: to be the modernized throwbacks, the Trident blue and yellow
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: for the Mariners and the Seahawks blue and silver of
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: the gym Zorn days. Yeah.
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: I actually completely agree.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: And it's interesting too because the Mariners are due for
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: a new City connect uniform, right, Yes, so you could
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: get rid of the one that's more of the classic colors,
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: move that towards your full uniform. You can have that
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: cream and yellow and blue that you had on Sundays.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: There's your kind of basis to start your new uniforms.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: And then you could actually make your city connect more
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: of the navy, blue, teal, silver kind of that. So
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: that would be like the different one from going back
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: to the classic colors.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: The other thing that I know and that I've learned
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: and having these conversations with various people, is how difficult
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: the leagues make it to change your uniforms, Like the long,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: tedious process. It's like a year's that's annoying. Yeah, and
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: I don't understand why that. I get why they don't
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: they have to set like you have to have these
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: for a certain amount of time. Yeah, but the moment
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: that you ellipse that amount of time, you should be
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: able to say, we want to change them this offseason,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: and you should be able to do that.
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: And here's our design.
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know why there would be so much red
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: tape to get to a uniform that your fan base
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: is yearning for.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: Right, it's just more money. They're all gonna go out
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: and buy more stuff.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: So apparently they're not even close the Mariners to the
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: stage of overhauling the entire uniform concept. I had a
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: friend of mine in Kansas City five years ago that
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: told me he was sick of the Mariners' uniforms.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: Really in the Navy blue yeah, yeaheah, the basic one.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not the Sunday one, not the City connect, but
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: the basic one. He was sick of the And and
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: here we are five years ago and we not only
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: still have them, apparently there's no end in sight to
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: when we can get rid of them, because the process
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: hasn't even been started to try to overhaul the uniforms.
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: But man, it just seems to me like we we
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: have spoken, The fan base is spoken. These are this
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: is what we want. The large majority of us four
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: out of five people want the throwback Seahawk uniforms and
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: the Trident blue and yellow baseball uniform as our base combination.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: And yet we can't get their organizationally because of all
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: the red tape that has been laid out in front
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: of both teams.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's annoying. I wouldn't I wouldn't anticipate that it
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: would have taken that long. I would have thought it
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: would have it could just be hey, we'd like to
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: change our uniforms, here's our ideas, and then who's going
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: to say no, because again, you're just selling more merchandise exactly.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: So it makes no sense why anyone will shut it down.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: If a team wanted to change the uniform every I mean,
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: not every year, that would be a ridiculous.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: I don't want to change it every year every five years.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: I think, okay, you should. If you want to do
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: an update or change something, go for it.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: I get why they have to put a time amount
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: on it, Yeah, but I'm sure we've ellipsed whatever time
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: amount that is. I would because we've had these uniforms
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: since I got here. Yeah, and this is my eleventh year. Yeah,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, it can't be more than five or ten years.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: The Tigers are getting new uniforms this year, so I mean,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: so I would think that we've that time has been
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: wiped away. Yeah, and we should at least be starting
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: the process toward getting the uniforms we actually won our
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: baseball team and the players want to wear them too.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're just like them.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: It's just such a sharper. Look, come on, let's get
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: on that all right. Coming up next on the radio program.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: That's one situation, and there are situations that we face
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: in life, and then there are situations that we face
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: in life. And the NFL, it's got a lot of
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: situations going on right now. Sports Radio ninety three point
