• 2:48

• 2:52
  Speaker 1: let them soak away their murderous intent. This is the
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: day to do things that you've never done before. And
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I'll tell a homicidal maniac that, deep down you really care,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: all Right.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: The sad thing is there's a lot of women up
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: that they're like, I'm going to write to a prison today.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: True, I'm kidding. Don't do that.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, my wife was comedic material, or at least I
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: thought it was good.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Ahead of the curve. I did not recognize that it
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: was Friday thirteenth, though you just mentioned it. Obviously. I
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: did know that it was Valentine's Day because we switched.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: If you remember Friday the thirteenth, then you don't remember
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Valentine's Day.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Ye, my my wife, she must have been on to
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: the connection between the two because we we exchange our
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Valentine tried to kill.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: You last night. No again, she gave me a new
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: gun safe.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: So if that doesn't kind of go to the homicidal
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, it's like so a nice little
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: fingerprint one, you know, finger on it opens up.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Boom, there we go. We're ready.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: In case something happens on Friday the thirteenth. I'm prepared
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: because of my early Valentine's Day gift.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: See what an't you lucky? See what I would love
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: for Kate to do to celebrate this holiday is that
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: because we leave for Phoenix, yes tomorrow, so we're gonna
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: leave in the middle of alent So you have just
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: the morning, you know, to do Valentine's Day with your wife.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I think it would be hilarious if you woke up
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: and she was trying to smother you with a pillow
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: with a hockey mask on while wearing lingerie. Oh wow,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: that is not a good idea. Do it?
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: She could actually achieve said goal. Be hilarious.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Oh man, sharing it now and I'm never getting that
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: out of my.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Talk about getting in the mood of things that get
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: you in the mood.

  Speaker 2: And then she'll feed you some chocolates right before she
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: chokes you.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Right before you pass out. Here's some chocolate she could do.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: That's chocolate on the underside of the pillow that she
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: smothering me with.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: And she cuts up slices with a machetti but like

• 5:07
  Speaker 1: chops it with the machete. Yeah.

• 6:55
  Speaker 1: that is romance at the exact same time. See what
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: you can do to make it the best ever? All right, Well,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: what a week we've had. It's been incredible. I mean,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: it actually seems like a long time ago that the
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Seahawks won the Super Bowl. I don't know why that is.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: It was this Sunday. I was putting together the ohow
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: this morning, and I'm like, oh, that was this week. Yeah,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: but Sunday the super Bowl title, and we've spent a
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: week celebrating it in various ways. For us that's talking
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: about it, and of course the parade that took place
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday. I mean, just what an accomplishment. What a week,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: What a feel good week it has been here in Seattle.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: And today, as we have our Friday show, we no
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: longer have football Fridays, and that's good because today is
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: sort of the transition away kind of Friday from the
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: football season into some of the other things that we've
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: loved that have felt neglected here recently, including man, we
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: haven't really talked much at all about mariners, reporting, pitchers
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and catchers, all the things that go with the excitement
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: of that. But never you fear, because on Monday, our
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: spring training coverage does begin right here on Chuck and Buck.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I know that seems crazy, but this is the way
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: we do it every year, and it just so happened
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: that this year our football team played the last game
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: of the year, and so the gap between spring training
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: and the end of the football season overlapped for us
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: here in Seattle, and so we'll start our coverage on Monday.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: And so this on this Friday, since we're going to
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: talk so much baseball next week, is sort of our
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: last opportunity to our first opportunity, depends on how you
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: look at it, to kind of get the off season
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: rolling for the Seahawks. I mean, every other NFL city
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: started this process weeks ago, started talking about the big
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: things they got to get accomplished. And so today with
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell at seven oh five, we'll start talking about
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the offseason with him, and I think we should do
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: this to get the show started here on this Friday morning.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Let the off season begin. And there are a number
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: of players on this team that we deem valuable. How
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: valuable John Schneider and Mike McDonald are going to deem
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: them that remains to be seen. But this is a
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: pretty good list of players, and I'm sure we'd like
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: to keep some of them. Ken Walker, Rashid, Shaheed boy A, Mafe,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Josh Jones, Kobe Bryant, Riek Woollen, Josh Job. They are
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: all free agents heading into this off season, and some
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: of them are going to say goodbye. And part of
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: the reason they're going to say goodbye is because, whether
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: or not it's conscious or subconscious, teams that play on
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions tend to have their value go up
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: right before free agency begins. And so John and Mike
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: have to make smart financial decisions. And like I said,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: some will stay and some will go during the course
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: of this process, and so we'll we're about we're less
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: than a month from the free agency frenzy, and the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: conversations pretty much are already underway. Yeah, the I mean,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the the entire off season. I mean, I don't know
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: for sure if there ever is a day off. Maybe
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: it looked like John took the day of the parade
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: off from maybe doing you know, doing any work per se.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: But yeah, the next day, you know that they're on
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: the horn trying to figure out how they're going to
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: be able to fit all this stuff under the cap.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: And they're not gonna be able to fit everything. They're
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: not going to be able to sign everybody. So now
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: it's the picking and choosing what's your priority and what
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: you like out there that are going to become fruits
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: you can pick off of other rosters free agency wise.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: And so it's going to be an interesting one because
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: you know, you know, the guys on the team, and
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: I'm sure everybody in that in that front office is.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Like, we can get back here and do this thing again.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: But you're gonna have to make the You're gonna be
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: lost them all. You're feeling that.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: Way, Yeah, you're gonna have to You're gonna have to
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: make the right decisions. I mean, you're gonna those those
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: are holes, you know, you're you know, losing a couple
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: of guys out of that defensive backfield. You know, a
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: few guys out of the defensive backfield is not something
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: that's going to be easy to replace. So I would
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: imagine they're going to try to bring somebody back and
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: then fill in the holes that are left with the
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: other couple guys leaving. And yeah, the backfield, the running
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: backfield is going to be an interesting one. How they
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: do that with Ken Walker because you're sure his price
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: has gone up after winning the MVP.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Well, I'll say this, I mean, I would think that
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: they would like to try to run it back. They
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: will bring them all back at our price. I think
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: they like nothing more than for all seven of those
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: guys that I mentioned say we will take whatever you
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: pay us so that we can keep this team together.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's the ideal scenario, but we know that's
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: not going to happen. This is the opportunity for most
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: of these guys to get the biggest contract that they're
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: ever going to have, and money is what's going to
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: talk during this period, no matter how good a feeling
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: that they have about the super Bowl. And I'll say
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: this about John Schneider, he knows that this is a business.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: He will not get sentimental about any of these players.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: If he brings anybody back, it's gonna be back on
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: a deal that is right for this team's projections and
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: this team's goals of winning a championship again this year.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: So he not gonna give any extra He's not gonna
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: pay some sentimental tax to ken Walker. Ken Walker wants
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: to come back. Seahawks. I know would like to have
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: him back, but they're going to bring him back at
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: his price, and it might end up actually cost me
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: a ken Walker because this is a business at the
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: end of the day.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Well yeah, and especially with a running back because of
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: the risk of injury, and especially with ken Walker who's
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: already dealt with injuries. I mean, who knows how long
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: any NFL career will last, but it seems like it's
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: particularly hard with a running back. But it is interesting
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: because I do feel like this is the time of year,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: especially it's even worse this year because of winning the
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl, where I get I'm very where I've become
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: very naive and I'm like, I don't know, I think
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: these guys just really like playing for the Seahawks, so
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: they'll probably make it work.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: And it's like that's not gonna happen.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: But you do feel it's even heightened after coming off
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: a Super Bowl win, like you sometimes start to think, oh, yeah,
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: see these guys know what they're building. I mean, after
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: the super Bowl, Cooper Cut put out on Twitter how
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: it started, how it's going, And it started with Jaron
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Reid sending him a DM on Instagram saying, hey man,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: you got to come up to Seattle.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: We're building something special here.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: And then that how it ended was them hugging after
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: winning the Super Bowl, and so you start to think like, well, yeah,
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: these players are all bought in, so this will happen.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, Yeah, they're all coming back. Cooper Cup's going
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: to probably take less. Now, yeah, where else are they
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: going to go? That's gonna be as great. Sam Darnold
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: will just go in and say I'll just play for
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: a team jacket, No, thirty three million dollars right there
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: we go, Yeah, yeah, that'd be nice. Look it's interesting,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I don't I mean, you can go to any website
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: and you can see the projections and financials, and I'm
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: not here to tell you that those are right or
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: that that they're wrong. I don't know. I have my
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: own opinions about them and what looks high and what
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: looks low. But you can pick out any website, but
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to use bo track. That's one that
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are familiar with. I mean, right now,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: they have Ken Walker projected to make nine million dollars
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: on the free agent market. Just to put that in perspective,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: that's per year, per year. Just put it in perspective.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: That's lower than what they think Josh job is going
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: to get. That's lower than what they That's almost half
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: of what they think Kobe Bryant's going to get. What
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: it's lower than what they think Boye Mafe is going
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: to get. And it's nearly half of what they think
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Rashid Shaheed's going to be worth on the free agent market.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: I don't buy any of that, but I'm just don't
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: kill the messenger. That's just what I am reporting. And
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: obviously that's a big statement about the running back position
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: and how it is still valued because there's a belief
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: that if we have the right system and the right
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: offensive line and the right quarterback, that they're there are
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: plenty of guys we can plug into the right running
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: back position and we can still have a successful running game.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: So even though the running back's power has gotten increased
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: here as of late, it still has not recovered completely
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: like it was when I was a kid, and the
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: feeling was that was the most important position that you
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: would get. Yeah, maybe maybe outside of quarterback. You gotta
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: have that guy that touches the ball thirty times a game. Well,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: we don't have running backs to touch the ball thirty
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: times a game anymore. And they also aren't the highest
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: paid guys on the team. In most cases, they are
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: underpaid nearly across the board. But I will say this
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: if this is accurate. I mean, based on the conversation
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: we had yesterday in the roundtable, as much as I'd
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: like Rashid Shaheed and Ken Walker back, man, I'm that's
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: a no brainer to me. Rashid Shaheed at fourteen million
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: dollars versus Ken Walker coming off that postseason at nine
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: million dollars a year, I'm taking Walker over Rashid Shaheed
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: and that deal all day long, especially based on the
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: fact that Tory Horton is really the take the top
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: off the defense deep threat that they think he's going
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: to be. Why do you need two of those guys? Certainly,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: I don't need two of them with one of them
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: making fourteen million dollars, I'm not sure Rashid Shaheed's kick
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: returning abilities are going to warrant a salary that high
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: from the Seahawks, who have difficult financial decisions to make.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: To me, that's a no brainer. I mean, I think
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: ken Walker's going to be in another uniform next year.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: But if Spo Trek's got it right, I'm going to
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: try to work out ken Walker at nine million per
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: year over Rashid Shaheed at fourteen million per year all
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: day long.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I don't Yeah, I don't know if
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: I trust those things with their reference points, you know.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: To me, if I'm just my personal opinion, I think
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: ken Walker's probably a little bit more than that, and
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: I think Rashid's probably a little bit worth a little
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: bit less than the fourteen that they have him at.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: And so, but if you just go based on those numbers,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: I'm with you. Now.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: I would also say, while Tory Horton is probably the
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: air apparent to you know, the X or the why
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: to Jackson Smith and Jigba being the X and who
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: knows what the Cooper Cup situation you know, if he's
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: just that third wide receiver or your two A whatever
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: you want to call it, your possession receiver, if he
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: wants to come back and stay in the hometown and
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: try to run it back and if that works out, fine,
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: But if it's between Rashid and Tory Horton, I'm probably
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: going Tory Horton. He's younger, he's more, less expensive, and
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: you you don't need the extra guy. Now, you know,
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: you just saw basically after Tory Horton went down and.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: Then they picked up Rashid.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: That was a nice way of you know, you can't
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: basically set your roster expecting that there's going to be
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: an injury because you don't know where the injuries are
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: gonna happen. You just know there's going to be injuries.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: So I'm sure that they're going to try to find
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: a way of like spreading it out over everybody to
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: get as many of them back as possible. But if
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: you're just having a pick between one of the two,
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: ken Walker or Rashid, I'm with you.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I'm taking ken Walker at that price point, I'm taking yeah, yep.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: My expectation is is that they're going to offer like
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: four years forty to ken Walker, and to me, that
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: is something like, all right, you're you're coming off of
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: outstanding here, You're still young. By running back standards, we
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: did protect some of your carries this past year. Maybe
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: you figured something out, Maybe we figured out something about
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: how to use you. We think you're valuable enough that
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: we'll go if that's market value, we'll go a little
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: over market value to keep you. But I think that
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: he's going way over market value. I think the running
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: back is kind of projecting back up again. If it
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: was a stock, I think it's going back up again.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: And I think, as I pointed out earlier this week,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: there are teams with more money and a lot more
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: desperation to get good than what the Seahawks are. I
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: would imagine it's going to go at least twelve million
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: a year for ken Walker. Somebody I think is going
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: to be willing to pay that in the offseason, and
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: I think that John Schneider will balk at that. Now,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: what he could do is he could play the free
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: agent tag and just one more year, but that figures
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: at fourteen.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say a franchise tag option is
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: higher than I would want.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Well, it's yes, but it is committing to just one season, yeah,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: you know, And so if you wanted to keep him,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: you know, I'd keep Ken Walker at fourteen million dollars
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: a year before I'd keep Rashid Shaheed at fourteen million
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: dollars a year because I've got Tory Horton where I
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: don't have anything right now at the running back when
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Zach Charbone is coming back. Yeah, running back position. But
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: certainly John Schneider, as I mentioned before, I mean, he's
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: got seventy over seventy million dollars in cap space to
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: work with. He's and even that is I mean NFL
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: math is not the same as real math. I mean,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: he's got more than that to spend, and he's got
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: certainly his eye on other free agents. With he and
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald being in lockstep right now, that could actually
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: possibly make this team better. But a lot of decisions
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: to make there are every off season. Some of those
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: players that I mentioned are not going to be back
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: next year and some are. And that's just the bottom line.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: So hopefully you didn't buy a boy a Mafe jersey
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: for your kid at Christmas. I didn't you get because
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: he might be one of the ones that's out, but
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: but we shall see. It's gonna be fun. And today
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: we get the conversation started with Greg Bell at seven
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: oh five. Let's find out what else is on tape,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: What's on Tell, What's on TEP? Greg Bell at seven
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: oh five, Dustin Nickerson at seven thirty, and your Oat
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Show today at eight o'clock to wrap up the week.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: The weekend, the NBA All Stars will be on display.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: It'll be the first time in twenty two years Lebron
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: James is not an NBA All Star, which is pretty crazy. Also,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: we are expecting some news here in Seattle soon about
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: something very important to the city, and maybe we'll get
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: a little bit of information from Adam Silver coming up
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: this weekend. He usually does speak at NBA All Star Weekend,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: and I would imagine expansion is going to be one
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: of the bigger topics that will be discussed. We'll talk
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: about that here in a matter of minutes. College basketball
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: U Dub needs a win badly. They host Minnesota tomorrow
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: at six o'clock. The golfers eh and the U Dub
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: coming off. I think they're worse the loss of the
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: year at home to a bad Penn State team. The
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Olympics continue on. Team USA hit the ice last night
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: in the Hockey Arena and they won over Latvia. Finally,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: we settle our score on the ice with Latvia. It's
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: about time Latvians five to one the final score there.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: And Mariners spring training is certainly underway. We will provide
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: a little bit of spring training coverage preview for you
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: during our four hours together here on Chuck and Buck.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: But coming up next we will discuss NBA All Star weekend.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: There are two huge topics that everybody is waiting for
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Adam Silver to comment on. We'll discuss them both next
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: on Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. I know
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: that was hard for you, yea, it really was. I
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: know you don't like this song. They don't, at least
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: if we didn't have you play YouTube, I actually might
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: prefer you to to that song. Good morning, it's Chuck,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Buck and Ashley with you here on this Friday, no
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: longer football Fridays. Man. We put a lot of things
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: to bed this week and it was fun but also
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: a little bit sad. But we're starting to transition away
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: from football season into the football off season and certainly
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: an awakening of everything else that's going on in the
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: sports world. It turns out that when your team wins
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, you get a little bit fixated in
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: sports talk radio, and that's exactly where we were, and
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: I don't think anyone would have wanted it any other way.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: That's listening right now. But we do have some other
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: things going on, including NBA All Star Weekend. Now that
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: hasn't really affected Seattle's market in a long time, not
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: in a positive way anyway, But there are a couple
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: of things that are going to be discussed ad nauseum
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: throughout this weekend. Adam Silver will undoubtedly take questions from
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: the media this weekend. He will undoubtedly be interviewed about
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: the state of the game this weekend at NBA All
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Star Weekend in Los Angeles, and certainly there are going
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: to be two pressing topics, the first of which is
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: the one we're most interested in here in Seattle. What
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: is going on with expansion? When are the Sonics returning
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: to Seattle? And there is a palpable buzz. Now I
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: know you've heard this before, but there is a palpable
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: buzz that it is about ready to happen that Adam
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: Silver is about ready to pull the trigger. He has
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: said it's going to happen at some time in the
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: calendar year. I don't think we're going to find out
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: this weekend that the Sonics are coming back, but I would.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: I would guess we're going to find out some information
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: that lends us to believe we're getting very very close
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: to that. I hope so.
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: I hope so because I don't know for sure if
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: my affinity for the NBA has been much lower than
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: it is right now, and yet I know for a
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: fact if we get the Sonics back that will rejuvenate it.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Then you know, I'll be excited about watching it again,
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: because I mean, it's when I ended up seeing or
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: I think you mentioned it yesterday, the NBA All Star
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: Game is this week. I was like, oh, like, didn't
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: really even it wasn't even really on my radar. I mean,
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: and so I can't wait for the Sonics to be back.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: Hopefully we are finding something out about that here soon.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would assume we'll get some sound bite that's
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: going to be someone's going to ask a question, well,
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: have you figured out anything about expansion?
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: And I would think he would address it without having
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: be asked a question. I think that it is such
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: a big topic that I would hope that he will
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: state of the game, mention it, and then be asked
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: follow up.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true, that's probably yeah, and so there'll be
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: some sound bite and we'll hang on to it. But
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: as you say, we've been through this, and it seems
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: like every year in the last three years we've kind
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: of been through it more than we have in the
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: last ten years. It's just been a slow milled, a
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: slow burn, and so I'm sticking to what I've been saying. Though,
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: until they actually say it and it's actually happening, I
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: am not getting my helps up.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: I honestly believe that it would have already happened. I
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: think everybody knows it's going to happen. I think it's
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: the worst kept secret that either expansion is going to
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: occur or and we don't want it this way, some
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: team's going to move to Seattle. I mean, this Jody
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Allen thing is something worth monitoring. If she ends up
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: giving up her interest in the Seattle Seahawks and sells them,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: she's already in the NBA game. And there's a thought
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: out there that she would move the Portland Trail Blazers
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: to Seattle, and I know we want didn't they sell
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: the Blazers. Well, either way, she's wanting to get She's
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: she's a player in all of this and could end
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: up she could end up bringing the NBA to Seattle
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: at Portland's expense from what I understand. But yes, the Sonics. Certainly,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: we've kind of been tossed around a little bit on
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: this topic. But I really think it's the unforeseen ownership
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: sort of making waves that caused this most recent delay
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: With Adam Silver, I think he would have already announced
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: it in some form, but I think some unforeseen circumstances
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: kept him from doing that. But as he told us
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: at the end of last year that we won't make
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: them wait any longer. We will have a resolution, we
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: will have an announcement to make in twenty twenty six,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: and even if they decided not to expand there's a
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: feeling out there that some team in the NBA, whether
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: it's Memphis or Portland or somebody else who's not doing
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: so well, will move to Seattle. So I think we're
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: going to find out about Seattle SuperSonics Basketball soon. And
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I would imagine we'll get a little nugget this weekend.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean my first choice is expansion obviously.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: I don't don't really want to take a team from
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: somewhere else. We know what that feels like around here.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: I will just take a team, I will. I will
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: just take a team just to get the NBA.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Everybody will. I mean, as much as you say I'll
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: never do that, you'll be glad they did that guaranteed.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: So I mean, it's I think there's a right way
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: to do it. I wouldn't be surprised if if they
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: do announce it here soon. But then again, I think
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: I said that about a year ago.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Yes, so I I mean I said it for sure
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: that was gonna happen last year. That's what I'm saying.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: I think something happened. Some snag occurred last year. I
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: think it we would already know. But the owners, I think,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: unexpectedly balked at a few financial things about the matter,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: and Adam Silver realized I don't have my ducks in
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: a row on this topic yet, and so we're gonna
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: punt it. We're gonna punt on it for a little
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: while until we can figure out our game plan going forward.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's what it's been. But it does
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: seem and I know that it's just seems because we're
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: more sensitive because it's our team, But it does seem
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: like there's always one other thing that has to get
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: taken care of, one other thing that gets put in.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: Oh well okay, we're going to do it, but now
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: we got to do this, and now we've got to
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: do this.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: So again, I'll just say this what two years ago,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: toddli WICKI told us live on the radio, it's happening.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and when it does, I'll be excited.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got some he's got some contacts. He may
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: he has conversations with people. I think he just I
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: think he has, right from Adam Silver's lips, that's what
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: I think that would be a contact. I think that
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: there's I mean, we were talking about when we went
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: down the Super Bowl. There was six of us and
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: we were trying to figure out where we were gonna eat.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: We couldn't decide, right. We ended up splitting it up
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: to try to get thirty billionaires to agree on something exactly.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Well, the other thing and the other topic, and this
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: is the hot button topic right now in the sport,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: people think load management is an issue, not even close
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: the issue in the NBA, because load management is really
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's disappointing for fans at times, especially if
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: you're taking your kid to the game and the star
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: players not playing, But that is at least about trying
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: to win later in the year. Load management is about
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: keeping the team as healthy as possible, fresh as possible
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: for when the games matter the most. So at least
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: that has the eye on what's best for the organization
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: and for winning later down you know, that season. But
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: this tanking issue, they have put some things in place
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: and it has only gotten worse. It has just created
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: more teams tanking. Like the worst ten teams in the
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: league right now are perceived to be tanking. That's a
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: third of the league. And this is a major issue
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: for Adam Silver, and it's not gonna nothing. No half
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: measures are going to fix this. At this point, these
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: teams are blatantly saying to Adam Silver, right to his face,
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: we don't care how much you find us. In the
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: long term, it is more financially beneficial that we get
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: a higher draft pick and try to fix our organization
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: than it is for us to play our guys now,
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Like Utah just put Jaron Jackson on the IL yesterday
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: after a year of tanking accusations, and they just traded
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: for Jackson at the trade deadline, and people are asking, well,
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: he's even hurt. Yeah, that's bad. Or are you saying, well,
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: that guy's going to get in the way of us
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: losing basketball games. I mean, we picked him, We traded
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: for him because we want to start identifying pieces for
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: how we're going to be good again. But that's not
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: going to happen this year. So they trade for Jaron
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Jackson and then he has the surgery yesterday, and a
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: lot of people are wondering if he's even hurt or
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: if he even needs it at this point. But what
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: a wonderful way to tank is to bench your star
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: player that you just quired. And so this is happening
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: league wide. No half measures are gonna fix it, no
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: band aids. They're gonna have to come up with a
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: revolutionary way to keep teams from tanking. And you know,
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to see what they come up with.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: But brace yourself, it's gonna be weird. You're gonna say
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: to her, So, why is this necessary, And the reason
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: is it's necessary because nothing they've tried, and they've tried
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: and tried and tried, has fixed the issue. And this
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: is a much bigger issue than anything else that bothers
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: NBA fans.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: Well, they just ended up finding the jazz five hundred
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: thousand bucks, and then all of a sudden, everybody comes
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: out like, well, that doesn't make sense. We just won
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: our last game. It's like, well, it's not the they're
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: they're not saying you don't at times win games. They're
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: saying that you're obviously overtly tanking.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: And you're right.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: The money a five hundred thousand dollars fine or one hundred
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: thousand five that's nothing to these people because they understand
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: a number one draft pick changes the course of things.
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: We make a whole bunch more money. They're gonna have
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: to make that dollar figure you're hurt, or they're gonna
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: have to come up with something like you're talking about.
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: So that just is weird, and it's like it's going
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: to be the top and you know that if you
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: don't get to this point, then you you kick kicked
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: out of the lottery part of things or whatever it
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: might be. It's going to be it's going to be interesting.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: But you're right, they got to figure out a way
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: to curb this thing.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Well, I've said in Reckless of Breakfast, what you do
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: is you get to the end of the season, who
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: doesn't make the playoffs, they have to play for the
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: number one pick, have a tournament, have them play for it,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: and if the players aren't all that into it, so
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: be it. You know, at least you're not just handing
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: it to the team that was worst at lose or
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: best at losing. Now that we're intentionally trying to lose,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: the NFL doesn't have to worry about this issue because
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: we don't get to the end of the season feeling
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: like the half third of the league is trying to
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: lose on purpose. That's where we are in the NBA,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: and that is a terrible look for competitive sports, much
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: less at this level. So uh, maybe it is something
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: as crazy as a postseason turn ornament where the winner
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: gets the lottery, where you force them to try and
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: win at the end of the year. Maybe it's a
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: new formula where wins actually count against losing, which is insane.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: But they're actually kicking the tires on that as well.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: Whatever they come up with, it's gonna feel weird. But
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: they can't just do these pity pat measures to try
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: to fix this. They've got to do something aggressive in
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: order to change this, because I just it. It just
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: isn't good for professional sports when up the NBA has
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: a third of its teams trying to lose on purpose
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: for half the season. All right, Coming up next, Greg
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: Bell's gonna join us at seven oh five. We'll launch
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: the offseason conversations with Greg today at seven oh five.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Of course, they've got the first decision to make this
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: offseason the Seahawks, and that is who's gonna replace Clint
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: Kubiak That we know has to happen and probably happen soon.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: We'll discuss the next sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: And I went to school.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: With, Oh, that would have been great, save that for Halloween.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: I will be worse than Victoria at that segment.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Movie Monster or somebody. I went to school with Mickey Cochsberger.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: Movie Monster kidding, and we already know the cochys Berger.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we know about the Cochsbergers, right that fake family
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: and Brighton.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Blow to Vogel, you would have thought that would have
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: been a movie Monster. Isn't that the guy from Texas
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Chainsaw Massacre leather Faces Sidekick? Yeah?
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: I did see half of that movie, did the remake? Yeah,
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: and then I walked out of theater because it was
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: so bad.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, usually horror movie. I've ever walked out of the
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: movie theater. Oh, I have. I even watched. I even
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: went and saw The Bride of Chucky and that was terrible. Uh.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Two two movies I've walked out of AI Okay with
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: Haley Joel Osmond. And part of that was because I
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: was I was trying to squeeze it in and there
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: was a chance I was going to be late, and
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm not gonna be late to finish watching
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: this turd, so I just I just took off. I
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: would have otherwise stuck it out. And then the other one.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: And you're gonna hate me for this Blue Crush Dodgeball. Oh.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: I could not take Adam's Ben Stiller's character one second more.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: Really terrible. Yeah, the rest of the movie wasn't so bad,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: but I couldn't take Ben Stiller one second more. So
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: I walked out. Yeah, you don't want to go to
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Globo Jim I did laugh at I will make you
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: bleed your own blood. I thought that was pretty good one. Well,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: good morning headlines coming up at seven o'clock. Greg Bell's
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: coming up at seven o five today. We've got off
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: season questions to ask Greg before we give him the
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: week off next week as we head down to Peoria
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: for spring training coverage. And one of the things we
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: certainly got to get settled here, I would imagine sooner
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: than later, is the OC situation Kubiak. Clint Kubiak is
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: now head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. Look, I
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: realize this is significant. I don't There are a lot
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: of things that could be leaving the Seahawks that I
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: would worry about more than Clint Kubiak. But Hugh Mellen
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: said it yesterday, I am concerned about this. I am
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: concerned about leaving losing Clint Kubiak, and I think that
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: is born out of man. We've tried a lot of
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: different offensive coordinators. You know when one actually works, when
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: one is actually clicking, when your quarterback seems to have
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: a great relationship with it. Don't underestimate that. So color
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Hugh concerned about losing Clint Kubiak.
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: Well, I've been on that same side. I mean, I'm
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: more concerned than you are, I think. I mean, you're
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: going to find somebody and hopefully you can pick up
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: where you left off. I think that's the reason why
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: they're interviewing from in house first and foremost. And if
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: you do that, it's not like you don't know the
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: guys you're interviewing. You're probably leaning towards one of them
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: or wanting to find out a little bit more. But yeah,
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think there's a way where you can
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: kind of pick up where you're left off, you know,
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: where you don't have to change all of the you know,
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: your terminology and your majority of your playbook stays the same,
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: and there's just a different voice call in the place.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: But there is a chance that maybe.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: You're like, well, there's a I don't think maybe any
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: of these guys are ready for that responsibility. And so
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: then you go outside and now you bring somebody in,
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: and if it's a different terminology and it's it's a
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: different game plan, if it's not the outside zone that
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: just led you to, you know, a super Bowl, then yeah,
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: there's a chance that there's a falloff I'm more on
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: the concerned, but not like, oh, there's no chance you
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: can replace the mind of click koobiac.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, usually super Bowl champions, what you're dealing with
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: is a lot deeper free agents that are leaving the building,
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: or you have to pay your quarterback. Well, our quarterback
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: salary is kind of already set, and it's not set
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: at some exorbitant number. You you might have to replace
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: your head coach for goodness sake, you might have to.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: You know, I think that there are there have been
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions that had a lot more to overcome
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: than the Seahawks losing an offensive coordinator. And I'm not
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: saying it's not a big deal. It's just there could
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: be a it could be a lot worse than this.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: You're gonna lose somebody, coaches, players, You're gonna lose somebody
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: after winning a Super Bowl. That's inevitable. This to me,
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: I think can be done, and it's gonna be It's
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: gonna be a challenge, but there would be losses that
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: I'd be a lot more worried about.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: Well, And I think especially if what Greg is saying
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: is true and ends up or ends up being true,
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: and that we don't lose other assistants that are following him,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: because that's really usually the fallout, right is you lose one.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: How many people is he trying to bring with him?
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: And by Greg's account, he's saying they're not letting anyone
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: else leave the building.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well then I don't feel as bad about it. Yeah.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: I think that probably was the Yes, you can talk
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: to the raiders, We're not going to stand in the way,
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: but don't try to take our guys. Yeah, yeah, we
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: get first DIBs. Yeah, on our own guys. And that
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: probably was worked out during the playoffs between Kubiak and John.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: It probably was worked out at that stage. So we'll
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: ask Greg about it coming up here at seven oh
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: five plus your cash contest keyword chuck it back on
