- 0:00Speaker 1: Dominating the airwaves, taking no prisoners on a Thursday in
- 0:02Speaker 1: the good Land. It is the Huddle Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin,
- 0:05Speaker 1: Drew Wilson, Bill Schmid, armand sorry and huddled up for you,
- 0:08Speaker 1: with you today and every day between five and eight
- 0:12Speaker 1: a m.
- 0:14Speaker 2: You can get us on the Nicola lott Co. I'm
- 0:15Speaker 2: talking text on eight seven seven seven ninety four seven three.
- 0:19Speaker 1: We don't have like a fixed bit on Thursday. There's
- 0:22Speaker 1: no buyer sell, there's no game balls, there's no hot takes.
- 0:26Speaker 1: So what do we call Thursday? It's Thursday, It's Friday Junior,
- 0:28Speaker 1: Friday Light, Friday Eve.
- 0:30Speaker 2: What do we what are we vibing on? Always liked
- 0:33Speaker 2: Friday Junior. You know the throwback thursdays of the world
- 0:37Speaker 2: are ones that I know happened a lot of times.
- 0:39Speaker 2: You remember there was that time that a Thurst trap
- 0:42Speaker 2: Thursday was a thing. Oh yeah, it was a thing
- 0:44Speaker 2: for a hot minute. That was the thing for a while.
- 0:48Speaker 2: I have an idea though, Oh I've had this.
- 0:52Speaker 3: You're right, Drew, we don't really have a a Thursday
- 0:55Speaker 3: kind of set set bit. And I was kind of
- 0:58Speaker 3: thinking about this because I always reconsider or like have
- 1:03Speaker 3: a second round of circling back in my mind about
- 1:06Speaker 3: things that we've already talked about during the week during.
- 1:10Speaker 2: Well that makes one of us spyers.
- 1:11Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, during exactly, I don't revisiting kicks.
- 1:16Speaker 2: And you know, like when you go back and watch
- 1:19Speaker 2: the films, what you're saying. Okay, So what about thought
- 1:22Speaker 2: about it Thursday?
- 1:23Speaker 3: Because I always something that I'm like, you know, I
- 1:25Speaker 3: thought about it, and I was thinking about it. We
- 1:27Speaker 3: thought I was kind of you know, what about thought
- 1:30Speaker 3: about it Thursday?
- 1:31Speaker 2: Is that too much? Too long? I don't know. Just
- 1:33Speaker 2: thrown it out there or thrown it out there it Thursday,
- 1:36Speaker 2: you know, so just throwing it out a shower thoughts Thursday.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Just grab something from Reddit. Let's go throwing it out there.
- 1:43Speaker 2: I like that, not bad, but I'm looking for the
- 1:45Speaker 2: little rea.
- 1:45Speaker 3: You know.
- 1:46Speaker 2: It's it's army. It's not the worst idea ever. I'll
- 1:48Speaker 2: take that. It's not the worst idea ever. Definitely not
- 1:52Speaker 2: the best. I like it that. Yeah, if I was
- 1:54Speaker 2: gonna put it in, if I was gonna put it
- 1:56Speaker 2: in a race, it's gonna finish probably twenty out of forty.
- 2:00Speaker 2: But I'm not gonna say put that in the drawer.
- 2:02Speaker 2: In the idea drawer and light it on fire. No,
- 2:04Speaker 2: I think there's there's something to it because a lot
- 2:08Speaker 2: of times you want to call back to things. I've
- 2:10Speaker 2: often said this, Dre. I wish I was witty, right,
- 2:12Speaker 2: because I think of good lines that I'd be able
- 2:15Speaker 2: to say in an interaction about three minutes after we
- 2:17Speaker 2: have mom. That's the jerk store, right sort Like if
- 2:20Speaker 2: I'd be able to throw something better out, uh, then
- 2:23Speaker 2: oh well, I'd be a lot funnier, I'd be a
- 2:24Speaker 2: lot smarter. I'll be a lot a lot better at this.
- 2:27Speaker 2: So I understand where you're going with it. The throwing
- 2:30Speaker 2: it out there Thursday feels a lot like hot take
- 2:32Speaker 2: hump Day, which comes right on the heels of it.
- 2:34Speaker 2: I think we need more, a little separation, a separation
- 2:38Speaker 2: for more hot takes to become natural. Otherwise you're just
- 2:40Speaker 2: throwing out here, you know, like the NBA Finals trophies
- 2:44Speaker 2: a participation trophy, right, you know we don't want to
- 2:47Speaker 2: do that. There would be there'd be no real show
- 2:49Speaker 2: that would say some stuff like that.
- 2:50Speaker 3: That's why I like thought about it. There'sday because it
- 2:52Speaker 3: engenders the discussion a little bit more. But hey, you
- 2:55Speaker 3: know also the it's alliterative. Thought about it?
- 2:58Speaker 2: Third, Yeah, we love a liter We understood the alliteration part.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Oh yeah, fair. You didn't have to explain that it
- 3:04Speaker 2: was it had alliteration. I explained it further. Maybe that
- 3:06Speaker 2: was the key? Is that how you thought of most
- 3:08Speaker 2: of your jokes too when you're younger? What thought about it? Thursday? No,
- 3:11Speaker 2: if I explained it better, then it would it would
- 3:14Speaker 2: a little bit more. Yeah.
- 3:14Speaker 3: I'm always convinced if you didn't laugh, it's only because
- 3:16Speaker 3: you didn't understand it, because the jokes could.
- 3:19Speaker 2: You must not have understood what I was talking about
- 3:21Speaker 2: it I wanted to do.
- 3:23Speaker 3: There are there have been a lot of comments rolling
- 3:25Speaker 3: in since we opened it five from a lot of listeners.
- 3:28Speaker 3: We got them on the uh obviously on the nick
- 3:31Speaker 3: dot com talking text line and here on YouTube, Facebook
- 3:34Speaker 3: and stream were Mike checking in good morning. Do the
- 3:37Speaker 3: Brewers get Willie back? There's something people have thrown out. Uh,
- 3:40Speaker 3: pretty interesting. Cooper and Cooper eventually wait wait, wait, yeah,
- 3:45Speaker 3: we can't.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Two days into the Cooper Pratt regime and you want
- 3:48Speaker 1: Willia Domos can't.
- 3:50Speaker 2: We can't we get back and the Brewers get.
- 3:53Speaker 1: Will Willia Diamas back so they can pay him what's
- 3:55Speaker 1: left of his one hundred and eighty million dollar contract
- 3:57Speaker 1: that they declined to give him in the first place.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Because Cooper Pratt was on the on the horizon and
- 4:02Speaker 1: you made.
- 4:03Speaker 2: The right decision. Your logic is flawed there.
- 4:05Speaker 1: I mean, who was I like Willie Thomas as a person,
- 4:08Speaker 1: wonderful guy, wish him the best. But the idea that
- 4:10Speaker 1: you want him back on the Brewers right now at
- 4:12Speaker 1: that cost, that's the tough thing, true, Folly.
- 4:15Speaker 2: I love what planet are you on? What? I love
- 4:17Speaker 2: to see thirty Homers at shortstop? Sure not for that
- 4:21Speaker 2: price tag, especially when you did what was You did
- 4:26Speaker 2: it exactly to a te generally speaking, you'd shipped that
- 4:29Speaker 2: guy off, but you were too good, so you stayed,
- 4:31Speaker 2: You competed, you didn't perform again in the playoffs, which
- 4:33Speaker 2: once again has happened a couple of different times. Uh.
- 4:36Speaker 2: And then he cashed it on a career year. That's
- 4:39Speaker 2: on this rolls, that's how this goes.
- 4:41Speaker 1: And you got arguably the best ball out of Willie's
- 4:43Speaker 1: putting up some numbers in a tougher place to hit,
- 4:45Speaker 1: for sure, Definitely tougher place to hit a tougher division.
- 4:48Speaker 2: So no reason to bring him back.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Obviously, not tougher division, I mean tougher division for ballparks.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Like when you're going to Dodger Stadium and you're hitting
- 4:56Speaker 1: hitting eighty one times at Arizona's no shore in San Francisco,
- 5:00Speaker 1: So yeah, ball jumps a little in Arizona Dodge Stadium
- 5:02Speaker 1: at night.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Tough to hit, tough to hit homers there.
- 5:04Speaker 1: There, and then you get Coors. But come on, it's
- 5:07Speaker 1: like pining for now do you think you said, I
- 5:13Speaker 1: don't think that that money.
- 5:14Speaker 2: I don't know how. I mean, who's gonna take That's
- 5:16Speaker 2: a tough one. Like, there's a lot of.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Teams, most good teams already have short step covered because
- 5:20Speaker 1: it's kind of an important position.
- 5:22Speaker 2: It's kind of one of the most important ones.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Yeah, and now the Brewers have it covered for the
- 5:25Speaker 1: next eight years.
- 5:26Speaker 2: I've always thought he'd make sense with the Yankees. They
- 5:29Speaker 2: have somewhat of a hole. Their vulcans has been that bad.
- 5:32Speaker 2: But again, you don't know what the money is going
- 5:35Speaker 2: to be in the sport in a couple of years.
- 5:37Speaker 1: If you're if you're pining for a former Brewer, and
- 5:39Speaker 1: you said Freddy Peralta, because Freddy Peralta would be the
- 5:43Speaker 1: ultimate rental, right, because he's going into free agency. If
- 5:45Speaker 1: you brought him back, you could get him for not
- 5:47Speaker 1: a lot. There was rumors that the Cubs were going
- 5:49Speaker 1: to trade for him.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Well, I think they'll definitely be a conversation for him. Yes, yes,
- 5:53Speaker 2: also a renzl of guy.
- 5:55Speaker 3: You already know what you're gonna get that you love
- 5:56Speaker 3: the movie already, so you know you're gonna enjoy your night.
- 5:59Speaker 3: You know you're gonna get what you get from Freddie.
- 6:01Speaker 3: He is already a fan favorite. But you're right, Billy,
- 6:03Speaker 3: his services rolls in.
- 6:05Speaker 2: You know, he would plug and play and just roll
- 6:07Speaker 2: right in like no everything. Well, and I think that one,
- 6:12Speaker 2: that one makes the most sense to me. And and
- 6:14Speaker 2: yesterday Jeff Passon put out his one hundred players that
- 6:17Speaker 2: could be moved at the trade deadline and added in
- 6:19Speaker 2: all the different teams that could be mentioned for him.
- 6:22Speaker 2: William Thomas I think was eighth or ninth. He was
- 6:25Speaker 2: in the top ten of guys or Freddy pardon me,
- 6:27Speaker 2: Freddy Peralta was in that in that top ten of
- 6:30Speaker 2: guys that was going to be moved and there's there's
- 6:33Speaker 2: too high of a likelihood that he does. And if
- 6:36Speaker 2: you're going to put the Brewers in the Trek schoobl conversation,
- 6:40Speaker 2: I would think they'd be much more into the Freddie
- 6:42Speaker 2: Parolki because he can get him for not much.
- 6:44Speaker 1: A lot less A low prospect would probably get you
- 6:47Speaker 1: Freddy Peralta, because I don't think he's going to sign
- 6:50Speaker 1: back with the Mets, although he could, and the Mets
- 6:52Speaker 1: could get him now get an asset or two, and they.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Wouldn't be the first. They wouldn't be the first team
- 6:57Speaker 2: to do it.
- 6:57Speaker 1: By the way, we mentioned like where the Brewers are,
- 6:59Speaker 1: The Mets are thirty three and forty one, thirteen and
- 7:02Speaker 1: a half behind Atlanta and presently five and a half
- 7:05Speaker 1: out of the wildcard race.
- 7:06Speaker 2: They're in the last place in the East. That's tough
- 7:10Speaker 2: one to pull back out.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Careful what you wish for when it comes to your
- 7:13Speaker 1: team spending a lot of money, because that doesn't guarantee success.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Sure, the Dodge's spend more than money than anybody and
- 7:17Speaker 1: they've been successful. The Mets are second, and they're awful.
- 7:20Speaker 2: And it's not like just the players that they spend
- 7:23Speaker 2: money on are bad lindor pretty good? Soto's still pretty
- 7:26Speaker 2: good and everything they've done around the Margins just doesn't
- 7:29Speaker 2: work out. How about maybe for your last great move,
- 7:32Speaker 2: your last move is Mets GM David Stern send Freddy Perolta.
- 7:36Speaker 2: I'd like that deal, come on, because I mean, if
- 7:39Speaker 2: you think there are people with the pitchforks out down
- 7:41Speaker 2: on the on the north side for Council that Mets
- 7:46Speaker 2: fandom despises them, sterns over and the Mets.
- 7:50Speaker 1: I mean, I haven't seen a Frank the Tank video
- 7:52Speaker 1: in a while. Is he like in the hospital or something?
- 7:54Speaker 1: Because of the way they've been playing.
- 7:55Speaker 2: You two in on the on the knicks right now
- 7:57Speaker 2: because I suppose too drunk kind of the next wait in
- 8:01Speaker 2: that parade. He's going to be at the parade. But
- 8:03Speaker 2: the Mets now And you can say, well, and I
- 8:05Speaker 2: just said the other about you know, teams that are
- 8:08Speaker 2: close to five hundred or you're still in the wild
- 8:10Speaker 2: like Detroit still in the wildcard race. To me, like
- 8:12Speaker 2: Detroit still in it in it well, and especially the
- 8:15Speaker 2: the A L and the N L are two different conversations,
- 8:18Speaker 2: no doubt, right Like the AL is wide open.
- 8:21Speaker 1: The Tigers are currently six out of the wild card,
- 8:24Speaker 1: and there's a bunch of teams ahead Theams. But the
- 8:26Speaker 1: Mets are five and a half out of the wild card.
- 8:27Speaker 1: But it seems like they're buried further. I was gonna say,
- 8:30Speaker 1: if they're.
- 8:30Speaker 2: Behind the Reds, Marlins, Pirates, Diamondbacks, and then if the
- 8:33Speaker 2: playoffs started today, the two wildcard teams would be uh oh,
- 8:37Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm looking. I gotta look up here the
- 8:40Speaker 2: wild card right now, the leaders in the Wildcard are Cardinals, Phillies,
- 8:43Speaker 2: and Padres. Oh okay, those are your so that that
- 8:48Speaker 2: would be a serious season ended today. Those would be
- 8:51Speaker 2: the representatives and the like. Then you got Nationals, Cubs, Diamondbacks, Pirates,
- 8:55Speaker 2: like they're down there, the Mets are down there. You
- 8:57Speaker 2: gotta jump a lot of teams. True, you gotta jump
- 9:00Speaker 2: a lot of teams. You got to take it, do that.
- 9:04Speaker 2: And and they've also been rather practical in those times,
- 9:07Speaker 2: right like I think they signed the they signed Sureser
- 9:11Speaker 2: and Verlander in an offseason and then traded both of
- 9:14Speaker 2: them right like like because they're all right, never mind
- 9:16Speaker 2: not working, Let's ship them off. Let's let's try to
- 9:18Speaker 2: get something back. For him. Uh, you would anticipate that
- 9:21Speaker 2: would be. It's also watched a little bit more of
- 9:23Speaker 2: the uh, the Cubs and Rockies game on the second
- 9:27Speaker 2: screen last night that I'd care to admit, as I
- 9:29Speaker 2: was bouncing around through a bunch of different games on
- 9:31Speaker 2: the MLB package, that Rockies team is not nearly as
- 9:34Speaker 2: bad as their record would indicate. And if they play
- 9:36Speaker 2: in the American League, who knows where they would be,
- 9:38Speaker 2: because there's so many teams that feel like bottom featers
- 9:42Speaker 2: in the AL, and it could be right there for
- 9:45Speaker 2: the taking. You mentioned the Astros earlier, a team that's
- 9:47Speaker 2: actually got winning pedigree. I think they absolutely still believe
- 9:51Speaker 2: that they can be winning this thing, and it's it's
- 9:54Speaker 2: a lot easier to forecast that when you're jumping a
- 9:58Speaker 2: bunch of teams that are rather unproven. Here, you'd be
- 10:00Speaker 2: jumping a bunch of teams then are also trying to
- 10:02Speaker 2: win it.
- 10:02Speaker 3: Only five teams in the American League are five hundred higher,
- 10:05Speaker 3: and one of them the Mariners, who lead the West
- 10:07Speaker 3: at thirty eight and thirty seven game over.
- 10:09Speaker 2: Yeah, so really not that.
- 10:11Speaker 1: If if Brandon Woodruff comes back, if and or when,
- 10:17Speaker 1: and let's say he can give you five or six
- 10:18Speaker 1: innings a clip. Is that like in the trade, isn't
- 10:20Speaker 1: that a pretty solid veteran guy, Like, isn't that a
- 10:23Speaker 1: guy who you can kind of pencil in.
- 10:25Speaker 2: Well, it's a great deadline move. He's your Game three starter. Yeah,
- 10:29Speaker 2: and well, as long as he can make it there, right,
- 10:32Speaker 2: And I hate to put the caveat in there, because
- 10:34Speaker 2: that's gonna be the caveat with any you trade for. Yeah,
- 10:36Speaker 2: but Woody, I think it's even harder to prognosticate that
- 10:40Speaker 2: he's going to be a part of it because of
- 10:42Speaker 2: what's happened later into the years. But I like starting pitching.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Everybody can use starting pitching. This one in this team
- 10:50Speaker 2: in particular, I think there are that's needed. Is as
- 10:54Speaker 2: good as they've been is again in the bullpen, they've
- 10:56Speaker 2: been so much back there, Drew and they've been missed
- 11:00Speaker 2: saying some kind of leverage arm that that Kaneig was
- 11:03Speaker 2: a year ago. I think you desperately need it to
- 11:07Speaker 2: be one of those guys that you can plug into
- 11:08Speaker 2: the back end of the bullpen and take a little
- 11:10Speaker 2: bit of stress off of that rubber arma Aaron Ashby,
- 11:13Speaker 2: because lord knows, he's gonna start probably two games in
- 11:15Speaker 2: the playoffs too.
- 11:16Speaker 3: Yeah, eventually he's not gonna be able to pitch every
- 11:18Speaker 3: inning for you, You're right, he will open. The one
- 11:20Speaker 3: thing is when he gets the playoff time, the idea
- 11:23Speaker 3: of starters and relievers gets a little bit more muddled,
- 11:25Speaker 3: and guys will pitch wherever they need to. At least
- 11:27Speaker 3: the Brewers have shown them they'll put guys whether they
- 11:29Speaker 3: need to get out. I mean it was Chad Patrick
- 11:32Speaker 3: all around last year, Freddy Peraltas pitching the eighth inning
- 11:35Speaker 3: before in big playoff games. We know that Mets game.
- 11:37Speaker 3: So you get a guy like Freddy doesn't mean he
- 11:39Speaker 3: hasked to only be a starter. I mean, if you
- 11:41Speaker 3: think he can give you two winnings here, three innings here,
- 11:43Speaker 3: anytime anywhere, and when it comes to playoff time, the
- 11:46Speaker 3: Brewers would do that. So just pitching in general, it's
- 11:49Speaker 3: not bad to have enough of it, enough of what
- 11:51Speaker 3: you can rely on. There's one other thing about Fredd.
- 11:53Speaker 2: Well, and that was one thing why Freddy wasn't on
- 11:54Speaker 2: the watch list, because he did pitch in those He did.
- 11:58Speaker 3: Anything that Brewers asked him to do, and I always
- 12:00Speaker 3: appreciated that right, because certain guys wouldn't do that. Certain
- 12:04Speaker 3: guys weren't thirty guys wouldn't rhyme with Corbyn burns.
- 12:07Speaker 2: Now, the other thing.
- 12:08Speaker 3: About Freddie and I think about why it'd be cool
- 12:10Speaker 3: to bring him back. Let's say this is the year
- 12:12Speaker 3: the Brewers breakthrough. Let's say let's say of all the
- 12:15Speaker 3: years we fought and we've knocked at that door, we
- 12:17Speaker 3: finally blow it down, and this is the year we
- 12:19Speaker 3: go all the way and get a ring.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be right to have Freddy on that team.
- 12:23Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be right to.
- 12:24Speaker 3: Have Freddy peral to Parliament who's toiled with the Brewers,
- 12:26Speaker 3: giving him, giving us so much all those years. Part
- 12:29Speaker 3: of me is like, you know, that's not a reason
- 12:31Speaker 3: to make a move, But in the back of my mind, boy,
- 12:32Speaker 3: wouldn't that be nice if he ended up being part
- 12:35Speaker 3: of a team that finally did break through.
- 12:37Speaker 2: I don't know. I think the storyline rights itself.
- 12:39Speaker 3: But I always go into the playoffs, no matter what
- 12:41Speaker 3: happened in the past, thinking and believing my team's gonna
- 12:43Speaker 3: do it until we get knocked off the horse.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Now I'm gonna do it this year again.
- 12:47Speaker 3: There's no different, and if this is the year it'd
- 12:49Speaker 3: be cool if Freddie was on.
- 12:50Speaker 2: This is the year that they that Lucy doesn't pull
- 12:52Speaker 2: the football away.
- 12:53Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the one time, you know, well, but
- 12:56Speaker 1: that's the thing you mentioned it with the Brewers. Look
- 12:58Speaker 1: at their lineup and think of yourself, what's the Bruis
- 13:01Speaker 1: lineup today? What will look like in October and what
- 13:05Speaker 1: will look like in twenty twenty eight and twenty twenty nine.
- 13:09Speaker 1: They're gonna be good, Like they have a pipeline of guys.
- 13:12Speaker 1: They're gonna be good. They're set up to be good
- 13:15Speaker 1: now and into the next couple of years. And the
- 13:17Speaker 1: cost certainly now, I think there's a bigger worry that
- 13:20Speaker 1: there won't be a season next year than there is
- 13:23Speaker 1: that the Brewers won't be good next year. Correct, Yes,
- 13:25Speaker 1: and it's that's to me is like that's it's pretty gravy.
- 13:28Speaker 2: And that part of it drew. Wouldn't that again, Maybe
- 13:31Speaker 2: I'm maybe I'm wrong here. I think that would push
- 13:34Speaker 2: teams to then go a little bit harder at this
- 13:37Speaker 2: one with the uncertainty for a year.
- 13:39Speaker 1: I'm not sure if that's I don't know if the
- 13:41Speaker 1: I don't know if you can let that cloud it
- 13:43Speaker 1: or not. I think you still gotta be true to
- 13:45Speaker 1: your Okay, let's assume we're gonna play. We're gonna play game.
- 13:49Speaker 1: I'm not like, well going all and again that's I
- 13:51Speaker 1: hate that all in all?
- 13:52Speaker 2: What does that mean? All is it's a out. It's
- 13:56Speaker 2: like a definition of pornography. You know what when you
- 13:59Speaker 2: know you see it. But like it's the philosophical thing. Okay,
- 14:03Speaker 2: so we all we love the idea of schooble. You
- 14:05Speaker 2: love the idea of school if it means you give
- 14:07Speaker 2: up made and Lara like, I don't know if I
- 14:10Speaker 2: like it that much? Right, No, And if it's a
- 14:13Speaker 2: Brailan Pain or somebody like that, Okay, it's a promising
- 14:16Speaker 2: a lower level level.
- 14:18Speaker 1: Yes, that's the beauty of having a great farm system
- 14:20Speaker 1: is but the top of the farm system. I want
- 14:22Speaker 1: those guys. I want young, cheap guys.
- 14:24Speaker 2: Hey, sus my day, we've talked too much about now.
- 14:26Speaker 2: He feels like he's on the team because the Pratt
- 14:29Speaker 2: Drew Fisher's getting too that.
- 14:30Speaker 1: The Pratt and Turio deals, I mean maybe and Lara,
- 14:33Speaker 1: maybe they give you the flexibility to extend the terrang
- 14:37Speaker 1: or a Churio because Christianologs is on his last big contract,
- 14:43Speaker 1: right for sure, So when Christianology exits the stage and
- 14:46Speaker 1: opens up a twenty million dollar slot.
- 14:48Speaker 2: He slides into it.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Yep, would it be Contraras, would it be Terrang? Would
- 14:52Speaker 1: it be a free agent that they go get that
- 14:54Speaker 1: if they needed a if his got hurt and they
- 14:56Speaker 1: needed another story.
- 14:57Speaker 2: They need another arm well, and they've they've shown I
- 15:00Speaker 2: think they give like they have one spot for a
- 15:02Speaker 2: twenty million dollar guy too, right, because like it was Reye. Hoskins,
- 15:06Speaker 2: was that was our big what was he making it seventeen?
- 15:08Speaker 2: Like he was kind of close. Now Woody, it's the
- 15:09Speaker 2: twenty two. Yeah, I've said for a long time it
- 15:12Speaker 2: would be Contrere's like whether or not it would be
- 15:15Speaker 2: at catcher or at first base. I want him to
- 15:18Speaker 2: be a part of the ecosystem moving forward.
- 15:20Speaker 1: Like he's starting to look like a guy who could
- 15:22Speaker 1: catch all the time like Molina did, right, Man, I.
- 15:26Speaker 2: Mean seeing his brother make the transition over to first base.
- 15:28Speaker 2: I know that it's difficult, but with that kind of
- 15:30Speaker 2: work ethic and that kind of passion for the game,
- 15:32Speaker 2: I feel pretty confident he's gonna figure out yeaut he
- 15:34Speaker 2: might be a guy that you want to build aunt
- 15:36Speaker 2: or terraing like either one of those guys, yeah or both.
- 15:38Speaker 2: I mean if you could. But so like there if
- 15:41Speaker 2: the Yellich one pieces off and that other one, I
- 15:44Speaker 2: think you definitely could. There's the other. You know, the
- 15:48Speaker 2: question will be and we have a long time to
- 15:50Speaker 2: answer it, and they'll answer it for us with whatever
- 15:52Speaker 2: happens with the CBA. But if you got to get
- 15:55Speaker 2: up to a salary floor, then you do have somewhat
- 15:58Speaker 2: of a chance because at that point you gotta spend
- 16:00Speaker 2: the money. You might as well spend it on your
- 16:02Speaker 2: own guys. And I think that's that's gonna be one
- 16:04Speaker 2: of the fascinating ones. Does a long term contract for
- 16:08Speaker 2: Luis Laura completely take him off the bargaining table for you?
- 16:12Speaker 2: Or do you think that there's a possibility that other
- 16:14Speaker 2: teams look at that.
- 16:15Speaker 1: I don't think that would be more. I think you
- 16:18Speaker 1: would trade for that, and I think that's actually helpful.
- 16:20Speaker 1: It's good like cost certainty and locked it in and
- 16:22Speaker 1: that makes him more attractive.
- 16:24Speaker 2: That would be an interesting one if that was a centerpiece,
- 16:27Speaker 2: because he I'm with you, I think that's an attractive piece,
- 16:30Speaker 2: and if I'm also another team looking around saying, okay,
- 16:33Speaker 2: Brewers had that, Brewers signed him, so they must like him.
- 16:36Speaker 2: We're going with him, and this could be a little
- 16:38Speaker 2: turn about, like I'm seeing some people online arm and
- 16:40Speaker 2: you're not seeing this because you're not on Twitter right now,
- 16:43Speaker 2: You're missing. Now we've gotten to the point of the
- 16:46Speaker 2: Giannis conversation where we're where people are speculating, are the
- 16:50Speaker 2: Bucks doing all this? Turn it around? Make Tyler Hero angry?
- 16:56Speaker 2: Now he demands a trade to the Bucks and they
- 16:58Speaker 2: don't give up. Honest reverse thinking so much getting everybody
- 17:03Speaker 2: in their own head that it flips around. Okay, now
- 17:05Speaker 2: the Brewers are trying to sell us off on here.
- 17:07Speaker 2: He's not that good. I'm interested to see where they've
- 17:10Speaker 2: lined it up, because whatever MLB pipeline Jim callis, they
- 17:14Speaker 2: do a great job. Every Baseball America baseball perspective, everybody's
- 17:19Speaker 2: prospect lining and rankings are different than what Matt Arnold
- 17:22Speaker 2: and that group have. And they've identified who they know
- 17:26Speaker 2: and feel like are gonna be the best ones. And
- 17:27Speaker 2: maybe there's some guys who other teams are gonna covet
- 17:30Speaker 2: even more that become better bargaining chips for you because
- 17:33Speaker 2: you might not actually like them as much as other
- 17:35Speaker 2: teams do.
- 17:36Speaker 3: And the Brewers ways have definitely as they good point
- 17:39Speaker 3: made every GM second guess themselves. I don't care what
- 17:41Speaker 3: anybody says. They've definitely done that. They've definitely been like,
- 17:44Speaker 3: oh is this who we think it is? And to
- 17:47Speaker 3: what you were saying, Billy, make everybody wonder should I
- 17:50Speaker 3: be looking at this player differently? And maybe if yeah,
- 17:54Speaker 3: if you don't know any different, like, well, if the Brewers.
- 17:56Speaker 2: Like him, he must be all right, so I'm taking him.
- 17:58Speaker 3: But I think that if you already like a player
- 18:00Speaker 3: or a prospect and he's already signed to that type
- 18:02Speaker 3: of deal and you're committed to saying okay, we could
- 18:05Speaker 3: give him a shot and the deals team friendly, I
- 18:07Speaker 3: think it definitely makes them more attractive in a trade,
- 18:10Speaker 3: even if that's gonna be. So that's what makes those
- 18:12Speaker 3: those type of deals doubly advantageous.
- 18:15Speaker 1: Like that, ooh, I like that one eight seven seven seven,
- 18:19Speaker 1: one ninety seven to three. When we come back, we've
- 18:21Speaker 1: reached halftime of the Thursday edition of the program, Scott
- 18:25Speaker 1: Dolphin will pop in.
- 18:26Speaker 2: He's off tomorrow, veteran move smart man, smart man. Maybe
- 18:30Speaker 2: he had something he thought about for Thursday. Yeah.
- 18:33Speaker 4: Uh.
- 18:33Speaker 2: The barrister on the talking text line eight seven seven
- 18:35Speaker 2: seven nine four three, Nicolay Law, He's like, how about
- 18:38Speaker 2: take back Thursday where you take back a freezing cold
- 18:40Speaker 2: take of your own? I like that. If you have one,
- 18:43Speaker 2: I do appreciate it, like.
- 18:44Speaker 1: My all time freezing cold take of saying Dwayne Wade
- 18:46Speaker 1: would have the impact in the NBA that Ron Daye
- 18:48Speaker 1: did in the NFL.
- 18:49Speaker 2: Oh yeah, ooh yeah, you'd be able to shoot like
- 18:54Speaker 2: I'm sure glad there wasn't a microphone around. Uh, young
- 18:57Speaker 2: billy who said that Greg Oden was gonna have a
- 18:58Speaker 2: better NBA career than Kevin dur Oh.
- 19:00Speaker 3: Boy, I've had plenty of those takes too. Boy, what
- 19:04Speaker 3: was it my Luca one? Luca hadn't done anything.
- 19:06Speaker 1: I said, Well, how about all the how about all
- 19:08Speaker 1: the hot takes that Jalen Brunson was a bad pick
- 19:10Speaker 1: up by the Knicks a couple of years ago.
- 19:12Speaker 2: And there are gonna be a lot of folks standing
- 19:14Speaker 2: outside ready for that parade. We'll talk about that and
- 19:18Speaker 2: answer to gonna be a as we move forward.
- 19:21Speaker 1: Scott Dolphin is next year in the Huddle. Fox Sports
- 19:23Speaker 1: Radio Wisconsin, First day of Summer Fest. Let's have a
- 19:36Speaker 1: damn summer. It's halftime of the Thursday edition of the Huddle.

- 19:41Speaker 1: Hall FM one oh six Dolph. First things first, another
- 19:45Speaker 1: glorious sold out night. Very brisk business, a little rainy
- 19:48Speaker 1: last night, but yeah, Garth Brooks show went off.
- 19:49Speaker 2: They got lucky.
- 19:50Speaker 5: You know when you saw some of the nasty storms
- 19:52Speaker 5: hitting racing Kenosha County.
- 19:54Speaker 2: I guess the whole area got lucky.
- 19:55Speaker 5: But yeah, I was worried about people going to Garth
- 19:57Speaker 5: last night, but they got it done. They got it
- 19:59Speaker 5: in too, incredible nights of of great country music.
- 20:02Speaker 2: And now we those are the appeteasers.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Now we start for real through they broke the seal
- 20:06Speaker 1: and then the rains last night and into overnight they just, uh,
- 20:10Speaker 1: it's a rinsing of the Summerfest grounds.
- 20:12Speaker 2: Force.
- 20:12Speaker 5: Now it's like, let's go. I was down there Monday.
- 20:16Speaker 5: We had to drop some FM on six vehicles off
- 20:19Speaker 5: down there, and that.
- 20:20Speaker 2: Place is, Hey, you're so big time you're involved in that,
- 20:22Speaker 2: Like you don't have people for that, you're a startinating
- 20:26Speaker 2: country music, the morning show of the year and vehicles
- 20:30Speaker 2: down the curtain. Back here, we had people until COVID,
- 20:33Speaker 2: and now the people that come back, they all that changed.
- 20:37Speaker 3: Congratulations it all ourselves, you know, not that we didn't before.
- 20:41Speaker 3: But if you're working on the radio, you're a grinder.
- 20:43Speaker 3: You can't take a shower. You can't what's all that,
- 20:46Speaker 3: Billy That? Yeah, I can't take a shot. Tell you
- 20:49Speaker 3: about how tough their job is. Oh yeah, Billy.
- 20:56Speaker 5: When you get a taste of the big leagues, which
- 20:58Speaker 5: I thought I was in in Milwauk, Wisconsin, you know,
- 21:01Speaker 5: and I would show up for events five minutes beforehand,
- 21:03Speaker 5: in the in the promotions te yeah, perfect thing would
- 21:07Speaker 5: be immaculate and set up and say loo to everybody
- 21:10Speaker 5: and shake the general managers whatever.
- 21:11Speaker 2: You know.
- 21:12Speaker 5: Now I'm back in Rock Island, Illinois. Man, I come
- 21:14Speaker 5: here an hour and a half before. I get the
- 21:15Speaker 5: fan up with card tables and coozies, and then I
- 21:19Speaker 5: drive the beaver dam and.
- 21:21Speaker 2: What's this tablecloth on? You're looking at that tablecloth on
- 21:24Speaker 2: one hand at a time, like everybody else, you got to
- 21:26Speaker 2: be your own broadcast engineer, set up that one man show.
- 21:30Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a little sense of you know what, there's
- 21:34Speaker 3: a special pride in that too.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Let's be honest, No, there's not. Not for me.
- 21:37Speaker 1: There's promost team just tring back the interns. There's no
- 21:42Speaker 1: pride in it. In fact, it's the opposite of pride
- 21:44Speaker 1: because people see you and they're like, you don't have
- 21:46Speaker 1: people for this for yourself.
- 21:48Speaker 3: I guess for me, I always have done all those
- 21:51Speaker 3: jobs growing up in radio as we most of us
- 21:53Speaker 3: as have I Yeah, right, So my point is you
- 21:56Speaker 3: just in your you never think you're out of that
- 21:58Speaker 3: mentality in some ways, like you know, what makes you different,
- 22:01Speaker 3: armies makes you, That makes you a different, better breed
- 22:05Speaker 3: for me, not because I was never a big star
- 22:08Speaker 3: like Scott Dolphin or when like you know, that's what
- 22:11Speaker 3: my point is.
- 22:12Speaker 2: That's a lie. Big VP of the radio Zach, you
- 22:16Speaker 2: are a big and yeah, okay, even when I had
- 22:19Speaker 2: people like that though I would help pack up exactly
- 22:22Speaker 2: ye diva, but but you know they had their purpose.
- 22:26Speaker 2: It was nice. Yeah it was a blue collar grinder
- 22:29Speaker 2: like you. Yeah, I don't know. And your feelings on
- 22:32Speaker 2: the blue collar people well established you thank you. Yeah,
- 22:35Speaker 2: we all know what you actually think. We're in the
- 22:39Speaker 2: trenches together. Yeah, sure you know. Oh yeah, put a
- 22:42Speaker 2: reflective vest on, pushing buttons and playing gin Blossoms bump songs.
- 22:46Speaker 2: It's like like hanging a drywall. I'm right there with you, guys,
- 22:50Speaker 2: is real. I'm right there with you. There's a lot
- 22:53Speaker 2: of sleep thinking about these bumps.
- 22:56Speaker 5: Yeah, I've done that before, complained about my job, said,
- 23:00Speaker 5: it's not like you're out there swinging a nine pound
- 23:02Speaker 5: hammer just to stay alive every day.
- 23:03Speaker 3: Come on, man, I crawled around on some boards and
- 23:08Speaker 3: desks before and looking.
- 23:09Speaker 5: For well, yeah, I'm about to pluck stuff. Yeah, like
- 23:13Speaker 5: on that trip to Mexico. We've got it tough, Sure
- 23:15Speaker 5: got it.
- 23:16Speaker 2: It is tough.
- 23:17Speaker 5: But the real question is is armor going to third
- 23:19Speaker 5: eye blind tonight?
- 23:20Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, you guys, I've been this and dealing
- 23:22Speaker 2: with this.
- 23:23Speaker 1: Yeah, what'd you decide? Where are you right now as
- 23:26Speaker 1: we sit here at six thirty one.
- 23:27Speaker 2: I just don't think I can do it. I don't.
- 23:29Speaker 3: I hate to say it, guys, I just I'm gonna
- 23:32Speaker 3: I'm gonna be killing myself here with both ways, but
- 23:35Speaker 3: I just don't think I can do it.
- 23:36Speaker 2: Come on stage tonight ten o'clock.
- 23:39Speaker 3: I can't What am I gonna do? Plus I have
- 23:41Speaker 3: a long day Saturday, I have to drive a lot.
- 23:43Speaker 3: So it's just I don't know. I just can't do it.
- 23:46Speaker 2: If you took that power nap, if you've got two
- 23:48Speaker 2: hours this afternoon, you could probably pull it off right.
- 23:51Speaker 3: But it's about Friday morning, it's gonna be a tough thing.
- 23:54Speaker 3: And it's already a busy weekend. My complaining, Billy, this
- 23:57Speaker 3: is not a complaint, but it's already busy weekday. You know,
- 24:00Speaker 3: we're already picking up on extra shift here with something
- 24:03Speaker 3: out with the other stations.
- 24:05Speaker 2: So it's like helping your neighbor. That's a tough thing.
- 24:08Speaker 3: I'm not if I had never seen them before and
- 24:10Speaker 3: I'll never see him again, then.
- 24:12Speaker 2: It'd be different. Sure, but I've seen him seven Yeah.
- 24:16Speaker 2: I love you, Stephen Jenkins.
- 24:18Speaker 3: I'm sure you're gonna put on a great show, and
- 24:19Speaker 3: I'm gonna be like man fool.
- 24:21Speaker 1: But maybe it's crazy, but I find fomo more for
- 24:24Speaker 1: like shows than sporting events, Like oh I didn't go
- 24:27Speaker 1: I was gonna go to the ballpark and I didn't
- 24:29Speaker 1: and someone threw a no hitter or something like, ah,
- 24:31Speaker 1: I should have gone or leaving early is another with
- 24:33Speaker 1: the ale thing, but I find that like the concert
- 24:36Speaker 1: thing is worse because, perfect example, my buddy Andy Turnoff,
- 24:40Speaker 1: one of the founding members of Milwaukee dot Com Friend
- 24:42Speaker 1: of the Program, he I had an extra ticket for
- 24:45Speaker 1: a Tom Petty show at the Marcus.
- 24:47Speaker 2: He's like, I'll go next year. He's there almost every year.
- 24:49Speaker 2: And then Tom Petty passed and I've never seen him.
- 24:51Speaker 2: He's like, God, was I an idiot? I had never
- 24:54Speaker 2: seen him. My friends had seen him a thousand times.
- 24:56Speaker 2: I went to that.
- 24:57Speaker 5: He was there two nights are I went to the
- 24:58Speaker 5: first night but Friday night show obviously so happy that
- 25:01Speaker 5: I did. Oh yeah, phenom arm and I've got your
- 25:04Speaker 5: problem solved right now. Come on, Stephen Jenkins is playing
- 25:07Speaker 5: the American Family Insurance House at two o'clock this afternoon.
- 25:10Speaker 2: That's what I blind. That's free.
- 25:12Speaker 5: You just got to get in the Disney style Turnstiles early. Yeah,
- 25:16Speaker 5: two pm, yep, and you're gonna get all your hits
- 25:20Speaker 5: in acoustic form.
- 25:20Speaker 2: Probably okay, that's something to fit, but you can't get
- 25:23Speaker 2: into that game. Well, yeah, you just got to get
- 25:25Speaker 2: there early.
- 25:26Speaker 5: Line determination and you can also stand outside and listen.
- 25:29Speaker 2: We've done that many times. Well, I'm making a star
- 25:32Speaker 2: like Armon can play the arm and car.
- 25:34Speaker 3: I can listen to my my third eye Blind album
- 25:37Speaker 3: too at home.
- 25:38Speaker 2: That's okay, Buncle the Chef boy r D. Then why
- 25:41Speaker 2: ever go to any show or any game because you
- 25:43Speaker 2: can watch it at home? Yeah, I can watch on No,
- 25:46Speaker 2: I'm being sarcas.
- 25:47Speaker 3: You know. Some people are like, I can just watch
- 25:48Speaker 3: this on TV. It's not the same experience.
- 25:50Speaker 2: I know that.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Yeah, but well here's here's the thing. I know I'm
- 25:54Speaker 1: not going to sleep because I live close. In the
- 25:55Speaker 1: summer years, it's the big Bang.
- 25:57Speaker 2: The fireworks are at nine and then just the sounds
- 26:00Speaker 2: of traffic and sirens and horns and drunk people. Good point.
- 26:04Speaker 2: So I was.
- 26:05Speaker 1: Out of telling Billy I preemptively might have to plan
- 26:08Speaker 1: on broadcasting from state leolsen Maner tomorrow.
- 26:10Speaker 2: That cuts down. Smart move. That gives me.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Another forty five minutes of sleep, and just roll out
- 26:14Speaker 1: of the rack.
- 26:15Speaker 5: And do you hear when you're in bed sleeping, does
- 26:17Speaker 5: it's the summer Fest?
- 26:18Speaker 2: Wake you up? The music? Well, it's hard to fall asleep.
- 26:21Speaker 2: I can yeah, like as long as the be most
- 26:23Speaker 2: age is going, it's almost like I'm there. So also
- 26:27Speaker 2: like you know what's happening, So it's like, man, yeah,
- 26:30Speaker 2: I mean if I turn on the AC and close
- 26:31Speaker 2: the windows, I could probably, you know, depending on how
- 26:35Speaker 2: tired I am. But I want to be awake. You
- 26:38Speaker 2: really wanted to, you could use those sweet I was
- 26:40Speaker 2: thinking about being on the grounds until about nine anyway,
- 26:43Speaker 2: and then I was gonna dip because all due respect
- 26:45Speaker 2: arm and I'm not that big a third eye blind guy. No,
- 26:48Speaker 2: that's fine. Everyone's got their bands.
- 26:49Speaker 5: Yeah, so we you know, the big bang is is
- 26:53Speaker 5: like one big finale to It's short, but it's loud.
- 26:57Speaker 2: They record it and they show it on Channel twelve.
- 27:00Speaker 2: They'll fire it up on TV, fired up on juice
- 27:03Speaker 2: on there. Then they used to do that as well
- 27:05Speaker 2: with the third of July fireworks. Now I don't necessarily
- 27:08Speaker 2: know that one. Last year was a drone show. For that,
- 27:11Speaker 2: I thought that was that was always a slow build.
- 27:13Speaker 5: It's a drone show this year too, Oh come on, yeah,
- 27:15Speaker 5: all right, so the headlining vants tonight late.
- 27:19Speaker 2: Two fifty, we're doing a drone show.
- 27:21Speaker 5: But but Summer Fest and almost just har is it. Yeah,
- 27:26Speaker 5: they're doing a fireworks show on the third of July,
- 27:29Speaker 5: or maybe that's on the fourth and the third of
- 27:31Speaker 5: July is the drone show, I think front.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Yeah, these drone shows better not put phantom fireworks out
- 27:35Speaker 2: of business. I'm all right. All I want to know
- 27:38Speaker 2: is once you get task Lamira, that you're still pulling
- 27:41Speaker 2: off at any gas station, you're gonna still see a
- 27:42Speaker 2: tent full of fireworks. I don't want to see this
- 27:45Speaker 2: ever go away. We're all of the sudden You're like, no,
- 27:47Speaker 2: but sweet, look, I got this e x four fifty
- 27:50Speaker 2: that we're gonna fly around, and there was creative tricks.
- 27:52Speaker 5: With I got the massive flyer of my mailbox yesterday
- 27:55Speaker 5: for you know, you get three hundred dollars of stuff
- 27:57Speaker 5: for one hundred dollars, yes, two fifty for one, all
- 28:01Speaker 5: these huge, massive coupons for fireworks, and all.
- 28:03Speaker 2: You got to do is get one of those really
- 28:04Speaker 2: long candle lighters, because if you use that one that
- 28:07Speaker 2: you bought at the shop, it's gonna be a little
- 28:08Speaker 2: bit dice earing me a little too close to that
- 28:10Speaker 2: than Roman candle.
- 28:12Speaker 1: Tonight, the Dulce tones, in addition to the fire with
- 28:14Speaker 1: the dulcin tones of Charlie Wilson from the Gap end
- 28:16Speaker 1: will be that's the stage closest that I can hear,
- 28:19Speaker 1: But then I don't have tickets to Megan Maroney. I'm
- 28:21Speaker 1: sure that'll be a fun show. She is on fire
- 28:24Speaker 1: right now.
- 28:24Speaker 5: I mean it has been really since she came out
- 28:26Speaker 5: with Tennessee Orange, her first single. She's really good. I
- 28:30Speaker 5: like her songwriting too. She's a talented artist. And that
- 28:34Speaker 5: place is gonna be slam packed. It sold out almost
- 28:36Speaker 5: immediately except for single seats.
- 28:38Speaker 1: So my boy KB is a big fan of Taylor Acorn. Yeah,
- 28:40Speaker 1: that's a five thirty show. And then Third Eye Blind
- 28:43Speaker 1: that's the same stage. But Passion Pit I've seen and
- 28:46Speaker 1: don't need to see. And uh, the Modern English into
- 28:50Speaker 1: Echo and the Bunnyman, that's like that walking into a
- 28:52Speaker 1: college party like that was the soundtrack of my college years.
- 28:57Speaker 2: One of the greatest titles for a of all time.
- 29:00Speaker 5: And of course Modern English that's us I'll stop the
- 29:03Speaker 5: world and melt with you.
- 29:04Speaker 2: And how many food commercials have used that song and
- 29:07Speaker 2: Taco Bell used it. So I'll be strolling around the grounds.
- 29:11Speaker 2: We'll see and I'll see it yeah, but I mean,
- 29:14Speaker 2: if I was going to go, I can't. I'm not
- 29:16Speaker 2: going to sleep till eleven or twelve anyway, so I
- 29:19Speaker 2: might as well be on the ground. You know.
- 29:23Speaker 5: I've said this before and it's still my favorite part
- 29:25Speaker 5: of that festival is discovering bands I've never heard of before.
- 29:29Speaker 5: Maybe it's post sex Nachos today, I've heard good things.
- 29:32Speaker 2: I've heard good things.
- 29:33Speaker 5: Yeah, who was post sex Nachos? Yeah, they're there. There's
- 29:39Speaker 5: a band that I listened to a lot yesterday because
- 29:42Speaker 5: I finally started up scouting a little bit, you know,
- 29:45Speaker 5: and I can't who was it? Oh man, I'll find
- 29:48Speaker 5: it anyway. It's it's a it's a show early evening,
- 29:51Speaker 5: so I'll be able to watch that before I get
- 29:52Speaker 5: back on the freeway. Flyer the Benz at the ul
- 29:55Speaker 5: Line Warehouse Night The Benz, the BNDS.
- 29:57Speaker 2: Good band, good band, opening for thir There you Go.
- 30:00Speaker 3: Is that referring to like the malady that people have
- 30:03Speaker 3: when you surface too soon, when you're you're you're logic,
- 30:07Speaker 3: it's not flawed.
- 30:09Speaker 2: I feel like that's just also bend a string on
- 30:11Speaker 2: a guitar.
- 30:14Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 30:14Speaker 2: I'm still I'm still caught by post sex shows just
- 30:17Speaker 2: like makes sense. Can't have him pre so like if
- 30:20Speaker 2: you're gonna have it as a band name, definitely would
- 30:22Speaker 2: be yeah.
- 30:23Speaker 1: So yeah justice right now, justin telling me, get yourself
- 30:27Speaker 1: some ear plugs. Drew, you got to work for work.
- 30:31Speaker 1: He worked third shift, Yeah, he said it definitely helped.
- 30:34Speaker 1: Like I guess I do wear the sleep mask because
- 30:36Speaker 1: when you go to bed before it's dark out there,
- 30:38Speaker 1: you go, yes, oh I thought you met you wear
- 30:40Speaker 1: the sleep mast that for midday sleep paths.
- 30:43Speaker 2: No, just the kind of no, no, the one that
- 30:45Speaker 2: takes away like skin poor mask. Yeah, yeah, they always
- 30:49Speaker 2: have that. I'm not wearing that doll this women always
- 30:52Speaker 2: had that on playing this what you get. Yeah, we
- 30:57Speaker 2: don't have a skincare routine. Second care routine is not
- 31:00Speaker 2: caring about our skin. We probably should, though, videos with
- 31:03Speaker 2: Harmon would be big, big on the sports radio.
- 31:08Speaker 3: You imagine that's a heck. If you see me doing
- 31:10Speaker 3: a skincare routine video, you know, I'm mad.
- 31:12Speaker 1: So Dolf, you're gonna be off Friday veteran move taking
- 31:16Speaker 1: off the Friday after the summerfest opener.
- 31:18Speaker 2: Kudos to you. Thanks, But when we when we reconvene
- 31:21Speaker 2: on Monday. What do you think the odds are we'll
- 31:22Speaker 2: be talking about a US Open champ. We'll be talking
- 31:25Speaker 2: about the Brewers and the Braves in a possible playoff preview.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Will we be talking about those misty watercolor memories of
- 31:33Speaker 2: the Honest era? You think you honest will be a buck?
- 31:35Speaker 2: Or will it wait until Tuesday?
- 31:37Speaker 1: Will we get a resolution in the next What would
- 31:39Speaker 1: you say, Billy, like seventy two hours or.
- 31:42Speaker 2: Yeah, seventy two hours is a good line of demarcation
- 31:44Speaker 2: because I think if it's gonna happen, it's gonna happen
- 31:46Speaker 2: within the next three days, and then there's gonna be.
- 31:49Speaker 1: A It will So Jimmy has before the draft will
- 31:52Speaker 1: know because the draft is coming.
- 31:53Speaker 2: Up hot, comes up on Tuesday, comes up very very soon,
- 31:56Speaker 2: We're either gonna be on the cusp of Yiannis is gone,
- 32:00Speaker 2: Orianis is already gone.
- 32:01Speaker 5: I think, yeah, that's probably what's going to dominate the
- 32:04Speaker 5: headlines on Monday. I would think, yeah, if Jimmy, if
- 32:06Speaker 5: we take Jimmy Haslm, that is well. And why wouldn't
- 32:08Speaker 5: you take Jimmy Hasslem? Yeah, why wouldn't sure?
- 32:10Speaker 2: Right, the So the other thing is, and I saw
- 32:14Speaker 2: a couple of folks saying this yesterday and letting this one.
- 32:16Speaker 2: The longer this does go, I think it does open
- 32:19Speaker 2: up the door a little bit to we're gonna put
- 32:24Speaker 2: a large sum of money right in front of your
- 32:26Speaker 2: face and you're gonna have to say no. You're gonna
- 32:29Speaker 2: have to have this pen in your hand and say
- 32:31Speaker 2: no to two and seventy five million.
- 32:32Speaker 1: This is and this is where it's just so dumb
- 32:35Speaker 1: that he can't sign that till October.
- 32:36Speaker 2: What's magic about October? Let him sign it August first?
- 32:39Speaker 2: Right or committed? We do say hey, we'll sign What
- 32:42Speaker 2: are we doing? Like why? Like what if? And here's
- 32:45Speaker 2: the thing, what if it's a rug pull?
- 32:46Speaker 1: He agrees to sign, but I can't sign till October first,
- 32:48Speaker 1: and then he has an injury in camp and he's
- 32:50Speaker 1: out for the years.
- 32:51Speaker 2: We're taking that back right on back.
- 32:54Speaker 1: So where's his you know that just it's a dumb,
- 32:57Speaker 1: arbitrary NBA date.
- 32:58Speaker 2: I don't want to know.
- 32:59Speaker 1: I can plain to me why that he's not eligible
- 33:01Speaker 1: to sign that until that date.
- 33:03Speaker 2: It's all just on when he signed the last one
- 33:05Speaker 2: and at some point dumb pulled the last one and
- 33:08Speaker 2: waited for the last one, waited till the last one,
- 33:10Speaker 2: waited for them to go and sign Dame, waited for
- 33:12Speaker 2: them to go and trade for that. So at some
- 33:14Speaker 2: point he's asked them, not time after time after time,
- 33:18Speaker 2: show me you love me, show me you love me,
- 33:20Speaker 2: show me what what we're willing to do. They kind
- 33:22Speaker 2: of have every single time. Now they've been able to
- 33:25Speaker 2: give the bag once again, and we'll see if push
- 33:28Speaker 2: comes to shove, if they show him the door, if
- 33:29Speaker 2: they show him John Moran.
- 33:30Speaker 5: What are the odds if they just simply asked too
- 33:32Speaker 5: much and nobody wants to pull the trigger on a deal.
- 33:35Speaker 2: Pretty good right now, I think some of that is
- 33:37Speaker 2: the case.
- 33:39Speaker 1: Well, and the problem there is that, Okay, so what
- 33:41Speaker 1: is Giannis's value? Because I heard Simmons and Doc Rivers
- 33:44Speaker 1: talk about that and like Doc said, oh, he's not
- 33:47Speaker 1: playing in Europe and he's going to be healthy. Well okay,
- 33:50Speaker 1: but what then what kind of player are you getting
- 33:52Speaker 1: because we haven't seen him at the end of seasons
- 33:54Speaker 1: and in the playoffs the last couple of years. So
- 33:56Speaker 1: there's that calculus.
- 33:57Speaker 2: But the Bucks have to, like I've said, you can't
- 34:00Speaker 2: replace him with the Bucks and his value and his
- 34:04Speaker 2: impact on the city and the love that God.
- 34:06Speaker 1: But you have to understand that you can't replace him.
- 34:08Speaker 1: So but then what's the closest approximation of it?
- 34:11Speaker 2: And that's the question.
- 34:12Speaker 5: Well, you know, the big rumor was I kind of
- 34:15Speaker 5: liked it if it was going to happen, was Karl
- 34:16Speaker 5: Anthony Towns in that package. But that's not happening now,
- 34:19Speaker 5: not after what just happened in New York shot.
- 34:22Speaker 3: No.
- 34:22Speaker 2: And the other thing is you still have to be
- 34:24Speaker 2: the one to live with. You're the guy that traded,
- 34:26Speaker 2: be honest. Yeah, and at some point the one that
- 34:29Speaker 2: pulls the trigger. So that's where I think the Bucks
- 34:31Speaker 2: have been reticent of. There's really no outside of the
- 34:34Speaker 2: self imposed deadline that our that our owner decided to
- 34:38Speaker 2: throw out there at the interview and at the press conference,
- 34:42Speaker 2: there's really nothing holding us back. We could wait again
- 34:45Speaker 2: until the deadline and you could ship him off. The
- 34:47Speaker 2: other thing is nobody's seen you on this Missus shot
- 34:49Speaker 2: now in five months. Yeah, because the only thing they're
- 34:52Speaker 2: showing every single day are highlights. It makes it a
- 34:56Speaker 2: lot and it's not for to say why don't you
- 34:58Speaker 2: wait one more week? Is seeing big fellow run rumble
- 35:01Speaker 2: through some folks. You know what, I know you will
- 35:03Speaker 2: add something him stay healthy. But he's only thirty one, right,
- 35:07Speaker 2: still a young man. Yeah. A lot of a lot
- 35:10Speaker 2: of miles on the tire there is, But you see, guys,
- 35:15Speaker 2: he goes one thousand miles an hour.
- 35:16Speaker 5: That's the biggest difference. You see guys that are much
- 35:18Speaker 5: older than him that are still unbelievable in their careers,
- 35:20Speaker 5: like Steph Curry and k D and Lebron. But because
- 35:25Speaker 5: the fact that he plays so hard every single minute,
- 35:27Speaker 5: I mean, everything is real to him when it comes
- 35:29Speaker 5: to every minute of every NBA game. He doesn't take
- 35:31Speaker 5: him off unless he's taken him off for that's right.
- 35:34Speaker 2: Well, he didn't want to. The team wanted to. Let's
- 35:37Speaker 2: be honest. That's fair to say that, isn't it? Yeah?
- 35:40Speaker 2: Is that fair to say the team wanted not to play.
- 35:43Speaker 2: He wanted to play, Sue for him.
- 35:45Speaker 3: Right, That's that's that's didn't win.
- 35:48Speaker 2: That didn't win the case. Didn't win the case. So
- 35:50Speaker 2: I'm not saying that he was necessarily the one that
- 35:53Speaker 2: was read, but he clearly.
- 35:53Speaker 3: Wanted to play at least I would say, I don't know.
- 35:56Speaker 3: I mean, I think he's still gonna be good for
- 35:58Speaker 3: how long? We don't know, and we can't. It's hard
- 35:59Speaker 3: to injuries. You think he has worked there, but hey,
- 36:03Speaker 3: I don't think he want We always say he doesn't
- 36:06Speaker 3: want to be the one to say I want to trade,
- 36:08Speaker 3: But I also think Horse doesn't want to be the
- 36:09Speaker 3: one to actually have to trade him either. To your point, Billy,
- 36:12Speaker 3: so the only thing is that self imposed deadline by Haslam.
- 36:15Speaker 2: And then he sat around wondering, well, why did he
- 36:17Speaker 2: say that you didn't want to be the bad guy?
- 36:19Speaker 2: Some would say it you a title.
- 36:21Speaker 5: Hey, Jimmy, you go tell everybody you already have kind
- 36:25Speaker 5: of this, give me this Cleveland type background where people
- 36:28Speaker 5: look at you with the side eye.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Anyway, so why don't you go ahead and take this?
- 36:31Speaker 2: Jimmy did keep Miles Garrett and then traded him a
- 36:33Speaker 2: year later. Traded him a year later, like you also
- 36:37Speaker 2: signed him on October first, dru That then means the
- 36:40Speaker 2: next arbitrary date of like March thirteenth, is the first
- 36:43Speaker 2: day that you can trade him. Track the trade conversations
- 36:48Speaker 2: fire right back.
- 36:49Speaker 3: If nothing happens this summer, and he signs that that
- 36:51Speaker 3: that conversation will start up right back again with him.
- 36:54Speaker 1: We will, Dolph. Thanks, have a great time at someer.
- 36:57Speaker 1: So we'll see you down there. I'm sure we will.

- 39:54Speaker 1: Huddle up with you smart, good looking listeners listening to
- 39:58Speaker 1: us on nine twenty Milwaukee, ten seventy in Madison, everywhere
- 40:01Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app, streaming live, Facebook x and the youtubees.
- 40:05Speaker 1: They're getting ready for a victory parade, a Good Morning
- 40:09Speaker 1: America parade pandemonium in New York City with the Knicks
- 40:12Speaker 1: going through the Canyon of Champions and as with all
- 40:15Speaker 1: things in sports, there are complaints because even in a city,
- 40:20Speaker 1: the arguably best city in the world, city that never sleeps,
- 40:24Speaker 1: one of the most famous, let's say that they have
- 40:27Speaker 1: they're limited on space for this parade route, the Canyon
- 40:30Speaker 1: of Champions, the ticker tape. It's gonna be awesome, it's
- 40:33Speaker 1: gonna make great visuals. But there are people cued up
- 40:35Speaker 1: and it's two hours before the parade and they're full.
- 40:38Speaker 1: The pens where people are standing are full, and the
- 40:41Speaker 1: cops are saying, if you're not already down here, you
- 40:43Speaker 1: ain't getting in, ain't And if you're in these pens,
- 40:46Speaker 1: if you leave, you ain't getting back in.
- 40:48Speaker 2: So hopefully brought a water bottle.
- 40:50Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's like the ball drop on New Year's
- 40:54Speaker 3: Eve where you can't go to the bathroom, so people
- 40:56Speaker 3: wear diapers. You have to wear a doll diaper for
- 40:58Speaker 3: this one, because you have to be loaded up and
- 41:00Speaker 3: ready to go, because you've been waiting your whole life
- 41:03Speaker 3: in a lot of these cases to see a parade
- 41:04Speaker 3: like we were when the when the Bucks won, and
- 41:07Speaker 3: uh and Billy came through for me and came in
- 41:09Speaker 3: early so I could go down there. But a championship
- 41:12Speaker 3: parade is always exciting and finally we get an interesting
- 41:14Speaker 3: one compared to last year.
- 41:16Speaker 1: KFC Barstool just posted, I know they like to keep tradition,
- 41:19Speaker 1: and they have all the plaques in city Hall. Is
- 41:21Speaker 1: there because that's where it ends? YadA YadA. I think
- 41:24Speaker 1: it's pretty clear they need to adjust this parade route.
- 41:26Speaker 1: The twenty twenty six Yank twenty twenty six next doing
- 41:28Speaker 1: the same parade as the nineteen thirty Yankees is asinine.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Why is that street smaller now? Or is it tight
- 41:35Speaker 2: or is it Manhattan? I don't even know. It was
- 41:37Speaker 2: very tight visuals and things that are seeing probably more
- 41:40Speaker 2: people that want to take part too. Yeah, but you
- 41:43Speaker 2: can't do it like in the city. You're not gonna
- 41:45Speaker 2: do it in Staten Island. Like what do they want? No,
- 41:47Speaker 2: it's not the New York Marathon or anything, but yeah,
- 41:50Speaker 2: it is what it is.
- 41:51Speaker 3: This is what's exciting about it. You know you're gonna
- 41:53Speaker 3: have you're gonna have to be overflow crowds. Isn't how
- 41:55Speaker 3: people love about these events anyway? When there's shots of
- 41:58Speaker 3: people making brag how many millions of people came and
- 42:02Speaker 3: you can't move and everything like that it's the same
- 42:04Speaker 3: as with anything else.
- 42:06Speaker 2: Like you know, when they had nothing but space in
- 42:09Speaker 2: Oklahoma City, that's the day. Well, or in Milwaukee.
- 42:12Speaker 1: Milwaukee had a great, pretty good route, but there were
- 42:14Speaker 1: probably people that were upset with their you know, their
- 42:17Speaker 1: vantage point.
- 42:18Speaker 2: And then you in Milwaukee ended with the rally, which
- 42:21Speaker 2: was cool. That was Yeah, that was the PJ. Tucker
- 42:23Speaker 2: moment and all that. It was cool. It was coming
- 42:26Speaker 2: up on the fifth anniversary of that, and it seems
- 42:28Speaker 2: like that's longer. See, it seems shorter me. It seems
- 42:30Speaker 2: way longer to me than five years, let's see.
- 42:33Speaker 3: And then Chicago would always do the whole Grand Park thing.
- 42:35Speaker 3: They had their celebration there. I think the Milwaukee parade
- 42:39Speaker 3: route was interesting because it was there was part there
- 42:41Speaker 3: were definitely parts where was thin and the buses were
- 42:44Speaker 3: kind of moving quick, quicker than I think we're getting.
- 42:48Speaker 3: But then when they turned from Wisconsin Vegas that's right, Relly,
- 42:51Speaker 3: they did. But when they turned from Wisconsin down to
- 42:54Speaker 3: Water there was then a thick mass of people on
- 42:57Speaker 3: that corner and that was what the best visual was
- 42:59Speaker 3: of the honest up the troll.
- 43:00Speaker 1: Yeah, in my opinion, that was pretty cool. So at
- 43:04Speaker 1: six am in New York. They started queuing up. Yeah,
- 43:07Speaker 1: they started, and they started chancing a beautiful, beautiful so
- 43:11Speaker 1: and we just asked to see, now the villain. They
- 43:14Speaker 1: wanted him to be the face of the league, an
- 43:16Speaker 1: you know, European guy, interesting cat, international appeal. And now
- 43:20Speaker 1: if he's the villain, it doesn't hurt. It's not bad
- 43:21Speaker 1: for business either, not a bad thing for business.
- 43:24Speaker 2: No, and especially Drew in a time where I don't
- 43:26Speaker 2: believe and you know we you've seen it now for
- 43:29Speaker 2: eight years, they haven't had a repeat champion. They haven't
- 43:31Speaker 2: had a dynasty. It's a sport that's been predicated on
- 43:34Speaker 2: there being a throne to shoot at, one to go after.
- 43:38Speaker 2: And in the nineties, whether it was obviously Jordan just
- 43:41Speaker 2: out of the Pistons and the Celtics, and when Jordan
- 43:44Speaker 2: stepped away to go play baseball, the Rockets, like you
- 43:46Speaker 2: always have the one thing to shoot for.
- 43:48Speaker 8: Uh.
- 43:49Speaker 2: Now they shoot at Wemby because I think there's a
- 43:51Speaker 2: lot of folks that are going to be trying to
- 43:52Speaker 2: hate on that cat for a long time. And and
- 43:55Speaker 2: part of it also is a tough this next team
- 43:59Speaker 2: to something that I definitely didn't anticipate there would ever
- 44:02Speaker 2: be something that made a New York team very likable,
- 44:06Speaker 2: and that that was a block of space real estate
- 44:10Speaker 2: that I did not anticipate would ever be opened. But
- 44:13Speaker 2: I didn't think that was gonna be a spot. Instead,
- 44:15Speaker 2: they're one of the more likable teams, and Jalen Brunson
- 44:18Speaker 2: is one of the more likable guys in the league.
- 44:20Speaker 2: They have a great story the father son connection that
- 44:23Speaker 2: it's he came and played this way against the worst
- 44:28Speaker 2: possible team for him in that hero arc that the
- 44:32Speaker 2: NBA was so desperately waiting to be able to throw
- 44:34Speaker 2: upon him. They would have done this against Lebron five
- 44:36Speaker 2: years ago. People still would have loved him, throw him
- 44:39Speaker 2: against the floor like he did to brunts, and people
- 44:41Speaker 2: would have been celebrating that and waiting for more of that.
- 44:44Speaker 2: Instead did it to the guy that we all like
- 44:46Speaker 2: and the little guy that now it looks like you're
- 44:48Speaker 2: picking on. Get this frenchman out of here toast this
- 44:52Speaker 2: come on talking.
- 44:53Speaker 3: It is pretty interesting how much that plays into it.
- 44:56Speaker 3: Like I'd say, Wemby was pretty likable. Obviously the villain
- 45:00Speaker 3: thing turned all that stuff, but I think he still is.
- 45:02Speaker 3: But then it's like we sent we tend to attract
- 45:05Speaker 3: more gravitate towards the American stars more, and that's been
- 45:08Speaker 3: a problem for the NBA and the NBA fans is
- 45:10Speaker 3: international versus NBA stars.
- 45:12Speaker 2: So Brunson, how all that change things?
- 45:15Speaker 3: Because Brunson is legit right now obviously as a star,
- 45:17Speaker 3: and he's obviously Americans. So Mike Witt on the YouTube
- 45:20Speaker 3: comments uh said, I might be the minority, but I
- 45:23Speaker 3: think Wenby's my new favorite player, only if you honest,
- 45:26Speaker 3: isn't a buck effort star. I just love that he
- 45:28Speaker 3: has no love for the opponent. Sports seems more hate
- 45:30Speaker 3: in my opinion. Now, that's the flip side of it, right,
- 45:35Speaker 3: So some people will, yeah, we'll value the fact that
- 45:37Speaker 3: he like said, no, I'm not shaking hands, I'm not
- 45:40Speaker 3: doing this, I'm not doing you know, because there were
- 45:43Speaker 3: a bunch even though Isaiah gets flacked now for not
- 45:45Speaker 3: doing that with George, there were a lot of Pistons
- 45:47Speaker 3: fans back then that love that sort of.
- 45:48Speaker 2: Bad boys kind of imagery. True, it was the lean
- 45:53Speaker 2: into it. Well, you wanted to have something they needed,
- 45:57Speaker 2: they needed to have something otherwise, you know, Tea Troy
- 45:59Speaker 2: Pascal was just I think there's uh there, there's a
- 46:02Speaker 2: lot of love in sports, and that was also something
- 46:05Speaker 2: that was celebrated about Giannis for quite some time. I
- 46:07Speaker 2: don't need to work out with these guys. I don't
- 46:09Speaker 2: need to go build some super team. Yeah. I don't
- 46:11Speaker 2: go to man some trade to some place and big
- 46:14Speaker 2: market to go and get new stars to come play
- 46:16Speaker 2: with me until I lose for five years after I win. Now,
- 46:19Speaker 2: I will do it now, I'll do it. Yeah. And
- 46:23Speaker 2: part of the reason the lost because Giannis was hurt
- 46:24Speaker 2: a lot. Yeah, there's a lot of self cruel irony
- 46:28Speaker 2: in there. Yeah, the cruel irony of it.
- 46:30Speaker 1: And we should be prepared. I think most people are
- 46:32Speaker 1: now if Jannis gets traded. Thanks for the memories. It
- 46:35Speaker 1: was awesome, great ride. Yeah, we'll see when you come back.
- 46:39Speaker 1: Hopefully we get something back. But we should be prepared
- 46:41Speaker 1: because far have left. Roger left, Paul Malder left back
- 46:44Speaker 1: in the day, you know, Prince Fielder left, DC Sabbathia left,
- 46:48Speaker 1: like you get these heroes and you only it's only
- 46:51Speaker 1: a temporary arrangement.
- 46:52Speaker 2: Yeah, and Prince, I'm glad you throw that one in there, Drew,
- 46:54Speaker 2: because Prince was for for me as the pair Shaped Youth.
- 46:58Speaker 2: That was a tough one, but you knew that that
- 47:00Speaker 2: one was kind of final, like that one was happening
- 47:02Speaker 2: at the end of twenty eleven, and they didn't preemptively
- 47:05Speaker 2: trade him. They wrote it out, tried to win with him.
- 47:07Speaker 2: We're doing everything we can. We're actually going to the
- 47:10Speaker 2: h you know, definition of pornography. We're gonna do it
- 47:13Speaker 2: because you're gonna wake up on a Sunday morning and
- 47:16Speaker 2: Lorenzo Caine and I'll see the Escabar and a couple
- 47:19Speaker 2: other folks are gonna go to Kansas City. We're gonna
- 47:21Speaker 2: get a cy Young Award winner as all in as
- 47:23Speaker 2: you possibly could go, and you let the chips fall
- 47:25Speaker 2: where they may. I think that's the tough part about
- 47:28Speaker 2: where at least I am with the honest deal. The
- 47:31Speaker 2: Bucks have done everything in anything possible to contend. They
- 47:36Speaker 2: have done everything they could outside of spending seventy million
- 47:39Speaker 2: dollars or whatever it would have been to have PJ.
- 47:41Speaker 2: Tucker on the team. When they lose to the Boston Celtics.
- 47:45Speaker 2: You still had them at home up three too. Like
- 47:48Speaker 2: I don't I don't fault the roster construction for that deal.
- 47:52Speaker 2: Somebody needed to be able to match Jason Tatum's forty
- 47:54Speaker 2: six in game six, So there's a part. And then
- 47:58Speaker 2: you had to get you know, Grant Williams in Games
- 48:00Speaker 2: seven where he knocks down seven triples and that's why
- 48:02Speaker 2: you get bounced like this is this is the part
- 48:04Speaker 2: of it. So I struggle to say that there's blame
- 48:08Speaker 2: on the Bucks side and when the grass wasn't as
- 48:12Speaker 2: green as you thought it was, I'll end up getting going.
- 48:15Speaker 2: So like it happens before, He's not the first guy
- 48:17Speaker 2: to do it. I think the the one part of it,
- 48:19Speaker 2: and I wonder if there will be some Bucks fans
- 48:21Speaker 2: that do that. Everything that you kind of were told
- 48:24Speaker 2: wasn't gonna happen. Everything you told was different about Johannest
- 48:28Speaker 2: did end up kind of being true. Like it you
- 48:31Speaker 2: end up getting at the end of the day, it's
- 48:34Speaker 2: not gonna work here, Well, we're gonna go somewhere else.
- 48:36Speaker 2: We're like a lot of NBA superstars do, and those
- 48:39Speaker 2: were villainized. This one at this point hasn't been because
- 48:43Speaker 2: he hasn't been public about it. But I think we've
- 48:45Speaker 2: seen behind closed doors and seen too many of the
- 48:48Speaker 2: tea leaves to kind of know what what this has been.
- 48:50Speaker 2: By the way, Yannis posted a picture of Nike shoes yesterday.
- 48:54Speaker 2: I don't know this is the next line. There wasn't
- 48:55Speaker 2: really an explanation. All white, but they're pretty sweet. They're looking,
- 49:00Speaker 2: oh yeah, look pretty fresh. All white.
- 49:02Speaker 3: The Kaitlyn Clarkshoe dropped that's a big story too, So
- 49:05Speaker 3: that's kind of interesting.
- 49:06Speaker 2: I don't know if he just he is also very
- 49:08Speaker 2: much enjoying this. You can tell online. Yeah, you can
- 49:11Speaker 2: tell he's enjoying being the uh, being the girl that
- 49:14Speaker 2: everybody's waiting to ask the problem like and and good
- 49:16Speaker 2: for him, you should like, he waited a long time
- 49:18Speaker 2: for this. Wasn't recruited. Uh, we didn't go to play
- 49:20Speaker 2: college basketball, so it didn't go through the AAU circuit
- 49:23Speaker 2: of that. Now is his moment where he gets to
- 49:26Speaker 2: be the the banter of the town and and he's
- 49:29Speaker 2: soaking it in. He hadn't calmed any of those conversations
- 49:32Speaker 2: down at all. He could have tampened all of this
- 49:34Speaker 2: down and has n't for a reason. The Freak eight
- 49:37Speaker 2: and Wolf Gray those are nice.
- 49:40Speaker 3: Oh man, I wish you would looking Shoot now, I'm
- 49:42Speaker 3: gonna have to like my favorite, the honest edition.
- 49:44Speaker 2: He's not gonna be a buck. This is terrible.
- 49:46Speaker 3: And but Billy, I almost forgot about Grant Williams. Things
- 49:48Speaker 3: were putting that back in my head.
- 49:49Speaker 2: That's that. That's trauma right there. Oh man, all right,
- 49:54Speaker 2: So time for a little Who's Hot Who's Not?
- 49:56Speaker 1: Brought to us by Donovan Jorgenson Heating and Cooling Donovan
- 49:58Speaker 1: Jorgenson employee owned for four years. They dominate the way
- 50:02Speaker 1: we do. So shout out to Donovan Jorgenson. Billy, who
- 50:04Speaker 1: he got?
- 50:04Speaker 2: Who's hot? Who's Not? I was driving right behind at
- 50:06Speaker 2: Donovan Jorgenson truck yesterday. That was a welcome to welcome site.
- 50:11Speaker 2: Who's in the hot category? Well, his team did just
- 50:15Speaker 2: win a title. He's gonna have the first parade as
- 50:17Speaker 2: the owner of the team for the New York Knicks.
- 50:19Speaker 2: But uh huh. James Dolan walked himself into some hot
- 50:23Speaker 2: water yesterday as he appeared on WFAN rocking a sweet
- 50:26Speaker 2: Knicks cap celebrating the championship. Thought it was gonna be
- 50:29Speaker 2: a crowning achievement instead, Well, mister Dolan, how are you
- 50:33Speaker 2: gonna do it again? Next year? He said? We will.
- 50:35Speaker 2: We cannot get into the second apron. I don't know
- 50:38Speaker 2: if we'll be able to do. We're gonna stretch. There's
- 50:41Speaker 2: certain things in the NBA you cannot do that will
- 50:43Speaker 2: be suicidal to do. One of them is the second Apron,
- 50:46Speaker 2: one of the something that the Bucks found themselves in
- 50:48Speaker 2: quite a bit. So James Dolan thought he was gonna
- 50:50Speaker 2: go through for his victory lab there on. Wfan, No,
- 50:53Speaker 2: can't do, Sorry, Bud, this is not a support group,
- 50:57Speaker 2: as wfan let him know quickly yesterday, and he jumped
- 51:00Speaker 2: himself right back into some hot hot water. He gotta
- 51:03Speaker 2: love being able to see that outstanding. Also in the
- 51:07Speaker 2: hot category for the well, the New York Mets roll
- 51:11Speaker 2: through with Bob Bashett three for four yesterday. He has
- 51:14Speaker 2: been on a tear as of late, and coincides with
- 51:18Speaker 2: he's got five consecutive games of multi hits now. It
- 51:21Speaker 2: sounds like Bob Bashett will opt out of his player
- 51:24Speaker 2: option coming up this year, and also he must think
- 51:28Speaker 2: his name's quite hot Drew. Speaking of player options, Trey
- 51:31Speaker 2: Young is apparently declining one that I was gonna self
- 51:35Speaker 2: report that he was going to accept forty eight point
- 51:38Speaker 2: nine seven million dollars to play basketball for the Washington
- 51:43Speaker 2: Wizards in twenty six twenty seven. Instead, Young will decline
- 51:47Speaker 2: that he will become a free agent on Monday. According
- 51:50Speaker 2: to Mark Spears of Ndscape and ESPN, how about that
- 51:54Speaker 2: forty nine million dollars guaranteed walking away? We'll see now.
- 51:57Speaker 2: Apparently the Wizards are still in the conversation. They tray
- 52:00Speaker 2: for him last year from the Hawks, and I had
- 52:04Speaker 2: no clue what the Wizards were gonna do. I didn't
- 52:07Speaker 2: know if they were actually planning on having the number
- 52:09Speaker 2: one overall pick and Trey Young and Anthony Davis. He said, actually,
- 52:13Speaker 2: I'm just gonna help you guys out with that real quick.
- 52:15Speaker 2: I'm gonna get a bout of here. I'm gonna get
- 52:17Speaker 2: out of the nation's capital. Don't need to be a
- 52:19Speaker 2: part of this whatsoever. Also in the hot category, you
- 52:22Speaker 2: talked about it a lot this morning, Cooper Pratt two
- 52:24Speaker 2: for four, finally gets himself his first RBI, his first run,
- 52:28Speaker 2: scored a couple of k's doesn't matter, and christianellig and
- 52:31Speaker 2: Jackson Curio hot with a each with a homer in
- 52:34Speaker 2: the game yesterday. If you went to the Potawatamy sportsbook
- 52:36Speaker 2: and put that together as a little two piece parlay
- 52:39Speaker 2: on a home run parlay. You are very much hot
- 52:42Speaker 2: coming up this morning. Hey, a big not for you guys.
- 52:45Speaker 3: On a day after Messi scores three and Mbope scores too,
- 52:49Speaker 3: Christiano Ronaldo helped scoreless again, and it looks like Portugal
- 52:54Speaker 3: has a little Ronaldo problem that's cropping up again.
- 52:57Speaker 2: And they had a draw yesterday with Congo, which they
- 53:00Speaker 2: were heavily favored. Congo scored late too.
- 53:02Speaker 3: Yeah, they were heavily favored to beat them, had a draw,
- 53:06Speaker 3: and Portugal struggling and their star Christiano Ronaldo hasn't scored
- 53:11Speaker 3: in his last five World Cup matches, and in Portugal's
- 53:16Speaker 3: past four matches in major competition, Ronaldo has played three
- 53:18Speaker 3: ninety six of a possible four and twenty minutes and
- 53:21Speaker 3: Portugal scored just once.
- 53:22Speaker 2: In the past two years.
- 53:23Speaker 3: In all competitions, They've averaged one point nine goals per
- 53:26Speaker 3: game when he started, in two point eight when he didn't,
- 53:29Speaker 3: and then, of course that average was plumped up by
- 53:32Speaker 3: a nine to one win over Armenia last November.
- 53:34Speaker 2: But anyway, yeah, you got to someone has to the
- 53:39Speaker 2: Ronaldo problem.
- 53:42Speaker 3: Propping up as they're calling it here for Portugal, a
- 53:45Speaker 3: favorite in this World Cup, but well one of the favorites, but.
- 53:48Speaker 2: They are their biggest star is struggling.
- 53:50Speaker 3: And in an era and in a world where we're
- 53:52Speaker 3: always fighting for goat narratives, the messy goat people are
- 53:55Speaker 3: loving this because the Ronaldo goat people are always fighting them.
- 53:59Speaker 2: And Ronaldo been struggling and he hasn't scored, So there
- 54:03Speaker 2: you go.
- 54:03Speaker 3: I would say he's in the not category right now,
- 54:05Speaker 3: and Portugal is in the not category, but especially Ronaldo
- 54:08Speaker 3: who has not been scoring lately.
- 54:10Speaker 2: Uh for Portugal.
- 54:12Speaker 1: Harry Kane, Yes, today the three Lions man Harry Kane
- 54:16Speaker 1: had a goal. He came up big, The Three Lions
- 54:18Speaker 1: got overcame their nerves down in Texas and and uh,
- 54:21Speaker 1: you know, put a statement win together scoring four goals.
- 54:23Speaker 2: So first game today at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Georgia,
- 54:28Speaker 2: South Africa and a couple of teams that had some
- 54:30Speaker 2: draws early. Then they go out to Los Angeles, Switzerland
- 54:34Speaker 2: against Bosnia. Throw the records out of those two get
- 54:37Speaker 2: together and your accent there, yeah, billy stuff.
- 54:41Speaker 9: The Equaliza, the Equaliza has gata has put it in
- 54:45Speaker 9: the back of the net against Canada and broken the
- 54:48Speaker 9: hearts of everybody at p Seed Place in Vancouver.
- 54:53Speaker 1: What a classic? Great, What a classic. So that's gonna
- 54:56Speaker 1: be good. So that's who's out. Who's not Donovan Jorgans
- 54:58Speaker 1: and shout out? Do we have a Superhero the day?
- 55:00Speaker 1: Anybody like that? So I think it's almost got to
- 55:02Speaker 1: be retroactively Jalen Brunson, because they're having a Jalen Brunson
- 55:05Speaker 1: lookalike contest in New York and there's hundreds of dudes
- 55:07Speaker 1: walking out.
- 55:08Speaker 2: That's like Jalen bruns I was gonna throw Daniel Espino
- 55:11Speaker 2: out from last night's Brewer game. Rarely does a Hero
- 55:14Speaker 2: of the Day come on the visiting team. However, He
- 55:17Speaker 2: made his debut yesterday, major league debut after being a
- 55:21Speaker 2: twenty fourth overall selection in the twenty nineteen MLB draft.
- 55:27Speaker 2: Twenty five years old, battled through three different arm injuries,
- 55:31Speaker 2: including twice having to get shut down with shoulder capsule
- 55:35Speaker 2: repair inter capsule repairs. Last night, came out, got his
- 55:39Speaker 2: major league debut. Sadly was a little bit better than
- 55:43Speaker 2: we would have anticipated. Grandma wasn't even ready for it.
- 55:47Speaker 2: They kept showing the Espino family on the broadcast when
- 55:50Speaker 2: he pitched the seventh in and cleaned three up, three down,
- 55:52Speaker 2: two strikeouts in there as well. Grandma was eating ice cream,
- 55:55Speaker 2: Mom was crying in the crowd, and Daniel Aspino finally
- 55:58Speaker 2: got his big league moment. Yesterday. That was cool. I
- 56:00Speaker 2: saw that, loved it.
- 56:01Speaker 3: Also a really quick shout out yesterday Travis Diener. I
- 56:04Speaker 3: saw this on Carly Morda's story and jump for Travis
- 56:09Speaker 3: Diener had his special basketball camp in Mechwan and surprise
- 56:13Speaker 3: special guest to Wayne Wade. So that was cool to
- 56:15Speaker 3: see the Wayne Wade showing up in Mechwan for Travis
- 56:18Speaker 3: Deener's camp. Carly had a little bit of sound with
- 56:20Speaker 3: them and interviews and stuff, really great stuff if you
- 56:22Speaker 3: go find it. And it's just good to see those
- 56:25Speaker 3: two continuing the relationship, staying close through all these years.
- 56:28Speaker 2: I love it, you know, warms my goggles, you know,
- 56:30Speaker 2: as you know, Harmon's heart and seeing Dwayne Wade hanging
- 56:34Speaker 2: out with this boys from Marquette. But nothing warms our
- 56:37Speaker 2: heart like seeing the superheroes from Colonel Electric coming out
- 56:40Speaker 2: and saving and making your lives a lot better and
- 56:42Speaker 2: sometimes saving your bacon whether it's by installing a standby
- 56:46Speaker 2: generator lighting installation helping you put some extra money in
