1:35
Speaker 3: Beers tight end.

Speaker 1: And yeah, hell of a week, right, I better believe it. Yeah.

Speaker 3: And he's a good, good player too.
1:47
Speaker 4: There are so many good prep volleyball players in this
1:50
Speaker 4: state now, it is just incredible. Obviously, we know what
1:53
Speaker 4: University Wisconsin does. They're a national telecntender every year, Marquet's
1:57
Speaker 4: program has gotten better. So I mean that's pretty cool.
1:59
Speaker 4: But yeah, six beers. Now, I've never ordered a women's
2:02
Speaker 4: volleyball jersey for myself, but maybe they're gonna teaches they
2:05
Speaker 4: got it all for you.
2:06
Speaker 3: I might have to now God.
2:08
Speaker 1: According to the Nil store top selling athletes in the
2:11
Speaker 1: Nil store last week, she was number seven.
2:14
Speaker 3: That's development.
2:15
Speaker 4: That's where I'm not surprised if more kids start legally
2:18
Speaker 4: changing their name to get more Nils. I mean, because
2:20
Speaker 4: that's just a brilliant marketing move. I mean she gets
2:22
Speaker 4: a piece of that, right.
2:23
Speaker 5: Yeah.
2:24
Speaker 4: Yeah, So like come on, like all of our teammates
2:26
Speaker 4: are probably jealous. Like, I don't know if you're the
2:28
Speaker 4: best player of this team, but you get the coolest names.
2:29
Speaker 4: Everyone's buying your.
2:30
Speaker 1: Jersey, I said. In the Journal Central story, she said,
2:32
Speaker 1: I had my number all throughout high school. I didn't
2:34
Speaker 1: even think of it. Then the tweet came out. I
2:36
Speaker 1: was like, oh, that might be a good coincidence. So
2:39
Speaker 1: the six beers, like there's gonna be people supporting her,
2:42
Speaker 1: and just the fact that it's six beers I got.
2:46
Speaker 2: I gotta be honest, I'm I'm going to go Marquet
2:48
Speaker 2: dot com. Right now, I'm buying one I like out
2:50
Speaker 2: of the different things. Then I'm with you.
2:53
Speaker 3: I'm in. I'm fully in.
2:54
Speaker 2: And if you see any kind of name that gives
2:58
Speaker 2: you that kind of that tag, that's a tough thing
3:00
Speaker 2: to be able to walk away from. Also, how many
3:04
Speaker 2: times are you gonna walk down campus somebody's gonna be
3:07
Speaker 2: rocking the six beer shirt and they're gonna have no
3:10
Speaker 2: clue that that's sounds.
3:11
Speaker 4: If you like a stock I mean you next thing, yesterday,
3:14
Speaker 4: you were just a slinger out next thing, you know,
3:16
Speaker 4: you're walking down Wisconsin ed when everyone's wearing your shirt.
3:18
Speaker 3: But i'd watch how you say, just a slinger very distinct.
3:23
Speaker 1: The NIL rules don't let you take money from alcohol, tobacco,
3:26
Speaker 1: or gambling. Okay, and she's not twenty one, but her
3:30
Speaker 1: name is her name, her number is her number. Of
3:32
Speaker 1: people want to say, let's have a six Beers shirt.
3:35
Speaker 1: It's fun, it's hilarious.
3:37
Speaker 3: Maybe heabby plays them, can do a kick.
3:39
Speaker 2: Now I would say, uh, Marquet Spirits shop. We need
3:43
Speaker 2: to we need this as prominently featured as anything, like
3:46
Speaker 2: when you go to the athletics, this needs to be
3:50
Speaker 2: the first thing that you see. If you know that
3:52
Speaker 2: you're gonna be selling something this good, you need to
3:55
Speaker 2: be jumping on and that needs to be front and center.
3:59
Speaker 2: All due respect to Alla Motts, number twelve of the
4:03
Speaker 2: lacrosse team, who's sweatshird came up first. When I went
4:06
Speaker 2: to the Nil store, I.
4:08
Speaker 1: Saw a quick link to merchandise for the fiftieth anniversary
4:11
Speaker 1: of the nineteen seventy seven championship.
4:14
Speaker 3: With stuff, there's always good time.
4:15
Speaker 4: Whenever I'm down there, I try and whip through the
4:17
Speaker 4: spirit shop. Of course, go online as well, there's always
4:20
Speaker 4: some nice stuff there.
4:20
Speaker 1: And well, now when you go to the Spiritual hoodie
4:24
Speaker 1: for ninety two bucks, I mean, come on.
4:25
Speaker 2: Well, Armand knows the Jordan hoodie that's more onder the
4:28
Speaker 2: clearance rack. So do you go to the nil store
4:30
Speaker 2: first or do you go to the clearance rack store?
4:33
Speaker 4: Nil store is that that's mostly online like that they'll
4:36
Speaker 4: make it up for you any order. I don't think
4:38
Speaker 4: they rack put them on a lot bunch of the rack.
4:40
Speaker 4: It might I can't remember, but I go to the
4:42
Speaker 4: clearance rack first. Yes, to answer your question, but well,
4:45
Speaker 4: I don't know. Drew and I had that Nike versus
4:47
Speaker 4: Champion argument. So I'm not really sure what's what's more expensive, but.
4:51
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, our argument was me pointing out that Champion
4:54
Speaker 1: is becoming in the fashion sense, it's more popular and
4:58
Speaker 1: common street on the streets. Army, I gotta get on
5:00
Speaker 1: the street.
5:01
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I and obviously.
5:04
Speaker 1: Foo Champions like a cheap brand. It's like, well they
5:06
Speaker 1: do like fashion collaps with Supreme and they're like they're
5:09
Speaker 1: a targler than Nike these days.
5:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. Okay, that's that's a.
5:13
Speaker 1: Big seas the big logo sea. Yeah you're not.
5:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, But my point, I don't see anybody rocking the
5:19
Speaker 2: old school, see, but if they do, I love to
5:21
Speaker 2: know it. I like this one of the Marquette scripts
5:24
Speaker 2: sweatshirt across the front with the six beers right on
5:27
Speaker 2: the back.
5:28
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. There is some cool stuff.
5:29
Speaker 2: There's some phenomenal stuff that we have here in Miali
5:32
Speaker 2: beer shirt that I'm picking up here.
5:33
Speaker 4: And she's a mathematical economics major, all right, so none
5:36
Speaker 4: of your you know, she's not like.
5:38
Speaker 3: She's gonna put the money to good use.
5:40
Speaker 4: She's not like trying to just roll in and get
5:42
Speaker 4: you know, for back of the lack of a better
5:44
Speaker 4: example and a j store, you know, just trying to
5:47
Speaker 4: get in and get out. But I do like that
5:49
Speaker 4: we got six foot pin hitters now, Marquette. Those used
5:51
Speaker 4: to be all, you know, only reserved for the big ten.
5:54
Speaker 4: But Markett's volleyball team is getting six foot pin hitters.
5:56
Speaker 4: That's what I'm talking about.
5:58
Speaker 3: Let's go.
5:59
Speaker 1: I would like that a little.
6:01
Speaker 3: We need to make sure that we're putting men's clothing
6:04
Speaker 3: in here, too.
6:04
Speaker 1: For the size is not That's what I'm saying, is
6:06
Speaker 1: it only That's what I'm saying.
6:07
Speaker 3: Oh no, there's men's side.
6:08
Speaker 2: Okay, good, But when you are dumb and you're looking
6:12
Speaker 2: at it and says women's volleyball, then you immediately think
6:14
Speaker 2: that it's a women's cut shirt. Again, when when the
6:18
Speaker 2: intelligent shopper is actually doing the thing, then you can
6:22
Speaker 2: figure it out. I love this, Drew, and I appreciate it,
6:24
Speaker 2: and Marquette is gonna appreciate my forty bucks because I'm debating,
6:27
Speaker 2: I'm I'm debating. I'm debating between the big Marquette logo
6:32
Speaker 2: or Marquette across the chest.
6:34
Speaker 3: But that's definitely gonna have something here.
6:36
Speaker 4: I think I get ten percent off because I'm gonna alumni,
6:39
Speaker 4: but I don't know if I have I can do
6:40
Speaker 4: that online?
6:41
Speaker 1: Oh hey, yeah, I don't know.
6:42
Speaker 2: Let's have arms I hook us up, which I was
6:44
Speaker 2: gonna say, Can I use your discount? Or is that
6:46
Speaker 2: gonna I don't. I don't want you to get in trouble,
6:48
Speaker 2: so I don't want to.
6:48
Speaker 3: What are they gonna do take away my status? Okay,
6:51
Speaker 3: I got the degree. But here's my thing.
6:53
Speaker 4: If I think you have to use your alumni card
6:54
Speaker 4: in person, I don't think there's a way to enter
6:56
Speaker 4: it online, Billy. But and then with with with an
6:59
Speaker 4: Iel stuff, you probably have to order online, so you
7:01
Speaker 4: won't be able to say the three bucks or whatever
7:03
Speaker 4: four bucks Statman Steve.
7:04
Speaker 2: I graduated from Slinger High School where ally Beers went.
7:07
Speaker 2: Didn't even realize it. She was born in two thousand
7:09
Speaker 2: and eight. I graduated from Slinger in two.
7:11
Speaker 1: Thousand So what that's okay, we're all getting older.
7:15
Speaker 3: That's how it happens.
7:16
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, you blink and you realize, wait
7:18
Speaker 2: a second, what there's two Brewers that are older than me.
7:21
Speaker 3: That's it? How did that happen?
7:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's one player on the Packers that was born
7:25
Speaker 2: in the eighties. How the heck did that happen?
7:27
Speaker 4: I remember when I remember when like Corey Hart was
7:29
Speaker 4: like the first guy I realized was younger than me
7:32
Speaker 4: when I was watching a Brewer game and that really
7:34
Speaker 4: freaked me out. And that was like what twenty years ago,
7:37
Speaker 4: you know what I mean. So it's kind of funny
7:39
Speaker 4: how that works. So that's pretty cool. Yeah, like I mentioned,
7:41
Speaker 4: I know, you got to mention on the Ben Mallor
7:44
Speaker 4: show this morning. Uh cool, you got to mention on
7:47
Speaker 4: the Ben Malor show.
7:48
Speaker 2: She's our current electric superhero of the day arm And
7:51
Speaker 2: there's levels to the awards and if anybody, if they're
7:54
Speaker 2: going to celebrate anything around uh Shrader Hall, that is.
7:58
Speaker 4: That where they would be potentially that she Yeah, a
8:01
Speaker 4: freshman probably is in one of the other dorms. Trader
8:05
Speaker 4: was a sophomore dorm usually, but she could be a
8:07
Speaker 4: Trader possibly no longer was the only one Cormick rests.
8:11
Speaker 2: And piece the commons is the big one. That could
8:14
Speaker 2: be McKay hall. So now you're just flexing your ra muscles,
8:18
Speaker 2: but shout out was McCormick. So it's yeah, they have
8:22
Speaker 2: these all the way up, Billy, all the way up
8:23
Speaker 2: to four XL.
8:25
Speaker 3: Scout it out. I'm figuring.
8:26
Speaker 2: I'm figuring out which one I like more. The fun now, Uh,
8:30
Speaker 2: you guys can correct me if I'm wrong. The the
8:32
Speaker 2: M the new m U logo that Marquette has, that
8:36
Speaker 2: one in there, is that the only lasting piece from
8:40
Speaker 2: the Marquette Gold era.
8:41
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, no one talks about that, William. Yes, it's
8:45
Speaker 3: the only thing.
8:46
Speaker 2: It's the only thing that lived on from those eight
8:48
Speaker 2: days where they were the Marquette Gold.
8:50
Speaker 4: Correct and Marquette was had really been searching in the
8:52
Speaker 4: wilderness for like a standard M logo that to use.
8:56
Speaker 4: I mean, over the years they really couldn't find when
8:58
Speaker 4: there was other m's in it. M you is that
9:00
Speaker 4: we're kind of being used but didn't catch on. But
9:02
Speaker 4: when they switched to Gold, they also entrouced the new
9:04
Speaker 4: the monogram logo and it stuck really well because it's
9:08
Speaker 4: a good logo and I'm like, well, at least something positive.
9:11
Speaker 3: Came out of it. Dwayne didn't have a problem with
9:12
Speaker 3: that one. No, I got a call on that. Remember
9:14
Speaker 3: I gotta have a got called.
9:16
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, Gold obviously was roundly criticized and and
9:19
Speaker 4: the scrap heap of history as a disaster. But the
9:21
Speaker 4: monogram is a good one. It look looks good, and
9:23
Speaker 4: it's been a good logo for a long time.
9:25
Speaker 3: So logo.
9:27
Speaker 1: If I may raise one point, I don't want to
9:30
Speaker 1: deter you or squash your enthusiasm. But the hoodie, given
9:34
Speaker 1: its design in order to see beer six. If the
9:38
Speaker 1: hood is down, we're gonna be covering it out. You're
9:41
Speaker 1: you're spot on, Drew, Yes, one hundred percent. That was
9:44
Speaker 1: what I was really debating with. He might be the
9:46
Speaker 1: way to go or there.
9:48
Speaker 3: They do have they do have a crew neck. But
9:51
Speaker 3: as a as a puddie, I was gonna say the
9:54
Speaker 3: hoodie is good for a big.
9:56
Speaker 1: Push it away if you can't, if you can't see
9:59
Speaker 1: the name, it kind of defeats the idea.
10:01
Speaker 2: Otherwise you're just marquette six. Okay, yeah, not nearly as cool.
10:04
Speaker 2: I'm I'm right there with you, Drew. And now this
10:06
Speaker 2: is where now you can help me out because I
10:08
Speaker 2: don't know that I love the white T shirt with
10:10
Speaker 2: a very very small logo right there, the marquet scripped
10:13
Speaker 2: across the front with the six in front, because then
10:16
Speaker 2: it almost looks like a full six pack.
10:18
Speaker 1: Then you get everything on that gray shirt. That's about as.
10:20
Speaker 2: Good as it can possibly get. Yeah, I think that
10:22
Speaker 2: great T shirts the way to get that's gonna be
10:24
Speaker 2: the winner right there, And they still have.
10:25
Speaker 1: The two Unless you're going crew. I don't wear a
10:27
Speaker 1: lot of cru sweatshirts. You gotta have a hood. You're
10:30
Speaker 1: gonna wear a cruiseweatshirt with like a button down under
10:33
Speaker 1: it or something.
10:33
Speaker 3: Right, I'm right there with you. The weird one over
10:36
Speaker 3: is on that side of it. I like doing it now.
10:37
Speaker 4: Yeah, I realize I noticed something when I turned about
10:40
Speaker 4: thirty four ish that I started looking like looking for
10:42
Speaker 4: Crui sweatshirt. It's more I'm like, I'm fully of dad
10:45
Speaker 4: mode now. But I do like the Crui sweatshirts. Do
10:47
Speaker 4: you pop the collar over the crew neck?
10:49
Speaker 2: No?
10:50
Speaker 4: See, I'm generally not wearing like dress shirts underneath. Oh okay,
10:54
Speaker 4: Like that would be a little dad that's like wearing
10:57
Speaker 4: the jersey over the dress shirt. Like I'm, you know,
11:00
Speaker 4: sitting in the David Gruber row right there, advisor for are.
11:02
Speaker 3: We not going to a Marquette game or not? I
11:04
Speaker 3: thought a sweater vest was required.
11:06
Speaker 1: Well, well, those guys if you were in a vest, Yeah,
11:08
Speaker 1: I had.
11:08
Speaker 3: I thought I had to have a couple of collars popped.
11:11
Speaker 3: So so far, I've only been mostly doing the T
11:13
Speaker 3: shirt under the crew neck.
11:14
Speaker 4: I love it. The goal it.
11:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the Nil store, you got to kind of
11:18
Speaker 1: hunt for it, but you can find Alicia bears kind
11:20
Speaker 1: of cool shout out, hey, beers her collection. So yeah,
11:23
Speaker 1: you gotta just decide what's the coolest look.
11:25
Speaker 2: And it's also a Wisconsin girl playing for Wisconsin school.
11:30
Speaker 3: That's the other part.
11:30
Speaker 2: And get we get to support a young lady from Slinger, Wisconsin,
11:34
Speaker 2: come on right back into the economy. Makes it makes
11:36
Speaker 2: it a lot better.
11:37
Speaker 4: It's a hometown you know, hometown girls. She's gonna be
11:39
Speaker 4: able to buy the Slinger Speedway.
11:41
Speaker 3: If I hope through the four.
11:44
Speaker 2: Years and she all of a sudden becomes a dog.
11:46
Speaker 2: That's going to be a hard thing to hope she is.
11:49
Speaker 3: You know, when you're you're how many how many.
11:52
Speaker 2: Marquette volleyball games do you do you frequent as the
11:55
Speaker 2: the most distinguished marquette along in the area.
11:57
Speaker 3: Not enough, not enough.
11:58
Speaker 4: It's been way too long though I was one of
12:01
Speaker 4: the voices for their streams in twenty thirteen, so I
12:04
Speaker 4: get myself a little bit credit there.
12:05
Speaker 3: I called some of those games, the former voice of
12:07
Speaker 3: I said one of the voices. I wasn't, but I haven't,
12:11
Speaker 3: I haven't done.
12:13
Speaker 1: Yeah.
12:13
Speaker 4: Well no, he's at levels above levels that's not nearly
12:17
Speaker 4: as good looking levels. But I gotta go to some games.
12:20
Speaker 4: I gotta go to some borret because I do love
12:21
Speaker 4: the game of volleyball. It's suburgeoningly popular sport.
12:24
Speaker 3: I have a young I think you have a young young.
12:26
Speaker 2: Daughter that would very much appreciate why you need to
12:28
Speaker 2: take her to some women's basketball for sure, and women's
12:31
Speaker 2: basketball for sure.
12:32
Speaker 4: Very very easy, very great experience if you're looking to
12:36
Speaker 4: look watch some live sports action. Really easy to get
12:39
Speaker 4: down to the McGuire Center. You park boop, you're right inside,
12:42
Speaker 4: and I know tickets are never expensive. It's always a
12:45
Speaker 4: fun experience for kids. They're always handing out balls and
12:47
Speaker 4: posters and stuff like that. So I got to get
12:50
Speaker 4: down there and check out this young Marquete squad, run
12:53
Speaker 4: some backslides and see some creative offense because they're really good.
12:56
Speaker 3: They've been going to tournaments for a while now, we
12:58
Speaker 3: know what Wisconsin is is that the offensive formation is
13:01
Speaker 3: a backslide slide.
13:03
Speaker 4: You know that's a creative you know, that's a creative attack.
13:06
Speaker 4: You know where the setters, you know, fake in front
13:09
Speaker 4: and setting back in the middle, sliding back behind it.
13:12
Speaker 4: It's hard to defend that if you get a going right.
13:14
Speaker 4: So that's a popular one. If you have an athletic middle,
13:16
Speaker 4: you can do that. Yeah, well played this volleyball. Yeah
13:20
Speaker 4: how about that?
13:21
Speaker 3: We'll break it attack for a little Who's hot?
13:22
Speaker 1: Who's not? Brought to us by Donovan Jorgenson Heating and cooling.
13:25
Speaker 1: Who's hot and who's not? Donovan Jorganson employee owned for
13:29
Speaker 1: forty years. They're hot, they're hot.
13:32
Speaker 2: Not everybody that had to listen to Armans breakdown of
13:34
Speaker 2: the offense and defensive strategies on volleyball. But who was
13:37
Speaker 2: also potentially hot yesterday? Or the Chicago White Sox because
13:41
Speaker 2: they finally drew had a lead with three runs and
13:44
Speaker 2: finally closed one out against the Cubs, win one game
13:47
Speaker 2: against the North Siders in that Crosstown series and give
13:50
Speaker 2: the Brewers a little bit of a reprieve and a
13:52
Speaker 2: little bit of a break. Braves also lost against the
13:54
Speaker 2: Twins last night. So the Brewers no harm no following
13:57
Speaker 2: that loss. You don't really lose any ground in that,
13:59
Speaker 2: Yes you don't. But it's like you look at it
14:01
Speaker 2: that way, and that makes the day to day.
14:04
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's the great duality of it because
14:06
Speaker 1: you're sure, big picture, you gotta get to where you're
14:09
Speaker 1: gonna get right, it doesn't really matter what happens, if
14:12
Speaker 1: it coincides or not. Just win games.
14:14
Speaker 2: But I'm watching it and I'm like, you can't help
14:16
Speaker 2: but look at it that way, because then immediately I'm like,
14:18
Speaker 2: all right, sweet, you didn't lose any ground. And then
14:20
Speaker 2: you think back, You're like, well, dang, you also didn't
14:22
Speaker 2: gain any ground. Yeah, gain ground? Are we trying to
14:24
Speaker 2: win the race? Are we trying to all be as
14:27
Speaker 2: slow as possible plotting through?
14:29
Speaker 1: And you can only control what you can control, which
14:31
Speaker 1: is your game. So win your game and then and
14:34
Speaker 1: we always say win the series. So today becomes pivotal,
14:37
Speaker 1: no big time. If you win. If the Brewers win
14:39
Speaker 1: every series the rest of the year, they're going to
14:41
Speaker 1: be the top seed.
14:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna be the top seed, the division champions
14:44
Speaker 2: and have everything rolling through here, and if you grab
14:47
Speaker 2: your season tickets you'll have access to all the preseason
14:49
Speaker 2: games or the postseason games. How about this one in
14:52
Speaker 2: the not category on both sides of the game, that
14:55
Speaker 2: was in Pittsburgh yesterday, Paul Skeins. We've mentioned it quite
14:57
Speaker 2: a quite a few everybody is rough, to say the least. Yesterday,
15:01
Speaker 2: once again, my man Andrew Philippony, who does afternoons in Pittsburgh,
15:06
Speaker 2: has called him pedestrian Paul, and he was once again
15:09
Speaker 2: Pedestrian Paul yesterday. Four and a third, four hits, three runs,
15:12
Speaker 2: four walks for Paul Skeins, and his era now nears
15:17
Speaker 2: a full four. But in the not category as well,
15:21
Speaker 2: in the game was a guy that I was wondering
15:23
Speaker 2: why there wasn't more smoke about. During the UH trade
15:26
Speaker 2: deadline season, the Detroit Tigers traded two star pitchers in
15:31
Speaker 2: Casey miies Form a number one overall pick and Tarrek
15:33
Speaker 2: Schouobel twice a Cy Young Award winner. One guy on
15:36
Speaker 2: their roster and on their pitching staff, Drew who's potentially
15:39
Speaker 2: a future Hall of Famer. And I say potentially because
15:41
Speaker 2: I don't know exactly where closers fall in here.
15:43
Speaker 3: And how hard it is or not hard to get in.
15:46
Speaker 2: Kenley Janssen, Oh, he's an interesting name, somebody that on
15:52
Speaker 2: the all time slave saves list a lot higher than
15:54
Speaker 2: people might think. With the Tigers, he blew his fifth
15:57
Speaker 2: save yesterday and shows exactly why he was not one
16:01
Speaker 2: of the folks that people were looking at acquiring during
16:03
Speaker 2: the deadline, as he gave up two runs to Ernies
16:06
Speaker 2: right away on two quick hits, did strike out one
16:09
Speaker 2: but a pair of bombs as the Pirates win yesterday
16:13
Speaker 2: and come back to win four three. So pedestrian Paul
16:15
Speaker 2: get saved because the guy that I was wondering why
16:17
Speaker 2: nobody's talking about the trade deadline, Kenley Jansen apparently can't
16:21
Speaker 2: do his job.
16:22
Speaker 1: He's frustrating. Tiger's no question.
16:25
Speaker 3: The Baltimore Oils were hopping for a different reason.
16:27
Speaker 4: They're hot upset about that file ball call, thinking that
16:30
Speaker 4: Homer was fair, and now they.
16:32
Speaker 3: Want they want.
16:33
Speaker 2: The bat of Pete Alonzo in the Seven Days Old
16:35
Speaker 2: would have been his second tater of the game, as
16:38
Speaker 2: he homered earlier in the night, would have been his
16:39
Speaker 2: thirtieth on the year and put him up four three, and.
16:41
Speaker 4: They would have probably won the game, so we don't know,
16:43
Speaker 4: but they probably ended up losing. And what do you
16:46
Speaker 4: guys think there should Should we review foul ball calls
16:49
Speaker 4: down the line foul poles?
16:50
Speaker 3: Can we put a laser up or an AI up?
16:52
Speaker 1: It is amazing that they can't, right, you know, do
16:55
Speaker 1: what Tennis does or something like that. Could the boundary
16:57
Speaker 1: calls because that's when when replay was introduced in baseball.
17:01
Speaker 1: That's what they were boundary ceps the lines.
17:03
Speaker 2: And that was the only thing you were allowed to
17:05
Speaker 2: do right well, And I like the Orioles broadcast team,
17:08
Speaker 2: They're like, they're gonna need to extend those foul polls
17:11
Speaker 2: if Pete's gonna play here for another four years.
17:13
Speaker 3: They signed him for a five year contract, so he's
17:14
Speaker 3: gonna be there.
17:16
Speaker 2: But I did laugh at that. I'm like, no, I
17:19
Speaker 2: I think we have some technology that might be able
17:21
Speaker 2: to help you with that one. I mean, if they
17:23
Speaker 2: can put the pylon cam and know exactly where the
17:25
Speaker 2: ball crosses in the NFL over, they might have the
17:28
Speaker 2: exact same technology to be able to do it with.
17:31
Speaker 2: But then again, then we wouldn't have had them freaking
17:34
Speaker 2: out on the field yesterday, and that would have robbed
17:37
Speaker 2: us of a great moment and a lot of good television,
17:39
Speaker 2: a lot of good frustration on it.
17:42
Speaker 3: I did enjoy.
17:43
Speaker 2: I do enjoy watching teams melt down when the call
17:45
Speaker 2: doesn't go their way, And that would have taken away
17:48
Speaker 2: that one. Also in the uh potentially not category, a
17:51
Speaker 2: lot of people thought the Bucks were going to be
17:53
Speaker 2: grabbing arm and your boy Peyton Watson.
17:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were in the mix, of course, to that article, they.
17:58
Speaker 2: Were apparently very much in the mix. But the guard
18:01
Speaker 2: from the Denver Nuggets goes way of Cleveland. Instead, they
18:05
Speaker 2: send out Max Shrews, who apparently nobody wanted, and most
18:09
Speaker 2: importantly Cleveland didn't want.
18:11
Speaker 3: They were trying to trade him all over the place.
18:13
Speaker 2: So the Bucks are kind of the team they are
18:15
Speaker 2: right now and they've split up, and I was just
18:18
Speaker 2: scouting out might be hot idea to get some Bucks
18:21
Speaker 2: season tickets coming up this year.
18:25
Speaker 3: It might be a good might be a good idea.
18:29
Speaker 3: I don't know, it might be a good idea.
18:30
Speaker 2: I'm I was looking at the green and the green
18:33
Speaker 2: and the cream package for the twenty Games.
18:35
Speaker 3: I don't know I can make forty. I think twenty
18:38
Speaker 3: might be might be a suitable option. This might be
18:40
Speaker 3: a renaissance for the quote unquote real Bucks fans.
18:43
Speaker 2: I mean, if we were going to talk about do
18:45
Speaker 2: you would you take a decade of losing for one
18:47
Speaker 2: title is put in.
18:49
Speaker 3: This is put your money where your.
18:50
Speaker 4: Mouse, put your thank you, This is put your money
18:52
Speaker 4: where your mouth is. This is the embodiment of it.
18:54
Speaker 3: Now prove us wrong, Say you would do it, Say
18:57
Speaker 3: you're good.
18:57
Speaker 4: With it, Well I will.
18:59
Speaker 3: I will let you know if if ultimately I pulled
19:01
Speaker 3: this trigger and we we.
19:02
Speaker 1: Will see we should we pull our resources and split
19:04
Speaker 1: a package.
19:05
Speaker 3: I think I don't think it might. I don't think
19:07
Speaker 3: it's a terrible idea. Also might be a fun thing.
19:09
Speaker 1: Go to the game. Yeah, we could all go to
19:10
Speaker 1: the game. You say we could all go.
19:11
Speaker 3: To the games.
19:12
Speaker 2: It might be a good thing for us to be
19:13
Speaker 2: able to uh potentially, I don't know all the rules
19:16
Speaker 2: in legalities they can tell us in Thailand, but it
19:18
Speaker 2: might be a good thing for our listeners if we
19:20
Speaker 2: had some ways for them to enjoy some tickets for
19:22
Speaker 2: kind of right, it may be a nice little idea.
19:25
Speaker 2: We can find some ways we can have a four
19:27
Speaker 2: pack and then take some listeners along take some listeners
19:29
Speaker 2: of some games.
19:30
Speaker 3: I don't know thinging it out.
19:33
Speaker 2: I'll tell you the deals are a lot better than
19:34
Speaker 2: I had anticipated they might be.
19:37
Speaker 3: They're fine.
19:37
Speaker 2: They're trying to get people in Drew and they might
19:39
Speaker 2: have to get a little creative coming up this season's right, hey,
19:43
Speaker 2: while we were looking.
19:44

20:48
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin Drew billion armon bringing it to
20:55
Speaker 1: you on a Thursday, Brewers and Mariners today at one
20:58
Speaker 1: o'clock and oh, I know who will be there. I'll
21:01
Speaker 1: be there and so will Hunter bomb Guard, who joins
21:03
Speaker 1: us now. Good morning Hunter, Good morning guys.
21:06
Speaker 5: Yes, series finale, Brewers trying to go for the series
21:08
Speaker 5: win again after a seven to five loss last night.
21:11
Speaker 1: We've been talking about that loss and one of the
21:14
Speaker 1: things that popped up with those crucial at bats by
21:17
Speaker 1: Cooper Pratt and Luis Lara and made me think, is
21:20
Speaker 1: that a preview of the playoffs. I'm not being a naysayer,
21:23
Speaker 1: but that's a question, isn't it. Hunter?
21:26
Speaker 5: I think so, and I think it's good that they're
21:28
Speaker 5: getting the experience of these at bats right now. You know,
21:30
Speaker 5: we've seen Laura in that situation, we've seen Pratt in
21:33
Speaker 5: that situation, and Pratt has come through. Murphy made sure
21:36
Speaker 5: to mention that last night at some point, but and
21:39
Speaker 5: it's not and Laura had a good at bat later
21:42
Speaker 5: in the game as well to get on base, but
21:44
Speaker 5: unfortunately it just the last night.
21:47
Speaker 3: It did show the youth of both of them.
21:48
Speaker 5: And obviously Cooper Pratt was coming off ten days off,
21:51
Speaker 5: so you're obviously going to have a little bit of
21:54
Speaker 5: rust when he returns. And Murphy said to us before
21:57
Speaker 5: the game yesterday that, like, he's not going to be
21:58
Speaker 5: at his best, but you know, we know he's ready,
22:01
Speaker 5: and so he'll he'll kind of reacclimate himself. And so
22:04
Speaker 5: the Cooper Pratt you see this week might be a
22:06
Speaker 5: little worse than what you see next week. But of
22:08
Speaker 5: course he is one of their better players, so you
22:10
Speaker 5: want him on the field. But you are going to
22:12
Speaker 5: have this learning curve, and that kind of brings up
22:15
Speaker 5: why getting sal Free, like a guy who's been there,
22:18
Speaker 5: done that, who's been in the postseason many times, as
22:22
Speaker 5: tough of a year as he has had offensively, you
22:24
Speaker 5: want that guy on your squad. You want that guy
22:27
Speaker 5: on your roster, and you want that guy playing in September,
22:29
Speaker 5: in October. And that's why they're making sure that he
22:31
Speaker 5: is going to be as healthy as can be when
22:34
Speaker 5: he comes back.
22:34
Speaker 2: So that is it more of a slow play on
22:38
Speaker 2: getting him back, because as Cooper Pratt, I think like
22:41
Speaker 2: it sounded like he had his first at bat.
22:44
Speaker 3: Hia, He's like, all right, sweet, I'll see you guys later.
22:46
Speaker 2: I got q Dobin the in the break room, like
22:48
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna get a body here and I'm
22:49
Speaker 2: gonna go play major league games again. Sally, it's a
22:52
Speaker 2: little bit more of a slow role. Now, obviously he
22:54
Speaker 2: was maybe out, he was out a little longer. Some
22:56
Speaker 2: question with the shoulder, is there any you know? Does
23:00
Speaker 2: it take you aback as too? He comes back with
23:02
Speaker 2: the team, hangs out, works out. Now we're going back
23:04
Speaker 2: out on a rehab stint. Is it just a delayed
23:07
Speaker 2: process to make sure he's at his full best ability
23:10
Speaker 2: when he comes back, or we want to give Luis
23:13
Speaker 2: Laura another week of major league at Pats before we
23:15
Speaker 2: send him back down or Nashville way.
23:18
Speaker 5: I think it's mostly just wanting Sale to be as
23:20
Speaker 5: healthy as possible, but also wanting Sale to get some
23:23
Speaker 5: confidence at the plate and maybe tweak some things that
23:25
Speaker 5: he wasn't doing in the first half of the season
23:27
Speaker 5: that he can bring into the stretch run. I think
23:29
Speaker 5: there's kind of when self Freelock went out on this
23:32
Speaker 5: rehab assignment, Pat Murphy said, he's going on this rehab
23:34
Speaker 5: assignment for longer than maybe usual for two reasons. One is,
23:38
Speaker 5: when he first went on the rehab assignment, he couldn't
23:40
Speaker 5: he couldn't play the outfield and throw quite yet he
23:42
Speaker 5: was still ramping up his throwing, so he was the
23:44
Speaker 5: d H for the first few games, first hand full
23:46
Speaker 5: of games down in Nashville. And then the second part
23:49
Speaker 5: he's like, we want his offense to be closer to
23:51
Speaker 5: the production that he had last year instead of what
23:54
Speaker 5: he's been doing this year. And so I think that
23:57
Speaker 5: combination has led to a longer rehabit. He was in
24:00
Speaker 5: Milwaukee on Tuesday to work out with the major league
24:04
Speaker 5: club Perem. Murphy said he met with him for a
24:06
Speaker 5: while and one of the things that came up in
24:08
Speaker 5: that meeting was, look, we want you to be as
24:12
Speaker 5: healthy as it can be. When you come back. This
24:13
Speaker 5: is Pat Murphy says, this is your career at stake. Like,
24:16
Speaker 5: I know you love playing through injury. I know you
24:18
Speaker 5: love playing through whatever's got you know, whatever's ailing you.
24:21
Speaker 5: But this is something we want to take care of,
24:24
Speaker 5: so then it's not more of a serious issue. I mean, look,
24:26
Speaker 5: you don't want an injury to your throwing shoulder. That
24:28
Speaker 5: is very that's not good, especially obviously when you're using
24:32
Speaker 5: that in the outfield, and how good that arm can be,
24:34
Speaker 5: and the gold glove defense that he is able to
24:36
Speaker 5: play out there. So I think that those two reasons
24:39
Speaker 5: are the reasons why he's out there in Norfolk, Virginia
24:43
Speaker 5: right now. With the sounds. He was two for five
24:45
Speaker 5: last night with a home run, although that exit velocity
24:47
Speaker 5: was like eighty seven miles an hour on the home run,
24:49
Speaker 5: which is I feel like selfree like classics, you know
24:54
Speaker 5: it just it went over the fence. Though his ops
24:56
Speaker 5: is like nine to sixty eight and twenty seven that
24:58
Speaker 5: batch down there in Nashville. So the offense is coming
25:00
Speaker 5: along and you like that. Obviously it's triple A. We'll
25:03
Speaker 5: see what he does at the major league level. Right now,
25:05
Speaker 5: they just want to see him play last night, play tonight,
25:09
Speaker 5: you know, have some rigorous throws on the arm, okay,
25:11
Speaker 5: and then how does he bounce back? I think we
25:12
Speaker 5: could even see him tomorrow if he bounces back well
25:15
Speaker 5: on Friday or Saturday. I think the earliest you could
25:18
Speaker 5: see him is tomorrow. I would guess maybe more Saturday.
25:20
Speaker 5: Maybe they say, okay, you play played last night, you
25:23
Speaker 5: play tonight, and then see how he is on Friday,
25:26
Speaker 5: and maybe activate on Saturday. We'll see. He could be
25:28
Speaker 5: back pretty soon, but they just want to make sure
25:31
Speaker 5: that shoulder is in good shape and can bounce back.
25:34
Speaker 4: Well, you think they need his juice back a little
25:35
Speaker 4: bit too, I mean, you think they need his energy.
25:37
Speaker 4: I mean, this is a good ball club. Obviously they've
25:39
Speaker 4: been playing well, they're still winning games, but they're kind of,
25:42
Speaker 4: you know, it's been a slog through these dog days
25:44
Speaker 4: and the injuries and things like that, and Sal brings
25:46
Speaker 4: that unexplainable, unmatchable kind of juice and energy that everyone loves.
25:52
Speaker 4: I can't imagine that that would also not be a
25:54
Speaker 4: great little sauce for this, for this you know ingredient
25:57
Speaker 4: here as well for the Brewers.
26:00
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean and Jake Bowers calls him the heart,
26:02
Speaker 5: heartbeat of the team, and when they lose that for
26:04
Speaker 5: a month, that's that's that's going to impact a little bit. Obviously,
26:08
Speaker 5: they've still played pretty good baseball overall, but I yeah,
26:11
Speaker 5: I think that's a really good point. I also think,
26:13
Speaker 5: you know, it's interesting because Luis Lara, who's obviously filled
26:16
Speaker 5: in for him more than anybody, kind of brings that
26:18
Speaker 5: juice too. He's kind of a similar that similar kind
26:22
Speaker 5: of energy out there right that really lets his emotions.
26:25
Speaker 5: You know, his emotions are on his sleeve, whether it's
26:27
Speaker 5: in the batter's box. We saw that last night on
26:29
Speaker 5: the three pitch strikeout right, and Pat Murphy said it
26:32
Speaker 5: after the game that he kind of let it, let
26:34
Speaker 5: that strike call early in that bat. It kind of
26:36
Speaker 5: affect him and not that soul feeling necessarily does that,
26:39
Speaker 5: but he wears his emotions on his sleeve at times.
26:41
Speaker 5: And I think Luis Lara can really fire up the team.
26:44
Speaker 5: I think obviously the catches against the Twins, you know,
26:46
Speaker 5: a week and a half ago were big and that
26:48
Speaker 5: was kind of sal like and getting the crowd into
26:51
Speaker 5: and everything like that. So I think it will be
26:54
Speaker 5: big though because he's one of the leaders. He's one
26:55
Speaker 5: of the as we think of him maybe as a
26:57
Speaker 5: young player, but he's getting to be one of the
27:00
Speaker 5: one are the veterans, so to speak, on this team,
27:02
Speaker 5: especially in the position player group, and that is that
27:05
Speaker 5: is key, and I think he's a big part of
27:07
Speaker 5: what happens in that clubhouse. And I think you want
27:10
Speaker 5: that guy and your team down the stretch.
27:11
Speaker 1: All right, Hunter, You're entering a stretch here where the
27:14
Speaker 1: Brewers it's almost Cubs like three day games in a row,
27:17
Speaker 1: very weird. Today, Tomorrow three ten with miz against Sale
27:21
Speaker 1: that's destination Pitcher Nerds, and then one o'clock Saturday is
27:26
Speaker 1: the rarest of the rare for the Brewers. They almost
27:29
Speaker 1: never play one o'clock Saturday games wild They like the
27:31
Speaker 1: six pm starts on Saturday. But it's also a Saturday
27:34
Speaker 1: getaway game because both teams are flying to Williamsport. Do
27:38
Speaker 1: you have fomo of not going to Williamsport on Sunday
27:40
Speaker 1: or what's this going to lay out like? And it's
27:44
Speaker 1: just it seems strange, like how are they going to
27:46
Speaker 1: handle this? It's just a little jarring stretch of schedule here.
27:51
Speaker 5: It is it's it's definitely strange. It's gonna be weird
27:54
Speaker 5: to cover that game on Saturday and not have a
27:56
Speaker 5: game to cover on Sunday. That like never happens. I'm
27:59
Speaker 5: not gonna yeah, I uh, I'll look. I'm excited to
28:03
Speaker 5: kind of see what the scene looks like. Obviously we'll
28:06
Speaker 5: take it in on the television broadcast. I know, Billy,
28:09
Speaker 5: you mentioned yesterday like Sunday Night Baseball, Like they're finally
28:11
Speaker 5: on Sunday Night Baseball.
28:12
Speaker 2: It's nice, finally get there. All you did was use
28:15
Speaker 2: our entire house for your sweet video that you shot
28:18
Speaker 2: with Zach brownban nice you to actually put it on
28:20
Speaker 2: the stupid channel.
28:21
Speaker 3: That's a good point. Yeah, it's good.
28:23
Speaker 5: In February, all right, Well, well that's the thing too,
28:26
Speaker 5: they're not even on the official Sunday Night Baseball broadcast
28:30
Speaker 5: because ESPN doesn't even have it anymore. So NBC does,
28:32
Speaker 5: and you're gonna get that in September. The Baltimore the
28:35
Speaker 5: finale of the Baltimore series is a is a Sunday
28:38
Speaker 5: Night Baseball game, I believe, uh in September. But otherwise, yeah,
28:41
Speaker 5: this is back on ESPN. Uh, it's gonna be you know,
28:44
Speaker 5: Carl Ravich on the call, the the you know the
28:47
Speaker 5: let go h Caryl Ravitch, which is.
28:55
Speaker 3: I already rolled it, Carl Ravage.
28:56
Speaker 5: Oh no, yeah, I know. So it's but it's gonna
28:59
Speaker 5: be cool. I think the players are looking forward to it.
29:02
Speaker 5: It's it's yeah, it's Pat Murphy said yesterday like it's
29:04
Speaker 5: a little a little strange. We'll hear full Pat Murphy
29:07
Speaker 5: comments on it coming up tonight in Milwaukee Baseball tonight.
29:09
Speaker 5: We'll kind of get into the logistics of it. But
29:12
Speaker 5: it is. I think it's gonna be pretty neat. I
29:14
Speaker 5: think it's gonna be a neat experience for the Brewers obviously. Look,
29:16
Speaker 5: these games against the Braves are gonna be key. You
29:18
Speaker 5: want to grab the season series if you can. The
29:20
Speaker 5: Braves are one of the teams that you're competing with.
29:22
Speaker 5: Braves have not been playing well. Just got swept in Minnesota,
29:25
Speaker 5: I believe. So that's maybe that helps you coming into
29:28
Speaker 5: too this weekend, or you can say, well, they're due
29:30
Speaker 5: to win a game, so that could not help you.
29:32
Speaker 5: Whatever it is. But the Brewers will be the home
29:34
Speaker 5: team on Sunday as well. Uh, so that'll be you know,
29:37
Speaker 5: they'll they'll get to bat in the bottom of each
29:39
Speaker 5: inning even though it is in williams Port. So that's
29:42
Speaker 5: how that shakes out. But it is gonna be strange.
29:44
Speaker 5: One ten today, three ten tomorrow, one ten on Saturday. Uh,
29:47
Speaker 5: it's it's gonna I What I do like, though, is
29:50
Speaker 5: that you get missed on Friday and Henderson on Saturday,
29:52
Speaker 5: both in front of the home crowd.
29:54
Speaker 1: Big right cool?
29:54
Speaker 3: And now that leads into I got two quick ones here.
29:56
Speaker 2: One do we know if any of the Brewers players
29:59
Speaker 2: may to Williamsport as players? Is this like a group
30:03
Speaker 2: of any of them got anywhere close? Todd Fraser is
30:06
Speaker 2: one of the only ones that I remember Jason Bay
30:08
Speaker 2: back in the day. He was a legend in the
30:10
Speaker 2: Little League World Series. I'd wonder if how close any
30:13
Speaker 2: of them got or if like they thought that Pillinger right,
30:15
Speaker 2: Cody Pellinger was a part of it, But like, I'd
30:17
Speaker 2: wonder how close any of them were. And Drew and
30:19
Speaker 2: I were just conversing in this during the break because
30:21
Speaker 2: you're spot on Friday and Saturday, huge gates. Saturday might
30:25
Speaker 2: be the game of the year with the Hank Aaron
30:27
Speaker 2: Replica Jersey, But it's Chris Sale against Jacob Mezarowski coming
30:32
Speaker 2: up on Friday. There's nothing like juice in the ballpark, Hunter,
30:36
Speaker 2: but from the baseball viewing pleasure, from getting to actually
30:40
Speaker 2: see how disgustingly good both of these pitchers are. Chris
30:43
Speaker 2: Sales ticketed for the Hall of Fame, right, He's probably
30:45
Speaker 2: gonna be a Hall of Famer and MS is starting
30:47
Speaker 2: out what that would look like in a career. Is
30:50
Speaker 2: it better to watch it on TV or in section
30:52
Speaker 2: two twenty eight? Is it better to see where the
30:55
Speaker 2: ball and how crazy it's moving the sheer velocity or
30:59
Speaker 2: to actually feel it in the ballpark.
31:02
Speaker 5: Yeah, My message to you throughout the season, my message
31:06
Speaker 5: to any fan is when Mis pitches, just get to
31:08
Speaker 5: a game that Mis pitches, because it just is It's electric.
31:11
Speaker 5: It's not just because obviously you can see what he
31:14
Speaker 5: does in the mound, but the atmosphere at those games
31:16
Speaker 5: and the something special that you could see. You never
31:19
Speaker 5: know what Miss is going to do on the mound.
31:20
Speaker 5: Is that going to be the night that he's able
31:22
Speaker 5: to get through a no hitter or or who know,
31:25
Speaker 5: like at some point he's probably going to pitch one
31:27
Speaker 5: of those, and is that the game it is, and
31:28
Speaker 5: they have the great scoreboard up and right field that
31:31
Speaker 5: you can see all the velocities and you can see
31:33
Speaker 5: what type of pitch it was and see how fast
31:35
Speaker 5: he's throwing it like that. That is, that's all still
31:38
Speaker 5: there for you, even if you're looking. You know, even
31:40
Speaker 5: if you're looking for that, you can still sit in
31:43
Speaker 5: those sections and be able to in any section and
31:45
Speaker 5: be able to see that scoreboard in the right field.
31:48
Speaker 5: And Miss said recently that he was he peeks up
31:50
Speaker 5: there sometimes, so you're everybody's looking at it, including the
31:53
Speaker 5: pitcher himself. I would, but I yeah, get get to
31:56
Speaker 5: the ballpark if you can this last. You know, there's
31:58
Speaker 5: not going to be a ton of chances to see
32:00
Speaker 5: Miss the rest of the season. There's probably gonna be
32:02
Speaker 5: maybe three, who knows how it all lines up. They
32:05
Speaker 5: have a lot of way. They have a lot of
32:07
Speaker 5: road games here the rest of the way. So make
32:09
Speaker 5: sure that you're you're getting to the park to see him.
32:10
Speaker 1: What you said about Miss Hunters what I told people
32:13
Speaker 1: early in Jannis's career, just go see him, yeah, and
32:15
Speaker 1: tell your grandkids you saw him play. And then the
32:18
Speaker 1: thing with Miss is if you're between the dugouts and
32:20
Speaker 1: section in the one hundreds, you know, in the field
32:23
Speaker 1: level you can get a pretty good idea of how
32:25
Speaker 1: fast that it looks way more impressive. It's a little
32:28
Speaker 1: different than every other picture. But up in the two
32:31
Speaker 1: hundreds or in the bleachers, it kind of looks like
32:33
Speaker 1: every other picture. But the thing is with mis Brewers,
32:36
Speaker 1: fans notoriously like to tailgate and linger in the parking
32:38
Speaker 1: lots and arrive late with miz whatever fans are there
32:42
Speaker 1: when he walks from the dugout to the bullpen and
32:44
Speaker 1: go warm up, he gets a he puts juice in
32:46
Speaker 1: a building like they start to cheer there. You know
32:48
Speaker 1: already when he's going out to warm up. You get
32:51
Speaker 1: that in other cities, you get that during the playoffs,
32:53
Speaker 1: but to have that in the regular season is cool.
32:56
Speaker 5: Yeah, one hundred percent. And the velocity is usually higher
32:59
Speaker 5: in the first inning than any other ending usually. I mean,
33:01
Speaker 5: obviously he could reach back at some points if there's
33:04
Speaker 5: a big at bat or something, but those numbers usually pop,
33:07
Speaker 5: especially in that first inning, and he's playing the Braves,
33:10
Speaker 5: and we all know how he kind of gets damped
33:12
Speaker 5: up for these bigger opponents, and you could see some
33:15
Speaker 5: of that velocity be pretty high, possibly tomorrow really quick.
33:19
Speaker 4: We haven't really talked about this, and I want to
33:20
Speaker 4: say it for you. Some I couldn't shake last night.
33:23
Speaker 4: What did you make of a murph pre game I
33:25
Speaker 4: think was pregame really saying I don't think we've played
33:28
Speaker 4: that great and I don't think this team is gelled yet.
33:30
Speaker 3: It con took me by surprise a bit.
33:31
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously we know what this team has done
33:33
Speaker 4: record wise on the field, and I know Murphy is
33:37
Speaker 4: the master of psychology in that sense sometimes with his players.
33:40
Speaker 4: Do you think there's an aspect of, you know, not
33:42
Speaker 4: one of these guys to get too high on their horse,
33:45
Speaker 4: or do you think he's really seen it, like we
33:46
Speaker 4: haven't gotten the whole undaunted power of friendship that we
33:50
Speaker 4: had in the years past. But they won a lot
33:52
Speaker 4: of games and they've been the best team in baseball
33:53
Speaker 4: most of this time.
33:54
Speaker 3: What did you make of that? And were you surprised
33:56
Speaker 3: to hear him talk like talk like that.
33:58
Speaker 5: I'm not super he said that before. And I think
34:01
Speaker 5: this this, you know, maybe made a little bit more
34:04
Speaker 5: headlines just because where they sit right now and every
34:06
Speaker 5: time they're thirty games over five hundred. Now they're twenty
34:08
Speaker 5: nine games over five hundred, best record, and ball usually
34:11
Speaker 5: don't hear that from that type of manager. But two
34:14
Speaker 5: things with it. I was a little surprised that he
34:15
Speaker 5: said that they hadn't geled yet because I feel like
34:18
Speaker 5: this team is pretty together. However, even you know, it's
34:22
Speaker 5: interesting because they had that team that win over the
34:24
Speaker 5: Twins in that finale and it seemed like that was
34:26
Speaker 5: kind of the team win of the year, but then
34:28
Speaker 5: they go and get swept by the Padres, Like it
34:30
Speaker 5: felt like this was the best way you could go
34:32
Speaker 5: into a West Coast trip, and then it kind of
34:33
Speaker 5: just kind of went back down. They just have not
34:36
Speaker 5: had and maybe that's kind of what he meant, like
34:39
Speaker 5: that was a possibility for them to jell and it
34:41
Speaker 5: just didn't didn't quite manifest itself. They have, but to
34:45
Speaker 5: be honest, I kind of agree with it. Like we're
34:47
Speaker 5: watching like they're finding ways to win, but this is
34:49
Speaker 5: not like last year where you had winning streak after
34:52
Speaker 5: winning streak and they're dominating and they're getting to that
34:55
Speaker 5: you know, that ninety seven win total. They may get
34:57
Speaker 5: close to that again this year. We'll see how the
34:59
Speaker 5: last thirty five game go. But and it's not like
35:02
Speaker 5: they have they have to have a crazy record to
35:04
Speaker 5: do it right, right right, I.
35:06
Speaker 1: Just did the math. With thirty five games left, they
35:08
Speaker 1: could the wheels could come off. They could go twelve
35:10
Speaker 1: and twenty three, which would be a brutal stretch, and
35:12
Speaker 1: win ninety games.
35:14
Speaker 3: It is weird.
35:14
Speaker 1: I wonder if it's mostly us and just winnings become
35:17
Speaker 1: more ordinary.
35:18
Speaker 3: I don't know, but I kind of get what you
35:20
Speaker 3: mean it is.
35:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, the only teams in the league right now that
35:22
Speaker 1: are playing good are the Padres and Dodgers, and they're
35:25
Speaker 1: both seven and three in their last ten, and the
35:27
Speaker 1: Mets suck in our seven and three.
35:29
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, in the Mets Dodgers are seven
35:31
Speaker 3: and three?
35:31
Speaker 1: Who they lose the three too? Oh yeah, you're Milwaukee
35:34
Speaker 1: Brew or.
35:34
Speaker 4: Maybe yeah, maybe it's because you know, long winning streaks
35:37
Speaker 4: helped that kind of feeling and that memory of it,
35:39
Speaker 4: Like last year they had the web streak and all that,
35:41
Speaker 4: and we've just been winning a lot, I mean this year.
35:43
Speaker 2: But I mean, you look at like their best players,
35:46
Speaker 2: though to Murph's point, their best guys have not really
35:49
Speaker 2: all ever gotten hot consistently together. You haven't seen a
35:54
Speaker 2: Churio and Terrang in sainc Run.
35:56
Speaker 1: You have a terrain Contraras and Yelich.
35:58
Speaker 2: Right, and now if that rolls through in the midst
36:00
Speaker 2: of September, sweet, we're gonna have a different kind of
36:02
Speaker 2: October and Hunter is gonna be very, very busy throughout
36:05
Speaker 2: throughout October.
36:06
Speaker 3: But they I.
36:08
Speaker 2: Liked him saying it because it definitely made me feel
36:11
Speaker 2: not as elitist as I think Armand was saying, like
36:14
Speaker 2: winning hasn't just desensitized to us of the process, but
36:17
Speaker 2: they haven't looked that great throughout it.
36:19
Speaker 1: You're right, and Hunter is double dipping today. He'll be
36:21
Speaker 1: at the ballpark and then Milwaukee's Baseball Tonight, which is
36:24
Speaker 1: a postgame show and a look ahead to the big

38:27
Speaker 2: Well, head coach of Oklahoma State Cowboys, Eric Morris is
38:30
Speaker 2: doing just that. Drew said recently in an interview in
38:34
Speaker 2: a press conference that he shot and killed in Armadillo
38:38
Speaker 2: for damaging his yard. Just in the midst of the
38:42
Speaker 2: press conference, Morris had to let everybody know the former
38:45
Speaker 2: North Texas coach, was hired to revive the struggling Stillwater programming,
38:50
Speaker 2: described as overnight encounter with the mammal during a session
38:54
Speaker 2: with reporters this week. Quote, my brain's going constantly, so
38:57
Speaker 2: I don't sleep very well folks on Tuesday. I've had
39:01
Speaker 2: a couple armadillo problems tearing up my yard. Finally, a
39:04
Speaker 2: couple days ago, I just popped up two thirty am
39:07
Speaker 2: because I couldn't sleep, and I finally had a great
39:09
Speaker 2: opportunity for me to go outside, and luckily I found him.
39:11
Speaker 3: It was my first encounter with an armadillo.
39:13
Speaker 2: For Morris in Oklahoma said it was crushing my yard,
39:18
Speaker 2: my flower beds, digging everything up. Morris said he made
39:22
Speaker 2: quick work of the animal, made quick work and gave
39:25
Speaker 2: new meaning to quote pistols firing, the popular slogan in
39:30
Speaker 2: Anchester for.
39:32
Speaker 3: Oklahoma state fans. They put the pistols up in fire.
39:35
Speaker 2: He said, I had to send a text message to
39:37
Speaker 2: my neighbors and apologize for the gunshot.
39:40
Speaker 3: I am in the country, so it's legal, I was
39:42
Speaker 3: gonna say, but I had to get rid of them.
39:43
Speaker 3: Can you shoot in a news and s armadillo in
39:45
Speaker 3: the country in Oklahoma. You probably can't. It's Oklahoma.
39:48
Speaker 2: It's Oklahoma. I mean, I still want to Oklahoma might
39:50
Speaker 2: get on there and do just about anything.
39:52
Speaker 1: You didn't dear yourself.
39:53
Speaker 3: Tom, But just want to let everybody know I'm about
39:56
