• 3:39
  Speaker 2: If I didn't just absolutely despise all things traffic this week,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, and I do.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Boy do I I think rightful, Lisa.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: I've spent more time in the car this week, And honestly,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: the weirdest thing is the easiest travel I had this week,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: and it wasn't coming here. I had some other stuff
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I was doing that I had leave the house early
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Tuesday and today, and I just despise the traffic in
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: this area. And but the funny thing is on Monday,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: with the world first World Cup game, it wasn't bad.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: It's best day of the weekly. It was the best
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: day of the week traffic wise. Was Monday. Yeah, okay,
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: I don't like really Okay, so that's part of it.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Was may people took the day off. I think, well,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I think they did. I mentioned this the other day.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: I think I mentioned I might have been Monday that
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I mentioned it. My son's girlfriend, she's interning with a
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: judge down in I think in Kent or someplace, and
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: she's in law school, and they they the judge said
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: they had everybody working from home that day because Kent Station,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: the Transit, the trains, whatever train goes down Transit or
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: whatever it goes through there with can they so was
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: just going to be mayhem. So so I think people
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: did heed that. But yeah, a lot of people probably
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: did stay homework from home if you can. But yeah,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: if I didn't just absolutely despise the traffic, I think
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: it be kind of fun the just to get the vibe.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I mentioned this on Monday, and we'll get in this a
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: little bit later on the show. I just it was really,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: our city has shown so good so far for the
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: World Cup, and tomorrow is going to be insane. I
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: am going somewhere to watch the games. I think there's
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: a zillion places to do that. Some are free, some
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: are not. You could do whatever, right in terms of
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: going wherever, I'm going to go to a bar myself, well, restaurant,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: slash bar, but there's a lot of free options, center things.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: I think they're open up the meural Amphitheater out there
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: or something like that. So it's like there's all kinds
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: of great stuff. Go if you have the opportunity, and
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I know, listen, trust me, I understand this. Not everybody
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: has the opportunity take the afternoon off on a Friday,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: but if you do, if you have that opportunity, go
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: do it. Because us tomorrow against Australia in our city
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: and our town is going to be just absolutely phenomenal.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: And can we talk about our matchup too, because Aussie's
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: are fun.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: They are not going to be a.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: Table table that for one table we'll get to one o'clock. Okay,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: just as that I can on an honorary Ossie. Now,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: so she's just say that you would down there.
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying I got to them when their first
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: match with them in Australia, and it was super fun.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying that the.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: Group of maybe you know, the opposition, is a very fun,
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: very fun group, and I think it'll be a very
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: good atmosphere.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: US Open, by the way, is underway. We'll get to
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: an update here in a few minutes. Rory McElroy right
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: now is your leader three under through sixteen. He's on seventeen.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: The wind is howling at Shinnacock. Is it always windy
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: on Long Island?
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: No?
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: I mean because they.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Say this course is. I heard somebody today I was
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: driving in and listening to some of the golf coader
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: are like, oh, this is just a normal day at Shinnecock.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: It's well, it is that far east because you're going
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: all the way to the fishtail of Long Island. You're
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: going in that direction right, so it's right almost as
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: far as you can get east.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, these winds are going to be crazy, like
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: they may end up having to suspend play at some
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: point because if it gets over thirty miles an hour consistently,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: they suspend play. But they're having gusts up to thirty
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and forty five and forty right now. But then it's
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: been breezy all day, like fifteen to twenty and they said,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: that's just that's just shinnekocko.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: It is, it is. It's in an area where you'll
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: get that makes sense.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: That's that's our local coverage right there out the chop
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: You don't want to be I don't think you want
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: to be in a chopper today out there. Doesn't sound
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: like that'd be a lot of fun. I'm told that
• 7:15

  Speaker 7: in Mexico National Gas and oil guy out of Houston's
• 13:49
  Speaker 7: been really really supporting it. And this is the sixth
• 13:53
  Speaker 7: tournament of this year and it.
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: Was a good day.
• 13:57
  Speaker 7: We're in Minnesota today. Tony Romo is leading today. He
• 14:00
  Speaker 7: went out and shot a three hundred sixty nine.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Oh sure, why not?
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: God?
• 14:04
  Speaker 7: I had a four birdie seventy four to over today,
• 14:08
  Speaker 7: So I'm nice after my seventy after my two under
• 14:11
  Speaker 7: seventy yesterday. I'm even part for the tournament, so I'm
• 14:14
  Speaker 7: feeling pretty good about it heading into.
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: Tomorrow's final round. So it's just an awesome way.
• 14:18
  Speaker 7: It's Major League Baseball, NHL, NFL, NBA, tennis, you.
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: Know, soccer.
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: Everybody who's a former professional athlete has an opportunity to
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: be invited to these tournaments. And then we get to
• 14:36
  Speaker 7: go out and compete again each other against each other,
• 14:38
  Speaker 7: which is a lot of fun.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Well yeah, because guys are athletes, you just want to compete,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: which is cool. I know Romo's got game. We've heard
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: about Tony Romo's game. I still work in hockey with
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: the Kraken. Have been around hockey forever. I've never met
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: many hockey players from juniors to college to minor pros
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: to the NHL that aren't good sticks. NHL guys are
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: they are? They kind of carrying the way a little
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: bit right now.
• 15:01
  Speaker 7: They're they're doing a pretty good job. I played with
• 15:05
  Speaker 7: Kyle Quincy today. He played for the Detroit Red Wings
• 15:08
  Speaker 7: for years and some other squads. I beat him by
• 15:11
  Speaker 7: a stroke today. Brett Hole, Jeremy Ronick are are here.
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: Grant Fuer Grant Fuer covered up a birdie of mine
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: that would.
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: Have won me a skin today skim.
• 15:23
  Speaker 7: I think the skin was paining out like fifteen hundred
• 15:25
  Speaker 7: bucks too, so that's a big deal. I'm a little
• 15:28
  Speaker 7: upset about that. But yeah, the hockey players are are
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: are pretty darn good.
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: The basketball players have really impressed.
• 15:36
  Speaker 7: I played with Gerald Henderson Junior today and he shot
• 15:38
  Speaker 7: a two over seventy four like the five birdies, and
• 15:42
  Speaker 7: he hits it a mile man. He hits it so
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: far round and playing really well. He's I think he's
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: in the top.
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: Ten right now, so it should be an interesting final
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: round tomorrow.
• 15:52
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna I'm gonna try to go loan and see
• 15:54
  Speaker 7: them make, you know, make a bunch of birdies, eight
• 15:56
  Speaker 7: nine birdies, and that should get me into the winter circles.
• 15:58
  Speaker 7: I can get it done.
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: Us.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Get your golf in now, because you'll be busy this fall. Congratulations.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: The job on the USA Network's Pact twelve coverage coming up,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: and you were part of the CW coverage before, which
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: I think is the last time I text you. It's
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: great to see you on that, but you're now with
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: USA Network as well, and I'm assuming when they came
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: to you is an easy decision. Just some thoughts uff
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: from you on getting this opportunity.
• 16:22
  Speaker 8: Well, I mean.
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: What we had done the last two years was setting
• 16:29
  Speaker 7: us up for something like this. You know, I remember
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: when the CW called and I didn't want to take
• 16:34
  Speaker 7: I didn't want to take the job. I didn't want
• 16:36
  Speaker 7: to necessarily travel all the way across the country every week,
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: especially just to Corballis and Pullman for those two years.
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: And because my wife is smart and she sees the
• 16:47
  Speaker 7: bigger picture, she convinced me to reconsider and take the job.
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: And she says, you're setting yourself up to be the
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: you know, the lead analysts and the face kind of
• 16:57
  Speaker 7: the Pact twelve conference.
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: I think, And and that's that was the point.
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: And so yeah, when when USA came to me, we
• 17:05
  Speaker 7: were excited because of how invested they were in the
• 17:09
  Speaker 7: new Pact twelve.
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: You know, c W came back.
• 17:13
  Speaker 7: And and wanted me to continue, and and I just
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: I just thought there was there was room for more
• 17:20
  Speaker 7: growth at USA, and as it turns out there was.
• 17:22
  Speaker 7: It was a multi year deal and and an opportunity
• 17:25
  Speaker 7: to call college basketball too, which is something I've been
• 17:27
  Speaker 7: wanting to do for for a few years now.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to just jump to that real fast
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: because you mentioned it. You're a great high school basketball player,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: and the fact that you're going to get to do
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: a couple of college basketball games here or there, that's
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: got to be a ton of fun. How excited to
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: you for that?
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: Oh?
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: Through the roof. You know, I did some did.
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: Some college basketball games for Westwood one, uh, to get
• 17:47
  Speaker 7: some on tape, and you know, I kind of become
• 17:52
  Speaker 7: disillusioned with the state of the play of basketball. My
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: son's most likely going to play a lot of basketball.
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: It's probably going to be like six nine. So I
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: you know, I knew that I was going to have
• 18:03
  Speaker 7: to to have a different perspective when it came to
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: the basketball aspect of things. So I thought maybe if
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: I started analyzing it, it would it would look different
• 18:13
  Speaker 7: to me and I wouldn't be so you know, distance
• 18:17
  Speaker 7: from from what it was when I played.
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: And and sure enough, that's what that was. The ticket.
• 18:22
  Speaker 7: You know, really kind of got analytical with it, you know,
• 18:24
  Speaker 7: watching the game, analyzing it, calling it as a color commentator.
• 18:29
  Speaker 7: And and so I knew I wanted to do that
• 18:32
  Speaker 7: and a.
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: Lot of people don't know.
• 18:33
  Speaker 7: At Washington State, I walked out of the basketball team
• 18:35
  Speaker 7: my freshman year and uh from coach Eastman and made
• 18:39
  Speaker 7: the team and uh and so uh that was really
• 18:43
  Speaker 7: exciting time for me. Got to be the practice squad player,
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: go up against you know, Mark Hendrickson and Isaac Fontaine
• 18:50
  Speaker 7: and that whole crew.
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: That was a lot of fun for me.
• 18:53
  Speaker 7: Also, you know, kind of showed me that I probably
• 18:56
  Speaker 7: couldn't do basketball for a living though it was my
• 18:59
  Speaker 7: faceavorite sport.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: And now I get to do it. I think, you know,
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: I get.
• 19:06
  Speaker 7: To do anywhere from five to six games for the
• 19:07
  Speaker 7: back twelve and then plenty more with the Atlantic ten
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: Conference out here on the East coast.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: That's awesome. Ryan Leaf joining us right now. Little known
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: fact people may not remember this years. I want to
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: say the first venture that you got into in terms
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: of football analysis was back with my old co host
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: and me. We were doing some shows down in Tacoma.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Life I'll just say this. We all know life got
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: in the way and things happened, and Ryan got away
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: from it for a while. But I remember having you
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: on a few times down there and thinking this dude
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: can do it like this guy, this guy has the
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: ability to and you had never done anything. You did
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: a little RADI with us on Fridays for a few
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: weeks when in football seem like this guy's got it
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: and you had a passion for it. It was so cool.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: It was right after you were finished coaching, I think,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: and that kind of all the things are going on.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: But I remember thinking, despite all that, this guy's got
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: this guy's a good analyst, and now you get to
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: do it in the conference that is reborn as the
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Packed Twelve. But a lot of athletes want to get
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: into broadcasting, but you know, you've got to immerse yourself
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: into it. You've got to you've got to kind of
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: sink your teeth into it. You've got to put the
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: work in as well. What made you decide, hey, this
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: is something I really want to do. I mean, obviously
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: there's a paycheck and stuff like that, but Ron, what
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: made you say, Hey, I'm gonna I'm gonna do all
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: the work, the prep work for every week for games.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: It is immense. I mean it's like studying for finals
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: every week. What what made you kind of say, hey,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: I still have this this fire to do this.
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: I think it was because It was so relatable to
• 20:31
  Speaker 7: what I'd done my whole life in preparation, you know,
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: watching film, you know, preparing for you know, you.
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: Know, teams and schemes.
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: And things and back and forth. It's the closest thing
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: I could I could find to like what a game
• 20:46
  Speaker 7: week was for me.
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: You know, watch the film.
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: The only difference is is when you leave the stadium
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: at night, you never leave with an l you know,
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: and that's that's pretty cool. Yeah, I do like that part.
• 20:59
  Speaker 7: You know, And listen, this is, you know, something.
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: That not everybody's cut out for.
• 21:07
  Speaker 7: You have to be able to explain to grandma and
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: grandpa in layman's terms, what happened on each and every play.
• 21:13
  Speaker 7: If you get two in the weeds, people don't know
• 21:15
  Speaker 7: what the heck you're talking about. If you're too nerdy
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: or not nerdy enough, you know, some people are up
• 21:22
  Speaker 7: in arms about it.
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: I just regardless of score, regardless of who's in, what
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: two teams are.
• 21:28
  Speaker 7: Playing, I just call the football, you know, I call
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: what I see, and I liken it to when I
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: watched football growing up with my dad.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: Dad was kind of like the play by play guy.
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: He would kind of say what was going on at
• 21:41
  Speaker 7: first and ten Ryan at the forty yard line, and
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: when the play was over, I'd kind of break it
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: down on what happened. And so when I'm talking to
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: a lot of new guys that are coming into the
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: color analyst side of things.
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: That's usually the advice I give them.
• 21:55
  Speaker 7: I said, you know what, remember what it was like
• 21:59
  Speaker 7: to watch football with your dad on the couch, And
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: that's how.
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: I call That's how I call my football games.
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: And it's really worked out for me, you know, and
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: and I really love to do it. And to your point,
• 22:14
  Speaker 7: you don't get paid. You really don't get paid anything
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: to do this, to be honest with unless you're unless
• 22:18
  Speaker 7: you're the number one team for the networks making million
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: dollars a game, you're you don't really get paid a
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: lot of money.
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: To do this.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Tony. Tony Romo doesn't need the fifteen hundred dollars scan,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: is what you're saying.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: Uh, yeah, he doesn't mean that.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Ryan Leaf jays, well, I think to the art of
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: it especially, and this is why I like your work
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: on CW is that you mentioned the fine line. Because
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: there's guys that are and men and women that will
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: do an analyst role, and all they'll do is regurgitate
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: what we just saw, you know, like they'll just they're
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: like they're they're like doing a replay. I don't want that.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: I want to know why, like why why did they?
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: You know?
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: And and you don't have to get too far in
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: the weeds. And I think you do a good job
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: of balancing that as well. Ryan Leaf joining us. All right,
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: So the new PAC twelve, it's not certainly not the
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: old PAC twelve. But what Wazoo and Oregon State were
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: able to do, the teams they were able and the
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: schools they were able to attract Gonzaga for basketball is
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: a massive coup, by the way for the conference that
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: I think it's overlooked. The basketball conference will be sensational.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: But from a football standpoint, Kirby Moore, Wazoo, Boise State,
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: all those schools. I got some pretty decent coaches both
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: at Utah State and Colorado State with some NFL and
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: big time college football pedigrees going on. What are your
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: thoughts on the new PAC twelve. I mean, we'll have
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: to wait and see, but what are your thoughts on
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: this conference as it relaunches?
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: Love it? Love it, love what Teresa Gould has done.
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: You know, she went to the presidents and the athletic
• 23:37
  Speaker 7: directors at Washington State and Oregon State and said to them,
• 23:41
  Speaker 7: don't you dare even thinking about going somewhere else if
• 23:45
  Speaker 7: someone comes in, because I'm going to rebrand this conference
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: with you at the helm and we're going to make
• 23:51
  Speaker 7: it into something that's incredibly powerful.
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: And that's exactly what she did.
• 23:57
  Speaker 7: Because my alma mater, Washington, we'll have a better chance
• 24:01
  Speaker 7: of going to college football playoff for the foreseeable future
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: than they ever did.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: In the old Pac twelve.
• 24:07
  Speaker 7: Immediately this year they'll be I do believe the conference
• 24:11
  Speaker 7: champion of the Pac twelve will be in the college
• 24:14
  Speaker 7: football playoffs.
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: And so I love it. I love what she's done.
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: I'm so happy that she got her extension, and we're
• 24:22
  Speaker 7: going to do this together. You know, I'm me being
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: kind of the face and the lead analysts of the
• 24:26
  Speaker 7: network that has the most games of the conference. And
• 24:30
  Speaker 7: I will say this, we were the conference that we
• 24:32
  Speaker 7: were the network when picking the games this year. We
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: did not go and get the non conference games. We
• 24:38
  Speaker 7: went and got the best conference games from week to week,
• 24:43
  Speaker 7: and I think that made a huge impression on Teresa
• 24:46
  Speaker 7: Gould and everybody around the PAC twelve that we are
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: the network that are going to call the best conference
• 24:52
  Speaker 7: football games and not you know, grab one of those
• 24:55
  Speaker 7: non conference games because of the non conference opponent in
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: that situation.
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: And so I think they've done a heck of a job.
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: I think the conference is going to be incredibly competitive,
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: and you know, it really gives my alma mater and
• 25:08
  Speaker 7: Kirby Moore in his first year, a real shot if
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: they can go out and put together a solid conference season.
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: I just mentioned the USA Network's got the Boise State
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: Wazoo game October twenty fourth, Fresno State October third, and
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: Wazoo game. I mean, there's the first Oregan State game.
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: The cool thing about this Ryan for fans is that
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: with this new TV deal, we already know the game times.
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: And that's been like a source of massive consternation and
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: frustration for fans all across the country, not just in
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: the old PAC twelve, but across the country. It's like, Okay,
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: we know the first two weeks, but then we got
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: to wait like two weeks out to find out is
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: it a night game? Is it a day game are
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: we traveling the day before? I mean it's because of
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: this the new TV contract with CBS and USA and
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: a little bit with CW. We already know the game
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: times and a lot of them at three o'clock in the afternoon,
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: which is nice, which will be very cool as well.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: You mentioned Kirby. Have you had a chance to meet
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: our new coach over there in Pullman and impressions of
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: him so far?
• 26:00
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, he was he reached out immediately and
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: he had me out last.
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: Week in fact, to speak to the team.
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: And so ironically enough, I've spoken to seventy nine schools
• 26:10
  Speaker 7: in this country, and it was the first time I'd
• 26:13
  Speaker 7: been back to Washington State out of those seventy nine schools.
• 26:16
  Speaker 7: So it was really it was really powerful for me
• 26:20
  Speaker 7: to be back home.
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: Kirby of course growing up in Washington well versed and
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: well aware of my career at Washington State and knew
• 26:29
  Speaker 7: how much you know, Kellen his brother looked up to
• 26:33
  Speaker 7: me when he was growing up and ultimately.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: Went on to play in college himself.
• 26:36
  Speaker 7: And so I just there's a Montana kid who's our
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: offensive coordinator, Matt Miller, who grew up and helda just
• 26:43
  Speaker 7: down the road from where I did in Montana.
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: He told me a story about my.
• 26:47
  Speaker 7: Brother was playing in the state championship game and he
• 26:52
  Speaker 7: was on the sideline as a ball boy. That's how
• 26:54
  Speaker 7: young he was at the time of watching Brady Leaf
• 26:57
  Speaker 7: toss it all over the yard there in Montana. So
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: really really impressed with with you know, with what he's
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: brought to the table. But listen, I've been impressed with
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: every coach that's been hired since My Price, every one
• 27:09
  Speaker 7: of them.
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: I have really liked the hire.
• 27:13
  Speaker 7: I thought they were going to go and do a
• 27:15
  Speaker 7: great job.
• 27:18
  Speaker 5: You know. All it comes down to is the pullman
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: is whether or not you winner or not. It just
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: plain and simple.
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: You have to win for people to look at something
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: as a success, because you don't get the opportunity to say.
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: My Price had to start off a few seasons with
• 27:35
  Speaker 7: only like three wins to realize the how great a
• 27:39
  Speaker 7: coach he was, you know, and I love how you know,
• 27:45
  Speaker 7: everybody loves Mike Leach and his time at Washington State
• 27:49
  Speaker 7: and their resurgence they had, but they also didn't win anything.
• 27:52
  Speaker 7: You know, they never won a division. They never want
• 27:54
  Speaker 7: a conference championship, and so I want to get back
• 27:57
  Speaker 7: to winning the conference championship, which hasn't happened I think.
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: Since two thousand and then three.
• 28:01
  Speaker 7: And so it's important for for Kirby Moore his staff
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: to understand what the most important thing is a year
• 28:08
  Speaker 7: and year out, and that's to win the Pac twelve
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: conference and then the chips will fall as they may.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Right with us, you know, as wild as it and
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: just will tell you this. I kind of was the
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: same way a lot of us are, Hey, we we
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: love named the guy who's here, whether I mean hell
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Rollo for a couple of times, was on board for
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: all of them. I was the one guy wasn't doing.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Jessica attest to this was the guy last year because
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: he came in studio and he sat across from us.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: We did an interview and it's like, dude, you're talking
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: to two koogs like I'm I'm I'm I'm hosting a
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: show in Seattle. And he kind of went and he
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: didn't look at me one time. Ryan, he looked at
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: his phone the entire time we're doing the interview. Jimmy
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: Rogers did and I was like, I love, I really
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: like Jimmy. Yeah, I was, it was. It was a
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: weird I had a weird vibe from him. That was
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: the only guy I can say.
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: Hell.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: I got along with Rollo for a while, but I
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: called him the thousand miles there.
• 28:58
  Speaker 7: I reckon, I recommended to Pat Shun, you know. So,
• 29:04
  Speaker 7: so yeah, I'm there at you. I really like Kimmy,
• 29:06
  Speaker 7: I did.
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 29:07
  Speaker 7: And Uh, I thought he did an unbelievable job last
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: year with a roster and a schedule that was absolutely brutal.
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: And uh and so you know, I just listen. I
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: know that guys aren't gonna stick around. I just do.
• 29:23
  Speaker 7: And so I thank them for their time there, and
• 29:26
  Speaker 7: I wish them good luck and the next man up.
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: In my opinion, yeah, I got you. I got you.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: It's crazy you'd never because I see you speaking to
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: schools across the country. You'd never spoken at Wazoo. No,
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: like Leice didn't do that.
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: You know, he didn't have uh past players really around
• 29:44
  Speaker 7: or or a part of anything. And then Rollo there
• 29:48
  Speaker 7: was the whole COVID stuff, so no one could be
• 29:50
  Speaker 7: in or anything like that. Yeah, and then uh and
• 29:54
  Speaker 7: then Jake, Uh. His answer to me was they just
• 29:57
  Speaker 7: didn't have any money to bring me in, and I
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: was like, I don't need much to come speak to
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: my alma mater. I just probably need my flight taking
• 30:04
  Speaker 7: care of and some lotchem But Kirby, Kirby jumps Kirby
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: jumped right on it, you know. And I also think
• 30:09
  Speaker 7: it all has a lot to do with your chief
• 30:11
  Speaker 7: of staff and Dan de Riot Van de Wriot is unbelievable.
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: He was at San Jose for years.
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: He was at h at Oregon State with with Jonathan Smith,
• 30:23
  Speaker 7: with Jonathan at Michigan State, and now he's the chief
• 30:25
  Speaker 7: of staff there, you know, and at Washington State, and
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: a lot of times it has a lot to do
• 30:29
  Speaker 7: with that guy. He has the year of the head coach.
• 30:31
  Speaker 7: He's the guy that helps build uh, you know, culture
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: around the programs and stuff like that. And so I
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: was just glad happy to be back. And you know,
• 30:40
  Speaker 7: it's you know, Pullman is a very interesting thing for
• 30:46
  Speaker 7: me because of, you know, some of the things I
• 30:50
  Speaker 7: got myself into around my addiction, the decisions and choices
• 30:54
  Speaker 7: I made, you know, when I got out of prison,
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: the mandate was for Bill Moose, don't have Ryan anywhere
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: new here. Washington State stuff, and and then when Pat
• 31:04
  Speaker 7: Shun came in, he completely reversed that. He put me
• 31:06
  Speaker 7: in the Hall of Fame. He wanted me to be
• 31:08
  Speaker 7: a part of everything and be back and and things
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: like that. And then when a McCoy took over, same
• 31:15
  Speaker 7: same thing, you know, wanted me to be around.
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: It just really.
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: Depends on who's at the helm and what someone sees that.
• 31:21
  Speaker 7: And we saw what Bill Moose did and now he
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: left in the middle of the night. So yep, you know,
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: I really don't. We're on the same much about what.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: We're on the same page there, buddy, Hey, we're on
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: the same page. We're on the same page there with
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: that one. I can tell you that right now. So well, listen,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: you're back, and all I know is this, I'm glad
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: to have a Wazu guy. I'm glad to have a
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: PAC twelve guy, but specifically a Wazoo guy that's on
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: the new part of the new PAC twelve and maybe
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: more importantly, uh you know, not somebody from a school
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: that left the PAC twelve, if you know what I mean.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: So it's good to have you aboard. You'll carry the

• 33:13
  Speaker 2: I listen. I didn't want to put him in it.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: When when the Pac twelve or Pack two for the
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: last couple of years was on CW. Nothing may be
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: sicker to my stomach than watching dudes on there making
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: money off of those two schools and that CW deal
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: than people that were part of schools that went elsewhere.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: And I know that's very petty of me. Whatever, I
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: don't care.
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: You're a code man.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: I listen to me. It either should have been somebody
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: from another conference, and they had a couple guys from
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: the conference, But I didn't need to see Lincoln or
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: Nigel on there. Your school left, Go work for the
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: Big ten network, Go do that. Yeah, especially guys that
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: continually trashed our program. Nigel's at the top of the
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: list of that.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: The words with.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Him like he loved trashing on Wazoo and and then
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, you're gonna make a paycheck off him.
• 34:07
  Speaker 8: Screw you.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Lincoln Kennedy doesn't even know Wazoo exists. Hell, he doesn't.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: He didn't know his he might be the worst analyst
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: in football, and I'm like, no, man, no like Yogi
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Roth still makes him money off of Wazoo for fundraising,
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: which I think is a joke. You know, he's a
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Big ten network guy. He's not there's nothing to do
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: with our conference, you know, beat feed, but he goes
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: somewhere else. I got no time for you guys. But
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: so I'm glad. I'm glad they took Ryan. And listen again,
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: it doesn't have to be somebody from this conference necessarily,
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: but don't make it from schools that left elsewhere, especially
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: to schools that like to rip on you know, R
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: two Land Grant schools in Oregon State and Washington State.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: So I'm glad they picked Ryan. That's good and be fun.
• 34:45

• 38:22
  Speaker 2: big day. I don't four nine four five one on
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: the Tacoma Dodge text line. I think tomorrow is a
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: significant day for Seattle sports. And you know, soccer is
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: this strange sport speaking of catching strays, that catches a
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: lot of them. You and I think I've found with
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: soccer there's now World Cup changes things a wee bit,
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: just a little bit. But the interesting thing with the
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: World Cup with soccer, you either love it, passionate about it,
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: get up at four am on the weekend to watch
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: European games. You have your European team. You've attached yourself too.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, just look at Jackson and Anders here. I
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: think our Buddy Rich sales guy out there. These guys
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: all have their teams right that they and and they're
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: just diehards. Or you're the guy or woman this says,
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: oh hey soccer, stupid soarer he just floah blah blah
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: blah blah. Okay, like there's not a lot of in between.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: It doesn't feel like I'm an e I'm a tweeener.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: I think I would listen. I grew up playing the game,
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: coaching the game, love the game I have. I fell
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: out of love with the game. I'll be honest with
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: you for a while, and it'll never be what it
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: once was to me when I was growing up and
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: playing it. I kind of think I played it because
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: that was like the sport I was best at. Like
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: so you know, like like you sometimes evolve into like, okay,
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: do you love this sport? Like my son loves basketball,
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: he's better at football, like so he ended up playing football, right,
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: And but but the for me, I I appreciate the game.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: I appreciate the athletic I appreciate everything about it. So
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: like you'll never hear me the one to spare it.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: But there are people that, oh, I just get your thought.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: I think tomorrow is it's it just goes way past
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: the game. It's it's the match itself is going to
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: be special on our turf. Here the US men's national
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: team playing a World Cup game. It's the biggest sporting event,
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: arguably the most important sporting event to the world. Maybe
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: not to us, but to the world it is. It's
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: bigger than the Olympics. Olympics are for the most part,
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: individual sports. Yes there's team sports and they matter, but
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: really this is this is the most important sporting event
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: in the world. It's the most watched by a landslide.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: So all those things come into play, and the game
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: is gonna be played here in our stadium. The international
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: eyes focused in on Seattle. We're going to have, as
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: they would say, the Chamber of Commerce day. It's gonna
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: be gorgeous outside, a little bit warm, but you know,
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: warm for us is very comfortable for the rest of
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: the world. Yeah, So it's gonna be it's gonna be spectacular.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: And I mean, you're doing the March of the match tomorrow.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: It'll be cool as hell. I can't wait to hear
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: about it as well. There's gonna be well, sixty seven
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: sixty whatever, however many they can cram into into Lumenfield
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: are going to.
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: Be in the stadium.
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: I don't I'm not the old trust me, but they're
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: going to be crammed in there. So let's just say
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: set sixty eight thousand people there. There's gonna be what
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: two or three times that many people just around.
• 41:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: I think everyone's going to have a really good time
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: downtown too. Like if you can't get in, if you
• 41:38
  Speaker 4: didn't have the I think.
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: The get him price was like twenty two hundred.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: Last week checked it was like twenty two hundred.
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: Ye.
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And if you can't do that though it reminds
• 41:48
  Speaker 4: me of certain Seahawks events as well, where you know,
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: the the Fail Mary game for instance.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: I was down at FX Marcrory's.
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: Oh really for that game because my friends thought that
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: they could scalp tickets. They're you know, comedians, dudes that
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: are from here but don't live here, and they thought
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: they could just get them off the street.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: And everyone wanted like five hundred bucks.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they just thought it was going to be easy,
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: and so I was like, well, we'll go over here,
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: and it was just packed with people who and fans
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: being together.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: Well, I mentioned this is SOFTI the other day. The
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: you know, we've kind of evolved a little bit and
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: kind of come back to where we used to be.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: It used to be you know, for years, especially when
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: this station first started. But you know, I just look
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: back like late nineties, early two thousands up until like
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: you know, probably eight or nine years ago, if there
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: was a big sporting event, you went somewhere to watch it.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: A lot of times it was just because you wanted
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: to go watch on a bigger screen than you would
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: have at home.
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's before we had those jugging and custis.
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: Now now everyone has an HD TV or a four
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: K TV, and it's just more sometimes just more comfortable
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: or easier at home. Right, So it's a little bit
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: different now than it used to be. But now, like
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: events like this you see going back in time, people
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: want to go watch it with other people. You want
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: to watch with a fence. We saw that last year
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: with the Seahawks in the playoffs as well, and certainly
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. Like all of a sudden, you're I'm
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: gonna go to one of the casinos. I would urge
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: you to go to Stokcloma Casino tomorrow. They got it
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: to Hawk's Peak, sixty three televisions, et cetera. But you
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: go watch it there or if you don't want to
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: do that, or go to a restaurant. I mean, the
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: halls are great for watching soccer. Big sponsors of our
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: radio station, Twin Peaks, love those guys. Brad's a great dude.
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: He's helping sponsor the golf tournament this year with some stuff.
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: Go down to Twin Peaks, whatever it might be or
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: what you're doing tomorrow, you go watch go to the waterfront,
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: hang out with fans from all over the world and
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: watch it on the screens down there or just wander around,
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: just get the vibe. I think tomorrow is gonna be sensational,
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: So get your thoughts four nine, four to five one,
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: or you're looking forward to USA Australia and maybe as
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: much as anything, kind of the the coming together. God,
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: our world is so divided now, like we all know that,
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: and I don't think anybody listening or even the guy
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: talking right now is completely immune from you know, casting
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: stones that. We just live in a very divided world
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: and really divided country. People are judged on their political
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: affiliations one way or the other. Both sized judge both sides,
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: judge right, judges the left. Left judge is the right.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: If you're left, you're bad, You're right you're bad. Blah blahah,
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: all these things. It just it's all about what I've
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: seen just around the country and certainly here around Seattle.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: This World Cup things kind of brought people together and
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: so far not God, so far so good.
• 44:29
  Speaker 4: So I mean I watched the Australia's match, Australia's first
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: match in Australia.
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah we are they going nuts?
• 44:35
  Speaker 9: We were.
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: It was awesome because, like I.
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: Was saying earlier, I watched the NBA finals the Knicks
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: one and we just went to a sports bar waiting
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: for our flight. We're just hanging out and all of
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: a sudden, just yellow and Green marching in and I'm like,
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: oh my gosh, I forgot the Australia couple that that
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: game was on, and we.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: Just became friends with all these random people.
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: That's why I was saying that for those who are
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: coming to root for Australia, I think you'll have a
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: really good time with the people that are coming to
• 45:03
  Speaker 4: root for them.
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: Regards what time are you getting down there tomorrow?
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: Probably about seven am?
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: Wow, yeah they almost have to wright.
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: Yes, probably, Well they're they're closing down the streets at eight, so.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's yeah, yeah, I will My little pro
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: tip I mentioned this before, it's not as bad as
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: I think people thought it would be, Like really, it
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: really isn't as bad as people.
• 45:22
  Speaker 4: Also feel like people might have prepped for this because
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: the Mariners chose to continue to play on Friday night,
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: but it's so far apart in timing.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we might see some double dipping that
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: I say all that tomorrow will be a little bit
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: different later on because when on Monday there's no Mariner's game.
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: So the game led out at two thirty. They got
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: people out of there by four. It was fine. Tomorrow
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: might buble.
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: Skatee, but you know what, prep I think people, you know,
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: get ready for this kind of thing.
• 45:47

• 48:16
  Speaker 2: we go. All right, you know, lots to get to today.
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: You know, Sarah's joining us from the athletic. I want
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: to I'm going to start here because I saw that
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: you guys mentioned this and talked about it on your
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: on the podcast The Rates and Burrels, and and I'll
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: be honest with you, I'm not fully aware of what
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: this place is, but you touched it on a on
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: a place called drive Line, which started here in Seattle.
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: They got locations in Arizona and Florida I think as
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: well right now. And and you guys talked about like
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: why people are against it or having a problem with
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: drive Line. What was the story there.
• 48:50
  Speaker 10: Well, Boston, the Red Sox prominently had the director of
• 48:55
  Speaker 10: Drive Line Cawbo. Do you want of the co founders
• 48:58
  Speaker 10: as an advisor. They have drive Line guys as the
• 49:02
  Speaker 10: director of hitting and the hitting coach in the Major League.
• 49:05
  Speaker 10: They have drive Line philosophies up and down in the
• 49:09
  Speaker 10: minor leagues.
• 49:10
  Speaker 5: For fit pitching.
• 49:11
  Speaker 10: And before the season started they were, you know, in
• 49:16
  Speaker 10: a lot of ways, people were jealous of their high
• 49:19
  Speaker 10: end hitting prospects, Roman Anthony and Christian Campbell and Marcelo Meyer.
• 49:25
  Speaker 10: They had some of the best hitting prospects in the game.
• 49:27
  Speaker 10: They've been churning out really good pitchers and Peyton totally
• 49:30
  Speaker 10: and Connolly early, and you know, in some ways it
• 49:32
  Speaker 10: looks like, you know, you go back a year and
• 49:35
  Speaker 10: everyone was super happy with it. This year, however, the
• 49:38
  Speaker 10: Red Sox have been really bad, and their offense in
• 49:41
  Speaker 10: particular has been bad, and Cole Body stepped away from
• 49:46
  Speaker 10: the team, and Bill Simmons said that was the first
• 49:49
  Speaker 10: good news about the Red Sox this year. So the
• 49:52
  Speaker 10: Drive Line has become a bit of a bogey man.
• 49:54
  Speaker 10: It's just something that people blame for the advancement of analytics.
• 50:01
  Speaker 10: In player development and player uh you know, coaching. But
• 50:06
  Speaker 10: to me, what it means is just evidence based and
• 50:09
  Speaker 10: constraints based coaching, which means, you know, if you're going
• 50:13
  Speaker 10: to do a drill, you do the research on the drill.
• 50:16
  Speaker 5: Your research.
• 50:17
  Speaker 10: You can look at like how a body moves, and
• 50:19
  Speaker 10: then you can do the drill. And you can do
• 50:20
  Speaker 10: the drill for a week and you come back, how's
• 50:22
  Speaker 10: the body move? Oh, it moves differently. That's what we wanted.
• 50:26
  Speaker 10: And so you can chase. You can check each of
• 50:28
  Speaker 10: your drills. You can you can research that you know,
• 50:31
  Speaker 10: they have like a stuff plus like I do. They
• 50:33
  Speaker 10: can say, oh, what makes curveballs good? Well, we research
• 50:36
  Speaker 10: stuff plus and this is a good curveball. This would
• 50:39
  Speaker 10: increase your stuff plus. So using analytics to coach players,
• 50:43
  Speaker 10: you know, checking that every drill you do does actually
• 50:46
  Speaker 10: do something. They found that like, for example, the towel.
• 50:49
  Speaker 6: Drill that everyone does, it doesn't do anything.
• 50:52
  Speaker 10: So you know they they they do this research and
• 50:56
  Speaker 10: you know, and constraints based means instead of me telling you, hey,
• 50:59
  Speaker 10: move your like this, I designed the drill that makes
• 51:02
  Speaker 10: you move your heads like that so that your body
• 51:05
  Speaker 10: solves the problem. Itself, and so those are the two
• 51:10
  Speaker 10: main things. That's just you know, using research and evidence
• 51:13
  Speaker 10: to plan player development. I don't think that's that doesn't
• 51:17
  Speaker 10: sound that controversial to me. I mean I would want
• 51:19
  Speaker 10: my player development team. I would want my coaches to
• 51:22
  Speaker 10: have evidence that what they believe is true is true.
• 51:25
  Speaker 10: You know, like I believe in researching things and finding evidence.
• 51:30
  Speaker 10: So I don't find that to be I think that
• 51:33
  Speaker 10: they're kind of a boogeyman for what's a bad season
• 51:36
  Speaker 10: in Boston.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: Almost like an easy scapegoat, right, Like it's as you know,
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: and it's like, well it must be drive lines fault.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: I mean this play started as a small place in Kent,
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: just outside of Seattle that kind of catered to kids
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: playing baseball and you can indoor hit. I mean, we
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: live in a shockingly in a climate where may not
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: be conducd to playing baseball outdoors for a few months
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: of the year, kids hitting indoors, getting some good coaching,
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: and there's a million of the facilities around the area,
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: like in probably like a lot of cities, but we
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: have a lot of them around this area. But they
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: have elevated and taken it to the next level where
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: there's three locations. They've got guys that are say young winners,
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: all stars, four MVPs have worked out there. I mean,
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: you go on and on. Whatever they're doing is fine.
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: It is interesting because maybe baseball is resistant to this,
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: you know, and a lot of sports want to keep
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: everything in house. So other sports they want you hockey
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: for example, and I can relate to this, they want
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: you going. They have no problem at NHL team with
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: you going and seeing a power skating coach in Saskatchewan
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: in the summer, like they have no problem with They
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: want you to They would encourage you to do that
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: stuff like that. Baseball seems to have that same thing.
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: Like if I'm an organization, you know when I want
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: my guys getting as much information or maybe a different
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: set of eyes on you as possible.
• 52:48
  Speaker 10: And you know, I guess we're runs into things. Sometimes
• 52:52
  Speaker 10: the team have a plan for you and then they
• 52:54
  Speaker 10: have to let you go away for you know, three months,
• 52:58
  Speaker 10: and that they hope that you follow of their plan.
• 53:00
  Speaker 10: They try to stay in touch. They'll be phone calls,
• 53:03
  Speaker 10: they'll be maybe you log in somewhere and log what
• 53:06
  Speaker 10: you're doing. But to some extent it's hands off for
• 53:10
  Speaker 10: three months. So I think they would much rather you
• 53:12
  Speaker 10: went to a drive line or a tread or one
• 53:14
  Speaker 10: of these places and had somebody there a coach major League,
• 53:18
  Speaker 10: like a very good quality coach, h that's using data
• 53:22
  Speaker 10: in the same way. They will every once in a
• 53:24
  Speaker 10: while they'll come into conflict. And I'm not saying that
• 53:27
  Speaker 10: you can't make mistakes. You know, Seattle actually has really
• 53:31
  Speaker 10: good pitching development.
• 53:32
  Speaker 5: We can say that, right, I think. So, yeah, they developed, you.
• 53:36
  Speaker 10: Know, a bunch of starters, a bunch of relievers. One
• 53:39
  Speaker 10: of the main tenants is that you know, there's stuff
• 53:41
  Speaker 10: plus is very similar to mine. They've they've mentioned one
• 53:44
  Speaker 10: time to Poto mentioned on on the air a stuff
• 53:47
  Speaker 10: plus number for Matt Brash's slider. I was like, oh
• 53:49
  Speaker 10: my god, that's the same number I have. So, you know,
• 53:52
  Speaker 10: like there's a there's a very similar model. And one
• 53:57
  Speaker 10: of the things that I noticed was, oh wow, sweepers, man, Like,
• 54:02
  Speaker 10: you know, they stuff plus love sweepers. We should teach sweepers.
• 54:05
  Speaker 10: What did Seattle do They taught everybody sweepers. Well, this
• 54:09
  Speaker 10: is the mark of I think, where you kind of
• 54:13
  Speaker 10: go from being evidence based and like, you know, I
• 54:16
  Speaker 10: know everything to like the real the real great, the
• 54:21
  Speaker 10: best coaches and the best player development systems realize, not
• 54:25
  Speaker 10: realize when they're wrong, but like realize there's nuance like
• 54:29
  Speaker 10: you and you'll learn something in the future. So we
• 54:31
  Speaker 10: learned about stuff plus on the sweeper was it has
• 54:35
  Speaker 10: big platoon splits, It's hard to command. It's a really
• 54:38
  Speaker 10: big pitch. And and when we learn you know, Bryce Miller,
• 54:43
  Speaker 10: he's over the top when he throws it. They can
• 54:45
  Speaker 10: see it, you know, because it comes from a slightly
• 54:47
  Speaker 10: different release point. They could hitters can see it. And
• 54:50
  Speaker 10: what do we learn from Logan Gilbert, Well, he can't
• 54:52
  Speaker 10: really command it, so it's useless to him, you know.
• 54:55
  Speaker 10: And how many people still throw the sweeper they learned
• 54:57
  Speaker 10: in the in the minor leagues for Seattle, I don't know.
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: Wu, Yeah, yeah, maybe probably wou Miller.
• 55:04
  Speaker 10: They all learned it. Yeah yeah, Wu Miller still throws
• 55:07
  Speaker 10: it a little bit, but he's changed it now. They
• 55:09
  Speaker 10: all throw splitters, you know. So it's like, you know,
• 55:12
  Speaker 10: there's there's you have to you have to have some
• 55:15
  Speaker 10: humble there's a humble quality to you know. I'm learning
• 55:18
  Speaker 10: as much as I can. I'm teaching you what I
• 55:20
  Speaker 10: have based on evidence, and some of them may be wrong,
• 55:24
  Speaker 10: and we have to move on when it's wrong and
• 55:26
  Speaker 10: like figure out what's actually working on the field. And
• 55:29
  Speaker 10: so maybe when people are yelling, sometimes they think, oh,
• 55:31
  Speaker 10: you're just you're just using the numbers. You're not looking
• 55:34
  Speaker 10: at what's working on the field. And maybe that's a
• 55:38
  Speaker 10: good critique, but it's not a critique of everybody. It's
• 55:40
  Speaker 10: maybe a critique of certain coaches.
• 55:42
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 55:43
  Speaker 10: I mean, Seattle's done, just done a really good example
• 55:45
  Speaker 10: of like, hey, we believe in research, we've done it
• 55:47
  Speaker 10: this way and we've been able to pivot and you know,
• 55:50
  Speaker 10: they're not all still throwing sweepers, you know when it's
• 55:53
  Speaker 10: not working for them.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: You know, Sarah spots by Georgetown Breuen joining us, you know,
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: one is an interesting thing. I think we all agree
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: Mariners know what they're doing for the most part with
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: pitchers and developing and so on and so forth. Hell,
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: they got two of the best prospects down in the
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: minor leagues right now, which we expect to probably see
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: at some point this year. They also have six starters,
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: and you know they're going back to the piggyback piggyback piggyback,
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: but it's a new version of the piggyback where apparently
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: everyone gets to be like I guess guys felt left
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: out right, maybe Miller and Castillo doing it, so you know,
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: Gilbert and Wu and Kirby and and you know Handcock,
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: they all felt left out. So now now we've gone
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: from a piggyback to a six man rotation, to a
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: piggyback that will include everyone at some point in rotation
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: getting doubled up. You do this for a living. This
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: is your world, pitching and especially kind of studying all things,
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: whether it be stuff. Plus, I don't know what column
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: you have piggyback in in your database, but you must
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: have a thought on it for us.
• 56:55
  Speaker 10: Well, actually my thought is a little bit less to
• 56:58
  Speaker 10: do with analytics and and numbers here. I think it
• 57:04
  Speaker 10: says a lot about camaraderie and like a tight group.
• 57:10
  Speaker 5: One thing.
• 57:11
  Speaker 10: I haven't written this yet, but it's like on my
• 57:14
  Speaker 10: to do list. Whenever I talk to guys in that rotation,
• 57:18
  Speaker 10: they talk about other guys, yes, and you know they
• 57:23
  Speaker 10: they've all learned from each other, like the splitter came
• 57:26
  Speaker 10: from Robbie Ray and a little bit and then Logan
• 57:29
  Speaker 10: Gilbert went to drive Line and perfected it, and then
• 57:31
  Speaker 10: Bryce Millers like, man, that splitter looks pretty good. Let
• 57:33
  Speaker 10: me try it, you know, so you know, and and
• 57:36
  Speaker 10: when I talked to Brian Wooe, He's like, well, there
• 57:38
  Speaker 10: are arm slots of different but I do talk to
• 57:40
  Speaker 10: Castillo about his change up grip and what he's doing.
• 57:44
  Speaker 10: And you know, they they all totally respect. Kirby is
• 57:47
  Speaker 10: like the command God, you know, so they each they're
• 57:50
  Speaker 10: they're pretty tight knit. So what I see out of
• 57:53
  Speaker 10: this is, you know, hey, let's not make Castillo who
• 57:56
  Speaker 10: they revere. You know, Let's not make him you'll like
• 58:01
  Speaker 10: left out or you know, like made a scapegoat for anything.
• 58:05
  Speaker 5: Let's all do it. You know.
• 58:06
  Speaker 10: It's kind of like the what is it in that
• 58:07
  Speaker 10: movie where the kid piece his pants? So Adam Sandler pieces.
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: Yes, Billy Madison, Yeah, he goes back to elementary school.
• 58:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you.
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: Consider me, Miles Davis.
• 58:23
  Speaker 2: Oh that's good, very good, that's very good analogy.
• 58:29
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I would assume that the coaching staff and the
• 58:32
  Speaker 10: and the Mariners you know, on some level, like you know,
• 58:36
  Speaker 10: wouldn't like it because you're like, well, i'd like Logan
• 58:39
  Speaker 10: Gilbert to pitch as much as he's great, you know,
• 58:42
  Speaker 10: like I want to get the best innings for my
• 58:45
  Speaker 10: best pitchers. But they also know that they're going to
• 58:47
  Speaker 10: go you know that this is going to go down
• 58:49
  Speaker 10: to September, and they want to keep everybody as fresh
• 58:52
  Speaker 10: as possible. So that's you know, that's a good thing.
• 58:55
  Speaker 10: It's going to be a nightmare for scheduling in terms
• 58:57
  Speaker 10: of scheduling, you know, bullpen figuring out, you know, when
• 59:03
  Speaker 10: to do these things. I'm looking at a site here
• 59:06
  Speaker 10: that shows probables and it even shows opening pictures and
• 59:10
  Speaker 10: following pictures fangrafts, and they don't. They just gave up.
• 59:13
  Speaker 10: They just have Castillo and Miller as piggybacks and they
• 59:16
  Speaker 10: don't have all this I haven't even seen, Like, how
• 59:19
  Speaker 10: is it gonna work?
• 59:20
  Speaker 5: Have they said? No?
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: They just said. All they said all Hollanders kind of
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: said the other day is they said, hey, it's unanimous,
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: everyone agrees, which I'm gonna get back to in a second,
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: but right now, it's Miller Castillo next time, and then
• 59:33
  Speaker 2: we'll kind of a TBA like wo Woo's tonight. You know,
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: Gilbert was great the other night, cal back behind the
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: plate maybe made a difference for him. I mean, he
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: had one of his better outings in a while. But
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: they said the part about the unanimous thing got I
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: mean even even on the Athletic the wind Up, the
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: newsletter that we get every day, the wind Up, they
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: were saying, well, you know, kind of tongue in cheeks
• 59:51
  Speaker 2: shirt was unanimous, Like we're all kind of insinuating that.
• 59:54
  Speaker 2: But you brought something up that I think is true.
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: I think that that group is actually really tight, and
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: I think there is probably a little bit of a
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: selfless nature that goes with that and some teamwork and
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: some camaraderie amongst the starting pitching group. The problem is
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: they just have too many of them, you know, and
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: that's that's an embarrassment of riches that most teams would
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: love to have, but it ends up becoming a little
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: of bit problem. But I think you're right. I think
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: that that because they do. When you when you hear
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: guys talk logan Gilbert talks about Luis Castillo and George
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: Kirby talks about Bryce Miller or whatever it might be,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: I think there is something that that we we live
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: in a cynical world, right, Like, especially in sports. We
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 2: live in a cynical There's no way they could all
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: be on the same page. Maybe not one hundred percent
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: on the same page, but they all they all kind
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: of understand the bigger picture.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 8: Probably yeah. Yeah.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 10: And you know, for for the cries of like, you know,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 10: let's trade from pitching depth in Seattle, that that's been
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 10: a long term, you know solution. Oh we need bats,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 10: Let's let's trade one of these pitchers. We have these
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 10: two prospects of trade trade pitchers. I mean, the truest
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 10: thing in baseball is there is never such a thing
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 10: as too much pitching there. You cannot have too much
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 10: pitching depth. And anybody you could look at, you know,
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 10: I said before the season that the Mets and the
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 10: Red Sox had amazing pitching depth.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 6: Well they're using it all.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 10: Used and if you look at what they have left,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 10: not that much like Boston has like one more big
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 10: prospect who kind of popped up. Iron said, But they're
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 10: they're using everybody that they were supposed to use. The
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 10: Mets have kind of run out, you know, they're they're
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 10: they're gone. They've gone back to Sean and Iyah and
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 10: some of the guys that they that they were using
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 10: before because they went through the young guys and some
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 10: of them got hurt. So yeah, I would I would
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 10: suggest keep.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: It.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 10: It's Kate Anderson.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 2: Sloan, Yeah, the two guys. But Kate Anderson's the guys.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 10: I mean, Kate Anderson is the one that is more
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 10: consensus from what I've looked at. Ryan Sloan might be better.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 10: I don't know, So you know that's too I don't
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 10: want to trade from. And I don't like who are
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 10: you gonna pick out of the rotation. And it's easy
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 10: to say somebody like oh, well, Luis g well are
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 10: you going to get anything for him? And do you
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 10: have to pay? Throwing his salary down? And and you
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 10: know he's probably better than he's pitched this year, So
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 10: you know I I would not trade from any of
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 10: those eight guys.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: Actually, yeah, it's funny about Ryan Slan. I've heard other
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: people say the same thing, like, like, Ryan Sloan is
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: a guy that they like. I don't think either one
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 2: of those guys are touchable, but a lot of people
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: are saying the same thing that he his upside may
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: be higher than than Kate Anderson, which is insane to
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: think about that, right, now what both those guys.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 10: Comp I heard with Sho hee o Tani as a pitcher,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 10: I mean not as a hitter obviously.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: WHOA. Okay, well, you know what, can he come here today?
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: They can't rememb just got a little shit. Really okay,
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: I'm in on that situation. That's great, all right, tell
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: folks about the Rates and Meryls podcast.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 10: We're daily. Today we had May on and we talked
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 10: about miss distance, the new stat over it at at
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 10: Basall Savant. It's kind of cool because it just tells you,
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 10: like how many inches you missed by. But when you
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 10: look at it, you realize it's kind of like a
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 10: tunneling metric, because when do you miss by a lot?
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 10: You missed by a lot when you thought it was
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 10: something else. So why did they think of something else?
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 10: Probably because your fastball is super fast or it tunnels
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 10: well with that pitch or whatever it is. So we
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 10: thought that. You know, Andrew Abbott is a guy who
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 10: long has not made sense to the modelers and not
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 10: made sense, you know, to the predictive peripherals and stuff
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 10: like that. And he has a big miss distance on
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 10: a couple of pitches. So he tried to uncover what
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 10: this could be telling.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: Them very cool. Go check it out, subscribe rates and barrels.

  Speaker 2: Dammy power player, Home for the Crack and nine three
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: point three KJRFM. Kelly McCrimmon is the general manager of
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: the Vegas Golden Knights. He was asked about just the
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: fact that that Vegas is not a well liked team
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: around the NHL. One of those reasons is, among many,
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: they signed Carter Hart to a contract who was involved
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: in the Canadian junior hockey scandal north of the border,
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: the sexual assault scandal. Yes, he was found innocent, as
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: were the other players. Does that mean he was not
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: guilty of doing some things that were pretty gross and disgusting?
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: Probably not, but the NHL ruled he was eligible. They
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: were the one team that decided to sign and Vegas
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: was not a surprise. He was asked about that, So
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: this Kraken Fans take a close listen was Kelly mccrimin's
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: answer as to why he thinks Vegas isn't well liked.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 8: I think people have.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 14: A hard time explaining why we win as much as
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 14: we do. We've been to the Stanley Cup Finals three
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 14: times in nine years, and it's interesting. We went in
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 14: twenty eighteen, twenty twenty three, twenty twenty six. And what
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 14: that tells you is that's three completely different teams. You know,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 14: you've heard it all the way through those nine years,
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 14: all the expansion rules were so favorable. Well, Seattle KRACKN
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 14: had the same expansion rules, right and everybody says, oh, well,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 14: everybody wised up because of how well Vegas did well.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 14: I would argue that Seattle had almost three years to
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 14: get ready for expansion. We had eleven months. When Seattle
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 14: did expansion, the cap pressure across the NHL was commpletely
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 14: different than it was when we did expansion. You know,
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 14: some people like to explain, you know, the first part
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 14: of our history based on that. Then people think it's
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 14: because we had March don't get back surgery just for
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 14: fun in February, right. There's For me, it's it's a
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 14: jealousy and it's a people don't want to are uncomfortable
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 14: admitting that we've done a hell of a job. That's
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 14: what I honestly think, Chris. Players love playing here. You
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 14: you talked to our players yesterday. Our players love playing here.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 14: Jack made the point there wouldn't be a player in
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 14: the NHL that had Vegas on their no trade list.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 14: So the organization treats their players fantastic. The organization gives
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 14: our players every resource to be the best that they
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 14: can be as a person and as a player. And
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 14: and it's a great city to live. And as you
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 14: all know, it's it's easy out here with the you know,
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 14: with traffic, lifestyle, all of those things that go into it.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 14: But all those players would tell you the number one
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 14: thing is they have a chance to win. They have
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 14: a chance to win. So when you hear that a
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 14: person from another organization is interested in coming to Vegas,
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 14: the first reason they're interested in coming to Vegas is
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 14: because we win.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: That's that's why they want to come to Vegas.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 14: Because if that wasn't the case, you can go back
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 14: in the history of you know, tax free states and
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 14: sunny locations of some teams that struggled for years and
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 14: years and years that nobody wanted to go to. So
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 14: first and foremost people come here because we try to win.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 14: They like being on teams that try to win. There's
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 14: teams that there's players in the NHL that are on
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 14: teams that I don't think the players are confident the
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 14: team will win.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 6: So that's that for me, is.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 8: Is how I see it.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 14: Not gonna apologize for it.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: Chris, he was asked about Carter Hart and why people
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: don't like him.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 3: That's where he came up with, well, we don't like
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: other teams.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 2: Well here's the thing. The whole thing about the expansion
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 2: drafts and how it was handled the first time with
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 2: Vegas only and then the second time with Seattle. He's
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: he's the only person that's ever said that that Seattle
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: had an advantage in Vegas. Was it a disadvantage. It's
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 2: always been the opposite. And I think I'll go with
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: the with the common theme there that first of all,
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: sales coming out of a pandemic, I mean, scouting was different.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 2: I mean they had so many things going against them,
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: did Seattle. And by the way, Kelly and I like Kelly.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: I've known Kelly for a zillion years. He was in
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: Brandon when I was in the league. And they've done
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 2: a hell of a job. But they've also not done
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: it through the traditional way, which I think pisses people off.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 2: They don't draft, Their draft hasn't produced anything. Basically, what
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: they do is a trade for guy. I think sixteen
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 2: seventeen of the players out of twenty one twenty two
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: were guys they acquired via trade. And he's right in
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: the league that everyone has a no trade clause. He's
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: right because Vegas is a place that people will go play,
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: they want to live there. I get that one hundred percent.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 2: Get that much like they want to live in Florida
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: and Tampa. And you know those teams used to not win.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 2: They started winning and all of a sudden became destination spots.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: But I don't know, I think pretty pretty for Seattle
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 2: for the crack and to catch astray, for him to
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: kind of go down that road, I think he's a
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: little erroneous there. I think it's I think he's just wrong.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 2: The GMS did understand how that expansion draft works. The
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: second time around. They did did a better job of
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: protecting the right players and hiding contracts and doing things
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: like that. The second time around. Ron Francis was fighting
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 2: an uphill battle, as was his staff. The second time
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: around would have been a far different outcome. I think
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: if they would have both come in the league at
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: the same time. But Kelly, why people don't like Vegas
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: is because there's a greasy feel to Vegas because to
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: the team, whether it's signing Carter Hart, yeah, Mark Stone
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: had back surgery. You've stashed guys on long term injured
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: list and circumitted the salary cap forever, and good for you.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 2: If you can do within the rules, good for you.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 2: But come on, man, like you sign Carter Hart, you
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 2: bring in Torts, who's absolutely crappy to the media, and
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 2: then all of a sudden you're asking why people don't
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 2: like you, and you decide you're going to go that route.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 5: Whatever.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 3: It's because people are too stupid to understand why they win.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 3: That's essentially they do.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 2: And listen again, they do a good job. They done
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: a great job building that franchise up. But I think
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 2: he missed the point. Okay, well think right, Come back,

• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: a she's an honorary ASSI now because since she was

• 1:13:33
  Speaker 6: That's not that's not true, all right.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 13: I know Jess well enough to know that while she
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 13: may have some some sympathy and some spawn feelings like
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 13: when it comes down to it, it is her colors
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 13: run deep.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 3: I root for my people.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 2: There you go, all right, well you root for America.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 2: America's playing tomorrow, Jess America. Danny, you just survived the
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 2: Knicks parade.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 5: I did.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 13: I also, I only recently saw a video that might
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 13: be the It might be the funniest thing I've seen
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 13: since I moved to New York.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 13: It involved two ladies on a light pole, one of
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 13: whom grabbed the other, threw her down, and then what
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 13: can only be described as twerked on her head.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 2: Ian uh uhked on her head.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 13: Yes, after she had thrown her to the started dancing shaking.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 13: She had a verified but dounk she was shaking it.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 13: And then the other lady decided that she should she
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 13: should try to pull her off by her shorts, which
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 13: were then removed.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 6: It was it's on my it's on my Twitter feeds,
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 6: click on.
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 4: I do.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 13: There's about five things on the video that are that
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 13: that are truly roll on the floor hilarious.
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 6: But the funniest might be is that the the lady
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 6: who's doing the tworking actually has h New York Nicks
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 6: orange underpants on.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: Okay, now I'm watching it. This is unbelievab plans. This
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 2: is fantasy.
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 13: I know what I thought, except if you watch, If
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 13: you watch, I don't think there's any way someone would
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 13: agree to be thrown off the light pole like the
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 13: woman was, Like if if there had not been, I mean,
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 13: because she is a full four to five feet off
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 13: the ground. Yeah, and she just gets ragdalled onto the concrete.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 13: So if not for that, I would agree it seems staged.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 4: The underwear we're meant to be shown. Yeah, I think
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 4: the underwear we're meant to be shown that day. That's
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 4: the only thing I think that was planned.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, like yeah, there's the all there is there. We
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: are full on orange, full on orange. God, wow, that
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 2: is that is something.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 6: New York City is the wildest, man, It is the wildest.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 2: So the NIXT winning the NBA Championship like hot, Like, like,
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: is there any what would be the comp in Seattle?
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: I don't think there is one?
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 5: Is there?
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 6: It would be when the Sonics come back.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 15: Defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder, either by a score of
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 15: ninety nine to three or one oh nine to one
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 15: oh eight on a last second three pointer, like it
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 15: would be that that that would be the scale of
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 15: it in the playoffs, winning a playoff.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 6: Series in a decisive game by either.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 13: Ninety nine to three or one o eight one oh
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 13: seven with a Damian Lillard like three pointer or two
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 13: to eviscerate them. That's what I think would unleash that.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 6: Well, would a Mariner's World Series? After all we've been through.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 13: Would a Mariner's World Series unleash that kind of am
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 13: I would a Mariner's World.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 6: Series do it?
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: That's what I was wondering because I like for us
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: and I don't want to in any way, shape or
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: form disparaite. What what the last? I mean, it's we
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: in Seattle. Never ever in Seattle should we take anything
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: for granted or act spoiled. But listen, I the first
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: super Bowl and the first Super Bowl Parade, I think
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 2: felt a little different than the second Super Bowl and
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 2: the second Super Bowl Parade. I just I think they
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: felt different, right, I not? I mean we were Listen,
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: people are still going crazy with bananas.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 5: Was fun.
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 2: I think it's funny because once the Seahawks got to
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: the suit, very much like the San Francisco won in
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: twenty thirteen, when you got to the Super Bowl and
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: you beat the NFC champions. It kind of felt like, boy,
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: we've already done it, right, And even though the Broncos
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 2: were sitting there with all the hype and all that stuff,
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, every player told me, they told you, me
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: and everybody else. We knew we had that game one
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 2: and they did early this year. We knew, right like
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 2: when they beat the Rams and got to the Super Bowl,
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 2: You're like, who we put the Patriots? Really? Okay, well,
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 2: we thank you, We've already won. And then you know,
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 2: the game itself, there wasn't a lot of drama obviously
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: the first one, but the first one felt different. I
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 2: think maybe when the Sonics come back, and I'm convinced
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: it's in two years, we'll see basketball here in twenty
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 2: twenty eight, when the Sonics come back, and then whenever
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: they are able, if they're able to win an NBA title,
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: maybe that would be it. I think a Sonics NBA
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: title would be it. Mariner's World Series. Probably people still
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 2: like to hate the team, though there's a weird maybe
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 2: that's maybe that is Nix like Danny, right, we love them,
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 2: but we hate them, right, Maybe there is that.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 6: There is some of that.
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 13: The one thing you would get with a Mariner's World
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 13: Series that maybe we can't fully understand or appreciate.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 6: Is you would have Grandma's crying like.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 12: You would have.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 13: You would have a whole crew of older ladies who
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 13: an underestimated and should should go, should be appreciated and lauded,
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 13: the number of grannys that love the Mariners and would
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 13: feel that the emotional release that would come from those
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 13: ladies if and when the Mariners win a World Series
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 13: might catch us by surprise like that that might, but
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 13: I it's it's such a it's such a hard thing
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 13: to sort of forecast how a championship would feel or
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 13: how it actually when it comes to pass. Because that
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 13: first Super Bowl, I think what I remember as the
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 13: most emotional moment other than the reaction to Richard Sherman's tip,
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 13: was there was a video of the team going to
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 13: the airport to travel to New York for the Super Bowl,
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 13: and I think right at the very end there was
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 13: was it like a pile of skittles that they drove through,
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 13: but the whole way there, and there were some videos
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 13: that players took from inside.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 6: The yea that whole route being lined with people like.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 13: It's that sort of like unexpectedly intense that doesn't always
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 13: happen when a team has a Super Bowl run.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 6: That doesn't always happen when a team wins a championship.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 6: That's certainly what it feels.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 13: Like right now in New York with the Knicks, that
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 13: that there is something above and beyond the normal.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 6: Ecstasy with a championship.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 13: I wonder, I wonder how we'll feel when the Mariners,
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 13: when the Mariners finally win a World Series.
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: Let's hope we find that out at some point, I
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: mean we will. It's only been fifty years. It's only
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 2: been fifty We've only been waiting for fifty years. I mean,
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 2: for those of us are old enough to be fifty plus,
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: which it's been fifty years we've been waiting. So yeah,
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 2: there is that was a little bit like twenty thirteen
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 2: was very organic, and it sounds like the Knixt thing
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: was kind of similar to this. I mean everyone everyone
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: had basically said Oklahoma City is gonna win it, right,
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 2: like that's who's going to win the NBA title. And
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 2: the Knicks weren't the number one seed in the East either,
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: Like it wasn't like the expectations were all they'll win
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: the title of No it was that wasn't really thought of, right,
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: and I think that might have been part of it
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 2: along the way, so that that does feel similar. Yeah,
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: like here, you know, w't be interesting. I'm curious, Danny,
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 2: I wonder what the crowds are going to be like
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: at training camp this year for the Seahawks, because the
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: last few years it has we've seen, you know, spaces
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: of empty grass on the burn and so forth. Man,
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 2: you remember back in you know, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, whatever,
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 2: what there wasn't a place. I mean you could see
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 2: a blade of grass up there, and you know, right.
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 13: One of my favorite things to watch in the morning
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 13: was when the first bus would arrive there and and
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 13: at training camp, and we had a term for it.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 6: It was the Running of the twelves. And you would watch.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 13: The stampede that would take place from that first people
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 13: trying to get themselves like dead center for that practice
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 13: field viewing the Running of the twelve.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 6: I hope we see a return of the Running of
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 6: the twelve this year.
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 2: We we do see it. I'll tell you this, The
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 2: Running the twelve still exists. It does it does still
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: exist the running of the Twelves. Maybe not with the
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 2: same fury and passion. Maybe it's not an entire bus,
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 2: maybe it's half of the first bus, but there's still
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 2: a running of the twelves. The best part is when
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 2: the running of the Twelves comes in and they realize
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 2: that the practice is being held at the far south endfield.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 2: You can't see anything.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 13: I feel bad about how much that entertained me, because
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 13: on the one hand, I feel a great deal of sympathy.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 6: That stinks to go through all of that and have
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 6: the practice on the far field.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 13: And it's not like the Seahawks want to do that,
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 13: like they need to give the grass time to recover
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 13: and all of that.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 5: But it is kind of funny, yes it is. It
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 5: kind of is.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: It kind of is well. And I think they're only
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 2: having nine open practices this year, so they've got way
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 2: back on that regard too.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 6: So everybody can.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 13: Watch them on Hard Knocks, right, you get the inside
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 13: snoop from the HBO crew.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: That well, I mean, that's the thing, the whole Hard
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 2: Knocks deals coming. You know who doesn't like that as all?
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 2: All all the curmudgeon media guys, So I want to
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: paint in the It's going to be a nightmare. You
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 2: would have embraced that, wouldn't you.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 6: Yes, I think you have to in those sort of environments.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 13: It is my hope that they that John Schneider gets
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 13: extended TV time, Oh God, so he can do his
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 13: imitation from.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 6: Various movies like That's.
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 13: That's if there was one wish that I had from
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 13: from what Hard Knocks would provide to the world, it
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 13: would be that I hope the football viewing public comes
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 13: to understand the savant like gift that John Schneider has
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 13: for the recitation of.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 6: Will Ferrell movies like that.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 13: That I would be There are not many people that
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 13: have a command of Talladega, Knights, Elf and other films
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 13: such as Step Brothers that John Schneider possesses.
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 3: I still quote each other on Step Brothers actually.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 2: That it could be a star, Like he could be
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 2: a star if they mike him up and let him
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 2: be and they loosen the reins on you know, on
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 2: him and media. He could be a star during Hard Knocks.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 2: He could be really good. He could be really really
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 2: good during Hard Knocks. I mean, I do you think
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: over under on how many episodes, and we're in until
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 2: we hear Softy somewhere in the background. Is it the
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 2: first one?
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it'll be the first one.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 13: They're missing an opportunity if they don't get him barking
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 13: like a seal and that high pitched voice at someplace
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 13: of the background they are they are certainly missing out
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 13: because he would be a huge element, a huge a huge.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 6: Value add to the production.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 2: What do you do with pal? What's going on?
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 5: Pal? I?
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 4: I I.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 2: The other thing is I'll be interested to see. I
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 2: don't know where you'd have to go. Is it read
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 2: it or someplace? I want to hear see comments about
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: it because gonna be there. Okay, someone's have to show
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 2: me how to do that, cause I want to. I
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: want to see like what people are saying, like they'll
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 2: Softy be one, Like I'm talking non seahawks. Stuff like
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 2: people be asking who's the writer in ninety five degree
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: heat that's wearing the big hoodie. That'll be Bob condona
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: like right, like like that of stuff like the characters
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 2: that are kind of off in the back.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 13: We got to see stuff like that, Danny, I would
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 13: think so if anybody would like to laugh uproariously. If
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 13: you go on YouTube, you can search ESPN did a
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 13: piece when A Rod returned to Seattle for the first
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 13: time since he signed the fishing pole with the monopoly money.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 6: It's a it's a great overall piece.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 13: But they go to Softy, a very young looking Softy
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 13: at that point, and you just hear Softy at full
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 13: froth over what does it mean a Rod returning? And
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 13: it's just it's it's like watching the portrait of a
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 13: young genius at work, like a prodigy before.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 6: He fully came into his flat.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 13: You you see the seeds of greatness that are there
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 13: as he as he works the phone lines.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 6: In talking about A Rod's return.
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 2: Was there there had to be like bitterness and anger involved, right, Well, sure.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 11: It's just there was.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 6: It was unmitigated on his point, like we all hate him, right,
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 6: And it's great. It's everything that sports radio is supposed
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 6: to do.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's good. It'll no, it will be fun once
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 2: it does arrive here. I can't wait. I think it'll
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 2: be sensational on a lot of levels. But you know,
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 2: I know there's probably people that don't want it to happen.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: But I think showcasing that team that group, it'll be
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 2: a lot more subdued. I mean, obviously the twenty thirteen
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 2: team would have been something, but that thing would have
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: been a pain because there would have been guys saying stuff,
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: I gotta get paid. But like everyone had been bitching
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 2: and complaining right about stuff like guys holding out Earl
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 2: stand around, will folding his arms. But this one is
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 2: a likable group of guys, and there's probably enough characters
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 2: along the way. I mean, people were like, damn, Mike
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 2: McDonald's he ever miss arm day?
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 4: No?
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 2: The answer is no, never miss his arm day, you know,
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 2: like more Jack and McVeigh. So now it'll be fun.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 2: Danie O'Neill joining us. Quick thought from you before we go.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 2: The college football landscape changed again this week, and it
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 2: took a step maybe forward. I don't know. Brendan Soresby
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 2: finally capped out and said we're done. Just do you
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 2: think that we got anywhere in college athletics with the
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 2: Soresby thing? Or was it just an exercise in futility
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 2: and nothing really is gonna change or come out of it.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 4: No.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 13: I think that there are some positives to take from that,
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 13: which is that peer pressure and shame still work. Yeah,
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 13: that there is you can stand up and say this
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 13: isn't right and we're not going to do it. And
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 13: I think sort of reading between the lines, that the
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 13: reason Soresby about outer they mutually agreed to part ways
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 13: he in Texas Tech was because they saw that there
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 13: was going to be a legal fight in front of them,
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 13: that there were going to be teams that were going
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 13: to potentially refuse to play Texas Tech or schedule Texas Tech,
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 13: or maybe the conference was gonna and instead of have
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 13: that legal fight, they're like, Okay, we're just not going
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 13: to try to do it.
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 6: And I think it's important. I don't have high hopes
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 6: for the bill that Maria Cantwell and Ted Cruz have introduced.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 6: I think it's good that they're inner it.
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 13: I don't know if there's a political win here for
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 13: them or but I think legislators should be trying to
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 13: tackle hard problems and like the one. The one bright
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 13: side bright side of the Soresby deal is I think
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 13: it showed that you still can make rules, You still
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 13: can decide this isn't right and we're not going to
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 13: allow this to happen. Because there does need to.
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 6: Be some structure put in place in college football.
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 2: Well, I totally agree. I said all along. I think
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 2: we even discussed it last week. I mean, to me,
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 2: this is a really simple process. All you have to
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 2: do is the conference has to step in. I mean,
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 2: if there is a president, they could just look to
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 2: ninety three Don James Husky football and the PAC ten
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: is the one that sanctioned Washington. It wasn't the NCAA,
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 2: And there weren't over reppercressions except for the fact that
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 2: DJ quit. But outside of that, like the conference just
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: said no, you guys, did X, Y or Z. Fair
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 2: or unfair Husky fans. I'm not saying it was fair,
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: but I'm just that was what happened to me all along.
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 2: The pressure should have on the Big twelve Danny.
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 13: When you just say, hey, nobody's telling us we can't
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 13: do it, so we're gonna do it. HM is like
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 13: that sort of anarchy that rules there should be adults
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 13: in the room. And if if the n cua A
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 13: is incapable of being the adults because they've let their
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 13: organization whither away, other groups need to step up. And
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 13: and I think it's I think it's good that that
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 13: happened in the case of sort of speak, I hope
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 13: it starts to happen more across across college football.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 2: My friend great stuff is always tell people the day
• 1:29:30

• 1:30:18
  Speaker 4: Prepared to be athletically used underwear. I will just say
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 4: that they had.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 2: Some prepared us prepared.

  Speaker 12: They were like.
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 3: Athletic wear, not just like protect the skin situation. They
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 3: were not delegates.
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 13: Perhaps it was like those the stretch bands that athletes use,
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 13: the resistance bands like it was made of that material, yeah,
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 13: modified to be used as underpants.
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 3: I would say it was definitely closer to that than silk.
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, there was. I don't think Victoria or
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 2: her secret knew anything about those.
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 3: So we saw all the secrets in that video we did.
• 1:30:57

• 1:31:39
  Speaker 16: Hello, I am just a World soccer fan. When the
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 16: World Cup Soccer comes on, I'm watching mostly every single game.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 16: I'm out of diehard. I'm not watching every single game,
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 16: but I'm watching the fun games. I'm watching the powerhouses.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 16: I'm watching England, Portugal, Spain, I'm watching France, USA. I'm
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 16: watching all the big time games and the finals.
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 2: There you go, all right beautiful. Yeah, I mean it's tomorrow.
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 2: It's just a different, different level of sports here.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 4: But I think it changes the fact for us specifically
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 4: because it's here here.
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean it's just like, I think, just
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 2: a taste of what it might look like three o'clock
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 2: when Canada and it has its match in Vacouver today.
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm watching with a video up there. It's insane,
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 2: like absolutely insane.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 4: So you know, it's Country Pride, it's World Pride, City Pride,
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 4: you know, Pride month. It happens to be falling in
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 4: and uh not that that has anything to do with it.
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 4: I just used the word pride a lot and wanting
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 4: to acknowledge that it's Pride month. But I'm just it's
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 4: super fun. It's just a really good time.
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 3: And I think that. I mean, the one thing that
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 3: we were talking about the.
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl parade earlier and how like people there was
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 4: not a single arrest and there were hundreds of thousands
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 4: of not this past one, but the first one, oh okay,
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 4: the twenty fourteen.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 3: One, that's when the periode happened, and it was just
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 3: so peaceful arrest.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 2: We had the last time was softy.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, he really like live on the air.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that was the closest. I mean, yeah,
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 2: and he should have been a lot to I wonder
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 2: if he just would have gone and done it like
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, across the boundary, across the barricade, what would
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 2: have happened.
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 3: I think he could have outrun them.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 2: I just wouldn't.
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 4: He would not have been as big, like their biggest problem.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 4: He was trying to interview guys. He was throwing the
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 4: microphones on the duck boats and whatever.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 2: A lot of people talking about different places to go tomorrow.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 2: There's a million of them out there. And yes, and
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 2: somebody actually texted in two o six bar talking about
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 2: some of the bars closed that have closed down. Yeah,
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 2: bars and closed. Others have opened along the way. I
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 2: guess that FX for Corey's, the old fx mc Corey's
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 2: building has a new brewery in it Lowland or something.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 3: That's where I want. We talked about it earlier.
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 2: That's where I tried to free all the cry that's like,
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 2: but that's been closed forever. But now I guess there's
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 2: a new brewery in there. So people are talking about that.
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 3: Going there nice, Yeah, it's re envisioned.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I just I always I mean down in the
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 2: Pineer Square area. The old J and M's closed. That's
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 2: that's unfortunately. I used to just putch an an iconic place.
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, you wouldn't watch sports necessarily there, but it
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 2: was iconic. But yeah, go find a place support local.
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 2: Go out there tomorrow if you're not going down to

• 1:34:50
  Speaker 2: of money. I think somebody bought it out, is what
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 2: I heard Greg say. Oh no, I think some rich
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: dude bought it out. I'm pretty sure that's what Greg
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 2: Bell was telling me.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 3: That was Duck's boat was here.
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it was him. I have known
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 2: those US boat was getting was. We have that ability
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 2: to repair boats in our area. That's like the marine
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 2: the marine technicians or what have you.
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It had like a helicopter on that
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 3: but that's why I was here. That was what it
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 3: looked like a bunch of repairs.
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sure there's maintenance for a zillion dollars billion
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 2: dollar boat.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 3: So you drive it all the way.
• 1:35:25

• 1:35:30
  Speaker 2: have that ability, we do have really good one we don't.

• 1:39:48
  Speaker 12: On the seat, on the seat.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 17: If you got ready urinals and we just went with stalls,
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 17: you could do like they do with the occidental haul
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 17: in with the restroom set up where you have the
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 17: big kind of communal sink thing. I think Tom Tom's
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 17: watch bar has the same deal their place, right, I
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 17: don't know, but we just have a big we just
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 17: have a big hallway. Yeah, and you know it's for everybody.
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 2: That's actually the Georgetown tap room. They've got the communal sink,
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 2: big one, big, huge one. Yes, it actually creeps me
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 2: up because it kind of reminds me of the old
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 2: one in the Kingdome or the Tacoma Dome. The sink does,
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 2: you know, like you step on it and all that.
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 2: But it's a little nicer than that. But yeah, yeah,
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 2: I'm with you.
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 12: I about Pete trots for everybody, like the old Kingdome.
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 2: Well listen, and we had it at the Tacoma Dome
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 2: up until that renovation a few years ago. Everyone was
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 2: complaining about the fact that you can't have high school
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 2: football in the Tacmodome anymore. I was more personally offended
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 2: by the fact they took the troughs out because it
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 2: was our last remaining trough in a dome in our
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 2: area once they leveled the Kingdome, and that was it,
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 2: and that was unacceptable in my life.
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 17: You know what, I'll take you behind the scenes here
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 17: a little BITI in because you've done this before. We
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 17: are dealing with a power issue here at the five
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 17: twenty bar and grill. So I'm literally talking to a
• 1:40:52

  Speaker 17: wall over there. Okay, just got a thirty footer.
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 2: Get a thirty footer.
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 17: The power, the power that they've got set up for us. See,
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 17: we are outside. The reason why I asked you the
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 17: GPS if you're outside. We are outside on the patio
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 17: under an umbrella, drinking Margarite, is having a great time,
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 17: and we are normally inside. Inside there's not a power problem,
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 17: but outside there is a power issue.
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 12: So we get here. Thank god, the comrades unit's all
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 12: charged up. We're all good to go there.
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 17: And then we had to send Jackson, not our Jackson,

  Speaker 2: We can all laugh about it now.
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure.

• 1:43:37
  Speaker 2: he comes up to me and he says, what the

• 1:43:41
  Speaker 2: had to be for something, and he's like, yeah, we
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 2: were all like putting bets on it and wagering and
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 2: throw down and all this. You guys literally had everybody
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 2: distracted during practice, which is funny just because you know what,

  Speaker 2: Pete wouldn't Pete wouldn't notice that, and he didn't, right,

  Speaker 17: think there was any fans there that day.
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 2: No, that would have been an even bigger story.
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 12: And that was kind of before Twitter and Facebook took
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 12: off a little bit.
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 2: So kind of yeah, oh, I think that was part
• 1:44:17
