- 1:10Speaker 5: then you'll see that we are joined in studio by

- 1:15Speaker 6: You guys are too good to me.
- 1:16Speaker 2: How are you? I'm good.
- 1:18Speaker 6: I've gotten so many compliments on this hat today, including
- 1:21Speaker 6: one William Schmid, my.
- 1:22Speaker 2: Packer hat today.
- 1:23Speaker 5: You'll see it in a second here.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Oh, yeah. I'm waiting.
- 1:26Speaker 2: There you go. Drum roll. Come on, Armin. He's coming in.
- 1:29Speaker 2: Now he's got to hit a button on the old.
- 1:31Speaker 5: Tablet, your cameras.
- 1:33Speaker 2: The technology at iHeartMedia.
- 1:35Speaker 5: It is a sharp hat. How long have you had it?
- 1:37Speaker 2: You know what? We were just talking about it.
- 1:38Speaker 6: I have had it since I started with the Packers report.
- 1:41Speaker 2: So that was like four years ago, I think. All right.
- 1:44Speaker 6: Which is crazy to think that that was like, it
- 1:46Speaker 6: was either four or three years ago.
- 1:47Speaker 5: You can tell. Billy, what's the shelf life for a
- 1:50Speaker 5: hat for you?
- 1:51Speaker 2: How long do they last?
- 1:53Speaker 7: In regular rotation. I was going to say, in regular rotation,
- 1:57Speaker 7: it's about a year and a half.
- 1:58Speaker 5: I was going to say, no way you'd be wearing
- 2:00Speaker 5: one that, you know, in regular rotation for four years,
- 2:02Speaker 5: they'd be falling apart.
- 2:03Speaker 2: They'd be falling. Sweat stained.
- 2:05Speaker 5: Let me ask you this.
- 2:07Speaker 2: Do you put your hats in the washer?
- 2:09Speaker 5: Oh, that's a good question.
- 2:10Speaker 2: A couple of them.
- 2:11Speaker 7: There's a couple of them, but I don't usually put
- 2:13Speaker 7: it in the dryer. No, never in the dryer.
- 2:17Speaker 5: The new gizmo. There's a new cap steaming gizmo for
- 2:21Speaker 5: guys who wear a lot of hats. You put the
- 2:23Speaker 5: hat in, close the thing up, and it steams it.
- 2:25Speaker 5: And then it cleans it.
- 2:26Speaker 7: Like the hair dryer that you would see at the salon.
- 2:30Speaker 7: It looks like the bubble.
- 2:31Speaker 2: See, I was thinking like a bottle steamer. We use
- 2:33Speaker 2: like a bottle steamer. Like you do that to like
- 2:35Speaker 2: sanitize your baby bottles. Yeah, I used that bottle thing before. Yeah,
- 2:38Speaker 2: but like this is for hats. Like that's actually brilliant.
- 2:40Speaker 2: I should get that for the dude for Christmas.
- 2:42Speaker 8: I don't think you really clean. There's no good way
- 2:44Speaker 8: to me to still clean a head. I've gotten the
- 2:45Speaker 8: cap buddy, the bill buddy, where you put in the dishwasher.
- 2:49Speaker 8: They shrink them, though.
- 2:49Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 2:50Speaker 7: Lars put a couple of my heads in the washer.
- 2:51Speaker 7: There have been some, though, because I got an awkward
- 2:53Speaker 7: shaped head. I got a large head, but I have
- 2:56Speaker 7: an awkward shaped one from getting hit on the back
- 2:58Speaker 7: of my head a number of different times. So sometimes
- 3:01Speaker 7: I will wash them strategically. to try to loosen it
- 3:04Speaker 7: up a little bit. That'll be one to maybe stretch,
- 3:06Speaker 7: or I put one into the dryer to actually shrink
- 3:09Speaker 7: it a tick just to be able to form it.
- 3:11Speaker 5: Take it down to the clubhouse and have one of
- 3:12Speaker 5: the clubbies stretch it for you. They have a hat stretcher.
- 3:14Speaker 5: I was going to say, they got everything. Well, if
- 3:16Speaker 5: we had access to all those guys, that'd be great.
- 3:18Speaker 6: Well, and I guess it's different for you guys because
- 3:20Speaker 6: I wear a lot of, like, dad hats, right? So
- 3:22Speaker 6: these are a little bit easier to put in the
- 3:23Speaker 6: wash versus if you put, like, one like you have on, Billy,
- 3:26Speaker 6: it'll probably lose that form.
- 3:28Speaker 5: Yep, it loses, like, a little bit.
- 3:29Speaker 2: That makes sense, yeah.
- 3:30Speaker 5: Kind of deal like that.
- 3:31Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
- 3:32Speaker 7: So have you gone through what merch or what merch
- 3:36Speaker 7: the house is going to get, the hats that the
- 3:37Speaker 7: house is going to get for the Brewers World Series,
- 3:40Speaker 7: or is that going to be maybe put felt the
- 3:42Speaker 7: clearance sales end up rolling through here in the next
- 3:44Speaker 7: week or so.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 3:45Speaker 6: So we actually just redid our basement.
- 3:48Speaker 2: Shout out Brewer Contracting. I love them so much.
- 3:50Speaker 5: What up, Ken?
- 3:51Speaker 2: Yes, yes, it's a partnership right there.
- 3:53Speaker 5: You guys do a great job.
- 3:53Speaker 2: He is handsome, you're right. We love Ken. We love Brian.
- 3:56Speaker 2: They're awesome. So anyway, we're getting our basement done. It
- 3:59Speaker 2: looks incredible.
- 4:00Speaker 6: And the dude was like, we should put jerseys on
- 4:03Speaker 6: the wall, like signed jerseys, because one side is like
- 4:06Speaker 6: playroom for the little guy, and then one side is
- 4:08Speaker 6: like sports cave for us. So we're doing Bills and
- 4:11Speaker 6: Packers stuff, obviously. Got to keep it neutral. So we
- 4:13Speaker 6: were talking. This is actually a good question for you guys.
- 4:16Speaker 6: We're going to put four jerseys on the wall.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Oh, I like this. I love this.
- 4:20Speaker 5: This is like the type of discussions.
- 4:22Speaker 2: I love right here, yeah. Like your Mount Rushmore of jerseys, right?
- 4:24Speaker 5: Mount Rushmores, yeah.
- 4:25Speaker 6: So the dude had asked me, okay, who do you
- 4:28Speaker 6: want from the Bills? Like you can get two and
- 4:30Speaker 6: I'll get two. So, of course, right away he says
- 4:32Speaker 6: Rodgers and Love.
- 4:34Speaker 2: Good, good, good.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Right?
- 4:35Speaker 2: Yeah, because I refuse to have Brett Favre on my wall.
- 4:37Speaker 8: But do you want one on your wall that's like
- 4:40Speaker 8: a jersey of a player you like?
- 4:42Speaker 5: Or do you want one that you got autographed? See,
- 4:44Speaker 5: that's tough, too.
- 4:45Speaker 2: That's what we're going to do.
- 4:46Speaker 6: So he has a signed Jordan Love jersey that was
- 4:48Speaker 6: a present from my parents for Christmas a couple of
- 4:50Speaker 6: years ago.
- 4:51Speaker 2: So we got that one. We're good to go.
- 4:53Speaker 6: And I said, of course, I want a Joshua Patrick
- 4:55Speaker 6: Allen jersey on the wall, obviously. So the fourth one,
- 4:58Speaker 6: he asked me, who do you want from the Bills?
- 5:00Speaker 6: And I just didn't have a good answer except for like.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Doug Flutie because I loved him. He's a legend in Buffalo.
- 5:07Speaker 6: So then we started pivoting and I said, you know what? Actually,
- 5:10Speaker 6: let's do a Brewer since they just won. So now
- 5:13Speaker 6: we're talking about which Brewer to get. And I said Contreras.
- 5:16Speaker 6: But now he's been signed to that like extension. They
- 5:19Speaker 6: signed him for that.
- 5:20Speaker 2: It's just a one-year contract. It's a one-year option. I'm
- 5:25Speaker 2: used to the way that we do things here, apparently.
- 5:27Speaker 2: This is a World Series. It lives forever. I was thinking,
- 5:30Speaker 2: that's what I said.
- 5:31Speaker 6: I said, even if he isn't here in a year.
- 5:34Speaker 7: You could get Jojo Romero from this year and it
- 5:37Speaker 7: would have some shelf life.
- 5:39Speaker 6: He said, you can't have Garrett Mitchell. I'm like, okay,
- 5:42Speaker 6: that's bullying.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Why not?
- 5:44Speaker 5: Flutie's a handsome devil, too.
- 5:46Speaker 2: So adorable still, you're right.
- 5:48Speaker 5: He's doing those new Genix commercials. Doug Flutie knows what's up.
- 5:51Speaker 2: He sure does.
- 5:53Speaker 6: So that's why I'm thinking I'm going to do my
- 5:56Speaker 6: second jersey as Contreras because I love him. I'm a
- 5:58Speaker 6: big fan of catchers. I loved Jorge Posada so much.
- 6:04Speaker 5: He was a great catcher. I can't believe you didn't
- 6:07Speaker 5: go to Freddie Jackson.
- 6:09Speaker 8: Oh, that would have been cute.
- 6:13Speaker 5: Here's a life hack for you guys. Young children and stuff.
- 6:15Speaker 5: I learned this from a buddy of mine. know buy
- 6:17Speaker 5: the jerseys get the frame jerseys and stuff but buy
- 6:19Speaker 5: the youth size jerseys yeah that's what i smaller frames
- 6:22Speaker 5: easier to frame easier frame and then if let's say
- 6:26Speaker 5: the player has a legal issue correct you take it
- 6:28Speaker 5: off the wall and toss it and it's you're not
- 6:30Speaker 5: out about it this massive framed full-size jersey piece it's
- 6:35Speaker 5: less of an investment and especially for a kid's room
- 6:37Speaker 5: oh for sure small jerseys look so money because you
- 6:40Speaker 5: can have a bunch of.
- 6:41Speaker 7: Them them yeah all of them stacked up through the
- 6:43Speaker 7: little guy's room and we could fit probably five or
- 6:46Speaker 7: six of them yeah you know they are the youth
- 6:48Speaker 7: small where also he just wants to see the number
- 6:51Speaker 7: yeah and it makes it a lot easier and i
- 6:53Speaker 7: mean i think we ended up getting the frames and
- 6:54Speaker 7: the jerseys for all of the price of what one
- 6:57Speaker 7: adult exactly i.
- 6:59Speaker 2: Thought you meant drew for wearing.
- 7:00Speaker 6: Because like that's what i'll do is get like an
- 7:02Speaker 6: extra large like boys jersey for myself because it's the
- 7:05Speaker 6: same as.
- 7:05Speaker 5: Like talking about framing and displaying that's a good for
- 7:07Speaker 5: especially for a kid's room.
- 7:09Speaker 2: But it's not.
- 7:10Speaker 6: So the kids room is golf themed. His part of
- 7:12Speaker 6: the basement is golf themed. And then ours is going
- 7:15Speaker 6: to be more of like the football.
- 7:17Speaker 8: That's the tough thing about game issued or game worn jerseys, too.
- 7:20Speaker 8: is because these guys are so much bigger, you don't
- 7:22Speaker 8: realize how big the jerseys are. Like, Billy, you have
- 7:24Speaker 8: the Marcus Hanna one, although you kind of fit in that.
- 7:27Speaker 8: Not trying to make any, you know. No, I'm just saying.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Kind of.
- 7:31Speaker 5: You like that?
- 7:32Speaker 8: I got, like, an old Todd Coffee game used if
- 7:34Speaker 8: you want me to donate that. But nobody, like, who's
- 7:37Speaker 8: thinking I want a Todd Coffee jersey on the wall?
- 7:39Speaker 5: Why on earth did you get a Todd Coffee?
- 7:41Speaker 2: I was going to say.
- 7:41Speaker 5: I got some weird game-used jerseys. I got some weird ones.
- 7:43Speaker 5: A Todd Coffee jersey could fit three Armin Sarians inside.
- 7:46Speaker 5: It's a 56.
- 7:47Speaker 2: It's a triple X. It's a triple X.
- 7:49Speaker 6: How many Almanzarians will the jersey fit?
- 7:52Speaker 5: I got a lot of random stuff. That's also a gem.
- 7:56Speaker 5: Why on earth would you be trying to get rid
- 7:57Speaker 5: of a Todd coffee?
- 7:59Speaker 7: I'd be sprinting to the thrift store to take that.
- 8:02Speaker 2: I'll give it to you, Billy.
- 8:03Speaker 8: You actually will fit in that jersey.
- 8:06Speaker 2: I can't wear it. Do you hear this?
- 8:08Speaker 5: No, because I'm not driving me. You wear the multiple X's.
- 8:11Speaker 2: It's not like Is that bad to say?
- 8:19Speaker 5: No, it's not.
- 8:19Speaker 7: Because, I mean, when Shanna talked about wearing the adult
- 8:22Speaker 7: or the youth small or the youth extra large.
- 8:24Speaker 2: No, I said youth extra large.
- 8:25Speaker 7: Youth extra large, which is basically an adult small. I
- 8:27Speaker 7: don't think I've fit into that since, like, third grade.
- 8:31Speaker 7: So there's no offense taken here. Don't worry about it.
- 8:33Speaker 2: I used to go after the game.
- 8:35Speaker 8: Game used jerseys were, like, an exciting thing for me
- 8:37Speaker 8: when I was working at the stadium and they first
- 8:39Speaker 8: started kind of selling them. Because I recognize some were
- 8:42Speaker 8: being mispriced because some of the guys.
- 8:44Speaker 5: Were like 50 bucks.
- 8:46Speaker 2: And I'm like, that's definitely worth it. Yeah.
- 8:48Speaker 5: You got to snag that Jody Garrett while you can.
- 8:50Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 8:50Speaker 8: When else are you going to need a George Kataris jersey?
- 8:54Speaker 8: I have my Dave Nelson one when he was a
- 8:55Speaker 8: first base goes rest in peace. It's not a guy
- 8:57Speaker 8: I thought about this week. Dave, Dave, Dave Nelson. I'm
- 9:00Speaker 8: never letting that one go. But, you know, you think
- 9:03Speaker 8: about that stuff. And then when you go to the
- 9:04Speaker 8: clubhouse sale, that's when I kind of look for the
- 9:07Speaker 8: shorter guys that are like coaches and like maybe the
- 9:10Speaker 8: Daniel DeMona starts of the world that would actually fit me.
- 9:12Speaker 2: But sure.
- 9:14Speaker 5: I think that's when I acquired this Todd coffee Jersey.
- 9:16Speaker 8: I kind of found it when I was moving, but yeah, Billy,
- 9:20Speaker 8: you can definitely, he might have some sweat stains too.
- 9:23Speaker 8: Cause it's game use and you know, I'll use sort
- 9:24Speaker 8: of sprint out of the bullpen.
- 9:25Speaker 2: That's beautiful. Remember that?
- 9:26Speaker 5: That's what you want. That's the exact one that I'm
- 9:28Speaker 5: looking for.
- 9:29Speaker 8: Yeah. So I would say you got to have also,
- 9:31Speaker 8: you need a, one of the nine early nineties bills
- 9:33Speaker 8: represented there.
- 9:34Speaker 2: I mean, that was the run. We almost did that.
- 9:36Speaker 6: Cause I have a Bruce Smith Jersey, but I still like,
- 9:38Speaker 6: but I still like wearing that one. It was funny
- 9:40Speaker 6: because I was like, I think the only signed Bills
- 9:42Speaker 6: jersey I still have is a signed Paul Poslasny jersey.
- 9:46Speaker 2: That's a good one. Hilarious.
- 9:49Speaker 6: I was like, wow, I still have that. I have
- 9:50Speaker 6: a Lee Evans jersey signed as well, which I always forget.
- 9:53Speaker 6: He's a former Badger.
- 9:54Speaker 7: I was going to say the Lee Evans one actually
- 9:56Speaker 7: is kind of a perfect one to put up if
- 9:59Speaker 7: you have room for it.
- 10:00Speaker 3: It.
- 10:01Speaker 6: If you know, you know, the most perfect jersey would
- 10:03Speaker 6: be a Micah Hyde jersey because Micah Hyde played for
- 10:07Speaker 6: the Packers and the Bills. Of course, that's the only
- 10:10Speaker 6: reason why.
- 10:12Speaker 5: There's another guy I think that represents.
- 10:15Speaker 2: Were you a big Jim Kelly guy? No, I'm not.
- 10:18Speaker 2: That's why I can't.
- 10:19Speaker 6: The dude had said, let's do a Jim Kelly jersey.
- 10:22Speaker 2: That makes me a poser. I do.
- 10:23Speaker 6: This is actually a poser, though. I have a picture
- 10:25Speaker 6: of Jim Kelly that we're going to put in there.
- 10:26Speaker 2: Well, you got to have a picture with the guy.
- 10:28Speaker 5: I mean, come on.
- 10:29Speaker 2: It's cool.
- 10:29Speaker 6: And then I have a picture of my G-Mod with
- 10:31Speaker 6: Marv Levy that's going to go on.
- 10:32Speaker 2: The Hall of Fame wall. That's the one. That's the
- 10:34Speaker 2: one to blow off. If you can get a.
- 10:36Speaker 5: Marv Levy type of poem up there.
- 10:38Speaker 6: Where would you rather be than right here, right now?
- 10:41Speaker 2: You love poetry.
- 10:42Speaker 4: Yes.
- 10:42Speaker 8: But we talked about him this week. I think the guy,
- 10:45Speaker 8: you might have to invest in it. You might have
- 10:46Speaker 8: to buy one.
- 10:47Speaker 2: A Jim Kelly jersey?
- 10:48Speaker 8: No, no, no.
- 10:48Speaker 5: We talked about him this week in the hallway.
- 10:50Speaker 2: Do you remember?
- 10:51Speaker 8: Number 34, Thurman Thomas.
- 10:53Speaker 2: You got to get Thurm.
- 10:54Speaker 8: I think that would be a great one to get
- 10:57Speaker 8: up there.
- 10:58Speaker 2: Or like an Andre Reid. Andre Reid's a good one
- 11:00Speaker 2: as well. You don't have a 32? Buffalo. No, I'm
- 11:05Speaker 2: not trying to squeeze juice.
- 11:07Speaker 7: I just didn't know.
- 11:10Speaker 2: I don't know if you have one.
- 11:12Speaker 5: Maybe from the Hertz commercial.
- 11:14Speaker 2: I believe he is not.
- 11:15Speaker 7: He was flying in that Hertz commercial.
- 11:17Speaker 2: Is that game used? There's that.
- 11:19Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
- 11:19Speaker 2: I'm just bad.
- 11:20Speaker 5: We'll get the kid moving on. Those are the get
- 11:22Speaker 5: him a matchbox of a white Bronco and that'll be
- 11:24Speaker 5: that'll be the end of the illusion.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Any ideas in my kid's head? He's already so feral.
- 11:29Speaker 2: I don't need him copying what O.J.
- 11:31Speaker 4: Did.
- 11:31Speaker 7: If the jersey doesn't fit, you know, he's a boy.
- 11:34Speaker 7: You're going to be in the midst of I don't know.
- 11:37Speaker 7: He's always he's already trying to actively hurt himself and
- 11:39Speaker 7: harm every single moment himself. Always.
- 11:42Speaker 5: You're you're the next victim.
- 11:44Speaker 6: I know.
- 11:44Speaker 7: Within the next two to three months, you will be
- 11:46Speaker 7: the victim. It's a fun time, though, to get through.
- 11:49Speaker 6: I have to say, I always wanted to have a
- 11:51Speaker 6: girl until I had a boy, and now I said, no,
- 11:53Speaker 6: thank you. I do not want a girl. That seems
- 11:54Speaker 6: like way too much work. I would rather have a feral... But, like,
- 11:58Speaker 6: Lena's so cute.
- 11:59Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 12:00Speaker 5: I appreciate that.
- 12:00Speaker 2: She's so beautiful. I agree.
- 12:02Speaker 6: And adorable, but I can't. I'm not a girl's, like,
- 12:06Speaker 6: I'm a girl's girl. I'm not a girly girl, you know?
- 12:09Speaker 6: And I feel like I'm a boy mom through and through.
- 12:12Speaker 8: You feel that now because you have that, but you
- 12:14Speaker 8: would be great at it.
- 12:16Speaker 2: You'd be great at it.
- 12:17Speaker 6: She'd ask me to do her hair, and I would
- 12:18Speaker 6: just panic. You're like, here's a ball cap, kiddo.
- 12:23Speaker 2: You'll be okay. I've learned to do a ponytail. I
- 12:26Speaker 2: think you'll be.
- 12:26Speaker 5: Able to also. You guys want to win a trivia
- 12:29Speaker 5: or a bar bet contest? Speaking of jerseys, what number
- 12:34Speaker 5: does Pat Murphy wear? Well, that's a great one.
- 12:36Speaker 2: He changes it every damn year. You never see it.
- 12:38Speaker 5: He's changed it several times since he's been with the crew.
- 12:40Speaker 2: You never see him in the jersey. But he's never
- 12:42Speaker 2: in a jersey. He doesn't even wear it.
- 12:43Speaker 5: They used to have the rule that managers had to
- 12:45Speaker 5: wear it. None of them do it. They wear hoodies.
- 12:46Speaker 2: I'm convinced he doesn't wear it.
- 12:48Speaker 6: He wears like the Bill Belichick kind of jersey.
- 12:50Speaker 8: People are trying to buy that, and they can't find it.
- 12:52Speaker 2: Oh, I have no idea.
- 12:54Speaker 7: I'm going to go, because I'm pretty sure I saw
- 12:56Speaker 7: it at a card show.
- 12:58Speaker 5: It's probably one of the old ones.
- 12:59Speaker 8: 21?
- 12:59Speaker 2: He was 21.
- 12:59Speaker 4: Wow.
- 12:59Speaker 1: Oh, man.
- 13:03Speaker 5: He was 49, and then Gallardo, and then he's 59,
- 13:05Speaker 5: and then he doesn't really care.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Why does he change it so much?
- 13:08Speaker 5: Then he's 21 for Roberto Clemente, and now he's double zeros.
- 13:13Speaker 4: Oh, really?
- 13:14Speaker 8: That would be a tremendous jersey to get.
- 13:17Speaker 5: That's an epic jersey. I had zero idea.
- 13:19Speaker 8: You know, I remember one time when Girardi was getting tossed,
- 13:23Speaker 8: and he took off his sweatshirt or jacket, and he
- 13:25Speaker 8: just had, like, the Under Armour Yankees shirt, and I'm like,
- 13:27Speaker 8: wait a minute, he's not wearing a jersey? This was
- 13:29Speaker 8: maybe 15 years ago. It's the first time I realized,
- 13:31Speaker 8: I bet these managers aren't even wearing jerseys anymore. They're
- 13:34Speaker 8: not even wearing uniforms.
- 13:34Speaker 2: They don't.
- 13:35Speaker 4: No.
- 13:35Speaker 2: They don't.
- 13:36Speaker 5: Jason Lane wears number 40. Yeah, okay, that's not bad.
- 13:41Speaker 5: Every other Brewers coach's number is north of 70. Maybe
- 13:45Speaker 5: you're 68. I think the only one that I've ever
- 13:47Speaker 5: seen in the jersey is Daniel. He's got number 95.
- 13:51Speaker 2: He rocks the 95.
- 13:52Speaker 5: He's a translator.
- 13:54Speaker 2: He's a coach, but he has a translator.
- 13:56Speaker 5: Matt Erickson's 68. If you're coaching a base, you know.
- 13:59Speaker 2: That's true. You've got to have one on.
- 14:01Speaker 8: Am I crazy or do they have to market that better?
- 14:04Speaker 8: Everybody would want the 00 Murph.
- 14:05Speaker 7: The Murph 00 would be a huge seller.
- 14:09Speaker 2: It's like a double pancake.
- 14:11Speaker 5: Yeah, that's true.
- 14:12Speaker 2: That's true. That's true.
- 14:14Speaker 4: Wow.
- 14:14Speaker 2: Well done.
- 14:15Speaker 4: Yes.
- 14:15Speaker 5: But he never wears it.
- 14:16Speaker 2: He never wears it. No, I get it. I get it. Pat,
- 14:19Speaker 2: we need you to wear it. Obviously, he listens to
- 14:21Speaker 2: this all the time.
- 14:21Speaker 5: Speaking of the crew, did you see the guys' star turn?
- 14:25Speaker 5: This is the first time I think the Brewers have
- 14:26Speaker 5: been represented on national TV since a bunch of them
- 14:28Speaker 5: were on General Hospital. It was like Supan and a
- 14:31Speaker 5: bunch of guys.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Remember that?
- 14:32Speaker 8: Yeah, and the offensive linemen were in a Pitch Perfect 2.
- 14:36Speaker 5: Pitch Perfect 2 or 3.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Don't you remember that, Billy?
- 14:39Speaker 8: It was Lang and Bakhtiari.
- 14:42Speaker 2: It was all linemen.
- 14:44Speaker 5: But the Brewers on SNL was like otherworldly. It's like
- 14:47Speaker 5: this whole thing about them winning is... is like harder
- 14:50Speaker 5: and surreal. But then seeing them pop up, you know,
- 14:52Speaker 5: with Yelich and Turing and Murph on SNL.
- 14:54Speaker 6: But I felt like they missed a lot. Like they
- 14:56Speaker 6: could have referenced the pocket pancakes on there. Why was
- 14:59Speaker 6: Sal Freelick not on there? Was he still drunk?
- 15:01Speaker 2: I have a lot of questions on that. I thought
- 15:03Speaker 2: that was interesting.
- 15:04Speaker 5: I think Sal Freelick was busy trick-or-treating.
- 15:06Speaker 2: That's true.
- 15:06Speaker 5: He was trick-or-treating.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Do you want to?
- 15:08Speaker 5: No, I'm going to go try to get some full-size stickers.
- 15:10Speaker 8: They all have different kind of, not obligations, but they
- 15:13Speaker 8: all have different schedules and things.
- 15:14Speaker 2: Who knows?
- 15:15Speaker 6: I know, but I was just surprised because I feel
- 15:17Speaker 6: like if you don't really, like I've had so many
- 15:19Speaker 6: people reach out. They're like, this Sal guy seems like
- 15:21Speaker 6: the man that aren't in Milwaukee or even Wisconsin.
- 15:24Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 15:24Speaker 6: And I feel like obviously Yelich is like kind of
- 15:26Speaker 6: the star, right?
- 15:27Speaker 2: He's a captain.
- 15:28Speaker 5: He's their best, I'd say, known player, former MVP, you know.
- 15:31Speaker 2: But I just thought that was interesting. Like, no Sally? Sally.
- 15:34Speaker 7: We did yesterday top five, you know, our honor of
- 15:37Speaker 7: the polls that were up yesterday. Our top five most
- 15:40Speaker 7: famous Wisconsin athletes right now. And I put Sal as
- 15:44Speaker 7: number five just because of the vibes. Not player-wise, but
- 15:49Speaker 7: he had to be in the top five because I
- 15:50Speaker 7: don't know anybody that is talking about the Brewers and
- 15:53Speaker 7: not mentioning Sal Frehlich.
- 15:54Speaker 2: For sure. He's like their little golden retriever. So who
- 15:57Speaker 2: else was on the list? Who else was on the
- 15:58Speaker 2: top five?
- 15:59Speaker 5: Started with Miz, number one.
- 16:01Speaker 3: Okay.
- 16:01Speaker 7: Because he's got the Forrest Gump love.
- 16:04Speaker 2: He's the best player. He's a phenomenon.
- 16:06Speaker 7: He's a phenomenon. He's going to win the Cy Young.
- 16:09Speaker 7: Number two was Cheerio. I went Contreras. Did I go
- 16:13Speaker 7: Contreras number three or did I go Yelich number three?
- 16:15Speaker 2: I can't remember. I believe I went Contreras number three.
- 16:18Speaker 7: Love for Freelick five.
- 16:20Speaker 5: So Yelich didn't even make the list. Wow.
- 16:22Speaker 8: That's what's so impressive about this team. You could pick
- 16:25Speaker 8: ten guys. You could come up with so many guys
- 16:27Speaker 8: that could be that guy.
- 16:29Speaker 7: It was hard to even crowbar in the starting quarterback
- 16:32Speaker 7: for the Green Bay Packers.
- 16:33Speaker 2: I was going to say. And some guy named Jordan
- 16:35Speaker 2: Love made the list.
- 16:36Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy. Do you feel like the Packers, not that.
- 16:41Speaker 6: They got like the shaft, but they kind of like
- 16:42Speaker 6: got like the backseat right now.
- 16:44Speaker 2: Like people are like, oh, yeah, I forgot the Packers.
- 16:45Speaker 5: Oh, they for sure have the backseat.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Which is crazy to think.
- 16:49Speaker 5: Very much crazy. Kind of a good thing for them.
- 16:53Speaker 2: Not not the worst pressure off a little bit.
- 16:55Speaker 7: Not the worst thing for them to be able to
- 16:57Speaker 7: kind of lay in the weeds in the month of
- 16:59Speaker 7: october they kind of settled some of their stuff down
- 17:02Speaker 7: yeah now they might be ready and poised this weekend
- 17:05Speaker 7: could be big one i know you despise that team
- 17:08Speaker 7: in blue red and silver they're gonna go take the
- 17:10Speaker 7: patriots on this weekend they are oh i hope they
- 17:13Speaker 7: blast so this is a it's kind of a big
- 17:16Speaker 7: one they get the brady game Brady in the Foxborough booth.
- 17:20Speaker 7: He hasn't called many games in Foxborough yet.
- 17:23Speaker 5: So it's a, it's kind of a big deal on
- 17:25Speaker 5: Fox and three 25 this week.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Gross.
- 17:26Speaker 6: I don't think Tom Brady is bad at his job.
- 17:28Speaker 6: I actually think he's pretty decent compared to some of
- 17:30Speaker 6: the other guys. But I hate when he's on a
- 17:32Speaker 6: Bills game because there are so many shots fired and
- 17:35Speaker 6: it just irks me to know that.
- 17:36Speaker 2: But him and Josh are friends.
- 17:38Speaker 6: They are, but he talks about the city of Buffalo,
- 17:41Speaker 6: that kind of stuff.
- 17:42Speaker 5: Oh, it tries to be like Indiana.
- 17:43Speaker 2: Take your shots at the Bills, but you don't have
- 17:44Speaker 2: to take your shots at my hometown.
- 17:46Speaker 5: Brady has really improved, though.
- 17:48Speaker 2: I think he's good.
- 17:49Speaker 5: He's come a long way.
- 17:50Speaker 2: I don't think he's terrible. I like Greg Olson. I
- 17:53Speaker 2: wish there was more of him. He's really good. I
- 17:55Speaker 2: think he might be my favorite.
- 17:56Speaker 5: You might get a lot more Greg Olson.
- 17:59Speaker 7: You might get a lot more Greg Olson on that
- 18:02Speaker 7: Monday Night Football broadcast.
- 18:04Speaker 5: Troy's going to be a free agent soon, so that's
- 18:06Speaker 5: a good point, Billy.
- 18:07Speaker 2: See ya.
- 18:08Speaker 5: But Billy's theory, and Billy's on a roll with predictions lately.
- 18:12Speaker 2: You think that I hope I hope you're right.
- 18:13Speaker 5: He thinks that, you know, the Kelsey brothers. Yeah, I
- 18:16Speaker 5: think it's going to be Travis, Travis, Jason, Jason and
- 18:19Speaker 5: Travis and Joe Buck.
- 18:21Speaker 2: Oh, I don't.
- 18:21Speaker 6: I don't like that. And it's nothing against them. It's just,
- 18:24Speaker 6: you know, there's some celebrities. They just get so oversaturated.
- 18:27Speaker 6: Like Kevin Hart for a while. You were like, please just.
- 18:30Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 18:32Speaker 2: I can't see you anymore. Yeah.
- 18:34Speaker 6: Like, I feel like it's going to happen with Kiki
- 18:36Speaker 6: Palmer and I love her, but she's everywhere.
- 18:39Speaker 2: I just that's how I feel about the Kelsey brothers.
- 18:42Speaker 6: Especially Kylie Kelsey. Like I can't with that whole thing either.
- 18:46Speaker 6: It's just too much.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Too much.
- 18:48Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 18:48Speaker 5: Like the guy from that. What was that popular show?
- 18:51Speaker 8: Yeah that one that's really bad i guess i didn't
- 18:53Speaker 8: that one was like that one was awesome this guy
- 18:55Speaker 8: the guy that was the main character you know where
- 18:56Speaker 8: they go to the where they go to the resort
- 18:58Speaker 8: and they all die they'll kill each other.
- 18:59Speaker 3: But oh the guy with the big forehead that's what
- 19:01Speaker 3: i'm saying he's everywhere the last i only remembered him
- 19:03Speaker 3: white lotus yeah white lotus he was the only thing
- 19:06Speaker 3: i remembered him from i forget his name now he
- 19:07Speaker 3: was on major league three back to the minors he
- 19:09Speaker 3: was billy of downtown anderson 20 years later.
- 19:12Speaker 5: He's on this show and now he's on every commercial in.
- 19:14Speaker 2: America every yeah you're right he is one of those
- 19:16Speaker 2: so famous i can't remember his name of the show i.
- 19:18Speaker 6: Have no idea either if it makes you feel any
- 19:20Speaker 6: better but yeah That's how I feel about the Kelsey brothers.
- 19:22Speaker 5: White Lotus guy.
- 19:24Speaker 2: White Lotus guy.
- 19:25Speaker 4: Yeah. Goggins?
- 19:27Speaker 1: Probably.
- 19:27Speaker 5: You brought up Kiki Palmer. I just still can't believe
- 19:29Speaker 5: her Disney Channel show didn't catch on.
- 19:32Speaker 2: I didn't even know she had a Disney Channel.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 19:33Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 19:34Speaker 7: They had a big pilot and everything. I think it
- 19:35Speaker 7: was Kiki and Jamal. It was a pilot. It was
- 19:39Speaker 7: going to be a hot one. It was going to
- 19:40Speaker 7: be a banger.
- 19:42Speaker 2: I love her.
- 19:42Speaker 5: They missed out. I've never watched White Lotus, but Armin,
- 19:45Speaker 5: you said the big forehead guy. That's Walton Goggins.
- 19:47Speaker 2: That's funny that you were like, I know exactly who
- 19:50Speaker 2: that is.
- 19:51Speaker 5: He's got a big forehead. It's a five head or
- 19:53Speaker 5: a six head.
- 19:54Speaker 2: It's a six head.
- 19:54Speaker 5: Laura loved that show, so we were watching it. It
- 19:57Speaker 5: was pretty good, I guess.
- 19:57Speaker 2: Yeah, sure. It was Laura. That's why you were watching it. Yeah,
- 19:59Speaker 2: that's why.
- 20:00Speaker 8: I wouldn't be afraid to admit I liked White Lotus
- 20:02Speaker 8: if you really want me to.
- 20:04Speaker 6: Real quick, non-sports related, if you're looking for something to watch.
- 20:07Speaker 6: The Matthew Perry docuseries on Netflix. Started watching that.
- 20:10Speaker 2: Holy, it is so good. Really, really good. Something to
- 20:14Speaker 2: check out. That's not sports related in case you need
- 20:16Speaker 2: a little sports. Cleanse your palate. That's a good call.
- 20:19Speaker 5: It's a good call to cleanse the palate. Piss the
- 20:21Speaker 5: season to find shows to stream and documentaries to watch.
- 20:24Speaker 2: Something that's not sports, even though we love sports. And
- 20:26Speaker 2: a good series.
- 20:28Speaker 5: And a good documentary or something.
- 20:30Speaker 2: Yeah, it's good.
- 20:31Speaker 8: Megan George said, Yeltsin's on a Y5O, the area 1 MVP.
- 20:34Speaker 8: All right, there's something.
- 20:38Speaker 5: Was Scott Kahn on that show? The remake, right? Shanna,
- 20:43Speaker 5: thank you for popping in.
- 20:44Speaker 2: Always a pleasure.
- 20:46Speaker 5: We will be right back, and John Greenberg, president of
- 20:47Speaker 5: the Admirals, will join us here in the huddle, Fox
- 20:50Speaker 5: Sports Radio, Wisconsin. We just had the queen of country
- 20:54Speaker 5: music in the studio now on line one of the
- 20:56Speaker 5: NicoletLaw.com talk and text line, El Jefe himself, president of
- 20:59Speaker 5: the Milwaukee Admirals, friend of the huddle, John Greenberg. joins us.
- 21:03Speaker 2: Greeny, good afternoon. How are things?
- 21:05Speaker 4: Things are great. How are you doing, boys?
- 21:07Speaker 2: We're good.
- 21:08Speaker 5: We're celebrating the one-week anniversary. What's the traditional gift for
- 21:11Speaker 5: one weekend after you win a championship? What's the traditional
- 21:14Speaker 5: gift that we have?
- 21:16Speaker 4: Well, I think it's probably, frankly, to try and keep
- 21:20Speaker 4: up with Sal.
- 21:20Speaker 2: Yes. Good luck on that one. That's a good call.
- 21:24Speaker 5: That's probably a good call, like a six-pack or a.
- 21:26Speaker 2: You know. Yeah.
- 21:28Speaker 4: Yeah, just a little commemorative kind of a thing. Yeah, absolutely.
- 21:32Speaker 7: Just a little something to remind you. And listen, if
- 21:35Speaker 7: you're going to go out doing some shopping, you want
- 21:37Speaker 7: to check out episode 315 of Let It Simmer. President
- 21:40Speaker 7: of the Milwaukee Admirals, John Greenberg, was a guest on
- 21:43Speaker 7: Aaron Simms' podcast. When you get to celebrate, and we
- 21:47Speaker 7: talked about the excitement, the jubilation, the excitement during game
- 21:52Speaker 7: five on Wednesday night while we're there for a game
- 21:55Speaker 7: and for an Admirals game, the excitement on the ice
- 21:58Speaker 7: matched the highlights that we were able to pump in
- 22:01Speaker 7: during the game.
- 22:02Speaker 2: That was an awesome touch on Wednesday night.
- 22:05Speaker 4: Yeah, frankly, it was a little surreal to do that
- 22:09Speaker 4: and be playing up against that. I was grateful for
- 22:14Speaker 4: all the people who chose to come out, and I
- 22:15Speaker 4: know that people were multitasking by watching on their phones
- 22:20Speaker 4: or watching down in the Coors Light chill zone. I
- 22:22Speaker 4: had taken my... I had taken a special seat for
- 22:26Speaker 4: the night in my commemorative Bob Uecker plaid jersey, sitting
- 22:31Speaker 4: up in the corner watching the game. It was very surreal,
- 22:37Speaker 4: but it was great that it all worked out the
- 22:40Speaker 4: way it did. People stuck around afterwards to watch the
- 22:43Speaker 4: end of it. There was a group to be able
- 22:45Speaker 4: to celebrate with. It was a fun night.
- 22:49Speaker 5: When you watch the Brewers execute the parade, and with
- 22:52Speaker 5: help from the city and Summerfest, obviously, it made me think,
- 22:55Speaker 5: what is the Admirals' Calder Cup celebration going to look like?
- 23:00Speaker 5: Did you crib any ideas? You guys have no shortage
- 23:03Speaker 5: of creative people on your team, Greeny. But I think,
- 23:06Speaker 5: did you get any ideas of what you would do?
- 23:08Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. And, you know, the good thing is,
- 23:12Speaker 4: is when we finish... you know, Caldercomb finals finished during
- 23:16Speaker 4: the summer fest really. Um, so, uh, I think we
- 23:19Speaker 4: can just come right back down there and kind of
- 23:21Speaker 4: run it back, but minus, minus the parade a little bit,
- 23:24Speaker 4: but I think the summer fest and, and having some
- 23:27Speaker 4: fun with that would be great. I actually, uh, was
- 23:29Speaker 4: in the amphitheater for the, uh, celebration and I was walking.
- 23:33Speaker 4: I didn't have any admirals gear on at all. And
- 23:35Speaker 4: some guy would somehow recognize me and, said, you know,
- 23:38Speaker 4: go Admirals. And I just turned around and I'm like, oh, yeah,
- 23:40Speaker 4: we're next. So, you know, we're looking forward to being
- 23:45Speaker 4: able to do something to be able to celebrate, which,
- 23:47Speaker 4: you know, for me, what would be my first championship
- 23:50Speaker 4: would mean the world to me to celebrate it the
- 23:53Speaker 4: right way.
- 23:54Speaker 7: Well, and much like the Brewers, been knocking on the
- 23:56Speaker 7: door for a while now, Greeny. I know that there's
- 23:59Speaker 7: obvious plans ahead. that have to be put in place
- 24:02Speaker 7: and the thought and the foresight is always there for
- 24:05Speaker 7: the next round. But knowing that you've been close, that
- 24:08Speaker 7: does have to feel a little bit serendipitous. You see
- 24:12Speaker 7: the team in, on the baseball side, knocking on the
- 24:15Speaker 7: door and the admirals have been knocking on the.
- 24:16Speaker 5: Door as well.
- 24:17Speaker 7: There are the Caldner cup finals and the championship.
- 24:20Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. And, you know, I had some people say,
- 24:23Speaker 4: it's like, how in the world did they put that together? And,
- 24:25Speaker 4: you know, 48 hours, I'm like, why didn't they put
- 24:27Speaker 4: that together? There was a group of people that were
- 24:31Speaker 4: sworn to secrecy, putting all that stuff together and... Here,
- 24:35Speaker 4: if we're going to do that, I have some people
- 24:37Speaker 4: that are very superstitious who refer to the hockey gods
- 24:40Speaker 4: here on a somewhat regular basis, and they would not
- 24:43Speaker 4: be able to be part of this because there's no
- 24:45Speaker 4: way they'd be able to mentally put themselves in a
- 24:48Speaker 4: position to do it. But we'd have a creative group
- 24:50Speaker 4: of people here to make sure that we celebrate it
- 24:53Speaker 4: the right way.
- 24:53Speaker 7: Yeah, Greeny, I've gotten yelled at enough times when I
- 24:55Speaker 7: mention the frosty four when you only have three goals.
- 24:57Speaker 2: Hey, let's lock it up over there.
- 25:00Speaker 7: We don't want to upset anybody and jinx anything right now.
- 25:03Speaker 5: That's right. Hockey people are very superstitious.
- 25:07Speaker 2: You think you're a little snitches? Very superstitious.
- 25:10Speaker 5: John Greenberg joining us, President of Milwaukee Admirals. MilwaukeeAdmirals.com. Greenberg,
- 25:14Speaker 5: let's talk about Saturday night. You're saluting the military, which
- 25:17Speaker 5: is a special night and a longstanding Admirals tradition.
- 25:19Speaker 4: It is a longstanding tradition that we're very, very proud
- 25:23Speaker 4: to be able to offer each year. For anybody who's
- 25:29Speaker 4: current military or a veteran, um, there are still tickets
- 25:32Speaker 4: available through vet ticks.org. Uh, that's how tickets are, are
- 25:37Speaker 4: acquired for this game where we have well over a thousand, uh,
- 25:41Speaker 4: veterans and active military and their families coming out, uh,
- 25:44Speaker 4: just out of that group. So that, that is still available.
- 25:47Speaker 4: If anybody's listening or, you know, somebody who, uh, thinks
- 25:51Speaker 4: that should take advantage of that deal, but we're doing that.
- 25:53Speaker 4: We've also got, uh, A little brewer's touch to the
- 25:57Speaker 4: national anthem is Bob Kozlowski is going to be singing
- 26:01Speaker 4: the national anthem for us on Saturday night. And we
- 26:06Speaker 4: also have a lovely gentleman named John Oberg, who's a
- 26:09Speaker 4: Korean War veteran. He's 96 years old, who is going
- 26:13Speaker 4: to sing God Bless America. So we've got the 484th
- 26:18Speaker 4: Army Band is going to entertain during the night, and
- 26:21Speaker 4: we've got a gentleman who has just returned from active
- 26:25Speaker 4: duty over in the current conflict who is going to

- 26:34Speaker 4: and I really hope people take advantage of it. coming
- 26:37Speaker 4: down to say thank you to all these people. And
- 26:40Speaker 4: we're also doing a drive to acquire things for a
- 26:46Speaker 4: veterans group that provides items for those veterans who may
- 26:51Speaker 4: need a little bit of extra help. So please check
- 26:54Speaker 4: our website at MilwaukeeArmors.com for all the details with that.
- 26:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be there.
- 26:58Speaker 8: You guys always do it right. And just hearing Bob sing,
- 27:01Speaker 8: I mean, that's worth the price of admission, I would think. Right, guys?
- 27:04Speaker 2: I mean, come on. That's amazing. Amazing, yeah.
- 27:06Speaker 7: Well, and also the first 2,500 people through the gates
- 27:09Speaker 7: receive a very sweet military-themed Admiral shirt coming up this weekend, right?
- 27:14Speaker 4: Yep, absolutely. Thanks to our friends from Baird. And those
- 27:16Speaker 4: are size medium and extra large for those. And I
- 27:20Speaker 4: just saw the shirt today for the first time, and
- 27:23Speaker 4: it's very cool. I think people will want to have
- 27:25Speaker 4: one of those. So when you come through the doors
- 27:27Speaker 4: at Panther Arena, you'll be given a voucher, and then
- 27:30Speaker 4: you head down to the Coors Light Chill Zone, and
- 27:32Speaker 4: that's where you redeem your voucher for the shirt of
- 27:34Speaker 4: your preferred size.
- 27:36Speaker 7: Now, Greeny, I know Saturday is the exciting day, and
- 27:39Speaker 7: that's where we can salute the military. We salute all
- 27:42Speaker 7: the second, third, fourth, fifth graders coming up. I'm going
- 27:47Speaker 7: to be there for the school day game coming up
- 27:48Speaker 7: next week. Uh, I do have some very, very awesome
- 27:52Speaker 7: earplugs from our friends from summer fest.
- 27:54Speaker 2: I know that's a winning weekday as well.
- 27:57Speaker 7: Is that, is that, uh, you know, encourage, or is
- 27:59Speaker 7: that potentially necessary for some urge for those that are
- 28:03Speaker 7: coming that, uh, might not want to reach those decibel
- 28:06Speaker 7: levels coming up on.
- 28:07Speaker 4: Uh, yeah, I wholeheartedly, uh, encourage earplugs, uh, Uh, cause, uh,
- 28:13Speaker 4: the maestro, Michael, uh, he will call for make noise
- 28:17Speaker 4: about 157 times during the course of the game and, uh,
- 28:20Speaker 4: they'll do it. So, uh, they, they, they get loud
- 28:24Speaker 4: and they have fun with it. And, um, you know, it's, uh,
- 28:27Speaker 4: It's an education game too, believe it or not. We
- 28:29Speaker 4: give out workbooks. Three different levels of workbooks. We do
- 28:34Speaker 4: a little bit of science, a little bit of geography,
- 28:35Speaker 4: that kind of stuff. Teachers can feel like it's not
- 28:39Speaker 4: just a totally wasted date of loss. We're going to
- 28:42Speaker 4: actually teach you something.
- 28:43Speaker 8: It's a very important part of any field trip is
- 28:45Speaker 8: the educational part. You always make sure you get the
- 28:47Speaker 8: educational in there. That was always a big thing when
- 28:50Speaker 8: you went on that field trip. I always go through
- 28:51Speaker 8: the workbook first myself to see how many I can answer,
- 28:53Speaker 8: to see if I can beat a fifth grader.
- 28:55Speaker 5: That's always fun, but If you like an electric atmosphere,
- 28:58Speaker 5: this is the one.
- 28:59Speaker 8: I mean, there is so much energy and, you know,
- 29:02Speaker 8: thoughts and prayers to everyone working the bubble waffle stand
- 29:04Speaker 8: because they're going to have their work.
- 29:06Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 29:06Speaker 2: I mean, that's going to be a long one.
- 29:08Speaker 8: So you have an interesting. Obviously, those games coming up
- 29:11Speaker 8: at the arena are going to be exciting. And then
- 29:12Speaker 8: there's some time on the road, but an interesting kind
- 29:15Speaker 8: of schedule on the road coming up some places. I
- 29:17Speaker 8: know that we don't normally see opponents. We normally see Wilkes-Barre, Hartford,
- 29:21Speaker 8: I think Providence as well. So that's kind of an
- 29:24Speaker 8: interesting East Coast jaunt, John.
- 29:27Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely. We wanted to get some different teams on
- 29:29Speaker 4: the schedule this year, and that road trip's coming up. So,
- 29:33Speaker 4: you know, we could fly into Wilkes-Barre and then bus
- 29:36Speaker 4: over to Hartford and, take the quick 25-minute ride from
- 29:41Speaker 4: Hartford to Providence. So it's an easy trip for us
- 29:44Speaker 4: to make and see some different teams. You'll see the
- 29:47Speaker 4: affiliates of the Penguins, the Rangers, and the Bruins, which
- 29:50Speaker 4: we don't normally see. And those teams will all be
- 29:52Speaker 4: coming to Milwaukee at some point during the course of
- 29:54Speaker 4: the season as well. So it's a chance to let
- 29:58Speaker 4: our fans see a little something different. And I know
- 30:01Speaker 4: our guys really appreciate that, too. Last year's schedule was hard.
- 30:04Speaker 4: We played 36 games, half of our schedule, against three teams.
- 30:08Speaker 4: And that gets... A little tiresome. So to be able
- 30:11Speaker 4: to mix it up a little bit is something I
- 30:13Speaker 4: know the guys are looking forward to.
- 30:15Speaker 5: I was just looking at the schedule, Greeny, and you're
- 30:18Speaker 5: playing the Iowa Wild on Saturday night for your salute
- 30:21Speaker 5: to service and the veterans. And then they're also in
- 30:24Speaker 5: for the school game Tuesday. In between, they have a
- 30:26Speaker 5: game Sunday in the afternoon against Rockford. So are they
- 30:31Speaker 5: going to anchor in Milwaukee and travel to Rockford and
- 30:33Speaker 5: come back and use Milwaukee as a home base? What
- 30:35Speaker 5: do you think that their logistics will be? And, oh,
- 30:37Speaker 5: they start the runoff tomorrow with a school day game
- 30:40Speaker 5: at home. So they have two school day games in
- 30:42Speaker 5: five days.
- 30:43Speaker 2: What do the analytics say doing that?
- 30:47Speaker 4: I don't know, but I would tell you that if
- 30:49Speaker 4: they're smart, they'll spend their whole time in Milwaukee. you
- 30:53Speaker 4: really don't necessarily want to do it in the place
- 30:55Speaker 4: in between. But no, be in Milwaukee. Absolutely. It's the
- 31:00Speaker 4: city of champions, and that's where you want to be.
- 31:02Speaker 2: The armpit of the Midwest?
- 31:04Speaker 5: Well, give it a choice. Would you rather be in
- 31:05Speaker 5: Milwaukee or Rockford?
- 31:06Speaker 2: I mean, come on. It's not even a thought.
- 31:09Speaker 7: Ten times out of ten, you could tell me the
- 31:10Speaker 7: room was haunted, and I'd still want to be in Milwaukee.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Well, they got the All-Star game, didn't they?
- 31:13Speaker 5: Guaranteed.
- 31:16Speaker 4: They did have the All-Star game, and they did a
- 31:19Speaker 4: nice job with it, and people had a good time,
- 31:21Speaker 4: and we left as fast as we could.
- 31:24Speaker 8: Well, there must've been an Applebee's or something there.
- 31:29Speaker 2: The shuttles were hot that night. That's for sure. Hey,
- 31:32Speaker 2: we want, we want it next. See, come, come to Milwaukee.
- 31:35Speaker 5: We can put an all-star game on. That's what we
- 31:36Speaker 5: want next.
- 31:37Speaker 4: So, One of these days. Due time. One of these days.
- 31:40Speaker 4: This year we're going to Cleveland, which will be great.
- 31:43Speaker 4: That's a good market. They'll do a wonderful job there.
- 31:46Speaker 4: And we haven't heard about the year after, but we've
- 31:49Speaker 4: got some plans. It's kind of percolating. And we know
- 31:52Speaker 4: that Milwaukee can pull off big things. We just saw
- 31:54Speaker 4: that last week.
- 31:55Speaker 8: Oh, yes.
- 31:56Speaker 4: We're pretty sure we can make a party out of
- 31:59Speaker 4: an all-star game in Milwaukee.
- 32:00Speaker 8: When Greeny says we've got some plans, that's when I
- 32:02Speaker 8: get excited. I know he's got something in the hopper
- 32:04Speaker 8: right there.
- 32:05Speaker 2: So that's good. I love it.
- 32:06Speaker 5: That's classic. The jokes write themselves about Rockford. The best
- 32:10Speaker 5: things that come out of Rockford, the Hall of Fame
- 32:12Speaker 5: band Cheap Trick and I-90.
- 32:14Speaker 1: I-90, yes.
- 32:16Speaker 2: The first freaking thing smoking. Absolutely.
- 32:20Speaker 5: Get me out of here. Cheap Trick, which has played
- 32:22Speaker 5: at post-game concerts with the Admirals in the past as well.
- 32:25Speaker 2: Legendary.
- 32:26Speaker 4: Absolutely, yeah. Yes, they have, and... We've got a couple
- 32:30Speaker 4: of concert announcements coming up over the next two weeks,
- 32:33Speaker 4: so keep your ears perked for those.
- 32:37Speaker 7: And I already know Dustin Lynch in February has some
- 32:39Speaker 7: people very excited. We talked to the queen of country music,
- 32:42Speaker 7: as you said, our friend Shanna Quinn, FM 106. That's
- 32:45Speaker 7: a show that a lot of people are going to
- 32:47Speaker 7: be wanting to see coming.
- 32:48Speaker 5: Up on February.
- 32:50Speaker 4: 27th, yeah, February 27th, and tickets are moving. So if
- 32:54Speaker 4: you're interested in that, I wouldn't wait until February 26th.
- 32:58Speaker 1: No.
- 32:58Speaker 7: And if you're one of the if you're one of us,
- 33:01Speaker 7: the huddlers that is listening to us and potentially of
- 33:04Speaker 7: the single variety. OK, that show might be one that
- 33:08Speaker 7: might be a show that you and the boys want
- 33:09Speaker 7: to get tickets to. I would just suggest that might
- 33:12Speaker 7: be one that you would want to have tickets to,
- 33:14Speaker 7: because I think the clientele might be pretty rich there
- 33:17Speaker 7: at the Dustin Lynch concert.
- 33:18Speaker 5: Might be a good one to be able to go to.
- 33:21Speaker 7: That seems like a great idea, Billy. Listen, you got
- 33:23Speaker 7: to help yourself out every once in a while. You
- 33:25Speaker 7: got to put the line in the water, and Dustin
- 33:28Speaker 7: Lynch is the right one to be able to hit
- 33:30Speaker 7: your wagon. And just in general, Admiral's game is an
- 33:32Speaker 7: underrated date night.
- 33:33Speaker 2: Let me tell you.
- 33:33Speaker 5: Oh, I've said that for years.
- 33:34Speaker 2: Very underrated date night.
- 33:35Speaker 5: People don't think about it.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Two halftimes.
- 33:37Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 33:38Speaker 7: And the guy that plays jokes or plays games with
- 33:41Speaker 7: people on the Jumbotron is phenomenal.
- 33:43Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 33:44Speaker 5: He's just, you know, he's always there for the vibes.
- 33:46Speaker 2: Right.
- 33:47Speaker 4: Right.
- 33:48Speaker 5: Greeny, thanks for joining us. We hope you have a
- 33:50Speaker 5: great weekend with the Salute to Veterans.
- 33:52Speaker 2: That's awesome.
- 33:52Speaker 5: And then when we reconvene, it'll be the day after
- 33:55Speaker 5: the school day game. That's going to be epic.
- 33:57Speaker 4: Yes. In between all of that, I'm squeezing in a
- 34:00Speaker 4: trip to Toronto to see Pecorine go in the Hall
- 34:02Speaker 4: of Fame.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Oh, I love that.
- 34:04Speaker 4: We'll have more to talk about next week for sure.
- 34:06Speaker 2: Fantastic.
- 34:06Speaker 5: That sounds fantastic. Thanks for joining us, Greeny. We appreciate it.
- 34:09Speaker 4: Thanks, boys.
- 34:10Speaker 5: John Greenberg, president of the Milwaukee Admirals, friend of the huddle. Pecorine.
- 34:15Speaker 2: Bad boy.
- 34:17Speaker 5: One of the great admirals of all time.
- 34:19Speaker 2: Put him up there with all the greats.
- 34:21Speaker 5: No doubt. Well deserved, too. That's awesome. Hall of Fame
- 34:24Speaker 5: dude and a Hall of Fame player for sure. When
- 34:27Speaker 5: we come back, we'll close up shop and we'll get
- 34:29Speaker 5: to our 420 story that we didn't get to yet,
- 34:31Speaker 5: but we will. And we'll remind people to use the
- 34:34Speaker 5: code HUDDLE for 25% off and free shipping at happyplacehemp.com
- 34:38Speaker 5: because that's the way we roll. Rob and Chris make
- 34:40Speaker 5: the best CBD products you'll find anywhere. And let's face it,
- 34:44Speaker 5: we talked about dinner in the crock pot a documentary
- 34:48Speaker 5: or a series to binge on netflix and a little
- 34:50Speaker 5: drift seltzer and that's the recipe.
- 34:54Speaker 7: That's a pretty good way to kill a winter night
- 34:56Speaker 7: to me you better believe it that's getting you over
- 34:59Speaker 7: the hump on a wednesday that's right that's right you're
- 35:01Speaker 7: in the huddle fox sports radio wisconsin.
- 35:08Speaker 5: Made it over the hump already That's pretty impressive. Getting
- 35:11Speaker 5: closer to the weekend. Getting closer to another Badger football tilt. Yes.
- 35:15Speaker 7: Packers Patriots. Both games are going to be good. I'm
- 35:19Speaker 7: predicting a sweep this weekend. Early, early prediction for a
- 35:24Speaker 7: sweep this weekend. Most importantly, it starts out. Badgers are
- 35:27Speaker 7: going to a bad week to be a scarlet golden
- 35:30Speaker 7: night or a scarlet night.
- 35:31Speaker 5: It better be.
- 35:32Speaker 7: It better be a bad week to be a scarlet
- 35:34Speaker 7: night because the Badgers need to feast on the Shianu.
- 35:38Speaker 5: It should be a chicken soup game.
- 35:41Speaker 2: You would hope.
- 35:41Speaker 7: Also, I mean, celebrating the military like we just talked
- 35:43Speaker 7: about with John Greenberg. It's the salute to military game.
- 35:46Speaker 7: Celebrate military veterans at Camp Randall. That's always a very,
- 35:50Speaker 7: very touching moment and a very important day when you
- 35:53Speaker 7: celebrate all those who have served at Camp Randall, which
- 35:57Speaker 7: we already know.
- 35:58Speaker 2: There you go.
- 35:58Speaker 5: That's why it's there. Yeah.
- 36:00Speaker 2: Fantastic.
- 36:01Speaker 4: All right.
- 36:02Speaker 2: We need a.
- 36:03Speaker 7: Mention of a 420 story. So we've got a couple
- 36:07Speaker 7: of candidates. I was going to say I fired up
- 36:10Speaker 7: a couple of possibilities here. Now, listen, whenever Chris Hansen
- 36:14Speaker 7: is streaming, I think that's always a possibility.
- 36:18Speaker 2: He's trending here.
- 36:19Speaker 7: Chris Hansen is trending. Once you get to a certain age,
- 36:24Speaker 7: am I the only one that immediately gets nervous? I
- 36:28Speaker 7: see a name trending of a certain age and I
- 36:30Speaker 7: immediately get nervous.
- 36:31Speaker 2: Instead, Chris Hansen.
- 36:34Speaker 7: Is Vince Carter today? If I got one left in me,
- 36:37Speaker 7: apparently Chris Hansen was on the online beat drew of
- 36:42Speaker 7: getting the catching the fate rather infamous right now. Apparently
- 36:48Speaker 7: YouTuber EDP four, four or five who they are apparently
- 36:54Speaker 7: finding and that he is going to be facing up
- 36:57Speaker 7: to 30 years in prison for for soliciting underage minors.
- 37:02Speaker 7: Chris Hansen of Catch a Predator fame from what? 20-some
- 37:06Speaker 7: years ago? Yeah, it was the late 2000s. When he
- 37:09Speaker 7: would walk in and somebody would have a pizza sitting
- 37:12Speaker 7: there and say, what's the pizza here for?
- 37:13Speaker 5: Who are you here to meet?
- 37:15Speaker 2: Not a 13-year-old girl. How's the cookie? You like that?
- 37:19Speaker 2: Who are you here to meet? Why are you here
- 37:20Speaker 2: to meet a 13-year-old girl? It's funny because I got
- 37:22Speaker 2: to chat right here.
- 37:23Speaker 5: Why did you bring schnapps and condoms out?
- 37:26Speaker 2: What were your intentions here?
- 37:27Speaker 5: You were just going to talk and mentor.
- 37:30Speaker 2: You were going to mentor her.
- 37:31Speaker 5: Is that what you guys.
- 37:32Speaker 2: Is that what it is here?
- 37:32Speaker 8: That's not what you said here when you wanted to blank, blank, blank.
- 37:36Speaker 7: So Chris Hansen apparently still got it in him. He
- 37:39Speaker 7: is not retired. They're making movies about Chris Hansen's To
- 37:43Speaker 7: Catch a Predator deal, which we talked about with Matt
- 37:45Speaker 7: Miller yesterday.
- 37:46Speaker 5: I still got to be able to see. I still
- 37:47Speaker 5: got to go and watch Robert Pattinson's one.
- 37:49Speaker 7: But instead, Drew, apparently you don't even have to see
- 37:51Speaker 7: the old ones because my man Chris Hansen's still doing it.
- 37:54Speaker 4: That.
- 37:55Speaker 7: We'll make you believe that you woke up in a
- 37:57Speaker 7: happy place. Drift seltzer dream of wait.
- 38:02Speaker 2: Chris Hansen.
- 38:04Speaker 5: What year is this?
- 38:06Speaker 2: 2011. Chris Hansen.
- 38:07Speaker 4: 2026.
- 38:07Speaker 2: Brewers with the World Series. Chris Hansen. What year is this? Nuts. Nuts.
- 38:12Speaker 5: Chris Hansen still doing it.
- 38:13Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 38:13Speaker 2: So there you go.
- 38:14Speaker 8: And apparently there's a community of I don't know about
- 38:16Speaker 8: the Internet. They're all arguing about who should get the credit.
- 38:19Speaker 8: Some guy wants more credit. I got to dive deeper
- 38:21Speaker 8: into this, Billy.
- 38:22Speaker 2: You know, I do.
- 38:24Speaker 5: We know you will.
- 38:25Speaker 7: I was going to say, I'm excited to know, Drew,
- 38:27Speaker 7: that I don't have to see any of it. Armin's
- 38:30Speaker 7: going to give me a full book report style essay
- 38:34Speaker 7: of what happened.
- 38:35Speaker 2: This used to hit the algo a lot more. I
- 38:37Speaker 2: don't know why I lost my.
- 38:38Speaker 5: Algorithm on all this content.
- 38:40Speaker 8: So I'm going to have to find it again and
- 38:43Speaker 8: dig into some of this stuff. But yeah, I mean, listen,
- 38:46Speaker 8: there's no retirement in his game. He's still out there
- 38:49Speaker 8: doing it. He ain't quitting, dude.
- 38:50Speaker 5: Armand's going to tell you everything that happened there and
- 38:52Speaker 5: then go through the 94 Western Conference finals.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll add that in there. Which is forgotten about
- 38:57Speaker 2: is a really good one.
- 38:57Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a really, really good one. Forgotten about a
- 38:59Speaker 5: really good one. Absolutely.
- 39:01Speaker 8: Absolutely.
- 39:02Speaker 4: Rockets.
- 39:03Speaker 2: Any more? You guys have any more?
- 39:05Speaker 8: Before we have two minutes, any more hot takes on Humpty?
- 39:08Speaker 8: My only one today was I had a random thought
- 39:11Speaker 8: that I said, are we talking about.
- 39:12Speaker 5: Robert Gasser enough?
- 39:13Speaker 8: I feel like we've been enjoying everybody, but we've got
- 39:17Speaker 8: to talk about Robert Gasser a little more.
- 39:19Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 39:19Speaker 8: I thought he had an amazing playoff, and he seems
- 39:21Speaker 8: to be going a little under the radar here.
- 39:25Speaker 2: Well, let's talk. That's all. Let's talk about it. bring
- 39:28Speaker 2: up his name.
- 39:28Speaker 7: Today all right diesel why not well he's uh he's
- 39:32Speaker 7: definitely one of the guys that has solidified drew that
- 39:34Speaker 7: they won the josh hater trade i.
- 39:37Speaker 2: Mean exactly whether will if william.
- 39:38Speaker 7: Contraris wasn't enough they ended up getting robert gasser for
- 39:42Speaker 7: five years out of it after his uh his elbow
- 39:45Speaker 7: injury i think He was kind of the crown jewel
- 39:47Speaker 7: of that one.
- 39:48Speaker 5: He sure as hell pitched like it. Bobby Gasser won
- 39:50Speaker 5: games at three of the toughest venues in the major leagues. Yeah,
- 39:53Speaker 5: his numbers are crazy. Dodger Stadium in the tropics.
- 39:56Speaker 7: Didn't he look swaggier every time he did it? I mean,
- 39:59Speaker 7: that's six-inning performance. Granted, it helps when you get a
- 40:02Speaker 7: 10-run lead at one point in it, but that can
- 40:05Speaker 7: be one of the tougher ones to pitch with when
- 40:06Speaker 7: he sits there for 35 minutes as the Brewer barrage
- 40:09Speaker 7: goes through in the fifth inning.
- 40:10Speaker 5: He grew the playoff Fu Manchu or whatever. I don't
- 40:13Speaker 5: know what it is.
- 40:13Speaker 2: He grew it, though. So he did also.
- 40:16Speaker 7: And this is one of the other reasons why I'm
- 40:18Speaker 7: and I'm glad your hot take was that we need
- 40:20Speaker 7: to be talking more about Bobby Gasser. His strut off
- 40:24Speaker 7: the mound on the strikeout was one of the better
- 40:26Speaker 7: is one of the better on field videos and memes
- 40:31Speaker 7: to come out of this because to tie it all
- 40:33Speaker 7: the way back at two o'clock when we started this
- 40:34Speaker 7: thing and drew asked, are we watching more baseball highlights?
- 40:39Speaker 7: or parade highlights that's one of the few memes drew
- 40:43Speaker 7: from this run that i do believe is coming out
- 40:45Speaker 7: of it from the field him strutting off not full-on
- 40:50Speaker 7: conor mcgregor but i like robert gasser a lot more
- 40:53Speaker 7: so i think i'm going to do the bobby gas
- 40:54Speaker 7: strut a lot more than i'm going to do the
- 40:56Speaker 7: mcgregor full-on swag he wasn't toned down a tick but
- 41:00Speaker 7: he was letting you know he was a boss walking
- 41:02Speaker 7: off there You need that.
- 41:03Speaker 2: Pretty cool.
- 41:03Speaker 8: Three starts, 15 innings, one run allowed,. 6 ERA, and
- 41:07Speaker 8: six shutouts in the World Series.
- 41:09Speaker 5: That ain't bad. I don't care who you are. That's pretty,
- 41:12Speaker 5: pretty good. Pretty good. No doubt. Happy first anniversary. First
- 41:16Speaker 5: week anniversary.
- 41:18Speaker 2: I like these.
- 41:19Speaker 5: These are really going to hit. Greeny was right. You
- 41:21Speaker 5: can either have a beer with Sal or you can
- 41:23Speaker 5: just get iced or something. Just take a knee and
- 41:27Speaker 5: shotgun that ice.
- 41:29Speaker 7: I think an ice might be a nice little change
- 41:31Speaker 7: up for Sal because as much as we all love
- 41:33Speaker 7: high life, I think he's probably had a lot.
- 41:36Speaker 5: No question. No question.
- 41:37Speaker 4: All right.
- 41:37Speaker 5: We are back at it. Tomorrow will be a day
- 41:39Speaker 5: closer to the weekend. See you at 2 o'clock.
- 41:42Speaker 4: Peace.
