- 1:45Speaker 5: sorry and bringing it to you. We spoke earlier about
- 1:48Speaker 5: all the news that's coming at US. We had a
- 1:50Speaker 5: guy score eighty three points. We had a US team
- 1:53Speaker 5: USA almost almost stumbled almost the Iceball Classic A is
- 1:56Speaker 5: there now, moon walking into the quarterfinals facing camp tomorrow,
- 2:01Speaker 5: got the Bucks imploding. We had Marquette losing last night,
- 2:03Speaker 5: Badger's playing today in the Big ten tournament, Badger Hockey
- 2:06Speaker 5: losing last night, Admirals winning in overtime. So much happening
- 2:09Speaker 5: right now. And we asked earlier what is the undercovered?
- 2:12Speaker 5: What are we not paying enough attention to? And one
- 2:14Speaker 5: of the first things we said was Brewer spring training.
- 2:17Speaker 5: So let's make a move to rectify that. Right now
- 2:19Speaker 5: by wellsoning our pal Hunter Bombguard live from the Fortress
- 2:22Speaker 5: of Solitude, joining us now in the huddle. Hunter, how
- 2:25Speaker 5: you doing.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Good morning.
- 2:26Speaker 4: How are you guys better?
- 2:28Speaker 2: Good?
- 2:28Speaker 5: We are good better now that we can talk some Brewers.
- 2:30Speaker 5: So for those who have been occupied with NFL free
- 2:34Speaker 5: agency in the new league year and all this stuff
- 2:36Speaker 5: that the Packers are doing, Hunter, what are we missing?
- 2:38Speaker 5: What's going on in Arizona? Give us a plug us in.
- 2:41Speaker 3: Well, I think it's you know, there's always pitching injuries
- 2:44Speaker 3: in spring training. I think right now it seems, you know,
- 2:48Speaker 3: I saw some people saying, oh my gosh, what is
- 2:51Speaker 3: going on? The pitching depth is going to be tested
- 2:53Speaker 3: early in the season. I'm like, compared to last year,
- 2:56Speaker 3: you had ten guys that were unavailable for this team
- 2:58Speaker 3: within the first week of the sea and so right now,
- 3:01Speaker 3: knock on wood, you're not to that point or even
- 3:04Speaker 3: close to it.
- 3:05Speaker 4: Right You've got Quinn Priest.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Obviously, usually there's one to two injuries in spring training
- 3:10Speaker 3: that you look at and say, okay, he might be
- 3:12Speaker 3: a little longer term. We'll see what Quinn gets back
- 3:16Speaker 3: with the specialist in Dallas that he saw, But otherwise
- 3:19Speaker 3: Logan Henderson sounds like he's dealing with some sortus. But
- 3:23Speaker 3: if all goes well today, he could be back in
- 3:25Speaker 3: a game as soon as next week, which is great,
- 3:28Speaker 3: and then otherwise you are pretty much healthy. Brandon Woodruff
- 3:31Speaker 3: is going to be throwing a live session here coming
- 3:34Speaker 3: up tomorrow, and so hopefully he can continue to ramp up.
- 3:38Speaker 3: Looks like they're going to, you know, maybe go Cactus
- 3:40Speaker 3: League game like they did on Saturday, and then do
- 3:42Speaker 3: a live game here and then see how things go,
- 3:45Speaker 3: and maybe he progresses to Opening Day.
- 3:47Speaker 4: We'll see.
- 3:48Speaker 3: So honestly, I think the biggest question is who's going
- 3:50Speaker 3: to start on opening Day. The roster seems to be sure.
- 3:53Speaker 3: There's maybe a couple of battles on the edges, but
- 3:56Speaker 3: most part it's set. So right now, I think it's
- 3:59Speaker 3: a little bit the cruise control. As you mentioned earlier, Drew,
- 4:01Speaker 3: it's kind of dog dates of spring training.
- 4:03Speaker 6: They are doing exactly what Drew asks you to do
- 4:05Speaker 6: in spring training. Right, just be five hundred, right, does
- 4:07Speaker 6: exactly win have lews have don't have any massive injuries.
- 4:11Speaker 6: But also I do wonder how much the WBC Hunter,
- 4:15Speaker 6: at least in your opinion, has kind of tamped down
- 4:17Speaker 6: the viewing of spring training, the attention towards spring training,
- 4:21Speaker 6: or maybe just some of the juice when Yelich gets
- 4:24Speaker 6: play in a road game. We like seeing that into
- 4:26Speaker 6: a night game. But there's like four guys out there
- 4:28Speaker 6: that are actually gonna be starters because a lot of
- 4:30Speaker 6: your best players are out representing nations.
- 4:34Speaker 3: Oh, I think for sure it's taken away some of
- 4:35Speaker 3: the jewics of spring training. I think it's taken the
- 4:38Speaker 3: just the attention away right which and rightfully so. The
- 4:40Speaker 3: World Baseball Classic has been fun. You obviously had the storyline.
- 4:43Speaker 3: You know, who would have thought we'd be glued to
- 4:45Speaker 3: our seats watching Italy in Mexico last night, But that's
- 4:47Speaker 3: what we were. And luckily Italy was pulling away early,
- 4:50Speaker 3: so you had that and the USA somehow, some way advances.
- 4:54Speaker 3: But you have that going on, and I think that
- 4:57Speaker 3: is obviously and when you have the stars playing in
- 5:00Speaker 3: those games, that's what that's what.
- 5:02Speaker 4: You're gonna gravitate to.
- 5:03Speaker 3: However, if you're in Arizona watching Brewers spring training right now,
- 5:06Speaker 3: you're still getting a great, a great opportunity to see
- 5:09Speaker 3: not only the guys that'll be impacting twenty twenty six,
- 5:12Speaker 3: but the guys who are impacted beyond. I mean, Miday
- 5:14Speaker 3: was in the lineup again yesterday. He's been getting a
- 5:16Speaker 3: lot of playing time top three and at bats when
- 5:18Speaker 3: it comes to the entire Brewers squad so far in
- 5:21Speaker 3: spring training. So even though he was moved to minor
- 5:23Speaker 3: league camp, he's still they still want him to get
- 5:26Speaker 3: at bats and it's cool to see him in a
- 5:28Speaker 3: line up with Yelich, or him in a line up
- 5:30Speaker 3: with Freelich or you know, that's the type of thing
- 5:32Speaker 3: you're still getting in spring training. But rightfully so, the
- 5:35Speaker 3: World Baseball Classic is getting the attention it deserves, and
- 5:39Speaker 3: the guys from the Brewers are making an impact, especially
- 5:42Speaker 3: Bryce Terang.
- 5:42Speaker 2: Well, no doubt, and I'm sure you can't peel your
- 5:45Speaker 2: eyes away from your chance to see the great Brewers
- 5:47Speaker 2: legend Abraham Toro, I mean with Team Canada.
- 5:50Speaker 4: I'm sure that that's the thing for you.
- 5:52Speaker 3: So yes, exactly, Yeah, a Brewer of old he yeah,
- 5:56Speaker 3: he along with Tyler Black and Rob Zie gonna try
- 5:58Speaker 3: to you know, beat the USA coming up tomorrow night
- 6:02Speaker 3: we had USA and Canada and both the gold medal
- 6:05Speaker 3: games for hockey and the Olympics. Now you get it
- 6:06Speaker 3: in the quarterfinals the World Baseball Classic. Quite a couple
- 6:09Speaker 3: of months for the rivalry of those two countries.
- 6:11Speaker 5: Is Andrew Fisher better served by playing in the WBC
- 6:14Speaker 5: than he would be in Brewers camp?
- 6:16Speaker 3: That's possible. I mean the level of competition, that's what
- 6:19Speaker 3: you love about this. And of course there's always the
- 6:21Speaker 3: risk to injury and everything like that, but overall, you
- 6:25Speaker 3: love that these guys are getting that level of competition
- 6:27Speaker 3: so early in the year because they're gonna be more
- 6:30Speaker 3: I think they're gonna be more ready for opening Day.
- 6:32Speaker 3: I mean, the guys who are in Arizona is still
- 6:34Speaker 3: you know, it's still spring training. It's not the same, right,
- 6:36Speaker 3: you're not playing the full game and everything like that.
- 6:38Speaker 3: But guys like Joey Rtiz or Terrang or Andrew Fisher, right,
- 6:41Speaker 3: they're they're getting those you know, more live at bats,
- 6:44Speaker 3: the Tyler Blacks of the world, and obviously Terrang and
- 6:47Speaker 3: Ortiz likely are the only ones to make the opening
- 6:49Speaker 3: day roster, but it can only help you, and especially
- 6:51Speaker 3: for Fisher, who's obviously played in big games, you know,
- 6:54Speaker 3: his college career, and then obviously now with Team Miday
- 6:57Speaker 3: one an opportunity, an opportunity to start some games, opportunity
- 7:01Speaker 3: last night, to be in a game that means so
- 7:03Speaker 3: much and you know, have a big hit in that
- 7:05Speaker 3: game last night. That guy there's a reason he's the
- 7:08Speaker 3: number one third base prospect right now, because that guy
- 7:12Speaker 3: he has some serious potential.
- 7:14Speaker 4: How quickly do you think that he could he could
- 7:15Speaker 4: make it through, right?
- 7:16Speaker 6: I mean obviously that that's a spot where everybody identifies
- 7:20Speaker 6: in the future.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Will be a need.
- 7:22Speaker 6: He was all of the last three years seemingly, especially
- 7:25Speaker 6: when you send out Durban. But being able to see
- 7:28Speaker 6: a first round pick hunter is different, right, Like you
- 7:30Speaker 6: don't I don't know how many people are tuning into
- 7:33Speaker 6: Biloxi Shuckers games on MLB TV. Maybe they will now
- 7:36Speaker 6: that they get the package, but like to be able
- 7:39Speaker 6: to get eyes on a guy like that, I think
- 7:41Speaker 6: it does do some good for their future as well
- 7:44Speaker 6: in the marketing department, because otherwise you don't see a
- 7:47Speaker 6: first round pick for two or three years.
- 7:49Speaker 3: Absolutely, and I think it probably helps the front office
- 7:52Speaker 3: too to see how he performs in that sort of
- 7:54Speaker 3: environment and he played I don't know if it was about,
- 7:56Speaker 3: you know, fifteen twenty games with the timber Ratlers last year.
- 8:00Speaker 3: I would think he'll get to Biloxi. What he might
- 8:02Speaker 3: start in Biloxi, I'm not exactly sure. And he'll I think,
- 8:07Speaker 3: rise pretty quickly. I mean, overall minor leaguers are rising
- 8:10Speaker 3: probably faster than they ever had before, so that plays
- 8:14Speaker 3: into it. But it's so wild because you have just
- 8:17Speaker 3: so much talent in the infield right now. And it's
- 8:20Speaker 3: interesting because Moday is playing a lot of second base,
- 8:24Speaker 3: which is interesting. He's not playing a ton of shortstop,
- 8:26Speaker 3: especially when he was on the field with Cooper Pratt.
- 8:28Speaker 3: Pratt's more the shortstop, but Day's playing second. I think
- 8:31Speaker 3: the one thing, and it's been written about, talked about,
- 8:34Speaker 3: the one thing Miday has to improve on is his defense.
- 8:37Speaker 3: So I do wonder how that all fits going forward. Obviously,
- 8:40Speaker 3: Brock Wilkin is another guy who who is someone to
- 8:44Speaker 3: pay attention to in that left side of the infield.
- 8:46Speaker 3: Painya is another guy. So they just have so much
- 8:48Speaker 3: depth there that I don't know how exactly they're going
- 8:51Speaker 3: to get these guys to the major league level, and
- 8:54Speaker 3: in what order, but I got to think he's a
- 8:56Speaker 3: first round pick. He's clearly showing a lot of potential.
- 8:59Speaker 3: If he rips it up in double A and then
- 9:02Speaker 3: somehow gets to Nashville, it's gonna be tempting for him
- 9:04Speaker 3: to come up.
- 9:05Speaker 5: Talking to Hunter bombguard here, I'm the huddle, Drew billyon
- 9:08Speaker 5: arming with you for another fifty one minutes now that
- 9:11Speaker 5: you're counting, we get to talk baseball with Hunter Hunter.
- 9:15Speaker 5: Another guy to watch and it's kind of my pick
- 9:17Speaker 5: to click this year is Garrett Mitchell, who's been hitting
- 9:19Speaker 5: some balls hard and again like, where is he ticketed?
- 9:24Speaker 5: Or what can he do? Does he need to go
- 9:26Speaker 5: to Nashville to play, to get in the rhythm and
- 9:28Speaker 5: play in every day? Can he plug and play? Is
- 9:31Speaker 5: he the starting center fielder? I know he's one of
- 9:33Speaker 5: your favorites. Where are you on Garrett Mitchell right now?
- 9:36Speaker 3: Yeah? I would like to see him as the everyday
- 9:40Speaker 3: center fielder. I don't know if it happens, because we
- 9:43Speaker 3: all know how much the organization and specifically Pat Murphy
- 9:46Speaker 3: loves Blake Perkins, and so I think Blake Perkins makes
- 9:49Speaker 3: the roster. I think Garrett Mitchell makes the roster, and
- 9:52Speaker 3: I think maybe they split some time, or you know,
- 9:55Speaker 3: maybe Perkins comes in every three days. I gotta think
- 9:59Speaker 3: Mitchell plays more than Perkins to start the year. I
- 10:01Speaker 3: think the organization realized that, look, this guy who you
- 10:04Speaker 3: want to see have success at the major league level
- 10:08Speaker 3: for you know, consistent. They've They've put a lot of time.
- 10:11Speaker 3: They put a lot of obviously medical resources into him
- 10:15Speaker 3: to try to get him to be the healthiest he
- 10:17Speaker 3: can be. They put a lot of time into, Okay,
- 10:19Speaker 3: the best way to slide and the best way to dive,
- 10:21Speaker 3: and how can he play outfield and things like that.
- 10:23Speaker 3: So they put a lot of time into Garrett Mitchell.
- 10:26Speaker 3: And that's because he has a lot of potential. And
- 10:28Speaker 3: like you said, a pick to click, I think it's
- 10:30Speaker 3: a perfect one because what can he do with a
- 10:32Speaker 3: full season healthy We've remains to be seen. I do
- 10:35Speaker 3: think that the organization wants to see him succeed, wants
- 10:39Speaker 3: to see what.
- 10:40Speaker 4: He can do.
- 10:41Speaker 3: As much as they love Blake Perkins. I do think
- 10:43Speaker 3: Garrett Mitchell is I would think he's your starting center field.
- 10:49Speaker 5: Against plays against lefties, right? Is that simple of a place?
- 10:53Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 10:53Speaker 6: But I mean like I mean Perkins and Lockers, Like
- 10:55Speaker 6: our friend Nobblers is saying, say, right there, you know,
- 10:58Speaker 6: Perkins is hitting well and has for a while. Lockridge
- 11:03Speaker 6: obviously they acquired last year. I don't know what the
- 11:06Speaker 6: organization will commitment to him ultimately would be, but like
- 11:09Speaker 6: I do get it, he's a former first round pick.
- 11:11Speaker 6: You want to give him an opportunity, you want to
- 11:13Speaker 6: try to make right on that. I would just wonder
- 11:15Speaker 6: what Blake Perkins has to do if he would end
- 11:17Speaker 6: up having a chance to take that over, because defensively,
- 11:21Speaker 6: he's elite and it seems like he has a little
- 11:24Speaker 6: bit of clutch factor in.
- 11:25Speaker 4: The bat totally.
- 11:26Speaker 3: And I you know last year he struggled some with
- 11:29Speaker 3: the bat for sure, and he'll be the first one
- 11:31Speaker 3: to tell you that. But you know, he talked about
- 11:35Speaker 3: one of his goals this year is to get a
- 11:37Speaker 3: gold Glove, and to do that, you obviously have to
- 11:39Speaker 3: have consistent playing time. You need to be in there
- 11:42Speaker 3: more often than not. So I and not that they're
- 11:45Speaker 3: going to go around Blake Perkins's goals, but I think overall, yeah,
- 11:49Speaker 3: I think it's a platoon situation. I do see overall,
- 11:54Speaker 3: Garrett Mitchell maybe out of the gate getting a little
- 11:56Speaker 3: more time, but as the season goes on, depending on
- 11:59Speaker 3: what Garrett Mitchell does, maybe you do see Perkins more
- 12:01Speaker 3: in there. I think Lockridge is I see a tough
- 12:05Speaker 3: It's tough for like him or but do to get
- 12:07Speaker 3: into the roster right now, just because of how it
- 12:09Speaker 3: breaks down and who you want. And honestly, Bowers is
- 12:12Speaker 3: a guy who's obviously ripping it up in spring training
- 12:15Speaker 3: and can play first base, but he can also play
- 12:18Speaker 3: the outfield, and I think that spells, you know, trouble
- 12:21Speaker 3: for a guy like Lockridge or a guy like Badoo
- 12:23Speaker 3: who is on the fringe of this roster but likely
- 12:26Speaker 3: won't make it, just because you have that flexibility there.
- 12:28Speaker 4: Hunter, are some big news in the division.
- 12:30Speaker 2: A couple of days ago, Hunter Green, it was the
- 12:32Speaker 2: projected A's in Cincinnati, one of the teams everyone thought,
- 12:35Speaker 2: I think would be a contender at least in the mix,
- 12:38Speaker 2: and he's I guess, elbowscoped and he's gonna be out
- 12:40Speaker 2: till July. So that's a significant news in the division
- 12:43Speaker 2: and maybe we'll shake up the way some people think
- 12:46Speaker 2: about you know what one of the Brewers' potential opponents
- 12:48Speaker 2: could be doing this year.
- 12:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the Reds were a playoff team last year.
- 12:53Speaker 3: They you know, clinch really late in the season. Obviously,
- 12:55Speaker 3: I think they're Yeah, they're in Milwaukee when they clinched
- 12:57Speaker 3: last year to.
- 12:58Speaker 4: Get to the postseasons.
- 13:00Speaker 3: So that's a team and obviously under Terry Francona, they're
- 13:02Speaker 3: they're a team to be reckoned with. Not I think
- 13:04Speaker 3: they're probably if you look at tiers in the Nlcentral,
- 13:07Speaker 3: I think I would go CBS and Brewers and then
- 13:09Speaker 3: probably they're like that next tier, you know, one down.
- 13:14Speaker 3: But I also think as well, I you know, they
- 13:17Speaker 3: have they have a lot of talent. I've also wondered
- 13:19Speaker 3: with the Reds and it came kind of to fruition
- 13:21Speaker 3: last year. But it's not like the record was all
- 13:24Speaker 3: that great. I what there maybe six seven games over
- 13:27Speaker 3: five hundred by the end of the season. But I
- 13:29Speaker 3: think it's more so they have so much talent, they
- 13:31Speaker 3: have a good manager. When is it all going to
- 13:33Speaker 3: come together? For me, it's always been I'll believe it
- 13:35Speaker 3: when I see it. With the Reds. You kind of
- 13:37Speaker 3: saw it last year, so you got to give him
- 13:39Speaker 3: some credit there. But that's going to be a significant
- 13:41Speaker 3: loss like you said, he's their ace. Whenever you lose
- 13:44Speaker 3: an ace, it's it's significant. And who can take that role?
- 13:47Speaker 3: You know, I don't know if the Reds necessarily have
- 13:51Speaker 3: the Maybe they do have the guy ready, I'm not
- 13:54Speaker 3: necessarily sure that, say, Brandon Woodruff can take the Freddie
- 13:57Speaker 3: Peralta role with the Brewers.
- 13:58Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, they think Andrew Abit is the guy they're
- 14:00Speaker 4: gonna put in there now.
- 14:02Speaker 6: He gets pitch against the Brewers every week, dude. Yeah,
- 14:05Speaker 6: he'd be a cy young winner.
- 14:08Speaker 3: That's wild how certain guys are like that. Just they
- 14:11Speaker 3: take them mount against the Brewers and for some reason when.
- 14:13Speaker 4: You see them stash out there and then the Red
- 14:15Speaker 4: Jersey problems.
- 14:17Speaker 2: That will soup on for many years, right Drew, I
- 14:19Speaker 2: mean was even smoke the Brewers, smoke them, and then
- 14:22Speaker 2: of course he became a Brewer, and then of course.
- 14:26Speaker 4: Smoking.
- 14:26Speaker 5: It's same with Kan used to crush the Brewers all
- 14:29Speaker 5: the time. Yeah, absolutely, uh hunter, this is you mentioned
- 14:32Speaker 5: it's the dog days, but the pace is about to quicken.
- 14:35Speaker 5: This is about the time when you show up and
- 14:37Speaker 5: those wheeled uh suitcases with the Brewers logo and guys
- 14:40Speaker 5: numbers on them start to show up and the and
- 14:42Speaker 5: then we start to see in the clubhouse there will
- 14:44Speaker 5: be thinking about shipping your car to Milwaukee.
- 14:46Speaker 4: Those of you lucky enough to make the roster. A
- 14:47Speaker 4: lot of guys don't know what to do with.
- 14:49Speaker 5: That, you know, ship their car.
- 14:51Speaker 4: Where are they gonna go? Do I have to have
- 14:53Speaker 4: my buddy drive it up there?
- 14:54Speaker 2: There?
- 14:54Speaker 5: It seems it seems so far away in the horizon,
- 14:58Speaker 5: but it's actually like it's it's the opposite of being
- 15:01Speaker 5: in Vegas when the buildings seem closer than they are.
- 15:03Speaker 5: We're two weeks from opening that two weeks from right now,
- 15:06Speaker 5: two weeks from today is the bus home opener with
- 15:09Speaker 5: the White Sox.
- 15:11Speaker 4: Yeah, so excited.
- 15:12Speaker 3: It's going to be interesting to see what they do
- 15:13Speaker 3: because obviously they're done in Arizona on the twenty second,
- 15:16Speaker 3: but then they have those two exhibition games in Milwaukee
- 15:20Speaker 3: on the what twenty third and twenty fourth, Then they're
- 15:23Speaker 3: off the twenty fifth, and then they're home against the
- 15:26Speaker 3: White Sox and the twenty six to open the season.
- 15:28Speaker 3: So I would guess that the twenty third and twenty
- 15:30Speaker 3: fourth they could still have, you know, a bunch of
- 15:33Speaker 3: guys who are on the fringe like they're yeah, oh yeah, right,
- 15:37Speaker 3: like what do you yeah? Like like you still have
- 15:40Speaker 3: those guys. The roster decisions won't be you know, won't
- 15:42Speaker 3: be due at that time. So there's maybe gonna be
- 15:46Speaker 3: more players going to Milwaukee than in years past because
- 15:50Speaker 3: they have those two more games that don't count, and
- 15:52Speaker 3: they can use those to say, Okay, if there's any
- 15:55Speaker 3: roster decision or pitching decision we want to make, those
- 15:57Speaker 3: guys can come to Milwaukee and then they'll have to
- 15:59Speaker 3: go to Nashville or then they'll have to go wherever
- 16:01Speaker 3: they're going. So that is going to be a little
- 16:03Speaker 3: extra travel built in because you have those two strange
- 16:07Speaker 3: but true exhibition games.
- 16:10Speaker 6: Yeah, so we don't think that we're there's gonna be
- 16:12Speaker 6: one or two days that we might get out of
- 16:14Speaker 6: those days, is what I heard right there as an
- 16:16Speaker 6: inquiring mind somebody that is already circling which of those
- 16:20Speaker 6: days to try to go to for as Harmon Sarren
- 16:22Speaker 6: would like the twelve dollars ticket, we might be able
- 16:25Speaker 6: to get to see some of the young stars, or
- 16:28Speaker 6: is there a possibility I get to see like one
- 16:30Speaker 6: at bad from a yell at or a free lick.
- 16:33Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 16:33Speaker 3: I feel like the young stars will stay in minor
- 16:35Speaker 3: league camp and I'll stay in Arizona. I would think,
- 16:38Speaker 3: like I I I don't, I don't. I mean maybe
- 16:41Speaker 3: some of them would come up and get them experience
- 16:43Speaker 3: at American Family Field.
- 16:45Speaker 1: I mean that would be cool.
- 16:46Speaker 3: You have Miday or Pratt or some of these guys
- 16:48Speaker 3: to play at American Family Field have their first taste.
- 16:52Speaker 3: I'm fascinated to see how they go about that. I
- 16:55Speaker 3: would think that you're right, though, I would think they'll
- 16:58Speaker 3: get in at like you said, that bad or two
- 17:00Speaker 3: from some of those everyday players to keep them, you know,
- 17:03Speaker 3: fine tuned and ready. So I would think that's more
- 17:06Speaker 3: likely than you would see those top prospects coming to Milwaukee,
- 17:09Speaker 3: because I don't know if they'll I would think they'll
- 17:11Speaker 3: take their roster and then maybe.
- 17:13Speaker 4: The fringe guys to play.
- 17:15Speaker 3: But you're also gonna need to field the team those
- 17:17Speaker 3: two days, and you also want to you know, bubble
- 17:21Speaker 3: wrap certain folks at that time too, so you're gonna
- 17:25Speaker 3: have to take a significant amount of players.
- 17:27Speaker 4: So we'll see.
- 17:28Speaker 5: Those games on that Monday and Tuesday six forty normal
- 17:31Speaker 5: starting time for the Monday game and then for ten.
- 17:34Speaker 6: For ten that one is certain that money one right there,
- 17:38Speaker 6: that's the yes, that's a perfect start.
- 17:43Speaker 4: What are you saying that?
- 17:44Speaker 2: Well, I remember about when I remember about the preseason
- 17:47Speaker 2: games that I and that they when they have done this,
- 17:50Speaker 2: and it's been a while now, but I remember they
- 17:52Speaker 2: basically fielded the regular lineup and then with with filter
- 17:57Speaker 2: guys out, I think except for the pictures because I
- 17:59Speaker 2: remember Carlos Lee's first year after the big acquisition, had
- 18:02Speaker 2: a big homer in one of those exhibition games, and
- 18:06Speaker 2: that was a really exciting taste for Brewers fans because
- 18:09Speaker 2: he was the big acquisition that year.
- 18:10Speaker 4: So we'll see that.
- 18:11Speaker 2: That will be interesting to see how they manage things
- 18:13Speaker 2: and another challenge for Pat Murphy.
- 18:15Speaker 4: So it is it's gonna be fun.
- 18:17Speaker 5: Hunter. Thank you for joining us today. Appreciate it as well.

- 19:59Speaker 5: you on this Thursday in the good Land. That hits
- 20:02Speaker 5: you like a two by four between the eyes. We
- 20:03Speaker 5: just talked to Hunter Bombgart. We're two weeks away from
- 20:06Speaker 5: opening days, a lot of ground. It seems like a
- 20:09Speaker 5: long time, but it's really not. It's two weeks so
- 20:12Speaker 5: opening day and I don't know where my seats at.
- 20:14Speaker 5: Is it the longest two weeks of the year, or
- 20:16Speaker 5: is it the longest two weeks of the years. Right
- 20:18Speaker 5: after the last exhibition game for the Packers, the gap
- 20:21Speaker 5: between training camp and the regular.
- 20:24Speaker 4: That's the longest one. And that's the worst police blotter season.
- 20:27Speaker 6: Now, granted that ended up being a good one for
- 20:30Speaker 6: us because it ended up being chefter season when we
- 20:32Speaker 6: got the Micah Parsons trade. This year, generally that is uh,
- 20:36Speaker 6: Matt Leafleur's last chance to go to the lake House, right, Like,
- 20:39Speaker 6: that's a pretty much couple of days.
- 20:41Speaker 4: Enjoy some time off.
- 20:42Speaker 6: Now, Armin's gonna be mad at me if I say that,
- 20:43Speaker 6: because this is this is college basketball season, right, this
- 20:46Speaker 6: is I.
- 20:46Speaker 2: Mean, there's no.
- 20:49Speaker 4: I mean championship, but it is.
- 20:51Speaker 6: But I am lustfully waiting for Brewers Baseball and every
- 20:57Speaker 6: little taste that we've gotten of new Brewers TV. I've
- 20:59Speaker 6: been a fan of. We got b A and Rock
- 21:01Speaker 6: calling the game a couple of weeks ago or last week,
- 21:04Speaker 6: which was phenomenal. Talk about team pison, Vinny Ratino part
- 21:08Speaker 6: of the conversation, which has been good. And you know,
- 21:11Speaker 6: they faked me out and I thought that Sophia Minner
- 21:12Speaker 6: got hit with a baseball, so like that they're right
- 21:14Speaker 6: at the top of their game, and the streaming service
- 21:17Speaker 6: has been pretty solid, so I'm excited. This is a
- 21:20Speaker 6: little bit though, of the hurry up and wait. This
- 21:24Speaker 6: would be the worst time though, for a rate. Would
- 21:27Speaker 6: this be around the Sports Radio Olympics when we all
- 21:29Speaker 6: went down to spring training and we had like the
- 21:31Speaker 6: four radio stations all that same time, But it was
- 21:34Speaker 6: it was later into camp too. I felt like we
- 21:38Speaker 6: were all looking around, like, is there more news? Well,
- 21:40Speaker 6: they've cut most of their guys. I did get the
- 21:42Speaker 6: notification a couple of days ago that we were at
- 21:44Speaker 6: the six year anniversary of all of us renouncing that
- 21:47Speaker 6: we got banished to the to the broom closet and
- 21:53Speaker 6: things changed quickly that year.
- 21:55Speaker 5: That's he's no.
- 21:57Speaker 4: Longer with the there. Oh, I would say this.
- 22:03Speaker 2: I think it's also sneaking up a little bit on us,
- 22:05Speaker 2: and I you know, you get a little more excited
- 22:07Speaker 2: for bring Day just because at least it feels to
- 22:09Speaker 2: me that it's sooner, like a week sooner than it
- 22:11Speaker 2: usually is.
- 22:11Speaker 4: Not at b it is, but okay, so it definitely
- 22:14Speaker 4: feels that way.
- 22:15Speaker 2: When I saw the date, I'm like, really, March twenty
- 22:17Speaker 2: it's March twenty seventh, right, twenty six, twenty sixth, Yeah,
- 22:20Speaker 2: March twenty sixth. I'm like, usually it feels like it
- 22:22Speaker 2: doesn't start till April. So I think that's part of
- 22:24Speaker 2: the reason too. And maybe you talk about well twenty
- 22:27Speaker 2: a couple weeks aways, because it usually feels like it's
- 22:29Speaker 2: about three weeks away right now. But so I'm excited
- 22:32Speaker 2: for that part of it. The fact that we're gonna
- 22:35Speaker 2: have MLB baseball here within the Fortnite is kind of shocking.
- 22:39Speaker 4: To uh, look at you, yeah fortnite.
- 22:42Speaker 2: All right, that's but it is kind of shocking to
- 22:45Speaker 2: actually believe right now, especially when we're supposed to get
- 22:48Speaker 2: Snowmageddon and stuff.
- 22:49Speaker 4: It doesn't feel like spring. So all right, where are.
- 22:52Speaker 5: We on this? We're gonna have to call one of
- 22:53Speaker 5: our weather friends because uh, app like the Apple app
- 22:58Speaker 5: is telling you it could be like twenty five inches,
- 23:00Speaker 5: and everybody else is like, pump the brakes on that
- 23:02Speaker 5: we might get four or five.
- 23:03Speaker 2: I think we should call Brook tomorrow because then you've
- 23:05Speaker 2: seen a lot of the meteorologists and the prominent voice
- 23:08Speaker 2: is going at it and say, you know, you shouldn't
- 23:10Speaker 2: be looking at your Apple Weather app. You should be
- 23:12Speaker 2: And I agree. I mean they're using algorithms that are
- 23:15Speaker 2: sort of it's that whole will it be rain or
- 23:17Speaker 2: will it be snow? And they use an algorithm for Is.
- 23:19Speaker 4: This you being an anti Apple Samsung guy?
- 23:22Speaker 2: It's not about the Samsung Apple thing, it's just in general.
- 23:25Speaker 2: I mean, when you have human it's anti AI. Let's
- 23:28Speaker 2: put it that way, because when you have humans analyzing
- 23:30Speaker 2: the data, it's different than when you have data all
- 23:32Speaker 2: right just just coming up with their own analysis. Because
- 23:34Speaker 2: I can tell you something, right now, we're not getting
- 23:36Speaker 2: thirty three inches of snow. I'm going to guarantee that
- 23:39Speaker 2: right now, we're not getting thirty three inches.
- 23:42Speaker 4: So people that have thrown these.
- 23:43Speaker 2: Numbers out, I mean, it's a little bit, it's a
- 23:45Speaker 2: little bit of just you know, it's a little bit
- 23:48Speaker 2: of edgelarding.
- 23:49Speaker 6: Let's just say you're calling it a fish story. You're
- 23:53Speaker 6: saying that every single time somebody gets their eyes on it, say,
- 23:55Speaker 6: you know what, that's right, we're getting twenty five to
- 23:57Speaker 6: twenty eight inches.
- 23:58Speaker 4: I believe. I believe the app says that.
- 24:01Speaker 2: But I believe that if you really believe that we're
- 24:02Speaker 2: getting that, that's a little rage bait, a little bit.
- 24:05Speaker 2: That's what that's Mamley take. But hey, we got to
- 24:07Speaker 2: be prepared kind of we're going to get something. Obviously,
- 24:10Speaker 2: it's pretty.
- 24:10Speaker 4: Clear of this. Yeah, I like that. I think we should.
- 24:12Speaker 6: We'll tap in and we'll get some answers there. Drew,
- 24:15Speaker 6: can you give us an answer to our friend? This
- 24:16Speaker 6: is Steve on the talking text line that fired one
- 24:19Speaker 6: out us love to what's the question? Good morning, guys
- 24:21Speaker 6: have been pondering this. I know that the Brewers have
- 24:23Speaker 6: Prince Fielder's son in their farm system. Do you have
- 24:26Speaker 6: any update on him? Or is he ever going to
- 24:29Speaker 6: make the big league squad? I think that would just
- 24:30Speaker 6: be awesome. Go Brewers. Now you got to see him
- 24:33Speaker 6: grow up. That probably that probably was a moment where
- 24:35Speaker 6: he said, Wow, Okay, I kind.
- 24:36Speaker 4: Of feel a little bit old. Is he's signing. He's
- 24:39Speaker 4: signing a Brewers contract, big, big time.
- 24:41Speaker 5: That's but again, like Ryan Weathers pitches for the Yankees,
- 24:44Speaker 5: I saw him as a roly poly pair shaped youth.
- 24:46Speaker 4: Pair shaped you.
- 24:47Speaker 5: Yes, I have a pair shaped two year old that
- 24:49Speaker 5: his dad thought was going to play offensive line for
- 24:51Speaker 5: the Tide. Now he's pitching for the Yankees. Misjudge there, Uh,
- 24:55Speaker 5: Jane Fielder. I think he's I think he's like in
- 24:57Speaker 5: the number seventy on the Brewers prosper Yeah, the top
- 25:00Speaker 5: one hundred, not in the in the in all the
- 25:02Speaker 5: baseball in the organization.
- 25:04Speaker 4: So he was an undrafted free agent.
- 25:07Speaker 5: He's hardworking, he's looking for a position that he started
- 25:11Speaker 5: as a second basement now he's been playing mostly left field,
- 25:13Speaker 5: trying to find a home in the field. But he hits,
- 25:16Speaker 5: and well, we see him the big leagues like anybody
- 25:18Speaker 5: else's a long shot. Your last name doesn't punch your ticket, yep.
- 25:21Speaker 6: It then that can get you a hat and a
- 25:25Speaker 6: pair of pants in a jersey, and then it ultimately
- 25:27Speaker 6: is rookie ball. Yeah right, you get a chip and
- 25:29Speaker 6: a chair and you hope that you have a chance.
- 25:31Speaker 6: I think it's it's a great story. It would be
- 25:33Speaker 6: a it would be a phenomenal story if he was
- 25:36Speaker 6: a big leaguer and he made it all the way,
- 25:37Speaker 6: there's incredible. But every single time though that you do
- 25:40Speaker 6: get the Greeny video or now it's a four K
- 25:43Speaker 6: video from somebody of him in a batting cage.
- 25:46Speaker 4: He does swing just like his pops. He does that.
- 25:48Speaker 4: He does have the swing and the stroke just like Prince.
- 25:52Speaker 4: It is pretty wild.
- 25:53Speaker 2: He was in the Arizona the Arizona Complex League called
- 25:58Speaker 2: the rookie level affiliate.
- 25:59Speaker 4: You know, his numbers are pretty good.
- 26:01Speaker 2: I'm looking at him now, eight seventy ops he slugged
- 26:04Speaker 2: and he hit two sixty eight, so not too bad.
- 26:06Speaker 2: But obviously, like you guys said, that's way levels below.
- 26:09Speaker 2: He is a long way to go. He's twenty one
- 26:11Speaker 2: years old. So we'll see everyone to go on.
- 26:13Speaker 5: The drum, will he You know, there's one of those
- 26:15Speaker 5: things where will they bring him north and let him
- 26:17Speaker 5: play in the exhibition game just to get it?
- 26:19Speaker 4: You know, that would be a good one way. Yeah,
- 26:21Speaker 4: that'd be pretty cool. Cool they did. They should market
- 26:24Speaker 4: at first people.
- 26:24Speaker 6: They should definitely tell us that it's happening and let
- 26:26Speaker 6: us know the prince is coming to it right right
- 26:29Speaker 6: when he's an undrafted free agent. Now you hear that
- 26:31Speaker 6: in football, Hey, shout out yosh Nyman. Undrafted free agent
- 26:36Speaker 6: Colin it quits age of thirty, former packer entire seven years,
- 26:40Speaker 6: seven years of getting a check, seven years of playing ball,
- 26:42Speaker 6: thirteen million in career earnings. So the good, good, good,
- 26:46Speaker 6: if you can get in and hopefully works out well
- 26:48Speaker 6: for me.
- 26:48Speaker 4: We're proud of that.
- 26:50Speaker 6: There's not a whole lot of undrafted rookies in baseball,
- 26:52Speaker 6: right like that that happened after they've continually shrunk down
- 26:55Speaker 6: the draft, and has that affected because of how many
- 26:58Speaker 6: minor league teams they ended up cutting.
- 27:00Speaker 5: They ended up cutting those but they'll grab guys out
- 27:02Speaker 5: of independent leagues too, so it's kind of yeah uh
- 27:05Speaker 5: so yeah, the draft iss or so there might be
- 27:07Speaker 5: more undrafted free agent.
- 27:09Speaker 6: That's when I saw it. I was like that, that's
- 27:11Speaker 6: a new deal. I wouldn't have thought you're having much
- 27:13Speaker 6: of a chance. But as long as you continue, like
- 27:15Speaker 6: you said, is continue to develop, give give yourself an opportunity.
- 27:19Speaker 4: But they're gonna grab a lot of guys.
- 27:20Speaker 6: I would assume Dockhounds is another way of continuing to
- 27:23Speaker 6: grow and the independence and stuff.
- 27:24Speaker 4: So hopefully that'd be awesome if he did make it.
- 27:27Speaker 5: Dockhounds is a great like second chance thing for guys
- 27:30Speaker 5: or guys who oh, I came, I got over the
- 27:32Speaker 5: Tommy John and I picked up five miles an hour,
- 27:35Speaker 5: or I've discovered a new grip for my slider and
- 27:38Speaker 5: started to dive and like boom, here we go. Like
- 27:40Speaker 5: there's like a good second chance thing. Yeah, leagues like that.
- 27:43Speaker 6: But that's one of my favorite things about talking with
- 27:45Speaker 6: Wags is when he knows somebody is a tinker away
- 27:49Speaker 6: from being able to get themselves back in there in
- 27:51Speaker 6: the second chance lead.
- 27:52Speaker 5: Well, it's very funny because back in the day when
- 27:54Speaker 5: I was caddying for Bob mcgainn and I was doing
- 27:57Speaker 5: double duty in the summer, I was I would covering
- 28:00Speaker 5: the Mustangs beat for like just a couple of games,
- 28:02Speaker 5: and then I was pulled from that, and then I
- 28:04Speaker 5: was up in Green Bay. I remember asking round, well,
- 28:06Speaker 5: if you guys scout the arena, that'd be nice, young man. No,
- 28:10Speaker 5: we don't have the we don't.
- 28:12Speaker 4: Have the ankling to to scout. He just thought it
- 28:14Speaker 4: was a garbage league.
- 28:15Speaker 5: Like basically, it'd be like asking Matt Arnold if he
- 28:18Speaker 5: was going to go over to wick Field and watch
- 28:20Speaker 5: us the Thursday Night Softball, a classic men's classic league
- 28:23Speaker 5: to see if there's anybody who wanted. No. But then
- 28:25Speaker 5: they started the sign guys out of that, and then
- 28:27Speaker 5: it became kind of like you know, they had it
- 28:29Speaker 5: in there under their domain for a while, right, and
- 28:33Speaker 5: then they started to sign guys and like it was
- 28:36Speaker 5: so funny because at the time here I was like, yeah,

- 29:10Speaker 2: I mean they listened last day. They did everything right
- 29:13Speaker 2: marketing wise. They went purple and teal. And if you
- 29:15Speaker 2: weren't going purple and deal in the nineties, you weren't
- 29:17Speaker 2: doing it right. So basically they went straight nineties with it.
- 29:20Speaker 2: The the logo and the it was cool.
- 29:22Speaker 6: It was fun to go to Badly the Milwaukee Iron

- 30:04Speaker 6: I don't know that the young man in his four
- 30:06Speaker 6: years in the big leagues has had a pop and

- 30:48Speaker 5: Such an old school term, beamed up. That's like the
- 30:52Speaker 5: opposite of that is playing naked with yes without any.
- 30:55Speaker 4: I didn't realize that I still meant the coffee, you know.
- 30:59Speaker 2: I was.
- 31:00Speaker 4: I was glad that was exactly what I thought it was.
- 31:02Speaker 6: I thought there would be an old school tag into
- 31:05Speaker 6: that and some guys in the seventies and eighties the.
- 31:08Speaker 5: Pot of coffee, the amphetamines. Yes, I drank from the
- 31:12Speaker 5: leaded pot. And he is sitting back now.
- 31:14Speaker 6: Granted Dad to do a little role reversal, because Vinnie's
- 31:17Speaker 6: been the guy at the end of the Italian dugout
- 31:19Speaker 6: who's been firing up to an espresso machine every single
- 31:22Speaker 6: time somebody hits a dinger, he cheers them, gives him
- 31:25Speaker 6: the double kiss, and get yourself on going after you
- 31:27Speaker 6: hit a long ball.
- 31:29Speaker 4: A little role reversal. I made it three bombs last night,
- 31:31Speaker 4: I know. He then goes, you know, I'm never had
- 31:33Speaker 4: three bombs and three homers in a game. That was cool.
- 31:36Speaker 5: Yeah, that was kind of fun.
- 31:38Speaker 4: Three homers.
- 31:39Speaker 6: And also to be able to celebrate and give a
- 31:42Speaker 6: little bit of enjoyment to those Italian or to the
- 31:45Speaker 6: American players.
- 31:46Speaker 4: He had a message for the American class. Those Espresso
- 31:49Speaker 4: pods are now on order.
- 31:51Speaker 6: As many as we need, as many as we need,
- 31:53Speaker 6: we'll make it happen, So that was unbelievable.

- 32:13Speaker 6: were going to be having after because they're all down
- 32:15Speaker 6: there still in Houston.
- 32:16Speaker 2: They've been really good at this team itally, do you
- 32:17Speaker 2: think anyone in the country middly cares.
- 32:19Speaker 4: I'm so curious about this.
- 32:21Speaker 2: I'm thinking about this all the time, Like, are they
- 32:23Speaker 2: like actually getting into this, like like, look our flag,
- 32:26Speaker 2: like they're playing, well, we should be cheering for them.
- 32:28Speaker 2: Do you think they're aware? Do you think they care?
- 32:30Speaker 2: I'm so curious to know all these things.
- 32:32Speaker 6: I bet, I bet baseball fans are right kids that
- 32:35Speaker 6: they grew up watching. But I also think it's probably
- 32:37Speaker 6: a lot more Italian American, Right.
- 32:39Speaker 4: That's what it is.
- 32:40Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's the thing about the WBC. That's okay.
- 32:42Speaker 2: I'm just asking. I'm not trying to make any commentary
- 32:45Speaker 2: about it. I'm just asking, thanks.
- 32:47Speaker 4: To just throwing it out there.
- 32:49Speaker 2: So the mountains of sicily watching this team.
- 32:54Speaker 4: I'd like to know them, But.

- 33:23Speaker 6: A lot of Minnesota Viking fans potentially good that there's
- 33:26Speaker 6: or maybe it's just the conversation around it. They don't
- 33:29Speaker 6: have a new quarterback, even though we're already having people
- 33:32Speaker 6: ask how many games of the Viking is gonna win
- 33:34Speaker 6: with Kyler Murray as their starting quarterback? What am I
- 33:37Speaker 6: missing here? Has he already signed? Did they announce something
- 33:40Speaker 6: in overnight that we miss and now it's now they're
- 33:42Speaker 6: looking ahead? Are the Eagles the best fit for Max Crosby?
- 33:45Speaker 6: Everybody just said they're singing Kumbaya?
- 33:47Speaker 5: In Vegas. He's working out at the complex. He's back.
- 33:49Speaker 4: You know, I want to retire Raider. They just ignore

- 35:14Speaker 5: calls and like this text.
- 35:17Speaker 6: Anything that has been important I have had to call
- 35:19Speaker 6: back because I am probably the worst human being answering
- 35:23Speaker 6: the phone other than my mom and dad, and I
- 35:25Speaker 6: definitely miss some of their calls.
- 35:27Speaker 4: Still sure those are the importantes, but the text line
- 35:29Speaker 4: does work. Like our friend Tony and No Creek do
- 35:34Speaker 4: they care in Italy?

- 35:56Speaker 2: We're all watching it. But it's the greatest thing. They're
- 35:59Speaker 2: watching base there more. It's all I'm surprised. I'm impressed,
- 36:02Speaker 2: though Tony didn't do what other six await did make
- 36:05Speaker 2: a market joke, because there's seasons over. I expected Tony
- 36:08Speaker 2: because Tony likes to make the market jokes. So I'm
- 36:10Speaker 2: gonna give full credit to Tony an old creek on
- 36:12Speaker 2: that for showing some you know, some difference there.
- 36:15Speaker 6: You didn't.
- 36:15Speaker 2: You didn't make the market joke. You didn't go over
- 36:17Speaker 2: the trope. I appreciate you, buddy. Yeah and yeah six
- 36:20Speaker 2: oh wait, I know, Marquette.

- 37:19Speaker 6: snow melts from this weekend, we're hoping to get some
- 37:21Speaker 6: people on to calm down the nervousness tomorrow about the
- 37:24Speaker 6: snow this weekend. Those drift seltzers are the best because
- 37:28Speaker 6: you start it, when you start the grill, that's perfect
- 37:31Speaker 6: and then right by the time dinner rolls around, you're
- 37:34Speaker 6: drifting straight into some happiness and all of that that
- 37:37Speaker 6: you definitely cooked perfectly because you have a thermometer in
- 37:39Speaker 6: there and you're not.

- 37:42Speaker 5: hours and stuff like four o'clock hits. Grab me a
- 37:46Speaker 5: drift Seltzer Amen. Yes, you know, and you know it's
- 37:49Speaker 5: not as many calories as my beloved Miller High Life.
- 37:52Speaker 5: It's fantastic, great alternative, great to mix it in.
- 37:55Speaker 6: And also I like the way that they say too,
- 37:56Speaker 6: it's you know, be the life of the party without
- 37:58Speaker 6: the hangover, because it's the most true part of it.
- 38:01Speaker 4: So true, it's so true. You just don't have that
- 38:03Speaker 4: par to deal with the next day.
- 38:05Speaker 5: And a couple of weeks ago, I had a very
- 38:07Speaker 5: u I don't know, a celebratory Friday night, just impromptu yeah,
- 38:10Speaker 5: and uh, Saturday morning, I was reminded of it. Just
- 38:13Speaker 5: a raging hangover and been one of those since I
- 38:15Speaker 5: was in You guys in the shoes you guys are
- 38:18Speaker 5: and when you have a young kid and you go
- 38:19Speaker 5: out and you hit it hard and then they're up
- 38:21Speaker 5: at six in the morning and nothing worse and I
- 38:23Speaker 5: got up at sixty because like, that's the way we're
- 38:25Speaker 5: wired now, should I had? I felt like I had
- 38:27Speaker 5: been fifteen rounds man with bad Bull fifteen like oh.
- 38:32Speaker 6: And nothing then is worse than when you try to
- 38:34Speaker 6: sit up and you feel like your whole head just
- 38:37Speaker 6: like a rattle. The whole day I was just I
- 38:39Speaker 6: was freaking waterhole day.

- 38:49Speaker 4: What do you got?
- 38:49Speaker 6: Well, listen, there's a lot of things that make you
- 38:54Speaker 6: pause and question. I think the number one thing is
- 38:56Speaker 6: thirty inches of snow. Would would be the wake and
- 38:59Speaker 6: bakele call him down. We're not getting thirty inches of snow,
- 39:01Speaker 6: as our friend Arman did say right there.
- 39:04Speaker 5: And get they're talking about twenty inches in the band
- 39:07Speaker 5: like Appleton, Green Bay, Fox Valley.
- 39:09Speaker 4: They'll get some inches. We're gonna get some inches, no
- 39:11Speaker 4: doubt about it. But I mean, listen, it's like a
- 39:13Speaker 4: fish story.
- 39:14Speaker 6: But the waken big story is if you haven't seen it,
- 39:16Speaker 6: this young man posted the video of maybe one of
- 39:20Speaker 6: the greatest performers of our generation.
- 39:23Speaker 2: I'm trying to think who that is. One of the
- 39:25Speaker 2: greatest performers of our generation.
- 39:27Speaker 4: Took center stage at the United Center yesterday. Oh of
- 39:30Speaker 4: course Panda.
- 39:31Speaker 6: Yes, and my man posted the po V video now
- 39:35Speaker 6: that this one is safe for work.
- 39:37Speaker 4: This POV is safe for work.
- 39:39Speaker 6: That's good to know that he is the guy throwing
- 39:42Speaker 6: the bulls to Red Panda.
- 39:44Speaker 2: Yeah, you know you never think about that person, do
- 39:47Speaker 2: you? You think about her export?
- 39:48Speaker 6: First off, beautiful precision man great passes here on the.
- 39:52Speaker 4: Three bowl, four bowl, five bowl.
- 39:56Speaker 6: But Drew, I've always thought it had to have been
- 39:58Speaker 6: a true rift off into happiness moment while you're sitting
- 40:02Speaker 6: there in your living room riding a unicycle or maybe
- 40:05Speaker 6: in your backyard, and said, you know what, I really
- 40:07Speaker 6: should do, flip.
- 40:09Speaker 4: Bowles on my head while I do this be the world, the.
- 40:12Speaker 6: Best in the world, the world and potentially the most
- 40:15Speaker 6: entertaining individual I've ever seen in my entire life. Now,
- 40:18Speaker 6: I do know she misses. I do know there's times
- 40:21Speaker 6: where she will have a slip up. Apparently it broke
- 40:24Speaker 6: a wrist because somebody didn't clean the floor.
- 40:26Speaker 2: That's right, Hey, they robbed her once, remember her thing once,
- 40:31Speaker 2: and the Warriors paid for her new boy.
- 40:32Speaker 4: Yes, Sugar sugr eucycles, She'll let target. She's had to
- 40:35Speaker 4: deal with a lot of adversity.
- 40:36Speaker 6: Now, but she has always risen above everything else. But
- 40:40Speaker 6: it always has felt like to me that at some
- 40:42Speaker 6: point you had to be sitting in there with your
- 40:44Speaker 6: friends with some happy playtime. Using promo codehuddlely g it's

- 40:50Speaker 6: I can flip bowles on my head and ride around
- 40:52Speaker 6: on a unicycle and be the coolest halftime show ever.
- 40:55Speaker 6: Or I'll have my dog run up and down my
- 40:59Speaker 6: leg when I hold it up in the air, and
- 41:01Speaker 6: then I'll flip a ball up to him and he'll
- 41:02Speaker 6: balance it on his nose like the halftime performer. Is
- 41:07Speaker 6: one of the minds that I've always wanted to investigate.
- 41:10Speaker 6: When they donate brains to science, Let's have it be
- 41:13Speaker 6: one of that, because that has got to be one
- 41:15Speaker 6: of the greatest unearthings that this is gonna be a
