- 0:06Speaker 2: Having some fun.
- 0:07Speaker 1: After a great sports day should be a great sports
- 0:10Speaker 1: weekend burst playing the Dodgers all weekend and uplifting victory
- 0:14Speaker 1: last night the game of the season. Hard to say
- 0:16Speaker 1: that there is a better one, Drew and one that
- 0:18Speaker 1: they desperately needed. Man, Like, I think in the out
- 0:21Speaker 1: of the depths of despair, going to lose four straight
- 0:25Speaker 1: games out West and feeling like this could be the
- 0:28Speaker 1: down swell of your season instead of all of a sudden,
- 0:30Speaker 1: you pick up a game in the standings.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Yeah, in about what thirty six hours, they went from
- 0:35Speaker 2: their worst loss of the year to the best win
- 0:38Speaker 2: to the best win.
- 0:39Speaker 3: And I fully believe that that win could have came
- 0:42Speaker 3: against twenty eight other teams and it wouldn't have felt
- 0:44Speaker 3: nearly as good as the one last night. Did you
- 0:47Speaker 3: put together three runs in the top of the ninth
- 0:49Speaker 3: inning when it felt like you're absolutely dead? They bring
- 0:51Speaker 3: in mister Trumpets himself and Edwin Diaz. He blows his
- 0:56Speaker 3: fourth save, gives up three runs. The guy that they
- 1:00Speaker 3: bring in after Vacilla who's been nasty. You end up
- 1:03Speaker 3: getting a couple of hits off with lefties, and some
- 1:07Speaker 3: of the guys that you desperately need to get going
- 1:09Speaker 3: again were a part of it, like Garrett Mitchell. Again
- 1:13Speaker 3: rightfully so, people have said, Christian Yelich, what the heck
- 1:17Speaker 3: are we doing with the bat? Seems like people are
- 1:20Speaker 3: starting to come around to say, William Contreras.
- 1:22Speaker 2: What the heck are we doing with the bats? Are
- 1:24Speaker 2: they kidding me?
- 1:25Speaker 3: Garrett Mitchell over the last almost month has had the
- 1:29Speaker 3: worst month of the season. Nice to be able to
- 1:31Speaker 3: see him get a hit with runners in scoring position.
- 1:33Speaker 3: They go three for twenty eight in the series with
- 1:36Speaker 3: the Padres and then string together four hits on five
- 1:40Speaker 3: singles in three runs in the ninth inning. Small market
- 1:43Speaker 3: rally drew against the big market club in the ninth inning.
- 1:46Speaker 3: That's how you're gonna have to win playoff games. And
- 1:47Speaker 3: nice to be able to see him be able to
- 1:48Speaker 3: do it against that bullpen last night, just so badly needed,
- 1:51Speaker 3: and that offense it looked bleak, and coming up with
- 1:54Speaker 3: that rally at that time, in that situation, in that place,
- 1:57Speaker 3: when the Cubs had lost already and you want to
- 1:59Speaker 3: get a game back, I mean, wow, what a huge,
- 2:02Speaker 3: huge moment.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Struggling Drowing pitched a solid game against a good lineup,
- 2:08Speaker 1: and it was that was good encouraging.
- 2:10Speaker 2: You take that any time from DROW Show. Yeah, and
- 2:13Speaker 2: d show? Is that his name?
- 2:15Speaker 3: I've now heard you drop that twice. Are you trying
- 2:19Speaker 3: to name him that? Or mcfetch happen Army trying to
- 2:21Speaker 3: make it a thing? See the DROW Show, you know,
- 2:23Speaker 3: because it dro drowing?
- 2:26Speaker 2: Oh, thanks for explaining it. I didn't.
- 2:27Speaker 3: I didn't realize that that was yeah the Drow Did
- 2:30Speaker 3: you realize that that prime?
- 2:31Speaker 1: I didn't realize that Holy not quite a literation, but
- 2:34Speaker 1: it doesn't rhyme.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, dang well.
- 2:38Speaker 3: I was also trying to think of I might wait
- 2:40Speaker 3: for Dolph, but I was also trying to think of
- 2:41Speaker 3: something for Zach Bacabol now that he's EBB, you know,
- 2:45Speaker 3: call him home grown or something like that. He likes
- 2:48Speaker 3: Boch a little bit better Box. I was going for
- 2:50Speaker 3: the Zach Brown thing, but z Box actually pretty good?
- 2:53Speaker 3: Pretty like that now? Anybody wondering? Was anybody asking online?
- 2:58Speaker 3: I guess we were in knee deep and packers to
- 3:00Speaker 3: really know. Were people mad that they yanked drown four
- 3:03Speaker 3: sends a tella at that moment, because you're right, he.
- 3:05Speaker 2: Is struggling a little bit.
- 3:07Speaker 3: I still think he's a good arm and still an
- 3:08Speaker 3: army he ultimately are gonna want.
- 3:11Speaker 2: But yeah, like a fire to put out.
- 3:14Speaker 3: They were.
- 3:14Speaker 2: It was walk one.
- 3:15Speaker 1: It's like the results though, I mean right, I mean,
- 3:17Speaker 1: my boy, Dan Needles was firing him up and he.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Was so mad. Oh my goodness, I saw Needles.
- 3:22Speaker 3: I'd better see anybody, but sends in telling that includes Scott,
- 3:25Speaker 3: Carl Scott, He said anybody.
- 3:31Speaker 2: He said, Oh, so that was funny to see him
- 3:33Speaker 2: fired up. That was funny, yeah, because.
- 3:35Speaker 3: It wasn't like Drowden was in a bunch of trouble.
- 3:37Speaker 3: He walked pat his But I mean it was just
- 3:39Speaker 3: Framan is still going to be coming up. They they
- 3:41Speaker 3: swing Tommy Edmond around to the other side, but that
- 3:44Speaker 3: lineup just keeps coming at you. You get you got
- 3:46Speaker 3: a guy that makes sixty million dollars this year coming
- 3:51Speaker 3: off the hitting seventh and Mookie Betts a surefire Hall
- 3:55Speaker 3: of Famer pinch hitting because he's a sub six hundred
- 3:57Speaker 3: or seven hundred ops guy. Like the Rogers being able
- 4:00Speaker 3: to have their some of their best players have some
- 4:03Speaker 3: of their career worst years and still be enough for that,
- 4:07Speaker 3: uh to be the number one seed. Just it's it's incredible,
- 4:10Speaker 3: what kind of yeah roster they have, dude. It is
- 4:12Speaker 3: just an incredible murderers row and the four months he
- 4:15Speaker 3: hit it into a four Runnington beach, Yeah, exactly on
- 4:19Speaker 3: top of the San Gabriel Mountains. I did see the stats,
- 4:22Speaker 3: like Sensintela had good career stats against him, so I
- 4:25Speaker 3: wonder if that was the impetus of the change as
- 4:28Speaker 3: well and going to him. But the matchup in theory process,
- 4:32Speaker 3: you know, I think he bet like one twenty lifetime
- 4:34Speaker 3: off him or something, so I think that was part
- 4:35Speaker 3: of the idea.
- 4:36Speaker 2: But yeah, and uh oh you can't take it for granted.
- 4:39Speaker 1: We said Dale Hall's like the hidden hero of the
- 4:42Speaker 1: game because he pitched two scoreless innings to keep the
- 4:44Speaker 1: burs you know, and give him a chance. Mcguil comes
- 4:47Speaker 1: in and he's you know, been pretty nails and that's
- 4:49Speaker 1: a pretty high leverage situation right there. Massive spot, dude, Mason,
- 4:53Speaker 1: the Dodgers with a one or lead in that against
- 4:54Speaker 1: that crowd.
- 4:55Speaker 2: So a great night all around for the brust time
- 4:57Speaker 2: for a little Who's Hot Who's not? Billy Brought to
- 4:59Speaker 2: us by Donovan.
- 4:59Speaker 1: Joey Urginson Heating and Cooling locally owned your experts in
- 5:05Speaker 1: HVAC for forty years. Check him out Donovan Jorgenson dot com.
- 5:08Speaker 1: Who do we got Who's hot?
- 5:09Speaker 2: Who's not?
- 5:10Speaker 3: Well? Eric Carroll's hot because I just realized that he
- 5:13Speaker 3: was the all time leader in home runs in Dodger
- 5:15Speaker 3: Stadium before Max Mounsey beat him last night with the
- 5:18Speaker 3: hot one and thirty first home run. I did not
- 5:20Speaker 3: unfamiliar with Eric Carross his full game at that point.
- 5:22Speaker 3: I just knew that big old head and the young,
- 5:24Speaker 3: the strapping land that he was a massive human being.
- 5:27Speaker 2: But that was a trick. I remember that.
- 5:29Speaker 3: It was like I think Dan Patrick maybe they were
- 5:31Speaker 3: talking about it a while ago, like who was the
- 5:33Speaker 3: leading you know, Homer and Dodgers. No one could answer that,
- 5:35Speaker 3: like that was one that everyone said, Piazza or somebody
- 5:38Speaker 3: like that. Maybe Miguel. You know, I could have fired
- 5:41Speaker 3: out sixty different names. I don't know that I would
- 5:42Speaker 3: have landed on Eric Carross. Good for him, good call.
- 5:45Speaker 3: You remember the old Brooklyn Dodger guys, you know, maybe
- 5:48Speaker 3: du Duke Snyder and those guys.
- 5:49Speaker 2: But that was that was a tough one.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know that would have fired Duke Snyder up,
- 5:54Speaker 3: but I appreciate you giving me that credit, armin A.
- 5:56Speaker 3: But Max Munsey's one hundred and thirty first home runs
- 5:58Speaker 3: at Chavez Ravine last night that put the Dodgers up
- 6:01Speaker 3: four to makes him the all time leading home run
- 6:04Speaker 3: hitter in the third oldest stadium in baseball as well.
- 6:07Speaker 3: So that's something to be to be celebrated. But luckily
- 6:12Speaker 3: we get to see it and celebrated for Dodgers fans
- 6:14Speaker 3: in a fat l. As the Brewers get to win,
- 6:16Speaker 3: we got to celebrate whenever the Cubs catching Now they
- 6:18Speaker 3: are not necessarily not hot, but they lose. Yesterday, Cavale
- 6:24Speaker 3: for the Nationals six and a third, no hit balls,
- 6:28Speaker 3: go eight innings, shut them down, strikes out ten Cubs
- 6:31Speaker 3: in the Nationals shut out Chicago's seven to nothing, a
- 6:34Speaker 3: couple of wild pitching performances. Yesterday, the Tigers shut out
- 6:39Speaker 3: the Cleveland Guardians, drew and don't strike out a hitter
- 6:44Speaker 3: in the game.
- 6:44Speaker 2: That is stunning.
- 6:46Speaker 3: They've now got six shutouts this month, fourteen on the year,
- 6:53Speaker 3: second most in all of baseball. But maybe the best
- 6:56Speaker 3: day of the start of the day came from all
- 7:00Speaker 3: All Star Pirates pitcher Braxton Ashcraft, no non starter Paul Skeins,
- 7:06Speaker 3: who was seen on a beautiful Miami beach hanging out
- 7:10Speaker 3: apparently maybe a little bit too much around the midsection area.
- 7:14Speaker 3: Braxton Ashcraft nine innings, three hits, one run. It was
- 7:18Speaker 3: a solo shot by Owen Casey in the ninth inning
- 7:21Speaker 3: in a thirteen to nothing game. He walked one, struck
- 7:25Speaker 3: out ten faced one over the minimum on just eighty
- 7:30Speaker 3: five pitches.
- 7:30Speaker 2: That's wild, just just wadding.
- 7:33Speaker 3: That is a stunning efficient as a maddox on steroids.
- 7:36Speaker 3: Eighty five pitches, k ten and go a complete game
- 7:39Speaker 3: on the road, especially for a guy that I'll go
- 7:41Speaker 3: get you at at racketball, you know, and and the
- 7:44Speaker 3: croquet the next week, you know, Braxton Ashcraft, guy that
- 7:48Speaker 3: doing your taxes and stuff like that.
- 7:50Speaker 2: Yeah, he is going to tell you about the investment.
- 7:53Speaker 3: Should be looking at risks in front of a rockous
- 7:57Speaker 3: crowd of eighty two and twenty three a low deep
- 8:02Speaker 3: oat park.
- 8:02Speaker 1: I mean, and uh yeah, and you alluded to it,
- 8:06Speaker 1: so we have to touch on it.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Paul Skans getting fat. Shame.
- 8:10Speaker 1: He's walking on the beach with Livy Dunn, and that's
- 8:13Speaker 1: that was impressive.
- 8:13Speaker 3: The impressive part. People were talking about his body more.
- 8:16Speaker 2: I know, correct, Yeah, I don't know. That wasn't exactly where.
- 8:21Speaker 1: She just got off the set of Baywatch and looks
- 8:23Speaker 1: like she hasn't had a carbon about three years.
- 8:26Speaker 2: It's usually like, I don't know how she's drinking all
- 8:27Speaker 2: the miller lite. I know, but we remained. I looked
- 8:30Speaker 2: like that and drink fans.
- 8:32Speaker 1: But skin's like and there is okay, So I do
- 8:35Speaker 1: remember again, I'm old enough to remember a picture of
- 8:38Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers on a beach with his career and then
- 8:41Speaker 1: he got a little bit more dedicated to sitting street
- 8:43Speaker 1: and he kind of like he took that one personal.
- 8:46Speaker 3: He didn't look great, trimmed it up a little bit. Yeah,
- 8:48Speaker 3: but the pictures are different.
- 8:49Speaker 2: They are they talk about Pat Mahomes's body.
- 8:52Speaker 1: I mean, Bartolo Cologne was an effective big league pictures.
- 8:56Speaker 2: I was gonna say he wasn't.
- 8:57Speaker 3: The model of the pictures are tracking fitness test.
- 9:00Speaker 2: Not many of them are.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Jack Sures is pretty well put together. There's some, but
- 9:04Speaker 1: not many.
- 9:05Speaker 2: Like even Verlander, I think has got a little bit
- 9:07Speaker 2: of a dad but done a little bit. He's had
- 9:09Speaker 2: the size he was when he now true, I thought
- 9:12Speaker 2: he stopped for chocolate cake when he stopped drinking. That
- 9:16Speaker 2: was a big part of me. I mean that.
- 9:18Speaker 3: Was in a box of cap and crun.
- 9:22Speaker 2: I mean, David Wells famously was there. It's a boomer.
- 9:24Speaker 3: I mean, so you can be You don't have to
- 9:26Speaker 3: have a perfect body to be a great baseball No.
- 9:29Speaker 1: In fact, it's all about being lucy and limber and
- 9:32Speaker 1: getting extension and being you know, having good mobility.
- 9:36Speaker 2: It's not in flexibility.
- 9:38Speaker 1: It's not really about the raw strength and being but
- 9:41Speaker 1: skins like it looks better than most dudes and looks
- 9:44Speaker 1: you know, it's for starting pictures.
- 9:46Speaker 2: He's okay, but he's not pitching well.
- 9:48Speaker 1: He's lost velocity and people are gonna jump on people
- 9:51Speaker 1: they can just look.
- 9:51Speaker 3: And he's with one of the hottest women. That's always
- 9:54Speaker 3: part of this and that's just part of it.
- 9:57Speaker 1: But that was something though to watch that and culturally
- 10:00Speaker 1: does see people shame him for that.
- 10:02Speaker 2: I didn't have that.
- 10:03Speaker 3: I'm really really glad I was on the internet for
- 10:05Speaker 3: it though. I'm really glad I didn't miss it. I
- 10:09Speaker 3: think my favorite part of the AI generated like quadruple
- 10:15Speaker 3: the only Yeah, those are all funny memes. We're just
- 10:17Speaker 3: rolling down. He's just so good. The only annoying is
- 10:21Speaker 3: for me is it seems to be this low hanging
- 10:23Speaker 3: fruit for sports fans where it's like, you know.
- 10:26Speaker 2: Guy, what's the guy doing on the beach? You should
- 10:28Speaker 2: be watching film?
- 10:29Speaker 3: Like it's like if you have a bad performance, you
- 10:31Speaker 3: can't live a normal life. Like, you know, people always
- 10:33Speaker 3: won't do that about guys like that aren't playing well
- 10:36Speaker 3: and they are doing something recreational or fun and people
- 10:39Speaker 3: get upset about it, like the headline, and you.
- 10:42Speaker 2: Know, it is what it is. It's natural.
- 10:43Speaker 3: But the headline was Skens hits the beach. The day
- 10:47Speaker 3: after's velocity dips like like he's gotta stay inside and cry.
- 10:51Speaker 2: All day exactly. I just don't.
- 10:53Speaker 3: I never ascribed to that as much. It's like guy
- 10:56Speaker 3: enjoying lunch day after he loses. Well, okay, what how
- 11:00Speaker 3: dare you watching film? You should be I think it's
- 11:02Speaker 3: low hanging fruit. It's akin to me to like blaming
- 11:05Speaker 3: trainers for injuries or blaming medical's death, but it's what
- 11:08Speaker 3: we do in sports.
- 11:09Speaker 2: That's what we do. We make I do.
- 11:11Speaker 3: Uh. I would wonder as you just see more and
- 11:16Speaker 3: more people trying to take shots and enjoy the enjoy
- 11:19Speaker 3: the victories of it. How long does he play? Do
- 11:23Speaker 3: they do? They shut him down? Like the velocity drop
- 11:26Speaker 3: is a serious thing for them, But I would wonder
- 11:28Speaker 3: if they would be uh poised to want to push
- 11:32Speaker 3: him to the end.
- 11:33Speaker 2: Of the Year's no injury, you know, but because I.
- 11:38Speaker 3: Mean they were, they had winding their sales around the deadline.
- 11:41Speaker 3: They bought they went and grabbed Luke Weaver, the hottest
- 11:44Speaker 3: name on the market for a closer. There's six games
- 11:47Speaker 3: out of a wild card and they have five teams
- 11:50Speaker 3: to jump. That's a tough scene at this point with
- 11:55Speaker 3: what forty games left, especially if Skins isn't Skins right,
- 11:57Speaker 3: Like they come him to be otherworldly and he he's not.
- 12:00Speaker 2: This is people are reverse engineering.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Did he did he waste his bullets pitching in the
- 12:04Speaker 1: World Baseball Classic, you know, high intensity innings against Mexico
- 12:09Speaker 1: and the Dominican It takes like four innings against each team,
- 12:11Speaker 1: Like he was one of.
- 12:12Speaker 2: The only guys that start. Corbyn Carrol, you threw his
- 12:15Speaker 2: name in there. Did you know Corbyn Carroll is Dyton
- 12:17Speaker 2: miss him America? I really know that. Surprised because he's
- 12:21Speaker 2: a good looking dude, lives in Scottsdale.
- 12:24Speaker 3: All right. I probably got a good shot, got a
- 12:26Speaker 3: good chance to be net in something. But they posted
- 12:29Speaker 3: a phenomenal video of her singing the national anthem and
- 12:33Speaker 3: surprising him at the Diamondbacks game.
- 12:35Speaker 2: He's like, wait a second, what's she doing out there?
- 12:37Speaker 2: Wait a second? She put his hair behind his ears,
- 12:39Speaker 2: like justin Herbert and Masson beer.
- 12:41Speaker 3: There was no there was no kissy kissy booboo going
- 12:44Speaker 3: on and home play through because again, Corbyn Carroll is
- 12:47Speaker 3: an upstanding member of society. Now we're not got frat
- 12:50Speaker 3: nines like that. We'll save that for the batting cage.
- 12:52Speaker 3: You know who else, Emma broils by the way, for
- 12:56Speaker 3: your Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin.
- 12:57Speaker 2: That's what I wanted to say. Way to go, guys.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Beat Missouri yesterday and they're one game away for making
- 13:04Speaker 3: it the Wisconsin Williamsport. Ever, and I'm sorry, I told
- 13:07Speaker 3: Mike Heller yesterday was back listun package radio Network. Sorry
- 13:12Speaker 3: they beat your record, because his team was famously two
- 13:14Speaker 3: games away from that. Yeah, so I said, they passed
- 13:18Speaker 3: you guys up well, and I'll make sure to dunk
- 13:20Speaker 3: on them that way. I'm gonna be uh. I got
- 13:22Speaker 3: the appearance thanks to a couple of cancelations to be
- 13:24Speaker 3: on the I I Love Monday's podcast later on today,
- 13:27Speaker 3: So I'll make.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Sure to twist that knife a little bit.
- 13:30Speaker 1: If he's like gonna be if the Bay loses, if
- 13:32Speaker 1: he's gonna be seventy two Dolphins and cracking champagne, Mikey
- 13:36Speaker 1: Winebar is gonna go break into the I'm sure they
- 13:38Speaker 1: got some votes sitting around there celebrate with the boys.
- 13:45Speaker 2: Got to be able to toast to it.
- 13:47Speaker 3: But also, if there's gonna be a year that a
- 13:50Speaker 3: Wisconsin team finally makes it to williams Port, it should
- 13:53Speaker 3: be the year that the Brewers are making it to Williamsport.
- 13:56Speaker 3: First Sunday they played the night game against the Braves
- 13:59Speaker 3: Thearren Williamsports.
- 14:00Speaker 2: We got to get somebody there. I think most peoplen't
- 14:01Speaker 2: realize they're doing that. It's a good one. Who's not
- 14:03Speaker 2: Who's not?
- 14:03Speaker 1: Donovan Jorgans dot Com Donovan Jordanson Heating and Cooling best
- 14:06Speaker 1: in the business. Check them out for all your HVACT
- 14:08Speaker 1: needs the Brewers. If you're into the poff, if you
- 14:11Speaker 1: go to Fangrafts, come on to poff.
- 14:13Speaker 2: Are you ready for this? Oh, you're gonna make me pay?
- 14:15Speaker 2: As they said it.
- 14:15Speaker 1: First in first place, seventy five and forty seven, by
- 14:18Speaker 1: the way, a six to fifteen winning percentage. By the way,
- 14:22Speaker 1: did the what the Rays do? Are the Brews best
- 14:24Speaker 1: record in baseball? And let me I think the Rays
- 14:26Speaker 1: were off yesterday. Rays are six seventeen. So the Rays
- 14:28Speaker 1: are seventy four and forty six. They get the Orioles
- 14:31Speaker 1: who are.
- 14:31Speaker 2: So again the Bruers are seventy five and forty seven.
- 14:35Speaker 3: Because that includes Wildcord should be super high.
- 14:38Speaker 2: The Brewers poff.
- 14:39Speaker 1: By the way, the projected wins for the Brewers ninety
- 14:42Speaker 1: five point nine, so basically ninety six wins, which will
- 14:46Speaker 1: be a game back from last year's finish. So they've
- 14:49Speaker 1: got them going ninety six and uh one to sixty six.
- 14:56Speaker 1: There are odds to win the division seventy seve seven
- 15:00Speaker 1: point eight Cubs right twenty two point two. Okay, to
- 15:05Speaker 1: clinch a bye and finish with one of the first
- 15:07Speaker 1: two top two records in the league fifty nine point
- 15:10Speaker 1: one percent.
- 15:11Speaker 2: That's a little better than I thought.
- 15:13Speaker 1: Finishing the wild card twenty two point one, which will
- 15:16Speaker 1: be a massive step down a wild cord a better. Yeah,
- 15:19Speaker 1: can make the playoffs ninety nine point nine percent.
- 15:22Speaker 3: Oh, I thought it'd be the ninety sevens or ninety eighth,
- 15:25Speaker 3: but ninety nine point nine.
- 15:26Speaker 2: Ninety nine point nine.
- 15:28Speaker 1: And to win the World Series all the Tostitos according
- 15:31Speaker 1: to Fangrafts nine point five percent, which is better than
- 15:36Speaker 1: everybody else except for Dodger, the Rays at nine point
- 15:40Speaker 1: nine and the Dodge Dodgers at twenty three point six.
- 15:44Speaker 3: Yeah, because the Rays don't have to go through a Dodgers, right,
- 15:46Speaker 3: That's the thing over on the other side, there's not
- 15:48Speaker 3: that team. There's not that behemoth, especially if the Yankees
- 15:51Speaker 3: aren't going to get judged back. And that's maybe the
- 15:53Speaker 3: most underdiscussed topic in all sports.
- 15:56Speaker 2: I want to judge in three time.
- 15:59Speaker 3: MVP is still m a and not sure if he's
- 16:02Speaker 3: ever going to be able to come back. Speaking of
- 16:03Speaker 3: the World Baseball Classic, but uh, those are that's winding
- 16:07Speaker 3: the sales because there has been all down. It has
- 16:09Speaker 3: been very, very sad. It feels very very lonely here, Drew,
- 16:12Speaker 3: and you can't get guys in with runners in scoring position,
- 16:15Speaker 3: and you're getting swept by the Padres, and the Cubs
- 16:17Speaker 3: are increasing decreasing the lead. They're shrinking it down daily.
- 16:21Speaker 3: Seventy to win the division, almost ten percent chance to
- 16:25Speaker 3: win the whole thing.
- 16:25Speaker 1: I'll take that, everybody on the internet. When Frabel through
- 16:28Speaker 1: the flag last night, the captions, oh my god, he
- 16:31Speaker 1: tossed that like you tossed his wedding ring.
- 16:33Speaker 2: When Diana Rassini comes around, Oh my, like you.
- 16:37Speaker 3: Tossed that room key off at the bungalow.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Mike Vrable to his phone when his wife asks him
- 16:42Speaker 1: why Dominos is texting him at three am.
- 16:44Speaker 2: In the morning. That phone.
- 16:48Speaker 1: The Internet remains undefeated when the New York Post texts you,
- 16:51Speaker 1: we got another drop coming. When we come back, we
- 16:55Speaker 1: will have our current electric suit here today. Not a
- 16:58Speaker 1: tough one. This one's gonna be pretty obvious. But we're
- 17:01Speaker 1: gonna name him anyway. He deserves it. You better believe it.
- 17:03Speaker 1: You're gonna name him anyway. Our current electric superhero is next.
- 17:06Speaker 1: You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. All right,
- 17:22Speaker 1: it's time for us to name our current electric superhero
- 17:25Speaker 1: of the day, and this one was sealed by halftime
- 17:28Speaker 1: of the Packers game last night.
- 17:31Speaker 3: Here it is placement made kick end over end to
- 17:34Speaker 3: the uprights.
- 17:35Speaker 2: And it is O man I mean.
- 17:38Speaker 3: With Buddy despair center cut. Wow, Trey Smack smacks it
- 17:44Speaker 3: through the uprights from deep.
- 17:47Speaker 1: The young man who's had a rough go of it
- 17:49Speaker 1: in camp with Bobby Demofsky charting his missus and everybody
- 17:53Speaker 1: te tweeting it in triplicate, made four field goals last night.
- 17:59Speaker 1: Three of them counted. Two of them were fifty eight
- 18:01Speaker 1: yard bombs like that one. Trace Mack is our current
- 18:04Speaker 1: electric superhero the day, brought to us by Current Call.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Current dot Com is the website. It couldn't have been
- 18:09Speaker 1: anybody else. Like a lightning bolt, like that Current Electric logo.
- 18:13Speaker 1: He strikes with that right foot, now a couple of
- 18:15Speaker 1: parts of it. John Coon on the TV.
- 18:17Speaker 3: Broadcast accurately said, I may have declined the penalty on
- 18:22Speaker 3: the first one. There's the chance I may have declined
- 18:24Speaker 3: the penalty. Take the three points, give him the credit
- 18:27Speaker 3: for the fifty eight yarder, but then to be able
- 18:29Speaker 3: to get another opportunity to kick one even better.
- 18:32Speaker 2: You can't.
- 18:32Speaker 3: You can't manufacture those opportunities. But for him to be
- 18:37Speaker 3: able to have the pressure moment, that was the end
- 18:40Speaker 3: of the half. Kyle McCord, listen, every batman, there's a
- 18:44Speaker 3: Robin Kyle McCord, a little bit of a superhero as
- 18:47Speaker 3: well being able to lead that drive.
- 18:48Speaker 2: Jacob Monk smartly.
- 18:50Speaker 3: Not grabbing the ball, letting the official have it after
- 18:52Speaker 3: Will Shepard caught it Drew. They executed that to the
- 18:55Speaker 3: absolute perfect decimal point. I think twelve seconds is the
- 18:59Speaker 3: f salute limit that you could run that play.
- 19:02Speaker 2: They ran it perfectly.
- 19:03Speaker 3: Trace mac knocked it through and Matt Lafleur went full
- 19:08Speaker 3: Allen iverson defending this cat earlier this week. It's right, guys,
- 19:12Speaker 3: we're talking about prep practice. I understand I was supposed
- 19:14Speaker 3: to be there and lead by example. Who cares if
- 19:17Speaker 3: he makes it. There's thirty five hundred people standing here,
- 19:20Speaker 3: and some of them are standing behind a chain link fence.
- 19:23Speaker 2: That is not NFL football.
- 19:25Speaker 3: This one was in front of However, many people paid
- 19:28Speaker 3: to see it at Akercher Stadium. They stayed for a
- 19:30Speaker 3: majority of the time. But that's a tough stadium to kick.
- 19:33Speaker 3: Notoriously one of the more difficult spots to kick field goals,
- 19:37Speaker 3: and he booted two big time ones through all of them,
- 19:40Speaker 3: right down the middle.
- 19:41Speaker 2: That was a heck of a night for trace Mack.
- 19:43Speaker 2: And the other thing I.
- 19:44Speaker 3: Liked about it is we've spent so much time on
- 19:46Speaker 3: the nervousness part of trace Mack and what we're anxious
- 19:49Speaker 3: about with him, obviously the inconsistency in practice, But last night,
- 19:53Speaker 3: besides just making the kicks, was an example of why
- 19:56Speaker 3: you're excited about him.
- 19:57Speaker 2: Why they went and grabbed a guy, why you're hoping he.
- 19:59Speaker 3: Can be and send it at that position, is his
- 20:02Speaker 3: just ability to boom those deep ones. And you know,
- 20:05Speaker 3: Aubrey and Dallas, I'm sorry, you're right, Billy has changed
- 20:07Speaker 3: the game.
- 20:08Speaker 2: You talked about. This has changed the game.
- 20:09Speaker 3: With kickers, Like everybody wants to know if they can
- 20:12Speaker 3: get a weapon. Now that's good from sixty plus consistently
- 20:15Speaker 3: in a time when that was unheard of in this league.
- 20:18Speaker 3: And Aubrey Wayne said it from fifty eight. He was
- 20:22Speaker 3: good from sixty plus last night. So that's the thing
- 20:24Speaker 3: that excites you about what he can do is his
- 20:26Speaker 3: potential to be, you know, special athlete, at that position.
- 20:31Speaker 3: He I do, I do struggle with the word transcendent
- 20:35Speaker 3: and kickers. Just that one together is a tough one
- 20:39Speaker 3: for me. But Mason Crosby is the all time leading
- 20:42Speaker 3: scorer for the for the team and a number that
- 20:45Speaker 3: probably will never be beaten, right like that, That's gonna
- 20:48Speaker 3: be a tough number to beat for Mason Crosby. And
- 20:51Speaker 3: he started as a rookie who was kicking like seventy
- 20:54Speaker 3: five percent.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Yeah, that's also and they.
- 20:57Speaker 3: Had plenty of time to be able to trust him
- 20:59Speaker 3: because the game like three years doing that before.
- 21:02Speaker 2: Ultimately he made big kicks in championship.
- 21:04Speaker 3: Games for him. You got to get to the playoffs
- 21:06Speaker 3: for Trace Mack to be able to prove that. We
- 21:08Speaker 3: got to get to the regular season for him to
- 21:09Speaker 3: make more kicks that count. But Drew, it sounds like
- 21:13Speaker 3: he's about the right stuff and the attitude after the game.
- 21:16Speaker 3: I'm excited for people to know and hear it because
- 21:19Speaker 3: it seemed like he wasn't going to get too high
- 21:21Speaker 3: and wasn't going to get too low. Studying at the
- 21:22Speaker 3: Jake Bauers School of Temperament. We heard it last night
- 21:25Speaker 3: our locker room reports brought.
- 21:26Speaker 1: To us by Potootomy sports Book, the official sports book
- 21:29Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. And this is this is mister
- 21:32Speaker 1: smack from last evening, Kerry, pretty good night.
- 21:37Speaker 2: I hit the ball.
- 21:38Speaker 4: Well, did anybody kind of warn you in advance how
- 21:42Speaker 4: difficult it is to kick in Pittsburgh?
- 21:47Speaker 5: No, I mean we looked at it. We looked at
- 21:49Speaker 5: we were playing. I mean, Col's played that pit and
- 21:53Speaker 5: he was just there at his past offseason. So I
- 21:55Speaker 5: talked to him about it a bit and talked to
- 21:57Speaker 5: my coach about it, and so I.
- 21:59Speaker 2: Mean, yeah, what was your mindset coming in? Like how
- 22:03Speaker 2: did you settle in?
- 22:04Speaker 5: Especially if you look at the yard for your person,
- 22:06Speaker 5: you know, just trust the operation. Call and Dan do
- 22:08Speaker 5: a great job getting the ball down long enough so
- 22:11Speaker 5: I can see it, and then from there it's on me.
- 22:13Speaker 5: So I just have to trust my operation.
- 22:15Speaker 2: What is that like?
- 22:15Speaker 5: Mindset?
- 22:16Speaker 2: Operation through your mind at that point?
- 22:18Speaker 5: Just trusted let your body take over.
- 22:20Speaker 2: You know? What was it like?
- 22:23Speaker 4: You hit a monster kick in the first quarter, there's
- 22:26Speaker 4: a penalm soil you guys get a first round, but.
- 22:28Speaker 2: The end up having to kick again? Was that difficult
- 22:31Speaker 2: for all? After your you think three on the board
- 22:34Speaker 2: and it's a monster.
- 22:36Speaker 5: Every kick is kind of the same I view it,
- 22:38Speaker 5: you know, I kind of try to hit the ball
- 22:40Speaker 5: as best as I can on every single kick. So
- 22:42Speaker 5: I viewed that whatever thirty eight, thirty five, I don't
- 22:47Speaker 5: know how far it was, and the deeper one the
- 22:49Speaker 5: contry does the same.
- 22:51Speaker 6: Tray letterflies afford the game during warm up same as
- 22:55Speaker 6: a game floor.
- 22:56Speaker 2: A little bit higher.
- 23:00Speaker 5: No, just about the same.
- 23:02Speaker 2: You know, tree, you relax, you can kill.
- 23:04Speaker 6: You knows worked out and feel great most the game
- 23:10Speaker 6: rows are yeparte, you feel some real leaf after forms
- 23:15Speaker 6: la that you did.
- 23:18Speaker 5: I don't really try to feel relief in this, you know,
- 23:20Speaker 5: kind of business because we always.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Got next week.
- 23:23Speaker 5: We always got to play next week, and uh, my
- 23:26Speaker 5: mind's already switched to the Broncos.
- 23:29Speaker 4: One thing that's kind of stood out and talking to you,
- 23:31Speaker 4: whether it's been in practice where maybe kicks didn't go
- 23:34Speaker 4: your way compared to hear it seems like your demeanor
- 23:36Speaker 4: kind of stays the same.
- 23:37Speaker 2: That changes, But does it give you confidence at all?
- 23:40Speaker 4: That It's like you can come into a difficult place
- 23:41Speaker 4: in your debut and knocked down some you know, a
- 23:44Speaker 4: yard short of a record here at fifty eight yards.
- 23:46Speaker 4: I mean, does it give you anything just kind of
- 23:48Speaker 4: moving forward you can build off.
- 23:50Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I think so. I think it'll built
- 23:53Speaker 5: some confidence and you know, every it is in your day,
- 23:56Speaker 5: it's just kind of you know, you gotta figure out
- 23:58Speaker 5: what kind blaw're good.
- 23:59Speaker 2: Hit that day.
- 24:00Speaker 5: Jordan loved to say it with the highlight of the night.
- 24:02Speaker 2: Matt LeFlore was like all smiles for you. I mean,
- 24:05Speaker 2: does that feel good to have that kind of support,
- 24:07Speaker 2: that kind of excitement around you.
- 24:09Speaker 5: Yeah, And you know they've been very supportive of when
- 24:12Speaker 5: I don't kick well either, you know, in practice and
- 24:14Speaker 5: when I do kick well. So that just kind of
- 24:16Speaker 5: shows you what kind of coaching staff.
- 24:18Speaker 2: And the players we have here. Trace Mac keeping that
- 24:23Speaker 2: even keel not only get too high, not gonna get
- 24:25Speaker 2: too low.
- 24:26Speaker 3: I'm not going to celebrate anything. I don't feel relief.
- 24:30Speaker 3: I don't feel sarady feel any relief. Okay, I like that,
- 24:34Speaker 3: and that's funny. So Trace Mac is our current electric
- 24:37Speaker 3: super here the day. Second place would be Kyle Schwarber.
- 24:40Speaker 3: We're hitting the first at bat home right into the corn.
- 24:44Speaker 3: Celebrate everybody there in Iowa. And two on the night
- 24:47Speaker 3: Kyle Schwarber is just a machine. Jake Bauer's opportunity there
- 24:51Speaker 3: for the game winner, but a small market rally drew.
- 24:54Speaker 3: Everyone deserves a little bit of celebration, a little bit
- 24:56Speaker 3: of the brewers. There's a graphic that will warm Arman's cockles.
- 25:00Speaker 3: Armin's the historian of the group. Schwarber hit the home run.
- 25:04Speaker 3: And there's a site. There's an x account at TV
- 25:09Speaker 3: sports Updates that I follow.
- 25:10Speaker 2: It's pretty good.
- 25:11Speaker 1: They have a chart here, a little graphic the first
- 25:15Speaker 1: player to hit a home run in a non exhibition
- 25:17Speaker 1: MLB game televised as part of a national coverage on
- 25:21Speaker 1: and then The little hashtag does not include games shared
- 25:24Speaker 1: with other national networks, like the Earliest World Series, which
- 25:27Speaker 1: used to be on more than one network. First home
- 25:29Speaker 1: run hit on CBS as a network was by Andy
- 25:33Speaker 1: Pafco from Boyceville, Wisconsin, Wow Let's Go, who played for
- 25:37Speaker 1: the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Milwaukee Braves.
- 25:40Speaker 2: The first home run hit on NBC in.
- 25:41Speaker 1: A nationally televised game Jackie Robinson ABC. First home run
- 25:46Speaker 1: was Wally Westlake Bowl Wally. First home run hit on
- 25:51Speaker 1: ESPN was hit by Sam Horn. First home run hit
- 25:54Speaker 1: on Fox by Fred McGriff. Run on TBS again National
- 25:59Speaker 1: Package only, not the Braves games when they were the superstation.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Was your VI Tori Albo. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, good play.
- 26:06Speaker 1: First home run hit on f S one Brian Doser,
- 26:09Speaker 1: first home run on YouTube, Matt Beattie, first home run
- 26:13Speaker 1: on Peacock, o'double Herrera, first home run on Apple TV.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Jeff McNeil.
- 26:19Speaker 2: How many streaming services as they go?
- 26:21Speaker 1: First home run on Roku was Tyler O'Neill. And now
- 26:25Speaker 1: Netflix because they had that opening night no homers. Now
- 26:29Speaker 1: this this does not count. Miguel Vargas hit a home
- 26:31Speaker 1: run in the All Star Game last month, but that
- 26:34Speaker 1: is not that's not a regular on exhibition game. So
- 26:37Speaker 1: Kyle Schwarber hit the first Netflix home run in a
- 26:40Speaker 1: real game. And then the first Facebook exclusive game was
- 26:44Speaker 1: the Mets Phillies and Ennis Cspits. Oh yeah, the first
- 26:50Speaker 1: guys to hit home runs on these streaming outlets.
- 26:53Speaker 2: I knew Arman would like that. Yeah, that's a fun list.
- 26:55Speaker 3: And we saw what Prime is going to be at
- 26:57Speaker 3: the Eastern Conference finals next year.
- 26:59Speaker 2: So we're in a new world. That's why I think
- 27:01Speaker 2: a lotily we're not making it.
- 27:02Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think it's funny people talk about
- 27:04Speaker 3: National TV because a lot of times now National TV
- 27:07Speaker 3: is everything.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Everything's national because you can stream it. But I digress.
- 27:11Speaker 2: Schwarmer is an interesting one.
- 27:13Speaker 3: I always talk about Hall of Fame candidates and we
- 27:15Speaker 3: like to play you know, Hall of Fame monitor, and
- 27:17Speaker 3: I did that after the show yesterday was somebody David Cohene.
- 27:21Speaker 3: I just you know, one of my favorite hobbies is
- 27:22Speaker 3: Billy knows Is. I like to gate keep. But that's
- 27:25Speaker 3: gonna be an interesting one. I used to scoff at
- 27:27Speaker 3: the idea. But he's had this late career surge in
- 27:31Speaker 3: verse where a lot of his best years will come
- 27:32Speaker 3: after the age of thirty, and it'll be interesting to
- 27:35Speaker 3: see if he keeps us up what he can do
- 27:36Speaker 3: it for his Hall of Fame status, He's gonna be
- 27:38Speaker 3: one of the greatest power hitters of the generation too. Yeah,
- 27:40Speaker 3: Like that's the other Yeah, that's the tough thing with
- 27:43Speaker 3: an elongated peak. And also you almost forget of how
- 27:48Speaker 3: he contributed to that World Series. In that Game seven,
- 27:52Speaker 3: he ends up having the first base hit that sparks
- 27:56Speaker 3: the two runs that they get in the was that
- 27:58Speaker 3: the ten inning, right the first extra inning after the
- 28:00Speaker 3: rain delay, and he came off at porn ACL that year,
- 28:03Speaker 3: barely played that year. A crazy, crazy comeback that he had.
- 28:06Speaker 3: So it's wild to see how that team and shows
- 28:12Speaker 3: listen championships you celebrate him because you never know. I
- 28:15Speaker 3: remember immediately following the twenty sixteen World Series, the conversation was,
- 28:19Speaker 3: so all these guys are so young and so good,
- 28:22Speaker 3: how many are they gonna win? There was an idea
- 28:24Speaker 3: it was actually very similar to me to the twenty
- 28:27Speaker 3: ten Packers, where you thought it could be a dynasty.
- 28:29Speaker 3: I don't know that they won another playoff series, did they?
- 28:32Speaker 3: Maybe in seventeen they went back to the NLCS, but
- 28:35Speaker 3: that was it. They lose the wild card round in
- 28:38Speaker 3: twenty eighteen after one sixty three, that's right, because.
- 28:40Speaker 2: They lost in the Mets that year, right in the NLCS.
- 28:42Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the next year they win one playoff
- 28:44Speaker 3: series and that's about it. Well, if I gave you
- 28:46Speaker 3: that whole lineup too, which on would you say was
- 28:48Speaker 3: the moment the Hall of Fame chance it would have
- 28:50Speaker 3: been Chris Brian or maybe Rizzo or maybe even Hobby
- 28:53Speaker 3: Baiez at one point And here's and here's old college
- 28:56Speaker 3: for were waltzing in with fifty years.
- 28:59Speaker 2: After they hit to thirty.
- 29:00Speaker 1: By the way, as long as we're we're talking about
- 29:02Speaker 1: first homers on these TV outlets, can you guys win
- 29:05Speaker 1: a bar Bet? Who hit the first home run in
- 29:07Speaker 1: then Miller Park now American Family Field?
- 29:11Speaker 2: It wasn't Richie? Was it a Brewer? Cincinnati read because
- 29:14Speaker 2: the Reds were always playing us those days. It was
- 29:17Speaker 2: a Cincinnati Oh, that's what I'm saying.
- 29:19Speaker 3: We always were playing the Reds. There were four home
- 29:21Speaker 3: runs in that game. It was not Ken Grify j
- 29:24Speaker 3: I'll take like Adam Donner. One of these guys, Garry Larkin,
- 29:28Speaker 3: he scored the first run. Guess he was driven in.
- 29:32Speaker 3: But the first home run by Michael Tucker.
- 29:37Speaker 2: Kyle's dad know that Michael. He was a brave.
- 29:41Speaker 1: Michael Tucker, Dimitri Young, Jeremy Bernitz, and Richie Sexton hit
- 29:45Speaker 1: the first US, the first hit in American Family Field.
- 29:47Speaker 1: The first pitch was thrown by Well Jeff di Nico
- 29:49Speaker 1: or President bush At. The first hit was by Sean Casey,
- 29:53Speaker 1: the mayor the first Brewers. The first double in the
- 29:55Speaker 1: first Brewers hit was Jose Hernandez. You know who hit
- 29:58Speaker 1: the first triple in Miller Park.
- 30:00Speaker 3: History, Chad Moeller, No idea, I'm gonna guess bell Yard.
- 30:04Speaker 1: Or is this is when you can definitely win a
- 30:07Speaker 1: bet on Jeff Demiko the wow.
- 30:12Speaker 2: I love that. I love that it was not in
- 30:17Speaker 2: his second and his second start, on his second start.
- 30:20Speaker 2: It was April twelfth. It was a week later.
- 30:22Speaker 3: So guys, when I worked the store, we had boxes
- 30:25Speaker 3: of extra commemorative first game balls.
- 30:28Speaker 2: First game, yes, so it was the Reds.
- 30:30Speaker 3: We had boxes and they would sell for a dollar
- 30:33Speaker 3: to all these kids that wanted a souvenir on like
- 30:35Speaker 3: cub Scout Day, coming in with these their sweaty dollar
- 30:38Speaker 3: bills and stuff.
- 30:39Speaker 2: Harmon. I'm telling you, I think I had five of
- 30:41Speaker 2: those at home. I played.
- 30:42Speaker 3: I played with the mini bat until I was maybe
- 30:45Speaker 3: thirteen that had that opening series of Miller Park logo.
- 30:49Speaker 3: And I know, for sir, I'm almost positive my dad
- 30:52Speaker 3: wasn't at the game. He went and grabbed all of those,
- 30:54Speaker 3: uh discounter rackets. You've got to celebrate all of them.
- 30:57Speaker 3: That's phenomenal. I actually don't know that I've seen I
- 31:01Speaker 3: shouldn't say that. I do know that I went back
- 31:03Speaker 3: in armand sorry and.
- 31:04Speaker 2: Some of it.

- 33:22Speaker 3: six months from today is the super Bowl. That's kind
- 33:27Speaker 3: of wild, Like.
- 33:28Speaker 2: It just.
- 33:30Speaker 3: You don't think about just how quickly it is. Six
- 33:33Speaker 3: months from today is Super Bowl Sunday. Then we just
- 33:36Speaker 3: started preseason game number one last night, So.
- 33:39Speaker 2: It's really a five months. Why does it feel longer?
- 33:42Speaker 3: Because there's so much action they play every single almost
- 33:46Speaker 3: every single night now.
- 33:47Speaker 2: And the drag and it's so captivating.
- 33:49Speaker 3: It's a full season. It's the longest offseason, the shortest season.
- 33:52Speaker 3: No wonder why it's the number one sport in the world.
- 33:54Speaker 3: But that just that, that mind melted me for a second.
- 33:57Speaker 3: But I did want to light up and spark up
- 33:59Speaker 3: in and waken bake for one final time, celebrating the
- 34:02Speaker 3: life of Don Nelson. His celebration of life last night
- 34:05Speaker 3: was in Or yesterday was in Dallas for the second.

- 34:19Speaker 3: it for everybody that loved the eighties bucks go and
- 34:21Speaker 3: read it because you will enjoy the words of it.
- 34:24Speaker 3: But I can't wait. Steve Nash mentioning everything that he
- 34:27Speaker 3: did for him. Dirk Novinsky was unable to attend the

- 34:36Speaker 3: he came into the room everything lit up.
- 34:39Speaker 2: No way.
- 34:39Speaker 3: Really, he was funny, he was loud, he was joking,
- 34:42Speaker 3: but he's truly one of a kind and the ultimate players.
- 34:44Speaker 3: Coach Rick Carlisle spoke talked about the Nelly Ball ways
- 34:49Speaker 3: of changing the game, as well as Sidney Moncrief, Donnie Nelson,
- 34:54Speaker 3: his son, Tim Hardaway, Chris Mullin, and obviously.
- 34:58Speaker 2: Owen Wilson submitted a video like why Why Why would
- 35:02Speaker 2: Wilson also be a part of Don Nelson's uh celebration
- 35:06Speaker 2: of life man eighty six years hell a hell of
- 35:09Speaker 2: a run.
- 35:09Speaker 3: Great Popovich was a part of it as well, and
- 35:12Speaker 3: pop said it's obviously sad for everybody, uh that it
- 35:15Speaker 3: has to be an event like this for a way
- 35:17Speaker 3: to get together, but it's emblematic of what Nelly did
- 35:21Speaker 3: for almost all of us.
- 35:22Speaker 2: He had some effect on all of us in this
- 35:25Speaker 2: church today. I love that.
