Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome to the five o'clock Club. I'm Drew Wilson, joined
- 0:03Speaker 1: by Bill Schmid.
- 0:04Speaker 2: Understandably so it's the gritty little morning show that you
- 0:06Speaker 2: didn't know that you could live without.
- 0:07Speaker 1: Drew, that's right, and Arm and Siron behind the glass
- 0:11Speaker 1: producing the program.
- 0:12Speaker 3: Good morning.
- 0:13Speaker 1: We begin today with our thoughts and well wishes for
- 0:16Speaker 1: the folks in the Fox Valley who got decimated by
- 0:19Speaker 1: a ginormous tornado yesterday.
- 0:21Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, the the video of that.
- 0:23Speaker 1: Like, I don't know where you guys were experiencing it
- 0:26Speaker 1: yesterday afternoon.
- 0:27Speaker 3: I was hunkered down trying to keep the dog.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Calm, and uh yeah, it got you a little bit gnarly,
- 0:33Speaker 1: not horrible, just to kind of some sideways rain and
- 0:36Speaker 1: some stiff winds by me. But when I saw the videos,
- 0:39Speaker 1: I was like, holy cow, the freeway and the whole
- 0:42Speaker 1: corridor up there, Uh Appleton Manasha.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Football's field and just all of the homes and livelihoods.
- 0:53Speaker 2: It's upside down cars, uh, Debri, I mean a semi
- 0:57Speaker 2: truck over the middle over the median.
- 1:00Speaker 3: Used to see and.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Like you know, when you see these a lot of
- 1:02Speaker 1: times it's in Kansas or Oklahoma or something like that
- 1:04Speaker 1: tornado alley. But when you see these and they've happened
- 1:08Speaker 1: here before. Obviously we've had some barnavow old and we've
- 1:10Speaker 1: had some tornadoes around Dodge Counties, but yeah, Dodge County
- 1:14Speaker 1: is like seems to be our that's our Oklahoma.
- 1:17Speaker 2: Yeah, generally speaking, when you see the last see the
- 1:20Speaker 2: red on the tornado warning again, you know that it's
- 1:23Speaker 2: gonna be in that area.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Whatever reason, because the positioning of the lakes or whatever.
- 1:26Speaker 1: But it was uh man, it was stark. I checked
- 1:29Speaker 1: in with our pals, Butchy and Nags and both are
- 1:33Speaker 1: doing well. Nags hit me back first, but you didn't
- 1:37Speaker 1: get back to me untill late, and I was getting worried.
- 1:39Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Naggs said everyone, all his people are good. Worst part
- 1:43Speaker 1: hit further south of his dad's place. But god, that
- 1:45Speaker 1: was scary bleep. And then Butcher hit me back and
- 1:48Speaker 1: thanks and said it was about a half mile difference.
- 1:51Speaker 3: And we would be having a different story. Wow. Yes,
- 1:54Speaker 3: it's a humbling and scary thing to think about.
- 1:56Speaker 4: And then when you see all the the people's lives
- 1:58Speaker 4: affected in the valley, uh, and you see the destruction,
- 2:01Speaker 4: it's it's very eerie because uh, you, the power of
- 2:04Speaker 4: some of these storms is is unbelievable when you really
- 2:07Speaker 4: start thinking about, you know, these huge structures that are
- 2:10Speaker 4: getting just thrown around by it.
- 2:11Speaker 3: So a very sad thing.
- 2:13Speaker 4: And luckily I believe I didn't see any fatalities, any
- 2:16Speaker 4: any casualties anywhere. Hopefully that continues, and yeah, and everyone
- 2:21Speaker 4: can work together and rebuild and get through it together
- 2:24Speaker 4: because there you know you can uh, you can do that.
- 2:28Speaker 4: You know there are some things you can't replace, but
- 2:29Speaker 4: it's still it's still a harrowing difficult thing to have
- 2:32Speaker 4: to deal with in the time. And so we hope
- 2:35Speaker 4: everybody's doing good up there, man, And we've been through
- 2:37Speaker 4: some tough ones. I remember it was it was it
- 2:40Speaker 4: Stoton in two thousand and five, I want to say,
- 2:43Speaker 4: in my I remember, and then in my youth there
- 2:44Speaker 4: was a bad one in ninety six in Oakfield was
- 2:46Speaker 4: the one. So you I saw it went to e
- 2:49Speaker 4: F two. Very scary stuff up there. And what difference
- 2:52Speaker 4: between the F two and the e F two. It's
- 2:54Speaker 4: a great question, Billy. I wish I knew more. I
- 2:56Speaker 4: you should get some of our meteorologists from Okay.
- 2:59Speaker 2: That's first. Some I've heard ef two. But if that,
- 3:01Speaker 2: if that's a two, I don't want to know anything else.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Scare higher up and the eeriness is like the because
- 3:09Speaker 2: apparently now, I mean I shouldn't say just now. People
- 3:12Speaker 2: have been showing storm chasing for quite some time. But
- 3:14Speaker 2: with the Internet and with four K cameras Drew and
- 3:16Speaker 2: sweet super stealth stick video cameras that you can get,
- 3:21Speaker 2: we got a lot of dudes trying to be content
- 3:23Speaker 2: creators and storm chasers. And then like you see those videos,
- 3:28Speaker 2: harrowing and then after as eerie as it possibly can be,
- 3:32Speaker 2: like the sun comes out in your the drone shots
- 3:35Speaker 2: of all of the minasha in Fox Valley area, just
- 3:38Speaker 2: a terrifying, terrifying day, but as as sadly the reality
- 3:43Speaker 2: for a lot of folks across the world and across
- 3:46Speaker 2: the country. Everybody wakes up the next hopefully everyone wakes
- 3:49Speaker 2: up the next day, and now it's you know, day
- 3:52Speaker 2: one of rebuilding, and we're gonna be here to help
- 3:54Speaker 2: you at least make that can potentially a little bit better,
- 3:58Speaker 2: and you know, check on your people, because like you
- 4:00Speaker 2: just said, it's it's good to be able to have
- 4:02Speaker 2: those conversations and sometimes it's therapeutic for those to discuss. Like,
- 4:07Speaker 2: that's how close we were and how close it can
- 4:09Speaker 2: be to having a much different conversation.
- 4:12Speaker 4: Yeah, indeed, Billy, look out for each other, look off
- 4:14Speaker 4: for your neighbor, look for ways to help each other
- 4:16Speaker 4: and serve each other F scale.
- 4:18Speaker 3: I guess this is EF is just.
- 4:19Speaker 4: An updated version of that enhanced F scale. No, there's
- 4:22Speaker 4: your answer.
- 4:23Speaker 2: That sounds like B war and F war. They don't
- 4:25Speaker 2: know exactly how to measure it. Yeah, that's right. Measure
- 4:28Speaker 2: check ins are welcome today. We'll be doing some buying
- 4:30Speaker 2: and selling later in the program.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Eight seven seven se four ninety seven three is your
- 4:35Speaker 1: ticket to the nicolay lot dot com talking text line
- 4:38Speaker 1: and check in, especially if you're our friends from the
- 4:40Speaker 1: Fox Valley.
- 4:41Speaker 3: Love to hear from you.
- 4:43Speaker 1: I was wondering, like, I know that the minor leagues
- 4:45Speaker 1: are off on Mondays the way that they structure things
- 4:48Speaker 1: now basically, and the t Rats play at home tonight
- 4:52Speaker 1: or our schedule to play at home tonight, Like I
- 4:55Speaker 1: didn't see anything about damage at the ballpark, But I
- 4:59Speaker 1: didn't see any actually anything updated, like from the t
- 5:02Speaker 1: Rats socials.
- 5:04Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't seen anything from there. Either, I like
- 5:06Speaker 2: maybe hopefully it was a little bit of ways, but
- 5:10Speaker 2: like I saw Kyle mels On people trying to comment
- 5:13Speaker 2: on his post when they had shown the pictures of
- 5:16Speaker 2: the Nasha football field, and well, I'll bought you talk
- 5:19Speaker 2: about the lives and the homes that are also destroyed.
- 5:22Speaker 2: I that will be the subsequent post, and all my
- 5:24Speaker 2: thoughts and prayers are with everybody. But that's where sadly,
- 5:27Speaker 2: your thought your head goes when you are a sports
- 5:30Speaker 2: reporter and sports director for Channel five up there in
- 5:32Speaker 2: the valley, and it's it's one that you don't necessarily
- 5:37Speaker 2: love to go back to, but you know, it's where
- 5:40Speaker 2: we traffic and a lot of times you just wonder
- 5:42Speaker 2: if that's gonna happen. And I mean, I got a
- 5:44Speaker 2: high school football hat on here today, Drew. You know, sadly,
- 5:48Speaker 2: those kids are gonna be ready for getting ready for
- 5:50Speaker 2: their senior season just a couple of weeks. So hopefully
- 5:52Speaker 2: everything can get settled down and calmed down up there
- 5:55Speaker 2: that their year can go off without a hitch.
- 5:57Speaker 4: Well, it's also a school and a important community center
- 6:00Speaker 4: where people gathered, so I think that's kind of yeah,
- 6:03Speaker 4: it's kind kind of silly to go out for somebody
- 6:05Speaker 4: those are They did.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Stories about the decimation from the flooding and stuff of
- 6:09Speaker 1: Hard Park, which is a facility that's used by a
- 6:13Speaker 1: lot of high school teams last year in August of
- 6:17Speaker 1: the town. Yeah, they were shut down all last year
- 6:19Speaker 1: as they rebuilt it. And yeah, that's news because that
- 6:22Speaker 1: affects you know, that has uh, that effects people who
- 6:25Speaker 1: don't even live there, mark that high plays, like there's
- 6:28Speaker 1: a lot of teams that play there and use that facility.
- 6:32Speaker 1: So yeah, but I was also thinking about our meteorologist friends.
- 6:36Speaker 1: This storm came together really quickly, and for everybody who
- 6:40Speaker 1: bitches when they interrupt Dancing with the Stars for a
- 6:43Speaker 1: weather update, and it's like.
- 6:45Speaker 3: Why are they saying this? It's that Dodge County? What
- 6:46Speaker 3: do I care about Dodge County? Like this is what
- 6:49Speaker 3: it's about, man, Because absolutely, and I could thankfully.
- 6:55Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, there's never a good time,
- 6:56Speaker 1: but you'd rather have this happen at noon than at
- 6:58Speaker 1: midnight when people are asleep.
- 7:00Speaker 3: Right, yeah, very true.
- 7:01Speaker 1: You know you might wake up to the alert on
- 7:03Speaker 1: your phone or the sirens. But damn, this one came
- 7:06Speaker 1: together quickly and it's not like I think there there
- 7:10Speaker 1: was talk of like a chance for severe weather, but
- 7:12Speaker 1: you can't really predict something like this. And again I
- 7:15Speaker 1: think Lake Winnebago and there their proximity to that just
- 7:21Speaker 1: that I'm no meteor I'll just but I.
- 7:22Speaker 3: Think that, Yeah, I think so.
- 7:26Speaker 1: And it was the perfect storm of like I think
- 7:28Speaker 1: the dew points were in the high seventies or low
- 7:31Speaker 1: eighties yesterday.
- 7:32Speaker 2: I mean we mentioned you walk out and walk outside
- 7:34Speaker 2: yesterday in the glasses, you could cut.
- 7:38Speaker 3: It with a knife. Man, you could cut that humidity
- 7:40Speaker 3: with a knife.
- 7:41Speaker 1: But yeah, that that and then some of the video
- 7:43Speaker 1: I've seen just harrowing of people driving and people even
- 7:48Speaker 1: outside like a target and stuff. At noon it looked
- 7:51Speaker 1: black as midnight. And then to see all the the
- 7:54Speaker 1: debris and when I saw, you know, you see debris
- 7:57Speaker 1: scattered and stuff, and like they're gonna find homes and
- 8:01Speaker 1: you know, artifacts from homes like miles away over the
- 8:05Speaker 1: place because the debris feel like the debris was up
- 8:08Speaker 1: in like the ten fifteen thousand feet range. That's how
- 8:13Speaker 1: the updraft, that's how strong. The storm was so absolutely
- 8:16Speaker 1: harrowing that we had this this.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Path and then there was also like golf ball and
- 8:23Speaker 2: baseball sized hailed the company you did in other spots.
- 8:27Speaker 2: Her friend Brick Brighton had some just incredible digital assets
- 8:31Speaker 2: of you know, horrifying devastation. But then also like the
- 8:35Speaker 2: one of some viewer of hers shot of inside their
- 8:39Speaker 2: house looking at the patio door while it was happening outside,
- 8:43Speaker 2: and you're right, it's one in the afternoon, and you
- 8:45Speaker 2: swear to god it's the middle of the night. It's
- 8:47Speaker 2: just it was a very very distressing day, and it
- 8:51Speaker 2: just comes very very quickly, instantly, all of a.
- 8:54Speaker 3: Sudden, you're like, whoa one hundred and sixty mile an
- 8:56Speaker 3: hour winds.
- 8:57Speaker 1: And it happened between eleven fifty five and eleven fifty nine,
- 9:00Speaker 1: just east of the rail yards off West Second Street,
- 9:03Speaker 1: passing over or near Xavier High School, and then crossed
- 9:07Speaker 1: the Fox River over US ten near the Manashi Youth,
- 9:11Speaker 1: the sports complex and Route forty seven, and then it
- 9:14Speaker 1: intensified at twelve oh five as it passed over Jefferson
- 9:17Speaker 1: Park and a huge debris ball appeared on the radar.
- 9:21Speaker 3: That's what they know.
- 9:22Speaker 1: That's when it got really real, and it strengthened over
- 9:26Speaker 1: Lake Winnebago, and then hit the other side of it
- 9:28Speaker 1: like that easton Lake Winnebago and wow on the ground
- 9:32Speaker 1: for approximately thirty minutes.
- 9:34Speaker 3: It's crazy.
- 9:34Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and here's a debris was lofted between sixteen
- 9:37Speaker 1: twenty thousand feet.
- 9:38Speaker 3: That's airplane height. They have debree that high.
- 9:42Speaker 4: It's really unbelievable, and and it does. It is such
- 9:44Speaker 4: a rare occurrence. I mean, obviously the risk is always
- 9:47Speaker 4: there more in and around in Wisconsin. But you're right,
- 9:50Speaker 4: there were some meteorological confluence of events that made this
- 9:53Speaker 4: quick and devastating because there wasn't a lot of I
- 9:56Speaker 4: do honestee, a lot of warning that people thought there
- 9:58Speaker 4: could be a high torny air rist and then those
- 10:00Speaker 4: conditions ramped up all once.
- 10:03Speaker 3: So that also made it tough. Perfect storm.
- 10:05Speaker 1: Yeah, I know some people around here were I mean,
- 10:08Speaker 1: just imagine you're out on the golf course and this
- 10:10Speaker 1: comes up or on god forbid, on the lake.
- 10:13Speaker 3: Summer or something.
- 10:14Speaker 2: Yeah, sadly like we saw a couple of weeks ago
- 10:16Speaker 2: with those in Lake Geneva.
- 10:18Speaker 3: Yeah, right there.
- 10:19Speaker 2: There's always going to be the people that say they
- 10:22Speaker 2: know better, but this thing can come on you so quickly,
- 10:25Speaker 2: and there's only so many escape routes at certain spots.
- 10:29Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, just think about the timing of it.
- 10:32Speaker 1: The EAA event was just last week and that was
- 10:35Speaker 1: you know, hurrowing. Obviously it was north of there, but still, wow,
- 10:40Speaker 1: just a trip, man. It's like, we're hoping everybody is okay.
- 10:43Speaker 1: I know, the cleanup from a catastrophe like this is
- 10:47Speaker 1: going to be long and arduous. And they don't have
- 10:49Speaker 1: power up there. You know, they boil for the water.
- 10:52Speaker 1: You have boil advisories and stuff. So no water, no power,
- 10:55Speaker 1: it's not fun. So we're wishing the best for everybody
- 10:58Speaker 1: up there as we from our perch. Something else, all right,
- 11:03Speaker 1: So sports wise, Brewers lose late last night.
- 11:06Speaker 3: Raise your hand if you watched a single pitch of
- 11:08Speaker 3: the game. I watched way too much of it. I
- 11:11Speaker 3: did not, Yeah, way too much.
- 11:13Speaker 2: And not like there wasn't opportunity and Brandon Sprok gave
- 11:18Speaker 2: you every opportunity to be in there. But then all
- 11:21Speaker 2: of a sudden, walking in with a two to nine
- 11:23Speaker 2: record and a plus five era, Tyler Malley decides to
- 11:28Speaker 2: have the best game of the year and scatter three
- 11:30Speaker 2: hits in a three nothing loss that did make me
- 11:34Speaker 2: wonder why I stayed up to watch a large majority
- 11:36Speaker 2: of that game. However, it gets better coming up tonight,
- 11:39Speaker 2: gets better coming up here tonight.
- 11:41Speaker 3: At the eight to forty five first pitch, Yeah, good call, Billy,
- 11:43Speaker 3: I like that. Yeah.
- 11:44Speaker 4: And some odd issues in the field. I mean, Jake
- 11:46Speaker 4: Bowers had his issues in right last night. I don't
- 11:48Speaker 4: know about any of those specifically came to bite that
- 11:50Speaker 4: I can't remember, but it was just one of those things.
- 11:53Speaker 4: Todd Rozick reported the Brewers had have waited in the
- 11:55Speaker 4: tarmac five hours to get out of Milwaukee because they
- 11:57Speaker 4: had to fix the plane or something with a chart
- 12:01Speaker 4: and Pat didn't want to use that as an excuse,
- 12:03Speaker 4: but obviously when you're going west and you have a
- 12:05Speaker 4: long trip and you're gonna do that, you know had
- 12:08Speaker 4: a factor with why the Brewers offense seemed to.
- 12:10Speaker 3: Roll over all out.
- 12:11Speaker 1: Lest Big League travel is about as good as it gets.
- 12:14Speaker 1: Like when I was covering that team, and I often
- 12:16Speaker 1: had connecting flights.
- 12:18Speaker 3: And early early arrival, you know, early early wake us
- 12:20Speaker 3: times and stuff.
- 12:21Speaker 1: They would have, you know, they'd leave after the game,
- 12:23Speaker 1: but once in a while they would hit the snaffoos
- 12:26Speaker 1: and kind of be like the rest of us, kind
- 12:28Speaker 1: of like traveling without your cell phone.
- 12:30Speaker 3: Very quick call back to yesterday's program.
- 12:32Speaker 1: But uh so, yeah, that that was a factor. I'm
- 12:37Speaker 1: sure flying West always is. There's an acclamation thing that
- 12:42Speaker 1: goes on. Interesting though, watching Brandon Sprote right, because like,
- 12:49Speaker 1: on the one hand he looked really good and on
- 12:51Speaker 1: the other hand walked a bunch of guys and I
- 12:54Speaker 1: did see the highlight where they dropped a nuclear lush
- 12:56Speaker 1: on him.
- 12:57Speaker 3: It's been a full on.
- 13:01Speaker 2: Just you've gotten the entire brand and sprod experience in
- 13:05Speaker 2: his four and a half months as a brewer, because
- 13:08Speaker 2: he has had all of the excitement, the energy, and
- 13:11Speaker 2: the backing of the manager, front office, everybody. At any
- 13:16Speaker 2: given point in time when Sprots ran into rough Patches
- 13:19Speaker 2: said you guy's got to hold on here. Look at
- 13:21Speaker 2: the town here, Look at the way he's spinning this pill.
- 13:24Speaker 2: He is throwing this thing all over the place. Great movement,
- 13:27Speaker 2: great break on all of his pitches. He is going
- 13:29Speaker 2: to be a big time, big league starter. And you're
- 13:31Speaker 2: watching a lot of the results saying I'm excited to
- 13:34Speaker 2: see when that happens. I'm excited to see when you're
- 13:38Speaker 2: not walking the first four guys against the White Sox
- 13:40Speaker 2: or three guys against the White Sox, and then I
- 13:42Speaker 2: think on a two zero or three to zero pitch
- 13:44Speaker 2: giving up a granny.
- 13:46Speaker 3: So you've worked through a lot of them.
- 13:48Speaker 2: And last night was a good Brandon sprod experience where
- 13:50Speaker 2: I mean, he can't catch the fly ball for Jake
- 13:53Speaker 2: Bauers in the first inning, but he can get you
- 13:55Speaker 2: out of it and does. And then just a couple
- 13:58Speaker 2: too many walks in the third inning and it comes
- 14:01Speaker 2: back to bite you. You put too many guys on
- 14:03Speaker 2: base freely, they are going to come around and score,
- 14:06Speaker 2: and that's exactly how you got beat by the Dodgers
- 14:09Speaker 2: a year ago. It just feels like you've lived the
- 14:12Speaker 2: entire brand and Sprout experience in the four and a
- 14:15Speaker 2: half months, and we get him for another four and
- 14:16Speaker 2: a half years.
- 14:17Speaker 3: So it could be a lot more fun.
- 14:19Speaker 2: But it's it's a time and one of the biggest
- 14:22Speaker 2: reasons why Drew I think it's time that they start
- 14:24Speaker 2: really finding somebody on the starting pitching market here. In
- 14:27Speaker 2: the next seven days before that August started deadline.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I was thinking about it, and you know, if you're
- 14:33Speaker 1: gonna make that big swing if you're gonna go get
- 14:36Speaker 1: that tark.
- 14:36Speaker 3: Schooble to use the the big name mm hmm.
- 14:40Speaker 1: If they asked for for if they asked for Brandon
- 14:44Speaker 1: sprot in the deal, would throw them in?
- 14:46Speaker 3: Oh I would?
- 14:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I would not be uh you whipp against four
- 14:51Speaker 1: years of team control and some tantalized stuff like he's
- 14:54Speaker 1: gonna you can.
- 14:55Speaker 3: Learn how to hold runners on and not allow stolen bases.
- 14:58Speaker 3: You can do that. Yeah, well he's good at that.
- 14:59Speaker 3: He leaves the big leagues and pickoffs.
- 15:01Speaker 2: It's amount letting the guys first base, which is the
- 15:03Speaker 2: biggest problem.
- 15:04Speaker 3: For Yeah, it was a weird night for some reason.
- 15:07Speaker 4: They were running on him and the Brewers and it
- 15:09Speaker 4: was a weird d That usually isn't his problem, it's
- 15:10Speaker 4: actually the opposite.
- 15:11Speaker 3: But you're right, Bill, you can't allow that many guys on.
- 15:13Speaker 1: You're picking guys up because you've got that many guys walk.
- 15:15Speaker 4: But Road is a guy. I think he's gonna get better.
- 15:18Speaker 4: I mean, he's got talent, he's got stuff. He's young
- 15:20Speaker 4: still and he's gonna work through and improve. And that's
- 15:22Speaker 4: probably what makes him tantalizing.
- 15:24Speaker 1: Is a trade quality start, you'll take it. But it
- 15:26Speaker 1: was a rocky ride to a quality start, right and
- 15:29Speaker 1: you give them you know, he worked his way through
- 15:33Speaker 1: the heart of their order a couple of times in
- 15:36Speaker 1: precarious situations and then gave up run scoring hits to
- 15:39Speaker 1: guys that you would think that he'd be able to
- 15:41Speaker 1: get out.
- 15:42Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean when you got a guy on
- 15:43Speaker 2: third face endeavors that's then arise in devers.
- 15:46Speaker 3: Those are the moments that you don't want.
- 15:47Speaker 2: And then uh, when in the the homer goes to
- 15:51Speaker 2: some guy that not a whole lot of us McCray
- 15:52Speaker 2: have ever heard and he ate hole. Uh, those are
- 15:55Speaker 2: his first homer Hofer to realize. It's also what a
- 16:00Speaker 2: different game to play in the late stages of July,
- 16:04Speaker 2: where you come back from or you go out west
- 16:07Speaker 2: from American Family Field, where you could tell some people
- 16:11Speaker 2: it was a sauna this weekend, the humidity, I could
- 16:14Speaker 2: be a steam room at your local health club. And
- 16:17Speaker 2: then all of a sudden you roll out west and
- 16:20Speaker 2: the sun's blasting and Jake Power's eye can't catch the
- 16:23Speaker 2: first fly ball, and all of a sudden, in the
- 16:25Speaker 2: middle of the fifth inning, it looks like it's about
- 16:26Speaker 2: fifty degrees.
- 16:28Speaker 3: It's major contrast going out.
- 16:31Speaker 2: And playing all summer long and then going and hanging
- 16:34Speaker 2: out in San Francisco.
- 16:35Speaker 3: Lane Grindle really enjoyed the Mark Twain quote. Again.
- 16:38Speaker 2: I think I've heard him say it every single time,
- 16:41Speaker 2: and by the way, San Francisco.
- 16:42Speaker 1: But it was not Mark Twain. It was someone else,
- 16:45Speaker 1: but it wasn't miss.
- 16:48Speaker 3: Mark Twain.
- 16:49Speaker 1: Yeah, the coldest winter I ever spent was a summer
- 16:52Speaker 1: in San Francisco.
- 16:52Speaker 3: Sir. Yeah, oh no, I gotta figure this out.
- 16:55Speaker 1: It was apparently not Mark Twain that said that. He's
- 16:58Speaker 1: it was misattributed. But day it's a good line.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well they were wearing there now, they were
- 17:03Speaker 2: wearing it out last night's for sure.
- 17:05Speaker 3: Yeah, I was.
- 17:06Speaker 1: I saw Sophia a minute in the press box on
- 17:09Speaker 1: Sunday and we were talking about going to San fran
- 17:12Speaker 1: and Rock was saying, Rock, who's going to join us
- 17:15Speaker 1: today at seven thirty?
- 17:17Speaker 3: Uh?
- 17:17Speaker 1: He said like he was like, yeah, yeah, they're leaving
- 17:20Speaker 1: right after the game. And I'm like, oh, so if
- 17:21Speaker 1: this's got a tough one to pack for She's like,
- 17:23Speaker 1: it's all about the layers. Oh yeah, you've got to
- 17:26Speaker 1: have layers to go to San Francisco, because, like you said,
- 17:28Speaker 1: it can start out ball me and in the blink
- 17:31Speaker 1: of an eye it can be freezing.
- 17:32Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 17:32Speaker 2: I mean when it looks like a playoff game in
- 17:34Speaker 2: the stands and you see a lot of Parkers, that's
- 17:37Speaker 2: what you know. It's a different a different spot, a different,
- 17:39Speaker 2: different place during the schedule that you're you're making, no question.
- 17:43Speaker 1: So we are another day closer to the trade deadline,
- 17:46Speaker 1: no action. We've got pupp lists to talk about with
- 17:49Speaker 1: the Packers in the NFL. Some last minute contract shenanigans
- 17:53Speaker 1: negotiations going on in the NFL. As camps are opening,
- 17:57Speaker 1: Packers hit the field on Wednesday, which will mark the
- 17:59Speaker 1: day of training camp.

- 18:22Speaker 1: a homestand he NBA back together. He and BA are
- 18:25Speaker 1: going to be reunited for many of the games. Rolling
- 18:28Speaker 1: forward in August, and September, which is good.
- 18:30Speaker 3: That's what I like to hear.
- 18:31Speaker 1: Not that we don't enjoy the stylings of lev and
- 18:35Speaker 1: you know, Vinnie.
- 18:36Speaker 2: And never gonna say that, no, but it is. It's
- 18:39Speaker 2: nice to know homes where the heart is and homes
- 18:41Speaker 2: where rock is. I mean, like that is one where
- 18:43Speaker 2: as long as you're gonna go seven and two on
- 18:45Speaker 2: the nine game homestands, I wouldn't.
- 18:47Speaker 3: I wouldn't make any trips either, Like that.
- 18:49Speaker 2: Would be as long as they're gonna get those kind
- 18:51Speaker 2: of dubs, Drew, while we're out there, we might as
- 18:53Speaker 2: well hang out.
- 18:53Speaker 3: Yeah, might as well.
- 18:55Speaker 1: All right, we are off and running the Tuesday edition
- 18:58Speaker 1: of the show. You didn't know You can't live with that.
- 19:00Speaker 1: You are in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio is cuple
- 19:02Speaker 1: Bili Schmid, who will be live with Wayne Larvy tomorrow
- 19:05Speaker 1: as the Packers fire it up eleven to one training
- 19:07Speaker 1: camp live right here on these airwaves and interwebs. You
- 19:10Speaker 1: can find it and listen to it and enjoy it.
- 19:12Speaker 1: I don't know what that means for Billy. You gonna
- 19:13Speaker 1: pop in on your way up to.
- 19:15Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm thinking i'll uh, especially since we don't have
- 19:18Speaker 2: a halftime correspondent. No Dolph this week, I'll be in
- 19:21Speaker 2: here before before we fly up. Uh, And there's uh,
- 19:26Speaker 2: you know, there is Billy.
- 19:27Speaker 4: I'd just like we get a double dose Billy of
- 19:29Speaker 4: you today, yeah, or not today, tomorrows this week tomorrow.
- 19:33Speaker 3: Well, I'm excited for that. I'm probably about the same
- 19:36Speaker 3: amount of time.
- 19:36Speaker 2: But but I like where you're I like where you're
- 19:38Speaker 2: at different but you you're in the You're in the mix.
- 19:41Speaker 2: Uh for the next three days. However, Sunday is when
- 19:44Speaker 2: it will actually ramp up. We all understand that.
- 19:46Speaker 3: But the pups and the non pups. Uh for the
- 19:50Speaker 3: dogs barking this week.
- 19:51Speaker 2: That was seemingly the big news yesterday after the finance
- 19:55Speaker 2: reports drew.
- 19:55Speaker 3: Then we actually got the player reports. Yeah, and it
- 19:58Speaker 3: was a mixed bag of good news and bad news.
- 20:01Speaker 1: Right, Zach Tom and DeVante Wyatt are not on the
- 20:04Speaker 1: pupp list all right to play, which I was, you know,
- 20:08Speaker 1: kind of hold my breath because the lack of information
- 20:10Speaker 1: about Zach Tom was getting a little loud.
- 20:12Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was almost beginning to believe that they
- 20:16Speaker 2: would just take, you know, out of the abundance of caution,
- 20:19Speaker 2: have Tom on the pupp list and ease him in
- 20:22Speaker 2: as much as possible. The DeVante Wyatt one, I guess
- 20:26Speaker 2: was a little bit more understandable, because I don't know
- 20:30Speaker 2: that they're letting him put pen to paper in that
- 20:32Speaker 2: sweet white suit with the green tie that he did
- 20:34Speaker 2: on that fifty seven million dollar extension if they don't feel.
- 20:37Speaker 3: Pretty confident that he's good. But both of them ready
- 20:39Speaker 3: to go.
- 20:40Speaker 1: That's good news at least so the other pupps physically
- 20:43Speaker 1: unable to perform Tucker Craft all right, No shock that
- 20:46Speaker 1: Avon Hargrave, Aaron Banks, Luke Musgrave, Kamal hadn't.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Kamal hadn't.
- 20:50Speaker 1: Kind of knew that was going to be there, But
- 20:52Speaker 1: I don't know what hard Grave, Banks and Musgrave were
- 20:54Speaker 1: dealing with. Although Banks and Musgrave were not in the
- 20:58Speaker 1: OTAs and stuff, they didn't play.
- 20:59Speaker 3: Yeah and that stuff. Man, that's the one with Aaron Banks.
- 21:03Speaker 4: Now.
- 21:03Speaker 2: Javon Hardgrave, he's a vet, he's thirty some years old.
- 21:06Speaker 2: I'm okay with figuring out how long it's gonna be
- 21:09Speaker 2: for him to be able to ramp up. But Aaron
- 21:14Speaker 2: Banks last year started camp by having a back injury
- 21:19Speaker 2: right before he got into pads and then missing the
- 21:21Speaker 2: first couple of days of pads, and it just felt
- 21:23Speaker 2: like it started an avalanche of injuries that he was
- 21:26Speaker 2: not able to get back from. And for this to
- 21:28Speaker 2: be the way you start year two where you already
- 21:31Speaker 2: knew that there were gonna be questions, but now I
- 21:33Speaker 2: think there might be some solutions over there at left
- 21:35Speaker 2: guard make you feel a little bit more comfortable. That's
- 21:38Speaker 2: that's a high priced player that has been already in
- 21:41Speaker 2: the crosses hairs in his first year plus drew in
- 21:44Speaker 2: Green Bay, and this is not the way to put
- 21:47Speaker 2: a little stamp on year number two and make the.
- 21:50Speaker 3: Club and the tub.
- 21:51Speaker 1: You can't ingratiate yourself with the fan base if you're
- 21:53Speaker 1: not available to play now. I don't know how the
- 21:55Speaker 1: pup maschinations work. I know that if you're on it,
- 21:59Speaker 1: you can't prack this right. You can you work out
- 22:02Speaker 1: and like do some rehab stuff, but you can't practice
- 22:06Speaker 1: on the pup list now.
- 22:08Speaker 3: And I know that they got they got in yesterday.
- 22:10Speaker 3: Injured guys got in.
- 22:11Speaker 1: They get in early and get their physicals, and that's
- 22:13Speaker 1: why we got the declarations. Chris Brooks on the non
- 22:16Speaker 1: football injury list that was a surprise. I don't know
- 22:18Speaker 1: what that happened there. I guess it'll be addressed today
- 22:21Speaker 1: with Gudy and tomorrow.
- 22:22Speaker 3: I assume very quickly there at ninety well Goody and
- 22:25Speaker 3: the floor meeting with media tomorrow.
- 22:27Speaker 1: But then Michaeh Parsons will join the pup list Tuesday.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Why didn't he go on on Monday? Did he not
- 22:32Speaker 1: travel to Green Bay and get a physically yet or like?
- 22:34Speaker 1: What is the I don't know what the delay is right?
- 22:37Speaker 1: Why he was special?
- 22:39Speaker 2: There was a timing mechanism thing, and our friend Aaron
- 22:43Speaker 2: Nagler was on it right away and expected it to
- 22:47Speaker 2: be Now I still don't necessarily know. As he said,
- 22:49Speaker 2: an interesting emission. But vets, don't you officially report until tomorrow?
- 22:53Speaker 3: So I thought injured guys had a report earlier. I
- 22:55Speaker 3: would have thought so.
- 22:56Speaker 2: Rob Deumovski doubled it up with he'll be placed on
- 22:58Speaker 2: the publists most likely tomorrow.
- 23:00Speaker 3: Told it was a procedure timing thing. Just needs to
- 23:02Speaker 3: be on the.
- 23:03Speaker 2: Reserve list before the first training camp practice on Wednesday.
- 23:07Speaker 3: Then he'll go on the pup list.
- 23:09Speaker 2: So OK, maybe that's how it won't count towards active
- 23:14Speaker 2: bodies before a certain number of days onto the list,
- 23:18Speaker 2: but whenever Parsons gets put on there at least feels
- 23:22Speaker 2: a little bit better.
- 23:23Speaker 3: He had a sweet post.
- 23:24Speaker 2: Yesterday on his ig Drew of getting himself prepared and
- 23:27Speaker 2: ready to go and lock in inside of lambeau Field.
- 23:32Speaker 2: That that's sweet and new complex to work out at
- 23:34Speaker 2: because they've got a lot of options and a lot
- 23:37Speaker 2: of opportunities to improve him, most importantly being healthy in
- 23:42Speaker 2: the stretch run of games the easiest one. But they
- 23:45Speaker 2: got a lot of bodies that are gonna need a
- 23:48Speaker 2: lot of reps here early on in camp. And it
- 23:50Speaker 2: might not be the worst thing. You always want your
- 23:53Speaker 2: best players on the field, but might not be the
- 23:55Speaker 2: worst thing that Michael Parson gonna take some of this
- 23:58Speaker 2: camp off and allow for the full on Brenton Cox,
- 24:01Speaker 2: Baron Surrell, everybody else, Colin Oliver and company to develop
- 24:05Speaker 2: behind and identis Sutton because you gotta figure out who's
- 24:08Speaker 2: gonna not only beyond the on the team, but Drew,
- 24:11Speaker 2: that guy's gonna play those third and fourth edge rushers play,
- 24:14Speaker 2: and there's a there's some legitimate battles for snaps right there.
- 24:18Speaker 1: They do and that's that's something that we're gonna It's
- 24:20Speaker 1: gonna be fun to watch because it's the Jonathan Gannon
- 24:23Speaker 1: era m with his difference. Yes, you've got to see
- 24:26Speaker 1: how they're deployed and what his philosophy is on giving
- 24:30Speaker 1: guys breathers. And you know when they play it's not
- 24:33Speaker 1: you know, I guess it's one of those things they go,
- 24:35Speaker 1: what plays are you in for? Yes, you know, well,
- 24:38Speaker 1: people joke of the you don't take plays off? Well,
- 24:40Speaker 1: that's that's a bold face line.
- 24:42Speaker 2: You have to ta you probably have to take at
- 24:43Speaker 2: least a couple off, even if you are one of
- 24:46Speaker 2: the highest usage guys uh in the league. Parsons didn't
- 24:49Speaker 2: like how much they took him off the field a
- 24:51Speaker 2: year ago. I don't necessarily know if that was as
- 24:54Speaker 2: much a Jeff Haffley thing a couple of years.
- 24:58Speaker 3: Before it was a Joe Barry thing.
- 25:00Speaker 2: The snap usage and the percentage of plays on the
- 25:02Speaker 2: field for some of their best guys like Rashan Gary
- 25:04Speaker 2: would be for.
- 25:05Speaker 3: A long time that a lot. Yeah, but you.
- 25:08Speaker 2: Know, Parsons said it a bunch last Year's like, I
- 25:10Speaker 2: don't like how much I'm coming off the field. I
- 25:11Speaker 2: wonder if that would be difference or if that's just
- 25:14Speaker 2: a Matt Lafleur model Drew more than one of the coordinators.
- 25:19Speaker 2: He's like, no, I have a belief system as to
- 25:22Speaker 2: you get seventy percent of the plays and we want
- 25:24Speaker 2: you at your absolute peak for those and we'll find
- 25:27Speaker 2: somebody else for the other thirty.
- 25:28Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna be interesting to watch shakeout.
- 25:32Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 25:32Speaker 4: Their strategy always seems to be optimizing those guys, or
- 25:34Speaker 4: at least what they believe that can be their ability
- 25:36Speaker 4: by rotating him in keeping him fresh.
- 25:39Speaker 3: But you know, when you have a field tilt, are
- 25:40Speaker 3: like Micah, you know you do?
- 25:42Speaker 4: You do feel probably inclined to get him on the
- 25:44Speaker 4: field morning if he wants to, you know, because the
- 25:47Speaker 4: other thing is, you know, nothing has promised injury raids
- 25:49Speaker 4: one hundred percent in this thing, so you want guys
- 25:51Speaker 4: to play while they can.
- 25:52Speaker 1: Right now, of these guys, Micah Parsons will miss the
- 25:56Speaker 1: first four games, right, that's pretty much a foe gone conclusion.
- 25:59Speaker 2: Absolutely, if not, if not more, I think it's probably
- 26:01Speaker 2: closer to six eight. But yeah, I think I got
- 26:05Speaker 2: it circled right around the New England game is when
- 26:08Speaker 2: he returns.
- 26:09Speaker 3: We had thought it would be like Dallas and Chicago. Yeah,
- 26:11Speaker 3: I think that's that's gonna be a tough one, all right.
- 26:13Speaker 1: Well then the other guys though, and like Musgraves fighting
- 26:17Speaker 1: for his job as professional life.
- 26:20Speaker 2: Right, this is this is the year as a former
- 26:22Speaker 2: second round pick as to how long you're gonna be
- 26:24Speaker 2: able to be in here.
- 26:25Speaker 1: When DeVante Wyatt gets the bag and he's available, that's
- 26:29Speaker 1: a good sign to me, right.
- 26:31Speaker 3: Very much.
- 26:31Speaker 2: So, Yeah, no doubt he would think maybe they would.
- 26:33Speaker 2: They had an idea he was gonna be ready to roll.
- 26:36Speaker 2: They had an idea, and he was ultra productive in
- 26:40Speaker 2: the times that he was on the field. Again, Now
- 26:41Speaker 2: the tough thing is Drew. With all the contracts that
- 26:44Speaker 2: they doled out, Tucker Craft is going to get one.
- 26:47Speaker 3: We don't exactly know when.
- 26:48Speaker 2: I would assume first couple of weeks of camp not
- 26:52Speaker 2: a bad thing to have hold one of those into
- 26:54Speaker 2: the holster, Drew and and get a little more rale
- 26:55Speaker 2: boosts there about two and a half weeks before into camp.
- 26:58Speaker 2: Get get the tired legs loosened up, Tucker, bring everybody
- 27:02Speaker 2: to dinner once that direct deposit hits. But you have
- 27:07Speaker 2: locked up a lot of players that are all on
- 27:08Speaker 2: the NFL all went healthy team, right, like Christian Watson
- 27:14Speaker 2: his first team all went healthy, Jayden Reid a year ago,
- 27:17Speaker 2: but the numbers that he's put up would put him
- 27:20Speaker 2: into that category too. And Devonte Wide on the defensive side,
- 27:22Speaker 2: especially last year, really came into his own but then missed,
- 27:26Speaker 2: you know, seven to eight games with an injury that
- 27:29Speaker 2: is so freakish they're in Detroit that it's not like
- 27:32Speaker 2: you can put something any kind of label on him
- 27:35Speaker 2: for but that he was extremely competitive, went on the
- 27:39Speaker 2: field and next to Parsons, and he was also one
- 27:42Speaker 2: of the guys that Mike could continue to discuss throughout
- 27:44Speaker 2: the year of this guy's a game changer. When he's
- 27:46Speaker 2: on the field, we are a much different team. And
- 27:50Speaker 2: I think next to Javon Hargrave was That's why is
- 27:54Speaker 2: if Hardgrave we don't get positive news on Drew within
- 27:57Speaker 2: the next two weeks, I'll start to get more concerned.
- 28:00Speaker 2: But thirty plus years old, those old older legs, new system, Let's.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Get all the education on it.
- 28:06Speaker 2: Then we'll hit the grass and make sure Javon Hargray
- 28:09Speaker 2: is ready for not only the full season, but the
- 28:11Speaker 2: stretch run so well. We got some time to ramp
- 28:13Speaker 2: him up. But if I don't get better news here
- 28:15Speaker 2: in the next couple of weeks, then I'll start to
- 28:16Speaker 2: get a little bit to get concerned.
- 28:18Speaker 1: Eight seven, seven, seven, nine, four ninety seven three five
- 28:20Speaker 1: o'clock clubbers checking in, Janny and Appleton, Come on now,
- 28:24Speaker 1: get some good news. Uh, we are so lucky. My
- 28:28Speaker 1: major damage just about a mile from us. No power
- 28:30Speaker 1: since noon yesterday. But in the big scheme of things,
- 28:33Speaker 1: that's not as bad as it could be. Listened to
- 28:34Speaker 1: the crew on the radio made it through the night
- 28:36Speaker 1: without ac.
- 28:37Speaker 3: Good to hear you in Apple.
- 28:39Speaker 4: Good to hear you're okay, and hopefully hopefully getting through
- 28:42Speaker 4: it to Troy I know on the YouTube comments said
- 28:45Speaker 4: talking about Minasha, I think he's up there. The football
- 28:47Speaker 4: stadium got half the bleachers taking out millions.
- 28:49Speaker 3: Of millions of damage. Looks like a movie seen here.
- 28:51Speaker 1: From the nine Towoh morning, boys, I had a near
- 28:53Speaker 1: miss with tornado. I fill vending machines left Apples in
- 28:56Speaker 1: fifteen minutes before the tornado. Had to shelter in place
- 28:58Speaker 1: with the employees at my next stop. They lost power.
- 29:01Speaker 1: Scary stuff. Hmmm, very scary when it comes upon you quick. Indeed, Yeah,
- 29:05Speaker 1: that can be very harowing thing. A lot of people
- 29:08Speaker 1: went through that last.
- 29:09Speaker 2: Boy read hot Tim nodas Hunerd in the basement while
- 29:11Speaker 2: working in ripping. Those guys were a nasty color of green.
- 29:14Speaker 3: Yeah, it was.
- 29:15Speaker 1: It was just a pecarious sky blue collar club checking in.
- 29:18Speaker 1: Ryan excited to get back to hearing the floor and
- 29:20Speaker 1: Goody tell us absolutely nothing at their pressers.
- 29:22Speaker 3: Hey football is back, baby, let's go now.
- 29:25Speaker 4: It was the It was the the shareholders meeting.
- 29:28Speaker 3: It wasn't quite you know, the same, you know.
- 29:31Speaker 4: And that was the thing too, with the with the
- 29:32Speaker 4: weather you're worried about the everyone gathering Lambeau for a
- 29:35Speaker 4: little bit. That was a scary situation. But the shareholders meeting,
- 29:39Speaker 4: I don't know if anybody was there yesterday. That was
- 29:41Speaker 4: That's always sort of a rite of passage for.
- 29:43Speaker 3: A lot of hair was covered.
- 29:45Speaker 2: First first thing, first thing, a camp yeah, and and
- 29:47Speaker 2: the other you know, the media starts with me thing, Drew.
- 29:52Speaker 3: I'm very interested to see.
- 29:54Speaker 2: Well Matt Lafleur used that super sweet brand new media
- 29:58Speaker 2: auditorium for the press of availability before the games. I
- 30:03Speaker 2: or mini camp. He was doing it outside right by
- 30:06Speaker 2: the practice field.
- 30:07Speaker 3: And I know the the gaggle.
- 30:08Speaker 2: Of reporters would not appreciate the outdoor event as much
- 30:13Speaker 2: as probably the coach would. But you can keep it
- 30:15Speaker 2: a little bit, keep it a little bit shorter, keep
- 30:17Speaker 2: it a little quicker, and then get yourself right onto
- 30:19Speaker 2: the grass.
- 30:19Speaker 1: I think the first one will be in the auditorium.
- 30:21Speaker 1: The subsequent ones might.
- 30:23Speaker 2: Be I think I was gonna say, I I think
- 30:26Speaker 2: I think the welcome everybody, look at our sweet new spot.
- 30:29Speaker 2: Look at all this sweet new stuff. By the way,
- 30:31Speaker 2: you're not seeing it for the next couple of weeks.
- 30:32Speaker 2: We're going to go outside.
- 30:33Speaker 3: Yeah, I would think that's the way to That's my
- 30:36Speaker 3: money is on.
- 30:37Speaker 2: That is the new uh is the new cliche of
- 30:39Speaker 2: all cliches in the NFL or or buzz terms. You know,
- 30:43Speaker 2: alignment in college athletics. I think that's the number one
- 30:46Speaker 2: we gotta have. Alignment on the grass is a pretty
- 30:50Speaker 2: hot one in the NFL. When you get to the
- 30:51Speaker 2: training camp. We got to see what he looks like
- 30:53Speaker 2: on the grass.
- 30:54Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 30:54Speaker 2: No, once we get on the grass, we'll really understand.
- 30:56Speaker 2: You know, you can't we we don't necessarily until we're on.
- 30:59Speaker 3: The grass minutes with pads. Yes, well, once we get
- 31:02Speaker 3: the pads on.
- 31:03Speaker 1: Then we can really because we don't really do much
- 31:05Speaker 1: hitting and stuff. Well, once we get to the exhibition
- 31:07Speaker 1: games and.
- 31:07Speaker 3: Right end up moving the goal post and then well
- 31:11Speaker 3: it's just preseason.
- 31:12Speaker 1: Then we get to absolutely we will have our all
- 31:16Speaker 1: night a team right all the all practice.
- 31:19Speaker 2: Man, there'll be a lot of Rainchi all stars that
- 31:21Speaker 2: start firing up, and I can't wait to.
- 31:23Speaker 3: Be talking about them. Oh my gosh, I can't.

- 31:45Speaker 1: in with us. Uh, if you listen to the program
- 31:48Speaker 1: in that area of the state, we're thinking of you.
- 31:50Speaker 1: I mean the Trats and I had assuming the game
- 31:53Speaker 1: is on, I'm assuming.
- 31:54Speaker 3: I don't know. They haven't tweeted anything yet.
- 31:56Speaker 1: I haven't seen anything about that, and like mile of
- 31:58Speaker 1: music and all the stuff that we love up and Appleton.
- 32:00Speaker 1: I know that Nags tweeted out that Jim's bar had
- 32:03Speaker 1: electricity and cold beer.
- 32:04Speaker 2: So that's a winner right there, that's a winner right there.
- 32:07Speaker 2: Mozelman coming up, I think on Saturday.
- 32:09Speaker 1: Night, right, that's right, so we will uh we will
- 32:13Speaker 1: soldier on today.

- 32:48Speaker 3: Ment Health dot Com.
- 32:51Speaker 1: Packers had their shareholders meeting yesterday amidst the before the storm.
- 32:55Speaker 3: Or you know, yeah.
- 32:57Speaker 2: I think actually they it was just able to clear
- 33:00Speaker 2: just in time for them to be able to hit
- 33:02Speaker 2: the field for Wow, that sweet finance report coming in
- 33:06Speaker 2: from ED policy.
- 33:06Speaker 1: Headlines I saw at Policy Now the numbers had leaked
- 33:10Speaker 1: earlier and stuff from the fiscal report and all that,
- 33:14Speaker 1: but the headlines I saw at Policy reiterating they will
- 33:18Speaker 1: never take.
- 33:18Speaker 3: The naming rights. I like that one. It was amazing. Yeah,
- 33:21Speaker 3: that's a big moment. Name journals and naming rights.
- 33:24Speaker 4: The batter standing the gates, no problem, actual field sidewalks,
- 33:30Speaker 4: I don't care.
- 33:30Speaker 1: And we also hear that Bob Harlan's name will take
- 33:33Speaker 1: its place up next to Ted Thompson's.
- 33:35Speaker 2: Beautiful thing coming up on that Carolina Thursday night came
- 33:38Speaker 2: that is going to be phenomenal.
- 33:40Speaker 3: Phenomenal, we have no question and the impact he had
- 33:44Speaker 3: on the organization.
- 33:46Speaker 2: And I do like the the statement a couple of times.
- 33:48Speaker 2: I don't know if it was in front of the
- 33:50Speaker 2: fans or if it was more talking to some reporters,
- 33:52Speaker 2: but reiterating something that you know, he told you guys
- 33:55Speaker 2: when you were up there that when he first got
- 33:57Speaker 2: the job. One of the other things is going to
- 33:59Speaker 2: be the multiple revenue streams that you can get. He
- 34:01Speaker 2: talked with Nags and Banky as well on Packers transplants
- 34:08Speaker 2: of we can find multiple concerts.
- 34:10Speaker 3: We don't have to do.
- 34:11Speaker 2: This one thing a year deal anymore. Some soccer match
- 34:15Speaker 2: is going to be a thing college football games, and
- 34:17Speaker 2: you can really increase the revenue. Their field is so
- 34:21Speaker 2: superb that I believe it can handle one to two more.
- 34:24Speaker 2: I mean, it's not gonna be Jerry Jones in AT
- 34:26Speaker 2: and T Stadium where they're playing four games a weekend
- 34:29Speaker 2: on there, but you can add in some more revenue
- 34:32Speaker 2: by letting it be the.
- 34:33Speaker 3: Destination that people know it is no question. I mean, well,
- 34:36Speaker 3: starting this year with the Badgers in Notre Dame.
- 34:38Speaker 2: Mm hmm, it's like six years overdue, but it's finally happening.
- 34:42Speaker 3: Finally one of those nails.
- 34:43Speaker 1: That's gonna be pretty sweet. Also, and this was interesting.
- 34:47Speaker 1: Packer's going to be like I haven't been on Hard Knocks,
- 34:49Speaker 1: but they're gonna be a documentary with Omaha Productions.
- 34:52Speaker 3: Excited for that, very excited. What's that going to look like?
- 34:58Speaker 3: I wonder it's a great question.
- 34:59Speaker 4: I mean, the Peyton Manning style ones, the Omaha ones
- 35:02Speaker 4: have been in kind of a unique style, So I'm
- 35:05Speaker 4: kind of curious to see what they focus on with
- 35:07Speaker 4: how they kind of go about, you know, telling the
- 35:09Speaker 4: story and things like that. Will it be just about
- 35:12Speaker 4: this team in overview? I'm curious about that. I think
- 35:14Speaker 4: it'll be fun. But any any Billy knows this too,
- 35:17Speaker 4: and we're suckers for it. Any sort of packers content
- 35:20Speaker 4: like that, I will absorb and eat up. Anything that's
- 35:22Speaker 4: directed and produced by Peyton Manning is gonna be really good.
- 35:26Speaker 3: Absolutely.
- 35:26Speaker 2: I mean he's like from the television standpoint, everything he
- 35:30Speaker 2: has touched has turned pretty damn gold. And like the
- 35:34Speaker 2: Quarterback series I think has been really really good tight
- 35:37Speaker 2: end wide receiver. He was at the forefront starting that
- 35:39Speaker 2: with Omaha Productions. I would I would expect it to
- 35:43Speaker 2: be more of like a long standing thing because it
- 35:46Speaker 2: was a couple of years ago, if I'm not mistaken,
- 35:49Speaker 2: at training camp when he was walking down the bike trail.
- 35:53Speaker 2: That was two summers ago, If I'm not mistaken, that
- 35:55Speaker 2: was I believe when they were locking in to be
- 35:58Speaker 2: able to do the documentary.
- 36:00Speaker 3: So years of production.
- 36:01Speaker 4: You're saying, Billy, an overview kind of thing with long
- 36:03Speaker 4: range look at Green Bay.
- 36:05Speaker 2: Is that what you're ye Oh, that's what I'm thinking. Yeah,
- 36:09Speaker 2: it'd be pretty cool. I think it's gonna be to
- 36:11Speaker 2: be a long term project. I think it's gonna be
- 36:13Speaker 2: pretty sweet though. I mean they have his company has
- 36:16Speaker 2: done some pretty magical things in the sports media landscape.
- 36:20Speaker 2: And it's not Untold, which will be definitely worth your
- 36:24Speaker 2: while watch.
- 36:24Speaker 4: As long as it's not Netflix Untold. Indeed, you know,
- 36:27Speaker 4: the idea that things like that are hard knocks, we're
- 36:30Speaker 4: serving as a distraction. I think we're moving past the
- 36:32Speaker 4: reality that you can avoid those things. I mean, there's
- 36:35Speaker 4: gonna be content being shot everywhere at all times now,
- 36:38Speaker 4: and when it comes to sports, if it's not hard knocks,
- 36:40Speaker 4: it'll be something like this, or teams are doing their
- 36:43Speaker 4: own content shooting as it is.
- 36:45Speaker 3: You know.
- 36:45Speaker 4: I think once upon a time the teams are trying
- 36:47Speaker 4: to avoid hard knocks and things like that because they're like, oh,
- 36:50Speaker 4: we don't want the distraction during camp. I think the
- 36:52Speaker 4: reality is that's just gonna be part of sports everywhere.
- 36:55Speaker 4: So I think we're kind of moving past that as
- 36:57Speaker 4: a as a culture.
- 36:59Speaker 1: So this is, uh, this is a doc about like
- 37:03Speaker 1: the history and stuff of the book. So it's the
- 37:04Speaker 1: all encompassing which is okay. So, but I still want
- 37:08Speaker 1: to see some behind the scenes stuff. I wonder what
- 37:10Speaker 1: the packers have in the archives of stuff that we've
- 37:13Speaker 1: never seen.
- 37:15Speaker 4: Well, the closest thing we got was that when they
- 37:17Speaker 4: produced the during was it during COVID the kind of
- 37:19Speaker 4: decades documentary that they produced.
- 37:22Speaker 3: You know, Cliff's book basically is the Bible.
- 37:25Speaker 2: I was gonna say, that'll be three volume everything there
- 37:28Speaker 2: is to ever know about it.
- 37:30Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good question.
- 37:31Speaker 2: Drew, because I would I would believe there's some stuff
- 37:34Speaker 2: that you would you would think you would think is
- 37:37Speaker 2: pretty uh surprising. But to Armand's point, everything is so
- 37:41Speaker 2: digitized now, there's so much that we have access to
- 37:45Speaker 2: that it's hard to think that there's a ton that
- 37:47Speaker 2: we don't. That being said, then all of a sudden,
- 37:49Speaker 2: I find a guy on YouTube that's got all the
- 37:51Speaker 2: radio calls in the ninety six season. Yeah, overlaid with
- 37:56Speaker 2: the TV calls. There's always a chance for more content.
- 37:58Speaker 2: I mean, people are always going to find a way
- 38:00Speaker 2: to throw some more content out there, and this one
- 38:03Speaker 2: would be one manning though to me, there's gonna be
- 38:08Speaker 2: a decent amount of Jordan love. But this seems like history.
- 38:11Speaker 2: And then there'll be one piece or one episode. If
- 38:14Speaker 2: this is episonic, which I would six five or six parts,
- 38:18Speaker 2: there will be one full part on all of the
- 38:20Speaker 2: quarterback lineage, at least one part on simply Star far Rogers.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Sixth episode series and like going back to the Lambeau
- 38:29Speaker 1: days and Lombardi could be its own, you know, one
- 38:32Speaker 1: or two and.
- 38:33Speaker 3: I'd be down if Peyton just narrated it. Now I
- 38:35Speaker 3: don't think he will.
- 38:36Speaker 2: I think they'll find him maybe maybe Kevin Harlan very
- 38:38Speaker 2: well care Larry, who knows. But I would be okay
- 38:42Speaker 2: even if Peyton did it. That would be that's gonna
- 38:44Speaker 2: be very very fun to be able to.
- 38:45Speaker 4: Is he gonna do like a tourists walking around some
- 38:47Speaker 4: of the houses around Lambeau, going to some of those
- 38:49Speaker 4: packer houses, or they're gonna go to Vince Lombardi's old house,
- 38:52Speaker 4: go in the basement.
- 38:53Speaker 3: Where his bar was. They did that with Farv. Like,
- 38:56Speaker 3: I wonder if he's.
- 38:57Speaker 4: Gonna do that whole bit where he's going to some parties,
- 39:00Speaker 4: packer games, some tailgates.
- 39:02Speaker 3: I could see him doing some stuff like that.
- 39:03Speaker 2: But see, it doesn't seem really like it's the Peyton's
- 39:06Speaker 2: Places thing like you're describing, which they've done now three
- 39:09Speaker 2: or four seasons of Now this is gonna be this
- 39:11Speaker 2: is gonna be a story of the Green Bay Packers.
- 39:13Speaker 2: It's gonna be really really cool. Yeah, I'm I have
- 39:16Speaker 2: high hopes and higher revenue, more revenue stream.
- 39:19Speaker 3: Yeah, that's gonna Yeah.
- 39:21Speaker 1: But the behind the scenes stuff like uh, wet the whistle,
- 39:23Speaker 1: because again there was stuff with Uke that I've never seen,
- 39:26Speaker 1: and like the right in the Uker documentary, which I
- 39:29Speaker 1: highly recommend as well. People see it like out in theaters. Uh,
- 39:32Speaker 1: check your local listings and go see it.
- 39:34Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean, Drew, if you didn't, if you
- 39:36Speaker 2: had some stuff that you hadn't seen. I mean when
- 39:38Speaker 2: Jeff and Lane were like, I'm surprised with some of
- 39:41Speaker 2: the stuff that they even had.
- 39:42Speaker 3: In there while they were in the room.
- 39:45Speaker 2: Yeah, that's uh, that is one to know they they've
- 39:47Speaker 2: got some stuff that's gonna be pretty pretty cool to
- 39:50Speaker 2: be able to see as a Packers fan.
- 39:52Speaker 1: I was told that the first edit of the film
- 39:54Speaker 1: was six hours.
- 39:55Speaker 3: Let's see, it had cut They cut it down to
- 39:58Speaker 3: ninety minutes.
- 39:58Speaker 2: Can't even imagine what they lef asking me an intense
- 40:01Speaker 2: ninety minutes to witness today.
- 40:03Speaker 3: I think I'm going this morning, right after the show,
- 40:05Speaker 3: So I'm excited.
- 40:06Speaker 2: A ten ten forty. That's not a nap time. That
- 40:09Speaker 2: is a viewing, viewing time. You're gonna love it. You're
- 40:11Speaker 2: gonna love it all right.
- 40:12Speaker 1: Eight seven seven, seven nine four one ninety seven. We're
- 40:14Speaker 1: gonna do some buying and selling.
