- 3:11Speaker 4: All right, So we've been talking about Giannis is still
- 3:14Speaker 4: a buck. The trade deadline is today at two o'clock.
- 3:16Speaker 4: We think He's still going to be a Buck. Jimo'sarski
- 3:17Speaker 4: joins us at seven thirty. Bucks have won two in
- 3:20Speaker 4: a row, looking for.
- 3:21Speaker 7: Three, dude like that, and it comes against the Pacers
- 3:23Speaker 7: coming up the chance to get three in a row.
- 3:25Speaker 1: We're getting that win.
- 3:26Speaker 4: I mean, we're getting that Super Bowl getting ready. We'll
- 3:29Speaker 4: we'll talk a little bit about that. Packers had their
- 3:31Speaker 4: press conference. Brian good cons met with the media yesterday
- 3:33Speaker 4: and amidst the backdrop of the Packers and the you know,
- 3:38Speaker 4: the new coordinators on again and the fact that they're
- 3:41Speaker 4: all they're kind of running it back.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Pisachi still has a job. Oh yeah, we got that.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Did you see the Zach Cruz tweet yesterday? Oh I
- 3:47Speaker 1: missed that one. Let me hear him.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Uh.
- 3:49Speaker 4: It's just it's a stat and it's kind of incredible.
- 3:52Speaker 4: Regular season wins since the twenty eleven season. New England
- 3:57Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty eight oh yeah, five Super five
- 4:01Speaker 4: Super Bowl appearances, Kansas City one hundred and fifty eight
- 4:05Speaker 4: five Super Bowl appearances. They're tied for first in second place.
- 4:09Speaker 4: Green Bay one hundred and fifty five zero Super Bowl appearances,
- 4:13Speaker 4: Fourth Seattle one fifty four three Super Bowl appearances.
- 4:19Speaker 1: So that was fun.
- 4:21Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's a frustrating. So what does that stat
- 4:24Speaker 4: tell you that the Packers are elite regular season and
- 4:28Speaker 4: dog bleep in the playoffs?
- 4:30Speaker 1: How is that possible? And how is that?
- 4:33Speaker 4: Is this just a confluence of bad luck, bad special teams?
- 4:37Speaker 4: Like what you so goody yesterday? Was that even asked
- 4:40Speaker 4: about it? And they talk about process and they you're
- 4:43Speaker 4: always trying to get better and stuff.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Well, there aren't many teams better in.
- 4:46Speaker 4: Terms of the regular season, and yet when the games
- 4:50Speaker 4: count the most, Well, again, what what have happened last year?
- 4:53Speaker 4: If Michael Parsons had been healthy? What it would have been?
- 4:56Speaker 4: All the what ifs? What if Brandon Bostik had hung
- 4:58Speaker 4: onto a ball?
- 4:59Speaker 1: What if that? What if that?
- 5:00Speaker 4: There's all these what ifs that haunt But isn't it
- 5:02Speaker 4: almost freakish.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Events?
- 5:05Speaker 4: Yes, it's almost. It's it's stunning. It's stunning that everybody
- 5:09Speaker 4: else has been to multiple Super Bowls in their neighborhood
- 5:12Speaker 4: of regular season success and they're not there. Yeah, but
- 5:15Speaker 4: then you also go back in, as Arman likes to
- 5:17Speaker 4: say very astutely on this show, it's fun.
- 5:19Speaker 1: To watch all games.
- 5:20Speaker 7: Sometimes I don't think we go back and watch the
- 5:23Speaker 7: ones that are painful to relive, because you only want
- 5:26Speaker 7: to live in the happiness. There's pretty clear indications as
- 5:30Speaker 7: to why they lost a lot of those games, and
- 5:31Speaker 7: I think very absolutely so twenty fourteen and twenty twenty
- 5:36Speaker 7: one will get pinned to special teams. Those are not
- 5:39Speaker 7: the reasons why they don't win a game. When you
- 5:41Speaker 7: pick off Tom Brady three times, that's because the red
- 5:44Speaker 7: zone inefficiency and your own costly turnovers by some of
- 5:48Speaker 7: your favorite players, or not getting more yards in twenty
- 5:51Speaker 7: twenty one by Aaron Jones, not running out about like
- 5:54Speaker 7: there's there's so many individual instances where you can point
- 5:58Speaker 7: to a couple of plays.
- 5:58Speaker 1: A lot of these get a few plays.
- 6:01Speaker 7: But and I hate to say it this way because
- 6:04Speaker 7: I know there's gonna be some people that feel like
- 6:06Speaker 7: I'm just dunking on an individual that's not gonna respond,
- 6:08Speaker 7: not going to return it. But when you look at
- 6:11Speaker 7: the games that they've lost, they have not been in
- 6:15Speaker 7: a lot of those instances, drew better at the most
- 6:17Speaker 7: important position, and going into so many of those games
- 6:21Speaker 7: they had the better quarterback, and in the ones in
- 6:23Speaker 7: which they get bounced out of very rarely do they
- 6:27Speaker 7: does their quarterback out play the quarterback on the other side,
- 6:31Speaker 7: similar to what you would watch from Josh Allen against Denver.
- 6:35Speaker 7: I'm not saying Aaron Rodgers had a bunch of four
- 6:37Speaker 7: turnover playoff games.
- 6:38Speaker 1: That's the thing. He didn't turn the ball over like
- 6:39Speaker 1: that like Josh Allen did. But you're saying he didn't
- 6:42Speaker 1: rise to army.
- 6:43Speaker 4: He's got multiple games, especially when they get bounced out,
- 6:45Speaker 4: where he's got two to three to four turnovers, And
- 6:48Speaker 4: when you don't turn the ball over all year long,
- 6:50Speaker 4: you don't know how to play that way.
- 6:52Speaker 1: In Seattle he throws two picks. Right.
- 6:55Speaker 7: In San Francisco, he turns the ball over twice. Right
- 6:58Speaker 7: in Atlanta, turns the ball over its wise. Not granted
- 7:00Speaker 7: they were gonna win that Atlanta game because they were
- 7:02Speaker 7: never gonna.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Stop Uleo Jones.
- 7:03Speaker 7: But like there's they turn the ball over against against
- 7:07Speaker 7: San Francisco in twenty one, they turn the ball over
- 7:09Speaker 7: and don't get to convert against the Buccaneers, like they
- 7:13Speaker 7: needed to be better at the most important spot, and
- 7:16Speaker 7: they asked so much of the quarterback that he had
- 7:18Speaker 7: to far and away outperform the other spot, and they
- 7:21Speaker 7: never were able to really do that to get home
- 7:23Speaker 7: in that fifteen years.
- 7:24Speaker 1: But it's such an outlier.
- 7:26Speaker 4: No team in a fifteen years stretch has won more
- 7:30Speaker 4: games without making its Yes, and that was like it's
- 7:33Speaker 4: historically bad luck, but its process is not flawed. Now
- 7:38Speaker 4: Here comes with the chorus of people who are gonna say,
- 7:41Speaker 4: like the Cowboys, they're gonna lump them in and they're
- 7:43Speaker 4: gonna get They're gonna say, well, the pack as long
- 7:45Speaker 4: as they make money, they don't care. And I think
- 7:47Speaker 4: that's just that's silly.
- 7:49Speaker 1: That's silly. They're gonna make money the wayn't.
- 7:50Speaker 4: Care and they're not just killing themselves like you make more.
- 7:52Speaker 4: They care about the sledding hill. That's what they want
- 7:54Speaker 4: to win.
- 7:55Speaker 3: That's the most important because they're gonna make money in
- 7:57Speaker 3: their way. Yeah, and I thought about this aspect. I
- 8:00Speaker 3: think you know, yes, Billy, there are football reasons you
- 8:02Speaker 3: do it that those things happen, But why did those
- 8:05Speaker 3: things happen to us at those times? Like the process
- 8:08Speaker 3: to your point, Billy, or to drew the team, the
- 8:11Speaker 3: team and the players and the personnel should have been
- 8:13Speaker 3: good enough. But the variance as in individual results in games.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Has seemed to be been on the bad side for
- 8:20Speaker 3: the Packers in these playoffs, and it's a little unfortunate.
- 8:24Speaker 1: When you look at it like that.
- 8:24Speaker 3: I thought about that after the Pats won the AFC
- 8:27Speaker 3: Championship and I tweeted this, which got some back less.
- 8:30Speaker 3: This is ten days ago I tweeted this. I said,
- 8:32Speaker 3: I can't believe this, Pats seems actually going to go
- 8:33Speaker 3: to the super Bowl. Why don't we get these breaks?
- 8:35Speaker 3: Why don't we get more going our way? Packers fans
- 8:37Speaker 3: deserve them. Billy loves this. Packers nation deserves more than
- 8:40Speaker 3: all the heartbreak we've endured. We never got to play
- 8:42Speaker 3: stid Him in a title game. And then I went
- 8:44Speaker 3: on to say, everyone keeps talking about.
- 8:46Speaker 1: The football operation. Billy, you brought that point up.
- 8:48Speaker 3: True, there are football reasons these things didn't happen, But
- 8:51Speaker 3: the fans deserve better fortune. Everyone knows that the Packers
- 8:54Speaker 3: deserve better results based on the quality and consistency of
- 8:58Speaker 3: the teams they put together over the last three years,
- 9:00Speaker 3: based on normal result variation. That was my point. Now, Billy,
- 9:04Speaker 3: you to your point. There were football reasons in these games. Fumbles,
- 9:09Speaker 3: not interceptionary, not rising to level play, not making the
- 9:14Speaker 3: important plays. The point is, why did those things happen
- 9:17Speaker 3: to the Packers when going into these games? You should
- 9:19Speaker 3: have had the personnel in that sense, I do believe
- 9:21Speaker 3: there's a level of variation that didn't go the Packers
- 9:25Speaker 3: a way that they should have had better results, at
- 9:27Speaker 3: least a little bit, based on the quality of playoff
- 9:29Speaker 3: teams they had. Whether or not you believe it or
- 9:33Speaker 3: agree that it is fine, but I think that just
- 9:35Speaker 3: I'm talking about the way the fortune for fans. I'm
- 9:38Speaker 3: not saying that the football operation didn't fail.
- 9:40Speaker 1: It did.
- 9:41Speaker 3: Yeah, But as sitting here as the fan is if
- 9:43Speaker 3: you exist many playoff teams, we should have had better results.
- 9:47Speaker 1: It's just we we've been unlucky.
- 9:49Speaker 4: How many times can you be sitting at the table
- 9:52Speaker 4: with a twenty against the dealer having a six and
- 9:56Speaker 4: then they pulls five cards to twenty one and shows
- 9:59Speaker 4: it up here.
- 10:01Speaker 3: I have nothing to do with the way they fumble
- 10:04Speaker 3: or don't fumble, So as a fan, that fortune's just
- 10:07Speaker 3: given to me one way or the other, you know,
- 10:08Speaker 3: but to me.
- 10:09Speaker 4: It also discredits a lot of what's happening on the
- 10:11Speaker 4: other side.
- 10:12Speaker 1: Like in a number of these games as.
- 10:13Speaker 7: Well, like they're significant favorites and end up collapsing. They're
- 10:18Speaker 7: also like seven and a half point dogs, I think
- 10:20Speaker 7: when they go to Seattle, and probably the one.
- 10:22Speaker 4: That should have sent them to a super Bowl super
- 10:24Speaker 4: Bowl ahead of any of them.
- 10:26Speaker 7: But like nineteen, they're not close to that team, that
- 10:29Speaker 7: San Francisco team that runs for almost three hundred on
- 10:31Speaker 7: them in sixteen, they needed four different prayers to be
- 10:35Speaker 7: able to beat that Atlanta's Yeah, I agree with that
- 10:37Speaker 7: Atlanta team.
- 10:38Speaker 3: I don't factor in we were thoroughly beaten by Atlanta
- 10:41Speaker 3: that day.
- 10:41Speaker 1: We were the worst team.
- 10:42Speaker 4: But and again this is the one that I don't
- 10:45Speaker 4: believe that the variations or the numbers or whatever statistic
- 10:50Speaker 4: analytical equation you can put on it as to why
- 10:53Speaker 4: the fair or foul nature of it.
- 10:55Speaker 7: But they also didn't handle success very well in a
- 10:59Speaker 7: lot of those playoff games, right, Like they get two
- 11:01Speaker 7: of the greatest plays in Aaron Rodgers' entire career and
- 11:04Speaker 7: three plays later get eliminated because they don't finish on defense.
- 11:08Speaker 7: Like so there's and that was another game in which
- 11:11Speaker 7: there's significant dogs in so like it's it's trouble, so
- 11:14Speaker 7: it's tough, it is frustrating.
- 11:16Speaker 1: They're very, very close, and they have been.
- 11:17Speaker 7: But I thought Goody did a really good job of
- 11:20Speaker 7: trying to answer the question, because I believe Wildy asked.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Now it was.
- 11:25Speaker 7: Seventeen seconds on the Wildy question. Let's let's give Jason
- 11:27Speaker 7: some credit that that's that's rather succinct. I was gonna
- 11:30Speaker 7: say it's brevity rather, it's a stinct, But it was
- 11:33Speaker 7: also a good question to ask. You know, we've have
- 11:36Speaker 7: all of these games in January and December that have
- 11:39Speaker 7: been close.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Why have you guys not been able to finish in
- 11:41Speaker 1: some of those moments.
- 11:42Speaker 6: Yeah, I think obviously we got to win the games
- 11:45Speaker 6: that matter and the most in December and January. Right,
- 11:47Speaker 6: That's that's kind of been the tail last couple of years.
- 11:50Speaker 6: His team's ready to do that, and we haven't done that,
- 11:53Speaker 6: So that's kind of the next step. So I think,
- 11:57Speaker 6: you know, as you evaluate every season, you're looking at
- 11:59Speaker 6: those things. Certainly, that was the strength of ours prior
- 12:03Speaker 6: to these last couple of years, was how we finished
- 12:05Speaker 6: and we were playing our best football at the end
- 12:06Speaker 6: of the season.
- 12:07Speaker 1: We haven't done that the last two years.
- 12:08Speaker 6: So I think it's a little bit probably getting a
- 12:10Speaker 6: little bit back to basics and just making sure that
- 12:14Speaker 6: you know again that that we're not missing.
- 12:16Speaker 1: Anything in those areas.
- 12:17Speaker 5: But yeah, that's that's what I would say to that.
- 12:21Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, we can win those games. There's no
- 12:24Speaker 5: better way to say it. Yes, that example, right, you.
- 12:27Speaker 7: Got to play better though, Like I don't, I struggle
- 12:30Speaker 7: to hear a lot of the numbers and say like, well,
- 12:33Speaker 7: we're getting bad luck in a lot of these instances.
- 12:35Speaker 7: They also do need to play better in a lot
- 12:36Speaker 7: of what Rogers led game time drives in the fourth
- 12:39Speaker 7: quarter in playoffs in twenty thirteen, fourteen, and fifteen.
- 12:43Speaker 4: And it's like, you're right, so defense special teams just
- 12:46Speaker 4: are they just a choking franchise? Were the bills of
- 12:49Speaker 4: choking franchise? When they lost four straight Super Bowl they got.
- 12:52Speaker 3: But that was the Monica put on them. But they're right.
- 12:54Speaker 3: They did win four NFC championships. Yeah, and in a
- 12:57Speaker 3: lot of those playoff runs, the early ones know they
- 12:59Speaker 3: were the better team. A lot of those playoff runs
- 13:02Speaker 3: they were there were dogs to get through it. I
- 13:04Speaker 3: think especially ninety four they were dogs to get through
- 13:06Speaker 3: the entire AFC so whether or not it was a
- 13:09Speaker 3: weak AFC at the time, a lot of people said that.
- 13:11Speaker 3: I guess it's true, but somebody has to win it,
- 13:13Speaker 3: and they did. They were they were not chokers until
- 13:17Speaker 3: they got to the biggest game and they got beat
- 13:19Speaker 3: every time. So that you're right, they didn't they don't
- 13:23Speaker 3: play well enough in those games, or they don't make
- 13:25Speaker 3: the important plays to do it.
- 13:27Speaker 1: But why don't they?
- 13:28Speaker 3: And that's a different question, and that's an unanswerable question,
- 13:31Speaker 3: I think Unfortunately, it's not something you can really say,
- 13:34Speaker 3: like why don't we play better? We have to do
- 13:36Speaker 3: these things? Yes, well we want to do them. You
- 13:39Speaker 3: intended to do them, we just don't do them.
- 13:40Speaker 4: It's well to simply billy, it's like, well, defense and
- 13:44Speaker 4: special teams as a start, what how how have those Where.
- 13:47Speaker 1: Did those teams rank?
- 13:48Speaker 4: The teams ahead of them, the Chiefs, Patriots, and well
- 13:51Speaker 4: Seattle's tied with the Packers, I guess right, Well, yeah,
- 13:54Speaker 4: but where are they on the special teams rankings historically,
- 13:57Speaker 4: because that's been it's been a kill for the Packers.
- 14:01Speaker 7: Sure, but again, like lost you lost a game at
- 14:03Speaker 7: home on a block punt? Yeah, where you didn't give
- 14:07Speaker 7: up an offensive touchdown.
- 14:08Speaker 1: Yeah, and you scored once. Like so again, I when
- 14:11Speaker 1: when you're.
- 14:12Speaker 7: Built on all, when you're built on offense, you've got
- 14:14Speaker 7: to go score like they scored in the first the
- 14:17Speaker 7: first drive and late and in thirteen fourteen fifteen they
- 14:20Speaker 7: scored twenty.
- 14:21Speaker 1: Points in all those games.
- 14:23Speaker 4: Agree, when you've got an MVP, and that's how your
- 14:26Speaker 4: team is going to be built. So like, I know
- 14:28Speaker 4: that it's it was always easy to be upset when
- 14:31Speaker 4: Joe Berry uh with their defense at the end, also
- 14:34Speaker 4: calling for his firing after the twenty twenty one title game.
- 14:37Speaker 7: Would have been tough because the offense was worse. Was
- 14:41Speaker 7: market was was much worse. So like that, there are Yeah,
- 14:44Speaker 7: you remember the special teams plays, or you can remember
- 14:48Speaker 7: the defensive ones. What you don't remember is not being
- 14:51Speaker 7: able to consistently be at your best and have another
- 14:54Speaker 7: one of those runs from the quarterback spottle from.
- 14:57Speaker 1: The offense that took you home in twenty ten.
- 15:00Speaker 3: Sah of why it didn't happen is really kind of
- 15:01Speaker 3: a problem from hell because you say to yourself, well,
- 15:05Speaker 3: if we weren't good enough to play well enough in
- 15:07Speaker 3: these games, clearly we have flaws in our team. But
- 15:09Speaker 3: if you had, if you were that flawed as a team,
- 15:11Speaker 3: you wouldn't be winning so much consistently in the regular season.
- 15:15Speaker 3: And then it's like, so where do we improve? How
- 15:16Speaker 3: do we improve? How do we figure out how to
- 15:18Speaker 3: win those most important games? And that's the problem there.
- 15:21Speaker 1: And are we to pooh pooh this? Well, they are
- 15:24Speaker 1: bunch of chokers?
- 15:25Speaker 4: And okay, the Lions had this little oasis of you know,
- 15:30Speaker 4: the renaissance if you will, after thirty years. The Packers
- 15:33Speaker 4: have been consistently good for about thirty thirty five years, right, consistently.
- 15:37Speaker 4: The numbers bear that out. Yeah, on the back end
- 15:39Speaker 4: of it, the Lions were horrible and then they got good.
- 15:43Speaker 4: They never got to the promised land. And now you know,
- 15:46Speaker 4: people would think maybe their windows closing or maybe you know,
- 15:48Speaker 4: how old is Chared Goff's not getting any younger? And
- 15:51Speaker 4: will they will they be good again this year? Did
- 15:53Speaker 4: they miss their chance? Should they? Could they? Should they
- 15:56Speaker 4: have gone to two Super Bowls in the last couple
- 15:59Speaker 4: of years.
- 16:00Speaker 7: No, Lions, No, no, because maybe one maybe one, yeah,
- 16:06Speaker 7: maybe the one that.
- 16:07Speaker 1: They had a lead for.
- 16:08Speaker 7: But but again, like I don't know that they had
- 16:10Speaker 7: the better quarterback. I don't think they have the better
- 16:11Speaker 7: team like you, it's we can we can turn the
- 16:15Speaker 7: game off when in the middle of the third quarter
- 16:17Speaker 7: you're up seventeen. But you gotta play, like Doddler said,
- 16:20Speaker 7: Billy's wrong. Matt Lafleur's conservative play calling is what let
- 16:23Speaker 7: teams back.
- 16:24Speaker 4: Into the game, and you can't. He can't coach with
- 16:28Speaker 4: the big lead. He can't coach with the big lead.
- 16:31Speaker 7: Was he the one that was missing blown blocking assignments
- 16:34Speaker 7: up front and forced him to dirt the ball? Like
- 16:37Speaker 7: there's multiple there's plays in which Christian Watson is running
- 16:40Speaker 7: wide open down the field where you're unable to hold up.
- 16:44Speaker 7: So like it is, you can pinpoint it on one
- 16:47Speaker 7: or two different things. But I think all these games
- 16:50Speaker 7: have transpired very very differently. But you ask through twenty
- 16:54Speaker 7: eleven to now, the more consistent one is not being
- 16:59Speaker 7: good enough. If that's the four touchdown game to get eliminated.
- 17:04Speaker 7: You know how many times Aaron Rodgers threw four touchdowns,
- 17:06Speaker 7: no picks and got eliminated in his NFL career zero
- 17:09Speaker 7: times zero, right, Like, because in all of those games
- 17:13Speaker 7: he did not play to the same level that you
- 17:15Speaker 7: had seen him play in so many of the regular
- 17:18Speaker 7: season games that they compiled and won all these games.
- 17:20Speaker 3: Win, right, But it's a personnel standpoint, there would be
- 17:23Speaker 3: no solution.
- 17:24Speaker 1: I mean, you wouldn't start a different quarterback.
- 17:25Speaker 4: But there were also games when there are also games
- 17:27Speaker 4: when Rogers engineered the tying or go ahead drive only
- 17:30Speaker 4: to sit and watch it.
- 17:31Speaker 3: You know the reason they won a lot of games obviously, Yeah,
- 17:35Speaker 3: it goes both ways. Yeah, and the only the only
- 17:37Speaker 3: year the Packers won the Super Bowl, they had a
- 17:39Speaker 3: top ten to DV.
- 17:40Speaker 1: We heard that. And in the NFC Championship game, he didn't.
- 17:42Speaker 3: Play that great either, right, and when they Bears, they
- 17:45Speaker 3: did him play that great?
- 17:46Speaker 1: So they won in spite of them.
- 17:47Speaker 3: So well, yeah, in fact, they could have win ways
- 17:49Speaker 3: in different even if he did quarterback. Yeah, that's true.
- 17:52Speaker 3: And Tom Collins was even worse than and well, and
- 17:55Speaker 3: you can say the same thing with the.
- 17:56Speaker 4: So that would be a fortunate one that when they
- 17:58Speaker 4: played Jared Stidham the year they won the Super Bowl.
- 18:01Speaker 3: Yeah one, I thought Caleb actually played well, even only
- 18:04Speaker 3: through two picks, Caleb An they actually played well.
- 18:06Speaker 1: But that was the one we got. I guess that's
- 18:08Speaker 1: the one we got away. You're right, well, and I
- 18:12Speaker 1: guess you could argue shouldn't happen. That happened.
- 18:15Speaker 4: And Giannis has only one one title in this window
- 18:18Speaker 4: of his m v P and greatness, and he wouldn't
- 18:20Speaker 4: have won it if Kevin Durant's you know foot was
- 18:22Speaker 4: a half size smaller.
- 18:24Speaker 3: Right, So I could argue we should have beat the
- 18:25Speaker 3: Raptors that you were willing to. Well, that's the one,
- 18:28Speaker 3: but they didn't to Billy's.
- 18:30Speaker 4: Three to one on the Raptors. And every opportunity has
- 18:33Speaker 4: to be seized. And but the thing is, by by
- 18:37Speaker 4: winning the second most games and that you give yourself
- 18:40Speaker 4: the opera, you have to take more shots.
- 18:42Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to be in there.
- 18:43Speaker 4: Right, if we're gonna have a thing of like who's
- 18:45Speaker 4: gonna be the who's gonna make Who's gonna make fifty
- 18:49Speaker 4: three pointers?
- 18:50Speaker 1: In our group? Billy, you get fifty shots, arm and
- 18:53Speaker 1: you get seventy five. I get one hundred.
- 18:55Speaker 4: I like my chances of But you know, and I'm
- 18:58Speaker 4: gonna I'm gonna take that every time it's a numbers game. Yeah,
- 19:02Speaker 4: I'm gonna take that every time. And for amazingly the
- 19:06Speaker 4: way the planets have aligned.
- 19:07Speaker 1: It just hasn't worked out for the Packers.
- 19:09Speaker 4: Yeah, they and but I just there's there's different reasons.
- 19:14Speaker 1: For all of them.
- 19:15Speaker 7: And I would definitely add to Drew, I'd prefer to
- 19:19Speaker 7: be in the situation where you're trying to figure out
- 19:20Speaker 7: why they're losing more playoff games they try to figure
- 19:22Speaker 7: out why they can't win more than seven games. Yes, right,
- 19:25Speaker 7: exactly to your point, like this is a much better
- 19:29Speaker 7: problem to have the exactly why are we on our
- 19:31Speaker 7: eighth coach in the.
- 19:32Speaker 4: Last six Being a Packers fan is painful because of
- 19:36Speaker 4: the playoff the kicks to the nads. Right, Is it
- 19:40Speaker 4: more painful than being a Browns fan? No, being a
- 19:42Speaker 4: Raiders fans far worse.
- 19:44Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Yes, I agree with you, but it can
- 19:46Speaker 3: the pain can be different, Like being a Marquette fan
- 19:49Speaker 3: is it's hard to lose in the tournament. But it
- 19:51Speaker 3: was much more fun to be good the last four
- 19:54Speaker 3: years than it is this year. But it's also a
- 19:57Speaker 3: lot less stressful of the pain this year because I I've
- 20:00Speaker 3: already pitched this season to the wool, to the forest
- 20:03Speaker 3: and said, all right, we're gonna be bad. So I'm
- 20:05Speaker 3: not super hanging, living and dying on every result. Now
- 20:09Speaker 3: you're right, though, Billy, you'd much rather not be a
- 20:11Speaker 3: crap team and just be hopeless and not win at
- 20:15Speaker 3: all and have good moments. So every moment does matter
- 20:19Speaker 3: whether or not you win a championship, and that maybe
- 20:21Speaker 3: is the number one thing that's something we can take
- 20:24Speaker 3: from this.
- 20:24Speaker 1: Maximony does matter.
- 20:27Speaker 4: Maximize every moment, as Armand's advice, And in order to
- 20:30Speaker 4: help yourself do that, I recommend you visit my friends

- 21:26Speaker 4: what Goody was talking about, the fact that they're running
- 21:27Speaker 4: it back with Pisacia for us on had that happened,
- 21:32Speaker 4: Had that announcement come in the heat like they gave
- 21:34Speaker 4: it some time and we got the honest thing.
- 21:37Speaker 1: We got the Super Bowl. People are making their plans
- 21:39Speaker 1: for Sunday.
- 21:40Speaker 4: It didn't hit like it would have right in the
- 21:44Speaker 4: wake of the loss, like to But like Goody said,
- 21:47Speaker 4: how did you handle that loss of the Bears?
- 21:49Speaker 1: Not well? Not when you digest the loss? Not well?
- 21:53Speaker 1: Not well, well, we'll tee that up.
- 21:56Speaker 4: Jim Osarski is gonna join us in a little more
- 21:59Speaker 4: than an hour to talk about Giannis and trade deadlines.
- 22:01Speaker 8: Is at two o'clock. We think he's staying and then
- 22:04Speaker 8: like Groundhog Day. We get to tee it up again
- 22:06Speaker 8: in the off season. It's the hot on Fox Sports
- 22:08Speaker 8: Radio Wisconsin. Well, this is Dolf's window. Scott Dolphin would
- 22:12Speaker 8: usually be joining us.
- 22:12Speaker 4: But he's had boots on the beach in the Dominican Republic,
- 22:15Speaker 4: probably having no fun once on Whatsoeverly for Mexico and
- 22:20Speaker 4: a little more than a week.
- 22:23Speaker 1: I'll miss you guys. Oh, you guys are getting out
- 22:24Speaker 1: of town. But tacos and tequila are calling. Yeah, that's
- 22:27Speaker 1: gonna be phenomenal.
- 22:28Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna I'm actually gonna be bringing this, uh,
- 22:30Speaker 4: this little diddy, this little program while you're out of
- 22:33Speaker 4: the country. We're gonna be out of the state a
- 22:35Speaker 4: little bit. We're gonna do a round tripper and we're
- 22:38Speaker 4: gonna do some spring training reporting. Only bad thing is
- 22:41Speaker 4: I got some I got some bad information and we're
- 22:46Speaker 4: going to the Grapefruit League instead of the Cactus League.
- 22:50Speaker 3: Yeah that's Florida. Like, what the hell? What the hell
- 22:53Speaker 3: cactus in Florida.
- 22:54Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
- 22:55Speaker 4: And that's why I thought, all right, I thought there
- 22:58Speaker 4: was this new when I saw the trucks leave, I
- 23:01Speaker 4: thought I read in the GPS that they were going
- 23:03Speaker 4: to Fort Myers, Florida.
- 23:04Speaker 3: Apparently, no Maryvale, Arizona. He's gonna be in Lakeland with
- 23:08Speaker 3: those Tigers reports. I can't wait, baby. Yeah, so we're
- 23:10Speaker 3: gonna give it.
- 23:11Speaker 7: We'll give you some reports on the Twins and Red
- 23:13Speaker 7: Sox spring training coming up in a couple of weeks,
- 23:16Speaker 7: and then some.
- 23:17Speaker 3: Actual reports on some Brewers. That's gonna that's locked into.
- 23:20Speaker 3: That's gonna be fun there. It's super accessible down there
- 23:23Speaker 3: for some of those teams, right, players and stuffespecially.
- 23:25Speaker 1: The bad ones.
- 23:26Speaker 4: Yeah, like apparently apparently the Twins they literally.
- 23:29Speaker 7: Let the kids just go and play with the players.
- 23:30Speaker 7: They're like, yeah, go play catch.
- 23:31Speaker 4: I remember watching else going on as a kid. I
- 23:34Speaker 4: remember we went to spring train, we did the grape
- 23:36Speaker 4: Fruit leag thing, and I saw the Reds getting ready.
- 23:38Speaker 4: I'm just like, it might have been minor league guys,
- 23:40Speaker 4: but when you're real little, when.
- 23:41Speaker 3: You when you're a kid, that's the most amazing thing ever.
- 23:44Speaker 3: I was thinking about when the the Admirals at camera
- 23:46Speaker 3: night on Tuesday at the game, where you could go
- 23:48Speaker 3: on the ice and take pictures of players and stuff,
- 23:51Speaker 3: and the Brewers used to do that where They had
- 23:52Speaker 3: the guys in folding chairs around the warning track and
- 23:55Speaker 3: that was the one of the most exciting things I
- 23:57Speaker 3: did that summer was step foot on County Stadium and
- 24:00Speaker 3: get my picture with you know, jose Valentine, internal Ward
- 24:03Speaker 3: and all these guys.
- 24:03Speaker 1: You know, it was just all the center. He was
- 24:05Speaker 1: striking out one hundred and forty times like that.
- 24:08Speaker 3: I mean, like, come on, you weren't worried about you
- 24:10Speaker 3: have Baseball Reference Dot Combat then care and then when
- 24:13Speaker 3: you were done with the pictures, you're you're like all right, mom,
- 24:16Speaker 3: I'm like, let me stay on the warning track five
- 24:18Speaker 3: more minutes and we're making catches at the wall, like
- 24:20Speaker 3: I have a picture.
- 24:21Speaker 1: It was so fun. Did you pick up any grass
- 24:23Speaker 1: and put it in your pocket?
- 24:24Speaker 3: Yeah? They had that roped off. Even back in County Stadium.
- 24:27Speaker 1: They had that really roped off. It was only dirt. Well,
- 24:30Speaker 1: you had special access.
- 24:32Speaker 7: I mean as a kid, oh really, Arman would never
- 24:36Speaker 7: have done something that mischievous.
- 24:37Speaker 1: Drue. Also, I had this beauty said you can't do that.
- 24:41Speaker 1: I was afraid of you, that I'd get kicked out
- 24:43Speaker 1: or something.
- 24:44Speaker 3: Also, like I had this huge Brewers T shirt on
- 24:46Speaker 3: because it was one of those like you're gonna grow
- 24:48Speaker 3: into this type of thing situation. You know, we're gonna
- 24:50Speaker 3: get you a little bigger one get you used three
- 24:53Speaker 3: T and they just got the new logo. So everybody
- 24:56Speaker 3: was buying a new Brewers shirts in ninety four.
- 24:58Speaker 1: You know that was but that was.
- 24:59Speaker 3: Like almost before they grew out of the uniform. Good question,
- 25:03Speaker 3: probably grew out of that logo. Probably is that the
- 25:05Speaker 3: sea foam green era. Yeah, put in the green tint
- 25:08Speaker 3: with the cross bats and the my friend used to
- 25:11Speaker 3: call it the mortar bame logo look like notre name
- 25:14Speaker 3: the NB A little bit, a little bit, I still
- 25:16Speaker 3: think it was all that bad, although some people just
- 25:18Speaker 3: still can't stand that logo.
- 25:19Speaker 7: And then you hear what said, well, your boy, Matti vaskursion.
- 25:22Speaker 7: I don't know if you caught this he posted or
- 25:23Speaker 7: he went on.
- 25:24Speaker 4: A MLB off season conversation on MLB Network ranked the
- 25:28Speaker 4: top logos in Major League Baseball history.
- 25:30Speaker 1: I know you're stunned by which one. Matty V picked
- 25:33Speaker 1: his number.
- 25:34Speaker 7: One, the eighties balling glove Brewers logo.
- 25:37Speaker 1: Come on, now, Maddy's smart. He had the twins.
- 25:40Speaker 7: From seventy to eighty seventy six to eighty six in there,
- 25:43Speaker 7: the old true win twins where they're shaking hands, went
- 25:47Speaker 7: to State.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Same Paul and yeah, Saint Paul and Minneapolis and then.
- 25:51Speaker 7: Just some you know, he's got the Tigers in there,
- 25:53Speaker 7: like I get it again.
- 25:55Speaker 1: It's classic old yeah, old English d I don't think
- 25:57Speaker 1: it's that great, but it's in there. Phil the Phillies
- 26:00Speaker 1: logo pretty sweet.
- 26:00Speaker 7: And then he had the the ninety seven or seventy
- 26:03Speaker 7: one to eighty one old swing and a's.
- 26:09Speaker 1: Good luck, good luck. That's a good look, all right.
- 26:12Speaker 4: So Goody talked yesterday and we didn't get there's not
- 26:15Speaker 4: a lot of news out of that, not a ton,
- 26:17Speaker 4: but a couple of couples that made stood out to
- 26:19Speaker 4: you the most.
- 26:20Speaker 7: Billy Well, I think the number one to everybody, and
- 26:24Speaker 7: the question that everybody knew set coming into the press conference.
- 26:28Speaker 1: Drew what the answer was going.
- 26:29Speaker 7: To be, but they also knew that they weren't going
- 26:31Speaker 7: to necessarily like the answer. Brian Gudakuns on Rich Basacia
- 26:35Speaker 7: and his continued stay as.
- 26:38Speaker 1: A special teams coach and assistant head coach.
- 26:43Speaker 6: You know what Rich brings to this, this our culture,
- 26:46Speaker 6: this football team, you know, it's just it's it's really
- 26:49Speaker 6: he's a very impactful coach around here, you know. Certainly, Yeah,
- 26:55Speaker 6: I thought we've been better on teams last few years.
- 26:58Speaker 1: We've been in a long time. Cover units have been better.
- 27:01Speaker 6: We got one of the best punters in the national
- 27:03Speaker 6: football They've got an excellent snapper, you know. You know,
- 27:07Speaker 6: Brandon was excellent last year. This year again he worked
- 27:10Speaker 6: through some things Andrey wise, and then had a bad
- 27:12Speaker 6: playoff game. You know, that was kind of how that ended.
- 27:15Speaker 6: But now I got a lot of faith and Rich
- 27:17Speaker 6: and his staff. What they do around here, not only
- 27:20Speaker 6: the x's and o's and what they bring to the field,
- 27:22Speaker 6: but what they bring to this place culturally is really important.
- 27:25Speaker 7: So not just what he brings on the field, what
- 27:28Speaker 7: he brings to the culture. Drew kind of confirms what
- 27:31Speaker 7: we said for a while and what I think you
- 27:33Speaker 7: and I have said. I packers ote despite the understandable
- 27:37Speaker 7: frustration whenever we put that in there, that there there's
- 27:40Speaker 7: gotta be more than what he's doing than just with
- 27:43Speaker 7: the special teams. That adds so much value, And as
- 27:46Speaker 7: to why they love him in the building has to
- 27:49Speaker 7: be like that. We just don't know, we don't. We
- 27:51Speaker 7: won't be able to see it. We won't be able
- 27:53Speaker 7: to see it. But what he does to their culture
- 27:55Speaker 7: is too important to lose. And then they're talked about.
- 27:56Speaker 4: Okay, our coverage units have improved well except for a
- 28:00Speaker 4: couple of key moments in the game against a couple
- 28:01Speaker 4: of key spots, a couple of Yeah, but again, Bo, Melton,
- 28:05Speaker 4: Zan and Anderson out injuries, bad luck.
- 28:08Speaker 1: You're you're down to your top two gunners. That that matters, Yeah,
- 28:12Speaker 1: it does. That matters. It that diminished that matters.
- 28:14Speaker 4: So you had guys in that you know wouldn't have
- 28:17Speaker 4: been on the field had they been healthy. Okay, uh,
- 28:19Speaker 4: but then, like you know, mcmaus missing kicks, is that
- 28:22Speaker 4: rich Pisacia's fault? Was the operation good? Was it good
- 28:24Speaker 4: the rest of the time? Did he have a streak
- 28:26Speaker 4: where he made thirty in a row?
- 28:27Speaker 7: Yeah, I was gonna say he applauded Brandon Master making
- 28:30Speaker 7: thirty two kicks this year.
- 28:31Speaker 1: Well, obviously it didn't go well. And then but he
- 28:33Speaker 1: rolled into the playoffs on a pretty good streak.
- 28:35Speaker 3: He made thirty two kicks and then unfortunately didn't didn't
- 28:38Speaker 3: get it done.
- 28:38Speaker 7: But now you mentioned the injuries drew on the special
- 28:42Speaker 7: teams as well as the rest of the football team,
- 28:45Speaker 7: not something Goody was going to take as any bit
- 28:48Speaker 7: of an excuse for why the season ended on a
- 28:50Speaker 7: five game I got one.
- 28:51Speaker 6: Ring since I've been doing this, and it was year
- 28:53Speaker 6: we had more injuries than I think any other right, So, like,
- 28:58Speaker 6: you know, it's it's it's and then nothing against any
- 29:01Speaker 6: other teams there, but you never feel like, hey, we
- 29:03Speaker 6: can't go win this game.
- 29:05Speaker 1: You know. I fully expected where we were.
- 29:07Speaker 6: In the middle of the playoff game to win that
- 29:09Speaker 6: game and beheaded in Seattle and win that game, you know.
- 29:13Speaker 1: And so.
- 29:16Speaker 6: Again it's like, I think that's the thing that makes
- 29:18Speaker 6: this job so as tough as those moments are, it's
- 29:23Speaker 6: what draws us a lot to it.
- 29:24Speaker 1: It's the competitive nature of it, you know.
- 29:26Speaker 6: And to you know, I always say it up here,
- 29:30Speaker 6: but the roster buildings three sixty five and we're always
- 29:33Speaker 6: on top of that stuff. And that's you know, to me,
- 29:36Speaker 6: if you're going to do this in those moments, that's
- 29:40Speaker 6: where your leaders better step up and be ready to go,
- 29:42Speaker 6: you know, not only your players, but your coaches and
- 29:44Speaker 6: then myself included. So I mean, yeah, I mean, it's
- 29:48Speaker 6: those things suck. You never want to lose good players,
- 29:50Speaker 6: you know. I mean, but it's part of the it's
- 29:54Speaker 6: the nature of the business. And I mean, you know,
- 29:58Speaker 6: if if you've got an answer to get around it,
- 30:00Speaker 6: then I'm all for it.
- 30:01Speaker 1: But it's just I've never seen it.
- 30:02Speaker 6: Even these two teams that are playing this week, they've
- 30:04Speaker 6: had their share injuries as well, you know, And.
- 30:07Speaker 1: Sometimes sometimes it's fortune.
- 30:09Speaker 6: Sometimes it's the way you're doing things, and you take
- 30:10Speaker 6: a look at it all and just try to make
- 30:12Speaker 6: the best decisions.
- 30:14Speaker 1: It's amazing.
- 30:15Speaker 3: It's amazing how much I can relate to him saying
- 30:18Speaker 3: that in terms of like, in the middle of that game,
- 30:20Speaker 3: I felt.
- 30:21Speaker 1: We're gonna win and go all the way.
- 30:22Speaker 3: I think most Backer fans obviously felt they were gonna
- 30:25Speaker 3: win the Bears game. And I remember thinking, Man, we're
- 30:27Speaker 3: gonn It's crazy. This is the year we're actually going
- 30:29Speaker 3: to the super Bowl, Like it's crazy, this is gonna happen,
- 30:31Speaker 3: Like we're gonna be Seattle the NS.
- 30:33Speaker 1: He's not.
- 30:33Speaker 3: And that that's the beauty of sports, right is where
- 30:35Speaker 3: you can take your mind there. But Goody being honest
- 30:39Speaker 3: and transparently This is what I felt. A lot of fans,
- 30:41Speaker 3: I think can relate to that well.
- 30:43Speaker 7: And you can't really go into many games not believing
- 30:46Speaker 7: that you're gonna win it. And when you have that
- 30:49Speaker 7: kind of competitiveness and you're in that spot, you're in
- 30:51Speaker 7: the cafpirin see Drew. The only thing you can think
- 30:54Speaker 7: of is winning the game, and how are we going
- 30:57Speaker 7: to find it? There's definitely going to be some you know,
- 31:00Speaker 7: maybe people would say insanity to it, but they were
- 31:02Speaker 7: good enough to still, like you said, build a twenty
- 31:05Speaker 7: one to three lead, they were just unable to. And
- 31:08Speaker 7: I think he mentioned it right there, their leaders needing
- 31:11Speaker 7: to step up on both sides of the football being
- 31:13Speaker 7: a question as to a couple of those big moments
- 31:15Speaker 7: like you think of I get like six carries with
- 31:18Speaker 7: Josh Jacobs into the second half.
- 31:20Speaker 1: Of the game.
- 31:20Speaker 4: A couple of key moments in the regular season, Xavier
- 31:23Speaker 4: McKinney dropping a pick in Denver, stuff like that, your
- 31:27Speaker 4: best guy else where did you want? And he was
- 31:29Speaker 4: in position, had nothing to do with the coordinator or
- 31:32Speaker 4: the scheme. He was in position. He didn't hang out
- 31:34Speaker 4: of the ball.
- 31:35Speaker 7: Yeah, And the second Chicago game, like you're in position,
- 31:40Speaker 7: you're on the doorstep. It's the first and goal from
- 31:42Speaker 7: the three, and one of your best guys and one
- 31:45Speaker 7: of your star wars fumbles the ball.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Like that stuff is going to happen. I happened.
- 31:49Speaker 7: I struggled and not want to give him that opportunity.
- 31:51Speaker 7: I also like this one Drew where he mentioned and
- 31:54Speaker 7: courtesy to a bunch of different outlets for allowing us
- 31:57Speaker 7: to get pieces of this cut up.
- 31:59Speaker 4: However, this one twenty twenty six. They always say it
- 32:02Speaker 4: will be a different team. However, last year the walkoff
- 32:05Speaker 4: quote from Goody was what we need more urgency, time
- 32:08Speaker 4: to start competing for championships.
- 32:10Speaker 1: That has not changed.
- 32:11Speaker 6: Yeah, Like I said, I think there in every in
- 32:14Speaker 6: every NFL season, there's there's successes, there's disappointments.
- 32:19Speaker 1: We have won goal here, you know, and we never
- 32:20Speaker 1: run from it.
- 32:21Speaker 3: You know.
- 32:21Speaker 6: We're here to win championships and I think this team
- 32:23Speaker 6: is capable of that. Twenty twenty six will be a
- 32:26Speaker 6: different team, and but the expectations won't change. So again,
- 32:32Speaker 6: I thought there's some really good things during the season.
- 32:34Speaker 6: There also were some major disappointments. But I really do
- 32:38Speaker 6: like the guys we have in that locker room, the
- 32:40Speaker 6: guys that are coming back, and we'll continue to add
- 32:42Speaker 6: to that.
- 32:43Speaker 1: And again, I think we're all excited to get at it,
- 32:46Speaker 1: excited to get after that. Now stuff in front of him.
- 32:49Speaker 4: He's speaking there to packers fans, he's also speaking to
- 32:52Speaker 4: the locker room in some ways, right, I would assume. So, yeah,
- 32:55Speaker 4: he was saying when asked about Rashaan Gary, like he's not.
- 32:57Speaker 1: Going to commit to like we're dumping that dude, he
- 33:00Speaker 1: played his last game, say any of that.
- 33:03Speaker 4: And there are some people like he if he thinks
- 33:05Speaker 4: the cornerbacks room is all buttoned up and takeing care
- 33:07Speaker 4: of well, I will say this, the cornerbacks were serviceable
- 33:10Speaker 4: when Mikeah Parsons was rushing the passer.
- 33:13Speaker 1: They got exposed when they were nine to three and one.
- 33:15Speaker 1: That's sure when they got exposed. Yes, absolutely, But yeah,
- 33:19Speaker 1: again you.
- 33:20Speaker 4: Go back to he wasn't he wasn't going to talk
- 33:23Speaker 4: about moves and stuff like that.
- 33:25Speaker 1: But it does change every year.
- 33:26Speaker 4: There isn't there's a thread usually with the quarterback, oh yeah,
- 33:31Speaker 4: or with your star players, but it's a different dynamic.
- 33:34Speaker 1: The man not for nothing. Again, he's not gonna use injuries.
- 33:38Speaker 4: But like you know, Elton Jenkins Zach Tom are their
- 33:40Speaker 4: two best offensive line and they were hurt.
- 33:42Speaker 1: All year and they didn't finish the season.
- 33:44Speaker 7: And Zach Tom might be the most underdiscussed key injury
- 33:48Speaker 7: that was that transpired in the back year.
- 33:51Speaker 4: Why do we still hang on Well, if Bakiyari hadn't
- 33:53Speaker 4: got hurt, they would have won a super Bowl. But
- 33:54Speaker 4: we don't even say, well, they might have won the
- 33:56Speaker 4: damn playoff game a Zach Tom played.
- 33:57Speaker 1: Yeah, if Zach Tom would have been able to play,
- 33:59Speaker 1: might have been different. They might have won one of
- 34:02Speaker 1: the final five games. They should have probably won three
- 34:04Speaker 1: of them.
- 34:05Speaker 7: Big ones, I thought the other the other noteworthy ones
- 34:09Speaker 7: from Goody yesterday and then we'll hear a couple more
- 34:11Speaker 7: comments throughout the day.
- 34:12Speaker 4: Talked about Matthew Golden. I thought Matthew did an excellent job.
- 34:15Speaker 7: He said from training camp to the end of the season,
- 34:17Speaker 7: really excited about what he can do in year two.
- 34:20Speaker 7: And did also mention the fact that already in touch
- 34:23Speaker 7: with Tucker Craft's camp about how the organization feels about
- 34:26Speaker 7: him while he's recovering from a torn ACL He does
- 34:29Speaker 7: enter a contract year and extensions will happen. Extension talks
- 34:33Speaker 7: will happen in the near future. That to me feels
- 34:36Speaker 7: like one that will be pretty easy to get taken
- 34:38Speaker 7: care of. Drew, I would say that one feels pretty easy.
- 34:42Speaker 7: Text him you're thinking about.
- 34:46Speaker 1: We'll send it over and let you know. Absolutely all right.
- 34:49Speaker 1: We are rolling through.
- 34:50Speaker 4: This would have been the Dolph segment halftime. We're on
- 34:52Speaker 4: the back end of the weeks, on the first day,
- 34:54Speaker 4: heading into Super Bowl Sunday. Old baby Jim Ozarski is
- 34:58Speaker 4: going to join us in about oh forty five minutes

- 36:17Speaker 4: most brigade any human.
- 36:20Speaker 7: Being has ever had. I don't I doubt anybody's had
- 36:22Speaker 7: more than Darren Sutton. Uh but was that like, was
- 36:26Speaker 7: that a deal? Was Were people just getting on him
- 36:29Speaker 7: left and right? Or was he Did he fire up
- 36:31Speaker 7: the Santa Maria once he got out of Milwaukee?
- 36:34Speaker 1: It was out of Milwaukee, Okay, that became one of
- 36:37Speaker 1: the more iconic Yeah.
- 36:38Speaker 4: I don't know if you picked it up in San Diego,
- 36:40Speaker 4: but that was a national type of deal.
- 36:42Speaker 3: He started doing funny stuff on Milwaukee. That's a cultivated
- 36:45Speaker 3: he was playing off. Yeah, he was having fun.
- 36:47Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 36:47Speaker 3: How many times he told you that was his favorite
- 36:49Speaker 3: time in broadcasting away.
- 36:51Speaker 4: We talk about it to this day when we chop
- 36:53Speaker 4: it up and talk about stuff we used to do.
- 36:54Speaker 4: He's like, I love that version of myself. It's like
- 36:57Speaker 4: he's just sad that that guy no longer exists.
- 37:00Speaker 1: We all have a version of ourselves that's like, yeah,
- 37:02Speaker 1: he's like, oh, I love that. We're all trying to
- 37:03Speaker 1: hang on to.
- 37:05Speaker 4: You know, he had so much fun, so much fun,
- 37:10Speaker 4: and people think, oh, being around of beads, he must
- 37:12Speaker 4: be miserable.
- 37:13Speaker 1: No, we had a blast. It was no doubt about it.
- 37:15Speaker 4: Everybody around with a blast the best. Sometimes when you
- 37:18Speaker 4: listen to those cut ups of what Maddie V and
- 37:21Speaker 4: Rock are doing there, you can hear Rock just gasping
- 37:24Speaker 4: for Arrow, laughing like this stuff, like just.
- 37:26Speaker 1: What am I supposed to do? I respond to that?
- 37:31Speaker 1: Some guys why they show that stuff? Man, I'm mad
- 37:38Speaker 1: Mass Coursions Love Child guy and.
- 37:41Speaker 3: The Bleachers and I'm Matt Mass persons love Child written
- 37:43Speaker 3: on a white T shirt.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Me down the screen looks like he's my age, looks
- 37:51Speaker 1: up with that you know him now? I don't know
- 37:54Speaker 1: the guy. I don't know if he's a Supreme Span
- 37:56Speaker 1: or if he's a you know what the story is
- 38:01Speaker 1: to the.
- 38:03Speaker 3: Happy youngster things.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Those are the days that was when stuff was fun.
- 38:09Speaker 7: Well, and now you wonder, Drew, if this beautiful pitch
- 38:12Speaker 7: clock that they have has made this game so digestible
- 38:14Speaker 7: and fun to watch on television. Are you able to
- 38:17Speaker 7: have that kind of fun on television anymore? You're gonna
- 38:19Speaker 7: have a television I mean, who's distributing get We know
- 38:21Speaker 7: now MLB, but it was you know, the MSCs back then,
- 38:25Speaker 7: the Midwest Morts channel.
- 38:26Speaker 1: That was the best. That's what it was.
- 38:28Speaker 3: So you're right, I mean, the landscape has changed, but me,
- 38:30Speaker 3: you know, but DNA doesn't have to change. We can
- 38:32Speaker 3: still have fun in this thing. That's the whole idea
- 38:35Speaker 3: of this show is let's have fun. Chop it up
- 38:37Speaker 3: Amy back to the Gooty Press or anything else.
- 38:41Speaker 4: As we pivot this year, that's the last we'll get
- 38:44Speaker 4: a Packers availability of news for a while until they're
- 38:48Speaker 4: the combine. Then they then they'll sit at the combine
- 38:50Speaker 4: and then that won't really be Newsy, It'll be it'll.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Be much more of Yeah, we really like this class.
- 38:57Speaker 1: What do you like about the time? We really like
- 38:58Speaker 1: this class?
- 38:59Speaker 4: Free agency and the Packers and then the draft this
- 39:03Speaker 4: year it's it's it was gonna be a comdown because
- 39:05Speaker 4: it's not in Green Bay.
- 39:07Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt that.
- 39:07Speaker 4: If they don't have a first round pick, there's not
- 39:10Speaker 4: as much heat with the draft, and it's like you
- 39:12Speaker 4: can pine for players and we can start scouting second
- 39:15Speaker 4: round guys for sure, and like, you know, day two guys,
- 39:18Speaker 4: are you know okay?
- 39:19Speaker 1: Great? Yeah, it's that's.
- 39:22Speaker 7: Not gonna be nearly a sex scene, not gonna be
- 39:23Speaker 7: nearly as fun. I honestly thought one of my favorite
- 39:25Speaker 7: parts of it was not related to this year's Packers team,
- 39:29Speaker 7: Right there's I enjoyed the Anthony Belton conversation of what
- 39:32Speaker 7: he expected from what they got that we mentioned Rashaan
- 39:35Speaker 7: and Gary talked about the corners and thought Keishat Nixon
- 39:37Speaker 7: played oh better than people thought that the thing about
- 39:40Speaker 7: the lineman needing positional versatility, and I did think it
- 39:43Speaker 7: was interesting, And I wonder what you thought when he said, yeah,
- 39:45Speaker 7: there are some advantages of like keeping guys.
- 39:47Speaker 4: On the same side, keep on their same side. But
- 39:49Speaker 4: it was like, if you're gonna be you're gonna work
- 39:51Speaker 4: at left tackle, left guard, yes, you know, And so
- 39:54Speaker 4: that made some sense to me. And I never really
- 39:56Speaker 4: thought about that because the way it went back in
- 39:58Speaker 4: the Steno heyday of the offensive line was just.
- 40:00Speaker 1: Plug and play. No matter where they put anybody, they
- 40:02Speaker 1: were good. Oh yeah, well t J.
- 40:03Speaker 4: Lang and Brian Blaga for a decade and a half,
- 40:06Speaker 4: that was the calling card of Green Bay offensive lineman,
- 40:08Speaker 4: where that you're gonna pounce from right guard to left tackle.
- 40:10Speaker 4: But we saw it with Morgan, where you're comfortable at
- 40:12Speaker 4: one side, you're gonna be much better at that side
- 40:15Speaker 4: if you're able to be consistent on that, on that
- 40:18Speaker 4: and not necessarily ask these guys to bite off maybe
- 40:22Speaker 4: more than they can chew. But this one talking about
- 40:25Speaker 4: ron Wolf because we're going into the Ron Wolf Bowl,
- 40:27Speaker 4: I don't know that we'll have time for they'll we
- 40:29Speaker 4: got a little bit of time for it here. This
- 40:30Speaker 4: was about what you learned under Ron Wolf in Green Bay.
- 40:33Speaker 4: As two guys now who were alongside duty are going
- 40:36Speaker 4: to be coaching in the biggest game of the NFL.
- 40:38Speaker 4: One of the coolest things that had happened to me
- 40:40Speaker 4: in my football career was just kind of stepping into
- 40:43Speaker 4: that world with all those guys. Scott mccluan, Regie McKenzie,
- 40:47Speaker 4: John Dorsty ron Ted and like I didn't know it
- 40:52Speaker 4: at the time, I knew they just won the Super
- 40:54Speaker 4: Bowl and they must be pretty good. But to learn
- 40:56Speaker 4: from those guys and kind of soak that in, and
- 40:58Speaker 4: they were so confident at the time, they had so
- 41:00Speaker 4: much faith and belief and what Ron was doing in
- 41:02Speaker 4: the system that it was just really easy to buy into.
- 41:06Speaker 6: And you know, then I spent a year in Kansas
- 41:08Speaker 6: City with John. It was a different system, but John
- 41:10Speaker 6: was kind of kind of trying to take what they
- 41:13Speaker 6: were doing in Green Bay and implemented in Kansas City
- 41:15Speaker 6: a little bit. And I came right back and yeah,
- 41:17Speaker 6: it's again, it's just it's really cool to see. I
- 41:20Speaker 6: mean I really normally, if we're not in it, I
- 41:22Speaker 6: could care less about that game and hope they both lose.
- 41:25Speaker 6: But in this one, like I just you know, I
- 41:28Speaker 6: just know, no matter how what the outcome is, it's
- 41:30Speaker 6: I'm gonna be really happy for for that person. And uh,
- 41:33Speaker 6: that's just a it's it's just a really cool thing
- 41:35Speaker 6: for the guys that the guys that come from kind
- 41:39Speaker 6: of that, that have been with Green Bay, have come
- 41:41Speaker 6: through that process, are still really close.
- 41:44Speaker 1: There's guys throughout the National Football League on all kinds
- 41:46Speaker 1: of other teams.
- 41:48Speaker 6: Doors used to call it the mothership, you know, this
- 41:50Speaker 6: place of mothership and and and you all have a
- 41:52Speaker 6: sense of pride coming from that process.
- 41:54Speaker 1: That's why I've always looked at it.
- 41:55Speaker 7: And if you come from the mothership, they've kind of
- 41:57Speaker 7: brought success wherever they've gone. John Dorsey, you mentioned a
- 42:01Speaker 7: lot of those guys the architect in some bad organizations.
- 42:04Speaker 1: They've had some better years.
- 42:05Speaker 4: Yeah, very interesting, all right, moving forward, jim o'sars going
- 42:09Speaker 4: to join us at seven thirty special surprise guests just
- 42:12Speaker 4: after seven o'clock
