Speaker 2: Radio Wisconsin Drew, Billy and Armon. We were here late
0:18

0:28
Speaker 3: Welcome, Welcome, as Arman plays you in with a song
0:32
Speaker 3: from Mac and Devon Go to High School, one of
0:35
Speaker 3: the great twenty ten Stoner movies that you possibly could have.
0:39
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's true. I was just thinking of anything
0:41
Speaker 1: that referenced no sleep, and that was the line.
0:43
Speaker 4: Well you know that no sleep is actually not a
0:45
Speaker 4: part of that of that song.
0:48
Speaker 1: Isn't that what he says? So we don't sleep? What
0:50
Speaker 1: he say?
0:51
Speaker 4: That is in the radio edit version.
0:54
Speaker 1: Okay, well we're on the RD.
0:56
Speaker 3: I know, I know you're surpriving that actually that actually
0:59
Speaker 3: wasn't a part of that.
1:00
Speaker 1: So that's not the clean version. That is that is
1:03
Speaker 1: the super super clean version. Yeah, the alum super clean version.
1:07
Speaker 3: No.
1:07
Speaker 4: Instead, that one references what we do, uh what around
1:10
Speaker 4: seven forty eight?
1:12
Speaker 2: Yes, Awake Bake segment.
1:14
Speaker 1: There was a there was a young so what a
1:16
Speaker 1: young arman that didn't realize a lot of things on
1:19
Speaker 1: the I got I didn't get the parental advisory. Well,
1:22
Speaker 1: you would be like.
1:23
Speaker 4: Wiz Khalifa in this movie.
1:24
Speaker 3: This movie would be showing a young armand sorry and
1:28
Speaker 3: as Whiz Khalifa before Whiz Khalifa got to meet that
1:31
Speaker 3: part of the back end of his name. Uh and
1:33
Speaker 3: he meets a young man that that Snoop is walking
1:37
Speaker 3: in mac just won't graduate.
1:39
Speaker 1: Just won't leave that dang school alone.
1:42
Speaker 3: And all of a sudden he busts out certain things
1:45
Speaker 3: from that backpack. Oh that's a good movie. I watched
1:48
Speaker 3: that movie far too many times. It seems awful as
1:50
Speaker 3: it is. That seems like a million tip type of movie.
1:52
Speaker 3: That seems like that was on regularly in college. That
1:55
Speaker 3: would have been probably our college version of Super True. Yeah,
1:59
Speaker 3: of which there's a Super Troopers three. I can't believe it.
2:02
Speaker 1: I just thought two came out, and then all of
2:04
Speaker 1: a sudden there's a three, Like you gotta be kidding me,
2:06
Speaker 1: but hey, yeah, they were doing a press for it.
2:08
Speaker 4: We'll got Marcus in the whole little spiel before the
2:11
Speaker 4: before the movies.
2:12
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make Matt Miller watch that to review it.
2:15
Speaker 1: I love it. Hey man, you want to come on,
2:17
Speaker 1: you have to watch superree Oh man.
2:21
Speaker 2: All right, Six o'clock clubvers early risers, insomniacs, sociopaths, welcome
2:27
Speaker 2: all one, welcome all. We're caffeinated. We're gonna get through
2:30
Speaker 2: this and then we're gonna crash. So it took ten
2:33
Speaker 2: minutes from my Aura app to realize that I had
2:36
Speaker 2: a two hour nap, that's what they're calling it, out
2:42
Speaker 2: of one hundred.
2:42
Speaker 1: Well, I've been trying to figure out what constitutes a
2:44
Speaker 1: new day, because you know, like the new, the new,
2:47
Speaker 1: it's a new day for there you go, because you know,
2:51
Speaker 1: obviously you're supposed to change clothes every day. That's kind
2:54
Speaker 1: of what we do with customs of society. I've heard that,
2:56
Speaker 1: But I'm like, I got the same shirt on the
2:59
Speaker 1: same undersh do I put a new shirt on? Is
3:01
Speaker 1: it a new day here technically? Or like I kind
3:03
Speaker 1: of barely went to sleep, So I feel like you
3:06
Speaker 1: don't have to if you don't want. Well, I don't
3:07
Speaker 1: care my Brewers shirt. I probably I just don't know
3:10
Speaker 1: I'm like, does this kind of I should probably put
3:12
Speaker 1: new cs on.
3:13
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, if if you really want to do
3:15
Speaker 3: something good for the for the show, what you would
3:17
Speaker 3: do is you'd change shirt right now on the video stream,
3:19
Speaker 3: so we'd have that digital asset.
3:20
Speaker 1: So I don't know underneath it, you want me to
3:23
Speaker 1: go shirtless on the stream? Is that what you're want
3:26
Speaker 1: is that?
3:26
Speaker 3: I don't know.
3:26
Speaker 4: I mean, do we stay up late last night or what?
3:28
Speaker 4: What the heck kind of party is this here?
3:30
Speaker 1: Joey probably had something better playing than this, you know, yeah,
3:35
Speaker 1: no doubt.
3:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, So my my two hours, my sleep score of
3:38
Speaker 2: thirty two out of one hundred. Like, okay, so two
3:40
Speaker 2: hours and nine minutes time in bed, two hours fifty
3:43
Speaker 2: four minutes, so I laid down for almost three hours,
3:45
Speaker 2: slept for just two and that's that's But yeah, I
3:49
Speaker 2: have I didn't bother changing shirts, but I do keep
3:54
Speaker 2: toilet trees in my little office over there, the locker room.
3:58
Speaker 2: And well I like that, yeah too, rush toilet trees.
4:01
Speaker 2: You know, I was able to, like, you know, shower
4:03
Speaker 2: in the bathroom.
4:03
Speaker 1: That One of my my best takes ever is every
4:06
Speaker 1: radio station should have a working shop.
4:07
Speaker 2: They should totally.
4:09
Speaker 3: I rolled home and then in the middle of the sleep,
4:12
Speaker 3: I gotta I got a hand in the head of Daddy.
4:14
Speaker 3: You leave, but this is where I'm supposed to be.
4:18
Speaker 3: You're supposed to be somewhere else. But that's fine.
4:21
Speaker 1: I will leave.
4:22
Speaker 4: And then I got a little little extra work and
4:23
Speaker 4: a little glazers for.
4:25
Speaker 1: Well, you came through with those.
4:26
Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
4:27
Speaker 1: The glaziers. We got cookies.
4:28
Speaker 2: We're good to go, but we're running on sugar and caffeine.
4:31
Speaker 2: That's how it goes, all right. So we mentioned the
4:34
Speaker 2: first start with the program dominated with talk of the Packers,
4:36
Speaker 2: a preseason opener. We were helming Packers ot until midnight.
4:41
Speaker 2: So after every Packers game, join us on the air
4:44
Speaker 2: or on the interwebster, however you experience it. The story
4:48
Speaker 2: of the night was Trey Smack. We've been going through
4:50
Speaker 2: some things. Keyshawn Nixon's getting blistered today because people are
4:55
Speaker 2: recirculating the clip of his attempt to tackle on the
4:57
Speaker 2: sideline with Katano La Depot and and for a guy
5:01
Speaker 2: who am maybe his starting jobs in Jeopardy, probably not,
5:06
Speaker 2: but it's not a good look and it wasn't a
5:09
Speaker 2: good at least he didn't dive out of the way
5:10
Speaker 2: like it was a goal line play in Chicago in
5:12
Speaker 2: the playoffs.
5:13
Speaker 4: Yeah, you said it well last night, Drew.
5:15
Speaker 3: It's not in his top five worst tackle attempts, but
5:19
Speaker 3: it's definitely but it might be in the top ten.
5:21
Speaker 4: It's definitely not coach day. But it's a tough one
5:23
Speaker 4: to be.
5:24
Speaker 2: Got a Hall of Shame worthy reel of miss tackle attempts,
5:27
Speaker 2: and this was not It was not a positive look.
5:31
Speaker 1: It wasn't a good look.
5:31
Speaker 3: No. I mean, he is also trying to jump over
5:33
Speaker 3: a teammate to be able to get somebody that's running
5:35
Speaker 3: away from him. If he would have been able to
5:37
Speaker 3: make that tackle after o Latipo's in between him, that
5:40
Speaker 3: that would have been an impressive play. But you are
5:42
Speaker 3: looking at somebody who everything that he does is going
5:45
Speaker 3: to be graded on a we hate you scale. Like
5:48
Speaker 3: there's nobody that ever that Packers fans have venom ount
5:51
Speaker 3: more for than Keyshawn Nixon. And there's always gonna be
5:55
Speaker 3: guys on the team that have that spot. There's always
5:57
Speaker 3: gonna be somebody that holds that throne. His is also magnified, though,
6:02
Speaker 3: and and I think understandably. So when there's thoughts that
6:06
Speaker 3: you know you're asking for a new contract, you're looking
6:08
Speaker 3: for the opportunity. He's played a lot of football and
6:10
Speaker 3: he's making five million dollars no guaranteed money. Any agent
6:13
Speaker 3: worth their salt would be telling him to try to
6:15
Speaker 3: find a way to lock in guaranteed money for I
6:18
Speaker 3: think the reasons that we've all now watched, they are
6:21
Speaker 3: hoping to be able to find somebody that would take
6:23
Speaker 3: him take that spot away.
6:24
Speaker 2: His Q rating has been trending down since he stopped
6:27
Speaker 2: returning kicks and since he expressed the idea that he's
6:31
Speaker 2: like too important to return Yes, bothered.
6:34
Speaker 1: Since he got expectations and money and all that.
6:36
Speaker 2: And then it comes with the label of number one
6:40
Speaker 2: corner because that's what he thinks he is and that's
6:42
Speaker 2: how he carries himself.
6:43
Speaker 3: Well, that's what the football team thinks he is. That
6:45
Speaker 3: was what he lined up as last year, right, Yeah,
6:48
Speaker 3: again the cornerback? One is is he a co like
6:52
Speaker 3: the number one starter for a baseball team or an ace?
6:55
Speaker 1: Is an ace? Yeah? Would he be the number one
6:57
Speaker 1: on your team? Yes, that's it.
6:59
Speaker 3: Would he be a number three on a team that
7:01
Speaker 3: might be winning a title one thousand percent, but again
7:04
Speaker 3: to say that he was you know self admittedly so
7:07
Speaker 3: also appointed by the team that way as well.
7:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. But like we said, like you know,
7:14
Speaker 2: there's there's that that element of when you say, guys
7:18
Speaker 2: who woke up on third base and think they hit
7:20
Speaker 2: a triple, you know, because they were they were handed
7:23
Speaker 2: something that. Okay, but by whether but whatever the circumstance,
7:27
Speaker 2: you were handed something that yeah, you know.
7:29
Speaker 3: But again, like Keisha Nixon was also at one point
7:32
Speaker 3: a first team All Pro returner, right, so like you're
7:34
Speaker 3: looking at it, yeah, and seeing where he was there,
7:37
Speaker 3: the team then tries to find another way to put
7:39
Speaker 3: put you onto the team and find different ways to
7:42
Speaker 3: go through and get you opportunities. All I think about
7:45
Speaker 3: is he's not this guy, so immediately people are going
7:48
Speaker 3: to jump on don't compare him to Devin Hester. The
7:51
Speaker 3: Bears wanted to find any different position to be able
7:54
Speaker 3: to get him on into the field.
7:55
Speaker 4: You know what, he was the best kick returner of
7:57
Speaker 4: all time.
7:58
Speaker 3: It's right, but that position and all we're gonna see
8:01
Speaker 3: it now with Sky Moore as well, he saw him
8:03
Speaker 3: last night. They're gonna find ways to try to get
8:05
Speaker 3: off want more out of the spot, but what you're
8:08
Speaker 3: on the team for is that exact purpose. And then
8:11
Speaker 3: once roster implications and what else transpired around you happened,
8:17
Speaker 3: he was forced into another spot, and uh, he has
8:20
Speaker 3: not lived up to that position that they've put him in.
8:22
Speaker 3: They also haven't found guys that have replaced him. They
8:26
Speaker 3: brought in plenty of bodies, so this one now appears
8:29
Speaker 3: that they have one with Brandon Sees and we'll see
8:31
Speaker 3: if he's able to hold off Benjamin Saint Hustin whenever
8:33
Speaker 3: Carrington Valentine gets back onto the line into the lineup,
8:35
Speaker 3: but uh he has uh there the ire is up
8:38
Speaker 3: for Keishawn Nixon. But Packers fans, they're doing something. They're
8:42
Speaker 3: bringing in as much competition as they have at this point,
8:45
Speaker 3: because there wasn't a ton that you were gonna find
8:47
Speaker 3: during the off season outside of the young man that
8:50
Speaker 3: just signed with Seattle, but anybody signing, anybody looking to
8:55
Speaker 3: line up to try to sign Terry on Arnold Seahawks grape.
9:00
Speaker 2: Was yeah, and that is stunning that a guy with
9:03
Speaker 2: like what eight pending fell in each Argee signed by
9:07
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl champs and the team that's on hard knocks,
9:12
Speaker 2: Like you want to talk about protecting the shield and
9:14
Speaker 2: having something on broadcast every night. When you look at
9:18
Speaker 2: that and you say, and Tony Romo is not allowed
9:21
Speaker 2: to work, you know.
9:23
Speaker 1: That's not that's how you know. It's about the talent.
9:27
Speaker 2: I'm not condoning driving under the influence and Tony Romo
9:31
Speaker 2: let the coorts have. But that's that's how the NFL
9:35
Speaker 2: works a thousand. They're the compromises that they've made and
9:40
Speaker 2: the deals with the devil that they've made. And we're
9:46
Speaker 2: sitting here and like, how can they bring Terry And
9:48
Speaker 2: I don't know that. We're waiting for details on Josh Jacobs,
9:51
Speaker 2: still trying to figure out if those charges. We don't
9:52
Speaker 2: know where that's gonna go.
9:53
Speaker 1: If your talent's good enough usually but again that one
9:58
Speaker 1: one is awaiting charges to actually be filed. One has
10:02
Speaker 1: eight eight fell on the table.
10:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, you could be life in prison, and like basically,
10:09
Speaker 2: you know, first time, first I have to ask the
10:11
Speaker 2: barrister because he's the expert. But first offense d u
10:14
Speaker 2: I and Wisconsin basically a municipal ordnance violation basically, and
10:21
Speaker 2: so Drew it's but they're both horrible, but come on, yes,
10:24
Speaker 2: one thousand percent, and it's what the what the shield is.
10:28
Speaker 2: And the Seahawks is a fascinating team. Because I I
10:32
Speaker 2: missed the first episode of Hard Knocks, I will be
10:35
Speaker 2: watching to see how they if HBO fires in all
10:39
Speaker 2: of that content of the behind the scenes visuals of them.
10:42
Speaker 2: Now it's funny because you know, John Schneider is there,
10:45
Speaker 2: their GM who hails from the Pier and was with
10:48
Speaker 2: the Packers, And in every conversation is a Ted you
10:51
Speaker 2: know disciple and Ted and Ron wolf Tree right, he's
10:53
Speaker 2: looking at tape right.
10:55
Speaker 1: Well, that's the thing.
10:56
Speaker 2: But can you, in your wildest imagination at least think
11:01
Speaker 2: of the Packers bringing in a guy who's in Terry
11:03
Speaker 2: and Arnold situation right now? No, No, I could see
11:08
Speaker 2: the harmon running on the field before I could. I
11:12
Speaker 2: remember one of the chilling one of the most chilling
11:14
Speaker 2: moments in Packers press conference history. And there's been a few,
11:17
Speaker 2: just like when bart Star screamed at Dave Beagle, what
11:20
Speaker 2: do you know about comeback ability? And stuff like that.
11:22
Speaker 2: Really there was some epic meltdowns, like basically like Bartar
11:28
Speaker 2: wouldn't talk to the press of Beagle was in the
11:30
Speaker 2: room for one point Bartlett rest in rest in peace,
11:33
Speaker 2: Dave Beagle. But it was when the Packers acquired Corn Robinson,
11:37
Speaker 2: who had like I think two d uys in his
11:39
Speaker 2: class or something. Yeah, and Seed Thompson in a rare
11:43
Speaker 2: moment at the at the podium and Cliff Crystal working
11:46
Speaker 2: for the Journal Sentinel, my teammate said, what are you
11:50
Speaker 2: going to do if this guy kills somebody on the
11:52
Speaker 2: roads in Green Bay? Like, what what's the organization? But
11:56
Speaker 2: what's the stance?
11:58
Speaker 1: How do you answer that?
11:59
Speaker 2: I mean, they had a guy full time, like driving
12:01
Speaker 2: him and staying with him basically, the baby said, but
12:05
Speaker 2: there was there's no answer to that, right, And so.
12:08
Speaker 1: That's that's a tough thing for gms. What are you
12:12
Speaker 1: going to do now people, because they want to make
12:13
Speaker 1: the what are you gonna do if this guy's allowed
12:15
Speaker 1: to play?
12:16
Speaker 2: And then you're getting into the playoff time and then
12:18
Speaker 2: I'll here come the charges that he's.
12:19
Speaker 4: Going to be bound for trial or you know, like
12:21
Speaker 4: oh boy, one hundred percent.
12:23
Speaker 3: But it was one and it was one of the
12:26
Speaker 3: more crazy conversations because you I was a young Packer
12:30
Speaker 3: fan at that time. They had never been in any
12:33
Speaker 3: scroll with any player with a problem at that point,
12:36
Speaker 3: and they have him brought in. Yeah, you don't. You
12:39
Speaker 3: can't answer that one with any clear A former ninth
12:42
Speaker 3: overall pick. He was going to get opportunity and uh,
12:44
Speaker 3: terry on Arnold again for first round pick. Somebody was
12:48
Speaker 3: gonna give him another chance. And they decided, Yeah, why
12:51
Speaker 3: would we wait for that legal process to play out?
12:53
Speaker 3: The complete opposite of college football. I just wait for
12:56
Speaker 3: all the courts in Congress to be able to give
12:58
Speaker 3: us the answers. The NFL is like, I don't know,
13:00
Speaker 3: we're not waiting for him. There were issues some guys
13:03
Speaker 3: had when they were here, but not to bring in.
13:05
Speaker 3: The closest thing is Andre when they brought him in,
13:08
Speaker 3: but it wasn't under any.
13:09
Speaker 1: Certain like no legal issue. You know, the left I
13:14
Speaker 1: was just burning his shoes, yeah, burning his house down. Yeah.
13:16
Speaker 2: So yeah, that was that was you know, cloudy, And
13:19
Speaker 2: he ended up he ended up being a good packer
13:21
Speaker 2: and a contributor.
13:22
Speaker 1: Great pick up for that year and all that stuff,
13:24
Speaker 1: and they and they stuck with Brooks after that and
13:26
Speaker 1: then gave him the deal and not rising. But that's
13:28
Speaker 1: just the way it goes sometimes you.
13:30
Speaker 2: Know, yeah, so yeah, and well and again like here
13:32
Speaker 2: we are saying, how can they sign him? And well,
13:34
Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs is practicing didn't play last night because of
13:37
Speaker 2: his growing.
13:39
Speaker 3: Or so we're told, Yeah, but you know, uh, I
13:45
Speaker 3: I totally get it. But again, different different thousand, different, different, different.
13:51
Speaker 2: Different circumstances. So it's like, is it hypocritical of us
13:54
Speaker 2: to the arch and eye Browns. How can the Seahouse
13:56
Speaker 2: bring that guy in when the packers are waiting for
13:58
Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs to be cleared so he can play.
14:00
Speaker 4: I mean the Johnny Jolly name is Steve. This is
14:03
Speaker 4: Steve brings in.
14:04
Speaker 3: That was also another one that Latroit guy on was
14:07
Speaker 3: was one long past after there?
14:08
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, now that'll be the talking text.
14:11
Speaker 1: Line for the next couple of minutes.
14:12
Speaker 2: Well, and didn't we have I'm gonna say, Zidarius making
14:17
Speaker 2: the weed run with the boys coming back from Chicago
14:20
Speaker 2: from Chicagohny.
14:21
Speaker 1: Was it Johnny Jolly or LaTroy guy on both heads?
14:24
Speaker 4: They both Yeah, did you mention that I was? I
14:27
Speaker 4: was doing your next line stuff?
14:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially like the lean Yeah. So when it comes
14:37
Speaker 2: to this though, and again like the league, well as
14:41
Speaker 2: the NFL steered clear of some of the gambling issues, like.
14:46
Speaker 1: We have you know, well they'll they'll take a hard
14:48
Speaker 1: line there.
14:48
Speaker 3: Guardians lost a closer that's not playing, and we have
14:51
Speaker 3: guys who are you know Isaiah Rodgers who played for
14:53
Speaker 3: the Vikings last year, really really well, he missed a
14:56
Speaker 3: full year. He's probably the most notable guy that's been
14:59
Speaker 3: able to come back from the one year suspension.
15:01
Speaker 1: I think they watched suspended.
15:03
Speaker 2: Eight guys watch without getting hammered with the gambling ads
15:07
Speaker 2: and stuff. So it's like that's the best part of
15:09
Speaker 2: the two. So again, slippery slopes. But it is interesting
15:13
Speaker 2: that that guy got a gig I guess it. But
15:16
Speaker 2: not that he got a gig, but that he got
15:18
Speaker 2: a gig from.
15:18
Speaker 3: The raining super Bowl chap super Bowl Champs before camp's
15:22
Speaker 3: even done. Like they didn't even wait, I don't even
15:25
Speaker 3: know they waited for an injury. They just said, actually,
15:28
Speaker 3: let's just jump on this.
15:29
Speaker 2: They got them's we haven't mentioned because we it's still
15:32
Speaker 2: fresh and it seems like we're still in the packers ot.
15:35
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, yes, I don't know what we
15:37
Speaker 4: said on that show.
15:38
Speaker 2: In this show, we haven't mentioned that it was cool
15:41
Speaker 2: that every all the TV station went because of Mike
15:43
Speaker 2: McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers did not play, but
15:46
Speaker 2: he had fun, you know, tapping it up with all
15:49
Speaker 2: of his buddies and the equipment guys he loved. I
15:51
Speaker 2: will say this about Aaron Rodgers. He loves those guys,
15:54
Speaker 2: the equipment guys and the ushers and like the people
15:57
Speaker 2: that he saw every day. Like he genuine His affection
16:01
Speaker 2: for those people I don't think is fake or in
16:03
Speaker 2: any way right not real.
16:05
Speaker 3: No, all that love that those people, he loved. That
16:08
Speaker 3: part of it, that part of the personal touch. He
16:11
Speaker 3: keeps that thing very very tight. I also thought, shout out,
16:14
Speaker 3: we're not doing game balls and kicks the balls on
16:16
Speaker 3: this Friday. That feels like a game day or a
16:18
Speaker 3: game after day after game Monday. Carly Morana nice work
16:21
Speaker 3: on the broadcast. She had really a really, really cool
16:24
Speaker 3: feature with Mike and the crossover with her dad and
16:28
Speaker 3: McCarthy growing up. It was cool to see that kind
16:31
Speaker 3: of attention. Paid it again once the broadcast kicked in,
16:35
Speaker 3: re emphasized what we talked about in the morning yesterday,
16:38
Speaker 3: that game should have been Crow Bardon and Lamba.
16:40
Speaker 1: That's right.
16:41
Speaker 3: There is zero reason why the NFL didn't say, hold
16:44
Speaker 3: up mere real quick, let's let Aaron Rodgers take a
16:46
Speaker 3: victory lapse, say goodbye, h Matt. You want to go
16:49
Speaker 3: hang out with your brother, you guys are gonna have
16:50
Speaker 3: to do it in Scottsdale. Okay, God forbid you guys
16:53
Speaker 3: go over to old town Scottsdale. No way, he's gonna complain,
16:56
Speaker 3: sucks to be. You go to the Biltmore and you'll
16:58
Speaker 3: have a great time. We're gonna move this one to
17:00
Speaker 3: Green Bay because we want to see these guys have one.
17:04
Speaker 2: That would have been optimal. Yeah, seeing but so Rogers
17:07
Speaker 2: did not play, but he tapped up people and ye,
17:09
Speaker 2: yeah it was cool.
17:10
Speaker 1: And you know the picture he had with the real
17:13
Speaker 1: Big Mike, Mike Clements, did you guys I saw that
17:15
Speaker 1: in the tunnel? That was so great, right to selfie?
17:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Mike's how everybody you say this press conference
17:22
Speaker 3: with the local media was.
17:23
Speaker 2: You know, that was a nice touch that he did
17:25
Speaker 2: that when he knew he wasn't gonna play.
17:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also shout out to Bob Dmowski for muting
17:29
Speaker 3: himself just to give us a good throwback at twenty twenty.
17:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, I made remind us of the COVID days.
17:35
Speaker 2: You're muted Bobby, muted Bobby, and then Rogers brings it
17:39
Speaker 2: up about like your back, Oh, Bob will relate to
17:41
Speaker 2: this when you're trying to golf and your back's not
17:43
Speaker 2: listen enough to get older.
17:46
Speaker 1: It was good moments.
17:47
Speaker 3: So he's gonna be how many more rounds do you
17:50
Speaker 3: think Aaron's gonna play at Green Bay Country Club that
17:52
Speaker 3: he mentioned in there would have been good to be
17:53
Speaker 3: able to get back there at dinner at Shives.
17:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good Dives got so much run from
17:57
Speaker 1: him in the last time.

Speaker 2: nice night for their not rookie first year head coach.
18:40
Speaker 2: Uh Steelers beat the Packers twenty at nine. All Right,
18:43
Speaker 2: Dolph is off today. I think he's not going to
18:45
Speaker 2: be with us Monday either. We've reached halftime of our
18:49
Speaker 2: most tired show to date here on the huddle, so
18:53
Speaker 2: when we come back, we are going to play one
18:55
Speaker 2: of our favorite games. Meanwhile, back here among the tire
18:58
Speaker 2: and strip club at now it's yes, Packers obviously are
19:02
Speaker 2: the main thrust, but we got to spin through there's
19:03
Speaker 2: a lot of stuff happening among the tired strip club ads.
19:06
Speaker 2: Page four, five, six of the newspaper. Remember what newspapers were.
19:10
Speaker 2: We'll tell Billy what it was like having a newspaper
19:12
Speaker 2: every day.
19:13
Speaker 1: Kidding, kidding, I know you.
19:14
Speaker 4: I only got them on Sundays.
19:16
Speaker 1: You grew up reading us.
19:19
Speaker 2: We're going to We're gonna spin through some other headlines,
19:22
Speaker 2: including a interesting football game with the aforementioned Arizona Cardinals
19:28
Speaker 2: and the and the Raiders have an interesting game we're
19:31
Speaker 2: going to talk about Meanwhile, back here among the tired
19:32
Speaker 2: strip club ads. That's next. You're in the huddle. Fox
19:35
Speaker 2: Sports Radio Wisconsin, Drew billion Arman, huddled up on No
19:41
Speaker 2: Sleep Friday edition.
19:43
Speaker 1: Coming to you. Doing pretty damn good though.
19:48
Speaker 3: Right now, I don't want to talk about a no
19:50
Speaker 3: hitter in the dugout, but double barrel in the cafe Karuba.
19:53
Speaker 1: You got the Selsias rolling this way good.
19:56
Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm going to see the seventh
19:57
Speaker 2: inning of the Brewers game tonight, hopefully, if there's a
19:59
Speaker 2: nap in my future, maybe a pool side nap. If
20:01
Speaker 2: the sun is shining, we'll see.
20:03
Speaker 4: But you're gonna see the sun. It just sucks, is
20:06
Speaker 4: it out there?
20:07
Speaker 1: Kissing me on? Well? Right now?
20:09
Speaker 3: As a well, I just mean, like in general, the
20:11
Speaker 3: last we had, Yes, as a fat it's it's a
20:15
Speaker 3: good thing, right cast is my friend.
20:18
Speaker 2: But I would like to see it. I'd like to
20:19
Speaker 2: see like two or three hours of extended sunshine which
20:22
Speaker 2: we've not seen in.
20:22
Speaker 1: Like we're getting. We're getting times of sun and clouds,
20:26
Speaker 1: highs in the upper seventies and low's upper sixties, and
20:28
Speaker 1: you might get some precipitation.
20:31
Speaker 4: There's been a chance of rain pretty much every day.
20:33
Speaker 2: We had no rain in July, and now we're getting
20:35
Speaker 2: at all. It just sucks anyway, Uh Golf is not
20:39
Speaker 2: here today, and we've reached halftime of today's additional hustle.
20:42
Speaker 2: Without Dolf, we play a little uh you know. Meanwhile,
20:46
Speaker 2: back here among the tire and strip club ass, I
20:48
Speaker 2: love this game. I love this the stories. The main
20:52
Speaker 2: stories today are, of course, the Brewers with their victory
20:55
Speaker 2: of the season, coming back to snatch victory from the
20:57
Speaker 2: Jaws to defeet and beat the Dodgers. I think that's
20:59
Speaker 2: the straight regular season game against victory against the Dodgers
21:03
Speaker 2: in any event, Definitely getting swept in San Diego and
21:07
Speaker 2: then turnaround and winning that game with a character winning
21:09
Speaker 2: the way they did. Huge Packers preseason opener trace Smack
21:14
Speaker 2: three field goals. We talked about that. Meanwhile, back here
21:16
Speaker 2: among the tired strip club ads, the Bucks released their
21:19
Speaker 2: schedule yesterday.
21:20
Speaker 3: All right, come on now, and a raucous number of
21:25
Speaker 3: primetime games I imagine, yeah, all over ESPN.
21:28
Speaker 1: And the uh.
21:31
Speaker 2: The Yannis exit has created a vacuum for nationally televised
21:35
Speaker 2: Bucks games.
21:35
Speaker 1: They have two.
21:35
Speaker 2: Schedules a grand total of two and against who against
21:38
Speaker 2: the Miami Heat.
21:39
Speaker 1: But now we'll see right belly, So now we'll see
21:42
Speaker 1: who the real Bucks fans are. That's true. I've been
21:44
Speaker 1: waiting for this all right now.
21:46
Speaker 2: But Christmas and Easter will arrive, as we like to say,
21:49
Speaker 2: January twenty eighth at fives Er Forum, when the Heat
21:52
Speaker 2: make their visit their only visit and Yiannis comes back, So.
21:54
Speaker 3: That will be the hottest The highest price is the
21:57
Speaker 3: highest price ticket of the season.
21:58
Speaker 2: That's the one ticket that's more than an opening night
22:01
Speaker 2: against Chicago whatever that is October twenty third or whatever
22:04
Speaker 2: that is or October twenty fifty.
22:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also I don't love that it's against Chicago,
22:08
Speaker 3: but you know, listen, the Baby Bowls, no one really
22:09
Speaker 3: cares about that much down.
22:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think the Bucks will be interesting
22:13
Speaker 2: to watch at times this year. There might be a
22:15
Speaker 2: nice diversion. But obviously that's the game that everybody's going
22:18
Speaker 2: to want to see locally, and that's will be the
22:21
Speaker 2: highest rated game on MY twenty four and the network
22:23
Speaker 2: of over the air stations that they've cobbled together.
22:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also in the midst of the two nationally
22:30
Speaker 3: televised game. It's also a little bit of a slap
22:31
Speaker 3: in the face. That's an eight thirty tip for the
22:34
Speaker 3: local crowd here in Milwaukee on the day that Giannis
22:37
Speaker 3: does return to Milwaukee.
22:38
Speaker 1: But that will be a night that everybody wants to
22:40
Speaker 1: see that.
22:41
Speaker 3: That's the whole point in the one thing to celebrate.
22:44
Speaker 3: But I am excited to watch Braden Burry's and company play.
22:48
Speaker 3: I as a Whitnell Falcon, am very excited to see
22:51
Speaker 3: Tyler Herro play for the hometown team, understand, and also
22:54
Speaker 3: to see how well he plays to hopefully be able
22:56
Speaker 3: to flip him at the deadline and get even more
22:57
Speaker 3: draft assets.
22:58
Speaker 1: That's another point, you know. I mean, you have you
23:00
Speaker 1: have something young, exciting players, and don't forget about the
23:03
Speaker 1: other guys you got in that trade. Heimi Haskez and
23:05
Speaker 1: all those guys. I mean, there's there's gonna be an
23:08
Speaker 1: interest there if you are.
23:09
Speaker 3: I thought they were gonna trade hawk As to UH
23:12
Speaker 3: for Peyton Watson. So that's why I haven't been getting
23:14
Speaker 3: in on the Heimi hawk As one yet. I want
23:16
Speaker 3: I wanted to figure out I've been being told by
23:18
Speaker 3: all these different NBA uh GMS online that they were
23:21
Speaker 3: gonna go trade for this Peyton Watson CAF from the Nuggets.
23:24
Speaker 1: Well, well I kept here. We're gonna flip Hero too,
23:26
Speaker 1: so I didn't want to get really into invested yet
23:28
Speaker 1: in the hometown Hero thing yet. But I think we're
23:31
Speaker 1: keep I think we're gonna try and the Bucks is
23:33
Speaker 1: gonna try and win next year because there's no point
23:34
Speaker 1: in tanking. They don't have a pick unless they acquire one, right,
23:38
Speaker 1: unless they acquire one.
23:39
Speaker 3: Well, they're also not gonna acquire their own. So yeah,
23:41
Speaker 3: to your point, they're not incentivized to lose. They're not
23:44
Speaker 3: incentivized to be the worst.
23:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, they wouldn't say they wouldn't have their own, so
23:47
Speaker 1: it wouldn't matter anyway. That's a good point. I don't
23:49
Speaker 1: have brain farts unless New Orleans wants to give it
23:51
Speaker 1: back and just be nice. Yeah, that's I guess possible.
23:53
Speaker 1: But but there's interest. So it's like no nationally televised games,
23:56
Speaker 1: but you do have the free TV.
23:58
Speaker 3: So I mean, if you like seeing armand loves anything
24:02
Speaker 3: that's free, what I'm saying free, it's me and give
24:04
Speaker 3: me three hundred if it's Army.
24:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know this little hero conflict. I like being
24:09
Speaker 1: around my teams when everyone else is kicking them around. Okay,
24:11
Speaker 1: now you know I was here when when when we
24:13
Speaker 1: lost a hundred six games in all two. Now you
24:15
Speaker 1: know I'm here when the Bucks are rebuilding and when
24:17
Speaker 1: Billy was the ball boy, and this will be in
24:19
Speaker 1: the future.
24:20
Speaker 3: This is the good test case to uh. This is
24:22
Speaker 3: what the Royals were in a couple of years ago.
24:24
Speaker 3: Right the Hey, you sold everything, he did everything you
24:27
Speaker 3: could to win the title. Would you take one title
24:30
Speaker 3: to ten years of suck?
24:31
Speaker 1: All right?
24:32
Speaker 3: Well, if you always say yes, Drew, why don't they
24:35
Speaker 3: call You got a number for somebody that they could
24:37
Speaker 3: call for season tickets?
24:38
Speaker 1: Right? Yeah, you got a ten pack. You better go
24:42
Speaker 1: in there and get one of those packages.
24:44
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, back here among the tired strip club ads in
24:46
Speaker 2: the NFL slate last evening, I think the most interesting
24:48
Speaker 2: game because we're going to be following the Cardinals tangentially.
24:51
Speaker 2: They're coming to Green Bay for the joint practice and
24:53
Speaker 2: the Lafleur family reunion. Cardinals beat the Raiders last night
24:57
Speaker 2: twenty seven fourteen. They did use him in the Hall
25:00
Speaker 2: of Fame game, but they unleashed the number three overall,
25:03
Speaker 2: picked Jeremiah Love quick feet, good runner. He had eleven
25:08
Speaker 2: carries for fifty eight yards five yards of carry. He
25:11
Speaker 2: was fining holes, took some hits. Also caught three passes
25:14
Speaker 2: for fourteen yards. So his career is now underway. He
25:18
Speaker 2: broke the seal.
25:19
Speaker 1: He did nice on that shot.
25:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so Mike Lafleur is now two and oh.
25:25
Speaker 2: And they might not win two regular season games, but
25:27
Speaker 2: they're two and oh in the preseason.
25:29
Speaker 3: No one and one actually because they lost. They ended
25:31
Speaker 3: up losing the game on that miraculous I forgot into
25:34
Speaker 3: the game play, but I had that as a win.
25:36
Speaker 2: And then they snatched feet from the Jaws.
25:41
Speaker 1: But also drew.
25:41
Speaker 3: They've played two of the most thrilling preseason games you
25:44
Speaker 3: could have. Yesterday, in the first half, the Cardinals went
25:48
Speaker 3: fifteen for fifteen at quarterback. I think it was ten
25:51
Speaker 3: for ten for Gardner Minshew, five for five for Jacoby Brissett,
25:54
Speaker 3: who held out for that super massive contract extension that
25:57
Speaker 3: he got. Also threw a touchdown pass, but interesting one
26:00
Speaker 3: there for the Gardener.
26:01
Speaker 2: The other side of that game was the Raiders, where
26:03
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins presided over a scoring drive in his only
26:07
Speaker 2: series of work ten plays sixty eight yards, he was
26:10
Speaker 2: five or six for fifty yards. He found tight end
26:13
Speaker 2: Michael Meyer in the end zone for thirteen yard TD,
26:17
Speaker 2: and then Fernando Mendoza stepped onto the field and he
26:20
Speaker 2: showed some resilience. First drive wasn't great too in completions one.
26:25
Speaker 2: And then the second drive, oh, he started to he
26:29
Speaker 2: started to find himself.
26:30
Speaker 4: A little bit, just a little bit on that ten
26:32
Speaker 4: play touchdown drive there, and no kidding.
26:34
Speaker 1: There's definitely excitement, understandably so, but I Love it's like
26:37
Speaker 1: slow starting, No know, his resilience.
26:38
Speaker 2: There was some resilience, and Mike Washington took over that
26:41
Speaker 2: drive to fifty three yards of rushing in that.
26:43
Speaker 3: And Mike Washington was the guy that I thought the
26:45
Speaker 3: Packers were going to be potentially in Andrew during the
26:47
Speaker 3: draft process. He was the bat one of the running
26:51
Speaker 3: backs that came right after Jeremiah Love. I think he
26:54
Speaker 3: was the third guy off the board from Arkansas.
26:55
Speaker 2: And so even though he's the number one overall pick
26:57
Speaker 2: for a rookie quarterback, first series three and out, wobbly
27:01
Speaker 2: second series presided over touch on drive. Third series three
27:05
Speaker 2: and out and then the fourth and final drive puts
27:08
Speaker 2: him in the field goal range, and he finished the
27:10
Speaker 2: night ten to sixteen ninety seven yards. He was pressured on.
27:14
Speaker 3: A lot of his drop back, Yeah, he was. He
27:15
Speaker 3: was under some siege back there from what it looked like.
27:17
Speaker 3: He was sacked once, but he faced some pressure. He
27:20
Speaker 3: had a much better night than poor Aid and OC
27:23
Speaker 3: was also there. And then they keep bringing up in
27:25
Speaker 3: the midst of the quarterback conversations in Las Vegas, did
27:29
Speaker 3: they give him that polo shirt that he walked in
27:32
Speaker 3: in like in his welcome package?
27:34
Speaker 1: Did you see it?
27:36
Speaker 3: It literally says like has the raider logo and then
27:39
Speaker 3: says player underneath it, like, yeah, no, Fernando, Fernando.
27:45
Speaker 4: Legitimately looks like Arman. You gotta look at a picture
27:47
Speaker 4: of it.
27:47
Speaker 1: That's it looks like that.
27:49
Speaker 3: It looks like the like Catholic school or private school
27:53
Speaker 3: school uniform polo.
27:55
Speaker 4: Shirt that you're gonna have with the big old logo
27:57
Speaker 4: of the school right there.
27:58
Speaker 1: I liked it. But he is.
28:00
Speaker 3: He's fitting in into the NFL. He's gonna be one
28:02
Speaker 3: of the most talked about players possible to see. Does
28:07
Speaker 3: Kurt Signetti's offense just work in college because he's also
28:10
Speaker 3: boasted now, Drew Right, I've had a first team All
28:12
Speaker 3: conference quarterback every single year. Maybe Fananle Mendoza is that
28:16
Speaker 3: transcendent or maybe it's just more finger and paint he
28:19
Speaker 3: dust from that Kurtz Signetti.
28:21
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, back here among the tyron circle of ads, Bengals
28:24
Speaker 2: beat the Lions sixteen to fourteen. The Lions, though Teddy
28:29
Speaker 2: Bridgewater's sudden retirement opened it up for Luke Altmeyer.
28:34
Speaker 1: The fighting a line I cat drafted out.
28:37
Speaker 2: Of Illinois thirteen for twenty one hundred and thirty yards
28:40
Speaker 2: with a touchdown, two interceptions, but a generally solid performance.
28:44
Speaker 2: And then Josh Jobs is now the backup who got
28:47
Speaker 2: into towns nine. He entered the game in the second
28:49
Speaker 2: quarter splitting snaps there and he was four for eight
28:54
Speaker 2: off the street for thirty two yards.
28:56
Speaker 3: So did Teddy Bridgewater just decide that coaching high school
28:59
Speaker 3: football is actually better than being in the NFL even
29:02
Speaker 3: if you get in trouble, you get in trouble, I
29:04
Speaker 3: might as well still go back.
29:06
Speaker 4: Just that was really out of the blue, because it wasn't.
29:09
Speaker 4: I didn't know that he was gonna have.
29:11
Speaker 3: Did he have a Vonte Davis moment where he's like,
29:13
Speaker 3: you know what, these young cats are way too good.
29:15
Speaker 3: I'm out of here, just leaving. I mean just leave
29:17
Speaker 3: right after practice. Because he just didn't say that he
29:19
Speaker 3: had it anymore.
29:19
Speaker 1: It's probably an interesting story if Anionly ever got to
29:22
Speaker 1: talk to him about and I'm sure he'll be on
29:24
Speaker 1: the podcast someday. But yeah, he came back out ofwards.
29:26
Speaker 1: We'll probably tell Adams. Yeah, probably exactly, Kate, we'll get that.
29:29
Speaker 1: But it's like, you know, most guys, You're right, Billy,
29:31
Speaker 1: don't turn down jobs like that, is that they play
29:34
Speaker 1: as long as they can. I mean, you know, And
29:36
Speaker 1: but he's like, no, I'm good. You know, I got
29:38
Speaker 1: what I needed out of this second second career in
29:40
Speaker 1: that game too, Drew.
29:41
Speaker 3: Uh.
29:42
Speaker 4: Do the Bengals have the oldest quarterback room in the world.
29:45
Speaker 1: Yes?
29:46
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow sure, Uh suddenly uh mid veteran right in
29:51
Speaker 3: the midst of his prime of his career. Sean Clifford
29:53
Speaker 3: young man from the Green Bay Packers, but Joe Flacco
29:56
Speaker 3: and Josh Johnson olds for first round pick from two
30:01
Speaker 3: thousand and eight. Yes, with Joe Flacco Josh Johnson also
30:05
Speaker 3: of the two thousand and eight draft class. My god,
30:08
Speaker 3: Blaco's gotta be one of the first player coaches we've
30:11
Speaker 3: seen it. I mean, he's got to become that. That's
30:12
Speaker 3: my next goal for Flacco.
30:14
Speaker 1: Like play coach, I want you to literally have a headset,
30:17
Speaker 1: but not just as a player suited up like you know,
30:20
Speaker 1: have the the Microsoft surface had the pad one hundred
30:24
Speaker 1: and thirty eight years between the four fall. That's epic.
30:29
Speaker 2: Back here among the Terrenstrip club ads and the most
30:31
Speaker 2: preseason results ever, the Patriots and Colts tied.
30:36
Speaker 1: The biggest thing from that game was U was a
30:39
Speaker 1: brable chuck in the challenge flag.
30:41
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, you know so, like it was this phone
30:44
Speaker 3: when the New York Post texted him again, that was
30:48
Speaker 3: a good one.
30:49
Speaker 1: I was waiting for something.
30:50
Speaker 3: I'd been sitting on that one. I had been sitting
30:53
Speaker 3: on that one for a while. I knew he probably
30:54
Speaker 3: wasn't the right time.
30:55
Speaker 2: That's okay this because one of the notable plays was
31:00
Speaker 2: that the first round pick for the Patriots, they're tackle
31:03
Speaker 2: Caleb Lomo.
31:04
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, and his.
31:06
Speaker 2: Most significant play was a borderline questionable ineligible man downfield penalty.
31:12
Speaker 1: That wiped out a big play.
31:14
Speaker 2: So Vrable's got to be pissed about that. Come on, stripes,
31:17
Speaker 2: let's go.
31:18
Speaker 1: What are we doing?
31:19
Speaker 2: What do we big night for rookies, the Texans unveiled
31:24
Speaker 2: their starting uh rookie center Keelan Rutledge played one driver.
31:28
Speaker 2: Let's go, he's a solid starter already. He's just like
31:31
Speaker 2: in trench to treating him like a veteran. So one start,
31:34
Speaker 2: one drive, you're in.
31:35
Speaker 1: Uh oh.
31:36
Speaker 3: In that game, Graham Mertz went down with an injury.
31:38
Speaker 3: Former Badgers get some action with the Texans.
31:40
Speaker 1: That's oh Graham, I didn't know he was out there.
31:42
Speaker 2: Titans beat the forty nine Ers nineteen to thirteen. But
31:45
Speaker 2: the Titans played both of their first round picks, Carnel
31:47
Speaker 2: Tait and Keldric Fox. They starts and they got they
31:50
Speaker 2: got targeted, but they held up pretty well.
31:52
Speaker 1: They had some sweet oiler looking kind of throwback. Is
31:56
Speaker 1: that what they're gonna wear? That's those are their news? Yeah?
31:58
Speaker 1: I like that a lot, right, speaking of a hosiery
32:01
Speaker 1: really quick packers. Last night again in the White Sox,
32:04
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, yeah, can we go back to the green socks?
32:06
Speaker 1: I just I gotta maybe it's over. Maybe I should
32:08
Speaker 1: just stop with this crusade. They said last year, it's
32:11
Speaker 1: over forever. I thought they were so I thought they
32:14
Speaker 1: were going to try it for the year. They said,
32:15
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was going to be the future.
32:18
Speaker 3: Okay, that's like that's like when your high school girlfriend said,
32:20
Speaker 3: I think we should maybe just see other people and
32:22
Speaker 3: just try it.
32:23
Speaker 1: Take a break. Yeah, okay, what's the break? That means
32:26
Speaker 1: it's over, It's done, all right?
32:29
Speaker 2: Also the last story for a meanwhile, back here among
32:31
Speaker 2: the tyrant triple heads, like, we can talk about jayde
32:33
Speaker 2: and Daniels bitching about his number, and we can talk
32:35
Speaker 2: about that dude's back. Did the Aces make the playoffs?
32:40
Speaker 1: Arm? And they did? They clinched last night. Let's go
32:43
Speaker 1: oh yeah.
32:45
Speaker 2: And in news that you know would percolate in the
32:47
Speaker 2: NL Central and down the down the line, Hunter Green
32:52
Speaker 2: of the Reds is on the shelf. We'll have Tommy
32:55
Speaker 2: John surgery for the second time. He's out the rest
32:58
Speaker 2: of this year and all of next.
33:00
Speaker 4: And all of next year for the number of the
33:02
Speaker 4: former number one overall pick.
33:04
Speaker 1: He was on.
33:05
Speaker 2: The Sports Illustrated had a cover story on him, saying
33:08
Speaker 2: Baseball's lebron or the new Babe. Ruth because he's the headline.
33:11
Speaker 2: The caption was, he's seventeen, he mashes, he throws one
33:14
Speaker 2: hundred and two. Hunter Green is the star baseball needs,
33:17
Speaker 2: but first he has to finish high school.
33:18
Speaker 1: And that is no one can live up to that
33:20
Speaker 1: the next Babe Ruth.
33:21
Speaker 2: He was a two way player for Notre Dame High
33:23
Speaker 2: School in Sherman Oaks. He hit one hundred and two
33:26
Speaker 2: on the radar gun and he hit four hundred and
33:27
Speaker 2: fifty foot homers.
33:28
Speaker 3: Now Arman, Yeah, yeah, nobody could live up to that,
33:32
Speaker 3: except there might be somebody that is. Well, I do
33:36
Speaker 3: remember somebody getting that tag coming over from Japan.
33:39
Speaker 1: Okay, but no one told him at seventeen you gotta be.
33:42
Speaker 3: Babe maybe right, No, he just told everybody else. Yeah,
33:46
Speaker 3: everybody else, I'm gonna do it and you might have
33:48
Speaker 3: to check with manny. I think that was one of
33:51
Speaker 3: the first years that they televised the draft. Yeah, and
33:54
Speaker 3: mostly because Hunter Green was the star and star Attractions Agogo.
34:00
Speaker 2: He dominated the Cubs with seven innings and twelve punch outs.
34:04
Speaker 2: And now he's on the shelf for He's talented and
34:07
Speaker 2: coming back from two years and he signed a six year,
34:10
Speaker 2: fifty three million dollar deal in April of twenty three,
34:12
Speaker 2: banking on his talent. And now he's on the shelf.
34:16
Speaker 4: And now he's on the shelf.
34:17
Speaker 3: And a couple of weeks ago he was day of
34:20
Speaker 3: the deadline, one of the hot names that was thought
34:23
Speaker 3: to be available. You might be able to pry Hunter
34:26
Speaker 3: Green out of Cincinnati. You might be able to get him.
34:28
Speaker 3: Maybe they knew something, or.
34:30
Speaker 4: Maybe they should have struck while the iron was hot.
34:32
Speaker 1: Yep. That's gonna be a tough one to sit back.
34:36
Speaker 1: That's hard emotionally when you put so much into a
34:38
Speaker 1: prospect to just say, all right, we got to take
34:40
Speaker 1: a break.
34:41
Speaker 2: Otherwise, back here by the time strikklevets, we're going to
34:43
Speaker 2: be reading bowling on our scores and stuff in holes
34:45
Speaker 2: in one and.
34:46
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be telling you about them.
34:47
Speaker 3: They use Magic Johnson highlight tape that I'm watching, Happy
34:50
Speaker 3: Birthday Magic.
34:51
Speaker 1: Yep, there you go.
34:51
Speaker 2: When we come back, though, I will once again, I
34:54
Speaker 2: like to call out my own hypocrisy, and I will
34:56
Speaker 2: do that.
34:57
Speaker 1: Next.
34:58
Speaker 2: You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wiscon Drew billion
35:01
Speaker 2: Arman huddled up on a Friday in the good Land
35:04
Speaker 2: eight seven seven seven nine four seven three gets you
35:06
Speaker 2: into the nicolay lot dot com talk and text line.
35:09
Speaker 2: We make it a point on this program to call
35:11
Speaker 2: it hypocrisy, especially when it emanates from our own studio.
35:15
Speaker 2: And I will raise my hand right now and say
35:18
Speaker 2: that while I am on record and Armand knows this,
35:20
Speaker 2: that I think the movie Field of Dreams is a
35:22
Speaker 2: steaming pile of dump. It is not a baseball movie,
35:27
Speaker 2: and it is not a good movie in any way,
35:29
Speaker 2: shape or form in terms of the story. And Matt
35:31
Speaker 2: Miller and I can go at this really hard if
35:33
Speaker 2: we want to go really get deep into the weeds.
35:36
Speaker 2: But it's cool that they play the game in Iowa
35:38
Speaker 2: and a cornfield and that they had twenty six Hall
35:40
Speaker 2: of Famers walk out of the cornfield before the game
35:42
Speaker 2: last night.
35:42
Speaker 1: I look good man.
35:44
Speaker 2: Can be true? Yep, I agree with you. Two things
35:46
Speaker 2: can both be true.
35:48
Speaker 1: I love that because I wasn't expecting that take from you.
35:50
Speaker 1: I was getting ready for you to make fun of
35:52
Speaker 1: the whole thing. So I'm glad you did because I
35:54
Speaker 1: loved it. Right well, those guys walked out.
35:56
Speaker 3: Damn you love anything more than Paul Mallader as the
36:00
Speaker 3: Wins are playing in the game walking out in a
36:02
Speaker 3: Brewers uniform.
36:02
Speaker 1: No, that was cool. I mean because Paul has always
36:06
Speaker 1: associated himself with the Brewers in terms of the most
36:09
Speaker 1: important part of his career. I know he went to
36:10
Speaker 1: Toronto and we know about that in Minnesota, but he's
36:13
Speaker 1: always been a guy that sad. I remember he famously
36:15
Speaker 1: I have to go into the halls of Brewer all
36:17
Speaker 1: these things.
36:18
Speaker 2: Yep, you had him maur.
36:22
Speaker 1: Well. I think C c was there, wasn't he A
36:23
Speaker 1: bunch of twenty six guys. Jim Tom was in there.
36:27
Speaker 2: Yep, twenty six guys walked out of the corn and
36:29
Speaker 2: I saw Veskersen walked out and then walked back in.
36:32
Speaker 1: He's like, I just realized.
36:33
Speaker 2: I just remember that there's a taco stand in a
36:35
Speaker 2: recliner back in the cornfield.
36:37
Speaker 1: He walked out. Now, Buddy, sorry, Billy. I was just
36:42
Speaker 1: gonna say, Buddy Man was there. But there's bleachers now
36:44
Speaker 1: and stuff. I was like, did that ruin the vibe?
36:46
Speaker 1: He's like, no, it's pretty awesome.
36:47
Speaker 4: Oh sweet, an awesome thing to see lives.
36:50
Speaker 1: In Iowan and his kids when and he said that
36:52
Speaker 1: his young kids were excited because seeing the movie feel
36:56
Speaker 1: the Dreams made them feel like important as a sports
36:59
Speaker 1: fan in Iowa for the because they don't have Maitlexe sports.
37:02
Speaker 1: So they're like, we're special, We're in Iowa.
37:04
Speaker 4: Good teams are.
37:04
Speaker 2: Coming here, a real ones again. The Cliff's notes on
37:07
Speaker 2: why I hate the movie. First of all, I don't
37:08
Speaker 2: consider it really a baseball movie, and the inaccuracies. Shulis
37:12
Speaker 2: Joe Jackson portrayed as kind of a hero in this
37:15
Speaker 2: movie when he's actually the original Pete Rose right fixed
37:17
Speaker 2: the World Series in nineteen nineteen. He was a left
37:22
Speaker 2: handed guy from South Carolina played by a right handed guy,
37:25
Speaker 2: Rayliota from Brooklyn with a Brooklyn accent. Yeah, that's a
37:28
Speaker 2: tough one to get over if you're any kind of
37:29
Speaker 2: baseball historian or purists. But the story, the premise of
37:33
Speaker 2: the story that this guy Ray Cansella's decision to plow
37:38
Speaker 2: under three acres of crops is going to bankrupt the farm,
37:41
Speaker 2: like three acres really.
37:43
Speaker 1: Well, Margins, I mean really, And that was right after
37:46
Speaker 1: the farm crisis and the eighty acres. It was out
37:48
Speaker 1: in eighty nine. But I don't know, I don't know farming, okay.
37:52
Speaker 2: And it's the but it's the father son relationship. It's like, okay,
37:55
Speaker 2: they don't develop that though, other than arguing about like
37:59
Speaker 2: you know, the kid didn't like baseball and thought he
38:01
Speaker 2: called Shulis Joe Jackson a criminal. There had to be
38:03
Speaker 2: more to the relationship that's never explored to discovered at all,
38:06
Speaker 2: and we only get the one side of it and
38:08
Speaker 2: it's all solved with a game of catch and you
38:11
Speaker 2: you're allowed. If you had a tough relationship with your father,
38:14
Speaker 2: then you like, you ascribe your your own face. You
38:16
Speaker 2: had a good relationship with your father, You describe It's
38:18
Speaker 2: like you fill in the blanks and the holes in
38:20
Speaker 2: the plot with your own memory bank, put yourself.
38:23
Speaker 1: Into the moment.
38:24
Speaker 2: Yea, it is, so it's like it's not a good movie.
38:27
Speaker 2: Then there's this subplot, the whole Moonlight Gram thing. But
38:31
Speaker 2: the subplot also with his wife is like against him
38:34
Speaker 2: to plown down the thing. Then she's for him, and
38:36
Speaker 2: then she goes to a PTA meeting and she's like
38:38
Speaker 2: a sixties radical railing against moms banning books and like that.
38:41
Speaker 1: Well, you have to you have to have a storyline.
38:44
Speaker 2: You have to have a storyline. But the movie opens
38:46
Speaker 2: with the scene like his mother dies in a car
38:49
Speaker 2: crash when he's a little kid, and he's so he's ready,
38:50
Speaker 2: but they never like that might have impacted in life,
38:52
Speaker 2: and that might affected the relationship between It never explored.
38:55
Speaker 2: It's got so many holes that you can drive a
38:57
Speaker 2: truck through. It's just a bad, sap be syrupy movie
39:01
Speaker 2: that like let people project their own feelings onto the movie.
39:04
Speaker 1: That aren't there. That's it makes you feel something. I mean,
39:07
Speaker 1: look in Bull Durham, Kevin Cosers making out with Sarandon
39:11
Speaker 1: for like five minutes at the end of the movie.
39:13
Speaker 1: Didn't need that either. I'm just saying.
39:14
Speaker 2: Okay, And some of the performances are stiff, and James
39:17
Speaker 2: Earl Jones tells Ray that this whole baseball thing is
39:20
Speaker 2: his penance for what for what? Kids don't disagree with
39:22
Speaker 2: their fathers when they're teenagers. Yeah, everyone right. I gotta
39:26
Speaker 2: be honest though, it's just a crap movie and it's
39:30
Speaker 2: not a baseball really, it's just not so.
39:33
Speaker 3: I can't I'm I'm bad in the conversation. I don't
39:36
Speaker 3: think I've seen wire to wires, so I probably I
39:39
Speaker 3: probably can't admit it, but I would say the clip
39:41
Speaker 3: is good. The clip of Dak can we have a catch?
39:44
Speaker 3: And the clip of Roger Clemens, given that line says
39:47
Speaker 3: have a catch, Well, that's the worst thing in the
39:49
Speaker 3: whole movie is no one says have a catch. I thought, oh,
39:52
Speaker 3: I always thought that was the joke of it, and
39:54
Speaker 3: oh maybe, oh not for enough, always thought that was
39:56
Speaker 3: the joke when it.
39:57
Speaker 2: Comes to like you like to catch continuity ears and movies,
40:00
Speaker 2: like someone's carrying a bag and then they turn around
40:02
Speaker 2: they don't have the bag, or they're wearing a different shirt,
40:04
Speaker 2: or Game of Thrones they got a Starbucks cup on
40:06
Speaker 2: the table.
40:07
Speaker 3: I've never done that in movies now I'm doing it
40:09
Speaker 3: with Ai though, but in Field of dreams, like the
40:12
Speaker 3: sun rises and sets.
40:14
Speaker 2: Over the cornfield and left field.
40:16
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good one. That's a good one. Well
40:18
Speaker 1: different angles of.
40:19
Speaker 2: The Yeah, yeah, don't that doesn't work that way any event.
40:22
Speaker 2: I do like the They're going to Cooper's town and
40:26
Speaker 2: that's gonna be cool. But it was cool having the
40:28
Speaker 2: Hall of Famers walk out in that ode to the movie.
40:30
Speaker 2: I still think the movie is a steaming pile of dung.
40:33
Speaker 2: But let baseball celebrate it. Let people have fun.
40:35
Speaker 1: In Iowa.
40:36
Speaker 2: Play a big, big league game in Iowa. I'm all
40:38
Speaker 2: about it. We have our we have who's hot, who's not.
40:41
Speaker 2: We got our current electric start of the game, and
40:43
Speaker 2: we're going to power through the last hour of the
40:45
Speaker 2: week running on fumes and caffeine. It's the Huddle. Fox
