- 1:18Speaker 3: if Netflix will fire out all of the Christmas games
- 1:22Speaker 3: because they now have worked a super secret.
- 1:25Speaker 1: You talk about buying and selling.
- 1:27Speaker 3: Now, these are full commodities that like the different entities
- 1:29Speaker 3: are trading amongst each other, almost like either you know,

- 1:49Speaker 1: I never heard of it.
- 1:51Speaker 4: I'm just curious about I want to be part of

- 2:07Speaker 3: of the the Nightcap is going to be on Fox.
- 2:09Speaker 3: They end up adopting the Rams and forty nine ers game.
- 2:12Speaker 3: So there's some passing, some buying and selling that's rolling
- 2:15Speaker 3: through here. But tomorrow morning we'll figure out if indeed,
- 2:17Speaker 3: Drew we have one of those early morning post games,
- 2:21Speaker 3: and the real early morning is our for our friend
- 2:24Speaker 3: Dennis Grousey on Packers preview, because that one will be
- 2:27Speaker 3: very early on the start if they hit that eight
- 2:30Speaker 3: thirty kickoffing my goodness. Yeah, actually Doug Russell the earliest one,
- 2:33Speaker 3: right earliest.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
- 2:35Speaker 4: Doug will be involved in that, so that'll be a
- 2:36Speaker 4: good onefles though. That's a good thing for all of
- 2:39Speaker 4: the Oh I love when he does that. Yeah, it
- 2:40Speaker 4: gets the grill going. Now buy okay, so buyer sell,
- 2:44Speaker 4: we'll get more drips and drabs. You mentioned the the
- 2:46Speaker 4: leaks coming out today on the schedule. Speaking of NFL leaks,
- 2:49Speaker 4: buyer Cell, we'll get one more run this pace Russini
- 2:53Speaker 4: rable leak today. I mean, I'm sorry, it's like one
- 2:56Speaker 4: or two a day right now, baby, buyer cell.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Now we got the uh we got the week one.
- 3:01Speaker 4: I thought that was a week one by TMZ with
- 3:02Speaker 4: the arm around the party and the Super Bowl pregame party.
- 3:06Speaker 1: That wasn't much to me.
- 3:07Speaker 4: And we got yesterday Diana and her husband on Mother's Day,
- 3:11Speaker 4: So that was an interesting one. So buy er cell,
- 3:13Speaker 4: We're gonna get at least one more league today from
- 3:15Speaker 4: TMZ because that's our pacing guys.
- 3:17Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, arman, I'm gonna sell. I'm gonna
- 3:21Speaker 3: sell because I think they're gonna wait till like Thursday
- 3:23Speaker 3: or Friday, right, Like I think they have it regimented
- 3:26Speaker 3: out where like they give twenty four hours notice of hey,
- 3:30Speaker 3: do you want to talk yet?
- 3:32Speaker 1: Yeah, do you want to talk yet? We got more?
- 3:33Speaker 3: We got one more, We got one more, we got
- 3:36Speaker 3: one more, because it just appears that there's a I
- 3:39Speaker 3: don't know that there's a loaded smoking gun that they
- 3:42Speaker 3: have here at the end. I mean, I think we've
- 3:43Speaker 3: seen enough of them, sure, sure, guy, But but they
- 3:48Speaker 3: they are in a position where they're trying to keep
- 3:51Speaker 3: it in the news cycle. And now it almost feels
- 3:54Speaker 3: like the Vince Carter meme of I got one more
- 3:56Speaker 3: in me right, like, yeah, I and I was as
- 3:59Speaker 3: hot as anybody on the story.
- 4:01Speaker 1: Drew even I'm starting to sell.
- 4:04Speaker 3: Like the picture of her getting the kiss from the
- 4:06Speaker 3: husband on Mother's Day, like okay, I mean like that
- 4:10Speaker 3: of his children.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Come on, let's be well.
- 4:12Speaker 4: That felt a little new and significant at least to
- 4:15Speaker 4: what we the rest of the story that was more
- 4:17Speaker 4: significant than there's a pictures fair, No doubt that's.
- 4:21Speaker 1: The first we've heard from them.
- 4:22Speaker 4: But but I get your point, Billy, I mean, this
- 4:24Speaker 4: is really just we're just looking for any old note
- 4:27Speaker 4: now in the hallway to see that relationship is still
- 4:29Speaker 4: alive from Jimmy and Jane.
- 4:32Speaker 3: And maybe maybe the pregnant boat ride like that just
- 4:36Speaker 3: might be too much of a cap that. I don't
- 4:37Speaker 3: know anything else is gonna get me. Yeah, that's our
- 4:40Speaker 3: more interested in it. Yeah, that's our limit, right Like
- 4:43Speaker 3: that to me? Is?
- 4:44Speaker 4: Uh?
- 4:44Speaker 1: That to me is you? You? You won?
- 4:46Speaker 3: Like you caught seven months pregnant, six seven months pregnant,
- 4:49Speaker 3: whatever it is, six seven months pregnant walking onto.
- 4:51Speaker 1: A boat renting it to hang out with the coach
- 4:53Speaker 1: of the Patriots. I think we won. I think we
- 4:56Speaker 1: got the best evidence that we're gonna get.
- 4:58Speaker 3: I think we can cash it in its pretty before
- 5:00Speaker 3: we have to see Drew, like they said, and Friends
- 5:03Speaker 3: with Benefits. Why don't they ever make a movie that
- 5:04Speaker 3: happens after the big kiss.
- 5:06Speaker 1: That's a great point. I don't want to see that
- 5:08Speaker 1: one doubt. What's for dinner? Hunt. Yeah, we know what
- 5:11Speaker 1: happens in that one. We don't need to see that one.
- 5:13Speaker 3: So before we get there with page six, we can
- 5:15Speaker 3: calm it down and just call me.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Number one headline.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we've had had But to your point, though,
- 5:21Speaker 2: the idea that the Patriots are going to get an
- 5:23Speaker 2: early season marquee game that they have to promote, I
- 5:26Speaker 2: don't know if they want to step into those waters.
- 5:28Speaker 3: I don't know, but I guess the best question would
- 5:31Speaker 3: be where did they open the season after the Orchids
- 5:35Speaker 3: of Asia incident? Oh? Yeah, well that died down well
- 5:38Speaker 3: and that you know what, I don't know that counts
- 5:40Speaker 3: because I think they ended up winning the Super Bowl.
- 5:42Speaker 1: They had playoff Yeah, there were playoff games there. Yeah,
- 5:44Speaker 1: they won. They won the super Bowl.
- 5:46Speaker 3: It was the AFC Championship game when he flew to
- 5:49Speaker 3: Kansas City and they ended up winning the Super Bowl,
- 5:50Speaker 3: so they would have hosted Night one of the season.
- 5:54Speaker 3: This is also just different because it's so unique. There's
- 5:57Speaker 3: never been a coach that is andizing. However, it is
- 6:01Speaker 3: with one of the coaches that you could possibly have
- 6:04Speaker 3: real interest in. And I think the biggest drop ends
- 6:08Speaker 3: up being now in three weeks.
- 6:09Speaker 1: When aj Brown gets traded on June first, Right.
- 6:12Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that way that might be the last big
- 6:15Speaker 3: drop or where this story finally kind of meets its maker,
- 6:20Speaker 3: because now that everyone's talked about it, it does feel
- 6:22Speaker 3: like it's, uh, we're really really trying to breathe some.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Oxygen into this one. Yep. Yeah, that's a good point, Billy,
- 6:28Speaker 1: I like that, all right?
- 6:30Speaker 4: We could we have buy ourselves in the uh on
- 6:32Speaker 4: the YouTube comments.
- 6:33Speaker 1: If you guys want to.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Judge, go buy ourselves eight seven seven four or else
- 6:37Speaker 2: start on the YouTube comments.
- 6:39Speaker 1: We can see those as well.
- 6:40Speaker 4: Yeah, and I like those, So make sure you're chiming
- 6:42Speaker 4: in always any way. You can a great community here
- 6:45Speaker 4: on the YouTube x Facebook buy ourself. Mike Parsons wins
- 6:48Speaker 4: Comeback Player of the Year this coming year. That's from
- 6:50Speaker 4: Mike Whitt. Now, comeback Player of the Year. Will he
- 6:53Speaker 4: be hurt enough like long enough out guys to win
- 6:56Speaker 4: or in at the right time? Is there a little
- 6:57Speaker 4: bit of something there because you know it might start
- 7:00Speaker 4: the season, might not Comeback Player of the Year.
- 7:03Speaker 1: What do you guys think Comeback Player of the Year.
- 7:08Speaker 2: I don't, It's it's more of a it's a narrative
- 7:12Speaker 2: thing and coming back, but he's such an elite player
- 7:17Speaker 2: that you expect him to be a leap player again,
- 7:19Speaker 2: he doesn't have that, you know, Reis or Riches kind
- 7:22Speaker 2: of element.
- 7:22Speaker 1: I don't think he missed it enough last year, right.
- 7:24Speaker 3: I don't think he did either. No, I don't know
- 7:26Speaker 3: that that necessarily matters as much. I'm trying to think.
- 7:29Speaker 3: The bigger one for me is there's always a big
- 7:31Speaker 3: quarterback that ends up getting hurt.
- 7:33Speaker 1: And who on earth could I think of?
- 7:35Speaker 3: Who on earth coming back from the guy that's won
- 7:38Speaker 3: three of the last six Super Bowls blowing out every
- 7:41Speaker 3: part of his knee. I'm surprised Pat Mahomes isn't like
- 7:45Speaker 3: a minus two ten favorite.
- 7:46Speaker 1: That's true back player.
- 7:47Speaker 2: That's a good point because that's the narrative, But it
- 7:50Speaker 2: has to be like career threatening, right, And Michael Parson's
- 7:52Speaker 2: like you expect him to come back and play at
- 7:54Speaker 2: a high level.
- 7:54Speaker 1: How crazy is that true?
- 7:56Speaker 3: What would you have thought about that when you first
- 7:58Speaker 3: started covering ball, that a twenty cl would just be
- 8:00Speaker 3: like the commonplace.
- 8:03Speaker 1: Pictures with Tommy John like either.
- 8:06Speaker 4: Fixed like Alex Smith had the crazy injury or obviously
- 8:09Speaker 4: almost being being dead on the field another big one threshold.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Now to make light, it.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Just doesn't seem like there's that juice there, right Because
- 8:19Speaker 2: did people talk about Rogers being comeback Player of the
- 8:21Speaker 2: Year at one point coming back from an injury or something?
- 8:23Speaker 3: I didn't off the Achilles. There was there was the conversation.
- 8:27Speaker 3: I guess I can't remember who exactly ended up winning
- 8:29Speaker 3: it that year, but he wasn't He wasn't lights out,
- 8:31Speaker 3: he wasn't game changing.
- 8:32Speaker 1: The other The interesting.
- 8:33Speaker 3: Couple here is I look at Potato Sportsbook for the odds, uh,
- 8:38Speaker 3: Michael Parsons has better shorter odds to win Defensive Player
- 8:41Speaker 3: of the Year than comeback players.
- 8:43Speaker 1: That's more likely.
- 8:44Speaker 3: My spoiler alert would be he wins Defensive Player the year,
- 8:46Speaker 3: he's probably also winning comeback player, right Like, if he
- 8:49Speaker 3: has that kind of season, then there would be the
- 8:52Speaker 3: shot he's eight to one to win Defensive Player of
- 8:53Speaker 3: the Year, twelve to one twin comeback Player of the years.
- 8:56Speaker 3: So he's on these third on the list right there,
- 8:59Speaker 3: right there in the middle stuff it. I think my
- 9:01Speaker 3: favorite one is Kyler Murray sandwiching Mahomes and Parsons because
- 9:05Speaker 3: what's Kyler Murray coming back from sucking?
- 9:08Speaker 1: Yeah? I was gonna say, like, he's not good. I
- 9:10Speaker 1: thought I thought we tried to.
- 9:11Speaker 3: I thought we tried to get eradicate that one when
- 9:14Speaker 3: we tried to give it to Baker Mayfield for just
- 9:16Speaker 3: being mid and then oh, he's actually good.
- 9:18Speaker 1: He's the comeback.
- 9:19Speaker 4: Yes, where I thought I forgot something. I was like,
- 9:21Speaker 4: I'm not gonna say anything. I must have forgotten something
- 9:23Speaker 4: that happened to Kyler. I'm like, what is he coming back?
- 9:26Speaker 4: I want to he he had a little bit of
- 9:28Speaker 4: a foot thing. I believe last year that that kept
- 9:30Speaker 4: him out of games.
- 9:31Speaker 3: But I mean they felt it seemed like they were
- 9:34Speaker 3: kind of into playing Jacoby Brissette regardless of whatever foot
- 9:37Speaker 3: thing was happening with Kyler Murray.
- 9:39Speaker 1: A year ago.
- 9:39Speaker 4: The League papers and Fred Warner though it seemed like
- 9:41Speaker 4: the pretty a couple options. Okay, buy er sell Pete
- 9:45Speaker 4: really quick arm and buyer sell your guy. Yanis will
- 9:47Speaker 4: still be a buck in the charadersn't go anywhere. Yes, guys,
- 9:49Speaker 4: we had to pour yesterday and shams shams report the
- 9:53Speaker 4: bust selling or looking for again.
- 9:57Speaker 2: Jimmy Haslam said, like two weeks ago last week? Was
- 10:03Speaker 2: it last week? I thought he'd said he had said before, like,
- 10:05Speaker 2: we're either going to trade him or he's going to
- 10:06Speaker 2: accept the extension.
- 10:07Speaker 3: West Eton said that during the season in the interview
- 10:10Speaker 3: with Ramona Shell.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, so we're either going to trade it.
- 10:13Speaker 2: So that's been known, and it's known that they fielded
- 10:17Speaker 2: or entertained offers at the deadline. So the story is
- 10:22Speaker 2: Bucks are open for business listening to offers and people
- 10:25Speaker 2: ideas about trading. Honest, well if they weren't, they it's not.
- 10:30Speaker 3: Practice, then they would be Nico Harrison and they would
- 10:32Speaker 3: be getting their ass fired, thank you.
- 10:34Speaker 1: So is that a story, like I guess it is.
- 10:39Speaker 1: It is open for business?
- 10:40Speaker 2: Well, yeah, now if you're And he's also positing that
- 10:43Speaker 2: they're going to be talks at the COMBINEEP at the
- 10:46Speaker 2: NBA Combine and that the Bucks want to have an
- 10:48Speaker 2: idea before the draft, which is what.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Five weeks away. That sounds about right, yea or something
- 10:54Speaker 1: like that. I just I guess it's a story.
- 10:57Speaker 2: It's shoveling coal into the furnace, but it's a Hey, Margaret,
- 11:00Speaker 2: did you see the Bucks are gonna listen to people
- 11:02Speaker 2: who want to trade for your honest as they throw
- 11:04Speaker 2: proposals at them.
- 11:05Speaker 3: Duh, yeah, that's kind of how it goes, like and Drew,
- 11:08Speaker 3: it's a story for new Trier's favorite who has to
- 11:12Speaker 3: be able to try to keep some oxygen and keep
- 11:16Speaker 3: his super cool hair into the conversation about it, because
- 11:20Speaker 3: I mean Sham's yesterday when he says the quote unquote report.
- 11:24Speaker 3: Cause again, there's nothing in there that Jim Osarski or
- 11:28Speaker 3: Eric Name haven't had in a story.
- 11:31Speaker 1: For weeks now. I have had for weeks now.
- 11:34Speaker 3: And they've also gotten quotes from people that are decision
- 11:38Speaker 3: makers and the honest, and not one of those has
- 11:41Speaker 3: ever been infused into any bit of the ESPN story. Like,
- 11:45Speaker 3: So the part of the reporting is, honestly what I despised,
- 11:48Speaker 3: more than the context of it, the content of it.
- 11:51Speaker 1: I actually appreciate. This is what you do.
- 11:54Speaker 3: You see what market rate is and if indeed you
- 11:56Speaker 3: really feel like you want to push the push your
- 12:00Speaker 3: finger down and say, hey man, no, we are going
- 12:02Speaker 3: to try to build this thing. Give us a chance
- 12:05Speaker 3: to show you what we can build. Give us a
- 12:06Speaker 3: chance to show you this, or you hear the trade
- 12:09Speaker 3: offers and you say, you know what, not getting better
- 12:11Speaker 3: than that. Let's get out now, that's that's business. And instead,
- 12:16Speaker 3: as Shams is getting ushered off of the McAfee show, Yesterda,
- 12:19Speaker 3: he goes, wait, wait, wait, do you guys want to
- 12:21Speaker 3: ask me about Yannis?
- 12:23Speaker 1: Yeah? You guys, you guys want to ask me about Yannis,
- 12:25Speaker 1: and Pat.
- 12:25Speaker 3: Just like laughs He's like, go ahead, Bud, Yeah, go
- 12:28Speaker 3: play in your sand Go play in your Yanna sandbox.
- 12:31Speaker 1: Do it, do what you have to. Even even joked
- 12:34Speaker 1: about it. At the end of it. Mcfee's like, I.
- 12:36Speaker 3: Appreciate you making sure that you, you know, keep keep
- 12:39Speaker 3: shoveling that Yannis call hey, champs. At some point he's
- 12:41Speaker 3: gonna get traded, Bud, at some point he's gonna get traded,
- 12:44Speaker 3: and you're finally gonna be right on that.
- 12:45Speaker 1: I kept him realizing. And then not only that.
- 12:47Speaker 4: In the ESPN article, buried in paragraph twelve was oh,
- 12:51Speaker 4: by the way, the Bucks are also leaving the door
- 12:52Speaker 4: open and pursue major trade to persuade Yanna's to stay
- 12:55Speaker 4: once again, allow a horse to work parallel pets, So.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Basically they're they're there. The story is.
- 13:01Speaker 4: Also that they might you know, trying to actually be
- 13:04Speaker 4: buyers and trade for somebody, But that's buried in Paragua
- 13:07Speaker 4: Grab twelve. The fact is that either one could happen,
- 13:11Speaker 4: and that wasn't the headline, of course, So we still
- 13:13Speaker 4: don't really know much about what will happen. And this
- 13:15Speaker 4: idea that they wouldn't be taking offers or at least
- 13:17Speaker 4: listening is is ludicrous anyway.
- 13:19Speaker 1: Of course they're gonna listen to what people are of course, and.
- 13:22Speaker 2: They're gonna measure them against the offers they got back
- 13:25Speaker 2: at the deadline, right, and so they have that they're
- 13:28Speaker 2: getting all the information.
- 13:29Speaker 1: There's more information in my night last night.
- 13:31Speaker 2: I know it's not game balls are kicks to the
- 13:33Speaker 2: balls Monday, but I appreciate that Ozarski and name the
- 13:39Speaker 2: two main local guys that cover the bucks for us
- 13:41Speaker 2: and provide us information. They're not chasing that stick, no, right,
- 13:45Speaker 2: And it's like they don't have to react to that
- 13:46Speaker 2: every time now the TV stations locally do because like,
- 13:49Speaker 2: hey it's a new report and like, well, yeah, okay,
- 13:51Speaker 2: the bucks are open for the bucks have been open
- 13:53Speaker 2: for business forever, right, well, and.
- 13:55Speaker 1: That kills me.
- 13:56Speaker 2: And again I go back to when I was working
- 13:58Speaker 2: at a newspaper back in the day. There was this
- 14:00Speaker 2: guy that wrote for USA Today named Hel Bodley, kind
- 14:02Speaker 2: of a grandfatherly guy, covered baseball for a long time.
- 14:05Speaker 2: How body came out with a thing one time saying
- 14:08Speaker 2: that this was in the time when they were talking
- 14:10Speaker 2: about contraction and relocations and stuff, and how Bodily had
- 14:13Speaker 2: this thing, baseball is going to realign, and he basically
- 14:16Speaker 2: said they were going to be new divisions and one
- 14:18Speaker 2: of the divisions was going to be the Brewers in
- 14:20Speaker 2: a division with the Rays, the Marlins, the Expos, and
- 14:24Speaker 2: the Blue.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Jays in the cast off division.
- 14:28Speaker 2: Basically, yeah, that was one of his divisions that he
- 14:30Speaker 2: had in his proposal. And it hit USA Today and
- 14:34Speaker 2: our editors like got all excited about it, and they're like, hey,
- 14:36Speaker 2: you guys gonna write about this today. I'm like, why
- 14:38Speaker 2: would I write about that? Bud Seeley is the acting
- 14:41Speaker 2: interim Commissioner for life. He's going to put his own
- 14:44Speaker 2: franchise that he's bled for into this island of misfit toys, Like, well,
- 14:49Speaker 2: can you call about and get a comment?
- 14:51Speaker 1: Why would I?
- 14:51Speaker 3: I'm not bothering him interrupt.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Chase the Stick and we didn't want to chase the stick.
- 14:58Speaker 2: And it's like, well, all right, I do have something
- 15:01Speaker 2: else to call Bud about, so I call I guess
- 15:03Speaker 2: I'll ask and all right. So the code that we
- 15:05Speaker 2: had was that Bud, there was a guy another writer
- 15:08Speaker 2: for the AP National Baseball writer who I shouldn't name him,
- 15:11Speaker 2: but I will.
- 15:12Speaker 1: His name was Ron Blum. Buds.
- 15:14Speaker 2: Bud's pet nickname for that guy was that guy's a
- 15:16Speaker 2: demented moron. You know, that's just a moron, a demented moron.
- 15:20Speaker 2: And I actually use that for my buddy Homer because
- 15:23Speaker 2: he Bud referred to Homer as that a few times.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Too, So so the code became.
- 15:27Speaker 2: You know, Bud would be venting to me and he'd say,
- 15:29Speaker 2: what what's with your buddy Homer down the doll And
- 15:32Speaker 2: I'd be like, is he getting the Ron Blumb Award? Yeah,
- 15:34Speaker 2: he's a demented moron too, So demented moron became this
- 15:38Speaker 2: phrase for me and Hardcourt because somebody did something stupid,
- 15:41Speaker 2: like you're a demented moron, I called, But about something else,
- 15:44Speaker 2: I'm like, hate, Bud, what about this? How bodily things?
- 15:47Speaker 2: Oh geez, I'm like, is he the new Ron Blum.
- 15:50Speaker 2: Oh well he's a moron because that's so he's like,
- 15:52Speaker 2: there's no way, and we just laughed about it, and
- 15:55Speaker 2: I thankfully I resisted and we didn't have to put
- 15:58Speaker 2: anything in print about the rumor because there was absolutely
- 16:01Speaker 2: no way, like there's nothing to it. So it was
- 16:04Speaker 2: it would be stupid for us to give it oxygen
- 16:06Speaker 2: and even like does let's just let it die, right
- 16:09Speaker 2: and no one's there's not people. I just on its face,
- 16:12Speaker 2: people could see how stupid that was, because how does
- 16:14Speaker 2: that help in term of time zones and travel.
- 16:16Speaker 3: And like anything, everybody reading it with a brain would
- 16:19Speaker 3: say that makes zero.
- 16:20Speaker 2: Sense, zero sense, and especially since Bud would be the
- 16:23Speaker 2: guy masterminding this, He's not going to put the Brewers
- 16:26Speaker 2: into this division that where it makes no sense, no
- 16:28Speaker 2: regional rivalry. There's going to be in a division with
- 16:31Speaker 2: no team from Chicago, no team from Minnesota, no team.
- 16:34Speaker 1: You get no points. Us we are all dumber for
- 16:36Speaker 1: listening to this exif.
- 16:38Speaker 2: So the idea of that travels and chasing the sticks,
- 16:42Speaker 2: even if it's from an air quotes like reputable outlet,
- 16:45Speaker 2: like it was like a national outlet, it's not always great.
- 16:47Speaker 2: It's now and that's where I struggle, and that's where
- 16:50Speaker 2: I really struggle with with with the sham's part of
- 16:53Speaker 2: the reporting here, because there's been some exceptional reporting on it. Obviously,
- 16:57Speaker 2: Jim and Jim and Eric do do their thing, and
- 16:59Speaker 2: they do it as well. Lori Nickel actually again got
- 17:01Speaker 2: like multiple sessions of quotes from Jannis. Sam Amick went
- 17:05Speaker 2: and interviewed him walking out and actually again had quotes
- 17:08Speaker 2: from Yannis about it.
- 17:10Speaker 3: There's not one time where the quote unquote most important
- 17:14Speaker 3: news breaker and information guy in basketball I've ever seen
- 17:19Speaker 3: talking to the guy other than when he was getting
- 17:21Speaker 3: bench during the celebrity game. And then again, you want
- 17:24Speaker 3: to talk about one of our other problems, Drew, the
- 17:26Speaker 3: guy is in the celebrity game. What are we doing
- 17:29Speaker 3: here like that? You want to you want to tell
- 17:31Speaker 3: me that this guy.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Is supposed to be something that wouldn't happened back in
- 17:35Speaker 2: the old days. There would have been a line there
- 17:38Speaker 2: that you're.
- 17:38Speaker 3: Not because they want to make him, they want to
- 17:41Speaker 3: make him the new WOJ and you're just never All
- 17:44Speaker 3: they did was transfer the center. They transferred the sender
- 17:50Speaker 3: where you would send the email and it would go
- 17:52Speaker 3: right to WOJ. Now it gets redirected to shams and
- 17:54Speaker 3: then he copy and paste. Yep, you're right, you're right.
- 17:58Speaker 1: Eight seven. Let's do some more buying and selling throughout
- 18:01Speaker 1: the day.
- 18:02Speaker 2: When we come back, we've reached half time already, Time
- 18:05Speaker 2: to make our adjustments, time to eat it and uncrustable.
- 18:07Speaker 1: I need one a couple of orange slices.
- 18:09Speaker 2: It's it's not cold out, but if you want to, Billy,
- 18:12Speaker 2: you can go sit in the sauna.
- 18:14Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I'm gonna do a little contrast,
- 18:16Speaker 3: a little loose yep, uh wut.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Dolph is gonna join us next. It's gonna get up
- 18:21Speaker 1: to seventy today. Yeah, it's gonna be half.
- 18:22Speaker 4: But it's forty right now. So you're right, there is
- 18:24Speaker 4: a dichotomy there. It will be seventy two.
- 18:26Speaker 1: Yeah. Then all right, So Dolph is gonna be in next.
- 18:30Speaker 2: We will chat with him. We'll continue to take your
- 18:32Speaker 2: buy our cell props. We haven't even scratched the surface yet.
- 18:35Speaker 2: You're in the Huddle, Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Rolling along
- 18:43Speaker 2: the Tuesday edition of The Huddle Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin,
- 18:46Speaker 2: Drew Billy Arman joined by our halftime correspondent from Trinity College.
- 18:50Speaker 1: It's got dolphin.
- 18:52Speaker 5: Yeah, my souvendir from Dublin, Trinity College, which I didn't
- 18:56Speaker 5: know anything about, but it's like five hundred years old.
- 18:58Speaker 1: Whoa. And if you if you know, if you.
- 19:00Speaker 5: Watch Harry Potter movies, you see the scene with that
- 19:03Speaker 5: iconic library with the books called up the ceiling. That
- 19:05Speaker 5: was what it's modeled on. They have that library at
- 19:08Speaker 5: Trinity College. So we got some I don't know. I
- 19:11Speaker 5: came back with just a Guinness shirt and all the
- 19:15Speaker 5: way at least somebody was studying a little bit. Now
- 19:17Speaker 5: I got one of those two. Hey, that was part
- 19:19Speaker 5: of the tour.
- 19:20Speaker 2: So by the way, I get back from Costa Rica
- 19:22Speaker 2: and I find myself passing people in the hall saying
- 19:25Speaker 2: oh la and stuff and just you know, but did
- 19:28Speaker 2: you come back with a brogue at all? And did
- 19:29Speaker 2: you come back with the love of Guinness? Because when
- 19:31Speaker 2: you have guinness in Dublin, you'll never have a better
- 19:33Speaker 2: Guinness than actually right there, it's in the water.
- 19:36Speaker 1: Yeah. I haven't.
- 19:38Speaker 5: I don't think I've any purchased any cans or bottles
- 19:40Speaker 5: of guinness here, but I have had a few on
- 19:42Speaker 5: tap since I got back from Ireland.
- 19:44Speaker 1: And it still is delicious.
- 19:45Speaker 5: It is it is now they'll tell you that, you
- 19:47Speaker 5: know it's crap over here, because it's what is it?
- 19:49Speaker 5: Is it past your eyes or homogenize whatever they do
- 19:51Speaker 5: do it here is different than how you get.
- 19:53Speaker 1: It is different. Oh wow, it is different, and it
- 19:55Speaker 1: is it is delicious there.
- 19:56Speaker 3: Guinness had to have been one of the biggest me
- 20:00Speaker 3: not what I was expecting drinks of all time, right right.
- 20:03Speaker 1: Sometimes you take a bite.
- 20:04Speaker 3: Of a food and you're like, that was not what
- 20:06Speaker 3: I was expecting. You think a drink a Guinness, and
- 20:09Speaker 3: I'm like, wow, okay, I was expecting this to be
- 20:11Speaker 3: a mocha. Instead, tastes like a like a light beer.
- 20:17Speaker 5: It's very light and we're conditioned, I think, as Americas,
- 20:20Speaker 5: to have that burn and that distinct flavor of a.
- 20:22Speaker 1: Beer, and that ain't it. No, when you have a Guinness, you're.
- 20:25Speaker 4: Not getting into creameries and stuff like David Baktieri, are you.
- 20:28Speaker 4: I don't know if you guys saw that on Twitter yesterday,
- 20:30Speaker 4: David Baktieri is trying to get it by a creamery.
- 20:33Speaker 1: I guess I start making some yogurt.
- 20:36Speaker 4: I thought It was funny because the first the first
- 20:38Speaker 4: sweet was like, does anyone know anyone in a dairy
- 20:40Speaker 4: farm or anyone have a dairy farmer?
- 20:42Speaker 1: Of course, you played in Wisconsin.
- 20:44Speaker 4: Wisconsin and your followers, so you have hundreds of people
- 20:47Speaker 4: like saying, yeah, my family's got when I work in
- 20:49Speaker 4: a farm.
- 20:49Speaker 1: And then he's like are they for sale? I'm like,
- 20:52Speaker 1: what are you trying to do here?
- 20:53Speaker 4: Do you think someone say yeah, come buy my farm
- 20:55Speaker 4: and creamery on Twitter?
- 20:57Speaker 3: I think there would be some I think there's somebody
- 20:59Speaker 3: would say, hey, hand raised the air, big Dave NFL.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Guys gonna come and get us them out of here.
- 21:03Speaker 1: I think we'll do that.
- 21:04Speaker 4: If anyone's wondering, it's David Bocht yogurt, okay, coming to
- 21:07Speaker 4: a store near so it's specifically yogurt. Then he wanted
- 21:11Speaker 4: to start making yogurt. I don't know if he's just
- 21:13Speaker 4: bored on Twitter yesterday, but that was what you X.
- 21:16Speaker 4: That's what I always thought.
- 21:17Speaker 5: Yogurt happened naturally if he just you know, in the refrigerator
- 21:20Speaker 5: long enough, it just turns.
- 21:22Speaker 1: When yogurt goes bad.
- 21:23Speaker 2: How can you tell because it's kind of already it's
- 21:26Speaker 2: predisposed to be either way.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Past eyes. You know, I love it.
- 21:32Speaker 2: But anyway, the Guinness thing, the Guinness discussion is funny because.
- 21:36Speaker 1: It's it's fun to go there. I mean that that
- 21:38Speaker 1: brewery is ancient.
- 21:39Speaker 4: Uh.
- 21:40Speaker 1: And when you see Dublin feels like a small town.
- 21:42Speaker 1: It's true.
- 21:43Speaker 5: It's very compact, easily, not a lot of like tall
- 21:46Speaker 5: buildings or anything.
- 21:46Speaker 1: It's not very walkable. It feels like you're in a
- 21:48Speaker 1: small town.
- 21:49Speaker 5: Have you seen the Guinness uh series on streaming about
- 21:53Speaker 5: the Guinness family. I don't know how much of it
- 21:55Speaker 5: is true, but after the old man died, these you know,
- 21:57Speaker 5: the brothers and sisters are all kind of they're all
- 22:00Speaker 5: messed up. They all have serious problems. But on this brewer, Yeah,
- 22:03Speaker 5: it's a good show. Season one was last year and
- 22:05Speaker 5: enjoyed it very much.
- 22:06Speaker 1: Do we know what it is? What it's on?
- 22:08Speaker 5: You know, I should Billy, but you I'm into Netflix.
- 22:12Speaker 5: I think it might be Netflixt.
- 22:13Speaker 3: Okay, sure, because I am trying to find a show
- 22:16Speaker 3: that I'm actually going to watch. Yeah, you'll enjoy that one.
- 22:18Speaker 3: Because I struggle. Then I find a show. I get
- 22:21Speaker 3: enough recommendations. I watched the first episode and then I'm like,
- 22:24Speaker 3: oh that's sweet, that was good, and then you're done,
- 22:26Speaker 3: and I totally forget to go watch it again.
- 22:28Speaker 1: So I need to watch the first time right now.
- 22:31Speaker 1: Oh yeah, a lot of people are watching that one, right,
- 22:33Speaker 1: that's a good one.
- 22:34Speaker 5: The new Steve Carell one Rooster is pretty enjoyable, where
- 22:37Speaker 5: he goes back to he's he's like a he's a
- 22:40Speaker 5: trash novel author, but he goes back to this college
- 22:43Speaker 5: university to teach.
- 22:44Speaker 2: I'm to the point where I might as well just
- 22:45Speaker 2: cancel streaming service because I don't even look at I
- 22:47Speaker 2: don't mean, I can't remember the last time I fired up.
- 22:49Speaker 2: Now that the Badgers have been done playing hoops, Peacock
- 22:53Speaker 2: haven't opened it. Never look at any I don't look
- 22:55Speaker 2: at it, very very rarely fire up Netflix.
- 22:58Speaker 3: I'm glad you said that about Peacock because all the
- 22:59Speaker 3: I actually alerted myself to cancel mine because all of
- 23:03Speaker 3: a sudden, the little guy bumped it on the preset button.
- 23:05Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a second, we don't need.
- 23:07Speaker 3: Anything on here. We're gonna save that ten ninety nine.
- 23:09Speaker 3: We don't need to watch any episodes of Parks and
- 23:11Speaker 3: Wreck right now.
- 23:12Speaker 5: We'll just cancel any time, right and then pick it
- 23:14Speaker 5: back up once ball Star follow.
- 23:16Speaker 3: It back up and you start figuring out what day
- 23:19Speaker 3: of the schedules are, and you know that week we'll
- 23:21Speaker 3: end up buying it.
- 23:21Speaker 1: That's funny because I might be tempted to dip into
- 23:24Speaker 1: the Kevin Hart roast on Netflix.
- 23:27Speaker 2: But I've already seen a clip. I've seen the clips already,
- 23:29Speaker 2: so man, no need.
- 23:31Speaker 1: I was gonna say.
- 23:31Speaker 3: We're also in such a good clip society that I
- 23:33Speaker 3: struggle watching a school show. I mean, like I know,
- 23:36Speaker 3: I am, I am problem a on these short attentions. Man,
- 23:39Speaker 3: that I got about three to four minutes and then
- 23:41Speaker 3: you start losing me.
- 23:42Speaker 2: I've never watched Land, man, I don't think, but I've
- 23:45Speaker 2: seen so many clips.
- 23:46Speaker 5: That's the one I don't have. I don't have Paramount.
- 23:48Speaker 5: Plus I hear that's a great show, but you know,
- 23:50Speaker 5: we got to talk.
- 23:51Speaker 2: But I've seen so many scenes from it on clips
- 23:53Speaker 2: that I feel like I've watched them.
- 23:55Speaker 5: I've really been getting into the documentaries lately. Watched the
- 23:58Speaker 5: mel Brooks two part documentary Fantastic, the George Carlin one
- 24:03Speaker 5: where they mentioned him getting arrested at Summerfest. He mentions
- 24:05Speaker 5: it that one was pretty interesting. So I really love
- 24:08Speaker 5: those documentaries. You know, the the older you get, you
- 24:12Speaker 5: you want to be closer to uh you know a
- 24:15Speaker 5: comfort zone.
- 24:15Speaker 3: Yeah, you know in the style with uh huh what's
- 24:19Speaker 3: the uh is the music?
- 24:21Speaker 1: We talked about it with Matt Miller last week. Movie South.
- 24:24Speaker 3: Is the biopic hitting the country music scene yet? Or
- 24:27Speaker 3: are we still bouncing around with like the the Michael
- 24:30Speaker 3: Jackson one.
- 24:30Speaker 1: Everybody's all excited and people loved it.
- 24:36Speaker 3: Critics hated it, But I feel like that's anything that's good,
- 24:39Speaker 3: Like anything that generally is good and enjoyable. The critics
- 24:42Speaker 3: will say it's not artsy enough for the biopicks.
- 24:44Speaker 1: Really haven't hit country music. I mean unless you go
- 24:46Speaker 1: way back, you know.
- 24:47Speaker 4: Less Johnny Cash ones and things like Yeah, that was
- 24:50Speaker 4: Walk the Line. That was two thousand and five, it's
- 24:52Speaker 4: been twenty years. The other great ones the AI Internet
- 24:55Speaker 4: is telling me to see is coal Miner's daughter sure
- 24:58Speaker 4: about Loretta Lynn.
- 25:00Speaker 5: Space second Jessica Lang. Correct, They did the Patsy Clin
- 25:05Speaker 5: thing too.
- 25:05Speaker 4: And then Sweet Dreams, which was Patsy Cline right exactly.
- 25:10Speaker 1: There was one of Hank Williams Senior a while back.
- 25:14Speaker 4: Yeah, what was that you're talking about blade? Uh no,
- 25:19Speaker 4: not Blaze. Hold on, you're talking about your cheating heart.
- 25:21Speaker 5: Your cheating heart there, Yeah, that one I remember.
- 25:24Speaker 2: There was also one twenty fifteen. I saw the Light
- 25:27Speaker 2: primary modern biopic of Hank Williams.
- 25:29Speaker 1: Oh, okay, I see where do for one?
- 25:31Speaker 3: So maybe we are I will say I remember Walk
- 25:33Speaker 3: the Line, and that was probably maybe a movie that
- 25:35Speaker 3: was just a little over my skis on the rating
- 25:38Speaker 3: side when I was like eleven years old watching that
- 25:41Speaker 3: Witherspoon come on right, that was bringing an absolute fastball
- 25:45Speaker 3: in Nashville native by.
- 25:46Speaker 4: The way, Oh my gosh, and she's still living there
- 25:48Speaker 4: a lot. Yeah, I've got some people on the ground
- 25:51Speaker 4: there that tell me about it.
- 25:53Speaker 1: You've got Nashville insiders.
- 25:54Speaker 4: Now, my sister in law I used to live there
- 25:56Speaker 4: for exactly one year, and said she saw round About
- 25:59Speaker 4: and some of the But yeah, Billy, to your point,
- 26:03Speaker 4: what were we just talking?
- 26:04Speaker 1: Oh yeah, reads Weather, he's talking about your boots on
- 26:06Speaker 1: the ground in Nashville.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Yeah, what other cities do you got info? You got
- 26:11Speaker 3: informants literally, boots on the ground.
- 26:13Speaker 2: On Nashville, boots scooting. Yeah, that's funny, scooting all over
- 26:18Speaker 2: the place.
- 26:18Speaker 4: So if we're due for a country music bio pick,
- 26:20Speaker 4: I mean, who's the next legend that's matriculating, It's gotta
- 26:23Speaker 4: be Kenny, right.
- 26:23Speaker 5: Well, I think you have to have conflict in your life,
- 26:25Speaker 5: right and I'm trying to think of people in country.
- 26:28Speaker 5: So if they pick one, it's probably going to be
- 26:30Speaker 5: somebody maybe you won't know, or you won't know as well,
- 26:33Speaker 5: that's dealt with. Maybe Morgan Walling. I mean he's off
- 26:37Speaker 5: to a lot of drama even though he's a superstar
- 26:39Speaker 5: successful right now. I had a one on one with
- 26:42Speaker 5: a very pissed off Garth Brooks.
- 26:44Speaker 1: Did you really?
- 26:45Speaker 2: It was after he was zero for two with an
- 26:47Speaker 2: error in a spring training game against the Brewers. When
- 26:49Speaker 2: he's playing for the Podcases. He's throwing stuff into his
- 26:52Speaker 2: bag and he wasn't happy, and I just asked him,
- 26:54Speaker 2: you know, a couple of questions and got out of
- 26:56Speaker 2: his way. Dude, It's like, what do you expect you're
- 26:58Speaker 2: looking at big league pitching? Exactly what do you expect
- 27:01Speaker 2: you're going to do? The fact that you're not even
- 27:02Speaker 2: just grossly embarrassing your So this.
- 27:05Speaker 3: Wasn't Will Ferrell's spring training version where he went around
- 27:07Speaker 3: with all the other teams.
- 27:09Speaker 1: Garth wiz a couple of different years with different teams. Yeah, yeah,
- 27:12Speaker 1: he spent years at one point I think.
- 27:16Speaker 4: So yeah, yeah, yeah, multiple times from ninety eight to
- 27:21Speaker 4: two thousand and four promoters teammates for Kids Foundation, sewed
- 27:24Speaker 4: up for the Padres, Mets and Royals, and uh he
- 27:27Speaker 4: got a few hits over numerous atats, which is funny
- 27:29Speaker 4: to me because the charity thing is cool. He's one
- 27:31Speaker 4: of the most successful musicians of all time, but was
- 27:33Speaker 4: frustrated he couldn't be an athlete.
- 27:35Speaker 5: Right, so I always and he was an athlete in
- 27:37Speaker 5: high school and he was I believe he was a
- 27:39Speaker 5: full ride at Oklahoma State in track and field. Oh
- 27:42Speaker 5: wow there. Yeah, he's like javelin or something like that.
- 27:45Speaker 5: But I mean not not. He didn't get drafted in baseball.
- 27:48Speaker 4: Entertainers always want to be athletes, and athletes always when
- 27:50Speaker 4: we enter its true, it seems like athletes are entertainers
- 27:53Speaker 4: and all athletes want to be basketball players.
- 27:55Speaker 1: Are there you go?
- 27:56Speaker 3: That's generally where it ends up going to. Yeah, yeah,
- 27:59Speaker 3: Bieber's got some game that would be a good one.
- 28:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 28:03Speaker 3: J Cole actually like ditched making music to go play
- 28:07Speaker 3: basketball in China. A lot of guys, I know, master
- 28:12Speaker 3: p head game when uh, when the Little Bow Wow
- 28:14Speaker 3: versions came.
- 28:15Speaker 1: Early, Set went all in on trying to make a
- 28:17Speaker 1: rap career. I mean, whether or.
- 28:18Speaker 3: Not you believe it's Rod test only got suspended for
- 28:21Speaker 3: the NBA for a whole season so we could.
- 28:22Speaker 1: Start his rap crosses. I gotta I gotta make my album.
- 28:25Speaker 4: Sorry, Larry Man, I'll never get the story when he
- 28:29Speaker 4: was it was it with the Bulls when he he
- 28:31Speaker 4: wanted to save on a new home stereo system at
- 28:34Speaker 4: Best Buy, so we filled on an application just so
- 28:37Speaker 4: he could get a ten percent discount.
- 28:39Speaker 1: You play for the lovell met a world piece. I
- 28:42Speaker 1: love that energy. Yeah.
- 28:44Speaker 4: Now the best song of all time by an athlete
- 28:46Speaker 4: of course, Jumping the Stands by Robert Brooks.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, good winner. Armin had to get that poll
- 28:53Speaker 2: in there. That's too funny, too funny, all right. So Dolph,
- 28:57Speaker 2: with the changing of the season, in the passing of
- 29:01Speaker 2: time and the passing of the torts that we're seeing
- 29:03Speaker 2: it like Lebron is he done?
- 29:06Speaker 1: Is Rogers gonna come back? Likely?
- 29:07Speaker 2: It looks like it's trending towards Rodgers gonna come back
- 29:10Speaker 2: and play one more time for the Steelers. I thought
- 29:12Speaker 2: he should have walked off because his last playoff moment
- 29:14Speaker 2: was winning that that that game to get into the
- 29:17Speaker 2: playoffs for the Steelers Beaten, Like, you know, but Brady
- 29:25Speaker 2: went out, didn't Brady? Weren't They eight and nine and
- 29:27Speaker 2: made the playoffs his last year, like he won a
- 29:29Speaker 2: super Bowl.
- 29:30Speaker 3: But so his last year in New England, they make
- 29:32Speaker 3: the playoffs and they get run by I mean last
- 29:35Speaker 3: year in Tampa, they I think win the Super Bowl.
- 29:38Speaker 3: They go to the divisional round and then they get
- 29:40Speaker 3: drummed in the first round.
- 29:41Speaker 1: In his final I think they were like eight and
- 29:43Speaker 1: nine that year and still made the play won their division.
- 29:45Speaker 1: And he remembers those games right well. And that's the thing.
- 29:48Speaker 2: And we have this romanticizing that everybody's got to go
- 29:50Speaker 2: out like l Waited or Manning. Doesn't happen, no, right,
- 29:54Speaker 2: it's mostly like Jordan's stumbling around with the Wizards or
- 29:56Speaker 2: Willie May stumbling around with that you know, Matts and Mets. Yeah,
- 29:59Speaker 2: and and it's like when it's over, you don't want
- 30:02Speaker 2: it to be over. But at a certain point it's
- 30:04Speaker 2: going to be over.
- 30:06Speaker 5: Yeah, and with with Rogers, maybe it's that time for
- 30:09Speaker 5: two years. I don't think Lebron's going anywhere because I
- 30:11Speaker 5: think he truly believes he could still play a high level,
- 30:13Speaker 5: which obviously we saw at times of the playffs. Yeah,
- 30:16Speaker 5: and he thinks the Lakers if they're false, although he
- 30:18Speaker 5: said last night, I don't know if I'm coming back
- 30:20Speaker 5: here or where.
- 30:22Speaker 3: I think he's That was definitely his last game with
- 30:23Speaker 3: the Lakers. I mean that was about that way. Definitely
- 30:26Speaker 3: his last game with the Lakers. I don't think that
- 30:28Speaker 3: the two are on the same wavelength kind of timeline deal.
- 30:32Speaker 3: There's some fascinating ones. But he can when when motivated
- 30:37Speaker 3: into the playoffs, and you saw it throughout the year,
- 30:39Speaker 3: like he played a different style of basketball than he
- 30:42Speaker 3: has all his entire career and was still really effective.
- 30:45Speaker 3: He gets into the playoffs when they lose their two
- 30:47Speaker 3: best scorers and picks up where he left off.
- 30:50Speaker 1: But you can only do.
- 30:51Speaker 3: That for about three games, and then you need somebody
- 30:53Speaker 3: to come and shoulder most of the load because you
- 30:56Speaker 3: are at some point forty one years old and you're
- 30:58Speaker 3: just not gonna have that kind of win in this.
- 31:00Speaker 5: Which is say, he's probably gonna pick and choose where
- 31:02Speaker 5: he goes if he does come back Nicks.
- 31:04Speaker 1: Where you there it is they hit that ball. I
- 31:07Speaker 1: think the Knicks.
- 31:08Speaker 3: Knicks or Calves are the two places that make not
- 31:10Speaker 3: going to come to his least favorite city Milwaukee Memphis. Right,
- 31:14Speaker 3: and then wouldn't have to stay in the hotel. Yeah,
- 31:16Speaker 3: I mean that's the thing. If you're stay in one,
- 31:18Speaker 3: if you go play in one of those spots, Brown,
- 31:20Speaker 3: then you don't have to stay in the ass hotel
- 31:21Speaker 3: unless go and hang out.
- 31:23Speaker 4: Unless he can convince them and move to Nashville house
- 31:25Speaker 4: his original goal. Speaking in Asheville, He's like, why can't
- 31:27Speaker 4: they put this team in Nashville already?
- 31:29Speaker 1: That's joins the Grizzlies. Franklin. Remember when the Oilers moved
- 31:33Speaker 1: to Tennessee.
- 31:34Speaker 4: They were in Memphis for a year until the stadium
- 31:36Speaker 4: was done, right, I think played at the Liberty Bowl.
- 31:39Speaker 1: Crazy.
- 31:40Speaker 3: Last thing that Franklin Tennessee needs is another another star
- 31:43Speaker 3: to move in there, another big tag. It is pretty boogy, that's.
- 31:47Speaker 2: True, But we just and the expectations and we expect
- 31:50Speaker 2: them to keep winning and playing at you know.
- 31:52Speaker 3: You're right, though, Brady and Lebron have wrecked the curve
- 31:56Speaker 3: for all great stars where you think that you can
- 31:59Speaker 3: still be highly highly productive into your forties.
- 32:02Speaker 1: No one does that, right.
- 32:03Speaker 3: Mostly it's Drew Brees where you can't throw the ball
- 32:05Speaker 3: more than twenty.
- 32:06Speaker 2: Yards exactly, and like KD Steph Curry, like the injuries
- 32:10Speaker 2: and just the drop off.
- 32:12Speaker 1: Damn, Katie still looks good yep.
- 32:14Speaker 3: But when they can play, they are still as good
- 32:18Speaker 3: as they've been. But what is that a Toby Keiths song?
- 32:20Speaker 5: I'm I'm as good once as I ever was. I'm
- 32:25Speaker 5: not as good as I once was, but I'm good
- 32:26Speaker 5: once as I ever was.
- 32:27Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm gonna need a lot more help to
- 32:29Speaker 3: be able to get to that once right. I want
- 32:31Speaker 3: to burn that once in the elimination games for the
- 32:33Speaker 3: opponent not be having to carry the full load. The
- 32:36Speaker 3: KD one's fascinating because I think he's on a different
- 32:39Speaker 3: team because he blew up that Rockets team with the
- 32:41Speaker 3: burner thing where he was talking nonsense about all his
- 32:44Speaker 3: teammates and how these guys are idiots, and I hate
- 32:46Speaker 3: this guy. This guy can't pass just blowing people up online.
- 32:50Speaker 3: So he's probably gone, Lebron's probably gone. One of them
- 32:53Speaker 3: might go and play in Golden State, or maybe Steph
- 32:56Speaker 3: just ends his career there, and they're all gonna be
- 32:58Speaker 3: circled around the league finishing out their runs.
- 33:01Speaker 5: Barkley called it, and you know, I know it offended
- 33:07Speaker 5: Draymond a lot of words, but you know, they're cooked.
- 33:09Speaker 5: They're cooked, They're gonna they're gonna be a playing team
- 33:11Speaker 5: moving forward, you know, one last ride with Steve Kerr
- 33:14Speaker 5: next year and then it's pretty much over.
- 33:16Speaker 1: Man.
- 33:16Speaker 3: If Draymond Green would just laugh and just allow himself
- 33:21Speaker 3: to laugh, it would help.
- 33:22Speaker 1: He could have taken over for Charles Barkley by now.
- 33:24Speaker 3: Instead, he's got to keep playing basketball because he's just
- 33:26Speaker 3: not that good on Televisionable.
- 33:28Speaker 1: That's all what you mentioned, Drew, though, so true.
- 33:30Speaker 5: We forget about how these guys fade away, you know,
- 33:34Speaker 5: united far on the cold turf of the Gophers Gophers
- 33:38Speaker 5: football stadium.
- 33:39Speaker 1: And and and Babe Ruth.
- 33:41Speaker 5: I think he played for the Boston Braves, didn't he
- 33:43Speaker 5: at the end of his career, nobody and probably didn't
- 33:46Speaker 5: do much.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Because he was over the hill and.
- 33:50Speaker 3: Doesn't necessarily hit the same as each the best baseball
- 33:53Speaker 3: hitter that I had seen, just pure singles all throughout Seattle.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Yeah, Emma Smith airs on a Cardinals, same situation. Yeah.
- 33:59Speaker 4: I think a lot of it is because this group
- 34:02Speaker 4: of American NBA stars we've grown to love so much,
- 34:06Speaker 4: and a lot of people don't want that to end.
- 34:08Speaker 4: I really think that's what it is, because around the corner,
- 34:10Speaker 4: that same crop isn't coming up. I've tried to figure
- 34:13Speaker 4: out why that is what you're saying true, because it's
- 34:15Speaker 4: definitely true. We're trying to hold these guys at that
- 34:17Speaker 4: young standard because we don't want to believe it's about
- 34:19Speaker 4: to end and they're getting older. But that's the reality,
- 34:22Speaker 4: and there isn't that inspiring group of young American stars behind.
- 34:24Speaker 4: It was supposed to be Zion and Ja and it
- 34:27Speaker 4: just hasn't turned out that way. So maybe that's part
- 34:29Speaker 4: of it. Is that's the era that people don't want
- 34:31Speaker 4: the NBA to end.
- 34:32Speaker 1: Maybe it's Cooper Flag and Konkinipple. It could be. I
- 34:35Speaker 1: think it could. Con is definitely s g A right
- 34:38Speaker 1: now is next.
- 34:40Speaker 4: You know, it's ridiculously I agree, but it doesn't seem
- 34:42Speaker 4: like he excites people the way those guys did, even
- 34:44Speaker 4: though SGA produces you.
- 34:46Speaker 1: Know what I mean.
- 34:46Speaker 3: Also not an American superstar, right, The Canadian part is
- 34:51Speaker 3: a thing that America's hat. Yeah, but listen until until
- 34:55Speaker 3: they decide they fall in line and grab that fifty first.
- 34:58Speaker 3: That GA is yours, and that flopping act is up
- 35:01Speaker 3: there and down here.
- 35:03Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, what did we solve today? I didn't
- 35:06Speaker 1: even know. We just chopped it. But red hot Tim
- 35:08Speaker 1: not at a good point.
- 35:09Speaker 3: Wait, so you're trying to tell me Joe Dirt wasn't
- 35:12Speaker 3: a country music biopic.
- 35:13Speaker 1: There you go, it was.
- 35:16Speaker 5: I mean, the mullet and the mutton chops pretty damn impressive.
- 35:20Speaker 1: I thought it was more of a Tiger King documentary than.
- 35:22Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, preamble doll, thanks for popping in Trinity College. Yeah, halftime, Yes, indeed,

- 36:14Speaker 1: and Who's Not? And Billy brought to us by Donovan
- 36:17Speaker 1: Jorgenson Heating and Cooling. I'm thinking for who's hot, I
- 36:21Speaker 1: mean Aaron Ashby.
- 36:22Speaker 3: Ah phenomenal one, leading the leading Major League Baseball and
- 36:26Speaker 3: wins right yeah.
- 36:27Speaker 2: Now the brewers of one hundred and twenty four games left.
- 36:31Speaker 2: And I don't think Aaron Ashby is gonna win twenty
- 36:33Speaker 2: eight games, but he's on pace right.
- 36:36Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'll tell you he might pitch at one
- 36:38Speaker 3: hundred and twenty eight of them.
- 36:39Speaker 1: That guy has a rubber arm.
- 36:42Speaker 3: Drew, we talked about surgeries all of a sudden, somehow
- 36:45Speaker 3: giving guys superpowers and the old injuries that used to
- 36:49Speaker 3: be death nails to careers are just letting blips on
- 36:52Speaker 3: the radar. That shoulder procedure. I don't know if they
- 36:55Speaker 3: rubberize that thing. But my man throws every day.
- 36:57Speaker 1: It's just wild, wild, So he's hot.
- 37:00Speaker 2: The Mets are not hot, but they are now calling
- 37:02Speaker 2: up their top outfield prospect aj Ewing. They've reached that
- 37:05Speaker 2: point in the program where we need a little influx
- 37:07Speaker 2: and infusion of a talent and an excitement and a
- 37:10Speaker 2: positive news side.
- 37:11Speaker 1: Yeah, positive news side.
- 37:12Speaker 3: Oh well, and that also would mean that the mathematics
- 37:15Speaker 3: because the Spencer Spencer Kid Spencer Jones from the Yankees
- 37:19Speaker 3: game up. So does that mean that we're past the
- 37:23Speaker 3: threshold for service time because I would fit right around
- 37:27Speaker 3: May generally seemed like that time that you could start
- 37:29Speaker 3: bringing certain players up. Not thinking that's gonna happen with
- 37:32Speaker 3: a certain my day guy in the Milwaukee organization, but
- 37:35Speaker 3: it could be interesting. Oh, Cooper Pratt or Cooper Pratt
- 37:38Speaker 3: right now, that's we gotta get into that conversation because
- 37:40Speaker 3: I gotta buyer cell coming up on that one. Also
- 37:43Speaker 3: in the hot category, forty three points last night for
- 37:46Speaker 3: Donovan Mitchell and thirty nine of them in the second half.
- 37:50Speaker 3: Good folks that were sitting there with over nineteen and
- 37:52Speaker 3: a half points for Donovan Mitchell at the Potawatami Sports
- 37:55Speaker 3: Book looking at their sheet like, are you kid me?
- 37:57Speaker 3: Four points after twenty four minutes? Yeah, he up and
- 38:01Speaker 3: halves have some life. That series is two piece. Yeah.
- 38:03Speaker 4: And he's the guy that took some criticism last fule
- 38:05Speaker 4: games for his defensive situations.
- 38:07Speaker 2: Donovan Jorgenson is your the place for all HVAC needs?
- 38:10Speaker 1: Employee owned for forty years?
- 38:12Speaker 3: Yeah, And Drew, this is my favorite part about Donovan Jorgenson.
- 38:15Speaker 3: They do HVAC right. They don't also then do plumbing insiding.
- 38:20Speaker 3: They they're not just mastering a bunch of different things mastering.
- 38:24Speaker 3: They're locking in on HVAC and that's why they're the
- 38:26Speaker 3: largest employee owned one for forty plus.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 38:29Speaker 2: Speaking of that game and Donovan Mitchell, are you mindor
- 38:31Speaker 2: selling that the Pistons have a beef about the officiating
- 38:34Speaker 2: because the Pistons shot twelve free throws last night. Mitchell
- 38:36Speaker 2: was twelve for fifteen himself. Now, I didn't go to
- 38:39Speaker 2: the line, and so there's a lot of that. The
- 38:40Speaker 2: Lakers are bitching about the refs last night.
- 38:42Speaker 1: A lot of people have yeah in the lake.
- 38:44Speaker 3: I mean, I've never seen it Drew where the full
- 38:45Speaker 3: team huddled around the officials after the game like the
- 38:48Speaker 3: Lakers did after Game two, like.
- 38:49Speaker 1: Please, come on, are you not watching this?
- 38:51Speaker 3: Uh?
- 38:52Speaker 1: Guys flop in the NBA, And Charles Barkley said it.
- 38:55Speaker 3: I think it was on DP on this station a
- 38:57Speaker 3: couple of days ago, where he's like, flopping has been
- 38:59Speaker 3: happening for one hundred The flopping's been happening since I played.
- 39:02Speaker 3: Guys are always gonna embellish to try to get the call. However,
- 39:05Speaker 3: some have become so good at initiating the contact and
- 39:10Speaker 3: then making it appear as if they're getting blown over
- 39:14Speaker 3: that Mitchell is learning from the best. You paired Donovan
- 39:19Speaker 3: Mitchell with James Harden, and this is what you're gonna get.
- 39:21Speaker 3: He's gonna be able to get and draw a ton
- 39:23Speaker 3: of calls. But I didn't think it was I didn't
- 39:26Speaker 3: think it was poorly officiate last night. The other part
- 39:28Speaker 3: of it is Drew, I mean, and that's one of
- 39:30Speaker 3: the reasons why I think basketball real lovers love watching Detroit.
- 39:34Speaker 3: They play really really physical, they play really intense defense.
- 39:37Speaker 3: They're gonna get into your kitchen and they're gonna earn
- 39:40Speaker 3: some of those whistles. But Oklahoma City is different at it.
- 39:44Speaker 3: I mean, they're really really good at being able to
- 39:48Speaker 3: initiate contact. Shay is a master at it, and Chet
- 39:53Speaker 3: is as wiry as anybody, and he doesn't fight through
- 39:57Speaker 3: the contact like a Giannis or Wenby, so it looks
- 40:00Speaker 3: much worse when he gets hit.
- 40:01Speaker 1: Well, what do I say it, Billy?
- 40:02Speaker 4: A lot of it is bumper boats now, and you know,
- 40:04Speaker 4: we talk a lot about Julius Randall as well. It's
- 40:06Speaker 4: a lot of bumper boats out there, and that's part
- 40:08Speaker 4: of the game now. But it just seems to me
- 40:10Speaker 4: that there's more complaining about officials from the losing team.
- 40:13Speaker 4: Every day I'm putting on a shot sheet, there's an
- 40:15Speaker 4: article about somebody complaining about the officials. A lot of
- 40:18Speaker 4: sore loser talk. It seems like more in this playoffs
- 40:21Speaker 4: than I've ever remembered before. There's always press conference complaining
- 40:25Speaker 4: about officials whenever a team loses. For once, I'd like
- 40:27Speaker 4: to hear someone complain or compliment the officials or complain
- 40:30Speaker 4: when they win we're say when they lose.
- 40:32Speaker 1: You know, the officials were good.
- 40:33Speaker 2: At least Detroit's not buried yet, but try not to
- 40:35Speaker 2: get outscored twenty four to nothing.
- 40:37Speaker 1: That's an interesting series. Now it might help, huh. I mean,
- 40:40Speaker 1: did the refs have a hand in that?
- 40:42Speaker 4: Well?
- 40:42Speaker 1: Okay, but make it loop.
- 40:44Speaker 3: I thought, and we'll talk about it in this hour.
- 40:46Speaker 3: I was buying suspension for Wemby. Instead they sold that
- 40:50Speaker 3: in the NBA and these two. Thank god we have
- 40:53Speaker 3: two series because otherwise we would be sweeps in yep.
- 40:56Speaker 2: The final hour of today's addition to the Huddle coming
- 40:59Speaker 2: at you in NEX Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin
