Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Cutting and kracking our way through a Wednesday in the
- 0:05Speaker 1: good Land. It's the huddle.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin, Drew Billion armand bringing it to
- 0:08Speaker 2: you from headquarters here. It's hate compte get him to
- 0:11Speaker 2: us eight seven seven, seven nine four one ninety seven
- 0:13Speaker 2: three into the nicolay Lau dot com talk and text line.
- 0:16Speaker 1: But first, because we've built it up.
- 0:18Speaker 2: So much, it's time for uh Hunter Bomgart the fourth
- 0:22Speaker 2: to recap the Brewers historic and epic and historically epic
- 0:26Speaker 2: twenty two to nothing victory over the Mariners last evening
- 0:29Speaker 2: an American family field with storms bearing down on our area.
- 0:33Speaker 2: Both the weather and the Brewers exploded. Take it away, Hunter,
- 0:39Speaker 2: Thanks guys.
- 0:39Speaker 3: A record setting night last night for the Milwaukee Brewers.
- 0:42Speaker 3: Twenty two to nothing. It's the largest margin of victory
- 0:44Speaker 3: in a shutout in Major League Baseball since the start
- 0:47Speaker 3: of eighteen eighty eight. I mean, wow, that is quite incredible.
- 0:53Speaker 3: Also quite incredible. Luis Lara his first career home run
- 0:55Speaker 3: last night. David Hamilton the three run home run. He
- 0:57Speaker 3: s had a career high with four runs driven in
- 0:59Speaker 3: Christian I'll at a three run home run made it
- 1:01Speaker 3: six nothing instead of three nothing that was big.
- 1:03Speaker 4: And how about Jake Bowers.
- 1:05Speaker 3: How about this? He scores the first of the twenty
- 1:07Speaker 3: two runs in the first inning, tries to slide into home,
- 1:10Speaker 3: knocks the ball out of the glove of cal Raley,
- 1:12Speaker 3: dives back into home after Yellich pointed that the ball
- 1:15Speaker 3: was out. Jake Bowers takes you through that sequence here.
- 1:18Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean what was going through my mind was
- 1:19Speaker 5: I was trying to do the exact same slide that
- 1:21Speaker 5: I did in.
- 1:23Speaker 1: LA two days ago.
- 1:26Speaker 4: I was a little bit later to home. He kind
- 1:29Speaker 4: of worked in.
- 1:30Speaker 5: Front of me as right as I was going to
- 1:31Speaker 5: try to dive in, and then I don't really what
- 1:35Speaker 5: happened after that. I just remember Yelly's screaming at him
- 1:37Speaker 5: to touch home, and then yeah, that was that.
- 1:41Speaker 4: I saw the replay.
- 1:42Speaker 5: I definitely wasn't trying to hit his glove. It was
- 1:45Speaker 5: more trying to protect him and me because I didn't
- 1:47Speaker 5: want to barrel through him. I didn't want to break
- 1:49Speaker 5: my neck on his chest protector. So it sucks that
- 1:52Speaker 5: that's the way it looks on video.
- 1:54Speaker 4: But I definitely wasn't trying to knock the ball up.
- 1:57Speaker 3: And speaking of Jake Bowers, He's been on base twenty
- 1:59Speaker 3: straight games. He's hitting three eighty two over those twenty games.
- 2:02Speaker 3: He's been great all year. Christian Yelich talked about how
- 2:04Speaker 3: meaningful it has been to have the success of Jake
- 2:07Speaker 3: Bauers in the middle of that order.
- 2:08Speaker 6: He's been awesome even since spring training. Yeah, he's been
- 2:11Speaker 6: breaking since we showed up in Arizona. I was really
- 2:14Speaker 6: happy for him. He's been working really hard. He's a
- 2:17Speaker 6: team better as a player and taking advantage of opportunities
- 2:22Speaker 6: and playing time, and you know, he's plays multiple positions
- 2:25Speaker 6: for us and hitting them a little order. So he's
- 2:27Speaker 6: been huge and you know, kind of a huge reason
- 2:30Speaker 6: why we've all had that successfully filed so far this season.
- 2:33Speaker 3: So the Brewers will go for the series win tonight
- 2:35Speaker 3: against Seattle. How do you follow up a twenty two
- 2:37Speaker 3: to nothing victory. Let's see, maybe they can get twenty
- 2:40Speaker 3: three tonight. Dustin May on the Mountain for the crew,
- 2:42Speaker 3: I'll have you for the Baseball pregame show five thirty
- 2:44Speaker 3: this evening six forty first pitch. Also of note, Joey
- 2:47Speaker 3: or Tez rolled his ankle at some point in the game.
- 2:51Speaker 3: Or Teas wasn't really sure when he did it, but
- 2:53Speaker 3: something to monitor. And Shane Drowen came out of the
- 2:55Speaker 3: bullpen last night, first relief appearance since May twenty seventh.
- 2:59Speaker 3: He is going to actually be starting on Sunday in
- 3:01Speaker 3: Williamsport against the Braves. So it looks like you'll probably
- 3:05Speaker 3: get Jacob Zerowski on Friday and Logan Henderson on Saturday,
- 3:09Speaker 3: the two home games against the Braves this coming weekend.
- 3:13Speaker 3: This report brought to you by import Minded, your trusted
- 3:15Speaker 3: choice for exceptional vehicle care on Sound twenty seventh, just
- 3:17Speaker 3: north of eight ninety four.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Back to you, guys, what an incredible recass of bank
- 3:22Speaker 2: Hunter bomb guards. I'm talking about one thing that I
- 3:24Speaker 2: would correct them on. The two home games against the Braves.
- 3:28Speaker 2: They're all home games. Brewers are home.
- 3:29Speaker 4: I was gonna say, technically they are the home team
- 3:31Speaker 4: right in Williamsporting Day.
- 3:32Speaker 2: But that's they have to take a trip and it's
- 3:34Speaker 2: going to be planes, trains and automobiles to get there.
- 3:37Speaker 7: But they don't have direct flights into Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
- 3:41Speaker 4: Currently.
- 3:42Speaker 2: It's gonna be pretty sweet. But the Friday game is
- 3:45Speaker 2: lining up. If you want to get some advanced tickets
- 3:47Speaker 2: Billy your favorite tick pick or stub hub or wherever, yes,
- 3:51Speaker 2: or just brewers dot com. It looks like Friday might
- 3:54Speaker 2: be missed against Chris Sales. Show me a better pitching matchup. Man,
- 3:56Speaker 2: that's a playoff game one matchup right there.
- 4:00Speaker 7: Oh god, that could start up in NLDS and NLCUS
- 4:03Speaker 7: and people would be salivating at networks because Sale is
- 4:06Speaker 7: as good as he's been like this year, he's he's
- 4:09Speaker 7: pitching as good as he maybe has ever done.
- 4:12Speaker 4: And obviously we know how good.
- 4:13Speaker 7: Miss is also a three to ten first pitch on
- 4:15Speaker 7: Friday night, So that's a perfect night where you can
- 4:18Speaker 7: get home still put the kids to bed, like and
- 4:21Speaker 7: you know, we have an excuse to get out of work,
- 4:23Speaker 7: you know, maybe a little bit early and go get
- 4:25Speaker 7: a clip on in the afternoon.
- 4:26Speaker 1: That's oh yeah, we.
- 4:27Speaker 2: Get to pretend you're the Cubs because they have a
- 4:28Speaker 2: day game for getaway game against the Mariners on Thursday,
- 4:31Speaker 2: and then a three ten start on Friday.
- 4:32Speaker 4: Yeah, and then a one ten first pitch on Saturday
- 4:35Speaker 4: so that.
- 4:35Speaker 1: They can travel to Williamsport.
- 4:36Speaker 7: Three three straight day games and then a night game
- 4:39Speaker 7: on Sunday, and then when they play the Cubs. At
- 4:41Speaker 7: the end of the month at Wrigley they got four
- 4:42Speaker 7: straight night games.
- 4:43Speaker 1: Go figure.
- 4:44Speaker 7: Yeah, that's one of the funniest quirks in the schedule.
- 4:46Speaker 7: The other one here is I was, this is the
- 4:48Speaker 7: one time the Brewers will be on.
- 4:50Speaker 4: Sunday night baseball.
- 4:51Speaker 7: For us of a certain vintage, that was a thing
- 4:54Speaker 7: that used to be a big deal. I remember one
- 4:57Speaker 7: of the first times the Brewers were on Sunday night baseball,
- 5:00Speaker 7: and in my time was when they played the Cubs
- 5:02Speaker 7: on like an Easter Sunday night, and that would be
- 5:04Speaker 7: the only time it felt like they got Sunday night baseball.
- 5:06Speaker 2: So they had a day normal start back in the
- 5:10Speaker 2: day at County Stadium on Sunday night baseball. I'll look
- 5:12Speaker 2: that might have been but yeah, not many. John Miller
- 5:16Speaker 2: action made not many. But Joey Ortiz rolled his ankle.
- 5:20Speaker 2: He doesn't know when how do you remember? Thank you
- 5:23Speaker 2: and think now it's it's sore. But meanwhile, like Terran
- 5:27Speaker 2: came back last night much needed. And then Cooper Pratt
- 5:31Speaker 2: played for the t Rats last night and is ready
- 5:33Speaker 2: and rare to go and could be back tonight. Cooper
- 5:35Speaker 2: Pratt was one for two and uh in his in
- 5:41Speaker 2: the first inning, he scored from second on a base hit,
- 5:43Speaker 2: and he said, he's fine.
- 5:45Speaker 4: Whatever I'm needed, I'm ready to let me know, you guys,
- 5:47Speaker 4: I'm ready to really.
- 5:48Speaker 8: Playing before you heard really playing well. So it'd be
- 5:50Speaker 8: nice to get him back. I mean, it'd be nice
- 5:54Speaker 8: just again. They weathered the storm. But it's hard to
- 5:57Speaker 8: make hay And go on a heater when you're playing
- 6:01Speaker 8: with Gary Sanchez at first and Andrew a third.
- 6:03Speaker 1: That makes it difference. It's not ideal. Yeah, that makes
- 6:06Speaker 1: that makes it the best defensive setup.
- 6:08Speaker 4: And when they've won, that's the thing. Well, that no doubt.
- 6:11Speaker 7: But yeah, they've also much they they've and they haven't
- 6:14Speaker 7: been able to hit any bit of a true stride.
- 6:16Speaker 7: It feels like since the All Star break and now
- 6:18Speaker 7: they've they're over five hundred, they've won games, but they
- 6:21Speaker 7: haven't hit that run yet. And I think you know
- 6:24Speaker 7: for some of us that that wonder if you peak
- 6:26Speaker 7: too early, you peak too soon? Was the thirty and
- 6:29Speaker 7: four run a little too early a year ago. You
- 6:31Speaker 7: can never predict when you get hot. You're never gonna
- 6:34Speaker 7: stop getting hot or slow yourself down. But I think
- 6:37Speaker 7: it feeds into that conversation where they still have not
- 6:40Speaker 7: clicked on all cylinders here in the second half, and
- 6:42Speaker 7: that's a hopefully reason for optimism that it can finally
- 6:45Speaker 7: happen here coming on later.
- 6:46Speaker 8: Well, especially offensively, right, And I think we do remember
- 6:48Speaker 8: that last years stretch, but that's not normal either. I
- 6:51Speaker 8: guess you can make the case that this whole year's
- 6:53Speaker 8: been their run. I mean, they won seventy eight games
- 6:56Speaker 8: and we're sitting here on August nineteenth, so it's been
- 7:00Speaker 8: obviously a great year. But yeah, if they can get
- 7:02Speaker 8: one more big streak, I think it just feels like
- 7:04Speaker 8: that too, because the Cubs are still in the rearview
- 7:06Speaker 8: mirror and they played so well and they've been on
- 7:08Speaker 8: a streak that you know, it doesn't feel like you've
- 7:12Speaker 8: been as dominant because you haven't stretched out.
- 7:14Speaker 4: That lead yet, but that that might still happen here.
- 7:17Speaker 8: I mean, the Cubs are still finding ways to get
- 7:20Speaker 8: you know, you had the stat earlier, Billy about the
- 7:22Speaker 8: one run wins, the comeback wins, the walkoffs. They're finding
- 7:25Speaker 8: a way to find wins. But who knows if that
- 7:28Speaker 8: will run out though well sustainable? Oh I hope it's not.
- 7:32Speaker 2: Might be for a year, but it doesn't carry over
- 7:34Speaker 2: from year to year. That's what I'm saying.
- 7:36Speaker 4: So YouTube, Yeah exactly.
- 7:38Speaker 1: You know we were great in close games. Well some
- 7:40Speaker 1: YouTube comments.
- 7:41Speaker 4: That's a one that's a one year cycle.
- 7:43Speaker 7: That's a personality of a team, and that is a
- 7:45Speaker 7: tough thing to be able to replicate a year in
- 7:47Speaker 7: and year out.
- 7:47Speaker 8: What do we got to get some good mornings from
- 7:49Speaker 8: Paul Kay I'm here just listening. Forgot to chime in,
- 7:52Speaker 8: and also John Kurzawa, Good morning. I'll forgot to check
- 7:55Speaker 8: him before six am.
- 7:56Speaker 4: I mean, I know you're loyal.
- 7:58Speaker 8: Customers and stuff, but you got to get in by
- 7:59Speaker 8: you Yeah, the club said, I'm sorry, you can't just
- 8:02Speaker 8: slide in and expect to still, you know, slide in
- 8:04Speaker 8: the middle of the line here, all.
- 8:06Speaker 1: Right, all right?
- 8:06Speaker 2: Eight seven seven seven nine three. Time to fire up
- 8:09Speaker 2: the hot take hump day machine. Get us your opinions.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Hot take.
- 8:12Speaker 2: They can be about food, they can be about movies,
- 8:14Speaker 2: pop culture, music, They can definitely be about sports. The
- 8:18Speaker 2: brewers are front of mine right now, can be packers
- 8:20Speaker 2: takes right now, Billy, you've been chopping at the bit
- 8:24Speaker 2: because you're only with us for an hour yesterday, you
- 8:26Speaker 2: got some hot takes hosted up what you got well.
- 8:28Speaker 7: First off, the hot take from Badger night practice yesterday.
- 8:33Speaker 7: They practiced last night under the lights at Camp Randle Stadium.
- 8:37Speaker 7: Defense looks great, defense looks real good offense. Improving offense
- 8:42Speaker 7: is still work in progress. We already knew that was
- 8:43Speaker 7: gonna be a case my hot take right out of
- 8:47Speaker 7: the gates.
- 8:47Speaker 4: And now this is with some windshield time. This is
- 8:49Speaker 4: with some thought.
- 8:50Speaker 7: This is with a lot of different college football podcasts
- 8:53Speaker 7: starting to enter my my ecosphere and in peaking more
- 8:58Speaker 7: and more of my interest is the fact that I
- 9:00Speaker 7: think the Badgers are going eight and four this year.
- 9:02Speaker 7: I now as difficult as the schedule still is as
- 9:07Speaker 7: they lined up, and on three Sports yesterday put together
- 9:10Speaker 7: a super cool graphic of all the different teams drew
- 9:14Speaker 7: that have difficult schedules. The Badgers had the most difficult
- 9:17Speaker 7: schedule by most metrics a year ago, with top ten opponents,
- 9:21Speaker 7: top five opponents, top twenty five opponents at the back
- 9:23Speaker 7: end of the year, the most top twenty five teams
- 9:26Speaker 7: preseason as the first a peopole came out. Badgers have
- 9:30Speaker 7: four games against the top twenty five and when you
- 9:34Speaker 7: look at where those games fall and who they ultimately
- 9:37Speaker 7: are against, they are not the big bad Wolves that
- 9:41Speaker 7: you generally would see. It is not Ohio State, it
- 9:44Speaker 7: is not Michigan. It is not Oregon either. It's number four,
- 9:48Speaker 7: Notre Dame to start out the schedule, and very much
- 9:50Speaker 7: so as a twenty and a half point underdog. That
- 9:52Speaker 7: is going to be a tough and a tall task.
- 9:56Speaker 7: Weird things happen in week one of college football, just saying.
- 9:59Speaker 7: The other one is at Penn State Week eighteen, week
- 10:02Speaker 7: number four, and that closes out the month of September,
- 10:07Speaker 7: where you're going to know a decent amount of the
- 10:08Speaker 7: Wisconsin Badgers. After Week one, Week four, their first Big
- 10:12Speaker 7: Ten game Penn State, everybody is anointed as one of
- 10:14Speaker 7: the best teams in the Big Ten because their schedule
- 10:17Speaker 7: is bad. We haven't seen them actually play yet, so
- 10:19Speaker 7: I don't know that that's going to be as difficult
- 10:22Speaker 7: as a task. The one again at home against USC
- 10:25Speaker 7: in the late stages of October. Who knows, roll the
- 10:27Speaker 7: ball out and let's see. But I think the Badgers
- 10:29Speaker 7: are going to go eight and four, and I think
- 10:30Speaker 7: that they're going to win the majority of the games
- 10:33Speaker 7: that they're supposed to win, go and potentially shock one more.
- 10:36Speaker 7: I also think eight and four is the magic number,
- 10:39Speaker 7: magic number in terms of everything stays the course in
- 10:42Speaker 7: twenty That's what I was gonna ask, Okay, like for
- 10:45Speaker 7: a bowl game, you mean, like for fickle existing you go.
- 10:48Speaker 4: Six and six.
- 10:49Speaker 7: I think there is definite possibility, and they're like, you
- 10:52Speaker 7: gotta have a yeah, Seawn, I course has a decision
- 10:55Speaker 7: to make. He's the new athletic director, f Reezon. Right
- 10:57Speaker 7: at that point, you have now given it to the
- 11:00Speaker 7: hands of others to make the decision for you. You
- 11:04Speaker 7: make the decision for them going eight and four. And
- 11:06Speaker 7: I think the Badgers are gonna do it. And I
- 11:08Speaker 7: think that they're a surprising football team and a Big
- 11:10Speaker 7: ten that is as top heavy as it has ever been,
- 11:14Speaker 7: I believe, And they don't have.
- 11:16Speaker 4: To play those guys, which makes it.
- 11:18Speaker 7: Very nice, Which makes it very nice to not have
- 11:20Speaker 7: a road trip to Indiana in the middle of the schedule,
- 11:23Speaker 7: a road trip out to Eugene, Oregon, and then hosting
- 11:28Speaker 7: the Ohio State Buckeys after you get sculled by Iowa.
- 11:31Speaker 4: So a lot maybe that's a lot more optimism than
- 11:34Speaker 4: people want.
- 11:34Speaker 7: At this moment, at six thirteen in the morning, we're
- 11:36Speaker 7: still two and a half weeks away from Lambeau.
- 11:37Speaker 4: That's what we want.
- 11:38Speaker 7: But I think the Badgers, especially led by that young defense,
- 11:41Speaker 7: gonna be much better hard to be much worse on offense.
- 11:43Speaker 7: I think there were one thirty three out of one
- 11:45Speaker 7: thirty six in terms of total scoring offense.
- 11:47Speaker 4: Well, you keep it healthy.
- 11:48Speaker 8: If you get a starting quarterback to play for you,
- 11:50Speaker 8: that would be a start. Like hell, they haven't been
- 11:52Speaker 8: healthy that position, you know, for a long time. So
- 11:54Speaker 8: hopefully that's the first step. And I think you're right, Billy,
- 11:57Speaker 8: because I think deep down, when there's a new ad
- 11:59Speaker 8: and and your biggest revenue sport like football, eventually a
- 12:03Speaker 8: new AD is gonna want his guy in there, gonna
- 12:05Speaker 8: want to make that decision, gonna want to make a
- 12:07Speaker 8: higher and have a legacy attach to one way or another.
- 12:10Speaker 8: It's sort of like I think when a new GM
- 12:12Speaker 8: or head coach comes the NFL, they want their quarterback
- 12:14Speaker 8: that they're gonna.
- 12:15Speaker 4: Ride or die with eventually.
- 12:16Speaker 8: So I think there is a little bit of now
- 12:18Speaker 8: that there is a new one in there, Fickle is
- 12:20Speaker 8: going to have to prove himself more so than he
- 12:22Speaker 8: would have maybe with the last guy, because hey, this
- 12:25Speaker 8: guy might be looking to eventually make his who will
- 12:27Speaker 8: make his higher. So we'll see what happens. But I think,
- 12:30Speaker 8: you know, that's a good one. Eight and four, that's
- 12:32Speaker 8: a good baseline too, because the question has been for me,
- 12:34Speaker 8: what's it going to take for him to be able
- 12:35Speaker 8: to continue this?
- 12:36Speaker 7: That's probably not Drew, you know Blackstone all four burners
- 12:39Speaker 7: on high. That might be medium low, but flipping your
- 12:42Speaker 7: record from four and eight to eight and four is
- 12:44Speaker 7: pretty good. It would be something that they desperately need
- 12:47Speaker 7: with the kind of investment they've made.
- 12:49Speaker 2: If you can keep the quarterback ambulatory, that's job one,
- 12:53Speaker 2: number one.
- 12:53Speaker 1: I haven't been able to accomplish that.
- 12:55Speaker 2: They got a couple of experienced linebackers that you know,
- 12:57Speaker 2: will experience but promising and you know.
- 13:00Speaker 4: Yeah, and young and explosive and good explosive.
- 13:03Speaker 2: And uh stars And I think, uh, it's funny because
- 13:07Speaker 2: I think the first public interview the day he committed
- 13:10Speaker 2: Darian Dupree was in our trailer at the lake House
- 13:12Speaker 2: at Summerfest.
- 13:13Speaker 4: Yes he was ironshot.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Yes, Polly Hanson brought him in and uh he was
- 13:18Speaker 2: in with Brailin because Brailn helped kind.
- 13:20Speaker 4: Of that's right, shu him through helps him bring bring
- 13:22Speaker 4: him in here.
- 13:22Speaker 2: Talked to Brailan and Dari and Dupree and I've been
- 13:24Speaker 2: waiting for Darien Dupree to kind of bust out and
- 13:26Speaker 2: this might be the year.
- 13:27Speaker 7: Yeah, he had he had the one big run. I
- 13:29Speaker 7: want to say it was the Illinois game. Uh, that
- 13:32Speaker 7: that that really catapulted and got the opened up the floodgates.
- 13:35Speaker 1: One of the one of the few highlights of less season. Game.
- 13:39Speaker 7: Yes, I think when when you can count how many
- 13:41Speaker 7: touchdowns they had on your hands and toes.
- 13:43Speaker 4: Oh yeah, there's there, you can remember them a lot.
- 13:45Speaker 7: Cleaner and they got a lot more talent in that
- 13:47Speaker 7: running back room, and I think that's where they're actually
- 13:50Speaker 7: going to be able to establish because they have their
- 13:52Speaker 7: number one quarterback, Drew runs the football. Colton Joe just
- 13:55Speaker 7: had two thousand passing yards in a thousand rushing yards,
- 13:58Speaker 7: so big sturdy that that's what you And congratulations with
- 14:02Speaker 7: Billy Edwards. He just won the North Carolina quarterback job.
- 14:06Speaker 7: That should be fun about Cats. That should be fun.
- 14:08Speaker 7: Billy Edwards Junior could be the final quarterback to start
- 14:10Speaker 7: for Bill Belichick. In goodness, huh he won the quarterback competition.
- 14:15Speaker 7: I believe in his seventh or eighth year of college football.
- 14:18Speaker 2: Oh my believe in Yeah, we had him at Buffalo
- 14:21Speaker 2: wild Wings hanging out remember football, feasting with us.
- 14:24Speaker 4: He's such an engaging cat.
- 14:25Speaker 7: I was a big, big fan of Billy Edwards junior,
- 14:28Speaker 7: the guy and tough that he was never able to play.
- 14:32Speaker 2: It's just hard to keep track, but who is what's
- 14:35Speaker 2: the depth chart behind Colton? Joseph Danie O'Neil still in
- 14:38Speaker 2: the roster.
- 14:39Speaker 7: Danny O'Neill is a not but they do have Deuce Adams,
- 14:44Speaker 7: who is probably the one that's drawing the most attention,
- 14:47Speaker 7: and he's got some starting experience under his belt as well.
- 14:51Speaker 7: Played quite a bit a year ago and to last
- 14:54Speaker 7: two years, but lot last year with Louisville comes over
- 14:57Speaker 7: and people think that he's like, definitely a one. B.
- 15:00Speaker 7: The exciting one is the true freshman, Ryan Hopkins coming
- 15:03Speaker 7: in from Newport Beach, California. He is from the same
- 15:06Speaker 7: area that Joseph is. Danie O'Neil is on the roster,
- 15:09Speaker 7: but pushed all the way down all the way down
- 15:11Speaker 7: there is Carter Smith. You not seeing a ton or
- 15:14Speaker 7: hearing a lot about Carter Smith. He was the one
- 15:16Speaker 7: that ultimately started a couple of games, the ones that
- 15:19Speaker 7: they won a year ago, but they had like the
- 15:23Speaker 7: worst passing offense in college football year ago. So hard
- 15:26Speaker 7: to say that any of those guys would give themselves
- 15:28Speaker 7: immediately a chance. But Deuce Adams, I think would instantly
- 15:31Speaker 7: be the first one in. And the one that people
- 15:33Speaker 7: are really excited about is Hopkins. So it's definitely more of,
- 15:35Speaker 7: as Fickle has said, a room instead of one guy.
- 15:40Speaker 4: And if anything goes wrong, all hell is gonna bring hot.
- 15:42Speaker 8: Take all as well of your quarterback prospect is from
- 15:44Speaker 8: southern California, you got a good chance. I mean it
- 15:46Speaker 8: seems like all those guys are from all the I believe.
- 15:49Speaker 4: He played at Modern Day too. There you go.
- 15:51Speaker 8: I mean I didn't even have to say it. I
- 15:53Speaker 8: mean that's even Jordan Love was from Bakersfield. I mean,
- 15:56Speaker 8: that's Central Valley, but it's still southern Californy. I mean
- 15:58Speaker 8: that just seems that were the best prospects come from.
- 16:01Speaker 8: If it's not the Deep South, you know whatever. So
- 16:04Speaker 8: you know, once upon a time. It was that Pennsylvania
- 16:06Speaker 8: area that Pittsburgh kind of were like the Marinos and
- 16:09Speaker 8: the brad Shot, but it's like or maybe not brad Shot,
- 16:11Speaker 8: but a lot of the good prospects came from there.
- 16:13Speaker 4: But it just seems like it.
- 16:14Speaker 8: And speaking of guys that are at new schools, AJ
- 16:17Speaker 8: Store committed to his ninth school nine years So congrats
- 16:20Speaker 8: to AJ Store who now committed ELV. So if you
- 16:23Speaker 8: go through his school history in high school and college,
- 16:26Speaker 8: Aj Stores.
- 16:28Speaker 4: So I'll give you a hot take here.
- 16:30Speaker 8: It's really tough work for the admissions director trying to
- 16:34Speaker 8: figure out the credits that are transferring through and the
- 16:37Speaker 8: classes and what credits. I mean, that is a lot
- 16:40Speaker 8: of legwork to go through to figure out what credits
- 16:42Speaker 8: are going to translate over.
- 16:43Speaker 2: So yeah, lots, yeah, lots, all right, keep them coming.
- 16:46Speaker 2: Hot takes eight seven seven seven three Hot take. I
- 16:51Speaker 2: was underwhelmed when the Cowboys signed Von Miller because he's
- 16:54Speaker 2: an old dude, you know. Yeah, But I did chuckle
- 16:57Speaker 2: that he wants to wear jersey number forty. He wants
- 17:00Speaker 2: Hunter Loopke to give it up, and he offered him
- 17:03Speaker 2: a lifetime supply of chicken.
- 17:05Speaker 4: Oh I'm taking that. What a great call.
- 17:08Speaker 8: That's hilarious, like like like ordering fried chicken or chicken
- 17:12Speaker 8: breast grilled.
- 17:13Speaker 1: A lifetime supply of chicken.
- 17:15Speaker 7: Like well, no, I mean, von Miller is like a
- 17:18Speaker 7: very successful uh farmer, the rancher. I believe, Yeah, I
- 17:23Speaker 7: believe he's got. I believe he's got like a well
- 17:26Speaker 7: oiled machine in that way.
- 17:28Speaker 4: So he's just like, I'll give you some chickens from
- 17:30Speaker 4: my farms.
- 17:31Speaker 2: And Don Miller wore fifty eight during his time with
- 17:34Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos, and then he wore number forty for
- 17:36Speaker 2: the Rams and Bills. He wore number forty in college
- 17:38Speaker 2: at A and M. And he doesn't want to wear
- 17:41Speaker 2: fifty eight in Dallas because that was his number with
- 17:42Speaker 2: the Broncos. And he doesn't want to wear ninety four
- 17:44Speaker 2: because it's associated with DeMarcus Ware.
- 17:47Speaker 4: Very true. Hot take. Is he the first Edge to
- 17:49Speaker 4: ever request a number in the forties? Very much? Yeah,
- 17:54Speaker 4: very much? Might be.
- 17:56Speaker 2: Nobody wants that one year deal seven and a half million.
- 17:59Speaker 2: And the Cowboys will still maintain that they got the
- 18:01Speaker 2: best out of the Micah Parsons trade. And yet they've
- 18:05Speaker 2: now used a draft pick a trade and a free
- 18:09Speaker 2: agent signing to kind of shore up their pass rush.
- 18:11Speaker 7: Yeah, and I mean they have gotten a bunch of
- 18:13Speaker 7: guys that are very good players, right, Quinn Williams, extremely
- 18:16Speaker 7: accomplished player, really good player. Sean Gary maybe yeah, good
- 18:21Speaker 7: player at times maybe. And Kenny Clark was a very
- 18:24Speaker 7: very good player. I think he played well for them
- 18:26Speaker 7: a year ago. We'll see how it ultimately pans out.
- 18:29Speaker 7: But like Devin as a ROCKU, he's in the midst
- 18:32Speaker 7: of the fighting. Yesterday, he was one of the guys
- 18:34Speaker 7: that they've brought in they have now as a some
- 18:37Speaker 7: of their parts. Trew brought in like six guys to
- 18:39Speaker 7: try to make up for it. And uh, Jerry just
- 18:42Speaker 7: wanted you know, I still might have one thing I
- 18:45Speaker 7: must leave.
- 18:46Speaker 4: We still might were still we still might not be done,
- 18:49Speaker 4: still might be cooking someone.
- 18:50Speaker 1: We still might not be.
- 18:51Speaker 7: Done because people are still trying to make up trades
- 18:53Speaker 7: for Max Crosby. People are still trying to trade him
- 18:56Speaker 7: off of still trying to trade him off of the Raiders,
- 18:58Speaker 7: So like there might still be one splash move in
- 19:01Speaker 7: the NFL before all, before all is done. But uh,
- 19:05Speaker 7: von Miller, tell me where you saw his eight sacks
- 19:08Speaker 7: a year ago, whoa like Blinkham and I had no
- 19:13Speaker 7: clue he had eight sacks, no clues in the league.
- 19:15Speaker 7: Did want to let everyone know, though, that he had
- 19:18Speaker 7: to decide between the Commanders and.
- 19:20Speaker 4: The Seahawks a year ago.
- 19:21Speaker 7: Okay, and he chose the Commanders because he thought they
- 19:24Speaker 7: had a better chance to win.
- 19:24Speaker 4: The Super Bowl. Ah tough, that's a tough scene.
- 19:27Speaker 8: You don't let him handle your future, You're like, but
- 19:32Speaker 8: you might want him to help with your chicken Pasture
- 19:35Speaker 8: as Greener Pasture's Chicken, a thirty five acre regenerative, organic
- 19:39Speaker 8: and pastor raised chicken farm in Elgin, Texas. I mean
- 19:42Speaker 8: that's definitely a deal you take if you're a hunter,
- 19:44Speaker 8: because if they're going to process it and send it over,
- 19:47Speaker 8: I mean you're getting You're getting a lifetime supplied chicken,
- 19:50Speaker 8: which means I'm soaking you for for fresh poultry forever.
- 19:54Speaker 4: This says, now, I don't know you guys.
- 19:56Speaker 7: Are you guys AI overview people like when you google
- 19:59Speaker 7: some and are you the AI over you?
- 20:02Speaker 2: I'm I'm holstering that up for a hot take. I'll
- 20:05Speaker 2: do that next.
- 20:06Speaker 7: Okay, Okay, good, because this one says he took a
- 20:08Speaker 7: poultry class to boost his GPA in college, but grew
- 20:11Speaker 7: a passion and planned it as a backup career.
- 20:14Speaker 1: I believe it that we're going to get to whole
- 20:17Speaker 1: tree class.
- 20:18Speaker 2: It just reminded me of my Nonsports top hot take today.
- 20:22Speaker 2: We'll get to that. We'll get to that. We want
- 20:24Speaker 2: your hot takes eight seven, seven, seven, nine four three.
- 20:27Speaker 2: You're in the huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin, rolling through
- 20:34Speaker 2: Wednesday in the good Land. It's the huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin, Drew,
- 20:37Speaker 2: Billy and armand halftime has arrived.

- 21:02Speaker 4: No, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta back. Yeah, I've
- 21:06Speaker 4: got to.
- 21:08Speaker 7: Well, what what it is, arman, if you need me
- 21:11Speaker 7: to say it out loud, is that somebody took it
- 21:13Speaker 7: to Green Bay yesterday to do training camp live with
- 21:15Speaker 7: and somebody didn't plug it in overnight, so somebody had
- 21:20Speaker 7: it die. So if you'd like somebody to tell you
- 21:22Speaker 7: who it was, hand raised in air.

- 21:27Speaker 8: Sorry, I wasn't this morning was on, so that's what.
- 21:32Speaker 4: I was confused.
- 21:32Speaker 1: Okay, all right?
- 21:33Speaker 2: Uh, before I dive into that hot take that I've
- 21:36Speaker 2: holted up, I can't wait.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Dolph wants to throw a bouquet to arm And. Hey, Okay,
- 21:41Speaker 1: so yesterday we're taking a tour around Shannon and myself
- 21:44Speaker 1: my partner. We're taking a tour of girl scouts around
- 21:47Speaker 1: the troop from Franklin, Wisconsin, and they're in with some
- 21:50Speaker 1: of their parents. And one of the first stops we
- 21:52Speaker 1: made were here to the Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin Megaplex
- 21:56Speaker 1: studio and Armin at the time is producing your training
- 21:59Speaker 1: camp coverage Billy in Green Bay, and and one of
- 22:02Speaker 1: the families said, Hey, would it be possible to get
- 22:05Speaker 1: a picture with Arman. I'm like, ah, right, So Hunter,
- 22:08Speaker 1: God bless Hunter was in here giving a talk to
- 22:10Speaker 1: the kids about sports talk radio. Hunter immediately bolted in
- 22:13Speaker 1: and said, yeah, yeah, Armand has agreed if he'll do.
- 22:17Speaker 4: I have agreed.
- 22:17Speaker 1: Yeah, it's amazing.
- 22:18Speaker 4: I made her wait for twenty minutes. But I know
- 22:20Speaker 4: I'm just kidding.
- 22:21Speaker 8: I said, you can get a picture of slap me
- 22:22Speaker 8: some thin mints. I mean, if you're a girl, if
- 22:25Speaker 8: you're part of the girls Scotts, you gotta be.
- 22:26Speaker 4: You gotta have box, you have free Finman's. I want no,
- 22:31Speaker 4: I want to pay a discount of.
- 22:32Speaker 1: Ris We just took FCC training. Yeah, you can't take Paola, plugola,
- 22:37Speaker 1: whatever it's called.
- 22:40Speaker 4: Yeah, you gotta do that, billy. Yeah, I got it.
- 22:42Speaker 7: I got three emails yesterday about doing it. I was
- 22:47Speaker 7: hoping i'd have some friends in here that still forgot
- 22:49Speaker 7: to do it.
- 22:49Speaker 4: Well, a lot of them.
- 22:50Speaker 8: I I didn't fit because one of them. The site's
- 22:52Speaker 8: not working right for me. But the point is I
- 22:54Speaker 8: want the sec to No.
- 22:55Speaker 4: I didn't take any freebies.
- 22:56Speaker 8: All right.
- 22:58Speaker 4: We took a great picture and it was a great time.
- 23:01Speaker 4: She was great. She said she liked radio.
- 23:03Speaker 7: She didn't take any cookies, but that hundred bucks that
- 23:04Speaker 7: she's slidy in the McDonald's bag, right in the bag.
- 23:10Speaker 4: Oh man.
- 23:11Speaker 8: Yes, she said she was interested in country music radio.
- 23:14Speaker 8: I said, well, you must have been excited to hang
- 23:16Speaker 8: out with the great Hall of famers.
- 23:18Speaker 1: Clearly she was interered in sports too, because she said
- 23:21Speaker 1: she did. We didn't say that's Arm, and she said,
- 23:23Speaker 1: can can we get a picture with Armand.
- 23:24Speaker 8: Yeah, well listen, I don't know. I still I'm skeptical.
- 23:27Speaker 8: I still think somewhere her dad's at home saying did
- 23:29Speaker 8: you get that picture I was asking you about?
- 23:31Speaker 4: You know, well, either way, you know what, she remembered
- 23:34Speaker 4: the name.
- 23:35Speaker 7: And for all the folks that would say armand sorry
- 23:37Speaker 7: and would be an easily misspelled or forgotten name when
- 23:40Speaker 7: they may have told you to change it to I
- 23:42Speaker 7: don't know, something called John Deere when he came into broadcasting.
- 23:45Speaker 1: You're all good, arman, Did you ever consider an on
- 23:48Speaker 1: air name?
- 23:49Speaker 4: Never?
- 23:49Speaker 8: And I think it's because I got into radio during
- 23:52Speaker 8: a time when that was sort of in the past already. God,
- 23:55Speaker 8: but I bet if I entered the radio business like
- 23:58Speaker 8: early years earlier, they would have said something about.
- 24:01Speaker 4: It, right, But yeah, probably no one ever, Maybe no
- 24:03Speaker 4: one ever heard.
- 24:04Speaker 8: Real quick, I think no one ever thought it would
- 24:06Speaker 8: matter anyway, Like this kid's let's see what, why do
- 24:08Speaker 8: we need to worry about his name?
- 24:10Speaker 4: He's gonna be a producer. Yeah.
- 24:13Speaker 8: So no, And I think Armand is an easy enough
- 24:16Speaker 8: name to say. It is sorry and is not that hard.
- 24:18Speaker 8: But mostly it's Armand. So I never no one ever said, hey,
- 24:21Speaker 8: did you have to get a radio name or do
- 24:22Speaker 8: you have to do I know that was the thing.
- 24:24Speaker 4: Once upon a time.
- 24:25Speaker 8: People would always get called in the office and say,
- 24:27Speaker 8: we're gonna come up with a new name.
- 24:28Speaker 1: It is Armand, the most common name in Armenian.
- 24:32Speaker 8: I don't know if it's the most common, but it's
- 24:33Speaker 8: super super super common. It's it's very I remember one year,
- 24:39Speaker 8: it's one year I went to Army in summer camp.
- 24:41Speaker 4: Every year.
- 24:42Speaker 8: One year there were four arm in s's in the
- 24:44Speaker 8: same session. And it's a weird experience because the whole
- 24:47Speaker 8: rest of the year, you know, fifty weeks out.
- 24:49Speaker 1: Of the year, there's no other Armand.
- 24:52Speaker 8: So when they yell arm And, come get your sandwich,
- 24:54Speaker 8: I know I'm ready to eat. But when when I'm
- 24:56Speaker 8: at summer camp and it's Arman and the girls are
- 24:58Speaker 8: yelling Arman, I'm gonna get an excited.
- 25:01Speaker 4: My god, she means that it's not free, it's the
- 25:03Speaker 4: other Armand is the John. It's super common.
- 25:07Speaker 8: Yeah, it's like John or Mike or something like that.
- 25:10Speaker 8: There's a lot of Armands always hanging around. It's spelled
- 25:12Speaker 8: differently sometimes, but it's the name of the same Take.
- 25:15Speaker 1: A knee, boys.
- 25:15Speaker 2: This is where Dolphin and I gotta get drop some
- 25:18Speaker 2: knowledge on you guys, because Billy just said something about
- 25:20Speaker 2: Google and it's on my list of things.
- 25:23Speaker 1: For hot take hump Day.
- 25:23Speaker 2: We have our hot takes and Dolphin I we can
- 25:26Speaker 2: tell you how a lot of stuff was better back
- 25:27Speaker 2: in the day. You know, Summerfest was better back in
- 25:31Speaker 2: the day when it was you know, when you could
- 25:32Speaker 2: buy a round of beers for ten bucks, yeah, you know,
- 25:34Speaker 2: and when you could get in for six that win. Yes,
- 25:38Speaker 2: So yeah, things were better back in the day. Cable
- 25:41Speaker 2: TV when it came out was awesome. And now we
- 25:43Speaker 2: have all these splintered streaming services and it just sucks
- 25:46Speaker 2: now and it's a pain in the ass.
- 25:47Speaker 1: You watch a game on Peacock, gotta sign go go to.
- 25:50Speaker 2: Another after watch the terrification and passwords all that sucks.
- 25:54Speaker 2: There's something now that is starting to suck, and it
- 25:57Speaker 2: sucked for the last like four or five months, and
- 26:00Speaker 2: it's never going to be the same, and that is Google.
- 26:03Speaker 2: Google became searching, It became synonymous, like Kleenex Google. You
- 26:07Speaker 2: want to search something Google, it's no longer search. They
- 26:09Speaker 2: throw you into their AI and they want to keep
- 26:11Speaker 2: you in their sphere and they're not throwing you links
- 26:14Speaker 2: anymore to anything. Sixty eight percent of searches on Google
- 26:19Speaker 2: now don't lead to external links. They want to keep
- 26:21Speaker 2: you in their house with their crappy Gemini AI that
- 26:24Speaker 2: they're trying to build. And even the search engines that
- 26:27Speaker 2: we've been that have been like one of the best
- 26:29Speaker 2: things of the Internet now sucks and it's going to
- 26:31Speaker 2: suck worse, and it's going to continue to suck.
- 26:33Speaker 1: Is it time to go back to Yahoo as our
- 26:35Speaker 1: main search? Jeeves two thousand Jeeves? Yeah, with the dogs right.
- 26:39Speaker 8: Jeeves was awesome Yooso yeahoo.
- 26:44Speaker 2: But Google now sucks because they give you like AI
- 26:47Speaker 2: overviews and stuff.
- 26:48Speaker 7: And then links into the answer as to where you
- 26:50Speaker 7: go and you click on the story and then you
- 26:52Speaker 7: get to see this, see where the car and driver
- 26:55Speaker 7: has of which of the cars I need?
- 26:56Speaker 2: And that's hard to find though, And it used to
- 26:58Speaker 2: be like it's going to kill like local businesses and
- 27:02Speaker 2: so maybe it'll help our business radio advertising, because it's
- 27:05Speaker 2: going to kill local business because you google, like, hey,
- 27:07Speaker 2: flowers near me, and it's you're not getting like a
- 27:10Speaker 2: list of flower stores anymore. You're getting, like, you know,
- 27:13Speaker 2: just tips on how to grow your own flowers.
- 27:15Speaker 1: And it's the first thing you see when you Google something,
- 27:18Speaker 1: and then you have to look up top to see, Okay,
- 27:20Speaker 1: there's AI, and then there's the general one, and then
- 27:22Speaker 1: there's videos, photos.
- 27:23Speaker 7: And so I'm on the complete opposite side. I think
- 27:26Speaker 7: it's the craziest, most helpful thing that I've ever seen.
- 27:29Speaker 7: And it's still made everything way easier and a lot
- 27:32Speaker 7: cleaner and a lot more streamlined. If I need to
- 27:34Speaker 7: find three different ways of figuring out which better the
- 27:37Speaker 7: XL X EXL or the touring or the EXL or
- 27:41Speaker 7: the sport on this hondadissey, I don't know. The comparing
- 27:43Speaker 7: to trash has made it a far easier experience.
- 27:46Speaker 8: I think one of the issues, tell me if I'm wrong,
- 27:48Speaker 8: is they the AI will search for conversation about the topic,
- 27:52Speaker 8: and a lot of that comes from like redditors or
- 27:54Speaker 8: message board, and it's.
- 27:56Speaker 4: Just people's opinions, so it's not necessarily.
- 27:58Speaker 8: I will give a credit, though, I just why does
- 28:00Speaker 8: Google Search suck now? And the AI over you said,
- 28:02Speaker 8: Google Search feels worse because profit and automated features now
- 28:05Speaker 8: take priority or directly.
- 28:09Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 28:10Speaker 2: So there are businesses that, like, you know, local mom
- 28:12Speaker 2: and pop stores and stuff that relied on that or
- 28:15Speaker 2: like what should I do in Milwaukee for the weekend
- 28:17Speaker 2: I'm traveling or something, and now they're just feeding you
- 28:20Speaker 2: crap you're not getting and magazines and blogs and kind
- 28:23Speaker 2: of nastas like they're rethinking. They're all these people that
- 28:26Speaker 2: have been spending money with advis with them, they're not
- 28:28Speaker 2: getting anything anymore because and Google who owns YouTube?
- 28:33Speaker 4: Google?
- 28:33Speaker 2: Yeah, so they throwing you to YouTube videos that they
- 28:36Speaker 2: want to keep you in their sphere and you're not
- 28:37Speaker 2: getting there might be a better video. There's something like
- 28:40Speaker 2: more germane to your search. But aren't we all throwing it?
- 28:42Speaker 7: Haven't we been brand loyal with a lot of stuff?
- 28:45Speaker 7: I mean, how many how many different things did you
- 28:47Speaker 7: look at? Of there's probably a lot better Polo shirts
- 28:50Speaker 7: or quarter zips.
- 28:51Speaker 4: But if I'm a Nike guy, I'm going into the
- 28:52Speaker 4: Nike one. I'm a Google guy. I I have YouTube TV.
- 28:55Speaker 7: I got YouTube Premium, I use Google Chrome all the time.
- 28:58Speaker 7: I like my sphere pretty colely. Where else would you go?
- 29:01Speaker 7: I mean, right, yeah, I think we're.
- 29:02Speaker 4: All locked into that in that sense.
- 29:04Speaker 2: Everybody else they've had that, they've had the monopoly, but
- 29:07Speaker 2: they're changing it. And like you have to get it's
- 29:09Speaker 2: you're not getting the tabs and you're not getting the
- 29:11Speaker 2: information that you were to make a decision. They're making
- 29:14Speaker 2: it for you and steering you.
- 29:16Speaker 7: They're also helping giving you a lot of ideas as
- 29:18Speaker 7: to where to find your answers.
- 29:20Speaker 4: It's interesting there's two approaches here.
- 29:22Speaker 8: I mean, I get your point, Drew, and I get
- 29:23Speaker 8: Billy's got the approach when it actually makes it easier
- 29:26Speaker 8: in some ways. My issue is is it as accurate
- 29:28Speaker 8: as it used to be?
- 29:29Speaker 1: I don't believe that's.
- 29:30Speaker 8: The concern I have. I do like that it would
- 29:32Speaker 8: make certain things easier quickly.
- 29:34Speaker 7: I think we're also giving ourselves a lot of credit
- 29:36Speaker 7: that we are master searchers of information and that we
- 29:38Speaker 7: are all knowing exactly where to.
- 29:40Speaker 4: Be able to find and dig for all this information.
- 29:42Speaker 8: If they weren't streamlining, you had to you know, when
- 29:44Speaker 8: you were searching Internet back in the day.
- 29:46Speaker 4: Back in the day, exactly what you want.
- 29:47Speaker 2: So now it was search engine optimization. Now it's answer
- 29:51Speaker 2: engine optimization. It's changing things because it used to be
- 29:54Speaker 2: if you were the first click and Google, like if
- 29:56Speaker 2: you Googled your name, or if you google something like
- 29:58Speaker 2: if I want chick in Milwaukee, and it was the
- 30:01Speaker 2: first click was Golden Chicken or Champion Chicken or something
- 30:03Speaker 2: like that. Now it used to be like a twenty
- 30:05Speaker 2: seven percent click through right now it's down to like nine.
- 30:08Speaker 1: Or ten percent.
- 30:09Speaker 2: So because they're forcing things down, so businesses are getting hosed,
- 30:12Speaker 2: so you don't see that stuff the top.
- 30:14Speaker 7: No b Well, yeah, I mean it's also a pretty
- 30:17Speaker 7: easy way to turn off the AI suggestions on your
- 30:20Speaker 7: Google Google account, which again if you want, if you
- 30:23Speaker 7: want to do it, you can Otherwise, I think it's
- 30:25Speaker 7: really really easy helpful.
- 30:27Speaker 1: Do you ever google yourself? And if so, is it accurate?
- 30:29Speaker 7: I don't have enough information about me and that's all
- 30:31Speaker 7: that cool, Like there's just nothing interesting on there for me.
- 30:35Speaker 1: But one thing with the AI, it's very flattering. No
- 30:37Speaker 1: matter what you put in there, it's gonna a lot
- 30:39Speaker 1: of putting the positive spin on everything.
- 30:41Speaker 4: Yeah, what the autofillains are when you google your name?
- 30:46Speaker 2: I worked at on Milwaukee and they relied a lot
- 30:48Speaker 2: on traffic coming from Google searches and stuff.
- 30:51Speaker 1: And now that's drying.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Up, right because like sixty eight percent of Google searches
- 30:56Speaker 2: now don't lead to an external link. They just like
- 30:58Speaker 2: it's just there and like okay, And it's like I said,
- 31:01Speaker 2: it's what they decide. You want one company deciding what
- 31:04Speaker 2: you see or should you have?
- 31:05Speaker 4: No?
- 31:05Speaker 7: I mean, but they do also sell ad revenue as
- 31:07Speaker 7: to where you can boost up into the spot, as
- 31:09Speaker 7: to where you would go into the.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Aren't they're they're getting away from that now they're there.
- 31:14Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, is like they're not. They're not
- 31:16Speaker 2: getting banged for the bucks. So those advertises are gonna
- 31:18Speaker 2: start looking for somewhere else to go.
- 31:19Speaker 7: Because then I think this is a good thing. Then
- 31:21Speaker 7: I don't know, why why are we upset about then
- 31:23Speaker 7: that should be a good thing. To be able to
- 31:24Speaker 7: find other ways of going about it, I don't know.
- 31:26Speaker 7: I think it's a lot easier to be able to
- 31:28Speaker 7: streamline stuff, but I also don't have four hours to
- 31:31Speaker 7: look through all the different links to make sure that
- 31:33Speaker 7: I'm getting into every single nooking crany.
- 31:35Speaker 1: I don't know you ever.
- 31:37Speaker 2: You have to trust, but verify because a lot of
- 31:39Speaker 2: the AI crap they throw it you just wrong.
- 31:41Speaker 8: I saw Andrew Jones on a podcast May upset that
- 31:44Speaker 8: AI said he didn't have homers off Mario, and he goes,
- 31:46Speaker 8: I can prove it now, so you do it anything wrong?
- 31:49Speaker 2: Yes, And so that's another step because you can't really
- 31:52Speaker 2: trust the Gemini recap because it's pulling from stuff, and
- 31:55Speaker 2: it might be pulling from a Reddit thread that's wrong.
- 31:58Speaker 4: I would say, just be aware.
- 31:59Speaker 7: I thought you could believe everything on the internet only Wikipedia.
- 32:03Speaker 7: You could always believe everything on the internet. Now they're
- 32:06Speaker 7: now everything on the Internet is not real.
- 32:09Speaker 1: What has dollars a year to Wikipedia? You give it
- 32:15Speaker 1: every Christmas? I get a three bucks.
- 32:17Speaker 8: You know. I haven't done it, but I have considered
- 32:20Speaker 8: doing that because I do love Wikipedia.
- 32:21Speaker 1: I love it. I mean, I know it's not ninety
- 32:23Speaker 1: nine point nine accurate, but it's it's.
- 32:25Speaker 4: Not pretty much.
- 32:25Speaker 1: It's my go to.
- 32:26Speaker 8: It's more reliable than regular Encyclopedia is not.
- 32:31Speaker 7: Nothing was more frustrating, though, when the teacher would tell
- 32:33Speaker 7: you Wikipedia is not a source you can't use.
- 32:35Speaker 4: I know, you got to go find the encyclopedia.
- 32:37Speaker 1: Like, come on, my wife's an educator. We go round
- 32:40Speaker 1: about that to this day.
- 32:41Speaker 4: Is Bill Schmid a good guy off the air?
- 32:43Speaker 1: I'm a good one. Let us know what it says.
- 32:47Speaker 2: Arm there's just reading a story here that said now
- 32:50Speaker 2: back in the day again, Google is offering all or nothing.
- 32:53Speaker 2: If you want to show up in search results, you
- 32:55Speaker 2: have to let the company then scrape your content to
- 32:58Speaker 2: feed its AI and some some companies are like, no,
- 33:01Speaker 2: we don't want to do that. We don't want to
- 33:02Speaker 2: because then they're throwing you into the mix and you're
- 33:05Speaker 2: not getting credit or clicks for your proprietary content.
- 33:09Speaker 1: I never thought I would see the day that Google
- 33:11Speaker 1: run its course, and it's certainly not at this point.
- 33:13Speaker 1: But I guess everything does if you if you alienate
- 33:18Speaker 1: enough people, I mean, I guess that's probably what's going on.
- 33:20Speaker 1: Somebody will start, somebody will start to go back to
- 33:22Speaker 1: ask jeeves.
- 33:23Speaker 7: Yeah, you know what else is I'll be I'll be
- 33:25Speaker 7: you guys in the hockey world.
- 33:27Speaker 4: I'll believe that when I see it.
- 33:28Speaker 1: Yeah listen, Oh yeah, I got on the ground floor.
- 33:32Speaker 1: Yahoo back in the day, and and that stock went
- 33:34Speaker 1: up and split went up and split with about like
- 33:35Speaker 1: eight times. And then and then, of course, like everything
- 33:37Speaker 1: I do, I sat on it too long.
- 33:39Speaker 4: And the bottoms good.
- 33:40Speaker 2: For generation behind you. Billy, you're gonna have to realize this.
- 33:44Speaker 2: There's a generation behind you. The generation behind you does
- 33:47Speaker 2: not like AI. They don't want data centers, they don't
- 33:49Speaker 2: want to like it. You know what's making a comeback now,
- 33:55Speaker 2: iPods like the non connected music vinyl where I.
- 34:00Speaker 4: Have not seen I have not seen one. I really
- 34:03Speaker 4: would love.
- 34:04Speaker 1: You know, you got to read some text sites because
- 34:05Speaker 1: it's starting to come back.
- 34:06Speaker 7: I've got a couple getting shuff exactly you were gone.
- 34:11Speaker 1: This is just like the Nike debate we had Nonconnected.
- 34:13Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we were talking about Nike being almost dead
- 34:16Speaker 2: as a brand, their market caps down to eighty percent.
- 34:18Speaker 1: They're not really cool anymore.
- 34:19Speaker 4: Yeah, nobody's wearing Nike stuff. Well, I Nike, so I
- 34:24Speaker 4: don't know what to listen.
- 34:25Speaker 1: I saw a lot of it at the British Open,
- 34:27Speaker 1: worn by players, and that's ironic because they failed at golf.
- 34:31Speaker 1: They don't make golf equipment anymore, but they still golf
- 34:34Speaker 1: gear that you can wear.
- 34:35Speaker 4: I gotta read this, all right, I says yes.
- 34:37Speaker 8: Billy Schmid is a highly positive reputation off the ear,
- 34:39Speaker 8: and its wildly regarded as a genuine, charismatic and family
- 34:42Speaker 8: oriented man.
- 34:43Speaker 4: By his colleagues and listeners from dot com. WHOA, I
- 34:46Speaker 4: don't know it's from I don't know. See that's the thing.
- 34:48Speaker 4: You get a source it.
- 34:49Speaker 1: So yeah, and I guess that's true. Point right there,
- 34:51Speaker 1: there we go.
- 34:52Speaker 4: All you gotta like that.
- 34:53Speaker 7: But see, you just say nice things about it, they'll
- 34:55Speaker 7: put it into their algorithm, and then when somebody searches
- 34:57Speaker 7: your name, they'll say nice things about you.
- 34:59Speaker 4: I like that worked out pretty well for me.
- 35:01Speaker 8: And then a lot of way, you're right, I mean,
- 35:02Speaker 8: that's and then true, that's your point, right. You can
- 35:04Speaker 8: just kind of funnel it the way you want.
- 35:06Speaker 1: Now pretty much.
- 35:07Speaker 8: Hey, all right, everybody starts, all right, everybody start filling right.
- 35:11Speaker 4: At threads with how great the huddle.
- 35:13Speaker 1: Is the world?
- 35:15Speaker 4: Google it and be like then we're locked in.
- 35:17Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that'll help. That will definitely out. Hey.
- 35:22Speaker 8: Dolph has strong professional relationships with long time goals like
- 35:25Speaker 8: Harmon Sorry interrolls.
- 35:26Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, Dolph, did you have fomo last night, not
- 35:29Speaker 2: being at the first twenty two to nothing victory, I
- 35:31Speaker 2: did not have fomo.
- 35:32Speaker 1: I actually went to bed after Yelly hit the home run.
- 35:34Speaker 1: I thought this thing's in the Yeah, it was a
- 35:37Speaker 1: forty five and I was tired. I was quite surprised, obviously,
- 35:40Speaker 1: it was funny to see some of the numbers popped
- 35:42Speaker 1: out by MLB. What was the one? The only worst
- 35:46Speaker 1: shutout in Major League history was in eighteen seventy eight.
- 35:49Speaker 1: It was the who was it the Indianapolis Cleveland Spiders
- 35:52Speaker 1: maybe or something. It was a weird name, but it
- 35:56Speaker 1: was twenty four nothing. Yeah, I'm really surprised by that.
- 35:59Speaker 1: All all the baseball games, thousands and thousands and thousands,
- 36:03Speaker 1: that's the worst one.
- 36:04Speaker 7: Ever, how many during that game did they have to wear?
- 36:06Speaker 7: If somebody was pimping a home run when you were
- 36:08Speaker 7: up at eighteen? Oh, did you imagine the unwritten rule
- 36:11Speaker 7: conversation on that game?
- 36:12Speaker 4: Guys running each other over their horse in the parking lot.
- 36:15Speaker 1: And if you're Luis Laard, did you really brag about
- 36:17Speaker 1: your home run position?
- 36:20Speaker 4: You might not. You might not brag what you counted. Okay,
- 36:23Speaker 4: you count that one, So.
- 36:24Speaker 2: Yeah, eighteen eighty five the Giants twenty four to nothing.
- 36:28Speaker 2: In eighteen eighty seven, Philadelphia Quakers over the Indianapolis.
- 36:33Speaker 1: What were they?
- 36:33Speaker 4: Well, I've been Quakers money in eighty seven.
- 36:38Speaker 1: I thought that was a great logo.
- 36:40Speaker 8: Had any good one white or gray, like that's the logo? Yeah,
- 36:44Speaker 8: they just had plain clothes, you know, suits on right.
- 36:48Speaker 8: It's amazing what we've done in this society. Like this
- 36:50Speaker 8: is before the telephone, wasn't it? And then we were
- 36:52Speaker 8: playing baseball so quick?
- 36:54Speaker 1: Well it's James Earl Jones said in Drew's favorite movie,
- 36:57Speaker 1: Field a Dream.
- 36:57Speaker 4: Yes, baseball.
- 37:00Speaker 8: Well, no, it depends, we asked, because you know, the
- 37:02Speaker 8: Savannah bananas.
- 37:03Speaker 4: Are ruining all the time.
- 37:04Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go.
- 37:07Speaker 4: Google card was wrong last night.
- 37:08Speaker 8: If you woke up and saw the little thing, if
- 37:10Speaker 8: you on to your scene.
- 37:12Speaker 4: I was a little nervous.
- 37:13Speaker 8: I was like, the Brewers are down one nothing because
- 37:15Speaker 8: I was I missed the first couple of innings and
- 37:17Speaker 8: it was wrong.
- 37:18Speaker 4: The Brewers are actually up.
- 37:19Speaker 1: Ye. Jake Bowers with the grittiest play of the night,
- 37:22Speaker 1: bashing into the big dumper and knocking the ball loose
- 37:24Speaker 1: on that first run. That was that set the tone.
- 37:26Speaker 1: It did what how about that dude? By the way,
- 37:28Speaker 1: this year so continues, he's been kind of a journeyman.
- 37:31Speaker 1: He's played. He played for the Mariners at one point, right,
- 37:34Speaker 1: and the Yankees and the Indians were got.
- 37:36Speaker 4: A great time to have a career year.
- 37:37Speaker 1: Yeah, for our topics yesterday was who's the Brewers m
- 37:40Speaker 1: v P?
- 37:40Speaker 2: Because by war it's terrang and then Miz, but by
- 37:44Speaker 2: by vibes and eye test its power.
- 37:46Speaker 7: I was gonna say Bowers hard hard to not give
- 37:49Speaker 7: it to Bowers with this one, but damn and time
- 37:51Speaker 7: Miz comes on, he's out. If anybody's gonna win the
- 37:54Speaker 7: Pitcher of the Year and the m v P. And
- 37:57Speaker 7: we go back to that.
- 37:58Speaker 1: Uh, you know he pitches once a week hard, you
- 38:00Speaker 1: know exactly.
- 38:01Speaker 2: Thanks man, good stuff, Dolf, thanks for popping up us.
- 38:03Speaker 2: Appreciate it. You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin,
- 38:08Speaker 2: Drew billion Armer bringing it to you hot Teke Humpte
- 38:12Speaker 2: get him to us eight seven seven, seven nine four
- 38:14Speaker 2: one ninety seven three.
- 38:15Speaker 1: Time for a little who's hot? Who's not? Brought to
- 38:17Speaker 1: us by Donovan Jorgenson Heating and cooling.
- 38:20Speaker 7: How about Braxton Ashcraft, He's becoming a mainstay in the
- 38:25Speaker 7: hot category.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Drew he's the new Paul Skeins.
- 38:28Speaker 7: He uh, he had a number that is Optimus stats
- 38:32Speaker 7: put up and compared him to Greg Maddox that they're
- 38:34Speaker 7: like the only two guys here. It is last two
- 38:37Speaker 7: starts for Braxton Ashcraft, nine innings, eighty five pitches. Last
- 38:39Speaker 7: night as he shut the door in the Pirates beat
- 38:42Speaker 7: the Tigers four to one. He went eight innings, give
- 38:45Speaker 7: up five hits, walked none, one loan run on eighty pitches.
- 38:51Speaker 7: It's over those one hundred and sixty five pitches for
- 38:54Speaker 7: his last seventeen innings. He's the first pitcher to toss
- 38:57Speaker 7: eight at least eight innings averaging ten or feet were
- 39:00Speaker 7: pitches per inning in back to back starts since the
- 39:03Speaker 7: man that coined the term, Greg Maddox in two thousand
- 39:07Speaker 7: and he started looking through Greg Maddox's numbers. My god,
- 39:09Speaker 7: I mean, like, there are certain people that you kind
- 39:12Speaker 7: of forget about of just how dominant, how good they
- 39:14Speaker 7: were in an era where everything was let's hit as
- 39:17Speaker 7: many home runs as possible, let's strike everybody out. People
- 39:20Speaker 7: would love to understand how dominant good Greg Maddox is
- 39:23Speaker 7: It's almost like when you show somebody the numbers that
- 39:26Speaker 7: Larry Bird put up and being liked. If we could
- 39:29Speaker 7: put the Larry Bird highlights and you just put the
- 39:31Speaker 7: caption of Larry Bird was a problem. Think about what
- 39:34Speaker 7: Larry Bird would do with ten three point opportunities a game.
- 39:38Speaker 7: You just you bland them into different different games. The
- 39:41Speaker 7: holes in guys swings man Greg maddox would be cooking
- 39:45Speaker 7: in today's game.
- 39:46Speaker 4: Sadly, the Cubs stay hot. They won again back to back.
- 39:49Speaker 4: Alex Bregman had the walk off hit.
- 39:51Speaker 7: He told Taylor McGregor after the game, what do you
- 39:54Speaker 7: do during an hour and a half rain Delayserer coming back?
- 39:56Speaker 7: He said, honestly, I went in an ate pizza and
- 39:59Speaker 7: drink doctor p If that's the secret, sauce, I think
- 40:03Speaker 7: we all can play the Major.
- 40:04Speaker 4: I'm ready to go.
- 40:05Speaker 1: I guess I'm ready to go. Who's not hot? The
- 40:07Speaker 1: Seattle Mariners?
- 40:08Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, the Seattle Mariners and Julio Rodriguez tough night.
- 40:11Speaker 7: Even though Murph said I was playing catch with my
- 40:14Speaker 7: kid at the time, I would have thrown the ball
- 40:15Speaker 7: into this thing.
- 40:16Speaker 1: Absolutely, absolutely, that's who's hot? Who's not?
- 40:18Speaker 2: Brought to us by Donovan Jorgens to check them out.
