1:09

1:20
Speaker 4: is on the air, ready to dominate the Thursday edition
1:27
Speaker 4: of the Huddle, just like the Brewers dominated at regular
1:29
Speaker 4: Field this week.
1:30
Speaker 2: Welcome in Fuckers six oh two am.
1:33
Speaker 6: Early risers, insomniacx sociopaths who get up early and see
1:37
Speaker 6: the sun rise on this glorious Thursday, and the good land. Yeah,
1:40
Speaker 6: it's a little chili out. It is quick, however it
1:44
Speaker 6: is uh. It feels warmer because the Brewers beat the
1:46
Speaker 6: Cubs three games at Field, Brewers game and a half
1:49
Speaker 6: in front first place. The record is twenty nine and eighteen.
1:56
Speaker 3: Twenty nine and eighteen for a team that was sixteen
1:59
Speaker 3: and sixteen feen and fifteen a couple of weeks ago.
2:01
Speaker 6: And their road record is fourteen and nine, which is
2:03
Speaker 6: always a good sete.
2:04
Speaker 2: That's amazing.
2:05
Speaker 6: Run differential is through the roof. The pitching, like again,
2:09
Speaker 6: has been incredible, was the series another shutout. Harrison was great,
2:14
Speaker 6: arguably better than Miss We're getting used a.
2:16
Speaker 3: Better line than Miss, yeah, and arguably more dominating. Like
2:20
Speaker 3: I get Miss has the flashy numbers, he's got the
2:23
Speaker 3: round numbers. He's got the one on one gas that
2:25
Speaker 3: is hard to fathom. It's one that entrances us a
2:29
Speaker 3: little bit? Is that a good word choice for it?
2:31
Speaker 2: Arman?
2:31
Speaker 1: You see it?
2:32
Speaker 3: You just you just get mesmerized by it, exactly, Harry,
2:35
Speaker 3: you get mesmerized, all right, look at you and that
2:40
Speaker 3: look at you in that bullpen Jaggon.
2:42
Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking about.
2:43
Speaker 3: But it's almost like it's almost like watching the Western
2:46
Speaker 3: Conference finals, right, Uh. Miss is Wemby, he's flash, he's excitement,
2:51
Speaker 3: he's something you haven't seen before, alien looking and ass
2:54
Speaker 3: and elbows coming right at you and everything possible at you,
2:58
Speaker 3: and then and helbows and then all of a sudden, Kyle,
3:01
Speaker 3: Harrison's just sga all substance, no flash, no all substance,
3:06
Speaker 3: A couple of pitches dicing me up, effective as always,
3:09
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden.
3:09
Speaker 2: You look down at it.
3:10
Speaker 3: Wait seven and eleven, k is goodness? Great? Yeah, yeah, seven, you're.
3:15
Speaker 1: Right he's getting the k numbers. It wasn't like he
3:17
Speaker 1: was like Mike Caldwell ground Bawl Merchant. He was getting
3:20
Speaker 1: a lot of strikeouts like that reference true, but it
3:23
Speaker 1: was it was just impressive to watch last night.
3:25
Speaker 2: You're right, Billy, it's like the you know, the thunder
3:29
Speaker 2: and lightning.
3:29
Speaker 1: Okay, so maybe you think of like Maddick, Smoltz and Glavin. Right,
3:33
Speaker 1: he's like the Glavin like understated but still just spinning
3:36
Speaker 1: guys up, tying them up and getting the outs, getting
3:38
Speaker 1: the strikeouts. It is something It is something special to see,
3:42
Speaker 1: there's no question about it. And amazing the threshold of
3:45
Speaker 1: expectation were on now because Brews, like you said, they
3:48
Speaker 1: were at five hundred and they go on this run
3:50
Speaker 1: basically what they did last year, but they didn't start
3:52
Speaker 1: into Memorial Day.
3:53
Speaker 2: Weren't we like under five hundred Memorial Day last year?
3:55
Speaker 2: That we go down I'm saying we're gonna win ninety
3:57
Speaker 2: seven again.
3:58
Speaker 1: No, that's an incredible expectation threshold to reach. However, I
4:02
Speaker 1: mean once again, boom, all right, here we go. It's
4:05
Speaker 1: like it's like kind of a routine now to see
4:07
Speaker 1: the Brewers hit a big run and all of a
4:09
Speaker 1: sudden just dominate the league.
4:10
Speaker 2: So I hope we can take.
4:11
Speaker 6: This this This was the Harris game. It was also the
4:13
Speaker 6: David Hamilton game. Hamilton's three for four scores twice, drives
4:17
Speaker 6: in a run, had the Little League homer all that
4:22
Speaker 6: square to pass Pete Crow Armstrong, he.
4:24
Speaker 2: Didn't miss a shot.
4:25
Speaker 6: Yeah, Schurio and Yelich did nothing. But one of the
4:28
Speaker 6: well we talked about in terms of like helping the
4:31
Speaker 6: pitchers out. But William Contreras is starting to get hot,
4:34
Speaker 6: and we said last year, I think that was the
4:36
Speaker 6: thing that was missing was his thumb. If he's three
4:38
Speaker 6: for four with a walk, he's not knocking on the
4:40
Speaker 6: door of batting three hundred again. If the power comes
4:44
Speaker 6: back a little bit, you got something there.
4:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do.
4:47
Speaker 3: And what you also have is, I don't know, there's
4:49
Speaker 3: many guys that square up line drives like Contreras as well.
4:53
Speaker 3: I mean, he rockets some balls around gaps and he
4:57
Speaker 3: has a good ability to pay his spot right. Like,
5:01
Speaker 3: there's not a whole lot of guys I think that
5:02
Speaker 3: plays the baseball as much. Nowadays, it feels like Contreras
5:06
Speaker 3: has the ability to and yeah, that's the stick.
5:08
Speaker 2: In the middle of the lineup.
5:10
Speaker 3: That is a game changer because Terrang has been far
5:14
Speaker 3: too good to overlook and way too productive for the
5:17
Speaker 3: rest of the league to miss. And I mean you
5:20
Speaker 3: are still what twelve games into Yellicist season, what fifteen
5:24
Speaker 3: games into Yelli's season, maybe I don't know exactly how
5:26
Speaker 3: many he'd had before the injury, but still getting himself
5:30
Speaker 3: back to for him and Surio has been just a
5:32
Speaker 3: tick away like the wind I thought caught one of
5:35
Speaker 3: his last night, Maybe in a couple of different ballparks
5:38
Speaker 3: would have had a chance to go. They're going to roll.
5:41
Speaker 3: But with Schurio, terrangg and Contreras at the top of
5:44
Speaker 3: that lineup and then aided in the in the middle
5:47
Speaker 3: of it, guys by don't look now, I'm not gonna
5:51
Speaker 3: go arm and Nick Meer's All Star game. But Jake
5:53
Speaker 3: Bauers into into consideration because he's been phenomenal and he
5:57
Speaker 3: just lengthens that lineup in the middle of it in
5:59
Speaker 3: two ninety one with a five hundred slugging percentage. You
6:02
Speaker 3: do this for another month and it's gonna be hard
6:04
Speaker 3: to overlook him. In that conversation, Hunter laid it out
6:06
Speaker 3: pretty well. I think it was on a show that
6:08
Speaker 3: he's already matched a lot of his cunning stats from
6:10
Speaker 3: last year, or at least it's close to it. Yeah,
6:12
Speaker 3: he's having probably the best year of his career. He's
6:14
Speaker 3: poised to do it.
6:15
Speaker 1: You want to just hope that continues, because you're right, Billy,
6:17
Speaker 1: I mean, the streak he's on now, the hitting streak,
6:20
Speaker 1: reaching base, what he's done, it's not out of the
6:23
Speaker 1: possibility that he could definitely be in that mix. You mentioned, Yelloch,
6:26
Speaker 1: how many games he's now played twenty eighty played, appearance
6:30
Speaker 1: in seventy four at bats, twenty games this year, so
6:33
Speaker 1: he's gonna getting it going. But yeah, it was. It
6:35
Speaker 1: was that type of night last night. And you guys
6:37
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier the wind and how certain balls. What ball
6:40
Speaker 1: was it that Saya Suzuki took off his chest like
6:43
Speaker 1: a soccer pro.
6:44
Speaker 2: It was a Hamilton? Was the Hamilton triple? Right?
6:46
Speaker 1: So it was just a wild night. I mean, I'm like, well,
6:49
Speaker 1: good going. You blocked it. I mean you're not a
6:51
Speaker 1: goalie though.
6:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a weird play in that corner there.
6:56
Speaker 2: That was that was strange.
6:57
Speaker 6: You can reach us Nicolay lottak Co'm talking Tech eight
7:00
Speaker 6: people doing seven three. We want to know what was
7:03
Speaker 6: your favorite part of the three game sweep by the Brewers.
7:07
Speaker 2: To me, it was the triple play kill.
7:09
Speaker 6: Shot when they were able to move into first place,
7:12
Speaker 6: move ten games over and you know, win the series.
7:15
Speaker 2: That was the triple play.
7:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it then gets validated the next night, right, like,
7:20
Speaker 3: because that that triple play, you're right, because you hit
7:22
Speaker 3: that all in game two.
7:24
Speaker 2: Yep.
7:24
Speaker 3: But then if you would have lost last night, you
7:26
Speaker 3: would have hit the milestone, but you get bounced back.
7:29
Speaker 3: You hit the checkpoint, but all of a sudden, quickly
7:32
Speaker 3: onto the next level, you die right away. I mean
7:34
Speaker 3: like you're you're talking in an old school Mario Kart style.
7:37
Speaker 3: You're jumping right off that block and resetting, and instead
7:40
Speaker 3: you just build off of it going into a Dodger series.
7:42
Speaker 6: That's awesome, and it can change in a heartbeat. The
7:45
Speaker 6: Cubs are proof. The Cubs had won ten in a row.
7:47
Speaker 6: Now they've lost what nine of eleven. It's like that,
7:49
Speaker 6: it can change even if you are a good club,
7:51
Speaker 6: and the Cubs again, I know people hate to hear it,
7:54
Speaker 6: the Cubs are a good club.
7:55
Speaker 3: I actually like it though Durie is a good player,
7:58
Speaker 3: I like it better when they are good.
8:00
Speaker 2: Yes, right, like just like how.
8:02
Speaker 3: We've we've gone in on the on the conversation with
8:04
Speaker 3: the Packers and Bears. This is way more fun when
8:07
Speaker 3: both teams are good.
8:08
Speaker 2: I didn't mention it yet.
8:10
Speaker 6: During our little U our pow wow on Tuesday with
8:12
Speaker 6: Wayne Larrby West hog Quitz at our the Packers speaker
8:14
Speaker 6: series at Harley, Davids shot out to everybody who we met,
8:17
Speaker 6: was awesome having a good time.
8:19
Speaker 2: Had our bosses there too. Was yeahs to have our bosses,
8:24
Speaker 2: especially when you're looking as cool as Drew was in
8:26
Speaker 2: that sound.
8:27
Speaker 3: I walk in, I gotta I got a new shirt,
8:29
Speaker 3: thinking I'm looking at all of sudden Drew walks in,
8:32
Speaker 3: just devilishes. All of a sudden, our new boss walks in.
8:35
Speaker 3: He goes, you guys are looking spiffy. I'm like that
8:37
Speaker 3: one right there, making us all that will.
8:39
Speaker 2: Give you a lyften.
8:40
Speaker 6: It was, it was, It was a nice And then
8:42
Speaker 6: then I saw them again at the party later on
8:44
Speaker 6: at the Summerfest party, and I had changed clothes, that
8:46
Speaker 6: went home, worked out, and then change clothes again and
8:48
Speaker 6: they're like and that's our boss.
8:51
Speaker 2: Quick double take.
8:52
Speaker 6: He didn't like recognize me at first because I'm wearing
8:54
Speaker 6: different clothes.
8:54
Speaker 2: I'm like, it's all right.
8:56
Speaker 1: I like that, you know, but you know, looking good,
8:58
Speaker 1: Billy looking good dresser.
9:00
Speaker 2: Yes, sure, Billy was sharp.
9:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was good as good as this body kill
9:04
Speaker 3: Wes who was Wes just wore the Packers like quartership.
9:07
Speaker 2: I think because he just West. He's a West. That's hot.
9:11
Speaker 3: He knows what that's address. Yeah, he knows what's cooking.
9:13
Speaker 3: Wayne Lanermy always puts us all the shame, but he
9:15
Speaker 3: just makes us all look so yeah, yeah, all right
9:19
Speaker 3: eight seven, seven, seven, nine four one ninety three. Meanwhile,
9:21
Speaker 3: back here among the tired strip club ads, Oklahoma City
9:24
Speaker 3: got off the deck. Even the series against the Spurs,
9:28
Speaker 3: that's gonna be that's the finals. To me, that is
9:30
Speaker 3: the best series that the NBA can offer us, and
9:33
Speaker 3: we're getting it now. So if you're not watching it,
9:35
Speaker 3: you're not watching Wemby and you're not watching sg A.
9:38
Speaker 2: You're missing you're missing it pretty good. It's gonna be
9:40
Speaker 2: a good series, and.
9:41
Speaker 3: This one gonna live up more than when we both
9:44
Speaker 3: when we all thought that the national Championship was the
9:47
Speaker 3: semi final right in the in the NCAA, it felt
9:50
Speaker 3: like it was gonna be Arizona Michigan. That was the
9:52
Speaker 3: true national title and that game was cheeks from the start.
9:55
Speaker 3: This has been phenomenal and man, you're seeing.
9:58
Speaker 2: The im mortal version of.
10:00
Speaker 3: Okay see that we haven't seen in like two years
10:02
Speaker 3: that they are. They're tasting blood throughout the entire game,
10:06
Speaker 3: and it is wild to see young guys star the
10:09
Speaker 3: way the Spurs are. They're literally changing rules in the NBA.
10:12
Speaker 3: So you don't do what the Spurs just did. They
10:15
Speaker 3: hit the lottery three straight years. Luckily they had three
10:18
Speaker 3: teams pass on Stefan Castle. That was three teams passed
10:22
Speaker 3: on Stefan Castle. Whether you watch him in a Spurs
10:24
Speaker 3: uniform like you saw him do it in the National
10:26
Speaker 3: title game or anything, I don't know. In an entire
10:28
Speaker 3: finals final four run tire National Championship run, four teams
10:32
Speaker 3: passed on him. You'll win the lottery in the best
10:35
Speaker 3: lottery in maybe twenty years. With Wemby and then Dylan Harper,
10:38
Speaker 3: who looked.
10:40
Speaker 2: Like that team couldn't win any big ten games.
10:43
Speaker 3: At Rutgers, they had two top five picks, and one
10:46
Speaker 3: of the knocks was they don't do enough things that
10:49
Speaker 3: help you win, and Dylan Harper's doing everything to help them.
10:52
Speaker 1: Win, certainly in that role. Now he did have the injury,
10:54
Speaker 1: so we'll see if he's okay. Jalen Williams also had
10:57
Speaker 1: some tightness I saw. Those are two things to follow
10:59
Speaker 1: in the series. But it's been quite interesting all year.
11:02
Speaker 1: People have wondered is san Antonio Oklahoma City's kryptonite. It
11:05
Speaker 1: sure seems like they're gonna have trouble with them even
11:07
Speaker 1: if they do him in the series. They won last night,
11:09
Speaker 1: but if I like, san Antonio kind of had them
11:11
Speaker 1: on the ropes in some parts of the game last night,
11:14
Speaker 1: okayse survives.
11:15
Speaker 2: We're gonna see what happens on this series shift location.
11:18
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a I think it's gonna be a
11:19
Speaker 2: Donnybrook buckle up.
11:20
Speaker 6: And the other thing I thought when you watch these
11:22
Speaker 6: guys is we're coming to the point it's gonna happen
11:25
Speaker 6: eventually where Lebron and Steph and the guys that we've
11:30
Speaker 6: known and loved for the last fifteen years twenty years
11:32
Speaker 6: are gonna be gone. But we're in good hands. Because
11:35
Speaker 6: Wemby's awesome. Like Wemby makes me think of Otani, Yes,
11:38
Speaker 6: because it's like, dude, to do what he does is
11:40
Speaker 6: like that's a freak of nature. So and Otani's another example,
11:44
Speaker 6: Like there's a guy that we're fixated on, and you
11:46
Speaker 6: know sports, there will be new stars. Sga and Wemby
11:50
Speaker 6: are gonna be the guys we look to and we'll
11:52
Speaker 6: be talking about, oh are they the goat?
11:53
Speaker 2: You know, they will enter the discussion.
11:56
Speaker 6: Yes, when Lebron is on his couch watching games, that's
12:00
Speaker 6: we're in good hands there. I thought the same thing
12:03
Speaker 6: yesterday when we finally got we got the news that
12:04
Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers is going to be a one and done.
12:06
Speaker 6: This is it farewell tour for Aaron Rodgers. Get the
12:09
Speaker 6: rocking chair, let him be celebrated. I like that he's
12:11
Speaker 6: going out this way. I'm glad that his final pass
12:14
Speaker 6: wasn't a pick six in the playoffs. Yeah, let him
12:17
Speaker 6: go out this way and then let the chips fall
12:19
Speaker 6: where they may. They're not gonna win the super Bowl,
12:21
Speaker 6: but nobody does, like, you know, no, that's a great point. True,
12:25
Speaker 6: nobody is Lway and Manning. Lay and Manning were the outliers.
12:29
Speaker 6: You know, they don't do it. It doesn't happen most
12:31
Speaker 6: of the time. You end like Farv and you limp.
12:33
Speaker 6: Or I'm old enough to say, like Willie Mays stumbling
12:37
Speaker 6: around the outfield looking like a shell of himself, Like
12:39
Speaker 6: who's that old guy? Looks like he's playing in an
12:40
Speaker 6: old timer's game. But this is a real major league game.
12:43
Speaker 6: You just don't get the storybook endings for the most part.
12:47
Speaker 6: Now Rodgers can write his own thing. I wish, I
12:49
Speaker 6: wish Farv had done. I wish I think all good
12:51
Speaker 6: players should just say, all right, I'm gonna do one
12:53
Speaker 6: more this is don't just like sit there and you know,
12:56
Speaker 6: hem and haw and just like declare it and then
12:59
Speaker 6: enjoy it and then right out and then beat that piece.
13:01
Speaker 3: Yeah. I thought one of my favorite sendoffs of all
13:04
Speaker 3: time was Derek jeters send off when he let it
13:06
Speaker 3: know he was gonna be my last year and every
13:09
Speaker 3: where he went. Now baseball's a little bit different. You
13:12
Speaker 3: accept a gift, you smile at home plate, and people
13:15
Speaker 3: around the sport can thank you for what you've given
13:17
Speaker 3: the sport. Now Packers fans have been able to enjoy
13:20
Speaker 3: it more than ever more than anybody else. But there's
13:23
Speaker 3: a lot of folks that for the last two decades
13:25
Speaker 3: their sports life, they've watched him dominate the sport and
13:29
Speaker 3: to be able to see it one last time and
13:31
Speaker 3: hopefully Drew to your point, just not have it be
13:35
Speaker 3: in the fashion that he went out last year. Generally speaking,
13:38
Speaker 3: that's how it goes, right. Drew Brees could not throw
13:40
Speaker 3: the ball further than twenty yards in his final game.
13:43
Speaker 2: It was felt bad for him. You did one.
13:45
Speaker 3: Thousand percent and Aaron didn't look that way a year ago.
13:48
Speaker 3: I don't think he's going to look like that this year.
13:51
Speaker 3: But let's just have it be your final one and
13:53
Speaker 3: enjoy it with Mike and just wrap that tie a
13:55
Speaker 3: beautiful bow on a legendary career.
13:57
Speaker 2: It's interesting because a lot of people we tend to.
13:59
Speaker 1: Forget it those bad years as the public over time,
14:01
Speaker 1: you remember the good ones.
14:02
Speaker 2: But you don't remember Jordan with the Wizards.
14:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, sadly, that's so that's the only thing that I
14:08
Speaker 3: do remember, right Like, so there will be a generation
14:11
Speaker 3: where the only time they remember Rogers is running out
14:13
Speaker 3: of the tunnel with the Jets flag. In these last
14:16
Speaker 3: two years, maybe with the Steelers.
14:17
Speaker 1: It's just hard though, because athletes at that level always
14:20
Speaker 1: believe they can do it, So they're never gonna believe
14:22
Speaker 1: this is the end. They're gonna believe. It's like what
14:24
Speaker 1: if Tom Brady retired at thirty eight? Yeah, he lost
14:26
Speaker 1: seven years. You could go back and forth. I understand
14:30
Speaker 1: why it's hard.
14:31
Speaker 2: Rogers turns forty three in December. That's old.
14:33
Speaker 6: Shouldn't be that hard, Like he's playing with twenty year
14:36
Speaker 6: olds and he turns forty three in December. I mean,
14:39
Speaker 6: I get it freakish how long he's played, and enjoy it,
14:42
Speaker 6: but just give yourself the deadline and say this is it.
14:44
Speaker 2: I'm gonna work one more year and then that's it.
14:46
Speaker 2: It don't work like that.
14:47
Speaker 1: I know you, I know what you're saying, Andrew, But
14:49
Speaker 1: in those mentality, those guys Psyche's.
14:51
Speaker 6: It's just but well, there's also you know, twenty to
14:54
Speaker 6: twenty five million reasons to come back.
14:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty million.
14:57
Speaker 3: Is a tough one too to completely turn around from.
15:00
Speaker 3: But armand and I get into this a lot because
15:02
Speaker 3: I know Arman would like it to be like chet Steadman,
15:05
Speaker 3: who the last pitch he throws in Rookie of the year,
15:08
Speaker 3: his arm actually blows up and he's got to run
15:11
Speaker 3: to home plate to try to tag the guy out.
15:13
Speaker 3: That's where I feel like you always believe the great
15:16
Speaker 3: players will go.
15:18
Speaker 2: A lot more.
15:19
Speaker 3: Have put a shot clock on it a lot more,
15:21
Speaker 3: especially in recent vintage. Now maybe it's on a different
15:23
Speaker 3: side of the ball, but I'm looking at JJ Watt,
15:27
Speaker 3: Aaron Donald, a lot with still tread on the tires.
15:31
Speaker 3: A lot of good football still have to play. But
15:33
Speaker 3: I want to go out knowing I can still play.
15:36
Speaker 3: That was always the way Aaron had said it, and
15:40
Speaker 3: I think he put up a season last year that
15:42
Speaker 3: would would lend itself to it, right like he can
15:46
Speaker 3: still play. Nobody is fully questioning that he is a scrub.
15:50
Speaker 3: He's not out here being a folklore or a caricature
15:53
Speaker 3: of himself. But there's there's only so much that he
15:56
Speaker 3: can do right now. So let's get out, get through
15:58
Speaker 3: this thing healthy, and enjoy the fact that the Steelers
16:01
Speaker 3: play the Packers first game of the year, the first
16:03
Speaker 3: preseason game of the year.
16:05
Speaker 2: Maybe Aaron Rodgers, Yeah no, he won't do that.
16:07
Speaker 3: He won't do that, but he'll go out for maybe
16:09
Speaker 3: the coin toss, and we can have that.
16:10
Speaker 6: Ceremonies and they won't do a they won't do a
16:13
Speaker 6: joint practice probably either, So I wish that they would
16:16
Speaker 6: just somehow.
16:17
Speaker 3: Wouldn't that be cool? Work it out with the Steelers.
16:20
Speaker 3: We'll give you one next year. Let us host that thing. Yeah,
16:23
Speaker 3: let us let us flip this thing around. We'll give
16:26
Speaker 3: you an IOU, we'll write it and pen we'll send
16:29
Speaker 3: it over to you. You guys get our preseason game
16:31
Speaker 3: next year. However you want to work it out, just
16:34
Speaker 3: let us host this one and let him walk out
16:35
Speaker 3: of that visitors tunnel one time.
16:37
Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be awesome? I mean, he deserves that moment.
16:39
Speaker 1: It would be a great moment, but it won't happen,
16:41
Speaker 1: but it'd be so cool.
16:43
Speaker 2: I think you're right.
16:44
Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting, though, Billy, when you you mentioned,
16:47
Speaker 1: you know, I think he mentioned yesterday. I thought it
16:50
Speaker 1: was interesting that he was pretty much decided he was
16:53
Speaker 1: going to call it a career until they brought back
16:55
Speaker 1: Mike and it made him reconsider. And that made me
16:57
Speaker 1: feel good too, because they put the warm fuzzies and
16:59
Speaker 1: me like, oh, he just wants to be with whole
17:01
Speaker 1: coach Mike one more time. And then I'm like, oh,
17:03
Speaker 1: he guess I guess he enjoyed him. I guess it
17:05
Speaker 1: wasn't a bad relationship. I guess it wasn't. If he
17:08
Speaker 1: didn't like planning for Big Mike, he wouldn't have come
17:10
Speaker 1: back for one more year with him.
17:12
Speaker 2: So I enjoyed that too a little bit. So I
17:14
Speaker 2: thought it was interesting.
17:15
Speaker 1: He said he was gonna retire until he started considering again.
17:18
Speaker 2: When when, uh are we are we believing? Guys? The uh?
17:23
Speaker 3: The online pictures though, of Aaron's reported.
17:28
Speaker 2: Wife, it's fake.
17:28
Speaker 1: I already checked into it, Brittany, that's a fake picture.
17:31
Speaker 1: It's a I whenever you want, it's all right.
17:33
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I wanted to be true too, Avilli. I
17:35
Speaker 2: thought that'd be funny, but I knew, I knew you
17:37
Speaker 2: have that thing sniffed out right away. That remains to me.
17:42
Speaker 6: One of the great unsolved mysteries, Like how is how
17:46
Speaker 6: has he kept it under wraps this long? Really impressive
17:50
Speaker 6: stuff is?
17:52
Speaker 2: It's why it's easy to believe it's not real. I
17:54
Speaker 2: was gonna say, where's TMZ on this?
17:56
Speaker 6: Where it's like you would think somebody would make it
17:58
Speaker 6: their mission to stake him out stalk him and get
18:01
Speaker 6: a photo or something. I'm glad no one has Inoxborough.
18:04
Speaker 6: He's uh, that's true, he's in. He deserves his privacy,
18:07
Speaker 6: but that is one of the ends. I don't know, man.
18:10
Speaker 6: Part of me thinks the way Rogers is, it could
18:13
Speaker 6: be like a mantiiteo thing.
18:14
Speaker 2: I'm not really married.
18:15
Speaker 6: I've had your suckers wondering about this, like he's just
18:17
Speaker 6: manipulating everybody, And.
18:20
Speaker 3: I've gone through all the different possibilities in my mind.
18:23
Speaker 3: That one absolutely was one of them. He's trolling everybody.
18:27
Speaker 6: And see, I'll show you how idiots, how stupid your
18:30
Speaker 6: media people are.
18:31
Speaker 3: He walks down Las Vegas Boulevard after eloping with a
18:34
Speaker 3: new supermandel life in two years.
18:35
Speaker 2: That'd be hilarious.
18:36
Speaker 6: So I remember a smaller story, smaller scale. But Katie
18:41
Speaker 6: Nolan and her boyfriend that Dan Soder oh, yeah, the
18:45
Speaker 6: comedian guy. Uh, they were like dating, but it was unofficial.
18:50
Speaker 6: They were friends and then they kind of started dating,
18:52
Speaker 6: which is probably a pretty good way to go about it,
18:54
Speaker 6: because my wife and I were friends socially for a
18:56
Speaker 6: year or two before we started the date, and they
19:00
Speaker 6: were at a wedding with for somebody from ESPN. I
19:02
Speaker 6: can't remember who it was. But then Marty Smith was
19:04
Speaker 6: at their table, and the deal was that this wedding
19:07
Speaker 6: was like, you know, no phones, no nothing, so they
19:08
Speaker 6: thought they were safe and they were there as a
19:10
Speaker 6: couple and it was kind of like their soft launch.
19:14
Speaker 6: People didn't know that though they were just friends. But yeah,
19:17
Speaker 6: and then I guess like Marty Smith showed up at
19:19
Speaker 6: the wedding lake because he'd been covering something.
19:21
Speaker 2: Are you coming from working?
19:22
Speaker 6: But he sits out of the reception, he takes out
19:24
Speaker 6: a camera, like posts a picture of his table or
19:26
Speaker 6: a video of.
19:26
Speaker 2: His table, and those two are sit together and he
19:28
Speaker 2: like outed them.
19:30
Speaker 6: So even if you're trying to be even if you're
19:33
Speaker 6: trying to be guarded and stuff, it's almost impossible. So
19:36
Speaker 6: for Rogers to pull that off, it's almost as incredible
19:39
Speaker 6: as his quarterback rating and his touchdown interception ratio career.
19:44
Speaker 6: That no one sleuthed out who he's married to when
19:47
Speaker 6: he's been married a year and he talked about it
19:48
Speaker 6: on McAfee. It's like, okay, come on, Like Baktiari hasn't
19:52
Speaker 6: let its slip or cop or anybody that's inner circle
19:55
Speaker 6: with him.
19:55
Speaker 3: No kid is an inner circle and Drew, I mean apparently,
19:58
Speaker 3: and when he's on McAfee's talk talking about like all
20:01
Speaker 3: they're doing, is it right? So like for the fact
20:04
Speaker 3: that nobody has been able to find it, maybe it's
20:06
Speaker 3: just because they're just so sequestered away just chewing and doing. Yeah,
20:11
Speaker 3: I mean like that might just be the case. And
20:13
Speaker 3: he's come out of here rejuvenated as ever. But we'll see.
20:18
Speaker 3: I hope it works out well for him. I don't
20:20
Speaker 3: think the Steelers are gonna be much of a factor
20:22
Speaker 3: in the AFC, but I don't know.
20:24
Speaker 1: We'll just wait till Big Mike puts that West Coast
20:26
Speaker 1: offense again for him. Yeah, the concepts and the you
20:29
Speaker 1: know what, Aaron loves that offense, you know, But.
20:32
Speaker 3: The way they operated all off season, I don't know
20:34
Speaker 3: how they could have gone somewhere else. They trade for
20:37
Speaker 3: Michael Pittman, nearly thirty year old wide receiver keep in DK,
20:40
Speaker 3: They brought back Cam Hayward, TJ. Watt, all the old
20:44
Speaker 3: guys in old guard on the defensive side. They were
20:47
Speaker 3: building this thing for one last run. We'll see how
20:49
Speaker 3: see how that one runs, most likely exactly how the
20:52
Speaker 3: Steelers have run for the last decade and a half.
20:54
Speaker 1: And this is great for McCarthy because no one's gonna
20:56
Speaker 1: judge him on the results this year. They know it's
20:58
Speaker 1: the last year with Aaron. It's gonna be kind of
21:00
Speaker 1: a farewell year. Be nice if they won, But if
21:02
Speaker 1: they don't, they they're gonna judge am onut what happens
21:04
Speaker 1: with the next group and how he builds the next team.
21:06
Speaker 1: So I think it's a nice little mulligan here for
21:08
Speaker 1: McCarthy if he if he cares about stuff like that,
21:11
Speaker 1: I don't know if he does well.
21:13
Speaker 2: He just wants to win. I'm just a highly successful
21:18
Speaker 2: football business as.
21:19
Speaker 1: Usual here at the facility, and that's how we approach
21:22
Speaker 1: nobody's underdog for the Pittsburgh program.
21:25

Speaker 6: much fun coming off the sweep of the Cubs. I
23:02
Speaker 6: have not been to this venue.
23:04
Speaker 5: Shannon, my partner, went to Yellow Card on Sunday night,
23:08
Speaker 5: said this place, this place is really nice.
23:10
Speaker 1: The yellow car was in town Sunday night. You missed
23:12
Speaker 1: it Moday night, and I love Yellow Card. I saw
23:14
Speaker 1: him a summer fresh. She went to a concert on
23:16
Speaker 1: a school night. She took She took Monday off.
23:18
Speaker 2: Oh well, there you go. See veteran move again.

23:25
Speaker 2: That's a veteran move.
23:27
Speaker 5: Well, I mean if you cannot, If you can get
23:29
Speaker 5: five days off and only have to burn too.
23:31
Speaker 2: That's incredible. This is how you win awards. True, we
23:33
Speaker 2: got we gotta take this, How you gotta take how
23:35
Speaker 2: you stay fresh.
23:37
Speaker 6: Last year was the first time in twenty some years
23:39
Speaker 6: of doing radio that I took off during the All
23:41
Speaker 6: Star week and it was like, God, why haven't I
23:43
Speaker 6: been doing this the entire tchine It's low tide of
23:46
Speaker 6: the sports calendar, like there's nothing going on but the
23:48
Speaker 6: Baseball All Star Game.
23:49
Speaker 5: Well here, Milwaukee's kind of like taking off during Summerfest,
23:52
Speaker 5: you know. And now they've made it easier because if
23:55
Speaker 5: you get up early in the mornth you only have to
23:56
Speaker 5: take off three Fridays, that's right, or only two really,
23:58
Speaker 5: because I think one is the four fourth of July.
24:01
Speaker 6: Yeah, good point. Well, and we're having a damn summer.
24:04
Speaker 6: It's gonna be microwave as it always is. But hopefully
24:06
Speaker 6: we'll have good weather for Memorial Day and then before
24:09
Speaker 6: you know it, Summerfest will be here. And the second
24:11
Speaker 6: weekend of Summerfest coincides with a Cubs visit to American Family.
24:14
Speaker 2: Oh what a weekend. What a weekend that's gonna I'm talking.
24:18
Speaker 6: They're all night games too, but I mean, I didn't
24:21
Speaker 6: even I think that's Friday Saturday night games and the Sunday,
24:23
Speaker 6: the Sunday one.
24:24
Speaker 3: The Brewers play two more day games at home against
24:27
Speaker 3: the Cubs than they do at Wrigley. They play zero
24:30
Speaker 3: day games this year at Wrigley Field. I'm assuming the
24:32
Speaker 3: Cubs are not getting away. They must be home. This
24:35
Speaker 3: is that why we got that game last night. Cubs
24:37
Speaker 3: are home. Okay, they're hosting Houston this Friday. Man, I
24:40
Speaker 3: don't know if it's gonna help them. The trouble they're
24:42
Speaker 3: in right now.
24:42
Speaker 5: I mean that they can't get out of their own way,
24:45
Speaker 5: and their pitching.
24:46
Speaker 2: Staff is is like decimating.
24:47
Speaker 5: And the dude left the game last night too, So
24:51
Speaker 5: are you missing what is that gonna be?
24:52
Speaker 2: Three or four out of your five starters now?
24:55
Speaker 3: I guess from yeah, yeah, four from the beginning of
24:58
Speaker 3: the year, I believe.
24:59
Speaker 2: And he's probably the big lost armin right. The kid
25:01
Speaker 2: is unbelievable.
25:02
Speaker 1: He's supposed to be a big part of their puzzle.
25:04
Speaker 1: Is very good obviously. So yeah, and you got Justin
25:06
Speaker 1: Steele has been out for like I.
25:09
Speaker 3: Was gonna say, a better part of two years now.
25:11
Speaker 3: They think that he's gonna start being able to throw
25:14
Speaker 3: at some point and then get himself back. I saw
25:16
Speaker 3: some cup report that he was in the building in
25:19
Speaker 3: the locker room. But more than anything, they neither guy
25:21
Speaker 3: that they just signed for one hundred and fifteen million
25:23
Speaker 3: dollars to make the roofs he plays out in the
25:25
Speaker 3: center field.
25:25
Speaker 2: That's a beautiful, beautiful part of this weekend and Lance
25:27
Speaker 2: Bregmant exactly hasn't been.
25:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I've been really really enjoying Alex Bregman's Welcome
25:33
Speaker 3: to the Rivalry. Take that, Take that Bregmant one for
25:37
Speaker 3: twelve with four k's filling the whole of Kyle Talkers
25:42
Speaker 3: phenomenally well, hap not taking the bat off his shoulder.
25:45
Speaker 2: I love that Brewer Killer for years.
25:49
Speaker 1: But you know what, my eyes are dry. I shed
25:51
Speaker 1: for their problem because listen, they're still a good team.
25:54
Speaker 1: They're gonna get hot again. I'm not worried about all
25:56
Speaker 1: their problems, all right, I'm actually excited about.
25:59
Speaker 2: Them, all right.
25:59
Speaker 6: So, well, if you've been at this a long time,
26:01
Speaker 6: and one of the things that you love about this job,
26:03
Speaker 6: being in our job is you get to meet cool
26:05
Speaker 6: people and listeners, right yeah. And so I met a
26:08
Speaker 6: gentleman Gary from Franklin a couple of years ago at
26:11
Speaker 6: a local establishment with a buddy of mine, and then
26:13
Speaker 6: he reached out to me this week, and he was
26:16
Speaker 6: cleaning out his house and he found something that his father,
26:19
Speaker 6: a scrap book of newspaper clippings that his father had.
26:21
Speaker 2: These are clippings from nineteen thirty seven.
26:23
Speaker 6: Look at that scrap book of base Stories box scores.
26:29
Speaker 2: From nineties. He's like, I thought you might like to
26:31
Speaker 2: see this.
26:31
Speaker 6: I'm like, yeah, absolutely, there's some bylines in here by
26:35
Speaker 6: Grantlin Rice, one of the legendary legendary sports writers, Grantlin Rice.
26:41
Speaker 6: There's then also these are like from Milwaukee Journal from
26:43
Speaker 6: the nineteen thirties.

32:49
Speaker 6: There was a midnight and there was a two am
32:52
Speaker 6: fire and then yeah, the Illinois people would come over

33:04
Speaker 5: When when I was eighteen in Iowa, the drinking age
33:07
Speaker 5: was nineteen in Iowa, but it was eighteen in Wisconsin.
33:09
Speaker 5: So on Friday night that area, all the Illinois kids
33:12

33:15
Speaker 5: like Keeler, Dickeyville, and Cuba City. He'd hit the hometown
33:19
Speaker 5: bars and flashed that eighteen year old ideas I d
33:21
Speaker 5: so you could drink.
33:23

33:40
Speaker 3: some short kind of stint on the on the night
33:41
Speaker 3: it was like a year.
33:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was a transitional thing.
33:44
Speaker 5: I remember somebody telling me you could get arrested for
33:47
Speaker 5: bootlegging if they really wanted to get you, because people
33:50
Speaker 5: would come into Illino. Illinois had the cheapest beer in
33:54
Speaker 5: those days, and they didn't have the camel Iowa. It's
33:56
Speaker 5: five cents of can if you drink, if you so
33:59
Speaker 5: everybody from Wisconsin and Iowa would go into Illinois to
34:02
Speaker 5: get the cheap beer prices. But they said if they
34:04
Speaker 5: catch you going back across the river with eight cases
34:06
Speaker 5: of beer, you could get busted for bootlegged.
34:08
Speaker 2: Interstate dot com reco act.

37:15
Speaker 6: it one and done. He's going off into the sunset
37:18
Speaker 6: a farewell tour. And we were saying, no matter how
37:20
Speaker 6: it ends, this is the way to do it, rather
37:22
Speaker 6: than he got him into the playoffs and threw a
37:24
Speaker 6: pick six and was they got smoked. Yeah, this is like, okay,
37:27
Speaker 6: whatever happens, we know it's gonna be over.
37:29
Speaker 5: It's very unlike him, I think, to do this because
37:31
Speaker 5: he's always let everybody hanging.
37:32
Speaker 2: But I'm glad he's doing it this way.
37:34
Speaker 5: And You're right, even if that happens, nobody remembers the
37:36
Speaker 5: bad stuff.
37:37
Speaker 2: Look at Marinos last game. I mean it was an embarrassment.
37:39
Speaker 2: Drew Brees Marino.
37:41
Speaker 6: Yeah, so this is the way to do it. Willie Mays,
37:43
Speaker 6: like Jordan with the Wizards, No one remembers that. Remember
37:46
Speaker 6: him at his you know they won't remember the bad
37:49

Speaker 6: Donovan Jorgenson, Heating and cooling.
38:17
Speaker 2: Who's not? PCA not not not at all, not at all,

38:31
Speaker 6: honor of the Cubs puking away a series against the Brewers.
38:35
Speaker 3: Man, I had a one time on a talking about
38:37
Speaker 3: fantasy punishments.
38:38
Speaker 2: Yesterday.
38:38
Speaker 3: I had a fantasy punishment where I had to drink
38:40
Speaker 3: four shots of war through a straw. I've never thought,
38:44
Speaker 3: I've never thought about just acting accepting an l worse.
38:48
Speaker 2: Than that brutal. It was one of the one of
38:50
Speaker 2: the worst days of my life.

39:17
Speaker 3: three run shot, and his on base streak has now
39:21
Speaker 3: reached nineteen consecutive games. For a dude that coming into

Speaker 3: the season we were wondering, there's no way he's able
39:28
Speaker 3: to replicate any bit of this spring training heat that
39:31
Speaker 3: he has right right quickly. He has put himself into
39:34
Speaker 3: the spot where you can't take him out of the lineup.
39:36
Speaker 3: Even when Andrew Vaughn comes back, and he's been back
39:40
Speaker 3: now for a week and a half, Vaughn's find himself
39:42
Speaker 3: on the bench a lot because you can't take nine
