  Speaker 3: what you just heard. I just got paid for that.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: That's what I had to explain to her. And she
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: was like, wow, yeah, yeah, yeah. She pretty much did
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: say that, how do I get a job like I

  Speaker 3: is something we do every Friday at eight o'clock we
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: run through your eight top stories of the day. So
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: let's get cracking and we will begin with the Mariners,
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: who we thought, maybe, maybe maybe Wednesday night game was
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: the spark that they needed to finally start playing the
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: caliber of baseball we believe as a community they are
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: capable of playing. And instead they rolled out maybe their
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: worst game of the entire season yesterday, getting trounced by
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: the Detroit Tigers eleven to nothing. It was three to
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: nothing within the first three batters of the game and
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: by the end of the game Victor Roblaze was pitching.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: That tells you how bad it went yesterday afternoon at
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: tea Mobile and you could hear it in our broadcasters' voices. YEP.
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: One of the most deflating losses of the year for
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: the Mariners. They get absolutely boat raised eleven to nothing.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: They are held without an extra base, had need a
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: position player to finish it off. It was a bad
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: way to finish off this series. The Tigers win it,
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: and they win two games and lopsided shutout fashion.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Aaron Goldsmith again, I think, great job, great call.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: Greatful he said exactly how I felt.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Maybe he gets in trouble for it. I don't know better.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: I've heard that they get criticized and called into the
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: office when they spell it out so negatively.
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: Well do the players get criticized when they get shut out?
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: Eleven nothing by the front office?
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: Asking for a friend?
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: But I love it. I think the broadcasters job is
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: to narrate the season, and when it's been this disappointing,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: I like hearing that Aaron goldsmiths bothered by it, Yes,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: hurt by it. So nice job Aaron on the final call.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: And I did think that that summed it up. I mean,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: you've got Victor Roblaze on the mound. I mean you
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: could just whenever they showed the home played Ashley, there
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: were you know, like two fans left in the stands.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: People were vacating by I think the fourth inning. I mean,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: and the reason is that we've had so many of
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: these moments. The reason there's so many expectations and then
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: we've had so many of this moments Like that's it, right, right, please,
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: that's the moment that's going to get them into gear.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: And lately they can't even put together back to back
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: good games, and I get the frustration, and people are
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: now just openly showing it by leaving in the fourth
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: inning of baseball games.
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: Now, well, and I think earlier we had a conversation.
• 3:56
  Speaker 6: Like I said, I'm not giving up on this team,
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: but I think I figured out what I'm giving up on.
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: I'm giving up on any hope that any game is
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: sparking anything for the next game. I'm just taking it. Okay,
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: that was a win. Great, let's see what happens tomorrow. Yeah,
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: I gotta get off this roller coaster I've put myself on.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we got a flush. Any idea that they're gonna
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: create momentum because they've just been so god awful at it.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: They've been burst at creating momentum than they have at
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: scoring runs this season. So before franbervald has had a
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: chance to being a single Mariner hitter, they were down
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: three to nothing and they just cruise to an eleven
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: nothing victory. So Seattle blows an opportunity to gain a
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: half game in the Al West. The fifty six and sixty.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Mariners sit three games back, still forty six games to play,
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: And I'm not trying to provide some silver lining for
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: you out there. I'm not. I'm just really presenting the facts.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Because no one's run away with anything in the American
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: League West, because no one's run away with anything in
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: the American League Wildcard. You really are just ten stretch
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: of ten games of really good baseball. Doesn't even have
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: to be perfect baseball. I'm not even talking about a
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: ten game winning streak. I'm talking about eight out of ten.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: Can you do that? Eight out of ten? And you
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: were probably at the end of that ten game stretch
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: either going to be tied for first place and potentially
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: in first place, and then you've got the rest of
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: the season. However, many games are remaining after that ten
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: twenty thirty games remaining to settle it, so you can
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: at least get even with one good stretch of baseball.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: But we have not received one of those all year long.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: The Colorado Rockies have gotten a ten game stretch of
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: playing above their abilities, and yet the Mariners have not
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: done that all season long, and so very frustrating. I
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: get it, I understand it, and yet there is still
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: hope because of how many other teams in the American
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: League have cooperated in keeping the Mariners in this race.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: That leads us to Mariners Weekend. For many, the Mariner's
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: woes will get lost in the shuffle of a massive
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: fiftieth birthday party the organization is throwing this weekend. For others,
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: it clearly will not, but T Mobile is going to
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: be packed for a second Jimothy Knight tonight that includes
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: an old timers home run Derby.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: I went into alf for Khalia.
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: I'll only call him Big Al and I hit dingers.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: It still works, it does, and it's pretty much just
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: little Bucky Jacobson. That's h Yeah, it is.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: Exactly That's what I thought of Big Hell. He hits stingers.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Although I guess Bucky was tiny uh when he was
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: Big Awl's age. He turned out to be Big Bucky,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: but he was you know, it's probably little Owl now.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Wouldn't be disappointing if you saw Big Al at the bar,
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: you know, now at age twenty five, and he's still
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: only five foot four inches tall and he doesn't hit
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: dingers anymore.
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and he got really skinny, but they still call
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: him big al. It's like, we have a really fat guy,
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: call him tiny.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: You have to, I think you have to. So yes,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: the home run derby tonight. It features our own Ryan Healy.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: We can't say that about Bucky anymore. The legendary e
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: Ziero and of course our friend Bucky Jacobson will be
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: performing tonight, and then tomorrow the Mariners will announce the
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: fifty greatest players in franchise history, having assembled the largest
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: majority or a large majority of them, to tip their
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: caps before a Seattle crowd again tonight. And I'm sure, Ashley,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: even though I think it's a terrific idea to celebrate
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: the fifty years, you had to do it at some point.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Even though a lot of Mariner fans are frustrated with
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: all of this, there's nothing wrong with the idea of
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: having done this, and I'm sure they're going to do
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: it in first class fashion tomorrow night. But something tells
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: me that like five active Mariners are gonna get to
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: end up getting pissed off that they're not on the list,
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: and it ruins any chance we have Well.
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: Gosh, I really hope I have that fear, and I
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: do think it's funny because Obviously people will be like,
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: why are the Mariners doing this? We need to focus
• 8:08
  Speaker 6: on this season. Well, they plan this, They didn't playing
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: this last week. This has been you know, in the
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: making for a long long time years and they had
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: no idea that the Mariners were going.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: To disappoint us like they did yesterday.
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: So you know, we just got to just enjoy it
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: for what it is.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: Just the opposite. When they were putting together the plan
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: for this, they were just sure. They were summarizing the
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: details and convincing John to pay for airfare for families
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: and of all fifty players to come in town and
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: enjoy the weekend. I mean, there thought this year was, man,
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: it's going to coincide with us being in a pennant
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: race and all's good, and we're five games up in
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: the divid I know they felt that way. And instead,
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I mean, you're as You've got a fan base as
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: frustrated with the active team as any time during my
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: eleven years in Seattle, and now you're going to try to,
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: you know, distract them with a big celebration, and I
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: think you're going to do it successfully. Hell, I just
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: watched Jim Aty sell out the stadium on a Wednesday
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: night for a team O on four games under five hundred.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: I have a feeling they might do it again tonight.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: And yes, this fan base does love it's nostalgia, and
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: so despite the fact that you never won a championship
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: and never been to a World Series. I would imagine
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: those that are going to be in attendance for Friday
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: night and Saturday night are going to have a ball.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: I really do. And I think that they'll end up
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: doing this in first class fashion.
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they will, and they always do.
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: And it's and everybody that goes, even if they're going
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: in thinking like, oh why are they doing this, They're
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: going to have the best time.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: It's going to be wonderful.
• 9:41
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: Of course, there is a percentage of that fan base
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: that wants nothing to do with it, which maybe we'll
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: talk about a little bit later on in the show.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: And oh yeah, the best team in the American League
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: is here for the weekend. The Tampa Bay Rays are
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: going to throw their ace Drew rass Mussin at the
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Mariners tonight. We'll will counter with a pretty good one
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: of our own. Logan Gilbert will at the call tonight.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: First pitch is at six forty five ish. I don't
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: know what kind of ceremonies they'll have. It might be
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: a delayed to that. And it is going to be
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: a National game tonight, okay as well, So apparently the
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: home run derby afterwards is going to be televised. But
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: I don't think if like me, if you have cable,
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: I don't think you get it. I think you have
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: to have bought the Mariners streaming thing in order to
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: get Yeah, but that might not be accurate. Don't hold
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: me to it. But I think that's what I heard
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: in the broadcast earlier in this week. So if I'm
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: if I'm wrong about that, I apologize. I would just say,
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: go find out the truth for yourself. It's kind of
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: like life. Don't let me tell you the meaning of life.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: Go find out the truth for yourself.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: I like that, all right.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Item number three. The NFL preseason is underway and Cardinals
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: rookie Carson Beck put on a show last night. Carson
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: and the Cartsman tied the five touchdown.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Carson Beck looks like he is just another day in
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: the office out here.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you go ahead. Fifteen for nineteen and eighty eight
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: passing yards for back last night. His very first drive
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: is a pro ninety six yard touchdown drive. He looked terrific.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's really no getting around it. But the
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: big story, the headline, was that professional football was on
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: our televisions last night at the Pro Football Hall of
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: Fame game in the Shadow of Canton, and so we
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: are underway. Carolina won by a final score of thirty
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: three to thirty and a game actually that they're calling
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: the greatest Hall of Fame game of all time.
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: Which really is saying something, isn't it. No, it's okay, No,
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: that's not okay okay.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: And then this weekend Hall of Fame weekend, and I
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: love Hall of Fame weekend. I'm more of a baseball
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: fans you all know, than football, even though I love
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: f well slightly more of a baseball fan. But I
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: do love the NFL Hall of Fame weekend over Major
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: League Baseball's Hall of Fame weekend. It's just something about
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: It's just the speeches are just more impassioned. There's something
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: about them. I just love them. There's this sliding doors
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: element to this, where every single speech you see somebody
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: who is one of the greatest football players you've ever seen.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: And they will tell you, and you will believe it
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: once you hear their story and their timeline, that there
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: was a moment where I might not have been anything
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: if not for this moment or this person that guided
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: me in the right direction. It's it's incredible. I love it.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: And so we're going to see a lot of great
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: speeches from a lot of a lot of like no
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: brainer Hall of famers, Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald, Luke Keigley,
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: Adam Bennettieri even though he's a kicker, I believe he's
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: a no brainer Hall of Famer. And then Roger Craig,
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: long overdue that Roger Craig's getting enshrined into Canton this week,
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: and as well, even though I hate as you hate
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Ashley that not only is Mike Holger not in the
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Hall of Fame, that he's had to watch Sterling Sharp
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: get in one of his teat his players last year,
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: and now another one of his players, Roger Craig, get
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: in on the vote that he would have gotten in
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: on and and so it still sucks for all of us,
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: But I do really like the Hall of Fame, and uh,
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: and it should be quite an event because it's obviously
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: a very difficult place to get into, right, Drew Brees,
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: I can't get through the gate.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: The gate is narrow.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: There was no longer. What do you want me to do?
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Just back up, I'm stuck. Yeah, I didn't play that
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: exactly where I wanted to play it. I forgot I
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: had to throw to that. But anyway, Hall of Fame
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Week and Ashley and and I like it. I mean,
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: I'm I'm angry about coach, but I like it.
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I like the whole thing too.
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: I just I do wish that they'd separate the coaches
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: and do coaches and gms in their own category. But
• 14:11
  Speaker 6: I don't think that coaches should be going up against players.
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: It just I mean, even the idea that Bill Belichick
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: didn't make it in on his first ballot is weird, right,
• 14:19
  Speaker 6: So it's clearly the way they're doing it isn't You're
• 14:23
  Speaker 6: not putting the absolute best people in there.
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and part of it is the limitations that they
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: set for themselves, but that's also part of the battle
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: to get in. But man, they put people through it.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, this is it really does bother a lot
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: of Drew Pearson talked about it openly how depressed he
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: was every year of being told he wasn't Hall of
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Fame worthy and eventually he got in. So, yeah, there's
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: got to be a better system. I realize it's a
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: hard job trying to come up with that system, Mike
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: Sando will tell you, But it does seem like it's
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: when Mike Holmgren's not in there, when Bill Belichick's not
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: in there, and when you don't have a single coach,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: when those two guys are eligible and you don't have
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: a single coach getting into the Hall of Fame this weekend, Yeah,
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: there's something wrong with the rules. Of course, the Hall
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: of Fame game does not technically count as a preseason game.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: The official preseason schedule is going to begin Thursday, August thirteenth,
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: and then the world champion Seahawks will be opening with
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys at home next Saturday. In the meantime,
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: we have this I'm holding out my hands, oh, to
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: show you.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: All that you have created in front of you.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: Yes, I'm pointing out to you the beautiful field and
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: the fans that are rolling in for training camp, and
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: the setting that we have. Can you tell that can
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: you tell that from my voice that I'm holding out
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: my arms to display all of this wonderfulness to you?
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: I can.
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: It sounds joyous and like your heart and your eyes
• 15:57
  Speaker 6: are full of wonder and warm and warmth.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: Is warmth in there, because I was really shooting for warmth.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: I got warmth.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: Good. Seahawks training camp continues. It's gonna be a lovely
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: friday out here. Weather's cooperating. We've got the haze that's
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: blown out of town for the most part, so that's good.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: Tory Horton stopped by our set here earlier this morning
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: and gave me an update on his health.
• 16:22
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, I'm feeling great.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: Body's feeling good.
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: Everything is feeling you know, in line and tack. So
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: I feel like the trans great plan and you know,
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: just been following that plan. So I feel great out
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: there on the field and you know, just a lot
• 16:35
  Speaker 7: of hard work. So yeah, I'm feeling good, ready to go.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Feeling good and ready to go. And yeah, they're not
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: gonna make him practice every single day of camp. They're
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: gonna they're gonna slow play that a little bit. They
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: don't need to fast play it right now. But it
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: sounds like Tory's right on track to be a major
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: contributor this upcoming year. Also, we saw yesterday Nick emon
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: War he was off his scooter and off his crutch.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: Hopefully that's a great indication that he's ahead of schedule
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: and we'll be ready for opening Day. We're going to
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: ask Greg Bell about that coming up at eight point
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: thirty here this morning. Husky's camp is also underway. It
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: opened just yesterday. At least Woodward was on with us,
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: the new voice of the Huskies. She joined us on
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: yesterday's program. We talked about the ultimate goal for this team,
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: which is cracking the college football playoff for the first
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: time in the Jedfish era, and I wondered aloud to
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: at least is that something that's in the cards.
• 17:32
  Speaker 8: I think we saw how good they can be last
• 17:35
  Speaker 8: year in glimpses, and it does need to be more
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: consistent against the top twenty five teams. That's the bottom line.
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: I think when you are building a team, one of
• 17:44
  Speaker 8: the most important areas to me, it's your offensive and
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: defensive line, and it's your quarterback. Right those are the
• 17:51
  Speaker 8: spots that you have to have dudes, and I think
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: they do have dudes. I think demand Williams if he
• 17:56
  Speaker 8: continues at his rate of improvement. He's twenty years old. People,
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: twenty he can't even legally buy a beer, and he
• 18:04
  Speaker 8: is a third year quarterback with starting experience, Like that's
• 18:07
  Speaker 8: crazy what has been heaped upon his shoulders and the
• 18:10
  Speaker 8: responsibility and the pressure.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: And all of that.
• 18:13
  Speaker 8: I love their offensive line. They got some youngsters, but
• 18:15
  Speaker 8: they're badasses now. They got to find a way to
• 18:19
  Speaker 8: have skill guys replace Jonah Coleman and Denzel Boston. And
• 18:22
  Speaker 8: Denzel Boston's a tough one. Jetfish year three, Ryan Walter's
• 18:26
  Speaker 8: year two.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: What a combo. Let's go.
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: It's all like aligning for you, dub this year.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: That's the hope.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: Jetfish is beginning his third season at the Helm as
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: quarterback returns barely, and folks in the know are raving
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: about this incoming recruiting class. Right now, the goal is
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: certainly the college football Playoff in twenty twenty six, but
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: we need to see a much better version than what
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: we've seen. You do have to be good enough to
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: avoid that snag against teams you shouldn't lose to, and
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: then you have to be good enough to pull off
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: an upset against teams that Vegas says you shouldn't beat.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: That's how that's how good you've got to be to
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: get into the college football playoff. We have not seen
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: that from a Washington Huskies team in the two short
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: years with Jed Fish, but perhaps we are ready for that.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Breakthrough season begins with the Apple Cup Sunday. That's right, Sunday, yes, right,
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: September sixth. That Husky Stadium. Coog's camp also launched yesterday
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: under brand new, first year thirty five year old head
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: coach Kirby Moore as well. Finally, Little League World Series
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: Snowhomish is playing today at noon. They need a win
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: to keep playing, but they'll have to defeat a team
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: that thumped them fourteen to nothing to start their tournament.
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's all they needed. Everybody knows Ashley, the
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: modern day athlete, whether they're twelve or forty two, needs
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: a chip on their shoulder, and that's all that The
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: ladies from Snowhomish needed to kick some Florida ass today.
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: That's right, they should have a chip on their shoulder
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: because Florida, I mean snow much is better than they
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: showed up in that game one and.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: They're about ready to show them today. Let's go.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: That's right, they got this, That's right. Vengeance will be ours.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: Ah.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Somehow Team Florida lost to Team North Caro. How good
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: is North Carolina's team? For goodness sake?
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: This is the thing I mean, and I do I
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: do get like in some of these cases. Even the
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: Snowmish girl said, there was a lot of nerves in
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: that first game. You're in it on a bigger stage
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: than you've ever been in your twelve so you know, maybe, yeah,
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: maybe Florida relaxed a little bit.
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: From North Carolina was.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: Like, I don't I'm not going to use it as
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: an excuse from CJ. Stroud, but I think I will
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: use it as an excuse for Maddie.
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: Locke, Okay, And I think that's probably an appropriate way
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: to dish it out.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: With a win today, snow Homish will find if they're
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: gonna face North Carolina in the semifinals, but they're gonna
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: have to beat a team that defeated them fourteen to
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: nothing just a few short days ago. Little League World
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: Series continues on the softball End today at noon four.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Team Snowhomish all right coming out next Greg Bell in
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: an odd time. We never have them on at eight thirty,
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: but we will today. Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.

• 21:47
  Speaker 3: Oh Friday with Greg bell Man. We're moving him all
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: over the chessboard here these days. It was my fault
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: earlier this week. Greg, it was Tory Horton's fault today,
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: So take it up with him. Yeah yeah, that Tory
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: Horton tell.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: Him to wait.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Such a jerk, right, that Tory Horton. Yeah, so selfish.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's really he is actually a really nice guy.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Family guy. Family.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: Here's a great interview.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: I didn't realize he'd be as talkative.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: As he was, No, very much.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: So yeah, all right, Greg Bell is with us. Our
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Seahawks inside are joining us here on Chuck in the Morning. Sorry,
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: so we don't have as much time today, as we
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: typically do, I'm gonna dive in. It might be the
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: only topic that we get to, and that is Nick
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: Eamon Worry strolling around Seahawks facility. As you wrote yesterday
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: on your X timeline, what did we learn about Nick
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: and his injury yesterday?
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Well, stories at the News dot com with the video
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: as well. Everyone see our fans got an alarm seeing
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: hard knocks the other night and hit him on a
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: scooter and wearing a walking boot on him his right
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: ankle that got arthur scopic surgery last month.
• 23:03
  Speaker 9: But that was filmed at the very beginning of camp,
• 23:07
  Speaker 9: right when they were reporting till July twenty fifth ish
• 23:11
  Speaker 9: or so two weeks now, and with a recovery that
• 23:15
  Speaker 9: can go four to six weeks, you're talking potentially half
• 23:19
  Speaker 9: of his recovery time.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: So that wasn't a present day indicator of what he
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: looked like. Hey, we've seen him walking around signing autographs
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: after practice with a soft low right ankle brace on
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: kind of where maybe at basketball yesterday didn't have anything
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: and he just strolled on out there and he was
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: wearing I thought he's wearning crocs. They had these white
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: shoes that had holes in him and I asked him
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: about crocs. He goes, well, they're called canes, and apparently
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: I looked him up, but he was on him. He
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: said years ago before they became Big Guy in Austin,
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Texas developed them. There were supposed to be after training
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: shoes that help you recover from training. But the point
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: was he was walking around with anything on his ankle
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: and looking very fluid strollingly. But you can see it
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: on thenews Tribune dot com. The video of it much
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: different than what Tuesday night's episode portrayed. So he looks
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: toward trending in the positive direction, and that's what Mike
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: McDonald had said at the start of the week. His
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: recovery is I'm positive. There's no timeline because he doesn't
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: want to put one on him, so cousin forced him
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: to come back before he should. The expectation is he's
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: still going to play in the opener. We've been saying
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: that since the start. It's what I've been told from
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: the start, and now there are physical signs and appearances
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: that suggest that might happen.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Well. Are there some people that had a problem with
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: his footwear? Is there a story there that goes along
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: with this.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: No problem. I was peculiar that he was wearing It
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: looked like crocs somebody who had a repaired ankle. I
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: thought it was peculiar, so I asked him. I looked.
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: There was someone on Twitter who got mad about it, like,
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: why is he wearing crops at practice?
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: That's what it was.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, yeah, that's a very low common denominate. Yes
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: he was watching practice, and they were only walking through anyway,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: but yes, he was just watching. I just asked him
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: as a curiosity because I thought it was interesting that
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: the guy coming off of an ankle injury'd be wearing crocs.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: And he said, oh, he's actually kine. Then I looked
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: up what Caine's were in there, these performance after training
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: shoes that are supposed to aid in recovery. So okay,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: there you go.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: Okay, now we got we got all the details, and
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: we only pissed off one angry, irrational fan. That's it.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Greg Bell is with us or computer. Greg Bell is
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: with us here this morning on Sports Radio ninety three
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: point three kJ R f M, thanks to emeral Queen Casino.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: All right, well, before we head into the weekend, can't
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: we get an update then? On Spoon and the negotiation.
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: Did we get anywhere this week?
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: They're working on it. I mean the dental awarded thirty
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: one point one million change to gold move the goldpost
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: back a little more for the Seahawks. And again it
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: appears that the agent for both they have the same agent,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: Christian Gonzales with the Patriots and Witherspoon Reggie Johnson and
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: the CAA a sports down in Los Angeles, and it
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: appears that it's very possible and plausible and should be.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: That's our job to play those two off each other
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: to try to leverage higher deals for each So this
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: has become a little more to it than the Seahawks
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: and John Schneider envision when they embark on this. But
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: the intention is that he will be the highest paid
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: cornerback in the NFL, which means more than thirty one
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: point one a year, and that it will be done
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: before they are done with training camp. And they're just
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: a little more extenuating circumstances than in the past.
• 26:55
  Speaker 7: But no, it.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: The one again that bears repeating no hold ins, no holdouts.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Witherspoon's participating in everything football wise, nothing has changed, and
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: now it's a process of just getting it done.
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: How long is Robbie Hoot's going to be out? What's
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: going on here?
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: We don't know that. He said we'll have more. McDonald
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: said on the start of the week we'd had more
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: for sooner than later. Loose was walking around yesterday, but
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: he's coming off the neck issue that sidelined him at
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: the end of last season. We've been down this road
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: before with next in this team and Cam Chancellor and
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Chris Carson, and they'll mess around with that, especially in
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: football players. I'd have to collide all the time. So
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: we'll see. We don't know anything fititive, but it does
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: sound ominous. They signed a fullback yesterday, a free agent
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: fullback who actually played for Thomas Hammock, the new running
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: backs coach at Northern Illinois, which is why he's here.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: And Brady Russell's getting a long, long run at a
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: lot jobs right now because it's out Russels are the
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: only true foolback they have on the roster until the
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: one they signed yesterday.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: All right, well, what else? What else we need to
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: know before we head into the weekend? Are the Seahawks?
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: Are they looking at the Mariners and thinking to themselves,
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: so man we really got to embrace this Jimothy thing.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: I mean anything like that going on here.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: No, Well, I thought I could get away with not
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: listening or hearing the word Jimothy for this segment.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: Hey, you made a big deal out of it. I
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: had people at Jalila Brazzar Casino. We're laughing about your
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: segment and we're telling me all about it yesterday. So, uh, yeah,
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: you stirred this hornet's nest for yourself here, missus.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Well, no, I didn't stir They stirred the hornets nest,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: losing nineteen nothing combined the last two games. While we'orrying
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: about Jimothy Knights. It's just exits on the wrong coelaborate
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: it just to me underscores they're a business that's succeeding.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: They're putting forty thousand people in the stance while failing
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: as a baseball operation. But what they need to be
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: doing they're not doing, and they're doing everything else, and
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: there's no what is the motivation for the owners to
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: spend and improve the team when they're successful at a
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: business proposition? They get forty two thousand people to watch
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: the form Raccoon on a Wednesday night, in August to
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: losing teams. It's succeeding. It's working. So no, if the
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Seahawks are smart, they're not looking at anything the Seahawks
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: are doing right now before the manor is doing right
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: now because it's not working all right, So.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: I'm not I'm going to write that down, not adopting
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: Jim aty pr tactics, got it all right? Well, well,
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: I appreciate you man. Thanks.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: There's a fan fest of ore at the stadium for
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: fans who want to go. It's five o'clock. It's just
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: just another practice, but now it's a looming field. More
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: fans can go.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, sounds good. We'll see out here at
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: ten o'clock.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Then you sure will. Thank you.

  Speaker 3: on the Mariners their promotions and yes, our s up
• 30:07

• 30:11
  Speaker 3: I know they're honoring the fifty greatest Mariners of all time,
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: and and good for them, Good for them. I think
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: that it's gonna be a terrific ceremony, and so I
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: think they're gonna pull it off, and it's gonna be
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: very impressive on people. They're there that are attending, are
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: gonna have some fun with it. That said, we're gonna
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: have a little bit of fun with it as well.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: Uh So I asked earlier, Ashley, and I asked earlier,
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: who's the worst Mariner of all time? Who makes the
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: list of the worst Mariner of all time? I don't
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: think they're gonna have a ceremony for him, I'll tell
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: you that much. But who is your worst Mariner of
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: all time? Four nine four five one. You could also

• 30:59
  Speaker 3: Sports Radio ninety three point three kh A r f M.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: That was the suggestion in a song.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: And he decided to sing it.
• 31:11
  Speaker 10: Oh, I appreciated it, Bobby ya ya lay Venders.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, We're not gonna list all fifty Mariners that would
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: be unkind no, you know, on the averge of naming
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: the fifty greatest Mariners of all time. But we can
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: list are the worst, can we not?
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: I think so?
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let's name the worst Mariner of all time. Whatever
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: your credentials are for that, whatever your process is, let's
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: hear from you the worst Mariner of all time here
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: on this fifty year anniversary. Since we're a little bit
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: salty about the team right now anyway, So what kind
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: of feedback did we give? We get a lot of
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: feedback on this.
• 31:56
  Speaker 6: Ah, we're getting a lot of suggestions for the worst mirrors,
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: and there are I mean, I said Sean Figgins earlier.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: We've got a lot of Sean Figgins support.
• 32:04
  Speaker 6: We've got a lot of Bobby Ayalla support, And by support,
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: I mean people who agree that they are the worst
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: Mariners of all time.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Well there at least I don't. Like I said, I'm
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: not gonna try to make this the fifty. But they're
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: on the fifty then yeah.
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: They're definitely on the fifty.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: See.
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: And I also like Milton Bradley. Someone brought up Milton Bradley.
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: He had a really tumultuous time here.
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: I would agree with that.
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: Eric Badard, Yeah, yeah, one.
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah. It doesn't necessarily have to be the worst player
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: to ever wear the uniform. It could be the person
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: that represented the Mariner a uniform of the worst, or
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: had the worst relationship with the fans, whatever the case
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: may be. And man, I mean I certainly wasn't hear
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: for the Eric Badard days. But ever since I came
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: to town, Man, I learned how much Seattle disliked, hated
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: Eric Badard, so I figured his name would come up.
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, it's up there a lot. Also recent one,
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: Jesse Winker. We just talked about him and his two fingers,
• 33:06
  Speaker 6: So Jesse Winker.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: People not loving him.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: Jesse Winker. Yeah, Man, I had high hopes for him.
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: I also, this is a true story because I had
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: seen him do a few interviews on MLB Network and
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: he came across very charismatic, and I, if you remember Ashley,
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: I'm like, not only is he going to be good,
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: You're gonna love this guy, like because because he came
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: off so funny, and and then not only was he bad,
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: apparently no one in the city liked him, Yes, and
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: certainly nobody on the team. And I even brought that
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: up to Scott's service at one point, like how I
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: went out on a limb and sort of told everybody
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: that not only are they going to think he's a
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: good player, but they're gonna like him. And Scott like
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: had my back on it. He said, he can be charismatic,
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: he can't lull you into that. But then overall, obviously
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: the winker wore down the organization and all of his
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: teammates at some point and then couldn't have been a
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: bigger disappointment. Fortunately, we got Gino Suarez out of that trade,
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: which was ya, you know, we got like one of
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: the favorite, yeah, one of the favorite Mariners of all time,
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: and he was supposed to be the throw in to
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: a trade that ended up being one of the least
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: favorite Mariners of all time.
• 34:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it was. It's interesting. And then all of the
• 34:30
  Speaker 6: Bobby Ayola suggestions. I remember when I was growing up
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: and Bobby Ayola would come in to the game. My
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: dad would go, oh, here comes Bobby ay Yi yai yalla.
• 34:42
  Speaker 6: It's like, yeah, I can't not think of a a
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: ai yalla.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: So we've got a saying with him. We've got now
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: a song that is recommended Bobby Ayala. I have a
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: feeling none of these people listen to our show, so
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna worry about their feelings. Yeah, I think
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: we're feelings getting hurt. But yeah, I didn't think that
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: we'd have to stoke this fire too much. I figured
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: it would start to burn on its own. Yeah.
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: I like this this callin or talk back home on.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: Here we Go.
• 35:13
  Speaker 11: There was a time when a pioneer square bar was
• 35:17
  Speaker 11: selling beer by the glass for Dave Valley's batting average
• 35:21
  Speaker 11: to attract people. You would go out of business if
• 35:25
  Speaker 11: you tried to do that with today's Mariners.
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's not wrong be a struggle, but the
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: batting averages are different now.
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: So just to clarify, because Dave might listen, just to
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: clarify what he's saying is that once upon a time, yes,
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: Dave Valley's batting average was so bad that we made
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: a joke about it city wide. And yet there are
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: numerous guys in the last couple of years who makes
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: Dave Valley's career look spectacular.
• 35:57
  Speaker 6: So not seeing Dave Valley is one of the worst Mariners.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: Right If at one point that was a city wide
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: joke We've had guys that have clearly been worse than
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: him since that time, and so that that was the statement, just.
• 36:11
  Speaker 6: To clarify, yes, yes, yes, from the two six Jared
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: kellnik all hype and a cry baby jerky ooh oh.
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: I hate hearing that. I know, I do hear I mean,
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: and I was a person that was part of that
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: hype machine, So I kind of contributed to that. I
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: think I don't know what went wrong with that young man.
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: He just couldn't get outside of his own head. Another
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: Scott Service story for you. He pulled me aside one time.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: He said, you would not believe because they have this
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: like machine in the that they use, simulator that they use,
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: and they can crank it up as much as you want,
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: and they can like crank it up to like maximum
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: capacity and make it as like almost impossible to hit,
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: Like better than any major league pitcher that has ever
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: pitched right. He would dominate that thing. Yeah, you can
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: think about that. And that's the type of talent when
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: he wasn't thinking about, oh my gosh, the fans are
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: expecting me to do this. The fans are put my
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: teammates say, if I can just get in a cage
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: and just whack a baseball. I'm as talented as anybody
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: around here, and yet when it got between the lines,
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: he just couldn't put it together. And not just for us.
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: I mean he actually had a few moments with us,
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: you know, but it just didn't come together. It actually
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: kind of pains me. That kind of hurt my heart
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: to hear him mention. But I get why someone would
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: mention it.
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I yeah, I was say, because I think
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: we all just wanted him to figure it out.
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: Bucky would like this one, Richie Sson, Bucky.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: Would really like it if you said Brett Boone, Oh yeah.
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: He'd really like that one.
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: But I think either one nobody has texted in Brett Boone.
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Brett Boon's gonna get honored tomorrow night.
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: And Richie Sexon I hear Mike, oh really, because he
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: apparently he was thrown out a first pitch in the
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: state of Washington and people were trying to put like
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: two and two together, like, oh, he wouldn't have come
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: up here just to throw a first pitch. He's up
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: here for another reason, right, So I don't know, I
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: don't know. I'm just telling you what I read on
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: the internet and it's always the gospel truth. So we'll see,
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: but Boone's definitely going to be in the top fifty.
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: That's a guarantee, all right. Coming out next we'll continue
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: with this and certainly we do want to talk about
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: this next forty eight hours of the Mariners organization, the celebration,
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: and weighed against how frustrated the city is with the
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: current Seattle Mariners roster. We'll talk about that next year
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: on Chuck in the Morning Sports Radio ninety three point
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: three KHARFM.
