- 0:45Speaker 4: last couple of years. I feel like they've been pretty good.
- 0:47Speaker 4: We always think of February as a dead period. I
- 0:49Speaker 4: don't feel like it's been that way the last few years.
- 0:50Speaker 2: No, it's morphing. And next year the super Bowl will

- 1:45Speaker 2: the dinas and uh yeah. My wife is like, wow,
- 1:48Speaker 2: I was going to get a pedicure here, but why
- 1:50Speaker 2: would I play pay us prices.
- 1:51Speaker 4: I'll get it in Mexico. In Mexico, Yes, correct, good move,
- 1:55Speaker 4: good move smart. And I'm the guy that I was
- 1:56Speaker 4: always asking the same thing when Lars like I'm thinking
- 1:59Speaker 4: of getting in my is this really worth that much
- 2:01Speaker 4: of money?
- 2:02Speaker 1: Like they do this, it is.
- 2:04Speaker 4: Totally worth once you get go to the middle of
- 2:07Speaker 4: the ball and get one of those hydro massages, remember those, Yeah,
- 2:10Speaker 4: and you're like, man, that thing looks cool.
- 2:12Speaker 1: It's like they're getting wet.
- 2:13Speaker 3: But they're not, you know, And this one is uh,
- 2:15Speaker 3: I've only I've only gone. I haven't had a pedicure
- 2:19Speaker 3: in quite some time, since I was in college. That
- 2:22Speaker 3: was like a mandatory one that we would all die, Okay,
- 2:26Speaker 3: but I'll be honest, I don't because I honestly just
- 2:28Speaker 3: feel so bad. I mean, these are some of the
- 2:30Speaker 3: most disgusting looking feet you're ever going to see. I'm
- 2:33Speaker 3: not gonna make any money selling pictures of these things.
- 2:35Speaker 3: So like that's the one where right now I feel
- 2:37Speaker 3: very very bad for whatever gets scrubbed off of this.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Right now, you can find anything and you can be
- 2:46Speaker 2: grossed out by stuff. And there's you remember the faces
- 2:49Speaker 2: of death videos. You guys probably too young for those
- 2:51Speaker 2: thousand Ways to die in Spike TV.
- 2:52Speaker 1: I was ye away, I didn't watch it.
- 2:55Speaker 2: You want the gnarliest thing I can think of that
- 2:57Speaker 2: would ruin people's breakfast is like Google up shat feet
- 3:02Speaker 2: O'Neill pictured, and he has got the gnarliest hammer toe.
- 3:08Speaker 2: Just it's here alien. It looks like it looks like
- 3:13Speaker 2: something got an alien versus predator Shak's feet Larry McCarron like,
- 3:17Speaker 2: And the thing is, I know there are some people
- 3:18Speaker 2: that are into that particular appendage to fetish people are
- 3:23Speaker 2: into that all kinds of things that we've talked about,
- 3:26Speaker 2: but Shak's feet is the gnarlist.
- 3:28Speaker 1: So you just think about it like could be worse.
- 3:30Speaker 1: You could could be worse.
- 3:32Speaker 4: But I was thinking too, like if you're going there
- 3:33Speaker 4: thinking about that, they might they've seen worse.
- 3:35Speaker 1: They've always always seen worse. Yeah, they don't even care.
- 3:38Speaker 1: They chose this life, they chose. Don't notice, they don't notice. Okay,
- 3:43Speaker 1: Yeah I like that.
- 3:44Speaker 4: I think so, yes, maybe they were maybe maybe circumstances
- 3:46Speaker 4: to push them into it, but it's part of it.
- 3:48Speaker 4: Like you, Okay, they deal with it all day, feet
- 3:51Speaker 4: all day, all day, no big deal. So you know
- 3:53Speaker 4: they're gonna take that pump a stone to your toes. Man,
- 3:55Speaker 4: They're gonna be This.
- 3:57Speaker 3: Also goes into like kind of when and Drew, We've
- 4:00Speaker 3: wondered this and bantered about it, and Arman's talked about this.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Now that he's he's a homeowner, obviously a condo owner.
- 4:05Speaker 3: There's gonna be people coming in to do some more.
- 4:06Speaker 3: But then you struggle to be talking to what do
- 4:09Speaker 3: you talk about?
- 4:10Speaker 1: That's my problem.
- 4:11Speaker 3: I struggle to with somebody in the eye and have
- 4:12Speaker 3: a genuine conversation while they have a stone just grating
- 4:17Speaker 3: like a cheese grater onto my heel.
- 4:19Speaker 1: Well, that's why I think you'll be able to talk
- 4:20Speaker 1: to your wife. Then have your wife point.
- 4:22Speaker 4: I think it's actually gonna be tougher for her because see,
- 4:24Speaker 4: I think you're in the unique position, Billy, to handle
- 4:26Speaker 4: it well, because I'm the type of guy that I
- 4:29Speaker 4: I can't handle silent sometimes and I need to have
- 4:31Speaker 4: the convo and it's just gonna be annoying for the guy,
- 4:33Speaker 4: you know, the plumber, the guy fixing your fridge, which
- 4:36Speaker 4: just wants to get to work.
- 4:38Speaker 1: But in this situation, Billy, I know you.
- 4:40Speaker 4: You're the type of guy that has multiple multiple podcasts,
- 4:44Speaker 4: interviews on Dan pant like everything cuted up, like you're
- 4:47Speaker 4: ready to watch Tough on your phone. You're ready to
- 4:49Speaker 4: watch it, like you know that's true. I can't embrace
- 4:51Speaker 4: the silence a little bit better than you. You're ready
- 4:53Speaker 4: to watch like Calgary Sports Radio. Listen to Calgary Sports
- 4:57Speaker 4: Radio and the I heart I know you. You've always got
- 4:59Speaker 4: things up ready to listen to. Here's your thing, though,
- 5:03Speaker 4: here's the thing. Billy is a sports nerd in the
- 5:05Speaker 4: present tense arman's watching the nineteen ninety three Eastern Conference Finals.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Yeah, in the in the now.
- 5:13Speaker 4: That's why I think our synergy works. Yeah, well, all right,
- 5:17Speaker 4: but there are a few things.
- 5:18Speaker 2: I evangelize for on these here airwaves and interwebs. And
- 5:21Speaker 2: I would say the Blackstone grill, having a bidet at
- 5:25Speaker 2: least one in the house, if not at every in
- 5:28Speaker 2: every bathroom.
- 5:29Speaker 4: That's a that's an increasingly popular turn and then easier
- 5:33Speaker 4: to install than you would think reasonably.
- 5:35Speaker 2: Semi regular pedicures for dudes, even though I am anti
- 5:38Speaker 2: sandal for dudes.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Sure you know, no one wants to see.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Those toes cover them up unless you're at the beach
- 5:42Speaker 2: and flip flops.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Famous take.
- 5:44Speaker 4: You didn't have the slides with the socks? Yeah you yeah,
- 5:49Speaker 4: I agree with you. Our former co worker Josh used
- 5:51Speaker 4: to slap thwap thwap. It's like, dude, come on, this
- 5:55Speaker 4: is a professional office.
- 5:56Speaker 2: We're trying to do a professional radio show here, and
- 5:58Speaker 2: what are you doing with bare feet?
- 5:59Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 6:00Speaker 3: Now, the stru and and the thing is, once I
- 6:02Speaker 3: learned the Croc life, where you can have that freedom
- 6:05Speaker 3: and covered and covered toes, what a liberating moment that
- 6:09Speaker 3: because it is It's like, listen, we're gonna be professional, however,
- 6:14Speaker 3: built for comfort and speed.
- 6:15Speaker 1: You you find.
- 6:17Speaker 3: The more and more that you try to clean up
- 6:20Speaker 3: and a little self care is what they're talking about.
- 6:22Speaker 1: They're talking about staying grounded.
- 6:24Speaker 3: I don't know, Maybe I clean up my toes and
- 6:25Speaker 3: I start going out every morning Mac Collins in it
- 6:28Speaker 3: and just start walking barefoot.
- 6:29Speaker 1: There you go, you could try that.
- 6:31Speaker 2: It doesn't sound like a lot of people walking around
- 6:33Speaker 2: casinos in Vegas. Later, apparently, apparently from one of our correspondence, you.
- 6:38Speaker 4: Know, I hate to do this because I love I
- 6:40Speaker 4: love I love Pat a lot of sports book, but uh,
- 6:44Speaker 4: old old guy took his now im at the kiosk.
- 6:47Speaker 1: You know, at the kiosk. This is like months ago,
- 6:49Speaker 1: prob the summer.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Now, he did have socks on, but he took his
- 6:52Speaker 4: shoes off, flit him out. It was more like the
- 6:54Speaker 4: loafers kind of to get in his uh you know,
- 6:57Speaker 4: his socked feet while making his selections. Understand, we all
- 7:00Speaker 4: get comfortable at home. Akape had a lot of sports book.
- 7:03Speaker 4: But keep your shoes on, man at the keys. Okay,
- 7:05Speaker 4: come on, and then we have to get into the
- 7:07Speaker 4: guys in the plane, which you'll probably encounters.
- 7:09Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, take their shoes loss on the plane
- 7:12Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Yeah, we got lock that up.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Lock it up. But I mean, bad boy, do you
- 7:18Speaker 1: guys just give us a Well, Billy's still doing the show.
- 7:22Speaker 1: Billy is not running from the ground.
- 7:23Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you that. You know, there's a couple
- 7:26Speaker 2: of things happening that I got going. And by the way,
- 7:27Speaker 2: it's Friday the thirteenth. This makes me think of Adobe Maxwell,
- 7:32Speaker 2: mister lucky for a long time, and uh you know,
- 7:35Speaker 2: this is his favorite day of the year, like Friday
- 7:36Speaker 2: the thirteenth, because he thinks that everybody else you know,
- 7:39Speaker 2: dreads it and thinks about bad luck. Adobe thinks, well,
- 7:41Speaker 2: my luck is bad three hundred and sixty four days
- 7:43Speaker 2: a year.
- 7:43Speaker 1: This is the day I could get lucky. That's an
- 7:46Speaker 1: amazing verse psychology.
- 7:49Speaker 2: So it's Friday, so we're going into Valentine's Day, so
- 7:51Speaker 2: we can think, you know, hearts and candy and I think,
- 7:54Speaker 2: you know all that stuff, and Billy and I are
- 7:57Speaker 2: going to warmer climbs, though Billy's gonna soldier through do
- 8:00Speaker 2: the show would be amazing, I hope. I'm sure the
- 8:03Speaker 2: lads will make appearances occasionally.
- 8:05Speaker 3: You'll hear them, Yeah, potentially unwelcomed, but they definitely will be.
- 8:10Speaker 3: They'll definitely find their way on there. Yeah, I know
- 8:12Speaker 3: they will be. But we we buried the lead today.
- 8:15Speaker 2: As we're ten minutes into the show goods, we've not
- 8:18Speaker 2: mentioned that Arman is a TV star.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Come on now, how about it? Come on, how about it,
- 8:23Speaker 1: Let's go. Let's go baby.
- 8:26Speaker 2: Representing Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin on the Spectrum News round
- 8:33Speaker 2: Table with Dennis Crousey, and we were about to wrap up,
- 8:36Speaker 2: and I said, no, no, no, we need to get
- 8:37Speaker 2: a picture.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Let's yeah, a picture of you guys enties amazing.
- 8:40Speaker 4: Sure.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean when you go on the Dennis Crasey
- 8:42Speaker 1: round table, you make sure to you got a nod up.
- 8:44Speaker 1: It used to be the sport Coats, but now it's.
- 8:46Speaker 3: A not get a nod on there a beautiful white
- 8:49Speaker 3: shirt which you can clearly tell armand still had from
- 8:52Speaker 3: potentially a wedding in a recent past.
- 8:56Speaker 4: Absolutely, like a lot of my formal wear was repurpose
- 9:00Speaker 4: from the weddings. Now, I did not somebody accused me
- 9:04Speaker 4: of renting the suit. I did not rent that suit.
- 9:06Speaker 4: Oh no, but I cannot confirm or deny that tags
- 9:08Speaker 4: might be honest in case I.
- 9:09Speaker 1: Need to return it. Oh that's a beautiful thing. Actually
- 9:11Speaker 1: that's a new business now. But I didn't really do that. No, no, no, no,
- 9:14Speaker 1: that's all there.
- 9:14Speaker 4: Actually that I think that suit was courtesy of all
- 9:18Speaker 4: the credit I got at Men's Warehouse for spending so
- 9:21Speaker 4: much money on tuxedo rentals. Yeah, if you spend enough money,
- 9:25Speaker 4: like at past two thousand dollars, you get like a
- 9:27Speaker 4: two hundred dollars gift card, which I didn't realize until
- 9:30Speaker 4: I walked in there to get, you know, my tuxedo
- 9:33Speaker 4: rental fitted, which is the biggest racket in America, by
- 9:35Speaker 4: the way, for my fourteenth wedding that I stood up
- 9:38Speaker 4: in and and they're like, oh, you got this credit,
- 9:40Speaker 4: I'm like, wow, really, I might as well buy a
- 9:42Speaker 4: new suit and also journal also during COVID, guys, because
- 9:45Speaker 4: I was talking a Hunter about this, because Hunter was
- 9:47Speaker 4: thinking about to have how many ties do I have
- 9:49Speaker 4: a tie? All this, I was like, Hunter, if you
- 9:50Speaker 4: need to tie, let me know. Because during COVID, when
- 9:53Speaker 4: nobody was going to work, there were some really wild
- 9:56Speaker 4: sales on like men's wear. Unlike all these men's wear sits,
- 10:00Speaker 4: I was getting stuff for like ninety five percent off.
- 10:01Speaker 1: That was like my, you know, that was like my,
- 10:04Speaker 1: that was your greatest moment.
- 10:05Speaker 4: That was my help the wardrobe during all this To say,
- 10:09Speaker 4: I felt good in the suit yesterday, And thank you
- 10:11Speaker 4: Dennis for having us on. Dennis Crawsy of course, you
- 10:14Speaker 4: guys work with him, you work with them on Packer's
- 10:16Speaker 4: Preview drew a legend of our business and it was
- 10:20Speaker 4: an absolute pleasure and a lifelong.
- 10:21Speaker 1: Dream to be on the round table.
- 10:23Speaker 4: It is uh yeah, he makes it easy, right you
- 10:25Speaker 4: just you know totally, it's incredibly and it goes fast, yeah,
- 10:29Speaker 4: fast fast. It's the fastest twenty three minutes in support.
- 10:32Speaker 1: That's one thing we're used to the long form doing
- 10:35Speaker 1: this stuff. Yeah, but that is.
- 10:36Speaker 2: About TV is you can kind of edit yourself because
- 10:38Speaker 2: you've got to be a little bit quicker. Yeah, it's
- 10:41Speaker 2: a little quicker. Yeah, it's it's it's the speed of
- 10:44Speaker 2: the game is different. Television as a poster radio, it's
- 10:47Speaker 2: like all fast break. It's fun because if you talk
- 10:49Speaker 2: for a minute straight on TV, that seems like an hour.
- 10:52Speaker 1: And estate, you know, because I had to leave Hunter
- 10:57Speaker 1: a runaway to talk Brewers.
- 10:58Speaker 3: It's also tough for the guys that have to like
- 11:00Speaker 3: smile and awkwardly look like either at you or the camera.
- 11:03Speaker 1: Right, that's even more part of this.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Yeah, those panel things. You don't even think about the camera.
- 11:08Speaker 2: You just look at tennis. They'll find you.
- 11:11Speaker 1: It was great.
- 11:12Speaker 4: It was a great thing to do, and it was
- 11:14Speaker 4: it was a great experience and obviously a lot of fun.
- 11:16Speaker 1: You know, as you tell mom and dad you're gonna
- 11:18Speaker 1: be on TV. Of course my dad I was like
- 11:19Speaker 1: interested in, like if Leroy was going to be on
- 11:22Speaker 1: always in a different one. No, that's why you're in,
- 11:24Speaker 1: because he's not.
- 11:24Speaker 2: I'm here, squad bombers there now you're playing a split
- 11:31Speaker 2: squad game in Peoria.
- 11:34Speaker 1: It's all right, and I believe you too, are making
- 11:36Speaker 1: an appearance at some point. So at some point, I.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Haven't been on the round table for a long time
- 11:39Speaker 2: because my previous afternoon shift coincided, of course, and Dennis
- 11:44Speaker 2: like at one point he texted me to apologize. He's like, hey,
- 11:46Speaker 2: I haven't forgotten much. I'd love to have you on,
- 11:48Speaker 2: but I know that your radio shows at the same
- 11:49Speaker 2: time that we tape.
- 11:50Speaker 1: I'm like, you're not.
- 11:51Speaker 2: It's okay, I have a previous engagement. That's fine, no problem,
- 11:55Speaker 2: but I look forward to chopping up with Billy on there.
- 11:58Speaker 2: We will represent. But thank you guys for representing Fox
- 12:00Speaker 2: Sports Radio Wisconsin and and the Huddle in great job.
- 12:04Speaker 2: You know, I haven't watched it.
- 12:05Speaker 1: Yet, but I hope too. I mean, let's go. Yeah,
- 12:08Speaker 1: I'm just actually gonna run it all. Yeah.
- 12:11Speaker 4: Well, we got the and the thing is William Contrera's
- 12:14Speaker 4: agreement just pop right before it went on.
- 12:15Speaker 1: So that was nice. It's huge, too huge.
- 12:18Speaker 2: Wild Bill back with an option for another year that
- 12:20Speaker 2: was avoid the arbitration crap.
- 12:22Speaker 1: And you know all the other thing.
- 12:23Speaker 3: And this one looks like a little bit more of
- 12:25Speaker 3: a real option that they could pick up. Right Like
- 12:27Speaker 3: if I if I read the last one, it was
- 12:30Speaker 3: in some like eighteen million dollars a wild option that
- 12:33Speaker 3: they would have picked up for this year to send
- 12:35Speaker 3: them right back in as kind of a protection deal.
- 12:38Speaker 3: It's nice to be able to make sure that you're
- 12:40Speaker 3: not going to have anybody sitting into a arbitration room
- 12:43Speaker 3: having to tell them why they're not maybe the most
- 12:45Speaker 3: valuable player here.
- 12:47Speaker 2: We're we're getting carbon burns vibes. They exchange figures, like
- 12:50Speaker 2: what do they do and try to screw their one
- 12:52Speaker 2: of the best players, Like, no, it's not That's not
- 12:54Speaker 2: how it works, man, It's it's not only just the brewers,
- 12:57Speaker 2: it's the entire industry. We talked about this. It's like
- 12:59Speaker 2: you can't. You got to set the figure where you
- 13:02Speaker 2: think the figure should be. And he made out okay,
- 13:04Speaker 2: And I.
- 13:05Speaker 3: Think sometimes it definitely does depends on the person, right,
- 13:08Speaker 3: Like that is that becomes a people deal and if anybody,
- 13:12Speaker 3: I think can bounce back from just about anything. And also,
- 13:16Speaker 3: while this is all going on, have like a major
- 13:18Speaker 3: life decision of getting engaged to one of your best
- 13:20Speaker 3: friend's sisters.
- 13:21Speaker 1: I think I think William is gonna be okay figuring it.
- 13:24Speaker 1: Those family gatherings are gonna be lit that much.
- 13:27Speaker 4: Imagine the party, Oh my god, imagine the party limo
- 13:31Speaker 4: the party bus from the reception to the church.
- 13:34Speaker 3: You want to talk about an exciting moment, That was
- 13:36Speaker 3: when I told young Carson that two of his favorite
- 13:38Speaker 3: players we're gonna be brothers. That's so cool, legitimate bro
- 13:42Speaker 3: Oh my god. That was He's still figuring it out.
- 13:44Speaker 3: Can't fully understand because Mommy is still mommy. Yes, but
- 13:47Speaker 3: we're we're working it out on the explanation as to
- 13:50Speaker 3: how they're actually going and who's gonna be the wedding party.
- 13:52Speaker 1: That's what I keep thinking. Well, Carson knows like who
- 13:54Speaker 1: his uncles are and stuff.
- 13:55Speaker 3: You can kind of play that trans Yeah, we're trying
- 13:57Speaker 3: to move around.
- 13:58Speaker 4: Yeah my mommy, dar not Mommy's no, no mommy now.
- 14:03Speaker 4: So the option is for fourteen and a half.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Is that right? Fourteen after nine and a half this year.
- 14:08Speaker 4: So it was interesting because I first saw that and
- 14:11Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, this could turn out to be even
- 14:14Speaker 4: a deal if William has a monster year or beneficial
- 14:17Speaker 4: and then Hunter kind of thought, wow, that's higher than
- 14:18Speaker 4: I thought. So I was curious on what you guys thought,
- 14:21Speaker 4: if you guys were surprised by that number. I initially
- 14:23Speaker 4: wasn't because I thought, well, if William's having his best year.
- 14:26Speaker 1: He's one of the MVP candidates. You know, it's hurt
- 14:28Speaker 1: a lot last year. Yeah, and that was going to
- 14:30Speaker 1: depress it.
- 14:31Speaker 2: And that's you know again back to the great Doug
- 14:33Speaker 2: Melvin said, you know the thing about arbitration is it
- 14:35Speaker 2: makes you hate your own player.
- 14:37Speaker 1: Right.
- 14:37Speaker 2: You have to go in there and with a binder
- 14:39Speaker 2: the size of the New York phone book and litigate
- 14:42Speaker 2: against them, and you have to say why he sucks
- 14:44Speaker 2: and why and he was hurt look at all look
- 14:45Speaker 2: at his batg Garverager and look at you know, look
- 14:47Speaker 2: what he did in this stretch and this key stretch
- 14:49Speaker 2: of the season when he just just fell off the map, right,
- 14:51Speaker 2: And you have to list all that stuff, and the
- 14:53Speaker 2: player has to sit there, well, if he chooses to,
- 14:54Speaker 2: he has to sit there and listen to it.
- 14:56Speaker 1: But what his employers actually think.
- 14:58Speaker 3: Yeah, and that that can be a fraud steam mark
- 15:00Speaker 3: you coming back. The good thing also, I mean, like
- 15:02Speaker 3: you look at it in terms of the highest paid
- 15:06Speaker 3: catchers in baseball, He's gonna get himself right into where
- 15:08Speaker 3: I think he should be. He should probably be higher
- 15:10Speaker 3: than eight in all of baseball. But he's at least
- 15:13Speaker 3: in the top ten. He'll definitely be in the top
- 15:15Speaker 3: five next year with that fourteen million, and he's going
- 15:18Speaker 3: to make a nice sizeable point.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Free agency looms, and that you know, maybe that fourteen
- 15:23Speaker 2: and a half the Brewers will end up not paying it.
- 15:25Speaker 3: Yeah, Jefferson Carro is ready to go, you know so.
- 15:28Speaker 3: And he was one of the guys drew that I
- 15:30Speaker 3: had wondered. And again, maybe this is just a false
- 15:33Speaker 3: hope for starting to forecast as who could possibly get
- 15:36Speaker 3: the next extension out of the group that you just watch.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Right.
- 15:40Speaker 3: Obviously Churio gets it, but he's on a different timeline, right,
- 15:44Speaker 3: He's got in his own class. Yeah, Contreras felt like
- 15:48Speaker 3: one that you would be interested in possibly offering the
- 15:51Speaker 3: money because the numbers at a catcher spot are so
- 15:54Speaker 3: much lower. His bat is still so valuable and you
- 15:58Speaker 3: can't tell me you can't see first base.
- 15:59Speaker 2: But eventually, and that's the thing is, you have to
- 16:01Speaker 2: project his next position. Could he play first base? Could
- 16:04Speaker 2: he be serviceable over there? Because then you just figure
- 16:07Speaker 2: catchers with the wear and tear, and he catches a
- 16:09Speaker 2: lot of a lot of games man, that's and there's
- 16:12Speaker 2: a lot of chances for foul tips and just beat
- 16:15Speaker 2: up in the wear tear. Not everybody as Pud Rodriguez
- 16:18Speaker 2: and could play forever. No or armands boy ya yati. Yeah,
- 16:22Speaker 2: you know they got to give those guys props, those
- 16:23Speaker 2: guys that play behind the dish forever. Yes, not everybody
- 16:27Speaker 2: can do that and stay healthy and productive.
- 16:29Speaker 3: I learned it with, uh, with one of my one
- 16:31Speaker 3: of my favorites and one of the great American athletes,
- 16:34Speaker 3: Joe Mauer, where all of a sudden, you're like, his
- 16:35Speaker 3: boy's gonna be broken, Like you can't.
- 16:37Speaker 1: He can't.
- 16:37Speaker 3: He can't sit back there that long. Even though the
- 16:40Speaker 3: value'll be different, the number might be a little bit
- 16:42Speaker 3: more digestible, but uh, for for the offensive year he
- 16:46Speaker 3: had last year, you're right, it definitely moved the number
- 16:48Speaker 3: down a little bit. I would be I'd be interested
- 16:51Speaker 3: to see if they could buy out one to two
- 16:53Speaker 3: years of his free agency, if they made him some
- 16:56Speaker 3: kind of three or a four year offer at some
- 16:58Speaker 3: point during the.
- 16:59Speaker 4: Season, because the market it's interesting, Well we don't know
- 17:01Speaker 4: what the Laborers situation is gonna be. Yeah, but the
- 17:03Speaker 4: market's interesting for catchers always because you could perform, perform,
- 17:06Speaker 4: but teams might these days say, well, you're gonna break down.
- 17:09Speaker 4: We don't want to invest in you yourself. You know
- 17:11Speaker 4: what what he what kind of deals ops will get, But.
- 17:13Speaker 1: It was what is real muto? Make? Real muto is
- 17:16Speaker 1: by far the highest.
- 17:17Speaker 3: He just re upped to twenty three million, sal Salvey
- 17:20Speaker 3: Perez twenty and the kid from the LA the Dodgers,
- 17:23Speaker 3: Will Smith fourteen million. Yeah, that's right, That's where I thought,
- 17:26Speaker 3: that's that's not crazy.
- 17:27Speaker 4: That's why I didn't think this was an outlandis number
- 17:29Speaker 4: for an option, because if William plays into that, he's
- 17:31Speaker 4: definitely one of those top five guys.
- 17:33Speaker 2: Because you the baseline for him, if healthy, is he
- 17:35Speaker 2: expected to be in the All Star conversation right now?
- 17:37Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 17:39Speaker 3: Hurt a lot last year cal Rally just signed a
- 17:41Speaker 3: big extension and now obviously different player, but his extension
- 17:44Speaker 3: was six years, one hundred and five million.
- 17:46Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's a guy that you know, DH all.
- 17:49Speaker 3: Over, DH all over, So I mean like there's I
- 17:52Speaker 3: don't think he's gonna get twenty five million in any years.
- 17:54Speaker 3: That's what Raleigh's next three will be. But I think
- 17:56Speaker 3: it'd be an interesting conversation. It will be fun.
- 17:58Speaker 2: So we've got play I need to unpack for you
- 18:01Speaker 2: today on the Friday edition of The Huddle. This is
- 18:03Speaker 2: the day that our show goes international.

- 18:36Speaker 2: don't want to, you know, I don't want to, like,
- 18:38Speaker 2: you know, impinge on Kate's studies or her social thing

- 19:39Speaker 2: I had a big hand in, and one was beyond
- 19:41Speaker 2: my control. And I'm pissed about both of them. I've
- 19:44Speaker 2: got I've got some residual anger. I've got some issues.
- 19:48Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about that. It's Friday the thirteenth, it's

- 19:59Speaker 1: It's the Huddle Fox, It's Radio Wisconsin, wrapping it back
- 20:11Speaker 1: off the rank, behind the back path. That could cut
- 20:13Speaker 1: back to cap Hill, counting car Anny, others going to
- 20:34Speaker 1: the bathroom. Here he's laying out.
- 20:37Speaker 2: That absolute thing of duty.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Yea, I'm about there be more from them there. I
- 20:45Speaker 1: guess U s a U s a. The Orthodox Latvians
- 20:50Speaker 1: crushed yesterday. Thank you for making that reference.
- 20:52Speaker 4: How do you not because you wouldn't know? And Billy
- 20:54Speaker 4: as the only billy would But no, I don't. George
- 20:58Speaker 4: Sanza converted to lad Ving Orthodox to try and get
- 21:00Speaker 4: a girl.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Could it work now?
- 21:03Speaker 4: She wanted to Uh, she wasn't ready for something complicated.
- 21:08Speaker 1: He converted to the religion of Latvian Orthodox.
- 21:10Speaker 4: I think Cramer got a none default in love with
- 21:12Speaker 4: him because.
- 21:13Speaker 1: He had the Cavorka for eight seven seven, seven three
- 21:19Speaker 1: five edition of The Huddle.
- 21:20Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin nine twenty, Milwaukee, ten seventy Madison,
- 21:23Speaker 2: of course everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, streaming live on
- 21:25Speaker 2: the Facebook YouTube and x for those of you early risers.
- 21:29Speaker 4: All right, nice start for the USA men, though it
- 21:32Speaker 4: was in there in their quest for gold.
- 21:33Speaker 1: They're rolling. They were rolling pretty good.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Had that on yesterday while uh, I took a huge
- 21:38Speaker 2: project on yesterday and it was I'm ahead of the game.
- 21:41Speaker 2: I'm still on vacation tomorrow, but I did the spring weaning,
- 21:45Speaker 2: the weeding of the closet.
- 21:47Speaker 1: Oh two contractor.
- 21:49Speaker 2: Bags full of clothes, and I was ruthless. I'm a
- 21:52Speaker 2: recondoed that. It's like, man, I bought this shirt. I've
- 21:56Speaker 2: worn it twice and I've not gotten rid of it
- 21:58Speaker 2: because I I didn't get my money out of it yet.
- 22:00Speaker 1: It m I'm never gonna wear it, throw it. I'm
- 22:02Speaker 1: really bad at that from high school.
- 22:06Speaker 2: Yeah, So now it's like anytime you get clothes, you
- 22:08Speaker 2: got to throw something away, right because you just get
- 22:10Speaker 2: you hord stuff.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Oh someday that'll fit. But that's the.
- 22:14Speaker 3: Ends up turning into the NFL yearbook or rule book,
- 22:17Speaker 3: because every single year you throw five or six new
- 22:19Speaker 3: rules into it, but you never cut a couple of them.
- 22:21Speaker 2: I did that yesterday. I undertook it was and I
- 22:23Speaker 2: had the game on. Throughout the game. It was like
- 22:24Speaker 2: a whole six hour, seven hour project of just weeding
- 22:28Speaker 2: through stuff, trying everything on, like and then I was like,
- 22:30Speaker 2: I'm getting rid.
- 22:31Speaker 1: I got rid of some stuff that I really like.
- 22:33Speaker 4: That was is very tough, especially if you have an
- 22:35Speaker 4: emotional connection with it, yes, like a memory associated or
- 22:38Speaker 4: for me, a memory associated with the deal.
- 22:40Speaker 1: But you have way too many good memories.
- 22:43Speaker 3: That's the thing, Like you just make everything the best
- 22:45Speaker 3: memory in the world, and that's why it's harder to
- 22:47Speaker 3: forget about that memory.
- 22:49Speaker 4: But that's the Marie comment that where you're supposed to
- 22:50Speaker 4: take every piece of clothing and say does it bring
- 22:53Speaker 4: me joy?
- 22:53Speaker 1: Does it bring you? Does it spark Joe?
- 22:55Speaker 2: And if it doesn't just get I like you thank
- 22:58Speaker 2: it and you thank it thank I'd say sparked joy
- 23:00Speaker 2: when I bought it because I got the deal, sure,
- 23:02Speaker 2: and it's like, now I get no joy from it,
- 23:04Speaker 2: and I'm going to pass it on someone else can
- 23:06Speaker 2: get joy from it, and we thank the garment, thank
- 23:08Speaker 2: you for your service to me, and then put.
- 23:10Speaker 1: It in the bin and get rid of it.
- 23:11Speaker 4: And then and then the next the person that picks
- 23:13Speaker 4: it up from the thrift store, we'll get joy from
- 23:16Speaker 4: sitting getting a grade five for sure.
- 23:18Speaker 3: The best thing is I did this a couple of
- 23:21Speaker 3: months ago, right before football season actually, uh, and and
- 23:24Speaker 3: my wife.
- 23:24Speaker 1: Was out of town. So I took a couple of
- 23:26Speaker 1: the hours and threw everything down.
- 23:28Speaker 3: And then I realized that, uh, it took me about
- 23:30Speaker 3: four weeks to actually take those bags to goodwill.
- 23:33Speaker 1: But that's the that's the next part.
- 23:34Speaker 3: That's next step of actually executing that that's gonna happen today.
- 23:38Speaker 2: What on earth are we doing with these bags? Like
- 23:40Speaker 2: how many hoodies do you need? And how many like
- 23:42Speaker 2: I had a couple of repeats like you have you know, oh,
- 23:45Speaker 2: sure have the same shirt, but see their ampuriations of
- 23:48Speaker 2: the same shirt.
- 23:49Speaker 4: You know, there are people out there that do keep
- 23:51Speaker 4: stuff and you never know when it'll come in handy.
- 23:53Speaker 4: Like one day you listen to the radio and the
- 23:55Speaker 4: dude really wants a nineteen ninety eight Naginal Olympics jazz.
- 23:58Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, you know, and Vegas Pete sends it over.
- 24:01Speaker 2: Yeah, and I had there was one or two items
- 24:04Speaker 2: that still had tags on them, right, And I'm like,
- 24:06Speaker 2: I'm never read of this. It was a good deal,
- 24:08Speaker 2: it was cheap, but that doesn't mean it was good
- 24:10Speaker 2: and so and the thing is, my closet is still
- 24:13Speaker 2: pretty full.
- 24:14Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I always his.
- 24:15Speaker 2: But it's just not stuffed like Costanza's walla, to use
- 24:18Speaker 2: another Seinfeld reference, It's not stuffed. It's just it's full
- 24:22Speaker 2: like it's it's And I got rid of a ton
- 24:25Speaker 2: of stuff. And you know how many hoodies can you wear?
- 24:28Speaker 2: And this is sentimental light and now pitch it not
- 24:31Speaker 2: as much. So that was my project, I say. While
- 24:33Speaker 2: the hockey game was on, so I did get to
- 24:35Speaker 2: watch a bunch of the Olympics. Now a couple of
- 24:37Speaker 2: things going on in my corner of the universe aside
- 24:40Speaker 2: from that and the trip that I'm taking to Goodwill
- 24:42Speaker 2: as I'm leaving for Mexico tomorrow. One of these things
- 24:46Speaker 2: is my fault completely because of a complete lack of
- 24:49Speaker 2: awareness and smarts, and the other one is not of
- 24:53Speaker 2: my making. This afternoon, the last one of the last
- 24:56Speaker 2: things I have the boxes I have to check today
- 24:58Speaker 2: before I hit the road. I have a physical and
- 25:02Speaker 2: my physical today is at four o'clock in the afternoon.
- 25:06Speaker 1: You gonna wait all day for it, basically, right, Yeah.
- 25:08Speaker 2: Now, I had scheduled it to be at nine o'clock
- 25:12Speaker 2: right after our show.
- 25:13Speaker 1: And you know what you have to do before a physical.
- 25:15Speaker 1: You have to study.
- 25:16Speaker 2: No, You're supposed to fast eight hours at least, right,
- 25:19Speaker 2: So I thought, all right, well, I'll just you know,
- 25:21Speaker 2: won't eat anything or drink anything other than water for
- 25:24Speaker 2: during the show, and then I'll go in. And but
- 25:26Speaker 2: a couple weeks ago they called me and yeah, your
- 25:27Speaker 2: doctor's not going to be available during the time that
- 25:30Speaker 2: you set for a year. Because every year when I
- 25:33Speaker 2: have my physical at this time of year, it's usually
- 25:35Speaker 2: I do it right in the second week of January,
- 25:37Speaker 2: and I want to start the year of a you know,
- 25:39Speaker 2: knowing how your health is going.
- 25:40Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:41Speaker 1: Absolutely, And then I make the appointment for the next year.
- 25:43Speaker 2: And then I got the notification like right around New
- 25:45Speaker 2: Year's like, ah, your doctor is going to be out
- 25:47Speaker 2: of town. Then we'll have to reschedule for the thirteenth,
- 25:49Speaker 2: which is a Friday, at four o'clock. I'm like, okay,
- 25:51Speaker 2: I'll do it. Then I'm like, wait a minute, four o'clock.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Who does a physical at four o'clock?
- 25:55Speaker 1: And if I have to be fasted from eight am
- 25:57Speaker 1: until old that's the top. You can't eat now.
- 26:00Speaker 2: For the blood work that I'm gonna need. And then
- 26:02Speaker 2: then I'm driving in rush hour. It's like the whole
- 26:03Speaker 2: thing is going to be a paid in the ass.
- 26:05Speaker 2: That's not my fault. That's one of the things I've got. Yeah,
- 26:07Speaker 2: that's a brutal deal. The other one is, just as
- 26:09Speaker 2: I was driving in I heard mentioned and I realized
- 26:12Speaker 2: that Monday the first day of my vacation, and I
- 26:16Speaker 2: put in for five days of vacation. Monday's President So
- 26:20Speaker 2: it was a great move on my part to take vacation.
- 26:22Speaker 2: But I burned a vacation day on President's Day, and
- 26:25Speaker 2: I got a claw back because it's off.
- 26:28Speaker 1: Yeah, well, luckily there's so working you guys.
- 26:30Speaker 4: Can't you Yeah, but can't you just take it out
- 26:33Speaker 4: of the little system.
- 26:34Speaker 2: And there's so many It was already approved, so I
- 26:38Speaker 2: don't know if I can claw it back. Officially, it
- 26:40Speaker 2: looks at some point I'm just going to take a
- 26:42Speaker 2: day and say, well, you know, yeah for sure.
- 26:44Speaker 3: Well listen, I think you just write it on a
- 26:46Speaker 3: piece of paper and hand it to the boss.
- 26:47Speaker 2: It was dumb of me not to No wonder it
- 26:49Speaker 2: got approve so fast when he didn't need to.
- 26:53Speaker 1: At least you know, the boss will remember you're gone, though.
- 26:56Speaker 1: That's fair one time. I I hate to do this.
- 26:58Speaker 4: Allow my doing this, because you know I'm not gonna
- 27:00Speaker 4: I'm not trying to like step on an Okay, for
- 27:03Speaker 4: my honeymoon, I was gone, but one of the days
- 27:05Speaker 4: was a company holiday, so I didn't put the vacation out.
- 27:08Speaker 4: I showed up on the schedule for that day. Oh, like, no,
- 27:12Speaker 4: I'm still gone. It's I'm still gone. I'm not available
- 27:14Speaker 4: in the middle of my honeymoon. Yes, figure it out, but.
- 27:18Speaker 2: It really is good. But yeah, no, it's a company holiday.
- 27:22Speaker 2: So but company holidays mean nothing to us. We work
- 27:24Speaker 2: all the time, so we don't think about it. We
- 27:27Speaker 2: don't think about what we work a.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Lot of days.
- 27:29Speaker 4: I was thinking, like, I love George Washington, all right,
- 27:32Speaker 4: I understand why his birthday is a federal holiday, but
- 27:34Speaker 4: shouldn't the Super Bowl also be a federal holiday?
- 27:36Speaker 1: Super Bowl Monday.
- 27:37Speaker 4: I should say, like I was just thinking about this,
- 27:39Speaker 4: you know, because we just got it.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Next year.
- 27:41Speaker 4: Super Bowl Monday is as important to Americans as George
- 27:44Speaker 4: Washington's birthday, at least as important. I would say, it's
- 27:48Speaker 4: more for a lot of them. Now, this is not
- 27:50Speaker 4: like a history and this is not an that George Washington.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Dake your dream is coming to fruition next year. Really
- 27:55Speaker 1: that's happening. It's a federal holiday.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Well yeah, not Super Bowl Sunday, Valentine President Monday, the
- 28:02Speaker 2: Monday after as presidents.
- 28:03Speaker 1: So that's a schedule. Court. But we're not going to
- 28:06Speaker 1: get off. We have to talk about that.
- 28:07Speaker 4: I don't mean us, I mean for regular regular like
- 28:10Speaker 4: obviously we have a job and a service to provide.
- 28:12Speaker 4: I understand that we're you know, we don't get those advantages.
- 28:16Speaker 4: We're blue collar. You know they're talking about the four
- 28:17Speaker 4: day work week like that would never affect us. Right,
- 28:20Speaker 4: We're gonna be here every day, like in every five
- 28:22Speaker 4: days of the week.
- 28:23Speaker 1: You know, some depends. Some people might work Monday, some
- 28:25Speaker 1: people might work Friday. Find a new job.
- 28:27Speaker 4: I think billions wandering when I when I'm breaking bad.
- 28:30Speaker 4: But it's not an anti Blue.
- 28:31Speaker 3: So no, no, I don't love you trying to take
- 28:34Speaker 3: a shot at George Washing was no shots in the
- 28:36Speaker 3: midst of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the
- 28:39Speaker 3: great amount country of America.
- 28:41Speaker 1: He was very important.
- 28:41Speaker 4: But I'm saying everyday Americans see that the boys at
- 28:44Speaker 4: Valley Forwards were in bad shape before he arrived. He
- 28:47Speaker 4: saved that army. Yeah, and I think you now again.
- 28:50Speaker 4: We love the Super Bowl? Yes, we love it.
- 28:53Speaker 1: How many people are in America? What do we got?
- 28:57Speaker 3: Three fifty one twenty you're gonna tell me that it's
- 29:03Speaker 3: over a third of the people in the in the country.
- 29:05Speaker 3: We care about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln's birthdays.
- 29:09Speaker 4: Lincoln, I didn't hear Lincoln. Well, that's what President's Day
- 29:12Speaker 4: is about. Well, I think Washington's birthdays.
- 29:15Speaker 1: But they met it together. It's a different one though
- 29:17Speaker 1: it was my wrong when they met it together with presidents.
- 29:22Speaker 1: I just like Canada can have Boxing Day, we can
- 29:24Speaker 1: have Super Bowl Day.
- 29:26Speaker 2: So now, when you do plan your vacations, and especially
- 29:29Speaker 2: for civilians who don't have to work on those holidays,
- 29:31Speaker 2: you do work it that way because you game the system.
- 29:33Speaker 2: I'll take four days here and I'm you're sure in today? Yeah,
- 29:36Speaker 2: no doubt about it. So that was my idiocy so bad.
- 29:39Speaker 2: So physical will have to shut down and Billy brought
- 29:42Speaker 2: in some sinkers today.
- 29:43Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a bad move by me.
- 29:44Speaker 4: Now.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Oh man, Oh, I think I'll eat one because it's like,
- 29:46Speaker 2: as long as I'm in the eight hour fasting.
- 29:48Speaker 1: That's fair. Actually this turned out well for you.
- 29:51Speaker 2: Yeah, And my blood work comes after the physical usually,
- 29:55Speaker 2: so you know, four o'clock is the kickoff for the
- 29:57Speaker 2: fiscal and then if I go down to the lab
- 29:59Speaker 2: and do the quick blood draw, I can.
- 30:01Speaker 1: I got an extra hour to to squeeze in some food.
- 30:04Speaker 3: So you guys are gonna laugh. So that's important for
- 30:06Speaker 3: me to do the physical.
- 30:09Speaker 1: Right on last time.
- 30:11Speaker 3: I don't I don't know that I've had the the
- 30:14Speaker 3: the physical sense like they required it for sports.
- 30:18Speaker 1: I don't.
- 30:18Speaker 3: I don't know that I've done it since the Walgreens
- 30:22Speaker 3: physical where they're like, listen, we can get you in,
- 30:24Speaker 3: and we can get you in on Saturday.
- 30:27Speaker 4: I love my physical because my my doctor listens to
- 30:30Speaker 4: sports radio, so he likes talking to me. Boy, and
- 30:33Speaker 4: he's got he's got like a lot of lind Dicky
- 30:35Speaker 4: stuff in the up the office.
- 30:36Speaker 1: Guy, My guy doesn't show.
- 30:39Speaker 2: My guy does not exude any interest and doesn't care
- 30:42Speaker 2: what I do, like he just wants to get through it.
- 30:44Speaker 1: So you guys talking about dv o A when you think.
- 30:46Speaker 3: Yeah, really yeah, I know, right, physically usually this packer's offense,
- 30:50Speaker 3: it's wild right now.
- 30:51Speaker 2: I would say my physical is shorter than much considerably short.
- 30:55Speaker 2: It's probably half the time of your average oil change. Nice, okay,
- 31:00Speaker 2: out in like ten minutes. How's everything look good?
- 31:02Speaker 4: All right? Yeah?
- 31:03Speaker 1: Feeling good? Yeah? Yeah, I should do that.
- 31:06Speaker 2: But you guys, man, come on, you know, James Vanderbeeks
- 31:10Speaker 2: not a wake up call to get you guys. Got
- 31:12Speaker 2: to start getting colony earlier important.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Your generation. Your generation is shocking rise. And we talk.
- 31:20Speaker 4: About men's health every day. Yeah, on this show Game Day,
- 31:23Speaker 4: men's health visited him yesterday. I should find a doctor,
- 31:25Speaker 4: That's that's what I should.
- 31:27Speaker 2: You should, yes, absolutely definitely, especially with your the tough
- 31:30Speaker 2: thing though once once your doctor retires, it's a weird.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Like it's like guys meeting new friends. Like, dudes don't
- 31:38Speaker 3: necessarily go out and say I need to find new friends.
- 31:41Speaker 3: You don't all of a sudden run into somebody say hey, man,
- 31:43Speaker 3: can I have your number?
- 31:44Speaker 1: It was fun talking to you.
- 31:45Speaker 2: Maybe I'm like Arman, though my interaction with the guy
- 31:49Speaker 2: is like ten minutes a year, Like he doesn't remember anything.
- 31:51Speaker 2: He looks at the chart and like, what what what
- 31:53Speaker 2: allegiance do I have to this guy?
- 31:55Speaker 1: That's you know, that's true? I guess I I am
- 31:57Speaker 1: thinking that.
- 31:58Speaker 2: Maybe I'm Yeah, you're to a show you're thinking of,
- 32:00Speaker 2: like maybe growing up your pediatrician was the same guy.
- 32:04Speaker 1: That's the thing I got. I gotta find this out.
- 32:06Speaker 4: I got.
- 32:06Speaker 3: They well, they always say it's primary, So I think
- 32:09Speaker 3: if I'm gonna put somebody as my primary contact, I
- 32:12Speaker 3: like to know a little something.
- 32:12Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you can do.
- 32:13Speaker 2: Your research, and we do assume that there's rate my professor,
- 32:16Speaker 2: there's rate my doctor checks yell produced yell proviews like this.
- 32:20Speaker 1: I can do that.
- 32:21Speaker 4: We always assume that, you know, when we go to
- 32:23Speaker 4: the doctor, like it's our biggest visit of the year.
- 32:25Speaker 4: So they, yeah, they have so many of these. Ever
- 32:27Speaker 4: I don't remember. Yeah, it's the same with the dentists too. Yeah,
- 32:30Speaker 4: that was the one advent. And I also should go
- 32:32Speaker 4: going to Marquette was when I needed well, my childhood dentist,
- 32:35Speaker 4: the head forever retired. I was like, I gotta find
- 32:37Speaker 4: a dentist, and I'm like, I gotta know somebody that's
- 32:38Speaker 4: a dentist. And I did, you know, do it for
- 32:41Speaker 4: my history class back in Marquete days.
- 32:43Speaker 1: So there you go, you know.
- 32:44Speaker 2: Go, yeahtastic, that's how you're gonna say you went to
- 32:46Speaker 2: the clinic and let the students work on you.
- 32:48Speaker 1: I think that was always a deal.
- 32:50Speaker 2: Yeah, it's always a market eight seven seven seven nine
- 32:54Speaker 2: ninety seven three. Hey, we haven't even talked about how
- 32:56Speaker 2: about those red hot Milwaukee Bucks going into the break
- 32:58Speaker 2: on a little bit of a heater last night? Is
- 33:01Speaker 2: Giannis getting excited watching these guys to play?
- 33:04Speaker 1: Got to you know.
- 33:05Speaker 3: I think there's Thomas Jersey and some Uzman jerseys. Goodness,
- 33:09Speaker 3: I mean, Arman's just he's having Uzman borrow flashbacks.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Obsessed of.
- 33:14Speaker 4: One of the first things I thought of was when
- 33:16Speaker 4: we but more importantly, you mentioned we'll talk about it.
- 33:19Speaker 4: I love that we have an excuse to not tank
- 33:21Speaker 4: because we have a legitimate one. In my opinion, I'm ready.
- 33:24Speaker 2: I think I'm fair and It's so funny too, because
- 33:27Speaker 2: because the national media. And by the way, did you
- 33:29Speaker 2: see Shaan's like warming up for the UH for the
- 33:32Speaker 2: celebrity game.
- 33:33Speaker 1: I didn't see it, but I hope it's not like Portnoy.
- 33:35Speaker 1: His jumpers pretty wet. No, he looks he can play.
- 33:39Speaker 1: He can play. He ain't part he went to one
- 33:42Speaker 1: of these guys. He can play.
- 33:43Speaker 2: But the thing is, like the national media, now the
- 33:46Speaker 2: teams are getting fined for tanking. They're they're fine and
- 33:49Speaker 2: now and now they're starting they're starting to be smoked.
- 33:52Speaker 2: Like are the Bucks slow walking Giannis in a in
- 33:55Speaker 2: an effort to tank?
- 33:56Speaker 1: Look away. They're playing the last six games.
- 33:58Speaker 2: They've played some of their best games of the season
- 34:00Speaker 2: in the last week.
- 34:01Speaker 4: It wouldn't be signing players like Cam Thomas. They're trying
- 34:03Speaker 4: to take heat.
- 34:04Speaker 3: One, four out of five and five of their last six. Yeah,
- 34:08Speaker 3: definitely not trying.
- 34:09Speaker 2: And they're starting to rebound and play with you know,
- 34:11Speaker 2: some pat and the way the ball moved.
- 34:12Speaker 1: And that's the thing about I like about Usman is
- 34:14Speaker 1: that he's a good.
- 34:15Speaker 2: Passer, dude, And the quickness is Pete Nance looks like
- 34:18Speaker 2: you can play.
- 34:18Speaker 1: Jericho Sims looks like a force, like I know, yeah, yeah.
- 34:22Speaker 2: They played Orlando and then they played what's left of
- 34:24Speaker 2: the Oklahoma City Thunders Championship starting lineup.
- 34:26Speaker 1: But come on, it was like, you take them where
- 34:28Speaker 1: you can get them.
- 34:29Speaker 3: But if you just watch some of the shots that
- 34:31Speaker 3: Dang is making from the outside, not one of them
- 34:33Speaker 3: look the same.
- 34:34Speaker 1: Not one of them was a similar setup.
- 34:36Speaker 2: And it was he made a click decisions to the
- 34:39Speaker 2: ball doesn't bog down with him.
- 34:40Speaker 3: I like, really nice defender around the riom. I'm excited man,
- 34:43Speaker 3: and listen. Uh Darvin ham Ham Sandwich was leading the
- 34:47Speaker 3: bench yesterday, but he gave all the credit to Doc
- 34:49Speaker 3: saying he's empowering these boys, letting them play.
- 34:52Speaker 1: Letting them fly.
- 34:53Speaker 2: Maybe there is something there, maybe maybe arms right, let's
- 34:55Speaker 2: make the playoffs and see what happens when the big
- 34:57Speaker 2: fella gets back. All right, we're off and running. It
- 35:00Speaker 2: is the Friday edition. Love is in the air because
- 35:02Speaker 2: Valentine's Day is tomorrow. It's also my mom's birthday. Gotta
- 35:06Speaker 2: love the Valentine's Birthday and it's Friday, the thirteenth, so
- 35:09Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about getting a lucky in a.
- 35:11Speaker 1: Sense, I think there's some folks that are gonna get
- 35:13Speaker 1: a lucky tonight in a sense. In a sense you're
- 35:15Speaker 1: listening to the huddle Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Is DJ Arman?
- 35:21Speaker 1: Is he spending the love songs today? All right? Now,
- 35:25Speaker 1: come on.
- 35:25Speaker 4: I figured i'd spin love songs, but I wanted to
- 35:27Speaker 4: spend some that were still decent bumps. I wasn't gonna
- 35:30Speaker 4: go the full like time life love collection that I
- 35:33Speaker 4: used to wake up to in.
- 35:34Speaker 1: The middle of the night when the TV was still on. Oh okay,
- 35:37Speaker 1: that was an old thing, Billy, when that that that's home.
- 35:39Speaker 3: I remember, I didn't know if you were just you
- 35:41Speaker 3: were just queuing it up, and that's how you were
- 35:42Speaker 3: going to bed back in the day.
- 35:44Speaker 1: Oh like, oh like to oh fall asleep too. Yeah,
- 35:47Speaker 1: that's that's how. That's how I heard that.
- 35:49Speaker 4: More likely, like you had something else on and you
- 35:52Speaker 4: forgot you the TV on and you didn't turn it off.
- 35:56Speaker 4: And then Michael Bolton's loud asses waking me up at
- 35:58Speaker 4: three in the morning because I figured, you know, but.
- 36:01Speaker 2: Hey, the barrister and Stateman Steve wing In, everybody watched
- 36:04Speaker 2: arm and thank you boys.
- 36:06Speaker 1: Come on now. Spectrum Sports Roundtable with Dennis Crousey.
- 36:10Speaker 4: I saw it was a great time yesterday I saw
- 36:12Speaker 4: an ex Adam and an X send.
- 36:13Speaker 1: It was weird to see Armond in a tie.
- 36:15Speaker 4: Yeah, I can understand that you probably don't see me
- 36:17Speaker 4: in the time much, although I do go to a
- 36:19Speaker 4: lot of weddings, so it depends on what stage of
- 36:20Speaker 4: life you've seen me at.
- 36:21Speaker 1: But yeah, a couple of handsome devils over there. Did
- 36:24Speaker 1: you have to dress up in school, Billy on game
- 36:27Speaker 1: day and a tie? Was that a thing for you? Guys?
- 36:31Speaker 1: You did jersey? Yeah, you did jersey for football.
- 36:35Speaker 3: My one year of middle school wrestling, you'd wear a
- 36:37Speaker 3: shirt and flo make us do that, you wear a
- 36:39Speaker 3: shirt and tie. But otherwise no, it was it was
- 36:41Speaker 3: jersey we did in hoops a lot.
- 36:43Speaker 1: Yeah too, that for basketball. Yeah.
- 36:45Speaker 4: So then I actually acquired some more ties than I
- 36:47Speaker 4: would have ever used in high school.
- 36:49Speaker 3: The majority of my ties are actually still from high school, though,
- 36:53Speaker 3: and still strikingly matched some random dress from a homecoming
- 36:57Speaker 3: day that's exactly yeah, yeah seven seven seven on for one,
- 37:02Speaker 3: I'm never wearing this.
- 37:03Speaker 1: Well, that should be get that. It should be a

- 37:32Speaker 3: My wife and I are really really bad at taking
- 37:35Speaker 3: pictures and doing anything kind of romantic. But there was
- 37:38Speaker 3: the moment where we're like, you know what we should do?
- 37:39Speaker 3: Give each other gifts for Valentine's Day?
- 37:41Speaker 4: And then we we each gave each other a gift card,
- 37:43Speaker 4: like you know what we should We should probably not

- 37:49Speaker 1: Let's go get that dishwasher we need exactly.
- 37:52Speaker 4: Let's get for both of us otherwise, right, something will

- 38:01Speaker 4: the month? Well, I didn't want to not be it.
- 38:03Speaker 4: And then it's like if I told you not to
- 38:05Speaker 4: give me anything. Yeah, but see if I go February fifteenth.
- 38:07Speaker 4: As you guys know, I like to do the pick
- 38:09Speaker 4: and say when they're discounted, there's hell at discounts. I'm like, well,
- 38:12Speaker 4: what difference is making flowers? Then well, don't tell me
- 38:15Speaker 4: arm when you got a discount, Like why that's.
- 38:17Speaker 3: That's the part of the story. That's a part of
- 38:20Speaker 3: the present. L I and we saved.
- 38:22Speaker 4: I'm gonna get one of those ultra huge balloons because
- 38:25Speaker 4: my daughter will love it.
- 38:26Speaker 1: You know that's gonna work. I like that. She'll go
- 38:28Speaker 1: crazy with that. You know. We had the little uh.
- 38:31Speaker 3: My wife got the little XO xo balloons for the
- 38:34Speaker 3: little photo shoot with the with the little guys.
- 38:37Speaker 1: You need those, We have those. They're not popped. You

- 38:44Speaker 1: a deal. We're leaving time. I just sell those on marketplace.
- 38:49Speaker 1: Well orf, Now that's that's the other thing.
- 38:52Speaker 2: Back to when I told you, guys, I called the
- 38:55Speaker 2: closet and have two like contractor bags of clothes, right.
- 38:58Speaker 2: If I had any gumption, I could put those up
- 39:00Speaker 2: on posh Mark or oh yeah.
- 39:02Speaker 4: Try to sell them. You want the recess out take
- 39:05Speaker 4: all that time to try five bucks? Yeah, too much effort. Well,
- 39:09Speaker 4: some of the stuff I could get twenty five, although maybe.
- 39:11Speaker 3: But here I found myself just sitting there scrolling on
- 39:14Speaker 3: Facebook Marketplace this morning. I'm looking at all these random
- 39:16Speaker 3: Brewer sweatshirts. I'm like, huh, that looks nice. I probably
- 39:19Speaker 3: have the same one. Huh, I wonder if that's worth
- 39:21Speaker 3: That's really take way too much time.
- 39:25Speaker 4: It's like it's like going to rubber sales in the summer.
- 39:27Speaker 4: There's something fun about just going and walking around the
- 39:30Speaker 4: neighborhood rubber and sales, seeing whatever one of the gems,
- 39:32Speaker 4: because I think people want to see what people had
- 39:34Speaker 4: in their house more than anything.
- 39:36Speaker 2: And I think that you got to you gotta temper
- 39:39Speaker 2: your urge to spend money, especially on clothing and stuff.
- 39:42Speaker 2: Because I'm pretty sure that I've gone to the bougie
- 39:44Speaker 2: Goodwill in my neighborhood and bought a sweater for ten
- 39:46Speaker 2: bucks that is one that I previously owned and donated.
- 39:48Speaker 1: Exactly so nice. I bought it twice I look pretty
- 39:53Speaker 1: sure though.
- 39:54Speaker 2: I love pretty sure I did that, Like I really
- 39:56Speaker 2: like this about this is awesome donating at home. It's like,
- 40:00Speaker 2: think I donated this. This is one that I've already had.
- 40:02Speaker 2: It's my own sweater that I just bought back. I
- 40:06Speaker 2: haven't seen that one in a while.
- 40:07Speaker 1: Whoops, that was mine.
- 40:10Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's it's almost time to start thinking about
- 40:12Speaker 2: flipping the wardrobe and putting the sweaters away and bringing
- 40:15Speaker 2: out the shorts and making out golf shirts. Billy's got
- 40:18Speaker 2: the shorts.
