• 0:54
  Speaker 3: No, Locked on Seahawks. Yeah, we're still doing it.
• 0:56

• 0:59
  Speaker 1: All right, you just abbreviated it lo on all right.
• 1:02

• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Good, great to have you with us, man. How you been.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: How's your off season going?
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: It's been great.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: Looking forward to continuing to dive into the OTAs this
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: week though.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they start today here, So are you heading down.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: The next two though? Next two open ones are going
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: to be on Wednesday.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Wednesday and Thursday. Okay, all right, very good? All right,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Well we appreciate you joining us. You know how we
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: do this thing. We want to just do one breakdown
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: of one key Seahawk player for one entire interview. Tell us,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Corbyn Smith, who you have chosen to break down for
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: us today?
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: I've got to go with Byron Murphy. The second. We
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: had a big breakout year last year.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: I think you've got a chance to take another big
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: step forward this season.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Let's start right there with how good he was, because
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: you know, interior defensive linemen don't quite get the accolades
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: of the guys that put up all the sacks and
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: do the dances and everything like that. And so, I
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: mean we heard all year along what a great year
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Byron Murphy was having. He got overlooked on a lot
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: of the postseason accolades. And so let's start with, in
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: your estimation and Corbyn Smith's estimation, just how good was
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Byron Murphy.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: In twenty twenty five for the Seahawks.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: He should have been an All Pro, that's how good
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: he was. I mean, he and it's crazy because Leonard
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: Williams is the one that ended up getting All Pro
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: votes and made the second to our first team All Pro,
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: but he could have made an argument that Byron Murphy
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: deserved it just as much as he did. Those two
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: were absolute game wreckers and seven and a half sacks,
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: so his pass rushing production took off compared to his
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: rookie season where he only had a handful of quarterback
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: hits a partial sack. He was able to completely transform
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: as a pass rusher breakout season there and number one
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: run defense. He was the anchor up front, the ability
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: to dominate with his knee drop technique and take on
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: double teams and just absolutely steinmy the line of scrimmage,
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: penetrating in the backfield to get tackles for loss.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: He did it all.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: He was as dominant as anybody on that number one
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: Ranke scoring defense.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Tell me about the knee drop technique, I mean, did
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: he invent something that others can copy or did he
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: invent something because he has the body to do it.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: You know, it's not the first time that a defender's
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: ever done it, but you don't see very many guys
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: around the league that can do it as proficient as
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: he does, and it's typically that is normally a technique
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: that takes players several years into their careers to really master.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: So for him to be able to do it to
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: the level he's doing.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: That is now going to his third season is very rare,
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: and that just tells you the type of talent that
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: you're dealing with there.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Like I said, there's a handful.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: Of guys in the league that can do that at
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: a high level, but most of those players are four
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: or five, six plus years into the league, and for
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: him to be doing it the way he's doing it
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: at this stage of his career is pretty remarkable.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Is there still a lot of growth here?
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, are we looking at somebody that has a
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: lot higher ceiling that he could still yet reach.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: I think so.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: I think that this he's still got. This is what's crazy.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: With all the facts he had last year, I still
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: think the pass rush. Mike McDonald even talked about this
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: last week that the third down pass rushing and you know,
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: the obvious pass rushing situations, that's where he's still got
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: the most room to improve. I mean, this is a
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: player that a couple of years ago, when they drafted him.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: The more film I watched, they started to think John Randall,
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: and I think he's got that kind of a ceiling
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: as a pass rusher. And John Randall was a ten
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: plus SAT guy plenty times in his career. So I
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: still think that Byron Murphy the second can become that player.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: Maybe this is the year that he gets double digit
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: sacks for the first time.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Corbet Smith is with us. It's our Seahawks one series.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: We launch it today. It's one of our local insiders,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: hard workers, covers the Seahawks for you with his Locked
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: On podcast, and of course they're at Emerald Spectrum as well,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: and we interview them about one key Seahawk player for
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: an entire segment. And so we started today Corbyn Smith
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: on Byron Murphy. And look, I mean, this organization is
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: obviously committed financially to JSN. It looks like that they'll
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: do the same thing to Devin Witherspoon before the season
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: gets underway. Where is the priority on Byron Murphy? When
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: is the priority on Byron Murphy? And what kind of
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: a salary is this guy going to command in the
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: coming years.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: Well, I would think that he is next in line
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: to get a fifty year option picked up because John
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: Schneider has just been on a heater when it comes
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: to those first round picks, getting really good football players
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: with those selections. But they're gonna get that fifty year
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: option picked up next year to make sure they have
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: an extended window to negotiate an extension. And I think
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: you're looking at a guy that's going to be getting
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: twenty three to twenty four twenty five million per year
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: when it's all said and done, and the Seahawks I
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: think will happily write that check for him given the
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: game changer that he is had a premium position at
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: defensive tackle.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Well, thats just said. You might be on a heater,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: but you can't afford everyone. I mean, if all of
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: your first round picks come through, plus a couple of
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: extra ones you got Eman warr in the future, all
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: of these picks that you've nailed, you might not be
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: able to keep them all because of the salary cap.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Why is Byron Murphy have to be one of those
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: that you keep.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Well, I think you look towards the future.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: I mean, Leonard Williams is still a really good player,
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: but he's now going to be going into his twelfth
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: season and he's a free agent after this year. I
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: would expect Seattle's going to try to get another contract
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: done on that front. But that's actually a position where
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: they have a few older players, and it's just again
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: it's a premium position. Yeah, you can't pay everybody, but
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: it would be in my at least my estimation, it
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: would be a massive mistake to let Byron Murphy the
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: second go, and I think the Seahawks feel the same way.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: I think he's going to be one of the guys
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: that they absolutely are going to find a way to
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: pay and keep him because the destructive defensive tackle those
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: are really hard to find and he certainly fits that.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Bill does he have weaknesses, Corbyn.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: I think that as far as weaknesses go, I don't
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: think he has.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Any glaring ones in his game.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: He can still once in a while get bullied off
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: the ball because he's not the biggest defensive tackle, but
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: he's got such a strong lower body that it doesn't
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: happen very often. I think his hand technique has improved
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: a lot since he first came into the league, and
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: just the consistency aspect took a huge step last year.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: So I think if he gets even more consistent this
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: season as a pass rusher. This is a pretty polished
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: football player.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: Mm hmm, yeah, no doubt about it.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: And he and Leonard Williams together, how would you how
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: would you describe that tandem?
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: I think when you look at those two players, they
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: have a lot of similarities even though they're different body types.
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: But I think the big difference here is that position wise,
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Byron Murphy the second is a natural fit playing that
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: nose tackle spot. Leonard Williams doesn't play in there, and
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: he plays the three tech as well. Leonard Williams plays
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: the three tech and also plays base and they've even
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: used him as a two point stance outside linebacker a
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: handful of time. So they have a little different skill
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: set in terms of where they line up along the
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: line in it Jed. That really helps those two when
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: they do stunt games. They're able to do some really
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: fun stuff with the twist stunts with those two, and
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: so I think that they compliment each other in that sense.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: And then, just like you would say, at any.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: Time you have two really good defensive tackles, when one
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: of them is drawing attention, it just opens things up for.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: The other, and both.
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: These guys end up getting a lot of one on
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: ones now because you can't double the team as much
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: because you're worried Wolf I do that, then I'm letting
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: the other guy get a prime opportunity, and so it
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: just puts that much more pressure on opposing offensive line.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: We have a lot of terrific Seahawks analysts here in town,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: and they've done a good job of describing Byron Murphy's
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: career path here the last couple of years. But I
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: don't know if anyone ever had it more nailed than
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: what his own wife did or girlfriend, I'm not sure.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: But when she gave the breakdown of him last off
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: season and told Sea Hawks fans, hey, he's playing too
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: much nose tackle. Not going to ever get a bunch
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: of sacks if he's going to be lining up on
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: the nose. So number one, let's talk about you know,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: his significant others excellent breakdown skills. And then number two,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: that period of time playing so much nose tackle. Are
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: we starting to see benefits of that now or was
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: it holding him back in his first couple of years
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: from being as good as he could possibly be.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it definitely held him back some sack
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: wise his rookie season, and he didn't get as many
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: chances on pass rushing downs to really be able to
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: get after the quarterback pen of the Ears back and
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: this past season they really did a nice job of
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: mixing in more of those three tech opportunities for him.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: And I also think the fact that the run defense
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: was even better than it was the year before it
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: created more obvious pass rushing situation which helped the entire
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: front line, and he might have benefited from that more
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: than anyone. So I would expect we're still going to
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: see him play, you know, quite a bit of nose tackle,
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: but he's gonna for the rest of his career hopefully
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: be a guy that plays a lot of free tech
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: to create those opportunities. But he rushed better from the
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: nose tackle position last year than he did his rookie
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: or two. I think he can still be a player
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: inside that can do a lot of damage. Again, I
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: see some John Randall in his game. I think he
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: is that kind of a player.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: So we're talking about possibly the best defensive tackle in
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: the sport before his career comes to a close, and.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: Maybe as early as this year. Is that what you're
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: telling me.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: I think he's got that high of a ceiling. I do.
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Even though he's a very polished player, I think there's
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: still another level that he can take it.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Wow, incredible, no question about it. And how does he
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: fit in the clubhouse. He seems to have a little
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, he doesn't have to have the spotlight. It
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: seems seems to be a little bit quiet, and yet
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: he just seems to blend with the rest of this group.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: You're in that locker room far more than I am.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: How does Byron Murphy the teammate, get along with everybody
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: on this squad.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he might not be mister, he might not be
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: the most vocal, but he is a guy. He wants
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: what he does on the field speak for itself, and
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: teammates gravitate to him on the field, and you always
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: see him with a smile on his face in the
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: locker room though. I don't think they have any worries
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: about him being a locker room issue. He is one
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: of those guys that he shows up to work, he
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: gets his work in and gets the job done, and
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: his teammates respect him for it.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: What is what was that story this offseason where they
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: you know, they faked a bill on him. He was
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: he was picking up the bill for the defensive lineman
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: and then they faked the amount on the receipt.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Did you see that? Did you see that video?
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: I have actually not seen that video, so that would
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: be first for me. Yeah, it was like thirty You
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: know that he had a whether it was fake or real,
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: the trophy at his wedding, But I don't know about
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: the other story.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, something like it was like three thousand dollars and
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: they had the waiter put an extra zero on there.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: So they brought him the build. It was like thirty
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: grand or something like that. So he had a little
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: bit of a sticker shock. All right, It seems incredible
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: that this guy's just been with us for two years
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: and who knows how much better he's going to get.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: But it was a great first choice.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: Corbin. Why, Byron Murphy, why did that?
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Why, in your opinion, did you have to make him
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: the first guy that we broke down in our series?
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: Because I think he is a superstar in waiting, and
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: I thought that he was maybe the biggest snub that
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: they had in terms of all pro selections last year.
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: So I felt like this is the guy we need
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: to talk about to open this all right?
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: And do you think that this defense has another gear?
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: How much better can the group get under Mike McDonald
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: in year number three?
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: I can see this being a team that gives up
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: under sixteen points per game this year. That's how good
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: I think they can be. I mean, they have almost
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: everybody back, They've added a few key pieces through the
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: draft and free agency. As long as they stay healthy
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: and don't have a lot of injury issues, that's always
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: the big question mark. But I think they have a
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: chance to be utterly dominant on that side of the
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: ball this year.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: All right, last thing for you and then we'll let
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: you go. Do you and Josh Lucas now just hang
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: out together? Do you go on vacations your families together?
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: What is this story between you and Josh Lucas.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think that it's gone to that point. But
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: he just happens to. He happens to be a die
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: hard locked on Seahawks listener.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: He and his son, and he had his son on
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: the show actually as a guest a few years ago,
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: because he reminded me a lot of me when I
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: was nine years old. I'm just spinning out facts and
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: stats and all kinds of stuff about the Seahawks.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: And yeah, they've been awesome listeners.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: And I've been lucky to develop a relationship with the
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: Lucas family.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: So that's great, that's great.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to meet him myself and see his
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Corbyn Smith.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Tattoo that he got.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: I hope not.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: I hope.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: So Corbyn all right, man, Well awesome stuff, Thank you sir.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: We appreciate it, and we'll talk to you again down
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: the line. Sounds good, Thanks all right, Corbyn Smith. You
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: can follow Corbyn at Corbyn Smith NFL. He is a
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Seahawks reporter for Emerald Spectrum and of course host of
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Locked on Seahawks with Rob rang and we appreciate him.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: It jumps on with Ian on Thursdays once a week
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: as well, and so you hear him all the time
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: here on KJAR as well. But we appreciate him starting
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: us off here with our Seahawks one series. And I
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: love the choice in Byron Murphy. I mean, that's just it,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: and that's why you love the choice, Like there are
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: more obvious choices to a person might gravitate toward, you know,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: an emon worry season, and he's just so interesting. Witherspoon
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: was contracts up in the air, JSN the offensive slash
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: defensive Player of the Year.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: And No, it's pretty incredible when you win both.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Sam Darnold.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's some names that leap out at you
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: that you'd think that if you gave somebody the first crack,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: you get to break down anybody you want, there might
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: be a more obvious name out there. But I like
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: that Corbyn's going with Byron Murphy. I think that's an
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: appropriate way to get things started, because he sort of
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: did fall a little bit under the radar a year ago,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: and then right around like the two thirds way through
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: the season, there was sort of this outcry of do
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: people realize how good a season Byron Murphy is having?
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Do people realize that he might be fast becoming the
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: best defensive tackle? And the entire National Football League may
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: have already arrived at that. And so I like that
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: we didn't allow, or Corbyn didn't allow for Byron Murphy
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: in the one series to fly under the radar at all.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: We're going to be a leadoff hitter. We're going to
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: talk about him first. We're going to talk about his
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: value we're gonna put him first and foremost, and the
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: thoughts of Seahawk fans heading into this season and if
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: this team and this defense does take that next step forward.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, you're already world champions and led primarily by
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: your defense. But I think there are a lot of
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: people believe there's another gear or two that Mike McDonald
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: can reach in taking this defense and its climb of excellence.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: And it's really you know, Byron Murphy's about as important
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: a figure to all of that as anybody on this roster.
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I will say just listening to Corbyn talk about
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: him made me really excited to see what he's going
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: to accomplish this year.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you go from a half a sack in your
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: first season to seven in your second season, maybe double
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: digits in this season. And that is not even the
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: element that he most brings to the table for you.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's probably never going to be a sixteen
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: to seventeen sack pass rusher. Those are the guys that
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: get all the attention and get consideration for Defensive Player
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: of the Year. He might not ever get to that stage.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: But in terms of just being an interior, dominant force
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: who you know, takes up the interior, makes plays, maybe
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: not makes plays behind the line of scrimmage. Then that
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: to me is you know that guy's worth his weight
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: in gold football gold anyway. And so a nice way
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: to get us started talking about Byron Murphy.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: The second.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I also want to let you know we're getting started

  Speaker 1: three KJRFM. Time for the Baseball Brunch right here, an
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: affiliate with Reckless and Breakfast Chuck and Ashley with you.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: Here on this Monday morning.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: As yes, we recap the Mariners game not once, but
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: twice during the course of the show. At least we
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: will be for the foreseeable future. They're coming off a
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks. They did win on Sunday
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: by a final score of three to two. A little
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: touch and go there for a little while, as the
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: piggyback certainly made the anti piggyback people angry again yesterday,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: despite excellent inning of work after excellent inning of work
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: from Bryce Miller and even Leuis Castillo, even though he
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: gave up two runs, one of them unearned, and both
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: of them frankly should have been unearned in the contest.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: But the Mariners, who would eventually win the game with
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: a little squibber of a single, they were playing long
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: ball earlier. And what a great game out of the
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: seventh hole for the MS as dom Canzone started the
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: game batting seventh, and he also gave the team the
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: lead at one point.
• 21:30
  Speaker 7: Well runs at a premium today on both sides. The
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: Diamondbacks have tied it up. Kanzo rocket down the right
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: field corner. Tit's ball, Hey, God, have the Mourners take
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: the lead?
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: Bird back?
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Hope runs it Back to back games were not Kenzon?
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: How about that seven now on year Mariner's TV. Aaron
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Goldsmith there on the call, our friend Ryan Healy. Yeah,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: I didn't even hear him, not on that part. Yeah,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: come on now, he was chatting away. Yeah, but you
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: know what he wasn't doing, talking over the pitches.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: Well, that's true, that's true. He let it play out,
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: didn't he.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: I appreciated that dom Canzone had a really good day
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: at the plate, not just the home run to give
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the team the two to one lead, but he also
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: had a base hit single later on in the contest,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: and I thought they made the right decision. I thought
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Dan Wilson made the right decision going with a pinch
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: runner at that point.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: Remember he let Luke Rayley bat at.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: One point even though they had brought in a lefty,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: and he was like, you know what, that's your only lefty.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: That's the only time you can play that card. So
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead with two outs because the Rose
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: Arena just hitting a double play. Nobody on I don't
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: exactly have something cooking. I might need Rayley later in
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: the contest. So we kept Raley in the game, and
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: he actually made pretty decent contact. He was out, yeah,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: but he made pretty decent contact. And then later facing
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: a righty, Canzone gets the hit. And yes, you ran
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: the risk because Arizona only has right handers. You run
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: the risk if you pinch run Roblaze for Canzone, they
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Roblaze might have to face a right hander later in
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: the game.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Egad. And yet I thought that those were both the right.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Decisions, keeping rayleian and then Roblaze obviously a lot faster
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: than Dom. He pinch runs and it ended up not
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: burning you. You didn't score. Roblaze didn't come around to
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: score in that moment in a tie game, but he
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: eventually did come to the plate against a right hander
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: second and third tenth inning with one out, and he
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: got the job done with the infield single.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: So I think that's growth by Dan.
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought I was surprised, especially by him keeping
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: Rayleian And as we were sitting there, five Iron was like,
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: oh God, it would have been great if he kept
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: him in and he hit the home run. But I
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: mean it was still perfectly fine, and to be able
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: to have him later was great, and I was surprised
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: it was not. It was a very Unmarriner's Dan like
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: move that he's seen so far.
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: The Sizon, I.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Think we're seeing growth. I think maybe we're starting to
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: get our arms around it. But we shall see the piggyback.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry to say this to everybody.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: That hates it. It's working. It's worked.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: We've gotten the best out of Luis Castill we've seen
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: all year long. I don't know if the responsibility of
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: sharing a day with another pitcher has locked him in
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: focused him in. I mean, he's thrown ninety eight. Again,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: he was thrown ninety two earlier this year ninety two.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: Now those were in cold weather games, but he was
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: like ninety two to ninety four, and now he's back
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: to ninety six ninety eight. He's got movement on his pitches.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: He seems convicted out there. I don't like that he
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: walked a guy to start his day.
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: On bo and he liked it either.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: The truth of the matter is he had incredibly sloppy
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: defense played by behind him in the game, and it
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: led to both of the runs, not just one of
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: the runs. It led to both of the runs. Otherwise,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: maybe he breezes through the last three or four innings
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: in this contest. As it turns out, they let him
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: pitch the tenth inning, so a ten inning game, Miller
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: pitches five, Castillo pitches five. Both looked really good to great.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: Miller is the one I would describe as great. And
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: so the Piggyback has won two out of three games,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: should have won three if they would have gotten any
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: run support at all back in the first time they
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: tried it. They have a combined dra of one point
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: six to seven the two pitchers, and they have saved
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: the entire bullpen two times in the last two times
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: that they have tried it. I'm sorry if you hate it,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: but that is a complete.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Success right there.
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, massive success.
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: And again that's where I didn't understand all the frustration
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: from people. It was never going to be a permanent solution.
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: It is not a permanent solution. I mean, they're going
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: to the six man rotation right now, so it is
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: giving them flexibility to work with Castillo and Miller and
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: keep them both active and in there. I'm very intrigued
• 26:10
  Speaker 6: to see how Castillo will come out starting the game
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: and on his own. If you know, we're seeing such
• 26:16
  Speaker 6: great things from him in the piggyback situations.
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: I'm wondering if that will continue into the six man rotation.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Well, I see a guy that looks like he could
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: be pretty dominant out of the bullpen if that's what
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: we eventually settle on. I don't think we will settle
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: on a six man rotation, and I don't think we'll
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: do piggyback for the rest of the year. I think
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: a few things have emerged, which we'll talk about in
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: the ABC's that should clarify things for everyone involved, including
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: the fans. Going forward, But I mean it's kind of weird,
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: like I kind of want to see it again now,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: and now we're moving away from it for two times
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: through the rotation, and I think un necessarily so, I
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: mean agree, if you had a week coming up where
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: you didn't have a day off, then I understand why
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: you would want to go back to the six man rotation.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: But you do have a day off on Thursday, it
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: kind of feels like you just are worried it's gonna
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: blow up in your face.
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: Well, and you're going, Yeah, you're going on the road
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: where Castino doesn't pitch as well too, so that's where
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: I would think it would be prime opportunity to use
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: your piggyback again.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Well, they're gonna go six man rotation two times through
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: the rotation here going forward, and maybe that's the last
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: we saw of it.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: Maybe, And if that's the last we saw of it, I.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Think there were more good things about it than bad
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: things about it. Another thing popped up though, during the
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: course of the weekend. Cal Rawley was back in the
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: dugout and he kind of hinted that he's back in
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: the dugout for good. Does that mean he's ready to play.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: The media Horde of Seattle caught up with Cal over
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: the weekend.
• 27:52
  Speaker 8: I mean, I feel great, talk to the guys here
• 27:55
  Speaker 8: already and in evaluations and you know, trying to trying
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: to get rolling as fast as I can, well while
• 28:02
  Speaker 8: being smart make sure that when I do come back,
• 28:05
  Speaker 8: it's it's.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Not gonna, uh you know, hinder me anymore. So it's
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: just kind of playing that game.
• 28:11
  Speaker 9: Was like the puppet and the Dugout lifestart, and just
• 28:13
  Speaker 9: be with the teammates again at death Field. It was great.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: I'm super excited to see everybody, you know. Unfortunately a
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: little later and I wanted to but had to fess
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: some stuff there.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: And it's god.
• 28:25
  Speaker 9: I got to go and watch a good win last
• 28:26
  Speaker 9: night and see the boys and uh, you know, to
• 28:30
  Speaker 9: hang out with dug Out.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: What are you doing today? We just got with the
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: training staff.
• 28:35
  Speaker 9: We talked, uh kind of set up a plan for
• 28:39
  Speaker 9: today tomorrow and just gonna follow it. Nothing really today
• 28:43
  Speaker 9: that's uh too strenuous. Today, you know, do some stuff
• 28:49
  Speaker 9: in the training rooms, rehab and uh, you know, hit
• 28:52
  Speaker 9: it back. You know, tomorrow'll be a lot.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: More about hirings. What has a thank you? What has
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: a day in your life.
• 29:04
  Speaker 9: It's been getting up early, off to the field Arizona
• 29:08
  Speaker 9: and with great group there that's been helping out. So
• 29:13
  Speaker 9: it's been rehabing, rehabbing sport and then uh still training,
• 29:18
  Speaker 9: you know, still pliftic waits and running and trying to.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Stand south of the le more you rehab stuff. So
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: getting home early, you're really knowing to do yourself.
• 29:29
  Speaker 9: Just waiting for the games and go along and uh.
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: You know, just.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: A lot of nothing.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: I guess a whole lot of nothing. Is that what
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: he said cal Rawley over the weekend being back in
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: the dugouts?
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: Yet I know that he can't take that.
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he's when he says, and just in then I'm
• 29:50
  Speaker 6: waiting for the games come on so I can watch
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: the games.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: Rehaving rehaving in a whole lot of nothing.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: I did think it'd be a pretty good sounding board,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: uh for for pictures. But nonetheless, obviously we we're excited
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: to get him back. Sounds like moving in the right direction.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: I just read last week that there was a target
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: date soft target date at CBS Sports of June fifth.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: They are now saying it's pushed back a week to
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: June twelfth, maybe more of a conservative estimate there. But yes,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: he's got to start to actually swinging the bat like
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: he means it, and not just to you know, get
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: things loose. He's got to let it rip here over
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: the course of the next week or so to make
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: sure that it's gonna hold up, the side's gonna hold up.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: So but we're playing our best baseball right now, you know,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: and don't muck that up.
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: Cal, He's like, oh, never mind, I'll stay out long.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: But man, if we can start just you know, playing
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: consistently well. The pitching we've been getting has been fantastic
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: as of late, and then you can get your back
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: player back. All good, all points signing, all points, all
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: signs pointing to good right now for this baseball team.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: So what did we learn kids from today's Baseball Brunch
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: starring dom Canzone and featuring Cal Kyle Roley Jr.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: I like to call him cal Raley. We learned that
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: the piggyback is.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Working, believe it or not. We also learned that Dan
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: may be starting to solve this mysterious lefty righty sub thing.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I think we're seeing some progress in that area. Tonight's
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: going to be a really good test for that, by
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: the way, because you're gonna have an opener who's right handed,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: and then the Mets have a long left, long lefty reliever,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: a long righty reliever, and they've got three lefty arms
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: out of their bullpen that they can use tonight. So
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Dan's going to get tested as to whether or not
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: he's making progress on that front. And then the other
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: thing we learned is the the Diamondbacks weren't hot.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: They just like beating up on the week.
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and we don't do that.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Let's beat up on the week. Yeah, let's do yep.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: All right, So thank you for joining us here for
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: the baseball Brunch coming up next, Well, this is a
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: special edition of Gone Fishing.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: It's the Thunder edition.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. What you were
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: trying to do there, what you were trying to accomplish,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: you might as well just accept it's don fishing time.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: But when it's the Oklahoma City Thunder, when you see
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: SGA and Chad Holmgren putting on their fishing hats, collecting
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: their bait, he putting their sneakers away for another basketball season,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: not winning the championship for a second year.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: It just felt like Seattle was celebrating all week in
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: long the loss of the Thunder.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: You do not have to suffer settle back to back
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: championships from the team you hate the most.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: Good.
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: Go fishing, go fishing, Go fish off a short peer.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, haven't been hard to take. And they've got
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: a chance to be really good for the next decade.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: And uh, I don't know if Wimby. If not for Wimby,
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: they might have rattled off a few of these.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but they kind of got exposed.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Like chet Holmgren, I don't know if he's even a star,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: much less a superstar. He actually he I mean, he
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: acted like scared of Wimby the entire Game seven for sure,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: but really for the entire series. I'm sure he's not
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: used to being the smaller person in any situation any
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: game that he's ever played, but he was dwarfed by Wimby,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: and he played that way too. I think SGA was
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: affected by Wimby's presence. Jalen Williams had one point, you know,
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: he just could not stay healthy throughout the entire post season.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure that SGA's got enough superstars support right there.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: The Wimby era may have begun. San Antonio now looks
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: like the dominant force in the West.
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they definitely did, at least in this series.
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: And it's interesting to I mean just talking about when
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: we were kind of praising the Thunder last week for
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: how they've you know, put this team together and what
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: they've been able to accomplish and how good they could be.
• 34:27
  Speaker 6: I mean, it was just nice to get a little
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: relief this weekend from having to watch what I assumed
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: we were.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: Going to have to watch.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: So I appreciate it.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well San Antonio wins it on Saturday, and the
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Thunder I've gone fishing and so don't have to deal
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: with them anymore. And as far as my Green Jacket team,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: well we kind of needed the Thunder to win, yeh, Yeah,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I kind of needed Sga versus Jalen Williams the rest
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: of the way and a fifty eight point lead.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Now things are a little different.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Spencer and his Spurs faith he drafted Wemby and the
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Aaron Fox way back when to preview the entire NBA playoffs.
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: So I have a fifty eight point lead over Spencer
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Halls and our competition. I do have Stefan Castle remaining,
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: so it gives me a chance, but not very good.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: It looks like Spencer's faith and his friend Mitch is
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: going to pay off for and you know.
• 35:28
  Speaker 5: What, that's good. I'm glad. I'm glad that he didn't
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: have to rely on the thunder to help him win.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Hi fair, he did have a thunder player, he just
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: couldn't stay healthy. Yeah, but Jalen Williams eliminated. Sga got
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: eliminated from my roster.
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: So there we go.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: A fifty eight point lead. I have Castle, he's got
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Wemby and the Aaron Fox the rest of the way.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: And also we sent fishing over the weekend. The Montreal Canadians,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: good run from them. But man, that Carolina team, that's
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: a buzz saw that they've got. My goodness, Yeah, they're
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: real good.
• 36:02
  Speaker 6: And I ended up kind of feeling bad for Montreal
• 36:05
  Speaker 6: for about thirty seconds, and then I was like, Eh,
• 36:07
  Speaker 6: it's fine that Canada doesn't win the Stanley Cup again.
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but I always feel a little bit.
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: Bad when the last Canadian team goes out because I
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: just think, oh, there goes all of the hopes of
• 36:16
  Speaker 6: one country.
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if I've spent much time rooting
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: against Canada like anders Hurst does.
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: No, I definitely don't root against him like that.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Yep, you and I have the.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: Only two players left in our NHL Playoff preview green
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Jacket draft, both Carolina players. I have Andrea Svetchnikoff. You
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: have Seth Jarvis. They both have three goals so far
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs. They've each scored since we last updated this.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: But I've just pulled even for second place with ten.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: I just want to finish second. Okay, yeah, you are
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: up eight goals. I don't think Svetchnikoff's going to score
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: nine more goals than Jarvis and the.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: Stanley Cup fu I did.
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: I would assume not, but you never know.
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: I did notice Svechnikoff had one, I think, in in
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: two games ago, and then Jarvis had won in this
• 37:03
  Speaker 6: last game.
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: I thought, okay, well, there you go, Jarvis. As long
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: as you just have like two more, we're good.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, is it too much to ask for four
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: hat tricks?
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: I don't think so. I think that would make quite
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: the series.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: I would make a great story. Svechnikoff, all right, so
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: there you go. That gives you the update coming up next,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Speaking of Spencer Hawes, He's going to come on our
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: radio program not only to celebrate his friend, celebrate not
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: having to watch the Thunder advance to another NBA Finals,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: but we will also spend some time previewing whether or
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: not the Spurs can get back up to the level
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: of knocking off a Red Hawk Knicks team. Starting this Wednesday,
• 37:43
