2:33
Speaker 4: only National Weather Service, the one that you see advertised
2:36
Speaker 4: right there during all of the storm freakouts on.
2:39
Speaker 2: Even though my buddies in the meteorological world tell me
2:42
Speaker 2: to have a weather radio, I don't have one.
2:44
Speaker 3: I barely even have a radio. I stream everything. I
2:47
Speaker 3: was gonna say, I don't know if I have one
2:48
Speaker 3: on like I don't.
2:49
Speaker 7: I got a confession to make. I don't have my
2:51
Speaker 7: weather radio anymore either. Okay, once upon a time, you
2:54
Speaker 7: have a transistent blows.
2:55
Speaker 3: My mind part time.
2:56
Speaker 7: And and you know, when I was growing up, we
2:58
Speaker 7: had the radio in the second or the basement desk
3:01
Speaker 7: my dad had. Okay, once upon a time, and I'm
3:04
Speaker 7: here to tell you right now.
3:06
Speaker 3: Playboys hidden underneath that or no, no, just.
3:11
Speaker 7: Eighty four No, just old issues of the Armenian Weekly
3:15
Speaker 7: is when we stay down there. But no, I'll be yeah,
3:19
Speaker 7: exactly exactly, yes, yes there is if you want them,
3:23
Speaker 7: they're sure they're there. No, I don't actually have one anymore,
3:26
Speaker 7: which I'm ashamed to say that, Like if the power
3:28
Speaker 7: goes out, I mean, I'm I'm basically you know, I'm
3:33
Speaker 7: basically tied to whatever power is left on my phone
3:36
Speaker 7: because that's.
3:36
Speaker 3: What we do now.
3:37
Speaker 7: We like to get our local medeorologists on our weather
3:40
Speaker 7: apps and on our things like that. But I notice
3:42
Speaker 7: now also there's a lot of guys on YouTube doing
3:46
Speaker 7: like severe weather lives like that have like obviously weather
3:50
Speaker 7: is a catch all for people that have like hundreds
3:52
Speaker 7: of thousands of views going when they're just following live
3:55
Speaker 7: weather across the country.
3:56
Speaker 3: And it's quite that. It's quite the thing to behold.
3:59
Speaker 3: It's quite a spect.
4:00
Speaker 2: So those of you in Cottage Grove and Stoughton and Oregon,
4:06
Speaker 2: just be.
4:06
Speaker 3: Aware, be alert.
4:07
Speaker 2: Maybe you're just waking up with us, getting ready to
4:08
Speaker 2: start your day. Those of you who in the vestibule
4:12
Speaker 2: waiting to get into the health club, welcome aboard. Glad
4:14
Speaker 2: you're listening to us while you're getting on that your
4:17
Speaker 2: prized elliptical.
4:18
Speaker 3: Waiting to get on the hamster wheel. Run through it all.
4:20
Speaker 2: We got a lot to unpack on this Monday. In
4:22
Speaker 2: the good Land. It is Brewers Cubs night tonight, Round one.
4:27
Speaker 2: Let's get after it. All the stuff that happened before
4:30
Speaker 2: is now prelims. Both teams lost disappointing games yesterday. Brewers
4:35
Speaker 2: left a small village of base runners out there stranded,
4:39
Speaker 2: and the Cubs lost a walk off to the Rivals
4:41
Speaker 2: and a series to the White Sox.
4:43
Speaker 3: We'll dive into that later.
4:44
Speaker 2: First, I need a little heat check for you guys,
4:47
Speaker 2: because I'm wondering where you are in your lives, whether
4:50
Speaker 2: this is an evolution, whether people have this trait and
4:53
Speaker 2: they're locked into it. But I got in my car
4:56
Speaker 2: today to head to the megaplex, and I glanced down
5:00
Speaker 2: at the at the spinometer where it tells you how
5:03
Speaker 2: many miles till empty, and I saw a six and
5:07
Speaker 2: a one, and for a just a fleeting moment, I
5:11
Speaker 2: thought it was six point one miles to empty. Now,
5:13
Speaker 2: I live thirteen miles from the megaplex, thirteen miles east
5:18
Speaker 2: of the of the megaplex, east and northeast of the megaplex,
5:24
Speaker 2: and I thought, oh, man, do that it's a prob
5:28
Speaker 2: But it was actually sixty one. I kind of invented
5:31
Speaker 2: the decimal point in my sleep deprived brain. But that
5:34
Speaker 2: speaks to I don't usually run. I'm not a bottom
5:37
Speaker 2: of the tank guy anymore. And I don't know if
5:39
Speaker 2: that shifted because when I was young, it's yolo and
5:42
Speaker 2: I could see Billy being like, I.
5:43
Speaker 3: Got I got enough gas. I don't need to get gas.
5:45
Speaker 2: Yet we do it on the packers drives all the time.
5:47
Speaker 2: We have to cage, like when's a good time to
5:49
Speaker 2: stop as we're driving up to land. I like to
5:51
Speaker 2: get the heart pumping a little bit so and that's
5:54
Speaker 2: the thing. But I think that shifts when you got
5:56
Speaker 2: a kid, because last thing you want to do when
5:57
Speaker 2: you got a kid in the car is run out
5:59
Speaker 2: of gas. Right So I'm more of a top of
6:01
Speaker 2: the tank driver.
6:01
Speaker 7: Now.
6:02
Speaker 2: Maybe it's an age thing, but I don't usually get
6:05
Speaker 2: below a quarter and.
6:07
Speaker 3: Eight right of a tank right now.
6:09
Speaker 2: But when I saw that, momentarily, I freaked out and
6:12
Speaker 2: I thought I would ask you guys, because there are
6:13
Speaker 2: a lot of people that live on the edge.
6:14
Speaker 3: Yolo.
6:15
Speaker 2: I'm going it all the way until it's buried in
6:17
Speaker 2: the red. And now you have the digital countdown. But
6:19
Speaker 2: it used to be like, well I got when I
6:21
Speaker 2: get to E, I got another fifteen miles.
6:23
Speaker 4: I enjoyed tracking it to know, Like on one of
6:26
Speaker 4: my old cars, I got the ding it fifty miles. Oh,
6:29
Speaker 4: come on, that's three or four days. I got plenty
6:31
Speaker 4: of time to be rolling on that light. And you
6:34
Speaker 4: really aren't that empty until you turn the car on
6:36
Speaker 4: and it keeps the light on. Otherwise you can get
6:39
Speaker 4: a little bit down the road that will dingy in, saying,
6:42
Speaker 4: by the way, they'll thirsty in here. I generally will
6:46
Speaker 4: if I hear the light I'm pulling over first thing
6:49
Speaker 4: being able to see on my ride currently because it's
6:53
Speaker 4: like fifteen twenty miles and that thing's done, that does
6:56
Speaker 4: come up pretty quick. But I'm a little bit more
7:00
Speaker 4: ashamed to say I saw it all the way down
7:02
Speaker 4: to A one a couple of weeks ago in a
7:05
Speaker 4: chase to try to save like twenty cents, getting my
7:08
Speaker 4: arm and sorry, and and it was and that was
7:12
Speaker 4: that was a moment in time where I was thinking,
7:16
Speaker 4: you are in your thirties and you're trying to save
7:20
Speaker 4: thirteen cents on the gas that you're about to do
7:24
Speaker 4: here is that dollar twenty six really gonna change your
7:28
Speaker 4: freaking life? And I had a real rank at myself,
7:31
Speaker 4: which was kind of fun to the point where I
7:34
Speaker 4: don't know that I'll do it again, but it was
7:36
Speaker 4: one fun final moment.
7:37
Speaker 3: That's completely valid scene.
7:39
Speaker 2: I feel seen, yes, because it's like, hey, if we
7:42
Speaker 2: drive to Kenosha, we can save ten cents a gallon
7:44
Speaker 2: and we'll chew it up in the forty miles between.
7:47
Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll roll it right through. Oh, I think there's
7:49
Speaker 4: one over all, Johnson Creek. If we drive to Johnson Creek,
7:52
Speaker 4: we can get it for ten cents less.
7:54
Speaker 3: Yeah.
7:54
Speaker 7: So my grandpa used to do that, And that's a
7:56
Speaker 7: great that's a great reference, Billity, because I had an
7:59
Speaker 7: evolution on that when I was younger and I was
8:01
Speaker 7: first driving, I kind of thought the same way. But
8:03
Speaker 7: I think as you become older, you're kind of looking
8:05
Speaker 7: for as you know, Billy, I'm always like, all right,
8:07
Speaker 7: how can I save a buck here?
8:08
Speaker 3: And that is one way to do it. Like my
8:10
Speaker 3: grandpa would do.
8:11
Speaker 7: This where he'd have like three quarters of a tank,
8:13
Speaker 7: but if gas went down three cents, he would go
8:15
Speaker 7: load up, he would fill up, and he you know,
8:18
Speaker 7: save that value.
8:20
Speaker 3: Now, I'll be honest with you, you.
8:22
Speaker 7: Go to get gased now, and that price will smack
8:24
Speaker 7: you right in the face. I mean, it is an
8:26
Speaker 7: absolute punch in the gut when you see the price
8:29
Speaker 7: you're paying for gas now when you actually see it
8:31
Speaker 7: in front of you. But I was one of those
8:33
Speaker 7: guys a few years ago, like Billy knows, I don't
8:36
Speaker 7: take a lot of risks in life. But you guys
8:39
Speaker 7: know this, But one of the risks I would take
8:41
Speaker 7: is like, once I got a car that would count
8:43
Speaker 7: down the mileage and I just have the light on,
8:45
Speaker 7: then I would play like, Oh, I'm gonna do this.
8:47
Speaker 3: I'm gonna run all the way to the end.
8:48
Speaker 7: Because my thought process was if I like add ten
8:52
Speaker 7: miles of driving before I get gas, over time in
8:56
Speaker 7: my life, I'll have to stop and get gased that
8:58
Speaker 7: many times less you know. Last sure, but I was
9:02
Speaker 7: met with like Dante's Inferno of hell fire from listeners
9:05
Speaker 7: when I broached that subject during the pandemic. They were
9:08
Speaker 7: coming out of the woodworks going crazy, saying, you're gonna
9:11
Speaker 7: damage your engine, You're gonna damage your engine, don't do
9:14
Speaker 7: it armor. And ever since then, I've been kind of
9:16
Speaker 7: worried about it. So when the light goes on, I
9:18
Speaker 7: usually fill up the next convenient quick trip if I
9:22
Speaker 7: can find one. But I used to run it all
9:24
Speaker 7: the way to like two or three miles left if
9:27
Speaker 7: it would show that my y, my information, just to
9:30
Speaker 7: live it on the edge there saw about like, oh,
9:33
Speaker 7: there's like sediment at the bottom of the tank.
9:36
Speaker 3: They told me, yeah, that's not really the.
9:38
Speaker 2: Case of the modern cars and stuff, but it is.
9:40
Speaker 2: And now the smart cars are like, hey, dumbass, you
9:44
Speaker 2: need gas? Could I show you where the stations are?
9:47
Speaker 6: No?
9:47
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like, okay, so I got all the search
9:49
Speaker 4: results right here for you.
9:50
Speaker 3: Don't worry.
9:51
Speaker 2: And then when you're rolling around the highways and byways
9:55
Speaker 2: and it's with you know, you mentioned arm and the
9:58
Speaker 2: pandemic itself, but yeah, pandemic. We're the only cars out there,
10:01
Speaker 2: a lot of you know, rolling into the two video
10:03
Speaker 2: show because we had those special I still have my
10:05
Speaker 2: special little.
10:06
Speaker 3: Armin's got his little badge.
10:09
Speaker 2: I have it, still, a little badge that says I'm
10:12
Speaker 2: a crucial employee.
10:14
Speaker 3: Always funny.
10:15
Speaker 2: But when you're doing that, though, when when you're rolling
10:19
Speaker 2: around now with gas casting an arm and a leg,
10:22
Speaker 2: I can see why you want to put it off.
10:24
Speaker 3: But there's also the flip side.
10:25
Speaker 2: Of that coin is the compulsion that I might as
10:27
Speaker 2: well go get it now because tomorrow it might be
10:29
Speaker 2: fifty cents.
10:30
Speaker 3: More, it might go up at that point. There's a
10:32
Speaker 3: zero sum there. Lock in there.
10:35
Speaker 7: Yeah, it definitely is, although I did it's a prediction market.
10:38
Speaker 4: But yeah, I had my sister ran out of gas
10:43
Speaker 4: on the way to school one time. I remember, a
10:45
Speaker 4: long time ago, and that one will still live kind
10:47
Speaker 4: of rent free in your mind of thinking, I don't
10:50
Speaker 4: I can't allow myself to be the guy that's walking
10:54
Speaker 4: down the road or you know, I can't allow myself
10:57
Speaker 4: to be match Schneidman trying to walk down the freeway
11:00
Speaker 4: trying to go a gal a mile and a half
11:02
Speaker 4: to get a calend of gas to be able to
11:03
Speaker 4: get my Honda Civic off the freeway. Right, that part
11:07
Speaker 4: of it, that trauma and the second hand embarrassment, I
11:10
Speaker 4: think has also changed some of my perspective in my thinking.
11:13
Speaker 3: That is the thing right there. You don't want to
11:15
Speaker 3: be a Schneiman now.
11:16
Speaker 7: The thing is, you know, growing up, running out of
11:19
Speaker 7: gas was one of those kind of irrational fears you had.
11:22
Speaker 7: It was up there with quicksand where like you were
11:24
Speaker 7: sitting there. You used to worry about it, Like I
11:26
Speaker 7: used to think, like, man, that would be scary to
11:28
Speaker 7: run out.
11:28
Speaker 3: Of gas, Like, what's gonna happen to you? Who can get?
11:32
Speaker 7: I just grow up thinking you're gonna just die out there?
11:34
Speaker 7: But you know, you know what You're old mum now
11:36
Speaker 7: know that you can get. But the thing is, I
11:38
Speaker 7: just feel like that was more common with older cars,
11:42
Speaker 7: like running out of gas and things like that. But
11:44
Speaker 7: it's never happened to me. I don't suspect it. I will,
11:47
Speaker 7: but you never know. I guess that is possible. That's
11:49
Speaker 7: hard to believe she ran a gas and the way
11:50
Speaker 7: to school. I mean it's not like you don't live
11:53
Speaker 7: in the middle of like you know, Nowhere's county.
11:56
Speaker 3: I mean that there was no gas station to go to.
11:58
Speaker 3: She ran a gas.
12:00
Speaker 4: Well, we're just talking about where you just don't where
12:02
Speaker 4: you're trying to live it on the edge or hanging out.
12:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're trying to sixteen or seventeen year old girl.
12:07
Speaker 4: A lot of times they're probably not thinking very consciously
12:10
Speaker 4: of trying to find out where I'm gonna be able
12:11
Speaker 4: to go gass up this all one ford Windstar that
12:14
Speaker 4: doesn't have the whole countdown at it.
12:16
Speaker 3: I think that also might have had more.
12:17
Speaker 7: Of a problem for it right, And the countdown thing is,
12:20
Speaker 7: I do remember a guy needing a jump in high school,
12:22
Speaker 7: like with jumper cables after like there was some guy
12:25
Speaker 7: there were some guys driving beaters in high school that.
12:27
Speaker 4: They made Did you get out there and get your
12:29
Speaker 4: get your hands dirty and then figure out how to
12:32
Speaker 4: black to slag right to Well?
12:34
Speaker 7: No, I didn't have a car, so I didn't have
12:36
Speaker 7: jumper cables, but I would have tried. I think we
12:38
Speaker 7: had to learn that in drivers that I think I
12:39
Speaker 7: could have done it. But jeez, you don't wan to
12:41
Speaker 7: mess it up. Now you can just google it. I
12:43
Speaker 7: don't thank beg Then I.
12:44
Speaker 3: Was gonna say YouTube university has you?
12:46
Speaker 4: Now? I think that's taken a lot of the thrill
12:48
Speaker 4: out of that, drew it hands you believing you can
12:50
Speaker 4: do just about anything pretty much.
12:52
Speaker 3: Brain surgery doesn't matter.
12:54
Speaker 2: But it's just all right, are you the kind of
12:55
Speaker 2: person that rides it to the edge, because I'm usually not,
12:58
Speaker 2: But even for me to be under like one hundred
13:01
Speaker 2: miles left, I'm like usually I'm just like, oh well,
13:03
Speaker 2: as well, just put that on the list of stuff
13:04
Speaker 2: at caffeine to that get it done. But it was, Yeah,
13:07
Speaker 2: it was the jolt. And when you're up this early,
13:09
Speaker 2: you're not totally awake yet. It's like six point one miles.
13:13
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get halfway to work and I have to
13:15
Speaker 2: find something, figure something out.
13:16
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, I don't mine definitely doesn't have
13:18
Speaker 4: a decimal point that would that would cause more problems
13:21
Speaker 4: that that would that would allow me to at least
13:25
Speaker 4: one one or two times.
13:26
Speaker 3: Because you also want to see just how big is
13:28
Speaker 3: this tank?
13:29
Speaker 4: How far down do we go until we actually make
13:32
Speaker 4: sure we really loaded up with every decimal point worth
13:36
Speaker 4: of worth of fuel that you can throw in here.
13:38
Speaker 4: But or you can just find as much fuel as
13:40
Speaker 4: you can to gas up and go try to drive
13:42
Speaker 4: up like a lot of Brewers fans apparently. Did I
13:45
Speaker 4: wonder how much that summer road trip costs the fans
13:48
Speaker 4: that cruised up to the Twin Cities or if those
13:50
Speaker 4: were a bunch of transplants, because I mean it was
13:52
Speaker 4: a target field take over there in.
13:54
Speaker 3: Minneapolis this weekend. Yeah, it was.
13:57
Speaker 4: There was a lot of Brewers fans celebrating joining and
14:01
Speaker 4: dominating that border battle.
14:02
Speaker 7: I would think a lot of those two billion are
14:03
Speaker 7: the ones on the western side of the state who
14:05
Speaker 7: have to take the battles all the time from those
14:08
Speaker 7: Minnesota fans all the time. They have to fight that
14:10
Speaker 7: battle on the western front of the state border. That
14:12
Speaker 7: might have made that trip over there, but it was
14:15
Speaker 7: definitely audible. I mean you could really hear the throngs
14:18
Speaker 7: and throngs of Brewer fans indeed, and that was nice
14:20
Speaker 7: to hear. I'll go for so far as saying target
14:23
Speaker 7: Field West. I don't know how you guys feel about that.
14:26
Speaker 4: I like Saturday night when the game is getting closed
14:28
Speaker 4: out and they did the whole paying over to the
14:30
Speaker 4: third base side and the entire lower level is all
14:33
Speaker 4: Brewers fans standing up and chanting.
14:35
Speaker 3: Yeah, that felt like a target Field West. That was
14:37
Speaker 3: a takeover of epic proportion.
14:40
Speaker 7: If you're coming from Milwaukee, that's three hundred and thirty
14:42
Speaker 7: seven miles, which is basically a full tank in most cars,
14:45
Speaker 7: I would say, or maybe a little less.
14:46
Speaker 3: It's a nice crew.
14:47
Speaker 7: So that's a nice That is a nice drive, beautiful
14:49
Speaker 7: part of the state. You're going through all those spots
14:52
Speaker 7: and you know, passing Nassio you know, and I think
14:56
Speaker 7: that so two full tanks. Now these days you're paying
14:58
Speaker 7: a hundred bucks, you're paying hundred and twenty maybe.
15:00
Speaker 2: So interestingly, the Brewers lost, Cubs lost, the entire nl
15:07
Speaker 2: Central lost, Skens got lit up by Philadelphia, the entire
15:12
Speaker 2: NFL Central lost yesterday, and every team still is over
15:15
Speaker 2: five hundred, still the best division in baseball by by
15:18
Speaker 2: far Man, by far and now Brewers Cubs today after
15:22
Speaker 2: the White Sox put it to the Cubs.
15:23
Speaker 3: The White Sox two.
15:24
Speaker 2: Games over five hundred for the first time since twenty
15:27
Speaker 2: twenty two, and Lenny Casper delivers a magnificent call of
15:33
Speaker 2: the game winning home run, where I mean it felt
15:36
Speaker 2: like the White Sox had puked that thing up to
15:38
Speaker 2: epic proportions.
15:39
Speaker 3: Drew giving up a Confordo three run shot in the
15:42
Speaker 3: top of the ninth.
15:43
Speaker 4: They're about to lock it in seven to four, and
15:45
Speaker 4: then they got to go to extras and do it.
15:48
Speaker 4: The Cubs were as hot as anybody possibly could imagine
15:52
Speaker 4: for a couple of weeks, and not even a comeback
15:55
Speaker 4: down to earth. There. They're just facing some teams that
15:57
Speaker 4: are also feeling themselves a little bit. Last week there
16:01
Speaker 4: was a time when you woke up in the six
16:03
Speaker 4: participants in the postseason on the al side, where the Athletics,
16:07
Speaker 4: the Guardians, the Royals, the White Sox and Rays. It
16:12
Speaker 4: was not necessarily the murderer's row of Yankees, Red Sox,
16:16
Speaker 4: and and Tigers that we've come to remember for so often.
16:21
Speaker 4: But there's that team in Chicago. Not only more a commie,
16:25
Speaker 4: as they were calling him the South Side Samurai, he's
16:29
Speaker 4: been smacking balls left and right, and they got a
16:32
Speaker 4: nice young offense there. We saw the first week end
16:34
Speaker 4: of the season, especially on that Sunday, but they give
16:37
Speaker 4: a little bit of a shock to those cubbies.
16:39
Speaker 3: And now the real border battle begins this week.
16:41
Speaker 7: Yeah, how about the White Sox. So you're right, they
16:43
Speaker 7: had turned around, but this is the real border battle.
16:45
Speaker 7: This is the one we've we've pointed to and I
16:47
Speaker 7: was kind of hoping something, Well, it still might happen
16:50
Speaker 7: to PCA. You guys saw the interaction you have with
16:54
Speaker 7: the woman in the stands and stuff like that. I'm like,
16:56
Speaker 7: maybe we can get a game without PCA when he
16:58
Speaker 7: gets suspended for that. The really Sure Billy also mentioned
17:01
Speaker 7: Lennon Casper's call for the socks. We're gonna eat twenty
17:05
Speaker 7: mention that bill, you guys might hear a little bit
17:06
Speaker 7: of that coming here forward on the ball that's.
17:09
Speaker 2: Coming up at after six o'clock game balls and kicks.
17:12
Speaker 2: Get him ready eight seven seven seven nine seven three.
17:15
Speaker 2: We got the uh.
17:16
Speaker 3: Weather on right here the radar.
17:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're you're going through it a little bit there
17:21
Speaker 2: in the six o eight Stoton Sun Prairie, Madison, Oregon. Like,
17:25
Speaker 2: you know, be aware, it's not it's not like tornado
17:28
Speaker 2: season yet. It's not like we're not in that. But
17:30
Speaker 2: it's high winds and hail for those of you. It's
17:32
Speaker 2: quite the wake up for people.
17:34
Speaker 4: Our boy Marcus and i Alwa said, we're swimming laps
17:36
Speaker 4: here at five am.
17:38
Speaker 3: Come on now, Marcus, let's go. That's how you get
17:40
Speaker 3: it on a Monday. That's how you get it. And
17:42
Speaker 3: we're referencing the storm. Yeah. Well's well, I thought he
17:45
Speaker 3: was actually swimming laps eight seven, seven, seven nine. Oh
17:49
Speaker 3: maybe he was. We're not sure, okay, but it is.
17:52
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a a pretty warm day today. It
17:55
Speaker 2: was a great day Saturday back to Earth yesterday and
17:58
Speaker 2: uh it was Saturday. Who that was something that was
18:02
Speaker 2: a perfect weather day on Saturday. Yeah, it was out
18:06
Speaker 2: hanging out.
18:06
Speaker 3: We'll talk about the weekend that was we got.
18:09
Speaker 2: We got disappointed by a game seven, as happens more
18:12
Speaker 2: often than you think. That happened last night. We got
18:16
Speaker 2: plenty of on pack today. We're glad you're hanging out
18:18
Speaker 2: with us. Grabbing yourself your favorite caffeinated beverage, be it
18:21
Speaker 2: warm or cold this morning, and buckle up because you're
18:24
Speaker 2: in the huddle.
18:25
Speaker 3: On Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
18:37
Speaker 2: Drew, Billy and Arman bring it to this little program
18:39
Speaker 2: we call the Huddle Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin on a Monday,
18:43
Speaker 2: in the good line game balls and kicks to the
18:45
Speaker 2: balls Monday.
18:45
Speaker 3: We'll fire that up coming up at six.
18:47
Speaker 2: We got Scott Dolphin at six thirty halftime reporter half
18:51
Speaker 2: in the bat and then our Pala Hunter bombguard will
18:54
Speaker 2: join us talk Brewers and Cubs getting ready for today.
18:58
Speaker 2: Interesting with the Brewers, like they took two out of three,
19:00
Speaker 2: which is.
19:00
Speaker 3: Great, good weekend.
19:02
Speaker 2: It was a good weekend, but was it pitch well
19:06
Speaker 2: one for fourteen runners in scoring present they left.
19:09
Speaker 3: Everyone on the village.
19:10
Speaker 2: That's a good point on the basis all weekend they
19:13
Speaker 2: did not have a good offensive week.
19:14
Speaker 7: It wasn't a great ye it was still.
19:16
Speaker 2: Yesterday, first time in forever, forever. Yeah, and then went
19:20
Speaker 2: one for fourteen with runners in scoring.
19:21
Speaker 7: It's like, yes, there's their best offensive weekend they did.
19:24
Speaker 7: They finally went to get two out of three, which
19:25
Speaker 7: is always the goal.
19:26
Speaker 6: Uh.
19:27
Speaker 7: The pitching was good, but you're right, they were both
19:28
Speaker 7: close wins and they didn't get it, and then they
19:30
Speaker 7: didn't get the runs.
19:30
Speaker 3: Then they lost the chance to sweep. And we've seen
19:32
Speaker 3: that movie before.
19:33
Speaker 2: They did it a lot last year on their way
19:35
Speaker 2: to ninety seven wins, where they'd win the first two
19:37
Speaker 2: and then puke away. They get away game, a chance
19:38
Speaker 2: for a sweep. If you're gonna you know, that's okay. Yeah,
19:41
Speaker 2: series is still crucial. But yesterday they didn't play great defense.
19:47
Speaker 2: They didn't, you know, which is almost.
19:49
Speaker 4: More surprising than anything, right, Like the them not them
19:52
Speaker 4: struggling offensively is not the biggest uh surprise, them not
19:56
Speaker 4: maximizing when an opponent makes a mistake. That's the one
20:01
Speaker 4: where it doesn't feel very Woodpecker esque. And twenty five
20:04
Speaker 4: guys left on base over the three games and headlined
20:07
Speaker 4: by the eleven like you mentioned in yesterday's game, and
20:11
Speaker 4: there were so many chances for them to jump ahead
20:15
Speaker 4: in a game that yesterday did feel like was ripe
20:18
Speaker 4: for the taking. You asked the bullpen to do that much.
20:21
Speaker 4: At some point they're gonna give something back. But man,
20:24
Speaker 4: when the pitching is is gonna dominate just like this,
20:27
Speaker 4: and you're also gonna be able to call up a
20:29
Speaker 4: Coleman crow right in the back end of it, and
20:32
Speaker 4: he gives you what he did on Friday night, Logan
20:35
Speaker 4: Henderson was what he was on Saturday. And this Chad
20:38
Speaker 4: Patrick part where we almost thought it was just an
20:40
Speaker 4: actual bullpen arm but Murph and Hunter said it on
20:44
Speaker 4: Thursday that Murph told them at some point, he's gonna
20:46
Speaker 4: give us some like I didn't realize he was just
20:47
Speaker 4: gonna take the rock and not.
20:49
Speaker 3: Give it back.
20:50
Speaker 4: Latsday night was that was phenomenal for one side to
20:54
Speaker 4: be able to pull a ton of weight while yesterday
21:00
Speaker 4: two games and five days off of the injured list
21:02
Speaker 4: for Yellich, at least you get the big swing yesterday
21:04
Speaker 4: to feel some confidence rolling into the CUB Series. But
21:08
Speaker 4: you thought he was gonna get a bunch of at
21:10
Speaker 4: bats instead, it was just the guys throwing the stone
21:12
Speaker 4: that kept you in and put you in the win
21:13
Speaker 4: column this week.
21:14
Speaker 3: Still, it's great, you know, twenty six and eighteen.
21:16
Speaker 7: The one thing I'll say about this Brewers team and
21:19
Speaker 7: the offense, it's so similar to the early days last
21:22
Speaker 7: year where the offensive awards were there and you're kind
21:24
Speaker 7: of waiting for more and more offensive explosion, more from
21:27
Speaker 7: the buffet, and we we do have that, But they
21:30
Speaker 7: always are in these games expecting to win. It seems like,
21:34
Speaker 7: at least as a fan, I'm always expecting them to win.
21:36
Speaker 7: I mean, there's there seems to be just a cultural
21:38
Speaker 7: expectation that they're going to go in and win games
21:41
Speaker 7: one way or the other. And you know those that
21:44
Speaker 7: was definitely not the case for many years. As we know,
21:46
Speaker 7: we've talked about it. But it would be nice to
21:48
Speaker 7: get a couple more a little more slugging, little more
21:51
Speaker 7: extra base hits to drive in some of these runs
21:54
Speaker 7: when you do have a group. That being said, Billy
21:56
Speaker 7: your point though, I mean Coleman Crow, that was another
21:58
Speaker 7: huge you know, performing from him. Love what you're seeing
22:01
Speaker 7: from Logan Coleman Crow. I don't know about you, guys, Drew,
22:04
Speaker 7: you can maybe to speak to.
22:05
Speaker 3: This reminds me.
22:06
Speaker 7: Little Dave Bush, right, that big hook, the big cheese.
22:09
Speaker 7: He's using the big curveball, so he kind of reminds
22:12
Speaker 7: me of Dave Bush a lot. But love what you're
22:14
Speaker 7: getting from the young arms. And hey, at least his
22:16
Speaker 7: wos my day hit two off the parking lot in
22:19
Speaker 7: the minor leagues this weekend, so that was good to see.
22:21
Speaker 2: I don't remember much about Dave Bush other than interviewing
22:24
Speaker 2: in post game one time. I was looking at him like, guy,
22:26
Speaker 2: looks like John Malkovich. It's like the actor.
22:30
Speaker 4: He was the king of either getting pulled in the
22:31
Speaker 4: third taking a no hit, or into the sixth.
22:34
Speaker 3: From that was all I remember.
22:36
Speaker 7: It was like, how good that big curveball was working
22:38
Speaker 7: that day. It seemed like he had that big, long
22:40
Speaker 7: delivery and he can always throw that kind of that
22:43
Speaker 7: big cheese. But yeah, you're right, Billy.
22:44
Speaker 3: I mean sometimes you can pick up on it somedays.
22:46
Speaker 2: So eighteeven three the Brewers and Cubs tonight, it'll have
22:51
Speaker 2: some juice. Both teams lost, well, I mean lost yesterday.
22:54
Speaker 2: The Cubs lost a series. The life Socks, the Border Battle.
22:58
Speaker 2: It hits different. I think for White Sox Cubs and
23:01
Speaker 2: Mets Yankees and the same city. Yeah, and the underdog
23:04
Speaker 2: won both games, like won both series. The Mets beat
23:07
Speaker 2: the Yankees.
23:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
23:10
Speaker 4: It was the same one for La as the Dodgers
23:12
Speaker 4: fans just dominated and took over the stadium out in Anaheim.
23:16
Speaker 4: But the crosstown rivalry is a lot more fun when
23:20
Speaker 4: the walkoffs happened as well. Former Brutes Iron Taylor had
23:23
Speaker 4: a massive shot in.
23:25
Speaker 3: That Mets Yankees game yesterday.
23:28
Speaker 4: And it does allow you to know, especially like New York,
23:32
Speaker 4: they're all giddy this week as the Knicks are going
23:35
Speaker 4: to tip off her in Game one in the Eastern
23:37
Speaker 4: Conference Finals. You like that there's still a little bit
23:39
Speaker 4: of good in fighting even though they're all going to
23:41
Speaker 4: come together coming up on Tuesday night.
23:43
Speaker 2: Speaking of the Eastern Conference Finals, we know who's playing
23:45
Speaker 2: now because the Calves are going to New York tomorrow
23:48
Speaker 2: night for Game one. Couldn't turn around for the Caves
23:51
Speaker 2: after winning Game seven. Game seven the most electrifying words
23:53
Speaker 2: in sports until it ain't until they get a clunker
23:56
Speaker 2: like last night where Detroit didn't show up at home
23:59
Speaker 2: Nonumber one overall seed. The best team in the regular
24:02
Speaker 2: season in the league takes a seat that was rough.
24:05
Speaker 3: Out, like a light or a factory.
24:07
Speaker 4: I mean, like they h cade Cunningham goes oh of
24:10
Speaker 4: seven from deep, and like they were so reliant on points.
24:14
Speaker 3: In the first half one in the second.
24:16
Speaker 2: Oh my god, at least nobody walked over and tapped
24:19
Speaker 2: up the opponent with ten minutes left.
24:22
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm glad you mentioned that. I'm glad you
24:24
Speaker 3: mentioned that.
24:25
Speaker 4: I can't wait for it in game balls and kicks
24:26
Speaker 4: at all, Like the when when there's the cu other
24:31
Speaker 4: people would be able to let me know how that
24:34
Speaker 4: comparison would go to the one. Michael Jeffrey Jeordan, I've
24:37
Speaker 4: heard for a long time that's it, Billy. I don't
24:39
Speaker 4: I don't know how that one's gonna play on the
24:42
Speaker 4: on the comparisons from twenty three back in the day,
24:45
Speaker 4: I don't know that he was doing that at any
24:47
Speaker 4: particular point in time.
24:48
Speaker 2: But that was a wild That is the flip side
24:51
Speaker 2: of that coin is, wasn't it in the last dance?
24:53
Speaker 2: My memory is foggy, but I seem to remember that
24:55
Speaker 2: when the bulls did rise up and beat the piss
24:58
Speaker 2: and the Pistons just like bailed from the bench.
25:00
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, ninety one Eastern Conference Finals.
25:03
Speaker 7: Here got the Pistols practice fastball, which has been long
25:08
Speaker 7: and I think debated still to this day by Isaiah
25:10
Speaker 7: and McHale and the Bulls whether or not that was
25:13
Speaker 7: truly disrespectful they but they did walk off before the
25:17
Speaker 7: game was over, the starting five for the Pistons, and
25:19
Speaker 7: they it was like they were about to get swept.
25:21
Speaker 3: It was like they all walked off together before the
25:23
Speaker 3: game was over.
25:24
Speaker 7: It was supposedly and in the history of course, because
25:27
Speaker 7: it's a Jordan thing, so disrespectful, but you know that
25:31
Speaker 7: those compare ten minutes ago you're dapping up.
25:33
Speaker 3: It's like the way up their time out, and it's
25:36
Speaker 3: like the way other way where people would be like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
25:39
Speaker 3: That's way to it.
25:41
Speaker 7: And differentially, that's not the killer instinct that we need
25:45
Speaker 7: out of you, Jordan, which.
25:46
Speaker 2: It was just so even if it was like, you know,
25:50
Speaker 2: the last minute or something, but like to do it
25:52
Speaker 2: with halfway through the fourth quarter of the game, that
25:56
Speaker 2: was wild. Yes, disrespectful to your teammates who are still
25:59
Speaker 2: out there playing. And just for sure the Jersey and
26:01
Speaker 2: like you just have never seen that, like no one, everybody.
26:04
Speaker 2: And then you're asking guys like I love it that
26:07
Speaker 2: when they have to go to the panel, it's like,
26:08
Speaker 2: let's ask Dirk Novitzky or Steve Nash and like they're
26:11
Speaker 2: superstars and they never would have crossed that line. The competitors,
26:15
Speaker 2: they just wouldn't wouldn't even have, you know, wouldn't have
26:17
Speaker 2: would not have fathomed it, you know, would not have
26:19
Speaker 2: entered into the equation.
26:21
Speaker 3: Those guys all had tough losses and they all sucked
26:23
Speaker 3: it up. But when people hammered them drew.
26:26
Speaker 4: When those guys went onto the bench and started taking
26:28
Speaker 4: their shoes off during the game, right they started undoing
26:30
Speaker 4: the las and what I mean, there's still ticks on
26:32
Speaker 4: this there's still ticks on the clock. We can't be
26:35
Speaker 4: cashing this in.
26:36
Speaker 2: Uh.
26:36
Speaker 3: Instead, you see it a little bit more.
26:39
Speaker 4: And I do remember Lebron getting getting absolutely lamp based
26:43
Speaker 4: at a couple of different times walking in once they
26:45
Speaker 4: went they're still seconds on the clock and walking into
26:48
Speaker 4: the locker room.
26:49
Speaker 3: That one was.
26:50
Speaker 4: That was a wild one, though, and a real slap
26:53
Speaker 4: down of reality that the San Antonio spurs their time
26:56
Speaker 4: is now and they are they are out of the
26:58
Speaker 4: honest sweep state. I'm gonna check the Spurs off the
27:02
Speaker 4: list on the Yannis Sweepstakes. Coming down the entrance ramp,
27:06
Speaker 4: are the Minnesota Timberwolves back into the conversation for needing
27:10
Speaker 4: and desperately needing a superstar with a killer edge.
27:12
Speaker 7: They do seem like a team that would be right
27:14
Speaker 7: for those discussions, right because contenders but always hitting that
27:18
Speaker 7: kind of ceiling, that wall. So the question is how
27:21
Speaker 7: do you get past it? Well, we better get desperate
27:23
Speaker 7: and go trade for yes. So they seem like the
27:25
Speaker 7: one of those obvious teams. So we'll see what happens there.
27:28
Speaker 7: But we are set up for some good conference finals.
27:31
Speaker 7: Uh here, I think you know two heavyweights now in
27:33
Speaker 7: the West. See if the Spurs can continue what they
27:36
Speaker 7: what they did in the regular season against the Thunder
27:38
Speaker 7: and you know, now, Nick, so.
27:40
Speaker 4: One in the West is Arman, the series that everybody
27:43
Speaker 4: was hoping you'd get all year long. Yes, the Spurs
27:45
Speaker 4: and Thunder, because the Spurs were, really guys, the only
27:48
Speaker 4: team that gave the Thunder any fits throughout the year.
27:51
Speaker 3: Right, what were they.
27:52
Speaker 4: Four and one against them during the regular season, so
27:54
Speaker 4: at least at least there's somebody that you see give
27:57
Speaker 4: them some problems. And then you got the Jalen Williams
28:01
Speaker 4: quote from a couple of months ago after one of
28:04
Speaker 4: the games, said, what what's the problem?
28:06
Speaker 6: What?
28:06
Speaker 4: Why do you guys struggle with the Spurs? Well, he
28:10
Speaker 4: had this guy. Have you seen him? He's like seven
28:13
Speaker 4: to five and he's right there in the middle. So
28:16
Speaker 4: every single time you try to dry the laane, you
28:18
Speaker 4: gotta worry about that alien in the middle of the floor.
28:22
Speaker 4: And he's been having some time. So it's gonna be
28:24
Speaker 4: the new golden child Drew of the NBA going up
28:27
Speaker 4: against their two time two time MVP and maybe the
28:31
Speaker 4: most understated gift giver of all in shake Gildess Alexander yesterday.
28:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, how about that?
28:35
Speaker 4: Would you what would you say if somebody dropped off
28:38
Speaker 4: a nice gift basket with a big old trench coat
28:40
Speaker 4: like that?
28:41
Speaker 3: Uh in it yesterday?
28:44
Speaker 4: All these seven footers try to wear a trench go,
28:46
Speaker 4: he goes, Okay, don't worry, the real gift is coming in.
28:50
Speaker 4: Let's bring the Rolelexes in and everybody can actually start
28:53
Speaker 4: dancing and celebrate.
28:54
Speaker 3: That is funny.
28:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, eight, seven, seven, seven, nine four one ninety seven
28:58
Speaker 2: to three gets you in.
29:00
Speaker 3: So are the Pistons in the Jannis sweepstakes?
29:02
Speaker 6: Now?
29:02
Speaker 2: Do they have to be or they Anice doesn't want
29:06
Speaker 2: to go to Detroit, he doesn't want that side of
29:07
Speaker 2: the lake.
29:07
Speaker 3: I don't think. I yeah, I don't necessarily know.
29:11
Speaker 4: If you're about winning, that would be the team that
29:13
Speaker 4: would then have you would think one of the best
29:16
Speaker 4: paths that you'd be able to go to. But I
29:18
Speaker 4: think right now, Drew, I think he's his eyes are
29:20
Speaker 4: focused squarely on Boston. Like, you get the city and
29:25
Speaker 4: the excitement East coast closer to Grace that you possibly
29:28
Speaker 4: want with obviously international travel gonna be easy in and
29:31
Speaker 4: out of there. You'd get the historic program and a
29:34
Speaker 4: winning culture and a team that is close enough to
29:36
Speaker 4: win while having the disappointment and distaste in their mouth.
29:40
Speaker 4: Now where you don't feel like a full ring chase.
29:44
Speaker 4: Right Like, if there's a swap and a change in
29:46
Speaker 4: Boston and it's Brown and Tatum finally getting broken up,
29:50
Speaker 4: that doesn't make him seem like Katie trying to go
29:53
Speaker 4: to the Warriors. It's oh, this is just a new
29:56
Speaker 4: version of the Celtics. That we're building together. We've spoken
29:58
Speaker 4: about it before.
29:59
Speaker 2: Giannis doesn't have all the ties, and he's not in
30:01
Speaker 2: a product of the AAU system, didn't play college in
30:04
Speaker 2: the States here, so he's a unique bird. But he
30:06
Speaker 2: has friends and one of his friends is Drew Holliday
30:10
Speaker 2: or Holiday. Did he like his experience there? Won a title?
30:12
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think I think it went all right? Did
30:14
Speaker 3: he go all right for him? Did he like it there?
30:16
Speaker 2: What would Drew Holliday tell Yannis as a scouting report
30:19
Speaker 2: for the team. But I still think it's like New
30:21
Speaker 2: York Miami La. Jannest is like, I still think that
30:24
Speaker 2: the siren call of the bigger, biggest market and being
30:28
Speaker 2: able to conquer that and to experience that he's lived
30:31
Speaker 2: the small market. I think he wants the other side
30:33
Speaker 2: of the coin, Miami la uh, And to me, New
30:38
Speaker 2: York just seem more logical for j Honest is that?
30:41
Speaker 7: Do you think because he's looking I mean, not the
30:43
Speaker 7: party is the wrong word, but for more no kind
30:45
Speaker 7: of more more cosmopolitan lifestyle or because he then he
30:50
Speaker 7: makes the reference of like, well, I'll do what my
30:51
Speaker 7: wife wants to do, and I'm, you know, a family man.
30:53
Speaker 3: He worries about that first and likes not being bothered out.
30:56
Speaker 7: So then I wonder about the Miami's in the New
30:58
Speaker 7: York's of the world. Said, New York's always been linked there,
31:02
Speaker 7: you know, to this spot. And then there was the
31:04
Speaker 7: rumor that he wants in East Coast spot. So it's like,
31:06
Speaker 7: whoever you ask right now, everyone's got a different rumbling
31:09
Speaker 7: and sources suggest and everyone's got a different rumor of
31:12
Speaker 7: what team.
31:13
Speaker 3: Also cheap so Texas and Florida.
31:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, and that's that's the thing, Like, it does
31:19
Speaker 4: depend on what is actually important to him. Is it
31:23
Speaker 4: where he lives or is it about winning? Because all
31:27
Speaker 4: we've ever heard is all it matters is about winning.
31:29
Speaker 4: All it matters is about winning. If you choose Miami,
31:32
Speaker 4: then it clearly isn't right because then you're just gonna
31:35
Speaker 4: build the South Beach.
31:36
Speaker 3: Box like that.
31:37
Speaker 4: They would have nothing left for you to really be
31:40
Speaker 4: competing if you gutted them in the Deal or the Knicks,
31:44
Speaker 4: is that one would be about winning. I just don't
31:47
Speaker 4: see New York in all of the exciting, because I
31:50
Speaker 4: also think they're gonna go to the finals. I struggle
31:53
Speaker 4: to see them lose in the Finals and then blow
31:56
Speaker 4: up the best core team that they've had in thirty
32:00
Speaker 4: five years New York.
32:01
Speaker 2: It's like we fell short, let's get rid of cat
32:03
Speaker 2: and let's let's retool this. Let's you know, the urge
32:07
Speaker 2: to do that might be strong, like okay, let's let's
32:09
Speaker 2: oh sure. Now, it's been a long time since the
32:13
Speaker 2: Knicks were that vibrant. They woke up a little bit
32:15
Speaker 2: last year, but it's it would be interesting to see, like,
32:19
Speaker 2: you know, if they don't win, and it depends on
32:21
Speaker 2: how it goes like this. Calves next series, Calves are
32:24
Speaker 2: a tough matchup for the next I think because Brunson
32:27
Speaker 2: and defensively could be you know, could they could They
32:29
Speaker 2: could create some problems. They got, you know, the big dudes,
32:34
Speaker 2: and Spidey is good like he's they're a handful. This
32:37
Speaker 2: could Now how much do they have in the tank?
32:39
Speaker 2: They just played seven. They're probably gonna get smoked tomorrow night.
32:42
Speaker 2: Like you know, I was gonna say I got Cavs
32:44
Speaker 2: game to money line for sure. The ebb and flow
32:47
Speaker 2: of the NBA tells you that it's you're gonna you're
32:49
Speaker 2: gonna have to dig out, and the Calves will have
32:50
Speaker 2: to show versus rust. Bats will have to show some
32:55
Speaker 2: some some grit and some metal. But I just think
32:58
Speaker 2: there's something about the cause I could see them doing
33:00
Speaker 2: it like well, in New York, it's like it's never enough.
33:04
Speaker 3: You can win, but.
33:04
Speaker 4: It's never enough. They also haven't won like that. That's
33:08
Speaker 4: the other thing, right, I mean, they haven't been.
33:09
Speaker 2: The final title that they might be looking to retool
33:12
Speaker 2: and get better.
33:13
Speaker 4: You know that I wouldn't see, but maybe, yeah, maybe,
33:15
Speaker 4: you know, sure maybe, But like I think at that
33:18
Speaker 4: point you got a better chance of the Lakers because
33:20
Speaker 4: Lebron might walk out and then it would be Luca
33:22
Speaker 4: and Gio.
33:23
Speaker 3: Honestly, that'd be a fascinating one.
33:24
Speaker 2: If you're in a market where the Yankees could win,
33:26
Speaker 2: you know, three World Series and still go sign the
33:28
Speaker 2: top picture on the market, like they don't they have.
33:30
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I mean because they're hearing the Knicks. The
33:32
Speaker 4: Knicks are more comparable to the Brewers. I think that
33:35
Speaker 4: they can be lately, but they shouldn't be. And that's
33:38
Speaker 4: we'll see. It's going to be a fascinating buckle up.
33:41
Speaker 4: And we're well according to Jimmy Haslam's timeline, we're about
33:45
Speaker 4: four weeks away. Oh yeah, we're finding out here pretty soon.
33:48
Speaker 4: What's kind of wait, Let's let's get this thing moving.
33:51
Speaker 4: Let's get these offers rolling through, and let's get them
33:53
Speaker 4: on paper.
33:54
Speaker 3: There's we can start picking the best one. There's one rumbling.
33:57
Speaker 2: And I don't think the Bucks would ever do this
33:58
Speaker 2: because I don't know what the pr would be like
34:00
Speaker 2: a stuff. But I did see somebody online say, what
34:03
Speaker 2: if the Bucks just and we didn't find a suitable offer,
34:06
Speaker 2: We're gonna keep you Honus and play this last year
34:10
Speaker 2: and then you maybe trade him at the deadline whatever,
34:11
Speaker 2: but keep him start the season with him under Taylor
34:14
Speaker 2: Jenkins and then make him that off around October first
34:17
Speaker 2: and make him say no to the two.
34:21
Speaker 3: I think that's still likely.
34:23
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think it's likely because I just
34:26
Speaker 2: if you're again, if there's all the smoke that we've
34:28
Speaker 2: seen from the Shamsas and Windy's and stuff, but if
34:30
Speaker 2: this has been ruined for two years and last year,
34:33
Speaker 2: the stuff we've learned about what Doc was running the show.
34:35
Speaker 3: Depends on how hurt them feelings to get out.
34:37
Speaker 2: He wants to get out, but that would be an
34:39
Speaker 2: interesting you know, you want to get nuts. Let's get
34:43
Speaker 2: let's get nuts. That's what we're up to today, all right,
34:45
Speaker 2: eight seven seven seven nine four three. We're giving everybody
34:48
Speaker 2: time to get that first glass caffeine and you that
34:51
Speaker 2: first jolt, and then we fire up game balls and
34:54
Speaker 2: kicks to the balls. After six o'clock, you're in the Huddle,
34:57
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
35:00
Speaker 3: And the Blazer in Gee the number five.
35:03
Speaker 5: How about the credit, Rambi Bloody DeVos. I think Michael,
35:07
Speaker 5: I think the magic Johnson really got him fired up
35:10
Speaker 5: about it.
35:11
Speaker 3: They really did the job well.
35:12
Speaker 4: I think the crowd is cheering here for the bulls
35:14
Speaker 4: right now and the Pistons as they leave the court.
35:16
Speaker 3: I don't quick the caring for the bulls, but.
35:20
Speaker 5: I clicked the creating us for the Pistons as they
35:23
Speaker 5: are headed off as time runs down, customs wasting both
35:27
Speaker 5: time and getting out of here now time I was called.
35:31
Speaker 5: They left the fetiable, the seven of ninch up second
35:34
Speaker 5: to manning. The customs just left.
35:42
Speaker 3: Rolling along.
35:42
Speaker 2: The Monday edition of The Huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin
35:46
Speaker 2: nine twenty Milwaukee ten seventy Madison. Hope everybody in the
35:48
Speaker 2: six oh eight whether the hail storm that woke you
35:51
Speaker 2: up this morning.
35:52
Speaker 3: High winds and hail. Gonna be a little bit dicey today.
35:56
Speaker 2: Spotty, spotty weather, but tempts in the eighties they were
36:00
Speaker 2: they were couching their best.
36:02
Speaker 3: They were couching it yesterday.
36:03
Speaker 2: They're like, well, if the warmfront pushes north, it's gonna
36:06
Speaker 2: be this, but if it doesn't, it'll be this. And
36:09
Speaker 2: I guess a warm front, won.
36:11
Speaker 3: I like that?
36:12
Speaker 4: So that sounds sounds a lot like me on Sunday
36:15
Speaker 4: negotiating the honeyde list. Well, if it rains, I can't,
36:19
Speaker 4: I can't cut the grass. Well then maybe I'll pick
36:22
Speaker 4: up the basement and I'll be able to move those
36:23
Speaker 4: boxes around that you've been asking for three or four months.
36:26
Speaker 3: And then it was really gorgeous, and that we didn't
36:27
Speaker 3: do any of it.
36:28
Speaker 7: That was not like that one A lot better early
36:30
Speaker 7: negotiations you got to make, you know, I said, early
36:32
Speaker 7: negotiations on those honey do lists.
36:34
Speaker 3: Boss Dobler, Good morning, everybody.
36:36
Speaker 7: I didn't think i'd hear from uh Doddler because Gary
36:39
Speaker 7: Mitchell at a homer, but we do here. Do you
36:41
Speaker 7: hear from Dobdler this morning? He's got his early game
36:44
Speaker 7: balling and Mike Witt involved as well, mentioning your point
36:48
Speaker 7: Billy about Minnesota and the honestly.
36:50
Speaker 3: Takes me will be involved. He's there on the YouTube comments.
36:53
Speaker 7: He also says he thinks it's gonna be Houston with
36:55
Speaker 7: same gun and some picks coming back.
36:56
Speaker 3: So the comments coming.
36:58
Speaker 7: In hot and heavy on a Monday morning guys on
37:00
Speaker 7: YouTube x and the talking text line thng.
37:02
Speaker 3: Goon is a fascinating one.
37:03
Speaker 4: If that's the centerpiece of a package, now, I would
37:06
Speaker 4: definitely hunt to try to get Thompson as the centerpiece
37:09
Speaker 4: of the package. I know that's probably wishful and too
37:12
Speaker 4: optimistic of thinking, but Ngoon's a multiple time All Star,
37:15
Speaker 4: Like there are guys that are good pieces that could
37:18
Speaker 4: come back. I mean, obviously they're a long shot, but
37:22
Speaker 4: Drew mentioned Drew Holliday's name earlier. Portland has at least
37:26
Speaker 4: people have put their name into the sweep stakes. I
37:29
Speaker 4: don't actually think that they're going to be a real
37:32
Speaker 4: part of it. But Danny Avia is an All Star
37:34
Speaker 4: player who can score you a twenty a game and
37:36
Speaker 4: could be at least some kind of a focal point,
37:38
Speaker 4: somebody that you could sell in a marketable dude, But
37:41
Speaker 4: you are looking at some legit offers. Houston could give
37:45
Speaker 4: you one, and again they're a team that got bounced
37:48
Speaker 4: out early, way earlier than they had anticipated. That's those
37:53
Speaker 4: are the teams that generally get very anxious, hungry and
37:58
Speaker 4: hunt going and trading for James Harden because that's gonna
38:01
Speaker 4: fix their problems, like the Calves did. He didn't fix
38:04
Speaker 4: the problems last night, Drew. He was slightly a problem.
38:07
Speaker 4: I think it was two of ten. Game seven hard
38:10
Speaker 4: and actually still showed up. However, the Pistons also didn't
38:14
Speaker 4: and that outweighed the That outweighed the scale yesterday and
38:17
Speaker 4: a thirty point drumming, Yeah, that.
38:19
Speaker 3: Was something else.
38:19
Speaker 2: Game seven, get all excited and it's like, oh, it's
38:22
Speaker 2: over in the first quarter.
38:23
Speaker 4: That's where you know Brian No had a lot of
38:25
Speaker 4: haters and a lot of people that didn't like him.
38:27
Speaker 4: On this radio station. He said one thing to me
38:29
Speaker 4: that will always stick with me, and I told him
38:31
Speaker 4: instantly as I heard it, just so you know that
38:34
Speaker 4: you can consider that one stolen Game seven second best
38:37
Speaker 4: two words in all those sports, right behind Super Bowl.
38:40
Speaker 4: I mean, let's be honest that granted now that one
38:43
Speaker 4: didn't live up to the Billy this year.
38:45
Speaker 3: That one might not have lived up to the hype.
38:48
Speaker 4: But for the most part, you're gonna find Drew in
38:50
Speaker 4: a lot of these games.
38:51
Speaker 3: Especially you don't think about it.
38:53
Speaker 4: You think home court advantage, home ice advantage in hockey,
38:56
Speaker 4: We're gonna have one here tonight with Buffalo and Montreal. Well,
39:00
Speaker 4: home icee advantage has been nothing in there. I think
39:02
Speaker 4: the road teams won three or four times. And in basketball,
39:06
Speaker 4: like yesterday, you could feel that pucker factor in Detroit
39:10
Speaker 4: early and once it was clear and obvious that the
39:14
Speaker 4: other team had more juice, that building turns from excited
39:19
Speaker 4: to the toxic real quick.
39:20
Speaker 6: There.
39:21
Speaker 7: That's the thing, you know, Game seven, I think obviously
39:24
Speaker 7: you still want to be at home, but there is
39:25
Speaker 7: a different light level of tightness maybe and pressure when
39:28
Speaker 7: you have expectation in the crowd, and and and that
39:31
Speaker 7: is created sometimes by being at home. And and uh,
39:34
Speaker 7: you saw that happen. You mentioned the NHL game. It's
39:37
Speaker 7: a very good point. But maybe that happened to the Pistons.
39:39
Speaker 7: I don't know, but I could not believe I saw
39:42
Speaker 7: them put up the dud they did last night with
39:44
Speaker 7: everything in front of them. The chance to win it
39:45
Speaker 7: at home, especially the way they came back against the
39:47
Speaker 7: Magic in the first round.
39:48
Speaker 3: But they have a real situation now.
39:50
Speaker 7: Where Okay, they had a really good year, they were
39:52
Speaker 7: able to get out of that first round, but they
39:54
Speaker 7: have the way of expectation now of saying, okay, now
39:57
Speaker 7: you have to figure out what you can do to
39:58
Speaker 7: make it count in the playoffs. And man, they lost
40:01
Speaker 7: those Calves and those terrible white jerseys that they wear
40:04
Speaker 7: look like practice jerseys. I can't stand those jerseys. Worst
40:07
Speaker 7: jerseys in the NBA. They gotta fix that.
40:09
Speaker 3: But whatever they lost those.
40:11
Speaker 4: You prefer the big C logo black one. It's not
40:13
Speaker 4: as much the logo.
40:14
Speaker 3: I don't know what set. They just look boring.
40:16
Speaker 7: I don't know what it looked under like, like basically
40:19
Speaker 7: like a T shirt you get at the shot.
40:20
Speaker 3: But I don't know. Give me the Calves credit.
40:23
Speaker 7: They were facing the questions, the elimination, all those sort
40:26
Speaker 7: of doubters. So now that they have the chance to
40:28
Speaker 7: kind of make their run here in the conference finals,
40:30
Speaker 7: try and make the finals. But man, the way they
40:32
Speaker 7: put up a dud a lot of times, the pisses
40:35
Speaker 7: a lot of times you see teams do that at
40:36
Speaker 7: game six at home with the chance to win, you know,
40:39
Speaker 7: and then go lose.
40:39
Speaker 3: It in game seven. But man at home in game seven,
40:42
Speaker 3: that was great.
40:42
Speaker 4: Yeah, very reminiscent of the Bucks and the fear of
40:45
Speaker 4: the fear of the deer Bucks against the Atlanta Hawks.
40:48
Speaker 3: That game six, that's the one that sticks out in
40:50
Speaker 3: your mind, for they score sixty nine points in that game.
40:53
Speaker 4: Yeah, still has got to be one of the most
40:56
Speaker 4: defilating sports moments. Are you like, oh, sweet, here we go.
41:00
Speaker 4: Great chance to close out the series and win the
41:02
Speaker 4: first one in a decade and the game is over.
41:05
Speaker 4: Didn't even tip off yet.
41:06
Speaker 7: No, And tough for kid because in those are the
41:09
Speaker 7: games you kind of look for your stars to take control.
41:11
Speaker 3: And and have big games, and obviously didn't.
41:13
Speaker 7: So it's gonna stick with him for a while, you know,
41:15
Speaker 7: until you try and rewrite that history.
41:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, dude, overcame a collapse long and stuff.
41:21
Speaker 3: So it's a season. Yeah, there's no question. I'm just saying,
41:25
Speaker 3: people remember games. This is the way that they won
41:27
Speaker 3: Game six. This adds to the letdown. Right, it's a
41:30
Speaker 3: big time.
41:31
Speaker 4: They did this two days ago, right, they went in
41:34
Speaker 4: and just beat the absolute breaks off the calves uh
41:38
Speaker 4: with with Cleveland chance and a man that that again
41:41
Speaker 4: is uh, you give some real metal and some some
41:43
Speaker 4: kudos to Cleveland because there's a lot of teams that
41:45
Speaker 4: do pack it in after you blow a chance to
41:47
