• 3:54

• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Dallas in Oxnard, California, on the ocean by a Marriott
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: is still really hot, except there's an ocean breeze here.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: It's just idyllic, is the best word. I wrote it
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: the News Tribune, the Newstribune dot Com. And yesterday after practice,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald and is Prescommerce just began unsolicited about how
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: blessed they we all are and the Seahawks are to
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: be practicing in this in these conditions, blue angels flying overhead,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: the bald eagles that are nesting right next to the field,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: and then full pad yesterday, first real day of football,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: real football, and I'll talk about everything that I saw.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: You'll hear Mike McDonald's say, Nick, even Warry is in
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: an adverse situation.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Coach will explain why he said that and what the
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: second year safety is doing about it. Ten thirty, you
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: were gonna talk offensive line. You're gonna hear from Gray's abel.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: He's working on his way back from being at his
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: family farm all off season.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Dude.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Just that guy is the one hundred percent of one
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: hundred percent you want on your offensive block.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: And that yes he's throwing tires and hang around. Yeah,
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: you have him protect them.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: He was getting up before dawn back in South Dakota
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: this offseason to be on his family farm, working like
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: he always has. It doesn't matter if he's a Super
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Bowl champions drug draft pick in the NFL.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: No, he's the first.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: He's the first person I talked to in the locker
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: room after the Super Bowl win, and he's just actually
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: honestly and genuinely humble, where he's like, oh, yeah, like
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: this is cool. He reminds me of the serbian NBA player.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: I think it's that yoga sh It's the other one
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: who just wanted to go home. It's like, yeah, I
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: want it. I just want to go home. He reminds
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: me of that.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: He also talked to me about Brian Flurry. You'll hear
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: from Gray's able at about ten.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's some good insight.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. The offensive lineman have a real read
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: on offensive coordinators. They I mean they do, and they
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: tend to be the most deep players on the team.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: I'm also gonna tell you what I saw in the
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: one on one pass rush Dril yesterday with full pads
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: the first time, including what Byron Murphy did to the
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: stud left Guard's able. We'll talk about the Mariners their
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: next moves. What are they gonna do? They're gonna be
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: standing Pat probably not. It would be absolutely shocking if
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: they haven't made a move even by Monday morning, when
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: we're back on the show next week. They're gonna make moves,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: perhaps as early as this afternoon. I'll explain that the
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: trade deadline is three pm Monday, four nine, four five
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: one on the Komodad's text sign that we'll read back
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: at eleven thirty. The first question I'm gonna ask you
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: is what Mariners moves do you want right now, as
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: in like an hour ago. Yeah, don't take the field
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: to night against Minnesota until they make these moves. It's
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: what do you want?
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: Gonna be tricky?
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: You want a royal to come up from Tacoma. He's
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: barely been there from Double A, Arkansas. He's just ripping it.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Do you want I was gonna say, do you want
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Resh Snyder gone? But we all know Resh Schneider probably
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: should have been gone a long.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Time ago, right, but it's not happening. It would have happened.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Six and a half million guarante his wy. He's still here.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: They're not eating that, at least not yet. What moves
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: you want to see? Four nine, four or five one
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: on the Tacoma Dads text line, I have a feeling.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: We'll have a couple one have to do with the
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: dugout where hedoes back at eleven thirty. We'll read back
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: to your talkbacks on the iHeartRadio app nine through three
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: KJR or nine three three KJR dot com. There's a
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: red microphone button at the top of our website. Press
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: that leave a voicemail thirty seconds or less and Jesson,
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: we'll play that back at eleven thirty.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Please send your voices. I like playing them.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: She loves it. She'll play every one of them, even
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: when people are singing out of tune and some made ups.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Oh, but they're so good. I love those.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: At eleven o'clock, we're gonna talk to Nick Vannette. He
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: sat down with me yesterday after our show, before or
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: after practice ended. He was really good, talking about how
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: you become a pro for ten years in this business.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: He didn't expect to be in the NFL for now
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: going on eleven years. He talked about his wife. Earzar
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: was his girlfriend when he was here twenty sixteen as
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: a Seahawks third round pick out of Ohio State until
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: twenty nineteen. She was actually a former Miss Idaho met
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: her here while he was here, and I reminded him,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I said, I don't think you were married when they
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: traded you to the Steelers in September of twenty nineteen.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Said no, he got married after that. He credits his
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: wife Urza for being absolutely instrumental in getting him a
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: mental coach and as sports psychologist. And you're gonna hear
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: a few guys on this Sam Donald. I wrote it
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: the News Tribune this morning. Of Sam Donald, he said
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: on a podcast with Chris Long last month. He said
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: he'd never talked about this publicly before. But Sam Donald
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: is going into his Minnesota year, the only year he
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: had with the Vikings in twenty twenty four, after signing
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: from being a backup with the forty nine ers, he
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: worked with a sports psychologist and Sam Donald was telling
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: the story, and I wrote it in the News Tribune.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: It's at the Newstribute dot com right now if you
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: want to read it. But Sam Donald was saying that
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: his sports psychologists saying, you know what, when you're a
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: professonal athlete, especially your point in your career, six seven,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: eight years in, you spend all this time being a
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: pro athlete trying to build a house hammer and nails.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Building a house. Every practice, every off season, every season
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: is adding more nail, hammer and more nails, hammer and
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: more nails of the daily routine. And the sports psychologist
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: told Sam Donald before that Minnesota Viking season in twenty
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: twenty four, it's time to paint your house. You've been
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: hammering away for so long. Step back and enjoy the
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: finished product and realize this house is done, that you
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: belong here. Start painting it and sprucing up and putting
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: the finer touches on it, because you've already made it.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: The house is done. And Donald said that that unlocked
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: something for him mentally. What has Donald done since he
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: was told that by a sports psychologist. He's gone thirty
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: one and six Jess. He took at that Tom Brady
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: and he are the only two quarterbacks to win fourteen
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: or more consecutive regular season games and consecutive seasons. He's
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: won a Super Bowl, He's got a one hundred million
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: dollars con tracked all after the unlocking by the sports psychologist. Well,
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Nick Vinette yesterday told me some of the same things
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: about what a sports psychologist has done for him thanks
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: to his wife encouraging him to do that. They also
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: had a baby girl sixteen months ago. We talked about
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: that and nothing changes your life like a child for
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: the first time, and yeah, talked about that.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: I'm excited for people to listen to this conversation at
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: eleven because it is way beyond football.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Yes, it really is. And I knew Nick Manette is
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: a He was a bachelor. He was twenty three twenty
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: four out of Ohio State. Came in as a big
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: man on campus off of Ohio State. I mean, any
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: big star to get drafted out of Ohio State is
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: a big deal and had been a big deal all
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: through college. So he was a young man that was
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: still a batchelor. Just you can imagine what that was like.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: I remember their dating story too.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I do. And to see him now and
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: how worldly he is and how his priorities have just flipped,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: and how appreciative he is for being in the Ena
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Fell for ten years, even though it's been for eight
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: to nine different teams. We talk about that journey at
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: eleven o'clock. You'll hear that, and again we'll readback your
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: text at eleven thirty or your hear your talkbacks, and
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: then Ian Finesselill joined me before practice eleven forty five
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: before what's he got going on from twelve until three?
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Dave Softy Maler. We'll be back on at three o'clock
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: I think here from the Virginia Maside Clinic Center as well.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: So what else JP Crawford on the disabled list? Is
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: that the next move? We'll see what the Mariners do.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Brendan Donovan has had ample time now in his minor
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: league rehabs. I mean so much that he's slumped and
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: is getting better. He's been bound there so long, so
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: is it time for him to come up? Indications are
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: from the Beat writers down in LA from the Mariners
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: game last night that it could be this weekend or
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: even today before they played the Twins, that Brendan Donovan
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: comes back, and it could be simply just a one
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: for one move of JP Crawford, who's injured again going
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: back on the injured list. Donovan slides into the third
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: baseman spot and Weston Wilson goes back to honestly where
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: he probably needs to be a triple A Tacoma. That
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: could be the easy one for one move, but four
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: nine four five one on the Koma dodge text line,
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: what moves would you like to see instead Sam Donald?
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: I mentioned not just the captain, but the general now
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: of the Seahawks. This was Mike McDonald yesterday talking about
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: his quarterback.
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: I mean, we're all growing, so it's hard to like,
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: it's kind of like you're with him every day. So
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: you know, you don't see your uncle for like.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: A year or two and oh yeah.
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: You've changed, you know, like, but uh, you see Samu
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: every day, so it's kind of like the same guy.
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: But I'll tell you right now, he's being really decisive
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: with the ball. He's taking care of the ball. He's
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: making great decisions, he's playing fast, he's being aggressive when
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: he needs to be. He's doing a lot of great things,
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: great great command. His process is really cool. I think
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: I appreciate about Sam's and a lot of court I mean,
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: but you can't speak for everybody. But it's just every
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: rep is a rep. So if it's like if it's
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: in the quarterback room and they're going over the script,
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: like he treats that rep the same as he does here.
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: If it's practice online or you know, we're in a game,
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: it's just it's all the same. And that's the that's
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: like the mental approach that we want to want all
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: of our guys to take.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: The process. Man, how many times did we hear Mike
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: McDonald talk about the process?
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: I feel like it's pretty prevalent in professional sports.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Yes, but he especially stresses the process over the results.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: And he's saying that Sam Donald masters those processes and
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: he it's I mean, let's face it, justin he this
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: time last year, Sam Donald didn't know who all the
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: names of the cooks were. He didn't know he didn't
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: know the shortcuts to get to the Virginia Mason Athletics
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Center around four or five traffic. He didn't know the
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: ins and outs of the Seahawks organization like he does now.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: And the comfort level between last year and for any
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: player that just gets here, but especially the quarterback and
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: face of the franchise, the comfort level is exponentially higher.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's a moment when your shoulders just relax, right,
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: you know, right.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: And that's where Sam Donald is right now. He knows
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: he's about to get mammothly paid. He has a season
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: even approaching last year, we talked about how he led
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: the NFL and turnovers if he just drops those by
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: a few how much better and more efficient the offense,
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: and he will be. But he knows he's in line
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: for the massive, massive payday. He already got one hundred
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: million dollar deal from the Seahawks. But he's in the
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: second year of those that three year deal. They'll ride
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: that season this year to see how much he's valued
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: and how near the top of the quarterback market he
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: will be next year. He's in the middle of the
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: pack right now.
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: He's so young too, only twenty eight. We feel like
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: he's been in the league forever. And yeah, he's only
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: twenty eight.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: Four years.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just turned twenty.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: Right, Happy birthday, sam My bad on June fifth.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: That is my fault, No, that exactly, And yeah, he's
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: the difference is night and day comfort level wise, which
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: is why I wrote today that he's a general of
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: the offense now, not a captain or commander. The other
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: things I saw yesterday in the first day of padded practice.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: Jadarian Price was the first running back in eleven eleven
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: full pad scrimmaging. He had been behind George Hallani at
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: the start of scrimmages. That's symbolic. I think I think
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: that was the reason why they chose that day for
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: him to be the number one running back to begin
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: the scrimmages. It was in the goal line drop, coming
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: off the goal and going out that he was low
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: loane tailback and took a handoff from Sam Donald on
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: the very first play. I've said it, We've said it again.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: If he's not the lead running back week one, something
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: went wrong between now and then, injury or he has faltered.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: But the crash course in the past game and pass
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: protection and past catching continues every day. For the first
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: round pick Jedari and Price nickimun worry. Yesterday the first
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: time we've seen him out here, watching in tennis shoes,
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: watching from the sidelines. He's on the physically unable to
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Perform list, so he can't perform anything on the field,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: not even conditioning drills until he passes a physical and
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: gets off the pup list, like rookie Devin Eastern the
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: nose tackle did yesterday, but not so Freemon, where he's
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: still on the pupp list. This is when Mike mc
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: donald had to say about Emon Warrior's quote adverse situation.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: He finds himself thin following that ankle surgery he's in.
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: He's in an adverse situation and he's attacking it and
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: that's all you can ask him to do. He's made
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: a lot of progress, which is exciting, and so you know,
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: it's one of these things where you know, you don't
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: want to put a timetable on it because you don't
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: want to limit him or you don't want to you know,
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: you don't want to.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Put him best.
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: But disco rip it every day, you know, And we
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: got great people surrounded by him, and uh, let's go
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: see where we get.
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: But return.
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: So far, he's done a great job and it's not
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: going to be easy, but but he's just the man
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: for the job.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: It was interesting to me, Jessamine. He McDonald felt compelled
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: to explain why he said to me, I don't know
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: when I kept asking on Wednesday or Saturday if if
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: even wore he expected anymore to play in the opener.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: But then when even when he explained it, he kind
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: of went hummada, hummada. What he was trying to say
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: was no, I've been talking to him and others. They
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: just don't want to put pressure on the twenty two
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: year old kid. He's still a twenty two year old kid.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: We forget that, but he's still twenty two and he's
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: anxious to get back and he probably wanted to be
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: back yesterday for the first day of PATS and they
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: put him on the pup list to protect him from himself,
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: and yeah, all of that so he doesn't the coach
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: doesn't want to come out and see, yep, he's playing
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: week one even though they expect that. Yeah, because they
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: don't want to add any more pressure to him.
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And I mean that's I think you said it
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: perfectly when it comes to protecting him from himself. Because
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: I've met Nick, I've talked to him. He obviously made
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: a huge impact on this team at such a young
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: point in his NFL career, and I yeah, that's what
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: that's what they're doing, because he's going to go full force.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: He's just going to.
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: Go out and that's what you want, you know, let
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: the horses out of the gate at the right time.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't need that on July thirty, No, you do,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: not August first, No.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: And I get it, But I think that that's also
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: a learning process. That's I get he's not a rookie anymore,
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: but some rookies, you know, at his age, NFL wise
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: go through and you have to bide your time and
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: actually be patient, and learning patients and watching from the
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: sidelines also teaches you you a lot.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Nick even Worry is younger than a preponderance of the
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: draft picks in this year's draft, a year after he
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: got drafted. I mean, there are twenty three, twenty four
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: to twenty five year olds now coming out of college
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: because of the extra COVID year and transfer rules and
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: six years of eligiment all that stuff. So even worry
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: as just a frame looking at the frame of life
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: and business of the NFL, is still very young. And
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: I think that's what the puplist designation does, is it
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: just protects him from himself.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: Like we've said, yeah, but those are the kind of
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: guys you want on your team, are the ones that need.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: That protection absolutely.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: So what you're saying is we're not worried about his health.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: No, not worried. Another quote adverse situation that Hill both
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: remember he had the high ankle sprain on the fourth
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: play of his NFL career last September. He missed three
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: games because of that injury and then came back, of
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: course and was just off the hookstellar for the defense
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: with Mike McDonald moving them all around. Then he sprains
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: the ankle four days before the Super Bowl and practice
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: down at San Jose State. McDonald said he couldn't sleep
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: that and I think he wasn't going to play in
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: the game. He did play of seventy two defensive snaps,
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: thought it was okay, did intensive rehab both here in
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Seattle and back in South Carolina offseason, and in June
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: said he thought it was okay, and then when he
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: started to get around to come into training camp, he said,
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: this isn't right. And that's why they did the arthur
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: scopic surgery, not invasive arthur scopic surgery, which has a
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: normal recover time of four to six weeks. That surgery
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: was in early July, stands the reason he could be
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: back by the end of August, but they're not going
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: to push him.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: And having that Arthur scopic myself, I can tell you
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: that recovery time is accurate, except I did not have
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: the exceptional care that the.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: Seahawks training staff.
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: Provides for the players there, and they're amazing at it,
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: and I know that he will be absolutely tip top,
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: one hundred percent before they let him on the field.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Up next, let's talk line plague. What I saw yesterday
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: in the offensive defense line pass rush drills, even the
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: running backs against the linebacker pass rush drills. And you'll
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: hear from Gray's Abel, the stud rookie starting from day one,
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: left guard last year and his rookie season, became a
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl champion, then went back to South Dakota and
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: worked on his family farm, you know from Greys Abel.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: Next from Seahawks Training Camp Live on ninety three point
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: three KJRFN. Welcome back to Sinco de Mayo. Portion of
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: the show Jess when McIntire back and studio drag Velly
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: why not? Why not? In July thirty first, Yeah We're back,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Julia was ending today unbelievable. Already in August the Seahawks
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: training camp six practices today. The NFL officials are here.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Craig Rolstad, who lives in Lake Taps and went to
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Lindenberg High School. He's an NFL referee. He's been a
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: head referee for going on his thirteenth season in the league.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: His crew is out here. He's often here because he's here.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: He lives here in Lake Taps. He's offen here at
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks training camps with his crew, and that they
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: were giving a talk to the media this morning. The
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: referees officials were about the changes in the NFL rules.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: There are only two major changes in the NFL rules.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: One is you can have four floaters now on the
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: kickoff return team as blockers. Remember they a couple of
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: years ago rechanged all the kickoff rules and some of
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: them were how many guys you can have in the
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: second line as blockers vanguards ahead of the kickoff returners.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: Used to be three guys. Now you can have a four.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: That's one minor rule change. And another one is you
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: can a player can be ejected for something that he
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: isn't penalized for. If officials miss something on the field,
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: the New York or officiating department can be the eye
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: in the sky and if it shows it on replay
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: and they see it, they can buzz down and actually
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: eject the player for something he wasn't penalized for. That's
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: a change this year. And in the rules explanation of
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: the change, they used Josh Job and the Super Bowl
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: punching a Patriots player away from the ball and nobody
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: saw it and so didn't get it, did not get penalized.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: But now there's a rule that if even if the
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: officials miss it, New York can buzz down and the
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: eject the guy for that. Those are the two major
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: rule changes.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: New York can buzz down for a lot of things.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're yeah, they're kind of the all encompassing lords
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: of the game. Now. Yesterday, in the first day of pads,
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: they went offensive and defensive line pass rest drills. You'll
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: hear what I saw there yesterday, But first I want
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: you to hear from Gray's abel. I talked to him
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: about his off season briefly a couple days ago, and
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: he went back to South Dakota. It was family farm
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: and it was just like he was fourteen years old again,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: not that he was a Super Bowl champion and first
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: round pick.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: I don't even know if he knows he's a Superworld champion.
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: Maybe that ring coming down off of the ceiling was
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: his first indication.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: Here South Dakota's Gray's able here on ninety three point
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: three KJR.
• 23:11
  Speaker 7: Graysable super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks left guard tell us,
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: first of all, what your off season was like as
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: a Super Bowl champion?
• 23:19
  Speaker 8: Leag No, it's just just another off season. Got to
• 23:23
  Speaker 8: enjoy it, hanging out with family. And then this summer
• 23:26
  Speaker 8: it was it was working out in the mornings, going
• 23:28
  Speaker 8: up to a farm the rest of the day, and
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: getting home, eating supper and go to sleep. So we're
• 23:34
  Speaker 8: able to find a little bit of golf in there
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: and have some fun. Don't get me wrong, but it
• 23:38
  Speaker 8: was good of short lived and luckily and now we're
• 23:40
  Speaker 8: back to football.
• 23:41
  Speaker 7: What do you do on the fire your family farm
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: at this point.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: In your life.
• 23:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah, so we're mainly a road crop operation, and so
• 23:49
  Speaker 8: a lot of a lot of the summer was spent
• 23:51
  Speaker 8: scouting fields and figuring out what we got to do
• 23:54
  Speaker 8: moving forward. And then I was able to to start
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: tearing out some fence and fixing up an old farmyard
• 24:01
  Speaker 8: to feed some cows there throughout the winter. So it's
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: one of those deals that kept me busy but also
• 24:07
  Speaker 8: kept me out of trouble.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: The code is always keep you busy.
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: Second year.
• 24:12
  Speaker 7: I talk to guys all the time. With the learning
• 24:14
  Speaker 7: curve from the first year, the second year is so steep.
• 24:17
  Speaker 7: What have you noticed about your training camp two and
• 24:21
  Speaker 7: your advantage?
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: You know, I have compared it last year this time.
• 24:23
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I would say you're just understanding the pace and
• 24:27
  Speaker 8: the speed and the tempo of everything, and understanding how
• 24:31
  Speaker 8: our offense works, and understanding that the offense a little
• 24:35
  Speaker 8: bit better and being more knowledgeable.
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: The game of football. Because it's year one.
• 24:38
  Speaker 8: You come in, you're just swimming from the jump and
• 24:41
  Speaker 8: you're just trying to keep your head above water.
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: Year two you have more of an understanding.
• 24:44
  Speaker 8: Now it's like, all right, now, let's start figuring out
• 24:47
  Speaker 8: the whys to the offense, the why we do this,
• 24:50
  Speaker 8: why we're calling it this way, why we're running to
• 24:52
  Speaker 8: that certain formations or boundaries and stuff. And now it's
• 24:58
  Speaker 8: now it's completely understand in the offense. So hopefully there's
• 25:02
  Speaker 8: a there's a jump in knowledge that allows you to
• 25:05
  Speaker 8: have a jump in your game as well, and that's
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: what we're really looking for here too.
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: How different is that? Why with Brian Flurry now is
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: the offensive corner? What have you noticed anything different?
• 25:14
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's extremely smart and it's one of those deals
• 25:18
  Speaker 8: you don't really understand it right in the moment, and
• 25:21
  Speaker 8: then when it happens, then it kind of clicks and.
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: Is like, all right, that's that's why we're doing that.
• 25:25
  Speaker 8: So he is a guy that kind of stays one
• 25:28
  Speaker 8: step ahead of everything and allows us to play fast
• 25:31
  Speaker 8: and free and enjoy the game of football.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: That's graz'able. In his second season as the first round
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: draft pick last year out of you like Dakota Stagia
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: from Pierre, South Dakota. I'm talking about disabling, dismantling fences
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: and rebuilding him in the off season on a farm
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: in South Dakota's family's farm. Not too many NFL players
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: do that after winning a Super Bowl. Yeah.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: Well, the other thing that I noticed too, he said,
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: it keeps me out of trouble, right, like idle hands,
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: that whole thing. Yes, I definitely can attest to that.
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: I was so lucky to have played a fall sport
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: when I was in college. When I played volleyball, it
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: was in the fall. So you get there a month
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: before everyone else.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Right, you get the student.
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: All you have.
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: To do is work out. All you have to do
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: is play your sport, work out, be healthy. And it
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: is not the same for others.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Our son did the same thing, or son and daughter
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: both did college athletics some fall seasons and same thing.
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you're like, you got the by the
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: time spring comes around, you kind of got the lay
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: of the land. You're like, won't make that mistake, right,
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: guy sleeping on the quad?
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: Okay, yesterday, grades Abel was one on one with Byron
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: Murphy in a featured matchup of the offensive and defensive
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: line pass restrials. And to let you know how not
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: Biron Murphy's not just strong, I mean Bidron Murphy shoved
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: Christian Haynes back into the back for like five yards
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: off his feet on one of the reps. But when
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: he went against Gray's able, he showed his speed and
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: at three hundred and six pounds, Byron Murphy had a
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: swim move that just Gray's. Abel is renowned for being
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: fast off the ball, and the swim move that Byron
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: Murphy put on him, Zabel couldn't keep up with. Murphy
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: went right around him. The rep was almost over before
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: it began. Really really telling, that's how good it. That's
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: what makes Bier Murphy so good. He's strong and he's
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: so fast. The other featured match that we were watching
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: was Riley Mills. You heard from him this week on
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: our show, and now he's fully healthy and I'm telling
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: you he's been the Taka camp in the first week
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: plus because how quick he is off the ball and
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: playing multiple positions nose tackle, three technique tackle, back out
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: at end. He was going one on one with Anthony Bradford,
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: the starting right guard, and the very first snap it
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: was a rip move inside by Riley Mills, who beat
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Anthony Bradford. The second year guy who missed almost all
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: of last season, beat the veterans starter Bradford. So then
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: they typically go back to back, two reps in a row,
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: back to back. So in the second rep, Mills tried
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: to spin move to the outside, and Bradford, who's not
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: known for his lateral quickness, was quick enough to stay
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: with Mills and stay on him and picked him back
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: up again after the spin and was repelling. That was
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: a really really good rep for an offensive lineman be
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: that fast, And then the coaches like that so much
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: that they had him do a third time, which you
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: rarely see them go three in a row.
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: That's good brow because I don't think that people know
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: that much about what actually happens out at training camps,
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: So thank you.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the most real football there is. Once they
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: get pads on is the passers drills. It's like must
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: see TV. You gotta go watch them because it's the
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: most real they get. They don't tackle anyone of the ground,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: so this is the most real football. So they go
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: a third rep between Riley Mills and Anthony Bradford and
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: it's a draw. They both came to a standstill. Nobody
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: really gained any real advantage, but it just spoke to
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Riley Mills and his ability on the defense a line,
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: what he can add to them depth wise and rotation wise,
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: just by being healthy and not coming off in ACL
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: tear and reconstructive surgery and driving twenty two hours to
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: the Orange Bowl in the back of an RV with
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: his Great Dame Dog.
• 29:09
  Speaker 9: If you guys missed that interview, go back to the
• 29:12
  Speaker 9: podcast page because it was not only is he so
• 29:16
  Speaker 9: athletic and we have yet to see what's to come
• 29:18
  Speaker 9: up his career due to that injury, but he's also
• 29:21
  Speaker 9: an awesome guy.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: Go to the Greg Bell podcast page.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: Yes, thank you, that was from I think wednesday we
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: heard that. The other thing I noticed yesterday in the
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: pastor shows is George Hallani. Remember I told you the
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: reason that he's stuck here as an undrafted rookie running
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: back from Boise State was his pass blocking, and as
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: a rookie running back, especially a undrafted one, that's how
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: you make your mark, and he was exquisite at it yesterday,
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: picking up defensive backs and linebackers. Of course, Mike McDonald
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: loves to send those guys on blitzes, and Halani was
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: up to the task every time, one of the only
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: times in this camp, in fact, on eleven on eleven
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: through five days of practices, well, the many times the
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: offense has picked up a blitz it was Halani. Every
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: other the blitzeres have killed the offensive line so far
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: in camp, they have not picked him up at all.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Witherspoon the Anthony Bell who's been playing for Nicki Man
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: worry in his role of the hybrid linebacker from a
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: safety position. They cannot block. They aren't even picking up guys,
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: let alone not blocking them on the blitzes. But the
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: one time the offense did I saw in the first
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: five days, it was George Hawanee and that's why he's
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: still in their plans at running back. Even though Jedarian
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Price is the first round pick. The captain Mike Benton
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: is sitting down next to me, he's normally the cracking.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Of course usually at this preseason he's a little bit
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: a month or two from now he being a cracking
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: preseason game.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: And you really had to dig down deep here. For
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: the guests on this show, you're just walking by Wan
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: not put your neck sucker jump on the head said,
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: I'm good.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Buddy, I appreciate this. How are you well? Well? Thank you?
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: What's that You've gone a cracking training camps off? What's
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: different about an NFL training camp from besides it's on
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: ice and indo, yes, I got a listeners. You don't
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: have to text us that. But what do you notice
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: differently or the same or what strikes you well.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, I mean listen, I've always followed the NFL
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: since I was a kid. I love the sport, I
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: love watching it, I love consuming it just like anybody
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: else here. But I think work wise, it's different when
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: you can kind of get into the weeds here. Because
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: I've done the NHL thing now for five straight years
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: going on six at this point, I mean, there's a
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: lot of similarities. I think when you can get you know,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: a majority of not all your roster out there, and
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: you know they're saying that we have a lot of hope,
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: we have a lot of promise, guys are looking pretty good,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: but you still can't really, I think, you know, gain
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: a true measurement of where a player is or where
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: a strategy is until you really put it not just
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: in the preseason, but into regular season as well. So
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, I thought yesterday being out here, you know,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: it was the first day with guys on pads, and
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: then they kind of said it was like the first
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: day of school because previously when you go through the
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: first few days of camp it kind of feels like
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: mini camp still where there's not any paths. Yeah, and
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: there's not there. There's not a lot of contact, and
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: you're taking a really really essential element out of the
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: game that can really, I think give a true indication
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: of how big a player is, how strong a player is,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: how far along a player is.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: As well.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: The other day I think was a step in the
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: right direction, but we're not going to really I think
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: see a true indication of how much rest or lack
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: thereof from a championship, and you know, the aftermath of it,
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: the afric little of it is going to really I
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: think put all this into context until week one, and
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: I think for me the big question here is Nicki
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: min Wari. We talked about this earlier. Our you know,
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: entire lineup top to bottom has talked about this year.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: But you know, I think for the.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: Most part, seeing a refresh Rashid Shahed he kind of
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: had to jump on the move in the moving train
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: last year. That's a promising sign. Sam Darnold looking a
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: lot more comfortable, I think, and even Mike McDonald a
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: little more outgoing here this year. There's there from I think,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: from just like an outside perspective, there's I think a
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: stronger level of comfort and ease with them in that
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: he knows his system, he knows how these guys respond.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: There's less variables and less moving parts, so there's more
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: of a chance for him to kind of feel relaxed,
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: especially given this environment in front of the hard knock cameras.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: You know, hard knocks cameras. That that's a big, big
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: difference here. So I mean, all in all, I just
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: kind of put this into context with you know, a
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Seahawks camp for the first few days, are you gonna
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: get a lot out of the first few days? The
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: answer is no, But you know, step in the right direction,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: I think so far with with what we're seeing so far.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, then out there and pads again, the ramps up
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: in product. First day of school, right, yeah, second day
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: they we'll see how they go out today. Maybe not
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: as full go as yesterday. Biging to McDonald, he talked
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: about Myron Murphy and he was asked about Murphy's progress.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: Murphy's going into his third year now, he's still got
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: two years left on his deal. This is Mike McDonald
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: talking about the defensive tax.
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: Really expect Murph to have a spike in productivity, rush
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: in the passer. He's earned it, but he does it
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: every day, you know. So it's great work for our
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: offensive line.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: It's great.
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: He's in a great he's in a great spot. I
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: think he's been very intentional on his own development and
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: then how he's like invested his time, how he's how
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: he's handled his body, where he's trained, who he surrounds
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: himself with. There's this no wasted like, there's no wasted time,
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: you know. It's just he's very he's very deliberate on
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: how he goes about his business. And it's a great
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: example for the guys on how like you know, nothing's
• 34:37
  Speaker 5: going to change overnight, but having that deliberate process, and
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: we talk about stacking winds moment moment moment by moment mindset.
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: I mean, those things come to life.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: With Byron, we're expecting more pass rust, productivity. He had
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: seven sacks last year. That was what Mike McDonald was
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: saying about Byron Murphy this year. Also he talked about
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: hard knocks and actually the hard Knocks. A NFL films
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: in HBO put out a trailer, a teaser about a
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: from a team meeting that they had. I think it
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: might have been the first day of camp. This is
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald addressing his team in the main team meeting
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: room about how he wants to approach hard knocks.
• 35:15
  Speaker 6: Seriaey Man, we're back.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: Cameras, all right, hard knocks.
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: Well, I'm thinking about it is like this. We talked
• 35:23
  Speaker 6: about it in the spring. But this is a gift
• 35:24
  Speaker 6: from the football gods.
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: Yes, okay, I'm one of the most awkward guys in
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: the history of America.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: I used to worry all the time about, well, what
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: are they gonna think of me? And no, I don't
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: want to say their own thing.
• 35:36
  Speaker 6: True, it doesn't matter Okay.
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: All I'm worried about is creating basketball team can possibly create. Okay,
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: and I don't great And I want to make sure
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: that we're us all the time.
• 35:44
  Speaker 6: That's all I care about.
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: It's a gift because it reminds us to be us
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: every time that you kind of stray away.
• 35:50
  Speaker 6: I want the world to see you, guys, see what
• 35:52
  Speaker 6: you get? What makes you guys?
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: You you know, don't you How How good can we
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: get at what we do?
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: That's that's camp.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: It's awesome. Mike McDonald, nine year old, first time head coach,
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: just turned thirty nine. It is really really resonates in
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: the locker room when he is self depreciating it.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: And paraphrasing Sam Donald, did he not say, watch Hard Knocks,
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald may be the gift that keeps on giving?
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: Did he not say that? Yeah? Yes, the nation's going
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: to see a different side of Mike McDonald. But yes,
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: he has evolved to the point where he's self deprecating.
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: He rips on himself saying he's the most awkward guy
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: in America. And the locker room loves that. They really do.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: And it's part of the culture that McDonald is building here.
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: With the Seahawks centering year three? What can he do
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: as an encore second year, first time head coach. Already
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: won the Super Bowl, He's trying to perfect the process.
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: I'm next the Mariners. What are their next moves? It's
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: not I saw the Seattle Times Artica Sam's rock bottom,
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: not statistically rock bottom. They have been five games under
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: five hundred a couple times in April. But man, they're
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: in and now three games behind. They're even trailing the
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: trash Cans in the America League West. What do the
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Mariners need to do? Like right now? What do you
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: want them see them do? We'll talk about the moves
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: the Mariners are gonna make, probably between now and Monday
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: and the trade deadline on ninety three point three. KJRFM,
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: Welcome back, Happy Friday. Do you happy weekend? A big
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Seafair weekend. The Blue Angels will be buzzing over the
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: Seahawks practice here in about an hour or so. I'm
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: out of the Virginia Mason Athletic Senator jess Went McIntyre
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: becke at Elliott Bay Studios at downtown Seattle, six day
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: of Seahawks training camp. If you missed my brief chat
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: with Gray's Abel, the Super Bowl champion left guard. You
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: can hear that on the podcast page nine through three,
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: KGr dot comic Greg Belt Show later today or nine,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: or in the iHeartRadio app eleven o'clock. You're here, Nick
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: Venette coming up, really interesting story sucking. Thank you, Jessin.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: It was a good talk with the Dick Vannette about
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: well beyond football. Yesterday you'll hear that at eleven o'clock.
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: The Mariners come home after a two to five road
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: trip to Texas and the Los Angeles Dodgers. No one
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: expected them to win the Dodgers series, but they lost
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: three of four to the team they were trying to
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: eclipse in the America League West, the Texas Rangers. Same
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: old story. Beside the one game in Los Angeles when
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: they hit five home runs, a season high, and all
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: their runs scored, all seven runs scored by home runs.
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: It's beside that, it's been the same hole. It's situational hitting.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: It's mostly not hitting the ball at all. It's the handedness.
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: It's the Dodgers bringing in a left handed reliever and
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: the Mariners countering with right handed rob ref Schneider. In
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: the ending that's what happened last night. What would you
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: as a fan? I asked at the top of the
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: show to come a dodge text line fort nine four
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: or five to one? What move do you want right now?
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, like within the hour before we're off the
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: air at noon, there could be a JP Crawford to
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: the injured list. He's banged up again. He was on
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: the injured list earlier this season. He hasn't played third
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: base or shortstop in a while. Colt Emerson has struggled
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: at shortstop as maybe rookies would do. Is not so
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: much fielding, but struggled at the plate. Cole Young is
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: still the MVP of this team in my mind. And
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: we could talk about Jerry Depoto's comments of well, the
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: best acquisitions we can make are our own guys just
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: performing to their capabilities. But it's now August and cal
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: Rawley's still hitting in the one hundreds, and Julio Rodriguez
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: has plummeted since he was in the two seventies with
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: slug and Josh Naylor is hitting occasionally. He had a
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: nice opposite field hit last night. When he gets to
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: the opposite field, he's a much more effective hitter. Than
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: the deadpool guy he's been for large stretch this season.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: Brendan Donovan has a chance to come back, So that
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: could be the most basic and incremental direct move we
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: may see before the Twin Series starts tonight or during
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: the Twin Series would be to put JP Crawford on
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: the injured list and for Brendan Donovan to come back
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: and resume third base duties. Donovan's been done at the
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: minor leagues for an extended time now coming back from
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: his injury. He hasn't played in a couple of months.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: And then you keep Colt Emerson at short and put
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: Donovan at third. There it does not seem like they're
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: gonna dfa Rob Repschneider. I mean, he could beat he
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: could bet thirty and because they're paying him six and
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: a half million dollars, it seems he's gonna stay on
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: the roster. And then you're as long as he's on
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: the roster, you're gonna see the handedness moves like we
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: saw last night. Because the iPads and the analytics say
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: it not the eyes doesn't matter what I say. What
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: move do you want to see? Four nine, four five
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: one do you want to see? Reschneider gone, well, that's
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: just rearranging chairs on the deck of the Titanic. Right
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: handed bat the absolutely need, yes, but what's the move
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: You got to give up something to get a right
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: handed bat that would have the impact this team needs.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: You need like four right handed bats for the impact
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: of this team needs. Yeah, I hear Mason Miller, but jessmon,
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: they don't need a closer, They really don't. And to
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: give up the capital it would take the prospects and
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: starters it would take to give up to get the
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: Mason Miller, who drows one hundred and four or five
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: miles an hour as one of the premier dominant closers
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: in the league. And to shuffle Andreas Munoz is a
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: rolling right now to change his role. Nah, I wouldn't
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: spend my top prospects in maybe George Kirby and or
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Emerson Hancock for that. You got a closer. He's righted himself.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: They have. Yeah, they need to go hitting, don't you think? Yes?
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: And what are you willing to give up for the
• 41:51
  Speaker 4: thing that I think is most troublesome when it comes
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: to the Mariner fanhood is that they have those in
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: that line up who are just not performing.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: They have it, they're just not performing.
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: And and then you see these glimpses dom canzone the
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: other night, obviously, and then you see Julio have a pop.
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: So it's really hard to look up and down this
• 42:16
  Speaker 4: lineup and say what are you willing to give up
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: and what are you going to get Who's going to
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: be a game changer. And there's just such a limited
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: market out there for what we think. Obviously, the right
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: hand of batting is what we think the target should be,
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: but it's a limited market.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: Randy of Rose Arena is an interesting case because he's
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: in an unexpiring contract. But he's your only productive right
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: handed hitter. He's not your only slug hitter productive for
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: the bulk of the season consistently. Yeah, I know he's
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: infuriating at times in the field. This team's problem is hitting. Yes,
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: they've had defensive problem, but this team problem's hitting. I'm
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: not sure you're can to afford to give up Rosereena
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: unless you're white Flag and the rest of the season.
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: And they're not gonna do that.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, not.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: In They're two and a half back in a division
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: that just blows there's no reason. I mean it does.
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: You just said it so perfectly.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: They're five or six games where five or six game
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: winning streak from being in first place. Again, that's how
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: bad the division is. Four nine four five one on
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: the Komodage Tech sign what do you want to see?
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Like right now pronto before you eat? Launch please and

  Speaker 2: Really great conversation about being a modern sports athlete on
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: and off the field. Nick Vinette returning to the Seahawks
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: for a second stint is on next on ninety three
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: point three KJRFM.
• 44:31
  Speaker 10: It's a I usually portray that to the young guys,
• 44:35
  Speaker 10: to show them like, hey, this is what it looks
• 44:36
  Speaker 10: like to show up to be a pro, to take
• 44:38
  Speaker 10: care of business and just to focus on the controllables.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: What of all those stops, what stood out? Was there
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: one trade or or signing or or was there one
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: transition that was better than another that stuck out that
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: you did it right and one that maybe you learned
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: you could have done better, and all those stops and transitions.
• 44:58
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I think after I left Pittsburgh, when I went
• 45:01
  Speaker 10: to Denver, at that point, I just think I was
• 45:03
  Speaker 10: in my mind a little too much because I just
• 45:07
  Speaker 10: I was trying to figure out and analyze, Okay, why
• 45:10
  Speaker 10: why is this decision being made? Why why is this happening?
• 45:13
  Speaker 10: And instead of just controlling or focusing on what I
• 45:16
  Speaker 10: can control and how I can show up my best
• 45:18
  Speaker 10: version and so that year I, you know, I hired
• 45:20
  Speaker 10: a mental mindset coach just to focus on, you know, okay,
• 45:24
  Speaker 10: what are all the things that I can control versus
• 45:26
  Speaker 10: all the things that I that are out of my
• 45:28
  Speaker 10: control and just not putting energy towards that. And I
• 45:32
  Speaker 10: think from that point on, like I think my my
• 45:34
  Speaker 10: game became more consistent, and I was just putting more
• 45:39
  Speaker 10: energy towards the things that are gonna it's gonna benefit
• 45:42
  Speaker 10: me and pouring to myself rather than you know, the
• 45:45
  Speaker 10: decisions that you know, the front office of the people
• 45:48
  Speaker 10: upstairs make that you know, they don't always make sense,
• 45:50
  Speaker 10: but that's not our jobs to to figure out why
• 45:53
  Speaker 10: or you know, what the case is. So and so
• 45:56
  Speaker 10: I just kind of made that shift, like you know what,
• 45:58
  Speaker 10: I'm just gonna show up and like this is what
• 46:00
  Speaker 10: makes me show up as my best version. That's what
• 46:02
  Speaker 10: I'm going to focus on. Just do that every day.
• 46:05
  Speaker 10: And I think that's really what has you know, led
• 46:08
  Speaker 10: me to go into year eleven, you know now and
• 46:11
  Speaker 10: how you know, I think it's extending my career in
• 46:13
  Speaker 10: a way, just to show up more as a professional.
• 46:15
  Speaker 10: And I, you know, I always learned new things along
• 46:18
  Speaker 10: the way, people that I talked to or just new methods,
• 46:22
  Speaker 10: new recovery things that I like to implement it too,
• 46:24
  Speaker 10: my routine, and so I just I think that's really
• 46:28
  Speaker 10: helped me, you know, extend my career. And you know,
• 46:32
  Speaker 10: it's it's allowed teams to feel like they can depend
• 46:34
  Speaker 10: on me.
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: We all can see the physical part of what you do.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: You know, your height, weight and your forty time, and
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: we see what you do on the field. But what
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: got you into a mental coach? Who steered you there
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: or what made you realize that's a part of your
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: life and game you wanted to work on. My wife, actually,
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: my wife did. She's U was your girlfriend when you
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: were here. Yes, you married after you left, right, Yeah,
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: we married.
• 46:55
  Speaker 10: In twenty two, twenty two. We just celebrated our fourth anniversary.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: E graduated a few weeks former Miss Idaho. I believe.
• 47:02
  Speaker 10: Yes, No, she's, uh, you know, she's been a very
• 47:07
  Speaker 10: good influence in my life. You know, she's because she
• 47:12
  Speaker 10: she kind of did these things earlier in her life
• 47:15
  Speaker 10: before we met each other, and she could tell that
• 47:18
  Speaker 10: I was like in my head and she just she
• 47:19
  Speaker 10: always like knew what I need and how I could
• 47:22
  Speaker 10: benefit and so she you know, we all knew that,
• 47:26
  Speaker 10: you know, Russell Wilson when he was here, like he
• 47:27
  Speaker 10: had a mindset coach. And so she's like, honestly, you should,
• 47:31
  Speaker 10: you should try to reach out to his guy, and uh,
• 47:33
  Speaker 10: you know, see what you're gonna do. And so I
• 47:34
  Speaker 10: reached out to him. Yes, and then I but I
• 47:38
  Speaker 10: met he, I was with somebody else that worked along
• 47:42
  Speaker 10: with him, and so I worked with him for a
• 47:44
  Speaker 10: couple of years, and you know, it just it made
• 47:48
  Speaker 10: me go into the play, into the day just with
• 47:51
  Speaker 10: a more positive mindset, a more like optimistic mindset instead
• 47:57
  Speaker 10: of like you know they say, like counting. Instead of
• 48:01
  Speaker 10: counting the reps, I'm making the reps count. You know,
• 48:03
  Speaker 10: that's the saying. I just kind of take that my
• 48:06
  Speaker 10: mentality just through everything throughout the day off the field,
• 48:09
  Speaker 10: on the field. But man, my wife's been, she's been,
• 48:12
  Speaker 10: she's really she's been a very pivotabal She's played a
• 48:15
  Speaker 10: very pivotal role in you know, my my journey in
• 48:19
  Speaker 10: my career. And I don't know if I'd be here
• 48:22
  Speaker 10: honestly if it wasn't for here, for her, like steering
• 48:25
  Speaker 10: me in the right directions.
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: She's the biggest catcher life then exactly.
• 48:28
  Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, that's good ones, but she's the best.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: You mentioned the physical part in the recovery part. Do
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: you do the hyperbaric chamber or what have you adopted
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: as you've gone on your.
• 48:39
  Speaker 10: Yes, yeah, I did get a hyperbaric chamber my own
• 48:43
  Speaker 10: at my house. It's back in California right now, but
• 48:46
  Speaker 10: you know, in the off season, I do that. I
• 48:48
  Speaker 10: got a sauna, I got a cold, I got a
• 48:52
  Speaker 10: red light panel. You know, I just you know, and
• 48:56
  Speaker 10: I do have some pt people out there, some dry
• 48:58
  Speaker 10: needle people, chiroprosers. I mean, these are all things that
• 49:01
  Speaker 10: I necessarily wasn't doing when I was here. But it's
• 49:04
  Speaker 10: just because I just wasn't. I didn't really know about that.
• 49:07
  Speaker 10: I wasn't really introduced to these resources. So I did
• 49:10
  Speaker 10: along the way. I just as I became aware of
• 49:12
  Speaker 10: all these things, and you know, you tried out, you
• 49:14
  Speaker 10: learn like, okay, this works, this doesn't. You just you
• 49:17
  Speaker 10: kind of zero in on, you know, the things that
• 49:20
  Speaker 10: work for you, and you know, those are the things
• 49:22
  Speaker 10: that I just adapted, and you know, I think it's
• 49:26
  Speaker 10: allowed my body to feel the way it does and
• 49:28
  Speaker 10: you know, feeling like I could do this for you
• 49:30
  Speaker 10: know a few more years.
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: Which which of those during between games weeks do you do?
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: What's that the hyperbreak chamber, the needles or the Yeah,
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: I tried, I try to.
• 49:40
  Speaker 10: You know, you get the benefit by doing it like
• 49:41
  Speaker 10: two to three times a week. I tried to do
• 49:43
  Speaker 10: that two to three times a week. The needles. I
• 49:47
  Speaker 10: like doing that on Mondays, like the day after the game.
• 49:50
  Speaker 10: Whether it's like needles massages so like they do a
• 49:53
  Speaker 10: Monday massage, Friday massage, two days before practice the first
• 49:58
  Speaker 10: prize and two days before the game.
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 50:00
  Speaker 10: Just you know, sometimes you get a little source. It's
• 50:02
  Speaker 10: you an ideal to get two days of recovery before
• 50:04
  Speaker 10: you get back out there.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: You're you're one of the only ones here that knows
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: what it was under the other regime and under Pete
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: Carroll and even what ten years ago, what the Seahawks
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: are like? What is it now? What's different? What's changed?
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: N Schnyder's still here. You mentioned some of the front
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: office people. They're familiar faces to you, but now you
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: have a new coach and a new coaching step and
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: a new offense. What's changed as far as the climate,
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: the tone, the tenor, and the culture.
• 50:29
  Speaker 10: Here, you know, I think, you know, having the pleasure
• 50:32
  Speaker 10: to be repeat it was just it was incredible. You know,
• 50:34
  Speaker 10: Pete's very unique in the way that he uh, how
• 50:37
  Speaker 10: he operates, you know, he just operates with high energy.
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 50:41
  Speaker 10: It just you felt like when every time he came
• 50:43
  Speaker 10: into work, You're like, I'm gonna have so much fun today.
• 50:45
  Speaker 10: I don't know what it's going to look like, but
• 50:46
  Speaker 10: I know I'm gonna have fun, and we're gonna have
• 50:49
  Speaker 10: fun together collectively. Just how you're in the TVs was
• 50:53
  Speaker 10: just so energetic. You just you never felt like you
• 50:55
  Speaker 10: were walking on eggshells at all with him, And I
• 50:59
  Speaker 10: still feel like that's still true with this regime. But
• 51:03
  Speaker 10: I think there's also a bigger emphasis on just you know,
• 51:08
  Speaker 10: how to like fine tune, like the little details that
• 51:13
  Speaker 10: make a great team. And then you know, I did
• 51:17
  Speaker 10: notice like the other day, like something that's been new
• 51:20
  Speaker 10: to me. I have experiences in anywhere event where you know,
• 51:23
  Speaker 10: one night, instead of having a team meeting, we he
• 51:25
  Speaker 10: decided that he wanted to break guys out into I
• 51:28
  Speaker 10: think like twelve thirteen, fourteen groups of you know, like
• 51:31
  Speaker 10: seven eight people, and you know they'd be coaching each group,
• 51:35
  Speaker 10: and he would give the coaches, like, you know, a
• 51:37
  Speaker 10: few questions and then you know, give the guys a chance,
• 51:40
  Speaker 10: each guy to answer the question. It's just a way
• 51:42
  Speaker 10: of getting to know each other. Just what kind of
• 51:44
  Speaker 10: questions Uh not football, you know, I mean like some
• 51:48
  Speaker 10: of the questions be like, Okay, what does it look
• 51:49
  Speaker 10: like in the room as you know, what does twelve
• 51:52
  Speaker 10: as one look.
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: Like to you?
• 51:53
  Speaker 10: You know, like some of the sayings and the slogans
• 51:56
  Speaker 10: that you know he likes to use here.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 51:59
  Speaker 10: Then I was also like, hey, what was your favorite
• 52:01
  Speaker 10: memory over the summer? You know, and describe what that was.
• 52:04
  Speaker 10: And so it's like you're getting to learn guys, you know,
• 52:08
  Speaker 10: what they do like off the field, and you know,
• 52:12
  Speaker 10: you're just opening up and it's like it's just I
• 52:14
  Speaker 10: think it just naturally creates this connection with guys that
• 52:17
  Speaker 10: maybe you normally, like I probably normally wouldn't talk to
• 52:21
  Speaker 10: someone on the defensive side just because we don't spend
• 52:23
  Speaker 10: a whole lot of time with each other the other day.
• 52:25
  Speaker 10: You know, we're always like doing offense, you know, they're
• 52:28
  Speaker 10: doing their defense stuff. And but I think it's good
• 52:31
  Speaker 10: to be able to you know, cross the lines and
• 52:34
  Speaker 10: you know, get to know those guys. It's just when
• 52:36
  Speaker 10: you have a create like a tighter locker room. You know,
• 52:38
  Speaker 10: that's that's what creates championship winning teams because you're gonna
• 52:43
  Speaker 10: do it in practice on the field. Off the field,
• 52:46
  Speaker 10: I mean, it's you know, and you generally have trust
• 52:49
  Speaker 10: and love for your brother like that's what makes a difference.
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: And it's you.
• 52:53
  Speaker 10: Know, I think that kind of gets lost in the
• 52:54
  Speaker 10: NFL a little bit just because it's such a business
• 52:56
  Speaker 10: and you got guys come in and out, and you know,
• 52:58
  Speaker 10: sometimes it becomes about the mind and you know, what's
• 53:01
  Speaker 10: best for their family situations and whatnot. There's a lot
• 53:04
  Speaker 10: of factors that go into it. But man, if you
• 53:06
  Speaker 10: are able to get that team to really buy into
• 53:09
  Speaker 10: each other and buy into the culture, I mean, that's
• 53:12
  Speaker 10: what separates because I mean there's always this a good
• 53:14
  Speaker 10: talent every team, you know, that's the I think that's
• 53:16
  Speaker 10: the biggest separator. So that's something I've not experienced, not
• 53:20
  Speaker 10: even with Pete, not with anywhere else. I Ben, and
• 53:22
  Speaker 10: I think that's that was pretty cool. I really thought
• 53:24
  Speaker 10: that was really cool and unique about what they do here.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: You're listening to Nick Vannatti's back in a second stint
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: for the Seahawks, the tight end here at Seahawks training camp.
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: He's been away for seven years and been all over
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: the NFL globe, and he's back in Seattle where it
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: all began in twenty sixteen as a draft pick. You've
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: had so many offensive coordinators, so many tight ends coaches.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Now you have an offensive coordinator who is a tight
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: ends coach and Brian Fleury his new job from the
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: San Francisco forty nine ers. I heard in spring that
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: they were harder. He was harder on the tight ends
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: because he knows them and drills them more. Is that true?
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: And then also, what have you noticed about Brian Fleury
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: that may be different or unique to all the offenses
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: you've been in.
• 54:01
  Speaker 10: Uh, you know, I do notice that there he does,
• 54:05
  Speaker 10: you know, he features the tight end a little bit.
• 54:07
  Speaker 10: And some of these installs that we've you know, granted
• 54:08
  Speaker 10: it's only my fifth day, fifth practice, since being here
• 54:12
  Speaker 10: for like a week, you know, since getting.
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: Here from a week ago.
• 54:15
  Speaker 10: But you know, from what I've gathered is that a
• 54:17
  Speaker 10: lot of the installs that we put in, like pass plays,
• 54:19
  Speaker 10: it really does feature the tight end. Obviously the ball,
• 54:23
  Speaker 10: like the ball doesn't get a spread around. You know,
• 54:24
  Speaker 10: we have great players like in different spots. But I
• 54:28
  Speaker 10: think that's cool that, you know, you know, it's always
• 54:30
  Speaker 10: cool when you have somebody that's you know, comes from
• 54:32
  Speaker 10: the tight end room, uh kind of has that allegiance,
• 54:36
  Speaker 10: you know, to the tight ends to be able to
• 54:38
  Speaker 10: step up in the OC position. And you know, I
• 54:41
  Speaker 10: think you know, you watch San France, that's they lean
• 54:43
  Speaker 10: heavily on their tight ends and you know, use check
• 54:46
  Speaker 10: us the full back and I think you're going to
• 54:48
  Speaker 10: see a similar thing here. And but you know, you
• 54:51
  Speaker 10: can't do that if you don't have guys that are dependable,
• 54:54
  Speaker 10: that you can trust, that are willingly and able to
• 54:57
  Speaker 10: in capable of, you know, handling the responsibility. So that's
• 55:00
  Speaker 10: first and foremost. But I you know, what I've noticed
• 55:02
  Speaker 10: about this tid end group is that, I mean there's
• 55:05
  Speaker 10: some dogs in this room. Like there's some dogs, and
• 55:07
  Speaker 10: so I think, you know, that's something to get really
• 55:11
  Speaker 10: excited about. And it's awesome to be a part of that.
• 55:14
  Speaker 10: We're gonna see you at full back.
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: I'll do whatever they want me to lie that you
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: know I've done it before. You know, that's who used
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: you on all your stops, who use you most of
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: full back? Denver? Was it or would I'm trying to
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: guess when the offenses back then, it was more of
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: a why the Saints maybe, which.
• 55:34
  Speaker 6: No, we we had a full man.
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 55:37
  Speaker 10: It was very rare, Yeah, very rare that they put
• 55:40
  Speaker 10: me as a change act. But sometimes just like by formations,
• 55:44
  Speaker 10: you can kind of end up in a like in
• 55:46
  Speaker 10: the backfield and like handle those responsibilities. Yeah, I know,
• 55:50
  Speaker 10: there's like my second thirty here, Like there's a couple
• 55:53
  Speaker 10: of packages where like they put me in the eye
• 55:54
  Speaker 10: and just you know, we would run like a will
• 55:57
  Speaker 10: play and I'd be ISO on a will right the box,
• 56:00
  Speaker 10: and so I've done that before. You know, If that
• 56:05
  Speaker 10: that's what they want me to do, then hell yeah,
• 56:07
  Speaker 10: I'm gonna do it.
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: Nick Vernette played six games last year for the rival
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: now rival Los Angeles Rams. What was Sean McVay like
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: as an offensive mind? Of all the wines you've come.
• 56:16
  Speaker 10: Across, I mean, he's brilliant, He's it was awesome to
• 56:18
  Speaker 10: could experience him. You know, I think he's one of
• 56:21
  Speaker 10: those guys where like he's had so much success, and
• 56:25
  Speaker 10: I think he's like a trendsetter in a way. You know,
• 56:27
  Speaker 10: when I got there, you know, they're running very heavily
• 56:30
  Speaker 10: three tight ends sets and they were having a lot
• 56:33
  Speaker 10: of success with it. So I think I think that
• 56:36
  Speaker 10: kind of created this influence. You know, I think in
• 56:39
  Speaker 10: the draft, I think it was like, what twenty two
• 56:40
  Speaker 10: tight ends draft in the draft. I mean that's you know,
• 56:43
  Speaker 10: that's that's a high number compared to most drafts, And
• 56:45
  Speaker 10: so I think teams are like starting to load up
• 56:47
  Speaker 10: on guys and potentially looking at what the Rams did
• 56:50
  Speaker 10: and be like, hey, you know, we can get two
• 56:52
  Speaker 10: tight ends three tight ends on the field really create
• 56:54
  Speaker 10: some mismatches and both the run game in the past game.
• 56:58
  Speaker 10: But man, he's just uh, he's he's a brilliant mind,
• 57:01
  Speaker 10: and you know, just being able to spend time with him,
• 57:05
  Speaker 10: like I I definitely gained a lot of like good
• 57:09
  Speaker 10: information and nuggets just by how he operates and just
• 57:12
  Speaker 10: his leadership and just how he controls the team, and
• 57:15
  Speaker 10: it was it was pretty special to be there.
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: Nick Benet your eleventh year, now, when you got out
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: of Ohio State, the Seahawks drafty, what was your goal
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: to play, what would you what were you hoping to play?
• 57:24
  Speaker 10: You know, I've always told people this that like when
• 57:27
  Speaker 10: I got here, I never really foresaw the future or
• 57:30
  Speaker 10: even had a goal of like how long I wanted
• 57:32
  Speaker 10: to play. And maybe maybe I was wrong to not
• 57:35
  Speaker 10: have that, uh, but you know, I never thought that
• 57:39
  Speaker 10: i'd be going to you know, here being here now.
• 57:41
  Speaker 10: I never thought i'd be going in year eleven. You know,
• 57:43
  Speaker 10: you just I guess you just don't know how you know,
• 57:46
  Speaker 10: what direction this can take you. And sometimes like unfortunates
• 57:50
  Speaker 10: can happen, whether it be injury or just you know,
• 57:52
  Speaker 10: something's happened where like you know, careers get shut, careers
• 57:55
  Speaker 10: get cut short a lot. But I'm I mean, you know,
• 58:00
  Speaker 10: regardless of how my career has gone, like just to
• 58:02
  Speaker 10: be able to go to New Year eleven and I
• 58:03
  Speaker 10: feel like it's an accomplishment and just to be able
• 58:05
  Speaker 10: to say that I played double digit years is you know,
• 58:08
  Speaker 10: I'm proud of that, and I'm proud of the work
• 58:10
  Speaker 10: that I put in to uh to continue this journey,
• 58:13
  Speaker 10: and I'm really happy that's led me back to where
• 58:15
  Speaker 10: I started. And I'm just excited to be a part
• 58:17
  Speaker 10: of this. And you know, I'm just I'm fired up
• 58:21
  Speaker 10: about it.
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: What's next? It would be storybook for you to end
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: your career here, would you like multiple years and ended
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: in Seattle? What's your media goal? Longer term goal? What
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: do you think? I mean?
• 58:30
  Speaker 10: Like I said, you know, I really I really invest
• 58:32
  Speaker 10: a lot on my body and I've I've been very
• 58:34
  Speaker 10: fortunate injury wise, you know, just to be very healthy
• 58:37
  Speaker 10: throughout my career, and you know, I think I can
• 58:39
  Speaker 10: easily squeeze a couple more out, you know, after this year.
• 58:42
  Speaker 10: And yeah, that was always my goal. I've always had
• 58:44
  Speaker 10: that vision of you know, I would love to end
• 58:46
  Speaker 10: it where I started it. You know, it's it's been
• 58:49
  Speaker 10: a fun kind of wild journey, you know, going a
• 58:53
  Speaker 10: lot of places. But to be able to you know,
• 58:56
  Speaker 10: end it where you know, where it all started would
• 58:58
  Speaker 10: be something special. But you know, like it's like I said,
• 59:01
  Speaker 10: you know, you never know where that's going to take
• 59:03
  Speaker 10: you or what could happen. And I just try to focus,
• 59:05
  Speaker 10: you know, each day by day and just showing up
• 59:08
  Speaker 10: as my best version and you know how I can
• 59:11
  Speaker 10: be of help to this football team, and you know,
• 59:13
  Speaker 10: just using what I what I'm good at, and just
• 59:15
  Speaker 10: you know, applying that to be to be my absolute best.
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: Version is okay with a couple more years of this.
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: For this, she wants me to play a couple of years.
• 59:25
  Speaker 10: I was thinking like, hey, you know, I'll take it
• 59:26
  Speaker 10: year by year, and she's like, no, I think you
• 59:28
  Speaker 10: can play two three more years. And so I got
• 59:31
  Speaker 10: her full support, which is awesome, which I really appreciate,
• 59:34
  Speaker 10: you know, because.
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: It's you know, it's it's not easy.
• 59:36
  Speaker 10: You know, it's I think really the significant others get
• 59:39
  Speaker 10: the short end of the stick. You know, people don't
• 59:41
  Speaker 10: realize just how hard life is when you know you
• 59:44
  Speaker 10: don't really have a stable home, you know, like when
• 59:47
  Speaker 10: you're going from city to city, and you know, quite frankly,
• 59:50
  Speaker 10: a lot of guys like they it's it's hard from
• 59:52
  Speaker 10: the handle that I think they decide to hang it
• 59:54
  Speaker 10: up early because they just don't want to go through
• 59:56
  Speaker 10: the stress of that. And you know, every time we've
• 59:59
  Speaker 10: got from city to city, she's been she's been so happy,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 10: like she's never complained about Oh man, I got to
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 10: pack everything up and I got to move everything. And
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 10: now we have a sixteen month old daughter, so that
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 10: just adds more to it. But man, She's been so
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 10: supportive and so positive through it all, and I'm just
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 10: I'm lucky to be able to have her in my
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 10: life and have that support to continue to do what
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 10: I love to do on the field.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: Your biggest sketch, what's fin by the way, what's fatherhood
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: taught you? I mean that changed it. When I was
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: first to father, it changed my life in perspective.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 10: Forever exactly, That's exactly what it did. It changed my perspective.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 10: It made me realize, like when when my daughter was born,
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 10: you know, I'm being I remember being at the hospital
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 10: and you know, before that point, like I if I
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 10: missed a workout, I was like, I had anxiety. I'm like, man,
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 10: I'm not doing enough. I'm getting behind. But man, when
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 10: I was at the hospital with my daughter and just
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 10: being with her for you know, the first couple of
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 10: weeks before I started getting back into it, like I
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 10: wasn't even thinking about football. I was just thinking about
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 10: just how blessed and how much gratitude I had just
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 10: to be able to be a father to this, to
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 10: this new human that we you know, it was just
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 10: just incredible, so powerful. And I remember last year when
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 10: I did get the call to go to Minnesota. You know,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 10: typically I'm really excited. I can't wait to go, and
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 10: you know, part of me was like, man, I'm kind
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 10: of sad to leave them, like I do, I really
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 10: want to go, But obviously it all worked out. Are
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 10: they here with you now? They're not here yet, but
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 10: they're gonna come. But yeah, yeah, I think at some
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 10: point they'll come up for a couple of practices. And yeah,
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 10: I mean, this is where's where I met her. You know,
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 10: that's where I met Ariza. So it's cool to be
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 10: able to come back to the city where, you know,
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 10: where we met each other, and to be able to
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 10: show our daughter, you know, these memories that we've created
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 10: here would be really special.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 2: That's great. Yeah, it's great to have you back, Nick Finette.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: You were all such a stand up guy, especially after losses.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: You stand up and talk for the team, and we
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: always appreciated that. On the beat. It's great, of course, No, thanks, great,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: thank you, Thank you for the time. Nick Venette Seahawks
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: tight end in his second redo with the Seahawks here
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: at Seahawks Turning Camp. More coming next on ninety three
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: point three kJ R at Them.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 11: Greg Jessman I just can't invest any more emotion in
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 11: the Mariners this year. I've got games that I'm going
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 11: to this weekend, but I'm not watching them on TV anymore.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 11: I just can't. They just they just kill me.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 6: They're infuriating.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 11: I love Dan Wilson, but I don't think he's the guy.
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: I thought you had two others each.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: I wanted you to react to that man.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: If the if the fan base is turning on saying
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: I love Dan Wilson, but I don't think he's the guy.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: They've reached a breaking point with the manager Remembory, first
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: time managing at any level, just like Scott's service was,
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: but at least Scott's service. I mean, Okay, that's all
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: I'll say. But I will tell you that Dan Wilson,
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 2: I've said it before, I'll say it again. He is
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: often handcuffed by some of the moves he can. May
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: I do wish he would just say, I don't care
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: what your iPads and analytics say if they bring in
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: a left hand or Refschneider is not an automatic to
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: go into the lineup. I know he had a double
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: and a home run the other night. It was like
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: a lightning strike. But one is one thirty. I mean,
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: you don't hasn't your gut in your heart, shouldn't tell
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: you that this is my move. I'm going to put
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: in the one thirty guy with the game on the line,
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: bases loaded, one out, down five to two. Yeah, but
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: the iPads say that the analytics, Hi.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's hard to know the inner workings when we
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 4: don't exactly know what the inner workings are.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 3: Obviously.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 4: We talked to a couple of former gms the other
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: week in Steve Phillips and Jim Bowden, who told us
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 4: that things have changed and they don't know exactly what's
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 4: going on inside that clubhouse the phone to phone.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 3: We don't know either.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: They say that the point at Boden and the former
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: GM is Steve Phillip, is that they have daily meetings
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: now in Major League Baseball, the general managers saying, Okay,
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: manager tonight, you're gonna do this, You're gonna do that.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: But it's obvious, like this far into the season that
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: they have told that the upper the Poto and Hollander
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: have told Dan Wilson that when they bring in a
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: left hander, you bring in a right hander. Period. End
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: of story that matter if you hit in one thirty,
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter what your gut tells you, what your eyes
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: tell you. I mean, hell, Dominic can Zone was in
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: the same boat. He would never play against left hand
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: and pitching, and now he's an everyday guy. He hit
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: two home runs the other night against left anders, when
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: a month ago they that was a rule. So they
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: show signs of changing and fudging on their rules and
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: betting them a little bit like when Spier came out
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: for a second inning the other night in Texas after
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: you're not supposed to start aging. It's another one of
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: their rules. But all these rules have really hamstrung a
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: guy who doesn't have any experience managing anyway.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 4: Right, yes, exactly, and they annointed him pretty quickly.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 3: Oh yes, all right.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 4: This comes from our friend Aaron, who was new to talkbacks,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 4: so we welcome the newcomers.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: Hey, good morning, Jess. It's Aaron, the EMU guy.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: It just occurred to me, I've never actually used the
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: talkback function, and I thought this would be a great
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: way to say.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 6: Hello and will not bother you with an em I'm
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 6: standing on my best and I'm almost done.
• 1:05:56

• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: That is a very loyal listener.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: And you gotta explain this. He's like, yes, you went
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: and petted.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 3: No I haven't. I haven't been there yet.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 4: I haven't had the time to go out there because
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 4: warm and Fuzzy Farms is a little far from me,
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: and as you know, I'm a workaholic, so I have
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 4: not had the time to get out there. But he knew,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: he knew that I was a bird nerd, and had
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 4: texted in a couple of times telling me that he
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 4: has EMUs and unfortunately he lost one recently and we
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 4: are sorry for that, Aaron, But thank you for listening.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: Thank Yes, yes we have exchanged emails about birds and everything,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 4: and yeah, I'm a nerd.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 3: I'm a nerd, Greg, I'm a huge, huge door.
• 1:06:53

  Speaker 2: Okay, I figured that is That is a very good film.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 3: It is so good. Yeah, yeah, Bill Murray right, and
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 3: Owen Wilson.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 2: It was Steve Martin it was Owen Wilson who was
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 2: the guy who kept running out. He was No, it
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: was Steve Martin and Jack Black and and Owen Wilson
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: was a bad guy who kept he won every year.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, that I remember.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: He kept He kept ticking off his wife for just
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: getting up and leaving in the village. Yeah.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I have done that to my husband.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 4: I have been like, okay, I just got a notification
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 4: on one of the various burning apps that I have
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 4: that there is a rare grossbeak in our area, and
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 4: so I am leaving.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 2: I had no idea. Birds. Oh, there are a ton
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: of texts on the takomadads text one four nine four
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: five one about what the Mariners need to do, and
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: there were a lot of them. I mean, we can't
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: get through them all. Two to five three bring a
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: royal up, trade for relief and a right handed hit
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: or a good one, not a platoon. Dan needs to go.
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 2: He has no handle in the clubhouse.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 4: Okay, well I think that a lot of people kind
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 4: of agree with that.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 3: Right now.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 2: Three to six h fire the manager ninety five is over. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: that's next weekend. They're going to have a fiftieth anniversary
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: of the Mariners on the weekend series against the Rays.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: A lot of the fifty top fifty Mariner players in
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 2: history are going to be back for that, including a
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: home run derby two six. There's nothing this team can
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 2: do right now, no one on the team and hitting
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 2: the worst manager in baseball. They are terrible defensively and
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: they play like they have no faith in anything they're doing.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: Hopefully a new manager can make a run next year.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: That is, if there even is a next year. Good point.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 2: A lot of people think it's going to be a
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: walkout and they're really going to have a season, especially
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: if to owners want to install a salary cap. Good
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 2: luck for that. But this year is over. In my opinion,
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: there is no one available on the market that is
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: a difference maker. It's on the next year. Josh two
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: five three trade for Otto, Loop hasn't moved Emerson to third,
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: JP to I injured list, bring up a Royal and
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: move Randy to periodic DH. Periodic DH for your best hitter.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: I don't know about that. Four to five hitters failed
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 2: three fourths of the time. Pitching defense doesn't. Miller is
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 2: under contract for two club control for two more seasons
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: you are trading for the next three years. Two six
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 2: Rayley Kirby Stein Smith a San Diego for Tatis. San
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: Diego would not give up Tattas for that. No package
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: Kirby in the deal. Three six zero says for trade
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 2: for a hitting third basement and package Kirby in the deal.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 2: Require now about C. J. Adams as a starting shortstop
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: with Colt manning third and Donovan spelling him as a
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 2: utility outfield. Or trade Hancock Montese plus one other top
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: one hundred prospect, then call up Michael Royo. Send Wilson
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: to the bars. They mean Weston Wilson.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, he's been getting a lot of flack.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: Unfortunately triple A player playing third base.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he is Greg.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 4: Before we get to more of these, we want to
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 4: give people a little more lead time on our word
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 4: of the hour.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 4: When it comes to the big bucks that are presented
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 4: by Bellevue Rare Coins, this hour's word is rich. I
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 4: don't know one thousand dollars would make me feel rich
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 4: right now, but that is your chance.

• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: gets players attention. Two five three takes exception to me
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: calling Houston the trash cans. He said, trash cans versus
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 2: the Twins at a three game set in Seattle this
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: weekend fixed your preview.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, the Astros are the trash cans.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, I get what they're saying.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 4: They're making a joke, but no, the Astros are the
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 4: trash cans.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: Steve from the two oh six. They aren't getting rid
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 2: of Dan Wilson. He had to poto deflect people from
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: talking about cheap owners.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 12: M three six, Oh, Greg, I haven't had the opportunity
• 1:11:31

• 1:12:59
  Speaker 13: We're going here pretty quick, yeah they should. They just
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 13: left the facility about half hour ago.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 2: So really cool. Yeah, it's really cool. The precision and
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 2: the skill those guys have, the reaction time that you've
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: give it a shout out to the Navy guys. Huh,
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 2: I know, I am. I have to give it up
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 2: for them. They are amazing. Is our door still open?
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 2: It is okay, escape pad.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 13: We're in an investigation right now. We're knee deep into
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 13: an investigation here, trying to figure out.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 2: Who the donkey is. It keeps closing the door. Another
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 2: blue sky day here at training. Gave me in for
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 2: net joining me. What have you noticed the first day
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: of PAD? Just would you check out?
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 13: It's just a different feel right, like like a little
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 13: more energy. You know, there's I know that there's a
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 13: lot of dudes on both sides of the ball depending
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 13: on the position that just they.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: Don't want to be in pads. It's hard. It's all
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: those things.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 13: And then there's the and then there's also at the
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 13: same time, like I'm so sick of like every interception
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 13: being a touchdown, yeah, you know, or every running flying
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 13: through for fifty yards when we just you know, we
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 13: give him a two hand touch like so I I
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 13: mean a little small skirmish, nothing big. And you know,
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 13: we asked Mike McDonald about that yesterday when he joined
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 13: Hugh and I and and he's like, yeah, I like
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 13: a little bit of it, just a little bit, not
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 13: too much.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: Gotta know where to draw the line. Yeah, and they did.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 13: But uh, yeah, it was I was spirited, I would
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 13: say yesterday. But that's what you expect and the way
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 13: we go. And you know what the thing is, I
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 13: was just thinking about this. It's warm today, feel a
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 13: little warmer today than happens. But really we haven't had
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 13: those just Africa hot days like we've had in the past. Yeah,
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 13: and I think I think that lends itself to better practices,
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 13: the fact that guys aren't just dying out here in
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 13: the heat, right, so the enough of a breeze coming
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 13: off the lake every day it's been it's been good.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: And even the hottest days here are nothing compared to
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: most of the rest of the league with the humidity
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: and everything else. But what do you got going today?
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 13: We're gonna uh check in with George Hallani coming up
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 13: top right now, or it's about time we talked to him.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 13: I'm sat here and listened to rag And and Corbin,
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 13: the president and vice president of his fan club, just
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 13: rave about him for the last two years. We're gonna
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 13: get Hallane on today. So I said that in Corba goes,
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 13: I have the goats. I'm like, okay, let's just take
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 13: a step back. But no, I hey, good story. I mean,
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 13: just a great story. Undrafted free agent comes in here
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 13: and he's you know, he's a he's very much part
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 13: of this football team.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 13: He showed yesterday and pastors pick up him and Ernest
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 13: Jones going toe to toe was fantastic. I did, I
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 13: got it. I caught that. That was highly entertaining. And
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 13: then you know that's probably you know, with that group
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 13: that Ernest was with and with Halane, he was best
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 13: on best, right, Yeah, so that was good to see you.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 13: Uh and you know he good special teams player, catch the.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 2: Ball out of the backfield. You kind of need that
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 2: plug and play guy. Don't share. They can do everything, yep.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: And and he's that guy.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 13: And I think he's I think like a few of
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 13: these guys like him, Drake Thomas, Tyo, Cotta guys that
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 13: have come out of nowhere and they're now firmly entrenched
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 13: in the team. That's kind of cool to see you.
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 13: I like those stories, to be honest with you. I mean,
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 13: it's great, Devin coach yesterday. It's great to have big names.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 13: I like those stories, I really do.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 2: And I know you.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 13: I know you do too, you you know, I mean
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 13: it's you got Jaylen Milroll today, I have for Monday,
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 13: I guess would be afterwards.
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's good. So Danny O'Neil on today. Danie
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: O'Neill's coming on today one twenty. We'll have him.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 13: We're gonna replay for those who may have missed it,
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 13: the Mike McDonald conversation with Hugh Millan and I yesterday,
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 13: Bigger picture stuff. Really, to be honest with you, like
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 13: kind of deep dive in that regard. So we'll check
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 13: in with him coming up today at twelve twenty and
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 13: then Danny one twenty. Rob rang Well, he was out
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 13: here in his dual role of Fox Sports dot Com
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 13: and scout for the BC Lions.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 2: Poaching players for the cflaching knows about to get cut.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 13: He's gonna join us at too, and I think one
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 13: of the things he's gonna tell us is that there
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 13: is no poaching. He says, a talent here is just
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 13: it's deeper than it's been. He says, a lot of
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 13: years you can't come out here. And he knows that
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 13: there's five or six guys that can get north of
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 13: the border. He doesn't think that's the case, is sure?
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 2: Really? So even cut guys are going to go to
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: the NFL, he thinks.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 13: So, yeah, yeah, it's it's that's which just is incredible
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 13: when you think about it, because wouldn't common sense tell
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 13: you that the success that they had, and you're an
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 13: undrafted free agent, you can pick and choose where you go,
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 13: why would you go somewhere where the roster's fairly well established,
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 13: fairly young, well set. But maybe guys want to come
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 13: and have a chance to win.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, something to be said for that. Isn't something to
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 2: be said for that? Yes?
