• 0:34
  Speaker 2: our spots this morning at five o'clock this morning.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: It's NFL network nerds.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: That right.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: I think wrap's here somewhere. He's told me who's going
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: to be.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Here today, probably Rapport himself. Can't see him, he's too short.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Man's all right, slash his tires.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Way, he's up there.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: He's up in Schneider's office right now.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Scolded.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you were drawn to Ashley and
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I you had the opportunity to sit down with us
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: since you were coming out early, or were you drawn
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: to our topic.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: I was listening.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm driving in, and first as right as I'm
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: pulling in, I hear the I hear Greg Bill. God,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: I love the fact you brought up Jimothy. It was
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: so good because nothing like He's a pretty even keeled guy, Greg,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Greg Bell. The Jimmithy thing just sends him over the
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: edge and for you to bring it up was just
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: a classic moment. And now he's just he's driving in
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: right now, probably just muttering himself, Jimothy, Jimmothy. And then
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: you go from top players the worst players. I'm in
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: and I wanted to spend a little bit of time
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: on this with with Ashley Todavid.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: I'll get your opinion on it as well, and then
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: we'll get into our text and our talkbacks here in
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: a little bit. Look, it's amazing that they knew that
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: Jimithy would be a runaway success Wednesday night, that you
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: sold out a stadium on a Wednesday with two losing records.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: By selling a card of a rack.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Wasn't a T shirt. No, wasn't a T shirt or
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: a chance to meet Jimithy or Jimmithy or it was
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: like that, Like I can see with cool giveaways, it's
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: a trading card for a deformed rack who rides, and
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: yet they got so they they give them some credit
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: that they can tap into what it is that people
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: are gonna respond to.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I'll say that.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Chuck oh youth.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, listen, we spent a lot of time on
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: our show yesterday talking about this. I think it's it's
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: hard for fans to do this when teams aren't doing well.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: But under like you have to separate the business side
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: from the baseball side or just whatever it's the business
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: side from the sports side of any organization, doesn't matter
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: what it is. I listen, I threw my own employer
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: into the bus, I said with the Kraken. I mean,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of fans that get pissed off. They
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: say they spend too much time worrying about all the
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: common thread nights in their theme nights and this and that,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: and look at this great practice years that you can Yeah,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: they spent, but guess what those sell tickets. That brings
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: the on traditional fan in. It grows your fan base,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: and they do a terrific job with it. That has
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: nothing to do those people that are brilliant there. They
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: have nothing to do with the fact that Jason Robertson
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: doesn't want to come and play here right, or that
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Shane Wright can't take that next step and is getting
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: dangerously close to Jared Kelnick levels. I mean, that has
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: nothing to do with it. Same with the Mariners, right,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: they do a great job on the business side.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: Should they stop trying to get people to go to
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: the park for artificial reasons? I mean no, you know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: I mean it's not costing them any money, it's not
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: coming out of the player budget, you know. Should they
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: stop doing that just because it seems silly to die
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: hard baseball fans that just want a great baseball team.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: You can have both. You can have both. It's okay,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: you can have both. Along the way, I think the
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: one thing with Silp, Like, my daughter is twenty nine,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: school teacher, he's gonna be married soon, all these things,
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: and that made me feel really old met her, But
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: I remember her in college. Yeah, and you were here
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: when she was in high school, dude, Like that's so,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: but yeah, it was. She's a diehard fan like and
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: and but she's not the norm for that age group,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: right like she like I got a text from her
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: last night, you know, and she's going to the game
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: tonight and she's she goes, I swear if they're not
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: better tonight, like just losing her mind. I tell Kevin
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Martinez this all the time. I said that you have
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: to find more of more Brianni's Now she's also irrational, angry.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: She gets it all from me, and I get it.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: She grew up a Mariner fan and a lot of
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Mollywop tattoo She does oh yeah, yeah, Chris and natter
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: on her shoulder. The scary thing is she does have
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: more tattoos and Hell's angel, so that's fine. But so
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: she may have a Mollywop tattoo, if such a thing exists,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: God help us. But no, she you know, she grew
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: up a Marrion fan and a Wazoo fan. What what
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: of course she's better. Yeah, but she's like she doesn't care, like, hey,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: they're doing She didn't care about the promotions.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she won't.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: She won't.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: She might spend an inning if she's got friends at
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the ballpark and she's going out in Broland, out in
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: center field, but more than likely she's sitting there in
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Section one forty two angry.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: But that's the fan you want. But you can have
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: that fan.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: But to get the other fans to get more than
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: twenty thousand, you gotta have the provisions. And look, I mean,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: the home run Derby's is gonna be fun, But I
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: don't want any part of it, I really, I mean,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: and we got Bucky in it, we got Ryan Healy
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: in it, and I think the Ryan Rowland Smith thing
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: is funny.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: We finally gets see each.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Year row to a home run derby twenty years too late,
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: twenty five, right, But I think it's a clever idea.
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: It did come together. I was there when they were
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: trying to figure out will anybody want to do this?
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: And they ended up with a really good group and
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: it should be entertaining.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: But I'm really not interested and I didn't grow up
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: fifty years of frustration of Mariner baseball and then Saturday
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: is gonna be great.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be great. I mean, you were having a
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: fiftieth year celebration. What else are you going to do.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: You're gonna bring the top fifty Mariners of all time
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: and they get to tip their cap one more time
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: to the Mariner fans that rooted them. Those are all terrific.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: It just comes at such a badrod time.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Well, I think someone mentioned it, remember Softy last night?
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Soft and Fain, I think we're talking about this because
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: I hadn't thought of it either, And they were in
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: the midst of ranting about yesterday and Tuesday, I guess effectively.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: And they brought up because Julio's like the DJ.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Yes, so so post game what postgame fireworks? Doesn't matter
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: who's light in the firework, right, you just do it right.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: But if Julio's in charge of being DJ super Sam
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: out there, they better have super Sam. You just you
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: better have him on stand You better have him on
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: standby because what if what if Julio has an er
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: for four day, which is more likely than not these days, right,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: I mean he'll he'll have a couple exit velos, A
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: one oh four, their foul chuck, but don't worry about that,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: and the same that means nothing anyway, he'll have But
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: what if he goes over four and you get knocked out.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: It's a five to one loss. It's gonna be hard, man,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be hard. Yeah, A step closer to the grave.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: And I do think, I go, I do think.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: Forty six games to go, you're one hot week away
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: from erasing your deficit. So even if a loss tonight,
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: even if there's a loss tonight, it's still not over,
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: but it certainly does move you even closer to feeling
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: this team's just not gonna get it together, and then
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: you're going to have your biggest celebration in fifty years. Yeah,
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: while the maybe arguably the team that's best on paper
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: since at.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Least ninety five.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, even better than two thousand and one
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: on paper, Yeah, since nineteen ninety five is five games
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: under five hundred if they lose tonight, yeah, and we're
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: going to have a big party. Well, and you know,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: unfortunately those are these can't plan for right, like exactly,
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: and I'm sure the yes throw a top fifty gathering
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: together at the last second. No, I'm assuming well, I
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: think you mentioned earlier when I was driving in.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: I think it's right.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: When they were planning this out, there was no fiber
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: of their being that thought that they would be in
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: this position, right, Like, there's no way, Hey, we get
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: to August, we're probably sitting with a pretty decent lead,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Like we're probably three four up minimum, right, we're probably
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: in pretty good shape.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: People are feeling good.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Instead, you are where you are and then in the standings,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: and then you look around and you say, what happened
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: to cal what happened? Like just go through the whole list,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: right of all the things and there's nothing you can do.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's gonna be a cool celebration.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: I mean for those of us that grew up in
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: the in the area and you know, I mean, I
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: remember the first Mariners team. I remember, you know, Ruper Jones,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: my first one of my first baseball He's my first
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Seattle baseball hero. I'm old enough to have others from
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: other teams. Gean Tennis, for some random reason with the
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: A's was my guy. I like Gene Tennis too, not
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: as much as sal Bando. I played first place in Cotton.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: He did the same thing. So and that's all we saw.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: The A's were great back then. But yeah, no, I
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: think it's gonna be really fun weekend and marriage will.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Like anything else they do off the field, they'll do
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: it right. It'll be great. I just is Sean Figgins
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: on the list of these I hate efty guys.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I want to get let's get to that.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: Is he top fifty top fifty? Good or bad?
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Definitely bad?
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: But you know we're not Ashley and I are not
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: putting together a top fifty worst no players of all time. Yeah,
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: but if it ends up being that, I have no
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: control now I'm just asking for whoop see doodle. I'm
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: just asking for the worst of all time.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: So who is it worst Mariner?
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: Whatever your criteria is for that, whether it's just somebody
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: that you hate, couldn't stand.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: I got two.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: I'll give you the first one, which is an easy
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: when Seawan Figgins, Okay, they paid him a lot, he
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: never performed and might have been the most surly miserable
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: individual in Seattle sports. His like was just an absolute ass.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: And you know, we have the cut somewhere he's been
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: for years.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: You know, his like he's eating food he was. It's early,
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: it's early.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: And just when he was he was chirping at Christian
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Caple was with the p I i think at the time,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: and Chris Crabtree were in there. He just, you know,
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: he picks on those guys. He just was a He
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: was a punk and and just a bad dude, right
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: and bad baseball player that got overpaid.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: My off the off the grid one if I can
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: do this.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: One, Bill Plummer manager, Bill Plumber manager, Oh boy, because
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: you you have, for the first time in your history,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: not a playoff team, but a winning record with Jim
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Lefever and you decide to fire him in after ninety one. Yeah,
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: and you bring in in nineteen ninety two Bill Plummer,
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: you promote him from within. He was your Triple A manager.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: And now I know that there's a lot of people
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: in baseball at the time. Bill Plummer a rising star.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: He's going to be this, he's going to be that.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: He was Johnny Bench's backup, so he knows the game.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: And they went from a good record with the fever
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: and kind of a trending up to this guy. Yeah,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: and it just they had a one hundred some odd
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: last season. It was a massive disasters and now they
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: get lou out of it. But Bill Plumber, Bill Plumber,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Bill Plummer, that's an outside the box thought, Ashley, do
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: we have some talkbacks?
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: I like to Oh, yes, okay, all right, well let's
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: get some of those. I got mine, I know, let's
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: get some talkback.
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: Well, off the top of my head. Eric Bogard, he
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: was supposed to be something great and wasn't and had
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: a really crappy attitude, refused to play past five innings.
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: Comma Scott Spiezia, who came here and sucked and then
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: blamed the Mariners for him sucking. And then I was
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: never a fan of Jesse Winker. Didn't like that guy,
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: didn't like how much other people liked him.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: I think that was a shot that Eric already got here. Eric,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: that was coming up a lot.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: I'll take him over boy him. And he was also surly.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, god, I can't.
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: Well, he'd pull himself out of games. He'd be like, no,
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: I'm done.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Well, he was nine to five, like it's it's he'd
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: look up and wherever we are in the game, if
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: he's near one hundred.
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Pitches, he's done.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Right, if it was today's Eric, Eric Dartey, probably eighty pitches,
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: right right, exactly, seventy sixty five French Canadians.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: You can't trust, all right, let's get another one.
• 12:29
  Speaker 7: Not real Canadians by far, the worst mariner on the
• 12:33
  Speaker 7: field shown figures for how good he thought he was,
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: his ego and the person he was, he was junk,
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: the worst mariner.
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: I'm going to stop it there because I don't want
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: to get in trouble for the next part.
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: Oh, oh, okay, they insulted someone like in the in
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: the involved with the team currently?
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: Oh why did they?
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Feel free to text Chuck and I who I could
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: just tell it.
• 12:59
  Speaker 6: I mean, I could tell you. I don't want him
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: to brate somebody. Oh it was Dan Wilson. Well, he
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: was talking about him as a manager as a player.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: Okay, Dan Wilson is not as bad as Bill Plumber people.
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I mean this, This guy clearly knows
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: I I already called for Dan's job, but he's gonna
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: be honored tomorrow.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Is one of the fifty greatest.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Who was the first one he said there before Spiezio
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: was Sean.
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: It was Sean Figgins, but he called him shown Figgins.
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: There was another guy that called him Shoon Figgins and
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: was like, I want to call him something else. We've
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: gotten a lot for Colton Wong. By the way, a
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: lot for Colton Wong.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: I think that's definitely in play. And that's another one
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: that I thought, Hey, I get that.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's a bad signing.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: I was on board with that, and I could not
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: He was a four war player when he got here
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: from the previous year and showed up and couldn't do anything.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: He was a gold glove defender, showed up, couldn't even
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: play defense.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Chuck, can you do can you can you guys do
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: like like if we're at Emerald Downs right now, you
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: can like you can bet the field or something sometimes,
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: right can you do like the Jerry Depoto specially hit
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: her field like they can hit left handers and or whatever.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: We could put Lostella, Pollock, Wong, ref Snyder. I'm missing
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: somebody else but those guys. Nathan Bishop has a tracker.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: He was doing a tracker this year with ref Snyder
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: versus I think it was Pollock, maybe it was Lostella.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: I don't even know if they're I think they're the
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: same person. But anyway, he was doing that tracker with it.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Ressner didn't quite catch them, by the way, was just
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Lostella was just a veteran late ad.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we we can't put him in that group, but Garber,
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: ref Snyder, Pollock, Wong, Wong, Yeah, can all be put
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: in that.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: I feel like we're missing somebody, were missing one of those.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: It feels like there's like two of those guys every year.
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: Who are we missing?
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Oh uh uh Donovan Solono, Yeah, gosh, he's gotten quite
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: a few.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: Votes for him.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: That's the field, that's your field, that's like, that's like,
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: oh God, yeah, he's having some ice cream leave.
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: Alone from Jesus Montero. Anyone wanna buy it from me?
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I think he did. Yeah, I think that is an
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: amazing item to have.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: I remember that trade I didn't trade was Panada.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: I like that, and I don't think anybody in baseball did,
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: except the fact that like, well they're trading from depth
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: and they need power. And then all of a sudden,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: jack Z just started drafting everybody that could hit a
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: home run, whether they'd even played baseball before, and that
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: was his undoing.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: Was chasing power, corner outfield power. That's all he was
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: drafting for like a decade. It was worse or Jacks Why.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: I think jack Z was.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: Jack Z was actually like trending well, and then that
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: Pana trade. He was just chasing power. And then he
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: and up like blowing like three.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: Drafts in a row, astulely. Who is your pick, by
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: the way, I don't think I've gotten it.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: It was Sean Figgins. Yeah absolutely, I just think he
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: had the worst attitude. Andy wasn't good and it was
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: really irritating.
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: All Right, I'm gonna throw one mind a little more
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: like technical okay, because I didn't carry the emotion for
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: fifty years that you guys have. So I did a
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: little research, as you might expect, and I might have
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: to submit Carlos Silva.
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: Oh, you've got some supporters on the text line there.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Who had a six four to six RA in his
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: first full season and an eight six EER the next
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: year on a one team that lost over one hundred games,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: and then another team that fixed.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Itself after he left.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Oh god, he had eight point five WAR for his career,
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: which suggests that he was good somewhere else, but here
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: he had in a season and a half as a
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: spot as a starter, I guess, Yeah, he had a
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: minus three WAR in a season and a quarter uh
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: here as a pitcher, So I think maybe.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: He's the worst Mariner of all time.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Wow. Well the bad thing about this, and I got
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: support on.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: That a lot.
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: There's a lot of people.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: As soon as you said as soon as you said that,
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: as long I might nod in my head, I'm like, yeah, good,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: good call.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: I don't know what this research stuff as you talk about.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: That's not part of our policy. How you make me
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: feel in the moment, which is fine.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Whatever your criteria are, but wow, this every organization could
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: do this little exercise.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: And these guys could we could hear. I mean, it's
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: not like they every year exactly.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: You could. Maybe we'll do that next week.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: I mean there's a whole bunch. I go through the
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: list for that.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Although he was like Rookie of the Year or something,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: where wasn't I mean for where he was, for where
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: he was drafted, Yeah, expect I mean, I mean you
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: go through all their high draft.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: Curry though higher than Yeah, I mean Aaron Curry.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: Which I hate that because he's a good dude and
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: he's turned into a terrific coach in the NFL. I
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: think any quarterback they drafted high seems to be bad, right,
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: whether it was staffer Dan McGuire meyer, those guys were
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: all supposed to be the saviors and none of them were.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: And yet there's still a player out there that just
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: contributed negative.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: That would be.
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: Jamal's definitely on the list.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Were you thinking of somebody else? Its recency biased, but
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: that would be Jamal. I think.
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: Softy's tweet the other day was like, Brian Wu on
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: the home at home, Cam Chancellor, Brian.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Wo on the road, Oh my god, that's that's that's
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: that's it, because my least favorite Seahawks and I moved here.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: I think he was.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's easy to maybe not the
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: worst player, though probably probably he was a demand.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: He was.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: He was the start of the n P. Oh yeah,
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: that was the start of the NP. Like that's and
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: he can and locker room is on at twenty twenty three.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: He was the reason.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: He and the whole just the poison pill that he was.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: But yeah, that's a good one actually because Brian Wu
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: on the Road doesn't pitch the con doesn't like contact,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: doesn't pitch to contact. Brian wood Holm all about contact.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: So Cam and Jamal is actually a great comp I
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: don't think so if you looked at that deep.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: But Brian Wu is on the best fifty Mariners of
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: all time. Brian wu on the Road twenty twenty six
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: is on the worst.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Mariners you don't want to be was showing Figgins and
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: Eric Padard, Bill Plummer, Silva.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: God, that's a great poll.
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: I'm sure we have many others. Thank you very much
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: for your contributions. A little fun with that, Thank you man,
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: that was fun.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: Gad you stop by all right, coming up next to
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: NFL News and notes for you.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: I think that we need to brush up on our
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: NFC West Sports Radio ninety three point three kh A
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: r f M.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: That was nice of me and the stuff by what
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: a fun surprise.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he got sucked into our segment and our topic
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: and uh and yeah that was fun.
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: That was good conversation. And we're not done with your feedback.
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: I know Ashley's telling me we got a lot more
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: of the talkbacks. We'll try to get to more of
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: those coming up before the end of the hour. But yeah,
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: I'm not surprised. Here's what I'm not surprised by that
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: people sunk their teeth into this one.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: Actually, I'm not surprised either. We've gotten quite a few suggestions.
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: We got most mostly text, lots of people on the
• 20:28
  Speaker 6: text in the YouTube chat wanting to share their opinions,
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: and a lot of people agree with what we have said,
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: like the suggestions we had all made.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: And somebody even.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: Went as far as saying we should have a bracket
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: and it's not a terrible idea.
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: Really not, it wouldn't be actually a lot of fun.
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: And I told Ian, I said Ashley and I, Uh,
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: we're gonna launch this if you guys want to take
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: it from here, if Greg wants to take it from here, yeah,
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: and and hand it to the end and then softly.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Who knows how big this idea gets. But we just
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: wanted to start with your least favorite or the worst
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: Mariner of all time. And we've gotten a lot of feedback,
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: a lot of feedback so far. We'll get to more
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: of that coming up in a moment, but I did
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: want to bring up some NFL news and notes because
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: there is some really interesting stuff going on around our
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: division last night, particularly the Cardinals showcase Jordan excuse me,
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: Carson Beck for the very first time, and he performed
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: really well. And that's really what this season's going to
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: be like for the Arizona Cardinals. They're over under in
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: Vegas as three and a half wins. I mean, that
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: is as low as I can remember a team starting
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: a season, Yikes, where they're over undertotal. I mean it's
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: usually like the standard for the worst is four to
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: four and a half five that's usually the standard. They've
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: got them at three and a half wins going into
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: this season, and so this this year really is because
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: about them identifying whether or not they have their quarterback
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: and whether or not they have their head coach.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: That's what this season's going to be about. And if
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: they could somehow solve the quarterback issue, if Carson Beck
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: ends up being something that they feel. Now, keep in mind,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: this is the guy I was never really impressed, even
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: when people were saying he's going to be the future
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: number one overall pick in the draft.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I wasn't buying it at the time. But that's where
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of mel Kipers of the world were projecting him.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: After his first couple of years at Georgia and then
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: of course he slides a little bit at Georgia, has
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: to transfer to Miami, and then goes to the National
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: Championship game for goodness sake and restored his stock a
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: little bit. They end up getting him in the third round.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: But this is somebody not long ago that people thought
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: was going to be a future number one overall pick
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: in the draft. So if the Cardinals can find out
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: that Carson Beck is their quarterback this year, man, that
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: takes a big load off of them. Then again, uh,
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: if they don't discover that, which maybe a lot of
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: Cardinal fans are rooting for, and they're gonna have a
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: down year, then they have the opportunity to get somebody
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: that actually is one one of a draft that actually
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: is coming out of college on a heater and coming
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: into the National Football League with you know, Fernando Mendoza
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: like expectations. So this year will be about whether or
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: not we've hired the right coach and whether or not
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: we Carson Beck could be our quarterbacks are probably the
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: two most important things actually that the Cardinals are going
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: to try to.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Figure out this year.
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and if they end up having their quarterback, well,
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: then people are going to say, oh, well, maybe that
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: edition of Jeremila wasn't as crazy as we thought it was.
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and then and then if you still end up
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: being bad, but you found your quarterback and you have Love,
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: who they've already announced he's not gonna have a huge rule.
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: He's not going to be running back one this year
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: because they're gonna they they realize they're not gonna win
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: this year. We're not gonna waste bullets on Jeremiah Love
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: until we're ready to be better. And then by next year,
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: you know, maybe we're we've got a different story, but
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: you can determine we've got Love. We're not gonna overuse
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: we found back, and then if we end up with
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: a high draft pick, maybe even the number one overall
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: pick next year, and get Jeremiah Smith out of Ohio State,
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: now all of a sudden, you got something cooking if
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: you're the Cardinals. So certainly this is gonna be a
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: learning year, trying to figure out what we have that works,
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: and then just getting rid of as much as we
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: can that doesn't work. In the offseason San Francisco forty
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: nine ers man, there was an assistant coach that kind
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: of went out his way to tell everybody in the
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: last twenty four hours, we're not as injured as what
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: people are telling everyone. The stories are exaggerated, that they
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: have their normal nix and bruises of training camp, and
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: that's really all that it is.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: But the stories are really large, like they are.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Bold statements that twenty forty nine ers are already hurt
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: in their camp, and if you remember to a year ago,
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: it's the reason why I thought they weren't going to
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: be good last year. I just don't think their players
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: can stay healthy. I mean, yeah, Bosa Warner, Williams, Kittle,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: McCaffrey when they have them all together, still a dangerous team.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: Those are you know, potential Hall of famers that they
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: still have, But that's been years since they've.
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: Been able to keep those guys healthy on a consistent basis.
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: And my guess is that it won't be the same
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: guys that are hurt all season long, but two or
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: three of them. I don't think that they can stay healthy.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: And I don't think it has anything to do with
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: a substation, but maybe it does.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: Maybe.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: And if you're already, you know, kind of hamstrung by
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: a bunch of injury plague players and you've got twenty
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: injuried players already one week into camp.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I predicted that the forty nine ers were gonna crash
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: and burn last year.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: They didn't.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: I think they're going to this year, though I would
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: rather be a year early on a prediction, Ashley, than
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: a year late. I think the forty nine ers are
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: getting ready for some really hard times, and I think
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: they're finally gonna feel those effects in the win loss
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: column this season.
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's felt like they're kind of like cockroaches, right.
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: They've just been able to survive anything and still be successful,
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: and most teams it would completely crumble you the injuries
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: that they've dealt with over the past couple of years.
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: And I thought last year too they were gonna suck,
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: and boys this year it did not. So yeah, I
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: hope they suck this year, but not in Game one.
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: I want them to be great in Game one because
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: they're in Australia week early and they're gonna trounce the
• 26:52
  Speaker 6: Rams and then they can suck after that and.
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: Their injury history there, they'll probably have like eleven players
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: get bit by one of those gigantic Australian like wolf spiders.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: Perfect, exactly Australia. They need to be around things that
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: are bigger than my head that can eat me.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: They'll get in the wide receiver tent and take them
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: all out. And then I did want to mention something
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: about the Rams as well. Obviously the story there is
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: Aaron Donald. He worked out apparently blew everyone away. I'm
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: not surprised by that. I'm just going to reiterate something
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: I said earlier about Aaron Donald. I don't think he's
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: coming back to win a Super Bowl. I mean, if
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: he wanted to win another Super Bowl, he would have
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: come back at some point last year and joined that team.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: And maybe would have been the difference.
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: Considering how close the Seahawks and Rams were in their quality,
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: he might have been able to make the difference. I
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: don't think it's about him winning another super Bowl. I
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: think Aaron Donald wants to scratch the itch that what
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: kind of a player could I be if I'm not
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: getting double triple teamed on every single play? And if
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: Miles Garrett is there, he's at least going to get
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: a double team, which means I won't be triple team.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: So I would like to see, while I still am
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: young enough to do it, how great a season I
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: could have if I didn't have to deal with the
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: frustration of every offense building their game plan around keeping
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: me contained. Yeah, So in order to be that though
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: two years removed, in order for him to find that out,
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: he's gotta be the same Aaron Donald that he was
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: when he retired, and after two years that might be
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: an impossibility.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: And so I think this is what this is all about.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: They might be impressed by him, and they might say, Wow,
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: I can't believe how good you look considering you were
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: two years out. That's not gonna be good enough. Donald's
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: gonna need to hear and gonna need to feel I'm
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: every bit the player I was when I hung it
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: up two years ago. Otherwise I'm not gonna come back.
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: I really honestly believe that. That's how I'm reading the
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: tea leaves right now, so we'll see.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: I'm not surprised at all that he looked great in
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: the work out for a guy that's been away from
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: the game for two years.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: But my gut is.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: He's not gonna come back unless he's the exact same
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: player in his head that he was when he retired
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: two seasons ago, and that might be an impossibility. All Right,
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: we're gonna close out with one last thing. Next, we're
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: gonna get to more of your text and your talkbacks,
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: which have been great. Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: Fifteen, Bad News, the worst one ever, Bobby Ayaa, the
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: shortest to the point song ever written. It's pretty great, Yeah,
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: pretty good stuff.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: We've been asking today not for the top fifty. You
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: can put that list together on.
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: Your own based on all of our individual suggestions, but
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: we are looking for the worst Mariner of all time.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Let's get to some more here.
• 30:02
  Speaker 8: Ashley the worst Seattle Mariner of all time is Howard Lincoln.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Went up to the executive off.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, now, yeah, yes, once upon a time that
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: was pretty bleak.
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: The organization was run horribly. I'm gonna say this for
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: everybody that puts this group into that category. Ashley, well,
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: five straight.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Winning seasons, come on, yeah, I mean this is like
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: the best run in Mariner's history. And you're and some
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: people are comparing it to you know, same old management,
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: same old ownership, which I think is blatantly unfair.
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: No, this team, this group at least wants to keep
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: the team here.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean extended cal role, extended Julio Rodriguez. They're
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: doing things that did not that did not have anything
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: to do with the past.
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: Trade for Castillo, gave him an extension. I mean yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: good things. All right, here's our next one.
• 30:56
  Speaker 8: Hey, they're checking Ashley, and you asked for the worst manner.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 31:01
  Speaker 8: First one that comes to mind shown Figgins, and I'd
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: love to call him something else, but god, that guy suck.
• 31:12
  Speaker 8: And I am done with the Mariners this year.
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: Oh he's just angry.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: Close to that with the Gohawks. Another figure, I think
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: Figgins might have been our overall winner.
• 31:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it sure seems like it because that sticks. And
• 31:24
  Speaker 6: I told you earlier. I think that is Honestly, I
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: didn't think about it until we started talking about the
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: worst Mariners. I think that is why everyone gets so
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: mad when we say it's early. Huh yeah, yeah, all right,
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: here's our last one for today.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: Happy Friday show.
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: Worst Mariner since he just got his own Mariners baseball card.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: Jimothy the worst.
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: Oh poor Jimothy.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Come on, jud They didn't ask for any of this.
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: He's a victim.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: He's the most humble celebrity in town right now.
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: I've never seen him once like asked to be led
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: to the front of the line at the local club.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: He's just he's never said don't you know who I am?
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Anywhere in town?
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Like He's humble, and he's sweet, and he's kind, and
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: he he sold out a stadium without even being in attendance.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: What other Mariners, not even Kan Grivey Junior has done that.
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: I'd say he might be the best Mariner. Look what
• 32:25
  Speaker 6: he did? Uh?
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: What else did we get? Jeff Sarillo?
• 32:35
  Speaker 6: But there were a lot of Eric for Gard's. There
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: was one for Fernando Rodney. I didn't agree with that one.
• 32:40
  Speaker 6: I mean he has moments. Yeah, he had his moments
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: as of you know, like the Fernando Rodney experience was
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: definitely an experience.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: He was actually a good closer. He just yeah, I
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: mean it was just every it was every game he
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: had to put people on base. But there were a
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: couple of seasons there where he was getting he was
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: saving a lot of games for you.
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he got out of it. It just was an
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: experience to get there. Dustin Ackley, We've got some for
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: Dustin Aclee.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: Well, that's that's definitely a criteria thing because he certainly,
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: you know, wasn't the worst player. No, but considering the
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: hype and the expectations and that could have been Strasbourg
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: if we would have just not won that last game.
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: Uh kind of thing that that you dealt with. I
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: can see why people have a bad taste in their
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: mouth about him.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: We got one suggestion for Chris Bosio, which I can
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: understand because Chris Bosio is an anomaly. Right, he wasn't
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: a very good pitcher, but then he threw a no hitter,
• 33:34
  Speaker 6: So then what do you do with.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: That that eliminates them?
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you can't make a history like that. And
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: then and then h yeah, there's there's no way he
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: could be.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: The worst, right.
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: A lot of people for Coulton Wong too, So there
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: were a lot of Clton Wong.
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: That's I can't deny that. I mean, some of these
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: guys that I know, I did throw some support behind.
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: It looked to me like they were good signings and
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: should be contributors to Mariner's success.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: But this litany of Wong and Salon, well, not Solano.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: I never liked Solano. I hated that siding.
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: But Wong Garver ref Snyder. Yeah, I thought that Pollock.
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: I thought they were gonna work and they just blew
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: up in their faces, didn't do anything. They were terrible
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: players here.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: So I've got one.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't have an argument.
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: I've got one more. One thought this was bothering me earlier.
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: It's like, who was that Eric Burns He the suicide squeeze,
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: then wouldn't talk to the media after the game, then
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: rode his bike out of the clubhouse like his beach cruiser,
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: and then almost crashed into Was it Jacksonenzick at the time, Uh, yeah,
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: it was Jacksonensick at the time almost crashed his bike
• 34:47
  Speaker 6: into Jack riding his bike out of the stadium, and
• 34:51
  Speaker 6: then was released two days later.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: And he still to this day talks about how crappy
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: Seattle is.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: So you can add that to the list.
• 34:58
  Speaker 6: Of he's with the E and of bananas.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: So yeah, and you get what you pay for for
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: the Eric current.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: He was actually a very productive Arizona diamondback when I
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: was living there. Strangely enough, but I think everybody everywhere
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: else he's been, he's rubbed everyone the wrong way.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know he did here in Seattle as well.
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: All right, that'll do it for us. Thank you very
