• 5:07
  Speaker 2: on how his first NFL game went for him on Saturday.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: The Cowboys didn't test him much. He played the second
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: most snaps on the team. AJ Finley had few more
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: than he did. Finley and Clark, back at deep safeties,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: played the most on the team, and the Cowboys didn't
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: really test them. There was a lot of outside pass
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: routes and runs, but there were nothing real deep down
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: the middle. So you may not have noticed Clark. So
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: we'll catch up with him on what he thought of

  Speaker 2: Yes there was intros, it is and they I like

• 7:48

• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Husky fans are you? How hopeful are you? Jetfish year
• 7:58

• 8:01
  Speaker 2: seen Vegas posting is over under a number wins for you, dub.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: You know the schedule in the Big ten. I mentioned
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: that five opponents for Washington in the preseason top twenty five,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: they get Indiana at home, the number sixteen, they get
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Penn State and Io where the eighteen and twenty two
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: teams are coming to Montlake, and then they go to
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: Eugene this year later in the season four nine, four

  Speaker 2: to five one is coming outs Tech sign you Husky
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: fans the home of the Huskies here on ninety three
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: point three KJR about how excited and what you expect
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: from the Huskies? Demon Williams Jetfish year three. Remember the
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Apple Cup is the very first game this year, just
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: when Macati is gonna be on the WSU broadcast sidelines
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: and at least Woodward will be making her debut as
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: the Huskies played by play anouncers.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: He's phenomenal JR.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: That's Sunday, September sixth, at one o'clock at Husky Stadium.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: And yes, she is indeed phenomenal out here at Seahawks.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Yesterday Devin Witherspoon signed his contract in the morning, practice
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: in the afternoon. He's now got fifty six million dollars
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: guaranteed coming to him the next two years. The thing
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: that people are overlooking a little bit about this contract,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: he's only twenty five years old. It's a four year
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: extension that doesn't take effect until after the two remaining
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: years on his deal. Already, he had the rookies. The
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: last year of his rookie deal this season, he had
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: the fifth year contract option the Seahawks exercised in May
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: for next season. They added guaranteed money onto those two
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: years and then gave him the four year deal that
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: actually doesn't start until twenty twenty eight. So he's got
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: under contract twenty eight, twenty nine, thirty fifth through thirty one.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: He's going to be past his thirty he'll be pushing
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: his thirty first birthday when this contract ends.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, lock him up.
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: As soon as he was thinking, yes exactly, I thought
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: they did that perfectly.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that thirty three million a year, Jessman, as
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: you know, that's going to be a bargain by the
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: end of this contract, because the salary cap is going
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: to go up well above for it one right now
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: three in one million, that cap will go over four hundred
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: million in the next five years. The way NFL prints
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: money and by the way, the new media rights deals
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: are due in a couple of years, the NFL can
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: opt out of it and resign their own new deals
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: and make more money. The new CBA will be done
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: before Devin Witherspoon's contract. There there's a lot of financial
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: landscaping things that will change under the feet of Devin
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Witherspoon's deal. So while right now it's the richest in
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: the NFL history for cornerback, it's going to be a bargain. Yeah,
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: I think by the end of the deal.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: We see that with quarterbacks all the time.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Sure, you know the quarterbacks, I'm not talking about cornerbacks,
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: but we just see it at the the positions. We
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: heard Devin Witherspoon say that, you know, it's the hardest
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: outside of quarterback, it's the hardest position in the NFL.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: And it is. Yeah, yeah, rules are against him. He is.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: So in the locker room, they're already talking. Julian Love
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: in the locker rooms already saying it's no time for
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Devin Witherspoon to start buying because he's got this.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: They do clown each other that way, don't they.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Apparently he has a reputation inside the locker room. Witherspoond
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: does it being cheap? Oh, well, let's say frugal. They
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: tease him about wearing clothes from when he was in
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: high school in Pensacola, Florida.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: That's awesome, Like, why would you clown him for that?
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: He's twenty five years old. But now that he's making
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: thirty three million dollars a year, they say, you got
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: to step it up a little bit.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, isn't that also a tradition though, when
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: you know you get a big contract. I just I
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: love those stories when you hear the guys like all
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: go out to dinner.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: And they make the rookie pay.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, it's bo Stevens is bracing for that at
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: the end of the preseason because he's the only rookie
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: on the offensive line.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Oh gosh, Oh, those guys eat a lot.
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: That's a lot of steaks, young man, That is a
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: lot of steaks.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hopefully he goes like taco do mar or something.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: But that's not gonna happen.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: That would be an awesome like reclown, Like let me
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: reverse the clown.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: All right, I'm taking you guys out for.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: A very affordable, delicious meal to taco time.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: The Super Bowl showed how lethal a blitzer Witherspoon Spoon is,
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: especially out of the nickel and slot on the inside.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: He had a sack, he had three hits on Patriots
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: quarterback Drake May, and you remember he had a tackle
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: for the loss as well. You remember with four and
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: a half minutes left in Super Bowl sixty, Seahawks up
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: twenty two to seven, Patriots have the ball at midfield.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald sent Witherspoon on the inside blitz out of nickel.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: The right tackle didn't even move to him and untouched,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Witherspoon slammed into May, forced to funnel that e chennant
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: Wilson had picked up and returned for a touchdown and
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: game over. It was already over, but it was double
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: game over twenty nine to seven at that point. The
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Patriots didn't game plan for Witherspoon to blitz because that's
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: probably by Mike mcmonald's design that he only blitzed him
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: twelve times during the regular seat he hit him, Yeah,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: he did, and he unleased him in the Super Bowl.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: He had twenty sets in this first season McDonald twenty
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: twenty four. He blitzed them twenty seven times. Last regular season,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: he only blitzed him twelve, less than half the times
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: he did in his first year as coach. And so
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: did the Super Bowl. The question we asked yesterday to
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald, did the Super Bowl show the coach he
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: needs the blitz Witherspoon even more? And this is what
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: he said.
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's uh, he's a he's a great corner.
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: He's a great nickel.
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: And when when Nick's available, Nick's also a great nickel.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: And so you know, it's it's a great, great problem
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: to have as a as a coach that you know,
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: how do you deploy your people to have success? But
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: Spoon is very I mean, all all those instincts about
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: timing and you know, even beating guards, you know, setting
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: them up and beating backs and one on one pastoral
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: situations is uh, you know, it's not it's not common
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: for those for that skill set.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So McDonald also said, yeah, he's thinking more about
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: blitzing him this year, and he wants the NFL to
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: think more about Witherspoon blitzing this year, so they have
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: to devote game plan time to that, and that would
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: also free up even Worry to blitz when he's on
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: the field with Witherspoon. And yeah, he wants to know
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: we've talked about this. The league will copy the Seahawks.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: They'll study the Super Bowl game plan film like they're
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: playing the Seahawks, even if they aren't.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Well, they always do that.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: They wrote to everybody it's a copycat league, and they
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: will have a game plan for Witherspoon blitzing inside from
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Nickel because they showed it in the Super Bowl. So
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: McDonald has to come up with counters to that counter.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: I will tell you, without getting into specifics of what
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: I've seen in training camp practices, the fronts are changing
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: and the blitzers are changing, different people from different places.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: McDonald has talked about, the players have talked about how
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: he's already got a counter to the counters. You're not
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: going to see it in the preseason games. You're not
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: going to see it Sunday when they play Tennessee on
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: Fox Sunday evening at five o'clock. You're not going to
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: see it Friday when they play the Kansas City Chiefs
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: in the preseason finale. You're gonna see it when the
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: games get real. But McDonald has a counter to the counter.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Some of it may be blitzing Witherspoon more. Some of
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: it may be the specter of Witherspoon flitzing more from
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl to free up even more blitzing from
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: nick Emun Worri. But suffice to say that most if
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: what McDonald wants to do in the back seven starts
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: with Witherspoon and even Worry. Where he puts them, how
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: many times they're on the field together, whether they're in
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: five or six defensive backs. No team in the league
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: played sub packages five or six defensive backs more than
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Seattle did last year seventy percent of the time. And
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: so when he had both those guys in the field,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: who blitzes, who stays home? And recently last year for
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: most of the season, even Worry was blitzing and Witherspoon
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: stayed home and McDonald hinting very publicly so the teams
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: can study this, he may blitz Witherspoon more. Does that
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: mean Eman worri incoverages more? Probably? Does that mean even
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: worry blitzing with Witherspoon, Yeah, most likely. I could see
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: that happening too. I could see that happening as well.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: So the point is the professor, the mad Professor, the
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: mad Scientists of Seattle's defense is he's on it. He's
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: got counters to the counters that McVeigh and Shanahan and
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: the rest of the league are working on. After studying
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks all off season, but I thought it was
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: interesting to hear McDonald talking about the blitzing of Witherspoon
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: and he knows that's a weapon. It's he's got in
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: his back pocket that he doesn't.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: Have to use all the time, which is great.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: I mean, honestly, the way that that I call them
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: all kids now because there's so much younger than me.
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: But the way that kid plays, I think that was
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: a concern when he first got drafted, because he is
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: not as big as he plays, right, And that was
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: always a thing like, is this guy just gonna wrangle himself?
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: But he's so quick and he's so smart on the field,
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: it's not even a worry anymore.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: The very first play of his NFL regular season career
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: in Detroit three years ago. I was in the press
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: box had my binoculars on Devin Withersmon. He had missed
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: the first game with an injury from training camp, and
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: his first game was in week two at Detroit, and
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: the very first play he lined up at left outside cornerback.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: And the press box in Detroit is almost like the
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: old Husky Stadium we were talking about yesterday, and that
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: you are looking. You have to lean forward in your
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: seat and look straight down at Ford field onto the field.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: And I'm leaning forward in my seat in the binoculars
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: and Witherspoon is it's not a blitz. He reads run
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: and he takes off pell mel for it was an
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: inside dive play over the guard, and Witherspoon, at one
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: hundred and eighty five pounds from left cornerback, was in
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: on the tackle for a game at like two myself,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: what is this left cornerback under five pounds doing stuff
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: and dive plays right? And that was the very first
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: play of his career and ever since that he's been
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: like that, And that is largely why McDonald loves him
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: in the nickel in the slot and in training camp
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: so far, it's been with us. When they go five
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: defensive backs, it's been Witherspoon inside and Neamia Pritchett outside
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: at left corner, with Josh job Stand on the right
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: outside cornerback. I think that's where it's gonna start. If
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: they're on honor, then he is on the exemp list.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: As the news is coming out this morning that the
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodoh are gonna put Terror on
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: the exemp list as soon as he signs with the Seahawks,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: we're still waiting on one that's gonna happen, Mike McDonald
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: saying yesterday nothing new on that front. Arnold not here
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: as of early this morning that I know of here
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: at Seahawks headquarters. I thought maybe he would. First practices
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: might be this week here in Retin before they go
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: to Tennessee, so they could probably kind of use them
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: before the in the joint practice on Friday when the
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Ones play. But if Ian Rappaport's report is to believe
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: be believed, he's going to go immediately on the exemplest
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: when he does sign, so he would not be able
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: to practice Tarron on him up next we're gonna hear
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: from Devin Witherspoon. We're gonna hear him about his admitting
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: that he's cheap and his teammates getting on him about
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: it and about what he says. It's really special to him.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: It's real, it's not fake. He said that he's the
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: highest paid quarterback in the NFL and he appreciates that.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: You'll hear from Devon Witherspoon next on ninety three point
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: three KJRFM. Welcome back to Seahawks headquarters, the Virginia Mason
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Athletics Center, right along Lake watching it out in the
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: sunshine here for the twentieth practice of Seahawks preseason this afternoon.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: One more here this week before they go to Nashville,
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: Tennessee Thursday for joint practice, Fridayaturday of pregame walk through,
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: and then Sunday they have a second preseason game at
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans in Nashville. I'll be there Thursday, Friday
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: and Monday and ninety three point three KJRFM live at
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: ten am at noon from what the Seahawks are doing
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: with the Titans and putting on the field at the
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: joint practice. It'll be ending right about the time our
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: show starts on Friday morning back Tennessee time in the
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Central time zone. Devin Witherspoon will be there. He'll be
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: with the ones. He'll probably be a rabble rouser, making
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: a lot of the commotion in the contentiousness a little bit.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: The swag is part of what the Seahawks and coach
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald the most about Witherspoon, which is why they
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: just gave him a thirty three million dollar a year contract,
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: four year extension that will keep him under contract with
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: Seattle through twenty thirty one. He's still only twenty five
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: years old. He's their number one draft pick, first round
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: fifth overall a few years ago, and they just made
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: him the highest paid cornerback in NFL history. This was
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: a Devin Witherspoon's reaction to that yesterday after he signed
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: the deal to get the.
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: Contracting feel good, man. You know, a long time coming,
• 21:03
  Speaker 7: but it feel good to get it done.
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: Julian said, Uh, it's your turnout to cover some things
• 21:08
  Speaker 8: in the DV rooms.
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that what he's said. You know, I take the
• 21:10
  Speaker 7: talle zone. Man, I'm gonna be ready. I gonna be ready.
• 21:12
  Speaker 7: I got to gets ready.
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: He says that you're pretty frugal that, uh, you still
• 21:15
  Speaker 8: got stuff you're wearing from from high school.
• 21:17
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 21:17
  Speaker 7: I don't cheat with and I don't don't don't don't
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: ever get that confused, you know what I'm saying.
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: I'll always be cheat with it, but I letna take
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: care of guys for sure.
• 21:24
  Speaker 10: Devin.
• 21:24
  Speaker 11: How involved were you in the process. Was it like,
• 21:26
  Speaker 11: don't tell me until it's done, or were you kind
• 21:28
  Speaker 11: of keeping updates? Is going off for your kind of
• 21:30
  Speaker 11: you know what the landscape was kind of.
• 21:31
  Speaker 10: Working through now.
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: I was updated throughout the whole thing, you know, but
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: but my mom was here and focus on being with
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: my team and going to have practice and getting better
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: every day.
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: But my mind wasn't on that. But I knew what
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: it was to.
• 21:41
  Speaker 9: Be able to have these next few years, knowing it's
• 21:43
  Speaker 9: gonna be with this team. This franchise really carved out something.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: How special is that you know.
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: That future is into now and specially man, it's kind
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: of something you alreadys dreamed of, but it's kind of
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: something that I knew as well. It's like we talked
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: about it before and everything like that. It's like, I
• 21:56
  Speaker 7: know I'm gonna be here. I know this is where
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: my heart is, So that was never coming into a question.
• 21:59
  Speaker 7: So it was it just feels special to get it done.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: You said it was a long time comment of the
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: long process.
• 22:04
  Speaker 7: Man, You know a lot of back and for us,
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: but it was easy to get it done.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: Think this is exactly where you picture yourself being after
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: you got drafted, Like how the first three years of play?
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: How's this extensions play out? Uh?
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: Kind of, but I didn't have idea how it's gonna go.
• 22:19
  Speaker 7: One thing on my mind when I got drafted it
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: was to be the best meet every day and try
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: to win the city at Super Bowl.
• 22:24
  Speaker 11: So Devin, you and you and Jackson obviously coming in together,
• 22:27
  Speaker 11: you've been kind of tied it to the hip ever since.
• 22:29
  Speaker 11: Then both of you guys get the deals done the
• 22:31
  Speaker 11: soft season kind of know your foundational pieces of a
• 22:34
  Speaker 11: team to build around.
• 22:34
  Speaker 10: What does that kind of mean to you guys to
• 22:36
  Speaker 10: kind of have that under year for three years?
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: It means everything to us.
• 22:41
  Speaker 7: H Like I said, we talked about it when we
• 22:42
  Speaker 7: first got here and what we wanted to do, and
• 22:45
  Speaker 7: then as the years passed, we just continued to grow
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: and build. You know, it's changed at the point of
• 22:49
  Speaker 7: time in the year because it's like stuff happens and
• 22:51
  Speaker 7: we got to adjust and adapt.
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: But we just always talked.
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: About building on it and how can we be better
• 22:56
  Speaker 7: every day and how can we take this program to
• 22:59
  Speaker 7: an elite program.
• 22:59
  Speaker 8: So you remember that boat ride after you guys were
• 23:02
  Speaker 8: drafted and yeah, and uh, what'd you guys talk about
• 23:04
  Speaker 8: on that right.
• 23:05
  Speaker 7: Really didn't really say too much though we were just
• 23:07
  Speaker 7: we was happy to be here, you know what I'm saying.
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: It was like this crazy, but y'all remember that though I.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: Paid cornerback in the n NFL history.
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: What do those credentials mean to you?
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: Uh?
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: It mean a lot, man.
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: It just it's a it's a thing that you don't
• 23:18
  Speaker 7: kind of think about for real, but when it happens,
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: like that's really real, Like it ain't it ain't fake.
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: But you know, for me, it means a lot to me.
• 23:25
  Speaker 7: But at the same time, it's nothing to me at
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: the same time, cause it's like I got a team here,
• 23:30
  Speaker 7: you feel me, and I'm trying to win though, so
• 23:33
  Speaker 7: all that is love. I appreciate all that, but I'm
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: focused on building with my team right now.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Before you step up the podium, exile.
• 23:38
  Speaker 12: You're joking with Mike for a moment, just wondering playing
• 23:41
  Speaker 12: for him for a couple more years.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: What what help excited heard you for that?
• 23:44
  Speaker 9: And how is he kind of helped you develop in
• 23:47
  Speaker 9: in Maximus what you can do.
• 23:48
  Speaker 7: I'm ready, man, you know I told him when you
• 23:50
  Speaker 7: first got here. I'm thankful. I know what you're gonna
• 23:52
  Speaker 7: bring to the team. I know what you do, and
• 23:54
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna be the guy here for you. So it
• 23:56
  Speaker 7: means everything to me, man, you know, just to continue
• 23:58
  Speaker 7: to build with him, continue to learn from him the
• 24:00
  Speaker 7: way he gained plans, just to being involved with that,
• 24:02
  Speaker 7: it just means everything to me.
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: You know, I know I got his back, I know
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: he got my bat, So it means everything to me.
• 24:07
  Speaker 8: But you have badge on your jersey, the sledgehammer or
• 24:10
  Speaker 8: whatever on the other side of that line.
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: I have no idea, to be honest, And I see
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: I ain't even know what that was.
• 24:17
  Speaker 9: They first sort of the draft pumps the Steven how realistic?
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Was almost a decade with the same team, the team
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: the draft you you can stay eight plus years.
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: Or was that even in That's not something I was
• 24:27
  Speaker 7: really kind of thinking about at that moment, Like I said,
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: I was just coming in and try to be the
• 24:30
  Speaker 7: best me every day, So it wasn't something that.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Was on my mind.
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: Does a deal like this add pressure or take pressure
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: off the deal?
• 24:37
  Speaker 7: I don't think it does neither, though. I think it's
• 24:39
  Speaker 7: a little bit of both. But I don't think it
• 24:41
  Speaker 7: does nothing to me. You know, I'm gonna beat me
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: every day. I ain't nothing gonna change about me, So
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: I don't really see it no type of way.
• 24:46
  Speaker 13: How do you feel about that you and Josh now
• 24:48
  Speaker 13: both having job having contracts.
• 24:50
  Speaker 12: Together for the next three years, you guys get to
• 24:52
  Speaker 12: continue playing together to continuity.
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: On that back end, it's still good, you know, like
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: that's my that's my doll, right though for so like
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: that's my boy, So you know, being together it's not
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: just in the building, but outside building everything like that.
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: Like we got a real good relationship and it's still
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: growing to this day.
• 25:06
  Speaker 7: But knowing that we're gonna be here and knowing how
• 25:10
  Speaker 7: we practicing what we chasing like off the field and
• 25:12
  Speaker 7: stuff like that, it means everything to us.
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: So we chasing greatness for sure.
• 25:15
  Speaker 14: When the negotiations were going on, how did you stay
• 25:17
  Speaker 14: grounded your pensions, staying focused on here being out here
• 25:20
  Speaker 14: like who helped you?
• 25:21
  Speaker 10: How did you stay focused?
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: It was easy to my teammates man, Like I said,
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: when you come in and you coming to work with
• 25:25
  Speaker 7: guys like this like d hall e J And Lee
• 25:28
  Speaker 7: on them like Mirth, I mean you kind of guys.
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: When you come to work with guys like that means everything.
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: It's easy to take the pressure off you because now
• 25:34
  Speaker 7: I know what they're about, and they know what I'm about.
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: So it's just easy to come out here and just
• 25:37
  Speaker 7: focus on football.
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: He was the first person you called or texted when
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: the deal got done.
• 25:41
  Speaker 6: My mom, she said she was just happy.
• 25:46
  Speaker 10: As a blitzer.
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: What what do you think makes you as affective as
• 25:48
  Speaker 6: you are in the going team?
• 25:50
  Speaker 7: My ability to win, So, I mean I know how
• 25:52
  Speaker 7: to win on pastresses and stuff like that, but it's
• 25:54
  Speaker 7: a study that I have to continue to work on.
• 25:56
  Speaker 11: Mike has said that how effective you were the Super Bowl,
• 25:59
  Speaker 11: we seen it an other times, been the Super Bowl especially.
• 26:01
  Speaker 14: He said that that makes him think about maybe using
• 26:04
  Speaker 14: you more.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: In that role.
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: When you think about that, you know what, I mean,
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: whatever you want me to do, I'm gonna be able
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: to do it. So just let me know Coke.
• 26:11
  Speaker 10: Obviously, since it's playing to bring Terran and Terry and Arnold.
• 26:13
  Speaker 11: And do you know him at all? To have you
• 26:16
  Speaker 11: asked about him? What do you expect from him when
• 26:18
  Speaker 11: he when he comes in here and be part of.
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: This dot com?
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: I do?
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: I do know him, you know.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: I did send him at tests and stuff like that,
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: but I haven't got a tence to ask to have
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: a full conversation with him and stuff like that. But yeah, man,
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: I know, I know he could play ball though, and
• 26:29
  Speaker 7: I know he's gonna be easy to, you know, come
• 26:31
  Speaker 7: in with this culture and how we do and the
• 26:33
  Speaker 7: way we go about our business over here. I think
• 26:35
  Speaker 7: it's gonna be easy for him to fall in line,
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: you know, and just adapt to this situation. And I
• 26:38
  Speaker 7: think it's gonna be the best for him. So I
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: can't wait he get him, you know, ready to work
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: with scrub.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: That was Devin Witherspoon, the Seahawks three time Pro Bowl
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: cornerback in all three years he's been in the NFL,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: all talking yesterday after he signed his thirty three million
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: dollar a year deal to be the richest cornerback in
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: NFL history. We'll have him under contract with Seattle through
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: the twenty thirty one season. You heard him talking there
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: at the end about Terry On Arnold. He said he
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: has texted him and been in contact with someone that
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: they envisioned could potentially be starting opposite of Witherspoon. Arnold
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: twenty three years old, raft first round draft pick, as
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: is Witherspoon a couple of years ago of the Detroit Lions.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: The Lions cut him immediately after he was charged with
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: eight felonies related to kidnapping, alleged kidnapping and alleged burglary
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: in Florida. His next court hearing in that case, which
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: could lead to life in prison if he had he'd
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: been convicted on those charges, and next court case for
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: him is October the fifth. The news of the morning
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: is that Mike Garafalo in Ian Rappaport of NFL Network
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: reporting that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is going to put
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: Terry on Arnold on the exemplts as soon as he
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: signs with the Seahawks, which he's yet to do. Last week,
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Joey Lane, the Seahawks' vice president of administration, you heard
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: him on the HOD Knocks episodes referred to by general
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: manager John Schneider telling Mike McDonald that Joey, I mean
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: Joey Lane thinks that Terry on Arnoll would be able
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: to play in the preseason for the Seahawks. That does
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: not sound like it's gonna be the case. Now, if
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: he goes on the exemp list, he can't practice or
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: play until he's off of it. And the exemplest is
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: what Roger Gudo has put players on while they wait
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: the legal process on situations like this. But the Seahawks
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: had reason to believe that when they signed him that
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: he was still gonna be able to play until perhaps
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: the regular season, at least play in the preseason. But
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: that doesn't sound like it's going to be the case.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: So jess when this is an absolute lay away deal
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: for the.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: Seahawks, Yeah, is, And I always I don't know the
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: inner workings of the NFL as well as you do,
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: but I didn't necessarily love this from the start. But
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: looking at his accolades as a player, if I could
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: separate those two things, what an asset he's.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Telling twenty three first round pick. But it does make
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: you wonder if the Lions cut him as quickly as
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: they did. Did they cut him because they didn't think
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: he was as good enough to be worth the trouble
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: to stay with him and keep him under contract during
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: his suspension.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: As you always say all the time, football always wins.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: Football always wins.
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: But perhaps in that situation with the Lions, if they're
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: looking to move forward, it does make sense they had
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: reason to cut him with cause.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: Sure they did, but if his football was that good
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: and football always wins, they may have kept them. And
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: the people I talked to around the Lions friends of
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: mines friend of mine have covered the Lions for a while,
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: indicating that Arnold had some troubles in some of his
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: first two years in coverage, the Lions have troubles in
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: their secondary and they need secondary help. It is somewhat
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: noticeable that the Lions released him so quickly. I mean
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: the day that the charges came out, the next day
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: he was cut. And I mean that's a a firm
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: line that Dan Campbell and his regime are drawing in Detroit.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: But if he was as good as we are all
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: anticipating he may be, or the Seahawks think he is,
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: for them to go through and sign him in amid
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: all his legal troubles, why would the Lions have cut
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: him in the first place. That's greatly right. And now
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: if it is just that they have a line that says,
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: you crossed it eight felonies, you're under investigation, You're gone.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: I laud them for that because there aren't a lot
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: of NFL teams to do that, because football always does
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: win and.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: Dan Campbell doesn't have a record of keeping guys with
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: questionable situations, right, yeah, And so.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: If that's the reason, then hats off to the Lions.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: If that's what they did. The Seahawks obficuely don't have
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: those same reservations. But perhaps the Lions have also reservations
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: about Arnold as a football player. Okay, he's okay, we
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: draft him in the first round. We're going to play him,
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: hopefully gets better the next twos. Oh wait a minute,
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: you want us to play or keep him under contract
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: while he's facing eight fellonies. Well, okay, that's not worth it.
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: I just wonder from being playing Devil's advocate here, but
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: it is now at least makes you think why the
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: Lions cut him so quickly, and why did the Seahawks
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: sign him at why did they have to sign him
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: at this point if they he's gonna be on the
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: exemp list anyway. Well, the answer to that question was
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: they wanted to be at the front of the line.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: We talked about that and a lot of teams in
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: the NFL because they spend so much time on the draft.
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, they spend two three years on a draft.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: It's not like they just at the end of a season,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: go look up some game tape and go to some
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: pro days and all of a sudden they have their
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: draft lists for the coming to spring. They've worked on
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: that draft with like the twenty twenty seven draft, they
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: started working on two or three years ago when those
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: guys were second third year college guys. So scouts and
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: executives start falling in love with guys and especially first
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: round talent. And Mike Donald's already said the Seahawks profess
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: how much they loved Tarron Arnold coming out of Alabama.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: The pattern match coverages that he played at Alabama fit
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: what McDonald likes to do here with the Seahawks. The
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Lions didn't have him playing as much coverage like that,
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: and that the Seahawks believe that Arnold could thrive in
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: their coverage schemes that perhaps the Seahawks were so in
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: love with Arnold coming out of Alabama and didn't get
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: a chance to draft him that they're now going back
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: to that love. And regardless of how he's played in
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: the two years with the Detroit they were going more
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: on scheme fit and then projecting what they saw at Alabama.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: So it's obvious that the Seahawks view him different than
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: the Lions do to be able to sign him and
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: willing to sign him while he goes on the exemp list.
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: I was just gonna say, it's not, you know, a
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: critical deals that they signed him to either correct, so
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: they're not hamstringing themselves on that end.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: And to be technically technical, they haven't signed him yet,
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: oh because he hasn't been here. So if anything were
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: to change or if they got any other afraid that
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: they wouldn't have to go through with it. They have
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: an agreement that he's yet to sign. They're working through
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: and getting him here. And now the word the news
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: this morning, if you missed at the top of the show,
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: is that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was going to put
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: Arnold on the exemp list as soon as he signs,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: which means he won't be able to practice, he won't
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: be able to play in the preseason game, won't play
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: it in the joint practice this Friday at Tennessee. None
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: of that, And all of a sudden, Jessamine, they got
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: this game, the joint practice Friday in Nashville, the second
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: preseason game Sunday night, and then they fly home Monday morning,
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: get home Monday morning, and then they get out a
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: plane Thursday and play their final preseason game Friday night
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: in Kansas City, and then they're done. Then August thirtieth,
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: the cuts from ninety to fifty three, and here we
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: go on with the season. September ninth, it begins. So
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, the time that they could have
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: had honored to see how he would fit on the
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: field is gone. And if they're gonna put him, if
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: the Commission can put him on the exemp list, from
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: the time he signs, it's one hundred percent a lay
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: away deal with the Seahawks signing him to a one
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: year contract. To your point, jess one, your low risk contract,
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: they could he may never play for them if he
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: stays on the exemp list. The entire time that his
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: jurisprudence is going on. If his next if his next
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: hearing isn't until the first week of October, it's conceivable
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: that that case will last the entire season.
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we've seen it time and time again in the
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: NFL too, with you know these things, and like you've
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: always said, football always wins. But in these cases, this
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: is probably one of the more serious potential jailing prison
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: time that we've seen in quite a while. And it
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: I don't know, like the guys can be untouchable, but
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: with this, I.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: Don't know, I just do.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: Here's here's the other thing, and I mentioned this when
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: I areement came last week. The fact that he is
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: on his rookie contract, or was on his rookie contract
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: before he got cut by the Lions. He's still only
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: in his that will be three seasons. The Seahawks retain
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: the right to resign him as a restricted free agent
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: next year, so if the exemp list, essentially it's a suspension.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: If he comes off that list after the season and
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: becomes eligible to play somehow next year, the Seahawks could
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: still have him at restricted free agency costs for next year,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: which would have been the final year of his rookie deal.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: So the Seahawks are really putting down a deposit on
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: a layaway deal either for this year or next year.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: So why did they sign him? Now? That's why on
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: the possibility that first in line and they fell in
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: love with him as a draft pick and hoping they
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: could draft him, and they're first in line, and if
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: he doesn't play this year, they still retain an option
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: to perhaps keep him next year as a restricted free agent.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: How that works is a restricted free agent with service
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: time to become a restrict free agent less than four years.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: The team tenders him a restricted free agency offer. They
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: can do it at different levels, but it's roughly a
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: couple million dollars and you have him exclusive rights to
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: him for that year and it's a one year contract.
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: You could tear it up and do multi year deal
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: like they did with Jake Bobo, who they match to
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: the Jaguars deal with Jake Bobo. But the point is
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: there is more than meets the eye on a one
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: year deal for taron'nald But at the news of the
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: day is that apparently he will not be able to
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: practice or play in the preseason. That the Commissioner. NFO
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Roger Goodo, Commissioner is intending to put him on the
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: exemp list once he does sign with the Seahawks, which
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: has not happened yet. I see it to coming out
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: to text line four nine four five one. Dude, you
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: know what that patch is? The patch they were asking
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: Witherspoon about is for offseason participation in their conditioning program.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: In the three little lines that are under it represent
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: his third year that he got that award. It's an
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: iron Man patch. He's flexing with bisepulging biceps gray on
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: the practice uniforms. It's for guys who do the voluntary
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: those who have great attendance that the voluntary offseason workout
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: program for the Seahawks. If you don't know, now you know.
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm glad you don't finished the sentence.
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: There's some discretion up next. Bud Clark, the rookie safety
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: second round pick, talked to me yesterday right before practice
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: about what his first NFL game experience was. Like, you'll
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: hear from him next on ninety three point three kJ
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: R f M.
• 37:43
  Speaker 10: So, first game, how was that pretty interesting?
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: Actually?
• 37:46
  Speaker 9: You know, I got to see not all the fans
• 37:48
  Speaker 9: are there but it was still loud.
• 37:50
  Speaker 10: What it what was interesting for you?
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: What? Anything you expected you didn't get, anything you didn't
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: expect got.
• 37:55
  Speaker 9: You know, it's a preseason game, so we didn't get
• 37:56
  Speaker 9: too much action on the backside. But I feel like,
• 37:58
  Speaker 9: you know, just being there for my teammates run around.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: To the ball, I feel like it helped a little
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: bit of short You were in deep safety the whole
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: time on Saturday night, for sure, and I have seen
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: you with Nickel sometimes with the ones.
• 38:07
  Speaker 10: How has that gone for you? Inside outs are going
• 38:10
  Speaker 10: back and forth.
• 38:10
  Speaker 9: I feel like it's helping me understand the defense a
• 38:12
  Speaker 9: little bit more.
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: So.
• 38:13
  Speaker 15: I feel like I know what's going on on both sides,
• 38:14
  Speaker 15: so I understand what's going down.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: Mike McDonald was telling us that he's given you as
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: much as you can hand them. Yeah, what have you
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: shown him? You think? What have you learned? And how
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: what have you shown him? In learning everything that I have.
• 38:26
  Speaker 15: The ability to adapt to anything that's going on, you know,
• 38:29
  Speaker 15: just to learn plays. You know, I have the knowledge
• 38:31
  Speaker 15: to understand what's going on.
• 38:33
  Speaker 10: What difference between the inside and outside the corner?
• 38:36
  Speaker 15: You know, not too much difference, you know, But I
• 38:37
  Speaker 15: feel like on the inside. You more in the box,
• 38:39
  Speaker 15: so you know, you got to be ready to get
• 38:40
  Speaker 15: your pass with.
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: So that's what I try to do.
• 38:42
  Speaker 10: How fast is the game and decision making?
• 38:45
  Speaker 15: It's pretty fast, nough more knowing that I have more
• 38:47
  Speaker 15: than one position. But I feel like, you know, once
• 38:48
  Speaker 15: you slow it down, it's way easier than what it is.
• 38:50
  Speaker 15: That's why, you know, I've been trying to understand both
• 38:53
  Speaker 15: both positions to slow everything down.
• 38:55
  Speaker 10: How much did you do that at TCU?
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: I did it.
• 38:57
  Speaker 10: I did it a lot at TCU.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: So I played nickel in and feel safely.
• 39:00
  Speaker 10: Okay, it's a lot.
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah. The other night, what did you notice about how
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: Dallas attacked a deep part of the field and handing
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: off communication to the safety you're back there with all
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: those intricacies that go within a play.
• 39:12
  Speaker 15: I feel like, you know, they took, they took. They
• 39:14
  Speaker 15: capitalized on every chance they had. You know, I feel
• 39:16
  Speaker 15: like they had a couple opportunities where they were opened deep,
• 39:18
  Speaker 15: but they didn't shoot those like you know, open show
• 39:20
  Speaker 15: those guns.
• 39:20
  Speaker 10: You know, So I feel like it was a brittish move.
• 39:22
  Speaker 10: You know how them boys handle their shuit when you're
• 39:24
  Speaker 10: in the deep safety, How much.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Are you wanting to come up and make tackles on
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: runs but having to stay back in irresponsibility?
• 39:32
  Speaker 10: What's that talking?
• 39:33
  Speaker 15: I want to come up a lot, but you know,
• 39:35
  Speaker 15: having such a great D line and great linebacker unit
• 39:38
  Speaker 15: that we have sometimes most of the time you don't
• 39:40
  Speaker 15: get to come down there, you know.
• 39:41
  Speaker 10: So you just play your role.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: I heard you say that my call ye infness when
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: you're on kJ Rbos Street, that you're weird? How are
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: you weird?
• 39:49
  Speaker 15: Just a lot of different things that I like to do,
• 39:51
  Speaker 15: you know, just outside of the football, inside of football.
• 39:53
  Speaker 9: You know, it's just just different different routines.
• 39:56
  Speaker 10: I take, you got your wife and kid out here,
• 39:58
  Speaker 10: I do, they're here.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: They are.
• 40:00
  Speaker 10: How great is that?
• 40:01
  Speaker 15: It's been amazing actually, you know, I feel like it
• 40:03
  Speaker 15: helped me settle down on my head spaced also because
• 40:05
  Speaker 15: you know, just having anything outside the field is being
• 40:07
  Speaker 15: pretty smooth.
• 40:08
  Speaker 10: So it's been on the field.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: What if you learned as a father, he would never
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: have been told or couldn't believe it before.
• 40:15
  Speaker 10: The terrible twos. You know, terrible twos is a thing.
• 40:18
  Speaker 9: But you know, I feel like when you turn three,
• 40:20
  Speaker 9: when they turn three is horrible.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: But he's a blessing.
• 40:23
  Speaker 10: Then three's worse.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: Two.
• 40:25
  Speaker 10: Oh yeah, man, it's crazy.
• 40:26
  Speaker 15: Because he has a knowledge of what's going on, has

• 41:25
  Speaker 15: from college. Also, did the game help bring it all together?
• 41:29
  Speaker 15: Or was it you've had worked on and practiced so much?

  Speaker 10: game the other you know, pretty much.
• 41:57
  Speaker 15: I tried to but I didn't have a two many
• 42:00
  Speaker 15: opportunities on the ball. But I feel like, you know,
• 42:02
  Speaker 15: just being able to listen to him, take his knowledge
• 42:03
  Speaker 15: for his advice, you know, and just applying to the
• 42:06
  Speaker 15: fields helping me a lot.
• 42:07
  Speaker 10: Is there any particular lesson that you've really helped stuck out.
• 42:11
  Speaker 15: To you pretty much, you know, because I'm a ball guy,
• 42:12
  Speaker 15: so he pretty much gave me different techniques about you
• 42:15
  Speaker 15: getting to the ball. So you know, I use those
• 42:17
  Speaker 15: for sure, but we don't mention that about your ball skills.
• 42:20
  Speaker 15: But yet you haven't had a ton And is there
• 42:23
  Speaker 15: a pressure? Do you feel a pressure to make those
• 42:25
  Speaker 15: plays or they just come to you. I feel like
• 42:27
  Speaker 15: they come to me, you know. I feel like watching
• 42:29
  Speaker 15: film and doing different things like that film and my
• 42:32
  Speaker 15: ability mixed world for sure.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: That's Bud Clark, the rookie second round draft pick, talking
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: about his first NFL game. Bud Clark playing deep safety
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: the other night for the Seahawks and didn't get tested
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: by the Cowboys. They were stayed outside in the past game.
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: They ran, they ran stuff underneath, but not really getting
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: back out. To Bud Clark, it's interesting when he said
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: he thought that the three year olds were worse than
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: the quote terrible two is his son, three year old
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: Kenzo fiance Nasha Cooper. They have a three year old son, Kenza.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: I can't remember when my kids were three. They're twenty
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: three now. I don't remember if three year olds are
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: worse than twos four nine, four, five one? Is that
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: true those of you that have young kids still were
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: three year old kids worse than two?
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think every family is different.
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: I don't remember that when it comes to that once,
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: just start talking and opinionated. I guess it's it. All
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: is a blurry three year old a human. Yeah, three
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: year old's worse than two. That's a good question I
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: should have. I'm gonna ask my wife that tonight. Yeah, one,
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: four or five one? Do you remember your three year olds?
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: If your parents out there, you remember your three year
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: olds being tougher to handle than your two year olds?
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: Interesting question for.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: This had at once, so that might be a little different.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: I did. We had twins and that's the only ones
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: we had, so we didn't know any better. But yeah,
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: i'd be interested your parents out there. Is that true?
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: Is Bud Carkwright three year olds are tougher to manage
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: than two year olds?
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: Well, they can run. At that point, pretty.

• 48:14
  Speaker 16: Hey, thanks for having us. Appreciate it.
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: You're welcome. I've read I read my colleague Tyler Wick
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: story in the News Tribune the quoted you just saying
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: this is the summer of their lives. Can you talk
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: us through the joy on the kids' faces and just
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: the joy you felt this whole process and then when
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: they get the third out of the regional final to
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: get to Williamsport.
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was.
• 48:37
  Speaker 12: It was magical, I guess to say to say it best, obviously,
• 48:41
  Speaker 12: it's it's a long season, it's a long postseason. We
• 48:44
  Speaker 12: had some ups and some downs both at state and
• 48:46
  Speaker 12: then again in regionals and played kind of starting Regionals,
• 48:48
  Speaker 12: had a couple stinker of games against Oregon and pulled
• 48:52
  Speaker 12: out that win, but then just played a bad one
• 48:54
  Speaker 12: against Idaho. So, you know, just getting to the end
• 48:58
  Speaker 12: of that whole process and and getting the punch out
• 49:01
  Speaker 12: there to end the game in San Bernardino, I think
• 49:04
  Speaker 12: there was a little bit of a relief of relief
• 49:06
  Speaker 12: on these guys his faces. I think that they knew
• 49:08
  Speaker 12: they're good enough to do it. It just was a
• 49:11
  Speaker 12: matter of going out and getting it done. And you know,
• 49:14
  Speaker 12: I don't think we really had any doubt in our
• 49:15
  Speaker 12: minds after the first game against Idaho, but you know,
• 49:18
  Speaker 12: it definitely makes you start thinking.
• 49:20
  Speaker 16: So for them to finish it out, it was awesome.
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: Are they all twelve year old? Do you have any
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: eleven year olds in your team? We do not.
• 49:27
  Speaker 16: Nope, this team is all twelves this year.
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 49:31
  Speaker 16: Yeah, just kind of kind of the way it worked out.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, it's a lot of pressure to be on
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: national television and twelve years old playing trying to throw strikes,
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: trying to hit a baseball. How did they deal with it?
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: You do you get it to do outings? You take
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: them on Pizzo? How do you get them away from
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: the game so it's not just ball ball ball all
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: the time?
• 49:50
  Speaker 12: That's I mean, they've done a pretty good job here
• 49:52
  Speaker 12: at Williams Sports so far, just kind of helping us
• 49:55
  Speaker 12: through that process. There's just a lot of other things
• 49:57
  Speaker 12: that we have to do that kind of take your
• 49:58
  Speaker 12: mind off of, you know, throwing and catching and swinging,
• 50:03
  Speaker 12: you know. Down at Sam Bernardino, Gosh, it was we
• 50:06
  Speaker 12: had a couple days off almost between every game, so
• 50:08
  Speaker 12: as we were looking for things to do to kind
• 50:09
  Speaker 12: of occupy our time. So we practiced every day, we
• 50:12
  Speaker 12: hit every day, but then we just kind of hung
• 50:14
  Speaker 12: out as a team and uh, you know, just just
• 50:17
  Speaker 12: took it easy, just tried to tried to bond.
• 50:19
  Speaker 16: It's been a long summer. These guys know each.
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: Other really really well.
• 50:22
  Speaker 12: Now you know, they're all sleeping in one room and
• 50:25
  Speaker 12: so it's you know that that part of it's been fun.
• 50:28
  Speaker 12: The nerves part, I don't know. I don't know how
• 50:30
  Speaker 12: these guys do it. I think that us as Coasters
• 50:31
  Speaker 12: are more nervous than they are. They know, they don't
• 50:33
  Speaker 12: really seem to be two faced by it. So we'll
• 50:35
  Speaker 12: see what happens tomorrow. With the stands filled up and
• 50:37
  Speaker 12: obviously the beautiful setting here, hopefully they can keep their composure.
• 50:41
  Speaker 12: But the other team's gonna be fighting the same jitters
• 50:43
  Speaker 12: as we are, so it'll probably bounce out.
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: So you went straight from Sam Bernardino to Williamsport. Did
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: you even come home? Yeah?
• 50:50
  Speaker 12: We played, Yeah, we played the championship game down there
• 50:52
  Speaker 12: on Thursday night, had Friday off to kind of pack
• 50:56
  Speaker 12: our stuff and then the bus picked us up at
• 50:58
  Speaker 12: the hotel at six.
• 50:58
  Speaker 16: Am and we were in the air probably but I
• 51:00
  Speaker 16: think by nine to fifteen.
• 51:01
  Speaker 12: So pretty cool experience though for the kids, you know,
• 51:05
  Speaker 12: the Mountain and the West Champions also were down there
• 51:08
  Speaker 12: in San Bernardino, and so we all three teams hopped
• 51:10
  Speaker 12: on the charter flight, you know, straight to the airport.
• 51:13
  Speaker 12: We don't have to go through traditional security and all that,
• 51:15
  Speaker 12: and then we actually got to fly directly into Williamsport,
• 51:18
  Speaker 12: which is not open almost to general population, is what
• 51:21
  Speaker 12: they tell me.
• 51:22
  Speaker 16: So that's pretty cool.
• 51:23
  Speaker 12: Other teams had to land someplace else and then take
• 51:25
  Speaker 12: a four hour bus ride once they landed. So pretty
• 51:27
  Speaker 12: cool for us to be able to land right in Williamsport,
• 51:29
  Speaker 12: hop on a bus and we were here at the
• 51:30
  Speaker 12: complex within you know, twenty minutes.
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: So you packed up coach coach kyli Arbor joining us.
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: Sound they Little League to Coleman, that's in the Little
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: League World Series. He's called talking to us from Williamsport, Pennsylvania,
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: Little League World Series. Sorry, I understand you got to
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: leave in a few minutes for a parade. Did you fundraised,
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: did you have car washes? What did you do knowing
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: that you could go from San Bernardino straight to Williamsport.
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: And does the Little National Little League Federation start kicking
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: in money when you do advance? Yeah?
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: They.
• 52:00
  Speaker 16: It's definitely a costly endeavor for families.
• 52:03
  Speaker 12: I mean, you know, obviously time off of work for
• 52:04
  Speaker 12: parents to be able to attend the games and just
• 52:06
  Speaker 12: all that stuff. But yeah, once we qualified after state,
• 52:12
  Speaker 12: our travel to San Bernardino was covered by Little League International.
• 52:15
  Speaker 12: Our hotel and food and all that stuff was covered
• 52:17
  Speaker 12: by Little League International, and then same thing coming to
• 52:19
  Speaker 12: Williams Sports.
• 52:20
  Speaker 16: They covered all that and took care of all of that.
• 52:21
  Speaker 12: But yeah, I guess where the difficulty comes in is
• 52:24
  Speaker 12: just in the parents, you know, just getting last minute
• 52:26
  Speaker 12: airfare to San Bernardino and then last minute airfare at
• 52:28
  Speaker 12: home and then they.
• 52:29
  Speaker 16: Flew out here, so it does start to rack up
• 52:32
  Speaker 16: for them.
• 52:33
  Speaker 12: Our Little League has put out a fundraiser, a ze
• 52:36
  Speaker 12: Fie fundraiser that has done okay, you know, to help
• 52:38
  Speaker 12: offset some of those costs. The community has been really supportive,
• 52:41
  Speaker 12: which we're appreciated ab of. But yeah, it definitely does
• 52:43
  Speaker 12: get expensive.
• 52:44
  Speaker 16: But we were happy to be out.
• 52:46
  Speaker 12: Here doing our best, and you know, these can be
• 52:49
  Speaker 12: memories these guys are gonna make for the rest of
• 52:50
  Speaker 12: their lives, So I think it's probably worth it.
• 52:53
  Speaker 4: Kyle.
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: Big picture, I talk a lot. My kids were in
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: U sports as well, and I talk a lot about
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: U sports and we epidemic of parental involvement and how
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: a lot of people don't want to do what you
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: do and volunteer your time to coach youth because of
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: all the parental involvement and the professionalization of sports and
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: all of that. You know, the deal, What has your
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: experience been and what has this run done to maybe
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: dispel the notion that that's all you sports.
• 53:18
  Speaker 12: Is Well, my experience has been positive, you know, and
• 53:25
  Speaker 12: I know that's not everybody's experience, but uh, I think
• 53:28
  Speaker 12: and I could I could probably speak maybe a little
• 53:30
  Speaker 12: bit more to Little League in general versus like travel
• 53:33
  Speaker 12: and club baseball, which is a different animal. Little League
• 53:36
  Speaker 12: in general is they're very strict in their rules, and
• 53:39
  Speaker 12: it starts at districts. It's there's there's the whole no
• 53:43
  Speaker 12: contact with the players or coaches once they take the
• 53:45
  Speaker 12: field thing, and there they will hammer you on that.
• 53:47
  Speaker 16: So and then that that plays its way all the
• 53:50
  Speaker 16: way through. I mean you you know, you'll a coach.
• 53:52
  Speaker 16: A coach will be ejected as well as the.
• 53:54
  Speaker 12: Player if if they're communicating with people outside of the field,
• 53:58
  Speaker 12: and so just from from that that perspective, it does
• 54:00
  Speaker 12: a good job of keeping it to just the kids
• 54:02
  Speaker 12: on the field, which is what people want to see,
• 54:03
  Speaker 12: and then just the coaches helping those kids.
• 54:06
  Speaker 16: But I mean, more broadly.
• 54:08
  Speaker 12: Speaking, specifically for our little league, or a least for
• 54:10
  Speaker 12: my teams that I've coached in Little League, I've had
• 54:12
  Speaker 12: nothing but supportive parents. I think, you know, if you
• 54:14
  Speaker 12: if you outline it early on kind of what the
• 54:17
  Speaker 12: expectations are and kind of hold your ground, I think
• 54:19
  Speaker 12: most people are willing to toe the line and follow
• 54:22
  Speaker 12: the rules. Of course, you get those outliers that make
• 54:25
  Speaker 12: it difficult for everybody, but my experience hasn't hasn't been
• 54:29
  Speaker 12: that I've had any of those, So it's been generally
• 54:31
  Speaker 12: pretty positive.
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: That's great. And how did you get into this? I'm
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: assuming you were a coach of a little league team
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: and then became an All Star team coach or how
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: did you get to this?
• 54:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 54:41
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean I just started coaching twenty seventeen or so,
• 54:45
  Speaker 12: just pre COVID because I you know, my job didn't
• 54:48
  Speaker 12: allow me to be with my kids on the field
• 54:49
  Speaker 12: as much as I wanted to, so figured I could
• 54:52
  Speaker 12: coach and set the schedule and be part of it.
• 54:54
  Speaker 16: And then that just kind of morphed into all this.
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: So here we are.
• 54:57
  Speaker 12: You know, was that seven eight years, nine years later
• 54:59
  Speaker 12: or whatever? But yeah, just the regular season little league
• 55:02
  Speaker 12: coach coach the Major's team down here in Tacoma. There's
• 55:05
  Speaker 12: eight of us, eight majors coaches and uh and from
• 55:08
  Speaker 12: that they select the all star coach and then the
• 55:10
  Speaker 12: teams are formed and off we go.
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: So and so your kids are grown beyond little league
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: gage now yep.
• 55:17
  Speaker 12: This My youngest is twelve, so this is his last season.
• 55:20
  Speaker 12: My oldest aged out a couple of years ago. So yeah,
• 55:22
  Speaker 12: final final run for the little league and then it's
• 55:24
  Speaker 12: all over. So that's that's another reason we're just trying
• 55:26
  Speaker 12: to really soak it all in because he's great.
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: I mean it truly is.
• 55:29
  Speaker 12: This is the last stop, you know, and these guys
• 55:31
  Speaker 12: here in Williamsport have done a really good job of that,
• 55:34
  Speaker 12: kind of calming everybody down or asking us to calm
• 55:37
  Speaker 12: down a little bit and just saying, hey, listen, you've
• 55:38
  Speaker 12: made it through districts, you've made it through state, you've
• 55:40
  Speaker 12: made it through regionals.
• 55:41
  Speaker 16: There is no place else to go, So enjoy your time.
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: Here, you know what I mean.
• 55:45
  Speaker 12: Just soak it all in because because in two weeks
• 55:48
  Speaker 12: you're back to school and it's all over.
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, you have the parade today. What else off
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: the field are they doing for the boys and keep
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: them having fun?
• 55:57
  Speaker 12: Oh well, I mean just yesterday was like Disneyland, right
• 56:00
  Speaker 12: they we we went down and they outfitted them with
• 56:02
  Speaker 12: all the Adidas gear and the Rawlings gear and the jerseys,
• 56:05
  Speaker 12: and I mean it was it was that was pretty cool,
• 56:07
  Speaker 12: pretty cool to see, so, you know, and then there's
• 56:09
  Speaker 12: they have a game room here on the they call
• 56:11
  Speaker 12: it the Grove, which is kind of where the dorms
• 56:13
  Speaker 12: and stuff are. They've got a game room with video
• 56:15
  Speaker 12: games in ping pong and and there, you know a
• 56:17
  Speaker 12: lot of kids are out there doing that pin trading,
• 56:19
  Speaker 12: which I was unaware of.
• 56:20
  Speaker 16: I knew there were pins, but I didn't know how.
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: Big it was.
• 56:23
  Speaker 16: Uh, but Little League pin trading.
• 56:24
  Speaker 12: Is apparently a thing, and uh, there's people from all
• 56:27
  Speaker 12: over the world just it's an international tournament and they're
• 56:29
  Speaker 12: trading pins and they don't speak the same language, but
• 56:31
  Speaker 12: they're they're figuring out how to do it, so it's
• 56:33
  Speaker 12: kind of cool awesome.
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: Well, I know you have to run, but can you
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: give us your schedule, your game schedule here the next
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: couple of days and where we can watch you.
• 56:40
  Speaker 12: Yeah, it's gonna be on ESPN tomorrow at three pm Eastern,
• 56:45
  Speaker 12: so I think it's noon noon back home. And then
• 56:47
  Speaker 12: we'll play in the Southeast Champion, which is a team
• 56:49
  Speaker 12: from Alabama, and I think they look pretty good, so uh,
• 56:52
  Speaker 12: we'll see how that goes, and then win or lose.
• 56:54
  Speaker 12: I think it's like, if you lose, you play Saturday.
• 56:56
  Speaker 12: If you win, you play Friday or something. So but
• 56:58
  Speaker 12: we're just we got to those folks on tomorrow and
• 57:00
  Speaker 12: they'll figure out the rest from there. So yeah, it's
• 57:03
  Speaker 12: gonna be a good time looking forward to ready to
• 57:04
  Speaker 12: play some baseball and stop doing all the procedural stuff.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: So are you miked up? We get to hear you
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: during the broadcast.
• 57:11
  Speaker 16: I think so.
• 57:12
  Speaker 12: Yeah, they will probably ask we were micd up down
• 57:15
  Speaker 12: to San Bernardino, So you're gonna mind my p's and q's.
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: I'm sure that will be do Kyle. I know I
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: appreciate you taking the time out, all the best you got,
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: the entire Northwest behind you, and just most of all,
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: have fun and thanks for doing what you do. Thanks
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: for doing it and serving us.
• 57:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, no, our pleasure.
• 57:31
  Speaker 16: Thanks Greg for having us appreciate it.
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Kyle. Coach Kyle Yarborough from the Tacomas Soundview
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: Little League, the All star team the twelve year olds
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: have won the Northwest Region went straight from San Bernardino
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: to Williamsport, Pennsylvania, where they will play tomorrow against the
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: Southeast winner from Alabama in the first game of the
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: Little League World Series. It's at noon start on ESPN.
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: As you heard coach Carr Yarborough say, that's a really
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: cool deal for twelve year old kids.
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: To trade pacing.
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's cool to hear him say, yeah, I
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: know club ball and it can get wild, but he
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: hasn't experienced that. That's really coo.
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I just I think that is the coolest thing.
• 58:10
  Speaker 4: When I played Junior Olympic volleyball before in high school,
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: I met people from all over the country and then
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: we did have some international opponents, and that's exactly what
• 58:21
  Speaker 4: we did. We did share snacks and try to figure
• 58:24
  Speaker 4: out what each other was talking about, even if we
• 58:27
  Speaker 4: didn't speak the same language and didn't know their traditions.
• 58:30
  Speaker 4: I'm like, I don't know, here's some Intimates cookies and well,
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: here's some papoosas, and you know, everything was always just
• 58:39
  Speaker 4: so good and I think it's such a good experience
• 58:41
  Speaker 4: for young kids.
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: That's really And what else is really cool about that
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: is the international bracket is on one side of the tournament,
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: the US brackets on the other side. So if they're
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: worried about competitiveness or hey, we're playing you tomorrow, I'm
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: not talking to you that kind of stuff. The international
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: teams and American teams can mix and mingle and hang
• 58:59
  Speaker 2: out and go to pizzas and the arcades and stuff
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: together because they don't play each other till you're twelve.
• 59:06
  Speaker 3: And you're twelve, like, just be friends. This is what
• 59:09
  Speaker 3: this is what sports are about.
• 59:11
  Speaker 4: When you're in that age bracket, it's supposed to be
• 59:14
  Speaker 4: fun and not overbearing.
• 59:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's really cool. In the city of Williams, Port
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: of the town, it's really a town in central Pennsylvania
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: really opens it up. The doors literally of the town
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: open up for the kids who fly in there. Yeah.
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: I mean you heard him say how cool it was
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: just to fly a direct correctly in. Yeah, like a
• 59:33
  Speaker 2: big shot like their movie stars or pop stars touring
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: concerts and flying straight into these tiny airports. Yeah.
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: I wonder if they were like swag on the plane,
• 59:43
  Speaker 4: you know, if they went Aj Barner at the Super
• 59:45
  Speaker 4: Bowl parade or something.
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: Or just getting the Adena swag, the Adenas gear yesterday, Yeah,
• 59:51
  Speaker 2: tournament gear. I know, kids at twelve years old, that's
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: huge merch like that. They love that. My kids twenty
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: three love that stuff still. That would be really cool.
• 59:59
  Speaker 4: I know I brought you guys to the lounge on
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 4: the way to the Army Navy game and he was
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 4: blown away.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah you know he he loves that stuff at twenty three.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: So you can imagine twelve year olds and that's cool.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, the we'll remember this for the rest of
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: their lives. All they should, Yes, obviously, so if you
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: have a chance. And we hate that it's somewhat professionalized
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: that it's on live national television, but it's also really
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: cool for those kids.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 4: They do have fun with it, like the broadcast does
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 4: a really good job, like ESPN is actually really good
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 4: at letting them be kids.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they'll show who their favorite player and major
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: league player is, or who their favorite ice cream flavor.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 4: Is, substitute teacher they have a crush on. I think
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 4: that's the funniest is that kid shot his shot man.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: That's tomorrow at noon soundview Little League from Tacoma carrying
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: the Northwest banner as a Northwest Region champion. They're in

• 1:01:22
  Speaker 3: He's frugal, he's frugal.
• 1:01:26

• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: he's out here with him with his fiance at training camp.

  Speaker 2: Dodts text line saying that Bud Clark is right. Yes,
• 1:01:46

  Speaker 13: Either Greg and Jessman. I really hope, as a lifelong
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 13: Mariners fan that probably cares more about this team than
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 13: the damn owners, that they move on from the Jerry
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 13: to Poto era after the season is over, because we're
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 13: not making the playoffs. Even in the most down year
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 13: in the American League probably in my lifetime, we're still
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 13: gonna miss the playoffs. This is ridiculous and beyond a

• 1:03:37
  Speaker 2: the show, Friend of the station. The Alabama team of
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: the Little League World Series that Takoma Soundview plays tomorrow
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: has a good a great story too. They're best players.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: A girl, best picture plays shortstop. That second really cool.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: Her dad is former Major league player kolbe Rathmus.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 3: Amazing.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 4: That's really cool. Yeah, well we've seen that too. There
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 4: was a big deal made about the picture her name
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 4: is escaping me right now. When she was kind of
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 4: the first woman girl.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 3: She was a girl at the time.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 4: Who made the Little League World Series as well, and
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 4: she was I want to say Monique Davis, but I
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 4: might be wrong.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: Speaking of women inside the diamond. Last night, it was
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: at a fundraiser in Mill Creek for a girls softball team.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: Friend of mine and I used to coach with him,
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: is now a coach at this team. They had a
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: fundraiser and I was there and it was right behind
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: me was Danielle Laurie. Oh to ever do it?
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: Dang?
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she held court with a bunch of the media.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 4: Did you get to try to hit it against her? No?
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: No, I remember that. Yeah, they did do a media
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 2: thing at you dubs up. I was working at the
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: University of Washington when she was playing there, so I
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: became acquainted with her and many stories about her and
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: her daughter was at the Little League World Series for softball,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: the girls softball last week or I think it was
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: last week or two when she was there too, so
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: that yeah. I remember in my old U dub days
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: I mentioned about Roger Goodell mentioning that he thinks there's
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: going to be a super Bowl played outside of the
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: United States four to two five, So that the day
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: the Super bowls played outside the USA is the day
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: I'm done with the National Football League. Cadel is taking
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: jobs and income away from American taxpayers are fund in
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: most of these stadiums, plus takes taxes away from the
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: local bars, restaurants, and hotels. That's true, there's some truth
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: to that. I asked Bud Clark about his three year
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: old son, Kenzo, He's fiance. They're out here now, settled
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: in Seattle, now that the Seahawks have drafted me. He
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 2: laughed and said, man, the three year olds are way
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: worse than the quote Terrible twos. He's got an opinion
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 2: about everything, and the reaction of the text lot I
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: think is unanimous that he is right, is it? Quinn
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: two five three? Yes, we have a three year old
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: about to turn four. The fun is more fun at
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: three versus two years old, but the obstinate moments are
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: aggressively more difficult. We have three two oh six. We
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 2: have three kids who are adults now, but when they
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: were toddlers, they were all worse behaved at age three
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: than at age two. The Terrible twos were bad. But
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: I remember being shocked at how the threes were even
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: worse than by age four or five. They meddle out
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: a bit, but still terrors into their mid twenties. By
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: their mid twenties than his whole Southern state issues. I
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 2: believe me. Just trust me on that. I can't remember
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 2: twos and threes, but I'm living twenty three. You're still parenting.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, I hear you. And then you get grandkids
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 3: and then you got to do it all over again.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 4: Eventually, By the way, I said, Monique, I met Money Davis.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 3: That's what I was thinking of.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, thank you, Donnie from the two five to
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: three now Tacoma Pierce County Way where sound views from
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: The only thing worse than a three year old is
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: coaching ten, five and six year olds and T ball.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, t balls. You gotta have some patience to
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: be a T ball coach. You got to even just
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 2: to direct them to run to first base.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 4: I mean, do you ever watch those compilation videos of
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 4: kids who have no idea what they're doing?
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's most of the kids at that age, right, Yeah.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 3: Yes, Oh it's fun, it's fun.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 4: But yeah, I'm glad that people relate to Bud Clark
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 4: talking about it.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: Yes, the four two five dad of three kids, seven
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: four and ten months, hats off to you, sir, seven
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: four and ten months, can confirm, can confirm quote threeen
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: agers are harder. We hadn't heard that one before.
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that term.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because then they can, like they have all their
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 4: autonomy of movement. They don't need to you know, be
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 4: in you know, a seat or a stroller. They can
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 4: just run and then that talk, that's kind.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: Of what he's alluding to here. He said. Two year
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: olds are still little kids who throw tantrums, but they
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: are controllable and easily distracted.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't shake car keys in front of a
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 4: three year old, and I expect that the tantrum goes away.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 2: But I'll tell you what, nothing is more tiring than
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: an eleven month old that won't sit still and you
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 2: can't leave alone. I remember those days more than I
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: remember twos and threes. I didn't sleep a whole night
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: until my twins were four years old. My wife slept
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 2: soundly because she was exhausted working full time at children's hospital, parenting, nursing,
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: the whole thing. And so she's smoked, and so when
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: she goes to bed at like eight or five, ye,
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 2: she's done until the next morning. Year. So those kids
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 2: the minute one and I'm just breaking all the rules
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: of parenting twins. The minute one would peep, I would
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: run into their room. To this day, I can't sleep
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: soundly because of this, but I'd run into the room
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 2: so that the other one wouldn't wake up because they're
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: both up and mom's sleep and you're done as a dad.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: You're finished at three am. So I was always trying
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 2: to keep one of them asleep, so I would rushing
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: to get the other. I didn't have a full night
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: sleep for four years. My job was pretty good that way.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 2: People were like, hey, what'd you do in Tampa? I slept?
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 4: Yes, oh my gosh, yourself. Yes, yes, I have that
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 4: with the cubs too. And I'm like, I can't clean
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 4: right now. I can't do the dishes, I can't empty
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 4: the dishwasher, I can't dust.
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 3: You know what, I am going to bed, yes.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 2: Bud Clark is one right to two five three said
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: threes are so much worse than twos because by age
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 2: three they start to want some independence, but they can't
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 2: do much. By themselves. Everything is a battle.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 4: It's a good way to put yeah, welcome and good
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 4: luck at uh four dude, because there's a lot more
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 4: vocabulary coming down the pike.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 2: Two five three. I currently have a three year old,
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: and he's ten times worse when he was than when
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: he was two. The tantrums are greater combined with the
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: periods of unwillingness to listen or just over the top. Yeah, man,
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: I've been there, don't.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 4: I don't have that experience, but I do as an ANTI,
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 4: and I'm well aware of everything that entails.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: Should probably appreciate you just taking over and helping them out.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 4: I love being an ANTI because I fly in, I
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 4: spoil the crap out of them. Then that becomes their
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 4: new expectation, and then I, uh, you know, read them
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 4: to bed, and then I fly out.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: Two five, Greg, you keep referring to the Arnold deal
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: as a layaway deal. I think there's a large chunk
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: of your listeners that don't know what a layaway is.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: Maybe you should explain that and ed kmartin with it. Yeah,
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 2: that's true. You are layaways gone.
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 3: No, there's I think there's things that do it. There
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: are companies that do it.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: It used to be that you could buy a product.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it was maybe a brand new television or computer
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: that hadn't come in yet, but you put down money
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: for it, but you pick it up later.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: They charged an axorbitant price.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: It's usually a layoway fee of ye up charge of
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: some kind, but it was it would you can put
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: it on lay away, meaning you buy it but then
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: not be able to take it home or use it
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: till either it came in, maybe something was out of stock.
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 2: It was a really popular item, you'd buy it but
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 2: then have it on lay away to pick up later.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know how many people now in the days
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: of Amazon and being able to deliver it in an hour.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but some people don't have the capital right up front,
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 4: and they do have some layaway companies. I do believe
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 4: that they still have that, I've seen them. But the
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 4: thing is you end up because you're paying monthly, you
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 4: end up paying.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 3: A lot more.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, or any other any other credit type of deal.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 2: Keep a little bit of that. But to suffice to
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: say that my point about the Seahawks is they'd be
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: paying up front and perhaps getting in the front of
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: the line to have their money in on Arnold, first signed,
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 2: yet not be able to use them and not be
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: able to have the product. That's what I meant by
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: the layaway. But thanks if people. Maybe I'm dating myself
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 2: with the term lay away, but that's no.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: They're still commercials.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 4: I mean layaway is I maybe a little antiquated, but
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 4: it's still the same thing. Maybe they call it something
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 4: else because of the stigma that was built around it.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: Hey, this is this is really cool from the three
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 2: to six. Oh thank you. This is not for my
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: wife or anyone I know. Okay, the best radio sports
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 2: program in the land, the balance of pro college, military,

• 1:12:39
  Speaker 2: that term first Cabin. Factual information, feel good stories, insight
• 1:12:43

• 1:12:51

• 1:13:18
  Speaker 2: couldn't mention you were hired by kJ R or something
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 2: because it wasn't official yet. I wasn't.

• 1:14:04
  Speaker 4: makes you.

  Speaker 2: Cowboys in the national radio for you?
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 14: Fun is very much out of my normal comfort zone.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 14: I hadn't done a football game in a while, but
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 14: and certainly I had never done an NFL game. So
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 14: that was a thrill just to do that, being that
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 14: booth and and look down and call it. I I'm
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 14: just gonna Husky fans, You're lucky to have Cam.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: He's so good. I mean, he is he I think with.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 14: An analyst, I want an analyst that doesn't tell me
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 14: what just happened. I want to tell me why and
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 14: how it happened and see like and and that's why
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 14: I've been really lucky this the last twelve months, you know,
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 14: doing some crack and TV games, when Fortlin, when John
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 14: Frolzan's been out, JT. Brown's really good, Eddie Olcheck's the best.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 14: And that's what those guys tell you, you know, like,
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 14: and that's what Cam was. Yeah, It's like Cam will say, hey,
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 14: you know he saw this. It was a stick er
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 14: oute here and that's what he saw, like I call
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 14: the game, I've told you what's happened. At least if
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 14: I'm doing my job and I don't know, i'd be debatable.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 14: But if I could, like that should be the play
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 14: and then analysts tell you what, how and why right?
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 14: And Cam's just and he does it succinctly.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: It was funny.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 14: The guy asked me how many times we'd work together.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 14: I talked to the executive producer. He asked, we have
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 14: times we work together? I said, on a play by
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 14: play call in an NFL game. He said, yeah, I
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 14: go never and he said, he goes, how many games
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 14: have you guys done together? I said none. I'm a koog,
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 14: he's a husky. We don't do college games together either.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 14: He said, wow, okay, I said, well, I said, is
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 14: Cam's just really good at reading the play by play guy,
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 14: stopping when he needs to, not stepping on you. He's
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 14: just really good, man, I had.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 2: I had a ton of fun with him.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 3: I was.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 14: It was really and I like Cam. We've known each
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 14: other for a long a lot of a lot of years,
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 14: and I really like him as well. So for me,
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 14: that was kind of cool to do it with somebody
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 14: like that. Who I like and I respect, and so yeah,
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 14: it was. It was a ton of I have no
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 14: idea what happened in the game. I was telling Greg
