  Speaker 1: What's your what's your process of time with with Connor job. Yeah,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, more more stuff. He's tough, certainly
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: lefties and and uh, you know c J. What we
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: what we saw from the all spring was we're solid
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Avs and and uh, you know what we saw with
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: with him against Adam there in the seventh or eighth
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: was it was another great at bat, but moremon stuff
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Brighty's and leftish.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Dan Wilson answering the question from a nosy Ryan Devish
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: last night about why he pinched it for Luke Rayley
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: with the bases loaded, one out his hottest hitter and
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: brought the ice cold Connor Joe off the bench to
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: strike out on three pitches against an all star reliever
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: and Adrian moral hoone. That is one of the problems
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: I had with Dan's managing last night, but it's not
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: the only one. You know, I'm trying to I'm you
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: know you you obviously know Ashley. A lot of people
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: listening probably remember I had some problems with Dan last
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: year and his in game man and certainly we had
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: some problems in the postseason as well. And I haven't
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: been too critical this year, but there are a couple
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: of things that I just I'm just that's That's one
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: we've already talked about it. I mean, I believe in
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: the numbers two. I believe in lefty righty two. But
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I also believe in gut feel. I also believe in
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: trusting my hottest hitter versus an ice cold guy that
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: hasn't had a hit in a year. Absolutely no, I
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: gotta believe in that too. I got to be able
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: to pull that trigger and not just oh, lefty versus righty,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: righty versus lefty. I just that's not managing. That is
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: that's just following a spreadsheet.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Well, as you say, there's got to be some sort
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: of a gut field for it, right.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's got to be incorporated for sure.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: The other thing is, and you know I've harped about
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: this a lot, we have got to stop treating our
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: top four five relievers like we can only pitch them
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: when we're winning or tied. I mean, the Mariners' bullpen
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: one of three teams under sixty innings pitched so far
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: this season. So we haven't been over using these guys.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: And last night, you're trying to win a series, are
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: you not? And or excuse me. You're trying to win
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: a game in the series, You're trying to salvage something
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: out of the series, and you fall by four to nothing,
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: you get two runs, You've got all the momentum. And
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: this all happened in a short period of time. So
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I spent a lot of time yelling at Dan Wilson
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: at the television screen last night from the pinch hit
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: to then I'm like, Castile is still on the mound.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: You just got back into the game. It's four to two,
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: and so then Castillo starts and of course he gets
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: into trouble, and then we go to Cole Wilcox, who
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: has to be in the conversation for our least reliable reliever.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's got a lot of promise, and I
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: trust that we'll be able to use him in high
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: leverage roles at some point in his career. But right now,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: it's just like, oh, well, portray Ling, gotta put in
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: legu Mina or Wilcox. We don't have really a choice. No,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: you do have a choice, because you know what San
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Diego has in their pen. You can't allow them to
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: score another run if you're gonna win this game, and
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: you're not gonna go to one of your best guys.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, let me run this, run this through for you.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: I get you don't use Munos there, right, But then again,
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: he's only pitched once in the last five days. He
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: the nicest person in the world. Just put Dan Wilson
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: on blast yesterday. I'm not pitching enough. I'm not pitching enough.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: I'm not getting into my rhythm. He said it before
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: the game started. That's that's as battle. As far as
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: androws Munjos will go and call him out his manager.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: He's pitched once in the last five days, Brash has
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: pitched once in the last five days, Spiers pitched once
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: in the last six days, and Ferrera has pitched once
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: in the last four days. To one batter, right, Like,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: you've got to get these guys some work. You've got
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: to get them into a rhythm. They're doing well. They
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: have a two point nine oh eer eight. We have
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: a good bullpen, and yet whenever we're down, whether it's
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: one run or two runs, it's just well, we don't
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: have a choice. Got to use one of our worst guys.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Can't put one of our better guys in there because
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: we might need them tomorrow.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Well, and if you need them tomorrow, can they not
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: go back to back days?
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: That's four guys plus Criswell's worked one inning in the
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: last seven days. So I just look, Dan Wilson's not
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: a great endgame manager, but his his strength is his
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: managing of players and getting the most out of them.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: And you've got your closer sitting there telling you I'm
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: not pitching enough. Yeah, and yet here you go another opportunity.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: We got back into the game in the sixth. There
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: are still three innings to go, so we've got to
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: score in the next couple of innings before that monster
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: comes in in the ninth, and we can't give up
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: another run. We need to use one of the Brash
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: didn't pitch the night before. Farrera didn't pitch Forrere pitch
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: till one batter the night before. How are those two
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: guys not available? They can only pitch if we're tied
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: or winning by one, because if we're winning by three,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: we don't use them either. Right, it's this narrow little window.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, you've got to feel the season. You got
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: to feel your players, you got to feel the situation,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: you got to feel the game. You got to do
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: some stuff with your gut that doesn't just go by
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: some book that you've got underneath the dugout bench.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it shouldn't be just black and white.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: There be And I'll tell you another thing. You're not
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: exactly getting the most out of your players, which is
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: supposed to be what you do well. I got Josh
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Naylor looking disinterested last night trying to catch a ball
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: from Luis Castillo. I got Julio that doesn't run out
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: every to first base anymore. And I got a reliever
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: who's the nicest human being on the planet telling me
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: before the game, I'm not pitching enough. Do you not
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: communicate with Andres Munos to find out what it is
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: that he would like to do in order to get
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: back onto his game? And I would imagine all four
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: of them feel the exact same way. I'm not pitching enough.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: I realize we're not on a roll winning every single night,
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: but that means maybe sometimes in the sixth trailing by two,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: when you've established momentum, you've grabbed momentum for the first
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: time in the game, then maybe you know throw out
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: a ferair in that situation to try to keep it
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: four to two, and give yourself a chance. You don't
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: want to do it with munos, fine, you want to
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: sacred couple cows, fine, but you can't do it with
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: four or five guys. Well, we got five guys we
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: won't use unless we're winning by a runner tied. Really,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: how are you gonna get through the season that way?
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: I don't think you can.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: Also, though, if they're telling you they're not pitching enough,
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: then that's that's the thing.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: That you got to listen to.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying doing it a lot, Believe me. I
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: believe following the book to it for most of the time.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: But there are occasions that pop up where you've got
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: to do something a little different that doesn't go by
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: the book. And last night was another one of those cases.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: You could not afford to give up another run if
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: you wanted to win that game last night, absolutely, And
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: instead we're going to our seventh best reliever in the
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: sixth inning after having gained momentum. It makes no sense
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: to me, all right, headlines Friends and Family with Mike
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Sando next on kJ Art.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: I've already had two glasses this morning, man, is that
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: kind of a morning?
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Let's hug it out. It's Chuck, It's Ashley with you.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Happy Friday to you all. Sorry I'm running a little
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: bit late. Sorry YouTubers, I'm looking right at you. Sorry Mom. Sorry. PS.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, sorry to PS because he's probably he's probably
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: p O.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, for sure. But I had to do a Dan
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Wilson rant today and I wasn't gonna cut it off
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: just so we could stay on time. So sorry about it,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: and I'm not done. I'm not done ranting on Dan either,
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: so we'll do a little more of that coming up
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: later on in the show. But right now, it's time
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: for joy. It's time for mirth, it's time for friends,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: it's time for family, it's time for draft. MIAs joining
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: us on the program and our friends and family segment
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: is our own NFL insider from the Athletic Happy Draft
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: miss to our friend Mike Sando. Hello, sir, good morning.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: How are you great? How are you doing? I'm doing great?
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: Off this week about that, I've never met anybody that
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: loves football the NFL more than you. Where does draft
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: rank amongst your things that you look most forward to?
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: It's interesting. I like the draft itself. I don't like
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: the build up to it, and some of that from
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: me is maybe I'm a little all or nothing on
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: this stuff, but like, I'm so into the NFL that
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: I feel like if you're going to be super into
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: the draft, that's like its own industry, you know, to
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: like be really be into the who's the third best
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: linebacker and all that type of stuff. That's not me. Yeah,
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: as much I love the strategy around me, I love
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: it to me, Michael, Yeah, yeah, that type of stuff,
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: Like even the teams get that wrong half the time,
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: you know. Yeah, But I love the draft. I love
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: My favorite thing about the draft is kind of when
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: it's over and when you can kind of see what
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: teams did. I really love that gifts.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you get oh yeah, just from under the tree
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: and you know exactly what you're playing with.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and then you can evaluate it, evaluate the trades,
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: and you can kind of see what teams are really thinking.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: And I love the analysis of it when it happens.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: The analysis of it going into it isn't as interesting
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: to me.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, that's all right, Mike. We all know
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: our roles, we all love, we all play our roles.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: So you think it's weir heard that I have a
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: month long holiday celebration for it, and I'm currently wearing
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: a smoker's jacket with a pipe in my hand.
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: Well, no, I love that people are into it that much.
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: I was just like, my gosh, uh, you know, you
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: have to breathe sometime here. To me, going into the
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: draft is a perfect like It's funny. I did a
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: coming out of the combine. I did a thing where
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: I pulled some people in the league and we put
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: together a top ten to the NFL Draft. Who are
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: gonna be the top ten picks? You know? And then
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: I looked at, like, you know, the Dane Brugler's mock
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: draft this week, and it was like pretty similar. Oh,
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: you know, I mean we and we and we've gone,
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: you know, with a lot of the same players. I
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: think three of the top four were the same or
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: that sort of a thing. It's there's a lot of
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: conversation that happens between then and now, and I'm not
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: convinced that as much change is for between then and out,
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: you know what I mean?
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I'm looking forward to finding out
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. So Mike Sander was with
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: us our NFL Insider who's the who's the intriguing player
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: then in your estimation, whether that's a team, a general manager,
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: an owner in Dallas's case, I mean, what's that what's
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: that storyline that you think gives us that little bit
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: of shock value that so many draft people love.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean, who's going to be the How early
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: is the second quarterback going to go?
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: You know?
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: And I think I think people have had you know, whatever,
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: Ty Simpson in the top of the second round or somewhere,
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: but you never really know on that. I think that
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: it just takes one team to want somebody or have
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: a need. I think that is uh uh, that is
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: an interesting one. And then you know, Seattle to me
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: at thirty two is interesting just like, how do they
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: get more picks? I think that there's no way they're
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: going to have four picks in the drafts, So how
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: do you I think they could be really applauded for
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: getting you know, six seven picks out of this, but
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: then who do you get, Like does it really work out?
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: You know?
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: I think I think that's interesting for a team that
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: lost a lot, you know, relatively speaking this offseason.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: How much credit do you give to success in the draft,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: Because Obviously it's very important, and it feels like the
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: ones that are good at it are consistently good at it.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: John Schneider was great at it, maybe not so much
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: there for a while, and now he's back on top
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: of his game. So do you do you chalk it
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: up to, oh, well, sometimes you just have a good
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: run of luck. Or do you give Schneider the credit?
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Do you give the combination of Schneider and McDonald the
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: credit like Pete and John used to be on the
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: same page. Because I think there's I don't think it
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: was a fluke that Ozzie Knewsom was great at this
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: year after year after year after year. As much as
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: some people want to call it a crapshoot, I just
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: don't ever go there. So the Seahawks are on fire
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: right now? Why do you think that is?
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: I do think that. I do think it's having a
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: good connection between your coach and your and your GM
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: because when you think of it, like the old Bill Parson,
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: those things. Remember Bill Parcell said as head coach, if
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: I'm going to be making the meal, I want to
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: shop for the groceries. Remember that. Well, if the person
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: shopping for your groceries. Isn't getting in what you know
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: how to cook or want to cook, You're not going
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: to have as good of a meal. That's just normal, right,
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: And so I think having those two obviously know what
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: they're doing and then have the you know, be on
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: the same page. So the coaching staff is excited about
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: these guys. That's an underrated thing that we don't really
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: the curtain doesn't get pulled back on the fact that, oh,
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: this team didn't take this guy because the position coach
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: didn't like him or things like that. Right, all sort
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: of goes on the GM's tab. So when you can
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: get all of that stuff synced up and get the
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: right player, and I do think you have a big
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: boost because the number one way to have really bad
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: drafts is to have a lot of turnover, be firing
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: our coach all the time, right, And sometimes I say, well,
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: they fired the coach because they drafted this guy and
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: he wasn't any good. But a lot of times they're
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: gonna your draft's gonna look way worse if you make
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: the if you make the firings, because guys are going
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: to come in and not like that guy as much.
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: So in a place like Baltimore. He said, I you
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: knew some noose what he's doing. And they'd had two
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: coaches this century, right, they've had two coaches. They had
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: Brian Billock and they have John Harbott. Now they're going
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: to have finally a third. But I think that's a
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: great recipe. And I agree that it's not a crap shoot.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: You know, I used to do a podcast with Randy
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: Mueller and he really bristled at that idea, that, yeah,
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: crap shooting. And I know there's you can make the
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: case that it is, because you can go through and
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: show that team's upping down and all over the place.
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: But I think there's more to it than that. I
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: really do well.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: I think teams get lucky every once in a while.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: I don't give the Patriots too much credit for Tom
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: Brady his development, but not drafting him. Otherwise you wouldn't
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: have waited as long as you did to get him.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: And I think there are some teams that take guys
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: that look like short things and they crap out, and
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: it might not necessarily be their fault, but the consistency
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: when you're good more often than not, when you have
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: good drafts more often than you have bad drafts. I
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: don't think that's luck. I don't think that's fluke. I
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: think that's you got good personnel people.
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and I agree with you on the Brady thing.
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: Obviously an extreme example that they would have taken him
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: earlier had they known. But a big part of the
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: draft is knowing when you can get players too, even
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: if they're really good. You know, sometimes it's knowing that, hey,
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: we don't have to do this here, we can get
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: this other thing, other guy, and that guy's going to
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: be here. So map having that mapped out, and I
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: think in general, standers done a good job of that.
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: Man.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Mike Sander was with us, so you can follow Matt
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Sando NFL. We're talking some draft friends and family segment
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: here in our Draft miss celebration. How big do you
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: see the Ken Walker hole for the Seahawks and how
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: long can they wait into the draft before they take
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: a running back?
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: I think it's a big, big hole just at the
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: position in general, with Zach Scharbney also coming off of
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: an injury. So that being said, I don't get the
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: sense that people are going to be clamoring to take
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: running backs early. So maybe there's one they Love and
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: they feel like they got to have him in the
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: second round, but I I just haven't felt that. So
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: I could see them waiting longer than that. I could
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: see them, you know, I could see them taking We've
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: seen this happen before. They don't take What if they
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: didn't take one, you know, until this sixth round. I
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: think that could totally happen, just based on you know,
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: they're not going to force that pick and they're not
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: going to panic over it. I think it's easier not
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: to panic when you just won the Super Bowl.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: And speaking of running backs, is Jeremiah Love from what
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: you have studied? And I know that you don't find
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: tooth coleback? Do you see him as special? And in
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: this dime a dozen running back era that seems to
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: be changing here recently with Barkley kind of carrying the
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Eagles to the Super Bowl title. A couple of years ago,
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Jean Robinson looked like it was worth that high pick,
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: Gibbs and Detroit looks like he's worth that high pick.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: How has it changed a little bit behind the scenes
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: the view on running backs here in the last couple
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: of years, And how will that reflect Thursday with Jeremiah
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Love out of Notre Dame.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he's going to go in the top ten.
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: Some of that is just because, you know, it doesn't
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: seem like people are overly excited about a lot of
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: the other players up there. So you know, if he
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: were to go get past Washington even you know, that
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: could be surprising. I think that would be a makes
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: sense for them too, with their quarterback and this guy,
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: and you put those two things together. So I do
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: think that, you know, for a while there it was
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: overboard about how you never take a running back high.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: It was kind of one of those Hey, this is
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: an analytics revelation here, we're in the analytics era. You
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: never you never do this, You never do that. I
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: don't think he would never say never. I do think
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: the value is proven clearly, if two things players are equal,
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: you go at a different position because of the financial
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: component of drafting these guys in positions. If you draft
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: a running back in the top ten, you're paying him
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: near the top of the market for running backs, much
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: nearer the top of the market than if you were
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: to have a pass rusher at who you value similarly. Definitely,
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: the positional value does matter in that case. But when
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: you're talking about special talents, and I think people do
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: think that Jeremiah Love is one. You know, you you
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: probably I'd much better have that. And just hey, we
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: did the positional value thing and got a mediocre pass rusher.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: So I do think he will go in the top
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: ten and and uh, you know whether he's going to
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: pan out? Shoot, We've seen a bunch of these guys.
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: Trent Richardson looked great, he was going to be great. Yeah,
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: Ashton jt he was going to be great. He special,
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: you know, I you see, let those guys missed too.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Is Fernando Mendoz a special? Will he make a very
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: early appearance near your quarterback tier top of your quarterback tiers?
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: And is there another guy that you see or that
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: you're hearing from the people that you talk to, uh
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: that might have that face of the franchise existence going forward?
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: Well, I know some coaches who we just as soon
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: have Ty Simpson. As for Nanda Mendoz, I think it's
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: a smaller group, and I think that I think that
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: as those guys look at the players more closely, that
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: Mendoz has gone up. But I don't get the sense
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: that you know he's I think he's gonna go number one.
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: I don't get the sense that he's super generational. I
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: think he's you know, in a good in the right system,
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: good place. Seems to have be completely squared away, like
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: in the you know, the psychological component of this, which
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: is big for quarterbacks. So I think you're gonna feel
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: good about taking them. But I don't think that anyone
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: is feeling like, you know, this is the John Elway
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: Andrew luckdraft.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and by the way, have you seen Trevor Lawrence's hair.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: He finally cut his hair. He looks fantasy.
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, he looks great. I mean that it's the biggest
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: off season upgrade than any one's made, don't you think.
• 19:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I can't believe it.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know what he was going with it for
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: so long, and now that I see it short, I'm like, dude,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: I guarantee you he's kicking himself from here, like I
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: should have done this seven years ago.
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: Oh, he's gonna be He's gonna go right to tier
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: one and quarterback tiers. You know, it's just gonna there's
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: gonna be no change in his play. Be like, Oh,
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: this guy looks great. He looked great this offseason.
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: I don't know what it is.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: Tier one. Yeah, yeah, it's an unbelievable Now. What I
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: don't understand is it's not like he was going with
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: a conventional look before. I mean, no, no, I can't either.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: He's going fashionable. It just looks a million times better.
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: That's my gosh. He looks like, you know, complete complete makeover.
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: Man.
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: We all need to reassess, Chuck. We all need to
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: like take that picture into someone professional, like, Hey, is
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: is there something like this for me? I mean, this
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: guy improved like one hundred percent overnight.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: Uh. I've lived that life before, by the way, I've
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: lived that held onto my long hair too long, uh
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: into my early twenty and regret it. But now I
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: don't have any options left. Sand Yeah, I'm pretty much
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: scared out, all right. So so give me something that
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Mike Sando specifically loves about, either the draft class or
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: the festivities next Thursday. Maybe it's a player. Maybe it's
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: somebody that you really like and you cannot wait to
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: see how the chips fall and where that person lands.
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: Well, let's see where. Let me look through these. Let
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: me just see. I'm kind of interested in what happened
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: with Reuben Bain. I think that he is somebody who
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: people have seen as a kind of a tone setter
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: in his style of play. And then we had the
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: big you know, little brew ha ha, where you know,
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: got reported that he had, you know, a pretty significant
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: off field thing a couple of years ago. And then
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: people the draft next Todd mcshaney, these kids like, oh
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: everybody knew about that. You know, this is not a factor.
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: So I love I don't love that somebody a terrible
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: time right field, but I do like the all right,
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: let's just kind of see after the draft there could
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: be some sort of you know, if he goes nineteenth
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: or something, right, then those people who brought up the
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: news thing, maybe they're vindicated some way. I think Dane
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: Bruger has him going ninth. I think he'll probably go
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: in the top ten.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: But I think that.
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: Him and then the edge rusher class in general. I
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: think there's a lot of those guys who have kind
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: of been pushed up there. And I've talked to some
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: people with teams like I don't know, but you got
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: to pick somebody, right, So how many where does he go?
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: And how many of those guys are in the top
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: ten is something I'm watching.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: And then something that is sort of draft related. But
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: to more up your alley, AJ Brown, Dexter Lawrence, are
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: they going to get moved here before the draft or
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: maybe after the draft?
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: The AJ Brown one seems to make the most sense
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: after the draft for the accounting reasons, right, it's better
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: on your salary cap to wait until June before you
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: unload somebody that you're super invested in, and that would
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: be a J. Brown for the Eagles. And I do
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: think that they're going to move them. And they've made
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: some They've tipped their hand a little bit, right, They've
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: acquired like seventeen receivers in the last few weeks, right,
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: They've they've made a couple of trades. They've got more
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: than one receiver in there. And we'll see what they
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: do in the draft. But I do think that he
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: will move Dexter Lawrence. I'm not as sure on uh
• 23:23
  Speaker 5: but uh man, good player?
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah all right, man, Well, happy Draftmas to you. Maybe
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: it's not for you the super Bowl, But nonetheless, I
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: know they're going to be a lot of intriguing storylines,
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: oh that are going to be cooking next week. So
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: we had to have you on, we had to have
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: a conversation with you and had to issue a merry draftmas.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: It's more like a divisional PLAYFF game for me.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Still big, still big, still big, still big.
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, not quite the super Bowl, but yeah, yeah, absolutely,
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: I love it.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: We'll see all right, Mike, thank you, We'll talk to
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: you soon. Okay, serious, Mike Sando joining us right here
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: on Chuck and Buck, and of course you can fall
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: our NFL insider with the athletic at Sando NFL. He's
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: with us throughout the regular season and a must for
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: our Friends and Family segment Fridays right here during our
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: draft miss celebration. All right. Coming up next, we're going
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: to try to get four letters in the ABC's of
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: the MS, because I think all four of these things
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: have to be discussed. Sports Radio ninety three point three
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: KJRFM in the studio. He's going to make fun of
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: our picks, and then he's gonna pick two, So we'll
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: attempt at making fun of his picks, and then he'll
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: probably knock us down a wrung or two ever fits
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Hughes joining.
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: I would assume, yeah, I'd assume he's going to make
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: us feel like really big hockey idiots.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Spencer was great, by the way, when we did
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: this with the NBA playoffs wednesday, and so Everett, you
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: gotta lot to loo up.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it'll be just as great and if
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: not more critical, because he even knows us better.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: He knows is a little bit better. He's not afraid
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: to tell me, like you, your skin care is rubbish. Right,
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: he's not afraid.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: He's not afraid to use rubbish. That's for sure.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: I can use it with you. You've got your mom's British.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, I can understand what you're.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Saying, right, exactly, I speak your language. Let's get to
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: the ABC's of the MS, and I want to get
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: through four letters on many four different topics here, because
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: the alphabet's pumped out some pretty interesting subjects here regarding
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: our mariners here as of late. And M is for
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Munos Andres Munos, and hired a lot of different analysts
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: yesterday trying to figure out is there anything wrong with
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Andres Munos, And it turns out all you had to
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: do is ask Andres Munos. I mean he's so kind
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: and he's so honest. I mean he just basically spelled
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: it out for you. I don't have my slider feel,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: and that is my best pitch, that's my most important pitch.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with his velocity. There's nothing physically wrong
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: with him. I actually thought his sinker looked fantastic the
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: other day, And if anything, I think he and Cal
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: are just so used to having him having a great
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: slider that they weren't calling the sinker enough in that
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: situation where he blew the game. He also said that
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: was the worst I've ever pitched, that I've never felt
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: that uncomfortable on the mound getting beaten up that much.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: And he said I'm not pitching enough, which was very
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: loud and clear to me. He's not getting enough reps,
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: and I think that goes all the way back to
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: when he was on Team Mexico in the way that
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: they had to manage things there. Look, I don't think
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: there's anything wrong with Andre s Munos other than he's
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: off a little bit. I think that anybody that wants
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: to jump ship on this guy is crazy. He's been
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: not just a good reliever, he's been an elite reliever
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: the last couple of years, and he's never been South
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: of good his entire time in a Mariner uniform except
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: for the year he missed with the injury. So I
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: think he's going to be fine, but he's telling you
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: what he needs. Number one, don't ever let anyone be
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: in the WBC ever again. Yes, I just heard enough
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: to say that everybody's out of their rhythm with the
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: way the pitchers throw today one hundred miles per hour.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: Hitters need the routine that they have, and I think
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: that these modern day athletes walk such a fine line
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: between good and great or bad and good, that they
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: need their repetition. They need their routine, and we took
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: it away from all of our best players this spring.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: I don't want to see another Mariner ever in the WBC.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: And listen to your closer, Dan, he can't pitch every
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: six days and stay sharp, So I don't care if
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: you don't have situations that are perfectly tidy for a
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: safe situation. Up one in the ninth Andre's Munnos needs
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: a little more work than what you're giving him. Get
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: the man some work. He's telling you publicly that he
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: needs it.
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, if you can't listen to your own players
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: telling you straight out, flat out what they need. Then
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: that's part of your job as a manager. You are
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: supposed to be managing the people, managing the players. He's
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: saying it out loud.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: Get him more work, Yeah, Naylor, he plays with intensity.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know if intense guys for now that we're
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: seeing him over one hundred and sixty two games, maybe
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: you can't. I mean, when he got here there was intensity,
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: and then he was in a playoff push, and then
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: he was in the playoffs. I kind of believed that
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: that guy was laser focused at all times. I'm not
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: sure he is anymore. And last night was a terrible
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: play by him. I mean, that is a routine play
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: every first baseman has to make. And it wasn't just
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: that he dropped it. It was the approach. It was
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: letting it go so far? What happened? Why not next
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: to him get to the bag and stretch out and
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: go get it? Don't? Why are you letting it come
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: to you? And then nonchalantly trying to field it off
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: to the side and he took his eye off the
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: ball and that was a big error. That was a
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: huge misstep. Castillo needed everybody around him to be better
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: so he could get out of that inning and instead
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: Castillo makes the good play, got charged with an error,
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: initially made the best throw that he could under the circumstances.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: And Naylor a first baseman, Like if it's some utility
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: guy that's not played a lot of first base, I
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: forget that play. That was one of those unforgivable plays
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: right there. You got to catch that baseball, and you
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: got to make it an easier catch for yourself than
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: what you did. So I'm putting a lot of that
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: loss on Josh Naylor last night.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: And I think that he would be the first one
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: to say, wow, I was not. I mean because from
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: what we know of him, right, he is constantly thinking
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: about every aspect of the game. So there's no way
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: that he went into the clubhouse last night thinking, yeah,
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: I had a great game. Yeah, he's going to think
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: about that for sure.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I could have improved it.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: I don't think he carries it over. I think he's
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: one of those people I say, boy, I screwed that up.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: I can't do that again. Yeah, And it's not going
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: to like bother him. No, I don't think he lost
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: sleep last night. But that was Josh Naylor. That was
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: a a four run inning that should have been a
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: two run inning at most, and you fall down four
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: runs to this team with their bullpen, and odds are
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: you're not going to come back. Oh, it's for open
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: minded And I would just ask for as I get
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: ready to make this next statement, everybody to be a
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: little open minded on this. And I would really have
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: to ask Luis Castillo to be open minded on this.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Is there a chance that Luis Castillo could be a
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: great reliever? Like if he got to just I'm gonna
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: come in and throw my best, nastiest stuff for an inning,
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Like could he be a back of the end bullpen guy.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, we've had this conversation with Ryan Heay last week,
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: and we've had it a couple of times ourselves, trying
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: to figure out if you, you know, if you get
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: that six starter back in Bryce Miller, how are you
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: going to construct the five man rotation? Because I think
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: six man rotations out of the question for me, and
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: so I don't want to just send Emerson Hancock to
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: the bullpen or to ta come because the other five
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: guys have seniority over him. Yeah, he might be pitching
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: better than any of them. He's certainly pitching better than Castillo.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: And I'm watching Castillo and he's got all that run
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: and all that movement on his pitches, and he was
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: getting beat up because he was missing up last night
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: and then he did settle back in. But if Luis
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: Castill could just say I'm gonna throw as hard as
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: I can with as much movement and run as I can,
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: I think maybe he could profile as a late inning
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: reliever for you. We see this happen to starters in
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: the playoffs. Is that I mean, are we open minded?
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Would he be open minded to the thought of We're
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: not just sticking you into the bullpen to buy time,
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: We're not going to turn you into a long reliever.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: We think you might be able to be a lights
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: out back of the end, back of the bullpen kind
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: of guy. Is that a possibility? Am I crazy on this?
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: I mean it doesn't sound crazy to me.
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: And if you think, like, yeah, now he doesn't have
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: to try to maintain his arm and all of those
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: pitches for five or six or however many innings.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: As he and just me, I think he could still
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: be a closer. And I would I mean, I'm not
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: gonna make him one, no, but I.
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: Wouldn't mind seeing him walking out of that bullpen in
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: the in the ninth inning with the fire and the
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: you know, flashing lights.
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like I feel like he'd be in
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: his element.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: I don't think the heartbeat raises all that much when
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: he comes into games or in big situations. Maybe. I mean,
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: John Smoltz did it, and John Smoltz had a more
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: decorated starting pitching career than what Luis Castillo did. Trying
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: to figure out the use for him trying to keep
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Hancock and Miller into the starting rotation, he obviously is
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: struggling more so than any starting pitcher so far this year.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I'd just like to be open. I'd
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: like to have a conversation with it about it. Yeah,
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: would we good?
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: I'm open to that conversation for sure.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: Finally, PS for pinch hitter uh Man. I could hear
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: Bucky Jacobson yelling into the mountains last night Mitch Garver
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: might have had his biggest Garver moment of his entire
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: Mariner career. And considering all the evaluation, what is Bucky
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: said about Mitch Carr. I don't hate the guy. I
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: hate his approach. Yes, he's supposed to be a designated hitter.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: It's a pinch hitter. It's not a designated walker. It's
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: not a pinch walker. And Bucky's frustration with Mitch Garver
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: is that he feels like every time he goes to
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: the plate, he's looking to get walked rather than to
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: do damage. That's been Bucky's thing with Mitch Garver now
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: for a couple of years, two plus years. Last night
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: had to have put our friend Bucky Jacobson over the
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: edge because Mitch Garver literally tried to walk before he
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: had four balls.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: Last night he took off his shin guard or whatever
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: guard that was everything, and then they're like, uh wait,
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: everyone even and Aaron was like, sometimes I wonder like
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: did I get it wrong?
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: Because I keep my book and maybe I got it wrong.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: Everybody was looking at him. Never before has Mitch Garber
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: made it more obvious to Bucky's point that he's up
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: there looking for a walk than the night he decided
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: I'm going to walk on three pitches and try to
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: get away with it. Accurate three balls, I should say,
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: because it was a two key counts yeah, and I
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: think there was a foul ball in there. As well,
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: so he'd seen a lot of pitches yeah, and apparently
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: had lost track. But I could just feel Bucky fuming
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: from his couch in North Bend.
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: I'm sure he was just like, are you he? There
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: was definitely some swear words.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: I had to bring that up to day.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: I had forgotten about it till you brought it up,
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: So thank you.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: All right, coming up next. It turned into a way
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: bigger of a story than I kind of hoped that
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: it would be yesterday. We did not discuss it. We're
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: going to spend just a couple of minutes on it,
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: but out of respect to the person who was the
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: victim of this story, I don't want to spend any
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: more time on it than the couple minutes that Ashley
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: and I will discuss next. Sports Radio ninety three point
• 35:10

• 35:59
  Speaker 2: top story. So the we do it every Friday. We
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: recap the week. Get you're ready for the weekend, and yeah,
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: just by taking off the top eight stories of the day,
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: we will start with bad news. The Mariners were swept
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: in San Diego. Started the series kind of with some momentum.
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: The team was heading in the right direction. We felt,
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: we knew they were taking on a good team in
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: the San Diego Padres. We weren't expecting that series. But
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: that's what happens in San Diego. It's a real mystery there.
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: Discovered by the Germans in nineteen oh four. They named
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: it San Diego.
• 36:37
  Speaker 9: Which, of course in German means a whales vagina.
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: No, there's no way that's correct.
• 36:50
  Speaker 9: I'm sorry, I was trying to impress you. I don't
• 36:55
  Speaker 9: know what it means. I'll be honest, I don't think
• 36:59
  Speaker 9: anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintained that the
• 37:02
  Speaker 9: translation was lost hundreds of years ago.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Doesn't it mean Saint Diego? No, no, no, that's that's
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: what it means.
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: Really well, agree to disagree?
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: We That is the the best line in there is
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: when he just says like he doesn't know. He admits
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: that he doesn't know what he's talking about, and then
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: she says what the obvious answer to it is, and
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: he goes, no, that's the only thing he's certain about
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: is that. No, that's not it.
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: Really.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: I also really like her laugh.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: She's like, ah, well, I do know this. Waleses Vagina
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: took it to our boys the last three nights, that's
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: for damn sure. San Diego capped a three game sweep
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: of the Mariners last night, riding a four run second
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: inning off Luis Castillo and some shoddy defense Josh Naylor
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: uh for a five to two win last night. So
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: the Padre all things going swimmingly for them. They've won
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: eight straight games. Meanwhile, the Mariners, all that momentum that
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: they took with him to California has unraveled before them.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: The three game sweep drops them to eight and twelve
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: twenty games into this season, and so it's not gone
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: the way that any of us hoped or expected. That's
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: for sure. There was some sloppy baseball play during the series.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: There was a big lead blown late, and I think
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: some managerial questions as well. I think thinking back to
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: last night. You know, I've tried to stay off of
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Dan Wilson's case this year, but last night, pinch hitting
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: for your hottest hitter, whether it's a lefty lefty matchup
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: or not, with an ice cold off the bench hitter
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: that hasn't had a major league hit since last July,
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: I've got a problem with and look, I liked the book.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: I like playing like the book. I like using the book.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: I like the book. Is knee that I can, you know,
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: look up what statistically needs to be done in this situation.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: But Dan Wilson's got to start managing a little bit
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: more with his gut. I know that lou Panella would
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: tell him to do so. And to me, taking out
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: your hottest hitter if you've got some proven you know
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Leviathan that comes off of the bench, and I murder
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: left handed pitchers. It's Connor Joe. The only reason he's
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: even on the roster is because of an injury to
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: two different players, well one different player who was the
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: first to get called up. He hasn't proven that he
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: can hit lefties this season at all. He hasn't even
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: played this season. He doesn't have a major league hit
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: since last July. And so to take out your hottest
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: hitter lefty lefty matchup or not, for somebody as unproven,
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: somebody that you didn't really feel as soon as you
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: saw him take the bat in his hand had much
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: of a chance against an all star left handed pitcher,
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: and then to watch him strike out on three straight
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: pitches and not even come close. It was rough to watch.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: And I think it was a big mistake.
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And I would have it would have been rough
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: to watch if Luke Rayley had struck out on three
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: straight pitches.
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: It would have been rough to watch anyone.
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: But I would have rather watched Luke Rayley strike out
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: on three straight pitches because I would have had more
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: faith than he wasn't going to And he's been so hot, Okay,
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: so we had a.
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: Bat at that.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Plus he stays in the game, Yes, and you can
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: use him, you know, against inevitably the right hander that
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: comes up later. Now, Joe did hit a line drive
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: down the left field line, and Loreano made a good
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: play on it later in the game. I'm not saying
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: he's useless, but in that situation, I mean, I just
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: don't know how you make that move. Yes, follow the book,
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: but occasionally you've got to kind of read the room.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: And I will say the same thing about his use
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: of relief pitching. Right now, I mean, are we really
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: I get you might have a couple sacred cows in
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: your bullpen, your closer, maybe even your setup man, maybe
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: even Brash as a sacred cow. Well, we can't have
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: five of our eight guys that only can come in
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: the game and a tie or up one or two
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: after the sixth inning. I mean, last night, it would
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: have been nice to really get a one win out
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: of San Diego. You had the momentum. You scored twice.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: Then the Rayley Joe thing happened, but you still had
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: the momentum. In the game, You're putting Castillo back on
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: the mound, and then when Castillo gets in trouble, you're
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: bringing Cole Wilcox in the game like our seventh eighth
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: best relief pitcher. I mean, I think he's got the
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: stuff that he could someday be good. But come on,
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: look at these numbers. Matt Brash has thrown a third
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: of an inning in the last six days. Bizarreta one
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: inning in five days, Spire one inning in six days,
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: Munnos one inning and five days. For Air one batter
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: in four days. None of those guys are available in
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: a two run deficit in the sixth inning of a
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: game that you seem to be all on a comeback.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: You could not afford to fall down another run. And
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: yet we decide no, statistically, we just don't put in
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: our five best relievers when we're down two in the
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: six That's just not what we do.
• 42:16
  Speaker 4: We only use them when we're up four, like the
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: day before. I mean, it makes it makes no sense
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: to me. It doesn't make any sense.
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: I can't. I can't wrap my mind around it.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: And then on top of it all, you know, you've
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: got Munos calling you out saying I'm not pitching enough.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: We gotta pitch these guys more. What are we saving
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: them for? Listen to your pitchers, all right? Let's move on. Tonight,
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: the Mariners return home. They're taking on the Texas Rangers,
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: and man, the promotion really has jumped it up a notch.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: For tonight's game, A team of assassins targets the.
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: Rangers' putting together a deaf squad.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: Leading to an epic showdown. I have your lovely ride
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: on the next welcome toll places going on six's Ranger tonight. Okay,
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: all right, I mean I really did set.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: That up must watch television apparently.
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: I guess that's out of Texas. Huh, yeah, that's not
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: to the Mariners PR doing that.
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 43:14
  Speaker 4: I mean I like that the Texas PR called us
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: a team of assassins.
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: Well I'd like to think that we are.
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well let's show it.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly feels to me like we're slap boxers right now.
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: Jacob de gram Naivaldi and Mackenzie Gore are set up
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: to start the weekend series. Seattle's going to counter with
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: Gilbert Kirby and Wu So it's their three best against
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: our three best. Let's do it. First pitch from T
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: Mobile tonight at six forty, the Mariners off to an
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: unimaginably bad start considering the expectations. Then again, I think
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: this is worth noting there are one hundred and forty
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: two games yet to play. Oh really, Yes, that's a
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: lot of basement.
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: That's a lot. That's a lot more than we've played.
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: Yes, so an eight and twelve record, highly disappointing the
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: way that we've been losing as of late, disappointing. Yes,
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: series in San Diego disappointing. Hopefully, good Mariner fan base,
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: good atmosphere and some great pitching is the right sort
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: of recipe to get us back on track. One hundred
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: and forty two games to go. Unlike the crack and
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: who ran out of time a week ago and last
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: night ran out of their season entirely taking on Colorado
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: at Houston.
• 44:29
  Speaker 10: Fort shot back door that score, Parker Chelly off to
• 44:38
  Speaker 10: pass or change satellite two.
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: Nothing seven forty one to play the Fairy. Everett fits
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: you the last the goal call of the season for
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: our guy, Evertt fits you. That is your McDonald's delivery

• 45:08
  Speaker 2: game of a thirty four, thirty seven and one campaign,
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: a third straight season for the five year old franchise
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: without a playoff appearance. Colorado two Seattle nothing to finish
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: another disappointing year.
• 45:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I can't say. I had hoped they'd
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: put up more fight at the end. And I know
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: when we were talking to was it al He was saying, hey,
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: you want to I can't remember if it was all
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: or Evert saying you want to end the season on
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: a positive note. Now, yeah, you want to go into
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: the offseason thinking, Okay, we had some fight left in us.
• 45:38
  Speaker 4: And I know Colorado is a really good team, So
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: I suppose a two to nothing loss isn't as bad
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: as it could be. But it's a disappointing way to
• 45:47
  Speaker 4: end the season.
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: Two losses.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Disappointing season.
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that too.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: Change is coming to the roster, perhaps significant change. Needless
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: to say, Todd Laiwiki isn't pleased to be watching the
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: Stanley Cup playoffs from the side again this year. I
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: think the big shakeups coming. I don't think that you're
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: playing patty cake with this offseason. And if Lane Lambert's safe,
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: then there's got to be some people that aren't. Yeah,
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: and probably some pretty big names. So I would expect,
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: at at very minimum a shakeup, and it may be
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: a massive.
• 46:22
  Speaker 6: One this offseason.
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, something's got to change, that's for sure.
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: The Stanley Cup Playoffs are going to begin tomorrow without
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: the Seattle cracking, and yes, once you get to the playoffs,
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: so it's just a it's just a lot more button up.
• 46:37
  Speaker 6: Three you guys.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: But one thing, I'd run a cool game here, I
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: have any troubles suspect. There you go, the best line
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: from a great movie. The field is officially set. The
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: number one seed Colorado and the West will take all
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Kings. That'll be on Sunday tomorrow at noon.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: In the one seed in the East, Carolina will take
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: on Ottawa, although I'm seeing a lot of experts pick
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: in Ottawa to pull off an upset in that one.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: We'll preview the Stanley Cup Playoffs with Everett fits You
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: coming up at nine o'clock here this morning. Minnesota, Dallas,
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: Philadelphia at Pittsburgh. Also on Saturday Sunday Montreal and Tampa Bay,
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: Boston and Buffalo and Utah and Las Vegas. The Mammoth
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: made the playoffs this year, and then Edmonton and Anna
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: I don't start until Monday, so their series will get
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: started Monday night, the Ducks and the Edmonton Oiler. So
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: that's your Stanley Cup playoff matchup. And again we'll provide
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: a preview for you the only way we know how
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: to do it. Green Jacket Draft today at nine o'clock.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: Ever going to be with us or on the phone.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: I believe he is gonna be on the phone. I
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: might put him on zoom though, so we can at
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: least see his faces.
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, we got to see his reaction when
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: he crumbles at all my great picks.
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: Uh huh, I want to see the heart ache.
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm gonna try that. We'll see. I know
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: it's and media day, so that's causing some issues with
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: where he'll have to be. But I think we might
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: talk about.
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: Do you say, cracking meat?
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: Their post season media stuff. They've got a bunch of stuff.
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: They gotta nobody wants to talk.
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: They got a bunch of stuff they got to answer for.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: He wants to talk about that, right, all right? NBA
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: playoffs also start tomorrow. Basketball came, He gave me, came.
• 48:29
  Speaker 11: Basketball game, sousket.
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: Kim me because that keeps going. And they're just so
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: gobsmacked that they're like, wait a minute, what do you
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: mean you don't like the lyrics? Do you want us
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: to change the lyrics? Oh, you don't want us to
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: sing at all.
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: I just like when they're like, well, it started with
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: his poem and then it grew into the so his
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: whole poem was bubblah blah blah blah basketball give me,
• 49:03
  Speaker 4: give me, give me the ball because I'm gonna dunk it.
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: That was the poem.
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: All right. So tomorrow ten am Toronto at Cleveland, you'll
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: have the Timberwolves taking on the Nuggets. You will have
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: the Hawks and the Knicks, and you will have the
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: Rockets and the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are playing
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: without Doncic, it looks like, and also Austin Reeves. So
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: nobody's given the Lakers a chance in this series. And
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: it might have been the break that Kevin Durant needs.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: If Kevin Durant and the Rockets don't get through this,
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: I realize, YEAHA loves KD, but this is a must.
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: You have to get past a Lakers team without two
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: of its three best players.
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: I would think.
• 49:45
  Speaker 12: So, you were.
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: Supposed to be the piece that made them a championship team,
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: and you've been really good. You're always You're always great,
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: You're always great, but your teams don't win.
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: There's no excuse if they don't make it past that.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: Your teams don't get better with you on the team,
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: even the you're great. What does that say? What are
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: we supposed to take from that? The Atlanta Hawks, I think,
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: may have a chance of knocking off New York, and
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: I will give Toronto a slight chance over Cleveland. But
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: I think most of the first round matchups are foregone conclusions. Sunday,
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: you're gonna have Philly and Boston foregone conclusion, Portland at
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: San Antonio foregone conclusion, and then Oklahoma City and Detroit.
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: They await tonight's results in the play in tournament, and
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: the Thunder and the Pistons foregone conclusion that they will advance.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: As far as I'm concerned, the play in games will
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: start tonight at four o'clock. These are for the eight
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: seeds in both conference. Says Charlotte will take on Orlando,
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: and then in the West it will be Golden State
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: and Phoenix. And I should warn you, unless I'm not
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: looking at things the right way, pretty much, the start
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: of the NBA playoffs is going to be on streaming.
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: That's annoying.
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: I mean prime video. I think most people have Prime Video, and.
• 51:00
  Speaker 4: Because of the NFL probably well, and you get it
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: with your Amazon subjects and.
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you get it with that. And then Peacock also
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: will have some games, but there are only two games
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: out of the eight Saturday and Sunday that are on
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: network television.
• 51:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you are correct, I'm yeah, one game Saturday, two
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: games Sunday.
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: Again, I think, oh, I mean, I really do like
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: the NBA, don't I don't try to go out of
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: my way to like crush the NBA. But man, you're
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: making a lot of bad decisions these days, Adam Silver,
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: And this to me is another one there.
• 51:31
  Speaker 4: It is saying though, for the Detroit and San Antonio
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: games on Sunday, NBC and.
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: Peacock, but they always say that.
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: I think I don't know, so I'm wondering.
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: I think you because you can watch it on both
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: so I think it is still on network television.
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: It is not always the case. Maybe that is the
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: case for this, but that is not always the case
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: because Peacock is NBC, so they usually put NBC Peacock.
• 51:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they've got Peacock, nbcsn on other games. So I
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: think if it's saying NBC first and then Peacock second,
• 51:58
  Speaker 4: that you.
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: Can watch it on NBC.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, maybe you can, but there's a chance that
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: if you don't have the right streaming services, you won't
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: be able to watch most of the basketball this weekend.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: And don't buy more of it. Honestly, don't buy more
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: of it. If you don't have it, don't buy it. Honestly,
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: don't buy it. It's not worth it. Sounders taking on
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: Saint Louis on Saturday. The Sounders have been concacaffing and
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: mlssing and it's led to them being really banged up
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: at this point in the season, despite their terrific MLS start.
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: Here's the nutty professor Brian Schmetzer.
• 52:34
  Speaker 13: As down as we are, you know, kim key. He
• 52:38
  Speaker 13: Ryan sailor, the udub grad Yamar. We've got injuries left
• 52:43
  Speaker 13: and right. Our center back corps. We've been getting some
• 52:48
  Speaker 13: results and look a lot of it is. Alex Roldan
• 52:51
  Speaker 13: has slot next to Jackson Reagan and he's not a
• 52:55
  Speaker 13: center back by trade. I don't think he's ever played
• 52:58
  Speaker 13: center back ever in his life when he was at SU,
• 53:01
  Speaker 13: but he fits nicey next to Jackson. Then we got Kilanie,
• 53:06
  Speaker 13: you know, another UB product coming in right back where
• 53:09
  Speaker 13: he is. And you know those guys knew who Jackson,
• 53:13
  Speaker 13: Alex and Klani. They've been doing the business.
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: Sounders were knocked out of concor CAFF despite winning Wednesday.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: They just didn't have the tiebreaker numbers for that. And
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: they returned to MMLS play tomorrow night at lumen Field
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: and they are off to a four and one and
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: one start. But that much soccer this early in the season,
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: when you have all of those injuries that seem to
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: be mounting for the Mad Scientists squad, I don't know
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: how many of the typical starters are will actually play
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: on Saturday.
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't.
• 53:47
  Speaker 4: I really try to understand soccer and the way their
• 53:50
  Speaker 4: season goes. But with the CONCA caff and then the
• 53:51
  Speaker 4: Conka caffin, then the regular season, and then the whatever
• 53:54
  Speaker 4: champions thing they do.
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: I get confused, and we are six days. Nothing confused
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: about this. Everybody understands fully the power of draftmus.
• 54:05
  Speaker 11: It's Draftmas time. It's traftmus time. Smell of pigskin in
• 54:11
  Speaker 11: the air. It's traftless time. Yeah, draftless time. There's speculation everywhere.
• 54:20
  Speaker 11: Some teams are traded off and some are trading down.
• 54:24
  Speaker 5: They hope to make.
• 54:25
  Speaker 11: Them most the Versingle round. It's traftless time. It's traffmus chime,
• 54:31
  Speaker 11: a magical time of the.
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: Hey, Vegas is on the clockman on the clock for
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: a while. There's no mystery. Fernando Mendoza will be the
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: number one pick, the Heisman Trophy winner out of Indiana.
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: But everything else is a mystery. Even as early as
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: number two overall in the draft. We don't know where
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: this draft is heading. That's why I don't care if
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: it is a down year in talent. It's gonna be
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: a spectacular NFL draft starting next Thursday. Seahawks right now
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: the thirty second pick. None of us expect them to
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: hold on to the thirty second pick. John typically trades
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: down out of the first round at that stage, and
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: he has only four picks this year, so that is
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: the expectation, but you never know. That's the beauty of Draftmas.
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: The Jets, the Browns, the Chiefs, the Cowboys, and the
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: Dolphins all have multiple first round picks, so they should
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: be the by math logic, they should be the big
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: movers and shakers. And this year's draft, by the way,
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: there will be five people they'll have multiple picks. Wednesday
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: at the Maler Millin Mock Draft. It's back the annual tradition.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: That is David Softy Maler and Hugh Millan an entire
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: show next Wednesday dedicated to mock drafting with you the listeners,
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: the designated listeners that will participate for fabulous prizes Wednesday
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: right here on KHAR And speaking of Draftmas, coming up
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: next that is the Daily Staples known as Stocking Stuffer
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: is the latest NFL Draft rumors next on kJ R.
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: All right, man, We've been doing a lot of drafting
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: here as of late. Bucky's missed out on all of
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: the fun as our brand new Green Jacket draft season
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: is underway. We had an expert here in studio that
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: was nice for a change. Oh cool, Yeah, I have
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: somebody sitting over there that knew what they were talking about.
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: Spencer Hawes helped us do our NBA Green Jacket draft.
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: Not only helped us, say, he participated and analyzed our picks.
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: I thought he was a little.
• 56:32
  Speaker 6: Rough on me.
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: That's okay, though, I can take it. We're gonna do
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: it again today. We've got an NHL playoff getting ready
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: to get started, so we're gonna preview the NHL Playoffs
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: with an expert who will draft with us today. He's
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: always been an analyst for us in the past, but
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: today he's actually going to draft with us. And I
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: think maybe you've all heard of him joining us on
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: the program the lovable voice of your Seattle Crack and
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: it is Everett fits you who joins us on Chuck
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: and Buck. Good morning, sir.
• 57:01
  Speaker 6: I am so ready for this.
• 57:04
  Speaker 12: I've heard these drafts done before across multiple sports. I've
• 57:09
  Speaker 12: analyzed this draft. Now I get to be in this draft.
• 57:14
  Speaker 12: Oh I can't wait.
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: I think you get last pick just because you're the expert.
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: Don't worry about it. I don't any of you turns.
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: That's what you just.
• 57:25
  Speaker 6: Told us.
• 57:29
  Speaker 12: Two months later and with zero points.
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: Well, this is pretty tricky. We do goals, we draft players,
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: and of course you've got to marry with the teams
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: you think are going to go the furthest and then
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: the guys that are going to score the goals, and
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: it's it can be pretty tricky because there are just
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: far more upsets ever in the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: than you see in the NBA playoffs.
• 57:51
  Speaker 12: Bottom line, there are more upsets and also too, I
• 57:55
  Speaker 12: think of the NHL, your top players, you're McKinnon's, McDavid, etc.
• 58:01
  Speaker 6: Those players.
• 58:02
  Speaker 12: I mean, you zero in on those guys, and you'll
• 58:05
  Speaker 12: hear every hockey expert tell you that it's your third line,
• 58:09
  Speaker 12: it's your second, third, fourth line.
• 58:11
  Speaker 6: That wins you playoffs series.
• 58:13
  Speaker 12: So just because you scored forty goals in the regular
• 58:17
  Speaker 12: season doesn't mean you're going to score forty goals in
• 58:20
  Speaker 12: the playoffs.
• 58:20
  Speaker 6: I mean, you may only get five.
• 58:22
  Speaker 12: You never know, right, So NHL playoffs are very hard
• 58:26
  Speaker 12: to handicap. And I know a couple of my buddies
• 58:28
  Speaker 12: who are fantasy hockey experts and they do this for
• 58:32
  Speaker 12: a living and they're like the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs
• 58:35
  Speaker 12: are so hard because you want to go for the
• 58:38
  Speaker 12: top producers in the regular season, but you know your
• 58:41
  Speaker 12: strategy changes when you're only guaranteed four games.
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: Man, well, I think we better get to it. We
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: were going to do our green Jacket ceremony and give
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: Bucky his green jacket for his crack and fantasy season.
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: He did win it. I mentioned it. Let's move on.
• 58:58
  Speaker 6: Ah not better?
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: No, No, I thought for sure I was winning this year.
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: I loved my team. I finished last. I finished last.
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: Bucket won by twenty points. All right, Ashley, what's our
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: draft order here?
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: Well, somehow I ended up with the first pick.
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, look at Ashley.
• 59:13
  Speaker 4: Kid ended up with a second pick. Oh, Chuck ended
• 59:16
  Speaker 4: up with a third pick.
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: He did get the last.
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: I never did it get the last pick.
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: Yes, well, he's foo confident, cool cool, all right. So
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: we're looking for goal scores in the Stanley Cup playoffs.
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: It's our Stanley Cup playoff preview. Sadly it won't to
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: involve our Seattle Kraken, but we got sixteen teams ready
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: to drop the puck in the next three days. And
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: so Ashley with the number one pick, who's going to
• 59:44
  Speaker 2: score the most goals? This postseason.
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: Well, I wish I would have talked to Everett about
• 59:47
  Speaker 4: this before hid because obviously he said, now the strategy
• 59:52
  Speaker 4: should change, But I'm sticking with it.
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with the Nathan McKinnon.
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: Damn you, damn it. Well, I guess that was the
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: That was kind of the obvious. Frankly, Evertt, I think
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: he's the best player in hockey. And I know you
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: like Connor McDavid, but that guy plays at such speed,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: with such tenacity, such a great passer, He's so fast,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: and then this year he's the best goal scorer in
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: the regular season. I think he's the best player in
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: the game, and he might be on the best team.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: I think that was the obvious number one pick.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 6: Well, especially with the Avalanche.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 12: I mean they're probably gonna go all the way or
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 12: at least to the conference finals. So I mean you're
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 12: looking at a at long for longevity's sake. Yeah, I
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 12: think McKinnon obvious there.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: Obvious, no brainer, right, nice John for John Ashley. Yeah,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: you didn't have to guess that at all. All right, kid,
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 2: you are up. Well, I'll jump on the Connor McDavid Wade,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: Oh look at you? Why not Okay, well, Everett, he's
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: really good.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 6: I mean, listen, three finals in a row. I have
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 6: Edmonton and Tampa in the final.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 12: Oh well, thank you every that's that's my final.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 6: But again, Connor McDavid, he's dynamic.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 12: He's one of the very few players in this league
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 12: who can literally take over a game by himself. You
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 12: can shut everything else down around him and he'll still
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 12: beat you three to one.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: So you've got Edmondson in the finals this year over Colorado.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: How about that? Okay, I also have Tampa Bay in
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: the finals, and so I'm just gonna go ahead and
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: grab their top score. Forty four goals this year. For
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: Nikita Kucherof, I had him last year and he wasn't
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: good in the postseason. But I can't imagine lightning will
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: strike twice in that area. Again, well played, I think.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 12: I think Kucherov, I mean, I wouldn't call him underrated,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 12: but maybe under talked about. I mean, because we talked
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 12: so much about McDavid and McKinnon and dry Sidle and
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 12: all these other guys, and I think sometimes people forget
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 12: that Nikita Kucherov is working on his fourth consider just
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 12: completing his fourth consecutive one hundred points season.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 6: I mean, he is a he's going to be a
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 6: Hall of Famer. He's got cups.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 12: But sometimes I think Nikita kuchiov kind of has that
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 12: oh yeah, Nikita.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 6: Kuchiov is down there effect on some people. All right.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: Here they are the first two picks of Everett Fitziu's
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: drafting history. He's been an analyst, he's never made picks before,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: and he was not sweating being fourth in the draft.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: So show us your magic fits you.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 12: So I think I'm gonna start with I'm gonna go
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 12: to Colorado. I'm gonna go to Martin Nachius hundred points,
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 12: thirty eight goals this year, And again, I think he's
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 12: one of those players that I mentioned. Colorado's got so
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 12: many weapons and you kind of have to pick your spots.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 12: In Natus, I think is one of those guys that
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 12: can fly under the radar.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 6: He can get some greasy goals. He's on the power play,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 6: he scores from all over the ice. Many him. And
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 6: then I'm gonna go to Tampa and then I'm going
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 6: to get uh oh, this is a hard one. I'm
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 6: going to get Jake Genzel. I had a couple of Tampa.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 12: Tampa Bay ands on my list, but I'm gonna take
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 12: Genseil uh kind of for the same reason I think,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 12: you know Tampa, they don't have a lot of weaknesses.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 12: And Jake Gonzil he is fast, he's on the power play,
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 12: he is skilled. He protects the puck very very well.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 12: He reminds me, you know a lot of it. He's
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 12: a Bobby McMahon, loves to shoot the puck from anywhere.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 12: You never know where that shot is coming from. And
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 12: I think you know he he'll catch some goalies off guards.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 12: Will give me those two natures and Gensel for.
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 6: My first two.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: All right, Well, ever To of course gets to pick,
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: and he's analyzing his own guys. We get to analyze
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: your guys as well, So.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 6: Gonsel expert analysis right there. I just.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: Those fine, all right, I've got the next selection here. Man,
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and grab him because I just
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: think he's fantastic and I know he doesn't score a
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: lot of goals. Hell, he's a defenseman for goodness sake.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: But I'm gonna go with Cale mccarr. I'll take him, yes,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: because I want a Colorado Avalanche. I think they're going deep,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: and he's just so special Everett, and I think he'll
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: score more goals in the postseason than he did in
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: the regular season.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 6: Well, because cal mccarr has this per game.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 12: Kil mccarr has this habit, he has this tendency he
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 12: jumps into the play and even last night I had
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 12: to double check my line sheet just to make sure
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 12: that that was indeed number eight below the tops of
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 12: the circles. That was number eight going into the corner
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 12: winning puck battles.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 6: I mean, he.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 12: Basically is a fifth forward or a fourth forward rather
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 12: on the ice every night for Colorado.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 6: So that's actually a very very good he was. I
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 6: didn't I didn't think he was gonna slide back to me.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: But good on you, all right, good, good good. I
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: like that, like hearing that. Man, we had this guy
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: more on more offen. Yeah, a lot better than Hawes.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: All right, kid, you are up next. You got Connor
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: McDavid on your squad. Who are you gonna add here?
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: I will take Morgan? Geeky, Oh, Morgan, geeky. How far
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: could the Bruins go? Do you think? Everett?
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 12: So this is geeky was a player. I thought about
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 12: this one for a very very long time. Buffalo had
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 12: a outther Buffalo. Boston a very surprising season this year.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 12: A lot of people didn't expect Boston to be in
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 12: the playoffs. They were gonna be in the Gavin mckinnis sweepstakes.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 12: But now they've got a hundred points. Over a hundred points,
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 12: they're number two in the in the Atlantic Division. It's
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 12: about how far can they go? And I think because
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 12: it's such an unexpected season for them, Morgan Geeky, I mean,
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 12: he's he can have a really big playoff.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 12: His goal scoring did drop off at a certain point.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 12: I think he had fifty goals in the calendar year
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 12: of twenty twenty five, so that's the most goals in
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 12: the NHL.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 6: In that time.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 12: But his goal scoring dropped off a little bit. But
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 12: when that pressure ramps up, he's playing with David Pastunoch.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 12: I think Morgan Geeky is is poised to get some goals.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 12: He will score this postseason. But I'm just I'm curious
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 12: how far Boston's gonna go. That's my own caveat with
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 12: Boston is how far are they gonna go.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: I do have him upsetting Buffalo, but that's as far
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: as I have them going, and Buffalo's heavily favored, right.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 6: And they're heavily favored.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 12: Yeah, So I mean, if Listen can Morgan Geeky get
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 12: you four.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 6: Goals in a seven game series? Does the series even
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 6: go seven games?
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 12: I mean a great pick to quote the Great League course,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 12: So that's a great pick.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 12: I don't know if they're going to go that far
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 12: to actually make much of a difference.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, for a bad pick, it was a good pick.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 6: Pick.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 5: It was.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: At least we got a cracking taken in the draft
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: this year, and then Connor McDavid a future cracking Yeah,
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: that's gonna happen this off. So he's read to trade
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: for him, all right, Ashley, you are up. He got
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 2: back to back selections in our NHL Playoff preview Green
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: Jacket draft.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 4: Well, I am going to go with a guy that
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 4: I feel like, kid always gets him. He always performs
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 4: a lot better than Connor McDavid does. So I'm gonna
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 4: go with Leone dry Sidle.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: Now, I will say he is injured right now, and
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 2: I would give you a chance to change that he
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: might play in the very first game that we just
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: don't know that he's going to play in the very
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: first game. Are you hearing anything on that front, Everett?
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 12: If I mean, if he's able to play, he will play.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 12: There is this sense in Edmonton that I mean, it's
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 12: been back to back Cup finals, and there very much
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 12: is a we have to get this done.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 6: I don't care if my leg falls off. I don't
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 6: care if i'm.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 12: All if I'm only in offensive zone opportunities. Like this
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 12: Oilers team, there is no next year for them. They
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 12: have to win it this year.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 6: So I think you.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 12: Know they're gonna they're gonna pump so much cortzone in it,
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 12: and that lega is I think I think.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 6: That he's gonna play, but we'll see how effective he
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 6: can be.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, so you're good with it? Okay, all right? Who
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 2: else are you gonna add from Buffalo? Oh so Ashley saying,
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 2: I don't care about all your Boston bruin talk. I'm
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: taking a Buffalo Sabers. Sabers are advancing. He's big, Everett.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: He's a really large young man.
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 6: He's a big he's he's big, but he skates so well.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 6: That's Tay Thompson's thing.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 12: I have never seen a player that is six six
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 12: outside of the NBA move as well as he does.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 12: I mean, it is remarkable how well he skates and
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 12: again he shoots from everywhere.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 6: He uses his size to get to the net. But
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 6: I very much like Morgan geeky.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 12: Buffalo has not been to the playoffs in fifteen years,
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 12: so I don't know if they're gonna use all their
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 12: energy and their mojo in the first round and then
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 12: just fizzle out from there.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 6: I like Tame Thompson forty goals.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 12: You don't score forty by accident, But I just wonder
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 12: how far Buffalo is gonna go.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 2: All right, next pick is kid here in round number three?
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: Who are you going with? I will take this. I'll
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 2: take Brandon Hagel. Okay, Tampa Bay.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 6: That was that was my other lightning.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: Were you going to take.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 6: End?
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 12: I I thought I was gonna get him at the end.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 12: Brandon Hagel, he's sneaky. I mean, he he just finds
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 12: ways to score goals. He goes to the net, he
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 12: can get into those scoring areas. He doesn't need a
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 12: lot of time to get his shots off.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 6: I mean, I can't tell.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 12: You how many times I've watched him play and there's
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 12: a couple of defenders draped over him, but he still
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 12: has an opportunity to get a quality scoring chance off.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 12: So that was that was the other one that I
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 12: would I was waffling toward Gensel or Hegel.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 6: I like Goensel's speed a little bit better.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 12: There's a little bit more obvious skill with Gonsel's game,
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 12: but Hegel's greasy and he'll he'll grease you some goals.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 2: And one thing, I mean, we're we're drafting guys we're
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: going to score goals in the playoffs, but let's face
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: a part of this is how far you can advance.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 2: And we haven't even talked really much about goaltending. And
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 2: Tampa Bay with with Hallibuck not making the playoffs, I mean,
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: they might have the best goaltender in the entire Stanley
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 2: Cup playoffs. I like the Swayman kid from Boston as well,
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: but factors in. I mean, we're we're we're drafting goal scorers,
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 2: but you don't win unless your team advances, and the
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 2: goalies are going to have a big say in that effort.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 12: Well, and Vasilevski, I mean, for for Tampa, he's got
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 12: so much experience in the playoffs. He's gone on deep
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 12: runs in the playoffs. Another goaltending candem that actually I
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 12: think a lot of people are sleeping on as Utah.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 12: I think Correll the Melk is a very underrated goalie
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 12: in this league. He just he is so technically sound.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 12: He doesn't waste movement. He doesn't waste motion. So I
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 12: mean when when when he makes a save there are
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 12: very few rebounds, You're not seeing him flop around like
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 12: a fish out of water. He's not gonna leave the
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 12: of the net that often to play the puck. He
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 12: lets the play come to him. So Vimelka is another
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 12: one that I think can can surprise people in this one.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: For you Jah, all right, I got my third round pick.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: Nobody's taking a Carolina Hurricane to this point. Nobody's taken
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: a Dallas Star to this point. But I also don't
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 2: have an Edmondtonouler. I'm taking Zach Hyman here in round
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: number three. What say you? Fits you?
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 6: That sneaky again.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 12: He's one of those Zach Hyman finds goals. He's on
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 12: the power play. He can play top line. But if
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 12: they need someone to get that third line going, Zach Hyman,
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 12: you can him literally anywhere in your lineup, and he
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 12: will find goals. He will find offense for you. He
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 12: will generate offense. So Zach Hyman, I mean he's a
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 12: utility He's a utility player. He's a Swiss army knife.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 12: And that I think that, I mean, that might be
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 12: the the sneaky analytical pick for you.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 6: I think that that proves.
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 2: That's who thenk Yeah.
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 6: That proves that you know something, you know something.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 2: He just seems like every postseason like he scores a
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 2: lot of goals, like you know, like Himen again uh
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: so again. Yeah, that's what it's all about, right, all right, Everett,
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 2: you get to round out your roster here. You've got
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 2: uh nacious nachs nacious and now you get back to
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 2: back picks here to finish out your roster. Where are
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: you going?
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 12: I want to I want to go to to I
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 12: want I want to get the same guy on the
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 12: same team.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 6: But I can't do that. I'm gonna go.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 12: Uh Dylan Gunther from Utah Utah, Utah I think has
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 12: the easiest path maybe outside of the Carolina Hurricanes out
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 12: of the East, Utah's got the easiest path to minimally
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 12: the conference finals, they have to they play Vegas in
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 12: the first round. I was not super uh, you know,
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 12: turned on by Vegas this year.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm not a big Vegas guy.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 12: And then again, I think I think Anaheim Edmonton's gonna
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 12: get by Anaheim and then Utah Edmonton. I mean that
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 12: I've got Edmonton in my final. But I think if
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 12: Utah can get by the Oilers, I mean, that's gonna
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 12: set up potentially Colorado Dallas against Utah in the conference finals.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 12: And I like Utah against Dallas, and I think Utah
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 12: is probably the only team out of the West that
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 12: I can see really giving the Abs some headache. So
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 12: I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go Gunther from Mettaw the Mammoth.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 12: And then my goodness, you know what, if we're going,
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 12: if we're just going straight goals, give me Wyatt.
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 6: Johnston from Dallas. Yeah, forty five goals this year. Again,
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 6: he's just he's really taking off.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 12: And I was talking to a couple of their people
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 12: down in Dallas earlier this year. You know, he's got
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 12: career hising goals each of his last three years. And
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 12: it's kind of a running joke that he was a
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 12: little ticked off and he.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 6: Didn't win the Calder over Maddy.
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 12: But here's a couple of years ago and he's just
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 12: been on this endless pursuit to try to prove everybody wrong.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 12: And I mean he's continuing to put up points. I mean,
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 12: he had eighty six points this season. He had five
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 12: goal or four goals in his last three games coming
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 12: out of the out of the year. So I'm going
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 12: to take Wyatt Johnston with my with my last.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: Pick, I was going to take that, and now I
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 2: will take a Carolina. I kind of want to take
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 2: Miko Rattnan because he was just lighting it up last
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: year in the playoffs, but I'm going to go with
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 2: a Carolina Hurricane here, and I think I'm going to
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 2: surprise you a little bit and we do have to
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: kind of speed up this last round. But I'm gonna
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: go ahead. I'm not gonna take Jarvis, I'm not gonna
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 2: take Aho. I'm gonna take swetch Nikoff. That's where I'm
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 2: going to go.
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 3: In the last last year in the playoffs.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he was if I remember, he seems
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 2: like it was swetch Nikoff that was always scoring the
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 2: goals for them.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 12: And goal scorers in the playoffs a lot of times.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 12: I mean, again, it's a different game, so you only
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 12: you only need a couple guys to to really set
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 12: the tone for you. And and sech Nakov is one
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 12: of those tone setters that I think can find himself
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 12: at the top of a lot of offensive categories and playoffs.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: Kid Nick Smaltz Utah, Oh, he's got He's like the
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 2: Mammoth too, not just their uniforms.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 6: Yeah. He Schmaltz is another one. I mean he he
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 6: loves it there.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 12: He signed an eight by eight contracts to stay in
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 12: Utah after this season, and he has said on multiple
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 12: occasions like this is where he wants to end up.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 12: And and if there's anybody committed to go in on
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 12: that playoff run, it is Nick Smaltzon. Again, him and
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 12: Clayton Keller, that dynamic duo on their top line. I
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 12: think that he's gonna score a ton miss postseason.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 6: With the Mammoth. I think having the easiest route to
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 6: the conference finals.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: All right, finish us up, Ashley.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 4: All right, Well, because i gotta have two from the
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 4: East and two from the West, I'm gonna go with
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 4: Seth Jarvis from Carolina.
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: All right, she went in and God, Jarvis, how I
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: mean we haven't talked a lot about Carolina and their
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 2: ability to win it all? Do they have one?
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 12: I mean every year you go into the season, you
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 12: go onto the playoffs saying, if the Hurricanes don't win
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 12: it this year, they're never gonna win it, right, But
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 12: they somehow find themselves back in the conference finals, back
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 12: in the second round every single season. So I'm gonna
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 12: say the line, if they don't win it this year,
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 12: I mean, when are.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 6: They gonna win it? They have to get to the
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 6: final this year? All right?

• 1:18:38
  Speaker 2: It's another thing too. I don't know if you were
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 2: just I'm randomly thinking you invented an entire holiday built
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 2: around the NFL draft called Draftmas that we've been celebrating
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 2: all month long. I don't know who would do a
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: thing like that. And then it's another thing entirely to
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 2: be somebody that's getting ready to be drafted come next

• 1:19:13
  Speaker 2: It's great to have you on. How I mean, are
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 2: you excited? Nervous? Where are your emotions right now? You're
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 2: six days away? From knowing when you're going to be
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 2: drafted and where you're going to be starting your professional
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: football career.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 7: I was definitely nerve wracking, you know, hasn't creep closer
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 7: and becoming surreal. Just been trying to live in a
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 7: moment and take it day by day, not trying to
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 7: look too far next week. Just really just trying to
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 7: focus on the things I need to get done this week,
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 7: you know, training, still focusing on that, and then you know,
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 7: when that movement comes, just to live it to the
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 7: ultimate full list. But I've been embraced the whole process.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 7: I've enjoyed the whole process, and ultimately just to see
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 7: the success that are really the hard work and stuff
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 7: that you've been doing over these years, you know, finally
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 7: become reality as you know, just insane. So you've really
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 7: just been living in a moment, but emotions are everywhere.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: Where will you be watching and who will you be
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: watching with?
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 7: I We'll be in San Diego, California, and I will
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 7: just be with you know, family and friends. Well, I
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 7: mean it may seem like a party because I have
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 7: ten ten siblings, fifteen nieces, six nephews and uh sol
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 7: we got that many family members. It's gonna feel like
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 7: a little party though.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, your family and my family got together, we could
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 2: probably fill a stadium. It's sounding like, so, yeah, I
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 2: know what it's.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 7: Like to be roster.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 2: Well that's great. I mean, are you when when are
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: you believing that you should be watching intently? Are you
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: giving yourself to be a first chance to be a
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 2: first round pick on Thursday? Or are you more expecting
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: Day two to be when you and the family need
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 2: to be quiet and watch the picks.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 7: Well, I'm just kind of living out the process. I
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 7: think I'm gonna just be quiet the whole draft, from first,
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 7: second round, third round, just fourthfront fil just because I'm
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 7: supporting my teammates as well, you know, and their success
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 7: and their hard work. You know, a couple of guys
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 7: that came into college with like Epeesis Price Sock and
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 7: to Carlo Davis and then he got Trading Stukes and
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 7: Darland Johnson, Jenison Smith, those guys that there was only
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 7: then a couple of guys that I met along with
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 7: the process, thought this pre draft process and stuff. So
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 7: just supporting those guys. So I just think that I'll
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 7: be you know, supporting those guys for the whole thing,
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 7: and uh, you know, ultimately you know, waiting for my
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 7: moment as well, but ultimately sharing a moment with them too,
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 7: just because I know how much work they put in,
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 7: and uh, just to be able to build these relationships
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 7: over the past couple of years and then even these
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 7: relationships that I built over the past couple of weeks,
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 7: the past couple of months with some of the guys
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 7: in the pre draft processes. What's just all about, So
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 7: just being able to support them and their big day
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 7: as well, so I know when my time, they're doing
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 7: the same. So I'm locked in on the whole draft.
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Former Washington running back Jonah Coleman getting ready for
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 2: his name to be announced next week at the NFL Draft,
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: joining us right here on Chuck and Buck in the morning. Yeah,
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 2: it's very interesting in today's college game that not only
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 2: did you have Arizona teammates and you have Washington teammates,
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 2: you have teammates that were Arizona teammates and Washington teammates.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 2: And that has a lot to do, if not everything,
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: to do with your head coach Jed Fish. Talk about
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 2: your relationship with him. It certainly sounds special from his
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: point of view, from your point of view, your relationship
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 2: with coach and how you believe he's prepared you for
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 2: this moment to be a professional football player.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 7: Well, from nutrition, from the weight room, from our coach
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 7: step though, which is our beyond football program guy literally
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 7: the head to tell of what Coacht Fish and the
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 7: culture that he's building at the University of Washington and
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 7: what he did at the University of Arizona. It's literally
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 7: identical from the offense and how things are ran. Terminology
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 7: may be a little different as far as us having
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 7: standards and values and how we you know, carry ourselves
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 7: outside the building inside the building, and everything has just
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 7: become so identical as far as being a pro and
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 7: that just being with Coach Fish and you know, with
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 7: Coach Graham and other staff members that are on the staff,
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 7: that has ultimately just made this whole process that I'm
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 7: going through a lot easier. So Hey, just to see
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 7: that show up, it's something that I wasn't surprised about,
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 7: but it was just kind of surprising.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 2: That you're living in that moment the oh.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 7: Man, Like, the offense is literally the same, the formations
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 7: are the same. Just to see that pop up and
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 7: is actually insane, and even like the small, like the
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 7: small like details like people say like ball secret, job security,
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 7: and that's something that I learned my freshman year and
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 7: people were just saying around the building and I kid
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 7: you not, Like I had a question in a draft
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 7: me and someone was like, I just need you to
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 7: finish the sentence and he was like job security as well,
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 7: and I was like, ball security is like correct, you know,
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 7: So little things like that popping up, it may not
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 7: mean a lot, just to you know, things like that
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 7: pop up as like dang, Like you know, I really
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 7: learned a lot in college and you know, really was
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 7: a sponge, So I believe that my transition would be
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 7: a lot smoother than other guys. Had a meeting yesterday
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 7: with the colts and he simply said, like, you recited
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 7: everything and talked about everything better than anyone I've ever
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 7: met with. So just to you know, be able to
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 7: you know, leave your mark on someone is ultimately what
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 7: I want to do. But that whole process and that
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 7: whole program is literally ready to build kids going through
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 7: that that that system for for the next level. So
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 7: you know, if you're a collegial career out there, you know,
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 7: a transfer and you want to be prepared for the
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 7: next level University of Washington and Jet Fish and this
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 7: staff is the best way to go in my opinion.
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 2: That's a hell of an endorsement from Jonah Coleman. You
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 2: said you had a meeting with the Colts. Have you
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 2: had a meeting with the Seahawks.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 7: Yeah. I actually haven't had a zoom with him or
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 7: anything informal will with the running back coach after combine
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 7: INFEMO is like one on one.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 2: And then I got.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 7: Invited to come up after Pro Day and I went
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 7: over there and you know, met John Snyder and had
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 7: another meeting with the running back coach, but nothing like
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 7: too much communication. But I've met the GM and the
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 7: position coach and stuff like that.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 2: So do you have a rooting interest for a team
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 2: you want to play for? By chance? Not to lead you,
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 2: not to lead the witness.
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 6: Here, I mean.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 7: Just a fan base have really been heavy. It's been
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 7: really really two fan bases that's been coming at me
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 7: a lot, and in Denver and Seattle.
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 2: Crazy.
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 7: But I'm blessed enough to play for any team and
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 7: whatever opportunity I get in wherever, you know, I end up.
