10-14 H2: Gregg Bell Joins, Waiver Wire Wednesday & Reckless @ Breakfast · Chuck in the Morning

• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't get much sleep last night. I was
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: telling Andrews off the air. Mind was occupied. But one
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning, this is really creepy. This is
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: like Halloween. But I think it was actually, I know
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: it was actually happening. I kept hearing the laughter of children. Oh, God.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Like outside my window.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: On a Tuesday night?
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: On a Tuesday night at one o'clock. And there was
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: somebody that was closing doors. truck doors and the truck
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: was running out on the street and everything else and
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: then in the background of all of this noise of
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: this person moving or whatever he was doing at one
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning and disrupting the neighborhood in the
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: back there's just subtle like The laughter of children.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, God.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: That's creepy.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Is that not creepy?
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: That's insanely creepy.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I wish you would have recorded it and brought it in. Well,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: I almost went out to the street to kind of
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: figure out what was going on.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you didn't do that.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's actually a very interesting point. Should I have
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: done that?
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: No. No.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Then what if Chuck's not coming in for the radio today?
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: What happened to Chuck?
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Nobody's going to miss me.
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: No.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: All right. We got to put a pin in this.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: We got to talk about this later because I really
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: didn't know. I wanted to go out and investigate this,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: but I didn't know if it was the right thing
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: to do. And then if I get out there, am
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: I going to say something to some dude and then
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: end up in a fistfight in the middle of the street?
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: You did the right thing.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: You went to sleep or hopefully try to go to sleep.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: And I didn't get much leave. That's the one thing
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: I paid for. All right, Greg Bell's going to join
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: us here in a minute. Let me really go quickly
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: through your headlines brought to you by Frostbrood Coors Light.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Kraken win in a shootout for a third straight victory
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: on the road, this time against the Philadelphia Flyers. We'll
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: find some time to talk about that later in the show.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I know Anders wants to. Sounders are in action against
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: the Dallas Fighting Matthew McConaughey's tonight. Yes, they have two
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: matches this week. The first one will take place tonight
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: in Dallas. MLB playoffs, the Tampa Bay Rays won over
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: the Cleveland Guardians 3-1 last night in Tampa. That evens
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: the series at one game apiece. Good news is Game
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: 3 will be played in a real ballpark two days
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: from now, and I can't wait to watch playoff baseball
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: in something that doesn't look like an Ikea. Game 3
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: of the National League Divisional Series will be played in
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles tonight, and... Playoff games, you've got to admit,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: at that stadium, pretty epic. So game three, the Dodgers
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: are down 2-0. That will be played starting tonight at
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: 5 o'clock. College football, Huskies at Purdue for Friday night football. And,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of course, the Seahawks will be playing tomorrow night, the
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Thursday night football game this week in Denver against the
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: 3-2 Broncos. Joining us now to talk more about it
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: is our Seahawks insider, Greg Bell.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: As part of our continuing NFL coverage for the 12th man,
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: this is 12th Man News. Part of Chuck's daily visit

  Speaker 1: For more info, visit EmeraldQueen.com. I should mention that, did I?
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure. We were talking about laughing children and
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: ghosts and stuff. and fighting on the streets. The headlines
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: brought to you by Frost Brewed Coors Light. Cold as
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: the Rockies, which is where the Seahawks will be. Yes,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: they will. Smack dab in the middle of the Rockies.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: And a mile high up. Joining us is Greg Bell
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: to discuss that. Good morning, sir.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: You like the Denver trip? You gotta love the Denver trip.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Denver's a great city. I do.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: Unfortunately, this time I'm just flying in day of the game,
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: but I usually love going into the Flatirons, or I've
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: gone skiing before in Denver game trips.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Greg hitting the slopes.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, Greg hits the slopes. Let's go. He's an adventurer.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah. It's supposed to be like 45 degrees and drizzly
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: and almost winter there Thursday.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a little bit of that going on in
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: that area. Colorado, Utah area right now. Seems premature, but
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: all right. How does the mile-high error, what is your
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: 22 years of covering the National Football League, how big
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: of a factor does that become when you go to Denver?
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: I think it's less in football than it is in basketball.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: When I covered the Huskies and Romar's basketball team, at
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: the University of Colorado, they have a sign 5,280 feet
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: in the locker room to remind visiting teams of the
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: psych job. and they have signs all over mile high
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: stadium or whatever they call it now saying the same
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: thing but my sense is in football because the the
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: effort plays are in spurts and then you rest and
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: then in spurts and you're that it's not quite as
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: now the defensive players will tell you that when teams
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: often go no huddle on them that's when it gets
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: a little problematic it's a factor but julian love was
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: talking about that this week that he's never played there
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: which isn't kind of incredible for a guy who's been
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: in the league almost a decade now, and he's kind
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: of excited and anxious to see what this is going
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: to be like. If they were playing a series of games,
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: they probably would go in earlier than the day before
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: to acclimate, but they're just playing the game and getting out.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: But it is something. It's not nothing, and the players
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: will probably feel it, and there'll be more oxygen masks
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: on the sidelines than you normally see. It's not nothing,
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: but I don't just anecdotally i think it's a little
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: bit less than say a soccer or basketball where they
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: run more continually well i.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Will see if there is adverse weather if it ends
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: up affecting sort of the approaches offensively it's kind of
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: an interesting study we talked about it at seven o'clock
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: i mean bone nicks is uh uh suffering from it
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: feels like fear of throwing down the field uh and
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: is his yards per pass is very low one of
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the worst in the national football league and He seems
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: to be erring on the side of conservative quarterback play
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: where Sam he just loves to let it rip even
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: though he might not be at the top of his
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: game right now either in order to be effective in
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: that role so I am curious to see how the
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks might adjust to the way that they've played so
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: far this season in time for Thursday night what do
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: you think Sam's marching orders is it continue to let
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: it rip despite the early rash of turnover.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: So far His marching orders for the week are get
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: the ball out more quickly. And after the game ended,
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: he went to his new offensive coordinator, Brian Fleury, and
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: he said, here are some of the base plays I
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: really love. Let's get back to some simple, basic July-August
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: install plays. Not so much specific to a game plan
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: or an opponent, but what I like to do best.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: And that's really been the mandate and the charge this week.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: It somewhat tends that way. As Fleury was explaining yesterday,
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: Someone tends that way anyway in a short week on
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: a Thursday game after a Sunday that you condense your
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: game plan. It's not quite as extensive as it might be,
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: and you go back to your bread-and-butter plays. But this
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: week in particular, after five interceptions in three games, Fleury
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: and Darnold have talked about going back to the plays
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Darnold's most comfortable and likes the most. Just base plays
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: that you could do against any opponent. So that's one. Two...
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: The corollary is to get the ball out more quickly,
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: to not hold onto the ball as long. He is
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: among the longest in the league at holding onto the
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: ball and throwing, when last year he was in the
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: bottom third, 21st in the league in time to throw.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: So the implication is he's holding onto the ball too long,
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: guys are getting covered, he's making poor decisions. Take away
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: those factors by just planting the foot and then throwing
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: on time. Now guys still have to be open, and
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: you can't throw into the flat when there's a defender
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: between you and the receiver that he did twice now
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: in the last two games. But that's the charge this week.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: We'll see how that changes. About Nix, not only is
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: he throwing almost shorter than anybody in your right, it's
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: under six yards per attempt, he also is a sub-60% passer.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: So it's not like the shorter passes he's been more
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: accurate on. Part of his problem is he's been throwing
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: short for not much yardage, and when he throws, he's
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: not accurate. And that's been a concern for them, too.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: Another thing that jumps out to me about the Broncos' offense,
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: when I look at their numbers, they fumbled ten times
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: in five games. They haven't lost them all. They've lost three.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: But they're dropping the ball a lot, and I guarantee
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: you the Seahawks know that number, and their defense is
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: going to be hunting for the ball this week. Yeah.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, kind of very similar stories with these teams
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: right now. Quarterbacks not at the top of their game.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Running backs. The running back room is very suspicious. Just
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: as suspicious in Denver as it is here in Seattle,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: it feels. Two really great head coaches. I mean, they
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: both have pretty much identical stories heading into this game
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: tomorrow night. And they're both going to wear throwback jerseys.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: They are. The Seahawks are going to wear their home blues.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: I thought they were wearing their whites, but I guess
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: the whites are next year because the league has to
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: approve all that a year in advance so they can
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: sell them ahead of time and people can buy more
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: of them. But yeah, they're going to do their royal
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: blues tomorrow, apparently, and the Broncos are going to be
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: in whites for whatever that's worth. So road team home uniform.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: for the Seahawks. The other curiosity about the Broncos that
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: we'll see if the Seahawks can take advantage of is
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: the Broncos are allowing 145 yards rushing a game. 29th
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: in the league so far. We're starting to get into
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: the point now that you get into mid to late
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: October that the numbers are even enough to become trends.
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: The Statistics and team rankings in the league are skewed
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: early in the year, of course, by just one off performance.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: But 145 yards per game through five games is something
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: that Brian Fleury would like to test. The question, of course,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: for Seattle is, do you have the running backs to
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: test them? I think we're going to see Robert Henry Jr.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: reading between the lines this week. Coming off the short week,
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: they did a little roster roulette and gymnastics with Vellis
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Jones Jr. yesterday. They waved him and signed him back
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: onto the practice squad. which they could do right away
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: because he wasn't subject to league waivers as a somewhat
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: vested veteran, barely. But he's back on the practice squad
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: where he was last week before they activated him. We'll
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: see if– I would think that Henry's going to play.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, why not? Other guys are dropping the ball.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: There's not a home run threat, a fast game-breaking back
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: in their backfield right now, which Henry was in college.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: The price is on injury reserve. Maybe this Henry is
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: a chance to be a home run. Quick hitting back
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: until price comes back November 2nd.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell is with us, our Seahawks insider. If you
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: want to follow him, do so at gbellseattle. He's with
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: us nearly every day at 7.05. Tomorrow we'll do a
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: game day roundtable with he and Hugh Millen. They haven't
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: done a roundtable in three weeks, so excited to have
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: them both back for it tomorrow at 8 o'clock. Let's
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: discuss Nehemiah Pritchett because– Coach McDonald went out of his
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: way in his postgame remarks to talk about how good
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: he's playing, and yet he's not playing a lot. So
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: are we going to see that change? If you're going
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: to acknowledge that he's playing well, doesn't that equate to
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: more playing time for him going forward?
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: You would think. That was the most I've heard a
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: coach ever talk about a guy who played four snaps.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: Pritchett played four snaps on defense, and Diggs only played eight.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: We talked about how the extra corners only played 12
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: of the 60. I think that's going to change in
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: a big way in Denver. Excuse me, I thought it
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: was going to be in San Francisco, the San Francisco game,
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: back to the dime and extra defensive backs and Witherspoon inside.
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: And McDonald threw a change up on Shanahan because Shanahan
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: hadn't seen anything but diamond nickel. He didn't do it
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: as much with Witherspoon, not inside as much. I think
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: he's going to do Witherspoon inside of nickel. I asked
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: him about that this week and he basically said, yep,
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: we'd like to have Witherspoon inside, but there are factors
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: that how it affects how we play other people. He's
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: got to come to where he can trust the extra corner.
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: And right now he trusts Pritchett on how he, well,
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: he has played in the limited opportunities. I had, talked
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: to Pritchett in the locker room after the game on Sunday,
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: and he said, yep, I'm ready for whatever opportunities I have.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: He really credited Mike McDonald for his interception. I heard
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: Hugh Millen talking to you yesterday or Monday about that
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: particular interception, how McDonald schemed and tricked Purdy into thinking
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: they was in a different coverage, and that's what Pritchett said. Pritchett,
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: when I asked him about the interception, he goes, our
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: coach puts us in perfect spots. Now, McDonald says, I
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: don't always do that right. And he talked a little
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: bit when asked about why they didn't double Mike Evans
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: when Josh Jobe was having problems with him. He says,
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: sometimes a play caller gets it right. Sometimes a play
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: caller puts a guy in a bad position. And he
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: said he did multiple times put Jobe in a bad position.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: But to answer your question, Pritchett will play more than
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: four snaps or else it's all hot air talking about
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: how good he's played. Yeah.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Irv Charles, is he making his debut Thursday, and what
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: could that mean for Rashid Shahid's returning skills, or how
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: will they implement this attribute that they acquired from the
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Jets in the offseason?
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: Well, yes, he's active now. He's off the injured list.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: That was why they did the Velas Jones move off
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: the active roster to make room for Charles. They signed
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: Charles primarily for special teams when they got him. And
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: because they need to get Cooper Cup and especially Rashid
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: Shahid going behind Smith and Jigba, I don't think Charles
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: factors a ton into the wide receiver core. And they've
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: got other issues at receiver. They've got to get going
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: before him. So expect him to be a big factor
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: on special teams. This is why they got him in
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: the first place. But it is another option for depth
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: on wide receiver, yeah.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: And you will gain more information on injuries later today because,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're on the eve of the game. So
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: any idea, any finger on the pulse of who might
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: not be available tomorrow?
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: Well, today is supposed to be the game report, the
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: injury report that comes out just after 1 o'clock of questionables, doubtfuls,
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: and outs. McDonald won't say any more than what the
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: paper says. He's becoming even more vague than he used
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: to be about that stuff. I don't know if it's
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: the Graham-Benzinger effect or what, but he has clammed up
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: in a lot of best revealing about a lot of things,
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: but especially injuries lately. I don't see... I mean, the
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: one injury coming out of the 49er game was Drake Thomas,
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: and he returned to finish the game, and McDonald didn't
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: seem to think that was a big deal. I've said
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: this before, but it's worth repeating. There are a lot
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: of guys on that team that are just now being
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: able to walk with a normal gait from the game
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: on Sunday and some won't be walking with a normal
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: gait by the time the game starts tomorrow night. Yet
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: here they go. They're playing because the NFL demands it
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: and we watch it. But that's why you've noticed Jackson,
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: Smith and Jigba on the injury list, but they haven't
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: practiced at all this week. So these guys haven't even
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: tested themselves physically at all, trying to recuperate from the game.
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: I expect Smith and Jigba to play, um, I still
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: am trying to figure out how Drew Locke got on
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: the injured list by throwing warm-up passes between drives that
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: he's been on there. I think he's listed with an elbow,
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: if I'm not mistaken. But, yeah, so midweek, Thursday night
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: game after a Sunday game, the injury report is just,
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: it's a requirement that they have to fill, but they
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: haven't even been on the field at all to test
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: themselves physically.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: All right, what do you have on the show today
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: at 10 o'clock?
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: We're going to Denver. We're going to talk to the
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: beat writer for the Denver Post. Parker's a friend of mine.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: We've been covering the league for a little bit. And
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: we're going to talk about Bo Nix in particular and
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: what's going on with him and talk a little bit
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: of cracking as well. And Matty Beneers really impressed me.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: I hadn't watched a whole cracking game all season because
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: I was busy with the Seahawks. And Matty Beneers was
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: throwing his body around. He was forechecking. He was a
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: screen in front of the goaltender for the cracking second goal.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: I'm going to try to ask Mike Bettner Ian about
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: Matty Beneers. He's not really exactly a hulking big guy,
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: but he was playing like that last night.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, he wants to contribute. There's no question.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: He's not contributing the points, so you've got to do
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: it some other way.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: You've got to do it some other way at this stage.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: So we'll see. We'll see. But apparently he's a big
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: listener of the station. Matty Beneers loves him some KJR.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Look at that.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: I just walked right into it.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Thanks, Greg. He just became a much bigger
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: fan of the Greg Bell Show. Oh, thanks, Greg.
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: Was I mistaken in hearing John Forslund calling Matthew a
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: few times less? Is he growing up now?
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: I guess so.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Matthew Beneers.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah. It's like Anderson Hurst. Yeah. It's like Anders Hurst
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: now that you're a dad.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess that's true. Yeah. I mean, Forslund's so powerful,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: you probably would consider a name change.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, he could say any name.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: He could change names himself.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Right, exactly.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: Unilaterally, that's true.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: If he tells me to call you Gregory tomorrow, I'm
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: doing it.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: Martha Bell in Michigan would have an issue with that.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: All right, we'll listen at 10. Thank you, sir.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Thank you. Happy Wednesday. Thanks.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: All right, Seahawks Insider. Greg Bell, if you want to
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: follow him, do so at GBellSeattle. They're on X. And,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: of course, has his own show with Jessamyn McIntyre, 10
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: to noon. Every stinking day right here on Sports Radio
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: 93.3 KJRFM. Coming up next, Factor Fiction at 735. Anders
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Hurst pick for you here today. He's fist pumping over there.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Let's go. He must be really excited about this pick.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Need to bounce back.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: And it's a waiver wire Wednesday as well. And some
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: tight ends out there that people still seem resistant to
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: believe in. Sports Radio 93.3 KJRFM. oh, I figured out
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: how to fix the patient.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: And he says it in a sarcastic manner.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Yes. Yeah, she does that stuff too. So she's probably
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: said some really profound things to me while we've been
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: out to dinner or sitting around the house. And I
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: probably at one point was sitting there like, should I
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: take Damien Pierce or not? How long is Saquon going
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: to be out? I mean, she could have been telling
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: me the mathematical equation for time travel. And I'm sitting
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: over there like, And I could use some sure points
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: as Algier. I hate him, but is he worth a pickup? Yeah. Unfortunately,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: we ponder these things. This is true. Therefore, we present
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: to you Waiver Wire Wednesday.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: I'm sure you're not alone in that thought process there, Chuck.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Because I know I go through the same stuff.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Very sad.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: It is sad.
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Augustine is probably telling you some wonderful thing that you
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: could have learned from or grown from.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: From.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: And I'm thinking about who to add.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: And instead you're like, Oh man, is Jared Goff going
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: to be good on the road this week?
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: He can only do it in Detroit. It's not in
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: a dome. I'm like, do I start Bryce Young over him? Like,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: what are you doing here?
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Well, Waiver Wire Wednesday, it does become important because you've
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: got a little bit of injuries have built up at
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: this point of the season. And now we've got bye
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: week starting. And so you really are. I mean, I
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: did spend time trying to figure out. I have Saquon Barkley.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he's going to play this Sunday.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: They are down to like their fourth running back if
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Barkley can't go. So, I'm like, I don't want Damian
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Pierce anywhere near my locker room. And yet I'm going
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: to have to pick him up because if I get
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to Sunday and I don't have a running back, I'm
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: going to have to play somebody. So I picked him up.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: So maybe that's somebody that you've got to consider if
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: you've got Chase Brown or Jameer Gibbs or Aaron Jones
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: because they're all on by, plus Miami. If you have
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: a Miami player on your team, you're screwed anyway.
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry. Yeah.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: But you might have to think about things. I also,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: outside the box, Woody Marks has been in our league
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: on a roster since the draft, which I thought was smart.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Ashley has Woody Marks. But I guess a lot of
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: other leagues he's available, and they're already falling out of
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: favor with David Montgomery. So maybe that's somebody that you
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: pick up if he's there. After watching James Cook fumble twice,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think there's any harm or risk to his job, but.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: His coach said yesterday there are consequences to fumbling too much,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: even if it does get punched out by Landman twice.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: But Ray Davis, if you wanted to give yourself a handcuff,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: I think he's available in a lot of leagues. And
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Ashton Genting keeps playing every Sunday, but he keeps ending
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: up on the injury report every Thursday as well. And
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: so if you have him and you don't have Mike
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Washington Jr., or if you want to screw over your
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: buddy who has Genting, I mean, I think there's a
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: chance that he might even start Washington Jr. this week
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: over Jenty because apparently he came up out of that
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: last game even more banged up than he was before.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's a lot of backup kind of,
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: like you said, handcuff options out there.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But sometimes there's just a waste of a waiver wire.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah it's so hard to predict like okay are these
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: guys actually we're just desperate for anything that can get
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: five carries in a game you know what i mean
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: it's kind of what it feels like right.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Now yeah somebody that started rj harvey last week yeah
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: i'm desperate for five carries this week that's insane all
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: right and in our league anyway i'm i mean seeing
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of tight ends that are pretty good tight
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: ends yeah and maybe they're not starter worthy but brenton
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: strange is the real deal yes jacksonville Pat Friermuth has
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: turned into Aaron Rodgers' favorite target, and that's not going
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: to go away because Aaron Rodgers can't throw the ball
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: 15 yards down the field anymore, or at least doesn't
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: want to. So Friermuth, I figured those two are going
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: to make a nice connection, and it feels like they
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: have in the last couple of weeks. And I still
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: don't give up on A.J. Barner. having a good season,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: even though he has not had many targets so far
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: this year. And then quarterbacks, I mean, Jordan Love fell
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: out of favor with a lot of people, but he
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: is coming off a spectacular game, and he is facing
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: a bad defense this Sunday night. So you might want
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: to run and get Jordan Love to improve your quarterback depth,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: maybe even starts for you if you're a team that
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: has Burrow or Jared Goff.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: That is if you're not up at 2.25 a.m.
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: All right, coming up now, it's time to play some
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: Fact or Fiction. We're set to go. Glad you're with us.
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: It's your shot at our weekly $ 1, 000 and the $ 10, 000
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: grand prize.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: It's Fact or Fiction.
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: Proudly presented by Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel, where every
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: day feels lucky. Fact or Fiction is on. Sports Radio 93.3,
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: KJR FM.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: All right, your chance to win some cash. right here
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: on Sports Radio 93.3 KJRFM. It's our Fact or Fiction game.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: We play every day at 735, so go ahead and
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: set your alarm accordingly. It is Anders Hurst's pick. He's
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: not had a very good season, but none of us have. So, Anders,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: let's get it turned around. I don't care if Ian
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: turns his season around. I really don't, but I do
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: care if you do. So I root for you.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: So let's get it done.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I catch the strays on the text line with
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: my fact or fiction picks. So hopefully this turns around.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: I'm just going to say the pick first and my reasoning.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Colts minus six and a half at home versus the Titans.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: I do think the Colts are relatively desperate for a win.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: They're two and three. If they really want to stick
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: into the... picture in the AFC. They got to, you know,
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: climb themselves back into this. I think the Titans are
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: the worst team in football. Um, and they just can't
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: seem to score any points. I can't really seem to
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: stop anyone either. Um, The Colts will win this by
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: at least a touchdown. So Colts minus six and a
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: half at home versus the Tennessee Titans. Like I said,
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: desperate for a win, playing against the worst team in
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: the league, coming off a loss, and they're playing at home.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: A lot of these trends are kind of gearing me up.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: I don't think the Colts are that good. Don't get
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: me wrong, but they're significantly better than the Tennessee Titans.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Colts minus six and a half at home versus the
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Tennessee Titans.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: I think it seems reasonable. I think that seems logical.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: Chris is shaking his head. No, they all seem reasonable
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: and logical. And then you're like, what the hell? As
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: you watch the game. Because I'm guilty of that. Well,
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: it turns out, Chris, gambling is risky. Disclaimer. Gambling is risky.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: It's not a sure thing.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: You mean I can't just win money?
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: Nope.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Sometimes it comes up snake eyes. But I think you've
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: got good logic, good reasoning. I don't think the Colts
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: are as bad as what they've played so far this season.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: But I do think the Tennessee Titans are every bit
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: as bad as they've played this season. So, Anders is
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: going to go with the Indianapolis Colts at home. They
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: must win by seven points or more in order for
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: him to be right. So, it's time for you to
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: weigh in because you are the only thing that matters
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: in this equation. If you think that's the right pick,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: you're going to text FACT to 49451. If you think
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: it is the wrong pick, you're going to text FICTION
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: to 49451. If you're right, we enter your name into
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: a drawing for a $ 1, 000 weekly cash prize. And every
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: time we play, you can play, which means every time
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: you get one right, you get your name put into
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: the hopper. So, yeah, you want to keep playing and
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: weigh that drawing to your advantage. And so start now.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: If you haven't started yet this week, we're all ready
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: to hump day. And there's a $ 10, 000 jackpot awaiting the
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: person that gets the most Factor Fiction picks correct this season.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: And all of this is provided by our friends at
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel. Lucky Eagle Casino, burn noise!
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, my other strays that I was catching on the
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: text line was saying that eagles don't caw.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Tell me what sound they make then. I think they
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: might be right. I've watched plenty of David Attenborough. He
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: knows that eagles don't call.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: That's fair.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: They're a menacing creature, those eagles. All right, so fact
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: to 49451, fiction to 49451, whether you agree or disagree
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: with the selection, Anders is taking the Colts minus six
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: and a half at home against the lowly Tennessee Titans.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Your next chance to play comes at 1135 with Greg
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: Bell and Jessamyn McIntyre, and they're no better at this
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: than we are.
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: All right, coming up next, we get reckless at breakfast,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: and this is the most reckless that I've gotten in
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: a long time. Sports Radio 93.3, KJRFM. NFC West division
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: race is already over. The San Francisco 49ers have won,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: and the best the Seahawks can do is a wild card.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: I find that lazy. and I find it to be nonsense,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: and yet I do want to be fair about it. Therefore,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: if you want to weigh in on it, why do
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: you think that the NFC West is over? Your biggest
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: reason why, or why do you think that that's insane?
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Why are you on the other side of it, and
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: your biggest reason for why you think That's insane that
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: people have already crowned their ass in San Francisco. 49451
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: is the text line. You can also give us feedback
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: on our YouTube channel where we have the morning show now.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: And that talkback feature is just sitting there waiting for
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: you at 933KJR. com. Why don't you lay down a track,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: 30 seconds of analysis for us. Tell us why you
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: think the NFC West is over and San Francisco's won it.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: or why you think that that's lunacy. Again, our talkback
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: at 93.3 KJR.com, Mirror Mirror at the top of the hour.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Right now, we get a little reckless at breakfast, and
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I'm going to get really reckless here today. Are you aware, Anders,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: as you're a young person, you should be aware of
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: these things more so than I would be aware? I
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: wasn't really a compliment. It was more just an observation. Okay.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Have you heard of this Jean Phil?
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: No.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: What about Derek Mercer?
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: No.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: What about the Catman?
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: No.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Okay. Well, there are these AI-generated people who have turned
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: into celebrities. Jean Phil might be the most famous one
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: of them all. Just last week, he got 100 million
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: views on his website or whatever, on his TikTok account,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: whatever it is, 100 million, and the man doesn't exist.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: And most of the people that love him think he exists,
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: thinks he's a real person. He's not.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: He's AI.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: There's also a muscle bound guy by the name of
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: Derek Mercer, who women throughout the world have fallen in
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: love with. That is the perfect body. Oh, he's so beautiful.
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: Oh my.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: And they will get an arguments online with other people
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: who suggest that he's not real. They will get arguments
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: and then they will mock the other person for starting
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: such a stupid rumor because they're just jealous. Yeah. Um,
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: And they do videos and they sing and they dance
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: like Jean-Phil can dance his ass off. Yeah. It's just
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: he doesn't exist.
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: He's not real.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: It's someone else who's created this person. He looks like
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: a person and has given him all these skills and
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: singing ability and dancing ability. And he's turned into a
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: bona fide celebrity, even though he'll never actually walk a
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: red carpet anywhere. Yeah. Because he doesn't exist.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: It's the world we live in.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Well... That's going to be the point of Reckless at Breakfast.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Is this going to be the world that we live in?
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: Is this... something that is going to happen. Our movies,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: our actors just going to be AI generated act are
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: the best actors of the future. Not going to be
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Jack Nicholson and Robert De Niro. Cause you don't have
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: to wait for an AI artificially generated character to show
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: up for, to the set on time, right? And you
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: don't have to worry about having green M & Ms
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: in the guest room for him. And you don't have
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: to worry about paying him a 20 million, $ 40 million
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: per film salary, right? And if we are already adopting
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: these people as celebrities that we want to meet or
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: be like, even though there's no chance to ever meet them,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: when does it cross over into the sports world? Will
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: we someday have AI sports teams? Think about all of
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: the injury hand-wringing that we would save ourselves if we
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: had a A sports league in the future that was
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: just artificial. Not saying that we wouldn't have an NFL.
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: But what if there was a sports league in the
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: future that was completely AI generated and you didn't know
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: who was going to win? You didn't know who was
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: going to lose.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: So who does, though? Just the AI?
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Just the AI. You enter the attributes like you would
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: your video games at home, and you enter them into
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: the machine, whatever it is, and people will sit back
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: and watch it without knowing how the outcome's going to
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: turn out and might even gamble on it because, let's
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: face it, that's what's going to drive sports anyway. It's
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: what drives football anyway. And we have, you know... running
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: backs in the future that don't even exist. But the
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: AI generated superstar AI running back in the AI football
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: league is more popular than the Seahawks running back. Hey,
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: are we heading to that world? Is that where we're
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: going with all of this? I mean, they have already
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: overnight turned Jean Phil into a celebrity. He is a
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: bonafide celebrity who And the man does not exist. He
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: is a figment of our imagination, period. So I... Because
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: young people love, like, the Matrix movie.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: They like the idea of being able to just... In
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: a simulation.
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to sit in a chair. That's what
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do with my real body. And then
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: I'm going to simulate into this world that I would
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: prefer to be in. Yeah. And so are we going
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: to introduce that? Are young people going to be more
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: drawn to people that don't exist that have been generated
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: by computers?
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: Or.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: is the human being, celebrity, athlete, actor, singer, safe going forward?
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: See, the reason I think this has been successful, I
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: guess you could say, with the internet personalities, like Dejan Phil,
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: because that's basically what it is. He's an internet personality.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: It's because those personalities The real people internet personalities, they
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: thrive off of just scrolling anyways, right? Versus someone like
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: an athlete or a movie. There's at least some sort
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: of tangible aspect to them. You would go to a
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: movie or... You would go to a sporting event and
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: see them in person, right? So it's another step. I
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: see your thought process. But if we're going to talk
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: about the gambling aspect of all of these, wouldn't there
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: be even more controversy? Because there would be like.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, this was scripted.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Someone else made it so that they knew this AI
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: team would win and so that they bet a bunch
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: of money on them.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: Sure.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Not that there's not that now. But people think that now.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: I was going to say, yeah. You can't watch a
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Chiefs game without... 50 million people saying it's rigged.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: They're all 49ers fans, by the way. They lost one
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: twice in the Super Bowl. But yeah, I think that
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: you're not totally like, oh my God, don't go driving
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: right now because you're so reckless.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: I haven't smoked a single thing this morning. No, I
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: threw this out eight years ago to Jackson when I
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: worked with Jackson. That's nine years, 10 years ago now.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: Ten years ago when I worked with Jackson, I threw
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: this out. He goes, now you've gone too far. This
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: is way too reckless. Yes. And yet, in the last,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: look what's happening in front of me. How am I
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: not supposed to think that this is where we're heading
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: with everything when now we are creating celebrities? Now, there
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: is a little bit of Blair Witch Project going on
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: here where part of the reason why he is so
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: popular is because there are so many idiots out there
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: that think he's real. Does it change when the whole
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: world knows he's artificial? I don't know. I really don't
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: know that. But it is a step in the direction of, huh,
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: our celebrities, the people we want to be like or
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: be entertained by, don't even have to be real anymore.
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: Is it a step in that direction? And if we
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: keep taking steps in that direction, does it eventually infiltrate
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: our sports world? And as much as it seems like
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: heresy at this point, do not rule it out. Do
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: not rule it out. I think someday we could have
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: sports leagues that are completely AI generated, that people are
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: as entertained by as the real thing, except they don't
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: ever have to worry about injuries or losing that person
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: to free agency or holdouts or anything like that.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: You don't think they would simulate injuries?
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: Maybe. Maybe.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: This guy got injured.
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: Are you kidding me?
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: Maybe. That's when you really get angry. Yeah, exactly. He's
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: not real. How could he have gotten injured? What do
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: you mean he's injured? All right, Mirror Mirror is next
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: on KJR.
