Speaker 1: we got so much on our plate. Buckle up Brewers

Speaker 1: holstered up along with Packers ot Billy. We're gonna have
0:48
Speaker 1: to double caffein eight. Yeah, I was gonna say, Drew.
0:51
Speaker 3: I actually almost woke I woke up before the alarm today,
0:54
Speaker 3: and that's when you know you wake up with as
0:57
Speaker 3: coach Lafour said, sometimes you just gotta wake up with
0:59
Speaker 3: it hot. Oh yeah, and when you wake up with
1:01
Speaker 3: it hot, you know that double shot of espresso is
1:04
Speaker 3: not gonna be enough, but it is gonna be a
1:06
Speaker 3: good start and a kickstart, because we're gonna have to
1:09
Speaker 3: uh and we're gonna have to play maybe some kickstart
1:11
Speaker 3: my heart later on, later on tonight, because we're gonna
1:13
Speaker 3: have to fire this thing up throughout the day, throughout
1:15
Speaker 3: the night, because there's no nap day, there's no nap time.
1:17
Speaker 3: Even if your arm and sorry and you're trying to
1:19
Speaker 3: squeeze one in right before first pitch, No, I missed that.
1:24
Speaker 2: In that one.
1:24
Speaker 3: I don't I don't necessarily know that you're trying to squeeze.
1:26
Speaker 3: But I like, I like where your head's at. I
1:27
Speaker 3: like I like that your head. I like that your
1:29
Speaker 3: head's waking up in the gutter at five oh four.
1:32
Speaker 3: But we're gonna have to be ready to roll later
1:34
Speaker 3: on here tonight, because we're gonna get some starters for
1:37
Speaker 3: a couple of moments. Yeah, for a couple of brief moments.
1:40
Speaker 3: They may be fleeting Drew. These aren't the good old days,
1:43
Speaker 3: but it will do.
1:44
Speaker 4: It'll do start my starters right kickstart, my kickstarters, my heart.
1:49
Speaker 4: Maybe keep trying, keep trying. It might be, might not
1:54
Speaker 4: be a nap day, might be keep I have to
1:56
Speaker 4: get something, and I mean it's gonna be. It's almost
1:58
Speaker 4: a twenty four hour day. It's a twenty two hour
2:00
Speaker 4: day for us. It's gonna be nuts. Yeah, because we're beyond.
2:02
Speaker 4: We could potentially be on.
2:03
Speaker 1: The air until two am with Packers ot with an
2:06
Speaker 1: eight o'clock kickoff possible. But now yet Yeah, you know,
2:10
Speaker 1: sports works and cycles and I always talk about regression
2:13
Speaker 1: to the mean, and it's my favorite sports theory because
2:15
Speaker 1: it's true. But Week one preseason was just last Friday.
2:20
Speaker 1: It seems like a month ago already, doesn't It's been
2:22
Speaker 1: a while.
2:22
Speaker 2: Yep.
2:23
Speaker 1: It's like, what do we remember about the Packers and Steelers?
2:25
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, well it was. It seems like a
2:28
Speaker 1: long time. We've pretty much done a physical memory dump
2:30
Speaker 1: of what we saw in that game.
2:32
Speaker 2: Somehow remember just enough of.
2:36
Speaker 1: Like I just didn't play and okay, Mason runup anyway,
2:40
Speaker 1: what uh what what we saw in that game? Twenty penalties,
2:45
Speaker 1: like five reviews, it was a slog. Maybe this one will.
2:50
Speaker 2: Be more crisp at altitude.
2:52
Speaker 3: What you can only hope drew and you can only
2:54
Speaker 3: hope that it can't that it's not as bad as
2:56
Speaker 3: the last time they went and played a preseason game
2:58
Speaker 3: in Denver, and uh, you know, we we did an
3:00
Speaker 3: elongated postgame show last week. We did a very long
3:04
Speaker 3: postgame if I remember correctly, of the twenty seven to
3:08
Speaker 3: two decision that happened in Denver a few years ago.
3:12
Speaker 3: I think it was twenty four maybe like the second
3:14
Speaker 3: preseason game they played, no starters played. It was after
3:17
Speaker 3: they ran the joint practice. They were there for a week.
3:20
Speaker 3: It felt like it was actually like a long three
3:23
Speaker 3: and a half days. We'll talk about it with the
3:24
Speaker 3: voice of the Packers, Wayne Lairviye when he stops by
3:26
Speaker 3: from the mile get High City in the seven o'clock hour.
3:28
Speaker 3: But it was a long slog of a week and
3:34
Speaker 3: the game ended up even being worse. So like that
3:36
Speaker 3: that part, it can't be as bad as that one.
3:39
Speaker 3: But I don't want to attempt the sports gods because
3:42
Speaker 3: it is preseason football. It is closer to UFL than NFL.
3:46
Speaker 3: And this one is once we get Bonix in and out,
3:50
Speaker 3: Jordan Love in and out, gonna be a good test
3:52
Speaker 3: of your depth that did not show all.
3:54
Speaker 2: That creat in the fourth quarter in Pittsburgh. Yeah, a
3:57
Speaker 2: good test.
3:58
Speaker 4: You're remembering that as a good test of your debt
4:00
Speaker 4: because I was impressed. You remember what happened in the
4:02
Speaker 4: preseason a couple years. But you're right, that was the
4:04
Speaker 4: bone Knicks like joined Practice the bow show, where all
4:07
Speaker 4: these reporters were breathlessly talking about how great he was
4:10
Speaker 4: in that one and how he was I think Diana
4:12
Speaker 4: was one of them actually too.
4:14
Speaker 3: He wasn't for sure the starter at that point. Yeah, no,
4:17
Speaker 3: definitely not. He was a rookie, right I think so.
4:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, So obviously, uh yeah, that was one I and
4:22
Speaker 4: obvious last year's opener wasn't good. So it just goes
4:24
Speaker 4: to show you don't know what's gonna happen too much
4:27
Speaker 4: based on the preseason results. But hey, maybe tonight'll be
4:30
Speaker 4: a good one. Looking for our first win. Still, so
4:32
Speaker 4: let's go get it tonight, maybe go get it. Yeah, yeah,
4:35
Speaker 4: let's go get it. And if not, honestly, it just
4:40
Speaker 4: really doesn't matter. Just where was then Denver didn't.
4:43
Speaker 2: Matter to you.
4:43
Speaker 1: Whereas the local baseball club got a victory yesterday during
4:47
Speaker 1: six run first inning they score and runs and bunches
4:50
Speaker 1: these days. And then a key insurance blast from uh
4:53
Speaker 1: mister Garrett Mitchell, who had himself a big day. Who's
4:56
Speaker 1: our number one? Garrett Mitchell fan on the talking text
4:58
Speaker 1: line our boy on on the YouTube.
5:01
Speaker 2: Comments face Dobbler, we'd respect you more.
5:04
Speaker 1: Come on now, two doubles, a dinger and an expecting child.
5:08
Speaker 3: And child, hey you get some dad strength. It works
5:10
Speaker 3: out very well. Now Mitchell won the day yesterday. Were
5:12
Speaker 3: they waiting for the announcement for Garrett to bust out
5:16
Speaker 3: of the slump that he was in or was it
5:18
Speaker 3: just a hey, you know what we're gonna tell everybody
5:20
Speaker 3: later today, So just relaxed a little bit.
5:22
Speaker 1: Well, he would have thought he would have done it,
5:25
Speaker 1: you know, empty the empty the chamber on after a
5:28
Speaker 1: twenty two nothing game when he got three hits, right true.
5:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, And he's like, all right now I'm fully out
5:32
Speaker 3: of slump.
5:34
Speaker 2: Now you can let it run. But I thought about that.
5:37
Speaker 4: It's like, well, we can announce this anytime within these
5:39
Speaker 4: next like three weeks.
5:40
Speaker 2: Let's wait till you have a good day, Garrett.
5:42
Speaker 1: And then you know, yeah, and so he's you know,
5:45
Speaker 1: he's got that going for him, which is nice.
5:48
Speaker 3: That would also be a lot more thinking into it
5:49
Speaker 3: when in all reality somebody that has now had one
5:52
Speaker 3: announcement of a baby and then one that we forgot
5:54
Speaker 3: to put out about the second baby, because that's kind
5:57
Speaker 3: of what happens. I guess with the second kid, they
5:58
Speaker 3: just kind of they happened, and then they're live their
6:00
Speaker 3: life rolls on as everything else is happening. He probably
6:03
Speaker 3: had zero say yeah, zero ideas, zero say oh sweet,
6:06
Speaker 3: we are letting everybody know, all right cool. I just
6:08
Speaker 3: got eight hundred Instagram messages while I was out playing,
6:12
Speaker 3: so I guess I can say it to the guys
6:13
Speaker 3: that are talking that we're talking to you here.
6:15
Speaker 2: Might as well the letter rip.
6:17
Speaker 3: Thanks, thanks, thanks, babe, appreciate you letting me let the
6:20
Speaker 3: cat out of the bag. But it's also nice when
6:22
Speaker 3: the short stroke that he puts in backspins that one out.
6:26
Speaker 3: Julio Rodriguez just kept drifting back, drifting back. I thought
6:28
Speaker 3: he was going to do a PCA drew and try
6:30
Speaker 3: robbing that thing when it was gonna hit off the
6:31
Speaker 3: batter's eye, because that thing just kept spinning and carrying
6:35
Speaker 3: right out.
6:35
Speaker 2: Of that place.
6:36
Speaker 4: Looked like he had a beat on it off the
6:37
Speaker 4: bed right, or at least the way he was drifting back.
6:40
Speaker 4: But you're right, Billy, it's all about that backspin, and
6:42
Speaker 4: he had it that was pretty good.
6:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, reach us, Reach us today, please early and often,
6:48
Speaker 1: because it's going to be a long day.
6:49
Speaker 2: Eight seven seven seven nine seven three.
6:51
Speaker 1: One thing that could make this day shorter is a
6:53
Speaker 1: lot of audience participation between five and eight.
6:56
Speaker 2: Yeah.
6:56
Speaker 3: And this is the regression of the mean that you
6:58
Speaker 3: talk about as well. Like, the aggression to the mean
7:01
Speaker 3: for us is working significantly the longer hours, right, Like,
7:04
Speaker 3: because in the midst of now, the offseason, we have
7:07
Speaker 3: gone through days where it's in and out, turn and burn,
7:09
Speaker 3: and people like, what do you what do you guys
7:11
Speaker 3: do after eight o'clock?
7:13
Speaker 2: What do you guys do after eight o'clock?
7:14
Speaker 3: We get ready for football season, and this is when
7:16
Speaker 3: we get to shine throughout the day.
7:19
Speaker 2: I know that it is a long day.
7:20
Speaker 3: I know that it's gonna be tough, but this is
7:22
Speaker 3: when champions are made. So let's let's put on a
7:25
Speaker 3: little smile. Let's fire it on up here for a game.
7:27
Speaker 2: Dad. I feel like our dobbers are down a little
7:30
Speaker 2: bit here in the morning. No, it's okay, it's it's
7:32
Speaker 2: one of those things, Billy.
7:33
Speaker 4: You got to get the train pushed and started, all right,
7:36
Speaker 4: and today it's the Gareth Mitchell hype train.
7:38
Speaker 2: But it's a long one.
7:40
Speaker 4: It's the momentum, right, it's a slow start, slow start,
7:42
Speaker 4: but once you get that thing pushing, and that's just
7:44
Speaker 4: like us today, we're gonna be rolling and rolling fast today.
7:47
Speaker 4: So I believe in our ability. Maybe our douber will
7:49
Speaker 4: be up. We just gotta get a going a little
7:51
Speaker 4: bit here. But you know, as the minutes tick away,
7:53
Speaker 4: in the hours tick away, it'll be going well today.
7:56
Speaker 4: So I have a good confidence in that. Especially if
7:59
Speaker 4: the brewis roll up and Miz rolls up and dominates sale,
8:02
Speaker 4: that would be pretty nice, you know, if that would
8:04
Speaker 4: be a good way to get that.
8:05
Speaker 3: Would be nice. That would be nice if you beat
8:06
Speaker 3: a future Hall of Famer. So let's see what happens there.
8:10
Speaker 4: But a lot of our a lot of our listeners,
8:12
Speaker 4: a lot of the five o'clock clubers in early to
8:14
Speaker 4: get get us going a little bit pink and bingo,
8:16
Speaker 4: Good morning, guys, sounds like a nap kind of day. Well,
8:20
Speaker 4: maybe I don't know.
8:20
Speaker 2: For some I mean, you know, it's great.
8:22
Speaker 1: To be for me to nap by the pool, but
8:23
Speaker 1: I heard it's going to rain. Yeah, that's that's kind
8:26
Speaker 1: of a movement that might suck real wild troop, looks
8:29
Speaker 1: like we have a new five o'clock cluber here. This
8:30
Speaker 1: is usually not not my time of day to be alive.
8:33
Speaker 2: Baby.
8:33
Speaker 4: Is it too late to join the five o'clock club?
8:35
Speaker 4: Hell no, it's not too year early. That's the whole idea.
8:38
Speaker 2: You're in the five o'clock club, and we get you
8:40
Speaker 2: a number here.
8:41
Speaker 1: By the way, we should be doing robust business today
8:44
Speaker 1: because man, the crowd at the why was epic today.
8:47
Speaker 2: It's like a nightclub.
8:48
Speaker 3: Well, listen, it's Friday. You want to make sure that
8:50
Speaker 3: you get it in and let it run, get the pump.
8:52
Speaker 3: And also it's the end of summer. So it's kind
8:55
Speaker 3: of that that question, that realization of dang, I probably
9:00
Speaker 3: missed out on my summer body. It's right, i missed
9:02
Speaker 3: out on the best summer body of my life. But
9:04
Speaker 3: now I'm gonna kickstart it for next year because I'm
9:06
Speaker 3: just gonna not fall into you. Definitely will eating a
9:09
Speaker 3: bunch of Christmas cookies and be eating anything in your
9:12
Speaker 3: sight from November to January, so you might as well
9:15
Speaker 3: give yourself a good base and a runway.
9:17
Speaker 2: I love that, Billy.
9:18
Speaker 1: This is this is the danger zone, you know, because
9:20
Speaker 1: you're just loading up, starting with the State Fair foods
9:22
Speaker 1: and trying to squeeze in and trying to choke down
9:25
Speaker 1: all the brats and burgers and stuff that you can,
9:28
Speaker 1: all the cookout foods, all the bad foods are rolling through.
9:31
Speaker 3: As I walked by sas Is at Zuala Kart yesterday. Yes,
9:33
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get chicken tenders and a sass platter like
9:35
Speaker 3: there's no way that I'm going to miss out on
9:38
Speaker 3: potentially the last sas Is sampler platter of the year
9:40
Speaker 3: on and by the way, I make crab rangoons at home.
9:44
Speaker 3: I think I can deep fry I find something like that. Yeah,
9:46
Speaker 3: why not, let's figure that out.
9:48
Speaker 1: The man himself, the Duke of Szama, Steve Sasama, just
9:52
Speaker 1: had a birthday, birthday, celebrate birthday. He's the man some legends,
10:01
Speaker 1: legend and a longtime friend of the show.
10:04
Speaker 2: Is outstanding all right.
10:05
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven, seven nine four Three brewers with an
10:07
Speaker 1: uplifting victory yesterday, setting the stage for a big weekend
10:11
Speaker 1: series against the Braves, who played yesterday in Chicago in
10:14
Speaker 1: a makeup game and then rolled on up. Meanwhile, now
10:18
Speaker 1: that the Mariners are out of town and that the
10:20
Speaker 1: Brewers took two or three for their seventh straight home
10:23
Speaker 1: series win, that works out. Uh, you gotta start cheering
10:27
Speaker 1: for the Mariners double barrel because they're hosting the Cubs
10:30
Speaker 1: this weekend.
10:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they also they've decided that they need a boost,
10:34
Speaker 3: they need something exciting, they need somebody to freshen things up,
10:38
Speaker 3: and they're calling up top pitching prospect in baseball, Cad Anderson,
10:41
Speaker 3: the left He's gonna start against the Cubs coming up.
10:44
Speaker 3: Hope He's like that is, let's hope he shoves. I
10:46
Speaker 3: love it and also shout out Seattle. Great decision to
10:50
Speaker 3: pick this weekend for his open start instead of you know,
10:54
Speaker 3: this past Saturday or Wednesday would not have been a
10:57
Speaker 3: good idea.
10:57
Speaker 2: Get that Poppers. Brewis put it on a pretty good pitcher.
11:00
Speaker 1: Kirby yesterday had pretty good stuff, and first put it
11:03
Speaker 1: on him with a touchdown in the first inning.
11:05
Speaker 3: He was one of the names that really started surfacing
11:07
Speaker 3: around the deadline Seattle didn't do much and the photo's
11:10
Speaker 3: been one of the guys that always takes big swings.
11:12
Speaker 3: They didn't really do a by or sell this year.
11:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're just kind of floating around, and I mean, well,
11:18
Speaker 1: look at they're reeling. People think that, you know, they're
11:21
Speaker 1: upset about Yellowch's drop off, the big dumpa big dumplam,
11:26
Speaker 1: sixty homers an MVP conversation, losing to Judge, but then
11:30
Speaker 1: now he's just so on a milk carton and this lost.
11:33
Speaker 2: Yeah.
11:33
Speaker 3: And I was listening to Baseball's favorite psychologist, Joe Madden
11:39
Speaker 3: with the Foul Territory Guys yesterday and they were talking
11:42
Speaker 3: about Kyle Tucker and then they mentioned cal Rally and
11:46
Speaker 3: they started rolling through a number of these big time names.
11:48
Speaker 3: Mookie Betts for the longest time, was in like the
11:51
Speaker 3: midst of one of the worst seasons of his career.
11:53
Speaker 2: Well and he had the illness.
11:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you really start realizing that it is not
11:58
Speaker 3: just the plus thirty club of Yelich, that that's in
12:01
Speaker 3: the swoon of a twenty twenty five season or twenty
12:04
Speaker 3: twenty six season. There's a ton of big name, high
12:07
Speaker 3: profile players for some of these top teams, especially the
12:10
Speaker 3: best teams in the league, that are still having guys
12:13
Speaker 3: have completely off years.
12:15
Speaker 2: And you mentioned Judge.
12:17
Speaker 3: The Yankees have done this for the last four months
12:19
Speaker 3: without Judge them And there's no sign of him coming back, Like,
12:22
Speaker 3: it doesn't sound like there's any real englanding that he's.
12:25
Speaker 2: For sure coming back by the playoff time.
12:27
Speaker 4: There's a lot of guys, I mean, for a while
12:28
Speaker 4: it was Tatiz he's turned around, but mentioned Guerrero Bashett, Like,
12:32
Speaker 4: there are guys that so many players that you expect
12:35
Speaker 4: to be good.
12:36
Speaker 2: It just shows you that.
12:37
Speaker 4: Results aren't promised and it's harder and hardest to sustain
12:40
Speaker 4: that level of play.
12:41
Speaker 2: It seems like maybe these days, maybe.
12:43
Speaker 4: It's just you know, you know, the recency buys, but
12:46
Speaker 4: it seems like it's harder these days for a lot
12:48
Speaker 4: of great players is to stay in that level of play. So,
12:50
Speaker 4: if anything, Yelich has been somewhat better at it over
12:53
Speaker 4: the course of the years. Now he's dropped out this year,
12:55
Speaker 4: But look at a guy like.
12:56
Speaker 2: Cal Raley, Yeah, you're right with the Mariners.
12:58
Speaker 4: I mean, it's not often one guy could make a
13:00
Speaker 4: whole difference on your team. But that's one guy that's caught.
13:03
Speaker 4: You know, if they got what they expected on him
13:04
Speaker 4: this year, that's seven wins. I mean his I think
13:07
Speaker 4: his war is still negative, but it was like a
13:08
Speaker 4: seven war. That's seven wins. That totally changes the trajectory
13:11
Speaker 4: of your team. They'd be a playoff team. So it's
13:14
Speaker 4: pretty crazy, but interested in, excited and angious to see
13:17
Speaker 4: this Kate Anderson odobt.
13:18
Speaker 2: Hopefully he just dominates that first game.
13:20
Speaker 4: He had a one O six e RA in Double A,
13:24
Speaker 4: and he's the best pitching prospect in baseball, and he
13:27
Speaker 4: was the top story on the old ESPN dot com
13:30
Speaker 4: MLB page, So you know it's a big deal when
13:32
Speaker 4: he's coming up and he's the top story. So let's
13:35
Speaker 4: love to see him work and get crazy and get
13:37
Speaker 4: nuts and dominate that lineup, which is not a good
13:40
Speaker 4: easy lineup.
13:40
Speaker 2: Tom and let's get nuts.
13:41
Speaker 3: We get a little West Coast action to pay attention
13:43
Speaker 3: to while we're in the midst of packers ot tonight,
13:46
Speaker 3: because Cubs and Mariners will start up at about nine
13:48
Speaker 3: to ten out there in the cappuccino capital of the world.
13:52
Speaker 1: That's the key, Billy, You got it, that's the key
13:54
Speaker 1: Rights enter the weekend again, big series against the Braves,
13:57
Speaker 1: measuring stick series against another solid nationally contender, and they
14:01
Speaker 1: answer with a five game lead in the division.
14:04
Speaker 2: Impressive stuff.
14:05
Speaker 3: A five game lead for the Brewers in the division,
14:07
Speaker 3: five game lead for the Braves in their division feels
14:10
Speaker 3: like the Brewers one is closer. And you look at
14:12
Speaker 3: the numbers and you understand why. I think the Phillies
14:15
Speaker 3: have like a plus fifteen run differential. The Cubs are
14:19
Speaker 3: a plus one hundred, and their records are not that
14:23
Speaker 3: that's dissimilar, but just the way one team is played,
14:26
Speaker 3: and you know, the lineup for Philadelphia is good, but
14:30
Speaker 3: the Cubs have just been playing at such a ridiculous pace.
14:32
Speaker 2: Try to hold them off.
14:33
Speaker 3: I do like that it can be a measuring stick, Drew,
14:35
Speaker 3: because whether consciously or subconsciously, fans.
14:38
Speaker 2: Are gonna do it. And I don't know that players
14:41
Speaker 2: do at all.
14:42
Speaker 3: But you know that when you're gonna get miss and
14:45
Speaker 3: Henderson on the mound, there's gonna be thirty eight to
14:48
Speaker 3: forty two thousand plus in that place all weekend long.
14:51
Speaker 3: It's gonna be hard not to think that. Think of
14:53
Speaker 3: it as a huge series with two big time games, no.
14:56
Speaker 1: Question, by the way, courtesy of that twenty two nothing
15:00
Speaker 1: romp that we referenced earlier, for his lead the majors
15:03
Speaker 1: in run differential plus one fifty.
15:06
Speaker 2: Whereas the Dodgers are plus one forty five.
15:09
Speaker 4: Eat your heart out, LA, I like being able to
15:12
Speaker 4: beat them in that one.
15:13
Speaker 1: Well, and we're going to talk about that because the
15:16
Speaker 1: news that's coming out about the Dodgers' ownership and the
15:21
Speaker 1: financial dealings they're in and the now it's all related
15:24
Speaker 1: the sale of the Lakers, and this Mark Walter guy
15:28
Speaker 1: is in it. The bills are coming due, the lights
15:32
Speaker 1: are coming on, and the roaches are scurried.
15:36
Speaker 3: And you don't know how much of the twenty seven
15:38
Speaker 3: percent controlling stake that he has and the Dodgers, how
15:42
Speaker 3: quickly that can get liquefied, and then how quickly all
15:45
Speaker 3: that money ends up coming due on these deferred payments.
15:48
Speaker 3: That makes it maybe less of an appreciation exciting asset
15:51
Speaker 3: to go.
15:51
Speaker 1: And purchase that was show Hey, I'd be a little
15:54
Speaker 1: nervous because they owe me a lot of money in
15:56
Speaker 1: the twenty forties and if they if this thing, they
15:59
Speaker 1: look for a way for them to go bankrupt and say, oh, sorry,
16:01
Speaker 1: you're just another creditor that we're not.
16:03
Speaker 2: Going to be able to pay.
16:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, I apologize, we're not going to be These things
16:06
Speaker 1: are supposed to be pre paid and pre funded when
16:10
Speaker 1: you're when you do deferred money. But when you're kiting
16:12
Speaker 1: money around the way that the Dodgers apparently have been,
16:16
Speaker 1: we'll get into that. I am not a financial expert.
16:18
Speaker 1: I can barely handle my own finances, not even good.
16:21
Speaker 2: But I've said this for years.
16:24
Speaker 1: People would ask me about you know, ah, these owners
16:26
Speaker 1: say they're not making any money. It's like, well, there's
16:29
Speaker 1: some book cooking going on, there's some Hollywood accounting and
16:31
Speaker 1: no no pun intended with the Dodgers, but I was like,
16:34
Speaker 1: imagine that you you started, you made your fortune with
16:38
Speaker 1: a dry cleaning company. You have dry cleaning outlets all
16:41
Speaker 1: over the country, and then you buy a franchise, and
16:44
Speaker 1: then we got to launder our uniforms. So we we
16:48
Speaker 1: launder our uniforms and our cash through our dry cleaning business,
16:51
Speaker 1: and we charge ourselves exorbitant fees and we have a
16:55
Speaker 1: huge expense and we're not making any money over here,
16:57
Speaker 1: no money, but we're making a huge record income over
16:59
Speaker 1: at the righte cleaning side. That's the kind of stuff
17:02
Speaker 1: that they've been doing. And there's a shell game that's
17:03
Speaker 1: been going on forever, and that's basically the story of
17:06
Speaker 1: our whole financial system. We're pinned by just insider dealing
17:10
Speaker 1: and grift and a lot.
17:12
Speaker 3: Of your money being spent around everybody getting increase.
17:16
Speaker 2: And yeah, so the Dodgers having.
17:18
Speaker 1: Insurance policies, all these loans bankrolled by insurance companies owned
17:23
Speaker 1: by the ownership groups. So it's what they call a
17:25
Speaker 1: closed loop of you know there where everybody else. And
17:29
Speaker 1: then they're they were using it to hide hide revenue
17:31
Speaker 1: from their TV operation, because their whole TV operation.
17:34
Speaker 3: They own has become a real sweetheart deal forgot.
17:40
Speaker 2: So it's the perfect storm.
17:41
Speaker 1: So everybody who said, including Dave Roberts, well, anybody can
17:45
Speaker 1: operate that way, we do. No, not anybody can, and
17:48
Speaker 1: it might not be ethical or legal.
17:50
Speaker 2: No, that's okay.
17:51
Speaker 4: I'm waiting for all those uh those arrogant, punk, winy,
17:54
Speaker 4: snobbass Dodger fans to say, oh, anyone could have done this, Well, sure,
17:57
Speaker 4: anyone could pay it.
17:59
Speaker 2: If you're running a pods, anyone want to do it?
18:01
Speaker 1: Arman passive less aggressively firing shots at his cousins from
18:05
Speaker 1: the battle right.
18:08
Speaker 2: The tape and send it out on the group chat.
18:10
Speaker 2: Anyone could have Anyone could have made this signing. Anyone
18:12
Speaker 2: these owners could do it. It is too cheap. No, they're
18:14
Speaker 2: just out a federal investigation their effective.
18:16
Speaker 1: Payroll with the schools from eighty one million dollars or
18:21
Speaker 1: something like that.
18:21
Speaker 3: And and you know whatever the deal is for for Otani,
18:24
Speaker 3: because I do. I thought about it instantly as I
18:27
Speaker 3: listened to Uh, I'm gonna forget her her name on
18:29
Speaker 3: the breakdown of it from from the Athletic Uh, when
18:32
Speaker 3: you're putting one of your creditors is Dodger tickets, Probably
18:36
Speaker 3: not hiding it very well. Yeah, probably not hiding it
18:39
Speaker 3: very well. But if you're Otani and whatever the present
18:43
Speaker 3: day value my seven hundred million dollars actually was like
18:45
Speaker 3: middle fours whatever, I guess it's only fourner and sixty
18:48
Speaker 3: three million present day value. Could he opt out if
18:52
Speaker 3: they sell it and make more good question? I mean like,
18:55
Speaker 3: at this exact moment, have you missed out on the
18:57
Speaker 3: full window of show, Heyotani? Or if he opted out,
19:01
Speaker 3: could he sign another five year deal that would be
19:04
Speaker 3: worth I don't know, four.
19:06
Speaker 2: Hundred million or what would it be worth right now?
19:08
Speaker 2: For one year? And could he do that?
19:10
Speaker 4: Like the ol O Lebron thing, Like, think about it,
19:12
Speaker 4: if there was an open market for one year on show, Hey,
19:15
Speaker 4: what would it be worth?
19:16
Speaker 2: People would pay?
19:17
Speaker 4: There'd be some crazy numbers if teams knew they could
19:19
Speaker 4: get him for just one year and then he could
19:21
Speaker 4: do that year.
19:21
Speaker 2: It means a risk.
19:22
Speaker 3: You're getting Kyle Tucker for sixty million a year. Hey, come,
19:25
Speaker 3: I'll find a way to find a way to dig
19:28
Speaker 3: it up in the speat cushions if I'm one of
19:29
Speaker 3: one of these owners. If I can get show, eh.
19:31
Speaker 1: Cow all right, that's you know, we can talk about
19:34
Speaker 1: this at length with kick it around. It's it's It's
19:36
Speaker 1: one of those things, man, that's as the storm cloud
19:39
Speaker 1: of a potential lockout looms on the horizon, you get
19:42
Speaker 1: this story and then it's gonna be like, well, come on,

20:34
Speaker 3: Rodriguez going back, he's at the wall, sits gone.
20:40
Speaker 2: Garrett Mitchell back spendings. One off the batter's eye.
20:44
Speaker 3: That could have been the backbreaker right there, boy, Garrett Mitchell, lefty,
20:48
Speaker 3: where's his lefty?
20:49
Speaker 4: Box? Went out of here?
20:51
Speaker 2: Boy, The Brewers needed that in a big way now.
20:53
Speaker 2: At three run lead.
21:00
Speaker 1: From yesterday American Family Field, the first of three straight
21:03
Speaker 1: day games at home for the Bruce.
21:04
Speaker 2: Don't know that they've done that in a while. Yeah,
21:07
Speaker 2: no kidding.
21:08
Speaker 1: Three ten start today, one yesterday, and then another one
21:11
Speaker 1: ten start Saturday, which is rare but necessitated because it's
21:14
Speaker 1: a getaway game Saturday. Both teams are flying out to
21:17
Speaker 1: get to Williamsport to play Sunday night at the Little
21:19
Speaker 1: League World Series site.
21:21
Speaker 3: And I don't know for sure the three o'clock start today,
21:24
Speaker 3: but I like it Like they do the one three
21:26
Speaker 3: o'clocker for the alumni game. I kind of just like
21:29
Speaker 3: having one on a Friday, kickstart the afternoon and roll
21:33
Speaker 3: in to then open people up to I don't know,
21:36
Speaker 3: you know, Arming gets into this all the time when
21:40
Speaker 3: we talk about, you know, games on holidays.
21:41
Speaker 2: That apparently want to see your family.
21:43
Speaker 3: Apparently we all want to talk to people and talk
21:45
Speaker 3: to relatives and things like that. Then, you know what
21:47
Speaker 3: a good Friday night in Milwaukee and the cross state
21:50
Speaker 3: of Wisconsin, right at the tail end of summer, they
21:53
Speaker 3: free it up for you to go and have a
21:54
Speaker 3: bonfire or something, go and just enjoy some camaraderie in
21:57
Speaker 3: the neighborhood on a Friday night.
21:59
Speaker 2: That's a beautiful thing.
22:00
Speaker 1: When I was a beat hack, the three o'clock starts
22:03
Speaker 1: weren't our favorite because you're still there at like noon
22:06
Speaker 1: and and you're there until eight, So it's like it
22:09
Speaker 1: chews up the entire day and then you get out
22:11
Speaker 1: and like you finish work at eight ish, and then
22:14
Speaker 1: you're well, yeah, and then you get your the rest
22:16
Speaker 1: of your night free. But it's still like that's kind
22:19
Speaker 1: of not as good as the one o'clock whereas you're
22:21
Speaker 1: in and out.
22:22
Speaker 2: And you're then it's then you just say, a couple
22:26
Speaker 2: hours makes a big difference.
22:27
Speaker 1: You get out and you're done working at six, like, oh,
22:29
Speaker 1: then I can go to a early dinner. Sure, I
22:32
Speaker 1: can make more plans and attend something. But if you
22:35
Speaker 1: get off at eight, yeah, your options are more limited.
22:39
Speaker 2: As for entertainment, it's like the.
22:40
Speaker 3: U when when the Brewers or a team will have
22:43
Speaker 3: the in between travel day and it will be like, well,
22:47
Speaker 3: you're gonna leave and we're gonna play on Tuesday. We
22:50
Speaker 3: wrap up the game at four o'clock on Sunday, somebody
22:53
Speaker 3: are like, well, go sleep in your own bed and
22:55
Speaker 3: then fly out on Monday morning and then you know you're.
22:57
Speaker 2: Just into the next city there. Well, it's not really
22:59
Speaker 2: a day off.
23:01
Speaker 3: And when you get twenty days off for six months,
23:04
Speaker 3: not really a day off. You hop on a plane
23:06
Speaker 3: and fly for three hours.
23:07
Speaker 2: You still commit to the day.
23:08
Speaker 4: So that's a little awkwardness there, But I guess the
23:11
Speaker 4: best way to do it is to do like Peach
23:13
Speaker 4: Hanger on YouTube and just go to the game.
23:16
Speaker 2: Fellows Early hooked for the Gas last night.
23:19
Speaker 4: I liked that we're calling him the gas, but crew
23:21
Speaker 4: gets another series uff going to the game today, Sales vers.
23:24
Speaker 2: I just make a day of it.
23:25
Speaker 1: But by the way, uh, that was interesting. Second time
23:28
Speaker 1: this year Murphy is sending a message, hooking a guy
23:30
Speaker 1: in the middle.
23:31
Speaker 2: Of the count two count. Yeah, send the message. My
23:34
Speaker 2: wife's asked me.
23:35
Speaker 1: That's like a little reliever in the are pulling an outfielder.
23:38
Speaker 1: We talked about Andrew Jones yesterday because the Brewis have
23:40
Speaker 1: all these young guys. When he was like nineteen, he
23:42
Speaker 1: loafed after a fly ball and I don't know if
23:45
Speaker 1: a Maddix one of the stars was pitching, obviously, because
23:47
Speaker 1: it was the Braves in their heyday, and Bobby Cox
23:50
Speaker 1: just hooked him in the middle of an inning. Send
23:51
Speaker 1: a guy out of here. He had to jog in.
23:54
Speaker 2: That's rare.
23:55
Speaker 1: That's that's rare, and it was and the guy ended
23:57
Speaker 1: up being a Hall of Famer. But that was you
23:59
Speaker 1: know that took some juevos and it's like you're coming
24:02
Speaker 1: off right now, we're sending the guy had to jog
24:04
Speaker 1: out with his glove and get.
24:06
Speaker 3: A couple of warm up sauces and let it ride. Well,
24:08
Speaker 3: I would have love to see Bobby just on the
24:10
Speaker 3: top of the dug out there as you waddle on
24:12
Speaker 3: up here, come on.
24:12
Speaker 1: Get it go, get your center fielder in the middle
24:14
Speaker 1: of an inning. Well, that means the ultimate, the ultimate embarrassing.
24:17
Speaker 4: When Billie Martin did to Reggie Jackson, that started what
24:20
Speaker 4: one of the biggest fights. Oh yeah, like the most
24:22
Speaker 4: famous dugout fights ever, this side of Manny Parr and
24:25
Speaker 4: Prince Fielder. That's right, there's actually video of this one,
24:27
Speaker 4: so I guess, yeah, that is the ultimate disrespect for
24:30
Speaker 4: a player to be pulled.
24:30
Speaker 1: But yeah, but to get pulled in a two o
24:32
Speaker 1: count well after a pass ball, and the pass ball was
24:35
Speaker 1: clearly a pass ball.
24:36
Speaker 2: Sanchez just missed it. But spot for Chad though.
24:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, And and the Brewers again they overcame themselves, like
24:43
Speaker 1: give a guy a six nothing lead, and that's where
24:44
Speaker 1: you're you're young guys, you know you think with six
24:47
Speaker 1: nothing lead it's automatic, just pump strikes.
24:49
Speaker 3: Well, it's not that easy, no, And especially when you're
24:52
Speaker 3: you've been in as many high leverage situations as he has,
24:55
Speaker 3: you just you can't keep walking the yard. And I
24:58
Speaker 3: do love the fact that he's just like, I'm just
25:00
Speaker 3: going to see this anymore. We're gonna we're not gonna
25:02
Speaker 3: deal with this anymore. Let me see somebody else. And Robert,
25:07
Speaker 3: we're gonna switch up to the sixth out of the
25:09
Speaker 3: six man rotation. And you just made yourself a hell
25:11
Speaker 3: of a bit to go find yourself in the bullpen
25:13
Speaker 3: with one of those.
25:13
Speaker 2: Go pitch in the pen. All right.
25:15
Speaker 1: So we got a bunch of Brewers' assets today, audio assets.
25:19
Speaker 1: Should we spin through Hunter's recap first?
25:21
Speaker 5: Yeah?
25:21
Speaker 2: I like that. Let's do that.
25:22
Speaker 1: Let's take it away our Brews recasts, brought to us
25:25
Speaker 1: by import Minded.
25:26
Speaker 2: Let's turn it over to the great Hunter Bombguard.
25:30
Speaker 6: Thanks guys. The Brewers take another series at home. They
25:32
Speaker 6: have not lost a series in Milwaukee since late June.
25:35
Speaker 6: They beat the Mariners yesterday seven to four, six runs
25:38
Speaker 6: in the first inning. Garrett Mitchell right in the middle
25:40
Speaker 6: of it, didn't know if he was going to play.
25:42
Speaker 6: I mean, he in his head determined that he was
25:44
Speaker 6: going to play, but the official announcement came out about
25:46
Speaker 6: an hour and a half before the game, when the
25:48
Speaker 6: lineup came out that he was playing in center field
25:50
Speaker 6: and batting seventh. Well, he was three for four with
25:51
Speaker 6: two doubles in a home run. He talked about how
25:53
Speaker 6: it felt in the first inning when the team scored
25:55
Speaker 6: six runs.
25:56
Speaker 2: I feel like when we do that, it's like kind
25:59
Speaker 2: of like put.
25:59
Speaker 5: You if you was saying a little bit ago, like
26:03
Speaker 5: just chill right, like you're not trying to do too much,
26:06
Speaker 5: and I feel like as a group, you just kind.
26:08
Speaker 2: Of fed off of that.
26:09
Speaker 5: So I think when you see the first couple guys
26:12
Speaker 5: get on and things start moving around, like you said,
26:14
Speaker 5: you know the pressures on the pitcher in that way,
26:16
Speaker 5: so you're not going up there trying to do more.
26:18
Speaker 5: You're trying to see pitches, but you're also trying to
26:21
Speaker 5: just get the first one over the plate and try
26:23
Speaker 5: to do contact too. But I'll pass off to all
26:25
Speaker 5: the guys in front of me.
26:26
Speaker 6: I'm behind me for having a quality at that and
26:28
Speaker 6: on the pitching side yesterday, Robert Gasser not great. How
26:31
Speaker 6: to be taken out in the fourth inning, so the
26:33
Speaker 6: bullpen had to pick him up, just like they had
26:35
Speaker 6: to pick up dustin May the day before, and throughout
26:38
Speaker 6: the series against Seattle, the bullpen was dynamite, did not
26:41
Speaker 6: allow a run. Aaron Ashby talk to us about how
26:44
Speaker 6: it feels in that bullpen right now, Just a.
26:46
Speaker 2: Testament to the guys down there. I think that everyone's
26:50
Speaker 2: ready to throw. Every day.
26:51
Speaker 1: We look forward to picking each other up, picking the
26:54
Speaker 1: starter up.
26:54
Speaker 5: It's just kind of like Greenie gets us locked in
26:56
Speaker 5: when that phone rings early, and it's like we just
26:58
Speaker 5: got a hold of line, like Wan ending out for.
27:00
Speaker 2: Another Chad today, d l yesterday, Billy.
27:04
Speaker 4: All of them. Just phenomenal job.
27:06
Speaker 2: I think it helped helped us win the game today
27:08
Speaker 2: for sure.
27:09
Speaker 6: So the Brewers roll into today's marquee matchup in American
27:13

27:39
Speaker 3: Thank you, Hunter B. I like to throw in, have
27:42
Speaker 3: a great weekend. It's nice all this to be able
27:44
Speaker 3: to catch a little I like that. Also, Garrett Mitchell
27:47
Speaker 3: really wanted to say it. You could tell he really
27:50
Speaker 3: wanted to really wanted to say the F word, but
27:52
Speaker 3: he decided that he wasn't going to. He's got to
27:54
Speaker 3: set that example for the new for the new youngster,
27:56
Speaker 3: the new youngsters. Mark, that's really great. You can just
27:58
Speaker 3: start saying fudge, Garrett, It's okay. That's the easiest way
28:02
Speaker 3: around it.
28:03
Speaker 1: And the homer was great and getting a coupled but
28:05
Speaker 1: that hustle double that he.
28:06
Speaker 2: Had big mm hmm. Man, he's got some wheels.
28:09
Speaker 3: And we had somebody on the talking text line right
28:13
Speaker 3: out of the shoot earlier on Today Tommy and stals
28:15
Speaker 3: Am I the only one getting lefty braun vibes from Mitchell.
28:19
Speaker 2: Might be the only one on that side. I'm not
28:20
Speaker 2: going to go that far with.
28:21
Speaker 3: It, but the the athleticism and the ability to showcase
28:27
Speaker 3: it right there, Drew like he does have right now
28:29
Speaker 3: speed and it's almost sometimes slipt on.
28:31
Speaker 1: I had him, I've always had my comp for him
28:35
Speaker 1: with Steve Finley, I like that played for the Diamondbacks. No,
28:40
Speaker 1: he was like a wiry he was kind of built
28:42
Speaker 1: like Mitchell, which really fast, great defensive player.
28:45
Speaker 2: Had pop.
28:47
Speaker 1: He might have been a little bit more of a
28:48
Speaker 1: consistent hitter in terms of but then everybody was a
28:51
Speaker 1: better hitter back then because they didn't have as many
28:53
Speaker 1: guys throwing disgusting stuff.
28:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, and in contact was so much more lauded and celebrated.
28:59
Speaker 3: I think, what if you look at a lot of
29:01
Speaker 3: the underlying numbers for Mitchell and his plate discipline got
29:06
Speaker 3: a lot better throughout the year, and now Drew, it
29:08
Speaker 3: shouldn't be the craziest thing because he's actually seeing pitching
29:12
Speaker 3: every day, right, Like not having to get interrupted for
29:14
Speaker 3: two or three months from rehabbing from a major injury
29:17
Speaker 3: can be a way of it. But in the first,
29:20
Speaker 3: you know, two months of the year, some of his
29:22
Speaker 3: strikeouts were painstaking.
29:23
Speaker 2: Three pitches and just like looked bad.
29:26
Speaker 3: His chase rate is so far down over the last
29:29
Speaker 3: two and a half months that it's impressive how he
29:32
Speaker 3: is working himself at the plate knowing.
29:35
Speaker 2: That he can hit mistakes.
29:36
Speaker 3: Now, I just got to be able to hunt them
29:38
Speaker 3: and not allow somebody to feed me a bunch of jump.
29:40
Speaker 4: That pitch selection is such a big factor for him,
29:42
Speaker 4: obviously it was for guys like Jackson as well. Got
29:45
Speaker 4: to be able to stay out of the way of
29:47
Speaker 4: hitting their pitches and make sure they give you their
29:49
Speaker 4: pitches for your pitches and you go get them. So
29:52
Speaker 4: it's been really important for him. Good to see him
29:54
Speaker 4: get lathered up again a little bit. Gonna need him
29:56
Speaker 4: for the stretch run. Good need that. Garrett Mitchell we
29:58
Speaker 4: got in the beginning of the of the year to
30:00
Speaker 4: to get going again. And it seems like he always
30:02
Speaker 4: makes a great defensive play when when these games happened.
30:04
Speaker 2: And last night to finish the game, ran that ball
30:06
Speaker 2: down and center thing of beauty.
30:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, a couple of nice plays. Yeah, the ninth inning,
30:11
Speaker 1: So that was that was huge, as they say, eight
30:15
Speaker 1: seven three, Yeah, that the Gasser thing was interesting. That
30:20
Speaker 1: and Murph went and got him and kind of made
30:22
Speaker 1: the savment. But man, the way the guys like Patrick
30:24
Speaker 1: and Ashby's been so good. Ashby worked into his own
30:27
Speaker 1: trouble in his second inning of work and got him
30:30
Speaker 1: into it, got out of it, and then McGill. McGill's
30:34
Speaker 1: to the point where he's gonna surf one up soon
30:38
Speaker 1: and people are gonna lose it. And then they're gonna
30:40
Speaker 1: get Negate the what fifteen straight scoreless.
30:42
Speaker 2: We're gonna forget just how dominant he's been.
30:44
Speaker 1: He hasn't The guys don't even reach base against him
30:47
Speaker 1: in this stretch. But then that becomes your expectation. He's
30:51
Speaker 1: given up three runs in three months. It's just disgusting.
30:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, we earned runs since summer started in June.
30:57
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, the expectations like that increases to your right,
31:01
Speaker 4: do you expect them to never give up run?
31:02
Speaker 2: And when they do, everyone's gonna Yeah.
31:05
Speaker 1: You know who went through that was Sensitella to He's
31:08
Speaker 1: had a couple of rough ones and it's like he
31:10
Speaker 1: socks and people want to jump off of dustin May
31:13
Speaker 1: after a one start, you know, it's like, oh he
31:15
Speaker 1: was terrible May Day, It's not gonna be I'm not
31:17
Speaker 1: gonna say may day now winning pitches.
31:19
Speaker 3: I saw certain people want a d F A M
31:21
Speaker 3: and sense Tella. It's like, uh, there's no, there's no chance.
31:24
Speaker 3: I mean like way way a wait good for too.
31:27
Speaker 1: Long, and yeah, you're gonna have those ticus relievers give
31:31
Speaker 1: up runs. Also, yeah, it's like and it gets magnified, but.
31:35
Speaker 2: It gets magnified.
31:36
Speaker 3: It's also a completely different operation than he's had for
31:39
Speaker 3: his first what seven years in the big leagues.
31:41
Speaker 2: Might might be a change, a little bit of change.
31:43
Speaker 2: And Josh Hater had a.
31:44
Speaker 3: Really cool stance and statement about the Brewers and about
31:49
Speaker 3: getting traded at the deadline, because there's a lot of
31:52
Speaker 3: national outlets that still are frustrated and will go to
31:56
Speaker 3: their dying days of saying that the Brewers are not
31:58
Speaker 3: doing enough, won't try to win, and this way of
32:01
Speaker 3: going about business isn't great.
32:02
Speaker 2: And you know, Hater was maybe one of the biggest
32:06
Speaker 2: case studies of it.
32:07
Speaker 3: When he gets shipped out at the deadline and how
32:09
Speaker 3: much that actually impacted the locker room, He's like, I
32:11
Speaker 3: don't know, it's kind of hard to fault what they're
32:13
Speaker 3: totally doing.
32:15
Speaker 2: I look at it. I guess we could nitpick.
32:18
Speaker 3: But you know, maybe that's how they keep getting great
32:21
Speaker 3: young players and how they continually develop pitching. Looks like
32:24
Speaker 3: they're developing hitting right now too. It's not a bad
32:26
Speaker 3: place to go, really, not a bad place to be sure.
32:30
Speaker 3: If we could get one huge player at the deadline,
32:33
Speaker 3: maybe that does help. There's no guarantee that guy doesn't
32:35
Speaker 3: come in and is in the midst of moving his
32:37
Speaker 3: family and has the worst two months of his career.
32:40
Speaker 3: Perspective that you never think of when you when you
32:42
Speaker 3: get somebody in there right now, he'll be throwing logic
32:44
Speaker 3: at us like that, what are you trying to do? Yeah, Billy,
32:47
Speaker 3: that wasn't me, It was Josh Hater.
32:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. As Garrett Mitchell said, guys,
32:50
Speaker 2: it's chill, right, it's chill. Six running thing. It's chill.
32:53
Speaker 2: I like that.
32:55
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven seven nine four one nighty so three
32:57
Speaker 1: year ticket to join US. Audience participation vital today.
33:01
Speaker 2: We got some texts, some good ones spin through.

Speaker 1: Wayne Laravie joins us today. It's seven twenty five Alive from.
33:09
Speaker 3: Denver and Wayne. Wayne loves Mountains. Wayne loves the Utah Mountains.
33:15
Speaker 3: I don't know if like Colorado Rocky Mountains and the
33:18
Speaker 3: Utah Mountains, if their friends or not. But I'm excited
33:21
Speaker 3: to be able to enjoy that one. We'll say he

33:24

33:25

33:27
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin, huddled up on a Friday in
33:32
Speaker 1: the good Land rebellion arman bringing it to you. Reach
33:35
Speaker 1: out to us eight seven seven seven nine three. Let
33:38
Speaker 1: us know you're out there. Five o'clock clubers. It's a
33:41
Speaker 1: five o'clock club on a Friday. Now, here's a question
33:44
Speaker 1: that probably only applies to us. If you're in the
33:46
Speaker 1: five o'clock club and you're a proud, hard carrying member,
33:51
Speaker 1: you get up at five am.
33:52
Speaker 2: Are you up and around on Saturday and Sunday?
33:54
Speaker 1: Or are you like us and trying to be a
33:56
Speaker 1: more normal and stay up later and wake up later.
33:59
Speaker 3: That's good question, Drew, because there's a I would actually
34:02
Speaker 3: say there's probably Now this is gonna be just because
34:05
Speaker 3: of the location we're in.
34:06
Speaker 2: I think Saturday there might be even more five.
34:08
Speaker 3: O'clock clubbers, because if you're gonna get out on the water,
34:12
Speaker 3: and you're gonna be trying to catch yourself munch and dinner.
34:14
Speaker 2: You're gonna be getting up earth first. You're first. They're
34:17
Speaker 2: gonna be getting up early.
34:19
Speaker 3: Our boy, Chucky Garbedian, used to always tell me that
34:21
Speaker 3: when when I said, yeah, I really like playing early,
34:23
Speaker 3: like seven thirty, Chuck, Chuck is I got twelve holes
34:29
Speaker 3: in by that time? Chuck is, Damn, I didn't know
34:31
Speaker 3: they eat off that truck.
34:32
Speaker 1: Is warming up when it's still almost too dark to
34:34
Speaker 1: see where your t shot goes.
34:36
Speaker 3: To me, it's like when the sun rises over your
34:38
Speaker 3: third hole. That's when you know you hit it right.
34:40
Speaker 3: What did you do in the first two? Hit it straight?
34:43
Speaker 2: It's right, that's pretty good, I'm thinking, Okay, I guess so.
34:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you've got to turn the light on on
34:47
Speaker 1: your phone to find your ball in the fairway, something's wrong.
34:49
Speaker 2: Something's wrong.
34:51
Speaker 4: Something's wrong you now fishermen golfers, and isn't like water skiers.
34:55
Speaker 4: Don't you have to get up early to get the
34:57
Speaker 4: right water. I'd never water ski, but I heard that
34:59
Speaker 4: some it's definitely more more of a sheet of glass.
35:04
Speaker 4: Get out there earlier, spiritual.
35:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, But if you're if you're out there at six
35:10
Speaker 3: thirty and folks are really thinking they're gonna grab a
35:12
Speaker 3: big walleye and you come out here dropping a ski
35:15
Speaker 3: and trying to slal him around, you are gonna look
35:17
Speaker 3: like the hole. No wake, buddy, look at the side. No, yeah,
35:20
Speaker 3: I don't know. Now, my pops was a big water
35:23
Speaker 3: skier back in the day. Really, I never knew that
35:26
Speaker 3: huge water.
35:27
Speaker 2: Not saying I wouldn't have predicted that, but that's.
35:29
Speaker 3: Pretty No, you wouldn't have, because then you would look
35:31
Speaker 3: at me and be like, well that kid.
35:33
Speaker 2: Was he doing like the Tommy Bartletts showing all that stuff?
35:35
Speaker 2: Or no, I believe he tried out once or twice.
35:37
Speaker 2: That is awesome.
35:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was either a big one skier and uh,
35:40
Speaker 3: disappointment to the entire family when your boy couldn't get
35:43
Speaker 3: up on skis. But that would be the one where
35:46
Speaker 3: maybe at some point, but I think you're you're trying
35:49
Speaker 3: to get something to eat. If you're getting up this
35:51
Speaker 3: early in the outdoors, right, you're you're trying to catch
35:53
Speaker 3: something to throw on the grill or potentially I mean
35:56
Speaker 3: we are going to be getting into pheasants season here
35:58
Speaker 3: pretty soon. I mean those those I know, our friend
36:01
Speaker 3: Paul Wagner is always always trying to figure out exactly
36:03
Speaker 3: the right time for turkey season. So we're gonna be
36:05
Speaker 3: getting into some good hunting time here where this is
36:08
Speaker 3: the time to be waking up or.
36:10
Speaker 4: Just come back here in the iHeart Megaplex, there's even
36:12
Speaker 4: more folks that are gonna be waking up early tomorrow.
36:15
Speaker 4: Drew maybe a little bit bleary eyed, uh, but they
36:18
Speaker 4: got to wake up for film because it's night one
36:20
Speaker 4: of high school football.
36:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, State, it was you got you know, you got
36:24
Speaker 2: to look at that tape.
36:25
Speaker 3: You gotta burn through that film before the boys come
36:27
Speaker 3: in here and they're gonna get in your workout at
36:29
Speaker 3: eight am, right, some might as well get up a
36:31
Speaker 3: little earlier and go and check this out and chart
36:33
Speaker 3: this film.
36:34
Speaker 2: Before we get back.
36:34
Speaker 1: But fantastic, the best and the most fun part of
36:37
Speaker 1: the year. Yeah, high school ball. They had a game
36:40
Speaker 1: last night. There was some really good games around last night.
36:43
Speaker 3: And also the uh cool to be able to see
36:46
Speaker 3: now this is just in our our portion of the state.
36:49
Speaker 3: Heart Park has been such an institution football wise for
36:52
Speaker 3: so long. It was devastated and ripped up through the
36:56
Speaker 3: floods that we had just over a year ago. Uh
36:59
Speaker 3: back at practice was Tosa East at Hard Park, barkets
37:02
Speaker 3: me playing some football games there.
37:03
Speaker 2: Again, that is a beautiful one.
37:04
Speaker 3: Because way too many teams playing at Hart Park for
37:07
Speaker 3: that one to be out of commission. So that was
37:08
Speaker 3: cool to be able to see that it's back up
37:10
Speaker 3: and running. And we're thinking about everybody up there in
37:13
Speaker 3: the Nasha area as they're displaced with what happened to
37:16
Speaker 3: their stadium, and those kids had such a cool moment
37:18
Speaker 3: with the Packers this past weekend and wish them all
37:21
Speaker 3: good luck throughout the season, but also good luck to
37:23
Speaker 3: the parents tonight. You're listening to us and you're watching,
37:27
Speaker 3: good luck to you. Now, calm down, take a deep breath,
37:30
Speaker 3: Maybe walk around a little bit if you have to.
37:32
Speaker 3: Or if you walk around, you might just end up
37:34
Speaker 3: like that dad of the Timber Rattlers kid. You might
37:36
Speaker 3: walk right into a first home run that the kid has.
37:39
Speaker 3: You might walk right into the end zone where your
37:40
Speaker 3: kid scores his first varsity touchdown. It could be a
37:43
Speaker 3: perfect time here tonight. He walkee at Greendale. That's a
37:46
Speaker 3: good one.
37:47
Speaker 2: That's a burner. So maybe I'll walk by that game.
37:50
Speaker 2: Well in case I can't, I used.
37:51
Speaker 3: To be in the Woodland Conference, but now felwalkee into
37:54
Speaker 3: the classic eight dog walking Kimberly Sussex game ended up
37:58
Speaker 3: being a very good one for the UH for the
38:01
Speaker 3: Sussex Chargers.
38:02
Speaker 2: I like that. I like that we're starting to talk
38:03
Speaker 2: high school football again.
38:04
Speaker 4: Makes you feel like, you know, makes you feel like
38:07
Speaker 4: you're at home, like summer's ending, fall starting.
38:09
Speaker 3: In well and this was the this would be the
38:11
Speaker 3: weak arm in where we could do our who drove
38:13
Speaker 3: further bowl?
38:14
Speaker 2: That was my favorite one, Drew, you gotta get into
38:16
Speaker 2: that with us man.
38:17
Speaker 4: I mean we usually do that for the state tournament
38:19
Speaker 4: because state championship.
38:20
Speaker 3: It really it really slaps when you got to meet
38:22
Speaker 3: in into the middle there.
38:23
Speaker 4: I can't randall the non connies, the non conference games.
38:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, some big travels for the non con that are
38:28
Speaker 3: rolling through, like Nathan Hale's been in the news.
38:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got coming.
38:32
Speaker 3: In hour and a half drive to go go for
38:36
Speaker 3: the game Kimberly, Sussex.

38:40
Speaker 2: it'sa Arrowhead next week game yesterday with Janesville Parker and
38:44
Speaker 2: Monona Grove. Oh, that's a good one. Our boy, Sean
38:46
Speaker 2: was fired up about the Monona Grove start. That's right,
38:49
Speaker 2: Janesville Parker, and then there's Jamesville Craig. That's correct.
38:53
Speaker 4: Yes, So I'm trying to think which one. I think
38:55
Speaker 4: Rob Logerman went to Craig former market.
38:59
Speaker 2: Yeah he did. I think. Oh, I dropped that in
39:01
Speaker 2: just thought I would you love your marquette references on Craig.
39:07
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, he's always ringing out a hooya, what are

Speaker 1: the slinger owls doing?
39:11
Speaker 3: We got to celebrate Alley Beers. Hey, that's right, celebrate
39:14
Speaker 3: a celebrate her brother Rivers. Yet No, but I did
39:18
Speaker 3: get the confirmation order. I went with the gray with
39:20
Speaker 3: the with the marquette scring.
39:22
Speaker 4: Because Derek and White wat obvious leaping at five o'clock

39:30
Speaker 4: I won't wake up.
39:30
Speaker 3: I was gonna say that definitely determins on the human
39:32
Speaker 3: alarm clocks, because I'm still not at the point where

39:40
Speaker 3: kids are just old enough to wake up, go pour
39:42
Speaker 3: their own cereal, and go turn on their own cartoons.
39:44
