- 0:57Speaker 2: good morning, and welcome to the radio program known as
- 1:02Speaker 2: Chuck and Buck in the Mornings. It is Chuck Powell.
- 1:05Speaker 2: It is not Bucky Jacobson. He is still out Oh
- 1:10Speaker 2: there is there is. I guess he did show up.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Ashley Ryan is here as well, and we welcome you
- 1:16Speaker 2: to this radio program. Four hours of radio coming your
- 1:19Speaker 2: way today as we have a lot to discuss today.
- 1:22Speaker 2: There is a very packed show coming your way today
- 1:27Speaker 2: here on this Tuesday morning. And I want to just
- 1:30Speaker 2: start just asking just a quick little question, just a
- 1:33Speaker 2: little quick survey of one person here this morning. Well,
- 1:37Speaker 2: what is it that these social media people get out
- 1:41Speaker 2: of just printing fake story sports stories.
- 1:45Speaker 4: Is there something they have no life and that's entertaining
- 1:49Speaker 4: to them?
- 1:49Speaker 2: I mean, did they get something out of it? Like
- 1:52Speaker 2: I think they do trick a lot of people. Like
- 1:54Speaker 2: for whatever reason, some guy just keeps doing AI Lebron
- 1:58Speaker 2: postgame shows, postgame comments, and then he's posting it as
- 2:03Speaker 2: fact and clearly deliberately to just try to trick people
- 2:07Speaker 2: into thinking it and get some rise out of human beings.
- 2:11Speaker 2: But the problem is that some people see that and
- 2:13Speaker 2: they just kind of brush by it, and then they
- 2:15Speaker 2: take that with them and then they think that that's true. Yeah,
- 2:19Speaker 2: and then they start spreading it and that either leads
- 2:22Speaker 2: to them looking like a fool at some point in
- 2:25Speaker 2: the very near future. But you're not even there. You
- 2:28Speaker 2: don't even get to be there to see them look
- 2:31Speaker 2: like a fool. So I mean, maybe you've got some
- 2:35Speaker 2: sort of like joker mentality where you just want to
- 2:39Speaker 2: see the world burn, but you're not even there to
- 2:42Speaker 2: witness it. You're just posting something and then you're just
- 2:45Speaker 2: snickering in the corner that I can't even imagine the
- 2:50Speaker 2: look on that stranger's face, that I can't even see
- 2:53Speaker 2: in my own mind's eye when he spreads this as gospel, Oh,
- 2:59Speaker 2: is he going to look like a fool.
- 3:01Speaker 4: That's basically it.
- 3:01Speaker 1: I think it is the idea of I'm gonna do this,
- 3:04Speaker 1: and so many people are gonna believe me, and they're
- 3:07Speaker 1: gonna look like idiots and get all riled up, and
- 3:10Speaker 1: I win. Whereas in reality, did you win when you're
- 3:13Speaker 1: spending all this time doing fake crap?
- 3:17Speaker 4: I hear I say, You're more likely on the losing
- 3:21Speaker 4: side of that.
- 3:22Speaker 2: I mean they are getting looks. I mean, I'll see
- 3:24Speaker 2: some if I see like, somebody will put like a trade,
- 3:27Speaker 2: like a fake trade. It doesn't exist, but they'll put
- 3:30Speaker 2: like and I'll I'm gonna stop every single time that
- 3:33Speaker 2: I see a professional.
- 3:34Speaker 4: Look make sure it's yeah, yeah, for sure.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Professional looking post that suggests a trade or a firing
- 3:41Speaker 2: or something. And I'm like, well, that's not that doesn't
- 3:43Speaker 2: make sense at all. And it takes you like three
- 3:45Speaker 2: seconds to realize. I mean, I couldn't recognize it by
- 3:49Speaker 2: the account name, but I will at least recognize that
- 3:52Speaker 2: there's no way that that's true, and then I'll move on.
- 3:55Speaker 2: But they got me to freeze, right. I mean, I
- 3:57Speaker 2: certainly didn't like it. I certainly didn't rep post it.
- 4:00Speaker 2: But I guess they're the number of people that they
- 4:04Speaker 2: did trick into liking or reposting. Somehow does something for you.
- 4:09Speaker 1: I think that's what they the joy they get out
- 4:13Speaker 1: of okay posts.
- 4:16Speaker 4: Likes and then yeah, yeah, yeah, I do feel like
- 4:20Speaker 4: you're probably right because.
- 4:22Speaker 1: And it's also then they laugh probably for every angry
- 4:25Speaker 1: comment of somebody who doesn't believe.
- 4:27Speaker 4: But I will say there's a guy that I.
- 4:28Speaker 1: Follow, and all he does is post satire, and people
- 4:33Speaker 1: still his account's been out for five years or more,
- 4:36Speaker 1: and people still will get so angry when he posts things,
- 4:40Speaker 1: and and everybody else is in on the joke.
- 4:42Speaker 4: So they're all like, oh gosh, how long until they
- 4:44Speaker 4: figure it out?
- 4:45Speaker 1: Because the guy says like he's the sports reporter for
- 4:48Speaker 1: the National Inquirer and all I mean, like you read
- 4:52Speaker 1: his profile. If you actually look at his profile, you
- 4:54Speaker 1: know it's a completely satirical account.
- 4:57Speaker 4: And the guy just has fun posting things up there
- 4:59Speaker 4: and like the onion, yeah yeah.
- 5:02Speaker 1: Similar, and so but people get he got Bucky like
- 5:06Speaker 1: four months ago or five months ago, and Bucky was
- 5:08Speaker 1: angry on X and then I was like, oh gosh,
- 5:11Speaker 1: I don't I want to tell him it's not real.
- 5:13Speaker 1: But I don't want to tell him it's not real
- 5:14Speaker 1: because I don't want to, right.
- 5:17Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Mean Bucky's not very bright. Wow, that's all three. I'm
- 5:21Speaker 2: on hands in on.
- 5:22Speaker 4: That Okay, game one two three idiot?
- 5:27Speaker 2: So I don't know, Uh, it just it seems like, see,
- 5:30Speaker 2: that's why I think you need I mean, I know
- 5:32Speaker 2: people won't like this, but on social media, that's why
- 5:35Speaker 2: you need borders. That's why you just need to charge
- 5:37Speaker 2: people to use it, like five dollars a month. Yeah,
- 5:39Speaker 2: And people are like, is it really worth it for
- 5:41Speaker 2: my goofy little jokes that nobody else likes but me
- 5:46Speaker 2: to put out fake trades? Yeah? No, I'm not gonna
- 5:49Speaker 2: do it anymore. Then you'll filter some of that out.
- 5:52Speaker 2: But anyway, it's uh, it's a bizarre, bizarre process. Yeah,
- 5:59Speaker 2: and it's a bizarre people that continuously go for that.
- 6:03Speaker 2: All right, let's dive into some thousand dollars grand slam cash.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Our keyword this hour is rich used in a sentence.
- 6:12Speaker 2: You're a rich girl and you've got to you thought,
- 6:17Speaker 2: all right, so rich at ninety three to three KJR
- 6:19Speaker 2: dot com for your shot at one thousand dollars in
- 6:22Speaker 2: Grand Slam cash. So take advantage. I got another keyword
- 6:26Speaker 2: coming your way. Next hour. We start today's show, though
- 6:30Speaker 2: with the National Football League schedule release week is here,
- 6:34Speaker 2: and on Thursday we will know the entire National Football
- 6:38Speaker 2: League schedule and we'll react accordingly. But this is schedule
- 6:43Speaker 2: release leak week, and it is I'm going to I'm
- 6:47Speaker 2: going to say, and I just heard an interview with
- 6:49Speaker 2: him this morning, so I think I got evidence to
- 6:53Speaker 2: support this statement. I think this is Adam Schefter's favorite
- 6:57Speaker 2: time of the year because I think he has the
- 7:01Speaker 2: entire schedule. I think it's already been given to him,
- 7:04Speaker 2: and then he is just given like a permission on
- 7:08Speaker 2: what he can leak every so often, and so in
- 7:12Speaker 2: order to keep his inside connections, he can't leak more
- 7:17Speaker 2: than he already leaks. Okay, but he'll get like a
- 7:22Speaker 2: leak button that says, okay, you can leak this, and
- 7:25Speaker 2: then it highlights it. Okay, I can leak that. He
- 7:28Speaker 2: just said this morning in a conversation that he thinks
- 7:32Speaker 2: this should start in March. Every day he should or
- 7:36Speaker 2: someone should be able that has access to it leak
- 7:40Speaker 2: one game a day like to so until we run
- 7:45Speaker 2: out of games to leak all the way up to
- 7:48Speaker 2: actual NFL schedule release week. I mean, you are sick, man.
- 7:53Speaker 4: And also I would be so over it by week two.
- 7:58Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 7:59Speaker 1: We don't need the NFL does not need to find
- 8:02Speaker 1: a way to draw more attention to itself. In March,
- 8:05Speaker 1: everyone's already talking about the NFL Draft. Some people are
- 8:08Speaker 1: preparing to celebrate the entire month of a holiday.
- 8:10Speaker 2: Most people are sick.
- 8:12Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of people are still talking about the
- 8:14Speaker 1: super Bowl and the season prior. You've got free agents.
- 8:17Speaker 1: I mean, you've got a lot of things going on
- 8:19Speaker 1: in the NFL. You don't need to add in, Hey,
- 8:21Speaker 1: we should torture people with schedule leaks so we can
- 8:25Speaker 1: all feel a little bit more important every week.
- 8:27Speaker 2: They're even they're already guilty of. I mean, they knowingly,
- 8:31Speaker 2: willingly strategically spread their off season events out so that
- 8:36Speaker 2: they can steal the thunder of every other sport out there,
- 8:41Speaker 2: every other league out there. So they already do that,
- 8:45Speaker 2: And now you have somebody who is way too big
- 8:49Speaker 2: a part of my life let's face it, in Adam Schefter,
- 8:52Speaker 2: I just you know you are sending me. I would
- 8:56Speaker 2: not allow my mom to send me texts and tweets
- 9:00Speaker 2: at midnight, Okay, there would be a talking to with her.
- 9:07Speaker 2: And yet I get Adam Schefter's reports because I need
- 9:10Speaker 2: somebody to update me so I don't miss something. But
- 9:15Speaker 2: then I have to put up with all sorts of
- 9:16Speaker 2: stuff that I want to miss just so I don't
- 9:19Speaker 2: miss anything. So you're already invading all of our lives
- 9:23Speaker 2: far too much. And for him to suggest no, my
- 9:26Speaker 2: problem is I don't get to invade your lives enough.
- 9:30Speaker 2: I don't have enough insider information for him to have
- 9:34Speaker 2: that approach shows you how sick a person that he is,
- 9:38Speaker 2: quite frankly, and so I admit, I mean as somebody
- 9:42Speaker 2: that takes the ball and runs with it during the
- 9:44Speaker 2: NFL Draft, I don't know if I have a real
- 9:47Speaker 2: firm ground to stand on well, but I mean, I
- 9:52Speaker 2: really do kind of roll my eyes at this whole
- 9:55Speaker 2: NFL schedule. I guess the same that people roll their
- 9:57Speaker 2: eyes at me during draft miss but the NFL schedule
- 10:01Speaker 2: is just I feel just so overreacted to it. I mean,
- 10:06Speaker 2: I've outlined all the little nitty gritty parts of the
- 10:09Speaker 2: draft and why I think it's so meaningful. And yes,
- 10:12Speaker 2: it's a tongue in cheek joke that we do throughout
- 10:14Speaker 2: the course of the month, but nonetheless there is an
- 10:16Speaker 2: appetite for it. So I will at least recognize there's
- 10:19Speaker 2: an appetite for all these little schedule nuggets that get
- 10:22Speaker 2: leaked out. But it just is strange, how for me,
- 10:29Speaker 2: as father draft misses like this, do we have to
- 10:33Speaker 2: stretch this out even further? And now you're telling me
- 10:36Speaker 2: you'd like to stretch it out so we do this
- 10:37Speaker 2: every day? No, thank you.
- 10:40Speaker 1: No, it's the dumbest thing I've ever heard, honestly, And
- 10:42Speaker 1: Adam Schefter or you know he already he already drives
- 10:46Speaker 1: me crazy anyway. But I just the last thing I
- 10:50Speaker 1: think that we need is yet to make it a
- 10:52Speaker 1: bigger deal. When the college schedules come out one day,
- 10:55Speaker 1: here's the college schedule. Look, we made this pretty graphic
- 10:57Speaker 1: and here's all your games.
- 10:59Speaker 4: I think that's ectat.
- 11:00Speaker 1: I would like it if when the NFL says our
- 11:02Speaker 1: schedule is gonna come out on Thursday at four thirty,
- 11:06Speaker 1: then on Thursday at four thirty. Every team has their
- 11:09Speaker 1: little graphic and look, here's our schedule. I don't even
- 11:11Speaker 1: need the leaks because I don't need the leaks. I'm
- 11:14Speaker 1: not sitting there anticipating the schedule so much that I need.
- 11:19Speaker 1: I need to get little tidbits leading up to Thursday,
- 11:21Speaker 1: Like I can't wait for just more information on the
- 11:24Speaker 1: NFL and when they're gonna play their games four months
- 11:28Speaker 1: from now.
- 11:29Speaker 2: Yeah, the NFL wants to dominate our every thought, everything,
- 11:33Speaker 2: and Adam Schefter apparently has not gotten enough attention over
- 11:36Speaker 2: the years.
- 11:39Speaker 1: It's I mean, even to the point of having a
- 11:41Speaker 1: Wednesday game for the Seahawks, Like, that's annoying to me.
- 11:44Speaker 1: You have the Super Bowl champions now opening the season
- 11:47Speaker 1: on a Wednesday because you decided we should put first
- 11:50Speaker 1: off a division game on a in Australia on a
- 11:53Speaker 1: Thursday to start the season.
- 11:55Speaker 4: If I was Rams and forty nine Ers fans, I'd
- 11:58Speaker 4: be pissed about that too.
- 11:59Speaker 2: Well, like I said, I think we've got enough leakage.
- 12:02Speaker 2: Ashley says, we have too much leakage as it already stands.
- 12:06Speaker 2: But I do have to share a leak with you
- 12:08Speaker 2: this morning. Gosh o God, and I was sitting there
- 12:11Speaker 2: doing my show prep and my phone lights up at
- 12:15Speaker 2: like four point fifteen in the morning, and I'm like,
- 12:17Speaker 2: oh gosh, Schefters early today, I know it was about
- 12:21Speaker 2: lebron and it was recapping the night before, But about
- 12:26Speaker 2: nine minutes later, I do get the first tweet of
- 12:29Speaker 2: the morning and the first leak of the day. And
- 12:33Speaker 2: so your first leak of the day, at your first
- 12:35Speaker 2: leak of the day. Adam Schefter reported this morning that
- 12:41Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos and the Kansas City Chiefs will play
- 12:45Speaker 2: the first Monday night football game this season. Now they
- 12:48Speaker 2: don't know where apparently yet, or he doesn't know where,
- 12:52Speaker 2: or he's not allowed to tell us where yet, I
- 12:54Speaker 2: don't know why, but it will be Denver versus Kansas
- 12:57Speaker 2: City the first Monday Night football. Now, there's usually two
- 12:59Speaker 2: month night football game, so it's probably the first of two,
- 13:03Speaker 2: or maybe it's the second if it's at Denver, but
- 13:06Speaker 2: Monday Night football, first Monday Night football day of the year.
- 13:09Speaker 2: It will be a Division matchup between the Broncos and
- 13:12Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs. And we don't even know if
- 13:13Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes is gonna be healthy enough to play in
- 13:16Speaker 2: that game, and yet they're still going to put the
- 13:17Speaker 2: Chiefs in some primetime in a primetime slot to start
- 13:21Speaker 2: the year. So how does this impact the Seahawks. Well,
- 13:25Speaker 2: as we are trying to figure out, I don't know
- 13:27Speaker 2: why we're trying so hard to figure this out.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Because we can't wait till Thursday, Jack, we.
- 13:31Speaker 2: Can just wait till Thursday. I'm not going to change anything.
- 13:35Speaker 2: But it was a huge topic yesterday online trying to
- 13:41Speaker 2: put the pieces together to figure out who the Seahawks
- 13:45Speaker 2: will open the season with in defense of their world title.
- 13:48Speaker 2: So we knew yesterday and we covered this yesterday morning.
- 13:52Speaker 2: That's with the announcement that the Cowboys and Giants we're
- 13:57Speaker 2: going to play the first Sunday night game, took away
- 14:00Speaker 2: two of the potential season opener opponents because we know
- 14:06Speaker 2: for those that don't know, we knew at the end
- 14:08Speaker 2: of the regular season who all the Seahawks opponents were
- 14:12Speaker 2: going to be this year, and we have known for
- 14:14Speaker 2: that long whether or not they're going to play those
- 14:16Speaker 2: opponents at home or on the road. So the Cowboys
- 14:21Speaker 2: and Giants are on our list, and we know that
- 14:24Speaker 2: the Seahawks will not just open the season, they will
- 14:27Speaker 2: open at home. That always happens with the world champion.
- 14:29Speaker 2: Anybody were not realized we were world gym who won
- 14:32Speaker 2: the world championship? It was the Seahawks, Yeah, the Seahawks. Yeah.
- 14:36Speaker 2: So Cowboys Giants were on our list of nine home
- 14:40Speaker 2: opponents this year, So we know that those two teams
- 14:43Speaker 2: will not be in Seattle on Wednesday opening night. We
- 14:46Speaker 2: also know the Rams and forty nine ers will not
- 14:48Speaker 2: be because a lot not all of it yet, but
- 14:51Speaker 2: a lot of the International Games schedule has been leaked
- 14:55Speaker 2: to this point. We already know the Rams and forty
- 14:57Speaker 2: nine ers are going to be in Australia on that Thursday,
- 15:01Speaker 2: So we know the Rams and forty nine ers are off.
- 15:04Speaker 2: So that takes four teams off the list. And now
- 15:07Speaker 2: we know the Kansas City Chiefs are playing Monday night
- 15:09Speaker 2: of opening weeks, so that takes them off of the list.
- 15:12Speaker 2: So that leaves us with Patriots, Bears, Chargers, and Cardinals.
- 15:17Speaker 2: As we covered yesterday, don't imagine that the Cardinals, considering
- 15:22Speaker 2: they're in a bit of a rebuild state, are the
- 15:24Speaker 2: kind of team that the NFL is going to want
- 15:26Speaker 2: to put on its opening night.
- 15:28Speaker 4: Not gonna get a lot of hype for that one.
- 15:30Speaker 2: We're going to eliminate the Cardinals. I can't imagine, even
- 15:35Speaker 2: though maybe they would under other circumstances, put the Patriots
- 15:40Speaker 2: and the Seahawks in a Super Bowl rematch to start
- 15:43Speaker 2: the season. But with all this verable Russini stuff, not
- 15:46Speaker 2: only can I not imagine that they would do that,
- 15:48Speaker 2: Please don't do it. I do not want to spend
- 15:52Speaker 2: my Opening night getting excited about the football season, getting
- 15:55Speaker 2: excited about seeing the Seahawks play for the first time,
- 15:58Speaker 2: and then have to deal with an hour and a
- 16:01Speaker 2: half of the two and a half hour pregame being
- 16:04Speaker 2: about some reporter who can't stop sleeping with coaches.
- 16:08Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the last thing I want to hear about
- 16:10Speaker 1: on Opening night, right my team's football season.
- 16:12Speaker 2: And I can't imagine that the NFL would want as
- 16:16Speaker 2: they're presenting its pretty little season for the first time,
- 16:20Speaker 2: I can't imagine they would wrap it with, you know,
- 16:22Speaker 2: porn bow.
- 16:24Speaker 4: I would hope not, God, I really would hope not put.
- 16:27Speaker 2: Some porn wrapping around there. Yeah, hey, we got a
- 16:30Speaker 2: new Hey it's a president. The NFL seasons here, What
- 16:34Speaker 2: is this strange rapping? Is that Wieners and boobs.
- 16:38Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what we open every season.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Well, why is there a dilbo on it that has inappropriate?
- 16:50Speaker 2: So that leaves as far as we could tell from yesterday,
- 16:54Speaker 2: and I think most people were agreeing on social media
- 16:57Speaker 2: yesterday Chargers or Bears, and I just think Bears make
- 17:01Speaker 2: a little more sense. Charges makes a lot of sense
- 17:03Speaker 2: to me. That's a good team. They got a big
- 17:05Speaker 2: time quarterback, they've got a big time head coach that
- 17:07Speaker 2: we know really well. But the Bears is that's just
- 17:11Speaker 2: a sexier brand and they're.
- 17:13Speaker 4: Especially right now.
- 17:14Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and they seem to be getting back near
- 17:17Speaker 2: the top. I'm not sure they'll ever get back to
- 17:19Speaker 2: the top, but they're getting back near the top with
- 17:21Speaker 2: the last year, yeah, with Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams.
- 17:25Speaker 2: So we circled the Bears yesterday as the very very
- 17:29Speaker 2: likely team that they'll play. But you can eliminate the
- 17:33Speaker 2: Chiefs in a rematch with Ken Walker. As of this morning,
- 17:37Speaker 2: that is now off the table. So there you go.
- 17:39Speaker 2: There's the latest for people that couldn't wait to eliminate
- 17:42Speaker 2: another team from the possibility facing the Seahawks on Opening Night.
- 17:46Speaker 1: I feel better because I did sit there in my
- 17:48Speaker 1: bed last night, thinking well, I really should be going
- 17:51Speaker 1: to sleep, But I get the argument for the Bears.
- 17:55Speaker 4: Could the NFL be super sneaky.
- 17:56Speaker 1: Maybe they really do believe in Patrick mahomes recovery. And yeah,
- 18:00Speaker 1: and so now I know tonight I can sleep.
- 18:03Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. You'll get a good rest tonight.
- 18:05Speaker 4: Thank goodness.
- 18:06Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what's on TEP for the
- 18:08Speaker 2: rest of today's show. What's on tech? What's on tech?
- 18:15Speaker 2: NFL schedule release a week. They'll continue to leak things out,
- 18:19Speaker 2: no doubt about it. Yeah, Adam Schefter has on his
- 18:23Speaker 2: depends here this morning because he's gonna leak whenever the
- 18:27Speaker 2: league allows him to leak.
- 18:29Speaker 3: Uh.
- 18:29Speaker 2: So we'll update you whenever we get one, and of
- 18:33Speaker 2: course put it against how it affects the Seattle Seahawks.
- 18:38Speaker 2: It's also PGA Championship week, so that is something already
- 18:42Speaker 2: underway for us. Every major golf challenge we have the
- 18:46Speaker 2: major Golf tournament. We have a major Golf Challenge which
- 18:49Speaker 2: is available to you at ninety three to three kh
- 18:52Speaker 2: a r dot com. Fill out all of the brackets.
- 18:54Speaker 2: You've got a chance to win some prizes from PNW
- 18:57Speaker 2: Golf Academy and also gamble Sands. Of course, it's also
- 19:01Speaker 2: preating this week. I didn't realize Eddie Olchek was so
- 19:04Speaker 2: fired up about the Ponies Bucks he spent like seven
- 19:08Speaker 2: minutes of our fifteen minute conversation yesterday telling us about
- 19:11Speaker 2: the Ponies. So preating this week is this week the
- 19:14Speaker 2: Kentucky Derby winner Golden Tempo will not run in the race,
- 19:18Speaker 2: which makes it about ninety two percent less interesting. NBA
- 19:24Speaker 2: playoffs also are kind of in that stage of not
- 19:27Speaker 2: being so interesting right now. We've already seen the Knicks
- 19:31Speaker 2: knock out the seventy six ers and No Time flat,
- 19:34Speaker 2: and then last night OKC did the same thing to
- 19:37Speaker 2: the Lakers. Lakers led for most of the second half,
- 19:40Speaker 2: but the Thunder ended up winning in the end, and
- 19:43Speaker 2: it knocks the Lakers out of the playoffs, not that
- 19:46Speaker 2: we gave them much of a chance. Luka Doncic ends
- 19:50Speaker 2: up not even suiting up in the playoffs for the
- 19:52Speaker 2: Lakers this year. So OKAC moves on to the next round,
- 19:57Speaker 2: which is the Western Conference Final, and they have not
- 20:01Speaker 2: been touched yet. They are eight and oh, a perfect
- 20:03Speaker 2: eight to no so far in the playoffs. Meanwhile, was
- 20:07Speaker 2: it Lebron James final game of his illustrious NBA career.
- 20:12Speaker 2: Could be, but kind of feels like most people are
- 20:15Speaker 2: doubting that. Lebron was sort of vague last night in
- 20:20Speaker 2: his postgame remarks about where he's going to go with
- 20:24Speaker 2: his next step. But it kind of feels like he
- 20:27Speaker 2: doesn't look tired, and he just kind of and I
- 20:31Speaker 2: think he still thinks he's one of the best.
- 20:33Speaker 1: Well, and he didn't really get his full farewell tour
- 20:35Speaker 1: right because he hadn't announced he was retiring after the season,
- 20:38Speaker 1: and I feel like he wants that full farewell tour.
- 20:40Speaker 2: I think you're probably right about that. Also, yesterday, Jannis
- 20:43Speaker 2: ante Kotumpo rumors have really started to ramp up. It
- 20:47Speaker 2: looks like the Milwaukee Bucks are definitely of a mind
- 20:50Speaker 2: to trade him. I don't know why they didn't do
- 20:52Speaker 2: it at the deadline, but I mean, they could have
- 20:55Speaker 2: gotten one of these draft picks in the lottery. I'm
- 20:58Speaker 2: telling you, this is why fans think that they can
- 21:01Speaker 2: question general managers because they're stupid. A lot of them
- 21:04Speaker 2: are really stupid.
- 21:06Speaker 4: There.
- 21:06Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like they have ever like they have
- 21:08Speaker 1: any clue what they're doing, at least to me.
- 21:11Speaker 2: Spencer Hawes will join us at eight o'clock. We got
- 21:13Speaker 2: all sorts of things to discuss with Spencer, our NBA
- 21:17Speaker 2: Playoffs insider, that's what he's turned into on our radio program.
- 21:21Speaker 2: So we'll talk to him about Wimby's elbow. He did
- 21:24Speaker 2: not get suspended, so he will play in tonight's matchup
- 21:27Speaker 2: between the Spurs and Timberwolves. Game five. That series actually
- 21:31Speaker 2: interested interesting, it's even at two games apiece. Also Cleveland,
- 21:36Speaker 2: they squared up their series with Detroit last night as
- 21:39Speaker 2: Donovan Mitchell scored thirty nine of his forty three points
- 21:43Speaker 2: in the second half last night. But the big controversy
- 21:47Speaker 2: is the disparity and free throws that were shot last night,
- 21:51Speaker 2: as the Detroit Pistons are not happy about the officiating
- 21:55Speaker 2: right now. Stanley Cup Playoffs, Colorado's moved up three games
- 21:58Speaker 2: to one on the Minnesota Wild with a five to
- 22:00Speaker 2: two victory last night. Tonight you got Buffalo at Montreal
- 22:04Speaker 2: with the Canadians up to one, and Anaheim at Vegas.
- 22:07Speaker 2: That series is even at two. Finally, Mariners do win
- 22:11Speaker 2: last night. We're not blowing it off. We're going to
- 22:14Speaker 2: talk about it a lot today, just didn't lead with it.
- 22:16Speaker 2: Mariner's three to one winners over the Houston Astros, and
- 22:20Speaker 2: so we'll recap it for you with Mariners Morning After,
- 22:24Speaker 2: which is coming up next tonight. Brian woo versus tatsua Emi,
- 22:28Speaker 2: who comes off the injury list for the Houston Astros.
- 22:31Speaker 2: We put him on the injury list if yeah, we
- 22:34Speaker 2: played him. Yeah, he did not make it very long
- 22:36Speaker 2: into that game or into his first season as a
- 22:38Speaker 2: major leaguer. First pitch tonight is at five ten. We
- 22:42Speaker 2: will have Ryan Healy on to talk about cal Rawley's
- 22:45Speaker 2: continuing struggles. At nine o'clock, we'll also have Cooper Qriswell
- 22:49Speaker 2: on to talk about him filling a really big role
- 22:52Speaker 2: with three now three of our top five relievers on
- 22:55Speaker 2: the shelf for various reasons. He'll join us at nine thirty,
- 22:59Speaker 2: but he is next Mariners Morning After. Here on this Tuesday,
- 23:03Speaker 2: Chuck and Ashley with you Sports Radio ninety three point
- 23:05Speaker 2: three KHARFM. Three to one win Thus far in the show,
- 23:09Speaker 2: we started with NFL schedule release, oh in complaining about
- 23:12Speaker 2: people who post false stories.
- 23:14Speaker 4: Yeah, lots of leaking and lots of lyne right, And.
- 23:19Speaker 2: So we finally do get to recapping last night's Mariner's
- 23:23Speaker 2: victory over the Houston Astros, game one of a four
- 23:26Speaker 2: game series against a division rival that, let's face it,
- 23:30Speaker 2: for a decade, gave everyone in the American League West fits.
- 23:34Speaker 2: But it's been a long time. By the way, I
- 23:36Speaker 2: think this is important for the message in this series.
- 23:40Speaker 2: It's been a long time since the Mariners have sort
- 23:43Speaker 2: of been intimidated by this team. They've actually done really
- 23:47Speaker 2: well a little secret they've done really well over against
- 23:50Speaker 2: the Astros over the last three to four years, and
- 23:53Speaker 2: so this has not been a situation where the ms
- 23:57Speaker 2: have been in awe the Houston Astros whenever they face him,
- 24:02Speaker 2: even in Houston, and so far this season we're not
- 24:05Speaker 2: lost to them yet. So George Kirby took them ound
- 24:08Speaker 2: against Peyton Lambert. That was the pitching matchup yesterday. The
- 24:12Speaker 2: Mariners just a good looking inning for them in the
- 24:16Speaker 2: second where they got runners on base and then they
- 24:19Speaker 2: got two outs, and that's usually where they shrivel and die,
- 24:23Speaker 2: and instead back to back two out RBI hits from
- 24:28Speaker 2: Dom Canzone and also young Cole Young to make it
- 24:33Speaker 2: two to nothing at that point some really aggressive third
- 24:37Speaker 2: base coaching there, because I'm not sure either decision to
- 24:42Speaker 2: send the runner was a good one, but this.
- 24:45Speaker 4: Was a lot closer.
- 24:46Speaker 2: But you know, that's what you get when you're struggling offense.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Sometimes you got to take chances with two outs and
- 24:53Speaker 2: you got to make them make a play defensively. And
- 24:56Speaker 2: so you got a bobble from the left fielder that
- 24:59Speaker 2: allowed Ran Rosarina to score on a smoked ball to
- 25:03Speaker 2: left field by dom Canzone. And then you just got
- 25:05Speaker 2: perfect base running from Luke Raley. I mean he hit
- 25:08Speaker 2: that bag at the perfect angle, took the perfect angle home,
- 25:12Speaker 2: perfect head first slide, perfectly gets that hand in just
- 25:16Speaker 2: before he got tagged out, and you're up two to
- 25:19Speaker 2: nothing at that point. Yeah, beautiful stuff.
- 25:21Speaker 1: It was just the hustle from both a Rosarina and
- 25:25Speaker 1: from Raleigh.
- 25:25Speaker 4: I mean, just especially.
- 25:27Speaker 1: We don't see that hustle all the time from Randy,
- 25:29Speaker 1: but I think we're seeing it more consistently right now.
- 25:31Speaker 2: We're seeing him. We're seeing him hustle this year. I'll
- 25:34Speaker 2: go'll defend him because we're seeing him hustle. But you're right,
- 25:37Speaker 2: he's got a reputation for.
- 25:38Speaker 1: That well, you're seeing it more consistently this year, and
- 25:40Speaker 1: I love sure, Yeah.
- 25:41Speaker 2: But we're not seeing really consistent good decisions by him.
- 25:45Speaker 2: That still seems to.
- 25:46Speaker 4: Be an issue that could be a problem.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Yeah, But Luke Raley continues to just impress me this
- 25:50Speaker 1: year and I love watching him play.
- 25:52Speaker 2: All right, So two to nothing at that point, and
- 25:54Speaker 2: then top of the third, Peyton Lambert, we weren't done
- 25:57Speaker 2: with you, not just yet. No, we had disco or
- 26:00Speaker 2: one more big giant run against you. Julio rodrig has
- 26:05Speaker 2: let off the inning.
- 26:06Speaker 3: Three wonderful green kids keeps me busy and the blessed
- 26:08Speaker 3: and thanks for having me.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Are they exhausting?
- 26:11Speaker 3: But that's the beauty of a pottle of Vina.
- 26:13Speaker 1: At eight o'clock when.
- 26:14Speaker 3: I got home, this ball is not coming back. Oh
- 26:18Speaker 3: my goodness, it's off the signage. And Julio's hot hitting continues.
- 26:22Speaker 3: His seventh of the year leaves a dents to start
- 26:26Speaker 3: the third.
- 26:27Speaker 4: Oh man, I really love it.
- 26:31Speaker 2: When could you hear the smoke coming out of Aaron's ears?
- 26:34Speaker 2: There that you walked all over his one home run
- 26:38Speaker 2: call of the night, and Aaron looks for no doubters
- 26:41Speaker 2: because he's off and in doubt, yea with long fly balls,
- 26:47Speaker 2: and so Jay Buhner's story about his grandkids just bled
- 26:53Speaker 2: right into the only home run call of the night.
- 26:55Speaker 4: You can see the smoke coming out of my ears
- 26:57Speaker 4: on YouTube. I'll tell you that much. It's it is
- 27:01Speaker 4: talked about pet piece yesterday.
- 27:03Speaker 1: That's my pet piece. Just stop talking. Once the pitcher
- 27:06Speaker 1: goes into his wind up, just stop talking. I don't
- 27:09Speaker 1: care where you are and whatever story or analysis anyone,
- 27:12Speaker 1: and this isn't just jbu is everyone. I want to
- 27:15Speaker 1: hear the ball get smacked by the bat.
- 27:19Speaker 4: That's it.
- 27:21Speaker 2: Julio with the four hundred and fourteen foot bomb to
- 27:24Speaker 2: a left field I mean he crushed it, and the
- 27:28Speaker 2: Mariners took a three to nothing lead at that point.
- 27:30Speaker 2: I want to talk more about that home run a
- 27:32Speaker 2: little bit later on in the show. Now, as far
- 27:35Speaker 2: as the game itself, we don't have to stop scoring
- 27:39Speaker 2: runs just because we're up three and yet the team
- 27:43Speaker 2: made a decision.
- 27:44Speaker 4: Is that what happened?
- 27:45Speaker 2: Yes, okay, yeah, that's that should be enough and we're
- 27:48Speaker 2: gonna we're gonna hold right there. Okay, So George Kirby
- 27:53Speaker 2: only gets through the fifth inning last night, like that
- 27:57Speaker 2: pitch total. I don't know how it snuck up that fast,
- 28:00Speaker 2: but it felt like he was in control. And yet
- 28:03Speaker 2: all of a sudden in the fifth inning, is he
- 28:05Speaker 2: even going to get out of the fifth? Well, they
- 28:08Speaker 2: kept him in the game. He did give up a run,
- 28:11Speaker 2: but he danced around more damage, and so he's out
- 28:15Speaker 2: of the fifth. You're up three to one, and now
- 28:17Speaker 2: you've got to get through four innings of relievers, and
- 28:21Speaker 2: you only have two of your five best relievers available
- 28:26Speaker 2: to you because Jose Ferrer went on paternity leave yesterday,
- 28:30Speaker 2: and we know that brash Inspire are on the il.
- 28:33Speaker 2: So how do you bridge the gap to Bizardo in
- 28:35Speaker 2: the eighth and Munos in the ninth? Nick de Villa,
- 28:40Speaker 2: Nick Davila gets the call in the sixth inning, gets
- 28:45Speaker 2: the job done and rather easily, and then Cooper Criswell,
- 28:48Speaker 2: who's been a really nice surprise, gets the job done
- 28:52Speaker 2: in the seventh inning as well. I mean he was
- 28:54Speaker 2: brought over as a possible, you know, a long reliever,
- 28:57Speaker 2: spot starter. You know, if Emerson Hancock had a bad spring,
- 29:01Speaker 2: maybe he would have been in the starting rotation. And
- 29:04Speaker 2: now he's starting to get used in some higher leverage roles,
- 29:07Speaker 2: and he's coming through for the team to this point.
- 29:10Speaker 2: We'll actually get to chat with him today at nine
- 29:13Speaker 2: point thirty. Bizardo did get the job done in the eighth,
- 29:16Speaker 2: he struck out the side after allowing a lead off double,
- 29:19Speaker 2: and then Andres Munos with a beautiful ninth inning, striking
- 29:23Speaker 2: out jor Don Alvarez to end the game. Alvarez representing
- 29:28Speaker 2: the tying run at that point. We always have to
- 29:31Speaker 2: make it difficult. Oh, we always have to be on
- 29:34Speaker 2: the edge of our seat, like, all right, just get
- 29:36Speaker 2: al twove so Alvarez doesn't come up as the tying run.
- 29:39Speaker 2: Damn it.
- 29:40Speaker 4: Oh you want to put alive on? Okay, great, well, yeah, definitely,
- 29:43Speaker 4: there's a hit.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Awesome, but he struck him out, and he struck him
- 29:47Speaker 2: out with a change up, which is something he's not
- 29:50Speaker 2: real confident in throwing. Cayle's had to talk him into it,
- 29:53Speaker 2: but I think it's looking like a pretty effective weapon
- 29:56Speaker 2: for him at this point. Anyway, Mooney talked to the
- 30:00Speaker 2: media after the game.
- 30:01Speaker 5: You know, it seemed about as fired up as we've
- 30:03Speaker 5: seen you out there this season.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Just how much emotion did you have to go out
- 30:07Speaker 2: there and get that strike out against you.
- 30:08Speaker 5: What he has a lot of emotions. So I've been
- 30:12Speaker 5: working on a lot of stuff and were just as
- 30:17Speaker 5: soon as I get in so able to do my best.
- 30:20Speaker 5: And you know what, I did use to my amazine
- 30:23Speaker 5: all the time. I tried to do that. I was
- 30:25Speaker 5: listening to a little bit, but I went to I
- 30:27Speaker 5: went to continue to continue working on what helped you.
- 30:30Speaker 2: Get it back? You think whatever?
- 30:32Speaker 5: Probably every the companience that everybody keep me like that,
- 30:36Speaker 5: say that they are saying, like you're good like you,
- 30:39Speaker 5: you are doing the things that you have to do.
- 30:43Speaker 2: But yes, he's used like you just have to.
- 30:45Speaker 5: Keep working and go out there and tufts over there.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Andre's munios after the game. Forgive me, I gave some misinformation.
- 30:53Speaker 2: I must have been having a flashback to a previous
- 30:55Speaker 2: Bizardo outing. But he did not give up a leadoff
- 30:58Speaker 2: double in the eighth it was a lead off war
- 31:01Speaker 2: in the eighth inning, but then struck out Cole Smith
- 31:03Speaker 2: and Matthews to close out his portion of the game,
- 31:08Speaker 2: so three to one the final score. Four shutout innings
- 31:11Speaker 2: from the bullpen, including at least one unlikely character in
- 31:16Speaker 2: that scenario, and the Mariners get the win to start
- 31:19Speaker 2: the four game series. Three to one is your final score.
- 31:23Speaker 2: So they are twenty and twenty two now on the year,
- 31:25Speaker 2: the Astros are sixteen and twenty six. The two will
- 31:29Speaker 2: play again tonight. Brian wu will get the start for
- 31:32Speaker 2: the Mariners and Tatsuya Emi will get the start for
- 31:37Speaker 2: the Houston Astros. He was a big free agent signing
- 31:40Speaker 2: by the Astros this offseason, and there was a lot
- 31:43Speaker 2: of talk about how amazing he was looking in the spring,
- 31:47Speaker 2: and then he got just a couple of starts into
- 31:49Speaker 2: his season and it was against the Mariners. He did
- 31:52Speaker 2: not look right. Something was off. He walked the house
- 31:56Speaker 2: and was taken out of the game very early in
- 31:59Speaker 2: that con test, and then went on the IL immediately
- 32:03Speaker 2: afterwards and he has not pitched since. And so he
- 32:06Speaker 2: makes his return to the mound for the Astros tonight.
- 32:09Speaker 2: So I don't know which version we'll get, the one
- 32:11Speaker 2: that was making all the positive headlines in the spring
- 32:14Speaker 2: or the one that seemed to not be able to
- 32:17Speaker 2: find the strike zone in his start against the Mariners,
- 32:20Speaker 2: But it will be interesting to find out. So Woo
- 32:23Speaker 2: versus Emi is your pitching matchup tonight. First pitch is
- 32:28Speaker 2: at five ten. Ryan Heavey's going to join us later
- 32:31Speaker 2: in the show at nine o'clock for his weekly visit,
- 32:33Speaker 2: and we will discuss how Rawley's struggles because he is
- 32:37Speaker 2: now oh for his last thirty six and just looks sad. Yeah,
- 32:42Speaker 2: he just looks, I mean, beside himself.
- 32:45Speaker 1: Even after the after Mooney struck out Jordan and they
- 32:48Speaker 1: came to each other, you know, between the mound and
- 32:51Speaker 1: the plate and.
- 32:52Speaker 4: Gave each other kind of a hug. He's I don't
- 32:55Speaker 4: know something that he just you can tell there's a
- 32:57Speaker 4: lot going on in there. And it wasn't just I'm
- 32:59Speaker 4: real happy we won.
- 33:00Speaker 1: I know, he is really happy we won, and he's
- 33:02Speaker 1: focused on that more than on himself.
- 33:04Speaker 4: But you can tell something's bothering.
- 33:06Speaker 2: Well, it's a good thing, that tire catcher. And you're
- 33:07Speaker 2: so involved in the game because you can still take
- 33:10Speaker 2: some joy and personally from you know, I ushered Kirby
- 33:15Speaker 2: through five innings even though he wasn't on his game.
- 33:19Speaker 4: Yeah, and I got him the night before too.
- 33:21Speaker 2: And I got four shutout innings out of my bullpen tonight.
- 33:24Speaker 2: So you can take a lot of solace. And you
- 33:26Speaker 2: contributed mightily to the victory, but he's got to get fixed, yes,
- 33:31Speaker 2: otherwise we're not going to accomplish what we want to
- 33:33Speaker 2: accomplish this year. We'll talk more about that at seven
- 33:36Speaker 2: oh five, and then of course with Ryan Healey at
- 33:38Speaker 2: nine o'clock today. Coming up next though. You know, I
- 33:41Speaker 2: did talk about the NBA lottery yesterday, but just from
- 33:44Speaker 2: a rigging standpoint, there were actually some really interesting things
- 33:48Speaker 2: that came out of that result, so I think we
- 33:51Speaker 2: should probably shed some light on that, including why fans
- 33:55Speaker 2: can always question their general manager. We'll talk about that next.
- 33:59Speaker 2: Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM, All right, headlines
- 34:14Speaker 2: coming out at the top of the hour, plus some
- 34:16Speaker 2: more on the Mariners victory last night over the Houston
- 34:18Speaker 2: Astros and the struggles of cal Rawleigh. That's coming up
- 34:21Speaker 2: at seven o'clock. We have an emergency reckless at breakfast today.
- 34:24Speaker 2: I just finished putting together a list for that, and
- 34:27Speaker 2: you're not going to be happy about it. Oh oh,
- 34:30Speaker 2: you're gonna find it to be rather reckless. So we're
- 34:33Speaker 2: gonna do that today at seven forty five. But yesterday
- 34:37Speaker 2: I spent a little bit of time because I didn't
- 34:39Speaker 2: get to spend time on it late last week announcing
- 34:43Speaker 2: to the world that I think that the NBA lottery
- 34:46Speaker 2: is rigged and has been forever. Yeah, I can't confirm that,
- 34:51Speaker 2: but they can't deny it. Kind of got suspicions, And
- 34:55Speaker 2: actually I would think that at minimum all general managers
- 35:01Speaker 2: in the NBA either know or are suspicious of the
- 35:05Speaker 2: exact same thing. I mean, the players are. I mean,
- 35:09Speaker 2: if the players are, why haven't the general managers pulled
- 35:13Speaker 2: them aside and said that's silly, don't be silly, that's
- 35:16Speaker 2: don't spread that stuff. So I think they kind of
- 35:19Speaker 2: know to to a degree. How much they know, I
- 35:22Speaker 2: don't know that, But you know, plausible deniability, that's what
- 35:27Speaker 2: it's all about. Teflon don It's just like Gotti. You
- 35:31Speaker 2: know what you do is you send out all of
- 35:33Speaker 2: your menions and as long as you keep yourself Teflon,
- 35:37Speaker 2: as long as you keep yourself away from the direct
- 35:40Speaker 2: contact to any kind of suspicious behavior, then you can
- 35:44Speaker 2: deny it all you want. So that's kind of what
- 35:47Speaker 2: I think happens with the NBA lottery. But we didn't
- 35:49Speaker 2: really discuss like the impact of yesterday's lottery, and I
- 35:53Speaker 2: think the greatest impact from it. I mean, yes, there
- 35:56Speaker 2: are a lot of teams that are going to be
- 35:58Speaker 2: able to add a really signific player. They're calling this
- 36:01Speaker 2: the deepest draft we've seen in twenty five years. The
- 36:04Speaker 2: top ten is going to give the top ten teams
- 36:08Speaker 2: a really significant player to build around or help build around,
- 36:12Speaker 2: set a foundation for the future. And that's why so
- 36:15Speaker 2: many teams were tanking this past year, which brings to
- 36:19Speaker 2: light the thing that I grab as the biggest takeaway
- 36:24Speaker 2: from this year's NBA lottery. Anybody tells you as a
- 36:27Speaker 2: sports fan that you don't have the right to question
- 36:30Speaker 2: your general manager, just point out to the NBA lottery
- 36:35Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, because why the Milwaukee Bucks when they
- 36:40Speaker 2: could have traded Janis at the trading deadline and probably
- 36:44Speaker 2: to the Atlanta Hawks for one of these picks and
- 36:46Speaker 2: a lot more, just as an example, why they didn't
- 36:51Speaker 2: move Janis at the trading deadline, and now we're going
- 36:53Speaker 2: to have to trade him for even less than they
- 36:55Speaker 2: would have gotten at the trading deadline, and you're going
- 36:58Speaker 2: to trade him for picks in a draft in the
- 37:00Speaker 2: future that doesn't apt near the amount of talent at
- 37:03Speaker 2: the top. And the league has introduced anti tanking policies,
- 37:08Speaker 2: so you're not going to be able to just lose
- 37:10Speaker 2: games on purpose and find your way toward the top
- 37:13Speaker 2: of the draft, even if the draft is on the
- 37:17Speaker 2: up and up, which we all doubt that it is.
- 37:20Speaker 2: So why you didn't trade Yannis at the trading deadline
- 37:24Speaker 2: this year? Why you decided to hold on to him
- 37:27Speaker 2: and then seconds after the season ends, we're looking to
- 37:31Speaker 2: trade y honis what I mean. I get why you
- 37:36Speaker 2: might want to keep him, but if you are going
- 37:39Speaker 2: to trade him, which you have should have been thinking
- 37:41Speaker 2: about for three years, why now have you decided when
- 37:46Speaker 2: you are trading him to a less fervent market, you know,
- 37:51Speaker 2: and he's become such a liability to your organization.
- 37:55Speaker 4: So obviously he doesn't want to be there.
- 37:57Speaker 2: Attitudinally, and now you're now you're going to trade him.
- 38:00Speaker 2: I just put together a fake trade last night. I
- 38:03Speaker 2: used that trade machine on ESPN dot com, Jamal Murray
- 38:08Speaker 2: and then a couple of young players. This is even
- 38:10Speaker 2: without draft picks for Jannis Anto Katumbo, and the machine
- 38:16Speaker 2: told me that that was a minus eleven games trade
- 38:20Speaker 2: for for the Denver Nuggets, not for the Bucks. For
- 38:24Speaker 2: the Denver Nuggets to make that move. And so I'm
- 38:28Speaker 2: not saying that's accurate, because it's not. But I'm just saying,
- 38:32Speaker 2: now you're going to trade him when his value is
- 38:34Speaker 2: lower and you don't have you're not going to get
- 38:37Speaker 2: draft picks from the richest draft in twenty five years.
- 38:40Speaker 2: It's dumb. Same with the Indiana Pacers. I mean, I
- 38:44Speaker 2: suppose there are some merits to their general manager apologizing
- 38:48Speaker 2: for the trade they made and citing bad luck in
- 38:51Speaker 2: the NBA lottery, But again, don't you think the lottery
- 38:55Speaker 2: is rigged? Don't you at least suspect it? And you
- 38:59Speaker 2: have a commission who's pissed off at all the tanking teams,
- 39:02Speaker 2: and you are one of the tanking teams from this
- 39:05Speaker 2: past year. And you can't even blame it on the
- 39:09Speaker 2: fact that, well, we made that trade earlier than we
- 39:12Speaker 2: realized we were going to be bad. No, you made
- 39:15Speaker 2: it in February of this year. You traded for a
- 39:19Speaker 2: thirty year old who has never been an all star
- 39:23Speaker 2: big man seven foot tall, who averages a career fourteen
- 39:27Speaker 2: points and ten rebounds per game, And you traded Benedict
- 39:32Speaker 2: Madaren and two first round picks including a potential lottery
- 39:37Speaker 2: pick five to nine, and so maybe the ping pong
- 39:40Speaker 2: balls didn't fall your way, but you were trying to
- 39:43Speaker 2: thread a needle.
- 39:45Speaker 4: You gave me and set yourself up for a lot
- 39:47Speaker 4: of success.
- 39:47Speaker 2: You gave up the fifth overall pick and Benedict Madaren
- 39:52Speaker 2: and you still owe draft capital the Clippers in the future.
- 39:56Speaker 2: That is one of the worst most blind side trades
- 40:01Speaker 2: I think that I've come across in a number of years. So, okay,
- 40:05Speaker 2: you've apologized, please pack your bags and go. I mean,
- 40:10Speaker 2: I know that you got to the finals Conference finals
- 40:13Speaker 2: a year ago. Let's face it, you didn't even realize
- 40:15Speaker 2: Haliburton was as good as he was when you drafted him,
- 40:18Speaker 2: and so I don't know. I mean, they have just
- 40:21Speaker 2: opened the door to all of us to criticize them,
- 40:24Speaker 2: because those are some really awful professional general manager sports
- 40:30Speaker 2: trades right there.
- 40:31Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 40:31Speaker 1: Well, and when the Pacers gym made that apology to
- 40:33Speaker 1: and was saying, you know, yeah, it was a risk,
- 40:36Speaker 1: probably one we shouldn't have taken, It's like, how did
- 40:39Speaker 1: you not did you not have anyone that looked over
- 40:42Speaker 1: everything and said, well, wait a minute, yeah, we're trying
- 40:44Speaker 1: to make this very very specific, and we're not setting
- 40:46Speaker 1: ourselves up to be lucky. But and then he well,
- 40:50Speaker 1: and he even said, and we just hoped that it
- 40:52Speaker 1: was about time for some luck to come our way.
- 40:54Speaker 4: So you're making.
- 40:55Speaker 1: Trades right, based off luck, based off thinking, well, we're
- 40:58Speaker 1: do some luck.
