  Speaker 1: Thursday morning, six thirty. Great to have you a board.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: No Bucky Jacobson today or for the rest of the week.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: According to reports, farting on a mountain that's what we Yeah, yeah,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: that's the rumor out there. He's just gone to a
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: nomadic existence, eating beans and not being in touch.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: With the rest of the world.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: He is not even heating them up either. You're eating
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: them straight out the can.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: That's the if. That's If that makes you happy, you
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: go for it, buddy.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: That's right, buddy.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're just all about you. You know, you never
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: know what really makes people tick. Doesn't sound like a.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Great life to me.
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: Just don't come back here, Like if you've decided I'm
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: going to be a nomad up in the mountains for
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: a week and then I'm going to go back to
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: the studio.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: You didn't have to explain it. You could have just
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: stopped this. Just don't come back here.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, you could have stopped right there, stay away.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Highlight that. Let Mike Benton run a promo.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: So today it's Ashley and I and yes, the pajama
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: party gets going today. We've got our first official combine
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: workouts and again again, I feel like I have to
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: explain this every single time. I think less and less
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: teams are pouring their interest into the actual NFL Combine workouts.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: I think they evaluate players in different ways. There is
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: some information, they don't ignore the information, but it sounds
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: like it's more about the interviews and the medicals, and
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: it sounds like now the combine is more about an
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: opportunity to meet for a pajama party and not really
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: wear pajamas. It's really to get there and talk about
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: trades and free agents and make contact with agents and
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: things of that nature. So sort of lay the ground
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: work for the moves that they're getting to make via
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: free agency and and so on and so forth. But
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: certainly there's some information to glean from the next four
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: days of workouts, and for us draft nuts, especially for
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: a guy that everybody calls father, Draftmas.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Really makes me blush.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I'm gonna use the next four days to
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: really familiarize myself because I didn't watch every single college
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: football game.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, it's hard to do that, it turns out, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: So what can we see today now that the pajama
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: party gets started. Guys will be working out in their
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: pajamas forty times, what have you. Well, it's going to
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: be the defensive ends, it's going to be the linebackers,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: defensive tackles. So defensive linemen and linebackers will work out today.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: And so if you are looking for a couple of
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: guys to keep an eye on, I'm running this through
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the prism of the Seahawks have the thirty second pick
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: in the draft, and then I think they're going to
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: move out of that spot because they only have four
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: draft picks, and there's no way that John Schneider is
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: going to accept only drafting four players this year, or
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: at least that's his mo. Yeah, there was a time
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: where he did declare, I don't really like this draft
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: all that much, and he ended up not moving around
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the board as much. So maybe he'll do that this year.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, he does have his first second in his third,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: so maybe we'll just stand pat.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: I don't know, that'd be weird.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it is out.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Of his character, and that thirty second spot in the
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: draft could be appealing to some people, and that is
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: something that we'll talk about later in the show. Right now,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: let's talk about who's working out today, cause you know,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Creig Bell told us yesterday that of all the six
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: big name free agents that the Seahawks have, he thinks
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: that boy A Mafe is the most likely to be
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: leaving the organization. So you're losing an edge rusher. And
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: what do people always say? You can't have enough edge rushers.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: So if you're going to draft one anyway and you're
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: subtracting one from the roster, then I got to believe
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: that the Seahawks are going to have the binochy lars
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: out to check out defensive ends and edge rushers and
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: seek a replacement for boy A Mafe, And I think
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: they'd be doing it anyway just to seek that depth.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: So I should say this about the positions that are
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: working out today. Everybody's describing this year's draft is a
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: bad one, not even an average one. They're saying there's
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: a bad draft compared to ones in the past. But
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: where it is strong is the two lines, the offensive
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: lineman and the defensive linemen. That's where the strength resides
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: in this year's draft. And if the games are one
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: in the trenches, and everybody tells me that the sensor
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: day one in the trenches, then if those two positions
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: are strong, those two groups are strong, then there's some
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: strength to extract from this draft. I was looking at
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: PFF's rankings of the defensive linemen and what stood out
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: to me about their rankings was how many front seven
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: guys that they have ranked highly for this draft. I mean,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: they have five of their top twenty one are edge rushers,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: twelve projected edge rusher just edge rushers, and the first
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: two rounds twelve six defensive tackles they have projected in
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: the first two rounds, and six linebackers projected to go
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: in the first two rounds. So you think about sixty
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: four picks in the first two rounds, and Pro Football
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Focus says that there are twenty four that are in
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the front seven that will be working out today. Twenty
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: four of the top sixty four players will be working
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: out today starting at noon, and so to me this
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: is sort of a must watch.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: But then again, i'm father Draftmas and you're not.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: That's true, and so so this this is where a
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: lot of the talent's going to be aligned for this
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: upcoming draft. And in terms of a couple of guys
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: that maybe are going to be at thirty two or
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I think more likely drop into the second round where
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: John Schneider trades back. Zion Young of Missouri is somebody
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: to keep an eye on. They just highlighted him this
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: morning on Sports Center six five sixty two. Keep in
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: mind what we're replacing in a boy a mafe is
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: a six foot three inch two hundred and sixty pound
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: edge rusher. So and one of the reasons that Greg
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: said that maybe the Seahawks aren't going to fight to
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: keep Mafey is that they don't feel that he is
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: very effective as a run defender. And Mike McDonald and
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: his defense, he wants guys that cannot only. He doesn't
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: want you to be some one trick pony in his defense.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: You've got to be able, and you should be able
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: to not be a weakness in one aspect of the
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: of your game, even if you flourish in the other
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: aspect of the game. And I'm not sure Mafey ever
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: got to the point where he flourished as a pass rusher.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: So if you're looking to improve that with a more
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: well rounded edge rusher number one, you're probably looking for
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: somebody of that size, and that Zion Young six sixty
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: two is in that size and somebody that actually is
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: effective in both defending the pass and the run. So
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: that's somebody to think about. And then I'll stay in
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the Midwest. I'll just jump over a state if you
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: don't mind, and go to Illinois. Gabe acis spelled Jacs
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: was outstanding for the Fighting a LIONI this past year.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: He's a little more stout, he's six' three and two seventy,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: five but he is a football, player and he might
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: not grade out so well in these workouts here. Today
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: BUT i Think mike, McDonald i don't Think mike McDonald
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: sacrifices those. Things think he values those. Things BUT i
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: think most importantly to him as he wants football players
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: who love the, game AND i think he finds those
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: guys easier to mold than the athletic freaks that are
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: only somewhat interested in becoming.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Great, yeah that's a good way to describe, IT i. Think.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah so those are a couple of names to look out.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: For but it should be a great day if you're
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: into this sort of. Thing to See Ruben, bain to
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: See David, bailey who Kept Texas tech in that game
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Against oregon by. Himself Casius howel From TEXAS a and
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: M Keldric falk Of. Auburn almost all the experts have
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: those four guys ranked in their top fifteen players in this.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Draft and then you've also got like A. Tj parker
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: From clemson and in A Keen mesidor out Of miami
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: who are not consistently ranked as mid first. Rounders some
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: are some places you see them slipping even into the second.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Round but those are two guys that could fall into
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: That seahawk pleasure.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Zone for Drafting seahawks. Pleasure.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah so it sounds, tantalizing sounds, erotic is what it.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Does but that's draft miss for. You takes on a
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: lot of different.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Forms i'm learning that every.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Year sometimes you're just moved by the spirit of it
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: and you just want to hug. Mom and sometimes it
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: turns you on and you want to.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: You, know and we've reached that point.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Today, yeah and you want to kiss the, neighbor you,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Know that's What that's what happens with the. Draft it's very, unpredictable.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: From hugging mom to kissing the.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Name, yeah you can have.
• 9:04

  Speaker 1: a loss to a Good Dallas stars. Team there was
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: some discussion about how they had more players in The,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: olympics so maybe they'll be a little more, fatigued a
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: little more banged up than what The kracking, Are and

  Speaker 8: he was mobbed on the plane from in the terminal On.
• 15:34
  Speaker 8: Monday he took a commercial, flight not a team flight of,
• 15:37
  Speaker 8: course so took a commercial flight From seattle To indianapolis and,
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: said you got mobbed in SeaTac.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Airport he got mobbed in the.
• 15:44
  Speaker 8: Plane the flight attendants kept coming by on the front
• 15:47
  Speaker 8: of the plane where he was sitting to say, hi
• 15:49
  Speaker 8: congraduate him and thank.
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: Him so that's.
• 15:51
  Speaker 8: Different so it's not the same as the last. Time
• 15:55
  Speaker 8: we'd spoken to him at the, parade but for the
• 15:58
  Speaker 8: football of, it he probably newsworthy, thing he. Said Zach
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: sharviney had his knee surgery last. Weekend when you tear an,
• 16:06
  Speaker 8: acl it takes weeks for the swelling to go down
• 16:08
  Speaker 8: to the point that you could even have, surgery and
• 16:11
  Speaker 8: that process to almost five. Weeks sarvony got injured in
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: The division round clayoff game against the forty nine ers
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: and then surgery last, weekend and we asked, McDonald what
• 16:21
  Speaker 8: do we Have The seahawks have a timetable and When
• 16:23
  Speaker 8: sarveny might be able to come. Back that's usually eight
• 16:26
  Speaker 8: to twelve months recovery, time which would put him Into
• 16:28
  Speaker 8: September October november after the next season. Starts and McDonald
• 16:33
  Speaker 8: said it's more optimistic than it was initially um quoting there.
• 16:36
  Speaker 8: Directly so that's exciting on being able to come back
• 16:40
  Speaker 8: at an earlier. Time so that how does that affect
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: The seahawks for the? Now, well we've talked About Kenneth
• 16:47
  Speaker 8: walker situation and whether The seahorks will have a lead
• 16:51
  Speaker 8: running back if they don't resign The Super BOWL mvp
• 16:54
  Speaker 8: because Of sharbonny's. Injury it sounds like they can't count
• 16:58
  Speaker 8: On starviny to be back at the start of the.
• 17:00
  Speaker 8: Season so you still have a big issue if you
• 17:03
  Speaker 8: Let walker walk out the door and even an optimistic recovery.
• 17:09
  Speaker 8: Time And John schneider said the day, BEFORE i wouldn't
• 17:12
  Speaker 8: rule anything out With sharbonnay and his. Work it's not
• 17:15
  Speaker 8: like he's going to be ready to go to start
• 17:16
  Speaker 8: a training camp and wrap up and test that. Knee
• 17:19
  Speaker 8: so it does complicate what they may have been willing
• 17:23
  Speaker 8: originally to ok For walker versus what they may now
• 17:26
  Speaker 8: we're willing to pay up to because if they don't Resign,
• 17:30
  Speaker 8: walker it looks like Sharbon an won't be. Back maybe
• 17:34
  Speaker 8: it's the most optimistic till the start of next.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: Season.

• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Coach how in step and obviously very much in step
• 19:28

• 19:32
  Speaker 1: of you, know a few months when they first got,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: together of you, know trying to adapt to the type
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: of guys That mike McDonald needed for his. Defense and
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: now you've won a Super, Bowl what's what is the?
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: Process?
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: LIKE i, mean Does john now get What mike McDonald
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: needs and so he goes out and gets, it or
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Is mike McDonald right there in his ear at all
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: times saying that guy not that, guy that guy not that.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Guy, well the.
• 20:00
  Speaker 8: Biggest, Difference, chuck between year one and year two Of
• 20:03
  Speaker 8: mike McDonald's regime was that The John schnyder personnel and scouting,
• 20:07
  Speaker 8: staff drafting staff.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Knew what McDonald.
• 20:10
  Speaker 8: Wanted they didn't know in twenty twenty four because McDonald
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: didn't come to the. Combine he wasn't very intricately involved
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: in the draft process and the evaluating the pro days
• 20:21
  Speaker 8: because he was still hiring his own coaching staff and
• 20:24
  Speaker 8: figuring out a plan to practice and train from the
• 20:27
  Speaker 8: offseason into training. Camp he spent his whole spring doing
• 20:30
  Speaker 8: that while the other side of the, building the football
• 20:34
  Speaker 8: side of the, building the drafting and, scouting, well going
• 20:38
  Speaker 8: off what they thought and maybe what McDonald told him he.
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: Needed then they saw McDonald's defense in. Action then they, saw,
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: oh he needs a middle linebacker that is stout enough
• 20:48
  Speaker 8: that when he hits guys that go straight to the.
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: Ground let's go Get Ernest. Jones, oh he likes multiplicity
• 20:53
  Speaker 8: in his defensive, backs so it can play five and
• 20:55
  Speaker 8: six defensive backs and Base let's go trade up seventeen,
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: spots go, scout and eventually Draft nick Eimun.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Worry that took a year plus and so.
• 21:07
  Speaker 8: Now when they come to the, combine it isn't McDonald
• 21:11
  Speaker 8: needing to sit over the scouts in the personnel guy's
• 21:13
  Speaker 8: shoulders saying, no this is my type of.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Guy look at this.
• 21:16
  Speaker 8: Guy now they know and they've seen it work to
• 21:20
  Speaker 8: the elite, level the best in the sport to win
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: A Super. Bowl so after fifteen years Of Pete carroll
• 21:25
  Speaker 8: and the way he drafted and wanted players for his,
• 21:28
  Speaker 8: program after two years now they know this will be
• 21:31
  Speaker 8: the third draft process that they're going through With mike.
• 21:34
  Speaker 8: McDonald their leaps and bounds ahead of when McDonald first
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: took over because they've seen it on the. Field they
• 21:41
  Speaker 8: don't even need McDonald to tell him what he. Wants
• 21:44
  Speaker 8: they can see the results of the guys they brought
• 21:46
  Speaker 8: in the last year and a.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: Half greg bellis with.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: Us he's In indianapolis for THE nfl, combine but really
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: to chat with The john Schnein Er mike. McDonald if
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: you want to read his most recent articles From, indianapolis
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: do so at The newstribune dot com and you can
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: Follow greg g Bel seattle ON X, yesterday we got
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: around finally to talking about Boy A. Mafe what About
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: josh job And Rik. Woolan how big a priorities are
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: these two guys.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: To be back In seahawk uniforms next?
• 22:14
  Speaker 8: Year, well of, Course John Schnyder mike McDonald is saying
• 22:19
  Speaker 8: we won everyone, back but that just doesn't happen in THE.
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: Nfl you they are they regulate against that with the
• 22:26
  Speaker 8: salary cap and the, market free agency and multiple bids,
• 22:30
  Speaker 8: going and it's just it's not going to. Happen it
• 22:34
  Speaker 8: will be much easier for The seahawks to bring Back Josh,
• 22:37
  Speaker 8: joe a former waiver pickup from The. Eagles then it
• 22:40
  Speaker 8: will Be Preak wollen six, four two hundred pound run
• 22:43
  Speaker 8: like the win Long arms has already been in The Pro,
• 22:46
  Speaker 8: bowl has played ninety percent of his snaps over four.
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: Seasons the tape is out there On, woolen and his
• 22:53
  Speaker 8: physical skills alone are so enticing to anybody that if
• 22:57
  Speaker 8: he gets to the Market march, NINTH i think he's,
• 22:59
  Speaker 8: gone AND i think his price will be way too
• 23:01
  Speaker 8: high than what The seahawks would want to, pay or
• 23:04
  Speaker 8: else they would have offered him something he'd already liked by.
• 23:06
  Speaker 9: Now not so with.
• 23:07
  Speaker 8: Job Kobe bryant is another guy that will not be
• 23:11
  Speaker 8: too difficult because The seahawks know him better than. Anybody,
• 23:14
  Speaker 8: homegrown tried him at, corner tried him a, nickel now
• 23:17
  Speaker 8: found at home at, safety and McDonald loves HIM i
• 23:20
  Speaker 8: think it's much more likely That brian And job come
• 23:23
  Speaker 8: back than it is Wo wolan will probably sign a
• 23:26
  Speaker 8: contract that annual value when the free agent market is
• 23:29
  Speaker 8: higher than Both job And bryant. Combined so you get
• 23:34
  Speaker 8: two for the price of one by keeping those two
• 23:36
  Speaker 8: and Letting woolan. GO i think THAT'S i know that
• 23:41
  Speaker 8: they tried to, trade or at least they talked about
• 23:44
  Speaker 8: possibly trading wooland during the season they shopped him around
• 23:46
  Speaker 8: to see what offers they could if they didn't get
• 23:48
  Speaker 8: much of any. Offers if woman does, work it won't
• 23:52
  Speaker 8: help him this draft when they may have. Four but that's,
• 23:54
  Speaker 8: okay Because George schnyder said this draft's not any good
• 23:57
  Speaker 8: in so many, words and we knew, that and that's
• 23:59
  Speaker 8: why you only have four picks in. It but If woolen,
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: leaves it's probably a third, round maybe a fourth, round
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: but probably a third round commentatory pick next year in
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: twenty twenty, seven depending on how many others they, sign
• 24:11
  Speaker 8: and all the calculus of coming and going free agent
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: sign exist String BUT i just Think wolan's priced themselves
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: out of the market by going to the. Market and
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: AGAIN i keep saying, this but if you're a mid
• 24:23
  Speaker 8: twenty year old twenty four to twenty five year old
• 24:25
  Speaker 8: guy twenty, Six Kenneth, Twalker, requillen and that your team
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: that drafted you is let you get this far to the,
• 24:32
  Speaker 8: market days away from the market opening your.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: Testament.
• 24:35
  Speaker 8: Yeah and In woolen's case and In walker's, case that
• 24:38
  Speaker 8: they're testing the, market they're going to get multiple bids
• 24:40
  Speaker 8: and drive up their.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: Price so of the, six all, Right so and then
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: these are the six AS i see, It, Walker, Shaheed, Mafe,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Woolen job And. Bryant IF i set the under at
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: three and a, half you know guys coming, back would
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: you go over or under three and a half of those?
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: Six i'd go three of those.
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: SIX i don't Think mafay's coming. BACK i asked McDonald
• 25:10
  Speaker 8: off the podium yesterday About mafay and how he fits his.
• 25:13
  Speaker 8: Defense he said he played much better than his statistics.
• 25:16
  Speaker 8: Say he, said of course he would have let more,
• 25:18
  Speaker 8: sacks but that he was his quickest to pressure guy
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: on the. Edge he used that metric in that. Term
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: he sounded like he would like to keep. THEM i
• 25:30
  Speaker 8: don't know that they're going to that's someone that they
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: inherited The snyder drafted before McDonald got.
• 25:36
  Speaker 9: Here, again for.
• 25:38
  Speaker 6: The REASONS i just stayed.
• 25:39
  Speaker 8: EARLIER i Think walker and will and will. LEAVE i
• 25:41
  Speaker 8: think they're not likely to Resign. Mafay so there's three
• 25:44
  Speaker 8: of your six you just. MENTIONED i would be very,
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: Surprised chuck If rashichi he doesn't resign within the next
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: week or. SO i think that's the easiest for them to.
• 25:54
  Speaker 8: Do he wants to come, back his value to the special,
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: teams his love for the special team program here In Jay,
• 26:01
  Speaker 8: harbaugh how he used, them Loves, harba loves him and
• 26:04
  Speaker 8: talks a lot about. That it was like two or
• 26:07
  Speaker 8: three days after he got, Here shaheed that he's talking
• 26:09
  Speaker 8: about retiring here in his mid. Twenties that's how much
• 26:13
  Speaker 8: it was better Than New orleans that he had come.
• 26:14
  Speaker 8: From The seahawks Have Tory horton coming, back and McDonald
• 26:19
  Speaker 8: mentioned yesterday that, Yes horton is on track to be
• 26:21
  Speaker 8: able to start a training, camp so they have their deep,
• 26:24
  Speaker 8: threat fast wide receiver guy to just be on, offense
• 26:29
  Speaker 8: while they can also Have shaheed do that in spots With,
• 26:33
  Speaker 8: horton but yet to Have shaheed be their primary kick.
• 26:36
  Speaker 8: Returner so unlike in the open, market where teams will
• 26:39
  Speaker 8: try to Sign shahed as a receiver and a kick,
• 26:42
  Speaker 8: returner The seahawks have a much more defined role for,
• 26:45
  Speaker 8: him and maybe that will drive his prides down towards
• 26:48
  Speaker 8: more something. Better that The seahawks would like to have
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: more team friendly cap number for this. Year BUT i
• 26:53
  Speaker 8: just see it as With shaheed being not that hard
• 26:56
  Speaker 8: to do compared to Say, walker.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: All, right anything else that we should, know anything else
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: THAT i wouldn't even know to ask you that has
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: popped up In.
• 27:05
  Speaker 8: Indianapolis, Well mike McDonald said yesterday that The seahawks have
• 27:10
  Speaker 8: not been invited to The White, house not. Yet the
• 27:13
  Speaker 8: expect his expectation is we're going to get, invited, Right
• 27:16
  Speaker 8: that's what he. Said That that's how it, works was his.
• 27:18
  Speaker 8: Words And i've been told by multiple people here with
• 27:22
  Speaker 8: The seahawks in the league that if The White house
• 27:25

• 27:27

• 32:03
  Speaker 1: mariner spring. Training last week we did Our mariner spring training.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Coverage we were really happy with how it worked, out
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: and yet there were some things that spilled over into this,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: week some things THAT i learned that it led to
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: a number of. Conversations as a matter of, fact here
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: on This, thursday we are to WHAT i learned at
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: spring training part six here, today and WHAT i learned
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: at spring training was That Colt emerson And Cole young
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: both have a shot at making this team out of spring,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: training both of. Them this isn't A young Or emerson's situation.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: Here this is a chance where they're giving the flexibility
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: THAT i mean.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Right out Of Justin hollander's.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: Mouth Cole young is a heavy front runner to be
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: our starting second, baseman And Colt emerson is going to
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: be given the opportunity to win a job out of spring.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Training that's that's right out Of jerry And justin's. Mouths
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: so usually you try to limit the expectations on your
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: young player's twenty year old prospects who are trying to
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: make it their way through the. System but that's just
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: not the way that they are. Operating odds are they're
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: not both going to be on the opening day, roster
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: but there is a chance that they will. Be and,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Yesterday buster only through his investigative reporting FROM, espn he
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: said that you can expect Cold emerson to be up
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, six early in twenty twenty, six like
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: the first quarter of the. Season he Thinks emerson is
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: so advanced and The mariners are so excited about what
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: he's going to bring to the table that he could
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: be up By may, fifteenth that's just six weeks into the.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Season that's sort of the expectation that only has after
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: kicking the tires on the Cold emerson story so far
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: at spring. Training and if they're going to do, that
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: you know they're not activating, him so we need to
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: get his career. Going they're trying to win A World
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: series this, year they're the favorite to win The American.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: League if The mariners are activating Cold emerson at any
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: time this, season Or Las, montes who we pointed out
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: in a conversation yesterday that was part, five then that
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: means they believe that Cold emerson is better than somebody
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: that they're giving every day opportunities. To, okay and that's
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: a veteran which we'll get to in a, Moment but
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: if they activate Cold emerson By may, fifteenth that is
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: we believe he makes our lineup. Better not because, oh
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: let's get his clock. STARTED i, mean let's good.
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: TIME i feel bad for the.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Kid he's gonna start, slow so let's get some of
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: those you, know let's get that adjustment period out of the.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: Way no, no, no, no, no, no, no not that kind of.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Year if Cold emerson is activated By may, fifteenth it's
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: because the organization is, like this guy's better than one
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: of the nine.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: That we're play playing every day right.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: Now he makes us, better and we're gonna put him
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: in an opportunity.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: To help us become a better. Offense and the same.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Thing If Las montes gets activated at some point in the,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: season there will be no, opportunity not in a championship
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: window where you're just, like let's get him some at.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: Bats.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: Nope if Las montes is, activated it means we think
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: he's major league, ready and if he's major league, ready
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: we have expectations for him to produce and produce at
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: what he does hitting home runs and driving in. Runs,
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: yeah fifty of? Them, okay, yeah, yeah that's. Aggressive but
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: you know what high high GOALS i. Suppose, now so
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: what happens even if it's not Opening? Day what if
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: it Is may, Fifteenth, well now we got to figure
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: out who's standing in the way of right who gets left?
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Out if Both emerson And young and that's that's really the.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: Ambition they want them both in this lineup before the
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: season comes to a. Close if Both Emerson young are
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: in the everyday starting, lineup who's that going to?
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: COST i, mean is that A Luke? Rayley is that
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: a dom canzone with?
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Options is That Rob reschneider who you just, signed or
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: is It Victor roeblitz is one of those?
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: FOUR i, mean injuries can sometimes when they're part of the.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: GAME i don't have to knock on. Wood they're part
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: of the, game and sometimes injuries in the, spring take
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: care of roster number, crunches no question about. It but
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: let's just play. Along if there is a chance that
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Both emerson And young have been determined by the, organization
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: they make us better by being in the lineup every.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Day they're gonna take it bats from, somebody and it's
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: going to be a.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: Veteran AND i do.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: WONDER i, Mean Luke, rayley we didn't talk a lot
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: about in spring, training but he does look. Good he looks,
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: Fit he looks better than what he's looked in either
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: of his year with The Seattle. Mariners so he obviously
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: tried to get refocused this offseason on having a better
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: year after having a good year in twenty twenty. Four
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: he had a terrible year in twenty twenty, five and
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: he's gonna try to bounce back this.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Year BUT i, mean is it a.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: Foregone conclusion he makes it all the way through the.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: Season if he gets off to a slow, start is
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: he the guy that gets. POPPED i, mean it's a
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: left handed bat for a left handed, bat And emerson's
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: probably gonna play the. Field, Yeah so that would Be
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: young at, second and that would Be emerson at, third
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: and then all of a, Sudden Brandon, donovan who's gonna
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Be Brendan, donovan who's going to be in the lineup every.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Day he suddenly is not your everyday third, baseman but
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: he is your super utility. Guy and there's a difference
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: between a utility guy and a super utility. Guy utility
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: guys Are Dylan, moore where they can play any position
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: that you need to give a rest to someone or
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: fill in for a stretch of time for an injured
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: player at a certain. Position, no a super utility player
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: is a guy that plays every. Day he just might
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: play a different position every. Day my play right field one,
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Game my play left field one. Game if you got
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: rid Of, rayleigh And i'm not saying they're thinking about doing,
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: that but he'd probably have to be your backup first
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: baseman To Josh, naylor probably is gonna Be Brendan donovan
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: at that. Point so, yeah it does make you think
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: who gets. Caught is It roadblade who's on a one year.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: Deal it might be. Him it's hard for me to
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: believe Ref niner is not going to be on this
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: team this year after making that investment this. Offseason so
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: my guess is it's Either canzone Or. Raley and Because
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: kenzone has, options if you're going to Activate, emerson and
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: then all of a, sudden you'll have to make the
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: decision if do we want to keep both guys in the,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: organization and if we do, that we got to Send canzone,
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: down or do we say goodbye To Luke.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: RALEY i, mean THAT'S i do.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: Too but that's the great thing about getting to this
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: point where you've got all of these young player on the,
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: come and you also have a what you believe is
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: A World series roster without those young. Players and so
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: that's the numbers crunch that we're going to have to
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: experience this. Year And i'll add one more wrinkle to.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: THIS i mean it's, early and it's early in spring,
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: training which means this point is pretty much. Laughable but
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: the hottest hitter so far in the spring Is Brennan,
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: davis who was a former Top cubs prospect who had some,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: injuries fell out of, favor suddenly became free and, available
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: and The mariners signed. Him so good luck an athlete
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: saw him up close and. Personal good lug an athlete
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: outfielder who The cubs thought was going to be special
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: at one point it's not and it's still like twenty
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: four years. Old Brennan davis is killing the ball so
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: far this. Spring you, know you don't want to lose,
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: him right then somebody else, loses some other. Veteran you
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: gotta find a spot for. Him and so that's another
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: name to. KEEP i, MEAN i don't think that's a viable.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: THREAT i, mean we are talking about just a few
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: spring training. Games i'm just pointing out the fact that
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: if you do find yourself at the end of spring
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: or By may fifteen, thinking oh, gosh this young player
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: is forcing our, hand he's forcing his way into, lineup into,
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: reps into it bats at the major league level to
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: make us, better then it comes at the cost of someone.
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Else and SO i don't know how much looking over
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: the shoulder there is right, now but there's no secret
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: down In mariners' spring. Training they all recognize the young,
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: talent hitting talent particularly that is on its way to
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: the major, leagues and they also recognize The mariners are
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: not going to hold those guys back when they're. Ready they're,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: ready they're gonna, play and it's going to cost some
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: veteran who's not carrying his, weight his spot on this.
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: Roster, well hopefully that's a motivating factor and everyone's carrying their.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Weight, yeah, well well that's all you can. Do control
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: what you can.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Do play your, best make it impossible for them to
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: take you out of the, lineup make it impossible for
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: you them to take you out off the.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: Roster everybody's going to be doing. THAT i love the.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: Competition Pete carroll will get a kick out of. It
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: but that's that's where it is right. Now and it's
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: a beautiful.
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: Problem that. Is it's not a.
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: PROBLEM i was going to, say THAT'S i, mean that's
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: your ultimate dream scenario right there is the middle players
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: can't even come up because your team is just performing so.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: Well they're in the middle of their ultimate dream scenario right.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: Now they feel like they have finally achieved that balance
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: between present day and the future to really rock this
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: thing for the next ten.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: Years it's an awesome problem to, have but it could
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: result in a difficult farewell or two before the end
• 41:52

  Speaker 1: Handle indiana becoming a.
• 43:49

  Speaker 9: Because, no, really it's for for Decades indiana football has been,
• 43:59
  Speaker 9: MISERABLE i, mean just. Awful they get the occasional one
• 44:02
  Speaker 9: off bowl game or, something but you, know they could
• 44:06
  Speaker 9: go then what they win by twenty three or four
• 44:08
  Speaker 9: games in the last two. Years they could, go you,
• 44:11
  Speaker 9: know six years without winning that many, games and it's
• 44:14
  Speaker 9: just been it's just hard to wrap your head around
• 44:17
  Speaker 9: the speed with which that turnaround, happened WHICH i guess
• 44:22
  Speaker 9: is really the peak illustration of how all of the
• 44:30
  Speaker 9: money now in college, athletics especially going to the players
• 44:34
  Speaker 9: where you can build a, roster you, know compete for
• 44:36
  Speaker 9: a national championship from literally dirt to national champion in two.
• 44:41
  Speaker 9: Years is like a prime example of what the new
• 44:45
  Speaker 9: era of college athletics can.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: Do do you not like? It and if, so is
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: it Because indiana got?
• 44:52
  Speaker 9: GOOD i would never root for. Them that's against my,
• 44:56
  Speaker 9: religion so you, know, SO i guess you, KNOW i
• 45:00
  Speaker 9: don't like it in that. Regard it's just a it's
• 45:03
  Speaker 9: such an illustrative story though it's a remarkable story, really so,
• 45:08
  Speaker 9: yeah but, NO i. WOULD i was not rooting for
• 45:10
  Speaker 9: them in any of their games this, year And i've you,
• 45:13
  Speaker 9: know BUT i don't bet on them against them either
• 45:15
  Speaker 9: because it's not that.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: Much, well and not to make this about your, fandom
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: because you're this conversation is so much more about. That
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: but you do have them in, BASKETBALL i, mean The
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: purdue program and basketball just continues to roll along here
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: in the modern. Day they started the season at number one,
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: overall they're still twenty two and five ranked what number
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: eight in THE ap pole at this. Stage how good
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: a basketball team are you rooting for these?
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: Days?
• 45:43
  Speaker 9: Yeah they're very, good and it's maybe the only team
• 45:47
  Speaker 9: in the top ten twelve that isn't relying on. Freshmen
• 45:53
  Speaker 9: it's like a star. Freshman it's a veteran. Team Brayden
• 45:57
  Speaker 9: smith probably going to be the point guard of the
• 46:01
  Speaker 9: year again with a pre Season National player of The
• 46:04
  Speaker 9: year before we saw how great all these freshmen, were
• 46:07
  Speaker 9: and it's been an amazing year for the freshman class
• 46:09
  Speaker 9: in college. Basketball but you, know he's obviously the, star
• 46:15
  Speaker 9: but there are two other veteran players Tray Coffin wren
• 46:17
  Speaker 9: in the post And Fledger lawyer shooting, guard that are you,
• 46:21
  Speaker 9: know really the steady hand that. Guides you, know they
• 46:25
  Speaker 9: do doesn't depend much on, freshmen the backups or sophomores
• 46:28
  Speaker 9: and you, know juniors for the most. Part but it's
• 46:33
  Speaker 9: a it's an experienced team that knows how to get
• 46:37
  Speaker 9: to the final four because their leaders and anybody who's
• 46:40
  Speaker 9: been on the team more than two years has done.
• 46:41
  Speaker 9: It so it's there'll be a danger In march because
• 46:47
  Speaker 9: you're not gonna be able to show him something they
• 46:49
  Speaker 9: haven't already seen.
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: Somewhere Jerry palmer is WITH us College basketball writer for years.
• 46:54
  Speaker 8: NOW.
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: Paulm brackets Dot com our annual conversation with him to
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: sort of set up the rest of the college basketball
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: season and get you ready For March madness right here
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: On chuck And buck AND i think About March, madness
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: AND i Put purdue into this category with a few other.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: TEAMS i won't say a lot of other. Teams it
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: feels very top heavy this. Year i'm normally somebody THAT
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: i just don't think it's in the spirit of filling
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: out a bracket to just go with. Chalk but, man
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: it's going to be hard for me to put anything
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: lower than a two or three seed into a final
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: four this. Year it feels very top. Heavy AM i
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: right about? That or maybe there's some correction to my?
• 47:35
  Speaker 9: Analysis you might want to go a little deeper than,
• 47:39
  Speaker 9: that because there's going to be some really good four seeded,
• 47:42
  Speaker 9: teams and you could see a team like The kansas
• 47:45
  Speaker 9: as a, four And, kansas When Darren peterson is playing and,
• 47:49
  Speaker 9: healthy they could win the whole, thing and you know
• 47:53
  Speaker 9: that wouldn't be even a little bit of a. Surprise,
• 47:57
  Speaker 9: alabama it has played a vicious schedule this, year taken
• 48:02
  Speaker 9: on all. Comers they have won several of those, games
• 48:04
  Speaker 9: but not enough to maybe get much higher than a
• 48:07
  Speaker 9: four unless they win the A sec. Tournament that's another
• 48:10
  Speaker 9: team that could end up as a, four that is
• 48:13
  Speaker 9: capable of winning the whole. Thing BUT i think you can.
• 48:16
  Speaker 9: Go you can go fourteen to fifteen teams. Deep The
• 48:20
  Speaker 9: Big ten is gonna have Some i'm not sure that
• 48:22
  Speaker 9: they're all gonna be top four, teams But, Purdue, Illinois Michigan.
• 48:25
  Speaker 9: State when you get beyond you, know Say, michigan you
• 48:30
  Speaker 9: know there's some teams there that you could win a
• 48:32
  Speaker 9: national championship as. Well SO i think it's pretty deep
• 48:35
  Speaker 9: this year in terms of potential national champion. Teams but you're.
• 48:38
  Speaker 9: RIGHT i, mean all the, ones all the, twos all
• 48:41
  Speaker 9: the threes easily will be able to do it and
• 48:44
  Speaker 9: almost no matter who those teams. Are but there's probably
• 48:46
  Speaker 9: gonna be a couple of fours that you can put
• 48:48
  Speaker 9: on that list as.
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: Well but we probably won't see The cinderella fifteen.
• 48:52
  Speaker 9: Seed it's gonna be tough this. Year, yeah, yeah it's
• 48:56
  Speaker 9: gonna it's gonna have to be a team on a special.
• 48:58
  Speaker 9: Run but you never. Know you can get a team
• 49:01
  Speaker 9: like SAY. Dyu NOW i feel better about Before saunders got.
• 49:05
  Speaker 9: Hurt but you know they've got a star freshman, too
• 49:09
  Speaker 9: The bonsas you, know he's capable of carrying that team
• 49:13
  Speaker 9: deep into a tournament like, this and so they might
• 49:16
  Speaker 9: be an outside shot at A final four kind of.
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: Team let's talk about that because that's been a major
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: story this college basketball, season how good this freshman class.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: Is and of course freshmen out bound straight to THE.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: Nba so we're seeing a record setting tanking situation going
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: on in THE nba this year because it's not just
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: about getting the number one. Pick these teams in THE,
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: nba they're like ten or twelve of them that are
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: trying to get as high as they can in the
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: lottery to get one of these. Freshmen so talk about
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: the freshman. Class are we talking about something historic?
• 49:48
  Speaker 9: Here? YEAH i don't know THAT i have enough sense
• 49:53
  Speaker 9: of that to say for sure that it's the sort
• 49:56
  Speaker 9: Of i'm going to say you, this, certainly if it's
• 49:59
  Speaker 9: not the best top of a freshman class that we've,
• 50:01
  Speaker 9: had it's the best ONE i remember over at least a.
• 50:04
  Speaker 9: DECADE i, mean it's just been it's been incredible this freshman.
• 50:08
  Speaker 9: Class and you, know Every MICHIGAN i don't know If
• 50:11
  Speaker 9: michigan they've got a star, freshman but they're not relying
• 50:14
  Speaker 9: on him as much as their. Veterans Like jackelberg is
• 50:18
  Speaker 9: new To, michigan but he's not new to college. Basketball
• 50:21
  Speaker 9: but he could be the national player of the, year
• 50:24
  Speaker 9: even ahead of all of these great. Freshmen but you
• 50:27
  Speaker 9: Know duke, Obviously, Arizona, kansas almost all of the two
• 50:34
  Speaker 9: seed type teams have got star. Freshmen it's it's just
• 50:38
  Speaker 9: it's a, loaded uh freshman. Class arizona it's got, Two
• 50:44
  Speaker 9: houston's got. One, everybody it seems like everybody's got a
• 50:47
  Speaker 9: star freshman that can carry a. Team and that's usually
• 50:50
  Speaker 9: kind of. Waddle you, know AN ntaa tournament winner is
• 50:53
  Speaker 9: going to have it that somebody who can put the
• 50:56
  Speaker 9: team on their back on the night that it's necessary
• 51:00
  Speaker 9: and carry them to the next. Round and your champions
• 51:03
  Speaker 9: almost always have a guy like. That and a lot
• 51:06
  Speaker 9: of these top fifteen sixteen teams have got a guy like,
• 51:09
  Speaker 9: that and a lot of them are, freshmen but they're
• 51:11
  Speaker 9: not all.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: FRESHMEN i, know you can never put the cat back
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: in the.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Bag AND i REALIZE i realized that this has changed
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: that you, know was, inevitable but, BOY i sure do
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: Miss Ralph samson four years At virginia And Patrick ewing
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: four years At georgetown And Michael jordan three years At North. Carolina,
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: yeah just you, know my eyes For Isaiah thomas two
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: years At, indiana you know WHAT i?
• 51:34
  Speaker 9: Mean, well how About Zak ebie four years of?
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: Produce, yeah there you, go that wasn't long.
• 51:40
  Speaker 9: Ago that had ended in twenty four two Time National
• 51:44
  Speaker 9: player of The. Year he might be the last one
• 51:47
  Speaker 9: because you know who's going to win The National player
• 51:50
  Speaker 9: of The year and then not go? Pro, Well Zach
• 51:53
  Speaker 9: edie was kind of a unique guy for THE, nba
• 51:55
  Speaker 9: so it took them a while to warm up to the.
• 51:58
  Speaker 9: Idea but guess winning hit twice was good enough to get,
• 52:02
  Speaker 9: him get him into the top ten of the. Draft but,
• 52:04
  Speaker 9: yeah guys like him. Well and then actually Another purdue.
• 52:07
  Speaker 9: GUY i don't mean to talk About purdue a, lot
• 52:09
  Speaker 9: But Braden smith is another. One you, know he's a
• 52:12
  Speaker 9: guy that could be a first Team All, americans probably
• 52:15
  Speaker 9: going to be the point guard of the year two
• 52:16
  Speaker 9: years in a. Row he's my, height you, know he's
• 52:20
  Speaker 9: five eleven six feet and, uh you, know how do
• 52:23
  Speaker 9: you who do you guard in THE? Nba six foot?
• 52:26
  Speaker 9: Tall it's that's so he's a you, know he's a
• 52:30
  Speaker 9: wizard with the ball in his. Hand but who's he
• 52:31
  Speaker 9: going to be able to guard in THE? Nba AND
• 52:33
  Speaker 9: i wonder if that will hurt his draft stocks just
• 52:36
  Speaker 9: being six foot.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: TALL a long time college basketball, Sage jerry palm our
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: guest here. Today can follow him on x AT Jp
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: palm eighty, five, uh and he's with Palm brackets dot,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: com which you certainly we're gonna check it. Out we're
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: certainly going to check it, out all. RIGHT a little
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: bit on the local front, Here i'm sure you haven't
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: watched a lot Of Washington huskies basketball this. Year they
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: haven't forced their way on under the, radar but this
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: Is gonzaga basketball time up here in The Pacific. Northwest
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: and after maybe at the beginning of the, YEAR i
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: was starting to hear this isn't the this might be
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: a year where they take a step.
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: Back here they Sit jerry at.
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: What twenty seven and two ninth ranked In, america, uh
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: and seem to be playing about as good a basketball
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: as anybody out there so not Named michigan Or duke
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: so give me the low down On gonzaga right.
• 53:30
  Speaker 9: Now, yeah they're very. Good that the want At portland
• 53:35
  Speaker 9: is just it's head. Scratching how does that? Happen that's you,
• 53:41
  Speaker 9: know that's that's it's gonna cost him a seed line
• 53:45
  Speaker 9: in the bracket for what that's. Worth but there's certainly
• 53:48
  Speaker 9: another one of those teams good enough to win the whole,
• 53:50
  Speaker 9: thing and you know they're doing, it you, Know Mark.
• 53:54
  Speaker 9: Hughthway they're not relying on a star freshman or one
• 53:57
  Speaker 9: of those teams that's not relying on one of those you,
• 53:59
  Speaker 9: know for round draft pick freshman. Guys but they're just
• 54:02
  Speaker 9: they're always, solid and solid can sometimes be a pejorative
• 54:07
  Speaker 9: because that means maybe you're not. Talented, no they're talented and.
• 54:10
  Speaker 9: Solid so, yeah they they've got some good wins this.
• 54:14
  Speaker 9: Year alabama is the most. Noteworthy of, course they're going
• 54:16
  Speaker 9: to go To Saint mary's and the regular keeven that's
• 54:18
  Speaker 9: another that's a good team on their schedule In kentucky of,
• 54:21
  Speaker 9: course so a lot of good teams that they've played and,
• 54:23
  Speaker 9: beaten and and so it's been funny because both losses
• 54:28
  Speaker 9: are just head scratching.
• 54:29
  Speaker 6: RESULTS i, Mean, Michigan, Michigan.
• 54:33
  Speaker 9: Michigan, yeah well they were in the non conference, play
• 54:36
  Speaker 9: they were they were laying waste to everybody that they.
• 54:38
  Speaker 9: PLAYED i mean that was probably the worst that they
• 54:41
  Speaker 9: had five or six thirty point wins in non conference
• 54:44
  Speaker 9: play and then they got in the conference play and
• 54:45
  Speaker 9: got a little. Tougher but because you, know familiar, familiarity breach.
• 54:50
  Speaker 9: Contempt but, yeah That michigan. Loss if If i'd watched
• 54:56
  Speaker 9: some of that, game that's it's just like it was
• 54:58
  Speaker 9: just like a no show. Game but maybe that Was michigan,
• 55:01
  Speaker 9: though and Not kndaga And portland, THOUGH i, mean that's That's.
• 55:05
  Speaker 9: Kandaga you just you, know that's just you weren't for
• 55:09
  Speaker 9: whatever reason that the bio rhythms were bad that. Day But, gondaga,
• 55:13
  Speaker 9: CERTAINLY i would be surprised If candaga wasn't A sweet sixteen.
• 55:17
  Speaker 9: Team and then anything beyond that this year is going
• 55:20
  Speaker 9: to be it's gonna take special performances from whoever, wins
• 55:24
  Speaker 9: and a lot of and they're one of those teams
• 55:25
  Speaker 9: capable of those special.
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: Performances for a lot of the reasons that you.
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: STATED i Think michigan is my. PICK i think not
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: having to rely on a freshman to be their best freshman.
• 55:38
  Speaker 9: Guard but HE'S i don't know that he's a first
• 55:39
  Speaker 9: ROUND nba, guy but, yeah. He's, yeah they're, no they're
• 55:42
  Speaker 9: best players are upper.
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: Classmens they're, big they're, long you, know they they've got
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: a superstar on their. Team they've got a few guys
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: that are going to play in THE. Nba they JUST
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: i know they lost a duke here, recently but they
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: to me have been the best team in college basketball
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: this year AND i think the most likely to cut
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: down the.
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: Nets who's what's your team for?
• 56:03
  Speaker 9: That, Yeah i'm leaning Toward michigan as. Well it's their
• 56:08
  Speaker 9: front court is so good and. Big it's it's a
• 56:12
  Speaker 9: big front court that even if you've got like a
• 56:14
  Speaker 9: couple of you, know pretty talented big, guy take that.
• 56:16
  Speaker 9: Three so you're you're, always you, know you're always at
• 56:21
  Speaker 9: the disadvantage against them on the, boards in the, paint
• 56:25
  Speaker 9: and and they can shoot from the outside of course as,
• 56:28
  Speaker 9: well because you're nobody's successful just playing through the. Paint
• 56:31
  Speaker 9: but so it's The, YEAH i think that they're the most.
• 56:37
  Speaker 9: VERTATILE i think they're the most, physical AND i think
• 56:41
  Speaker 9: that what they do in non conference play is a
• 56:45
  Speaker 9: reflection of what could happen in the. Tournament, now they're
• 56:47
  Speaker 9: not going to win six games by thirty. Points so
• 56:49
  Speaker 9: don't don't get me. WRONG i just think that you,
• 56:52
  Speaker 9: know the league teams have them scouted, better and it's
• 56:57
  Speaker 9: it's a real grind in your. CONFERENCE i think when
• 57:00
  Speaker 9: they get into a non conference play, again they're gonna
• 57:02
  Speaker 9: be kind of relieved to see.
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: That everybody loves to find out a sleeper so they
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: can look really smart come bracket. Time do you have
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: somebody circled for, that somebody that's off the radar.
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: That could be very noisy come playoff?
• 57:18
  Speaker 9: Time so if you're talking about someone who could win
• 57:22
  Speaker 9: a game war, two that kind of, team you, know
• 57:26
  Speaker 9: A sweet, sixteen you know from a lower, seed let's.
• 57:30
  Speaker 9: SEE i GUESS i would, say, oh If i'm gonna
• 57:33
  Speaker 9: pick like an eleven, seed If auburn gets, THERE i
• 57:37
  Speaker 9: Think auburn's good enough to do. Something there is no
• 57:39
  Speaker 9: better tested team than college basketball Than. Auburn they played
• 57:42
  Speaker 9: the toughest schedule of. Anybody there isn't anything coming that
• 57:45
  Speaker 9: they won't. See the problem For, auburn like most teams
• 57:49
  Speaker 9: in that part of the bracket is, consistency you, know
• 57:52
  Speaker 9: it's are are they gonna be consistent? Enough and then you,
• 57:56
  Speaker 9: know Maybe Saint mary if they don't get too high
• 57:58
  Speaker 9: of a, seed Said Saint he's just in an eight nine.
• 58:01
  Speaker 9: Seed that's a. Problem they're not going too weekends as
• 58:04
  Speaker 9: much AS i like. Them but and then a little
• 58:07
  Speaker 9: higher seed that could go maybe even deeper than the
• 58:10
  Speaker 9: sweet sixteen we talked about a little. Bit IS byu
• 58:13
  Speaker 9: because of The vansa and the the talent that you,
• 58:18
  Speaker 9: know talk about a guy who can carry a team
• 58:19
  Speaker 9: through a tournament and WHAT i would have had him
• 58:22
  Speaker 9: as a sleeper final four team at Saunderten. Copper BUT
• 58:24
  Speaker 9: i think that that's going to limit what they can probably.
• 58:27
  Speaker 9: Do but A sweet sixteen from a six to seven
• 58:30
  Speaker 9: seed kind of position FOR byu would be not terribly.
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: Surprising all, right, Man, well, hey great.
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: Stuff as, Always i'm looking At palm brackets right, now
• 58:40

  Speaker 1: i like to use The Jerry palm breakdown just to
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: see where college basketball is right. Now AND i mean
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: the highlights there. Are it's a top heavy, league but maybe.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: Deeper maybe there's sixteen teams that can win a national.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: Championship BUT i wouldn't pick a lot upsets this year
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: in your bracket and then the freshman. Class if you
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: haven't checked it out you're a basketball fan at.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: All it is.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: Sensational it is just and teams in THE nba are
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: falling all over themselves to lose. Basketball there's a reason
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: why this. OFFSEASON i mean once by a time we
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: have the lottery because Of Ralph, sampson because teams were
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: losing on purpose way back in the early eighties to
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: try to get in a position to draft the seven
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: foot four inch three time player of the year out Of.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: Virginia well we. Have so a landmark decision was made
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: to invent the lottery to try to prevent. This it didn't,
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: work and so here we are where we've had this
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: problem ever since the. Eighties once people finally realized how
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: important it was to have high draft. PICKS i, mean
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: there was a time in The Magic Johnson Larry bird
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: ere where they didn't.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: Even value having the number one.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: Pick and then by the time you got To Ralph,
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: sampson they valued it so much that they had to
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: invent this lottery system to try to curb teams from
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: losing on. Purpose and yet they've altered, it but there's
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: not been this land shifting change like we're going to
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: have this. Offseason Adam silver's going to introduce something that
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: you don't see coming to try to curb losing on
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: purpose because so many teams this year are trying to
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: get in position to get one of these freshmen In kyle.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: Basketball so it takes a special player or a special
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: class of players that, introduces you, know change to this.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: Magnitude and that's what we're getting this.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 4: Year, well And i'm excited to see how they decide
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 4: that they're gonna do. IT i, mean we've talked a
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 4: couple times about, it And reckless at breakfast this week
• 1:02:18

• 1:02:21

• 1:02:29
  Speaker 4: mean they're going to come up with. That but also
• 1:02:31

• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: Been watching a lot of college, basketball you're missing out
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: on some good stuff because there are a lot of.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: Talent it's just inexperienced. Talent BUT i, Mean Cam boozer is.

  Speaker 1: season which was last, night AND i Think ashley AND
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: i shared the opinion THAT i don't know If i've
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: been more excited to watch the crack and play hockey
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: all year, long AND i was all pumped up For.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: Wednesday i'm expecting a good game and then they get
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: beaten four to one by The Dallas. Stars how disappointed
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: should we be here today by that performance last?
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: Night, well it.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 6: Was it was, Awful there's no, doubt there's no sugarcoating.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 6: It BUT i probably could have given you the heads
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 6: up that that's probably what you could have, expected and
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 6: only for this Re this is a. Team you, know
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 6: every team has their you, know has their, kryptonite right
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 6: And dallas is?
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 9: That For.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 6: Seattle it's the cracking are now to twelve and one all,
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 6: Time i'm sorry to twelve and two all time Against.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 6: DALLAS i think about. That fourteen fifteen, games whatever it,
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 6: is fifteen, GAMES i guess it. Is they've won two.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 6: GAMES i know. That people, say what about the. Playoffs
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 6: i'm just talking regular. Season they did take them to seven.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 6: Games they won more games in a seven game series
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 6: Against dallas in the playoffs three years ago than they
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 6: have in you, know all of, regulation all regular season.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 6: Games so that's just for whatever, reason that matchup's. Bad
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 6: they they played arguably one of their worst games of
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 6: the year in that. Game they had nine shots on
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 6: goal through the first two periods of. Play it was
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 6: just and in some ways that's funny we were thinking about.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 6: It it's something you can talk about on a team
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 6: run pregame. Show but in the back of all of our,
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 6: Minds i'm Sure allison And brett and, me we're all,
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 6: thinking Oh, god here we. Go could you have a
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 6: worse matchup to start the Post olympic break Than? Dallas and,
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 6: Yes dallas was missing a couple of, guys but Including
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 6: raton and who is their best, player they still have
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 6: two thirty goal scorers on that. Roster they're the deepest
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 6: team probably in The Western conference and they just Have seattle's.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 6: Numbers so tonight's the, Barometers, Chuck Saint louis is. Bad
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 6: they're not. Good it's a team you should, beat so.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 6: Tonight if they come out like that or have a
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 6: performance like that, tonight then we have an. Issue then
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 6: we have a. CONVERSATION i, think, yeah.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah and if we're talking two losses to start this
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: reset here tomorrow.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: Morning for a team.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: That has shown this penchant to win a lot in a,
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: bunch win a bunch of games in a short period of,
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: time and then they will lose a bunch in a,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: stretch are we needing to brace ourselves For oh, no
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: here we. Go here comes the rough. Stretch, again and
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: it couldn't have come at a worse.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 6: Time, well it feels that that's certainly in the trend this,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 6: year and there's no getting around. THAT i. Think the
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 6: way the schedule sets, up, though it's it's conducive to
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 6: a little bit of up and down for a while they're.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 6: Playing you, Know dallas is an elite. Team monday Against,
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 6: carolina that's an elite. Team Saint louis is. Bad vancouver
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 6: On saturday at home is a bad hockey. Team they
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 6: Get Saint louis again Next, wednesday they get all the
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 6: one ud after. That they have opportunities here to put
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 6: to strings and wins. Together THE nhl is interesting this,
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 6: year especially in The Western, conference you, KNOW i, mean
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 6: and it's so, Tight like in terms of the playoff
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 6: race in The, west it is so tight right. Now you,
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 6: Know dallas moves up into second place in The central
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 6: with seventy, Nine But dallas And minnesota the second and
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 6: third place teams in The Central, division they would far
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 6: and away be the leaders in The Pacific. Division right.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 6: Now vegas leads with seventy, Points dallas seventy, Nine minnesota seventy,
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 6: eight both in The central and those teams are just
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 6: kind of humming along nice and easy right, now whereas
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 6: in The west it's Basically, Vegas, Anaheim, Edmonton, seattle and
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 6: La utah's hanging around the playoff race as. Well but
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 6: keep in mind how the playoffs, work because people, say,
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 6: well what happens in the first. Round, yeah, well if
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 6: you finish second or third in your, division you play
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 6: the other team in your. Division if you finish in
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 6: a wildcard, spot you play the top team in the
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 6: in one of the two. Divisions so as it stands right,
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 6: Now seattle would have to Take colorado when the first
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 6: round of the. Playoffs But seattle, also by dropping that
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 6: game last, night they're only one point out of the
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 6: third place in The Pacific, division and they are two
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 6: points out of second place in The Pacific, Division so
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 6: those two spots are very much. Reachable, obviously the playoffs
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 6: are priority number, one but the second priority is to
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 6: get into The Pacific division top, three and if you
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 6: do that then you have a pretty good chance in
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 6: the first round to see what. Happens so it's gonna
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 6: be that way the rest of the. Year it really,
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 6: Is AND i Think i'm thinking, back it was kind
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 6: of Like wasn't that the case in baseball last? Year
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 6: wasn't the central kind of down, right wasn't the central
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 6: kind of a down? Division and then you know the
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 6: other two divisions are really. Good that's kind of how
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 6: it works out. Sometimes it's kind of working that way
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 6: right now For seattle.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: And fornessas with us to our hockey expert around these
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: year parts and of course cracking back in action tonight five,
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: o'clock they'll drop the puck In Saint. Louis we've got
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: your covered here on Sports radio ninety three point THREE
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: kjrfm pregame at four. Thirty AND i would assume you're
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: on television. Tonight is THAT i safe to assign on?
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 9: THAT i?
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 6: Hope? So, yeah chance you ever know day to, day
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 6: day to day contract, buddy who? Knows? Yeah four thirty
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 6: pre game on the on ON TVs and same For.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: Bett, yes all, right well let's talk about when this
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: team is, cooking and they need to cook right. Now,
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: yeah what is going what is? Tendons what is the
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: tendency that is going right for the crack and what
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: is what's the secret recipe for them when they are
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: playing their.
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 6: Best it's, Structure it's great, defense great, goaltending and the
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 6: power plays, going you, know AND i think that's. It
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 6: like the power play last night came up empty and
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 6: four for four last. Night that can't. HAPPEN i, think you,
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 6: Know joey was okay last, Night but in, fact really
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 6: three of the four goals were deflections that were going
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 6: well wide in the. Net and if you want to
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 6: think about, that think about The. Olympics how often do
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 6: we see that in the last couple of you, know
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 6: the last some of those big games in The. Olympics
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 6: Hillary night's, goal for, example right going wide in the
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 6: net to flection an in goaltender has no. Chance traffic
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 6: in front did a bad job in term of that
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 6: helping the goaltender. Out but that's kind of what it.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 6: Is the other thing is is all four lines are,
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 6: going and this is a this is a team that
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 6: doesn't have high end talent in terms of. Scoring they
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 6: don't have a forty point. Guy they're one of like
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 6: four or five teams the league doesn't have a forty
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 6: point guy right, now but but they chip. In you,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 6: know as a, team it's it's team, scoring as they
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 6: call you, hear team toughness or team. Scoring and that's
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 6: what they'll. Do AND i, think you, know part of
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 6: the issue with this team is they're they're healthy, now
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 6: they're trying to find their way in terms of their
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 6: top three lines and who's. Where they didn't Have Koppol
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 6: kocha last. Night they gave him a rest day of maintenance.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 6: Date but he'll be back tonight and that helps their
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 6: depth AND i think really it's depth. Scoring but that
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 6: top line was really. GOOD i will say this right
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 6: before the, break you, Know Maddy, Venier's Jordan eberley and
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 6: And jerry McCann were really cruising like they. Were they
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 6: were humming along at a very high. Rate and they
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 6: need those guys to keep. Going but can just looked
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 6: off last. Night AND i, think you, know it's hockey
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 6: is a funny. Game it can you. Know THEY i
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 6: always think Of Pete. Cary can't a game in the first. Quarter, well,
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 6: no you, can't not necessarily in. Hockey maybe you, can
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 6: though you can have a two to one win or
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 6: one nothing. Win McCann had two or three opportunities on
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 6: an early power play and he just, WHIFFED i mean
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 6: swinging a miss like just whift and timing was. Off
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 6: you can't replicate timing in training camp or a practice
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 6: like they've had the last couple of. WEEKS i expect
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 6: him to be. Better he at a five game point
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 6: street coming to an. End but their top line has
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 6: to be, good goaltending has to be you, know borderline,
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 6: elite and they just have to play within the structure
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 6: That Lane lambert. Wants and none of those things happened last.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 6: Night they did a poor job in front Of. Joey
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 6: they did a poor job at clearing in front of the,
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 6: net and you, know three shots that should not have
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 6: gone in went in because there was traffic in front
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 6: of the. Court and, frankly they just that's also as
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 6: funny they Played keasey To smith and goal last. Night For.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 6: Dallas he's their, backup their number one, Guys Jay, cottinger
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 6: he played for THE Us olympic. Team he was a
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 6: backup To. Hellabuck he didn't play last, night but that wouldn't.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 6: Matter he wouldn't played anyway because The smith is six
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 6: and now he's said in a one all time Against,
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 6: seattle he's never given up more than one goal Against.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 6: Seattle he's got their number. Two it was just Truly,
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 6: Chuck i'm giving, excuses but it's. Reality bad. Matchup they
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 6: take on A Saint louis team. Tonight it's just. Awful.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 6: Like they're eight games below five. Hundred they've had five
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 6: wins since the start of the new. Year Since january.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 6: First Robert thomas is probably their best all round player
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 6: both ends of the. Ice he's out tonight for personal,
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 6: reasons may end up getting traded and maybe a guy
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 6: that ends up here at some point next. Week never,
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 6: know he's a guy that could be on the, Block
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 6: so it's all there for. Them they're veteran back to.
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 6: Backs they're four and one in their last five six
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 6: back to back game second, half so that was a
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 6: problem last. Year they're not having that same problem this.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 6: Year so they need to get this one. Tonight make
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 6: no mistake because one game last. Night, again they go
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 6: into last night out of the, break they're in third
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 6: place in The. Pacific one game, later with everything else that,
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 6: happened they're now the second wildcard. Spot the good news
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 6: is we do think The Vegas Gold knights for, something
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 6: and that's the fact they beat The kings last night in.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 6: Regulation So seattle's still three clear OF la for that
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 6: final wildcard.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: Spot all, right last, MINUTE i got to ask. YOU i,
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: mean for a hockey fan such as, MYSELF i Loved,
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: Sunday for a hockey nutbag such as, yourself what did
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: you how did you take In? Sunday how much did
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: you enjoy? THAT i just thought it was awesome for the.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: GAME i thought the game. Itself you, know it's not
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: often that, that you, know big games live up to
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: all the hype going.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 6: In but you, know maybe one of the most talented
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 6: teams ever assembled For Team canada in the history of the.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 6: Game and that includes the Great Soviet union teams And
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 6: Canada cup teams and you know even the two and
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 6: twenty Ten canadian. Teams that team was loaded and THE
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 6: us played with them the entire. Game, yeah they got
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 6: out shot And hallibuck was unbelievable and saved them many many.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 6: Times but that's the. Sport like your goalie last, Year
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 6: bennington did that For Team canada and The Four. Nations
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 6: but it was a great. Game for the, game it
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 6: was just a great. Matchup it's too bad it was
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 6: at five Am pacific. Time THE tv number, though was.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 6: MASSIVE i Think god if it would have started at
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 6: eight Am pacific. Time what would it have. Been it
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 6: was the highest rated sporting event in this country that
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 6: started before nine Am. Eastern, ever so people tuned in
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 6: the phone. Calling everything that happened afterwards was really, unfortunate
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 6: AND i think it's taken away a little bit of
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 6: something from that, game and that's that's that's. Unfortunate, hopefully
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 6: as history goes, by we'll remember more of the fact
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 6: that The TEAM usa wins a gold medal for the
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 6: first time in forty six. Years Jack hughes is a.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 6: Superstar it was just a good day for the, sport
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 6: and hopefully it kind of boos things the rest of
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 6: the way for THE. Nhl AND i think if for nothing, Else.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 6: Chuck you, know if you're a young kid playing minor
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 6: hockey and anytime you go out to CASE, i there's
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 6: three sheets of ice and they're always. Full the game
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 6: is growing every single, DAY i. THINK i think that's
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 6: the bigger picture that we get out of, it, too
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 6: is that it helps the game.

  Speaker 3: when we walk out, there he's heard.
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: It all, right let's get a little reckless at. Breakfast
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: i'm just gonna go. AHEAD i wasn't sure HOW i
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: was going to structure this, segment So i'm just gonna
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: go ahead and give you the headline and and then
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: we'll break it down from. There there are a couple of,
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: things and this isn't just in THE. Nba this is
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: THROUGHOUT i probably not, football but this.
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: Is throughout the sports.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: World right, now there are a couple of like trigger
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: phrases in the modern, day and one of them is,
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 1: tanking which we've discussed a, lot And i'm going to
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: touch upon that again but not make the entire segment about.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: That and then the other thing is load, management which
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: is both of those. THINGS i, mean they're throughout all
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: the sports to a, degree but obviously in THE, NBA i,
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: mean it's a there's not a day that goes by
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: that they don't discuss, this haggle over.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 3: It and it sounds so negative even though probably wasn't
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 3: supposed to.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: Be and So i'm just going to, say as they,
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: headlined tanking has to go and do whatever it takes
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: to get rid of. It and then, also let's just
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: leave load management. Alone AND i know that's not, popular
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: AND i know how much load management drives people up a,
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: wall BUT i think maybe we don't put any rules
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: in place to govern load, Management, Okay and THE nba
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: has tried to do this because they think this is
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: also a stain on the. Product that Little timmy gets
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: to go to a game With dad And Uncle roy
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: and it's the only game he gets to go to
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 1: his the only game that the family can afford one
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: game it's his, birthday and he goes to the game
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: to watch.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 2: The, spurs and The spurs.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: Have decided that's the day we're gonna Sit victor Wimbin,
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 1: yama and Little Timmy's birthday's ruined in his trip and
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: he swears off basketball for the rest of his life
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: and he has to go home in. Tears AND i
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: hate that For, timmy AND i hate that For, dad
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: AND i hate that For Uncle. Roy and yet they're
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: not doing it to ruin your. Day they're actually doing
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: it to use A Jerry depoto that nobody.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 2: Liked we're doing you.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: A favor because the city and Future timmy is going
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: to Understand i'd much rather celebrate a championship THAN i
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: would making sure that every TIME i get to go
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: to the game that all the best players are. Playing
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: and that's why they're doing load. Management it's not to
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: strip the fan of their opportunity to watch them. Play
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: it's not because they're weak where they're. Soft it's because
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: organizations have determined that if we can minimize some of the,
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: load especially seven footers take on running up and down
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: a court more than eighty two times a.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: Year because don't.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: Forget stupid preseason games in THE, nba which are. Pointless
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: they also have to play in those games as, well
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: plus international competitions and everything else which A frenchman Like
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: victor Winbin yama has to participate, in otherwise his entire
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 1: home country hates him for. It it's just a. Lot
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: it's just a lot to put on a guy who's
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: six seven foot.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: Six with skinny, ankles very skinny and very fragile. Feet
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 2: it's just a lot to put on his.
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: Plate and it goes for a lot of, players and
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 1: so they have load management to try to manage their
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: load so when they hit the, playoffs we don't have
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 1: to worry about managing your.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: Load that you can play as.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 1: Many minutes as we deem necessary to win that game
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: or that.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: Series and so it is.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: Strategy it is useful strategy that not just THE nba,
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: uses but Also Major League baseball uses as. Well the tenth,
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 1: Inning why we start the tenth inning with a runner at,
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: second that's load. Management that's not because we don't want
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 1: games lasting four and a half, hours because we don't
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: want fans having to stay up till midnight to watch
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: the end of the game and. Losing they stop selling
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: beer in the seventh, inning they're not and beer sales
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: all the way to the. Fourteenth but what baseball organizations,
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 1: executives not the. Players the players didn't say we got
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 1: to get rid of extra, Innings.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 2: And it wasn't.
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: Owners it was baseball executives that said went to the
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 1: owners and, said we have multi million dollar, investments and
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: every time we go to sixteen, innings.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 2: We have to tax our.
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 1: Bullpen usually we have to reenact as starter at the tail,
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 1: end or have to throw a second basement in the
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: game when the game is on the, line and it's
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: just it's more bad than. Good is there any way
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: that we could have a system in which we don't
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: have To we can kind of eliminate the risk of
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: there being sixteen seventeen inning games because it screws us
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: up for a week and a half before we can
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: get our rotation back to where it needs to, be
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: our bullpen back to where it needs to, be and
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: your multi million dollar, investments because they're all over the
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: everybody makes over a million dollars now and some of
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 1: them are making up to sixty million dollars a. Year
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 1: we are asking them to do things that put their
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: health at, risk and maybe not that, night but maybe
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: the following. Night or a couple nights later because they
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: did something outside of their. Routine and so it was
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: baseball executives and managers that wanted to change extra inning
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: rules with the idea of getting games over quicker so
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 1: that they didn't have to confront throwing thirteen pitchers in
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: one night and screwing up the bullpen for a week
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: and a.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 4: Half, YEAH i mean it makes sense to, me and
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 4: especially when you're thinking about how long a season, is
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 4: not just for, baseball for, basketball for all of. It
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 4: and you've got these people that, are you, know so fine,
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 4: tuned especially basketball. PLAYERS i mean the specifics and the
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 4: treatment and the recovery and all of the. Things everything
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 4: is like a precision sport on its. Own, Yeah and
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 4: so if you can do a little rest here and
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 4: there to allow that to to not have to be
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 4: an issue in the most important part of the. SEASON i,
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 4: mean look at The seahawks and what they did With Ken,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 4: walker and it wasn't load.
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 3: Management it was sharing, carries right.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: And well management that load.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 3: Man, Okay so how well did that work? Out pretty?
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 9: WELL i?
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 3: Think?
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, YEAH i mean he was ready and freshest to
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 1: go at the end of the season.
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 3: After years of dealing with injuries every.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 2: Season, YEAH i.
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 1: Mean even in THE, nfl the rough and TUMBLE. NFL i,
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: mean there's a reason that we don't play a full
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: fifteen minute quarter in.
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 2: Overtime it's ten.
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: Minutes Even that is an example of THE nfl, saying
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: we're already asking him to play seventeen, games As Greg
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: bell calls, them seventeen weeks of car.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 2: Crashes, yeah one after the.
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: Other and so we're only going to play ten minute
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: overtimes and if we end up in a. Tie we've
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: tried to set up rules to try, to i, mean make,
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: it next to him possible to end up in a.
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: Tie but if we end up in a, tie we're
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 1: gonna end up in a.
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 3: Tie, yeah it'll. Happen we're not gonna.
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 1: Play sudden death football until somebody scores.
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 2: Next we're not gonna do.
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 1: It hockey has gone to shootouts earlier than before three
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 1: on three. Hockey all of that is under the umbrella
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 1: of load.
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 3: Management, yeah they don't have the twenty minute overtime period. Anymore.
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: Now it's not to the degree that THE, nba where
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 1: they you, know they're sitting guys on.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: Given, night but Cal. Raley there's a chance you're gonna
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 2: go to a.
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 1: Game timmy And Uncle roy are gonna go to A
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 1: mariners game this year And cal's not gonna play that.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 1: Day and that's not because Boy col's in a. Slump
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 1: that's because we need to manage his time behind the.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 1: Plate he needs a couple of days off here and,
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: there and we want to not only have Cal raley
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: at his best for most of the, season we are
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: also thinking about what's best for Cal raley in twenty.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: Thirty Who we still want him to be a productive
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: player in Twenty we've got him signed to a long term.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 2: Deal we want him to be a Lifetime.
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 1: Mariner we want him to catch till he's thirty five or,
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: forty and THEN dh for a couple of years after,
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: that and then he'll be the manager and then he'll
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 1: own the.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 3: TEAM i, MEAN i love this, Plan sign me up for.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 2: That but it's all under the umbrella of load.
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 1: Management all of, that and some leagues make more drastic
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 1: examples of, it and they they obviously are giving players
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: more time off in THE nba than they are in other.
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 1: Sports but, AGAIN i would remind you that we're talking
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 1: about seven foot tall people that always end up with
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: ankle and foot. Injuries doesn't matter how healthy they, are
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: they all. Do they all end up chema logic ones
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 1: battled through injuries all the. Time and so that's what
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: they're trying to. Do they're trying to protect guys so
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: that teams are at their best at the end of
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: the year and so that their superstar players have longer
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 1: careers because there are tens of, millions hundreds of millions
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: of dollars now invested in these players and they don't
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: want to run them.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 4: Ragged, well, yeah and the load management is different in
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 4: a team that's trying to make the playoffs than a
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 4: team that's far away from the.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 3: Playoffs, right you're still trying to keep your players, healthy
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 3: but there's.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 4: Different but you, know you can't you can't look at
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 4: the team that's headed for the playoffs and sitting out
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 4: their best player for a night saying that they're doing.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 4: Something you know that basketball needs to stop like and
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 4: unlike a team that's not going to make the playoffs
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 4: and is sitting not their best player because they're trying
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 4: to lose so they can improve their draft.
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 2: Stock, well and then well that slips into the.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: Tanking that's where all the focus needs to, be not
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: trying to lose on.
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 2: Purpose you're absolutely.
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 1: Right The Utah jazz right now are under investigation because
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: they have put three guys on the injured, list and
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 1: THE nba is, like they're three best. Players just coincidence
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: that your three best players are hurt right now when
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: you are trying To so they got called out for
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 1: sitting guys in the third quarter of a game when
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: they were. Leading they set out their starters and, oh
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 1: they're just going to keep trying to find ways around
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 1: whatever blockade THE nba puts in front of, them because
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 1: there's an incentive to lose in The National Basketball. Association
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: so from a tanking, perspective put all of your, focus
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 1: all of your injury on. That, LIKE i think we
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 1: need to come up with the most outside the, box,
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: crazy fool. Proof there is no incentive for losing in
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: THE nba plan that you can come up. WITH i
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 1: don't think the other leagues suffer as much from. IT
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 1: i would like to see a salary cap floor In
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 1: Major League. Baseball that might help the balance competitive balance
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 1: a little bit, more But i'd make other changes To
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 1: Major league baseball as, Well BUT i don't think you
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 1: have A we are just sitting our best players for draft.
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 1: Position it just doesn't happen in THE. Nfl it just
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 1: doesn't happen In Major League. Baseball it doesn't happen really
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 1: in THE. Nhl but it is happening in The National Basketball.
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: Association that needs to get snuffed. Out there should be
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: no incentive for losing in that, sport considering that you
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 1: are struggling so mightily with the tanking. Issue but you
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 1: are absolutely, Right. Ashley if they are sitting guys to
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: tank the, season that's one. Thing sitting guys so you
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: will be at your best at the end of the,
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 1: season that's a completely different. Thing and, frankly that's what
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: you should be rooting, for is to have your team
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 1: at its best when it matters, most and this is
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 1: part of the. Process the whole Reason i'm bringing this
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 1: up is because right now there is a conversation going
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: on in THE nba and this is.
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 2: Silly how silly is? This THE, mvp.
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 1: They have put in rules that are forcing guys to.
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 1: Play if you were going to win THE, mvp you
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: have to play at least sixty five games during the
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: course of the. Season so right, now THE mvp conversation
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: that is being held Is Yo get AND sga are
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 1: the most valuable players in the, league but they are
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 1: at risk if they have an injury here down the
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: stretch of not playing in the sixty five, games which
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 1: automatically eliminates them from THE mvp. Conversation that's just, stupid automatically.
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: Eliminate so there's they're like two different. Graphs they're, like
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: who's the ACTUAL mvp of the. League Nikoli jokich is
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 1: averaging twenty nine points per game and leads the league
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 1: in rebounds and.
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 2: Assists, yeah he's. INCREDIBLE i, mean let me say that.
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: Again twenty nine points per game and he leads the
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: league in, rebounds and he leads the league in Assess
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 1: but because he might end up only playing sixty four
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 1: games this year and somebody else plays sixty, six because
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: they all load, manage with the exception Of philadelphia And,
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: maxi they all load managed to a certain.
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 2: Degree so the guy.
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: With sixty six games can win THE, mvp but the
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 1: guy with sixty four games, can't or the guy WITH i,
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: mean take it down even, further a guy with sixty
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: five games can win THE.
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 2: MVP a guy with sixty four camp and that's. Ridiculous
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 2: and that's, ridiculous and that's What i'm. Saying they're putting in.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: RULES i, MEAN i think that's actually something you could
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 1: sue the league. For, well you kept me from winning THE,
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 1: nba or you forced me to play. MORE i got
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: hurt so THAT i could have AN, mvp and Now i'm.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: SUING i think you have opened yourself up to a
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 1: lawsuit by having this rule in place where you have
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 1: to play at least sixty five.
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 2: Games AND i would add one more thing to.
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 1: That victor Wembin yama is never going to play sixty
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 1: five games in a. Season it's just not going to.
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 1: Happen he's seven foot. Six he's got ankles the size
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 1: of my. Pencil Pen thank.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 2: You i'm using a.
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 3: Pen thank you for saying.
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 2: Pencil, yeah it just sounds. Better pencil sounds.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 6: Better.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no he's got ankles the size of. Twizzlers and
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 2: they're not going to risk.
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: That, investment nor should, they nor should they long, term
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: just so that he can meet some sort of quota
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: of sixty five games per year to have a shot
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 1: at THE. Mvp can you Imagine victor Wimin yama for
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: the rest of his career being eliminated from ANY mvp
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 1: because The spurs And victor have decided you're going to
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: be best for us long term by playing sixty to
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: sixty five games per. Year we might not ever play
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: you more than sixty five games because we have to
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: manage your, body your, physique and of course your greatness
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 1: as best as we. Can SO i don't, know maybe
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: limit the number of teams that make the playoffs and
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: then maybe you will get.
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 3: More, YEAH i don't think you need play in, games.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 1: Right maybe you will get more players playing more games that.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: Way maybe that's the incentive that you that you. Need
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: but at this, stage.
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 2: You know your you don't you have way too.
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 1: Many teams making the playoffs with the play, ins and
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 1: then you're trying to tell somebody that knows they're going
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: to make the playoffs how to manage their.
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 4: Personnel, yeah that's, no there's no need for any of.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 3: That and can you imagine also winning.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 4: THE mvp, though and you're because the other guys that
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 4: were THE mvp didn't play enough.
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 3: GAMES i Mean i'd be, like, no, THANKS i don't
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 3: THINK i want this.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 1: AWARD i can't imagine having played sixty four games And
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: i'm automatically, eliminated and then the winner played one more
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 1: game than. Me, yeah might have even played fewer. Minutes
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: but they put these rules in place to try to
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 1: keep people from load. Management bottom line, is do whatever you,
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: can ESPECIALLY nba BECAUSE i don't think that the other
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 1: leagues suffer from it as.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 2: Much but do whatever you.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: Can come up with the most creative thing possible this,
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: offseason AND i mean put it through the.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 2: Ringer come up with whatever rules are required to.
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 1: Not incentivize losing anymore in The National Basketball association and
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: eliminating tanking. Forever but then just keep your. Hands come
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 1: completely offload. Management leave it to the, executives leave it
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 1: to the, coaches leave it to the players to figure
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 1: out what's the best way for. Us because those that
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 1: are trying to figure out the best way to win
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 1: a championship aren't trying to Builk Little timmy And Uncle
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 1: roy out of their hard earned. Money they're not trying
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: to make anybody. Cry they're trying to do what's best
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 1: for the team that year when it matters, most and
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 1: also it is best for the franchise to make sure
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: That victor Wemben yama has a fifteen year career and
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: not a seven year. Career go watch The Celtics dynasty
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: documentary made By Bill simmons and watch What kevin McHale
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 1: And Larry bird did to try to play every.
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 2: Night, yeah and then realize had.
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: They not had we Had Larry bird playing in today's,
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: game where they would have actually managed his injuries and
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 1: his back and everything else a little.
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 2: Better, yeah he's a.
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 1: Warrior we give him credit for that for wanting to
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 1: play every, night that's. Great but had they managed him
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 1: like they did, today we would have had five more
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: years of greatness From Larry bird and he wouldn't have
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 1: been a thirty year old who had to lay on
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 1: the floor every time he was taken out of a
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: game because his back was.
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 2: Out, like why did? It what were what we used to?
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 9: Do?
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah they were, tough they were. Rugged good for. Them
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 1: they know they went into the lane and they got
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 1: splatted on the.
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 2: Court good for.
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 1: Them it was a much tougher athlete back. Then BUT
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: i kind of wish we would have infused some of
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: this logic into the way that we handled. Injuries back,
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 1: then and we might have been treated to a lot
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 1: greater careers than what we had because people were running
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 1: into the ground and driven out of the league.
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 2: With injuries by the time they were thirty one years.
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 4: Old, YEAH i. KNOW i couldn't agree. More and, also
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 4: you know you could have shortened the. PLAYOFFS i don't,
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 4: know just saying like.
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: That Short, yeah why don't you shorten the? Playoffs why
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 2: don't you have had fewer? Teams if you want to incentivize,
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 2: people you don't want to give up any. Money you
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 2: want to force guys into.
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 1: Lineups when the organizations are sitting there saying this is
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 1: better for, us this is better for our, fans this
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 1: gives us a better chance to. Win at the end
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: of the, Season Joe embiid can't make it through a
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 1: full season without getting. Injured that's. Proven, yes a lot
