- 0:55Speaker 2: bunch of six footers basically. But yeah, yeah, I don't know.
- 1:00Speaker 2: I mean, well, I guess maybe I got up to

- 1:03Speaker 3: I don't know. I was right around there.
- 1:04Speaker 4: And then and then once wrestling kicked in, then you're
- 1:06Speaker 4: dropping it fast.
- 1:07Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I dropped a lot of weight really fast.
- 1:09Speaker 2: I remember one time, Tyler, my uh I remember, I
- 1:13Speaker 2: want to say it was like my junior year, my
- 1:15Speaker 2: mom comes home from a high school football game and
- 1:18Speaker 2: she's or I came home and my mom was already
- 1:19Speaker 2: home and she was like, she goes, are you really
- 1:22Speaker 2: six foot three? And I was like what and she's
- 1:25Speaker 2: like yeah. And I looked and they'd put me in there.
- 1:27Speaker 2: And I don't know if they messed it up and
- 1:29Speaker 2: put you know, me or somebody else instead of me,
- 1:31Speaker 2: or like whatever it was, you know, but it said
- 1:33Speaker 2: I was six three three ten.
- 1:35Speaker 4: Oh my goodness.
- 1:36Speaker 3: It's like no, no, definitely not six three, definitely not
- 1:39Speaker 3: three ten. Not back then. I wasn't. I'm sure there's
- 1:43Speaker 3: been moments where I've been three ten. I don't know.
- 1:46Speaker 2: Hey, we need to give a thank you to Anson
- 1:48Speaker 2: oz Bijornson of squal Cum Junior Wide Receiver and Corner.

- 2:16Speaker 2: for people to sponsor stuff if they would like to
- 2:19Speaker 2: do that. What is the best way to get a
- 2:20Speaker 2: hold of you.
- 2:21Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely just through social media, look for walking preps,
- 2:24Speaker 4: send a message and uh, you know, I'm basically at
- 2:28Speaker 4: a computer for you know, ten hours a day either, Yeah,
- 2:33Speaker 4: so I will notice it right away. When I'm not
- 2:37Speaker 4: doing that, I'm out at games and stuff, and I
- 2:38Speaker 4: do have my phone on me, so it takes me
- 2:40Speaker 4: a little bit longer that way, but usually during the day,
- 2:43Speaker 4: I'll see it right away and we can talk shop
- 2:45Speaker 4: and just kind of figure out what works best for you.
- 2:47Speaker 4: There's a lot of options out there, whatever fits your budget.
- 2:50Speaker 4: So yeah, and even though if it's like, you know,
- 2:54Speaker 4: some way through the season now, that's totally fine. There's
- 2:56Speaker 4: still things you can jump on. There are things that
- 2:58Speaker 4: could be at a weekly, you know, a monthly rate.
- 3:01Speaker 4: You start talking about the winter season coming up, So
- 3:03Speaker 4: there's lots of options.
- 3:05Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, even if they wanted to, they could
- 3:07Speaker 2: just go, hey, I'd like to sponsor Squalicum Athletics and
- 3:11Speaker 2: let's just go through the winter season from now until
- 3:13Speaker 2: the winter season.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Come up with something.
- 3:16Speaker 4: Yeah, there's always something we can we can work on,
- 3:18Speaker 4: and actually we're you know, there might be something sponsoring
- 3:21Speaker 4: the coach's corner pretty soon. We'll really see how that goes.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Yeah, is it like like a Burger place over in Missoula,
- 3:28Speaker 2: Montana or something make coach really happy?
- 3:32Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 3:33Speaker 3: Right, exactly.
- 3:34Speaker 2: Well, Tyler, we have got ten games to talk about here.
- 3:39Speaker 2: You know, last week we talked just briefly about the
- 3:41Speaker 2: other sports going on in Wakam County. But I guess
- 3:44Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say this, we don't need to do
- 3:45Speaker 2: that right now because they get their own podcast now.
- 3:48Speaker 3: So it went out Sunday night this.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Week or this previous week, so you can go back
- 3:52Speaker 2: and listen to that from now on, Tyler, you and
- 3:55Speaker 2: I are going to try to record it Sunday mornings
- 3:57Speaker 2: is what we're gonna do. We're gonna hop on hammer
- 4:00Speaker 2: one out, get it out to the people, hopefully kind
- 4:04Speaker 2: of hoping. The general idea eleven am on Sunday is
- 4:08Speaker 2: when it will go out. It will give people an
- 4:10Speaker 2: opportunity to listen to it before the Seahawks game most weeks,
- 4:14Speaker 2: but also give a little bit of a gap between
- 4:16Speaker 2: that and the Monday Morning podcast. So so yeah, be
- 4:22Speaker 2: sure to look out for that. It is called the
- 4:24Speaker 2: Fall Sports Weekly wrap Up, So just keep an eye
- 4:27Speaker 2: on that one, or do yourself a favor subscribe to
- 4:29Speaker 2: the podcast. You'll get the notification, so never miss it. Yeah,
- 4:32Speaker 2: that's how we do that, Tyler. We've got, as I said,
- 4:35Speaker 2: ten games to talk about, including and this one will
- 4:39Speaker 2: make you happy kind of. I mean kind of in
- 4:41Speaker 2: a way because you're still working on the preview for
- 4:44Speaker 2: this week as we record this at ten o'clock on
- 4:47Speaker 2: Wednesday night, you're still working on the preview which goes
- 4:50Speaker 2: up in about what less than twelve hours. But also
- 4:54Speaker 2: it will help you in terms of getting everything done
- 4:56Speaker 2: before Sunday because you'll be able to have it done
- 4:59Speaker 2: Thursday a night, which is Mary'sville Pilchuck oh and two
- 5:03Speaker 2: coming to town to take on the Linden Lions two
- 5:06Speaker 2: and oh. That's a seven pm game there at Lindon
- 5:08Speaker 2: High School. Uh, Marysville Pilchuck oh and two overall oh
- 5:12Speaker 2: and two and Walkham County uh, well outside of Walkham
- 5:15Speaker 2: County against Walkham County teams. So uh, they are doing
- 5:18Speaker 2: the full trip here, yeah, Tyler. Uh, Yeah, Marri'sville Pilchuck.
- 5:24Speaker 2: You've seen them already.
- 5:26Speaker 4: Yeah, well, yeah, I've seen them on film quite a bit,
- 5:28Speaker 4: seeing every play they've had this year detailed. And the
- 5:32Speaker 4: big thing about them is they're big. They're gonna be
- 5:35Speaker 4: They're gonna be bigger than Lindon. Uh that you can't
- 5:38Speaker 4: usually say that, especially upfront with with the Lions, but
- 5:42Speaker 4: they are bigger than Lindon and they are gonna want
- 5:45Speaker 4: to run the ball a lot. And saw what happened
- 5:48Speaker 4: last week when they got down by a few scores
- 5:50Speaker 4: and they were forced to throw. It was not pretty.
- 5:53Speaker 4: And so that'll be really interesting to see what happens
- 5:56Speaker 4: because you know, if Linden gets up early, are they
- 5:59Speaker 4: gonna as Mary'sville's still going to try to run because
- 6:01Speaker 4: they do have some home run threats running. You know,
- 6:04Speaker 4: they'll have a bunch of runs where it's like two
- 6:06Speaker 4: or three yards and then they'll they break off a
- 6:07Speaker 4: seventy yard touchdown. Uh you know, they they have the
- 6:10Speaker 4: capability of breaking one off for a long gain. Linden
- 6:14Speaker 4: has that kind of defense that just doesn't allow long gains.
- 6:17Speaker 4: They just you know, they'll they'll allow the five six
- 6:20Speaker 4: yard run here and there, but they don't allow the
- 6:22Speaker 4: big home run threats, so I think that that's really
- 6:26Speaker 4: going to go towards Lindon's favor. Yeah, it's pretty crazy.
- 6:30Speaker 4: The tom Hawks. They come into the conference which is
- 6:33Speaker 4: kind of half walking county half non walking county, and
- 6:36Speaker 4: all they've played is walking county teams. So and it's
- 6:39Speaker 4: Ben and Ohen to start. I've talked to a few
- 6:42Speaker 4: coaches in the county that thought they're the third best
- 6:44Speaker 4: team in the in the in the conference. I don't
- 6:47Speaker 4: know if they think that anymore, but probably not. But
- 6:51Speaker 4: you know, Linden is you know, they have a lot
- 6:55Speaker 4: of new faces. It's so crazy because they have so
- 6:58Speaker 4: many new starters, especially on the defensive side of the ball.
- 7:01Speaker 4: And you know, they they're they're but they're Linden like
- 7:05Speaker 4: they're still two and zero. You know, it's like just
- 7:07Speaker 4: never Like I learned my lesson in twenty sixteen. You know,
- 7:11Speaker 4: I've said this before. I thought, Okay, they're down, they're
- 7:14Speaker 4: gonna be like five and four, six and three, and
- 7:16Speaker 4: of course they got all the way to the Semis.
- 7:18Speaker 4: So I've learned my lesson to never say, oh, yeah,
- 7:21Speaker 4: they're a little down this year, Like I just the
- 7:24Speaker 4: coaching's too good, the pedigree is too good, the athletes
- 7:27Speaker 4: are too good, the tradition is too good. So so yeah,
- 7:32Speaker 4: I think Linden should do pretty well.
- 7:34Speaker 5: Here.
- 7:34Speaker 4: It is Thursday night game, so be ready. I know
- 7:38Speaker 4: that they were gonna do the the whole Friday night
- 7:41Speaker 4: lights thing out there with the radio and the whole
- 7:43Speaker 4: pre game three or four like it's a four hour
- 7:46Speaker 4: pre game and the whole big deal, and then all
- 7:49Speaker 4: of a sudden they get moved to Thursday and kind
- 7:50Speaker 4: of threw a wrench and everything. So but with it
- 7:54Speaker 4: being on Thursday, I know Mikayla will be covering the game,
- 7:57Speaker 4: but I might pop out there for a little bit.
- 8:00Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna be doing some volleyball games that
- 8:02Speaker 4: night and stuff like that, so we'll see how it
- 8:05Speaker 4: works out. But she'll be there taking pictures, she'll write
- 8:07Speaker 4: the story, do all that stuff. But what's great about
- 8:10Speaker 4: it is, yeah, I'll be able to watch the film
- 8:12Speaker 4: that night. Hint, hint, Coach Whitman, get that film up
- 8:15Speaker 4: as quickly as you can. Yeah, and then I can,
- 8:18Speaker 4: you know, and then once I have all the stats
- 8:20Speaker 4: hold it up, I'll get Michaela's story in the morning
- 8:22Speaker 4: and that will be one out of the way, which
- 8:23Speaker 4: will be great. So I do like the Thursday night
- 8:26Speaker 4: games because of that. The things that makes it tough
- 8:29Speaker 4: is it makes it makes the weak shrink a little bit.
- 8:32Speaker 4: So as far as getting stuff done, that on the
- 8:34Speaker 4: front makes it a little tougher. Yeah, But like you
- 8:38Speaker 4: and I are very similar where we like to do
- 8:40Speaker 4: a lot of prep and do a lot of things
- 8:41Speaker 4: to make it easier down the road. So in reality,
- 8:44Speaker 4: that's kind of what this is. So I would rather
- 8:46Speaker 4: have it like this.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean again, it kind of takes one
- 8:52Speaker 2: more thing off your plate overall, you know what I mean.
- 8:55Speaker 2: So yeah, Marysville Pilchuck. We mentioned they've kind of played well.
- 9:01Speaker 2: I mean, let's put it to you this way, Tyler.
- 9:03Speaker 2: They only have one more game against Wacam County team
- 9:06Speaker 2: the rest of the way, and it's not until the
- 9:08Speaker 2: end of October when they play Bellingham. But they're getting
- 9:12Speaker 2: the other three out of the way real quick because
- 9:15Speaker 2: they lost fourteen seven to Sea Home in week one,
- 9:17Speaker 2: forty four to fourteen last week to Squalicums. So yeah,
- 9:22Speaker 2: the Tomahawks coming to town there that is a seven
- 9:26Speaker 2: pm game on Thursday Night out at Linden High School.
- 9:30Speaker 2: Nine games on Friday, starting with Okanagan two and zero,
- 9:34Speaker 2: the defending state champs at the two B level coming
- 9:37Speaker 2: to town to take on the Linden Christian Lynks who
- 9:39Speaker 2: are one and one. That is a six pm game, Tyler,
- 9:43Speaker 2: give you an opportunity to go out there for a
- 9:44Speaker 2: little bit if you want to. You're gonna make your
- 9:46Speaker 2: way out there for maybe the first half or so
- 9:49Speaker 2: or what are you what are you planning on there?
- 9:50Speaker 4: Yeah, I definitely want to go out there in the beginning.
- 9:54Speaker 4: They're gonna bring the pregame radio to that game, so
- 9:58Speaker 4: I'll be out there and maybe talk for a little
- 10:00Speaker 4: bit about that game. This one is really really intriguing
- 10:05Speaker 4: to me. Boy, it's hard to say because Linnen Christian,
- 10:10Speaker 4: you know, I picked I picked them to win, they lose.
- 10:13Speaker 4: I picked them to lose. They win, and and the
- 10:17Speaker 4: trend right now for them is is up pretty high.
- 10:21Speaker 4: I've seen some a little bit of Okanagan film, and
- 10:23Speaker 4: they are huge. Uh. They will be bigger probably, I
- 10:28Speaker 4: mean most, I mean they will be bigger upfront than
- 10:30Speaker 4: Linnen Christian is. Uh. But it's crazy because it's just
- 10:33Speaker 4: a smaller school. This is the second year in a
- 10:34Speaker 4: row that Linden Christian has played the two B state champions.
- 10:39Speaker 4: It's uh, you know again, we've talked about it week
- 10:42Speaker 4: in and week out. How Lennon Christian, what's a heck
- 10:45Speaker 4: of a non conference schedule together, don't they?
- 10:48Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 10:48Speaker 4: And it's uh, And and kudos to them because they're
- 10:51Speaker 4: going to be battle tested once it gets to to
- 10:53Speaker 4: the conference play. But this one really is just super
- 10:58Speaker 4: intriguing to me because you talk about a team that's
- 11:02Speaker 4: a state championship team and they have a star player
- 11:04Speaker 4: on that team that I'm sure you'll get into detail
- 11:06Speaker 4: about in a little bit. And when you have that,
- 11:09Speaker 4: it's you have that pedigree, you have that belief you've
- 11:12Speaker 4: done things. Uh, that's a hard team to beat. And
- 11:16Speaker 4: Lynnen Christian now back at home, they really have to
- 11:19Speaker 4: they have to add on to what they did last week.
- 11:21Speaker 4: They have to find the things that worked last week
- 11:23Speaker 4: and improve on those things. Because you know, right now,
- 11:27Speaker 4: I mean if Okanagan played North Kitsap, I think I
- 11:29Speaker 4: take Okanagan. So I think you're taking I think you're beat.
- 11:32Speaker 4: You're playing against a team that's really really good. I
- 11:35Speaker 4: think you know, by what I saw with the film
- 11:38Speaker 4: with North kidsap that this is a team that.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Could be better.
- 11:42Speaker 4: So I really liked what they did with the passing game.
- 11:45Speaker 4: They still need to be able to run the ball
- 11:47Speaker 4: and get yards. I mean they're averaging, you know, right
- 11:50Speaker 4: around three yards of carry on the season, and that's
- 11:52Speaker 4: just you know, especially in high school football, that just
- 11:55Speaker 4: doesn't happen very often. And and if you're gonna win games,
- 11:58Speaker 4: you've got to have that. You gotta be able to
- 12:00Speaker 4: show that you can do both and have that balance.
- 12:02Speaker 4: And and right now it's gonna be it's gonna be
- 12:06Speaker 4: tough to do. But boy, I tell you, Eli Mayberry
- 12:09Speaker 4: had that you know, twenty for thirty last week, four
- 12:11Speaker 4: touchdown passes. He was really on point. Not a rocket arm,
- 12:15Speaker 4: but a very accurate arm, and you make smart decisions.
- 12:19Speaker 4: So he's gonna he's gonna have to be dialed in
- 12:22Speaker 4: once again. And Lenny Christian is gonna as they find
- 12:25Speaker 4: these athletes on the outside that are that are used
- 12:28Speaker 4: to the Friday night lights and just keep that going.
- 12:31Speaker 4: That's gonna be really helpful and hopefully you can lead
- 12:33Speaker 4: them to another win.
- 12:35Speaker 2: Yeah, Tyler, you mentioned the young man over at Okanagan.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Carter Kuchumbaw is his name, and uh he's six foot
- 12:42Speaker 2: five two and thirty pounds. Now most of you at
- 12:45Speaker 2: home are probably going, Wow, that's a big lineman. No,
- 12:48Speaker 2: that's a big quarterback, is what they play him as. Now,
- 12:53Speaker 2: Okanagan's looking to just manhandle you, is what they're doing.
- 12:57Speaker 2: They and they've been that way for years. They've they've
- 12:59Speaker 2: always had bigger guys. They got some big dudes up
- 13:03Speaker 2: front still too. But this young man is committed to
- 13:06Speaker 2: Boise State. He's listed as the fifty seventh best tight
- 13:10Speaker 2: end in the country, the twelfth best athlete in the
- 13:15Speaker 2: state of Washington. Yeah, I mean he is. He's a
- 13:19Speaker 2: big dude. And watching him in the state championship game
- 13:22Speaker 2: last year, it was like, yeah, I don't know how
- 13:26Speaker 2: many teams have the ability to defend him. And when
- 13:29Speaker 2: I say that, I say lower level teams. I'm just
- 13:31Speaker 2: going to be completely honest with you. If we played him,
- 13:34Speaker 2: you know, with Baffel, like, we would probably not have
- 13:38Speaker 2: all that much of a problem because we've got just
- 13:41Speaker 2: more guys is all it is, you know. But I mean,
- 13:44Speaker 2: don't get me wrong, he'd be a problem he'd be
- 13:46Speaker 2: a bit of a problem. But we'd be able to
- 13:49Speaker 2: play physically with them up front. But that could be
- 13:51Speaker 2: a problem for Lennon Christian. I mean, we know that
- 13:54Speaker 2: physicality isn't exactly their name of the game. It's not
- 13:58Speaker 2: really what they're looking to do. But Okanagan is so
- 14:02Speaker 2: I don't know, it's going to be interesting. I'm excited
- 14:04Speaker 2: to see what happens from that one. I'm excited to
- 14:06Speaker 2: see what you have to say, because you know, when
- 14:09Speaker 2: these big time athletes come to town, Tyler, and then you,
- 14:12Speaker 2: you know, and I give you a little hey this
- 14:14Speaker 2: guy here, you know, give you a little scouting report,
- 14:16Speaker 2: if I will, you usually come back and go, holy crap,
- 14:19Speaker 2: you were right. That frigging guy is huge, you know
- 14:22Speaker 2: or whatever it is.
- 14:23Speaker 3: You know.
- 14:23Speaker 2: Yeah, you're always like super excited about guys from outside
- 14:26Speaker 2: the county because you just don't you.
- 14:28Speaker 4: Know, I just don't know about it. It's all you're saying,
- 14:30Speaker 4: like when I saw a Mecca Buka for the first
- 14:32Speaker 4: time up, Yes.
- 14:33Speaker 3: I remember, you were losing your mind.
- 14:35Speaker 4: Yeah, and he had that pick six where he ran
- 14:37Speaker 4: by me and gave me a cold Yeah, I mean
- 14:39Speaker 4: it was that windy I mean it was just like,
- 14:42Speaker 4: holy cow. There have been times like when I saw
- 14:45Speaker 4: Zach Watson up close, when I there's certain guys that
- 14:49Speaker 4: and I'll never forget them, you know, there's just certain
- 14:52Speaker 4: guys it's like holy cow. Yeah, I love it when
- 14:54Speaker 4: that happens. And so this will be one that I
- 14:56Speaker 4: will see in person. So I'm really really to see
- 15:01Speaker 4: what he does. And on the defensive side of the ball,
- 15:02Speaker 4: plays defensive line, so it's very, very very interesting to
- 15:07Speaker 4: see how he'll do.
- 15:09Speaker 3: It's kind of funny, Tether.
- 15:10Speaker 2: There's been so many guys over the years where like
- 15:13Speaker 2: you know, maybe weren't on the best team or a
- 15:15Speaker 2: team that I necessarily needed to go see or you
- 15:19Speaker 2: know whatever. And I always found a way to go
- 15:23Speaker 2: see certain guys though, you know, I remember John Lesser
- 15:28Speaker 2: was a was an athlete over at Liberty Christian over
- 15:32Speaker 2: in the Tri Cities, and he was breaking like he
- 15:37Speaker 2: or excuse me, state and like NFHS records, uh for
- 15:42Speaker 2: for yards. He was an eight man guy, right, And
- 15:46Speaker 2: I remember his senior year. I was like, you know what,
- 15:48Speaker 2: I gotta go. I gotta drive over there. And they
- 15:50Speaker 2: were playing a random Thursday game against against Tushie the
- 15:55Speaker 2: Tushi Indians, and Tushi was really good that year, and
- 16:00Speaker 2: I just remember thinking to myself, I got to go
- 16:01Speaker 2: over It's the only opportunity I'm gonna get. I'm gonna
- 16:03Speaker 2: get to see this kid play high school football. And
- 16:05Speaker 2: I drove all the way over there, and it was
- 16:08Speaker 2: one of the greatest high school football games I've ever seen.
- 16:11Speaker 2: It came down to the final drive. Liberty Christian gets
- 16:14Speaker 2: the ball. He's the quarterback, and you know, he doesn't
- 16:17Speaker 2: throw a great ball, but he throws well enough in
- 16:20Speaker 2: eight man to you know, make the pass and he
- 16:24Speaker 2: drops back. It was like fourth and like twenty two
- 16:28Speaker 2: from like their own eight, and he drops back and
- 16:31Speaker 2: you just think, like, oh, well, he's gonna have to
- 16:33Speaker 2: chuck one downfield. He drops back, there's nobody open, and
- 16:37Speaker 2: so he just takes off and he scrambles for like
- 16:39Speaker 2: thirty and just ends up leading the team down the field.
- 16:43Speaker 2: And that's one of those ones where I'm like, I'm
- 16:45Speaker 2: so glad they end up winning the game, you know.
- 16:47Speaker 2: And afterwards I took a picture with him because I
- 16:49Speaker 2: was just like, this guy's ridiculous.
- 16:51Speaker 3: You know.
- 16:51Speaker 2: Now the kid is, you know, doing off, doing great
- 16:54Speaker 2: things in the world. And he's living in the Seattle
- 16:57Speaker 2: area now and every now and then I run into
- 16:59Speaker 2: him at Seahawks game are like different things. They'll send
- 17:01Speaker 2: me a message and say, hey, are you hearing. I'm like, yeah,
- 17:03Speaker 2: of course he wants to say hi, and you know,
- 17:05Speaker 2: that's awesome. Yeah, but that's one of those things, like
- 17:07Speaker 2: you always find a way to see certain guys. I
- 17:09Speaker 2: think I've told you before. I wanted to see Taylor
- 17:12Speaker 2: Rapp in high school. Drove all the way up there
- 17:14Speaker 2: on like the second play of the game. He twisted
- 17:16Speaker 2: his angle, drove all drove all the way up there,
- 17:19Speaker 2: and he played two plays and then was done for
- 17:21Speaker 2: the night. And I was just like, are you kidding me?
- 17:25Speaker 2: But yeah, that's uh. I think that's gonna be a
- 17:27Speaker 2: good one. It's it's kind of power verse finesse, and uh,
- 17:31Speaker 2: you never know, you never you just never know. In
- 17:33Speaker 2: these games. If Okanagan can be tough and physical and
- 17:37Speaker 2: just wear them down, it could be you know, they
- 17:39Speaker 2: could do it.
- 17:40Speaker 4: I think there's gonna be like three or four games
- 17:42Speaker 4: this week. They are going to be like three point
- 17:45Speaker 4: games or less, you know, And I think this is
- 17:47Speaker 4: one of them. Which is great because sometimes when there's
- 17:51Speaker 4: a game that's like that, there's so much easier to write,
- 17:54Speaker 4: Like it just kind of writes itself, you know. Yeah,
- 17:57Speaker 4: and it just because it's just it just flows because
- 17:59Speaker 4: there's so much to talk about. All of a sudden,
- 18:01Speaker 4: you got this huge story and you're like, oh, this
- 18:03Speaker 4: is this is awesome. That being said, coach would be
- 18:06Speaker 4: will be writing about this game. But I'm definitely gonna
- 18:10Speaker 4: go out there because I want to check it out
- 18:11Speaker 4: for a little bit and get some pictures and then
- 18:14Speaker 4: before I head out to Civic Stating, which we'll talk
- 18:17Speaker 4: about a little later.
- 18:19Speaker 2: Tyler, did you happen to see the text message that
- 18:21Speaker 2: you and I just got?
- 18:23Speaker 4: No? Is it a textbook.
- 18:25Speaker 2: It's a text from our good friend well Blake Whitman.
- 18:30Speaker 2: It says, the night before I went to listen to
- 18:32Speaker 2: the preview, this Thursday game is kicking my butt.
- 18:36Speaker 3: I told him.
- 18:37Speaker 2: I said, Tyler literally mentioned your name about five minutes ago. Yeah,
- 18:42Speaker 2: what a what a nut?
- 18:43Speaker 3: Huh? I mean, it's.
- 18:44Speaker 4: Crazy because I'm sure that's part of his thing. It's
- 18:47Speaker 4: the night before the game he listens to the preview,
- 18:49Speaker 4: and now there's no preview going on and little does
- 18:51Speaker 4: he know we're actually recording it as he Texas.
- 18:54Speaker 2: As he's texting us. I'm surprised he hasn't tried to
- 18:56Speaker 2: call one of us, honestly. Yeah, and to and oh
- 19:00Speaker 2: Lynnen Christian one on one six pm at Linden Christian
- 19:03Speaker 2: High School. Blaine also playing a six pm game unfortunately,
- 19:06Speaker 2: other side of the mountains. They are two and o.
- 19:09Speaker 2: The Border Rights headed over to take on the Shelan Goats.
- 19:12Speaker 2: They are one and one. That is a six pm
- 19:15Speaker 2: game at Shelan High School. I mean, I know that
- 19:20Speaker 2: teams from Wakam County played she Shelan a couple of
- 19:22Speaker 2: times recently, but I feel like it hasn't gone very
- 19:25Speaker 2: well for the teams from Walkam County. But yeah, Shelane,
- 19:29Speaker 2: well just one of those one A schools that always
- 19:31Speaker 2: seems to be pretty good. So maybe this is going
- 19:34Speaker 2: to be a good test for Blaine.
- 19:35Speaker 4: I think it'll definitely be a better test than they've
- 19:37Speaker 4: had the first two weeks. Yes, they've played Meridian the
- 19:40Speaker 4: last two years. I think two years ago it was
- 19:44Speaker 4: at Meridian. I was there and it was one of
- 19:47Speaker 4: those games where I think we all picked Meridian and
- 19:49Speaker 4: then they lost by like two or two or three scores.
- 19:51Speaker 4: It was just kind of like a downer. It was like,
- 19:53Speaker 4: what the heck's going on? It lost something like, you know,
- 19:57Speaker 4: twenty three to eight or some weird score like that.
- 20:00Speaker 4: And so then when they played last year, I think
- 20:04Speaker 4: it was like it was like a one point game.
- 20:05Speaker 4: I think they lost like twenty eight twenty seven or
- 20:07Speaker 4: something like that. So and so I've seen them the
- 20:11Speaker 4: last couple of years and they kind of they kind
- 20:13Speaker 4: of remind me. Not the style, not the four, not
- 20:16Speaker 4: the scheme of Mount Baker, but they kind of remind
- 20:19Speaker 4: me of Mount Baker, like they're they're they're tough, bit hard,
- 20:23Speaker 4: they're they're not huge, but they play bigger than they are.
- 20:28Speaker 4: And of course, you know, having seen them the last
- 20:30Speaker 4: couple of years, I have no clue who's coming back.
- 20:33Speaker 4: I don't I couldn't tell you one player on the
- 20:35Speaker 4: team or anything like that. But when you see a
- 20:37Speaker 4: team that like plays hard and hustles and stuff, a
- 20:40Speaker 4: lot of that's the culture and the coaching and stuff.
- 20:43Speaker 4: So you know, if that's still there, then I would
- 20:45Speaker 4: imagine all that other stuff is gonna trickle down and
- 20:47Speaker 4: still still be there. Blaine on the other side, is
- 20:49Speaker 4: rolling right now. They have a ton of confidence. Uh,
- 20:52Speaker 4: this will be a tougher battle. They've played their first
- 20:54Speaker 4: two games against less opponents, they've played them at home.
- 20:57Speaker 4: This will be a long road trip. You're probably gonna,
- 21:00Speaker 4: you know, cut out of school early to head over there.
- 21:04Speaker 4: And this this got moved from seven pm to six
- 21:07Speaker 4: pm just recently. And it was funny because I was
- 21:11Speaker 4: out at Blayne High School tonight covering soccer and volleyball
- 21:15Speaker 4: and the Blayane athletic director, Chas Cock, comes up and
- 21:18Speaker 4: he goes, are you going to Schland Freddy? I kind
- 21:20Speaker 4: of said it in jest, because it seems like every
- 21:22Speaker 4: time he's you know, he just sees me all over
- 21:24Speaker 4: the place. And I kind of said, hmmm, I don't
- 21:27Speaker 4: think so. He just started laughing. But this it will
- 21:31Speaker 4: be a heck of a trip. And if if Blaine
- 21:34Speaker 4: can come out on top in this one, that's not
- 21:38Speaker 4: just because you know, hey, we're three and oh and
- 21:41Speaker 4: all this stuff, and I'd have to look up the
- 21:43Speaker 4: last time they were three and oh, but I think
- 21:45Speaker 4: that what might have been twenty sixteen actually, But I
- 21:48Speaker 4: think that when you when you're on top and things
- 21:52Speaker 4: are going in the trajectory that you want and everything's happening,
- 21:56Speaker 4: and you have a long bus ride back after a win.
- 22:00Speaker 4: That just can add so much more to the camaraderie
- 22:03Speaker 4: and the best you know what I mean. Like it's
- 22:05Speaker 4: like you're on a roll and then you get to
- 22:07Speaker 4: sit with all your buddies and talk about it for hours. Yeah,
- 22:10Speaker 4: we're gonna stop somewhere and get something to eat maybe
- 22:12Speaker 4: and talk about you know. It's like all those things
- 22:15Speaker 4: combined and it's like it's like if you can get
- 22:18Speaker 4: get that win and have that bus dride back, that's
- 22:21Speaker 4: just a huge thing for what coach Olsen's trying to
- 22:24Speaker 4: build there. And I'm not gonna say trying to build anymore.
- 22:27Speaker 4: He is building there. So that's that's gonna be a
- 22:30Speaker 4: really cool thing. And I just imagine Blaine's just gonna
- 22:33Speaker 4: play you know, Blaine bullyball where they're just bigger up front.
- 22:37Speaker 4: You know, run run, run, and play really fly around defense.
- 22:41Speaker 4: Both those defensive ends get after it. They force you
- 22:44Speaker 4: into bad situations and they take advantage of it. And
- 22:47Speaker 4: great special teams. So all those things combined and it's
- 22:50Speaker 4: it could be a really great thing for the border rights.
- 22:52Speaker 3: I just want you to know, Tyler, you're wrong. Okay,
- 22:56Speaker 3: it wasn't twenty sixteen.
- 22:59Speaker 4: Oh they didn't go three twenty or they did, but
- 23:01Speaker 4: they've done it so sooner.
- 23:02Speaker 3: Since, Oh they haven't. They didn't do it in twenty sixteen,
- 23:04Speaker 3: I can tell you that much. Okay.
- 23:06Speaker 2: Started off with a win against Nooksack, a win against Meridian,
- 23:09Speaker 2: and then they lost a Seed Drow.
- 23:10Speaker 4: The Sie Drow, that's right, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Then and they actually lost pretty bad fifty two to twenty.
- 23:16Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 23:16Speaker 4: Sea Drow's loaded that year. Yeah.
- 23:18Speaker 3: Well, I mean how many Yeah.
- 23:20Speaker 4: They're always pretty dank good. Well, then I'm gonna say it.
- 23:22Speaker 4: Maybe maybe it was.
- 23:24Speaker 2: The year before they beat NWHS New West maybe yeah,
- 23:31Speaker 2: with our guy Farhand might have been the head coach there,
- 23:34Speaker 2: granted Falls, and then they lost to Ferndale. Yeah, I mean,
- 23:39Speaker 2: let's just go back one more. How about twenty fourteen.
- 23:41Speaker 2: Let's just see twenty fourteen win win loss again. I mean,
- 23:45Speaker 2: they they're they're pretty good at that. KHS, I don't
- 23:48Speaker 2: know who KHS. Colowna Colowna High School fifty four to
- 23:52Speaker 2: twenty eight, Granted Falls fifty six to six and then
- 23:55Speaker 2: lost to Ferndale. So uh yeah, I just want to
- 24:00Speaker 2: make sure you knew that you were wrong.
- 24:02Speaker 4: Okay, Well, when I don't have very often when I
- 24:05Speaker 4: do the preview, I'm gonna put in there somewhere they
- 24:08Speaker 4: did this. This could be the first time they go
- 24:10Speaker 4: three and oh since and I'm going to research it
- 24:12Speaker 4: and find it.
- 24:13Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sure I'll take you probably about two minutes.
- 24:15Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see. Okay, what are we doing here? Blaine
- 24:19Speaker 2: two and oh Shellane one on one, six pm over
- 24:22Speaker 2: in Shelan Tyler. You mentioned that you're gonna head to
- 24:25Speaker 2: Civic Stadium, So let's go there. One in one Lakewood
- 24:29Speaker 2: Cougars come to town to take on the Seahome Mariners.
- 24:31Speaker 2: Also one in one that is a seven pm game
- 24:33Speaker 2: there at all Civic Stadium. Uh yeah, Lakewood. You know
- 24:38Speaker 2: they kind of took it to Bellingham last week.
- 24:43Speaker 3: Uh.
- 24:43Speaker 2: This is a Lakewood team that we know, we know
- 24:46Speaker 2: always has athletes. They every now and then have a
- 24:51Speaker 2: team that is really tough. And I know that some
- 24:53Speaker 2: people have said, hey, this team could actually be better
- 24:56Speaker 2: than maybe people are thinking.
- 24:58Speaker 3: Seahome.
- 24:58Speaker 2: On the other hand, you know, good Win Week one
- 25:02Speaker 2: over Marysville Pilchack and then kind of took one on
- 25:04Speaker 2: the chin last week. But I think we both know
- 25:08Speaker 2: they have the athletes to run with just about anybody
- 25:10Speaker 2: other than maybe maybe potentially Ana Chordus, but they got
- 25:14Speaker 2: the athletes to run with them. I mean, this could
- 25:16Speaker 2: be I think this could be one of those games
- 25:18Speaker 2: that maybe has scores up in the thirties.
- 25:20Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I was just going to say the same thing.
- 25:22Speaker 4: And this is another one of those ones where I
- 25:24Speaker 4: think will be really really close and it'll be you know,
- 25:27Speaker 4: kind of you know, whoever has the ball last type
- 25:31Speaker 4: of thing. And I really think that what could be
- 25:34Speaker 4: really helpful for Seahome and this is Grady Evans because
- 25:38Speaker 4: if let's say some point he gets a field goal
- 25:42Speaker 4: in there, maybe it's right before the half or whatever. Yeah,
- 25:45Speaker 4: and it could be a back and forth game where
- 25:47Speaker 4: you know, maybe it turns into seems up by ten
- 25:50Speaker 4: and lake With then is you know, down, and then
- 25:53Speaker 4: and then they're up by three, up by ten, up
- 25:55Speaker 4: by three because of that field goal, or maybe it's
- 25:58Speaker 4: you know, up by three but and then down by four,
- 26:01Speaker 4: you know type thing where Lakewood always is chasing that
- 26:04Speaker 4: little field goal you know what, you know what I mean,
- 26:06Speaker 4: I think that field goal could really help out and
- 26:09Speaker 4: and Grady Evans is you know, he's one field goal
- 26:11Speaker 4: away from tying the school record for career field goals.
- 26:14Speaker 4: I mean, they have no problem you know, going you know,
- 26:18Speaker 4: kick kick kicking a field goal, and he's got you know,
- 26:21Speaker 4: he can kick him from forty yards and then eat
- 26:24Speaker 4: pretty easily. So I think that that could be a
- 26:27Speaker 4: huge bonus. Or if it just happens at the end,
- 26:29Speaker 4: who knows, this is one of those games that could
- 26:31Speaker 4: go into overtime, you never know. Down the fast track
- 26:35Speaker 4: at Civic, I really am excited about this game. I
- 26:38Speaker 4: think I think it's I think you hit it on
- 26:40Speaker 4: the head where it could be a thirty eight thirty
- 26:42Speaker 4: five kind of game, you know, And it's gonna be
- 26:47Speaker 4: a lot of dynamic plays, a lot of big stats,
- 26:51Speaker 4: and you're gonna see they're gonna you're gonna see them
- 26:54Speaker 4: use all what is it, fifty three and a half
- 26:57Speaker 4: yards the width of the football field. You're gonna see
- 27:00Speaker 4: fifty three and thirty Yeah, something like that. You're gonna
- 27:02Speaker 4: see that whole width being used. Because you said it too.
- 27:05Speaker 4: With all the athletes that are gonna be on the
- 27:07Speaker 4: field on both sides. I'm really really excited to see
- 27:11Speaker 4: kind of how this one goes, just as far as
- 27:15Speaker 4: you know, what everything you can do, I can do
- 27:17Speaker 4: better type stuff. And this is also one of those
- 27:19Speaker 4: games that is really intriguing for the round of thirty
- 27:22Speaker 4: two because these are teams here that are kind of
- 27:26Speaker 4: in that next tier that could be you know, getting
- 27:30Speaker 4: that you know, close to that that like that fourth spot,
- 27:33Speaker 4: that coveted fourth spot right now that you know, I mean,
- 27:37Speaker 4: obviously it's early in the season, but you know, if
- 27:39Speaker 4: you talk to most people, you're gonna say, well, Anacordus, Lindon,
- 27:42Speaker 4: and Archbishop are kind of heavy favorites for the top three,
- 27:45Speaker 4: and then that fourth spot is completely up for grabs.
- 27:49Speaker 4: And you know it's when they start playing each other
- 27:53Speaker 4: that's where it gets interesting. See Home beating Mary's Vielle
- 27:55Speaker 4: Pilchuck was huge in that respect. Squalik And beating Marysville
- 27:58Speaker 4: Pilchuck was huge in that respect. This game will be
- 28:01Speaker 4: big when Sea Home and Squad can play each other
- 28:03Speaker 4: will be big. So all these games are gonna be huge,
- 28:05Speaker 4: just kind of that first one where you know, it's like, oh, okay,
- 28:09Speaker 4: we'll see how it goes. They both already have a
- 28:11Speaker 4: conference loss against one of those Big three teams, so
- 28:16Speaker 4: so yeah, this one is gonna be awesome. I don't
- 28:19Speaker 4: know how much more. I haven't been to Civic Stadium
- 28:21Speaker 4: since they've been doing this remodeling and stuff, so I
- 28:24Speaker 4: have no clue kind of how things will go that way.
- 28:28Speaker 4: I'm probably gonna want to take stats at this game,
- 28:30Speaker 4: so I'll probably be up in the booth. I'll have
- 28:33Speaker 4: to wait and see what Randy Small says about the weather.
- 28:36Speaker 4: But yeah, this is one that I am very very
- 28:39Speaker 4: excited about. And I've seen some fun stealing Lakewood games
- 28:42Speaker 4: in the past.
- 28:44Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is yeah.
- 28:46Speaker 2: I mean, I just I truly believe, like if there
- 28:49Speaker 2: was like a oh, the game of the week when
- 28:53Speaker 2: it comes to like you know us on say Sunday
- 28:55Speaker 2: night or something. M hmm, I think this one has
- 28:58Speaker 2: maybe like there's this one and one coming up in
- 29:02Speaker 2: a couple that we're going to talk about here that
- 29:04Speaker 2: I think have the potential for some serious fireworks. I
- 29:07Speaker 2: just I really do. Again, Lakewood one and one, Sea
- 29:11Speaker 2: Home one and one, and by the way, both teams
- 29:14Speaker 2: I am I wrong? Here is this Lakewood lost the
- 29:18Speaker 2: Archbishop week one, I believe, right, and then beating Bellingham.
- 29:21Speaker 2: So this is yeah, you mentioned it. This is a
- 29:24Speaker 2: huge game as far as Northwest Conference goes. Yes, I
- 29:27Speaker 2: mean this is this is the league is just obviously
- 29:31Speaker 2: so tough in general. But now, I mean there's no
- 29:33Speaker 2: weeks off here really, right, I mean, just man, it's wild. Yeah,
- 29:38Speaker 2: seven pm, Civic Stadium, Tyler, You're you're gonna be out there? Yeah,
- 29:42Speaker 2: I mean, I mean I'm excited to hear about that.
- 29:44Speaker 3: One.
- 29:45Speaker 2: Bellingham zero and two. They are headed on the road
- 29:48Speaker 2: down to Ana Chordis to take on the defending state
- 29:51Speaker 2: champs Seahawks. They are two and zero after defeating UH
- 29:55Speaker 2: Seahome last week. That's a seven pm game, Tyler. I mean,
- 29:59Speaker 2: this is one where it's just it's really tough to
- 30:02Speaker 2: see much more than Anachordus really kind of doing what
- 30:06Speaker 2: Ana Chordas does.
- 30:07Speaker 3: I mean, that's just kind of who they are right now.
- 30:09Speaker 4: Yeah, Bellingham's gonna have to really capitalize on any mistakes.
- 30:14Speaker 4: They're gonna have to win the turnover battle. They're gonna
- 30:16Speaker 4: have to do a lot of things here. Uh to
- 30:18Speaker 4: stay with Ana Chordas Anta Chordas is just it just
- 30:21Speaker 4: it's too much. The machine is too strong, it's too fast. Yeah,
- 30:25Speaker 4: and you know this is a game where Bellingham probably
- 30:28Speaker 4: would have enjoyed playing them a little later in the
- 30:31Speaker 4: season perhaps, Uh you know, coming in playing Lakewood, I
- 30:34Speaker 4: could say, okay, they could come in and play that
- 30:36Speaker 4: game and see how it goes and then boom, you
- 30:37Speaker 4: got anti Chordus right away. That's that's gonna be really
- 30:41Speaker 4: really tough. Bellingham's still looking for their first win of
- 30:44Speaker 4: the season, obviously their first conference win in five years
- 30:48Speaker 4: after now joining rejoining the conference. Uh, Anachordus looked, you know,
- 30:53Speaker 4: pretty darned smooth last week. There were some mistakes. There
- 30:56Speaker 4: were some overthrowers by the young quarterback. He definitely has
- 30:59Speaker 4: the arm, but but you know he just has to
- 31:01Speaker 4: kind of, you know, reel in the passes a little
- 31:04Speaker 4: bit more.
- 31:04Speaker 3: So.
- 31:05Speaker 4: There was a lot of incompletions. There's definitely things to
- 31:07Speaker 4: work on, and you know, like Coach Wood said on
- 31:11Speaker 4: the Coach's Corner last week, was that is that you
- 31:14Speaker 4: know there was some guys they sat in the second
- 31:17Speaker 4: half and things like that, and it jumped out to
- 31:19Speaker 4: a twenty eight to nothing lead in the first quarter,
- 31:21Speaker 4: so uh and it wasn't like they were just overpowering.
- 31:24Speaker 4: There were some things that went their way where the
- 31:26Speaker 4: kickoff bounced straight back into them and they just got it.
- 31:30Speaker 4: And there's a miscommunication and the turnover in a short
- 31:33Speaker 4: field and boom boom boom boo boom. So there's things
- 31:35Speaker 4: like that that happen and you cannot I mean, any
- 31:38Speaker 4: of those things against and of course you cannot let
- 31:40Speaker 4: any of those things happen and Rebellingham there and I
- 31:44Speaker 4: definitely need some things to happen their way. I don't
- 31:47Speaker 4: I know. They were missing a lot of guys in
- 31:48Speaker 4: their secondary last week. Holy cow, would this be the
- 31:51Speaker 4: worst week to have guys missing in your secondary? Because
- 31:54Speaker 4: they like they liked to fling it around, but obviously
- 31:57Speaker 4: but as well, they like to run the ball too.
- 32:00Speaker 4: There's a lot of these fly sweeps and different things
- 32:02Speaker 4: and get their athletes on the outside and there there
- 32:06Speaker 4: are a lot of there're a lot of fun to
- 32:07Speaker 4: watch and they're playing with a ton of confidence right now.
- 32:10Speaker 4: So we'll just have to wait and see how it goes.
- 32:13Speaker 4: But uh, I just hope Bellingham can just can just
- 32:16Speaker 4: stay with them and and and you know, hit him
- 32:18Speaker 4: hard and play just play, just play tough. You know,
- 32:20Speaker 4: that's what you got to do.
- 32:22Speaker 2: That is Bellingham own two Ana Chortis two and oh
- 32:25Speaker 2: seven pm on Friday at Anna Cortis Squalicum Archbishop Murphy
- 32:30Speaker 2: both teams two and oh on the season. That will
- 32:33Speaker 2: be down there at Terry Ennis Stadium at Archbishop Murphy
- 32:37Speaker 2: High School seven pm. Uh, this is one Tyler that
- 32:41Speaker 2: I think we're going to find a little something out
- 32:42Speaker 2: about Squalicum. I mean, we we found out a little
- 32:45Speaker 2: bit about them last week in a big win over
- 32:48Speaker 2: Marysville Pilchuck. But this is one of those games where
- 32:52Speaker 2: Archbishop Murphy is is is tough. I mean, they are
- 32:55Speaker 2: a good team this year and uh, Squalicum, I think
- 33:01Speaker 2: you and I both maybe feel kind of good about
- 33:03Speaker 2: this team.
- 33:05Speaker 3: But also yeah, I.
- 33:07Speaker 2: Mean we we're gonna find out a little bit something here, Tyler,
- 33:10Speaker 2: And I think this is maybe one of those games
- 33:12Speaker 2: also that could have some serious fireworks to it.
- 33:15Speaker 4: Yeah, I definitely think so. I think this will be
- 33:18Speaker 4: the biggest toughest opponent for each of these teams that
- 33:20Speaker 4: they face so far this year. It is down there
- 33:25Speaker 4: every time we talk about a game down there. You
- 33:26Speaker 4: mentioned something about a pizza place that's close by.
- 33:29Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, Brooklyn Brothers Pizzas. It's not too far
- 33:33Speaker 2: south of the I don't know what's what's what exit
- 33:36Speaker 2: it is you take, but there's really only one exit
- 33:38Speaker 2: to go to or to get off to go to
- 33:41Speaker 2: arch Pitcher Murphy. You get on, Uh, it's Bothel Everett
- 33:44Speaker 2: Highways is what it is when you go through Bothel.
- 33:46Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what, but basically when you turn
- 33:49Speaker 2: off of there, it's only a couple of minutes south
- 33:53Speaker 2: of the of the main drag that takes it Archibitche
- 33:55Speaker 2: Murphy High School.
- 33:56Speaker 3: I'll tell you what.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Go in and get the Bowery. It's it's got peppera
- 33:59Speaker 2: It's basically the pepperoni and sausage. But my goodness, it's
- 34:03Speaker 2: thin crust tyler to the type that you fold and
- 34:05Speaker 2: just it's got the crunch of the crust.
- 34:08Speaker 3: Oh.
- 34:08Speaker 2: I'm sitting here salivating just thinking about it. I mean,
- 34:12Speaker 2: if it wasn't ten forty at night, I'd go get
- 34:14Speaker 2: a slice.
- 34:16Speaker 4: I know exactly what you mean. That's oh man, I've
- 34:19Speaker 4: never been there, but I as you're describing it, I'm like, yes, perfection,
- 34:22Speaker 4: keep going.
- 34:23Speaker 2: Yes, And Tyler, here's the thing too, Like, so their
- 34:26Speaker 2: cheeses are top quality, you know what I mean, Like
- 34:28Speaker 2: they use high quality ingredients. Now, it's very typical of
- 34:33Speaker 2: you know. I mean, I don't know if you can
- 34:36Speaker 2: call it like mom and pop because they've got like
- 34:38Speaker 2: five stores, right, so, but it is still very much
- 34:41Speaker 2: mom and pop. Like the people behind the counter, like
- 34:43Speaker 2: the they're family and they're wearing Yankee stuff because they're
- 34:46Speaker 2: all from Brooklyn, you know. But the thing about the place, yeah, sure,
- 34:51Speaker 2: it's a little bit expensive, but I'll tell you what.
- 34:54Speaker 2: I go there every year for my birthday. Every year,
- 34:58Speaker 2: you see me pick up my friend Scott and I
- 35:00Speaker 2: reduce him, you know, into my car. And every year
- 35:03Speaker 2: we do that. We're going to Brooklyn Brothers. That's what
- 35:05Speaker 2: we do, you know. And man, I mean, you pay
- 35:09Speaker 2: more for it, but the quality is just unbelievable.
- 35:12Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 35:13Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't beat that.
- 35:14Speaker 3: Yeah, no, not at all.
- 35:16Speaker 4: But as far as the game goes, you know, it's
- 35:19Speaker 4: there is Yeah, there's a football game.
- 35:20Speaker 3: Okay.
- 35:21Speaker 4: Yeah, so yeah, this one will be really really fun
- 35:24Speaker 4: to see because you know, two years ago it was
- 35:28Speaker 4: all Squawk. Last year it was all Archbishop and so
- 35:31Speaker 4: many of these Squalicum kids. You know that our seniors
- 35:35Speaker 4: now played as sophomores, so they've kind of gone through
- 35:38Speaker 4: the whole, you know, three hundred and sixty degrees of
- 35:40Speaker 4: facing the Wildcats here and so this will be really interesting.
- 35:46Speaker 4: Squalkum has the athletes to just you know, break a
- 35:49Speaker 4: big play here and there. It's going to be how
- 35:51Speaker 4: do you do upfront against this against a really big
- 35:54Speaker 4: Archbishop team, And you know, it's I think that I
- 35:59Speaker 4: think whull Burke has really been coming along really steady
- 36:03Speaker 4: as a quarterback, so this will be his biggest challenge
- 36:07Speaker 4: to date. But he's met every challenge so far. It
- 36:10Speaker 4: hasn't been a lot of them, but he's just he's
- 36:12Speaker 4: just done really well. And we've talked about the play
- 36:15Speaker 4: calling the coach Lucy has I was thinking about this
- 36:17Speaker 4: earlier in the week and I don't know if I
- 36:19Speaker 4: can put it across in words as well as I
- 36:22Speaker 4: had it in my mind. But when you watch Squalakum's offense,
- 36:27Speaker 4: it kind of reminds me of like how the most
- 36:30Speaker 4: people would be like playing Madden or NCAA football. Yeah,
- 36:35Speaker 4: and what I'm What I mean by that is they
- 36:38Speaker 4: kind of like have their set of plays that that
- 36:43Speaker 4: they can run really well, Like they got it down
- 36:46Speaker 4: and they're and they're the kind of plays that like
- 36:48Speaker 4: you would run on a video game, if that makes sense.
- 36:51Speaker 4: Like it's it's I don't know how to explain it,
- 36:53Speaker 4: but it's like whenever I see an NFL team do
- 36:56Speaker 4: that play, action to the left, roll to the right,
- 36:58Speaker 4: and dump it to the full back for seven yards.
- 37:01Speaker 3: Yeah, like it.
- 37:02Speaker 4: Works every single time, I'm like, how come but other
- 37:05Speaker 4: teams do don't do plays? Don't don't do that more often?
- 37:09Speaker 4: And whenever I see Squalicum run their offense, I'm always like,
- 37:13Speaker 4: the Squalcab's the only team I see that runs that place.
- 37:15Speaker 4: Squalcab's the only team I see that runs that play,
- 37:17Speaker 4: And it's like, how come other teams don't do that?
- 37:19Speaker 3: It looks so easy?
- 37:21Speaker 4: And I think that coach Lucy just has a way
- 37:23Speaker 4: of getting it detailed so well to make it look
- 37:27Speaker 4: easy and it's really not. And and I think that
- 37:31Speaker 4: it's it's so fun to watch that, and it kind
- 37:34Speaker 4: of it almost kind of reminds me a little bit
- 37:35Speaker 4: of like Ferndale's wing tea, especially like back in the nineties.
- 37:39Speaker 4: I mean, they ran like eight different plays, but they
- 37:41Speaker 4: ran them so perfectly that you couldn't stop them and
- 37:45Speaker 4: squalic them when they were rolling there for a while.
- 37:49Speaker 4: You know, I'm talking like between three and the last
- 37:51Speaker 4: three to seven years, Like there was a bit there
- 37:53Speaker 4: was a run there, and that offense was really clicking,
- 37:57Speaker 4: and it's starting to kind of get back into that
- 38:00Speaker 4: where everyone's on the right path and everyone's on the
- 38:02Speaker 4: right page and and it's looking really good. Does that
- 38:06Speaker 4: make sense though, kind of what I'm talking about.
- 38:08Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 38:08Speaker 2: No, So here's the thing. So first off, the play
- 38:10Speaker 2: that you're talking about, I mean, we've got it in
- 38:13Speaker 2: our playbook and it works almost every time, that little
- 38:16Speaker 2: roll out and you just dump it off to a
- 38:18Speaker 2: it's yeah. I mean, I don't want to say what
- 38:21Speaker 2: we call it because I don't want to put that
- 38:22Speaker 2: out there, but.
- 38:24Speaker 4: It's a guy that's like it's guy. It's a guy
- 38:25Speaker 4: that's blocking and then he peels.
- 38:27Speaker 2: Off, yeah, or or he's underneath and yeah, he's coming
- 38:32Speaker 2: back across the formation and then the you know, he
- 38:35Speaker 2: The Seahawks used to run it all the time, with
- 38:37Speaker 2: Doug Baldwin. Yes, and Doug Baldwen was open one hundred
- 38:40Speaker 2: out of one hundred times, you know what I mean.
- 38:41Speaker 2: And it's like, I mean, he was open one hundred
- 38:44Speaker 2: and two out of one hundred, you know what I mean,
- 38:45Speaker 2: Like he's always open. It's just like you know the
- 38:48Speaker 2: spider two white banana that John Gruden us to talk about, right,
- 38:51Speaker 2: like you throw it to the full back because he's
- 38:52Speaker 2: always open. Well on that it's the age or it's
- 38:55Speaker 2: the the y or for the Seahawks, it was a
- 38:59Speaker 2: you know, they to run well. And what they would
- 39:01Speaker 2: do is they would like to they would run Baldwin
- 39:03Speaker 2: in motion across the formation and then have them thrown
- 39:05Speaker 2: the brakes and come back the other way, you know,
- 39:07Speaker 2: and it works. It always works. And you know there's
- 39:11Speaker 2: certain plays like that that, yeah, you're right, not a
- 39:13Speaker 2: lot of people use them, but the ones that do,
- 39:16Speaker 2: you know, they're always open. So but yeah, I mean,
- 39:19Speaker 2: I I there's certain things about Squalcum and and I
- 39:22Speaker 2: think you're right in the I think you're right in
- 39:26Speaker 2: the like they kind of got it, they kind of
- 39:29Speaker 2: got their groove back, you know, and it's like you
- 39:31Speaker 2: look at it, you go all right. We knew Lucy
- 39:34Speaker 2: was going to get it going again, and it was
- 39:36Speaker 2: just a matter of could he get a quarterback that
- 39:39Speaker 2: can do the do the little things that he needs.
- 39:42Speaker 2: You know, he doesn't need a bran Hepner throwing the ball,
- 39:45Speaker 2: you know, seventy yards down field or anything. You know,
- 39:48Speaker 2: he doesn't need that. But what he needs is he
- 39:50Speaker 2: needs a guy that can make the plays. And he's
- 39:52Speaker 2: got that. So it's gonna be interesting. I mean we're,
- 39:55Speaker 2: like I said, we're gonna find out a lot about
- 39:56Speaker 2: Squalcum this week. So Squallalcum two and o Archbishop Murphy
- 40:02Speaker 2: two and o down there at arch Bishop Murphy High School,
- 40:04Speaker 2: Trianna Stadium, seven pm, Ferndale, oh and two. Weird to say, Ferndale,
- 40:09Speaker 2: oh and two headed down to quill See the stadium,
- 40:12Speaker 2: which by the way, has become like a Wakham County
- 40:14Speaker 2: South home down there, third week in a row with
- 40:17Speaker 2: the team coming in down What do we got week
- 40:20Speaker 2: for anybody? I mean, is there another team that plays there?
- 40:24Speaker 2: I mean I don't know, but yeah, Marysville Gatchel. They
- 40:27Speaker 2: are two and oh maybe the first time in school history,
- 40:30Speaker 2: I don't even know, but they are two and O
- 40:32Speaker 2: taking on Ferndale seven pm. Like I said, down there
- 40:36Speaker 2: a quill see the stadium Tyler rematched from last year's
- 40:39Speaker 2: game that did not go the way of the Golden Eagles.
- 40:43Speaker 2: I think maybe they've got a little bit of a
- 40:44Speaker 2: chip on their shoulder at little revenge they're looking for here.
- 40:48Speaker 4: It was of such a weird game last year, and
- 40:51Speaker 4: that was when I was home sick and I had
- 40:53Speaker 4: like four different screens on, and every time I kept
- 40:56Speaker 4: peeking over there, I was just if they didn't Like
- 41:00Speaker 4: sometimes on NFHS, they don't have a score, it just
- 41:02Speaker 4: says zero zero the whole Yeah.
- 41:03Speaker 3: Yeah, and maybe the most annoying thing about that, And well.
- 41:09Speaker 4: It's really weird because one time I slide logged into
- 41:12Speaker 4: a game as the first quarter said it was twelve
- 41:13Speaker 4: to nine when it really was zero zero. So you
- 41:16Speaker 4: know that happens too. But last year's game was so strange,
- 41:20Speaker 4: like if they if you never saw the score, you
- 41:23Speaker 4: just sat back and just kind of casually watched the
- 41:25Speaker 4: game while you were, you know, doing something else, and
- 41:29Speaker 4: you're just kind of looking at every once in a while.
- 41:30Speaker 4: You would think Ferndale won that game by three touchdowns
- 41:33Speaker 4: like what they dominated in at most of most moments
- 41:37Speaker 4: during the game, they just lost it fourteen thirteen or
- 41:40Speaker 4: whatever the score was, So it was I think it
- 41:44Speaker 4: was one of those games like they outgained them. They
- 41:46Speaker 4: you know, they did everything right. They were lined up
- 41:48Speaker 4: for a game when he field goal, it gets blocked
- 41:51Speaker 4: and that's the game. Mary's will pilcher, Mary's mcgetchel excuse me,
- 41:55Speaker 4: did the right things at the right moments and won
- 41:58Speaker 4: the game. And they were in the middle of that
- 42:00Speaker 4: magical run where they kept winning by one and and
- 42:04Speaker 4: I just think, I can't see this Ferndale team going
- 42:07Speaker 4: oh and three. I can't see this coaching staff letting
- 42:10Speaker 4: it happen, going to own three. But Getchels have improved
- 42:15Speaker 4: that each of the last three or four years. They've
- 42:17Speaker 4: just gotten better and better. And and Ferndo right now,
- 42:21Speaker 4: it was a heartbreaking loss last week. They had some
- 42:24Speaker 4: really really good moments moving the ball and you know,
- 42:28Speaker 4: just stuff like that, but they had some breakdowns in
- 42:30Speaker 4: the secondary that you know, that was one of the
- 42:33Speaker 4: things going in the season. When I talked to coach
- 42:35Speaker 4: Blanco was you know, there's a lot of you know,
- 42:39Speaker 4: you got to replace basically everybody in the secondary. I mean,
- 42:42Speaker 4: you know, Bishop Bootsie was a three year starter. Connor
- 42:45Speaker 4: Walker was a three year starter. Like, these are guys
- 42:47Speaker 4: that were doing it for a long time, and you
- 42:50Speaker 4: kind of you always kind of had a guy back
- 42:52Speaker 4: there that could kind of right the ship, you know,
- 42:55Speaker 4: and and even when you know, I remember there are
- 42:59Speaker 4: games like and when Connor Walker was out, like they
- 43:02Speaker 4: move Bishop to safety and he can kind of direct
- 43:04Speaker 4: the defense and call things out and kind of get
- 43:06Speaker 4: everyone lined up. And and right now all those guys
- 43:09Speaker 4: are gone. I mean, they have some athletes out there,
- 43:11Speaker 4: but this is their first time really being under the lights.
- 43:14Speaker 4: And there was just some miscommunication at times. And I
- 43:18Speaker 4: guarantee you that this staff has got it, got it fixed,
- 43:22Speaker 4: because they see that stuff and you know, they're just
- 43:25Speaker 4: like they once once a kid can see it on film,
- 43:28Speaker 4: it could really change some things and open some eyes
- 43:31Speaker 4: and then they understand. You know, the coach has been
- 43:34Speaker 4: saying this over and over again, and now it's starting
- 43:36Speaker 4: to click. And a lot of kids, and you probably
- 43:39Speaker 4: you probably deal with with this is a lot of kids.
- 43:42Speaker 4: Kids should ask questions. If they don't know, ask the question. Yes,
- 43:45Speaker 4: a lot of kids just they just don't want to
- 43:47Speaker 4: ask the question, and then it and then it's something
- 43:49Speaker 4: eats them on Friday night, and then they say and
- 43:52Speaker 4: then the coach says, well, why that happened, Well, I
- 43:54Speaker 4: didn't know that they should ask the question. So, you know,
- 43:58Speaker 4: if there's a kid out there that's listening to this
- 44:00Speaker 4: and you have a question about something, don't be bacheful.
- 44:02Speaker 4: Coaches want to make sure you're doing the right thing.
- 44:05Speaker 2: You're literally called coach for a reason. Coach like, let
- 44:10Speaker 2: us do it, but we need to know that you
- 44:12Speaker 2: don't know, you know, yeah, exactly, way better, way better
- 44:15Speaker 2: to find out in practice than to have it burn
- 44:17Speaker 2: you in a game.
- 44:18Speaker 4: One of the things I hear most of every practice
- 44:20Speaker 4: I go to is do they won't have any questions? Yep, No,
- 44:25Speaker 4: you hear that all the time, And you have to
- 44:27Speaker 4: speak up if you have a question.
- 44:28Speaker 2: Don't feel batcheful, but absolutely way better to answer the
- 44:31Speaker 2: question in practice than to have your hands on your
- 44:33Speaker 2: knees in a game looking down at the at the
- 44:35Speaker 2: ground going oh my goodness.
- 44:38Speaker 4: Yep exactly. So I just think that you know all
- 44:42Speaker 4: the question, all the questions have been answered. Uh. Ferndale
- 44:45Speaker 4: going on the road for the first time this year. Uh,
- 44:47Speaker 4: they have some you know, they're a little pent up
- 44:50Speaker 4: right now with some aggression. I think they're going to
- 44:52Speaker 4: try to take it out on the Chargers and and uh,
- 44:55Speaker 4: this could be this one could get a little a
- 44:58Speaker 4: little wild and crazy. But man, with the way the
- 45:01Speaker 4: season has been going so far, you just kind of
- 45:03Speaker 4: never know. And the Chargers are better than they've been recently,
- 45:06Speaker 4: So we'll see how it goes. I mean, I would
- 45:09Speaker 4: say Ferndale's favored, but you look at the records, oh
- 45:12Speaker 4: and two and two and oh, it's just kind of strange.
- 45:15Speaker 4: But Ferndale's got to get things right, and they just
- 45:18Speaker 4: they always seem to. I mean they always seem to.
- 45:21Speaker 4: You know, they've had a few sub five hundred records,
- 45:24Speaker 4: you know, not very many. I think like two of
- 45:26Speaker 4: them since coach Plankovic been there has been there and
- 45:29Speaker 4: this is his twentieth season. Is that they had coach
- 45:31Speaker 4: twentieth or twenty first summer in there, twenty first and
- 45:36Speaker 4: but I remember when they went like three and seven
- 45:38Speaker 4: one year. They beat Lyndon that year in Linden. That
- 45:41Speaker 4: was the Linden team that went to the state title. Game,
- 45:43Speaker 4: they lost a siegro But you know what I mean,
- 45:46Speaker 4: Like even when they have a you know, a record
- 45:49Speaker 4: that's not great, they're still pretty turned good. So they'll
- 45:52Speaker 4: they got to get it righted. I think they will hear,
- 45:55Speaker 4: but it's not going to be easy. But I think
- 45:57Speaker 4: them losing to the Marysville Getchel last year is kind
- 46:01Speaker 4: of a good thing for this year, you know what
- 46:03Speaker 4: I mean. So I think that's a little added incentive
- 46:05Speaker 4: and we'll just have to see what happens on Friday night.
- 46:08Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, Marysville gotil wins over Cedar Crest
- 46:12Speaker 2: and Mount Vernon, not exactly to powerhouse squads in a
- 46:16Speaker 2: Mount Vernon team that I saw week one who was
- 46:19Speaker 2: not very good and they only beat him twenty one seven.
- 46:21Speaker 2: So I don't know how good Marysville Gotel is. That's
- 46:24Speaker 2: not saying that, you know, Ferndale's just gonna walk all
- 46:27Speaker 2: over them, But I don't know that they are some
- 46:30Speaker 2: big time, massive opponent. But either way, I mean, Ferndale's
- 46:35Speaker 2: oh and two. So they better get it going here
- 46:38Speaker 2: because this is a league game, you know, I mean,
- 46:42Speaker 2: they can't they cannot lose a second league game. They
- 46:46Speaker 2: just can't do it. So yeah, I mean, we'll see
- 46:49Speaker 2: what happens here. But Ferndale Owen two, Marysville gotel two
- 46:52Speaker 2: and oh seven pm. Co will see the stadium down
- 46:54Speaker 2: in Marysville Centennial Secondary of British Columbia Tyler two and one.
- 46:59Speaker 2: They are coming to Bob Tisdale Field to take on
- 47:01Speaker 2: the Mountain Baker Mountaineers two and oh seven pm. Out
- 47:05Speaker 2: there in deming Uh Centennial Centaurs. I believe is that
- 47:10Speaker 2: what it is is? Yeah, which is like, isn't that
- 47:13Speaker 2: like a man and a horse, like like a dude,
- 47:16Speaker 2: that's like it's like a torso but like on a
- 47:18Speaker 2: horse or something.
- 47:19Speaker 3: What's going on there?
- 47:20Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, pretty much. I mean, uh, you know it's
- 47:25Speaker 4: it's it's you know, Canadian football. You just never know. Yeah,
- 47:29Speaker 4: And I think that, you know, this is a team
- 47:33Speaker 4: that from what I've heard, Coach Left gave me a
- 47:34Speaker 4: little scouting report and you know they and it's kind
- 47:37Speaker 4: of the same thing you hear, you know, decent little
- 47:40Speaker 4: quarterback run the spread, got some speed. You kind of
- 47:42Speaker 4: hear that a lot. And what's funny is that when
- 47:46Speaker 4: I saw Vancouver College, it was kind of the opposite.
- 47:48Speaker 4: They were like you know, they were they they were
- 47:51Speaker 4: big up front. They had that little five to four
- 47:55Speaker 4: running back that could you know, break out any tackle.
- 47:57Speaker 4: They did have some speed and some athletes on the
- 47:59Speaker 4: outside it, but they were just kind of they kind
- 48:02Speaker 4: of were the total package. We'll see about Centennial Secondary.
- 48:06Speaker 4: Like you said, they're two and one, so this is
- 48:07Speaker 4: their fourth game of the year, they've won two in
- 48:09Speaker 4: a row, and but Mount Baker being at home again. Also,
- 48:14Speaker 4: this is the only team now walkin county that has
- 48:16Speaker 4: not gone on the road yet. Yeah, on the road
- 48:18Speaker 4: until week four.
- 48:19Speaker 3: Wow.
- 48:20Speaker 4: So so yeah, so it's a it's a little uh,
- 48:24Speaker 4: it's a little nice thing for them. And the band
- 48:26Speaker 4: has got things down. I tell you what, I was
- 48:28Speaker 4: there for Week one. Band played the Star Spangled Banner,
- 48:30Speaker 4: knocked it out of the park. I went to a
- 48:34Speaker 4: place in week two as the Star Spangled Banner was
- 48:37Speaker 4: not their best song. I tell you what if a band,
- 48:39Speaker 4: if you're gonna nail a song, nail that.
- 48:41Speaker 3: One, please, Tyler. I went to an Old Day game
- 48:43Speaker 3: one time.
- 48:45Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're notorious, Like I could probably count a
- 48:49Speaker 2: one hand the amount of times I've even seen their
- 48:51Speaker 2: band at a game, Like and I've been to a
- 48:54Speaker 2: ton of Oday games over the years. Sure, and uh,
- 48:58Speaker 2: there was one time they were playing the national anthem
- 49:00Speaker 2: and I was coming out of the bathroom and I
- 49:03Speaker 2: was walking through the tunnel the Memorial you know, in
- 49:05Speaker 2: Memorial Stadium, and I just wanted to get out to
- 49:07Speaker 2: where I could see a flag, you know what I mean,
- 49:10Speaker 2: Because I heard the anthem. I get out there and
- 49:12Speaker 2: I put my hat over my heart and I'm standing there, going,
- 49:15Speaker 2: I don't even know what part they're at, Like, I
- 49:18Speaker 2: don't even know where they're at in the song. Like,
- 49:21Speaker 2: and then I started thinking to myself, like I kind
- 49:23Speaker 2: of like took a peek around making sure everybody else
- 49:25Speaker 2: had their hats off.
- 49:25Speaker 3: Was I listening to a different song?
- 49:27Speaker 4: Right?
- 49:27Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
- 49:28Speaker 4: Like, Yeah, where I just went is this Canada?
- 49:31Speaker 3: Are they going on here?
- 49:33Speaker 2: Scy Oh hey, that's a question for you Mount Baker Band.
- 49:36Speaker 2: Can they play Oh Canada?
- 49:38Speaker 4: That awesome?
- 49:39Speaker 2: I mean they're gonna have to, aren't they?
- 49:40Speaker 3: Or is it? Are they just going to play it
- 49:42Speaker 3: over the speaker?
- 49:43Speaker 4: It's it. I don't think I don't think they will.
- 49:45Speaker 2: I mean, it's not exactly a Jimmy Hendrick song or anything.
- 49:48Speaker 2: It's it's pretty easy.
- 49:49Speaker 4: It's a kind of a cool song. I love it.
- 49:51Speaker 2: I love it. I could sing it right now. You
- 49:53Speaker 2: want me to sing it right now?
- 49:54Speaker 4: I think we both could. But you know well that I.
- 49:58Speaker 3: Was hoping you weren't going to say yes. I just
- 50:00Speaker 3: I know you're a nice enough guy to not say
- 50:01Speaker 3: yes to that. But I could, I could belt it.
- 50:03Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, I bet, I bet a lot of
- 50:05Speaker 4: the Bat's Blue TV, watching the old Hockey Night in Canada.
- 50:10Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 50:10Speaker 2: Well, and you got to remember every time the Thunderbirds,
- 50:12Speaker 2: basically the Thunderbirds, every game they play is either you know,
- 50:16Speaker 2: there's five teams in the well there now they're six,
- 50:18Speaker 2: so that now that we have one ATCHI but pretty
- 50:20Speaker 2: much every other game I got to hear the anthem.
- 50:22Speaker 2: I got to hear the Canadian anthem, right right. The
- 50:25Speaker 2: only anthem I've heard more than that one is the US.
- 50:28Speaker 4: Probably the one I heard more than that one other
- 50:29Speaker 4: than the US is Nikolay Volkov singing the Russian national
- 50:32Speaker 4: anthem all through the eighties.
- 50:34Speaker 2: And I have seen bore at a few times, so
- 50:36Speaker 2: I know the Kazakh stand national anthem. Yeah, it's something
- 50:39Speaker 2: about Kassack stands the greatest country of all timers like that.
- 50:42Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 50:43Speaker 4: But little known fact here you could talk about Tyler's
- 50:46Speaker 4: got some nuggets.
- 50:46Speaker 3: Man Man.
- 50:50Speaker 4: Baker's head coach, Ron Lepper from Mount Baker High School.
- 50:53Speaker 4: His wife graduated from Centennial Secondary. So you got all
- 51:00Speaker 4: all sorts of tie ins here, so we'll see who
- 51:02Speaker 4: she's rooting for. Not yeah, uh so yeah, there's a
- 51:08Speaker 4: lot of a lot of fun little things here.
- 51:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 51:13Speaker 4: I'm trying to think the last time a US team
- 51:17Speaker 4: went up to Canada to play, and I think it
- 51:19Speaker 4: was Mount Baker. I remember I for some reason, I
- 51:22Speaker 4: can recall film of like Jason Lee running the ball
- 51:25Speaker 4: against the team up in Canada because I remember seeing
- 51:29Speaker 4: film and going like this, this field does not look
- 51:32Speaker 4: familiar at all, and I think that was but it
- 51:36Speaker 4: doesn't happen very often. So I don't know if this
- 51:37Speaker 4: will be like a home and home back and forth
- 51:40Speaker 4: going to next year. But Mount Baker looking to go
- 51:42Speaker 4: three and oh and uh you know, kind of get
- 51:45Speaker 4: things back on track. They only won three games total
- 51:48Speaker 4: last year. And it's another kind of a classic thing
- 51:51Speaker 4: where you know the other team might be faster, but
- 51:54Speaker 4: Mount Baker's gonna might be just tried to out tough
- 51:57Speaker 4: them and and that's just kind of been the Mount
- 51:59Speaker 4: Baker way for a long long time and we'll continue
- 52:02Speaker 4: to be as.
- 52:03Speaker 3: Long as coach Lepards there. Yeah.
- 52:05Speaker 2: I mean I got a hard time ever seeing them
- 52:08Speaker 2: doing anything other than just trying to be the more
- 52:10Speaker 2: physical team.
- 52:12Speaker 3: I mean, and and you know it's.
- 52:13Speaker 2: Not every year they are you're excuse me, Not every
- 52:16Speaker 2: game are they the most physical team. But they're not
- 52:20Speaker 2: one to shy away from trying to be the most
- 52:21Speaker 2: physical team.
- 52:23Speaker 4: Absolutely, And that's what's cool about them is that they
- 52:25Speaker 4: I tell you what, no team I mean, Lyndon's kind
- 52:27Speaker 4: of this way too, where they like whistle to whistle,
- 52:31Speaker 4: they are out there to destroy you, and then as
- 52:33Speaker 4: soon as the whistle ends the play, they're the first
- 52:35Speaker 4: ones to help the other team up. Yeah, and and
- 52:38Speaker 4: that I love that too. And the sportsmanship is out
- 52:41Speaker 4: of this world with especially I mean, they're all pretty good,
- 52:44Speaker 4: but those two programs, like it stands out, you know,
- 52:48Speaker 4: as far as that kind of stuff, and and.
- 52:51Speaker 2: It's, uh, that says a lot about the two programs. Yeah, well,
- 52:55Speaker 2: and I think it says a lot about head coaches too,
- 52:57Speaker 2: you know. I mean that's I don't want to pump
- 53:00Speaker 2: the guy's tires too much. But you know, that's kind
- 53:03Speaker 2: of a classy guy, you know, I mean, decent beard,
- 53:08Speaker 2: nice guy, heck of a football coach. Like if I
- 53:11Speaker 2: ever had to give his eulogy, that's all I'd say,
- 53:13Speaker 2: and then I'd walk off.
- 53:14Speaker 4: It's a beard, nice guy, heck of a football.
- 53:18Speaker 3: Go good night, everybody and just leave. That's what I
- 53:25Speaker 3: You probably have.
- 53:26Speaker 4: A SoundBite al ready of saying there's a whole lot
- 53:28Speaker 4: of lemons or you know.
- 53:29Speaker 3: That's a lot of lemons.
- 53:30Speaker 2: Yeah, boy, that's a lot of lemons. Tyler, It's it's
- 53:36Speaker 2: ten fifty eight pm. We're getting a little loopy here. No,
- 53:41Speaker 2: no alcohol or drugs have been consumed at all on
- 53:45Speaker 2: this podcast, and never will. But some people are probably
- 53:48Speaker 2: going these guys sound like they're out of their mind.
- 53:52Speaker 2: Centennial secondary, though, Tyler, this is one that I don't
- 53:56Speaker 2: As long as you and I've been doing the podcast,
- 53:58Speaker 2: we have not seen centennials secondary. I know that we've
- 54:01Speaker 2: seen Vancouver College. We've seen uh was it Midwest?
- 54:06Speaker 3: Yeah? New Wesley.
- 54:07Speaker 4: Well who was the one that we saw.
- 54:10Speaker 2: Well, Elsie. Was that who they played? No, that's what
- 54:13Speaker 2: I'm thinking. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we've seen a couple of times.
- 54:19Speaker 2: I feel like, maybe do we see them last year?
- 54:22Speaker 4: I think, yeah, yeah, in the year I remember seeing
- 54:25Speaker 4: I remember seeing him in the nineties against knok Sack.
- 54:27Speaker 3: But they they.
- 54:28Speaker 4: Played, Yeah, they played Elsie and that was that was
- 54:32Speaker 4: they played last year. They played against uh Squalicum.
- 54:38Speaker 2: I think, yes, it was squall of them last year
- 54:40Speaker 2: and it was Elsie the year before, el See the year.
- 54:42Speaker 4: Before, yeah, or something like that. So, yeah, we've seen them.
- 54:45Speaker 2: Elsie's defense went nuts in that game and I got
- 54:47Speaker 2: a lot of fantasy points.
- 54:48Speaker 3: Out of it. Yes, that's right, I remember that. Yeah.
- 54:53Speaker 2: Anyway, Centennial Secondary two and one Centennial I believe I
- 54:56Speaker 2: could be wrong. I believe it's in Coquitlam.
- 54:58Speaker 4: It is in Coquitlam.
- 55:00Speaker 2: Yeahs another thing I learned about him. Yeah, as I say,
- 55:02Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure. Whenever I go to Vancouver to watch hockey,
- 55:05Speaker 2: we always park in the New Westminster area and we
- 55:10Speaker 2: drive right through Coquitlam, and I'm pretty sure it's just
- 55:12Speaker 2: north of the freeway there the trans Canada Canada one.
- 55:17Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 55:18Speaker 2: Anyway, second since Centennial Secondary two and one Mount Baker
- 55:21Speaker 2: two and oh Bob Tisdale Field is seven pm. Kings
- 55:24Speaker 2: OZ and two coming to sid Lambert Field to take
- 55:27Speaker 2: on the Nuksack Value Pioneers home for the first time
- 55:29Speaker 2: this year. They are two and oh on the season.
- 55:32Speaker 2: King's Knoksack Valley. Feel like we've seen this game a
- 55:35Speaker 2: few times recently.
- 55:37Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean they built kind of a neat
- 55:38Speaker 4: rivalry because I mean there was a time like in
- 55:42Speaker 4: the nineties where this brief, brief time where this was
- 55:46Speaker 4: a league game. But even before that, like in the
- 55:49Speaker 4: mid nineties we're talking when Ackerman and Lentz senior here,
- 55:54Speaker 4: when they were playing, they would play Kings in the
- 55:56Speaker 4: regular season and uh and it was just it was
- 56:00Speaker 4: just one of those things, a big time rivalry and
- 56:02Speaker 4: basketball for years, when you get to the district tide,
- 56:04Speaker 4: district championship or district tournament, I should say Kings always
- 56:08Speaker 4: has shooters and they could play great basketball. But recently,
- 56:11Speaker 4: I'm talking the last six years, I feel like they've
- 56:14Speaker 4: played Nuksack Valley every single year and you know they'll
- 56:18Speaker 4: go there, they'll come here. There was that amazing game
- 56:21Speaker 4: in the quarterfinals where Kings was up like they were
- 56:24Speaker 4: up by like thirty or something in the third quarter
- 56:27Speaker 4: and Nuksack Valley came back and won. There's just been
- 56:31Speaker 4: some crazy like this is a this has a history.
- 56:34Speaker 4: And then of course last year's game was that was
- 56:36Speaker 4: that twenty eight, twenty six game where there was the
- 56:40Speaker 4: ya you know, the crazy call and their comeback. I
- 56:43Speaker 4: mean that was there was at Kings, right, that was
- 56:46Speaker 4: at Kings, and Kings was pretty loaded. Last year. They
- 56:49Speaker 4: had the what I like to call the Doug Flutie quarterback.
- 56:52Speaker 4: I think he wore number twenty two.
- 56:54Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and.
- 56:55Speaker 4: Little guy could run around. He looked just like Doug
- 56:57Speaker 4: Footie throwing. They had some big guy guys. But there
- 57:00Speaker 4: is you know, appears that they're a little down this
- 57:03Speaker 4: year and and now they're coming back up to Knukxack
- 57:06Speaker 4: Valley and so this was this one's a little intriguing
- 57:11Speaker 4: just because of the kind of the rivalry that's been built.
- 57:15Speaker 4: They seem to just they know each other pretty well.
- 57:18Speaker 4: You know, with the with with the lending game getting
- 57:21Speaker 4: moved to Thursday, Michaela because Michaela was going to go
- 57:24Speaker 4: to that lending game and now she's going to go
- 57:25Speaker 4: to it on Thursday, and she asked me. She goes, hey,
- 57:27Speaker 4: I'm open on Friday. Where do you want me to go?
- 57:30Speaker 4: And I said, well, there's there's only a few local games.
- 57:33Speaker 4: I go. Coacho's going to be out at Linden Christian.
- 57:35Speaker 4: I think I'm going to go out to Civic Stadium
- 57:38Speaker 4: and and she's like, I really want to check out Nuksack,
- 57:41Speaker 4: Valley and Kings. I said, you you got it, so
- 57:43Speaker 4: I think you know she'll have fun out there, and
- 57:47Speaker 4: uh yeah, I just you know, the coaching staffs know
- 57:50Speaker 4: each other pretty well, and and uh, you're right here. Oh,
- 57:56Speaker 4: Shapiro's hair is just going to be just unmovable. You know.
- 58:00Speaker 4: Mel Kiper in his best days couldn't do that.
- 58:03Speaker 3: No, but not even close.
- 58:05Speaker 4: No, So uh yeah, so we'll see, we'll see how
- 58:07Speaker 4: this goes. And and uh and nooks like Valley finally
- 58:11Speaker 4: playing a home game they don't. I think they only
- 58:12Speaker 4: have three this year, so uh this will be uh,
- 58:15Speaker 4: this would be nice for them and the home crowd
- 58:17Speaker 4: that always supports the Pioneers big time.
- 58:20Speaker 2: They're gonna have like homecoming, opening night and Senior Night, all.
- 58:24Speaker 4: Your night exactly and mini mini cheer and uh.
- 58:29Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be all sorts of things, the Junior Pioneer
- 58:31Speaker 2: Night and bring your cow to the Game night and.
- 58:35Speaker 4: Yeah they'll bring that. Yeah, they'll have the the little
- 58:38Speaker 4: third and fourth graders come out and play during halftime
- 58:41Speaker 4: and yeah, yeah, bring your own bring your own cow night.

- 59:09Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go. Abbitsford Appreciation Night.
- 59:11Speaker 2: By the way, they got a Tim Horton's attached to
- 59:14Speaker 2: a Windy's up there right on the other side of
- 59:16Speaker 2: the border.
- 59:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 59:16Speaker 2: One time, Tyler, here's a good story for you. It
- 59:19Speaker 2: was really hot out. It was like ninety five degrees
- 59:22Speaker 2: in the middle of summer. Me and my buddy Scott
- 59:24Speaker 2: in here. He hits me up and he's like, man,
- 59:27Speaker 2: He's like, it's so hot in my house. I said, dude,
- 59:29Speaker 2: why don't we just like go to Canada and He's like,
- 59:32Speaker 2: for what, I said, let's just go to tim Hortons.
- 59:34Speaker 2: And he's like, dude, I'm in let's go. I picked
- 59:36Speaker 2: him up. It was like ten o'clock at night and
- 59:39Speaker 2: we just drove. We went right through the Sioux Mass crossing. Yeah,
- 59:43Speaker 2: went straight to that Windy's with the tim Hortons. Come
- 59:46Speaker 2: to find out their bakers go home at like nine o'clock. Now,
- 59:51Speaker 2: all we wanted was a bunch of tim Bits. So
- 59:52Speaker 2: we got like, I don't know, a twelve pack or
- 59:54Speaker 2: something there, and then we were like, hey, can you
- 59:57Speaker 2: call the one on the other side of the trans
- 59:58Speaker 2: Canada and to see if they have Yeah. Sure, they
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: called up there. They had like thirty five left. We're like, hey,
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: can you just tell them to put them in a box.
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: We'll come pick them up in like five minutes.
- 1:00:07Speaker 4: Then that's great.
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: So we got them all there. Then my buddy goes, hey,
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: is there any other ones around? I said, I was like,
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: you know what, there's one one exit over on the
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: way to Chili Whack. So we drove over to that
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: one where there's like a family fund center and we
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: picked up every Timbit. We cleaned out three tim Hortons,
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: of all the timbits they had, oh yeah, grabbed an

- 1:00:48Speaker 3: That should be a fun one.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: I mean, you just never know if Kings sometimes they
- 1:00:52Speaker 2: could be oh and two and still come up and
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: just put a schlacking on somebody. I mean you just
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: you just never know. They're always well coached, they've always
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: got athletes, you know, sometimes more than most years. But yeah,
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: this should be a good one. The final game of
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: the weekend, as far as our schedule goes here down
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: at Frank Goddard Stadium in I guess it's considered like
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: South Everett maybe I'm not sure.
- 1:01:14Speaker 4: Exactly, Michael Teo or well so Michael Teo School District
- 1:01:19Speaker 4: maybe Yeah, I can't remember, but it's kind of like
- 1:01:22Speaker 4: South Everett.
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: It's actually the same exit. The people that are going
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: to Archisip Murphield get off, oh, except they're going the
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: other way. They're going to get off and go right.
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: The other ones are going to get off and go left.
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: And the ones that go left are going to get
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: a chance to have some really nice pizza. Although the
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: ones that go get off and go right go twenty
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: minutes early and get some pizza. Meridian two and oh,
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: they're headed down to came Act they are also too,
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: and oh that's a seven pm game. It's also going
- 1:01:48Speaker 2: to be broadcast on thirteen eighty kr KO. I believe
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: it's going to be live. I got Tom Lafferty doing
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: the play by play down there. He hit me up today,
- 1:01:57Speaker 2: Tyler asking for information. I said, here's Tyler Anderson's number.
- 1:02:01Speaker 2: Sounds like he didn't reach out to you, but I
- 1:02:04Speaker 2: do know that he got the podcast link, so maybe
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: he was listening to the preview. I don't know what's
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: going on there, but uh, they got maybe got one.
- 1:02:11Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe got everything you needed to know from that.
- 1:02:13Speaker 4: Who knows.
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: I mean, you know, we do a pretty thorough job, Tyler.
- 1:02:17Speaker 2: I mean we don't do a lot of things. Well,
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: those team previews, though, we knock them out of the park.
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: That being said, two and O two and O Tyler,
- 1:02:25Speaker 2: I can't imagine Camiak has a ton of history against
- 1:02:28Speaker 2: Walkham County teams.
- 1:02:30Speaker 4: No, I you know, I I don't think so. I remember.
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: I mean they've been for a most of the time.
- 1:02:38Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember Ferndale playing KAMAIAKN I know that's completely different.
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know where you're going with that one.
- 1:02:45Speaker 4: When you're out of the when you're out of the county,
- 1:02:47Speaker 4: like when I only focus on the county, I get
- 1:02:49Speaker 4: those two teams mixed up because it's just you know,
- 1:02:52Speaker 4: and so I I can never remember which ones which
- 1:02:55Speaker 4: I know one I think has read Camiak and his
- 1:02:59Speaker 4: red and goal and ryami Ac is like purple and
- 1:03:02Speaker 4: gray now, I think is what they use. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:03:05Speaker 4: so yeah, so okay, well that's how I'll remember it there.
- 1:03:09Speaker 4: The Camaikin is like what you're going to do, brother, Yeah, holkster.
- 1:03:13Speaker 3: Oh like literally those colors too.
- 1:03:15Speaker 4: Yeah, and the purple and gold or the purple and
- 1:03:18Speaker 4: silk or gray will be kind of like the macho
- 1:03:20Speaker 4: king with the rope and stuff.
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: Okay, I got that down, so oh boy, yeah, you're
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: killing a lot of people right now, Tyler.
- 1:03:28Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:03:28Speaker 4: Yeah, well, well the forty five and older crew is excited.
- 1:03:32Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, this will be really interesting. I mean, I
- 1:03:36Speaker 4: you know, when I talked to coach James before the
- 1:03:38Speaker 4: season started, he just kind of, you know, this game
- 1:03:41Speaker 4: kind of dull together in a weird way, and he's like,
- 1:03:46Speaker 4: you know, we don't play a lot of four A schools,
- 1:03:48Speaker 4: like it just doesn't happen, but this one just kind
- 1:03:52Speaker 4: of did happen. He did mention that there was a
- 1:03:54Speaker 4: couple of dns that are really stud athletes, and four
- 1:03:59Speaker 4: A is always going to have stud athletes. That's just
- 1:04:01Speaker 4: the way of the way that it goes. Meridian's gonna
- 1:04:03Speaker 4: have to play sound football, you know, tough football, not
- 1:04:08Speaker 4: make mistakes. They look pretty good this year. There have
- 1:04:11Speaker 4: been some mistakes, some drops, some fumbles, some different things
- 1:04:14Speaker 4: like that that you know, they eventually those are early
- 1:04:17Speaker 4: season things that you're gonna have to clean up before
- 1:04:18Speaker 4: you get to the conference play. But yeah, this is
- 1:04:23Speaker 4: something where if they go down there and they're not
- 1:04:25Speaker 4: intimidated and they just play their brand of football and
- 1:04:28Speaker 4: they don't worry about the other opponent. They just worry
- 1:04:31Speaker 4: about themselves and just try to do what makes them
- 1:04:34Speaker 4: play well. Then it should turn out pretty well. But
- 1:04:38Speaker 4: this is another one of those games where I'm I
- 1:04:41Speaker 4: was looking. I'm looking at the Okanagan l Sea game,
- 1:04:43Speaker 4: I'm looking at the Lake Withou Sea home game. I'm
- 1:04:45Speaker 4: looking at the Squallalk Archbishop game. You know where I'm
- 1:04:48Speaker 4: looking at, Like this could be a really close game.
- 1:04:51Speaker 4: And this is another one where I think it could
- 1:04:54Speaker 4: be like a three point game. It'll be, It'll be again.
- 1:05:00Speaker 4: I don't know that much about Camak and uh, I'm
- 1:05:04Speaker 4: gonna learn a lot. I had no clue even where
- 1:05:07Speaker 4: it was. When I looked up where the stadium was.
- 1:05:08Speaker 4: I didn't know it wasn't Everett.
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: I had no idea.
- 1:05:11Speaker 4: And maybe again because I knew I knew Kamaike and
- 1:05:14Speaker 4: was like east of the mountains, and so I just
- 1:05:18Speaker 4: I'm always like, where are they? I I just don't know.
- 1:05:21Speaker 4: Once I leave that bubble of Walking County, it's tough
- 1:05:23Speaker 4: for me. But so at least it's not super far,
- 1:05:27Speaker 4: I guess, and uh, and we'll see uh. Meridian. You
- 1:05:30Speaker 4: know they're old school, you know, black and white jerseys
- 1:05:35Speaker 4: just go out there, play football, come back and they
- 1:05:38Speaker 4: always have a few tricks up their sleeve though, So
- 1:05:40Speaker 4: we'll see how this goes. You know, they might try
- 1:05:44Speaker 4: to confuse them a little bit. And I mean, you
- 1:05:46Speaker 4: got athletes, you know, you might see some screen passes
- 1:05:49Speaker 4: and stuff. You got some guys, some Major D one
- 1:05:52Speaker 4: athletes coming off the edge. Get them running one way,
- 1:05:55Speaker 4: get them, you know, and go over the top a
- 1:05:56Speaker 4: little bit and through the screen or something like that,
- 1:05:59Speaker 4: and don't find They'll find things that they can do
- 1:06:01Speaker 4: and hopefully Mariting can come out on top. Yeah.
- 1:06:05Speaker 2: And when you say major D one guys, they've got
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: a couple. But before we mentioned them, I do want
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: to say, and I meant to say it earlier, Frank
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: Goddard Stadium. For those of you go into the game,
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: just type in Mariner High School because it's at Mariner
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: High Schools where the stadium is. Those two schools are
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: in the same district. They share the stadium. Do yourself
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: a favor to when when you park, try to get
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: close to the stadium and be sure to lock your door.
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about those guys though. They've got
- 1:06:32Speaker 2: two guys here, Tyler Tandre Waverley six foot four, twenty
- 1:06:37Speaker 2: five pounds. He's got offers all over the place. I
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: mean when I say all over the place, I mean
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: literally all over the place. Like if I just give
- 1:06:45Speaker 2: you his his the first five, Now this is alphabetical,
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: first five Arizona State, Auburn, California, Colorado, Colorado State. And
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: he's got I think like twenty of them. I know
- 1:06:54Speaker 2: Nebraska's in there. He's a big, big kid that can
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: absolutely run. Uh Brandon Hoffman in twenty twenty two, so
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, but he wrote as a
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: tight end. He's shown tremendous growth as a pass catcher
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: and a route runner in a run heavy offense. He's
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: a plus blocker and does a good job sealing off
- 1:07:14Speaker 2: the edge. I mean, this is a this is a
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: big dude. I mean he just is. He's also a
- 1:07:20Speaker 2: tremendous and I mean tremendous track athlete, running the one
- 1:07:25Speaker 2: hundred to two hundred and four by one. You and
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: I looked it up earlier, and actually I've got it
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: right here. He has a couple of wins at the
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: Twilight in the Ham last year that one hundred meters,
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: the two hundred meters was it the four by one?
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: Also the four by one, and then finished fourth in
- 1:07:45Speaker 2: the four by four. So, I mean, this is a
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: guy that can flat out run and at six four
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: two twenty five, I mean.
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: That's absolutely ridiculous.
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: Now that being said, he may not even be the
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: biggest recruit on his team because there's a young man
- 1:07:59Speaker 2: and we got to talk about this guy, Tyler, because
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: this guy is ridiculous. Victor Sanchez Hernandez six five two
- 1:08:05Speaker 2: point thirty. He's an edge and I think he plays
- 1:08:08Speaker 2: tight end also if I remember correctly, So they've got,
- 1:08:10Speaker 2: i mean two of the biggest tight ends in the state,
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: maybe even in the country. But he's committed to the
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: University of Washington. This guy is a world class taekwondo fighter, I.
- 1:08:22Speaker 3: Guess you will.
- 1:08:24Speaker 4: The martial artist.
- 1:08:26Speaker 2: Yeah, and so one of the things I was reading,
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: and you know, I follow these guys, you know, closely,
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: but not as close as I did when I when
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: it was my job. Right, Yeah, this guy is apparently
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: like the number one rated junior heavyweight in the world,
- 1:08:43Speaker 2: not just like like in the state, not just in
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: the city, not just in his leader, no, in the world.
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: Like I'm sorry, I am not running into this dude
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: in the back alley. I mean, this guy would pound
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: my face in Tyler. I mean, this is truly tremendous.
- 1:08:59Speaker 2: And really what it is when you think about the
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: position of edge and getting after the quarterback, you think
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: about hand fighting, you think about leverage, you think about
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: stuff that is taekwondo. I mean, it just is like
- 1:09:11Speaker 2: that support is about those things and this guy here
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: can absolutely get after it. I mean, yeah, it's it's
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: gonna be a tough matchup. Now that being said, one
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: of those two guys is probably gonna be going against
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: Lincoln Hofer, I would assume. I mean yeah, which is
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: excites me, you know what I mean, because I'm looking
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: at matchups going, oh man, I can't wait to hear
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: what Tyler says about this, you know what I mean.
- 1:09:37Speaker 2: I can't wait to see how some of that goes down.
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: And it's gonna be interesting. I mean, when you talk
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: about just like pure athleticism, those two guys are the
- 1:09:46Speaker 2: two best athletes in the game, you know what I mean.
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: But that being said, there's not too many teams they're
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: gonna have too many coaching staffs that are gonna have
- 1:09:55Speaker 2: guys prepared like Meridian. I just I truly believe they're
- 1:09:59Speaker 2: gonna be very well prepared. And I you know, I
- 1:10:02Speaker 2: think most people are probably going ah, four A to
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: one A, you know.
- 1:10:06Speaker 4: Ah.
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: No, I think Meridian is is in a great spot
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: to win this game.
- 1:10:10Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I just think that. You know, it's just
- 1:10:14Speaker 4: like you said, they're gonna they're gonna find ways to
- 1:10:16Speaker 4: try to use their athleticism against them. I mean, you know,
- 1:10:20Speaker 4: get them going thinking it's one way, go the other way,
- 1:10:22Speaker 4: try to confuse them. And and then when you know,
- 1:10:26Speaker 4: if you can get up a little bit and just
- 1:10:28Speaker 4: just just run between the tackles, just get those guys
- 1:10:30Speaker 4: kind of out of the game. And and we'll just
- 1:10:33Speaker 4: we'll have to see what happens. And you know, find
- 1:10:36Speaker 4: you know, you can do things against high school teams
- 1:10:39Speaker 4: to out make them think too much or to outsmart
- 1:10:43Speaker 4: them and stuff like that. You just kind of never know,
- 1:10:45Speaker 4: and so and and coach James will come up with
- 1:10:48Speaker 4: all sorts of crazy things to try to get you
- 1:10:51Speaker 4: thinking too much and and react a certain way. So
- 1:10:55Speaker 4: I don't know, we'll have to see. It's gonna be
- 1:10:57Speaker 4: it's gonna be really interesting. It's a it's again. I
- 1:11:02Speaker 4: think I'm almost one positive that Camyak has never played
- 1:11:06Speaker 4: against the Walkame County School. So looking back at like
- 1:11:10Speaker 4: you know, see homes for a while and stuff, and
- 1:11:13Speaker 4: looking at non conference stuff, I mean nothing, nothing, nothing,
- 1:11:16Speaker 4: I can't see anything. So so let's.
- 1:11:18Speaker 3: See that is it? Uh? Well, I guess again.
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: Meridian two and O Cameyak two and no Frank Goddards
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: Stadium at marin Or High School, seven pm on Friday. Well, Tyler,
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: this one is like, I don't know how we'd ended
- 1:11:31Speaker 2: up going so long here where already over an hour
- 1:11:33Speaker 2: and ten minutes?
- 1:11:35Speaker 4: Wow?
- 1:11:35Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what happened here.
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: But that being said, Tyler, that's ten games, ten games
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: on the dock at this week. Uh, Randy Small, he's
- 1:11:43Speaker 2: got a weather forecast. He's gonna let us know what
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: it's going to look like at the games. If you
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: want to find more of Randy's work, follow him on
- 1:11:51Speaker 2: Facebook at Facebook dot com, backslash watcom County Weather, or
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: check out his website Watcom COUNTYWX dot com on Twitter
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: at random Small. You can find all kinds of cool
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: stuff on there as well. He's sharing stuff from like
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: around the state, you know, like different things that I
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: see where all of a sudden, here's a weather map
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: and I'm like, what he who posted this? And then
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: I well, of course, why would it be anybody else, right,
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: I mean, it's the only guy I follow that ever
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: tweets about the weather, because I don't follow those those
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: you know, those news weather guys because they don't know
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: what they're talking about.
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: They're not Randy.
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: But yeah, Randy Small, Wakam County w x dot com
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: is his website. Yeah, Randy, take.
- 1:12:28Speaker 5: It away, Gredians, Walkham County High School football fans. This
- 1:12:34Speaker 5: is Randy Small from Walkham County Weather doing a forecast
- 1:12:37Speaker 5: here on Tuesday for Thursday and Friday nights football games.
- 1:12:41Speaker 5: And after last week where it was touch and go
- 1:12:43Speaker 5: about Friday night. I was at a game Friday night
- 1:12:46Speaker 5: and the rain pretty much held off until right towards
- 1:12:49Speaker 5: the end of the game, and it was a tough
- 1:12:51Speaker 5: one to forecast from that far out. But this week
- 1:12:54Speaker 5: games looked to be a little bit less chance of
- 1:12:57Speaker 5: pre sip. Thursday night is probably pretty much much dry,
- 1:13:00Speaker 5: although we can't rule out a chance of precip Thursday night.
- 1:13:05Speaker 5: Friday night has a little bit higher chance, but overall,
- 1:13:08Speaker 5: I don't think either night, Thursday night or Friday night's
- 1:13:11Speaker 5: games are gonna be on the wet side. Probably more
- 1:13:13Speaker 5: dry than wet, but again can't rule that out. Temps
- 1:13:15Speaker 5: will be in the oh I'd say lower sixties by
- 1:13:18Speaker 5: kickoff times, So overall, not a bad night or two
- 1:13:23Speaker 5: nights coming up this week. Not much else to talk
- 1:13:25Speaker 5: about other than that the temps are good, precips should
- 1:13:28Speaker 5: be overall good. And hope everybody has a great week
- 1:13:32Speaker 5: of football practice and football games, and it's hard to
- 1:13:35Speaker 5: believe we're already heading into our third week. Have a
- 1:13:38Speaker 5: great time. We'll talk to you next week already.
- 1:13:41Speaker 2: Thank you again to Randy for the forecast. You can
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: find them online, Facebook dot com, backslash, walcom County weather,
- 1:13:48Speaker 2: or wacom countywx dot com. By the way, somebody wants
- 1:13:52Speaker 2: to sponsor it, I mean they could sponsor the Randy
- 1:13:55Speaker 2: small Weather forecast.
- 1:13:56Speaker 4: That's true.
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: You know, maybe what we could do is maybe get
- 1:13:59Speaker 3: somebody that.
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: Will buy a bunch of his his calendars at the
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: end of the year, we just give him out.
- 1:14:03Speaker 4: That's a great idea.
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think it's a good idea, Tyler,
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: let's talk pick'em's Joe Consensus fifteen and four. He is
- 1:14:10Speaker 2: in the leader so far on the season, Tyler, you,
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: Jeff wood, Ryland Me fourteen and five, and then we've
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: got Mikayla and the guests. They are thirteen and six
- 1:14:25Speaker 2: on the season. The guest this week, Tyler, the legendary.
- 1:14:30Speaker 2: Probably I wouldn't say my favorite. Maybe my favorite my
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: favorite coach interview that we did, just because I went
- 1:14:36Speaker 2: into it not knowing what it was going to be
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: like at all, you know, I mean, I knew what
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: we were going to get a lap, I knew what
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: we were going to get out of BVD. You knew
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: that Lucy was going to be a little bit nerd
- 1:14:51Speaker 2: if you will, and then have a good time, and
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: we were going to talk all kinds of different things,
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: and we knew what we were getting out. Some of
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: these guys didn't know what I was going to get
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: out of mister Dan Kamink. And I'll tell you what,
- 1:15:01Speaker 2: I had a lot of fun talking to that guy
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: and the stories and just different things.
- 1:15:05Speaker 3: It was so much fun. Tyler.
- 1:15:07Speaker 2: I know you guys have a great relationship. He is
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: the guest picker this week.
- 1:15:12Speaker 4: Yeah, he's just phenomenal. You know, he's he's done it all,
- 1:15:17Speaker 4: he's seen it all. You know, he was a great
- 1:15:18Speaker 4: player way back when. He probably doesn't want me to
- 1:15:22Speaker 4: say what year he graduated leather helmets, but nineteen eighty one,
- 1:15:26Speaker 4: but yeah, and then goes often and plays at Northwestern
- 1:15:32Speaker 4: College in Iowa and and won a I think they
- 1:15:36Speaker 4: won the national championship. He was a starting corner. He
- 1:15:39Speaker 4: went there to play quarterback, becomes a starting corner and
- 1:15:44Speaker 4: then you know, student Todd over there. And then he
- 1:15:46Speaker 4: became the head coach at Lyndon Christian at twenty seven
- 1:15:48Speaker 4: years old, and and like I think in his fourth
- 1:15:52Speaker 4: year he became the schools all time winning as coach.
- 1:15:55Speaker 4: And then he went on to coach another twenty something years.
- 1:15:57Speaker 4: So he's put that way out of the way for
- 1:16:01Speaker 4: anyone else to catch. And he's just one of those
- 1:16:05Speaker 4: guys where you talk to anybody, former players, coaches, former coaches,
- 1:16:10Speaker 4: the respect levels through the roof. I've talked to many
- 1:16:14Speaker 4: former players that I say, you know, if you could
- 1:16:17Speaker 4: have played for any coach, who would have been and
- 1:16:18Speaker 4: they all are like Dan Kamik, I would love to
- 1:16:21Speaker 4: play for that guy, and I just I could just
- 1:16:24Speaker 4: I could just sit there and just talk not just football,
- 1:16:27Speaker 4: but all kind of sports with him. And it's so
- 1:16:29Speaker 4: fun and and uh, you know, we had fun at
- 1:16:32Speaker 4: the basketball State tournament. Just sometimes between games are just
- 1:16:35Speaker 4: sitting there at the tables and waiting for the next
- 1:16:37Speaker 4: game to start and just reminiscing about old names from
- 1:16:39Speaker 4: the past. And he's got a great memory and he's
- 1:16:42Speaker 4: seen a lot of that and so and I was,
- 1:16:44Speaker 4: you know, I've read about it. I want to know
- 1:16:47Speaker 4: about this guy or that guy, and he can tell
- 1:16:50Speaker 4: me and he and he's not annoyed by it. He's
- 1:16:52Speaker 4: having fun, you know. So he's just a great guy
- 1:16:54Speaker 4: to talk to and knows his football, doesn't a tremendous
- 1:16:57Speaker 4: job as a color analyst on a Cape UG and
- 1:17:00Speaker 4: all the sister stations up here, and and uh, he
- 1:17:04Speaker 4: just yeah, he's I love that he's still involved in
- 1:17:07Speaker 4: that way because when him and Jim Brain call a game,
- 1:17:10Speaker 4: it's it's uh, it's very very professional, and they know
- 1:17:13Speaker 4: their stuff. They have a great come camaraderie, and it's
- 1:17:17Speaker 4: a couple of guys that played at a very high
- 1:17:19Speaker 4: level and know the game and then when they do
- 1:17:20Speaker 4: basketball game, same thing. A couple of guys that played
- 1:17:23Speaker 4: at a very high level. So yeah, just love talking
- 1:17:28Speaker 4: football with him. And when I text him, I say, hey,
- 1:17:30Speaker 4: you want to be the guests picker? He said absolutely,
- 1:17:32Speaker 4: I send him the picks. He sent him right back,
- 1:17:35Speaker 4: and he was he was on board, and he was
- 1:17:36Speaker 4: all over it. And I hoped they're going to be
- 1:17:38Speaker 4: calling the Linnen Christian Okanagan game, and so I hope to,
- 1:17:42Speaker 4: you know, pop out there and say hello and talk
- 1:17:45Speaker 4: to him for.
- 1:17:45Speaker 3: A little bit.
- 1:17:45Speaker 4: It's always it's always a pleasure.
- 1:17:48Speaker 2: So that being said, Tyler, yeah, he's the only one
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: taking Cameac over Meridian. Yeah, that's it. The rest of
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: us are drinking the Trojan juice over here, if you will.
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: I am taking Okanagan over or excuse me, Okanagan and
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: Lakewood and everybody is picking Lindon, Archbishop Murphy and a Chordus, Nooksack, Valley, Ferndale,
- 1:18:13Speaker 2: Mount Baker and Blaine.
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: So that means what.
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: You, Mikayla, Jeff Joe, is that it Yeah, are all
- 1:18:25Speaker 2: taking the same teams.
- 1:18:27Speaker 3: Yeah, so you.
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: Guys can't do any movement this week. You and you
- 1:18:30Speaker 2: and Jeff are stuck at whatever happens.
- 1:18:33Speaker 4: Me.
- 1:18:33Speaker 2: On the other hand, I got a shot to make
- 1:18:35Speaker 2: a move here, you do. I mean, this could pay
- 1:18:37Speaker 2: off big for me.
- 1:18:39Speaker 4: You could go ahead of Joe.
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: I could go ahead. I mean I could.
- 1:18:43Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say I'm rooting for Okanagan and Lakewood
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: because that would go against the fact that I'm on
- 1:18:48Speaker 2: a Wakham County podcast right now. Yeah, I'd never be
- 1:18:51Speaker 2: allowed back in the county again. Although, if I'm being honest,
- 1:18:56Speaker 2: it's gonna be hard for me to get any game.
- 1:18:57Speaker 3: So I mean, although that we got, it'd be.
- 1:19:01Speaker 4: Hard to It'd be hard for you to get some
- 1:19:02Speaker 4: tim bits without you going to the county.
- 1:19:04Speaker 2: Yeah, Steve Gatterman would have every cop in the county
- 1:19:07Speaker 2: pulling me over. I heard the guys coming up for
- 1:19:09Speaker 2: some tim bits. Get him boys flying to Vancouver. Yes,
- 1:19:13Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to hop on my helicopter and make
- 1:19:16Speaker 2: my way up. That being said, though, Tyler, Yeah, thank
- 1:19:20Speaker 2: you again to coach cam In for doing this. Obviously,
- 1:19:24Speaker 2: we are big fans and I have heard a little
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: bit of his his work on uh.
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: Was it Kpug?
- 1:19:32Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the main station. Then there's KBA and yeah
- 1:19:35Speaker 4: and kg AM I Yeah.
- 1:19:36Speaker 2: I've I've heard a little bit of his work. Not bad,
- 1:19:39Speaker 2: not bad.
- 1:19:40Speaker 3: He's good.
- 1:19:40Speaker 2: Yeah, he's pretty. He's pretty stinking good. Not gonna lie.
- 1:19:43Speaker 2: And not every coach has the ability to just jump
- 1:19:45Speaker 2: over and do it. And I mean they all have
- 1:19:48Speaker 2: the ability obviously, but not many have the ability to
- 1:19:50Speaker 2: jump over and do a really good job.
- 1:19:52Speaker 3: And he does a great job over there.
- 1:19:54Speaker 4: So he really keeps that. Even Kelly, he doesn't get
- 1:19:56Speaker 4: too excited. He's like, he's like the anti Tony Romo,
- 1:19:59Speaker 4: you know where where you know you.
- 1:20:02Speaker 3: See you know.
- 1:20:03Speaker 4: Jim Romo is just like, well, I don't know, Jim,
- 1:20:07Speaker 4: what what do you think they're gonna do?
- 1:20:08Speaker 3: You know? And Jim Ants is like third down, Jim
- 1:20:13Speaker 3: Nantz is like, uh what what is it?
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: He like a tradition like none other on tradition, unlike
- 1:20:19Speaker 2: any other, Yeah, unlike any other on the CBS.
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like he lines up the putt and Romo's.
- 1:20:24Speaker 4: Like, I don't know, Jim, Yeah, it's just it's it's crazy.
- 1:20:28Speaker 4: But like it's so funny listening to Dan because he'll
- 1:20:31Speaker 4: he will almost set up the play by play guy
- 1:20:36Speaker 4: in a way where he'll be like, okay, now that
- 1:20:38Speaker 4: brings a third and four where they're probably gonna run
- 1:20:40Speaker 4: epner here you know, with their with the power formation,
- 1:20:44Speaker 4: and here it is Jim and then Jim will just
- 1:20:47Speaker 4: you know, go it. And it's just so funny because
- 1:20:49Speaker 4: he's seeing things that play ahead a lot, and he's
- 1:20:52Speaker 4: he talks about things that he would do, especially when
- 1:20:54Speaker 4: they do a Baker game and how you know, against
- 1:20:57Speaker 4: the wing tea. He went up against coach Lept like
- 1:20:59Speaker 4: you know, forty times or something. So it's like this
- 1:21:02Speaker 4: is this is you know.
- 1:21:03Speaker 3: How this is.
- 1:21:04Speaker 4: He really likes a good left tackle, he wants to
- 1:21:06Speaker 4: do this, this is why he does that, and it's
- 1:21:08Speaker 4: just like, holy cow, he's just unraveling, not unraveling, but
- 1:21:12Speaker 4: he's he's he's he's showing you everything. You know, if
- 1:21:15Speaker 4: you know football and you're listening to him, it's like,
- 1:21:17Speaker 4: holy cow, he's he's seeing things and he explains it
- 1:21:20Speaker 4: in a way to where you can understand it, and
- 1:21:23Speaker 4: it's a lot of fun to listen to.
- 1:21:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree. I think, like I said, I
- 1:21:28Speaker 2: think he does a really good job. So although this
- 1:21:31Speaker 2: week I hope he gets at least one wrong. I
- 1:21:35Speaker 2: mean partly because I'm picking Meridian.
- 1:21:38Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:21:39Speaker 2: So anyway, Tyler, uh well, and the guests, on the
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: other hand, have to hope that he does a good
- 1:21:44Speaker 2: job because they're they're playing from behind right now, all
- 1:21:48Speaker 2: of them, especially Bearden. By the way, Bearden is in
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: first place and the h the what's it betty'spoon Betty's spooner. Yeah,
- 1:21:56Speaker 2: he's in first place. When I saw that this week,
- 1:21:58Speaker 2: I about punched myself in the mouth. I couldn't believe it. Tyler,
- 1:22:02Speaker 2: let's talk fantasy here. Standing so far through two weeks,
- 1:22:06Speaker 2: I'm awing two. This isn't good. But I have a
- 1:22:10Speaker 2: plan to win this week. It's called picking the right guys.
- 1:22:13Speaker 4: Oh, it's good, you should try it.
- 1:22:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: By the way, he says, oh, look at you over here,
- 1:22:18Speaker 2: all of a sudden, mister like, oh, I'm really good
- 1:22:21Speaker 2: at this. For the first time ever, I'm all two,
- 1:22:26Speaker 2: which means you're two and zero. But that also means
- 1:22:28Speaker 2: I get the first pick. So that being said, I'm
- 1:22:31Speaker 2: gonna start off. I'm gonna go with a guy that
- 1:22:34Speaker 2: I think is going to run angry this week, and
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: I think he's set up ready to go. I'm gonna
- 1:22:39Speaker 2: go with talent bung guard.
- 1:22:41Speaker 4: Well, yeah, that's a great pick. Every week. You know,
- 1:22:44Speaker 4: after week one and I put out the graphics that
- 1:22:46Speaker 4: showed the top you know five rushing leaders, someone comment
- 1:22:49Speaker 4: and said he'll be number one all year, ya just
- 1:22:52Speaker 4: so matter of fact, like, yeah, I could see that
- 1:22:54Speaker 4: because he's got like twice as many carries as the
- 1:22:57Speaker 4: next guy already.
- 1:22:59Speaker 3: So that's a good pick.
- 1:23:00Speaker 4: I with two here, I am, I'm really looking to
- 1:23:04Speaker 4: go three and oh here, so I'm gonna pull out
- 1:23:06Speaker 4: all the stops. I'm gonna take Brent Hepner at quarterback.
- 1:23:09Speaker 4: I think that you know, Week one, he showed what
- 1:23:11Speaker 4: he could do against against Ferndale. Week two he only
- 1:23:14Speaker 4: played you know, basically half of football and those were
- 1:23:18Speaker 4: quick drives. And now I think that he will be
- 1:23:21Speaker 4: out there for most of the games. So I think
- 1:23:23Speaker 4: it's back to a full on attack here. And and
- 1:23:29Speaker 4: I think with the size of Marysville Pilchuck running might
- 1:23:32Speaker 4: be difficult. So I think I could see him airing
- 1:23:35Speaker 4: the ball out a little bit. And then and then
- 1:23:37Speaker 4: when you talk receivers, I mean, it's so hard to
- 1:23:40Speaker 4: not choose Andre Watson. I just think that I think
- 1:23:44Speaker 4: the juice will be loose in this one. I think
- 1:23:45Speaker 4: they're gonna put up a lot of points. There's gonna
- 1:23:48Speaker 4: be a lot of opportunities on the outside. They're gonna
- 1:23:50Speaker 4: be a lot of targets against against lake Wood, it's
- 1:23:53Speaker 4: going to be a shootout. And he's a guy that
- 1:23:56Speaker 4: even if you double cover him, he's he's still good
- 1:23:59Speaker 4: at running out and you know, unbelievably great hands and
- 1:24:04Speaker 4: so he'll catch anything you got. But then it's that
- 1:24:06Speaker 4: it's that first move that he makes. He's just he's
- 1:24:09Speaker 4: like a juke machine. Man, I don't know he's got
- 1:24:11Speaker 4: he's like rated, like a ninety nine on juke move
- 1:24:13Speaker 4: I'm mad, And it's there's something about it that's just like, Holy.
- 1:24:16Speaker 3: Cows, Chris Berman would like him.
- 1:24:20Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's I'm going with those two
- 1:24:22Speaker 4: guys and hopefully they can carry me this week.
- 1:24:25Speaker 3: I like it.
- 1:24:28Speaker 2: It's really good that we're picking under the radar guys
- 1:24:30Speaker 2: that nobody's ever heard of.
- 1:24:31Speaker 3: Tyler Don't kidding.
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: Now here's one. I don't know, maybe you picked him
- 1:24:37Speaker 2: week one. Uh I'm gonna go front seven here and
- 1:24:40Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Jacob Gandy. I just feel like, you know,
- 1:24:44Speaker 2: I what did I say, revenge tour or revenge game
- 1:24:47Speaker 2: or whatever?
- 1:24:48Speaker 3: You know?
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: And yeah, I feel like those guys are gonna be
- 1:24:50Speaker 2: fired up.
- 1:24:51Speaker 3: You know.
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: I guess I could have gone tell him bunguard on
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: both sides of the ball would have been the first.
- 1:24:56Speaker 3: Oh maybe I could do it later. H I don't know. Uh.
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go Jacob gandhy Front seven and then uh,
- 1:25:05Speaker 2: you know, I've done it before and I've had some
- 1:25:07Speaker 2: success with it. I'm gonna I'm gonna go against the
- 1:25:10Speaker 2: Canadian offense here. I'm gonna pick Mount Baker's defense. And
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: now his name's escaping me. Who's the DC over there?
- 1:25:18Speaker 2: Coach Centaur? Oh, I'm sorry, Coach Horseman. Coach Centaur Get Horseman. Yeah,
- 1:25:25Speaker 2: I mean, come on, guy, like your jokes are awful.
- 1:25:29Speaker 3: Oh come on?
- 1:25:29Speaker 4: That was great.
- 1:25:31Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, that was great. Yeah.
- 1:25:33Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Mault Baker's defense in this one.
- 1:25:35Speaker 2: I just I feel good about them. Give me some
- 1:25:37Speaker 2: points this week, maybe maybe a return or two.
- 1:25:40Speaker 4: You know, Oh, I like that. I mean they're always
- 1:25:43Speaker 4: great in the return game. And and you know you're right,
- 1:25:46Speaker 4: I mean they there was there was a two or
- 1:25:48Speaker 4: three years in a row not too long ago where
- 1:25:51Speaker 4: they would lead in interceptions like they have like twenty
- 1:25:54Speaker 4: interceptions a year, so very very in uh. And they
- 1:25:57Speaker 4: practice a lot of tip drill stuff and stuff like that.
- 1:26:00Speaker 4: So and this team likes to throw, so we'll see
- 1:26:03Speaker 4: so that's always those are gonna be really good picks.
- 1:26:05Speaker 4: And Jacob Gandy, I mean, he's just he can play
- 1:26:08Speaker 4: possessed sometimes he's he's just really hard to contain on
- 1:26:12Speaker 4: the offensive side of the ball when he's shooting through
- 1:26:14Speaker 4: the gaps and making plays. Toughest guy on the field.
- 1:26:17Speaker 4: Love watching him play. I'm gonna go I'm gonna go
- 1:26:20Speaker 4: blain offensive line. I think that I think we picked
- 1:26:23Speaker 4: them every week, just traded back before. I mean, it's
- 1:26:27Speaker 4: just one of those things where we're so impressed with
- 1:26:30Speaker 4: them and they haven't disappointed. I mean, we kind of
- 1:26:33Speaker 4: hyped him up in the preview, you know, and and
- 1:26:36Speaker 4: we every view well okay me, yeah, but it's been happening,
- 1:26:41Speaker 4: and it's been it's been coming together, and you know,
- 1:26:44Speaker 4: it's a really really strong line and and coach Olsen
- 1:26:48Speaker 4: wants to run that ball. And I just think that,
- 1:26:51Speaker 4: you know, they got that going on the right track
- 1:26:53Speaker 4: right now. And so I'm going to ride that train
- 1:26:55Speaker 4: right now all the way down to Sheolanne and in
- 1:26:59Speaker 4: the back seven, I'm gonna take Landon downy. I just
- 1:27:04Speaker 4: think that, you know, he's a guy on the edge
- 1:27:07Speaker 4: that can make some plays. He can drop back and coverage.
- 1:27:11Speaker 4: He'll hit you in the mouth, He'll he's been he's
- 1:27:14Speaker 4: got a lot of tackles for loss already. I want
- 1:27:16Speaker 4: to say it's you know, four or five and just
- 1:27:19Speaker 4: in two games and he's he's making a ton of
- 1:27:23Speaker 4: plays and he's a kid that he just keeps trying.
- 1:27:27Speaker 4: Is you know, he just keeps working harder. I shouldn't
- 1:27:29Speaker 4: say try, but he's working harder and harder all the time.
- 1:27:31Speaker 4: And I know he wants to play football at the
- 1:27:33Speaker 4: next level. And that guy puts in so much work
- 1:27:36Speaker 4: and he's gotten bigger and stronger, and you know, he's
- 1:27:38Speaker 4: he's not a he's not a loud kid. He's just
- 1:27:42Speaker 4: he's just very you know, he's just a grinder. And
- 1:27:46Speaker 4: every he never has like an off week, you know
- 1:27:48Speaker 4: what I mean. Like guys that work hard, it seems
- 1:27:50Speaker 4: like they always just something good always happens, and and
- 1:27:54Speaker 4: he's the guy that we both picked quite a lot
- 1:27:56Speaker 4: over the years. So there's those there's no stranger to
- 1:27:59Speaker 4: the fantasy game with Land and Downing.
- 1:28:01Speaker 2: Sometimes we've picked him quite a lot in just one week,
- 1:28:04Speaker 2: same week, correct multiple positions. I feel like that's maybe
- 1:28:09Speaker 2: even happened more than once. Oh yeah, okay, So the
- 1:28:13Speaker 2: only thing left that hasn't been picked is Kicker, and
- 1:28:18Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna stick with Mount Baker here and
- 1:28:20Speaker 2: go with the freshman Enoch Smith. Is that the first
- 1:28:23Speaker 2: time he's been picked?
- 1:28:24Speaker 4: Oh yeah? Oh yeah? He was unknown in week one
- 1:28:27Speaker 4: and he wins the Special Teams Player of the Week,
- 1:28:29Speaker 4: the Pet's Real Estate Special Teams Player of the Week.
- 1:28:31Speaker 4: And he you know, he did miss an extra point
- 1:28:36Speaker 4: last week, the first one, but he made the next three.
- 1:28:38Speaker 4: That first it was a high snap, the hold came
- 1:28:40Speaker 4: down funky, and he's still almost made it. So he's
- 1:28:43Speaker 4: pretty automatic. He's pretty good.
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: Yeah, and then I'm gonna do I mean, at this
- 1:28:49Speaker 2: point I can pretty much pick anything here. I'm gonna go.
- 1:28:52Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like maybe you had these guys
- 1:28:55Speaker 2: last week, so I'll take them this week. How about
- 1:28:56Speaker 2: Linden's offensive line?
- 1:28:59Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean, yeah, exactly, Yeah, I mean that's
- 1:29:04Speaker 4: that's one of the Tyler. Yeah, you could never go
- 1:29:07Speaker 4: wrong picking the linen offensive line. I don't I don't care.
- 1:29:10Speaker 4: You know, as long as they got that green and
- 1:29:12Speaker 4: gold on and and and coach Bombers talking to those guys,
- 1:29:15Speaker 4: they'll be just fine.
- 1:29:17Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:29:18Speaker 4: And Enoch Smiths, I'm really excited about his future and
- 1:29:21Speaker 4: and what what he's what he has and and what
- 1:29:24Speaker 4: he can do. I'm going to take. I really like
- 1:29:31Speaker 4: the opportunistic defense of knok Sac Valley. You know, they
- 1:29:34Speaker 4: had the pick six last week, and I think that
- 1:29:38Speaker 4: it's just gonna keep swarming in and you know, they
- 1:29:42Speaker 4: they got you know, they kind of moved to like
- 1:29:44Speaker 4: a three man front for the first time in a
- 1:29:46Speaker 4: while and been doing it because they have so many
- 1:29:50Speaker 4: of these linebacker type bodies that can just kind of
- 1:29:52Speaker 4: roam around. You got these six five guys kind of
- 1:29:55Speaker 4: long arms, and you can depend on their veteran secondary
- 1:30:00Speaker 4: to take care of things on the back end. So
- 1:30:02Speaker 4: you can have some of these newcomers that are just
- 1:30:04Speaker 4: athletic in the middle. And I just I like the
- 1:30:06Speaker 4: long arms and the you know, the get in the
- 1:30:09Speaker 4: middle of what their kings might be trying to do.
- 1:30:12Speaker 4: So I really like that. I really like that for me,
- 1:30:15Speaker 4: Really happy about that pick. And then I'm gonna take
- 1:30:19Speaker 4: I took a back seven, and we've been really heavy
- 1:30:21Speaker 4: on the linebackers so far this year, and I'm gonna
- 1:30:24Speaker 4: continue it with the front seven with Malachi Canan and
- 1:30:28Speaker 4: I believe, I really like, you know, his ability to
- 1:30:32Speaker 4: come up and make a play. He will pop you.
- 1:30:34Speaker 4: There's certain guys Colby Martin's like that. There's certain linebackers
- 1:30:38Speaker 4: that just kind of tackle through you on a constant basis.
- 1:30:43Speaker 4: There's guys that do it every once in a while.
- 1:30:45Speaker 4: Lockeye does that a squalk and there's certain guys that
- 1:30:48Speaker 4: just do it every time they tackle through you. And
- 1:30:51Speaker 4: so and Malachi King, I think going against Marysville Pilchuck's
- 1:30:55Speaker 4: run heavy offense, he's gonna have plenty of opportunities in
- 1:30:58Speaker 4: between the tackles to make to.
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: Make a lot of tackles. I'll tell you what, Tyler,
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: you mentioned, uh a young man. There is one of
- 1:31:06Speaker 2: those guys that just runs through you there. And yeah,
- 1:31:09Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Kolby Martin in the back seven. I mean, good,
- 1:31:12Speaker 2: good call. Yeah, fight fire with fire if you will, right, Yeah,
- 1:31:17Speaker 2: and then I need I still need quarterback and receiver,
- 1:31:19Speaker 2: so I'll go, uh, you know, I'll call Nolan right
- 1:31:23Speaker 2: this week.
- 1:31:24Speaker 3: I don't even know if we've picked him yet this year.
- 1:31:26Speaker 2: We haven't, I don't think so, Yeah, which is almost
- 1:31:28Speaker 2: seems like what's the word like sacrilegion, you know what
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: I mean, Like, how do you not pick that guy yet?
- 1:31:33Speaker 4: Blasphemy?
- 1:31:34Speaker 3: Yeah, blasphemy.
- 1:31:35Speaker 2: There you go. That's a good one, Tyler. Not every
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: day we get to use blasphemy. So yeah, I'll go
- 1:31:42Speaker 2: I'll go Nolan right at quarterback.
- 1:31:45Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I love that pick especially, I mean
- 1:31:47Speaker 4: I hate that, you know, I have a receiver and
- 1:31:49Speaker 4: so you're kind of canceling me out there. But I
- 1:31:52Speaker 4: do think that at this game, like we've talked about
- 1:31:55Speaker 4: it over and over again, fireworks, you could see some
- 1:31:57Speaker 4: big numbers there. Yeah, I just need a kicker and
- 1:32:01Speaker 4: a running back and and these are my last two picks.
- 1:32:05Speaker 4: So I'm going to go Jade and Piez from playing
- 1:32:08Speaker 4: every other time he carries the ball he scores a touchdown.
- 1:32:11Speaker 4: I think he's averaging, my goodness, something I don't I mean,
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: I don't know off the top of my head, but
- 1:32:16Speaker 4: it's got to be between fifteen seventeen yards of carry
- 1:32:19Speaker 4: something crazy like that. Yeah, he's just he's he's on
- 1:32:23Speaker 4: track right now. I heard it a few times last
- 1:32:26Speaker 4: year that he was not on the top one hundred list,
- 1:32:28Speaker 4: and I think that, you know, I think he's out
- 1:32:32Speaker 4: there to prove that he's a top twenty kind of kid.
- 1:32:35Speaker 4: So and he's you know, he's just running great right now.
- 1:32:40Speaker 4: We're running with a lot of confidence. I'm going to
- 1:32:41Speaker 4: go with him, and I kind of talked about it earlier,
- 1:32:45Speaker 4: you know, needing a kicker, I I talked about it earlier,
- 1:32:48Speaker 4: you know, play on the turf. I think a field
- 1:32:50Speaker 4: goal could help see home with this back and forth game.
- 1:32:53Speaker 4: So I'm going to go Grady Evans. I went with
- 1:32:55Speaker 4: him in Week one as well. I just I really
- 1:32:57Speaker 4: really like him as a kicker. I just think that
- 1:33:00Speaker 4: this is gonna be one of those games where there's
- 1:33:04Speaker 4: gonna be a lot of extra points. But I think
- 1:33:06Speaker 4: he's gonna get that field goal in there too, to
- 1:33:08Speaker 4: kind of give see him that little bit of a
- 1:33:10Speaker 4: little bit of a edge that they need, a little
- 1:33:13Speaker 4: little bubble, you know, and Grady Evans is definitely capable
- 1:33:16Speaker 4: of hitting a field goal.
- 1:33:18Speaker 3: Uh.
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: You mentioned a little bit ago that I kind of
- 1:33:23Speaker 2: tried to cancel you out in a way by taking
- 1:33:26Speaker 2: your quarterback. So I'm gonna maybe go the opposite way
- 1:33:29Speaker 2: here and I'm gonna take Sam Arango. I'm a nice
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: You've got Heppner, I've got I've got Nolan Wright, and
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: you've got Watson and I've got Sam Wrango. So I
- 1:33:40Speaker 2: mean we're we're kind of doubling up backwards way, if
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: you will, that's true.
- 1:33:44Speaker 4: I'm gonna be sitting there rooting for Audman and you're
- 1:33:48Speaker 4: gonna be like throwing to Quiggle.
- 1:33:50Speaker 2: Yeah, throw it to anybody else, be screaming at my
- 1:33:55Speaker 2: phone watching the game on the on.
- 1:33:57Speaker 4: I tell you what the feld Quiggle had a great
- 1:33:58Speaker 4: game last week. Again, say because of the heavy coverage
- 1:34:02Speaker 4: on Watson. So he's a guy that is capable. And
- 1:34:04Speaker 4: obviously we know Isaiah Autman can do too. So there
- 1:34:06Speaker 4: are weapons, but we're going with specific ones here and
- 1:34:09Speaker 4: we'll see how that goes.
- 1:34:10Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, one of these days, maybe we'll pick
- 1:34:13Speaker 2: guys that you know a little.
- 1:34:16Speaker 3: That's what we should do sometime. We should we should
- 1:34:19Speaker 3: maybe have to go.
- 1:34:22Speaker 2: You know, what we need to do next year is
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: keep better track week to week of who we've picked,
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: and like, maybe in the first three weeks we can't
- 1:34:31Speaker 2: pick anybody that's already been picked.
- 1:34:34Speaker 4: I know, I was thinking about that because there's ten
- 1:34:36Speaker 4: weeks and there's ten teams. Yeah, wouldn't it be something
- 1:34:39Speaker 4: if we had to pick we could never pick the
- 1:34:42Speaker 4: same person until the playoffs.
- 1:34:44Speaker 2: Yeah, like, once I pick him, he's still available for you.
- 1:34:47Speaker 3: But right, yeah, we have to use.
- 1:34:50Speaker 4: All the defenses and all the offensive lines at some point,
- 1:34:52Speaker 4: and I guess all the kickers maybe.
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: Yeah, Now, just wait until both of us haven't used
- 1:34:57Speaker 2: Blaine's defense in week nine, you know what I mean
- 1:35:00Speaker 2: something like that, and we're like, ah.
- 1:35:01Speaker 4: You never know, right right, Yeah, it'd be a little crazy.
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: You have to pick Blaine's defense first, just so you
- 1:35:07Speaker 2: get a defense.
- 1:35:09Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:35:09Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like, oh, well, what are you gonna do now?
- 1:35:11Speaker 4: You're just gonna go without a defense?
- 1:35:12Speaker 3: Okay?
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: Yeah, Well somehow you might find a way to win
- 1:35:16Speaker 2: that one.
- 1:35:16Speaker 3: Tyler.
- 1:35:19Speaker 2: All right, that's it for fantasy. Let's run it down
- 1:35:22Speaker 2: real quick again. Tyler at quarterback, You've got Brent Hepner
- 1:35:25Speaker 2: running back Jayden Paie is a receiver. Andre Watson O
- 1:35:28Speaker 2: line is Blaine defense, Nooksack Valley front seven, Malachi Canaan
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: back seven, Landon Downy kicker, Grady Evans. On my side.
- 1:35:37Speaker 2: I've got Nolan right at quarterback, Talon Bung guard at
- 1:35:40Speaker 2: running back, Sam Morango at receiver, Lindon's offensive line, Mount
- 1:35:45Speaker 2: Baker's defense, Jacob Gandy's Jacob Gandy's front seven, Jacob Gandy
- 1:35:50Speaker 2: in the front seven, Kobe Martin in the back seven,
- 1:35:53Speaker 2: and Enoch Smith as my kicker.
- 1:35:57Speaker 4: What else we got?
- 1:35:58Speaker 3: Anything? Are we done? Tyler?
- 1:36:00Speaker 4: It's just another ten game week, So be patient out
- 1:36:03Speaker 4: there when I'll get to the story when I can
- 1:36:05Speaker 4: get to it. And I already looked ahead to week four,
- 1:36:08Speaker 4: and what do you know, it's another ten game weeks,
- 1:36:09Speaker 4: so oh beautiful. Yeah, So we'll get used to this
- 1:36:13Speaker 4: eventually and we'll be just fine.
- 1:36:15Speaker 2: Well, maybe next week we'll find a way to do
- 1:36:16Speaker 2: it in under an hour and forty minutes, because we're
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: at an hour thirty five right now, Tyler, And I'm
- 1:36:22Speaker 2: actually looking at my memory card notification here and he
- 1:36:25Speaker 2: actually says, we only got twenty minutes, left.
- 1:36:26Speaker 3: On the memory card.
- 1:36:27Speaker 2: I don't know how that happened, but well, let's wrap
- 1:36:29Speaker 2: it up. I must have forgot to knock some stuff
- 1:36:30Speaker 2: off there or something. All of a sudden, I look
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: up and I'm like, wait, why is that red? Oh
