0:00
Speaker 1: Rolling through a Monday and the good Land. It's the
0:02
Speaker 1: huddle through Wilson, Bill Schmid, Dave Gaspers in for Arman Today.
0:06
Speaker 1: Arman enjoying a week of vacation. Mine's coming up in
0:09
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. But we'll do for one soon. Yeah,
0:12
Speaker 1: I gotta, I gotta figure that out.
0:14
Speaker 2: The tough thing is, you know, life ends up being
0:16
Speaker 2: an ultimate vacation, right because they're not busy at all,
0:19
Speaker 2: and the I'm not worrying. They have two kids, so
0:21
Speaker 2: life is a beautiful vacation. But no, I think the
0:25
Speaker 2: tough one is actually my wife is going out of
0:28
Speaker 2: town and I was like, wow, that was gonna be
0:29
Speaker 2: a great week to go take a take a vacation
0:31
Speaker 2: my own.
0:31
Speaker 3: But now then you would look like the ultimate.
0:34
Speaker 2: You would jerk if you took the ultimate Viking weekend
0:38
Speaker 2: and you took that one. So we're gonna we'll strategically
0:40
Speaker 2: play in some of these, but uh, the month of
0:43
Speaker 2: July might be a.
0:43
Speaker 3: Little bit scarce for your boy.
0:45
Speaker 1: Right. Speaking vacations, we found out the Packers schedule for
0:49
Speaker 1: workouts and stuff. Their first day of off season program
0:53
Speaker 1: is for twenty go figure.
0:54
Speaker 2: Come on now, listen that's a tough day for that test,
0:57
Speaker 2: twenty tough day for that initial test, or maybe the
1:00
Speaker 2: best day for the test, Drew, because every you know,
1:03
Speaker 2: give yourself three weeks and then in the morning.
1:06
Speaker 1: OTAs May twenty seventh to the twenty ninth, June second
1:09
Speaker 1: to the fourth, June ninth to the eleventh, and mandatory
1:12
Speaker 1: mini camp.
1:13
Speaker 2: Will be June sixteenth and seventeenth, our first chance to
1:16
Speaker 2: see how the messaging potential shift from Matt Lafleur goes.
1:20
Speaker 2: As you know, he talked with different outlets last week
1:23
Speaker 2: at the owners meeting after saying it to the reporters,
1:26
Speaker 2: like you guys weren't comfortable with their role. Maybe it's
1:28
Speaker 2: something that I had to do and how I'm discussing
1:30
Speaker 2: and how I'm communicating to players. So are we just
1:33
Speaker 2: gonna expect to see a warm and cuddly Matt lafloor there.
1:37
Speaker 1: At the OCAs or be interesting?
1:39
Speaker 2: Is he gonna jump himself back onto the basketball floor,
1:41
Speaker 2: Drew and get competitive and playing hoops with the guys.
1:44
Speaker 3: Is that the way to connect with more?
1:46
Speaker 2: I just think it's it's funny to hear somebody actually
1:49
Speaker 2: say it.
1:49
Speaker 3: You know what I'm gonna it's gonna be.
1:51
Speaker 2: A better talker to my friends. I'm gonna communicate better
1:54
Speaker 2: with you. It's a lot easier said than done. If
1:56
Speaker 2: it's feels like you're ultimately changing a little bit of.
1:59
Speaker 1: Who you are, Absolutely true. The Ravens begin their offseason
2:02
Speaker 1: program today, and the other teams with new coaches Cardinals, Bills, Falcons, Browns, Raiders, Dolphins, Giants, Steelers,
2:09
Speaker 1: and Titans will begin tomorrow.
2:12
Speaker 2: In a ton of new There a ton of different
2:15
Speaker 2: teams that are not expected to do a whole lot
2:18
Speaker 2: of stuff. And then there's the Buffalo Bills, like smack
2:20
Speaker 2: dab right there in the middle. You almost forget that
2:23
Speaker 2: they got rid of Sean McDermott at the end of
2:25
Speaker 2: the year. And I think, objectively, the worst playoff game
2:29
Speaker 2: Josh Allen had ever played in his career cost his
2:33
Speaker 2: long time and only head coach in the NFL his job.
2:36
Speaker 3: And gives it to the offensive coordinator.
2:39
Speaker 2: Joe Brady look cool in that head coaches picture, but
2:41
Speaker 2: we're gonna see how much different that is for him
2:45
Speaker 2: going from I mean, we always say, like I know,
2:48
Speaker 2: there were some Packers fans that were talking to us
2:49
Speaker 2: during Packers otis throughout the year, like the Jeff Affley's
2:53
Speaker 2: in the building. How are you gonna let him walk
2:55
Speaker 2: go be a head coach somewhere else. It's tough when
2:57
Speaker 2: you just jump over one seat and everybody still is
2:59
Speaker 2: going to see you first as the OC. How do
3:02
Speaker 2: you transition to that head coaching hat? That's gonna be
3:04
Speaker 2: a fascinating one to watch. Well, you got me, You
3:06
Speaker 2: got me way too excited, Drew, when you've had Packer's schedule,
3:08
Speaker 2: because there was a point in time, there was a
3:11
Speaker 2: life that we lived not that long ago where the
3:14
Speaker 2: schedule came out right about now. Instead we got to
3:17
Speaker 2: wait another another month plus for them to tell you where,
3:22
Speaker 2: when and who on what day they're playing these games.
3:25
Speaker 2: That's a crazy part. Yeah, that kind of stinks.
3:28
Speaker 1: Hit us up eight seven seven seven nine, Nicolay lot
3:31
Speaker 1: com talking text. I feel free to send us your
3:33
Speaker 1: game balls and kicks the balls if you're just waking up,
3:36
Speaker 1: get them to us. You can do it on the
3:37
Speaker 1: stream as well on the YouTube stream with streaming on
3:40
Speaker 1: x and Facebook. Let's fire some up.
3:44
Speaker 2: Friend Dobbler said a game ball to Brandon Lockridge batting
3:47
Speaker 2: over a three forty eight to be exact, Sorry about that, David.
3:51
Speaker 3: Pocket turtles, pocket animals for the win.
3:54
Speaker 2: Now, Brandon Lockridge, Breckenridge might have been a little bit
3:57
Speaker 2: of a pocket secret that the Brewers had there for
4:00
Speaker 2: a while.
4:01
Speaker 3: He just he did not do the Brad Nelson drew.
4:04
Speaker 2: No, he actually brought the spring training success into the
4:08
Speaker 2: regular season, you know, coincidentally also kicking the balls to
4:11
Speaker 2: South Freelik Hitt one ninety two. But whether or not
4:14
Speaker 2: it's the Boston cooking or in I el stint, I
4:16
Speaker 2: feel like that that might change here pretty quickly.
4:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, two cities.
4:21
Speaker 3: I do not like playing it right now.
4:22
Speaker 1: And that's mill Walking Nasment. That's our kick to the
4:25
Speaker 1: ball sounder today. So yeah, Freelick with the side injury
4:29
Speaker 1: possibly oblique, we'll see, stay tuned for details.
4:32
Speaker 3: Yes, it's definitely something.
4:34
Speaker 1: About Mato's throwing a guy out in his first game
4:36
Speaker 1: with the brew crew. How about that?
4:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, base hit and like twenty four years old. He
4:40
Speaker 2: they liked him and he decimated him last year. It
4:43
Speaker 2: makes sense that they took the flyer. It's funny because
4:47
Speaker 2: the Cardinals are in rebuild mode right now. That's a
4:50
Speaker 2: beautiful thing for you to say.
4:51
Speaker 1: And they're sitting on my favorite sitting ahead of the
4:53
Speaker 1: last place Cubs in the NL Central. If you want
4:55
Speaker 1: to take a look at the standings today and clip it.
4:58
Speaker 1: You want to take the MLB standings today, clip it
5:00
Speaker 1: and pin it to the fridge. The Brewers are tied
5:02
Speaker 1: for the best record and ball with the Yankees and Dodgers.
5:04
Speaker 3: I love that, love that for US game. You know, yeah,
5:10
Speaker 3: pocket turtles.
5:12
Speaker 1: Now we have pocket turtles, pocket animals for the win.
5:15
Speaker 1: And the Brewers also have after last year's start, they
5:17
Speaker 1: have the best run differential in Major League Baseball and
5:21
Speaker 1: amongst those teams now, so they have that. But the Brewers,
5:25
Speaker 1: I've talked about it before. The Brewers are getting to
5:27
Speaker 1: this standard that I used to say with the Cardinals.
5:31
Speaker 1: The Cardinals were a team that even when they're bad.
5:34
Speaker 1: And I always say this because when you want to
5:37
Speaker 1: be a good organization in the major leagues, at your
5:39
Speaker 1: worst year of five hundred team, yep, And that's what
5:42
Speaker 1: the way the Cardinals were for the years my entire life.
5:45
Speaker 1: They're playing badly. We're in July and there are five hundred,
5:48
Speaker 1: Like there's like that would be a crisis mode, Like
5:50
Speaker 1: why aren't we better. Why aren't we like, why are
5:52
Speaker 1: we only five hundred? That was like their baseline and
5:55
Speaker 1: in their worst years they were still like had a
5:57
Speaker 1: winning record. They win eighty four games, and that was
5:59
Speaker 1: a bad year for them, and part of the hallmark,
6:02
Speaker 1: one of the hallmarks of that was that let's see,
6:05
Speaker 1: you go in to face the Cardinals and Pohols and
6:07
Speaker 1: Molina are out and they're they're taking a day off,
6:10
Speaker 1: and then like they start Craig Paquette and David Gasper
6:14
Speaker 1: and those guys combined to go like, you know, five
6:16
Speaker 1: for ten with eight RBI and they kick your ass?
6:20
Speaker 1: Are doing you put Mantos and he throws a guy
6:22
Speaker 1: out and helps win. You know, it's just whoever it
6:25
Speaker 1: is when the Birds threw Durban in there last year
6:27
Speaker 1: and he became, you know, a Rookie of the Year candidate,
6:29
Speaker 1: when they just it's just something about this land of
6:32
Speaker 1: opportunity that that you had Maddy talk about Matt Arnold
6:37
Speaker 1: talked about it, and it's like it is if you
6:40
Speaker 1: some reason, if you can be a land of misfit toys,
6:42
Speaker 1: then you can also be the rehab shop that then
6:45
Speaker 1: sells those ones, that is being able to cash in
6:48
Speaker 1: on the turn about.
6:50
Speaker 3: How about Isaac Collins?
6:51
Speaker 2: He was like, what a twenty eight year old rookie
6:52
Speaker 2: last year that would have been a rule five? Was
6:55
Speaker 2: a rule five and kind of a throwaway guy. They
6:57
Speaker 2: end up turning him and Nick mears to a hell
7:00
Speaker 2: serpa who appears to be a legit guy out of
7:03
Speaker 2: the pen because they put their pixie dust on somebody
7:06
Speaker 2: and teams then want them drew. The cardinal part is
7:09
Speaker 2: I got some pushback for saying that it felt like
7:11
Speaker 2: the Brewers were entering that zone for how teams looked
7:14
Speaker 2: at them, and I think it's I think it's spot on.
7:16
Speaker 2: And that was always the dream, was that you could
7:18
Speaker 2: be the team that moves off of the young player
7:21
Speaker 2: at the perfect time. Now, listen, we're a week in,
7:25
Speaker 2: but it sounds like the Sports Hub in Boston thinks
7:27
Speaker 2: that the Brewers did the exact same thing with Durbin,
7:30
Speaker 2: where they're like, hold on, we.
7:31
Speaker 3: Got a no ceiling player.
7:32
Speaker 2: This guy's got no ceiling and all of a sudden,
7:34
Speaker 2: now you're trading three different players and he's the centerpiece
7:37
Speaker 2: and he's got one hit through nine games. It is
7:40
Speaker 2: it's a great spot to be and It's one of
7:42
Speaker 2: the reasons why you and I were joking talking about
7:44
Speaker 2: it last week of them being like, I think unequivocally
7:48
Speaker 2: so one of the top ten organizations in all of
7:50
Speaker 2: sports because of their player development, which in baseball is
7:55
Speaker 2: going to be the most important part when you don't
7:56
Speaker 2: have money to be able to spend them buy.
7:58
Speaker 1: They can't take credit for developing Gary Sanchez. But Gary
8:02
Speaker 1: Sanchez last year with Baltimore hit five homers. He's had
8:05
Speaker 1: like eleven at bats and as three this year.
8:07
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
8:08
Speaker 1: No, Granny's comfortable. He was here in twenty twenty four
8:10
Speaker 1: and had a decent season as the backup that year.
8:13
Speaker 1: But it's like he's something about Milwaukee, Like, how about
8:17
Speaker 1: that dude? Three five home runs all last year and
8:19
Speaker 1: one hundred played appearances give him a tenth of that
8:22
Speaker 1: and he's got three.
8:23
Speaker 2: Bombs And it wasn't You're right, there wasn't just like
8:25
Speaker 2: a total lack of opportunity there in Baltimore. He got
8:28
Speaker 2: to play a little bit, but it is I don't
8:31
Speaker 2: know if that's all scouting. I don't know if that's
8:33
Speaker 2: you know, the empowering of players. I don't know if
8:35
Speaker 2: Murph gets all of that credit, but he does a
8:37
Speaker 2: really really good job of being able to reflect and
8:40
Speaker 2: it's It's pretty unique though, because it felt like Counts
8:44
Speaker 2: was going to be the one that when he left
8:47
Speaker 2: and he was gonna pluck different coaches away that you
8:50
Speaker 2: were going to see a noticeable impact. And obviously grab
8:53
Speaker 2: Quentin Berry, he wanted to take Murph and you were
8:55
Speaker 2: able to keep the rest of that coaching staff intact.
8:59
Speaker 2: They've had differ and pieces go in and out, but
9:01
Speaker 2: the core, what is it, the Ivory Tower as Murph
9:04
Speaker 2: calls it, that kind of has been all untouched and
9:08
Speaker 2: I'm wondering when that starts getting plucked from Drew as well.
9:12
Speaker 2: More of the brain trust with the Brewers and being
9:14
Speaker 2: able to identify different guys that are going to fit
9:16
Speaker 2: their mold and be able to be enhanced or a
9:19
Speaker 2: little bit improved when they get here.
9:22
Speaker 1: And just I got to remind yourself. Seven to two
9:24
Speaker 1: type for the best record in baseball. Now.
9:26
Speaker 3: Obviously it's early, sure, but.
9:29
Speaker 1: It's a much better start than last year when they
9:31
Speaker 1: won ninety seven games. I've been saying this, I don't know,
9:34
Speaker 1: Birds might be a better team this year and win
9:36
Speaker 1: fewer games. Than last year, and they don't need to
9:38
Speaker 1: go twenty nine and two totally. They're not burying themselves
9:41
Speaker 1: with a bad start.
9:43
Speaker 2: And they're still currently as we look right now, well
9:46
Speaker 2: now at plus one seventy five. The Cubs have dropped
9:48
Speaker 2: behind them at plus two hundred, but until just now
9:51
Speaker 2: they were still second in odds to win the NL Central.
9:55
Speaker 2: Even though they've had this start, you've seen with the Cubs,
9:57
Speaker 2: they've dealt with they're already dealing with some injuries as
10:00
Speaker 2: well in their pitching staff, but talent wise, roster wise,
10:04
Speaker 2: the name brands are a little bit different on the
10:06
Speaker 2: Cubs side, always has been, but it does appear now
10:09
Speaker 2: that even like yesterday, they were a plus one ten
10:11
Speaker 2: on the money line in that game. Betting against the
10:14
Speaker 2: Brewers in the regular season, that's just a dangerous, dangerous.
10:16
Speaker 1: Philosophy, especially against an American League foe. Now, the thing
10:20
Speaker 1: with the Brewers is they're nine games in and they're
10:22
Speaker 1: halfway to the first goal. I've said, learn this from
10:26
Speaker 1: Joe Tory. Get to ten over as fast as you can,
10:29
Speaker 1: because if you get to ten over five hundred, that's
10:31
Speaker 1: your first goal of any season. Because once you get there,
10:36
Speaker 1: if you look at it no matter where you are
10:37
Speaker 1: in the season. Better to do it earlier than later.
10:39
Speaker 1: But you got that buffer, and if you think about it,
10:42
Speaker 1: you get to ten games over. If you play five
10:44
Speaker 1: hundred the rest of the year, you're winning ninety games
10:47
Speaker 1: and you're in the mix. Well, ten of games over
10:48
Speaker 1: to me is the magic number. In the earlier you
10:50
Speaker 1: reach it, the better give yourself that buffer. But getting
10:53
Speaker 1: to ten games over five hundred is like it's the
10:56
Speaker 1: only regular season goal you really have the easiest benchmark.
11:00
Speaker 3: Half yes to me.
11:01
Speaker 2: I think like last year there was in that CUB
11:03
Speaker 2: series in June they were teetering with like the ten
11:07
Speaker 2: games back mark, and that would be the other one. Like,
11:09
Speaker 2: if you're looking at it from a negative side, that's
11:11
Speaker 2: brutal because you got to put in that. You got
11:13
Speaker 2: to stack three series together to get yourself back.
11:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, then you gotta. It takes you so long to
11:18
Speaker 1: dig out of that. And that's what I'm talking about.
11:19
Speaker 1: Get the ten over. Provide yourself that buffer that you
11:22
Speaker 1: can just ride out like a good that way, if
11:25
Speaker 1: somebody else is, you know, fifteen to one, you're right
11:28
Speaker 1: in the mix anyway, because they're gonna the market's gonna
11:30
Speaker 1: correct for them, for sure. It's a level of excellence
11:33
Speaker 1: is getting to ten games over five hundred and then
11:35
Speaker 1: kind of cruise from.
11:36
Speaker 2: There, I think, sadly, as the Brewers taught us quite
11:38
Speaker 2: a bit during the twenty tens in that era, you
11:42
Speaker 2: cannot win a division in September, in May or in
11:45
Speaker 2: April and May. You definitely can't in the first two months.
11:47
Speaker 2: Sure as hell can lose one. We've seen the Brewers
11:50
Speaker 2: can yourself a lot, but we have We've seen that
11:53
Speaker 2: have incredible starts before and not be able to hold on.
11:55
Speaker 3: But this one's just totally different beasts.
11:57
Speaker 1: But the Brewers were underwater in late May last year
12:00
Speaker 1: then caught fire. And but you don't need one of
12:03
Speaker 1: those historic runs now, you don't need to go twenty
12:05
Speaker 1: nine and two or whatever the hell it was. So
12:07
Speaker 1: hopefully they've baked that in and like I said, so
12:10
Speaker 1: they win, Let's say they win ninety four games this year,
12:13
Speaker 1: and well it's not as good. Well I think they're
12:15
Speaker 1: as a team, they might be better. The division's better,
12:17
Speaker 1: like Pittsburgh's not a you.
12:19
Speaker 3: Know, well that's the other thing.
12:21
Speaker 2: Now, maybe it is just the the counter Griffin boost
12:23
Speaker 2: that they ended up getting. And I'll tell you I
12:27
Speaker 2: have felt good for other groups. I felt really good
12:30
Speaker 2: for those kid those people in Pittsburgh enjoined that opening
12:33
Speaker 2: day that they had with Griffin. After they announced the contract,
12:36
Speaker 2: they had a big first inning. He goes and plates
12:38
Speaker 2: are run and scores one as well. It always also
12:41
Speaker 2: helps when you have them on the money line with
12:43
Speaker 2: potatomy sportsbog minus one.
12:44
Speaker 3: Thirty makes a lot of a lot better.
12:46
Speaker 2: But you can tell Murph has said it a couple
12:50
Speaker 2: of different times over the last couple of years, everybody
12:52
Speaker 2: in the division is trying to get better. The Reds
12:55
Speaker 2: have signed different players every single year. The Pirates actually
12:57
Speaker 2: spent money for the first time in my entire life,
13:00
Speaker 2: and the Cubs have added more now and operated like
13:05
Speaker 2: the big market, big budget team that they are for.
13:08
Speaker 3: The first time, probably since they won the title. Right
13:11
Speaker 3: like that.
13:11
Speaker 2: They have been kind of nickel and diming. Their expense
13:14
Speaker 2: reports drew since twenty sixteen, and now they're looking up
13:18
Speaker 2: ten years later and it's kind of passed them by
13:21
Speaker 2: the best division foe.
13:23
Speaker 3: And I'm excited.
13:24
Speaker 2: I love being able to clip the fact that you
13:26
Speaker 2: can sit here at seven and two, there four and
13:28
Speaker 2: five and also one game one kick to the balls
13:31
Speaker 2: to Craig Council here today. Not for anything else.
13:35
Speaker 3: I do not like playing it right now, and that's
13:37
Speaker 3: milk walking in an assment.
13:39
Speaker 2: No, it's for something that the Internet was able to acquire,
13:42
Speaker 2: and it's tough. I think we've all been there when
13:45
Speaker 2: we maybe had our first chew now sadly when I
13:49
Speaker 2: had my first show it was actually my third one,
13:51
Speaker 2: but the first long time. You know, we a lot
13:55
Speaker 2: of times are doing that in the privacy of a
13:56
Speaker 2: friend's basement or out at the park for you know,
13:59
Speaker 2: powder football practice, and instead he was doing it at
14:04
Speaker 2: Progressive Field or whatever the heck they're calling Jacob's Field nowadays.
14:07
Speaker 2: And uh man, he threw that chewing. He tossed that
14:10
Speaker 2: thing out as quick as possible because he looked like
14:12
Speaker 2: he was about to up chuck right on the field.
14:15
Speaker 2: That gag meme is gonna be one of my favorite
14:17
Speaker 2: ones to drop during all of the Brewer victories over
14:21
Speaker 2: the Cubs this year.
14:22
Speaker 4: Even better than the council like fifth Bump during spring
14:24
Speaker 4: training where he's just kind of even celebrating that they're
14:27
Speaker 4: just the coughing that choking on it.
14:30
Speaker 2: I'll be honest, I actually think I might like that
14:32
Speaker 2: one better than the phone turning and grabbing the grabbing
14:36
Speaker 2: the bullpen phone right as the ball gets hit. That
14:39
Speaker 2: was tremendous because he takes that first. He's hold on,
14:46
Speaker 2: Oh who who grabbed the kodiak?
14:52
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
14:53
Speaker 2: And it's just seeing all of the stokers tubs that
14:57
Speaker 2: you must have in the back of those dugouts and
14:59
Speaker 2: all of a sudden's wait, who who swamped my winter
15:02
Speaker 2: green out for that sooker's tap at five dollars that
15:06
Speaker 2: you guys grabbed in the back.
15:07
Speaker 1: There was a time I don't think Craig liked it
15:09
Speaker 1: when they caught him the Fox Sports Wisconsin or whatever,
15:13
Speaker 1: FanDuel or whoever they whoever the whatever that the provider was. Yeah,
15:18
Speaker 1: when he didn't like it when they caught him, you know,
15:20
Speaker 1: putting in a dip or having a dip. You know
15:22
Speaker 1: his kids are watching and stuff, and that one not flattering.
15:26
Speaker 3: Yes, yea oh man, not after me, But listen, that's
15:29
Speaker 3: what you swallow. Any even a ticke of that. We've
15:31
Speaker 3: all seen.
15:32
Speaker 2: The one body that doesn't realize that ooh, that's a
15:35
Speaker 2: little bit tighter that's a little bit disier than you
15:36
Speaker 2: thought it was.
15:38
Speaker 1: So we didn't uh, we didn't get a chance to
15:40
Speaker 1: talk about this because we talked about the April Fools
15:43
Speaker 1: prank that the Wizards pulled, and it turned out that
15:46
Speaker 1: everybody got mad at that.
15:47
Speaker 3: They had a lot of blowback, but it was a work.
15:49
Speaker 1: It was everybody from their entertainment staff that they blindfold
15:52
Speaker 1: the guy, have him shoot a half court shot, and
15:54
Speaker 1: then when they put the blindfold on, they tell the
15:55
Speaker 1: crowd to go crazy even if he misses it, because
15:57
Speaker 1: then it'll will fool him, and everybody got mad at that.
16:00
Speaker 1: The Wizards share a market with the Nationals, who had
16:06
Speaker 1: a really cool moment that went viral at their opener
16:09
Speaker 1: because it's the twenty first year of Nationals Park. This
16:13
Speaker 1: was genius and they brought in a girl and I
16:15
Speaker 1: didn't know that there was the ceremonial first sip sponsored
16:18
Speaker 1: by Budweiser. Someone they I think the Bucks should totally
16:21
Speaker 1: steal that. The box are also a Budweiser building. Sadly,
16:24
Speaker 1: to my Chagar and I can't get a high life
16:26
Speaker 1: at a Bucks game. But they should do before the tip.
16:29
Speaker 1: They should do the tip before the tip a first,
16:32
Speaker 1: you know, have baktyari or somebody just hip a beer
16:34
Speaker 1: or chug it, whatever you want to do. But they
16:36
Speaker 1: brought in this twenty one year old woman who was
16:38
Speaker 1: born on the day she was celebrating her twenty first birthday.
16:41
Speaker 1: She was born on the day that the park opened,
16:43
Speaker 1: and her parents are big Nationals fans and she's been
16:45
Speaker 1: to tons of games. There's all these pictures of her
16:46
Speaker 1: as a little kid. Sorchia Lewis was her name, and
16:50
Speaker 1: she was born on the same day of the team
16:51
Speaker 1: played its first game, and she had the ceremonial first
16:54
Speaker 1: sip and everybody's like, oh, her first legal beer is like,
16:56
Speaker 1: she chugged half of it.
16:57
Speaker 3: I don't think it was her first.
16:59
Speaker 2: I was gonna say it did it did well if
17:00
Speaker 2: it was her first. But it was really cool atmosphere,
17:04
Speaker 2: and so they celebrated that. She was celebrated for the
17:07
Speaker 2: ballpark is now of legal drinking age, and so is
17:10
Speaker 2: Sorcia Lewis, a fan who was born on that day.
17:12
Speaker 1: Cool. It's tremendous thing. Now the deal.
17:15
Speaker 2: I did not realize that this is so they do
17:17
Speaker 2: this every game apparently. That is that is the best part.
17:21
Speaker 2: I thought it was just a ceremonialbration first sip, just
17:25
Speaker 2: toast to the ballpark. But if you're doing that every
17:28
Speaker 2: single game, man, that is absolutely one.
17:30
Speaker 1: If they're not, they should. And the Brewers, given that
17:32
Speaker 1: they take their name from the brewing industry, should have
17:34
Speaker 1: a first sip as well. But it's perfect for the Bucks,
17:37
Speaker 1: the tip before the tip, because they're also a Budweiser building.
17:40
Speaker 1: If this is a thing, I don't know if it's
17:42
Speaker 1: a thing or.
17:42
Speaker 3: Not, its should be.
17:43
Speaker 2: It should be, and frankly, the Brewers should steal it
17:46
Speaker 2: because everybody has tried to steal and duplicate the sausage race.
17:50
Speaker 2: That's true, and the Nationals are one of the first ones.
17:52
Speaker 2: The stupid running presidents come on, I like that is
17:56
Speaker 2: taken right away, So we take this one just like
17:59
Speaker 2: in radio. If you steal from the Bruises sold twice right,
18:02
Speaker 2: or like from us, no question exactly. By the way,
18:05
Speaker 2: the Bucks game, I mean, the loudest pops was the
18:08
Speaker 2: building yesterday.
18:09
Speaker 1: Uh well it was kind of day. It was chills easter.
18:12
Speaker 1: Not a big crowd too, you know, basic glorified g league.
18:16
Speaker 2: Wondering how what what kind of pops were getting outside
18:21
Speaker 2: until you got to the end when the Nassas the
18:23
Speaker 2: Human Victory Cigar came in and then Alex came in
18:26
Speaker 2: and they combined on that alley oup until you got
18:28
Speaker 2: to that moment.
18:28
Speaker 1: The biggest pops, you know, Tory and Prince had hit
18:31
Speaker 1: some threes and that was cool, But the biggest pops,
18:33
Speaker 1: as always were for the brot Zuka and the gruberl
18:36
Speaker 1: Offices T shirt tossed that tale as old as time,
18:38
Speaker 1: and that sounded it sounded like the Beatles had taken
18:41
Speaker 1: the stage, right. It's like they're throwing T shirts.
18:44
Speaker 2: The brought Zuka is one of the crazier ones and
18:47
Speaker 2: they also have the thirty two degree.
18:49
Speaker 1: The put up the nice jackets. Yeah, nice jackets. But yeah,
18:53
Speaker 1: that was it was the date chill. But it was
18:56
Speaker 1: a fun afternoon.
18:56
Speaker 2: It's a good, good afternoon at the stadium. Yeah, sadly
18:59
Speaker 2: we only get one building and it's gonna be uh.
19:02
Speaker 2: There might be a lot more of those Sunday specials
19:05
Speaker 2: going forward if no does exit stage right, Oh doubt
19:09
Speaker 2: more of those Sunday Sunday Mattinees.

20:20
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool. Tom for Who's hot, Who's not? Brought
20:23
Speaker 1: to us by Donovan Jorgenson Heating and Cooling and Billy.
20:27
Speaker 1: A lot of people to choose from on this one.
20:29
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and maybe I have to rethink because Jeff
20:32
Speaker 2: and Milwaukee did say Caleb Durban actually has two hits
20:35
Speaker 2: in eight games, Billy, So I don't know, maybe I
20:36
Speaker 2: need to throw him in the in the hot category, uh,
20:39
Speaker 2: with his two hits and in twenty eight at bats
20:42
Speaker 2: with our friends from Donovan Jorgenson Heating and Cooling. But
20:44
Speaker 2: how about this one? Drew Sophia minnered yesterday. I put
20:47
Speaker 2: this out with Kyle Harrison. We touched on a little
20:48
Speaker 2: bit how nice he's been to start fourteen strikeouts in
20:52
Speaker 2: his first two starts with the Brewers, tying a guy
20:55
Speaker 2: named c. C. Sabathia for most in his first two
20:57
Speaker 2: starts by a left handed pitcher. Right, that's good company
21:01
Speaker 2: to be able to put yourself in. And the Harrison deal,
21:04
Speaker 2: obviously he's the centerpiece. He's the crown jewel man. David
21:08
Speaker 2: Hamilton has been very, very fun to be able to
21:10
Speaker 2: find for the brewers. And I'd also throw Luis Renhifo
21:15
Speaker 2: finding his way getting closer into the hot category, because man,
21:19
Speaker 2: he is just scalding baseballs. He's hit into the absolute
21:22
Speaker 2: toughest of luck for the crew. But he had three
21:24
Speaker 2: hits over the weekend as well as a two hit
21:27
Speaker 2: game in the five to two win in the first
21:30
Speaker 2: of the two on Saturday on Who's Hot Who's Not?
21:33
Speaker 2: With Donovan Jorgenson Heating and Cooling, the largest employee owned
21:36
Speaker 2: HVAC company in the Daya Wisconsin. They also right now
21:39
Speaker 2: offering zero percent financing for sixty months on select models.
21:44
Speaker 2: Go check him out right now Donovan Jorgensen dot com
21:47
Speaker 2: for more information. Not let's be honest, definitely going to
21:51
Speaker 2: be the Bucks crisis management mode for the next two
21:54
Speaker 2: to four months, where we're gonna have a lot of conversation,
21:56
Speaker 2: a lot of frustrated fans. But I do think drew
22:00
Speaker 2: as the Yannis conversation and the interview that he did
22:04
Speaker 2: with the local reporters on Friday night, if I'm I'm
22:08
Speaker 2: available to play, as he said, but I'm not in
22:09
Speaker 2: the game, I'm not I'm available to play right now.
22:11
Speaker 3: I'm available? Do I look available?
22:14
Speaker 2: I don't see myself in the start in the first
22:16
Speaker 2: twelve I don't see myself in the starting lineup. I
22:18
Speaker 2: don't know what game is being played here. I just
22:20
Speaker 2: don't want to be a part of it. It does
22:23
Speaker 2: appear that it's it's getting nastier and nastier as the
22:28
Speaker 2: summer turns and the summer gets closer, and I think
22:32
Speaker 2: we're going to find a pretty clear end in sight
22:34
Speaker 2: coming those simply.
22:35
Speaker 1: Bucks at Brooklyn tomorrow. They're in Detroit on Wednesday, home
22:41
Speaker 1: against Brooklyn on Friday, and then we'll close out the
22:44
Speaker 1: season Sunday with a five o'clock tip against the Sixers
22:49
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. So to one home game left for the Bucks.
22:52
Speaker 1: That's Friday night, their second game of the week against
22:56
Speaker 1: the Nets.
22:56
Speaker 2: And I was really looking forward to that last game
22:58
Speaker 2: of the year when the schedule first came out, because
23:00
Speaker 2: I thought, sweet Bucks are gonna be in the playoffs.
23:02
Speaker 2: Sixers are going to implode, They're going to be out
23:04
Speaker 2: of the playoffs. Embat is going to be playing thirty
23:08
Speaker 2: five games again, and it'll be a great time to
23:10
Speaker 2: talk on the Nick Nurse experiment instead they're the ones
23:13
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. The Bucks are the ones out and
23:14
Speaker 2: Giannis is the one that played thirty five games. So
23:16
Speaker 2: that one really blew up in my face on the prediction.
23:18
Speaker 2: That's pretty bizarre. Yeah, that's a tough that's a tough
23:20
Speaker 2: l taking a tough l there.
23:22
Speaker 1: So yeah, the Bucks not hot at all and it's
23:26
Speaker 1: coming to an end. It's coming to a head. One
23:29
Speaker 1: home game left the vibe I was getting yesterday when
23:32
Speaker 1: when the ante Takoombros went into the game. To me,
23:35
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, just give them a quarter. Start them,
23:37
Speaker 1: let let him get a run, start all three of them,
23:40
Speaker 1: give them a quarter together. Then sit Giannis, put him
23:43
Speaker 1: in bubble wrap and h and if that's the farewell,
23:46
Speaker 1: you're giving him one last chance to put on that uniform,
23:49
Speaker 1: work up a sweat. He's been working out before games,
23:52
Speaker 1: out there working and like during known Janni since he
23:58
Speaker 1: was eighteen. He's like, I've seen him look worse than
23:59
Speaker 1: one when he was coming back from injury and just
24:02
Speaker 1: in general when he's trying to play through stuff, then
24:05
Speaker 1: he looks right. Now, That's why, like Friday night would
24:08
Speaker 1: just make so much sense and let it be known, Hey,
24:10
Speaker 1: he's going to yeah, honest, will play on Friday, and
24:13
Speaker 1: I would do it by Wednesday and let people go
24:16
Speaker 1: and flood the arena and try to compete with a
24:19
Speaker 1: Brewers crowd that I imagine is gonna be pretty intense
24:21
Speaker 1: coming up on Friday. It's oh, for sure, it's less
24:24
Speaker 1: important now if that's Gianness's last game, very very well
24:28
Speaker 1: could be. It's definitely gonna be. It'll be the last
24:31
Speaker 1: home game for what we know now is fan Duel
24:33
Speaker 1: Sports Wisconsin, where the Buck's gonna land on TV BIRWS
24:36
Speaker 1: end up being award of MLB. That's a good question
24:38
Speaker 1: where the Buck's gonna be, Like they might end up
24:40
Speaker 1: with an over the air eighteen to twenty four situation.
24:43
Speaker 1: The NBA teams aren't as I mean, the local TV
24:47
Speaker 1: revenue is nice and all, but they're not as dependent
24:49
Speaker 1: on it, not at all. No, they're really not. Their
24:52
Speaker 1: national packages are so big.
24:54
Speaker 2: And it's all revenue shared throughout, so like it doesn't
24:58
Speaker 2: necessarily matter where how you're going games are on, you're
25:01
Speaker 2: gonna get that that massive cash either way. And let's
25:04
Speaker 2: be honest, they could do some good will. They could
25:07
Speaker 2: probably afford some if they put an over the year product.
25:10
Speaker 2: They wouldn't be the first, they wouldn't be the only one.
25:11
Speaker 1: There are a lot of other teams in the.
25:13
Speaker 3: Team and the Leagueing and Phoenix I think was one.
25:16
Speaker 1: Of people have talked about, or even now with the
25:19
Speaker 1: digital channels and stuff, or is it CBS fifty eight.
25:23
Speaker 2: I was gonna say this, I know fifty eight has
25:25
Speaker 2: a bunch of the games, but maybe they played on
25:27
Speaker 2: WMLW like it does appear that they're headed towards that.
25:31
Speaker 2: And again to have them on on over the year
25:34
Speaker 2: TV would not be a bad thing going into next
25:36
Speaker 2: year if the product is what it might forecast to.
25:39
Speaker 1: Be, or could it be in the cards and we'll
25:41
Speaker 1: waive the consulting fee that maybe the Bruis and Bucks
25:43
Speaker 1: collaborate start their own network. They tried this years ago
25:45
Speaker 1: before anybody had cable. There was something called sports View
25:48
Speaker 1: where the Bruis and Bucks were available on a paid platform.
25:51
Speaker 1: That'd be perfect and it was just ahead of its time.
25:54
Speaker 1: The reason it failed, yeah, you know you think of
25:56
Speaker 1: like Nessen and these other regional sports networks, you.
25:59
Speaker 3: Know, Chicago, whatever it is, c s N or whatever
26:05
Speaker 3: it is.
26:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, if they had one of those it was just
26:09
Speaker 1: before a few people had cable, and cable was kind
26:11
Speaker 1: of like it was the dawn of the cable era
26:13
Speaker 1: and people are like, what, you know, pay have a
26:15
Speaker 1: box on my TV and watch something. Then it became
26:18
Speaker 1: you know, it was just ahead of its time. Could
26:20
Speaker 1: they do it though, And that's the thing, they would
26:22
Speaker 1: compete for sponsors. Would it be conflicts because the Brewers
26:25
Speaker 1: are a Miller entity, the Bucks are a Budweiser entity.
26:27
Speaker 1: Would there be conflicts like that? I mean, Groober already
26:29
Speaker 1: pays for both. I was going to say, so if
26:33
Speaker 1: you have one network, are they both losing revenue on
26:36
Speaker 1: the Gruber deal? Like, for instance, if they had to
26:38
Speaker 1: share that with a network.
26:39
Speaker 3: I mean, it.
26:40
Speaker 1: Works in other markets, it might work here, but I
26:42
Speaker 1: don't know if that's in the cards or not.
26:43
Speaker 2: I mean, well, get we could get Northwestern Mutual, we
26:46
Speaker 2: can get American Family, we get all wet, all the
26:49
Speaker 2: heavy hitters, we get all of them onto one spot.
26:51
Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, it was call it
26:52
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin, Georgia.
26:54
Speaker 3: Way We'll broadcast again.
26:56
Speaker 1: Absolutely. So maybe maybe that's suggestion will spark something and
27:00
Speaker 1: will be deemed superheroes. If not our superhero of the day,
27:05
Speaker 1: brought to us by opals at Current Electric.
27:07
Speaker 2: Oh baby, well, and they could have been superheroes for
27:10
Speaker 2: our friend Aaron and Fondi who said kick to the
27:12
Speaker 2: balls to my some pump for failing on Saturday morning.
27:15
Speaker 2: Oh caught it in time before the basement fully flooded. However,
27:19
Speaker 2: I don't know if it was just the water or
27:21
Speaker 2: if it was an electrical issue. But generator is gonna
27:24
Speaker 2: be hot item coming up as springs is sprung with
27:28
Speaker 2: all the storms and baseball drew.
27:30
Speaker 1: You gotta go all week this week basically a chance
27:32
Speaker 1: of rain, like you know, heavy rain. We're already saturated,
27:34
Speaker 1: so that's gonna If you lose power.
27:37
Speaker 3: It's gonna be tough.
27:37
Speaker 2: Make sure that you not only save that food and
27:40
Speaker 2: medicine in your fridge, but that some pump in your
27:42
Speaker 2: basement continues to run. Go to call Current dot com.

27:53
Speaker 2: The other superhero I had, guys, was now the picture
27:58
Speaker 2: feels like he becomes even more of a superhero. But
28:02
Speaker 2: Joe Adell, outfielder for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim
28:06
Speaker 2: who play in Orange County, drew he had himself a
28:09
Speaker 2: superhero like effort in a one nothing victory over the
28:12
Speaker 2: weekend where he robbed not one, not two, but three
28:18
Speaker 2: homers and the third of which my man leaps actually
28:23
Speaker 2: into the stands into Row one, catches the ball, stands up,
28:28
Speaker 2: and Kay Underscore cross Or Kraus on Instagram got the
28:32
Speaker 2: coolest photo of all time as he's standing up holding
28:37
Speaker 2: the glove and the entire stadium around and the people
28:41
Speaker 2: in the front row are like, wait a second, is
28:43
Speaker 2: this guy literally in my lap after he just caught
28:45
Speaker 2: a home run to save the game.
28:47
Speaker 3: Ridiculous game.
28:49
Speaker 2: And I don't know that you're ever seeing that ever
28:51
Speaker 2: again outside of like MLB the show early days where
28:54
Speaker 2: you could scale the entire wall and rob the home
28:57
Speaker 2: runs or in the old Biggs game, I don't think
28:59
Speaker 2: you're seeing somebody robbed three bombs in one game.
29:02
Speaker 1: That was wild. Three bombs in a three robberies in
29:05
Speaker 1: a season is a good season.
29:06
Speaker 2: And he had all wrapped up in wrapped up in
29:09
Speaker 2: one for the former tenth overall pick, so shout out,
29:11
Speaker 2: Joe Adell doesn't seem like he's been the greatest uh
29:14
Speaker 2: career yet for for Joe Adell, he had a big
29:16
Speaker 2: year last year, but uh, that's a hell of a
29:18
Speaker 2: moment right there.
29:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, tenth overall, pick one spot after Keston Hira in
29:24
Speaker 4: that draft in twenty seventeen. And also I saw like
29:26
Speaker 4: they started officially tracking home run robberies in twenty twelve.
29:31
Speaker 4: Until Joe Adell, no one had ever had more than
29:33
Speaker 4: one in a single game, Like, no one had had two.
29:37
Speaker 4: And then he had three.
29:38
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I hope he did, like a h
29:40
Speaker 2: I think he should have taken a card out of
29:43
Speaker 2: the the Wilt page and just held up three and
29:45
Speaker 2: people had to look at that going for like, you're
29:48
Speaker 2: never You're never touching this record, Bob. I don't know
29:50
Speaker 2: that you're gonna ever get three chances at it. Let
29:53
Speaker 2: a loan in the season, like you mentioned, but have
29:55
Speaker 2: three in a game, that's a that's a ridiculous, ridiculous number.
29:58
Speaker 1: Pretty Brewers had a handful, you know, they've had with
30:01
Speaker 1: free Look and Perkins.
30:02
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, Blake Perkins, I think has the
30:04
Speaker 2: most I've ever seen from someone.
30:05
Speaker 1: Those are game changers. You rob a home run, that's
30:08
Speaker 1: a game changer. I would you and I have had
30:11
Speaker 1: this conversation. I think it's one of my favorites. I
30:13
Speaker 1: would rather have back to back doubles than the solo
30:15
Speaker 1: home run. Yeah, man, you get the run, but you
30:20
Speaker 1: keep the rally rolling a little bit. That's my counterintuitive thing.
30:23
Speaker 1: I got to talk to the numbers guys because I always say,
30:25
Speaker 1: if you're down by let's say you're down by two
30:27
Speaker 1: runs and you're in the bottom of the ninth inning,
30:29
Speaker 1: you want to lead off homer or you want to
30:31
Speaker 1: lead off double. Which one sets you up to win
30:33
Speaker 1: the game? Which one wins the game? More often? The
30:36
Speaker 1: leadoff homer might rattle the picture and stuff, and maybe
30:38
Speaker 1: it'll lead to a bigger inning and it gets you closer.
30:40
Speaker 1: But the double puts pressure on the defense, puts pressure
30:43
Speaker 1: on the picture.
30:43
Speaker 3: Everybody's thinking it very gets excited.
30:46
Speaker 1: Do you score more runs with a leadoff homer in
30:48
Speaker 1: an inning or a leadoff double. That's the question where
30:51
Speaker 1: statman steve when we need him.
30:52
Speaker 2: I was gonna say that there's got to be a
30:54
Speaker 2: clear amount of numbers on that, but it's it just
30:56
Speaker 2: it feels like a robbery of a home run would
30:59
Speaker 2: be in that same Those are game change.
31:01
Speaker 3: That Carlos Gomez. Yeah, the closest thing about a couple
31:07
Speaker 3: of walks off six in the NFL.
31:09
Speaker 1: That's exactly. Yeah, that that is a to end an
31:12
Speaker 1: inning like that and Robin game over. They say the
31:15
Speaker 1: double plays the pitcher's best friend. Well, I don't know that.
31:17
Speaker 1: Robbery at the at the fence is pretty nice too.
31:19
Speaker 3: When you have the reaction saying, son of them.
31:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're holding back your neck after the whip lashes,
31:26
Speaker 2: You're seeing the things fly out into the sky and
31:28
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, whoa, Hey, okay, never mind, I
31:30
Speaker 2: don't have to throw another one.
31:32
Speaker 4: Did you see the game plan that uh whoever was
31:36
Speaker 4: that they were playing that they wrote on their whiteboard
31:38
Speaker 4: the next day.
31:39
Speaker 3: Hit it away from Joe. Yeah, there's a game plan.
31:42
Speaker 3: Don't hit to Joe Adele. That'll probably work out pretty
31:46
Speaker 3: well for you. That's a good way to start right there.
31:48
Speaker 1: That's right.
31:49
Speaker 2: So Rally was one of the first victims. My man's
31:51
Speaker 2: still waiting for his first bomb. I think he's going
31:53
Speaker 2: to hit enough, but it's.
31:55
Speaker 1: A long way.
31:55
Speaker 3: He'll be fine, he'll be fine.
31:57
Speaker 1: N c Double A Championship Monday night, we say goodbye
32:01
Speaker 1: to that and then we get ready to gear up
32:02
Speaker 1: for the Frozen Four this weekend. That'll take us into
32:04
Speaker 1: Masters Week. But NCAA Championship Michigan and Yukon should be epic.
32:09
Speaker 1: I think we got a big injury, kind of like
32:12
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, some hangover for both teams.
32:15
Speaker 2: Solo ball, they said they think he's gonna go, even
32:18
Speaker 2: though he was in a walking boat yesterday.
32:20
Speaker 3: And Lindeborg Lindenborg for sure.
32:23
Speaker 2: I didn't realize Drew that you could just walk in,
32:25
Speaker 2: drop two triples down right after missing the first uh
32:28
Speaker 2: most of the first half, and still be the problem.
32:31
Speaker 2: But he was phenomenal that whole team and Mara. We
32:34
Speaker 2: were talking about it with Dolf. It sure helps to
32:37
Speaker 2: be what seven to four in most situations for Mara, nobody.
32:42
Speaker 3: Had any any answer for him.
32:45
Speaker 2: It does feel like if anybody could, Yukon could with
32:47
Speaker 2: their with their bigs inside to frustrate him a little bit.
32:50
Speaker 2: I hope it's a good game. You said it perfectly though.
32:54
Speaker 2: Be a game worth staying up for. That's be a
32:57
Speaker 2: game worth staying up for. B are A expresso espresso
33:01
Speaker 2: shot there at the twelve minute mark of the second half,
33:04
Speaker 2: and don't have me reading my eyelids.
33:05
Speaker 1: That is our mission, no question. All right, man, We're
33:09
Speaker 1: already to the finish line. Eight seven seven seven three.
33:13
Speaker 1: If you got a last minute game ball or kick
33:16

Speaker 1: and some wonderful restaurants and all the things that Armond does,
33:47
Speaker 1: looking for the best deals he can find.
33:49
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, oh, let's be honest, he's just
33:50
Speaker 2: trying to find the best deals and anything free. It's
33:53
Speaker 2: me and give him three. The interesting thing about Dave
33:56
Speaker 2: checking in early with us Drew is he's now like
33:59
Speaker 2: Luddy is the uh, the ceremonial single guy that we've
34:02
Speaker 2: all we all think of. However, Dave is also the
34:05
Speaker 2: single guy that's right, we kind of forget about so
34:08
Speaker 2: like him waking up so early with us, we're really
34:10
Speaker 2: cramp in his style. So we apologize for what we're
34:12
Speaker 2: gonna do, potentially killing the walk up traffic for the
34:15
Speaker 2: next couple of days.
34:15
Speaker 3: While you're in here with it's all good. There wasn't
34:18
Speaker 3: much walk up traffic anyway. Well with that attitude, it
34:20
Speaker 3: would come out of that attitude.
34:22
Speaker 2: Come on, we got we we were trying, I mean,
34:27
Speaker 2: Luddy and I were hitting and hitting the town over
34:29
Speaker 2: the weekend, and you know, we're trying to make some efforts.
34:32
Speaker 3: I felt terrible.
34:32
Speaker 2: I got the I got the text Drew on h
34:35
Speaker 2: on Friday night from Dave said, uh, hey man, you
34:37
Speaker 2: want to meet Leuddy and I downtown And I was like,
34:41
Speaker 2: I took the deep sigh and the realization of just
34:44
Speaker 2: how old you get, how quickly you do? I was like, brother,
34:48
Speaker 2: I would love to. I need like three days to
34:51
Speaker 2: prep my body.
34:52
Speaker 1: Now. Yeah, kids are gonna wake up no matter whether
34:56
Speaker 1: you go to joke cats for one or five or not.
35:00
Speaker 2: And one is one is not enough and five's way
35:02
Speaker 2: too many. So well, let's be honest, not enough. I
35:05
Speaker 2: was gonna probably go to the nine and then I
35:07
Speaker 2: would be waking up before nine in the same fashion.
35:10
Speaker 2: But it is the I would prep with as much
35:14
Speaker 2: napping as possible in the house, right, But I do
35:18
Speaker 2: need a little bit of build up time. So next
35:20
Speaker 2: time this is gonna go down where where it's gonna
35:22
Speaker 2: be a real send it in on a Friday night.
35:25
Speaker 2: I just need to I need to know by like
35:27
Speaker 2: Wednesday to start prepping my body because then by Monday morning,
35:31
Speaker 2: Drew the hangover will start subsiding.
35:33
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, yeah, See, I didn't have much lead
35:35
Speaker 4: up time either. I mean I was just there with
35:37
Speaker 4: Luddy for the Admirals and he's like, hey, after the game,
35:39
Speaker 4: you want to go. I'm like, yes, sure, why not?
35:41
Speaker 4: So they kind of came together last minute. But yeah,
35:43
Speaker 4: we're down there at Jokeats kind of finishing off the
35:47
Speaker 4: night and me and Luddy are sitting there. The next thing,

35:53
Speaker 4: two little shockglasses. She's like, oh, these are from these

Speaker 2: Yeah, we are no longer killing the walk up traffic,
37:37
Speaker 2: that story is gonna kill it.
37:39
Speaker 1: That is that's a brutal beat.
37:41
Speaker 2: That's that's not even the arm and cookie theories on
37:44
Speaker 2: a victory. That's where you think, holy cow, we're taking
37:47
Speaker 2: this thing right downtown instead.
37:49
Speaker 1: And it was a closing time situation.
37:51
Speaker 4: Too, Yeah it was closing time, you know, just a
37:53
Speaker 4: little bit before and yeah, looking at us a little
37:57

38:17
Speaker 4: they just got in the ubur and left. There's like, oh,
38:20
Speaker 4: let let's have some fun pranking these guys sitting over
38:22
Speaker 4: here at the bar.
38:25
Speaker 1: Wow.
38:25
Speaker 3: So yeah, it was. It was a tough go. It's
38:28
Speaker 3: a tough go.
38:29
Speaker 1: Man.
38:30
Speaker 2: I feel bad, but that's that's actually that actually hurts
38:34
Speaker 2: even worse. That's a that's a cut deep. Oh my goodness,
38:37
Speaker 2: eight seven seven seven nights.
38:38
Speaker 3: Basically, what happened that that was that was a kick
38:42
Speaker 3: to the ball.
38:42
Speaker 1: Soud and Gasper were on a team that just won.
38:46
Speaker 1: Like playing.
38:49
Speaker 3: I wouldn't like playing a team either that.
38:52
Speaker 1: They playing a team that just it's the ninth inning
38:54
Speaker 1: and it's eighteen to two. Your team is winning. But
38:57
Speaker 1: you and Leddy are the only guys that are ophers.
39:00
Speaker 1: Everybody else has been just raking and.
39:02
Speaker 2: You guys only phil on the talking text line.
39:08
Speaker 3: Yikes, maybe you shouldn't share that.
39:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we have we have some other good texts
39:16
Speaker 2: before we get out of here. How about how about
39:19
Speaker 2: a good shout out from our friend Amy by the
39:21
Speaker 2: pool game ball to the u W River Falls D
39:23
Speaker 2: three National champions and hockey for the women. Come on out,
39:27
Speaker 2: let's let's get a relative on the team or give
39:30
Speaker 2: that shout out where we always enjoy celebrating River Falls.
39:33
Speaker 3: But and it leads into the state of hockey more
39:36
Speaker 3: than anything.
39:37
Speaker 2: Right, So like we've had, we've got the women's team
39:39
Speaker 2: on the Badgers women at River Falls. That's why we
39:43
Speaker 2: need the Badgers to go in Roundhouse, North Dakota on
39:46
Speaker 2: Thursday night, get to the National Championship on Saturday. And
39:50
Speaker 2: when you talk about drinking somebody out of beer, Wisconsin
39:54
Speaker 2: fans are.
39:54
Speaker 3: Going to do a lot for it.
39:56
Speaker 2: This whole grouping of final four teams, frozen four teams,
40:01
Speaker 2: there's always that group that boards the plane and says
40:03
Speaker 2: Vegas isn't ready for us. I think these beer drinking
40:07
Speaker 2: hockey fans that actually might live up to the billing
40:10
Speaker 2: of where Vegas might not be fully ready for the
40:12
Speaker 2: amount of Miller life.
40:13
Speaker 1: They're gonna run through Rodgers fans in North Dakota whatever
40:16
Speaker 1: their nickname is since they changed it. No longer the.
40:18
Speaker 3: Fighting Sue but something something cool.
40:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna be That's a tough tough day for
40:24
Speaker 2: the bartenders.
40:24
Speaker 3: I don't think they're gonna be doing any sweet mixing
40:26
Speaker 3: of drinks.
40:27
Speaker 1: A lot of t happen, all right, doubleheader tonight, we
40:30
Speaker 1: got the brewers and then the National Championship game. We'll
