- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome seven o'clock clubbers.
- 0:02Speaker 2: People just waking up with us now, people going about
- 0:04Speaker 2: their day listening to us, streaming us. We appreciate each
- 0:07Speaker 2: and every one of you for doing so, and we'd
- 0:10Speaker 2: appreciate your hot takes at eight seven, seven, seven, nine
- 0:12Speaker 2: four one, nine, seven to three. Let's get some juice
- 0:15Speaker 2: going on the Nicolay Lott com talk at text line
- 0:17Speaker 2: and the comments come on on the stream on YouTube
- 0:20Speaker 2: as well.
- 0:21Speaker 3: They have been rolling in pretty good here, So we
- 0:23Speaker 3: do have a lot of hot takes here for Wednesday,
- 0:25Speaker 3: and I'll try and get some more up here, but
- 0:27Speaker 3: we do have a lot of them rolling in there.
- 0:29Speaker 3: One of them's not a hot take, but I do
- 0:30Speaker 3: like the question that Steve asked of what do you
- 0:33Speaker 3: think of Lafleur's comments that he said about love?
- 0:37Speaker 1: Was it a confidence boost?
- 0:38Speaker 3: The quote that he mentioned that he's referencing to NFL
- 0:41Speaker 3: Network When Matt was talking to Brian Baldinger and Stacey
- 0:45Speaker 3: Dales mentioning Jordan's command of the huddle and the line
- 0:50Speaker 3: of scrimmage, being able to manipulate checks, change the protections,
- 0:55Speaker 3: and being able to get the offense in the perfect
- 0:58Speaker 3: protection look. He had said that he's the best he's
- 1:01Speaker 3: ever been around, and instantly drew. They they said, wait
- 1:04Speaker 3: a second, what what what?
- 1:05Speaker 1: What?
- 1:06Speaker 3: What better than Aaron Rodgers? Better than Aaron Rodgers? And
- 1:10Speaker 3: he had mentioned Aaron was very very good at it.
- 1:12Speaker 3: He might get mad at me for saying it, but
- 1:14Speaker 3: I do agree, and we've seen it, whether on TV
- 1:18Speaker 3: at road games, Drew or you see it even more
- 1:21Speaker 3: at home games high above. The ability for him to
- 1:25Speaker 3: manipulate the slides on the line of scrimmage has has
- 1:28Speaker 3: really been sublime. It's one of the reasons why they
- 1:31Speaker 3: were not He wasn't as sacked as he probably could
- 1:34Speaker 3: have been behind a rather porous offensive line last year,
- 1:36Speaker 3: a good point.
- 1:38Speaker 1: They very much could have.
- 1:39Speaker 3: He could have been a much higher sacked quarterback, not
- 1:41Speaker 3: only from his way of moving around in the pocket,
- 1:43Speaker 3: but just his ability to control that part of the game.
- 1:46Speaker 1: Very true.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Packers Steelers tomorrow evening exhibition open, you're gonna see Aaron
- 1:51Speaker 2: Rodgers and Jordan Love.
- 1:53Speaker 3: Now potentially, as Mike McCarthy said yesterday, Jerry Dulac, a
- 1:59Speaker 3: long time Pitchburg scribe, said that nothing has been decided.
- 2:02Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy said, but the first group would play a
- 2:05Speaker 3: series or two. He said on Aaron quote, we've been
- 2:08Speaker 3: talking about playing or not playing since he signed. I
- 2:11Speaker 3: mean he prefers to play. Brett Farv wanted to play.
- 2:16Speaker 3: I've never had a quarterback that did not want to play.
- 2:19Speaker 3: A much different tone when Aaron Rodgers spoke to reporters
- 2:23Speaker 3: in the day, he said, it is quote not real football.
- 2:29Speaker 3: On the thoughts of wanting to play or needing to
- 2:31Speaker 3: play coming up in the preseason preseasons, a lot different
- 2:34Speaker 3: teams don't run anything.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Quote, they just don't.
- 2:37Speaker 3: I think preseason football is good to see guys with
- 2:39Speaker 3: the pads on under the lights, how they react to
- 2:42Speaker 3: the nerves. But it's not real regular season. I mean,
- 2:45Speaker 3: he's right, who's debating that. I don't think anyone is.
- 2:49Speaker 3: It's real and that they're tackling and hitting and things,
- 2:51Speaker 3: but it's not asking if he'd play. Quote, it's preseason.
- 2:54Speaker 3: It's not real football. So if I do great, if
- 2:57Speaker 3: not great, Basically, it doesn't matter what I said.
- 3:00Speaker 2: That doesn't sound like a guy banging on the coach's
- 3:02Speaker 2: door trying to get in.
- 3:04Speaker 3: No.
- 3:04Speaker 1: But one series or two.
- 3:05Speaker 2: They're not handing in there. They're not handed in the Jerseys.
- 3:08Speaker 2: If Rudy doesn't play, Yeah, that's interesting because well and
- 3:16Speaker 2: if you well, what do you what's the schedule? Like,
- 3:20Speaker 2: you gotta have a blueprint going into every game. Pat
- 3:22Speaker 2: Murphy and Chris look, they got a blueprint of the
- 3:24Speaker 2: way they want the game to go. What the bullpen's
- 3:26Speaker 2: gonna look like? And oh deal, best case scenario, what
- 3:29Speaker 2: is the blueprint? Because if you don't play Love tomorrow,
- 3:34Speaker 2: you're gonna play him in Denver? Do you play them
- 3:35Speaker 2: tomorrow and not in Denver? You wait until the home
- 3:38Speaker 2: playoff exhibition game. But that's coming off with the are
- 3:43Speaker 2: getting a lot of Yeah.
- 3:44Speaker 1: The joint price.
- 3:45Speaker 2: When guys are getting a lot of burn, that's almost
- 3:48Speaker 2: like a game.
- 3:48Speaker 3: So I don't know how you see it, Drew, I
- 3:50Speaker 3: would have seen the map that I would have had
- 3:53Speaker 3: is and and I changed my tune because thinking about it,
- 3:56Speaker 3: you're a month away from your first regular season game
- 3:59Speaker 3: coming up tomorrow September thirteenth is when you kick off
- 4:02Speaker 3: with JJ Watt on the call on CBS alongside chim.
- 4:05Speaker 1: Nance in Minnesota.
- 4:07Speaker 3: So that's a long time for that work to really
- 4:11Speaker 3: factor in. But then give it, you know, fifteen days
- 4:14Speaker 3: or eighteen days before then you go into the joint practice.
- 4:17Speaker 1: That's two and a half weeks before you play.
- 4:18Speaker 3: I thought that was the easiest one if you're gonna
- 4:21Speaker 3: get a game rep in, because the Packers have played
- 4:23Speaker 3: him in at least one game in every year that
- 4:25Speaker 3: he's been the starter. Yeh, and the first one seems
- 4:29Speaker 3: like the one they've gone to. Last year they played
- 4:30Speaker 3: him against the Jets, and now remember.
- 4:32Speaker 1: It was not good.
- 4:33Speaker 3: He had hit his hand, had the little thing on
- 4:36Speaker 3: the thumb. I think there he was like one of five.
- 4:38Speaker 3: It was kind yeah, didn't engender a whole lot of confidence.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Then shut him down and get ready for the opener.
- 4:43Speaker 3: I think preseason opener joint practice would be the easiest one.
- 4:47Speaker 3: But talking to Wayn Lairvy yesterday and Training Camp Live,
- 4:49Speaker 3: he kind of convinced me that maybe you also will
- 4:52Speaker 3: see them for a series or two in Pittsburgh and
- 4:55Speaker 3: a series or two in Denver in between with the
- 4:57Speaker 3: joint practice line.
- 4:59Speaker 2: Old enough to remember when they had four preseason games.
- 5:01Speaker 2: The first game was like two series yep. Second game
- 5:05Speaker 2: was a half. Third game you'd come out a half
- 5:07Speaker 2: time and play in the third quarter. In the fourth game,
- 5:09Speaker 2: you'd be in sweats and a hat into the third Yes,
- 5:12Speaker 2: for sure. So that was it. That was the protocol.
- 5:14Speaker 3: And one of the only teams that still plays almost
- 5:18Speaker 3: that way, the Kansas City Chiefs. Yeah, like if you
- 5:22Speaker 3: watch now, it'll be interesting with Mahomes coming off of
- 5:25Speaker 3: the ACL.
- 5:26Speaker 1: He's full of go at practice. He's been full go
- 5:28Speaker 1: since they started.
- 5:30Speaker 3: Andy Reid has played Mahomes every preseason that he's been there,
- 5:34Speaker 3: and like a full half in the second game and
- 5:36Speaker 3: then they've usually sad in the third one, they've gone
- 5:39Speaker 3: like a quarter and a half. I'll be interested to
- 5:41Speaker 3: see what the injury if he does. But that's a
- 5:44Speaker 3: team that's been winning Super Bowls and playing longer seasons
- 5:47Speaker 3: than anybody else drew and they're the ones that are
- 5:49Speaker 3: starting their year earlier. Like, yeah, McVeigh had a great
- 5:53Speaker 3: hack when he came into the league first first year
- 5:56Speaker 3: that he's the head coach of the Rams not playing
- 5:59Speaker 3: a single soul in the preseason. They start six and
- 6:01Speaker 3: oh well it works. One time everybody wanted to jump
- 6:05Speaker 3: on the new kid with the new kids on the
- 6:06Speaker 3: block and maybe over corrected that there's got to be
- 6:10Speaker 3: something And you hear zeebach Uh Zach Bacaboweli mentioned it
- 6:14Speaker 3: in the offseason workouts and again now in front of
- 6:18Speaker 3: his locker of like for a guy coming off with
- 6:19Speaker 3: a tele injury, there's something to me playing real football,
- 6:24Speaker 3: and you just can't manufacture that even in the joint practice,
- 6:26Speaker 3: which is as close to but not in front of
- 6:29Speaker 3: seventy thousand people.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Ze Bach, I like that. Are you doing that now?
- 6:32Speaker 1: I like that?
- 6:33Speaker 3: Well? That was that was asked of him by Wildi
- 6:36Speaker 3: on the request of David Bochtieri and Brian Block. David
- 6:41Speaker 3: Bochtieri then also put it out there when Willy said
- 6:44Speaker 3: the quote from Zach tom of, I like that. It's short,
- 6:46Speaker 3: it's quick. We've been trying to figure out what I
- 6:48Speaker 3: should go by. We've been trying to find something zee
- 6:50Speaker 3: Bach does work. David Bactieri gave him the little shaking
- 6:53Speaker 3: of the hand bock to z Bach because I was
- 6:56Speaker 3: talking to Shanna, you know, and I was mentioning how
- 6:58Speaker 3: usually for hiphenand names, we use all three initials, and
- 7:02Speaker 3: that would be ZBB with Zach brownbands. I don't know
- 7:05Speaker 3: how that would all work in there, Maybe a collab,
- 7:07Speaker 3: I don't know, but I like ze Boch too.
- 7:08Speaker 1: It's pretty good. So you already trying to be.
- 7:12Speaker 3: Trying to find some country, uh, trying to find some
- 7:14Speaker 3: connections for Shannon and her first preseason names that she's
- 7:17Speaker 3: gonna be dropping in what they've done, because we will
- 7:19Speaker 3: have Shanna for a couple of games, right and is
- 7:22Speaker 3: back together.
- 7:22Speaker 2: Mike Keller doing the pregame show with Dennis Crowsey west
- 7:25Speaker 2: Hose Woitz.
- 7:25Speaker 1: And James Jones. Phenomenal, Yeah, Billy.
- 7:28Speaker 2: And oh and for those of you listening in Milwaukee,
- 7:31Speaker 2: you can hear the Packers on nine twenty.
- 7:33Speaker 3: Right here, on nine twenty baby right here, and then
- 7:36Speaker 3: wake Cass along.
- 7:37Speaker 1: With our friends over at ninety five seven. Indeed you can.
- 7:41Speaker 1: You can hear all those places, so awesome stuff.
- 7:44Speaker 2: So yeah, that's so we Oh man, it's hard believe
- 7:46Speaker 2: we're knocking the rust off the preseason.
- 7:48Speaker 1: It's crazy. It will be.
- 7:51Speaker 2: You'll hear us on Thursday until midnight. So if you're
- 7:53Speaker 2: leaving the State Fairry, you can turn us on.
- 7:54Speaker 3: Turn us on and get all of thecalf of whatever,
- 7:57Speaker 3: you know, fifteen to twenty plays.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Maybe get of Jordan Morgan going up against Nick Herbig.
- 8:03Speaker 3: That would angle playing the Packers, even though it's a
- 8:05Speaker 3: meaningless game.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Does that diminish? Does it takeaway from the local angle
- 8:11Speaker 2: of TJ. Watt getting beat up every time the Packers
- 8:14Speaker 2: would play the Steelers and everybody focusing on TJ.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Watt. That's a good one. Yeah, it does take a
- 8:19Speaker 1: little bit of those bent or done that. But this
- 8:21Speaker 1: is the new one. This is the new new banner
- 8:24Speaker 1: for us.
- 8:24Speaker 3: Watt still one of the best players and the you know,
- 8:27Speaker 3: indeed still one of the best players and the guys
- 8:28Speaker 3: in ball. And it's not only Nick Herbig and and
- 8:31Speaker 3: a lot of the former Badgers. Keanu Benton there as well,
- 8:34Speaker 3: was a big factor for that defense a year ago.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Steelers are an interesting team.
- 8:39Speaker 3: They're getting zero love in zero respect in there in
- 8:43Speaker 3: that building and nationally.
- 8:45Speaker 1: For the team that ended up winning the division a
- 8:47Speaker 1: year ago. Who did McCarthy bring in as his DC?
- 8:51Speaker 2: That is a great great remember I don't remember who
- 8:54Speaker 2: he brought in.
- 8:55Speaker 3: It is one of one of his old old guys
- 8:58Speaker 3: that they've had in there as well. Boy, I can't
- 9:02Speaker 3: remember that either. Steelers DC is Patrick Graham. He was
- 9:06Speaker 3: with the Raiders before and had previously stops in New
- 9:11Speaker 3: York as well, so check that had not worked with
- 9:13Speaker 3: McCarthy as a previous defensive coordinator. But Patrick Graham was
- 9:17Speaker 3: on the Packer staff in eighteen when McCarthy was let go,
- 9:21Speaker 3: so he has worked together. McCarthy's got the band back together.
- 9:24Speaker 3: He's got a lot of those guys that were with
- 9:27Speaker 3: him towards the end in Green Bay alongside. And there's listen,
- 9:32Speaker 3: we mentioned Bill Belichick earlier on here. Today, there's a
- 9:34Speaker 3: lot of guys and a lot of coaches that at
- 9:37Speaker 3: the end of your tenuere you're going back to the
- 9:39Speaker 3: dudes that you are comfortable with. Because this is one
- 9:41Speaker 3: last chance, one last ride, you might as well be
- 9:44Speaker 3: there with guys that you feel rather confident with.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Rebonding, bonding Rogers I heard.
- 9:49Speaker 2: I heard an interview where Rogers said, you know, he
- 9:51Speaker 2: was leaning towards hanging it up, and then McCarthy's like, oh,
- 9:53Speaker 2: go one more year, go one more year. Was it
- 9:56Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy or James Campen that made him come back?
- 9:58Speaker 2: Because he was so tight with hap love Campy. He
- 10:03Speaker 2: didn't have any beef with Campy at beef with McCarthy.
- 10:06Speaker 3: No, and well, and he also said that, uh, you
- 10:09Speaker 3: know his wife was one of the biggest reasons why.
- 10:11Speaker 1: That's right, he decided to come back and see his
- 10:14Speaker 1: family again, and his family again. I do, though I
- 10:19Speaker 1: wonder how much of it is.
- 10:20Speaker 3: Just like if I can really just tie the book
- 10:23Speaker 3: on this whole thing, there's really not a better way
- 10:25Speaker 3: to finish it off, Like if you are looking at
- 10:28Speaker 3: it from the narratives, and I don't know that that's
- 10:30Speaker 3: exactly his lively livelihood. It's a great way to tie
- 10:33Speaker 3: all of the loose ends of your career up in
- 10:35Speaker 3: one nice ribbon. The idea that he'll win a super
- 10:38Speaker 3: Bowl is probably far fetch, though I think he knows that.
- 10:40Speaker 3: But I think the reality is just to like use
- 10:43Speaker 3: the loose ends of finishing a career this way.
- 10:45Speaker 1: Yeah, why not? And maybe they can make a run.
- 10:47Speaker 1: We'll see. They were a playoff team last year.
- 10:49Speaker 3: And then I read that he what had the flu
- 10:52Speaker 3: right during the playoff game that was his excuse for
- 10:54Speaker 3: why he played bad, or he was dealing with the.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Flu that week.
- 10:56Speaker 3: Maybe I thought I saw so, Yeah, the Houston Texans
- 11:00Speaker 3: will will and.
- 11:03Speaker 1: That's it, no doubt, all right.
- 11:05Speaker 3: We have a hot take on the Nick laylaw dot
- 11:07Speaker 3: com talking text line not sports related, but what the heck, well,
- 11:10Speaker 3: I'll lob it over to you, guys, Dustin hot take.
- 11:13Speaker 3: People jogging and running on county roads and highways are
- 11:16Speaker 3: selfish blanks. I can't say that word because it's not
- 11:19Speaker 3: safe harbor anymore, especially on a foggy morning. Blank in
- 11:23Speaker 3: health blank dorks are the worst. Okay, Oh you can
- 11:26Speaker 3: say freaking oh what was freaking okay? Yeah, yeah, no, no,
- 11:30Speaker 3: no, no no no, no, yeah, I got you. You know,
- 11:34Speaker 3: everyone's selfish. Everyone's trying to do their thing. They're trying
- 11:37Speaker 3: to get to work out, and you're trying to drive.
- 11:39Speaker 3: So I don't I don't know that there's facing traffic.
- 11:41Speaker 1: You know the I don't know about what do you think?
- 11:46Speaker 3: I don't say why it's scary on a foggy and
- 11:48Speaker 3: I don't drive county highways. And I was gonna say
- 11:51Speaker 3: it's the county highway one where I would I. I
- 11:54Speaker 3: see Dustin's point significantly, okay, because those are already.
- 11:59Speaker 2: It's arc out and foggy. You better be wearing some
- 12:01Speaker 2: day glows, wearing appropriate attire.
- 12:04Speaker 3: You don't don't wear black, because that is those are
- 12:08Speaker 3: real tight quarters.
- 12:09Speaker 1: That is not a.
- 12:10Speaker 3: Bike lane size uh edge that you're you're driving on,
- 12:14Speaker 3: all right, and those are usually one later. So I'm
- 12:17Speaker 3: with I'm actually with Dustin.
- 12:18Speaker 1: On that one.
- 12:19Speaker 3: Take it into the neighborhood or go in do some
- 12:22Speaker 3: body weight squats on daylight today, especially one tonight this morning,
- 12:26Speaker 3: it was difficult seeing anything and everything. I almost caught
- 12:30Speaker 3: Bambi out here right before.
- 12:31Speaker 1: Yeah, right across the driveway.
- 12:35Speaker 3: I'm always on the lookout. There's one. There's gonna be
- 12:37Speaker 3: a couple. Yes, you better believe it. There's gonna be
- 12:39Speaker 3: another one coming.
- 12:40Speaker 1: So with Rogers though last year, I mean that playoff
- 12:44Speaker 1: was some playoff game that wasn't a playoff game.
- 12:46Speaker 2: When they beat uh, when they beat the Ravens, yes,
- 12:49Speaker 2: that was a that would have been a decent way
- 12:51Speaker 2: to end.
- 12:52Speaker 1: That was like found money we wanted, like.
- 12:56Speaker 2: I got in and that was like as good as
- 12:57Speaker 2: gonna get, battling one of the best guys, battling a
- 13:01Speaker 2: former MVP's showing that the old man could still do it,
- 13:03Speaker 2: pulling that game out in front of the crowd, home crowd.
- 13:06Speaker 2: And then the playoff didn't go their way. But whatever
- 13:08Speaker 2: that that would have been a pretty good punctuation. Can
- 13:10Speaker 2: he approach a game of that magnitude. Oh this year,
- 13:15Speaker 2: you know, will he have a moment this year regular
- 13:19Speaker 2: season or playoff that tops that? Because that was win
- 13:21Speaker 2: or go home, you know, big audience, national audience, riveting game,
- 13:26Speaker 2: dueling against an MVP.
- 13:27Speaker 3: The kiss to the blow, the kiss by Tomlin to
- 13:29Speaker 3: the to the camera at the end. I don't know
- 13:32Speaker 3: that he gets one to top and Drew that's a really,
- 13:33Speaker 3: really tough one to beat.
- 13:34Speaker 1: That's tough.
- 13:35Speaker 3: I mean, I would say though, I don't think that
- 13:36Speaker 3: division is all that great again, right like Baltimore, I'm
- 13:40Speaker 3: gonna have to see it to believe it, especially with
- 13:43Speaker 3: a new coach in there and in totally new reset.
- 13:46Speaker 3: That's a totally new reset, totally new culture. Yes, they
- 13:49Speaker 3: got pieces there. Lamar's in a contract conversation that hadn't
- 13:53Speaker 3: gone well the last time that he was there, and
- 13:55Speaker 3: Cincinnati that that sounds awesome, like it sounds great with
- 13:58Speaker 3: what their deal is. And again Dexter Lawrence, I again,
- 14:01Speaker 3: I'll have to see that to believe me. They're like
- 14:03Speaker 3: a plus five hundred dog to win the division. And
- 14:06Speaker 3: they were the same thing I had to Potawatami Sportsbook.
- 14:09Speaker 1: A year ago.
- 14:10Speaker 3: I like him again, but I don't like him Drew
- 14:14Speaker 3: once you get to the playoffs because I just don't
- 14:17Speaker 3: believe they have enough on offense to move the ball
- 14:21Speaker 3: significantly down the field against some of those defense you're
- 14:23Speaker 3: gonna face Like that Texans team was the worst matchup
- 14:25Speaker 3: possible that you could have had in that playoff game,
- 14:28Speaker 3: and the only guy that maybe played worse at the
- 14:30Speaker 3: quarterback spot was then Rogers was.
- 14:34Speaker 1: C J. Gave him a chance and they just couldn't
- 14:37Speaker 1: be able to do it. The last pass, I think
- 14:39Speaker 1: is a tough one.
- 14:40Speaker 3: Though his last pass being a pick six, he'll never admit.
- 14:44Speaker 1: It that had the stupid I would agree with you
- 14:46Speaker 1: that tying and the loose ends.
- 14:49Speaker 3: Together, that that's a good one. That's not a loose
- 14:51Speaker 3: end to tize like that thing into the ground before
- 14:53Speaker 3: you do that one. Although last pass as a packer.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Was a pick, good call, good call. Hey, we need
- 14:58Speaker 2: a current electric superhero of the day, brought to just
- 15:01Speaker 2: by call Current dot Com. Plenty of candidates. We can't
- 15:04Speaker 2: go with Luis reneatha no no no no no no
- 15:07Speaker 2: no no no no.
- 15:08Speaker 3: We will not be Actually, guys, you know who I'm
- 15:10Speaker 3: gonna give the superhero the day too, is somebody in
- 15:13Speaker 3: this world that where they're spreading so much hate, so
- 15:16Speaker 3: much negativity, well, so much disdain against everybody. Our Colone
- 15:20Speaker 3: Electric Superhero the Day is Michigan head football coach Kyle Whittingham.
- 15:25Speaker 1: All right, see, did you guys see this over the weekend?
- 15:27Speaker 1: I don't think I did.
- 15:28Speaker 3: Coach Whittingham was asked about his disdain and hatred. If
- 15:34Speaker 3: he has hate in his heart for Ryan Day. Kyle
- 15:42Speaker 3: Whittingham is a grandfather of eleven children. He is not
- 15:46Speaker 3: a man that comes from Utah that has any kind
- 15:50Speaker 3: of hate in his heart for anybody. I don't hate
- 15:54Speaker 3: Ryan Day, he said, I gotta be hating somebody.
- 15:57Speaker 1: That I've never met before. He wants to hang one
- 16:00Speaker 1: hundred on him, no doubt about it. Wants to win.
- 16:02Speaker 3: But Kyle Whittingham said Monday after his camp availability, you
- 16:06Speaker 3: have a better chance to win if I hated them.
- 16:09Speaker 3: I just don't understand that. I don't have time for that.
- 16:13Speaker 3: Kyle Whittingham doesn't have hate in his heart. Whatever gives
- 16:15Speaker 3: us the best chance to win, I'm all for and
- 16:16Speaker 3: I want to beat him worse than anybody around. I
- 16:19Speaker 3: don't know how it became such a hot topic. But
- 16:21Speaker 3: I don't hate anybody, you.
- 16:23Speaker 1: Know, you know why that's we need more in the world.
- 16:26Speaker 3: Let's go, Kyle Winningham, what what congatulations? That's a big
- 16:29Speaker 3: human right there to do that. I don't know how
- 16:32Speaker 3: your Michigan boosters are gonna like, you know, I don't
- 16:35Speaker 3: know exactly how it's gonna sit with a coming in
- 16:39Speaker 3: because everybody that now hired Kyle Whittingham Ward Manual gont
- 16:43Speaker 3: be done at the end of the year.
- 16:47Speaker 1: That kind of feeling.
- 16:49Speaker 2: I will say this as great as and as uh
- 16:52Speaker 2: as heated as the Michigan Ohio state rivalry is, I
- 16:56Speaker 2: think you know the Utah b y You rivalry, that
- 17:00Speaker 2: holy war is some yes, okay, is just about his
- 17:05Speaker 2: venomous and in some circles even worse.
- 17:07Speaker 3: I was gonna say, if not more true, Yes, that is.
- 17:10Speaker 3: That is one of the learned from theest ones, the
- 17:13Speaker 3: Christovac family. My friend Jan and yes, he told me
- 17:16Speaker 3: like it is. She told me tales. It was ugly.
- 17:19Speaker 1: That is a different, different level.
- 17:23Speaker 2: The b y U Utah rivalry is legit, he said.
- 17:27Speaker 2: A lot of juice nationally, people not like the destination
- 17:30Speaker 2: viewing game. But in Utah, in Salt Lake, around in Provo. Yeah,
- 17:35Speaker 2: they call it the Holy War for a reason, big time.
- 17:38Speaker 2: It's it is that is a war. So he's this
- 17:43Speaker 2: isn't like a new thing, right have you've seen it?
- 17:45Speaker 2: He knows what he knows what it is, knows what
- 17:47Speaker 2: it is with the impact on the boosters.
- 17:49Speaker 1: And I'm supposed to hate this man, I supposed to
- 17:53Speaker 1: hate this guy. I can't hate them like that. I
- 17:55Speaker 1: can't hate him like it want that's kind of I
- 17:58Speaker 1: can't hate him. I was refreshing.
- 18:00Speaker 3: Kyle Winningham fresh and he's also a cat that drove
- 18:02Speaker 3: up on the MacFee Show a couple of years ago
- 18:05Speaker 3: on a Harley h after doing like double black diamond skiing.
- 18:09Speaker 3: He's a badass, is Kyle Whittingham, and good good alternative
- 18:14Speaker 3: there in Michigan. So he's our superhero the day we
- 18:16Speaker 3: need we need less hate, although I do like hate
- 18:18Speaker 3: in sports. So Kyle Winningham, you can you can say
- 18:21Speaker 3: the word, but only if it feels right. Love it,
- 18:24Speaker 3: love it.
- 18:24Speaker 1: Being true to himself.
- 18:25Speaker 2: Man call current dot com superheroes on the side of
- 18:28Speaker 2: the Vans, heroes working in the Vans.
- 18:31Speaker 1: They'll take care of you.
- 18:31Speaker 2: We were talking about the importance of a generator with
- 18:33Speaker 2: all those people losing power with the storms that we have.
- 18:35Speaker 2: We don't have normal storms anymore. We have crippling, devastating
- 18:38Speaker 2: storms that believe people without power.
- 18:40Speaker 1: Seems like every day they're showing.
- 18:42Speaker 3: The showers and how they pronounce it down there south
- 18:44Speaker 3: of the border, a.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Little showing it and they're showing, like you know, how
- 18:47Speaker 2: many people are without power. Get a generator if you can,
- 18:50Speaker 2: if you have the means, check it out.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Home standby generator, full year of monitoring with a purchase
- 18:54Speaker 3: in August. It is the time to do it because
- 18:57Speaker 3: those summer storms they might be getting close to the end.
- 19:00Speaker 3: They come back all the way around Drew in March,
- 19:03Speaker 3: and they don't want to be uh, don't want to
- 19:04Speaker 3: be left out.
- 19:04Speaker 1: In the cold big time.
- 19:06Speaker 3: Absolutely, Hey, really quick, for really quick here for me.
- 19:09Speaker 3: Twenty five years ago, Uh, yesterday American Pie two hit theaters.
- 19:14Speaker 1: How about it? Oh my oh man, that was an
- 19:16Speaker 1: aniversary officially old.
- 19:17Speaker 3: That hit't be hard yesterday, But Mike, thanks for that
- 19:20Speaker 3: twenty five years ago yesterday.
- 19:22Speaker 1: Well, I'm just stay in history of what.
- 19:24Speaker 3: Yes, I didn't see it until I didn't see it
- 19:26Speaker 3: till yeah, William, all right.
- 19:29Speaker 1: That's the way they all go.
- 19:30Speaker 2: Yes, that's too funny, you're in the HTEL Fox Sports
- 19:33Speaker 2: Radio was cos Hey Ray May Ray the matchup the
- 19:40Speaker 2: two pictures that I definitely wanted the Birds to get. No,
- 19:42Speaker 2: I want well, we all wanted tear School, no doubt
- 19:45Speaker 2: about it. Didn't want him losing Logan Henderson in company,
- 19:48Speaker 2: But uh, this one in particular, I really liked Robbie
- 19:51Speaker 2: Ray because it felt like he was just gonna be
- 19:53Speaker 2: money in a low level prospect. Drew to get him
- 19:55Speaker 2: and pay the cash. Dustin May didn't.
- 19:56Speaker 3: Realize he was available really until the day of the deadline.
- 19:59Speaker 3: U it flashed up as one of the possibilities and
- 20:01Speaker 3: they grabbed him. They go up against each other, and
- 20:05Speaker 3: not that they'll like be long time compared to each other,
- 20:07Speaker 3: but for the next five or six weeks we will,
- 20:09Speaker 3: right Like, for the next five to six weeks, we'll
- 20:11Speaker 3: look at the guys that went at the deadline, who
- 20:13Speaker 3: you could have had, who you didn't decide to go get,
- 20:15Speaker 3: and what would have been the best one. May was
- 20:18Speaker 3: good in his first start, but like Kyle Harrison's Home
- 20:22Speaker 3: and Road splits haven't been great all year long. Dust
- 20:25Speaker 3: and Maze have been potentially worse. So we'll see if
- 20:27Speaker 3: that changes with the new club coming up tonight. You
- 20:29Speaker 3: will see we did have a hot take concerning the
- 20:32Speaker 3: Brewers from six to eight. It looks like twenty two
- 20:35Speaker 3: when the Brewers had Woodruff, Burns, Peralta all pitching well
- 20:39Speaker 3: with the quote Wizard Ozzie Timmins as hitting coach. It
- 20:42Speaker 3: seems that seemed a little bit sarcastic and they couldn't
- 20:46Speaker 3: hit a lick in the playoffs.
- 20:47Speaker 1: That's bill for Madison. Sorry, he did sign that bill
- 20:49Speaker 1: for Madison.
- 20:50Speaker 3: Worried about our offense come playoff time with the good pitching, however, Yeah,
- 20:55Speaker 3: I mean I the offense you know, is slumping from
- 20:58Speaker 3: their big bats right now. Does that mean they're destined
- 21:01Speaker 3: to have this problem in the playoff?
- 21:02Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 21:03Speaker 3: We talk a lot about power in the playoffs playing
- 21:05Speaker 3: the Brewers don't hit for a lot of home runs.
- 21:07Speaker 3: Maybe maybe we'll have that issue again. Twenty twenty two
- 21:10Speaker 3: team to make the playoffs. That was the team that
- 21:12Speaker 3: that yeah, because well it was twenty two would have
- 21:15Speaker 3: been the team though that ended up sliding down the
- 21:17Speaker 3: back of the dinosaur. Because he's right, you did have
- 21:19Speaker 3: the guys pitching very well, but that was the team
- 21:21Speaker 3: that wasn't able to rebound from the trade deadline disappointment
- 21:25Speaker 3: of trading Josh Hater and and that was a team
- 21:28Speaker 3: that that was uh they did. They had Burns rolling
- 21:31Speaker 3: in top ten and cy young Wood he was a
- 21:34Speaker 3: three to zero five era in his thirty starts that
- 21:37Speaker 3: he ended up making almost one hundred and fifty innings.
- 21:39Speaker 3: That they were pretty dang good that year and just
- 21:42Speaker 3: weren't able to get past the frustration in the locker room.
- 21:45Speaker 1: I don't see that being the problem.
- 21:47Speaker 3: I see them being maybe potentially running out of some gas.
- 21:51Speaker 3: One of this is also getting chased down like there is.
- 21:53Speaker 3: You do have to give some credit on the other side. Absolutely,
- 21:56Speaker 3: the Cubs are rolling at a tough, are really really
- 22:00Speaker 3: ridiculous pace. Yeah, and they're maybe being paced by the
- 22:05Speaker 3: m v P. So like you're you're doing what you
- 22:07Speaker 3: can to hold them off, but you're doing it with
- 22:09Speaker 3: now Bryce terrang with a spring thumb like they are really.
- 22:13Speaker 2: The arm yesterday on a follow through on a lob.
- 22:17Speaker 1: Maybe it'll wake the area up a little bit.
- 22:19Speaker 3: You mentioned Pat Strung is now the lone betting favorite
- 22:23Speaker 3: at Patlami Sportsbook to win n L MVP at minus
- 22:26Speaker 3: one three four.
- 22:27Speaker 1: It seems like it, and especially because not.
- 22:30Speaker 3: Pitching again not pitching, and he's been made up a
- 22:32Speaker 3: little bit, but that's part of it. It's always seems
- 22:35Speaker 3: to be the old tiny taking place to war, but
- 22:37Speaker 3: maybe not this year. So it seems like it's gonna happen.
- 22:40Speaker 3: His voters vote on analytics, not a lot. The war's crazy.
- 22:44Speaker 3: What he's been doing is you know, I think kind
- 22:46Speaker 3: of people remember the couple of flubs he had earlier
- 22:51Speaker 3: in the year, the outfield flubs. But he's been incredible
- 22:54Speaker 3: and the Brewers were like a minus nine hundred betting
- 22:57Speaker 3: favorite at the beginning of the month or into July
- 23:00Speaker 3: to win the division.
- 23:01Speaker 1: They're now minus three thirty five. Yeah good.
- 23:03Speaker 3: And the Cubs are at plus two twenty five. They
- 23:05Speaker 3: were close to almost nine to one earlier on in
- 23:09Speaker 3: the summer. It's getting tight and this is this is
- 23:11Speaker 3: a race. Where as much as the moves that they
- 23:14Speaker 3: did or didn't make it the deadline of war for
- 23:16Speaker 3: October drew. We've been cautioning folks, this is also for
- 23:19Speaker 3: the end of the year. And it's uh, I don't
- 23:21Speaker 3: know that we planned on it getting this testy this quick,
- 23:25Speaker 3: with how many injuries they've had.
- 23:26Speaker 1: But you knew that it was gonna be it was
- 23:28Speaker 1: gonna be a race.
- 23:29Speaker 2: I didn't have August twelveth circle as the day people
- 23:32Speaker 2: would start bitching about the brus hitting coaches.
- 23:35Speaker 1: No, it didn't know that was gonna be the plan. Well,
- 23:37Speaker 1: I think it's it. I thought it would still be yelly.
- 23:40Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, I think it's it's an indication that they've
- 23:43Speaker 3: been successful very long this year that it took this long,
- 23:45Speaker 3: because it seems to happen every summer at some point
- 23:48Speaker 3: when you have your inevitable offensive slump. And the Brewers
- 23:50Speaker 3: have been so good this year that it took this
- 23:52Speaker 3: loan to do it. So maybe that was the other thing.
- 23:54Speaker 3: But hey, if you believe in your team, if you
- 23:56Speaker 3: believe in the Brewers, if you're not an e or,
- 23:58Speaker 3: this is probably one of the best times to get
- 23:59Speaker 3: back though, if you want to bet it right, I mean,
- 24:02Speaker 3: if you did, the number is lower than.
- 24:03Speaker 1: It's been so very much. You know, it'll look at
- 24:06Speaker 1: that way too.
- 24:06Speaker 3: Things to watch with the Brewers though Terrang the thumb
- 24:10Speaker 3: watch that is a big one.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Ortie is going to get back or is he?
- 24:13Speaker 2: Does he need to go on the I l what
- 24:15Speaker 2: happens with Bryce Wilson today they sent option out.
- 24:18Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I think he's gonna get DFA
- 24:20Speaker 3: for the second time in a week.
- 24:21Speaker 1: Kind of crazy. What his situation has been free is
- 24:24Speaker 1: any closer to getting back?
- 24:26Speaker 2: Well we heard mid August. It's mid August, Like, I
- 24:28Speaker 2: don't get it. He was going to go on a
- 24:29Speaker 2: rehab and they said it was going to be a rehab.
- 24:31Speaker 1: For a while.
- 24:33Speaker 3: Yeah, they just banged up and and the injuries are
- 24:35Speaker 3: mounting in it and it has a toll. It takes
- 24:37Speaker 3: a toll. It's funny to think about where saying when
- 24:40Speaker 3: this art is going to get back? People for most
- 24:42Speaker 3: of the summer wanted to model lil tend Yeah, I
- 24:44Speaker 3: would have been okay with you.
- 24:45Speaker 2: Didn't realize how much they would miss it. Like Cooper
- 24:47Speaker 2: Pratt that was hitting, he was playing solid.
- 24:50Speaker 3: D playing really really good dry to keep rowing the
- 24:52Speaker 3: ball right.
- 24:53Speaker 2: The trickle down of not having Ortiz and Pratt and
- 24:56Speaker 2: having to play Terrang at short for the first time
- 24:57Speaker 2: in three years, and having to play you know who
- 25:00Speaker 2: they just got here.
- 25:01Speaker 1: And just got off right just then.
- 25:04Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's just it's bizarre putting Vaughan at third
- 25:08Speaker 2: like there, it's spitting duct tape right now. And oh,
- 25:11Speaker 2: by the way, you're playing two of the hottest teams, like,
- 25:13Speaker 2: are two of the best teams in the league in
- 25:15Speaker 2: the West at the end of a seventeen the game
- 25:18Speaker 2: in seventeen day grind.
- 25:20Speaker 3: It is a grind that you're in storm this is
- 25:22Speaker 3: That's the other part where as I'm eyeballing that series.
- 25:26Speaker 3: The seven games and ten days that you're gonna play
- 25:28Speaker 3: against the Cubs, which might be the NL Central Division
- 25:30Speaker 3: series right like that basically feels.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Like it will be.
- 25:35Speaker 3: You're gonna be running at the end of a long
- 25:37Speaker 3: run as well, because they'll get an off day coming
- 25:40Speaker 3: up on Monday, but they're few and far between, and
- 25:42Speaker 3: they're gonna play the five games at home, they'll play
- 25:46Speaker 3: the Sunday night in Atlanta. They'll get one more off
- 25:49Speaker 3: day there before they go to New York. But then
- 25:51Speaker 3: they're rolling from the Mets series through Texas right into
- 25:54Speaker 3: the Cubs and you're playing every day from August twenty
- 25:58Speaker 3: fifth through September ninth. Yeah, that's a that's a girthy
- 26:05Speaker 3: stretch of games for a team that is right now
- 26:08Speaker 3: reeling in terms of health and the middle of the Cubs,
- 26:10Speaker 3: right and right well, and it ends with the Cubs
- 26:12Speaker 3: there on September ninth. So you you play two series,
- 26:15Speaker 3: you played six games and six days, and then you
- 26:18Speaker 3: start the ten games in ten days, with seven of
- 26:20Speaker 3: those against Chicago First Cubs.
- 26:23Speaker 2: The first four games are at Wrigley at night, all
- 26:26Speaker 2: four at night.
- 26:27Speaker 1: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday at night, and September third. Keep
- 26:31Speaker 1: put that in your calendar. It's an earlier start at night,
- 26:33Speaker 1: and it's also on Big Fox.
- 26:34Speaker 3: There you go.
- 26:35Speaker 2: And then Monday, Tuesday Wednesday in Milwaukee, right, so yes,
- 26:39Speaker 2: and the Monday Labor Day the one to ten first pitch.
- 26:41Speaker 1: So if you thinwo day games, yeah, because it'll be
- 26:44Speaker 1: a Wednesday day game too, right, Wednesday is a night game,
- 26:46Speaker 1: it is, Yeah, Wednesday is a night game.
- 26:47Speaker 3: I would have thought it would have been a day
- 26:49Speaker 3: game too, because the opening night in the NFL season.
- 26:51Speaker 3: But uh, there's a a high, high possibility that that
- 26:57Speaker 3: September seventh game, that Monday Labor Day against Day against
- 27:00Speaker 3: the Cubs. Might be the heaviest Cubs crowd at American
- 27:03Speaker 3: Family Field. That'll be interesting, right, I mean, think about
- 27:06Speaker 3: that rolling back from the one last stop at the
- 27:09Speaker 3: Lake House up up.
- 27:10Speaker 1: In the way back.
- 27:12Speaker 2: Over to Northbrook County, or it'll feel shutting down in
- 27:18Speaker 2: Lake Geneva's for sure.
- 27:20Speaker 1: Amazingly, that's a great point. It's gonna be like that.
- 27:24Speaker 1: That's gonna be miserable. That's gonna be an It's gonna
- 27:27Speaker 1: be a miserable one.
- 27:28Speaker 3: So let's just find a way to line up a
- 27:30Speaker 3: misstart for that day to shut all the Schwarber Jersey
- 27:33Speaker 3: wears U up there into the into the four hundreds.
- 27:37Speaker 3: Buddy and Kenosha by the way, not for mby with
- 27:39Speaker 3: Dustin and uh just Dustin was complaining about the runners.
- 27:44Speaker 1: I had to get this in. I'm sorry.
- 27:46Speaker 3: Uh Dustin was complaining about the selfish blanks that the
- 27:50Speaker 3: hell freaks running on Connie Roads and how he doesn't like.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Them, and Buddy and Kenosha.
- 27:55Speaker 3: Hey, fat Dustin, it's a marathon season, but your chunky
- 27:59Speaker 3: ass wouldn't know that. Nothing worse than people don't take
- 28:02Speaker 3: their health seriously and stain our healthcare system buddy Bell
- 28:05Speaker 3: Brooks size ten. Now listen, we don't want you. We
- 28:09Speaker 3: were one big, happy family. I don't want anyone calling him.
- 28:12Speaker 3: You know, he's the reason for the health problem. But
- 28:15Speaker 3: when he threw in the size for the brooks sneakers,
- 28:18Speaker 3: he's got Billy. You know, I'm a Brooks guy. So
- 28:20Speaker 3: that was that was funny. What are you Brooks size time?
- 28:23Speaker 1: No? No, I got these big clown feet. I'm eleven
- 28:25Speaker 1: and a half.
- 28:26Speaker 3: Whoa, why look at you?
- 28:30Speaker 1: Love it? So five eight? But that's kind of ridiculous.
- 28:34Speaker 2: I have less problem with runners of all stripes than
- 28:37Speaker 2: most bicyclists.
- 28:39Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought this was gonna.
- 28:40Speaker 2: Be an after the cycling thing. Man, they're entitled and
- 28:43Speaker 2: they are hyper sensitive. I get it because you got
- 28:46Speaker 2: to have your head on a swivel and they get pissed.
- 28:47Speaker 1: Yeah. You can pull me a lot with that group
- 28:49Speaker 1: a little.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Bit, and they're hard to see sometimes when you're making
- 28:52Speaker 2: a turn and they come out of nowhere, it's like, oh,
- 28:54Speaker 2: they also get mad when you're trying to pass them. Sorry, buddy,
- 28:56Speaker 2: I know you think you're Lance Armstrong on that thing,
- 28:59Speaker 2: but you're not.
- 29:00Speaker 1: One is fast.
- 29:01Speaker 2: You're not going as fast as my Santa fe all right,
- 29:03Speaker 2: one for you though. The scooter crowd too, Oh, I
- 29:06Speaker 2: can't stand the scooter crowds on the sidewalks. Oh man,
- 29:08Speaker 2: my wife will like those guys off the sidewalk with
- 29:11Speaker 2: the scooters, Like we've seen it, people getting injured and stuff.
- 29:13Speaker 1: We're not supposed to ride them on the sidewalks. Well
- 29:15Speaker 1: I was.
- 29:16Speaker 2: I was parked on the street the other day and
- 29:18Speaker 2: about to fling my door open and two guys came
- 29:21Speaker 2: by on scooters and damn near this like cartoonishly hit
- 29:25Speaker 2: by a door. I saw them at the last minute,
- 29:27Speaker 2: and I'm like, well, these dudes. First of all, they
- 29:29Speaker 2: could have been more in the center of the road
- 29:30Speaker 2: than right on the car lane, Like what do you expect,
- 29:33Speaker 2: Like some of these doors are going to open, Like,
- 29:35Speaker 2: but oh man, that could have been serious, serious tragedy.
- 29:39Speaker 3: Well you got that full when you got that full

- 33:20Speaker 3: I've had more uh encounters in Near Missus with bicyclists
- 33:24Speaker 3: than joggers.
- 33:25Speaker 1: Yeah, Josh, and the balls is right. Runners aren't bad. Bikers,
- 33:27Speaker 1: especially the one in Spandex, are among the worst. I
- 33:32Speaker 1: got it fair.
- 33:32Speaker 2: I mean, I gotta plot anybody who's trying to get fit,
- 33:35Speaker 2: I applaud. But if you're committing to the bit and
- 33:37Speaker 2: you're a little roly poly wearing that tight Asspandex and
- 33:41Speaker 2: biking around respect.
- 33:43Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's legit confidence. That's that's confidence that's not manufactured.
- 33:48Speaker 3: You got to be having that. Uh. Tommy said, I
- 33:51Speaker 3: love that they added bike lanes but didn't widen any
- 33:53Speaker 3: of the streets.
- 33:54Speaker 2: Just a yeah, there's a there's a left turn by
- 33:57Speaker 2: my house that's become much more difficult of a bike
- 34:00Speaker 2: laying in a little.
- 34:02Speaker 3: But then they had to reconstruct everything and charge you
- 34:05Speaker 3: more money in Texas. So what take your pick guys.
- 34:07Speaker 3: I mean, you know it's not any fun either. I
- 34:10Speaker 3: remember like fifteen or twenty years ago when they put
- 34:13Speaker 3: uh sidewalks in the Edgerton one of the main streets
- 34:16Speaker 3: by and it was like shut down for a couple
- 34:18Speaker 3: of years. What happened, So you got it. It is
- 34:20Speaker 3: what it is. You have to take your inconvenience. In
- 34:23Speaker 3: my neighborhood growing up, there was one uh one individual
- 34:26Speaker 3: that would ride his bike around the because it was
- 34:29Speaker 3: a clean circle of a neighborhood, right, So he'd whip
- 34:32Speaker 3: it around that.
- 34:33Speaker 1: Oval like it was the Daytona. He was stripped.
- 34:36Speaker 3: The man would be out there for hours, taking laps
- 34:40Speaker 3: the exact same lap. My dad would be so furious
- 34:45Speaker 3: every time. You could swear that every time he's backing up,
- 34:49Speaker 3: that bike is coming right down here, and it would
- 34:52Speaker 3: just be like setting it on a clock and knowing
- 34:54Speaker 3: that he would walk in and get off frust.
- 35:00Speaker 2: Time to waken bank with our palace from Happy Place Hemp.

- 35:18Speaker 3: So I did have to confirm that it was not
- 35:21Speaker 3: the fifty milligram gummy that led me to this story.
- 35:26Speaker 3: High school football player practice is with a snake in
- 35:29Speaker 3: his helmet for an hour.
- 35:31Speaker 1: I saw this.
- 35:31Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, you dog, you get me on. I'm
- 35:35Speaker 3: burning the whole thing down After that, one hey, high
- 35:37Speaker 3: school football player in the state of Arkansas Mollowme, Arkansas,
- 35:43Speaker 3: to be exact, had every right to be rattled after
- 35:48Speaker 3: finding a venomous snake in his helmet during practice. The
- 35:52Speaker 3: student felt an unusual movement inside his head gear following
- 35:55Speaker 3: warm ups last week, brought his helmet to an assistant
- 35:58Speaker 3: coach for inspection. Hey coach, could you put some more
- 36:00Speaker 3: air in this thing? Like it keeps rattling. I don't
- 36:02Speaker 3: know exactly what it is.
- 36:03Speaker 1: A slithering.
- 36:08Speaker 3: Two foot whoa cotton mouthed snake was discovered behind some patting.
- 36:14Speaker 3: The pit viper was so reluctant to exit the helmet
- 36:17Speaker 3: that the police officers had to pour water into it
- 36:20Speaker 3: to force the snake out and into a bag. Animal
- 36:23Speaker 3: Services then arrived a few minutes later, identified the snake
- 36:26Speaker 3: as a.
- 36:27Speaker 1: Deadly cotton mouth.
- 36:29Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not a good and took it to a
- 36:30Speaker 3: wooden wooded area away from the school.
- 36:33Speaker 1: Oh that's good. Took it to the wetten mouth.
- 36:35Speaker 3: So the second most venomous snakes found in Arkansas. Chris Davis,
- 36:39Speaker 3: Animal Services director said the player that wore the helmet
- 36:42Speaker 3: for nearly an hour.
- 36:43Speaker 1: Was fortunate he wasn't bitten. No kidding, Chris. Can you
- 36:46Speaker 1: imagine that and it would have been in your head?
- 36:49Speaker 3: Can you imagine that cotton mouth isn't one of the
- 36:51Speaker 3: snakes they bring around to the kids to un petting day,
- 36:55Speaker 3: petting zoo day at the zoo.
- 36:56Speaker 1: He said, it was unreal.
- 36:58Speaker 3: You kind of had to be there pictures to say
- 37:01Speaker 3: this was real.
- 37:02Speaker 1: How does it fit in the helmet underneath pats? It's
- 37:04Speaker 1: two feet long.
- 37:06Speaker 3: I know snakes can do their little thing where they
- 37:08Speaker 3: slither and they cod and the Yeah, I mean there's
- 37:10Speaker 3: little nooks and crannies of a helmet that you're gonna
- 37:12Speaker 3: be in there. But uh, maybe this young man should
- 37:16Speaker 3: have been the superhero of the day, because what did
- 37:18Speaker 3: he do?
- 37:19Speaker 1: Kept playing?
- 37:20Speaker 3: I'm trying to make the team. Yeah, grab a different
- 37:22Speaker 3: helmet and continue to practice. But the situation caused the
- 37:24Speaker 3: head coach to reiterate to the team that players should
- 37:28Speaker 3: examine their equipment carefully before using it daily, checking for insects.
- 37:35Speaker 1: Maybe something larger and more data.
- 37:37Speaker 3: Yeah right, yeah, right, that that's nightmare field man, and like, yeah,
- 37:40Speaker 3: like kids, they just be like anyone's gonna think there's
- 37:42Speaker 3: gonna be a.
- 37:42Speaker 1: Snake in your helmets.
- 37:44Speaker 3: I read the headline, went like, wait a second, that's
- 37:47Speaker 3: why I played tennis.
- 37:48Speaker 1: No, wow, not buying it. Not buying You can't get it.
- 37:53Speaker 1: You can't hide in a tennis rackets.
- 37:56Speaker 3: Actually they probably could, Like they could slither around the
- 37:58Speaker 3: handle and you don't realize, Oh that a.
- 38:01Speaker 1: Cotton mouth viper.
- 38:03Speaker 3: I mean that, you're right, that is one of the
- 38:05Speaker 3: my goodness, are you kidding me? Right?
- 38:07Speaker 1: Messing around.
- 38:08Speaker 3: The pictures are insane, Like they have pictures of him
- 38:11Speaker 3: weaved in between the helmet. They have a picture of
- 38:13Speaker 3: the helmet submerged in the water trying to like get
- 38:16Speaker 3: it out, and the snake just slitherering oh man, Wow.
- 38:21Speaker 3: The snakes freaked me out, man. And maybe that's because
- 38:23Speaker 3: we didn't grow up with a lot of them around here.
- 38:25Speaker 3: I know there are some Wisconsin, but not I just
- 38:27Speaker 3: don't remember coming across them.
- 38:29Speaker 1: But they freaked me out. They just do. I'm sorry.
- 38:31Speaker 3: The main time I remember seeing snakes is when I
- 38:33Speaker 3: drive down. You drive down near the lakefront on like
- 38:37Speaker 3: the July third fireworks, and you'd always see a couple
- 38:39Speaker 3: of cats taking pictures with folks walking around with the
- 38:42Speaker 3: biggest snake you've ever seen in your entire life, just
- 38:45Speaker 3: trying to get picture three bucks this thing on your neck.
- 38:48Speaker 3: My daughter is definitely afraid of snakes. Oh oh, they're scary, bro.
- 38:51Speaker 3: Don't let her see the story. Don't let her see
- 38:53Speaker 3: that unless she's trying off for a football team.
