  Speaker 5: got a cup.
• 2:53
  Speaker 8: I don't know where the full hot take comes in here,
• 2:56
  Speaker 8: but our friend supper club Mark, who's been texting us
• 2:58
  Speaker 8: for a long time, said Cooper. And as the time
• 3:01
  Speaker 8: for the time are the future the time, ask Hunter
• 3:06
  Speaker 8: his opinion. We will definitely ask Hunter's opinion when he
• 3:09
  Speaker 8: joins us coming up tomorrow. If he believes I believe
• 3:11
  Speaker 8: he very much as well. Mark believes Cooper, Pratt, and
• 3:14
  Speaker 8: Hayesus Moday are going to be the future in a
• 3:18
  Speaker 8: Brewers infield.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 3:19
  Speaker 8: I don't know where we think if it's gonna be
• 3:21
  Speaker 8: the left side of the infield, if it's going to
• 3:24
  Speaker 8: be up the middle of the infield.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: But there's that is no none of them could play
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: second or third. Yeah, one on play second or third.
• 3:31
  Speaker 8: The tough thing is man Andrew Fisher is just finding
• 3:33
  Speaker 8: a way to continually make sure that you're crow barring
• 3:35
  Speaker 8: him in for the next couple of years into that future.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Right, Good to have more, yeah, yeah, because you don't
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: know what's gonna stick at the major league level, so
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: it's great to have those multiple guys that are great prospects.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's necessarily a hot take, though, but
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: I think it's a good take and an exciting one.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: That Cooper and Jesus are probably part of the future
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: is the hot take.
• 3:53
  Speaker 8: The fact that I have never seen a fan base
• 3:56
  Speaker 8: more excited with the players that are not on the
• 3:59
  Speaker 8: field for one that is currently in first place.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: That is a good point. I think the last part,
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: Billy is the key there. Of course, you're gonna be
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: excited for upcoming prospects when your team is uh, you.
• 4:11
  Speaker 8: Know, so when Jim Powell has to tell you more
• 4:13
  Speaker 8: about the Huntsville Stars than the stars that are on
• 4:15
  Speaker 8: the field.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: For you down down on the Farm report, I totally agree.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, I have Brewers fans become so used to winning,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: so you know that that winning to an incredible clip
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: in May, June, July is so unremarkable. Have we become
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: so ent sport used to it? I want to be
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: careful what I what I call Brewers fans that it's
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: just old hat like they're like, hey, yeah, whatever, we're
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: winning games every day, that's great, but what about the
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: next guy is coming up? It's like a kid that's
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: excited about the other present behind the tree when they
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: already open for them in front of you. It's like,
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: we do have a really good team here. Uh, they
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: are winning a lot of games. We are in first place,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: we are looking good. But you're right, Billy, maybe it's
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: a testament to a couple things. A the fact that
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: we haven't gotten over the hump in the playoffs. That's
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: always gonna be the big thing always, and b how
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: exciting it is to look at the guy the thing
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: you don't have yet, and the thing you want, even
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: though you have a whole shoe box full of shoes,
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: there's one more shoe there in.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: The speaking of shoes in the shoe store that you want,
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: that's our shoe or one more pair of shoe a
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: pair of shoes, right, Ye, really a good point. But listen,
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: I'm glad to run our organization.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: I'm glad to run our roster because if we can
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: build this type of juggernaut, I'm not mad about it.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: Juggernaut. How many g's and juggernaut, that's the question you
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: want to be asking. I'm wearing my Iron Jock hoodie today,
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: and Iron Jock has a great bundle for Father's Day.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: Polly Hanson always has great deals. But the bundles for

  Speaker 8: Yeah, and it's not a hot take to say that
• 6:00
  Speaker 8: that's going to be one of the best Father's Day
• 6:01
  Speaker 8: gifts you ever give your dad.
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: No doubt, Hey, he is going to be thankful for it.
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: He's going to be excited for it.
• 6:05
  Speaker 8: And it's one of those that as I'm starting to do, Drew,
• 6:10
  Speaker 8: what I've been telling you I was going to do
• 6:11
  Speaker 8: for the last two months, which was go through the
• 6:13
  Speaker 8: closet and start combing out the things that we haven't
• 6:15
  Speaker 8: worn in a long time and try to empty that
• 6:17
  Speaker 8: bad boy out. You realize you remember when somebody wears
• 6:22
  Speaker 8: what you got, right, Like, oh sweet, I remember.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: Mom got me this ad and I'm putting this one on.
• 6:27
  Speaker 8: Then you realize, like, oh sweet, dad's wearing the under
• 6:30
  Speaker 8: iron jock stuff I got him for the eighteenth time
• 6:32
  Speaker 8: I've seen him in the last twenty one. That's a
• 6:34
  Speaker 8: good hit percentage. And you're gonna see that stuff because
• 6:36
  Speaker 8: you're gonna continually throw it on. You like having that
• 6:39
  Speaker 8: satisfaction when you're giving the gifts.

• 7:39
  Speaker 5: hot teke comp day. We haven't had enough hot takes
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: or discussion it about the Packers. Josh Jacobs didn't speak
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: to the reporters yesterday. Players did, they didn't, but Josh
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: Jacobs practice was not available. Obviously, some players talked about it.
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: Jordan Love did, what's the story take Josh Jacobs's situation
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: and uncertainty out of the equation? What's the story of
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: Packers OTAs now?
• 8:00
  Speaker 8: Well, I, once we get to camp, I can start
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: talking about the offensive line, because that's really I think
• 8:05
  Speaker 8: the biggest thing hindering where the team goes in twenty
• 8:09
  Speaker 8: twenty six. But right now, Drew, I would say my
• 8:11
  Speaker 8: biggest story in question mark and the things that I
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: want to know are how much is Matthew Golden finding
• 8:17
  Speaker 8: his way into the equation? And what could you possibly
• 8:20
  Speaker 8: be getting from Savion Williams, because it sounds like early
• 8:22
  Speaker 8: reports are indicating you're looking at the third round pick
• 8:26
  Speaker 8: from a year ago more into the wide receiver camp.
• 8:29
  Speaker 8: And when Tavian Wicks gets pulled out, Romeo Dobbs gets
• 8:33
  Speaker 8: pulled out, we instituted Matthew Golden. Savian Williams is gonna
• 8:37
  Speaker 8: have to be in a put up her shut up
• 8:38
  Speaker 8: time because the third round pick's going to get some opportunities.
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: Bau Meltain's getting and entering the chat as well, because
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: bou Melton now no longer cornerback back to being a
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: wide receiver and they love that. Ye yeah. And he
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: got a lot of burn last year even with ahead
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: of some of the other guys targets and stuff, when
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: we had a scratch on our heads. Why are they
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: throwing a golden what bow Meltin getting.
• 8:55
  Speaker 8: Bow Meltin's here on third down again, He's getting the
• 8:58
  Speaker 8: target here in the late stage of a game.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: Ye yeah. The story the way they love bull Melton.
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: The other story from yesterday, tray Smack missed a bunch
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: of kikes that right after they cut McManus. He was
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: five of nine on field goals and two really apparently
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: really bad pulls to the.
• 9:11
  Speaker 8: Left, which is good. We got to get all of those.
• 9:14
  Speaker 8: You gotta get all those bad swings out now. That's
• 9:16
  Speaker 8: why uh tray Smack good, big time lacrosse player.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: If I remember correctly that I've heard.
• 9:23
  Speaker 8: So, that means he's probably got a sweet golf swing.
• 9:26
  Speaker 8: I don't go to the range before I go and
• 9:27
  Speaker 8: play right, because I only have a certain amount of
• 9:30
  Speaker 8: good swings in me.
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: I can't waste him here.
• 9:32
  Speaker 8: He's got a certain amount of bad swings in him
• 9:34
  Speaker 8: that he's got to get out before the season.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: Kick all of those sons of guns left right now? Yeah,
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: and and listen, why not get it done? And it
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: wouldn't be a summer. It wouldn't be right for Packers fans,
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: and they didn't have a summer about being nervous about
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: a kicker. It just wouldn't be right. True that being said,
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: I believe Tray Smack will be fine. I think he'll
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: be a good kicker for us. But there is a
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: little buyerber ware and perilous, you know, caution, because you
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: never know when you drafted a kicker up they'll be good.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: The Packers have a checker history with that, obviously, So
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: all you can do is hope, weight see and hope.
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: And the Packers have put their eggs into that basket
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: right now.
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: But there's no way to know, and it's wait to
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: really know.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: But listen, we've got to be nervous about a kicker,
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: right this is that time. Now, Hopefully he'll get he'll
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: get things figured out. Maybe it's a little jitters, he'll
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: get used to the footing, he'll get used to the holder.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: He'll get us to the operation and start nailing them
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: through the uprights.
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: There, Billy the first snap observers, Jagger Burton started at
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: right guard with Belton at right tackle.
• 10:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and and I thought that was somewhat due to
• 10:33
  Speaker 8: Zach Tom's availability, but also Pete Thorerty put up a
• 10:36
  Speaker 8: really cool piece at at the Journal Centel in JS
• 10:39
  Speaker 8: online of just can you compare Jagger Burton to Corey
• 10:43
  Speaker 8: Linsley if they got to start right away? Burton was
• 10:46
  Speaker 8: playing a ton of big games down there in the sec,
• 10:49
  Speaker 8: albeit for a bottom dweller in.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: The sec of Kentucky.
• 10:53
  Speaker 8: But Belton people just thought was for sure going to
• 10:56
  Speaker 8: be a guard after last year he got drafted as
• 10:58
  Speaker 8: a tackle as playtag his whole life and again still
• 11:01
  Speaker 8: more money is at tackle. I wouldn't be surprised if
• 11:04
  Speaker 8: he wants to continually throw his name into the ring
• 11:07
  Speaker 8: to be playing on the outside. And the tough thing
• 11:10
  Speaker 8: about the injury front from a year ago Parsons and
• 11:13
  Speaker 8: Craft takes so much oxygen up. But Zach Tom happened
• 11:17
  Speaker 8: in the exact same game, right around the exact same
• 11:19
  Speaker 8: time as Micah Parsons, and the impact on the offense
• 11:24
  Speaker 8: was striking every single week. You saw that miss even more.
• 11:27
  Speaker 8: You gotta have that right tackle more shirt up if
• 11:30
  Speaker 8: indeed he's not going to be ready right away, because
• 11:33
  Speaker 8: I don't think it's You know that petel attendant injury
• 11:36
  Speaker 8: a lot better than a lot of other people do, Drew.
• 11:38
  Speaker 8: That's a tough thing to be coming back from for
• 11:41
  Speaker 8: anybody frame six foot three and three hundred pounds. I
• 11:46
  Speaker 8: got to assume is even more difficult to be able
• 11:49
  Speaker 8: to be right back to where you were after that injury.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and the offensive line is obviously gonna be a
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: big storyline as we moved through. Who plays, how they play,
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: how they stay healthy, and it's probably gonna dictate the
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: success of this team. But would you say, guys, more
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: than any other position group, you kind of know what
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: you haven't received, although you did have some movement there
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: with Dobb's not there. But I think that's gonna be
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: quite interesting as well, how Golden takes that next step
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: with the old line.
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: Billy.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: We're looking for a lot of coverage from you this year,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: and that a lot of analysis because I think it's
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: going to be very important. Love going to Watson deep
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: got everyone excited saw that video. That was the one
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: that really got people jacked up as much as you
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: can and for OTAs, but of course I think it
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: was Nickson that got kind of beat on that. So
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: then it's like it's always that sort of YINGI and
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: Yang when your team's playing themselves.
• 12:34
  Speaker 8: Yeah, well, the despair and this is where the defense
• 12:38
  Speaker 8: doesn't feel like their backs are fully against the wall,
• 12:40
  Speaker 8: because when we go up there to training camp, every
• 12:42
  Speaker 8: single day is a road game for the defense, right
• 12:46
  Speaker 8: everybody in those stands, even though they got green and
• 12:49
  Speaker 8: gold on and they're all chaired for the Green Bay Packers.
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: They want to see you get cooked.
• 12:53
  Speaker 8: They want to see Jordan Love throwing deep touchdowns to
• 12:55
  Speaker 8: Matthew Golden Christian Watson. They want to see big holes
• 12:58
  Speaker 8: in the run game. They want to see the offense
• 13:00
  Speaker 8: scoring points. And on the ride home they'll question things
• 13:03
  Speaker 8: about the defense, but right away, you want to see
• 13:06
  Speaker 8: the offense rolling, and when you're in shorts, it's a
• 13:09
  Speaker 8: lot easier to feel like that can be the case.
• 13:12
  Speaker 8: They got a their work cut up for work cut
• 13:14
  Speaker 8: out for them though upfront because it was disasters a
• 13:19
  Speaker 8: little too strong, but it was the biggest difference in
• 13:23
  Speaker 8: their offense over the last couple of years was the
• 13:25
  Speaker 8: fact that their offensive line a year ago, Drew, I mean,
• 13:28
  Speaker 8: was as underperforming as it's been in close to two decades,
• 13:31
  Speaker 8: So that there's a lot of options and a lot
• 13:34
  Speaker 8: of possibility to get better up there, and they desperately
• 13:36
  Speaker 8: need to.
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: Definitely not used to that.
• 13:38
  Speaker 8: No, it's just been too It's been far long since
• 13:42
  Speaker 8: they've been in this position where you're not being able
• 13:45
  Speaker 8: to move anybody in the run game and pass protec
• 13:47
  Speaker 8: consistently red hot tim not. Do you think the Packers
• 13:50
  Speaker 8: keep Jacobs all year or did they get rid of
• 13:52
  Speaker 8: him before he has a chance to choke in the
• 13:55
  Speaker 8: playoffs too soon?
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: Now?
• 13:57
  Speaker 8: I also think more of the Jacobs the fumble was
• 13:59
  Speaker 8: in the regular season game. That was in the second
• 14:02
  Speaker 8: of the two games down in Chicago, where he was
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: clearly hampered throughout the back half of the year. But
• 14:08
  Speaker 8: I also still put so much of that Drew on
• 14:10
  Speaker 8: the offensive line because he had no room before the
• 14:14
  Speaker 8: line of scrimmage to get anything going. Compared to his
• 14:17
  Speaker 8: first year all the amount of contact that he had
• 14:21
  Speaker 8: before the line of scrimmage was some of the most
• 14:23
  Speaker 8: in football Yep, he was getting just swarmed consistently. So
• 14:28
  Speaker 8: I also believe Josh Jacobs is on the Packers for
• 14:33
  Speaker 8: twenty twenty six, even though the salary cap did make
• 14:36
  Speaker 8: sense for the post June first. I think they made
• 14:38
  Speaker 8: that decision before free agency, like if you were going
• 14:42
  Speaker 8: to make the move and get out of the contract,
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: which was when you signed the four year, forty eight
• 14:48
  Speaker 8: million dollar deal. We all looked at it and said,
• 14:50
  Speaker 8: that's a three year contract and they'll figure out.
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: If they want to go forward on the fourth one.
• 14:54
  Speaker 8: And most likely so Packers don't sign a whole lot
• 14:56
  Speaker 8: of guys at the third contracts.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: That might be somewhere else.
• 15:00
  Speaker 8: There wasn't out at in this offseason, but it seemed
• 15:04
  Speaker 8: pretty clean cut. The better bet was to bet on
• 15:07
  Speaker 8: the common betting that he's going to have himself a
• 15:09
  Speaker 8: bounce back here because running backs a lot of times,
• 15:11
  Speaker 8: like relievers have been every other year. Kind of proposition
• 15:14
  Speaker 8: that is an absolute fact that is backed up by
• 15:16
  Speaker 8: the data. Especially if you have three hundred plus carries,
• 15:19
  Speaker 8: you're gonna pay that price at some particular point.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: So big stories Marshawn Lloyd, his you know health, big
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: story ready to put that narrative to Bed Drew, Yeah,
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: of course, how do you put that narrative to Bed?
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: Like getting out of the tub, make the club to
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: prove it.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: He talked about you guys want to hear that audio.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: That was pretty cool to hear, but want to hear that.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: Yes, I try to stay away from it.
• 15:46
  Speaker 7: But my family, my family, my girlfriend, my girlfriend's family,
• 15:49
  Speaker 7: my mother, my sisters, like everyone, they do, they look
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: at that stuff, but me, I just kind of just
• 15:54
  Speaker 7: try to. I do see some people that that you know,
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: that text me personally on like social media or something else,
• 15:59
  Speaker 7: say you know, good things, and I do see some
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: bad things as well, but it comes with it, and
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: I'm just I'm excited. I'm excited to you know, prove
• 16:06
  Speaker 7: the ones that are excited right, and then prove the
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: ones that are not excited I'm improve them wrong. You
• 16:12
  Speaker 7: don't want to be known for this, yes, exactly, and
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: right now that's what you're known for.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: What is that like?
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: To kind of go through that? Honestly, I can't. I
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: couldn't do it. I can't do anything until I make
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: it happen. Like like coach Lafleur said, prove it. I mean,
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: if i want to change that narrative, prove it.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: There you go, likable guy, I feel, you know, I
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: feel for a guy that wants probably to do everything
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: you can or does everything ken wants it to work out,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: and it's kind of hung with this thing that probably
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: didn't fall to his own can't stay healthy. But I
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: like that, and I like the fact that a Mett
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: Laflelor message stuck with him there too.
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: I mean right, it's like, hey, there you go.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: He's changes making the impact of that. People question sometimes.
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: Mar Shaan Lloyd and not a guy who was unhappy
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: with his role last year other than being injured, Yeah,
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: being mostly the training table assistant. And there's nobody's more
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: frustrated when they get hurt, them players, right, nobody's more
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: frustrated with a lack of successful performance than the guys
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: on the field doing it. But you hear it right there, man.
• 17:19
  Speaker 8: Everybody around you, even if you don't see it, will
• 17:22
  Speaker 8: let you know.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: Hey, man, this is what they're saying about you. This
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: is what they're saying about.
• 17:25
  Speaker 8: You, and and something that it's uh in a nice light.
• 17:29
  Speaker 8: Some people are meaning it just tiptoeing around it, accidentally
• 17:32
  Speaker 8: dropping the breadcrumbs, but those chips keep stacking up on
• 17:36
  Speaker 8: the shoulder. He's too talented to not have something to
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: say about it, and hopefully he gets a chance to
• 17:40
  Speaker 8: do it, because I mean, that big play against the
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: Colts is still just living and everybody he's got talent.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: He has talent, and I think it was evident in college,
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: evident with how they stuck with him, and we're just
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: dying to see that. And I think that also brings
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: up a good point that yes, people always say we'll
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: just avoid social media, get off of it. It's a
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: little bit pervasive to a point, like you can try
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: and stay off a bit, you know, but people will,
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: You'll hear what everyone's saying about you, and people will
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: be in your ear if you're in that position, No,
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: maybe you should get a hack that would help him out.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: I also love the tweet that wes our buddy Wes
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Hakuitet about him. He said he's been living in the
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: athlete's worst nightmare for two years and yet never hit
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: from the media, never been snippy and asspot injuries, never
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: stop smiling man Shawn Lloyd. That's raids a man of character.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: Hopefully we get to see the running back as well, So.
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: It's good to see you.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: You can only handle what you can handle, and he's
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: tried to handle it the right way. So hopefully good
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: things to come and help to come from Marshawn Lloyd
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: here all right.
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: On the way out here our current electric superhero of
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: the day. Is it too easy two pedestrian to say,
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: just Kyle Harrison twelve strikeouts and ridiculously ra making a
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: case planning a flag that he should be in the
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: discussion for the All Star team along with Miss Rowski.
• 18:48
  Speaker 8: Yeah, Drew, I think it's got to be Harrison, like
• 18:50
  Speaker 8: the consistency that he's put together and being able to
• 18:55
  Speaker 8: silence a little bit of the frustration and the criticism.
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: And that was a personal one last night.
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: Especially when MRV mentions it that you could tell the
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: energy was a little bit juiced up, that he could
• 19:06
  Speaker 8: feel a little bit more excitement, and definitely wanted to
• 19:09
  Speaker 8: make a statement he's gonna be our superhero the day
• 19:11
  Speaker 8: because he was a superhero performance last night and also
• 19:14
  Speaker 8: a nice he got the respect from Garrett Mitchell. Only
• 19:18
  Speaker 8: two cups of water yesterday, not full buckets off on
• 19:22
  Speaker 8: Kyle Harrison, so they wanted to keep that sweaty hat,
• 19:25
  Speaker 8: salt stained in all and as much as we become
• 19:28
  Speaker 8: superhero fans and movies are all about superheroes. Right now,
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: they can make a movie about the superheroes at Current
• 19:32

  Speaker 8: lighting installation. They had a couple of guys working on
• 19:49
  Speaker 8: the outside that. But right now at your home, the

• 21:35
  Speaker 5: Oh, come on here, Philly's gonna go to the sportsbook
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: and put money on the Chicago Dogs.
• 21:41
  Speaker 8: And Friday Dogs plus one twenty five seems a little
• 21:45
  Speaker 8: bit more adenticing. But so is this the Is that
• 21:47
  Speaker 8: the tax that you gotta pay Weggs to get one
• 21:50
  Speaker 8: night maybe at the Warhorses, uh Brazilian steakhouse there in Lincoln, Nebraska,
• 21:55
  Speaker 8: Is that you got to pay the tax of like
• 21:56
  Speaker 8: eight or ten thousand screaming kids for three hours while
• 21:59
  Speaker 8: you guys are dice up the the Lincoln kids.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: So that's that is the catch. That is the catch.
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: So we did check into that. So an eleven o'clock
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: game getting done about two thirty, let's just say maybe
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: maybe not two thirty. Maybe let's just maybe one thirty.
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: We got a twelve minute uber to the Warhorse. We're
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: going to go there for a little while, play there
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: and hopefully pay for our Brazilian steak dinner as we
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: come home tonight and just gouge ourselves on a meat coma.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: You know, I told these guys again it sounds exciting,
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: But I told these guys, I was surprised you're in Lincoln.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: I thought it'd be Omaha Stakes, but that's a rival.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: I'd suppose Lincoln Omaha. Right, So you're doing Brazilian steak
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: in Lincoln.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: You know what it might be right, it might be
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: right there.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: Whatever, whatever kind of deal you get it that you
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: know a deals the king there, you know, so hey
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: at the if it's uh, it's about the Brazilian steak,
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: it's about the Braggs.
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: But it is one of my favorite parts is watching
• 22:57
  Speaker 8: the teams come together and feeling the comer. When you
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: guys are together as long as these trips do, you
• 23:02
  Speaker 8: start to see it. But when you got guys that
• 23:04
  Speaker 8: are competing I mean together, but also everyone's still trying
• 23:09
  Speaker 8: to get a different call, and there's going to be
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: team success and personal success. How is the first month
• 23:16
  Speaker 8: and how have you started to see the clubhouse come together?
• 23:19
  Speaker 8: Because I think that's one of my favorite parts of
• 23:21
  Speaker 8: any league, and in your league it's even more unique.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, you can relate that to Major League Baseball.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: You can relate that to affiliated baseball. We drive in
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: last night or the other night we're driving in and
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: we get a phone call on the bus. I lost
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: a picture a lot this morn or yesterday morning. To
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: the Toronto Blue Jays. We had a shortstop who was
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: converted to a pitcher. He's an Oregon State put in
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: the National Championship team. Atlanta Braves drafted him top draft pick,
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: a second rounder, converted him into a pitcher. He came
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: to me last year. He came to us last year,
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: I should say, came back this year again and got
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: the phone call and he he took a flight to
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: Boston and he's playing for Double A New New England,
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: New Hampshire something, double A for the Toronto Blue Jers.
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: So again, that's what it is. You're waiting for that call,
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: just like you are if you're a Timber rattler, just
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: like if you're a Biloxi shucker, if you're in Nashville,
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. You're waiting for that. And like you said,
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: it is a team sport, but it's an I. There
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: is an I in this team sport at this level,
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: maybe not at the big leagues big leagues, and you know,
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: once you got things figured out like the Milwaukee Brewers do,
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: there's a little bit more team in it and less
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: I but when you're trying to get there, there is
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: eye and it's not selfish and it's not wrong. It's
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: the right thing because that's what you have to do.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: Talking to Paul Wagner Pitt, you go to the Lake
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: Country Dockhouns Dockhounds dot com if you want to go
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: check out their games against the Chicago Dogs. We joked,
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: but a lot of times, Wags when teams come in
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: cold and their long trip and they cold jacket, there's
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: something liberating about it. And I expect the Dockhounds may
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: they might put up a crooked number on Friday after
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: a long bus ride over night. That's just that's the
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: way it works.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: Well, well, if you play it right, you we are right, Billy, Billy,
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: you are right when you're going west to east. That
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: that's the tough one. Then I then I always take
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: I take the traveling team to get smoked.
• 25:18
  Speaker 8: You gotta be fighting an edge and you can you
• 25:20
  Speaker 8: can see it in the travel But it's it's also
• 25:23
  Speaker 8: one of those where as the season goes on, Drew
• 25:25
  Speaker 8: and I mentioned it like for the Brewers. Right now,
• 25:28
  Speaker 8: you start circling on the schedule. All right, So I'm
• 25:30
  Speaker 8: just gonna pa, I'm just gonna take the Brewers every
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: single time Misserrowski or Harrison starts. Uh, it's it's the
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: fool's errand because the game will humble you pretty quickly.
• 25:39
  Speaker 8: But it is funny when you start seeing guys buzzing, uh,
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: as well as Harrison and Miserowski. Are we there's got
• 25:46
  Speaker 8: to be a moment where people start wondering, are they
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: ever gonna lose again?
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: I mean those two We've talked about this before. Those
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: two give you so much prompts And I was talking
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: to somebody, you know what. With that being said, I
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: think this is this team especial like the last two years.
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, Pat Murphy has done an amazing job that
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: Milwaukee Brewers, the organization, Matt Arnold, everybody, you can tip
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: your hat to, every single person. But as this season
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: comes and with those two donkeys, when you got probably
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: the hottest, the best pitcher and miz and you got
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: Harrison coming from the left side, that's a one two
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: punch where I think as you move forward, we're what
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: one third of the way into this season, you really
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: really really have to consider what prospects. You like what
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: you have and what you're willing to give. There's a
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: lot of ones. What are the needs? But this Milwaukee
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: Brewer team is going to figure that out at this
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: at the right time this year because this is a
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: World Series team, this is a championship team.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: Are you worried about the lack of power? When you
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: say that, I mean because I think a lot of
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: us like to think that. And obviously they're good enough
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: to get the wins, getting the playoffs, but you know
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: a lot of people look at the lack of power.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: The team's not hit a lot of home runs, and
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: it seems like once that time comes, you need those.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Does that concern you as much? Do you think that'll
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: that'll kind of come with with the season or what
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: do you think?
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: Weggs, I think that may be in need. What I
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: don't know? Again, I know they won last night eight
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: to three. I didn't see the box score. I saw
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: Yellie one good. I didn't know if anybody hit a
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: home run.
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: Powers got power.
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: So what do we have? So we have forty one?
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: So we have forty one home runs on the year.
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: We're a third of the way through the season. Yeah,
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: that that is a concern because when you get into postseason,
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: you know it is the three run, the bas is
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: clearing shot over the fence that scores and wins games
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: in the postseason. It's it's really nice to see baseball
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: manufacturing runs, scoring eighteen runs without a home run, scoring
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: seven runs in the second inning. You know, base to base,
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: station to station. It's just exciting to see that. But
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: you're right to win it, I think, and that may
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: be the need that may be when they come to evaluate.
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: They got to evaluate their farm system. What can they
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: give up? What do they want to hang on to?
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: Who fits their who fits their theme? And how are
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: they going to draft? Who is expendable and what is
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: the value that they have to get. Let's just say
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: that said power that you want or a left handed
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: reliever or something come down to the postseason.
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: Wags pitchers wins have been marginalized as a stat. People
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: don't put a lot of stock into that. But one
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: of the things I look at is what does a
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: team's record win a starter? Pitches and Harrison the Brewers
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: lost two of his first three starts by scores of
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: three to two and three to one. Uh I have
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: not lost since so he's this year's Quinn Priester, right.
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: I mean, I've only lost two of his outings this year.
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: The rest have Ben W's and you know he doesn't
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: always get to win, but he's paving the way. What
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: is that stand?
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: That's huge because that even though the wins and losses,
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: and you know, I think they're still important. So I
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: know I'm still gonna fight arming on it, but you
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: know what, there's statistics that are important, and guys look
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: at that. And when when you have twenty seven guys
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: and they're looking and they see that those two donkeys
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: are coming in the game and you're bringing up Harrison,
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: we're gonna win. And it's not like we may win today,
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: we have a chance to win today. When those two
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: guys get on the bump, the guys know they're going
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: to win. And that's a great feeling. And it does
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: rule whether or not you get the loss, whether that
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: first that first loss, or that first one that Harrison
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: had when I think it was Bowers or Sanchez with
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: the ninety mile an hour fastball at his kneecaps. Other
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: than that, guys know that they are going to win,
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: and that is so huge, regardless of that, and you
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: know again the statistic doesn't help him going in the
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: arbitration because he didn't get the w. But I'll tell
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: you what the guys on the in the bench in
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: the clubhouse all know it.
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: Weggs when when you look at this club and how
• 30:09
  Speaker 8: they've been able to hit, and you mentioned yelly yes
• 30:12
  Speaker 8: last night, so there a strike away from going into
• 30:15
  Speaker 8: the ninth inning in a one run ball game. He
• 30:19
  Speaker 8: fills the hole in between first and second, scores two runs,
• 30:23
  Speaker 8: and then two guys after they score two more and
• 30:25
  Speaker 8: it's a it's a quick four and they put up
• 30:27
  Speaker 8: a snowman on the night you talk about it of
• 30:29
  Speaker 8: points on the board. What a difference is that when
• 30:32
  Speaker 8: McGill walks in, Some guys feel like as a closer,
• 30:36
  Speaker 8: they struggle when they're not in a closing situation. But
• 30:40
  Speaker 8: you're getting hot for what might be the tightest of
• 30:42
  Speaker 8: a closing situation. Then your key guys give you three
• 30:45
  Speaker 8: straight hits, give you a five run cushion. He goes
• 30:48
  Speaker 8: out there, pumps ten strikes and they're out the door.
• 30:51
  Speaker 8: Is that a difficult mind frame to flip quickly as
• 30:54
  Speaker 8: to what kind of the appearance is going to be,
• 30:56
  Speaker 8: or for a guy like McGill who's still trying to
• 30:58
  Speaker 8: make sure that he finds his full footing on the year,
• 31:01
  Speaker 8: is it just go and throw strikes and feel better
• 31:03
  Speaker 8: about it, how regardless.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: And that's the way he has to look at it.
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: That's what we're trying to do. We're trying to get
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: him back to where he was last year, and every
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: outing counts, and that situation, I'm assuming I'm probably Murphy
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: was probably talking to Chris Hook probably didn't want to
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: use him, depending on the workload, what the schedule was,
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: or how we had to use him or how they
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: had to use him. But once he got hot and
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: he was ready to go, you're not going to sit
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: him down, bring somebody else up on a low leverage
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: situation and let him go. He's hot, he's ready to go,
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: let McGill go. He's still trying to figure things out.
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: We want to get to where he was last year.
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: But in a normal situation, you would love to have
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: the time to save the high leverage guy for obviously
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: a high leverage situation, but in this case, the Brewers
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: put up the points and he's already hot. He's got
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: to go out there. So his mentality is still the same.
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: He gets up and he's getting cranked up and ready
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: to go. He's still focused on a save and probably
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: didn't even realize it. He just came in, did his job,
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: and that's what That's what Milwaukee Brewer Baseball does. All
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: these guys are just doing their job. They do it
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: when they're called upon, they're they're doing it. If I'm
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: asked to go four innings, drawing it, hey, I really
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: love to get that win. Now. I don't even think
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: that crosses his mind. This is a this is a
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: machine that's rolling so well right now. You want four, fine,
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: give Patrick the one inning and he can have the
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: w I don't care because we're going to win another ballgame.
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: Good stuff, Wags, thanks for joining us. I would suggest
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: having ear plugs ready, because those school games, at least
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: in hockey, billion arman work though. They can get.
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: And the sayings they come up with they haven't changed.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: But they're allowed to have knocked you. But we love them.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: We love them.
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: God forbid something happens with a six or a seven.
• 32:53
  Speaker 8: Oh god, yeah, game, this game gets to that on
• 32:56
  Speaker 8: the scoreboard, Wags, watch out. But this weekend finally, My
• 33:00
  Speaker 8: favorite promotion in all of sports happens on Friday night.

• 33:24
  Speaker 8: did with my buddy. It was called the Drinkers Does
• 33:25
  Speaker 8: and you had to drink six beers and eat six
• 33:27
  Speaker 8: pack of glazers in an hour.
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: That was maybe the most enjoyable one that you have
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: on the challenge. That's one hell I'd sign up without
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: playing fantasy. Wouldn't it just be fun that some people

  Speaker 8: This now goes to the Awaken Bank story of the day,
• 35:26
  Speaker 8: coincides with a hot take. I got a hot take.
• 35:28
  Speaker 8: This is gonna be the first year in I think
• 35:30
  Speaker 8: four years, I will not be buying the Madden video game.
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: Oh that's a big deal.
• 35:36
  Speaker 8: Because of the news that just came down from EA
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: Sports with this as the Iceman arrives Wild Williams. So
• 35:46
  Speaker 8: twenty twenty seven Madden cover athlete is none other than
• 35:51
  Speaker 8: Bears quarterback Caleb Williams, which today as his jumpman pose
• 35:56
  Speaker 8: throw from the NFC Wild Card game against the Packers
• 36:00
  Speaker 8: will be on the main cover. His Iceman version will
• 36:05
  Speaker 8: be on the deluxe cover.
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: What a joke.
• 36:08
  Speaker 8: He now has more Madden covers than Aaron Rodgers in
• 36:13
  Speaker 8: his NFL career.
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: Well, it's a joke.
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: Well, if they put us completion percentage on the cover.
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: You know what, though, this is good. This is good, right.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: I mean we know about the cover curse, right. We
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: got a bad season coming up for the Chicago Bears
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: and Caleb Williams.
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, bad season.
• 36:27
  Speaker 8: The Madden curse has been somewhat lifted over the last
• 36:31
  Speaker 8: number of years, unfortunately has been There's a lot that
• 36:34
  Speaker 8: still have fallen victim to it, no doubt about it.
• 36:36
  Speaker 8: I mean, like you look at Saquon Barkley's season last
• 36:40
  Speaker 8: year after being on the cover of Man, It's gonna
• 36:43
  Speaker 8: be hard to replicate, going for two thousand and maybe
• 36:46
  Speaker 8: be in the most impressive offensive player the league has seen. However,
• 36:50
  Speaker 8: eleven hundred yards and seven touchdowns wasn't a bad season,
• 36:53
  Speaker 8: sure as heck, wasn't one hundred and twenty yards a
• 36:55
  Speaker 8: game like he had the year before and finished number
• 36:59
  Speaker 8: three in the end VP voting.
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, he wasn't even first team All Pro.
• 37:02
  Speaker 8: So there still could be a bit of the Madden curse,
• 37:07
  Speaker 8: but it's definitely not the same as it used to be. However,
• 37:10
  Speaker 8: Caleb Williams gets the glory and the lure as the
• 37:14
  Speaker 8: Madden cover Athlete in twenty twenty seven.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: You know what it's It's funny because you know what
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: hype this guy up. Set him up, put him on
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: that pedestal because we know about the hero arc. And
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: then listen, if this thing comes crumbling down, it's gonna
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: crumble down hard, and I'm ready to see a little chaos.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: And at this point it doesn't matter because I can't
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: get out of my Twitter anyway because it's been hacked.
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: So all those Bear fans that have book marked my.
• 37:36
  Speaker 8: Tweets, oh god, Caleb season eight, four, six, nine two
• 37:40
  Speaker 8: is so salty.
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: You know what you're not seeing the digs that he
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: said a night. You know what this is. But you
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: know what, this might work out perfectly?
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: Why because whatever that absolute jerk all right, that that
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: has hacked my account mentor right that mentor b whoever
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: it is, I mean, the the absolute drag of society,
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: he's about to feel what it's like to get the
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: wrath of the inn.
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: He's about to be getting mentioned like nobody's business. Oh my,
• 38:10
  Speaker 5: so might give your your account back? Comments on my nose? Yes,
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: he might have pity on me.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: And finally, this might be the way that I get
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: my Twitter accountback? Is that Bears fans clap back so
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: hard at this, You know dude from what was? Yeah,
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: you have Russia or somewhere that's hacked my account.
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: We don't know where. And this guy gets I don't know.
• 38:28
  Speaker 5: I don't want any of Leegoslavia doms, County. We don't
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: know county. Oh my, I don't know. No one knows.
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: My man could be right behind you. You have no
• 38:37
  Speaker 5: clue where this guy could be.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: He could be, he could be and you know what, Listen,
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: he didn't know what the rath was gonna be of
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: this NFC North rivalry, and he'd be like, please, I
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: don't want any part of this anymore.
• 38:47
  Speaker 8: So mad Madden curse over the last couple of years.
• 38:50
  Speaker 8: I mentioned Saquon Barkley a year ago, twenty twenty five.
• 38:53
  Speaker 8: It was alive and well because it was Christian McCaffrey
• 38:56
  Speaker 8: on the cover. Well, McCaffrey was lights out when he
• 38:58
  Speaker 8: was the twenty twenty three Offense Player of the Year,
• 39:01
  Speaker 8: willing to miss four games, to miss all but four
• 39:04
  Speaker 8: games in his post cover season due to his Achilles tendonitis,
• 39:08
  Speaker 8: which saw him for more time. I think overseas trying
• 39:12
  Speaker 8: to get treatment. The year before, it was Josh Allen,
• 39:15
  Speaker 8: who I mean again was a forty touchdown guy, was
• 39:18
  Speaker 8: in the playoffs but got cursed into the playoffs in
• 39:21
  Speaker 8: twenty twenty.
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: Four as well.
• 39:22
  Speaker 8: Coach Madden was in twenty twenty three after he had
• 39:25
  Speaker 8: passed away at the age of eighty five.
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: Late in twenty twenty.
• 39:27
  Speaker 8: One, there was Mahomes and Brady after they went to
• 39:31
  Speaker 8: the Super Bowl. Mahomes went back to the Super Bowl.
• 39:35
  Speaker 8: Brady sure as heck, didn't after that year in Tampa Bay.
• 39:38
  Speaker 8: So there's a number of them here that don't look
• 39:41
  Speaker 8: as cursed. Of Mahomes and Lamar Jackson. In twenty nineteen,
• 39:45
  Speaker 8: Antonio Brown okay, and next year one of the game's
• 39:50
  Speaker 8: most gifted route runners. Brown had a career fifteen a
• 39:52
  Speaker 8: career high fifteen touchdowns during his cover year, but it
• 39:55
  Speaker 8: proved to be subultuous and the Steelers locker room, resulting
• 39:58
  Speaker 8: in a trade to the Raiders after the season. So
• 40:01
  Speaker 8: the season itself, the production was good, but it then
• 40:05
  Speaker 8: led to him, you know, cryogenically freezing his feet and
• 40:08
  Speaker 8: getting traded to the Raiders and then everything else happening.
• 40:11
  Speaker 8: So hey, just there's a lot of sliding scales here.
• 40:16
  Speaker 8: But it's interesting to see now. You know, Jen Jade Daniels,
• 40:20
  Speaker 8: number two overall pick in that draft, goes to the
• 40:22
  Speaker 8: NFC title game as a rookie. Drake May has a
• 40:26
  Speaker 8: Super Bowl appearance. Caleb Williams has a Madden cover. So listen,
• 40:31
  Speaker 8: that top three is pretty dang good. You can stack
• 40:33
  Speaker 8: up the accomplishments in the midst there.
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see. We'll see up now. Is there a
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: reason you didn't get it or you're just not gonna
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: be playing as much? Was there like a like a game,
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: like a principal reason?
• 40:43
  Speaker 8: Like, no, the principal reason is I'm not buying That's
• 40:48
  Speaker 8: what I was wanting one hundred percent. I have no
• 40:50
  Speaker 8: I have no interest in the skip a year when
• 40:52
  Speaker 8: this clown's in the cover. Sure, yeah, I'm with you,
• 40:54
  Speaker 8: all right. I hope you like playing Hammond.
• 40:57
