1:51
Speaker 1: Do you feel any improvement?
1:53
Speaker 3: Armen?
1:53
Speaker 1: Is it better than it was?
1:54
Speaker 6: The numbers say it is, But I don't feel improvement, unfortunately.
1:58
Speaker 6: I don't know if that's accumulating eyes had been itchy
2:01
Speaker 6: and scratching. I don't know if that's just our regular
2:03
Speaker 6: you know, three thirty am wake up call, or it's
2:06
Speaker 6: or it's the cumulative effect of the smoke in my
2:08
Speaker 6: eyes because I didn't try to go outside last night,
2:10
Speaker 6: and I can't wait till we talked to dolf In
2:12
Speaker 6: about an hour and a half because he did spend
2:15
Speaker 6: a little time outside and won't have to ask him
2:16
Speaker 6: what that was. But even just taking the garbage cans
2:19
Speaker 6: back inside, it was a little rough. So I can't
2:22
Speaker 6: say I feel improvement, although apparently the standard measure says
2:26
Speaker 6: there is, but.
2:28
Speaker 1: It is really high quality index we're all checking.
2:30
Speaker 3: It's kind of like the a little bit like the
2:33
Speaker 3: you know, wind chill factor. Yeah you're four one k
2:38
Speaker 3: because it's like you look at it and like, all right,
2:40
Speaker 3: well it's smoky, but how much smoke more smoky is it?
2:42
Speaker 3: I was.
2:43
Speaker 1: I took the dog out for a quick you know,
2:45
Speaker 1: little tinkles a walk, had to do his thing. It's
2:48
Speaker 1: at four o'clock.
2:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like four o'clock yesterday afternoon, and it was
2:52
Speaker 3: not good. And get he thought we were like historically bad,
2:56
Speaker 3: and we had at one point yesterday in some parts
2:58
Speaker 3: of our listening area the worst air quality in the
3:01
Speaker 3: world where it's.
3:01
Speaker 6: In the world, which is like, boy, now I know
3:03
Speaker 6: what it's like to live in somemog areas and things
3:06
Speaker 6: like that.
3:07
Speaker 3: Used to be like in the seventies before they started
3:08
Speaker 3: to mitigate some of these things.
3:10
Speaker 6: Well, it's listen, makes you appreciate the good air that
3:14
Speaker 6: we have most of the time of the year, that's
3:15
Speaker 6: for sure. You don't you mentioned it yesterday, Drew. It's
3:17
Speaker 6: not something you're gonna take for granted again. And uh,
3:20
Speaker 6: I'm just hopeful for some sort of change in the
3:22
Speaker 6: atmosphere to blow this thing out. You're getting any relief
3:24
Speaker 6: by the lake yesterday or anything?
3:26
Speaker 3: It wasn't.
3:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't as bad. Some people were reporting that
3:30
Speaker 1: it got it up a bit last night.
3:32
Speaker 3: But I was having trouble seeing like, you know, the
3:34
Speaker 3: US Bank, the biggest building in the city. I had
3:36
Speaker 3: oh yeah, because it was just like a big fog
3:39
Speaker 3: base of haze. Yeah, like we were. It was hazardous.
3:44
Speaker 3: And now that begs question because they played a ball
3:46
Speaker 3: game last night in Philadelphia and it was hazy and
3:49
Speaker 3: they moved it up an hour. They they informed the
3:53
Speaker 3: teams at four o'clock. Can you imagine being a fan
3:56
Speaker 3: and like what like they moved it up from seven
3:58
Speaker 3: to ten per s pitch to six ten?
4:00
Speaker 1: Is that because their worst air was going to be
4:02
Speaker 1: coming late?
4:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, they figured it was going to get worse out
4:04
Speaker 3: right dark. Well, there were some like some guys said
4:07
Speaker 3: it was a little bit difficult tracking flyballs. Got me thinking,
4:11
Speaker 3: what's the roof status tonight? Just closing the roof at
4:13
Speaker 3: American Family Field help or hurt.
4:15
Speaker 6: I was talking with this with some people around the
4:17
Speaker 6: building yesterday and just thinking about it.
4:20
Speaker 1: I'm not sure it really helps, because.
4:22
Speaker 6: You want air if you It's sort of like when
4:25
Speaker 6: the fireworks go off after a home run. Yeah, it
4:28
Speaker 6: lingers and after a while it dissipates, but but you
4:32
Speaker 6: can get something now. People have said, you know, the
4:34
Speaker 6: best thing to do is run your air conditioning circulate
4:37
Speaker 6: air clean air. You know that little that little button
4:40
Speaker 6: in your car that's got the cycle.
4:41
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that you want that. So then I thought, well, okay.
4:45
Speaker 6: At first, I thought, well, it's not good to close
4:47
Speaker 6: the roof because unless they can pump the pump the
4:50
Speaker 6: bad air out of the panels right then you get
4:54
Speaker 6: the clean air in. Maybe that you could trap in
4:56
Speaker 6: good air. And then I thought to myself, maybe that
4:58
Speaker 6: would be a good way to do it. But it
5:00
Speaker 6: just feels like it might suffocate in there. But I
5:03
Speaker 6: can't imagine it would be any better if it's open,
5:05
Speaker 6: because then all the dust particle air comes in, So
5:08
Speaker 6: I'm not really sure. I'm sure that they have a
5:10
Speaker 6: lot of discussions going on right now at one Brewer's
5:13
Speaker 6: Way and uh at an American Family Field. They're talking
5:16
Speaker 6: about the situation now and what the best course of
5:18
Speaker 6: action is, what the best thing to do is. Yeah,
5:20
Speaker 6: my first thought is, Okay, that's why we have a
5:22
Speaker 6: roof closet, pump air good air in. But I'm not
5:24
Speaker 6: sure it's all that simple. We like to think everything
5:27
Speaker 6: is that simple. I heard a million people with the
5:28
Speaker 6: same suggestion yesterday. Why can't they just get planes up
5:31
Speaker 6: to Canada and dump water on it like it's that simple.
5:34
Speaker 6: It's never that simple. So I would like to think
5:37
Speaker 6: they're gonna find a way to get the game in
5:39
Speaker 6: and figure out a good if you can get good
5:41
Speaker 6: air in and circulate it with now they can air.
5:44
Speaker 6: Can they air condition the American Family Field?
5:46
Speaker 3: They don't.
5:47
Speaker 1: It used to be like the thing people talked about,
5:50
Speaker 1: but you don't.
5:50
Speaker 3: They don't. They're talking about retro fitting it with right
5:53
Speaker 3: air conditioning and HVAC like just heating.
5:55
Speaker 1: They need to call Donovan Jorgenson's you need to call
5:57
Speaker 1: our friends because that was never a plan.
6:00
Speaker 3: And when they built it. It was not the plan.
6:02
Speaker 6: The whole idea was, you know, we're not We're not
6:04
Speaker 6: gonna heat or cool this whole place. It's just gonna
6:06
Speaker 6: cover us in case of precipitation. So therefore, I'm not
6:10
Speaker 6: really sure you can now what would be more pleasant
6:13
Speaker 6: is I guess up to It's maybe a matter of
6:16
Speaker 6: some subjectivity, closed or open.
6:18
Speaker 3: But we were hoping to go tomorrow night.
6:21
Speaker 6: And I'll tell you what, I'm not going if it's
6:22
Speaker 6: like this, I'm not gonna sit out there and suffer
6:25
Speaker 6: just to you know, watch us try and hit the
6:27
Speaker 6: hit our hit the Marlins pictures. Not that only we can,
6:29
Speaker 6: but it's it was just unbearable, right, Yeah, that is good.
6:33
Speaker 3: Yeah.
6:33
Speaker 6: Yeah, So we'll see how that goes. And then it's
6:35
Speaker 6: Bubblehead tomorrow night. So but we were gonna go tomorrow night,
6:38
Speaker 6: which some reports it will be even worse.
6:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't really, you just don't know. I mean,
6:43
Speaker 3: the reports are that there will be that there will
6:49
Speaker 3: be some rain west like Madison. Our folks in the
6:54
Speaker 3: six o eight shout Out five o'clock club members from
6:56
Speaker 3: Madison represents up Madison.
6:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, people listening around state, But you get a break
7:00
Speaker 1: then a little bit.
7:01
Speaker 3: Yeah, then if it rains, you'll get a little bit
7:03
Speaker 3: of a break. And but if a covernt moves in
7:06
Speaker 3: next week, it could push this stuff here again. I
7:09
Speaker 3: guess what you need is strong southerly winds right the south.
7:12
Speaker 3: We need to get hot stuff right.
7:14
Speaker 1: Man. It's just it's awful. It's awful.
7:18
Speaker 3: And I had someone say to me, like, do you
7:20
Speaker 3: ever remember this when you were a kid, And I'm
7:23
Speaker 3: officially now old, and no, I don't. It's almost like
7:26
Speaker 3: the climate is changing during our lifetime. There's stuff like that.
7:29
Speaker 3: There was a lot of argument about that yesterday. I mean,
7:32
Speaker 3: like anything else drew. This is twenty twenty six, so
7:34
Speaker 3: everything becomes political, of course, But I you can't. I don't.
7:38
Speaker 1: I remember a lot of things for my youth.
7:40
Speaker 6: If there's any talent I have, it's having memories of
7:43
Speaker 6: my nostalgic youth. Oh I don't remember this at all.
7:45
Speaker 6: I remember other things we had problems with, but I
7:47
Speaker 6: don't remember this one. And what the reason for that is.
7:52
Speaker 3: It seemed like snow. We got more snow and more
7:54
Speaker 3: intense snow and cold. But it does seem like the extremes.
7:58
Speaker 3: Man on the margins stuff like fires and tornadoes, maybe hurricanes, and.
8:04
Speaker 6: Then people will say, well, you know, you're just more
8:06
Speaker 6: aware of it. You're just more aware of it because
8:08
Speaker 6: it's pushed in front of you. So I don't know.
8:10
Speaker 6: And then then these things always evolve into.
8:14
Speaker 1: Culture wors exactly, Well, but there is That's.
8:16
Speaker 3: When I leave myself out. Yeah, no, I mean, I mean,
8:19
Speaker 3: that's definitely a possibility. Now.
8:21
Speaker 6: I also saw some people say, well, it was this bad,
8:24
Speaker 6: but it was just in newspaper clippings, and they would
8:27
Speaker 6: show old clippings of like Canadian smoke in the fifties.
8:30
Speaker 6: I don't know, maybe this is anecdotal, but I just
8:33
Speaker 6: don't remember it happened, because this has been pretty consistent
8:35
Speaker 6: every summer.
8:35
Speaker 3: Now, this is pretty much the worst that we've ever
8:38
Speaker 3: had it, and a couple of years ago we had it,
8:40
Speaker 3: but it wasn't this bad. It didn't go double I mean,
8:44
Speaker 3: if hazardous is the three hundred AQ, I don't even
8:46
Speaker 3: know what that stands. I mean with that measures, but
8:49
Speaker 3: we were at like six hundred were double hazardous.
8:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, and again in the world.
8:54
Speaker 3: I think the worst we had, yeah, the worse in
8:56
Speaker 3: the world.
8:56
Speaker 6: I think the worst we had it a few years
8:57
Speaker 6: ago to start at least, was just like, oh, the
8:59
Speaker 6: sun looks cool because it's it wasn't.
9:02
Speaker 3: Like I would still smell in campfiresh a couple of
9:05
Speaker 3: years ago, I remember, but it wasn't this oppressive exactly.
9:09
Speaker 1: That's exactly the way to put it. Yeah, so I
9:11
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm leaving town tonight.
9:14
Speaker 3: I'll be out of town for the weekend and hopefully
9:16
Speaker 3: I'll come back to some clear skies. But hopefully you're
9:19
Speaker 3: going somewhere where it's.
9:20
Speaker 1: I have to worry about tornadoes where I'm going.
9:22
Speaker 3: That's it. But now it's going to be just hot
9:24
Speaker 3: and it should be clear according to the forecast. But
9:28
Speaker 3: I'm interested to see what will happen because that changes
9:30
Speaker 3: the dynamic. When they close the roof on a balmy,
9:34
Speaker 3: humid night, that ball is going to jump out of
9:37
Speaker 3: there definitely comes a little bit more of a bandbox.
9:40
Speaker 1: Feels more like that human door.
9:42
Speaker 3: I don't know anybody got any recommendations and well this
9:44
Speaker 3: impact My question is does this impact your decision to
9:48
Speaker 3: go and do stuff? I mean, I might not want
9:50
Speaker 3: to run a half marathon in this right. I mean
9:53
Speaker 3: that you've trained for and they should probably think about
9:55
Speaker 3: canceling stuff like that, but or you know, postponing that
9:59
Speaker 3: maybe can. But does this impact your decision to go
10:02
Speaker 3: to a Brewers game, like we'll just stay home and
10:04
Speaker 3: watch it on TV in the air conditioning, and when
10:06
Speaker 3: we won't, you know, we won't venture out. Does this
10:09
Speaker 3: impact like there are people with asthmatic conditions. I feel
10:12
Speaker 3: it man back of my throat, that post nasal thing,
10:15
Speaker 3: and then even in the chest, I feel like sure
10:18
Speaker 3: being outside for a little bit. I didn't spend hardly
10:20
Speaker 3: anytime outside, yes, except for a quick dog walk.
10:22
Speaker 6: Which makes you wonder it would have been worse if
10:24
Speaker 6: you did. Oh yeah, I mean it affects my decision
10:27
Speaker 6: making for sure, because first of all, and yeah, I
10:31
Speaker 6: have a toddler. I don't want them out there, you
10:33
Speaker 6: know when when it's this bad either breathing this stuff,
10:35
Speaker 6: and so you have to think about that with the safety,
10:38
Speaker 6: but more just the comfort. I mean what I enjoy
10:41
Speaker 6: taking walks, as you know, Drew daytime evening in the summer.
10:45
Speaker 6: One of my favorite things to do would take long walks.
10:47
Speaker 6: I allow enjoy the exercise, I enjoy the fresh air.
10:49
Speaker 6: I enjoyed obviously all those things you know that comes
10:53
Speaker 6: comes with enjoying nature, But it's much less enjoyable to
10:57
Speaker 6: do it than just to stay inside when is this bad,
11:00
Speaker 6: So all the things I enjoy about it, I can enjoy.
11:02
Speaker 6: So therefore I'm absolutely not gonna go when it's that bad.
11:05
Speaker 6: That's just the decision you make. You got to stay
11:08
Speaker 6: inside and hope to breathe some fresh air. So it
11:11
Speaker 6: definitely any effects.
11:12
Speaker 3: Didn't even bother to go to the pool yesterday, and
11:14
Speaker 3: it was part of my plan was to spend some
11:16
Speaker 3: time at my pool. Well that's the thing.
11:17
Speaker 6: We only get so many days like this in the summer,
11:20
Speaker 6: and it's taken them away. It feels like it feels
11:23
Speaker 6: like lost lost money, right Pink Flamingo BN, Good morning,
11:26
Speaker 6: Happy Friday. My husband and I were talking about the
11:28
Speaker 6: yesterday too. We do not remember air quality ever being
11:30
Speaker 6: this bad here. We will not be going out this weekend.
11:33
Speaker 6: So a last weekend in July for wisconsinights is like
11:38
Speaker 6: it's like losing a couple of paychecks in a way,
11:40
Speaker 6: like you don't expect it, you don't plan for it,
11:42
Speaker 6: and it feels like you'll never get it back. So
11:44
Speaker 6: I don't know, it's pretty rough. Vinnie and Mekwan. Good morning,
11:48
Speaker 6: It's Friday.
11:48
Speaker 3: Good morning Vinnie.
11:49
Speaker 1: Five o'clock club. Good morning, five o'clock club. Please check in.
11:51
Speaker 1: We love it. From the three to one nine.
11:53
Speaker 3: I got married in Colorado during their biggest wildfire they've
11:56
Speaker 3: ever had.
11:56
Speaker 1: I feel your pain.
11:58
Speaker 6: Well, that's tough because you can't really cancel it. Well,
12:00
Speaker 6: you could cancel a wedding, but you try not to.
12:02
Speaker 3: Report from Janny and Appleton. Janny says, it was definitely
12:06
Speaker 3: smoke here here last night. I was out with my
12:08
Speaker 3: dog about eleven. It seems about as bad as it
12:10
Speaker 3: has been. We were supposed to get rain overnight. That
12:12
Speaker 3: didn't happen. Hope they played the game tonight. I think
12:15
Speaker 3: they'll play. It's a matter of roof open, roof close
12:17
Speaker 3: to me because MLB's got to plow through. You don't
12:19
Speaker 3: want to start with a double header because you don't
12:20
Speaker 3: know when it's gonna get better. This could impact the
12:23
Speaker 3: World Cup game on Sunday. Oh absolutely, that Jersey. They're
12:27
Speaker 3: supposed to get rain on Saturday, which would tamp it down,
12:29
Speaker 3: and they think that they're gonna catch a break there,
12:31
Speaker 3: but that would suck.
12:33
Speaker 1: They actually played a game. I believe the Gotham FC.
12:36
Speaker 3: Women's team last night, okay, played a game and they
12:40
Speaker 3: had hydration breaks every fifteen minutes. Give them it's I
12:43
Speaker 3: don't know if it was hydration break or a respiration break.
12:46
Speaker 1: Soccer purest much must have hated that. They didn't like it.
12:49
Speaker 3: Then, like, if you're gonna do that, then why not
12:51
Speaker 3: why even play the game?
12:52
Speaker 1: Why even play? It's not even real.
12:53
Speaker 6: I could see baseball plowing forward because the schedule will
12:58
Speaker 6: get totally bogged down. Yeah, but I could see World
13:00
Speaker 6: Cup saying, no, this is our greatest magnum opus, this
13:04
Speaker 6: is our final. We don't mind waiting a few days
13:06
Speaker 6: and making everyone wait a few days if we have to.
13:08
Speaker 6: I know it's a lot of logistics, but for a
13:11
Speaker 6: World Cup finals Spain Argentina, you want to display the
13:15
Speaker 6: best in the world. Do you want them to be
13:16
Speaker 6: at their best? That's gonna be interesting, true, because I
13:20
Speaker 6: don't think last night the way it was here.
13:23
Speaker 1: Let's say it's that bad in the meadowlands.
13:27
Speaker 6: I don't see how you could have everyone with their
13:29
Speaker 6: tiptop performance. First of all, you think about it, could
13:33
Speaker 6: you even get a good view of the game with
13:35
Speaker 6: the cameras. Remember the Fog Bowl. I know you remember
13:37
Speaker 6: the Fog Bowl with Chicago. You know, it can be
13:40
Speaker 6: tough to watch some of those games on the telecast, So.
13:44
Speaker 1: A lot to think about, I think.
13:45
Speaker 6: I mean, it's easy to Yeah, I think that baseball
13:47
Speaker 6: will plow through and they'll play. But if it gets bad,
13:50
Speaker 6: number people start saying you're putting people in danger, and no,
13:53
Speaker 6: only beond's bad pr either, you know so.
13:57
Speaker 3: From the National Weather Service Milwaukee office five minutes ago,
14:01
Speaker 3: another warm and smoky morning across southern Wisconsin. As southwest
14:05
Speaker 3: winds developed today, rain chances will increase and smoke should
14:08
Speaker 3: begin to move out of the state. Interer Quality advisory
14:11
Speaker 3: remains in effect until noon. Additional chances for rain with
14:15
Speaker 3: cooler tempts on Saturday.
14:16
Speaker 1: Well, fingers crossed. I mean that cool.
14:18
Speaker 3: Attempts also means like that could push more smoke our way.
14:21
Speaker 1: Right, because that's northerly winds. Yep.
14:23
Speaker 6: Somebody was complaining to me or I heard some complete
14:25
Speaker 6: complaining essay. He's like, well, everything moves west to east,
14:29
Speaker 6: doesn't it. Why why isn't this you know, he thought
14:32
Speaker 6: I was a conspe. I was like, no, it's not
14:33
Speaker 6: that simple. Wind can move in all kinds of directions.
14:36
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, generally weather moves west to east. I understand that,
14:39
Speaker 6: but like wind can move all kinds of directions and
14:42
Speaker 6: blow the atmosphere around, and it's frustrating. But I do
14:46
Speaker 6: like making Minnesota my boogeyman. I enjoy that, you know,
14:50
Speaker 6: I mean, I understand. Yeah, Canada wildfires, but this is
14:52
Speaker 6: also northern Minnesota. Great another thing to play Minnesota for.
14:56
Speaker 6: It makes you know, I can I can.
14:57
Speaker 3: Cope that way the whole song. Yeah, this out park guys, Canada.
15:01
Speaker 3: I remember that one we played that last time there
15:03
Speaker 3: was fires. I remember playing that one last time we
15:05
Speaker 3: dealt with this sometimes. Yeah it's interesting man, it's like, uh,
15:10
Speaker 3: beautiful sunsets, okay whatever. I'm old enough to remember that
15:14
Speaker 3: at the old County Stadium, Brewers and White Sox playing
15:17
Speaker 3: a game that was so foggy that they had a
15:20
Speaker 3: fog delay. And then they came out and they wanted
15:23
Speaker 3: to the umpires come out, and they wanted to test whether,
15:26
Speaker 3: you know, outfielders could see the ball. So they sent
15:28
Speaker 3: like outfielders out and they hit fungos hits in the
15:31
Speaker 3: outfield to the outfielders to see if they could see
15:34
Speaker 3: the ball. And then like it was weird because like
15:38
Speaker 3: the Brewers did it with their coach Duffy Dyer or
15:40
Speaker 3: somebody went out and hit some some flyballs. But then
15:42
Speaker 3: the White Sox had to send their guys out and
15:44
Speaker 3: had their own fungo guy because they didn't trust I
15:46
Speaker 3: guess the Brewers.
15:47
Speaker 6: Magine guy, imagine the pressure of being the fungal and
15:50
Speaker 6: that was rounders. You get pressure fly balls three hundred
15:54
Speaker 6: and then yeah, and then.
15:56
Speaker 3: There was there was talk about whether they keep going
15:58
Speaker 3: or whether in the wind picked up and yeah, it was.
16:01
Speaker 3: It was pea soup fog. And that was one of
16:03
Speaker 3: those weird deals. And another thing that we take for
16:05
Speaker 3: granted now that we have an indoor stadium, so they
16:07
Speaker 3: have the option, and I'll be fascinated to see what
16:10
Speaker 3: the mechanics are and what the logistics are. Do we
16:13
Speaker 3: close the roof, does it help or does it trap
16:15
Speaker 3: smoke inside? Like you said, that's a good analogy because
16:17
Speaker 3: when the roof is closed and they let fireworks off,
16:19
Speaker 3: it tends to stay there. Even on warm, muggy nights
16:22
Speaker 3: without much wind. You get a haze from the fireworks. Yeah,
16:25
Speaker 3: and you can definitely. It's definitely. It's palpable, so it
16:28
Speaker 3: doesn't actually go away.
16:29
Speaker 6: I mean, you know that it's gonna happen, but there
16:31
Speaker 6: are times, well, what do you remember in Super Bowl
16:35
Speaker 6: thirty one when the Packers obviously Patriots the halftime show
16:38
Speaker 6: with like the Blues Brothers and whoever it was, and
16:41
Speaker 6: even in the halftime show, the smoke was lingering from
16:44
Speaker 6: uch of the third quarter. I remember Madden in summer
16:46
Speaker 6: all kept commenting on it because some of the events
16:48
Speaker 6: were covered up by banners, and I don't know, it's
16:51
Speaker 6: one of those things we just take for granted. It's
16:53
Speaker 6: good air quality, and maybe that's a good lesson for
16:56
Speaker 6: all of us, as we shouldn't. But to not to
17:00
Speaker 6: feel like you need fresh air and to not be
17:02
Speaker 6: able to go outside and get it, it's sort of
17:05
Speaker 6: a weird feeling and you're like, oh wait, I feel trapped,
17:07
Speaker 6: and that's scary kind of you know. So hopefully this
17:11
Speaker 6: hopefully we get some action in the wind and the
17:13
Speaker 6: rain and all kinds of stuff, and we can get
17:16
Speaker 6: this stuff moving through soon, because it doesn't seem like
17:19
Speaker 6: anyone has a problem to.
17:19
Speaker 3: Stop these fires. This tickle in the back of my
17:22
Speaker 3: throat man. Just we're playing hurt well Soldier on Billy
17:26
Speaker 3: schmid is off. Today, We're gonna keep bringing it to you.
17:30
Speaker 3: Friday's hit different on the huddle. Today we'll have a
17:33
Speaker 3: guest appearance by Hunter Bombguard. He worked last night.
17:36
Speaker 1: He's back.
17:36
Speaker 3: He did a Baseball on Milwaukee's Baseball tonight last night
17:39
Speaker 3: to get us ready and went through some of the
17:41
Speaker 3: great moments of the first half. Maybe we can get
17:42
Speaker 3: Hunter to revisit some of those with us when he
17:45
Speaker 3: joins us at seven twenty seven to twenty five ish,
17:49
Speaker 3: and we'll talk to him about what lies ahead for
17:51
Speaker 3: the Brewers. They've made the first move of I think
17:53
Speaker 3: several Lance mccullors joining the club. They'll be around today
17:56
Speaker 3: and be interviewed. I'm sure Giannis made his day view
18:01
Speaker 3: in Miami. We'll talk about that his I thought it
18:05
Speaker 3: was interesting. He gave the rationale for his new number.
18:07
Speaker 3: There's a lot.
18:08
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot to unpacked. There a lot
18:09
Speaker 1: to go.
18:10
Speaker 6: This might be my coping, but I I sensed a
18:13
Speaker 6: certain emotion from.
18:13
Speaker 3: You, honest. Yeah, and I'd say melancholy. That Eric name
18:18
Speaker 3: from the Athletic was there.
18:19
Speaker 6: Yes, Eric covered it. Yeah, so the chagrin of some
18:22
Speaker 6: Bucks fans at the also pushback.
18:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's come on. I mean here, he should be
18:26
Speaker 1: at the Summer League.
18:27
Speaker 3: Come on, because you're like twelve year olds coping on
18:30
Speaker 3: Twitter and that's what it seems like. Yeah whatever, Yeah,
18:32
Speaker 3: people just don't understand what what's going on.
18:34
Speaker 1: Understanding then the news value. Right, So if you want
18:38
Speaker 1: to reach out to us, we appreciate you. Check in.
18:41
Speaker 3: Just say hi, eight seven seven seven, nine four one
18:43
Speaker 3: nine seventy. How smokey is it by you today? You know,
18:46
Speaker 3: I'd like to hear how that is going. And what
18:49
Speaker 3: do you think you're voting? Roof open, roofs close? We're
18:51
Speaker 3: just we're all guessing right now. I have no idea
18:54
Speaker 3: what they're going to do. I might be better to
18:56
Speaker 3: leave it open and get air moving. I'm not sure.
18:58
Speaker 1: If they know.
19:00
Speaker 3: That's a good question. Yeah, we'll all find out together,
19:03
Speaker 3: all right, Off and running. It is the Friday edition
19:06
Speaker 3: of The Huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
19:12
Speaker 1: Why what does that number change represent to you?
19:18
Speaker 3: Okay?
19:19
Speaker 4: I worked thirty four because my mom was born night
19:22
Speaker 4: sixty three, my dad was born night sixty four, So
19:25
Speaker 4: I took the three and four and if you had
19:28
Speaker 4: three and four, it was seven. And my my mom
19:33
Speaker 4: was born April seventh. That's why the reason I changed
19:37
Speaker 4: my number. But I think the thing that I the
19:42
Speaker 4: reason that I really changed my number is because I
19:45
Speaker 4: feel like, you know, thirty four hosts so much weight
19:49
Speaker 4: and has so much history and out of the you know,
19:52
Speaker 4: respect to you know, the organization that drafted me and
19:55
Speaker 4: I played for for thirteen years. I decided to leave
19:58
Speaker 4: that number there and try to start the new chapter.
20:02
Speaker 4: Hopefully I can leave my market here in Miami and
20:05
Speaker 4: make number seven as legend area's number thirty four. But
20:11
Speaker 4: it's almost like kind of having a closure for me
20:16
Speaker 4: mentally and emotionally, just to have a closure from that number,
20:20
Speaker 4: because it meant a lot to me. And number seven
20:23
Speaker 4: looks good, it's fresh, it's clean. I saw some kids
20:26
Speaker 4: wenning it in the street. So I'm excited to create
20:29
Speaker 4: more moments with that number.
20:33
Speaker 1: That's the honest.
20:34
Speaker 3: From his introductory press conference in Miami, Drew and Arma
20:39
Speaker 3: bringing to the Hull Fox Sports Radio wiscons To nine
20:41
Speaker 3: twenty Milwaukee, ten seventy Madison worldwide on the iHeartRadio app,
20:44
Speaker 3: streaming live, Facebook, x and YouTube, for all the early
20:47
Speaker 3: risers in SOMNIAX Sociopaths.
20:49
Speaker 1: We'll get into the health club early and five o'clock
20:52
Speaker 1: club members. Arman. I know when I heard that, I'm like, oh,
20:55
Speaker 1: that's going to hit Armin in the fields. Yeah, it
20:57
Speaker 1: did a little bit.
20:58
Speaker 3: Thirty four as his Milwaukee after and he wants to
21:00
Speaker 3: leave that for Milwaukee and not go on and wear
21:03
Speaker 3: the same number. Now, Aaron Rodgers left Green Bay and
21:06
Speaker 3: never wore twelve again. Yeah, but that was all that's
21:08
Speaker 3: because it was retired retire cities. It was retired in
21:11
Speaker 3: Bull City. So I'm not sure if you would have
21:13
Speaker 3: done that or not. What if Giannis had dropped a
21:16
Speaker 3: you know, out of respect to Ray Allen and his
21:18
Speaker 3: legacy with the Heat.
21:21
Speaker 6: Well, that would have been a little more hollow for
21:22
Speaker 6: me because then you would have never won thirty four
21:24
Speaker 6: in Milwaukee, right, because thirty four in Milwaukee was something
21:28
Speaker 6: he probably requested and they just gave him.
21:30
Speaker 3: But he probably didn't was not never aware of what was.
21:33
Speaker 6: Going on with the Bucks or Ray Allen at all
21:34
Speaker 6: when he came here, So I think he just picked that.
21:37
Speaker 6: But if they told him, listen, we can't give you
21:39
Speaker 6: thirty four he would have picked something else.
21:40
Speaker 3: The Bucks issued thirty four though, because they traded ray
21:43
Speaker 3: Allen George Carl maneuver that and yeah, it was okay,
21:46
Speaker 3: one of the big blunders in franchise history.
21:49
Speaker 1: It was.
21:49
Speaker 3: It was maybe they wanted to get people forgetting about that.
21:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, it works, so they traded him.
21:55
Speaker 3: So they didn't feel like there was any special pull
21:58
Speaker 3: to that number, which a uniform numb an interesting topic.
22:01
Speaker 3: It always is like I don't pay a lot of
22:02
Speaker 3: attention to it. But the Brewers never retired Jim Gantner's
22:05
Speaker 3: number seventeen. Yes, they haven't issued.
22:07
Speaker 6: Haven't issued it, right, And how they decided retire numbers
22:11
Speaker 6: is kind of specific, right.
22:12
Speaker 3: Yes, And then you know, what would the Brewers do
22:15
Speaker 3: with number eight, Ryan bron.
22:18
Speaker 1: That's a good question because.
22:19
Speaker 3: Kind of hold on to that one because he's in
22:21
Speaker 3: the discussion. They've they made the decision on Ganner that
22:23
Speaker 3: they're not going to retire his number, and I think
22:25
Speaker 3: that's kind of appropriate actually, because if they wanted to
22:28
Speaker 3: keep the standard of being Hall of famers, right.
22:31
Speaker 6: So, but there are guys that were Brewer Hall of Famers,
22:34
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, hall of famers that played with the Brewers
22:36
Speaker 6: significantly that didn't that aren't retired.
22:39
Speaker 1: What you'd understand.
22:41
Speaker 3: But then some people kind of sign on l Sutton
22:43
Speaker 3: or well Don now, Dave, I mean there are other
22:45
Speaker 3: guys you I don't think anyone said rosaying Don Sutton
22:48
Speaker 3: should be retired as a brewer. But no, no, but
22:50
Speaker 3: you know, yeah, but so Raleigh was. But Raleigh that
22:55
Speaker 3: was a special case. And you did have an MVP
22:57
Speaker 3: or he was an MVP so young like and that
23:02
Speaker 3: was back in the days when they'd have that ceremony
23:04
Speaker 3: to sell tickets.
23:05
Speaker 6: Well, that was what Crean was doing with Marquete for
23:08
Speaker 6: a while, was starting to get put up a lot
23:10
Speaker 6: more numbers to try and embrace tradition more get people excited.
23:13
Speaker 6: And there was a stretch of like five years when
23:15
Speaker 6: he put up a bunch of numbers Earl Tatum, Maurice Lucas,
23:18
Speaker 6: which all deserved.
23:20
Speaker 1: Don't get me.
23:20
Speaker 6: Wrong, But so everyone's philosophy, a number of retirements are
23:24
Speaker 6: as interesting. It's different, and it's always debated, Drew, And
23:27
Speaker 6: I know some people would say, well, a guy like
23:30
Speaker 6: Ryan Brown had more of an impact in the Brewers,
23:32
Speaker 6: a guy like Jim Ganner had more of an impact
23:35
Speaker 6: or I don't know about it, maybe Cecil Cooper, for instance,
23:37
Speaker 6: but those numbers aren't up. But it is an interesting
23:40
Speaker 6: topic right when he starts just to think about numbers,
23:42
Speaker 6: and then we think about what Yanna said about thirty four.
23:45
Speaker 6: I appreciated that that was nice that he that he
23:48
Speaker 6: mentioned that. I also thinking he mentioned it, and I
23:52
Speaker 6: think it's kind of a window into his soul that
23:53
Speaker 6: he said. It helps my own emotional closure. I think
23:56
Speaker 6: he needs it because I saw the pain in his
23:58
Speaker 6: eyes yesterday and a lot people are gonna say, oh,
24:00
Speaker 6: arm and you're just coping, and maybe that's true, but
24:03
Speaker 6: I don't know. It just seemed pretty obvious to me.
24:05
Speaker 6: It was like kind of a sad reality for him
24:07
Speaker 6: that he was actually gonna be in a different uniform
24:09
Speaker 6: other than the Bucks, which is okay, and and I
24:12
Speaker 6: think it's natural, and I think maybe he'll get over
24:14
Speaker 6: that at some point and start getting used to his
24:16
Speaker 6: new home, but I don't know.
24:18
Speaker 3: I saw a little sadness in his eyes when he
24:20
Speaker 3: regularly referenced the Bucks in Milwaukee. I think that was
24:23
Speaker 3: a big part of it. When he changed the number
24:25
Speaker 3: and the closure. One of the interesting things that came
24:29
Speaker 3: out of yesterday. I don't know if you cut this arm,
24:31
Speaker 3: and like pat Riley said, he misspoke, but he said
24:34
Speaker 3: the deal was agreed to. He said July twenty third.
24:37
Speaker 3: He meant June twenty third, and it didn't pop until
24:40
Speaker 3: like July sixth, I think.
24:42
Speaker 6: Yeah, So basically it popped on July sn it popped
24:46
Speaker 6: before that. It was official only six but we knew
24:50
Speaker 6: about it before that.
24:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was agreed to on the twenty third,
24:53
Speaker 3: I guess yeah, and then it popped it. But he
24:55
Speaker 3: couldn't talk to you honest right away, right, couldn't til
24:58
Speaker 3: it's like official, right.
24:59
Speaker 1: There's there, there's some rules, there's all the legalities and
25:01
Speaker 1: all that. They talked through agents and things like that.
25:04
Speaker 6: He also said he wanted to land another plane, and
25:06
Speaker 6: that was the Lebron plane. So I was also curious
25:09
Speaker 6: how much Jannis enjoyed his introductory pressor being dominated by
25:14
Speaker 6: Lebron talks.
25:15
Speaker 3: Well, it was also funny that they didn't have Jiannis
25:18
Speaker 3: and Bob Bob together. A lot of times you acquired
25:20
Speaker 3: two guys, it's one presser two for one. They're both
25:22
Speaker 3: up there. He asked questions. Now they did them separately,
25:24
Speaker 3: which was interesting.
25:25
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was talking to Hunter about that yesterday because
25:27
Speaker 6: when Hunter was here, we were both here, and I said,
25:30
Speaker 6: you know, Hunter, they're gonna have the introductory pressor today
25:34
Speaker 6: because of the initial report was Giannis and Bobby will
25:36
Speaker 6: be introduced Thursday, so I assumed they were together, and
25:38
Speaker 6: he goes, Bobby's going now, I'm like, did we miss something?
25:41
Speaker 6: But I guess they wanted it to be separate, and
25:44
Speaker 6: Bobby had the suit on and said he's a hetel.
25:46
Speaker 1: And I said this to yesterday and.
25:48
Speaker 6: Twitter, and I don't know how people because they know
25:50
Speaker 6: I just started the account again, and I think it's true.
25:52
Speaker 6: I said it was clearly hitting Bucks fans in the
25:54
Speaker 6: fields when they saw these things, and they saw them
25:56
Speaker 6: both say things, and they saw Bobby saying I'm ready
25:58
Speaker 6: to be a hetel. I said, you guys, they got
26:00
Speaker 6: to pander their new bosses and their new fans, So
26:02
Speaker 6: don't don't take this stuff too seriously. Deep down, these
26:05
Speaker 6: guys felt the connection to Milwaukee and this is just
26:08
Speaker 6: what you got to do. But I think Bucks fans
26:11
Speaker 6: were starting to take it hard yesterday, which I totally
26:13
Speaker 6: get to say. Like Bobby, I thought. You said you
26:15
Speaker 6: found a home in Milwaukee and you never was happy here,
26:18
Speaker 6: So how can you say you gotta do it? I mean,
26:20
Speaker 6: this is what you gotta do when you're introduced with
26:21
Speaker 6: a new team. Is your new bosses, is your new fans.
26:24
Speaker 6: It is what it is. Don't take it too too
26:27
Speaker 6: much to heart, you know, does that make sense? I
26:29
Speaker 6: don't good advice, It's all. This is all emotional coping
26:32
Speaker 6: we're going through as fans. You know, we were talking
26:36
Speaker 6: a little bit about how I saw some Bucks fans
26:38
Speaker 6: on Twitter lashing out at poor Eric name, which was unnecessary,
26:41
Speaker 6: just because he might uncovered a newsworthy event.
26:44
Speaker 3: And what's he doing like put him on the heat beats,
26:46
Speaker 3: let him stay in Miami.
26:47
Speaker 6: He is just coping from kids who don't realize that
26:49
Speaker 6: journalism is not about being a fan. Yeah, I mean,
26:51
Speaker 6: but this is one of the biggest debates now in
26:53
Speaker 6: our business.
26:53
Speaker 1: As you know.
26:54
Speaker 3: You know, I will say this, and I don't. I've
26:58
Speaker 3: been doing this for a long time and you are
27:00
Speaker 3: a long long better not a not a fan per se, right,
27:04
Speaker 3: And I but I understand the psychology of it. But
27:06
Speaker 3: to say that, like, do you really think that in
27:09
Speaker 3: terms of like news judgment that what happens like the Bucks,
27:13
Speaker 3: I don't even know if they play in the summerleague
27:15
Speaker 3: es or I think they probably practiced or something. But
27:16
Speaker 3: it's like anything that happens in the summer league is
27:19
Speaker 3: more important than Janice's first the farewell. I'm i applaud
27:23
Speaker 3: outlets because I don't think the Journal Sentinel went.
27:25
Speaker 1: Jim Ozarski didn't go.
27:26
Speaker 3: It's like because they don't know the budgets have been
27:28
Speaker 3: slashed and they they.
27:30
Speaker 6: Used to be you would do stuff like that, and
27:31
Speaker 6: it's clearly interestsworthy.
27:35
Speaker 3: And it's the first one. It's not like he's gonna
27:37
Speaker 3: it's not like we're gonna get in this market. It
27:40
Speaker 3: you know, if Janna scores forty or something or you know,
27:42
Speaker 3: triple doubles, like you'll hear about it and they might
27:45
Speaker 3: sprinkle in a heat reference where they wouldn't have in
27:47
Speaker 3: the past. Right, but this his first time and he's
27:52
Speaker 3: talking about Milwaukee and his time in Milwaukee. You're damn right,
27:55
Speaker 3: that's newsworthy. It's more newsworthy than anything happens in the
27:57
Speaker 3: flip in summer league.
27:58
Speaker 6: Right, But there, it's like it's not even close there
28:01
Speaker 6: are so many fans now that will look at it
28:03
Speaker 6: like he's you're scoring lover, You're a trader for even
28:07
Speaker 6: caring about him because he cheated on us, like like you.
28:10
Speaker 1: Should be going.
28:11
Speaker 6: But even coaches now will say like to get mad
28:13
Speaker 6: at beat writers saying to think they should be a
28:15
Speaker 6: fan of the team and things like that, I should
28:16
Speaker 6: just support us. Well that's idiotic, no, it is, but
28:19
Speaker 6: it also reflects a change. I agree with you, Drew.
28:21
Speaker 6: I want you to know that. I mean, I went
28:22
Speaker 6: to Jay School twenty years ago. But it reflects a
28:25
Speaker 6: change and how people look at these things. They want
28:28
Speaker 6: fans now to be the podcasters and the voices of
28:30
Speaker 6: the team and things like that. So it's a deeper debate.
28:32
Speaker 6: There go, Pat go one thousand. You're honest, look very sad,
28:35
Speaker 6: very obvious, look like a sad puppy. Yeah, I just
28:39
Speaker 6: I guess I sensed the same thing yesterday. And I
28:41
Speaker 6: know the heat fans found my mentions and said, you know,
28:44
Speaker 6: you're just salty and things like that. I don't know,
28:46
Speaker 6: maybe you're right, but I don't know. This is something
28:48
Speaker 6: I noticed. But yeah, I didn't like the way people
28:50
Speaker 6: were going after name either, and there's no question what
28:52
Speaker 6: happened yesterday it was one hundred thousand times more newsworthy
28:55
Speaker 6: than whatever happened the summer week, even though it surprised
28:58
Speaker 6: me the last couple weeks how much people paid attention
29:01
Speaker 6: and put stock into Summer League results. I don't remember
29:03
Speaker 6: ever growing up thinking about caring about Summer League, and
29:06
Speaker 6: I was a huge fan. I still am obviously huge
29:09
Speaker 6: Bucks fan, but I didn't put any stock into it
29:11
Speaker 6: because I knew these games were less than preseason.
29:13
Speaker 1: They didn't even count at all.
29:15
Speaker 6: So like the way people were jumping on night Amen's
29:18
Speaker 6: and I'm like, this is summer League.
29:20
Speaker 1: There's zero indication of what might be happening.
29:23
Speaker 6: I mean, Rashaan Vaughan scored twenty five a game in
29:26
Speaker 6: Summer League, like relax, So sorry, I know I went
29:29
Speaker 6: off on some tangents there, drew, but kind of dumping
29:31
Speaker 6: my bucket on thoughts on you.
29:33
Speaker 3: No, that's what the show is for, and you can
29:34
Speaker 3: dump yours at eight seven, seven, seven, nine to four
29:37
Speaker 3: one ninety seven three. The number thing was interesting, the
29:41
Speaker 3: video of him finding his locker, like before he got
29:44
Speaker 3: to South Beach and he got to the complex and
29:46
Speaker 3: everything and he had to have a brief hard workout
29:50
Speaker 3: before he went the press, which was interesting. Yeah, I
29:52
Speaker 3: think that was good for the social media teams and stuff.
29:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that kind of tells it. And that's the way.
29:57
Speaker 3: And you know, no one's gonna question the honest's work
29:59
Speaker 3: at the no way, Andy.
30:02
Speaker 1: And it's so is Heat culture.
30:04
Speaker 3: So that's what makes this such a fit, right, is
30:06
Speaker 3: like the Heat everybody does. Jimmy Butler going back and
30:10
Speaker 3: like they have this Heat culture now he.
30:12
Speaker 1: Said he was curious about the culture and everything like that.
30:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's like there it's well established reputation in
30:17
Speaker 3: the league that the Heat are known for working harder.
30:21
Speaker 3: And you know though they live surrounded by temptation and
30:25
Speaker 3: nice weather and Miami clubs.
30:27
Speaker 6: And they live and that laps of luxury, but the Thongs,
30:31
Speaker 6: but they like to tell themselves right that they that they're.
30:33
Speaker 1: All but they're all about it. Yeah. It was interesting though.
30:36
Speaker 3: So Bobby got some run and Riley called him the
30:39
Speaker 3: prototypical power forward and everything, and then Spolster talked about
30:43
Speaker 3: how they always hated that Bobby Bobby, like we hated
30:47
Speaker 3: here in that but we loved his intensity and stuff.
30:49
Speaker 3: But we hated that chant when Bucks fans would do that. Absolutely,
30:53
Speaker 3: that's funny. I get that.
30:55
Speaker 6: I think from the outside looking in, you'd say, boy,
30:58
Speaker 6: Bobby's a great piece, energy and shoot, can can can
31:01
Speaker 6: bring the edge, although I don't think defense was a
31:04
Speaker 6: strong suit, which I think is funny about that.
31:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that you could. I mean, that's what the basketball.
31:09
Speaker 1: They've had players like that before, you know what.
31:11
Speaker 6: Though, I don't think and he said prototypical four, I didn't.
31:14
Speaker 6: I don't think of him that way either. But necessarily
31:17
Speaker 6: he's to throw into that. We all know the situation,
31:19
Speaker 6: you know.
31:20
Speaker 3: So, yeah, it's gonna be interesting now the other shoe
31:23
Speaker 3: and they kind of left the door open that they're
31:25
Speaker 3: pursuing Lebron.
31:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of answer questions.
31:28
Speaker 3: Lebron did his first availability and he's still kind of
31:30
Speaker 3: toying and not close to committing yet. But he was
31:34
Speaker 3: like asking the crowd at this fanatics thing. He's like,
31:36
Speaker 3: you know, where should go? And then people are you.
31:38
Speaker 3: I hear Warriors, I hear Sixers, I hear this. Now
31:41
Speaker 3: here's the thing. Can Lebron do another decision? I don't
31:45
Speaker 3: know that was I don't think he'll do another decision.
31:47
Speaker 3: But if Lebron signs anywhere but Cleveland, it'll break with
31:51
Speaker 3: a sham's report.
31:53
Speaker 1: If he goes back to Cleveland, Lebron will release. So
31:56
Speaker 1: that's that's a good point.
31:57
Speaker 3: I think that's my serious because he can't do that
31:59
Speaker 3: to Cleveland because their hopes are up.
32:01
Speaker 1: You know.
32:02
Speaker 6: He Obviously I don't dislike Lebron, A lot of people do.
32:05
Speaker 6: I respect everything, but obviously ego is a big part
32:08
Speaker 6: of what he does. It's Hubert's He likes having attention
32:10
Speaker 6: on him.
32:11
Speaker 3: It is what it is.
32:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is kind of part of that.
32:13
Speaker 6: Again, he's doing like the I'm Gonna Keep you Guessing.
32:16
Speaker 3: Tour because he didn't go to college and get to
32:18
Speaker 3: sit in front of the hats and pick a hat
32:20
Speaker 3: and put it on and pretend to put one on
32:21
Speaker 3: and do the fake.
32:22
Speaker 6: You know, he knows the decision was bad for his image,
32:25
Speaker 6: but I think he'd like it to be that. He'd
32:27
Speaker 6: like to do that again. But so this is that
32:29
Speaker 6: version of it true kind of like peeping.
32:31
Speaker 3: Everybody in Limbo going on the So he was I don't.
32:34
Speaker 6: Know how he got it. Tyrese Haliburton got him on
32:37
Speaker 6: the podcast. So this was the Mind the Game podcast
32:41
Speaker 6: he went on at at this Fanatics fest, which is
32:45
Speaker 6: like a sports lifestyle FESTI well, I guess I didn't
32:47
Speaker 6: know about it. But he went to this fanatics fest
32:49
Speaker 6: and went on this mind in the Game podcast and
32:51
Speaker 6: that's where Haliburton started talking to him.
32:54
Speaker 3: Why Tyre's Halliburton? Why that podcast?
32:56
Speaker 1: I don't know?
32:57
Speaker 6: Was he did he get paid to go on there?
32:59
Speaker 6: Was he contractually obligated? Is it a Rich Paul thing?
33:02
Speaker 6: It doesn't make any sense to me why that would
33:04
Speaker 6: be the one he'd start to talk to.
33:05
Speaker 2: Now.
33:05
Speaker 6: He didn't reveal anything, so he didn't bite when they
33:08
Speaker 6: when they when Hallie tried to ask him and things
33:11
Speaker 6: like that, he listen. He clearly enjoys this and it
33:14
Speaker 6: is what it is. I mean, it's a little hubrisk,
33:16
Speaker 6: but hey whatever.
33:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know.
33:18
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven seven nine four seven three, get you
33:21
Speaker 1: in and.
33:23
Speaker 6: Uh, we might be looking at him doing this in
33:25
Speaker 6: like thirty years for retirement homes from.
33:28
Speaker 1: The sixth of eight. Did you guys see you?
33:29
Speaker 3: Honest was at the Argentina England game flashed on the broadcast. Yeah,

33:41
Speaker 3: I can't begrudge him for that. I would go five tickets.
33:45
Speaker 3: Everyone's like, oh, he's you know, he's sitting with the glitterati.
33:48
Speaker 6: Now I'm like, hey, I would go to that. I
33:50
Speaker 6: don't think that's Yeah, he was there. He's enjoyed a
33:53
Speaker 6: lot of stuff this summery. I saw him in an
33:54
Speaker 6: F one race. I think so he's he's making the rounds,
33:59
Speaker 6: enjoying his life. I don't begrudge that man at all.
34:02
Speaker 6: I know some people are want I think they cope
34:04
Speaker 6: better by by trying to feign some anger at him.
34:07
Speaker 6: And people are still tweet ed me saying he's a liar,
34:09
Speaker 6: he's a trader.
34:10
Speaker 3: I saw he mentioned the.
34:11
Speaker 6: Kids yesterday in Miami that he uh ate Oreos for
34:14

34:37
Speaker 3: slide into that next year.
34:38
Speaker 1: And by the way, we know when that's gonna be.
34:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, because the Brewers put out their schedule yesterday.
34:42
Speaker 6: It's so random MLB unlike anyone else releasing their schedule
34:46

34:49
Speaker 6: everybody else.
34:50
Speaker 3: Does it make your plans? I dig it, I'm here

36:49

Speaker 3: Milwaukee wanted to be a Kappa Good morning fellas.
36:54
Speaker 6: Just wanted to apologize Arming for going a little hard
36:57
Speaker 6: on him for his golfing take yesterday. It probably stepped
37:00
Speaker 6: from not being a golfer.
37:01
Speaker 1: So I get it.
37:01
Speaker 6: Let's start another win streak for the Brewers tonight, Jeffrey.
37:04
Speaker 6: It's okay, man, Jeffrey, I was.
37:05
Speaker 1: I was attacking Army for that take too.
37:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's okay, buddy. I appreciate it. I helpe it didn't.
37:09
Speaker 3: Body basically said, what's the big deal about playing big courses?
37:12
Speaker 1: It's just grass and trees.
37:14
Speaker 6: I still believe it, but okay, we deify grass, trees
37:17
Speaker 6: and water.
37:19
Speaker 1: There are certain venues that are special. What's the difference.
37:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, well what's the difference between you know, cut
37:25
Speaker 3: a hay Stadium where the Packers play in lambeau Field,
37:27
Speaker 3: where the Packers play.
37:28
Speaker 1: It's one hundred yards of grass, big deal. Yeah that's
37:31
Speaker 1: not that's equivalent for sure. Not okay, Well, just.
37:34
Speaker 3: Like you with the golf courses, I know what your
37:37
Speaker 3: You're cut your own argument.
37:39
Speaker 1: One's not a venue. One's just nature. Now, I guess
37:41
Speaker 1: it is a venue.
37:42
Speaker 3: You have to cut. There's holes designed there are it's
37:46
Speaker 3: a venue. The golf courses that there's thought that goes
37:48
Speaker 3: into the design of golf courses and trees that make
37:51
Speaker 3: it majestics and make it special, and each one is unique.
37:55
Speaker 3: There's nothing the same about two golf Okay, I get it.
37:58
Speaker 3: When I got when I got literally of percent disagreement,
38:01
Speaker 3: I get it.
38:01
Speaker 1: I still I still kind.
38:02
Speaker 3: Of It was one of the worst takes a well,
38:05
Speaker 3: I guess it was there.
38:06
Speaker 6: I guess I'll have to hold it. But Jeffrey, don't
38:08
Speaker 6: feel bad. I mean, I don't want you to feel bad.
38:10
Speaker 6: I appreciate me a kalpa. You can come at me
38:12
Speaker 6: for the take.
38:13
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't care.
38:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fine.
38:15
Speaker 6: Jason the Electrician Drew, Good morning Fellas talking point Brewers
38:19
Speaker 6: versus Miami.
38:20
Speaker 1: All right, what's the talking about.
38:21
Speaker 6: Giannis is an owner of the Brewers and now a
38:23
Speaker 6: player in the Heat might be a lost promo opportunity.
38:26
Speaker 3: I think the last thing Jannis is thinking about right
38:28
Speaker 3: now is the Marlins today. I mean, I'm sure he's
38:31
Speaker 3: happy with the investment.
38:33
Speaker 1: I mean I'm sure it's gonna.
38:34
Speaker 3: I mean, maybe he'll invest in the Marlins or you know,
38:37
Speaker 3: will people be mad if he wears a Marlins Juralis
38:39
Speaker 3: jersey to a Marlins game.
38:40
Speaker 6: He's gonna throw on a first pitch at some point, right,
38:42
Speaker 6: you would think, So, why would I be Why would
38:44
Speaker 6: anybody be mad about that? Because they're gonna guest. But like, yeah,
38:48
Speaker 6: I guess if you haven't. I think people overthink the
38:50
Speaker 6: owner thing. It's just an investment. I think, like his
38:53
Speaker 6: hundreds of other investments he has.
38:54
Speaker 3: Heat games are the sexy thing to attend in Miami
38:58
Speaker 3: Marlins game, right, nobody would be there.
39:00
Speaker 6: Yeah, So I could see him going to a Dolphins
39:02
Speaker 6: game maybe, I mean.
39:03
Speaker 1: That's pretty yeah, stand on the sidelines. I guess he'll
39:05
Speaker 1: do all of it. I would assume he wants to
39:07
Speaker 1: be part of the new Yeah, we'll see, We'll see.
39:09
Speaker 3: Now. We talked about Gianness's quotes at his presser, and
39:12
Speaker 3: one of the things. He said, quote, after all this
39:15
Speaker 3: took place, I feel like they're in a good place.
39:17
Speaker 3: Referring to the Bucks, I feel like they're in a
39:19
Speaker 3: good place. I'm in a good place. I have so
39:20
Speaker 3: much respect for them. I hope they have respect for
39:23
Speaker 3: me and for the things I've done in that city.
39:25
Speaker 1: He's still thinking about it, but getting.
39:27
Speaker 3: A phone call from mister pat Riley, mister Jim, mister
39:30
Speaker 3: pat Jim Paski, pat Riley, mister Patt. He gave me
39:34
Speaker 3: a lot of closure. I was like, Okay, now it's
39:36
Speaker 3: a new beginning. Okay. I guess I think he's still
39:39
Speaker 3: trying to convince himself in that, but be honest. Also
39:43
Speaker 3: said he revealed what he said to pat Riley about
39:45
Speaker 3: what lies ahead. He said quote, I was being a
39:47
Speaker 3: little bit vulnerable with him. I was like, I know,
39:50
Speaker 3: you guys think I'm this big, tough beast, but at
39:52
Speaker 3: the end of the day, I'm human. I have my emotions,
39:54
Speaker 3: and I was like, I'm scared. I'm kind of scared.
39:56
Speaker 3: This is different. But we had the conversation. I told him,
40:00
Speaker 3: I'm excited. I'm going to work hard. I'm going to
40:01
Speaker 3: do whatever I can for the team to respect me
40:04
Speaker 3: and for your guys culture and history, and hopefully I
40:06
Speaker 3: can leave a mark here.
40:08
Speaker 6: And I appreciate him being so vulnerable about it, and
40:10
Speaker 6: he's told Jim Pashki, some people are in my position
40:13
Speaker 6: are afraid for that.
40:14
Speaker 1: He's not afraid.
40:14
Speaker 6: So I appreciate him talking about it because I told
40:17
Speaker 6: you that interview was important for our closure. But the
40:20
Speaker 6: reality is, I think the only place he's gonna find
40:21
Speaker 6: comfort is once he starts playing basketball. I think he
40:24
Speaker 6: knows that, and that's why he keeps referring to it.
40:25
Speaker 6: And that's totally understandable because I think he knows. Okay,
40:29
Speaker 6: you know what, there's an insecurity about going to a
40:31
Speaker 6: new place and not knowing that people are going to
40:33
Speaker 6: how they're going to feel about you, if they're gonna
40:34
Speaker 6: get criticized. But he said, I think he knows deep down,
40:37
Speaker 6: if I give him the same effort and the same
40:38
Speaker 6: intensity that I gave him Milwaukee, that's how I'll make
40:41
Speaker 6: people respect me. That's right here on the basketball court,
40:43
Speaker 6: not in the school hallways, you know.
40:45
Speaker 1: And yoh, honest.
40:47
Speaker 3: There were many press conferences in Milwaukee that he won famously,
40:50
Speaker 3: the one about failure like the one Dad jokes.
40:54
Speaker 1: You know, it's just like a lot of honesty.
40:57
Speaker 3: He said yesterday, quote, I just want to be coached hard.
41:00
Speaker 3: I'd rather you tell me an ugly truth than a
41:01
Speaker 3: beautiful lie. I feel like the moment I'm coached hard,
41:04
Speaker 3: everyone else is going to follow. I need the truth.
41:06
Speaker 3: I need the right feedback so I can be able
41:08
Speaker 3: to apply that to my life in the game of basketball.
41:10
Speaker 1: I'm excited to be coached by Eric Spolstra.
41:13
Speaker 6: Was there a subtext there wasn't coached that way by Doc?
41:16
Speaker 6: Wasn't getting the truth from the Bucks organization?
41:18
Speaker 3: At the end, again, regarding Spolster, he said, I've had
41:20
Speaker 3: conversations with people that I trust about him and his
41:22
Speaker 3: approach to the game, and they've told me he's a workaholic.
41:24
Speaker 3: He doesn't leave the gym. He really loves this. He's
41:26
Speaker 3: dedicated to his craft. He's really good at ex's and o's.
41:29
Speaker 3: I'm excited to be coached by him. I was excited
41:31
Speaker 3: to be here, and I know he's going to get
41:33
Speaker 3: the best out of me. But I need him to
41:34
Speaker 3: push me and to tell me the truth.
41:36
Speaker 1: Now. One of the people he consulted was a PJ.
41:39
Speaker 3: Tucker.
41:41
Speaker 6: Maybe good question. Yeah, maybe I think that's probably proven.
41:44
Speaker 6: I think we can respect Spaul in that way. Yeah,
41:46
Speaker 6: he's won the titles, so I think, Yeah, I think spolsters.
41:48
Speaker 6: A lot of people say, oh, he's a great coach,
41:50
Speaker 6: only when you have superstar players. All right, well, then
41:52
Speaker 6: Phil Jackson wasn't.
41:53
Speaker 1: It's true for everybody to win that win championships.
41:56
Speaker 3: Yeah. Did Mike Brown's coaching ability to change overnight? Yeah, no,
42:00
Speaker 3: players got.
42:01
Speaker 1: To players got better.
42:01
Speaker 6: But I still I believe also Spoel will do the
42:04
Speaker 6: things he wants. I mean, yeah, you honest is the
42:06
Speaker 6: coach's dream most of the time because of the way
42:08
Speaker 6: he wants to work, at least of the teams that way.
42:10
Speaker 3: All right, we're off and running, shooting shirts are off.
42:13
Speaker 3: Dolph's gonna join us at halftime. Coming up at seven
42:15
Speaker 3: twenty five. Got an interesting story about the confluence of
42:20
Speaker 3: baseball and technology. It's not pitching labs. I'm going to
42:24
Speaker 3: talk about that as we move forward. You are in
42:27
Speaker 3: the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin
