  Speaker 6: I want to I don't know if I want to mail, though,
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: I'll find a fresh one this weekend.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: John Jackson, Smith and Jigba.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: Do you notice him around the building as different now
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: that he's one hundred and sixty eight million dollar man
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: as before?
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: Not even a little? I mean, I don't know.
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: Maybe maybe at some point he'll he'll drive a nicer
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: car or something like that, But I.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Kind of car does he by the way, I don't know.
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: I'm sure it's a nice already.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Not that I say he's been he's.
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: Been doing okay, already. But yeah, it's a I mean
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: you've been around him playing.
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: He is just a very low key, chill guy.
• 2:09
  Speaker 6: Who you know, he's he's motivated to be great and
• 2:12
  Speaker 6: he proved last year. I mean, he's talked about his
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: coaches have talked about John Shire's talking about at every level.
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: This guy's played from the biggest stage of Texas football,
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: which is a damn big stage, to Ohio State now
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: the NFL.
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: He's emerged as a very elite talent.
• 2:28
  Speaker 6: And I don't think that drive that's made him that
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: player is going to change one bit now that he
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: happens to be making a ton more money.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Well, okay, so the drive obviously, we've seen how successful
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: he can be and he has not needed to have
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: a chip on his shoulder. But I do have to
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: ask coming off the NFL Honors and all that happened
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: there and then the Offensive Player of the Year trophy,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: and you know he posted, or his brother posted, that
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: was a little bit he posted. Yeah, now it's border disrespect.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Do you think that. Have you noticed a little bit
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: of an extra edge to him or is it just
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: business as usual?
• 3:02
  Speaker 6: You know, I haven't been around him enough to say
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: that you really see that edge, but just basically the
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: fact that he's posting about it and his brother is like, yeah,
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: I do think I mean in the grand scheme of things,
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: like it's not going to ruin his life for any
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: but it does.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: I can see where you take that.
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: All personally, where you win this huge award, they don't
• 3:19
  Speaker 6: air the pre record speech during the show. They go
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: up there and Drew sky Butcher's name on purpose, yep,
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: and then the trophy just sort of allends up to like,
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: what are we doing here, guys, Like this is a
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: huge deal.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: He's one of the best players in the NFL.
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: And they kind of fumbled it at every turn. So
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: you know, I think it's not really going to affect.
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: How he plays day today.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: But we you know, anyone who's been around that slow
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: athletes like any little chip, any perceived light they can use,
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: they'll use. And I'm sure he'll he'll let that, you know,
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: feel him a little bit if he wants to.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: John Boylessehawks dot Com Seahawks team writer joining us in
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: the Beacon Plumbing Hotline talking about Jackson Smith and Jigbow
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: and the Chuck and Bucks shows. One series of profiling
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: Seahawks players. In your opinion, John, would the Seahawks have
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: drafted Jackson Smith and Jig But if not for a
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: three hundred and forty seven yard, fifteen catch, three touchdown
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: day in the Rose Bowl his next to last year
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: at Ohio State.
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: I mean it helps, But yeah, I mean, you don't
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: you know, as you well know, you don't base these.
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: Evaluations on one game.
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: I think you know, there's plenty of tape and information
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: they get from the school that told them he's.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: A great player. But look, it does matter when you show.
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: Up in a big game, on a big stage and
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: come through like that, and that was just an absurd performance.
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: You just read the numbers.
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: I mean, to do that in a high level, high
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: stakes game, is it does show you something when you're
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: a value player like this guy, you know, the moment's
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: not too big for him. He can thrive in it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: So yeah, I mean, they they loved him, and you're
• 4:41
  Speaker 6: going all the way back to that draft. I think
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: they were legitimately very surprised he was still available.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: You know, they used that.
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: First first round pick on Spoon and then you know
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: the draft keeps going on and because of the hamstring injury,
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: I think some teams maybe had some uncertainty and he
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: fell in their lap at you know, twenty and they
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: were just three old to be able to get him
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: that late in the first round.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: How much of Jackson Smith and Jigba is why they
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: traded DK Metcalf this time last year?
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, they probably could not have predicted he would
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: become the AP Offensive Player of the Year and an
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: All Pro and one hundred and sixty eight million dollar
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: guy in that season. But how much was Okay, we
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: have a guy we think can be a featured player
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: who's younger you we could have around for a long time.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: I think that's for sure a part of it.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: You know, as you said, no team can go into
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: a season like, oh, this guy's gonna have seventeen hundred yards.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: That's not realistic. But there, you know, they saw enough
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: two years.
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: Ago out of him when he did lead the team
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: in receiving, even with DK Metcalf there, that I think
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: they recognized he could be the guy.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: He could be the.
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: Number one and he does not have that season last year.
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: If you also have DK Metcalf, like you're it just
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: I don't think the balance works out. That you're gonna
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: be able to keep both those guys happy feeding him
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: the ball to that extent. So you know, there was
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: obviously the element of DK was asking for a trade,
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: and I think, as John Schneider told us a little
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: over a year ago, it's like they want guys who
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: want to be there. So, yes, they could have made
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: DK Metcalf play that out and create an awkward situation,
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: but I think they recognize, Okay, if this guy wants
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: a trade, we have a chance to get some good
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: draft compensation.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: And by the.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: Way, let this young star really emerge and have it
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: be you know, his show. I think that was definitely
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: a factor in it, and it obviously worked out wonderfully
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: where you have this guy emerge as suddenly the top
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: receiver in the NFL.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Is there any part of what we saw from him
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: last year that we can attribute to, you know, more
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: of just the play calling that we saw from Clint
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Kubiak and how could we expect that to change or
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: is there anything any thought that there's a possibility of
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: a step back as they're trying to figure out the
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Brian Fleurry offense.
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I think the offense is going to
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: be similar enough. We've talked to Cooper Cup this week,
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: We've talked to Sam Darnold of that, and like kind
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: of the consensus is, yeah, he's going to have his own,
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: you know, little wrinkles he wants to add in. But
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: this is all you know, comes out of the same
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: Shanahan West Coast tree, you know, all the similar run
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: game concepts. I don't think you're gonna see big changes,
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: if anything. I mean, I I go back to like,
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: you can't predict a seventeen hundred yards season three anybody.
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: I think if you're talking about, is he gonna have
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: a step back in terms of not play as well?
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: I don't see that happen at all.
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: But could it be you know, fourteen seventeen hundred yards, Yeah,
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: that's entirely possible. And some of that too, is I
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: think we're gonna see Rehid Shaheed a lot more involved
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: this year because he's had this. He's gonna have this
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: full offseason, a full training camp instead of get thrown
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: into it. As Cooper Cup showed, he still can be
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: very productive. He was their leading receiver in two of
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: their three postseason games. So if you know, maybe there's
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: a chance to spread the ball around a little more,
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: and that could lower his numbers. But I don't think
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: the offense itself is gonna affect his production in terms
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: of like not being as favorable to Jackson A.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: Smiphth Injic though John.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Boyle, Seahawks team writers Seahawks dot Com, joining us in
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: the Beacon Plumbing Hotline as part of our one series
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: of Seahawk profiling players. This one Jackson Smith and Jig.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: But John, have you seen a can you give a
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: comp of a player who has body control as the
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: ball is arriving like Jackson Smith and Jig? But you
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: and I have covered the league for a day or three.
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: I haven't I have a name in mind, but I
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: want to know if there's anybody he reminds you of
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: in that way.
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: It's it's hard because and you know this conversation camp
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: fal a lot last is like, you don't see receivers
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: in the NFL with his physical makeup have these kind
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: of numbers usually unless they're like the super elite speed
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: you know, track speed for three guys. And he's fast,
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: but he's not quite that fast, he's not that big,
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: but he's just as you said, the body control. You
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: know Sam Garland talks about the routes he runs it
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: just like how it looks like he's gliding out there.
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: I've heard people say, looks like he's on skate so
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: that he can change direction without decelerating. I'd love to
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: hear your comp I can't think of one. I mean, obviously,
• 8:54
  Speaker 6: just the body control part alone for a smaller guy.
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: There was a lot of that in Tyler Lockett of
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: like how was this guy his size such a good
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: deep ball catcher? Like over and over him with sees
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: deep balls contested and the eighty pound receiver came down
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: with it. And I do see some of that, and
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: we see, you know, the subtle you know, the little
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: hand move, the little tiny subtle push off, the adjusting throttling,
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: his speed, the little subtle parts of his game that
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: allows him to always be open and win those contested
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: balls even when he's not the biggest guy.
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: The subtleties. That's a great way to put it. That's
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: exactly what I'm talking about. How he decelerates depending on
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: where the ball is and then speeds up again almost
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: a ropodope to a defensive back and beating guys when
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: the ball arrives because he's changed speeds on him, like
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: a change up in baseball.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: And that way.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: He and dating myself here, but I covered Jerry Rice
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: when he played for the Oakland Raiders before.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: He of course came out to the seat.
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: Let's go with that comparison, hug Ery.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: I hesitate to do it because that's an immortal, but
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: that's who he reminds me of when I see him
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: slow down and put a defender on his back and
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: then speed up again. Jerry Rice did that, and I
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: haven't seen anyone else like and this is hyperbole, yes,
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: but Jackson Smith and Jigber, I'm not saying he's Jerry Rice,
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: but in body control wise, yeah, And you're right, he's
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: not Calvin Johnson and he's not a four to three guy,
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: and he's doesn't have the over the top physical skills
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: but the nuances in the like you said, subtleties. So yeah,
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: just you can tell him that facility that I just
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: compared him to.
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: Some aggregator is gonna slap the headline on Seattle radio
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: hosts says Jackson.
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: Si the Jigba is the next Jerry Rice.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: What beyond Jackson Smith and Jigba what have you noticed
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: about Brian Flurry that may be different? Maybe the same
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Cooper cup tonis yesterday, He's given Kubiak a run for
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: his money on being understated and quiet. Anything jump out
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: so far about the new oc tou.
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's funny.
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: We Darnold has a similar answer about like how just
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: like chill and and reserved he has And I'm like, oh, like,
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: just like the last guy. Maybe maybe that's my style,
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: but I do think, you know that's Sam talked about
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: this a little bit. That's a good trait for an
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: offensive play color, Like, you don't want a guy who's
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: gonna get all emotional and caught up in the moment
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: in some high stress situations. But yeah, I mean I've
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: been around him enough to get a great rate on
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: him personality wise or anything like that. But everything we're
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: hearing from from the players is, you know, A, they
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: really like him and what he's doing and bringing to
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: the offense, and b it seems like it's gonna be
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: very similar to Kubiak in both scheme and personality.
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: So you know, losing.
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: Offensive coordinator is obviously always a challenge for a team,
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: but you do have you know, I think a lot
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: of continuity. Obviously personnel wise, they only lost Ken Walkers
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: in terms of starters, And I think because Brian Fluryer
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: comes from San Francisco, you're gonna see a lot of
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: carry over. And if there's a quarterback who is well
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: prepared to handle a coordinator change, it is Sam Darnold.
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: I look this up.
• 11:56
  Speaker 6: His last repeat offensive coordinator was twenty nineteen and twenty
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: twenty with the every year since then, either because of
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: coaching changes or him changing locations, he has had a
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: new coordinator for the seven years running.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Wow, well, John.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: One of the many things I admire you for. In one,
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: you're pretty damn good at what you do. But also
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: I envy you that you get to sit in for
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: those moments when players get to re sign and extend
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: contracts and the families are there and Derek Hall, for instance,
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: and you were so right to point out that his
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: mother was right next to him and recount the story
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: of him being born premature in two and.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: A half pounds. What is your favorite one of those moments?
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: So, if you can go back and think of all
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: the signings you've been for and having inside access as
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: a team writer, if there was a particular moment or
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: scene or quote or anything. I'll give you a chance
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: to think about it for a minute. But yeah, all
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: of those what are those moments?
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: What it's your favorite one of those?
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: Oh that's tough. I mean, yeah, that's that's a lot
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: of history.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: And I've been on this job a little, yes you have.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: I mean, look, just maybe it's easy vines.
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: But for Derek Hall, knowing his story and no, I
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: mean I'm talking to his mom.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: At rookie mini camp.
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: She's out there and usually a lot of a lot
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: of parents come to those rookie camps in May, and
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: you know, hearing his story, and I mean she's literally
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: fighting for his life on day one.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Quote this story because her words were so poignant.
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's like doctors are telling her, you know, this
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: kid's probably not going to live and if he does,
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: he's going to be a vegetable.
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: And she's like, no, we're going to do everything we can.
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: And it would have been a miracle for him to
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: just have a normal, healthy life. And yet alone, a
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: great NFL player who just signed a life changing contract.
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: He told us in this press conference, he is going to.
• 13:46
  Speaker 6: Build a little family compound down in Mississippi so he
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: can take care of his family. Like those stories, like
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: when when these guys go through the different paths they
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: do and then they get this life changing money.
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: It's it's always special to see so I'm sure I'll think.
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: Some great ones from five years ago whatever, But just
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: off the top of my head, you know, and his
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: mom and his sister flew all the way out from
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: Mississippi for basically a few hours in Seattle.
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: Is it's pretty special to get to see him go
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: through that.
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: John, A lot of fans asked me when I worked
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: for the University of Washington what it was like to
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: travel on the team plane and stay at the team
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: hotels and that experience. Tell Seahawks fans what it's like
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: to be on the Seahawks charter, What kind of plane
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: it is, where you sit? What you can't say, I
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: don't want to divulge inside just inside secrets, but and
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: what type of hotels you stay out? What's the John
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: Boyle life on the road? Is it the type that
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: your wife is envying you that you're she's home.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: At the club and you're rolling. I try not to
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: talk about.
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: Exactly, so, honey, the powers out, Yeah, exactly.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Been there.
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: The ice machine kept me awake all night exactly. Look,
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: it's I'm not gonna lie. It's nice traveling on a
• 14:56
  Speaker 6: charter versus commercial.
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: It makes your life easy.
• 14:58
  Speaker 6: But the one thing I ask about, like, oh, it
• 15:00
  Speaker 6: was a play like good after a game, It's like,
• 15:02
  Speaker 6: it's not a party.
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: Like these guys win or lose.
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: Just played a very demanding physical game and they usually
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: want to relax, maybe sleep, maybe you know, watch the film.
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: So it's it's not a First of all, the staff
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: where I am is kind of way in the back
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: of the plane and I'm not that close to players anyway,
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: but even if I were, it's it's not the like
• 15:24
  Speaker 6: big celebratory thing after a big win. It's just sort
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: of like they get that out of their system and
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: then they're just chilling on the plane. So it's it's
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: not maybe as as crazy as people think.
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: But it is a good way to travel.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: You're understating that I just did me. The fact they're
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: home in like three or four I always asked John after.
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: That, like with kids getting versus yeah, staying another night
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: and flying home in the morning.
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: That is that is probably the best part.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: That is I always ask Joe what times you get home.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: I liked because I'm still in the stadium often while landing, didn't.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: See that He's just writing on the plane.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: You know sometimes it gets really sometimes it gets really
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: hard in the Wi Fi slow on the plane.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: Oh the things we suffer through.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Interestingly, you don't have TV on the plane, right.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: Uh, No, we don't have live TV in the planes.
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: We have Wi Fi, but we don't we're playing home
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: on a Sunday afternoon and there's a not well. I mean,
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: like I remember when the Mariners were playing it was
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: the Toronto in the playoffs.
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: We were flying where are.
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: We going anyway, We're on our way to a road game,
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: maybe Atlanta, and it was the it was like a
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: clinching game, and we're all trying to watch it, and
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: like you look around the plane and one person's phone
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: would sort of be streaming and four others would be frozen.
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: So we were maxing out. The Wi Fi's hard to stream.
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: So if it's if there's a good Sunday night game
• 16:52
  Speaker 6: or something after an afternoon game, we're not able to
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: watch that.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: John, I appreciate you enjoy your weekend with your family.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: It's great to talk to you. Yeah, you too, See
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: you next week.
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: Ye, thanks for having me us.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: John Boyle on our Seahawks one series about Jackson Smith
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: and JIGB saying he hasn't noticed anything different he made
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: buy a couple more cowboy hats. The Seahawks wide receiver
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: will with his one hundred and sixty eight million dollar contract.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: But other than that, same guy understated, which is it
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: is remarkable for guy who was a six to eight
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: player of the Year in Texas, playing in Jerry's World
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: for a state championship, then going to Ohio State and
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: three hundred and forty seven yards in the Rose Bowl,
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: then a first round draft pick in the NFL to
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: still be as understated and just quiet.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: He's a quiet PERSONA.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know how we lucked out with him, honestly,
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: because I do feel like, yeah, they're smart and they
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: know what they're doing when they draft. But there was
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: definitely an element of luck because, as John said, no
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: one was going to predict a seventeen hundred yard season
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: from him last year.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: No, not at all.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you Steelers for bringing the second round
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: pick to Seattle and taking dk metcalf and Jackson Smith
• 17:57

  Speaker 2: the last ten years and I'm up a couple grand.

  Speaker 1: Rod two o six, this is a good one.
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: Is Steve Balmer still a possibility to be involved in
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: Seahawks ownership?
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: The answers, Yes.
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: I talked to vaguely with Ian Furness a couple of
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: days ago about this. I think that's who's going to
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: buy the Seahawks. I'm not going to tell you why
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: I think that. I'm not going to tell you my
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: sourcing on that. I'm not ready to report it and
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: put it in the news Tribune. But the Texter asked
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: me a question, and I'm answering it. The answers, Yes,
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: all right, I think that would make a lot of
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: people out.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't mind that one.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: I would prefer someone that has a tie to hear
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: versus someone that doesn't care.
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the NFL has relaxed used to have rules against
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: cross ownership of other sports league's teams, and they've relaxed
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: that in the last half dozen years or so. Palmer
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: has said he and his wife Connie are busy enough
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: owning the Los Angeles Clippers. He said that in an interview
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: with CBS a couple of years ago. But stay tuned.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: That is all I'm going to say about that.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: When it happens. Is I remember Belle said that one
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: day I eight nine thirty five on a Friday in June.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: There you go from the four two five, given the stakes,
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: his last night's hockey game, from ten minutes left in
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: the third period on the craziest, most insane and awesome
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: game ever.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: It was great. And I don't know about ever, but yeah,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: it was pretty good. Pretty it was pretty good.
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: And it wasn't a Game seven, which would have been,
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: you know, or a deciding.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: It wasn't even an elimination game.
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: But to his point point, Caroline loses that they're down
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: two zero going to Vegas for the next two games.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: And you heard it, Edzo say, had that not happened,
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: they were done. He didn't see him coming back when
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: in four to the next five.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I would have definitely yeah, three.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Six, so says Wow, Cooper Cup sounds like a coach.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: He does.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Yes, he speaks like one. The words like one, tones
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: like yes he does. I've never asked him if he
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: wants to get into coaching, but I think he has
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: a family of coaches. Is he's got grandparents and uncles
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: that coached at UPS. Grandparents played for you, granddad played
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: for UPS University. P did sound there's there's coaching and
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: his family.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Earlier in the show, of course, we were talking about
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: the Kraken versus the Vegas Golden Knights, and Mike and
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: Elma chimed in saying, I'm not dismayed, but disappointed with
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: a lack of upward trajectory. Expected a few more playoff appearances.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: Love the Greg and Ashley Show. From one vet to another,
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Go Navy Beat Army. Had to make sure I read that.
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, thanks, go Army Beat Navy. Appreciate, appreciate everything, but
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: that last part there five eighty five. Ass Hey, Greg,
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: Army major here. You often talk about Mike McDonald's culture
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: that he built with the sales. Can you tell the
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: audience why command climate is so important in military organizations
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: as well as premier football teams. Yes, thank you Major Army, sir,
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: thank you for man, thanks for you for service. The
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: command climate. You have to tell the people you lead why.
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: You have to get buy in. It's gone the Army, military,
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: the Navy, the Air Force, NFL football teams. The days
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: are gone where you just say do this and they jump.
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: It doesn't work that way. And even in the military,
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: where they're bound by legal obligation to obeil awful order,
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: you just you don't get the same production and response
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: and loyalty and buying if you just tell them and
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: they have to do it. You have to explain and
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: give them a climate where they have input on what
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: they do and I can let him ask why. And
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: you have to have an interactive, transformational leadership perspective rather
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: than a transactional leadership. I've done a lot of study
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: that went to West Point, one of the leadership factories
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: of the world. I teach in the Athletic Leadership program
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: at the University of Washington. Graduation tomorrow, hats off to
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: the Cohort twenty twenty six, I'll be there. But you
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: have to have transformational leadership by allowing the people you
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: lead to be a part of the process, to get
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: their input, their feedback, their opinions, and you have to
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: explain a why, and that's not always going to be popular,
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: but you do have to give them access to input
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: of why and some input on what you're doing, so
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: that the buy in when it is is tough, you
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: still have the buy in. McDonald does that. He's a
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: coaches player, but he's not a pet and he does
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: not just coddle those guys. He gets after him, but
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: he also gives them carts like he's probably going to
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: give him an extra day off at the end of
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: the mini camp and let him go home a day
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: early unannounced.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: That's my guess. Players love that stuff.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: After they won the Super Bowl, Ashley and he said,
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: you know what, guys, don't come for the first part
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: of the offseason. I know it's voluntary anyway, but I'm
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: not expecting you. If we have anything, we'll put it
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: on zoom. Don't worry about it.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Even the gesture of him saying that players love that.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: So yes.
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: In the military, the modern military and in professional sports, transactional.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Leadership is out. It's gone.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: You can't do it. You can't just say do it
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: my way or else. You've got to have transformational leadership
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: that it enriches and enhances and involves the people you lead.
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: That's how I see it, Army Major, thanks for the question.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: For sure. We got to get to go boos new
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah we do.
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: Ashley Ryan's favorite time of the week is up next
• 27:45

• 28:08
  Speaker 4: missing out, man, That is right, that's.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: All you man.
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: So my favorite of the Yellowstone cocktails, because Booze News
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: is sponsored by Yellowstone Ready to Serve cocktails.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: My favorite is the old fashion You like that one too?
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm not a coffee guy. That's why I climb
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: the espress one.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I like the espresso, but I have to
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: be like I have to. I have to have something
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: with it, like some oat milk or something because I
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: can't have actual.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: Cream, so I have to doctor it a little bit
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: to make it not.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: As coffee like, just because I'm not a coffee person either,
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: But as far as an espresso martini goes, I usually
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: like a little creaminess to it anyway. But the I'm
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: just showing our YouTubers this is the espresso one, so
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: same packaging, you just get different colored lids. It's fun easy,
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: don't have to do anything if you're a coffee person
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: and don't have to have your coffee a little less
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: coffee like, sip it right in and I will tell
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: you another good way to do the coffee. Add it
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: to your already mixed coffee drink.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: That's a that's been a hit at some of the
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: softball games, travel tournaments.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you in the morning.
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: Ack, yes, exactly, exactly so as I said.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: Yes. Booze News sponsored by Yellowstone Ready to serve cocktails.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: Get yourself a drinking vessel, open the bottle and pour.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: That's about it.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: Other than sipping it must be twenty one or older.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Enjoy responsibly straight bourbon whiskey Cocktails twenty five and thirty
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: five percent alcohol by volume, Limestone Branch Distillery, Lovinon, Kentucky.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: I like to imitate it the commercial. Yeah, it has
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: been quite a week. We saw the Rams make a
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: jaw dropping trade that sent us through the five stages
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: of grief, as Chuck and I talked about earlier this week,
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: there's denial. I did one think it was fake when
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: I heard it, and then we got angry because f
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: the Rams.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: There was bargaining, like, okay, the Rams defense fence got better,
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: so what our defense will be better too? Their super
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Bowl favorites they whoop. Preseason favorites don't win the Super
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: Bowl hardly ever. Plus we like to be the underdog. See,
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: so there we go. We're bargaining our way out of it.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Then there was depression kind of like why the Rams.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: Why LA? Why the NFC West?
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: Why why? And then there was or is acceptance, which
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: I think we're working on right but also at the
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: same time saying okay, let's go bring it on. But
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: then luckily, when you're going through the five stages of grief,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: you don't have to like.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: Move from one to the other.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: So I am just in this cloud of the Five
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Stages of Grief slash accepting the fact that the Rams
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: added Miles Garrett. It was not I'm not a fan
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: of the move, I'll tell you that much. I'm not
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: a fan of the move. I think we're gonna be fine,
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: but I'm not a fan of the move. So yeah,
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: it is a work in progress, as is my hate
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: for the Rams. Now, if they bring back Aaron Donald,
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: check in with me.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I love how the former Wittier College usc Water
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: Bowl place or hates the Rams.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think that's fun.
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: We had a beat writer for the Athletic on Chris
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: and I did, who said he doesn't think Aaron Donald's
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: coming back.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: I mean Aaron Donald's wife was like, you all are crazy. Yeah, yeah,
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: I don't think so either. The Mariners managed an eight
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: game win streak, which was a lot of fun to watch.
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: Then seeing the win streaks not as fun.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: But it's not like we thought they were gonna win
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: fifty seven in a row, right, because yeah, no, we
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: wouldn't think that.
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: That would just be stupid. The nice thing about that
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: eight game win streak is that it got.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: The Mariners back to where we thought they should be
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: first place in the Al West and three games over
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: five hundred, does it make it less special that we
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: are in a crappy division?
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: Sure, doesn't.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Don't care. You can only play the cards you're dealt.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: So let's keep this train rolling.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Keep the train rolling in Detroit.
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: And in other baseball news you might have heard Shoe
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Heeo Tani's pretty good at baseball. His era is point
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: seven four through ten starts. That's the lowest era in
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Major league history. And oh yeah, he's batting three one
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: with ten home runs. Scientists, if you're listening, stop cloning sheep.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Start cloning that guy.
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: And he also leads the National League and on base
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: percentagecause why wouldn't he over four ten?
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: So again back to that, I don't like la just
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: throwing that back out there. And we also, this is
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: a non sports thing, but we need to stop. We
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: need to put an end to this trend of putting
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: vegetables in our wine. I'm seeing this too often. First,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: there was jalapenos in sove blanc to make it a
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: little spicy. It's not a margarita, people, it's not spicy
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: marg It's a sob blanc. And now people are putting
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: pickles in their soft blanc. Leave my white wine alone.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Maybe leave the sob blanc alone.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, leave it alone.
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: Just enjoy it for what it is. A cool, crisp
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: summary retreat. He go Rose, then I go save Blanc
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Rose Pino Gregio. I do not discriminate except against chardonay.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: I do discriminate against very picky about the.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: Shard red Merlou Cabernet cap.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I love a cab soov I like a Sirah Pino
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: and noir A little bit more picky. Yeah, Murlow a
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: little bit more picky if it's real squeaky, like makes
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: your tongue squeak on the roof of your mouth, not
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: a fan, which is funny because Cab tends to be
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: that way.
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: But I don't notice it as much with Cab as
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: I do with Murlow.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: There you go.
