Chuck in the Morning 8-11 Hour 4: Ryon Healy, NFL News & Notes and one last thing! · Chuck in the Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: All right, great morning to you, Happy Tuesday to you all, Ashley, Ryan,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Chuck Powell with you as we roll into our fourth
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: and final hour here on this Tuesday. But it is
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: one of our favorite hours, and it's because Ryan Heay
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: now joins his former Mariner just in town home run
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: derbying this past weekend, and he's got a lot of
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: problems for us to solve here in regards to Mariners baseball.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: So we're leaning pretty heavily on you, big guy.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I thought you provide the problems. I provide this solution. Yeah, Yeah,
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: You're gonna have to solve it all.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: That's what's happening now.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna create a lot of problems and then you
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: solve them all, and then we can all feel better
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: about things.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: We're going no notes today, no stats.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: We're just gonna go straight the eye test and we're
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: just gonna hash this out Chuck old stack, old fashion right.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, I can't wait to dive into it,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: but I do want to ask was it fair to
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: bring a pitching change in the middle of your home
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: run derby round on Friday and have to face James
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Paxton just because Jay Bunior likes showmanship, define fair. I'll
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: answer that no, has he even pitched batting practice ever
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: before in his life?
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Did you get the pitches you were looking for? You know, Chuck,
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: I'll answer it like this. There was a moment during
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: that day on Friday, when I landed in Seattle.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: I had a choice.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I had a choice where I can make the Homer
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Derby about myself and my ego to win, which I
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: believe I did for a lot of my life as
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: a professional athlete, or I could choose to see the
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: bigger picture of what this was actually about. And fortunately
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: for me, I saw that bigger picture during the game
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: because I got an opportunity to experience what t Mobile
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Park feels like as a fan for the first time ever.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: I got to sit in the stands, I had got
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: a walk around the concourse full of Mariners, fands that
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: loved this organization, this city so much. I had a
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: chance to experience that for the first time ever. From
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: that perspective, and all of a sudden hit me, this
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: was never about me. Whether it's James pack Cent or
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Felix Hernandez or Randy Johnson throwing me batting practice, this
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: wasn't about me. This was about entertainment, This was about connection,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: This was about enjoying the moment.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: And I did all of those things.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I connected with superstars, I connected with fans, and I
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: felt like the Mariners put on a tremendous show. And
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: I promise you, I promise you, at some point, if
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: I'm able to do that Homer Derby again, I will
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: bring my own beat, my own BP pitcher.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, if I put out an over under a fourteen
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and a half for year round against Danny Farquhar, do
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: we get.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Over that or do we get under under?
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Danny Farquhar throws like power cutters lowan away from Righty's
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: and my Cameron, Mike Cameron came back and was like, Dude,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: that dude's throwing cutters low and away.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: I can't get that ball in the air.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: He hit a couple like line drives in the right
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: center gap and I was like, that's what you made
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: a career off, and man, that's why you're here this
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: weekend off of the home runs.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: All right, So I'm bring your own picture the next
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: time and we'll see a different result. I don't have
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: any doubt about that. I don't because I you know,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I was expecting you to dominate, and I think that
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: you would under the right circumstances.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: That's it went fast, like I gets sped up on
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: you quick in there, Like in the two minute time frame,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: my legs were shot by about ninety seconds in. I
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: felt like I felt like there's a lot of things
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: that I just wasn't prepared for in that regard, where
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: you just kind of had to swing as hards a
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: can and hope you can hit it, kind of like
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: when I played Major League Baseball. To be honest, man,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: swing hard in case you hit it.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Well, I'll say this, there have been actual home run
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Derbys where all stars in the prime of their career
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: that have take batting practice every day didn't hit a
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: single one, and we had a picture hit three on
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Friday night.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: So I Smith put on a show, put.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: On a great show, including yourself, so Fa, well done,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: well done. All right, let's talk about the Mariners. Man.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: You're a you're a player on this team and you
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: can't score runs, and it's no longer early and you're
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: seven under five hundred, and the Astros and Rangers are
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: playing really good baseball now, so it's not gonna be
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: easy to track them down. What's the what were the
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: conversations Sunday? What's the plane ride to New York like yesterday?
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Where would the mind of a Mariner player be based
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: on current circumstances.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: That's a long flight across the country from Seattle to
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: New York. And usually the plane is where like the
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: most fun has had by the players, because especially you
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: go into an away city with an off day the
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: next day, it's a chance to play cards, to gamble
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: a little bit, you have some drinks, you're able to
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: kind of banter with the group, kind of take a
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: load off a little bit, and enjoy the moment. My
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: guess is that's what happened, because they're all in this together,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: the good and the bad. So I hope that that,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: you know, provided some connection. I remember there were seasons
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: when I even wasn't with the Mariners, one with the A's,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Like we would have cross country flights and there were
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: veterans out step up and make sure that we all
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: had fun on there and connected because the wins and
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: losses can be frustrating, and it's a long season, and
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: these are the dog days of summer, like we're getting
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: to the middle of August here creeping up to it
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: last six weeks of regular season, You've already played so
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: much baseball. Unfortunately, your numbers at this point of the
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: season are pretty much set. You can increase something of
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: the power production, but most of your numbers are set
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: for the year. Your focus shifts to all about the team,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: everything we can do to win here, and then all
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, everything you do which isn't good enough.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: A team like the Rays comes in in the red hot.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: And if you saw the Rays game on Monday night
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: against the Sacramento Athletics, like they were down six to
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: two and they came back and scored eight or nine
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: runs in an inning, Like that's a team that's just built
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: different right now, the Mariners can be that they haven't
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: been that.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: But they can be that.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: It's just a lot of things, and it's a lot
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: of pressure on the pitching staff, which has been there
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: all year, but the offensive production it's a broken record
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: at this point. They're having a really hard time stringing
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: innings together. They're having a really hard time leaving the
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: yard winners on base, and it's just it's one of
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: those things where you're like, there's got to be an
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: answer that's clear, but it's it's not unfortunately.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: What's wrong? I mean you've did this for a living.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I mean you tried to solve this impossible riddle for
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: years of your life and you know how difficult it is.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: And yet I think you're with me. I think the
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: pieces are there to have a successful offense. But for
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: four and a half months, it's been terrible. So what's wrong?
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: As you lay your eyes on it? You're there in
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the ballpark, You've called games. If you could, if you
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: were asked, Hey, Ryan, go in there and add something
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: to this conversation, what would you contribute to this to
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: get it going around?
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: There's not much more than I could contribute that wasn't
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: presented this weekend with the amount of you know, Mariner's
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: royalty that was walking through those halls, those clubhouses, on
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: the field all week and long, like there was plenty
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: of energy provided for that team, and I felt like
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: there was moments when it was it showed up on
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: the field, but it just wasn't everyone. What my diagnosis
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: is is there's a lot of individuals on this team
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: trying to solve their own problems, and not enough people
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: that are taking teams for the taking of bats for
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: the team, and it's hard to take in it back
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: for the team when you don't feel like yourself as
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: a hitter, because you essentially feel lost, you don't know
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: who you are, and you step in the box, your
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: approaches all over the place. You don't have the confidence
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: in your swing to get to the pitches you normally can.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: You're taking selfish at bats.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Unintentionally, Chuck, unintentionally because you're trying to figure your own
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: problems out instead of the ability of like, what does
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: this team need to do today to beat this picture
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: on the mound. There doesn't seem to be that one
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: through nine unison togetherness on a daily basis where it's like, hey, guys,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: this is what.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: We need to do to execute and win today.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: And I'm sure those conversations happen on a daily basis, Chuck, Yeah,
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: in the batting cage and the meetings they have on
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: a daily basis and offense, like those conversations happen. But
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of players that have underperformed this season,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: which means they're stuck inside of like that Mason jar
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: and they completely forgot what makes them special as a player,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: and they're trying to chase that former version of themselves,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: and they have no idea how to be the best
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: version right here, right now.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: That's a great answer when it comes to being able
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: to adjust on the fly. I mean they're obviously their
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: identity is we hit home runs and we pitch well.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Sure, but.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: To have any other ability to score runs doesn't seem
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: to exist, and it doesn't seem like them the manager
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: presses those buttons to try to make you score runs differently.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Maybe we don't have the skill set as a roster.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it is, but it does feel
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: ryan like if we don't hit two or three home
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: run or don't hit that three run homer, there's really
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: no chance to score runs. Can you adjust on the fly?
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Can you fix that? Can you figure out mid season
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: how to be more productive when you're not going deep?
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: My optimism wants to say yes, But my realism of
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: being a player is it's really hard. It's a tall order,
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: and to have the coaching staff or the manager step
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: in and start making decisions for your bats or with
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: your bats for you as a major leaguer now brings
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: in different emotions that you're trying to suppress. As you're
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: standing in the batter's box, meaning your ego, your personal career,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: your personal stats, the next contract, you're trying to play
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: for a roster spot with this team or another team
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: next year. There's so many factors of being a W
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: two employee in the Major League Baseball, but it's operating
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: essentially as an independent contractor. You're essentially a ten ninety
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: nine that has a W two like umbrella over you,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: but there's nothing guaranteed. There's some guys that have contracts.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: A lot of them don't.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: So at that point, you're trying to make sure you're
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: going to be valuable enough for a team or for
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: this team next year, so you have a job while
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: also trying to make the best out of this season.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: And I think the guys that are contracted long term
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: this on, this season and this team, they've underperformed and
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: they know that and they feel that pressure, and unfortunately
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: that pressure ends up growing internally for those superstars that
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: are underperforming and gets dispersed to others around them. I
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: feel like I got to pick up cal Rawly Slack
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: and I can't hit sixty home runs.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: So how am I going to ever live up to that?
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Ryan Healy is with us former Mariner part of a
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Mariner's TV crew this year and joins us every Tuesday
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: at nine o'clock to talk some Mariner baseball. Give me
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: the number one reason why it is the right decision
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: to stick with Dan Wilson here down the stretch.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: He understands how hard it is, and I feel like
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: at this point of the season to be really tough
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: to make a change, a managerial change, And the number
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: one reason being is, whoever replaces him, you're not going
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: to find the guy, have the opportunity to vet the
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: guy to know that he's the long term solution for
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: this club. So you essentially would just be making the
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: move to make the move to allow a voice already
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: internal to have more of a say. And if that
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: was the truth, then that voice would already be speaking
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: or would already be impacting or changing things. In my opinion,
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: if they were going to make that decision, it would
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: have happened sooner. I think this is this is Dan
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Wilson's team for the rest of the season. What they
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: do after the season is completely up to them. And
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: the sad part for me though, is I've seen people good,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: good people lose jobs over underperforming and when the expectations
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: are this high, whether they deserve that blame or not,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: you see it happen because it's easier to replace one
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: person that is an entire roster.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: We'll make you a little uncomfortable. Then give me the
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: thing about Dan Wilson that you feel he should be
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: better at that that's been a problem this upcoming year.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: I don't want you to just come across as you know, hey,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: we got to stick with Dan former player, player allegiance.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Give me something about Dan that you feel has been
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: an issue if anything this up this past season.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: It's a hard question, Chuck. I know it's a really
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: hard question. I know what my answer is. How I
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: say it matters a lot.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: I think we all see the postgame interviews, right, yeah,
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: and they tend to blend together the pretty similar.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Pretty much the same thing, every game.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Same thing.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: So my my hope, because I don't know this for certain,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: I'm not in those those rooms and what the conversations
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: are with the players, I hope that there is more
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: matter of fact and truth spoken behind closed doors, and
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: I hope that there's more accountability to what is actually
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: true and behind closed doors.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: It may be and it may not be working.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know that, but I do hope that there
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: is at least the truth being spoken from manager to
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: player or coaches to players about what's happening right now
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: throughout the course of the season. And I hope that
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: he's not relaying the same message that he is to
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: the media that he is to the team.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah, I agree. I just said that a
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: little bit earlier in the show, said something very very
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: very similar to that, because I mean, players want their
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: manager to have their backs. They don't want them to
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: ever throw them under the bus in the media. And
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: I'll say, Dan Wilson he's one hundred percent of that.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, two and a half years of him being
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: the manager of this team, I don't think he's ever
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: come even close to throwing a player under the bus.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: And I know that goes a long way with players, But.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: That was getting praised all weekend long by Mariner's legends,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: like his ability to have a player's back. You have
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: no idea how far that goes with the player manager relationship.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: All right, so you were around the team. I'm sure
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: you had a few conversations. I'm not sure how deeply
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: you probed, But do you get the sense that they
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: are on the side of we're gonna fix this, or
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: do you think some doubt has crept into this roster.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: I think there's belief, no doubt.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: I think there's plenty of belief, and I think more
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: than anything, there's trust amongst player to player in this clubhouse,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: mostly because they've they've proven themselves. There's not really an
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: unproven player on this roster. There are young players that
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: haven't had years and years of success Majoric level, but
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: at schunk glimpses of why they're there and why they
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: deserve to be there. I honestly believe that they're waiting
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: for that moment for it to click, and they've felt
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: that moment this season, not for a long stretch, but
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: for enough of a stretch where it's like, man, when
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: that version of this team shows up, we can beat anybody.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: But there's also been a lot of weekends where they
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: play against the upper echelon team in the AL East,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: the AL Central, some of these teams in middle of
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: the pack where they just don't show up at all,
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: and it's frustrating.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: But I do sense that.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of belief from player to player in
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: this clubhouse, and they do. They do believe that it
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: can come together. And I think there's time. At what
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: points is there not enough time? I think this is
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: a lot to do with how the AL has performed
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: as a whole this season, the fact that there even
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: is an opportunity, with how the wild Card race looks
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: like it's gonna come down to the wire, like no
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: matter what happens over this next nine game plus road trip,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: like it's gonna come down to the wire. And I
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: think it's gonna be really entertaining. And how the Mariners
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: respond the last couple of weeks of the season last month,
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: The season is going to determine a lot of.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: That Yankee Stadium fun. Intimidating What is it like to
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: hit there as a Major League hitters or is it
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: just the same as any other park and you block
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: it up.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: No, there's an extra pep in your self when you
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: play Yankee Sadium. My first time ever was in twenty seventeen.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: It was my first full season, but I played seventy
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: five plus games a year prior. And Ed Sprague, who's
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: a legend World Series champion of the Blue Jays. He
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: was working with the A's at the time, and I
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: saw him in Oakland the weekend after we played yank
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: Asada and he goes, was that your first time playing
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: in New York? I was like, yeah, he goes, Man,
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: you had a different pep in your step playing there.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: It's just like you just feel like you're floating the
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: entire time. Like you get to go out early, all
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: the memorials they can have in the you know, the
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: slabs they have in center field to go see the
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: names that have walked through.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: Not that stadium particular, but that organization.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: It just it just feels different and it provides a
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: lot of extra energy, especially this time of the year.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: You pissed them off.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: They games.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Oh they said some things that the radio. I don't
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: think you can get to your bleep button fast enough
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: if if I was able to repeat them. But like
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: it was, I loved that stuff, man. I loved when
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: the fans would get personal and chirp you with me.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: It was always New York and Boston. They're right there
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: on top of you, and they had some choice words.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: New York though, Like they showed up in BP and
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: they'd be chirping at you in batting practice. I'm like, guys,
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: the game's not for two hours. Can I like at
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: least get get loose and locked in a little bit
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: before you start, you know, telling me that my mother
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: is that you know what?
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: Like, just relax a little bit.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: Ed Sprague, I mean, did you guys have similar games?
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: If I remember? Is that fair to say that you
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: and Edetrie?
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: I was no nowhere near the player that Ed Sprague
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: was nowhere near. But he was a tremendous He was
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: a tremendous mentor to me and taught me like layers
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: of this game that were so deep in the onion
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: that I hadn't gotten to yet mentally, and he helped
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: me unlock. And he's a big reason why my twenty
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: sixteen you know season happened the way that it did.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: I had such a chip on my shoulder. I was
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: mad at the world, and he helped me organize that
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: frustration to provide some purpose to what my pregame work
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: looked like, my postgame reflection looked like. And I absolutely
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: took my game to another life that year.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: See actually, Eman Ryan gets grumpy. I had a conversation.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: With her earlier.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I think that everybody's just grumpy, grumpier than what they
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: used to be. What's something that makes let's close it
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: out with this, what's something all outside of sports, outside
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: of baseball, that makes Ryan Healey grumpy? The grocery store, traffic,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. Give me something that makes
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: you grumpy.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: It's not often other people. I've gotten pretty good at
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: like letting people just do what they got to do.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: If if someone cuts me off on the on my
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: way to work, like they value their time, Yeah, they
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: valuable time.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: They're more Russian I and.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: That's okay, But what about if they cut you off
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: and then they flip you off for it?
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: Like that's on them even then, even though it's like,
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: you know what, they must be going something through, going
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: through something harder than I am right now. Okay, it's
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: just so listen.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: They might be.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: But even if they are, can I change them? I
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: don't have control over them, so I gotta let it go.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: But what makes me really really grumpy? Chuck Cat really grumpy?
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Missing my morning routine? I had a day last week.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: It was my my daughter's second day of school. My
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: son we were taking him to his school for like
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: the introduction and my I forgot to set my alarm
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: completely on me, So I woke up at seven am.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: My wife walks in and goes, hey, you mean to sleep,
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: and I was like, oh no, So now I wake
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: up just reacting to a four to two year old
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: and my wife who is a little emotional about her
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: baby boy going to school. So now I'm I'm absorbing
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: and reacting to everyone's emotions instead of waking up early
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: to regulate mine.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: And that made me really grumpy.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: And it wasn't until about noon that day when I
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: finally realized, oh, this is all my fault.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: Cool, now I gotta fix it.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Good process, Good process there, all right, man, Great to
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: have you on as always, and we'll talk to you
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: again next week.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: See you guys, have some fun today.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: The fantastic never grumpy Ryan Haley joining us right here
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: on radio program coming and his segment, by the way,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: brought to you by Dino's. Uh in Renton, Dino's Pub
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: and Renton great tots.
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: There great place for Schneider and McDonald to hang out.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh, who was our other sponsor? I don't
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: have it in front of me, for I thought I
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: thought that was it. But I didn't want to say
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: it and then it not be it.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: I think you wanted to test me.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just kind of got caught there. I'm like,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: do I know, like, have you ever done that with
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: a person's name, Like really struggle with like the Kirsten, Kristen, Christina,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: you know, that whole family. So I'll see a Kristin,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh man, it was is it Kristin or Kirsten?
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: And I struggle with.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: That a lot. So I just end up not even
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: saying the name.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: That's fair, just be like, hey, you do that or
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: is that just me?
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I get that, and then I'm hoping somebody else mentions
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: it so then I can pick it up the mayor
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: for the rest of the night. But I always struggle
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: with that same thing with Griffin and Griffith. Always struggle
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: with those two. All right, Coming up next, some notes
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: from around the National Football League. We're getting ready for
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: preseason action on Thursday. Sports Radio ninety three point three
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: k A r F.
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: M oh hey, this is.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: Sort of.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Sort of a minor thing, but to a major player,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: all right, I think it's I think it's breaking newsworthy.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: I think that the sounder is very appropriate for the situation.
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: I'm ready.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: According to John Boyle, you know that guy on the
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: inside over there with the Seahawks, that guy in the building.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: SEAHORWKS safety Nick emon war pasted his physical today, an
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: important step in his return from the ankle surgery he
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: had last month. And so if you are feeling like
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: it suddenly got a little warmer here in town, it's
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: because Mike McDonald is smiling ear from ear the hear
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: to ear right now and warming up the entire Pacific
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Northwest with his smile.
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: I appreciate that, Mike.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: He's like Terry and who I got my emon Worri back.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: He's one step closer him returning. Thank you, thank you,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: thank you exactly. So obviously a few more steps to go,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: not like we're going to see him play anytime soon,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: but it is an encouraging sign and a step far forward,
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: and hopefully we get him all on the field ready
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: to go full strength for opening day against those New
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: England Patriots. But this is the next step in that direction.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: All right, we were going to do some NFL news
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: and notes, and we're going to start with the Seahawks.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: As some national guys observing Brian Flurry. And this is
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: something that all of our local guys have been reporting
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: and we've had numerous conversations about. But the takeaway from
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Jeremy Fowler from ESPN in his time with the Seahawks,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: and he had a few different notes, but one of
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: his takeaways was, get ready, Brian Flurry is about to
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: use this two tight end system a lot. That's his
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: big takeaway. And again, our local guys have been reporting
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: that for a while. But it was interesting that. I mean,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: we saw Jeremy Fowler out at camp here the last
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: couple of practices, and his big takeaway is how much
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: the new offensive coordinator his little touch They all, anybody
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: knew wants to add their own little personal flavor to
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: any offense. Even though he's gonna take a lot what
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Clint Kubiak did from a year ago, he's not gonna
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: mess with that. He's obviously gonna add his own personal flare.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: And it sounding to me like that is the flare
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: that he's going to have. We're gonna see a lot
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: of double tight end, which means a lot of Barner
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: and Arroyo together in this offense. Which is a conversation
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: I keep trying to drum up with all of our experts, like,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: somebody's got to lose out in this. You're gonna play
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: double tight ends and you're gonna lose the running back.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: That's the thing we learned from Emmanuel Wilson. Flur He's
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: gonna use his running backs out of the backfield in
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: the passing game. He's got more routes than Emmanuel Wilson
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: thought were even imaginable for a running back. And so
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: if you're gonna use the running backs more frequently, and
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: you're gonna use two tight ends more frequently, then how
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: often are we going to be using three or more
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: receiver sets during the course of this season? Certainly a
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: fair share, but I would guess obviously fewer than what
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: we've used in the past.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I would think so. And yeah, I mean again,
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: we don't have a full back. Yeah, I mean it's
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: gonna it sounds to me like it's gonna be really fun, right,
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: Like we're gonna have a lot of a lot of
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: things that we get to look forward to and see
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: and watch. I do get a little nervous because I
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: feel like in the past I've had some thoughts where
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: I'm like, Ooh, this is going to be a fun,
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: really exciting offense, and that's kind of black.
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: But I don't think that's gonna be the case this time.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Well, we're all anticipating that. And the thing is,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: we can't even judge Flurry. We can't even really get
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: a taste on Saturday because his playbook is going to
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: be so vanilla that we don't even We're really not
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: as as Hugh says, appropriately, So I don't know what
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: we have in Brian Flury until I start seeing him
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: call plays in a regular season game. We're not going
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: to know exactly what we have in Brian Flury. We
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: can't even start evaluating him until then, So it's a
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: long wait before we get there. Other news, how about
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: four ken Walker? Dan Graziano this morning reporting that get ready,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: ken Walker is finally going to be used the way
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: that he always wanted to be used here in Seattle.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, maybe even more so than
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Walker bargained for. With Patrick Mahomes coming back from injury,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: it sounds like ken Walker is not only going to
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: be a bell cow running back for them, So he's
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: going to be a bell that's already. Let's start there.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: He's going to be a bell cow running back, which
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: is what he wanted to be here, but with Patrick
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Mahomes and they're trying to like ease him back in
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: from his injury. He's on track to start an opening day,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: of course, but they might lean more heavily on the
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: running game. So not only is Walker going to be
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: a bell cow, the Chiefs are at least going to
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: start the season with the plan of running more than
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: what they have in the past. And they are going
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: to use him on all three downs, so you know
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: they're going to use him in the passing game they
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: always have. So ken Walker is going to get his wish.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, they're paying him a lot of money. Sounds
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: like he's going to be a three down back and
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: he only comes out when he wants to come out.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Ken Walker, they are preparing to be a bell cow
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: in the Kansas City Chiefs backfield.
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: Let's just see if his body can hold up to that,
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: because we haven't seen that proof yet.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: That is that is a great point, and I'm sorry
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: to break your heart with that, Kansas City fans that
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: are listening right now, because there are a lot of them.
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: Huge in Kansas City.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: Jackson Dart got a standing ovation from his teammates yesterday
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: or two days ago, maybe it's two days ago for sliding.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Oh man, I'd be worried about that if I were
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: John Harbaugh. The fact that it's become a joke that
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: your quarterback who got what three concussions last year during
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: the season, because it was not all like it was
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: more you're right, and because he was just foolishly taking
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: hits to try to prove his toughness in the league.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: And obviously that lesson has not carried over into this year.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: If you've been two weeks into camp and finally Jackson
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Dart sarcastically gets a standing ovation from his teammates for
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: finally getting the message and a practice and a practice
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: mind you, yeah, to hit the deck and slide. I mean,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: once you get into games, you know that the adrenaline
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: is gonna go and the juice is gonna go, and
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: he's gonna think he can run through walls again. If
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: I'm a Giants fan that has already believes we've found
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: our quarterback, I don't think you've found your quarterback. Let's
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: see him get through four weeks without a concussion.
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, wouldn't that be great before.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: You've reached the finish line in thinking you have the
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: face of your franchise. I think that they have a
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: major issue on their hands getting it through to that
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: kid that he needs to slide, because apparently it goes
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: up against everything that his body is telling him to do.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: They can't even get Scataboo to stop backflips on a
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: recently recovered knee. They got an issue with those two.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: Those two are nuts.
• 29:06
  Speaker 5: Big time issue, big time issue.
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: I mean I would be terrified as a Giants fan, like, oh,
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: come on, guys, just can you just not It's all
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: I'm asking.
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: Just just slide and don't do backflips. Those are not
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: hard things to ask.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Finally, the Dallas Cowboys always stirring the pot. I don't
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: know if Jerry Jones does this intentionally, it kind of
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: feels like he does. But obviously George Pickens only got
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: the franchise tag and they eventually talked him into being
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: okay with just getting the franchise tag. And then you
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: get two weeks into camp and they decide to give
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: all that money to Quinn Williams, their defensive tackle. Three years,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: one hundred and five million dollars to Quinn Williams, and
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: there you know that there's a part of George Pickens
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: that's like, okay, wait.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's why I took that.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought I thought I would be taken care of,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: and then I was, and then you convinced me into
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: this one year thing. Like and if you think he's
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: gonna take it lying down because he's a big of
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: a problem, Ceedee Lamb has already spoken on his behalf.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb's always saying they better take care of George. Then,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: I mean that conversation's already been conducted in the press
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: from off of this. And I'm not saying it's not
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: a bad idea too. I'm not saying it's a bad
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: idea that Quinn Williams got an extension, but man, it's
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: just weird. Like it's as if Jerry Jones like intentionally
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: wants to start inner turmoil over contracts and then if
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: it worked, I would say, well, keep doing it, but
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: it doesn't ever seem to work, but he just kind
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: of does it the exact same. Look, guys are gonna
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: get paid, some guys are gonna get paid now, and
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: some guys are gonna get paid later. But he certainly
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: I don't think made a lot of people happy that
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: he convinced Orge Pickens to take the one year deal,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: and yet the newer player in town, Quinn Williams, did
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: get his extension and might be the right decision. Quinn
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Williams seems like a lot more of a guarantee than
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: what George Pickens does. But he does find a way
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: toward creating controversy in his camp every damn year.
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: Without a doubt. I think he just he is a
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: full subscriber to any publicity. Is good publicity?
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that should be the title of his next autobiography. Yes,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: And then I would also say I think it's fascinating
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: because man, for all of those that believe you win
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: in the trenches, you know, and we're seem to be
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: going more and more back to that again, like making
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: sure offensive line and defensive lines are taken care of first.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: That seems to be where the National Football League's head is.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Where for a while it was about the edges, and
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: now it seems to be going back to the trenches. Well,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Jerry Jones been doing that for years. He really invests
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: in offensive line and defensive line, and he has invested
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: heavily and both right now actively, and yet again doesn't win.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: So he's the ultimate guy that has never really stopped
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: believing and investing in the interior offensive line and in
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: the interior defensive line to create trenches, and yet they
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: don't win football games. So this will be a great
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: study and that argument to watch to see if the
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys can break through with Quinn Williams and Kenny
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: Clark and then all of the interior offensive lineman they
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: tend to always have. All Right, coming up next, we'll
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: close out the show with one last thing. Sports Radio
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: ninety three point three KHARFM. All right, final segment of
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: the radio show here on this Tuesday. Chuck and Ashley
• 32:48

• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell and Jessamin McIntyre. They're coming up next. Good
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: luck following up this show.
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah we are. They're not going to talk about grumpy people.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: They're not going to hit all the hot topics. That's right,
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying.
• 33:07
  Speaker 5: That's right. We already took the magic mirror, so suck on.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: That, right. I could tell he was jealous earlier, was like,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: dang it, why didn't that come up? With a great
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: idea that probably is going to unlock your futures.
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: I want to be I want to be fair.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: I want to be in a think tank like Ashley.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: And Chuck have.
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: Sorry, job's taken.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, it's a two person job. Everybody's always known that.
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Everyone, all right, let's close it out with one last thing.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: What do you got ask?
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: I came across a very interesting story, and this involves
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw this. It's an article
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: on ESPN and the headline is golfer resigns from club
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: after admitting.
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: To fake hole in one.
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: So there is a golfer in Saint Louis and he
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: resigned his membership after playing in a tournament with you know,
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: he had his foursome his team. They went out for
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: their tea time. I guess on like whole three. He
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: pretended he had to take a phone call for an
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: ill relative and was like, I'll meet you guys. I'll
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: just tee off on four and I'll meet you guys
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: on the green, which one you're not allowed to do
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: in a tournament.
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: So, I mean you have to tee off with other
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: people present.
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: But when they came up there, He's like, I don't
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: know I finned it. I don't know where it ended up.
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: So they go over looking the cup. Sure enough, there's
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: the ball. They all start celebrating. They call the superintendent, Ugh,
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: and everybody's celebrating this hole in one in this tournament.
• 34:37
  Speaker 5: Only to find out the camera show he.
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: Drove up to the green, dropped the ball in the cup,
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: went back, acted like he teed off.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: What Yeah, why would you ever do that?
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: I know?
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: And so then he's like, yeah, I had made a
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: moral mistake. You do something as dumb as I did,
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: there are consequences. So he resigned his membership. And then
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: he's like, I made a terrible mistake. You know, I
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: deserve that from a golf perspective, but I'm hoping that
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: I can, you know, write things and everything.
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: No one's gonna ever want to play with you. You just
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: pretended you got a hole in one. You are now
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: a known cheater.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, number one, how do you want to do
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: that without the satisfaction of having actually done it?
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: Who even wants that? Secondly, now you got to buy
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: drinks for everyone and you didn't even do anything.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: Well, a lot of times the club will pay for
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: the drinks. But yes, yeah it's And also, if you
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: hit a hole in one, people, somebody has to witness
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: it for it to count. You can't just go out
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: there playing on your own and hit a hole in
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: one and then go tell everyone I got a hole
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: in one.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Yay me. Well that's gonna be aggressive. But here's my solution.
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: Banned from golf yep, forever. And he doesn't even get
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: to go watch it either. Yeah, can't play in it
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: and he can't watch it.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: You can't step on any golf course that your face
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: is gonna be on the uh at the outside of
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: every golf course for this guy, and he is not
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: allowed in your well done.
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: I think it's a fair punishment.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, especially for you. I mean how sacred you take it.
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: I mean you've named everything in your life after golf.
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: It's true, It's really true. I'm the only one that
• 36:12
  Speaker 5: doesn't fit in.
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Well, we can we can work on a nickname for you.
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: Okay, yeah maybe yeah, now you're easy.
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: Now you're excited about it.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, fairway, Ashley Bogie.
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: I'm just one more than anyone really wants.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: I didn't know a bogey growing up, kind of like
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: that name.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: My God said's name is bo and it was.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: The joke was it was because he was one more
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: kid than his parents wanted.
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: They love him now, but boy was he a terror
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: for a while.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Well, we'll work on that. I think we could come
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: up with something, all right, cozy, No, no, no, that
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: one wedge.
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: There you go. Just call me Eric Weggie. It's Chuck
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: and Leggie in the morning.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: Would you Jackie Mason? Caddyshack two worst follow up to it?
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: I never saw so bad? Don't watch it.
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: Was it worse than Anchorman two because I stopped that
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: one in the middle.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: I think worse. But I didn't watch Anchorman two because
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: I heard they were bad reviews and I didn't want
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: it to ruin my Angerman one worse in any way,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: so I didn't go watch it. That smart. Yeah, all right,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: I'll close with this. I did mention this thus briefly,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: and it came out of nowhere, and I an't think
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Ashley knew what I was talking about. But so much
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: in the first half about how bad the American League is.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: I got news for you. It's nearly evened out, Like
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: the National League has won less than fifty one percent
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: of their games so far this year, and the American
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: League has now won more than forty nine percent because
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: I got one percent difference between the two. There are
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: eight winning records right now in the National League. There
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: are seven in the American League or more even Yeah,
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: I told you this is going to happen. I said
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: it at the time. Remember I said, by the end
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: of the year, there will be two winning records in
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: the American League West, and there will be two winning
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: records in the National League Central, because at the time
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: there were five in the National League Central, and there
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: were I don't think there was any at the time
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: in the American League West when I said that, And
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: that's exactly where we're at. It averages out. Stop overreacting. Again,
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: It's a long season, and so we're gonna have to
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: earn this. Like the American League is not falling back further.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: For the Mariners, told you you're gonna have to start
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: playing better baseball because a lot of other teams are
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: going to start playing the way they're capable of as
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: well in the second half. And they have the Red Sox,
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: the Astros, the Rangers, the Mariners just aren't playing as
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: well as they're capable of. But the American League is
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: getting better, stronger, tougher, and the teams have improved here
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: in the second half. So yeah, I mean it's still
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: not a bonanza. I mean, they're still not lighting the
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: world on fire, but they're over forty nine two percent
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: winning percentage to the National League's under fifty one percent.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: So it's already evened out and it will probably even
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: out a little bit more before the season comes to
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: a close.
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I would think so.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: All right, that'll do it for us. Thank you very
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: much for being with us. We appreciate it. We'll talk
