- 0:33Speaker 2: We got some big plays coming. What the hell's going
- 0:35Speaker 2: on out here? Yellow Weasel. We're calling the plays, all right?
- 0:40Speaker 3: It is time.
- 0:41Speaker 2: What do you think you are? With Drew Olson.
- 0:44Speaker 1: When he spoke, he commanded your attention and he commanded
- 0:48Speaker 1: your respect.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Bill Schmidt. That son of a gun is thick. And
- 0:51Speaker 2: Armin Sarian. Daddy Sarian.
- 0:53Speaker 1: Welcome to the huddle.
- 0:59Speaker 4: Huddled up on a Wednesday in the good land. It's Drew, Billy,
- 1:01Speaker 4: and Armin coming at you. 920 Milwaukee, 1070 Madison. Everywhere
- 1:05Speaker 4: on that iHeart app of yours. Streaming live on Facebook, X,
- 1:08Speaker 4: and YouTube as soon as Armin hits the button. And
- 1:10Speaker 4: then you'll see that we are joined in studio by
- 1:12Speaker 4: our pal Shanna Quinn from the country station down the hall.
- 1:15Speaker 5: You guys are too good to me.
- 1:16Speaker 2: How are you?
- 1:17Speaker 5: I'm good. I've gotten so many compliments on this hat today,
- 1:20Speaker 5: including one William Schmid, my Packer hat today.
- 1:23Speaker 2: You'll see it in a second here.
- 1:25Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 1:25Speaker 5: I'm waiting.
- 1:26Speaker 2: There you go. Drum roll. Come on, Armin. He's coming in.
- 1:29Speaker 2: Now he's got to hit a button on the old tablet,
- 1:31Speaker 2: your cameras.
- 1:33Speaker 5: The technology at iHeartMedia.
- 1:35Speaker 2: It is a sharp hat. How long have you had it?
- 1:37Speaker 5: Oh, you know what? We were just talking about it.
- 1:38Speaker 5: I have had it since I started with the Packers report.
- 1:41Speaker 5: So that was like four years ago, I think.
- 1:43Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:44Speaker 5: Which is crazy to think that that was like, it
- 1:46Speaker 5: was either four or three years ago.
- 1:47Speaker 4: You can tell, uh, Billy, what's the shelf life for
- 1:50Speaker 4: a hat for you?
- 1:51Speaker 2: How long do they last?
- 1:53Speaker 6: In regular rotation. I was going to say, in regular rotation,
- 1:57Speaker 6: it's about a year and a half.
- 1:58Speaker 4: I was going to say, no way you'd be wearing
- 2:00Speaker 4: one that, you know, in regular rotation for four years,
- 2:02Speaker 4: they'd be falling apart.
- 2:03Speaker 2: They'd be falling. Sweat stained.
- 2:05Speaker 5: Let me ask you this. Do you put your hats
- 2:07Speaker 5: in the washer?
- 2:09Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good question. A couple of them. There's
- 2:11Speaker 2: a couple of them, but I don't usually put it
- 2:13Speaker 2: in the dryer.
- 2:15Speaker 5: No, never in the dryer.
- 2:17Speaker 2: The new gizmo.
- 2:19Speaker 4: There's a new cap steaming gizmo for guys who wear
- 2:21Speaker 4: a lot of hats. You put the hat in, close
- 2:23Speaker 4: the thing up, and it steams it. And then it
- 2:26Speaker 4: cleans it.
- 2:26Speaker 6: Like the hair dryer that you would see at the salon.
- 2:30Speaker 6: It looks like the bubble. See, I was thinking like
- 2:31Speaker 6: a bottle steamer. We use like a bottle steamer. Like
- 2:34Speaker 6: you do that to like sanitize your baby bottles.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I used that bottle thing before.
- 2:38Speaker 5: Yeah, but like this is for hats. Like that's actually brilliant.
- 2:40Speaker 5: I should get that for the dude for Christmas.
- 2:42Speaker 2: I don't think you really clean it. There's no good
- 2:44Speaker 2: way to me to still clean a head. I've gotten
- 2:45Speaker 2: the cap buddy, the bill buddy, where you put in
- 2:47Speaker 2: the dishwasher. They shrink them, though. I don't know. Lars
- 2:50Speaker 2: put a couple of my heads in the washer.
- 2:51Speaker 6: There have been some, though, because I got an awkward-shaped head.
- 2:54Speaker 6: I got a large head. But I have an awkward-shaped
- 2:57Speaker 6: one from getting hit on the back of my head
- 2:59Speaker 6: a number of different times. So sometimes I will wash
- 3:02Speaker 6: them strategically. to try to loosen it up a little bit.
- 3:05Speaker 6: That'll be one to maybe stretch, or I put one
- 3:07Speaker 6: into the dryer to actually shrink it a tick just
- 3:09Speaker 6: to be able to form it.
- 3:11Speaker 4: Take it down to the clubhouse and have one of
- 3:12Speaker 4: the clubbies stretch it for you. They have a hat stretcher.
- 3:14Speaker 4: I was going to say, they got everything.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Well, if we had access to all those guys, that'd
- 3:18Speaker 2: be great.
- 3:18Speaker 5: Well, and I guess it's different for you guys because
- 3:20Speaker 5: I wear a lot of, like, dad hats, right? So
- 3:22Speaker 5: these are a little bit easier to put in the
- 3:23Speaker 5: wash versus if you put, like, one like you have on, Billy,
- 3:26Speaker 5: it'll probably lose that form.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Yep, it loses, like, a little bit. That makes sense, yeah.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Kind of deal like that. Mm-hmm.
- 3:32Speaker 6: So have you gone through what merch or what merch
- 3:36Speaker 6: the house is going to get the hats that the
- 3:37Speaker 6: house is going to get for the Brewers World Series
- 3:40Speaker 6: or is that going to be maybe put the clearance
- 3:42Speaker 6: sales end up rolling through here in the next week
- 3:44Speaker 6: or so.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 3:45Speaker 5: So we actually just redid our basement. Shout out Brewer Contracting.
- 3:49Speaker 2: I love them so much. What up, Ken? Yes, yes,
- 3:51Speaker 2: it's a partnership right there. You guys do a great job.
- 3:53Speaker 2: He is handsome, you're right.
- 3:54Speaker 5: We love Ken. We love Brian.
- 3:56Speaker 2: They're awesome.
- 3:57Speaker 5: So anyway, we're getting our basement done. It looks incredible.
- 4:00Speaker 5: And the dude was like, we should put jerseys on
- 4:03Speaker 5: the wall, like signed jerseys. Because one side is like
- 4:06Speaker 5: playroom for the little guy, and then one side is
- 4:08Speaker 5: like sports cave for us. So we're doing Bills and
- 4:11Speaker 5: Packers stuff, obviously. Got to keep it neutral. So we
- 4:13Speaker 5: were talking. This is actually a good question for you guys.
- 4:16Speaker 5: We're going to put four jerseys on the wall.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Oh, I like this. I love this. This is like
- 4:21Speaker 2: the type of discussions I love right.
- 4:22Speaker 3: Here, yeah.
- 4:23Speaker 5: Like your Mount Rushmore of jerseys, right?
- 4:24Speaker 2: Mount Rushmores, yeah.
- 4:25Speaker 5: So the dude had asked me, okay, who do you
- 4:28Speaker 5: want from the Bills? Like you can get two and
- 4:30Speaker 5: I'll get two. So, of course, right away he says
- 4:32Speaker 5: Rodgers and Love.
- 4:34Speaker 2: Good, good, good.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Right?
- 4:35Speaker 5: Yeah, because I refuse to have Brett Favre on my wall.
- 4:37Speaker 2: But do you want one on your wall that's like
- 4:40Speaker 2: a jersey of a player you like? Or do you
- 4:42Speaker 2: want one that you got autographed? See, that's tough, too.
- 4:45Speaker 5: That's what we're going to do. He has a signed
- 4:47Speaker 5: Jordan Love jersey that was a present from my parents
- 4:49Speaker 5: for Christmas a couple of years ago.
- 4:51Speaker 2: So we got that one. We're good to go.
- 4:53Speaker 5: And I said, of course, I want a Joshua Patrick
- 4:55Speaker 5: Allen jersey on the wall, obviously. So the fourth one,
- 4:58Speaker 5: he asked me, who do you want from the Bills?
- 5:00Speaker 5: And I just didn't have a good answer except for
- 5:03Speaker 5: like Doug Flutie because I loved him. He's a legend
- 5:06Speaker 5: in Buffalo. So then we started pivoting and I said,
- 5:09Speaker 5: you know what? Actually, let's do a Brewer since they
- 5:11Speaker 5: just won. So now we're talking about which Brewer to get.
- 5:14Speaker 5: And I said Contreras. But now he's been signed to
- 5:16Speaker 5: that like extension. They signed him for that.
- 5:20Speaker 2: It's just a one-year contract. I thought it was.
- 5:23Speaker 5: A one-year extension off of him. I'm used to the
- 5:25Speaker 5: way that we do things here, apparently.
- 5:27Speaker 2: This is a World Series. It lives forever. So I
- 5:28Speaker 2: would think you're not going to go around with anybody.
- 5:30Speaker 5: I was thinking, that's what I said. I said, who cares?
- 5:33Speaker 5: Even if he isn't here in a year.
- 5:34Speaker 6: You could get Jojo Romero from this year and it
- 5:37Speaker 6: would have some shelf life.
- 5:38Speaker 5: And he said, he was like, you can't have Garrett Mitchell.
- 5:41Speaker 5: I'm like, okay, that's bullying.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Why not? Flutie's a handsome devil, too.
- 5:46Speaker 5: So adorable still. You're right.
- 5:48Speaker 2: He's doing those new Gen X commercials. Doug Flutie knows
- 5:50Speaker 2: what's up. He sure does.
- 5:53Speaker 5: So that's why I'm thinking I'm going to do my
- 5:56Speaker 5: second jersey as Contreras because I love him. I'm a
- 5:58Speaker 5: big fan of catchers. I loved Jorge Posada so much.
- 6:04Speaker 2: He was a great catcher, obviously. The Yankees don't like him.
- 6:07Speaker 4: I can't believe you didn't go to Freddie Jackson. Oh,
- 6:09Speaker 4: that would have been cute. Here's a life hack for
- 6:13Speaker 4: you guys, the young children and stuff. I learned this
- 6:16Speaker 4: from a buddy of mine. Buy the jerseys, get the
- 6:18Speaker 4: framed jerseys and stuff, but buy the youth-sized jerseys.
- 6:21Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I... Smaller frames. Easier to frame.
- 6:23Speaker 4: Easier to frame. And then if, let's say, the player
- 6:27Speaker 4: has a legal issue.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Correct.
- 6:28Speaker 4: You take it off the wall and toss it, and
- 6:30Speaker 4: you're not out this massive framed full-size jersey piece, it's
- 6:35Speaker 4: less of an investment. And especially for a kid's room.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Oh, for sure.
- 6:38Speaker 4: Small jerseys look so money, because you can have a
- 6:40Speaker 4: bunch of them.
- 6:41Speaker 6: Them yeah all of them stacked up through the little
- 6:43Speaker 6: guy's room and we could fit probably five or six
- 6:46Speaker 6: of them yeah you know they are the youth small
- 6:48Speaker 6: where also he just wants to see the number yeah
- 6:51Speaker 6: and it makes it a lot easier and i mean
- 6:53Speaker 6: i think we ended up getting the frames and the
- 6:54Speaker 6: jerseys for all of the price of what one adult
- 6:57Speaker 6: exactly i.
- 6:59Speaker 5: Thought you meant drew for wearing because like that's what
- 7:01Speaker 5: i'll do is get like an extra large like boys
- 7:03Speaker 5: jersey for myself because it's the same as like talking.
- 7:05Speaker 4: About framing and displaying that's a good for especially for
- 7:08Speaker 4: a kid's room you But it's not.
- 7:10Speaker 5: So the kid's room is golf themed. His part of
- 7:12Speaker 5: the basement is golf themed. And then ours is going
- 7:15Speaker 5: to be more of like the football.
- 7:17Speaker 2: That's the tough thing about game issued or game worn jerseys, too,
- 7:20Speaker 2: is because these guys are so much bigger. You don't
- 7:22Speaker 2: realize how big the jerseys are. Like, Billy, you have
- 7:24Speaker 2: the Marcus Hanna one, although you kind of fit in that.
- 7:27Speaker 2: Not trying to make any, you know. No, I'm just saying.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Kind of. You like that? I got like an old
- 7:33Speaker 2: Todd Coffee game used if you want me to donate that.
- 7:36Speaker 2: But nobody, like, who's thinking I want a Todd Coffee
- 7:38Speaker 2: jersey on the wall? Why on earth did you get
- 7:40Speaker 2: a Todd Coffee? I was going to say. I got
- 7:41Speaker 2: some weird game used jerseys. I got some weird ones.
- 7:43Speaker 4: A Todd Coffee jersey could fit three Armin Sarians inside.
- 7:46Speaker 2: It's a 56. It's a triple X. It's a triple X.
- 7:49Speaker 5: How many Almanzarians will the jersey fit?
- 7:53Speaker 2: I got a lot of random stuff.
- 7:55Speaker 6: That's also a gem. Why on earth would you be
- 7:57Speaker 6: trying to get rid of a Todd coffee? I'd be
- 7:59Speaker 6: sprinting to the thrift store to take that. I'll give
- 8:02Speaker 6: it to you, Billy.
- 8:03Speaker 2: You actually will fit in that jersey. I can't wear it.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Do you hear this? I'm not driving me. You wear
- 8:10Speaker 2: the multiple X's. It's not like Is that bad to say? No,
- 8:19Speaker 2: it's not.
- 8:19Speaker 6: Because, I mean, when Shanna talked about wearing the adult
- 8:22Speaker 6: or the youth small or the youth extra large. No,
- 8:24Speaker 6: I said youth extra large. Youth extra large, which is
- 8:26Speaker 6: basically an adult small. I don't think I've fit into
- 8:28Speaker 6: that since like third grade. So there's no offense taken here.
- 8:32Speaker 6: Don't worry about it.
- 8:33Speaker 2: I used to go after the game. Game used jerseys
- 8:36Speaker 2: were like an exciting thing for me when I was
- 8:38Speaker 2: working at the stadium and they first started kind of
- 8:40Speaker 2: selling them. Because I recognize some were being mispriced because
- 8:44Speaker 2: some of the guys were like 50 bucks. And I'm like,
- 8:46Speaker 2: that's definitely worth it.
- 8:47Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:48Speaker 4: You got to snag that Jody Garrett while you can.
- 8:50Speaker 2: Exactly. When else are you going to need a George
- 8:53Speaker 2: Kataris jersey? I had my Dave Nelson one when he
- 8:55Speaker 2: was a first base goes rest in peace. It's not
- 8:57Speaker 2: a guy I thought about this week. Dave, Dave, Dave Nelson.
- 9:00Speaker 2: I'm never letting that one go. But, you know, you
- 9:03Speaker 2: think about that stuff. And then when you go to
- 9:04Speaker 2: the clubhouse sale, that's when I kind of look for
- 9:07Speaker 2: the shorter guys that are like coaches and like maybe
- 9:10Speaker 2: the Daniel, the monastery to the world that would actually
- 9:12Speaker 2: fit me. But sure. I think that's when I acquired
- 9:15Speaker 2: this Todd coffee Jersey. I kind of found it when
- 9:18Speaker 2: I was moving, but yeah, Billy, you can definitely, he
- 9:21Speaker 2: might have some sweat stains too. Cause it's game use
- 9:23Speaker 2: and you know, I'll use sort of sprint out of
- 9:24Speaker 2: the bullpen. That's beautiful. Remember that? That's what you want.
- 9:27Speaker 2: That's the exact one that I'm looking for. Yeah. So
- 9:29Speaker 2: I would say you got to have also, you need a,
- 9:32Speaker 2: one of the nine early nineties bills represented there. I mean,
- 9:34Speaker 2: that was the run.
- 9:35Speaker 5: We almost did that. Cause I have a Bruce Smith Jersey,
- 9:37Speaker 5: but I still, but I still like wearing that one.
- 9:40Speaker 5: It was funny because I was like, I think the
- 9:41Speaker 5: only signed Bills jersey I still have is a signed
- 9:44Speaker 5: Paul Poslasny jersey.
- 9:46Speaker 2: That's a good one.
- 9:47Speaker 1: Hilarious.
- 9:49Speaker 5: I was like, wow, I still have that. I have
- 9:50Speaker 5: a Lee Evans jersey signed as well, which I always forget.
- 9:53Speaker 5: He's a former Badger.
- 9:54Speaker 6: I was going to say the Lee Evans one actually
- 9:56Speaker 6: is kind of a perfect one to put up if
- 9:59Speaker 6: you have room for it.
- 10:00Speaker 2: It down there.
- 10:01Speaker 5: If you know, you know, the most perfect jersey would
- 10:03Speaker 5: be a Micah Hyde jersey because Micah Hyde played for
- 10:06Speaker 5: the Packers and the Bills. Of course, that's the only
- 10:10Speaker 5: reason why.
- 10:12Speaker 2: There's another guy I think that represents. Were you a
- 10:15Speaker 2: big Jim Kelly guy?
- 10:17Speaker 5: No, I'm not. The dude had said, let's do a
- 10:20Speaker 5: Jim Kelly jersey. That makes me a poser.
- 10:23Speaker 6: I do.
- 10:23Speaker 5: This is actually a poser, though. I have a picture
- 10:25Speaker 5: of Jim Kelly that we're going to put in there.
- 10:26Speaker 2: Well, you got to have a picture with the guy.
- 10:28Speaker 2: I mean, come on.
- 10:29Speaker 5: It's cool. And then I have a picture of my
- 10:30Speaker 5: G-Mod with Marv Levy that's going to go on.
- 10:32Speaker 4: The Hall of Fame wall.
- 10:33Speaker 2: That's the one. That's the one to blow off. If
- 10:35Speaker 2: you can get a Marv Levy type of poem up there.
- 10:38Speaker 5: Where would you rather be than right here, right now?
- 10:41Speaker 2: You love poetry.
- 10:42Speaker 3: Yes.
- 10:42Speaker 2: But we talked about him this week. I think the guy,
- 10:44Speaker 2: you might have to invest in it. You might have
- 10:46Speaker 2: to buy one.
- 10:47Speaker 5: A Jim Kelly jersey?
- 10:48Speaker 3: No, no, no.
- 10:48Speaker 2: We talked about him this week in the hallway. Do
- 10:50Speaker 2: you remember? Number 34, Thurman Thomas. You got to get Thurm.
- 10:54Speaker 2: I think that would be a great one to get
- 10:57Speaker 2: up there.
- 10:58Speaker 5: Or like an Andre Reid.
- 10:59Speaker 2: Andre Reid's a good one as well. You don't have
- 11:01Speaker 2: a 32? Buffalo.
- 11:05Speaker 5: No, I'm not trying to squeeze juice.
- 11:07Speaker 2: I just didn't know. I don't know if you have one.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Maybe from the Hertz commercial.
- 11:14Speaker 5: I believe he is not.
- 11:15Speaker 6: He was flying in that Hertz commercial.
- 11:17Speaker 2: Is that game used? There's that. I'm sorry. I'm just bad.
- 11:20Speaker 2: We'll get the kid moving on.
- 11:21Speaker 4: Those are the matchbox of a white Bronco. And that'll
- 11:24Speaker 4: be the, that'll be the end of the illusion.
- 11:26Speaker 5: Any ideas in my kid's head. He's already so feral.
- 11:29Speaker 5: I don't need him copying what OJ did.
- 11:31Speaker 2: If the Jersey doesn't fit, you know, he's a boy.
- 11:34Speaker 2: You're going to be in the midst of, I don't know.
- 11:37Speaker 6: He's always, he's already trying to actively hurt himself and
- 11:39Speaker 6: harm every single moment.
- 11:42Speaker 2: You're you're the next victim.
- 11:44Speaker 5: I know.
- 11:44Speaker 6: Within the next two to three months, you will be
- 11:46Speaker 6: the victim.
- 11:47Speaker 2: It's a fun time, though, to get through.
- 11:49Speaker 5: I have to say, I always wanted to have a
- 11:51Speaker 5: girl until I had a boy, and now I said, no,
- 11:53Speaker 5: thank you. I do not want a girl. That seems
- 11:54Speaker 5: like way too much work.
- 11:55Speaker 2: I would rather have a feral.
- 11:57Speaker 5: But, like, Lena's so cute.
- 11:59Speaker 2: Thank you. I appreciate that. She's so beautiful. I agree.
- 12:02Speaker 5: And adorable, but I can't. I'm not a girl's, like,
- 12:06Speaker 5: I'm a girl's girl. I'm not a girly girl, you know?
- 12:09Speaker 5: And I feel like I'm a boy mom through and through.
- 12:12Speaker 2: You feel that now because you have that, but you
- 12:14Speaker 2: would be great at it. You'd be great at it.
- 12:17Speaker 5: She'd ask me to do her hair, and I would
- 12:18Speaker 5: just panic. You're like, here's a ball cap, kiddo.
- 12:21Speaker 2: You'll be okay. That's a good channel. I've learned to
- 12:25Speaker 2: do a ponytail. I think you'd be able to also.
- 12:27Speaker 4: You guys want to win a trivia or a bar
- 12:29Speaker 4: bet contest?
- 12:30Speaker 2: Yes, I do love these trivia.
- 12:31Speaker 4: Speaking of jerseys, what number does Pat Murphy wear?
- 12:35Speaker 2: Well, that's a great one. He changes it every damn year.
- 12:37Speaker 2: You never see it.
- 12:38Speaker 4: He's changed it several times since he's been with the crew.
- 12:40Speaker 4: You never see him in the jersey. But he's never
- 12:42Speaker 4: in a jersey. He doesn't even wear it. They used
- 12:43Speaker 4: to have the rule that managers had to wear it.
- 12:45Speaker 2: None of them do it.
- 12:46Speaker 4: They wear hoodies.
- 12:46Speaker 2: I'm convinced he doesn't wear it.
- 12:48Speaker 5: He wears like the Bill Belichick kind of jersey.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Sweatshirts.
- 12:51Speaker 2: People are trying to buy that, and you can't find it. Oh,
- 12:53Speaker 2: I have no idea.
- 12:54Speaker 6: I'm going to go, because I'm pretty sure I saw
- 12:56Speaker 6: it at a card show.
- 12:58Speaker 2: It's probably one of the old ones. 21? He was 21. What?
- 12:59Speaker 3: No.
- 13:03Speaker 4: He was 49, and then Gallardo, and then he's 59,
- 13:05Speaker 4: and then he doesn't really care.
- 13:07Speaker 5: Why does he change it so much?
- 13:08Speaker 4: Then he's 21 for Roberto Clemente, and now he's double zeroes.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Oh, really? That would be a tremendous jersey to get.
- 13:17Speaker 2: That's an epic jersey. I had zero idea. You know,
- 13:20Speaker 2: I remember one time when Girardi was getting tossed and
- 13:23Speaker 2: he took off his sweatshirt or jacket and he just
- 13:25Speaker 2: had like the Under Armour Yankees shirt. And I'm like,
- 13:27Speaker 2: wait a minute, he's not wearing a jersey. This was
- 13:29Speaker 2: maybe 15 years ago. The first time I realized, I
- 13:31Speaker 2: bet these managers aren't even wearing jerseys anymore. They're not
- 13:34Speaker 2: even wearing uniforms. They don't.
- 13:36Speaker 4: Jason Lane wears number 40.
- 13:38Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. That's not bad.
- 13:41Speaker 4: Every other Brewers coach's number is north of 70. Maybe
- 13:45Speaker 4: you're 68.
- 13:46Speaker 2: I think the only one that I've ever seen in
- 13:48Speaker 2: the jersey is Daniel. He's got number 95. He rocks
- 13:52Speaker 2: the 95. He's a translator. He's a coach, but he
- 13:55Speaker 2: has a translator.
- 13:56Speaker 4: Matt Erickson's 68. If you're coaching a base, you can.
- 13:59Speaker 2: That's true. You've got to have one on. Am I
- 14:01Speaker 2: crazy or do they have to market that better? Everybody
- 14:04Speaker 2: would want the 00 Murph.
- 14:05Speaker 6: The Murph 00 would be a huge seller.
- 14:09Speaker 5: It's like a double pancake.
- 14:11Speaker 2: Yeah. That's true. That's true. That's true.
- 14:14Speaker 3: Wow.
- 14:14Speaker 2: Well done.
- 14:15Speaker 3: Yes.
- 14:15Speaker 4: But he never wears it.
- 14:16Speaker 2: He never wears it. No, I get it. I get it.
- 14:19Speaker 5: Pat, we need you to wear it.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Obviously, he listens to this all the time.
- 14:21Speaker 4: Speaking of the crew, did you see the guy's star turn?
- 14:25Speaker 4: This is the first time I think the Brewers have
- 14:26Speaker 4: been represented on national TV since a bunch of them
- 14:28Speaker 4: were on General Hospital. It was like Supan and a
- 14:31Speaker 4: bunch of guys.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Remember that? Yeah, and the offensive line were in a
- 14:35Speaker 2: Pitch Perfect 2 or 3. Don't you remember that, Billy?
- 14:39Speaker 2: It was Lang and Bakhtiari. It was all linemen.
- 14:44Speaker 4: But the Brewers on SNL was like otherworldly. It's like
- 14:47Speaker 4: this whole thing about them winning is... is like harder
- 14:50Speaker 4: and surreal. But then seeing them pop up, you know,
- 14:52Speaker 4: with Yelich and Turing and Murph on.
- 14:54Speaker 5: But I felt like they missed a lot. Like they
- 14:56Speaker 5: could have referenced the pocket pancakes on there. Why was
- 14:59Speaker 5: Sal Freelick not on there? Was he still drunk? I
- 15:01Speaker 5: have a lot of questions on that. I thought that
- 15:03Speaker 5: was interesting.
- 15:04Speaker 2: I think Sal Freelick was busy trick-or-treating. That's true. He
- 15:06Speaker 2: was trick-or-treating. Do you want to? He goes, no, I'm
- 15:09Speaker 2: going to go try to get some full-size stickers. They
- 15:11Speaker 2: all have different kind of, not obligations, but they all
- 15:13Speaker 2: have different schedules and things. Who knows?
- 15:15Speaker 5: I know, but I was just surprised because I feel
- 15:17Speaker 5: like if you don't really, like I've had so many
- 15:19Speaker 5: people reach out. They're like, this Sal guy seems like
- 15:21Speaker 5: the man that aren't in Milwaukee or even Wisconsin. And
- 15:24Speaker 5: I feel like obviously Yelich is like kind of the star, right?
- 15:27Speaker 2: He's a captain. He's their best, I'd say, known player,
- 15:30Speaker 2: former MVP, you know.
- 15:31Speaker 5: But I just thought that was interesting. Like, no Sally?
- 15:33Speaker 2: Sally.
- 15:34Speaker 6: We did yesterday top five, you know, our honor of
- 15:37Speaker 6: the polls that were up yesterday. Our top five most
- 15:40Speaker 6: famous Wisconsin athletes right now. And I put Sal as
- 15:44Speaker 6: number five just because of the vibes.
- 15:46Speaker 2: Not player-wise, but he had to be.
- 15:49Speaker 6: In the top five because I don't know anybody that
- 15:51Speaker 6: is talking about the Brewers and not mentioning Sal Frehlich.
- 15:54Speaker 5: For sure. He's like their little golden retriever. So who
- 15:57Speaker 5: else was on the list? Who else was on the
- 15:58Speaker 5: top five?
- 15:59Speaker 2: Started with Miz, number one.
- 16:01Speaker 3: Okay.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Because he's got the Forrest Gump love. He's the best player.
- 16:05Speaker 2: He's a phenomenon.
- 16:06Speaker 6: He's a phenomenon. He's going to win the Cy Young.
- 16:09Speaker 6: Number two was Cheerio. I went Contreras.
- 16:13Speaker 2: Did I go Contreras number three or did I go
- 16:14Speaker 2: Yelich number three? I can't remember. I believe I went.
- 16:16Speaker 6: Contreras number three. Love for Freelick five. So Yelich didn't
- 16:20Speaker 6: even make the list.
- 16:22Speaker 4: Wow.
- 16:22Speaker 2: That's what's so impressive about this team. You could pick
- 16:25Speaker 2: 10 guys. You could come up with so many guys
- 16:27Speaker 2: that could be that guy.
- 16:29Speaker 6: It was hard to even crowbar in the starting quarterback
- 16:32Speaker 6: for the Green Bay Packers.
- 16:33Speaker 5: I was going to say, and some guy named Jordan
- 16:35Speaker 5: Love made the list.
- 16:36Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 16:37Speaker 5: Yeah, it's crazy. Do you feel like the Packers, not
- 16:40Speaker 5: that they got the shaft, but they kind of got
- 16:43Speaker 5: the backseat right now? People are like, oh yeah, I
- 16:45Speaker 5: forgot the Packers.
- 16:45Speaker 2: Are playing too. Oh, they for sure have the backseat.
- 16:48Speaker 5: Which is crazy to think.
- 16:49Speaker 2: Very much crazy. Kind of a good thing for them. Not,
- 16:53Speaker 2: not the.
- 16:54Speaker 5: Worst pressure off a little bit.
- 16:55Speaker 6: Not the worst thing for them to be able to
- 16:57Speaker 6: kind of lay in the weeds in the month of October.
- 16:59Speaker 6: They kind of settled some of their stuff down.
- 17:02Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 17:02Speaker 6: Now they might be ready and poised. This weekend could
- 17:05Speaker 6: be big one. I know you despise that team in blue, red,
- 17:09Speaker 6: and silver. They're going to go take the Patriots on
- 17:11Speaker 6: this weekend.
- 17:11Speaker 2: Oh, they are.
- 17:12Speaker 5: Oh, I hope they blast.
- 17:14Speaker 6: So this is a, it's kind of a big one.
- 17:16Speaker 6: They get the Brady game. Brady in the Foxborough booth.
- 17:20Speaker 6: He hasn't called many games in Foxborough yet. So it's a,
- 17:24Speaker 6: it's kind of a big deal on Fox and three
- 17:25Speaker 6: 25 this week.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Gross.
- 17:26Speaker 5: I don't think Tom Brady is bad at his job.
- 17:28Speaker 5: I actually think he's pretty decent compared to some of
- 17:30Speaker 5: the other guys. But I hate when he's on a
- 17:32Speaker 5: Bills game because there are so many shots fired, and
- 17:35Speaker 5: it just irks me to no end.
- 17:36Speaker 2: But him and Josh are friends.
- 17:38Speaker 5: They are, but he talks about the city of Buffalo,
- 17:41Speaker 5: that kind of stuff.
- 17:42Speaker 2: Oh, it tries to be like Indiana.
- 17:43Speaker 5: Take your shots at the Bills, but you don't have
- 17:44Speaker 5: to take your shots at my hometown.
- 17:46Speaker 2: Brady has really improved, though.
- 17:48Speaker 5: I think he's good.
- 17:49Speaker 4: He's come a long way.
- 17:50Speaker 5: I don't think he's terrible. I like Greg Olson. I
- 17:53Speaker 5: wish there was more of him. He's really good. I
- 17:55Speaker 5: think he might be my favorite.
- 17:56Speaker 2: You might get a lot more Greg Olson.
- 17:59Speaker 6: You might get a lot more Greg Olson on that
- 18:02Speaker 6: Monday Night Football broadcast.
- 18:04Speaker 4: Troy's going to be a free agent soon, so that's
- 18:06Speaker 4: a good point, Billy. But Billy's theory, and Billy's on
- 18:10Speaker 4: a roll with predictions lately.
- 18:12Speaker 5: You think that I hope, I hope you're right.
- 18:13Speaker 4: He thinks that, uh, you know, the Kelsey brothers.
- 18:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 18:16Speaker 6: I think it's going to be Travis, Travis, Jason, Jason
- 18:19Speaker 6: and Travis and Joe Buck.
- 18:21Speaker 5: Oh, I don't, I don't like that. And it's nothing
- 18:23Speaker 5: against them. It's just, you know how there's some celebrities.
- 18:26Speaker 5: They just get so oversaturated. Like Kevin Hart for a while.
- 18:28Speaker 5: You were like, please just.
- 18:30Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
- 18:31Speaker 5: I can't, I can't see you anymore.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 18:34Speaker 5: Um, like I feel like that's going to happen with
- 18:36Speaker 5: Kiki Palmer and I love her, but she's everywhere. I just,
- 18:40Speaker 5: that's how I feel about the Kelsey brothers. especially Kylie Kelsey.
- 18:43Speaker 2: Like I, I.
- 18:44Speaker 5: Can't with that whole thing either. It's just too much.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Yeah. Like the guy from that, what was that popular show? Yeah,
- 18:51Speaker 2: that one. That's really bad, I guess. That one was awesome.
- 18:54Speaker 2: This guy, the guy that was the main character. You
- 18:56Speaker 2: know where they go to the resort and they all die,
- 18:58Speaker 2: they all kill each other.
- 18:59Speaker 5: Oh, the guy with the big forehead?
- 19:00Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. He's everywhere. The White Lotus. Yeah,
- 19:04Speaker 2: White Lotus. The only thing I remembered him from, I
- 19:07Speaker 2: forget his name now, he was on Major League Three
- 19:08Speaker 2: Back to the Minors. He was Billy of Downtown Anderson.
- 19:11Speaker 2: 20 years later, he's on this show, and now he's
- 19:13Speaker 2: on every commercial in America.
- 19:15Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right. He is one of those.
- 19:16Speaker 2: So famous, I can't remember his name of the show.
- 19:18Speaker 5: I have no idea either. It makes me feel any better,
- 19:20Speaker 5: but yeah. That's how I feel about the Kelsey brothers.
- 19:22Speaker 2: White Lotus guy. White Lotus guy.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Yeah. Goggins? Probably.
- 19:27Speaker 2: You brought up Kiki Palmer. I just still can't believe
- 19:29Speaker 2: her Disney Channel show didn't catch on.
- 19:32Speaker 5: I didn't even know she had a Disney Channel.
- 19:33Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
- 19:34Speaker 6: They had a big pilot and everything. I think it
- 19:35Speaker 6: was Kiki and Jamal.
- 19:38Speaker 2: It was a pilot. It was going to be a
- 19:39Speaker 2: hot one. It was going to be a banger. I
- 19:42Speaker 2: love her. They missed out.
- 19:43Speaker 4: I've never watched White Lotus, but Armin, you said the
- 19:45Speaker 4: big forehead guy. That's Walton Goggins.
- 19:47Speaker 5: That's funny that you were like, I know exactly.
- 19:50Speaker 4: Who that is because he's got a big forehead. It's
- 19:52Speaker 4: a five head or a six head.
- 19:54Speaker 2: It's a six head. Laura loved that show, so we
- 19:56Speaker 2: were watching it. It was pretty good, I guess. Yeah, sure.
- 19:58Speaker 5: It was Laura.
- 19:58Speaker 2: That's why you were watching it. Yeah, that's why. I
- 20:00Speaker 2: wouldn't be afraid to admit I liked White Lotus if
- 20:02Speaker 2: you really want me to.
- 20:04Speaker 5: Real quick, non-sports related, if you're looking for something to watch.
- 20:07Speaker 5: the Matthew Perry docu-series on Netflix. Started watching that.
- 20:10Speaker 2: I'll watch it.
- 20:10Speaker 5: Holy, it is so good. Really, really good.
- 20:14Speaker 2: Something to check out.
- 20:14Speaker 5: That's not sports-related in case you need a little sports.
- 20:16Speaker 2: Yeah, we need a little break.
- 20:17Speaker 5: Cleanse your palate.
- 20:18Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good call.
- 20:19Speaker 4: It's a good call to cleanse the palate. Piss the
- 20:21Speaker 4: season to find shows to stream and documentaries to watch.
- 20:24Speaker 5: Something that's not sports, even though we love sports.
- 20:26Speaker 4: In the crock pot and a good series. And a
- 20:29Speaker 4: good documentary or something.
- 20:30Speaker 5: Yeah, it's good.
- 20:31Speaker 2: Megan George said, Yeltsin's on a Wi-Fi bowl with the
- 20:33Speaker 2: Area 1 MVP. All right, there's something. Oh, there we go.
- 20:38Speaker 4: Was Scott Kahn on that show?
- 20:39Speaker 2: That doesn't count. The remake, right?
- 20:41Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 20:41Speaker 2: That was the remake. All right. Shanna, thank you for
- 20:43Speaker 2: popping in. Thank you for having me. Always a pleasure.
- 20:46Speaker 4: We will be right back, and John Greenberg, president of
- 20:47Speaker 4: the Admirals, will join us here in the huddle, Fox
- 20:50Speaker 4: Sports Radio, Wisconsin. We just had the queen of country
- 20:54Speaker 4: music in the studio now on line one of the
- 20:56Speaker 4: NicoletLaw.com talk and text line, El Jefe himself, president of
- 20:59Speaker 4: the Milwaukee Admirals, friend of the huddle, John Greenberg.
- 21:03Speaker 2: Greeny, good afternoon. How are things?
- 21:05Speaker 3: Things are great. How are you doing, boys?
- 21:07Speaker 2: We're good.
- 21:08Speaker 4: We're celebrating the one-week anniversary. What's the traditional gift for
- 21:11Speaker 4: one weekend after you win a championship? What's the traditional
- 21:14Speaker 4: gift that we have?
- 21:16Speaker 3: Well, I think it's probably, frankly, to try and keep
- 21:20Speaker 3: up with Sal.
- 21:20Speaker 2: Yes. Good luck on that one.
- 21:23Speaker 4: That's a good call. That's probably a good call, like
- 21:25Speaker 4: a six-pack or.
- 21:26Speaker 2: A, you know.
- 21:27Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, just a little commemorative kind of a thing. Yeah, absolutely.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Just a little something to remind you.
- 21:34Speaker 6: And listen, if you're going to go out doing some shopping,
- 21:37Speaker 6: you want to check out episode 315 of Let It Simmer.
- 21:40Speaker 6: President of the Milwaukee Admirals, John Greenberg, was a guest
- 21:43Speaker 6: on Aaron Simms' podcast. When you get to celebrate, and
- 21:46Speaker 6: we talked about the excitement, the jubilation, the excitement during
- 21:51Speaker 6: game five on Wednesday night while we're there for a
- 21:55Speaker 6: game and for an Admirals game, the excitement on the
- 21:58Speaker 6: ice matched the highlights that we were able to pump
- 22:01Speaker 6: in during the game.
- 22:02Speaker 2: That was an awesome touch on Wednesday night.
- 22:05Speaker 3: Yeah, frankly, it was a little surreal to do that
- 22:09Speaker 3: and be playing up against that. I was grateful for
- 22:14Speaker 3: all the people who chose to come out. I know
- 22:15Speaker 3: that people were multitasking by watching on their phones or
- 22:20Speaker 3: watching down in the Coors Light chill zone. I had
- 22:22Speaker 3: taken my... I had taken a special seat for the
- 22:26Speaker 3: night in my commemorative Bob Uecker plaid jersey, sitting up
- 22:32Speaker 3: in the corner watching the game. It was very surreal,
- 22:37Speaker 3: but it was great that it all worked out the
- 22:40Speaker 3: way it did. People stuck around afterwards to watch the
- 22:43Speaker 3: end of it. There was a group to be able
- 22:45Speaker 3: to celebrate with. It was a fun night.
- 22:49Speaker 4: When you watch the Brewers execute the parade, and with
- 22:52Speaker 4: help from the city and Summerfest, obviously, it made me think,
- 22:55Speaker 4: what is the Admirals' Calder Cup celebration going to look like?
- 22:59Speaker 2: They're getting it.
- 23:00Speaker 4: Did you crib any ideas? You guys have no shortage
- 23:03Speaker 4: of creative people on your team, Greeny. But I think,
- 23:06Speaker 4: did you get any ideas of what you would do?
- 23:08Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. And, you know, the good thing is,
- 23:12Speaker 3: is when we finish... you know, Caldecom finals finish during
- 23:16Speaker 3: the summer fest really. Um, so, uh, I think we
- 23:19Speaker 3: can just come right back down there and kind of
- 23:21Speaker 3: run it back, but minus, minus the parade a little bit,
- 23:24Speaker 3: but I think the summer fest and, and having some
- 23:27Speaker 3: fun with that would be great. I actually, uh, was
- 23:29Speaker 3: in the amphitheater for the, uh, celebration and I was walking,
- 23:33Speaker 3: I didn't have any admirals gear on at all. And
- 23:35Speaker 3: some guys would somehow recognize me and, said, you know,
- 23:38Speaker 3: go Admirals. And I just turned around and I'm like,
- 23:40Speaker 3: oh yeah, we're next. So, you know, we're looking forward
- 23:44Speaker 3: to being able to do something to be able to celebrate, which,
- 23:47Speaker 3: you know, for me, what would be my first championship
- 23:50Speaker 3: would mean the world to me to celebrate it the
- 23:53Speaker 3: right way.
- 23:54Speaker 6: Well, and much like the Brewers been knocking on the
- 23:56Speaker 6: door for a while now, Greeny, I know that there's,
- 23:59Speaker 6: there's obvious plans for that have to be put in
- 24:01Speaker 6: place and the thought and the foresight is always there
- 24:05Speaker 6: for the next round. But knowing that you've been close,
- 24:07Speaker 6: that does have to feel a little bit serendipitous. You
- 24:12Speaker 6: see the team in, on the baseball side, knocking on
- 24:15Speaker 6: the door and the admirals have been knocking on the.
- 24:16Speaker 4: Door as well.
- 24:17Speaker 2: There are the Caldner cup finals and the championship.
- 24:20Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. And, you know, I had some people say,
- 24:23Speaker 3: it's like, how in the world did they put that together? And,
- 24:25Speaker 3: you know, $ 48, I'm like, why didn't they put that together?
- 24:27Speaker 3: There was a group of people that were sworn to secrecy,
- 24:32Speaker 3: putting all that stuff together. Here, if we're going to
- 24:35Speaker 3: do that, I have some people that are very superstitious
- 24:39Speaker 3: who refer to the hockey gods here on a somewhat
- 24:41Speaker 3: regular basis, and they would not be able to be
- 24:44Speaker 3: part of this because there's no way they'd be able
- 24:45Speaker 3: to mentally put themselves in a position to do it.
- 24:49Speaker 3: But we'd have a creative group of people here to
- 24:51Speaker 3: make sure that we celebrate it the right way.
- 24:53Speaker 6: Yeah, Greeny, I've gotten yelled at enough times when I
- 24:55Speaker 6: mention the Frosty Four when we only have three goals.
- 24:57Speaker 2: Hey, let's lock it up over there. We don't want
- 25:00Speaker 2: to upset anybody and jinx anything right now. That's right.
- 25:04Speaker 6: Hockey people are very superstitious.
- 25:07Speaker 2: You think you're a little stitious? Very superstitious.
- 25:10Speaker 4: John Greenberg joining us, President of Milwaukee Admirals.
- 25:12Speaker 2: MilwaukeeAdmirals.com. Greenberg, let's talk about Saturday night.
- 25:15Speaker 4: You're saluting the military, which is a special night and
- 25:18Speaker 4: a longstanding Admirals tradition.
- 25:20Speaker 3: It is a longstanding tradition that we're very, very proud
- 25:23Speaker 3: to be able to offer each year. And, you know,
- 25:27Speaker 3: for anybody who's current military or a veteran, there are
- 25:31Speaker 3: still tickets available through vettix.org. That's how tickets are acquired
- 25:38Speaker 3: for this game. We have well over 1,000 veterans in
- 25:42Speaker 3: active military and their families coming out just out of
- 25:45Speaker 3: that group. So that is still available if anybody's listening
- 25:48Speaker 3: or you know somebody who thinks they should take advantage
- 25:52Speaker 3: of that deal. But we're doing that. We've also got
- 25:55Speaker 3: a little brewer's touch to the National Anthem. It's Bob Kozlowski.
- 25:59Speaker 3: He's going to be singing the National Anthem for us
- 26:02Speaker 3: on Saturday night. And we also have a lovely gentleman
- 26:08Speaker 3: named John Oberg, who's a Korean War veteran, He's 96
- 26:12Speaker 3: years old, who is going to sing God Bless America.
- 26:14Speaker 3: So we've got the 484th Army Band is going to
- 26:19Speaker 3: entertain during the night. And we've got a gentleman who
- 26:23Speaker 3: has just returned from active duty over in the current conflict,
- 26:29Speaker 3: who is going to be our ceremonial puck dropper. So
- 26:32Speaker 3: It's a really special night, and I really hope people
- 26:35Speaker 3: take advantage of coming down to say thank you to
- 26:39Speaker 3: all these people. And we're also doing a drive to
- 26:43Speaker 3: acquire things for a veterans group that provides items for
- 26:49Speaker 3: those veterans who may need a little bit of extra help.
- 26:53Speaker 3: So please check our website at MilwaukeeAbrams.com for all the
- 26:56Speaker 3: details with that.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 26:57Speaker 2: I'll be there. You guys always do it right. It's
- 26:59Speaker 2: in just hearing Bob sing. I mean, that's worth the
- 27:02Speaker 2: price of admission. I would think, right guys. I mean,
- 27:04Speaker 2: come on. Amazing.
- 27:05Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 27:06Speaker 6: Well, and also the first 2,500 people through the gates
- 27:09Speaker 6: receive a very sweet military themed Admiral shirt coming up
- 27:12Speaker 6: this weekend.
- 27:13Speaker 3: Right. Yep, absolutely. Thanks to our friends from Baird. And
- 27:16Speaker 3: those are size medium and extra large for those. And
- 27:20Speaker 3: I just saw the shirt today for the first time,
- 27:22Speaker 3: and it's very cool. I think people will want to
- 27:24Speaker 3: have one of those. So when you come through the
- 27:26Speaker 3: doors at Panther Arena, you'll be given a voucher, and
- 27:30Speaker 3: then you head down to the Coors Light Chill Zone,
- 27:32Speaker 3: and that's where you redeem your voucher for the shirt
- 27:34Speaker 3: of your preferred size.
- 27:36Speaker 6: Now, Greeny, I know Saturday is the exciting day, and
- 27:39Speaker 6: that's where we can salute the military. We salute all
- 27:42Speaker 6: the second, third, fourth, fifth graders coming up. I'm going
- 27:47Speaker 6: to be there for the school day game coming up
- 27:48Speaker 6: next week. Uh, I do have some very, very awesome
- 27:52Speaker 6: earplugs from our friends from summer fest.
- 27:54Speaker 2: I know that's a winning weekday as well.
- 27:57Speaker 6: Is that, is that, uh, you know, encouragers that potentially
- 28:00Speaker 6: necessary for some urge for those that are coming that, uh,
- 28:04Speaker 6: might not want to reach those decibel levels coming up on.
- 28:07Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, I wholeheartedly, uh, encourage earplugs, uh, Uh, cause, uh,
- 28:13Speaker 3: the maestro, Michael Johowski, uh, he will call for make
- 28:16Speaker 3: noise about 157 times during the course of the game and, uh,
- 28:20Speaker 3: they'll do it. So, uh, they, they, they get loud
- 28:24Speaker 3: and they have fun with it. And, um, you know, it's, uh,
- 28:27Speaker 3: It's an education game too, believe it or not. We
- 28:29Speaker 3: give out workbooks. Three different levels of workbooks. We do
- 28:34Speaker 3: a little bit of science, a little bit of geography,
- 28:35Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. Teachers can feel like it's not
- 28:39Speaker 3: just a totally wasted day to blow off steam. We're
- 28:42Speaker 3: going to actually teach you something.
- 28:43Speaker 2: It's a very important part of any field trip is
- 28:45Speaker 2: the educational part. You always make sure you get the
- 28:47Speaker 2: educational in there. That was always a big thing when
- 28:50Speaker 2: you went on that field trip. I always go through
- 28:51Speaker 2: the workbook first myself to see how many I can answer,
- 28:53Speaker 2: to see if I can beat a fifth grader. That's
- 28:56Speaker 2: always fun, but If you like an electric atmosphere, this
- 28:58Speaker 2: is the one. I mean, there is so much energy and,
- 29:02Speaker 2: you know, thoughts and prayers to everyone working the bubble
- 29:04Speaker 2: waffle stand because they're going.
- 29:05Speaker 3: To have their work done. Good luck, yeah.
- 29:06Speaker 2: I mean, that's going to be a long one. So
- 29:08Speaker 2: you have an interesting– obviously those games coming up at
- 29:11Speaker 2: the arena are going to be exciting, and then there's
- 29:13Speaker 2: some time on the road, but an interesting kind of
- 29:15Speaker 2: schedule on the road coming up, some places I know
- 29:18Speaker 2: that we don't normally see, opponents we don't normally see, Wilkes-Barre, Hartford,
- 29:21Speaker 2: I think Providence as well. So that's kind of an
- 29:24Speaker 2: interesting East Coast jaunt, John.
- 29:27Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely. We wanted to get some different teams on
- 29:29Speaker 3: the schedule this year, and that road trip's coming up. So,
- 29:33Speaker 3: you know, we could fly into Wilkes-Barre and then bus
- 29:36Speaker 3: over to Hartford and, take the quick 25-minute ride from
- 29:41Speaker 3: Hartford to Providence. So it's an easy trip for us
- 29:44Speaker 3: to make and see some different teams. You'll see the
- 29:47Speaker 3: affiliates of the Penguins, the Rangers, and the Bruins, which
- 29:50Speaker 3: we don't normally see. And those teams will all be
- 29:52Speaker 3: coming to Milwaukee at some point during the course of
- 29:54Speaker 3: the season as well. So it's a chance to let
- 29:58Speaker 3: our fans see a little something different. And I know
- 30:01Speaker 3: our guys really appreciate that, too. Last year's schedule was hard.
- 30:04Speaker 3: We played 36 games, half of our schedule, against three teams.
- 30:08Speaker 3: And that gets... A little tiresome. So to be able
- 30:11Speaker 3: to mix it up a little bit is something I
- 30:13Speaker 3: know the guys are looking forward to.
- 30:15Speaker 4: I was just looking at the schedule, Greeny, and you're
- 30:18Speaker 4: playing the Iowa Wild on Saturday night for your salute
- 30:21Speaker 4: to service and the veterans. And then they're also in
- 30:24Speaker 4: for the school game Tuesday. In between, they have a
- 30:26Speaker 4: game Sunday in the afternoon against Rockford. So are they
- 30:31Speaker 4: going to anchor in Milwaukee and travel to Rockford and
- 30:33Speaker 4: come back and use Milwaukee as a home base? What
- 30:35Speaker 4: do you think that their logistics will be? And, oh,
- 30:37Speaker 4: they start the runoff tomorrow with a school day game
- 30:40Speaker 4: at home. So they have two school day games in
- 30:42Speaker 4: five days.
- 30:43Speaker 2: What do the analytics say doing that?
- 30:47Speaker 3: I don't know, but I would tell you that if
- 30:49Speaker 3: they're smart, they'll spend their whole time in Milwaukee. you
- 30:53Speaker 3: really don't necessarily want to do it in the place
- 30:55Speaker 3: in between. But no, be in Milwaukee. Absolutely. It's the
- 31:00Speaker 3: city of champions, and that's where you want to be.
- 31:02Speaker 2: The armpit of the Midwest?
- 31:04Speaker 4: Well, give it a choice. Would you rather be in
- 31:05Speaker 4: Milwaukee or Rockford?
- 31:06Speaker 2: I mean, come on.
- 31:06Speaker 6: It's not even a thought. Ten times out of ten,
- 31:09Speaker 6: you could tell me the room was haunted, and I'd
- 31:11Speaker 6: still want to be in Milwaukee.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Well, they got the All-Star game, didn't they? Guaranteed.
- 31:16Speaker 3: They did have the All-Star game, and they did a
- 31:19Speaker 3: nice job with it, and people had a good time,
- 31:21Speaker 3: and We left as fast as we could.
- 31:24Speaker 2: Well, there must have been an Applebee's or something there.
- 31:26Speaker 2: There must have been something. The shuttles were hot that night,
- 31:31Speaker 2: that's for sure. Hey, HL, we want it next. Come
- 31:34Speaker 2: to Milwaukee. We can put an All-Star game on. That's
- 31:36Speaker 2: what we want next.
- 31:38Speaker 3: One of these days.
- 31:39Speaker 2: Due time.
- 31:40Speaker 3: One of these days. This year we're going to Cleveland,
- 31:42Speaker 3: which will be great.
- 31:43Speaker 2: That's a good market.
- 31:45Speaker 3: They'll do a wonderful job there. And we haven't heard
- 31:47Speaker 3: about the year after, but we've got some plans. It's
- 31:50Speaker 3: kind of percolating. And we know that Milwaukee can pull
- 31:53Speaker 3: off big things. We just saw that last week.
- 31:55Speaker 2: Oh, yes.
- 31:56Speaker 3: We're pretty sure we can make a party out of
- 31:59Speaker 3: an all-star game in Milwaukee.
- 32:00Speaker 2: When Greeny says we've got some plans, that's when I
- 32:02Speaker 2: get excited. I know he's got something in the hopper
- 32:04Speaker 2: right there. So that's good. I love it. That's classic.
- 32:08Speaker 4: The jokes write themselves about Rockford. The best things that
- 32:10Speaker 4: come out of Rockford, the Hall of Fame band Cheap
- 32:13Speaker 4: Trick and I-90.
- 32:14Speaker 2: I-90, yes. The first freaking thing smoking. Absolutely.
- 32:20Speaker 4: Cheap Trick, which has played at post-game concerts with the
- 32:23Speaker 4: Admirals in the past as well.
- 32:25Speaker 2: Legendary.
- 32:26Speaker 3: Absolutely, yes. They have, and.
- 32:30Speaker 3: We've got a couple of concert announcements coming up over
- 32:32Speaker 3: the next two weeks, so keep your ears perked for those.
- 32:37Speaker 6: And I already know Dustin Lynch in February has some
- 32:39Speaker 6: people very excited. We talked to the queen of country music,
- 32:42Speaker 6: as you said, our friend Shanna Quinn, FM 106. That's
- 32:45Speaker 6: a show that a lot of people are going to
- 32:47Speaker 6: be wanting to see coming up on February.
- 32:50Speaker 3: 27th, yeah, February 27th, and tickets are moving. So if
- 32:54Speaker 3: you're interested in that, I wouldn't wait until February 26th.
- 32:58Speaker 1: No.
- 32:58Speaker 6: And if you're one of the if you're one of us,
- 33:01Speaker 6: the huddlers that is listening to us and potentially of
- 33:04Speaker 6: the single variety.
- 33:05Speaker 2: OK, that show might be one that might.
- 33:08Speaker 6: Be a show that you and the boys want to
- 33:09Speaker 6: get tickets to. I would just suggest that might be
- 33:12Speaker 6: one that you would want to have tickets to, because
- 33:14Speaker 6: I think the clientele might be pretty rich there at
- 33:17Speaker 6: the Dustin Lynch concert.
- 33:18Speaker 2: Might be a good one to be able to go to.
- 33:21Speaker 2: That seems like a great idea, Billy.
- 33:22Speaker 6: Listen, you've got to help yourself out every once in
- 33:25Speaker 6: a while. You've got to put the line in the water,
- 33:27Speaker 6: and Dustin Lynch is the right one to be able
- 33:29Speaker 6: to hit your wagon. And just a general, Admiral's game
- 33:32Speaker 6: is an underrated date night.
- 33:33Speaker 2: Let me tell you. Oh, I've said that for years.
- 33:34Speaker 2: Very underrated date night. People don't think about it. Two halftimes. Yeah.
- 33:38Speaker 6: And the guy that plays jokes or plays games with
- 33:41Speaker 6: people on the Jumbotron is phenomenal.
- 33:43Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 33:44Speaker 2: He's just, you know, he's always there for the vibes.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Right.
- 33:47Speaker 3: Right.
- 33:48Speaker 4: Greeny, thanks for joining us. We hope you have a
- 33:50Speaker 4: great weekend with the Salute to Veterans.
- 33:52Speaker 2: That's awesome.
- 33:52Speaker 4: And then when we reconvene, it'll be the day after
- 33:55Speaker 4: the school day game.
- 33:56Speaker 2: That's going to be epic.
- 33:57Speaker 3: Yes. In between all of that, I'm squeezing in a
- 34:00Speaker 3: trip to Toronto to see Pecorine go in the Hall
- 34:02Speaker 3: of Fame.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Oh, I love that.
- 34:04Speaker 3: We'll have more to talk about next week for sure.
- 34:06Speaker 2: Fantastic.
- 34:06Speaker 4: That sounds fantastic. Thanks for joining us, Greeny. We appreciate it.
- 34:09Speaker 3: Thanks, boys.
- 34:10Speaker 4: John Greenberg, president of the Milwaukee Admirals, friend of the huddle.
- 34:14Speaker 2: Pecorine. Bad boy. One of the great admirals of all time.
- 34:19Speaker 2: Put him up there with all the greats. No doubt. Well-deserved, too.
- 34:23Speaker 2: That's awesome.
- 34:24Speaker 4: Hall of Fame dude and a Hall of Fame player
- 34:26Speaker 4: for sure. When we come back, we'll close up shop
- 34:29Speaker 4: and we'll get to our 420 story that we didn't
- 34:31Speaker 4: get to yet, but we will. And we'll remind people
- 34:33Speaker 4: to use the code HUDDLE for 25% off and free
- 34:36Speaker 4: shipping at happyplacehemp.com because that's the way we roll. Rob
- 34:40Speaker 4: and Chris make the best CBD products you'll find anywhere.
- 34:43Speaker 4: And let's face it, we talked about Dinner in the
- 34:46Speaker 4: crock pot, a documentary or a series to binge on
- 34:49Speaker 4: Netflix and a little drift seltzer.
- 34:51Speaker 2: That's the recipe. That's a pretty good way to kill
- 34:56Speaker 2: a winter night to me. You better believe it. That's
- 34:58Speaker 2: getting you over the hump on a Wednesday. That's right.
- 35:00Speaker 2: That's right. You're in the huddle.
- 35:01Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Made it over the hump already.
- 35:10Speaker 4: That's pretty impressive. And closer to the weekend, getting closer
- 35:13Speaker 4: to another badger football tilt.
- 35:15Speaker 2: Yes.
- 35:15Speaker 6: Packers Patriots. Both games are going to be good. I'm
- 35:19Speaker 6: predicting a sweep this weekend. Ooh, early, early prediction for
- 35:24Speaker 6: a sweep this weekend. Most importantly, it starts out. Badgers
- 35:27Speaker 6: are going to a bad week to be a Scarlet
- 35:30Speaker 6: golden night or a Scarlet night.
- 35:31Speaker 2: It better be.
- 35:32Speaker 6: It better be a bad week to be a Scarlet
- 35:34Speaker 6: night because the badgers need to feast on the sea.
- 35:38Speaker 2: It should be a chicken soup game. You would hope.
- 35:41Speaker 6: Also, I mean, celebrating the military, like we just talked
- 35:43Speaker 6: about with John Greenberg, it's the salute to military game.
- 35:46Speaker 6: Celebrate military veterans at Camp Randall. That's always a very,
- 35:50Speaker 6: very touching moment and a very important day when you
- 35:53Speaker 6: celebrate all those who have served at Camp Randall, which
- 35:57Speaker 6: we already know.
- 35:58Speaker 2: There you go. That's why it's there. Yeah, fantastic.
- 36:01Speaker 6: All right, we need a mention of a 420 story.
- 36:06Speaker 6: So we've got a couple of candidates. I was going
- 36:09Speaker 6: to say, I fired up a couple of possibilities here. Now, listen,
- 36:13Speaker 6: whenever Chris Hansen is streaming, I think that's, let's just
- 36:15Speaker 6: do the Chris.
- 36:16Speaker 2: Is that always a possibility? He's trending. He's trending here.
- 36:19Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 36:19Speaker 6: Chris Hansen is trending. When, once you get to a
- 36:23Speaker 6: certain age, am I the only one that immediately gets nervous? Oh,
- 36:28Speaker 6: I see a name trending of a certain age and
- 36:30Speaker 6: I immediately get nervous.
- 36:31Speaker 2: We can't get him like.
- 36:32Speaker 6: Instead, Chris Hansen. Is Vince Carter today? If I got
- 36:36Speaker 6: one left in me, apparently Chris Hansen was on the
- 36:40Speaker 6: online beat drew of getting the catching the fate rather
- 36:47Speaker 6: infamous right now. Apparently YouTuber EDP four, four or five
- 36:53Speaker 6: who they are apparently finding and that he is going
- 36:56Speaker 6: to be facing up to 30 years in prison for
- 36:59Speaker 6: for soliciting underage minors. Chris Hansen of Catch a Predator
- 37:04Speaker 6: fame from what?
- 37:06Speaker 2: 20-some years ago? Yeah, it was the late 2000s.
- 37:09Speaker 6: When he would walk in and somebody would have a
- 37:11Speaker 6: pizza sitting there and say, what's the pizza here for?
- 37:13Speaker 2: Who are you here to meet? Not a 13-year-old girl.
- 37:16Speaker 2: How's the cookie? You like that? You like that? Who
- 37:19Speaker 2: are you here to meet? Why are you here to
- 37:20Speaker 2: meet a 13-year-old girl? It's funny because I got a
- 37:22Speaker 2: chat right here.
- 37:23Speaker 4: Why did you bring schnapps and condoms out?
- 37:26Speaker 2: What were your intentions? You were just going to talk
- 37:29Speaker 2: and can mentor. You were going to mentor her. Is
- 37:31Speaker 2: that what you got? What it is here? Not what
- 37:34Speaker 2: you said here. When you want to blank, blank, blank.
- 37:36Speaker 2: So Chris Hanson apparently still got it in him. He
- 37:39Speaker 2: is not retired.
- 37:40Speaker 6: They're making movies about Chris Hanson's to catch a predator deal,
- 37:44Speaker 6: which we talked about with Matt Miller yesterday. I still
- 37:46Speaker 6: got to be able to see, I still got to
- 37:47Speaker 6: go and watch Robert Pattinson's one, but instead drew, apparently
- 37:50Speaker 6: you don't even have to see the old, old ones
- 37:52Speaker 6: because my man, Chris Hanson's still doing it. That, We'll
- 37:56Speaker 6: make you believe that you woke up in a happy place.
- 37:58Speaker 6: I'm drift seltzer dream of wait.
- 38:02Speaker 2: Chris Hansen. What year is this? It's 2011. Chris Hansen, 2026.
- 38:07Speaker 2: Brewers with a world series. Chris Hansen. What year is this? Nuts. Nuts.
- 38:12Speaker 2: Chris Hansen still doing it.
- 38:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 38:13Speaker 2: So there you go. And apparently there's a community of,
- 38:16Speaker 2: I don't know about the internet. They're like, they're all
- 38:17Speaker 2: arguing about who should get the credit. Some guy wants
- 38:19Speaker 2: more credit. I got to dive deeper into this bill.
- 38:22Speaker 2: You know, I do.
- 38:24Speaker 4: We know you will.
- 38:25Speaker 6: I was going to say, I'm excited to know, Drew,
- 38:27Speaker 6: that I don't have to see any of it.
- 38:30Speaker 2: Armin's going to give me a.
- 38:32Speaker 6: Full book report style essay of what happened.
- 38:35Speaker 2: This used to hit the algo a lot more. I
- 38:37Speaker 2: don't know why I lost my algorithm on all this content.
- 38:40Speaker 2: So I'm going to have to find it again and
- 38:43Speaker 2: dig into some of this stuff. But yeah, I mean, listen,
- 38:46Speaker 2: there's no retirement in his game. He's still out there
- 38:49Speaker 2: doing it. He ain't quitting, dude.
- 38:50Speaker 4: Armand's going to tell you everything that happened there and
- 38:52Speaker 4: then go through the 94 Western Conference Finals.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll add that in there. Which is forgotten about
- 38:57Speaker 2: is a really good one. Yeah, that's a really, really
- 38:58Speaker 2: good one. Forgotten about a really good one.
- 39:01Speaker 1: Absolutely. Absolutely.
- 39:02Speaker 2: Rockets to us. You guys have any more? We have
- 39:05Speaker 2: two minutes. Any more hot takes on Humpty? My only
- 39:08Speaker 2: one today was at a random. You got one here.
- 39:10Speaker 2: I had a random thought that I said, are we
- 39:11Speaker 2: talking about Robert Gasser enough? I feel like we've been
- 39:14Speaker 2: enjoying everybody, but we've got to talk about Robert Gasser
- 39:18Speaker 2: a little more. I don't know. I thought he had
- 39:20Speaker 2: an amazing playoff, and he seems to be going a
- 39:22Speaker 2: little under under the radar here. Well, let's talk. That's all.
- 39:26Speaker 2: Let's talk about his name today. All right. Diesel. Why not?
- 39:31Speaker 6: Well, he's, he's definitely one of the guys that has
- 39:33Speaker 6: solidified drew that they won the Josh Hader trade.
- 39:37Speaker 2: I mean, exactly.
- 39:38Speaker 6: Whether Willie, if William Contreras wasn't enough, they ended up
- 39:41Speaker 6: getting Robert Gasser for five years out of it after his,
- 39:44Speaker 6: his elbow injury.
- 39:45Speaker 2: I think, He was kind of the crown jewel of
- 39:47Speaker 2: that one. He sure as hell pitched like it.
- 39:49Speaker 4: Bobby Gasser won games at three of the toughest venues
- 39:52Speaker 4: in the major leagues.
- 39:53Speaker 2: Yeah, his numbers are crazy.
- 39:54Speaker 4: Dodger Stadium in the tropics.
- 39:56Speaker 6: Didn't he look swaggier every time he did it? I mean,
- 39:59Speaker 6: that's six-inning performance. Granted, it helps when you get a
- 40:02Speaker 6: 10-run lead at one point in it, but that can
- 40:05Speaker 6: be one of the tougher ones to pitch with when
- 40:06Speaker 6: he sits there for 35 minutes as the Brewer barrage
- 40:09Speaker 6: goes through in the fifth inning.
- 40:10Speaker 2: He grew the playoff Fu Manchu or whatever. I don't
- 40:13Speaker 2: know what it is. He grew it, though.
- 40:14Speaker 6: So he did also. And this is one of the
- 40:17Speaker 6: other reasons why Armin, I'm glad your hot take was
- 40:19Speaker 6: that we need to be talking more about Bob, Bobby Gasser,
- 40:23Speaker 6: his strut off the mound on the strikeout was one
- 40:25Speaker 6: of the better is one of the better on field
- 40:29Speaker 6: videos and.
- 40:30Speaker 2: Memes to come out of this.
- 40:32Speaker 6: Cause to tie it all the way back at two
- 40:33Speaker 6: o'clock when we started this thing and drew asked, are
- 40:36Speaker 6: we watching more baseball highlights?
- 40:39Speaker 2: Or parade highlights.
- 40:41Speaker 6: That's one of the few memes drew from this run
- 40:43Speaker 6: that I do believe is coming out of it from
- 40:45Speaker 6: the field, him strutting off, not full on Conor McGregor,
- 40:51Speaker 6: but I like Robert Gasser a lot more. So I
- 40:53Speaker 6: think I'm going to do the Bobby gas strut a
- 40:55Speaker 6: lot more than I'm going to do the McGregor full
- 40:57Speaker 6: on swag. He wasn't toned it down a tick, but
- 41:00Speaker 6: he was letting you know, he was a boss walking
- 41:02Speaker 6: off there.
- 41:03Speaker 2: You need that. Pretty cool. Three starts, 15 innings, one
- 41:05Speaker 2: run allowed,. 6 ERA, and six shutouts in the World Series.
- 41:09Speaker 2: That ain't bad. I don't care who you are. That's pretty,
- 41:12Speaker 2: pretty good. Pretty good. No doubt.
- 41:15Speaker 4: Happy first anniversary. First week anniversary.
- 41:18Speaker 2: I like these.
- 41:19Speaker 4: These are really going to hit. Greeny was right. You
- 41:21Speaker 4: can either have a beer with Sal or you can
- 41:23Speaker 4: just get iced or something. Just take a knee and
- 41:27Speaker 4: shotgun that ice.
- 41:29Speaker 6: I think an ice might be a nice little change-up
- 41:31Speaker 6: for Sal because as much as we all love high life,
- 41:34Speaker 6: I think he's probably had a lot.
- 41:36Speaker 2: No question. No question.
- 41:37Speaker 4: All right, we are back at it. Tomorrow will be
- 41:39Speaker 4: a day closer to the weekend. See you at 2 o'clock.
- 41:42Speaker 3: Peace.
