0:02
Speaker 1: o'clock Clubbers, Welcome to the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin,
0:05
Speaker 1: Drew Olsen, Bill Schmid, armand sorry and bringing it to
0:07
Speaker 1: you nin twenty Milwaukee ten seventy Medison everywhere in the art, app, streaming, live, Facebook,
0:12
Speaker 1: x and YouTube. I have a feeling it's gonna be
0:14
Speaker 1: a glorious day. It might rain a little bit in
0:17
Speaker 1: spotty places, and I have a feeling it's going to
0:19
Speaker 1: be a glorious weekend because we got so much on
0:23
Speaker 1: our plate. Buckle up Brewers Braves this afternoon, three o'clock,
0:28
Speaker 1: first pitch probably three ten miss Rowski against Sale, best
0:33
Speaker 1: pitching matchup that we're going to see this season. And
0:36
Speaker 1: then Brewers Braves again tomorrow, and then Sunday and Williamsport,
0:41
Speaker 1: Packers Broncos tonight. We've got all that coverage for you,
0:44
Speaker 1: holstered up along with Packers ot Billy.
0:47
Speaker 2: We're gonna have to double caffein eight.
0:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say, Drew, I actually almost woke
0:52
Speaker 3: I woke up before the alarm today, and that's when
0:55
Speaker 3: you know you wake up with as coach Lafour said,
0:57
Speaker 3: sometimes you just got to.
0:58
Speaker 2: Wake up with it hot.
1:00
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and when you wake up with it hot,
1:01
Speaker 3: you know that double shot of espresso is not gonna
1:04
Speaker 3: be enough, but it is gonna be a good start
1:07
Speaker 3: and a kickstart, because we're gonna have to uh and
1:10
Speaker 3: we're gonna have to play maybe some kickstart my heart
1:11
Speaker 3: later on, later on tonight, because we're gonna have to
1:13
Speaker 3: fire this thing up throughout the day, throughout the night,
1:15
Speaker 3: because there's no nap day, there's no nap time. Even
1:17
Speaker 3: if your arm and sorry and you're trying to squeeze
1:19
Speaker 3: one in right before first pitch, No, I missed that.
1:24
Speaker 2: In that one.
1:24
Speaker 3: I don't I don't necessarily know that you're trying to squeeze.
1:26
Speaker 3: But I like, I like where your head's at. I
1:27
Speaker 3: like I like that your head. I like that your
1:29
Speaker 3: head's waking up in the gutter at five oh four.
1:32
Speaker 3: But we're gonna have to be ready to roll later
1:34
Speaker 3: on here tonight, because we're gonna get some starters for
1:37
Speaker 3: a couple of moments. Yeah, for a couple of brief moments.
1:40
Speaker 3: They may be fleeting Drew. These aren't the good old days,
1:43
Speaker 3: but it will do.
1:44
Speaker 2: It'll do start my starters right kickstart, my kickstarters, my heart.
1:49
Speaker 2: Maybe keep trying, keep trying. It might be, might not
1:54
Speaker 2: be a nap day, might be keep I have to
1:56
Speaker 2: get something, And I mean, it's gonna be. It's almost
1:58
Speaker 2: a twenty four hour day. It's a twenty two hour
2:00
Speaker 2: day for us. It's gonna be nuts. Yeah, because we're beyond.
2:02
Speaker 1: We could potentially be on the air until two am
2:05
Speaker 1: with Packers ot with an eight o'clock kickoff possible. But
2:09
Speaker 1: yet yeah, you know, sports works and cycles and I
2:11
Speaker 1: always talk about regression to the mean, and it's my
2:13
Speaker 1: favorite sports theory because it's true. But Week one preseason
2:19
Speaker 1: was just last Friday. It seems like a month ago already,
2:21
Speaker 1: doesn't It's been a while.
2:22
Speaker 2: Yep.
2:22
Speaker 1: It's like, what do we remember about the Packers and Steelers?
2:25
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, well it was. It seems like a
2:28
Speaker 1: long time. We've pretty much done a physical memory dump
2:30
Speaker 1: of what we saw in that game.
2:32
Speaker 2: Somehow I remember just enough of.
2:36
Speaker 1: Like I just didn't play and okay, Mason Rudolph anyway,
2:40
Speaker 1: what uh what what we saw in that game? Twenty penalties,
2:45
Speaker 1: like five reviews. It was a slog. Maybe this one will.
2:50
Speaker 2: Be more crisp at altitude.
2:52
Speaker 3: What you can only hope drew and you can only
2:54
Speaker 3: hope that it can't that it's not as bad as
2:56
Speaker 3: the last time they went and played a preseason game
2:58
Speaker 3: in Denver, and uh, you know, we we did an
3:00
Speaker 3: elongated postgame show last week. We did a very long
3:04
Speaker 3: postgame if I remember correctly, of the twenty seven to
3:08
Speaker 3: two decision that happened in Denver a few years ago.
3:12
Speaker 3: I think it was twenty four maybe like the second
3:14
Speaker 3: preseason game they played, no starters played. It was after
3:17
Speaker 3: they ran the joint practice. They were there for a week.
3:20
Speaker 3: It felt like it was actually like a long three
3:23
Speaker 3: and a half days. We'll talk about it with the
3:24
Speaker 3: voice of the Packers, Wayne Lairviye when he stops by
3:26
Speaker 3: from the mile get High City in the seven o'clock hour.
3:28
Speaker 3: But it was a long slog of a week and
3:34
Speaker 3: the game ended up even being worse. So like that
3:36
Speaker 3: that part, it can't be as bad as that one.
3:39
Speaker 3: But I don't want to attempt the sports gods because
3:42
Speaker 3: it is preseason football. It is closer to UFL than NFL.
3:46
Speaker 2: And this one is once we get Bonix in and out,
3:50
Speaker 2: Jordan Love in and out, gonna be a good test
3:52
Speaker 2: of your depth. That did not show all that creat
3:55
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter in Pittsburgh. Yeah, and a good test.
3:58
Speaker 2: You're remembering that as a good test of your debt
4:00
Speaker 2: because I was impressed. You remember what happened in the
4:02
Speaker 2: preseason a couple years But you're right, that was the
4:04
Speaker 2: bon Knicks like joined Practice the Bow show where all
4:07
Speaker 2: these reporters were breathlessly talking about how great he was
4:10
Speaker 2: in that one and how he was I think Diana
4:12
Speaker 2: was one of them actually too. He wasn't for sure
4:15
Speaker 2: the starter at that point. Yeah, no, definitely not. He
4:17
Speaker 2: was a rookie, right, I think so. Yeah, So obviously,
4:20
Speaker 2: uh yeah, that was one I And obviously last year's
4:23
Speaker 2: opener wasn't good. So it just goes to show you
4:25
Speaker 2: don't know what's gonna happen too much based on the
4:27
Speaker 2: preseason results. But hey, maybe tonight'll be a good one.
4:31
Speaker 2: Looking for our first win still, so let's go get
4:33
Speaker 2: it tonight, maybe go get it. Yeah, yeah, let's go
4:36
Speaker 2: get it. And if not, deal, Honestly, it just really
4:40
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. Just where was then Denver didn't matter to you.
4:43
Speaker 1: Whereas the local baseball club got a victory yesterday is
4:47
Speaker 1: during six run first inning. They score and runs and
4:50
Speaker 1: bunches these days. And then a key insurance blast from
4:53
Speaker 1: mister Garrett Mitchell, who had himself a big day. Who's
4:56
Speaker 1: our number one? Garrett Mitchell fan on the talking text
4:58
Speaker 1: line our boy on on the YouTube comments face Dobbler,
5:03
Speaker 1: we'd respect you more. Come on now, two doubles, a
5:05
Speaker 1: dinger and an expecting child.
5:08
Speaker 2: And child, hey you get some dad strength. It works
5:10
Speaker 2: out very well. Now Mitchell won the day yesterday.
5:12
Speaker 3: Were they waiting for the announcement for Garrett to bust
5:15
Speaker 3: out of the slump that he was in or was
5:17
Speaker 3: it just a hey, you know what we're going to
5:19
Speaker 3: tell everybody later today, so just relaxed a little bit.
5:22
Speaker 1: Well, he would have thought he would have done it,
5:25
Speaker 1: you know, empty the empty the chamber on after a
5:28
Speaker 1: twenty two nothing game when he got three.
5:30
Speaker 2: Hits, right true, Yeah, And he's like, all right now
5:32
Speaker 2: I'm fully out of slump, so now you can let
5:35
Speaker 2: it run. But I thought about that. It's like, well,
5:37
Speaker 2: we can announce this anytime within these next like three weeks.
5:40
Speaker 2: Let's wait till you have a good day, Garrett.
5:42
Speaker 1: And you know, yeah, and so he's you know he's
5:46
Speaker 1: got that going for him, which is nice.
5:48
Speaker 3: That would also be a lot more thinking into it
5:49
Speaker 3: when in all reality somebody that has now had one
5:52
Speaker 3: announcement of a baby and then one that we forgot
5:54
Speaker 3: to put out about the second baby, because that's kind
5:57
Speaker 3: of what happens. I guess with the second kid, they
5:58
Speaker 3: just kind of they happened, and then they're live their life,
6:00
Speaker 3: rolls on as everything else is happening. He probably had
6:03
Speaker 3: zero say yeah, zero ideas, zero say oh sweet, we
6:06
Speaker 3: are letting everybody know, all right cool. I just got
6:09
Speaker 3: eight hundred Instagram messages while I was out playing, so
6:12
Speaker 3: I guess I can say it to the guys that
6:13
Speaker 3: are talking that we're talking to you here.
6:15
Speaker 2: Might as well the letter rip.
6:17
Speaker 3: Thanks, thanks, thanks, babe, appreciate you letting me let the
6:20
Speaker 3: cat out of the bag. But it's also nice when
6:22
Speaker 3: the short stroke that he puts in backspins that one out.
6:26
Speaker 3: Julio Rodriguez just kept drifting back, drifting back. I thought
6:28
Speaker 3: he was going to do a PCA drew and try
6:30
Speaker 3: robbing that thing when it was gonna hit off the
6:31
Speaker 3: batter's eye, because that thing just kept spinning and carrying
6:35
Speaker 3: right out.
6:35
Speaker 2: Of that place. Looked like he had a beat on
6:37
Speaker 2: it off the bet right, or at least the way
6:39
Speaker 2: he was drifting back. But you're right, Billy, it's all
6:41
Speaker 2: about that backspin, and he had it. That was pretty good.
6:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, reach us, Reach us today, please early and often,
6:48
Speaker 1: because it's going to be a long day.
6:49
Speaker 2: Eight seven seven seven nine seven three.
6:51
Speaker 1: One thing that could make this day shorter is a
6:53
Speaker 1: lot of audience participation between five and eight.
6:56
Speaker 2: Yeah.
6:56
Speaker 3: And this is the regression of the mean that you
6:58
Speaker 3: talk about as well. Like, the aggression to the mean
7:01
Speaker 3: for us is working significantly the longer hours, right, Like,
7:04
Speaker 3: because in the midst of now, the offseason, we have
7:07
Speaker 3: gone through days where it's in and out, turn and burn,
7:09
Speaker 3: and people like, what do you what do you guys
7:11
Speaker 3: do after eight o'clock?
7:13
Speaker 2: What do you guys do after eight o'clock?
7:14
Speaker 3: We get ready for football season, and this is when
7:16
Speaker 3: we get to shine throughout the day.
7:19
Speaker 2: I know that it is a long day.
7:20
Speaker 3: I know that it's gonna be tough, but this is
7:22
Speaker 3: when champions are made. So let's let's put on a
7:25
Speaker 3: little smile. Let's fire it on up here for a game.
7:27
Speaker 2: Dad. I feel like our dobbers are down a little
7:30
Speaker 2: bit here in the morning. Oh it's okay, it's it's
7:32
Speaker 2: one of those things, Billy. You got to get the
7:34
Speaker 2: train pushed and started, all right, and today it's the
7:37
Speaker 2: Gareth Mitchell hype train. But it's a long one. See,
7:40
Speaker 2: it's the momentum, right. It's a slow start, slow start,
7:42
Speaker 2: but once you get that thing pushing, and that's just
7:44
Speaker 2: like us today, we're gonna be rolling and rolling fast today.
7:47
Speaker 2: So I believe in our ability. Maybe our douber will
7:49
Speaker 2: be up. We just gotta get a going a little
7:51
Speaker 2: bit here. But you know, as the minutes tick away,
7:53
Speaker 2: in the hours tick away, it'll be going well today.
7:56
Speaker 2: So I have a good confidence in that. Especially if
7:59
Speaker 2: the brewis roll out up and Miz rolls up and
8:01
Speaker 2: dominates Sale, that would be pretty nice, you know, that
8:03
Speaker 2: would be a good way to get That would be nice.
8:05
Speaker 2: That would be nice if you beat a future Hall
8:07
Speaker 2: of Famer. So let's see what happens there. Uh. But
8:10
Speaker 2: a lot of our a lot of our listeners, a
8:12
Speaker 2: lot of the five o'clock clubers in early to get
8:14
Speaker 2: get us going a little bit pink and bingo, good
8:16
Speaker 2: morning guys. Sounds like a nap kind of day. Well
8:20
Speaker 2: maybe I don't know. For some I mean, you know,
8:21
Speaker 2: it's great to be for me to nap by the pool,
8:23
Speaker 2: But I heard it's going to rain. Yeah, that's that's
8:25
Speaker 2: kind of a moment that might suck real wild troop,
8:28
Speaker 2: looks like we have a new five o'clock cluber here.
8:30
Speaker 2: This is usually not not my time of day to
8:32
Speaker 2: be alive. Baby. Is it too late to join the
8:34
Speaker 2: five o'clock club. Hell no, it's not too year early.
8:37
Speaker 2: That's the whole idea. You're in the five o'clock club,
8:40
Speaker 2: and we get you a number here.
8:41
Speaker 1: By the way, we should be doing robust business today
8:44
Speaker 1: because man, the crowd at the why was epic today.
8:47
Speaker 2: It's like a nightclub.
8:48
Speaker 3: Well, listen, it's Friday. You want to make sure that
8:50
Speaker 3: you get it in and let it run, get the pump.
8:52
Speaker 3: And also it's the end of summer. So it's kind
8:55
Speaker 3: of that that question, that realization of dang, I probably
9:00
Speaker 3: missed out on my summer body. It's right, I missed
9:02
Speaker 3: out on the best summer body of my life. But
9:04
Speaker 3: now I'm going to kick start it for next year
9:06
Speaker 3: because I'm just gonna not fall into you definitely will
9:09
Speaker 3: eating a bunch of Christmas cookies and be eating anything
9:11
Speaker 3: in your sight from November to January, so you might
9:15
Speaker 3: as well give yourself a good base and a runway.
9:17
Speaker 2: I love that, Billy.
9:18
Speaker 1: This is this is the danger zone, you know, because
9:20
Speaker 1: you're just loading up, starting with the State Fair foods
9:22
Speaker 1: and trying to squeeze in and trying to choke down
9:25
Speaker 1: all the brats and burgers and stuff that you can,
9:28
Speaker 1: all the cookout foods, all the bad foods are rolling through.
9:31
Speaker 3: As I walked by sas Is at Zuala Kart yesterday. Yes,
9:33
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get chicken tenders and a sass platter like
9:35
Speaker 3: there's no way that I'm going to miss out on
9:38
Speaker 3: potentially the last sas Is sampler platter of the year
9:40
Speaker 3: on and by the way, I make crab rangoons at home.
9:44
Speaker 3: I think I can deep fry I find something like that. Yeah,
9:46
Speaker 3: why not, let's figure that out.
9:48
Speaker 1: The man himself, the Duke of Szama, Steve Sasama, just
9:52
Speaker 1: had a birthday, birthday.
9:55
Speaker 2: Celebrate birthday.
9:57
Speaker 1: He's the man some legends, legend and a longtime friend
10:03
Speaker 1: of the show.
10:04
Speaker 2: Is outstanding all right.
10:05
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven seven nine four three Brewers with an
10:07
Speaker 1: uplifting victory yesterday, setting the stage for a big weekend
10:11
Speaker 1: series against the Braves, who played yesterday in Chicago in
10:14
Speaker 1: a makeup game and then rolled on up. Meanwhile, now
10:18
Speaker 1: that the Mariners are out of town and that the
10:20
Speaker 1: Brewers took two or three for their seventh straight home
10:23
Speaker 1: series win, m.
10:25
Speaker 2: That works out.
10:26
Speaker 1: Uh, you gotta start cheering for the Mariners double barrel
10:29
Speaker 1: because they're hosting the Cubs this weekend.
10:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they also they've decided that they need a boost,
10:34
Speaker 3: they need something exciting, they need somebody to freshen things up,
10:38
Speaker 3: and they're calling up top pitching prospect in baseball, Cad Anderson,
10:41
Speaker 3: the left. He's gonna start against the Cubs coming up.
10:44
Speaker 3: Hope he's like that is, let's hope he shoves. I
10:46
Speaker 3: love it and also shout out Seattle. Great decision to
10:50
Speaker 3: pick this weekend for his open start instead of you know,
10:54
Speaker 3: this past Saturday or Wednesday would not have been a
10:57
Speaker 3: good idea.
10:57
Speaker 2: Get that Poppers. Brewis put it on a pretty good pitcher.
11:00
Speaker 1: Kirby yesterday had pretty good stuff, and first put it
11:03
Speaker 1: on him with a touchdown in the first inning.
11:05
Speaker 3: He was one of the names that really started surfacing
11:07
Speaker 3: around the deadline. Seattle didn't do much, and the Photo's
11:10
Speaker 3: been one of the guys that always takes big swings.
11:12
Speaker 3: They didn't really do a by or sell this year.
11:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're just kind of floating around, and I mean, well,
11:18
Speaker 1: look at they're reeling. People think that, you know, they're
11:21
Speaker 1: upset about Yellich's drop off, the big dumpa big dumplam,
11:26
Speaker 1: sixty homers, an MVP conversation, losing to Judge, but then
11:30
Speaker 1: now he's just so on a milk carton and this lost.
11:33
Speaker 2: Yeah.
11:33
Speaker 3: And I was listening to Baseball's favorite psychologist, Joe Madden
11:39
Speaker 3: with the Foul Territory Guys yesterday and they were talking
11:42
Speaker 3: about Kyle Tucker and then they mentioned cal Raley and
11:46
Speaker 3: they started rolling through a number of these big time names.
11:48
Speaker 2: Mookie Betts for the longest time, was in like the
11:51
Speaker 2: midst of one of the worst seasons of his career. Well,
11:53
Speaker 2: and he had the illness.
11:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you really start realizing that it is not
11:58
Speaker 3: just the plus thirty club of Yelich, that that's in
12:01
Speaker 3: the swoon of a twenty twenty five season or twenty
12:04
Speaker 3: twenty six season, there's a ton of big name, high
12:07
Speaker 3: profile players for some of these top teams, especially the
12:10
Speaker 3: best teams in the league, that are still having guys
12:13
Speaker 3: have completely off years.
12:15
Speaker 2: And you mentioned Judge.
12:17
Speaker 3: The Yankees have done this for the last four months
12:19
Speaker 3: without Judge them and there's no sign of him coming back, Like,
12:22
Speaker 3: it doesn't sound like there's any real inklanding that he's
12:25
Speaker 3: for sure coming back by the playoff time.
12:27
Speaker 2: There's a lot of guys. I mean, for a while
12:28
Speaker 2: it was Tatiz he's turned around, but mentioned Guerrero Bashett, Like,
12:32
Speaker 2: there are guys that so many players that you expect
12:35
Speaker 2: to be good. It just shows you that results aren't
12:37
Speaker 2: promised and it's harder and hardest to sustain that level
12:41
Speaker 2: of play. It seems like maybe these days, maybe it's
12:43
Speaker 2: just you know, you know, the recency buys, but it
12:46
Speaker 2: seems like it's harder these days for a lot of
12:48
Speaker 2: great players is to stay in that level of play. So,
12:50
Speaker 2: if anything, Yelich has been somewhat better at it over
12:53
Speaker 2: the course of the years. Now he's dropped out this year,
12:55
Speaker 2: But look at a guy like cal Raley, Yeah, you're right,
12:57
Speaker 2: with the Mariners. I mean, it's not often one guy
12:59
Speaker 2: could make a whole difference on your team. But that's
13:01
Speaker 2: one guy that's caused. You know, if they got what
13:03
Speaker 2: they expected on him this year, that's seven wins. I
13:06
Speaker 2: mean his I think his war is still negative, but
13:08
Speaker 2: it was like a seven war. That's seven wins. That
13:10
Speaker 2: totally changes the trajectory of your team. They'd be a
13:12
Speaker 2: playoff team. So it's pretty crazy, but interested and excited
13:16
Speaker 2: and anxious to see this Kate Anderson odobt. Hopefully he
13:19
Speaker 2: just dominates that first game. He had a one O
13:21
Speaker 2: six e RA in Double A, and he's the best
13:25
Speaker 2: pitching prospect in baseball, and he was the top story
13:28
Speaker 2: on the old ESPN dot com MLB page, So you
13:31
Speaker 2: know it's a big deal when he's coming up and
13:33
Speaker 2: he's the top story. So let's love to see him
13:36
Speaker 2: work and get crazy and get nuts and dominate that lineup,
13:39
Speaker 2: which is not a good easy line tom and let's
13:41
Speaker 2: get nuts.
13:41
Speaker 3: We get a little West Coast action to pay attention
13:43
Speaker 3: to while we're in the midst of packers ot tonight,
13:46
Speaker 3: because Cubs and Mariners will start up at about nine
13:48
Speaker 3: to ten out there in the cappuccino capital of the world.
13:52
Speaker 2: That's the key, Billy, You got it, that's the key.
13:54
Speaker 4: Right.
13:54
Speaker 1: Vers enter the weekend again, big series against the Braves,
13:57
Speaker 1: measuring stick series against another solid nationally contender, and they
14:01
Speaker 1: answer with a five game lead in the division.
14:04
Speaker 3: Impressive stuff. A five game lead for the Brewers in
14:07
Speaker 3: the division. Five game lead for the Braves in their
14:09
Speaker 3: division feels like the Brewers one is closer. And you
14:12
Speaker 3: look at the numbers and you understand why. I think
14:14
Speaker 3: the Phillies have like a plus fifteen run differential. The
14:19
Speaker 3: Cubs are a plus one hundred, and their records are
14:22
Speaker 3: not that that's dissimilar, but just the way one team
14:26
Speaker 3: is played, and you know, the lineup for Philadelphia is good,
14:30
Speaker 3: but the Cubs have just been playing at such a
14:31
Speaker 3: ridiculous pace.
14:32
Speaker 2: Try to hold them off.
14:33
Speaker 3: I do like that it can be a measuring stick, Drew,
14:35
Speaker 3: because whether consciously or subconsciously, fans are gonna do it.
14:39
Speaker 3: And I don't know that players do at all. But
14:43
Speaker 3: you know that when you're gonna get miss and Henderson
14:46
Speaker 3: on the mound, there's gonna be thirty eight to forty
14:48
Speaker 3: two thousand plus in that place all weekend long. It's
14:51
Speaker 3: gonna be hard not to think that. Think of it
14:53
Speaker 3: as a huge series with two big time games.
14:56
Speaker 2: No question.
14:57
Speaker 1: By the way, courtesy of that twenty two nothing romp
15:00
Speaker 1: that we referenced earlier, for his lead the Majors in
15:03
Speaker 1: run differential plus one favor whereas the Dodgers are plus
15:08
Speaker 1: one forty five.
15:09
Speaker 2: Eat your heart out at LA. I like being able
15:12
Speaker 2: to beat them in that one.
15:13
Speaker 1: Well, and we're going to talk about that because the
15:16
Speaker 1: news that's coming out about the Dodgers' ownership and the
15:21
Speaker 1: financial dealings they're in and the now it's all related
15:24
Speaker 1: the sale of the Lakers, and this Mark Walter guy
15:28
Speaker 1: is in it. The bills are coming due, the lights
15:32
Speaker 1: are coming on, and the roaches are scurried.
15:36
Speaker 3: And you don't know how much of the twenty seven
15:38
Speaker 3: percent controlling stake that he has and the Dodgers, how
15:42
Speaker 3: quickly that can get liquefied, and then how quickly all
15:45
Speaker 3: that money ends up coming due on these deferred payments.
15:48
Speaker 3: That makes it maybe less of an appreciation exciting asset
15:51
Speaker 3: to go in purchase.
15:52
Speaker 1: I was show hey, I'd be a little nervous because
15:55
Speaker 1: they owe me a lot of money in the twenty forties,
15:57
Speaker 1: and if they if this thing. They look for a
16:00
Speaker 1: way for them to go bankrupt and say, oh, sorry,
16:01
Speaker 1: you're just another creditor that we're not going to be.
16:03
Speaker 2: Able to pay. Yeah, I apologize, we're not going to
16:05
Speaker 2: be These things.
16:06
Speaker 1: Are supposed to be pre paid and pre funded when
16:10
Speaker 1: you're when you do deferred money, But when you're kiting
16:12
Speaker 1: money around the way that the Dodgers apparently have been,
16:16
Speaker 1: we'll get into that. I am not a financial expert.
16:18
Speaker 1: I can barely handle my own finances and not even good.
16:21
Speaker 1: But I've said this for years. People would ask me
16:24
Speaker 1: about you know, ah, these owners say they're not making
16:27
Speaker 1: any money. It's like, well, there's some book cooking going on,
16:30
Speaker 1: there's some Hollywood accounting and no, no pun intended with
16:33
Speaker 1: the Dodgers, But I was like, imagine that you you started,
16:37
Speaker 1: you made your fortune with a dry cleaning company. You
16:40
Speaker 1: have dry cleaning outlets all over the country, and then
16:42
Speaker 1: you buy a franchise and then we got to launder
16:46
Speaker 1: our uniforms. So we we launder our uniforms and our
16:50
Speaker 1: cash through our dry cleaning business, and we charge ourselves
16:53
Speaker 1: exorbitant fees and we have a huge expense and we're
16:55
Speaker 1: not making any money over here, No money over We're
16:57
Speaker 1: making a huge record income over at the rye cleaning side.
17:01
Speaker 1: That's the kind of stuff that they've been doing. And
17:02
Speaker 1: there's a shell game that's been going on forever. And
17:05
Speaker 1: that's basically the story of our whole financial system. We're
17:08
Speaker 1: pinned by just insider dealing and grift and a lot
17:12
Speaker 1: of your money being spent around everybody getting increase. And yeah,
17:16
Speaker 1: so the Dodgers haveing a insurance policies, all these loans
17:20
Speaker 1: bankrolled by insurance companies owned by the ownership groups. So
17:24
Speaker 1: it's what they call a closed loop of you know
17:27
Speaker 1: there where everybody else. And then they're they were using
17:30
Speaker 1: it to hide hide revenue from their TV operation because
17:33
Speaker 1: their whole TV operation they own.
17:36
Speaker 2: Has become a real sweetheart deal for forgot. So it's
17:40
Speaker 2: the perfect storm.
17:41
Speaker 1: So everybody who said, including Dave Roberts, well anybody can
17:45
Speaker 1: operate that way, we do. No, not anybody can, and
17:48
Speaker 1: it might not be ethical or legal. No, that's okay.
17:51
Speaker 2: I'm waiting for all those uh those arrogant, punk, winy,
17:54
Speaker 2: snobbass Dodger fans to say, oh, anyone could have done this, Well, sure,
17:57
Speaker 2: anyone could pay it if you're running a pods anyone
18:00
Speaker 2: want to do it?
18:01
Speaker 1: Arman passive less aggressively firing shots at his cousins from
18:05
Speaker 1: the battle.
18:05
Speaker 2: I was right. I clip the tape and send it
18:09
Speaker 2: out on the group chat. Anyone could have anyone could
18:11
Speaker 2: have made this signing. Anyone these owners could do it. It
18:13
Speaker 2: is too cheap. No, they're just out a federal investigation.
18:16
Speaker 1: Their effective payroll with the schools from eighty one million
18:20
Speaker 1: dollars or something like that.
18:21
Speaker 3: And you know whatever the deal is for for Otani,
18:24
Speaker 3: because I do. I thought about it instantly as I
18:27
Speaker 3: listened to Uh, I'm gonna forget her her name on
18:29
Speaker 3: the breakdown of it from from the Athletic Uh. When
18:32
Speaker 3: you're putting one of your creditors as Dodger tickets, probably
18:36
Speaker 3: not hiding it very well.
18:38
Speaker 2: Probably not hiding it very well.
18:40
Speaker 3: But if you're Otani and whatever the present day value
18:44
Speaker 3: my seven hundred million dollars actually was like middle fours whatever,
18:47
Speaker 3: I guess it's only fourigner and sixty three million present
18:49
Speaker 3: day value. Could he opt out if they sell it
18:52
Speaker 3: and make more good question? I mean, like, at this
18:56
Speaker 3: exact moment, have you missed out on the full window
18:58
Speaker 3: of show, Heyotani, or if he opted out, could he
19:01
Speaker 3: sign another five year deal that would be worth I
19:05
Speaker 3: don't know, four.
19:06
Speaker 2: Hundred million or what would it be worth right now?
19:08
Speaker 2: For one year? And could he do that? Like the
19:10
Speaker 2: ol O Lebron thing, Like, think about it. If there
19:12
Speaker 2: was an open market for one year on show, Hey,
19:15
Speaker 2: what would it be worth? People would pay? There'd be
19:17
Speaker 2: some crazy numbers. If teams knew they could get him
19:20
Speaker 2: for just one year and then he could do that year.
19:21
Speaker 2: It means a risk. You're getting Kyle Tucker for sixty
19:24
Speaker 2: million a year. Hey, I'll find a way to find
19:27
Speaker 2: a way to dig it up in the seat cushions.
19:29
Speaker 2: If I'm one of one of these owners, if I
19:30
Speaker 2: can get show, eh.
19:31
Speaker 1: Cow all right, that's you know, we can talk about
19:34
Speaker 1: this at length with kick it around. It's it's it's
19:36
Speaker 1: one of those things, man, that's as the storm cloud
19:39
Speaker 1: of a potential lockout looms on the horizon, you get
19:42
Speaker 1: this story and then it's going to be like, well,
19:43
Speaker 1: come on, they weren't going to wreck baseball though at
19:46
Speaker 1: our stuff in order here eight seven seven seven three
19:50
Speaker 1: packers in Denver tonight. We'll be on the call for
19:52
Speaker 1: Packers ot following the game. We got all the coverage
19:55

20:19
Speaker 2: pack and they love the dispensaries. We aim into that. Hey,
20:23
Speaker 2: we love our green. We'll take a quick break. You're
20:26
Speaker 2: in the huddel, Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Pretty deep. Rodriguez
20:35
Speaker 2: going back, he's at the wall, sits gone. Garrett Mitchell
20:41
Speaker 2: back spendings. One off the batter's eye. That could have
20:44
Speaker 2: been the backbreaker right there, boy, Garrett Mitchell, lefty where
20:48
Speaker 2: it's just lefty box went out of here. Boy. The
20:51
Speaker 2: Brewers needed that in a big way. Now at three run.
20:54
Speaker 1: Lead from yesterday American Family Field, the first of three
21:02
Speaker 1: straight day games at home for the brus.
21:04
Speaker 2: Don't know that they've done that in a while. Yeah,
21:07
Speaker 2: no kidding.
21:08
Speaker 1: Three ten start today, one yesterday, and then another one
21:11
Speaker 1: ten start Saturday, which is rare but necessitated because it's
21:14
Speaker 1: a getaway game Saturday. Both teams are flying out to
21:17
Speaker 1: get to Williamsport to play Sunday night at the Little
21:19
Speaker 1: League World Series site.
21:21
Speaker 3: And I don't know for sure the three o'clock start today,
21:24
Speaker 3: but I like it, like they do the one three
21:26
Speaker 3: o'clocker for the alumni game. I kind of just like
21:29
Speaker 3: having one on a Friday, kickstart the afternoon and roll
21:33
Speaker 3: in to then open people up to I don't know,
21:36
Speaker 3: you know, Arming gets into this all the time when
21:40
Speaker 3: we talk about, you know, games on holidays that apparently
21:42
Speaker 3: want to see your family. Apparently we all want to
21:44
Speaker 3: talk to people and talk to relatives and things like that. Then,
21:46
Speaker 3: you know what, a good Friday night in Milwaukee, in
21:49
Speaker 3: the cross state of Wisconsin, right at the tail end
21:52
Speaker 3: of summer, they free it up for you to go
21:54
Speaker 3: and have a bonfire or something, go and just enjoy
21:56
Speaker 3: some camaraderie in the neighborhood on a Friday night.
21:59
Speaker 2: That's a beautiful thing.
22:00
Speaker 1: When I was a beat hack, the three o'clock starts
22:03
Speaker 1: weren't our favorite because you're still there at like noon
22:06
Speaker 1: and you're there until eight, so it's like it chews
22:09
Speaker 1: up the entire day. And then you get out and
22:12
Speaker 1: like you finish work at eight ish, and then you're well, yeah,
22:15
Speaker 1: and then you get your the rest of your night free.
22:17
Speaker 1: But it's still like that's kind of not as good
22:20
Speaker 1: as the one o'clock whereas you're in and out and
22:22
Speaker 1: you're then it's then you just say, a couple hours
22:26
Speaker 1: makes a big difference. You get out and you're done
22:28
Speaker 1: working at six, like, oh, then I can go to
22:30
Speaker 1: a early dinner. Sure, I can make more plans and
22:33
Speaker 1: attend something, but if you get off at eight, you
22:37
Speaker 1: know your options are more limited.
22:39
Speaker 2: As for entertainment, it's like.
22:40
Speaker 3: The when when the Brewers or a team will have
22:43
Speaker 3: the in between travel day and it will be like, well,
22:47
Speaker 3: you're gonna leave and we're gonna play on Tuesday. We
22:50
Speaker 3: wrap up the game at four o'clock on Sunday, somebody
22:53
Speaker 3: are like, well, go sleep in your own bed and
22:55
Speaker 3: then fly out on Monday morning, and then you know.
22:57
Speaker 2: You're just into the next city there. Well, it's not
22:59
Speaker 2: really a day off, and when you get twenty days
23:03
Speaker 2: off in six months, not really a day off. You
23:06
Speaker 2: hop on a plane and fly for three hours. You
23:07
Speaker 2: still commit to the day. So that's a little awkwardness there.
23:10
Speaker 2: But I guess the best way to do it is
23:13
Speaker 2: to do like Peach Hanger on YouTube and just go
23:15
Speaker 2: to the game. Fellows Early hooked for the Gas last night.
23:19
Speaker 2: I liked that we're calling him the gas. But crew
23:21
Speaker 2: gets another series uff going to the game today, sales
23:23
Speaker 2: versus I just make a day of it.
23:25
Speaker 1: But by the way, uh, that was interesting. Second time
23:28
Speaker 1: this year Murph is sending a message, hooking a guy
23:30
Speaker 1: in the middle of the account two.
23:32
Speaker 2: Count Yeah, send the message. My wife's asked me.
23:35
Speaker 1: That's like a little reliever in the are pulling an outfielder.
23:38
Speaker 1: We talked about Andrew Jones yesterday because the Brewis have
23:40
Speaker 1: all these young guys. When he was like nineteen, he
23:42
Speaker 1: loafed after a fly ball. And I don't know if
23:45
Speaker 1: at Maddix one of the stars was pitching, obviously because
23:47
Speaker 1: it was the Braves in their heyday, and Bobby Cox
23:50
Speaker 1: just hooked him in the middle of an inning.
23:51
Speaker 2: Send a guy out of here. He had to jog in.
23:54
Speaker 2: That's rare.
23:55
Speaker 1: That's that's rare, and it was, and the guy ended
23:57
Speaker 1: up being a Hall of Famer, But that was you know,
24:00
Speaker 1: that took some huevos and it's like, you're coming off
24:02
Speaker 1: right now, we're sending the guy had to jog out
24:05
Speaker 1: with his glove and get.
24:06
Speaker 2: A couple of warm up sauces and let it ride. Well,
24:08
Speaker 2: I would have love to see Bobby just on the
24:10
Speaker 2: top of the dug out there as you waddle on
24:12
Speaker 2: up here, come on.
24:12
Speaker 1: Get it go, get your center fielder in the middle
24:14
Speaker 1: of an inning. Well, that means the ultimate, the ultimate embarrassing.
24:17
Speaker 2: When Billie Martin did to Reggie Jackson, that started what
24:20
Speaker 2: one of the biggest fights. Oh yeah, like the most
24:22
Speaker 2: famous dugout fights ever this side of Manny Parr and
24:25
Speaker 2: Prince Fielder. That's right, there's actually a video of this one,
24:27
Speaker 2: So I guess, yeah, that is the ultimate disrespect for
24:30
Speaker 2: a player to be pulled.
24:30
Speaker 1: But yeah, but to get pulled in a two o
24:32
Speaker 1: count well after a pass ball and the pass ball was
24:35
Speaker 1: clearly a pass ball.
24:36
Speaker 2: Sanchez just missed it. But spot for Chad though.
24:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, And and the Brewers again they overcame themselves, like
24:43
Speaker 1: give a guy a six nothing lead, and that's where
24:44
Speaker 1: you're you're young, guys. You know you think with six
24:47
Speaker 1: nothing lead it's automatic, just pump strikes.
24:49
Speaker 2: Well it's not that easy, no, And especially when you're
24:52
Speaker 2: you've been in as many high leverage situations as he has,
24:55
Speaker 2: you just you can't keep walking the yard.
24:58
Speaker 3: And I do love the fact that he's just like,
24:59
Speaker 3: I'm just going to see this anymore. We're gonna we're
25:02
Speaker 3: not gonna deal with this anymore. Let me see somebody else.
25:05
Speaker 3: And Robert, we're going to switch up to the sixth
25:08
Speaker 3: out of the six man rotation. And you just made
25:10
Speaker 3: yourself a hell of a bid to go find yourself
25:12
Speaker 3: in the bullpen with one of those.
25:13
Speaker 2: Go pitch in the pen. All right.
25:15
Speaker 1: So we got a bunch of Brewers' assets today, audio assets.
25:19
Speaker 1: Should we spin through Hunter's recap first?
25:21
Speaker 2: Yeah? I like that. Let's do that.
25:23
Speaker 1: Let's take it away our Brews recasts, brought to us
25:25
Speaker 1: by Import Minded. Let's turn it over to the great
25:28
Speaker 1: Hunter Bombguard.
25:30
Speaker 5: Thanks guys. The Brewers take another series at home. They
25:32
Speaker 5: have not lost a series in Milwaukee since late June.
25:35
Speaker 5: They beat the Mariners yesterday seven to four, six runs
25:38
Speaker 5: in the first inning. Garrett Mitchell right in the middle
25:40
Speaker 5: of it, didn't know if he was going to play.
25:42
Speaker 5: I mean, he in his head determined that he was
25:44
Speaker 5: going to play, but the official announcement came out about
25:46
Speaker 5: an hour and a half before the game when the
25:48
Speaker 5: lineup came out that he was playing in center field
25:50
Speaker 5: and batting seventh. Well, he was three for four with
25:51
Speaker 5: two doubles in a home run. He talked about how
25:53
Speaker 5: it felt in the first inning when the team scored
25:55
Speaker 5: six runs.
25:56
Speaker 6: I feel like when we do that, it's like kind
25:59
Speaker 6: of like put you you are saying a little bit ago,
26:02
Speaker 6: like just chill right, like you're not trying to do
26:05
Speaker 6: too much, and I feel like as a group, you
26:08
Speaker 6: just kind.
26:08
Speaker 2: Of dead off of that.
26:09
Speaker 4: So I think when you see the first couple guys
26:12
Speaker 4: get on and things start moving around, like you said,
26:14
Speaker 4: you know, the pressures on the pitcher in that way,
26:16
Speaker 4: so you're not going up there trying to do more.
26:18
Speaker 4: You're trying to see pitches, but you're also trying to
26:21
Speaker 4: just get the first one over the plate and.
26:22
Speaker 5: Try to do contact too.
26:23
Speaker 4: But I'll pass off to all the guys in front
26:26
Speaker 4: of me.
26:26
Speaker 2: I'm behind me for having a.
26:27
Speaker 5: Quality at that and on the pitching side. Yesterday Robert
26:30
Speaker 5: Gasser not great how to be taken out in the
26:32
Speaker 5: fourth inning, so the bullpen had to pick him up,
26:34
Speaker 5: just like they had to pick up dustin May the
26:36
Speaker 5: day before and throughout the series against Seattle, the bullpen
26:40
Speaker 5: was dynamite, did not allow a run. Aaron Ashby talk
26:44
Speaker 5: to us about how it feels in that bullpen right now, Just.
26:46
Speaker 7: A testament to the guys down there. I think that
26:50
Speaker 7: everyone's ready to throw every day. We look forward to
26:52
Speaker 7: picking each other up, picking the starter up. It's just
26:55
Speaker 7: kind of like Greenie gets us locked in when that
26:56
Speaker 7: phone rings early, and it's like we just got a
26:58
Speaker 7: hold of line, like Wan ending out for another Chad today,
27:02
Speaker 7: d l yesterday, Billy, all of them just a phenomenal job.
27:06
Speaker 2: I think that helped helped us win the game today
27:08
Speaker 2: for sure.
27:09
Speaker 5: So the Brewers roll into today's marquee matchup in American
27:13
Speaker 5: Family Field, Jacob Minzerowski on the mount against Chris Sale
27:16
Speaker 5: three to ten first pitch. Then the Brewers host the
27:18
Speaker 5: Braves tomorrow, and then on Sunday they both Braves Brewers
27:22
Speaker 5: head to Williamsport to face each other in the Little
27:24
Speaker 5: League Classic. You've got Logan Henderson on the mounta tomorrow
27:27
Speaker 5: and then change Rowan on the Mound and Williamsport, Pennsylvania
27:30
Speaker 5: coming up on Sunday night.
27:31
Speaker 2: This report brought to you.
27:32
Speaker 5: By import Minded, your trusted choice for exceptional vehicle care,
27:35
Speaker 5: on Sound twenty seventh, just north of eight ninety four.
27:37
Speaker 5: Have a great weekend and back to you guys.
27:39
Speaker 2: Thank you, Hunter B. I like to throw in, have
27:42
Speaker 2: a great weekend. It's nice all this to be able
27:44
Speaker 2: to catch a little I like that. Also, Garrett Mitchell
27:47
Speaker 2: really wanted to say it. You could tell he really
27:50
Speaker 2: wanted to, really wanted to say the F word, but
27:52
Speaker 2: he decided that he wasn't going to. He's got to
27:54
Speaker 2: set that example for the new for the new youngster,
27:56
Speaker 2: the new youngsters.
27:57
Speaker 3: Mark, that's really great. You can just start saying fudge, Garrett,
28:00
Speaker 3: It's okay. That's the easiest way around it.
28:03
Speaker 1: And the homer was great and getting a coupled, but
28:05
Speaker 1: that hustle double that he.
28:06
Speaker 2: Had big mm hmm. Man, he's got some wheels.
28:09
Speaker 3: And we had somebody on the talking text line right
28:13
Speaker 3: out of the shoot. Earlier on today, Tommy and stals
28:15
Speaker 3: Am I the only one getting lefty braun vibes from Mitchell.
28:19
Speaker 2: Might be the only one on that side. I'm not
28:20
Speaker 2: going to go that far with it, but the the
28:23
Speaker 2: athleticism and the ability to showcase it right there, Drew
28:28
Speaker 2: like he does have right now speed and it's almost
28:30
Speaker 2: sometimes slipt on.
28:31
Speaker 1: I had him. I've always had my comp for him
28:35
Speaker 1: with Steve Finley. I like that played for the Diamondback Giant. No,
28:40
Speaker 1: he was like a wiry he was kind of built
28:42
Speaker 1: like Mitchell, which really fast, great defensive player, had pop.
28:47
Speaker 1: He might have been a little bit more of a
28:48
Speaker 1: consistent hitter in terms of but then everybody was a
28:51
Speaker 1: better hitter back then because they didn't have as many
28:53
Speaker 1: guys throwing disgusting stuff.
28:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, and in contact was so much more lauded and celebrated.
28:59
Speaker 3: I think, what if you look at a lot of
29:01
Speaker 3: the underlying numbers for Mitchell and his plate discipline got
29:06
Speaker 3: a lot better throughout the year, and now Drew, it
29:08
Speaker 3: shouldn't be the craziest thing because he's actually seeing pitching
29:12
Speaker 3: every day right Like, not having to get interrupted for
29:14
Speaker 3: two or three months from rehabbing from a major injury
29:17
Speaker 3: can be a way of it. But in the first,
29:20
Speaker 3: you know, two months of the year, some of his
29:22
Speaker 3: strikeouts were painstaking, three pitches and just like looked bad.
29:26
Speaker 3: His chase rate is so far down over the last
29:29
Speaker 3: two and a half months that it's impressive how he
29:32
Speaker 3: is working himself at the plate knowing.
29:35
Speaker 2: That he can hit mistakes. Now, I just got to
29:37
Speaker 2: be able to hunt them and not allow somebody to
29:39
Speaker 2: feed me a bunch of jump. That pitch selection is
29:41
Speaker 2: such a big factor for him, obviously it was for
29:43
Speaker 2: guys like Jackson as well. Gotta be able to stay
29:46
Speaker 2: out of the way of hitting their pitches and make
29:48
Speaker 2: sure they give you their pitches or your pitches and
29:51
Speaker 2: you go get them. So it's been really important for him.
29:53
Speaker 2: Good to see him get it lathered up again a
29:55
Speaker 2: little bit. Gonna need him for the stretch run. Gonna
29:57
Speaker 2: need that Garrett Mitchell. We got in the beginning of
29:58
Speaker 2: the of the year to uh to get going again.
30:01
Speaker 2: And it seems like he always makes a great defensive
30:02
Speaker 2: play when when these games happened, and last night to
30:05
Speaker 2: finish the game, ran that ball down and center thing
30:08
Speaker 2: of beauty.
30:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, a couple of nice plays. Yeah, the ninth inning
30:11
Speaker 1: so that was that was huge, as they say, eight seven.
30:17
Speaker 2: Three.
30:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, that the Gasser thing was interesting that and Murph
30:21
Speaker 1: went and got him and kind of made the savment.
30:22
Speaker 1: But man, the way the guys like Patrick and Ashby's
30:25
Speaker 1: been so good. Ashby worked into his own trouble in
30:28
Speaker 1: his second inning of work and.
30:30
Speaker 2: Got him got out of it. And then McGill.
30:34
Speaker 1: McGill's to the point where he's gonna surf one up
30:37
Speaker 1: soon and people are gonna lose it. And then they're
30:39
Speaker 1: gonna get Negate the what fifteen straight scoreless.
30:42
Speaker 2: We're gonna forget just how dominant he's been.
30:44
Speaker 1: He hasn't the guys don't even reach base against him
30:47
Speaker 1: in this stretch. But then that becomes your expectation. He's
30:51
Speaker 1: given up three runs in three months. It's just disgusting.
30:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, we earned runs since summer started in June. But yeah, right,
30:58
Speaker 2: the expectations like that increases to your right, do you
31:01
Speaker 2: expect them to never give up run? And when they do,
31:03
Speaker 2: everyone's gonna Yeah, you know who went.
31:06
Speaker 1: Through that was Sensitella to He's had a couple of
31:09
Speaker 1: rough ones and it's like he socks and people want
31:12
Speaker 1: to jump off of Dustin may after a one start.
31:14
Speaker 2: You know, it's like, oh he was terrible.
31:16
Speaker 1: May Day is not gonna be I'm not gonna say
31:18
Speaker 1: may Day now winning pitches.
31:19
Speaker 2: I saw certain people want a d F A M
31:21
Speaker 2: and Senstella. It's like, uh, there's no, there's no chance.
31:24
Speaker 1: I mean like way way wait good for too long,
31:28
Speaker 1: and yeah, you're gonna have those ticups relievers give up runs. Also, yeah,
31:33
Speaker 1: it's like and it gets magnified, but.
31:35
Speaker 2: It gets magnified.
31:36
Speaker 3: It's also a completely different operation than he's had for
31:39
Speaker 3: his first what seven years in the big leagues.
31:41
Speaker 2: Might might be a change, a little bit of change.
31:43
Speaker 3: And Josh Hater had a really cool stance and statement
31:47
Speaker 3: about the Brewers and about getting traded at the deadline,
31:50
Speaker 3: because there's a lot of national outlets that still are
31:54
Speaker 3: frustrated and will go to their dying days of saying
31:57
Speaker 3: that the Brewers are not doing enough, won't try to win,
32:00
Speaker 3: and this way of going about business isn't great.
32:02
Speaker 2: And you know, Hater was maybe one of the biggest
32:06
Speaker 2: case studies of it.
32:07
Speaker 3: When he gets shipped out at the deadline and how
32:09
Speaker 3: much that actually impacted the locker room. He's like, I
32:11
Speaker 3: don't know. It's kind of hard to fault what they're
32:13
Speaker 3: totally doing.
32:15
Speaker 2: I look at it.
32:17
Speaker 3: I guess we could nitpick, but you know, maybe that's
32:20
Speaker 3: how they keep getting great young players and how they
32:22
Speaker 3: continually develop pitching. Looks like they're developing hitting right now too.
32:25
Speaker 3: It's not a bad place to go, really not a
32:28
Speaker 3: bad place to be sure. If we could get one
32:31
Speaker 3: huge player at the deadline, maybe that does help. There's
32:34
Speaker 3: no guarantee that guy doesn't come in and is in
32:36
Speaker 3: the midst of moving his family and has the worst
32:38
Speaker 3: two months of his career. Perspective that you never think
32:41
Speaker 3: of when you when you get somebody in there right now,
32:43
Speaker 3: we'll be throwing logic at us.
32:45
Speaker 2: Like that, what are you trying to do? Yeah, Billy,
32:47
Speaker 2: that wasn't me, It was Josh Hater. Yeah, that's a
32:48
Speaker 2: good point. As Garrett Mitchell said, guys, it's chill, right,
32:51
Speaker 2: it's chill. Six running is chill? I like that?
32:55
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven seven nine four one nighty Soe three

Speaker 1: year ticket to join US audience participation vital Today.
33:01
Speaker 2: We got some texts, we got some good ones spin through.

33:06
Speaker 1: Wayne Laravie joins us today. It's seven twenty five, Alive

33:27
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, Wisconsin, huddled up on a Friday in the
33:32
Speaker 1: good Land rebellion arman bringing it to you, reach out
33:35
Speaker 1: to us eight seven seven seven nine three. Let us
33:38
Speaker 1: know you're out there. Five o'clock clubs. It's a five
33:41
Speaker 1: o'clock club on a Friday. Now here's a question that
33:44
Speaker 1: probably only applies to us. If you're in the five
33:46
Speaker 1: o'clock club and you're a proud card carrying member, you.
33:51
Speaker 2: Get up at five am. Are you up and around
33:53
Speaker 2: on Saturday and Sunday?
33:54
Speaker 1: Or are you like us and trying to feel more
33:56
Speaker 1: normal and stay up later and wake up later.
33:59
Speaker 3: That's good question, Drew, because there's a I would actually
34:02
Speaker 3: say there's probably Now this is gonna be just because
34:05
Speaker 3: of the location we're in. I think Saturday there might
34:08
Speaker 3: be even more five o'clock clubbers, because if you're gonna
34:11
Speaker 3: get out on the water and you're gonna be trying
34:13
Speaker 3: to catch yourself munch and dinner, you're gonna be getting
34:15
Speaker 3: up earth first. You're first, they're gonna be getting up early.
34:19
Speaker 3: Our boy, Chucky Garbedian, used to always tell me that
34:21
Speaker 3: when when I said, yeah, I really like playing early,
34:23
Speaker 3: like seven thirty, Chuck, Chuck is.
34:28
Speaker 2: I got twelve holes in by that time? Chuck is, Damn,
34:30
Speaker 2: I didn't know eat off that truck.
34:32
Speaker 1: Is warming up when it's still almost too dark to
34:34
Speaker 1: see where your t shot goes.
34:36
Speaker 3: Oh me, it's like when the sun rises over your
34:38
Speaker 3: third hole. That's when you know you hit it right.
34:40
Speaker 3: What did you do in the first two? Hit it straight?
34:43
Speaker 2: It's right, that's pretty good. I'm thinking, Okay, I guess so.
34:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you've got to turn the light on on
34:47
Speaker 1: your phone to find your ball in the fairway, something's wrong.
34:49
Speaker 2: Something's wrong. Something's wrong. You now fishermen golfers, and isn't
34:54
Speaker 2: like water skiers. Don't you have to get up early
34:56
Speaker 2: to get the right water. I'd never water ski but
34:59
Speaker 2: I heard.
34:59
Speaker 3: That some it's definitely more more of a sheet of
35:03
Speaker 3: glass get out there earlier, spiritual. Yeah, but if you're
35:08
Speaker 3: if you're out there at six thirty and folks are
35:11
Speaker 3: really thinking they're gonna grab a big walleye and you
35:13
Speaker 3: come out here dropping a ski and trying to slal
35:16
Speaker 3: him around, you are gonna look like the hole.
35:18
Speaker 2: No wake, buddy, look at the side.
35:19
Speaker 6: No.
35:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. Now.
35:22
Speaker 3: My pops was a big water skier back in the day. Really,
35:25
Speaker 3: I never knew that huge water.
35:27
Speaker 2: Not saying I wouldn't have predicted that, but that's pretty No,
35:29
Speaker 2: you wouldn't have, because then you would look at me
35:31
Speaker 2: and be like, well that kid was he doing like
35:33
Speaker 2: the Tommy Bartletts showing all that stuff or no, I
35:35
Speaker 2: believe he tried out once or twice. That is awesome. Yeah,
35:38
Speaker 2: he was either a big one skier and uh, disappointment
35:41
Speaker 2: to the entire family when your boy couldn't get up
35:43
Speaker 2: on skis. But that would be the one where maybe
35:46
Speaker 2: at some point, but I think you're you're trying to
35:49
Speaker 2: get something to eat. If you're getting up this early
35:51
Speaker 2: in the outdoors, right, you're you're trying to catch something
35:53
Speaker 2: to throw on the grill or potentially. I mean, we
35:56
Speaker 2: are going to be getting into pheasants season here pretty soon.
35:59
Speaker 2: I mean those those I know, our friend Paul Wagner
36:01
Speaker 2: is always always trying to figure out exactly the right
36:03
Speaker 2: time for turkey season. So we're gonna be getting into
36:06
Speaker 2: some good hunting time here where this is the time
36:08
Speaker 2: to be waking up or just come back here in
36:11
Speaker 2: the iHeart megaplex.
36:12
Speaker 3: There's even more folks that are gonna be waking up
36:14
Speaker 3: early tomorrow. Drew maybe a little bit bleary eyed, uh,
36:17
Speaker 3: but they got to wake up for film because it's
36:19
Speaker 3: night one of high school football.
36:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, State, it was you got you know, you got
36:24
Speaker 2: to look at that tape.
36:25
Speaker 3: You got to burn through that film before the boys
36:27
Speaker 3: come in here and they're gonna get in your workout
36:29
Speaker 3: at eight am. Some might as well get up a
36:31
Speaker 3: little earlier and go and check this out and chart
36:33
Speaker 3: this film.
36:34
Speaker 1: Before we get back. But fantastic, the best and the
36:36
Speaker 1: most fun part of the year. Yeah, high school ball
36:39
Speaker 1: had a game last night.
36:40
Speaker 3: There was some really good games around last night and
36:43
Speaker 3: also the uh cool to be able to see. Now
36:46
Speaker 3: this is just in our our portion of the state.
36:49
Speaker 3: Heart Park has been such an institution football wise for
36:52
Speaker 3: so long. It was devastated and ripped up through the
36:56
Speaker 3: floods that we had just over a year ago. Uh
36:59
Speaker 3: back at practice was Tosa East at Hard Park, barkats
37:02
Speaker 3: me playing some football games there.
37:03
Speaker 2: Again, that is a beautiful one because way too many
37:05
Speaker 2: teams playing at Hart Park for that one to be
37:07
Speaker 2: out of commission.
37:08
Speaker 3: So that was cool to be able to see that
37:10
Speaker 3: it's back up and running. And we're thinking about everybody
37:13
Speaker 3: up there in the Nasha area as they're displaced with
37:15
Speaker 3: what happened to their stadium, and those kids had such
37:18
Speaker 3: a cool moment with the packers this past weekend and
37:20
Speaker 3: wish them all good luck throughout the season, but also
37:22
Speaker 3: good luck to the parents tonight. You're listening to us
37:26
Speaker 3: and you're watching, good luck to you. Now, Calm down,
37:28
Speaker 3: take a deep breath, maybe walk around a little bit
37:31
Speaker 3: if you have to. Or if you walk around, you
37:33
Speaker 3: might just end up like that dad of the timber
37:35
Speaker 3: Rattler's kid. You might walk right into a first home
37:38
Speaker 3: run that the kid has. You might walk right into
37:40
Speaker 3: the end zone where your kid scores his first varsity touchdown.
37:42
Speaker 3: It could be a perfect time here tonight he walkee
37:45
Speaker 3: at Greendale. That's a good one.
37:47
Speaker 2: That's so maybe I'll walk by that game well in
37:50
Speaker 2: case I can't.
37:50
Speaker 3: I used to be in the Woodland Conference, but now
37:52
Speaker 3: felwakee into the Classic Gates dog walking Kimberly Sussex game
37:57
Speaker 3: ended up being a very good one for the UH
38:00
Speaker 3: for the Sussex Chargers.
38:02
Speaker 2: I like that. I like that we're starting to talk
38:03
Speaker 2: high school football again. Makes you feel like, you know,
38:06
Speaker 2: makes you feel like you're at home, like summer's ending,
38:08
Speaker 2: fall starting in well.
38:09
Speaker 3: And this was the this would be the weak arm
38:11
Speaker 3: in where we could do our who drove further bowl?
38:14
Speaker 2: That was my favorite one, Drew, you gotta get into
38:16
Speaker 2: that with us man. I mean we usually do that.
38:18
Speaker 3: For the state tournament because state championship it really it
38:20
Speaker 3: really slaps when you got to meet in into the
38:22
Speaker 3: middle there.
38:23
Speaker 2: I can't randall the non Connie's the non conference games.
38:25

38:51
Speaker 2: and then there's Jamesville Craig. That's correct. Yes, So I'm

39:31
Speaker 3: gonna say that definitely determins on the human alarm clocks
39:35
Speaker 3: because I'm still not at the point where Drew said

39:40
Speaker 3: just old enough to wake up, go pour their own cereal,
39:43
Speaker 3: and go turn on their own cartoons or Brewers highlights,
39:46
