- 2:05Speaker 5: Tuesday because it was two Bucks were like a big
- 2:07Speaker 5: old That's what I'm talking about.
- 2:09Speaker 1: See, some people think differently, all right, have you read
- 2:12Speaker 1: that this way, Drew?
- 2:15Speaker 4: Some people think differently, arm and you think differently than
- 2:17Speaker 4: a lot of people.
- 2:18Speaker 1: But that's why we love it.
- 2:19Speaker 2: But that's why we love yees started thinking that way

- 2:24Speaker 1: Get you to Nicolay lott Co.
- 2:25Speaker 4: I'm talking text and if you're just joining us starting
- 2:27Speaker 4: your day out. Yeah, we spent a lot of time
- 2:29Speaker 4: talking about Yiannis still being a Buck for now. Nice
- 2:32Speaker 4: and uh, I think from what Eric Name reported, he's
- 2:35Speaker 4: gonna try to play.
- 2:36Speaker 1: They're not gonna bubble wrap him, send him to grease. Uh,
- 2:39Speaker 1: He's gonna try to play. So we get to enjoy
- 2:41Speaker 1: him in a Bucks uniform at least a little while longer,
- 2:43Speaker 1: at least.
- 2:44Speaker 2: For a couple more home dates, Drew And and you
- 2:46Speaker 2: know what, maybe the Bucks will actually have like half
- 2:48Speaker 2: of the arena full then because the last two home
- 2:51Speaker 2: dates on Tuesday and Wednesday, the weather was not sub zero,
- 2:56Speaker 2: but the crowds seemed a little bit lukewarm.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Midweek back to back. Oh yeah, we're a weekend City
- 3:02Speaker 1: though we really are. That's fair.
- 3:04Speaker 2: But this is your chance to go on tonight. Different deals,
- 3:07Speaker 2: different Yeah, but we'll see.
- 3:09Speaker 5: If you've been complaining upset about the way ticket prices
- 3:12Speaker 5: have gone, this is your chance.
- 3:13Speaker 1: You know, is an NBA game, is right?
- 3:16Speaker 2: We have, Uh, we gotta give away some tickets before
- 3:18Speaker 2: we get out. Indeed, do we have two pair of
- 3:20Speaker 2: tickets to give away? The Tim McGraw show that's coming up.
- 3:23Speaker 4: It's the pawn Shop Guitar Tour August twenty second, Alpine
- 3:26Speaker 4: Valley Music Theater. He's playing with Winchester forty nine and
- 3:28Speaker 4: Timothy Wayne. Uh, this is gonna be a great.
- 3:31Speaker 1: Night of music. Tim McGraw, it's gonna be amazing. Billy
- 3:35Speaker 1: only knows really is the guy from the blind Side?
- 3:37Speaker 2: Yeah? That in and then I do realize the uh
- 3:40Speaker 2: that I start learning more and more songs. When my
- 3:43Speaker 2: wife was playing it, she's like, wait, you guys are
- 3:45Speaker 2: giving away tickets to the show.
- 3:46Speaker 3: What?
- 3:47Speaker 1: Oh I know this tune. We're giving these way and
- 3:50Speaker 1: we're gonna be joined by Matt Lapay in just a
- 3:51Speaker 1: little while. Uh.
- 3:53Speaker 2: In terms of the game and Billy, you talked about it,
- 3:55Speaker 2: We talked about the halftime show.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Some people are already predisposed to hate it.
- 3:58Speaker 4: It'll be what people are talking about on the national
- 4:00Speaker 4: pastime isn't betting on football. It's bitching and moaning about
- 4:04Speaker 4: everything in general. People are gonna bitch prepare for it,
- 4:08Speaker 4: or like, Billy, you just put your kid to bed
- 4:10Speaker 4: or go get some.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Snacks, yeah right, or a z Arman said, you know
- 4:14Speaker 2: what affects you, Yeah, reslice the summer sauces, right, and
- 4:18Speaker 2: try to figure out who's gonna take the halftime better
- 4:21Speaker 2: and who's going to come out of the halftime better, right,
- 4:24Speaker 2: Like I mean, that's one of the biggest parts of
- 4:26Speaker 2: a Super Bowl and who ends up winning it. Much
- 4:28Speaker 2: like Tom Brady, I don't have a dog in this fight,
- 4:31Speaker 2: although I find myself leaning toward Seattle, not because I
- 4:34Speaker 2: have anything against Rabel or Drake may or even the Patriots,
- 4:37Speaker 2: because it's different Patriots than the old Patriots with Belichick
- 4:40Speaker 2: and Brady.
- 4:42Speaker 1: But I think I'm predisposed.
- 4:45Speaker 4: To stand opposed to wherever Mattress Mac is, and Mattress.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Mac is putting his money on New England. I kind
- 4:52Speaker 2: of want Mattress Mac to lose his two million dollars bet. Yeah,
- 4:55Speaker 2: now he put it.
- 4:56Speaker 5: He put it down there, and he questions will he
- 4:58Speaker 5: have wheelbarrows to the price the jet this time?
- 5:00Speaker 2: You know that's true. Now listen, the funny thing is
- 5:05Speaker 2: drew like into the gambling space. When this continues to
- 5:07Speaker 2: get bigger, Mattress Mac is like, is one of the
- 5:11Speaker 2: old guys, one of the ogs of the post.
- 5:13Speaker 1: I'm gonna post the big bet that.
- 5:15Speaker 2: He walked, So you know, the the guy like Sean
- 5:17Speaker 2: whatever his name is out in Vegas on Perry.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Sean Perry can.
- 5:21Speaker 2: Can run and act like he's cool and drop off
- 5:23Speaker 2: the bricks of cash just to have them reload it
- 5:26Speaker 2: into his bank account right after he takes a video
- 5:28Speaker 2: of it. So he is Mattress Mac has spoke the
- 5:32Speaker 2: flames of a lot of folks that have changed that industry,
- 5:35Speaker 2: no doubt about it.
- 5:35Speaker 4: He's lost more cash over the years on big events
- 5:38Speaker 4: Mattress Mac or Floyd Mayweather.
- 5:41Speaker 2: Probably Floyd because he's also wow, Well Mattress won the
- 5:45Speaker 2: money back in his event appearance fee.
- 5:47Speaker 5: Yeah, but Mattress Mag does it with his business with
- 5:49Speaker 5: insurance and all that stuff, doesn't he have like something
- 5:52Speaker 5: going with that where he's gonna give away.
- 5:53Speaker 1: That's the thing. He's got a business. Well he's done that.
- 5:56Speaker 2: No, he the the business side of it is always
- 5:58Speaker 2: more with the Astra. So he won I want to
- 6:01Speaker 2: say ten million dollars when the Astros won the World
- 6:05Speaker 2: Series in twenty nineteen, but or twenty seventeen, that would
- 6:08Speaker 2: have been right.
- 6:08Speaker 1: They lost in twenty nineteen, that's right, or they losing
- 6:12Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, one of those two.
- 6:13Speaker 2: So whenever that ended up transpiring, he won all of
- 6:18Speaker 2: that money. But Arman so the insurance thing was like
- 6:21Speaker 2: if you bought a certain mattress for eight months, or
- 6:25Speaker 2: you bought a piece of furniture at his sore, you
- 6:28Speaker 2: then got that money back. Yeah, so you got your
- 6:30Speaker 2: stuff for free. And that's how he ended up winning.
- 6:33Speaker 2: He's lost a lot more than he had before.
- 6:35Speaker 1: But Drew.
- 6:36Speaker 2: I think the other one is if you like cheering
- 6:38Speaker 2: against mattress Mac, there's a couple other good ones for
- 6:41Speaker 2: you to start. Eight. Betting against Drake is one of
- 6:44Speaker 2: the absolute greatest jinxes in sports wagering because he'll drop
- 6:49Speaker 2: a million dollar bet on somebody and I want to
- 6:52Speaker 2: say that team's chance.
- 6:54Speaker 1: Of winning the game goes to about twelve to fourteen percent.
- 6:57Speaker 2: And this cat named book at Trent Online another one. Yeah,
- 7:02Speaker 2: Trent is he's a great content creator.
- 7:05Speaker 1: They're all influencers.
- 7:06Speaker 2: He fires up a lot of good content. Trent loses
- 7:10Speaker 2: a lot. Trent loses a lot now he and he
- 7:13Speaker 2: is very very outward on saying there's no way.
- 7:16Speaker 1: This team loses, bar none. That team's almost guaranteed to fall.
- 7:20Speaker 2: So now that I know Mac is on the Pats,
- 7:23Speaker 2: I probably should have done this before I gave The
- 7:25Speaker 2: Winning Edge, which you're gonna hear coming up in about
- 7:26Speaker 2: thirty minutes.
- 7:27Speaker 5: I'm excited for that. Though I got my notes ready,
- 7:29Speaker 5: my notebook ready. Wish I would have known where some
- 7:31Speaker 5: of these big wagers were coming in, Drew, because there's
- 7:33Speaker 5: like there's the Times on Sunday Night football where I
- 7:36Speaker 5: like to fade the public. Yeah, now it's almost more
- 7:41Speaker 5: fade whatever influencer wager comes in and share with everybody
- 7:45Speaker 5: else on the couch. And the problem is you don't
- 7:47Speaker 5: know if those guys are actually making those bats, so
- 7:49Speaker 5: they're just doing this for content and things like that.
- 7:51Speaker 5: That's why I like listening to The Winning Edge by
- 7:53Speaker 5: Bill Schmid was presented by pot WoT Sports Book, because
- 7:57Speaker 5: I know Billy puts his money where his mouth is.
- 7:58Speaker 1: I've seen much of my own life. I've seen him.
- 8:01Speaker 1: You've seen him at that Kiosko. Okay, yes, all.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Right, you've seen the You've seen the screen all of
- 8:06Speaker 2: a sudden starts smoking after I've sat there for twenty
- 8:09Speaker 2: five minutes.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Just fine, that's okay, That's what it is.
- 8:12Speaker 4: In terms of between the lines, I do think Seattle
- 8:15Speaker 4: is a good outfit and this is gonna be a
- 8:17Speaker 4: it should be a pretty good game.
- 8:19Speaker 1: Key to me and Billy, you tell me if my
- 8:20Speaker 1: logic is flawed. Can Drake may engineer explosive plays?
- 8:24Speaker 4: Can he rush for sixty to seventy yards and bust
- 8:28Speaker 4: some stuff open? Can he generate explosives against that d
- 8:32Speaker 4: Is that gonna is that in the car?
- 8:34Speaker 2: It's got to be Drew and he's got to be
- 8:35Speaker 2: able to do something with his legs. I also think
- 8:38Speaker 2: you know that they ran Stevenson so much in the
- 8:40Speaker 2: Denver game, and I struggle when you look that pedestrian
- 8:45Speaker 2: in a game to not think there's a little bit
- 8:47Speaker 2: of regression towards the mean where they're gonna be a
- 8:50Speaker 2: better offense coming up into this game. But they're also
- 8:52Speaker 2: not gonna have to deal with a blizzard. They'll have
- 8:54Speaker 2: to deal with a heck of a defense in Seattle,
- 8:56Speaker 2: But I think they can block up Seattle well.
- 8:59Speaker 1: In enough to give May enough time.
- 9:02Speaker 2: And I think Traveon Henderson is a fascinating player in
- 9:06Speaker 2: this game because he gives them a real explosive element
- 9:09Speaker 2: out of the backfield. But listen, they're only going to
- 9:11Speaker 2: win the game if Drake.
- 9:12Speaker 5: May has a big game, and I think if they
- 9:14Speaker 5: protect him too. Right, He's been saying fifteen times in
- 9:16Speaker 5: the playoffs so far, that's a big factor here. So
- 9:19Speaker 5: I agree they're going to use those running backs a lot,
- 9:21Speaker 5: probably the pass protext it will be in the mix
- 9:24Speaker 5: in there.
- 9:24Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it.
- 9:25Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 9:25Speaker 4: How big a factor is the Charboneau absence? Will that
- 9:28Speaker 4: be amplified or magnified at all?
- 9:30Speaker 2: I think it's decently big, Drew, because the New England
- 9:33Speaker 2: run defense is legit. I mean it's top top three
- 9:36Speaker 2: in football against pretty much every metric, and that's how
- 9:41Speaker 2: Kubiak system is built. Like, you got to be able
- 9:43Speaker 2: to run the ball to allow Sam Darnald to have
- 9:46Speaker 2: some free looks, and the interesting one is Drew like,
- 9:50Speaker 2: we're always going to go back to what we knew.
- 9:52Speaker 1: It's hard.
- 9:52Speaker 2: You can't remake a first impression, right. A lot of
- 9:54Speaker 2: people's first impression of Sam Darnald is the ESPN Monday
- 9:58Speaker 2: Night video of the I'm Seeing ghosts. Yeah, there were
- 10:01Speaker 2: also like twice during the playoffs, and Justin Herbert, who
- 10:05Speaker 2: got an MVP vote last night that night, Yeah, said
- 10:10Speaker 2: to like Patriot players after the game, we had no
- 10:13Speaker 2: clue what you guys are doing.
- 10:15Speaker 1: We had no clue what you guys are running.
- 10:17Speaker 2: So their ability to disguise and throw Sam Donald off
- 10:20Speaker 2: his game, that's one that could be a fascinating one,
- 10:24Speaker 2: you might be. We've wondered if Sam Donald was going
- 10:27Speaker 2: to turn into a pumpkin. He has in the first
- 10:29Speaker 2: two games of this playoffs. He's played really, really well.
- 10:31Speaker 2: He's one of the big reasons why they're there. But
- 10:33Speaker 2: there's still sixty minutes before that clock could.
- 10:35Speaker 4: Straight Yeah, Drake May came within two votes basically of
- 10:39Speaker 4: being the MVP, right, but very close.
- 10:42Speaker 1: One of the closer MVP votes I remember by a vote.
- 10:44Speaker 4: Yeah, won by a vote. But if Drake May wins,
- 10:47Speaker 4: if the Patriots wins. Not a quarterback sport, I get it.
- 10:50Speaker 4: But if Drake may does you know get that in
- 10:52Speaker 4: his second year the rest of his career, no one
- 10:54Speaker 4: can questioned, can this guy win a super Bowl?
- 10:56Speaker 1: It's like an enormous weight is off the rest of
- 10:59Speaker 1: his career, right, so become a made man? Yeah?
- 11:02Speaker 4: Yeah in some ways, because you know, you don't have
- 11:05Speaker 4: to sweat that.
- 11:06Speaker 1: Now until you losing the playoffs next.
- 11:08Speaker 4: I was gonna say, we can we can refer him
- 11:10Speaker 4: to uh, you know far ofcoma Brett and Rogers and
- 11:15Speaker 4: you know, even a couple of years after a couple
- 11:18Speaker 4: of years older than Drake may win Theer's and then
- 11:20Speaker 4: that's their one and dons.
- 11:21Speaker 1: That's a lot of one and duns in the history.
- 11:23Speaker 5: That's when people start with the arguments, well, if you
- 11:25Speaker 5: took out those years that they won, what they actually
- 11:27Speaker 5: do like one of the worst arguments in sports, if you.
- 11:30Speaker 1: Took out the ones that were I hate those argument,
- 11:33Speaker 1: But what about that's the Eli Manning argument? It is
- 11:35Speaker 1: it is, Yeah, that's a great.
- 11:37Speaker 4: Wing won the two super Bowls, two time Super Bowl
- 11:39Speaker 4: champion and MVP. And outside of the two years that
- 11:42Speaker 4: he won those he never won a playoff game, if
- 11:44Speaker 4: that's what we're looking at, Like that makes his career
- 11:46Speaker 4: a little harder.
- 11:47Speaker 2: To consider it does well, guys, And I mean, we're
- 11:50Speaker 2: celebrating the fifteen year anniversary of the Packers getting home
- 11:52Speaker 2: in forty five. But if you take that one out, sure,
- 11:54Speaker 2: Aaron's got an mv it got four MVPs in the
- 11:57Speaker 2: regular season.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's a Hall of Famer.
- 11:59Speaker 2: However, he becomes the greatest to never do it. Yep,
- 12:03Speaker 2: he becomes the most accomplished player and damn near any
- 12:07Speaker 2: sport to not do it. So like you and you're right, arman,
- 12:11Speaker 2: you can't do it. But it is one to show
- 12:13Speaker 2: like how important the getting it done when you can
- 12:17Speaker 2: and thinking that you're going to be back. Listen, people
- 12:20Speaker 2: love Rabel, people love Josh McDaniels.
- 12:22Speaker 1: He you know, blew up somebody's.
- 12:25Speaker 2: Bathroom on a head coaching interview, so he's probably never
- 12:27Speaker 2: getting another one, and blew up two organizations, so he's
- 12:29Speaker 2: probably not going to get another one for that reason
- 12:31Speaker 2: as well. But like you might have a foundation there
- 12:34Speaker 2: in New England where you can think sweet incubator, amazing quarterback,
- 12:38Speaker 2: great coaching staff, great organization. While they've been to twelve,
- 12:41Speaker 2: they're probably going to go to fifteen. You know, they'll
- 12:44Speaker 2: be at sixteen in the next decade very quickly. Could
- 12:48Speaker 2: become Dan Marino because there's another guy in that division
- 12:51Speaker 2: that has something to say about it.
- 12:52Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's still waiting to go to go.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Like in all of the conversations of legacies, I think
- 12:58Speaker 2: one of the most fascinating is for two guys that
- 13:00Speaker 2: are not a part of this game, Josh Allen and
- 13:03Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson, where Sam Donald can win a Super Bowl
- 13:06Speaker 2: and be the guy in the first in that class
- 13:09Speaker 2: to win one.
- 13:09Speaker 1: While both of those guys have Donald.
- 13:11Speaker 4: If the Seahawks win, Sam Donald's always going to get
- 13:14Speaker 4: the Trent Dofer.
- 13:15Speaker 2: Treatment, probably in conversation he continues to do this.
- 13:20Speaker 1: Guys that the right place, right time.
- 13:22Speaker 4: Yeah, but I'm old enough to remember when he couldn't
- 13:24Speaker 4: win a primetime game.
- 13:25Speaker 1: And now he's gonna win deep because.
- 13:28Speaker 5: But these have been two pretty really good years in
- 13:31Speaker 5: a row. I mean, he took away all the flash
- 13:33Speaker 5: and the pan talk this year. I think you have
- 13:35Speaker 5: to give Donald. I mean it's hard and harder not
- 13:38Speaker 5: to give Donald credit, you know, And and I agree,
- 13:40Speaker 5: Billy was on and early and you're gonna give it
- 13:42Speaker 5: to him. So it's silver thing, the Johnson thing.
- 13:45Speaker 1: I get it.
- 13:45Speaker 5: There were guys, you know, Jeff Hostler, one of Mark Rippon,
- 13:48Speaker 5: won super Bowls.
- 13:49Speaker 1: You can win without a great quarterback.
- 13:51Speaker 5: It doesn't happen often, but it can't happen, and it's
- 13:54Speaker 5: not a prerequis that you have one. But Sam Donald's
- 13:56Speaker 5: been playing like one, so it's hard for me to
- 13:58Speaker 5: put him in that category.
- 13:59Speaker 2: Well, I just had to bite my tongue because one
- 14:02Speaker 2: of the ways to be able to win some tickets
- 14:05Speaker 2: to see Tim McGraw uh in August is a trivia
- 14:08Speaker 2: question that kind of relates to Sam Donald.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Let's we want right now?
- 14:14Speaker 6: All right?
- 14:14Speaker 2: We got a chance to wait seven seven seven nine
- 14:17Speaker 2: three Tim McGrath coming up August twenty second at Alpine
- 14:20Speaker 2: Valley Music Theater the Pawnshop Guitar Tour, which is featuring.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Winchester forty nine, Timothy Wayne. What's question, Billy? So uh?
- 14:28Speaker 1: Sam Donald is on his fifth team.

- 17:46Speaker 1: Todd welcome to the huddle? All right, Todd, thank you.
- 17:50Speaker 2: When starting the Super Bowl, there has been one quarterback
- 17:53Speaker 2: that has played on.
- 17:54Speaker 1: Up early with us, Tom, Welcome to the huddle? Him?
- 17:59Speaker 1: Is this my name for Tom?
- 18:00Speaker 6: No?
- 18:01Speaker 1: Is it?
- 18:03Speaker 2: No?
- 18:04Speaker 1: Okay? I think there's yeah, there's probably a lot of
- 18:06Speaker 1: times in Greenfield, right, but you might have been him?
- 18:08Speaker 2: Could have been him? Could have been him? Tom, I
- 18:09Speaker 2: hope you're the guy that has this answer. When starting
- 18:12Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, there's one quarterback that started and played
- 18:15Speaker 2: more teams than Sam Darnold when starting his first Super Bowl.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Named that quarterback?
- 18:22Speaker 3: Oh man? How about?
- 18:23Speaker 1: Uh?
- 18:26Speaker 3: How about? How about Kurt Warner?
- 18:28Speaker 2: Kurt Warner is a good guess. It is not Kurt Warner.
- 18:32Speaker 2: It is not Kurt Warner. Close with these Saint Louis rams.
- 18:38Speaker 1: Do we want to go one more hints? Do you
- 18:40Speaker 1: want to go one more hints? Oh, let's go Kansas
- 18:42Speaker 1: Kent might have it?
- 18:43Speaker 2: Come on, Kansas Ken is ked Welcome to the huddle?
- 18:48Speaker 1: Do you need the question again?
- 18:49Speaker 2: One quarterback has started with more teams and let's go,
- 18:53Speaker 2: let's hear it.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Who is it?
- 18:56Speaker 3: So I cheated Chris Chandler.
- 18:58Speaker 2: It is Chris Chandler, quarterback for the blown out Atlanta
- 19:04Speaker 2: Falcons in Super Bowl. Mary three played with the Colts, Buccaneers,
- 19:09Speaker 2: Phoenix Cardinals.
- 19:10Speaker 1: That's right. They were Phoenix for a while.
- 19:12Speaker 2: Los Angeles Rams, Houston Oilers, then starring and starting for
- 19:16Speaker 2: the Atlanta Falcons and the thirty Birds doing the dance
- 19:19Speaker 2: and getting drummed by John l Way in company.
- 19:22Speaker 1: GoodWork, Kansas.
- 19:22Speaker 2: I didn't have it, and I'll admit I would get
- 19:25Speaker 2: the wrong because I thought it was Nick Foles.
- 19:27Speaker 1: I texted. I texted you guys, Yeah, I thought it.
- 19:31Speaker 4: Was Nick Foles because you know, but I don't know
- 19:33Speaker 4: the chronology well.
- 19:34Speaker 2: And the the other part of Trent til For is interesting.
- 19:37Speaker 3: He started right.
- 19:38Speaker 1: Ravens were like his second team.
- 19:39Speaker 2: They started for Harry Collins played for six teams as well,
- 19:43Speaker 2: but he's on his third team for.
- 19:47Speaker 1: Seven.
- 19:47Speaker 5: But they were all after all, after all, that's amazing question,
- 19:50Speaker 5: that's amazing work, and good job Ken.
- 19:53Speaker 4: Hang on the line. Armory's gonna get your information. We're
- 19:55Speaker 4: gonna get your ticket to see Tim McGraw. We got
- 19:57Speaker 4: another pair coming up. But first we're gonna.
- 19:59Speaker 2: Chat with our buddy, Matt Lay come on now, Voice
- 20:02Speaker 2: of the Badgers, the u W Hall of Famer. It's
- 20:04Speaker 2: gonna join us next to the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
- 20:09Speaker 1: Have a good time.
- 20:13Speaker 3: The boys just butout.
- 20:14Speaker 6: I'd be the rock in the theme of the day
- 20:16Speaker 6: here with the Bucks hoodie.
- 20:18Speaker 1: Why not let's ride.
- 20:20Speaker 2: It is a good feeling, our team, our town still
- 20:22Speaker 2: in still in the state.
- 20:23Speaker 1: That's all important, man, I said, It's more. It's more
- 20:26Speaker 1: than just we.
- 20:27Speaker 5: Didn't trade him, so we get to we get to
- 20:29Speaker 5: hang around with her for a couple more months. It's
- 20:31Speaker 5: she chose we say she like if it was a girl,
- 20:34Speaker 5: he chose us. He chose us again with the with
- 20:37Speaker 5: the social media posts. That makes Bucks fans feel good
- 20:39Speaker 5: because usually in this state and this city, well these
- 20:43Speaker 5: cities Milwaukee, Madison, in the state of Wisconsin, usually we're
- 20:46Speaker 5: cast aside as like I don't actually care about.
- 20:48Speaker 6: You, but he cares. He does for he does for now.
- 20:52Speaker 6: That's good and hopefully hopefully for the long haul we'll see.
- 20:56Speaker 4: So that's the great debate, Like you'd rather lose with
- 20:59Speaker 4: the honest then win without him.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Be an interesting one to have.
- 21:04Speaker 5: I was saying about Nigel though we couldn't keep on
- 21:05Speaker 5: the roster, Like, come on, dude, it's ridiculous.
- 21:08Speaker 2: He gets the Sam Becker treatment for an absolutely ridiculous,
- 21:11Speaker 2: ridiculous end.
- 21:12Speaker 6: Come on, well that's that's that's on Sham's too, because
- 21:16Speaker 6: he I think he was the first one I saw
- 21:17Speaker 6: with it.
- 21:18Speaker 3: So yeah, old like Nigel, he's played.
- 21:21Speaker 6: I had to look this up because I haven't really
- 21:22Speaker 6: followed Suns basketball a whole line, but he's played about
- 21:25Speaker 6: about half the game's twenty seven ish, not a ton
- 21:29Speaker 6: of time, so I'll be curious to see where he
- 21:31Speaker 6: ends up landing. I mean, I give him a lot
- 21:33Speaker 6: of credit because he could have stayed overseas, made money,
- 21:36Speaker 6: but it was really important for him. It seemed to
- 21:38Speaker 6: get into the NBA. He did made the team. I
- 21:41Speaker 6: know the statistics are really light, but you know, he's
- 21:44Speaker 6: just been he's just been, you know, banging away, banging
- 21:47Speaker 6: away was a star overseas.
- 21:49Speaker 3: So we'll see, we'll see what the next chapter for
- 21:51Speaker 3: him is going to be.
- 21:52Speaker 1: The DVP overseas. I'm on the stage.
- 21:54Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, the euro League and then they won the championship.
- 21:57Speaker 1: It seemed very personal for him.
- 21:58Speaker 3: If you you.
- 21:59Speaker 5: Everyone remembers that two minute long kind of speech he
- 22:01Speaker 5: gave when they won the clip on Twitter about how
- 22:04Speaker 5: he had always been counted out, how he had to
- 22:06Speaker 5: fight for everything, and I think making the NBA and
- 22:09Speaker 5: getting a guaranteed year, a guaranteed deal, which is what
- 22:11Speaker 5: he got, not just like a two way or like
- 22:13Speaker 5: a ten day was very personal for him to accomplish
- 22:16Speaker 5: that goal and then try and build from there. So
- 22:19Speaker 5: I would have imagine that's the way he's approaching this.
- 22:21Speaker 5: It's like I did it. I'm gonna approach it that
- 22:23Speaker 5: way again, keep working and try to overcome that adversity.
- 22:26Speaker 6: If we're talking, yeah, go ahead, no God, That's been
- 22:30Speaker 6: his theme really because he grew up in the Toledo,
- 22:33Speaker 6: Ohio area, was not recruited by Ohio State until very
- 22:37Speaker 6: very late in the process. Wisconsin was in on him
- 22:40Speaker 6: and he chose Wisconsin. So he's always played with that chip.
- 22:43Speaker 6: And we've seen that. I mean, guys, we've been around
- 22:45Speaker 6: sports long enough. That's a that's a theme, you know,
- 22:48Speaker 6: us against the world. Well, Nigel, it is. You're right, Arman.
- 22:52Speaker 6: It's been personal for him forever and ever, and he
- 22:55Speaker 6: ended up being a standout player here he could do
- 22:57Speaker 6: a little bit of everything, but I think being doubted
- 23:01Speaker 6: is something with him, Like many.
- 23:04Speaker 3: It's been fuel to his careers.
- 23:06Speaker 6: So I would think there's there's a little more gas
- 23:08Speaker 6: in him right now and see see what the next stop.
- 23:10Speaker 3: Is going to be.
- 23:10Speaker 4: I was gonna say, if you want to see a
- 23:11Speaker 4: former Badger, you can go to fiser Form tonight.
- 23:13Speaker 1: Micah Potter playing with the Yes, forget about that, and
- 23:19Speaker 1: he's in the league. About that.
- 23:21Speaker 6: Yeah, And when he transferred, that was back in the day.
- 23:23Speaker 6: You had to wait a while, They kept trying to
- 23:25Speaker 6: appeal and it just helped. He had to he had
- 23:28Speaker 6: to wait. Ended up being being a pretty good player here.
- 23:30Speaker 6: He could shoot it, and I would imagine that's a
- 23:32Speaker 6: big part of him, you know, in the league. So yeah,
- 23:36Speaker 6: I can't say I'm I'm that surprised that because of
- 23:40Speaker 6: his skill set offensively, especially that he would you know,
- 23:44Speaker 6: have a shot in the league.
- 23:45Speaker 3: So yeah, that was But yeah, he was. He was
- 23:48Speaker 3: in the.
- 23:48Speaker 6: Portal before the Portal became what it is today. But
- 23:51Speaker 6: he was a pretty good ad and was part of
- 23:53Speaker 6: a big ten championship team here.
- 23:55Speaker 3: Uh.
- 23:55Speaker 6: When the COVID shutdown happened and there was no n
- 23:58Speaker 6: c A tournament, but the actors won that the Big
- 24:02Speaker 6: ten or they want a piece of it dead you're in,
- 24:03Speaker 6: Mica was a big.
- 24:04Speaker 3: Part of it.
- 24:05Speaker 2: I'm excited for when my boys are old enough to be,
- 24:07Speaker 2: you know, like cognizant Badger fans outside of when uh,
- 24:10Speaker 2: you know, Carson sees the w on TV goes Badger's play.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Yes, that's that's it, buddy, let's tell.
- 24:15Speaker 2: But when he when I'm telling him about the wistful
- 24:17Speaker 2: days when you had to sit out for a transfer rule,
- 24:20Speaker 2: or you had five years to play four seasons, right, Like,
- 24:24Speaker 2: all of these things are strange. Matt, However, does it
- 24:28Speaker 2: seem like we're we're closing in on the time where
- 24:31Speaker 2: we're gonna be able to stop guys that played in
- 24:33Speaker 2: the NBA and played the Chier League from playing college basketball.
- 24:36Speaker 2: After Greg Sankie, it seemed like kind of came out
- 24:38Speaker 2: against it. Like it just seems we're in such a
- 24:41Speaker 2: spot where teams are just saying, hey, if they're gonna
- 24:43Speaker 2: do it, we're gonna try and if anybody's not gonna
- 24:45Speaker 2: slow us down, try to get in front of this
- 24:48Speaker 2: train because it's.
- 24:49Speaker 1: A runaway at the moment.
- 24:50Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know how close we are, Billy. I
- 24:53Speaker 6: think people, uh, the programs are going to keep trying
- 24:57Speaker 6: this because.
- 24:58Speaker 3: It's the old line. Don't lose.
- 24:59Speaker 6: Yeah, you can be guilty of almost anything, almost anything,
- 25:03Speaker 6: but don't lose. And if you think somebody can help you,
- 25:06Speaker 6: and you're gonna keep pushing it and went in doubt,
- 25:08Speaker 6: take it to court. The record is pretty good when
- 25:12Speaker 6: you take these issues like this to court. So at
- 25:15Speaker 6: some point somebody had argued that, hey, if you can't
- 25:19Speaker 6: stop it in the regular season, you know, the NCAA
- 25:22Speaker 6: does run March Madness, you could declare that program ineligible
- 25:28Speaker 6: if it's against your rules.
- 25:29Speaker 3: But even you know that would be taken to court too.
- 25:32Speaker 6: So until until or unless there is some kind of
- 25:35Speaker 6: a CBA or whatever viable alternative. I just think you're
- 25:39Speaker 6: gonna you're gonna have programs. You're always gonna have a
- 25:41Speaker 6: handful that are going to keep pushing it. That's just
- 25:43Speaker 6: how this works.
- 25:44Speaker 1: There will be lawyers, yeah, no, no doubt about Matt Lapage
- 25:48Speaker 1: joining us.
- 25:48Speaker 4: How excited are you to watch the action in Bloomington?
- 25:52Speaker 4: I mean this, this could be a good game.
- 25:54Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a real big one. This is a big
- 25:55Speaker 6: month for these guys. They've got just two home games,
- 25:58Speaker 6: if you know Indiana. Tomorrow they go to Illinois, which
- 26:01Speaker 6: is on fire right now. I mean they're playing so well.
- 26:04Speaker 6: That's Tuesday night down in Champagne. So Indiana had been
- 26:08Speaker 6: playing better. They lost to USC in their last game,
- 26:11Speaker 6: but they had been been a little bit of a
- 26:13Speaker 6: streaky team. They had lost one in a row. That
- 26:15Speaker 6: they started winning some games, including against Purdue, big rivalry game.
- 26:19Speaker 6: Obviously they're at a big win for Indiana. So it's
- 26:21Speaker 6: another one of those teams though we talked about it
- 26:23Speaker 6: during the non conference entirely new roster in Indiana, new coach,
- 26:28Speaker 6: zero returning points from a year ago, but a lot
- 26:32Speaker 6: of good veteran players.
- 26:33Speaker 3: So yeah, this is going to be this is again.
- 26:36Speaker 6: Every time these guys go down there, I always think
- 26:38Speaker 6: about how this has turned. When I first started doing
- 26:42Speaker 6: this back in the late eighties, Wisconsin was in the
- 26:44Speaker 6: midst of a thirty one game losing streak in the
- 26:47Speaker 6: series to Indiana between nineteen eighty and early nineteen ninety seven,
- 26:52Speaker 6: and now crazy it's almost a one eighty Wisconsin's won
- 26:56Speaker 6: twenty six of the last thirty one. I mean this,
- 27:00Speaker 6: You know, I started as the heyday of Bob Knight.
- 27:02Speaker 6: You know, they were winning, coming off national championships and
- 27:06Speaker 6: so on and so forth. And now, I mean, how
- 27:10Speaker 6: how Wisconsin basketball has grown to be a consistently good
- 27:14Speaker 6: team and Indiana has been a little bit more up
- 27:16Speaker 6: and down.
- 27:17Speaker 1: Or a lot more now they're a football school.
- 27:19Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough when all of a sudden they're going
- 27:23Speaker 2: to be playing an eleven am game at the Barn
- 27:25Speaker 2: where a Newton start there where energy is always going
- 27:29Speaker 2: to be excited at Assembly Hall. I know it's one
- 27:31Speaker 2: of Butch's favorite places in all of college hoops to
- 27:33Speaker 2: play and to see a game and call one. But
- 27:36Speaker 2: it's a I wonder if it's going to feel different,
- 27:39Speaker 2: Matt now that everybody's still fat and jolly after their
- 27:42Speaker 2: title in Miami.
- 27:43Speaker 1: Less than a month ago.
- 27:44Speaker 3: I doubt it.
- 27:46Speaker 6: It's such a basketball is such an important sport down there.
- 27:50Speaker 6: When they played Purdue, and that's probably a tough comparison
- 27:53Speaker 6: because anytime Army, you would know this, anytime Indiana and
- 27:56Speaker 6: Purdue played, that's happening and it still is. And it
- 27:59Speaker 6: was a great app So I mean, were you adjudged
- 28:02Speaker 6: programs like that in fan bases. Even in years where
- 28:05Speaker 6: they weren't very good, the atmosphere was pretty good, pretty.
- 28:09Speaker 3: Good to outstanding.
- 28:10Speaker 6: Now not all the seats were occupied every time these
- 28:13Speaker 6: guys are down there, but I would suspect tomorrow it'll be.
- 28:17Speaker 6: You know, it is an early game, but it's basketball
- 28:21Speaker 6: down there. Is it is a religion, to use a cliche.
- 28:24Speaker 6: And by the way, Butchy has a public service, will
- 28:26Speaker 6: not be an attendance. He will have to relive his
- 28:30Speaker 6: bank shot from two thousand and eight. He has a
- 28:33Speaker 6: TV assignment. I have Charlie Wills, who actually stirs up
- 28:37Speaker 6: bad memories.
- 28:37Speaker 3: For Indiana fans too. He's an Indiana native, and he.
- 28:41Speaker 6: Had a big game when Wisconsin won in Bloomington. It
- 28:44Speaker 6: was like in two thousand and two, the first time
- 28:47Speaker 6: they had won since nineteen seventy seven. So Charlie was
- 28:49Speaker 6: a part of a street busting win for Wisconsin in
- 28:53Speaker 6: Bloomington as well.
- 28:54Speaker 3: So they've had a few moments down there.
- 28:55Speaker 5: Charlie finally against his moment. It's always Charlie's moment.
- 29:00Speaker 1: Bring up another one that I love.
- 29:01Speaker 4: Well, I'm just wondering, well, Greg Gard have a student,
- 29:04Speaker 4: a manager perhaps, or maybe a couple guarding the fire
- 29:06Speaker 4: alarms at assembly.
- 29:08Speaker 2: All.
- 29:09Speaker 6: Yeah, the last trip there were your badgeries were playing
- 29:11Speaker 6: pretty well. They had a little run going and then
- 29:13Speaker 6: and then we had a fire. They said an inferno,
- 29:19Speaker 6: not really, but it was.
- 29:21Speaker 3: The game was delayed. They're evacuating.
- 29:23Speaker 6: I mean we you know, we first we could even
- 29:26Speaker 6: hear the alarm because we had the headsets on and
- 29:28Speaker 6: and all of that. And then played stopped. And then
- 29:31Speaker 6: you officials are going on the scores table, fans are leaving,
- 29:35Speaker 6: and Butcher and I are looking at each other.
- 29:37Speaker 3: Uh should should we go?
- 29:40Speaker 6: I don't really care about the I've looked down the
- 29:42Speaker 6: down to my left where DoD Fisher, the longtime voice
- 29:45Speaker 6: of IU, said, well he's still here exactly.
- 29:48Speaker 2: He's the gold standard.
- 29:52Speaker 1: I'm looking to him.
- 29:53Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, get in the broadcasting Hall of Famous
- 29:55Speaker 5: by leaving the mic all right during.
- 29:57Speaker 6: Absolutely get the fire marshals say, hey, don what do
- 30:02Speaker 6: you think is that?
- 30:03Speaker 3: We're good?
- 30:03Speaker 1: So that's what you say, we're good?
- 30:06Speaker 3: Yeah, I do that.
- 30:08Speaker 1: What fires that?
- 30:10Speaker 5: Take the un with you so I have a battery.
- 30:13Speaker 5: Take the unit with you and drive and walk around
- 30:15Speaker 5: with it. It wasn't that like a twenty five minute tola.
- 30:17Speaker 5: I remember they had to do warm up.
- 30:18Speaker 1: It was crazy.
- 30:19Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was a while.
- 30:20Speaker 6: It seemed like an hour, but yeah, we were we
- 30:23Speaker 6: were filling time, story time with Butchy and and all
- 30:26Speaker 6: of that. And then as it turned out, the delay
- 30:28Speaker 6: helped Indiana, and Indiana ended up winning that. Yeah years ago, Yeah,
- 30:33Speaker 6: I am reminded of that. So not all moments were
- 30:35Speaker 6: good for Wisconsin.
- 30:37Speaker 2: You know.
- 30:38Speaker 5: And this is another one of those games that the
- 30:40Speaker 5: Badgers have played throughout January where we flipped the calendar
- 30:42Speaker 5: obviously the February.
- 30:43Speaker 1: Now we're getting closer to March, all right, billion knows.
- 30:46Speaker 5: I keep talking about Selection Sunday weeks away, but we're
- 30:48Speaker 5: getting closer still. In that kind of night, another team
- 30:51Speaker 5: that is kind of in the same economy as the Badgers,
- 30:53Speaker 5: and they've had a lot of those recently obviously with
- 30:56Speaker 5: the USC game, Ohio State and teams kind of in
- 30:59Speaker 5: their kind of name that are kind of in that
- 31:01Speaker 5: nine to ten line, the thirty to forty ken Pound
- 31:04Speaker 5: that are trying to keep and fight for their position
- 31:06Speaker 5: in the tournament.
- 31:07Speaker 1: And Indiana is another one here.
- 31:09Speaker 5: That you want to make sure you get to try
- 31:10Speaker 5: and keep that momentum going for your tournament position.
- 31:14Speaker 6: Yeah, that's why, in addition to the obvious of beating
- 31:17Speaker 6: your in state rival, that was a big check mark
- 31:19Speaker 6: for Indiana to beat Purdue last week. They needed one
- 31:23Speaker 6: of those kind of wins, much like Wisconsin going to Michigan.
- 31:26Speaker 3: Last month and winning in ann Arbor.
- 31:29Speaker 6: Yes, you've got teams that Wisconsin as we sit here
- 31:32Speaker 6: right now, it would appear to be in a better
- 31:34Speaker 6: position than Indiana, but it's it's huge and they've got
- 31:38Speaker 6: a stretch of these games coming up that it can
- 31:40Speaker 6: be big time resume builders with Indiana obviously Illinois, Michigan
- 31:44Speaker 6: State comes here to Madison a week from tonight, and
- 31:47Speaker 6: so on and so forth. So you've got a lot
- 31:49Speaker 6: of You've got a lot of big time opponents, either
- 31:52Speaker 6: at the top tier or as Arman as you said,
- 31:55Speaker 6: an Indiana team that's trying to move up a little
- 31:57Speaker 6: higher into that second grouping of of Big ten teams,
- 32:01Speaker 6: and it's one of those bubble teams as we sit.
- 32:04Speaker 3: Here right now. So it's a very very important game.
- 32:06Speaker 2: For both Well, how much does the schedule also a
- 32:09Speaker 2: factor in here, Matt When you realize how much of
- 32:10Speaker 2: these are going to be on the road, right, And
- 32:12Speaker 2: the brother in law told, uh, pull my wife and
- 32:15Speaker 2: mother in law, Well, I got some stuff to do,
- 32:17Speaker 2: so if you guys want to see me, you might
- 32:18Speaker 2: have to come down to Madison. They're like, sweet, we'll
- 32:20Speaker 2: go to a Badger game. Well, there's three home games left.
- 32:23Speaker 2: You better get on it at there pretty quickly. The
- 32:26Speaker 2: schedule really flips here where you got to take every
- 32:29Speaker 2: victory you can and whenever you don't see a number
- 32:32Speaker 2: next to it, there's a lot of teams that have
- 32:33Speaker 2: a top number next to it in the Big ten.
- 32:35Speaker 2: That's adding even more importance to even that West Coast
- 32:38Speaker 2: run they got coming up here in a couple of weeks.
- 32:39Speaker 3: Yeah, without a doubt.
- 32:40Speaker 6: I mean, I think part of what the committee looks
- 32:42Speaker 6: at is who did you beat where did you beat them?
- 32:45Speaker 3: You know the net rankings.
- 32:47Speaker 6: Great Guard has said it many times, including yesterday, it's
- 32:50Speaker 6: a sorting tool. So when you get in, you know it,
- 32:53Speaker 6: maybe it can affect what seed line that you're on.
- 32:57Speaker 6: And the more of those road games that you can
- 32:59Speaker 6: get against the better teams, and obviously the better your
- 33:02Speaker 6: resume looks. And maybe you can move up, move up,
- 33:05Speaker 6: but your seed lines accordingly. So they have historically traveled
- 33:09Speaker 6: pretty well under great guard, certainly under Bo Ryan, as
- 33:12Speaker 6: well as anybody in the Big Ten. This is it'll
- 33:16Speaker 6: be interesting though, because Wisconsin is going to be playing
- 33:18Speaker 6: a couple teams here in the next few days that
- 33:20Speaker 6: shoot threes more often than the Badgers do. Wisconsin more
- 33:24Speaker 6: than half of their shots are from the three point line,
- 33:27Speaker 6: Indiana even more than that, Illinois more than anybody in
- 33:31Speaker 6: the Big Ten. So who gets hot. You know, who's
- 33:34Speaker 6: gonna go on a heater from the three point line.
- 33:37Speaker 6: Indiana is a little undersized, so that's maybe part of
- 33:41Speaker 6: the reason. But they've got guys who can fill it.
- 33:43Speaker 6: This dude, Lamar Wilkerson's coming off at thirty three point game.
- 33:47Speaker 6: They lost to usc but he was he was a
- 33:50Speaker 6: scoring machine. He's one of the transfers from He's from
- 33:53Speaker 6: sam Houston. It's a team full of transfers. So much
- 33:56Speaker 6: like we talked about with the Badgers, it makes some
- 33:58Speaker 6: sense that it takes a little longer maybe to gel,
- 34:02Speaker 6: but this team, just taking a look at him here
- 34:05Speaker 6: in the recent days, they don't lack talent. So when
- 34:08Speaker 6: they're right much much like we say about the Badgers.
- 34:11Speaker 6: When they're right, they can run up and down with anybody.
- 34:13Speaker 4: I need to see the Badgers locked down on defense
- 34:15Speaker 4: when the shots aren't falling, when the threes aren't falling
- 34:18Speaker 4: with it.
- 34:19Speaker 1: Isn't assembly all known for having some tight rims.
- 34:23Speaker 3: They used to be the old line.
- 34:25Speaker 6: They had the National Championship banners and and you know,
- 34:29Speaker 6: behind one of the baselines, and then that's where you're
- 34:31Speaker 6: going to visiting team in the second half, and then
- 34:33Speaker 6: all of a sudden those banners start.
- 34:34Speaker 3: To wave, so they open the doors.
- 34:37Speaker 6: You know, any any kind of any kind of advantage,
- 34:40Speaker 6: competitive edge you can get. I think generally teams lost
- 34:43Speaker 6: there because Knight had really good players and you weren't
- 34:46Speaker 6: going to beat them at your place or their place.
- 34:48Speaker 6: But yeah, any little head. So I'll look for the
- 34:50Speaker 6: banners tomorrow. See if they're swaying.
- 34:52Speaker 1: In the second be good?
- 34:53Speaker 4: All right, speaking of banners, Matt, Super Bowl Sunday, what's
- 34:56Speaker 4: what's on your snack menu?
- 34:57Speaker 1: What are the top three you got to have within
- 34:59Speaker 1: arms reach?
- 35:00Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 35:00Speaker 6: We uh, the wife is going to be out there
- 35:02Speaker 6: tomorrow because you gotta You can't go day off, right,
- 35:05Speaker 6: You gotta go.
- 35:05Speaker 3: You gotta go the day before.
- 35:07Speaker 2: I called you an amateur if you went on Sunday
- 35:09Speaker 2: by last ahead of time, amateur.
- 35:13Speaker 6: Like living for New Year's Eve. Right, yeah, that's your
- 35:15Speaker 6: big night. Uh yeah, we do the uh you gotta
- 35:18Speaker 6: do the wings. We gotta We'll probably have We'll probably
- 35:21Speaker 6: have some chicken wings going. We'll probably fake hustle and
- 35:23Speaker 6: have like a veggie dip or something like that. She'll
- 35:27Speaker 6: she'll enjoy that a lot. But yeah, wings would be
- 35:30Speaker 6: at the top. And I'm trying to think what else, Like,
- 35:34Speaker 6: if you have good wings, you don't really need, you know,
- 35:36Speaker 6: something something else greasy, probably, you know, just to just
- 35:39Speaker 6: go off the diet whatever diet dip category.
- 35:43Speaker 1: That's why they make it easy with Elvida and rotel.
- 35:45Speaker 1: Right when you walk in the store, it's here, it is.
- 35:48Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's they do make an idiot proof. And
- 35:53Speaker 2: my wife is laughing at me because I have all
- 35:54Speaker 2: the dry RUMs that I'm ready to fire up with
- 35:57Speaker 2: the wings. She goes, you know you aren't buffalo wild wings.
- 36:00Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, I'm even better on wingston. Let's go

- 36:12Speaker 5: make it out.
