- 1:59Speaker 2: in the Mornings back in studio where yesterday we were
- 2:04Speaker 2: down at Jimmy's on First had a great morning. Ashley
- 2:07Speaker 2: spent her time out on the streets of Seattle yesterday
- 2:11Speaker 2: as part of our ongoing play by play coverage of
- 2:15Speaker 2: the parade that drew an estimation of over a million
- 2:19Speaker 2: people and a million people who were not only in
- 2:23Speaker 2: the perfect mood for a parade, but on their best behavior.
- 2:27Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you something that is impressive. Nice
- 2:32Speaker 2: work Seattle, Nice work Seahawks Fans, nice work Twelves, Nice
- 2:39Speaker 2: work everybody out there, because man, I mean we're to
- 2:43Speaker 2: the point now where if you put twelve people in
- 2:45Speaker 2: the same room, you're probably gonna have a brawl.
- 2:48Speaker 1: And for a million.
- 2:50Speaker 2: People to show up on the streets and to be
- 2:52Speaker 2: in the right mood for the occasion, I think the
- 2:55Speaker 2: weather helped certainly. But man, that thing seemed to go
- 2:59Speaker 2: off without a hitch. And you bring a million people
- 3:02Speaker 2: together and try to execute anything without a hitch, that
- 3:07Speaker 2: that feels impossible to me in the year twenty twenty six.
- 3:10Speaker 2: But brob oh, I mean that was sensational yesterday.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Well done everybody.
- 3:15Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure it had to do with like Ashley
- 3:19Speaker 5: her like mom vibes. Did you tell the twelves that
- 3:22Speaker 5: don't make me pull this car over or something? Yeah?
- 3:25Speaker 7: And then when they were like, when's it gonna get here?
- 3:27Speaker 7: I was like, not now, damn it right right.
- 3:30Speaker 5: See That's why I figured I figured it was a
- 3:32Speaker 5: mom vibe thing somewhere around there, because they did they
- 3:35Speaker 5: the twelves acted like very responsible, very respectful young children.
- 3:41Speaker 5: I mean, I don't mean that in a bad way.
- 3:42Speaker 5: I mean just they handled themselves appropriately. I think there
- 3:45Speaker 5: was a one time where there was I think a
- 3:47Speaker 5: group of fans wanted to kind of follow the caravan
- 3:52Speaker 5: down the road, and so they kind of just walked
- 3:55Speaker 5: in the streets and the cops like, no, we gotta
- 3:58Speaker 5: you gotta stay in behind the bear. But yeah, it
- 4:00Speaker 5: was still all happy and fun, and everybody was talking
- 4:03Speaker 5: to the cops and and you know, laughing and smiling
- 4:06Speaker 5: and still doing the Seahawk chants, and it seemed like
- 4:09Speaker 5: an unbelievable day. The weather couldn't have cooperated anymore. Yeah,
- 4:12Speaker 5: not very often you're gonna get a beautiful day like
- 4:14Speaker 5: that this time of year. But yeah, it was. It
- 4:17Speaker 5: was a football god smiling down on Seattle, for sure,
- 4:19Speaker 5: and Seattle reciprocated.
- 4:21Speaker 1: Weather was perfect.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Our coverage was outstanding. That included Ashley. That was great,
- 4:26Speaker 2: nice work done by all. I can say that because
- 4:29Speaker 2: I wasn't involved after ten o'clock just outstanding. And then
- 4:34Speaker 2: even the television coverage which I caught a little bit
- 4:36Speaker 2: of as well. I mean, all the the stations were after.
- 4:40Speaker 2: I got to give credit to Joyce Taylor. Boy was
- 4:43Speaker 2: she happy at King five about covering that. And then
- 4:46Speaker 2: my guy Steve so Lee's over there at Como hosting things.
- 4:51Speaker 2: He was terrific yesterday. And then our people were terrific yesterday.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Did you have a fun doing it?
- 4:56Speaker 6: Yeah, it was incredible to see.
- 4:58Speaker 7: So I got up there at like ten, and we
- 5:01Speaker 7: knew the parade wasn't going to be to us until
- 5:02Speaker 7: probably twelve forty five, twelve thirty at the earliest. There
- 5:06Speaker 7: were some little snafoo, some little delays that they ended
- 5:10Speaker 7: up I think by us about one and just to
- 5:14Speaker 7: watch it fill in from where it was when I
- 5:17Speaker 7: got there, I was walking up thinking I actually could
- 5:19Speaker 7: have even driven up closer to hear and parked, and
- 5:22Speaker 7: then we would have had not had to walk all
- 5:24Speaker 7: the way back to the station after and that, and
- 5:26Speaker 7: because it was just there wasn't a lot of people
- 5:28Speaker 7: walking up.
- 5:28Speaker 6: Well, then as you got up closer, all of a
- 5:30Speaker 6: sudden there was some more people.
- 5:31Speaker 7: And then as I found my spot, I had this
- 5:34Speaker 7: it was this like little elevated spot so I could
- 5:37Speaker 7: see over the three rows of people in front of
- 5:39Speaker 7: me to the street.
- 5:40Speaker 6: I was like, Okay, this is the spot we're going to.
- 5:41Speaker 7: Go with, and all of a sudden, I an hour
- 5:45Speaker 7: later it was a sea of people. Three yeah, exactly.
- 5:49Speaker 7: I couldn't see the street. By the time the parade came,
- 5:52Speaker 7: I couldn't see any of the players that were walking
- 5:54Speaker 7: on the street by the time the parade came, so
- 5:57Speaker 7: you could only see the buses and the people on
- 5:59Speaker 7: the and in the cars. There was a bunch of
- 6:01Speaker 7: players that were walking around signing autographs, I mean taking
- 6:06Speaker 7: swigs of people's tequila.
- 6:08Speaker 6: Not right in front of me, but huh.
- 6:10Speaker 7: I saw that that was good and just having the
- 6:14Speaker 7: best time, and it was really cool to see. There
- 6:18Speaker 7: were kids playing football while we were waiting for the parade.
- 6:20Speaker 6: There was a lot of kids there, a lot of kids.
- 6:24Speaker 7: And they extend they extended the parade route too, because
- 6:27Speaker 7: there were so many people.
- 6:28Speaker 6: So I was passed Fourth and either I was at
- 6:30Speaker 6: Fourth and Denny.
- 6:31Speaker 2: And the players had no problem with it, I mean
- 6:34Speaker 2: like making it longer. I mean they looked like they
- 6:36Speaker 2: were having the times of their lives up there.
- 6:38Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 6:38Speaker 7: So they ended up going up to Climate Pledgerina, which
- 6:40Speaker 7: is where they had their staging area to get off
- 6:42Speaker 7: and get on the buses, and the parade route went
- 6:45Speaker 7: all the way to Second where it sent them up
- 6:48Speaker 7: the street to There was people on the roof at
- 6:50Speaker 7: seven to eleven, I mean people in the trees, people
- 6:53Speaker 7: in the street, lights.
- 6:54Speaker 6: It was. It was awesome.
- 6:56Speaker 2: It was incredible. I mean, I've never I've never seen
- 7:00Speaker 2: anything like that. I mean, you can only catch so
- 7:02Speaker 2: much on the street, and like I said, I kind
- 7:04Speaker 2: of ducked out after catching a little bit of it,
- 7:08Speaker 2: and then I watched I was got home in time
- 7:10Speaker 2: to watch some of the coverage. Pretty much ruined my nap,
- 7:14Speaker 2: but got home to watch some of the coverage, and
- 7:16Speaker 2: from the coverage standpoint, you just got to see all
- 7:19Speaker 2: the little nooks and crannies and corners and just how many.
- 7:22Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't just a sea. It was seas.
- 7:25Speaker 1: It was like the Great Lakes.
- 7:26Speaker 6: It was from the building to into the street, into
- 7:29Speaker 6: the street, and.
- 7:30Speaker 2: For everybody to be on the same page and sort
- 7:32Speaker 2: of in the same wonderful mood. And it didn't feel
- 7:35Speaker 2: like there was a I know there probably were, but
- 7:38Speaker 2: it didn't feel like there was a single turd in
- 7:39Speaker 2: the punch bowl throughout the course of the day.
- 7:42Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know.
- 7:44Speaker 2: I couldn't have come away more impressed, because anytime you
- 7:47Speaker 2: gather that many people in one location, especially in the
- 7:50Speaker 2: year twenty twenty six, I worry.
- 7:52Speaker 5: A little bit.
- 7:52Speaker 2: I worry a little bit about the outcome, but I
- 7:55Speaker 2: don't know if it could have gone better. I mean,
- 7:57Speaker 2: to the point that the players on the route started
- 8:01Speaker 2: getting off the trucks.
- 8:03Speaker 7: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. During for us, I couldn't
- 8:05Speaker 7: see half of them. They were walking on the street,
- 8:06Speaker 7: just hanging out with people.
- 8:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean if and they were.
- 8:09Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sure they were advised not to do
- 8:11Speaker 2: they were, and yet they had such a good feeling
- 8:15Speaker 2: about it that Sam Darnold's down there like shaking hands,
- 8:19Speaker 2: kissing babies, signing autographs. JSN was treated like a you know,
- 8:23Speaker 2: a you know, a boy band member over on the sidelines,
- 8:27Speaker 2: and he had this big smile on his face as
- 8:30Speaker 2: young girls were screaming and trying to clutch at his jacket.
- 8:33Speaker 2: I mean, it was I mean, DeMarcus Lawrence walking around
- 8:37Speaker 2: bare chested for a couple miles out there. They could
- 8:42Speaker 2: obviously tell Yeah, I know what our orders were, and
- 8:45Speaker 2: I know it's probably advised that we stay in our trucks,
- 8:49Speaker 2: but these people are not harmful. These people love us,
- 8:53Speaker 2: and I want to be a part of it.
- 8:54Speaker 1: It was just spectacular, great stuff.
- 8:57Speaker 5: I don't know for sure, if you can get it
- 8:58Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, the security people were telling them that
- 9:01Speaker 5: they didn't want him to get off the buses, and
- 9:04Speaker 5: yet they're like, we're going to We're going to anywhere.
- 9:07Speaker 5: We're gonna be out there in high five. Yeah, there
- 9:09Speaker 5: was a lot of love going back and forth. If
- 9:11Speaker 5: there ever is a time where a million people can
- 9:13Speaker 5: get together and not have a bunch of issues, it
- 9:16Speaker 5: would have been a day like yesterday. And yet it
- 9:19Speaker 5: doesn't always happen. I think typically, and when you get
- 9:22Speaker 5: a large crowd of people, you're gonna have one turn
- 9:24Speaker 5: in the punch bowl somewhere. It didn't seem like there
- 9:26Speaker 5: was I didn't hear about anything. Most certainly didn't hear
- 9:29Speaker 5: about anything to any of the players. They went out
- 9:32Speaker 5: there and had a ball with the fans. I did
- 9:34Speaker 5: see that one. I think that guy opened some special
- 9:37Speaker 5: bottle of tequila. You talking about, like the long.
- 9:39Speaker 7: Red one Year of the Horse, Don Julio.
- 9:42Speaker 5: Yeah, nineteen forty two or whatever. Yeah, it's like and
- 9:46Speaker 5: then he ends up like wanting to share one of
- 9:48Speaker 5: the Seahawks players like no, no, it's tequila. And then
- 9:51Speaker 5: Nuosu I think was one, came over and took a
- 9:54Speaker 5: big old poll off it. Yeah, I resemble that that.
- 9:58Speaker 1: I even the alcohol part of it.
- 10:01Speaker 2: I mean that was a big part of our show yesterday,
- 10:03Speaker 2: kind of joking about the alcohol intake that takes place.
- 10:06Speaker 2: But there weren't any images, I mean since that Tampa
- 10:10Speaker 2: Bay thing and I realized that it looked like a
- 10:12Speaker 2: lot of fun. But that sort of unlocked something with
- 10:16Speaker 2: these parades where professional athletes thought it was just perfectly
- 10:21Speaker 2: okay to be seen on television just being drunk and
- 10:25Speaker 2: foolish and okay, no major incidents have occurred because of this,
- 10:30Speaker 2: but I don't know if anybody.
- 10:32Speaker 5: I don't know if we need to see.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Linebackers passed out in the street that can't walk another
- 10:38Speaker 2: step because they over indulged. And they were indulging and
- 10:43Speaker 2: certainly having a good time, there's no question about it.
- 10:45Speaker 2: Red Solo Cup John Schneider set the tone for that
- 10:49Speaker 2: at the stadium, But I mean I didn't see a
- 10:52Speaker 2: lot of that. I didn't see a lot of fans
- 10:55Speaker 2: abusing it. I mean there were scenes, there were scenes
- 10:58Speaker 2: in Kansas City a couple of years ago where it
- 11:01Speaker 2: was like I'm kind of embarrassed for humanity right now,
- 11:04Speaker 2: like this is what are we doing out here and.
- 11:07Speaker 1: There was none of that.
- 11:08Speaker 2: I didn't get that, and maybe that was just the
- 11:10Speaker 2: creative way that all the stations edited their film together,
- 11:15Speaker 2: but it just felt like the perfect balance between celebration, joy,
- 11:21Speaker 2: happiness and respect.
- 11:22Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it just felt like that yesterday.
- 11:24Speaker 2: And I just say good on you, Seattle, because I
- 11:27Speaker 2: think that was a perfect, perfect parade.
- 11:30Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 11:30Speaker 7: My favorite comment after the parade was from Rashid Shaheed Rare.
- 11:33Speaker 7: He said, parade won Rashid zero. So I think he
- 11:36Speaker 7: was like, I maybe drink a little bit too much, but.
- 11:38Speaker 6: I had the time. Yeah exactly, but I.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Didn't get to the point where they had to be
- 11:43Speaker 2: carried off on a stretcher.
- 11:44Speaker 7: No, And they were all having a great time. I mean,
- 11:46Speaker 7: all the families there were. I loved it to start
- 11:49Speaker 7: the parade or like right when you know, all the police,
- 11:53Speaker 7: because that's how the front of the parade route starts.
- 11:56Speaker 7: You've got an SPD officer and a truck starting the
- 12:00Speaker 7: Seahawks chant as he's driving down the route.
- 12:02Speaker 1: It means a lot of that.
- 12:04Speaker 6: Yeah, I've never heard.
- 12:05Speaker 7: That chance so many times in my life, but it
- 12:06Speaker 7: was cool to have him like on his loud speaker
- 12:10Speaker 7: doing it because it's just echoing through the streets and
- 12:13Speaker 7: I don't know, it was just the whole thing.
- 12:15Speaker 6: Mike McDonald.
- 12:16Speaker 7: I snapped a picture of him in his jeep and
- 12:20Speaker 7: he's holding the NFC Championship trophy, you know, and he
- 12:24Speaker 7: was looking at the sea of people and you could
- 12:26Speaker 7: tell he was just really taking it all in. And
- 12:28Speaker 7: he kept tapping his heart yeah, and then like blowing
- 12:32Speaker 7: kisses to the crowd.
- 12:33Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 12:34Speaker 7: And then he'd tap his heart again and he the
- 12:36Speaker 7: look on his face was just like, I can't believe
- 12:38Speaker 7: this is happening right now.
- 12:39Speaker 1: I don't know how you could believe it. I don't
- 12:41Speaker 1: know how you could.
- 12:42Speaker 2: I mean, even if especially first time going through it,
- 12:45Speaker 2: even if you've seen it on television, even if somebody
- 12:48Speaker 2: told you, hey, Mike, a million people might show up
- 12:51Speaker 2: from me, yeah, I mean, until you see it, until
- 12:53Speaker 2: you're a part of it, until you're the marquee attraction,
- 12:57Speaker 2: and you're sitting up there on high on those jeeps
- 13:00Speaker 2: and you're just looking out.
- 13:00Speaker 1: You go down one block.
- 13:02Speaker 2: And it's a sea of people and you're like, wow,
- 13:04Speaker 2: that was great. And then also, oh there's another sea
- 13:07Speaker 2: of people. Oh there's another block of people. I don't
- 13:11Speaker 2: know how you could prepare yourself for that. There was
- 13:14Speaker 2: this look of like I can't believe what I'm seeing
- 13:17Speaker 2: from all the players. And to the point, as we've
- 13:22Speaker 2: as we've illustrated a couple of times where they're like,
- 13:25Speaker 2: I got to get out there and thank these people
- 13:27Speaker 2: and not from up here. I got to get down
- 13:29Speaker 2: there and thank these people for making this happen, because
- 13:32Speaker 2: this is special.
- 13:33Speaker 5: I think everybody, everybody, anybody's played sports and you know
- 13:37Speaker 5: we grew up in their backyard or on the playground,
- 13:40Speaker 5: and you kind of you did those things, you know,
- 13:43Speaker 5: bottom of the ninth, down by three bases, loaded, two outs,
- 13:47Speaker 5: full count, right, you do that.
- 13:49Speaker 1: Everybody did that. I never practiced a parade.
- 13:51Speaker 5: No. Well, that's what I'm saying is you end up
- 13:54Speaker 5: I think you end up going through all of these
- 13:57Speaker 5: dream scenarios, right, but one of the dreams that is
- 14:01Speaker 5: further closer to you, more achievable, is actually getting to
- 14:05Speaker 5: the highest level. Right, So getting to the NFL, that's
- 14:07Speaker 5: a dream come true. And then like you know, getting
- 14:10Speaker 5: a sack or you know, a game when he touchdown
- 14:13Speaker 5: on Monday Night football or making a big play in
- 14:16Speaker 5: the in the playoffs, or playing in a super Bowl,
- 14:19Speaker 5: or winning the Super Bowl, and then obviously things like
- 14:22Speaker 5: the parade that come after something like that. Those are
- 14:24Speaker 5: all like dreams inside of dreams Like those are ones
- 14:27Speaker 5: where you're in the middle of a great dream and
- 14:29Speaker 5: all of a sudden something bad happens and it doesn't
- 14:31Speaker 5: end up turning out that way. This is one where
- 14:34Speaker 5: it's like multiple dreams for multiple individual players. Every one
- 14:38Speaker 5: of those individual players had to be having a moment
- 14:41Speaker 5: of well, this is better than I even thought it
- 14:44Speaker 5: could possibly be. I agree. I mean, like I was
- 14:47Speaker 5: pretty sure I'm living my dream, making really good money
- 14:50Speaker 5: playing the game, and now this season was playing with
- 14:54Speaker 5: a bunch of my homies that all we all get along,
- 14:56Speaker 5: we'll roll in the same direction. We got this young,
- 14:59Speaker 5: awesome coach and a great organization in front office, Like
- 15:03Speaker 5: all of these dreams are coming true. And then to
- 15:05Speaker 5: have like a celebration that is basically just to go
- 15:09Speaker 5: out for a day and roll through the city with
- 15:11Speaker 5: the entire city coming down and cheering. Yon. I mean,
- 15:14Speaker 5: it's just one of those you can't really imagine. Those
- 15:17Speaker 5: those dreams are things that you don't even have dreams
- 15:19Speaker 5: about you just all of a sudden find yourself in it,
- 15:21Speaker 5: and you're like, well, this is this is a crazy
- 15:23Speaker 5: little cherry on top.
- 15:24Speaker 2: As you might expect, I had a pretty vivid imagination
- 15:27Speaker 2: as a There were times that I mean happened almost
- 15:32Speaker 2: every year for part of my youth, where you know,
- 15:35Speaker 2: my brother and I would go out there and we
- 15:37Speaker 2: would play the All Star Game with whiffle ball and
- 15:41Speaker 2: bat and he'd be the American leaguer and I'd be
- 15:43Speaker 2: the National League vice versa, and we would every single
- 15:46Speaker 2: player on the roster and we would, you know, we
- 15:49Speaker 2: would do their batting stance, and we'd do the whole
- 15:51Speaker 2: damn game. We'd play the whole damn game. And then
- 15:53Speaker 2: we're like, well, we still want to have more fun.
- 15:56Speaker 2: So then we recreated a loser's All Star game. We
- 15:59Speaker 2: put the we were an All Star game of what
- 16:02Speaker 2: we thought were the worst players in Major League Baseball,
- 16:05Speaker 2: and so then.
- 16:05Speaker 1: We would have that game.
- 16:07Speaker 2: And then when he wasn't there, I maybe maybe this
- 16:10Speaker 2: is true, maybe it's not. I'll just say that maybe
- 16:12Speaker 2: my mom looked out the window and I was even
- 16:14Speaker 2: playing out to tip the cap ceremony.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Like each player why might maybe I did that.
- 16:19Speaker 2: Maybe I didn't as a kid tipping my cap to
- 16:22Speaker 2: the crowd, like the introductions of all the players that
- 16:25Speaker 2: maybe maybe I did that. Maybe I had a lot
- 16:27Speaker 2: of helmets from a lot of different teams.
- 16:28Speaker 1: And maybe I did that. Maybe I didn't.
- 16:31Speaker 2: But never, at any point did Mom look out the
- 16:33Speaker 2: window and see her sons pretending that they were on
- 16:37Speaker 2: a parade route.
- 16:38Speaker 7: No.
- 16:38Speaker 2: Yeah, being pulled by our sisters.
- 16:41Speaker 5: Surprised. I'm surprised your mind came up short of that,
- 16:45Speaker 5: even although I don't know, I don't know throwing candy.
- 16:49Speaker 2: To our dogs. Yeah, yeah, thanks for coming out. I
- 16:55Speaker 2: a chant signing autographs for the mailman.
- 16:58Speaker 1: Hey, thanks for.
- 16:58Speaker 6: Coming out, being great, he drops off the.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Mail Here you go, nice, Thanks for coming out.
- 17:06Speaker 5: Yeah, I appreciate all your support. That would be great. Yeah,
- 17:10Speaker 5: there's there's just I mean there's Yesterday did feel like
- 17:13Speaker 5: it was the culmination of a lot of hard work.
- 17:16Speaker 5: And yet obviously no work goes into for the players
- 17:19Speaker 5: and the organization people that are just getting to celebrate,
- 17:22Speaker 5: No work goes into yesterday. It was just a all right,
- 17:25Speaker 5: let's celebrate this whole thing. Let's let's kind of get
- 17:28Speaker 5: together and and have one final send off before the
- 17:31Speaker 5: offseason and just kind of get to look at and
- 17:34Speaker 5: you saw a lot of the guys drinking it in
- 17:36Speaker 5: and and you know, I don't mean booze wise, but
- 17:38Speaker 5: drinking in the atmosphere. Just you know, hopefully Abe Lucas
- 17:42Speaker 5: is fine after bunking his head on the stop like that.
- 17:45Speaker 2: I'm so glad that that stopped, like gave yeah, Like
- 17:48Speaker 2: imagine if that thing was just a rigid one yea yeah, stationary,
- 17:52Speaker 2: like we might have lost our right tackles.
- 17:54Speaker 1: Yeah, that was scary.
- 17:57Speaker 5: Yeah, well he's those double decker buses are up so
- 17:59Speaker 5: high and he was standing up tall and you're sitting there.
- 18:04Speaker 5: Yeah you're so big. Yeah, glad he's big. But yeah,
- 18:08Speaker 5: he's just standing there and all of a sudden, think
- 18:10Speaker 5: just drove through and one of the lights and traffic. Yeah,
- 18:16Speaker 5: doinked his head and he's fine. I'm sure.
- 18:18Speaker 1: I'm sure I might have left. Yeah.
- 18:21Speaker 2: Yeah, but he spent the he spent two hours like
- 18:23Speaker 2: promoting Coug's football. He was a walking or actually a
- 18:29Speaker 2: writing advertisement for Coug's football yesterday.
- 18:33Speaker 6: Yeah, Cooper Cup was in a Mariner's jersey.
- 18:35Speaker 5: That was great.
- 18:36Speaker 1: That was great.
- 18:37Speaker 5: How do you like them? Apples? Is a little sa because.
- 18:41Speaker 7: Leonard Williams with his heavyweight belt just he was showing
- 18:45Speaker 7: that thing off the whole time.
- 18:46Speaker 1: Yeah, great stuff.
- 18:47Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what's on tap of the
- 18:48Speaker 2: show today.
- 18:51Speaker 5: What's on what's on?
- 18:55Speaker 1: All right?

- 18:58Speaker 2: and also a week of good boy for us. Final
- 19:02Speaker 2: episodes of certain things, final conversations of the year with
- 19:06Speaker 2: some of our experts and insiders, and we're going to
- 19:09Speaker 2: do a couple more of those today. Mike Sander will
- 19:11Speaker 2: join us at nine thirty today our NFL Insider for
- 19:15Speaker 2: the final official time of the football season, and then
- 19:18Speaker 2: at eight o'clock twelfth Man Roundtable, our final one. So

- 19:25Speaker 2: Greg Bell today from eight to nine. And if you've
- 19:28Speaker 2: been listening to that all season long, that's obviously a
- 19:32Speaker 2: can't miss episode coming your way today at eight o'clock.
- 19:35Speaker 2: The NFL offseason is underway. Of course, every other major
- 19:41Speaker 2: NFL city has already started to think about the off season.
- 19:44Speaker 2: Pieces we've kind of gotten it started here in Seattle
- 19:47Speaker 2: as well, but Yeah, it's here now no time. There's
- 19:52Speaker 2: never an off day in the National Football League all
- 19:55Speaker 2: year along, and so people are already shifting their thoughts
- 19:58Speaker 2: rapidly to the off season and what the Seahawks need.
- 20:02Speaker 1: To do to win it again.
- 20:04Speaker 2: The Pajama Party, by the way, known as the NFL Combine,
- 20:07Speaker 2: is in less than two weeks. NFL free agency is
- 20:10Speaker 2: in less than a month. Mariner spring training is already underway.
- 20:14Speaker 2: I mean, it's been so chaotic here covering football. That's
- 20:19Speaker 2: I mean, usually we already have a little bit of
- 20:22Speaker 2: that information about who looks good and who doesn't look good.
- 20:25Speaker 2: But I'm kind of glad that we don't. I kind
- 20:28Speaker 2: of want us to break that news next week. So
- 20:31Speaker 2: Bucky and I are going to be down there as
- 20:32Speaker 2: early as Sunday, and then we'll do our show from
- 20:37Speaker 2: spring training on Monday. Yeah, it's time for spring training coverage,
- 20:40Speaker 2: so we hand the baton from one sport to the
- 20:43Speaker 2: next starting on Monday. Can't wait, and I really have
- 20:47Speaker 2: not heard much at all of anything coming out of
- 20:50Speaker 2: spring training, so we'll break all the news for you
- 20:53Speaker 2: next week. NBA All Star Weekend is this weekend college
- 20:57Speaker 2: basketball You doub lost that that's a rough loss against
- 21:01Speaker 2: Penn State last night by a final score of sixty
- 21:04Speaker 2: three to sixty And of course the Winter Olympics in
- 21:06Speaker 2: Milan they continue as well. As a matter of fact,
- 21:11Speaker 2: with all this football talk, and we got a lot
- 21:13Speaker 2: more today and a lot more tomorrow. Yet we do
- 21:16Speaker 2: need to start entering the rest of the sports world,
- 21:20Speaker 2: or re entering the rest of the sports world. Earlier
- 21:23Speaker 2: this week, we did a segment called so What's going
- 21:25Speaker 2: on with Other Sports? Well today and as a matter
- 21:29Speaker 2: of fact, we're going to do it next So What's
- 21:31Speaker 2: going on with Other Sports? Part two? So that's your
- 21:35Speaker 2: coming your way next year on Chuck and Buck Sports
- 21:37Speaker 2: Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. It's been forever since
- 21:40Speaker 2: we've played, and for obvious reasons, but feels like, I mean,
- 21:44Speaker 2: it was a feel good day yesterday and it just
- 21:46Speaker 2: feels like a good day today to bring it back
- 21:48Speaker 2: have some fun at nine o'clock today, so make sure
- 21:50Speaker 2: you join us for that along with the final twelfth
- 21:53Speaker 2: Man Roundtable, final discussion with Mike Sando of the year,
- 21:56Speaker 2: all of that coming your way today on Chucking Back
- 21:58Speaker 2: in the morning.
- 21:59Speaker 1: But we've been so low on our.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Football team winning the championship, like doing something nobody else
- 22:05Speaker 2: did in the NFL this year, like being the best.
- 22:07Speaker 1: We've been so caught up in that, right, Yeah, it's.
- 22:10Speaker 6: Still a lot of work to be ho.
- 22:11Speaker 5: I'm consuming.
- 22:12Speaker 1: It's very time consuming to be the best.
- 22:14Speaker 2: It turns out, so the entire sports world, by the way,
- 22:18Speaker 2: has been operating now, yeah, really all the other sports,
- 22:22Speaker 2: they haven't canceled a single event because of the NFL,
- 22:26Speaker 2: And yet we haven't talked a lot about the rest
- 22:29Speaker 2: of the sports world.
- 22:30Speaker 1: So as we start to now move away from the
- 22:33Speaker 1: parade and you know, we can start, you know, just.
- 22:38Speaker 2: Shifting from constant Seahawk talk, I think that we need
- 22:43Speaker 2: to update everybody on what's going on with other sports.
- 22:47Speaker 2: We did this earlier in the week, so consider this
- 22:50Speaker 2: the sequel what's going on with other sports?
- 22:53Speaker 5: Part two.
- 22:56Speaker 2: We will be down at spring training starting on Monday,
- 22:58Speaker 2: Bucky and I and so it's our award winning spring
- 23:01Speaker 2: training coverage and it's already here. So we go from
- 23:04Speaker 2: Super Bowl coverage into spring training coverage. So we're excited
- 23:08Speaker 2: about that. But tell me, Bucky, what is going on
- 23:11Speaker 2: with hamdmate bone injuries? There have already been three too
- 23:15Speaker 2: prominent all stars in Major League Baseball pretty much on
- 23:19Speaker 2: their first official batting practice sessions of the brand new year.
- 23:23Speaker 2: We've lost Corbyn Carroll for six weeks. We've lost Francisco
- 23:26Speaker 2: Lindor for six weeks. We've lost Jackson Holiday from the
- 23:30Speaker 2: Baltimore Orioles for six weeks. This is something that, if
- 23:34Speaker 2: I remember correctly, happened to Ken Griffy Junior during his career,
- 23:38Speaker 2: where he broke that hamdmate bone. Why is it that
- 23:42Speaker 2: we're seeing this rash of hamdmate bone injuries within the
- 23:45Speaker 2: first couple days of spring training.
- 23:47Speaker 5: No, I think those three must have been training near
- 23:51Speaker 5: the San Francisco forty nine Ers Complex probably. I don't know,
- 23:56Speaker 5: if we're rubbing their hands up on the power station
- 24:00Speaker 5: or something. I don't know. I guess it's just bad
- 24:04Speaker 5: luck and coincidence, right, I mean, it's that's as It's
- 24:08Speaker 5: pretty surprising honestly that that bone. Almost everybody doesn't have
- 24:12Speaker 5: that happen at some point in time. Like I never
- 24:14Speaker 5: obviously broke mine, but I do know a few guys
- 24:17Speaker 5: that did. It's just that weird little hook shape thing.
- 24:20Speaker 5: I don't really know what good it does, to be
- 24:23Speaker 5: honest with you. And yet if you hold the bat
- 24:25Speaker 5: on the end and take a swing, it does seem
- 24:29Speaker 5: like this is the time of year your first few
- 24:32Speaker 5: full blast swings, not that they haven't done some in
- 24:35Speaker 5: the off season leading up to it, but your first
- 24:37Speaker 5: full blast because everything is just a little out of whack.
- 24:41Speaker 5: I mean, nobody's showing up to spring training, no matter
- 24:44Speaker 5: how hard you worked in the off season, nobody's showing
- 24:47Speaker 5: up and everything is perfect and just totally dialed in, right.
- 24:50Speaker 5: I mean, there's there's some of that that you're in
- 24:52Speaker 5: good shape and now you kind of you round your
- 24:54Speaker 5: skills into shape over the course of the month of
- 24:57Speaker 5: spring training. So I wouldn't be surprised if it's just
- 25:00Speaker 5: weird reach for a pitch ure, you know, just some
- 25:03Speaker 5: weird kind of swing that ends up kind of cranking
- 25:05Speaker 5: on that weird little hook bone. And it sucks though,
- 25:08Speaker 5: because it does. It's not just that it's six weeks
- 25:11Speaker 5: till you're back. There's a lot of times that you
- 25:13Speaker 5: just aren't even really back to being fully healthy for
- 25:16Speaker 5: a lot longer after that. I mean, to lose a
- 25:18Speaker 5: little bit of your power, you just kind of your
- 25:20Speaker 5: hand even though it's it's not a crazy one, and
- 25:23Speaker 5: like you said, four to six weeks some guys can
- 25:25Speaker 5: be back to playing. But that part of your hand,
- 25:27Speaker 5: it's on your bottom hand, which is the bigger, most
- 25:30Speaker 5: more important hand in your swing. It's definitely not a
- 25:34Speaker 5: good thing. So hopefully we can stay away from it.
- 25:37Speaker 5: In Mariner scring trip, well that's just.
- 25:39Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know why it is with the
- 25:40Speaker 2: hamdmade bone injury. But I was like, man, it seemed
- 25:43Speaker 2: like this happened once before in my life, and I
- 25:46Speaker 2: looked it up and it was nineteen ninety six. There
- 25:48Speaker 2: were a rash of handmade bone injuries. Junior had one,
- 25:52Speaker 2: Jim Tomy had one that year, and a few other
- 25:54Speaker 2: guys had it.
- 25:54Speaker 5: So I don't know.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Is it every thirty years the handmade bone gets weak?
- 25:58Speaker 1: Is that possible?
- 26:00Speaker 5: Well, maybe this is the year of the hamdmaate bone.
- 26:04Speaker 5: You know, it's like the year of the chicken or
- 26:05Speaker 5: the year of the goat. I hate it, by the way.
- 26:07Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, you're right, hopefully it doesn't happen to
- 26:10Speaker 2: the team that we root for, but I hate it
- 26:12Speaker 2: for the sport. I mean, those are three really good
- 26:15Speaker 2: players and now we've we're not gonna and we're not
- 26:18Speaker 2: even to everybody reporting to camp yet, and we've already
- 26:22Speaker 2: lost three All Stars for the start of the season
- 26:25Speaker 2: because of handmate bone injuries during batting practice. And you
- 26:28Speaker 2: know that's not the first swings they've taken since last year. No,
- 26:31Speaker 2: it's just freakish that this is occurring right now. And
- 26:34Speaker 2: I hope, I hope the baseball God has put an
- 26:37Speaker 2: end to it. Strengthen that handmad bone baseball game. Yeah,
- 26:40Speaker 2: that's the that's the problem is. There's just nothing you
- 26:42Speaker 2: can do about it. It's not a oh, you didn't
- 26:44Speaker 2: stretch enough. It's not it didn't work hard enough in
- 26:47Speaker 2: the offseason. It's just a kind of a freaky thing.
- 26:50Speaker 2: You swing the bat a little bit wrong, just a
- 26:52Speaker 2: little bit wrong, and it kind of rolls your wrist
- 26:54Speaker 2: over and pop that thing. This could be a magical year,
- 26:57Speaker 2: by the way here in Seattle. I mean, it already
- 27:00Speaker 2: off to a tremendous start. But there's also a very
- 27:03Speaker 2: good chance we're going to find out we're getting the
- 27:06Speaker 2: Sonics back soon. And the I mean, the rumblings right
- 27:11Speaker 2: now are louder than ever that Adam Silver's about ready
- 27:14Speaker 2: to pop the question to the city of Seattle about
- 27:18Speaker 2: will you marry us again? You know I've missed you,
- 27:21Speaker 2: I love you, will you marry me? And so that's
- 27:24Speaker 2: probably going to happen. I know I've said this in
- 27:27Speaker 2: the past years, but it's probably going to happen here
- 27:29Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six. But as we think about entering
- 27:32Speaker 2: the NBA, if you haven't been following it, they have
- 27:35Speaker 2: had over the last ten years a problem with tanking
- 27:38Speaker 2: like no other sport, I mean ten years.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Go all the way back.
- 27:42Speaker 2: The reason the lottery even exists, the NBA lottery is
- 27:45Speaker 2: because they had a tanking issue way back. People were
- 27:48Speaker 2: trying to lose on purpose to get Patrick Ewing. So
- 27:51Speaker 2: that's the whole reason that they I mean actually go
- 27:53Speaker 2: back to Ralph Samson.
- 27:54Speaker 1: It was Ralph Samson that started that. So that's the
- 27:57Speaker 1: whole reason that they even came up with the NBA lottery.
- 28:01Speaker 2: Well, right now, the problem with tanking in the NBA,
- 28:05Speaker 2: according to experts, is greater than it has ever been.
- 28:08Speaker 1: They've tried to adjust things to make sure that fewer teams,
- 28:14Speaker 1: that the incentive is less for tanking, and all it's
- 28:17Speaker 1: done is created an opportunity for more people to tank,
- 28:21Speaker 1: and so these teams are just saying, we'll take the
- 28:24Speaker 1: pr hit, we don't care. We'll let our fan base
- 28:27Speaker 1: think that we stink right now because we believe that
- 28:29Speaker 1: getting the draft picks is more important, and then we'll
- 28:33Speaker 1: get those fans back. So there is a monster tanking issue,
- 28:37Speaker 1: and it's been heightened this year more so than in
- 28:39Speaker 1: any other year. There was a game apparently about a
- 28:42Speaker 1: week ago where the Utah Jazz were up seventeen points
- 28:46Speaker 1: and they took all their starters out in the third
- 28:49Speaker 1: quarter and didn't put them back.
- 28:50Speaker 2: In and ended up losing the game. Oh wow, there
- 28:53Speaker 2: is a it's bigger than it's ever been. And the
- 28:57Speaker 2: lottery was earth shaking sort of change to how the
- 29:02Speaker 2: NBA was and all professional sports were going to operate.
- 29:07Speaker 2: I have a feeling that before the Sonics play again,
- 29:10Speaker 2: there's going to be a new and it's going to
- 29:13Speaker 2: feel like the craziest thing in the world to us
- 29:15Speaker 2: at first. But they are noodling right now on how
- 29:19Speaker 2: do we snuff this out once and for all. They're
- 29:22Speaker 2: even discussing a plan that at a certain point of
- 29:26Speaker 2: the year, losses count as wins. That they'll have a
- 29:31Speaker 2: completely different statistical category that after the All Star break,
- 29:36Speaker 2: if you lose, we're going to count that as a win.
- 29:39Speaker 2: To incentivize winning not in the normal standings, but in
- 29:44Speaker 2: the lottery standings, in the draft standings, we will start
- 29:49Speaker 2: we will start counting losses at wins at a certain
- 29:52Speaker 2: point of the year so that you have to be
- 29:55Speaker 2: incentivized to win basketball games.
- 29:58Speaker 1: And you just can't lo.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Use your way all the way through the entire basketball
- 30:03Speaker 2: season and do that to your fan base and to
- 30:05Speaker 2: our product.
- 30:06Speaker 5: That's not I mean, it's a crazy idea. You're right.
- 30:09Speaker 5: It would be like earthshaking to to a degree to
- 30:13Speaker 5: end up having to implement some sort of rule like
- 30:16Speaker 5: that in there. But I'm I'm down for it. I mean,
- 30:18Speaker 5: the idea, I didn't I didn't know about that game
- 30:20Speaker 5: you're talking about with the Jazz. We're up seventeen and literally,
- 30:24Speaker 5: I mean, tanking is one of those like, Okay, we
- 30:26Speaker 5: got to one of our stud players and he's dinged
- 30:29Speaker 5: up a little bit, and we're okay with a loss,
- 30:31Speaker 5: so we're just gonna rest him today. That's one thing.
- 30:35Speaker 5: It's kind of like it's a gray area, and I
- 30:37Speaker 5: can't fault somebody for doing it. To pull all your
- 30:39Speaker 5: starters and literally like, okay, we got we can do more.
- 30:43Speaker 5: We can do more to lose this game. That's got
- 30:46Speaker 5: to stop. That's just it's not in the competitive nature.
- 30:49Speaker 5: I understand how basketball, you get a better pick, it
- 30:52Speaker 5: can change your the course of your organization. But you
- 30:55Speaker 5: gotta be able to implement something. If they're not going
- 30:57Speaker 5: to have any integrity on their own, then you got
- 30:59Speaker 5: to make it for him.
- 31:00Speaker 2: You can't have a league without integrity. You can't have
- 31:03Speaker 2: a league with third of the teams trying to lose
- 31:06Speaker 2: on purpose. And that is what is happening right now.
- 31:09Speaker 2: I mean Chauncey Billups, what he was betting on is
- 31:13Speaker 2: he knew the games they were going to tank. Yeah,
- 31:16Speaker 2: and so he was betting on we're gonna lose this game.
- 31:19Speaker 2: I already know the game plan has already been given
- 31:21Speaker 2: to me. Were we are designed to lose this game?
- 31:25Speaker 2: That's crazy, yeah, And so it's a it's a nasty situation.
- 31:30Speaker 2: And Adam Silver, I know, please don't let it distract
- 31:33Speaker 2: you from your expansion announcement, but that is gonna be
- 31:35Speaker 2: priority number one this offseason for the League because they
- 31:38Speaker 2: have got to push this out. Finally, from the Olympics,
- 31:42Speaker 2: I just got to mention this quickly. Maybe we'll have
- 31:44Speaker 2: some time talk about it later. But this Jutta leeredom
- 31:47Speaker 2: am I pronouncing that the right way. From the Olympics.
- 31:49Speaker 2: The speed skater who yeah, oh well, anyway, she's blown up,
- 31:55Speaker 2: blown up, And most.
- 31:56Speaker 1: Of it is because of how attractive she is.
- 31:58Speaker 2: But she is also extremely good at speed skating. She's
- 32:02Speaker 2: like the best in the world. She's breaking all of
- 32:05Speaker 2: these records. And so the entire viewing audience was falling
- 32:09Speaker 2: in love with Judda Leerdom. And then they found out
- 32:13Speaker 2: that she's married to Jake Paul, who is the most despised.
- 32:17Speaker 1: Human being in sports, And then it became.
- 32:21Speaker 2: For an entire twenty four hour social media cycle that
- 32:26Speaker 2: how could Jill have chosen Jake.
- 32:30Speaker 1: Paul of all people.
- 32:32Speaker 2: Well, I'll just tell you there's obviously more than one
- 32:34Speaker 2: side to a human being, because I've seen the videos
- 32:38Speaker 2: of those two interacting, and I'm going to tell you
- 32:40Speaker 2: this right now, that's the most in love couple I've
- 32:43Speaker 2: ever seen in my entire life. They are like head
- 32:46Speaker 2: over heels for one another. They are awesome as a couple,
- 32:50Speaker 2: and so maybe Jake Paul is a heel as part
- 32:54Speaker 2: of his brand to create the money. Maybe not such
- 32:57Speaker 2: a bad guy, and maybe he eats her like gold.
- 33:01Speaker 2: So maybe Jake Paul actually has some admirable qualities, he
- 33:05Speaker 2: just doesn't show them professional.
- 33:07Speaker 5: It's funny you said that, because I've seen videos of
- 33:09Speaker 5: them too, and I'm like, wow, for a guy that
- 33:11Speaker 5: comes off as such a d Yeah, it's just just
- 33:15Speaker 5: a giant one. Not with her and not her the
- 33:19Speaker 5: way she looks at him, it's it's it is real.
- 33:22Speaker 2: Like everybody's like, oh, he's faking this tears. That dude's
- 33:25Speaker 2: not faking his tears. No, that is real love right there.
- 33:28Speaker 2: People study it.
- 33:29Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, take a look at that, and I think
- 33:31Speaker 5: it is one hundred percent. I mean, the guy is
- 33:33Speaker 5: basically famous because of he had. He knows how to
- 33:36Speaker 5: get attention, that's it. And then now he's shown, hey
- 33:40Speaker 5: I can I'm athletic, I can do some things. I
- 33:43Speaker 5: can even box over the Hillboxers. We'll watch this. But yeah,
- 33:47Speaker 5: there's obviously a lot more to the guy because you know,
- 33:50Speaker 5: he's he's uh, he looks like he's very happy. And
- 33:54Speaker 5: she looks very happy, and so kudos to them. I
- 33:56Speaker 5: actually gained some respect because up to that point, I'm like,
- 33:59Speaker 5: this is just a toolbag, you know what I mean.
- 34:02Speaker 5: And I'm like, I see him with her, and I'm like,
- 34:04Speaker 5: you're right. He probably has a lot more than just
- 34:07Speaker 5: the persona that he portrays to be famous, a famous
- 34:10Speaker 5: content creator.
- 34:11Speaker 2: Frankly, he's probably an awesome guy. And yet he's just
- 34:15Speaker 2: created this character to make money that nobody will worked,
- 34:19Speaker 2: and it's worked. Yeah, So I don't know. Now I'm
- 34:22Speaker 2: starting to look at Jake Paul a little differently, and
- 34:24Speaker 2: not just because he's married to a beautiful athlete, but
- 34:29Speaker 2: because how much they seem to really adore one another.
- 34:33Speaker 1: I think it's pretty special.
- 34:34Speaker 5: All right.
- 34:34Speaker 2: We got headlines coming up at seven o'clock. Also, three
- 34:39Speaker 2: words emerged as maybe the biggest in yesterday's parade word cloud,
- 34:44Speaker 2: Red Solo Cup. Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
- 34:49Speaker 5: He's making a huge mistake.
- 34:51Speaker 1: Huge, John Schneider.
- 34:54Speaker 2: I do want to talk about his Red Solo Cup
- 34:58Speaker 2: speech as it will be known throughout the rest of time,
- 35:01Speaker 2: coming up on the program today. But I also want
- 35:04Speaker 2: you to hear from John Schneider on our show when
- 35:08Speaker 2: he spoke right after the Super Bowl rall with emotion

- 35:15Speaker 2: the super Bowl, and we have not played this conversation
- 35:17Speaker 2: on our show. We played a clip of it a
- 35:19Speaker 2: little bit earlier this week, but the entire conversation I
- 35:23Speaker 2: just deem you'd love to hear if you haven't heard
- 35:27Speaker 2: it yet. So here's Jessmine McIntyre here at KJAR. She
- 35:32Speaker 2: was in the clubhouse after the super Bowl victory talking
- 35:36Speaker 2: to the Executive of the Year John Schneider.
- 35:39Speaker 3: Thanks so much, guys, I'm standing here with a man
- 35:41Speaker 3: of the hour, your GM of your super Bowl winning
- 35:44Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks, John Schneider, give me the big level. What
- 35:47Speaker 3: does this feel like right now?
- 35:49Speaker 5: Amazing?
- 35:50Speaker 4: It's a ton of gratitude and you know the power
- 35:53Speaker 4: of prayer and just the ultimate team sport and seeing
- 35:56Speaker 4: people come together, worker tails off, no what's important and
- 36:01Speaker 4: not listen to noise and you know, like people that
- 36:06Speaker 4: say they can't do things and they did it.
- 36:09Speaker 3: Well. Let's talk about Mike McDonald man second year. You
- 36:12Speaker 3: saw something special in him to not change the entire organization,
- 36:17Speaker 3: but kind of shift it from there was such a
- 36:19Speaker 3: good foundation.
- 36:20Speaker 6: What is he done in such a short period of time.
- 36:23Speaker 4: He's just taking to us at different place. He's just
- 36:25Speaker 4: taking us to a different place, you know what the
- 36:26Speaker 4: game's looking like as we move forward here into the future.
- 36:29Speaker 4: He's he's cutting edge, he's a strategist, he's like a
- 36:33Speaker 4: he's a gamer, you know, he's one of those guys
- 36:35Speaker 4: and football nerd and he'd say that in Football Geek
- 36:39Speaker 4: or something like that. And yeah, he's just he's a
- 36:41Speaker 4: blast to be around.
- 36:42Speaker 5: And he thinks I'm older, but I'm guy.
- 36:46Speaker 4: Is pretty cool.
- 36:47Speaker 7: It's pretty cool.
- 36:47Speaker 3: Well, he seems to have loosened up a little bit
- 36:49Speaker 3: that second year, Like you see a little bit of
- 36:51Speaker 3: the personality. Have you seen his fingerprints on the team.
- 36:55Speaker 4: Really just like how we recognize, you know, bringing it
- 36:58Speaker 4: like you know what what what what the team it's
- 37:00Speaker 4: supposed to look like from a Camraaders' standpoint, playing for
- 37:04Speaker 4: each other, you know, on a on a personal level.
- 37:07Speaker 4: And he really you know, working with Mike Travay, he
- 37:10Speaker 4: really bought into that and and and wanted to work with.
- 37:12Speaker 1: That in the off season and it's important to.
- 37:14Speaker 4: Him and and he knew it at the end of
- 37:16Speaker 4: the season last years, like I want to come together
- 37:19Speaker 4: and be more of a team, and.
- 37:20Speaker 2: He did it.
- 37:22Speaker 3: How special was it to watch Jody Allen hoist that trophy?
- 37:25Speaker 5: Really cool?
- 37:26Speaker 4: Yeah, Jody's been amazing. She's been, uh, she's been a
- 37:30Speaker 4: great she's been a great owner, she's been a great friend.
- 37:33Speaker 4: She's been you know, she's she's into it.
- 37:36Speaker 5: She loves it.
- 37:37Speaker 4: You know, she she calls you out when you're not
- 37:40Speaker 4: on your game, and you know she's she's uh, she's awesome.
- 37:44Speaker 1: It was really important.

- 37:48Speaker 6: appreciate it.
- 37:48Speaker 1: Congratulates I don't know.
- 37:50Speaker 2: I mean we've we've certainly aired some of those interviews
- 37:52Speaker 2: from Jessman in the locker room after the game, but
- 37:56Speaker 2: maybe not enough of them, And so I wanted to
- 37:57Speaker 2: make sure you heard that. I thought that was outstanding
- 38:00Speaker 2: to capture that moment with the Executive of the Year,
- 38:02Speaker 2: and he's always so colorful and flavorful with his commentary,
- 38:06Speaker 2: so certainly wanted to play that before the week comes
- 38:08Speaker 2: to a close and we start moving away from this celebration.
- 38:12Speaker 2: And so nice job by Jessmon, and we're going to
- 38:15Speaker 2: talk more about the John Schneider we saw it yesterday
