• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Man, that was after game five and he's still he's
• 3:33

  Speaker 4: can use that audio Monday for kicks of the ball.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, when they uh, they're asking sg A, it's almost
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: a fair first of all, in the post mortem of
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the Thunder losing and not defending their title, they're asking
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: SGA like, you know, what are you gonna?
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: What does this team need and everything like I'm not
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: the Yeah, you did a really good job answering that one.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I'm a player, right, And but then he did say
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: and we all remember Janis and Eric Name when Eric
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Name says this season of failure, and Giannis went into
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: that long soliloquy about is it failure was a failure
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: every time Michael Jordan didn't win. It's not a failure.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? That's success?
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Was the thing? Yeah, it's like but SJA said it
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: was a failure that they didn't win and did failure.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: I thought it was interesting when I heard that. I said,
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: I wonder if that, you know, if he if people
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: think about.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: That yannest thing now when they when they're answering.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: That question, because Yanni's got a lot of you know,
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: flakback from that a little bit, so maybe guys are
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: ready to say, no, no, it was a failure. I'm just
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: gonna put it out there so you don't jump on
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: me like people were jumping on Giannis a little bit nationally.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: I'm just curious to know a little bit about that,
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: or maybe it doesn't cross their mind at all.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Both are possible. Both are possible. All right, hit us
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: with your game balls and kicks. Eight seven seven, seven
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: nine four one ninety seven three. Game ball to the
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Milwaukee Panthers.
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: Come on, now, the Mizard of Oz I shocked.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: The world by beating Auburn, Yes, spanking Auburn, and then
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: double it up by just dismantling UCF on night number
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: two and get themselves what looks like now they give
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: themselves a little bit of cushion. Now hopefully tonight they
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: can they can advance.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: They got to play again tonight against Auburn again to
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: see who advances.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: And it's like, that's the way this is tournament is
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: set up.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: You went two impressive lopsided victories to get the right
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: to play in the double A limb. And then they
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: lose to Auburn late last night and whether delayed start,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: and then now they go back at it against the Tigers.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Today and now if they win, so this is basically
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: for all the marbles, right, you win in advance and
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: went in advance for both sides because I was I
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: should not be as dumb as I am, but I
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: was really really struggling to figure out how all these
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: these rules were working in the in the regionals and
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: super regionals. But Saturday night, I'm really glad I was
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: second screening at the time that I was, because I mean,
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: they were just putting it on UCF. And when you
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: start realizing that you have it all going for you,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: when the center fielder has a beat on a fly
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: ball deep into the gap and doesn't catch it all right,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: you think quick double.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Now my man didn't catch it.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: He did catch it with the back of his noggin
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: and the ball spin off of the head ricochet over
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: the wall for a ten.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: To one lead. That's what you know.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: It might just be going your way. It might just
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: be happening in your favor. When the ball is literally
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: dome shotting guys going over the wall.
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: I love the you know, I love the story of
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: this UWM baseball team. It's been really impressive. Red a tweet,
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: don't have it now in front of me. But of
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: all the bad losses they had earlier in the year,
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: how much they struggled to how much they've kind of
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: turned this thing around and become a Cinderella. They were
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: like five and twenty two at one point. Yeah, they
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: were getting run ruled by teams. But this is why
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: we love sports.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: This is why we.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: Believe in never giving up, that you always always give
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: it a shot, you always have faith that maybe you
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: can turn it around. That's what getting back on the
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: horse and playing is all. And I just love what
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: they're representing right now. What a great center all the story.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: It's thirteen runs in the first two games, thirteen runs
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: each of the first two games, twenty six runs in
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: two games. Insane. I love it. Well, you're gonna win
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: a lot of games playing that way. Mashing absolutely man
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: and representing the state. I mean, it is the only
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: D one baseball team in the state, you know so well.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: And the cool thing that.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: We were able to hear a lot of was Murph
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: talking about it throughout the weekend because Todd Rosiak asking
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: some cool questions on the trip this weekend being a
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: UWM describe and writing about the basketball team and obviously
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: the baseball team as well. I didn't realize that Murph
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: has such a cool relationship with the head coach at UWM. Yeah,
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: and not only do they talk, you know, a couple
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: of times a week. Murph's like, yeah, we had them
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: out right before they left. They were at the game
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: on Wednesday and then flew out to their regional So
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: these guys are having as Pat said, still for some
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: in college sports and for Milwaukee, it has to be this.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: You are focused on giving players and the athletes an
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: incredible experience. You're not gonna get rich playing baseball at UWM.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: Now there used to be a time and place where
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: you weren't getting rich playing any college baseball in the SEC.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: You're making some nice cash like this Auburn team, I
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: bet is decently well funded. Uh when you look at
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: that war Eagle Stadium and instead they're gonna lose guys.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: When you have a really, really good year, they're gonna
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: bring guys in and bring guys, and guys are gonna
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: leave after a solid one. Somebody's gonna slide somewhere else.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: Transfer in so many Wisconsin guys, so many area dudes,
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: and just a collection guys that are clicking at the
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: right time. So let's get one more dub here tonight
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: down there in Auburn, Alabama and send this thing back.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: I also liked that they might be on the They
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: might be on one of the main channels and not
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: just ESPN Plus coming up tonight.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: How about that on the big channels. Let's go. I'm
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: liking that.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Don't need this, You don't need the Plus subscription if
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: you don't have it. Yeah, I'm liking it.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: How about a kick to the balls to the Illinois legislature.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hm, off the press, Billy.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: So, the Illinois Legislation and State Senate had a large
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: time throughout the months of April and May to come
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: up with a bill to help keep the Chicago Bears
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: in the state of Illinois, and their deadline was May
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: thirty first and now this morning. According to many, including
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: Ian Rappaport as one your boy, Brendan Moore, Illinois government
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: and political reporter for Capital News Illinois, I'm gonna go
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: with him.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: He's also a corn dot connoisseur. Okay, so you're.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: A corn dog connoisseur. I'm gonna be listening to Brendan
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Moore a lot more. And Brendan Moore said breaking the
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Illinois House is about to adjourn. They won't vote on
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: the Bears stadium bill just sent over to the Senate
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: or just sent over from the Senate. Unless a special
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: session is called in the summer, they won't be back
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: until no November. Rap sheet had it a little bit
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: earlier on that. The Illinois House ended its session early
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: this morning without a final passage, and the Bears put
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: out a statement saying, quote, we will finalize our evaluation
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: of both Arlington Heights and Hammond, Indiana, and we will
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: remain on the late spring early summer timeline that we
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: have previously communicated. We will provide an update when we
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: have a decision to share. Well, that decision is looking
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: more and more like it's going to be the Illinois
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Bears or the Indiana Bears coming up here pretty soon
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: if this new stadium comes in. Now, I don't know
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: all of the numbers and the political parts of the
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: equation drew, but just from the brass tacks and the numbers,
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: it seems like a great deal that they're getting in Indiana,
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: and it would for what seemed like some posturing. Now
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: the state of Illinois feels like they're kind of calling
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: the Bears bluff, and we'll see if the Bears are
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: about that action. If they get gonna get a sweet
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: deal right across the border. I don't think it would
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: be as terrible as US Packers fans are gonna let
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: Bears fans hear about, because it's probably gonna be closer
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: for some downtown than it would be to go to
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: Arlington Heights.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Just flip over to the other side.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but wow, the Indiana Bears is gonna hit so
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: so differently. It is when that finally gets crossed over
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: here in the next couple of weeks.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's a game ball for us or kicking
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: the ball. You look at it, but I love it
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: because we're gonna try and dunk on that. But you're right, Billy,
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: it is. I mean, when you consider the tax ramifications
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: and the lack of liquidity that the Bears ownership family has,
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: this might be the best deal for them, but it's
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: always gonna be I feel if you're one of the
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: Packer fans and you're just looking for something to dunk
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: and the Bears fans about one of those little things
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: you can you can do to kind of disparage them.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: But it will be interesting.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: It does seem like, yeah, the legislature, you know what,
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: in the end, we know you want to be in
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: Chicago Land, in Illinois Chicago Land.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: So we're gonna we're gonna call your bluff on that.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: This whole thing is is funny because it's still making
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: Bears fans nervous to not know what's gonna happen, leave
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: them in limb which is what I love the most.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: So I love seeing this thing play out. And maybe
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: we're a step closer to Indiana Bears. We'll see.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: I mean yeah, it's like just for looking at it
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: from a distance, so you can just chuckle. Yes, not
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: just like this has been going on.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: For like five years. They've been looking for this, shaking
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: the trees.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: And they bought the land drew in Arlington Heights, just
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: out of the pandemic. So I mean yeah, they've been
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: sitting here wondering about it. And then you know, late
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: down the entrance ramp a couple of days ago was
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: the Mayor of Chicago and the Chicago Brass saying, hey,
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: what if o this yar us out?
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: What if we build it downtown? It's like I think
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: we've been talking about this would last fifteen years. Guy,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's gonna work.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: And instead they continually tried to go back and forth
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: find different ways of keeping it downtown. Would there be
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: a way to keep it downtown, Maybe we should build
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: it downtown. Well, no, Arlington Heights makes more sense. And
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: now Indiana's like, hey, man, we're open for business. We
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: got the plot of land, you already got it surveyed
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: by the NFL. We got a sweet sweetheart package. As
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: to how this is all gonna get paid off, You
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: just let us know when you want to dance. And
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: instead they've they've slid into those dms far too long
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: into Indiana, and now it's gonna be put up her,
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: shut up time. Everybody knows that you've been dming them.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: Everybody knows that you've been having the conversations are you
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: gonna go home?
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Are you gonna go home with ho? We Hammond Indiana,
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: And I think they just might. Yeah, it's really interesting.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: And to what your point, Billy.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: The one thing we do know for sure is the
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: Bears has said we're not going to be in the
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: city of Chicago. All of our options are exhausted. That
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: was their statement last week. So that's one thing we know.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: But man, this is this is getting This is getting fun.
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: If you like to watch a little bit of discontent
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: down there.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah eight seven seven seven three. Uh, kick to the balls.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: Whoever declared today National olive Day?
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, gross man, h storry arman. I like them, but
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: I'm not I understand and why some don't.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: The Mediterranean fruit and its culinary uses like black olives,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: greenous don't like it.
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: Somebody's just say it's very important in cooking in general.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: Olive oil oil is fine oil.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a different deal than the actual black or green.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: Little get the colds, you get the bron ones, not
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: the ones with the pit are annoying because you might
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: bite on that seat. But listen, I get why it
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: could be distasteful to something. I understand that it's kind
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: of a unique taste.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but they try to force it down your throat
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: and just about everything. Well, every good Supreme pizza is
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: gonna come with olives that nobody wants that.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: My wife doesn't like it either, But I mean, I
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: like them, but you're right, even my way does. She's like,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: get these olives off the pizza. I'm like, well to.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: The point where if I get a Palermo's frozen pizza
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: like a Supreme, which generally is the one that I'm buying. Sure,
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: before I pop that sucker into the oven, Drew, I'll
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: start poking around and just layer them onto like one
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: or two slices that I know my wife is gonna
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: have because I just don't want it to I just
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: don't want it around. It's not the fact that I
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: understand people like them, No, it's I don't. I understand
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: people have you know, bad taste buds. But they're just
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: it's just sitting there infecting this beautiful piece.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: Of pizza and you don't take them off before you
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: cook it. It really.
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: The taste is infused. So to your point, Billy, and
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: I will agree with you on that. You gotta think
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: I feel that way about peas. That's the one food
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: I've always hated, and I think they're they're tasted.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: What is what is a peon a pee? Right? They're
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: not on anything?
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, like if anything, it's like scroll or something.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: But like some soups and some dishes have peas in it,
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: you know, and there's not as Yeah, it's not as common.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: You just don't buy the freezer bag of peas.
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: Which I do. I don't unless my daughter is eating them.
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: I don't don't. I don't buy them for myself. But
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: but you're right, the taste is infused, is my point.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: So it sounds like it sounds like you are also
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: on the little bit of the how I meant your
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: mother olive theory that they one time had one person
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: in the in the relationship like solives, the other one
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: won't like them.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: That's interesting, right, Like it's that it's.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: Ba Basically, you know your match when all of a sudden,
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: if they put a jar olives down and you're not
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: touching it and the other person on the date goes
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: and grabs a couple, you guys just might be made
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: for each other.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: Even in a martini, even a blue cheese stuffed olive.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Not even to it.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: No, no true, I'm right there with your No, I'm
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: not going to touch it. No, thank you, Tony. No
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: Creek has a good one for us. Game ball to
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: whomever designed the ball caps for the Milwaukee Panthers baseball.
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: Team, the Mizard of Oz people talking about that.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: So true, Tony, so true. Kick to the balls.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: To the UWM Athletic Department for making sure no one
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: can buy those hats. Yeah, nothing has changed since I
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: graduated from that place in ninety seven. D three schools
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: have better marketing and online sales platforms than Uwell.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Be the change.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: Dang it, Tony, you took the words right out of
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: my mouth, because I'm watching this game on Saturday night,
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: and if you haven't seen it, it's an all black
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: hat with just like the closed back the flex fit,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: and it's the state of Wisconsin white outline with the
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: small little MUWM logo right as to where Milwaukee would be.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: And hold on, hey, give me one of these. Looking
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: up Milwaukee Panthers Baseball. Go onto the main website. I'm
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: seeing a bunch of old school.

• 17:16
  Speaker 3: that's just not gonna play.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: That's not gonna play baseball.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: Nothing here, And then I almost but I felt like
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: I was gonna risk looking too much like Harman Sorry,
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: And I was gonna tweet at UWM Baseball, pardon me,
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: MKE Baseball. I was gonna tweet at Milwaukee Baseball and say,
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: excuse me, how do I get one of these sweet hats?
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: I will pay for it, but I wouldn't necessarily love to.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: But if there would be a possibility for us to
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: sport one of them hats. They got to figure out
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: how to put those things available.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: They were bad. Absolutely.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: Also their uniform their jerseys are pretty sweet as well,
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: with the big MKA right across them.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: I like those.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, i'd be smart for someone there to you know,
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: jump on that.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Now, this is the time to do it. So we'll
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: see if it happens.
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: You know, fanatics won't so we're not don't get any

  Speaker 4: help from Michael Ruben, but maybe someone on the east
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: side can can get those things mocked up.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just I wish they did do a
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: better job of that. The apparel well, and I thought
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: you would have been able to anybody.

• 18:12
  Speaker 3: this indrew for the panther sailing.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm telling you we need it that. The MK
• 18:19

• 19:46
  Speaker 1: app Drew, Billy and Armon, joined by our halftime correspondent
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Scott Dolphins. So you can wait on the major topic
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: of the day. Do you like olives? National Olive Day?
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: I didn't know that, but yeah.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Right now, how about this where we get this? Now
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: we're talking crazy?
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know why I went to that. Sorry,
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: I do like olives, Drew. I like both kinds, black
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: and green. I don't eat them very often though.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: All right, so arman, he's one of you. Armand likes
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: the olives somebody they're good, man. I love them, but
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: I accept that not everyone does.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: I get it, and I'm always perplexed because it's a
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: very polarizing food for some cilantro You either like them
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: or that's sure.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: There's no middle ground. Okay, it's like either yes, all
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: in or no, nastiest stuff.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: And I never understand why stores have to devote so
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: much real estate to an olive bar.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: It's like, come on, there's a lot of olives.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: So what are we doing? Who's like standing there like
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: over the olive bar. I gotta get these fresh kalmadas,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: The only one was me at the grocery store trying
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: to figure out which ones I was supposed to buy
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: because my kid likes to eat them, right like the
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: little cops. Or I get the jar and all right,
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: and I'm sending the picture of my wife. Make sure
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: that this doesn't because just grab one. Well that's a
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: lot easier, said that.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Done. Yeah, there's only fifty kinds. Knows I'm gonna grab
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: the wrong ones like spice.
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: You can get the jalapeno ones, the big martini ones
• 21:07
  Speaker 6: that are stuffed I prefer, I think the I like
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: the salt, so I like the green olivem.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm put them on a pizza.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, because I like pickles obviously, so salty vinegar
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: tastes what I like that.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: And our buddy Rob said, black olives the only pizza
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: popping that my family can agree upon.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: Oh boy, that's the first thing I'm moving. Only time
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I like I will tolerate any black olives is in
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: the taco dip, but sparingly, not just completely overwearing it.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: I will scoop around just about every single olive too,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: if you if you have happen to get one. Incidentally,
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: it's okay, right, I'm not gonna take it off all
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: the time. Olive skin makes a good kid, that's right.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: Tell them again, Tell them again. Oh again, tell them again.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: By the way, I don't know when to add any
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: pressureor anything, but our show today is international because friend
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: of the program Rich is listening to us while drinking
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Guinness in Galway, Ireland.
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: Rich Rich, I was, I love Galway. No, I guess
• 22:00
  Speaker 6: it rains there a lot, but we were there two
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: years ago and had a few pints right sitting outside,
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: right on that main street in Galway. That's a cool
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: little town, ancient town too. I was disappointed our trip ended.
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: That was as far north as we went because the
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: Dolphin clan came from Slago, which is another ninety minutes
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: straight Northolk.
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: Gol Wow, how about that. Yeah, it's cool to have
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: know the roots of your family like that.
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: You know, they know exactly where they came from and stuff.
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, we've had people in the family do that.
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: Genealogyalogy went all the way back to the late seventeen hundreds.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: It's pretty cool. Yeah, those were popular for a while.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: I've heard anyone doing it lately, but everyone was doing
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: the twenty three and me type of thing, you know.
• 22:38
  Speaker 6: And I don't want to do that because I don't
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: want to find out I'm actually not Irish at all.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: That's fair. Rock you to your whole core of your beliefs, right,
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: rattle everything that you've once known about your proud life
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: and everything that you planned on being able to say yeah,
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: I uh.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: The one time that I almost did and then you know,
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: I arment sorry and start the price tag and said
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: no chance was while my my at the time girlfriend
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: now wife, and I were were dating. Her mom's maiden
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: name was Schmidt. Oh, so you're like Schmid and everyone's like, hey,
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: why don't.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: We make sure just to make sure that she'll.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: Make sure here, all right, I just make sure. I'm like, no,
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: I'm a low T, all right, I got no T.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: That might be more of a problem for Game Day
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Men's house. They might be able to help me out
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: with that situation. The naming was the more of the
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: problem I thought with with bloodlines. I've heard once you
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: get you know, three or four cousins away.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: You're fine, Billy. You've been hanging out in Alabama a lot. Huh.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Some people believe.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Some people believe all our means or fifty first cousins
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: with each other. But I don't know all that stuff.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: I don't know how you can possibly figure that out.
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: But I suppose if you go way far and far
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: and far and far enough back talking about hundreds and
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: hundreds of years, if your people exist for that long,
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: then I suppose there's some sort of connection.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: Oh, I imagine there is. Yeah, it's almost impossible. Those
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: things you know, all of the name Billy is Yeah,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: you cleared that up. You're good.
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: The thing about that twenty three mean stuff though, I'm
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: a big This tells you how old I'm. I'm a
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: big dateline guy and Friday Night.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: War than not.
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: With DNA matching and stuff, they go to those geniality
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: man places to get the blood work done to see
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: if there's a match or if if if it's a
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: relative of somebody close that that's a suspect. It's pretty
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: a fascinating stuff.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: So they were, they were solving cold cases on twenty
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: three and means what you're saying, kind of data Yeah,
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: that's awesome.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Not awesome for those facts.
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: Not awesome for the bodycam footage of the young lady
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: that's about forty five years past the crime and all
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: you're like, wait, what do you mean, I gotta put

  Speaker 1: You caught up in the wave of the Milwaukee Panthers
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: running the NCAA tournament. We're just talking about how someone
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: said gave a kick to the balls to the athletic
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: department because they wear these really cool hats and gear
• 24:51

• 25:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I got caught up in fact this morning, I
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: was digging through my closet, but I apparently I gave
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: away my UWM golf shirt and my UWM T shirt
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: that I got for free at a game from Gruber
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: several years ago.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Caught one of the three point T shirts.
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I was looking forward to wearing that to work today.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Was a T shirt from Grooberl Offices.
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: It's what a story I mean. Regard irregard whatever happens

• 25:32
  Speaker 2: and you see the kids, you know, mostly Wisconsin kids
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: contributing to.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: That might be the coolest part that how many of
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: the kids are from Wisconsin. And I mean, again not
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: not to belabor the point of it being so unlikely,
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: but in Auburn you can play baseball outside in Alabama
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: for what eleven months out of the year. Yeah, absolutely,
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: and here for half of the season, if not longer.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Their field's covered in snow.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: So I mean like their.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: Ability to be able to still put together a season
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: like this, and the player development is pretty top nine.
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: And it's that one sport billy where you see the
• 26:04
  Speaker 6: disparity in the records. Look at ucla good point, at
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: least it used to be. I haven't looked this year,
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: but oftentimes you'll see some teams playing eighty games and
• 26:12
  Speaker 6: some teams playing fifty games.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: That's a lot in college baseball, a lot, absolutely a lot.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Well, and you want to talk about the travel budget,
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: like if you're if you're playing some of those games
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: and trying to get some in down south.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: That's a that's a heck of a sports we played.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: I played junior college baseball.
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: We took one trip a year to someplace warm, and
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: one year I went we went out west to Arizona,
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: New Mexico, Colorado. Ain't warm in Colorado.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: By the way over east. Yeah, that's not a very
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: warm We had wind chills in the twenties.
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: And then the second year we went down to Louisiana, Florida,
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: Arkansas and that was a little warm.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: We told the baseball team we were gonna go down
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: and watch them play on their spring break trip. A
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: lot of times, I remember, Kara, we told them a
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: lot of times. Here you go down to Charleston and
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: go watch this slay. We went to PCA instead, but
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: our PCB instead, but we went Seth Padre instead.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: But thought about it.
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: That's the only thing to suck about playing baseball in
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: college was we never got a spring break.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: He'll be always well, we made up for it. You're
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: gonna say you were able to.
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: Make as spending our per diem on beer and then
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: going back to the red roof in and filling up
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: the bathtub there.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: We go. That is how you feel, how you do it.

  Speaker 2: wouldn't be but butchy appearance. We couldn't welcome into the
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: I couldn't welcome in with a huddle without our production standards.
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: And the den too, which right now is my favorite moment.
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: We are in the den, Butchie, how are things?
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: It's going good boys, how are you doing?
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: We're fantastic. We're reveling in the Brewers hot start. We're
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: onto June, talking about we're one hundred days away from
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: the NFL season kicking off. We're just trying to savor
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: what we have at this very moment. That's our strategy today.
• 28:53
  Speaker 7: I it feels good to me. It's a good strategy.
• 28:56
  Speaker 7: You got the Brewers, the hottest team in all of baseball.
• 28:59
  Speaker 7: What they're doing they're on to watch miss is amazing.
• 29:02
  Speaker 7: It's just just absolutely amazing at what he's doing. The
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: fact that the Brewers continue continue to hit on all
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: these guys that nobody wants is awesome because it's so Wisconsin,
• 29:14
  Speaker 7: Like why I love the Brewers the most is because
• 29:16
  Speaker 7: they they they represent this state.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: It's a bunch of.
• 29:21
  Speaker 7: Nobody's that kind of just are hardworking guys that just
• 29:25
  Speaker 7: come to the ballpark every single day.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: Check in, do their job, check out.
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: You don't have anything crazy going on with this group,
• 29:33
  Speaker 7: Like I think this group probably represents the state, probably
• 29:38
  Speaker 7: as good as any of our sports teams, to be honest.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and Brian, that's why it made sense when they
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: did the Wisco way.
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: Now nobody says Wisco.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: I don't know if actually they do in the Fox
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: Valley as much as in wisconsination. Outside of Carnipples Fame,
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: nobody calls it that. However, it was cool to embody
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: what it was. It is the States team, and everybody
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: thinks about that for the Packers, But the Brewers, I
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: think are right up there. You go through any supper
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: club in north the north Woods of Wisconsin, you're going
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: to see Brewers TV on right, You're going to see
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: it outside of a lake randomly in the middle of Crivit.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: So they're going to be the state's team. They represent everybody.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: They also about the talent development, which is a kind
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: of bygone thing, and you see in basketball so much,
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: but in baseball too. I mean, travel ball has been
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: a thing for a long time, and that developed player
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: development to winning philosophy is very different. They got a
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: bunch of guys that seemingly are about the right stuff too.
• 30:31
  Speaker 7: Well exactly, and you have to be the reason player
• 30:34
  Speaker 7: development works is when you're humble. When you have players
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: that can be humble and understand that there is a
• 30:39
  Speaker 7: next step that needs to be made within their career.
• 30:42
  Speaker 7: There's a lot of players that aren't humble, that that
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: feel like they've already maxed out, that they don't need
• 30:48
  Speaker 7: to listen. They have all the answers, and when you
• 30:50
  Speaker 7: have players like that, you're not going to see growth.
• 30:54
  Speaker 7: And because of what the Brewers do, because of the
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: who they tap into, because they invest in the whole body, right,
• 31:00
  Speaker 7: the mind, all that stuff, their analytics approach to it.
• 31:04
  Speaker 7: To me, from what I've seen, is they've gathered the
• 31:07
  Speaker 7: right people where you can coach them up. And I
• 31:10
  Speaker 7: think that's really important. Whether you've gathered people that haven't
• 31:14
  Speaker 7: had the success that they should have when you look
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: at where their ratings were as far as you know
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: the projections, whether you've pulled teams or guys from teams
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: from big markets because they just a big market hasn't
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: worked because there's more attention on them. Whatever the reason,
• 31:31
  Speaker 7: the Brewers have done, They've gotten guys that have been
• 31:34
  Speaker 7: humbled a little bit that then they've been able to
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: work with that. Then they've been able to listen to
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: and then they've had success. It's it's been really fun
• 31:42
  Speaker 7: to watch.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: Ryan Butch joining us here on the Nicolay Lotto.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: I'm talking text on all right, but you I'm gonna
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: put a quarter and ask you what you think about
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: the Knicks and the Spurs advancing to the NBA Finals,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: which start Wednesday night.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: Is this Wemby time?
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Or can the Knicks counterbalance that and just say, Okay,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: we don't have anybody that's as good as Wemby, but
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: we have more experience and more talent on the rest
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: of the court.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:03
  Speaker 7: I think the question becomes how bad is Mitchell Robinson's
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: thumb the center one of the centers for the next
• 32:08
  Speaker 7: I think that's a big deal because you're gonna need
• 32:10
  Speaker 7: bodies on Wenby that That's the only question. I'm gonna
• 32:13
  Speaker 7: lean towards the Knicks here, just because you've got experienced
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: guard play.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: I mean it's Villanova two point zero is what it is.
• 32:20
  Speaker 7: Well, there's a lot of there's a lot of you know,
• 32:23
  Speaker 7: experience there with the Villanova team. Now you look at
• 32:26
  Speaker 7: San Antonio, they didn't have experience. Well they still beat
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: Oklahoma City. Would be would be the counter, right, like
• 32:31
  Speaker 7: how much does experience matter? But I just thinking what
• 32:36
  Speaker 7: this Knicks team has done. It feels like they've tapped
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: into something special. They got rid of Tims, they brought
• 32:41
  Speaker 7: in Mike Brown. Now you look at what Mike Brown
• 32:43
  Speaker 7: is doing. Who is let go from from a Sacramento
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: and it's like, okay, what what's the next step? When
• 32:49
  Speaker 7: Mike Brown was hired, everyone's like, well, what why would
• 32:52
  Speaker 7: you make that higher?
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: If you're the Knicks.
• 32:54
  Speaker 7: Now you look at they've got to a finals. They've
• 32:56
  Speaker 7: got some guard play, they've got some Experience's phenomenal, Like
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: there's there's I don't know how you guard him, and
• 33:05
  Speaker 7: I don't think you guard him.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: What would you have tried to do? Because you got to.
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: Take away Champagne, You got to take away all the
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: other guys who get forty or fifty. And I didn't
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: think Oklahoma City did did a good enough job of
• 33:16
  Speaker 7: taking away the others, And I think that's what the
• 33:18
  Speaker 7: Knicks are gonna do.
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: Everybody's everybody's dunking on chat Holmgern similarly to how Wemby did.
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: But like, how do how do you try to Brian?
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: Like there's there's not anything that you can do to
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: try and eliminate him. I feel like, if you're one
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: of those bigs, Hartenstein did everything he could physically to
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: try to body him up. But my man in that
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: slender frame is a lot more physically imposing than I
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: gave him credit for.
• 33:39
  Speaker 7: Well, when you're that tall, you're you're you're lanky strong,
• 33:43
  Speaker 7: if that makes sense. You got elbow. Everything you have
• 33:46
  Speaker 7: is a little bit more pointy. It's not about the bulk.
• 33:50
  Speaker 7: It's more about, Okay, are you strong enough to be
• 33:52
  Speaker 7: able to get to your position?
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: You're tall enough to get whatever you want.
• 33:55
  Speaker 7: Uh. The one area that I thought Chet did a
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: terrible job with I didn't think he was aggressive on
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: the offensive end.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought that was an.
• 34:01
  Speaker 7: Area where his youth showed in that Oklahoma series, Oklahoma
• 34:06
  Speaker 7: City series, because I just I didn't think he was
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: aggressive enough. And when you're going against the guy, you
• 34:10
  Speaker 7: gotta make him work on that other end, it wasn't there.
• 34:14
  Speaker 7: I don't know how much New York's Biggs You're gonna
• 34:16
  Speaker 7: have to make Wemby work, But I anticipate in New
• 34:19
  Speaker 7: York putting Wymby in a bunch of ballscreen actions, trying
• 34:22
  Speaker 7: to get him to move so that offensively he's tired.
• 34:25
  Speaker 7: But again I go back to this, like, you gotta
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: take away the others for Santa che If Wenby's gonna
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: go get fifty and that number is great, go get
• 34:33
  Speaker 7: your fifty, but I can't get seventy from the others.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: I think that's the biggest thing. And that's what I
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: look at.
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: As far as with Oklahoma City, I didn't think did
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: nearly good enough job, and I think New York will.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: So I look at this. I take New York just
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: to win the series.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: I think it's hilarious too. When we're talking last year
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: watching Ace Bailey and Dylan Harper on Rutgers, like how
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: on earth are they under five hundred in the Big ten,
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: And then Harper comes out and makes every right play
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: like that's that's impressive, impressive stuff to be able to
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: flip the switch that quickly Brian Busch hanging out with us.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: The Polar Bear has welcomed us into the den. Butchy's
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: Den is where you subscribe via YouTube at Brian Underscore

• 35:18
  Speaker 3: seven thirty, I was loving up the live and I
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: know I'd dropped in a couple of comments there as well,
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: But Man, living and doing good, which you always have done,
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: is still what this is about. I know it's camp season.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: I know there's a lot of player development that's gonna
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: going on too, but it is the thirty fifth annual
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: Children's Celebrity Golf Invitational coming up a week from today,
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: and Brian Butch is the head of this, has been
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: doing it for so long and man, thirty five years.
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: I know you have been there all this time, but
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: you to be able to bring this together, bring so
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: many people out here continually welcome me, which did make
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: the joke of celebrity. I apologize for all those folks
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: that potentially end up in my foursome, but this is
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: talk about doing the most good, been for a long
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: time and once again being able to help out a
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: spot that's so near and dear to the heart.
• 36:05
  Speaker 7: Well, I was just trying to help you get a
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: community service day, that's all.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Well I should.
• 36:12
  Speaker 7: You guys have so many community service days you got
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: to use trust me, so spirit days.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: I was one of those shoes. Man. I needed to
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: fill up my community service day.
• 36:20
  Speaker 7: She said, I got.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: A community service I got to use this one up.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Bonus Bonus day, Spirit day.
• 36:29
  Speaker 7: I appreciate. No, it's you know, next Monday. It's crazy
• 36:32
  Speaker 7: how fast it happens, but it's here again. And uh,
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: obviously Children's Hospital a big part of our family. All
• 36:40
  Speaker 7: three of our kids have have had different, you know,
• 36:43
  Speaker 7: tiers of of need. Obviously Blake having brain surgery last September.
• 36:48
  Speaker 7: And I was at Coaches Versus Cancer event with Coach
• 36:52
  Speaker 7: Ryan on Friday night. And uh, I when I say this,
• 36:56
  Speaker 7: I mean this. We we get to celebrate Blake Thursday.
• 37:00
  Speaker 7: It's his birthday. It'll be six.
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: I saw that big birthday party, right it was.
• 37:05
  Speaker 7: Well, that was all my wife's decorations, one with the family.
• 37:08
  Speaker 7: But he's said, I can't believe it. We we get
• 37:11
  Speaker 7: to do that. And I use that word get because
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: not every parent gets to bring their kid home from
• 37:17
  Speaker 7: numerous things.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: And I had a chance.
• 37:20
  Speaker 7: To talk with a family who didn't get to chance
• 37:22
  Speaker 7: bring their boy home Friday night, and it's it's one
• 37:27
  Speaker 7: of those where you sit back and you realize, because
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: of the technology, because the doctors, we get to do
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: this this like it's not given that you get to
• 37:35
  Speaker 7: spend time with your kids, especially when they go through
• 37:38
  Speaker 7: things like it Blake did.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: That wasn't We didn't know it.
• 37:41
  Speaker 7: You know for sure if we were gonna what was
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: going to happen when you when they will your son
• 37:47
  Speaker 7: off in that hospital bed. That's a feeling no parent
• 37:52
  Speaker 7: ever remember, we'll ever forget. But we get to do
• 37:56
  Speaker 7: that because of because of doctor, because of medicine, because
• 38:01
  Speaker 7: of the technology and all that stuff.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: And what happens is it all calls money.
• 38:07
  Speaker 7: So the ability to be able to find ways to
• 38:10
  Speaker 7: give doctors, to give research, to give everybody, to give
• 38:13
  Speaker 7: us time. I'll say this Monday, and I'll say it now,
• 38:16
  Speaker 7: but the most valuable thing we have in this world
• 38:20
  Speaker 7: is time and we all want more of it. And
• 38:24
  Speaker 7: with research and technology and the great doctors, we were
• 38:29
  Speaker 7: able to get more time with Blake, and we're able
• 38:31
  Speaker 7: to get more time with him, like there's no value
• 38:34
  Speaker 7: on that. And I think that's the biggest thing that
• 38:36
  Speaker 7: I look at with some of these golf oundings, and
• 38:39
  Speaker 7: people ask, well, why do you get why is it
• 38:41
  Speaker 7: Monday golf golf ounding season in the state of Wisconsin.
• 38:44
  Speaker 7: Because there's a lot of great charities out there that
• 38:47
  Speaker 7: need money. So if you have a chance to do that,
• 38:49
  Speaker 7: if you have a chance to make a donation at
• 38:51
  Speaker 7: Children's Hospital, I know our family greatly appreciates it, but
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: I know it's not just our family, Armen. You've had
