3:48
Speaker 6: the same thing every single time.
3:49
Speaker 1: They never mess up.
3:50
Speaker 6: I couldn't fathom the fact that one it might have
3:52
Speaker 6: been recorded after they did it the first time. And
3:54
Speaker 6: then I couldn't fathom the fact that they didn't just
3:56
Speaker 6: live there, that they were just always on doing the
3:59
Speaker 6: same show for whenever you joined in progress kind of
4:02
Speaker 6: like us, Like I do wonder if there'll be certain
4:04
Speaker 6: individuals that finally find us on UH nine to twenty am,
4:07
Speaker 6: which we had a couple of people hit us up
4:09
Speaker 6: yesterday talking text line never closes. We mentioned that we
4:11
Speaker 6: say that this is the fact and the truth to it,
4:15
Speaker 6: because all of a sudden, you'll wake up to a
4:16
Speaker 6: message at about five oh two from eight seven seven

4:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, I be me responding to your text from the

4:35
Speaker 4: shouldn't do this at five in.
4:36
Speaker 1: The morning, but hey, it is what it is.
4:38
Speaker 6: Well, I just more more oversaw a message that somebody
4:42
Speaker 6: had asked us a question, and I was like, I
4:44
Speaker 6: had already responded. I typed it out. But I did
4:47
Speaker 6: something today that I did for the first time. I
4:49
Speaker 6: copy and pasted it, or I copied it quick sure,
4:51
Speaker 6: and I went back to see if youse guys had
4:54
Speaker 6: already responded, as both had already done it. So I
4:57
Speaker 6: was glad because we're excited. We want to let everybody
5:00
Speaker 6: know that the huddle is here, and you need to
5:02
Speaker 6: be in the huddle. Somebody needs to be the quarterbacks.
5:04
Speaker 6: Everybody get in here and roll. We can't be messing
5:07
Speaker 6: around no talking in the huddle. Let's figure this stuff
5:09
Speaker 6: out now.
5:10
Speaker 4: One day, my mom was watching Young Lenna and walked
5:14
Speaker 4: in and she said, what are you doing.
5:17
Speaker 1: You're on now. I said, no, I'm not, Mom, because
5:19
Speaker 1: you know, listen.
5:20
Speaker 4: It's been hard even for mom to follow, like the
5:22
Speaker 4: changing and schedules and things like that. She was watching
5:25
Speaker 4: the YouTube of the show and it had rolled into
5:29
Speaker 4: as you know on YouTube related videos, right, and it
5:32
Speaker 4: rolled into an old episode, you know, it just rolled
5:34
Speaker 4: into the next one, and she was watching old episode
5:36
Speaker 4: thinking it was live.
5:37
Speaker 1: So there you go.
5:39
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, Mom, didn't you know that? We
5:40
Speaker 4: were talking about it golf. Of course she doesn't know
5:42
Speaker 4: what game is, went like, she doesn't know that.
5:44
Speaker 1: So it's a good example.
5:45
Speaker 5: Billy. You're right.
5:46
Speaker 4: We're on all over the not just the state, all
5:48
Speaker 4: over the world, on the iHeart app and on YouTube,
5:51
Speaker 4: well most countries.
5:52
Speaker 1: I think you can access YouTube. Not every country, but
5:55
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know if that.
5:55
Speaker 4: There's restrictions in some countries, but we're out all over
5:58
Speaker 4: the world, so you can jump in.
5:59
Speaker 1: And get us.
6:00
Speaker 6: Many restrictions are something I never understand and I don't
6:03
Speaker 6: fully grasp drew until Super Bowl time. When you find
6:07
Speaker 6: out how many different broadcast crews are broadcasting and calling
6:12
Speaker 6: the Super Bowl for.
6:13
Speaker 1: Like nineteen different sub sections of the world. They all
6:17
Speaker 1: have different.
6:18
Speaker 7: Broadcasts bringing it too on the Armenia Sports Network. Like
6:21
Speaker 7: Ross Tucker started one of my favorites.
6:24
Speaker 6: He's calling the game on UK radio with the red
6:30
Speaker 6: haired guy with the beard who's gone viral with all
6:33
Speaker 6: of his touchdown calls. He's calling the game for radio
6:37
Speaker 6: in the UK. Now, if you're listening to the Super
6:39
Speaker 6: Bowl and you care about the Super Bowl and you're
6:41
Speaker 6: in the UK, I.
6:43
Speaker 1: Love the medium. It does start at twelve thirty at night.
6:48
Speaker 6: If you're listening on the radio, you either love those
6:51
Speaker 6: two young men or you are. You are hardy and
6:54
Speaker 6: wholesome and you're driving folks around to their Super Bowl
6:57
Speaker 6: parties because they are like nineteen different covered. I think
7:00
Speaker 6: dan Orlowski's doing the Australian one. Well, it's not going
7:03
Speaker 6: to use an Australian accent though, they're gonna be.
7:05
Speaker 4: You know, this is like one of those deals where
7:07
Speaker 4: you know, this is their one broadcast that the ear
7:09
Speaker 4: in a lot of these countries.
7:10
Speaker 1: They're going to pick up every guy they can.
7:11
Speaker 5: Why not.
7:13
Speaker 1: I'm available hot takes. Hot takes.
7:15
Speaker 7: If you're just joining us and you're just rolling on
7:17
Speaker 7: a bed, Hey, welcome, good morning, Glad you're with us
7:20
Speaker 7: on this chilly Wednesday.
7:21
Speaker 1: Uh, we've spun through the Bill Belichick situation. Muh.
7:26
Speaker 7: I gave him hot take that Gianna should just take
7:28
Speaker 7: a gap year and not play anymore for the Bucks.
7:30
Speaker 1: They should just shut him down because they're.
7:31
Speaker 7: Going to be so buried by the time he comes
7:33
Speaker 7: back from this second calf injury that it's just not
7:35
Speaker 7: even worth it. Just and then position it so that
7:39
Speaker 7: you bring him in, start asking him who we should draft,
7:43
Speaker 7: who we should be looking at, deputize him as a GM,
7:47
Speaker 7: and just like, let bring him in. What do you
7:48
Speaker 7: think of doc?
7:49
Speaker 1: This is make him an advisor for the rest of
7:51
Speaker 1: this year.
7:52
Speaker 6: And luckily he's been doing that for five years already,
7:54
Speaker 6: so he's he's got plenty of experience.
7:56
Speaker 7: He's got the rest of the rest. So that was
7:58
Speaker 7: one of ours we talked about. Billy talked about the
8:00
Speaker 7: Badger schedule that you can see nine and three. You
8:03
Speaker 7: can also see four and yeah, I like the.
8:05
Speaker 1: Ninety three one better. I like nine and three better.
8:07
Speaker 1: I could see eight four.
8:08
Speaker 6: I see progression and I also hopefully see somebody uh
8:12
Speaker 6: you know, staying healthy. That that mostly means the signal caller,
8:16
Speaker 6: which has issue for the last year. For the last
8:18
Speaker 6: couple of years, the Badgers haven't.
8:19
Speaker 4: They haven't had a starting quarterback healthy, So that'd be
8:22
Speaker 4: a nice start to have that, There's no question about it.
8:25
Speaker 6: I got another one, sorry, because I want to them
8:27
Speaker 6: in and I want to This one's gonna potentially warm
8:30
Speaker 6: the cockles of varmin. Sorry, oh, I can't wait. Don't
8:32
Speaker 6: mean to do that on a Wednesday and get y'all excited.
8:34
Speaker 6: But this one comes from the world of tennis. I
8:36
Speaker 6: know we mentioned and had a quick side. I saw
8:39
Speaker 6: the video now of the Cocoa goff smashing the racket
8:43
Speaker 6: after her quarterfinal uh loss in the Australian Open. My
8:47
Speaker 6: hot take is, we don't need cameras everywhere. We don't
8:51
Speaker 6: need cameras everywhere.
8:52
Speaker 1: As much as I love the content, as much as I.
8:55
Speaker 6: Want to know and as much as I want to
8:58
Speaker 6: see the excitement in the jubilation and the misery and
9:01
Speaker 6: the pain. Tennis is widely discussed and a lot of
9:05
Speaker 6: times told by people that love tennis. How gentlemanly, the
9:10
Speaker 6: game is right, how we are true, we are going
9:12
Speaker 6: to be very mature people do that.
9:13
Speaker 1: Yet what did Coco Goff do right there?
9:16
Speaker 6: She did an exceptional job of maintaining her composure after
9:20
Speaker 6: a difficult loss. Off the floor, shakes hands, grabs her stuff,
9:26
Speaker 6: then goes and lets out the frustration. What's supposed to
9:29
Speaker 6: be in a private individual moment, to see the drive
9:33
Speaker 6: and the competitiveness.
9:34
Speaker 1: Instead it turns into look at her.
9:37
Speaker 6: Just pouting that she loses. No, you want to see
9:39
Speaker 6: somebody that Matt cares. You want to see that the
9:42
Speaker 6: passion that comes out. But it's also the double edged
9:46
Speaker 6: sword of Drew when people want a pearl clutch and
9:48
Speaker 6: be mad at Ben Johnson for dropping an F bomb,
9:51
Speaker 6: or conversely so Sean McVeigh dropping a lot of MF
9:55
Speaker 6: bombs in the Bears visiting locker room the next week.
9:58
Speaker 6: We don't need cameras everywhere, that's great, And if you're
10:03
Speaker 6: gonna see these shots, don't don't make damning assumptions on
10:08
Speaker 6: human beings.
10:09
Speaker 1: What they believe are moments in broad And.
10:11
Speaker 4: These are the times when you start to think that.
10:13
Speaker 4: When people have accused Tennis of treating certain stars differently.
10:16
Speaker 4: They might have a point, like they yell about this
10:19
Speaker 4: about Coco and Serena, But would they say this about
10:21
Speaker 4: Stephie or Martina Hingis or somebody like Chris Evertt, Like,
10:24
Speaker 4: because you're right, Billy, at what point does it become
10:27
Speaker 4: this is actually a private area?
10:29
Speaker 1: Like this is like like so someone can show their frists.
10:32
Speaker 4: It's it's like the old baseball players with screaming in
10:34
Speaker 4: the glove to try and let their frustration out, but
10:36
Speaker 4: do it in a manner that wasn't outward right, or
10:39
Speaker 4: when Casey McGee would scream into his helmet helmet right
10:42
Speaker 4: when he dropped the fly ball. You try and do
10:44
Speaker 4: it in a controlled, safe environment. You punching a pillow? Well,
10:47
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I mean, what are you gonna do follow
10:49
Speaker 4: her all the way into the bathroom, like to see,
10:52
Speaker 4: like how the camera's going all the way? At what
10:54
Speaker 4: point is it a private You're absolutely right. I mean,
10:56
Speaker 4: she wasn't doing this in the in the theory of
10:58
Speaker 4: a public what we do in the public area. Didn't
11:01
Speaker 4: do it on the bench, she didn't do it between points.
11:03
Speaker 4: There wasn't gonna be a conduct an etiquette issue where
11:06
Speaker 4: you could lose points because of that. She wasn't breaking
11:08
Speaker 4: rackets like Nikkarios would do and all these things. So
11:11
Speaker 4: I totally agree with you. I thought that was a
11:14
Speaker 4: totally unfair criticism of her. I think most people see that.
11:17
Speaker 4: I think there was a select view that said, well,
11:19
Speaker 4: this is she shouldn't be breaking a racket.
11:21
Speaker 1: I'm like, are you kidding me? I think she's got enough.
11:23
Speaker 1: She broke a racket indoors.
11:26
Speaker 4: I mean, it wasn't even on the on the court,
11:27
Speaker 4: and she's not the first tennis player to get frustrated
11:30
Speaker 4: and breaking a racket.
11:31
Speaker 1: Okay, it's just not all right. So it's a little
11:33
Speaker 1: bit ridiculous. I totally agree with you.
11:35
Speaker 6: I would actually, Drew like to see more of this. Yeah,
11:38
Speaker 6: I would like to see I'd like to see more
11:39
Speaker 6: of that passion from golf. I mean, I'd like to
11:42
Speaker 6: see what happens when it was Uh, there was an
11:44
Speaker 6: individual Wyndham Clark, I believe this year that just took
11:47
Speaker 6: his nine iron to one of the clubhouse lockers at
11:51
Speaker 6: the US Open. Hey, by the way, don't ever come back.
11:55
Speaker 6: You're not allowed to ever come back. Sure there will
11:57
Speaker 6: be repercussions. I'm not saying you can't bye, I for
12:01
Speaker 6: one didn't really I was very indifferent on Wyndham Clarkett
12:04
Speaker 6: before that. After that, I think I've met him fifteen
12:07
Speaker 6: times to lead after the first round, because I like
12:09
Speaker 6: that kind.
12:10
Speaker 7: Of aware eight seven seven seven three centus your hot takes.
12:14
Speaker 7: So the Bills made their coaching here are still waiting
12:16
Speaker 7: on a couple of teams, right Joe Brady. It's like
12:19
Speaker 7: we did an exhaustive and extensive search of the hallway
12:23
Speaker 7: of the building and we decided to name Joe Brady
12:25
Speaker 7: arcok about that, And Josh Allen was sitting in on
12:28
Speaker 7: the interviews. Uh huh, and Josh Allen like they got
12:30
Speaker 7: the they elevated the offensive coordinator. Now the next shoot
12:34
Speaker 7: to drop there is the thinking is that Jim Leonard
12:36
Speaker 7: is going to be their defensive cordner. Jim Leonard, of course,
12:38
Speaker 7: had a pretty good run as player in Buffalo.
12:40
Speaker 1: Yeah twice.
12:41
Speaker 7: So maybe for all of the teeth gnashing that's been
12:45
Speaker 7: going on, But why did the Packers interview him Jonathan
12:47
Speaker 7: Kennet Maybe this was kind of already in the works,
12:50
Speaker 7: like he.
12:50
Speaker 6: Was gonna be the d seat no matter who they hired,
12:53
Speaker 6: no matter who they hired could have been a case
12:54
Speaker 6: right because they fire a defensive minded head coach.
12:57
Speaker 1: They were probably doing those interviews as well.
12:59
Speaker 7: They we're gonna go with them offensive guy. And then
13:01
Speaker 7: now it's a chance to bring Leonard back.
13:04
Speaker 6: Well, and I'm interested, Drew how much of the conversation
13:07
Speaker 6: was like ownership saying, Hey, we need to bring somebody
13:09
Speaker 6: in here that the fans are going to like and
13:10
Speaker 6: identify with because we're taking a little bit of a
13:13
Speaker 6: hit right now, right like we're not exactly in the
13:15
Speaker 6: best spot or who could pushed for it.
13:18
Speaker 1: I'm with you when I heard the Leonard thing, and
13:21
Speaker 1: Joe initially heard he was going with Harball, and then
13:22
Speaker 1: Harball went in another direction. Well, and you were right.
13:24
Speaker 1: He went to New York, just western New York. So
13:27
Speaker 1: you were so you're right.
13:28
Speaker 6: On Monday, you you you you early on gave yourself
13:32
Speaker 6: a pedalty flight. You were, you were correct. But the
13:34
Speaker 6: the other part of it for the Joe Brady deal
13:38
Speaker 6: is you started to hear his name more and more
13:40
Speaker 6: throughout the weekend. I'm not trying to be uh, I'm
13:43
Speaker 6: not trying to be Josh Payton level. Where like you
13:44
Speaker 6: started hearing things, and all of a sudden, now we
13:46
Speaker 6: start relaying him after it all happens. But it sounded
13:49
Speaker 6: like people were hearing he might get the job and
13:53
Speaker 6: that it was real that they might just promote from
13:55
Speaker 6: within through hot take. I think all of us, especially
13:58
Speaker 6: in media, have uh have been one of the interviewees
14:01
Speaker 6: for a job like that. You're like, sweet, exhaustive search
14:05
Speaker 6: for this spot. They're gonna hire somebody. They're gonna hire
14:08
Speaker 6: the best cannon. Oh never mind, yeah, how are that guy?
14:11
Speaker 6: It was already in the building, already there.
14:12
Speaker 1: I didn't have a chance. What are you gonna talk?
14:14
Speaker 1: Not to pay moving expenses?
14:16
Speaker 6: It makes it makes it pretty easy when you're when
14:18
Speaker 6: you've seen that play out before, you're like, oh, well,
14:21
Speaker 6: you know, they did a good job of letting.
14:23
Speaker 1: Us all believe it was an exhaustive search. Indeed.
14:26
Speaker 7: But so it looks like Leonard might be head of
14:27
Speaker 7: the Buffalo, and that might have been in the works already.
14:29
Speaker 7: Now the thing is that Jim Leonard based on how
14:31
Speaker 7: Jonathan Gannon doesn't I think Jonathan Gannon's going to be fine.
14:34
Speaker 1: I mean, just you know, my expectations already be fine.
14:36
Speaker 7: There were zero expectations with Halflee that was a home
14:39
Speaker 7: run hunter And so for people who are again it's
14:41
Speaker 7: like the Floor, it's like, well, the Floor's future hinges
14:44
Speaker 7: on the success of his selection as DC, does it
14:46
Speaker 7: really he just got an extension. The last guy you
14:49
Speaker 7: hired was Halflee, who people, well, that's the guy who
14:52
Speaker 7: gave up twenty five points in the fourth Okay, lost
14:56
Speaker 7: in a row. But he also most would say he's success.
15:00
Speaker 7: Like we said, he was like the second guy hired
15:02
Speaker 7: after the future Hall of Famer Harbaugh to get a
15:05
Speaker 7: job in this cycle of ten openings.
15:07
Speaker 1: So the Halfley hire was successful, right, the Halfley hire
15:11
Speaker 1: was successful. You're coming off of that.
15:12
Speaker 7: Now you're hiring Gannon, who has head coaching experience in
15:14
Speaker 7: the NFL and has been a coordinator taking a team
15:16
Speaker 7: to the Super Bowl. I think it's gonna be fine. Yeah, now,
15:19
Speaker 7: but the thing is we're gonna we're stuck, and it's
15:21
Speaker 7: gonna be this TJ. Watt feedback loop, this whole what if,
15:26
Speaker 7: Like you know, it's like, why didn't we get that guy?
15:28
Speaker 1: What we knew, Like, look at how much better we
15:30
Speaker 1: could have been a food Edge.
15:32
Speaker 7: IOWA wouldn't be having this discussion he's one of us, yep,
15:36
Speaker 7: and therefore we're having this. We have to have this discussion.
15:39
Speaker 7: It's gonna be baked into this season. People are gonna
15:41
Speaker 7: be comparing how Buffalo's defense is going against you know, well.
15:45
Speaker 1: And that's the thing.
15:45
Speaker 6: If he was if he was a three time All
15:48
Speaker 6: American correct and former walk on and an Iowa Waterloo,
15:52
Speaker 6: Iowa native, and he played for the Hawkeyes, nobody would
15:54
Speaker 6: care this much.
15:55
Speaker 1: But he's one of our own, and we protect our own.
15:58
Speaker 6: And there was the thought that it was fine lining
16:00
Speaker 6: up right, like it was gonna be so perfect that
16:02
Speaker 6: it was going to play out. But I think, to
16:05
Speaker 6: me drew the biggest conundrum in the whole thing, and
16:08
Speaker 6: and where a lot of this makes it a lot cleaner.
16:11
Speaker 6: I think a lot of these decisions were made before
16:13
Speaker 6: Denver played that football game on Sunday, where a lot
16:16
Speaker 6: of the contention with the timing of Gannon was why
16:20
Speaker 6: not just wait to hear from Leonard?
16:22
Speaker 1: I think they probably heard from Jack. That's the thing.
16:24
Speaker 7: It's all the stuff is back channeled, and there's agents
16:27
Speaker 7: and there's conversations and well, you know, yeah, well, Leonard's
16:30
Speaker 7: family still lives in Wisconsin, he's been working in Denver.
16:32
Speaker 7: He played in Buffalo. Maybe his wife likes Buffalo more
16:34
Speaker 7: than Denver.
16:35
Speaker 6: I played there twice, right, Like, got drafted to Buffalo,
16:38
Speaker 6: went back there as a free agent.
16:39
Speaker 1: And has and bonds with the fans there. Yeah, it's possible.
16:44
Speaker 1: Those people in the building, they're going to a new
16:45
Speaker 1: stadium like this, You're.
16:48
Speaker 6: Like, you're probably getting a decent a decent check. You're
16:50
Speaker 6: going in with a first time head coach. You're gonna
16:52
Speaker 6: have a very much blanket sheet. And this is the
16:56
Speaker 6: other part, and this might be the the competitiveness in
17:00
Speaker 6: everybody deal. I'm gonna get more respect m M. You're
17:05
Speaker 6: gonna get a lot of love and admiration wherever you win,
17:09
Speaker 6: whether it's Green Bay or Buffalo.
17:10
Speaker 1: But if you do it there, it hasn't been done
17:13
Speaker 1: yet right.
17:14
Speaker 6: Bay, in Green Bay, it has been If you're the
17:17
Speaker 6: DC of the team that finally gets Buffalo home in
17:19
Speaker 6: the first year of a brand new stadium, I mean
17:21
Speaker 6: you're telling that point.
17:22
Speaker 7: You sweat there and played several seasons. You have you
17:25
Speaker 7: know the area, you know the people, you know the
17:27
Speaker 7: people in the organization. A lot of the people are
17:29
Speaker 7: still there. The equipment guys all you know, the longtime guys.
17:31
Speaker 7: The comfort level there, And you're right. So the people
17:34
Speaker 7: squawking that somehow the packers were inept or incompetent by
17:38
Speaker 7: not interviewing Jim Leonard, like they kind of knew, like
17:41
Speaker 7: you said, this was preordaining. I think they knew that
17:44
Speaker 7: he was gonna probably get He was gonna get the
17:46
Speaker 7: Buffalo job no matter what. And now the flip side
17:49
Speaker 7: of this is what if and suddenly Vance Joseph's name
17:52
Speaker 7: disappeared from the cycle of like you know, candidates and stuff. Yeah, quickly,
17:56
Speaker 7: But had he moved on, would would Leonard have just
17:58
Speaker 7: moved up a chair there? And but he wants to
18:00
Speaker 7: be a coordinator, like when he moved up a chair
18:02
Speaker 7: and stayed with Sean Payton. Had they won the Super
18:04
Speaker 7: Bowl and Vance Joseph gets a job like you know, so,
18:08
Speaker 7: but but the idea that the packers somehow didn't check
18:11
Speaker 7: a box or that they were fooled by Gannon and
18:13
Speaker 7: his agent that he was gonna hit seven other Scott
18:16
Speaker 7: Boris thing I got. I got forty five teams bidding
18:18
Speaker 7: for this guy services more than there are teams. Yeah,
18:21
Speaker 7: but that's how many people are guys the idea that
18:24
Speaker 7: they got snookered or that they somehow were incompetent or
18:27
Speaker 7: got fooled.
18:28
Speaker 1: I'm not buying that. That's a great maccars a callback. Well,
18:31
Speaker 1: I think, oh yeah, that is, actually.
18:35
Speaker 5: That is.
18:35
Speaker 1: I also think that the point you made is true
18:37
Speaker 1: about the comparison. There would be.
18:39
Speaker 4: The comparison will be there if he does a good job.
18:42
Speaker 4: If he doesn't, it won't. I think that's the thing
18:44
Speaker 4: about how this works. If it's somebody that the public
18:47
Speaker 4: seems to like, a fan seem to like, or is
18:48
Speaker 4: a fan favorite, and he does well somewhere else, you'll
18:51
Speaker 4: hear about it, like TJ.
18:52
Speaker 1: Watt. But if TJ.
18:53
Speaker 4: Watt just became a guy, nobody would have never would
18:55
Speaker 4: have heard about it, never would have been like, hey,
18:57
Speaker 4: you were guys, were right, Like, no one's gonna say
18:59
Speaker 4: you guys were right. If Jim Leonard doesn't become a
19:01
Speaker 4: good coordinator or wherever he goes, if it is there.
19:03
Speaker 1: So that's just the way it is. That's why I
19:05
Speaker 1: don't hear about Doug.
19:06
Speaker 4: Gott Lead much from people anymore this year because youw
19:08
Speaker 4: go Green Bays playing well, it was all funn and
19:10
Speaker 4: games to jump on the guy we didn't like when
19:13
Speaker 4: he wasn't doing well, But when he does well, it's
19:15
Speaker 4: it's mum mum. Nobody comes back and says, okay, me
19:17
Speaker 4: a cup, I was wrong. There's no energy two ways.
19:20
Speaker 4: So that's where it's about it. I don't sage jokes
19:23
Speaker 4: yet this year, but there hasn't been many, you know,
19:26
Speaker 4: because he turned it around. It's having a good year.
19:27
Speaker 4: That's just the way people are about people they don't like.
19:29
Speaker 4: You know, they want to jump and you want to
19:31
Speaker 4: make fun of somebody you don't like. But on the
19:33
Speaker 4: flip side, if it's yeah, you should have got this guy,
19:36
Speaker 4: why didn't you get him?
19:37
Speaker 1: Well, they're only gonna say that if Leonard does a
19:38
Speaker 1: good job in his role. You know, if t J.
19:40
Speaker 1: Watt was Vince Bigel, sorry, Vince Biegel. If TJ. Watt
19:43
Speaker 1: was Vince Bagel, we never heard about why didn't you
19:45
Speaker 1: drive TJ. Watt?
19:46
Speaker 4: It's why didn't you see the future? Why didn't you
19:48
Speaker 4: see the future and know what was going to be
19:50
Speaker 4: good and that what was gonna be bad?
19:51
Speaker 6: Come on, yeah, and I think this is I don't
19:54
Speaker 6: know that. It's ultimately a very hot take Drew, but
19:57
Speaker 6: I think that the hotter one and the higher that
20:00
Speaker 6: will be more damning or and I'm still holding out
20:04
Speaker 6: this part of the window that you might be able
20:06
Speaker 6: to crank it open.
20:07
Speaker 1: Significant in them.
20:08
Speaker 6: Getting home is the Special Team's assistant head coach Rich Pisaci.
20:12
Speaker 6: There you go, that's the one I think that's gonna stick. Uh,
20:16
Speaker 6: probably negatively until the floor more than whatever Jonathan Gannet
20:20
Speaker 6: ultimately does.
20:20
Speaker 1: Now no doubt.
20:21
Speaker 7: Now as far as Green Bay, what if they they're
20:25
Speaker 7: winning right now, they're seven to four in the league,
20:27
Speaker 7: twelve and ten overall, they played some tough games early,
20:30
Speaker 7: battle tested.
20:31
Speaker 1: Right, what if they do well this year and got
20:33
Speaker 1: goes back to doing the daily radio.
20:37
Speaker 7: Price of poker just went up, that would be pretty
20:40
Speaker 7: good because is there improvement in any way tied to
20:44
Speaker 7: the fact that he gave up, stepped away from people, And.
20:47
Speaker 4: That's that's the flip side, the flip side for people.
20:49
Speaker 4: I don't know that it's that easy that they were
20:52
Speaker 4: up mid season. Did he mid season or did he
20:55
Speaker 4: do it before.
20:55
Speaker 1: The year that he was going this year earlier? During
20:58
Speaker 1: the year, right it was isn't it more likely that
21:01
Speaker 1: it is? Actually, Oh, it's the second year of the program.
21:03
Speaker 1: And that's how things usually go.
21:04
Speaker 4: When you take over the first year, you your guys in,
21:06
Speaker 4: you start calling, you know, coaching your team, like give
21:08
Speaker 4: me a break.
21:09
Speaker 6: More likely Doug Gottlieb goes back to FSR or he
21:12
Speaker 6: goes to a bigger program at the end of the year.
21:16
Speaker 1: That's a good one. I still wonder if there's gonna
21:19
Speaker 1: he's gonna have offer. It would be eventually.
21:21
Speaker 4: Green Bay always is unfortunately, if you are having any
21:25
Speaker 4: tough sort of offer.
21:26
Speaker 1: But I don't know that he's gonna have those Yeah,
21:28
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying.
21:29
Speaker 6: I don't know that anybody's gonna really give those offers
21:31
Speaker 6: unless all of a sudden, you know, we're talking about
21:33
Speaker 6: green Bay on the second weekend of the season or
21:35
Speaker 6: at the tournament when we're hanging out a Potawatami.
21:37
Speaker 7: Sportsbook and we're coming up on the one year of
21:38
Speaker 7: anniversaries when we were in New Orleans and talking to
21:41
Speaker 7: Doug Gottlieb on the air man.
21:42
Speaker 6: Right, yeah, yeah, half almost a one year ago when
21:47
Speaker 6: Josh Shakos told us they needed a number of wide
21:50
Speaker 6: receivers here.
21:50
Speaker 4: It's gonna it's gonna hit hard when those memories come
21:53
Speaker 4: up with my snapchat. All right, guys, really quick, I'm
21:55
Speaker 4: taking dobblers hot. Take to stop with the useless period
21:58
Speaker 4: cord of intros and get right to the sports tayo
22:01
Speaker 4: six minutes.
22:01
Speaker 1: Of born person. Dobbler, look at me, look at me
22:04
Speaker 1: right in my eyes right now, all right, and you're
22:06
Speaker 1: covered up there. It's like dobling me right in my
22:08
Speaker 1: eyes right now. I will never you will never come
22:12
Speaker 1: at my open. Okay. That is my baby. That is
22:14
Speaker 1: my creative outlet.
22:15
Speaker 4: That is my baby. And you're gonna hear this open,
22:18
Speaker 4: all right. And it's not six minutes, it's ninety seconds, all.
22:20
Speaker 1: Right, but you're gonna hear this open. Dobbler, you got
22:23
Speaker 1: a problem I open.
22:24
Speaker 4: You come right to me, and you know what, if
22:25
Speaker 4: you don't want to hear it, you're gonna have to
22:27
Speaker 4: hear it another minute longer. I want to go at
22:29
Speaker 4: ten minute open just for you when they got hurt.
22:31
Speaker 4: Don't come at my open like that, all right? That's
22:33
Speaker 4: my baby, all right?
22:35
Speaker 1: Whatever? What a course correction there.
22:37
Speaker 6: Drew Armand was always the one that was trying to
22:39
Speaker 6: tell people ninety seconds was actually six minutes.
22:43
Speaker 1: Good one that is good.
22:44
Speaker 7: Where's my When we come back, we're gonna catch up
22:47
Speaker 7: with our pal l Helfe, President of Milwaukee Admirals John
22:50
Speaker 7: Greenberg joins the party. Admirals triumphant last night as armand
22:54
Speaker 7: was entertaining the masses on the scoreboard.
22:56
Speaker 6: Hot take, that's the reason, right take, that's the reason
22:59
Speaker 6: why there getting out.
23:00
Speaker 4: Well, let me tell you that second period was a
23:02
Speaker 4: full hour. Okay, that was a long period. I was
23:04
Speaker 4: I was in it for the whole way.
23:06
Speaker 7: Bab I gonna loose gloves last night at the old Barn.
23:08
Speaker 7: We're gonna talk to Greene. NeXT's hotte Humpte. Get him
23:11
Speaker 7: to his eight seven seven seven nine four three. It's
23:14
Speaker 7: the huddle on Fox Sports Radio Wiscon. He does this,
23:17
Speaker 7: sack LaRue dips it in and then punches start flying.
23:25
Speaker 1: Sack LaRue will score.
23:29
Speaker 4: He tosses his helmet at the Rockford Benson and bite
23:32
Speaker 4: them all on the ice.
23:34
Speaker 1: His night comes to an end, but he may have
23:37
Speaker 1: just scored the game winner. With two thirteen to go
23:40
Speaker 1: in the third period, Puccini's.
23:43
Speaker 6: Mister to the net, LaRue got his back hand, deflecting
23:46
Speaker 6: it over Foreshnoix.
23:50
Speaker 7: Nighting night of hockey at the Old Barn Panther Arena
23:52
Speaker 7: last night Admiral's prevailing over Rockford. We're on the huddle
23:56
Speaker 7: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
23:58
Speaker 1: Good morning again and we say good morning.
24:01
Speaker 7: To our halfway John Greenberg, President of Milwaukee meals Greeny,
24:04
Speaker 7: welcome to the show.
24:05
Speaker 5: Good morning, good good morning. And just they just got
24:10
Speaker 5: home from the rink after that, No, just kidding.
24:12
Speaker 1: Out, Well, did ice sang in on the dumbest game
24:16
Speaker 1: of all time?
24:18
Speaker 6: Well, you didn't think that you'd need any a cold
24:20
Speaker 6: tub after the game that you guys had on Friday,
24:24
Speaker 6: But with the fisticuffs fly in last night, I think
24:26
Speaker 6: everybody might have needed a little bit of ice after
24:28
Speaker 6: that one.
24:30
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It was a crazy night. Uh twenty
24:33
Speaker 5: two penalties just in the second period, and uh it
24:36
Speaker 5: really didn't slow down a whole lot the third period.
24:38
Speaker 5: But the most important thing was that at the end
24:41
Speaker 5: of the game we got two points and they got
24:43
Speaker 5: nothing at all. It was it was a good night.
24:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, Greeny.
24:48
Speaker 4: That's what manners Admimals get to win and off an
24:51
Speaker 4: incredible weekend obviously with all that happened, but carrying over
24:54
Speaker 4: to the Tuesday night, victory, but man, our boys were
24:57
Speaker 4: really working during that second intermission on figure the math
25:00
Speaker 4: out of all these penalty minutes, who got what penalty
25:02
Speaker 4: at what time? And uh, you know, it was funny
25:05
Speaker 4: because the first period started, I don't want to say genteel.
25:09
Speaker 4: There were a few goals, but there really wasn't much
25:11
Speaker 4: scrapping at all, and then all of a sudden in
25:13
Speaker 4: the second period was like fight night at the arena,
25:16
Speaker 4: and man, the crowd got their moneys were in that
25:18
Speaker 4: full hour second period.
25:21
Speaker 5: It was. It was really something that is a little
25:24
Speaker 5: bit of the Rockford m O this year. You know,
25:27
Speaker 5: last year, we uh we kind of had to control
25:31
Speaker 5: of the division and uh, you know, part of it
25:33
Speaker 5: was because we played a kind of a bigger, heavier game,
25:36
Speaker 5: and so they decided this off season that they were
25:39
Speaker 5: going to try and counteract it by bringing in some
25:41
Speaker 5: guys that uh that did that, and uh, you know,
25:45
Speaker 5: we we're certainly not gonna work. We're certainly not gonna
25:50
Speaker 5: you know, back down from anybody, that's for sure, and
25:53
Speaker 5: our guys stood up for each other, and uh, you know,
25:56
Speaker 5: it was just one of those nights, but atypical for sure.
26:00
Speaker 5: I mean, people shouldn't come to the game to see
26:04
Speaker 5: that happened the way it did last night. You know,
26:07
Speaker 5: we're glad that we got through it, and hopefully, hopefully
26:11
Speaker 5: we'll get back to a two and a half hour
26:12
Speaker 5: game starting what we get home next week.
26:15
Speaker 1: I give me Billy saying, speak for yourself. You might
26:17
Speaker 1: just get lucky, and you might just get lucky, and
26:21
Speaker 1: that'll break out.
26:22
Speaker 6: But you mentioned it's standing up and you're not gonna
26:24
Speaker 6: let anybody, and the boys aren't gonna let anybody do
26:27
Speaker 6: their teammate that way. It's difficult, John, right, in the
26:31
Speaker 6: transient nature of the league. You got guys going up
26:34
Speaker 6: and down and everybody while knowing that wins let everyoney right.
26:39
Speaker 6: Wins are the easiest ways for everyone to get elevated.
26:42
Speaker 6: You win games and win titles, you'll get better opportunities.
26:46
Speaker 6: But it's difficult to be able to bond that brotherhood.
26:48
Speaker 6: I got to assume when everybody does have to in
26:51
Speaker 6: some point be looking out for their own success. It
26:54
Speaker 6: really is a testament to coach Taylor and the staff
26:58
Speaker 6: to be able to drive home that kind of family
27:01
Speaker 6: atmosphere you have to.
27:02
Speaker 5: Have in this game one hundred percent and uh you know,
27:06
Speaker 5: I give a lot of credit to our leadership group too.
27:08
Speaker 5: You know, of our our captains, our veteran guys, uh,
27:11
Speaker 5: you know, some of our young guys probably are not
27:13
Speaker 5: used to games like that. So for you know, our
27:17
Speaker 5: guys to to show that kind of leadership and and
27:19
Speaker 5: you know, be talking on the bench and you know,
27:22
Speaker 5: making sure that the focus is still there, because sometimes
27:24
Speaker 5: those games can get a little out of control just
27:27
Speaker 5: from your your brain and not being you know, not
27:30
Speaker 5: playing hockey. And at the end of the day, that's
27:33
Speaker 5: what's going to carry the day, and that's how you're
27:35
Speaker 5: going to move forward and again get two big points.
27:40
Speaker 1: Talking to John.
27:40
Speaker 7: Greenberg, president of Milwaukee Admirals, we call him l hafe
27:43
Speaker 7: here on the huddle. Is there a special postgame ceremony
27:46
Speaker 7: when a guy gets a Gordy Hawe hat trick and
27:49
Speaker 7: when he does it when he gets two of the
27:51
Speaker 7: three legs on the same play, is it a special
27:54
Speaker 7: even more special ceremony.
27:59
Speaker 1: Rude an assist and getting in a scrap.
28:02
Speaker 5: And yeah, yeah, absolutely, yeah. Well zak is Zak is
28:07
Speaker 5: really good at that. I mean, that's something that he's
28:09
Speaker 5: been known for for his entire junior career, professional career,
28:14
Speaker 5: and uh you know, he he was really uh had
28:18
Speaker 5: enough of all the chatter and every all the nonsense
28:22
Speaker 5: that Rockford was thrown out there last night. So kudos
28:25
Speaker 5: to him for uh you know, taking matters into his
28:29
Speaker 5: own hands. Per se. You score the goals and stand
28:33
Speaker 5: up for yourself at the same time.
28:35
Speaker 6: It is a It is a fun one when you're
28:36
Speaker 6: able to get the boys riled up while also being
28:40
Speaker 6: able to put one into the back of the net.
28:42
Speaker 6: The crowd is always going to be excited when when
28:44
Speaker 6: goals are being scored, but also for a Frosty four
28:47
Speaker 6: right now as much as the scraps will ignite the crowd,
28:51
Speaker 6: and a go ahead goal makes it even better. What
28:54
Speaker 6: was the pop light for the fourth goal of Greene
28:55
Speaker 6: because that's always my favorite. Once we all know that
28:57
Speaker 6: we're getting a little bit of a taste of a
28:59
Speaker 6: chocolate frost Yeah, we got.
29:04
Speaker 5: Once we got to the third goal and that was
29:06
Speaker 5: three to three, we was like, well, we want the
29:08
Speaker 5: next one because that not only puts us in the lead,
29:10
Speaker 5: but it also gets the Frosty's And you can hear
29:13
Speaker 5: people in the crowd starting the uh, we want Frosty's chant,
29:17
Speaker 5: so everybody knows what's going on when we get to three,
29:21
Speaker 5: and our guys are more than happy to oblige getting
29:26
Speaker 5: our fans a special treat. And you know it was.
29:31
Speaker 5: It was quite a night, that's for sure.
29:32
Speaker 1: I know your stun, Drew. That's usually the chance that
29:34
Speaker 1: I start. It's all about the usually the chance that
29:37
Speaker 1: I'm starting wounds.
29:39
Speaker 7: Well, as long as we're talking about Frosty and quite
29:41
Speaker 7: a night, let's talk Hastings, Minnesota.
29:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, now, now this is here.
29:46
Speaker 7: You just had a game like last night where it's
29:48
Speaker 7: basically a slap shot night at the Old Barn, and
29:51
Speaker 7: now you're facing Iowa this weekend, and you took their
29:53
Speaker 7: lunch money in Hastings and then in Milwaukee last weekend,
29:56
Speaker 7: so we might have some carryover.
29:57
Speaker 1: But what was the experience like any of you guys
29:59
Speaker 1: were looking forward to it?
30:00
Speaker 7: It was one of the unique, unique moments on your
30:04
Speaker 7: your schedule this year. What was it like freezing your
30:06
Speaker 7: nuggets off in Hastings, Minnesota part of the celebration.
30:10
Speaker 5: Yeah, that that's a that's a fair assessment of what happened.
30:13
Speaker 5: Uh So, Yeah, I would say that that was by
30:16
Speaker 5: one of the top five memorable things in my career
30:20
Speaker 5: to go through. And Aaron Simms has deserved every accolade
30:25
Speaker 5: that has come his way since we had that game,
30:28
Speaker 5: because he was broadcasting it essentially outside in minus eighth
30:34
Speaker 5: degree temperature that was only getting colder through the night,
30:37
Speaker 5: and you know, my job there was essentially to be
30:40
Speaker 5: his co producer along with Matt Menzel, while we were
30:44
Speaker 5: trying to just warm up the the propane heaters that
30:48
Speaker 5: they gave us, which kept freezing. And I I think
30:51
Speaker 5: I tried to warm up propane more that night than
30:54
Speaker 5: I ever did my entire life. It ever will again eventually,
30:58
Speaker 5: eventually it wouldn't work it all. So it just got
31:02
Speaker 5: colder and Aaron kept Aaron kept going. I don't know
31:06
Speaker 5: how his mouth works, I really don't, but you know,
31:10
Speaker 5: it was a really it was neat. And I will
31:12
Speaker 5: say that the amount of Admirals fans who made that
31:15
Speaker 5: try drive over there was really amazing to me. I mean,
31:19
Speaker 5: there were several hundred people who made the journey to Minnesota,
31:24
Speaker 5: and you know they listened to what we told them.
31:27
Speaker 5: You dress warm, you use the heated tents that were
31:30
Speaker 5: there for you. You know, we had obstacles that we
31:33
Speaker 5: had to put put up with when the power on
31:36
Speaker 5: the press row went out and Eron had to immediately
31:39
Speaker 5: shift to his cell phone to try and broadcast the game.
31:41
Speaker 5: Then the power would come back and then switched back
31:43
Speaker 5: over to the regular way that it would go back
31:46
Speaker 5: out again. So, you know, I all of a sudden
31:49
Speaker 5: at the tie game midway through the third period and
31:51
Speaker 5: I just kind of leaned over and I said, you know,
31:53
Speaker 5: this has got seventeen round shootout written all over.
32:00
Speaker 1: Yeah.
32:01
Speaker 5: Yeah, he was cursed me for that one, but fortunately
32:06
Speaker 5: we got it done it overtime. But I was standing
32:08
Speaker 5: right next to somebody for the Minnesota Wild and Mike
32:11
Speaker 5: counter Park from Iowa, and we scored that goal and
32:13
Speaker 5: I kind of gave a giant fist pump and stuff,
32:16
Speaker 5: and all of a sudden they turned around and I said,
32:18
Speaker 5: it's over. So it wasn't trying to put in their
32:22
Speaker 5: faces were because it was done.
32:24
Speaker 4: It's just something it's really special. You guys did a
32:27
Speaker 4: great job battling through all that. Obviously the effort the
32:30
Speaker 4: entire organization had, but you know, it just it's that o'
32:33
Speaker 4: murphy's law thing.
32:34
Speaker 1: It happened to be the coldest end of the year.
32:36
Speaker 4: But in some ways, looking back, it's always going to
32:38
Speaker 4: make a little more special, uh that you're able to
32:41
Speaker 4: be part of history, Greenie, So you should be committed,
32:43
Speaker 4: the entire organization should be on an amazing night and
32:46
Speaker 4: uh hey it was. It's like all I could think
32:49
Speaker 4: about was you old Larry birdline. Okay, well we're here,
32:51
Speaker 4: we might as well win it. And that's what the admirals.
32:55
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's exactly what I said too. I was like, well,
32:58
Speaker 5: we're gonna go, We're gonna play, and we might as
33:00
Speaker 5: well win. And so, you know, it was really a
33:03
Speaker 5: great effort by our guys, and you know, a lot
33:06
Speaker 5: of a lot of unique obstacles. And I will tell you,
33:09
Speaker 5: like the photography and the video and all the social
33:13
Speaker 5: stuff that our team did over the few days that
33:17
Speaker 5: we were there, the engagement that we've had for that
33:20
Speaker 5: that event is going to have a long shelf life
33:23
Speaker 5: for us. And if you're ever curious what it was
33:26
Speaker 5: like to go through it, I encourage you to go
33:28
Speaker 5: check out our Facebook or Instagram or Twitter everything else.
33:32
Speaker 5: And it was it was certainly memorable.
33:35
Speaker 1: Experience, fantastic.
33:36
Speaker 7: I gotta say, I you know, I've been around pro
33:39
Speaker 7: athletes much of my adult life, and I admire them
33:42
Speaker 7: and respect them, and especially for overcoming adversity and persevering.
33:47
Speaker 7: Because if I was between the pipes and that one
33:49
Speaker 7: to let one through just so we could get out
33:51
Speaker 7: of there and go warm up that minute. I'm sorry,
33:55
Speaker 7: I mean, I love you, guys, but I'm letting one in.
