- 0:33Speaker 1: And then in college it was like, what can we
- 0:35Speaker 1: put into the waffle maker? Dude?
- 0:38Speaker 2: And that would that would teach you a lot of
- 0:39Speaker 2: fun things.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Dude.
- 0:40Speaker 2: I'm telling you. When you throw brownies into the waffle
- 0:43Speaker 2: maker for the first time and you realize that you
- 0:45Speaker 2: can throw ice cream on that in three minutes instead
- 0:48Speaker 2: of thirteen minutes, forty minutes, totally difference.
- 0:51Speaker 1: Ye hit us up eight seven seven seven nine nicolay
- 0:54Speaker 1: lo dot com talk and text. I'm gonna get into
- 0:56Speaker 1: some bias cell propositions, but first need our current electrics.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Superhero the day it's too early to annoy Cooper Pratt,
- 1:03Speaker 1: but it is Cooper Pratt Dave Milwaukee. Because the prospect,
- 1:05Speaker 1: the shortstop prospect, is going to make his debut. We
- 1:10Speaker 1: think tonight they didn't call him up to sit. I
- 1:12Speaker 1: think he'll be in the lineup. It's a safe bet
- 1:14Speaker 1: that Murph hasn't penciled in at short What they do
- 1:16Speaker 1: beyond that the roster move, we don't know. Smart money's
- 1:20Speaker 1: on Renhifo. Maybe see you later.
- 1:22Speaker 2: But most importantly, stay tuned to the baseball pregame show
- 1:24Speaker 2: that Hunter bombguard fires up at five point thirty. They
- 1:27Speaker 2: get all the lowdown for it. Can you guys help
- 1:29Speaker 2: me out with the vote here today on our Superhero
- 1:31Speaker 2: of the day Because I thought it was a pretty
- 1:34Speaker 2: sweet deal. I thought it was a pretty exciting moment
- 1:36Speaker 2: when I heard that Venus and Serena Williams were going
- 1:39Speaker 2: to play at Wimbledon and they were going to double
- 1:42Speaker 2: up one more time. Cool and play and play again. Yeah,
- 1:47Speaker 2: this the Williams sisters. Drew Tennis is found Daughters. They
- 1:52Speaker 2: made a damn movie about it. It did, and will
- 1:55Speaker 2: Smith made a hundred million dollars. He did make it,
- 1:57Speaker 2: And apparently tennis guy is not excited for those for
- 2:02Speaker 2: the Williams sisters to be playing at Wimbledon, because I say, Arman,
- 2:05Speaker 2: how cool is this?
- 2:06Speaker 1: He goes, I mean they're playing doubles.
- 2:10Speaker 3: I mean, I think this is not Jordan coming back
- 2:12Speaker 3: to from the Wizard, Like, this isn't that type of thing.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Well, hopefully they're better than Jordan on the Widow.
- 2:17Speaker 3: I'm just actually, okay, that's a totally different Let's do
- 2:20Speaker 3: so that different day, because Jordan's numbers weren't that bad
- 2:23Speaker 3: at first, all right, but let's do that different day.
- 2:24Speaker 3: But my point is it's cool that they're gonna come
- 2:27Speaker 3: back and play doubles, but it's not the same as
- 2:29Speaker 3: like competing for singles titles in the tournament.
- 2:32Speaker 1: Competing for a doubles championship.
- 2:34Speaker 3: It's like that's like the senior Tour almost in some
- 2:36Speaker 3: ways it's not, but it's like, come on, it's like
- 2:39Speaker 3: one step away from when Pete Sampers and and Andre
- 2:43Speaker 3: were like miked up playing tennis and like senior events
- 2:46Speaker 3: and stuff like that.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Well, Andrea Agacy on the pickleball court is an electric factory.
- 2:51Speaker 2: If you haven't been watching that, you're missing out. Because
- 2:53Speaker 2: he has been kind of fun, he's I thought this
- 2:55Speaker 2: was gonna be a great moment. I thought this was
- 2:57Speaker 2: gonna be fun. It was exciting, It will be something
- 2:59Speaker 2: for tennis people to sell because their boys are all
- 3:02Speaker 2: out right center. Is Sinner gonna play in this one?
- 3:05Speaker 2: Or is he gonna get hot again?
- 3:06Speaker 1: Well? I don't I don't know, sorry, is he gonna?
- 3:08Speaker 1: Is he gonna? Is he gonna cramp up again?
- 3:10Speaker 2: Which is maybe when I have usd on him over
- 3:12Speaker 2: at the Potatomy sports book.
- 3:14Speaker 3: You and me both, brother, don't you think when al
- 3:16Speaker 3: Karez dropped out of the French I was all over
- 3:18Speaker 3: that future like white on rice. But it didn't happen
- 3:21Speaker 3: all right, all right, like like a like a I
- 3:25Speaker 3: don't know, all right, like I set up.
- 3:27Speaker 1: My moss enough.
- 3:29Speaker 3: But listen, hey, good for certain and Venus. They're gonna
- 3:31Speaker 3: play doubles. I don't think anyone.
- 3:33Speaker 1: Nobody cares.
- 3:34Speaker 3: Unfortunately, you know this hurts me because I played doubles
- 3:36Speaker 3: in high school and nobody cared about doubles.
- 3:38Speaker 1: They care about singles.
- 3:40Speaker 3: Doubles is a different game and it's a creative game
- 3:42Speaker 3: and I played it, but no one cared. So listen,
- 3:45Speaker 3: if people care about singles. So that's what it is.
- 3:48Speaker 3: But I don't think anybody can be watching this doubles.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Turn so Drew, I don't know. Can we name this
- 3:52Speaker 2: the We gotta give it to Garth Brooks. I thought
- 3:57Speaker 2: it was a great and I thought it was so let's.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Not let Ourna be the wet blanket here. I am
- 4:01Speaker 1: that guy. I guess.
- 4:03Speaker 3: Hey, listen, and Jordan wasn't that bad the Wizards. Look
- 4:06Speaker 3: at some of the numbers he was giving.
- 4:08Speaker 2: Okay, don't give me, don't give me the Barkley one here. Yes,
- 4:11Speaker 2: Barkley's numbers with the Rockets were not bad. They're very,
- 4:15Speaker 2: very good for average NBA players, But when you're a
- 4:17Speaker 2: top thirty player of all time, they're not great.
- 4:20Speaker 3: They're not great. Well, it's like we're impressed with Lebron
- 4:22Speaker 3: what he's doing now. It's a little bit similar to
- 4:25Speaker 3: what Joy like Lebron's note, but he's still filling it up.
- 4:28Speaker 1: Wait a minute, don't do this, don't do this. Don't
- 4:30Speaker 1: compare those Wait a minute, yeah, come on, don't compare
- 4:32Speaker 1: those numbers. That's not gonna look good. It's not gonna
- 4:35Speaker 1: look good.
- 4:35Speaker 2: No, Well, okay, I'm not I'm just Lebron's numbers right now,
- 4:40Speaker 2: are are I think kind of dwarfing what what MJ
- 4:43Speaker 2: did with the are.
- 4:43Speaker 1: They are they?
- 4:44Speaker 3: I mean, I don't want to just go off counting
- 4:46Speaker 3: stats here, but I mean, all right, he did give
- 4:49Speaker 3: him a He did give twenty two points a game,
- 4:52Speaker 3: all right, Billy twenty two and five. I'm just saying
- 4:54Speaker 3: it's it's there. It's not bad, no playing with Yeah,
- 4:59Speaker 3: he was, he was playing. I heard those guys. Yeah,
- 5:01Speaker 3: I saw.
- 5:04Speaker 1: The why that you pick up buff the y at
- 5:07Speaker 1: the noon run.
- 5:08Speaker 3: There were there was like some podcasts where some of
- 5:11Speaker 3: the guys will I give they didn't like Leela Jordan
- 5:13Speaker 3: because he's done on their growth.
- 5:14Speaker 1: It was a Kawama Brown obviously, Oh, Hubert.
- 5:17Speaker 3: Davis, Rip Hamilton was Brown, pop Eye Jones, Brennan Haywood,
- 5:21Speaker 3: Christian Latner, let's go what Bobby Simmons.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Bobby Simmons in that one.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Let's also by both.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Can I just say I'm impressed by all of it?
- 5:33Speaker 2: Well, yeah, be impressed by it.
- 5:34Speaker 1: Yeah, it was.
- 5:35Speaker 2: It was a glowing moment. It was an awesome, awesome time.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Jack Ike also is one of our favorites. Wisconsin into Florida.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Daily tweets about Wisconsin and Florida sports history Fellas on
- 5:47Speaker 2: this beautiful buyer cell Tuesday. Are you ready for history
- 5:51Speaker 2: to repeat itself? Fifty check my math? Fifty one years
- 5:56Speaker 2: to the day. Fifty one years.
- 5:59Speaker 1: We're talking about.
- 6:00Speaker 2: June sixteen, nineteen seventy five. Okay, the Jabbar era ends
- 6:06Speaker 2: in Milwaukee. The Bucks officially traded Kareem Abdul Jabbar to
- 6:10Speaker 2: the Lakers for Brian Winters, Junior Bridgeman, David Myers, and
- 6:13Speaker 2: Elmosemelmorison this day, fifty one years ago. Now I believe
- 6:18Speaker 2: it's I believe we're still a week away, because this
- 6:21Speaker 2: is this is in the time where and and I
- 6:23Speaker 2: know this is difficult for Maybe there is. Maybe maybe
- 6:26Speaker 2: John Horst is working in a secret bunker, like Jim
- 6:29Speaker 2: Osarski said. I saw him on a Celtics podcast yesterday.
- 6:32Speaker 2: He was talking about the secret bunker, the secret layer
- 6:35Speaker 2: they had when they were doing the Dame trade. Drew nobody.
- 6:38Speaker 2: People on the staff didn't even know that they were
- 6:39Speaker 2: working on that one. Maybe that spot the Aaron Fox,
- 6:44Speaker 2: John mart Let's go maybe DeAndre Ayton, right, maybe you
- 6:49Speaker 2: maybe you swap him out. Myles Turner, save a little
- 6:51Speaker 2: bit of money, and then maybe somebody that can actually
- 6:53Speaker 2: offensively score the basketball every once in a while, put
- 6:56Speaker 2: the ball into the hoop, maybe grab rebounds for a
- 6:59Speaker 2: seven footer. That that would all be nice. That would
- 7:02Speaker 2: all be nice, and not you know, letting family business
- 7:05Speaker 2: out as well would also be a good one. Maybe
- 7:08Speaker 2: that's what they're working on. But I think in the
- 7:10Speaker 2: next week, the Bucks are once again waiting for somebody
- 7:13Speaker 2: to anti up and improve their offer that have been
- 7:15Speaker 2: on the table for a while now. Miami's offer basically
- 7:17Speaker 2: seems like it's been the same for Giannis for the
- 7:20Speaker 2: last seven months. They haven't budged. The Bucks could have
- 7:22Speaker 2: accepted it, they haven't for a reason. They're waiting for
- 7:25Speaker 2: somebody to beat it. And maybe that is the Boston
- 7:28Speaker 2: Celtics helping out with a couple of movers and shakers
- 7:30Speaker 2: to improve that.
- 7:31Speaker 3: I think part of the key is this, if Yannis
- 7:34Speaker 3: tells everybody, I want to go to this team, all right, okay,
- 7:37Speaker 3: then we just took away leveraging power for them, so
- 7:40Speaker 3: like you have to sweeten the pot like then to
- 7:42Speaker 3: make us give you this guy, because he basically said
- 7:44Speaker 3: he wants to go with you.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Therefore, you are now negotiating against yourself Miami, so you
- 7:49Speaker 1: have to do it.
- 7:50Speaker 3: So, I mean, John and all those guys have to
- 7:52Speaker 3: look pat Riley in the eye and say, okay, come on,
- 7:54Speaker 3: come to our side.
- 7:55Speaker 1: Well are you okay? So that's our So we've wrapped
- 7:58Speaker 1: up Current Electric.
- 7:59Speaker 2: Yes, sorry cal Kurr dot com Superhero today, Venus and
- 8:02Speaker 2: Serna will when it comes.
- 8:03Speaker 1: To buying or selling. It would be the rumors you
- 8:05Speaker 1: see now that are starting to spin into like the
- 8:07Speaker 1: Bucks could get John Morant independent of Yanna still sending
- 8:11Speaker 1: Yanis and having John Morant come back that's part of
- 8:14Speaker 1: the hall instead of Tyler Hero in his thirty three
- 8:16Speaker 1: million dollar contract.
- 8:18Speaker 2: There's gotta be different ways that you can get other
- 8:20Speaker 2: people because so again the Bucks are very much not
- 8:23Speaker 2: it didn't seem interested in keeping Hero if that would
- 8:25Speaker 2: be the case.
- 8:25Speaker 1: The rumor yesterday was Yiannis and Bobby to Miami and
- 8:29Speaker 1: the Bucks getting John Morant from Memphis along with Khalel
- 8:32Speaker 1: Ware Aimia Kez, which would make my boy Johnny Vegas happy.
- 8:35Speaker 1: He's yeah, Pella Larson from Miami and then the thirteenth
- 8:39Speaker 1: pick as well as first round picks in thirty one
- 8:42Speaker 1: and thirty three, and then Memphis would get Tyler Hero
- 8:46Speaker 1: and u Jovik.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Those late those late picks are interesting to me, Like
- 8:51Speaker 2: a thirty one and thirty three Miami pick, Yeah, very much,
- 8:54Speaker 2: could be could be very very fruitful for you because
- 8:58Speaker 2: Yannis at that point would be very much on the
- 9:00Speaker 2: back end.
- 9:00Speaker 1: You would anticipate and Bam would too.
- 9:03Speaker 2: So maybe they're they're lottery picks and you can strike
- 9:05Speaker 2: gold with the new lottery system. I just I struggle
- 9:09Speaker 2: to see this group punting for four or five years
- 9:13Speaker 2: down the line, like the way that they're structured right now,
- 9:16Speaker 2: with the assets they don't necessarily have, it's gonna be
- 9:20Speaker 2: difficult to be You're not making a ton of decisions
- 9:23Speaker 2: off this all the time, but you're making some. It's
- 9:25Speaker 2: gonna be hard to sell tickets for the next four
- 9:26Speaker 2: years of like, well, wait till twenty thirty three, when
- 9:29Speaker 2: we have two first round picks and maybe two lottery
- 9:31Speaker 2: You have.
- 9:32Speaker 1: To kind of jog your memory though that John Morant
- 9:34Speaker 1: was like an MVP candidate, really really dyna and no
- 9:38Speaker 1: playing for Taylor Jenkins, who is now the Bucks coach.
- 9:41Speaker 1: So he had his troubles off the court. It was
- 9:42Speaker 1: he burst on the scene. It was this. Yeah, it
- 9:45Speaker 1: was like an MVP candidate for a while for a
- 9:47Speaker 1: quick minute, and then he had some problems. But you know,
- 9:49Speaker 1: coming to Milwaukee, if you want to just focus on
- 9:51Speaker 1: basketball the way they do in Green Bay with football
- 9:53Speaker 1: and good, you gotta do so. You got a you know,
- 9:55Speaker 1: a familiar coach who's helped nurture you, who that you know,
- 9:59Speaker 1: the idea that that John Horsse could somehow like We're
- 10:02Speaker 1: gonna trade for John Moran and keep you honest happy,
- 10:04Speaker 1: keep him here with a point guard, and they keep
- 10:06Speaker 1: him here with you know, I'm not ruling that out yet,
- 10:10Speaker 1: but I don't think that this the logic is flawed.
- 10:13Speaker 1: If you're trying to get let's put it this way,
- 10:15Speaker 1: would you rather have joh Moran or Tyler Hero. He
- 10:17Speaker 1: may be from wittneaw Billy, but I much rather still
- 10:20Speaker 1: have John Morana's basketball player. No, that's true. And the
- 10:23Speaker 1: tough thing for me is.
- 10:24Speaker 2: As I've watched a bunch of these and it feels
- 10:26Speaker 2: like the conversation is more legitimate than not. I struggle
- 10:31Speaker 2: with all of these packages to not want Jalen Brown, right, Like,
- 10:34Speaker 2: I get he's twenty seven, and I get that, you know,
- 10:37Speaker 2: you'd be replacing Giannis with I don't know, a guy
- 10:41Speaker 2: that was in the top three and MVP balloting year ago.
- 10:43Speaker 2: He's the best player, the best player that you'd be
- 10:46Speaker 2: getting on here. He's a former third overall pick. You'd
- 10:48Speaker 2: have to pay him three hundred million bucks, right with
- 10:50Speaker 2: the extension that's rolling in here. I know that that's
- 10:52Speaker 2: not exactly what a lot of people are thinking, but
- 10:54Speaker 2: nobody else is making any money on.
- 10:55Speaker 1: The team, right he won files VP, And so like,
- 10:58Speaker 1: there's there's things to it that I struggle with.
- 11:00Speaker 2: I know where they're at with their roster building and
- 11:04Speaker 2: with their roster construction. Unless you're getting all of your
- 11:07Speaker 2: picks back and then some and you know, maybe it's
- 11:11Speaker 2: Scoot Henderson and a couple of players from Portland who's
- 11:14Speaker 2: a former top three pick, and you can try to
- 11:16Speaker 2: get your Shay Gilgess Alexander. I don't know that it
- 11:19Speaker 2: always is the right move to just say, oh, we're
- 11:22Speaker 2: going to Oklahoma City and we're gonna draft all these
- 11:24Speaker 2: great players after seven, eight nine in the draft, and
- 11:28Speaker 2: we're gonna hit lottery tickets and we're gonna win. We're
- 11:30Speaker 2: gonna find Jalen Williams is gonna be all NBA as
- 11:33Speaker 2: the twelfth pick in the draft. That guy doesn't come
- 11:35Speaker 2: around very often, and I don't know that what this
- 11:38Speaker 2: group has shown in their last decade plus that they're
- 11:42Speaker 2: great at identifying that guy in the draft and then
- 11:44Speaker 2: developing him.
- 11:45Speaker 3: That's part of the problem is the drafting has not
- 11:47Speaker 3: been good, and it is sort of yeah, you obviously
- 11:50Speaker 3: have a better chance to get good players when you're
- 11:51Speaker 3: picking hind in the draft, top five and all that stuff,
- 11:54Speaker 3: but it is sort of a hopeful notion to think
- 11:57Speaker 3: that it's gonna be that easy to rebuild. Obviously, the
- 11:59Speaker 3: more picks better, because it's a numbers game. You know,
- 12:02Speaker 3: you can't exactly predict you know, who's gonna be great,
- 12:05Speaker 3: and trying and project humans going forward, you kind of
- 12:08Speaker 3: need a little luck in there, and the more picks
- 12:09Speaker 3: you have, the more likely order to hit them. One
- 12:11Speaker 3: of those guys. SGA is a great example. You mentioned
- 12:13Speaker 3: Gilean Williams, but I think that's part of the problem.
- 12:16Speaker 3: So coming back, you say to yourself, well, would I
- 12:19Speaker 3: like a little bit of an own quantity there and
- 12:21Speaker 3: then you have you know, you talk about the Wares
- 12:23Speaker 3: and Tyler Hero those guys, you know, they're known quantities.
- 12:27Speaker 3: But then it's like, are we gonna be just the
- 12:29Speaker 3: twenty twelve bucks? Like hoping for an eight seed. You
- 12:32Speaker 3: don't want to be stuck in that purgatory either. So
- 12:34Speaker 3: it's a difficult position to be in because you want
- 12:37Speaker 3: to make sure if we are going to make this move,
- 12:39Speaker 3: it would be seismic. We're we're gonna have to be
- 12:42Speaker 3: willing to make the size of movement. Say we're actually
- 12:44Speaker 3: gonna give up, you know, our greatest ever asset, our
- 12:48Speaker 3: greatest ever player. It better be for the right things
- 12:51Speaker 3: and we better do something with it to make it
- 12:52Speaker 3: worth its while. And that second part, I think is
- 12:55Speaker 3: the toughest part. Well in is the drafting part.
- 12:57Speaker 2: Now, if you compare it to what just did fifty
- 12:59Speaker 2: one years ago, I don't know that he's your best
- 13:02Speaker 2: asset ever, right, Like at that point, Kareem would have been,
- 13:06Speaker 2: right Like, at that point, Kareem was the unquestioned best
- 13:10Speaker 2: player in the league. Yeah, and was was still with
- 13:14Speaker 2: the situation of obviously he wanted to go to Los Angeles.
- 13:17Speaker 2: So maybe you were you were backed into that corner
- 13:19Speaker 2: a la New York.
- 13:20Speaker 1: Right, But this one, I think, I think.
- 13:21Speaker 2: There's real questions as to around the league of people
- 13:25Speaker 2: wanting to give Giannis the two hundred and seventy five
- 13:27Speaker 2: million dollars Drew and feeling pretty comfortable that he's going
- 13:31Speaker 2: to hold up, where at that point there wasn't necessarily
- 13:33Speaker 2: those kind of questions.
- 13:34Speaker 1: But at all with Kareem, Yeah, it was it. It
- 13:37Speaker 1: was different because.
- 13:37Speaker 2: I mean that package got you two guys that have
- 13:41Speaker 2: their numbers up. Like I know, it wasn't great, but
- 13:44Speaker 2: it got you two guys that retired their Jersey sustainment start.
- 13:47Speaker 1: Absolutely it did seven nine one ninety seven to three
- 13:52Speaker 1: Buy or Sell Tuesday in the good Land.
- 13:55Speaker 2: Do you buy that they're just going all future assets
- 13:57Speaker 2: Drew or do you think that they're in I guess
- 13:59Speaker 2: the other thing is we don't necessarily know what some
- 14:01Speaker 2: of the Jimmy haslam edech might be For John Horsing.
- 14:04Speaker 1: I mean, part of me says, you got to keep
- 14:06Speaker 1: the lights on. Their best business is being in the
- 14:08Speaker 1: honest business, obviously, but you got to keep the lights on,
- 14:12Speaker 1: like you can't.
- 14:13Speaker 3: There's going to be a business dip when he leaves,
- 14:15Speaker 3: no matter what there is, that's just the reality of that.
- 14:18Speaker 1: There is. Yeah, but you know, when you've got the
- 14:20Speaker 1: arena and stuff to do, we have the stomach for
- 14:22Speaker 1: a four year rebuild or a three year I mean,
- 14:25Speaker 1: look at the Spurs. They were bad for what eight
- 14:28Speaker 1: nine years?
- 14:29Speaker 2: Yes, correct, And then the NBA saw what they built
- 14:32Speaker 2: and they said, you know what, We're actually going to
- 14:33Speaker 2: not allow you to ever do that again.
- 14:35Speaker 3: Well, right, the right time they hit the right prospect.
- 14:38Speaker 3: It wasn't just getting the number one, it was the.
- 14:39Speaker 1: Right year they get Yeah, but what about what about
- 14:43Speaker 1: what the Knicks have built? Like, you got a bunch
- 14:44Speaker 1: of guys with grit, and you got a bunch of
- 14:47Speaker 1: guys that you know, Jalen Brunson kind of the face
- 14:51Speaker 1: of the league now, but almost by default, nobody wanted
- 14:53Speaker 1: to make him the face of the league. Lefty point guard.
- 14:57Speaker 1: He's not undersize or athletic about him. It's like a
- 15:01Speaker 1: normal dude killer. So, yeah, go find the next Jayleen Brunton. Well,
- 15:07Speaker 1: easier said than done. But you can build a team
- 15:10Speaker 1: like you know, Kat's a nice player, but he was
- 15:12Speaker 1: He's underachieved at other places.
- 15:14Speaker 2: And in the right mix of the guys with the
- 15:17Speaker 2: right time.
- 15:18Speaker 1: To be able to the right guys. On the flip side,
- 15:20Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna repeat either.
- 15:21Speaker 3: And the Bucks did what they did that one that
- 15:23Speaker 3: one year they made their run, and like the last
- 15:26Speaker 3: eight years have been one year one now say one
- 15:29Speaker 3: year wonders, but teams have been one and done and
- 15:31Speaker 3: haven't been able to sustained. So if that's the goal,
- 15:33Speaker 3: it's like, can you rebuild and make a run for one?
- 15:35Speaker 3: You can, but it's it's still you have to be
- 15:38Speaker 3: the best out of you know, a group of teams
- 15:40Speaker 3: to win the championship, and just because there aren't as
- 15:43Speaker 3: many dynasties doesn't make it that much necessary.
- 15:45Speaker 2: Maybe that's the maybe what you just touched on there
- 15:47Speaker 2: is the recalibration we have to have. Yeah, you can
- 15:50Speaker 2: make a run and win one, right Like as sports fans,
- 15:53Speaker 2: it's always been well, if you can't win three or four,
- 15:57Speaker 2: what's the if you don't win multiple or for it.
- 16:01Speaker 3: There's also the same amount of teams trying to win
- 16:03Speaker 3: that aren't just because there aren't dynastys. Orlando didn't make
- 16:06Speaker 3: it happen. The Pistons are gonna sit around wondering what
- 16:08Speaker 3: we had to do. The Cleveland Cavaliers are gonna sit
- 16:10Speaker 3: around saying, well, why can't we be the Everyone wants
- 16:13Speaker 3: that top spot and and the percentage chances to win
- 16:15Speaker 3: or the same no matter what. So it's always gonna
- 16:18Speaker 3: be tough. It's like, can you put yourself in a
- 16:19Speaker 3: position to make the run? And then can you make
- 16:21Speaker 3: the run? Because a lot of teams are gonna say,
- 16:23Speaker 3: all right, I like my starting hand here, let's see
- 16:25Speaker 3: how the flop and the turn it. You know, you
- 16:27Speaker 3: have to have things go your way in the end.
- 16:29Speaker 3: The Knicks kind of went all in to build this
- 16:31Speaker 3: team right in some ways. I don't know if the
- 16:33Speaker 3: all ends the right.
- 16:36Speaker 1: They did.
- 16:37Speaker 3: They traded for Carl Anthony Towns and it worked out
- 16:39Speaker 3: for them. They weren't super deep, but it worked out
- 16:41Speaker 3: at the right time. Jalen brunts and had the run
- 16:43Speaker 3: of his life. So you know, you have to you
- 16:46Speaker 3: have to kind of set yourself up with the right
- 16:47Speaker 3: players for that run. And sometimes that is getting the
- 16:51Speaker 3: right you know, the Pistons were bad, then they got
- 16:53Speaker 3: kid and it didn't take them all on the turn around.
- 16:55Speaker 3: That's the one thing you can possibly say is if
- 16:57Speaker 3: you get the right picks and the right guys, maybe
- 16:59Speaker 3: you can make it a quick turnaround, you know, but
- 17:02Speaker 3: that there'sn't guarantees of any of that.
- 17:04Speaker 2: No, I mean, let's be honest. The guarant the Jalen
- 17:07Speaker 2: Brunson what one's harder to replicate. And this this is
- 17:12Speaker 2: a difficult thing to laugh at or not laugh at.
- 17:15Speaker 2: But a free agent signing of a former second round
- 17:19Speaker 2: pick who then becomes the most clutch player in basketball
- 17:23Speaker 2: and also leaves one hundred million dollars on the table
- 17:26Speaker 2: so you can add better players around him, or drafting
- 17:29Speaker 2: a guy in the middle of the first round that
- 17:30Speaker 2: ultimately becomes an MVP. I mean they're both pretty unheard of. Yeah,
- 17:35Speaker 2: pretty nuts, But one is maybe more replicated than the other,
- 17:39Speaker 2: and the one that you hit might be an easier
- 17:43Speaker 2: one to call back on. I don't think it's an
- 17:45Speaker 2: easy spot to think that you're grabbing another international guy
- 17:47Speaker 2: and he's just going to ultimately be awesome. But my
- 17:50Speaker 2: belief that the Bucks grab a Nate a met from
- 17:52Speaker 2: uh from Tennessee, and all of a sudden they're going
- 17:55Speaker 2: to develop him into the next face of the league.
- 17:58Speaker 2: Their player development has an gendered a whole lot of that.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Kind of commons. That's the thing.
- 18:02Speaker 3: That's the thing, Billy, and you have to if you're
- 18:04Speaker 3: not gonna have I hate to say, if you don't
- 18:06Speaker 3: have great skill in that department, at least you need
- 18:08Speaker 3: high picks.
- 18:09Speaker 1: You need guys that can't miss.
- 18:10Speaker 3: The Spurs were blessed Wemby, all right, and then they
- 18:13Speaker 3: built around him with Dylan Harper and the other guys
- 18:15Speaker 3: did work out, you know, obviously Castle they got a
- 18:17Speaker 3: bunch of picks at the right time that all played well.
- 18:19Speaker 3: But they had a centerpiece. Oklahoma City had a centerpiece,
- 18:23Speaker 3: still has, right. The Knicks got it in a different way,
- 18:27Speaker 3: but it turned out to be a centerpiece. You still
- 18:28Speaker 3: need that centerpiece to make it happen, and then you
- 18:31Speaker 3: build around it.
- 18:33Speaker 1: Well, that's what we thought with Giannest. Yeah, and it
- 18:35Speaker 1: was that.
- 18:35Speaker 3: It was and it continued to be that until now
- 18:38Speaker 3: you're gonna choose to do so I'm saying, that's I agree,
- 18:41Speaker 3: and that's what it is.
- 18:43Speaker 1: Denver. They're gonna sit around one. Why are we doing
- 18:45Speaker 1: it again?
- 18:46Speaker 3: It's like, Okay, you can't do it every year, but
- 18:48Speaker 3: you're trying to. And then everyone's looking for that secret formula,
- 18:51Speaker 3: and maybe there is, maybe there isn't one.
- 18:54Speaker 2: Alex and Cambria said, I heard Giannis might end up
- 18:57Speaker 2: going to Minnesota. I know the Timberwolves would love to
- 19:00Speaker 2: somehow make that happen somehow, but I don't. I don't
- 19:03Speaker 2: know how they're good luck. I don't know how they're
- 19:05Speaker 2: they're crafting it. Jayde McDaniels will be a nice one
- 19:08Speaker 2: coming back, but we're gonna need quite a bit more Drewe.
- 19:10Speaker 1: There's another team.
- 19:11Speaker 2: I need quite a bit.
- 19:11Speaker 1: There's another team.
- 19:12Speaker 3: Everyone thinks, hey, they're next, and then we're still waiting
- 19:14Speaker 3: for them to be next. We're still winning for ant
- 19:16Speaker 3: Edwards to be Jordan. Like everyone's like, oh, he's Jordan. Okay,
- 19:19Speaker 3: well he's really good. We'll see if he's Jordan.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Is he better than Jordan on the Wizards.
- 19:23Speaker 1: I'm kidding, Hey, now kidding, I'll say he is. Yes,
- 19:25Speaker 1: all right, I'll say eight seven seven seven nine three.
- 19:29Speaker 1: You are in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. We're

- 21:02Speaker 1: Tonight we mentioned Brewers Cooper Pratt Day in Milwaukee Garth
- 21:05Speaker 1: Brooks in town to kind of kick off Summerfest like
- 21:08Speaker 1: with two shows. First one tonight at the American Family
- 21:11Speaker 1: Insurance Amphitheater. American Family Field will be rocking with Brewers
- 21:15Speaker 1: fans as the Brewers take on the Guardians. Cooper Pratt
- 21:17Speaker 1: going to make his debut. We're buying and selling hit
- 21:19Speaker 1: us up eight seven seven seven nine Nicolay Law dot com,
- 21:23Speaker 1: talk and text line. Are we entering the last days
- 21:26Speaker 1: of the honest era in Milwaukee?
- 21:27Speaker 2: Potentially feels like we're getting into that that zone, Drew
- 21:31Speaker 2: uh and and it I mean Jimmy Haslman Company said
- 21:35Speaker 2: we're gonna figure this thing out before the draft or
- 21:37Speaker 2: the draft is one week, so we're gonna.
- 21:38Speaker 1: Yeah, we're getting there quick and uh, As Jim o's
- 21:41Speaker 1: Arski pointed, out in others like none of the stuff,
- 21:44Speaker 1: none of the smoke that you're hearing, none of the
- 21:45Speaker 1: rumors coming from the Bucks. They locked that down, they do.
- 21:48Speaker 1: John Horse operates in from a bunker.
- 21:51Speaker 2: And moves in silence like a gen well, and I
- 21:53Speaker 2: also wonder how much of it's even coming from the
- 21:56Speaker 2: other side, right, especially the Boston one like Brad Stevens
- 21:59Speaker 2: ain't letting a lot of that stuff out like that.
- 22:01Speaker 2: And I enjoy I enjoy the Simmons podcast, especially during
- 22:05Speaker 2: NBA playoff time. He's gotten stuff before. But there's also
- 22:10Speaker 2: when you focus on the rumor conversation, which I enjoy
- 22:13Speaker 2: a lot, right like MLB trade rumors coming around the
- 22:17Speaker 2: last week of July. I'm all in on the other possibilities.
- 22:22Speaker 2: Your boy did win Gossip King when he was in
- 22:23Speaker 2: high school? Is that senior superlative?
- 22:25Speaker 1: So I enjoy.
- 22:26Speaker 2: I enjoy the little Titbitch Drew and the fantasizing about
- 22:29Speaker 2: what could be on the matchups off here. But I
- 22:32Speaker 2: don't know if the three teams that are most linked
- 22:36Speaker 2: in here Miami, Milwaukee and Boston obviously Milwaukee with the player,
- 22:41Speaker 2: the other two trying to acquire well one's been trying
- 22:43Speaker 2: to get the guy for a year and a half,
- 22:45Speaker 2: So at some point pat Riley has thrown enough flares
- 22:48Speaker 2: out there like yeah we want them, Yeah we want them,
- 22:51Speaker 2: Yeah we want them. Is anybody else gonna take him?
- 22:54Speaker 2: And it feels like there's been the waiting for the
- 22:56Speaker 2: Bucks to get a better offer, waiting for Miami a
- 22:58Speaker 2: suite in the package, or also, as there always is,
- 23:02Speaker 2: deadline spur action. And now the next week before the draft,
- 23:07Speaker 2: I think this is when all teams start really understanding, Hey,
- 23:10Speaker 2: if we're gonna make this move, and it would be
- 23:12Speaker 2: a seismic move, I think we got to do it now.
- 23:14Speaker 2: We got to try to tap it in. And that's
- 23:16Speaker 2: where you're hearing more different teams start entering the fray,
- 23:19Speaker 2: whether it's acquiring Giannis or one of the offshoots of
- 23:22Speaker 2: a Hero or Jalen Brown, like you heard the Clippers
- 23:24Speaker 2: a little bit yesterday.
- 23:25Speaker 1: I still think that's a great idea.
- 23:27Speaker 2: If the Bucks are able to somehow walk out of
- 23:28Speaker 2: here with the fifth pick in this year's draft, then
- 23:31Speaker 2: you have, yeah, then the top ten picks, and again
- 23:34Speaker 2: you know you're not necessarily going to be winning anything
- 23:37Speaker 2: over the next couple of years. But then you get
- 23:38Speaker 2: some groundwork to be able to have young players develop
- 23:41Speaker 2: hopefully together under Taylor.
- 23:42Speaker 1: Jenkins and company. Then the build and do that thing.
- 23:44Speaker 2: So and you grabbed Terius Acuff, who I think would
- 23:47Speaker 2: be maybe the best opportunity that you'd be able.
- 23:49Speaker 3: That's a billy's guy. Remember he said it here first, folks,
- 23:51Speaker 3: Darius Acuff.
- 23:52Speaker 1: You have been on that for a while.
- 23:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I think he's the cleanest, the closest
- 23:57Speaker 2: to a pro ready guy that you're gonna grab there
- 23:58Speaker 2: because otherwise the top two guys are gonna go. And
- 24:01Speaker 2: I don't know what ends up happening with Darren Peterson.
- 24:03Speaker 2: He's not going No, he's only going to the Wizards.
- 24:06Speaker 2: I ain't going to Utah.
- 24:07Speaker 1: I'm not visiting any of you guys. I'm not meeting
- 24:08Speaker 1: with any of you guys.
- 24:09Speaker 2: So the are you buying or selling that Utah is
- 24:13Speaker 2: gonna be able to trade up one spot and flip
- 24:16Speaker 2: with Washington and go and get their boy Ajponsa.
- 24:19Speaker 1: I think they'd like to. I think they desperately want
- 24:22Speaker 1: cost Yeah, but what's the cost cost benefit analysis?
- 24:25Speaker 2: And if I'm Washington, I'm saying, well, yeah, let's let's
- 24:28Speaker 2: let's talk, let's deal, let's get let's let's have a conversation,
- 24:31Speaker 2: because right now, Washington's also one of the more intriguing teams.
- 24:34Speaker 2: Do we really think they're gonna take the number one
- 24:36Speaker 2: overall pick? And that guy's gonna play with Anthony Davis
- 24:40Speaker 2: and Trey Young.
- 24:41Speaker 1: It's a good point.
- 24:42Speaker 2: Most will forget that those guys are on the Wizards
- 24:45Speaker 2: check because they didn't play it all for the Wizards
- 24:48Speaker 2: this year. They both got traded for and then prompably
- 24:50Speaker 2: sat to be able to tank.
- 24:52Speaker 3: They're an enigma because in some ways you think, oh,
- 24:54Speaker 3: they're ready to win now or make a move now.
- 24:56Speaker 3: In some ways it's like are you betting on the future?
- 24:59Speaker 3: Like what are you really do? Went over there? People
- 25:01Speaker 3: have scratched their head about that, but they have so
- 25:03Speaker 3: many Wisconsin connections. We kind of pay attention to the Wizards,
- 25:06Speaker 3: or at least they've had that.
- 25:07Speaker 1: They've had a couple, they've also cut a couple of Well.
- 25:10Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fair too, that's fair right, because Johnny and
- 25:13Speaker 3: those guys are he's gone now. We do have a
- 25:16Speaker 3: comment from uh. I wanted to get this in from Dobbler.
- 25:20Speaker 3: He was talking about Cooper Pratt. It is Cooper Pratt.
- 25:22Speaker 3: They were still talking about it. I can't wait to
- 25:24Speaker 3: see how Murphy's tutel edgit with Pratt will turn out.
- 25:26Speaker 3: Happy days are here again? Yeah, they're also they weren't
- 25:29Speaker 3: gone like this is the good old days.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Like we are in first place where the golden age
- 25:34Speaker 1: of Brewers base A lot of people did not forget that.
- 25:36Speaker 1: Even though we're excited about the young players.
- 25:39Speaker 3: Happy days are here again, I'm like, what am I
- 25:42Speaker 3: missing here? We're not like the terrible baseball team here.
- 25:45Speaker 2: Well, but for Dobbler, though he has been watching enough
- 25:49Speaker 2: Cooper Pratt right, he's been seeing a decent amount of
- 25:51Speaker 2: the Nashville Sounds, So Dobbler might have the better idea of, Hey,
- 25:55Speaker 2: you guys are in for.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Something when you get to get a look at this
- 25:57Speaker 1: Cooper Prat guy. The big league love, that's true.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Slash lines that I saw folks throwing around on social
- 26:03Speaker 2: media were not getting me all that excited for what
- 26:05Speaker 2: Cooper pretts to do at the big league level.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Drew.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Yeah, well, from what we heard this morning as well,
- 26:10Speaker 3: it's like he after the contract was a little bit,
- 26:12Speaker 3: you know, tightened up a little bit and then he
- 26:14Speaker 3: loosened up and eyes but hitting better recently, so hopefully,
- 26:17Speaker 3: hopefully he's on that trend. And you know, you brought
- 26:20Speaker 3: the JJ Hardy example up earlier, Drew, and it was
- 26:22Speaker 3: very instructive that these guys are you have long term
- 26:25Speaker 3: investment in the man, you can't you can't judge him
- 26:27Speaker 3: based on just a couple of weeks, So you have
- 26:29Speaker 3: to kind of be patient with them. We are trying
- 26:32Speaker 3: to win now though, and I would think that's the
- 26:34Speaker 3: flip side of what what the point is also Billy
- 26:37Speaker 3: is well, he's also here to improve that position.
- 26:39Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, trying to get him better a little bit point,
- 26:41Speaker 1: good point. And as much as ren Hefo and Ortiz
- 26:44Speaker 1: struggled at different times, like they had their hot streaks too,
- 26:47Speaker 1: that's it's the ebb and flow.
- 26:48Speaker 2: It's you know, ren he Fo hit himself into a
- 26:51Speaker 2: decent amount of bad luck.
- 26:53Speaker 1: Is that fair?
- 26:54Speaker 2: Like I you watch all of the bets that he's had,
- 26:57Speaker 2: He's had some especially early, it felt like he had
- 26:59Speaker 2: a lot of sharp time. That's that's the question to have. Look,
- 27:04Speaker 2: you get the deep cuts on on louis probably lower
- 27:07Speaker 2: than average, But yeah, to your point. That's that's you.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Know, he's also I looked at him as more than
- 27:12Speaker 1: the stop gap anyway. Absolutely yeah, It's not like they
- 27:16Speaker 1: spent a ton of money on him. Nothing.
- 27:18Speaker 2: Nothing.
- 27:19Speaker 1: Uh.
- 27:22Speaker 2: I'm fascinated for how many obviously how many shirtsey's end
- 27:25Speaker 2: up going here tonight for for Cooper Pratt? Do they
- 27:27Speaker 2: have him ready? What number does he rock? Because Arman
- 27:31Speaker 2: Sarian really cares about this in football. He gets very
- 27:34Speaker 2: mad when you see players, you know, big skill guys.
- 27:37Speaker 2: We say big skill when you're talking about like defensive linemen, tackles,
- 27:42Speaker 2: things like that, you know, tight ends. And then like
- 27:44Speaker 2: when big skill guys are wearing smaller numbers, most people say, hey,
- 27:47Speaker 2: if you're gonna be on the infield, true, you better
- 27:48Speaker 2: be rocking an under twenty jersey. You better in something suite.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Brewers don't have a ton available. Is he gonna run
- 27:54Speaker 2: out there an agent zero? Well, are we going to
- 27:57Speaker 2: see him wearing the twelve, which they've had as much
- 27:59Speaker 2: of the revolving door of any human beings.
- 28:01Speaker 1: The zero? Yeah, Terang was zero for a year.
- 28:05Speaker 2: Once that one became available to thank you very much,
- 28:07Speaker 2: I'm we'll take that one right there. Or are people
- 28:10Speaker 2: gonna be Are people gonna be skeittish? Are people gonna
- 28:13Speaker 2: be a little gun shy? Because a year ago they
- 28:16Speaker 2: went to a certain debut of a young man named
- 28:19Speaker 2: Jacob Mizerowski who threw five per no hit innings in
- 28:23Speaker 2: his debut, and they said, holy smokes, give me a
- 28:26Speaker 2: thirty three Jacob Mizerowski jersey, and then the next day
- 28:30Speaker 2: he's flipped a thirty two. So there might be some
- 28:32Speaker 2: folks that are a little gun shy onto which one
- 28:34Speaker 2: you're grabbing? And if you're buying the jersey here tonight,
- 28:37Speaker 2: if you're there at Cooper.
- 28:38Speaker 3: Pratt Deck, great observation. I forgot about that, But then again,
- 28:42Speaker 3: you were then you were? Aren't you also like advertising
- 28:45Speaker 3: that you were a real one fan wise like I
- 28:47Speaker 3: was on the inside.
- 28:48Speaker 1: I got him with his first original number.
- 28:50Speaker 2: You can tell yourself that I'm gonna o G Well, yeah,
- 28:53Speaker 2: you can tell yourself that.
- 28:55Speaker 1: I got his OG number. What were you guys around?
- 28:57Speaker 2: There's also somebody that walks by you wearing a thirty
- 29:00Speaker 2: three Miserowski jersey and goes, wow, d Hkate really messed
- 29:03Speaker 2: that one.
- 29:04Speaker 3: Up, which is very possible or fanatics, So forget if
- 29:07Speaker 3: you'd like the Hank Aaron number five jersey because he
- 29:09Speaker 3: first came up as number five Hooper.
- 29:11Speaker 1: Pratt's got a big bank account. Does he go up
- 29:13Speaker 1: to Jake Bowers and try to buy number nine from him?
- 29:17Speaker 1: How much is that? That's the question. Jake Bowers having
- 29:20Speaker 1: a great season.
- 29:21Speaker 2: Jake Bowers could end up being an All Star and
- 29:23Speaker 2: have a number change and grab a little bit of
- 29:25Speaker 2: a coin.
- 29:26Speaker 1: That Pratt's got more zeros and his bank account than
- 29:28Speaker 1: Jake Bowers does.
- 29:29Speaker 2: Yes, yep, that's that's unquestioning, not only from this contract,
- 29:32Speaker 2: but he grabbed a nice, little sizable one when they
- 29:35Speaker 2: drafted him.
- 29:36Speaker 3: Right.
- 29:36Speaker 1: That was one of the reasons why I kind of
- 29:37Speaker 1: slid down? Was designabil kind of overslot? Yeah, So stay tuned.
- 29:44Speaker 1: Who was it? We were just talking about what someone
- 29:47Speaker 1: offered or didn't offer for a jersey. It was in
- 29:50Speaker 1: the NFL. Who was it?
- 29:52Speaker 2: Well?
- 29:52Speaker 1: Was it Cam Newton? No? Somebody?
- 29:54Speaker 3: Well?
- 29:54Speaker 2: The Abdua Carter one was the one that frustrated the
- 29:56Speaker 2: hell out of me a year ago of my man
- 29:59Speaker 2: was going to the New York Giants and all he
- 30:01Speaker 2: wanted to do was play in a jersey that was
- 30:03Speaker 2: retired there's a reason why it is a retired number. No,
- 30:07Speaker 2: you're not taking the fifty six off of the facade
- 30:10Speaker 2: and wearing Lawrence Taylor's number. How about you find a
- 30:13Speaker 2: new one and then where make Oh wait, I can't
- 30:17Speaker 2: also have number eleven because what did this Phil Simms
- 30:19Speaker 2: guy win a Super Bowl or something?
- 30:21Speaker 3: Right, and like find a different battle to fight, Like
- 30:23Speaker 3: this is not good. Why do you care so much
- 30:25Speaker 3: about the number? Like it is kind of weird. Like, yeah,
- 30:28Speaker 3: I get that you like a number and you might
- 30:29Speaker 3: have a preference, but it's not that important.
- 30:31Speaker 1: It's just the number.
- 30:32Speaker 3: And these are the two best players in that franchise history.
- 30:35Speaker 3: Why don't you trying to maybe acquiesce yourself to the
- 30:38Speaker 3: franchise a little bit, like be smart about it.
- 30:40Speaker 1: But I guess if some guys want to do that
- 30:43Speaker 1: for a number, so be it.
- 30:45Speaker 3: I think some guys are happy to take their number
- 30:47Speaker 3: and give him their number to get a number on
- 30:49Speaker 3: a check that.
- 30:50Speaker 1: I think they're happy to get that.
- 30:52Speaker 3: Like, you know, I remember when John Yorkobit gave ninety
- 30:54Speaker 3: two to Reggie White.
- 30:55Speaker 1: He didn't mind. It was like basically they just told him,
- 30:57Speaker 1: you're giving this number to him. But yeah, by the way,
- 31:00Speaker 1: you're gonna switch.
- 31:01Speaker 3: I'm trying to find out what numbers Cooper Pratt War's
- 31:03Speaker 3: wole career was it always number nine in like I
- 31:06Speaker 3: don't just now in Nashville he's been number nine.
- 31:09Speaker 2: Maybe it doesn't matter to him, but like number eighteen
- 31:11Speaker 2: would be available.
- 31:13Speaker 3: That's not bad, But like, don't put him also when
- 31:15Speaker 3: he comes up, like you think he's gonna be that guy,
- 31:17Speaker 3: don't put.
- 31:18Speaker 1: Him in number sixty eight or something.
- 31:19Speaker 2: Well, he was rocking eighty seven in spring training.
- 31:22Speaker 1: Eighty seven is tough. That's the tough. Any number in
- 31:24Speaker 1: the eighties, you'll be your own man. Though. That's a
- 31:27Speaker 1: good point. Aaron Judge is ninety nine.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Why don't you go why don't you go make Why
- 31:31Speaker 2: don't you gonna make seventy eight famous?
- 31:33Speaker 3: Josh Hayter was doing it with seventy three, right, seventy one,
- 31:36Speaker 3: seventy one.
- 31:37Speaker 1: Sorry, seventy one.
- 31:38Speaker 3: Sorry, I forgot the seventies whatever that Josh hater was
- 31:41Speaker 3: in I will. We're still not giving away seventeen, right,
- 31:44Speaker 3: Jim Ganner, We're still not giving that.
- 31:46Speaker 1: Away to anybody. No, that's not it's unretired.
- 31:48Speaker 3: But it's retired, it's unofficially retired.
- 31:52Speaker 1: They haven't issued it.
- 31:53Speaker 2: I would like him to just go completely off the
- 31:55Speaker 2: wall and all of a sudden he runs out there
- 31:57Speaker 2: in like a forty.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Nine something like that.
- 31:59Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe he should, because Murph also did have a
- 32:02Speaker 2: run there where he was getting where he kept getting
- 32:04Speaker 2: his number taken.
- 32:05Speaker 1: Could be sixty three because he's like the sixty third prospect. Yeah,
- 32:11Speaker 1: I like that one as well. You gotta find something
- 32:14Speaker 1: in number fifty for his eight years and fifty million dollars.
- 32:18Speaker 2: Well, wouldn't that be something not much I can't buy
- 32:20Speaker 2: with fifty million dollars zero? See classic Ryan Brown right
- 32:23Speaker 2: there for a shortstop.
- 32:24Speaker 3: Zero seems good and zero's like it's a cool number
- 32:27Speaker 3: to have. Now, Matthew Golden wanted it really bad. That
- 32:29Speaker 3: was his third number.
- 32:30Speaker 2: If you remember what about what about the one I
- 32:32Speaker 2: just mentioned there and I kind of accidentally did it
- 32:34Speaker 2: is eight available?
- 32:36Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, now you hit on a discussion. Yeah,
- 32:41Speaker 1: waiting on that one.
- 32:42Speaker 2: If he asked, If he asks for it, I'm like
- 32:45Speaker 2: I would be interested because I still I still believe
- 32:49Speaker 2: Braun's number is going to end up on that stage
- 32:51Speaker 2: sooner rather than later, I think, I think you're right.
- 32:53Speaker 3: Well, Pat this Dashoor Malders wore Ford didn't he? And
- 32:57Speaker 3: I think Paul blessed it before it was retired that yeah,
- 33:00Speaker 3: he can wear it.
- 33:01Speaker 1: I could be wrong with that story. No he didn't.
- 33:03Speaker 1: I thought it was I thought Les slash War sixteen
- 33:06Speaker 1: and he did, but he wore four. At one point
- 33:07Speaker 1: I thought this was a story. I'm gonna look it
- 33:09Speaker 1: up there and look it up.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Come Michael Arman, you throwing missing from Ron and Stellas said, uh,
- 33:15Speaker 2: nineteen ninety six, he wore four.
- 33:17Speaker 1: Come on, now I have well And then it was retired. Uh,
- 33:20Speaker 1: Ron and Stella said, I have a zero Terraank jersey.
- 33:22Speaker 1: I'll wait for a bit to consider a Pratt jersey
- 33:24Speaker 1: in case he changed his numbers.
- 33:26Speaker 3: The best when Terrans, which summer is the best thing
- 33:28Speaker 3: that happened to all the value of seekers.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Like Jake Bauers, is gone next year, then uh, Pratt
- 33:33Speaker 1: might get his number.
- 33:34Speaker 2: Then he might jump over there.
- 33:35Speaker 1: I do it.
- 33:36Speaker 2: I still think you go go find something different. I
- 33:38Speaker 2: like the sixty three. I like sixty three. It adds
- 33:40Speaker 2: up to nine. There's some more synergy there that we
- 33:43Speaker 2: could do or just throw something completely off the wall
- 33:45Speaker 2: run out there in seventy five and he would have happen.
- 33:47Speaker 1: All right? Why not? I mean, hell, if he's good,
- 33:50Speaker 1: I don't care what the hell, as long as he's good.
- 33:52Speaker 1: Eight seven seven seven nine four one ninety seven three.

- 35:00Speaker 1: story is.
- 35:00Speaker 2: Your boy may have already spoiled his Waken Bake story
- 35:03Speaker 2: earlier on today because I got way too excited and
- 35:05Speaker 2: it was just one of the funniest things that I
- 35:06Speaker 2: may have ever seen that I had to talk about
- 35:08Speaker 2: it earlier on here today. The waken bag story is
- 35:11Speaker 2: how can you ruin one of the great moments in
- 35:13Speaker 2: all of baseball, the thirteenth cycle in Cubs history. Last night,
- 35:17Speaker 2: albeit comes in a win, a walk off victory, that
- 35:21Speaker 2: might be what turns the tide for the folks in Chicago.
- 35:23Speaker 2: They're asking that today on the score, is this the
- 35:26Speaker 2: win that flips the scales and changes the equation and
- 35:31Speaker 2: immediately puts the Cubs back on the winning way. Cuz
- 35:34Speaker 2: their stud their man, they're one hundred and forty million,
- 35:38Speaker 2: sixty million. Center fielder Pete Crow Armstrong yesterday hits for
- 35:43Speaker 2: the cycle. The reverse cycle goes homer, triple, double single.
- 35:48Speaker 2: As he stands on first base, Drew gives a tip
- 35:50Speaker 2: of the hat in the seventh inning during crowd at
- 35:53Speaker 2: Wrigleyfield before the next pitch is thrown to the man
- 35:57Speaker 2: sitting in the two hole, Pete Row Armstrong has promptly
- 35:59Speaker 2: picked off firstable in a two to one game in
- 36:03Speaker 2: this second.
- 36:04Speaker 1: A two to one game that the Cubs were winning
- 36:06Speaker 1: in the seventh.
- 36:07Speaker 2: Then in the top half of the eighth inning, how
- 36:09Speaker 2: do you answer that if you're the Colorado Rockies, Well,
- 36:11Speaker 2: you hit a three run homer and all of a
- 36:13Speaker 2: sudden flip the scoreboard around. The Cubs do end up
- 36:15Speaker 2: winning it PCA. I think in the eighth inning it
- 36:17Speaker 2: was had a sack fly to bring them together and
- 36:21Speaker 2: then they walk it off in the ninth. But what
- 36:23Speaker 2: a moment, what a time, And Drew does that fall
- 36:26Speaker 2: into the that's baseball category.
- 36:28Speaker 1: That'll come at you quick man. Game will humble you
- 36:31Speaker 1: in a hurry.
- 36:31Speaker 2: Humbles folks like nobody's business.
- 36:34Speaker 1: I do an audible mention for waken Bake here.
- 36:36Speaker 3: Yeah, there's an also an article that's out now about okay.
- 36:40Speaker 3: In New York Knicks Wilson run the Knicks celebration tour.
- 36:43Speaker 1: I get it.
- 36:44Speaker 3: Everyone's gonna be into this next thing, and that's great,
- 36:47Speaker 3: and then the article pops up. New York Knicks owner
- 36:49Speaker 3: James Dowin delivered an impassionate speech in front of his
- 36:51Speaker 3: team before the playoffs, imploring the players and sees the
- 36:54Speaker 3: opportunity and asking that they make certain sacrifices that you
- 36:56Speaker 3: get their gold winning a change.
- 36:57Speaker 1: The video is hilarious.
- 36:58Speaker 3: The video released Monday, and podcast Room made show holds
- 37:01Speaker 3: It by Jalen and Josh Hart. Now listen really quick.
- 37:04Speaker 3: I guess my point here is we're not doing this.
- 37:06Speaker 3: I'm not giving James doing any credit for some sort
- 37:10Speaker 3: of speech.
- 37:11Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Is that we're doing.
- 37:13Speaker 3: I mean, I know we're gonna celebrate and now everyone's
- 37:15Speaker 3: gonna get a Rosie story and a Rosie glow. We're
- 37:18Speaker 3: giving James. We're not giving James Dolan. You're not gonna
- 37:22Speaker 3: let him have he can have it, Charles. It's just
- 37:26Speaker 3: the idea that now they're gonna start and saying, well,
- 37:28Speaker 3: he was his speech that inspired.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Break, It was his it was his ham handed handling
- 37:34Speaker 1: of franchise matters that kept them buried.
- 37:37Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you Drew for putting it as succinctly
- 37:39Speaker 3: and perfectly as you possibly could do.
- 37:41Speaker 1: One asked Nicks for a sacrifice.
- 37:43Speaker 2: A sacrifice. Now, did you see the video?
- 37:46Speaker 1: I didn't get a chance to see. I saw like
- 37:48Speaker 1: some of it on silent.
- 37:49Speaker 2: I had to look at you got you gotta see
- 37:51Speaker 2: the you gotta see the video and is uh again?
- 37:53Speaker 1: I am with you.
- 37:54Speaker 2: That is not the reason they won. However, when he
- 37:57Speaker 2: promises you go tell your wife, your girlfriend, you find
- 38:02Speaker 2: somebody here for the ten week run that will be
- 38:04Speaker 2: by your side. They're gonna get a ring too, he was,
- 38:07Speaker 2: because they're on this pursuit too. I'll make sure I
- 38:09Speaker 2: buy every single one of them rings because they're sacrificing
- 38:12Speaker 2: too for you. See funny, he had one of those
- 38:14Speaker 2: great moments where he repeated everything he said twice. Were
- 38:17Speaker 2: like he said it for impassion and then let me.
- 38:19Speaker 1: Make sure that you hear it again. And he had notes.
- 38:22Speaker 1: He did, He had notes.
- 38:23Speaker 2: He was fired up and his feet were dangling off
- 38:25Speaker 2: the training table.
- 38:27Speaker 1: A was at it. Super Listen.
- 38:28Speaker 3: If you're a Knicks fan, it's super cool. Every part
- 38:30Speaker 3: of this is gonna be cool, just like when the
- 38:32Speaker 3: Bucks won. Alice hoping up every part of anything. Someone
- 38:35Speaker 3: to say, but how many people give speeches like that
- 38:37Speaker 3: really quick that we never hear.
- 38:39Speaker 1: About because it'll work true? Okay, that's all my uh Well,
- 38:42Speaker 1: the one thing about this is that the Knicks snapped
- 38:44Speaker 1: a long drought, and just as when the Bucks did.
- 38:47Speaker 1: You get the stories of the longest droughts championship in
- 38:49Speaker 1: sports history. Sacramento Kings seventy five years, Atlanta Hawks sixty
- 38:55Speaker 1: eight years, Utah Jazz fifty one years, Clippers fifty five years,
- 39:02Speaker 1: and the Phoenix got aspiration though Phoenix Suns fifty seven years.
- 39:06Speaker 1: NFL Arizona Cardinals seventy eight years. Oh my, Detroit Lions
- 39:11Speaker 1: sixty eight years.
- 39:13Speaker 2: They had one I really enjoy sixty eight years. Yeah,
- 39:16Speaker 2: I'm gonna make sure that we continue. You wonder they
- 39:18Speaker 2: won in fifty seven. There are some teams that will
- 39:20Speaker 2: never win, you know, you wonder.
- 39:22Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans sixty four years, Los Angeles Chargers sixty two years,
- 39:25Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns sixty one years, Buffalo Bills sixty years, Atlanta
- 39:30Speaker 1: Falcons sixty years, Cincinnati Bengals fifty eight years, New York
- 39:34Speaker 1: Jets fifty seven years, Minnesota Vikings fifty seven years. They
- 39:39Speaker 1: beat the Browns in the sixty nine NFL Championship game,
- 39:41Speaker 1: the last one before the merger. Well they but there
- 39:43Speaker 1: was a Super Bowl that year, and the Dolphins that
- 39:46Speaker 1: fifty two years. So and then you get to MLB.
- 39:49Speaker 1: The Guardians in town tonight, yes, seventy seven. This I'm
- 39:53Speaker 1: sad for us though. Milwaukee Brewers fifty seven years.
- 39:56Speaker 2: All right, all right, come on, this is the year
- 39:58Speaker 2: and Brewers and Padres in lockstep of fifty seven years.
- 40:01Speaker 2: Hold on, please, So fifty seven years no World Series?
- 40:06Speaker 2: Come Somebody remind me as to when the Milwaukee Braves
- 40:09Speaker 2: won the World Series.
- 40:10Speaker 1: Nineteen fifty seven. Come on. Oh, and then the NHL
- 40:14Speaker 1: by the seven years in franchise, the franchise in the NHL,
- 40:19Speaker 1: the Toronto Maple Leafs fifty nine years, and they wanted
- 40:22Speaker 1: the worst. Buffalo Sabers fifty five, Vancouver Canucks fifty four,
- 40:25Speaker 1: and the Philadelphia Flyers. The broad Street Bullys, once a
- 40:28Speaker 1: dominant dynasty, have gone fifty one years without a Stanley thought.
- 40:32Speaker 1: They just won.
- 40:32Speaker 2: So that's a lot of long ass droughts, and Mitch
- 40:35Speaker 2: Marner was so close to being able to stick the
- 40:38Speaker 2: dagger in those maple leafs.
- 40:40Speaker 1: Fans on Bah love ball. All right, So I think
- 40:44Speaker 1: tomorrow we'll be talking about Cooper Pratt and Brewers Guards
- 40:47Speaker 1: and we'll continue the honest Watch. Nice that the NFL
- 40:49Speaker 1: has receded into the hedges for just a little while,
- 40:52Speaker 1: although I guess they're trying.
- 40:54Speaker 2: Yeah, they're trying desperately with a supplemental draft and a
- 40:56Speaker 2: George Pickens storyline. Hey, Cooper Pratt, don't go over four tonight.
- 40:59Speaker 2: We want people to celebrate. We will see tomorrow five peace.
- 41:06Speaker 3: Mm hmm
