- 0:10Speaker 1: the Super Bowl Champion twelfth Man Sports Radio ninety three
- 0:14Speaker 1: point three KJR FM.
- 0:20Speaker 2: Well, great morning to you here live from Seahawks training
- 0:24Speaker 2: camp at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. It's great to
- 0:27Speaker 2: have you on this Thursday. My name is Chuck Powell,
- 0:29Speaker 2: and we are with you for the next four hours.
- 0:31Speaker 2: When I say we, it is Ashley Ryan back at
- 0:34Speaker 2: the studio. My name is Chuck Powell, and we've got
- 0:37Speaker 2: a very busy show planned for you today, which I
- 0:40Speaker 2: will detail with what's on tap coming up here in
- 0:42Speaker 2: a moment. But I gotta tell you because it's just
- 0:46Speaker 2: the kind of host I am. I pull back the
- 0:49Speaker 2: curtain to let you know what's going. We're supposed to
- 0:52Speaker 2: act like this is a seamless operation, and yet it
- 0:55Speaker 2: always it isn't always a seamless operation. I'm going to
- 0:58Speaker 2: tell you right now for you listening Ashley, who's back
- 1:02Speaker 2: in studio, It was five point fifty eight thirty five.
- 1:06Speaker 2: We had a minute twenty five to get on the air,
- 1:10Speaker 2: and we did not have it. There was no equipment
- 1:12Speaker 2: on this table, Ashley.
- 1:14Speaker 3: Not a bit.
- 1:15Speaker 2: We had less than a minute and a half. And
- 1:18Speaker 2: Terry Ryan, who also doubles as an indie pit crew
- 1:21Speaker 2: and you know he operates the jack you know down
- 1:25Speaker 2: there for Jimmy Johnson, or at least he did for years.
- 1:28Speaker 2: He obviously's the best engineer in the business. And he
- 1:32Speaker 2: got us on the air in a span of about
- 1:35Speaker 2: thirty five seconds. Wowive, that is not even an exaggeration.
- 1:41Speaker 3: So we got here to the to the facility.
- 1:45Speaker 2: Which we've done numerous times before, and for whatever reason,
- 1:50Speaker 2: they locked the closet to where our equipment was, and
- 1:54Speaker 2: then we couldn't get a hold of anybody here at
- 1:56Speaker 2: the Seahawks to unlock the equipment. And finally somebody showed
- 2:01Speaker 2: up about five minutes ago and Gay and we finally
- 2:05Speaker 2: got the key. And Terry wasn't bothered at all. I mean,
- 2:08Speaker 2: Terry's sitting here telling me and complaining about Softy wrapping
- 2:11Speaker 2: the headphones the wrong way, and I'm like, Terry, We're
- 2:14Speaker 2: on the air.
- 2:14Speaker 3: I'm panicking.
- 2:15Speaker 2: He's not, you know, I got sweating my crotch, and
- 2:19Speaker 2: Terry's just sitting here just you know, ho hum soft.
- 2:24Speaker 3: He's wrapping the headphones the wrong way again.
- 2:26Speaker 2: And I looked at Terry and I'm like, Terry, we
- 2:29Speaker 2: are on the air in like forty five seconds.
- 2:31Speaker 3: And he looked at me like, what's the big deal.
- 2:33Speaker 3: I've done this a million times.
- 2:35Speaker 2: And sure enough he got us on the air within
- 2:37Speaker 2: like fifteen seconds after that, and so we made it.
- 2:40Speaker 3: We didn't make it, and our penultimate.
- 2:43Speaker 2: Second to last Seahawks training Camp morning show, we keep
- 2:47Speaker 2: our record intact.
- 2:48Speaker 3: We got on air on time.
- 2:50Speaker 4: Ashley, ooh, and you know it's interesting.
- 2:52Speaker 5: This is what's funny. So I had no idea you
- 2:54Speaker 5: guys had a problem. I was like, well, I haven't
- 2:55Speaker 5: heard anyone yet. And I kind of had just I
- 2:57Speaker 5: was over here just getting highlights, kind of off in
- 3:00Speaker 5: my own world, and then I was like, well, I
- 3:02Speaker 5: looked over I was like, we've.
- 3:03Speaker 4: Got a minute, and I haven't heard anyone yet.
- 3:06Speaker 3: And so I didn't send you a text.
- 3:07Speaker 5: Yeah, but I never have my phone in my bag.
- 3:10Speaker 5: I had it in my bag this morning and I
- 3:12Speaker 5: was and so I was going to grab it right
- 3:14Speaker 5: as you came on and said hello. But as I
- 3:16Speaker 5: was coming up today, I thought, man, it's been really
- 3:20Speaker 5: nice not.
- 3:20Speaker 4: Having issues getting on the air lately.
- 3:24Speaker 3: I thought that.
- 3:26Speaker 5: Alistair coming up, and then I was like, I don't
- 3:29Speaker 5: even know why. It was so random. I never think
- 3:31Speaker 5: that because I'm not going to jinx it.
- 3:35Speaker 2: It so reminds me because now KJR people are spoiled
- 3:39Speaker 2: with terry like a career in this business, like the
- 3:44Speaker 2: engineer sometimes like makes or breaks the station. And when
- 3:48Speaker 2: I worked in radio for the first time, and I
- 3:51Speaker 2: had no idea like a national radio, local radio was different.
- 3:55Speaker 2: I did a small when I started in this business.
- 3:57Speaker 2: It was in a little town called Alton, Illinois, and
- 4:00Speaker 2: it was a pretty seamless operation. But then again it
- 4:02Speaker 2: was a small operation and we had a man for
- 4:05Speaker 2: every job even back then, you know, back in the day.
- 4:09Speaker 3: Well then I.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Moved to Vegas and I did national sports radio and
- 4:13Speaker 2: it was my first exposure to real radio, right, and
- 4:18Speaker 2: our equipment was like broken every day, like it would
- 4:24Speaker 2: became comical. There was an issue almost every day. And
- 4:29Speaker 2: we had this engineer by the name of Joe Sands,
- 4:32Speaker 2: who at the time I thought was just the most
- 4:35Speaker 2: bumbling fool in the world. Like there were jokes like
- 4:39Speaker 2: I was expecting him to short out the entire Las
- 4:42Speaker 2: Vegas strip at times, you know, because our equipment, you know,
- 4:46Speaker 2: would be on the fritz so frequently I thought he
- 4:49Speaker 2: would cross wires in the entire Las Vegas Boulevard would
- 4:53Speaker 2: be out one day when we drove up, and and
- 4:56Speaker 2: and so he and then later I got to know
- 4:59Speaker 2: the operation a little more, I got to know him
- 5:02Speaker 2: a little more, and he remains one of my favorite
- 5:04Speaker 2: people I've ever met. And I got to understand how
- 5:08Speaker 2: much was on his shoulders to keep our twenty four
- 5:12Speaker 2: hour radio station afloat, pretty much by himself back in
- 5:16Speaker 2: the day. So I had a full appreciation for it,
- 5:19Speaker 2: but much more so for Terry that somehow keeps us
- 5:24Speaker 2: on the air and keeps this operation singing, because there's
- 5:27Speaker 2: always something to deal with. So today today it was
- 5:31Speaker 2: there's the door is locked, there's no key, And because
- 5:34Speaker 2: we get up at an ungodly hour, no one from
- 5:36Speaker 2: the Seahawks was at work yet, so we couldn't even
- 5:39Speaker 2: open the closet.
- 5:40Speaker 3: But we did it.
- 5:41Speaker 2: We got here on time. Here we are, we got
- 5:44Speaker 2: a radio show for you. And I thought we'd spend
- 5:47Speaker 2: five six minutes giving you a little inside behind the
- 5:50Speaker 2: curtain information about how valuable engineers are.
- 5:53Speaker 3: How about it?
- 5:54Speaker 4: Yeah, well done, Terry, well done.
- 5:58Speaker 2: He was just just Bill gabbing to me about the
- 6:02Speaker 2: conversations we were earlier. And I'm sitting here like counting
- 6:06Speaker 2: the seconds, like we're on the air in seven minutes,
- 6:09Speaker 2: we're on the air in four and a half minutes.
- 6:12Speaker 2: I'm on the air in two minutes. And Terry's just
- 6:15Speaker 2: like not even breaking a sweat. He knew, he knew
- 6:18Speaker 2: the entire time, he had exactly the amount of time,
- 6:21Speaker 2: with like thirty four seconds to spare, no period he needed.
- 6:24Speaker 4: It's like he's been doing this job for a long time.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Oh, thank god for him. I would have had no
- 6:31Speaker 2: clue what to do in that situation. I would have
- 6:33Speaker 2: ended up yelling at people. That would have been my solution.
- 6:35Speaker 4: And then probably but there would be no one there,
- 6:38Speaker 4: so you just yell at yourself.
- 6:39Speaker 2: Well yeah, and then but then you know, then I
- 6:41Speaker 2: would have yelled at a Seahawks employee and then probably
- 6:43Speaker 2: gotten in trouble with the Seahawks and got the old
- 6:45Speaker 2: station in trouble with the Seahawks because I'm sitting there
- 6:49Speaker 2: yelling at somebody with road rage, and so fortunately we
- 6:55Speaker 2: got the best in the business, and here we are
- 6:57Speaker 2: on the airwave. So great to have you with us
- 6:59Speaker 2: here this as we get started here from Seahawks training camp.
- 7:03Speaker 2: And I do want to talk a lot of football today.
- 7:05Speaker 2: I'm not really sure there's a point to talk much
- 7:07Speaker 2: baseball anymore. We'll get to the Mariners here in a
- 7:10Speaker 2: little bit, and the Mariners will certainly be a topic
- 7:14Speaker 2: here today. But I sort of held my funeral for
- 7:17Speaker 2: them on yesterday show, so for some reason, it didn't
- 7:21Speaker 2: bother me as much last night to watch them blow
- 7:24Speaker 2: an early lead. Finally had an early lead, they found
- 7:27Speaker 2: a way to blow it and then end up kind
- 7:29Speaker 2: of getting blown out by baseball terms by a final
- 7:32Speaker 2: score of ten to five. But we'll go over that
- 7:34Speaker 2: with Mariners morning after today. Mark's the start of the
- 7:37Speaker 2: preseason schedule. Yeah, they don't count the Hall of Fame
- 7:40Speaker 2: game as a preseason game, so we have NFL preseason
- 7:44Speaker 2: football tonight, and so it's back in our lives, Ashley.
- 7:49Speaker 2: We have real football six games being played tonight, even
- 7:53Speaker 2: though Aaron Rodgers doesn't really call it real football. It'll
- 7:56Speaker 2: be on our televisions. Let's put it that way this
- 7:59Speaker 2: evening for the first time this year. And so this
- 8:03Speaker 2: truly is I mean, it's one thing to have training
- 8:06Speaker 2: camp open. It's another thing for me, Ashley, to have
- 8:09Speaker 2: football on your television for an entire evening. Now it
- 8:13Speaker 2: is football season.
- 8:14Speaker 4: It's here, Yeah, it really is.
- 8:15Speaker 5: And that's somebody sent me a message yesterday like, oh,
- 8:18Speaker 5: don't worry, football season's here.
- 8:20Speaker 4: You don't have to watch baseball anymore. It's like, I'll
- 8:22Speaker 4: get there.
- 8:22Speaker 5: And then I thought, oh, wait, preseason starts tomorrow, but
- 8:25Speaker 5: until the Seahawks play. I mean, I'll put preseason on
- 8:28Speaker 5: tonight and I'm gonna be pretty excited just to have it, because,
- 8:30Speaker 5: as we talk about all the time, fall is the
- 8:32Speaker 5: best season on earth, and part of that is because
- 8:35Speaker 5: you get the best part of baseball season and you
- 8:36Speaker 5: get football season on top of the best weather there
- 8:39Speaker 5: ever has been.
- 8:40Speaker 3: Right, but we're gonna have the baseball part of it
- 8:42Speaker 3: looks like stripped from our.
- 8:44Speaker 5: Yeah we are, we are, So I will fully embrace
- 8:46Speaker 5: the football part while still remaining stupidly optimistic about the
- 8:51Speaker 5: baseball part.
- 8:51Speaker 2: Yeah, and you should. As we talked about yesterday. Even
- 8:54Speaker 2: with the loss last night, Stranger things have happened. This
- 8:58Speaker 2: team has done strange things that come back from now
- 9:02Speaker 2: five and a half game deficit in the division. But
- 9:05Speaker 2: I'll say this about the Mariners. They do have three
- 9:08Speaker 2: against the Astros coming up, and I mean, it looks
- 9:11Speaker 2: like sweep or die. It's kind of what it feels like.
- 9:15Speaker 2: But if you do sweep them, then lo and behold,
- 9:19Speaker 2: you're you know, right back within striking range with a
- 9:22Speaker 2: month to play and maybe some real momentum on your side,
- 9:26Speaker 2: and not just one game victory that floats out there.
- 9:31Speaker 2: But I mean, that's pretty much your chance, I think.
- 9:35Speaker 2: I think that's fair to say that's pretty much your
- 9:37Speaker 2: chance to pull this thing off is when you start
- 9:40Speaker 2: that series against the Astros Friday. That if you can
- 9:44Speaker 2: pull off a sweep, man, that's a powerful jump in
- 9:47Speaker 2: the standings and gives you still a month to now
- 9:50Speaker 2: make up what two and a half games, or maybe
- 9:52Speaker 2: it'll be one and a half games, We'll see based
- 9:55Speaker 2: on what happens today.
- 9:57Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, hold out, hope.
- 9:59Speaker 2: I still hope we have this beautiful time of year,
- 10:02Speaker 2: that crossover time of the year. I still hope we
- 10:05Speaker 2: have meaningful baseball to watch for the next five weeks.
- 10:09Speaker 2: But it's not looking like that. And yet those who
- 10:14Speaker 2: are trying to give us therapy, or maybe they're just
- 10:17Speaker 2: people that love football and want us to stop talking
- 10:20Speaker 2: about baseball, because those people out there exist too.
- 10:24Speaker 3: Well.
- 10:25Speaker 2: We will have football, certainly to distract us, and not
- 10:28Speaker 2: just on the back burner. Very soon, it's gonna move
- 10:30Speaker 2: to the front burner here here, if it hasn't already.
- 10:35Speaker 2: But there is something about that first Thursday preseason. And honestly,
- 10:41Speaker 2: I'm I'm right now, and this happens to me every year,
- 10:44Speaker 2: and I don't think it's ever gonna change. I'm fifty
- 10:46Speaker 2: five years old and I've been a sports fan since
- 10:49Speaker 2: i was three, so this is over a half century
- 10:54Speaker 2: of being a football fan and getting fired up for
- 10:57Speaker 2: first preseason games. And Ashley, I had absolutely convince myself that, man,
- 11:02Speaker 2: I'm really gonna dig in this year. I've done it
- 11:04Speaker 2: thirty five years in a row. I'm really going to
- 11:06Speaker 2: dig into preseason. I really want to know all the
- 11:08Speaker 2: nuts and bolts. I want to see what all these
- 11:09Speaker 2: rookies are doing. And I'll tune in tonight and I'll
- 11:14Speaker 2: watch one and a half series, and then I'll flip
- 11:18Speaker 2: over to baseball, whether it's the Mariners or not.
- 11:20Speaker 5: Right, Well, yeah, yeah, they're in the morning, so you
- 11:22Speaker 5: might get a good game tonight.
- 11:24Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah.
- 11:25Speaker 2: I mean, I'm still going to be a baseball fan, certainly,
- 11:29Speaker 2: no matter what the Mariners do. But the point is
- 11:32Speaker 2: that every year I get fired up like NFL preseasons
- 11:36Speaker 2: on tonight, and I will lose my interest in the
- 11:39Speaker 2: very first preseason game. I don't know if it will
- 11:42Speaker 2: be a series and a half, but it'll be at
- 11:45Speaker 2: most a quarter and a half. And yet I'm still
- 11:48Speaker 2: gonna raise the flag NFL preseasons here, get excited for
- 11:53Speaker 2: six games tonight.
- 11:54Speaker 3: Sea Hawks debut one Saturday.
- 11:57Speaker 2: But it really is a rough experience for me to
- 12:00Speaker 2: get through, and it gets rougher every year. My excitement
- 12:03Speaker 2: level building up to it remains the same every year
- 12:06Speaker 2: as a football fan, and yet I cannot remain sustained.
- 12:11Speaker 2: I mean, I keep score of every single Seahawks game
- 12:14Speaker 2: by hand, yes, and certainly I have no trouble doing that.
- 12:19Speaker 2: I actually really enjoy doing that during the regular season.
- 12:25Speaker 2: Every single week preseason games, I do the same thing,
- 12:28Speaker 2: and it's even more important because we still do post
- 12:31Speaker 2: game shows here and it's pretty much all we talk
- 12:35Speaker 2: about the day after the game. So I try to
- 12:37Speaker 2: take even more notes in the preseason. But I'm gonna
- 12:40Speaker 2: tell you something. It's a chore.
- 12:42Speaker 4: Yeah, oh I bet, yeah, yeah.
- 12:44Speaker 3: I want to quit doing that.
- 12:48Speaker 2: By no labor, even for the Seahawks, by no later
- 12:51Speaker 2: than the second quarter, and by the fourth quarter, man,
- 12:54Speaker 2: it gets the penmanship gets sloppy, the note taking gets derelict,
- 13:00Speaker 2: and and usually I do fade out before the final
- 13:04Speaker 2: gun goes off. I'll like, with a minute and a
- 13:08Speaker 2: half to go, I'll just I can't write anymore. I'm done.
- 13:11Speaker 2: So the same thing's gonna happen starting tonight, and the
- 13:15Speaker 2: same thing's gonna happen Saturday. But nonetheless, it is a marker,
- 13:20Speaker 2: it's a marker. It's a substantial marker that football season,
- 13:25Speaker 2: real football.
- 13:26Speaker 3: Is almost here.
- 13:26Speaker 5: No, And I completely agree, And I do think the
- 13:28Speaker 5: way that they do the preseason, having six games tonight
- 13:31Speaker 5: and three games tomorrow, and having whatever it is, six
- 13:34Speaker 5: games or seven games on Saturday, it's great because you're
- 13:37Speaker 5: getting everyone and you know, involved, everyone excited. You you know,
- 13:40Speaker 5: here we get a couple of games that we get
- 13:41Speaker 5: to watch tonight, So you'll, you know, go watch your
- 13:45Speaker 5: series and a half and then turn it off, and
- 13:47Speaker 5: then you can come back for the second.
- 13:48Speaker 4: Game and watch a series and a half and turn
- 13:50Speaker 4: it off.
- 13:50Speaker 5: And it's a nice it's kind of you don't have
- 13:54Speaker 5: to jump all the way into football season. You get
- 13:56Speaker 5: to get your toes wet and you get to start
- 13:58Speaker 5: getting it. This is what's arts to build my excitement,
- 14:01Speaker 5: because yeah, I don't really care about preseason other than
- 14:04Speaker 5: the fact that it is my marker for Okay, football
- 14:07Speaker 5: is almost here, like fall is almost here. Here we go,
- 14:10Speaker 5: let's get excited. So it's your way to kind of
- 14:12Speaker 5: get in there and dip your toes in and say.
- 14:14Speaker 4: All right, we got a little football. I get to
- 14:16Speaker 4: watch a little football tonight.
- 14:18Speaker 3: Right. Yeah.
- 14:19Speaker 2: Yeah, but even that, I mean, there are actually some
- 14:22Speaker 2: interesting things when you think about it, that will debut
- 14:26Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six tonight, And yet you do have
- 14:30Speaker 2: to take just one step back. You got to dig
- 14:32Speaker 2: one layer deep before you recognize, oh, that's really not
- 14:35Speaker 2: much at all? Is it like Green Bay Pittsburgh Aaron
- 14:39Speaker 2: Rodgers is taking on the Packers? Yeah, tonight but he's
- 14:45Speaker 2: probably not going to play, you know, I mean, and
- 14:48Speaker 2: it is it y Pittsburgh, it's not in Green Bay,
- 14:51Speaker 2: so it's not like he's returning to Green Bay. But
- 14:53Speaker 2: he's already gone on record saying I don't want to
- 14:56Speaker 2: play preseason because it's not real football. Well, when when
- 15:00Speaker 2: the quarterback is said, that's what he said this week,
- 15:04Speaker 2: that's not like.
- 15:05Speaker 3: Me digging up something from the past.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy said earlier in in training camp that he
- 15:11Speaker 2: wants Aaron Rodgers to play in the preseason. I think
- 15:14Speaker 2: that's before Aaron Rodgers showed up and had a conversation
- 15:17Speaker 2: with him. Aaron Rodgers said this week, no, I don't
- 15:20Speaker 2: want to play preseason because it's not real football. So
- 15:23Speaker 2: I don't know what's gonna win out tonight, and so
- 15:26Speaker 2: we'll find out if Mike McCarthy gets his way or
- 15:30Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers gets its way. And it's pretty much the
- 15:32Speaker 2: only compelling thing about the Steelers Packers matchup, because it's
- 15:37Speaker 2: not like some return of Aaron Rodgers to Green Bay.
- 15:40Speaker 2: And he's already said it's not real football. So really
- 15:44Speaker 2: the only interesting thing about Packers Steelers tonight will be
- 15:48Speaker 2: decided before the game even starts.
- 15:50Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go. That is when you put it
- 15:54Speaker 4: that way. Boy can't wait to tune.
- 15:56Speaker 2: In, right, you know, Chargers Houston. Yeah, I mean Mike
- 16:03Speaker 2: McDaniel new offense. Is he gonna unlock Justin Herbert finally,
- 16:08Speaker 2: who's a very good to great quarterback but you know,
- 16:12Speaker 2: obviously hasn't won a playoff game and constantly just gets
- 16:17Speaker 2: abused for seventeen games of the year. So we bring
- 16:20Speaker 2: in a offensive coordinator like Mike McDaniel, what is he
- 16:24Speaker 2: gonna unlock with the Chargers? So that storyline Chargers Houston,
- 16:29Speaker 2: and then you take one step back and they're like, well,
- 16:31Speaker 2: wait a minute, they're gonna give like ten percent of
- 16:33Speaker 2: their playbook. They're not gonna expose Herbert at all. He
- 16:36Speaker 2: might not even play. So yeah, theoretically, it's exciting to
- 16:41Speaker 2: see what the Chargers offense is gonna look like under
- 16:44Speaker 2: their new offensive coordinator.
- 16:45Speaker 3: But we're not gonna get any idea of that tonight.
- 16:48Speaker 5: None, No, I know, And that is I think, I
- 16:50Speaker 5: mean as much as yeah, we all get excited and
- 16:52Speaker 5: we tune in and then we're like, oh wait, that's right,
- 16:54Speaker 5: it's preseason.
- 16:55Speaker 4: I forgot what preseason.
- 16:57Speaker 5: You know, sometimes I think, I know I do, like,
- 17:00Speaker 5: especially for Seahawks, I'll kind of let my excitement of
- 17:03Speaker 5: the fact that I get to see the Seahawks make
- 17:06Speaker 5: me forget that I barely get to see the Seahawks.
- 17:09Speaker 4: You're not seeing what they're really gonna put out right.
- 17:11Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, same with it, same with every everybody.
- 17:14Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's it is funny because you'll tune in
- 17:16Speaker 5: then you're like, oh.
- 17:17Speaker 2: That's right, Oh that I mean, and then you can
- 17:20Speaker 2: convince yourself of that every time. I mean, Cincinnati thinks
- 17:23Speaker 2: they're going to win the Super Bowl this year. All right, Well,
- 17:25Speaker 2: let's see Joe Burrow hit the ground running.
- 17:27Speaker 3: Is he playing.
- 17:30Speaker 2: Tennessee San Francisco. I suppose that's interesting from the standpoint
- 17:34Speaker 2: for us. We might see twenty more forty nine ers
- 17:37Speaker 2: get hurt tonight. You know, that's a that's a possibility,
- 17:40Speaker 2: not something to actually get excited.
- 17:43Speaker 3: About right now.
- 17:43Speaker 4: It'd be a storyline, Chuck, it.
- 17:45Speaker 2: Would be a storyline, though it's been a storyline all
- 17:48Speaker 2: camp long. I will say, if there is one thing
- 17:52Speaker 2: tonight that is real and is going to happen, and
- 17:55Speaker 2: that maybe as football fans we can sink our teeth
- 17:58Speaker 2: into I heard just this morning that Fernando Mendoza is
- 18:02Speaker 2: gonna play a lot tonight for the Las Vegas Raiders.
- 18:04Speaker 4: Oh that's so interesting.
- 18:06Speaker 2: Raiders versus Cardinals. The number one pick in the draft,
- 18:09Speaker 2: who's already been declared. He's not gonna be the season
- 18:12Speaker 2: one starter, at least the opening day starter, but you
- 18:16Speaker 2: will get to see him take his first pro football snaps,
- 18:20Speaker 2: and he's gonna take more than one. He's gonna take
- 18:22Speaker 2: more than a series, that sounds likes He's gonna get
- 18:24Speaker 2: substantial playing time. So I think, yeah, I think that's
- 18:28Speaker 2: very interesting that I think that is something as a
- 18:31Speaker 2: football fan that is more than just Oh.
- 18:34Speaker 3: That's right, it's just preseason.
- 18:35Speaker 2: No, I think that's something worth checking out for a
- 18:38Speaker 2: little while tonight. So yeah, on one end, it's very exciting,
- 18:42Speaker 2: and I fall into the trap every year that NFL
- 18:45Speaker 2: preseason is here. But on the other hand, it won't
- 18:48Speaker 2: take us very long to realize. God, I can't wait
- 18:51Speaker 2: till the regular season start, I know.
- 18:53Speaker 5: And now it's gonna feel like years between this, between
- 18:57Speaker 5: today and the start of the preseason and between and
- 19:00Speaker 5: until the.
- 19:01Speaker 4: Start of the actual regular season. That's gonna feel like
- 19:03Speaker 4: a long time.
- 19:04Speaker 3: All right, let's find out what's on tap for the
- 19:06Speaker 3: rest of the show. Please.

- 19:24Speaker 3: I'm not kidding.
- 19:25Speaker 2: I was so panicked that we weren't gonna get on
- 19:28Speaker 2: the air on time. I had plenty of time to
- 19:30Speaker 2: get water. I was just you know, and I didn't
- 19:32Speaker 2: get water. And I'm like, why didn't I grab a water? Oh,
- 19:36Speaker 2: that's right, because I was crapping my pants.
- 19:38Speaker 4: Yeah, right, because I pooped myself earlier.
- 19:41Speaker 2: I was busy pooping myself before the show started because
- 19:45Speaker 2: I didn't think we're gonna get on air on time.
- 19:48Speaker 2: Seahawks take on the Cowboys Saturday at five o'clock. The
- 19:51Speaker 2: preseason schedule get started for Mike McDonald and crew, of course,
- 19:55Speaker 2: with hard Knocks being a huge part of our training
- 19:58Speaker 2: camp experience this year, all sorts of game footage that
- 20:02Speaker 2: they'll grab for that for episode three. Training camp also
- 20:07Speaker 2: includes Terry and Arnold watch I don't really have anything
- 20:11Speaker 2: new to add to it, but maybe Greg Bell will
- 20:13Speaker 2: At seven o five this morning, Husky's Camp continues, and
- 20:17Speaker 2: we're gonna spend some time on that with Scott Eckland
- 20:20Speaker 2: today at nine o'clock, and I can report we will
- 20:23Speaker 2: be doing at least one show. Well, yes, I think
- 20:29Speaker 2: at Husky's Camp next week, and I think Cam Cleveland's
- 20:33Speaker 2: going to be a part of the operation as well.
- 20:36Speaker 2: So excited to have him, and not just for one segment,
- 20:40Speaker 2: maybe for.
- 20:40Speaker 3: The entire show.
- 20:42Speaker 2: So that would be next week Husky's Camp coverage show
- 20:46Speaker 2: right here on your favorite morning show. It better be
- 20:49Speaker 2: your favorite morning show. The NBA, the Lakers sold yesterday
- 20:53Speaker 2: for twelve point five billion dollars and so very strange,
- 20:59Speaker 2: by the way, because that's the Dodgers owner and also
- 21:02Speaker 2: the Sparks owner, and yet for whatever reason, he only
- 21:06Speaker 2: owned that team for like a year and a half
- 21:08Speaker 2: two years.
- 21:09Speaker 3: And decided to flip and sell it.
- 21:12Speaker 2: A lot of people reading into that as he needed
- 21:14Speaker 2: some money and he needed it fast, and that's why
- 21:18Speaker 2: he did that.
- 21:19Speaker 3: I hope he's penniless.
- 21:23Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna be.
- 21:25Speaker 2: I don't I don't either but I hope that. Yeah,
- 21:28Speaker 2: I hope he's destitute, and I hope that the Dodgers
- 21:31Speaker 2: crumble into the ABYSS, not as an organization, but he
- 21:36Speaker 2: just has to sell off every player for pennies on
- 21:39Speaker 2: the dollar. I know there's no reality to that, but
- 21:41Speaker 2: I hope that's the case. Russell Westbrook retired yesterday, of course,
- 21:46Speaker 2: drafted by the Sonics, and it really does highlight just
- 21:50Speaker 2: how long we've been out without the Sonics that he
- 21:53Speaker 2: retires yesterday having been drafted by the team once upon
- 21:58Speaker 2: a time and never play for the team. The New
- 22:01Speaker 2: York Yankees won over the Mariners ten to five, the
- 22:05Speaker 2: final score in yesterday's game. So that's six straight tough
- 22:10Speaker 2: ones for the Mariners and they are now five and
- 22:14Speaker 2: a half games back, I think, six back in the
- 22:17Speaker 2: tough one column, and so fifty six and sixty five.
- 22:22Speaker 2: It might not have been flushed this season, but it
- 22:25Speaker 2: sure feels like it's heading that direction. We will have
- 22:29Speaker 2: Mariners Morning After coming your way next on Sports Radio
- 22:33Speaker 2: ninety three point three.
- 22:33Speaker 3: kJ A RFM. We just want to say this for
- 22:36Speaker 3: your own benefit, because we care about you. Yeah, we'd
- 22:39Speaker 3: like for you to seek some help.
- 22:40Speaker 4: I think I need it.
- 22:42Speaker 7: We'd like for you to figure out exactly it's fair,
- 22:47Speaker 7: what what is troubling you? And maybe it can feel
- 22:50Speaker 7: maybe you can just balance out some of these emotions
- 22:52Speaker 7: that will make more sense to you in your head.
- 22:54Speaker 5: The nice thing is I can make it easy. What's
- 22:56Speaker 5: troubling me? It's the Mariners, that's it. Yeah, and the
- 22:58Speaker 5: fact that I can't quit them. And I was getting
- 23:00Speaker 5: asked yesterday, why are you optimistic? What's your reasoning? I said,
- 23:03Speaker 5: because I'm an idiot, Like what more do you want?
- 23:04Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm just I'm dumb. I'm stupidly optimistic.
- 23:08Speaker 4: Leave me alone.
- 23:10Speaker 3: And we don't have time to get into it now.
- 23:12Speaker 3: But whenever I heard that you felt for a little
- 23:19Speaker 3: while last night that if I just lay in bed,
- 23:21Speaker 3: the team will win.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 23:24Speaker 3: See, that's stuff we got to get through in counseling.
- 23:26Speaker 4: I know, I literally thought about it. When we started losing.
- 23:30Speaker 4: I was like, damn it. Should we go back to
- 23:31Speaker 4: the bed.
- 23:32Speaker 2: What's your first memory, Ashley? I don't know what kind
- 23:37Speaker 2: of dreams do you have?
- 23:39Speaker 4: Oh, they're terrible.
- 23:40Speaker 5: You don't want to know those We get into that.
- 23:42Speaker 5: That is a show, nobody you'll never recover from.
- 23:44Speaker 4: I'll tell you that.
- 23:45Speaker 3: How's your relationship with your mother?
- 23:48Speaker 4: Great? Actually?
- 23:50Speaker 3: Yeah great?
- 23:53Speaker 2: Well we're gonna have to get into that a little
- 23:54Speaker 2: later on in the show. But it's time for Marioner's
- 23:59Speaker 2: Morning After. It's our daily recap, and we'll do this
- 24:01Speaker 2: to the bitter end. It's a Mariner's postgame show, but
- 24:05Speaker 2: we just do it today after the game, a highlight,
- 24:07Speaker 2: a SoundBite, a preview of what's going on today as
- 24:11Speaker 2: the Mariners do play a day game at Yankee Stadium
- 24:13Speaker 2: where they will try to win a game out of
- 24:16Speaker 2: the series, try to snap their six game losing streak,
- 24:19Speaker 2: and try to remind us that there is still a
- 24:21Speaker 2: chance to climb back into this playoff race, this divisional race.
- 24:27Speaker 2: But it is not feeling or looking good at this point.
- 24:30Speaker 2: I mean, it's one thing to lose repetitively one way
- 24:36Speaker 2: after another after another after another, you know, so you
- 24:40Speaker 2: can just pinpoint, well, there you go. We just can't
- 24:43Speaker 2: score runs. We hate it, but there you go, that's
- 24:47Speaker 2: why we can't win, or at least at least we
- 24:50Speaker 2: know what.
- 24:50Speaker 3: The problem is.
- 24:51Speaker 4: The terrible but.
- 24:53Speaker 2: Then last night, very first inning against a decent pitcher
- 24:58Speaker 2: and will warn the Mariner jump all over him. In
- 25:01Speaker 2: the first inning, Randy rose Arena hits another home run
- 25:05Speaker 2: to knock in Cold Young, and then Julio Rodriguez came
- 25:09Speaker 2: to the plate already up too.
- 25:11Speaker 3: Yep, Julio, this one is to right. This one sends
- 25:17Speaker 3: Jones back.
- 25:18Speaker 2: He watches it fine the second deck, and all of
- 25:22Speaker 2: a sudden, the Mariner's slumbering offense is walking up two
- 25:26Speaker 2: homers in the first inning. Julio Rodriguez three hundred and
- 25:31Speaker 2: seventy eight foot shot. Carl Ravitch. Former current ESPN employees
- 25:38Speaker 2: on the call. Yeah, the national broadcast last night, and
- 25:44Speaker 2: certainly they were like, Oh, what's wrong with this Mariners offense?
- 25:47Speaker 2: Looks perfectly fine to me. They jumped out to a
- 25:51Speaker 2: three to nothing lead. Bryce didn't have it again last
- 25:54Speaker 2: night though. Bryce Miller, who started for the Mariners, he
- 25:57Speaker 2: wasn't terrible, but he did a allow that run to evaporate.
- 26:01Speaker 2: The Yankees scored once in the second. The Mariners jump
- 26:05Speaker 2: back in the third to make it to.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Four to one.
- 26:08Speaker 2: Yankees come right back in the third to make it
- 26:10Speaker 2: four to three. Mariners score in the fifth to make
- 26:13Speaker 2: it five to three. Yankees come right back in the
- 26:16Speaker 2: bottom of the fifth and they tie it up against.
- 26:18Speaker 3: Miller at five to five. So that's where you stood.
- 26:22Speaker 2: You scored five runs, You finally put some runs on
- 26:25Speaker 2: the board, but then your starting pitcher, who were supposed
- 26:28Speaker 2: to be able to count on, does not get the
- 26:31Speaker 2: job done. But he did work through the sixth inning
- 26:33Speaker 2: and probably was his best inning, to be honest. He
- 26:37Speaker 2: looked like he was right back on his a game
- 26:39Speaker 2: in the sixth through some nasty pitches, puts a goosegg
- 26:42Speaker 2: on the board, and then we get to the bottom
- 26:45Speaker 2: of the seven still tied at five, and that guy
- 26:47Speaker 2: that we wanted to pitch last night, Gabe Spier, but
- 26:50Speaker 2: we found out later was not available. Well apparently his
- 26:54Speaker 2: back was fine heading into last night's game, and so
- 26:58Speaker 2: Dan Wilson calls upon Gabe Aspire to work the bottom
- 27:02Speaker 2: of the seventh inning, and he just simply did not
- 27:04Speaker 2: have it last night. He gives up three runs three
- 27:06Speaker 2: it's two walks, just a terrible outing for a guy
- 27:10Speaker 2: that's been really good all season long, and that was it.
- 27:14Speaker 2: I mean, once this team falls behind two three runs,
- 27:17Speaker 2: they haven't really shown the fight or muscled to come
- 27:20Speaker 2: back from that, and the Yankees end up kind of
- 27:22Speaker 2: blowing out the Mariners last night ten to five, Ashley,
- 27:26Speaker 2: after it had looked so good for so long.
- 27:28Speaker 5: Yeah, and it just, I mean just such a disappointment
- 27:31Speaker 5: in a different way because it was so promising early
- 27:33Speaker 5: on and we were I mean, I was like thinking, gosh,
- 27:37Speaker 5: look at this offense. They figured they'd had a talk,
- 27:39Speaker 5: they did something, they came together, and this is gonna
- 27:42Speaker 5: be great, and look at us go And then it
- 27:44Speaker 5: was like, okay, yeah, we gave up one run. That's
- 27:46Speaker 5: all right, we can we can exchange a three run
- 27:48Speaker 5: inning for a one run inning.
- 27:50Speaker 4: I'll work with that.
- 27:51Speaker 5: And then you know, our run production dwindled, but still
- 27:55Speaker 5: five runs should be enough with his pitching staff to win.
- 27:58Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's just that's the front straight thing is.
- 28:00Speaker 5: It's like one night the pitching staff is dominating, but
- 28:03Speaker 5: the offense can't do anything. And then the next night
- 28:06Speaker 5: the offense decides, okay, we're here to play, and the
- 28:08Speaker 5: pitching staff's like, we're going to take the day off.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Well, that's when you know you're in a slump, like
- 28:12Speaker 2: there's just nothing is going, nothing goes your way, it
- 28:17Speaker 2: feels like and that's where they are. I mean they're
- 28:19Speaker 2: not playing good baseball. But also like when you know,
- 28:24Speaker 2: you score, your pitcher gives up one run and you
- 28:28Speaker 2: can't score a run, or you score eleven and your
- 28:30Speaker 2: pitchers give up twelve. I mean that's just that's just
- 28:34Speaker 2: where they are. I mean, they are just they are
- 28:36Speaker 2: just inventing ways to lose as a collective at this point.
- 28:41Speaker 2: And that's now six tough one tonight's in a row
- 28:45Speaker 2: for the Mariners, who fall an unsightly nine games under
- 28:49Speaker 2: five hundred rows. Now on the season at fifty six
- 28:52Speaker 2: and sixty five and five and a half games back
- 28:56Speaker 2: of the Houston Astros for first place in the division.
- 29:00Speaker 2: Ice Miller last night actually given some offense, but he's
- 29:03Speaker 2: not pitching as well as he was earlier in the year.
- 29:06Speaker 3: Here he is after the game.
- 29:08Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, good first inning, and yeah, the offense,
- 29:12Speaker 8: you know, came out swinging.
- 29:13Speaker 9: It got as early lead. I wouldn't able to hold it.
- 29:17Speaker 8: And you know, it was one of those days again
- 29:20Speaker 8: where like I feel like I threw the ball well,
- 29:22Speaker 8: but I just couldn't execute, Like I didn't make the
- 29:24Speaker 8: pitches when.
- 29:24Speaker 9: I needed to. You know, all the runs that they
- 29:26Speaker 9: scored fund of me. It was with two with two outs,
- 29:30Speaker 9: and you know, I just got to be able to
- 29:31Speaker 9: finish innings.
- 29:32Speaker 8: Either we you know, get two quick outs and then
- 29:36Speaker 8: something happens, or you know, another inning we had a
- 29:40Speaker 8: leadoff double that then we get two outs and then
- 29:42Speaker 8: we don't finish. It's like I got to execute with
- 29:46Speaker 8: two outs, especially with two outs and two strikes.
- 29:48Speaker 9: You know, I felt like if if I make make
- 29:51Speaker 9: a better pitch to Jones and the third, then we
- 29:54Speaker 9: get out of that inning with no runs. But left
- 29:58Speaker 9: the ball down and he got to it.
- 30:01Speaker 8: And then in the fifth once again we got got
- 30:04Speaker 8: two quick outs and then it was in a span
- 30:06Speaker 8: of four pitches, you know, a home run and two doubles.
- 30:10Speaker 8: So I feel like, you know, really the last month
- 30:15Speaker 8: for me personally, it feels like I'm right there almost
- 30:19Speaker 8: every game and it's just like a pitch here, a
- 30:21Speaker 8: pitch there, and then I don't execute and that you
- 30:23Speaker 8: know they're they're getting it, get into it. So hopefully,
- 30:27Speaker 8: hopefully it turns quick because you know, we don't have
- 30:29Speaker 8: I don't have a lot of time to you know,
- 30:32Speaker 8: ride this point out.
- 30:33Speaker 3: Help.
- 30:34Speaker 2: It's going to require like a ten twelve game winning
- 30:36Speaker 2: streak at this point. You got to catch fire at
- 30:41Speaker 2: this point, and they're just not playing well. They're just
- 30:44Speaker 2: inventing new ways to lose. And last night it was
- 30:48Speaker 2: not being able to keep the Yankees in check. A
- 30:51Speaker 2: team that has been bad offensively the entire second half.
- 30:54Speaker 2: This isn't the typical Bronx Bombers. This is a team
- 30:58Speaker 2: that has been as bad as the Mariners offensively in
- 31:01Speaker 2: the second half of the season, and yet they scored
- 31:05Speaker 2: ten runs against a really good pitcher and Gabe Spire
- 31:08Speaker 2: two really good pictures last night. And look, I realized
- 31:13Speaker 2: that I've been hard on Dan, and I know a
- 31:15Speaker 2: lot of you have been hard on Dan. I don't
- 31:17Speaker 2: can't blame him for going to Gabe Spire last night.
- 31:22Speaker 2: I don't know how healthy Gabe Spire was based on
- 31:25Speaker 2: the reports from the previous evening, but I assume that
- 31:29Speaker 2: they felt good about him going out there. He did
- 31:31Speaker 2: not look like typical Gabe Spire, but that's the move
- 31:36Speaker 2: in the seventh inning to go to Gabe in that situation,
- 31:38Speaker 2: and he just didn't have it. Like I said, they
- 31:40Speaker 2: invent ways to lose right now. If I were to
- 31:44Speaker 2: be critical though, because I kind of feel like, now
- 31:47Speaker 2: I'm stuck in that mode when you were up three
- 31:51Speaker 2: and you got Colt Emerson, caw got actually on base three.
- 31:55Speaker 4: Times, Say that was one positive at least.
- 31:57Speaker 2: Yeah, and he started and we got on three times
- 32:00Speaker 2: with nobody out three times in a row, and Cole
- 32:04Speaker 2: Emerson right now, I mean he can't hit Nope. I
- 32:07Speaker 2: mean he's a great young player. He's a great young prospect,
- 32:10Speaker 2: a great young talent, and I think next year he's
- 32:12Speaker 2: gonna have the leap forward that Cole Young had this year.
- 32:15Speaker 2: I think that's going to occur for him. But right
- 32:17Speaker 2: now he's a liability. He struck out four times last night.
- 32:21Speaker 4: And swinging at everything it seems like, and I know.
- 32:24Speaker 2: You're up three runs, but that's when you put the
- 32:28Speaker 2: how about bunting him with two guys? He can bunt,
- 32:31Speaker 2: It's one thing that he's proven he can do, so
- 32:34Speaker 2: right now he can't hit the broadside of a barn,
- 32:36Speaker 2: So why not tap into another one of his skills.
- 32:39Speaker 2: And I'm not a big bunting guy, I'm really not.
- 32:43Speaker 2: But the fact that we don't ever use it, I
- 32:47Speaker 2: think is just a waste.
- 32:49Speaker 3: So I'm gonna talk more about it. In depth later.
- 32:51Speaker 2: I'm also going to talk about Ashley Ryan's new bed
- 32:54Speaker 2: habits a little bit later on in the show. I
- 32:56Speaker 2: don't have time to get into it further, but you
- 32:58Speaker 2: had three opportunities cold Emerson to lay down a bun
- 33:01Speaker 2: and get a guy into scoring position. Three Raleigh at
- 33:04Speaker 2: Matts in a row, and you let him swing away
- 33:07Speaker 2: every single time, and he struck out every single time.
- 33:10Speaker 2: I mean, to me, that's a mistake and that's on Dan,
- 33:16Speaker 2: but I'm not gonna blame him for that loss.
- 33:19Speaker 3: The loss last night gets attached to Bryce not being
- 33:22Speaker 3: able to hold the lead and to Gabe Spier for
- 33:24Speaker 3: being just bad last night. So ten to five is
- 33:27Speaker 3: the final score. They'll finish the series today ten thirty
- 33:30Speaker 3: five start. Logan Gilbert starts for the Mariners, and left
- 33:34Speaker 3: hander Max Freed will go for the Yankees.
- 33:36Speaker 2: We'll talk more about some of this stuff later on
- 33:38Speaker 2: in the show coming up next. I know I'm doing
- 33:40Speaker 2: it two days in a row, but it's not my fault.
- 33:42Speaker 2: You're the sick ones. You're the ones that love OPQ
- 33:45Speaker 2: Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM, just yes, tell us.
- 33:49Speaker 4: About other people's quarterbacks.
- 33:51Speaker 3: Chuck no get that away from me. I don't care
- 33:55Speaker 3: if you think you smell like CJ. Stroud. Gosh, why
- 34:02Speaker 3: why are you so interested in this?
- 34:06Speaker 2: It's Chuck and Ashley with you, and it is time
- 34:08Speaker 2: for a little opq Uh yeah, I know you.
- 34:11Speaker 3: You are interested in other people's quarterbacks. So let's get
- 34:16Speaker 3: us rifle through the list.
- 34:18Speaker 2: Here a little bit I mentioned earlier, I didn't think
- 34:20Speaker 2: Aaron Rodger that Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy were at
- 34:24Speaker 2: odds over whether or not he would play in the preseason.
- 34:26Speaker 2: McCarthy said earlier in camp he wants him to play.
- 34:29Speaker 2: Rogers said earlier this week, No, I don't want to
- 34:31Speaker 2: play in any preseason games.
- 34:33Speaker 3: It's not real football. Why would I risk myself?
- 34:36Speaker 2: Well, apparently it's a game time decision, so get ready.
- 34:40Speaker 2: McCarthy and Rogers already hate each other before the first
- 34:44Speaker 2: preseason snap because they're going to have a game.
- 34:48Speaker 3: Can you believe that a.
- 34:49Speaker 2: Game time decision in a preseason game in an argument
- 34:53Speaker 2: already over and it's just a power struggle. It doesn't
- 34:56Speaker 2: matter if Aaron Rodgers plays in this game. Is one
- 34:59Speaker 2: hundred years old. He's played a thousand football games in
- 35:02Speaker 2: his life. He doesn't need to play in this. This
- 35:04Speaker 2: is Mike McCarthy saying, no, I brought you here. I
- 35:08Speaker 2: carry the big stick. I'm the head coach. You're gonna
- 35:10Speaker 2: do what I say, and Roger's saying no, I've never
- 35:13Speaker 2: done what anyone says. So we have a standoff already
- 35:17Speaker 2: and there hadn't even been a preseason snap.
- 35:18Speaker 4: I can't wait to see.
- 35:19Speaker 3: It's awesome.
- 35:20Speaker 4: Yeah, I love it.
- 35:20Speaker 5: I'm like, who's gonna win this one? And I have
- 35:23Speaker 5: a feeling that's probably gonna be Rogers.
- 35:26Speaker 3: I do too.
- 35:27Speaker 2: I do because I think he's just that bullheaded uh
- 35:31Speaker 2: well and not even bulletded, just like he just does
- 35:34Speaker 2: things his.
- 35:34Speaker 3: Way, right. I didn't come back here to jump when
- 35:37Speaker 3: you tell me to, you know, when you snap your fingers. No,
- 35:42Speaker 3: I believe there's no.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Reason for me to play in the preseason, and I
- 35:45Speaker 2: stand on what I believe I always have and I'm
- 35:48Speaker 2: not going.
- 35:49Speaker 3: To play in the preseason. So I it's hilarious.
- 35:53Speaker 4: I love it because it's right exactly.
- 35:57Speaker 2: And then I do want to mention Jade and Daniels.
- 36:00Speaker 2: I don't know, I'm starting to get into the impression
- 36:02Speaker 2: that this.
- 36:03Speaker 3: Guy might be a problem.
- 36:05Speaker 2: Uh, Jayde and Daniels apparently has mythed that his number
- 36:09Speaker 2: didn't as being used by another.
- 36:12Speaker 3: Quarterback at LSU.
- 36:13Speaker 2: Yeah, and so he has told them you can't use
- 36:16Speaker 2: my image and likeness the name ever again. I mean,
- 36:21Speaker 2: I don't know if there was a conversation. I don't
- 36:22Speaker 2: know what happened. But Jade Daniels obviously at LSU was
- 36:27Speaker 2: a Heisman Trophy winner and he accomplished a lot for
- 36:30Speaker 2: that program. But I don't know what the rules are
- 36:33Speaker 2: for who they Maybe you have to be a four
- 36:34Speaker 2: year player at LSU.
- 36:36Speaker 3: I don't know. Does Joe Burrow get his jersey retired?
- 36:39Speaker 5: They haven't retired Jo's either. They just also have been
- 36:42Speaker 5: like they haven't. Let I don't think anyone really use it.
- 36:45Speaker 5: But this is also a defensive player that they were gonna.
- 36:47Speaker 5: It's not even an offensive player.
- 36:49Speaker 2: It doesn't, you know, But I'm starting to think that
- 36:53Speaker 2: maybe like Jade and Daniels, I know Brandon Ayuk was
- 36:57Speaker 2: the problem, but even he called out Jade and Daniels.
- 37:02Speaker 2: And there's been an issue with Jayden Daniels and his
- 37:05Speaker 2: mom since going all the way back to Arizona State
- 37:08Speaker 2: and probably prior to that, And I don't know if
- 37:12Speaker 2: he's just been told you're the best at everything, baby,
- 37:16Speaker 2: and you don't let anybody tell you what to do
- 37:19Speaker 2: so much in his entire life that now he's just
- 37:22Speaker 2: got a skewed version of just how great he is.
- 37:28Speaker 2: But to be this worked up and this bothered when
- 37:31Speaker 2: your number hasn't been retired and Joe Burrow's number hasn't
- 37:34Speaker 2: been retired.
- 37:35Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 37:35Speaker 2: There seems to be a lot of smoke here. There
- 37:37Speaker 2: seems to be a problem that people seem to have
- 37:42Speaker 2: a problem that are in Jade and Daniels vicinity with
- 37:45Speaker 2: something about Jade Daniels, And maybe we're starting to see
- 37:50Speaker 2: through the cracks.
- 37:50Speaker 3: And all of that right now.
- 37:52Speaker 2: If I'm Washington, you know, two years ago, I thought, man,
- 37:56Speaker 2: we have just landed a whale.
- 37:58Speaker 3: We have got a guy a bit around for the
- 38:00Speaker 3: next fifteen years.
- 38:02Speaker 2: This guy's amazing. And then last year not so amazing.
- 38:05Speaker 2: And I know he had injuries, but even when he
- 38:07Speaker 2: was healthy, not so amazing. And then this offseason it
- 38:11Speaker 2: just feels like it's been nothing but negative stories about
- 38:14Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels, and it just feels like anybody that's in
- 38:17Speaker 2: his vicinity has some sort of issue with him. So,
- 38:21Speaker 2: I mean Terry McLaurin asked for a trade this week,
- 38:24Speaker 2: like what's going on with Jaden Daniels right now. So
- 38:28Speaker 2: maybe they don't have the face of the franchise that
- 38:31Speaker 2: they were sure they had two years ago. There might
- 38:34Speaker 2: be some issues there that run deep. We'll see all
- 38:37Speaker 2: right headlines next plus Greg Bell Sports Radio ninety three
