  Speaker 4: Oh all right, it wasn't six am Eastern. Oh hey,
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: I'll take that any day.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: On the show today, I'm gonna tell you everything I'm
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: hearing about the Seahawks schedule up to now. The official
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: schedule to be released at five pm. Story this morning
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: up at the Newstribune dot Com on what i'd have
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: heard up to this point, of course, headlined by Christmas Day,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: first Christmas game in Seahawks history. Wow, that's what happens
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: when you win a Super Bowl. Also the first Friday
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: game since nineteen eighty five. Well, the NFL is just
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: putting games on every day. Oh, I know, We're gonna
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: have Wednesday Night weekly Wednesday Night Football, and the Seahawks
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: have one of those, of course, Wednesday. The opener September ninth.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: It's apparently reportedly gonna be against the New England.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Patriots, which is a surprise.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: I guess they think the Rabel story will just vanish
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: into thin air.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: They're probably gonna trade for aj Brown. We're gonna have
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: a busy offseason.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, busy, to say the least.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: It surprised me. I thought it was gonna be the Bears.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be the Patriots apparently, and then the Rams
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: twice in the last three weeks, is what I'm being told.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: The Rams hosting the Seahawks in Week eighteen. The NFL
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: loves to do that to put division matchup they think
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: will determine a division on the final week of the season,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: with the potential of it being the final game of
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: the season on Sunday Night Football. So while Dave Softi
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Maler is saying he's here in seven primetime games, it
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: could be eight if they flexed RAMS hosting Seahawks Week eighteen.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: If it's for the NFC West Chris, those two games
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Rams Seahawks will by far the most attractive in the
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: inventory of games this season regular season. It's why it's
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: one of the reasons why the Seahawks did not go
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: to are not going to Australia to play the Rams
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: in the first game, And then of course once the
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Seahawks won the Super Bowl, they weren't going to open
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: in Australia. But the networks have been haggling, fighting and
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: circled those Rams Seahawks games after the three epic ones
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: last year, including the NFC Championship game. That's why it's
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: on Christmas. That's why it's going to apparently end the season.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Twice in the last three weeks Ram Seahawks, it appears,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm being told. Four coming to Dodge Text,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I'm right off top of the show. Season ticket holders, Seahawks,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: I'd like to hear from you. Are you going to
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: go to the Christmas game. Some of you don't live
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: next to Lumenfield, and perhaps it's an inconvenience to, say
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the least, to break up your family and leave two
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: three three o'clock on Christmas afternoon for a five point
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: fifteen kickoff on Christmas Eve ning, not Eve, but evening
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Christmas night. I'll be there. I have no choice, but
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: at least I'm not at an airport. I've done that enough,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: right mentioned yesterday ten forty five, we're gonna talk about
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: the best baseball player not in the game today ever,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: the best baseball player ever.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: At ten forty five we'll talk about that.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Eleven o'clock we're going to talk live with Steve Whitch.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Friend is Chris's NFL network. Got a lot to talk
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: about in the NFL, of course, with him, Steve Whitch,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask about Aaron Rodgers's tired saga making Pittsburgh wait,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the Mike Rabel's situation in New England. Lots to talk
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: about with Steve White. At eleven o'clock, we'll read back
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: your text often to the Coma Dodge text line at
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: four nine four five at eleven thirty, like we do
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: every day. At that time, what the thing we're not
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: going to talk about today, the NBA.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Draft being rigged? I see that.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: The text line is just blown up with people with Chuck.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Can we please quit talking about this? You and you
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: apparently the glue is out of the hole on that subject.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: So no, we're not gonna talk about that.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: We start.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Chuck asked me, kid, do you think the rig
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: and we had a brief discussion before he went back
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: on air.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: What's the fascination with that?
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Uh? Like I said, fingers tilted on the scales every
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: once in a while to get the Knicks or to
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: get certain teams. But okay, run to the Knicks, all right,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: cal Rawley, Man, we've been talking about this for a week,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: more than a week. Let's put him on the injured
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: list already so he can just save himself from himself.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: We don't need to see him wincing in pain in
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: a game in May, which is what we saw last night.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: In the eighth inning. We was trying to complete a
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: double play as shortstop to home to first double play
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: that would have prevented the Astros go ahead run in
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: the bottom of the eighth, and he just didn't throw
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: the ball. It looked like he might have slipped, but
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: to me, it looked more like he was pained in
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: his side and didn't want to throw the ball because
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: he had hurt too much to do it and didn't
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: want to throw it in the right face, so he
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: held onto the ball. It led to a sacrifice fly
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: by Jose Altuve on the next at bat. And then
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: after the game, people the writers in Houston covering the
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Mariners asking Dan Wilson, He's like, well, we'll have to
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: see tomorrow. Well they did see tomorrow. Tomorrow's today. Mariners
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: have a day game today, and in the pregame in Houston,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: the Mariners announced, yes, for the first time in cal
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Rawley's career, he's heading to the injured list right oblique strange.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Johnny Parreta, who had already been up backfilling when Rally
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: had missed, had been sitting out for three games about
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: a week and a half ago. Parade's back up from
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: TRIPLEA Tacoma. He's gonna have a time share of the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: time being from Mitch Garver.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: I was it.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Ferrara is also back to reliever, back to the bullpen
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: off his paternity lead. That was quick, by the way,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: maybe he must have been born like a day that
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: he left. He's already back. I think you get up
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: to a week or something, and by MLB rules.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Dan Wilson on.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Cal Rawley this morning in Houston, quote, the good news
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: is that he's got a chance to get himself back,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: to get himself healthy, and to come back with a
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: lot of the season left. Hmm. And I think that's
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: really the silver lining here. How much did we say
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: that Chris put him on a ten game il. He's
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: still going to be one hundred and ten games left
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: in this Mariner season. They are not going to win
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: or lose the American League West while he's on the
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: injured list. They aren't, and we keep saying it. The
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: West is not going anywhere. Two games over five hundred
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: is first place. The Mariners are two games under five
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: hundred after losing last night. That's the first time in
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: ten meetings with the trash Cans, by the way, that
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: they lost to Houston. But Raleigh could miss a month
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: and the division's not going anywhere. Rolly could miss a
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: month and a half, Rowley can missed of the All
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Star break, and I think they're still winning the division.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Their pitching is that good and the rest of the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: division is that bad? Which man, all this we said
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: a week ago just shut him down, and now he
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: obviously aggravated it to the point of having to go
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: in the injured list. He should have been playing in
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the first place. But they were deferring to him, saying, well,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: how you feeling. Of course, I'm I want to go.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: He's a grinder, he's a catcher, he's a team leader.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: He's not a bag out of that, Chris.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: No, not too many players will.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Will he take the route of sitting out to get healthier.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: That's just not in their DNA. They believe that they
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: can play through it, and a lot of them can,
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: and some of them will. You can go back and
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: look at all the injuries in baseball, hockey. Guys play
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: through stuff, even in the NBA. Tyber's Halliburton, even in
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: the NBA, really Tybre's Halliburt towards Achilles, you know, trying to.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Be uh, that's one good example. He played.
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: It was out in the finals, but yeah, he saw
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: the opportunity, could care less about the repercussions, anything that happens,
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: And unfortunately towards Achilles.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: If this is the NBA, Chris, if this is the NBA,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: cal Rawley would be off for four months, he'd.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Be probably he'd be in Tahiti if he will like
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: Paulo who completely tore his oblique, he missed I think
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: four months and that season Orlando stunt. This year, they
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: are healthy and you saw what they were able to do.
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: So yeah, a lot, not too many players are gonna
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: sit there and be like, I'm not sitting out right,
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Like this game means a lot to me,
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: my teammates like, I understand, I'm heard, but give me
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: a shot.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Let's go.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: And usually when a player says that, you kind of
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: fold to that. Now, if you're a really if you're
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: an elite trainer, you're probably gonna be like, nah, man,
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: I'm not putting my name on this. You can sit
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: out or figure something else out. But I don't blame
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: kl for wanting to fight it out every night. It's
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: just unfortunate that it popped up again and they had
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: to take this measure of putting him down and saying, hey,
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: not putting him down, letting him rest.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Wow, that's not really bad. Letting him rest.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: And to your point, Greg, it's ten games ten games,
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: he'll He'll be back before you know it. And this
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: won't change much unless the Mariners do something astronomically horrible.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Even if in ten games, if they lose ten games,
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: lose ten games in the standings though, even if they're
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: just ten games straight, the A's will go five and
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: five and five or I'm not going to put that
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: into atmosphere. All I'm saying is solid move. Now you
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: can get him healthy, he can get back to the
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: swing of things. Literally, I bet it was Brawley's move.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: I bet Cal it is even better. That's that just
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: ruins my entire I'm just.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Saying, no, I bet because he couldn't throw the ball
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: to first base to complete the double play last night
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: that led to the run. The next batter, Altwovey hits
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: a fly ball to Senate that would have been third out.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: I forgot a Super Bowl champion, Sam Donald.
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: He played through a little something something you know said
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: they shot him up and he made it, so I
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: get it. But to your point about Cal, yeah, maybe
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: he did. Was like, it's a rap y'all. I can
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: I can't even do my job effectively.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Once it affected the team to the point, I mean
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: oh for thirty eight affected the team too, but not
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: to the point that I mean last night, it directly
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: contributed to the loss that he couldn't finish that double play,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: and so I mean that's why the pastor the trash
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Cans took the lead in the bottle of the eighth.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: So I think that's what a tipping point was where
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: he said that's it and then he was pinched hit
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: for by Brendan Donald in a ninth inning, and you
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: know that wasn't his choice. Yeah, probably not, No, So
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I mean that's that's when I said, oh, he's going
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: on the injured list because there's no way. And they've
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: deferred to him to this point. I'm sure they said,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: can you go. He's like, I can't do this anymore.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: I can't even throw to first base. I'm not going
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: to swing. I'm out. Even if it's two weeks, even
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: if it's twenty months, twenty weeks, I should say, I
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: still think this when a division. They need him for
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: September October, they don't need him in May. And it's
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: unfortunate that the Mariners let him go on his own
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: accord for as long as they did. And apparently it's
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: re injured him to the point that he now is
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: on the injury list for the first time in his career,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: but again May fourteenth. So what give him the mental
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: The mental break will be as big as the physical break.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And this was the only way to get him have
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: a mental break is to put him on the injured list.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Last night, a day after he had reached base three
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: times and ended that oh for thirty eight, skid Roley
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: went over four with two strikeouts.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Last night.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: He's back down to one sixty one. So he's gonna
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: have to see that for the next ten days on
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: the injured list. Nothing you can do about that. But
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: he will get the mental break as well as the physical.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: And I think this is a week and a half
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: too late, but I've already been banging that drum for
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: a while. I saw Softy last night saying that, and
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I'm like, welcome to the show, Softy.

• 13:10
  Speaker 4: Obviously, Donovan Mitchell, he's had some really good Mitchellchise, Evan Mobley,
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: they got some, they got some players. Man, that's a
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: good team over there. So it's about time. But now
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: it's about closing it out at home, because if it
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: goes to game seven, I'll take I think a lot
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: of people will take the Pistons to rebound, especially if
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: they want on the road. You get to play against
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: back at home with your fans. Yeah, this is a
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: Cleveland had like obviously, this is their Game seven. They
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: don't you can't envision going back to Detroit and trying
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: to get another win.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Game six in Cleveland tomorrow night with the Calves up
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: three games too on the top seed of Pistons up next.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: All I know and I've heard so far in the
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Seahawks schedule for two that twenty six season, the text
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: line four nine, four to five one. Are you gonna
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: go to the Seahawks Christmas Day game? Is a season
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: ticket holder up now from outside Philadelphia from Westwood Won
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: an update on the PGA Championship. Welcome back to a
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Thursday show at the Greg Bell Show at Christopher Kidd.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: We're here every ten am to noon every weekday on
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: ninety three point three KJRFM eleven o'clock. Steve White from
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: NFL Network will join us to talk about all things
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: around the league. On schedule release Day, five PM today,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Dave Softy Maler Nick fanab Be live on the air
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: revealing what the Seahawks schedule is.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Some of it already leaked out.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: You know about the Patriots going to be the season
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: opening game on Wednesday, September ninth at Limenfield in the
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: rematch of Super Bowl sixty.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: This Christmas Day game.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Dave Softi Maler our own Dave soft Y Maller the
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: first report last night the Rams Seahawks Christmas Night five
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: point fifteen kickoff on Fox Television. When I saw that,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: the first thing I thought of all, we're going to
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: have a short week for both teams in one of
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: the marquee games of the season that could help likely
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: will help determine the NFC West title. Well, the NFL
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: is apparently throwing the Seahawks a bone on that I'm
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: hearing and Dave Softie mal are also hearing. The Seahawks
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: are going to play the previous Saturday before Christmas instead
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: of Sunday, So instead of four days between games, gonna
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: be five. So I mean, it's incremental, but it matters when,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: trust me, on a normal Sunday game, guys can't walk
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: until about Thursday. You go around the locker room and
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: dudes are barely getting up out of their seated. So
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: a fifth rest day is helpful. And it looks like
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the NFL is going to schedule the Seahawks I'm hearing
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: at Philadelphia on Saturday. It'll be a two pm Local
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: time start five pm back in Philly on Saturday, the
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: December the nineteenth, six days before the Christmas Day game
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: against the Rams here in Seattle. That's the first Christmas
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Day game in Seahawks history, the second Friday game, the
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: other one being in nineteen eighty five against the Broncos
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: at the Old Kingdome. Softie's been saying it it could
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: be as many seven primetime games, that includes three in
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: a row at Denver on a Thursday night in week six,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: when's the City at home Week seven on a Sunday
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: Night NBC game with Patrick Mahomes assuredly they think maybe
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: fully recovered from his acl by week seven. Then the
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Seahawks would host Chicago at home on a Monday night
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: in Week eight for the third consecutive primetime game, and
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: then at Week thirteen Monday Night at home against the Cowboys.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: And as I said in the last segment, if that
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Week eighteen game is indeed Seahawks at Rams, is what
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: I'm hearing. Two of the last three being Seahawks Rams
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: meetings to the last three games. If that Week eighteen
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: game is Seahawks at Rams, it very well could get
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: flex to the last game of the season Sunday night,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: so the Seahawks could open the season with the very
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: first game on Wednesday, September the ninth on NBC and
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: also finish it with the last game of the regular
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: season for the NFC West title at the Rams in Inglewood.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: In week eighteen, Bear should have been the open night
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: opponent at Loomenfield. In my opinion, they're going with the
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Patriots in the Super Bowl rematch, and there was on
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: the text line someone from the two six, and of
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: course the NFL is gonna put the Patriots because they
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: want as many eyes and people talk about that game
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: and variable and the whole thing as possible, more the better.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: I just people canna watch anyway, I was gonna says
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: game of the season.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: I think that would be the case. But what if
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: it was the Bears. How many eyes would be on that?
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: With Caleb Williams and that offense and Ben Johnson and
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: that story as you mentioned, with he been being a
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: candidate for the head coaching job and now he's going
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: up against this defensive minded guy. They faced each other before,
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: but now these two obviously are better teams and they're
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: better coaches now. So I thought that was just written
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: for itself. I really didn't see the Patriots getting that nod, but.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Maybe six' three on That thursday night At christmas time
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: a couple of seasons.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Ago McDonald's first.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: Season, yeah that was Quite the game was maybe, off
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: but it. WAS i, mean if you're a defensive, guy,
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: yeah you loved. It like that was just a. Masterclass Poor.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: Caleb he was running for his life running backwards at
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: that not running. Forward he was running backwards and trying
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: to make just impossible, throws including.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: On the last play of the game for The bears
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: when we intercepted it on fourth, down and that was
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: an all out blitz By mike McDonald's he sent.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: That he sent ten and a half. Guys, yeah he
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: never does.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: THAT i remember talking To Lender williams after that game
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: In chicago and he, SAID i couldn't believe he called.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: It it was something that like they ran in mini
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: camp and they engage.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: Eight for all My madden, folks that's what coach McDonald
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: called and.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: It worked one day game In chicago that.
• 18:29

• 21:08
  Speaker 1: CONFIRMED i haven't written it in The News. TRIBUNE i

• 21:14
  Speaker 1: radio But i'm hearing The seahawks preseason schedule will include

• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Joint, Practices So i'll.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Pass it's not Gonna it's not gonna Be if they're
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: going to joint, practice is gonna be In, nashville not
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: In Kansas city or In Saint, Joseph missouri where The chiefs.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Practice i'm hearing the first preseason game is gonna be at?
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Home maybe Against.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: Dallas, oh all their preseason games are teams that they
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: play this season right In dallas.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Plays its first preseason game typically on The west. Coast
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: why because they start training camp In, Oxnard, California because
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: it's five thousand degrees In texas in Late, july so
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: they do it on the. Coast it's a beautiful. Setup
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: it's right on the water In. Oxnard and so they
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: often stay in either The Bay area or they play
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: In Los angeles or then this, Case seattle for their
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: first preseason. Game since you just come up the coast.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: From how do they pick The hall Of fame?
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Game that often has to do with who's being inducted
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: into The hall Of fame that. Year, ah if a
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: team has a legend that So cardinals And, panthers who
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: are those? Guys, YEAH i don't think this year it does.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: That that often, does but not. This, okay well at their,
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: POINT i didn't even know until you just said that.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: This WELL i was.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: CURIOUS i was, like, HEY i never figured that, Out
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: like what is the?
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Process?
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Okay so that's usually that's a, tip but it's not
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: doesn't always always, happen. Right They often they do ask,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: teams would you be willing to do? It because that
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: means you have to start training camp. Earlier, yes so
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: they they don't just shoehorn or strong arm teams into that,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: one got?
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: It so whoever wants to do, it if you do, it,
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: Cool if they approach.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Teams it's not an open bidding on. It but, yeah
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: they do a run it by teams and, say, hey
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: we're thinking to putting in The hall Of fame. Game
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: it means you have to do training camp obviously a week.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Earlier. Okay.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Sure in, general when you see the schedule come out,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: today it'll have the eighteen, games but then it'll have
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: the three preseason games as a, footnote maybe after the
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: initial wave of excitement and announcement over the. Schedule the
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: STANDARD nfl math is go minus fifteen days from the
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: first preseason, game and that's when training camp. Starts the
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: collective bargaining agreement says you cannot start a training camp
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: earlier than fifteen days before the first preseason. Game so
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: all teams go on that they don't give them any.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Extra they want all the days they can, get and
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: the legue allize you no earlier than fifteen days before
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: the first preseason. Game so that's the tip off of
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: when training camp will. Begin in renting At seahawks headquarters,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: again anticipating it'll be open to, fans, again anticipating it
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: won't be as many as in the. Past again anticipating
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: that you'll have to go To seahawks dot com and
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: registered with the team to get a bus from rent
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: and landing and come up and watch The seahawks sit
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: on the burns by sitting on the berm and then
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: getting the autographs. Afterwards more to come on, That but
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: if you're doing some, planning and those of us who
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: cover this industry for a, LIVING i always, Say, okay
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: what days my summer are going to? END i go
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: fifteen days back from the first preseason. Game we've already
• 24:21

  Speaker 1: we had on this week saying that The patriots have
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: addressed their offensive, line their left tackles healthier than he
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: was in The Super. Bowl The seahawks must have been
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: tipped off by watching film That Johnson Will johnson was
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: hurt the left tackle because they went after him with
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: STUNTS x games, Blitzes Emon warry blitz off that end
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: a couple times for pressures and. Sacks they knew something
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: was amiss with the left. Tackle of course he'll be.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: Healthier they first round pick is a. Tackle we'll see
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: what Different patriot team shows. Up apparently On September night

• 26:16
  Speaker 1: all the, time what are the? Teams what do they
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: really care about with this schedule? Release there's two things
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: they look. At when is the bye. Week that's. Important
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: optimally they, go of, course one in week's eight or,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: nine midway point of the. Season not every team but
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: can have. That of, course they would rather have it
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: earlier than. Later why if they go, later like week
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: twelve or, thirteen for, instance into the Early, december which
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: is the latest you can have, it then you've done
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: the entire training camp and the first dozen or so
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: games without a, break and that takes a. Toll guys
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: just are gassed and they're beaten up for the biggest
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: stretch of games of the season In december Into. January
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: so if they had to have it slanted to one
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: side of the, other they'd rather go too early than too. Late, okay,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: yeah you get a Break, september Late, september Early. October
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: you got a long, stretch, yes, afterwards but sure better
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: than the. Alternative the other thing the players keep attention
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: about the bye week is it's their only week to
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: be completely. Gone the bye week these days Is monday To,
• 27:18

  Speaker 1: when that date is so they can book their travel
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: plans and get the hell out Of. Dodge that is a,
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: big big deal to those. PLAYERS i, mean it's like
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: day out of, school the last day of, school that
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: last game before the bye. Week they're running out of
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: the locker room of the stadiums before the bye begins
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: because the coaches give them the entire week off until
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: the Following, monday So sunday night actually for. Meetings but,
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: yeah the bye weeks have beg. Done the other thing
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: is when are the division? Games because those really are
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: two game swings every time you play. Them THE nfl
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: loves to push them back later in the season to
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: determine division, races as we just, mentioned with The rams
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: And seahawks potentially plan two of the last three. Weeks

• 27:58
  Speaker 1: in the Season cardinals could have been the first, game
• 28:00
