• 1:03
  Speaker 7: You can reach us at 877-794-1973, thenicholaylaw.com, talk and text line.
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Fun discussions today.
• 1:09
  Speaker 7: Doing our own version of ranked choice voting, which isn't
• 1:13
  Speaker 7: a thing here, but it is elsewhere.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: But it's basically Top 5 Tuesday. Top 5 Tuesday. And
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: it's given us a chance, Drew, to really give some
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: broad reaches and kind of check in with a lot
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: of things. Because I do believe there's a lot of
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: sports that have gotten neglected over the last month. Because
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: how could you possibly be focusing on a whole lot
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: of other things than just how good the Brewers were?
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: That's a great point.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: It's kind of a bad time for the Bucs to
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: do a rebuild and all that. But maybe it's a
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: good thing, too. Or you could say the perfect time. Yeah,
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: that's a good point. Obviously, there was no attention on them. Or,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: you know, a pretty decent stretch for the Packers. You know,
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: obviously we were preoccupied, but this is probably the best
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: football the Packers have played. Maybe not this week, but
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: the last couple weeks and getting in there. So, yeah,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: there's definitely, you know, those sports that got neglected. You know,
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: it is NBA season. It is basketball season now in college.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: It is Admiral season. You know, all those things are
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: happening now as we enter November. And the weather starts
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: to turn. Boy, it's dark out there. That really smacks
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: you in the face. When you leave, you know, I
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: know daylight savings, you know, time, you know, reasonably it's there,
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: but when you walk outside and it's five o'clock and
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: five 30, like, wait a minute.
• 2:21
  Speaker 7: I thought my mental fog was caused by, you know,
• 2:24
  Speaker 7: consumption in the last week.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: Nah, I'm pretty sure now it's got to do with
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: the time. The lighting pattern, the sleep pattern. Yeah, no
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: doubt about it. Circadian rhythms. Yeah, it's a real thing.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: One hour.
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: Oh, it's a heck of a change. And it also,
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: I also think it's settling into, as we are approaching
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: our one month anniversary of moving to the afternoons, that
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: it all kind of starts swirling at once. And now
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: we get into the, like you said, the, the end
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: of the consumption and the run that we were on
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: last week that I do think it's starting to calm
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: down a little bit, but I am, I mean, I've,
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: I was trying to fall asleep last night because I
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: didn't want to keep watching the Bears dominate the Seahawks.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: There was good reason for me to try and roll over,
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: but I didn't need much assistance. I was ready to
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: knock out there very quickly. Yeah, me too. I've been
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: feeling it too.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: It's kind of a weird thing because we've been like
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: the guys that were getting up that early and doing that.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: But I did not need to see Caleb Williams on
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: the set talking about all the Bears fans talking about
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: how they're taking the next step with Simmons and all this.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: I'm like, is this the reality I have to live in?
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Is this the penance I'm going to pay for the
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: sports gods now? I'm starting to think that this might
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: be the penance. You know, I've been gifted this moment
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: lifted above the heavens, above the clouds, a Brewers World Series.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: And is this the penance we're going to have to
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: pay now?
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: Is the Bears being a Super Bowl contender?
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Or I shudder to think even a Super Bowl winner.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: Oh, man.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's the thing you worry about. But isn't
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: that okay? I mean, isn't that the choice you'd make?
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: So I keep trying to remind myself this is.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: The Bears look good. That's the Sophie's choice.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Like, hey.
• 3:58
  Speaker 7: Brewers can win a World Series, but that means the
• 4:00
  Speaker 7: Bears are going to win the Super Bowl. You make
• 4:02
  Speaker 7: the trade every time. What's more important, the love or
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: the hate? Love and your team or hate? The love
• 4:07
  Speaker 7: is more important. Man, am I going to hate this.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: I think that's the right way to look at it.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Of course, they haven't done anything yet. They just are
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: looking very good right now.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: No, but it gives the impression they have the feeling,
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: which is a tough one to settle with and one
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: to wrestle with is, I'm struggling to see drew them
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: going through the next 10 to 15 years without getting one, right?
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: Like you, you start to see they're so early in
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Caleb looks so good and so explosive. And Ben Johnson
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: has that thing rolling and humming to the point where
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: it looks like this is going to be a hell
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: of a rivalry in the battle that, you know, a
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: lot of us have talked about wanting. So now I
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: got to live in it. I said, I definitely wanted
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: it and liked it better when both teams are good.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: I do believe the Packers are still a really good
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: football team. And that game on Christmas day is, is
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: going to decide who wins the division, but man, Chicago
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: is going to get glazed rightfully. So, because when you
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: can run the ball like that and just, I mean,
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: that first drive was like football porn, 17 plays, 80 yards,
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: eight and a half minutes, right down the Superbowl champions
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: throats at on the road. in their park. That's a,
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: you need a smoke after that. If you're a bears fan.
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: And they, they also made a, you know, made big
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: plays at the end to, to put it away when
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: they needed to, when it looked like Seattle was going
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: to make the run that third down and long, you know,
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: that was a huge, that bubble screen.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: That was a monster play in that game.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: And maybe in their season, I mean, because that, you know,
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: they don't convert that the Seahawks have a chance down
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: three to go get the winning score at home, all
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: that stuff.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: And then, you know, things might turn out.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Differently, but that was a huge call, huge execution. Yeah.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: by the Bears to get that first down. Nearly scored
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: on that play, and then they scored right after.
• 5:48
  Speaker 7: We were wondering last week, what next? What do we
• 5:51
  Speaker 7: have to look forward to now that the Brewers have
• 5:53
  Speaker 7: capped it off and put a stamp on things? Well,
• 5:58
  Speaker 7: three weeks and a day from today, Packers will play
• 6:02
  Speaker 7: at SoFi against the Rams, and there's a chance that
• 6:04
  Speaker 7: Micah Parsons will be back. He starts individual work this week,
• 6:08
  Speaker 7: team stuff after that, and 21 days, that would put him.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: On pace to start that Yeah, and that's going to
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: be a hell of a game to be able to
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: witness his return. I think that's kind of where because
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: if I'm not mistaken, I believe the Rams mentioned that
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: Miles Garrett is going to start practicing open up his
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: window as well. So both of them could be returning
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: on that day and you you start looking at it.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: It's going to be hard to make this NFC playoff field.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: If you don't rattle off a win in that game,
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: like you can drop a couple of But it does
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: feel like you're going to have to drop the ones
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: in the AFC because you're going to need as many
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: tiebreakers as possible to be able to compete with those guys.
• 6:50
  Speaker 7: So they'll play there. Then they get the mini-buy, which
• 6:55
  Speaker 7: is longer than the normal mini-buy, right?
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: The Wednesday. Yeah. Well, and they get the buy going
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: into that game. Sure.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: So they get the 10 days off and then the
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: extra 10 days where I don't know if they're right
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: now for sure, but this hamstring soreness that we're seeing
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: from Kyler Murray is I can't tell for sure if
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: this is a soft benching and a chance to get
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: Carson Wentz back into the game. But when the Packers
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: play the Vikings in a week from Sunday, there's a
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: very real chance that they're seeing Wentz instead of Kyler
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: Murray again coming up in that game.
• 7:27
  Speaker 7: Well, after they play the Rams, they have, by my math,
• 7:31
  Speaker 7: the Saints on the road and then home against the
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: Bills and Dolphins.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: And after that, the Bills game starts, right? That run
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: of four games. At home, to close out the year,
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: four of the last five games at home, to close
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: out the schedule, that is a heck of a favorable close.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: And having the Dolphins the five days before the Bears
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: on Christmas Day is a nice little touch. That's a
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: nice one, right?
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: It's kind of like, I don't want to say it's
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: like a week off. This is a weird schedule for
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: the Packers this year. Two Thursday games early. You don't
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: really have a full bye week. So you don't have
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: a full bye week. You have two mini-byes there. It's
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: kind of weird, but, you know, maybe maybe it'll be
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: a good thing in the long run. The Packers can
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: get more rest there as they enter the late parts
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: of the season.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: Then they have.
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Like you mentioned, they have the Wednesday, then the Christmas
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Day as a Friday. So odd stuff. But, hey, it's
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: been that kind of it's been that kind of schedule,
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: that kind of season. So we'll see. Maybe the Packers
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: can return the favor. I mean, the Packers were flying high, too,
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: until the Denver game last year. Micah gets hurt. They
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: lose a couple games against the Bears. I think they
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: should have won. I think a lot of people feel
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: that way.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: I mean, you.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Catch an onside kick. You don't blow a lead in
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: the second half.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: You should win.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Those things didn't happen. So maybe we can return the
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: favor this year. Maybe we can end their dreams. You know,
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: maybe we can foil their plans.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: It sure would be a nice time to be able
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: to get that win and set yourself up for a
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: hat and a T-shirt. I don't think anyone's winning the
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: hat and T-shirt in that game on Christmas because I
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: think the division is still going to be too good.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: But I do believe control of it's going to come
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: down there. And yeah, your quarterback's playing really, really well.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: Theirs is playing very well. Will the Packers be able
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: to run the ball at all by the time we
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: get there? Should be a good question because the Steelers
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: for the first three weeks couldn't run themselves out of
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: a paper bag. And now have one of the better
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: running offenses in football drew over the last four weeks.
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: I thought yesterday a lot was made of the Matt
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: LaFleur comments about letting Jordan love cook. I also thought
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: the Kevin Zeitler ones were a little bit interesting. And
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: then him having more of the coordinators instead of it's
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: talking today of, yeah, we yeah, he's ready. He's ready
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: to play. Yeah, he's ready to play. But it sounded like.
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: The more important thing to them was getting Aaron Banks
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: back into the lineup and believing that they're good there. Bill,
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: I was Pete Doherty. I think that had the back
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: and forth with LeFleur where he said, you know, you're right, guards,
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: but that wasn't great on Thursday night. I said, wait,
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: you don't think we played well enough there?
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: No.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: Oh, we'll just agree to disagree on that side. I
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: don't know that Lincoln Tomlinson was bad. I think everybody
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: was wondering if Aaron Banks was good on the left side.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: And if that moves around, it just feels like there's
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: a lot more to this Kevin Zeitler story that we
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: haven't heard so far.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: It does seem that way because it seemed like a
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: shoe in for him to start getting work.
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: They thought he was going to be more ready to
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: play earlier, or he believed he was ready to play
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: much earlier than they did. Yeah, that's a good point.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: The whole thing is just starting to smell weird. Well,
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: time will tell, I suppose, on that one.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: This is Steve on the text line. We just really
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: need to make sure the Packers beat the Bears on Christmas.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: Everything else will be a bonus. See, that's where I
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: don't want to get. I don't want to start getting
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: into that mode. I don't want to start becoming that team.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, the Bears were that for years.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: That was loser talk. Oh, all we care about is
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: beating the Packers. We can go 2-14 as long as
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: we beat the Packers. I always thought that was loser talk.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: I want us to have.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: Higher aspirations than that.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Higher standards as a Green Bay Packers fan to say,
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: as long as we beat the Bears, I don't care
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: about anything else.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Well, I do.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't want to beat the Bears on
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Christmas and lose the playoffs and watch the Bears make
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: a playoff run, so I'll have to disagree with that one.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: UPS Ben, it was okay when the Cubs fans would
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: ask when the last World Series championship in Milwaukee was,
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: but now that Packers fans asked the Bears when the
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: last Super Bowl was, everybody's all upset about it.
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: I don't know about that.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: I don't know who's upset about it. But yeah, I
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: don't think Packers fans would be upset about it. Yeah,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: they're just generally, I think, just salty. I would be
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: too if I was inferior.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: And soft. If I was.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Objectively inferior for a long period of time, I'd be
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: salty too.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying. That's the facts. Then you can print it.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: Print it right there. Put it on his shirt too.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: And sell it on 84th and Layton for half the price.
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: Waiting for those to go down.
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: Do you believe that they just put up a sign,
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: or do you have to go and actually do some
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: of the legwork and negotiate? You got to haggle. You
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: got to haggle.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Now, I saw them pull up a truck with big
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: rubber maids, and I'm like, all right, while they're unloading,
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: are they getting more shipment in? Is that how they
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: get around? So I think you got to go and haggle.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: I think you got to go talk to the guy.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: That's the fun of it, isn't it? Like the fun
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: of it is to go negotiate. So that would be
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: part of it. Yeah, I guess you could call that
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: part fun. A couple of not fun days for a
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: couple of former Packers. Darian can are drew released by
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: the Raiders earlier on here today. Also, former Packer DB
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Robert Rochelle cut by the Carolina Panthers after their game
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: against Green Bay.
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: Coming up this week. The amount of player movement in
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: the NFL coming up over the next week is going
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: to be hot. the latest report right now, Jonathan Taylor,
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: not yet. Are the Indianapolis Colts drew ready to part
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: with JT? Yeah. Well, that either means that they don't
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: want to trade him or nobody's given us that first
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: round pick that we keep off asking for. So we'll
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: wait until next week on the deadline before we have
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: to make that sweat. Keep seeing if they make them sweat.
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: I don't know that they end up getting a first rounder,
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: but I definitely don't think that they keep them right. Yeah,
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: it doesn't seem like that. There's a disconnect. You've also
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: made so many moves that at this point, if you're
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: going to then continue to hold on to them, what
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: are you doing here? Risking injury.
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: And risking it being an even worse package. You're putting
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: an asset in peril.
• 13:28
  Speaker 7: If you're going to keep him. Then just put them
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: on the shelf and come up with a phantom injury
• 13:32
  Speaker 7: and put them on IR for the year. That toe
• 13:36
  Speaker 7: is really hurting you, JT, isn't it? Man, that hammy
• 13:39
  Speaker 7: is really, really tight.
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: That's the dilemma. And this is where I think my
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: favorite one comes in because Jordan Schultz said in his
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: report just a couple of minutes ago is that the
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: Giants are among the most active teams looking at acquiring, quote,
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: bigger names. Well, they desperately weren't going to pay that
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: running back that they had. Big money. Yeah. So what
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: would be the right thing to do after John Mara
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: hasn't slept in three years since Saquon Barkley went to
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: the Philadelphia? He hasn't slept. I'm not going to sleep.
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: Let's just go trade for a running back and then
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: pay him more than we paid our own guy. I
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: love that turnabout.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: As a finally Joe Shane makes do and makes right
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: on John Mara having his insomnia for the last year.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: And they have a reason to do it. I mean,
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: they have a shot, obviously, in the east. You know,
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, right now they're leaving.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: Somebody's going to win that. Someone's going to win.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: It right now to the team. And if the Cowboys
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: can't figure themselves out, it won't be them. We know
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: what the Eagles are doing. Washington struggling, even though they
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: just beat the Eagles. So the Giants might be like,
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: all right, this is our shot. We got John Harbaugh.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: Now we have, we have a guy that's playing decent
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: at quarterback. Although who knows how long it'll last. We're
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: going to try and win the East. Now this might
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: be his shot.
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: And like, hopefully get a John Mara nap.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Finally.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Because that's got to be tiring. You've got to let
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: that guy close his eyes, man. I feel bad for him.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: He hasn't slept for three years.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: That's got to be rough.
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: Absolutely rough. Hey, on the show that a lot of
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: people have been wondering for a long time, that super
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: special Run It Back on FanDuel TV show, where we
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: used to always be grabbing those quotes last year of
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: Giannis potentially leaving the Bucs. Booker Cousins went on there,
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: made some noise earlier on today.
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: Said drew quote. It wouldn't surprise me to see Giannis
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: go back to Milwaukee and already they played seven games
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: that we already got boogie. Now re returning him.
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: Damn.
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: Are they going to be throughout the season? If they
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: don't catch some fire here down in Miami, it's kind
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: of nice that they're going to have to deal with
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: the daily smoke, not us. And I get why.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, Giannis did have some comments about how they
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: got to play better and they were kind of going
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: through the motions after their latest loss. where Lucas stomped
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: them and they're two and five now. And so, yeah,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's not been ice cream and puppy dogs
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: out of Miami. That's for sure. So we'll see what
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: happens there. He doesn't seem like a mercenary to me too,
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: where he's just going to keep traveling around looking for
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: rings from team to team.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: I could be wrong. I mean, I mean, maybe it's
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: wishful thinking. I just feel like he didn't want to
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: really leave in the first place for any other reason,
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: except for contending. And if he's not going to win there, Well,
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: he could have done that more. Now it's a long season.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: They could win a few games here. Giannis is still
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: playing very well. But I got the audio. The audio
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: was terrible audio, so I'm not going to play it.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: That's why I just read it, because I knew from
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: that show that it wasn't going to be very good.
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: But it's interesting, Drew. Already we're putting that thing out there.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: We're floating that soft launching the Bucs and Giannis already
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: returning because... It's not going as swimmingly as people thought.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: What are the Polymarket and Kelshi odds of that? I wonder.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, now, can Kelshi give the
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: odds out? Giannis being an endorser? I don't know. I
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: don't know. Now, Polymarket, I mean, they'll put anything up there.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: I would love to know at what point. Pat Riley
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: goes down and says something to him. And says, okay,
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: we have to do something here, too. Because I got
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: to imagine Pat's just not going to stand, Pat. Pardon
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: the pun. Pardon the pun. To just sit back and
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: listen to all this nonsense. Or it'll be a nice
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: passive-aggressive thing by Pat Riley. It's like, I didn't trade
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: the cookies away from LeBron and the team flight. I
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: didn't trade my whole team for this. No way.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: I did not trade my whole team away for this.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: Somebody has to set this as a quote. Somebody has
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: to set the tone. Others have got to follow right now.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: We have glimpses of it. It starts for me from bam,
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: Andrew and Davion, the starting group. It's almost like we're
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: going through the motions. We have to come together. We
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: cannot go the other way.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: It didn't seem happy. That's for sure.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: It didn't seem happy.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: Now it's yeah.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: Well, I kind of like manifesting this thing, though. The discontent,
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: the trying to get him back to Milwaukee. I'll tell
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: you again, the hate watch did not go well last night.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Not at all. The hate watch of the Bears was
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: not good. The hate watch of the Miami Heat the
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: first couple of weeks has been fun. And I know, Armand,
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: you're not fully on board with the hate watch of
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: the Heat. No, but I don't want them to win.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: This is what it is. This is this is kind
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: of working out exactly how the Buck fan hate watch
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: would be because you do get to see him still
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: dominate and cook. Yeah, but then them look like the
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: Bucks at the end.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, sure.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: Because what we the way we did started this show
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: with the top five, you know, who's top five on
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: your athlete list in Wisconsin right now. He used to be,
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: you know, entrenched in the top spot for years and
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: years and years. That was Giannis' spot in that kind
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: of poll. So now that he's gone, it's been kind
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: of sad. Okay, we don't have Giannis anymore.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: So maybe we can get.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: Him back and then people can start to feel the
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: good feelings about Giannis again.
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: Because I kind of feel bad that people don't.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: It's a little schadenfreude and it's like, you know, people
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: are like making jokes about Giannis and he kind of
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: became a villain for some people.
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: No, no, no.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: Let's bring him back here. Then getting everyone's good graces.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: He can bring the young guys along. He can start
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: smiling again and cracking dad jokes. Talking about pepperoni pizza. Like,
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: that's what I like to see. So, I mean, maybe
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: it's wishful thinking, but I don't know. I'd like to
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: see it.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: Armin, you remain the cockeyed optimist. Optimist. You got to
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: stay optimistic. You got to be. It's the only way
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: to be, you know? Billy, what do.
• 19:10
  Speaker 7: You got for our 420 story? Well, listen, I got
• 19:13
  Speaker 7: a good one. And 420 is right upon us right now.
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: Because and maybe this is maybe this is wrong. Maybe
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: I'm just too mean.
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: Maybe I shouldn't. Pat Murphy, you're floating on cloud nine
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: right now or on cloud four, you know, whatever you
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: want to call it. It might be cloud 420 for
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: folks listening to this at this exact moment. He had,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: why is he on this apology tour about the, the
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: horse bleep Yankee team one.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Apparently it feels bad.
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: Just went on Joel Sherman's podcast and the, the show
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: podcast on the New York post to say, I called
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: Brian Cashman right away when I heard my comments. got out.
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: I didn't realize we were on a hot mic, and
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: I tried to explain that I wasn't talking about the
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: 2026 Yankees. I was just referring to the teams with
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: a lot of money that sign a lot of players
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: that sometimes end up being like that little engine that could.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: So to speak with more of a high expectation, I
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: got to get mine. I regret saying it. Pat, talk
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: as much smack as possible. Feel free. The only people
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: that were mad about it. it seemed like we're non
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: Yankee or Brewer fans. Cause it felt like a lot
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: of Yankee fans were like, thank God someone's saying, yes,
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: thanks for saying, finally, somebody else is watching this. Almost
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: the Yankee fans were celebrating it more than Brewers fans
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: at the moment. Pat, fly your flag, talk your stuff.
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: If there's ever a time that you get to, now
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: is the time. You do not apologize for a damn
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: thing that comes out of your mouth the next month.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: I do like that he kind of clarified it, though,
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: because people weren't interpreting it wrong. They all thought he
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: meant the Yankee team that Bowers was on, and I
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: think he was saying the future Yankee teams that Bowers
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: could be on as a representation of any team that
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: would pay him money.
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: I felt horribly if I slandered the Yankees, which is
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: kind of referring to them as the iconic machine.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's actually complimenting them in some ways.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: In some ways, but I'm with you, Billy.
• 21:06
  Speaker 7: And, well, Murph could use some Happy Place Hemp products
• 21:08
  Speaker 7: because he's going to be convalescing from his hip surgery,
• 21:10
  Speaker 7: which is coming up on Monday.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: It's a great call, Drew. He's going to need some, yes.
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: And he's going to need a chip to him. Indeed. Yes,
• 21:16

• 21:57
  Speaker 7: man about film. He, his favorite team won. I was
• 22:01
  Speaker 7: going to say, I can't wait to talk to him.
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: He went to some games. Plenty to talk to Matt about.
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: You were in the huddle.
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: Fox Sports. Drew Billion, I'm back with you on the huddle.
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: It's been too long since we've heard this sexy, this
• 22:19
  Speaker 7: sexy walk-up song.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, so good.
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: It's been too long since we said hello to our
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: pal Matt Miller, a man about film. Matt, I begin
• 22:26
  Speaker 7: with an apology. I saw you after game two of
• 22:28
  Speaker 7: the World Series, and I didn't mean to blow you off,
• 22:30
  Speaker 7: but I was running for my life to get downstairs
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: through the crowd.
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: I may have been a little distracted at that moment
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: and maybe a little inebriated at that moment.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: So I don't know if you were going to.
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: Get the best. We're on the club level.
• 22:43
  Speaker 7: And I said, Matt goes, Hey, Drew, I'm going to
• 22:45
  Speaker 7: give you a wave as well. I didn't break. I
• 22:47
  Speaker 7: like that. It was not a blow off. It was,
• 22:50
  Speaker 7: I got to get downstairs and fight this crowd. leaving.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: That's no joke.
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: I've just been seething. I've just been so angry these
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: past two weeks. Nothing has been able to console me.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: You've been in a terrible mood, right? You've been big-leagued
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: by bigger than me, I'm sure. I'm just saying.
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: I get big-leagued by my infant child.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: I'll get used to that.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: That's only beginning.
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: We've all been there.
• 23:14
  Speaker 7: As a big Brewers fan, what was your experience like
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: devouring it all and then the parades and watching the
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: social media stuff and seeing your beloved brewers on weekend
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: update on Saturday night live.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It's been incredible.
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: I mean, I do think it, I don't even know
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: if it's all fully hit us yet. Like, and I
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: know everyone keeps saying that, but it is, there is
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: like a weird dream feeling of like, you keep waiting
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: to like, be like, Oh no, you were dreaming. It's
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: still game two against the Padres or something like that.
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: But the fact that it, our Brewers that this team
• 23:52
  Speaker 6: that I've watched for most of my life be a
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: supporting character to other teams, cool journeys that we were
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: the little brother to the Cardinals for so long that
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: even in this great run, that we always seem to
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: be the team that the other hot team got to
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: play and, you know, started their run, the Met series
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: and the diamond backs. And, you know, it's, And this
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: year we got to be the main character. We got
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: to be the protagonist of our own incredible, you know,
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: historic story. And they got to do it being themselves,
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: being the Brewers, playing a really cool brand of baseball.
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: Like this isn't a fluke season. This isn't like the
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: Brewers went out and bought a bunch of dudes and
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: made some crazy trades at the deadline and they won
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: the World Series. And now we're going to have to
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: face like a decade of miserableness. You know, they didn't
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: cash in all their chips. They played really good baseball
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: with the guys they had and can keep doing that
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: for years to come. It's absolutely bug nuts. It makes
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: me so happy.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: It really does give you a feeling of they were
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: able to strike their own way. The win your way
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: or win our way is perfect encapsulation of it. they
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: did get a little baseball karma luck with the Dodgers
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: and the Scooble and the trade not going their way
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: when they thought that they were going to have it
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: and all those stories coming back. But, Matt, I also
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: think the part that you hit it on the head of, like,
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: it wasn't a fluke. They were clearly the best team.
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: They dominated in the postseason. They still have the runway
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: for a lot of success on the back end here
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: as well. But it wasn't just like how a lot
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: of us who had defended the Bites at the Apple
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: Theory for a long time have been like– Listen, you
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: win 89 games, you win 91 games and you get in,
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: you can get hot. They were the best team and
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: the hottest team. And rarely is ever that team, the
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: lovable one that they seemingly were across the entire country.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Agreed.
• 25:51
  Speaker 6: And, and the fact that they had, they took the
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: toughest path to winning this, that they could have taken.
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: They played the hottest team in the NL with the Padres.
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: Then they played the death star in the Dodgers. And
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: then they played the best team from the American League,
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: the undoubted best team in the American League, the Tampa
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: Bay Rays, the kind of, like, mirror image of themselves.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: And they crushed them all. I know, like, I mean,
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: I'm sure we've all seen it.
• 26:16
  Speaker 6: Like, people talk about the Bucs, and it's like, oh,
• 26:18
  Speaker 6: you had to beat the Hawks, and you had to beat,
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: you know, the Nets.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Who were injured.
• 26:22
  Speaker 6: And people love to criticize the team's path.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: Like, oh, how good of a champion are they? They're champions.
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: And if you are one of those people who criticizes past, well,
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: what would, what would have been harder for the Brewers?
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: What possible thing could have, what didn't they do to
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: achieve the impossible?
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: It was, it's great.
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: I love that we have an undeniable, awesome baseball champion.
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that is a great point.
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's wonderful enough to win the world series,
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: a lifelong dream come true for all Brewers fans. You know,
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: an impossible, it seemed impossible, but, They then started getting
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: discussions about, you know, this is one of the great
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: teams that runs of all time. And I guess if
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: they would have closed out the sweep, maybe that would
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: have been the only thing.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: But you're right.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: It just gave us a better story to come back
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: and get Miz in the mound for game five and
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: to get the win. Now I like, I noticed this, Matt.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: I like that right away. You were thinking about it
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: in screenwriter terms, like right away, you're thinking about the
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: protagonist and it's like, could you write a better script
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: for this? And how do you direct this documentary of
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: which they're probably going to be 14 of them coming
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: out at some point?
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely.
• 27:30
  Speaker 6: And I mean, I'm sure somewhere in Hollywood, they're like,
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: is there a money ball too here? Is there a
• 27:35
  Speaker 6: two money, two ball that we can make out of
• 27:37
  Speaker 6: the brewers?
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: And yeah, They're just really fun.
• 27:42
  Speaker 6: And the fact that, you know, they got to go
• 27:43
  Speaker 6: to Saturday night live and that, you know, they got
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: a crowd pop, you know, people really were excited to
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: see them. I think there is something about this team
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: that really compels people. Now I did think it was interesting.
• 27:55
  Speaker 6: I heard a few other podcasts that were like, this
• 27:57
  Speaker 6: is a team you're going to get sick of over
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: the next three years. Cause this year they're the lovable underdogs,
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: but they're going to be this good. Unless, you know,
• 28:06
  Speaker 6: there is a good chance they will be this good
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: for the next half decade, if not more. And you're
• 28:11
  Speaker 6: going to see, we're not going to be cute and
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: lovable much longer. We're going to be the team that
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: people are like, screw you.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: We got to beat you. And what a cool place
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: for the Brewers to be.
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: Always going to be a backlash. Now, yeah, we had
• 28:24
  Speaker 7: a couple of movies made about Giannis. How about a
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: movie about Murph?
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: Good one. Very much. Sadly, Rip Torn's no longer with
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: us to play Murph.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: Who would you cast as Pat Murphy?
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, you could do like a Nick Nolte.
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: I mean, obviously Nolte's vocal cords have taken a few
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: sandpaper fastballs over the years in a way that, you know,
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: Murph's voice isn't quite that hard to listen to, but
• 28:53
  Speaker 6: he could play like kind of the grizzled, you.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Know, coach of, teacher of men kind of roles.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: Pete Davidson can play Yellich. I was going to say
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: Pete Davidson, Yellich, but we got to get Chalamet in
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: there for someone, right? He's got to play somebody.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: If you want people to show up in the seats, yeah,
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Chalamet is a really good idea for that.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: Too bad Lawrence Tierney died like 25 years ago.
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: Wouldn't he be the one? How about Woody Harrelson?
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: All right, Woody Harrelson.
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: I like this.
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: I see that.
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: That's a good team. Speaking of castings, is Nicolas Cage
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: going to work again after this Madden thing? Listen, I
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: love John Madden. John Madden is one of my favorite
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: human beings that has ever walked this earth, and I
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: wanted everything to do with celebrating in a biopic of
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: John Madden.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: I watched some of that.
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: I love Nick Cage. I, you know, especially this kind
• 29:45
  Speaker 6: of phase of his career where he's kind of, you know,
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: doing cool things and owning his past Nicolas Cage-ness. This
• 29:53
  Speaker 6: is one of those cases where it's like, you tell
• 29:54
  Speaker 6: me we couldn't.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: Have found an actor who looks like John Madden.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: Anything like?
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Anything like?
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: Or chose to play him. He's not playing. He's playing
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: the best case.
• 30:03
  Speaker 6: I forget what movie it was where they like lacquered
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: up an actor in a bunch of makeup and he
• 30:07
  Speaker 6: just looked like Paul Giamatti. And I was like, we
• 30:09
  Speaker 6: have a Paul Giamatti. Just cast Paul Giamatti. This Madden
• 30:16
  Speaker 6: movie seems like a bad idea. The director is David O. Russell,
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: who's made a bunch of bad movies in a row.
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: Now he's on a real losing streak. He directed The Fighter,
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: directed Silver Linings Playbook, which were really good movies. And
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: then he made a movie called Amsterdam that you forgot
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: existed until I said it right now. And you know
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: how hard it is to make a Taylor Swift related
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: movie that people have forgotten about? Do you know how
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: difficult that is?
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: So the guy's on a real slump. I.
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: And the fact that Amazon is like, I don't know,
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: we'll maybe release it in theaters. Please watch our streaming movie.
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: It tells me they don't have a lot of confidence.
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: In this thing. The clip that came out with him
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: in what is supposed to be Pat Summerall next to
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: him was one of the more egregious things that I've
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: been able to see. And it was that test launch of,
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: do we actually need to put this on theaters or
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: should we just pass and make sure everybody comes right here?
• 31:07
  Speaker 6: There is a weird thing, though, with Hollywood marketing these
• 31:09
  Speaker 6: days where it's like they choose purposefully kind of bad clips.
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: to kind of get people talking on the internet about it.
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: This is a thing with a lot of movies now,
• 31:19
  Speaker 6: where they'll release a clip, and I'm like, you can't
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: tell me you think this is good.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: I don't understand what you're trying to get from this.
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: They want to rage bait audiences, in a way, is
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: what you're saying.
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: It feels like Hollywood knows that rage bait does better
• 31:33
  Speaker 6: than positive bait on the internet.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: And as a result, they're like, we'll give our worst
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: clip out.
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: That's a zig while everyone zags.
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: All right, Matt, like speaking of box office, is this
• 31:42
  Speaker 7: the downtime we're coming out holiday season? Does it start
• 31:45
  Speaker 7: like Thanksgiving week or what? Because we have a Godzilla
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: minus zero coming out. The cat in the hat animated.
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: It's coming out. Bill haters, you know, Dr. Seuss, right?
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: I like that.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Uh bill later is the cat in the hat.
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah the cat in the hat.
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: So no weirdly halloween was our dead weekend this year
• 32:03
  Speaker 6: because i think it was that it was halloween landed
• 32:05
  Speaker 6: on a saturday and no one wanted to release a
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: horror movie two days before halloween and then halloween ends
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: and everyone's like well i don't want to see scary
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: movies anymore we've moved on it's now christmas season perfect
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: time for.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: But this weekend is actually going to be big.
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: That Godzilla movie, the previous one, Godzilla minus one, absolutely rules.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you've checked that out. It is tremendous.
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: I know it's very confusing for people because that is
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: a Japanese Godzilla movie versus the other Godzillas that America
• 32:38
  Speaker 6: has been making. This one rules. This one is one
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: of the, I'm very excited for minus zero. And then
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: you've got the cat in the hat, which kids movies
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: make money and people of all generations know the cat
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: in the hat. it's probably going to make decent money
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: this weekend. And it'll probably have legs because kids got
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: to do something and the weather's getting worse and getting
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: darker out.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: And you've also got wild.
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: Horse nine this weekend, which is the new movie from
• 33:01
  Speaker 6: the guy who did three billboards over Ebbing, Missouri and
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: in Bruges and the Banshees have been a Sharon. He's
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: a big Oscar guy. it looks like John Malkovich might
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: get nominated for best supporting actor or best actor this
• 33:14
  Speaker 6: year for that movie, which I would love to see
• 33:17
  Speaker 6: a John Malkovich, you know, Oscar winning speech. Malkovich has
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: been doing it for a long time. I think that will,
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: that's probably going to do pretty well too. So we've
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: got a big slate of movies this weekend and then
• 33:29
  Speaker 6: pretty much every weekend until the end of the year,
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: which ends with obviously Dune and Avengers doomsday and, otherwise
• 33:38
  Speaker 6: known as everyone is spending their money at the movie
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: theaters this weekend weekend.
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, we got a Jumanji coming out too
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: in December, right? Another one on Christmas.
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: I don't understand how movie theaters are going to have
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: room for all of it. They're going to need a
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: ton of screens for a ton of screens for Dune.
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: Jumanji is going to, that movie made a billion dollars
• 33:57
  Speaker 6: the first one. And like, that's not even including all
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: the movies and the Oscar based on the ad budget.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: They're really pushing a fucker in law. I've seen a
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: lot of those. A lot of De Niro and Stiller commercials.
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: People forget how much money. I think Meet the Fockers
• 34:14
  Speaker 6: was the highest grossing comedy. It made a ton of money.
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: Those movies made egregious amounts of money. Then Hollywood decided
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: that making comedies just wasn't for them anymore. I'm glad
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: to see that they're coming back. And I'm glad to see,
• 34:30
  Speaker 6: you know, it's probably going to do pretty well. I
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: think Ariana Grande, you know, that's a value add. She
• 34:35
  Speaker 6: is a notable star, especially for younger generations who maybe
• 34:40
  Speaker 6: haven't seen the meet the parents movies.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: So I think that's going to make some money too.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: And hopefully it's good too. It'd be nice if all
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: these movies were good.
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: That's a good thing to be able to shoot for.
• 34:51
  Speaker 7: The other one that caught my eye is coming out.
• 34:54
  Speaker 7: I think next weekend is Ebenezer. It's like, Oh, Johnny
• 34:57
  Speaker 7: Depp last seen in a trial. you know that captivated
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: a certain segment of the public he's back trying to
• 35:03
  Speaker 7: make a movie as you know a dickensian movie yeah.
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: And they keep trying to be like no this is
• 35:09
  Speaker 6: going to be a different christmas carol and i keep
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: seeing the trailers and being like i'm not sure what
• 35:14
  Speaker 6: yeah three ghosts arrive and past present and future what's
• 35:19
  Speaker 6: what's different here they do have a horror director making
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: it his name's ty west He did X and Pearl.
• 35:25
  Speaker 6: So I'm a little interested that maybe they lean a
• 35:27
  Speaker 6: little harder into the like Gothic ghost story angle.
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: Supernatural Scrooge.
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: But they already did that 10 years ago with Tom
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: Hardy as a TV show. So, like, I mean, it's
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: a time-honored story. Like, how many new angles are there on,
• 35:44
  Speaker 6: you know, Christmas Carol?
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Right. I'll probably still end up wanting– I'll probably.
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: Prefer to watch the Muppet Christmas Carol.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: That's always– Still the best one.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: That's a good one. Still the best one. Did you
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: ever catch– It's so good. Billy and I were wondering,
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: did you ever catch the Chris Hansen movie that he
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: was so mad about that Chris Hansen.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: Like– Yeah, that's still showing over at the Avalon right now.
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: I think we're going to see it. We might have
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: to go.
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: Because I was always a big fan of the Catcher Predators, Billy,
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: and we always talk about it. But the thing is,
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: I don't want to say they bastardized it, but they
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: made such a weirdness out of it. I know Chris
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: Hansen wasn't happy about it. I've seen him on some
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: podcasts saying they totally are lying about it.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: I don't know. It was just completely false.
• 36:21
  Speaker 6: Well, it's one of those things that, in retrospect, it's like, yeah,
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: it's kind of weird that the number one show in
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: America was like, pedophile stingrays, right?
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: That's a weird thing. That's true.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: We were just locked into network TV more, and it
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: was unlike anything. It was like reality TV in a way.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: That Dateline stuff was unlike anything we saw. The drama
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: was so intense.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: But you're right.
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: That part of it is still weird. I'm not saying
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: you're wrong about that. But listen, I was engrossed by it.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: I was.
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: Okay, sorry.
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: The movie actually ties it to like the Iraq war
• 36:54
  Speaker 6: stuff too. And it's like, that was a real moment
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: of America of like righteous anger and like righteous being like,
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: we are out for justice and we don't know where,
• 37:03
  Speaker 6: we don't know where we're going to find it, but
• 37:05
  Speaker 6: we're going to find justice.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Dang it. It's a really interesting movie. I think it's
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: worth checking out.
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: The guy who directed it also directed the Elizabeth Holmes
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: documentary that's.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: Making blockbuster money.
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: Imagine saying the three-hour long documentary is going to make
• 37:20
  Speaker 6: more money than Supergirl this year.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: Absolutely bizarre. It's great, by the way. You should check
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: it out.
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: Matt, on the way out, how was the first Halloween
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: as a parent? What was trick-or-treating like? How much candy
• 37:31
  Speaker 7: do you still have in the house?
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: We have so much candy still.
• 37:35
  Speaker 6: We didn't go out We dressed up as Indiana Jones,
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: and he was the golden idol at the beginning of
• 37:41
  Speaker 6: Raiders of.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: The Lost Ark.
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: And Ellen really wanted to go trick-or-treating with Remy, and
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: I was like, but every house we go to is
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: going to know that the candy's for us. The baby's
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: six months old. Everyone's going to know we are using
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: our baby to get candy. So we didn't go trick-or-treating,
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: but luckily we bought a way too large a bag
• 38:02
  Speaker 6: of candy for not that many trick-or-treaters, and now I've
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: got cavities.
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: See, but that's the good thing. That's the sweet age, Drew,
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: because then he can eat the candy, and then you
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: don't have now the three-year-old saying, where'd all my candy go?
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: Right, no, the dad tax is 100% now.
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: Where'd all my candy go? I have five pieces in
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: here left last night. Not anymore.
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: I had no idea that I kept picking the Skittles
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: for me, you know, which was great.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: Listen, we've got to check it for razor blades. You've
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: got to check it.
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: Make sure it's not poison. That is fantastic.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 38:32
  Speaker 7: Matt Miller, thank you for popping on. We appreciate it.
• 38:34
  Speaker 7: We're going to have you back.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: Thanks for having me, friendos. How about those brewers?
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: How about them? Amazing. You're right. Still surreal. Still hard
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: to process. Oh, yeah, the brewers. They won the championship.
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: That is a fun thing to just be able to say.
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: How about them brewers? How about them brewers?
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: Amazing.
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 38:49
  Speaker 7: We'll be back to close up shop on the Tuesday
• 38:51
  Speaker 7: edition of the Huddle Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: Drew, Billy, and Armin bringing it to you. It's November 3rd, boys.
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: That's crazy to think about already.
• 39:12
  Speaker 7: We haven't seen a sub-freezing high temperature. We haven't seen
• 39:18
  Speaker 7: a trace of snow yet. Still relatively mild around here,
• 39:22
  Speaker 7: around these parts here at the Megaplex.
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: Now, are we supposed to be paying a penance for
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: how warm it was this fall?
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: Isn't it supposed to be a real cold winter? Is
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: that what I'm hearing.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: Coming up here?
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: This is an El Nino year, isn't it? El Nino,
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: or does that mean that it's going to be warmer
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: throughout the winter? It might be warmer and just more snow, perhaps.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: I thought that was La Nina. I always mix everything
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: up like this. I am always wrong. But I'm down
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: with whatever it is. I busted the snowblower out today.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: Just made sure that son of a gun was going
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: to be able to run. Just getting her ready to roll.
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know, it's going to be, like you said,
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: this is the time of year you tell yourself, I
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: should have got the leaf blower last year when the
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: season was over.
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: But that's okay.
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: I'll borrow my dad's again. And we've had some nice
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: days to get some work done. I think everyone's kind
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: of catching up on that because we've been so ensconced
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: in Brewers baseball.
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: In a good way. But, yes, an El Nino milder winter.
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: Milder winter. I like that. That's what I'm talking about.
• 40:17
  Speaker 4: Let's rock with that.
• 40:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: I'll take it. Let's ride. The last couple winters haven't
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: been bad. Drew, you're spot on. There's been like the
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: one or two snowstorms, it feels like, and that's about it. Also,
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, the cold days are one of these. We
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: get into this little polar vortex, but I also, I mean,
• 40:36
  Speaker 4: I'll get into this once we get close, but I
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: also think we're just getting a little bit more excited
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: to be canceling school. I think we get a little
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: aggressive on the snow days and the cold days nowadays.
• 40:47
  Speaker 7: MPS got off Friday for the parade and off today
• 40:49
  Speaker 7: because so many schools are polling sites.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's what it is.
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: MPS had themselves a double dip. See, our high school
• 40:58
  Speaker 4: was a polling place. It was a great way to
• 41:00
  Speaker 4: skip classes.
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: Because you could go in there and kind of... Oh,
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: you could.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: Just mill around in there for hours. I remember my
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: senior year, I'm pretty sure I missed four periods. We
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: never had our spot as a polling place. Sorry, guys.
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: I got to get down there. I got to vote.
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: You know you can do that after school. But I
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: got to go. I'm doing my duty. I don't want
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: to forget. Listen, NBA's not playing any games tonight to
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: make sure. I thought that we could take off stats
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: class here, Mr. Anderson. I thought it was worth it. Billy,
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: the polls don't open until 9 o'clock. Well, I just
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: wanted to make sure I was first in line. Make
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: sure we were good.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Make sure everybody was good to go.
• 41:38
  Speaker 4: Make sure everything was set up. classic so somebody's having
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: a bake sale outside of there somebody's got.
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: To capitalize on it make some money i wish i
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: would start selling stuff outside and they funneled you right
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: in like you could you do a 50 50 see
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: it was a church but i don't see why i
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: would churches have raffles.
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: They play bingo probably at the rest of the festival
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: that's a great idea man that would be a great
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: idea 50 50.
• 42:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah There are some sporting events tonight, but it's light
• 42:08
  Speaker 7: because of election night.
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: Maction night.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: They're playing.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, baby.
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: Come on now. Let's ride. We're back into Maction.
• 42:16
  Speaker 7: Finally, all is good with this beautiful world. I know
• 42:20
  Speaker 7: we'll be back at it tomorrow. And tomorrow on the program,
• 42:22
  Speaker 7: we'll talk to Bill Schroeder. He couldn't make it today,
• 42:24
  Speaker 7: but we'll kind of put a bow on the brewer
• 42:26
  Speaker 7: season and talk to Rock a week after the title
• 42:29
  Speaker 7: was secured.
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: Can't wait for that.
