Speaker 3: from Mac and Devon Go to High School, one of
0:35
Speaker 3: the great twenty ten Stoner movies that you possibly could have.
0:39
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's true.
0:40
Speaker 4: I was just thinking of anything that referenced no sleep,
0:42
Speaker 4: and that was the line, Well.
0:44
Speaker 3: You know that no sleep is actually not a part
0:46
Speaker 3: of that of that song, Isn't that what he says?
0:49
Speaker 3: So we don't sleep? What he say that is in
0:52
Speaker 3: the radio edit version. Okay, well we're on the right.
0:56
Speaker 3: I know, I know your surviving that. Actually that actually
0:59
Speaker 3: wasn't a part of that.
1:00
Speaker 1: So that's not the clean version. That is that is
1:03
Speaker 1: the super super clean version.
1:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, the album super clean version you no Instead that
1:08
Speaker 3: one references what we do?
1:09
Speaker 1: Uh what around seven forty eight? Yes, Awake bake segment.
1:14
Speaker 1: There was a there was a young a young arman
1:17
Speaker 1: that didn't realize a.
1:18
Speaker 4: Lot of things on the I got I didn't get
1:20
Speaker 4: the parental advisory.
1:22
Speaker 3: Well, you would be like Wiz Khalifa in this movie.
1:24
Speaker 3: This movie would be showing a young armand sorry and
1:28
Speaker 3: as Whiz Khalifa before Whiz Khalifa got to meet that
1:31
Speaker 3: part of the back end of his name. Uh and
1:33
Speaker 3: he meets a young man that that Snoop is walking
1:37
Speaker 3: in mac just won't graduate.
1:39
Speaker 1: Just won't leave that dang school alone.
1:42
Speaker 3: And all of a sudden he busts out certain things
1:45
Speaker 3: from that backpack. Oh that's a good movie. I watched
1:48
Speaker 3: that movie far too many times. It seems awful as
1:50
Speaker 3: it is. That seems like a million tip type of movie.
1:52
Speaker 3: That seems like that that was on regularly in college.
1:55
Speaker 3: That would have been probably our college version of Super True. Yeah,
1:59
Speaker 3: of which there's a Super Troopers three. I can't believe it.
2:02
Speaker 4: I just thought two came out, and then all of
2:04
Speaker 4: a sudden there's a three, Like you gotta be.
2:06
Speaker 1: Kidding me, but hey, yeah, they were doing a press
2:07
Speaker 1: for it.
2:08
Speaker 3: We'll got band Marcus in the whole little spiel Before
2:11
Speaker 3: the Before the movies.
2:12
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make Matt Miller watch that to review it.
2:15
Speaker 1: I love it. Hey man, you want to come on,
2:17
Speaker 1: you have to watch sup? Oh man?
2:21
Speaker 2: All right, six o'clock, cluvers, early risers, insomniacs, sociopaths, welcome
2:27
Speaker 2: all one, welcome all.
2:28
Speaker 1: We're caffeinated. We're gonna get through this, and then we're
2:31
Speaker 1: gonna crash.
2:32
Speaker 2: So it took ten minutes from my Aura app to
2:35
Speaker 2: realize that I had a two hour nap, that's what
2:38
Speaker 2: they're calling it.
2:42
Speaker 1: Out of one hundred.
2:42
Speaker 4: Well, I've been trying to figure out what constitutes a
2:44
Speaker 4: new day, because you know, like the new, the new.
2:47
Speaker 1: It's a new day for there.
2:49
Speaker 4: You go, because you know, obviously you're supposed to change
2:53
Speaker 4: clothes every day.
2:54
Speaker 1: That's kind of what we do with customs of society.
2:56
Speaker 1: I've heard that, But I'm.
2:57
Speaker 4: Like, I got the same shirt on the same under
3:00
Speaker 4: do I put a new shirt on?
3:01
Speaker 1: Is it a new day here technically? Or like I
3:03
Speaker 1: kind of barely went to sleep, So I feel like
3:06
Speaker 1: you don't have to if you don't want. Well, I
3:07
Speaker 1: don't care my Brewers shirt. I probably I just don't know.
3:10
Speaker 1: I'm like, does this kind of I should probably put
3:12
Speaker 1: news on.
3:13
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, if if you really want to do
3:15
Speaker 3: something good for the for the show, what you would
3:17
Speaker 3: do is you'd change shirt right now on the video stream,
3:19
Speaker 3: so we'd have that digital asset.
3:20
Speaker 4: So I don't know, underneath it, you want me to
3:23
Speaker 4: go shirtless on the stream?
3:25
Speaker 1: Is that what you're want?
3:26
Speaker 3: Is that?
3:26
Speaker 1: I don't know.
3:26
Speaker 3: I mean, do we stay up late last night or what?
3:28
Speaker 3: What the heck kind of party is this here?
3:30
Speaker 4: Joey probably had something better playing than this, you know, yeah,
3:35
Speaker 4: no doubt.
3:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, So my my two hours, my sleep score of
3:38
Speaker 2: thirty two out of one hundred. Like, okay, so two
3:40
Speaker 2: hours and nine minutes time in bed, two hours fifty
3:43
Speaker 2: four minutes, so I laid down for almost three hours,
3:45
Speaker 2: slept for just two and that's that's But yeah, I
3:49
Speaker 2: have I didn't bother changing shirts, but I do keep
3:54
Speaker 2: toilet trees in my little office over there, the locker room.
3:58
Speaker 1: And well I like that, yeah.
3:59
Speaker 2: Too, rush toilet trees. You know, I was able to, like,
4:02
Speaker 2: you know, shower in the bathroom.
4:03
Speaker 4: That One of my my best takes ever is every
4:06
Speaker 4: radio station should have a working shop.
4:07
Speaker 3: They should totally I rolled home, and then in the
4:10
Speaker 3: middle of the sleep, I gotta I got a hand
4:13
Speaker 3: in the head of Daddy. You leave, but this is
4:17
Speaker 3: where I'm supposed to be. You're supposed to be somewhere else.
4:20
Speaker 3: But that's fine. I will leave.
4:22
Speaker 1: And then I got a little little extra work in
4:23
Speaker 1: a little glaser for well, you came through with those.
4:26
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. The glaziers. We got cookies. We're good
4:28
Speaker 1: to go, but.
4:30
Speaker 2: We're running on sugar and caffeine. That's how it goes,
4:32
Speaker 2: all right. So we mentioned the first start with the
4:34
Speaker 2: program dominated with talk of the Packers, a preseason opener.
4:37
Speaker 2: We were helming Packers O T until midnight, So after
4:42
Speaker 2: every Packer's game, join us on the air or on
4:44
Speaker 2: the interwebster, however you experience it. The story of the
4:48
Speaker 2: night was Trey Smack. We've been going through some things.
4:51
Speaker 2: Keyshawn Nixon's getting blistered today because people are recirculating the
4:56
Speaker 2: clip of his attempt to tackle on the sideline with
4:58
Speaker 2: Katano La Depot and and for a.
5:01
Speaker 1: Guy who.
5:03
Speaker 2: Maybe his starting jobs in Jeopardy, probably not, but it's
5:07
Speaker 2: not a good look and it wasn't a good at
5:09
Speaker 2: least he didn't dive out of the way like it was.
5:11
Speaker 1: A goal line play in Chicago in the playoffs.
5:13
Speaker 3: Yeah, you said it well last night, Drew. It's not
5:16
Speaker 3: in his top five worst tackle attempts, but it's definitely
5:20
Speaker 3: but it might be in the top ten. It's definitely
5:22
Speaker 3: not coach day.
5:23
Speaker 2: But it's a tough one to be got a Hall
5:24
Speaker 2: of Shame worthy reel of miss tackle attempts, and this
5:28
Speaker 2: was not It was not a positive look.
5:31
Speaker 1: It wasn't a good look. No.
5:32
Speaker 3: I mean, he is also trying to jump over a
5:34
Speaker 3: teammate to be able to get somebody that's running away
5:36
Speaker 3: from him. If he would have been able to make
5:37
Speaker 3: that tackle after o Latipo's in between him, that would
5:40
Speaker 3: have been an impressive play. But you are looking at
5:42
Speaker 3: somebody who everything that he does is going to be
5:46
Speaker 3: graded on a we hate you scale, Like there's nobody
5:49
Speaker 3: that ever that Packers fans have venom ount more for
5:52
Speaker 3: than Keyshawn Nixon. And there's always gonna be guys on
5:55
Speaker 3: the team that have that spot. There's always gonna be
5:57
Speaker 3: somebody that holds that throne. His is also magnified, though,
6:02
Speaker 3: and and I think understandably so. When there's thoughts that
6:06
Speaker 3: you know, you're asking for a new contract, you're looking
6:08
Speaker 3: for the opportunity. He's played a lot of football and
6:10
Speaker 3: he's making five million dollars no guaranteed money. Any agent
6:13
Speaker 3: worth their salt would be telling him to try to
6:15
Speaker 3: find a way to lock in guaranteed money for I
6:18
Speaker 3: think the reasons that we've all now watched. They are
6:21
Speaker 3: hoping to be able to find somebody that would take
6:23
Speaker 3: him take that spot away.
6:24
Speaker 2: His Q rating has been trending down since he stopped
6:27
Speaker 2: returning kicks and since he expressed the idea that he's
6:31
Speaker 2: like too important.
6:31
Speaker 4: To return yes, bothered, since he got expectations and money
6:35
Speaker 4: and all that.
6:36
Speaker 3: And then it comes with the label of number one
6:40
Speaker 3: corner because that's what he thinks he is and that's
6:42
Speaker 3: how he carries himself.
6:43
Speaker 1: Well, that's what the football team thinks he is.
6:45
Speaker 3: That was what he lined up as last year, right, yeah,
6:48
Speaker 3: again the cornerback? One is is he a co like
6:52
Speaker 3: the number one starter for a baseball.
6:54
Speaker 1: Team or an ace? An ace? Yeah?
6:56
Speaker 3: Would he be the number one on your team? Yes,
6:58
Speaker 3: that's it. Would he be a number three on a
7:00
Speaker 3: team that might be winning a title. One thousand percent
7:03
Speaker 3: but again to say that he was you know self
7:07
Speaker 3: admittedly so also appointed by the team that way as well.
7:10
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
7:12
Speaker 2: But like we said, like you know, there's there's that
7:16
Speaker 2: that element of when you say, guys who woke up
7:19
Speaker 2: on third base and think they hit a triple, you know,
7:21
Speaker 2: because they were they were handed something that. Okay, but
7:25
Speaker 2: by whether but whatever the circumstance, you were handed something
7:28
Speaker 2: that yeah, you know.
7:29
Speaker 3: But again, like Keisha Nixon was also at one point
7:32
Speaker 3: a first team All Pro returner, right, so like you're
7:34
Speaker 3: looking at it, yeah, and seeing where he was there,
7:37
Speaker 3: the team then tries to find another way to put
7:39
Speaker 3: put you onto the team and find different ways to
7:42
Speaker 3: go through and get you opportunities.
7:44
Speaker 1: All I think about is he's not this guy.
7:46
Speaker 3: So immediately people are going to jump on don't compare
7:49
Speaker 3: him to Devin Hester. The Bears wanted to find any
7:53
Speaker 3: different position to be able to get him on into
7:55
Speaker 3: the field. You know what, he was the best kick
7:57
Speaker 3: returner of all time. It's right, but that position and
8:00
Speaker 3: all we're gonna see it now with Sky Moore as well,
8:02
Speaker 3: he saw him last night. They're gonna find ways to
8:04
Speaker 3: try to get off want more out of the spot.
8:07
Speaker 3: But what you're on the team for is that exact purpose.
8:11
Speaker 3: And then once roster implications and what else transpired around
8:16
Speaker 3: you happened, he was forced into another spot, and uh,
8:20
Speaker 3: he has not lived up to that position that they've
8:22
Speaker 3: put him in. They also haven't found guys that have
8:25
Speaker 3: replaced him. They brought in plenty of bodies, so this
8:28
Speaker 3: one now appears that they have one with Brandon Sees
8:30
Speaker 3: and we'll see if he's able to hold off Benjamin
8:32
Speaker 3: Saint Hustin whenever Carrington Valentine gets back onto the line
8:34
Speaker 3: into the lineup, but uh he has uh there the
8:37
Speaker 3: ire is up for Keishawn Nixon. But Packers fans, they're
8:41
Speaker 3: doing something. They're bringing in as much competition as they
8:44
Speaker 3: have at this point, because there wasn't a ton that
8:46
Speaker 3: you were gonna find during the off season outside of
8:49
Speaker 3: the young man that just signed with Seattle.
8:53
Speaker 1: But anybody signing up.
8:54
Speaker 3: Anybody looking to line up to try to sign Terry
8:57
Speaker 3: on Arnold Seahawks grape.
9:00
Speaker 2: Was yeah, and that is stunning that a guy with
9:03
Speaker 2: like what eight pending fell in each.
9:05
Speaker 3: Arge pending fell signed by the Super Bowl champs and
9:10
Speaker 3: the team that's on hard knocks, like you want to
9:12
Speaker 3: talk about protecting the shield and having something on broadcast
9:15
Speaker 3: every night.
9:18
Speaker 2: When you look at that and you say, and Tony
9:20
Speaker 2: Romo is not allowed to work, you.
9:23
Speaker 1: Know that's not that's how you know. It's about the talent.
9:27
Speaker 2: I'm not condoning driving under the influence and Tony Romo
9:31
Speaker 2: let the coorts have.
9:31
Speaker 1: But that's that's how the NFL works A thousand.
9:38
Speaker 2: They're the compromises that they've made and the deals with
9:41
Speaker 2: the devil that they've made. And we're sitting here and like,
9:47
Speaker 2: how can they bring Terry And I don't know that.
9:49
Speaker 2: We're waiting for details on Josh Jacobs, still trying to
9:51
Speaker 2: figure out if those charges. We don't know where that's
9:53
Speaker 2: gonna go.
9:53
Speaker 3: If your talent's good enough usually but again that one
9:58
Speaker 3: one is awaiting charges to actually be filed.
10:01
Speaker 1: One has eight eight fell on the table. Yeah, you
10:07
Speaker 1: could be life in prison.
10:08
Speaker 2: And like basically, you know, first time first I have
10:11
Speaker 2: to ask the barrister because he's the expert. But first
10:13
Speaker 2: offense d u I in Wisconsin is basically a municipal ordnance.
10:16
Speaker 1: Violation basically, and so Drew.
10:22
Speaker 3: It's but they're both horrible, but come on, yes, one
10:24
Speaker 3: thousand percent, and it's what the what the shield is.
10:28
Speaker 1: And the Seahawks is a fascinating team.
10:30
Speaker 3: Because I I missed the first episode of Hard Knocks,
10:34
Speaker 3: I will be watching to see how then if HBO
10:38
Speaker 3: fires in all of that content of the behind the
10:40
Speaker 3: scenes visuals of them.
10:42
Speaker 2: Now it's funny because you know, John Schneider is their GM,
10:46
Speaker 2: hails from the Pier and was with the Packers, and
10:49
Speaker 2: in every conversation is a Ted, you know disciple and
10:52
Speaker 2: Ted and Ron wolf Tree right.
10:53
Speaker 1: He's looking at tape right.
10:55
Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing. But can you, in your wildest
10:58
Speaker 2: imagination at least think of the Packers bringing in a
11:02
Speaker 2: guy who's in Terry and Arnold situation right now?
11:05
Speaker 1: No, No, I could see the harmon running on the
11:11
Speaker 1: field before I could.
11:12
Speaker 2: I remember one of the chilling one of the most
11:14
Speaker 2: chilling moments in Packers press conference history. And there's been
11:17
Speaker 2: a few, just like when Bart Star screamed at Dave Beagle,
11:19
Speaker 2: what do you know about comeback ability?
11:21
Speaker 1: And stuff like that.
11:22
Speaker 2: Really there was some epic meltdowns, like basically like Bartstar
11:28
Speaker 2: wouldn't talk to the press of Beagle was in the
11:30
Speaker 2: room for one point Bartlett rest in rest in peace,
11:33
Speaker 2: Dave Beagle. But it was when the Packers acquired Corn Robinson,
11:37
Speaker 2: who had like I think two d uys in his
11:39
Speaker 2: class or something. Yeah, and Sed Thompson in a rare
11:43
Speaker 2: moment at the at the podium and Cliff Crystal, working
11:46
Speaker 2: for the Journal Sentinel, My teammate said, what are you
11:50
Speaker 2: going to do if this guy kills somebody on the
11:52
Speaker 2: roads in Green Bay? Like what what's the organization? But
11:56
Speaker 2: what's the stance? How do you answer that? I mean,
12:00
Speaker 2: they had a guy full time, like driving him and
12:02
Speaker 2: staying with him, basically, the baby said, But there was
12:05
Speaker 2: there's no answer to that, right, And so.
12:08
Speaker 4: That's that's a tough thing for gms. What are you
12:12
Speaker 4: going to do now people because they want to make.
12:13
Speaker 2: Them What are you gonna do if this guy's allowed
12:15
Speaker 2: to play? And then you're getting into the playoff time
12:17
Speaker 2: and then I'll hear come.
12:18
Speaker 3: The charges that he's going to be bound for trial
12:21
Speaker 3: or you know, like oh boy, one hundred percent. But
12:23
Speaker 3: it was one and it was one of the more
12:26
Speaker 3: crazy conversations because you.
12:29
Speaker 1: I was a young Packer fan at that time.
12:31
Speaker 3: They had never been in any scroll with any player
12:35
Speaker 3: with a problem at that point and they have him
12:37
Speaker 3: brought in.
12:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't. You can't answer that.
12:40
Speaker 3: One with any clear A former ninth overall pick, he
12:43
Speaker 3: was going to get opportunity and uh, terry on Arnold
12:45
Speaker 3: again for first round pick.
12:47
Speaker 1: Somebody was gonna give him another chance.
12:49
Speaker 3: And they decided, Yeah, why would we wait for that
12:52
Speaker 3: legal process to play out? The complete opposite of college football.
12:55
Speaker 3: I just wait for all the courts in Congress to
12:57
Speaker 3: be able to give us the answers.
12:58
Speaker 1: The NFL is like, I don't know, we're not waiting
13:00
Speaker 1: for it.
13:02
Speaker 4: There were issues some guys had when they were here,
13:04
Speaker 4: but not to bring in. The closest thing is Andre
13:07
Speaker 4: when they brought him in, But it wasn't under any
13:09
Speaker 4: certain like no legal issue, just you know the left
13:13
Speaker 4: I was just burning his shoes, yeah.
13:15
Speaker 1: Burning his house down. Yeah.
13:16
Speaker 2: So yeah, that was that was you know, cloudy. And
13:19
Speaker 2: he ended up he ended up being a good packer
13:21
Speaker 2: and a contributor.
13:22
Speaker 4: Great pick up for that year and all that stuff,
13:24
Speaker 4: and they and they stuck with Brooks after that and
13:26
Speaker 4: then gave him the deal and not rising.
13:28
Speaker 2: But that's just the way it goes sometimes you know, yeah,
13:30
Speaker 2: so yeah, and well and again like here we are saying,
13:32
Speaker 2: how can they sign him? And well, Josh Jacobs is
13:35
Speaker 2: practicing didn't play last night because of his growing.
13:39
Speaker 3: Or so we're told, Yeah, but you know, uh I,
13:45
Speaker 3: I I totally get it. But again, different different thousand, different, different, different,
13:51
Speaker 3: different circumstances.
13:52
Speaker 2: So it's like, is it hypocritical of us to the
13:55
Speaker 2: arch and eye Browns. How can the Seahouse bring that
13:56
Speaker 2: guy in when the Packers are waiting for Josh Jacobs
13:58
Speaker 2: to be cleared so he can play.
14:01
Speaker 3: The Johnny Jolly name is Steve. This is Steve brings in.
14:04
Speaker 3: That was also another one that Latroit Guy on was
14:07
Speaker 3: was one long past after there? Oh yeah, now that'll
14:10
Speaker 3: be the talking text line for the next couple of minutes.
14:12
Speaker 1: Well, and didn't we have us?
14:16
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say, Sidarius making the weed run with the
14:18
Speaker 2: boys coming back from Chicago from Chicagohny was it Johnny
14:22
Speaker 2: Jolly or LaTroy guy on both heads?
14:24
Speaker 1: They both Yeah, did you mention that I was?
14:27
Speaker 3: I was doing your next line stuff, especially like the lean. Yeah.
14:35
Speaker 2: So when it comes to this though, and again, like
14:39
Speaker 2: the league, well as the NFL steered clear of some
14:44
Speaker 2: of the gambling issues, like we have you.
14:46
Speaker 1: Know, well they'll they'll take a hard line there.
14:48
Speaker 2: Guardians lost a closer that's not playing. And we have
14:51
Speaker 2: guys who are you know.
14:51
Speaker 3: Isaiah Rodgers who played for the Vikings last year, really
14:55
Speaker 3: really well, he missed a full year. He's probably the
14:57
Speaker 3: most notable guy that's been able to come back from
15:00
Speaker 3: the one year suspension.
15:01
Speaker 1: I think they watched suspended. Eight guys watch the NFL.
15:05
Speaker 2: Without getting hammered with the gambling ads and stuff. So
15:08
Speaker 2: it's like that's the best part of the two. So again,
15:10
Speaker 2: slippery slopes. But it is interesting that that guy got
15:15
Speaker 2: a gig I guess it.
15:16
Speaker 1: But not that he got a gig, but that he
15:18
Speaker 1: got a gig from the raining.
15:19
Speaker 3: Super Bowl super Bowl Champs before camp's even done. Like
15:23
Speaker 3: they didn't even wait, I don't even know they waited
15:26
Speaker 3: for an injury. They just said, actually, let's just jump
15:28
Speaker 3: on this. They got them.
15:30
Speaker 2: We haven't mentioned because we it's still fresh and it
15:33
Speaker 2: seems like we're still in the packers ot.
15:35
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, yes, I don't know what we
15:37
Speaker 3: said on that show. In this show, we haven't mentioned that.
15:41
Speaker 2: It was cool that every all the TV station went
15:43
Speaker 2: because of Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers did
15:45
Speaker 2: not play, but he had fun, you know, tapping it
15:49
Speaker 2: up with all of his buddies and the equipment guys
15:51
Speaker 2: he loved.
15:51
Speaker 1: I will say this about Aaron Rodgers.
15:53
Speaker 2: He loves those guys, the equipment guys and the ushers
15:56
Speaker 2: and like the people that he saw every day. Like
15:58
Speaker 2: he genuine His affection for those people I don't think
16:02
Speaker 2: is fake or in any way right not real.
16:05
Speaker 3: No, all that love that those people he loved. That
16:08
Speaker 3: part of it, that part of the personal touch. He
16:11
Speaker 3: keeps that thing very very tight. I also thought, shout out,
16:14
Speaker 3: we're not doing game balls and kicks the balls on
16:16
Speaker 3: this Friday. That feels like a game day or a
16:18
Speaker 3: game after day after game Monday. Carly Morana nice work
16:21
Speaker 3: on the broadcast. She had really a really, really cool
16:24
Speaker 3: feature with Mike and the crossover with her dad and
16:28
Speaker 3: McCarthy growing up. It was cool to see that kind
16:31
Speaker 3: of attention. Paid it again once the broadcast kicked in,
16:35
Speaker 3: re emphasized what we talked about in the morning yesterday.
16:38
Speaker 3: That game should have been Crow, Barton and Lamba. That's right,
16:41
Speaker 3: there is zero reason why the NFL didn't say, hold
16:44
Speaker 3: up here real quick.
16:45
Speaker 1: Let's let Aaron Rodgers take a victory lapse, say goodbye.
16:48
Speaker 3: H Matt, you want to go hang out with your brother,
16:50
Speaker 3: you guys are gonna have to do it in Scottsdale. Okay,
16:52
Speaker 3: God forbid you guys go over to old town Scottsdale.
16:55
Speaker 1: No way, I'm gonna complain. Sucks to be.
16:56
Speaker 3: You go to the Biltmore and you'll have a great time.
16:59
Speaker 3: We're gonna move this one to Green Bay because we
17:01
Speaker 3: want to see these guys have one.
17:04
Speaker 1: That would have been optimal.
17:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, seeing, but so Rogers did not play, but he
17:08
Speaker 2: tapped up people and.
17:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah it was cool.
17:10
Speaker 4: And you know the picture he had with the real
17:13
Speaker 4: big Mike, Mike Clements, did you guys I saw that.
17:15
Speaker 1: In the tunnel. That was so great, right, the selfie?
17:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Mike's how everybody you say, this press conference
17:22
Speaker 3: with the local media was.
17:23
Speaker 2: You know, that was a nice touch that he did
17:25
Speaker 2: that when he knew he wasn't gonna play.
17:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also shout out to Bob Dmowski for muting
17:29
Speaker 3: himself just to give us a good throwback at twenty twenty.
17:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, I made remind us of the COVID days.
17:35
Speaker 2: You're muted Bobby, muted Bobby, and then Rogers brings it
17:39
Speaker 2: up like your back, Oh, Bob will relate to this
17:41
Speaker 2: when you're trying to golf and your back's not listen
17:43
Speaker 2: enough to get older.
17:46
Speaker 1: It was good moments.
17:47
Speaker 3: So he's gonna be how many more rounds do you
17:50
Speaker 3: think Aaron's gonna play at Green Bay Country Club that
17:52
Speaker 3: he mentioned in there would have been good to be
17:53
Speaker 3: able to get back there at dinner at Shives.
17:55
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good Dives got so much run from
17:57

19:53
Speaker 1: You got the Selsias rolling this way good.
19:56
Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm going to see the seventh
19:57
Speaker 2: inning of the Brewers game tonight, hopefully, if there's a
19:59
Speaker 2: nap in my future, maybe a pool side nap.
20:01
Speaker 1: If the sun is shining, we'll see. But you're gonna
20:04
Speaker 1: see the sun. It just sucks? Is it out there?
20:07
Speaker 1: Pissing me on? Well? Right now?
20:09
Speaker 3: As a well, I just mean, like in general, the
20:11
Speaker 3: last we had. Yeah, as a fat it's it's a
20:15
Speaker 3: good thing, right cast is my friend.
20:18
Speaker 1: But I would like to see it.
20:19
Speaker 2: I'd like to see like two or three hours of
20:21
Speaker 2: extended sunshine which we've not seen in like we're getting.
20:24
Speaker 4: We're getting times of sun and clouds, highs in the
20:26
Speaker 4: upper seventies and low's upper sixties, and you might get some.
20:31
Speaker 1: There's been a chance of rain pretty much every day.
20:33
Speaker 1: We had no rain in July, and now we're getting
20:35
Speaker 1: at all.
20:35
Speaker 2: It just sucks anyway, Uh, golf is not here today,
20:40
Speaker 2: and we've reached halftime of today's additional hustle without Dolf
20:44
Speaker 2: Wenna play a little uh you know.
20:45
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, back here among the tire and strip club ass,
20:47
Speaker 1: I love this game. I love this the stories. The
20:51
Speaker 1: main stories today are.
20:53
Speaker 2: Of course, the Brewers with their victory of the season,
20:56
Speaker 2: coming back to snatch victory from the Jaws to defeet
20:58
Speaker 2: and beat the Dodgers. I think that's the straight regular
21:00
Speaker 2: season game against victory against the Dodgers in any event,
21:03
Speaker 2: definitely getting swept in San Diego, and then turnaround and
21:08
Speaker 2: winning that game with a character winning the way they did.
21:10
Speaker 2: Huge Packers preseason opener, Trace Mac three field goals.
21:14
Speaker 1: We talked about that.
21:16
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, back here among the tired strip club ads, the
21:18
Speaker 2: Bucks released their schedule yesterday.
21:20
Speaker 3: All right, come on now, and a raucous number of
21:25
Speaker 3: primetime games I imagine, yeah, all over ESPN and the uh.
21:31
Speaker 2: The Yannis exit has created a vacuum for nationally televised
21:35
Speaker 2: Bucks games.
21:35
Speaker 1: They have two schedules, a grand total of two and
21:37
Speaker 1: against who against the Miami Heat.
21:39
Speaker 4: But now we'll see right belly, So now we'll see
21:42
Speaker 4: who the real Bucks fans are.
21:43
Speaker 1: That's true. I've been waiting for this all right now.
21:46
Speaker 2: But Christmas and Easter will arrive, as we like to say,
21:49
Speaker 2: January twenty eighth at fives Er Forum when the Heat
21:52
Speaker 2: make their visit their only visit and Yiannis comes back, So.
21:54
Speaker 1: That will be the hottest The highest price is the
21:57
Speaker 1: highest price ticket of the season.
21:58
Speaker 2: That's the one ticket that's more than an opening night
22:01
Speaker 2: against Chicago whatever that is October twenty third or whatever
22:04
Speaker 2: that is or October twenty fifty.
22:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also I don't love that it's against Chicago,
22:08
Speaker 3: but you know, listen, the Baby Bowls, no one really
22:09
Speaker 3: cares about that much down.
22:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think the Bucks will be interesting
22:13
Speaker 2: to watch at times this year. There might be a
22:15
Speaker 2: nice diversion, but obviously that's the game that everybody's going
22:18
Speaker 2: to want to see locally, and that's be the highest
22:21
Speaker 2: rated game on my twenty four and the network of
22:24
Speaker 2: over the air stations that they've cobbled together.
22:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also in the midst of the two nationally
22:30
Speaker 3: televised game.
22:30
Speaker 1: It's also a little bit of a slap in the face.
22:32
Speaker 3: That's an eight thirty tip for the local crowd here
22:35
Speaker 3: in Milwaukee on the day that Giannis does return to Milwaukee.
22:38
Speaker 3: But that will be a night that everybody wants to
22:40
Speaker 3: see that. That's the whole point in the one thing
22:44
Speaker 3: to celebrate. But I am excited to watch Braden Burry's
22:46
Speaker 3: and company play. I as a Whitnell Falcon am very
22:50
Speaker 3: excited to see Tyler Herro play for the hometown team, understand,
22:53
Speaker 3: and also to see how well he plays to hopefully
22:55
Speaker 3: be able to flip him at the deadline and get
22:57
Speaker 3: even more draft assets.
22:58
Speaker 1: That's another point, you know.
23:00
Speaker 4: I mean, you have you have something young exciting players,
23:02
Speaker 4: and don't forget about the other guys you got in
23:04
Speaker 4: that trade. Heimi Haskez and all those guys. I mean,
23:07
Speaker 4: there's there's gonna be an interest there if you are.
23:09
Speaker 3: I thought they were gonna trade hawk As to UH
23:12
Speaker 3: for Peyton Watson.
23:12
Speaker 1: So that's why I haven't been getting in on the
23:14
Speaker 1: Heimi hawk As one yet.
23:15
Speaker 3: I want I wanted to figure out I've been being
23:17
Speaker 3: told by all these different NBA uh gms online that
23:21
Speaker 3: they were gonna go trade for this Peyton Watson CAF
23:23
Speaker 3: from the Nuggets.
23:24
Speaker 1: Well, well I kept here.
23:24
Speaker 4: We're gonna flip Hero too, So I didn't want to
23:27
Speaker 4: get really into invested yet in the hometown hero thing yet.
23:30
Speaker 4: But I think we're keep I think we're gonna try
23:32
Speaker 4: and the Bucks is gonna try and win next year
23:34
Speaker 4: because there's no point in tanking. They don't have a
23:36
Speaker 4: pick unless they acquire one, right, unless they acquire one.
23:39
Speaker 3: Well, they're also not gonna acquire their own. So yeah,
23:41
Speaker 3: to your point, they're not incentivized to lose. They're not
23:44
Speaker 3: incentivized to be the worst. Yeah, they wouldn't say they
23:46
Speaker 3: wouldn't have their own, so it wouldn't matter anyway.
23:48
Speaker 1: That's a good point. I don't have brain farts unless
23:50
Speaker 1: New Orleans wants to give it back and just be nice. Yeah,
23:52
Speaker 1: that's I guess possible. But but there's interest.
23:54
Speaker 4: So it's like no nationally televised games, but you do
23:57
Speaker 4: have the free TV.
23:58
Speaker 1: So I mean, if you.
24:00
Speaker 3: Like seeing armand loves anything that's free, I say free
24:03
Speaker 3: it's me and give me three hundred if it's Army.
24:07
Speaker 4: I know this little hero conflict. I like being around
24:09
Speaker 4: my teams when everyone else is kicking them around. Okay,
24:11
Speaker 4: now you know I was here when when when we
24:13
Speaker 4: lost a hundred six games in all two. Now you
24:15
Speaker 4: know I'm here when the Bucks are rebuilding and when
24:17
Speaker 4: Billy was the ball boy, and.
24:19
Speaker 1: This will be in the future.
24:20
Speaker 3: This is the good test case to uh, this is
24:22
Speaker 3: what the Royals were in a couple of years ago.
24:24
Speaker 3: Right the Hey, you sold everything, he did everything you
24:27
Speaker 3: could to win the title. Would you take one title
24:30
Speaker 3: to ten years of suck?
24:31
Speaker 1: All right?
24:32
Speaker 3: Well, if you always say yes, Drew, why don't they
24:35
Speaker 3: call You got a number for somebody that they could call.
24:37
Speaker 1: For season tickets? Right? Yeah, you got ten pack. You
24:41
Speaker 1: better go in there and get one of those packages.
24:44
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, back here among the tired strip club ads in
24:46
Speaker 2: the NFL slate last evening, I think the most interesting
24:48
Speaker 2: game because we're going to be following the Cardinals tangentially.
24:51
Speaker 2: They're coming to Green Bay for the joint practice and
24:53
Speaker 2: the Lafleur family reunion. Cardinals beat the Raiders last night
24:57
Speaker 2: twenty seven fourteen. They did use him in the Hall
25:00
Speaker 2: of Fame game, but they unleashed the number three overall
25:03
Speaker 2: picked Jeremiah Love quick feet, good runner. He had eleven
25:08
Speaker 2: carries for fifty eight yards five yards of carry. He
25:11
Speaker 2: was fining holes, took some hits. Also caught three passes
25:14
Speaker 2: for fourteen yards. So his career is now underway. He
25:18
Speaker 2: broke the seal. He did nice on that shot. Yeah,
25:22
Speaker 2: and so Mike.
25:23
Speaker 1: Lafleur is now two and oh.
25:25
Speaker 2: And they might not win two regular season games, but
25:27
Speaker 2: they're two and oh in the preseason.
25:29
Speaker 1: No one and one actually because they lost.
25:31
Speaker 3: They ended up losing the game on that miraculous I
25:34
Speaker 3: forgot end of the.
25:35
Speaker 1: Game play, but I had that as a win. And
25:36
Speaker 1: then they snatched feet from.
25:39
Speaker 3: The jaws, but also drew. They've played two of the
25:42
Speaker 3: most thrilling preseason games you could have. Yesterday, in the
25:45
Speaker 3: first half, the Cardinals went fifteen for fifteen at quarterback.
25:50
Speaker 3: I think it was ten for ten for Gardner Minshew,
25:52
Speaker 3: five for five for Jacoby Brissett, who held out for
25:54
Speaker 3: that super massive contract extension that he got. Also threw
25:58
Speaker 3: a touchdown pass, but interesting one there for the Gardener.
26:01
Speaker 2: The other side of that game was the Raiders, where
26:03
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins presided over a scoring drive in his only
26:07
Speaker 2: series of work ten plays sixty eight yards. He was
26:10
Speaker 2: five or six for fifty yards. He found tight end
26:13
Speaker 2: Michael Meyer in the end zone for thirteen yard TD
26:17
Speaker 2: and then Fernando Mendoza stepped onto the field and he
26:20
Speaker 2: showed some resilience. First drive wasn't great too in completions one.
26:25
Speaker 2: And then the second drive, oh, he started to he
26:29
Speaker 2: started to find himself.
26:30
Speaker 3: A little bit, just a little bit on that ten
26:32
Speaker 3: play touchdown drive there, and no kidding.
26:34
Speaker 4: There's definitely excitement, understandably so, but I love it's like
26:37
Speaker 4: slow starting, No know, his resilience, there was.
26:39
Speaker 2: Some resilience, and Mike Washington took over that drive to
26:42
Speaker 2: fifty three yards of rushing in that.
26:43
Speaker 3: And Mike Washington was the guy that I thought the
26:45
Speaker 3: Packers were going to be potentially in Andrew during the
26:47
Speaker 3: draft process. He was the bat one of the running
26:51
Speaker 3: backs that came right after Jeremiah Love.
26:53
Speaker 1: I think he was the third guy off the board
26:55
Speaker 1: from Arkansas.
26:55
Speaker 2: And so even though he's the number one overall pick
26:57
Speaker 2: for a rookie quarterback, first series three and out, wobbly,
27:01
Speaker 2: second series presided over touch on drive, third series three
27:05
Speaker 2: and out, and then the fourth and final drive puts
27:08
Speaker 2: him in the field goal range, and he finished the
27:10
Speaker 2: night ten to sixteen ninety seven yards.
27:12
Speaker 3: He was pressured on a lot of his drop back, Yeah,
27:15
Speaker 3: he was. He was under some siege back there from
27:16
Speaker 3: what it looked like. He was sacked once, but he
27:18
Speaker 3: faced some pressure. He had a much better night than
27:22
Speaker 3: poor Aid and OC was also there. And then they
27:24
Speaker 3: keep bringing up in the midst of the quarterback conversations
27:27
Speaker 3: in Las Vegas, did they give him that polo shirt
27:31
Speaker 3: that he walked in in like in his welcome package?
27:34
Speaker 1: Did you see it?
27:36
Speaker 3: It literally says like has the raider logo and then
27:39
Speaker 3: says player underneath it, like, yeah, no, Fernando, Fernando legitimately
27:45
Speaker 3: looks like Arman.
27:46
Speaker 1: You gotta look at a picture of it. That's it
27:48
Speaker 1: looks like that.
27:49
Speaker 3: It looks like the like Catholic school or private school
27:53
Speaker 3: school uniform polo shirt that you're gonna have with the
27:56
Speaker 3: big old logo of the school right there.
27:58
Speaker 1: I liked it. But he is, he's fitting in into
28:01
Speaker 1: the NFL.
28:02
Speaker 3: He's gonna be one of the most talked about players
28:05
Speaker 3: possible to see. Does Kurt Signetti's offense just work in college?
28:09
Speaker 3: Because he's also boasted now Drew Right. I've had a
28:12
Speaker 3: first team All conference quarterback every single year. Maybe Fananle
28:15
Speaker 3: Mendoza is that transcendent, or maybe it's just more finger
28:19
Speaker 3: and paint he dust from that Kurtz Signetti.
28:21
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, back here among the tyron circle of ads, Bengals
28:24
Speaker 2: beat the Lions sixteen to fourteen. The Lions, though Teddy
28:29
Speaker 2: Bridgewater's sudden retirement opened it up for Luke Altmeyer, the
28:34
Speaker 2: fighting a line I cat drafted out of Illinois thirteen
28:38
Speaker 2: for twenty one hundred and thirty yards with a touchdown,
28:41
Speaker 2: two interceptions, but a generally solid performance. And then Josh
28:45
Speaker 2: Jobs is now the backup who got into towns. He
28:48
Speaker 2: entered the game in the second quarter splitting snaps there
28:52
Speaker 2: and he was four for eight off the street for
28:55
Speaker 2: thirty two yards.
28:56
Speaker 3: So did Teddy Bridgewater just decide that coaching high school
28:59
Speaker 3: football is actually better than being in the NFL even
29:02
Speaker 3: if you get in trouble, you get in trouble, I
29:04
Speaker 3: might as well still go back. Just that was really
29:07
Speaker 3: out of the blue, because it wasn't. I didn't know
29:10
Speaker 3: that he was gonna have. Did he have a Vonte
29:11
Speaker 3: Davis moment where he's like you know what, these young
29:14
Speaker 3: cats are way too good.
29:15
Speaker 1: I'm out of here, just leaving, I mean just.
29:16
Speaker 3: Leave right after practice because he just didn't say that
29:19
Speaker 3: he had it anymore.
29:20
Speaker 1: It's probably an interesting story if Anionly ever.
29:22
Speaker 4: Got to talk to him about and I'm sure he'll
29:23
Speaker 4: be on the podcast someday. But yeah, he came back
29:26
Speaker 4: out ofwards. We'll probably tell Adams. Yeah, probably exactly, Kate,
29:28
Speaker 4: we'll get that. But it's like, you know, most guys,
29:31
Speaker 4: You're right, Billy, don't turn down jobs like that, is
29:33
Speaker 4: that they play as long as they can. I mean,
29:35
Speaker 4: you know, And but he's like, no, I'm good. You know,
29:37
Speaker 4: I got what I needed out of this second second career.
29:40
Speaker 1: In that game too, Drew. Uh.
29:42
Speaker 3: Do the Bengals have the oldest quarterback room in the world. Yes,
29:46
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow sure, Uh suddenly Uh mid veteran right in
29:51
Speaker 3: the midst of his prime of his career, Sean Clifford
29:53
Speaker 3: young man from the Green Bay Packers, but Joe Flacco
29:56
Speaker 3: and Josh Johnson olds for first round pick from.
30:00
Speaker 1: Two thousand and eight.
30:02
Speaker 3: Yes, with Joe Flacco Josh Johnson also of the two
30:05
Speaker 3: thousand and eight draft class. My god, Blaco's gotta be
30:09
Speaker 3: one of the first player coaches we've seen it.
30:11
Speaker 1: I mean, he's got to become that. That's my next
30:13
Speaker 1: goal for Flacco.
30:14
Speaker 4: Like play coach, I want you to literally have a headset,
30:17
Speaker 4: but not just as a player suited up like you know,
30:20
Speaker 4: have the the Microsoft surface had the pad one.
30:23
Speaker 1: Hundred and thirty eight years between the four fall. That's epic.
30:29
Speaker 2: Back here among the Terrenstrip Club adds and the most
30:31
Speaker 2: preseason results ever, the Patriots and Colts tied.
30:36
Speaker 4: The biggest thing from that game was U was a
30:39
Speaker 4: brable chuck in the challenge flag, right.
30:42
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know so, Like it was this phone when
30:44
Speaker 1: the New York Post texted him again, that was a
30:49
Speaker 1: good one. I was waiting for something. I'd been sitting
30:51
Speaker 1: on that one. I had been sitting on that one
30:53
Speaker 1: for a while. I knew he probably wasn't the right time.
30:55
Speaker 2: That's okay this because one of the notable plays was
31:00
Speaker 2: that the first round pick for the Patriots, they're tackle
31:03
Speaker 2: Caleb Lomo. Okay, Yeah, and his most significant play was
31:08
Speaker 2: a borderline questionable ineligible man downfield penalty that wiped out
31:12
Speaker 2: a big play. So Vrabel's got to be pissed about that.
31:16
Speaker 2: Come on, stripes, let's go. What are we doing? What
31:20
Speaker 2: do we big night for rookies, the Texans unveiled their
31:24
Speaker 2: starting uh rookie center Keelan Rutledge played one driver.
31:28
Speaker 3: Let's go, he's a solid starter already. He's just like
31:31
Speaker 3: in trench to treating him like a veteran.
31:33
Speaker 1: So one start, one drive, you're in. Uh oh.
31:36
Speaker 3: In that game, Graham Mertz went down with an injury.
31:38
Speaker 3: Former Badger get some action with the Texans.
31:40
Speaker 1: That's oh, Graham, I didn't know he was out there.
31:42
Speaker 2: Titans beat the forty nine ers nineteen to thirteen. But
31:45
Speaker 2: the Titans played both of their first round picks, Carnel
31:47
Speaker 2: Tait and Keldric Fox. They starts and they got they
31:50
Speaker 2: got targeted, but they held up pretty well.
31:52
Speaker 4: They had some sweet oiler looking kind of throwback. Is
31:56
Speaker 4: that what they're gonna wear? That's those are their news? Yeah?
31:58
Speaker 4: I like that a lot, right, speaking of a hosiery
32:01
Speaker 4: really quick packers. Last night again in the White Sox,
32:04
Speaker 4: Oh gosh, yeah, can we go back to the green socks?
32:06
Speaker 4: I just I gotta maybe it's over. Maybe I should
32:08
Speaker 4: just stop with this crusade.
32:10
Speaker 1: They said last year, it's over forever.
32:12
Speaker 4: I thought they were so I thought they were going
32:14
Speaker 4: to try it for the year. They said, I didn't
32:16
Speaker 4: know it was going to be the future.
32:18
Speaker 3: Okay, that's like that's like when your high school girlfriend said,
32:20
Speaker 3: I think we should maybe just see other people and
32:22
Speaker 3: just try it.
32:23
Speaker 1: Take a break. Yeah, okay, what's the breakover? That means
32:26
Speaker 1: it's over, It's done, all right.
32:29
Speaker 2: Also the last story for a meanwhile, back here among
32:31
Speaker 2: the tyrant triple heads, like we can talk about jayde
32:33
Speaker 2: and Daniels bitching about his number, and we can talk about.
32:36
Speaker 1: That dude's back. Did the Aces make the playoffs?
32:40
Speaker 4: Arm?
32:40
Speaker 1: And they did? They clinched last night. Let's go oh yeah.
32:45
Speaker 2: And in news that you know would percolate in the
32:47
Speaker 2: NL Central and down the down the line, Hunter Green
32:52
Speaker 2: of the Reds is on the shelf. We'll have Tommy
32:55
Speaker 2: John surgery for the second time. He's out the rest
32:58
Speaker 2: of this year and all of next.
33:00
Speaker 3: And all of next year for the number of the
33:02
Speaker 3: former number one overall pick.
33:04
Speaker 1: He was on. The Sports Illustrated had.
33:06
Speaker 2: A cover story on him, saying, baseball is Lebron or
33:09
Speaker 2: the new Babe Ruth because he's the headline. The caption
33:12
Speaker 2: was he's seventeen, he mashes, he throws one hundred and two.
33:15
Speaker 2: Hunter Green is in the star Baseball needs, but first
33:17
Speaker 2: he has to finish high.
33:18
Speaker 1: School and that is no one can live up to that.
33:20
Speaker 1: The next Babe Ruth.
33:21
Speaker 2: He was a two way player for Notre Dame High
33:23
Speaker 2: School in Sherman Oaks. He hit one hundred and two
33:26
Speaker 2: on the radar gun and he hit.
33:27
Speaker 3: Four hundred and fifty foot homers now Arman, Yeah, yeah,
33:31
Speaker 3: nobody could live up to that, except there might be
33:33
Speaker 3: somebody that is. Well, I do remember somebody getting that
33:37
Speaker 3: tag coming over from Japan.
33:39
Speaker 4: Okay, but no one told him at seventeen you gotta
33:41
Speaker 4: be babe maybe right.
33:43
Speaker 3: No, he just told everybody else. Yeah, everybody else, I'm
33:46
Speaker 3: gonna do it and you might have to check with manny.
33:49
Speaker 3: I think that was one of the first years that
33:52
Speaker 3: they televised the draft. Yeah, and mostly because Hunter Green
33:56
Speaker 3: was the star and star attraction ago.
34:00
Speaker 2: He dominated the Cubs with seven innings and twelve punch outs.
34:04
Speaker 2: And now he's on the shelf.
34:05
Speaker 1: For He's talented and coming back from.
34:08
Speaker 2: Two years and he signed a six year, fifty three
34:10
Speaker 2: million dollar deal in April of twenty three, banking on
34:14
Speaker 2: his talent, and now he's on the shelf.
34:16
Speaker 1: And now he's on the shelf.
34:17
Speaker 3: And a couple of weeks ago he was day of
34:20
Speaker 3: the deadline, one of the hot names that was thought
34:23
Speaker 3: to be available. You might be able to pry Hunter
34:26
Speaker 3: Green out of Cincinnati. You might be able to get him.
34:28
Speaker 3: Maybe they knew something, or maybe they should have struck
34:30
Speaker 3: while the iron was hot.
34:32
Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, that's gonna be a tough one to sit back.
34:36
Speaker 4: That's hard emotionally when you put so much into a
34:38
Speaker 4: prospect to just say, all.
34:40
Speaker 1: Right, we got to take a break.
34:41
Speaker 2: Otherwise, back here by the time strikklevets, we're going to
34:43
Speaker 2: be reading bowling on our scores and stuff and holes
34:45
Speaker 2: in one.
34:46
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna be telling you about them.
34:47
Speaker 3: They use magic Johnson highlight tape that I'm watching, Happy
34:50
Speaker 3: Birthday Magic.
34:51
Speaker 1: Yep, there you go.
34:51
Speaker 2: When we come back, though, I will once again I
34:54
Speaker 2: like to call out my own hypocrisy, and I will
34:56
Speaker 2: do that next. You're in the huddle Fox Sports Radio
34:59
Speaker 2: Wiscon Drew billion Arman huddled up on a Friday in
35:03
Speaker 2: the good Land eight seven seven seven nine four seven
35:06
Speaker 2: three gets you into the nicolay lot dot com talk
35:08
Speaker 2: and text line. We make it a point on this
35:10
Speaker 2: program to call it hypocrisy, especially when it emanates from.
35:13
Speaker 1: Our own studio.
35:15
Speaker 2: And I will raise my hand right now and say
35:18
Speaker 2: that while I am on record and Armand knows this,
35:20
Speaker 2: that I think the movie Field of Dreams is a
35:22
Speaker 2: steaming pile of dumb.
35:25
Speaker 1: It is not a baseball movie.
35:27
Speaker 2: And it is not a good movie in any way,
35:29
Speaker 2: shape or form in terms of the story. And Matt
35:31
Speaker 2: Miller and I can go at this really hard if
35:33
Speaker 2: we want to go really get deep into the weeds.
35:36
Speaker 2: But it's cool that they play the game in Iowa
35:38
Speaker 2: and a cornfield and that they had twenty six Hall
35:40
Speaker 2: of Famers walk out of the cornfield before the game
35:42
Speaker 2: last night.
35:42
Speaker 3: I look good man, can be true? Yep, I agree
35:45
Speaker 3: with you. Two things can both be true.
35:48
Speaker 4: I love that because I wasn't expecting that take from you.
35:50
Speaker 4: I was getting ready for you to make fun of
35:52
Speaker 4: the whole thing. So I'm glad you did because I
35:54
Speaker 4: loved it. Right well, those guys walked out.
35:56
Speaker 3: Damn you love anything more than Paul Mallader as the
36:00
Speaker 3: Wins are playing in the game walking out in a
36:02
Speaker 3: Brewers uniform.
36:02
Speaker 1: No, that was cool.
36:03
Speaker 4: I mean because Paul has always associated himself with the
36:08
Speaker 4: Brewers in terms of the most important part of his career.
36:10
Speaker 4: I know he went to Toronto, and we know about
36:12
Speaker 4: Dad in Minnesota.
36:13
Speaker 1: But he's always been a guy that sad.
36:14
Speaker 4: I remember he famously I have to go into the
36:16
Speaker 4: halls of Brewer all these things.
36:18
Speaker 1: Yep, you had him maur Well.
36:22
Speaker 3: I think C c was there, wasn't he A bunch
36:24
Speaker 3: of twenty six guys. Jim Tom was in there.
36:27
Speaker 2: Yep, twenty six guys walked out of the corn and
36:29
Speaker 2: I saw Veskersen walked out and then walked back in.
36:32
Speaker 1: He's like, I just realized.
36:33
Speaker 2: I just remember that there's a taco stand in a
36:35
Speaker 2: recliner back in the cornfield.
36:37
Speaker 1: He walked out.
36:40
Speaker 4: Now, Buddy, sorry, Billy. I was just gonna say, Buddy
36:42
Speaker 4: Man was there. But there's bleachers now and stuff. I
36:45
Speaker 4: was like, did that ruin the vibe? He's like, no,
36:46
Speaker 4: it's pretty awesome. Oh sweet, an awesome thing to see
36:49
Speaker 4: lives in Iowan and his kids when and he said
36:52
Speaker 4: that his young kids were excited because seeing the movie
36:56
Speaker 4: feel the Dreams made them feel like important as a
36:58
Speaker 4: sports fan in Iowa for the because they don't have
37:00
Speaker 4: maitlexue sports. So they're like, we're special, We're in Iowa.
37:04
Speaker 2: Good teams are coming here, a real ones again. The
37:06
Speaker 2: Cliff's notes on why I hate the movie. First of all,
37:08
Speaker 2: I don't consider it really a baseball movie, and the inaccuracies.
37:12
Speaker 2: Shulis Joe Jackson portrayed as kind of a hero in
37:14
Speaker 2: this movie when he's actually the original Pete Rose right
37:17
Speaker 2: fixed the World Series in nineteen nineteen. He was a
37:21
Speaker 2: left handed guy from South Carolina played by a right
37:24
Speaker 2: handed guy, ray Leota from Brooklyn with a Brooklyn accent. Yeah,
37:28
Speaker 2: that's a tough one to get over if you're any
37:29
Speaker 2: kind of baseball historian or purists. But the story, the
37:32
Speaker 2: premise of the story that this guy ray Cansella's decision
37:37
Speaker 2: to plow under three acres of crops is going to
37:40
Speaker 2: bankrupt the farm, like three acres really.
37:43
Speaker 4: Well, Margins, I mean really, and that was right after
37:46
Speaker 4: the farm crisis and the eighty acres it was.
37:49
Speaker 1: But I don't know, I don't know farming, okay, And
37:52
Speaker 1: it's the but it's the father son relationship.
37:54
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, they don't develop that though, other than
37:57
Speaker 2: arguing about like you know, the kid didn't like baseball
38:00
Speaker 2: and thought he called Shulis Joe Jackson a criminal. There
38:03
Speaker 2: had to be more to the relationship that's never explored
38:05
Speaker 2: to discovered at all, and we only get the one
38:07
Speaker 2: side of it and it's all solved with a game
38:09
Speaker 2: of catch.
38:10
Speaker 1: And you you're allowed.
38:12
Speaker 2: If you had a tough relationship with your father, then
38:14
Speaker 2: you like you ascribe your your own face. You had
38:16
Speaker 2: a good relationship with your father, You describe It's like
38:18
Speaker 2: you fill in the blanks and the holes in the
38:20
Speaker 2: plot with your own memory bank, put yourself.
38:23
Speaker 1: Into the moment.
38:24
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it is. So it's like it's not a
38:26
Speaker 2: good movie. Then there's this subplot, the whole Moonlight Gram thing.
38:31
Speaker 2: But the subplot also with his wife is like against
38:34
Speaker 2: him to plown down the thing. Then she's for him,
38:36
Speaker 2: and then she goes to a PTA meeting and she's
38:38
Speaker 2: like a sixties radical railing against moms banning books and
38:41
Speaker 2: like that.
38:41
Speaker 1: Well, you have to you have to have a storyline.
38:44
Speaker 1: You have to have a storyline.
38:45
Speaker 2: But the movie opens with the scene like his mother
38:48
Speaker 2: dies in a car crash when he's a little kid
38:50
Speaker 2: and he's so he's ready, but they never like that
38:51
Speaker 2: might have impacted in life, and that might affected the
38:53
Speaker 2: relationship between It never explored. It's got so many holes
38:57
Speaker 2: that you can drive a truck through. It's just a bad,
38:59
Speaker 2: sap be syrupy movie that like let people project their
39:03
Speaker 2: own feelings onto the movie that aren't there.
39:05
Speaker 1: That's it makes you feel something.
39:07
Speaker 4: I mean, look in Bull Durham, Kevin Cospers making out
39:10
Speaker 4: with Sarandon for like five.
39:11
Speaker 1: Minutes at the end of the movie. Didn't need that either.
39:13
Speaker 1: I'm just saying okay.
39:14
Speaker 2: And some of the performances are stiff, and James Earl
39:17
Speaker 2: Jones tells Ray that this whole baseball thing is his
39:20
Speaker 2: penance for what for what?
39:21
Speaker 1: Kids don't disagree with their fathers when they're teenagers. Yeah,
39:24
Speaker 1: everyone right.
39:26
Speaker 3: I gotta be honest though, it's just a crap movie
39:29
Speaker 3: and it's not a baseball skip really, it's just not
39:32
Speaker 3: so I can't I'm I'm bad in the conversation. I
39:36
Speaker 3: don't think I've seen wire to wires, so I probably
39:39
Speaker 3: I probably can't admit it, but I would say the
39:41
Speaker 3: clip is good. The clip of Dak can we have
39:43
Speaker 3: a catch? And the clip of Roger Clemens, given.
39:46
Speaker 4: That line says have a catch, Well, that's the worst
39:49
Speaker 4: thing in the whole movie is no one says have
39:51
Speaker 4: a catch.
39:52
Speaker 3: I thought, oh, I always thought that was the joke
39:54
Speaker 3: of it, and oh maybe, oh not for enough, always
39:56
Speaker 3: thought that was the joke when it comes to like
39:58
Speaker 3: you like to catch continuity.
39:59
Speaker 2: Ears and movies, like someone's carrying a bag and then
40:01
Speaker 2: they turn around they don't have the bag, or they're
40:03
Speaker 2: wearing a different shirt, or Game of Thrones they got
40:05
Speaker 2: a Starbucks cup on the table.
40:07
Speaker 3: I've never done that in movies now I'm doing it
40:09
Speaker 3: with Ai though. But in Field of Dreams, like the
40:12
Speaker 3: sun rises and sets over.
40:14
Speaker 1: The cornfield and left field. Oh that's a good one.
40:17
Speaker 1: That's a good one. Well different angles of the Yeah, yeah,
40:20
Speaker 1: don't that doesn't work that way any event.
40:22
Speaker 3: I do like the They're going to Cooper's town and
40:26
Speaker 3: that's gonna be cool. But it was cool having the
40:28
Speaker 3: Hall of Famers walk out in that ode to the movie.
40:30
Speaker 3: I still think the movie is a steaming pile of dung.
40:33
Speaker 3: But let baseball celebrate it. Let people have fun in
40:35
Speaker 3: Iowa play a big, big league game in Iowa.
40:37
Speaker 1: I'm all about it. We have our we have who's hot,
40:40
Speaker 1: who's not.
40:41
Speaker 2: We got our current electric start of the game, and
40:43
Speaker 2: we're going to power through the last hour of the
40:45
Speaker 2: week running on fumes and caffeine.
40:47
Speaker 1: It's the Huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin,
