• 1:41
  Speaker 6: were conceived?

  Speaker 2: That was a topic on the radio show.
• 1:45
  Speaker 6: We had two choices to continue talking about the marinon bullpen, yeah,
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: or talk about where we were conceived. I believe I
• 1:53
  Speaker 6: was conceived in Sweden. I'm not one thousand percent certain
• 1:56
  Speaker 6: about that.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: See.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: I was thinking like in the back of an oldsmobile.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: But you're talking about right city.
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: I mean, if there's a if there's a foreign country
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: that you can go with first grade, but if it's
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: domestic then uh. And then we were talking about how
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: that's going to be our nickname moving forward.
• 2:13

  Speaker 6: Okay, isn't there a draft tomorrow?
• 2:31

• 2:48
  Speaker 2: There you go. Well, I mean just think about it, man.
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: You got the the start of the Draftmas shopping season,
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: which has already begun. Uh, you got the draft miss Ball,
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: the lighting of the Draftmass Tree han or Manora in
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: the town square, and then of course the popular Draftmas
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: Kids carnival put on me the Downtown Draftmas Association.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: So yeah, this is big.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: I wanted to go big with Draftica. Couldn't just say
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: you just couldn't get the sport sponsorship for it. So
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: we we're now Yeah, a little light on that right now, but.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: We're legal people, man. So I'm not surprised to hear that.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: David Softy Maller is with us and tonight or today
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: this afternoon, does mark the Is it the twenty eighth
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: annual Maller millon mit speed, it's.
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: The twenty eighth We've been running apparently a promo that
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: says twenty seventh, and it's the twenty eighth.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: I see.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing, man.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: When we did this in ninety nine, and I don't
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: remember exactly where we were. I think we were at
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: Ozzie's up there on Queen Anne. I'm not totally sure
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: where we were, but I'm pretty sure it was Ozzie's
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: and it was the ninety nine and I think a
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: lot of people back then looked at that as kind
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: of like a like like a gerbil, you know, in
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: a test tube, like an experiment type of thing, like
• 3:56
  Speaker 6: the pilot, to see if this will work. So nobody
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: really can counted it as the first show, but I'm
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: counting it. I mean, we put in the fricking effort.
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: I'm certainly counting it. So, yeah, that was the That
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: was the Tim Couch year, Donovan McNabb, Achilles Smith, Edrin James,
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: Ricky Williams, Tory Holt, Champ Bailey year, Seahawks draft and
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: a guy that I know you remember very well from
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: his college days out of Saganaw State, Lamar King at
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: number twenty two overall with their first pick they.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Got that year.
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: I believe, yeah, I believe they got that pick from
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: the Cowboys in the Galloway deal. I'm not sure, but anyway, yeah,
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: this is this is twenty eight years.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: Twenty eight years. I'm not sure how old the huge
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: oldest son is, but do we have a match? Here
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: is his name, Dino's pub Millan is that his nickname?
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Could be? Could be?
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: I was wondering, you know, about halfway through the draft,
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: where the hell the millons were?
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: And so you know now we know?
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, we know.
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: Well, I'd like to be conceived of a mock draft. Geez,
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: your parents were horny.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: Holy cow, they really love that Lamar King pick.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Let's celebrate, honey.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Let's go over to our Lamar King sized bed real quick.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: So that's why you're the best.
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: That's why you're the heavyweight champion of Seattle sports talk radio.
• 5:21
  Speaker 6: That's why that's why you get paid the big bucks
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: around here.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Well, a lot of work. I mean you put a
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: ton of work. People don't know, but you put a
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: ton of work into this draft coverage, and not just
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: tomorrow night, but obviously you're our leader on Thursday and
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Friday night as well. So I mean, so you certainly
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: have gotten swept up in the draftingesstry. You better like
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: this stuff because I love it. You got to put
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: a lot of blood, sweat and tears into this.
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: Well here's the thing, man, So as far as the
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: work that goes into it, I mean, Millon's in charge
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: of all of the prospects and breaking down the film
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: and YadA, YadA, YadA. And it's funny because by about
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: Tuesday night before the mocked so in other words, last
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: night we called each other. And this has been becoming
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: more and more of a problem as we get older.
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: I'm like, is your neck hurting you right? Like my
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: neck is hurting me my upper back. I'm staring at
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: a computer screen every night for the last week and
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: a half, and the hardest thing for me is actually
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: these draft team capsules because there's a bunch of information
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: that I'm telling you guys. If I could rip off
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: from like Athlons or some prodraft express dot com website,
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: I would do it. But the stuff that I'm looking for,
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: it's just not out there in one spot. I even
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: tried AI even tried chat GPT or what is it, claude,
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: wherever the hell that thing is.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: I've tried all this stuff and it doesn't do it
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: for me. Man. So yeah, I always tell myself, you
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: know what I'm gonna do.
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna do one team a day for thirty two
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: days leading up to the draft, and then I do
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: none of that and they cram them all in starting
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: on Monday night. So that's what we've been doing the
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: last couple of nights. But yeah, looking forward to it.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: You know, a lot of people I know were down
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: on the draft as far as the quality of the
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: players in this draft, and I get that. It's not
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: a great year to have a bunch of draft picks.
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: So I'm kind of thankful the Hawks have four this
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: year and then what for now? I think, what is
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: it eleven or twelve next year? Whatever it is, So
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: this is actually a good year to not have a
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: lot of draft picks. But the Hawks have a lot
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: of needs, man, I mean, all of a sudden, dude,
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: who were talking about Anthony Bradford like three months ago?
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Is the obvious need? You got to go out and
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: get a right guard?
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: How many times have you heard people say that? Now,
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: maybe the right guard spot might be third or fourth
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: on the list, for God's sake.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: So what's the lowest you're willing to go longest you're
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: willing to wait for a running back in this process.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I mean I'm not gonna just grab one
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: to grab one, right, I mean, if.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: The guy's there, the guy's there, right. I mean, I
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: don't know. There's going to be dudes cut in August.
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: You know, when rosters come out, there's going to be
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: camp casualties, there's going to be trades made. I know,
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: the guy from the Dolphins keeps saying that A Chan's
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: not available, but why do you get sweep in the
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: pot a little bit?
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Make them available? I mean it's you know, April.
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: Twenty second, and the guy hasn't signed a contract for
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: twenty twenty seven.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Ay J. Brown isn't available either.
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he's gonna be a Patriot by Monday. So I
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: don't know, you don't want to flip out too much
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: because you never know. You know, there's other avenues to
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: make this thing better. But god, I would love to
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: see them just bring in a body for another just
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: for competition.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, in the.
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: Higher they draft that guy if it's priced at thirty two,
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: or maybe Mike Washington in the second or third round.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: Maybe Jonah Coleman. Late Friday, early Saturday, whatever. A guy
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: like that, that guy is gonna be. We are never
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: going to drool this much over a third or a
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: late round running back, then we will if they take
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: a guy this weekend, because whoever that guy is, even
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: if he's in the sixth round, if they trade down
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: to the whatever, right wherever that dude's taken, they're like,
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: oh God, they've got a running back, you know, and
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: he's gonna automatically be like the savior of that running
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: back room. And that's probably gonna be a little unfair.
• 8:54
  Speaker 6: So we're gonna just drool way more over a running
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: back taken this year, no matter what round he's taken
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: in than any other one the Seahawks have ever selected.
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: I remember when they drafted Chris Carson in the seventh round,
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: we were like, whatever, its the seventh round draft pick.
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: But if they take a running back in the seventh
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: round now, and that's the only running back they take
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: in this year's draft, that guy, the spotlight on that
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: guy will be brighter than any other seventh round running
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: back they've ever drafted in franchise history.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he'll be in the mix, no doubt about it.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Do you have a special pick? I mean do you
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: have anybody circled, anybody in mind, regardless of position, that
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: you want Seahawks to come away with.
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, guys, I gotta be honest with you, man,
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: I don't know what it is, but I've been staring
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: at this bazantest.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Kid, the guard at A and M for a while.
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: I just think, and I've always thought this, that it's
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: all about the line of scrimmage.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: I mean the Huskies when they went to the National
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: Championship Game, they did it with the best offensive line
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: in football. Seahawks when they won their first NFC championship
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: did it with the best offensive line in football twenty thirteen.
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: People kind of tend to forget, and you know, maybe
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: it wasn't worthy of it, but that twenty thirteen offensive
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: line was the highest paid offensive line in the NFL.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: So I think you've got a shot here.
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: With Charles Cross and Abe Lucas signed, Gray's Abels got
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: at minimum four years left if you include the fifth
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: year option. You found something, I think, and settle down
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: the center spot in Jalen Sundale. If you can grab
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: a guard and I'm not even talking about at thirty two,
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: maybe you move down and get this guy. Maybe somebody
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: moves up for a Ty Simpson or whatever, and you
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: find yourself early second round, I think a bizontest at
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: right guard. Can you just imagine what that offensive line
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: could look like for the next three or four years
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: and how much you could get away with with a
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: line like that.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: I love the idea of just continuing to pound the
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: offensive line. But I also love the idea of continuing
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: just to give Mike McDonald as many missiles as he
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: needs on defense.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 10:54
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know about you, guys, I think
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: the best thing this team does right now is Mike
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: McDonald's brain. Yeah, I three, it's the most valuable thing.
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: If they just keep feeding that brain with you know,
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: creatine and andro and you know whatever steroid fish paralyzer
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: you can find. Just do it, man, give that guy
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: as many freaking bullets as he can fire on defense.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: I was going to ask, but I think you just
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: answered it. I mean, when I got here, the common
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: phrase around draft time and John, we trust because when
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: I got here, you're coming off two Soaper Bowl appearances.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: John Schneiders had built the team around just some great
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: years of drafting, and then things got ale leverage.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, over the course of not just a couple of years,
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: but for most of the time I was here, And
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: now in the last three years, he's just been on fire,
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: maybe even more so than he was back in the day.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: And I was going to ask you, what do you
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: credit that to? And I think you already answered it,
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: and I agree with you. I think it's Mike McDonald.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: I think it's Mike pairing with John and them seeing
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: eye to why that has made up a Super Bowl
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: champion before we were the Seahawks are supposed to be
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: and could make them again a couple more times here
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: in the next couple of years.
• 12:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I just again, I mean, it's the scheme, right.
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: I mean, we've had games where there's been a lot
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: of guys out and it didn't matter. I Mean, the
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: one game that they really caught up to him was
• 12:18
  Speaker 6: the Tampa game, and they scored three four points of
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: that game they probably should have won for God's sakes, right,
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: So I don't know, man, I just think the more
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: you like, I remember when the Seahawks drafted Lawrence Jackson,
• 12:30
  Speaker 6: not Lauren Jackson, not the storm player, Lawrence Jackson out
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: of USC and they had Grant Wistrom and they had
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: Bryce Fisher. This is coming off the Super Bowl year,
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: and I remember people say, what are we doing that for?
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: You know, we got Bryson Grant. Well, you need depth
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: and you need rotation, and there's no position on the
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: football team that rotates more than the defensive line. And
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: you got Mike Comgrin, who's a phenomenal play coler on offense.
• 12:56
  Speaker 6: So you have his brain, but keep giving the defense
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: more more b to drop on people. I think it's
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: just that philosophy. Like you guys figure out who the
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: player is, right, I don't care. You're the one watching
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: the film, you're the one doing the meetings, you're the
• 13:09
  Speaker 6: one going to the combine, you're the one doing the scouting.
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: To me, it's about the philosophy, right, Like the philosophy
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: of just making this offensive line as.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Badass as you can.
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: The philosophy of giving yourself eight to nine guys deep
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: on your defensive line like we had in twenty thirteen
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: when they had that phenomenal rotation and Cliff Avril and
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: you know, guys like that Michael Bennett were backups on
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: that football team, right. So that's the philosophy for me,
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: go out and find the players that you've put the
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: work in that you trust to be Seahawks. But the
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: philosophy is what I'm looking at today or tomorrow. Obviously,
• 13:44
  Speaker 6: running back room needs some help. I think all of
• 13:46
  Speaker 6: us would pass out if we woke up in week
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: one and you had Cam Akers Jacartia, right, Zach Sharboney
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: coming off the knee, who's not even going to be
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: ready by week one?
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Emmanuel Wilson from Green Bay.
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: If that's your running back room, I mean, that is
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: like a that's like a bottom eighth running back room
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: in the NFL.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: Terrible on paper. So that's got to be addressed.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Obviously, that's I mean, you're playing with house money right
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: now a little.
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: Bit, yeah, or there's no differ, or you can argue
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: that the opportunity to go back to back doesn't come
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: along very off for sure.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: But you bet a pounce.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: I mean, I just saw they just did a segment
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: in the television that this whatever show was on, and
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: it was who needs to have a great draft, And
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I'm like, right, the Seahawks aren't anywhere near that list,
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: right because they're so sound. There's so you know, a
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: young team that's already won a Super Bowl, and it's
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: a little bit ahead of schedule. But this is the
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: time to get fat, time to get greedy, time to like,
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: you know, build up your stores for you know, some
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: unforeseen event that happens in the next couple of years.
• 14:50
  Speaker 6: YEA, well, that's why I'd go after each in So
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: I've been saying that on the air for weeks.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Now that I do it, I mean, I would.
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: I would offer him thirty two and you know, maybe
• 14:59
  Speaker 6: throwing stocking stuff for next year with all the kicks
• 15:02
  Speaker 6: you got next season, and go get the guy.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it's like all the dudes that
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: are out right now.
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: And again we're talking about the roster in April versus
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: the roster in September.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: I get it.
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: But imagine if you woke up tomorrow and you played
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: the Super Bowl and the injury report came out and
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: Reek wol and Zach Sharbonne, Kenny Walker, boy A, Mafy,
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: Kobe Bryant, We're all inactive.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd be.
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: Like, what the hell? Yeah exactly, Yeah, And that's what
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: you're dealing with today. So how much of that, how
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: much of those little holes that we just talked about
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: that dropping talent whatever. How much of that can they
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: rectify between now and really the end of the trade deadline?
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: I would think in like October, right, how much of
• 15:38
  Speaker 6: that can they rectify between now and the stretch run
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: of the NFL season? How much of that can they
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: rectify between now and September? And today's the first step?
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Man?
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: How tomorrow? How keep thinking today's the real draft?
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: By the way, for some reason, No, it's the Maler
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: Millon mocktra the real draft. In a lot of people's hearts, it.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Is spider tunes into getting the Intel.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, every day writes down everything. Nice say, how
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: much of an eye do you keep on the UDUB
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: prospect are? Once they leave Washington? It's all about Seahawks
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: versus everybody else.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of about that, you know.
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: I mean, I I don't know, man, I mean, I'm
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: more of a wayor here kind of guy, you know.
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: And every now and then there's people that kind of
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: transcend that you just really want to root hard for
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: at the next level. The bigger impact they have at Washington,
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: I think it's natural to you know, kind of be
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: bigger fans of them when they play in the NFL.
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: All those dudes in twenty three, including Petix and at
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: Dounza and Polk and McMillan and Trice and Fatanu and
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: rosen Hosen, all those guys that came off that football team,
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: you kind of tend to gravitate more towards them because
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: they did more for you, right, I mean, they just
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: they just gave you more memories. They gave you, they
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: gave you a better, you know, experience as a fan
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: because they won more football games. But you know, Denzel Boston,
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: local guy from Emerald Ridge, probably gonna be the first
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: Husky and I think the Eagles should go after him.
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: I mean that's with Aj Brown probably gone. I know
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: they went out and got a bunch of wide receivers
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: in free agency. They got Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore.
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: They traded for a Dontavian Wix obviously from Green Bay.
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: But that that kind of feels like right in a wheelhouse.
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: I mean, if he's available at twenty three, that doesn't
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: feel like stretching at all. I would not be surprised
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: if Philadelphia made a run because they got a need
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: for a wide receiver on a pretty good football team.
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: Imagine Denzel Boston going to that team, getting to play
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: with DeVonta Smith on already made team that's ready to
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: win today.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: That's a great, great spot for him.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, that's where I've got him. Mockt A got
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: my mock out today.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: I'm locking too.
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just wrote it mocking. We're all mocking it up.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna mock you.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: What is your Hurricane favorite you know, NFL draft coverage
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: memory or Maler Millon mock draft memory that you have.
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: Yes, yes, there was a guy what was his name?
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: Billy Price? Old Billy Price. Price went to the Bengals,
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: I believe in the Mahlert Millen mock draft out of
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: Ohio State. And I remember doing the mock draft with
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: Hugh and whoever the GM was that day. Whatever listener,
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: lucky listener that drafted Billy Price in the mock draft. Uh,
• 18:25
  Speaker 6: he got crucified by Hugh Millon on the air, Ripped apart,
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: torn to shreds, blown away like the Death Star. I
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: didn't even exist after Hugh was done with him. Guess
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: what the Bengals did the very next day drafted Billy Price.
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: Drafted Billy Price. That's gonna happen every now and then.
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: I think Millan, I don't remember exactly, and I'm sure
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: I'll get this wrong. I think Millan may have sitt
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: on the air like I've never even heard of this guy,
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: and then he went out and drafted him in the
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: first round the next day. So we have had picks
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: that have been made by general managers of the mock
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: draft that nobody's ever heard of, like the classic major
• 19:08
  Speaker 6: league line. I think this guy's here is dead, cross
• 19:11
  Speaker 6: him off, then, I mean, that does happen where people
• 19:14
  Speaker 6: just they got ahold of a draft preview magazine from
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: like four years ago. They just grabbed the wrong one
• 19:20
  Speaker 6: and they're doing research from like the twenty twenty two draft,
• 19:23
  Speaker 6: not the twenty sixth drafts.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: So yeah, that was that was a fun one. When
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: the Bengals drafted Billy Price.
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: Man, I love that Mike Brown's grandson showed up at
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: the Maler Millon mock draft had inside information on what
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: the banks were going to do. That's right, and you
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: called him an idiot.
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: Twenty eighteen first round, twenty first overall, and the Maler
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: Millon mock Draft we select Billy Price.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: That's just dumb.
• 19:45
  Speaker 6: The next day, the Bengals take Billy Price. Awesome, so good.
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: And what are you doing this afternoon?
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: B Uh, Well, I've got to go to your nap
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: car shopping first and then nap. But yeah, I mean
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: lay you swing on over. We need to go to
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: the Malar millon mock draft. Yeah, Deno's pub.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: Come on over and hang out with us.
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: Commissioner Fane will be there when he's not talking to
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: his wife in Alaska.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: And because of those phone calls, they have two great kids.
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: He'll be there today at three o'clock.
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: You know, it's been one hundred and fifty years since
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: the first phone.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: And he's also got his first pager that he had
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: with a AT and T. He still uses that today.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: By the way, you can see him. He'll be there.
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: Miller will be there. I'll be there. Jackson Felts. We're
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: letting Jackson out of his cage today and he's going
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: to come by Dinos at three o'clock this afternoon to
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: run the mock draft.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: He's very excited.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: I want at least one Alaskan phone sex story if
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: I'm showing up.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, how do you think he had two great kids?
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: I don't think that's how that works.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: It's like an appetizer pre game.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: All right, Well we are such fun, have a blast today.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: And if I don't, what if it's just miserable and
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: I hate it?
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: Well, oh I guess no, don't hide it, just tell us,
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: tell us your feelings.
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: Hey, I'll have a better day if you and actually
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: come by Dino's. Okay, I want to see you too.
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: I'm not going to be there.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: I was going to let you know proof that you
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: too actually exist.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: I'd like to make you think I'm going to show up.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I want to be taken with fourth overall pick.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'll do that for it.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: Yes, I want to go to the Tennessee Titans.
• 21:19
  Speaker 6: Is that your dream? To play for Robert Salah? Yeah,
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: and play running back for the time you know the
• 21:23
  Speaker 6: Jets to not have an interception last year?
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know that. This morning.
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: What kind of stuff you find out? Why you do
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: these stupid draft capsules? Unbelievable?
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: All right, man, well we've we're leaving everything in good
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: Hay and so have fun and we will talk to
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: you soon. Happy draft, miss Thank you very much, Thank
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: you for being in the spirit. David Softy Mall joining
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: us right here on Chuck and Buck maler millon Mock
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: draftnos Pub and Renton today starting at three o'clock. The
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: whole gang will be there. Coming up next, ABC's of
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: the M's Coming Your Way on Sports Radio ninety three
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: point three kh A r F M.
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: We did get some texts on it, yeah, other it
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: have heard of it, right, some looked it up. I believe, Okay,
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: it didn't.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: Maybe it wasn't popular in the Pacific Northwest.
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: I don't think it must have been. But your I
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: think they agreed that your version was probably better.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Is that right than the original? Yeah? You know, yeah,
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: I was told that's very kind of you. That's impossible.
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know it's a hit single.
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: You're just going to keep my mouth shut. I like
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: your version the best.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Okay. Well, anyway, it is the day before the night
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: before draft, miss, so it's been a pretty heavy show.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: Tomorrow's will be a heavy show as well. But we're
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: not forgetting about how miserable we are over our baseball team.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: How can I go another segment without talking about that?
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Oh yay? I was thinking I was hoping we were
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: just like because we were in the draft, miss spirit.
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: We were just thinking of things that made us happy.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: Oh no, no, yeah, we got time to be miserable.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, who doesn't squeeze it in, let's do it.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: ABC the MS the alphabet takes us through a few
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: different segment topics a Mariner related topics, and we are
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: at the letter VV is for versus. Now. Brendan Donovan's
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: not available to us right now. I mean he just
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: had that goofy landing and then has never really been
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: right since. But he's been good. We like Brendan Donovan, right,
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, of all the guys this year offensively we're
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: playing every day, he's probably been the most consistent on
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: our team. Yeah.
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: I think he's given me the most happy times as
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: a Marinags fan.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Him and Luke Rayley three or four batting average. He's
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: at three home runs, nine fifty four ops. He's been good.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: And yes, there was an incident. It's not like he's
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: injury prone. There was an incident that obviously very awkward,
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: and it created an injury, and then he's been trying
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: to play through that and it might have created another injury.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: So Brendan Donovan, through no fault of his own, is
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: on the injury list right now. But when he's been
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: in the lineup, he's been a productive member, maybe the
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: most productive member of this team. That said, Brendan Donovan
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: was the offseason acquisition versus Muna Taka Morikami, who is
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: turning into the monster that a lot of people thought
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: he could be. But everybody was so worried about his
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: swing and miss that a lot of team, well pretty
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: much every team passed on him. I mean, he made
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: sixteen million dollars salary right now, and that's huge money.
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: But a lot of people thought, oh, the next Japanese phenom.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: He's gonna get thirty thirty five million dollars to come
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: over here. He's a proven commodity there. But people thought
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: his bat was too slow, didn't have a position, and
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: all he could do was hit home runs. Well, turns
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: out all you do is hit home runs. It's not
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: such a bad thing. It's like Chris Carter. Oh he
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: does is score touchdowns.
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: Well that's not bad.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: It's not a bad thing to do all the time. Well,
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: he's got nine runs this year, he's got an ops
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: of nearly a thousand. I don't know why teams weren't
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: more interested in him. I don't know why the Mariners
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: weren't interested in him. Now, good pivot to Brendan Donovan,
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: but you did have to give up a couple of
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: good prospects for that guy. Meanwhile, Morikami's you know, has
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: hit nine home runs already this season and has a
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: thousand ops. Might have been rather interesting, might have been
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: able to carry us for a little while. I mean,
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: who knows if he would add the same success lighting
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: doors and the whatnot in a Seattle uniform. But man,
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: I really did like the idea of that, you know,
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: row of Raleigh Rodriguez. Morikamie would have been Naylor Rose arena.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: But I guess we'll never know. W is for Wilson.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: Dan Wilson's been coming under a lot of heat so
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: far this season, and I think it's deserved. Look, I
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: think Dan Wilson by the end of last season had
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: kind of ironed things out, but he was also managing
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: just to win baseball games, and in the beginning of
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: the year, you are managing more than that. You are
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: managing you know, health, you are managing workload, You are
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: managing what individual pitchers particularly are capable of. And so
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: Dan Wilson has had a lot more to manage at
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: the beginning of the year, and frankly, I think it's
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: just a little too much for him because this is
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: two years in a row that I think he struggled
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: with the exact same things, and again another versus not
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: to compare and contrast. I thought it was time for
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Scott's service to go. But when? But Scott Servis's strength
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: was his managing of the bullpen, and it seems to
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: be Dan Wilson's weakness, at least in the first half
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: of the season. But it's it feels like it's been
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: a problem this year, and I realized that he has
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: more information and more data than what we have as
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: armchair managers ourselves. But this isn't really about information and data.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: This is about whether it comes from on high or
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: whether you're doing it yourself. You are, you have set
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: a lot of rules for this beginning of the year
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: that you are forcing yourself to follow. We don't let
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: relief pitchers finish an inning and then start another inning.
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: We don't let them get up twice. We don't let
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: them pitch on three straight days. Okay, some we don't
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: even like for them to pitch on back to back days,
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: and so you start implementing all of these rules in place,
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: and then you start cheating on those rules by Matt
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: Brash is coming in to get somebody out of a jam,
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: and yet we only use them for three pitches in
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: one out and then his day is done. Yeah, and
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: then you so you just burned up some really precious
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: outs that you need to get right now with all
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: these rules that you have in place. So he, to me,
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: Dan is really struggling with managing because I think he
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: does just fine if you just tell him, go win
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: the game. But if you have to tell him, go
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: win the game, but it's probably more important that you
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: keep these guys on their regiment and their routine, so
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: let's air on the side of that. Then he doesn't
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: do well at that. I think he's really struggled at
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: that each of the last two starts of the season
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: for the Mariners. And I don't know what to tell you.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, I guess this team has been in facing
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: worse situations in the last few years. They were in
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: worse situations just a year ago, and they survived them.
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: And not only did this survive them, they went on
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: to have a very successful season under Dan Wilson the manager.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: So I guess I'm just going to trust that it
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: will iron out and that you're still in the race.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: And then by the second half, when you don't have
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: to worry that Munno's pitched fourteen pitches yesterday he was
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: always most to pitch twelve, then then maybe he can
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: he can start relaxing and get into mode. But right
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: now it just feels like he doesn't do a very
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: good job managing all of that stuff.
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: No, and it doesn't seem that with the bullpen in
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: the way that they are having him manage it, that
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: there's any room for a gut feeling or something other
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: than all the numbers and rules they've set in place.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Well, and that leads us right into the next letter,
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: which is exex's for ex Mariner because Casey Lawrence is
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: now or seen me, Casey Legumina is now an ex Mariner,
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: and I don't I didn't like Casey Legumine. I didn't
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: like him last year. Bucky and I had a couple
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: of uncomfortable conversations about Legumina and Trent Thornton, and I
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: think this team really does favor these sweeper pitchers who
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: don't have anything else. So if they don't their sweeper,
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: they don't really have anything else to go to. They
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: just get hammered, and so I don't I never really
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: liked him, but every team has to have a couple
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: of guys that can wear it. You know, I'm not
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: saying Casey Legumina should have been off the roster, even
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: though I don't even like him. I think the bigger
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: problem was was the way that you used him twenty
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: five games into the season. He was just in way
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: too many high leverage situations and he's not good enough
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: for that. So I didn't you know, I went off
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: on Legamina yesterday, but more so on the way that
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: he's being used than the actual pitcher. I think he
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: could be a major league pitcher. I didn't think that
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: the answer was get rid of him. I thought the
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: answer should have been clear. We got to stop using
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: him in high leverage situations, and we got to do
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: a better job of managing what outs we get out
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: of our bullpen so that we aren't in a tie
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: game in the eighth inning and we've got to go
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: to our worst reliever.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: Right, you know, that would be the smart way to
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: do it right, I would think, but it doesn't seem
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: to be the way they like to do it, and
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: that makes me worried.
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: Well, that goes back to Dan mismanaging the bullpen and outs,
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: Like if you're going to work, if you've got to
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: get so many outs during the course of a game,
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: and then you're going to take out a starting pitcher
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: after eighty five pitches, and then you're going to go
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: to another pitcher that gets you out of the inning,
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: and then he only throws four, but now he's been
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: made unavailable for the next day. Then for then you've
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: got to be more precious about getting your outs because
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: they're not overused, they're not overtaxed. I mean, the statistics
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: tell you they have the three and the last time
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: I checked it might have changed. They're third in baseball
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: and the fewest relief pitcher innings in the entire sport.
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: So they're not being overused, they're being misused, and and
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: they're being taken out or put put in late or
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: taken out early, however you want to look at it.
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: But you have put yourself in the position to have
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: to go to Wilcox and Legumina in high leverage situations
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: which they should have never. I mean, we've got five
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: good quality relievers. Not a lot of teams have that.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: And I saw four guys in Tacoma Friday night. I
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: don't know if I mentioned this on the air yesterday
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: or off the air with Anders yesterday. I did the
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: game on Friday in Tacoma. I saw four relievers that
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: were they're better, have better stuff than Legumina and Wilcox. Yeah,
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: and yet you know, so there's some others on the way,
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: and maybe Alex Hoppy is going to be one of them.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: But I didn't think that the punishment for Legumina should
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: be your off the team. I thought the punishment should
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: be in Dan, manage your bullpen better so that we
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: don't end up having to use Legumina against the heart
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: of the order in a tie game in the eighth inning.
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: And it feels like that should have been done a
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago, Like it just kept being the
• 33:04
  Speaker 5: same issue, it seemed like, which that's why I couldn't.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: I mean, you do it once, okay, then have the
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: conversation and then happen occasional, Yeah, but to have it
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: repeatedly happen, right, it doesn't make sense, all right?
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: One last thing coming your way next Sports Radio ninety

• 33:55
  Speaker 5: Yes, someone sent a link, but I just want I
• 33:57
  Speaker 5: don't want anything to ruin that. I just want that.
• 34:00
  Speaker 8: That's all I want. The Peter Pan Carollers, well that
• 34:06
  Speaker 8: sounds about right. The Caro Leier singers and orchestra artists.
• 34:11
  Speaker 8: That's the artist, the Caroler singers and orchestra.
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: I'm calling it Chucks Draftmas song.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: It's off the album the hit album Santa Claus Is
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: Coming to Town.
• 34:21
  Speaker 5: Obviously, which we obviously.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: Owned as a family because that's where we heard the song.
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: But do they have in their version blue.
• 34:33
  Speaker 8: No?
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: I don't think so. Yeah.
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: See that's what makes years better.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's you know that, only that Bobby McFerrin quality,
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: that talent.
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you got to make your own noises.
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: I beat my chest for drums.
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: That's right.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: All right, here we are one last thing on this
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: day before the night before Draftmas. What do you got
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: back there?
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: Okay? So obviously we all know the World Cup is
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: coming to the US this summer, and I've been reading
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: lately a lot about transportation and what different cities are
• 35:01
  Speaker 5: going to be doing in order to get fans to
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: and from the games. And I was reading, so I think,
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: what is it the they said? I think it's the
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: in Boston and New York. I think there's games in
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: New Jersey. They're looking at charging people one hundred or
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty dollars to ride the train in
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: for the game. The train, I think normally costs three
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: dollars for that ride, and they are having three hundred
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: dollars parking for the games in LA Meanwhile, in Philadelphia,
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: this is what my this is who I want to
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: shout out. Shout out to Philadelphia. They are charging fans
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: the normal two dollars and ninety cent ride into the
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: games and letting them ride home for free.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: What is it about? Is it about growing to yeh.
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: It's about trying to make as much money as possible
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: for hosting the games.
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: Price gouch because they're not Their tickets aren't exactly I
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: don't think they're sold out here.
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: Well no, and tickets aren't cheap, and hotels aren't going
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: to be cheap. I mean they're already going to be.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: They're going to be spending money in your city. They're
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: going to your restaurants, they're standing in your hotels, even
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: just riding the transportation. And I don't know what. I
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: haven't heard anything about Seattle's plan train wise, or if
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: they're trying to raise prices or anything like that. But
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: I would just encourage Seattle to be more like Philadelphia
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: because you just want the fans to be able to
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: get there and back castle free. They're already going to
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: be on busy enough trains, dealing with long lines things
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: like that, and they've already spent money everywhere, So just
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: let them have the transportation that you have built here
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: and encouraged everyone to use.
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm not naive, I'm not gullible. I get it's
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: all about money, or at least ninety ninety percent of
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: it is about money, but at least ten percent of
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: it has to be about growing the game, doesn't it not,
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: So something this big has to be about not just
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: the most filthy rich people can attend the event to
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: have some kids there that you would like to have
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: some lower income people there, that you would like to
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: have some average joes there as well to experience that
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: doesn't that feed the game? Doesn't that promote the game
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: as opposed to just people who may or may not
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: like it, who are just being there because it's the
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: thing to do and I have money to burn.
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that is what is going to be
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: a lot of it, and I'm pretty sure so I
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: don't know. Just Philadelphia clearly doing it right by not
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: trying to price gouge people, and I would encourage others
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: to do the same.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: Good job. Yeah, you're monstrous jerks, but you don't price.
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: Right exactly, And that's what we're saying.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: I'm going to.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: Close with this speaking of you know, shame on yous
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: Hugh Mellen yesterday, and I think he was being awfully
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: critical of all the mock drafters out there, saying there
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: are way too many mock drafts, and that anybody with
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: a pulse can do a mock draft. These days, I
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: will say not enough mock drafting goes on at this
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: time of the year.
• 38:00
  Speaker 5: More.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: I just finished my updated mock and just today that
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: I feel great.
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: About it, submits it for our show since now we
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: have to submit those.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't understand, like, okay, we allow at
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: NCAA tournament time, anybody in the world to fill out
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: a bracket and they have fun doing it, even if
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: they don't even know how to spell basketball, even if
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: they've never watched a basketball game. You tell them it's fun.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: It's just you know, five dollars, just fill this out.
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: You can flip a coin and pick a team, right,
• 38:31
  Speaker 5: you can pick.
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: It by mascots or whatever you're and it's fun.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: Is it not fun? Yeah?
• 38:37
  Speaker 5: I think so.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: How is mock drafting any different than that? I mean,
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: we actually follow college football in the NFL. Most people
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: don't even follow college basketball, that's the truth anymore, especially
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: you know, in an office setting, and that's fun for everybody.
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: I think everybody should be filling out mock drafts. We
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: actually have a little bit of information to go behind
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: those listening right now. Watch all a lot understand the
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: NFL Draft and who's in it, a lot more than
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: they understand which college basketball teams are better, just because
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: I don't put a one by them that's by them,
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: you know. So I say more mocking. As a matter
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: of fact, there's not too much mocking out there. There's
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: just not enough mocking, not nearly enough mocking. I think
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: that I should go home today and the Unicorn should
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: have had her mock draft ready that we could go
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: over over dinner time.
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: I would love it if she had that ready for you.
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't hold you, Brett.
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: I'm not gonna, but.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: So I to share my mock tomorrow and I'm gonna
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: listen to the Miller Maler millon mock draft tonight.
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah do it. I'm gonna listen, and I'm gonna go
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: over more mocks tomorrow.
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, I'm gonna put on a smock to mock
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: because I'm wanna get the mock.
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: All over me, mock the f out of it.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: Coming up next, Greg Bell, He's got a mock out,
